Hospital water off on Sunday over Legionella

Tamara Timothy reports
Guernsey's Princess Elizabeth Hospital will turn off the water supply for an eight-hour period on Sunday because it has been hit by an outbreak of the bacteria that causes Legionnaire's Disease.
The Legionella bacteria was discovered in the water supply during routine checks, but no patients or staff have fallen ill, though doctors and nurses have been placed on alert.
All storage tanks will be drained, cleaned and disinfected, and between 10am and 6pm on Sunday and chlorinated water flushed through the system before fresh water introduced.
Sterile water is being supplied for use in medical procedures and bottled water for drinking. Food will continue to be served, with hot food for patients and pre-packaged food for staff and visitors. Hot drinks will continue to be available on the wards.
But visitors are being asked to bring their own liquid refreshments where possible.
Toilet facilities will be in short supply and, while patient facilities will be retained as normal, porta-loos will be set up around the PEH grounds for staff and visitors.
Legionella causes Legionaire's Disease, which is a potentially fatal form of pneumonia.
People catch the water-born disease by inhaling small droplets of water suspended in the air, which contain the bacteria. It is most commonly found in water systems like domestic hot water systems, industrial cooling water apparatus adn industrial cooling towers. It can also develop in large air conditioning systems, fountains, domestic cold water, and swimming pools.
HSSD director of corporate services Richard Evans said: "Although the level of Legionella in the PEH water supply is above what is normally acceptable it still represents only a minimal risk to health and safety and is safe to drink. We are carrying out a carefully integrated plan to decontaminate the hospitals water system."

Legionella, hyper-chlorination
Report Abuse
Posted By: kenneth on 13-Jan-2012
You do realize that flushing chlorinated water twice in a 2 week period will not rid your system of bacteria right? legionella lives underneath the bio-film that surrounds the pipe wall in a plumbing system, all your doing with hyper-chlorinating the water is to basically sunburn the bacteria that is resting on the top of the bio-film, while everything else that's underneath the bio-film is still thriving. there are better ways to control legionella in a recirculating hot water system. for more information please refer to coppersilver.com and just an fyi, after a super heat and flush and hyper-chlorination your contamination levels can come back within as soon as one week.

Call me a sceptic if you like but what`s the odds that the HSSD come out with:- "This sort of thing will happen now and then when our budget is so restricted", or something to that effect.

Is There a Difference Between High-speed Internet and Broadband
I was talking with a friend on-line recently. He's been trying to convince his father to purchase high-speed internet. During our discussion the question "What's the difference between High-speed internet and Broadband?" came up. It got me thinking, when you see phone companies advertising DSL they usually do refer to it as High-speed Internet. On the other hand when you see cable companies advertising their high-speed internet, they usually refer to it as Broadband. Aside from the technical scientific and dictionary definitions of these words I would like to take a moment to clarify the muddied waters.
He, probably like a lot of you, thought there may be a difference in the two services. It's a logical conclusion. They go by different names, they must be different right? Let's examine what they both are. DSL and Cable Internet access both offer an "always-on" connection to the internet. They both provide speeds greater than any you'll ever see on a dial-up connection. They both allow you to be on the internet and on the phone at the same time. They both run somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 clams a month. They both require you to purchase, or lease in some cases, an additional modem device in order to receive the service. They both offer the promise of a better, faster internet where music, movies, tv shows, digital phone, lightening fast downloads, file sharing, instant messaging, access to a wealth of information and financial data is suddenly at your fingertips. You can have several things going all at once all thanks to your high-speed er, uh, broadband internet connection. They also both make you more vulnerable to viruses, spyware, and attacks.
So, what's the difference between High-speed and Broadband? Well, not much. The terms are simply, as far as the consumer(you) is concerned, a marketing technique. It's a method to sell you a service. It's a tactic to sound superior to the competition. So which one actually sounds better? Your guess is as good as mine. To me, they're interchangeable. I will use the term high-speed in one sentence and the term broadband in another.
Well, that's great mister Deconfuser man, but that still doesn't help me make my decision as to which is better. Ah, but it does. As far as service and speed go, they're basically the same. Virtually identical. So you see, the decision simply boils down to price. Which one is the best use of your dollar? I can't answer that question for you, but I can give you some information to help you decide which is worth the expense.
When purchasing high-speed broadband internet access look for the speed to price comparisons. The more speed or "pipe" you buy the more it's going to cost you. Most offer a lite or starter package that's still faster than dial-up but isn't their top speed offering. This is usually fine for emails, chat, paying bills and such. If you have kids or need the connection for work or business then you're going to want the best money can buy. Kids love downloading looooots of things off the internet, and will let you know very quickly that your family's connection is well…slow Mom. So here you go, a modem's top speed is 56Kbs that's 56 kilobytes/second which is 56,000 bytes/second. The fastest broadband connection around here that I know of is 3Mbs, or 3 mega-bytes/second, or 3,000,000 bytes/second.
I hope this helps you to understand the lack of difference between broadband and high-speed internet. I also hope it helps in determining where you want to spend your money.
A shameless plug here: I'll be offering some classes over at Wilkes Community College on Spyware, how to know you've been infected, removal, and protection this summer. Check out their website or call Wesley Poplin in Continuing Education 336.838.6207 for more information.

TEAMS: Cleveland Cavaliers, Washington Wizards
Annoying in a bad way? I would say that in a good way. Who said it? Man or woman? Did he ever play the game of basketball? I don't think so. Saying that about Andy to me is a sign of respect. His game is annoying? I think it is for guys who have to guard him, yeah. You know you're not going to get a day off. The shot goes up, he's coming, both ends of the floor. So if I'm an opponent playing against him, yeah, he can be annoying because I've got to worry about him every second that I'm on the floor. From a coaching standpoint, you almost got to defensive plan against him. Sometimes you need a guy and a half to block him out every single time. I don't know who said it. I don't really care. But he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about…tell him I said that. – Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott, Thursday, when discussing the recent criticism of center Anderson Varejao's overall game being labled as "annoying." In the Cavaliers' Opening Night win over the Washington Wizards, Varejao amassed a career-high 23 rebounds to go with nine points and team-high nine assists. [Related: Waiting on Dion Waiters]

Two people have been arrested and charged after an investigation into human trafficking of minors for sex.
Olivia Lara, 38, is charged with 3 counts of Trafficking in Persons Under the Age of 18 for Sexual Servitude and 3 counts of Deriving Support from a Minor Prostitute.
Feliciano Ramirez, 30, was also arraigned and charged with Rape of Child and Sex for a Fee. They were arraigned this morning in Fall River District Court.
Both Lara and Ramirez pleaded not guilty at the arraignment. Bail was set at $100,000 cash for Lara and at $25,000 cash for Ramirez. They are due back in Fall River District Court on February 12 for a probable cause hearing.
After a tip back in December, police were able to identify that Lara, several minor victims, and adult male customers were allegedly involved in a human trafficking scheme.
Police believe Lara would meet with adult male patrons inside of a Fall River bar and arrange for them to have sex for a fee with the minor victims
Authorities allege that Ramirez was one of the male customers who engaged in sexual acts with one of the minor victims in his vehicle in exchange for payment.
The investigation is still ongoing.

"To be allowed a slight tangent for a moment, the original design goal for mastery was to keep it fairly constrained as a stat in order to prevent it from becoming "the best" stat to stack."
And that is where we have our unfortunate problem. Tanks NEED to stack mastery, much too much in my opinion, and many other specs are stacking it as their second priority. Blizzard can completely redesign the Mastery bonus if they want to, they already have for Holy paladins and druids are getting theirs redone in 4.2. I don't see how stacking Mastery can be news to the dev team, because there's always been a stat that each spec wants to stack.
Now, I have Shadow priests, and I have warlocks, and they most certainly do not feel like the same class. Yes, dots and channeled spells, I get it, but as you pointed out Destro feels very much like a mage. What about Balance druids and mages? They cast direct spells, they have massive aoe, they have snares, but one uses arcane and frost, the other nature. There is much less difference between Balance and mage than there is Shadow priest and warlock. So why take away some choice from warlocks?
Again, redesign of the Mastery could change things if Blizzard doesn't want warlocks to solely use Drain Life. I'm sure there's a way that the spells could be changed so that one would cast Shadow Bolt sometimes, and then DL on others. Locking out an entire spell from the rotation because "it's too powerful" go against everything they have been saying about wanting to give players a choice.

Chick Lit
By Stacey Levin
As a new blogger to the site, I'd like to share my story of how I got hooked on reading comics. Lots of women read them, some are starting to write and draw them, but the ladies still aren't fully represented in the genre. Hopefully I can be a tiny voice for the chicks. Yo, where my ladies at? Get your hands up!
Ok, so it's not like I'd never read a comic book before in my life. It had just been a while. Fine, a really long while since I last read the odd issue of "Archie," "Richie Rich," "Star Wars" and "Wonder Woman." Those were a few titles I frequented when I was a kid. But since then, not so much other than the occasional "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" book when I was at work.
So when I met Jason, fellow blogger, my boyfriend and writing partner, and he suggested I get back into reading them, I thought, why not? I mean, how much could I have possibly missed? Um, hello? Was I living under a rock? Apparently so. A really big honking rock the size of Rhode Island. Yeah, my bad. Somehow I missed an entire generation of amazing literature. I had a lot of work to do.
First he gave me some of his favorite titles to start with – "The Ultimates," "Y- the Last Man," "Spiderman," "The Green Lantern," and "The Umbrella Academy." He was worried it might be too much for me to start. Pfft, whatev. I got this. They looked cool so let me at 'em. Wait, how many freakin' issues do I need to catch up on?? And with that one little question, thus began my journey into finding my inner comic geek.
So, how does a typical "chick" who admittedly reads US and People weekly get indoctrinated into the comic book world? By diving in head first, baby! I started reading… and reading… and reading. Before I realized it, I got so hooked on Y, I would lose sleep trying to finish issues before I went to bed. And as fast as I would complete an issue or a title, Jason would be right there to replace it with another one. It wasn't long before I began recognizing the names of writers and artists. And as is typical for me, I started critiquing. I liked the "soapy" stories like "Y" (yeah, yeah, I know, typical chick), the humor of "Spiderman," the kick ass girls like "Batwoman" (I know, shocking) and the violent crime mysteries like "Greek Street" (ha, gotcha there, didn't I?) At that point, Jason told me I was ready. Ready for what? Did I pass some sort of test? Yes, fellow comic bookers, I was graduating and it was time to go to the next level – time for my very first trip to… wait for it… Meltdown Comics!

A singular game in December.Cold wind snaps into you like a Suh kick to the man zone, you awake to find yourself at a tailgate of epic proportions, as human heart attacks lumber through the parking lot of Lambeau field preparing themselves for the game by drinking a supertanker of beer and washing it down with cheddar cheese.Make no mistake, these fans don't like each other and neither do these teams.This is Packers vs. Lions son, and you best be ready for a game. The Pack currently owns a 20-0 record over the Lions in Lambeau (it was 1991 when Eric Kramer out-dueled Mike Tomczak in the last Lions victory). Packers vs. Bears gets more press, but this is no less the bloodbath. With that, I give you three bold predictions for Sunday's hammer party.The Packers will commit to the run early.

Birds of Paradise
Photographs by Tim Laman
In 2004, Cornell Lab of Ornithology scientist Edwin Scholes and field biologist and National Geographic photographer Tim Laman set out to complete the first comprehensive study of all birds-of-paradise. After 8 years and 18 expeditions they have amassed photographic and video coverage of all 39 known species and documented several new behaviors.
Found only in New Guinea and parts of Australia, the birds-of-paradise are a case study in the evolutionary power of sexual selection. Their fantastic plumes and bizarre courtship displays are a result of millions of years of sexual selection at work in an environment with plentiful food and no natural predators.
Natural selection is widely considered to be an integral topic in biology, but sexual selection is a facet of natural selection that is often glossed over or not mentioned at all in biology classes. This collection includes lessons, content videos, maps, student-friendly encyclopedic entries, and a robust interactive to help you and your students explore all of the science behind the birds-of-paradise.
Birds-of-Paradise Project
Use this interactive website to immerse yourself in the world of the birds-of-paradise. Learn about evolution, adaptation, and the science behind the birds' use of color, sound, and dance. Explore high-definition videos of the birds in action, see jaw-dropping photographs, and find behind-the-scenes footage of this 8-year expedition.
Science in Paradise
How did the scientists involved in the bird-of-paradise expedition apply the scientific process while studying the birds? Why are the birds-of-paradise of interest to evolutionary biologists?
Sexual Selection
What is sexual selection? How can understanding sexual selection lead to a deeper understanding of the processes of natural selection and evolution?
Heritable Behaviors

98% of marketers to use mobile screens in 2016
Mobile devices continue accelerating as an important advertising channel to connect with the consumers. 86% of marketers today invest in mobile strategy. The combined study of Nielsen and the National Advertisers Association disclosed the figure to rise up at 98%, making it the top most medium in 2016. Tablet's growth in the mobile market industry has become even dramatic as 81% of marketers found the device's importance against 99% of those who see its importance in the next three years. The rise of multiscreen devices in the US, as eMarketer observed, is largely played by smart devices. According to report, smartphone penetration will increase up to 60% in 2016 from its current 44%; while tablet devices will accelerate ... Read more -->

A movie based on Christian values opened Thursday night at the Premier Theater in Burleson. However the North Texas church behind the movie "My Son" says it's shocked by the rating.
The pastor of Retta Baptist Church said many people were taken aback by the R rating at the theater. He also said numerous pastors and Christian organizations have screened it and give it a thumbs up.
"Pastors are kinda skittish when it comes to that R-rating and advertising that from the pulpit when they've been preaching against going to R rated movies for years, it kind of hurt us a little bit," said Chuck Kitchens with Retta Baptist Church.
"My Son" has a dominating Christian theme with a rating that would turn away many church goers and pastors.
The movie tells the story of a young couple who loses custody of their son, then tries to get him back, even to the point of breaking the law.
The controversy involves a scene depicting a shooting which happens inside a church.
Retta Baptist Church, which is mainly responsible for funding and producing the movie, attempted to appeal the rating with no success.
They carried on however, believing the message of Christ in the movie would still be heard.
"We had a mission in mind we wanted to accomplish something we wanted to reach out to people," said actor Michael Willbanks.
THE $25,000 budget is small potatoes by Hollywood standards but they gave it all the glitz and glamour of a Los Angeles premier.
"How else are you gonna catch everybody's attention? I mean obviously you see the crowd around here, obviously it drew attention," said Kristin Ford who watched the film.
"I think we live in a R rated world as it is and it's real life," said moviegoer Katie Cantrell.
The church got one email from a company that provides security to churches. The company took issue with the church shooting scene. FOX4 is told when they watched it, they gave it their support.

Chap. 4: Dissensions0 Reviews
Thinking of what to do.
Toru stopped and sighed, sitting her brush on the glass table, and looking at her sister. "We can't stay here Mayumi."
She said as she stood up and walked over to her bed that was next to the window.
"Would it be so bad if we just stayed here for a little while...? I mean, we hadn't had a decent place to stay in for days. And it's not like they would ever hurt us or anything." She said as she walked over to her sister and put her hands behind her back.
"You don't know that Mayumi."
She said and took off her locket and set it down on a small, round, table that was between each others bed.
"But that professor guy didn't seam like he would hurt a fly, and they did save out life, we oh them."
She said walking over to her sister's bed, sitting next to her and taking her locket off as well.
"They might have saved us, but we oh them nothing, besides, I'm just being careful."
She said as she stood back up, walking over to the many fridge lying on a table and brought out two soda's, tossing one over to her little sister and walked back, sitting down again.
"I know but, can't we just stay here for a couple of days, three days tops."
She asked cutely, giving her sister the puppy dog face that usually won her over as Toru sighed and smiled.
"I'll think about it... Now get dressed so we can go to bed, okay..."
She said as Mayumi jumped up with a smile, letting out a high, "yes!" and giggled.
After ten minutes of brushing hair, putting on cloths, and getting ready for the next day to come, Mayumi and Toru turned off the lights and laid down, and with in a couple of hours Mayumi was finally asleep, all but Toru, who stayed awake, just staring up at the ceiling as she sighed and stood up, walking out and onto the balcony.
She leaned over on the white hedges and looked up to the moon as she brushed her hair back with her long pail fingers and looked down, her bangs falling over her deep green eyes.
A small, quiet, voice called her name as she turned around and saw her sister; she smiled at her and walked back in.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up."
She said as Mayumi walked over to her.
"No, its fine, there's allot to think about, so I don't blame you for catching some fresh air."
She said as she curled back into her bed as Toru curled back into hers.
"What do you think Mom and Dad are thinking about right now?"
Mayumi asked, lying on her side as she looked at her sister, her sister looking back at her.
"I don't know."
She said and rolled back over, facing the wall, not wanting to think about them.
"Maybe their thinking of us, like how we're thinking of them."
She said smiling at the thought of seeing her parents again.
"They called the police on us Mayumi, they think were monsters."
She said, her eyes wide open.
"Yeah but, maybe they feel guilty about it and are looking for us."
She said, hoping, praying.
"I highly dought that Mayumi."
She said and rolled back over, staring into her sisters eyes.
"Yet again, maybe they are, maybe they really do feel guilty."
She said, keeping her sisters hopes high.
"Good night Toru..." - "Good night Mayumi..."
And with that, they where asleep.

Springfield (AP) -- About 90 percent of child passengers on Illinois roads are riding in car seats, but only three out of five of those car seats are being used correctly.
That's according to data from the Illinois Department of Transportation.
Transportation officials are especially concerned about the finding because automobile crashes are a leading cause of death for children under the age of 13.
This Saturday, parents and caregivers can get free advice from certified safety technicians on proper installation and use of car seats, booster seats and standard seat belts.
State officials and AAA are sponsoring the sessions at 88 locations across Illinois as part of National Child Passenger Safety Week.

Inventors Law Orlando
Do you have a great idea for a new product or service, but are not sure where to start? At Daniel Law Offices, P.A., we understand the process of obtaining a U.S. Patent and can explain the intricacies of Inventors Law. Orlando area residents can call 407-841-8375 or nationwide at 1-866-37PATENT.
Our Registered Patent Attorney can help you take the next step in successfully developing your ideas. In fact, our practice is dedicated to assisting individuals, inventors and startup companies with all of their Intellectual Property needs. We know that you want to discuss your idea with someone, but can't because you are afraid they may steal your intellectual property. That's why we're here to provide the legal counsel to help you turn your ideas into reality.
When you visit our Orlando, Tampa or Jacksonville office, you will privately meet with a registered U.S. patent attorney. Someone who can confidentially discuss your ideas during a private one-on-one consultation. Whether your idea is for a new "Mobile App", an innovative tool, or even an improvement on an existing product, the only real way to protect any invention is through a United States Patent.
Invention Submission Companies
Don't be fooled by invention submission companies who offer to help you license your invention without obtaining a patent, and to build expensive prototypes for sale. The simple fact is most of the time prototypes are a waste of money, as companies who buy inventions have the capability to easily manufacture prototypes themselves. Moreover, a prototype is not necessary to obtain a U.S. Patent under Inventors Law.
What invention submission groups do not tell you is that the vast majority of companies in the United States will not even consider purchasing an new idea from anyone, unless a proper United States Patent Application has been filed. This is because it is impossible to sell the rights to something you do not own, and the only way to own the rights to an idea is through a Patent.
Additionally, inventors should be aware that once a product is offered for sale (including offers from invention submission companies), you only have one year to file a patent or you lose your rights to do so forever. This means that anyone can make and sell your idea and you have no legal recourse against them. Moreover, with the recent enactment of the America Invents Act, this one year timeframe can be eliminated if the company produces a similar product with only a couple of small variations.
Affordable Patent and Trademark Registration
Inventors often think they cannot afford to hire a Patent Attorney and thus turn to an invention submission company for assistance. Because invention submission companies are not regulated by the government, this can be a critical mistake. Our attorneys receive calls every day from inventors who have lost the rights to their inventions after dealing with these get rich quick companies. Please visit any of the independent links below for reliable information:
- Facts on Invention Promotion Firms – Federal Trade Commission
- Scam Prevention Regarding Invention Submission Companies – United States Patent and Trademark Office
- Targeted Scam Brochure – United States Patent and Trademark Office (this a PDF document and may take a few seconds to download)
- RipOffReport – Patent Company Complaints
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) contains numerous complex rules and procedures that must be carefully navigated in order to secure Intellectual Property rights. As such, Patent practitioners must have both a legal and engineering or scientific background to be admitted as a Registered Patent Attorney.
Cost of Patent Application and Trademark Fees
Daniel Law Offices is an inventor-focused law firm in Orlando, Florida. We are dedicated to assisting entrepreneurs, startup companies, small businesses and first time inventors to obtain Patent and Trademark protection for their ideas. At Daniel Law Offices, you will work one-on-one with a Patent Attorney who will always be available to answer any questions or concerns you may have about the process.
Our flat fees start at $1900 for a provisional patent application and $3900 for a complete non-provisional mechanical patent application, and go up depending on the complexity of the invention. However, when you select us for your patent application or trademark registration, the total cost is always quoted in advance.
Daniel Law Offices, P.A. was founded to provide expert assistance to inventors throughout the United States and abroad. As Registered Patent Attorneys, we are licensed to practice before the United States Patent & Trademark Office and are legally bound by Title 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations (Section 10.57) to maintain the strictest confidentiality with respect to our clients disclosures.
Whether this is your first or your 100th invention, the experienced lawyers of Daniel Law Offices are your best choice for protecting your intellectual property and inventions. Please call at 407-841-8375 or 1-866-37PATENT, or use our convenient contact form to schedule a consultation with a U.S. Patent or Trademark Attorney.

The U.S. Senate failed to pass S.649 this week by a mere 6 votes due to procedural steps that required 60 votes to pass the 100 person chamber. Research has shown that more than half of women in the United States murdered with guns are killed by intimate partners. More than half of mass shootings are acts of domestic violence or family violence. This violence is related to our weak gun laws, specifically the private sale loophole that makes it easy for those that choose to abuse to avoid background checks and obtain access to a firearm.
Please take a moment today to thank Senator John McCain for standing with the 92% of Americans who supported this lifesaving legislation and voting YES on S. 649. In addition, please contact Senator Flake and urge him to support universal background checks, if it comes to a vote again.
Contact Senator McCain and Senator Jeff Flake by calling the capitol switchboard at (1-888-269-5702 or 1-202-224-3121) and ask the operator to connect you to Senator McCain's and Senator Flake's office.
When you are connected with a staff member, tell him/her:
"I am a [constituent/victim advocate/survivor] and my name is _______. I am calling to thank Senator McCain for voting yes on S. 649. This legislation would have closed loopholes in our background check system. We hope Senator McCain will continue to support the bill given another opportunity as it's provisions are essential to help keep victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking safe. Thank you."
"I am a [constituent/victim advocate/survivor] and my name is _______. I am calling to urge Senator Flake, to express my disappointment in Senator Flake for voting against universal background checks for gun sales. S.649 would have closed loopholes in our background check system and would keep victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking safe. Thank you."
It's easy, it's fast and it's effective.
If you would rather send emails, click here for contact information. If you have questions, please contact the Systems Advocacy Department at 602-279-2900.
Thanks for your advocacy!

Where do our thoughts come from?
Have you ever wondered where your thoughts come from? Is it simply a matter of the hard wiring of the brain? For example, when an idea comes to you suddenly, where did it come from? Is there more to this than we currently understand?

Mar 10 2011: I also agree with Zaz Tao that :This whole flurry of neural activity must be part of, or connect to the part of your brain that generates language; that forms thought into words or symbols that can be expressed to the part of your brain that listens and can break down the words and symbols into meaning, which in turn is sent to neural circuitry that checks for validity, consistency or falsehood.

Jul 2 2013: In my opinion a battle against oppressive society is more tougher than fighting against government for your rights because It is the society that is more closer to you, It can either encourage or discourage your fight.
Continuous motivation and a strong inspiration are two essential things before you start your fight for your rights, which you can get them easily from your nearby society.
If your society is cooperative you may finally win your battle, but if it doesn't promotes you you will feel tired soon and that's all it takes to lose a battle.

NIGERIA: Think Outside the Oil
Dependence on oil wealth has led to violence, corruption, and widespread poverty in Nigeria. Simi Lawoyin hopes to shift investment to another of Nigeria's natural resources: its youth.
"Enterprise must become a weapon with which we fight, a tool with which we rebuild our nation, and a bridge with which we connect with the world."

Waiting in line at the store, I spot an Italian globetrotter who works for an oil company in the southeastern region of Nigeria. I ask him what he thinks about the extreme poverty in the oil-rich towns he works in.
"Oh, it's bad. It's bad," he says, shaking his head. He says something about poor infrastructure, pollution, and lack of education.
"Who do you think is responsible?" I ask him.
"The people," he responds, without missing a beat. "Nothing will ever change, the money will never reach you unless you people get up and elect a good government."
'What do you think we've been trying to do,' I want to scream. 'Do you not see we've been straining against restraints for years? Do you not see us fighting, struggling?'
I don't scream. Instead I tell him that we need to stop waiting for the government to give us what we think we deserve, for the "oil money" to find its way to our waiting purses. I see us making economic progress already in Nigeria, and it's not because of oil money. It's enterprise.
My new Italian friend peers curiously at me, as if I have grown two heads. Then he gives me a patronizing nod, "Sure."
The juxtaposition of wealth and poverty is a common motif in Nigeria's landscape. Modern high-rise buildings are nestled in overpopulated, pollution-infested communities. A group of children fetch buckets of water from a stream as, on the bridge over their heads, other children in pressed school uniforms are chauffeured in Lexus jeeps to private schools. Three or four well-lit homes stand out starkly against the blanket of darkness that envelops an entire community at nightfall.
The unfair distribution of wealth in Nigeria has long been a hot topic of discourse in our marketplaces, campuses, and local beer parlors. The nation's laments are chronicled in the literary works of authors and activists like Wole Soyinka and the late Ken Saro-Wiwa, and iterated less peaceably by insurgent groups across Nigeria who have taken recourse to violence.
Nigeria is one of Africa's wealthiest nations, ranked 32 in the world according to its GDP (adjusted for purchasing power). Yet, an estimated 70% of the country's population live below the poverty line. The bulk of Nigeria's revenue comes from the country's oil sector, but there are high prospects for its agricultural and technology sectors if they were to receive adequate funding and research.
Since Nigeria's independence from Great Britain in 1960 and its subsequent emergence into the oil market, political instability has rocked our country. A succession of power-hungry regimes fought over the reins of government. Candidates in Nigeria's recent elections claimed political and economic reforms in eloquent monologues, but there continues to be a sense of distrust and anger against an institution that has historically misappropriated the country's resources. Cries of outrage were set off across the country after a disclosure by the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) that financing for the country's National Assembly constituted 25% of the federal budget.
I have taken to calling my parents' generation the "oil-boomer generation." Complete with degrees or certificates facilitated by missionaries or the imperial government, they stepped out into post-colonial, oil-rich Nigeria with a great outlook for the future. They heard President Gowon announce, "Money is not our problem, but how to spend it," and they dreamed they would never lack for anything. Their choices—their decisions to stay and work in Nigeria rather than take up lucrative offers abroad, to have four children instead of two, and to abandon the farms left them by their fathers in the villages—are tell-tale indicators of their dreams. Nigeria was positioned to benefit greatly from the oil boom that peaked in the 1970s and no one could have foretold anything but greatness for the nation.
As a series of corrupt government leaders swooped in to control the national treasure, a new reality began to emerge. Suddenly coups, civil war, and uncertainty became the order of the day. And what became of the oil-boomers? Some of them hunkered down and set aside their dreams for the pursuit of survival; some, at their own risk, spoke out or wrote against the many ills perpetuated by the nation's leaders; many threw themselves into the pursuit of the dreams they once held, determined to partake of the country's oil money—at whatever cost, by whatever means.
Over the years, a "get-your-own-share-of-the-national-pie" mentality has been inbred into succeeding generations. There is a disconcerting sense of entitlement in the attitudes and actions of young people in Nigeria today. Whether they saw their parents wilt and give up, or they saw them acquire wealth through illegal means, or they never saw their parents at all, many young Nigerians feel they have been cheated out of what is rightfully theirs. . . .
Youth empowerment is crucial
You have touched on the feeling of every youth in Africa, these disillusioned lot can turn their lemons to lemonade or become bitter. In my country this bitterness led to the post election violence in 2007, we are still walking on egg shells as we gear towards another election next year, we can only hope that the past will have taught us lessons we do not want to relearn.
Entrepreneurship is key to transforming the continent, Kenyan youth are now catching up to this. All the best for Nigeria.

Very well Simi... Nice
Very well Simi... Nice writeup!
Am a Nigerian and it hurts the effect Oil has on our country, Most times i wonder if its a curse or a blessing with the speed with which all other sector-Agriculture, Textile, etc has been neglected just because Oil was found.
But, my happiness rests on the fact that voices are rising up for diversification of the economy and Nigerians have remembered, albeit, slowly, that before the Oil we existed after all!
I do not aim for Perfection; Just excellence!
Through the eyes of a woman, powerful. The world could be changed for the better in a few days if women thinkers like you were 'allowed' to put their thoughts into practice. bravo!

Some Day is For Reckoning
Surely the irresponsible acts of our leaders will not go unaccounted for. Posterity has a shocking stock for every man or woman who has participated in the squandering of Nigeria's wealth.
Thank you for this wonderful piece. Nigeria has really steered off course a long glorious path to greatness no thanks to corrupt and inept leadership. However, I hold on to the firm belief that until we shake off the shackles of amnesia and complacency and demand good governance, we are just as guilty as the pot bellied tyrants who call themselves leaders. Thank you.

When I was in senior year of high school I helped my gf adopt the cutest puppy. What TL;DR of yours is misunderstood, yet completely accurate. (self.AskReddit)
submitted 1 year ago by [deleted]
Last year of high school I really stopped giving a shit about school. At lunch me and my gf would go home and have sex into the next class period. Well, on one occasion she decided to get really frisky and asked for anal. Neither of us had done it before but I wasn't against it because she had big soft smooth ass that I still fap to when my wifi is out.
I agree, and we get at it. Lube up and just shove it in there too hard I suppose because she screamed and I pulled out. Then, she shit allll over the bed. We were both really comfortable with eachother and laughed it off. Then her mom comes home.
As my GF is furiously trying to clean up this shit from the sheets, we hear her mom coming up the stairs and I hide in the closet, naked and hard as fuck. Mom comes in and is utterly shocked, as she didn't expect her daughter to be home, nor did she expect her to be cleaning feces. I was barely holding in a lot of laughs as my gf was stammering, trying to think of a good excuse.
She did. "Mom, I came home to walk Molly (their 7 year old dog) and she was in this bed crapping everywhere." I was pretty impressed by the improv. Excuse accepted, wait for mom to leave and we go back to school.
After school got out a bunch of us went back to her house to chill cause it was our usual spot. Dog wasn't there, nor was mom. Hmm kinda weird after they weren't back in normal walking time. We all dip and go home, get this text later : Bobby my mom fucking put down Molly because you didn't know how to assfuck. Felt bad cause I liked the dog but still lold. Two days later, cute ass Golden Retriever puppy.
TL;DR In high school, I helped my gf adopt the cutest puppy.

About Littleton, Colorado
Information provided by Wikipedia
Littleton is a Home Rule Municipality as contained in Arapahoe, Douglas, and Jefferson counties[5] in the U.S. state of Colorado. It is a suburb of the Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Statistical Area. It is the county seat of Arapahoe County[6] and the 20th most populous city in the state of Colorado. The population was 41,737 at the 2010 census.
The city of Littleton's history dates back to the 1859 Pike's Peak Gold Rush, which brought not only gold seekers, but merchants and farmers to the community. Richard Sullivan Little was an engineer from New Hampshire that made his way out west to work on irrigation systems. Little quickly fell in love with the area that is present day Littleton and brought his wife Angeline out from the East in 1862. The Littles, along with many neighbors, built the Rough and Ready Flour Mill in 1867, which provided a solid economic base in the community. By 1890, the community had grown to 245 people and the residents voted to incorporate the Town of Littleton.[7]
The Colorado Center for the Blind, a skills training program for blind teenagers and adults operated by the National Federation of the Blind, is located in Littleton. Denver Seminary is in Littleton.
Intelligent Vehicle Safety Technologies' "Desert Tortoise," a competitor in the DARPA Grand Challenge, is based in Littleton.

The average household size was 2.29 and the average family size was 2.96.
In the city the population was spread out with 23.3% under the age of 18, 8.2% from 18 to 24, 30.1% from 25 to 44, 24.2% from 45 to 64, and 14.2% who were 65 years of age or older.

The cast on her right hand is one visual reminder of the horror a West Columbia woman says she and her 6-year-old daughter endured in the early morning hours of Sunday, April 13.
"In the end, if I had died, so be it. But as long as she was okay, that was my main goal," she said.
For privacy reasons, we are not identifying the woman, who was shot several times in the upper body.
She tells WIS the bullets missed her vital organs.
"Me and my baby were in the bed together," she said. "I just kind of opened my eyes and when I did, I saw him standing there with a gun, pointing it."
A stranger was in her home. Demanding. Threatening.
"I just explained to him, 'I don't have anything,'" she said. "'I don't have any money. Please don't hurt me. Please don't hurt my child.'"
Instead, she said he tried to sexually assault her.
"He instructed me to undress and I said, 'Please, can she go in the living room?' Somewhere where she doesn't have to witness what's about to happen."
She was willing to sacrifice herself so her daughter could be safe. But he turned to target the child after seeing the mother on her menstrual cycle.
"He instructed her to come out the closet and take her clothes off," said the mother. "At that point I already knew what he was about to do. He would have done best to shoot me in the head than for me to sit there and listen to him sexually assault her. It was just running through my mind, 'I can't allow this to happen.'"
So she made a choice and grabbed the gun.
"It was no turning back," she said. "I took all of my weight and put it on him. We actually ended up going from the bedroom into the hallway, into my bathroom. And he just kept repeating 'Let go! Let go! I'm going to shoot you. I'm going to shoot you.' And I just couldn't let go. And that's when he let off with the shots."
She took a risk and fought because her life and her daughter's depended on it.
"I could feel the bullets inside me. I felt like I was going to die," she said.
The day after the attack occurred, she was supposed to start a job at Lexington Medical Center. She lost the job opportunity, but LMC said they will wait until she heals and then they will help her based on what openings they have at that time.
The man charged in the attack, 31-year-old Nathaniel Hunter, was denied bond Wednesday. The circuit court judge called Hunter a danger to the community.
Hunter was out on bond for a 2006 murder at the time of this incident in West Columbia. That 2006 incident was in Fairfield County in December 2006 when Carlon Castillo and Christopher Fuller were killed. Hunter is charged with murder in Castillo's death.
Fairfield County deputies arrested Hunter in January 2007 for first-degree burglary and a weapons charge, but it wasn't until April 2007 that they charged him with murder. According to court documents, Hunter claims his cell-mate in the county jail gave a false statement to investigators, saying Hunter confessed to Castillo's murder, on the same day that an arrest warrant was issued for the murder. That same jail roommate later sent a letter to the Clerk of Court, recanting his statement, saying he lied because he was angry at his cell-mate.
Hunter's murder charge has not gone to trial because of what the solicitor calls "factual and legal issues." No one has been charged in Fuller's death.
He's now charged with attempted murder, armed robbery, kidnapping and criminal sexual conduct.
The day after all this happened, she was supposed to start a new job at Lexington Medical Center.
She lost the job opportunity because the hospital was unaware of the extenuating circumstances.
Lexington Medical Center Public Relations Director Jennifer Wilson said, the hospital will wait until the victim heals and then they will help her, based on what openings they have at that time.
The victim tells WIS she was given a recovery time of between two and four months.
