text: FG recovers N7b, indicts 300 persons and companies The Committee inaugurated by the Federal Government to probe contracts awarded by the Office of the National Security Adviser from 2011 to 2015 has indicted more than 300 companies and prominent citizens, including serving and retired officers of the Nigerian Armed Forces. The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, stated this in a statement on Thursday. Shehu explained that the committee was different from the committee investigating the Defence Arms and Equipment Procurement. He said over N7bn had been recovered so far from the indicted companies and individuals. Shehu, however, did not give the breakdown of how much each company or individual returned. He said N41bn was to be returned by the indicted companies, adding that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had been ordered to determine whether another N75bn should be recovered from some of the companies for unexecuted or partially-executed contracts. According to him, the committee further established that one of the indicted companies, Societe D'Equipment International, was overpaid to the tune of 7.9m Euros and $7.09m (about N3.15bn). He added that the committee discovered that there was a total disregard for salient provisions of the Public Procurement Act in the award of contracts by ONSA. Shehu said, "Several contractors were apparently overpaid, while others were given full upfront payments contrary to their contract terms and agreements in force. "There was also evidence of payments to individuals and companies by ONSA without any contractual agreement or evidence of jobs executed. "The committee further discovered that some companies failed to meet up with their tax obligations for contracts executed. "The committee has made attempts and succeeded in recovering some of the funds from these individuals and organisations amounting to N3,537,549,223.04; $8m and houses worth N512m from 32 companies. "The committee also established that some individuals and companies received monies without evidence of contractual agreements or jobs done. The amount received by these individuals was N7,104,925,000.00. "In a similar vein, the committee revealed that some companies that failed to execute contracts or did so partially were to return money to the government. The total amount to be is N19,896,539,125.20 only, $43,771,433.73 and two houses in Abuja worth N260,000,000.00. "The committee also revealed that 15 companies were awarded contracts that require further investigation to ascertain the status of their contracts. The total value of the contracts awarded in this category was N11,726,571,161.00, $202,136,890.00 and €4,114,752.96." The presidential spokesperson stated that companies that failed to execute contracts or did so partially included Daar Investment and Holdings Limited; Dalhatu Investment Limited; Destra Investment Limited; NAF Holding Company Limited; BCN Nigeria Limited; Elizade Nigeria Limited; Hadassa Investment and Security; RCN Networks Limited; Julius Berger; and Stallion Motors Limited. These companies, he said, had been asked to return undisclosed amount of money. The presidential spokesman also listed some of the individuals and companies that were indicted for receiving payments without contractual agreements to include the former Principal General Staff Officer at the ONSA and still a serving military officer, Brig. Gen. A.S. Mormoni-Bashir; Dr. Yakubu Sanky; a Director in the ONSA, Amb. Layiwola Laseinde; a former NSA, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.); Special Adviser to Dasuki, Col.

Others are Dr. Tunji Olagunju, Miss Oluwatoyin Oluwagbayi, Maipata Mohammed Abubakar, Mohammed Suleiman, Ibrahim Abdullahi, Alhaji Aliyu Usman and 18 other officers that served in the ONSA.

How To Make Team Meetings Fun: The Wheel House
As you may know, I own a company named "Bridal By Alexandria". I have carefully selected a team of ladies who are not only talented in bridal beauty services but are very hard working, to say the least. I am constantly stressing to my clients and readers how important it is to have "balance" in life and to truly enjoy your job by finding something that you love to do. With that being said, it can be a difficult task to stay balanced in such a "busy" world where it's so easy to burn out. Whether you're in the beauty industry or a different field of work that requires customer service, a lot of responsibility comes into play. With scheduling, emails, phone calls, marketing, contracts, creating customized skin care regimens, and countless commitments, how do you deal with the pressure and not feel overwhelmed?
Being a boss takes work. Whether managing your own life, your brand or your entire company, owning your philosophy and perspective can be challenging at times. So when it was time for me to plan another meeting with my team, I wanted to incorporate mindfulness and wellness. The more wellness I welcome into my life, the better the impacts and decisions I make. Incorporating wellness into your company can improve focus, drive, productivity, and help ensure that the team is in the right shape to do their best work.
Therefore, how can we find a way to connect with each other, improve ourselves, and the business without a long, boring meeting discussing client contracts for hours?
Something I thrive over is Boss Babes. So when I heard that Michelle Shah was opening up her own Spin studio nearby, I immediately thought to myself how fun it would be to host the next "team meeting" here! I texted Michelle and asked her if I could rent out the studio for a Team workout and without hesitation, she gladly welcomed the idea.
Michelle got her start in the fitness world while living in San Diego. As an avid spin class attendee, the opportunity to get certified sparked her interest. What started as a New Years resolution became a hobby then developed into a full blown passion. Flash forward 5 years later, being a new mom and moving back to Poughkeepsie- Michelle saw a void in the boutique fitness industry in the Hudson Valley. And like that, The Wheel House was born.
Spin is, as Michelle says, a party on the bike. Upbeat music, high energy, fun lights - 45 minutes to get in and get a full body workout.
I planned for the girls on my team to meet at The Wheel House for some "Team building exercises." I believe that work relationships are essential for a positive work environment and emotional wellness among employees. This was the perfect opportunity to bring The Bridal By Alexandria Team together to unwind, have some fun, and reduce stress levels. Fun is one of our core values. It's really important for us not to take ourselves too seriously (all the time). I treated the girls to a Barre class hosted by Michelle herself. She kicked our asses and 1 week later I'm still sore. I am proud to say my Team killed it!
It's really important for me to work hard and be successful without burning out. I want to continue to put an emphasis on self-care, and healthy employees mean a healthy business. Healthy including Mind, Body, Soul. To read about Self Care click here.
The Wheel House also offers barre, yoga, and mat Pilates as these all complement a spin routine. For only $20, you can go get your cardio, sculpting, toning, and stretch done in one location. To book your workout head over to www.WheelHouseNY.com
What are some of your favorite team building activities? Give me some ideas for my next fun team meeting in the comments below!
Bridal By Alexandria is expanding our hair and makeup team for 2018. If you have experience and are interested in joining our team please email me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com

Some gardeners swear by talking to their plants to help them grow; now, those plants can talk back.
The French electronics company Parrot, which makes car navigation systems and the superb Parrot Zik headphones, has branched out with a sensor for plant lovers born without a green thumb.
The device, called Parrot Flower Power, was created to analyze the growing conditions of plants and send you the results. Once inserted in the plant's soil, either in a pot or open ground, the sensor monitors ambient temperature, fertilizer, light intensity and soil moisture.
When synced to a smartphone via Bluetooth, the device relays the information to an app, which has a broad database of 6,000 plants and trees and the precise needs for each one. The app will also record and chart up to a year's worth of data. And the sensor will send an alert if action is needed.
Parrot Flower Power, which works only with iOS devices, is available at Brookstone and Verizon stores for $60. It comes with a AAA battery, which provides power for about six months. The sensor measures the soil about four inches around it, making it useful for several plants in a single pot, like a window box. With a few sensors, you can oversee the health of an entire garden.
I have several plants in my apartment, all heading toward inevitable death because of my unskilled hands. The Parrot Flower Power sensor has been their savior.
Using the device's app, I was able to determine that my windowsill included a Ficus elastica, more commonly known as a rubber plant. I inserted the sensor, which resembles a leafless stick, into the rubber plant's soil. Within 24 hours, it told me that I needed to give my plant more fertilizer and better light. Now if it could only give me directions to the nearest gardening shop.

Moving is an exciting – and stressful – time for any family. But if you have pets, you have even more things to take care of. Not only do you have to prepare the humans in your household to adjust to a new home in a new area, you have to get your furry friends ready, too. This task is a little harder since you can't explain what's happening to your dog or cat. So what can you do to make the transition easier? You can start by talking to a Rock Hill veterinarian. Here are five tips from Fort Mill Animal Clinic if you're moving with pets.
- Don't break your routines – Keep up with your pet's daily routines. Stick to normal feeding and walking times. Try to keep the same amenities in your new home that you had at your old place, like a cat or doggy door.
- Avoid introducing new toys – While you may have good intentions by getting your pet new toys, try to avoid this right after a move. You want to create a familiar feeling for your pet in your new home. New toys and other items might give them anxiety when they need to be comforted.
- Help them feel secure – Speaking of anxiety, your pet might experience some nervousness during the move. Help make them feel secure by setting aside a safe space for them.
- Remain patient – Next, make sure to stay patient. It will take time for your pet to adjust to the new space, so try not to get frustrated if they have accidents or chew on your shoes. Your frustration will only lead to more anxiety for your pet.
- Give them lots of love – Finally, make sure to give your pets tons of love during the move. Providing your dog or cat with positive affirmations will go a long way during this transition.
Are you moving to our area? Schedule an appointment with Fort Mill Animal Clinic once you've settled in! Our Fort Mill, Indian Land, and Rock Hill veterinarian will help you keep your pet happy and healthy. Start by filling out our new pet patient form today.

Floating on your RAFT
Last year around this time, I ran a post that dealt with the RAFT model of moving on for Third Culture Kids (https://tcktalk.com/2013/05/). Lately, it's been one of my most revisited posts as this time of year rolls around and international schools provide info for their families on the move (thanks to the international school websites who shared my link!).
As a reminder, the four areas to address with TCKs as they head off to a new destination are: Reconciliation, Affirmation, Farewells and Thinking Destination. These are definitely helpful considerations for this population, and they have a lot to do with planning effectively for addressing important needs; past, present, and future. I think it's also important, in this busy, stressful time, to find some ways in your last days in a destination to kick back and float on your RAFT.
Mindfulness, as defined and explained by Psychology Today, " Is a state of active, open attention on the present." When a person is being mindful, he or she lets go of judgment and opinion and observes thoughts and emotions as if from a distance, not assigning them a good or bad rating. Mindfulness is also related to not letting your life pass you by in ways that are expending too much energy on the past or in the future. It's instead about trying to focus more on living in the moment and being open to what you are experiencing in the here and now.
Easy to say as I sit here from my computer staying in the same location in which I've lived for 12 years and watching people coming and going around me. The lingo this time of year always refers to next postings or new assignments, weight limits for shipments and containers, moving inventories, obtaining and forwarding various forms of records, etc. It's hard to stop and smell the roses when you're sneezing from the dust of sorting and cleaning. But I would try to add some "present" moments to that never-ending list of things to, the ever-playing images of past memories, and the nagging fears of the future unknown.
Mindfulness can be as informal and basic as focusing more time on your breath and as formal and structured as having official meditation sessions and techniques. For our global families, it can be stopping for a moment while sorting old toys of now grown kids to acknowledge the mixed emotions of sadness at the time that's past and pride at the person your child has become. It can be taking a quick walk (exercise is proven to do incredibly positive things for low mood and stress) down a favorite and familiar road and being aware of all senses; the smell of the freshly blooming lilacs, the periwinkle hue of the midday sky, the feel of the breeze on your skin… Mindfulness has a lot to do with awareness and acceptance. And for people with a lot of change in their lives, much of which is out of their control, acceptance is a huge benefit.
So schedule a little bit of time, on whatever device you might happen to use, for viewing the everyday, ordinary things in a more focused and extraordinary manner. It's a great way to leave a destination that has provided a multitude of incredible moments. Get comfortable on your RAFT, accept where the water is taking you, and tune in to "now" for at least a small part of each busy day ahead.

Hot Berry Puddings
- Serves: 4
- Cook Time: 10 minutes
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Effort: easy
- 4 blueberry muffins
- 125 g blueberries
- 125 g raspberries
- 125 ml sweet white wine, such as Sauternes or Muscat
- 250 g mascarpone
- grated zest and juice of 1 oranges
- icing sugar, to taste
1. Preheat the oven to 200ºC/Gas 6. Cut the muffins in half diagonally from top to bottom. Take 8 pieces of foil, each 25cm square. Layer two foil squares on top of each other, making four double layered foil squares.
2. Put the 2 halves of each muffin on a double layered square of foil. Scrunch the foil round the base and up the sides of the muffins to keep the 2 halves loosely together and hold them in place, leaving enough room to sandwich berries in the middle.
3. Spoon the blueberries and raspberries between the sliced muffin halves. Pour a quarter of the sweet wine over each muffin and bring the foil together tightly to seal the muffins into a parcel.
4. Place the muffin parcels on a baking sheet and bake for 5-10 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, place the mascarpone in a bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until soft. Add the orange zest and juice and sweeten with icing sugar to taste.
6. Transfer the muffin parcels to serving plates, open them up and serve hot, topped with the orange mascarpone.

This is outrageous, people! How can I get in the Christmas spirit without snow? I know you warm-climate-livers are all shaking your heads and laughing at me, but I'm spoiled. I've lived in Northeast Ohio for almost my entire life - and when I wasn't here, I was in England or Sweden.
I need my damn snow.
Not this:
Yeah. What the balls, people? If this is my first winter with a Husky, I expect blizzards. Save this crap for March.
In other unrelated, yet happier news, thank you to everyone who has been donating to the IndieGogo fundraiser to keep the indie bookshop (which keeps me employed) in the right hands. I just checked this morning and in only 2 days we've already raised $750! There are just 41 days left to reach our $50,000 goal, so please keep spreading the word and THANK YOU for everything you may have already done or are about to do. You guys rock my world! And please keep reading Kate's blog for updates!

With the realization that the chilled air is here to stay, my thoughts go to memories of the warmest spaces and perfect fall meals. Freeman's restaurant in New York City is one of those places. I often refer friends and visitors to the space for at least one meal- although its not unlikely that they make a second stop.
Even giving directions on how to travel to Freemans can be a challenge- its essentially an alley bar for its parent business Freeman's Sporting Club on street level. No signage adorns the front door (which is on Freeman's Alley).
Inside, the space is lighted with a hundred well placed votives, and a handful of bare lightbulbs in the ceiling. Light is reflected off the impressive taxidermy collection and off the beautiful cocktails crafted at the kitchen-adjacent bar.
Make Freeman's a stop next time you're in NYC. And then try keeping it a secret.
191 Chrystie St. New York, NY (end of Freeman Alley)

Fixation, for me, is when my mind anchors to an attractive stock from Company A and uses it as a scale to measure the worth of Company B. My judgement becomes distorted and biased and I cannot seem to research untouched by the impression Company A gave me. It seems that I have already made a choice before I have already gone through all the options I have. It's an immense flaw in judgement that I would like to get rid of.
I have gone through the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) website to compile all the health care stock that are listed on it in order to choose one that trumps all of them. I don't know if this is the right way to do research, but I have yet to come across a website that mentions the research processes that experienced investors use to sort through the many companies they hear of.
I am going to deviate from the topic of this article and clarify that my goal, for the moment, is to try everything until I find a method that works for me. I want to be more fluid in learning and be able to abandon a strategy that does not work for me. I believe everyone should not to be too rigid with their plans. If something does not work, it is justified to try something new. Being obstinate may be a flaw in this world.
After compiling all these companies, I highlight the ones that seem most appropriate to me and focus on them. I visit to their websites and learn everything I can about them. (Honestly, it takes me a while to read about one company because I have to refer to my fundamental analysis notes repeatedly.) When I come across Company A, with its attractive financial statements, my mind fixates on it and even when I move on to Company B and attempt to be more rational in gauging its worth, Company A is still stuck on my mind. It's like that prediction a psychic tells you that you try to rebel against but end up molding yourself around.
I hope with time I get better with compartmentalization and sorting the longer I do this. I may have to chase rationality throughout this process.

It might seem odd for a bankruptcy attorney to tell you not to file bankruptcy, but I do it quite often in my practice. Now don't me wrong, there are many situations when individuals facing large debts should absolutely consider filing bankruptcy. However, there are situations where it is not so clear. So, when should you NOT file bankruptcy?
The first situation is when your debt burden is manageable without bankruptcy. If your total debt can be handled outside of bankruptcy, you probably do not need to file. That amount will be different for every individual. For someone on a fixed budget (such as Social Security), a lawsuit judgement for even a few thousand dollars could necessitate a bankruptcy. Higher income individuals may be able to avoid bankruptcy even when they owe many times more. A good rule of thumb is to look at how much you are able to reduce your debt burden in a normal month. If you can put a healthy dent in your debt each month, you may not need to file. However, if you can only make minimum payments on your credit cards, or you can barely pay your utilities, you should strongly consider filing. I have found that people have a pretty good feel for when their debt is beyond their control, but it is often good to discuss it aloud with a professional.
A second situation where you may not need to file is when the bulk of your debts are not dischargeable. For instance, student loans are not normally discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If almost all of your debt is student loans, obviously bankruptcy will not be much help. Bankruptcy will not eliminate your debt. Taxes often raise the same issue. In rare cases, credit card debt is not dischargeable, even if only temporarily. I will be happy to discuss what types of debt are not dischargeable to see if filing is worthwhile.
Another situation where filing bankruptcy may not be in your interest is if you want to get a mortgage in the near future. Bankruptcy will not prevent you from getting a mortgage forever, but it will make the process more difficult to complete for at least a few years. I talk to people in this situation occasionally, and whether or not to file is determined by a few important factors. If your debts are large and your savings are low, getting a mortgage may be impossible anyways. If your debt is manageable, and especially if you expect an increase in income in the near future, putting off bankruptcy in order to get a mortgage may make sense.
Thoughtfully considering an individual debtor's circumstance is an important part of my job. Sometimes filing bankruptcy is inevitable. Sometimes it is avoidable. Contact us to set up a free consultation, and I will be happy to sit down and consider all of these factors with you.

Note: This post contains spoilers, so if you haven't seen 'Black Panther', what are you waiting for? Go see it and come back!
The highly anticipated Marvel movie 'Black Panther' made its debut over the weekend and it did not disappoint. Its depiction of Afrofuturism, advanced technology mixed with cultural tradition and unapologetic blackness was everything we wanted it to be and more. I could discuss reoccuring themes in the movie like relations between Africans and African Americans or the roles of women in a modern society, but that's not my lane. I found a few travel themes that you should keep in mind for your next trip.
1. Always show up to someone's house with a gift.
After years of preparing (by preparing, I mean lying, cheating and killing), Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) finally landed in Wakanda, where he showed up with the body of Ulysses Klaue. For 30 years, Klaue was a thorn in the side of T'Chaka and now crowned king T'Challa - Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman). We learn in the movie that with the help of King T'Chaka's brother, N'Jobu (Sterling K. Brown), Klaue had information necessary to enter Wakanda and steal vibranium from the nation. Klaue is, at some point, captured and branded as a thief, but eventually escaped -- killing W'Kabi's (Daniel Kaluuya) parents in the process. Needless to say, Klaue was at the top of Wakanda's Most Wanted List. So when Erik Killmonger shows up with his body at W'Kabi's doorstep, it gains him a 'welcomed' entry into Wakanda.
Although I don't recommend showing up with a dead body, when visiting someone's home at home or abroad, something more appropriate like flowers or a bottle of wine will always go a long way. Be polite and show that you were raised to have manners.
2. Get in where you fit in.
After capturing Klaue, Black Panther and CIA Agent Everett Moss end up working together briefly to question him. But in the midst of Klaue escaping their grasp, Everett takes a bullet for Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o), Black Panther's ex-girlfriend and trusted member of his personal guard. T'Challa feels indebted to Everett and decides to bring him back to Wakanda in order to save his life.
The long and short of it all is that Everett becomes a member of "Team Black Panther". As Queen Mother (Angela Bassett), Nakia, and Black Panther's sister, Shuri (Letitia Wright), escape after Killmonger becomes king, they seek refuge with M'Baku (Winston Duke), head of the Jabari tribe. Everett, a white outsider, decides he has something to say about the way forward and M'Baku and the Jabari shoot him down by engaging in their signature barking, which I found to be quite hilarious.
To me, this was a reminder that when someone invites you into their home and culture, you need to get in where you fit in. Do not insert your outsider opinions when they aren't asked for. Find yourself some business to mind unless otherwise asked.
3. Don't destroy natural resources.
When Erik becomes king, one of his first acts is to light fire to the heart-shaped herbs, the source of Black Panther's powers. While Erik had his reasons, I found it wildly appalling he would order the gardeners to destroy such a beautiful part of their culture.
As we travel, it's important to be mindful of the destination's natural resources. That includes the typical tourist exhibits, water (see Cape Town), flowers and everything else that is native to the destination. Travel mindfully.
4. Respect the old and admire the new.
Shuri was the genius behind Wakanda's technological advancements. Quite frankly, I'm not sure Black Panther would be as effective as he was without her. (But hey, I guess that's why it pays to have a great team behind you.) At T'Challa's crowning ceremony Shuri is seen scoffing at the traditional ceremony citing the tightness of her corset. And I completely get it. Corsets are not fun. It's the reason I refuse to wear Spanx. But as the movie continues and T'Challa's situation becomes dire, a heart-shaped herb and ritual calling upon the ancestors saves his life. I'm not sure if anyone else noticed, but Queen Mother and Nakia immediately started chanting to the ancestors while Shuri hesitated at first and then later joined in.
This was a reminder to me that there is room for both tradition and technology. While we may not always have time to learn about cultural traditions while traveling, I think it's an important component if you really desire to learn about a destination.
5. Trust black women.
This isn't travel related but it's always relevant. The women surrounding T'Challa always had his best interest in mind and essentially gave him the strength he needed to be the best version of himself.
We, and by we I mean the 93% of black women who voted for Hillary Clinton, tried to save y'all. If you had listened to us, the U.S. wouldn't currently be in the situation we're in. But I digress.
While not the goal of the movie, travel lessons can be learned from 'Black Panther'. Can you think of any others? Sound off below!

Nine business advice that all business owners need to know
The professional and professional leaders of the Forbes Coachs Council will provide the first information on leadership development and careers.
Appropriate approaches may mean different trade differences. A part of the long-term plan is to know where the problem is and what kind of business philosophy works best for which industry. This is why it is very important for leaders to have strong peer groups and mentors. Those who are experiencing an external view, or a similar mistake already, can find the difference between difficulty and success.
This means you must protect the ears of those who are most interested in you. A good leader can advise on a wide range of topics without encouraging you where you need or scold you, if necessary, without having to manage your business yourself. And although the elderly can give good advice, this is not the only voice you are looking for: peers and others who are working at the same level as you, for example, any new technology or method Is it worth the time of?
In order for you to succeed, members of the Forbes Coaches Council of 9 nominators share the advice they want early in their career and share with all clients.
1. Research and understand your market
Make market research over time and carefully listen to the ideal client's needs. Please concentrate to find out where they are. It is different from what you want. Get this information and turn it into an inexplicable solution to make your business easier. – Penny Elliott, Pennycomins.com
2. Put hard work
Starting a business is exponentially more difficult than other work. Successful entrepreneurs need to perform a variety of functions such as sales, marketing, finance, operation, personnel affairs. Also, creation of business requires creativity, perseverance, continuous learning. – Justin Kulla, BusinessBlocks
Forbes Coachs Council is a pure guest community for business leaders and careers. Am I eligible?
Make the life necessary for yourself
You are a designer of your life. If part of your life does not fit, you can make adjustments. Let's think about clay with ceramics wheels and pottery about your life and your career. Consider what the masterpiece looks like, and shape it further. – Bonnie Hagemann, Executive Development Associates
4. Really listen to your customers
Please listen to it and talk with customers. Because everyone is very interested in communicating their own personal messages, we will not be able to hear and hear the fundamental problem and pain actually. Listen to 80% of the time, reveal 10% of the time and believe that you will respond with your will and your will, 10% of the rest of the time. – Stephynie Malik, ChiqueSpeak
5. Learn by team
Most leaders choose to learn for themselves. They read books and attended meetings. Good leaders will learn with the help of the leaders. The coach is next to the leader and can help the leader to see things from different angles. I will learn the best leaders with the team. Where there are many consultants, the old proverb says that there are many successes. – Ken Gosnell, CXP – Chief Executive Officer (CCO) experience
6. Focus on what will thrive on you
Please do not compromise what prosper you, be persistent. Often we are influenced by the outside world and hide our own desires for our neighbors. If you can catch this nugget faster, your world will change more quickly. – Neeta Bhushan, Global GRIT Association
7. Make a long game
It's easy to tackle the day-to-day challenges of your business, but you have to spend time at least once a week to know what you are doing for the long-term health of your business. This includes marketing, training, employee development, community involvement, capital development. There is definite investment today. – Jim Judy, try franchise
8. Focus on rewards
Perhaps it sounds like a cliche, but my honest advice is when I am thinking about starting a new business despite the fear that it will not work. Since the whole trip is a wonderful experience and learning and growing at the end, it is necessary to be aware that "failure" is not an option. Focusing on reward rather than fear is the real key to success. – Noor Hibbert, that is your dream
Network with experienced executives
Leverages every opportunity of the network, learns from senior executives, is instructed and encouraged by some of them. In addition, achieving specific meetings, meetings, strategic plans is very beneficial. – Izabela Lundberg, Institute for Heritage Leaders

I could think of many words to use to write about my love. After all, I have seen him in 'most every state.
I have seen his cheeks cupped in stubborn stubbles that prick my temples when he plants goodnight kisses. On days when he forgets balm, his lips chap and dry, and he ignores it until I lend him mine. He watches people even when he seems as if he's too busy to pay attention. And, as we should, if we base actions on biological ratio, he listens more than he speaks - when he listens he lends all that he could, but when he speaks, he keeps more than he should.
There are moments in the day, far too often if I may confess, when I'd slip my hand right around his nape and touch base where his hair softly crawls towards his back. I'd drop my eyes just right by his towering nose and peek up to get a good view of just how long his lashes are, so much so it curves like a fan and covers his lids like thick forests, untouched.
I still jump at the sound of his voice calling my name; and when he pulls me close enough that our shoulders would touch I would try to be clever only if to steal a kiss, or see him smile, the way he does when I catch him off guard.
He likes music but would drive in standstill silence.
His eyebrows wrinkle when he's thinking, and he can't keep a straight face, for the life of him, when he's thought of something errant.
I guess I could go on to scribble words and things and stories about my love, but it would never give justice to the kind of bliss, so thick, I could almost touch it - that I am enveloped in, when he is near.
There are many words to describe my love, and the kind of sober drunkenness we share by carrying each other, in mind, soul and heart - but these words, my words, are more his than they are mine.
Be still, they say.
It's still him, I say.
Through these skies that pulse with roaring light and trembles in electricity. To the moon, and right by burning stars, through listless planets and imaginary celestial wars - and back.
It's still him.

Galveston Giant Posthumously acquitted
He was called the Galveston Giant, and his boxing style was known to be on the defensive a predator of the opponent's mistakes. Jack Johnson, according to many sports specialists, was undoubtedly the best fighter of his time, becoming the first black to win a World Heavyweight Champion (1908-1915), and according to the International Boxing Research Organization (IBRO) one of the top ten heavyweights of history.
However, the life of this man who became the most famous African-American in history did not have a happy ending. A victim of the racism and jealousy of many white fighters who wanted to get rid of him, he was sentenced to prison in Chicago for violating the Jim Crow era White-Slave Traffic Act, which was aimed at preventing and punishing the trafficking of people.
Now, many years after his conviction and freedom, President Donald Trump considers granting complete and historic acquittal the Galvestone Giant, after the request of another great boxer Rocky Balboa, I mean, Silvester Stallone. The popular American actor who embodies one of the most memorable and iconic films of sports cinema, he prompted the president to grant absolute posthumous forgiveness to Jack Johnson who died in 1946.
Sylvester Stallone made the request to Trump after telling him how the life of the talented boxer who suffered the racism of the time had been. The American president wrote on Twitter: "I'm considering a Total Forgiveness (sic)!" According to the New York's mogul, Johnson's story moved him and his response will let it known soon.
Half a century after being unjustly imprisoned, one of the most prestigious political figures in the United States has also promoted his total absolution. For a long time, activists and family members have advocated for Johnson's posthumous pardon. John McCain was one of those who filed the motion to restore the reputation of the athlete who refused to accept the conditions and impositions of a society in which blacks had little rights. Several followers of the Galveston Giant believe that he paved the way for racial integration in sport. His name is inscribed along with that of other great athletes such as Joe Louis or Muhammad Ali.
Johnson's capital sin began after he wanted to reach the absolute title of his division. Despite having won more than 50 fights and winning the Heavyweight World Title for Color boxers in 1903, he never settled down for. Then, he started a campaign to face the white champion James J. Jeffries who dodged the challenge in more than one occasion. And although he did not fight with the reigning champion, he did it with the former one Bob Fitzsimmons in July 1907, and knocked him out in just two rounds. In 1908 he won the world title against Tommy Burns in Sydney, Australia, after several years of challenging him without receiving a positive response. Johnson gave a boxing lecture to Tommy and won by technical KO; however, that ignominy against a white man was not forgiven.
The press and a fierce campaign came over the Giant. The whites claimed the title that belonged to them and compared Johnson to an ape with a human form. Despite requests from journalists, politicians and even writer Jack London for a "white hope" to fight and to take the title back, it never happened. Not even James J. Jeffries himself could do it. What was worst, Johnson aggravated the situation with provocative comments that caused the authorities to follow him closely. In 1913 he was arrested for the alleged crime of crossing the border with a woman for immoral purposes.
After a year in prison, he escaped and went to Europe and after five years of fighting in Europe and Argentina he returned to America, surrendering to the authorities.
He spent nine months in jail. Among the legends that are told about Johnson are his statements to have sold his fight against the giant Pottawatomie, Jess Willard, for the US State Department to let him visit his father before going to prison.
He died in a traffic accident at 60, after leaving a cafeteria where they denied him services because he was black.

A Long Island man admitted in court yesterday he lied on the witness stand last year to "cover up" for his friend, who is accused of shooting a St. John's football star and two friends.
Stanley Heriveaux, 20, was a defense witness in June 2002 during Christopher Prince's first trial for attempted murder and assault, stemming from the March 11, 2001, shooting of star linebacker Cory Mitchell and two others.
He told a jury he didn't know Prince and wasn't present the night of the shooting.
The trial ended with a hung jury, but Prince was re-arrested for perjury after investigators discovered he had coerced Heriveaux to lie. He said when Prince was arrested, he told him he'd lie to investigators for him. "I was going to cover up for him," Heriveaux said.
Yesterday Heriveaux was back on the witness stand at Queens Supreme Court in Long Island City, this time a prosecution witness with a completely different account.
Heriveaux said he and Prince had been friends "for about a year" before the night of the shooting.
He said they went together with some friends to the club Traditions, and was driving Prince and others home when Prince got a call from his friend Eric Matteo, telling them to come to St. John's.
When they arrived, they saw Matteo and others arguing with another group.
Then, "one guy tried to sneak up behind Chris Prince," he testified.
Prince told him to back off, but the man came at him again and, "Chris Prince pulled out a gun" and fired once in the air, Heriveaux said. "Everyone started running."
Heriveaux said he ran to his car and waited for his cousin and Prince, then drove them home.

01 Jan Call To Attention – Mountain Pose
When January begins the feeling I'm most longing for is balance. After the excesses of the holidays many of us look to start the year with a more balanced diet and maybe a more balanced social life but the need for balance goes deeper for me. My rhythm and routine is all over the place. My sleep pattern is chaotic at best and I have completely lost track of what day it is. While in some ways I love the chaos I know like everything in the universe I feel better when I'm in a cycle and rhythm. The find thing I do is find a balance point and fix that intention in my mind. One Yoga posture more than any other aids me in this.
Samasthiti is the intention to stand in perfect balanced stillness & strength. The intention of Samasthiti is evoked in Mountain Pose which we often use to begin our Asana practice. Think of this as a call to attention, a method that brings you into the present & ready for the practice ahead.
With that intention in mind its easier to understand how Mountain Pose has real action. Its not an idle or nonchuant waiting in aline, its like a student preparing themselves for a master teacher or a solider awaiting the command of his general.
Samasthiti also provides a guide for all the postures that follow as it reminds us of this need to cultivate balance. This balance can be felt physically as we distribute our weight evenly through the body but also mentally as we channel and focus our thoughts. The Yoga Sutras talk of the mind as an almost incessant whirlpool what we tame through the practice of Yoga. Channeling our thoughts and giving them direction is one of Yogas most valuable lessons.
Alignment is key here. The feeling of standing in perfect balance physically will help the mind and spirit find that same intent.
On first impressions this can seem "easy" when in fact it's not. You will feel a strength & alertness (not tension or stress- STRENGTH) in every single muscle. Your breath and mind will focus.
I often begin practice here especially with beginners although mountain pose -Tadasana.
Il revisit this next week on our Youtube channel and guide you all through some key alignment tips.
OM Shanti

While much attention is paid to its WeChat messaging property, China-based tech giant Tencent still makes the majority of its money from gaming. In August, the firm reported that its mobile and PC gaming revenues combined had hit RMB28.4 billion ($4.3 billion) for Q2 2017, easily eclipsing the RMB10.1 billion ($1.5 billion) generated by its online advertising business during the quarter.
Still, Tencent is no slouch when it comes to generating income from digital ads. eMarketer estimates that the company's net digital ad revenues globally will total $5.81 billion this year, putting it in sixth place behind figures tallied by the world's largest tech firms: Google, Facebook, Alibaba, Baidu and Microsoft.
Tencent will also account for 12.4% of net mobile internet ad revenues in China this year, trailing both Alibaba and Baidu, by our estimates. But that share will climb to 16.6% in 2019.
However, Tencent is now looking beyond China to build out its advertising business, and is eyeing the US in particular. Last week, the company announced it was unveiling a new set of tools targeted at US brands looking to connect with Chinese consumers.
Although Tencent operates a number of different platforms—including Tencent Video, Tencent News and desktop-oriented chat platform QQ—the most obvious way for advertisers based in the US to find an audience would be through WeChat.
eMarketer estimates the service will have 494.3 million users in China this year, giving it a penetration rate of 79.1% among smartphone users there.
Tencent's killer app has evolved from a messaging platform to something more closely resembling an operating system, allowing users to do anything and everything from online banking to social networking to bill payment via WeChat's popular eponymous digital payment tool, WeChat Pay. Users of the app can go for days using only WeChat to order and pay for a range of goods and services such as taxis, entertainment and food.
Tencent is seeking to entice US-based brands and agencies by initially offering the new ad service with a dedicated sales team based out of California to help smooth out any issues in reaching target audiences in China. The ads will appear in WeChat's Moments feature, which uses a feed-style content publishing model.
One of Tencent's major selling points to advertisers is the deep trove of data it's managed to gather on its users. Because WeChat is used for so many different purposes, Tencent has an advantage over other ad publishers, which are often unable to solve the problems raised by cross-device and cross-platform consumer behaviors.
Tencent is also using the growing number of tourists from China visiting the US as a way to draw in US advertisers. The company says its targeting capabilities allow advertisers to begin messaging tourists from China headed to the US almost as soon as they've bought their airline tickets.
But even while Tencent is working hard to bolster its advertising revenues, it's been careful to moderate WeChat's ad load to ensure users aren't getting turned off by a deluge of copy. In fact, the company is limiting the number of ads users will see to one per day.
Tencent is clearly in no rush to push ads onto its users, a luxury afforded by the fact that WeChat has a long-established track record of generating income via transactions. But it clearly considers its advertising business important enough to invest in, with an eye to reaping dividends somewhere down the road.

Note: Of course, you may find some online video converter that can directly convert video with the video URL, so you don't need to download and install the application on computer that may occupy your CPU. However, I have tested various online video converters and there is nearly no one allowing you to convert YouTube to WAV format. Even worse, these online ones are very unstable during video converting, limited in output format and often offer advertising links with adware or plug-ins for you to download.
Therefore, it is highly recommended for you to use offline YouTube to WAV converters that are safer and more functional. 5KPlayer is the one that you can trust to convert YouTube to WAV without costing dime.

XP Brown is a versatile hair colour, which is fairly exciting despite its restrained nature. The play with brown shades is subtle and often apparent only upon closer look. This may be one of the greatest characteristics of this hair colour through being both ordinary and extraordinary at the same time. The XP200 Natural Flair Mocca shades are perfect for creating the trendy bronde look (a blend of brunette and blonde). The shades deliver rich, radiant colour with different tones and shades. Due to their slight ash reflex, they create browns that are never too red or warm. XP200 Natural Flair is a gentle ultra-cosmetic permanent hair colouring cream featuring plant extracts to respect the hair and create gorgeous, natural colour results. Its gentle formula is created using natural extract from palm seed and coconut to protect against damage and guarantee shade stability whilst creating the most natural, translucent colour effects. The XP200 Permanent colour range includes over 60 natural and reflex shades; including coppers, ashes, reds and golds all containing micro colour pigments for better penetration and longer lasting colour. The Super lightener series is enriched with vitamin C for optimal condition when lifting up to 4.5 levels.

text: As I wander around Glasgow admiring the striking buildings produced during the Industrial Revolution, I remember reading somewhere that the worst job ever was that of chimney sweep. Beginning at the age of six, these "climbing boys" were made to shimmy up the flues of chimneys, 14 inches by 9 inches wide, with several sharp twists along the way. To harden the sweeps' knees and elbows against the awful scraping, their masters would stand them nightly before a hot fire and rub brine into their bodies with a wire brush. Often the sweeps got stuck in the chimneys and suffocated in the soot – or burned to death from the heat. Almost all developed bodily deformities, blindness and "chimney sweep cancer", an excruciating and fatal disease of the scrotum. The coal whose dust they "swept" was itself mined by men working under conditions only slightly better than their own. Glasgow was built by the Industrial Revolution. Its wealth came from textile mills that were powered by the vast coal deposits nearby, as well as from international trade in, among other things, tobacco and slaves. Glasgow became one of the richest cities in the world – "the Second City of the British Empire" – and its story reflects the history of the industrial age. In many ways it has been an extraordinary journey, propelled by human ingenuity, inquisitiveness and imagination, as well as human greed. But as the chimney sweeps' short and miserable lives bear witness, it came also at enormous human cost.

Last week I could not go to the club night as Tim, my husband, was down in Nelson, and Mum, who would be my second choice in babysitter, was in Melbourne. I guess I could have had my Dad or Mother-in-law come over but club starts right on bedtime, and I just know that our girl would not have gone to sleep well and the next day would have been a nightmare. So I decided to submit images but not attend – therefore I do not know the reasoning behind the judges decisions, but I am happy nonetheless.
In the Open subject I submitted an image of a succulent I had recently taken. Truth be told, I think it is 'nice' but not my normal. I just didn't have much else worth submitting so thought I would give it a go. It got a Highly Commended.
The image I submitted for the set subject of 'Brown' was one I took when I borrowed a macro lens from a lovely lady at club (big thank you to Jenny!). I was desperate. Brown was a really hard challenge for me for some reason. It took a lot of post processing to clean up the shell, and I fudged the sharpening on the tip (it was not completely in focus to start with), so I decided to add an 'artistic' spin blur to the image. Judge must have like the fibonacci effect, it received an Honours.
This week at club was a talk from a member about her trip to Brazil and the incredibly Ignazu Falls. She (sorry, the name escapes me at present) had some incredible images and even more incredibly stories to tell and I enjoyed the show. We also had a slightly less exciting but very informative slideshow about landscape photography from Bob McCree. I truly respect this man's work and he is not only an artist but a technical genius when it comes to photography. Look him up, he does some beautiful award winning work.
Next week the set subject is Fiery. I did a photoshoot with model a few months ago with this as the theme but I am not so sure a judge will 'get' it, so am looking at other avenues of boring ol' burning things. Wish me luck, I only have the next 3 days to produce something as the weekend is going to be cray cray busy!

Why victims of triple talaq want punishment for male offenders
New Delhi, Jan 2: While the contentious subject of criminalisation of triple talaq (the practice under which a Muslim man can divorce his wife by simply uttering the word "talaq" three times) has left various Muslim groups and political parties divided, the victims of triple talaq strongly bat for punishment for 'male offenders' in the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill 2017.
The bill after being passed in the Lok Sabha recently is all set to be tabled in the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday during the Winter Session of Parliament.
If the bill gets a green signal in the Upper House of Parliament as well and thus becomes a law, practice of triple talaq will not only become "criminal" but will attract a punishment of three years in jail for men who divorce their wives using triple talaq.
Speaking to ANI, a victim of instant triple talaq, Farhana, welcomed the provision of punishment in the bill.
On Monday, Farhana asked all political parties to support the bill in the Rajya Sabha.
Victims of triple talaq say the punishment of three years would be a credible deterrence.
"It should be passed in the Rajya Sabha, and the Opposition parties should also extend their support. We all will be benefited because the provision of punishment of three years would make people think before taking this step," Farhana told ANI.
After Farhana's husband left for Saudi Arabia without telling her or meeting their daughter, her in-laws told her that she would have to leave her husband's home in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh.
Now, all eyes are on the Congress, whose stance may decide the fate of the bill in the Upper House.
The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government lacks a majority in the House and the opposition has joined hands many times to embarrass the Narendra Modi dispensation.
According to reports, the Congress is likely to consult a larger opposition before finalising its stand on the contentious bill.
Reports add that leader of opposition in the Upper House Ghulam Nabi Azad has convened a meeting of the leaders of his party (the Congress) as well as other parties in his Parliament chamber on Tuesday before the bill is taken up.

All of us do. What if someone had been willing to walk with them through their crisis before they divorced? Would things have turned out differently?
Christian Marriages In Crisis is a Birmingham based ministry working to restore marriages through Christ bringing healing and lasting intimacy. Paul and Suzanne Talley founded CMIC in 2010, after spending 18 years as foreign missionaries and 6 years in the secular workforce. Since then, CMIC has counseled over 165 couples, with 96% of those who completed the program still married today.
Paul holds an MA in Theology and is a certified Pastoral Sex Addiction Professional (PSAP) and Suzanne is certified in Marriage and Healthy Sexuality. CMIC ministers to couples through individual and couples workshops, private counseling, and church workshops.
Unlike a clinical counseling firm, Paul and Suzanne do not clock in and out, billing couples by the hour, but "walk" with couples on a daily basis while trusting God to provide the needed funds. Their goal is to never turn aside a couple in crisis. CMIC relies on donations to fund the extra time spent instead of a normal hourly rate that would place the cost well beyond the reach of most couples,
They do this by walking with couples in crisis in a nonjudgmental and understanding way. "We are able to do this because we've been there ourselves. God redeemed our broken relationship and brought harmony to our marriage. God brought people into our lives that walked with us in a spirit of gentleness and we want to do the same with others."
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."

Research Agenda 2019
Welcome to our 2019 Research Agenda which sets out the topics and themes our 150 strong analyst and consultant team will be focusing on in the coming year.

As outlined in Ovum's 2025 research series, broadband connectivity will be central to the second digital revolution and will remain the core revenue source for consumer-focused telecommunications operators. To remain competitive, service providers must look for new ways to differentiate their broadband access products, which will increasingly become commoditized. The home network is one potential area of differentiation, but it comes at a cost, and service providers will need to invest and position their products wisely.
Since it was first developed in the 1990s, Wi-Fi has become one of the most successful radio access technologies in the world, and today it is used in the home networks of millions of users to connect devices such as PCs, smart TVs, and media streamers. With users streaming ever-greater amounts of high-definition video content around the home, Wi-Fi technology has had to keep pace, and future standards are already under development that will be capable of speeds of multiple gigabits per second. However, as with all wireless technologies, issues of interference and reach will remain.
With broadband access having become nearly as critical to daily lives as electricity, the quality of Wi-Fi service – the most common final link in the supply chain – has also grown in importance. In a recent Ovum survey, respondents cited reliability as the most important characteristic of a high-quality broadband service, followed by good customer service when things go wrong; having a good Wi-Fi signal in every room; and fast broadband speeds.
The same survey showed that the majority of respondents saw room for improvement in their Wi-Fi services, with 40% rating their Wi-Fi network adequate to very poor. Consumers see the home network as important, and they also see it very much as the responsibility of their broadband service provider, which puts providers in a difficult position: The home network is an expensive part of the network for them to control.
Service providers' main marketing strategies are still focused on speed, but they are starting to realize that it is pointless to deliver speeds of hundreds of megabits per second to a user's home if the final connection to the device isn't fit for purpose. One such provider is Waoo in Denmark, which has deployed an advanced Wi-Fi solution to reduce "weak spots" in the home by 49 percentage points, boosting customer satisfaction in the process.
Strategic positioning of advanced home-networking solutions will be critical to success, since each home is different and will benefit more from some solutions than others. Operators shouldn't waste investment by placing advanced technology where it isn't needed, but they do need to find a way that is cost-effective – for both them and their customer – to implement it where it is needed, if they expect such customers to remain loyal to their brand.
