(Sudbury – Nov. 15, 2018)
LUFA has been informed that there is misinformation being circulated regarding the workload credit grievance. As previously reported, LUFA is seeking to have the special deal that was negotiated with the members, implemented. (i.e., 12 credit workload for faculty members of the Faculty of Arts).
The Dean of Arts circulated the following memo on Tuesday, Nov. 13:
"Hello / Bonjour,
Please see the message below from the Interim Dean of Arts:
Veuillez consulter le message ci-dessous de la doyenne intérimaire:
As you know, the 12-credit workload issue in the Faculty of Arts has been an ongoing conversation since it was trialed for this academic year. I wanted to share that a decision to end the trial has been made for the 2019-2020 academic year and in line with current Collective Agreement language, the Faculty of Arts will again be assigned a 15-credit workload. Thank you."
These statements are inaccurate. It was never stated that the 12-credit workload was being "trialed for a year."
It is our position that the previous Dean has committed to a 12-credit workload for the duration of the collective agreement through having negotiated directly with the members in the Faculty of Arts, and that therefore the members of the Faculty of Arts must be provided the necessary resources for a 12-credit workload for the balance of the life of the collective agreement.
We are very concerned that the Administration's action in rolling back the reduction to 12 credits is retaliation for LUFA having filed a grievance. The grievance asserted that the previous Dean acted inappropriately, both contrary to the collective agreement and the Labour Relations Act in implementing this change.
In order to ensure an equitable workload, we also sought as a remedy in the grievance that all faculty members should be moved to a 12-credit workload for the duration of the collective agreement and they should be provided the necessary resources to implement that workload. Our aim was not to see a rollback of these positive changes for members of the Faculty of Arts, but rather to ensure that all members were treated equitably.
We informed the administration that we were happy to continue the committee work to help achieve a 12-credit workload on a long term basis and in preparation for the next round of bargaining, but this would be independent from the remedy we were seeking through the grievance and/or unfair labour practice. LUFA continues to assert that members are entitled to the 12 credits for the duration of the agreement. We hope that the parties can find a long term solution during negotiations in 2020. The administration has indicated a willingness to continue these discussions in advance of bargaining.
Our position is that the Administration cannot now roll back the change to 12 credits and that it is a violation of the collective agreement and the Labour Relations Act for them to do so. We will be challenging this action.

Beyond race, faith, politics, class, sex or age, football is the great global religion. One of the most striking phenomena of the early 21st century is how the popularity of the game the British invented 150 years ago has exploded, attracting millions of new devotees. Women everywhere are flocking to the game, as are the hitherto pagan peoples of China, Japan and the United States. At the epicenter of this vast but benevolent explosion are David Beckham and the club he joined in 2003, Real Madrid.
Love David Beckham or hate him, no sportsman in the world provokes more widespread fascination than the Londoner with the film-star looks. No sports team anywhere exudes more glamour, has won more competitions or boasted more superstar talent than Real Madrid. White Angels narrates the inside story of Beckham's transfer to Real, the machinations and intrigue behind the deal. It exhaustively details Beckham's first year at Real, and how he fared on the field and tells how the fusion of the two created the most profitable club in world sport. John Carlin has had unique access to the Real Madrid team, travelling with them on the team plane, staying with them in hotels around the world and conducting interviews with such global celebrities as Ronaldo, Raúl, Luis Figo, Roberto Carlos and Zinedine Zidane -- as well as with Beckham himself and the club's charismatic president, Florentino Pérez.

The Presidency, yesterday, confirmed the release of 21 Chibok school girls, following dialogue with leaders of Boko Haram, their abductors, after 911 days in captivity.
"We can confirm that 21 of the girls were released, safely, to us by 5.30 this Thursday morning (yesterday) and they were flown to Kaduna from the location of their release. This is the most glaring manifestation, to date, of the unwavering commitment of Mr. President to secure safe release of the girls and reunite them with their families. It is also a result of the round-the-clock efforts by the administration to put a closure to the sad issue of the kidnap of the girls. We expect the released girls to land in Abuja shortly,' the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said.
According to the minster, "there is no truth in reports that the girls were swapped with detained Boko Haram insurgents. The girls' release was secured based on a very delicate negotiation and confidence built over the time," he stressed.
It had been earlier reported that the girls were freed in a swap for detained Boko Haram leaders. According to the report, four detained Boko Haram leaders were released on Wednesday night at Banki, a town on the northeast border with Cameroon.
The girls were among the 219 students abducted by the insurgents in Chibok, Borno State, on April 14, 2014.
One of them, Amina Ali Nkeki, had earlier this year, escaped from the abductors' grip and was received by President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Negotiations failed last year, when Boko Haram demanded a ransom of $5.2 billion for the girls' freedom, according to a recently published authorized biography of President Muhammadu Buhari by American historian, John Paden.
Indeed, an elated President Buhari, who jetted out to Germany, yesterday, welcomed the release of the girls and promised to discuss the issue with the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel.
"As I depart Abuja for Germany on an official visit, I welcome the release of 21 of our Chibok Girls, following successful negotiations," Buhari said on Twitter, a few minutes after the news broke out.
"The Department of State Services (DSS) has briefed me on the matter, and will continue to provide updates. Cooperation on the security and humanitarian situation in the Northeast will form a significant part of my discussions with Chancellor Merkel," he added.
Freedom for the 21 girls elicited joy in the Borno State Government House and from the Bring Back Our Girls group, BBOG, which has been in the vanguard of the crusade to get the girls freed.
In the absence of President Buhari, the girls were received by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
Welcoming the girls, Osinbajo said:
"Welcome back girls!"
"I am sure you know that the whole country has been waiting for you to come back, all these many months, the whole country has been waiting that, one day, we will see you again and we are very happy to see you back!
"We are going to bring your parents, your parents will be coming here to join you.
"You can't immediately be taken out of here because we need to be sure that you are in very good health.
"I am sure you are going to be very well taken care of. We have provided very good accommodation for you where you will stay, where you will sleep and your parents will come and meet you there also.
"We are also going to see to it that everything that you require going forward, perhaps your education, those who need to go back to school, those who need to find employment, we are going to make that we make all the provisions for you."
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, who also confirmed the release of the 21 girls, stated that the the girls, who were in the custody of the DSS would be received by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. The girls were eventually received by Osinbajo and other dignitaries, including the First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari and Information Minister, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.
The names of released girls
The 21 girls whose names were released, last night, by the Presidency, included Mary Usman Bulama; Jummai John; Blessing Abana; Lugwa Sanda; Comfort Habila; Maryam Basheer; Comfort Amos; Glory Mainta; Saratu Emmanuel; Deborah Ja'afaru; Rahab Ibrahim and Helen Musa.
Others are Maryamu Lawan; Rebecca Ibrahim; Asabe Goni; Deborah Andrawus; Agnes Gapani; Saratu Markus; Glory Dama; Pindah Nuhu; and Rebecca Mallam.
"The release of the girls, in a limited number, is the outcome of negotiations between the administration and the Boko Haram brokered by the International Red Cross and the Swiss government. The negotiations will continue. The President welcomes the release of the girls but cautioned Nigerians to be mindful of the fact that more than 30,000 fellow citizens were killed via terrorism," Shehu said in a statement.
FG assembles team of doctors, psychologists, others for freed girls
Ahead of the arrival of the girls in Abuja, Lai Mohammed told journalists that the Federal Government had assembled a team of medical doctors, psychologists, social workers, trauma experts, etc, to properly examine the girls, especially because they had been in captivity for so long.
He also disclosed that government will adequately debrief the girls and had started contacting their parents as part of the necessary verification exercise.
How the deal was struck
On how the deal was struck, the minister said: "We have been working on the safe release of the girls and following all the leads available. In this instance, the moment we had a credible lead, Mr President gave the green-light to the DSS to pursue it. We can confirm that the DSS pursued the lead in collaboration with a friendly European country and a renowned international humanitarian organization. The DSS was supported by the military.
"As soon as the necessary confidence was built on both sides, the parties agreed on the date and the location of the release of the 21 girls. Please, note that this is not a swap. It is a release, the product of painstaking negotiations and trust on both sides.
"We see this as a credible first step in the eventual release of all the Chibok Girls in captivity. It is also a major step in confidence-building between us as a government and the Boko Haram leadership on the issue of the Chibok Girls."
Confirming the medical and psychological attention the government was paying to the girls, Mr. Laolu Akande, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo's spokesman, in a tweet, said, the "FG is now gathering medical and other support and care in Abuja for the just released 21 Chibok girls."
BBOG lauds FG, urges adequate security for others
The Bring Back Our Girls BBOG movement has commended the Federal Government and its international partners for yesterday's "negotiated release of 21 of our abducted ChibokGirls."
In a statement issued in Abuja, the BBOG said the action has further confirmed the capacity of government to rescue all the girls.
"We welcome reports from the Presidential Spokesperson, Garba Shehu, of the negotiated release of 21 of our abducted Chibok girls today. This wonderful development confirms what we have always known about the capacity of our government to rescue our Chibok girls. The movement further asked the Federal Government to ensure the safety and well-being of those still in captivity.
Borno govt expresses joy
The Borno State Government also expressed happiness over the release of the 21 Chibok schoolgirls.
Speaking on the development, Governor, Kashim Shettima, in a statement by Malam Isa Gusau, spokesman to the Borno Governor, said: "As people of Borno State troubled by the deaths and destruction of Boko Haram insurgency, one of our major sources of strength since May 29, 2015, has been the undiluted sincerity we saw in President Muhammadu Buhari based on his administration's absolutely genuine commitment towards recovering our schoolgirls, thousands of other women and children held in captivity, as well as ending the insurgency in order to secure the lives of our citizens and make way for reconstruction, resettlement and other development programmes and projects.
"We had faith in Buhari from the very day he took off as President. The steps he kept on taking in dealing with the insurgency continuously proved his sincerity. If any Nigerian or members of the international community had doubts about the sincerity and commitment of President Muhammadu Buhari to the rescue of our precious daughters abducted by Boko Haram insurgents at Government Secondary School, Chibok on April 14, 2014, the rescue of all other abducted Nigerians and very importantly, his sincerity in working towards ending the Boko Haram insurgency, such doubts must by now be laid to rest.
Governor Shettima left Abuja with President Muhammadu Buhari' as part of the Presidential delegation to Germany.
Saraki, Harriman, others hail girls' freedom
Senate President Bukola Saraki hailed President Buhari for the release of the 21 Chibok schoolgirls, just as he restated the commitment of the Senate to support the Federal Government to secure the release of the other girls.
In a statement from his Media office, yesterday, the Senate President said: "We join all Nigerians to rejoice on the return of our daughters. Our thoughts and prayers remain with the families of those who have returned, and those girls who remain in the hands of the terrorists. It is our hope that the release of more of the girls is imminent and that our nation remains vigilant in the face of the continued crisis in North East Nigeria."
Former member of the House of Representatives and All Progressives Congress, APC, chieftain, Temi Harriman, also praised the tenacity of purpose of the Bring Back Our Girls group, saying their patriotism should be well emulated.
Harriman, who noted that two of the kidnapped girls, Hauwa Ali 16, and Zainab Yaga 17, at the time of the abduction, were siblings of two of her aides, commended the sacrifice of the BBOG in its advocacy.
Founder-President of the Wellbeing Foundation Africa, Mrs Toyin Saraki, said the news that 21 Chibok girls were released by Boko Haram to the Nigerian government was cheery.
"I am delighted to learn, from preliminary news reports, of the release of 21 girls abducted in the north-east of Nigeria 911 days ago. This news, coming just two days after the International Day of the Girl Child, is a testament to the perseverance and a testimony to the persistence of all efforts to find our missing girls, and we are grateful for their restoration to freedom.
"In the coming days, weeks, months, and years, we hope the 21 released girls, 18 of whom are reported to be nursing mothers, and all other victims of forcible disappearances around the world, will receive the necessary psycho-social counselling, in efforts to ensure their holistic rehabilitation and well-being," she said.
Release of Chibok girls diversionary, address hunger, Fayose tells FG
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, described the celebration of the Federal Government over the release of 21 Chibok girls by the Boko Haram, as not only diversionary but also a tactic to divert the attention of Nigerians away from the hunger and outrage generated by crackdown on judges.
The governor said: "Nigerians have had enough of anti-corruption war," adding that it is high time President Buhari addressed massive hunger killing many people in the country.
Fayose said this, yesterday, at the commissioning of a three-block classrooms built at the Erelu Adebayo Children's Home in Iyin Ekiti, Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government Area as part of activities marking his second year in office.
In his words: "What they came out today to tell Nigerians that 21 abducted Chibok girls have been released by the Boko Haram group is diversionary. Nigerians have never had it so bad. People are very hungry. What they did today is just to divert attention from what they did last week by clamping judges and justices into detention. While no one is saying corruption should be condoned, the due process must be followed."
Tinubu congratulates Buhari
The news of the release of the 21 Chibok girls came to me as a delightful relief. I congratulate the families of these young ladies who have endured so much anxiety and pain on account of this horrendous experience. I am also grateful that these budding young stars now have the opportunity to again pursue their dreams and aspirations. I know there is road to recovery and readjustment ahead, but I am confident that the support of their families, our communities, and the assistance of our many collaborators at home, and internationally provided the tools required for this.
I also congratulate and thank President Buhari for his steadfastness and dogged effort in ensuring the release of these girls. I salute our gallant men and women in uniform who continue to make sacrifices on our behalf and have remained focused in the hot pursuit of the terrorists."

I am loving this frugal life:)Thanks so much for giving me this idea. One idea for a cheap meal is green beans, ham and potatoes in the crock pot. Also breakfast for supper is always a hit. Last week we ate at home all week, what a huge success for my family as we are always on the go!ReplyDelete
I try and pop into my local grocery store in the evening as they tend to reduce the price of veg, bread and meat considerably. The downside - I've to be really careful not to get enticed by things I don't need!ReplyDelete
I have a vegetarian chili in the crockpot right now...I'll let you know how it turns out! :)ReplyDelete

SASKATCHEWAN, Canada (WKRN)- Cattle is typically herded by ranchers on horseback with maybe an energetic dog helping to corral the bovines.
But in Canada, some ranch owners spotted a different type of herder.
Ranch owner Adrienne Ivey and her husband were checking on their 150 heifers when they saw a bold beaver leading the herd.
Ivey told Storyful that the livestock "were enchanted by the cute little guy, and followed him everywhere!"
"We knew that people would get a great chuckle out of it because you cannot get more Canadian than that," said Ivey, who posted the odd leadership on YouTube.

The second and concluding week consisted of the compilation of the final Tech Club video to be presented to the learners' parents on Thursday. Most days were spent refining the Matandani improvement videos with some groups retaking scenes on three separate occasions to perfect their video. Here, a learner named Christopher explains the benefits that the new printer and photocopier have brought to the school.
In further preparation of the final video, the instructors taught the learners proper interviewing techniques so they could record the opinions of teachers as well as younger learners. By the sixth day the final video was shaping up quite nicely with creative interviews from the learners, detailed interviews from the adults, and adorable interviews from the children. The learners were excited to see all their work together in one piece in the rough draft of the final video. Below, standard 3 learner, Salome Kaole talks about the introduction of the iPads at Matandani.
The last aspect of videography the learners picked up was video editing. A day was spent rotating small groups between filming and meeting with either Vicki or Kyle to delve into the intricacies of iMovie. In iMovie, the learners got practice splicing video clips, cutting out unusable footage, manipulating audio of clips, adding sound effects and music, and putting titles on interviews.
Soon enough, Thursday came along and once the parents filed in, the Tech Club learners began registering them on the OneCourse software. The parents then enjoyed a ten-minute session on Chichewa and masamu. They enjoyed it so much that they were very disappointed when the session ended. The kids then showcased all the pictures and videos they took over the past week and half, greatly impressing their parents with their familiarity and skill with the iPad technology. Some groups even taught the parents how to take a picture!
The meat of the meeting came with the presentation of the revised final video. All eyes were glued to the projector screen as the learners reveled in the display of their efforts and the parents marveled at the quality of their children's work. As a final hurrah, everyone was shown a bird's eye tour of Matandani taken via drone camera. Andy acquired the footage and Kyle assembled and edited the video. It was a day filled with praise and good feeling.
On Friday, for the final day of Tech club, the learners were shown the movie, Black Panther as a celebration of their hard work and determination in the club. The kids enjoyed drinks and popcorn as they cheered for king Tchala's victories.

'A win is a win, I'd take 8-7' - Klopp pleased with Liverpool victory despite defensive lapse
Jurgen Klopp insists Liverpool's job is only half done after their 2-1 win away at Hoffenheim in the Champions League play-off round, but is pleased with how his team handled the game.
Trent Alexander-Arnold's fine free-kick and Havard Nordtveit's own goal appeared to have put the Reds on the brink of qualification, but a late Mark Uth strike brought Hoffenheim back into the tie.
And, despite enjoying his side becoming the first team to win at the Wirsol Rhein-Neckar-Arena since May 2016, Klopp has called for an improvement ahead of the return leg at Anfield.

"If somebody told me we would win we would take any scoreline – even an 8-7 – so I am happy about the result," Klopp said. "No, I'm not happy with the goal they scored, but I think they deserved the goal for their effort over the 90 minutes.
"They had their moments, especially when they changed a little bit their style of play, but we were very offensive on both wings, and that left Trent and Alberto (Moreno) alone."
"The result is okay. The first half is done and if you said before the game we would win, I would take the result.

Klopp was pleased with the way his Liverpool team attacked Tuesday's opponents, particularly at the start of the second half, but he acknowledged that his side were too open before the interval.
"Hoffenheim had a specific plan to play," he said. "We gambled a little too much on the wing - it was a little dangerous in the first half.
"But, as always when we play football, we found spaces in between and created wonderful chances."


text: I know this is an endless debate. I've always been a tube amp guy. When I think of ss, I have a prejudice of thinking harsh, buzzy tone. However, I just keep seeing ss amps that look cool, and seem to get good reviews. So I'd really like to get past this in my head if it's not true.. and open up my world to a whole new side of amps. So who here uses SS successfully? What are some of the universal differences in tone? Does anyone here actually prefer ss to tube? It seems like all the ad campaigns focus on SS amps trying to sound like tube amps. Is this just the trendy market dictating this? Or are ss amps catagorically inferior tube amp wannabe's? Or are they their own thing that pros with good tone have used? I know that this seems like a silly post. But I'm a babe in the woods when it comes to ss amps. My first few amps were ss when I was a kid. I hated them.. but then again they were cheap beginner amps and I didn't know how to dial in a tone anway. Would it have made a difference?

Our Purpose:
Elke was created for all tween girls- for girls with courage and soul. Elke is a brand of clothing that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but is also functional and can move through the day with every tween girl. My eldest daughter was the inspiration behind every item in this range. Her conversations with me about life, the challenges and triumphs she faces, her goals and desires. We worked together to create a range of clothing that addressed the needs of all tween girls, and she even designed our blush and blue prints which can be seen in our Summer and Autumn ranges. Harper is very proud of what she has been able to help me create, and she hopes that every tween girl will love it too.
Our Vision:
We have created a range that is kind to our planet- Elke is a label that has embraced the slow fashion movement and is a sustainable and ethical brand. We our proud to say that we have taken every effort to ensure every item is produced as environmentally friendly as possible, and we have worked closely with our artisans to source fabric that is organic and sustainably produced.
Every item in our first two ranges is designed to be worn together in different ways, allowing you to create the maximum amount of looks with minimal pieces. We are working on future ranges that will be able to work back in with initial ranges- meaning your Elke clothes will never be out of fashion, and along with being made of the highest possible quality, your Elke clothes will last year after year.
Who We Work With:
At Elke we work closely with our agent to ensure that we can offer sustainable and ethical textile manufacturing. The facility we currently use prides itself on high quality production with sophisticated and transparent production operation, ecological waste management systems, and a clean and safe work environment where workers are paid accordingly to and above the award wage. Because they strive to reduce their own footprint on our planet, our agent encourages their clients the use of either sustainable natural fibres which is why all Elke products are made from either Linen or 100% cotton.

Gluten-Free, Soy-Free, Oil-Free, Grain-Free, Refined-Sugar-Free, Vegan (of course!)
Chocolate Cream Pie is my absolute favorite pie! Every Thanksgiving and Christmas my grandmother makes it homemade, and I am always the first to get my hands (and mouth!!) on it! As the holidays are just around the corner, I do not wish to be saddened by the missing void of chocolate cream pie; therefore, I have created this DELICIOUS, VEGAN Chocolate Cream Pie!! Just as rich and creamy as a traditional chocolate cream pie, this decadent dessert with certainty be a hit at your family holiday gathering! Nobody will even know it's vegan!
Plus, if you're like me and do not enjoy pie crust (call me crazy), you are going to love this three-ingredient (two-ingredient if you don't count the water), grain-free, fruit-sweetened, and flourless pie crust!
- One and a half cups of pecans
- 10 pitted medjool dates, soaked in hot water
- Three tbsp. of water
Chocolate Layer:
- The cooked and mashed flesh from one large Japanese sweet potato (a regular sweet potato should work, but I cannot guarantee the flavor will be the same)
- 1/3 of a cup of cocoa powder
- 1/3 of a cup of almond milk
- 1/4 of a cup of maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 of a tsp. of vanilla
- Dash of salt
Cream Layer:
- The cream from one can of full-fat coconut milk, chilled well (See notes!)
- Two to three tbsp. of maple syrup
- One and a 1/2 tsp. of vanilla
Optional Topping:
- Crushed vegan chocolate
How to make:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, line a pie pan with parchment paper, and place a large bowl into your freezer to chill.
- Pit the dates, then place the dates in a small bowl with enough hot water to cover them for five minutes.
- Blend the pecans in a food processor until they are ground, then take the dates out of their water and blend them into the ground pecans until a sticky, smooth batter forms. Add water as needed when blending (I used three tbsp.)
- Pour the crust batter into the lined pie pan and form the crust.
- Bake the crust for 15 minutes.
- While the crust bakes, place the chocolate layer ingredients into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- After 15 minutes, take the crust out of the oven and pour the chocolate layer into the crust and spread it out evenly, then bake the pie for 15 minutes.
- Once the pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
- Once the pie is completely cool, make the cream by mixing the coconut cream with a hand mixer in the chilled bowl from the freezer until smooth and fluffy, then mix in the maple syrup and vanilla until smooth and fully combined.
- Pour the cream on top of the pie evenly, then sprinkle crushed vegan chocolate over the pie (if using.)
- Serve and enjoy!
Recipe Notes:
- Place your unopened can of coconut milk into your freezer for three hours, then open the can and scoop out the thick, white coconut cream from the top of the can. Use the thick cream only for this recipe, not the water from the bottom of the can. You can discard the water or you can save it for a different recipe like a smoothie.
- You can also place the unopened can of coconut milk into your refrigerator at least 24 hours before making this recipe to achieve the cream and water separation, instead of the freezer method.
- Using room-temperature canned coconut milk will not work for this recipe, because the coconut cream and the water will not be separated.

- To spend
N26.446 billion on capital projects
The Chief of the Naval Staff, (CNS) Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas has disclosed that the Nigerian Navy confiscated Navy confiscated crude oil and diesel worth about
N420 billion in 2016.
Giving details of the activities of the Navy in his 2017 budget defence at the House of Representatives, the CNS disclosed that the specific quantity of crude oil and diesel confiscated stood at 810,725 and 1,078 metric tonnes respectively.
The Navy Chief also disclosed that for the year 2017, the Nigerian Navy plans to expend about
N26.446 billion on capital projects with the priority areas listed as fleet renewal, operational infrastructure upgrade, operational logistics procurement, capacity development and personnel welfare.
Giving a breakdown of the achievements of the Service in 2016, the CNS revealed that the Nigerian Navy destroyed 181 illegal refineries, 263 wooden boats, 38 barges, 139 Geepee tanks, 148 pumping machines, arrested 784 suspects, 22 crude vessels, 53 wooden boats, 145 outboard engines, 135 speed boats, 27 tankers, seized 2,974 drums and recovered 468 arms, 1,659 ammunitions in 2016.
Furthermore, he said the Nigerian Navy confiscated 210 storage tanks, 47 vehicles, 15 motorcycles, 4,753 jerrycans, 27 power generating sets, 224 surface tanks, 24 hoses, 17 welding machines and 33 other vessels, reiterating that the feat was despite the reduction in overhead with only
N2.5bn released out of about N3.4bn appropriated in 2016.
He said out of the N56.463 billion appropriated for personnel cost in 2016,
N49.656bn was released, while the sum of N205.879 million was generated as Internally Generated Revenue and remitted to the government via the Treasury Single Account (TSA).
Earlier, the chairman House Committee on Navy Honourable Abdulsamad Dasuki commended the Nigerian Navy for performing credibly well, despite insufficient funding and other operational challenges, promising that the committee would ensure adequate allocation of fund for the maintenance and fuelling of Nigerian Navy platforms.
The Chairman, however, observed that an estimated
N3trillion ($10bn) was lost in revenue due to Nigerian Navy's inability to carry out statutory duties, reiterating that the Navy's budgetary allocations must be realistic.

Caroline Forbes on The Vampire Diaries has a very cool room. It's almost a little boho…like something you'd expect Bonnie to have. Either way, I love it!
Caroline has a vase with tall calla lilly's. Head on over to your local craft store (like Jo-Ann Fabrics or Michaels) and buy a simple vase and several fake calla lilly's.
Try: Nearly Natural Calla Lily Silk Flower Arrangement
Her walls are a pretty soft and warm yellow.
Try: Try Benjamin Moore Showtime 923 for accents. House Beautiful describes it as a "warm, yolky yellow." For the walls try either Dalila or Sundance (both by Benjamin Moore.)
Caroline has a horizontally hanging mirror. Look for something that is gold with ornate details, or a gold mosaic frame.
Try: Mirror, 'Visionary' at Novica or Sonora Mirror or Rosalie Mirror
There's a tiny little wreath as decoration on her wall. It's got purple flowers, which could be violets or bunched and dried lavender.
Try: Wild Sweetness Swag & Dried Lavender Bunches
Notice the hanging woven lamp?
Try: Japanese Style Hanging Ceiling Lantern
She has white sheers and white curtains with a paisley design.
Try: Silk Paisley Window Panel (Less expensive options from World Market are: Bamboo Leaf Curtains and Lyrical Branch Curtains. I think Caroline's room is very World Market-y.)
There's a four photo picture frame hanging on her wall.
Try: 4 Picture Frame

Sermon Outline, May 26, 2019 "For Such a Time as This"
For Such a Time as This
Esther 4
Courage is Grounded by Confidence!
Be Confident in God's Purpose!
Romans 8:28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.
Be Confident in God's Presence!
Hebrews 13:5 Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,"
Matthew 28:20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."
Psalm 139:7-10 7 Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.
9 If I take the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand will lead me,
And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
Be Confident in God's Sovereignty!
Revelation 19:6 Then I heard something like the voice of a great multitude and like the sound of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying, "Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.
Ephesians 3:20 Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us,
Courage is Fueled by Love!
Love for Others!
John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.
Love for Truth!
I Corinthians 13:6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
Courage is Inspired by Faith!
Courage inspired by faith takes a Bold Risk!
Matthew 10:32 "Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven.
Luke 12:4-5 4 "I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will warn you whom to fear: fear the One who, after He has killed, has authority to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear Him!
Courage inspired by faith pleases God!
Romans 11:20 Quite right, they were broken off for their unbelief, but you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear;
II Corinthians 5:7 for we walk by faith, not by sight—
Romans 5:1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

Here are a couple Zenisms
that have been floating around the Internet lately:
There is nothing that duct tape or roses can't fix. - John Egils Avots, Laiva
In the long run, all solutions
are temporary, so go ahead and use duct tape.
Nothing is so permanent as a good temporary fix. - John Reinhart
The minimalist theory of maintenance: If it
doesn't move and it should, spray it with WD40. If it does move and it shouldn't, wrap it
with duct tape.
Peanut butter works on old sticker/duct tape glue. - John Bachrach (Hunter's brother), Flagstaff, AZ

This new ship here is fitted according to the reported increase of knowledge among mankind. Namely, she is cumbered end to end, with bells and trumpets and clock and wires . . . she can call voices out of the air of the waters to con the ship while her crew sleep. But sleep Thou lightly.

An inspiration to do
it now - before a cruise ship is your only option...
If it ain't broke only a Sailor will fix it. When is good, good enough? Is it just the paranoid in all of us, or just the need to repair that keeps us fooling around with stuff that just might go bad? Work all day on that one thing that may not need fixing and have a great sense of accomplishment. Oh I guess we call that Maintenance! - DPRMAR
Still on the subject of boat repairs: "Working on the boat is the reason for owning a boat. Going on a voyage is only to ensure that there will be something to work on when you get back." - spotted in 48 North by Bob Beda, LaBoo
Saline, Saline... Karen Wilhoite warns "Sailors
who wear contact lenses should watch out for salt water in their
eyes. According to a sailing friend, when she got salt water
in her eyes while wearing contact lenses, she was unable to see.
Her eyes focus properly while wearing the lenses when the saline
solution is properly balanced. The salt water changed the balance
and she was unable to see clearly." Which is kind of important.
