Edward Onoja, Chief of Staff to Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi, on Wednesday, alleged that Dino Melaye gave false information to the police implicating him in criminal activities.
Melaye, the senator representing Kogi West, is charged with two counts bordering on giving false information to the police.
Testifying in the case before Justice Olasumbo Goodluck, Onoja said Melaye also told the police that he was the mastermind of an assassination attempt on him.
Onoja being led in evidence by the prosecution counsel, Shuaibu Labaran, said: "I got to know about the allegations against me in a publication in an online medium, Sahara Reporters, by my personal assistant.
"The defendant accused me of criminal activities, including gunrunning, assassination attempt and orchestrating a grand plan to bring the government I serve to its knees."
While being cross-examined by Olusegun Jolaawo, counsel to Mr Melaye, Mr Onoja said that he only heard of an alleged attempt on Mr Melaye in his village in Ijumu Local Government Area of Kogi.
"The defendant alleged that those who went to kill him were chanting Sai Edward, sai Taofik."
After testifying, Jolaawo prayed the court for an adjournment to enable the defence to obtain some public documents to confront the witness.
The judge, Olasumbo Goodluck, ordered the defence to get all necessary documents ready and adjourned the matter until January 14 and January 28 for the continuation of hearing.
In count one, the senator was accused to have, sometime in April 2017, deliberately given false information to the police to frame Mr Onoja.
He alleged that Onoja was the mastermind of the assassination attempt on him.
In the second count, Melaye was alleged to have given a false statement of facts in a telephone conversation with Mohammed Abubakar.
The offence, the police said, contravened the provisions of sections 140 and 393 of the Penal Code.
Melaye Gave False Information to Police Against Me, Witness
Edward Onoja, Chief of Staff to Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi, on Wednesday, alleged that Dino Melaye gave false information to the police implicating him in criminal activities.

The 143 miles of Refuge roads and trails are former logging roads constructed to access timber stands. Natural hydrologic flow and connections to the Suwannee River Sound, estuary, and Big Bend region of the Gulf of Mexico is negatively impacted by this old road network. The roads function the same way levees or dikes would. They impound the water and in many instances redirect it into culverts, disrupting natural sheet flow. This blockage of surface flow means that much of this water does not make it to the estuary. It is detained long enough to evaporate inland altering the estuarine balance and the ecology and productivity of the nearshore waters. This affects freshwater and marine fisheries that are important for recreation and commerce.
The proposals being worked on address the most significant road features, the Dixie Mainline and the southern half of the Nature Drive. They seek to restore hydrology on the Refuge through:
- The replacement of undersized and dilapidated culverts.
- The installation of additional culverts, low water crossings, ditch plugs, and bridges.
- The removal or breaching of underutilized roads and trails and subsequent filling of roadside ditches.

High Performance Academy completes first stage of its winter programme
Tue 15 Dec 2015
The HPA Class of 2016 is the biggest since the programme began in 2014. A total of 55 athletes aged between 13 and 19 (38 from baseball and 17 from fastpitch softball) were selected from tryouts at the beginning of October. This week was their final week of practice for 2015, and concludes the first stage of a programme designed to prepare the UK's top baseball and fastpitch athletes for the 2016 season.
Following the October tryouts, HPA practice sessions started in November and have run for seven weeks. Baseball practices took place three times a week at three venues across London and the South East, while softball practices have been held twice a week at the Langley Academy in Slough.
For those players not able to attend practices, support has been provided through the Academy and also a distance learning programme.
Building a foundation
The last seven weeks have focused on building an athletic foundation in preparation for the heavy work that will begin on the other side of Christmas.
Athletes and parents were invited to attend an engagement day that included a series of physical tests to determine benchmarks and also what development work was needed to improve functional and sport-specific movement. Following the testing day, strength and conditioning programmes have been issued to each of the athletes to help them address any imbalances in strength or flexibility.
Practices have focused primarily on hitting mechanics, individual defence and developing appropriate throwing routines. ack

The possibility that BT might be forced to sell or divest or split off its Openreach division has not gone down well with Openreach's bosses, with the telecoms company's CEO claiming it's pioneering fibre connections and should be allowed to stay part of the BT family.
The comments come from Openreach boss Joe Garner who disagrees with Ofcom's suggestion that a separated company might be better suited to upgrading the UK's phone infrastructure and trigger more cable-laying competition, claiming that the "current construct is working extremely well" and that the broadband team ought to stay part of the BT family.
Garner told the BBC that the involvement of BT and its money, power and influence have speeded up the rollout of superfast broadband in the UK, saying: "I can tell you categorically that our top priority is rolling out fibre to more and more of the country. I very much doubt that [anyone] would have been able to make the investment in fibre that BT made five years ago in the depths of recession. That's led to our Europe leading position today."
He's not entirely unsympathetic to those with last-gen speedtest results, though, adding: "I really understand that anyone who hasn't yet got access to superfast broadband, they're going to be impatient to get hold of it, but... this country now does have 90% with fibre and we're pushing on at a tremendous rate."

R2R manufacturing involves flexible FPD (OLED type) in the sheet form. The main critical requirement is that the substrate material chosen should be flexible and can be bent, flexed and rolled many number of times without damaging its performance. The thin flexible FPD for R2R manufacturing is called a web.
CoreFlow's solution for R2R allows :
- Highly-controlled tension system control with crosswise distortion <100μm
- Non-contact between web and aero-mechanical surfaces ensures no bottom-side contamination or mechanical damage to the web

Cookbook Author Seeks Czar's Buried TreasureMarch 14, 2009 at 9:51 am | Posted in News | 1 Comment
The Romanovs' treasure is buried in Mongolia, according to an eighty-year-old American socialite who now wants to find it and dig it up. According to many sources including Mongolia-web.com, Patte Barham claims that her stepfather, Prince George Meskhi-Gleboff, buried the jewels in Mongolia in 1917: "Meskhi-Gleboff was an assistant to the Russian czar's treasurer and told [Barham] that Czar Nikolas II's wife, Empress Aleksandra, instructed him to flee with the jewels ahead of the Russian Bolsheviks. The jewels reportedly include the imperial Russian crowns and tiaras, Faberge eggs and opera-length strands of pearls, rubies, sapphires and diamonds. While fleeing through Mongolia, Meskhi-Gleboff is believed to have buried the jewels in the Gobi Desert." Barham — who is the author of several books, including Marilyn: The Last Take, Rasputin: The Man Behind the Myth, and Peasant to Palace: Rasputin's Cookbook — claims that her stepfather owned a map showing the treasure's location. She says the map vanished after his death, but that "she knows the exact location of where the treasure was buried."
Dig, dig, dig!

Defeating censorship one piece of tape at a time
filed in China, Olympics on Aug.24, 2008
The other day, I read an interesting article on TechDirt — Covering Up Any Brand In Beijing That Hasn't Paid To Sponsor The Olympics.
Turns out that the "Olympic logo police workers are tasked with vigilantly going around all facilities and putting masking tape over the logos for any product where the company is not an official sponsor."
Yes, there are workers who spend their days going around Olympic venues and meticulously covering up every single little tiny logo and trademark with masking tape.
Here's a picture I nabbed from Boing Boing:
The IOC thinks this kind of silly over-reaction is necessary:
The International Olympic Committee says that such "brand protection" is essential for the Games to raise the corporate money that keeps them going and growing. The Games get 40% of their revenue from sponsors, with the rest coming from broadcast rights, ticketing and licensing.
Everything from the logos on elevators and garbage cans to logos on entire walls buildings (like a hotel *outside* of the Olympic Green) have been covered up. Apparently, even people wearing t-shirts with logos of non-Olympic sponsors (Pepsi, for instance), are asked to take them off before entering Olympic stadiums. You know, because the public might (god forbid) see a non-sponsor's logo amidst the billions of gigantic, illuminated, in-your-face sponsor logos everywhere else in Olympic facilities, and purchase a competing product.
Give me a break!
Well, sure enough, I walked into a bathroom in the National Interior Stadium the other day, in between the finals of the Women's Handball event, and this is what I found:
Silly, yes. But I think, more accurately, this is some kind of CRAZY COMMUNIST CENSORSHIP!
And after all, the main reason why I came to China was to bring those commies to their knees!
Besides, the logo they were covering up was "American Standard". (And they didn't do a good job… you can even see it through the tape):
The nerve! Of all the logos they could have covered, they had to do it to one with "America" in the title. What kind of American would I be if I let this stand?
I made quick work of those pieces urine-soaked tape, just like the founding father would have done (or any TRUE American patriot):
That'll show 'em! A few zillion more pieces of tape, and I will bring this Chinese Communism to a crashing halt.
Freedom don't come free, ladies and gentlemen.

T minus one day and not counting anymore. I finally submitted to the soul-sucking NY Times registration yesterday — I figure this election will fill my soul-sucking quota for the year, I might as well get the news too. So here's what the Gray Lady has to say the day before the election.
What happens to public campaign financing now that Obama has rewritten the rules? The story notes, "Mr. Obama, the Democratic nominee for president, apparently did not absorb much by way of political cost when he broke a pledge to accept public financing if his opponent did as well." Well of course not — no one really expects Sen. Obama to honor his promises, do they?
"Campaigns in a Web 2.0 World" makes interesting reading. In 2004, candidate websites and blogs got noticed. This time it was Facebook and YouTube that made a splash. Can you imagine where we'll be in four more years?
And here's your pleasant thought for the day, courtesy of William Kristol's op-ed piece giving liberals a few things to be happy about in the unlikely event of a McCain victory:
A McCain victory would be good for liberalism. Look at recent history. Jimmy Carter and a Democratic Congress begat Ronald Reagan. Bill Clinton and a Democratic Congress produced Newt Gingrich. Who knows what would follow a President Obama and a Democratic Congress? Here's one possibility: President Sarah Palin.

Data collection for 2013 trend study to continue until the beginning of April
What are the trends bank managers expect to see in the next few years? That is the question Fraunhofer IAO is once again asking decision makers in the banking sector this year, with the current "Banks and the Future 2013" trend survey due to run on until the beginning of April 2013.
Venturing a look into the future, it's clear that banks have a lot ahead of them, with the expectation that they will become more customer-focused, more innovative, more responsive and more efficient. At the same time, a whole host of regulatory requirements have restricted the banks' room for maneuver in many respects. Here, new organizational and technological approaches and solutions can help them tap into new business opportunities.
How do bank managers see different trends and developments and their impact on the banks of tomorrow? What are the most important challenges at the present time and how can these be overcome in the future? These are the questions Fraunhofer IAO is putting to board members and top-level decision makers in the German-speaking banking and financial sectors as part of the "Bank & Future" innovation forum.
The study aims to canvass opinion makers from the German-speaking banking sector, taking and analyzing their assessments of current trends and developments in the areas of customer and sales management, product and service innovation, organizational structuring, and use of technology.
This year's survey was launched in February 2013 and will run until April 2, 2013. Bank managers interested in participating in the survey can do so by going to the innovation forum's website (www.bankundzukunft.de). Filling out the form will take around 25 minutes and can be done online or on paper. All participants can request to receive a summary of the results by email.

AirConsole gamedev competition
There's a game development competition I'm (co-)organizing and it's not js13kGames. The AirConsole team wanted to get involved in the HTML5 gamedev community and I'm helping them with that.
The competition is running through February and ends on March 3rd, so there's still a week left – it's more than enough for what's needed. AirConsole is providing an API which you can implement in your game to control it using a spartphone and play it on your laptop, PC or TV screen.
You can win 1500 USD cash and Construct 2 Business license, and there are also runner-up prizes for 10 best entries worth 100 USD each.
Compo URL: developers.airconsole.com/#/competition-2016-01
You don't have to build the game from scratch – you can use your existing games for that and just implement the API in them. It's important that you keep all the rights to your games, and can get an extra promotion from the AirConsole team in their store.
Good luck and have fun!
Announcing a competition one week before it ends is way too short… especially if you have to take into account a new api or concept.

My Mom, Billboard Size
"I Was Really Something" my painting of my mother, who died from Alzheimer's Disease, was picked by Embracing Our Differences to be made into a 16 foot wide by 12.5 foot high billboard for their 2016 exhibit. The billboard will be displayed in Sarasota's Island Park from March 30 - May 31. I didn't think the painting would be chosen because I figured they wanted art regarding racial and cultural differences, sexual orientation, etc. but I feel the elderly and the sick are too often forgotten and should be included in this category. Luckily, they thought so too. I'm going to go down before the exhibit is over so I will then post a pic of the billboard. I wish my Mom were still around. She'd be so happy. I'd take a million pics of her in front of it.
By popular demand, "The Future of the Past: Black Lives Matter" exhibit at the Marran Gallery, Cambridge, MA has been extended to April 5. It's exciting that people are so excited about art which reflects, informs and hopefully changes our world.
The Future of the Past: Black Lives Matter
I'm so happy. Violence Transformed is using my painting "Life Matters" for the flyer for "The Future of the Past: Black Lives Matter" exhibit at the Marran Gallery.

South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley says 'it's time to move the flag from the capitol grounds.'
The state has continued to change with the times and must continue to do so, Haley said.
Gov. Haley announced at a crowded press conference that the Confederate flag would come down from the state grounds.
Her statement was met by huge cheers, whoops and clapping.
Haley acknowledged that on matters of race, South Carolina had a tough history, but in spite of last week's tragedy, they had come a long way.
She said: "That brings me to the subject of the Confederate flag that flies on the state house grounds. For many people in our state, the flag stands for traditions that are noble. Traditions of history, of heritage and of ancestry.
"The hate-filled murderer [Dylann Roof] who massacred our brothers and sisters in Charleston has a sick and twisted view of the flag. In no way does he reflect the people in our state who respect and in many ways revere it.
"For others in South Carolina, the flag is a deeply offensive symbol of a brutally oppressive past.
"We do not need to declare a winner and a loser here. We respect freedom of expression and for those who wish to show their respect for the flag on their private property no one will stand in your way.
"But the state house is different and the events of this past week call upon us to look at this in a different way.
"Today, we are here in a moment of unity in our state, without ill will, to say it's time to move the flag from the capitol grounds.
"150 years after the end of the Civil War, the time has come. There will be some in our state who see this as a sad moment. I respect that. But know this, for good or for bad whether it is on the state house grounds or in a museum the flag will always be part of the soil of South Carolina.
"But this is a moment in which we can say that that flag, while an integral part of our past does not represent the future of our great state.
"The murderer now locked up in Charleston said he hoped his actions would start a race war. We have an opportunity to show that not only was he wrong, but just the opposite is happening. My hope is that by removing the symbol that divides us, we can move forward as a state and we can honour the nine blessed souls who are now in heaven."

Hanul Sieger's OS X on XP installation runs QuickTime, Safari, Terminal, About This Mac and a Finder window. Because there is no networking in PearPC on Windows, Sieger loaded Apple's homepage in Safari from an HTML file loaded from a disk image. View Slideshow For years, Mac users have been able to run Windows on their machines using products like Microsoft's Virtual PC.
Now Windows and Linux users can do the reverse. Released last week, PearPC is the first software emulator to allow Apple Computer's OS X to run on an Intel- or AMD-based machine.
Developed by Sebastian Biallas and Stefan Weyergraf, a pair of 23-year-old computer students from Aachen, Germany, PearPC re-creates in software the PowerPC architecture, the hardware used in Apple's Macs.
The free, open-source software allows Intel- and AMD-based PCs to run several operating systems compatible with the PowerPC, including Mandrake Linux, BSD, Darwin and, most importantly, Apple's Mac OS X.
Users can download and install a copy of PearPC, and then install a boxed copy of OS X, which can be purchased from Apple for $130.
"Installation (of OS X) works beautifully but takes about four hours on a 1300 Athlon," said Weyergraf, referring to a PC with a 1.3GHz AMD Athlon chip. "I must admit 10.3 (OS X Panther) still has problems.... Some program crashes at startup and makes Panther restart it, over and over. We are working on this."
Biallas and Weyergraf warn PearPC is only a version 0.1 release and is still very experimental. By their admission, it is incomplete, unstable and painfully slow – running about 500 times slower than the host system.
It is "not meant for productive use," the pair caution on the site. "Don't use it on important data, it WILL destroy them sooner or later!"
Speaking from Germany, Weyergraf said the system has been about 18 months in development, and contains nearly 70,000 lines of code. At present, it has no networking or sound. Weyergraf said it is a proof of concept, but future versions should show "huge gains" in speed.
"We think we can make it bearable to work with Mac OS X on a high-end PC," he said.
Despite the sluggish performance (one user estimated PearPC would need a 150-GHz PC to run OS X in real time) and a painfully convoluted installation procedure, the system is being enthusiastically embraced by curious geeks.
A blogger called Tzonbryan marveled at the excitement of all the Mac wannabes playing with the system and reporting their experiences at sites like Emaculation.com, a Mac-emulation site, and Neowin.net.
"It's a bit hard to explain the sense of glee and hope these prisoners of Microsoft emote upon seeing the grey Apple boot screen appear on their screens," Tzonbryan wrote. "Amazing ... the sheer numbers rushing out the Gates of Hell to escape the chained bondage that is Windows."
PearPC is a rough approximation of a G3 chip, which was used in Macs a couple of generations old. The emulator is missing the chip's Floating Point Unit, which can greatly accelerate many multimedia tasks, like video playback.
Nonetheless, PearPC successfully loads and runs Mac OS X. Some users have been able to play QuickTime movie trailers, albeit in slow, slow motion.
PearPC is the first emulator to support OS X. Other PowerPC emulators, such as SheepShaver and QEMU support only earlier versions of the Mac operating system.
For many years, Apple's use of ROM chips (hardware containing a portion of the Mac operating system) stymied the emulation of the Mac on other platforms. Apple used ROMs partly to prevent third-party PC makers from knocking out cheap Mac clones, but in recent years abandoned the practice.
Biallas and Weyergraf were able to emulate the PowerPC architecture thanks to OpenFirmware, an open standard for computer firmware.
The emergence of PearPC is another sign of growing interest among Windows and Linux users in Mac OS X. Already a large community of interface tweakers is dedicated to transforming their Windows XP boxes into faux Macs.
"PC folks clearly admire Apple's ease of use ... and its cool applications," said Tim Bajarin, president of Creative Strategies, a market-research firm. "But in the end, they really want the large amount of applications that come with a standard PC. This particular product could give them the best of both worlds."
Weyergraf said he and Biallas hoped PearPC could function as a relatively inexpensive introduction to the Mac.
"You can think of people that would like to try Mac OS X because they are dissatisfied with their current OS," Weyergraf said. "They would then eventually buy a real Mac."

John Nettles exits Midsomer Murders
Story by Jack Foley
JOHN Nettles is to quit the role of DCI Tom Barnaby in ITV crime serial Midsomer Murders, it has been announced.
The 65-year-old, who has starred in the drama since it began in 1996, will film his final scenes in 2010 and has wished his successor the best of luck as ITV intends to continue commissioning the show.
When he departs, Nettles will have chalked up 75 appearances across 13 seasons on the show and has already described it as marking "the end of an era". A new lead character is set to be introduced for the start of the 14th series.
Reflecting on his time as DCI Barnaby, Nettles – who made his name in another long-running detective drama, Bergerac – said: "I never thought when we were filming the pilot, The Killings at Badger's Drift, in 1996 that I would go on to film so many episodes.
"It has been a joy to be involved in such a long-running series, with so many good actors and great storylines. And while I'm very sad to be handing in Barnaby's police badge, he has solved nearly 200 murders, which I think meets the targets of modern policing!"
Series producer Brian True-May is confident that Midsomer Murders will continue to thrive with a new character at its helm, citing shows such as Taggart as examples of shows that have continued after the departure of main characters.
Midsomer Murders has enjoyed an illustrious history, drawing several notable guest appearances from top-name stars including Orlando Bloom and Oscar nominee Imelda Staunton.

So what do you call it? Snowzilla? Storm of the Century? SnowNo! What ever you call it, it way too much snow. This is the back deck at first light this morning.
This is our front porch. Can you see where it ends and the snow begins? It is about a three foot drop off here into the side yard.
This is right off the front step. Notice the rose bush? It is about 4 feet tall.
Our shed roof:
See the drifts on the back roof:
And here are our cars this morning at first light:
And the cars around 1 PM:
Notice the heavy snow starting up again. The small Scion is just about buried. The huge 15 passenger van is almost as bad.
This is our neighbors house. Notice the evergreen tree.
Some afternoon deck pictures
Off our Front Porch this afternoon
Notice the everygreen leaning more.
So it is about 2PM and it is still snowing quite hard here. I wonder how many more inches of snow will fall?
Oh the bombshell dropped in passing today: More accumulating snow expected on Tuesday.
I guess the children will be going to school until July….

It's becoming every bit the Sunday tradition as laughter-filled pregame shows, thrilling games called by Gus Johnson and "60 Minutes" coming up next except on the West Coast: James Harrison(notes) getting flagged for a personal foul and then complaining about it after the game. The only difference is, this time the Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker might have a point.
Some thoughts:
1. This is a close one. It's not a clear penalty, but it's not definitely clean either. (You can vote on this below.) However, I'd wager a good chunk of change that Brian Urlacher(notes) or Ray Lewis(notes) doesn't get flagged for making the same exact hit. Fairly or not, James Harrison is being profiled for his past behavior. In this case, he made a clean hit and was flagged for it because of the name on the back of his jersey.
[Rewind: James Harrison threatens to retire over dirty hit rules]
2. Don't cry for him, though; Harrison is by no means an innocent bystander in this. He brought this scrutiny upon himself with years of actual dirty play, high-profile condemnations of Roger Goodell's new policies and vows of defiance of new rules. He's been fined $80,000 this year already but said before this week's game that he was no longer worried about calls. Harrison didn't just put the microscope on himself, he adjusted the slide and focused it too.
3. That being said, the fact that Harrison is usually guilty doesn't mean he's always guilty. This was a bang-bang play. Fitzpatrick took the snap from the shotgun and released the ball in 1.25 seconds. Harrison blitzed up the middle and was tasked with sacking the quarterback. What was he supposed to do? He didn't launch himself, he didn't hit Fitzpatrick in the chin (despite what Solomon Wilcots said on the CBS broadcast) and he didn't hit him late. Of course, he hit him with the crown of his helmet. Would Goodell prefer that he used a throw pillow to make the tackle?
4. Harrison after the game: "[The flag] isn't going to change the way I play. There was nothing wrong about the play."
5. There's no good way to go about this. Profiling is effective when done properly. Andre Johnson(notes) shouldn't be suspended for beating on Cortland Finnegan because of his past history; if that was Hines Ward(notes), I'd say ban him for a game. But Harrison can't be expected to play like he's in an intramural flag football game. It's a familiar refrain, but this is football. Forget the emphasis on dirty hits and tell refs to watch the game with an open mind and police the game accordingly.

I love beans and lentils, but I also love salads and raw food, my body feels like it needs them!
I usually mix cooked beans with raw salad vegetables, but when I remember I get some bean sprouts, and I particularly like this crunchy bean combo from Sproutman. I can just eat the sprouted beans as they are, with a drop of olive oil and lemon juice,
These crunchy beans are quite filling and with the addition of a few more goodies with just one packet of the packet bean combo I made a salad for 4! It is winter here in New Zealand so there aren't many green leaves around a part from iceberg lettuce, quite bland for my taste, but ok to give 'volume'. No fresh tomatoes either, so I used some semi dried tomatoes, and added more Mediterranean flavors: salted capers, and mixed olives. A salad like this really fills you up, even without carbs or animal protein. The dressing was just extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice, with a pinch of salt.
And now some photos from Nan's garden in Christchurch, to add to my Pinterest flower board!
I told Nan that most of her flowers could be eaten, but promised that I would not ;-).

Part 8 of The Fan Fiction Experiment
My taste is so bad! I just begin to realize it, and I am feeling my 'growing pains,' like Gwendolen in 'Daniel Deronda.' I admired the stained glass in the Lincoln Cathedral the other day, especially the Nuremberg window. I thought Mr. Copley looked pained, but he said nothing. When I went to my room, I consulted a book and found that all the glass in that cathedral is very modern and very bad, and the Nuremberg window is the worst of all. Aunt Celia says she hopes that it will be a warning to me to read before I speak; but Mr. Copley says no, that the world would lose more in one way than it would gain in the other.
– A Cathedral Courtship by Kate Douglas Wiggin
Every writer has to start somewhere, and the journey from that somewhere is strewn with embarrassing moments where we realized what we thought was good writing fell miserably short. I think it's because writers tend to take writing advice quite literally. It can result in an avalanche of same-sounding, soulless stories. It's good to follow the Writer's Golden Rule on this one:
"Don't bore others by emulating the things that bore you."
Duplicating what's already on the shelves doesn't help a story to resonate. There are bazillions of blogs that advise writers to try new techniques and methods. Remember the tip about describing your character through traits of a specific animal, like a cat, snake, or bird? I've noticed an influx of this in stories lately. Overused techniques are bullets aimed at a writer's foot. Readers like variety; so when I read about a new approach, I ask myself, "Is this something that will fit my style naturally? Can I make it distinctively my own?" If not, I chuck it. There's a fine line between mimicking and capturing. One isn't really me, and the other becomes part of my style. In the long run, this will help me retain my originality because thousands of other writers read the same advice.
Social networks have made trending and trend-following much simpler, which means the time frame for a trend can peter out much faster. Fanfiction allows writers to filter through the trends, making it a great way to track what's still catching your reader's eye and what everyone is over and done with.
It's a useful sieve for stale dialogue tags. I think of dialogue tags being like photo memes. Take Grumpy Cat for an example. A common reaction is shared among viewers when they see this "I'm not amused," crusty, frowning cat. Phrases and words can trigger the same reaction, describing the character's state succinctly for the reader. Once readers connect to a commonly used tag, it's golden. For a time at least.
Here are some dialogue tags that connect with readers:
Shifting Strands of Hair
She curled her knees to her chest, pushed back a loose strand of hair, and waited.
"You don't know, do you?" Charlie said with an amused expression. He reached up and brushed a strand of hair from her cheek. She met his eyes as the realization of what he meant crept over her.
Moving strands of hair away from the face denotes an emotionally charged moment. It can be an act of vulnerability, frustration, or a display of tenderness.
To Clench or Ball the Hands
Carmen laughed as she tore my flyer in two. "Who'd vote for you, Schizoid?" she said, tossing the pieces at me and prancing into the classroom. I stood in the hallway, my hands clenched tightly, not sure whether I wanted to scream or cry.
Making fists with one's hands means the person is trying to keep control in the midst of strong feelings, usually negative ones.
Here are two more tags that are somewhat overused:
"She bit her lip."
"His jaw tightened."
What do these tags mean to you?
Common phrases and words used in everyday conversation, or in blogs, can make it into the thoughts of fanfic characters. Remember 'I digress?' How about reading 'ebullition' and 'pedantic?' Those were tripping up easy-read blogs a couple of years ago. I've been tempted to use 'pablum' and 'caveat.' It's my theory that most of these words come from the workday environment—because sales pitches at business meetings aren't complete without digging up a seldom-used word to redefine in commercial terms. I imagine there's some Words With Friends designer using Tipping Point strategies to highlight one word per season. He/she muses over things like, "Hey, I wonder how many people I can get to use the word 'ycleped?'"
A manuscript can be edited for dialogue and wording, but what if the story is based on something most readers don't want to read about anymore? It would be good to know that in advance, since the story might not be given a chance by a publisher. I might poll readers to ask them what subjects they are tired of seeing on the shelves, but I think it's better to observe what they flock to and what they avoid. As a fanfic reader and writer, I can tell you what I've grown tired of and what I've avoided writing. And I thank you for asking.
Vampires. Top of the list. I won't make any of my characters vampires. I will find some other way to denote his/her charismatic personality and deadly intents.
Pouty Princesses. This includes pouting teens who don't know they are princesses and learn it later in the story. I will give my heroine value and recognition without the bejeweled crown, and without the puckered lower lip.
Snarky Sorcerers. (Yes, I mean witches and wizards, but I like the catchy alliteration.) I will leave the spells at home and help my character explore new ways to exert power or influence over others and learn self-control.
Also, there's some serious oversnarkensation going on in children's and young adult literature. (That portmanteau is supposed to remind you of 'overcompensation.' Get it? Heh.) Snarky dialogue is like lemon juice. It can give a story zest in small doses.
Zombified and Angsty Dead People. Okay, what is this obsession with having died a few hundred times? I'm not saying I wouldn't be angsty if I were dying over and over, too, but what was once supposed to be gruesome is quickly becoming old and stale. Kinda like zombies. Has anyone noticed that zombies are vampires without the magnetic charm?
Skimming the current fanfics to find out what everyone else is writing about ad nauseam can help you avoid these pitfalls. Conversely, if you're not nauseated by it, and still interested in reading it, it could mean others are still interested in more books on that topic, too. So, say you have a manuscript already written about a snarky zombie who learns he's actually an emperor of wizards. Do you hold on to it for a bit? Should you wait for readers to forget about zombies and wizards so they can be all surprised and thrilled at its reentry? Or is now the time to introduce "Fitz Mulroony, Magic's Really Rotten Royalty"?
Bottom line: Trends come and go. I'm going to love my book for itself. I won't be embarrassed to introduce it without tricking it out in the latest look or painting it over in the season's hottest colors. I'll glory in its quirks. Didn't I labor over it and call it names and throw terrible fits and tell it I never wanted to see it again? My book and I have come a long way together. Both of us can just be ourselves now.
Friday's last post in this series will focus on what a writer can learn from supporting other fanfic writers.
(Disclaimer: My opinions on vampires, princesses, and zombies are purely my opinions. You might still enjoy reading about them. No, of course I'm not rolling my eyes! Well, yeah, my fingers could have been crossed while I denied that.)

U.S. and European regulatory bodies are handing brand owners a prime opportunity to grow their brands. Yes, regulations in force in Europe and pending in the U.S. do mean more work for brands: privately, major brands have told us that as many as a quarter of their U.S. labels will need complete redesign if current FDA proposals become a reality in the next 12 to 18 months.
This would be costly news if the mandates didn't also present a golden opportunity for manufacturers and brands to radically improve package design, brand consistency, label accuracy and production efficiency on both the physical and digital shelf.
Here's how to achieve that accuracy:
1. Commitment. Commit to complete, correct and up-to-date packaging whenever your brand appears – on the digital shelf as well as on the physical shelf. This usually requires and in-house advocate with buy-in at the top levels.
2. Audit. Be sure to thoroughly check your brand's e-commerce images across online retailers and product review sites. If you're seeing a mix of 2D and 3D images, different angles, different lightings and color, missing information and outdated images, you're eroding consumer confidence. And just as important - opening yourself up to regulatory issues.
3. Organization. Inside many companies there is open no single person accountable for packaging e-content. It's split by brand and among individuals in different departments as well as among external suppliers. Brand managers have a clearly define supply chain process to ensure the package on the physical shelf is right and ready on time. But without a similarly unified strategy for packaging e-content development, its hard to control a brand's timely and accurate representation on the digital shelf.
4. Technology. Even assuming brand owners using a digital asset library, they often don't have 3D images of packages or multiple 2D panel shots depicting product information. And if they do, it's usually been created through a conventional photography process that can eat up six to eight weeks, costs more, produces fewer images and opens up this part of the supply chain to risk. And this happens every time a design is refreshed or ingredients change or a new packaging regulation requires compliance. It's a vicious cycle.
Approved artwork is applied to a 3D wireframe of the package, which can be made directly from client-supplied CAD files or created from a physical sample using 3D scanning technology. Multiple packaging views can then be created that provide customers with a clear view of all labeling information – such as ingredients, nutrition and allergens – exactly as they appear on the physical package.
5. Process. It's crucial to develop digital brand content in tight integration with the same workflows used to create and manage artwork for the physical shelf. This requires synchronization among brand teams, design departments, marketing services, procurement and more. It's a process that we at Schawk help our clients implement. This creates e-commerce images directly from the final, approved master artwork file for the physical package – including complete views of all required informational elements. This way, the product on the digital shelf is never preliminary, incomplete or untrustworthy.
By synchronizing workflows, brands can created a stronger shopper experience by ensuring that regardless of where consumers come across your brand, in-store or online, the packaging is consistent.

Corn on the cob is like the healthy hero of summer BBQs. Because you can toss it on the grill and eat it with your hands, it goes perfectly alongside hot dogs, hamburgers, and ice cream sandwiches—but it adds some much-needed nutrition to the menu. That doesn't mean you need to eat it plain, though. Here, see the best ways to cook, top, and eat corn on the cob.
Why Corn On the Cob Is Healthy AF
One large ear of corn on the cob only has about 75 calories and about 4 grams of protein—plus, a ton of fiber per serving. "Corn is a whole grain and offers up 4.6 grams of fiber per cup," says dietitian Christy Brissette, M.S., R.D. "Fiber keeps you regular, helps control blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and could help you manage your weight,"
Bonus: It's right in season. "Summer is prime time for fresh corn, as June and July are the peak times for fresh corn harvest, resulting in sweeter, more delicious corn," adds dietitian Dana Angelo White, M.S., R.D.
How to Cook Corn On the Cob
When it comes to cooking corn, there are a few different ways to go.
Microwave: If you're feeling a little lazy (no shame here!), you can also microwave corn in the husk for four to five minutes, says Iovinelli.
Grill: Grilling is the most time-intensive, but totally worth it. (P.S. did you know you can grill avocados?!) There's a very specific method to grilling the perfect ear of corn: You want to cook it on the grill in its husk (to keep it moist) for about 20 minutes total. First, pull back the outer husks (without completely detaching them), and remove all the silks. Then pull the husks back up to cover the ear, and place the entire eat on the grill. After 15 minutes, pull the husks down and let the corn sit directly on the grill for the last five minutes to add a little smokiness as a finishing touch, says chef Mareya Ibrahim, holistic nutritionist and founder of Eat Cleaner. Finish with an optional touch of melted butter or ghee and a sprinkle of sea salt. Pro tip: If you like a little char on your corn, place it back on the grill for an extra 1 to 2 minutes, says White.)
Tasty Corn On the Cob Flavors and Toppings
Now that your corn is cooked, it's time for the fixings.
First up, use a bit of fat to coat your corn before putting on your desired toppings. "Carotenoids are also fat-soluble, which means your body absorbs them better when you eat your corn with some fat. So go ahead and add some butter, olive oil, or avocado oil to your corn on the cob," says Brissette. (For real: fat is not evil, you guys.)
Try these recipes and flavor combinations:
- Bacon-Wrapped Corn On the Cob: This recipe by Mareya is great for meat-lovers. Remove husks from corn and boil the cobs until fork-tender. Wrap each one in a slice of nitrate-free bacon and sprinkle with oregano, granulated garlic, and pepper. Wrap the bacon-wrapped cobs in heavy-duty aluminum foil and grill until the bacon is crispy; about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain excess oil and pat with a paper towel before enjoying.
- Fiery Feta Corn On the Cob: Mix 2 tablespoons of feta cheese, 1 tablespoon EVOO, a dash of dried oregano, and red pepper flakes (per 1-2 cobs), says Mareya. Sprinkle on top of cooked, greased corn.
- Mexicali Corn On the Cob: Mix 2 tablespoons cotija cheese, 2 tablespoons ghee, one-half teaspoon smoked paprika, a sprinkle of sea salt and cracked pepper. Smear onto boiled or grilled corn, says Mareya.
- Citrus and Herb Corn On the Cob: Fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, and cilantro will pair well with corn on the cob, says Iovinelli. "One of my favorite ways to garnish corn is by painting on melted butter and adding some fresh-squeezed lime juice, cilantro leaves, chili powder, paprika, and uncured bacon bits," she says.
- Cheesy and Breadcrumb Corn On the Cob: Melt some butter in a bowl and brush that onto the corn. On a separate plate, mix breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and herbed goat cheese. "The cheese easily spreads and melts on the hot corn and the breadcrumbs add that extra crispy finish," says Iovinelli.
- Pumpkin Seed Pesto Corn On the Cob: Whip up some homemade pumpkin seed pesto with this recipe, courtesy of Mareya: First, pan toast 1 cup shelled pumpkin seeds over medium-low heat until fragrant, shaking from time to time; about 5-6 minutes. Combine 1/2 cup cilantro (packed), 3 tablespoons EVOO (or a mix of pumpkin seed oil and EVOO), 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast, 2 cloves fresh garlic, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon white pepper, and pulse in a food processor until it forms a paste. Add toasted pumpkin seeds and pulse again, then spread on cooked corn. (Makes about 1 and 1/2 cups pesto.)

Two completely contrasting topics but albeit interesting ones.
Speaking about his teammates with Dugout, Gini Wijnaldum has outlined Liverpool's funniest member of the squad as well as the man he feels will one day go on to become a manager.
He said: "Sadio Mane definitely, because he's funny. He's chilled, relaxed – he sees everything relaxed and isn't bothered by things. That's how it looks."
As for the future manager, he added: "Hendo, maybe. I think he can be, the way he treats people now and the team – the way he arranges thing."
Personalities are what a Jurgen Klopp-led team needs and Wijnaldum's outlook now makes it no surprise that both Mane and Jordan Henderson have been such influential players for us this season.
Henderson has evolved into a great captain and leader on the pitch, often posing as the unsung hero behind balanced, solid and ruthless Liverpool performances.
He sets the bar in terms of work rate and the manner in which to approach games and it's for the way he goes about football that gives him a strong chance of moving into coaching further down the line.
As for Mane, his coolness is personified by the way he goes about the game. For a man with his explosive pace and movement and for such an energetic and obvious presence on the pitch, he always looks so calm, composed and as though he is in control of every incident he is involved with.
Both are leaders within the squad in their own unique form.
Fascinating Prem table shows how Liverpool would be top without Mane

For a blog that's named after a Skin Yard track and specializes in posting Sub Pop singles, some might say that it's kind of a failure on my part that I'm only posting this Skin Yard/Sub Pop single here now.
Always better late than never, this is the fantastic "Start at the Top / Watch" single that was released in the late 80's and easily contains of my 2 favorite Skin Yard tracks. The first track is rippingly catchy and heavy with the strange vibes and rocking psychedelia that embody what I love so much about this band. The second track, "Watch", is eerier than the first but I promise you, just as raging. To summarize: this single will take you on a trip. Let it.

Veterinary Acupuncture: A way forward in animal health care?
Increasingly we are seeing the benefits of acupuncture for humans, when treating a variety of different disorders, including muscle pain, arthritis, back pain and sciatica. Research has shown that in many cases acupuncture is a very useful tool, and more and more often we are becoming accustomed to incorporating it into the Western model of medicine.
Over the past few decades acupuncture has been introduced into Veterinary medicine in the West. It is being used to treat many of the same conditions, such as arthritis, and muscle pain. For animals these conditions have traditionally been managed by pain relief, or in extreme cases, surgery. During the course of Veterinary Nurse training, I worked alongside a well-respected Veterinary Surgeon in the north Dublin area, who believes strongly in the use of acupuncture as well as everyday pain relief. He kindly agreed to answer some questions about this topic for me.
Gary Cregan, based in Lissenhall Veterinary Hospital, in Swords, Co.Dublin has been using acupuncture in practice for over 5 years. He believes it is a very effective treatment. Gary became very interested in acupuncture after he had the treatment himself to manage pain and was amazed at the results. Shortly afterwards, he began to study Veterinary Acupuncture, and is continuing to train and learn – he sees the study of acupuncture as a lifetime pursuit.
Most commonly, Gary practices acupuncture on dogs; and the problems he would treat are generally mobility problems caused by old age. For this condition NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) would be used, but these are contra-indicated in the use of older patients as they can cause serious kidney and liver problems. He has found, in these cases, that acupuncture does work more effectively then everyday medication.
I asked Gary how long, approximately, a course of acupuncture would last. A dog would generally have two or three treatments in the first week and once a month for chronic arthritis. He does believe that acupuncture does have an accumulative effect when used for long durations of time. Depending on the age of the dog and the conditions presented the treatment can differ. It also depends on the season, as Gary has found more dogs need acupuncture in the winter months rather than summer, much like humans.
While visiting Gary, I had a chance to talk to some of the owners of dogs which he had treated with acupuncture. Roisin who is a registered Veterinary Nurse, is the owner of a 5 year old Doberman x Rottweiler, neutered female called Evo. She had noticed that Evo had developed incontinence and it was also discovered she had spondylosis of the thoraco-lumbar junction of the spine (which may have caused the incontinence). She was brought to Gary who treated her with acupuncture for the problem. After about 8 sessions of acupuncture, Roisin noticed a vast improvement in Evo's condition and her general well-being.
Anecdotally, acupuncture has also been useful in cases of animal paralysis, serious and extremely painful osteoarthritis, muscle wastage, and seems to have made a positive difference to the animal's everyday life and well-being. And research seems to be emerging in line with the anecdotal success stories.
Increasingly we are seeing awareness amongst people that what is put into their body, be it food or medication, will affect them positively or negatively. That same mindset is coming into play for their animals, who are often regarded very literally as 'part of the family'. They will look for other means or methods of treating an animal before putting them on a heavy course of steroids, or subjecting them to an invasive procedure. This is where acupuncture and other non-traditional Veterinary therapies might offer a way forward.

This is one of a collection of films made by the Selby Cine Club. This film provides a wonderful overview of the town of Selby as it was in 1965 and is accompanied by an interesting historical commentary. It shows pedestrians and traffic in the town centre, many of the shops, and includes the Toll Bridge, the Monday market, the Reverend John Kent giving a tour of the Abbey, the shipyard, the BOCM Mill, and a Council meeting.
This 1980s Tyne Tees Television feature is an anarchic spoof tour of the cult satirical rag 'Viz' at its offices in Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne, and at a photo shoot, introduced by creator Chris Donald with a hefty dose of smutty innuendo. Includes examples of some of the foul-mouthed cartoon characters such as Roger Mellie (the Man on the Telly), Buster Gonad, Biffa Bacon, Sid the Sexist, Jack Black and his dog Silver.

Lord, I Would Follow Thee
1. Savior, may I learn to love thee,
Walk the path that thou hast shown,
Pause to help and lift another,
Finding strength beyond my own.
Savior, may I learn to love thee–
Lord, I would follow thee.
2. Who am I to judge another
When I walk imperfectly?
In the quiet heart is hidden
Sorrow that the eye can't see.
Who am I to judge another?
3. I would be my brother's keeper;
I would learn the healer's art.
To the wounded and the weary
I would show a gentle heart.
I would be my brother's keeper–
4. Savior, may I love my brother
As I know thou lovest me,
Find in thee my strength, my beacon,
For thy servant I would be.
Savior, may I love my brother–

Mark 12
[28] And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?
[29] And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
[30] And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

Matthew 7
[1] Judge not, that ye be not judged.
[2] For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
[3] And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
[4] Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
[5] Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Back in February I wrote my first blog on the fear I associated with this project. I realize now, that while I was afraid I would fail at this project, I was more overwhelmed by the task we had before us. I had thought of the sheer amount of school supplies it would take to fill our 110 box goal as a class, and just didn't know if we could do it. As the semester went on, the pressure of the goal did get to one of our classmates. In the end, he dropped the class and our goal was adjusted to 100 boxes. This still left us with 79,200 cubic inches of space to fill with school supplies. To put this in perspective, imagine a gallon of milk. 79,200 cubic inches fills about 343 gallons! That is ALOT of space. Even with this new, smaller goal, I was afraid we were going to fail and overwhelmed with the job we had to do.
I finished my portion of the goal last month. I had collected my ten boxes and was pleased with the results of my efforts. At that point, my fear of this project turned into triumph. I had met my goal, and with almost a month left, I had a feeling that my classmates would meet their goals too. Last week and today, we had two classes of pure chaos.
We spent our time packing, taping, labeling, counting, filling out custom's forms, and loading boxes into cars. Everyone kind of did his or her own thing, and I just thought it was amazing to look around and see such a flurry of activity. All for the children of Afghanistan.
Last week we mailed 45 boxes, and today we are mailing 66 boxes. This brings us to 111 boxes of school supplies we have collected, with a few more boxes to pack on Thursday in a special class meeting. This means we did it! We smashed through our 100 box goal!
111 boxes of triumph over our fear of this project. 111 boxes of hope for the children of Afghanistan. When I started this class I never realized the difference it would make. Through our class, I am making a difference in the lives of children more than 7000 miles away. I will never meet these children, but I know their education will benefit from the work I have done this semester. I, and my classmates, have provided enough school supplies for hundreds of students. While I cannot go to Afghanistan and change the poverty level, I can provide school supplies. I can provide access to education. I can provide hope.
And you can too.

With apple recently having the patent 7657849 approved it would seem that they are hell bent on ensuring technology outside Apple does not evolve.
"A device with a touch-sensitive display may be unlocked via gestures performed on the touch-sensitive display. The device is unlocked if contact with the display corresponds to a predefined gesture for unlocking the device. The device displays one or more unlock images with respect to which the predefined gesture is to be performed in order to unlock the device. The performance of the predefined gesture with respect to the unlock image may include moving the unlock image to a predefined location and/or moving the unlock image along a predefined path. The device may also display visual cues of the predefined gesture on the touch screen to remind a user of the gesture. In addition, there is a need for sensory feedback to the user regarding progress towards satisfaction of a user input condition that is required for the transition to occur."
The patent in summary covers pretty much every gesture that could be used to unlock a touchscreen by users touching the screen and in turn makes every Android device in existence to breach the patent laws.
Is this a cure for ICS to be pushed to all known devices or will Google find another way round this ridiculous patent law?

John Coltrane recording of "Alabama"
Uploaded on Apr 6, 2010
This is a section of Steve Rowland's radio documentary "Tell Me How Long Trane's Been Gone". Produced/directed by Rowland, written by Larry Abrams and narrated by Michael S. Harper. The composition "Alabama" was released in 1963 shortly after the horrific murder of 4 Little Girls in a church in Birmingham, AL. Some jazz writers have claimed that the tune is NOT about these 4 girls. We disagree and think this shows that Coltrane might have memorized parts of Martin Luther King's moving eulogy and based his composition on the words. See what you think!

Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, on June 27 1961.
A promotional film made by Turners Film Production for Derwentside District Council in association with BSC Industry Ltd that looks at the potential development of Derwentside following the closure of BSC Consett.

Item description: Letter, 18 January 1862, from Malachi J. White to William S. Pettigrew.
Throughout 1861 and 1862, William S. Pettigrew was in Raleigh, serving as Washington County's representative to the North Carolina Secession Convention. During his absence from his plantation, Scuppernong, Pettigrew apparently enlisted a man named Malachi J. White to oversee the work of the plantation. White wrote to Pettigrew frequently to report on the condition of the plantation, the cultivation of crops, and the activities of Pettigrew's slaves (often passing along messages dictated by them, such as the note in this letter, "Glasgow wishes to be remembered to you also veary kindly he has 20 acres broken up in the western field.").
Little is known about Malachi J. White. An "M.J. White" appears in the 1860 census for Washington County, N.C. Due to the position of the listing in the census and its proximity to known Pettigrew neighbors, it is presumed that this "M.J. White" is the writer of the letter, one Malachi J. White. He is listed as white, 37 years of age, having a personal estate worth $145. His wife is listed (Frances, 27 years old) and there are three children living in the household: Nancy (10), Henry (5), Bailey (4 months), as well as a live-in relative, Elizabeth A. White (39), whose relationship to the rest of the family is unclear.
Item citation: From folder 250 of the Pettigrew Family Papers, #592, Southern Historical Collection, Wilson Library, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Sunday Evening Ekklesia
Sunday Evening Ekklesia (the word church is derived from the greek word ekklesia) or SEE, is a gathering of children and adults for education and fellowship. Children split their time between choir and missions (there is also a nursery available), while the adults (right now, mainly 20 somethings to 40 somethings) gather for discussion and friendship.

SEE concludes with a shared meal (a small donation is appreciated but not necessary) at 6:30pm.
