Review: Joe Henry weighs risks and rewards of love
Joe Henry, "Invisible Hour" (Work Song)
Joe Henry has produced artists ranging from Aaron Neville and Billy Bragg to Me'Shell Ndegeocello and Bonnie Raitt. Yet when he makes his own albums, they sound like no one else.
"Invisible Hour" is an enchanting 60 minutes of music packaged in 11 songs that reveal their charms slowly. Henry opens with a seven-minute ballad, and a subsequent one runs even longer. Clearly Henry's in no hurry as he expresses his thoughts on the risks and rewards of love.
Hooks are few and the accompaniment is spare, with the thrum of guitar interrupted by occasional spasms of percussion and woodwinds from Henry's son, Levon, who merges the sounds of klezmer, New Orleans and Stravinsky.
Even amid trilling clarinets, the focus remains on Henry's lyrics, which read like literature, with unpredictable rhythms and noun-verb combinations. Hearts wane. Shadows wait. Angels rumble. Days flee.
He sings these words with the timbre of a soul man and scoops into them like a country artist. Henry is both, and neither, producing music beyond category. This is what makes "Invisible Hour" time well spent.

John C. Stocks named NEA Executive Director
Committed to students, voice of educators, Stocks to lead staff of largest union
WASHINGTON - August 31, 2011 -
National Education Association (NEA) President Dennis Van Roekel today announced that John C. Stocks will become the Association's next executive director on Sept. 1, 2011. A native of New Orleans, La., John Stocks has been serving as NEA deputy executive director since 2004.
"NEA welcomes John's supreme strategic skills and his unflagging commitment to students and our members," said Van Roekel. "John brings unmatched expertise in directing complex organizations, and he knows our Association well. He understands the needs of students, especially those in poverty, and the challenges that face educators. John values the talents of our members; he will ensure their ideas and voices are heard by policymakers."
As executive director, Stocks will direct the day-to-day operations of the Association, which has a staff of 535 and an annual budget of $371 million. As the nation's largest union, NEA and its state and local affiliates across the country represent 3.2 million educators, including teachers, education support professionals, higher education faculty and staff, school administrators, retired educators and students preparing to become teachers. Stocks replaces John I. Wilson, who is retiring as NEA's executive director of 10 years.
"NEA members are deeply committed to the success of their students, and I am honored to work for an organization that represents them," said NEA Executive Director John C. Stocks. "From strengthening the profession of teaching to advocating for great public schools, NEA will continue to be powerful voice for justice and opportunity."
As deputy executive director from 2004-2011, Stocks spearheaded NEA's policy, political and membership priorities. Under his leadership, NEA charted a new course of mobilizing its ranks in support of improving the federal No Child Left Behind law, transforming its political organization and building new strategic alliances to champion public education.
Stocks' commitment to public education spans decades. From 1990-2004, he served as assistant executive director for public affairs at the Wisconsin Education Association Council (WEAC), with oversight for the 98,000-member Association's public relations, legislative, political action, and teaching and learning departments. With Stocks at the helm, WEAC championed legislative efforts to expand early childhood education, improve student achievement, lower class sizes and ensure comprehensive standards for teachers.
An unmatched drive for social justice and positive change in education has been the signature of John Stocks' career. Prior to joining WEAC, he served as executive director of Idaho Fair Share, a grassroots citizen action organization dedicated to keeping utility rates affordable for working families, and spearheaded legislation on behalf of low and moderate income utility ratepayers.
In 1988, Stocks ran for the Idaho state senate, defeating a four-term incumbent. His legislative record includes successfully shepherding a bill—one of his proudest achievements— to improve protections for people facing bankruptcy due to family medical crises. He established his bona fides in political strategy as chief architect of the Idaho Senate Democrats' re-election plans, securing seven new Senate seats and protecting all incumbents over three election cycles.
Stocks has been recognized by leading national organizations as an agent for progressive change. In 2007, he was honored by the Midwest Academy, a grassroots training institute with a long tradition of preparing progressive leaders. He was also honored by the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center for his innovative work in ballot measure campaigning, winning difficult battles in support of students, educators and the middle class.
Stocks is a graduate of Evergreen State College in Olympia, Wash. He and his wife, Connie, have two children.

Just got back from my 2nd trip back to KL, and what a trip it was. I managed to do most of the stuff that I wanted to do, which was to watch 'Iron Man' on the big THX screen (you can never get this in Labuan!!!), finally tasted the deliciousness of 'DELIcious @ Marc Residence' restaurant that everyone seems to be raving about, tried-out the newly opened 'Wendy's' at Sunway Pyramid and even managed to pay Melaka a visit on a 1-day trip. Oh, and yes, I managed to get my J.Co donuts too, and not forgetting a steaming hot cup of 'Hazelnut White Cofee' at 'Oldtown Kopitiam'. For more details, kindly read on my dear friends!!!
P.S. I'll be splitting the post into a few parts as I think it's going to be waaaaaaay too long for a normal decent person to digest it all at one go. So, for the first part it will be 'Day 1 and 2'….
I still remember the day when I touched-down in Labuan, fresh from my 1st trip back to KL that another journey to the capital was going to the a long and hard one. But would you know it, before I got time to feel home-sick and all that, a month had passed and my second journey to KL is now upon me once again. While packing my things for my 5-day home trip, I could not contemplate that I am actually packing for a trip home, and not for work. I could not feel excitement; I could not feel the thrill of heading home. Why was that? I could not answer you, probably because I am now so used to the life in Labuan, or my last trip back to KL was just a short distance back. Or probably I was just dead tired that day from the rush to complete my work. And that was how I felt when I boarded the plane.
Tugging all those "excess baggage" of chocolates, alcohol and souvenirs had become a big burden too, as on my left hand there was a big bag containing 10 bars of 'Cadbury' chocolates, 3 bars of 'Meiji Rich Strawberry' chocolates and bars and bars of other chocolates that I had no memory of buying, and yet its in my bag. How come??!! Then on my right hand was a bag for alcohol; 1 bottle of 'Dom' and another bottle of 'Chivas' ('Dom' is considered medicine so I think I am entitled to cross customs with another bottle of alcohol). Then there was my backpack which contained my laptop, a few stuffed bears as souvenirs and a few loose cans of imported drinks and beer (which I think is illegal as I am already bringing over 1 bottle of 'Chivas', but what the hell). And the sad point is, all this stuff is not for me but for silly friends that are so demanding. See how good a friend I am??!! When I die I want my ashes to be kept in a jar inside all of your rooms!!! Just joking ;)
Upon touch down in LCCT airport, I coolly walked straight out of the gates to avoid any custom checks (but nowadays I hardly notice any customs officers anymore) and the first thing I see is….no one I know. Crap. There was no one to fetch me from the airport back to my Subang home. Sigh. My friend can only fetch me from 'KL Central' (which is probably a good idea as my friend was a girl and I didn't want her to drive all the way from Ampang to LCCT at night all by herself). I bought a bus ticket to 'KL Central' and the bus was conveniently parked a few feet away. Just as I was sitting down, the bus departed nicely on time. Perfect. Around 40 minutes time I arrived at 'KL Central' and my friend was already waiting, my first contact of KL life for over a month.
We didn't head straight back to Subang as I was feeling hungry. So, since we are so near to KL and it is KL that I had not seen for over a month, we drove straight into the heart of KL itself: Petaling Street. At this infamous street known for its right and wrong reasons, pockets of eating stalls lie along it with offerings of bountiful delicacy. No, there are no fried crickets or cockroaches to be had, here lies gifts of 'Lo She Fan' (very famous not only among the locals that reside around Petaling Street, but famous throughout KL in general), 'Tai Chow' (ever popular with the late-night eaters) and humble offerings of porridge. We sat ourselves at the 'Tai Chow' corner and tucked-in a big plate of 'yee mee' cooked in Hokkien style. This stall was not a stall in particular, but its actually a restaurant that had extended its cooking area onto the streets, I guess to appeal to the 'Tai Chow' eating masses that 'Tai Chow' should always be cooked out-doors and not in-doors!!!
After that satisfactory late dinner we headed back home to Subang and I had my rest for the next day…
Day 2: Thursday
The next morning I woke-up feeling very puckish for hot mouthfuls of 'Dim Sum'. SL was around to accompany me to satisfy my body-burning desire for buns of the pork variety, so I suggested we go to a restaurant that had recently expanded its reputation for not only providing good and fresh baskets of 'Dim Sum', but also dishes of Chinese delicacy that is not only tasty but plush with variety. The place was 'Reunion' at 'Bangsar Shopping Village 2', and when we arrived, it was packed and we were placed on a waiting list. No matter, a man that looked like the Captain of the restaurant wrote my name and hand-phone number down and politely asked us to walk around the mall while waiting for their call when seats become available. It was a good idea at that time, so we walked. And walked. And walked until my stomach was rumbling. We went back to the restaurant and asked if there are any seats available but they gave a shrug of disapproval. However, I did notice that big crowds were going into the restaurant quite regularly but a table for 2 persons for me was not yet available. And why was that? Is business for 2 persons not profitable enough for this restaurant? I do not know, so we walked off and gave up on this place. So remember guys and gals out there, they do not serve groups of 2 and below as I guess it is not profitable enough for them, so don't waste your time there as they are hungry, money-minded parasites gunning for nothing but your $$$$!!!!
Anyway, we headed downstairs and decided on another place to eat and ended up in 'Marmalade Café'. I've heard a few good things about this place so we decided to have a try. Ambiance-wise there wasn't much to shout about but I have to say that the place was bright with adequate sunlight coming into the café so it gave the patrons a sunny spark to eat and chat enthusiastically.
So this was what I ordered:
Spaghetti Funghi: This is much better as the taste of garlic and mushrooms was nicely blended, not too heavy and not too light. The best dish of the afternoon!!!
Salmon Frittata & Chocolate Oreo Mint Shake: The drink was very nice (how can you go wrong with Oreo's?) but the Salmon Frittata however was disappointing. It was not salty enough and the salmon was just too hard to find!!!
The bill came out to be around RM70 for those few dishes so this place can be quite expensive!!! I mean, I don't really mind the price as long as it is worth my money. So, as a warning, do not simply order and check prices first before messing with the waiters as not only are the dishes kinda expensive but not all dishes tastes good. As a better and safer bet, go to 'DELIcious' just downstairs of 'Bangsar Shopping Village 2'. Prices are about the same but MUCH tastier, and most of the time you cannot go wrong with the dishes you order (which means most the dishes tastes good lah).
P.S. I didn't go to 'DELIcious' this time because I was saving it for Saturday at Marc Residence, KL. It will be in next post soon!!!
With my stomach filled up, we walked around the mall and bumped into a 'FJ Benjamin' clearance sale inside the mall. If you don't know what 'FJ Benjamin' is, they are a fashion apparel supplier of top brands such as Guess, GAP, Raoul, La Senza, Banana Republic, watches from brands such as Nike, Victorinox, Nautica, Bell & Ross and many more.
This sale was by invitation only or if you have a HSBC credit card, you are allowed to enter. Luckily, me being a guy filled with debt and have to rely on credit cards to survive (haha), I whipped out my HSBC credit card and was politely whisked into the sale. The place was packed to the brim with people, but fortunately the air-con was powerful enough so shopping was a breeze. I saw a GAP khakis that I really liked, the color was greenish-greyish and the cutting was semi-baggy and was not too straight. Perfect. But the price: RM 250. CRAP. Isn't this supposed to be clearance SALE??!! I was really tempted but decided not to buy it as I am saving to buy a new handphone soon ;) I saw so many nice stuff there, simple good quality 'Guess' T-shirts was selling at RM 40 and 'Guess' jeans was going for RM 100. The design and style may not be the most current but for casual branded wear, I think all this stuff are a steal!!! But I didn't buy anything haha.
However SL went berserk on the buying and bought 3 'Raoul' shirts, 2 'Guess' T-shirts and nearly bought a 'GAP' bag. Total bill for the spurge: RM500. Omigod, I can eat so much with RM500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Luckily I didn't pay for the bill so I'm safe kekeke….
We spent almost 3 hours inside there, looking and testing out garment after garment of apparels. After our shopping was done, we were dead tired and wanted to go somewhere to drink and chill. 'Coffee Bean' was packed so we left the mall and crossed the road to 'Mango Mania'. We were chit-chatting about the things I've missed since I was away from KL and suddenly another group of people that had done their shopping at the same clearance sale sat beside us. They noticed we had bought something there as well and politely asked us what we bought. Wow, I didn't know people can start a conversation with strangers just by asking on what we bought at the same place!!! They looked like friendly people so we compared stuff and chatted on when and where will be the next clearance sale. At the moment, with all the shopping and chitchatting about clothes and sales, I truly felt like a 40-year-old auntie. God, what's happening to me??!!
On the next post (Day 3 & 4), shopping and eating at a pasar malam & dining at DELIcious @ Marc Residence, KL. See you then!!!

2012 Leo Reano Memorial Award
Dreams of Eagles
Non-Members, Nebraska
Presented to a nominee whose activities in American Indian/Alaska Native affairs significantly impact education and equal opportunities for American Indian/Alaska natives.
(Download printable format, PDF, 86 KB, 1p)
From the tip of South America to the Arctic Circle, the eagle has been a very special creature for Native Americans. Their power and grace are revered. A common Native American greeting reflects this reverence: "May you have the strength of eagles' wings, the faith and courage to fly to new heights, and the wisdom of the universe to carry you there."
Dreams of Eagles is an intertribal organization (with 501C status), with the courage to fly to new heights. Headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, its purpose is to preserve the tribal customs, oral traditions, language and history of Native Americans and Alaska Natives by uniting people with tribal and village elders. The founders of Dreams of Eagles recognized the need for organized cultural activities and classes to assist Native people living in urban settings to maintain their cultural traditions and share those traditions with non-native people.
Through the efforts of many dedicated individuals, Dreams of Eagles has successfully brought together members of the following tribes: Athabascan, Cherokee, Chicameca, Huron, Lakota, Mdeakiantonwon, Mesquaki, Miniconjos Sioux, Navajo, Oglala, Ojibwe, Pawnee, Ponca, Pottawattamie, Roebud, Seneca, Santee, Sisseton, Tlaxcalpeca, Tobique mauseet-First Nations, Totanacak, Uma nhon, Wahpeton Sioux, Winnebago and Yankton Sioux.
The biggest event by far that Dreams of Eagles organizes is the annual Native American/Indian Education Days. For the past seven years, this event has exposed all the children in the fourth grades of Omaha Public Schools to Native American arts, crafts, traditions, lifestyle, and history. Fourth grade teachers prepare their students the day before and do follow-up activities the day after. There are approximately 4,000 students in the fourth grade in Omaha schools. Therefore, approximately 28,000 students have experienced Native American/Indian Days. Significantly, this Dreams of Eagles event takes place on the very grounds where Chief Standing Bear was housed at Fort Omaha during his famous trial. Chief Standing Bear was a native Ponca, and as a result of his trial, Native Americans were determined to have rights as individuals under the law. "I Am A Man": Chief Standing Bear's Journey For Justice, by Joe Starita (last year's Leo Reano Memorial Award winner), chronicles this important chapter in American history.
In addition to this annual event, Dreams of Eagles organizes Native games, dance exhibitions and pow wows as well as classes in beadwork, quilting, moccasin making and other Native art forms. Moreover, Dreams of Eagles has an even bigger dream: A Native American Community Center in Omaha, with a multitude of activities intended primarily for educating young people.

NTIA Seeking Volunteer Panelists To Evauluate Broadband Proposals
By: John Eggerton, Broadcasting & Cable
John and Jane Q. Public will get a shot at vetting the bids for the $4.7 billion in grant money in the broadband portion of the economic stimulus package.
NTIA said Wednesday it is looking for a few good men and women to serve as volunteer panelists to evaluate the proposals.
It said it would have panels reviewing its first round of grant proposals through at least the end of September.
Proposals can be submitted starting July 14 and are due by Aug. 14, so NTIA is looking for panelists on a first-come, first-served basis.
But there is an asterisk after the "come one, come all" casting call. To be make the cut as a panelist, applicants will need to have "significant expertise" in either the building of broadband networks, or the spread of the broadband gospel via outreach, training or education.
NTIA says it wants a diverse pool and says resumes can be e-mailed to email@example.com.
No money will change hands, but there is the assurance that "you will be making a significant contribution to enhancing broadband services throughout the United States."

Avian Flu
Avian (or bird) flu is caused by influenza viruses that occur naturally among birds. The highly pathogenic H5N1 variant is deadly to domestic fowl (such as chickens) and can be transmitted from birds to people. The H7N9 strain does not appear to sicken birds, but it has been recently infecting people. (see CDC website for more information)
Seasonal (or regular) flu is a respiratory illness that can be transmitted person to person. Most people have some immunity, and a vaccine is available.
Pandemic flu is a deadly human flu that causes a global outbreak, or pandemic, of serious illness. Because there is little natural immunity, the disease can spread easily from person to person. Currently, there is not pandemic flu in the world.
Influenza A is a family of viruses that affects birds and other animals. Avian influenza (also called "bird flu") refers to the strains of the virus that infect birds. Bird flu can cause widespread illness and death among birds, though there are many different strains, which vary in strength. All known subtypes of influenza circulate among wild birds, which are considered the natural host for influenza A viruses. Not all influenza A strains infect humans, however. Those that do can cause high death rates. There is much concern that a strain that infects people will change and easily transmit from person to person causing a global pandemic that kills millions.
Avian influenza (strain H5N1) was first detected in humans in 1997 in Hong Kong, where it infected both chickens and people. This was the first time the avian influenza virus had ever been found to jump directly from birds to humans. During this outbreak 18 people were hospitalized and 6 died. To control the outbreak 1.5 million chickens were killed. Since then there have been several other outbreaks in Asia and Europe.
How the Avian Flu is Spread
The disease is spread by the saliva, nasal secretions, and feces of infected animals, which other animals or humans then come in contact with. The only way to stop its spread is to kill the infected birds. There are several strains circulating among birds, but the H5N1 strain is also infecting people who have been in close contact with chickens.
Symptoms of avian influenza in humans have ranged from typical influenza-like symptoms, such as fever, cough, sore throat, and muscle aches, to eye infections, pneumonia, acute respiratory distress, viral pneumonia, and other severe and life-threatening complications. The symptoms may depend upon the infection.
The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) requires the quarantine of any birds, fowl (e.g., chickens and ducks), exotic birds, and pets, before they enter the US It is safe to eat chicken as long as it is thoroughly cooked because cooking kills the virus. Travelers to countries in Asia with documented H5N1 outbreaks are advised to avoid poultry farms, contact with animals in live food markets, and any surfaces that appear to be contaminated with feces from poultry or other animals.

We select the most talented campers for a 10 day tour to the Netherlands, to play against top-level Dutch youth teams and to experience our culture. Parents are welcome to join. Check here for more info
We fly in our coaches directly from the Netherlands. They are not merely coaches: they are also teachers. Many of our coaches have a Bachelor of Arts degree in physical education. At the ALO (Academy for physical education), coaches not only received their coaching licenses from the global leader in soccer development: KNVB (Royal Dutch Soccer Federation) they also learn how to work with, encourage and incentivize young athletes.
Every camp group will have the same Dutch coach for the entire week. Our coaches will get to know each of the players in their group and will coach them individually, assessing their needs and improving the specific areas best for them. Check out our coaching staff here

Each afternoon includes Power Shooting training, improving the technique combined with moves and first touch training.
In the Dutch soccer vision, the 4 vs. 4 game is the cornerstone. These games provide the foundation for playing attractive soccer. Each player has many touches on the ball, while learning to solve a variety of soccer problems. The 4 vs.4 provides many goals and excitement. Each afternoon we organize different 4 vs. 4 formats. Players will play short games, with and against different players each time.
At the Dutch Soccer School our players don't just train. We also create games out of almost every exercise. Campers can win exciting prices! Beside the Dutch 4 vs. 4 competition with individual winners, we challenge our campers with camp finals in 1 vs. 1, dribbling course, penalties, and shooting.

Patrick: 'Birth through college' plan needs $1B a year
Gov. unveils new education plan Tuesday
Gov. Deval Patrick on Tuesday called for another $1 billion in new taxes and revenues a year to fund an ambitious expansion of Massachusetts public education from "birth through college."
The plan would cost $550 million the first year, but increase to nearly $1 billion a year for the four succeeding years and pay for "high quality early education from birth to age five," college more accessible, expand community colleges and provide more help for students in need.
The proposal comes one day after he unveiled another $1 billion a year plan to revive, rebuild and expand the state's transportation system.
Patrick said he will release details Wednesday at his annual State of the State address on exactly which taxes, fares, fees and tolls he will push to hike to pay for these two ambitious programs.
The governor released details of his plan at the Orchard Garden Elementary School, surrounded by youngsters.
"Which one of these 4-year-olds should we leave behind?" asked Patrick, pointing to dozens of children sharing the stage with him.
Asked if the economy was strong enough to hike taxes, Patrick compared the economy to the weather.
"I think the economy is improving and we're going to be stronger if we take action," he said. "We can't treat the economy like the weather.
"We don't have to stand around and wait for it ... to happen to us, wait for someone to forecast what's going to happen. We can build our own future," the governor added.

Mustang MonthlyHow To Chassis Suspension
How To Suspension Detail on '71-'73 Mustangs
Lazarus Gets A New-Looking Suspension
Detailing is an art form in which most anyone can express themselves. All it really takes is some paint and someone to steer you toward what to use for color. We have gone out, bought the colors, and now know what closely mimics the original finishes. Suffice it to say, the cabinet that houses our paint collection is stuffed full of grays, silvers, and blacks, not to mention reds, yellows, and other trifling colors.
We proceed with the detailing of our front suspension as with everything else. If there wasn't a mark on the part, we didn't put one it. Once again, as in the article "How To Detail and Assemble Front Disc Brakes" (Jan. 2000, p. 66), we used parts from many different sources. National Parts Depot supplied some of our suspension, AutoKrafters gave us the tie-rod boots, Inline Tube provided us with the correct brake lines, while AMK's excellent body-bolt kit helped us return our project to the factory look. For our new front springs, we turned to Eaton Detroit Spring. Now that the car is a rolling chassis again, we can move on to the color sanding, and buffing of the car.

#EndSARS: Ekiti state government declares 24-hour curfew
Following the various attacks on #EndSARS protesters in the state, Governor Kayode Fayemi has imposed a 24-hour curfew on the state effective from 10pm on today, Tuesday, October 20.
In a statement released by the Secretary to the State Government, Biodun Oyebanji, the state government said the curfew became necessary following the state government's observation of how the end SARS protest, which started as a peaceful protest against police brutality by youths in Ekiti State, has been hijacked by some hoodlums.
Read the statement below
1. The Government of Ekiti State has observed with growing concern how the ENDSARS protest, which started as a peaceful protest against police brutality by youths in Ekiti State, has been hijacked by some hoodlums.
2. The hoodlums have capitalised on the ENDSARS protest to rape, assault, rob and extort innocent citizens across the State. These are in addition to the wanton destruction of properties, particularly private properties.
3. Government is concerned that if this state of affairs is allowed to continue unabated, it will lead to a breakdown of law and order thereby threatening the wellbeing of the people of Ekiti State.
4. For the purpose of clarity Government continues to show understanding and responsiveness to the demands of the legitimate protesters.
5. On 16th October 2020, Dr. John Kayode Fayemi, Governor, Ekiti State met with the protesters in person. While identifying with the legitimacy of their protests, he assured them that the State Government will immediately put measures in place to respond to all their demands.
6. Government has since then constituted a Human Rights Investigation Panel to review all cases of abuse by Officers of the disbanded SARS. In addition, Government has enabled a Victims Compensation Fund to facilitate speedy remedial measures for victims of such abuse.
7. Furthermore, several officials of Government have engaged the protesters at multiple fora and platforms including the social media in order to ensure that concerns of protesters are properly identified and responded to in a prompt and efficient manner with necessary feedback.
8. Government had also at various times drawn the attention of the protesters to the troubling hijack of the protests by individuals whose only interest is to inflict violence on the people of the state.
9. In the past 48 hours there have been incidents of gang-rape, robberies, physical assaults on innocent people, looting and burning of a police station. These acts of brigandage are not in consonance with the legitimate aspirations of the protesters. It cannot be logical to seek to remedy impunity with impunity.
10. Government therefore cannot afford to watch a deliberate enthronement of anarchy by some bad elements who have hijacked the protest for some clandestine reasons.
11. Consequently, the Governor of Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi, hereby imposes a 24-hour curfew on all parts of the State starting from 10.00 pm tonight, Tuesday, October, 20, 2020.
12. Only essential workers and service providers with valid means of identifications are allowed to move around during the period of the curfew.
13. Any person found on the street that does not belong to this category, would be promptly arrested and prosecuted according to the laws of Ekiti State.
14. We seek the understanding of the good people of Ekiti State as we continue to take deliberate steps towards ensuring that peace and normalcy return to our state."

Nigerian superstar, Davido has said criminals are responsible for the attack on two Correctional Centres in Benin City, Edo State.
Davido made the claim while absolving End SARS protesters of involvement in the attacks.
The singer pointed out that no amount of mischief would stop the protest against police brutality and bad governance.
Davido made the remark while condemning the attack on two Correctional Centres in Benin City, Edo State.
The hoodlums had attacked the facilities and freed some inmates.
Reacting, the singer in a series of tweets wrote: "After seeing all that's gone on today I just want to say that from the beginning we have preached that the protest must remain peaceful and Law Abiding and as far as I know we have kept to that! And we will continue to keep to that so the narrative can NOT be switched up on us!
"The people they claim broke into prisons to free convicted criminals, burn police stations to steal weapons, damage police, government, and private vehicles are Criminals and everybody must condemn these acts. They are not part of our movement !
"#EndSars is a peaceful and law abiding protest that is going somewhere great! And no mischief can scatter it!"

Hangover Helper: Chicken and Waffles at Little Skillet, San Francisco
Just what the doctor ordered.
Ever had a morning where you can barely get out of bed, much less risk sitting through an entire meal at a restaurant? Yeah, it happens to the best of us. Send a friend to the window at Little Skillet, a small take-out restaurant that serves some of the best soul food in San Francisco.
While the po'boys and the shrimp and grits are good lunch options, there is nothing better for a hangover than the chicken and waffles. You get a choice of one, two, or three pieces of fried chicken (I like to think of this as the hangover scale). The fried chicken is delicious—juicy and flavorful with a thin, crunchy layer of buttermilk coating. The skin is so good that you might find yourself gnawing it off the bone.
Underneath the chicken you'll find a fluffy waffle with a perfectly crisp exterior and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. The pile of chicken and waffles is brought together by a gloriously thick drizzle of syrup. A well positioned forkful creates a salty and sweet explosion that will hopefully be even bigger than the pounding in your head. Wash it all down with a Mexican Coca-Cola, then crawl back into bed. Ah, sweet relief.

Starfall Tactics - a space wargame with RTS elements
It sounds interesting, thanks. We thought about allowing to name the supply station / outpost / mothership in a system, btw.Renaming the planets is part of the fun of conquering (at least to me). Instead of keeping the names that are entered in alpha tests and having them be set forever, I'd like to suggest that players can rename newly discovered planets 'for free', and planets that are already named when they conquer the supply station / outpost / mothership in the system.
Well, I assume that making some extra warpgates somewhere - would be a useful option.How does one travel without a warp gate? Being forced to use warp gates seems to limit exploration to already discovered regions, and forces people to go through quite a few systems, some controlled by an enemy faction, to get to a nearby system.
