In information technology, telecommunications, and related fields, handshaking is an automated process of negotiation that dynamically sets parameters of a communications channel established between two entities before normal communication over the channel begins. It follows the physical establishment of the channel and precedes normal information transfer.
The handshaking process usually takes place in order to establish rules for communication when a computer sets about communicating with a foreign device. When a computer communicates with another device like a modem, printer, or network server, it needs to handshake with it to establish a connection.
Handshaking can negotiate parameters that are acceptable to equipment and systems at both ends of the communication channel, including information transfer rate, coding alphabet, parity, interrupt procedure, and other protocol or hardware features. Handshaking is a technique of communication between two entities. However, within TCP/IP RFCs, the term "handshake" is most commonly used to reference the TCP three-way handshake. For example, the term "handshake" is not present in RFCs covering FTP or SMTP. One exception is Transport Layer Security, TLS, setup, FTP RFC 4217. In place of the term "handshake", FTP RFC 3659 substitutes the term "conversation" for the passing of commands.[1][2][3]
A simple handshaking protocol might only involve the receiver sending a message meaning "I received your last message and I am ready for you to send me another one." A more complex handshaking protocol might allow the sender to ask the receiver if it is ready to receive or for the receiver to reply with a negative acknowledgement meaning "I did not receive your last message correctly, please resend it" (e.g., if the data was corrupted en route).[4]
Handshaking facilitates connecting relatively heterogeneous systems or equipment over a communication channel without the need for human intervention to set parameters.
Establishing a normal TCP connection requires three separate steps:
One of the most important factors of three-way handshake is that, in order to exchange the starting sequence number the two sides plan to use, the client first sends a segment with its own initial sequence number , then the server responds by sending a segment with its own sequence number and the acknowledgement number , and finally the client responds by sending a segment with acknowledgement number .
The reason for the client and server not using the default sequence number such as 0 for establishing connection is to protect against two incarnations of the same connection reusing the same sequence number too soon, which means a segment from an earlier incarnation of a connection might interfere with a later incarnation of the connection.
The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the key Internet standard for email transmission. It includes handshaking to negotiate authentication, encryption and maximum message size.
When a Transport Layer Security (SSL or TLS) connection starts, the record encapsulates a "control" protocol--the handshake messaging protocol (content type 22). This protocol is used to exchange all the information required by both sides for the exchange of the actual application data by TLS. It defines the messages formatting or containing this information and the order of their exchange. These may vary according to the demands of the client and server--i.e., there are several possible procedures to set up the connection. This initial exchange results in a successful TLS connection (both parties ready to transfer application data with TLS) or an alert message (as specified below).
The protocol is used to negotiate the secure attributes of a session. (RFC 5246, p. 37)[5]
The WPA2 standard for wireless uses a four-way handshake defined in IEEE 802.11i-2004.
One classic example of handshaking is that of dial-up modems, which typically negotiate communication parameters for a brief period when a connection is first established, and thereafter use those parameters to provide optimal information transfer over the channel as a function of its quality and capacity. The "squealing" (which is actually a sound that changes in pitch 100 times every second) noises made by some modems with speaker output immediately after a connection is established are in fact the sounds of modems at both ends engaging in a handshaking procedure; once the procedure is completed, the speaker might be silenced, depending on the settings of operating system or the application controlling the modem.

This and your latest piece really do feel like a step up from your older stuff. It includes more elements and overall seems more thought out. Awesome job.
Oh and an FYI for the dude that wrote the other review - use of oscillated bass =/= dubstep. This certainly takes influence from the genre, but at no point do you hear pure dubstep.
Thanks bro :) you're continuous support and advice is as crucial to my music as any filthy bass xL
Actually far more, much grat for the review bro :)

Great location! Marsha was wonderful and Toto was a joy.
The inn is an adorable house with very cozy accommodations. The innkeeper is attentive and does a great job making you feel at home. It is located in a quaint lakeside town with terrific restaurants and local flair. I've stayed here several times and look forward to returning. - Jay
A Very lovely Victorian Home in a beautiful neighborhood of historic homes. The owner Bill made us feel very welcome in his charming home. He left a great binder full of details for our visit. Listed us a walking tour with great directions. My husband and I enjoyed walking the tour and seeing the beautiful homes. And so many restaurants on the tour to pick. We had a tasty breakfast in the morning and were able to a interesting chat with Bill about the history of his home.
This lovely old house is nicely furnished with period pieces and gorgeous woodwork. It's set in a quiet neighborhood close to many of St. Paul's best eateries and great shopping. Bill sent us information regarding check in and breakfast beforehand which made everything easy for us. Our room was prepared as we'd requested and there was plenty of on street parking available. Kate's breakfasts were delicious and varied (we stayed a week) and there were many little extras in our room to ensure a comfortable stay. What we liked best about Cathedral Hill was Bill and his staff. They always went out of their way to assure we had everything we needed to make our visit fun and easy.
The Bird House was a safe, comfortable place to stay while I visited a friend in town. Jeanne had my room ready for an earlier check in and showed me where the snacks and drinks were, including a nice Keurig coffee maker available all day. The living room and front patio are nice places to enjoy reading or talking with other guests. Breakfast was wonderful, everything homemade, and served with the best tomatoes ever from their garden. The house is located at the beginning of a wonderful street of shops, restaurants, with lovely Lake Minnetonka at the end. The Bluebird room was small, but clean with a private hall bath that had a big soaking tub but no shower.
When we first opened the door to the Cathedral Hill Bed and Breakfast we were in awe. The woodwork was absolutely beautiful and it invited you in to a wonderful experience. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and unique. The host, Bill, was wonderful. Not only does he cook a great breakfast but is a wonderful conversationalist. Bill makes you feel right at home. He suggested places to visit as well as giving us history of St. Paul. We would highly recommend staying at the Cathedral Hill Bed and Breakfast and We will be returning the next time we're in St. Paul.
The LeBlanc house opened it's doors for our baby shower and provided a great environment for our low key gathering of family and friends. The food was light and excellent and there was space in the living room and dining room for our gathering of 12 people.
I stayed here one night while visiting Minneapolis for a wedding. The neighborhood surrounding the B&B felt very safe - full of small restaurants and quirky shops. The building was easy to find. The photos on this site should be updated, because it is much nicer inside than you can see in the pics; the single room I stayed in was spacious, and the entire house is very cutely Victorian, but not frou-frou or cluttered. Marsha, the innkeeper, is friendly but unobtrusive, and she gives you your own key at check-in so that you can go in and out as you please. There's a piano and snack fridge downstairs, the wifi through the house is strong, and Ferrero Rocher chocolates were left in my room as a treat. The shower pressure was great, with lots of hot water, and even the bath towels were scented faintly with lavender. Breakfast was lavish, with fresh strawberries, muesli, coffee & OJ, cinnamon buns, toasted bagels, and eggs cooked your way. I had no problem using my BedandBreakfast.com gift card here, and would return again if in the area.
I stayed 5 nights while attending a Conference in down Minneapolis. Each morning Marsha made a delicious and different breakfast, all were delicious. She is a culinary quality talented cook. The Inn has beautiful Victorian Antiques--my favorites were the pump organ in main parlor and the various Eastlake dressers and tables. I stayed in Zoti room with private bath, which has sweeping corner views and lots of light. I walked to the bus stop daily and had little to none surface transportation costs. The nearby restaurant area has a good variety of venues. I walked all around at night alone and found it a very safe and friendly community. I enjoyed my stay very much!
Bill and Katy are wonderful hosts who make you feel right at home. The house and rooms are lovely, and the breakfasts are fresh, delicious, and well-prepared. Information about the neighborhood helped us find a great place for dinner too.
Our stay at the Cathedral Hill was very comfortable. The room (Master Suite) was nice and very spacious. Our hosts were very polite and we really enjoyed walking over to Selby Ave dining and having a few drinks. The breakfast the next morning was good, but nothing gourmet.
My trip to Excelsior this past July was made even more delighful by my stay at this lovely Inn.
My husband and I went to this b&b had a nice time but I guess did not meet my standards for a b&b. Was decorated a little outdated. Stayed at better ones. Would recommend at maybe a different time or for an older couple.
Would definitely stay here again. The owners were very helpful, house was gorgeous, bed comfortable, etc! Walking distance to Xcel Center is why we chose it in the first place.
Bill and Katy are like the old friends you want to come and stay with. Not only for the comfort of their home and delicious breakfast, but it's their warmth, and the love they put into their B&B. After breakfast we would hung around before heading out in the afternoon. They have a beautiful quiet patio in the back where we could sit and read. Or we watched a video from their excellent collection. We also took walks. It was a wonderful stay.
Our plane was late in arriving didn't get to B and B until around 3am. Owner happily opened front door and briefed us cheerifully before we went to bed. Beautiful victorian home. Charming decor and rich woodwork. Bed was huge and probably the best mattress I've ever slept on. No expense spared. Wonderful book, DVD and game library. We would have had no trouble staying entertained if we had a rainy day. Breakfast was generous, tasty and healthy. Bathroom included a variety of shampoos, soaps, and general sundries. Bath towels were large and high quality cotton - not the small less absorbant ones so often used. Mini - fridge with Britta Pitcher of water and a nice supply of sodas was provided in our room. With only 3 rooms at the B and B we really felt special. Looking forward to our next visit to St. Paul. Best B and B experience we've had and we've stayed at quite a few - particularly in New England.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in the lovely oak lined Holly Ave off Summit. Delightful, quiet, impeccable service and a scrumptuous breakfast to send me off on my business day.
We enjoyed our stay at Cathedral Hill Bed and Breakfast. It's a wonderful and beautiful house located in a nice neighborhood close to many restaurants and bars. The rooms are large, the showers are hot and sheets are clean. Breakfast was always a treat and we felt welcome coming in and out of the home. My only grip was that the couch in the larger suite is a bit dated and uncomfortable. We only watched a little TV, but ideally the couch would get upgraded. We'll be back!
Bill and Katy are outstanding innkeepers!
We were travelling with three children (including twin babies) who don't sleep well in the same room. Cathedral Hill B&B made traveling with children a pleasure! The rooms were comfortable and convenient to each other. Katy and Bill made us supper one night so we wouldn't have to haul the kids around. The food, both supper and breakfast, was spectacular. Katy and Bill are both friendly and comfortable to be around. They are very accepting of children and even washed trays and sippy cups for us. The B&B was convenient to main thoroughfares and was easy to find. We hope they will have availability the next time we are in the twin cities!
We had the pleasure of staying with Katy and Bill for one night again this January, and only wish we'd had reason to stay longer. This grand old home is warm and inviting, and Katy and Bill are most gracious hosts. They went out of their way to accommodate our late arrival (but insisted they didn't); the breakfast was delicious and satisfying, the coffee great. The rooms are lovely and comfortable with nice little touches. What is clear is that Katy and Bill do really want to delight their guests, in a graceful and understated way. Their home is situated in a beautiful neighborhood of lovely grand old homes, a couple blocks off of Summit Avenue. I highly recommend this B&B. Thank you, Katy and Bill!
Well run B&B with very nice proprietors. Great location in St. Paul, convenient to restaurants, shopping and in a lovely residential neighborhood. I would stay again.
We stayed here for my husband's 50th birthday as a surprise to him. Katy and Bill helped make it perfect by cooking a special dinner just for us which meant we could really settle in and relax. The food for dinner and breakfast was awesome. We definitely want to return. It felt like our personal home with chefs! And if you love woodwork and detail, this is the B&B for you...as a carpenter, my husband just loved the atmosphere and workmanship. It is clear the house has been lovingly designed and cared for. A very enjoyable stay, we wished we had planned a second night to do our christmas cards by the fire!
I stayed at Cathedral Hill as part of a girlfriends' getaway weekend. We just loved it. We thought the owners were so friendly, and the food was delicious. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cathedral Hill as a place to stay when you are in St. Paul.
My husband and I visited this B & B for the first time last weekend. It was so wonderful. We were able to walk to restaurants, visit downtown St. Paul and Minneapolis and relax at Cathedral Hill. Katy serves the best breakfast I've ever had in a B & B - the granola is to-die-for. I was concerned that it said parking wasn't available, but there's plenty of on-street parking. It wasn't a problem. Our weekend was wonderful!
My family and I got ready for my wedding at this bed and breakfast. The master's suit was excellent for this occasion. The B&B is centrally located, beautiful and comfortable.
Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, the Cathedral Hill B&B offers a relaxing home-like settling with easy access to shopping on Grand Avenue or theatre/music downtown.
This B&B is located in a spectacular portion of St. Paul and is a very wonderful place to stay! Bill and Katy are very welcoming and knowledgeable of the area. The rooms are beautifully furnished and have a warm feel to them. We will surely be staying with Bill and Katy again.
This is the best (out of dozens) B&B I have encountered. I highly recommend it. The rooms are very comfortable and the breakfasts are sumptious. The house is exquisite. The proximity to downtown St. Paul is an advantage. Try it!
Great breakfast and great hosts, too.

And so, all good things must come to an end. I woke up this morning knowing it would be a bittersweet day that would be over all too quickly. But even with the long trek home and the awaiting Hurricane Matthew damage weighing on my mind, the end of the Tour hit me like wave of cheer and accomplishment, followed by a hollow, lost undertow. What am I supposed to do now that my legs aren't spinning endlessly round and round in a kind of exhausting zen; now that I'm not eating delicious, wholesome meals prepared by the Wandering Forks; now that I'm not meeting kind, inspiring people every day and being supported by a wonderful crew? The prospect of waking up tomorrow morning and having to make more of a choice than which spandex to put on seemed a bit overwhelming—And nobody back home was even going to get what I meant when I say my butt hurts. (I'll just have to suffer in lone silence…) But inevitably, at some point, the thought crosses your mind, "Why can't I always have this much of a purpose? Why can't every week be this fun?"
And that's when you must recognize that that hollow, lost feeling that was tugging at you after accomplishing such a feat, is the call and the inspiration to take pieces of the Tour home with you and incorporate them back into your everyday life. (Maybe you can't have THAT much fun while working so hard in one week, but you can get pretty close.) It could be anything from small to large… Be kind. Help others. Laugh too much. Eat good food. Exercise your body and your mind. Share your passion. Spend some time with trees. Smile a lot. Be part of a team. Enjoy the wind in your hair. Remember that with every uphill, there is a downhill. Remember that you can accomplish whatever you set your mind to, and the world is a little bit better for all of the hard work you have put in.
The last day was a beautiful one. Our fearless Tour leader, Paul, took us on a 7 mile loop around Charlotte, through the beautiful old trees on Queens Road, ending at Latta Park where the Professor Ellwood Pricklethorn (P.E.P.) put on one last stunning performance, to a number of old and young awestruck faces. Local organizations and tree companies had tents and tables set up on the green grass to celebrate "Oaktoberfest." The weather was perfect as Eric (the TREE Fund president) took the microphone and began recognizing outstanding riders and teams who helped us reach a grand total of $367,545 raised for the TREE Fund. (You can keep donating to these folks 'til December!) It is exciting to know that every last penny will go to tree research and education, and help the TREE Fund to grow into its future endeavors. After the big check presentation, we planted a Swamp White Oak in the center of Latta Park and blessed it with the usual chanting, singing, wiggling fingers, and swaying from side to side that I've come to expect from these spandex-clad arborists. Being a brand new rider this year, I could tell that I had come a long way in just one week judging by the fact that I wasn't afraid to join in and not feel the slightest bit embarrassed by our uniquely vibrant ritual. This was the 17th tree we had planted along the tour, and the 5th P.E.P. program done. Add that to the 610 (ish) miles we rode, supported by wonderful stops along the way, and the tour has impacted so many lives.
From the incredibly challenging first day, the "lumpy and breezy" road to the appropriately named Mt. Airy, to a night on the town in Greensboro. From the JC Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh, to the arborist-style putting competition in Southern Pines. And from the impressive Steeplechase Museum in Camden, back to Charlotte with lunch Andrew Jackson State Park along the way. It feels like we traveled the world over in some ways, and it feels like I rode with friends I've known for ages. One thing is for sure-it was a ride that helped me grow as a person, with people I will never forget.

...on a summer wheel that has not stopped since June. Vacations, projects, design business, family and friend visiting, summer camps and a studio/office redo has made for a pretty lively and fast paced summer around here. And then there's that list of what didn't get done including a much needed web site revamp. Updates on what did happen coming soon...that is if I can find a wide ruled spiral bound 70 page school notebook without perfs and a plastic pocket folder with pockets and prongs.

I'll see your 70 page non-perforated notebook and raise you four three-subject, wide ruled, non-perforated notebooks and one 1 1/2 inch blue binder. Ah, the joys of back to school. Just think, maybe then you'll have some time to get things done. Naaaahhh.

On 23 October 2014 the Advocate General (AG) opined that the UK's group relief rules, as amended post-Marks and Spencer, do not contravene EU law.
Following the European Court of Justice's (ECJ's) decision in Marks and Spencer, the UK group relief rules were amended so that relief could be given in the UK for losses of EEA subsidiaries. However, the European Commission has long argued that the UK has not properly implemented the ECJ's decision and in April 2013 the Commission brought an action against the UK before the ECJ.
In particular, the Commission argues that the UK legislative changes have not gone far enough as:
- the rules look at the position (as to whether non-UK losses can be used in the future in their "home" country) at the end of the tax year in which the losses are suffered, making group relief impossible to obtain in practice
- the rules had effect only from 2006.
The AG, although accepting that the UK rules were more restrictive for non-UK subsidiaries than for UK subsidiaries, opined that such restriction is justified. She went further, opining that the UK might even be justified in disallowing non-UK losses completely.
It remains to be seen whether, and to what extent, the ECJ will follow the AG's opinion.

Uncovered BP Document From March Brags Of Gulf Of Mexico Growth, Cheap Production Costs
A BP presentation from March, uncovered by ProPublica, brags of successful exploration in the Gulf of Mexico and declining production costs.
Obviously things look a lot different now. No one knows what will happen to deepwater drilling -- in which BP is the global leader -- or Gulf of Mexico drilling -- BP's key growth sector. (Although it looks like Gulf drilling will come back quickly.)
As for charts showing declining production costs, these claims look dubious after revelations of cut corners on rig design.

Check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, course registration deadlines, and college degree program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Bloomsburg University.
Research demonstrates that college freshman taking a full courseload go on to complete their degrees at a much higher rate than those students who study part-time. When choosing a major, plan ahead and be sure that you are picking courses that will meet transfer requirements of other colleges and universities later on. Further, by choosing your major early, you may be able to take some required core classes in a community college, saving both time and tuition fees.
Look at all the schools in your state first, as in-state tuition may be lower for state residents. The course catalog will outline which classes are required for a particular major, and what minimum GPA you'll need to maintain your class standing. Please contact the academic advising staff at the school you are interested in applying to about their specific guidelines.

My friends and I attended the Sex and the City movie premier for the Ladies Movie Night. Everybody was so nice and helpful. Great, positive atmosphere! I loved how upbeat and fun the entire evening was. We went for the birthdays of two people in my group. In most situations a fundraiser is not the way you want to spend your 40th, but this evening was a blast! Thank you to all the volunteers! We will definitely be back! :)
My friend introduced me to The Seany Foundation. Their mission really spoke to me as everyone on the team is passionate about making a difference in the lives of children afflicted with childhood cancer. Their events are very unique and raise a lot of money for this worthy cause.
I found out about the foundation from a friend. What I really enjoyed about the foundation is that they're making a big impact with a small team, and everyone involved is helping with passion. They started for a good reason and the goals remain the reason why the foundation operates.
I recently attended the early screening of the new Harry Potter movie. The Seany Foundation created a fun atmosphere. Everyone was very friendly. I would encourage others to attend their events.
I have only recently become familiar with the Seany Foundation, but have been very impressed with what I have learned about it. I believe tht any organization that helps Cancer patients is a worthy organization.
great organization that gives back and has a variety of fun events and ways you can give to the cause. the team is fun and outgoing and they seek to provide a positive influence on the community and others who are fighting ewing sarcoma
This Foundation Is amazing. The devotion to fighting childhood Sarcoma knows no bounds. In addition to trying to fund a research chair, they are constantly sdding to cancer care at Children's Hospital in San Diego. God bless tghese wonderful people.
Because there is passion and inspiration they are set apart. Add in the mix of love of life and tremendous imagination and you have the Seany Foundation. From tremendous pain comes incredible effort to make a difference in the world where childhood cancer is eclipsed by other causes. What is more precious than our children? God Bless the Seany Foundation and its founder Mitch Robins, his wife and family. It can restore faith in humanity to see LOVE IN ACTION. THEY ARE LOVE IN ACTION! Sean is proud, watching from Heaven.

Never before had Emman expirienced the heavy thud in his chest jolting through his body. Perhaps this was what knowing the person you're guarding felt like. No matter where his mind wandered he always found it locking back onto Joyful and what he could do to help her next. Probably because he spent all of his time tailing the small girl.
As he stalked her throughout his day, his questions and curiosity grew. Where did she live that she was forced to beg at the feet of others? How did her brown eyes come to get such purple bags under them? Was the child hers?
Strangely, he hoped the child was not hers. Hoping that she never had to go through the infamous pain of having a child. The actual birth, and the process of creating and carrying the child. At the sudden turn of the girl, Emman snapped to attention. Lately the girl had been weaving her way down streets. Now a sudden turn had taken them into a rich neighborhood. A very rich neighborhood.
A house at the end of the street seemed to be the center of her attention. Although the girl walked with familiarty, her eyes darted around anxiously. Emman's curiosity heightened as he followed her passed the coded gates of the house. Silently Joyful moved along the side of the house, a small garage in sight.
Soon the girl and baby made it into the small garage, and closed the door behind them. Once again a light blinded Emman after the darkness of night. Something he would need to grow used to.
A sharp shudder in the wall startled Emman. Another girl seemed to have materialized out of the shadows. Her eyes wide and questioning.
"You're shift is almost here! Give me Manny and I will take care of him." A sweet hispanic accent tainted the young woman's voice. Only a nod was offered in return from joyful, as she handed the child over, and as quickly as she had returned to the garage, left.
A frown etched onto his lips, Emman tailed her with even more worry. So far she had worked none stop for the day. Now she was once again on the move. This time she marched into the house, leading Emman through corridors. At a time Emman woshed for he to know his presence, yet he snuffed the thought quickly. It was benine to reveal yourself to a person. Expecially in a fragile situation like this.
Soon they had found themselves in a busy kitchen. At least five other women busy at work cooking and baking. A tall round woman lead the bunch, hissing orders.
"The celebration is tomorrow! We have had a week now finish within the next two hours! Ah there you are. Help Wynn with the frosting." The woman directed Joyful. The way she spoke to the girls sparked a small flame of anger in Emman. Yet he also heard the love behind the harsh words.
Like a sheep, Joyful obeyed. Finding herself mixing sugar and cream alongside a girl with fair hair. Emman bit his lip. He had learned what to do when he was very young. Lending his strength is what his father had called it.
'Hold your hands over their head.' His fathers voice ran through his head. 'And imagine doing the same action they are doing. Then breathe.' Emman drew in a deep breath and placed his hands over Joyfuls hair.
It might have been his imagination, but Emman swore he saw her stir faster after his exercise.

Loose hanging skin tone, on a extremely fit older female athlete
Patient : I am in my fifties, small framed, 110 lb, and very fit and very athletic. I work out 6 days wk. I exercise doing Yoga and Palates, aerobics and pop physique. I run Marathons and long distance (8-10 miles) per day. Always watch my diet. The problem is that in spite of all this exercise, my skin just hangs loosely off my frame and body, everywhere - arms, legs, neck, chest. Just drooping everywhere. As if there's a shrinking person inside my own body. I'm understandably very upset by this, can you help me?

Will Cleavage Help Sell The iPhone?
Now that women are just as obsessed with the latest gadgets as their counterparts, is it really necessary to have Playboy model look-alikes drooling over products in ad campaigns?
With the iPhone's release quickly approaching, it will be interesting to see what marketing schemes are used to increase its visibility so to speak. We've already seen the official Apple iPhone commercial but will we be seeing any images like this one I created (yes, that's right people it's FAKE) in magazines such as Stuff and FHM? Thanks to the techie gals over at Shiny Shiny for bringing up the topic of the ins and outs of using sex to sell gadgets.

4 questions to ask yourself
I'm not who I was when I began this year. I'm someone else. A newer, fresher, more refined version of the person who began the year.
I hope this happens every year. Because I don't want to stand still. I don't want to be who I always was. I want to evolve and grow and heal and be.
That doesn't mean that the old me wasn't good enough. She was. For that time and those moments. She was the best she could probably be.
But next year requires more of me. It requires me to step into a new consciousness and a new space. I'm ready. And I'm ready to invite you in too.
Next year is going to feel different. We've come to the end of a major cycle and we're about to begin the next one.
This year was about a lot of endings or things coming to a conclusion or a head. Some of the endings happened through choice and others were forced upon us.
But they've happened. Now we move on. Now we flow with what is.
So to help us to flow with, I've got 4 questions for you.
01. What sucked about this year?
02. What surprised you about this year?
03. What will you leave behind?
04. What will you take with you?
You may like to respond quickly and automatically with whatever comes up first. Or you might like to journal these 4 questions and go a bit deeper. Either is fine. But I do invite you to consider them.
01. What sucked about this year?
A dear family member went through cancer treatment this year. It was tough, but ultimately successful. It also had an unintended consequence. It brought us all closer together as a family and it helped all of us to reflect on our mortality. The gold emerges from the mud.
02. What surprised me about this year?
I really wasn't sure what would happen with my work this year. My commitment at the beginning of the year was to see where the year led me. I've always wanted to steer my work life (and let's be honest, my entire life) in a fixed direction of my own choosing. This year, I let that go. I opened up to being led. Not surprisingly, I was led me to the first stage of doing my true, soul work, and I am truly grateful.
03. What will I leave behind?
I have a long history with self-doubt, resentment, control and lack of true self-love. I leave all of that behind because I no longer need it. I don't need to be small anymore. I just need to be.
04. What will I take with me?
I take a very clear intention into 2017. I commit to being present and aware and self-nurturing. I will bring that to every moment and every relationship. And I will be open to what comes.
What about you? How will you answer these 4 questions? What sucked and what was a surprising about this year? What will you leave behind and what will you take with you?

Seven Quick Takes Creed Style
Staying with MJDMom, we were nonplussed to learn that they have neither cable tv, nor wireless internet. So, I'm blogging Creed style, in a Word document.
1. Georgia: four songs come to mind.
Devil Went Down to Georgia
The Night that the Lights Went Out in Georgia
Georgia on My Mind
And my favorite, Midnight Train to Georgia.
Who has two thumbs and saw Phil Mickelson on the putting green at Augusta National yesterday? And again at the first hole? Yup, that was me. Rocking my visor at the Masters.
2. The Hunger Games the Movie: I saw it last weekend in STL. It's dark, violent, has a mercy killing, but overall less scary than the movie. I'd much rather spend two hours with the Muppets than with Katniss and the gang anyday.
3. The Chef and I are watching North and South. Not North and South, the Civil War miniseries, but North and South the BBC Production of Elizabeth Gaskell's novel of the same name. It's about industrial northern England and southern gentrified England. It's so nice to see Bates on screen again.
4. Susan FINALLY finished Anne of Green Gables Part 3, aka Anne of the Island and Anne Shirley FINALLY accepted Gilbert Blythe's proposal. So Susan is free to read a book of her own choosing and she is choosing …. wait for it…
Anne of Green Gables Part 4, aka Anne of Windy Poplars. My plan worked! She is hooked! Huzzah!
5. I overheard something interesting during Cousin Frenzy today. When my kids play "Cops and Robbers," MJDMom's kids are playing "Criminals and Lawmen."
Click on the link below to see a commercial for the new series, Downton Arby's.
Happy Easter!

The Remains of the Yorkshire Days! South and East!
Part two
East Riding
Also known as the Wolds, East Riding is the most hospitable area of Yorkshire. It's full of little historic towns (market villages, really.) The undulating landscape makes for picturesque photography, and Bridlington Bay sports Victorian homes, mixed with the charming cottages of local fisherman. More than a few towns, such as Beverley and Hull boast fascinating history along with real esthetic character.
Beverley is situated right in the mid-section of this portion of Yorkshire and its history dates from as far back as the eighth century. John, the Bishop of York had used this old town as a retreat before being canonized or given his title. Much like York, it is a medieval town with Georgian buildings interspersed, making it an attractive sanctuary.
The dominant building is Beverley Minster which gives the town a magnificent skyline. It was built in part, by the King of Wessex in 937 and its magnificence is only outdone by Fountains Abbey and equaled by York Minster. Its Gothic architecture is exemplary and stunning. The nave itself dates back to the 1300s, along with sixteenth century choir stalls with sixty-eight misericords. On the north side of the alter is the well-crafted fourteenth century tomb of Lady Idoine Percy- referred to as the Percy tomb. (She died in 1365.) You'll also see the Fridstol (Peace Chair) which dates most likely from 924-939 during the reign of King Athelstan of Wessex. People allowed to sit on the Fridstol were granted thirty days sanctuary.
In the adjoining corridor, St. Mary's Church, numerous stone carvings from the medieval period are housed- the largest collection in Britain. The most famous is sculpted on the doorway of St. Michael's Chapel of a rabbit, much like the one in Lewis Carrol's Alice in Wonderland.
A short distance south of Beverley, outside Cottingham, Skidby Mill is worth a quick look to get an idea of the cultural life of East Riding. It is officially "The Museum of East Riding Rural Life" and the actual grain mill has been in existence, running continuously for two hundred years. The Wolds were by all rights and purposes the sole source of wholemeal flour for Yorkshire with over two hundred windmills throughout the county. By 1900, most had fallen into terrible disrepair and Skidby is the only one remaining having been built in 1821!
Kingston-upon-Hull is only a little further south of there, right at the mouth of the Humber inlet. It is definitely a thriving fishing port but also a marvel of medieval restoration. The Princes' Dock is an inspirational beauty and retained, cobbled, winding streets combined with red brick houses here and there are absolutely charming.
If you visit the museums- Maritime Museum, Streetlife Transport Museum and Hands on History- you may wind up an expert on the region but the William Wilberforce House on High Street should not be missed. Built circa 1660, it is now a museum dedicated to William's memory. Its exhibits are varied but the history of the Wilberforce family will capture your imagination.
William Wilberforce (1758-1833) became one of the first abolitionists in England after the Pitt (William Pitt, the younger, of course!) administration encouraged his speeches starting in 1784 with a public address he gave in York. He had been educated at Cambridge but was a natural orator and he led an illustrious and scrupulous campaign. This, of course, made veritable enemies for him by the obvious opposition- slave importers. His bill to abolish the slave trade became law in 1807.
Maister House is a quick look-see at 160 High Street. It is an archetype of a merchant's residence which was restored in 1743 and is the only true "surviving" example. It is let as offices and looks rather sedate but has a marvelous staircase in the interior.
East of Hull (as it is called today), at Hedon, Old Hall is worth a short visit but prior arrangements must be made. This Grade II listed house on 2-4 Fletchergate was erected in 1620 by Sir John Waterland. It is a recent restoration starting from the year 2000 and renovations may still be ongoing. Please contact Mr. George Head at 01482 899472
Burton Constable Hall, still inhabited by the Constable family, is northeast (14 miles) of Beverly and situated in Skirlaugh surrounded by beautifully landscaped parkland. 'Capability' Brown was the landscape architect of the three hundred acres, of course. The mansion itself was built in 1570 by the Constable family who had been leading landowners from the thirteenth century. The Elizabethan architecture, which incorporates mullioned and corbelled windows became eclectic through the myriad of additions throughout three centuries, creating Georgian and Victorian interiors.
It houses a marvelous collection of Chippendale Furniture, family portraits from the sixteenth century, as well as prints, textiles and drawings which belong to Leeds City Art Galleries.
Now it will be necessary to go to the farthest north regions of East Riding toward the coast to get to Burton Agnes Hall. Take the A165 to Bridlington, then over to Driffield on the A614.
Burton Agnes is an emulative late-Elizabethan mansion- along with two prime semi-circular towers festooned with mullioned windows, topped with parapets. It is also still inhabited by descendants of the Henry Griffith family who built it between 1598- 1610. It's features are an alabaster chimney (a cameo shot of it is in the South and East Yorkshire album), an impressively carved oak staircase and the library contains paintings of impressionists such as Derain, Renoir and Augustus John. Extensive landscaped and woodland gardens abound with other delightful surprises. T- 01262 490324
Heading back toward Bridlington and toward Flamborough Head, Sewerby Hall is sitting in prime view overlooking Bridlington Bay in fifty acres of parkland and it dates back to 1715. This Georgian gem is the Museum of East Yorkshire and contains nearly everything covering history, archeology, art and an Amy Johnson Room full of her memorabilia. (Amy Johnson is the most famous female aviator in England and was the first!) Surrounding the house is a nineteenth century Orangery, a walled Old English and Rose gardens, a children's zoo, golf, putting and clifftop walks. T- 01262 677874
Before you head west for Sledmere House, if you are into wild life in natural habitats, you'll want to see Bempton at Flamborough Head. Bempton is a steep slope of chalk cliffs where a seabird breeding colony is thriving. May, June and July are the best months for checking it out, of course. You'll see many different species, including puffins. Take binoculars with you and my suggestion is not to disturb the environment and be as unobtrusive as you can.
Sledmere House is ten miles west of Burton Agnes, off the A166. It's been at this location, in various forms, since medieval times, but the present manor house was designed and built by Sir Christopher Sykes the Second Baronet of Sledmere. In his journal which was dated June 17th 1751 he wrote ( I ) "laid the first stone of the new house at Sledmere". It is now the home of the Eighth Baronet, Sir Tatton Sykes.
Joseph Rose, the most famous plasterer of his day executed the interior decorations of the Drawing Room and various others on the first floor, which are most magnificent. The Turkish room on the ground floor was designed by Armenian artist David Ohanessian and is absolutely exquisite. The interior of the library is second in elaboration only to Castle Howard. Some photos can be seen in my album but you can see more by visiting their web site at:
The last house on my list is no longer a residence but has been turned into one of the most beautiful gardens in Yorkshire. Just off the A1079 at the York-Hull Rd junction in Pocklington, Burnby Hall boasts a beautiful outside botanical paradise. The house has been turned into the Stewart Collection Museum and has outdoor concerts all summer long. This tour will be a wonderful finis to your Yorkshire tour. www.burnbyhallgardens.com e-mail email@example.com
Lots of hugs and kisses from The Castle Lady!

PALO ALTO (KCBS)— Palo Alto police have unveiled a new state-of-the-art video-camera system designed to capture what's going on from all sides of the patrol car and even includes audio capabilities.
While video cameras in patrol cars are nothing new, Palo Alto police said this system from a company called WatchGuard, uses five cameras.
"One forward facing, two that go off to the side and one that faces rear-ward out the back window," Palo Alto Police Lieutenant Zack Perron said.

Newcastle, Thomas Pelham-Holles, 1st duke of
Created a duke in 1715, Newcastle rose quickly to high office, becoming lord chamberlain in 1717 and secretary of state for the southern department in 1724. He was very much subordinate to fellow-secretary Townshend, but his prominence increased when Walpole edged Townshend out in 1730, though Walpole was to direct policy. As Walpole's grip on power loosened, Newcastle's loyalty loosened with it, and he successfully advocated war with Spain despite Walpole's misgivings. Walpole's fall in 1742 led to Carteret being promoted secretary for the northern department and he quickly won favour with George II. Newcastle and his brother Henry Pelham used parliamentary support to overwhelm Carteret's purely personal power and forced George II to dismiss him in 1744. In 1746 the Pelhams won control over the government, after resigning and obliging the king to invite them back.
Newcastle and Pelham, together with Newcastle's lifelong friend Hardwicke, ran the government 1746–54 upon a 'broad-bottomed' principle, including as many political factions as possible within it. In this they were successful, both brothers being masters of patronage and electoral strategy, but it made for a lacklustre administration. Though Henry Pelham as 1st lord of the Treasury quickly became the 'prime' minister, Newcastle retained very wide powers over foreign affairs and patronage, particularly in the Church of England. Newcastle showed his limitations very clearly during the War of the Austrian Succession; his grasp of military matters was poor, and his desire to conduct the war through subsidies to potentially friendly countries was expensive and unsuccessful.
The death of Henry Pelham in 1754 dealt Newcastle a heavy blow and the previously peaceful political situation immediately dissolved into bitter rivalry. Newcastle took the post of 1st lord, but could not bring himself to give a minister in the Commons real power and Pitt and Henry Fox subjected the government to heavy attack. War with France commenced to a string of military disasters which led Newcastle to resign in 1756. In an astonishingly short time, however, he returned as 1st lord in one of the most successful modern ministries, the Pitt–Newcastle coalition, 1757–61. Pitt brilliantly directed the war effort whilst Newcastle dealt with patronage and financial matters. The accession of George III in 1760 changed the political situation dramatically, and Newcastle soon followed Pitt out of office as the Seven Years War drew to a close.
The move to opposition was not easy for Newcastle. He was the link between the old Whigs of the Walpole era and the new Whigs guided by Rockingham, but although Newcastle served as lord privy seal in the Rockingham government 1765–6, he was increasingly marginalized. Throughout his career, Newcastle was most effective as deputy to a man of greater ability, be this Walpole, Pelham, or Pitt.

Newcastle, Thomas Pelham-Holles, duke of
Thomas Pelham-Holles Newcastle, duke of, 1693–1768, English politician, brother of Henry Pelham. He inherited (1711) the estates of his uncle, John Holles, duke of Newcastle, adopted his name, and received (1715) his title. In 1724 he became secretary of state under Sir Robert Walpole, and he retained that position after Walpole's fall and through his brother's long ministry (1743–54). In 1754 he succeeded his brother as first lord of the treasury, or prime minister. His weak policy in the Seven Years War led to his resignation in 1756, but the next year he returned to power as nominal head of a coalition ministry with William Pitt, later 1st earl of Chatham. Forced (1762) out of office by George III's favorite, Lord Bute, he later served (1765) as lord privy seal under the marquess of Rockingham. Newcastle was ineffective and irresolute in his conduct of public affairs, but he wielded immense political influence through his clever use of patronage, helping to provide parliamentary majorities for Walpole, Pelham, and Pitt.

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Compete, a site that tracks traffic metrics and analyzes Internet trends, has a couple of new polls out on how consumers use online banking and what they think of it.
These are some interesting results — but, like Bankrate's recent survey, it's not entirely clear if this is discussing online banking from brick and mortar banks or online-only banks.
For example, easily more than 1% of those surveyed (probably) have opened a new account at an online-only bank. But at their brick and mortar's online site, they may not have.
How do these survey results compare to your online banking habits? Let us know in a comment below.
Bankrate recently announced the results of its 2008 Checking Study and found some interesting results:
The 22 checking accounts we surveyed at 18 online institutions show that they can be somewhat pricey, especially if you're intent on earning interest, but at least they pay decent interest. You may find that abiding by a couple of minor stipulations will eliminate fees.
Honestly, I'm not sure Bankrate did a great job of really looking at online banks — and it's a little confusing just exactly who they surveyed.
The text above says "online institutions" — implying online banks — but their methodology says they "surveyed one interest checking account and one noninterest checking account at each of the largest banks and thrifts in each of 25 large markets."
That seems to imply they are looking at the online versions of brick and mortar banks, but I'm not totally sure.
If you're looking to open an online checking account, the best is ING's Electric Orange.
When you open an account with at least $250, you'll get an automatic $25 deposited as a bonus.
It's got no fees, no minimums and is super-easy to use.
Personal finance is about 95 percent mental and 5 percent physical. Once you've put the right system into place, you just have to block out all the noise and plow ahead.
So as much as you may have been led to believe otherwise, the biggest thing blocking your success is you.
You are your biggest investment — and sometimes you make the wrong decisions. That's simply human nature.
Bankrate has a great story about 7 'psycho' money traps and how to beat them, highlighting how we cause ourselves problems.
Their seven mental money traps:
1. The lure of 'free'
2. The 'anchor-price' persuasion
3. The instant-gratification attraction
4. The dollars-to-donuts decoy
5. The separate-buckets blunder
6. The 'sacred-fund' slip-up
7. The lost-money fallacy
These are all great examples of how we naturally make poor financial decisions. You're not the only person who's ever made these mistakes. But you can easily overcome them.
If you want to ensure that you aren't blocking your own financial success, automate the processes.
Want to save for a new car? Set it and forget it.
Leave your paycheck sitting around instead of cashing it? Get direct deposit.
Working hard to time the stock market? Automate your investments and you'll benefit from dollar-cost averaging.
When you take the 5 percent action required, you've set yourself up for financial success. Turn around your bad habits and start to feel comfortable with your decisions.
Online banking and the Internet can do a lot to improve your money management shortcomings, but they can't do it all.
No one's going to stop you from buying that videogame you don't really need.
No one's going to stop you from living beyond your means (except maybe the bank, and you don't want to go there).
No one's going to stop you from being lazy and putting off the process to your financial freedom.
You've got to be the one who steps in and makes smart decisions. The tools are all there, but you need to make it happen.
After their system problems last week, HSBC Direct says they're back up and running.
Dear JASON,
As a follow-up to my email last week, I am pleased to let you know that our systems have now returned to normal operating conditions. As always, we continue to monitor all systems closely and will let you know if there is any change in status. I can confirm that all customer information, data and funds were secure at all times.
In the event that you were charged fees as a direct result of our system issues please know that these will be refunded. If any deposits were delayed you will receive interest from the date they were originally deposited.
Should you have other questions about your HSBC Direct account please submit your question through "BankMail" when you are logged into your account, or contact our Customer Service team at 1-888-404-4050.
Providing consistent world class service levels is our priority and is something that we failed to do last week. We fully appreciate how important it is for you to have reliable access to your online accounts and we are committed to providing this. Again I apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced.
Thank you again for your support and for saving with HSBC Direct.
Kevin Martin
Executive Vice President,
Head of HSBC Direct U.S.
The Consumerist has a bit more about how much the outages affected customers, especially people who were waiting for their direct deposited paychecks to clear.
The widespread problem is limiting access to HSBCDirect accounts, and at least 8,000 Catholic Health System employees up in Buffalo are still waiting for their direct deposit payments to materialize.
The bank is keeping select upstate branches open late so Catholic Health System employees can come in and trade their pay stubs for cash. As for affected HSBCDirect customers, the bank promises to "return full–system functionality to you as soon as possible."
Glad to hear everything is working right again. You're not having any problems with HSBC, are you?
We've talked a lot about how convenient online banking is, but there's also a very green aspect to it, too. Being green isn't my top priority, but it's definitely an added bonus when it comes along with convenience.
While it may or may not actually save 17 million trees, Bank of America is pushing a "Think Green, Bank Green" message to get its customers into online banking.
Online Statements Getting your monthly statements online keeps you organized and cuts clutter
Bill Pay Scheduling bill payments online saves you time, postage, potential late fees, and more.
eBills Paying bills online? Why not go for ultimate convenience and receives them online, too.
According to the promo, BofA customers using the three steps have saved a total of 8,174 tons of paper.
Like I said, going green isn't the reason I would be banking online, but it's a very compelling reason for certain folks.
It's a smart move by Bank of America to shape their message this way, especially if their customers are hesitant to bank online.
Customers are increasingly satisfied with their online banks, according to a new survey from ForeSee Results (says the AP).
The measurement comes from the University of Michigan's American Customer Satisfaction Index, which gave online banking an 82 out of 100, up from 73 in 2003.
The reading of 82 was higher than customers gave banks overall — 78 in 2007 — suggesting they are more pleased with banks' online operations than with branches and call centers. The score is also strong compared to other arenas: Online retailers, the highest-scoring category measured by the ACSI, recently scored 83.
Satisfaction is up partly because people are more comfortable banking online than they used to be, said ForeSee Results president and CEO Larry Freed. Other big reasons he cited include efforts by banks to boost security, allow more types of transactions, and ease navigation.
For the most part, I'm content with the online banks that I use. But there's still a lot they could do better.
First, get rid of ridiculous log in methods. HSBC is the worst when it comes to this, since you have to use their ridiculous virtual keyboard that constantly gives me errors.
Let me add as many external accounts as I want. E-Loan says you can only have one external account "for security," but that's a load of bull. I should be able to take my money wherever I want to go, whenever I want to go.
Speed up transfers. There's no reason it should take so long for my money to get from one account to another. Yes, there are some ACH issues surrounding this, but once that's done, my money should be where I want it.
What would make you more satisfied with your online bank? Leave a comment below.
ING Direct, probably the best known online bank, had "a record number of new savers, deposits and home mortgage loans" in 2007, according to an email from CEO Arkadi Kuhlmann sent to its customers.
Dear Jason,
I am happy to report that ING DIRECT's 2007 financial results are complete. Your confidence in us helped us deliver a record number of new savers, deposits and home mortgage loans. Further, we acquired ShareBuilder so we could offer you a low cost way to invest in stocks and ETFs. I'm proud of our first 7 years, but there's work to be done.
Global financial markets ended 2007 with many challenges ahead. While ING DIRECT avoided the sub-prime mortgage problem, we understand that this housing crisis threatens the well-being of countless families and, in the end, it will be seen as a major failing of the mortgage industry and its regulators.
The fact that ING DIRECT was not adversely affected is a testament to our operating philosophy that, as Americans, we should only buy houses we can afford. That way we can keep them for years to come. We believe a mortgage is a contract that both parties should execute in good faith and expect to see through to its conclusion. We will not waver from our sworn promise to provide you with great value, service and convenience.
Thank you for your continued trust in us. Stay tuned in 2008 for new ideas we'll offer to help you save your money.
Arkadi Kuhlmann
The CEO of Saving
While ING hasn't been delivering the leading interest rates on its online savings account for some time, they have continued to innovate with new products like the Electric Orange checking account and business online savings account.
2007 also saw ING acquire NetBank — even if there were some problems during the transfer.
Kuhlmann has been an outspoken advocate of understanding you financial situation (he's not the only one) and has argued that, even though ING only offers adjustable rate mortgages, they ARE right for some people.
I don't keep any money with them anymore — there are too many better paying options — but I know that some people do because of the ease of use and dedication to the company. I wouldn't do it, but more power to them.
E-Loan, where I keep an online savings account, is giving away $5 Starbucks gift cards for filling out an online banking survey.
Dear Valued Customer -
We are evaluating and enhancing our online banking website and would like your opinion on what bank products and features are important to you.
You will receive a $5 Starbucks Card to thank you for your participation in this short survey.
In accordance with our privacy policy, we will not sell or share the information you provide with third party marketers.
Thanks for helping us.
Virginia Sullivan
SVP, Internet Banking
Click here to access this survey:
I did it — hopefully my gift card will come in less than the advertised 4 weeks.
Give it a shot. You don't seem to have to be an E-Loan account holder to do it.
There is one problem, however: what can you get at Starbucks for only $5?
Open thread here: what did you do before online banking?
This might sound like a silly question, but for as long as I've been managing my money, I've been banking online. I honestly don't know life without it.
But you might.
How did you manage your money before you had access to the Internet? Did you use software like Quicken, or keep a hand budget?
How about balancing your checkbook? (I've never done it before.)
Did you (do you) keep all your receipts? I just check my charges online, since I pretty much only use a debit card.
Let us know: what did you do before online banking?
You know you have to save money. You'd like to start investing. You'd like to go on a vacation.
But you don't have the money for it. Each of these scenarios leads you to the question: where did my money go?
This is the fundamental question to beginning your financial responsibility. The first step in simple money management is to spend less than you earn.
Chances are you know how much money you make. But do you know exactly how much money you spend, and where it goes?
Being as detailed as possible in tracking your spending is a huge first step to proper money management.
Here's how I do it.
I keep receipts for nearly every transaction I make, both cash, debit and credit card purchases. When I get home, I put them on my desk to add to my budget notebook, which tracks all my spending.
The most important receipts to ensure that you get are for purchases with tips and gas purchases. You'll find out why in a minute.
I also log onto my checking account online all the time, to double check that my transactions are correct and to find out when my monthly bills have been automatically deducted.
Online banking also helps when I forget to get a receipt or lose it somewhere in the process.
As I said before, certain receipts are more important to keep: gas and purchases with tips. This is because, when you buy things with a debit card, the correct transaction amount does not appear until the payment has cleared.
When you go out to a restaurant and pay (with tip) on your debit card, you'll notice that the pending transaction only deducts the amount for the meal: not the tip. So you can't rely on this number instead of a receipt — at least not if you add the purchase to your budget that day.
On the gas side, funds do not get deducted from debit cards (even those acting as credit cards) automatically. The process normally takes a few days.
So, I always keep my gas receipts to add to my budget that day, so I don't wait for it to appear online and forget about adding it.
In addition to keeping a budget with my monthly spending, I track my expenses online via Yodlee. The number isn't as precise as my hand-written budget, but once you've categorized a few of your transactions, Yodlee does the rest.

The act of lovemaking became sour for a Kano couple last week after an unidentified person poured acid on them during sexual intercourse.
The Nation reports that the sad incident happened at the couple's house in the Gyadi Gyadi /Karkasara area of Kano. The unidentified perpetrator had fled away before neighbours responded to the couple's distress call. The wife, Amina Moses, got hit the most by the acid. She was was admitted in Aminu Kano Specialist Hospital, where she spent some days and was treated while the husband is being treated in an undisclosed hospital.
One of the eyewitnesses who asked not be named said that the closeness of the couple's bed to the window of their apartment made it easy for their assailant to carry out the dastardly act. She said:
PAY ATTENTION: Get all the latest gossips on NAIJ Gossip App
"Amina and her husband called Moses were making love in the evening of the unfortunate day, when they suddenly raised the alarm that someone had poured a liquid substance on them through their window. We rushed into their room only to find them in pains.
''Amina was the one that was badly hit by the liquid substance suspected to be acid. She was treated at the Aminu Kano Specialist Hospital and their assailant has not been apprehended as we speak despite the fact that the matter was reported to the state police command. The closeness of their bed to the window made it easy for their attacker to successfully carry out his mission and escape without being apprehended."
Nawa oh, so person cannot make love in peace in someone's house?

thank u
*thumbs up*
I too am pissed about the naming convention here. I am unable to rename files and the incorrect filename negatively affects the video quality. Bitch, bitch, bitch.
Seth have made 5 production seasons. When it fucks up is in season four. becouse Seth made one seasons while Fox wanted it as two season and made a long brake in the middle of season four. therefor it is 5 prod. ses. and 6 seasons
Listen to drslobb, he's right about this, they have just made two different things about this.. Anyway, naming it season 6 shall we?
okay yaeh it's accually season five, but it's easier to call it season 6 just for th recor, and anyway, if one episode a week is aired, its more than one season, i think, cause if there was 29 (27 eps one double and movie) like all the other torrents, the season would be more than half a year, which seems a bit incorrect, especislly since they where cancled for a while, but what the hell do I know?

NTEL has finally launched in Nigeria with several customer friendly data plans. After months of high hopes ntel 4G/LTE services. Finally, ntel is here with the launched of their first VoLTE service in Nigeria last Friday on 8th April. Ntel is Nigeria's most revolutionary telecommunications company which provides 4G LTE Advanced network that delivers super fast call-connect times, crystal clear Voice over LTE and extraordinarily high internet access speed (up to 230Mbps).
The ntel 4G LTE finally hits Abuja and Lagos, Nigeria and it would take some couple of months before Ntel 4G LTE reaches some other states in Nigeria. The internet access speed is amazing, those who purchased their sim card earlier can testify to it, up to 55.13Mbps on downloads and 24.40Mbps for uploads.
Here's how you can reserve your custom ntel Number
- Go to their official website www.ntel.com.ng/reserve-generate
- Scroll down and click on "choose your own number"
- Next, fill in the important information in the field provided and once your number is ready, you'll be contacted to pick up your personalized number. However, the available pickup states are Abuja, Lagos and Port Harcourt.
List of Ntel data plans, tariff plans and prices, along with compatible smartphones.
- ntel Smartphone starter, offers unlimited data access, unlimited SMS with 30mins voice call which is valid for 3days. This offer goes for just N1,000.
- ntel Standard plan, offers unlimited data access, unlimited SMS with 70mins voice call which is valid for 7days. This offer goes for just N2,400.
- ntel Monthly plan, offers unlimited data access, unlimited SMS with 300mins voice call which is valid for 30days. This offer goes for just N9,000.
Compatible smartphones include TecnoBoom J8, Tecno C5, Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, Konka L5 70S(R1)(R2)(E1), Phantom 5, Infinix Zero 3 and Infinix Note 2 (2GB Ram version). Since the listed smartphones are 4G LTE enabled smartphones, I can assume that their plans will be compatible with every 4G LTE enabled smart phones.
Fair usage policy now attached to their unlimited data access, this is due to the fact that most individuals are likely to use their unlimited data access for commercial purpose.
According to ntel, "customers likely to be affected by this policy are those who generate large volumes of traffic; often have file-sharing software or peer-to-peer/torrent apps on their phones or tablets; and download large-format files such as music, videos and movies consistently". However, it's also noted that any customer who uses above 3GB data daily would be slowed down to 512bps, if done continuously might get disconnected or blocked.
If you have already purchased their sim card kindly share your thoughts about ntel services.
