Howard Hughes' Stealth Buyback
Posted by: Todd Sullivan (IP Logged)
Date: November 16, 2012 08:19AM
You may have notice a whole lot of SEC filings yesterday regarding HHC. Here is what happened.
CIC and BAM exercised their warrants. So, the collectively added 1.5M share of common stock. Now, how did they pay for it?
The Howard Hughes 13D/A (click to open pdf)
Quote:Follow? In order to pay for the exercising of the warrants, they sold warrants representing 2.3M shares of HHC to HHC. That means HHC effectively took 2.3M shares off the market.
Here is the best part….if we do a little math, 2.3M shares divided by the $89M sales price gives us a price of $38/share for the repurchase. They effectively bought back 2.3M shares at 55% of the current market price. JUST FANTASTIC…..
Why would CIC/BAM do this? Well, if they exercised the warrants and sold them they'd only get the difference between $50 and the current price (they also wanted to stay below 10% ownership). So it was a win/win for both sides…..
But for shareholders this is simply wonderful……

HH: A loyal cadre of our struggle
I write what I know: You have not died, for the causes you championed were inherited by us in their entirety… You are gone from us, but the weapon and rucksack that you left, your tools of work, are a part of [our burden]… how can we mourn a comrade, but by holding the fallen gun and continue the combat… [his] life continu[ing] in those who [will] continue [the cause].
– Samora Machel's poem to Josina
The best strategist Swapo ever created is no more. The man fondly known as HH represents a chapter in the history of our country, which cannot be deleted lest the book contain missing pages.
An enigma, a closed book to many people, a Machiavellian at best, the de facto Number Two for long stretches of the struggle for liberation, a tactician of tact, a propagandist of unimaginable proportion, the man with the secretive laughter, HH went to rest on a pillow engraved with the words of freedom.
The late Moses Garoeb called him "most intelligent". Kazenambo ruffled feathers when he called him "a hero" long after he left the movement. The sitting president continues to acknowledge him.
Those in my tribe dubbed him Kavandje, or okasino katuezu ko… (said with African respect) You will think you saw or heard him, but will be unable to quote him or tie him to the event. He knew the system like the palm of his hand and had everyone and everywhere, creating shadows that almost tore the movement asunder upon his departure.
In 1989 HH informed Martti Athisaari that the votes from the North will come and Namibia will be free. Indeed the votes came and the rest was history.
HH was a very loyal cadre of our struggle. A former diplomat from Ghana, a friend of mine, once opined that in Angola Swapo was Hidipo, and Hidipo was Swapo. He diligently served our struggle and his master to the best of his ability. He comes from those who said: justitia omnibus.
HH defied logic. He taught us that one need not be big in stature, or be a grand orator to contribute immensely to a cause. He gave meaning to the old adage that a small package can contain dynamite. HH is the only shortest man I have met who was intelligent, a man who would never make you look stupid, always in his thinking mode.
The political mathematician with a precision of a sewing machine needle went to rest. His soul is at peace, for it was with his Swapo when his name was called.
When our valiant history will be narrated around the warmth of the African fire, his name will pop up without wavering and indignity. When our future self ploughs into the past in quest of stimulation and answers, they shall have no preference but to read HH's name imprinted in the people's hall of eminence.
This man, whose achievements tower above his length, selected us to attend Harvard as part of "promising young Namibians". Even though all of us failed to master the GMAT, that was required of us to take up that challenge, it was a gesture framed into eternity, or when he attempted while at Foreign Affairs before the night of the long knives. (Alfredo Hengari).
He guarded the dumping site of our past, letting others think it was his action. He did this, because sharing in the glow of our victory, should let us also share in the shame of having kept quiet.
Farewell HH, go home Lebeus, for no culture should allow a man to be a shadow of his old self. Only those who tried can be said to have made mistakes.

Scorpio the flagship car of Mahindra is ten year old and Mahindra is celebrating the birthday of Scorpio with a concept "Decade of Domination" . Scorpio was a revolutionary SUV for Indian market which was designed by an Indian Company.
The success of Scorpio crossed Indian border and it is sold globally. Scorpio was revolutionary in many aspects. The product came from the basket of a company which didn't have the technical capabilities to build a SUV. It didn't stop Mahindra to realize their dream.
Scorpio was game changer for Mahindra. Mahindra broke the concept which says that an automaker should develop the car from scratch to final product on their own. Instead of going traditional way, Mahindra innovated new way.
All major systems of scorpio from design, engineering, test validation and material selection were carried by suppliers with inputs from Mahindra on design, performance specification and costing. In five years Scorpio was reality. Scorpio was a revolution for Indian automobile industry and since then Mahindra have not seen back in delivering and raising the standards with new concepts.

(Repeats with no changes to the text)
By Guillermo Parra-Bernal and Tatiana Bautzer
SAO PAULO, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Brazilian financier André Esteves resigned as chief executive and chairman of Grupo BTG Pactual SA late on Sunday after he was jailed as part of a corruption probe rapidly ensnaring Latin America's largest independent investment bank.
Prosecutors are preparing to file charges against the billionaire dealmaker, who they suspect, along with a Brazilian senator, of trying to obstruct a long-running investigation into graft at state-run oil company Petroleo Brasileiro SA, or Petrobras.
Esteves, through his lawyer, has denied the allegations.
In a fresh twist to the near two-year long probe, Brazilian newspapers said police found documents allegedly linking BTG Pactual to the payment of bribes to ruling coalition lawmakers.
It is the first time the bank has been directly implicated in the bribery scandal and the newspapers said prosecutors used the documents to persuade the country's Supreme Court to extend Esteves' detention.
The documents contained information alleging that BTG Pactual paid 45 million reais ($11.7 million) to Eduardo Cunha, speaker of the lower house of Congress, in exchange for the passage of legislation favoring the bank, the newspapers said.
BTG Pactual denied the payments in a statement on Sunday and pledged to cooperate with authorities.
A source familiar with the matter said the revelations and the extension of Esteves' detention convinced him and his business partners that he had to resign.
Esteves still owns 28.8 percent of the bank and his stake includes a so-called golden share which gives him veto rights on any board decisions.
BTG Pactual named two founding partners, Roberto Saloutti and Marcelo Kalim, currently the bank's chief operating officer and chief financial officer, respectively, as co-CEOs.
Persio Arida, who was named acting CEO after Esteves' arrest on Wednesday, is now chairman, with Huw Jenkins, head of the bank's international arm, becoming vice chairman.
BTG Pactual has about 70 partners, including Esteves, who control a combined 80 percent of the bank's capital, according to bank data. The new co-CEOs Kalim and Saloutti, each have about 5.5 percent.
The main partners, a group of seven executives including Kalim, Saloutti and Jenkins with whom Esteves founded the bank in 2008, are considering buying their former leader out, the source said, adding that Esteves' stake is currently valued at 6.05 billion reais.
While Esteves sat in a jail cell in the Bangu VIII prison north of Rio de Janeiro, the bank's main partners gathered at the bank's headquarters in São Paulo's Faria Lima financial district on Sunday to finalize the sale of a 12 percent stake in Rede D'Or São Luiz SA, Brazil's largest hospital chain, to Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC Pte Ltd.
The stake will be sold for almost 2.5 billion reais, a source directly involved in the deal told Reuters. The bank had been negotiating the Rede D'Or deal since August but Esteves' arrest sped up talks, two other sources said.
GIC paid 3.3 billion reais for a 16 percent stake of Rede D'Or in May.
The new deal could help shore up BTG Pactual's balance sheet after Esteves' arrest prompted clients to pull over $1 billion in investments held at the bank's asset management division.
His detention sent the bank's shares and bonds skidding as investors fretted about its ability to thrive in his absence.
Rating agencies Moody's Investors Service and Fitch Ratings warned of a possible rating downgrade.
Heavily dependent on short-term market funding and with about 55 percent of its banking arm's funding due to be refinanced over the next 90 days, BTG Pactual has sought to assure clients that it is operating normally.
BTG Pactual's proprietary investments unit also owns over two dozen companies, some of them in the middle of corporate reorganizations and requiring capital injections, like drugstore chain Brasil Pharma SA and oil drilling rig producer Sete Brasil Participações SA.
Another source with direct knowledge of the bank's strategy said BTG Pactual has stopped offering new loans. Until Friday afternoon, external funding remained available and stable, said the same source.
In an e-mailed letter to clients and trading partners on Friday, Arida said the bank was not a target of the investigation.

Hobart, WA (PressExposure) December 19, 2008 -- Blacksmith Zone has just released a new section of their website that has all of the Blacksmithing Shop. This is part of a new community website that is all about Blacksmithing. Members and non-members can visit this Blacksmithing page on the Blacksmith Zone website for free at: [http://www.blacksmithzone.com].
Here is an excerpt from the new Blacksmith Shop information webpage:
âBlacksmith shops are among the worldâs first factories. It was in the first blacksmithâs shops that industrial production began. Blacksmithing is really more of a re manufacturing process since the initial manufacturing is the production of the metal itself. But it is in the blacksmithâs shop that the raw metal is converted into objects of either functional utility or works of art or often both.
The layout of the basic blacksmith shop is usually very simple. In one corner will be the forge. The forge is the hearth which contains a fire, fed by coal or coke that is used to heat the metal until it reaches a temperature where it becomes soft enough to be hammered into shape. Near the forge will be the coal hopper where the fuel for the fire is stored. The location of the coal hopper is important since the coal has to be stored near enough the fire to allow for easy transfer of the coal from the hopper to the fire as and when more fuel is required. At the same time it should be far enough away to prevent or at least minimize the amount of soot and ash from the hearth reaching the hopper and mixing with the stored coal.â
There is plenty of more information on the new general information Blacksmithing Shop website that can be found by visiting: [http://www.blacksmithzone.com/] . There is also a special going on now that allows members to gain access to free ebooks and other free materials just for signing up as a member of the blacksmith website for free at: [http://www.blacksmithzone.com]. Users should check back often to the Blacksmith general page as more information will be added as the website expands and grows.

Distraught teen made shrine of tea lights to set herself on fire after boyfriend dumps her
A HEARTBROKEN schoolgirl made a shrine of tea lights and set herself on fire just days after she was dumped by her boyfriend, an inquest has heard.
Rebecca Berry killed herself after her boyfriend broke up with her
Rebecca Berry, 15, made the deadly shrine in the bottom of her garden after she told her friends her life "wasn't worth living" following the split with her partner of seven months.
She knelt in the circle of tea lights and then used a flammable liquid to set herself on fire.
The teenager died after inhaling toxic gases released by the liquid, a hearing at Bournemouth Coroners' Court heard.
The coroner did not rule on whether Rebecca's death was suicide, concluding that she couldn't be "absolutely certain" that the schoolgirl knew her actions would result in death.
Rebecca Berry said her life 'wasn't worth living' after the split
I didn't seriously think she was going to do anything even though she had said all this stuff about killing herself before but hadn't actually done anything
Rebecca, a pupil at Queen Elizabeth's School in Wimborne, Dorset, broke up with her boyfriend, who then blocked her from speaking to him on social networking site Facebook.
The teenager, who was adopted when she was less than a year old, then sent him increasingly concerning messages where she threatened to take her own life if they didn't get back together.
In a desperate attempt Rebecca, also known as Rebe, eventually went to his house to salvage the relationship, which ended in tears.
The worried boyfriend, who cannot be named for legal reasons, started speaking to her again but was not able to stop her from the apparent suicide.
She sent him a final message saying: "I just want to say I love you for the last time, so bye."
The boy, who attended the inquest, broke down in tears as he spoke.
He said: "After we broke up she messaged me loads saying she was thinking about hurting herself.
"I blocked her quite a few times from Facebook but then she would say she was going to do something stupid so I unblocked her and tried to talk to her.
"I didn't seriously think she was going to do anything even though she had said all this stuff about killing herself before but hadn't actually done anything."
Rebecca Berry knelt a circle of tea lights and then used a flammable liquid to set herself on fire
Rebecca's adoptive mother only discovered her body when she saw candles flickering in the garden. Paramedics were unable to save her.
Joe Williams, a detective sergeant for Devon and Cornwall Police, said: "Rebe's boyfriend had ended their relationship at school on the Friday, prior to her death on the Monday.
"She was in denial about this and was in tears at school, having to be taken into a classroom by a member of staff.
"On the Sunday before her death she had gone to the boy's address and messaged him telling him to look out of his window. She had walked through a field to get to him.
"Rebe was distressed and his mother had called her mum to come and collect her."
Rebecca's adoptive mother, Gillian Scott-Taylor, spoke of a sometimes fraught home life where the teenager would compete for attention with her brother Joe, who was also adopted at a young age.
Mrs Scott-Taylor also paid tribute to "an incredibly funny, intelligent and determined individual".
She told the inquest: "She had struggled throughout her adolescence with questions about he
"It still seems completely surreal to us that day-to-day life goes on without our daughter in it. She will be forever missed."
Coroner Mr Payne recorded a narrative verdict adding: "She died as a result of self immolation but there is doubt as to whether she intended her actions to result in her death.
"It is sad for anyone to die in this manner, let alone a young girl with so much ahead of her.
"I really don't think at the end of the day that she had thought this through."

Is it possible to charge less for webcam sex services, yet make more money? Although these statements may seem at odds, it can be done with the proper marketing strategy. Let me explain.
Let's say you're a webcam model who performs with a partner (male or female). Working as a team, you can offer unique webcam shows in under serviced niches. I remember being on Chaturbate one evening and watching a woman giving her husband a very sexy massage. This couple re-created the whole massage parlor look and feel, and gave a 30 minute performance which keep hundreds entertained and looking forward to the ultimate happy ending. The man was lying on his stomach for the first 10 minutes, on his back for the next 10, and then had his towel removed for the final ten minute segment which ended with a blowjob. The viewer count was incredibly high, because the show was so unique.
Now, take a minute and do two things. First, visit this site to watch first hand how sexy and enticing a video of a sex massage can be. As you can see, the product practically sells itself. Now go to Google, and search for the term "Massage Webcam Show". Not a single webcam sex provider offers live massage cam shows, which means you could have this niche all to yourself.
Imagine if an independent cam girl or two were to team up to offer scheduled sex massage shows. You could prepare a nice room with a real massage table, decorate with nice warm tones and colors, and setup 2 or 3 webcams to broadcast your massage encounters.
The secret here is to use more than one camera. If the webcam show is scheduled, why not have 3 customers connect all at once to watch it. You could charge each customer $2 per minute to watch (which would earn you $6 a minute, or $180 for a 30 minute sex massage performance) – not a bad payday for a 30 minute show.
I've never tried to stream 3 webcams over a single broadband connection, so I'm not sure if you'll need multiple incoming internet feeds. But even if you did, the extra cost would certainly be covered by the extra income this strategy would generate.
So what do you think – is niche webcam shows the way to go? Let us know in the comments section.

Ghostly Ghoulish Lollipops
November 3, 2014
To make these Ghostly Ghoulish Lollipops you will need:
Tissue paper
Googly eyes (optional and adorable)
Glue (to attach googly eyes)
This super easy craft comes together in minutes and makes a spooky good treat!
Cut your tissue paper into quarters and then into circles. Place your lollipop head into the center of the circle and bring the tissue paper down around the lollipop twisting onto the stem. Tie a ribbon to secure. You could finish here or go ahead and glue on some googly eyes to make them super cute!
You could hand them out this way or create a display like mine for kids to grab one for themselves. I just used the foam packing from my new printer as a base and cut it so it would stand evenly. I blew up and printed out clip art of a hunter house and placed it under a layer of tissue paper then wrapped it like a present. I then stuck the ghost lollipops all around the picture and had myself a spooky display.
I used this at the Halloween party I threw at my resort and it was a big hit! Let me know if you try this out in the comments below.
Have a spooktacular crafty day!
Child's Infinity Scarf
October 24, 2014
As you know I've been working on a baby blanket for the majority of this year (taking the entire summer off because I couldn't bare to pick up a wooly little blanket in the blazing heat). Well, this little baby boy has a big sister who is turning 5 this week and I thought it would be nice to send something for her when I mail the blanket. So this was my project, a one skein infinity scarf for an adorable little girl, made with a veriegated Loops & Threads Impeccable yarn of pink, brown and cream. I modified this adult infinity scarf pattern I found on Pinterest to create this snugly little piece. I used a 6.5mm K hook and made 20 stitches to start and proceeded to double crochet 68 rows, basically until I was almost out of yarn. I left enough yarn to attach the two ends together to become an infinity scarf and wallah, there you have it!
I think it will look much cuter on a sweet little five year old. On me it looks miniature but I think it will look cozy and full on her.
I'm just glad I got to FINISH a project. The baby blanket is coming along quite nicely so keep checking back for more pictures!
Keep it crafty!
Craftin' Down the Highway
October 14, 2014
Jeff and I went to a wedding in South Carolina this weekend and since it was only about a 7 hour drive we decided to make it a road trip. We saw five (that's right FIVE) national parks along the way to and from Orlando. One of them, the Castillo de San Marcos, we actually saw twice because I liked it so much on the way up we decided to go by St. Augustine again and spend a little more time there. (So you can even count that as six stops, but still just five parks). The wedding was a wonderful time to see some great friends from college and Jeff and I got to have an adventure together.
So in between hopping out of the car for mini hikes, tours of Spanish, French and English forts and stuffing our faces with pulled pork and fried chicken I got to work on something crafty and very special. One of my best friends I've know since I was a kid told me last year that she and her husband were trying to have a second child. They have an absolutely adorable almost five hear old girl who just won't stop growing and they decided it was time to give her a sibling while they could still play together. Well in January I just got a feeling that she was going to have a baby boy and before she was even pregnant I started crocheting a blue baby blanket. Well, sure enough a few months later she called and told me she was pregnant and a few months after that she told me it was a boy. (Am I clairvoyant, or what?)This was a great project for me while I was still living up north and taking my mom into Manhattan for chemo each week. It gave me something to do while my mom fell asleep during her treatments and also kept me warm in the chilly hospital. The more I crocheted, the more it covered, the warmer I became. Anyway, my mom finished that round of treatment and I got a new job and moved to Florida and became really busy and REALLY hot. I did not want to go anywhere near yarn all summer, especially a blanket made of it. The weather is finally starting to cool off a bit now and this road trip provided the perfect excuse to pick it up again. Good thing too, because this baby is due in December.
What is your favorite craft to take on the road? Leave your answer below to let me know.
Thank you for your interest. I will be posting the details on how to make one for yourself once I complete it. (Tip: I used a single crochet stitch for almost the entire blanket to keep a close weave so little baby fingers won't get caught.)
I hope you had a happy, safe and crafty holiday weekend! And keep craftin' on the highway, just make sure you have a designated driver!
Jute Wrapped Monogram Wreath
August 6, 2014
I am pretty happy with how this turned out considering it started out all wrong. Like, I picked this out to make for my best friend's wedding and got the wrong letter. I was operating on three hours of sleep and had just started my new job and was totally flaking in the present department. I got this great idea from Pinterest, ran to JoAnn Fabrics and grabbed this 'G' without even thinking. It only occurred to me while I was in already the middle of hot glueing the twine around the center of said 'G' that I completely failed. So anyway, I said what the heck, let me finish it anyway and I'll find someone who will appreciate this 'G' for its beauty and alphabetical presence.
I have found such a person and would like to wish her a happy belated birthday and Merry Christmas in August!
Materials you will need:
A cardboard letter of your choosing
Twine/Jute string
Tons of hot glue
The fun thing about it is that you can decorate it however you would like. I chose to stay minimal but feel free to get as creative as you want!
I will warn you that the hot gluing will take a while if you want to be really thorough. It took me about two hours. Also, you will burn your fingers, like, several times. But if you are an avid crafter like me you will get used to it.
I like I how it turned out so much I might have to make this a go-to gift. I just need to make sure I get enough sleep and grab the right letter next time.
It's the thought that counts, right?
Stay crafty my friends.
Watermelon Cake
July 14, 2014
This is a super cute and delicious cake without all the calories, not that I really care about that sort if thing. The hardest part was cutting the watermelon into the shape of a cake. I started with a giant watermelon, cut off each end, then cut the rind off creating a circular shape. I also was making this for Jeff to take to a potluck at work and had to be able to fit it in my cake carrier so I had to cut off a lot if the height. Once you cut your watermelon make sure to pat it dry with some paper towels so your whipped cream will stick. I beat 2 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream with a hand mixer until it started to thicken then added 1/4 cup of sugar a little at a time along with a bit of vanilla extract while still beating the whipped cream. The whole process took about five minutes and tastes delicious. I just started slathering it all over the watermelon like I would ice a cake. I had some blueberries and raspberries on hand and made a little design on top. Next I individually hand placed each slivered almond on the side of the cake. OMG that took so long. Half way through I just took a handful and tried to throw them on the side but then they were sticking out all jagged and in one spot so I went back to placing them by hand. A few weeks later on a plane ride from Orlando to Charlotte I met a lady from Haifa, Israel who told me there is some sort of bakers tool to help with this if I try it again in the future. Oh well. It turned out so pretty and I had the day off anyway. You could really decorate it however you'd like.
I love summer treats that are refreshing and surprising. This was a huge hit at Jeff's work and I came out looking like some Susie Homemaker, which is always fun. I do wear a lot of aprons. I think I get that from my mom.
Anyway, let me know if you've attempted to make a cake out of fruit or some other surprise! Post your creations in the comments!
Stay crafty my friends.

50 Foot Black Expandable Garden Hose by SUNNORS
I have a 1 acre yard and plants all over that yard. Having a good water hose is very important to me. I live in Florida and certain times of the year we get tons of rain, other times it could be weeks in between rain. I love my plants and I love having green grass. I end up watering daily during those almost drought times in order to keep my plants and lawn growing. Water hoses can be very heavy and bulky. This hose is 500 feet long when the water is on but when the water is off is shrinks up to about 17 feet. It is very lightweight even with the water on. It also comes with a 8 way sprayer. There is a setting great for what ever you want to make wet, from very tender plants to washing the car. You can also add extra hoses to the end in order to make it longer. When the hose is not in use you should make sure the water is off and either take the sprayer off or let it spray until the hose is empty so you do not rupture the inner hose. I am very happy with this hose.
I received this free but am not required to write a review, but I decided I should let people know about my experience with it.

Ningen Johatsu (A Man Vanishes) Reviews
December 28, 2012
Messy experimental pic that starts out as a documentary but changes to fiction.
Full Review | Original Score: B
Top Critic
November 19, 2012
The explosively provocative film progressively and aggressively blurs distinctions between documentary and fiction.
Top Critic
November 16, 2012
A part-fact, part-fiction narrative that challenges the very notion of whether true documentary can even exist.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4
November 15, 2012
Even for those who have seen the kind of productions since inspired by this daring experiment, A Man Vanishes should not be missed-or forgotten.
Top Critic
November 14, 2012
Seemingly banal in its conceit, wildly startling in its execution, it tracks a film crew that, like a detective squad, investigates what became of an ordinary man.
Read More | Original Score: 4/5
Top Critic
November 13, 2012
Remains a primo example that cinema actually traffics in truthiness 24 frames per second.
Full Review | Original Score: 5/5
November 12, 2012
The earthiest of Japanese New Wave directors, Shohei Imamura goes fascinatingly meta in this 1967 hybrid of investigative tract and ruminative experiment.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4
October 21, 2011
Here truth is presented as a series of clashing, circular stories, both multi-faceted and theatricalised, while the film's real subject remains forever hidden.

A quick look in the terminfo database (http://www.earthspace.net/~esr/terminfo/) shows there are a very large number of different sequences associated with khome/kend (e.g., for khome: \E[H ^^ \E[1~ \Ehm \E[Y \377\240 \E[7~ etc.). The correct way to make applications behave consistently with home and end, IMHO, would be something like: Screen-oriented programs that have/support cursor movement, e.g. editors, should use ncurses or an equivalent to parse the terminfo entry for the current TERM setting, and use that to support the following key behaviour, if it makes sense: "home" (khome): Move the cursor to the start of the current line. "end" (kend): Move the cursor to the end of the current line. "page up" (knp): Move one page up. "page down" (kpp): Move one page down. > That's a good idea, however, what the maintainers should do about it > depends on whether it's desirable to make a policy of only using \e[1~ > and \e[4~ or not. I don't think it is, as there are _many_ different sequences associated with home and end keys for different terminal types. With the backspace/delete issue, a big part of the problem is that many programs tried to fix it in their own particular way; with this issue, I don't think many programs are hardwired to expect specific sequences for home/end, pgup/pgdn etc.; the few that are should be changed to honour the terminfo entry.

February 7, 2012 by staff
Daredevils Wanted For York Hospital Skydive Challenge, ADVENTUROUS fundraisers are wanted by York Hospital to take part in a skydive challenge to help raise £300,000 this year.

Those who sign up will take to the air over the Lake District on March 24 for a 12,000 foot, freefall parachute jump.
Lucy Watson, fundraising manager for the hospital, said: "We are hoping the skydive will get as many people as possible supporting The STAR Appeal in a really fun way.
"Skydives offer an exhilarating challenge and offer people the chance to try something they might not normally do for a great cause. Why not share the fear and jump with a group of friends or work colleagues?
"We would love to hear from anyone looking for a challenge in 2012."

Yesterday they were furious and vowed to retaliate, but now as South Korea fired they don't hit back...
Did south korea fired ? The deadline is today to do their practicing :s
I don't se China helping DPRK militarily as they are afraid a fload of people coming into China. And if there's war, I guess that's the end of DPRK dynasty, US can destroy them:)
BJJY, there wouldn't never be 3rd world war. War is made to make business, selling arms. It's unlikely to be a war in Korean peninsula coz it's gonna be devastating, DPRK understand that as well as China. I do agree with you Demos can't afford to go war...not their philosophy
HEY U GUYS dont be afraid it...
Beijing JieNa Jiao Yu written that...definately i agree with that
btw,.. even though got some happen(war) ..
i'll be back to south korea ..sure~ one of south korean soldier..
thats my destiny..
I just don't see the DPRK reunited with the South, China would hardly agree and, who is gonna rule?
Jane, didn't you hear that the "cables leak" is a scam? It's just American propaganda that they are using to try to hurt China's relationships with its allies.

If you've been tuning in to season 6 of "Real Housewives of Atlanta," then you know things haven't been so good between husband and wife Phaedra Parks and Apollo Nida.
In fact, much of the show has been about Apollo's inappropriate relationship with fellow housewife, Kenya Moore.
On Tuesday, December 2nd, Phaedra visited TV host Bethenny Frankel on her daytime talk show, 'Bethenny', to discuss just that.
Frankel, who knows all too well about how reality television can ruin a relationship, asked Parks about the state of her relationship with Apollo since "Kenyagate".
Dismissing any claims that there is a strain within her marriage, Phaedra quickly replied with, "As far as me and my husband? Oh, we're fine."
Phaedra did go on to say that she felt Apollo was partly to blame for texting and continuing a friendship with Moore after the two ladies had had a fall out. She also admits it's been difficult to watch the drama unfold each week on the popular reality series.
When asked why she thinks things happened the way that they did, "Because they are two inappropriate people acting inappropriately," she replied.
On whether she feels texting between any woman and a married man or vice versa is strictly forbidden, Phaedra also clarified her believes on maintaining friends in a marriage.
"I'm not saying that it's not allowed ever, but when I'm no longer friends with someone, you should no longer be friends with them because we're a team," she answered.
Meanwhile, Kenya has continued to claim she's innocence and hadn't acted inappropriately at any time with Apollo. She also accuses him of being a liar.

Orr Sommerfeld equation
My question is very fundamental.
why, at all do we need to have a separate equation that predicts the growth or decay of perturbations in a steady base flow..? If at all, there are any perturbations in the flow, why can't the resultant motion of fluid be predicted using the usual Navier Stokes equations??
Because Navier-Stokes equation is too complicated to be solved analytically. This is the main problem of all fluid dynamics. That is why we still know almost nothing exact about turbulence.
thanks a lot for replying... but as far as i know, even Orr - Sommerfeld equation is a fourth order linear differential equation which cannot be solved analytically for most cases, and various numerical methods have to be resorted to solve it... In that case would it not be better to bear with a little more complexity in terms of better numerical methods and solve the full N-S equations?
As you said Orr-Sommerfeld is a linear system, while Navier-Stokes is nonlinear and shows chaotic behavior (turbulence) which is difficult analyse even numerically (DNS is done on supercomputers).
In the case of Orr-Somerfeld you have a possibility of qualitative analysys of transition to turbulence. You can see how perturbations amplify etc.
thanks.. that was really helpful..

text: The Prime Nautica Captan Clay Desmode was unusually anxious this morning, it was partly because he had consumed an extra cup of coffee from the ships mess hall, but mostly due to the fact that he was about to address his new crew. He awaited their introduction with hope and pride; Hope that they could, as a team, bring much needed supplies to struggling races all over the galaxy, and Pride that they would be manning his most prized possession, The Prime Nautica. Pacing back and forth in the Captains Chambers, Clay took notice to the many screens that reported various data from all parts of the ship. She was a smooth running beauty, though Clay, and in time would prove just how valuable she really was. Not only equipped with high impact laser shields, she was also packing Twin proton cannons on the nose along with six basters on each side. The Captain was confident in their survival rate if hostel forces came their way. A high pitch beep came from the overhead monitor, signaling that the time had some. Captai Desmode grabbed the near by intercom and gave this announcement: " Good Morning, This is Captain Clay Desmode, welcoming you all aboard the Prime Nautica. I hope that your luggage and accessories found their way on the ship O.K. and that you are well settled and ready to depart. Before we leave I wish to meet with you all in the Commons lounge so I can properly introduce myself to you and brief you on our first mission. That is all." Captain Desmode clicked off the intercom and headed to the Commons Lounge to meet and brief his new Crew.

Pilates, Barre, and Yoga for Pregnancy & New Baby
Exercising while pregnant may be extremely beneficial to your health and your well-being, providing mind and body benefits during your pregnancy, childbirth, and even beyond. Maiden Lane Studios offers private Pilates and yoga for our prenatal clients.
We are happy to help recommend a program that works with your personal needs.
Note: Please make sure you have permission from your health care provider before beginning any exercise program while pre- or post-natal.
Some general benefits of exercising during pregnancy:
- Boost your energy and metabolism
- Sleep better
- Reduce pregnancy discomfort
- Prepare for childbirth
- Reduce stress and lift your spirits
- Improve your self-image
- Help embrace the physical changes of pregnancy and become more in tune with your body
- Get your body back after childbirth
Exercise after pregnancy
- Builds stamina and strengthens hips, back, arms, and shoulders
- Improves balance and circulation
- Helps to facilitate a more comfortable birthing process with postures that help to open the pelvis
- Yogic breathing aids in mental focus and relaxation during delivery
- After the baby is born, yoga is a great form of exercise to help get the body moving without overexertion
Benefits of Pilates:
- Strengthens back, pelvic floor, and core muscles, which equips your body better to cope with the strains caused by the weight of your growing baby. Hormones make the tissues (ligaments) that connect your bones more pliable in pregnancy, making you more prone to injury.
- Reduces back pain, by exercising the deepest tummy muscles that stabilize your back and pelvis. Weak muscles can lead to back or pelvic pain.
- Strengthens your pelvic floor, which supports your bowel, bladder and uterus (womb) as your baby grows and moves down, helping to prevent incontinence.
- Helps with balance, which can be thrown off during pregnancy. Pilates exercises strengthen your core and may make you more stable when you walk as your bump grows.
- Improves posture
- Breath and heightened body awareness
- Helps to restore general well-being
- Keeps you moving through-out the entire pregnancy
Benefits of Yoga:
- Builds stamina and strengthens hips, back, arms, and shoulders
- Improves balance and circulation
- Helps to facilitate a more comfortable birthing process with postures that help to open the pelvis
- Yogic breathing aids in mental focus and relaxation during delivery
- After the baby is born, yoga is a great form of exercise to help get the body moving without overexertion
Benefits of Barre:
- Aids in building strength and toning muscles with low impact, controlled movements
- Standing barre work is performed with the use of the barre, making it an assisted and safe workout
- Increases heart rate to a safe cardiovascular zone for pregnant women
Pilates is a great form of exercise during part of your pregnancy to strengthen your pelvic muscles, increase shoulder stability, maintain correct posture, and improve balance during your pregnancy. Pilates movements are mostly performed in a prone (referred to as a plank), supine (lying on your back) or side-lying position. Pilates exercises offer you the opportunity to focus on "growing your spine" and correct postural misalignments.
Q&A With Alexandria,
One of Our Expecting Pilates Clients
How has Pilates helped you in the pre-natal process?
Pilates gave me the core strength I needed to stay in shape during my pregnancies. I still remember how strong my abs felt when I gave birth to my son. I will always do Pilates.
How has it helped you in the post-natal process?
Pilates not only helped my body bounce back into shape within 6 months of having a child, but it also helped me identify areas of my body that needed extra attention.
How long have you been doing Pilates and why are you drawn to it as a form of exercise not only for pregnancy, but for your own personal fitness?
I started doing Pilates in 2007. As they say, "It changed my life!" My body has transformed into a longer, leaner, toner body because of my Pilates practice. I won't ever give it up because I love how it makes me feel and how it enhances my body.
Why Pilates at Maiden Lane Studios?
Maiden lane is not just a beautiful place to workout, but a studio with instructors that care just as much about technique as giving you a great workout. It's the best of everything. The instructors are not only likable and skilled, but also dedicated to making sure you feel the burn. And the studio is perfectly posh without having an air of about it.

The tape has been at the centre of a diplomatic row with a UK medical examiner demanding the tapes be released for him to establish the cause of death in the inquest into LCoH Hull's death. The coroner's request has been refused by the US authorities stating that the tapes contain secret mission information.
The transcript published by the newspaper shows no mission details, leading some to believe US defence authorities are instead protecting the airmen, whose identities have not been revealed, from the threat of UK prosecution. Under US law, no serving military personnel can be subject to civil or criminal cases in other jurisdictions, the deputy chief of mission at the US Embassy in London, David Johnson, told BBC radio this morning.
Coroner Andrew Walker is understood now to believe that the video is now in the public domain and as such will be shown when the inquest resumes in March.

No one had a bad to word to say about Ann Maguire: quite the opposite, in fact. The 61-year-old Leeds teacher stabbed to death in her classroom was clearly an inspiration both to her pupils and her colleagues, as Anthony McGowan, a former pupil, remembers. She was greatly respected and much loved. She had taught at Corpus Christi Catholic College for 40 years and was nearing a well-earned retirement later this year. The extraordinary outpouring of grief and affection from current and past pupils is a reflection of the impact she had on so many lives. At some point in our school days, most of us – if we were lucky – will have come across a teacher like Mrs Maguire; and the impression they leave never fades.
The brutal manner of her death has shocked not just the school and the local community, but the entire nation. Mercifully, such events are exceptionally rare: Mrs Maguire is believed to be the first teacher killed in class, allegedly stabbed by a 15-year-old pupil. It would be wrong to over-react to what has happened by introducing metal detectors in all schools or routinely searching pupils. By and large, schools are safe environments. But teachers do increasingly feel threatened either by aggressive pupils or their parents, and are often bullied on social media sites.
While the circumstances of Mrs Maguire's death are still unclear, the teenage suspect is thought to have been a loner. Do schools have appropriate procedures in place for picking up signs of dysfunction in pupils and dealing with them adequately? In time, these and other questions may need to be addressed and answered. But for now, as the floral tributes pile up outside the school she served with such distinction, we should remember the example set by Ann Maguire, and be thankful.

Ward upset not to claim win
Bristol Rovers boss John Ward felt his side might have done enough to take all three points against Bury at the Memorial Stadium.
Last Updated: 16/11/13 8:22pm
Bristol Rovers boss John Ward felt his side might have done enough to take all three points against Bury at the Memorial Stadium.
The Pirates remain without a home win since the end of August after a 1-1 draw with the Shakers.
Ward's team were gifted a fourth-minute lead when Shaun Beeley mistimed his challenge on Eliot Richards to concede a penalty, which John-Joe O'Toole fired high into the roof of the net.
But Bury were the better side in the opening half and deservedly equalised after 36 minutes when the Pirates failed to clear a Beeley cross from the right and Danny Hylton shot home from close range.
Ward said: "(Bury interim manager) Ronnie (Jepson) will feel his side did enough to win it in the first half and we feel much the same about the second period.
"I was thinking of taking off Alfie Santos because we couldn't get the ball to him for 45 minutes. But that changed after the break and he really got into the game.
"Unfortunately, he has nicked a hamstring in the closing stages and we will need to assess that over the next 48 hours.
"People can look at it that we have only won once in the last four games or that we are unbeaten in four. I prefer to take the positive view."

London, United Kingdom (PressExposure) June 21, 2009 -- Despite of the emergence of several positive signs, UK financial market is still at the depressing stage.
Efforts for proper debt management are now at forefront of the Britons to eradicate the chances of emergence of any uncertain debt.

63-year old Vadivammal is the daughter of yesteryear's legendary comedian N.S. Krishnan and lives in Madurai. N.S. Krishnan happens to be first 'comedy superstar' of Tamil films and managed to pass on many socially relevant messages through his comic portions and dialogues in films. Vadivammal has recently been cheated in a land deal by close family friends.
Resident of Andalpuram in Madurai, Vadivammal's husband Varadarajan came into contact with Nagarajan, his wife Chandra and two others when he stayed in Chennai for some time. They quartet, who claimed to be hailing from Anna Nagar in Madurai, had become very close to the family of Vadivammal.
The quartet had helped Vadivammal in procuring 3.42 cents of land in Vandiyoor. Nagarajan then told her that there was a highly 'valuable property' coming up for sale in Pondy Bazaar in the heart of Chennai and forced her to sell the land in Vandiyoor to purchase the Pondy Bazaar property. Based on faith, Vadivammal reportedly gave Nagarajan the 'power' to clinch the land deal on behalf of her.
Nagarajan reportedly sold off the Vandiyoor lands at a higher cost instead of trying to secure the property at Pondy Bazaar, causing breach of faith. He was helped by four others in this fraud, it is said. Acting on a complaint filed by Vadivammal, the Madurai police swung into action and are investigating the case.

Dearest Susan,ReplyDelete
Yes, a year is gone again... And what you sum up about your three 'minis', product of their Mom and their Father, is at times very touching.
Julian always has been a quiet, more introvert type but he is also very sensitive... Sure he was a Daddy's boy and that is torn apart now, no more complete family that is.
Hope he will grow out of this raw feeling of hurt and finding peace too.
Ava is so energetic and probably will take emotional things the easiest of all three.
Wishing you good luck; all of you that is.

Huawei Honor series is online available great smartphone. Honor series mainly target the middle class people and they are extremely successful in this task.
The latest phone available in this series is Honor 5 X. This mid-range phone is perfect for the person who want more in less price. With a fingerprint sensor, 4G dual-SIM connectivity and the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 SoC, the Honor 5X has a lot to offer for Rs. 12,999(200$). As we already know that the reputation on Chinese company is very bad in market in the sence of every product but Huawei is an exception. The reputation of Huawei takes a boost few months ago when it was chosen for Google Nexus 6P . Let's see weather Honor 5X can take a stands on our expectations.
Look and design
The best part about this phone is that the phone has a metal body. People were confused and will always confused weather metal is good for phone or plastic. Having said that, the device's finish looks and feels more like plastic than metal. Honor seems have dull finish as to look as metal body . Part of the reason may also be the fact that the phone doesn't feel very heavy – oddly enough, it weighs even less than some similarly sized plastic phones do. The typical benefits that metal provides are, as a result, lost in translation.
The back is extremely dull, with the camera and single-tone LED flash at the top, fingerprint sensor right below them, and the Honor logo as regular written below. The worst part is that there are too many taxt written with logo which decrease attraction towards look. The fingerprint sensor is the same colour as the body and blends in rather well, but the regulatory text stands out and diminishes the look of the back.
The sides of the Honor 5X are made up of the same aluminium alloy piece as the back, but the top and bottom are plastic which is irritating, if the up down are also made of plastic then it will be durable.
That grip is very low and some time it seems that it can slipped out from our hands. The power and volume keys are located on the right, the SIM and microSD trays are on the left, the 3.5mm socket is on the top, and the Micro-USB port and speaker are at the bottom. There are two grilles, but only the one on the right actually houses a speaker. There are fortunately separate trays for both SIMs as well as expandable storage. One SIM tray can hold a Nano-SIM while the other is designed for a Micro-SIM. Both slots are 4G-enabled, so this offers a bit of flexibility to the user.
The front of the device has a 5.5-inch IPS-LCD screen. The use of front is almost good as max area is covered by screen. The device does not have capacitive off-screen navigation buttons, relying instead on on-screen ones. At the top are the proximity sensor, front camera, earpiece, and notification light. The phone also comes with a factory-fitted screen protector film. Running all around the front and extending partly onto the sides is a smooth plastic strip.
The Honor 5X seems not give strong competition to other mid range phone as it have almost similar specifications we got to see in other mid range phone. However, there are few interesting things to note. The 5X is powered by the updated version of Qualcomm Snapdragon 615, which is Snapdragon 616 SoC. Some apps do identify the SoC on the 5X as the Snapdragon 615, since the 616 is essentially a 615 'v2'.
Other specifications include 2GB of RAM. This point can be improved with 3 GB RAM . A relatively modest 16GB of internal storage (expandable by up to 128GB using a microSD card), a 3000mAh non-removable battery.
We are really very disappointed with Android version 5.1.1 Lollipop as we had a great hope that it comes with pre loaded 6.0 Marshmallow as we same problem in Vibe K4 note. Like Samsung, Sony, HTC and a few others, Huawei customises the look and feel of the standard Android experience. The company calls its modified Android "Emotion UI" or EMUI for short. However in our view this UI looks worse than standard Android UI. The icons lack finesse and look rather poor, and the overall design is missing the sense of sophistication that we're used to seeing on manufacturer UIs such as Sense UI and even stock Android. Every time you install a new app, the phone prompts you to grant or deny it permission to send you notifications, and the system by default prevents non-system applications from running in the background. There is also a power-saving prompt which constantly shows you which apps are using too much power, but this can fortunately be switched off.
The Honor 5X has a 13-megapixel primary camera with single-tone LED flash and variable focus, and a 5-megapixel front camera with fixed focus. The rear camera can record video at up to 1080p resolution, while the front camera can record the video of 720p which quite good. Both cameras both video modes and options, along with a many manual controls, filters and settings that keep the camera lively as you need.
The camera app exactly same as the one we saw on the Honor 7, with the same set of controls and features in place. Modes for panorama, all-focus, HDR, slow motion video, watermark and audio note are all useful options, and additional modes for beauty, food and time-lapse might have takers as well. There is quick access to the filters, flash toggle, and camera switcher, while the timer can be accessed through the Settings menu. GPS tagging, touch-to-capture, object tracking and resolution can also be controlled through the Settings menu. It's a decent camera app that may seem a bit confusing because of the number of controls and settings, but is something we warmed up to quickly. We really loved the slow motion video.
We found the camera surprisingly good. The camera is normally one of the corners cut with lower-priced smartphones. It isn't as good as that fitted to the Nexus 6P , but it was easily as good as many other mid-to-high end smartphones in good lighting
In the dark it took admirable shots of the outdoors, did OK in indoor light, but struggled with poor lighting conditions. The camera app is relatively easy to use and effective, although the lack of an easy-to-reach HDR button is an oversight.
The selfie camera produces decent shots. They are solid enough for most people quickly snapping photos of themselves, but lack fine detail in all but really good lighting.
The SoC gave us performance comparable to its predecessor, with smooth functioning through the user interface, decent performance with games and heavily encoded videos, and minimal heating issues. Having a fingerprint scanner while costing Rs 12999(200$) instantly sets the Honor 5X apart from almost all its rivals. The fingerprint scanner is fast and easy to use, placed on the back in a similar position to that of the Honor 7 , Nexus 6P and a couple of other Android devices. It can also be used for other features, such as taking photos, answering calls, activating the notification shade or recently used apps.
When it came to benchmark figures, the Honor 5X performed well enough for a phone in its category. AnTuTu and Quadrant returned figures of 35,137 and 26,368 respectively, while GFXBench and 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme managed14fps and 5508. As stated, this translates into decent real world performance that is reliable and efficient.
The 5X has pretty good battery life, which is longer than most of a similar price. In our testing using it as my main phone, we had done a lot of work on phone, sends emails and messages, as well as browsing the web and apps for around three hours we would finish the day with 40% battery left. The phone ran for 9 hours, 20 minutes in our video loop test, which is a bit lower than we were expecting.
The Honor 5X is a sensible mid-range smartphone that checks all the right boxes. It's got an excellent screen and useful fingerprint sensor that does a lot more than most competitors' offerings. The only real shortcomings are annoying software and slightly sub-par battery life, but these are easily forgivable when you consider the overall package.
In our review team opinion Moto G Turbo edition and a great phone of mid range price segment Lenovo Vibe K4 note would be a better choice.
What is custom ROM?
ROM is short for Read-Only Memory. It has many versions just like Windows OS does; no matter it is stock ROMs from companies, or custom ROM from third party. This new custom ROM can bring you the latest version of Android before your manufacturer. Anyhow, flashing a new ROM means installing a new operating system to your Android.
The new Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow comes with many new features :
- Mobile payments (Android Pay) feature.
- Better RAM Management.
- Fingerprint support.- A battery saver feature which extends device use by up to 90 mins.
- It has a faster, smoother and more powerful computing experience.
- Support for 64-bit SoCs using ARM, x86, and MIPS-based cores.
- OpenGL ES 3.1 and Android extension pack brings Android to the forefront of mobile graphics putting it on par with desktop and console class performance.
- Responsive, natural motion, realistic lighting and shadows, and familiar visual elements make it easier to navigate your device.
- More intelligent ranking of notifications based on who they're from and the type of communication.
- See all your notifications in one place by tapping the top of the screen.
- New devices come with encryption automatically turned on to help protect data on lost or stolen devices.
- SELinux enforcing for all applications means even better protection against vulnerabilities and malware.
- State of the art video technology with support for HEVC main profile to allow for UHD 4K 10-bit video playback, tunneled hardware video decoding to save power and improved HLS support for streaming.
- and other cool features.
Note: If there is more than one download option, that likely means that you need to download and install the Bug Fix Update for your smartphone or tablet device before you can actually update to 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
Step 1:Before you go trying to update your device, you should check which version of Android you are running. You might already be on the latest version. It's easy to check so follow this guide up to step four. This screen will have a section called 'Android version'. If it doesn't, click 'Software information' to find out.
Step 2:Scroll down the Settings menu and click on 'About Phone' or 'About Tablet'. If you have a tabbed settings menu then this will appear in the 'general' section.
Refer to Android developer page to choose which version of Android your phone or tablet is running. I.e, 4.0.4 corresponds to Ice Cream Sandwich, an old version of Android that was released in 2013.
Step 3:Note: Your phone or tablet may require a Wi-Fi connection to search for an update. We suggest you to download the software Droid Over Wi-Fi because the file size can be large.
Choose and click the "Software Update" option. Next it will search available update for your phone or tablet. If update is available, you will be asked if you want to install it. Select "yes" and it will install the new operating system in your device. If you want to install it later, you can download the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow file first. Download Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.zip
Everything work perfect, thank you.
I like the wifi app, it makes download faster and easy to use. Support is fantastic too.
Good stuff here, it is the best by far
This is a good source and many will find it very helpful.
Thank you this extremely helpful! Just upgrade my tablet. Thanks!
Thanks for the update. Good stuff.

What I would like to do, is based on the data being bound to the treeview is assign a different SkinID to each node as they are created.
My problem is that the 2 events I have to work with, NodeCreated and NodeDataBound, won't accomplish this. NodeCreated is too early because I can't determine the type of node being created because the DataItem value of e.Node is null. NodeDataBound is too late because the node has already been added to the Controls collection and the SkinID cannot be assigned.
How would I go about accomplishing this?

To Amal Alamuddin aka Mrs. George Clooney. He was once considered to be the most eligible bachelor on the planet, but he is now half of your team.
Anyone else who ties the knot with their girlfriends, or fiancees. Take it from this veteran spouse, who recently celebrated one year of another marriage, after "Living in Sin" for 10 years, as the some religious or conservative folks, including my late aunt would call it.
Please know the most difficult task of being a newlywed is transitioning from that blissful bubble of your wedding and the honeymoon to the realization that life does return to normal.
Upon your return, you may find your houseplants died while you were on your honeymoon. Or in Yirong Chen and Roberto Soto's case, our plans changed as we sadly experienced the deathwatch of my dad's "Little" sister, our beloved aunt Chiquitica.
Please know that everyday life has to continue. If it doesn't, you'll run out of money in either a few weeks, or months, or in several thousand lifetimes from now for wealthy newlyweds like Mr. and Mrs. Clooney. The important thing is that you're married and you will continue to show your love, respect, mutual admiration for one another and constant communication, regardless of the languages spoken.
Here are some of my favorite last bits of advice. A happy wife makes a happy life. Do not argue with your clothes on. If you are about to fight go somewhere private and get naked. You'll probably forget the petty thing you were going to be fighting about and if you're still fighting nude, then it's a serious issue you should talk through ASAP.

On 18th of May, 2015, John Malou along with 2 community mobilizers set out for Paloch Payam, Rumbek East, for Payam level entry activities. Paloch Payam is 25KM from the ACROSS compound. At Paloch they heard how raiders from Rumbek East and Rumbek Central had stolen cows from Yirol West County and had abducted 2 boys. The Across team requested to see the boys who narrated their ordeal.
Their abductors struck at 3:00 pm and forced them and their cattle to run all evening. At about mid night they were in the middle of a forest when one of the abductors told his colleagues that they should abandon the boys there. But another abductor, who was opposed to this, said that if they were left in the forest they could get lost, die of hunger and thirst or worse be eaten by wild animals. The abductors disagreed over what to do with the boys and this sparked a heated argument which almost resulted in a shoot out. Finally they agreed to move on with the boys. Early in the morning they left the boys by the road side and went away with the cattle.
Tired, hungry and thirsty the 2 boys just lay by the roadside until a man came along riding a bicycle. At first he thought they were dead but on moving closer and talking to them he realized that they were alive. He then took them to a nearby village from where they were handed over to the chief.
The ACROSS team gave the boys some food then proceeded with them to meet the community members in Paloch Payam. At the meeting they talked about peace and reconciliation and asked the listeners not to harm the boys. They then proceeded with the boys to the county authorities to ensure that they were handed over to their families.
They found the county authorities having a meeting known as Gelwok. John requested the Executive Director of the county to speak to the youth on the adverse effects of cattle raids. The innocent victims such as the 2 boys would be in danger of losing their lives. He beseeched the community to respond differently by returning the children back.
Exec. Director Rumbek East County records the boys' names
After the speech the Executive Director called the commissioner of Yirol West County and informed him about the presence of the boys in his county. The ACROSS team contacted their Logoseed team mates in Yirol West County and ensured that the children were taken back to their families.
Three days later youth from Yirol West also raided Rumbek East. They stole an equal number of cattle as had been stolen from them. They also abducted 2 boys. Then they clothed the boys and returned them back to Rumbek East unharmed!
Narrated by John Malou Manyiel (LOGOSEED Project Officer)
Edited by Irene Kagwiria
Brief narrative - Often when there have been cattle raids abductees' lives have been endangered. Aggrieved communities have retaliated causing brutal killings and sparking a cycle of attack and counter attack. Through LOGOSEED programme more raiders are warming up to peace interventions. There is more value for life. It is hopeful that cattle raids will wane eventually becoming a thing of the past.
ACROSS being a Well know Organization in the Lakes State has done great things hence the good reputation even upto the grassroots. The Communities of the people living in Rumbek are good in that they can easily understand themselves and settle their disputes alone. We are honoured to serve such a great community.
