Why does your dental cleaning always seem to be scheduled on your busiest day? You find yourself contemplating canceling your appointment. Your teeth feel good, so it's not a big deal to reschedule your appointment, right?
Wrong! Did you know that when your teeth feel good, it is the best time to visit your dentist for a cleaning and examination? If you wait until your teeth hurt to visit your dentist, the damage has probably already been done. Read on to learn how important your dental cleanings in St. Paul, MN are for not only your oral health but also your overall health and well being.
What Happens During My Routine Dental Visit?
A few essential things happen during your six-month cleaning and checkup. First, your dentist performs a thorough examination to detect any concerns like gum disease, oral cancer, or tooth decay as early as possible. All of these issues are best treated early on so you can choose less invasive and less costly procedures.
Next, your hygienist will remove the excess plaque buildup from your teeth, which contributes to gum disease, tooth decay, and cavities. Your hygienist is also an excellent resource for learning proper brushing and flossing techniques, and suggestions for products that might benefit your oral health.
The Oral Systemic Link
As more information emerges, we understand that there is a significant connection between your oral health and your overall health. Studies have shown that the inflammation and bacteria that causes issues like gum disease, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure are the same. If you have diabetes, you are more likely to struggle with gum disease, and vice versa.
Taking good care of your oral health has never been more critical because it also contributes to your overall well being.
If you have questions about this information or need to schedule your next appointment, we encourage you to contact Dr. O'Neill, your dentist in St. Paul, MN today.

Some may have found it odd seeing one of the biggest symbols of crime on the campus of a police training facility.
For years, a long, skinny building sat on the grounds of the Savannah-Chatham police Travis Field instruction site. Some of its windows were broken. Its floors and walls were covered with dust and grime.
But this month, a little ingenuity by metro police instructors brought the building back to life. They spent a weekend turning the vacant structure into a shoot house.
"It was a wasted space we could really use," said Gene Foster, a metro police instructor. "It just sat here for years abandoned."
On Tuesday afternoon, veteran metro officers took on the repurposed facility, which was filled with a maze of walls built by the instructors using particle board and two-by-fours.
For the exercise, the officers were told to check out an open door at a business with someone possibly inside.
"All they know is that it's an open door," Foster said. "It could be a burglary in progress or anything."
Foster said the design of the walls now allows the building to play a variety of roles. As officers walk in, it's the setting of a doctor's office lobby. Then there are several hallways of varying sizes and rooms with two entrances. There also are intersecting hallways, which is where an officer can be most vulnerable, he said.
"The whole point of doing this is we're trying to teach officers to never clear a building by yourself," he said. "It's not even good to do it with two officers - the more, the better.
"This will show them the pitfalls of that."
A classroom was included in the design so officers also could train on scenarios similar to the tragedy at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo.
Metro Cpl. Chris Boyette was one of the instructors assigned to critique officers through every move they made. He said the officers are trained regularly so they don't forget how to use those particular skills.
"If you don't keep up on the technique you will lose it," Boyette said. "We definitely don't want them to do that."
Foster said he and his colleagues knew the department budget was tight, so he came up with a design. Then training instructors got together over the weekend to build.
"It was a very simple project," he said. "We worked morning till dark and got the job done."
Metro police training director Gary Taylor said he spent about $1,000 on materials to build the facility. If a contractor were hired, the bill would have risen to about $3,000, including labor.
Metro police officer Hiram Rivera played the role of a suspect during the exercise. In place of using their real guns, officers were given ones that shoot plastic bullets filled with blue or pink colored soap.
For his protection, Rivera wore a helmet and body armor similar to a baseball catcher. Streaks of blue and pink were evidence of past shots from past exercises.
"It's an instant sting," Rivera said. "It's a little like having sand blown in your face at the beach only it's concentrated in one spot.
"It's a reminder to officers of what they did wrong if they got shot."

Call for more grit in cold
PUBLISHED: 09:11 29 December 2009 | UPDATED: 16:02 03 July 2010
Council chiefs are facing mounting pressure to hold an urgent review into the gritting of pavements on Norfolk after the recent cold snap sparked complaints that too many were left in a treacherous state.
Council chiefs are facing mounting pressure to hold an urgent review into the gritting of pavements on Norfolk after the recent cold snap sparked complaints that too many were left in a treacherous state.
As the recent snows gave way to icy conditions fears were raised about the focus on clearing the roads, while many pavements were untouched.
Last week saw a flurry of hospital admissions following people falling over in the icy conditions.
And with temperatures set to plummet again in the New Year, opposition Lib Dem councillors at Norfolk County Council want the administration to look again at how roads and paths were kept ice free.
The county council's website says that it does not normally treat cycle ways of pavements, though it adds it will treat footways on a priority basis after prolonged periods of snow or ice
The council said it had tried to do minor and estate roads during the cold snap as well as footpaths, though the sheer numbers to cover meant it was difficult to do them all. In Norwich, responsibility for gritting rests with the city council.
But Tim East, Lib Dem spokesman for planning and transportation, is trying to get the issue raised as an urgent item at the next week's planning and transportation review panel meeting.
"The snowy pre-Christmas period has been a truly testing time for the disabled, frail, vulnerable and elderly people in the county," he said. "Most have been trapped indoors in the absence of any gritting on pavements and side streets, particularly in the market towns.
"Regrettably the strategically located grit bins were not replenished with grit once they had been emptied. When the county council doesn't frequently top them up in severe weather conditions, empty grit bins are useless for treating side streets and pavements.
"Even though the major roads were cleared, the problem lay in getting to them from the side streets which were not gritted. Some pedestrians even resorted to walking in the road because pavements were so treacherous to walk on".

Quarter-final day for the VETS as we welcomed the players and two supporters of Tillingham Hotspur to the Peter May centre.Tillingham is a small village not far from Burnham on crouch and at a distance of almost 60 miles from Walthamstow,one can only begin to imagine the "hilarious"..oh stop it.. navigational situations that would have occurred had we been drawn away.As it was our guests had the good sense to travel down in a mini-bus,so although they only arrived at kick-off time they at least turned up together.This gave us the opportunity to get a good warm up in,as the game kicked off as soon as they arrived on the pitch.We hoped to exploit their lack of preparation by playing down the slope in the first half.This decision turned out to be a master stroke as we tore into them from the whistle.Once again the left hand side provided most joy with Trevor and Darren combining to great effect.The visitors,though looking to play a tidy passing game,were clearly well out of sorts in the opening 15 minutes.Inevitably we made the breakthrough,an outswinging corner from the "Dazzler"was met by a thumping header from MARTIN TREADWAY that tore into the net for 1-0.
Final Score:HALE END ATHLETIC 4
You can only guess at how things might have turned out if Tillingham arrived in time to prepare and warm up properly.We quite rightly used the situation to our advantage and in the second half got a taste of what they were capable of.We got behind each other when we were under the cosh and that as much as anything is the reason we have a semi-final to look forward to.
Man of the Match: Gary Doodes As well as some tremendous saves, took two big hits for the green shirt.(a luminous light green shirt in his case)
Team:G.DOODES,S.WINDEATT T.BURTON,K.WHITWORTH H.FRANCIS,B.SMITH,S.BUTT P.OBINKWO,D.FOSS,T.OYEDEJI M.TREADWAY, H.HASSAN, R.GAYLE, P.LAUGHE ,B.HOWARD.

October 31, 2008 Castle Dale Visit
Last week Brian, Meg, and I spent the afternoon and evening in Castle Dale. Mayor Peacock was not only a great host…but a great tourguide as well taking us for a quick visit to the San Rafael Swell. It was a perfect fall day, here are a few pictures…
We did do some work while we were there too…I spent an hour talking about local taxes, specifically sales tax and how to forecast sales tax during this uncertain economy. You can download a pdf of the presentation here: Castle Dale Presentation

Dinant, Belgium
Sep 17 2019 I'd first seen Dinant on a post by the #hiltonthehymer folks. I have no idea why this town isn't better known, it's extraordinarily spectacular. It's home to a clifftop Citadel as well as the Leffe beer museum (Tiny Leffe is one kilometre downstream). We made those 2 places our must-see items. Luckily there's a cable-car to the Citadel and it's worth the fare. The Citadel tour is very interesting but it's the views from its wall that take your breath away. Next we made our way to the Leffe Museum, Maison Leffe (pr. 'Leffah'). I love their beers but never realised their ancient history and traditions. By the time you've toured the museum, and heard about the ingredients..etc, you've developed quite a thirst. The €7 ticket buys you a 3 beer tasting at the bar plus a free bottle of your choice. I think it works out cheaper than drinking in the local bars. I came away with my 2 favourites "Royale" and "Brune". Both delicious. So, in short, I'd say Dinant is an unmissable 2 night stop if you are visiting Belgium. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The campsite is 20 minutes walking from town, along the river (Camping Devant Bouvignes). Lee

Searching for the WS2812 I stumbled upon a new product from Worldsemi: the WS2812B. It looks like the WS2812 but it has 4 pins instead of 6. The low-pass filter seems to be built-in now so it does not have seperate power pins for the LEDs and the logic. Also, it allows a much simpler PCB design because of the new pin layout. Maybe there is demand for this component... I certainly am curious.
No public wish lists :(

Vinyl is over. Again.
There's a reason it became uncool the first time around, in the '80s—it was bulky, fragile and technologically inferior to the then-new format of compact discs. After a brief resurgence caused by the impressionability of hipsters and their insatiable thirst for inconvenient trinkets, it looks as though we've reached Peak Vinyl. Collectors cherish Record Store Day and the opportunity it presents to snatch up rare, one-off pressings made specifically for the event, but the annual logjam such releases create for vinyl pressing plants is a well-documented source of frustration.
There is a better way, as it turns out, and it's been rotting in the budget bin of your favorite record store since the late '90s. While the industry has deemed vinyl and streaming to be the commercial future of recorded music, CDs have been devalued to the point of absurdity. But the same cycle of nostalgia that made vinyl cool again is bound to come back around and whisk the sonically superior CD back into public consciousness, turning those piles of discarded Smash Mouth and Sugar Ray albums you purchased 20 years ago for $18.99 to hear the one song you liked into plastic gold.
Rather than spend your money on this year's ketchup-scented, confetti-infused RSD exclusive 7-inch from Jack White, we believe this Record Store Day is the perfect time to reassess the bevy of records you're all but guaranteed to find collecting dust at your local record store. Here's the best of what we found on a recent afternoon combing the CD bins in search of gold.
Filter, Title of Record
Former Nine Inch Nails touring guitarist Richard Patrick struck gold with his splinter group's 1995 hit "Hey Man Nice Shot," but the rest of Filter's debut, Short Bus, was forgettable NIN-lite filler. Lots of teenage girls bought the band's 1999 follow-up to hear the bongo-heavy New Age ballad "Take a Picture," but deep cuts like "Welcome to the Fold" and "It's Gonna Kill Me" are near-perfect aggro-electro with just enough crunchy guitars to nominally qualify as rock 'n' roll. Also of note is "The Best Things," a spiritual cousin to Republica's essential jock jam "Ready to Go" that perfectly demonstrates just how much justice the CD format did for over-compressed late-'90s alt-rock.
Orbit, Libido Speedway
Hailing from Boston, Orbit's sound was too blatant a Pixies ripoff to garner any sort of buzz beyond moderate radio play of this 1997 album's single "Medicine." After repeated listens of "Wake Up" and "Paper Bag," it's irritating that Sponge became a household name and Orbit didn't.
Sponge, Wax Ecstatic
Speaking of Sponge, this post-butt-rock outfit from Detroit apparently had a lot more fuel left in the tank once the dust from the Empire Records soundtrack cleared and radio programmers forgot about the band's hit single "Plowed." Skip the lukewarm, Live-esque single "Have You Seen Mary" and go straight to the title track, which is the glorious sound of middle-aged men in embellished denim making a go of providing soundtrack filler for Vin Diesel movies.
Dave Matthews Band, Before These Crowded Streets
This is the last DMB album to net the legendary frat-rock group considerable radio play before it became the PG-rated jam band of choice for dudes with entry-level marketing jobs and one-too-many Patagonia jackets. "Halloween" and "The Stone" are good songs on record, and probably sound even better when you're a little stoned on the grassy hill of an amphitheater with your very average significant other.
Tori Amos, From the Choirgirl Hotel
We found Tori Amos' entire discography at the Everyday Music on Northeast Sandy for under $10, which is a perfect gift for that person in your life who'd rather strategically place feminist ephemera around his or her apartment than actually engage in any of sort of activism.
Third Eye Blind, Third Eye Blind
Stephen Jenkins is doing a commendable job chipping away at the heap of goodwill the hot-take economy has created for this recently canonized pop-rock classic since he doot-doot-dooted his way into our hearts 20 years ago, but no amount of pseudo-wokeness and celeb-rag shit-talking can ever take away just how good the last three songs on this record are.
Natalie Merchant, Tigerlily
Aspiring ingenues two decades her junior get a pass for making midtempo alt-country because it's what their daddy raised them on, yet the former frontwoman of 10,000 Maniacs remains forever unforgiven because you still hear "Carnival" every other time you wander the aisles of Safeway. It's not her fault. If making tender, accessible folk rock for adults is so wrong, why would Merchant ever want to be right?
Creeper Lagoon, Take Back the Universe and Give Me Yesterday
Dreamworks released this album in hopes of scoring a hit with Counting Crows and Wallflowers fans, but no one gave a shit about either of those bands in 2001. So the sophomore effort of this San Francisco bar band tanked. It's a shame, because the massive guitars on lead single "Wrecking Ball" and the heady, slow-burning closer "Keep From Moving" are '90s alt-rock at its absolute finest—a few years too late to get made fun of by Beavis and Butt-head, yet a few years too early for the "blog rock" boom. Sigh.
White Town, Women in Technology
The music industry was bloated and rife with iniquity in the late '90s, and few records are as exemplary of how bad it felt to plunk down almost $20 for just one good song than Women in Technology. File sharing and streaming services have since rendered this idea preposterous, which allows a neutral ear to finally be applied to what is, in actuality, a well-rounded lo-fi electro-pop record. It's too pleasant to write off just because the impossibly catchy single "Your Woman" is so obviously the best track—if only we hadn't had to learn the hard and expensive way the first time around.
Chris Isaak, Speak of the Devil
There's an inordinate number of Chris Isaak CDs taking up space in the bargain bins of Portland record stores. What prompted such an about-face in perceptions of this impeccably coiffed crooner's talents is anyone's guess, but damn, can this guy sing. Slap some reverb and tape hiss on this record's best tracks, and you're basically looking at a glossier version of early Kurt Vile. It's cause to believe that Isaak has much to gain by growing a beard and adopting an alter ego not too far afield from a burnout Chris Gaines.

The prospect of being able to "…come up with new learning, innovations, solutions to problems, and better ways to address…" our schools needs while avoiding the ongoing and sometimes disruptive "top-down intervention" (as cited in Bain, 2007, p. 43) is an exciting one. I don't have to think too hard to see that the six design principles might influence how I teach. For example, school-level schema seems applicable in the way that I handle the electronic book setup. Learning and using the same strategies as others may be more helpful than the way I'm currently setting up the e-book (it's the hard way). The same methods are used with most publishers in terms of setting dates, choosing which assignments will be used, and how to highlight and add/delete materials, so I can see this as a valuable principle. Simple rules made me chuckle. I tend to have reasonably complicated rubrics in my classes. In my mind, I'm making things clear, so that students can go step-by-step to complete a writing project. For the most part, this has been true. However, I have gone toward the more complicated to the degree that it may be time to simplify the rules of some assignments. In my class, I reason out that having precise guidelines can also protect my grading from scrutiny (and it has as students don't question when I take points off – it's clearly on the syllabus). Unfortunately, the benefits do not outweigh the learning curve. I spend considerable time covering the rubric and addressing some confused looks. I will be rethinking those structures.
Embedded design struck me less on a personal level and more on our department structures. While there are system-wide rules and beliefs, we have different practices (and most importantly beliefs) depending on departments. In my current position, I will be focusing on teaching practices, but I can see where it is highly essential to embed beliefs, incorporate actions, and integrate organizational beliefs into the teaching and learning designs (Bain, 2007, p. 49). The similarity of scale also takes me away from a personal level of change to a departmental issue – that is using "comparable methods and tools as they execute their respective roles" (p. 52). At first glance, the word automaton came to mind, but similarity may increase implementation integrity and help lead to long-term sustainability.
Emergent feedback is of interest to me because I'm transported to sitting in the office listening to my annual evaluation. The evaluation is the only feedback employees get outside of being contacted when a problem occurs. Feedback should be integrated (as Bain explains) in every aspect of the organization. It would be good to talk to ourselves more often outside of evaluations, grade reporting, and others. On a personal level, I will be exploring students helping to set their "…performance goals and engage in regular sharing about their growth toward these goals…" (p. 54). I have never really considered that since I go by the course goals/objectives.
The bottom-up approach in dispersed control speaks to me as the author claims that "…they permit the ready flow of feedback to all levels in the school" (p. 55). That's an exciting prospect that we (teachers) might be the initiators of communications that flow upward. I imagine the way our network of emails work and how that might look in that particular communication realm. That seems far out of reach when I consider this one. While I realize that this is far more complicated than sending emails – the dispersed control deals with networks and collaboration which can be a complicated process. Email is merely the first thing that came to mind. I think that one change that can occur (independent of a planning process that we don't have right now) is that teachers can collaborate more and send information up the ladder. It is unlikely that will change the current way things are done but could still be beneficial.
My favorite takeaway from this particular chapter is that "…capturing what works at one level and scaling it up…" (p. 59) may lead to effectively implementing programs/practices at the school level. This assertion gives me hope. Starting smaller usually is easier to manage and to maintain the integrity of implementations. As a future leader, I will keep that thought with me and pull it out when it's time to begin change.
On a personal note, I got more out of this chapter than I got out of some of the others. Of course, that may be because we were explicitly asked to think about personal changes. I feel like my "ah ha" moment was moments (plural instead of singular). I'd read one of the principles and think – yep, I need to work on that or that I need to know more about it. I touched on that in some of my post above.

Franklin Square Park Major Renovation Poised to Start; Expectations Very High
Published: May 12th, 2019
Accompanying images can be viewed starting on page 1 of the May 2019 issue pdf
By Larry Ray*
On March 26th when Mayor Muriel Bowser announced a renovation of downtown's Franklin Square Park, DC resident Tim and many other nearby neighbors, given that this project has been in the planning for five years, responded, "Again?"
A partnership between the National Parks Service (NPS) and the Downtown DC Business Improvement District (BID) will begin a $15.1 million renovation of the 4.79-acre historic park. Bounded by I, 14th, K, and 13th Streets, NW, the work is scheduled to start this Spring and be completed by the Summer of 2021. The BID has committed to an annual budget of $750,000 to meet the expenses needed to maintain the renovated and partly redesigned park as a welcoming to all urban oasis.
Despite periodic renovations, the park has not welcomed all for more than 40 years. During the 1970s and 1980s, it was known for crime, including prostitution. Residents and office and retail workers avoided lingering – even entering in the first place. During the 1990s and 2000s, the park also became known for homeless persons despite periodic renovations. Today, people rush through the park to get to the food trucks. Will the renovations change this park?
The Plan
The overall goal of the plan is to make the park a jewel, a destination place for all. Across 13th Street on the park's east side the redevelopment of the national historic landmark Franklin School building to house the Museum of the Word, scheduled to open in 2020, should help.
NPS supports efforts to revitalize the park as part of its Urban Agenda and is exploring ways in which to partner with the city to achieve these goals.
As stated on the BID's website, "A planning partnership was formed in 2012 between NPS, the District government and the DowntownDC Business Improvement District (BID) to transform the park and establish sustainable maintenance and operation of the park in perpetuity. The result of this planning effort, which included public outreach and stakeholder input, is a concept design and maintenance and operations plan for the park."
The designs call for public restrooms, café pavilion, gardens, plaza with spray fountains and upgraded lighting. The BID is expected to manage the day-to-day operations of the park.
With the DC Department of General Services (DGS) leading the park's revitalization undertaking, the design aspects are being realized through a unique collaboration with STUDIOS Architecture and DAVID RUBIN Land Collective. Also planned for the nearly five-acre park will be a new café, a re-imagined fountain, improved seating, widened pathways, new trees, and a garden for "all ages."
Federal Legislation Passed to Allow Partnership
In order for DC government to enter into this partnership with NPS, Congressional authorization was needed. And, with Senate passage on February 12, 2019 of DC Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton's House-passed bill of two years ago, no impediments remain.Now Delegate Norton is seeking one final step by formally requesting that the federal ownership of the park itself be ceded to the District.
How will the homeless issue that Has plagued the Park for decades?
Supporters of the renovation project are pinning their hopes on the new Day Services Center that opened in February in the lower level of the nearby New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, one block south. This DC $1.7 million-funded facility's "one-stop shopping" social services are provided by Pathways to Housing with laundry, kitchen, meals, showers, computers, housing help and employment assistance.
Franklin Park has a rich history. In 1832 the federal government purchased the square to preserve the spring that was there which fed water to the White House. Most people believe it was named after Benjamin Franklin, but there seems to be no verification of this. By 1872 the square consisted of winding paths, trees and a central fountain. In 1936 the park was redesigned by the Public Works Administration and the NPS.
In 1914 sculptor John J. Boyle's statue of Revolutionary War hero John Barry was installed. Some consider Barry to be the father of the US Navy.<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Barry_(naval_officer)> And 51 years earlier, in 1863, following the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, Frederick Douglas held a celebratory rally in this park.
Ward 2 Councilmember Jack Evans is optimistic:
"For years, I have worked hard to update parks throughout Ward 2 and the renovation of Franklin Square Park is the key to changing the dynamic of this area of Downtown. This park has so much potential to be a welcoming space for our residents and visitors to the area. Not only will renovations begin soon, an exciting new museum focusing on bringing people together through language will reinvigorate the empty Franklin School. This is what progress can look like when the District Government, the Federal Government and the National Park Service work together. Franklin Square is only at the beginning of a great renaissance, and I'm looking forward to seeing it completed."

Baltimore County police said the two 16-year-old boys were riding in a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse around 11:30 p.m. Friday when the car left the road and hit a tree in the 6900 block of Mount Vista Road near Gontrum Road in the Kingsville area.
Both boys were taken to Franklin Square Hospital, where they were pronounced dead. They were identified as Bel Air High School students Marvin Eudiel Hernandez and Ryan Thomas Harris.
Police said it could take weeks to determine the cause of the crash.
"The crash team is conducting a thorough investigation into this incident; however, the exact cause of this very tragic incident remains undetermined at this time," Baltimore County police Cpl. John Wachter said.
A memorial with pictures, stuffed animals, balloons and private messages marked the scene of the crash. According to tweets from students at Bel Air High School and the school's newspaper, there was a homecoming football game Friday night against Perryville with a homecoming dance on Saturday night.
Harford County Public School officials released a statement Monday afternoon, saying, "On Friday, the Bel Air High School community experienced the death of two students. Their passing has affected all of us very deeply and our hearts go out to their families and to all of those who have been affected by their passing."
"We appreciate the outpouring of support and understanding from the community as we focus our concern toward the well-being of our students as they learn to cope with this tragic loss. The most important thing we can do is to be supportive and encourage an open expression of feelings.
"We understand that there will be a variety of emotions and responses to what has occurred. Additional counselors, pupil personnel workers and school psychologists have joined the staff at Bel Air High School. They are speaking with students and the staff regarding this tragedy and their personal reactions to the event. They have been and will continue to be available to provide support through this difficult time.
"We will try to maintain as normal a routine and structure as the situation allows. We know that you will join us in our concern and sympathy for the families and thank you for your understanding and support."
Arrangements have been scheduled for Harris at Schimunek Funeral Home of Bel Air Inc. (610 W. MacPhail Road in Bel Air) on Thursday from 2-4 p.m. and 6-9 p.m.
A memorial Mass at the St. Margaret Church in Bel Air is scheduled on Friday at 1:30 p.m. The interment will be private.
Those who wish may make contributions in Ryan's name can do so by sending it to the Living Legacy Foundation, Attn. Ann Bromery, 1730 Twin Springs Road, Suite 200, Baltimore, MD, 21227.
Funeral arrangements for Hernandez are pending.

What is Choreography ?
The choreography in Salaam Namaste, Bunty and Babli, Dhoom and Lakshya made these films "rock" all the way to becoming hits. How many of us while listening to music tend to visualize the dance movement and would like to make a career of it ?
Indian choreographer Shiamak Davar had people dancing to his tunes by the end of his first musical show at Durban in August this year. Shiamak's "Spirit of Dance", performed at the International Convention Centre was a spectacular symphony of sound, colour and light with the dancers proving the show was all about timing, colourful costumes and fancy footwork.
Choreography promotes the expression of ideas through dance, movement languages and compositional forms on the body and between bodies. A choreographer makes a dance based on music or a synopsis (a writing of what occurs in the dance).
Choreographers must have knowledge of all of the different types of dance. Good choreographers "can see" the dance in their head as soon as they hear the music.
Fashion Choreography
What is Fashion Choreography ?
If you want the glam look at a fashion show, how about integrating a choreography to highlight the clothes/ costumes on display ? This not only draws attention to the clothes the model is presenting but adds appeal to the show.
Fashion choreography is not about dance but about the perfect catwalk. The main duty of a Fashion choreographer is to train models to walk on the ramp with music in an appealing manner. Fashion festivals like the Lakme Fashion week take the expert help of Fashion Choreographers to make a lasting impression on the current fashion scene.
What do I have to do ?
Fashion choreographers teach the models to walk along with the music that is to be played for a fashion show or an event, in a way that not only looks aesthetically appealing but also glamorous and chic. It should not distract audiences from the clothes or accessory that is being displayed. Basically, the models and their movements...

Performing Arts
What is Performing Arts ?
Need a live band, percussionist or original performing artist for your next event? Or maybe a comedian, circus artist or fire twirler. You can hire a performing artist to liven up your next corporate event, or connect with actors, theatre artists and singers and make your production a memorable event.
Theater and dance are two of the world's major performing arts. And both have a deeper, more therapeutic and psychological impact than was first highlighted in the ancient texts of Bharat Muni's Natya Shastra and Aristotle's Poetics. Theater is as old as civilization and is found in all cultures. In fact, the roots of drama are religious. It was a sacred part of community life, and their entire belief system.
Performing arts include acrobatics, comedy, dance, magic, music, opera, film, juggling, marching arts, such as brass bands, and theatre. Artists who participate in these arts in front of an audience are called performers, including actors, comedians, dancers, musicians, and singers. Performing arts are also supported by workers in related fields, such as

Showtime 7:00 PM
Doors open at 5:30 for a pre-show party.
Red Circle Sponsor: Susan Beaven
Have you ever wondered what really goes on during war, especially for women? Laura Westley, a New Port Richey native, West Point graduate, former Army officer and Iraq War Veteran, has created a musical comedy show to answer that very question. Come watch her perform with members of the Gypsy Stage Repertory Theater (based in Dunedin) in a one-of-a-kind show that answers questions like – What happens when an attractive, naïve, virginal, young Army girl deploys to war with thousands of eager, testosterone-laden men? Be regaled with true stories of Laura's militarily influenced coming-of-age, starting with West Point – or what she fondly describes as the world's biggest sausage fest. Then hear all about how the Iraq war ironically catalyzed her own sexual liberation, after being religiously repressed for her entire life. War Virgin is also a story of triumph and redemption over the demand and need to be perfect, which started in early childhood.
A portion of proceeds from ticket sales will go to a local suicide prevention charity in memory of Lieutenant Christine Crocker, a dear friend of War Virgin who lost her life in this tragic manner.
Laura is also writing a memoir entitled, War Virgin and is devoted to teaching the public about the often overlooked, human and funny sides to serving in the military. She hopes her story of liberation will inspire everyone to embark on their own journeys of liberation.
A limited number of Studio Member Tickets will be accepted for this event, please RSVP in advance to 727-895-6620
War Virgin is also being presented at the following locations in addition to the show at The Studio@620:

Giving crisis emergency treatment is vital
In wherever of work as an individual wellness mentor, it's essential to recall that notwithstanding helping customers get into shape, you'll additionally be liable for their security during your exercises together, and for cultivating energy.
What instruction or affirmation will I be an athletic mentor?
You can turn into an individual athletic mentor with a testament, a two-year partner's degree or four-year four-year certification in wellbeing and wellness. Both an accreditation and a partner's degree furnish you with adequate preparation to have a vocation as a wellness coach; the bit of leeway to having a four-year certification is that it can raise your odds of progressing to the executive's positions.

RADES (AfroBasket 2015) - Sunday is AfroBasket 2015 Final day, and Nigeria and Angola will battle out for the top prize of the competition on in Rades, Tunisia.
It will be a re-match of the AfroBasket 2003 Final, in which the Angolans topped the Nigerians, 86-65, in Alexandria, Egypt, to secure qualification for the 2004 Athen Olympic Games.
The winner of Sunday's Final between these two teams will secure direct qualification for the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, while the team that finishes second - along with those that finish third and fourth - will claim places in the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament.
Both Nigeria and Angola reached the Final with 5-1 marks after upsetting Senegal as well as hosts Tunisia respectively in Saturday's Semi-Finals.
Although Angola currently hold a 9-0 head-to-head advantage over Nigeria dating back to 1987, they will need to excel to retain the continental title secured in 2013.
After all this is a match-up between the 11-time African champions Angola against a team often described as one of the most talented in the competition.
Meanwhile, Nigeria, who are yet to win a continental crown, enter the Final with a better overall rating.
Will Voigt's team has the tournament's highest scoring rate with an average of 84 points per game.
They also enjoy the best field goal percentage (44.7 percent) of the competition.
The Nigerians are the second tallest team in the tournament - after Senegal - and clear the boards better than any other team with 46.5 rebounds per game.
Chamberlain Oguchi, the team's leading scorer (16.0 points per game) who faced the Angolans in 2009, should remain as relevant for the Western Africans.
The Angolans' aggressive defense could play a part, but having to go up against athletic players such as Olaseni Lawal, Alade Aminu and Al-Farouq Aminu could prove problematic for the title holders.
If statistics are anything to go by, then Nigeria head into the Final as favourites, but the Angolans' mentality of going for a 12th continental title may boost their confidence.
Asked about the possibility of winning the championship, Angola's Yanick Moreira said: "That's the reason we are here."
It remains to be seen if Africa crowns a new champions on Sunday or if it will celebrate a successful title defence.

We had an interesting opportunity to help Baffin, Inc. address its footwear and apparel point-of-purchase display and merchandising challenges and opportunities within multiple channels of distribution in North America and potentially in Europe. Baffin Inc. is a privately-held Canadian company with a core competence in technically advanced, high-quality, innovative, and fashionable outdoor footwear and performance apparel. The Company designs and manufactures some of the world's best-performing cold-weather and full-season footwear and apparel products marketed under a variety of Baffin® brands (Baffin® Polar Proven, PUR®, and PACKables®) for the outdoor and industrial market segments.
Baffin Inc.'s objective is to become the global leader in high-performance cold-, wet-, and all-weather footwear and cold-weather apparel and accessories by combining quality, comfort, aesthetics, fashion, and value to customers. Baffin sells its product lines through a diverse set of distribution channels in the outdoor and industrial market segments.
Baffin Inc. was aware that its approach to POP displays and in-store merchandising was ineffective and in need of a major overhaul to help the Company achieve its global leadership aspirations. After analyzing Baffin Inc's product line and the competitive landscape in the outdoor footwear, outdoor apparel, outdoor apparel accessories (such as cold-weather gloves and socks), and industrial footwear markets, RICH LTD. designed a comprehensive retail store display solution that would help to create a distinctive competitive advantage for Baffin Inc.
Keeping in mind the wide range of retail settings and distribution channels, as well as the distinct characteristics of the outdoor vs. the industrial markets, RICH LTD. created a menu of store fixture solutions that could meet almost any need. We began with a wall fixture for the industrial footwear market. We designed an 8-ft. section which incorporated back panel graphics, curved PVC header sign graphics, die-cut side flag signs, and custom-branded shoe shelves- all elements of which were designed to build the Baffin Inc. name as the global brand leader.
We then designed two different variations of an industrial footwear tower that could complement the wall fixture. Both fixtures were designed with a metal base and frame and, like the wall fixture, featured prominent Baffin Inc. graphics. These footwear glorifiers also utilized the same branded shoe shelves as the wall fixture.
An important element of the design was the interchangeability of the shoe shelves since we believed it was important to share as many components across fixtures as possible. A close-up of the multi-material industrial shoe shelf is shown below.
Part of our design strategy was to use the freestanding shoe tower as a complementary fixture to the wall fixture to help draw in customers. You can see below how the two fixtures create synergy.
For the outdoor market, we wanted to keep a similar look and feel as the footwear displays we designed for the industrial market, but we needed to incorporate design elements that would appeal to a different shopper and meet the needs of a wide variety of outdoor retailers. We began with the wall display as the anchor fixture in the outdoor fixture set. Our design for the 8-ft. outdoor wall fixture was graphic intensive but also incorporated reclaimed wood features to create a rustic feel. The header, for example, was designed with a reclaimed wood panel and dimensional letters to draw attention to the Baffin Inc. brand. We added reclaimed wood benches not only for functionality but also to help keep the stock boxes organized. The branded shoe shelf was similar in structure to the industrial shoe shelf but had distinctive design features of its own.
Similar to our fixture strategy for the outdoor market, we designed a complementary shoe tower which acted as a product glorifier. The shoe tower featured a metal base and frame with branded reclaimed wood accents , back panel graphics, and branded shoe shelves.
As in the case of the industrial market, the outdoor shoe shelf could be used with the shoe tower and the wall fixture.
The wood bench was designed to work independently as a functional seat and also as a part of the overall fixture set.
As shown below the shoe tower, bench seating and the wall fixture presented a unifying merchandising approach to the outdoor market customer.
For stores that might not be able to devote 8 feet of wall space to Baffin Inc., we designed two different freestanding shoe bunkers that could display footwear, merchandise accessories, build the brand, and also hold footwear inventory.
We created a variation of the above shoe bunker by changing the design features of the header sign.
As a part of the fixture set, we also designed a counter glorifier display to build the brand, educate the customer, and create awareness of the other Baffin Inc. fixtures in the store. This point-of-purchase counter display incorporated a lot of the same design elements as the floor fixtures we designed for the outdoor market.
Finally, we designed a few different versions of freestanding mobile panel displays that could be used as 1-sided or 2-sided fixtures. These fixtures not only incorporated many of the design elements of the other outdoor fixtures we have discussed, but they included accessories such as waterfall arms for Baffin Inc. apparel accessories as well as incorporating the universal shoe shelves we designed. These mobile fixtures were an important part of the overall fixture mix since they could meet the diverse needs of many retailers.
This comprehensive POP display and store fixture program provided all of the elements to enable Baffin Inc. to address its display and merchandising challenges in both the industrial and outdoor market.

Boulder, CO -- Tendril has completed a Series B round of funding worth $12 million that will fuel the company's rapid expansion in providing energy management solutions to the utility industry. The lead investor in this round is RRE Ventures in New York, who joins Vista Ventures, Access Venture Partners and Appian Ventures as major investors in Tendril. This investment follows Tendril's announcement earlier this quarter regarding the beta release of the Tendril Energy Management System (EMS), which facilitates dialogue between consumers and utilities for more intelligent, consumer-centric control of energy consumption.
"RRE invested in Tendril because it provides critical technology for energy management and because its open-standards approach is exactly what companies in the utility industry are looking for," said Stuart Ellman, Managing Partner of RRE Ventures. "A number of trends such as rising energy costs and environmental awareness are driving dramatic growth in the deployment of technology to manage electricity demand and usage. Tendril's message of open standards and its consumer-centric approach to solving this problem has solid traction with major utilities that are planning large-scale rollouts of residential energy management solutions, and we expect continued progress based on the strength of Tendril's EMS product."
"There was very strong interest in this round of investment, and we felt that RRE would be an ideal partner because of its amazing track record in helping startups reach their potential," said Adrian Tuck, CEO of Tendril. "Tendril is experiencing very strong customer-led growth, and this funding combined with RRE's expertise will go toward building out the infrastructure to deliver the Tendril Energy Management System to an increasing number of utility companies."
Tendril's unique, user-centric approach to energy management contrasts strongly with previous, centrally-driven efforts to control energy consumption in residential markets. By providing consumers with real-time information about their consumption and by innovative approaches such as real-time benchmarking and verifiable pay-for-performance programs, Tendril is committed to helping utilities and their customers reduce consumption and improve customer service.
The Tendril Energy Management System is a mixture of software and in-home hardware that has an open architecture to provide seamless integration to any ZigBee Smart Energy products for the home. It improves operational efficiency for utilities by engaging residential consumers in a dialogue about reducing load both continuously and at critical peak times, and it provides consumers with real-time information about energy consumption in a variety of formats including in-home displays, a web portal and smart thermostats. In addition, the Tendril Energy Management System offers a full, open API to integrate with existing back office enterprise systems including meter management and billing systems as well as load monitoring and security applications.
About Tendril
Tendril is bringing 21st century energy efficiency to the energy industry by providing technology that enables an important dialogue between consumers and their energy providers, allowing them to manage consumption and supply of energy in a smarter, more efficient way. Tendril's technology plays a critical role in creating an open, extensible, standards-based, end-to-end energy ecosystem that connects consumer devices (like thermostats) to utilities' back office applications, enabling consumers and energy companies to understand and generate smart energy for life.

Generally, the faster the wind, the more dangerous
the storm. As wind speed increases, the wind can
pick up and carry heavier and heavier objects as
you know if you've ever tried to wear a hat on a
windy day! Meterologists rate storms accordingly:
Tropical depressions have windspeeds of
less than 39 miles per hour (mph) Tropical
storms have windspeeds between 40 & 73 mph
Hurricanes are the biggest and most dangerous
storms, with windspeeds greater than 74 mph.
Other names for hurricanes are typhoons and
tropical cyclones. Hurricanes are
separated into five categories, with Category 1
hurricanes the weakest and Category 5 hurricanes
the strongest with windspeeds of 156 mph or
greater! The mainland United States has
only been struck twice by Category 5 hurricanes:
the Florida Key hurricane in 1935, and Hurricane
Camille in 1969. Hurricane Andrew, which hit
Florida in 1992, was the third-strongest hurricane
in US history. Sometimes, however, storms
that aren't blowing very fast can still cause a
lot of damage if they bring a lot of rain. This
was the case for Hurricane Mitch last year, which
was only a tropical storm by the time it made
landfall, but rained so much in Honduras and
Guatemala that over 10,000 people were killed by
floods and landslides. The invention of
weather satellites and sophisticated computer
models now allow us track and predict the paths of
major hurricanes, making it more possible to warn
people in time to evacuate.

Ryuichi Kiyonari celebrated the announcement of his one-year contract extension with Buildbase BMW by winning race one at Donington Park. The Japanese rider came out on top in a thrilling head-to-head with Shane Byrne which was ultimately decided at the very last corner.
The euphoria of qualifying soon disappeared for John Hopkins who was swallowed up at the start before crashing at the Melbourne loop on lap six. This left Byrne to set the pace at the front with Kiyonari keeping a watching brief in second ahead of Josh Brookes, Stuart Easton and Tommy Bridewell. Easton was particularly keen to make progress in his last-ditch attempt to snatch a showdown spot but he was soon relegated to fifth by Bridewell, all-but ending his title hopes.
Kiyonari made his move at the Foggy Esses on lap twelve but having noticed his rival had no more pace than him, Byrne chose to move straight back past at the Old Hairpin shortly afterwards. The pair continued to trade blows with Byrne putting a second move on the BMW at the Old Hairpin only to be forced aside by an uncompromising Kiyonari at Starkeys Bridge but the outcome was still in question heading into the final lap.
Byrne appeared to have too much work to do as they exited the Melbourne Loop but as he admitted afterwards, the Rapid Solicitors Kawasaki man wasn't going to sit back and charged up the inside into Goddards. 'Shakey' did make it to the apex first but overshot the left-hander, opening the door for Kiyonari to claim his fifth win of the season.
Tommy Bridewell overhauled his teammate Josh Brookes in the battle of the Milwaukee Yamahas to take third while Stuart Easton's showdown challenge officially ended despite finishing fifth, Chris Walker's eleventh spot enough to secure him a place in the top six. Dan Linfoot could only manage eighth behind Josh Waters and Peter Hickman but like Walker, the Quattro Plant rider had bagged the points he needed to reach the title showdown.

(Continued from Part 1)
The House of Morgan financed half the US war effort, while receiving commissions for lining up contractors like GE, Du Pont, US Steel, Kennecott and ASARCO. All were Morgan clients. Morgan also financed the British Boer War in South Africa and the Franco-Prussian War. The 1919 Paris Peace Conference was presided over by Morgan, which led both German and Allied reconstruction efforts. [11]
In the 1930's populism resurfaced in America after Goldman Sachs, Lehman Bank and others profited from the Crash of 1929. [12] House Banking Committee Chairman Louis McFadden (D-NY) said of the Great Depression, "It was no accident. It was a carefully contrived occurrence…The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here so they might emerge as rulers of us all".
Sen. Gerald Nye (D-ND) chaired a munitions investigation in 1936. Nye concluded that the House of Morgan had plunged the US into WWI to protect loans and create a booming arms industry. Nye later produced a document titled The Next War, which cynically referred to "the old goddess of democracy trick", through which Japan could be used to lure the US into WWII.
In 1937 Interior Secretary Harold Ickes warned of the influence of "America's 60 Families". Historian Ferdinand Lundberg later penned a book of the exact same title. Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas decried, "Morgan influence…the most pernicious one in industry and finance today."
Jack Morgan responded by nudging the US towards WWII. Morgan had close relations with the Iwasaki and Dan families – Japan's two wealthiest clans – who have owned Mitsubishi and Mitsui, respectively, since the companies emerged from 17th Century shogunates. When Japan invaded Manchuria, slaughtering Chinese peasants at Nanking, Morgan downplayed the incident. Morgan also had close relations with Italian fascist Benito Mussolini, while German Nazi Dr. Hjalmer Schacht was a Morgan Bankliaison during WWII. After the war Morgan representatives met with Schacht at the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) in Basel, Switzerland. [13]
The House of Rockefeller
BIS is the most powerful bank in the world, a global central bank for the Eight Families who control the private central banks of almost all Western and developing nations. The first President of BIS was Rockefeller banker Gates McGarrah- an official at Chase Manhattan and the Federal Reserve. McGarrah was the grandfather of former CIA director Richard Helms. The Rockefellers- like the Morgans- had close ties to London. David Icke writes in Children of the Matrix, that the Rockefellers and Morgans were just "gofers" for the European Rothschilds. [14]
BIS is owned by the Federal Reserve, Bank of England, Bank of Italy, Bank of Canada, Swiss National Bank, Nederlandsche Bank, Bundesbank and Bank of France.
Historian Carroll Quigley wrote in his epic book Tragedy and Hope that BIS was part of a plan, "to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole…to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert by secret agreements."
The US government had a historical distrust of BIS, lobbying unsuccessfully for its demise at the 1944 post-WWII Bretton Woods Conference. Instead the Eight Families' power was exacerbated, with the Bretton Woods creation of the IMF and the World Bank. The US Federal Reserve only took shares in BIS in September 1994. [15]
BIS holds at least 10% of monetary reserves for at least 80 of the world's central banks, the IMF and other multilateral institutions. It serves as financial agent for international agreements, collects information on the global economy and serves as lender of last resort to prevent global financial collapse.
BIS promotes an agenda of monopoly capitalist fascism. It gave a bridge loan to Hungary in the 1990's to ensure privatization of that country's economy. It served as conduit for Eight Families funding of Adolf Hitler- led by the Warburg's J. Henry Schroeder and Mendelsohn Bank of Amsterdam. Many researchers assert that BIS is at the nadir of global drug money laundering. [16]
It is no coincidence that BIS is headquartered in Switzerland, favorite hiding place for the wealth of the global aristocracy and headquarters for the P-2 Italian Freemason's Alpina Lodge and Nazi International. Other institutions which the Eight Families control include the World Economic Forum, the International Monetary Conference and the World Trade Organization.
Bretton Woods was a boon to the Eight Families. The IMF and World Bank were central to this "new world order". In 1944 the first World Bank bonds were floated by Morgan Stanley and First Boston. The French Lazard family became more involved in House of Morgan interests. Lazard Freres- France's biggest investment bank- is owned by the Lazard and David-Weill families- old Genoese banking scions represented by Michelle Davive. A recent Chairman and CEO of Citigroup was Sanford Weill.
In 1968 Morgan Guaranty launched Euro-Clear, a Brussels-based bank clearing system for Eurodollar securities. It was the first such automated endeavor. Some took to calling Euro-Clear "The Beast". Brussels serves as headquarters for the new European Central Bank and for NATO. In 1973 Morgan officials met secretly in Bermuda to illegally resurrect the old House of Morgan, twenty years beforeGlass Steagal Act was repealed. Morgan and the Rockefellers provided the financial backing for Merrill Lynch, boosting it into the Big 5 of US investment banking. Merrill is now part of Bank of America.
John D. Rockefeller used his oil wealth to acquire Equitable Trust, which had gobbled up several large banks and corporations by the 1920's. The Great Depression helped consolidate Rockefeller's power. His Chase Bank merged with Kuhn Loeb's Manhattan Bank to form Chase Manhattan, cementing a long-time family relationship. The Kuhn-Loeb's had financed – along with Rothschilds – Rockefeller's quest to become king of the oil patch. National City Bank of Cleveland provided John D. with the money needed to embark upon his monopolization of the US oil industry. The bank was identified in Congressional hearings as being one of three Rothschild-owned banks in the US during the 1870's, when Rockefeller first incorporated as Standard Oil of Ohio. [17]
One Rockefeller Standard Oil partner was Edward Harkness, whose family came to control Chemical Bank. Another was James Stillman, whose family controlled Manufacturers Hanover Trust. Both banks have merged under the JP Morgan Chase umbrella. Two of James Stillman's daughters married two of William Rockefeller's sons. The two families control a big chunk of Citigroup as well. [18]
In the insurance business, the Rockefellers control Metropolitan Life, Equitable Life, Prudential and New York Life. Rockefeller banks control 25% of all assets of the 50 largest US commercial banks and 30% of all assets of the 50 largest insurance companies. [19] Insurance companies- the first in the US was launched by Freemasons through their Woodman's of America- play a key role in the Bermuda drug money shuffle.
Companies under Rockefeller control include Exxon Mobil, Chevron Texaco, BP Amoco, Marathon Oil, Freeport McMoran, Quaker Oats, ASARCO, United, Delta, Northwest, ITT, International Harvester, Xerox, Boeing, Westinghouse, Hewlett-Packard, Honeywell, International Paper, Pfizer, Motorola, Monsanto, Union Carbide and General Foods.
The Rockefeller Foundation has close financial ties to both Ford and Carnegie Foundations. Other family philanthropic endeavors include Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, General Education Board, Rockefeller University and the University of Chicago- which churns out a steady stream of far right economists as apologists for international capital, including Milton Friedman.
The family owns 30 Rockefeller Plaza, where the national Christmas tree is lighted every year, and Rockefeller Center. David Rockefeller was instrumental in the construction of the World Trade Center towers. The main Rockefeller family home is a hulking complex in upstate New York known as Pocantico Hills. They also own a 32-room 5th Avenue duplex in Manhattan, a mansion in Washington, DC, Monte Sacro Ranch in Venezuela, coffee plantations in Ecuador, several farms in Brazil, an estate at Seal Harbor, Maine and resorts in the Caribbean, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. [20]
The Dulles and Rockefeller families are cousins. Allen Dulles created the CIA, assisted the Nazis, covered up the Kennedy hit from his Warren Commission perch and struck a deal with the Muslim Brotherhood to create mind-controlled assassins. [21]
Brother John Foster Dulles presided over the phony Goldman Sachs trusts before the 1929 stock market crash and helped his brother overthrow governments in Iran and Guatemala. Both were Skull & Bones, Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) insiders and 33rd Degree Masons. [22]
The Rockefellers were instrumental in forming the depopulation-oriented Club of Rome at their family estate in Bellagio, Italy. Their Pocantico Hills estate gave birth to the Trilateral Commission. The family is a major funder of the eugenics movement which spawned Hitler, human cloning and the current DNA obsession in US scientific circles.
John Rockefeller Jr. headed the Population Council until his death. [23] His namesake son is a Senator from West Virginia. Brother Winthrop Rockefeller was Lieutenant Governor of Arkansas and remains the most powerful man in that state. In an October 1975 interview with Playboy magazine, Vice-President Nelson Rockefeller- who was also Governor of New York- articulated his family's patronizing worldview, "I am a great believer in planning- economic, social, political, military, total world planning."
But of all the Rockefeller brothers, it is Trilateral Commission (TC) founder and Chase Manhattan Chairman David who has spearheaded the family's fascist agenda on a global scale. He defended the Shah of Iran, the South African apartheid regime and the Chilean Pinochet junta. He was the biggest financier of the CFR, the TC and (during the Vietnam War) the Committee for an Effective and Durable Peace in Asia- a contract bonanza for those who made their living off the conflict.
Nixon asked him to be Secretary of Treasury, but Rockefeller declined the job, knowing his power was much greater at the helm of the Chase. Author Gary Allen writes in The Rockefeller File that in 1973, "David Rockefeller met with twenty-seven heads of state, including the rulers of Russia and Red China."
Following the 1975 Nugan Hand Bank/CIA coup against Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam, his British Crown-appointed successor Malcolm Fraser sped to the US, where he met with President Gerald Ford after conferring with David Rockefeller. [24]

Greatness exists in Nigeria is a book by Dominic Chukwudubem. See below a brief summary of what the book is all about.
Most times, we are saddled with various questions that bother our minds as Africans. Questions such as, what is the proof of greatness in Nigeria? How can we ascertain the level of greatness in Nigeria? Why should we say Nigeria is great?
These questions have thrown the mind of many Nigerians into confusion and chaos. Some persons are of the opinion that Nigeria is not great since we are not experiencing any form of growth economically. While others may say, we have no basic amenities and corruption is like the air we breathe in Nigeria. However, we cannot deny the fact that these things do exist, but it is high time for Nigerians and Africans to look inward and discover that, we are the greatness we need and this greatness can be transferred to our great country Nigeria.
Having pondered and carried out various researches, I have discovered that Nigeria is really a great country and there are various sectors in Nigeria that manifest this greatness. But, we need every Nigerian to put hands together so that we can transform the various sectors that are not functioning effectively and make them function.
My major aim of writing this book is to help most Nigerians realize that indeed Nigeria is a great country. Also, we should focus on the positive sides of this great country and show other nations that greatness exists in our nation Nigeria.
In this book, we are made to become aware of our great history and how rich this history is to us. It has been said that no nation can move forward without that a recap of her history. Same goes for Nigeria. There is need for all Nigerians to become aware of their great history and see how this great country has strived to become what she is presently. The younger generations also need to have certain knowledge of the historical background of this great country called Nigeria, in order for them to understand where they are coming from and where they are heading to.
Lessons in this book can be adapted to not just Nigeria but to other African countries as there is greatness in Nigeria and Africa at large.
This book is thus highly recommended to all.
