Authorities: 4 dead in California shooting spree
Updated On: Feb 19 2013 12:25:50 PM PST
A chaotic shooting spree through Orange County, Calif., left four people dead early Tuesday, including the shooter, and two injured before the man stopped and shot himself to death in a stolen car, police said.
There were multiple crime scenes in Tustin and Orange and many more victims who were shot at but unhurt, said Tustin Lt. Paul Garaven.
The shootings began at 4:45 a.m. when deputies responding to a call found a female shot multiple times in a house in Ladera Ranch, said Orange County sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino. The city is in the southern part of the suburban county about 30 miles south of Los Angeles.
From 5:30 a.m. to 5:55 a.m., Tustin police received police reports of shootings in several locations, Tustin police Supervisor Dave Kanoti.
The first call that came in was at Red Hill Avenue and Interstate 5. Police arrived and determined a carjacking had occurred and that victim was uninjured. An innocent bystander who was shot by gunfire was taken to a hospital, Garaven said.
The next call was at State Route 55 and McFadden Avenue. Another carjacking occurred and that victim died, Garaven said.
The last call was about a man with a gun, he said, at Edinger Avenue east of the 55. An officer arrived and found two more victims - one dead and the other injured.
Officers located the man and followed him into the city of Orange, Garaven said. "When they tried to stop, he killed himself in the car," Garaven said.
The suspect is a male, although Garaven couldn't confirm his age. He didn't have the sexes of all the victims.
The lieutenant said the gunman succeeded in stealing a vehicle at each carjacking.
"There have been other people coming forward saying they were shot at or their cars were shot at," he said but so far none had reported any serious injury.
The conditions of the wounded victims were unknown.
A spokeswoman for the California Highway Patrol said they didn't have any active crime scenes on the freeway but the southbound 55 McFadden Avenue off-ramp would be closed until further notice.
Tustin is about 35 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles.
The motive for the shootings is still unclear and it's also unclear if the victims knew each other or the shooter, Amormino said.
"I do not believe any of the victims are related to each other. It might have been a random thing," he said. "We just don't know."
Authorities were processing six crime scenes across the county.

Reporter walks — briefly — in boots of 9/11 firefighters
With the assistance of Nashua Fire Lt. Bill Campbell, New Hampshire Union Leader reporter Paul Feely puts on 60 pounds of firefighter gear. (Bruce Taylor/Union Leader)
Sweating after he reaches the top of the 20-story Brady Sullivan Plaza building Sunday in Manchester, New Hampshire Union Leader reporter Paul Feely gets a preview of the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb set for Oct. 6. Firefighters from across the state will take part in the fundraiser and tribute to the 343 firefighters killed in the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. (Bruce Taylor/Union Leader)
Nashua Fire Lt. Bill Campbell, coordinator of the Oct. 6 New Hampshire 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb, met me at the tower Sunday morning for a practice run of 40 stories. Campbell provided a full set of firefighter turnout gear — boots, jacket, pants, helmet and tank apparatus, weighing approximately 60 pounds. Campbell set the mood by describing the conditions firefighters faced on 9/11 at the World Trade Center towers.
Next Sunday, hundreds of firefighters, other emergency responders, families and civilians will walk the stairs 5 1/2 times in the third annual climb, representing the 110 flights of stairs in the twin towers. The event is a fundraiser for the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and pays tribute to the 343 firefighters killed on Sept. 11, 2001 — many while ascending the twin towers' stairs trying to rescue civilians trapped on the upper floors.
Another 10 steps. Is it possible we're only at the 10th floor? A short pause for breath. At 20 stories, I gasped for air and took in the view of the Millyard and the city beyond.
Those wishing to contribute to this year's event, either by volunteering their time or through a donation, can contact Campbell at email@example.com. For more information or to register for the climb, visit www.nh9-11stairclimb.org.

Question & Answers
Transferring food after gaining last island
I now have the last island. But cannot access food icon in the zeppelin as there are to many icons. I can't swipe to move them and the food icon is just enough off the screen that I cannot access it?
Answer from: Zia
I had the same problem with sending food to Marble Fiord. Thanks to your question & observation, I did not realize that the food icon was hidden to the very left if the first visible icon. I took a chance & tapped on that spot & I was able to successfully send the 200 units of food. Perhaps this may work for you as well.
Answer from: Aunt meme
I have been successful by turning the iPad upside down and then sliding my finger from the outside over where the food icon used to be.

ABSTRACT: This paper investigates power allocation for reliable downlink transmission in cellular networks subject to quality-ofservice (QoS) constraints. The reliability of data transmissions is assured by hybrid automatic repeat request protocol with incremental redundancy (HARQ-IR). By developing and evaluating the effective throughput of the HARQ-IR protocol for the downlink transmission under buffer-limited QoS constraints, we propose a novel adaptive power allocation algorithm to efficiently exploit the available resources when only limited channel state information (CSI) is available.

ABSTRACT: This paper addresses the Smart Gateway diversity scheme to be employed in future High Throughput Satellite Systems (HTS) at Ka, Q/V bands or above. The availability of a network of N gateways is presented with P redundant and with N active multiplexed gateways. A new time switched architecture is compared with the more conventional frequency division system for the N-active scheme but retaining transparent satellite transponders. In addition, resource allocation algorithms are compared, end to end, which maximize the throughput and balance the traffic amongst the user beams for gateways links degraded by rain. The time switched gateway approach allows simplifies satellite payloads and reduced ground segment size and hence cost.IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications 10/2014; 13(10):5411 - 5426.
Article: On the Joint Beamforming and Power Control in Cellular Systems: Algorithm and Stochastic Model[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The increasing demand for mobile communications has led to a spectrum shortage that severely limits the expansion of cellular systems. An attractive approach to cope with this problem is to use beamforming techniques for improving the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), which in turn allows reducing the transmission power and increasing the system capacity. In this context, a novel approach for joint beamforming and power control in cellular systems is discussed. Regarding the beamforming, an adaptive algorithm is devised aiming to overcome an important implementation challenge of the constrained stochastic gradient (CSG) and improved CSG (ICSG) algorithms, namely the requirement to estimate each interfering signal individually. The proposed beamforming algorithm, called adaptive-projection CSG (AP-CSG), provides both enhanced SINR performance and reduced computational burden as compared with the standard CSG algorithms. Concerning the power control, a real-time algorithm designed to operate jointly with the AP-CSG is also developed, which allows reducing the transmission power while maintaining acceptable SINR levels. Moreover, a stochastic model for the proposed joint beamforming and power control algorithm is derived, allowing the prediction of its behavior accurately. Numerical simulation results are shown, confirming the effectiveness of the new algorithm and the accuracy of the proposed model.IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications 09/2014;

ABSTRACT: In this paper, we strive to improve the energy efficiency (EE) of downlink base station (BS) cooperative transmission systems by switching off some BSs and antennas and allocating power to the users according to the required data rate and channel of each user. To show the potential of EE gain, we first propose an optimal dynamic switching off scheme using instantaneous channel information that maximizes the EE under per-user data rate and per-BS power constraints. To provide a feasible scheme for practical systems, we proceed to propose a semi-dynamic scheme where the BS-antenna operation pattern selection is based on average channel gains. Low complexity iterative algorithms are provided to find solutions for the dynamic and semi-dynamic strategies. Simulation results with typical circuit power consumption show that the semi-dynamic scheme performs close to the dynamic scheme and both schemes provide a substantial EE gain over the scheme with all antennas at all BSs active, when the data rate requirement is low. By comparing the overall power consumption for the systems of two extreme cases in deploying the active antennas, we find that the scheme only switching off BSs is more cost-effective in terms of energy than the scheme switching off antennas when the data rate requirement is low and the number of active antennas far exceeds that of the users.IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications 09/2014; 13(9):5183-5195.

ABSTRACT: MANETs are experiencing unstoppable growth due to their decentralized topology and their easy and low-cost deployment. The dynamic nature of MANETs entails the use of appropriate routing protocols to obtain good performance in the services supported by the network; even more if these services present tough temporal requirements, such as multimedia or VoIP services. One routing protocol to which notable research effort has been devoted is the BATMAN protocol, which proposes an interesting paradigm avoiding the explicit interchange of routing information among nodes. In this paper, we focus on evaluating the performance of BATMAN supporting VoIP traffic on low power-consumption nodes, from a Quality of Experience (QoE) point of view. Specifically, we evaluate the impact on BATMAN performance of 1) the PHY layer, by employing a fading characterization of the transmission channel; 2) the number and density of ad-hoc nodes; and 3) node mobility. All the results obtained for BATMAN are compared with those attained by using the widely used OLSR routing protocol. From the results, we conclude that neither BATMAN nor OLSR in their respective current implementations are suitable enough for VoIP traffic support in MANETs composed of energy-saving nodes.IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications 09/2014; 13(9):4947 - 4958.

ABSTRACT: WiFi offloading is regarded as one of the most promising techniques to deal with the explosive data increase in cellular networks due to its high data transmission rate and low requirement on devices. In this paper, we investigate the mobile data offloading problem through a third-party WiFi access point (AP) for a cellular mobile system. From the cellular operator's perspective, by assuming a usage-based charging model, we formulate the problem as a utility maximization problem. In particular, we consider three scenarios: (i) successive interference cancellation (SIC) available at both the base station (BS) and the AP; (ii) SIC available at neither the BS nor the AP; (iii) SIC available at only the BS. For (i), we show that the utility maximization problem can be solved by considering its relaxation problem, and we prove that our proposed data offloading scheme is near-optimal when the number of users is large. For (ii), we prove that with high probability the optimal solution is One-One-Association, i.e., one user connects to the BS and one user connects to the AP. For (iii), we show that with high probability there is at most one user connecting to the AP, and all the other users connect to the BS. By comparing these three scenarios, we prove that SIC decoders help the cellular operator maximize its utility. To relieve the computational burden of the BS, we propose a threshold-based distributed data offloading scheme. We show that the proposed distributed scheme performs well if the threshold is properly chosen.IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications 08/2014;

Many soccer fans believe that Barcelona's professional team is the best there is. Some even think it's the best collection of players ever assembled in the sport's 150-year history. Bob Simon profiles the Spanish "football" club and the training system it built that produces such gifted players that nearly 70 percent of the current team is manned by its graduates. Simon's report on FC Barcelona will be broadcast on 60 MINUTES, Sunday, Jan. 6 (7:00-8:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Get a sneak peek below!
Spanish football columnist John Carlin says right now, Barca, as many refer to the club, is the "best football team in the world." But he goes on to say that they may be un-matched in history. "There are a lot of people...serious people in the game, who believe this is the greatest football team that has ever been since the rules of the game were drawn up in a London pub in 1862 or three," he tells Simon.
The club has won nearly every top level title there is to win in the sport - taking home 14 out of a possible 19 trophies in the last four years.
One reason Barca is so good right now is its star forward Lionel Messi, who, at 25, already has broken major records, including scoring 86 goals in 2012, beating a 30-year old world record for most goals in a calendar year. He and 17 of the club's 25 players came out of Barcelona's recruitment system, which began in the 1970s. Stressing academics, sports and discipline, the academy, originally housed in an 18th century farmhouse called La Masia, is difficult to get into and easy to be kicked out of.
"I was very lucky, and I am not just talking about the football. I am talking about manners, values, education at school," La Masia alum and Barca star player Cesc Fabregas tells Simon. "The only thing is, you have to study a lot... they are very strict, but it's worth it," says Fabregas, who came to La Masia when he was 10. Asked by Simon how a Masia student would fare if he were more inclined to go out for good time than to train, Fabregas replies "You'll be out, very, very quick."
Perhaps the greatest alum of the Barcelona system is Messi, who came in as 13-year-old boy from Argentina. Twelve years later, he is regarded as the best soccer player there is, and he may well be the best ever. Messi is famous now, but his attitude about the game hasn't changed one bit. "I enjoy football in the same way I did when I was a little kid," Messi tells Simon. "And I love playing. I love winning the games. I love scoring and I keep loving it all."

The report provides a snapshot of working conditions at two Chinese factories in August of 2013. Independent labor monitoring organization OpenView Service conducted the assessment of the two facilities in Shanghai and Changshu, with accreditation from the Fair Labor Association, an organization of mostly corporate members, including Apple and Nike Inc .
"Excessive overtime is not in anyone's best interest, and we will continue to work closely with Quanta and our other suppliers to prevent it," Apple said in a statement issued in response to the report. "This year, through the end of July, Quanta has averaged 86 percent compliance with our 60-hour workweek."
Apple and its main assembler, Foxxconn, came under fire in 2010 when reports surfaced of worker suicides and unfair labor conditions. In 2012, Apple became the first technology company to join the Fair Labor Association and began speaking more openly about its efforts to improve suppliers' practices.
Working Conditions
OpenView's assessors, who spent four and five days at each of the factories last year, listed a number of instances of non-compliance with the FLA's code of conduct.
The report found that both factories fell short of local requirements for indoor air quality testing, and that 80 percent of workers interviewed in Shanghai claimed to have been charged a hiring fee by a broker or agent. Moreover, workers were not paid due wages for sick leave, and during the busiest periods of the year, facilities regularly exceeded legal limits on working hours.
In addition, over 100 Changshu workers age 16 and 17 said they had worked overtime. But those young workers were transferred from Apple's production lines by the end of July 2013, the report said.
Apple stressed that it routinely conducts its own audits and has taken steps to fix myriad problems in close collaboration with its suppliers.
In the past year, it said, "we have worked closely with Quanta to drive meaningful improvements in areas identified by both the FLA and Apple."
The iPhone maker also said it conducted four follow-up inspections, as well as the annual audits of both facilities.
Under Chief Executive Tim Cook and Vice President for Environmental Initiatives Lisa Jackson, Apple has taken steps to improve transparency regarding its environmental and supply chain efforts.

Urbanization, Suburbanization, and Economic Development in New Brunswick
There seems to be a prevalent trend in media and political commentary about the Canadian province of New Brunswick where I live and am from; that the province is falling behind, in decline.
There are no doubt serious challenges facing New Brunswick, including recent unemployment numbers that are the highest in the country, and a recent increase in outmigration rates.
However, it is not all bad news. For all the challenges facing our province, there are bright spots. New Brunswick does offer quality-of-life advantages that can be an attraction for newcomers -- relatively low housing costs, smaller cities and communities that offer an alternative to larger urban centres, and close proximity to nature and outdoor activities. Economic development expert Richard Florida, speaking in Anchorage Alaska, highlighted the appeal of outdoor activities and proximity to natural environments for many young professionals and entrepreneurs.
The 2011 Canadian census showed some good news for the province, with New Brunswick's three largest cities - Fredericton, Moncton, and Saint John - posting population growth. Saint John is especially worth noting as the 2006-2011 time frame represented the first period of population growth for the city in four decades - a testament to the increasing popularity of dense mixed-use urban neighbourhoods like Uptown which appeal to young professionals, as well as entrepreneurial start-ups where loft-style downtown facilities are increasingly popular.
Fredericton and Moncton offer a rich scene of start-ups, including high-tech companies, all of which bring new opportunities for meaningful careers.
The Pond-Deshpande Centre at UNB plays a crucial role building links between the university and business, while organizations like 21inc offer important avenues for innovative young people.
It is worth noting that while urban centres in the province are growing, suburban municipalities are among the fastest growing.
Between 2006 and 2011, Dieppe grew by 25.6 per cent to 23,310 people and Quispamsis grew by 17.4 per cent to a population of 17,886. Dieppe is the fourth largest municipality in the province with Quispamsis just edging out Miramichi for fifth place.
This shows that our province is not only urbanizing, but also suburbanizing, with municipalities like Quispamsis and Dieppe becoming significant entities in their own right, hopefully warranting greater attention and scrutiny of municipal policies in these places.
A growing population brings the issue of managing growth, highlighting the need to promote sustainable urban growth which emphasizes walkability over generic box-store style sprawl that induces greater car dependence and increases infrastructure costs such as maintaining roads.
It is important to build links between New Brunswick's cities and rural areas, to promote rural and natural areas as sites for recreation and tourism and to promote local agriculture. On agriculture, ways to promote a unique New Brunswick brand -- emphasizing healthy and natural food for example -- should be promoted.
Companies such as Covered Bridge Chips in Hartland provide an example of successful marketing and branding of local food. In Ontario, the University of Guelph has established a partnership to promote agricultural development in the Niagara Region. Could the same not be done here?
Places such as the Nashwaak River Valley benefit from proximity to Fredericton, with the scenery of the region being an attraction for cottagers and for people who want to live in the country but be near an urban centre.
A town like Woodstock -- which has a sizeable and dense downtown -- holds potential, to promote local businesses, tourism, and has potential for start-ups. Places like Grand Manan Island offer natural beauty and outdoor activities -- including The Anchorage Provincial Park -- and could offer potential especially if promoted through the right avenues, including possibly attracting tourists from New York City and Boston who visit Maine to come a bit further to Charlotte County.
In all this, we have to be cognizant that economic development in New Brunswick has been uneven and that northern New Brunswick and many rural areas and small communities are losing population. While the larger urban regions benefit from immigration and migration from outside the province, they are gaining population as well from a migration of people from northern and rural New Brunswick.
The population numbers cited above are from 2011, when New Brunswick overall posted population growth, with unemployment and outmigration higher more recently, it is hoped that the 2016 census won't ultimately yield a reversal of some of the province's earlier positive trends.
Nonetheless, our province has had successes. We should not be despondent. The key is how these successes can be expanded upon and applied across the province. Government policy needs to be geared towards this end, fostering an entrepreneurial environment (including municipal urban planning policies prioritizing the types of downtown environments popular with start-ups), promoting accessible and affordable post-secondary-education, helping sectors such as agriculture become sustainable in the 21st century, promoting population growth (including promoting New Brunswick as a destination for those who want an alternative to larger cities) and realizing that poverty reduction and social inclusion are key.

In Pictures: Fabricio Formiliano trains with Uruguay's U20 squad despite having a broken leg
The Under-20 World Cup is about to get underway in Turkey, but Fabricio Formiliano is unlikely to take part.
The Uruguayan centre-half picked up a fracture to his right leg just days before the competition started, but rather than return to his homeland to get treatment Formiliano has stayed with the Uruguay squad and he's even turned up to training.
A couple of pictures have been taken by Turkish media showing Fabricio Formiliano at Uruguay's U20 training on Wednesday, and brilliantly the defender even tried to get involved in the warm-up despite having a cast around his leg.

As a preview, here's the book's front and back cover:

As a preview, here's the book's front and back cover:
At the urging of many friends and family, I have created a Facebook page for my Beatles presentations and writings. All my Beatles blog posts will now be shared on that page rather than my personal account from now on. 'Like' the page to stay informed: facebook.com/aaron.krerowicz
Yesterday's Sgt. Pepper program in Indianapolis went exceptionally well - and it's really interesting to note the differences between the locations of Tuesday's A Hard Day's Night program and yesterday's Pepper. I found the auditorium on Tuesday dulled the audience's engagement, and the community room yesterday had the complete opposite effect - they were completely with me for the whole program! About the same number of people attended both (30-40), but the auditorium was quite large and the community room quite small. So even though they were equally well-attended, the Pepper program felt much fuller because the room was at capacity while the auditorium was only 10% full. Anyway, it reinforces the notion that I will request community rooms over auditoriums for future programs.
August concludes with the 31st and final of my summer Beatles programs, "The Beatles: Band of the Sixites" at the central location of the Allen County Public Library (900 Library Plaza, Fort Wayne, IN) from 7-8:30pm.
Yesterday I presented on A Hard Day's Night at the central branch off the Indianapolis Marion County Public Library. It was very interesting speaking in an auditorium - it gave a very different atmosphere from the multipurpose "community rooms" where I usually present. On one hand, it was great to be in a super nice room with a huge screen and high quality speakers. On the other hand, though, it had a much more formal atmosphere. It felt rather similar to the academic programs I sometimes give at universities, which (obviously) have a more academic flavor. The auditorium also had an interesting effect on the audience. Whenever performing in any context, there's a certain energy that exists between performer and audience. I typically sense a very strong connection when speaking on the Beatles (that energy during the program at Glendale on Sunday was particularly strong). But last night the auditorium seemed to dull that connection. Up on stage, it was very difficult to feel any sort of response from my audience. I certainly didn't get bad vibes (and I did receive many nice compliments afterward), but during the program itself it felt rather sedate.
The Indianapolis portion of my Indiana lecture tour concludes today at the Irvington Branch (5625 E.Washington St, Indianapolis, IN) with the Indiana premier of "The Beatles' Alter Ego, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band from 6-7:30pm.
"A Hard Day's Night: The Music & The Movie" at the Central Indianapolis Marion County Public Library
My mini tour of Indiana continues today with the Indiana premiere of "A Hard Day's Night: The Music & The Movie" at the Central branch of the IMCPL (40 E St Clair St, Indianapolis, IN) from 6-7:30pm. I'm that told a DJ will be playing Beatles music as a prelude to the presentation. I was an undergrad at Butler University when the new library opened, so I'm very pleased to be back at one of the best libraries I've ever seen!
The Indiana portion of my Beatles programs began yesterday afternoon with "The Beatles: Band of the Sixties" at the Glendale branch of the Indianapolis Marion County Public Library. A crowd of 77 people turned out for a standing room only crowd! I will return to the IMCPL on Tuesday for "A Hard Day's Night: The Music & The Movie" and again on Wednesday for "The Beatles' Alter Ego, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."
Today, however, is another round of "Band of the Sixties" at the Anderson Public Library (111 East 12th St, Anderson, IN) from 6-7:30pm.
Today begins another Beatles lecture tour of Ohio and Indiana with "A Hard Day's Night: The Music & The Movie" at the Kent Free Library (312 W Main St, Kent, OH) from 2-3:30pm. Although my formal study of the Beatles began in June 2011, my informal study of the band began a year prior in August 2010 when I checked out the audiobook of Bob Spitz's The Beatles: The Biography from the Kent Free Library. I'm also very pleased to return to location that started it all - and today marks my third program in Kent. (The only other library to host as many of my Beatles programs is the West Hartford Public Library.)
Several people have recently commented on my unfinished A/B Road blog series comparing the track listings of the bootlegs to Doug Sulpy's catalog from his book Drugs Divorce and a Slipping Image. And indeed, I abandoned the project some months back after just four of the planned twenty blogs when I realized that (A) Sulpy revised his book in 2007, which in his own words was "pretty much re-written ... from scratch", rendering the original 1994 edition that I was using pretty much worthless; and (B) others have already done what I was doing (I tried hard to find some one else's work so I wouldn't have to do it all myself - it's VERY tedious! - but someone actually found me and shared his work, which I thoroughly appreciate). In any case, here is the finished product, a thorough comparison of the A/B Road track listings with the 2007 Sulpy catalog:
Doug Sulpy's book is officially out of print, but available as an E-Book from his website for just $10! (I would have paid ten times that amount for such an excellent piece of scholarship.) You can purchase it here:
And you can read my review of the book here:
And after watching "Meet the Beat Alls", YouTube recommended this:
And what's really great is how musically accurate it all is - the parodies are the real songs inverted, and even the added sixth chord at the end!
Meet the Beat Alls
My thanks to Mr. Daniel Kasnitz for alerting me to one of the best Beatles parodies I've ever seen (sorry, Rutles) after this evening's "The Beatles: Band of the Sixties" at the Brooks Memorial Library!

Tonto Dike
Tonto Dike is from Ekwere, Port Harcourt, Rivers state. I am from a family of seven, my father is still alive, my mum is late but I have a wonderful step mum. In general, I will sum it up to say that Tonto Dike is a young girl who strives hard to succeed and makes the best out of life.
Born on June 9, 1985… this year I will be 23 years, I am still in school, University of Science and Technology, Port Harcourt, specifically, studying petro-chemical engineering and in my final year.
Growing up
Growing up was wonderful because I had everything I wanted and wasn't deprived of anything. My father was well to do so he did everything possible for me. I went to the best schools in my state, I graduated with good results from my primary and secondary school and I think I will graduate with the best result after my degree results are out.
I have had parental love, care, family ties while growing up. It's been love all the way.
The only thing that I didn't appreciate while growing up was the fact that I could not mix with my peer group, which is the reason why I can't speak my dialect and that is a very shameful thing. Another was growing up without my mother. She died when I was three years old, so I practically didn't know her, but it was a joy to know that I had someone who I could say replaced her.
Entrance into Nollywood
I got into the industry after I left the reality T.V show "The next movie star"2005 where I was first runner up, the year Kingsley Ogboso won, and from there, I started looking for contacts and fortunately for me, a lot of people saw my talent.
I got involved in the reality show first because I saw it as a way of getting close to the industry, a starting point. I had hoped that from it I would move into the industry and it happened.
Sincerely, I don't think I have had to go through any challenge. This is because I don't see them as challenges; I am a very prayerful person. I believe so much in God and it seems like everything just falls at my feet. Anything I want just falls at my feet. I can't say I have had to go through challenges since I got into the industry.
Big break
The only thing I can say in this regard is that once you are good, you are good. You don't need to wait for the movie to be wow! Even if it is something that is not very glamorous, just play two or three scenes, making sure that your potentials show. That is what has worked for me, so I can't really say this or that is the movie that was a break for me.
Right from my second movie I was already playing a lead role.
Perhaps I should say my first movie, but it came out last year so I will say my second movie. The movie was Holy Cross that I did with Nonso Diobi, Uncle Pete Edochie, Jim Iyke, producers; directors after watching it wanted to use me on their own films. Right from my second movie people started to look out for me.
I see the industry as a fruitful one, which can yield more fruits in the future. All we need is hard work, perseverance, prayer. The industry is like a newborn baby that has to be nurtured and well taken care of. I still think that we really need to work hard because we are way backward. Though we may be doing okay, I still think we can do better.
I am in a relationship, which I am very proud of it. He is okay for me. I took what God gave me, and remember, I said God gives me anything that I desire. As for how he feels when I am on set with all the kissing and hugging, I'll tell you something: When I say that I took what God gave me, I meant that He gave me a package in a man, all I want in life He gave to me in one person.
He gave me endurance, patience, love and one who understands. He really understands, so I don't have a problem with my handling of roles. He might not be okay with the roles all the while, but he still prays for me and hopes for a better future for me because he knows I love my job.
Sex for roles
I have never come across that in the industry and as I said, God has favored me so much that I didn't need to beg people nor sleep with anybody before I got into movies.
Music with Patience Ozorkwor
First of all, the music is owned by Amaco Investments; Charles, Patience and I were just called to mime it. I had fun being in the video and I didn't know it was going to be this big as everybody is talking about it. I have no plans whatsoever to get into music.
You and Nonso Diobi
I love Nonso Diobi so much because he is a friend and brother. He is someone I can talk to when I have a problem. He is like someone who is there for you. Beside that, there is nothing else between us. We are just platonic friends.
First day on set
I was very scared. I was shy. I didn't know what to think or expect until the lights came on, then I knew that this was serious business. But I had people like Uncle Pete Edochie, Nonso Diobi, Desmond Elliot, Nkiru Sylvanus, and Uncle Larry Coldsweat. They kept saying 'you can do it' and I did it.
What you can't wear
I will not be caught in a long skirt because I hate it. I also can't wear Iro and Buba, it's fashion for the older women. I am still very young and I need to feel free in my body.
You can't catch me being very religious in my dressing, I love to dress the way I love to dress.
As for what I can't leave my house without, that would be a purse because I need to put things inside it.
Beauty routine
I wake up in the morning, use a facial scrub, then use a very good soap and cream - Makari specifically, and that's all for the day till evening. I actually take a shower like two three times a day, which helps polish my skin. Aside that, when I have the time I go to the spa.
Sexy part of her
I give that to my lips. I love them and people have told me that they love them too.
Talking about what people don't know about me, a lot of people don't know that I am very nice, a wonderful and serious minded person.
Coping with school and acting
I am in my final year now, and this year, I have decided that I must spend almost all of it in school doing school work. Though I will still be on set, I hope to be in school more. I will work it out, I don't have a plan yet, but I will be able to be in school more often than I used to.
Blunt nature
Indeed, I am very blunt. A lot of people say that I am really dogged and that is what I love about myself. I say it as it is. Sometimes when you refrain from saying things the way it is, you hurt a lot of people and sometimes when you tell it as it is, people think you are hurting them but that is not the case as you are only trying to save a lot of people the stress. So, yes, I am a very blunt and down to earth person.
Philosophy of life
I have a lot of them but I will share one, if you have your eyes on something, on a particular level in life when you get to that level, always know that there are so many other levels left to climb. Try to be on top, even when you are on top, try to be on top the top.
Artiste admired
Back home, I only admire two females - Aunty Joke Sylvia and Rita Dominic. Why Rita? It's because when I want to recount how my interest in the movies started, her name will be mentioned as she inspired me a lot. And for Aunty Joke, she is a wonderful person, she is joy to me, I watch her and I feel alive and want to do more than she has done.
Internationally, I love Al Paccino and Julia Roberts, they are inspiration to me.
In five years
I really have faith and hope that I will be better than I am now. I am not striving to end in Nollywood, I intend to get into Hollywood, I don't know how I will do that but I know that God will make a way for me.
A word to fans
I say thank to all of you. I really appreciate your love shown in your buying my movies, watching them and appreciating me. I wake up each day knowing that without you in my life, there will be no full Tonto. I love you all
