To participate you need a group of, at least, 10 people with a leader that is 18 or over. All members of the group have to be between 16 and 30 and come from one of the EU member states, candidate states and neighbouring countries.
During the first phase of registration (8 Octotber to 31 December 2013), your group leader can apply to participate in the event through the online registration system. In the second phase individual participants from your group will be signed up for programme activities.
There is no participation fee for the EYE 2014, but you will need to pay for your own transport, accommodation and meals.
There are three ways to actively participate in the European Youth Event 2014:
1. Register for, take part and engage in political debates, workshops and other activities. Ideas and conclusions will form a final report for presentation to the newly elected European Parliament Members, as well as other European decision-makers as a source of inspiration.
2. Apply to stage an artistic performance - be it music, dance, acrobatics, sketches or anything else you might want to propose. A selection of the applicants will be able to perform during the Street Festival which will take place on various stages in the city of Strasbourg on Friday evening
3. Apply to present a special initiative that is related to the five main topics. A limited number of initiatives can be presented at the EYE in an interactive way (e.g. by organising an interactive stand outside, offering a practical workshop).
The EYE 2014 will include a large variety of activities run under the motto "Ideas for a better Europe" in a political, social and cultural sense. Activities will focus on five main themes: youth unemployment, digital revolution, future of the European Union, sustainability and European Values.
The event will offer political debates and workshops, roleplay games, a youth village and a festival organised by the European Youth Forum, a concert and a street festival.

It's the fourth R (Image: AFP/Getty)
"Mum! Dad! My program won't terminate and I haven't initialised my variables." In the biggest shake-up to the curriculum since computers were first introduced to schools, this month children aged 5 and up in England will be taught how to write software and not just how to use it.
Read more: "Code generation: Kids who program before they can read"
If you're used to helping with your kids' homework but don't know your booleans from your for-loops, you're not alone. According to a recent survey by the British Computer Society, 60 per cent of parents are either unaware of or are unclear about the changes to IT lessons that came into effect this week. Many teachers at primary and secondary schools have had to take crash courses to learn the basics before teaching the subject.
If you're curious about coding yourself, why not do the same? Here are a few handy resources to get your whole family on board.
A good place for beginners is code.org, which has plenty of tutorials and exercises covering the basics, from drag-and-drop programming with the graphical starter language Blockly to widely used languages like Python, Ruby and Javascript. "There is more than enough there for anyone of any age," says Mark Clarkson, head of computing at Egglescliffe School in Stockton on Tees, UK.
For the slightly more adventurous, there's Codecademy, a website with interactive tutorials for HTML and PHP as well as Python, Ruby and Javascript again. Get to grips with these and you will have mastered some of the core languages underpinning the web – YouTube was originally written in Python, for example.
Start from Scratch
You can also try out Scratch via its website. A product of the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab, Scratch will be used in many schools. Like Blockly, it lets you build a program out of ready-made blocks of code.
Another advantage is that projects made with Scratch can be shared online. "A good idea, once youngsters have figured out how to do a little bit in Scratch, is to encourage them to remix other people's work," says Clarkson. This will let them see how other people have done things and learn from it – plus changing something that is already there can also be easier than starting with a blank canvas. "Reading is always a prerequisite to writing," Clarkson says.
The British Computer Society has a guide for parents on its website that introduces the new curriculum and lists a handful of resources. And the Barefoot Computing project, set up to support primary school teachers, offers resources that would also be useful to parents.
The most important thing is for parents to be supportive, says Clarkson. "Computer science is an area where people will get it wrong lots of times before they get it right," he says. "This is something that young people are typically not exposed to very much in schools these days." Learning together could help. "Parents may well find the same bits tricky that their children do, which may well be a huge confidence boost for the child," says Clarkson.

EDMOND ŌĆö In 2012, the Spiro Bulldogs baseball team made the Class 3A State Tournament, only to suffer a heartbreaking 1-0 loss to the Verdigris Cardinals in the quarterfinals.
The same two teams met Friday afternoon in the Class 3A State Tournament semifinals at Edmond Santa Fe High School.
Unfortunately for the ŌĆśDogs, the same result happened.
The Cardinals defeated the Bulldogs 10-4 to advance to today's state title game. Spiro ends the season at 27-7.
BARTLESVILLE ŌĆö The Carl Albert State College baseball team split its first two games of the Region II Tournament at Doenges Ballpark.
The Vikings staved off elimination Friday afternoon with a 2-0 win over the Northern Oklahoma College-Tonkawa Mavericks after losing their opener 4-3 to the Western Oklahoma State College Pioneers on Thursday night.
The Vikings (23-30) did not know as of press time who their opponent would be at 3:30 this afternoon. In one scenario, the Vikings will play the loser of FridayŌĆÖs Murray State/NOC-Enid game this afternoon.
The Poteau Lady Pirates soccer team, who are going to watch their Pirate counterparts try to win the Class 4A state title tonight with a win over Oklahoma City Santa Fe South, did not make the playoffs. However, they ended the season by winning their final two matches and three of their last four to end the season at 3-10 and 2-4 in district play. For the seniors, it was a grand way to go out.
WISTER ŌĆö Earlier this year, Wister baseball player Tyler Gibson signed with Seminole State College. A second Wildcat senior, Colby Turnipseed, signed to play college baseball at Carl Albert State College in a signing ceremony Tuesday morning at the Wister Gym.
ŌĆ£I just like to play college baseball,ŌĆØ Turnipseed said ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs close to home. I really just want to go in there and do whatever they tell me to do ŌĆö and play wherever. IŌĆÖm looking forward to the opportunity. IŌĆÖm very excited.ŌĆØ
The LeFlore County Bass Club had their sixth tournament of the 2013 circuit on Sunday at Wards Landing on Wister Lake. There were 35 boats with 62 anglers who caught 101 fish that had a total weight of 208.96 pounds. The average weight per fish was 2.07 pounds. Nine limits were caught.
Tom Neff and Paul Tankersly took first place with a stringer weighing 17 pounds even, which included NeffŌĆÖs big bass weighing 5.99 pounds. The duo pocketed $770 for the win, while Neff got an additional $310 for the big bass winner.
EDMOND ŌĆö Jason Hickman went 2-for-2 with a double, a run batted in and two runs scored to lead the Spiro Bulldogs to a 5-2 victory over the Salina Wildcats in the Class 3A State Tournament quarterfinals Thursday afternoon at Deer Creek High School.
Spiro (27-6) advances to play Verdigris (30-2), a 3-0 winner over Oklahoma Christian earlier Thursday, at 11 a.m. Friday in the state semifinals.
The game will be a rematch of last year's state quarterfinals, which was won by the Cardinals, ranked No. 1 in OKRankings.com, over the ŌĆÖDogs 1-0 at Edmond Memorial High School.
For Poteau Lady Pirates track seniors Colleen Peterson and Latifah Harris, they were hoping that they would return to state in their final season to do so. And they did.
Peterson and Harris, two of the four legs of both the 800-meter and 1,600-meter relays, will get to run at the Class 5A State Meet, which will be Friday and Saturday at Yukon High SchoolŌĆÖs Miller Stadium.
The duo will be joined by Marissa Smith and Brianna Steele on the 800-meter relay, while Brittany Fox and Kandace Standridge will run with them in the 1,600-meter relay.
ŌĆó ŌĆó ŌĆó
Poteau/Class 5A State Track Meet Qualifiers
OKLAHOMA CITY ŌĆö After surviving Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals on Sunday afternoon at home against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Oklahoma City Thunder needed to play better ŌĆö and make a statement that it is still a title contender.
Without Russell Westbrook, the Thunder has struggled to find a groove, and has been inconsistent to say the least. That trend continued as the Thunder fell 99-93 to Memphis on Tuesday night in Game 2 at Chesapeake Energy Arena, and left the series tied 1-1 heading to Memphis for Games 3 and 4.
Turkey season has come to a close, and I have a few more pictures and stories to put this season to rest.
First, Parker Cooper of Cameron killed his first gobbler this year. It was a 17-pound bird with 9┬Į-inch beard and ┬Š-inch spurs. Parker was hunting with Jake French on this hunt.
Butch Parks, Brad Wells and Carl Milligan took birds off our lease near Clayton last week. ButchŌĆÖs gobbler weighed 21 pounds and had a 9┬Į-inch paintbrush beard.
Oklahoma Blood Institute is partnering with Heavener High School to host a blood drive from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., Monday in the Home Economics room.
OBI provide all blood needed by patients in Choctaw Nation Health Care System and 140 others across the state.
Sign up in Ms. WileyŌĆÖs room. All students must have signed permission slips.

Nevada Wolf Pack
Preview 2007
Pete Fiutak
2007 Nevada Offense Preview
2007 Nevada Defense Preview
2007 Nevada Depth
2006 CFN Nevada Preview
Under head coach Chris Ault, Nevada has carved out a nice niche for
itself in the WAC world as a steady force that'll always be in the
hunt for the title. The co-champions of 2005 came back with another
successful season beating up the teams they were supposed to and
losing, for the most part, to the teams they were expected to.
However, it might take a bit or rebuilding this year to get back to
a third bowl in three seasons.
Long-time starting quarterback Jeff Rowe is gone along with top
receiver Caleb Spencer and safety-valve tight end Anthony Pudewell.
There's enough talent to reload and be decent in the passing game,
and the ground game should be good as always with three starters
returning on the line along with pounding back Luke Lippencott, but
is there enough in the offensive arsenal to keep up with Boise
State, Hawaii, and even New Mexico State? How about in
non-conference games against Nebraska and an improved Northwestern?
With Ault's experience in knowing how to put together strong teams
in a hurry, and with a rock-solid team returning in all phases,
there just might be enough to challenge for the WAC title.

Prediction: 8-4
2006 Record:
Preview 2006 predicted wins
Despite a perception that the "pistol" offense is about throwing the
ball, Nevada is a hard-nosed, strong running team that's as physical as
any team in the conference. There might not be a better defense in the
WAC, and no one outside of Boise State does all the little things right,
so the hope has to be for the combination of a punishing ground game,
efficient passing attack, tremendous return game and few mistakes to
overcome a lack of explosion.
Ault has the system in place that's taken the program from point A to
point B, and while it might not be the WAC's flashiest team (like
Hawaii), or the new kid on the block everyone is talking about (like San
Jose State), it has the potential, and the coaching, to take the next
step and be the WAC's best team from top to bottom.
What to watch for on offense: Mistakes to be kept to a minimum.
The occasionally conservative aspect of the one-back, shotgun offense
only works if there aren't many mistakes. There were too many turnovers
last year, but the 37 takeaways from the defense made up for them.
Likely new starting quarterback Nick Graziano's job one is to secure the
ball. Job two is to keep feeding Lippencott.
What to watch for on defense: Pressure, more pressure, and
turnovers. The 3-4 scheme wasn't always a rock, but it crushed and
killed the weaker, inefficient WAC offenses. Even though Boise State's
defense might have been the best in the league, no one got into the
backfield like the Pack did and no one was as good at forcing mistakes.
Even without top end J.J. Milan, the heat will keep on coming.
The team will be far better if … The punting game is better. This
might be the team's one true weakness. For a team that likes to take
chances on defense and run the ball on offense, a good kicking game and
better overall field position would be nice. Zacary Whited was decent,
but the coverage unit didn't do much to help him out.
The Schedule: The non-conference schedule is interesting
with dates at Nebraska and Northwestern to go along with a home game
against UNLV. If the Pack can win two of those three, it'll be a success
before starting off the WAC season with some of its biggest games
hosting Fresno State and going to Boise State. Hawaii has to come to
Reno, but Nevada has to go to San Jose State in late November before
closing out with an apparent layup against Louisiana Tech.
Best Offensive Player:
Junior C
Dominic Green. After an All-WAC season at tackle, the 6-3, 295-pounder
will move inside to his more natural center position where he started
eight games as a freshman. Easily the team's most versatile lineman,
he's also the best with an NFL future ahead of him.
Best Defensive Player:
Senior LB
Ezra Butler. A tackling machine with 146 stops in the last two seasons
to go along with 12.5 sacks, Butler is the tone-setter for the defense
and a consistent force in all areas. When needed, he can play like an
extra defensive end, but he's grown into a star linebacker.
Key player to a
successful season:
Sophomore QB Nick
Graziano. Maybe. While Graziano has a little bit of experience as the
third string quarterback last year, he'll have to fight off redshirt
freshmen Colin Kaepernick and Tyler Lantrip to hold on to the job. The
6-1, 220-pound Graziano is much smaller than the 6-5, 225-pound Jeff
Rowe, who was the leader in the program's resurgence, he has a better
The season will be a
success if
... Nevada gets back to a bowl game and finishes second in the WAC.
While the fans and coaching staff will shoot for nothing less than a
conference title, there might not be quite enough in the bag to get by
road dates against Boise State and San Jose State.
Key game:
Oct. 14th at
Boise State. In a Sunday afternoon game, the Pack will try to make up
for last year's debacle getting thoroughly dominated at home by the
Broncos. If Nevada can beat Fresno State to start the season, a win over
the Boise would mean the WAC title will be there for the taking
2006 Fun Stats:
- Sacks: Nevada 37 for 232 yards – Opponents 26 for 171 yards
- Penalties: Opponents 86 for 731 yards – Nevada 55 for 438 yards

Live Life ... message me
I have just recently moved to NOVA from North Carolina for a job. I have played ice hockey since I was nine years old and still do whenever I can in Arlington. In the summer I love to be out on the lake enjoying the sun, boat, jet skis, or wakeboarding. In the winter I love to go snowboarding and try to plan one or several trips out west a year. I have had the opportunity to live all over this wonderful country of ours. Some places include California, Missouri, Maryland, Alabama, Georgia, Hawaii, New York, Kansas, Virginia, and North Carolina thanks to both my fathers military career and hockey. Other than Canada and the Bahamas I have not gotten to travel outside the continental U.S. but would love to visit New Zealand, Germany, Italy, and England. I like to watch both movies and some TV shows. Some of which include Boardwalk Empire, Spartacus, Dexter, Big Bang Theory, Sons of Anarchy, Game of Thrones, and Californiacation. Some of the movies that I enjoy would include Ted, Happy Gilmore, The Mechanic, The Dark Knight, Step Brothers, Miracle, Gladiator, American Gangster, Billy Madison, etc.... I like a wide range of music, but some of my favorites include .... Red Hot Chili Peppers, 10 Years, Chevellle, Deadmau5, Eminem, Foster the People, Jack Johnson, Lindsey Stirling, Matisyahu, MGMT, Sublime, and Three Days Grace. I would like to meet someone that is fun, outgoing, smart, adventurous, positive, energetic, and willing to try new things. I am attracted to women that can hold their own, while not relying on me to be their sole source of entertainment. I am NOT looking for anything short term, or just a "fling". I would like to meet someone that I can connect with, that shares similar interests or things that compliment both what she likes and what I like. I am attracted to a girls smile, and the desire to stay active and fit. I would love to find someone that can throw on a nice dress and some heels to go out with, while on the other hand can also stay in from time to time on a Friday night in sweatpants and a t-shirt to just relax and watch a movie. If you are interested to learn more, feel free to message me.

The study, conducted at and in collaboration with the National Science Foundation's W.K. Kellogg Biological Station at Michigan State University (MSU), showed that although feeding the plant more fertilizer increases the grain's cellulose content, grain yield quickly hits a plateau. "The kilograms of grain you get per hectare goes up pretty fast and peaks," Masiello said. At the same time, the researchers found only a modest increase in plant and stem cellulose, the basic component used to produce cellulosic ethanol.
"The implicit assumption has always been that the response of plant cellulose to fertilizer is going to be the same as the grain response, but we've showed this assumption may not always hold, at least for corn," Gallagher said.
Nitrogen fertilization encourages production of lignin within the plant, and without lignin, stalks won't stand. Lignin production comes at the expense of useful cellulose production. The researchers found that lignin yields from plant residue increased at nearly twice the rate as cellulose in response to nitrogen fertilization, and they said this implies "that residue feedstock quality declines as more nitrogen fertilizer is applied."
Lignin breaks down slowly via bacterial enzymes, and it is expensive to remove by chemical or mechanical processes that create a bottleneck in cellulosic ethanol production. "The ideal cellulosic ethanol crop has no lignin -- except you can't have a plant without it, because it would fall over. Plants need some lignin to maintain structure," said co-author Bill Hockaday, a former Rice postdoctoral researcher and now an assistant professor at Baylor University. "What we want is a low lignin-to-cellulose ratio."
Reducing fertilizer to the bare-bones minimum serves that purpose. "

The seventh out of Ten Commandment speaks about "adultery". Lets take a look:
Exodus 20:14 לֹ֣֖א תִּֿנְאָֽ֑ף׃ ס
The traditional interpretation of "lo-tinaph" is "Thou shalt not commit adultery.". However, this is an incorrect or rather sloppy definition of the Hebrew word. In reality, the text is saying this:
"Not you shall commit sexual perversion"
Such translation is based on Leviticus 20:10 (from the Torah) and Jeremiah 3:9 (from the Tanakh).
If you will look closer at Leviticus 20:10, you will notice that it provides a clarification about the word. As you can see from this verse, if "tinaph" equal "adultery" there would be no need to specify that it is "with a woman of a man" or "with a woman of his associate". In other words, it is clear from this passage that "tinaph" can be committed in other ways than "with a woman of a man". Also, from last two words of this passage (hano'ef vehano'afet) it is clear that "tinaph" can be committed by both man and a woman, which implies "sexual perversion" rather than "adultery", because a man sleeping with another woman is not always considered "adultery" under Torah Law (see Exodus 22:16, Leviticus 19:20)
Jeremiah 3:9 also supports such interpretation as it says "and tinaph with the stone and with the wood". Once again, if "tinaph" = "adultery" there would be no need in clarification. And clarification itself shows that you can "tinaph" with people and/or things other than your husband.
Last, but not least, the 10 Commandments is a "compressed" Torah of sorts (see Ex 34:28, Deut 4:13 and Deut 10:4) which must account for all other commandments in the Torah. And since Torah talks about numerous sexual deviances (such as incest, homosexuality, bestiality, e.t.c) there is no other choice but to understand that "lo tinaph" = "not you shall commit sexual perversion".

The Calm in the Storm
Samuel T. Adams reveals the poetic humor of our chaotic times
One of the linen paintings, Doppelganger (2008), is Samuel T. Adams' first large-scale work at 7x5 feet and exemplifies a reverse way of looking at High Fidelity. "I immediately began to deviate from my plans," he says. "I started painting this large bird-like form the same scale as me. I had to listen to the picture (to the bird) and react to what it was telling me. I'm one of those guys who sits in the studio for 12 hours looking at and listening to the painting and deciding what to do next. It's really about being honest with yourself and the painting. It is a constant investigation. I wanted him to illustrate a notion familiar not only to painting of the last century, but also to the everyday: gesture versus restraint, expression versus conformity, following your gut or following the rules."
The Apple iPod was not quite what Hieronymus Bosch had in mind some 525 years ago when he painted The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things (c. 1485). But if the painter of fantastic religious and moral narratives could have seen Samuel T. Adams' High Fidelity (2008), he might have given the young artist his hearty endorsement.
That is because High Fidelity may succeed where so many artists fail: showing us a way to transcend the follies of our time and emerge with a clearer perspective.
That might be optimistic, but this particular painting casts a nefarious shadow over technological hegemony, transforming Mac mice into menacing creatures perched and lurching on stilts.
Where Bosch rendered scenes depicting envy, greed, sloth, extravagance, lust, wrath, and pride, Adams transcends moral irresponsibility, natural disaster, and issues of identity and responds in almost-existentialist fashion.
"I'm interested in the absurdity, incoherence, and disobedience that can characterize our everyday experience," Adams says. "The driving force behind my work is hard to pinpoint. Our mental constructs can't always deal with what is being handed to us in life."
One of six paintings in Adams' solo debut this month at Heather James Fine Art in Palm Desert, High Fidelity — a moniker referencing music, inspired by the ghouls serenading the tortured souls in the Bosch classic The Garden of Earthly Delights (c. 1504) — encapsulates what makes Adams tick: art history, music, literature, and current events.
"I make these paintings to better understand the relationships between seminal culture and historical references and my day-to-day observations," he says. "[The paintings are] something familiar yet strikingly other. When I apply a large gesture with a brush, I don't know exactly where the paint will land, but I have some sense of control with the materials."
The control stems from his training in printmaking. After graduating in 2002 from Columbus College of Art and Design, he was a printmaker at Crown Point Press in San Francisco. Artist residencies and grad school landed him back east and freed him to expand his vocabulary. "When the Levee Breaks [2007] was when I first used a full stroke and palette," he says, noting that the painting shares its name with a Led Zeppelin jam.
The painting, which comments on the apathy amid the chaos of post-Katrina New Orleans, was the harbinger of a muscular body of works on panel — paintings with tactile surfaces that retain the grit of Adams' printmaking. "I like panel because you can cut into it and be physical with it," he says. "I could dissect the skins of the paint, build up the
densities of the surface, and gouge back in."
Adams painted the two newest works in the exhibition on linen, taking himself closer to the raw surface: no ink or acetate, only acrylic paint. "It's more intuitive and incredibly liberating," he says, adding that a "Cat in the Hat absurdity" trumps the "heroic entity" of his brushstroke. "I'm not shying away from the fine lines, and I can still achieve the surface quality and physical dimension. It's been a gradual, radical change."
Fervent observations and intellectual references permeate Adams' paintings. "I don't feel that any painting should have a fixed meaning," he says. "I have my own ideas, but I want the viewer to finish the picture or reach the essence of what I'm saying in my own narrative."
More interesting to Adams than how viewers read his paintings is the irony of using a static medium (painting) to describe anything in flux. "Everything is perpetually getting bigger and better and simultaneously scarier and more threatening," he says. "This is the world I wish to depict: one of wicked mutation and hybridization. My plastic paintings are a stand-in for our surrounding reality."
Therein lies the satirical lyricism of Adams' tumultuous paintings — a frenzied noisiness tempered by poetic humor.

31 year old woman | Wilmington, DE, USA | Seeking men 25-35 within 50 miles of Philadelphia, PA
Blurred lines
Its hard to talk about yourself without sounding deuchey (is that a real word?)- but to start I am not your typical girl. I am independent and I like a guy that wants a balance of time together and time with friends and family. I encourage bromances so I won't whine when you want to spend time fishing or hiking or going to a game with your friends. Although if you have Eagles tickets I may want to tag along. I have a great career and my job is an important part of my life but try to make time for family and friends. I guess my type is really a t-shirt and jeans, laid back guy who drinks beer and loves big dogs (please don't be scared of big dogs.) I like to try new bars and restaurants all the time. I am very sarcastic and I like to keep the mood light but I know when to be serious. When my friends are upset they usually look to me to cheer them up. I'm someone you can trust but I'm not boring! I've been told I look better in person and once I get over being shy initially I am a really fun person to be around. Take a chance on me, I would love to talk! Unless you have a bathroom, car, or shirtless selfie as one of your pictures. I have my limits. (That was a joke....kinda)
Dining out , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Running, Yoga
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I have Dogs
I have two mutts. They are crazy but fun!
I am moving to the Wilmington area but I still spend a lot of time in Philly. I love going to games or trying out new restaurants and bars wherever they are. Walking/running trails are fun to explore too.
Philly sports teams, animals, reading. I love to be outdoors during the day (not a big camper but I make exceptions)
Watching sports, running, reading, hiking, traveling. I am more of a summer person so I like the beach, tubing, boats, waterskiing
I like to read a lot so I'm always reading something new. I like mostly fiction but occasionally non fiction history or science.

His illegitimate son Sir John Fox Burgoyne, 1782-1871, served with distinction in the Peninsular War. In the Crimean War his advice was followed in attacking Sevastopol from the south—an action that led to a long and hard siege. He was created field marshal in 1868.
The American Elm Ulmus americana cultivar (?) 'Burgoyne' was grown at the Arnold Arboretum until removed in 1988. The tree was raised from seeds of the Burgoyne Elm, grown for the town of Weston, Massachusetts, in 1965. The name of the tree was first noted in records of the Plant Sciences Data Center of the American Horticultural Society , but is not formally recognized as a valid cultivar.

Untold story of Kabiru Sokoto
ORDINARILY, Abaji is noted as a placid gateway to the Federal Capital Territory . If a commuter is coming to Abuja , this sleepy town provides a soothing relief that you are almost in the capital city. But the escape of a Boko Haram member, Kabiru Sokoto has deprived Abaji of its allure and image of a quiet entry point with strong Islamic ethos. When Kabiru Umaru Sokoto relocated to the town in March 2010, no one thought the guest will put Abaji on the world map as a refuge for a member of the Boko Haram. As a settler, Kabiru was whole heartedly accepted by the people of Abaji without inquisition into his Hijrah (migration) from Sokoto to their native land. It was gathered that the suspect, whose residence was burnt in Sokoto due to his religious fundamentalism and avowed loyalty to Boko Haram, had sought solace in Abaji because of its strong Islamic culture. According to findings, he had initially stayed with a trader in Anguwar Gbakiya before renting a one-room apartment Anguwar Asharawa in Abaji. A man, Abdullahi Mohammed said: "Until we heard the news, Mallam Kabiru Sokoto has been a quiet and a deep Muslim who is versed in Quran and Hadith. He is so respected that sometimes, he leads Subh (early morning prayers). He lives a simple life and you cannot see any trace of extremism in him. The fact that he sells provisions does not make us to suspect him of any link to Boko Haram."
But the question on many lips is: Who is Kabiru Sokoto? Even security agencies have found it difficult to unravel the identity of this wanted man. A few snippets however revealed that he has a degree in Physics and Chemistry which confirmed security reports in the last one year that the Boko Haram sect has been using Improvise Explosive Devices (IEDs) in most of their deadly operations. A source said: "Kabiru Sokoto must have been one of the key members of the intellectual wing of Boko Haram. He is probably one of the covert members of the sect providing scientific support and probably identifying targets to be attacked." To confirm this lead, investigation showed that the police have been on the trail of Kabiru Sokoto since the Christmas Day bomb blast at St.Theresa's Catholic Church in Madalla , Niger State. Preliminary enquiry by the police had uncovered Kabiru Sokoto as one of the masterminds of the Madalla bomb explosions. It was gathered that attempts to track down the suspect led to last Friday clues on his presence at the Borno Governor's Lodge in Asokoro District, Abuja .
How he landed in Abuja
There are different versions on the mission of Kabiru Sokoto in Abuja . While a source claimed that he had come to meet a friend, Ibrahim Umar Abba, who is studying for his Master's Degree in London , the Borno State Government is suspecting mischief. Intelligence report indicated that the Governor of Borno State, Alhaji Kashim Shettima was scheduled to arrive in Abuja last Friday evening and stay at the Governor's Lodge. But some commitments delayed him in Maiduguri forcing the governor to come to the FCT on Saturday.
A reliable source added: "Maybe, there was a mission to kill the governor. The coincidence was just too much and psychologically devastating to the governor."
The Borno State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Inuwa Bwala, said the state government suspected a plot to eliminate Governor Kashim Shettima.
Bwala said: "The intrigues and drama of the reported escape of the alleged Boko Haram suspect arrested at the Borno Governor's Lodge in Abuja from the police does not only sound fairy tale, it justifies our suspicion to the effect that there may be a grand conspiracy intended to either embarrass the Governor and Government of Borno state, or to eliminate Governor Kashim Shettima.
"Suffice it to raise some posers, the answers to which may give a clue into the seeming mystery: If the man escaped while under escort, how can a man possibly in handcuffs outrun more than a platoon of armed policemen?
"Could the alleged sympathizers of Boko Haram which Mr. President said have infiltrated the security agencies facilitate the escape? Could the arrest and escape stories not be a phantom arrangement after all? From which point did the police radar picked the said suspect in Zuba? Why was the whole drama headed for the Borno Governor's lodge in particular?
In its official reaction through the Secretary to the State Government, Ambassador Baba Ahmed Jidda, said what happened at its Lodge was a security breach.
The state also gave a graphic picture of how Kabiru Sokoto gained entrance into its Lodge.
Jidda said: "When we first heard about this incident, His Excellency Governor Kashim Shettima immediately ordered an investigation and this is what we found. On the evening of Thursday, January 5, one Ibrahim Umar Abba, an indigene of Borno State and a post-graduate student at the University of Birmingham in the UK , called the Permanent Secretary of the Borno State Liaison Office in Abuja .
"He said he was scheduled to catch a British Airways flight back to the UK the following day and would like to spend the night at the Governor's Lodge in Abuja . The permanent secretary, who at the time was in Maiduguri , granted Ibrahim Abba Umar permission to spend the night at the lodge.
"When Ibrahim Umar Abba turned up at the lodge, he came with two other persons, one of them an Air force officer, the other a civilian. Neither of them is known to His Excellency the Governor, or to any other official of the Borno State Government.
"It turned out that the security agencies were on the trail of one of the three men, later identified as Kabiru Sokoto. The security agents arrived at the lodge and arrested the three "guests" as well as all the staff of the Governor's Lodge.
"I will like to state emphatically that neither His Excellency Governor Kashim Shettima nor any other top official of the Borno State Government ever knew the said Kabiru Sokoto or the other two men.
"In fact, their surreptitious gaining of entry into the lodge where His Excellency often stays during his visits to Abuja is a very serious breach of security which has caused acute embarrassment to the State Government."
The state government said it could not have harboured a member of the sect that had killed some stalwarts of the ruling All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) in the state in the last one year.
It said: "I will also like to remind the public that in the last one year alone, many leaders of the Borno State ANPP have been assassinated by suspected members of the Jama'atu ahlus Sunnah Lid'dawa'ti wal Jihad. They include the late Awagana Ali Ngala, then North East Vice Chairman of ANPP; Alhaji Modu Fannami Gubio, ANPP gubernatorial candidate Borno State; Honourable Mustafa Baale, Chairman of Jere Local Government; Fannami Ngranam, ANPP Chairman for Jere Local Government; Goni Modu Sheriff, Chairman of Ngala Local Government and many others.
"How therefore can the Borno State ANPP chapter and the state government that it controls possibly be in cahoots with or knowingly shelter a suspected member of the sect thought to be behind the cold blooded murder of so many of our leaders?
"The truth of the matter is that the incident was a major security breach by men who have the sinister intention to cause harm to His Excellency Governor Kashim Shettima, but for the providence of God. They have been plotting this for a long time and they succeeded in penetrating the Governor's Lodge and spending a night there due to the sloppy breach of procedure by an innocent government official.
"I therefore wish to urge the public to ignore the malicious, wicked and illogical insinuations being made by some people that the Borno State Government knowingly harboured suspected members of a sect. It is a wicked attempt to turn truth on its head."
Yet a different version of Kabiru's movement
A different dimension to the story of Kabiru was in respect of his link with an Air Force officer, who was in his company. This confirmed the fears of the President that members of the sect have infiltrated security agencies and government officials.
Another reliable source said: "The suspect left Maiduguri on Friday via Kaduna . On getting to Kaduna , he sought the assistance of an Air Force to provide him escort to Abuja to catch a flight to London .
"Aware that the security agencies had been on his trail, he could not get a safe place to sleep. He decided to go to Borno Governor's Lodge to seek assistance to sleep overnight as an indigene of the state.
"Oblivious that he is a Boko Haram member, the Permanent Secretary in charge of the Lodge decided to be magnanimous to give him free accommodation for a night.
"But intelligence agents trailing the suspect on the phone succeeded in tracing him to the Lodge through a GPRS device.
"This led to the storming of the Lodge in the early hours of Saturday leading to the arrest of the serving military officer and some staff on duty.
"But after interaction with the staff of the Lodge, they were released by the police on bail pending the conclusion of a comprehensive investigation."
His arrest and escape
The manner of the arrest of Kabiru Sokoto suggested that the police got the right information from an insider.
A source in Asokoro said: "We had an unusual invasion of the Governor's Lodge at about 4am when a truckload of Mobile Policemen from Zone 7. None of us could understand
"The invasion must have followed a tip-off. The suspect was arrested early on Saturday morning while in hiding at the Liaison Office in Abuja . He is said to be in transit to London ."
"They succeeded in arresting everybody at the Lodge including the cooks and others. Upon initial interrogation, all the support staff at the Lodge were later released by the police."
The flop and headache for Ringim
Barely 48 hours after his arrest, Kabiru Sokoto miraculously escaped from the custody of a five-man police team that took him to Abaji for a search of his home. There were unconfirmed reports that some youths had waylaid the police team to set the Boko Haram member free. Other allegations border on monetary inducement and conspiracy within the police hierarchy. Irrespective of the argument, the IGP got a query to wit amidst a battle for survival; the Commissioner of Police in charge of the investigation, Alhaji Zakari Biu has been suspended and placed under house arrest; and the five policemen who unofficially released the suspect are languishing in the worst of detention facilities.
The police officers and their men could also not find an answer to the miraculous escape of Kabiru Sokoto.
It was learnt that a crack in police management over Ringim's likely tenure extension might have accounted for the conspiracy which led to the escape of Kabiru Sokoto.
Another source added: "I think some senior police officers were opposed to the proposed tenure extension for Ringim leading to the conspiracy behind the escape of Kabiru Sokoto.
"There has been no doubt a crack within the police management. They have just been tolerating themselves.
"The ongoing investigation is also being viewed from the angle of a syndicate within the police working covertly against the IGP.
"Although no one has been identified with this conspiracy theory, the police believe that there might be more to the escape as the way the suspect was treated was unprofessional.
"Those policemen arrested in connection with the incident might provide further lead on this argument."
As the nation's await the outcome of a panel raised by the National Security Adviser, Gen. Azazi Owoye, it is obvious that the police may not remain the same with the disappearance of Kabiru. For the IGP and Biu, the mystery of the suspect's disappearance remains a dent on their career in the police which will end in February. The IGP has lost an opportunity to extend his tenure by a year.
A police source said: "Prior to the escape of Kabiru Sokoto, what was on the card has been the extension of the tenure of the IGP. But with this latest, the presidency has foreclosed the extension of Ringim's tenure because it can no longer be justified.
"In fact, the IGP had wanted to use the arrest of Kabiru Sokoto to strengthen his case for the extension of his tenure and justify the President's claim that Boko Haram has infiltrated government circle.
"Those pushing for the extension of Ringim's tenure had cited the prevalent insecurity in the country especially the Boko Haram menace. They told the President that it may take a new IGP three to six months to settle down and members of the dreadful sect may take advantage of the situation to unleash more terror attacks. They wanted one-year extension for Ringim.
"But that extension agenda has backfired now with his job on the line and the entire career overshadowed by the escape of the Boko Haram member."
Until the long arm of the law catches with the suspect, Nigerians will still be asking: WHO IS KABIRU SOKOTO? Not even his wife and children in detention could be of help to the police on this mysterious and influential Boko Haram member.

Day Two
The second day of the trip started mostly like the first: lots of rain, but in a different state. The gray, sodden clouds didn't completely dampen the scenery, however, as the mountainous terrain and wide vistas in Western Montana were still breathtaking. In this part of the country, the varied scenery and largeness of the landscape is a marvel to a native Midwesterner who's used to rusty, abandoned industrial sites or flat, rural monotony.
It was all too easy to draw comparisons between the people who make up this country and the stereotypes we affix to them. To a small-town Montana rancher, the burned-out crack houses in post-industrial Detroit must seem like the real-life embodiment of a RoboCop movie, while the snow-capped peaks and wide-open spaces of the Treasure State must seem pure and unspoiled to a Detroiter. But that Montana rancher likely hasn't had the opportunity to discover the beauty beneath that Motor City blight, and the Detroiter may be surprised—as I was—at all the signs posted in those seemingly idyllic mountain towns, imploring residents not to get swept up in meth. It's the scourge of small-town America, particularly out west.
I made another gas stop in Montana, and this time I thought the C4's electrical system was giving me a new problem to deal with. After about 450 miles, there was no way the digital readout for the fuel level should have been so high. I was pleasantly surprised, however, when the pump clicked off, yielding an average mileage of 27.8 miles per gallon for that leg of the trip.
It took several more hours to drive the length of Montana, along I-90 and I-94—nearly 700 miles altogether, or approximately the distance from my Michigan home to Boston. And this was just one state. I ended the day in Bismarck, North Dakota, making about 800 miles for the day. I filled up and checked the mileage again, which had increased to more than 29 mpg since the last stop. Wow. That 3.07 axle was a performance ratio, all right, albeit for fuel economy.
No problems popped up with the car in the first couple of days. I kept that to myself when I checked in with others along the road. I'm not superstitious, but it was sort of like not uttering anything about a no-hitter for fear of jinxing it.
Day Three
Bismarck, North Dakota is a boomtown these days. The oil-and-gas industry has more stakes in the ground there than Starbucks has coffee shops in Seattle. The traffic is heavy, and finding a room the night before was difficult. As I headed east out of the city, I was thinking how clean and well-kept the highway appeared—especially compared with the neglected condition of most Detroit-area highways.
The balance to that myopic opinion came with the local news on the radio, which described how North Dakota's towns were struggling to deal with the immense amount of trash that had come with the truckers of the burgeoning oil and gas businesses. Besides the burger wrappers and cigarette butts, the most contentious problem was the plastic bottles of urine that truckers were leaving on roadsides throughout the state.
Day three was a short one on the road, as I stopped in the Minneapolis area by the early afternoon to catch up with an old friend and colleague, Anh Le, who served as the art director at Corvette Fever back in the early '90s. At the same company, I was the managing editor of Musclecar Review.
By the way: That more-or-less-flat leg of the trip between Bismarck and Minneapolis returned 30.3 mpg from the Corvette. I was beyond impressed. I also hadn't experienced any problems with the car, apart from those already known at purchase, including the airbag light and a low-coolant lamp that flickered on from time to time, despite the system being full. I was heading into my final day of the drive having avoided a roadside help call to Editor Heath.
06| The west is still filled with well-preserved old cars, and there are more than few on the outskirts of Billings, Montana. The Ford wagon in the foreground seems like the perfect candidate for an LS7 engine and Corvette-suspension swap. 07| Yes, the speedometer works into the three-digit range. We tested it in rural Montana, just to make sure. 08| Interstates 90 and 94 in Montana offer a bounty of scenic photo ops. 09| A decision was made to not test the reasoning behind this road's ominous name. 10| Curbside in Glendive, Montana. We were unable to locate the $1.50 hotel rooms, sadly.

CLU college editor honored for article
THOUSAND OAKS — The opinion page editor of the student newspaper at California Lutheran University has been recognized for her writing.
Caitlin Coomber won a second-place Mark of Excellence Award for editorial writing from the Society of Professional Journalists. She was honored for her piece about a controversy involving a speaker at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo.
Coomber is a junior at CLU majoring in communication and political science. She was opinion editor of the Echo during the spring semester.
This is the first award that the Echo, which was started 49 years ago, has won in the competition. The paper was competing against student newspapers from other four-year universities, including the University of Southern California, UCLA and Stanford University.
The awards were presented May 1 at the society's spring conference for Region 11 at the University of San Francisco.

Maryport tot Lillie-Mai Jackson fronts new meningitis campaign
Last updated at 21:03, Thursday, 15 March 2012
Just over a year ago a 14-week-old Maryport baby contracted meningitis – changing her life and that of her family forever.
Now Belinda Little and Rupert Jackson, the parents of Lillie-Mai, are allowing their little girl to be used as the focal point for a campaign designed to ensure that others do not suffer the horrors they have faced.
Lillie-Mai's picture has been used on a poster to highlight a meningitis awareness campaign being launched with the support of the Meningitis Research Foundation, charity worker Stuart McDougall and the Times & Star.
The poster displays a check list of the earliest symptoms of meningitis.
Campaigners will be at Dunmail Park, Workington, tomorrow to pack bags to raise money for the Meningitis Foundation and a fund to buy artificial legs for Lillie-Mai, who lost both legs and an arm to the disease.
Posters will be distributed to doctors' surgeries, play groups and other locations around West Cumbria.
Rupert, of Hillside, this week recalled every parent's worst nightmare as he explained the importance for people to recognise the symptoms of meningitis.
He said: "We thought Lillie-Mai simply had a cold. By the time we saw the rash that everyone talks about with meningitis it was too late.
"She was already on her way to losing both her legs, an arm and nearly her life."
Belinda said they had been treating Lillie-Mai for a cold and at first she responded to medicine to reduce a temperature but later became quite poorly.
But when they noticed a rash 24 hours after the cold symptoms appeared, they immediately knew what it was and dialled 999.
Ambulance officers gave Lillie-Mai penicillin to stop the virus spreading to her brain.
On several occasions medical experts advised the family to say goodbye to their baby because she was not expected to survive.
But the couple hung on to hope as their daughter held onto life.
Even when her legs and arm were amputated, they refused to let go.
Now, more than a year on, Lillie-Mai is a happy little girl who sits up, gets herself around the floor and is starting to speak.
Her parents know what is before her, however. She will need more operations and, most importantly, she will need the kind of artificial legs not available on the NHS.
Lillie-Mai's legs were amputated above the knee. If she is ever to walk properly she will need artificial legs that bend at the knees. They cost £25,000 a pair and will need to be replaced regularly while she grows.
It is a huge burden for a small family – and that is another reason they want to be involved with this campaign.
Belinda said: "Maryport people have been so generous. Not just Maryport but people from all over. We've even had cheques through the post from the United States."
Mr Jackson thanked those who had helped to fund posters and banners for the campaign, including Dobie's Charitable Trust, Iggesund Paper Board and the Ambulance Service.
A trust has been set up for Lillie-Mai which is administered and overseen by lawyers.

Sean St Ledger is hoping not to lose too much sleep over the prospect of trying to keep Thierry Henry and Nicolas Anelka at bay.
The 25-year-old Republic of Ireland defender is in line to win his eighth senior cap in Saturday's 2010 FIFA World Cup™ play-off clash with France at Croke Park before heading to Paris for the return leg next Wednesday.
Ireland's chances of making South Africa 2010 could depend largely on how he and partner Richard Dunne cope with the threat of the French strikeforce, and the Middlesbrough stopper knows just how tough a task that could be. Asked if that thought was keeping him awake at night, St Ledger said: "I don't fancy facing Anelka and Henry on two hours' sleep.
"It's a daunting prospect. I have watched them on a Saturday night on Match of the Day, I have seen people trying to catch Henry and it's a scary thought. But at the same time, I look forward to it. It's one of those games I have always dreamt of playing in and it's only a few days away.
It's a daunting prospect. But at the same time, I look forward to it. It's one of those games I have always dreamt of playing in,
"I want to play in the Premier League at some point - that's why I joined Middlesbrough - and I would have to be playing against these players week in and week out, so it will be a good judge of how far I can go or how far I have gone. But only time will tell."
If manager Giovanni Trapattoni sticks with what has become his first-choice defence in recent games, St Ledger will be the junior member of a quartet which will also include the hugely-experienced Dunne, Kevin Kilbane and John O'Shea, who have amassed 214 caps between them. However, his speed across the ground could prove vital, although he is not expecting to be able to show Barcelona hitman Henry a clean pair of heels.
St Ledger said: "I don't know about racing Henry - I'm not that quick. It is going to be a difficult game for us, but Kevin, Richard, Shay (Given) and John have played against these players week in and week out and have had the experience, and I am sure they will pass that on to me."
Experience is something St Ledger is gathering by the minute on the international stage having only made his senior debut against Nigeria in May. But Trapattoni had no qualms about pitching him into battle with Italy last month, when his late header looked to have clinched a famous victory until the reigning champions snatched a draw at the death.
The defender said: "Against Italy, I said it was the biggest game of my career, and I feel like I am repeating myself again. It is obviously a huge, huge game, just one below the World Cup finals, and you can't get much bigger than that."

So the Phil Lynott Tribute band started things out tonight and to be honest I was bored as hell during their set and so was most of the crowd. Even the two songs that everybody knows only got poliet applause of recognition. I'm sorry but i've tried to get into Thin Lizzy but everything i've heard bored me to death. I honestly don't hear what the big deal is with them. They're just a so-so rock band in my eyes.
BLS put on their typical show. It was enjoyable until Zakk decided he was gonna make his guitar solo go for about 12 minutes. When I saw them headline back in May his solo was only about 5 or 6 minutes. But as the opener he decides to do a solo that is as long as three songs It's a shame to because the crowd was into it the whole time up until the solo. After that they never got the crowd back. I wonder when Zakk is gonna wake up and realize that nobody, not even his fans give a shit about his guitar solos anymore.
Great show by Priest, as far as i'm conserned they've put together the setlist of the year for this tour. Halford still being able to pull off some of the high notes he does at age 60 is unbelieveable. Even though there was a time or two he didn't even bother to try and hit them like on the chorus of The Sentinel. I'll give him a pass though since he nailed it on Painkiller The band must've have forgot that they were in a indoor venue because during the first couple minutes of Rapid Fire the smoke was so thick you couldn't even see anybody on stage. They were still able to do their pyros though I would think in an outdoor venue the flames would probably be a lot bigger.
I really like Halford's stage demeanor. It almost seems like he's possesed by something with the way he looks down to the ground and slowly stalks the stage. I know he used to use a telepromter but i'm not sure about that now. Because he was moving around the stage very well and I didn't really notice anything that looked like one anywhere. During BTL Halford just let the crowd sing the whole song. He mouthed the words on stage to guide everyone but the vocals were all us. It's hard to pick just one highlight from this show. I would say Rapid Fire, Metal Gods, Judas Rising, Victim Of Changes, Starbreaker, Night Crawler, Beyond The Realms Of Death, Blood Red Skies and Electric Eye were my favorites of the night. Everything was played great the only problem I had is the soft/electric version of Diamonds & Rust. Yes, I know they've done it before but slow part has never worked for me. That was hardly enough to ruin the whole show though.
Just in case anybody working for the Main Street Armory in Rochester reads this, I just wanna tell you to please book more metal shows there. It's the perfect place for bands that can sell out the mid range venues. Plus, it's general admission so how can you not want more metal concerts there
Well, I managed to survive seeing Anthrax and Priest on back to back nights It was a great couple of days and at least I know if I have to do something like this again in the future I can make it through
Last edited by Sanitarium78; 11-18-2011 at 04:52 AM.
Nice review. Zakk does tend to lose momentum during every show - at least this time it wasn't because of a 15 minute piano interlude.
I wanted to ask which version of Diamonds and Rust they were doing, so thanks for answering that - now I'll know when to take a piss break & grab more beer.
Can you tell me when each band hit the stage? I'm seeing this show in Toronto on the 22nd and my buddy doesn't want to miss Thin Lizzy (he's a Damon Johnson fan).
same here time wise - I am going to the Jersey show tomorrow night - thanks -
I hope that by the time they come back to Europe before this tour finishes that they change the set. They've been playing this exact one all year now, and Europe has already seen it. They should look to change it before doing a second leg.
It's a great set though.
2/7 Alice Cooper

To the two posters asking about set time:
The doors opened at 530 and Lizzy came on around 630 and played until about 720. The change over was very quick, BLS started around 740 and played until 830. Priest came on around 915 and played until about 1145.

I didn't like BLS before this show..and now I really hate them! What a shit band with shit fans - if they pump up this guys ego so much that he does a ridiculous 15 minute guitar solo... fuck that guy.. everything I hate about modern music. For a big rock star he doesn't even have a good stage presence.. and never addresses the crowd or anything. Garbage.
on a bright note.. Priest was fucking awesome. Rob sounded better than I expected. He does look tired - but he is old and has been doing these mega long sets for a while now, so I give him credit. Great to see them in venue like this one last time. I have a feeling they will do more shows, but most likely a big appearance here or there.

I've been a comic fan ever since I picked up the first issue of Astonishing X-men. I truly enjoyed Whedon's run with that comic and how much he made me care for each character in the main roster. Heck I even really felt sorry for Wing and how he died. It wasn't until I picked up other comics that I realized how good I had it with that 24 issue run. Bendis, Fraction...the list can go on and on. I found myself disappointed in the mainstream comics and nearly gave up on reading. At least until I started reading Gillen and found myself enjoying these characters once more!
I'm a huge fan of Uncanny and the Extinction team he's created! Gillen is the reason for this surprising turnaround in my comic interest. He's changed old favorites, Colossus, to give them a newfound interest and brought back old enemies that I had little idea existed (Phalanx). However it's his work with Sinister that's truly awesome. If anyone hasn't read Uncanny X-men 14 I suggest you go spend five bucks on it immediately. It made me love the guy again.
Could things change? Could he go full retard? Sure, but I'm enjoying the ride for now. I'm sure there are others around that enjoy Gillen as much as myself and this thread is for them! Jason Aaron can't get all the love around here, eh?
