Lagos — The decision of the Federal Government to declare 2007 as the Minerals and Mines Year, was premised on the fact that the sector should be thrown open to investors from across the globe. With enormous opportunities in the sector to grow the economy and depend less on oil, an international mining conference was held in Abuja penultimate week to put potential investors on notice. Godwin Haruna writes
From the famous mining capitals of the world in the United States, Canada, South Africa and other mining-dependent economies such as Chile, China, India, Japan and many others, they were all in Abuja. The roll call also included both local and international financial institutions. Their mission was to attend the two-day International Mining Conference with the theme: "Unearthing Nigeria's Hidden Treasures", which held at the Congress Hall of Transcorp Hilton Hotel.
The conference was organised by the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development to showcase Nigeria's multiple mineral deposits to the outside world. It was a well-attended meeting in which eager participants were glued to their seats for the various presentations spanning two days.
Some of the participants also visited two sites of the mineral deposits on excursion to have a feel of where the real action is. The selected sites for the trip include the Okaba Coal Mine in Kogi State and the Tsohon Birnin Gwari Goldfield in Kaduna State.
The Kogi District covers about 225,000 hectares of Anambra Basin. It is said that two areas within the district have been explored to a limited degree. The more northern of the two areas, Ogboyaga, has the greatest amount of available drill data, where 27 holes have been drilled and cored. The Kogi area of interest is Okaba where there is a small idle surface mine.
The Tsohon Birnin Gwari gold site is within the Kushaka schist belt of northwestern Nigeria. It was an active gold mine in the 1930s where over 600oz of gold were produced. The gold mineralisation is within a series of metasediments that lie in a number of isoclinal fold structures trending N-S and with a strong foliation parallel to the axial planes of the folds. The Kushaka belt is also associated with another prominent site of gold mineralisation refereed to as Kwaga site.
Beyond these, Nigeria is reputed to harbour more than 34 mineral resources scattered in all the states of the federation. Among them are tantalite, kaoline, mica, baryte, bitumen, diatomite and a number of them.
Declaring the conference open, President Olusegun Obasanjo, who was represented by Obong Ufot Ekaette, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, stressed that his administration declared 2007 as the Minerals and Mines Year (MAMY) as a practical demonstration of the critical need for the strategic management and development of Nigeria's extensive mineral resource endowment.
According to the president, the idea of MAMY was to provide a platform to consolidate a broad spectrum of initiatives, which have been implemented to create a conducive and competitive environment for mining investment; raise consciousness about the opportunities and challenges of the evolving mining sector; and engage pertinent stakeholder communities in ways that enhance returns on investments.
He said although the initiative was still young, MAMY has already ushered in a series of remarkable gains. This, he added, include the commencement of the first module of classes marking the inception of the Nigerian Institute for Mining and Geosciences after a long time.
Obasanjo reiterated that the investment conference was a demonstration of the administration's abiding faith in the private sector as the engine of growth of the national economy.
"The last quarter of 2006 witnessed the privatization of core assets of the Nigerian Mining Corporation, which had been a major vehicle for government control of the mining sector. In addition, a number of initiatives have been put in place to promote optimal private sector participation and accelerate foreign direct investment in the sector". he stressed.
He told the diverse conference delegates that the measures enjoy the force of law and are stipulated in the Minerals and Mining Act, which the senate has just passed into law, adding: "Of a truth, we can now say that Nigeria is 'open for business' as a choice mining destination".
The president acknowledged that Nigeria had not featured on the global radar screen as a serious mining destination. He stated that in view of the enormous mineral endowment in the country, the Federal Government has taken substantial steps to build investor confidence and attract mining capital.
"The Mining Cadastre has received scores of applications since its opening and licences will be issued to qualified applicants in accordance with the 'first come, first served' principle now that the law has come into existence. The elimination of discretion and the issuance of permits on the basis of objective criteria is just one feature of the new legislation which is informed by best practice examples drawn from across the globe", Obasanjo said.
He said the Act guarantees tenure security, offers a generous selection of incentives and makes provision for diligent environmental stewardship and community development.
Earlier in a welcome address, Prof. Leslye Obiora, Minister of Mines and Steel Development, stated that the mining industry should be a vehicle for economic growth and should provide for the creation of valuable infrastructure, employment and should contribute to the improvement of the quality of life of the people. Obiora noted that meeting these goals would depend largely on the ability of the sector to access international and local investment funds and commodity markets.
"Although we have economic mineral deposits, exploration and exploitative efforts in the past years either by the private sector or the public mining institutions have been grossly inadequate. Informal artisanal mining, particularly for gold, tin, tantalite, gemstones and small-scale quarrying of industrial minerals are the dominant activities in the mining sector", she said.
The minister stressed further that the overall strategic plan took cognisance of this and as being executed can only lead to a mining sector that is not only prosperous, but also socially, economically and environmentally sustainable with broad community and political support. This, she added, will assist the government in its poverty alleviation programmes and contribute to the general economic development of the nation. She stated that a number of training programmes have been introduced to ensure the fulfillment of expectations in the sector.
According to the minister, they have also initiated an open and transparent information, education and communication campaign targeted at all stakeholders through the promotion of regular institutional linkages, cross-visits and site-visits.
She stated that they have set targets and milestones for activities that would form the bedrock of investment inflows. These include enactment of a new mining law, which the minister announced to the gathering had been assented to before the commencement of the conference. However, needless controversy appears to have dogged the path of the new law as the senate leadership have faulted the procedures leading to its assent.
The law provides for the establishment of a Mining Cadastre Office that will transact business in a transparent and effective manner thereby reducing the processing period of mining and exploration titles. The law, Obiora disclosed, also gives the necessary legal backing to formalisation and assistance to artisanal and small-scale miners. She said applications have been received from about 400 artisanal miners cooperatives intending to buy centre operators.
Another step, the ministry has taken to attract investment flow, she said, is that the Nigerian Geological Survey Agency has started making technical information available to the public. The on-going privatisation of state-owned mining companies, remains another plank in driving investment to the sector.
According to the minister, the intentions of government in this new drive to attract the private sector include promotion of geological opportunities to foreign and local investors; simplification of procedure for obtaining permits and licenses in a transparent manner on a basis of "first come - first served"; ensuring security of tenure, certainty, credibility and competitiveness; ensuring environmental remediation and collection of revenue.
"Investors are invited to note our good mineral potential and attractive geology. Nigeria also has a glorious mining history for minerals like tin, columbite, coal, gold and lead-zinc. Our fiscal incentives are very attractive. Components like tax holidays, import tax exemptions are already in place", the minister said.
She said Nigeria has over 145,000 km of paved road while the railway network has a total of 3505km, which is presently being modernised to standard guage with plans for new routes. She said there are three main deep seaports in Lagos, and the others in Onne, Port Harcourt, Calabar and Warri. She added that there were 17 standard airports with some other airstrips and four international airports.
She gave current power installed capacity in Nigeria as 5,600 mega watts and expressed the optimism that it will get to 10,000 mega watts by the end of the year. "Local costs of fuels power, labour and gas are among the lowest in Africa and investors can be assured of low operating costs and high return on investment", Obiora told the conference delegates.
The Senate President, Chief Ken Nnamani was represented at the forum by his deputy, Alhaji Ibrahim Mantu. Speaking on the occasion, Mantu praised the doggedness of the minister of mines and steel development in actualising the legal framework for the mining sector in Nigeria. He said as someone imported from the Diaspora to become minister, he did not know initially that Obiora was abreast of developments in the country.
He said the minister had mounted so much pressure (or was it lobby?) on him to have the Mining Act passed at an incredible speed. He stated that the new Act now doused in controversies over the procedure adopted in its passage, was given accelerated hearing in both Houses of the National Assembly because of the socio-economic importance to the nation.
Mantu observed that the nation's mineral endowments were located in the manner of the country's federal character in such a way that when full exploitation begins, no part of the country would complain. According to him, the mining of the minerals will put to rest the squabbles over oil and resource control agitations.
He expressed his delight over the avalanche of available information for investors on the different minerals and where there are located. He expressed the willingness of the senate to support the efforts of the investors to create wealth for Nigerians.
Also speaking in a keynote address, Mr. Pranod Mittal of Global Steel, Uk, confessed that when he first signified his interest of coming into Nigeria, his family could not understand why. This, he said, was because of the bad image problem of the country, which associated Nigerians with scams.
However, Mittal stated that since his foray into the country, he has been transformed into a great believer of the country and would like it to grow economically. He said the president has restored transparency and openness to governance and this has re-invigorated investors' confidence in the country. He harped on the role of education in the development of any country and urged leaders not to treat issues on the subject with levity.
Chief Cornelius Adebayo, Minister of Works, Transport and Aviation, who chaired the afternoon session said the administration has not toyed with laying a solid infrastructural foundation upon which the nation's industrialisation could take off. He said the amount of road construction being undertaken by the administration in this dispensation has never been witnessed before now.
Adebayo stated that rail construction has also been re-energised just as measures have been adopted to ensure air safety in the country. According to him, the environment has been made conducive for investors to reap from their investments in the sector. He added that investment opportunities are such a long term investment that they do not mature until such a long time.
Also speaking during the afternoon session, Mr. Mandla Gantsho, Vice President, Infrastructure, Private Sector and Regional Integration of the African Development Bank, noted that Africa has become more attractive for investment opportunities in recent years. Gantsho maintained that government remained the catalyst and driver for investment.
He stated that it is a paradox that African countries with vast mineral wealth are among the poorest in the world. He stated that the mining sector offered huge opportunities to unlock Africa's economic potential and urged the delegates to take advantage of Nigeria's huge mineral deposits.
In his own address during the committee session, Mr. Ruel Khoza from South Africa, noted that globalisation could not be reversed and that it is much more diverse than hitherto thought. He opined that Asia's foray into the continent's economic arena was not an entirely bad idea. He said it was time Africa threw herself into the globalisation ring.
However, Khoza noted that as at the moment the equation was so unbalanced since the developed nations own the field, the ball and the whistle, a situation that has made things difficult for less endowed players in the world. He posited that if people want to work in Africa, African people must define the terms of reference. "In as much as we need investments, this rule must be kept", Khoza declared. He said South Africa has a long way to go in terms of mining development, but that there was steady progress towards achieving the ideal.
Many other papers such as the Legal and Regulatory Framework chaired by the eminent jurist, Justice Chukwudifu Oputa, Mineral Endowment, Investor Confidence, Institutional Development were presented at the conference. If MAMY 2007 opened Nigeria's huge mining opportunities to the world, the international mining conference surely cleared the way for a diverse group of foreign investors to participate in Nigeria's hidden treasures.

The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue
this wiki
Rob McGroarty, the owner of the appliances, and whom they refer to as "the Master", is working in a laboratory where he tends to injured animals. While working on a thesis the computer crashes, thanks to a bunch of terrible computer viruses infecting Wittgenstein, an old TLW-728 supercomputer. The appliances, along with the rat Ratso who found Wittgenstein, then seek to help Rob by finding Wittgenstein to reverse the effects of his virus, hence recovering the master's thesis. Meanwhile, in a dual plot of the film, Mack, Rob's lab assistant, plots to sell the injured animals Rob had been tending, to a place called "Tartaras Laboratories", the same place that old-skinned Sebastian (--an old monkey, that Rob's tending for--) with his hand when he was just a baby. When the appliances find Wittgenstein, they discover him abandoned, all alone and run-down and broken in the basement. The miserable supercomputer reveals that he is living on one rare tube, named the "WFC 11-12-55". Radio has that kind of tube, which possibly means he is a computer, too. The appliances learn that unless they find a replacement quickly, Wittgenstein's tube will blow and lead to his apparent death. In an attempt to revive Wittgenstein to his superior state, Radio and Ratso go to the college's storage building to find the hard-to-find WFC 11-12-55 tube. When they come back with the last apparent tube for miles, Radio accidentally breaks the tube, and it seems that all hope is lost. Wittgenstein does his best with all his might, but he blows his tube with a big explosion and apparently dies, powering down. The appliances are then very grumpy at Radio, and he feels terrible. He then sacrifices his own tube which turns out to be the very rare tube they had been looking for, thus leaving himself as a lifeless appliance. Apparently the appliances replaced the tube in the nick of time; with the boosted power of the new tube, Wittgenstein wakes up, miraculously regenerates the other smashed tubes connected to himself and is completely revived as good as new. By the end of the film, the appliances restore Rob's thesis and stop Mack from selling the injured animals, Radio's tube is replaced with a new one (hence his revival) and all is well.

Although this is the second film released, it appears to be the second in plot sequence. This is indicated in The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars by the fact that the group is already familiar with Wittgenstein the supercomputer, and by the fact that he is referred to as "our old college buddy." Also, Rob proposes to his girlfriend in this movie, while in the third movie the two are married with a baby. This is because both the films were in production at the time, and Goes To Mars just happened to be finished first.
On the box art, Radio is shown with the other appliances during the chase scene at the end. In the actual movie, he is not with them during that scene. Also, Kirby is depicted on the cart rather than pulling it.
The movie got mixed reviews, but most fans say it's more enjoyable than The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars.

As poverty walks on two legs…
The new figures released by the National Bureau of Statistics on the increasingly pauperized state of the Nigerian citizenry should be a cause for concern in a country where the gulf between the stupendously rich and the abjectly poor deepens by the day. According to the Bureau, Nigeria's 1996 figure of 67.1 million citizens living in "absolute poverty" with less than $1 a day has now risen to over 100 million. In 2004 when the number of Nigerian citizens wallowing in abject poverty was put at 68.7 million, the sitting President at the time, Olusegun Obasanjo insensitively declared that he knew no poor people of such description in Nigeria. Lamentably, the Bureau of Statistics' announcement of our newly attained deplorable 'height' in citizens' impoverishment coincides with news about our elites' peculiarly pachydermatous penchant for luxuries. How about the undenied report of some N1.8 billion to buy the latest jeep models for our distinguished Senators?
Sometimes, you cannot help but wonder how a country that is so blessed in human and material resources continues to breed a community of the poorest of the poor. Well, that is one of the mixed paradoxes that have led to the stunted growth of an economy that once had (and still has) the potential of being Africa's best. Today, Nigeria is a study in stupefaction. We need not ask the question: how did we get to this sorry pass? However, if we insist on asking, then we must be prepared to face the crying truth that we are the architects of this seemingly doomed fate. For as long as our crumbs of bread is being buttered by those whose major occupation is crass looting of the public treasury in whatever hue, we close our eyes to the long-term deleterious effect our inaction would have on the fortunes of millions other Nigerians who may never have access to the bigger thieves. It is that circle of deceit, more than any other thing, that has brought Nigeria to where it is today—on its wobbled knees!
In the recent past, former President Olusegun Obasanjo made it a point of duty to pooh-pooh and dispute any poverty index estimates that dare put 70 per cent of Nigerians as living below a dollar (about N160) per day. To him, the figures could not have been true as they do not reflect what he called "the present realities." Trust OBJ: he was always quick to read an imperialist's agenda to such estimates, especially if the figures were provided by any of the multilateral agencies in the United Nations. Even at that, experts had always cautioned against the needless shadow- chasing, noting that something should be done to halt the dwindling fortunes of the poor and vulnerable in our society. Nevertheless, the Obasanjo administration appeared to be entrapped in its fits of shouting brawl with the messenger rather than the message. He was too far gone in his majestic fancies that it was impossible for him to retrace his steps.
Five years after Obasanjo left office, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is being faced with the same challenge. Regardless of what the economic juggernauts in the corridors of power may say about the textbook growth in Nigeria's economy under the Jonathan administration, the NBS report indicates that the growth, no matter how minimal, is not impacting the lives of the majority as more than 70 per cent live within the crushing limits of poverty . The question is: why has the figure not changed for the better in spite of the various interventions by the federal, state and local government administrations to address the poverty question? The answer is very simple. Beyond the peripheral gestures where government after government scratch the surface, there has never been any concerted effort to truly address the poverty cancer in the country. In fact, in most cases, the rich have further mastered the art of stealing from the poor in grand style and with impunity. It is apparent that sizeable proportions of our budgets as well as huge potential national incomes end up in the hands of our kleptocratic elites.
Therefore,, today, we are being told by the NBS that our leopard is yet to change its skin. As at 2011, the NBS puts the figure of Nigerians living below a dollar per day at 115 million, an estimated 71 per cent of the total population. It is sad that, in spite of all the self-adulatory efforts by governments over the years, not even a minimal decrease in the poverty index could be said to have been recorded.
Let us peep through the figures to understand how low we have sunk in our failure to tackle this clear and present danger to our collective wellbeing. In his breakdown, the Statistician-General of Nigeria, Yemi Kale, said the percentage of Nigerians living in absolute poverty – meaning those who can afford only the bare essentials of food, shelter and clothing - rose to 60.9 per cent in 2010, compared with 54.7 per cent in 2004'. Noting that the situation may get worse, Kale declared: "It remains a paradox that, despite the fact that the Nigerian economy is growing, the proportion of Nigerians living in poverty is increasing every year."
It is not necessary here to delve into the geo-political analysis of the shapes and shades of poverty in the country as revealed by the NBS. Poverty, we must know, has no ethnic, religious or geographical coloration. The way it affects the man in Birnin-Kebbi is the same way it affects the man living in the heart of Lagos.
This, I dare say, is not the time to live in self-denial, hoping that the poverty problem will soon be a thing of the past. The rich, no matter how much they appropriate on their personal security, can never be safe in a society where many are deprived of the basic things of life. In other climes, these things are taken as the acceptable minimum. Here, there is a dearth of infrastructural development. The ones in existence are decaying by the day, no thanks to a system with an abysmal maintenance culture. Nearly all the sectors of the economy bear the brunt of an excess luggage called institutional corruption.
Unfortunately, those that are saddled with the responsibility of putting government on the sanity lane have become part of the problem. That is why it is very easy today for the executive to ferry out billions of naira from the public treasury without seeking legislative authority. That is why graft pervades our landscape. That is why many of the probe reports on systemic corruption and grand larceny in high places are sharing spaces with cockroaches and other rodents in dark closets.
Today, poverty walks on two legs. It is no longer hidden behind the plastic laughter of its victims. You do not need to go to the innermost parts of the country to see how it debases humanity. It can be seen from our rooftop mansions, if we truly want to see it. You can feel it from the way Nigerians suffer daily to eke out a living as the privileged few pillage billions upon billions of ill-gotten wealth on fanciful toys. You can see it etched on the faces of qualified job seekers who forever slap the streets, waiting on fortune to smile on them. It is visibly written on the faces of those little urchins that graduate into political thugs, terrorists, suicide bombers, hired killers and even, university campus prostitutes. It is almost certain that, if the system had offered them a better option, they would not cuddle that path of violence and doom. Poverty, in a nutshell, is not just about the absence of food, clothing or accommodation. It is about the little things we do to push the majority to the edge of insanity and turn them into demons of destruction. Out of that desperation, many have turned into enemies of the state. That, I believe, should bother us.
One thing is clear: If this despoliation continues unabated, those shoving off the NBS figures as just another data may have themselves to blame in the nearest future. Nigeria' political godfathers have sown the wind and as Prophet Isaiah once stated in the Bible, the guilty elites' offsprings shall reap the whirlwind. Each day slowly brings Nigeria closer to the reality of such observation as poverty sows deadly seeds whose harvests may make the Arab Spring so tame in contrast. And so, we ask: When poverty fights back, can the State contain the inflamed rage of the poor?

Select Local Merchants
Westminster LanesRead MoreAt Westminster Lanes, pins crash from the early morning until late at night. Here, players strap their feet into rental shoes and select the optimal ball for knocking down those poor pins, who just got back on their feet. Toes start tapping during Rock 'n' Bowl on weekends, and the alley occasionally hosts live entertainment, such as comedy shows.6471 Westminster BoulevardWestminster, CA US
CAL BOWLRead MoreOn weekend nights, Cal Bowl turns down the regular lights and turns up the black lights, making lanes glow neon for cosmic bowling. Meanwhile, players themselves supply the soundtrack as they take the mic on the karaoke stage. During the day, open bowling commences as usual, with players sending balls spinning down glossy lanes while fighting the urge to slide down after them. Between frames, guests escape to the 7,000-square-foot fun center, stocked with arcade and redemption games and four billiards tables.2500 E Carson StLakewood, CA US
AMF BowlingRead More"You're up." At Bowlmor locations from coast to coast, that message is passed between friends as they heft a ball, step to the line, and take aim. Glow-in-the-dark lanes complete with lane-side servers and banquette seating up the style factor on traditional games of bowling. These snazzy bowling lanes might be where the competition starts, but they're certainly not where it ends. That's because Bowlmor offers more than just bowling?laser tag, arcade games, mini golf, bocce, and even ropes courses make appearances at various Bowlmor locations across the country. Likewise, soda and chips fall by the wayside in favor of more upscale American fare and specialty cocktails.12141 Valley View St.Garden Grove, CA US
Concourse Bowling CenterRead MoreForty gleaming synthetic lanes sprawl the length of Concourse Bowling Center's 42,000-square-foot bowling gallery. Overhead screens keep score, and lane-illuminating lights lie in wait until 10 p.m. on weekend nights, when the audio-visual spectacle of cosmic tenpin induces squirrels to temporarily suspend hibernation and just dance. Larger parties can rent out one of the alley's VIP suites, which sequester lanes and lounge areas behind giant curtains to create fortresses of bowling solitude that can accommodate up to 320 simultaneous bowlers. When not immediately engrossed in clobbering pins, bowlers can seek out snippets of a sports game on 1 of the alley's 25 sports-tuned plasma screens, or scarf a slice of house-made pizza and an amber pint at Kingpin's Bar & Grill, located just aft of the bowling action.3364 East La Palma AvenueAnaheim, CA US
Linbrook BowlRead MoreDriving by Linbrook Bowl might inspire a double take. Not because of their classic and colorful neon signage, but because of what it advertises: the alley is open 24 hours a day. This means people can pummel pins or dance around like Fred Flintstone no matter what time it is. In addition to 40 lanes, Linbrook Bowl is equipped with an onsite coffeeshop that helps fuel players all day and night. Bowlers can also grab a drink or bite to eat at The Kopa Room, while watching a sports game on TV or listening to amateur crooners charm the crowd with karaoke.201 S Brookhurst StAnaheim, CA US
Palos Verdes BowlRead MorePalos Verdes Bowl has been open for more than half a century, but just because it's reached middle age doesn't mean it lacks modern amenities. On Wednesday and Saturday evenings, the alley's karaoke hours turn civilians into celebs as they rock out and star in music videos in front of a greenscreen. The stage also plays host to professional musicians on Thursdays and Fridays. Throughout the week, bowlers can take a break to engage in winner-takes-all conversation over sliders, wings, and pizza from the onsite cafe, Maxine's, or a tall brew from the onsite bar, The Cove.24600 Crenshaw BoulevardTorrance, CA US

Krewe of Akewa Grand Bal XI [PICS]
This past Friday night, I was honored to be a part of the Krewe of Akewa's eleventh grand bal at the Knights of Columbus in Bossier City!
This past Friday night, I was honored to be a part of the Krewe of Akewa's eleventh grand bal at the Knights of Columbus in Bossier City!
The historically women's Mardi Gras krewe from Minden, LA, the Krewe of Akewa, celebrate Mardi Gras from 'Around the World' this Friday, January 30th, 2015 at the Knights of Columbus Hall on Hwy 80 in Bossier City.
Mardi Gras season is almost upon us... In fact, it kicks off in just over a week on Saturday, January 3rd with 12th Night! And that's not the only thing that will happen to kick off the Mardi Gras season!
Mardi Gras season is almost here and kicks off Saturday, January 3rd with 12th Night, an event presented in conjunction by the Krewes of Centaur and Gemini at the Bossier Civic Center!
Coronation season is almost upon us and it's a fun time to check out all Mardi Gras has to offer, as each of the area krewes' new royalty are unveiled!
The Minden, LA based women's group, the Krewe of Akewa, celebrated 10 years of Mardi Gras Friday, February 14th at the Clarion Hotel in Shreveport with style and grace.
This past Saturday night, I had the honor of hosting the Krewe of Akewa Coronation. It's their 10th year, which is quite a milestone! The event was held at Pine Hills Country Club in Minden and the theme was Gold Rush which had all of the area Mardi Gras krewes decked out in their finest Western formal wear to honor the new royalty
Have you ever looked around and thought to yourself, it sure would be nice if there was a calendar of events for Shreveport/Bossier City and the surrounding areas?
Who's thinking about Mardi Gras in Shreveport/Bossier City? We are! Even though the parades won't roll until early 2014, Mardi Gras madness never ends in the SBC!
The costumes at the Krewe of Akewa Grand Bal this past Friday night were fantastic! The ladies truly made their Cajun Fairytales come true during their fete at the Centaur Den. Big congrats to Captain Penny and the rest of the ladies!
The Krewe of Akewa is holding their Grand Bal this evening at the Centaur Den and it's theme is 'Cajun Fairytales.' Captain Penny Zimmerman told us there would be lots of fun twists to your favorite children's stories and plenty of Cajun cousine.
I dropped off five Mardi Gras dresses to the cleaners today and got a Dryel for the rest that can't be dry cleaned... I'm getting my nails done tonight and I plan to Mystic in the morning. Yep, Mardi Gras kicks off this Saturday and I CAN'T WAIT!!!

(2909 quotes found)
"I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love."
"All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him."
"The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart, the less capable you are of loving in the present."

American Airlines will expand its entertainment on demand product offering to about 400 WiFi-enabled aircraft by end-2012, after initially offering it on 15 Boeing 767-200s.
The Oneworld carrier will install the product, powered by Gogo, on more than 90 Boeing MD-80s by end-2011 and on additional MD-80s and Boeing 737-800s by end-2012.
American currently offers the product on flights operated with 15 767-200s, which are mostly used on transcontinental flights between New York and Los Angeles and New York and San Francisco.
The product allows passengers to stream content like movies and TV shows from an in-flight library to selected WiFi-enabled laptops for a fee.
"Initial customer feedback shows our entertainment on demand product is a hit with our customers, and we feel it's a great example of how we continue to deliver products our customers truly value," said Rob Friedman, American's VP for marketing.

The New Ulm District 88 School Board on Tuesday was presented the district administration's recommendations for cutting over a million dollars from next school year's budget. The need to trim the budget in such a drastic manner comes following the defeat of the District 88 levy referendum last November. Cost-cutting ideas presented to the board during Tuesday's work session included: the switch to a 4-day flexible school week, which is pending state approval, cutting the equivalent of 10 full-time teaching positions, an early retirement incentive for district staff, activity department adjustments that would include increasing participation fees, delaying uniform purchases, eliminating coach busing, attempting to collect admissions for track and softball, cutting the supply budget, and more, as well as a bus route reduction, utilizing Friends of District 88 funds, a possible freeze on textbook purchases, and other proposals. Another work session will be held on March 6th, and the final budget cuts will then be approved later in the month.

EVERETT, Wash. -- Individuals who suffered damages from the severe storms and flooding October 15 - 23, may be eligible for disaster assistance from the State of Washington, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA), even if they are insured .
"If you are under-insured or uninsured for expenses, damages or losses, we may be able to help," said Anthony Russell, the federal official in charge of long-term disaster recovery. "If your losses are not fully covered, take the first step and call FEMA's toll-free registration number, 1-800-621-FEMA (3362) to apply for assistance."
TTY serviced is available at 1-800-462-7585 for individuals who are speech or hearing impaired. Phone lines are open from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday until further notice.
Diane R. Offord, the state coordinating officer for disaster recovery, said, "Don't disqualify yourself by not registering for assistance. Often people learn later that they were eligible for benefits but incorrectly assumed otherwise because they had insurance."
The federal and state programs available include temporary housing and rental assistance, home repair and other disaster-related needs, disaster unemployment assistance and low-interest disaster loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) for homeowners, renters and businesses of all sizes.
On March 1, 2003, FEMA became part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. FEMA's continuing mission within the new department is to lead the effort to prepare the nation for all hazards and effectively manage federal response and recovery efforts following any national incident. FEMA also initiates proactive mitigation activities, trains first responders, and manages the National Flood Insurance Program and the U.S. Fire Administration.

This place is amazing, there food is fantastic , the service is amazing everything about them is good. They do need more deserts but besides that they are a great restraunt, and their delivery is great, the food comes very cleanly packaged in a very clean , organized bag. It's also great for people watching thier carbs or eating "good" carbs, they have whole wheat choices for all of their burritos and quesadillas. Nachos are amazing also

I know blockheads isnt the best mexican it definitely has great burritos. I am really disappointed about the menu changes though. They have taken a ton of the burritos off the menu and some were personal favorites. My wife always ordered one of their vegetarian burritos but now you cannot get any burritos with vegetables in it. I thin there used to be around 21 different burritos available which has been narrowed down to maybe 7 or 8. HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING.

Sure the drink deals are good, but you are getting what you pay for. Three of those big margaritas and not even a buzz? Even a regular at Kinsale would feel something after three big margaritas. They put a very dimunitive amount of tequila in these, and I'd opt for the cheap champagne, they short change the mimosas as well. Good food though.
Posted by Anonymous on 06/25/2006
their brunch special lets you choose an entree (i always get the salsa cruda omelette, which is so fresh!) and you can get a coffee or tea and UNLIMITED mimosas or champagne....all for 9.95. you can also buy a mojito or margarita for like 3.50, which i havent tried yet, but will. you also get free salsa and chips with your meal. the sock monkeys are cute and the servers are quite polite (esp. compared with the normal nyc server). it is plenty of food for a reasonable price. not really authentic mexican, i think, but it is good food with a sw flair.

Oversized burritos, margaritas, and a ton of delicious chips and salsa. Not for the food snob as quantity may trump quality. Not for the atmosphere snob, either; you'll share dinner with monkey portraits. I still love it.

Going to Blockheads with a group of friends for the dinner special and drinks is a great night out. It's a good value, and the food tastes really fresh. The service is really friendly and attentive, they were really good about getting a table pretty fast for a large group with no res. We were there for a while one night and got a free round of tequilla shots for our whole table - about 11 people. Their margaritas and mojitos are awesome, esp. for $3.
Posted by Anonymous on 01/04/2006
This a great place to get really good food at an unbeatable price. I love thier mini-good burritos with salad - which I am able to get in a wheat tortilla with brown rice at no extra charge. It may be the case that Blockheads does not taste like authentic Mexican but all I know is that I get a good frresh meal at a great price. I highly recommend it!

Squatter accused of selling metal components of Sebastian home
SEBASTIAN - A man police said had been squatting at a home for several months removed much of the aluminum and metal exterior parts of the house while he was there, according to a warrant affidavit.
Scott Willig, 39, had been staying at the vacant home in the 900 block of Schumann Drive without the owner's permission, Sebastian police said. A Schumann resident said Willig introduced himself as her new neighbor, but became concerned last month when Willig began removing the gutters, the garage door, the window screens and more metal from the home, according to a report.
Police contacted the homeowners, who said Willig was not a renter and didn't have permission to be there, the report states. A local secondhand metal dealer told police Willig had sold them 135 pounds of metal last month.
Officers charged Willig with burglary and grand theft Thursday. He remained at the Indian River County Jail in lieu of $20,000 bail Friday.
