Re: MWUN Ultimatum Over Alleged Non-Payment Of Outstanding Wages To Tally Clerks And On Boa
rd Security Men
The attention of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) Management has been drawn to various media reports on the purported threat by the Labour under the auspices of the Workers Union of Nigeria (MWUN) over the alleged nonpayment of outstanding wages and salaries of dockworkers by their employees.
Management wishes to state as follows:
Tally clerks are NOT employees of the NPA .They are employees of the various stevedoring companies'.Their employees have direct obligations to pay them their wages and salaries and NOT the NPA.
Management wishes to recall that in 2006 dock labour was ceded to the then JOMALIC and along the line JOMALIC was merged with
then NMA to form the present day NIMASA
It is pertinent to note that one of the functions of the NIMASA as stated in the NIMASA Act is to accredit labour who can now be employed by the stevedoring companies who work for Terminal operators.
It could be recalled that at the instance of the Federal Ministry of Labour and Productivity a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed which culminated in the payment to the contractors. Since the implementation of the July (MOU) over 500 Million naira has been paid to the Stevedoring contractors who are the employers of the dockworkers.
There have been challenges in fulfilling our obligations to these labour contractors due to the issues of clarification and validation of their claims. Subsequent payments to the contractors which are being processed caught with the government policy of Treasury Single Account (TSA) dead line of September 15th 2015 which has delayed disbursement of the monies.
It should be pointed out that in the last nine years, the Authority had been groaning under the weight of the financial burden of payment of stevedoring companies who do not fall within our responsibilities in the present statutory dispensation.
However it should be emphasized here that our responsibility on payment to dockworkers and tally clerk ceased with the commencement of the present concession regime from 2006 when the NPA was relieved of the following functions –
Cargo handling operations
Dock labor management
Development and maintenance of terminal super structure
Acquisition and maintenance of operational equipment .
Maintenance of safety and security within the terminals amongst others
It is important to also state that according to the enforcement and ratification Act of 2004, the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code is section 12 of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS).SOLAS was domesticated in Nigeria by the Enforcement and Ratification Act of 2004 . Since ISPS Code is part of SOLAS which is now part of our domestic laws, it spells the duties and responsibilities of all entities in the new maritime security regime.
Under company and ships it states that ''any company operating ships to which chapter x1-2 and part 2A of this code apply has to delegate a Company Security Officer (CSO) for the company and a Ship Security Officer (SSO) for each of its ships .The duties, responsibilities and training requirements of these officers and requirements for drills and exercises are defined in part A of this code''.
''In view of this Act, the following responsibilities are clearly stated as follows; on a ship, the Ship Security Officer (SSO)is responsible for security. This responsibility gives SSO,s a key role in ensuring the continued effectiveness of the Maritime Security measures.
Responsibility of the master of their ship and reporting to the CSOs ashore, SSO:
Ensure that the ship and its shipboard personnel operate in accordance with the approved Ship Security plan( SSP)
Maintain security at all times
May have the responsibility for shipboard personnel with the designated security responsibilities
Ensure that contact is established and maintained with the Port Facility Security Officers (PFSO,s) at the port facilities that the ship uses and
Liaise as necessary with the PSO,s/PFSOs or other officers and officials
ashore with security responsibilities ''
The overriding desire for a peaceful industrial relations atmosphere that will ensure and secure government's objectives for reform in the Maritime sector and improve efficiency of port services shall always remain the guiding principle and approach of the Authority's Management, which is why management performs certain obligations which are statutorily the responsibilities of other agencies.

I hate to say it, but the new Gmail app for iPad is better than the Android tablet counterpart.
Phil NickinsonShared publicly -
Using it, too. And I don't disagree.

I do like the new Google Now features added today...can't wait to see how incredible they look on iOS.
Andres Benites
I'm not sure I agree. It looks like the only difference is the fly-out labels in the ipad version. That should be pretty easy to implement if it is better.
what the hell is wrong with Google are they smoking crack over there? ..you would think they would make the Gmail app work as well as in iOS.
Jeromy Mogharbel
Good strategy to avoid anti-trust lawsuits.
"What do you mean we're a monopoly? We're even trying to make the iPhone better."
"What do you mean we're a monopoly? We're even trying to make the iPhone better."
iOS got the new G+ layout before Android.. and now people are saying the Gmail app is better on iOS. Smh
I'd say the tablet version has not been optimized yet. Then again I like Google search better on iOS because it recites more finds. Try a who is? Search on both you will find that iOS tells you the wiki info android version does not. Again, what is Google doing?
Jamaar DeBoise
+Shaun McLane Google Now and Google search are two different services. Apple will never get Google now because that would allow Google too much access to apples devices. But iOS does have a bitter version of Google search
I like the IOS version ..... on a 10 inch tablet anyway , androids is perfect for smaller screens......is the I phone app the same ? As I think on a small screen it should be kept to full screen e-mail
No +Linh Nguyen you aren't. Based only on what I see in the video I like the Android variant better.
I had to dust off my first gen iPad to try this for myself... I have to say that this is really embarrassing for Google and basically tells me that they don't care about android tablet users.
The part I like is that Google is making a better mail app for the Ipad than Apple is. Genius!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
Forum Moderators: brotherhood of lan & mack
Personally, I've found wamp5 from wampserver.com to install the most easily. Apachefriends.org has been a little less reliable, but not bad.
When I have problems, though, I install one piece at a time. I would download apache and try the normal install. Does that work? If so, then add in PHP and MySQL.
To answer your questions,
I have never installed a server before. I'm not a techie, just started changing my website which has PHP forms by trial & error. My needs are relatively simple, hence my interest in USB / CD Rom based servers.
I have Win XP Home (came pre-installed on my Thinkpad T43p), dont think IIS server could come installed with that. My guess is some other software is potentially interfering port 80.
I will take a look at Knoppix, Wamp5 & Xampp.
Hope you stop by .. and thanks for at least giving Lighty2Go a try.
## bind to port (default: 80)
#server.port = 81
## bind to port (default: 80)
server.port = 9999
Hope that helps and hope to see you over at the Lighty2Go forums.

The Recovery Education in the Academy Program: Transforming academic curricula with the principles of recovery and self-determination.
ABSTRACT This article describes a curricular transformation initiative, the Recovery Education in the Academy Program (REAP), spearheaded by the University of Illinois at Chicago's National Research and Training Center on Psychiatric Disability.
REAP is designed to integrate principles of recovery, self-determination, and other evidence-based practices for people with psychiatric disabilities into medical, social, and behavioral sciences curricula. The principles on which the curricula transformation efforts are based, the instructional activities employed, early outcomes of the endeavor, and future plans for replication are delineated.
As described in this paper, REAP builds on a theoretical framework derived from the evidence-based literature, multiple technical reports, and curricular initiatives, including the Institute of Medicine, the Annapolis Coalition for Behavioral Workforce Development, and the Final Report of President's New Freedom Commission on Mental Health.
REAP has delivered state-of-the-science education to over 1,000 trainees, including medical students, psychiatry residents, psychology and social work interns, and rehabilitation counselors, pre/post-doctoral students and professionals within a variety of academic settings. REAP serves as a replicable structure to successfully integrate recovery education into existing, accredited academic programs and curricula using the parameters outlined by multiple experts and stakeholders. Barriers to curricular transformation and strategies to overcome these barriers are highlighted.

Article: The fierce urgency of now.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this special section, we present a series of articles describing the work of the National Research and Training Center on Psychiatric Disability, located at the University of Illinois at Chicago, Department of Psychiatry. The effectiveness of peer–led education in a supportive group context is the topic of the first article. The next article focuses on the importance of personal financial security to recovery from psychiatric disability. Another article describes the recovery self–management strategies taught to peers by other peers using the popular Wellness Recovery Action Planning model. The next article addresses cultural competency in consumer operated programs as assessed through a web–based survey of peers who do and do not attend peer run programs. The next article describes a curricular transformation project in the medical, social, and behavioral sciences to educate pre– and post–graduate students about recovery, self determination, peer support and evidence–based practices in behavioral health care. The final article describes self–directed care, an alternative financing strategy for public mental health.

Article: An Evaluation of Critical-Reflection on Service-Users and their Families Narratives as a teaching Resource in a Post graduate Allied Mental Health Programme: An Integrative Approach[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this article, the author argues for the need for students to have opportunities to dialogue with service users in social work education. Through such conversations spaces for critical-reflection are created in which individual, team and professional discourses can be safely critiqued among a community of learners. Within professional courses of study the constructed nature of distinctions between service users and the professionals who 'treat' them become apparent when consumers and their families tell their narratives of recovery to an audience of allied health students who are in their first year of hospital-based practice. The author proposes that social workers need to take a critical-reflective stance in relation to the teams and the professional discourses they work within. A critical-reflective approach enables students to analyse their practice within their organisation's policies to look beyond the boundaries while paradoxically learning to work within them. This perspective is evoked by the use of service user narratives in educational programmes of professional development. The implications for integrating consumer perspectives in social work education are discussed.Social Work in Mental Health 03/2013; DOI:10.1080/15332985.2012.748003
Article: The Recovery Group Project: Development of an Intervention Led Jointly by Peer and Professional Counselors[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate a low-cost, strengths-based group intervention led jointly by peer counselors and professional counselors to foster recovery among adults with serious mental illnesses. METHODS Cohort 1 included development of materials and a feasibility pilot, with participants recruited from community mental health centers (CMHCs). Cohorts 2 and 3 included a small randomized controlled trial with participants recruited from members of a not-for-profit, integrated health plan. Cohorts 4 and 5 involved evaluation of the most appropriate length for the intervention with a pre-post design that allowed intervention length to vary between 12 and 18 sessions; participants and peer leaders were recruited from two CMHCs (N=82). RESULTS Participants were very satisfied with the recovery-focused group intervention, preferred a greater number of weekly sessions (17 or 18 sessions), and reported improved outcomes across multiple domains. CONCLUSIONS Using peer-developed materials and a combination of peer and professional counselors as group leaders is feasible to offer and valuable to participants. Outcomes measures suggest that the intervention has potential to facilitate recovery in multiple domains.Psychiatric services (Washington, D.C.) 09/2013; 64(12).

Tired of not being able to find a true Italian restaurant in the city, owner Enrico Bosco opened this homey trattoria filled with memorabilia of Italian artists. Always bustling and frequented by families and young couples, it seems like a direct transplant from Naples. Superb fresh pastas; the best pizzas and focaccias in the city, cooked in a brick oven; and the homemade tiramisu are the standout dishes. The branch across the street, Cantina di Pulcinella, belongs to the same owners and serves the same food.

About Me
In the past I've stuck with very classic styles of imagery and while I still enjoy them I recently have noticed myself craving something a bit more. In that respect I have decided to make a sincere effort to change my portfolio up a bit, adding some intrigue and interest... a bit of liveliness and zest.
"There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion."
- Sir Francis Bacon
If you're interested in working together please, feel free to contact me... I have such a large variety of projects on the to do list that I can use people from all walks of life. I look forward to what lies ahead.
I graduated from the University of the Arts with a BFA, majoring in photography in 2005, I was a teacher's assistant off and on, I've taught my own classes as well. For a few years I was a studio manager in Philadelphia, then I moved to central PA where I spent some time teaching and managing another studio until finally stepping away from it all for a while. I'm well versed in various forms of printmaking and book design, I pride myself in the final product, not just any particular step along the way.
I've been in group shows, solo shows, won some awards and even had some work published but, always the optimist, I am sure the best is yet to come.

Image Scaler184.108.40.206
editor's review
Image Scaler is a simple-to-use program with a pretty suggestive title - it lets you change the size of your pictures.
This is a portable application, so installing Image Scaler is not necessary. You can simply place the tool on a removable device (like a USB flash drive), plug it into any computer and directly run its executable file.
But what's more important is the fact that no changes will be made to your Windows registry items.
The interface of Image Scaler is clean and intuitive. Pictures can be imported via the file browser only, because the "drag and drop" method is not supported (and neither is batch processing).
Besides setting the new width and height of the picture and selecting the scaling filters, you can also copy it to the clipboard, flip or rotate it, as well as apply few effects (gamma correction, lighten, darken, mix with color).
The image processing tool requires a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, quickly finishes a task and manages to preserve a good image quality. It can be easily used by novices. On the other hand, Image Scaler offers limited features.
For example, you cannot configure program settings (e.g. enable the software to automatically run at system startup) or have the option to automatically overwrite the original files instead of creating new ones. We recommend Image Scaler with reservations.

About the Project
National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence and Wildlife Conservation Society conservationist Michael Fay turned his attention to a unique North American ecosystem. On a yearlong, 1,800-mile (2,900-kilometer) hike through California's redwood forests, Fay collected data and documented the state of the forest, helping to call attention to this one-of-a-kind ecosystem. The Redwood Transect was supported by the National Geographic Society, the Wildlife Conservation Society, and the Save-the-Redwoods League.
Among the oldest and tallest trees on Earth, California redwoods often exceed 300 feet (90 meters) in height and can reach diameters of 10 to 20 feet (3 to 6 meters) or more. Some of these trees are more than 1,500 years old.
Following the model of his Megatransect, a 2,000-mile (3,200-kilometer) conservation trek through Africa's Congo Basin, Fay walked a transect from the southernmost redwood tree known to exist today to the northernmost tree, a distance of some 460 miles (740 kilometers). Along the way, Fay and independent researcher Lindsey Holm collected data critical to understanding the ecology and history of the redwood forest.
Using blogs and a tracking system on Google Earth, the project also connected a global community of people who can contribute information to a collective pool of data.
The Redwoods Transect began on September 3, 2007, and took about one year.

My Brother, My Enemy: America and the Battle of Ideas Across the Islamic Worldby Philip Smucker
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
This kaleidoscopic tour behind the frontlines of the war of ideas assesses US efforts to persuade Muslims that Americans respect their rights and interests, while we fight wars and promote our interests. He draws on extensive travels in the Muslim world through interviews with a cross-section of the population including students, intellectuals, insurgents and politicians. For an American perspective, the author examines the threat of terrorism and the challenges of winning the peace through candid interviews with US military officers, diplomats, and regional experts. The author describes turmoil within the Islamic realm and our efforts to project "soft power" into a world that remains misunderstood. He assesses both our failures and successes in Israel and Palestine, Egypt, Indonesia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Saharan Africa. In contrast to Western fearmongers who use hyperbolic rhetoric about "a clash of civilizations" and our war with "Islamic fascism," he asserts that such language targeting a would-be "enemy" has only aided and abetted al Qaedas recruiting drive and hardened attitudes against America among average Muslims. Several themes resonate through these interviews. One is that the Muslim world is looking for consistent engagement from the US, particularly in regard to Israeli-Palestinian peace. After decades of paying lip service to the ideal of peace in the Middle East, the author shows why it is crucial for the Obama Administration to push forcefully for a two-state solution. Another is that the US must discontinue its policy of backing authoritarian regimes that oppress their people. In the eyes of everyday Muslims, such tactics make a mockery of our claim to be the champion of individual liberty. Muslims, many of whom already support democratic change, will only be convinced of Americas good will, says the author if our actions speak louder than our words. Finally, the book makes the case that as long as Americans and Muslims view one another with blanket suspicions and as potential "enemies," neither side can hope to persuade his "brother" to see the world in another light. Though there are no silver bullets, pacification, development, and democratic progress should be approached through shifts in American foreign policy, he argues. This revealing, vividly told narrative by a daring and experienced journalist with firsthand knowledge of the events and people in conflict areas offers unforgettable insights into the Muslim worlds hopes and fears as well as our own crucial diplomatic overtures and military campaigns across the Islamic world.
"Reporting from insurgencies, war zones, and America's military, longtime journalist Smucker (Al Qaeda's Great Escape) analyzes the fraught relationship between the Arab world and the U.S. with an emphasis on how American foreign policy exacerbated Islamic extremism and, in particular, has radicalized young Muslims. Drawing on interviews with students, journalists, and soldiers on all sides, the author argues cogently that decades of wrongheaded American policy--propping up oppressive demagogues in the region and America's persistent failure to assertively pursue Israeli-Palestinian peace-- have been instrumental in sowing anti-U. S. animus, as has been the misguided response of the Bush administration to September 11: the invasion of the already beleaguered Afghanistan, a country that had nothing to do with the attacks; the demonizing of Islam; and America 'gloating' as Saddam was toppled. While Smucker allows that relations won't be warmed quickly, 'stubbornly continuing to fight without attempting to see through the eyes of our brothers and our enemies is a dead end.' He calls instead for foreign policy shifts to give 'soft power' and diplomacy a lead role in the efforts to eventually replace war and distrust with stability and cooperation. (July)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright PWyxz LLC)
Book News Annotation:
This work of reportage by independent journalist Smucker appears mainly aimed at countering the anti-Islamic hysteria connected to much of the rhetoric associated with discussions of terrorism threats and all too often disconnected from discussion of problematic US foreign policies that engender anger among Muslims. He draws on travels to Iraq, Israel/Palestine, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Indonesia, and elsewhere in order to elucidate Muslim views towards the United States and US foreign policy through interviews with a broad spectrum of people in the Muslim world, as well as with US military officers, diplomats, and regional experts. In many civil society developments across the Muslim world he finds reason to hope for improved relations, but warns that the US must find a solution to the Israel/Palestine conflict, end its support for autocratic dictatorships, and cease going abroad "in search of monsters to destroy" if it truly wishes to move beyond rhetoric and actually reach out to the Muslim world in friendship and thereby lessen the threat from terrorism. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
In this kaleidoscopic tour behind the front lines of the war of ideas, a veteran investigative journalist examines U.S. efforts to fight terrorism, build nation states, and persuade Muslims that Americans to respect their rights and interests.

Paul Revere's Ride, poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, published in 1861 and later collected in Tales of a Wayside Inn (1863). This popular folk ballad about a hero of the American Revolution is written in anapestic tetrameter, which was meant to suggest the galloping of a horse, and is narrated by the landlord of an inn who remembers the famous "midnight ride" to warn the Americans about the impending British invasion. Although the account of the ride is historically inaccurate, the poem created an American legend.

About this Business
From Our Editors
Operated by two friends with a lifetime of experience in the deli industry, Fromin's Delicatessen & Restaurant has conquered appetites with generously sized sandwiches, burgers, and California-tinged diner-style dinners for more than 30 years. The owners bring a wealth of life experiences to the table as they ply their culinary trade, with Maurice Solomon being a survivor of Nazi-occupied Belgium and Dennis Fromin being a fourth-generation deli operator. The longtime buddies staff the counter themselves, whipping up blintzes and omelets all day long, and layering towering sandwiches with chicken salad, hot pastrami, and corned beef. The pair's commitment to preparing traditional delicatessen fare runs deep. Dennis draws from decades of family tradition and Maurice proudly sports the name "Deli King" on his license plate and library card.

While Africa brims with unspoiled landscapes written in big, bold strokes, Botswana's Okavango Delta proves especially dazzling. The 6,000-square-mile Delta is formed by the mighty Okavango, "the river that never finds the sea," which roars down from neighboring Angola and spills out into the sands of the perpetually barren Kalahari Desert.

You might never have heard Mick Jones' name, but if you've spent any time near a radio since the late 1970s, you've probably heard plenty of his music. Because the founder and guitarist of the rock group Foreigner rarely sings lead vocals and also because the band touts its brand name rather than its individual members, the UK native has never become particularly well known in his own right.

Scaling back doesn't have to mean giving up the benefits of private aviation and settling on airline travel.
"When you get into the larger aircraft it becomes like a hotel, with dozens of staff supporting the plane based in a galley area down below. You have very comprehensive cooking facilities, and on larger aircraft we have looked at theatres, with spiral staircases and a Steinway grand piano. The limitations for what you can put inside a plane are pretty much the limits of physics, and even money cannot always overcome that. Even so, people are still always trying to push [the limits]. "

This bar does not have liquor, beer and wine only but after a day on the water and ice cold beer is just what was needed! Definitely a must when visiting Marathon! P.S. French Fries.. AMAZING!

After debuting its own Chromebook for education last year, Dell is turning its Chrome OS attention to offices. The company announced on Tuesday a new computing appliance to deliver Windows applications on Chromebooks.
In tandem with virtualization software, one Dell Appliance for Wyse - vWorkspace can serve up Windows apps to up to 350 Chromebooks or Chromeboxes. Dell says the cost starts at $180 per user for the server hardware and licenses, hypervisor and vWorkspace broker. The Chrome OS devices can also be managed or deployed through the new appliance.
Google accidentally reveals 'Android M' in new I/O scheduleSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 7th of May 2015 08:42:28 PM Filed under
It looks like Google will reveal the successor to Android 5.0 Lollipop at its upcoming annual I/O 2015 developer conference.
Google may have inadvertently confirmed Android M will appear on May 28 after publishing a reference to the operating system in the I/O conference schedule which it published yesterday.
The timing of M's release wouldn't be a surprise given that Google unveiled Lollipop at the same conference last year, but it may also suggest the company will be releasing an early preview for developers as it did with Android 5.0.
Chromixium – An Ubuntu Based Google's Chrome OS CloneSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Tuesday 5th of May 2015 08:35:49 AM Filed under

Google, Red Hat, and VMware announce CoreOS container supportSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Tuesday 5th of May 2015 02:05:03 AM Filed under

Also: Google, VMware, and Red Hat just joined together to kneecap red-hot startup Docker
Google's open source addressing system could replace longitude and latitudeSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Friday 1st of May 2015 12:57:17 AM Filed under
Google often decides to go about things in its own way, and is frequently found approaching common problems from a unique angle. The latest candidate to receive the Google treatment is the humble address. Not web addresses or email addresses, but regular postal addresses. So what's the deal?
While street names and numbers usually get you to where you want to go, that's not always the case. You could opt to use longitude and latitude instead, but what sane person wants to do that? This is the very question Google asked before it came up with Open Location Code, an open source addressing system the company hopes developers will latch onto.

ChromeOS 42.0.2311.87 (Official Build) (64-bit) – A brief lookSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Sunday 19th of April 2015 10:07:47 PM Filed under
ChromeOS is a crafty devil. If you are not paying attention you can miss the fact that you've received an update. Its a little like a dog near to a buffet table, turn away and it will have a cake off there and carry on as normal without you being any the wiser.
I decided to pen a few thoughts on the latest build which has found its way through the interwebs and landed on my HP 14″. When I say land, the image I'd like to convey is not so much a smooth journey opening up a wealth of treats but more of a thump and an exercise in wasting my time.
These are the things I've noticed within the first few hours of the update. There will be more.

The barriers Hispanic farmers face in starting and expanding farming operations in the United States includes the lingering effects of past government discrimination, current marketing and use of information, and their own agricultural traditions. Both the government and the farmers see the need for improvement, but reaching the end goal is a challenge. NET News and Harvest Public Media reporter Clay Masters reports and produces "Hispanic Farmers on Broken Ground." The television documentary features Nebraska Hispanic farm owners, the author of a report on the current state of Hispanic farm ownership in the state, Hispanic students involved in a youth farming organization, as well as U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack. The documentary aims to examine the obstacles currently facing Hispanic farmers in the Midwest and across the country, as well as look ahead to possible solutions for the future.
