World renowned American soul singer Chaka Khan has promised to light up Dar es Salaam when she performs at the Club E event at Ubungo Plaza tomorrow.
Yesterday when she toured the Tanzania Cigarette Company (TCC) in Dar es Salaam Ms Khan, who is also a 2006 BET Lifetime Achievement Award recipient said that she is ready for the event where her old time hits are expected to entertain her fans.
The event, where over 1200 revelers and Club E members are expected to attend will headline the songstress who is known for hits like "I'm Every Woman" and "I Feel for you".
During her visit at the TCC headquarters yesterday, the star was briefed on the different products produced by the company.
The star promised Tanzanian that she will bring a message embodied in love, peace and healing to Tanzanians.
"That is the message I generally come with. It is one of love, peace and healing," she said.
The 58 year old artist is an American singer and composer who gained fame in the 1970s and has won scores of global and American awards during a successful career that spans over four decades.
Ms Khan, who is also a Grammy winner, first won fame as the front woman and focal point of the funk band Rufus. While still a member of the group in 1978, Khan embarked on a successful solo career. Her signature hits, both with Rufus and as a solo performer, include "Tell Me Something Good", "Sweet Thing", "Ain't Nobody", "I'm Every Woman", "I Feel for You" and "Through the Fire".
Those who remember Ms. Khan as the erstwhile Yvette Marie Stevens, the petite high school student who changed her name when she went to work for the Black Panthers, or as the lead singer of Rufus in the '70s, or as the leather-and-feathers '80s disco queen, will have to adjust their dancing shoes for Saturday's event.
When she was 20 years old she was the lead singer in the funk band Rufus. Her breakthrough, encouraged by Stevie Wonder, was in 1974 with the song "Tell Me Something Good". From that moment, her name was established and she had big hits like "I'm Every Woman".
In the eighties, her star remained high in the sky, with songs like "Ain't Nobody" and with the Prince song "I Feel for You". In 2007, Chaka Khan again astonished the music world with her album Funk This. She also made her impression on Broadway in the musical The Color Purple. Her name stands for quality, strength but most of all for pure class.
The American singer received the Edison Jazz lifetime achievement award last year pooled from the three Edison categories that include Classical Edison, Edison Pop and Edison Jazz/World. The latter includes the currents funk, soul and blues.
With her track record, Chaka Khan can definitely be considered as a "grand lady". Although her frame is small, she is an impressive figure- her expressive and great voice is embraced by millions of people all over the world.

The Toyz (spelled "TOYZ" in GTA III) is a van in featured in Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
The Toyz is a depicted as a hobbyist van that contains remote-controlled cars and explosives. The van is identical to the Pony, but has flat side panels with Toyz'n The Hood logos, similar to the Panlantic.
When found and entered, it starts a mission where you use remote control cars in order to destroy people and property, rampage style, and sometimes an RC checkpoint race is activated instead. During these side-missions, the vehicle cannot be moved or exited, so care must be taken not to set it on fire by setting off explosions too close to it.
You can avoid starting the RC missions by pushing the van forward about two car lengths OR by taking it while on a mission. The van is light blue in Grand Theft Auto III, and white in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
- Near Rothwell Station in Hepburn Heights, Portland Island. Starts Diablo Destruction.
- In an alleyway one block south of demolished building in Saint Mark's, Portland Island. Starts Mafia Massacre.
- Opposite Kenji's Casino in Torrington, Staunton Island. Starts Casino Calamity.
- North of hideout in Wichita Gardens, Shoreside Vale. Starts Rumpo Rampage.
GTA Liberty City Stories
- At the construction site in Hepburn Heights, Portland Island. Starts Thrashin' RC.
- Two blocks south of Punk Noodles in Chinatown, Portland Island. Starts RC Triad Take-Down.
- Near the boat house in Belleville Park, Staunton Island. Starts Ragin' RC.
- South of the terminal inside Francis International Airport, Shoreside Vale. Starts Chasin' RC.
- In the beta of GTA III, you were meant to have two more missions involving this car. Their targets were meant to be the Yardie gang cars and the Cartel Cruisers, as seen in american.gxt.

Hello from Belarus! I am Alexey Samoletov – the author of tracks which as I hope to you will be pleasant. I started writing music from 14 years and I am engaged in it to this day (with some breaks).

CNN -- Starting Sunday, you might want to think twice when you're asked "Credit or Debit."
Stores in most states, including North Carolina, can now charge customers a "checkout fee" if you use your credit card. These fees are not allowed in all states. Ten states have laws that prohibit surcharge fees on credit cards. They are California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Oklahoma and Texas.
The new fees are part of a settlement between Visa, MasterCard and nine big banks. The settlement gives retailers the option to tack on a surcharge if a customer uses a credit card. The retailer can charge 1.5 to 3 percent of the total purchase, enough to cover the processing costs.
The fee doesn't apply to debit cards and it will still be illegal to charge fees in 10 states. Again, stores will have the choice to either get stuck footing the bill for the swipe fees, or risk transferring the cost to their customers, possibly driving away business.
Walmart said in a statement that it would cost customers tens of billions of dollars each year.
Here's a link to the story on CNN Money.

A racially-charged criminal trial and a heart-rending love story converge in this documentary set during the turbulent Civil Rights era.
In 1958, Mildred and Richard Loving were woken up in the middle of the night and arrested for violating a state law that banned marriage between people of different races. Together with two young, ambitious lawyers, their struggle for dignity and social justice culminated in a landmark Supreme Court decision, Loving v. Virginia (1967) which overturned anti-miscegenation laws in the United States.
The Created Equal film series is made possible through a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, as part of its Bridging Cultures initiative, in partnership with the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History.

I sometimes call my Tucker by Smooch's name and they are a different sex. Smooch is my Golden Girl at the Bridge!! I have felt many times that all the DOGS we've lost, come back to us again in another dog!! Tucker and Tonka share so many similarities and characteristics with our Smooch and Snobear.

Thanks so very much, all your comments are greatfully received. Though I'm not too sure about the teething thing !! I've lost a piece of skirting board and a piece of stair carpet as part of Kai's teething ritual. I thought I'd a lot of toys for him to 'have a go' at and to keep him occupied, obviously not enough ! ! Me thinks Ill have to pay another visit to the pet store.

We've always used a crate when we've had a pup.
Just make sure you remove Kai's collar, before putting him in a crate.

It sounds as if you and Kai are settling in very well! I wouldn't worry about the name mix-up--my mom used to do that with her two daughters. Never bothered us at all because it was done with love.
I second the idea of the Kongs or other chewables. I've heard if people weaving rags into a tight braid, soaking them in broth or water and freezing them for teething puppies, too.
I'm so glad you have a puppy/ray of sunshine in your life. I'm sure Fluke and Harry are smiling down on you. I think as some point soon, you should start a thread on GRF just for Kai! We would all love to see pictures!

Fantastic update we are so happy for you that you have found Kai. It certainly does sound like he's settled in very well and he sounds so sweet watching tv like Simba used to, bless him.
Yes, a kong is definitely the way forward. We bought one for the gsd Eddie recently and he loves it! I wish we'd have discovered them when we had Daisy to keep her busy. Thanks for keeping us posted about Kai
Really great updates. I'm so glad that Kai is settling in so nicely. He sounds like the most wonderful boy (and smart too watching all those nature shows!!!) Would love to see more pictures of your handsome boy
Hi Maggsd. How are you doing? How is Kai? I'd love to hear an update on your new little bundle of joy.
|The Following User Says Thank You to Helo's Mom For This Useful Post:
Hi guys, sorry not been to forum as much recently. I'm having a bit of bad time with personal stuff, job etc. I hate to admit this, but I've even feeling pretty low. I went for a job interview, i hate them ! !!!! even though its only a temporary position but still made me feel awful.
Prior to going this morning I was overcome with tears for my boys, it just came out of nowhere. I'm so fond of 'not so little now' Kai, but for some reason I found myself just sobbing. I love my boys so much, I keep thinking they were here this time last year, and I was shopping for their Xmas pressys. It never entered my head they wouldn't be here now, they both seemed so fit for their ages. They're in my thoughts constantly. I feel a little guilty towards Kai. He's 6 months and in the full throws of 'puppyness'. He's really starting to push his boundaries and I find myself saying, I'm sure Fluke and Harry weren't so mischievous, though they probably were.
I'm hoping this immense sadness of my boys passes. I thought I'd managed to accept all that happened,but looks like despite the new addition, I've had a setback. Could do with some words of wisdom people :-(
It's partly the time of year. It's an emotional time, and I know I find emotions--good and bad--very close to the surface. Sometimes I think the whole point of Christmas/New Years is to reminisce, and sometimes that's painful to do.
I've been looking for work, and I know how you feel about interviews. And crying before going into one--I can't imagine how you felt, much less got through it!
I hope you'll cut yourself some slack. Not sure if that an expression where you are. Over here it means, be good to yourself and don't expect so much.
I hope you let Kai lick the tears off your face. I'm sure his mischief is the best thing in the world for you. Sending good thoughts winging to you.

Hi Frosty. I noticed you put out the welcome mat to a couple of new log-ins. Was that a mistake, since you are evidently on the other site as they will know if they click on your signature? --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 12:22, January 16, 2013 (UTC)
Did you intend to also delete your last comment here? ~~Pup~~
Admin status
As you have said you refuse to do anything constructive here on your user page (or "slave away" to use your words), and you are actively trying to remove links to this site, I'm asking that you relinquish your admin status and choose to stop coming here to "make the site fail". Your interests are no longer focused on improving uncyclopedia.wikia.com.
If I've misread your intentions from your actions and statements, could I instead ask that you start acting in the best interests of this site and of the community that remain here. • Puppy's talk page • 05:22 20 Jan
- Yep you got your bloody wish. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 05:42, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
- Given "I am also correcting them on other sites..." it suggests that you have actually been acting contrary to the needs of the community here, while still retaining office. Thank you for actually being honest about your intentions and loyalties finally. I hope any other members of the community that are working to destroy this site while holding office take the same honest path.
- Nothing is more offensive than when those who were placed in admin positions here to support the site decide to work against it and lie about their intentions. It's an insult to the people who supported them for those positions to begin with. • Puppy's talk page • 06:27 20 Jan
Well, nice to see you again Frosty but I admit I am surprised to see you back so soon since you mentioned '40,000' things to fix with Mad Max on the other site. You must be a fast worker! BTW, and off all this Unc nonsense, I trust you have made a full recovery from the accident last year. Was the person that knocked you down ever found? Perhaps you don't have enough CCTV cameras in Australia. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 10:06, January 25, 2013 (UTC)
- Also, your current userpage seems to inconsistent with desiring to make good faith edits at the evil wikia site. Perhaps you should update it. --Mn-z 10:58, January 25, 2013 (UTC)
- I'm sure Frosty is aware of the feelings of the remaining community here. But he is also currently very drunk, an probably not capable of coherent response. Assume good faith, guys, and give him a chance to adjust a few of his more excessive "us and them" messages here. • Puppy's talk page • 11:07 25 Jan
- Hey, a snowman always goes where it's cold (code), and it's "cold" here. hahahahahahahaha. To be serious, Frosty, this is your site too, but you know that. So fuck them if they can't fake a joke. Aleister 12:13 25-1-'13
- I'm sure Frosty is aware of the feelings of the remaining community here. But he is also currently very drunk, an probably not capable of coherent response. Assume good faith, guys, and give him a chance to adjust a few of his more excessive "us and them" messages here. • Puppy's talk page • 11:07 25 Jan
Frosty,could you cancel my account and never use my email,and send me a email to confirm it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drfg (talk • contribs)
- I cannot delete accounts, I'm not even sure if staff can delete accounts. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 04:24, January 28, 2013 (UTC)
- Wikis generally don't have an account deletion system, due to the open source nature. It is to prevent someone from removing their edits against the consent of the community. --Mn-z 17:09, January 28, 2013 (UTC)
A Different Question
Hi Frosty, Is there anyway that I could get the edit history for a deleted page named Gun Control in the U.S.? I recently reposted it, but I would like to have the edit history from before that. Thanks. ---Kremdog (talk) 15:46, January 29, 2013 (UTC)
- Often there is edit history on the mirror site (http://mirror.uncyc.org/) but this particular article doesn't exist there. If you are after a page to be restored it's better to ask the admin who deleted it (in this case it would be chief) to restore it, rather than just repost it. If something is deleted there is generally a reason why. Reposting it could be seen as just being argumentative. • Puppy's talk page • 11:29 29 Jan
- kk Thanks for the advice --Kremdog (talk) 13:19, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
- You're welcome! If you need any help you can also feel free to drop by my talk page. Frosty is less active now than he used to be - although he still wanders past. Most active members watch my talk page though, so even if I'm not around there's a fair chance someone will be there soon. • Puppy's talk page • 01:33 31 Jan
- Thanks, I'll do that.--Kremdog (talk) 13:43, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
- yah, im not around so much these days. Although I still do check my talkpage (almost) every day. POTR is more active for problems and whatnot. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 04:45, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

VFS scorefix
Thank you for fluffing up my vote total. However, based on the instructions at the start of Section 1 ('For clarification purposes if you want your votes to count either say "For/Yes"'), Simsie's total looked correct originally, and I don't know what to make of some of the votes for me. Further adjustments might be in order if one enforced the warning against using a For vote to make an Against argument. At the end of the day, you might just let this be administered by the Admins who are administering it. Cheers! Spıke Ѧ 01:54 3-Feb-13
- I am fairly certain every post under Sims was a for vote even if Shabidoo and Bizzeebeever didn't say it was. But then again Chief can do whatever when he does the final check before opping them. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 02:58, February 3, 2013 (UTC)
- Either count still gives the same "winners". • Puppy's talk page • 03:29 03 Feb
- That too. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 03:30, February 3, 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, my vote was a "for" vote. Shoulda used a template, huh. ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Tue, Feb 5 '13 1:59 (UTC)
- If the user changes the score with the edit, then the vote is unambiguous wether there is a "for" or not in the text.--ShabiDOO 05:48, February 5, 2013 (UTC)
- Yes and no. The issue arises because some intend the vote to be yes, but don't update the score. (I've done exactly that myself). That's why I'm thinking a more VFH style (numbered lists in a voting dedicated area) removes the confusion. Plus we had people deciding that a comment was a vote, no matter how lukewarm or ambiguous, or deciding which vote out of three should be stricken (hence I figured strike them all and let the voter clarify for themselves). Personally I'd rather a vote be a plain yes/no, and separate area for comments. (And introducing your proposal on VFS as well - one user/one vote). • Puppy's talk page • 06:34 05 Feb

Permaban of user "Lesbian Wolf"
Are you still on the site? His first edit was to upload a .js file that looked to me like it was going to perform random reverts. How does it look to you? Spıke Ѧ 22:51 10-Feb-13
- I'm not really sure if that script reverts vandalism or legit edits, i guess the only way to be certain would be to wait until they used it. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 05:41, February 11, 2013 (UTC)
- I'd have a concern about a "revert script" as we already have one in rollback, but we choose who can have rollback rather than making it a universal option. Giving someone the equivalent of rollback before they make a single edit is stupid in the extreme. Especially as we are saying - in effect - feel free to revert any user at will.
- Having said that, I've been thinking about an "undo with comment" option for ages. Especially when undoing edits by multiple IPs to "last checked version". Rollback is often too harsh for IPs who are ignorant but not malicious, but undo is more labour intensive. I'm not as au fait with scripting as others who have left the site, but I'll have a look at this js. If this is ignorance rather than malice, the permaban may be over conservative. • Puppy's talk page • 09:51 11 Feb
- But if it's a bot rollbacker from a lesbian wolf, can't it be programmed to wipe out the whole site? That will be like trying to teach a six-legged lame man how to jump rope. Al 10:33

Thank you for extending this ban, which I put at one year for repeat attempts to change material in other people's userspaces, including archives, to rewrite our past as though he were never here, a power no one should have. I had written to the Chief that enlisting Admins RAHB and Rcmurphy off-site to do what he could no longer do was ban evasion and a permaban might be appropriate. Spıke Ѧ 10:56 18-Mar-13
I saw the edits to her user page - the only reason I did not block her already for cyberbullying is because I googled the name of the person whose article she made; that person did indeed make a tampon video (ew!) and has had several articles about it on other sites. In retrospect I should have simply deleted the page since this is not a site for internet memes and happenings. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 18:10, March 18, 2013 (UTC)

Happy April Fools Day
Thanks for the April Fool's joke - I was wondering what we on this side were going to do for April Fools but hadn't gotten around to creating a forum about it. I've changed my skin to Wikia for the day, it should be interesting messing around with the admin tools in the Wikia skin. I've figured out how to access recent changes and delete pages (possible when I changed my preferences to the Wikia skin, but not with the old Uncyclopedia skin). I suppose I could add myself to the arrays, but unfortunately it was at about that point that I dropped out of minoring in computer science. Pup's more the expert than I am at that sort of thing. Anyways, your apology on the other site is accepted, and we welcome you all back into the fold. Enjoy the oppression, and the mandatory welcome ban. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 07:06, April 1, 2013 (UTC)

The Newspaper Made Entirely From Recycled Internet Memes
April 9th, 2013 • Issue 181 • Voted best newspaper of Uncyclopedia: 2010, 2011 and 2013.
Pissing About
It has been noted recently that there has been a huge decrease in the number of pee reviews made each week. Before some hard-work pissing a few days ago there were still pee reviews from November 2012 left to review. This has made many uncyclopedians unhappy that their work isn't being pissed on by other more experienced and toilet trained uncyclopedians.
Remember that if you want to have your article reviewed then you must first review someone elses. There has been an influx of noobs joining these last five months and many of them would love help on how to improve their articles and help on how to make them funny. Many noobs such as Dannyboy and Anton199 have been struggling to produce good-quality articles and have required information from admins and a few others that their articles are bad or not funny but they are not being told the specifics and how to improve the articles.
The general message that Uncyclopedia and Unsignpost want to put out is stop day dreaming and start "pissing about." Get on the pee review page and write a few reviews every week. Even upload some articles to be reviewed. By doing this we can turn the Pee Review page from a stagnant wasteland of tripe into a growing community with bonds of friendship being made between the reviewers and the writers
The same situation applies to the Votes For Highlight page which sees its usual voters ever week however the number of regular visitors and contributors to the VFH page is not enough for the articles there to get high enough votes to either fail or pass being features. When you visit that page please try to vote for and/or against on as many articles as you can so that everyday can have a new article featured.
Recently on the VFH page we have seen the articles Thainglish and Modus ponens go through to pass the test. However these were featured a few days ago and are likely to be up for a week. Contenders for the next featured article seem to be Flag Burning Amendment(5/2), UnNews:A-bombs dropped on Japan awarded Nobel Peace Prize(5/0) and Capitalism: in grammar(5/1).
Article 2
Nobody is writing this article this week as nobody has contributed. Apparently somebody's excuse for not contributing was that nobody had done it already which really isn't a valid excuse. Somebody encourages others to write in this space the next time UnSignpost is released so that nobody doesn't have to do it again. Nobody has been writing the last three month's UnSignposts after all.
Anyway back to the point. Nobody would like to point out that recent events in the news such as the war against the other uncyclopedia websites with the April Fools prank which admitedly nobody knows anything about but somebody may be able to tell you more on that story. Also Magaret Thatcher, the role model, has died so Uncyclopedia is looking for someone to write a funeral song for her to be played at that glorius moment. I mean glorious in that we can celebrate her awful policies in politics - awfully good policies that is. The last and only entry we have received so far was, UnTunes:Ding, Dong the Witch is Dead however sadly this was banned and deleted by wikia authorities before we got the chance to hear it.

International Star Wars Day
Once again it is that time of year when we must take a day off to remember those who fought for the Rebels against the evil empire. As you know Uncyclopedia has a large Jedi community and to reach out to all our religious groups no matter how liberal they are we muast help them with their festivals.
What will you do on International Star Wars day? Perhaps you shall visit the temple and pray for the dead of Hoth? Perhaps you will use the force for good and strangle some politicians? Whatever it is that you want to do Uncyclopedia is there to support you.
One user who will remain nameless, is going to attempt to raise money for charity by speaking in Jedi for the whole day. The money he collects will go to
Nobody Cares
Nobody has been handing out welcome messages to people recently signed with different admins names and nobody was concered by the huge discussion on a forum about it. Nobody would like to apolagise for this because to be quite frank Nobody did it. Many admins were getting quite frustrated that Nobody had done it as they had wanted to do the welcome messages instead.
It was later discovered by Spike that it wasn't Nobody (Nobody disagrees) that had done it (excuse my grammar) but that it was an automated Wikia message. This has caused some members of our community to vent even more frustration with Wikia however this newspaper would like to point out that Wikia has done a lot to benefit us and Nobody agrees that the welcome message (and content warning) has been very useful.
The fact that the message has now been stopped is thanks to the admins sorting the problem out with Wikia so on this note Nobody would like to thank the admins for their help in running this site.
Also Nobody cares about UnSignpost and Nobody is moved that there are a lack of articles submitted to UnSignpost to be featured in the newspaper. UnSignpost would therefore like to remind you that it is vital to support your community newspaper as it supports the community.

A New York City homicide suspect accused of stealing a car in Maine is in custody in Ohio.
WARREN, Ohio (AP) _ Police said 25-year-old Raymond Mayrant was tracked Friday to a mission that helps the homeless in Warren, about 50 miles southeast of Cleveland. The stolen vehicle also was found.
Police said it's not clear why Mayrant was in Warren. He's expected to be taken back to New York.
Jail records didn't list an attorney for him.
He's suspected of shooting his girlfriend and her mother Jan. 3. The older woman died, becoming New York's first homicide victim of 2013.
Police in Maine allege Mayrant later stole a car from an unsuspecting father and daughter who apparently met him while asking for directions during a trip and gave him a ride to Maine.

- "Jerk needs to be taught a lesson. Give him a beating. Let him know... might is right!"
- ― Vlad Glebov
Vladimir "Vlad" Glebov (Russian: Владимир Глебов) (1967-2008) is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as the quinary antagonist in Grand Theft Auto IV, appearing as the main antagonist during the first portion of the storyline, and also as a cameo character in The Lost and Damned.
Vlad was a senior member of the Faustin Family operating in Hove Beach, a local community to Russian mobsters. He made his income from loansharking and racketeering in Broker, mainly aiming at weak Russians. Vlad was a local customer at Comrades Bar which he owned and operated from. Vlad was a frequent user of cocaine which was usually controlled by his boss, Mikhail Faustin and described as "good stuff". His downfall came when Niko Bellic soon arrived in Liberty City and took a big interest in Roman Bellic's personal life as he owed Vlad money from his massive gambling debts, and was later executed by Niko when Vlad was having an affair with Mallorie Bardas.
Early life
Vladimir "Vlad" Glebov was born in 1967 in Russia. He has a sister. His childhood and teens life are mostly unknown. Sometime during the mid-to-late 1980s Vlad met Mikhail Faustin and Dimitri Rascalov, two mobsters that Vlad joined to their gang later. Vlad also became a close worker to Ivan Bytchkov, a professional burglar of the Bratva. Vlad raised ranks in the Bratva until he became one of the most high ranking members, second only to Mikhail and Dimitri.
Liberty City
In the late 1980s, Vlad moved along with Mikhail, Dimitri, Ivan and most of thier associates to United States of America, setting in Liberty City and moving to Hove Beach. Vlad opened a bar called Comrades Bar, and hired a man named Mickey as the bartander. Vlad was arrested in 2002 for public nudeness, in 2003 for sexual assault and in 2004 for extortion.
Sometime in 2005 Vlad met Roman Bellic, who was in debt for gambling. Vlad lent Roman a lot of money and since then he was waiting for Roman to pay. Vlad started an affair with Mallorie Bardas, Roman's girlfriend.
Vlad also protected Roman from Dardan Petrela and Bledar Morina, two Albanians that Roman is in debt for them, although he never took them seriously.
- Roman: "I'll get you the money."
- Vlad: "I know. And Roman... tell this fucking yokel here if he doesn't stop staring at me, I'll have his head chopped off and put a film of it on the internet!"
- ―Vlad threatens Roman and his cousin, Niko.
In 2008 Vlad met Roman's cousin, Niko Bellic, and forced him to work for him in order to pay off Roman's debts. Vlad's work was, taking protection from a Chinese shopworker, and later from Muscovski, a laundromat owner. Vlad also told Niko to steal a Blista Compact from a man that didn't pay Mikhail. Vlad's last mission for Niko was to kill Ivan, who angered Mikhail. Niko can either kill or spare Ivan, the latter option making him appear in a random encounter later on. Niko called Vlad about the mission and Vlad revealed to Niko that he has an affair with Mallorie, making Niko very angry and threatens him that he will break him if he says that to his face.
- "Fucking yokel, you think you can get away with killing me?!"
"I guess I'll find out."
"You think this worth it? You're throwing you and your fatty cousin's lives away for that bit of Puerto Rican chocha."
"I'm throwing you away, prick. We'll do alright."
"My friends will track you down. You won't last a moment!"
"I'll last longer than you will, shithead."
"Fuck you! I wish I could be there to watch Mikhail cut your peasent balls off!"
- ―Vlad being confronted by Niko before being killed.
After Niko learns that Vlad has been having an affair with Mallorie behind Roman's back, Niko confronts Vlad at Comrades Bar. After a brief chase through the neighborhood, Niko shoots Vlad in the left eye under the Algonquin Bridge before tossing his corpse into the Humboldt River, ignoring the fact that his boss, Mikhail Faustin, will certainly track down the man responsible for his murder. Mikhail later admits that Vlad was an idiot, and the only reason he was still been employed in his organization was that Mikhail had sexual intercourse with Vlad's sister. Since Vlad has not been found after being killed, the LCPD database lists him as "missing".

LCPD Database record
- In Russia, the nickname for "Vladimir" is "Vova" and "Vlad" is for "Vladislav". It may be that "Vlad" is just easier to pronounce for Americans and because Vova can be confused by Latin people for "boba", an informal word in feminine for stupid in Spanish.
- Vlad is the first of his former employers that Niko kills.
- During the mission Do You Have Protection?, Dimitri mentioned that Vlad was the debt collector in Faustin Family. It could be his official rank.
- There is a reference to another Rockstar game in one of his lines: he said "Bang Bang, you are dead" to Niko. This is a reference to Vladimir Lem from Max Payne, who often said this.
- In the opening cutscene of It's Your Call, Vlad threatens Niko by saying that he would cut his head off and post a video of it on the internet if he wouldn't stop staring at him. This could be a reference to the graphic video where Russian neo-Nazis behead a person.
- In Easy Fare, he threatens Niko again, saying he will "burst one of his eyeballs." Ironically, this is the way he is executed in Uncle Vlad.
- Later in the game, Mallorie calls Niko revealing that Roman took credit for Vlad's death, and thanks him for helping Roman dispose of Vlad's body. Rather than tell her what really happened, Niko plays along, calling Roman an old school romantic.
- There is a possible reference to Vlad in a competing game, Saints Row 2. There is a commercial featuring a man named Vlad with an East European accent (Jason Zumwalt, the same voice actor that voices Roman), with hints that he is a human trafficker, and states that he is willing to have the player's family killed.
- The only time Vlad appears outside of cutscenes is in the mission Uncle Vlad.
- Vladimir Glebov shares his name with the youngest son of Lev Kamenev, a Bolshevik revolutionary and a prominent Soviet politician. Vladimir Glebov was the name of Lev's youngest son, and the only immediate relative to survive after Lev's execution, as the rest of his family was executed as well.
- As shown in the mission Clean Getaway, Vlad was a user of cocaine.
- After Vlad is killed if you go out drinking with Roman to the Comrades Bar, Roman will make mention of Vlad's death.

Car Parking at the The Range
Posted 29 December 2012 - 10:45 AM
I was speaking to someone last night who had received a parking fine through the post from a parking comany who monitor The Range car park.
They informed me that the car park is now being monitored by cameras from this parking company, so you won't see an attendant and it doesn't matter even if the store is closed they will simply send a ticket to the registered keeper of the vehicle.
I thought that it was worth posting before we all get tickets on the 6th.

"we all make mistakes that's why they put rubbers on pencils"
Posted 29 December 2012 - 07:33 PM
Posted 30 December 2012 - 09:33 AM
My friend's wife completely ignored the first invoice (not fine) and a few weeks later received a second. this time containing photographs of the car entering and leaving the car park, it didn't show clearly who was driving. She ignored this letter and hasn't recived anymore since.
Legally they could take you to the small claims court but will have to prove to the judge who was driving on that day and exactly how they suffered financially as a result of this 'illegal' parking, if this happens to you and you do go to the court it is unheard of, as yet, for the judge to favour the parking company. If you are summoned and don't turn up it is likely they will win their claim
Now, having said all that it might be worth cheking when the new regulations come in to play, the laws are changing to stop the clampers but there is also a change which may mean the registered keeper will have to give the name of the driver at the time of the major offence of parking, the burden will still lie with the company to show how they have suffered finacially and by exactly how much as a result of you taking one of their parking spaces.
Take note, the same company now monitors Tesco and Homebase, as well as B&Q, the differance is they allow 3 hours of parking and not the 2 hours at the Range, the streets of Hindpool are going to be overflowing

Recently, an Arusha-based non-governmental organisations' (NGOs) network, Angonet, carried public dialogues on constitution and constitutional affairs in five constituencies in Arusha region.
The areas involved are Arusha Urban, Arumeru East and West, Monduli and Ngorongoro. The idea of the meetings was to raise awareness on people's understanding on different issues related to the national legal document.
Angonet, is one of the NGOs in the country which have been commissioned to carry out public dialogues on Constitution and Constitutional issues.
The project is meant to empower people at the grass-roots to understand cardinal issues related to the country's constitutional matters and its review process.
Based on the fact that the Constitution is a system for government, codified as a written document, which contains fundamental laws and principles, peoples' participation is an important aspect than anything.
During the recent meetings, some people got an opportunity to understand the meaning of Constitution and its major changes since independence. Thereafter, they managed to unearth several potholes available in the current document.
"This gave people living in rural areas and those in peripherals opportunities to understand key issues related to constitution and the ongoing constitutional making process," says Peter Bayo, an activist and executive secretary of Angonet.
Presenting a report on the dialogues held recently across the region, Bayo said that people are eager to see the process is 'participatory and inclusive', by ensuring that all people's queries are taken care without fear or favor.
"People are still pushing for their active involvement in the ongoing process. This is due to the fact that for years, they have denied chances to take part in airing their view in the most critical issues related to country's development," he said.
An activist explained that people got an opportunity to understand key issues related to constitution and constitutional affairs, whereby the training package pass through a number of stages for a constitution to be ready for use.
Participants of the meetings, which included both men and women, were trained on various changes made in the 1977 Constitution since the country's independence.
The Angonet official said the project was very instrumental as it was as a tool towards empowering hundreds of people of different social and economical background, whereby a total of 995 of participants took part in the process.
"This is equivalent to 80 per cent of 1250 participants, who were expected to participate in the dialogues," he said, adding that it involved people from different calibers including farmers and livestock keepers; entrepreneurs and business community; special groups, students, representatives of civil society organizations (CSOs), and private sector.
"Those dialogues discussed the Constitution and national Constitution review process and strengthening public understanding on Act number 8 of Constitutional Review of 2011," Bayo said.
According to Bayo, people discussed ways of getting leaders, leadership, and administration and responsibility, obligation and rights of citizens; participation and taking part in the Constitution making process.
He said that participants suggested the need for the Constitutional Review Act to undergo major changes to meet people's outcry as well as giving enough room for people to air their views on the matter.
"Our task was to raise awareness among people so that they understand the importance of a constitution and how it affects their lives.
This period is indeed an opportunity for Tanzanians, constitutions unlike leaders are not changed every once in a while," Bayo said, adding that despite the good spirit of the government on the matter; still more need to be done in order to have a better Act.
He said that the current Act need a lot of amendments to meet people's requirements, rights and give enough room for people to express their views on what they want to be in the constitution.
Angonet also pushes for more civic education amongst the public, so that they become more informed and play their cardinal role in making the constitution.
"As civil society, we want people to be empowered in different ways and at all levels from national to grass-root levels," Bayo said.
His comment came barely few days when MPs in Dodoma debated the Constitutional Review Bill. During the debate legislators were divided on the proposed amendments to the Constitutional Review Act seeking to substitute district commissioners with Local Government Authority directors in coordinating public opinion gatherings when the exercise begins. The law came into force on December 1, 2011.
Anna Mghwira is one of the facilitators who participated in spreading the constitution 'gospel'. She said many people in the geographical area were excited with the approach, though they stressed on the need for the process to be held in a very transparent and participatory manner.
"Many people out there are very concerned with the entire process of coming up with the country's constitution, hence they asked for having enough room for them to participate," she says, adding: "People in all districts have expressed the need for them to be involved in all constitution-making processes. More are for regime change as they want leaders to accountable to people and not otherwise."
She said that people appealed to the government and relevant authorities to ensure that all people's views are taken into consideration, so that the document get people's mandate.
"This is a golden chance to many of us here in the village," Loduvo Sangau, a resident of Mbuguni in Arumeru district says, adding that people's participation in all process of constitutional making was very important to enable the country get a popular constitution.
He says constitution is an important legal document that gives a room for people of all calibers to make their leaders accountable, for anything they have done wrong contrary to the national constitution.
"I commend Angonet and other stakeholders for giving us opportunity to understand key issues in the constitution. I believe that at the end of the tunnel our social and economic rights will guaranteed in the new Constitution," he says.
Thabita Emmanuel, a resident of Monduli, said that the current constitution has a lot of potholes.
"A constitution is a very important legal document, hence its making processes should be carefully designed to meet people's demands," said Petro Ahham, a facilitator.
"They argued that the forthcoming country's constitution should clearly state that an MP is supposed to be neutral and he/she should be free from being given extra duties like a minister or regional commissioner," he said.
He said that at different meetings people were conscious of getting a better legal document, which will incorporate all people's views.
According to Ahham, people at the grass-roots are concerned with the name of the law itself as it is contrary to the whole concept of making a new constitution as it seems to be like it is a Constitutional review process of the 1977 Constitution.
Constitutional matters, and if possible, civic education should be a priority at all levels and at all times.
"This will make people understand key aspects related to Constitution and Constitutional affairs and this will make the document more meaningful to Tanzanians and it will make them free as everybody will understand his/her own right and responsibility," Ahham concludes.

With little more than two weeks remaining in her term, North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue submitted her state budget proposal for the next fiscal year.
Perdue's proposed 2013-14 budget details more than $21 billion in proposed state spending, including a 1 percent pay increase for all teachers and state employees and additional funding for education programs. The outgoing Democrat's budget stands next to no chance of being adopted by the GOP-controlled state legislature, but Perdue said she was required by state law to submit one before leaving office.
A spokesman for Republican governor-elect Pat McCrory, who takes office early next month, said the incoming administration will review Perdue's recommendations before submitting his own budget to the legislature.
The new fiscal year begins July 1.

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) -- RG3 and the Washington Redskins are NFC East champions.
Robert Griffin III ran for a touchdown, and fellow rookie Alfred Morris rushed for 200 yards and three scores Sunday night as the Redskins won their first division title in 13 years by beating the Dallas Cowboys 28-18.
The Redskins are 10-6 and will host the Seattle Seahawks next Sunday, having won seven straight since their bye week. Washington is the first NFL team to rally from 3-6 to make the postseason since the Jacksonville Jaguars in 1996.
The Redskins would have been out of the postseason with a loss. Instead, the Cowboys will miss the playoffs for the third straight year. Dallas finished 8-8, stumbling in a do-or-die end-of-regular-season game for the third time in five years.

A slow-moving cold front will approach eastern Carolina on New Year's Day bringing us clouds and a good chance for rain by the afternoon and evening. Temperatures will be quite cool with highs in the upper 40s to lower 50s. The front will stall just to our south and east by Wednesday and that will continue to give us a decent chance for light rain and drizzle into Thursday. Highs will stay in the 40s both Wednesday and Thursday.

- "I'm sorry we can't be together. You can't have me."
- ―Margot to Luis Lopez
Margot is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a random character in The Ballad of Gay Tony.
She is voiced by Piper Perabo
Margot dated Luis Fernando Lopez at some point during 2007. Luis ended the relationship when he revealed that he didn't want to marry with her. Afterwards, she stalked and became obsessed with him. Her father told her that Luis was a bad influence, but her crazy mental obsession with Luis made her send constant e-mails, phone calls, and gifts.
Events of The Ballad of Gay Tony
First encounter
She is encountered on the streets by Luis in front of Hercules (although it is implied she waited there for him) and, after stressing him out about his denial of her constant gifts, tells him that she took 37 painkillers and 15 sleeping pills. Enraged, but still worries for her safety, Luis rushes Margot to the emergency room of the Lancet-Hospital Center to have her stomach pumped.
Second encounter and Death
- "Save me..."
- ―Margot's last words
Upon release from hospital, she is once again encountered at Pier 45 holding onto a handrail and ready to jump from two stories, claiming that Luis would save her if he loved her.
Before jumping, Margot damns Luis' debaucherous lifestyle and holds a suicide note stating that he is responsible for her death (which isn't logical, as she couldn't have written the note if she's dead).
- "He pushed her! I saw it!"
- ―A female pedestrian about Margot's death.
Luis pleads with her that she needn't kill herself for him and attempts to stop her, but she leaps out of his reach to her death. A crowd of civilians surrounding the pier believes that Luis pushed her (ironically, bringing her suicide note to fruition). Luis, however, manages to escape.
Mission appearances
- Two Random Encounters (Commits suicide in the second encounter)
Margot's Random Encounters
- During Margot´s first encouter, she asks Luis, why hasn´t he replied to her e-mails. But if the player responds her e-mails before the player meet her in the first encounter, she will still ask this. This may be due to her mental illness and/or crazy obsession with Luis, or just that the developers didn't think of this.
- Margot sends Luis three e-mails, asking him if he would take her back.
- She is one of few known characters to commit suicide rather than dying either naturally or being killed by another character, including the player character, the other character to do this was Toshiko Kasen.
- If the player points his/her gun at Margot before triggering her second random encounter, she will suddenly fall straight down. Her body is nowhere to be found afterwards.

The Cereal Systems Initiative for South Asia (CSISA) was established to support regional and national efforts on improving cereal production growth in South Asia.
Sustained investment in agricultural science, technology, and innovation (ST&I) is critical to increasing agricultural productivity, reducing poverty, and fostering economy-wide growth in many developing countries. Evidence from the past five decades demonstrates that well-designed and effectively-implemented ST&I policies can enhance agricultural productivity, contribute to better management of scarce natural resources, and improve livelihoods.
Yet ST&I remains an overlooked and underfunded dimension of growth and poverty reduction agendas in many developing countries. Insufficient attention is paid to policies, investments, and programs that incentivize investment in scientific research and the development of goods and services that embody good science for the agricultural sector.
IFPRI is working to draw more attention to this topic by focusing its research on the analysis of optimal investment, collaboration, and risk management strategies that improve the development and delivery of scientific knowledge, technology products, and innovative approaches to improving agriculture. IFPRI's high-quality policy research, supported by concerted capacity strengthening and communications efforts, is meant to influence the design and implementation of effective and far-sighted ST&I policies.

PUEBLO, Colo. (AP) -- Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney says U.S. foreign policy should not be conducted "at the mercy of events" overseas. He also says the death of a U.S. ambassador in Libya and unrest in the Middle East are more than just bumps in the road.
Romney was referencing President Barack Obama comments during a "60 Minutes" interview broadcast Sunday. During the program, Obama said it was clear there would be "bumps in the road" for Arab countries going through the transition to democracy.
Both Egypt and Libya have faced upheaval during the Arab Spring.
Romney said Iran's nuclear ambitions, anti-American protests in Pakistan and the civil war in Syria also shouldn't be characterized as bumps.
The Republican presidential nominee spoke Monday in Pueblo, Colo., before a trip to New York.

In this design by Sankha Subhra Datta an attempt is made to reduce the cost of a conventional box type cooker. The cooker is very appropriate for rural applications. Fabrication of the cooker is very easy and so cost of labour is also lowered down. This cooker can be built by semiskilled village artisans by using simple hand tools and with locally available raw materials.
Constructional Features
The detailed constructional feature of the cooker is shown in Figures. The top open cooker box is made of half inch thick wooden box. Inside surface of the cooker box is covered by aluminium foil in all sides and bottom to direct solar radiation towards the cooking pots. Fil is pinned with wooden box. For reflecting surface, the wooden cooker box will not be able to absorb radiant heat. Heat will be transferred to cooker box only through the conduction process from aluminium foil but foil will not be able to transfer heat much as thin foil itself will absorb heat only from entrapped hot air and wood is not at all a good conductor. So, most of the absorbed heat will be retained in cooking pots only. Cooking pots should not be directly in touch with foil to avoid damage of the foil; rather these are to be kept on pot stands (common ring shaped stands made of steel wire available in utensil shops). Slotted seat is provided near the top of cooker box for cover glazing. Single cover glazing made of 3mm thick transparent window glass. Cooking pots are to be placed side by side inside of the cooker by opening hinged glass cover as usual. South facing booster reflector is hinged with the wooden cooker box. Frame of the glass cover is made from Lg. sheet. Booster Reflector is fabricated by fixing mirror glass on G.I sheet frame. Reflector can be adjusted in desired inclination through the adjustment of stays. To make leak proof joint in between wooden seating and closed cover glazing, nylon rubber pieces cut from old tube of motorcar tire is used as gasket material. For proper setting of gasket, small grooves may be cut at the topside of the wooden box seating. Gasket is also used inside of metallic channels of cover glazing for sealing of glass pans. Epoxy adhesive is used in addition for fixing gasket in all the joints. Dimensions of the cooker box are 18inch x 12inch x 6 inches. Length of the cooker, greater than its width is designed to increase the time gap in between reorientations. Diameter and height of the two aluminium cooking pots are 5inch and 3.2inch respectively. Cooking pots are painted dull black by automobile muffler paint.
Test Results
- Intensity of solar radiation: 0.6 KW per sq.mt
- Reorientation is done in every 30 minutes interval.
- Ambient temperature: 28 degree Celsius
- Peak temperature of empty cooking pot lid: 130 degree Celsius.
Cooking performance:
- Time taken for cooking 0.5kg of rice (weight after preparation): 2hrs 15min.
- Method of cooking- One part of rice mixed with water twice of rice volume and then placed in cooker.
- Time taken for cooking 200gm Dal (lintel soup): 2hrs 30min.
- Method of cooking- One part of Dal mixed with water (twice the volume of Dal) and then placed in cooker.
- Time taken for cooking boiled potato (2nos): 2hrs 30min.
- Method of cooking- Potatoes are cut into pieces and cleaned with water and then placed in cooking pot without adding of water. Wet surface of potato after water cleaning is sufficient for preparation of potato. Potato rather will not boil if water is added in the pot.
- Test of prepared food: Good

Elkhart police make arrest in shooting death
Elkhart police arrested a juvenile in the shooting death of 16-year-old Braxton Barham overnight.
Lt. Mike Sigsbee of the Elkhart Police Department said he was told they made an arrest before 4:30 a.m. He issued a press release later this Sunday morning, June 23.
Around 6:45 p.m. Saturday, police responded to reports of shots fired at 250 W. Garfield Ave. A youth later identified as 16-year-old Braxton Barham was found in the back yard of the home.
He was taken to Elkhart General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to police.
"They had a suspect from the beginning," Sigsbee said of police. They arrested the juvenile male once they located him.
More details will be made available later today, Sigsbee said.

The struggle with her teenage brother over the throne of Egypt was not going as well as Cleopatra VII had hoped. In 49 B.C., Pharaoh Ptolemy XIII—also her husband and, by the terms of their father's will, her co-ruler—had driven his sister from the palace at Alexandria after Cleopatra attempted to make herself the sole sovereign. The queen, then in her early twenties, fled to Syria and returned with a mercenary army, setting up camp just outside the capital.
Related Content
Meanwhile, pursuing a military rival who had fled to Egypt, the Roman general Julius Caesar arrived at Alexandria in the summer of 48 B.C., and found himself drawn into the Egyptian family feud. For decades Egypt had been a subservient ally to Rome, and preserving the stability of the Nile Valley, with its great agricultural wealth, was in Rome's economic interest. Caesar took up residence at Alexandria's royal palace and summoned the warring siblings for a peace conference, which he planned to arbitrate. But Ptolemy XIII's forces barred the return of the king's sister to Alexandria. Aware that Caesar's diplomatic intervention could help her regain the throne, Cleopatra hatched a scheme to sneak herself into the palace for an audience with Caesar. She persuaded her servant Apollodoros to wrap her in a carpet (or, according to some sources, a sack used for storing bedclothes), which he then presented to the 52-year old Roman.
The image of young Cleopatra tumbling out of an unfurled carpet has been dramatized in nearly every film about her, from the silent era to a 1999 TV miniseries, but it was also a key scene in the real Cleopatra's staging of her own life. "She was clearly using all her talents from the moment she arrived on the world stage before Caesar," says Egyptologist Joann Fletcher, author of a forthcoming biography, Cleopatra the Great.
Like most monarchs of her time, Cleopatra saw herself as divine; from birth she and other members of her family were declared to be gods and goddesses. Highly image-conscious, Cleopatra maintained her mystique through shows of splendor, identifying herself with the deities Isis and Aphrodite, and in effect creating much of the mythology that surrounds her to this day. Though Hollywood versions of her story are jam-packed with anachronisms, embellishments, exaggerations and inaccuracies, the Cleopatras of Elizabeth Taylor, Vivien Leigh and Claudette Colbert do share with the real queen a love of pageantry. "Cleopatra was a mistress of disguise and costume," says Fletcher. "She could reinvent herself to suit the occasion, and I think that's a mark of the consummate politician."
When Cleopatra emerged from the carpet—probably somewhat disheveled, but dressed in her best finery—and begged Caesar for aid, the gesture won over Rome's future dictator-for-life. With his help Cleopatra regained Egypt's throne. Ptolemy XIII rebelled against the armistice that Caesar had imposed, but in the ensuing civil war he drowned in the Nile, leaving Cleopatra safely in power.
Though Cleopatra bore him a son, Caesar was already married, and Egyptian custom decreed that Cleopatra marry her remaining brother, Ptolemy XIV. Caesar was assassinated in 44 B.C., and with her ally gone Cleopatra had Ptolemy XIV killed to prevent any challenges to her son's succession. To solidify her grip on the throne, she dispatched her rebellious sister Arsinoe as well. Such ruthlessness was not only a common feature of Egyptian dynastic politics in Cleopatra's day, it was necessary to ensure her own survival and that of her son. With all domestic threats removed, Cleopatra set about the business of ruling Egypt, the richest nation in the Mediterranean world, and the last to remain independent of Rome.
What kind of pharaoh was Cleopatra? The few remaining contemporary Egyptian sources suggest that she was very popular among her own people. Egypt's Alexandria-based rulers, including Cleopatra, were ethnically Greek, descended from Alexander the Great's general Ptolemy I Soter. They would have spoken Greek and observed Greek customs, separating themselves from the ethnically Egyptian majority. But unlike her forebears, Cleopatra actually bothered to learn the Egyptian language. For Egyptian audiences, she commissioned portraits of herself in the traditional Egyptian style. In one papyrus dated to 35 B.C. Cleopatra is called Philopatris, "she who loves her country." By identifying herself as a truly Egyptian pharaoh, Cleopatra used patriotism to cement her position.

What is RM Cash
Cam in MA
Spend your money on a nice set of boots. Took the lightest fall with these boots on and snapped my tibia and fibula. Weak support in these boots lead to $9,000 in Medical Bills and 3 Long months of Pain and immobility. Buy a higher quality boot. MAKE AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!!!Read All Reviews
