Today is the start of a new gold making series, and no this isn't an april fool's prank like last year. I'm going to show you how to invest, starting now, in order to make one million gold in cataclysm. That's right, one million gold.
You can join the forum discussion on cataclysm speculation as well.
Let the lessons begin!
Tip #1: Herbs and Goblins (Plus bags!)
Specialization bags for herbing as well as straight netherweave bags are going to be huge sellers for Goblins (the netherweave bags for Worgen as well but they would probably prefer skinning bags instead of herbing bags!). All herbs from the old world and outland are going to be huge sellers for people leveling their alchemy, and since Goblins get an alchemy bonus you can bet your boots that many will pick up herbing along with alchemy.
How can you start preparing for this? Start buying the mats on the ah, even for full price now (but not more) and stockpile like crazy. So you'll want herbs, netherweave cloth, and some profession bags. You can also focus on infinite dust and frostweave cloth for frostweave bags, since those will most likely sell almost as well as their 16 slot cousins.
There is no way that you will be able to stockpile enough.... so go nuts. I'm going to invest huge percentages of my income into these items, in the hopes that inflation and insane demand early on will make me literally a million gold from cataclysm. I would think that if you have 100,000 to 200,000 gold ready to invest you can do the same, and if you get really lucky on your purchases do something similar with only 50,000 gold. As long as you have the bank space and make the right purchases you are going to make a killing.
Today is the start of a new gold making series, and no this isn't an april fool's prank like last year. I'm going to show you how to invest, starting now, in order to make one million gold in cataclysm. That's right, one million gold.

That's a great tip bobreaze for making gold in the expansion, but how does it build money for you in cataclysm using the money you have currently? The whole idea behind this series of tips is to turn the money you have now into gold later through investing and making use of natural inflation.

I don't have a tip but rather a question that I have discussed with friends on several occasions over the last month and which we have been unable to resolve.
We suspect that the value of many Northrend items will decline in advance of or after the expansion. The market for flasks, for example, will probably crash. We were less sure about what would happen to the prices of other items, particularly those used for leveling professions.
Which items do you expect to increase in value? Which do you expect to decline in value? When do you expect prices to begin changing?
Markco said... April 1, 2010 at 10:28 PM
I believe tip 3 is about enchanting mats... sit tight :)
Anonymous said... April 2, 2010 at 10:16 AM
Any specific herbs come to your mind? Or will it be all herbs? I guess some herbs will be more "usefull" for people leveling Alchemy/Inscription
Anonymous said... April 8, 2010 at 1:53 PM
Not sure I fully understand the tip since you mentioned both bags and herbs. You said to stockpile 'mats'...but do you mean old world herbs or mats for bags or both? The comment that Goblins will probably pick up herb and alchemy both semi contradicts the huge predicted inflation for old world herbs on the AH after xpac, if many goblins will be picking the herbs themselves.
Ben said... April 9, 2010 at 6:13 PM
well, even with a gather proffesion to go with alch, people can get lazy to pick them up and also considering the thousands of goblins that will be made and probably with herb and alch, You can always buy more herbs but there is a very limited ammount of herbs to farm in those first few weeks.
Also a question for markco, You said you were going to buy all of the low level proffesion items for every one of them, But not everything after in one of your posts. Can you please explain why not atleast some more levels?
Anonymous said... April 18, 2010 at 1:31 PM
Does this only apply to horde side then? Or will Alliance also be interested in buying herbs?

A tad long...
Here is what happened. I drive a friend once a month to Walmart so he can do his food shopping. He receives food stamps and does not have a car. Just to give you a little insight about this guy. He is in his mid 50's has spent time in jail for various things but that was back in his younger days. He is still a pretty ruff looking guy that most would want to avoid if you did not know him.
He does not know that I carry. He doesn't need to know either but tonight on the way home while driving down a residential street a car started to back out onto the road on the passenger side. Well I stopped, let the car back up but then the car pulled to the shoulder so I figured they where parking. They made no intention of pulling into traffic, no turn indictor so I proceeded to go pass them.
Well according to my friend the driver flipped me off. I didn't see it but my friend flipped him the bird right back and one of his first verbal reactions was to me. Let that blank, blank, blank follow us home. I'll knock his blank teeth in.
Well knowing this man for a few years now I knew he was not joking. He would not back down and would gladly throw the first punch. Well the car did start to follow and I was not far from the house but they changed their mine and turned around.
A lot flooded into my brain at once. My friend doesn't know I'm armed and I'm not going to get into a fight with these idiots over someone flipping me the bird that I didn't even respond to but my friend did.
If they had followed I would have just kept driving past the house and if they continued to follow for a minute or two after I would have dialed 911 to report them.
So has anyone else had a friend do something such as this when you are armed and they didn't know you where and it now sticks you in an awkward position.
BTW, I'm not going to stop taking him to the store once a month because he is a bit of a hot head at times. He is a very nice guy most of the time.

The top is a tank style with a corset style back. The back has satin flowers at the base of the corset. It looks stunning! The bottom has a satin layer over many layers of toile.

Dr. Gott: See dermatologist about rosacea problems
Dear Dr. Gott: For about two years, I had constant facial pain in my cheeks, jaw and behind my eyes with a feeling of constant pressure in my upper palate, sinuses, jaw and cheek, in addition to the pain and pressure in my front teeth.

By Teon. Owen. Cromwell, Jr.
Ten years after Alice Alquist was murdered in her home, her niece, Paula (Ingrid Bergman) and Paula's new husband, Gregory Anton (Charles Boyer), take up residence in the house. After Paula discovers a letter from a mysterious and unknown man named Sergis Bauer, strange occurrences begin to happen around the home. Paula begins to fear that she is going mad, and the couple's new maid, Nancy (Angela Lansbury), does nothing to improve the situation. When Scotland Yard detective Brian Cameron (Joseph Cotten) appears on the scene Paula believes he can help her solve the mystery of these occurrences before she is driven insane.
Released in May of 1944, Gaslight is a mystery-thriller from MGM Studios and legendary director George Cukor. The is an adaptation of a very successful play which was later made into a successful 1940 film. MGM purchased the rights with the stipulation that all prints of the previous film be destroyed including, but not limited to, destroying the negative. These efforts proved ultimately to be unsuccessful. The film earned Bergman her second Academy Award Nomination for Best Actress, and her first win. However, this almost never happened. When David O. Selznick (with whom Bergman was under contract with at the time) found out that Charles Boyer's contract guaranteed him top billing, Selznick initially refused to loan Bergman to MGM. It was only after pleading from Bergman that Selznick finally relented. The film was also Angela Lansbury's debut and garnered her an Academy Award Nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
The plot is simple, and there are moments where the film seems a bit dated, but that all pales in comparison once you see the whole picture. In many ways, the film was ahead of its time. The performances are one of the main selling points of the film. Ingrid Bergman unequivocally deserved her Oscar, taking a character which could have been one dimensional and making her sympathetic, engaging even. Charles Boyer does such a fantastic job at portraying the antagonist that there may be moments where you might find yourself yelling at the screen. Although the story does, of course, have some less plausible elements it is written, directed and acted superbly enough that the seams rarely show. At the end of the day, Gaslight is a fantastic psychological thriller (in the vein of the best Hitchcock) which has held-up for 70 years, and will continue to do so for many more.
- Directed by — George Cukor
- Produced by — Arthur Hornblow Jr
- Written by — John Van Druten, Walter Reisch, John L. Balderston Gas Light (based on the play Gas Light by Patrick Hamilton)
- Starring — Charles Boyer, Ingrid Bergman, Joseph Cotten, Angela Lansbury
- Music by — Bronisław Kaper

I like having Aero enabled when I have to work. Sometimes I like to play games though.
What's the performance hit on games? Is there a performance hit at all from using Aero?
I like having Aero enabled when I have to work. Sometimes I like to play games though.
Statistically, there is no performance hit.
There are numerous benchmarks that turning off Aero does not imporve frame rates. An often cited article is the Firing Squad article.
Another more recent article is the Lifehacker article.
You would think a bunch of computer geeks would know how to keep AERO on(technically the DWM) AND still play their games.
The technical explanation is that only one program can have exclusive control of the GPU. So the program can either ask DWM to disable itself, or it also does so by itself if a program tries to make a direct call to the primary graphics driver rather than, you know, crashing the system.
Yes, there most definitely is. Aero keeps taking away video memory that could otherwise have been spent on the game.

Comments about Selle Italia SL Kit Carbonio Flow SE Saddle:
I bought this seat to replace a Ritchie Brither's comp seat that I've had since I bought my carbon motobecane five years ago. Why I didn't replace it five years ago I'll never know. This is my first high end seat and it is a night and day difference between my old seat. I've only put 100 miles on the new saddle but have mug much less soreness after rides. I've done two 25-30 mile rides and didn't really notice it which was great. I'm doing a 50 this weekend but assume it will be great. I'm 6'4" and weigh 230lbs (athletic build) and it holds up just fine. The looks are great and I have had much less pressure on prostrate area which is great!!! For the Nashbar price for this saddle it is a no-brainer in my opinion.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not for me
By The Hammer
from St. Louis, Mo
Seems well made but did not feel good from the start. Road 26 miles and it didn't get any better. Was standing toward the end to avoid sitting.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Horror turns to Happiness
By Bobbers
from W Granby CT
Terrified when I first saw it. I thought how can this be comfortable but I gave it a try and it is perfect. 5 Minutes on the bike and I forgot all about it. I've only ridden 250 miles on it but hope it lasts a couple thousand miles. I will buy this saddle again when it wears out.
When I 1st opened the box, I was horrified. As small as I am (5'7" 140lb) I never thought I would be comfortable riding on this but took a shot. Within 5 minutes of riding I forgot all about the saddle and enjoyed my ride. That is happiness. I only have 250 miles on it since I bought it but it is wonderful. I hope it lasts a couple thousand miles. Will buy another one if they still make it then.
Great Value!
By Supercyclist
from N. NJ
Replaced a worn saddle costing 3x. Better made. Feels just as good. Exactly 230 grams, as advertised. That's 8 pounces, less than 2 ounces more than my old one. I can hardly feel the extra weight when riding ;).
Excellent value
By Renaissance Man
from New Orleans, LA
I haven't yet used this saddle on any rides of much more than two hours, but so far it's been quite comfortable. I haven't thought about the saddle while riding, which is exactly the way it should be. It may be a different story on rides of four or more hours, but so far, so good.
Nice fit!
By Cantrax
from Long Beach, Ca
Seat fits my body perfect! Padding is good, could be slightly better for long 4 hour rides. Overall a great seat and very happy with it so far.

Not the saddle for me
By Chuck
from Florida
About Me Casual/ Recreational
I bought this saddle following criticism that my wide saddle isn't the right one. I measured my sit bones and added the recommended 10mm to arrive at the size of saddle I'd need. After persevering for almost two weeks, I had to put my old saddle back on. The pain was bad enough to make me get off the bike and wheel it home. There's nothing wrong with the saddle in itself, but it's not appropriate for a Fat bike or a cruiser with a 185 lb man on it, with an upright posture. Probably fine for a lighter person on a road bike with drops. I only gave it one star because it was so uncomfortable, but only for me.
Good Saddle

so far it feels better than my old fizik arione saddle.
Great saddle

About Me Competitive Cyclist
I'm a mountain biker. I use it in both my single speed and gear bikes.... In my opinion there is no better saddle. But it is also my opinion that saddles are personal. What I mean by this is that what is awesome to me may feel horrible to some one else

First of all, my apologies. I guess I lied to you when I said article number 100 was my last column. I couldn't stay away for long, not when examiner.com gave in to my request for a sports column. So, if you're not already privy to the fact, I am now also the Minneapolis Pro Sports Examiner. If you have an interest in sports, I urge you to check out my new column. And, if you like what you see, please subscribe. It's free and you will be emailed my latest columns.
Alright, since that's out of the way allow me to delve into what's foremost on my mind: Inaccurate journalism and what can be done about it - and no, I'm not just referring to the content of my columns. During the unfolding investigation in the Boston bombing case, the media was criticized for jumping to conclusions and making inaccurate reports in an effort to be first with information...and rightly so. The 24-hour news cycle means steep competition amongst cable networks, all eager to be the first with the scoop. The confusion surrounding the unfolding search for suspects in the bombing led to unfounded reports of a Saudi national being a 'person of interest' in the case, as well as incorrect reports of more explosive devices planted elsewhere in Boston.
On The Daily Show, comedian Jon Stewart mocked CNN for its reporting "exclusive" saying the term actually meant completely fing wrong. He proceeded to play several clips of Wolf Blitzer bragging of the network's "exclusive reporting" of the (initial) arrest of a suspect in the case.
"Did any of your sources end their tip-offs with the phrase 'Ba ba booey?'" Stewart said, later calling it a "news story as imagined by M. Night Shyamalan."
When CNN erroneously reported the arrest made in the Bombing, the FBI had to issue this statement:
"Contrary to widespread reporting, no arrest has been made in connection with the Boston Marathon attack. Over the past day and a half, there have been a number of press reports based on information from unofficial sources that has been inaccurate. Since these stories often have unintended consequences, we ask the media, particularly at this early stage of the investigation, to exercise caution and attempt to verify information through appropriate official channels before reporting."
This may have been a first in the annals of broadcast media: The police reprimanding media outlets for impeding their investigation. There are plenty of good things that can come out of real-time news reports in the wake of a tragedy, even if some of those reports prove wrong. But when the incident involves terror felt at a national level, inaccurate reports can often have the adverse effect of terrorizing the community even further. The predisposition of news organizations to place blame at the feet of Muslims, Arabs, or any given "dark skinned individual" not only is misleading, it's dangerous. Furthermore, it casts unnecessary suspicions on a large group of people with no specifics on identifying the real suspect.
So what can be done about this? Perhaps nothing. As I mentioned earlier, broadcast media is too competitive in the modern age with too many different networks vying for the breaking story. About all we can do is hope that those with influence - like Stewart, for instance - can persuade news organizations into upholding a higher standard of journalism for the public's sake; because, who knows, there may come a time when all of our lives depend on it.

Before Honourable Madam Justice C.K. Makungu
For the Plaintiff: Mr. A. Imonda of Messrs A. Imonda & Co.
For the 1st Defendant: Mr. P. Chamutangi - In-house Legal
Counsel ZCCM (IH) Plc
For the 2nd Defendant: Mr. P. Kasonde of Messrs Patrick Kasonde
& Co.
For the 3rd Defendant: Mr. E. Banda of Messrs MNB Legal
Cases Referred to:
1. Timothy Hamaundu Muuka Mudenda vs Tobacco Board of
Zambia SCZ No. 49 of 1998.
2. ZCCM Ltd & O. K. Simwinga vs Francis Khama Appeal No. 71 of 2001
3. G. F. Construction (1976) Ltd vs Rudnap (Z) Ltd and Another (1999) ZR 134
4. Titus Chinyoyi vs ZCCM Investment Holdings Plc and Angela Mwape Kashiwa Appeal No. 120/2007 (Unreported).
This matter is a consolidation of cause No. 2006/HK/247 where Fred Banda sued ZCCM Investment Holdings Plc and Lorraine Nankonde Banda as 1st and 2nd Defendant respectively, claiming for a declaration that he is the rightful owner of House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East Kitwe which he purchased from ZCCM and for possession of the house, mesne profits to be paid by the 2nd Defendant from 31st March 1999 to date of vacating at K900,000 per month, interest and costs. AND cause No. 2007/HK/508 where Astrida Mwape has sued Fred Banda, Moffat Banda and ZCCM Investment Holdings Plc as 1st, 2nd and 3rd Defendants respectively. Her claims are as follows:
1. An Order or declaration that she and the 1st and 2nd Defendants are entitled to occupy the houses purchased by them as an incidence of their employment with the 3rd Defendant.
2. An order compelling the 2nd Defendant to vacate house No. 121 Kalungwish Street in favour of the 1st Defendant and a consequent order against the 1st Defendant to vacate Flat No. 32 club Street in her favour.
3. Against the 3rd Defendant payment of mesne profits at the rate of K1,000,000.00 from the date of the judgment granting her possession of House No. 149 Luela Street.
4. Against the 3rd Defendant an order that they execute all such documents as will be required to convey the subject properties to their respective purchasers including payment of all statutory charges.
5. Interest on all amounts adjudged to be due to the Plaintiff.
6. Costs
On 18th February, 2008, Moffat Banda applied that his name be struck out from cause No. 2007/HK/508 for misjoinder and the application was granted by the Deputy Registrar on the ground that Astrida Mwape had no cause of action against him.
In case No. 2006/HK/247, ZCCM Investment Holdings Plc filed a Notice of Admission of Plaintiff's claims on 26th July, 2006. The Notice reads as follows:-
"1. ZCCM Limited duly sold and the Plaintiff duly
purchased House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street
Nkana East - Kitwe.
2. The Plaintiff has fully paid the purchase price
and is entitled to an order for vacant possession.
3. That ZCCM Limited has no Tenancy
Agreement or contract of Sale of House
No. 121 Kalungwish Street, Nkana East,
Kitwe with Lorraine Nankonde Banda.
4. That House No. 121 Kalungwish Street,
Nkana East - Kitwe was officially allocated
to Moffat Banda as an incidence of his
employment with ZCCM Limited.
5. That the official occupant of House No. 121
Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East, Kitwe Moffat
Banda declined to purchase the house as
sitting tenant and was offered an alternative
House No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East,
Kitwe which Moffat Banda accepted, paid for and
is in possession or control of the said house.
6. That Lorraine Nankonde Banda was not an employee
of ZCCM Limited.
7. That the claim to purchase ZCCM houses by former
employees of ZCCM clubs was dismissed by the
Industrial Relations court in the complaint of
Kennedy Kalunga & Others vs ZCCM Comp. No.
161 of 1999 and the 2nd Defendant is bound by the
provisions of Section 85 (6) of the Industrial and
Labour Relations Act Cap 269."
Lorraine Nankonde Banda's Amended Defence and Counter Claim
filed in cause No. 2006/HK/247 on 28th November 2007 is briefly that:
"She denies the allegations made by the Plaintiff.
She will aver that she is the sitting tenant entitled
to purchase the house she occupies in accordance
with the home empowerment policy. And that the
action is statute barred as it was instituted after
6 years. The action is irregular as there is already
another case involving the same parties and the
same subject matter before the Supreme Court.
Lorraine Banda counter claims that she has always
been the sitting tenant of the house in question.
And that the Plaintiff has never been a sitting
tenant and that the offer to the Plaintiff was wrongful
and therefore null and void. So the court should
dismiss the action and make an order that since she
was seconded to Power Dyanamos Football Club, she
is entitled to purchase the house she occupies as
a sitting tenant. In the alternative an order that
the 1st Defendant do find a suitable house and offer it
to her to purchase and damages to be paid by ZCCM
to her for wrongful refusal to sell her the house.
She also claims interest and costs."
The Reply and Defence to Counter Claim filed on behalf of Fred Banda on 18th August 2006 in cause No. 2006/HK/247 is as follows :
"Save in so far as the same consists of admissions,
the Plaintiff joins issue with the 2nd Defendant on
her defence and will sate as follows:
(i) That there is no contract between the Plaintiff
and the 2nd Defendant to give rise to reference
to the statute of limitation.
(ii) That the Contract between the Plaintiff and ZCCM Limited for the Sale or Purchase of House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East Kitwe has not been breached by any of the parties thereto andthe 2nd Defendant is not a party thereto.
(iii) That the obligation of the 2nd Defendant to pay mesne profits or rent for occupation of the house is continuing obligation and cannot be extinguished by lapse of time.
(iv) That Power Dynamos Football Club was not a subsidiary of ZCCM Limited and was not a registered Club under the Societies Act or Club Registration Act. The 2nd Defendant was therefore employed by an illegal and illegitimate entity."
In summary, Astrida Mwape's claims contained in her statement of claim in cause No. 2001/HK/508 are as follows:
Larraine Banda is not entitled to possession
of House No.121 Kalungwishi Street which
belongs to Fred Banda. Fred Banda has
been occupying Flat No. 32 club Street Nkana
East Kitwe which she (Asrida) bought from ZCCM
as an incidence of her employment.
It is clear from the defence that was filed by Moffat Banda before his name was struck out from the proceedings for misjoinder that Lorraine Nankonde Banda is his wife who claims that she was also employed by ZCCM and applied to ZCCM to purchase House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street which ZCCM refused to sell her, so she has challenged ZCCM in that regard. They are in occupation of that house as a couple but Moffat Banda who also worked for ZCCM bought House No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East - Kitwe from ZCCM as a former employee of that Company.
In case No. 2007/HK/508 Fred Banda's defence was in summary that:
"Vacation of House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street,
Nkana East Kitwe by Lorraine Nankonde Banda
and her husband to allow him occupy it is a
pre-requisite to Astrida Mwape taking possession
of Flat No. 32 Club Street, Nkana West, Kitwe."
In case No. 2006/HK/247 ZCCM's defence to Lorraine Banda's amended Counter Claim filed herein on 9th January 2008 is as follows:
1. The contents of the 2nd Defendant's counter claim
are denied as the 2nd Defendant has never entered
into a tenancy agreement with the 1st Defendant.
2. The 1st Defendant will aver that the offer of house
No. 121 Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East Kitwe
to the Plaintiff was lawful as the said Plaintiff
was an employee of the ZCCM at the material time
and the Plaintiff and 1st Defendant will further aver
that house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East
- Kitwe was allocated and occupied by Moffat Banda
as an incident of his employment with ZCCM.
3. The 1st Defendant will also aver that when Moffat
Banda declined to buy House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East, Kitwe he was sold House No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East, Kitwe by the 1st Defendant.
4. The 1st Defendant admits that the 2nd Defendant was
its employee but was not allocated any house by the 1st Defendant.
5. Save as herein specifically admitted the 1st Defendant denies each and every allegation contained in the 2nd Defendants amended Counter Claim."
A summary of the evidence adduced herein is as follows:
PW1 Fred Banda testified that he worked for ZCCM Nkana Division from 31st March 1995 until 31st March, 2000. In July 1997 when ZCCM started selling its stock of houses to its employees he was staying at 78 Kpark Flats, Nkana West, Kitwe. He said under the scheme of selling houses, ZCCM had allowed employees to buy houses they were staying in as sitting tenants or on application to buy any other available Company house. He did not apply to purchase the flat he was occupying but for House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East Kitwe from a list of houses that were advertised for sale. Before making the application he checked with Nkana Division Housing Department as to who the official sitting tenant of the house was and why it was advertised. He was informed that the sitting tenant of the house was one Mr Moffat Banda who was working for ZCCM at Nkana Division Concentrator Department. Thereafter he went and confirmed with Moffat Banda that he was the sitting tenant. Moffat Banda informed him that he had opted to buy House No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East,Kitwe instead of 121 Kalungwishi Street.
PW1 explained that after lodging his application, Nkana Division Housing Sale Committee invited him for interviews. After attending the interviews, he was offered the house in November, 1998. His letter of offer is on pages 1 - 3 of the Plaintiff's bundle of documents filed herein on 24th August 2006. He endorsed the last page of the offer in acceptance of the offer. On 10th November 2009 he entered into a Contract of Sale with ZCCM in relation to the same house, copy of which is on pages 4 - 6 of the Plaintiffs bundle of documents. He later received a letter dated 17th March 1999 from the vendor informing him that the full purchase price had been deducted from his accrued terminal benefits. The letter is on page 7 of his bundle of documents. Thereafter he received a copy of the letter dated 22nd March 1999 written by the company to Moffat Banda informing him that house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street which he was renting from ZCCM had been sold to him (PW1). PW1 said he later requested Moffat Banda to vacate the house but he declined saying that House No 149 Luela Street Nkana East Kitwe that he had bought from ZCCM was occupied by somebody else who had obtained an injunction restraining him from evicting her.
PW1 further stated that whilst waiting for Moffat Banda to vacate the house, he received a writ of summons and an injunction restraining the defendants from evicting her from the house. He was sued with ZCCM over the same house by Moffat Banda's sister in law by the name of Florence Nankonde who was claiming to be the sitting tenant entitled to purchase it. Copies of the Writ of summons, a Statement of claim, Affidavit of Service and Notice of Discontinuance filed in that matter are exhibited in the Plaintiff's Bundle of documents from pages 9 to 15. The case was wholly discontinued on 18th August, 1999.
The said affidavit of service was sworn by Loraine Nankonde Banda the 2nd Defendant herein. PW1 said Lorraine Nankonde Banda is the one who actually served him with the court process relating to Florence Nankonde's case. When that matter was discontinued, he sued Moffat Banda for Possession of the house in the Kitwe Magistrate Courts where it turned out that Moffat Banda had no interest in that house but his wife. Thereafter he instituted this action.
Under cross examination he said that to the best of his knowledge Moffat Banda has vacant possession of house No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East - Kitwe. He did not know whether Lorraine Banda ever worked for ZCCM. He was evicted from the Kpark Flat by the person who had bought it. Then ZCCM allocated him with Flat No. 32 Club Street which he still occupies. He has never lived in House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe. He further stated that he has no interest in the flat that he occupies. He just resides there because he has been unable to take possession of house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East Kitwe. He is aware that the Flat in question was sold to Astrida Mwape Ndlovu by ZCCM.
DW1 Lesa Patrick Kanyanta who was called on behalf of the 1st Defendant testified that in 1999 he was working for ZCCM Nkana Division as an Artisan. He was also the Vice Chairman of the Mine Workers Union of Zambia. He was also a member of the Nkana Division House Sale Committee. He said the persons eligible to purchase ZCCM houses were employees of ZCCM and each division had its own employees and its own houses. Each Division House Sale Committee was responsible for selling houses to employees of that particular division. If the occupant of a ZCCM house refused to purchase it, that house would be advertised for sale to other ZCCM employees. Fred Banda applied for a house and was offered house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe which Moffat Banda who was a sitting tenant had refused to purchase. That house was advertised upon Mr Banda's refusal to purchase it.
The 2nd Defendant gave evidence as DW2. She said that in 1995 she was employed by ZCCM Power Department as an Accountant. In the same year she was seconded to Power Dynamo's Football Club where she worked until 1998 when she was declared redundant by ZCCM. She referred to page 2 of the Defendant's bundle of documents which she filed herein on 5th February, 2007 which is a copy of her letter of employment dated 8th April, 1995 indicating her conditions of service. She also referred to page 3 of the same bundle of documents which is a copy of her redundancy letter dated 18th December 1998. She also referred to pages 5 to 11 of the same bundle of documents where she has exhibited the Rules Governing the sale of ZCCM houses to Zambian Employees.
She further stated that she has been a sitting tenant of House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East – Kitwe for about 20 years. The house was sold to a ZCCM employee who was not a sitting tenant. She added that she qualifies to buy the house pursuant to Clause 2 (1), (3), (6) of the rules governing the sale of ZCCM houses. She said at the material time she was married to a ZCCM employee with whom she was staying in the house as ZCCM did not offer her alternative accommodation. She maintained her Counter Claim.
Under cross examination she said that by the time that she applied to ZCCM for employment, she was staying at house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East - Kitwe which was allocated to her husband Moffat Banda who was an employee of ZCCM. She further stated that her application for employment on page 1 of her bundle of documents indicates the said address as her residential address. She was being paid under mine No. ZP3241. Her husband never applied to ZCCM to buy House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East - Kitwe instead he bought house No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East - Kitwe which he had never lived in.
She admitted that her sister Florence Nankonde had sued ZCCM and Fred Banda in case No. 1999/HN/24. In that matter, in paragraph 1 of the Statement of Claim her sister had claimed that she was occupying House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe which was allocated to her in 1991 by her employer ZCCM. She said she had sworn an affidavit of service in that matter describing herself as a business lady and sister to the Plaintiff. She further stated that she was employed by ZCCM in salary grade SG1 and was not allocated a house as she was already staying in a ZCCM house by virtue of her marriage.
DW3 Noel Sandukiya called by the 2nd Defendant testified that he has known the 2nd Defendant since February 1995 when he started working with her at ZCCM power division. He said he was seconded to Power Dynamos Football Club in February 1995 and qualified to buy a ZCCM Company house. ZCCM offered him a house in which he was a sitting tenant, which he bought.
At the end of DW3's testimony, Learned Counsel for the 3rd Defendant said that his client had agreed with him not to give evidence or call witnesses. So she was relying on the evidence adduced by Fred Banda because she is based in England with her family and does not dispute Fred Banda's claims against ZCCM, just like ZCCM.
It is not in dispute that the Plaintiff is a former employee of the 1st Defendant Company who bought house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street, Nkana East - Kitwe from the company in November 1998. The said house was advertised for sale when Moffat Banda who is also a former employee of ZCCM was in occupation as a sitting tenant.
It is also not in dispute that the 2nd Defendant was employed by the 1st Defendant when her husband Moffat Banda had already been allocated the house. Moffat Banda had an opportunity to purchase the said house from the 1st Defendant Company but opted to buy house No. 149 Luela Street Nkana East - Kitwe from the same Company. The 2nd Defendant and her family have remained in occupation of house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East – Kitwe to date. Therefore, the Plaintiff has been unable to move to the house that he bought and has remained in occupation of Flat No. 32 Club Street Flats Nkana West, Kitwe which ZCCM had sold to its former employee the 3rd Defendant.
The of Sale of Flat No. 32 Club Street on 31st August 1999 is not in issue. Neither is the sale of house No. 149 Luela.
It is also not in dispute that the 1st Defendant never allocated house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe to the 2nd Defendant. The Company did not even offer the said house for sale to the 2nd Defendant.
The issues to be determined are as follows:
1. Whether or not the 2nd Defendant was employed by ZCCM
2. Whether or not the 2nd Defendant has the right to purchase the house that she is occupying or to continue staying there.
3. Whether or not the Plaintiff has the right to continue staying in the 3rd Defendant's Flat.
To answer the first question I have carefully read the documents with regard to the 2nd Defendant's employment in the Defendant's bundle of Documents filed herein on 5th February 2007. From document No. 2 dated 8th April, 1995 which is on the ZCCM Ltd Power Division Kitwe letter head I am satisfied that the 2nd Defendant was employed by ZCCM Ltd which after privatization was changed to ZCCM Investment Holdings Plc. The letter reads as follows:
" 8th April, 1995
Mrs Lorraine N Banda
Mine No. PDS0092
Dear Madam,
We are pleased to inform you that you are seconded
to Power Dynamos Football Club. During the period
of tenure as Accountant for Power Dynamos Football
Club, you will be treated as being on unpaid leave
of absence from ZCCM, Power Division.
Upon termination of your contract with Power Dynamos FootballClub you will retake your appointment under ZCCM Limited, Power Division and you will be redeployed in the same grade you were employed prior to your secondment to Power Dynamos football Club.
Yours faithfully
J. Chisenga
cc: - Head of Finance
- Manager – Power Dynamos football Club
- SPO Welfare
- File."
It is important to note that in the pleadings the 1st Defendant initially denied that the 2nd Defendant was its employee but later admitted that she was employed by the Company.
It is clear from document No. 3 in the 2nd Defendants Bundle of documents which is a copy of a letter of redundancy from ZCCM Ltd Power Division to the 2nd Defendant that she was declared redundant on 18th December, 1998 before ZCCM started selling houses to its employees.
I find that ZCCM started selling its stock of houses to its Zambian employees, giving priority to sitting tenants on 22nd July 1997. There were written rules governing the sale of those houses.
To tackle the second question, I have carefully considered the rules governing the sale of ZCCM houses, the evidence on record and the written submissions filed by all the advocates in support of their clients cases. I will not reproduce the submissions but will follow some of the authorities cited therein.
Mr Imonda cited and relied upon the case of Timothy Hamaundu Muuka Mudenda vs Tobacco Board of Zambia (1) to fortify his argument that the 2nd Defendant has no legal right to purchase house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe. In that case the Supreme Court held inter alia that:
" We hold the view that in this case although
there may have been political pronouncements,
the legal position has always been that a licencee
is not a sitting tenant at law and has no
legal right to purchase the house he is living in
except where there has been a firm offer and
acceptance of the offer to purchase of that house."
I accept Mr Imonda's submission that since the 2nd Defendant went into occupation of the house because of her marriage to Moffat Banda whom she resides with and has not been offered the house to purchase, she has failed to establish a legal right to purchase it.
I do not accept Mr Kasonde's submissions that the 2nd Defendant as a sitting tenant should have been given first priority to purchase the house. And that only if she had refused to buy the house should the Company have advertised it for sale to other workers. Mr Kasonde argued that there was no evidence that the Plaintiff abided by the procedure of applying to buy House No. 121 Kalungwish Street, Nkana East - Kitwe. The vital document (an application for the house) was not before court. The only document before Court was an offer made by the first Defendant to the Plaintiff which refers to his application, which could have been quite accessible if requested for, and if indeed it did exist.
Mr Kasonde further submitted that his client should be offered the house on the same terms. Alternatively if the 1st Defendant fails to secure a house to sell to the Plaintiff, damages to the time of vacating the house she currently occupies be ordered payable to her so that she could acquire a house of similar standing in a similar residential area. He said his client should not suffer any disadvantage at all because she qualifies to purchase the house.
My reasons for not accepting Mr Kasonde's submissions are as follows:
The Rules governing the sale of ZCCM houses to Zambian
employees provide under clause 2 on Eligibility that:
"(i) Priority will be given to sitting tenants."
"(v) That the employees who are seconded to
subsidiary companies or any other institution,
shall qualify"
"(vi) Married couples both of whom work for ZCCM will
each quality to buy a house of their own right."
In this case priority to buy house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe was given to the 2nd Defendant's husband who was the sitting tenant recognized by the Company. When he refused to buy it, the Company was free to advertise it for sale. Since there is no evidence that the 2nd Defendant had applied to purchase it, the company was free to deal with the persons who had applied for it. The Plaintiffs evidence that he had applied for the house and was interviewed before an offer was made to him was not challenged in cross examination and there is no evidence to the contrary. So I find that he did apply for the house and that is why the offer refers to his application. I find that proper procedure was followed when the house was sold to the Plaintiff.
It is clear that when the Plaintiff asked Moffat Banda whether he was buying the house, he said that he had opted to buy 149 Luela Street, Nkana East – Kitwe. He did not say that his wife wanted to buy House No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe. So the Plaintiff was not aware that the 2nd Defendant was interested in buying the house.
In the case of ZCCM Ltd and O.K. Simwinga vs Francis Nkama (2) which was cited by counsel for the 1st Defendant, the Supreme Court ruled that:
"Although the Respondent was a sitting tenant
he was not such a sitting tenant as to come within
the general policy empowering Zambians to own
houses ……"
The Supreme Court went on to say that:
"The Respondent failed to establish his legal
right to purchase the house as he had not
shown any offer from the 1st Respondent and
he had not shown that his tenancy agreement
had a provision of first offer to buy the house."
In the present case I find that although the 2nd Defendant has lived in the house for a long time, she has never had a tenancy agreement with ZCCM and was not offered the house. She was permitted to occupy the house by her husband. In other words she was her husband's licencee.
The 2nd Defendant was not even sure that she was a sitting tenant thus she swore an Affidavit of Service in cause No. 1999/HN/24.
For the foregoing reasons, I order that the Plaintiff is entitled to possession of house No. 121 Kalungwishi Street Nkana East - Kitwe as the rightful owner. The Plaintiff is at liberty to issue a writ of possession if the 2nd Defendant does not vacate the house within 30 days from the date of this judgment.
As regards the Plaintiff's claim for rent or mesne profits from the 2nd Defendant, in the case of G. F. Construction (1976) Ltd vs Rudnap (Z) Ltd and Another (3) the Supreme Court said that mesne profits are damages awarded to a Landlord for holding over a tenancy by a tenant and did not award mesne profits to the respondents as there was no tenancy agreement. However, in the case of Titus Chinyonyi vs ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc and Angela Mwape Kashiwa (4) where the High Court had refused to grant mesne profits on the ground that there was no tenancy agreement, the Supreme Court after reaffirming the law as pronounced in the G. F. Construction case said that equity compelled them that the appellant ought to pay for the use of the house from the time he occupied it up to the time he vacates it and the same to be assessed by the Deputy Registrar.
So, following the Titus Chinyonyi case and for the facts that the 2nd Defendant has continued occupying the house without lawful authority and without paying rent for slightly over 12 years from March 1999 when the house was sold to the Plaintiff and has unlawfully deprived the Plaintiff of the use of that house, I find it equitable to order that the 2nd Defendant must pay for the use of the house from 31st March 1999 until she vacates it. This award should be assessed by the Deputy Director of the Court Operations. I also grant the Plaintiff costs against the 2nd Defendant only. Such costs to be agreed upon or taxed in default of agreement.
I find no merit in the 2nd Defendant's counter claim and dismiss it.
I will now tackle the third issue. I find that the Plaintiff's right to continue occupying Flat No. 32 Club Street, ended when the Flat was sold to the 3rd Defendant. I therefore order that he should yield vacant possession of it to the 3rd Defendant within 30 days from the date hereof, failure to which the 3rd Defendant shall be at liberty to issue a writ of possession.
The 3rd Defendant's claim against Moffat Banda for mesne profits falls away as Moffat Banda is no longer a party to this action and has all along not been in occupation of the Flat.
I grant the 3rd Defendant's claim against ZCCM to execute all documents required to convey the said Flat to her although there is no evidence that the Company had refused to do so. I further find that the 3rd Defendant has no locus standi to make similar claims on behalf of owners of the other properties.
The Plaintiff's costs shall be borne by the 2nd Defendant for obvious reasons. The 3rd Defendant's costs shall be borne equally by the Plaintiff and 2nd Defendant as they are the ones who caused her to commence the action. The 1st Defendant's costs shall be borne by the 2nd Defendant as she is the one who caused the Plaintiff to institute an action against the Company. The costs should be agreed upon or taxed in default of agreement.
Delivered in open Court ……………..day of …………………….. 2011.

Mérida, Yucatan is a great place to visit, but what are the best options for getting there, or for moving on at the end of your visit?
Transportation options are continually changing, however following extensive research, we are pleased to present this directory of current air and ground options to and from Mérida.
Air Transport to and from Mérida´s Manuel Crescencio Rejón International Airport

Bus Transport to and from Mérida´s Various Bus Stations
Mérida has direct 1st Class bus services to many destinations in the region; travel to Mexico City and beyond is also available for anyone with the stamina to spend 24 hours or longer on a bus.
The main bus station is CAME, located on Calle 70 between 69 and 71. From here, Grupo ADO www.ado.com.mx - offers services to destinations including Cancun, Campeche, Villahermosa, Playa del Carmen, Chetumal, and all the way to Mexico City.
The Fiesta Americana station, on Calle 60 at Avenida Colon, offers ADO services to Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and direct services to Cancun Airport. Many of the buses from here also stop at the small terminal in Altabrisa.
Grupo ADO offers three types of service – ADO (1st class, comfortable air conditioned buses, with toilet, onboard movies (in Spanish) and reclining seats. ADO GL (1st class, comfortable air conditioned buses, slightly more space between rows, 2 toilets, and onboard movies with headphones for sound (handy if you DON'T want to be subjected to the movie soundtrack!) ADO PLATINO (Luxury, comfortable air conditioned buses, seats with deep recline which connect with footrests, plenty of space between rows, 2 toilets, individual entertainment screens featuring a menu of movies, music and other programming.)
The 2nd class bus station on Calle 69 between 68 and 70 offers services within the peninsula and to many smaller towns not served by ADO. The buses are stopping services, therefore much slower than the 1st class buses, and a seat is not guaranteed.
The Noreste station on Calle 67 between 50 and 52 also offers 2nd class services within the peninsula, primarily to destinations in the northeast of the state of Yucatán, such as Tizimín and the surrounding area. The buses are stopping services, therefore much slower than the 1st class buses, and a seat is not guaranteed.
Air Transport to and from Cancun International Airport
An alternative way to get to / from Mérida is to use the international airport in Cancun, and then take the ADO bus service either directly to/from the airport or via Cancun centro.
Cancun offers a vast choice of flights to many destinations across the USA, Canada, Central and South America and Europe.
Information presented here was correct at the time of publication, in August 2014.

There's something about leather bows that makes us go a little weak in the knees. The Coral Patent Leather Bow Bracelet ($20) by RARAMODO is a great object lesson. The rose red double-wrap bracelet is quirky enough to stand out, while the detachable bow can adorn either our wrists or (with a chain) our necks. How's that for gorgeous and versatile?

Despite her misgivings about the uses of sexuality, Mirren hasn't been reluctant to do nude scenes. Starting with 1969's Age of Consent and continuing through 1999's The Passion of Ayn Rand and 2003's The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone, she has had some very explicit moments onscreen. And in 1996 she did a nude cover for England's Radio Times magazine. "Well," she says of that photograph, smiling demurely, "it's not really naked. I was naked in that sort of covered-up way. Like this." And she shows me, legs crossed, leaning over, her arms coming down in a modest V over her chest.
In fulfilling her girlhood vow to be adventurous, Mirren explored the world, living in London, Stratford, Paris, Los Angeles and (briefly, with a boyfriend) on a kibbutz in Israel. In the early 1970s, she traveled with a troupe of actors assembled by visionary British director Peter Brook through Africa and the United States; on an Indian reservation in Minnesota, after drinking several brandies, she got a small tattoo — two interlocking V's — below her left thumb, of which she's very proud. Her wanderlust, she says, came from her British mother, who "always wanted to travel."
But she sees another side to her parents' generation, one that helped her understand the strong women she has consistently chosen to play. "They had a real sense of discipline and a willingness to sacrifice to create a better world," she says. "That was my delight and my pleasure in playing the queen. Elizabeth was the iconic figure for that generation and embraced those values — duty, selflessness — very deeply. That's why she could never understand Diana." What Mirren captures best in her acting is the terrible space between duty and personal impulse, the tension experienced by a powerful woman of whom superhuman strength and uprightness are required.
"The weird thing with Helen playing all these aristocratic, proper women is that she is the most anarchic person I've met," George says. "There's a wildness in there that's challenging and intimidating, and she relishes it. She has a razor-sharp intelligence that treats it all with a healthy disdain."
Mirren trains that intelligence on a wide variety of topics. She is a news junkie who knows what people are talking about, whether it's Pakistan's upheaval or the American primaries. And she's not shy about expressing her opinions. In accepting her Emmy award for Prime Suspect last September, she glancingly criticized the United States: "You Americans are wonderfully generous people; you are a lot of other things as well, some good, some bad…." Today, she explains what she meant. "I think Americans are a little parochial, a little naive," she says. "Naivete can be a good thing as well, all that innocence and idealism, not like those cynical Europeans: 'Oh, it'll never work!' But sometimes Americans show a terrible cruelty toward their own people, like what happened post-Katrina, you know, in the wealthiest country in the world. Which is extraordinary to me."
Mirren — who once said she likes to set her alarm for an hour before she has to get up, in order to spend some quality time in bed with Hackford — confesses she has her "Russian moments" of darkness and depression. "I don't mean super-depressed," she says, "but when the world looks horrible or it's boring, it doesn't grab you. We all go through that. I'm not permanently positive; I'm not some ghastly cheerful person.
"But you're still going to get pleasure out of a sunset and a tree and the light on a wall and a dog…and shopping."
There is one more thing Mirren wants to do before leaving the photo shoot. Well, two. She'd like to try on a dress she didn't wear during the session but has been thinking about the whole time, she tells me. It's a sleeveless, broad-collared, apple-green fitted gown, and she and the seamstress run upstairs with it. Ten minutes later, they return.
"I'm buying it," she says, holding it up. "Isn't it fabulous?"

This pressure helmet was made for Neil Armstrong for use during the Apollo 11 mission in July 1969.
The Apollo pressure helmet was a transparent bubble designed to attach to the spacesuit neck ring. It was constructed of a polycarbonate shell with a red anodized aluminum neck ring, a feed port, a vent pad and duct assembly attached to the rear and a valsalva device attached to the inner ring. The valsalva device was installed so that the astronaut could "blow" his nose to prevent his ears from "popping" during the rapid ascent of launch.
There were two configurations of these pressure bubbles used on Apollo suits which were not interchangable. The style used during the Apollo missions 7 through 10 was of anodized blue aluminum, while those used from Apollo 11 through the end of the program were of anodized red aluminum.
Transferred to the National Air and Space Museum from NASA in 1971.
