However, in practice the government has acted against critics (for example in 2008 two people were arrested for posting photos and articles online that were viewed as critical by the government), and ongoing sectarian and tribal violence results in a high degree of self-censorship.
We will look in some detail at some of the main issues affecting VPN use in Nigeria after we listed our selection of the best 5 VPNs for the country.

Hide My Ass
- Servers in South Africa, Egypt, India and Europ
- Great VPN client makes changing servers very easy
- Lots of other freebies on-site to help maintain anonymity on the internet
- 2 simultaneous connections
- UK company
- Keeps logs and has a history of collaboration with the authorities
- A bit pricey
HMA's slapdash attitude to privacy (and a history of handing over customer records to the authorities) means that we do not recommend HMA to users in Europe and North America. However, such privacy concerns are likely to be irrelevant to users in Nigeria, and the fact that HMA is a very large company with a global reach means that it can provide excellent VPN access to users in West Africa, with servers located relatively nearby in South Africa, Morocco and Egypt (plus of course India and Europe, which may be a preferable choice depending on how your provider connects to the rest of the world). HMA also has a quite funky VPN client with an internet kill switch, and allows you to connect two devices at once.
2nd place
IP Vanish
- Servers located in South Africa Egypt, India and Europe
- Good VPN client
- Great network speeds
- Claims to keep no logs undermined by its actions
- P2P: no
- Only one simultaneous connection
Again, IPVanish is a good choice for users in Nigeria thanks to its large international presence, with servers in 41 countries worldwide, including South Africa, Egypt, India and all over Europe. As with HMA, that fact that IPVanish threatened to disconnect our service after DMCA complaints is unlikely overly worry users in Nigeria, although if you wish to P2P download you should choose another service.
3rd place
- No logs
- 256-bit AES encryption
- Dynamic port forwarding
- Accepts Bitcoin
- Real-time user and server statistics
- Support for Tor over VPN and VPN through SSL and SSH tunnels
- Good speeds
- 3 day free trial
- P2P: yes
- No simultaneous connections (but extra can be purchased)
- Closest servers are in Europe
Going in completely the other direction, AirVPN is not particularly well set-up to serve users in West Africa, but it is a very secure service that really cares about your privacy. Its nearest servers are in Europe, but on the plus side it keeps no logs, uses shared IPs, accepts anonymous Bitcoin payments, uses 256-bit AES encryption, and supports exotic privacy protection technologies such as VPN over Tor, and VPN through SSL and SSH tunnels, and the beautifully presented real-time server information should at least make choosing the fastest server available easy. Although only one device can be connected at once by default, additional devices can be added for $1.99/mo each.
4th place
- Funky Android app
- No usage logs
- Great speeds
- 30 day money back guarantee
- Great iOS support
- Servers in Egypt and India
- No simultaneous connections
ExpressVPN hits something of a middle ground (maybe even a sweet spot?) for users in Nigeria, as they are pretty good on the privacy front (they keep no usage logs, although some connection and billing logs are kept), and they have servers in Egypt and India, as well as in Europe. In our tests they were fast, and with a generous 30 day money back guarantee they really are worth giving a spin. Unfortunately ExpressVPN does not allow more than one device to be connected at once.
5th place
- No logs
- Great attitude to privacy
- Very fast
- Accepts Bitcoin
- VPN client has some great features
- P2P: yes
- Android app
- Pre-configured routers available
- 3 simultaneous connections
- US company
- Closest servers are in Europe
Although in our view almost certainly compromised by the NSA, PIA remains one of the very best providers around, with a great VPN client featuring DNS leak protection, IPv6 leak protection, an internet kill switch, and on their newly buffed up Windows client (still in beta at time of writing), impressive level of security (up to an impressive 256-bit AES OpenVPN encryption, with SHA-256 hash authentication and 4096-bit RSA handshake encryption). PIA keeps no logs, uses shared IPs to make individual identification of users very hard, and accepts payment in Bitcoins, and allows up to three devices to be connected at once. The biggest problem with PIA for users in Nigeria is that its closest servers are in Europe.

Internet regulation efforts
The latest attempt to toughen up Nigeria's cyber-legislation came when a new bill (the eight since 2005) passed a second reading in The House of Representatives, the lower house of the Nigerian National Assembly, in November last year (2012), although no further action has yet been taken.
The bill is aimed not at restricting or monitoring the internet, but at providing a framework for tackling gangs who use the internet to commit various crimes, such as the notorious case in July 2012, when Cynthia Osokogu, an army general's daughter, was robbed, raped and killed after she was lured to Lagos by people she met on Facebook. Senate President David Mark called for a crackdown on social media sites, accusing them of being used by 'demean leaders'.
While nothing has yet come of these demands (Mark has a long history of pushing for cybercrime legislation), worry about Nigeria's commitment to internet freedom may be behind growing surge of interest in the use of VPN to protect internet users' privacy.
Some internet users in Nigeria have suspected the Economic and Financial Crimes (EFC) commission of monitoring cybercrime incidents, and a while an Open Internet Initiative report concluded this was not the case in 2005, a recent (January 2013) report by Toronto based human rights group Citizen Lab, asserts that US commercial surveillance and filtering software FinFisher (made by the shadowy Blue Coat Systems of Sunnyvale) has been deployed in Nigeria.
VPN for Nigeria
Whether or not FinFisher is being used to monitor internet use in Nigeria (a scary thought!), there are many reasons to use a VPN service.
Obviously VPN is very useful for protecting your data when connecting to a WiFi hotspot, as unencrypted data is highly vulnerable to malicious hacking. It is also useful for connecting to geo-restricted media services such as Hulu, Pandora and BBC iPayer.
More importantly, with Nigeria being a highly religious country (Christian, Islam and even 'Chrislamic'), and having strong social taboos (such as rampant homophobia), there are plenty of reasons why many would prefer to keep their internet use as private as possible.
Perhaps the biggest problem with using VPN in Nigeria is the fact that it is a long distance away from where most VPN servers are located, which introduces a lot of lag into a system that is already reported as being very slow. Fortunately, the connection of a number of high capacity submarine cables (Glo-1, Main One, WACS and SAT 3) to Nigeria over the last few years, to supplement the satellite systems already in place, is set to change this.

Position: Third Baseman
Height: 6-0
Weight: 215
Born: 6/14/1989
Bats: Both
Throws: Right
King was the Tigers fourth round pick last summer. He flew under the radar during the 2010 and 2011 seasons at Kansas State due to Tommy John surgery that forced him to redshirt in 2010. King was limited in the field in 2011 but did post a /.326/.377/.591 line in 61 games with the new BBCOR bats.
King signed quickly for just under $200,000 and made his professional debut with Connecticut in the short-season New York-Penn League. He saw action in 53 games for the CT-Tigers before a knee injury sidelined him for the remainder of the year.
In his time on the field, King hit .251/.341/.415 with 16 extra-base hits, 31 runs batted in, six steals and only 39 strikeouts versus 20 walks.
Scouting Report
King has baseball bloodlines with a father that played Division I ball and also saw one year of action in the Yankees organization. He hasn't been on the field much the last two years due to his aforementioned injuries, leaving him a little rusty and in need of game experience.
King is a high effort player that coaches fall in love with quickly. He runs hard on every ball in play, is an aggressive defender and works extremely hard between games.
A switch-hitter, King is more advanced from the left side. He sees the ball better out of the pitcher's hand, allowing him improved pitch recognition and a better overall approach during his at-bats. His swing plane from the left side is more consistent and powerful, giving him a solid offensive profile.
From the right side, King is less refined. He struggles with breaking balls as a right-handed hitter and is more of a gap-to-gap guy without the loft in his stroke to drive the ball out of the park.
Given that the vast majority of his at-bats will come as a left-handed hitter, King's overall offensive profile has an above-average ceiling with patience and average power. He doesn't have the most projectable hit tool and is likely to post a modest batting average, but it should be enough for the rest of his offensive tools to play.
King is more athletic than he looks at first glance. He's well built and very strong, but at times can look a little stiff in his movements; his upper body in particular. King has shown plus speed at times but that may begin to degrade with the knee injury suffered last summer. His instincts on the bases remain rough. If he can get better jumps he could steal 10-15 bases annually.
Despite being a solid athlete, King can get mechanical at third base. The movements required for the position don't appear natural to him and you can almost see him thinking every play through as he prepares to make it. He showed solid-average to plus arm strength last summer, a good sign just a year after surgery on his right elbow.
After scouting him extensively last summer, I'm not convinced King can stay at third base long term. He seems destined for an outfield corner in the coming years, an opinion many NYPL scouts shared.
Overall, King profiles as a potential fringe-average hitter with solid on-base skills, 15-20 home runs annually, and even a few steals. What position that comes from is still up in the air, but if it comes from an outfield corner, that gives him a bit of a tweener profile.
Performance Level Team AB AVG 2B HR RBI SO BB OBP% SLG% SS-A
Health Record
King missed all of 2010 after undergoing Tommy John surgery on his throwing (right) arm. After making his pro debut in 2011, King suffered a significant knee injury that required surgery and may put the start of his 2012 season in jeopardy. It's too early to call King injury prone, but he needs an extended run of health to completely shake the tag.
The Future
King's initial 2012 assignment will depend entirely on the health of his knee. If he is ready to play, the everyday third base job in West Michigan is his for the taking. If the knee injury lingers beyond spring training, King may not make his 2012 debut until closer to the summer, and could see some limited time back in short-season ball before moving on to West Michigan around mid-season.
If healthy, King has the offensive approach and work ethic to move quickly through the system. He could reach Double-A for a taste of advanced pitching before the end of the 2013 season, followed by a full trial at that level in 2014. From there, his performance will dictate his big league time table, with a possible 2015 arrival in Detroit.

A former UPEI Panthers forward is helping Edmonton Oilers prospects develop and chase their NHL dream.
Gerry Fleming is in his first full season as head coach of the American Hockey League's Bakersfield Condors. He has been with the Oilers AHL affiliate teams since 2008-09.
"It's been a great experience," he said recently. "I've been really blessed to have worked with some great people along the way."
The list of players who have made stops with the Condors or the Oklahoma City Barons, the Oilers affiliate before moving to California this season, includes Leon Draisaitl, Darnell Nurse, Brandon Davidson, Iiro Pakarinen, Jujhar Khaira and Anton Lander.
"To be given the opportunity to work with the young guys, and the importance of that role of developing guys for the NHL, it's an honour," Fleming said.
"To know you had some small part in helping them develop and get there, and hopefully stay there, it's always rewarding."
Charlottetown native Josh Currie signed a 25-game professional tryout contract with the Condors this season after starting the year in the ECHL.
Fleming grew up in Montreal and played three years with the Verdun Canadiens of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. After his junior career ended, Fleming had a decision to make about his future.
Asked how he ended up at UPEI, Fleming didn't hesitate.
"Vince Mulligan," he said of the Panthers hockey coach.
See Fleming's mother, who was from the Maritimes, worked the night shift and would get home at 7:30 a.m. Mulligan, a well-known recruiter, would call her on a regular basis in the morning. She would get Gerry up to talk to the "nice man" from Prince Edward Island.
"For about six weeks he was relentless," Fleming recalled. "I ended up going to the Island in the middle of August, which is probably one of the most beautiful times to go, and I fell in love with it. . . I was fortunate that Vince took interest in me."
Fleming played four seasons with the Panthers for Mulligan and Billy MacMillan from 1986-87 to 1990-91. He also played on the Allan Cup-winning Armour Fence Islanders team in 1990-91.
He went on to play for the AHL's Fredericton Canadiens from 1991-92 to 1997-98, earning call-ups for 11 NHL games with the Montreal Canadiens, before starting his coaching career.
Need to know about Gerry Fleming
Who - A Montreal native who played for the UPEI Panthers and Armour Fence Islanders.
The latest - He is coaching the Bakersfield Condors of the American Hockey League. Charlottetown native Josh Currie is a centre with the team.
Quote – "Gerry's attention to detail and ability to develop our young players made him a natural fit to return as head coach."

The Nike Air Max 1 is having a very strong 2010. From the highly sought-after Parra x Patta collab to the Air Attack Pack, we've seen AM1s in a huge range of colorways already. The latest to hit retail is among the tamest we've seen, relying only on a single accent color to liven up a mix of white and tonal greys. Because it's a nice bright orange shade, the sockliner is both balanced and demands attention, and you should be able to wear these with anything. It doesn't get much better than an iconic versatile look, and you can grab yours from steptorun on eBay.

The Walya Antelopes, who have won two of the three pre-Afcon friendly matches and drew one against Tunisia, head to South Africa on Wednesday
The Walya Antelopes dominated the game and created many chances but as always they lacked the finishing touch. Fuad Mohammed opened the scoring for the victors in the 13th minute before Tanzania leveled deep into the second half courtesy of dangerman Mrisho Ngassa. Ethiopia then grabbed the winner in the 69th minute through Shimeles Bekele.
Ethiopia started the game with only two players that were in the starting line-up in their match against Tunisia earlier this week - defenders Aynalem Hailu and Biadgelegn Elias - as Coach Sewnet Bishaw was using this build up to test his reserves.
The first yellow card came just 2 minutes in to the game when forward Fuad Ibrahim claimed he was fouled when trying to convert a Behailu Assefa cross. The referee, however, was differed in his opinion and booked him for diving.
Sewnet's attempt to utilize the wings through Yusuf Saleh and Behailu Assefa was fruitful as the two wingers were able to make runs break in to the Tanzanian defence on numerous occasions.
Behailu Assefa's low cross from the right found Fuad Ibrahim and the US-based striker made no mistakes in his finishing to give his side a 1-0 lead.
The rest of the first half was dominated by Ethiopia as Sweden-based Yusuf Saleh made two shots on goal, but couldn't get the ball past the Tanzanian keeper.
Coach Sewnet substituted three players at the break with star striker Saladin said coming in for Oumed Ukuri and another forward Adane Girma and midfielder Shimeles Bekele replacing Dawit Estifanos and Yared Zinabu.
Adane Girma was told to play as a defensive midfielder and he did not disappoint as he is no stranger to the position as he used to play there when playing for Awasa City and St. George.
The Taifa Stars, however, came more determined in the second half and started launching quick counter-attacks and trying to break the Ethiopian defence through long balls.
This move paid off as a brilliantly executed counter-attack, some sloppy defending and errors from 3rd choice keeper Zerihun Tadele contribute to their lone goal in the 51st minute. Ngassa clinically finished from inside the box to restore parity.
After the goal, Ethiopia tried to get back on the lead by introducing Dedebit's Striker Getaneh Kebede and winger Siyoum Tesfaye. But it was St. George's Shimeles Bekele's header in the 69th minute that restored their lead. The 23 year-old midfielder rose above everyone to get on the end of Yusuf Saleh's cross to give the lead back to Ethiopia.
Top Striker Saladin Said made four attempts on goal since coming in, but he couldn't find that finishing touch that he is too well known for. The Tanzanian keeper punched-out three of his efforts. Saladin dribbled past the keeper after receiving a through ball from Shimeles Bekele only to see his shot cleared off the line by a defender: it was just not his day.
Adane Girma and Siyoum Kebede made long range efforts in the closing minutes of the match. Adane narrowly missed the target and as for Siyoum, the keeper was able to punch the ball out; Tanzania have their keeper to thank for not conceding more goals.
The Walya Antelopes have now won two of the three pre-Afcon friendly matches and drew one against Tunisia. They will head to South Africa to take part in the competition on Wednesday after Sunday's send-off ceremony that will be held at the Millennium Hall.


text: The Ruined Innocence by Silentaria published on 2011-12-01T23:51:01Z Silentaria is an electronic new age musical project founded in 2010 by Rixa White, a self-taught pianist, keyboardist, composer and poet, known as "Man in White". Silentaria is inspired by the Wholeness and Emptiness philosophy. Its voice is an invitation to the inner world which is silent but the source of every sound. This manifests Silentaria's slogan: "The Voice of Emptiness". Silentaria music layered with progressive parts, effective vocals and proper sound effects creates gentle themes which take the listeners on a journey of self-actualization, inner thought and peaceful insight, while focusing on pure experience of life, beyond conceptual words and beliefs. It combines elements of Electronic, New Age, Progressive, Contemporary Instrumental and Ambient music. The Beginning of the End is the first sequel of a set of albums focusing on a journey to the inner world. All 11 tracks are conceptually related and named based on their roles in the album story line. However, each track can be listened, felt and enjoyed distinctly. "The Ruined Innocence" appears as a chorus music having soft beats, reversed background vocal and expressive melody in an electronic atmosphere combined with influential sound effects.

Tech Mahindra wins multi-million dollar BPO business in the Philippines, will also expand its footprint in Africa
Tech Mahindra, India's fifth largest software exporter has announced its plans to set up BPO operations in the Philippines. The company has recently signed a multi-million dollar deal, as one of the preferred BPO partners for strategic outsourcing with a leading full-service telecommunications company in the Philippines, according to a company release. The deal is spread over a period of three years. Tech Mahindra will provide the client with contact centre support for sales and back office, customer care and technical support for their wireless post-paid, landline and broadband customers. The end-customer mix will include both retail as well as high-end business customers of the client. Tech Mahindra has set up the contact centre at Manila to enable and deliver these services to the client and has already recruited over 600 associates locally. The past year saw Tech Mahindra opening centres in Nigeria, Zambia, Malawi, Ghana and Gabon, while Congo DRC and Congo B are expected to start operations within the next few months. According to Sujit Baksi, president-corporate affairs & BPO, Tech Mahindra, "The Philippines is not only a key market for us, but also a strategic location from where we plan to service our global clients. We look forward to strengthening our presence in Philippines through our engagement with one of the leading players in the Philippines telecom industry and will actively support our client's innovative plans to address the mobile telephony and broadband services market." At 15:59 hours, Tech Mahindra was trading Rs670.25 (2.5%) down on the BSE. The Sensex was 463.33 points down at 18,534.69 at this time.

The chairman of Kazakhstans BTA Bank expects to gain support from creditors in a crucial vote at the end of May to finally seal its debt restructuring.
This would be the last step in a push by the countrys banks to move on from a deep financial crisis which has paralysed the sector since mid-2007.
Anvar Saidenov, chairman of the management board of BTA Bank, which was bailed out by sovereign wealth fund Samruk-Kazyna last year, told Emerging Markets there was no 100% guarantee of approval, but he was confident the restructuring plan would be passed on May 28 by the two-thirds of creditors needed, marking the last of Kazakhstans bank restructurings.
But a full recovery of the sector will also entail a big revamp of lenders business strategy if a second crisis is to be avoided in the coming years, analysts and ratings agencies warned.
Andrey Markov, from Renaissance Capital, said banks have to dissociate themselves from the real estate sector and move away from a wholesale funding model to a deposit-based one. But he added that the only sector where loans had grown in the last year was in real estate.
There are few other sectors to lend to, as oil and gas and metals and mining companies can fund themselves internationally at cheap rates, he said, adding that in several years we could be faced with the same picture.
Standard & Poors also highlighted recently that a new funding model was key to the recovery of Kazakhstans banking system, which is still being plagued by non-performing loans. Saidenov insisted the bank would implement a new business plan that would see it make a push to gain retail deposits and lend to small- and medium-sized enterprises.
Saidenov added that BTA would focus on the domestic market rather than on expanding in the CIS and lending to offshore clients.
He said the bank wanted be to take part in government programmes, adding that the state would be a main sources of funds. Other initiatives, such as the creation of a special account to gather payments to trade finance creditors, which could then be used by BTA as a revolving trade finance facility, would also allow the bank to remain engaged with this segment of lending. The facility would amount of $700 million, Saidenov said.
He added he was realistic about international borrowing opportunities following the restructuring, and that this was not a priority. However, other Kazakh banks, including Kazkommertsbank, Halyk Bank, Nurbank, and even Alliance Bank, which completed its own restructuring last year, are already understood to be eyeing the markets.
BTAs restructuring, begun over a year ago, will reduce BTAs debt burden to just under $5 billion, from $11 billion. It has already been approved by the restructuring steering committee, which account for about 40% of the debt, and should be easily passed, bank and institutional lenders involved told Emerging Markets.

Beauty and prep time wise I'm a pretty laid back au natural kind of person. But I do require just a touch of hair spray to maintain my do the way I want it. I've tried several brands and types of products but in all I always tend to go back to the one I started with almost 20 years ago Aussie Sprunch Spray. My hair is pretty simple but what would be the "bangs" area I like to have a swoosh back type look which keeps it out of my face during the day. Other brands fall short and literally my hair is falling within a few hours. When I use Aussie Sprunch Spray almost always my hair stays where it should. Now you would think my saying that would mean that it makes hair stiff. That is not the case with Aussie. For some reason I get a good hold, yet I never feel the spray in my hair. I do have to say that with my latest purchase this last month my Aussie does not quite hold as well as it used to but it still works great for me.I laughed when I read the summary for this product stating that reviewers liked the "purple" smell of the product. The next time I used it, sure enough the smell was purple. How do you smell purple? I have no idea but that's the best word I can use to describe it. To be a little more descriptive, it has a sweet, fruity smell that is also mixed with a little bit of flowery. Enjoy the scent and it doesn't really linger or smell chemically at all. I buy Aussie Sprunch Spray in a pump bottle (which does sometimes get gummed up). It seems to me that over the years, the bottle size has shrunk yet the price has stayed the same, or increased, which is disappointing for my budget. Luckily I only need to buy a bottle of it once every year or so since I don't use very much.

Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
I purchased this because I thought I can use it on the days that I'm too lazy to do my hair or I just don't have anytime to spend on my hair because of certain circumstances. Well I don't really like it. It may be because it just doesn't work right or it may be because of my hair type. I have shoulder length hair right now. It's wavy so I thought this might make it look cute and make the waves spring up but they don't. Instead my hair looked worse and I wasted more time trying the sprunch look. It made my hair feel crunchy and hard too. I don't like that because I hate the hard wet look in my hair. It's ugly and it just makes the hair heavy. I was thinking about giving it to my sister since she has curly hair. I thought it would probably work better on her. I didn't give it to her though because I figured it worked good to use as a regular hairspray plus I am going to give it another chance when my hair grows longer. Maybe once my layers grow out, it might work differently.
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
Aussie makes a great product when it comes to this spray. I use this when I want to wear my hair with the natural curls I was given and it makes my hair look great. I can simply spray it on my hair right out of the shower and let it dry naturally. It keeps my curls from looking frizzy and my hair has a wet look. It doesn't look like I just got out of the shower, but it looks naturally wet. The scent is one of a kind. It has a grape type smell that is addicting. I love the way my hair smells when I use this product or any Aussie product.
This spray doesn't make your hair feel very hard, I can still run my fingers through my hair and it doesn't feel weighed down or heavy. I have been using this product for many years and I will continue to use it in the future. This is reasonably priced and works better than the salon expensive brands. Aussie makes a quality product and will be something I will buy for years to come.
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
Do you know what sprunching is? Sprunch is when you create curls in your hair by applying product and then taking your hair into fistfuls. The result-beachy, messy, loose waves.
Now, Aussie Sprunch Spray does work. I have stick-straight hair and using Aussie Sprunch Spray will give my hair the "sprunched" look. It also does last for hours-I can do my hair at 9 am and the style lasts well into the night.
The problems-to get the sprunch look I need to use way too much product. If your hair is past shoulder-length, you will need to use half the bottle.
-It leaves my hair feeling too stiff. If you touch my hair after using this, it will crunch.
-The smell. I don't particularly hate the "Aussie product" scent but it is very strong and you can smell it all day after using it.
I've ended up switching to a loose curling iron. The waves aren't the same but I'm saving money because I'm not buying three bottles of this a week and I'm not smelling it all day.
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
My hair is naturally a little bit wavy, and I find that this product works best for me if I take a shower, towel dry my hair and get the excess moisture out of my hair, and then apply this. It isn't too thick or heavy, and it doesn't make my hair crunchy. If you use too much of this, of course it will get to be excessive. A fair amount of this is good.
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
I don't know why I don't use this anymore, I used to use Aussie Sprunch Spray and the Aussie Instant Freeze Gel, it was my favorite hair product combination. First off let's start off with the scent, it literally smells like candy in a bottle. I could spray this all over my hair and never get tired of the scent. I love how well this holds my curls, I'm one who lovees playing with my curls and usually they kinda lose the shape and get a little frizzy but with this it's like a mega hold spray. Everyone with curly hair needs to give this a try because it really does a great job. When I finish all my hair products I'm currently using I will definitely be repurchasing this spray. It's kind of like a holy grail product, i wish I knew why I stopped using this because its just that good, and with the instant freeze gel your hair will not go anywhere, that I can promise you. The only thing is if you don't like that crunchy feel with your hair I wouldn't use both the products.
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
I have been using Aussie products for a few years now. They seem to work very well for me. I'm not one that has an easy time styling my own hair but Aussie products help a great deal! I start out with Aussie volumizing spray and finish off with Aussie scrunch spray. When I leave the house in the morning I look like I've been to the salon. What a difference it makes when you're working with hair products that do all the work for you. I'm completely satisfied with Aussie Scrunch spray & would recommend it to all.
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
I use the spray gel and I love the smell. My hair is very frizzy, but Aussie products work to keep the friz out. I am very happy with them. I have long hair, and rarely ever cut it so it takes a few bottles a week to keep it defrizzed. All in all, Aussie is the way to go!
Comments about Aussie Sprunch Spray Strong Hold Pump:
This product is very good for really putting curls in hair that isn't full of curls. My hair is naturally curly but is long so it tends to pull curl out. This product really holds and holds for a long time. The only drawback I have is it tends to almost make hair to stiff. Now when we are in times of natural look, I don't like that fact.

What are the measles?
The measles are an infection of the respiratory system because of a virus. The symptoms of this disease include fever, cough, runny nose, and a skin rash. Measles are highly contagious, if you aren't immune and you are sharing a living space with a person who's contracted the disease, there's a 90% chance that you will catch them. They are spread through respiration.
Alternatively, laboratory diagnosis of measles can be done with confirmation of positive measles antibodies or isolation of measles virus RNA from respiratory specimens. In patients where this is not possible, saliva can be collected for salivary measles-specific testing. There is no specific treatment for the measles. Most people effected by the disease will recover with rest and supportive treatment. Antibiotics could be used for any sicknesses the disease may cause. Acute measles encephalitis has a mortality rate of 15%. In some cases, where things such as bronchitis occur, about 1 in 100,000 cases is fatal. Measles are the most deadly of all childhood rash/fever illnesses. The disease spreads very easily, so it's important to protect against it. Getting vaccinated is the best way to prevent measles.

Connectors tie, link, and hold networks together
Network connectors have several tough jobs. They must make positive connections to transmit data; keep out unfriendly substances; withstand their environments for long periods, and often hold cables together under mechanical stress.
This article is an expanded version of the Back to Basics in the November 2002 Control Engineering. Click here to return to the original article .
Network connectors have several tough jobs. They must make positive connections to transmit data; keep out unfriendly substances; withstand their environments for long periods, and often hold cables together under mechanical stress. And, as network data rates continue to increase from 9,600 bps to 12 Mbps and beyond, connectors are also being required to shield conducting pins and sleeves from electrical noise and interference.
network connectors
Selecting and implementing the most appropriate connectors depends on addressing physical requirements, application needs, layout and topology, and even philosophies governing different networking protocols. All connectors must satisfy the basic physical layer and cabling needs of their networks, but these different philosophies have resulted in different specific requirements for them.
For example, DeviceNet and the Open DeviceNet Vendors Assocation (Boca Raton, FL) define the thickness of the gold plating on the contacts on its connectors; Profibus-DP and the Profibus Trade Organization (Scottsdale, AZ) recognize many connectors, but not some others; and FOUNDATION fieldbus and the Fieldbus Foundation (Austin, TX) rests on the ISA SP-50.03 specification, which defines physical layer attenuation impedance in its cabling, but doesn't specify its connectors.
Because some protocol organizations define connectors and others don't mention them, users are often forced to seek out de facto market standards. So, it's usually still up to individual users to determine the connectors their network needs (see sidebar). For example, the biggest type of connector used in semiconductor manufacturing is the 7/8-in mini, which is considered small by users in the process field. Process applications often use M12 micro connectors on DeviceNet, Profibus, AS-i and SDS networks.
Evolving industrial technologies and trends also influence network cabling and connector requirements. For instance, the process field has long relied on screw terminations, and hasn't traditionally used many network connectors found in other applications. However, many process users are starting to use 7/8-in. mini connectors at 9 amps at with three, four or five pins, as well as M12 micro connectors with at 4 amps with four, five or eight pins.
Secure plug-in and snap-on versions of many traditional threaded connectors, as well as adapters, are also increasingly prevalent in many applications. Ironically, users are finding that newer connecting methods aren't just physically quicker to install, but they're also justified by the reduced time needed to schedule electricians or other technicians needed to install them. Meanwhile, in discrete industries and applications, M12 connectors are traditional because of the strict requirements of I/O points and devices. Mini connectors are used to supply power, which has been fueled by recent growth in PLC and related networks.
Taking care
The reason users need to be careful their connectors have the right thickness of gold plating on their contacts is because networks need low contact resistance when going through each connection. You generally want that contact resistance to be less then 5 milliohms (mV) over the life of those contacts. This is why some traditional connectors don't work as well.
Low contact resistance is so important because, if you're comparing point-to-point on a DeviceNet network with 64 nodes, then your last device's signal could potentially have to go through 128 connections before returning. High contact resistance could spell real trouble for a bus system like this.
Current carrying capacity is usually not a big deal because industrial networks don't tend to draw much power. For example, FOUNDATION fieldbus typically draws about 20 milliamps (mA), while a mini connector can handle 9 amps. Likewise, DeviceNet is designed to handle 4 amps. It's also crucial to implement quality connectors because they're also subject to the same heat, vibration, abrasives and corrosives as the rest of the network. Good quality connectors mean their networks won't experience the drifts in voltage that occur in systems with connections that worsen more quickly over time.
Beyond these basic requirements, choosing connectors is also a matter of individual applications needs and personal taste. Technicians installing a network overhead with gloves will want bigger connectors they hold onto, while a system in a small panel will want smaller connectors. With the emergence of Ethernet, RJ-45 connectors have grown more prominent in industrial networks, and efforts have been made to help them survive and serve in plant-floor applications. RJ-45 can be industrially hardened, but its 1-in diameter and straight connections are still more subject to vibration and other forces in manufacturing applications. M12 is 0.5-in in diameter and has better contacts.
Thinking through
Because most engineers and other users like to have an accessible Plan B for handling unexpected network requirements, they often try to leave a couple of ports available when thinking through their network's connector schemes. These extra ports can accommodate adding an unanticipated device, or help provide a secondary node or input on the bus for an especially sensitive process. Planning up front can make many tasks easier down the road. Users often need to replace connectors in about the same time it takes for a coffee break.
The best advice is to choose connectors that serve your application's basic needs, but will also be able to handle previously unforeseen requirements.

Sometimes, sports and money can combine to make for strange bed fellows. Consider that the Eagles are allowing Drew Rosenhaus, the agent for deposed wide receiver Terrell Owens, to negotiate a deal that would facilitate a trade between the Eagles and another team to get Owens out of Philadelphia. Rosenhaus and the Eagles were like oil and water this past season and many blamed Rosenhaus for many of the problems between Owens and the team.
Actually, this is a situation that makes perfect sense. If the Eagles were to simply cut Owens, they would get nothing in return. As a free agent, it's not clear what Owens would be able to get in terms of a contract with another club, especially if there weren't too many clubs fighting to sign him. Rest assured though that teams would look to get him for a cheap signing bonus, low base salary and offer incentives to make up the majority of the money that Owens might receive. In the trade scenario, Rosenhaus could still find out which teams are interested in his client and could renegotiate Owens' deal, hoping to get a better offer from a club. Plus, if there are multiple teams interested, Owens could still have a hand in deciding where he'll play next season, just as he would being a free agent.
The idea of Rosenhaus being successful isn't far fetched. He negotiated deals to get clients Clinton Portis and Reuben Droughns out of Denver and into better situations for themselves with Washington and Cleveland, respectively. Plus, he has his reputation, which took a hit during the Owens debacle, to think about. If Rosenhaus can come out of this getting a decent deal for Owens in a city where he would want to play and get the Eagles something when they expected to get nothing, some of Rosenhaus' pride and reputation may be salvaged. After all, the Eagles initially planned on dumping Owens before March 1st, which is the official start of "next season" for the NFL.
Even though Owens seemingly has now worn out his welcome in both San Francisco and Philadelphia, there are reportedly other teams interested in talking with Rosenhaus about either a trade or free agent deal for Owens. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers could team Owens with Joey Galloway to give them a potent corps of receivers. The Jets could also use Owens to help improve their passing attack. Both Tampa Bay and New York were hurt by injuries to their quarterbacks this past season, but with healthy quarterbacks and by adding Owens to the mix, either club would take a giant leap forward in their passing attack.
Tampa Bay would be interesting considering that Jon Gruden went through the Keyshawn Johnson debacle. You would think that he would be having horrible flashbacks to those days, but reports out of Tampa Bay are that Gruden is somewhat infatuated with Owens and that his theory is full-steam ahead to work out a deal. New York also knows the Keyshawn situation, but they're reportedly in, too. Don't lose sight of the fact that the Jets top receiver was Laveranues Coles, who caught 73 passes for the Jets, worth 845 yards and five touchdowns. Owens led the Eagles with 763 yards and six touchdown catches in just seven games. Granted, again, the Jets were without Chad Pennington, but you still have to take note of what Owens might mean to the Jets.
There actually are a number of twists and turns to this situation. Originally, the problems started when T.O. wanted to renegotiate his contract, feeling that he was underpaid. Now, finding a team that would honor his remaining deal might prove difficult, but it certainly would be sweet irony to see Owens playing for the exact terms that he deemed unfit to play for this season. The truth is that Owens may have to take even less just to reprove himself not as a player, but as a clubhouse member. He says he's learned his lesson and just wants to get back on the field and play somewhere that he'll be appreciated. The Eagles would probably appreciate any team that would give them something for him.
While this is all very interesting, trades can't be consummated until March 3rd and T.O.'s roster bonus is set to be paid a week after that. In other words, don't sit by your computer watching transactions columns to see what happens. This is going to take some time. Keep in mind too, that the Eagles tried this approach a few years ago with Jeremiah Trotter and supposedly, there were absolutely no offers for him. Soon after he was released, he signed a big money deal with the Redskins, only to be cut after two years and come back to the Eagles. After all, if a team is interested in signing Owens, why give up a player and/or a draft pick to get him when everybody knows that he's going to be a free agent.
The whole "work out your own trade" idea is a good one, but don't think for a minute that Rosenhaus won't benefit. If the Eagles were to hang onto Owens until March and then cut him loose, Rosenhaus would have to wait until then to negotiate with teams. This way, he gets a head start on who may be interested and don't think for a minute that some other club will offer Rosenhaus details of the type of deal they would give Owens if they have to trade for him and a better deal that they would give him if they don't have to send something back to the Eagles. If the Jets, Bucs or some other team believe that they can get at T.O. better now than they could by waiting for him to become a free agent, then they may be moved to offer up something. Otherwise, there would be no reason to jump into the fire and give up more than they would have to if they feel they've got a good shot at Owens in free agency.

Title: Two Doves Jigsaw Puzzle
About: In this fun new puzzle we feature two doves sitting next to each other on a wooden post. As well as food and pets, domesticated pigeons are used as homing pigeons. These kind of birds were in the past also used as carrier pigeons, and so-called war pigeons have played significant roles during wartime. Some of them even received bravery awards and medals for flying important messages to their destination even when they got hurt by enemy bullets.

My wife and I were among more than 200 frustrated attendees at the March 19 Florham Park Council meeting, held to hear public input prior to the vote on the ordinance to control the future development of the Exxon property.
Before we were frustrated, we were pleased and proud to be citizens of Madison, to hear our Borough Attorney and Planner present concerns on behalf of the Madison Borough Council.
Before we became infuriated, we were pleased and proud to be members of Madison Matters, who presented cogent arguments relating to problems in the ordinance, and whose Planner also presented relevant concerns to the Mayor and Council of Florham Park.
Before we realized that we were participants in a "staged farce," we were pleased to see the participation and hear the concerns of our neighbors from Chatham, Chatham Township, Harding and Morristown.
Before we were "scuttled" by the Florham Park Council, we were encouraged by the comments of Ridgedale Avenue and other neighbors, warning again of the effects of the ordinance on traffic, water and environmental concerns on which our quality of life in Madison depends.
We listened to all these presentations, and heard what was said. Unfortunately, as we all know now, the Florham Park Mayor and Council neither listened nor heard. Mayor Barbara Doyle even proudly stated, "We have heard nothing new tonight." Of course, if one doesn't listen, one doesn't hear. And then came the "steamroller vote," with no discussion, no concerns, an instant unanimous vote of the Mayor and Council.
Left high and dry, what are the citizens of Madison and surrounding communities to do?
While we are not without possible courses of action ourselves, as citizens we look to our elected officials again for help. So it is with faith in our Madison Mayor and Council that we look to them to mount some formal appeal, via legal or political avenues, hopefully in concert with governing bodies of the surrounding towns, to help protect our communities from the clearly harmful effects of the ordinance as written. For our part, we will work with them and in parallel efforts to achieve the same ends.
