Click HERE for the audio: Michigan Public Radio article on the DSO facebook page…
Social media is an "invitation to involvement"
Cornelia Pokryzwa is a long time fan and patron of the orchestra. She thinks the strike discussions on the DSO facebook fan page are valuable. She likes that all kinds of people are participating in the discussion - from musicians and DSO season ticket holders to people who've never even seen a DSO performance. But Pokryzwa thinks management could do more to interact with the people who post on the fan page:
"Social media is an invitation to involvement, and so once people are involved enough to comment, then it seems that the strategy should be to engage them and not just host a discussion board. There are a lot of angry people on there and I think they need to do something…to get their fans back."
Expert: "You cannot negotiate a labor agreement on the social media."
Christie Nordhielm, a marketing professor at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, says "you cannot negotiate a labor agreement on the social media. It doesn't work." She calls it a "poor use of social media as a tool."
Nordhielm believes the DSO's image will be hurt by the fight on facebook, but the question is for how long. Her advice for the DSO management?
"First: Shut up. Just stop. And then second: Wait quietly until people forget."
She says lucky for the DSO, the public has a short attention span. The question is: will the musicians?

Junior guard Cullen Neal Albuquerque, N.M./Eldorado H.S.) gave St. Mary's a verbal commitment on Monday night, The Albuquerque Journal is reporting.
The 6-foot-4 son of New Mexico assistant Craig Neal chose the Gaels over offers from Arizona State, Oregon State, Tulane, San Francisco and San Diego.
"They're a top-20 program, they went to the Sweet 16 two years ago, and I'm gonna play right away, and playing right away was a big deal for me," Neal told the paper.
Neal is averaging 27.4 points per game for Eldorado this season. He is the first recruit for St. Mary's from the 2013 class.

Michigan has some places to visit in the summertime. The great thing about these places is that they are family oriented places. You must visit.
|summer camps in Michigan
One of the places that I really like is Camp Copeneconic in Fenton, Michigan.
Here you will find various activities for the family. Day Camps or overnight Camps are available. Be prepared for a lot of walking and above all wear comfortable shoes. Since Michigan weather is quite changeable you might want to wear boots if it has been raining on previous days. In fact there were snow flakes earlier during this month of May. Cold and adverse weather usually does not last though; before you know it the sun is shining again. Some of the camps may include SuperHero Camp, Mother and Daughter Ranch Camp.
Some of the other activities may include basketball, zip lining, archery, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and GaGa( a sort of dodgeball where the children form a circle and attempt to eliminate each other by rolling the ball rather than throwing the ball at another. This game is played in an Octagonal Pit. They have this game set up outdoors and indoors in the event of rain. They continue this until there is only one player left standing. I went Kayaking for the first time at Camp Copneconic. At first I thought I would not like it and that it would be difficult, but I discovered it was so much fun. Many of the children were excellent shots with archery.
|Camp Copeneconic
The classic Day camps have a new theme weekly. This Camp can accommodate up to 450 people and they do provide meals as well. You will see on their family page the motto "The Family that plays together, stays together." I like that.
Besides great Chicken that Frankenmuth is known for they have a great Zehnder's Splash Village Hotel and Water Resort. One of the the great things I like about the Water Resort is that the water is warm, 82 degrees) as oppose to cold water. This makes it more inviting. The park schedule for half days are $35.00 per person from 10 am-3pm or 3 pm-8 pm. Full day passes are $42.00 per person. They also offer package deals for families and/or birthday parties. Their birthday parties include Pizza, soft drinks, 20 Arcade Credits per person, and even more. I was amazed to see young and old at this water park. If you have not been to any of these amazing places. They are places that you must see.

I ordered the Slumber Solutions Highloft Eco 3-inch Memory Foam Mattress Topper and It arrived as promised. No smell and I was able to use it right after a short airing out. Comfortable..slept well.Read More
This is the best foam topper I've ever used -- it's fantastic.Read More
Item was not as described. Egg-crate & tallest spike was barely 3 inches, I returned.Read More
I could not tell from the picture that was posted that this foam is an egg crate design. I was looking for a solid 3" foam. When I received it and unwrapped it, I was disappointed because the 3" measurement is from the highest peak and leaving only a 1 " solid bottom. Not much support overall. Obviously, I can not return it since it would not fit back in the box.Read More
We turned the flat side of the topper up, so it would be smooth. Topper made a big difference in the comfort level of an average guest room spring mattress. We are used to sleeping on gel memory foam combo mattress at home, so any spring mattress is torture. This made our daughter's guest bed comfortable for a few nights. So glad I bought it and had it sent directly there. No strange smell at all.Read More
I love this memory foam topper - it is like sinking into a cloud. I was having minor back aches after sleeping on my mattress and hoped this would cure then as other reviews said. It did. When I opened the package, I doubted it would ever straighten out and take the shape it should. It did in less than 24 hours and the one I got did not have any smell fortunately. So glad I got it!Read More
I love the warmth and comfort of this mattress. It keeps its memory and is super comfortable. It only took about 12 hours to fluff out to the full size rather than the 24 which was recommended. I love it!!!Read More
This is an excellent addition to any bed. It makes a bad mattress good and a good mattress better. For those of you who complained that there were no instructions on which side faces up, it is advertised as reversible, so you get to choose! Incredible comfort for a great price.Read More
...if you count the peaks of the egg crate pattern. The topper arrived promptly and in good condition. When we opened the saran wrap that it is shipped in, it pretty quickly assumed its normal size and shape. While you can tell that the foam that is there is of a high quality (and density) there isn't quite as much of it as I'd expected. About half of the 3 inch thickness is taken up with egg crate pattern, leaving only about an inch and a half of solid foam. This being said, my parents (for whom it was a Xmas gift) have had no complaints, so I guess there's no harm done.Read More
We decided to go with memory foam when we replaced our down feather top. Memory foam is pretty nice. It feels as squishy and comfortable as the feather top - but the memory foam doesn't have to be "redistributed" like the down in the feather top had to at least every month (the feather top would obviously get less squishy under where we slept and stayed squishy between us whereas the memory foam stays squishy everywhere without "assistance"). We would buy the memory foam again.Read More
This is proving to be a resilient, comfortable addition to my sleeping arrangements that helps me go to sleep faster and more soundly. I have the flat side up, under a mattress pad and it adds just enough softness for the pointy-parts of my hips to settle in more comfortably for a good nights rest.Read More
I do not recommend this product. There is little to no support in this mattress topper. I've been sleeping on this for a few weeks now and my back is killing me. I'm taking this off my bed and either donating it to Goodwill or cutting it into smaller sizes and making dog beds out of it. Don't waste your money on this product....spend a little more and get a quality mattress topper.Read More
My husband and I have never had Memory foam before. We really have enjoyed it. I have back issues and have noticed since purchasing this product that I do not wake up with the back pain I used to have. Also, myhusband and I have different sleep patterns. I go to bed earlier than him, and wake up earlier than him. With the Memory foam mattress topper, we sleep more soundly, because we are not disturgin each other with the movement of the bed. I also like that it is eco-friendly and the price was budget friendly. I know others had complained of the odor as it first came and was unwrapped. For my husband and I, we left it out overnight and put it on the bed the next night and had no odor. Overall, we are very pleased with this product and look forward to many more restful nights of sleep.Read More
This made a huge difference in the comfort of our mattress. It is heavy and arrives tightly wound. It expands within an hour or so of unwrapping the plastic wrap. There was a slight odor. I am very sensitive to smells and it didn't bother me much. I have price shopped these elsewhere and Overstock had the best price.Read More
bought it for my g.f and she loves it. good deal for the $, I bought it for $xxxx shipped for a Cal King.Read More
This product is an excellent buy. I used to wonder about the value of mattress toppers and now fully understand why there is a need to purchase one. I slept well before I put the Slumber Solutions on my bed, but now sleep more effeciently.Read More
This product did not come with a cover which was kind of disappointing. Also I was expecting a solid 3-inch slab and the item is "egg crate" style. No instructions on whether you should put solid side up or the "egg crate" up.Read More
I've been pleased with this topper. It's the only one I've tried so I have no basis for comparison, but I like it and have had no problems. I let it air out for a couple of days before putting it on the bed, so odor was never an issue. I was concerned about it making me feel too warm, but I haven't noticed any difference in terms of temperature. The quality is good, it's very comfortable and I'm glad I got it!Read More
Exactly what we were looking for. Pregnancy was making my back hurt, but the mattress topper made sleeping on my side so much easier. Very cushy. Does seem to make us a bit warmer at night, but not very much.Read More

Hi there,
I need help to resolve my issue with the SmartLive Casino. I had won 11500 on 03/11/2014 and requested a withdrawal on the same day. I recieved 2000 pounds on 11/11/2014.
I phoned/emailed/live chat them and asked about the remaining 9500 pounds. They said to me that they would pay me in weekly instalments but they are refusing to say the specific dates for it.
Thats their email
Today at 12:22 PM
Dear Abdul,
Thank you for your email.
I can confirm from our financial department that payments will be made on a weekly basis and unfortunately there are no specific set dates.
As earlier stated, large withdrawals tend to experience some delay but I can however assure you that all monies are paid out. I apologize once again for the inconveniences caused. Thank you for your patience while your query is resolved.
Best Regards,
Smart Live Casino.
They have been ignoring me and not helping at all.
I don't understand why they are delaying it for no reaseon and where did this instalment process came from?
it says in their terms and conditions "5.9 You may withdraw your money at any time. Money withdrawn will always be returned to the source of the funds where possible. All withdrawals must be completed within 3-5 working days from the date requested. In case The Companies have requested any form of documentation from the customer, the withdrawal period starts from the date the customer has sent all the requested documents,"
There is not written that winnings would be paid in Instalmens. I want my money altogether and not in weeks.
I want you to help me in this matter so that I should get my winnings.
Abdul Rahman
Hi there,
Dear @rabdul10,
Any update considering your complaint? Thank you.
Hi there,
I recieved a call from Smart Live Casino on 14/11/2014, He said that All the remaining amount (9500) would be cleared by 20/11/2014. I am not sure how thay would do that at once because they paid only 2000 on 11/11/2014 and then disappeared.
Abdul Rahman
We have now resolved this issue with the customer. We explained that it was delayed because he requested a large withdrawal and we needed to carry out additional security checks according to company policy.
If you require any further information on this matter, please get in contact with us.
Smart Live Casino
Dear AskGamblers,
I recieved another 2000 on 19th November 2014. The Customer Service Manager " Benjamen Bedford" foned me and told me that the remaining 7500 would be paid to me on the 25th November 2014. I hope they would pay me this time the full amount.
I also recieved an email i.e.
Dear Abdul.
Thank you for playing with SmartLive Casino.
Firstly we would like to apologise for any issues you have experienced in our Casino. We appreciate every frustration and have taken this on board.
Our main reason for this email is to assure you that all your funds that are pending with us, will be processed by Tuesday the 25/11/2014. Please bear with how long it has taken for your withdrawal to be processed as this is only a one off occasion and this will never happen again.
To prove our honesty, we will make all your payments by the date given above and if you do play, win and the request a withdrawal again, I can confirm that it will not take as long as this initial request. From now on your withdrawal will be sent within 3 to 5 working days.

Agenda at a Glance:
Track 1: Leadership Development
Session 1: Establishing Your Crediblity Up and Down the
When you establish your credibility with an employee in those all-important
first few seconds, you set the tone for that working relationship. In this
crucial session, you'll discover proven techniques for projecting confidence,
credibility, and authority whenever you speak – starting with your first words
to a new employee or CEO. In addition, you'll find out how to recognize and
eliminate certain speech mannerisms and behaviors that may make others take you
less seriously or treat you with less respect than you deserve.
Session 2: How to be Assertive Without Being Pushy
Your ability to interact confidently and assertively with people up and down
the ladder is critical to your career success. In this session, we'll
demonstrate the basic how-to's of assertive behavior and show you how to act
assertively in a variety of workplace situations – without coming across as
pushy, overbearing, or aggressive. You'll also learn powerful tips for getting
heard in meetings and for saying "no" without feeling guilty. Don't miss this
opportunity to learn how to stop holding back and start speaking up!
Session 3: How to Talk So Others Will Listen
Research shows that on average, people in face-to-face discussions absorb only
about 30 percent of what is said. In other words, your employees hear less than
a third of what you tell them directly! In this session, we'll share
easy-to-learn techniques for sharpening your interpersonal communication skills
so that you will give crystal clear instructions and feedback. You'll also find
out how to read nonverbal cues and body language so you can see if employees
are really listening to what you're saying – and understanding it.
Session 4: Dealing With Conflict Confidently and
Do you feel uneasy when conflict rears its ugly head? Many women in leadership
positions do! In this session, you'll learn how to face confrontation head-on –
calmly, confidently, and professionally. You'll also find out how to prevent
and handle conflict ranging from co-worker squabbles to violence. We'll show
you how to focus on the positive aspects of conflict so that you can use it to
build stronger teams and boost morale. Become an effective peacemaker and say
good-bye to the anxiety that can accompany harsh words!
Track 2: The Complete Leader
Session 1: Choosing the RIght Leadership Style for the Job
Developing the right leadership strategy for the people you lead is absolutely
crucial to your professional success. In this session, you'll learn not only
how to recognize your natural leadership style, but how to determine if this
style meets the needs of your employees. You'll gain strategies for adapting
your style so that you can better influence, motivate, communicate, and coach
your people. Discover the important distinction between being a leader and
being the boss, and find out what employees really want from leaders!
Session 2: The Ultimate Challenge: Leading Through Change
In today's fast-paced, high-tech work environment, change is inevitable,
whether due to a merger, downsizing, restructuring, expansion, new management,
or other situations. In this session, you'll learn the keys to overcoming
employee resistance to change, as well as how to implement changes that
employees will embrace. You'll also find out the real reasons why
organizational changes often don't work and how to combat these factors. Change
can strengthen you as a leader – if you know how to make it work for you!
Session 3: The 5 Rules of Effective Delegation
Trying to do everything yourself is supervisory suicide, yet many managers find
it difficult to master the art of delegation. That's why this informative
session will focus on the basic, step-by-step how-to's of effective delegation.
You'll also learn the most common delegation mistakes – and how to avoid them –
and find out which types of tasks should never be delegated to others. By
sharpening your delegation skills, you'll boost your personal productivity
overnight and build a stronger department or work team.
Session 4: Staying Motivated in Your Demanding and
Stressful Job
Today's leaders often feel they have the weight of the whole organization on
their shoulders, which is why this insightful session is filled with creative
ideas for keeping yourself "up" when your job gets you down. Find out how
viewing your responsibilities in new ways can give you a fresh perspective and
discover proven techniques for "keeping your attitude right" even when you feel
like you've been through the wringer! By learning how to stay motivated and
reduce stress, you'll gain far greater satisfaction from your work.

Simple, no-nonsense distortion that goes from barely noticeable overdrive to almost full-on fuzz.
The Acapulco Gold is a dirt-simple power amp distortion device that's based on the vibe of a cranked Sunn Model T. You know what's awesome? Vintage Sunn Amplifiers. You know what else is awesome? Simplicity. One button, one knob. How loud would you like it? Just move the knob. This is the spirit of rock and roll. Quit turning knobs and play that guitar like you mean it.
While playing, you may want to try ignoring our suggestion and try fiddlin' with your guitar's volume and tone knobs as these can drastically affect the sound of the Acapulco Gold. The volume knob on your guitar cleans up the pedal nicely, but not too clean. At minimum guitar volume settings, the Gold imparts a hazy, Nashville-sounding spank to your tone. At just-barely-backed-off, the Gold turns into a raunchy overdrive. And of course when the guitar volume is completely open, the Gold roars like a Model T on the verge of explosion. It's not quite fuzz, but so close.
Each Acapulco Gold is made part by part, wire by wire, giant knob by giant knob with real, live humanimal hands in Earthquaker's gilded manufactory located in gray olde Akron, Ohio, USA.
- Gritty distortion tones that can be tweaked using your guitar's volume controls
- Simple one-knob control layout
- Handmade in the USA

Sun Rising
This year marks the 60th anniversary of legendary Memphis record label Sun Records. Founded by record producer Sam Phillips, Sun was largely responsible for establishing rock'n'roll music as an important cultural artform in the '50s. Earlier this year, Melbourne's David Cosma and Damon Smith conceived Sun Rising: The Songs That Made Memphis, a performance based tribute to Phillips and the astounding musicians he worked with. The hip-shaking five-piece Sun Rising band showcase the music of Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, BB King, Howlin' Wolf, Carl Perkins Johnny Cash as well as some lesser known Sun alumni. David Cosma reveals the decision to do a Sun Records tribute was the inevitable outcome a longstanding personal passion.
"I'm a massive Elvis fan and have been since my earliest memory of music. That's been a massive influence on me, in particular early Elvis. Damon's equally as big of a Jerry Lee Lewis fan. We'd been talking about it for a while and we thought rather than just tribute the two guys there's a lot more on offer that came from that studio, especially early on. Once we really started digging we found there was an unbelievable amount of artists worth telling people about that had come from this one little studio, all produced by Sam Phillips."
Cosma is thoroughly acquainted with the history of Sun Records and explains that Sam Phillips initiated Sun Studios to promote music that the commercial tastes of the time ruefully overlooked.
"His main criteria at that time, before discovering the likes of Elvis, was to give a voice mainly to the black artists, because that music wasn't getting any recognition whatsoever. Major labels weren't interested in any sort of rhythm and blues music. His main objective early on was to just uncover music that wasn't getting a fair run out there. He grew up in Alabama on a 300-acre plantation, so he was already to exposed to grass-level blues, guys singing in the cotton fields, women singing while they're doing their chores, that sort of thing."
Phillips' endeavour to introduce rhythm and blues to a wider audience coincided with a remarkable instance of 'right place at the right time', which led him to discover many of the musicians who effectively set rock and roll music in motion.
"It's not every day you've got Elvis Presley living not far and dropping in to say hello. Johnny Cash was from the area, Howlin' Wolf had a radio spot in West Memphis at the time. A lot of these guys were from in and around the area."
Sam Phillips certainly had a knack for identifying artistic flair but Cosma's research suggests Phillips didn't need to actively intervene to sculpt the classic songs recorded at Sun Studios.
"Elvis' debut, That's Alright Mama, totally came by mistake. It wasn't like Sam was really pushing for something. Howlin' Wolf, for example, he just invited him in and pressed record and let him do what he did best, which was sing away with his intensity. If anything he had the ability to recognise potential talent and then get the best out of them without pushing too much of a direction on them."
The entire Sun catalogue is characterised by stunning integrity and the Sun Rising set-list includes a large portion of quality songs that Cosma believes would be unfamiliar to most people.
"Even the Elvis songs, generic Elvis fans probably wouldn't know, apart from maybe That's Alright Mama or Mystery Train. We cover Rufus Thomas Jr, an early Howlin' Wolf song, an early BB King song, Ike Turner. Probably 80 per cent of the songs, even by artists that are well known, are probably not songs that are familiar to people."
Focusing exclusively on the early Sun recordings distinguishes the show from being a covers gig. The Sun Rising band approach it as an authentic tribute, rather than an impersonation.
"We've really done our best to keep it as authentic to the original recording as we can. It takes quite a bit of discipline not to overplay. We run it chronologically too. It starts really early on in 1951, before the label actually came into play but Sam Phillips was still recording at that studio, chronologically up until about the mid-'50s with Jerry Lee Lewis."
Another crucial component of the show is relating various anecdotes from the period. Seguing with background stories contextualises the songs and offers the audience an in depth Sun Records education.
"We wanted to put together a show that wasn't just necessarily an hour worth of music. We're in the fortunate position of having the stories that come out of Sun. Whether it was how the artist was discovered or maybe a story behind the song, that's enabled us to link 80 per cent of the songs with a story. We like to think they're all accurate, but they are all interesting. That's been a big part of the feedback from people who have seen the show: 'we really enjoyed the music but we really enjoyed the unexpected history lesson too'."
Cosma confirms that Sun Rising will continue beyond the epochal 60th anniversary year.
"Our intention is to really keep this thing going. I'm such a fan of that music and so is Damon and the guys in the band, but we didn't know how it was going to be received. It's been received so well I think we'd be nuts not to carry it on."
Come and celebrate the 60th anniversary of Sun Records at Cherry Bar on Saturday December 15. They also play The Palais in Hepburn Springs on Friday December 14.

In the aftermath of José Mourinho's firing, Chelsea has shown some life. The Blues haven't approached their championship form of a season ago, but they've certainly looked better than they did in the 2015 portion of the season. Nevertheless, their latest result was another reminder that this is an utterly lost season for Chelsea (notwithstanding a Champions League miracle). And for that reason, now seems like a good time to look back on the team's five biggest disasters in this EPL campaign thus far.
5. February 3 – Watford 0-0 Chelsea
We'll start with the most recent failure by the Blues to come out on top in a winnable match, because this was a sobering reminder that the season can't be salvaged. Watford's tense draw, which we recapped here, denied Diego Costa the moment he's seemingly been waiting for (he nearly had a winner late in the contest). It also seemingly stopped any momentum the Blues gained in recent weeks. After a strong 1-0 win over Arsenal at The Emirates and a resounding 5-1 victory in the fourth round of the FA Cup, Chelsea looked to be in something of a rhythm—until travelling to Watford.
4. December 28 – Man Utd. 0-0 Chelsea
By this point, the season was already lost and then some for the Blues, and many in the football world were calling for Mourinho's sacking. But it was still a nice opportunity to end 2015 on a high note by stealing three points at Old Trafford. Furthermore, as this Gambling.com preview aptly pointed out in advance of the match, Man Utd. had shown some "worrying weaknesses" heading into the contest. Specifically, Man Utd. was on a three-match losing streak in EPL play and hadn't won a game in any competition since November 21. The stage was set, and Chelsea just couldn't take advantage of opportunity.
3. September 12 – Everton 3-1 Chelsea
Chelsea's collapse this season was so bizarre that it seemed simultaneously sudden and drawn out, and for that reason it's difficult to pick out a certain point at which it became clear there was a real problem. This lopsided defeat to Everton may have been the result that showed us the depth of the problem. After losing by a goal to Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge, the Blues had two weeks to shake off an extremely poor start and earn their first win against a middling club. Yet, they couldn't pull it off, and their first league win didn't come until September 19.
2. December 5 – Chelsea 0-1 Bournemouth
If the Everton loss was the signal that there was a genuine, deep issue with this Chelsea club, a home loss to bottom-dwelling Bournemouth was probably the point of no return. As this Daily Mail recap put it, the loss to Bournemouth put talk of Mourinho's sacking back on the agenda in London. The Blues were booed by their home fans and the football world was left genuinely stunned at how such a talented group of players had fallen to such a depth.
1. August 16 – Man City 3-0 Chelsea
Perhaps this was the match that started it all. Chelsea had already started the season in dubious form, dropping one-goal matches to Arsenal (in the Community Shield) and Fiorentina before league play opened. But a 2-2 draw with Swansea City to start the campaign was no disaster and could have easily been brushed off as nothing but a slow start. Getting shellacked 3-0 at Manchester City the following week, however, was nothing short of disheartening to the Chelsea faithful. Results like this can occasionally happen when top clubs meet, but in this case Chelsea just never righted the ship.

Unanswered: One to many relationship - not allowing
*Items (books)
If my SubjectHeadings table includes records of headings that haven't been used yet (a standard list) could this be causing the problem that I cannot get the relationships window to accept a One to Many relationship between Items.ID and item_subjectheadings.book?

if you need to have the same subjectheading appearing more than once then you need some mechanism to handle that. depending on what you are trying to achieve that could be another element that makes an item_subjectheading unique, or if you cannot find one then mebbe use a surrogate key, eg another auton generated number.I'd rather be riding on the Tiger 800 or the Norton

Healdem. It is right that no book can have the same subject heading more than once. So although a bookid appears many times in the item_subjectheadings table it will never appear in a row with the same subjectid.
Startrekker, I did make bookid and subjectid the primary key of the item_subjectheadings table but I get the same problem.
I checked both tables for duplicates and there aren't any. If I think that my primary table has a related record in the item_subjectheadings table for every record, is there a way of checking if I'm right? There are about 5000 records in the primary table and 8000 in the item_subjectheadings.

I used the Find Unmatched Query Wizard (who'd have thought!) and there was a sneaky record that indeed did not have a record in the item_subjectheadings table. Now that it is gone I was able to make the relationship One-to-many with enforced referential integrity.
I always misread that option and thought it had to do with an "unmatched query" and not "find records that are unmatched via a query"

People from that tribe have no iota of respect for their parents that is how they are brought up and then it backfires against them. The only thing they worship and respect is money so this is not surprising at all so they should deal with it ans stop complaining publicly. We don't give 2 fucks.

Many parents who have disowned their children in the past, has always regretted it for the drastic actions they took.
Some even lay a curse on them. This one made it a public notice maybe because he's a well known business man.
But, I will never disowned my child no matter what; God Almighty have not disowned me for all the numerous sins have committed (although I keep begging for forgiveness and I never go back committing the same sin).
God is merciful and I believe in tendering justice with Mercy.

no o, Stella, fathers don't love their kids the way mothers do, reason why u never/hardly hear of mothers disowning their kids. same way we have kids from hell, we have parents from hell. when a parent from hell begets a child from hell, this is what you get.

They have done an abominable things, like selling thier father's property, arranged armed robber to come and visit their father at home or may be caught sleeping with thier father's youngest or newly married wife.
There is possibility their father did this to get to thier mother or in a situation whereby the man think he's not the real father, but the reason behind this must be very strong.

Oluwastella, some children are above redemption, some children will take their parents landed property document and sell the land regardless of the pain it will bring such parent. I am saying "let's not judge those that disown their child rather let's pray our own children don't turn out bad"
Remember those parents that disowned their children were in a festive mood when the child was newly born to them, abi if they did not disown the child when he/she was a baby why disown him when its time to start reaping from him... Think!! Means the child must have grown wings and done something unpardonable.

I disagree with you Stella. It is not always the parents fault if their child turned out bad. Some parents do try as much as they can to raise their children in a right and Godly way but some children will still misbehave after all the Godly training they got. Anybody wey wan spoil go spoil regardless of how hard his/her parents tried. As for the disowning part, I don't think i can disown my child but will discipline him.
- 20 November 2016 at 10:27
The father has every right to disown an adult child.
The sons in these cases are fully responsible for their actions. That's my take

This is dead ass wrong. Why disown him publicly and alone?
Even in the days of old, no man takes judgement on his rebellious son alone, the elders have to be called in to decide at the civic center or village arena.
Read Deuteronomy 21-18-23 carefully. Lately,arguments bothering on sexual orientation (gays) in some families will be decided this Xmas amongst many families. I know at least 2. And brought before the Igwe's Cabinet, the elders will decide. The church is being left out because half of the Reverends are bound on questionable sexuality.
Not easy raising a family and working to till to leave huge investments for them and your first son comes home with tatoos, pierced body with earrings and his gay partner. Hugging and kissing while people shake their head in disbelief? Alùù. Abomination!
Call me a traditional lady but if you try that ish in my family, my Daddy will pull his double barrel gun with the nozzle facing your skull. While asking Mum "mu na onye di mu?"(na me and who born this boy?). You won't sleep in his compound, you wait by the fence for the Elders to arrive.

Karma is real. This Andrew nworah used to be a family friend. If he gets interested in a girl, forget it, he will definitely sleep with you. I dont know if he used jazz or something but the only woman we can partially vouch that he didnt sleep with is his mother. His cas was that bad. So he should endure anything the son is doing now afterall he was not a role model when he was younger

For a Reverend to be "bound on questionable sexuality" means that he knows that being Gay is abnormal on all fronts but he is not permitted to condemn it publicly, let alone DISOWN someone based on it. The CHURCH does not permit him to.
It does not mean he has Questionable Sexuality. He may be married and straight. Tradition has no patience for diplomacy and church logic.

Why must everything about Yoruba/ Igbo on dis blog. Them swear for nna ni.
I am a Yoruba lady married to an Igbo guy, by which I never had issues in that marriage.
Stop having misconceptions about things you haven't experienced. The funny thing is while growing up my mum never for one day worked, always a housewife, dad provided everything. All the Yoruba men Iv had around me always took care of dere family. It's on reading dis blog I hear such things.
In contrary my in laws who are even igbos from IMO. My hubby always respected my family setting. Bcos his own mum was even d provider in d house working at customs, even sending them abroad. It's like d father is just a figure head in the home. Contributes to nothing. But wetin be my own, my husband is d opposite bcos he sees what his mum went thru being almost like a single mum.
It is all about individual and not Tribe abeg.
This is our problem in this our country Nigeria, hence our non progress.

Anon 18:22 what has the nonsense you've puked got to do with Igbos taking out ads in newspapers disowning their children. An act which seems to be only exclusive to the Igbo tribe in all of Nigeria. The truth hurts we know, even the Igbos here have acknowledged they worship and respect only money and have no respect for their parents, just ask Henry Eze, so why are you convulsing over the truth. Also if you don't like what happens in Lagos and Yoruba land get the fuck out of there, go back to your state and stay there and be proudly Ibo instead of trafficking drugs about and getting killed like rodents. Noticed you referred to yourself as Ibo, I thought the Igbos here say that no real Igbo person will refer to themselves as Ibo.

Christopher Nolan's epic space adventure Interstellar launches November 7th, and everyone is feeling the hype of space travel. Luckily for all of us mere humans chocked full of impatience; the good folks over at Paramount are here to fill our galactic needs!
They have painstakingly developed an all-inclusive space-geared Application for Interstellar. I mean, guys, it has everything! You can control and play with numerous settings to control every detail inside the game. In the App you can create and customize your very own solar system. YOUR VERY OWN SOLAR SYSTEM, PILOTS! Right down to the tiniest factor of gravitational pull and planet surface size. You can add astroid belts, destroy your own planets, or build them up with moons of all sizes and materials. All of which affect your expedition and the functions of your system. You'll be exploring other player-built solar systems, navigating through their orbits and collecting data to bring back to Earth for your mission. You'll even be manning and piloting the spacecraft Endurance from the film itself to give you an exclusive and unique connection to the movie. Slide on over, McConaughey!
The App is based on the classic Newtonian physics conceptualized by the film's scientific advisor, Kip Thorne. Thorne is the Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics at Caltech and has a hefty career in researching wormholes. You can tell just how much care they put into the Application, so it really gets you buzzing to see what they have done with the movie. When playing in the App you can see without a doubt that they did some serious research and worked very closely with the actual science, adhering to the laws of real-time physics. The space-time continuum in the gameplay feels and reacts very realistically. You can feel the polar drag of the strong orbits you're slingshotting between, or the chaotic slippage when your craft goes off course.
The Interstellar Experience gives you two real-world fundamentals of space travel to utilize during your odyssey: fuel and gravity, the two main ingredients to any mission. The gravity will help you use less fuel throughout your excursion if you hit the pockets just right, catapulting around an infinite universe. Your main goal is to travel as extensively as you can throughout your neighboring systems without using too much of your precious resources. If you happen to die a fiery astronomical death or run out of spacecraft propelling fuel your distance meter will reset along with your fuel levels, giving you another go at the adventure. Make sure you upgrade your ship and blast off amongst the planetary systems again!
You will encounter nasty black holes that will do their best to swallow you whole, forcing you to maneuver your hurling craft with thrusters and steer your way to safety. Then jump through a wormhole that will transport you to a new galaxy! I had a lot of fun with this. With a massive online catalog of other players, the possibilities for travel and expeditions are potentially limitless. You can be exploring outer space without boundaries!
Now that you're getting way too excited to play this, let's break down the features of this incredibly interactive cosmic game, shall we?!
App Features
- Create your own solar system and share it with friends
- Customize planets, stars and asteroids
- Pilot the Endurance through friend's and other fan's solar systems
- Upgrade your ship to increase durability and range
- Earn mission patches for completing objectives
- Based on Newtonian physics with simulated gravitational fields endorsed by the movie's science advisor Kip Thorne
- Slingshot between planets and return research data to Earth
- Navigate past massive black holes
Your new favorite App (trust me on this one) is now available for in-browser play and free download on the Google Market! Don't worry Apple lovers, it comes out for your iOS device next week.

Okt 1st America will give it's power [ICANN ]to regulate the internet to the United Nations.Which includes China... Russia I believe.
Can the SAFE Network survive on it's own without the central regulation of IP/DNS/Domain'swhen the United Nations starts censoring?
Yes, because it doesn't rely on any of that.
Great! Thanks happybeing
MAID SAFE is really awesome.
Actually, this move to cede DNS control to the UN will drive SAFE Network adoption, whether it actually is done or not.
I'm really jazzed by recent progress but am awfully itchy to see the network launch in a viable way. There is a huge upsurge of coordinated censorship, demonitization, etc., happening on the clearnet recently, mostly within the big platforms like Facebook, Twitter, etc., but coordinated along political correctness lines.
Why do you think the USA does a better job?
Western democracies have a tendency to violate our rights only in more or less subtle ways. With China and Russia in the UN Security Council, we give a lot of power to nations that are less squeamish.
Granted, I can't imagine how the UN or its Security Council would go about undermining freedom (or, what's left of it) of the Internet, I'm sure those countries will show great creativity, if necessary.
Also, I don't understand most of what I'm talking about. You have been warned
As @Tim87 touches on, western peoples (especially Scots ) have culture which openly admires freedom as a key societal principle to aspire to. While governments, including the US gov't, are always doing what governments do--i.e., continue to centralize power and control, and thus become more dictatorial--they have the cultural traditions of the people pushing back pretty consistently, including people populating government at all levels who come from that tradition of idealizing freedom, with the corollary of English common law which seeks to maximize it. This effect is being diluted but is still strongest in the US--and Britain to some degreee, if Brexit is any indication.
The internet was originated and largely proliferated by the US, and the DNS standards and organization has remained fairly free as compared to what it might be otherwise.
Despite its loftily stated principle, the UN is a menace as it is pushed forward to be given more and more central, and arbitrary control. It is insulated even further from direct accountability from real people, who also come from varied cultures, many of which do not revere freedom (or even think it is a desirable aspiration). UN is rather the ultimate in centralization of power.
SAFE is working to make that centralization mote. But I'd like to see the "world government" take over of internet control held off for a while. Even the US control is compromised, but under UN control I don't doubt it will devolve faster.
Almost seems like no matter how powerful and 100% effective SAFE is, there's the potential for the clear net to be completely trashed in order to catch as much of the public in a maelstrom of snooping etc., though it's pretty much already like that. In other words: SAFE will be literally the best thing ever, and will work—but, while everyone is transitioning over to it: the current, "owner" class of the clear net (Google, governments) will enjoy destroying everything to ground zero, as quickly as possible. Just some thoughts.
Interesting take. Maybe like "creative destruction."
As far as ICANN goes, no, the US can do no better job that say the UK, to keep speech free. But that's not the point. ICANN, in a sense, is a coercive internet-address monopoly. MaidSafe has the potential to save free speech in the digital sphere.
Maybe. But I also think that things are the way they are largely because the technology combined with the worst influences (sociopaths with financial monopoly) conspire to keep everyone in the rigged game. When presented with such a sane alternative as SAFE promises to be, perhaps some cooler heads will do cool things and help mitigate the destruction caused by the flailing of the dying behemoth.
I don't really disagree, but we're not talking about transferring control to the UK. The US has a rightful claim to it which wouldn't really pass to the UK. What's being considered it passing it directly or indirectly to the UN. Now THAT"S different.
Let me clarify...
ICANN and the organizations, countries, businesses that run it, set the address naming rules for the current internet. There are exceptions I believe, but broadly speaking, ICANN has a lot of control. If we choose to use their system or are not allowed to create our own -- like what MaidSafe is doing -- then we are controlled by a coercive address naming monopoly. If the UN controls ICANN, naturally things could get worse, but ultimately, this is not the question. The question is or rather the solution can be, to create an internet resistant to being censored. A system like MaidSafe.
Thanks. We are on the same page, certainly.
This sort of thing is why decentralisation is needed. Safe net will make this a non-issue.
Agreed @fergish, thats why SAFE Net has my vote and support.
We must persist. There will be a point when the masses see the need.
I was hoping you'd see the obvious. But then the guys already explained.
Here's another thought. If it ain't broke don't fix it.The US has done a great job.
It would be an interesting project to write a wee DNS server with a safe net back end. The back end would do the lookup against safe net to resolve the IP address, then allow the browser to connect with the clear net site directly.
The safe net back end could adopt a simple convention, by leaning on safe net DNS. Literally, you could register the exact domain on safe net, and upload an ipv4.txt file to the route, which would just contain the IPv4 IP address (IPv6.txt could service ipv6).
The DNS server could run locally, along with the launcher. It would listen on port 53 like a normal DNS server, but it would request the safe ipv4.txt file (e.g. safe://maidsafe.net/ipv4.txt), which would return the IP address. Anything that was not found could just proxy to a regular clear net DNS server instead.
There are open source clear net DNS servers, which could be patched to do this relatively easily. It could be fast too, especially with some caching.
Finally, the alpha network could do this reliably right now. Sure, it may get reset and it isn't fully distributed yet, but it could work rather well.
Edit: You could also subscribe to DNS curators, who had a single safe net DNS url and resolved via url paths. This would circumvent safe net DNS, allowing an alternative (override?) mechanism if desirable.
Yeah, a great job for the USA (and their closest allies).
Can you find a mismatch between number of people using the internet and the size of the IP block? A large block gives you a clear competitive advantage.
I hear China are experts with ipv6 though and have transitioned ahead of much of the rest of the world. Swings and roundabouts as they say!
I think the mismatch is largely due to the fact that .com, .net, .org, etc.. are US registered domains, wherever they are being used. Also the fact that the US has led the development, even if others have taken the lead in many areas.
That's not to say that the US is the best possible solution to keep control. We need to continue to make that irrelevant. In the meantime, the UN is not a good solution.
I don't think the graph has anything to do with domains. Just what IPs a country gets to control.
I agree UN is not a good entity, it should be replaced with something much more democratic.
