Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Great point you make, Jdcash. At this point, Ms. Mayor and the City Council are so in bed with Parrot and the zoo, I don't think they'll do a darned thing.
They've been obfuscating the actual nature of Knowland Park for so long, I don't expect much. I've lived just down the road in San Leandro for decades, and I just found out Knowland Park is a former State Park given to the City of Oakland for all to use, not just the zoo. Now they've given Parrot a green light to build his 57 acre, 37.000 square foot three story office and 'conservation theme park' on top of that ridge.
Thanks to this article, I plan to vote against this ballot measure. Of course, the real lesson here is that our system of governance can only function when we have a free and open media, one that can bring public awareness to malfeasance and illegality. No where is that more true than in Oakland. Now, the question is, what does the city plan to do about holding the zoo accountable?
By the way thanks for answering Mr. Gammon
Everything I wrote is true, and I know for a fact I personally saw everything, with exception of him sexualy harassing woman I didnt get to see him do that to other woman, but im 100 % its true because he would sexually harass me! And I know for a fact that he owes 1 person in specic the amount of $50 thousand dollars plus another $50k that he promised to give that person as a yrs profit, wich he obviously hasnt even given that person a single dollar in fact he refuses to take that any calls from that person or meet personally. I honestly think its time for someone to put a stop to him and make him pay. I dont even know how hes gotten away with all this.

su vidad pasada no es problem todos tenemos dificutades en la vida . lo que molesta es que a su propia gente le mienta y le robe. pero si le robo a la ciudad city de okland que no robe a su gente, lo que mas me molesta es que tenga un negocio y el negocio lo maneje gente que no tiene experiencia y pase a joder a nuestra gente. porque el siempre se la pasa en el cityhall y no sabe que pasa en su negocio y cuando quiere uno ablar con el para saber que pasa no da la cara. y quiere seguir postulandose para un puesto mas alto, "pobre" si no puede controlar su vidad podra controlar la de los ciudadanos me pregunto?

As to the council "not telling anyone" about the new system, it's not the council's responsibility to do so, it's the city clerk's office. And several campaigns told me that they were informed by the clerk's office. So I'd be interested in knowing which campaigns say they were never informed.
But as for councilmembers themselves, they certainly knew about the new system, and yet aren't using it (except for Reid).
How can the Council buy an electronic filing system two weeks before the filing deadline, not tell anyone about it, and expect candidates to use it?
NetFile is easy to use.
I'll be using it for my District 1 Council election reports.
You're absolutely right about Oakland politicians and transparency. It's something they want for the other pols but exempt themselves.
Today I heard a novel rationalization of why some local pols believe the Brown (aka Sunshine Act) is bad law.
The reasoning went that it discouraged candid discussions of policy, thereby "forcing" council members to meet in small exempt clusters to make decisions before larger council meetings. That the unintended consequence of the Act was to balkanize the Council.
The rest of that reasoning would have it that the public doesn't want to see Council members' reason out loud in front of the cameras'. I guess that it makes them look dumb? The salami making theory of government (no one would eat salami if they watched it get made)
My response was that the few times I've seen the Council members engaging in candid discussion was before the recent Pension Bond vote. While I strongly disagree with their final decision, it was refreshing to see them discuss the issues transparently. Yes it did make some of them look less than up to the task of making 250Mill decisions, but at least it felt like democracy.

I have mixed feelings about American Indian Public Charter School, two of my sons and a niece attended. My oldest son survived, while my niece thrived and is entering her last year of Medical school with an overall 4.0 GPA. My youngest son was ridiculed, degraded and received an unacceptable punishment so, I removed him from the school. Now that my youngest son has graduated from high school, I know for a fact, he would have been a more productive and confident student had I made him complete Ben's program.
There were many things I did not like about the school, location, Ben's intimidation tactic enforced upon student/teachers/parent, his racists comments, etc., but there were many things I loved about the school. AIPCS's Students cover every chapter in each textbook ,unlike many public schools and completing homework is mandatory. The school's rich academic culture is the reason why the test scores are so high. Do I think Ben is crazy? Yes, but I will say this – many students thrive in that environment! The children respect his passion and opening them up to academic greatness.

Well, Approval Voting is a vastly better voting system than Instant Runoff Voting. You can see in Bayesian Regret calculations that IRV is generally the worst of the five commonly proposed Alternative Voting Systems:
Approval Voting is much simpler (uses an ordinary ballot, but just removes the one-candidate limit — so you can vote for as many candidates as you want). It can NEVER punish you (give a worse result) for voting for your sincere favorite candidate, the way ranked systems such as IRV can. And its generally the second most satisfying system according to Bayesian Regret calculations.
Here's a more rigorous comparison between Approval Voting and IRV.
My view is that if Oakland had adopted Approval Voting instead of IRV, the anti-reform forces wouldn't be able to make any credible case in favor of repealing it back to Plurality Voting. It's so simple, they wouldn't be able to claim that people were confused by it. It actually results in LOWER ballot spoilage.
Not that there's any point trying to talk about facts with most IRV advocates. My experience has been that the vast majority of them have no interest in objectively scientifically debating the facts. They seem to have their minds made up, and any attempt to engage them will almost surely be ignored.

This is not about 2010, it's about 2014. This isn't about Quan, this is about ensuring voter hear the nuances between candidates in elections with a myriad of similar candidates.
Good article. Another specious argument always put forth by the anti-RCV crowd is that (as in the Oakland example), Perata "got the most votes". Having the "most votes", however, doesn't win the election, either by the old system or RCV. What wins the day is a majority, i.e., greater than 50%. Perata did not get more than 50% of the vote. The thing I honestly don't get about the anti-RCV crowd is what, in their heart of hearts, is their complaint.
@SteveC: Thank you for correcting my wording about the votes. However, the conclusion is not altered. Quan won by ending up with 54,000 final votes from first, second, and third choices - 44 percent of the 122,000 votes cast. Quan v. Perata is one thing; the legitimacy conferred by getting a majority is another thing. Oakland never united around Jean Quan, neither before the election, nor in the election, and certainly not after the election.
At least the vote numbers are public, unlike Mayor Quan's secret poll a year ago that, according to her, showed the Measure I parcel tax was sure to pass (except it was defeated by a stunning 62 to 38 percent), and unlike Mayor Quan's semi-secret 100-block "safety plan."

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Go! Malawi, Hebron, ME, USA
I volunteered with Friends of Littlefield at their orphanage in Malawi where they do amazing job in providing underprivileged orphans with housing, clothes, and emotional support. The home provides the children with necessary school supplies. Also, the home sponsors high school level orphans by providing them with tuition fees which is a major contributing factor to high school dropouts among the underprivileged. Also, the home helps in improving the health conditions of the Malawian rural communities through Sexually transmitted Diseases (STDs) awareness campaigns. Currently, the home is also working on providing the community they are serving with micro-loans to boost the community's economy.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Alot of orphans have had a chance to realize their goals of attaining higher education which they would not without the support of Friends of Littlefield Home. Some have finished high school and are on their way to attaining tertiary education. Many children who lost their parents while very young and had nobody to provide them with essential support have managed to survive and grow with the help of this organization.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
i would promote the strengthening of the relationship between the organization and the community receiving the aid.

- Rick Springfield made several very good records in the '70s and also had a handful of hits, most notably 1972's "Speak to the Sky," which climbed to number 14 on the Billboard chart, and he continued to record into the new millennium, but for most listeners, he will be forever identified with the streak of hits he had in the early '80s. After over a decade of hard work, he finally had a huge hit in 1981 with the terrific "Jessie's Girl," a tense power pop classic that turned into a number one hit and turned Springfield into a huge star. Over the next five years, he had 14 Top 40 singles in America, the great majority of which are collected on VH1 Classic/Legacy's 2006 release We Are the '80s. As the title suggests, this 14-track compilation focuses entirely on Springfield's '80s work -- those looking for a more comprehensive retrospective should turn to Legacy's excellent 2005 double-disc set Written in Rock -- and it does a good job of rounding up the biggest singles, including "Don't Talk to Strangers," "What Kind of Fool Am I?," "I Get Excited," "Love Somebody," "State of the Heart," "I've Done Everything for You," and the single versions of "Love Is Alright Tonight," "Affair of the Heart," "Human Touch," "Don't Walk Away," and "Bop Til You Drop." Not every single is here -- most regrettably, the very funny "I'm not Springsteen" single "Bruce" is once again left off a domestic Springfield comp, and "Souls," "Don't Walk Away," and "Taxi Dancing" are also missing -- but those absences are for those fans who know the catalog very well. All other listeners will find this to be a first-rate overview of Springfield's popular peak. [We Are the 80's was reissued in 2008 as Playlist: The Very Best of Rick Springfield]. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

The Twinfinite Video team got their hands on the Call of Duty: Black Ops III beta for PS4 and decided to prove they are, in fact, a wonderful team together. They proved nothing, actually. In fact, they also proved they can't video edit since the multi-cam idea got shot. What messes. Did they at least win a match, though? Watch and find out!

Atari 1040 ST Midi Sequencing

Everyone's like - "Dont get one. Get a Mac with the latest Cubase!". But the Atari comes with decent software and has all the midi ins and out's already fitted and MORE importantly - I can afford it!!
Has anyone used one? I've got a few samplers and modules and I just need something basic but reliable, to control them.
I have an Akai/Linn ASQ-10 which I'm looking to sell, so the Atari's looking good as a replacement....
What's the way forward?
Fri 18th Apr 2003, 1:20 pm
if you want audio recording capability, then get a mac/pc.
If you want a flexible and relatively cheap midi sequencer, and have no need for audio capability, i say go for the ST.

...but take a lot at epk's advice here;

As I said there, I used it as a basis for MIDI recording for years, and it was great, providing you saved data regularly.
In particular, it could also be synced up to analogue tape recorders, if you lost a track for a sync signal.
Anything you need to know about using it, mail me.
First, make sure you expand your Atari RAM by a couple of meg. You'll be scraping by otherwise.

They're fine for running MIDI.
But if you want the option to upgrade buy the all purpose PC.
That way if you do want to start editing audio, (and you will), you'll be halfway there.
Sonar for the PC is making it's presence felt since future versions of Logic are for Mac only, and having had a tour of it I can see why.
It seems to provide some of the best features of other sequencers and seems to be very processor friendly.
On a
900 / 128 PC running Windows Me, Logic was very slow to edit audio and even couldn't loop properly without going out of time.
Sonar had no hassles and even on this budget system was able to run 6 tracks of audio.
You can always buy an external MIDI timer such as Emagic AMT or the Unitor 8 for tightening up your MIDI stuff.

For the first time in its 332-year history, the City of Norfolk has an official anthem — and citizens can help the song take shape in a new music video.
Appropriately titled "The Tide," Norfolk native Skye Zentz was inspired to write the song by the city's eclectic character and relationship with the water. Now, with the help of Jpixx, a local digital creative agency, Zentz is on a mission to showcase the city and community she calls home.
Filming for the music video began last month in partnership with the Downtown Norfolk Council and includes shots at Nauticus, Bob's Gun Shop, the Virginia Zoo and more than a dozen other locations. Norfolk citizens can be part of the video's grand finale scene at The Plot on Friday, July 18 beginning at 7:00 p.m. The event is known as "Pack the Plot" (more details on the event Facebook page). The Plot sits at the northeast corner of Granby and Olney Streets in the Norfolk Arts District.
"We want the final scene to showcase how much fun Norfolk is; how bright and passionate we are about our future," said Zentz. "I want folks to come out, enjoy some great music and have a good time."
The grand finale event is open to all ages and will feature local food trucks and live entertainment from Zentz. Jon Abrahams, founder of Jpixx, is directing the music video and asks attendees to dress colorfully and come ready to boast their Norfolk pride.
"The Tide" by Skye Zentz can be purchased or downloaded for free online here.

Okay, been away for awhile. Holidays, writing, life gettin' in the way, ya know? Well, let's talk a little bit about Tom Brady. I won't bother with the stats. You can go to NFL.com and tons of other places if you want that. What I want to mention is how impressed I am about the fact that he can win in tons of ways. He can simply throw for over 350 yards and just outmuscle the other team. Or, like last week, he can throw for about 230 yards, maybe less, and connect on only about half his passes, but still throw 3 touchdowns with no picks and beat you handily. He connected on a low number of passes, but three of them were TDs--which means, he's on the money when it really matters. And he can pick apart your defense, too. There were more dropped passes than there were off-target passes, last week, I assure you (and some lucky passes that weren't picked off, sure).
I mention all this because he just wins. He wins sparingly; he wins by outslinging the other QB; he wins because of his accuracy; he wins because he was lucky not to be picked off; he wins because his line protects him well and gives him a lot of time to throw; he wins because he's got a great coach. He wins. He just wins. And, I don't know if anyone's been noticing this, but he also wins without taking any days off. He's not in Favre's league yet, but he takes some hits and gets back in there. He does all this without being a prettyboy, a primadonna, a jerk, or a mistake in front of the mike. He could so easily be any of these things, and not just because of his talent, his wins, his Super Bowls, or his wife--plenty of players have been more of a jerk and not done quite as much.
He's a role model in a time when no one is anymore. What else can you ask for?

Subaru Legacy/Outback 2005+
That's some major endorsement coming from you, especially the earlier comment about 5EAT being smooth and fun to drive.
I even stopped by my local dealer to check on when the GTs are coming in.
I'm faaaaalllllliiinnnnnnnggggg!
So when did the local dealer tell you the GT's WERE coming in?????
subaru_team Posts: 1,676on a VERY smooth and comfortable landing - in a new Subaru!
tlima Posts: 124Ok, merging onto I95 N today in Rhode Island, and low and behold, an '05 Outback cruising along side. License plate was a RI plate, but had the letters M.E.D vertically along the left side and a low number. I assumed it was a Doc or something, but maybe M.E.D. stands for something else. It was not a dealer plate.
Anyway, the guy driving noticed me looking as I passed in my '01 Forester, he then came around and passed me on the left. It was a silver metallic with only the words Subaru and Outback on the back. No dealer insignia or hideous dealer plate frames.
Looked nice, very sleek, and kinda small. It was tall, with the suspension rods angling way down towards the wheels. Lots of ground clearance here. Looks a little Volvo-ish - which can be seen from the pics here and there.
From checking this forum, I didn't think they were out for sale yet, but maybe I missed it.
Awaiting the sedans....
I was told early June.
beanboy Posts: 442Told early to mid June at my local Soobie dealer in Norwood, MA.
Patti, Juice, etal (and any tall 2005 OB owners):
I've had a yearning for the OB VDC ever since I drove one, years ago. Unfortunately the MANDATORY moonroof made comfort, let alone crash safety, an insurmountable problem to buying one.
I've seen photos of the 2005 OB and it appears to have a "hump" in the roof. Is there more headroom in the 2005 OB vs 2004?
Absent more headroom in 2005 will Subaru USA at last decouple this valuable safety feature from the moonroof by making the moonroof optional in the OB VDC? Appreciate any input.

magoon Posts: 32My local dealer is scheduled to receive a silver GT Ltd 5 speed on May 17. I ordered it early but will not be taking delivery though. I bought a Volvo S60R instead.
bblacha Posts: 160New England dealers have had the Outbacks and Legacy 2.5i's for almost two weeks now. But I don't think they're allowed to sell. Must've been a dealer-owned car.
ateixeira Posts: 72,587Dealers have the 2.5i models. No turbos spottings yet, though.
The new ones do have more head room. Here's me in the back seat of a sedan with a moonroof, I'm 6' even:
http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4288069365&p=4194565477- &idx=47
Thanks for the link to your photos. They suggest a couple inches more of headroom over the 2004. Does that sound right? That might get me into a 2005 OB VDC. Any idea if the moonroof is mandatory on VDC?
Earlier postings on this board (re: VDC on more trim lines, models) express similar frustrations I've experienced trying to buy a Subaru with VDC. Why, I wonder, after all these years, is VDC still only offered on one trimline. Many Subaru wannabes are now offering AWD sedans, wagons (and God knows what else in 2005) and some have stability control options across all model lines.
Safety sells. Foresters prove that. But Subaru's improvements in crash protection arn't matched by similar improvements in collision avoidance. Subaru seems to be leaving the market to others.
PS: Pleased to see 2005s offer Side Air Curtains. Half of all the traumatic brain injuries occur in auto crashes. If well designed and executed, side curtains with large SABs offer a lot of protection from TBI. Hope 2005s get early IIHS/NHTSA reviews.
vincentwang Posts: 42I'm considering a 05 legacy, seems both have similar MPG. Why?
I only test drived the 04AUTO, it's smooth. How about the maunal one? I have no idea which one will be more durable in long-trem.
Thanks in advance!
The similar MPG in the auto vs manual is due to the higher axle gearing in the MT version. At highway speed the MT is forced to rev higher (3,500 RPM at 75 MPH) than the auto version (around 3,000 - 3,100 in the auto, IIRC)
Why Subaru uses the higher ratio in the MT is beyond me. Fuel economy and highway cruising would be greatly improved with a lower ratio.
My top wish for the 2006 MT models - lower axle ratios and a MT transmission with a wider low-high range. OK, make it a 6-speed too.
r34 Posts: 178I knew the current Legacy was made in US. Some said the 2005 will be made in Japan but some said it will be built in US.
I checked Edmunds and it said it will be manufactured in Japan ? If it is the case, it is a plus.
Usually, how much rebate or incentive we can get from Subaru (of course not in the first year) ?
Outbacks AND Legacies for the US/Canadian market are made in Lafayette, Indiana.
dudleyr Posts: 3,469I also wish a 6 speed was available. Except it seems like many manufacturers make 6th gear where 5th was to eeek out a couple of tenths to 60. I think they percieve shifting down at highway speeds a huge weekness, so they don't like tall gears in "sporty" cars. A corolla is about 2,900 rpm @ 75, hence its EPA 40 mpg highway. TSX is about 2,100 @ 60 for the automatic, but 2,600 for the 6-speed. Hence the automatic gets better highway mileage. The Miata 6 speed is 3,000 at 60, so it gets worse highway mileage than some V-8's.
mjc440 Posts: 76I own a 2004 Legacy 5 spd manual. When the '05s come out, I'll be getting the auto. I really dislike the manual. It is geared way to LOW (HIGHER numerically axle ratio). At 70 MPH, the engine is turning 3,000 RPMs.
I just checked my gas mileage (ran through about 10 tanks) and got 30.5 MPG (primarily highway - between 65 - 70 MPH), so gas mileage isn't too bad considering the low gearing.
pon1 Posts: 196Cool pictures posted on subaruoutback.org, follow links to forums/general/2005 US Leg and OB models...
Not sure I am allowed to post a link
I hit up a Subaru dealer in Central Jersey today. They just took delivery of their first 2005 Legacy- an Atlantic Blue Pearl 2.5i 5M. I couldnt test drive it, due to time constraints. But it sure looked great. This is the first time I've seen the standard alloys- they're sharp, and the center stack looks just as good with non-auto climate control. Plastic coverings all over the interior, but the cloth seemed very nicely patterned and of high quality.
I'm sorry I missed the chat tonight, Im going to try to tune in next week.
goneskiian Posts: 381Are they "made" in Lafayette or is it just the final assembly point? I'm confused as I've heard the engines are actually made in Japan, but I also have heard SIA is firing up an engine assembly plant as well. I know I've seen a website for SIA but can't seem to recall (or find) the URL at the moment.
The engine plant you spoke of was announced in 2000 and is operational. Even the turbo engines are now made in Lafayette. I am not certain about the H6, which may indeed come from Japan.
To mjc440: I would be ecstatic if I could get 30.5 MPG out of my MT Outback. The car is rated at 27 MPG and my best ever "interstate road trip" MPG was 25. (I've kept a spreadsheet since new.) I'm running synthetic engine and gear oil, clean air filter and tires at the proper PSI and alignment and that's the best I can do. I accelerate conservatively, but the posted speed is 70 MPH on the highways I drive, so I nominally cruise at 75 MPH.
The sticker on the window of the Atlantic blue 2.5i showed the point of final assembly as Lafayette, but the engine and transmission assembly points as "Japan".
gearhead4 Posts: 122I can validate 30+ MPG in a Legacy.
I exceeded 30 mpg during several trips in my 2000 Legacy with MT. One trip averaged 32 mpg. I wish I could say the same for my 2003 Legacy with the Automatic trans. The best I have seen with the 2003 auto is 28 MPG. I would gladly trade even for a manual transmission.
j3studio Posts: 27Folks,
I'm asking for a reality check on whether a 2005 2.GT Ltd Wagon with the 5A would be a good idea for us as our next daily driver. Let me describe our current situation:
1) Married, no kids and none on the way
2) Current daily driver is a 1999 Chrysler 300M, now with 85,000 miles. It was our only car when we bought it, so it served our sporting pretensions, but those are now served by a brace of Corvettes
3) The wife does most of the daily driving and really wants 4-wheel drive this time (we live in Pennsylvania). She also likes performance (the Chrysler has 253 bhp) and handling (it's got the Performance Handling Package, which has a fairly European feel)
4) We lug the usual homeowner stuff around in the 300M and use the fold-down seats a lot, so we eliminated the Legacy sedan from consideration when we found out that it didn't have a fold-down seat
5) I've gotton accustomed to the 'near-luxury' of the Chrysler, so, if we got the Legacy, we would buy it loaded
6) I realize that the Subaru is a fairly big change, which is why I'd really like to make the right decision - we'd love to have our next daily driver for 6 or 7 years.
What do you think? Any and all advice appreciated...
kevin111 Posts: 991In terms of performance, the Legacy GT will be far superior to the 300m. Even though both have similar power, the Legacy GT will be faster, with 0-60 times over 2 seconds faster than the 300m (0-60 in 7.8 secs). Also, the GT will be more nimble and a better handler (even the loaded wagon will be about 200 lbs. less than the 300M).
Ride quality should be good in the GT (per the Edmunds review).
Personally, I want to see what some of the car magazines say, as well as Consumer Reports before I decide, but it looks like the Legacy will be a serious contender in the mid-level sedan arena, if not a home run.

stickguy Posts: 25,705Goes to show the negative impact of the Outback (raised up, more "off-roadish" tires) on gas mileage. Just compare the EPA sticker on an '04 standard wagon vs. an outback to see what the relative difference you should expect is.
At least 25 is much better than you would get from an Exploder or other real SUV.
2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport (mine), 2013 Acura RDX AWD (wife's) and 2015 Jetta Sport (daughter's)
subewannabe Posts: 403The Legacy should be just the ticket for you. To get comparable performance, features and AWD you would need to spend at least $10,000 more to move up to an Audi S4 or BMW 3 series wagon with AWD. Since I assume the Corvettes stay home on snow days, you might consider getting a second set of rims and keep one set shoed with true winter radials, e.g., Bridgestone Blizzaks for a go-anywhere vehicle for November through March and the second set with true performance tires for April through October.The Legacy GT suspension set-up, low CG and grippy low-profile tires will make you forget the "European" feel of a 300M before you get out of the first curve, even with the 5 speed SportShift Auto. Happy shopping!

I know this might sound like a cop out. Like a really horrible excuse for giving up on life, but I was so sure... My gut was telling me that the world was going to end, maybe not literally, but the world I knew, that we knew, was going to be over after December 21, 2012. I have spent this entire year truly believing that there was no reason to worry about the future or plan anything or do anything because the world was going to end, in one way or another. Alien invasion, zombie apocalypse, war of the worlds, everyone for themselves, Gaia turning on us by throwing every kind of natural disaster at our feet, leaving us homeless, food-less water-less and in some places, clean airless.
This is what I wanted. Waking up was so hard because nothing is changing, nothing has changed in so long. I feel that unless something changes in our world as a whole, something big and life changing, nothing will ever get better. I won't ever get better. I feel suck in the same place I've been for 5 years now, mentally and emotionally, and I don't know how to get loose.

Price check for used board
3 Attachment(s)
Looking at this board, CWB absolute 140. The seller thinks it is a 2008, I could only find the same graphics on a 2003. Is $200 too much if it is a 2003? Comes with large Belmont boots. Thanks for your help.
Yes..... Far too much.
I'm looking to sell my 2013 Ronix ONE ATR 146cm for $250 if you're interested.
Yep. Far too much for a used board. I would be hard pressed to spend that for a 2011 board.
I'd be shooting for half that if I were you.
Yep worth about 100 bucks those bindings really arent worth anything.
Tell him to keep the bindings and buy the board for $100? That is a great board and hard to find.
Definitely not a 2008.
I have a 2012 CWB Faction 144cm that I can sell you for $150 + shipping. I used it only for last year as I am on a new setup now.

Wal-Mart CEO Stepping Down After 9 Years
H. Lee Scott steps down this weekend as CEO of Wal-Mart. He's been the head of the world's largest retailer for nine years. When Scott took over Wal-Mart back in 2000, the company was under attack for low wages, the lack of health insurance for many workers and its seeming indifference to its impact on the environment.
RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
It's Morning Edition from NPR News. Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. And tomorrow, one of the most powerful men in corporate America steps down.
(Soundbite of speech)
Mr. H. LEE SCOTT (President and Chief Executive Officer, Wal-Mart): When people say, what do you want your legacy to be, I, you know, I started out as assistant manager of the truck fleet. I don't give a lot of thought to legacy.
MONTAGNE: For the last nine years, H. Lee Scott has run the world's biggest retail.
(Soundbite of Wal-Mart advertisement)
(Soundbite of music)
Unidentified Announcer: Life can be pricey. Wal-Mart isn't.
MONTAGNE: When Lee Scott took over Wal-Mart back in 2000, the company was under attack for its low wages, its lack of health insurance for many workers, and its seeming indifference to its impact on the environment. Wal-Mart was vilified and demonized. Still, CEO Lee Scott grew and grew the company.
Mr. CHARLES FISHMAN (Author, "The Wal-Mart Effect"): During Lee Scott's tenure, the sales at Wal-Mart have more than doubled, from $166 billion to what will be $400 billion this year. The number of stores outside the U.S. has gone from fewer than 1,000 to 3,500.
MONTAGNE: Charles Fishman wrote the book "The Wal-Mart Effect."
Mr. FISHMAN: Sixty-five percent of Americans live within five miles of a Wal-Mart. Ninety-four percent of Americans live within 15 miles of a Wal-Mart. Even if you don't shop at Wal-Mart, wherever you shop, that store is competing with Wal-Mart. So, there's no question that Wal-Mart itself touches the life of every single American, every day.
MONTAGNE: Even if Americans have barely heard the name Lee Scott. It's not a name that trips off the tongue. Most people don't really know much about him.
Mr. FISHMAN: Right. Wal-Mart is fairly faceless, and I think for a long time, that was purposeful. I guess people knew who Sam Walton was. But Lee Scott himself, I think, has been a very effective leader inside the company. He has changed the way the company thinks about itself and relates to the world. Wal-Mart was so insular when Lee Scott took over. They essentially did not talk to reporters; they did not have a Washington lobbying office. And he actually listened to the criticism and instead of bunkering in, which has been Wal-Mart's practice for 40 years, and ignoring the criticism - covering their ears and just building new stores - he actually had the wherewithal to stop and say, well, maybe if we can turn down the screaming, there might actually be something there for us to learn from.
Mr. FRED KRUPP (Former President, Environmental Defense Fund): You know, it's probably a little bit of an overblown analogy, but I almost think of Lee Scott as a Gorbachev leading glasnost, because Lee was this figure that opened Wal-Mart's walls up to the outside and changed how they did business.
MONTAGNE: That's Fred Krupp; he was once among the fiercest critics of Wal-Mart, as head of the group the Environmental Defense Fund. That's past tense, because he now works closely with the giant retailer, and therein lies an interesting tale about Lee Scott. A couple of years ago, the CEO joined the environmentalist on a trip to the white mountains of New Hampshire. Lee Scott wanted to learn about climate change. What he learned moved Scott to throw his company's weight behind energy-efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs. That was the beginning of Wal-Mart's shift towards becoming a greener corporation.
(Soundbite of Wal-Mart advertisement)
(Soundbite of music)
Unidentified Woman: This is a GE compact fluorescent light bulb. Didn't cost a lot because I got it at Wal-Mart. It can save me $47 in electricity costs...
MONTAGNE: Lee Scott also realized he could make money selling affordable energy-saving products, and by cutting energy costs inside his own company. After 30 years at Wal-Mart, he wasn't about to change Sam Walton's focus on keeping prices and costs low. In a recent speech, Lee Scott recalled one manager's meeting with his old boss and company founder, Sam Walton.
(Soundbite of speech)
Mr. SCOTT: And he'd get around that room and he looked at me, and he said, Scott - so, you knew it was coming - what in the world happened to your driver uniform costs this month? Normally, it was $1,000, it was $1,500. Five hundred - this a billion-dollar company, and he managed the details of that business.
MONTAGNE: Lee Scott is still beholden to Walton family members who control the board, and that's why Andy Stern, head of the Service Employees International Union, continues to wage war with the company over pay and health insurance. So, while environmentalist Fred Krupp describes Scott as a transformative leader, Stern believes he missed his chance for greatness.
Mr. ANDY STERN (President, Service Employees International Union): Where Lee Scott never really came out of his Arkansas background to appreciate is, the leader of the largest private-sector company in the world has an opportunity and an ability to set a different standard in the marketplace. And he chose to keep making his $15,000 an hour, and kept those workers at $10.68 an hour. And if he had said, I am going to share more, I'm going to have a different business model - and I think that is the missing link for Lee Scott's greatness.
MONTAGNE: As for the CEO himself, a couple of weeks ago, Lee Scott had this to say about his departure.
Mr. SCOTT: I want to be able to walk out of my office on the 31st of January, I want to turn out the light, and be able to believe that Sam Walton would be proud of what myself and my team accomplished.
Mr. FISHMAN: Sam Walton would have to rub his eyes many times to try and understand the company that he left behind just 16 years ago. It's 10 times the size it was then. There was one overseas store when he died. Overseas sales are now twice what the whole company was when he died. So, I'm sure Sam Walton would be proud. I think he'd be puzzled. I think he'd need a tour.
MONTAGNE: Author Charles Fishman.
Mr. FISHMAN: I think the question is, if the legacy that Lee Scott set in motion in the last three or four years really takes root inside Wal-Mart, I think we'll look back 15 years from now and say, Wal-Mart has become one of the most important sustainability forces in the country. So, his legacy remains unclear, but he has laid a really interesting foundation for a new agenda for Wal-Mart.
MONTAGNE: Lee Scott steps down tomorrow and on Monday, Wal-Mart's new CEO will be another little-known company insider, Mike Duke. He's been running Wal-Mart's international operations. That's a division of the company that barely existed when Lee Scott took over, but is now seen as critical to the future of Wal-Mart.

Never call someone before 9am or after 9pm.
Buy the orange properties in Monopoly.
Make the little things count.
Always wear a bra at work.
There is a fine line between looking sultry and slutty. Find it.
You're never too old to need your mom.
Ladies, if you make the decision to wear heels on the first date, commit to keeping them on and keeping your trap shut about how much your feet hurt.
Know the words to your national anthem.
Your dance moves might not be the best, but I promise making a fool of yourself is more fun than sitting on the bench alone.
Smile at strangers.
Make goals.
Being old is not dictated by your bedtime.
If you have to fight, punch first and punch hard.

some of these I've always done and some of these I should have done. All are very wise.ReplyDelete
Always wear a bra at work. If I had done that I may have lost my job. I taught little kids and I worked for a Catholic Board. I don't think that they would have like that. Ha,ha,ha. Some very interesting comments this morning Sandee.ReplyDelete
Have a great day my good friend. See ya.
Those are all terrific. Love the one 'Buy the orange properties on Monopoly' I will remember that one. I love to smile at strangers. I go to the Walmart sometimes just to get someone to smile. Sure makes one feel good. Sandee, you and your family have one great Tuesday.ReplyDelete
Some amazing advice here...advice that everyone should follow. Well I am guilty of not wearing a bra at work though.ReplyDelete
Bedtime is early here. That's because wake-up time is early. The young dogs start walking all over the peeps at daybreak. In the summer, that's early-we don't go on daylight savings time.ReplyDelete
Another fine set but one I wouldn't do and that is wear a bra at work LOLReplyDelete
Have a bralesstastic day :-h
Worldly wise words, especially I enjoyed the one on spending time with grand parents and knowing about sister's boyfriend.ReplyDelete
Have a great day!
Lots of good advice. And if stevebethere wears a bra to work, I must go take pictures, and blog about it. :DReplyDelete
So much wisdom... I don't know where to start. Gosh, I liked so many. Next time make it harder to pick just one or three ;-)ReplyDelete
Fabulous advice! I love this..."Your dance moves might not be the best, but I promise making a fool of yourself is more fun than sitting on the bench alone.'ReplyDelete
Have a wonderful day buddy-
And big hugs to you-
I've done some of these but now know not too! Good thing I work from home! :DReplyDelete
Happy Tortie Tuesday Sandee! Smooches to Little Bit!
I'm feeling real smart after all these great tips!ReplyDelete
Faythe @ GrammyMouseTails
The teacher told us not to talk once - I did - had to wear gum on my nose all afternoon - can you imagine that these days? See I was even Chatty back then.ReplyDelete
Learn to change a tire. That came in handy with me several times. Good skill to know.ReplyDelete
Excellent stuff indeed. If only all of this wisdom was learned by today's kids!ReplyDelete
Big hugs, honey...
Dear Sandee, These are priceless. I love so many of these; especially the first one.ReplyDelete
Thank you dear. Catherine xo
Good advice for adults and kids.ReplyDelete
Thank you for stopping by my little corner of the blogosphere. All comments are very much appreciated.

Missing information in slides
Every time when I add a (image) slide to the slideshow, I have to manually fill in the URL of the image. Also for these slideshow's, every image needs to be opened in a new window. This means I have to go through every slide changing this information.
Can this be automatic? The URL of the image can be found in the information part of each individual image.
I was hoping that I could find this in the general settings, but no luck.
Am I missing something, or is this just not implemented?

The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, in the 19 northern states and Abuja yesterday declared that no force or evil plan could stop tomorrow's Christmas celebration in the region.
This is coming just as anxiety mounts in the North over the safety of Christians in the region as they celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.
CAN, while calling on security agencies to protect Nigerians during the celebration, appealed to Muslim leaders to prevail on the Boko Haram Islamic sect not to attack Christians during the Yuletide.
Speaking with National Mirror in Kaduna, Northern CAN Public Relations Officer, Mr. Sunday Oibe, said Christians would not accept the killings of their members on Christmas Day, "which is a day of peace."
The association noted that the continued attack on Christians and churches was deliberate, adding, however, that it was impossible to wipe out Christianity from the region.
Oibe also called on Christians to go about their normal activities during the Christmas and to worship God without fear.
CAN appealled to the Federal Government to wipe out terrorism in the country, while expressing the fear that the present situation might degenerate into a religious war "which Nigeria may not survive."
The CAN spokeman said: "We are appealing to Boko Haram to shelve their threat on Christians in the North during this Christmas celebration because they claimed to be working for Islam but Muslims celebrated their Sallah and there was no Christian attack against them.
"We are also appealing to a respected Muslim leader in Nigeria, Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa'ad Abubakar III, together with good Muslim imams to please preach their message that would reach Boko Haram to drop their threat because Christians in the North are running out of patience
"We can't take the killings of our brothers, children and women in churches during Christmas anymore.
"This period is special to Christians all over the world; it is a period of peace. But if Boko Haram goes ahead with their planned attack, according to security warning in the newspapers, it will be a declaration of war against Christians in Nigeria.
"We are appealing to them because Christians have nothing against Muslims.
"The continued onslaught against Christians and churches across the northern states is clearly some of the deliberate but impossible attempts to wipe out Christians from the region
"We are assuring all Christians that the church will not allow that to happen. We are once again calling on the Muslim Immams and ulama in Nigeria to live up to their task by calling on all Islamic sects in the country to have respect for human lives and stop these attacks and killings.
"We fear that the situation may degenerate into religious war which Nigeria may not survive as a country.
"We call on Christians to worship their God in heaven without fear because no force or evil will stop Christianity in the North and Nigeria at large. Every Christian should go ahead with their church activities, that is our message to them.
"While commending security agencies for their good work, we call on them to protect the lives of Christians and other Nigerians during and after this season."
The leadership of the association in Kano State has also appealed to its members in the state not to be overwhelmed by the state of insecurity "as the Almighty God is in total control."
This is as churches in the troubled commercial city recorded depleted congregations during the Sunday service, following Saturday's attempt to bomb the offices of two communication firms, MTN and Airtel.
The attacks, in which the two suspected bombers were blown up, were believed to have created panic across the Christian community, resulting in the apparent boycott of Sunday's service.
Chairman of the Christian body in Kano, Bishop Ransom Bello, in a text message to National Mirror urged Christians to maintain a high spirit and believe that security is of the Lord.
He said: "To shame the enemies and evil men in our midst, we should come out en masse on Christmas and offer prayers to commemorate the birth of our Saviour."
The CAN boss stated that from all indications and communications between his office and security agents, the Christmas celebration would be marked "in an atmosphere of peace and love."
He quoted security chiefs in the state as assuring that necessary steps had been taken to beef up security during the celebrations.
Bello, however, admitted that there were isolated cases of attacks, but noted that such were not enough to justify boycott of Christmas service.
The security situation in Kano has heightened a few days to the Christmas and New Year festivities, with huge presence of soldiers and riot policemen in the streets of Kano.
Our correspondent reports that apart from heavy vehicular patrol by the Joint Task Force, JTF, police armoured personnel carriers were spotted in sensitive locations in Kano, the state capital.
The Kano State Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim Idris, has repeatedly warned potential troublemakers to keep off the streets of Kano or face the consequences of their action.
He confirmed that Kano had been fortified with adequate security arrangement that would guarantee a hitch-free Christmas and New Year celebrations.

Acupuncture in West LA
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is one aspect of Chinese Medicine. This Holistic Medicine also includes nutrition, breath work, movement, and massage. Chinese Medicine is a unique form of medicine as the mind, body and spirit connection are ingrained into its principles and philosophy. This medicine like nature is constantly seeking homeostasis in the body. When there is a misalignment it breeds dis-ease in its various manifestations. Application of the holistic elements of Chinese Medicine can bring the body back into a state of wellness.
Acupuncture is applied by inserting thin sterile stainless steel needles into various acupuncture points in the body. These points are located on energetic channels or meridians that run along our body. Meridians are quite complex as each is associated with a variety of functions. Though simply put each is associated with an organ and an emotion.
By manipulating these acupuncture points with either needles, essential oils or pressure it shifts the energy (qi) of the body. It creates an energetic pull that provokes the body to initiate a healing response. Physiologically, acupuncture causes the brain to release serotonin (our "feel good" mood enhancer chemical) and natural endorphins into our system. These chemicals relax your nervous system, allow more oxygen and blood flow into your organ systems and provides a sense of relaxation.
Ted Kaptchuk, The Web That Has No Weaver, explains the basis of Chinese medicine. He writes: "The Chinese method is based on the idea that no single part can be understood except in its relation to the whole…If a person has a complaint or symptom, Chinese medicine wants to know how the symptom fits into the patient's entire being and behavior. Illness is situated in the context of a person's life and biography."
Though Carine Camara Acupuncture specializes in emotional and mental health Chinese Medicine treats a full spectrum of conditions.
Your physical health and symptoms will improve with each session and your awareness (and love!) of self will grow as your commitment to your health continues. You will experience renewed energy throughout your days, significantly decreased stress, and you will have new and effective tools to confidently employ on your own if new symptoms arise.
Here are some of the health conditions that can be treated with Chinese Medicine:
Mental Health
- Insomnia
- Anxiety
- Clinical Depression
- Grief, anger, sadness
- Fatigue
Pain Management
- Back and neck pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Sinusitis

- Sciatica

Friday Jolt: Gay Marriage and the Democratic Platform; DelBene and the WEA
Today's Winner: Suzan DelBene
The Washington Education Association, the state's teachers' union, endorsed Suzan DelBene in the crowded race for the 1st Congressional District.
Mary Lindquist, head of the WEA, said in a statement, "Suzan DelBene understands how crucial it is for us to invest in K-12 and higher education, both for the future of our students and the future of our country. We need more leaders like her in Congress."
The endorsement is big news for DelBene in advance of the weekend's Washington State Labor Council endorsement meeting.
Today's Loser: Gay Marriage Platform
Following up this morning's Fizz, where we had the news that Washington State Democratic Party Chair Dwight Pelz had taken his name off the list of state party chairs who endorsed gay rights group Freedom to Marries "Democrats Say 'I Do'" campaign to make gay marriage part of the national Democratic Party platform, we asked Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jay Inslee if he wanted Washington delegates to fight to make it part of the platform. (Pelz says he supports gay marriage and R-74, the gay marriage measure, but felt tricked by the group).
Washington State, after all, is ground zero right now for gay marriage and the voice of our Democratic Party leaders is sure to hold sway with the national party.
Inslee's spokeswoman Jaime Smith told us: "Jay has consistently supported marriage equality, will be voting to uphold Washington's new marriage equality law in November, and would support making it part of the national platform."
As for endorsing Freedom to Marry, the campaign Pelz disavowed, Smith said: "That I don't know specifically."

A season removed from failing to make the NCAA field for just the second time in 19 seasons, Sean Miller's Arizona Wildcats are back with a talented core, led by seniors Solomon Hill and Xavier transfer Mark Lyons. Miller was able to reach the regional final in only his second year in Tucson. Can he and his talented Wildcats do it for the second time in three years?
ESPN Insider has your answers, as Joe Lunardi has enlisted a team of Bracketologists to compile advanced metrics, key scouting intel and best- and worst-case tournament scenarios for all 68 teams, in order to help you make smart picks in your bracket. Plus, as Lunardi fills out his bracket, he'll give you his prediction on how each team will fare.
Lunardi's Logic
Which Arizona team will show up Thursday in Salt Lake City? The one with Final Four talent or the one that went just 5-5 down the stretch? I fear it will be the latter and that Belmont is in position for a big upset. The flip side is that the Wildcats have the personnel to win a region, especially one as weak as the West. In other words, fear the Wildcats if they can escape Belmont.
Best wins: San Diego State, Florida, Miami
Worst losses: USC

500g waxy new potatoes such as Ratte or Charlotte
200ml freshly made mayonnaise
2 heaped tbsp drained and washed capers
a bunch of chives, chopped
1 tbsp chopped parsley
the juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp English mustard
450g cooked peas
225g cooked ham or pork, chopped
a head of soft green lettuce, such as a Butterhead or Little Gem, chopped into small pieces
Wash the potatoes and place in a pan of boiling water. Simmer until fully cooked. Peel quickly while still warm. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. In a bowl, put together the mayonnaise, capers, herbs, lemon juice and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Place the dressing in a large bowl and add the peas, the ham (or pork) and the lettuce. Add more seasoning if required, and heap gently on a serving dish.
Hamish Anderson's wine choice 2007 Soave Superiore, Tamellini, Veneto, Italy £8.34, Goedhuis & Co (goedhuis.com).
There are a number of strong flavours here: chives, capers, mustard etc. White is my preference, but avoid anything oaky that would clash. Instead crack open this floral, nutty Soave from Tamellini, one of the producers leading the resurgence of this much-abused region.

Jilted ASBO thug jailed for trying to carve initials into ex-lover's FACE
A JEALOUS boyfriend who tried to carve his initials into his ex-girlfriend's FACE has been jailed.
Serial troublemaker Kye Green – who has racked up more than 100 convictions aged 26 – kidnapped Jade Kershaw and held her prisoner during a "terrifying" ordeal.
Green threatened to hack his initials into Ms Kershaw's face with a razor blade after becoming convinced she had cheated on him.
The cokehead wanted to etch a permanent reminder on his partner's face after their six-month romance hit the rocks.
Ms Kershaw was "petrified" and told how she had "never felt so scared in my whole life".
Green achieved notoriety in 2003 after becoming the first person to get an ASBO in North East Lincs aged just 14.
Despite later insisting he had turned a new leaf, he has found himself back in the dock exactly 12 years later.
His past offences include attempted robbery and assaults on prison officers in a young offenders' institution.
Prosecutor Jeremy Evans told Grimsby Crown Court: "He (Green) accused her of being unfaithful and, despite her denials, told her he would carve his initial in her face to remind her of him every time she looked at her own reflection.
"He told her that no one else would be allowed to be with her."
Green also warned he would slash Ms Kershaw's throat and threatened to beat her with an iron bar.
And the violent thug BURNED her shoes and clothes out of "spite", the court heard.
""He (Green) told her that no one else would be allowed to be with her.""Prosecutor Jeremy Evans
She managed to escape with minor injuries including cuts and bruises after he popped out to get some cigarettes.
The hour-long attack took place at Green's home in Grimsby, Lincs, last August 17.
Ms Kershaw later withdrew her support for the prosecution but did not deny the allegations.
Green admitted kidnap and was jailed for two-and-a-half years.
Russell Davies, for Green, conceded that the use of a razor blade to threaten to carve Miss Kershaw's face was "particularly terrifying" for her.
"He believed genuinely that this young girl had started another relationship."
They were "once in love" but he became "desperate" because he was losing her, Mr Davies said, adding Green had "taken cocaine in an escalating way".
Speaking after the sentence, Mr Evans said in a statement for the CPS: "This man presents a serious and significant risk of harm to women.
"He is a violent, domestic abuser who intimidated his victim and sought to assert ultimate control over her when she ended their relationship.
"The victim displayed great courage and presence of mind in managing to escape from this situation and report the matter to the police.
"I hope that the sentence handed down, and the knowledge that this dangerous individual is now behind bars, is of some comfort to her."

This is my first report in my "how moving works online" series looking specifically at how moving my utilities work.
Our utility provider is Entergy that also covers portions of Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas. Entergy has developed sites for each of the areas that they cover, so I used the Entergy-Arkansas site. Once you arrive on their home page it's pretty straight forward to find the new service -residential option in a drop down menu under the home heading. It took me to a three page Residential Service Application where I had to enter all kinds of information about our new home and myself. When I finished, the form emailed me with an automated response and said I would get an official response within three days. The next day, I received another email from Entergy-Arkansas with no text, but two attachments (one in text and the other an RTF file). The text file contained the information I submitted and the RTF file which was a notification letter letting me know that they had me set-up. Only, I wasn't so sure that I was set-up because it contained information for approved applications and disapproved applications with parentheses giving directions as to what paragraphs to live in and which paragraphs to delete, but the letter did say to reply to the email if I had any questions and they would respond. So, I did reply with a couple of questions (like am I approved, is this set-up?) and they responded that everything was fine and I was all set to go.
Overall I would give their service a 5 out of 10 because it was easy to find and worked, but I don't think they have the whole work flow for their processing set-up yet.
I guess you could call this the mid-way report, because I can't tell you whether or not all the information made to the people who will switch the electricity over to my name, but I think it's a good bet to assume they did it right, unless I chime in later letting you know more about the problem.
This is utilities in general because my new water provider, Central Arkansas Water, doesn't allow for online requests for new service. I had to actually call in and handle that, but it really only took me about five minutes.

did you succeed?
Hello there, I am wondering if you succeeded with your install? I am looking at OpenTaps myself now, and I find the install process is very poorly documented in my opinion. If you succeeded maybe you can help me, or maybe we can still work together on this.
Hope to hear from you.

Murdered woman's family unlikely to get answers after suspect dies
A murdered woman's family may never get some of their questions answered because police shot and killed the man who killed her.
Grand Prairie police shot Joshua Henry on Friday night after a domestic disturbance. He was out on bond and charged with killing his girlfriend, Fort Worth businesswoman Nicole Blahitka.
Police said Henry fought and struggled with the officer during the disturbance call. Several of Henry's neighbors said police were called because he was destroying property at the family's home.
Police said when the officer got there the officer was assaulted by Henry when he tried to stop him from going back inside the house.
Henry's mother didn't want to talk on Monday, but she called out across the lawn pointing out a memorial in the driveway where her son was shot.
Police records show Henry confessed to the killing -- something he later denied in jail.
Alex Kim is an attorney not associated with the case.
"A lot of the facts, lot of the evidence is going to die with the suspect," Kim said. "They may not have known this was a very volatile situation."
Blahitka was a prominent Fort Worth businesswoman who owned Lon Smith Roofing, the largest roofing company in the state. She was shot to death in her west Fort Worth home and her body was discovered by her 12-year old son and housekeeper.
Blahitka's family will likely never know exactly what happened the night she died.
"The family is not going to have the opportunity to look him in the eye, hear his story, to hear the defense or hear the entire evidence by the district attorney' office," Kim said.
The Tarrant County DA's office says they will dismiss the case since Henry has died.
Fort Worth police haven't said if this changes their investigation, although they have said previously that Henry was their only suspect.

The 2017 UTME forms are not yet on sale by JAMB. This is a note of caution coming from the authorities of The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to prospective candidates.
Candidates who are anticipating the 2017 for the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration are hereby being informed that JAMB has not started selling UTME forms. Please exercise patience and caution.
Dr Fabian Benjamin, the JAMB's Head of Media and Publicity, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) by telephone on Monday that the board would adequately sensitise the public before the sale begin.
"I want the public to be patient. We are putting finishing touches to the arrangements for a hitch free outing.

"We need to ensure that prospective candidates do the right thing and get their results without problems.
"So we want to appeal to prospective candidates to be patient as we will soon begin sale of the forms,'' Benjamin said.
He warned the general public and prospective candidates not to fall prey to the activities of fraudsters who might lure them into buying fake documents. (NAN)

Episode #139 – "Addy does not equal yellow."Wednesday, October 19th, 2011
After being away for a few weeks, the guys return for two hours of spooky fun. "It's not that I wasn't listening, it's that I don't care." Gabe really wants an umbrella. The guys explain how to literally get away with murder. (Can a podcast summary be used as evidence?) Bad callers are well handled because Addy and Gabe are professionals. Are migraines real? Addy is warming up to the Mac. Danni had some brain issues. "LSD is a tough drug, man." Gators has nothing to say, but he calls in anyway. Tomnik checks in from the road to discuss self-driving trucks, road whores and being polite to police officers. "Look, we're both armed." Tune in next show for the McRib challenge!

This post is long overdue but I wanted to share a new favorite from Sephora, Dr. Brandt's 3-D Filler Mask.
The mask actually stays on your face as a treatment and you do not wash it off. I really like this concept because unlike others where you wear for a certain period of time and wash it off, this stays on your face and continues to improve the appearance of your skin throughout the day. I also like that several masks are coming with a brush now, makes it more sanitary and easier to apply.
So, you take the brush and you apply in a 'triangle' movement, starting at your chin and then you can apply it where you see fine lines/wrinkles, etc. You apply it after cleansing your face and before moisturizer or primer since you want the layer of treatment applied directly to your skin.
I can honestly say that this is not a product that is full of hype but it actually works to revolumize, reshape and fill where you need it.
If you are interested, here is my review on the exfoliator and the primer which I use religiously.
Keep in touch!
