Ahead of the December deadline for airlines to commence e-ticketing, Virgin Nigeria Plc says it has started the process on all its domestic routes.
Mr Larry Agose, the airline\'s Director of Communications, made this known yesterday in a statement in Ikeja. Agose, who said the e-ticketing process commenced at the weekend, announced the relocation of the airlineÃÆÃâÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃââÃÆÃâÃââÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¡ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃâìÃÆÃâÃââÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¾ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââs corporate headquarters.
The headquarters, formally at Ark House on Victoria Island, had since moved to Etiebet\'s Place on Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, Ikeja.
The director noted that e-ticketing on all of the airlineÃÆÃâÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃââÃÆÃâÃââÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¡ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃâìÃÆÃâÃââÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¾ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââs domestic routes was part of efforts to bring its operations closer to the people and make for more customer-friendliness.
He explained that the relocation of the headquarters was necessitated by the need for better coordination of activities, as well as closeness to its operational base at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Ikeja.
He quoted the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Conrad Clifford, as saying that the relocation was a fulfilment of a dream of the airline. Agose said airline has 1,000 employees, made up of 900 Nigerians and 100 expatriates, among whom are 70 pilots and 200 cabin crew.
ÃÆÃâÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃââÃÆÃâÃââÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¡ÃÆââ¬Å¡ÃâìÃÆÃââââ¬Ã¦ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬ÅOur major achievement as we move out of Ark Towers is our interline agreements with other major airlines, including Virgin Atlantic, North American Airlines, Air France/KLM, Emirates and Qatar Airways,\'\' Agose said. - ThisDay

Life can be messy. It can be tough and frustrating when you feel like you're a million miles away from where you thought you would be. You know you need to make a change. But change can be a real pain in the ass – how do you know if you're making the right decision? There are so many possibilities and it feels overwhelming!

I believe that you already know that you're capable of so much more! That you are more than capable of being happy and living your dream. That's why you're here reading this now, you're searching for an answer that will help you move away from that anxious feeling in your heart and towards a life that is truly yours.
Yep, I said it! I believe it with all my heart because I've experienced it personally and I have seen it through my work with private clients. And through coaching, I get the chance to help you discover this radical concept of happiness for yourself!
So tell me, is this what you want?

- To spend your personal resources of time, money, energy and love on the things in your life that you actually care about.
- To realise your potential and strengths in pursuit of passionate work.
- To have a clear life vision and focus so that you finally feel like you're self-directing your own life.
- To learn how to say no without feeling guilty and be able to deal with negative emotions.

With the No. 10 overall pick in the 2011 NFL draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars (via trade with Washington Redskins) select Mizzou quarterback Blaine Gabbert.
The Jaguars gave up their 2011 second-round to move up six spots and draft Gabbert, who still have David Garrard under contract for a lot of money. Personally, I think Garrard can be very effective if given the right pieces and believe the Jaguars would have been better served drafting anywhere on defense rather than moving up for a quarterback.
Jack Del Rio has been pushed out of the decision-making process in the war room, so he's probably not happy with this pick. He likely would have preferred to go defense rather than drafting a quarterback who will likely sit for a year or two.
But Gabbert is a Jaguar, Jacksonville is down a second-round pick, and the defense will continue to struggle.

The CO-MR GEN 2+ QS MG Day/Night Vision Medium-Range Clip-On System from Armasight is a versatile system that can be used while shooting at night over the middle distance.
The CO-MR Medium-Range Clip-On System allows you to convert your existing day scope to night vision and provides excellent target acquisition and aiming capabilities for the demanding sports shooters, varmint hunters, military, law enforcement, or security personnel. Built using the Night Vision technology, this Clip-On System eliminates the requirement of removing your existing day scope from your rifle, to replace it with a dedicated night vision sight (which would also involve re-zeroing). This CO-MR can be simply mounted in front of your own standard day optical sight.
The CO-MR Clip-On System is bore-sighted to tolerances of less than 1 MOA, thus no re-zeroing is required. It allows the user to maintain consistent eye relief and shooting position. Moreover, as the user views his own day scope's reticle, no re-training is necessary. A wireless remote control unit (sold separately) can be placed anywhere on the user's weapon that is convenient, allowing activation of the CO-MR quickly without any fuss.
Recommended for use with day scopes of up to 6 to 7X magnification, the Armasight CO-MR is equipped with a locking (but quick-disconnect) mounting system which provides the user with an easy and quick way to attach or detach the CO-MR on a standard weaver or a Picatinny rail.
- Simple and quick conversion of daytime scope to night vision
- Mounts in front of any daytime scope, with no re-zeroing required
- Powered by a single alkaline 1.5V AA or 3V CR123A lithium battery
- Low battery indicator
- Bright light indicator
- Manual brightness control
- Quick-release mount
- Bright light cut-off system
- Automatic shut-off system
- Mil standard compliant

Product Information
- Doc McStuffins Talk & Trace Clipboard from VTech
- Part of the Doc McStuffins brand
- We recommend this product for ages 2 and up
- 2 AAA batteries required TTPM trusts
What It Is
The Disney Junior Doc McStuffins Talk & Trace Clipboard is part of VTech's Preschool Learning series toy line. The clipboard features a magnetic drawing surface, a slide eraser, an attached stylus for drawing and tracing, and three button modes. A fourth mode can also be activated when one of the three included stencils is attached to the clipboard. Once you've turned on the clipboard, you can interact with Doc and her friends. When you enter each mode of play, instructions will also be given.
In Stuffy's Scribbles mode, Doc encourage you to draw anything you want. Sound effects will play as you draw or scribble, and Doc will offer words of encouragement such as "Great drawing!"
In Musical Drawing mode, keep drawing to keep the music playing for Lambie. When you stop drawing the music stops playing too.
In Trace with Hallie mode, insert one of the three detachable stencils and help Hallie take notes by tracing the different letters and numbers featured on the stencils. As you trace the letters, the clipboard will announce the letter being traced. Trace over it again and it will state an activity or healthy food that begins with that letter.
The last activity mode is Healthy Drawing mode. As an aspiring doctor, Doc is all about encouraging your little ones to eat healthy foods and being active. Listen for instructions on what healthy object to draw. Clear your screen and press the healthy drawing button again for a new item to draw.
Is It Fun?
This is a fun interactive toy for Doc McStuffins fans can use for roleplay while also learning along with Doc, her best friends Stuffy and Lambie, and her nurse Hallie the Hippo. The activity modes Stuffy's Scribbles and Musical Drawing are more open-ended, encouraging kids to be creative, while modes such as Trace with Hallie are more educational and teach kids how to correctly write different letters and numbers.
Who It's For
The Disney Junior Doc McStuffins Talk & Trace Clipboard is for Doc McStuffins fans ages 2–5.
What To Be Aware Of
Press down firmly with the stylus in order for the screen to register the device and make your designs and letters visible.
Sometimes when tracing the numbers in Trace with Hallie mode, we found tracing the bottom of a number can register the number below it on the screen, which for beginner learners may cause a bit of confusion.
The toy will automatically power-down after several minutes of inactivity.
Two AAA batteries are included but they are for demo purposes only.

There are a lot of common mistakes people make when signing up for Social Security.
To prevent that from happening, a local credit union is holding a workshop to cover everything you need to know.
Information includes the penalty that you receive if you do not sign up for Medicare when you are supposed to, from the benefits that a spouse and children can receive.
Ryan Miracle, a financial adviser with DuPont Community Credit Union, stresses that you need to get the information about your situation and not make decisions based on what other people have done.
He said there is a 25 percent loss from age 62 to full retirement, which for most people is anywhere from 65 to 67 years old.
Miracle said there is another gain if you delay until 70 years old.
He said at the workshop people will learn more about those penalties of not knowing your situation.
"Particularly with people who have been married previously, when not realizing that if they get married again before they turn 60, they won't have the ability claim on ex-spouse's income. Finding this out after the fact is a lot harder to fix than knowing it beforehand," said Miracle.
The workshop is full, but Miracle said you can meet with a financial adviser or contact your Social Security office for more information.

Training camp and the preseason are well underway, and while many teams around the league are trying to figure out how to replace players who are lost for the year, the Buccaneers are lucky enough to have almost everyone on the roster in one piece heading into preseason game number two. But there are still some injury notes to keep an eye on as the team prepares for kickoff against the Jets in a few weeks:
- According to 620 WDAE's report from training camp press conferences, the Buccaneers will be without multiple players as they head to Boston to take on the Patriots in practice and in a preseason game. The notable players who will not journey north with the rest of the team are Davin Joseph, who remains out as he recovers from a knee injury, Lawrence Tynes, who is suffering from a toe ailment which is allowing Derek Dimke to make a big statement about his right to the starting kicker job, and Chris Owusu and Danny Gorrer who both picked up minor injuries in the game against the Ravens and are being held back to ensure that they don't exacerbate a small injury in a meaningless game.
- Carl Nicks will likely return to action this week against the Patriots, but it won't be without pain. According to Mark Cook of Pewter Report, Nicks will play with pain in the future despite surgery to repair a torn plantar plate in his foot. Nicks is realistic about the situation, and knows that he'll have to tough it out, but hopefully for his sake the pain he is further and further removed from the time of the injury. There is optimism that Nicks will play this year, but it's not encouraging to know that a key member of the Buccaneers' offense is going to play though pain all year long.
- Kevin Ogletree left the field on Monday with an ankle injury, but according to the article from 620 WDAE linked above, it's not considered the be serious. The same can be said about Gerald McCoy's calf injury, and no other injuries were noted on the final day before heading up north. The Buccaneers appear to be focusing on holding back players with minor injuries to ensure no major injuries evolve from minor tweaks and strains.

Joe Paterno, the legendary former coach at Penn State University, has suffered health complications and is in serious condition ... this according to a rep for the Paterno family.
The spokesperson released a statement, saying in part, "Over the last few days Joe Paterno has experienced further health complications. His doctors have now characterized his status as serious."
His son Jay tweeted, "I appreciate the support & prayers. Joe is continuing to fight."
Another son, Scott, responded to a report that JoePa had passed, tweeting, "Dad is alive but in serious condition. We continue to ask for your prayers and privacy during this time."
Onward State, a student-run newspaper on campus, reported Saturday he had been taken off his respirator. The Citizens Voice, a newspaper in nearby Wilkes-Barre, PA, reported Paterno's wife Sue summoned close friends and longtime staff members to State College hospital.
Paterno was the coach at Penn State for 46 years, until he was famously fired by the school last November following the sexual abuse allegations against his former assistant coach, Jerry Sandusky.
Paterno died Sunday morning, the family announced. He was 85.
now im hearing he aint dead yet.....what's the deal harvey?
The whole Paterno/Sandusky scanal is proof that football is an opiate for small town hicks who have nothing else to look forward to. When people can overlook the fact that this guy was huge pedophile enabler and talk about what a "great guy" he was because he could coach a bunch of PED-pumped kids running around a field with a ball. Get a grip on what's important in life people!
CBS Reporting Reports of Joe Paterno's death refuted by family http://eye-on-collegefootball.blogs.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/24156338/34497800
Why would Paterno's lawyer say "Rumors of his death are not accurate" instead of, "He's alive."
Because Paterno is busy re-tooling his role and possibly speaking with authorities until he speaks to the Final authority.
Then he'll die...and it will be announced after the "i's" are dotted and the "t's" are crossed...and the relatives are sneaked out of the hospital.
That's why.
hmmm - now they are starting to remove articles about his death saying further investigation needed
AAAAAAAAAAAUGH! Okay so he's NOT dead.
May he rot in hell and get raped by the devil daily.
You know its really freaking sad that alot of people can make fun over someone passing.. This man as done wonders in college football. With the whole Sandusky thing. He did what he thought he was supposed to do and that was go to his superiors he cause he never had to deal with it before.. The School is what dropped the ball and so did Mike Q cause he said he witnessed it so instead of calling the police he called his daddy.. That man is the one to blame not Joe Pa..
CBS sports confirmed.... RIP Joe Pa
Burn in HELL!!
RIP Joe
ESPN just reported him as passing
Breaking News: Joe Paterno IS NOT dead - but his career and legacy is.
Ain't karma a bitch! Who cares!!
his son just tweeted and said his father is not dead, he is still hanging on and fighting

DUSTED releases a music video for "There Somehow", collaborating with Canadian Director Scott Cudmore. The song, which pairs BRIAN BORCHERDT's haunting vocals with a simple guitar, hints at frustration in communication. Cudmore's filmic take is equally vexed, showing a girl releasing all through a silent scream. It was premiered today via Stereogum.
Director Scott Cudmore had this to say about the new music video:
"Brian sent me the Dusted record last year and I immediately fell in love with it. It stayed in my car for almost the entire year. Something about the sounds and textures on that record, I guess they made me think that they could complement images and sounds of my own. The subject matter of 'There Somehow' and the short length of it really made sense with this material. It's a different kind of project – it's not a music video for a 'single' but more of a little film collaboration between two existing works."
BREEZE is the dream-pop side project of BELIEFS' Josh Korody. HDD is releasing the digital single "Paradise (in a while)" / "Repent" as a limited pressing of 100 cassette tapes with photography by Laura Lynn Petrick (www.lauralynnpetrick.com) and a music video by Adam Seward (Rituals).
The Release party is September 8th @ Day+Night Salon: Facebook Event Info

Neuroinflammation – An Early Event in Both the History and Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's DiseaseEikelenboom P. · van Exel E. · Hoozemans J.J.M. · Veerhuis R. · Rozemuller A.J.M. · van Gool W.A.
aDepartment of Neurology, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Departments of bPsychiatry, cPathology, and dClinical Chemistry and Alzheimer's Center, VU University Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Background: About hundred years ago, Oskar Fischer proposed that the senile plaques are the consequence of the deposition of a foreign substance that could induce an inflammatory response leading to an abnormal neuritic response of the surrounding neurons. Objectives: To show that the interest in inflammation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not only an early event in the history of AD but that inflammation is also an early event in the pathogenesis of AD. Methods: Evaluation of the neuropathological, epidemiological and genetic evidence for a role of inflammation early in the pathogenesis of AD. Results: Neuropathological studies show presence of activated microglia and inflammation-related mediators in the cerebral neocortex of autopsied patients with a low Braak stage for AD pathology. Prospective population-based cohort studies indicate that higher serum levels of acute phase proteins predict dementia. On a genetic level, it was found that the production capacity of proinflammatory cytokines after stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (a process that is under strong genetic control) is higher in offspring with a parental history of late-onset AD. Conclusion: Neuropathological studies show that a neuroinflammatory response in the cerebral neocortex parallels the early stages of AD pathology and precedes the late stage, tau-related pathology. Epidemiological and genetic studies indicate that systemic markers of the innate immunity are risk factors for late-onset AD.

The PHP interpreter is a heavy-duty CGI EXE (or SAPI module, depending on
configuration) that implements an HTML-embedded script language. A
vulnerability in PHP can be used to cause a denial of service in some cases.
PHP's install process on Apache requires a "/php/" alias to be created, as
it resolves CGI paths to a virtual. (e.g, /php/php.exe not C:\php\php.exe).
To solve the obvious security vulnerability posed by allowing PHP to run
from the web, the development team added a cgi.force_redirect option that is
enabled by default in Apache.
However, regardless of the force_redirect value, it is still possible to
load the binary without a script path:
(e.g, http://localhost/php/php)
A problem exists in PHP; specifically, it does not terminate when given no
command-line arguments. A consistent flow of requests like the above will
exhaust all resources for CGI/ASAPI on the server.
Exploit: http://www.murphy.101main.net/php-apache.c
I tried to make sure this would run on Linux/BSD, but no guarantees...
Compiles cleanly on WinMe with MSVC 6.0.

I knew I loved this show for a reason.
Dorian Solot, I Love Female Orgasm: An Extraordinary Orgasm Guide. (via feministhistorian)
I don't know if this is our cue to talk about our own experiences but - um, I figured out how to masturbate and even have an orgasm entirely on my own, at a relatively early age for girls, and I seriously seriously seriously thought I was the only one who did it. For the longest time. I didn't really know it was a thing that people did. I thought it was something I made up and I wasn't supposed to do it until I had a boyfriend to do it for me, so I had to keep it a big secret.
Which is, in retrospect, bonkers. And sad. We should be telling girls that it's normal and healthy and awesome to touch themselves and not leave them to figure it all out on their own.
(via rubyvroom)
There are people we should trust and confide in telling girls it's abnormal to masturbate. When I was thirteen my mother told me girls shouldn't masturbate, it was a thing only boys should do, and if a girl did masturbate her holes would close up. I knew this was false because I had been masturbating for awhile but now I wonder; what if I hadn't known better?
(via what-is-homework)
Her holes would close up? That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard.
(via feministhistorian)
My mom just kind of doesn't register masturbation as a thing girls do. She constantly walks into my room and bathroom without knocking, whether I'm in the shower or not. And when I complain it's "nothing she hasn't seen before" and I "don't do anything she doesn't need to see."(via pinkwrites) I think masturbation is something the younger generation accept but don't talk about as publicly as their male counterparts because of the social stigma that still exists. I know I discovered it years before I messed around with any guy, and most girls I know can take care of their own needs.

A march to take over a vacant building by members of the Occupy movement in Oakland, Calif., turned into a violent confrontation with the police on Saturday, leaving three officers injured and about 200 people arrested.
The clashes began just before 3 p.m. when protesters marched toward the vacant Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center, the police said, and began to tear down construction barricades. Officers ordered the crowd to disperse when protesters "began destroying construction equipment and fencing," the Oakland police said in a press release.
"Officers were pelted with bottles, metal pipe, rocks, spray cans, improvised explosive devices and burning flares, the police said." Officers responded with smoke, tear gas and beanbag projectiles. Twenty people were arrested.
Most of the arrests occurred in the evening, when large groups of people were corralled in front of the Downtown Oakland Y.M.C.A. on Broadway. At one point, one group of protesters broke into the City Hall building.
On a livestream broadcast on the Web site oakfosho.com, dozens of protesters could be seen sitting cross-legged in darkness on the street in front of the Y.M.C.A. Their hands appeared to be bound behind them, while police officers stood watch. Occasionally the protesters sang or cheered.
The events were part of a demonstration dubbed "Move-in Day," a plan by protesters to move into the vacant convention center and use it as a commune-like command center, according to the Web site occupyoaklandmoveinday.org.
"We were going to set up a community center," said Benjamin Phillips, 32, a member of the Occupy Oakland media team. "It would be a place where we could house people, feed people, do all the things that we have been doing."
In an open letter to Mayor Jean Quan on the Move-in Day site, the group threatened actions like "blockading the airport indefinitely, occupying City Hall indefinitely" and "shutting down the Oakland ports." Occupy protesters did briefly shut down the city's busy port in November."—The New York Times, "Occupy Protesters and Police Clash In Oakland" (via inothernews)

About the Author: Ambassador Eric Goosby serves as the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator.
This week I am traveling in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), a country that, while facing many challenges, is home to families who are seeking to build a better future. Health is an important part of a better future for the DRC, and preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) is a key example of a health care service that can strengthen families and communities.
PMTCT provides a triple benefit: in addition to preventing an infant from being infected with HIV, a program can also provide antiretroviral treatment to keep the mother alive, which in turn prevents her other children from being orphaned. So PMTCT is a smart investment — it has an impressive impact, and is strikingly cost-effective as well.
Led by the U.S. through the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the world has made dramatic progress on PMTCT over… more »

Keith Bogans, like fellow Cat Nazr Mohammed, has had a long career in the NBA. As the years go by his final year at Kentucky gets farther and farther away.
What a final year he had.
He averaged 15.6 points, 3.8 boards, and 2.7 assists.
The video above is from the previous year 2001-02 but Bogans still balled out and led the team in scoring en route to a win over the Florida Gators in The O'Dome.
Bogans was a key straw that stirred the drink for the 2002-03 team that won 26 games in a row. That team went 32-4.
They started off 6-3 after losing to 81-63 to Louisville on Dec. 28, 2002. They wouldn't taste defeat again until March 29, 2003 in the Elite Eight when they fell to Marquette 83-69.
That game is better known as the Dwayne Wade game. Flash had a coming out party for his coming out party at UK's expense. He dropped a triple-double that night.
Keith Bogans was hobbled by a high-ankle sprain.
Had he been healthy maybe the Marquette game plays out a little bit differently. Maybe not.
Bogans still went out there and put up 15 points, right on his average for that season. KB tends to get lost in the shuffle when we reminisce on great Kentucky players. He shouldn't be overlooked. He was a good one.

By the second day, everyone had made friends, cliques had been formed, ad people generally knew who they were more comfortable hanging with.
We went to China town (isn't it incredible how there's a china town literally everywhere you go)? Dinner was fab though, and it was nice sitting and chatting with Sirenya (South Africa), Silindile (Botswana), and Kaushalaya (Sri Lanka) – lovely, lovely people!
Somehow, I had a lot of work to deal with from home, and by the end of the day, my presentation was moved to the next day. Didn't mind much though, because our sessions would hold at the world-famous Peace Palace!
The Peace Palace (also called the international sear of law) is a historic building, housing things like the International Court of Justice. By 2013, it had been in standing for 100 years, and is one of the United Nations heritage sites. Beautiful, breathtaking, I could go on and on!
Of course we took pictures!
I presented a 20 minutes talk on 'Young people and politics – transcending borders and maximizing impact via social media'.
It was such an honor to talk about Nigeria, to plot the graph of our social media usage and how, regardless of the horrible things we're seeing now, we're coming into our own because we recognize we have a voice and boy are we going to use it! I'm so proud of my peers, of every young person who is daring to be different in their little corners – it is because of you that there is hope for this country!
Of course there were questions about Boko Haram being a Muslim vs Christian war, the abduction of the 200+ girls from Chibok, Borno, and the usefulness (or not) of the #BringBackOurGirls hashtag. Here's a summary of my answers:
*While I am not particularly impressed with the 'West' coming in to help, I believe that the light the international community has shone on Nigeria and our practices will hopefully, embarrass us into effecting changes we desperately need.
There was another presentation by from , and I really loved learning about her country. Loved it! Plus she's got such a love for travel and adventure, and a signature shot she does in each country!
Enough of the talk, here are a few more pictures!
Later that evening we had a speech performance by …. She's amazing! Like, each time she was doing a speech, the hall would be so quiet it was incredible! She's so good! Wish I would steal her and plant her in a room with our leaders so she can coach them. She's so good!
So, if you didn't know already, I am in Nigeria! Good news! Wondering how you will wrap your head around a social media campaign for your cause, idea or business? Holla! Email chioma(at)chiomachuka(dot)com, or tweet @chiomachuka.
You're welcome to book a social media consultation, and I've got great rates per the hour. Get in touch already!
Now, let's get on to the flights and the chronicle for the day. One of the first things on my plate soon as I came in was a trip to Lagos, and that happened on Monday. When I was booking the tickets, I told myself I wanted to use an airline I had never used before, and somehow I ended up with Medview.
Cost? N19000, probably that high maybe because I booked it on the day; Aero was 19k too). Arik was about 24k for a single, and since I'm not minting money in my room, I decided on Medview.
Flight time was supposed to be 4.30pm but we started boarding at that time, meaning that we took off about 5pm.
Got into Lagos ok, we thank the Lord for safe travels. Lagos was great, working out of Red Media's offices, planning big things, meeting people I'd known only on social media, I really had a good time!
All good things have an end though, and Wednesday evening was the time appointed for me to return to Abuja. Thanks to all the warnings about traffic, I set off for the airport about 3.30pm (for a 6.45pm flight). Got there about 5.30pm (hallelujah that I heeded the warnings), and I started reading, passing time.
At 6.45pm the first delay (for 25 minutes) was announced and I started berating myself (again) for picking a flight that late. A further 20 minutes delay was announced about 7.25pm. I quietly started making arrangements to spend another night.
Just before 8pm we were called to board, and there was a bit of drama when one passenger threatened to beat up one of the airline officials. Apparently the customer was lamenting the delays and the staff said something like, "am I the pilot?" Of course sentences like 'do you know who I am', 'I can pay your salary' etc., featured in the argument. Reminded me of a very despicable person I've had the misfortune of knowing and I couldn't stop rolling my eyes.
We boarded and the pre-flight announcements began. Oh wait, not before some lady convinced herself she was going to have my seat, even though my seat was clearly marked 'window', and hers was marked 'aisle'. Of course it didn't happen. SMH.
The pilot came on and apologized for the delay, citing horrible weather in Abuja. Even though I'd seen tweets telling of the really shitty weather, I still rolled my eyes, and was going to keep rolling them when it hit me that the pilot was singing!
Oh my word! He was actually singing! Something along the lines of, 'thank you for flying Aero Contractors today, you're the reason we're in business, we're sorry for the delay, may God bless you, la la la la'. It was so cute! I was so amused! And he used the tune of a popular song (can't remember which) but by the time he was done, we were all laughing and clapping, all the anger forgotten.
Concert done (lol), he mentioned there would be some turbulence as we approached Abuja but it was nothing to worry about, and then said to enjoy the flight.
As I am wont to do, I dozed. Was woken up by the hostess to take my snack pack, and I didn't wake up again till we touched down. Either there wasn't any turbulence, the pilots did a good job of maneuvering, or I was just too tired to wake up and notice. Of course God was in charge of the flight (let's just get that straight).
It's the first time I'd flown Medview ever, and the first time in a while I flew Aero, but I was so pleasantly surprised by the Aero flight. Shame I didn't catch the pilot's name; I would have asked for an autograph. Or even better, a selfie.
*Written on Wednesday the 9th of April
Cory Monteith. Michael Jackson. Whitney Houston. What two things do these names have in common? Fame/wealth. Undisputed access to tons and tons of money, acclaim, all that good stuff.
The second thing is illicit drugs/death. Whatever it is they snorted, smoked, injected or inhaled, it led to their death, and very early too. Cory Monteith was 31, Michael Jackson was 50. Talk about lives being cut short.
Exactly one week ago, when I heard Philip Seymour Hoffman had been found dead on the 2nd of February with a needle still stuck in his arm and heroin (a special type called 'Ace of Spades') in packets around him, I was sad, then angry, then sad, and angry all over again.
Sad – he died young, he was just 46. He was very popular too, an Oscar award winner, and recently starred in Hunger Games (which by the way I have never watched and don't think I will ever see because I don't like fight fight).
Angry – are there not enough examples to prove that drugs are a sure way to die early?
Sad – heartbroken for his family, his wife/partner and their three young children. His parents, and the stigma of being related to the person 'who died with a needle in his arm'.
Angry – what on earth made him go back to drugs after 23 years of being drug free? Whatever could have entered him all over again? They say his drugs could have been laced with something else. Ok, but why take them in the first place? Why?
I'm sure I could go the sad and angry route a few more times, but I won't.
Psychologists say anything you do for 30 days becomes a habit – this man had been drug free for at least 8280 days! Then according to a report I read, he started abusing prescription pills, graduated to heroin, and then on to this substance that took his life.
I chatted with someone recently, and he told me the amount of thanks and gratitude he got because he gave him a $5 tip. 5 dollars. Reports say just weeks ago the now late Seymour withdrew $1200 from an ATM to pay for these drugs. $1200 on drugs when the next man is almost throwing a party because he was gifted 5 bucks.
Here's another reason why I am angry – a child is attracted by the flickering light of a candle, and they want to touch it. Most times we let them because we know once it hurts them that first time, they most likely will not go back to it again. 'Most likely' because children have the attention span of a goldfish! Bless them.
23 years after, did he forget? Did he become so wealthy that he felt that the drugs would 'fear/respect his money' and not harm him? What was he thinking? The Bible says that the things that are written are unto us for examples.
Just like I wrote the 'learn from it, don't be it' post when Cory Monteith died, I'm writing again – say NO to drugs. Say No, and mean it so much that whoever asked you before will be convinced you are not interested. You shouldn't even be friends with such people in the first place!
RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Want to know how I met Mac-Jordan Degadjor? I was going to go to Ghana last year, and I googled 'bloggers in Ghana' because I wanted to meet people on the trip. One name kept popping up, and so I googled him (very well), and the things he's done, stuff he's achieved? No words! Got in touch, we met up, and he's joined the list of my buddies from Ghana! Plus, he opened me up to a fabulous opportunity that has been very rewarding in all ramifications, and I'm mighty grateful for that!
Day 22 of my #31days31writers project takes us to Ghana, and Mac-Jordan!
My name is Mac-Jordan Degadjor, and I am a social media entrepreneur. All too soon, it's almost the end of 2013 and here I am reflecting on the past couple of months. I've always lived by simple philosophy – life is short, make the best out of it whilst you are healthy and well.
The fact that you are reading this piece means you must have something to be grateful for despite all you might have gone through this year. I'm grateful that I have so many things to be thankful for, I don't even know where to begin!
Below are the top 5 things I'm most grateful for (in no particular order) and I'm looking forward to an awesome 2014 full of good health and opportunities to improve on my new media start-up: Africa New Media.
1. Life!
I'm very thankful for being alive till this very minute. I've traveled the length and breadth of the continent for business and pleasure and I couldn't have done any of that if I didn't have life. I'm most grateful for LIFE!
2.Good Health.
Since the beginning of 2013, I've been attacked by Malaria on 3 occasions but I'm grateful once again to be healthy and strong. I will make a conscious effort to stay healthy, eat well and exercise regularly in 2014.
3.Family and Friends
Having friends that you can turn to and having them there to enjoy your best moments in your life, but also help you through your tough ones, is something very special. I'm very grateful for the friends I've made in 2013 and sorry for those I lost too. I've always loved this quote from Oprah Winfrey:
"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough"-Oprah Winfrey
4.Social Connections + Change-Makers
I'm grateful for all of the people I have met online who have the same goal of creating a life based on passion and also changing this world for the better with their ideas and more.
5. I'm grateful for the heart-break I had to go through and for finally meeting someone who truly accepts me for me and not what I am. I've been accepted despite my flaws and I'm most grateful for that. To the special lady in my life, I'm grateful for your Fante love!
Finally, to you reading this piece now – I wish you an awesome 2014!
I met Princess Nky (she is a proper Princess o) at the Excuse Us London event in April (or March, fuzzy on dates now). It had been a very successful event, and we all piled into a restaurant for dinner. Everyone got talking and when I heard her surname, I introduced myself and asked if she was from the royal family in my town (I'm from a town, not a village). Of course she was/is, she's a princess!
And a really lovely one too, I remember her encouraging me just before I went on stage to moderate a panel at Social Media Week London, Princess you don't know what that short chat did for me that day! Thank you!
She's up on a Saturday for a reason, so you can head into the kitchen and whip something up inspired by the photos below! I'm grateful I have royalty on the blog this 21st day of the #31days31writers project; I give you Princess Nky!
My name is Nky Iweka, British-Nigerian or is it Nigerian-British (I wouldn't want to offend either side of my family and nationality). I live and breathe food, a foodie if you're being charitable or a glutton if you're not.
2013 was the year I truly discovered that I could combine my passion for food with my creative side and make a living from it in various ways.
One of the things I have always wanted to do is bring Nigerian food to the forefront of international cuisine. Our food is tasty but not always pretty. 2013 was spent refining the preparation and presentation of our food; writing a 300-page Nigerian cookbook due to be published next year (preview here: http://issuu.com/tupelogreen/docs/prelims_staplesreduced) and setting up an Executive Culinary Services Company (Tupelo & Green).
Like most people, I am grateful for my friends and family. As a Social Media Enthusiast, I also grateful to my friends on Facebook whom have given me great feedback on my food, much as they complain that I make them hungry with my posts.
My highlight of the year was having the opportunity to train the Executive Catering Staff of a major Nigerian organisation for several weeks over the summer.
You're probably wondering what is so special about my food? As well as finding new ways to present Nigerian food and discovering our more unusual dishes, I spend a lot of time seeking inspiration from other cuisines. "Nigerian food with a twist", my older daughter calls it.
They say a picture tells a thousand words, so here are a few of the dishes I made in 2013:
If I could do one thing differently, it would be that I wish I had listened to a friend who said a couple of years ago: "Nky, the thing you would do for free is the thing you should do for a living" – I would have started my reinvention earlier.
So here's to a fabulous 2014 for all of you.
Nky Iweka lives in London and may be found on here: http://tupelogreen.com or here: https://www.facebook.com/TupeloGreen
Started our 'post a day' series brilliantly yesterday with a riveting piece by Chude, and today we kick with the ladies and my girl Francine! She's featured on this blog before, I interviewed her and talked about the fabulous work she does with makeup! Then I hopped off to Aberdeen sometime in October for her baby girl's first birthday, and I had a wonderful time!
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Fran!
My name is Fran, I am British and I am a makeup artist.
This year I learnt that I matter! That I am more important than anything else that surrounds my life. Some might be puzzled or put off by reading that but I stand by it. So be patient in dishing out judgement.
This year I did so much for everyone else and most times I forgot about me. I ran myself down mentally and physically. I hardly stopped to think about my needs or what was in my best interests. I put my dreams and most of my goals aside to be there for the everyone else. Yet deep down I was unhappy, pretty much empty. This went on for the whole year!
Unsatisfied, empty me wanting to fill everyone else up.
Then I watched an interview on tv. It was an interview with Sheryl Sandberg. She was being interviewed by Oprah. I was astonished to hear how much of her words were pointing back to me. That mere 40 minutes of TV changed me. I sat there with my mum and I was in floods of tears. I could barely speak. I realised how much damage I had done to my mind by my negligence.
I sat there, and my whole year ran through my head. You know how people say 'my life flashed before my eyes', well this was that moment for me.
I immediately went onto Amazon and ordered Sheryl's book called 'Lean In '. I am still reading it, and savouring every learning moment. I even sent a copy to my best friends and my sister.
My point is that only a few weeks ago I thought differently about me. I paid no attention to the source but I kept dishing out the products. And now I believe that I can serve better and be able to do much more because I recognised me again.
In the last year I was blessed with the experience of being a mum and that's what I am most grateful for. I live everyday as best as I to teach and show my girl a good example of a woman. Not a flashy, ungrateful, spoilt brat celebrity but a real woman who will aim to better the world she lives in. I love this girl so much and I am so grateful that I get to wake up to her everyday. I am also extremely grateful for my best friend Lannie, she is one special girl, my husband and my family and friends.
I wouldn't want to change my experiences in the past year. Mainly because I know that in that very moment, as I sat and watched that interview, that was what my life needed. And in that time, I was open to receive the information. I don't know that any thing else could have made such an impact. But maybe that's just me. I strongly believe that God brings about the tools to help us grow and the people to facilitate the change but we will only see and truly appreciate it when our minds are open to receive.
Ladies and gentlemen, please ignore my feeble attempts at rhyming (look at the title again, see my sexy lyrics, lol)!
It's a great day! It's the end of the month, God's been good, I'm alive, my family and loved ones are alive and well, there is hope for us, what more could anyone ask for?
I must say though, I've had a really difficult week. Will attempt to express those in separate posts but am I happy the month is over or what? Especially because I've got some massive plans for December!
For the first time since, when I published a poem by Andy Watt on the blog, I'm going to be opening up my 'house' to let other people feature! I'm so excited about that!! Whoop!
Now, not only am I opening up the blog, but it's going to be open the entire month of December! Every single day, there's going to be one post from a different person talking about their 2013: what they learned, what they would do differently, and one thing they are grateful for! Some of these people I've met, some others I met via Twitter, some are Nigerian, others are not, I'm just really excited at what this project will throw up! And I'm mighty grateful to all of them for saying yes, and taking the time to send in a post and a picture (yes you'll see their pictures too!)
Are you excited? You better be!! It starts tomorrow, and there'll be a brand new one up everyday at 11am. Keep coming back, keep reading, and if by any odd stroke of fate you want to send a post in, you have only today to do so! Nothing over 600 words though, and you have to say your name, your nationality, and what you do for a living. Feel free to include a link to it if you want.
In advance, welcome to a beautiful, happy, extraordinary December! Rock out! Mwah!
What did you get up to this week? Good stuff I hope. My week's been one massive bag of emotions leaking all over the place, but that's how life gets sometimes isn't it? Thank God for strength to get through it, emerge in one piece type of thing.
So I'm going to run through my week very quickly, been a while I did that, and hopefully I can get you to share what you've been up to as well.
Hillsongs rocked!! I don't think my Sundays are complete without church on Sunday, but even more cos I attend the best worship services at Hillsongs!! By the way, there's a Christmas Carol at Wembley Arena on the 20th of December and you should totally come!!!
Decided to do the 'a post a day' for my blog in December. Put the word out on Twitter for 31 people to write about their year and the response was so good, I started getting submissions almost immediately! Cool! Cool!
Woke up early, got quite a bit of work done on YNaija2015 (www.ynaija2015.com). Pause. I'm Founding Editor for this news site, and working with the smartest guys in the room, we deliver political analysis and news out of Nigeria every single day. Strictly political. I've been working on this since it was launched in April, and I totally love it! You need to see the 'high' monitoring the elections in Anambra (a state in the Eastern part of Nigeria) all the way from the UK gave me! Should totally be on ground for elections next year and 2015, but I digress.
Got some great feedback for some work I turned in for Future Challenges, that was great too. Don't really remember anything else I did.
Skyped with a darling in the evening, was so cool!
Did a lot of writing today, I got some groceries, and I wore my new wellies to ASDA even though it wasn't raining. Did you notice I said the wellies were new? Lol. They're Apple Bottoms, and I love them!
'Facetimed' with Booski today. First time in a couple of days so that was good. Plans, plans, plans.
By the way, we're attending the premiere for MTV's Shuga next week! Need to go hunt for a dress that will look fabulous but protect me from the cold!
Crazy day, emotionally. Started with the two-hour phone call, and I'm grateful for the decision we took on me renewing my passport immediately.
Went to iron a top to wear to see the stage performance of 'Lion King', and ironing brought back vivid memories of my aunty. My desolation must have been palpable, I don't think I cried as much as I did on Wednesday like I did when I heard she'd passed. I miss her so much. So so much.
Yeah, got an email (somewhat unpleasant) concerning some work I'd delivered on. Looked at it and smiled. Least of my worries for now I promise you. Will take my time and deal with that over the weekend.
I got up, had a shower, and went off to London. Had a brilliant time (thank you @Chude)!
Went to start the process of renewing my passport (I've promised myself I won't do the story till I have my new passport in my hand so you'll have to wait a bit for that).
Had something called 'Red Thai curry' with lots of veg, rice and beans at a place called 'Pod' somewhere in London town, loved it! Then I got a micro sim for my HTC, and just like that, I've kissed the Blackberry goodbye! I miss it though, and even though I still have a sim in it anymore, I still use it.
Came home, actually slept off on the train so went past my stop (blame the Nigerian High Commission for tiring me out), but I got home ok at the end of the day. Passed out on the sofa, hunger woke me up so I ate and crawled upstairs.
Evening should have gone differently but hey…
Skyped with my brother, and then spoke to Mamman this morning. I miss my mother to bits! And my sister, and my dad, and my brother, and Boo Boo, and my boyfriend. By the way, Boo Boo is all grown now, I think I'm ready to start accepting applications for the post of 'wife'!
Emotion, emotions, emotional! Soon as Momma started praying for me (and I swear I needed it), my 'floodgates' just opened and I was bawling for most of the day. I miss aunty so much, and fingers crossed my Dad can deliver on what I want him to early next year. That'd be many shades of awesome, if he can pull that off for me.
Grateful to Francesca (@ZanyFran) for talking with me and giving me my first laugh of the day, and for people who love me unconditionally, unreservedly, and don't mind going over the same thing again and again just for me to get it.God bless you two.
That's where I am now. Friday evening. Once I'm done with this I have to finish two articles and send them off to my Editor (yep, this editor has got an editor, several in fact). Then I'll speak to my dad, and it'll be bedtime.
Need to shop for my dress tomorrow, post off some stuff (including some tea to a sister in Aberdeen), and then either get a massage or see a movie, or maybe I will do both! I have promised myself I will shake off this despondency, even if it's the last thing I do!
Love, peace, and everything sweet,
The Fairy GodSister.
There's a whole set of chronicles from my London-Lagos-Djeregbe-Lagos-Abuja-Lagos-London trip, first one's here.
We had devotionals everyday (link to my notes from all of them are here), and Jerome told this story during one of those devotionals. You might have heard it before but hey, no harm in reading it again, right?
In Lagos there is something called 'Third Mainland Bridge', which runs above ….river and is about km in length. According to Lagosians, it is the worst place ever to get stuck in traffic because there is no shoulder, and no options for a U-turn or anything like that.
Anyway, so on this day there wasn't any traffic, and this car with four guys in it was moving on the bridge when the driver miscalculated and went boom! into a pothole. All of them in the car heard a bang and when the driver got it together and stopped the car, they noticed that all the screws on one of the tires was off.
They were in the middle of the bridge, about … of road each way, and no screws to hold the tire in place so they could leave. Tried to call people to bring screws but for some reason they couldn't get anyone willing to come bring screws to them.
And then they saw this mad man walking towards them, like a proper mad person. Probably not the ones with clothes on, and of course he looked really rough, like he'd been on the streets for a while. First thought was, "oh boy, to compound our troubles here's a madman who will probably try to harass us". All of them braced themselves to fend him off, probably 'psyching' themselves up in their minds and putting on their most brave faces.
And the mad man came up to them and said, "why don't you remove one screw from each of the tires? That gives you three screws for the fourth one, and you can leave here."
Wisdom from a mad man? Incredible! But then you must have heard that even the fatally insane have their lucid moments, and the most intelligent have their crazy moments. Just depends on which one you channel more, but I digress:)
Long story short, these young men did as the madman said, and true to his words, they were able to drive off with three screws each on all four tires.
What if they had discountenanced his counsel because of his appearance? What if they didn't listen at all? They'd probably still be on that bridge till now!
Moral of the story? A man wrapped up in himself is a very small package. There are pools of knowledge we can draw from every single day, long as we humble ourselves and remain teachable.
C'est fini!

So I was bored at the job and made this with Photoshop
Not bad eh? Not the greatest Photoshop jobs ever done, but I think REVULSIVE would appreciate it. Letters are a pain in the butt to replicate.
The original picture was from a book done by Stven R. Schirripa and Charles Fleming, called "A Goomba's Guide to Life" Never read it, but guess I should at this point. XD

Obamacare is a cinder block tied around America's ankle and will sink it no matter what happens now. The only hope is to save part of America through secession. Start with Texas. Others will follow. I think some of the western Canadian Provinces would join us to to become the Free States of America. I don't think the USA will mind us using the Constitution as the basis for our new government. Shoot. They're not using it anyway.

San Vincenzo Apartment Rental Photos and Description
direct access to the beach, 2-3 room apartments, balcony with view on the sea
We offer apartments with two or three rooms (1 or 2 double bedrooms, living room with sofa-bed, kitchen and bathroom), on the ground floor, with a direct access to the garden or on the upper floor with terrace and a view on the sea, equipped with every comfort, TV, washing-machine and heating in winter; own table and chairs in the open air. The beach is a sandy beach, free and also private, where you can rent beach umbrellas and beach chairs. The residence is only 1 km far from the center, and the nearest shops for food are only 200 m away. Our flats look out on an exciting view of the Archipelago surrounded by the ancient Etruscan ruins and the medieval towns of Tuscany.
Further Details: San Vincenzo combines natural beauty with the amenities of a welcoming, hospitable resort, making it an international tourist destination, where relaxing holidays can be enjoyed all year around. In April there is the Costa degli Etruschi Palio, where jockeys, representing the various Etruscan coastal towns, compete, in an exciting race held on the beach at San Vincenzo. During Palio week the town is in a festive mood with numerous other events taking place.
The sea and the beach: The sea at San Vincenzo is crystal-clear and bordered by dense pinewoods and thick Mediterranean scrub; the splendid beach, with its fine, gold sand, stretches for many kilometers. Dotted along the coast are a number of lookouts and old fortifications, including the 14th century San Vincenzo's Tower, which gave its name to the town and was once used to defend the coast against attacks by pirates. The limpid air and light sea breezes make aquatic sports even more enjoyable. Once a busy port of call for trade, the well-equipped harbour of San Vincenzo now has moorings for hundreds of leisure craft.
The wine street: Val di Cornia DOC wines, togheter with those from Bolgheri, Montescudaio and Bibbona, are typical of the prestigious, quality wines produced along the Costa degli Etruschi. The extra-virgin olive oil produced by local growers, is also of excellent quality. Along the wine route are farmhouses, agricultural holdings and farm holiday centres, where local produces and gastronomic specialities such as game, fruits and vegetables, honey, grappa, salami, cured meats and cheeses, can be purches. A place of honour is reserved for the "Campiglia Schiaccia", a cake with ancient origins which boasts the DOP (protected Origin) mark.
