This is a great way to promote your destination's story or brand through AR effects that users can easily share with their friends on social networks.


text: What Wood for Woodwork – Part II 26 July 2018 Anand-Jha (0) Out in the market searching for wood for your home woodwork? As any veteran will tell you it's hell of a confusion. As many people you interact with, as many advise you will get. So how do you choose the right material? The second article in the series. On Plywood. If more than design, solidity is your concern go for Plywood or Board. But even here the choice is not as simple as the one between black and white. As in most of the cases it depends on your intended usage. Even though Plywood is quite strong and is sufficient for most of the usage its construction makes it somewhat unsuitable for certain functions. In most of the cases it involves the furniture that require somewhat longer pieces. Things like shelf or shutters. Since Plywood is basically a number of ply pasted on each other, the process while granting it strength and flexibility also make it prone to sagging. If you are making a long wardrobe door out of Plywood there are chances that it will bend over a period of time. The option either is to go for thicker Plywood, which in turn will apart from increasing the weight will also add to the cost without any significant benefit. In beds where Plywood is preferred long pieces of timber are used horizontally to support its weight. As result even thinner Ply can be made use of. Besides, carpenters too generally tend to avoid Plywood as working on it is little difficult on account of its construction and which also inhibits its ability to hold nails. Advantages: Known for its strength. Lasts really very long. The Plywood dismantled from old furniture can be re-utilised to make new things. From very thin to quite thick comes in a wide range of width. Disadvantages: Lacks rigidity. Cannot be used for furnitures that need to bear weight or needs reinforcements. Screws do not hold easily. Working on it is relatively difficult. Costly. Low-end range usually split as they are pasted with cheap adhesives.

Foundations – A Solid Footing For Your Financial Future
If you're in the early stages of your financial planning, then our Foundations program is the perfect fit. We designed the Foundations program to help you achieve long-term financial goals through savings and investments. However, we also incorporate your overall financial picture. You may not believe you have the assets or needs for financial planning. However, we strongly believe these early stages are critical to your long-term financial future.
Who Is Foundations For?
Foundations is an investment program designed for families or individuals who don't necessarily need the same offerings as those close to or in retirement. We hear most often from our retired clients that they regret not focusing on their finances during their younger years. They always figured there was plenty of time down the road to worry about it. We know very well the difficulty in finding the time to address these issues. This is why young professionals just like you oversee Our Foundations program. They appreciate how busy life can be between work and family. It is our goal to make this process as easy as possible for you. Through Foundations, we will help you organize and simplify your financial life.
With Foundations, you will be able to see your entire financial picture – from where you are now to where you want to be in the future. This includes financial planning, investment management, and ongoing consultation.
Financial Planning
We analyze your financial situation and risk tolerance to construct a practical investment plan that will help you reach your goals. The first step is simply getting to know you and your goals. We'll talk about what you want to accomplish, the timeframe, and your current situation. From there, we'll work with you to determine your risk tolerance that will shape your investment portfolio. Furthermore, we'll use these conversations to put in place a plan that focuses on your unique goals and needs. Our Foundations program will help you address areas like cash flow and budgeting, debt and risk management, tax efficiency, college planning, investment strategies, and company benefits.
Investment Management
We utilize commission free, low-cost ETFs and mutual funds to develop an investment portfolio. This portfolio will be built to endure the inevitable ups and downs of the market. Then, we combine it with a disciplined rebalancing strategy driven by intention rather than emotion. Once your allocation is implemented we will handle all aspects of portfolio management. This includes monitoring, rebalancing, tax efficiency, and investment analysis.
Ongoing Consultation
We'll meet with you in person, by phone, or online to discuss your investment portfolio and planning needs. Moreover, you will have a dedicated financial advisor supported by a friendly and professional support staff. It is our desire to build a long-term relationship focused on seeing you grow your wealth and achieve your goals.
The Foundations Experience
You Will Experience:
- Investment Management
- Financial Planning
- Ongoing Communication And Financial Advice
Our Financial Planners Will:
- Analyze your total financial situation.
- Determine risk tolerance.
- Build a realistic personalized investment plan.
- Manage your investment portfolio the same we manage all portfolios
The Fiduciary Standard
The Retirement Planning Group is an independent Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) and is held to a strict fiduciary standard. Simply put, this means we are driven to put your interests ahead of ours. Our fee-only structure allows us to focus on putting our clients first, rather than worrying about what product to sell. Furthermore, we are not motivated or paid by commissions and take great pride in our fee transparency. In addition, we do not take physical custody of your assets. Your accounts are held at an independent firm who acts as custodian for your assets. All of this is designed to ensure you are getting the guidance and financial advice you deserve and a financial advisor you can trust.

Plants need highly efficient responses to adverse environmental conditions as they are bound to a single location.These adaptive processes are not only important in the acute phase of the stress but are in natural environments discriminative for plant fitness and in agricultural systems determining yield. Reprogrammed metabolism is an important part of stress adaption. Even small changes in metabolic reactions can cause dramatic changes in levels of key metabolites, which may change the physiology and growth of the plant.The long time goal of the group is to understand this highly dynamic network of metabolites, enzymes and most importantly - How is the adaptive growth of plants is regulated?
Adverse conditions results often in limited energy availability and plant cells respond to this by reprograming their metabolism to better fit the new situation.This dramatic change involves hundreds of gene products and metabolites; we call this the Low Energy Syndrome, LES. The change is mastered by the SnRK1 kinase complex, which is able to react to lo levels of metabolizable sugars. This parallels the manner in which all eukaryotes regulate starvation responses. In plants the SnRK1 kinases regulate gene expression of genes encoding key meta- bolic enzymes by activating certain bZIP transcription factors. One of our projects focuses on these transcription factors.We are interested in their mode of action and how their activity is regulated.Technically we are using high throughput expression analysis (micro-arrays, massive sequencing) as central analysis ool combined with genetics and transgene based methods.
When conditions are favorable for plant growth the SnRK1 complex is deactivated and a second major signaling system takes over mastered by another kinase - The Target of rapamycin, TOR that is positively regulates growth in all eukaryotes.TOR does so partly by regulating translation, which is a very energy consuming process and is therefore tightly regulated.The second project in the laboratory deals with the regulatory mechanism of translational control by focusing on the activity of the ribo- some.We currently are identifying novel components involved in translational changes using transcriptomics, translatomics, proteomics and genetic methodology.
The growing population of this planet will change our socie- ty. It is clear that food, feed and other plant-based resources will be limiting in the future.The grand challenge is to increase plant production a sustainable way.The transition to less fossil fuel dependent production will challenge our agricultural systems even further. Consequently, there is a basic need to optimize plant growth.This can be done by changed growth practices and reducing post harvest losses, etc. However, we can not reach our goals without crop improvement, similarly to what happened during the green revolution half a decade ago.This is not limited to classical crops.We will need novel corps for biomass, bioenergy and biorefinery needs. By understanding the underlying mechanisms of growth control we hope to find new ways to improve plant based production.

It also has fun and informative 3D printing technical articles and projects, like how to 3D print your own business card. Yes, that's right. The job searching world is full of advice about how to land great jobs and make and keep positive impressions with peers and associates. And, if it is the 3D printing industry your involved with, or trying to get into more, then what would make a lasting impression better than a 3D printed business card?
This post, by Women in 3D Printing technical writer Jamie Kawahara, takes you through each step toward printing your own business cards. She covers four basic steps you need to follow. First, you need to register for your free Thingiverse and Tinkercad accounts. The Tinkercad account is online, and so you don't have to be bothered downloading it. Then you choose the Customizable Lithopane page on Thingiverse: then click "open in customizer"; click small pane and invert colors; choose the jpg photo you want and click "Create Thing." Then you download your STL file by clicking on "Thing Files," which you can find under the "My Things" dropdown arrow at the right on the top of the page.
Next you will create your Business Card Base, by clicking on "Create New Design" in Tinkercad. Then select the geometric option under shape generators and select the red box. Drag the red box to to the workplane and then click to deposit it. After that you will manually enter the business card standard size by first selecting the ruler from the top tool bar, dragging it to the red box, and then placing 89.00 for width and 51.00 for height measurements. You also want to choose a thickness of 1.0 for the card: not too thick and not too thin.
Your card needs text, so this is the next step. There are lengthy instructions here about how to get it all right with text: just scroll down to the post section "Create the Business Card Text" or watch the video tutorial below.
Finally, before you print your new cards, you need to add your lithopane portrait from Thingiverse. Import your Thingiverse STL file and adjust its size. You also will want to change the loop and raised edges of the original design, and there are detailed instructions about how to do that in Kawahara's post.
Then, you download the file for printing.
The great news about this project is that the video tutorial is easy to follow, so you should watch that if you run into any glitches designing your perfect, edgy, and captivating 3D printed business card — brought to you by Women in 3D Printing. I only have one request for Jamie Kawahara: can you find a way to make them into a sticker or magnetize the cards? Then all of the cards could be up on an office wall or filing cabinet instead of tucked away!

Taxing times for Britain's lottery winnersPosted on: 16 November 2009 by Mark O'haire
£45.5 million. That surely is a good Saturday morning reading when you pick up your lottery winnings. But it isn't all plain sailing as some of you might think, according to Peter McGahan.
Consider the problems Les and Samantha, the lottery winners now have. There may be some mild sarcasm to follow.
What about inheritance tax (IHT)? The UK government will have helped Les and Samantha with the extra nil rate band for Inheritance tax. That will have pulled the total IHT bill down from £18,070,000 to a mere £17,940,000 - What a bonus that is. No sooner will they have the cash than they will indeed be trying to get rid of it.
And for savings and investments - the extra allowance for an ISA will help as Les can now put £10,200 into an ISA but Samantha will have to suffice with £7200 as she hasn't reached the fine age of 50 yet. She can enjoy that pleasure in April 2010 when everyone will benefit from the higher allowance.
There are investments they can make which are taxed as income and investments which are taxed as a capital gain. An investment into a range of products that attract capital gains tax which performed at a growth per year of 7% will, after allowances, attract £573,300 in tax per year and will be rising year on year.
This is still more attractive than the good old investment bond which most people invest into. Unfortunately for Les and Samantha they will be hit for their highest rate of tax on the income on any gain in a bond. For example an investment into an onshore investment bond (which is basically a default vehicle for most bank or tied financial advisers) would enjoy the highest rate of tax on the gain. So they invest at year one and five years later after a return of 7% per year they decide to encash. The gain which is added to their income for the year is £18,316,103.
If plans to tax higher rate tax payers at a mere 50% come into play in April 2010, Les and Samantha will have to part with nearly £9m in tax. But consider the poor commission based financial adviser with his 7% commission who will have to struggle with over £3.1m commission initially. I suspect the Scaddings might bargain with them on their commission though.
So a few tips to consider: The accountant you used to work out your day to day expenses will probably need an upgrade.
Investments into an offshore bond should be considered but use a fee based adviser so as to pay for the services in a tax efficient manner. An offshore bond allows for tax free growth on the investment (apart from a small element of withholding tax in certain countries of origin). All the investments inside this tax efficient wrapper can be traded without any liability to capital gains tax. Les and Samantha could disappear for a year and become non resident and then encash the bond outside of the Uk's tax regime. This would potentially save nearly nine million; They should now, much to their childrens' delight, make whatever gifts they can to mitigate inheritance tax; they should also use a qualified investment specialist rather than a generalist and ask for lost of opinions on their ability; If they decided to set up a business with their family they could receive 100% relief for Inheritance tax on death as it may be classed as a business asset. There are other trusts which can be created to allow the capital to be gifted away but retain an income but they will need careful advice at the £45.5 million mark.
And….whilst I am sure they will not let it affect their lives, they will probably, for tax reasons, knock the overtime on the head.

You will need:
Round paper mache box
Black craft foam
Embroidery floss in school colors or favorite colors
Black acrylic paint
Small dowel cap
Scrap piece of cardboard
(Optional) 2013 Table scatter confetti
I wrote a book!
Be sure to pick up your copy today!!
Here is the video tutorial:
1. Paint the paper mache box in black and set aside to dry.
2. Paint the dowel cap black and set aside to dry
3. Center the lid of the box on the foam to create a square and cut a straight line
4. Take a string and cut it the width of the top of the box and fold in half - that will give you the center of the box top
5. Take a screwdriver, drill or ice pick and poke a hole in the lid of the box.
6. Put the foam square on the bottom of the open box and center the lid on the top of the box and poke or drill a hole into the foam. (If that seems confusing, watch the video. It's less confusing than it sounds).
7. Take the screw and screw it into the bottom of the box lid. Put the foam onto the screw and screw on the dowel cap.
8. Put some glue between the foam and the paper mache box lid, just to keep it in place. Allow to dry. Tip: Don't use hot glue, it might be too hot for the foam and it will end up misshapen. Use a white glue.
Onto the tassel:
1. Cut a piece of cardboard the length you want the tassel to be.
2. Cut a small notch into one end - this will help grab the end of the embroidery floss.
3. Insert the end of the embroidery floss into the cardboard notch and wrap it around the cardboard. Repeat with a second color, if you are doing to colors.
4. Take a good pair of scissors and put one end between the floss and the cardboard and move it to the bottom of the cardboard and cut in a straight line.
5. Carefully remove the embroidery floss and place it on your work surface, open, but make sure it still has the bend/crease.
6. Take a piece of the embroidery floss and tie it around the creased area. You want to make sure it is long enough because that is what you will be using to tie it on with. Now you can bend it in half.
7. Take another piece of floss and wind it around toward the top of the tassel and tie a knot.
8. Straighten and trim the bottom of the tassel to even it out.
9. Punch a small hole in the 2013 and thread a piece of embroidery floss through it.
10. Unscrew the dowel cap and tie both the tassel and the 2013 onto the cap.
That's it!!
Fill it with gifts and fun stuff for the graduate!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!!

Fast and Secured: Perspective on Performance and Security in IT
Performance and security are like brothers in IT. They are similar and yet they fight each other at times.
Both performance and security are important inherent qualities in IT systems. Who would not want a fast and secured IT system? You want your home computer to be fast and secured. The bank CEO wants his Internet banking system to be fast and secured for his customers.
Being fast and being secured are two of the most wanted qualities in IT systems. End users expect these qualities. They work hand in hand. Good performance best practices can make sure denial of service never happens in security.
Yet performance and security sometimes seem incompatible. An extra security feature tends to make the system do extra work and thus the system becomes slower. Extra performance tuning tends to make the system faster and the hacker may be able to brute force the system. The most notable conflict is in cryptography. Performance is to make the system fast for the end user. Security is to make the system difficult for the hacker to achieve his goals. For example, if the CPU's power increase 1000 times over night, most encryption schemes in the world would break because the hacker can use brute force to decrypt information overnight.
Performance and security are like brothers in IT. They can work together and they can fight each other. The important thing is to do the right things in performance and security to make sure these brothers work together for you instead of against you.

Brian Carlsen had already established himself as a top Brown Belt competitor on the international BJJ tournament scene but now he's been promoted to Black Belt and is ready to advance his career and winning ways when he competes in the Revgear World Open – Kansas City Black Belt Superfight on September 27th.
Over the past 12 months Brian has captured gold winning multiple IBJJF events as well as tournaments in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In June of 2014 Brian was invited to compete in Dream's Baddest Brown Belt $1,000.00 Challenge which put 32 top level Brown Belt competitors against each other in a submission only, single elimination tournament event. After the smoke cleared Brian Carlsen emerged the victor after competing in 4 matches, one of which was a 50 minute battle.
Brian is currently the head instructor at Easton BJJ in Boulder, CO where he grew up. When Brian isn't on the mat he's enjoying the great Colorado outdoors and pursuing a career in research technology.
Brian takes on a tough St. Louis Black Belt Nick Sanders from team Nova Uniao at Revgear World Open – Kansas City.
Join Brian & sign up to compete on September 27th here: http://www.r2sports.com/website/event-website.asp?TID=13036
Brian would also like to thank Jotunn and Katz Chiropractic for their support.

Specific spells/JA or something to the relics/mythics/emps to make them equally competitive.

From 26 to 30 Sept 2016, our Managing Director, Philippe Vincent and our QSE Manager, Olaf Duwer, have been touring across our sites and offices to bring our teams together for the Vinci International Safety Week.
Over 68,000 employees of the group participated in activities for that special week at every location designed to help them STEP UP for Safety!
2016's theme focuses on the major risks on our job sites, with three main topics:
- Working near active roadways
- Working at heights
- Prevention of hand injuries
Menard Oceania particularly insisted on hand safety, vital to reducing 100k hand injuries in our industry worldwide annually.
Philippe Vincent with our Plant Yard Team
This week was a great opportunity to meet and discuss with the teams about their daily tasks and struggles, encourage them and think about how we can eliminate risks from our activities, aiming for zero accidents.
"At the end of Q3 2016 our total recordable injury frequency rate per one million hours worked (TRIFR) is at 13.4 – our immediate target is to achieve under 10. Our primary objective is to achieve a zero harm work environment, no injuries. We all have a responsibility to each other to ensure that everyone makes it home safely every day. With everyone actively involved, we have a realistic opportunity of achieving this" said Olaf Duwer, our QSE Manager.
Hats off to our Project Managers, QSE Manager & field personnel who are real rock stars and step up to make safety a priority every day.

Do you ever find yourself in a serious lunch rut? I do on a pretty regular basis. My crazy kicks mixed with my desire to do as little as possible when it comes to prepping for the busy week doesn't help. Taking a healthy lunch to work is a high priority for me, but I just don't want to spend too much of my precious free time putting it all together. So, in an effort to diversify my lunchtime experience while still being able to maximize my time, I've been experimenting with adding different flavors to some of my quick and easy favorites to bring a little life back to my boring noon-hour.
That's exactly what I did with this spin on a typical veggie wrap. By adding some classic Thai flavors, like peanuts, peppers, celery and carrots, I added a lot more flavor and gave my taste buds a break from my usual hummus and feta combo. It was surprisingly good, and I'm actually looking forward to the work week now! (well, kind of…ha ha)
Getting Started
Start by cutting up all of your veggies. Make sure to slice the carrots and celery very thinly, and be mindful not to cut yourself! You don't want the carrots to be too crunchy, or the celery to overpower each bite.
After your veggies are prepared, spread a thin layer of peanut butter all over your tortilla. I think it's pretty important to use natural peanut butter here; a lot of peanut butters out there have sugar in them (in some form), and I'm not sure how that would turn out. I used 1 Tbs of peanut butter for mine because I wasn't sure if it would hijack the flavor, but I actually think I could have used more – the peanut butter was my favorite part!
All you have left to do is layer on your desired amount of veggies, sprinkle on some green onion and red pepper flakes, and roll it all up! It really is that easy!
If you want a tip about rolling up your tortilla, make sure to put all of your veggies in a line starting closer to one side of the tortilla; the other side will become the end of the wrap, so nothing falls out.
Natural peanut butter
Romain lettuce
Red and green bell peppers, sliced
Carrots, thinly sliced
Celery, thinly sliced
Green onion
Red pepper flakes
Jalapeno flavored tortilla
All ingredients are to taste.

CU holds Public Lecture on Management by Self Punishment and Our National Progress
With the high failure rate of businesses in Nigeria, Covenant University's 12th Public Lecture will take a critical look at the negative effects of abnormal behavourial syndrome in the management of business enterprises, especially those owned by government, on the country's all overall national development.
With the high failure rate of businesses in Nigeria, Covenant University's 12th Public Lecture will take a critical look at the negative effects of abnormal behavourial syndrome in the management of business enterprises, especially those owned by government, on the country's all overall national development.
The lecture, titled, " Management by Self-Punishment and Our National Progress," will be delivered by a renowned expert in organizational behaviour, Professor Joseph Abiodun Bello on Thursday, April 26, 2007 at the University Chapel.
Professor Bello is currently Head of Department of Business Studies and pioneer Co-ordinator of the University's Staff Parley, an innovative and creative forum periodically organize by the University to enable its faculty and staff contribute ideas to "guide public policy formulation and implementation".
An international business scholar of high repute, Professor Bello before joining the Covenant University faculty, was at different times the Dean of Faculty of Business and Head, Department of Business Administration of the University of Lagos.
He is an advisor to small business groups of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria.
Professor Bello has published widely in reputable outlets across the continents of the world. His research interests span across the fields of organisational behaviour, Administration, culture and management practices in Nigeria and perception process/ leadership dynamics in creative learning organisations.
The Public Lecture will be chaired by the Chancellor of Covenant University, Dr David Oyedepo and the venue is the University Chapel, Canaan Land, Ota by 3.00 pm.
GOD FIRST! TO GOD BE THE GLORY! The birthday of our Lord Jesus Christ is remembered on Christmas Day. Professor Joseph Abiodun Bello shares the same birthday with our Saviour and Redeemer. He was born on December 25, 1938 to the family of Pa Oni Bello and Madam Folashade Bello, at Ilesa, then Oyo State, but now known as Osun State.
He attended the Salvation Army Primary School, Isokun, Ilesa, up till Standard Four, when he transferred to the Holy Trinity Primary School, Omofe, also at Ilesa for his Primary Five and Six classes, to complete his Primary school education in 1954.
He was a pioneer student of the newly introduced Secondary Modern School System by the then Oyo State in 1955. He attended Council Secondary Modern School, Ilesa from 1955 to 1957, where he obtained the Secondary Modern School Certificate. On the basis of performance on a competitive merit examination conducted by the State Ministry of Education for Modern Three classes in 1957, he was the Second best student out of the Fifteen in Oyo State. The reward for the Fifteen students being direct commission into the Oyo State Public Service with an unusually attractive salary. Professor Bello was not to take advantage of that award for two reasons:
(a). He was posted to the State Ministry of Health at Ibadan as anAssistant Leprosy Inspector. That reward did not exactly ,sound amusing to him, parents, classmates, and friends. The traditional prejudice and fears regarding contact with leprosy patients then could not be overcome.
(b). The requirement of the posting to get him outside the rather familiar, serene, and youthfully rollicking Ilesa environ of those days was simply not attractive enough.
He remained at Ilesa from 1958 to 1961 combining teaching in Primary schools with private tuition studies first for the "Qualifying Test in English Language" (QT), needed to take subjects at the GCE level. And after QT, taking Ordinary and Advanced level papers. He had eight (8) OL papers and four (4) Advanced Level subjects needed to enter University.
In early 1962, a new concept of University education introduced by the Ashby Report, led to the establishment of University of Lagos. A Faculty of Commerce and Administration and a Faculty of Law, emerged. Professor Bello had another opportunity to be a pioneer student in the Faculty of Commerce and Administration. The University was to be non-residential with students spending the first and final years in residence, while spending the second year outside.
He maintained a rented room at Ishaga Road, while the temporary lecture halls were a Secondary School building at Idi-Araba, near the Teaching Hospital.
The first hostel was at some unused newly completed residential extension of the Baptist Academy Secondary School, at Ikorodu Road. The University
Permanent Site at Akoka was gradually taking shape for most of the: three and half years of the Bachelor's degree programme. Some misunderstandings regarding the selection and re-appointment of the first Vice-Chancellor led to some chaos, leading to the closure of the Institution.
The final year degree examinations were taken in November 1965 (rather than in June).
He made a 2.1 in the B.Sc (Hons) degree examinations. He, and two other students in his class were invited by the University of Lagos as Graduate Assistants to pursue academic career from January 1966. He participated in the USAID - NIGERIA: AFGRAD Fellowship leading to his MBA (Management) at GBA - NYU in 1968. According to the programme, he had to return to Nigeria with the MBA first to explore the business education terrain as a teacher. He later returned to the USA in 1971 for studies in NYU - GBA, and the University of Kansas, Lawrence for his Ph.D degree in organizational Behaviour and Administration, in 1978.
He returned to University of Lagos in 1978 and rose through the ranks of Assistant Lecturer - Lecturer 11 - Lecturer I - Senior Lecturer (1980) Associate Professor (1986) - Professor (1990).
At different times, he was Acting Head and Head of Business Administration Department, and also Dean of the Faculty of Business Administration from 1995 to 1997.
Professor Bello supervised the first Ph.D grandaunt of the Department of Business in 1990, and also two others in 1991 and 2000. He was a co supervisor of three other Ph.D students.
His current research interests are in the areas of
(i). Culture and Management Practices in Nigeria (with a longitudinal Focus).
(ii). Perceptual Processes, and
(iii). Leadership Dynamics Impacting Creative Learning Organizations.
Professor Bello served on many administrative committees as member and chairman. He was chairman of the Faculty of Business Research Committee, and representative on the Central Research Committee of Senate from 1985 to 1994.
He was the pioneer Editor-in-Chief of NASMET: Journal of Management Education and Training (published by the Nigerian Association of Schools of Management Education and Training) February 1981 to April 1984.
Also, the pioneer Editor-in-Chief of JORSON: Journal of Operational Research Society of Nigeria (published by the Operational Society of Nigeria) January 1982 to date.
He retired from the services of the University of Lagos in December 2003, after putting in 37 years plus. He came to Covenant University on contract from September 2004 to date. He has been HOD, Business Studies, since, besides being a member of Senate, a member of Post Graduate Committee, member of Research and Development Committee, and Parley Coordinator,
from 2004 to April 2006.
The three programmes of Marketing, Business Administration, and Industrial Relations and Human Resources Management housed by Department of Business Studies were fully accredited by the NUC till December 31, 2010.
Professor Bello has attended International Conferences in Madrid, Spain; USA; Canada, and UK. He has over 30 papers published in national and international Journals, besides co-editing three book.

Hey you! How are you doing?
I think it was better than Peter Jennings version but the majority of it, is Peter Jennings version. The main three stories were just taken off the shelf from the 2005 Seeing Is Believing. I wasn't surprised at that.
Muir however presented it in a different light. He didn't have that derogatory tone that Jennings had, which made all the difference.
Nice hearing from you.

I am good-busy trying to keep up on all the paranormal/ufo news out there.
I'd have to agree with you. It was presented in a better manner, but I feel that major networks in the USA have a long way to go.
Have a good one out there ;)
p.s. what do you make of Oct 14???

I don't believe it will happen. It'll go by the wayside. If anything I think she may have hurt a psychic's trek in the future since everyone will be saying, "yea, remember Blossom". Unfortunately nobody forgets events such as these.
As far as the paranormal goes, I wish there was less. There's too much. I'm sure Halloween did that but normally where there is one full Blog Search page for paranormal for 12 hours, there are 5 or more. I go through every page until I've hit the 12th hour. That's a big job. Lots of good stuff in there though.
Maybe you ought to come up with an article about what it is Blossom is doing with the idea that it may not happen and what the repercussions could be for not only her but every psychic in the world. Also, the fact that a UFO could appear in Alabama just because they do already so nobody can count on such. Besides, I think her statement was 3 days straight or something like that.
I get 'peeps' (I'll call them for better words) and they say, NO. So I say no.

Don't you love Red, White & Blue? Me too! Today I am sharing my super easy Patriotic Frozen Yogurt Stars! To me red, white and blue are the colors of summer. We have three patriotic holidays from the start of the season until we wrap up summer in September. The Fourth of July is around the corner, but you can make these Patriotic Stars all summer long! I was so excited to share these Frozen Yogurt Stars over at Tatertots & Jello on Monday, but if you missed it, you can see them right here!
I would like to think these are a little bit healthy, but since they are topped with a red, white and blue chocolate drizzle – I'm not sure they can be called "healthy"…but they are cute!
Vanilla Yogurt | Granola | Red, White and Blue Candy Melts
Wilton Silicone Star Mold | Squeeze Bottle or Sandwich Bag
My measurements are based on the ability to make six stars. Use approximately 1/2 cup of granola and mixed it with 1 – 2 tablespoons of the vanilla yogurt. This will help bind the granola together. Take about a teaspoon of the granola mixture and press it into the bottom of the stars. Then spoon in the vanilla yogurt overtop until the stars are full. Give the pan a little giggle now and then to help the yogurt settle. Pop them in the freezer.
Once the stars are frozen, remove them from the freezer and let them sit for a few minutes. The stars should be easy to remove from the mold.
If you are going to make more than six, I recommend making all your yogurt stars, keeping them in the freezer, before starting the decorating process.
I recommend decorating all the stars with one color at a time, keeping them frozen between each color. The chocolate will begin to harden in the bag if left sitting for awhile. Best to use it when it is warm.
To decorate, take a small sandwich bag and cut a tiny hole in the corner. Then melt the candy melts in the microwave, in small time increments, stirring in between. Once you have the right consistency, spoon the chocolate into the sandwich bag. Gently squeeze the bag creating a nice chocolate drizzle! Repeat with each color and pop back in the freezer until you are ready to severe!
Perfect for all summer long or any patriotic celebrations – enjoy!
If you are looking for additional Patriotic Treats, you might also like my Red White & Blue Patriotic Star Popsicles
or my Firework Chocolate Covered Pretzels!
Hope your day is creative!
Linking to these wonderful parties!

I'm out West, in Montana, fishing this week, trying a variety of rivers, some of which I've fished before, some not.
Being here beginning the third week of July usually puts the odds in your favor, in terms of river levels and flows. By then, the fast water resulting from the spring and summer melting of mountain snow pack has settled down, and the rivers are fishable.
That's also the case this summer, though conditions on most rivers are just now settling down. The good news is there was tremendous snow throughout much of the Rockies last winter, and most reservoirs are full. Most ranchers also are happy, because there is plenty of water for their crops.
However, the heavy runoff from the mountains has slowed fishing until the last week or so.
Now, as is typical this time of year in the West, day upon day seems hot, sunny - and a great time to fish.
Here are ways on five rivers you can get by on your own, on the cheap, and begin anew in this region the learning process that all fishing, ultimately, is:
Bighorn River: This is ground zero for many visiting Montana trout anglers, about 90 percent of whom, at least in their first trips here, hire guides. That's great. But at about $375 or more a day, expenses add up. A couple of alternatives: Walk and wade, seeking access, especially, at drift boat launch and takeout sites. Plenty of information regarding flies, techniques, etc., is available at local fly shops in Fort Smith, Mont., where flies and other gear also can be purchased. Another tip: Rent your own drift boat. The cost here is typically about $100 a day, but a boat can carry three anglers (one of whom would row). Be cautious in times of high water, however - but don't worry (generally) because if the water is real high and fast, no one will rent you a boat.
Yellowstone River: Again, a guide and boat are a great way to go. But there are access points at various locations (a couple of good Montana fly fishing books are widely available), including along the freeway between Big Timber, Mont., and Bozeman, Mont. Fly shops in Big Timber, Livingston and Bozeman can give you more information, including entry points upstream, closer to Yellowstone National Park.
Big Blackfoot River: Plenty of access points for walking and wading exist on this river, which was the focal-point stream for the book, "A River Runs Through It.'' This stream is farther west, however, not far from Missoula, Mont., near which the Big Blackfoot flows into the Clark Fork River. This is about as pretty a stream as you'll find, though fishing right now is a little tough, in part because of three large salmon fly hatches, which apparently have kept some trout from taking artificials. Again, local fly shops have information that will help you be successful.
Madison River: For visiting anglers looking to save money, renting a drift boat (again, about $100 a day) might be the best way to go. Not every shop will do this, but if you do some checking, and are flexible about your entry points (rental boats are available, among other places, at Cameron, Mont.), you can get a boat and a low-buck way to fish, for three people, one of America's iconic rivers - and one that is known as the world's largest riffle.
Gallatin River: A great river that can be fished between Bozeman, Mont., and West Yellowstone, Mont., at any of a number of public access points. This is generally a fast river that can be a difficult place to place a fly correctly. But there are sufficient numbers of quieter spots to fish, and all are easy to access by the public, either below or above Big Sky, Mont.
It's all fun.
Admittedly, doing it on your own takes more time, and, initially, at least, will result in fewer fish taken than a guide will get you.
But in the end, you'll learn more by being your own boss.

Project 2058 is the Institute's flagship project focusing on New Zealand's long-term future. When selecting a year in the future to guide our thinking, we decided 50 years was distant enough to avoid self-interest but close enough to realistically drive our work forwards. In 2004, the McGuinness Institute (then called the Sustainable Future Institute) began exploring what a National Sustainable Development Strategy (NSDS) would look like for New Zealand and published a report in 2005 titled A National Sustainable Development Strategy: How New Zealand measures up against international commitments. The next step was to research international best practice in sustainable development – the findings from which are discussed in further reports.
As a result of our observation that in policy-making, foresight drives strategy, strategy requires reporting, and reporting shapes foresight, we developed three interlinking policy projects: ForesightNZ, StrategyNZ and ReportingNZ. Each of these tools must align if we want New Zealand to develop durable, robust and forward-looking public policy.
The policy projects frame and feed into our research projects, which address a range of significant issues facing New Zealand. We have separated policy projects from research projects in order to emphasise that foresight, strategy and reporting are policy tools that are permanent by nature. In contrast, the research projects are developed in response to a specific area of study and have led to a wide range of reports such as Report 8 – Maori Representation in Parliament, Report 9 – Science Embraced and Report 10 – One Ocean. All our work as part of Project 2058 aims to build and contribute to a national conversation around New Zealand's long-term future. Below are links to the satellite websites for each of the Institute's projects.
Policy Projects
As a result of our observation that foresight drives strategy, strategy requires reporting, and reporting shapes foresight, we have developed three interlinking policy projects: ForesightNZ, StrategyNZ and ReportingNZ.
Research Projects
These diverse topics represent areas where New Zealand has the potential to bring about meaningful change. How New Zealand responds to these issues will shape our public policy landscape for generations to come.

You can imagine the play between fire and Ice and natural elements, when you see the landscape in this magnificent area. We truly can say that at Lake Mývatn you can experience the most and the best of what Iceland has to offer.
Volcanic eruptions have played a crucial role in the formation of the landscape. Whether the plan is to enjoy the landscape, examine unique natural phenomena or take a closer look at the plant and bird life, Lake Mývatn has it all.
A large number of travelers visit Mývatn in the summer, but many believe the lake and its Skutustadagigar surroundings to be no less impressive and mystical in the wintertime with the added attraction of the northern lights.
In winter at Lake Mývatn you have the chance of seeing the northern lights in the dark night sky. Keeping silent, watching the lights dancing through the sky is a magnificent experience.
We will make frequent stops at many restaurants and cafés in the area to eat,drink and toilet stops.
Pickup at your hotel or guesthouse.
Dimmuborgir Lava Park where we see very unusual lava formations and pillars, caves and fissures. Some believe that these rock formations are Trolls that turned to stone.
We will also visit famous locations where parts of the series "Game of Thrones" was filmed like Grjótagjá cave and Höfði cape.
We will visit the geothermal area of Hverir, and stop by the famous Mývatn Nature baths.
Bring warm clothes, waterproof jacket and pants, sunglasses, good hiking shoes/boots. Bathing suit. Don´t forget your camera!
