Popular entertainer cum media practitioner, Gbenga Adewusi, otherwise known as Bayowa, has opened up on why he has not been on air for some time. The Eruwa, Oyo State born movie and music marketer also spoke on the real reasons he is passionate about floating an indigenous and online television stations when ENCOMIUM Weekly had an interview with him on Saturday, July 21, 2012.
What is the latest from the stable of Bayowa Records and Films International?
To God be the glory, I really appreciate my fans, friends and well wishers for their concern and support so far. I have been out of the country for some time, at least for about three months. Since last year, I have been working day and night on some projects which necessitated my travelling abroad.
Even since I came down, I have been attending one meeting or the other. Above all, I give thanks to the Almighty God, the projects are at advance level now. One really needs to step up, move forward and ensure that everything is in tune with what obtains elsewhere in the world in terms of class.
You don't need to be in the same spot forever because life itself is not static. The entertainment industry, to be honest with you, is no more as it was in the recent past. And with the way everything is going digital as regards marketing, it's either you belong or you're out of the business completely.
As the trend is moving along with the modern technology, we all really need to move on with it so that we won't be left out.
Since the release of your album, Subsidy-Boko Haram, not much has been heard of you, why?
A lot of people believed I ran away because of Boko Haram. If at all I ran away, I don't think I should be criticized for taking a step that will guarantee the security of my life. If you watch the video clip, you will know I did a good job. As for me, I like doing things quite differently.
I like working on controversial projects, I like working on what a lot of people believe is difficult. I like involving myself in what other people are running away from. That's exactly is what makes me a phenomenon in the industry. It's not the monetary aspect of it, it's not about what I am going to gain.
A lot of people just hear of Boko Haram, they don't even know anything about them. Whether they are spirits or whatever, they don't know. What you see on television, or pages of newspapers are just a little out of the many devilish activities of the notorious group.
A lot were not included in Subsidy-Boko Haram video but by the time we start our online television, you wil watch the full video, uncensored. It's then people will appreciate all what I did on Boko Haram. I didn't run away because of Boko Haram.
But some people are also saying Bayowa is broke and that's why he is no longer on air, that's why he is off the social radar for quite some time…
(Cuts in) Whatever they like, let them say. I don't care, that's their own cup of tea. I am not after what anybody may be saying about me, I know my goal, I know what I am working on. Bayowa is not broke, he is even much more comfortable and better.
By the time I come out with what's keeping me busy, people will understand the reason I have not been around for some time. But now, I am back and much better and with a new initiative.
Some are also saying you yanked off your programme on Radio Lagos because you couldn't cope with the new tariff and that the entertainment industry is not flourishing as before and all that, can you shed light on the whole thing?
Let me say many things might be responsible for that. When I am not in Nigeria, there is no way you can hear me on radio. I can't be here and there at the same time. There is no way I can be performing here when I am abroad because I am not a spirit, I am not a ghost.
I travelled for about three months, working on a project. There's just no way I could be on radio during that period.
But they could have been playing your jingles and some of your music on the programme if at all you're not around just to fill in the gap before you came back, why didn't you make arrangement for something of such?
What happened was that I handle the programme myself. So, when I am not around, the programme stops automatically there is nothing anybody can play on it on my behalf until I come back.
Now, that you're back, are you ready to switch on again?
Yes, I am fully ready but since I have not been around for some time, there is need for us to sit down again and reorganize some things in the programme.
With the authorities of radio Lagos?
Yes. We are meeting on the issue. May be in two weeks, the programme will be back on air. That's after we must have agreed on certain modalities. It may be the same time we've been using before or another time favourable to both parties.
Since all this while, hasn't there been any replacement for your programme by the station?
There is nothing like that. They can only playing good music, nothing more.
How true is it that you're also terribly ill at a point that you're flown abroad?
People can say anything they like, that's their own business. What I know is that I am back and better. I wasn't flown abroad on account of ill-health, I only travelled for my project.
This project of a thing you're talking about, was it the one on the Yoruba television station you told us about early this year?
Yes, I am working seriously on how to establish a complete indigenous television and at the same time, I am working on online television. As we are all aware, the whole world has gone digital now. You can also testify to it, we are facing piracy in the industry which is a big problem to all of us stakeholders.
We are also facing problem of digital marketing. Before, we used to sell a lot of products outside the country but now if you release any of your jobs today and you're not very careful, even with your master tape, you will discovered there are so many potentials you can tap online which is what we are working on now. We are working on Bayowa TV online.
The whole arrangement is in progress and very soon we shall be through with it and we will hit the screen immediately. We have a lot of things incorporated in Bayowa TV online. At the same time, we are also working on Bayowa Indigenous Television, making two projects at a time.
Each time we have a chat with you, you keep talking of piracy, won't there be an end to that?
That's a big question. For now, we're all in a dilemma. If any marketer tells you he makes profit on anything he released recently, it's just a mere talk. The industry is dying, there is nothing to write home about again unless we want to be deceiving ourselves. Piracy is hitting us hard and we're not getting any support from the government because I believe there are other problems to attend to.
For instance, what profit can you make again when you release your movie or music in the morning and by 12 mid day you found a lot of pirated copies on the road and not that they will pirate just one, they will put like 10 in one DVD and make it cheaper. That's why many of us are investing on other things. But I believe by the special grace of God, we shall get there one day. Very soon, most of my products will be out.
I only want to spend the first three week to face my project at Ajah and by the time I am through with it, people will know where my money is going. So, if they say I am broke, let them say.
Even, Nigeria is broke. If I have been giving you N20,000 before and by now I can't afford more than N10,000, if that's the reason they are saying I am broke, I don't care in as much as I know what I am doing.
Why are you so much passionate about floating an indigenous television station?
Thank you. Presently, we are not enjoying the air waves. They will only tell you they are running indigenous programmes, what they mean is hip hop. Is it hip hop only we have in Nigeria?
We have a lot of artists from other genres of music that are being neglected. We have fuji, juju, apala, Islamic and Christian gospel and many others are no longer enjoying the airwaves. If all other music genres enjoy at least 50 percent of what hip hop is enjoying, the lives of the artists in those genres will be much more better.
Give all these radio or television stations fuji, juju or gospel album, they won't play them but if it's hip hop, they will play it from morning till night. If care is not taken, our culture will fade off. That's why I am working tirelessly on floating an indigenous television station that will protect Yoruba culture, home and abroad. That's why I am using this opportunity to call on the Yoruba state governors to give me their support for this project.
I am Yoruba to the core, I want to see our ways of life on top, I want people's support for both the indigenous and the online TV stations. I want to get everything registered soon as that we can begin operation.

An epiphany occurred at the mirror while I dripped puddle on the floor.
Bare, alone, and scared of my reflection, I heard a still small voice:
This body loved enough to give life to two other people.
I stopped a moment and pondered that love. Those beautiful tiny faces and the work ahead of me as I help to shaped them to be like their Creator.
And then the wind was nearly knocked out of me as I realized:
He is scarred too.
The one who loves me, the one who gave me Life everlasting: He, too, bears scars.
His skin puckers and folds over a line in his abdomen.
He loved me enough to allow his body to be scarred and broken, too.
And that should be enough.
539. Scar created, life given

This is Africa — a continent, not a country (Photo: Thinkstock)
I have lived overseas for the past seven years and have had my fair share of silly questions about South Africa. A typical exchange might go like this:
"Where are you from?" asks a friendly traveler (from a country I won't mention to prevent national embarrassment).
"South Africa," I'll reply.
"South Africa! Cool, which country?" he'll ask.
"Ummm, South Africa, the country right at the bottom of Africa?" I'll say.
"Oh, OK," he'll slowly reply, sounding slightly confused.
News flash: Africa is a continent. And it is not split into two. There's no North Africa, where people are always fighting, and there's no South Africa, a vast mysterious area famous for wild animals and safaris. There is a country called South Africa, but it's not all wild animals and people living in grass huts, with no technology or global awareness. It's a modern, multicultural country with a rich history and a progressive people. (You've heard of Nelson Mandela, right?)
That there is Nelson Mandela, on a South African bank note (Photo: Thinkstock)
Here are some other questions that make us want to laugh at best — or worse, silently back away in shock, shaking our head and thinking, "Did I really just get asked that?"
1. But you're white. Are your parents black?
Biology and history aren't your strong suits, huh? Or maybe you've never read a newspaper, watched the news, or paid attention to the important things happening outside your bubble. Like in America, Europeans, mainly the Dutch and the British, colonized South Africa and therefore there are white people here — lots of us.
Can you tell who the South Africans are? (Photo: Thinkstock)
2. You're from Africa, so do you speak African?
Would you ever ask people from the U.S. if they speak "American"? Or someone from Asia if he or she speaks "Asian"? There are about 55 different countries in Africa (depending on whom you talk to) resulting in over 3,000 different African languages. So, no, nobody speaks "African." In South Africa we have 11 official languages and an incredible multicultural diversity, thus we call ourselves the "Rainbow Nation."

3. Your English is excellent, why is that so?
Like with question No. 1, please go back and check your history books.
4. Do you have pizza, coffee, and hamburgers in South Africa?
A friend of mine living in New York City was recently asked if there is pizza in South Africa. She was too traumatized to give the proper deadpan comedy answer of "No, we just eat freshly hunted antelope, which we cook over an open fire, and the whole village is invited." Authentic cuisine from all four corners of the Earth can easily be found in South Africa: Thai, Arabic, Indian, and Italian are just a few. And they're delicious.

South Africans don't ride elephants, but we do keep a safe distance away from them (Photo: Diego Avila)
5. Are there wild animals in your backyard? Did you ride to school on an elephant?
I once answered, just for fun, "Yes, outside my house there are lions and elephants." She believed me, and I might have created a slight misconception about South Africa in the Czech Republic. Of course, we don't ride elephants to school — or anywhere for that matter. Imagine the logistics and the cleanup crew needed. Taxpayers wouldn't be happy. Wild animals live in protected nature reserves, easily accessible by car or guided walking tours.
6. How did you get here to Europe? How long does it take to drive from Florida to South Africa?
In his 20s, my dad hitchhiked through Africa to get to the U.K., which you can do, but I just hopped on a plane. What's that? Yes, we have planes. And to answer your second question, if you drive through Central and South America, swing a left to Brazil, fight your way through dense tropical jungle, and then hop a boat, you just might make it.

This is Johannesburg where rhinos don't roam the runways at the airport (Photo: Angela de Klerk)
7. When pilots land at the airport, do they need to be careful of roaming wild animals?
South African pilots have to take special flying courses such as "How to land without hitting an animal" and "What not to do when an elephant charges your plane."
Be serious. Land in O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, and you will feel like you have arrived in some superduper First-World country — with a runway clear of hungry, snapping animals and no angry elephants in sight.
Modern highways — yes, they exist in South Africa! (Photo: Angela de Klerk)
8. Do you have electricity and modern technology?
Would the country that built the Gautrain, Africa's first modern rapid rail and bus service, have problems with electricity or modern technology? I don't think so. In the cities, houses (generally made of brick or cement) have lights, TV, and high-speed Internet, and most people carry a cellphone.
Unfortunately not everywhere in South Africa is quite so developed. With about 23 million people living in poverty, there are regions that have no access to electricity or running water, let alone Internet and paved roads.

9. You're from Johannesburg? I visited Kenya and I met a guy named John, know him?
Would a person living in Romania know your friend who works at Marks & Spencer in London? Don't be ridiculous.
10. Do you have big cities and proper roads?
Heard of Cape Town? There's a reason why it's one of the world's 6 hottest destinations right now. Do you seriously think a country would host the World Cup without simple facilities such as roads or construction companies capable of building stadiums? South Africa has extensive networks of quality highways and urban roads complete with "robots" (our fun way to describe traffic lights), wonderful architecture, and contemporary skyscrapers.

11. Do giraffes eat birds?
Not a very common question, but I've heard it often enough and it carries just enough stupidity to piss us off for asking it.

A few minor and easily rectified glitches with the equipment also have been reported.
Alachua County voters are having a generally smooth experience casting ballots this morning, but some are showing up at the wrong precinct because they have moved without notifying elections officials, said Supervisor Pam Carpenter.
Carpenter said more wrong-precinct voters seem to be turning up today because the presidential preference primary has brought out people who have not voted in some time. They are given precinct-to-precinct transfer card so they can vote in the proper location.
A few minor and easily rectified glitches with the equipment also have been reported, Carpenter said.
"General elections always bring out maybe the folks who haven't been as regular as others," Carpenter said. "We've had a couple of places where we've had to shut the machine off and turn it back on. There would be a little hiccup."
Carpenter added that an organization is doing exit polling at Precinct 2, which is in LaCrosse.

SO here we are in the early part of Dec, yet we find ourselves having an annoying conversation over the Fiscal Cliff... you know, that "deal" from about 1 1/2 year ago to avoid the Debt Ceiling debacle? the one the Super Committee of Bolles-Simpson was supposed to avoid? the one the Pres and Congress have ignored Since Dec 2011? Yeah- that one, and THAT speaks to why it is so annoying.
IF you told your boss that an important "project" was due in Dec, but you talked your way out of it THEN ignored it THEN put the deadline (and thru it the 'company') in jeopardy THEN kept pointing at the employee inb the next cubicle (who is pointing at you) as being THEIR fault.. Do you think the Boss cares WHY you missed the deadline, or whose fault it is? Their concern would be "WHY are you putting the Company in danger and WHAT can we do now?".. and then immediate resolution to solve as best as possible, to move on to future business-
But in Government, we are actually talking OPENLY and EASILY about going over a Cliff/deadline that would harm our Country.
It would spark random and massive Spending Cuts.
It would prompt an Across-the-Board Tax rate increase.
It would allow Payroll taxes to go back up.
It would allow the AMT (alternative minimum tax) to impact millions.
It would allow so many bad things to be unleashed on our frail economy it is mind numbing...
YET our leaders feel that going over- is a REAL and ACCEPTABLE answer... and we CHOSE THEM!
I took my best shot on solving the tax and spending side of it (see prior posts), and at least I put something on the table.. but the elected officials struggled with this for a great length of time and haven't even had real discussions yet? WHY? and more importantly- HOW will America hold them accountable?
I sincerely wish our fearless leaders would come together and make real, substantial, fair negotiations- this would not only be good for our financial future, but HUGE in getting America back to believing in its representative system.
Think about this- WHEN was the last time you believed your leadership TRULY was dealing in good faith?
The time for that is NOW, and the time for rhetorical posturing is OVER.

Yoga this Saturday at 8:30 AM.
Member Recognition Night
Friday – March 14th, 2014
After getting sick this past weekend with the stomach flu I lost nearly 10 pounds. Not what I wanted. Some of you may not like to hear this but I've been trying to gain muscle mass (weight). I don't have much to lose so I felt like I withered away. And the guys are always commenting on how small I already look. This morning while teaching the 6:30 am class I caught my reflection in the window and I thought while looking at my upper body, "wow, you put the weight back on already. Nice job." Remember how important positive self talk is? I was talking myself up. But then I had the unfortunate realization I was wearing two sweatshirts. Have fun, make it an awesome day, and don't forget to laugh at yourself.
Focus on good technique. Everyone will be increasing weight and moving to a 5 rep scheme every two minutes next week. Get ready to get even more awesome.
Workout Strategy
Walking Lunges? Why are we doing so much squatting? My legs can't take anymore. Let us look at this from my prospective. I design the workouts for the week with the knowledge that about 80% of our members come three times per week. But they don't all come Monday, Wednesday, Friday. If this is your fourth day this week then you are probably pretty sore. Be smart. The program is not designed for you to come everyday. Rest Days are important. If you are really sore than pick a lighter weight for the lunges then you would normally do. Today is what CrossFit calls a chipper. You will complete all the repetitions of one movement before moving on to the next. The good news is once the movement is done there is not another round so you will not see that movement again. We will see a wide range of times today. As you may have noticed this week is more of a strength week. Today we will see skilled and strength movements. The pace will have to be slower but the work load is heavier. Don't be afraid to spend the time completing the more difficult movement or weight. Try not to scale down today (unless this is your 4th day). The shoulder to overhead can be Press, Push Press, Push Jerk, or Split Jerk. Just make it happen.

Hmmm....my first blog ever........I asked my brother why he has a blog; I mean, who cares about me. But after reading a few blogs on the issues of wife-led relationships and submissive husbands I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents.
A little background: The intimacy of my marriage isn't what I want it to be. It's that simple. I love my wife, fantastic woman and great mom. I've tried everything I can think of to improve our love life to little or no avail. In the past, we've played "games" ie I'd be her slave for the week preceeding a weekend getaway. Great fun but unsistainable. I'd overwhelm her.
I've bought her the book from Aroundherfinger.com and asked her to read it. It was a huge step for me, verbalizing to her about my feelings and willingness/desire for her to take charge, especially of our love life. She hasn't read it yet, but the problem I think we will face is that she isn't that interested in sex. So the premise of teasing me, keeping me aroused but denied requires that she makes an outward effort of sexuality to me. I have concerns this will be difficult for her. I can't keep up the effort of submission in a vaccuum.
As of this post, I've given her the book (3 weeks ago!) and hope that she'll get around to reading it this weekend. If she decides that she can't tease me etc. this could be a short blog. Time will tell.

I have previously shared a series of posts on Primary One which you may find useful:
What to and how to prep for Primary One Prep
Poppy's on Stellar too so I recognized Dan the Flying Man and the words "brave", "scary", "frightened" etc are also on her spelling list!
I must say i really like the way they are teaching now as compared to when I was in school. So many more fun methods!
And haha Poppy also complained at getting 4 pages of writing writing writing!!!
I think the Stellar approach is good in the sense that it exposes children to more literature and encourage a love for reading. But what I get from friends is that they do not know how the literature based approach works so the 'visibility' is not there. Hence, as Liza puts it, my CSI work. :p But yes, the approach is fun and am glad to know that Poppy is enjoying school too! Ooooooo... she's got 4 pages too? This, I have gripes man. Will PM you. :pDelete

I awoke high above the Earth. High enough that I could see the planet like a great globe in front of me. All around was the deep blackness of space and distant stars. The anonymous escort was beside me. We barely acknowledged each other. Our relationship in a sense more distant than in the early years, but in another sense closer, more equal. He was helping me hold steadily in place.
Keeping a fixed altitude I drifted steadily around the planet. Pausing occasionally to view certain continents then drifting on to view others. The drifting was easy, it was almost as if I was stationary and the planet was turning.
I paused high over the Indian Ocean because I could see much of the world from there. I could see the great Eurasian continent, Australia and Africa. As I watched, the escort prompted me on how to attune my vision. I followed the prompts.
I saw the collective of human auras of each continent, of each country, of each race and group. Different shades and colour according to the collective characters of the people who inhabited that area.
Each country was a different shade or colour. I "slid" my vision up and down the spectrum of human auric light, as if tuning a radio, and noticing that I could narrow or widen the scope, so as to take in a narrower or wider range of human auric light.
I was immediately struck by the difference in the auras of the western nations to those of the non-western nations. From the colours of the nations came radiations of their characters, so that I could both see and feel the auras of the nations. The difference in colour and radiation between the western and non-western nations was stark.
The escort prompted me on how to use the zoom effect of out-of-body vision. I zoomed my vision in on the collective aura of one of the countries, going right down to examine the auras of its individuals and observing the colours of their characters. Then I zoomed my vision back out to again view the collective national aura. Zooming in and out, pausing here and there, taking in as much as I could, making sure of what I was seeing.¹
In earlier excursions I had been taught how to reach out an extension of myself with a node of conscious at the end of the extension, and how to "dip" that extension into something else. Whatever is within that something else is known by the extended node of consciousness, and the knowledge is transferred via the line of extension back to myself, so that I may "know" that something else as if I am inside it, and as if it is me. This is an ability of the elastic quality of consciousness, and is more serviceable when out-of-body than when within it.²
Using the elastic quality of consciousness, I reached out an extension of myself and dipped the extension into the auric colours of various countries, and in so doing I knew the character of the colour of the country that I dipped in to. This method is more intense, accurate and precise than reading the radiations from the colours. The radiations gave an objective sense; dipping provided a subjective experience. I was able to look around within a nation's character and examine its makeup.
Observing individual's colours and their blending into collective colour, showed me how the character of individuals makes the character of nations. And I saw that there was irony to this process, for individuals could not see that their nations are products of themselves.
Drifting high above the Earth, using vision of the colours, and receiving the radiations of the colours, visually zooming in and out, and dipping an extension of consciousness into the colours for further details and accuracy, I examined the many races, countries, groups and institutions of humanity. I examined the collectives and the individuals who comprised those collectives.
I saw for myself that the colour of a collective aura, be it the aura/character of a race, nation, society, tribe, institution, or any other collective group, results from the blending together of the auras/characters of the individuals within that group. I clearly saw that although influence occurs, individuals are not a product of societies, but societies are products of individuals.
And I saw that the colours of individuals may blend to make a collective colour nothing like their individual colours. I saw that the colours of the individuals of some nations blended more readily with each other, while the individuals of other nations blended less, and the same for groups and institutions. This is because the individuals of some nations and groups are group minded, whereas some are more individually minded.
When I dipped into the colours I experienced the people's personal qualities and characteristics, their driving attitudes, and their individual and collective intent. I saw how their collective intent resulted from their individual intent.
With each dip into a collective aura, I not only knew the current condition of that group, I also knew its history. I saw the long histories of the collective souls of the different races, their circumstances, the effect of their geography, their religion, their ideas and thinking, their trials and battles, their advancements and their mistakes. I understood things about them that previously I would not have imagined.
And what I saw evoked awe, concern, sadness, hope, amazement, wonderment. It caused me to experience that sense of stretched capacity of mind and heart that comes with suddenly taking on a greater view of reality than one had before, a view that strains the soul and changes oneself and one's outlook forever.

|James Eckersley
|Real name:
|First Appearance:
|ION, Incorporated
|Private Military Contractor
James Eckersley is a minor character in ArmA II: Private Military Company. A British national and an experienced veteran, he is a private military contractor in the service of ION, Incorporated.
James Eckersley was born in the United Kingdom and served in the British Armed Forces. At some undisclosed point he left the military and went to work for ION, Incorporated. James applied for the position of 'Security Team Member' and was almost immediately accepted and sent to participate in Operation: Black Gaunlet, deploying to Takistan to provide security for a team of UN weapons inspectors there.
As a new recruit, Eckersley distanced himself from the other ION contractors. He seemed possessed of a quiet and unobtrusive personality, although when it came time for battle and his skills were tested, he was known to perform with great bravery and martial prowess.
"Heads up, boss. We got movement."
- ―James Eckersley[src]
Eckersley was one of the original seven ION security personnel dispatched to the US Air Force Base near Zargabad to begin their mission by awaiting the arrival of the UN investigations team, which was looking into Takistan's abandoned nuclear weapons program. The team made it there in two ION SUVs, with Brian Frost, Mark Reynolds, Henry Asano, Tanny Radcliffe, and Patrick Dixon in the lead vehicle, and Roland Saunderson and Eckersley in the second.
Eckersley would often find himself paired with Saunderson, a South African, during the course of the mission. Upon arriving at the landing zone for a helicopter with the UN team on board, Mark Reynolds warned the ION contractors to stay on their guard and patrol the area. However, Eckersley and Saunderson remained behind to guard the vehicles, parked near the center of the base. A few minutes later, Eckersley's sharp eyes detected some unusual activity on the edge of the base, and he radioed Reynolds to inform him of this. Mark replied to all of the ION contractors that use of deadly force was now authorized.
He organized the group into two teams: Team Sword and Team Shield. Eckersley was paired with Tanny Radcliffe, Patrick Dixon, and Roland Saunderson in Team Shield, and was ordered to stand their ground and defend the area. Within a few moments, Takastani militiamen and insurgents were swarming towards the base. The contractors repelled the first assault with ease. However, it soon became clear that there was a sniper with a bead on them, so Reynolds instructed Team Sword to move out and find his location. Brian Frost took this task on his shoulders; he subsequently discovered the guerilla with a high-grade rifle perched atop a tower nearby, shooting him dead.
After a short wait, the UN team finally arrived via helicopter. James Eckersley promptly accompanied them as they insisted they start the investigation right away. Reynolds supervised them as they traveled to an abandoned factory complex nearby. Inside, were important records left for them by a Takistani contact. Eckersley and Saunderson were chosen to accompany Mark inside with the UN team; the other contractors stood guard outside.
After two hours, the local Takistanis came to protest at the factory against ION's presence, and the ION team was forced to drive them away. Meanwhile, inside, the UN team, led by Dr. Ivan Ruce, a Frenchman, discovered important information pertaining to a new contact, a corrupt official who had been involved in Takistan's nuclear weapons program named Abdul.
"Shield will stay here until the route is secure."
Abdul was hiding in a house somewhere in central Zargabad, a city in central Takistan which was a rallying-point for various guerilla groups. The New Takistani Army (NTA) bombed the city on an almost daily basis, in futile attempts to force the guerillas out of hiding.
Team Sword and Team Shield were reshuffled en route to Zargabad. Team Sword was now Reynolds, Dixon, Frost, Radcliffe, and Asano, while Saunderson, James Eckersley, and an unidentified third contractor made up Team Shield. The idea was for Sword to launch an offensive operation, while Shield stayed behind to guard the UN clients. As the road through Zargabad was mined with explosives and brimming with armed insurgents, Reynolds decided Team Sword should proceed on foot through the city, clearing the road for Team Shield to follow in an SUV, along with Dr. Ruce and his associates.
When the route was successfully cleared, Team Shield brought the UN team to their contact, Abdul, who was located in his house with some important documents he intended to show Dr. Ruce. However, suddenly, an air strike was launched by the NTA, leveling much of the already-ruined Zargabad. Reynolds and Eckersley hurried the UN team into an SUV as quickly as possible, with Eckersley covering the vehicles with his weapon in case of any unexpected volleys by insurgents nearby. Eckersley, Reynolds, and Roland Saunderson beat a hasty retreat with the UN team, while the rest of Team Sword was left behind to rescue Abdul.
The Takistani contact, however, was never able to make it, and the contractors lost sight of him during the NTA air strike. The team was subsequently split up, with Asano running off by himself, Tanny getting killed under a collapsing building, Frost being left behind for dead, and Dixon attempting to flee the city alone in their vehicle.
As for Team Shield, they were forced to make a pause driving through the city, possibly returning fire to insurgents which shot at them, although this action would be one of folly and defy the basic security rules when protecting an important client, much less a group of them. Either way, the unidentified contractor from Team Shield was promptly shot and killed by a sniper, prompting the rest of his team to fall back. They eventually made it to an ION compound just outside the city, to safety.
Meanwhile, back in Zargabad, Frost and Henry Asano regrouped with Patrick Dixon, only to find that their SUV had been destroying, stranding them on the outskirts of the doomed city. They contacted Mark Reynolds, who promptly dispatched an ION helicopter to rescue them.
After regrouping with Team Sword on the ground, Eckersley and Roland Saunderson formed a convoy. Team Sword, driving an Armored SUV, would proceed ahead of Team Shield, driving two unarmored vehicles with the UN investigators inside. Hopefully, Team Sword would draw all the fire from the expected ambushes on the way to the Proving Grounds, a nuclear testing site where the UN team was planning to uncover more information pertaining to their investigation.
Although briefly inconvenienced by Checkpoint Charlie, an American outpost which refused to grant the contractors clearance, the team was soon on its way. They were forced to deal with a number of NTA troops and guerilla ambushes, which were held off by Brian Frost, manning the minigun on the Armored SUV.
The team finally stopped short of the Proving Grounds, which were heavily guarded by a Takistani Armored Division. Frost and Henry Asano were forced to proceed ahead of the group and destroy the tanks and APC's with an anti-material rifle. While they were gone, Patrick Dixon took charge of the convoy, with James Eckersley and Roland Saunderson remaining with him and the UN team.
"Eyes on target."
- ―James Eckersley[src]
With the NTA resistance cleared by Frost and Asano, the ION vehicles moved up and the team established itself at a mysterious bunker in the middle of the Proving Grounds, where the UN team worked tirelessly into the night to study the storage items inside, convinced they were fission materials needed for nuclear weapons.
As the night grew bitter cold, Patrick Dixon built a fire to keep the miserable contractors warm as they stood guard outside, around the bunker. Frost and Asano patrolled the perimeter, while Eckersley and Saunderson each guarded one of the SUVs. Suddenly, the team came under attack by unknown UAV's (unmanned aerial vehicles), which unleashed a devastating barrage on the camp. When Frost began to get alarmed and the other contractors dove for cover, Eckersley silently left his post and stared off into the sky, walking calmly into the open. He tried to see the UAVs as they attacked, but was forced to flee for cover when bullets began striking the SUV nearest him.
After a brief exchange of fire, a UAV blasted in the Armored SUV, destroying it. Brian Frost ordered the contractors to scatter and draw fire away from the vehicles and the bunker, which they did, subsequently regrouping in the ruins of several buildings not far away. Their combined firepower and Patrick Dixon's hacking skills enabled them to bring down the UAVs, although all the noise and explosions which occurred during the battle startled the nearest guerilla factions and stirred up the NTA.
The next morning, a massive group of Takistani guerillas assaulted the ION campsite. The contractors were able to repel the assault after considerable difficulty. James Eckersley remained pinned down during the majority of the fight, although when ordered by Patrick Dixon into combating a specific target, he would openly advance under heavy fire to do so.
All of the ION contractors performed bravely and after several frustrating attempts to penetrate the determined defense, the insurgents fled. Despite being new to the security business, Eckersley proved himself during this battle.
Mark Reynolds, who had been lending backup during the fighting from the air in an ION helicopter, shortly landed and spoke with the UN team. Nuclear materials had been discovered in the Takistani bunker, and Dr. Ruce was eager to remove them as soon as possible. It was agreed that Team Shield would escort the investigators in the lead SUV, while Mark Reynolds followed in the second, transporting the materials. Meanwhile, Dixon, Frost, and Asano would provide air cover from the helicopter, scouting ahead for any ambushes that might attempt to waylay the convoy en route back to Zargabad.
Team Spear (Those in helicopter) detected several ambush attempts ahead, and, attacking from the helicopter, successfully neutralized large numbers of NTA troops and insurgents. Every time unusual activity ahead of the route was spotted from the air, Team Spear would radio Reynolds with the information. Reynolds, in turn, would radio Team Shield to temporarily halt their vehicle while Team Spear neutralized the threat.
This tactic worked almost all the way to Zargabad, despite the ION helicopter getting damaged by gunfire from the ground.
After the convoy had proceeded safely through central Takistan, Brian was instructed to land the helicopter at an ION outpost in Zargabad for repairs, dropping Asano off at the Zargabad checkpoint to wait for the arrival of the convoy. Despite damage to the chopper's airframe, he was able to continue to the nearest ION compound and land it for repairs.
However, when the convoy finally arrived, Asano noted with alarm only Team Shield and their UN clients were present; Reynolds and the nuclear materials were nowhere in sight. James Eckersley and Roland Saunderson were every bit as surprised when the second SUV was not behind them. Apparently, Reynolds had driven away at the last minute. When Brian Frost contacted Reynolds to demand his location, the situation became clear: The nuclear materials the UN team had recovered were of Chinese origin. Reynolds had gone rogue, having been bribed by the Chinese to dispose of the materials and prevent the UN from examining them. It would not only expose China's involvement in Takistan's nuclear program, it would likely cause a major diplomatic crisis between China and NATO, which, led by the US, was conducting peacekeeping duties in Takistan.
The decision then lay with Brian Frost and Patrick Dixon, who were at the ION compound plotting out their next course of action, along with James Eckersley and Roland Saunderson. Eckersley had not heard the full conversation with Reynolds; he had been unable to listen to that frequency and thus had no idea what was going on. However, by Dixon's increasing state of agitation, it is most likely that he deduced something was up. Still, James kept his distance, only watching Dixon and Frost discuss what they should do from afar.
Esckersley's fate is decided by the player's course of action, which lies with Brian Frost. If Frost tries to take down Reynolds, this results in one outcome (Termination) and if he sides with Reynolds to murder the UN investigators and silence them permanently, this results in another possible outcome (Deception).
Brian Frost and Patrick Dixon both agreed what needed to be done in the end: Reynolds had to be stopped. At the time, the UN team was being escorted to a safer location by other ION operatives; Reynolds was plotting to have the team murdered by sending in a mortar squad to ambush them along the way.
Determined to stop him, Dixon convinced Eckersley and Saunderson to side with him, and, together, they set off to mobilize an ION strike team and stop the ambush before it could happen. Meanwhile, Frost and Henry Asano hurried south to intercept Reynolds at another company compound, where he was preparing to escape Takistan with the nuclear materials via helicopter. However, Dixon's plan failed because Reynolds' mortar team were prepared for him.
Eckersley fought loyally alongside Dixon to the end, but was shot and killed during the crossfire by one of Reynolds's contractors, who fired two shots into Eckersley's chest.
Brian Frost decides that he should side with Reynolds to prevent an international crisis, but when Patrick Dixon attempts to leave and stop the rogue ION operative, he is fire on by Frost. Dixon became Brian's worst enemy now, so Frost had no choice but to kill him. Eckersley witnessed the shooting with horror; he then raised his own rifle and let out a burst of fire towards Frost, since apparently he was unclear about what was happening and could find no logical explanation for Brian's behavior.
Frost killed first Roland Saunderson, who was standing nearby, followed by Eckersley, who was downed with a bullet to the head.
- James Eckersley is named after Jamie Eckersley, a member of Bohemia Interactive's fan community. In October of 2010, Bohemia released the teaser trailer for ArmA II: Private Military Company, which featured two ION operatives arguing bitterly over whether or not to side with Reynolds. Bohemia and the ArmA production staff then announced that they wanted fans to come up with names for the two contractors featured in the trailer or get their own name used by sending in an ArmA-themed joke about Chuck Norris. By November 2, a lucky fan known as Jamie Eckersley had sent in the best ArmA-themed Chuck Norris joke, and thus the name 'James Eckersley' was used for a minor character in the game.
- Oddly enough, the character in the completed version of the game known as 'James Eckersley' is not the same character from the teaser trailer, despite the contest intending to name the two distinct contractors in the trailer. The character from the teaser trailer, the Black Cap Contractor, only appeared as a corpse, already killed as part of Patrick Dixon's ill-fated strike team during the Mission 'Termination'. Ironically, he fought alongside the named James Eckersley during his final moments.

The Other Side of the Marijuana Leaf
"It's not like alcohol. People metabolize it differently. There are different potencies. So there's really no solution in terms of saying 'You're now at the limit.' I just don't think there's enough research that we can say, 'Wait X amount of hours before getting on the road.' I don't know whether it's five hours or ten hours or the next day. We just don't know."
spokesperson, Colorado Department of Transportation
|Getty Images
Marijuana impairment levels are not well enough understood. While alcohol impairment is detectable with the use of a breathalyzer, it requires a blood sample to conduct a blood test that will quantify the amount of marijuana residue present on the blood of a user. This is not something that can be done at the side of the road. Police are required to obtain a search warrant before embarking on anything so invasive as extracting a blood sample from a suspect.
When does the public's right to know -- administered through safety standards when an accident occurs, and police investigate the cause -- come up hard against the invasion of privacy? Colorado came up with a legal definition of marijuana impairment standard: five nanograms of THC per millilitre of blood. But how to enforce it?
In the 1980s marijuana marketed to the pubic averaged between three to four percent THC, the psychoactive ingredient in the popular leaf. Selectively bred marijuana now averages over twelve percent THC, a far more potent strain altogether. Some strains reach 30% and it's possible to readily combust marijuana wax with butane, boosting the THC content to the height of 90% THC content.
Additionally, marijuana can now be ingested as well as smoked, leaving the way open to over-use.
Colorado hospital emergency rooms have experienced a huge rise in the number of patients presenting in a panicked and disoriented state resulting from excess THC intake. Among them a doubling of patients between the ages of 13 and 14. A study conducted in 2014 of Colorado teens in drug treatment found that 74% had shared someone's medical marijuana, an average of 50 times.
A 2013 report by the Rocky Mountain High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area, concluded that Colorado teens were 50% likelier to use marijuana than their peers outside the state. Most individuals who are curious enough to try marijuana are high school students. Those in their 20s represent 14% of new users, while 22.7% of students in grade 12 report having smoked at least once a month, among whom 6.5% claimed to have smoked daily.
- Studies reveal that those in the teens who begin smoking marijuana while teens become significantly more likely to have a future dependency on the weed compared to people who started smoking later in life. The marijuana industry rolls out especially designed products geared to appeal to young consumers. Those products range from cannabis-infused soda, cannabis-infused chocolate taffy to cannabis-infused jujubes. No, really!
|Getty Images
So those who agitate for greater availability and lesser penalties for marijuana users must, or should also consider the greater social impacts of loosening laws and blinking at the common use of marijuana in society. There are obvious consequences not to be discounted that are of no value whatever to society. Legal marijuana equates to more use of the stuff and the greater the temptation and availability to the young. If it's legal what harm could there be in it?
Per capita consumption of alcohol has been reduced by 20% since 1980, and while one-third of Americans smoked tobacco in 1980, fewer than one-fifth now do. Driving fatalities resulting from drunk driving had decreased by over 50% since 1982. The backlash against smoking and driving while under the influence of alcohol by public agencies and civil social groups like MADD, have been partly responsible; banning smoking in public places, higher taxes on those products and stiffer fines for bars helped.
But some twenty U.S. states and the District of Columbia since 1996 have approved medical marijuana laws, enabling people who can present a doctor's prescription for marijuana for pain relief or medical symptom-relief of chronic conditions are able to legally procure and use marijuana for health purposes. At the conclusion of 2012 in Oregon, over 56,000 medical marijuana-use regimes were permitted. Of that number only nine doctors wrote the prescriptions of enablement.
Yet within Oregon's medical-marijuana patients at the end of the year a mere 4% suffered from cancer, while 1% were identified with HIV/AIDS. The large majority cited unspecified "pain" requiring relief with the use of medical marijuana. Of those nine doctors who wrote the majority of prescriptions none was a pain specialist. Fewer than 2% of Californians having permits to use marijuana have HIV, glaucoma, multiple sclerosis or cancer.
The typical California card holder for medical marijuana have been identified through a study, to be in their 30s, healthy, male, and with a history of drug or alcohol abuse. Again, a handful of doctors sign thousands of marijuana recommendations, after a cursory medical examination. In Los Angeles an NBC news investigator visited a dispensary, was examined by an acupuncturist and massage therapist, and received a prescription signed by a doctor who was nowhere in evidence.
Where proponents of marijuana legalization are correct in their campaign, is when they point out the punitive enforcement of marijuana laws that inflict disproportionate punishment on minority groups compared with white users. The wealthy and the connected, those within the hierarchy of the social order use hard drugs and they rarely get punished for anything, since they rarely are apprehended.
Now here's a really surprising factoid; there are more opportunities within the illegal American marijuana market for procurement than one realizes. The market, it seems, is far larger than the market for coffee. With legalization it will undergo additional expansion. Academics envision a legal, noncommercial marijuana market. But this is not how the free enterprise (capitalist) commercial market works. And marijuana retailers under a legal market will tend to set up shop and be available in poor neighbourhoods.
The taxes collected with the sale of marijuana will also disproportionately affect those living in restrained pecuniary circumstances. It is those same communities where people will be affected by addiction, and where recovery services will be required, just as occurs with alcohol addiction. And the dreadful health effects of tobacco smoking impacting on people's health, will be transferred to marijuana, for society cannot yet know the full impact of its new recreational habit.
On one side of the ledger is freedom to indulge in a benevolent drug habit for recreation and for health reasons, without fear of penalty from illegal activities under the law. On the other is the add-on impact of greater availability, and the relaxation of legal proscription. The question is which end of the scale weighs more heavily toward public good or the reverse.

With only 500 built, and probably far fewer surviving today, the VL SS Group A has turned out to be quite a valuable homologation special.
In addition, less than half of the 500 built feature the somewhat controversial (and still rather confusing) 'Energy Polariser'
This is one of those, complete with Brock's signature that he refused to give to cars without the Polariser.
Build number 480 has everything in original order, from its 137kW/345Nm 5.0-litre V8 to the spare wheel in the back.
The pictures from Lorbek show the car looking immaculate inside and out.
With a relatively low 52,796km showing, Lorbek reckons owning this thing is better than having money in the bank. Considering the skyrocketing value of more than a few Aussie V8s, we reckon they might be right.
So, that brings us to the asking price for this particular example. For only $128,980, you can experience the blistering 7.6 seconds it takes the VL SS Group A to hit 100km/h, or its 15.54 quarter mile time, as tested by MOTOR.
Compare that to the $29,600 it would have cost when new, and take into account that in 1986 that money is comparable to around $75K for us in 2017, and you're looking at a pretty solid profit margin… especially if it's a one-owner car.
Keep in mind that prices will become less predictable once Holden shuts the factory doors for good.
You can check out the advertisement on TradeUniqueCars if you're feeling like you need a bit of VL in your life.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) recently announced the limited-overs teams for India's tour to Ireland and England. The teams were declared two T20I matches against Ireland on June 27 and 29, and for the 3 ODIs and 3 T20Is to be played in the month of July in England.
The team saw many players being rewarded for their exploits in the ongoing Indian Premier League 2018 season. The squad also saw some major names being dropped from the squad and with the ICC World Cup 2019 just over a year away; it gives some major hints about what selectors think about the look of the squad for the mega event.
However, some performers in the Indian Premier League might have thought that they would be included in the limited overs squad for Ireland and England.
We have five such players who will feel unlucky not to be a part of the senior team for Ireland and England.
(All the stats updated till May 9, 2018)
Royal Challengers Bangalore quick Mohammed Siraj has picked 7 wickets in 7 games and has impressed a lot with his ability to bowl yorkers at the end and be the death bowler for RCB, who have struggled to defend scores of 200 or nearer.
Siraj's best of 3/25 this IPL season came against SRH, though in the losing cause. His has played 3 T20Is for India and has taken 3 wickets so far, at an average of 49.33 and economy of 12.33. It was expected of selectors to show more faith in Siraj while strengthening their bench keeping the 2019 World Cup in mind.
Sandeep Sharma has been at his best for Sunrisers Hyderabad, picking 7 wickets for 6 matches so far. His economy of 5.26 is one of the best in the IPL 2018 so far. He managed to keep his place in the team, despite coming in to replace Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who got injured.
Sandeep has the ability to swing the new ball both ways and bowl yorkers at death have drawn parallels with his more illustrious teammate. England would have suited Sandeep's bowling style and would have given India a very good backup for Bhuvneshwar.
Rishabh Pant has had a superlative season in IPL 2018 so far. He has scored 393 runs in 10 matches at an average of 39.30 and a strike rate of 173.12, which is amongst the top 5 of the tournament. His highest score of 85 came against RCB.
Pant has been seen as the successor to MS Dhoni in the limited overs scene and was seen playing for India in the Nidahas Trophy. But the rise of Dinesh Karthik, both as a batsman and keeper par excellence, has put Pant on the back burner. Despite his exploits in the T20 cricket, including the second fastest century in the format, consistency issues have pegged Pant a lot.
However, selectors still have him on their radar and with age on his side, Pant has more to offer in coming times.
Krunal Pandya has been one of the outstanding players of the Indian Premier League in the last season and the ongoing one of IPL 2018. He has outscored his more famous brother Hardik, making 181 runs in 10 matches with a strike rate of 148.36 and has taken 9 wickets in 10 matches with a best of 3/28.
Krunal has the makings of being a very good long-term all-rounder for India and was highly expected to make it to the limited overs India team to UK tour. Krunal's consistency with both ball and bat has been excellent for Mumbai Indians, something that will sooner or later earn him a spot in the Indian team.
Sanju Samson has scored 332 runs in 10 matches with the best of 92* at a strike rate of 141.27. He had a very good start to the season with consistent scores, but his form has faded away as the tournament progressed and maybe it was the reason, that he was absent from the India squad to England.
However, Samson is the future of Indian cricket and in future, he will be the backbone of the Indian team batting and even contribute with the gloves, as he is also an excellent wicketkeeper. He has shown in the IPL 2018 that he can build an innings, something he did against Royal Challengers Bangalore, scoring 92* and leading RR to a score of 210 odd runs.
Samson will get a chance to represent India in near future and with the World Cup 2019 just over a year away; he will be on the radar of selectors for the tournament.

Juventus reasserted Buy Fifa 15 Coins their
Juventus reasserted Fut Coins their absolute authority in Italy's Serie A by humiliating Parma 7-0 in Turin on Sunday. The league leaders could not have sent a clearer message to title rivals Roma as braces from Fernando Llorente, Carlos Tevez and Alvaro Morata, and a fine strike from Stephan Lichtsteiner, reminded the capital club exactly what kind of machine they are daring to challenge.
Relegation-threatened Parma were brought down to earth with an almighty bump - suffering their worst ever Serie A defeat - following last weekend's inspiring victory over Inter Milan and the Gialloblu meekly returned to last place having reached 30 goals conceded from only 11 games played in an utterly dismal campaign.
Roma responded to Juventus' hammering with a convincing 3-0 home victory over Torino but the Giallorossi remain three points behind their title rivals. Francesco Totti pulled the strings for both Vasilis Torosidis' opener and a sumptuous second-half strike from Adem Ljajic while Seydou Keita opened his account for Roma in between times.

Tips For Dog Owners Buying A New Home
Buying and moving into a new home is both exciting and stressful. No one likes to move, but you feel confident that the new place will make it all worth it.
However, your dog doesn't get that. All they will know is their home suddenly goes away. Because you don't want your new home to be bad for your dog, there are a few things you need
to do before and after moving. To start, you need to make sure your new place is dog-friendly.
Finding The Right Home
As you search for a home to move into, you need to make sure your dog will work there. Otherwise, it will be bad for both of you.
Coldwell Banker recommends taking a good look at the yard and fence. Both are needed to help your dog stay happy, so make sure the yard is big and safe. Then check that the fence is intact and your dog cannot escape through a gap.
If you are using a real estate agent, talk to them about your dog. Explain what your dog needs, and the agent should be able to steer you towards pet-friendly homes. For example, older dogs often have trouble getting up stairs. After explaining that to the agent, they can ignore multi-level homes and focus on ones without stairs.
Lastly, make sure there are no limits placed by the city, condo board, or homeowner's association on what types of dogs are permitted. Pit bulls, for example, are often banned.
You Have To Sell Your Place, Too
Now that you found the perfect home for you and your dog, you need to sell your old one. That can be harder when you own a dog because, to be honest, dogs can make a mess. Between
barking, chewing, and shedding in the space you're hoping to sell.
That's where home staging becomes important. As Closetbox explains, staging your home will help increase the bids and their value.
Here are a few staging tips:
● Keep your dog and their belongings (toys, bowls, etc.) in one room.
● Make sure any dark spaces are well lit. Besides lamps, you can use mirrors and reflective surfaces.
● De-personalize the home by removing any photos or personal decor. You want prospective buyers to think this is their home, not yours.
● Clean the space thoroughly, including getting rid of dog hair or smells.
Helping Your Dog Acclimate
You sold your old place, and you've bought and moved into a new one. Congratulations! But what about your dog? They don't understand this is their new home, so it will take some work to help your dog acclimate and feel relaxed there. The first thing you should do is introduce your dog to the new home slowly. Dogs can get anxious over new surroundings, so keep them on a leash and slowly walk them into each room (or at least the ones your dog can enter). To help reduce how overwhelming it can be, stick with old toys instead of any new ones.
You'll also need to be more patient with your dog. There's a bigger chance they will have an accident, chew up something, and more. Instead of getting angry, here are a few temporary
changes you can make:
● Take them on more walks, and let them use the backyard more often.
● Visit a local vet as soon as you can. Not only do you need a vet in your new hometown, there may be medical solutions to your dog's anxiety.
Enjoy Your New Home
You can help make sure your new home works for everyone by picking out a dog-friendly house. Once you've staged and sold your old place, you can help your dog get used to their new home. Remember to be patient with your dog so everyone has time to adjust and enjoy your new home.

By El Chupacabra
Here's the thing. Far be it for El Chupa to take the side of the Man, but the current strife surrounding our beloved Nordecke has less to do with Mark McCullers and Crew management than it does with C-Bus itself. Columbus is the problem, people. What we have here is not a failure to communicate, so much as an ongoing battle between provincial, middlebrow, middle class, white-bread Columbus on the one hand, and the Doo-Dah, Gay Pride, Comm Fest, urban hipster Columbus on the other. The problem, however, is that when you cast pearls before swine, no amount of convincing will turn the swine from their usual slop to the genuine pearls you offer them. The key is some sort of accommodation, and McCullers is faced with marketing a product to two demographics who basically have contempt for each other. Good luck, Mark, you'll need it.
Remember Ameriflora? No? Then you're too young. But El Chupa does. Since the 1980s if not earlier, there has been a tension in Columbus. On the one side is the dominant culture represented best by the Dispatch editorial and sports pages (Ray Stein has contempt for soccer), 610 WTVN (Air Watch Traffic on the Tens, Bob Conners), the old Jai Lai, the corporatized nightmare that is the City of Dublin, the Memorial Golf Tournament, Scioto Country Club, Wendy's, the Cheff-O-Nette, and virtually every local news outfit other than the alternative papers. On the other side of Columbus are the denizens of Olde Town East, Victorian Village, German village, the Short North and Clintonville. They have the Gallery Hop, the Surly Girl, the Clintonville Farmer's Market, Calumet Market, and the Crew.
These two groups not only do not live near each other, they live in two entirely different intellectual spaces as well. Oh, they don't LIKE each other very much either.
El Chupa's late father was stationed in Cincinnati in the late 1960s (Why Cincy? I have no idea, I was only two at the time). He dreaded coming to Columbus on assignment because it was, in his words "A Freaking Cow Town." Remember there was no Gay Pride, no Comm Fest, no Doo Dah Parade, no Short North -- in short, none of the things that today serve so many of our brothers and sisters so well that we don't feel compelled to march downtown and just start fucking shit up because we're so bored. There are things in Columbus that actual thinking men and women can do to keep us from realizing just how land-locked and isolated we are from the other major centers of the civilized world. Woe to the hipster in Dayton -- he/she is screwed.
The best example of Columbus' provincial, midwestern, middle brow soul at Crew Stadium is, without a doubt, the Crewzers. High School and 6 years of grad school in Columbus taught El Chupa that whenever Columbus gets something even remotely cool, the local dominant culture will try to fuck it up by marketing it to the least common denominator: Joe and Jane Buckeye. Thus the Crew allow strippers to perform at an event where such cheese-dick, American-style-capitalism marketing schemes have absolutely no place. And don't think we don't know that Europe is slowly succumbing to such artifices. We know better. But at least in European stadiums they have 100+ years of real football culture to offset the marketing ploys of the dicks in suits upstairs. We ain't got that.
And let's be clear, there is some really cool shit in C-Bus. I know that the local hipsters get a bit jaded, but Columbus does offer a quality of life that rivals cities that have a hipper reputation, such as Portland and Seattle. The problem is that the local big money always, always, always, ALWAYS suffers from the same freaking idiocy and provincialism of the white bread hordes in the burbs who screw up virtually everything from Holloween (I know, let's be sure NOT to trick or treat on the actual day the rest of the country does! We have to protect the children!) to the Columbus Convention Center (hideously ugly does not make something architecturally avant garde) to our beloved Crew.
McCullers isn't the issue, per se. He has no choice but to kow tow to the big money. We get that. The issue is C-Bus itself. My advice to the soccer mom's? This is our house, GTFO.

Discussion Board for collaboration on QlikView Layout & Visualizations.
Hi all,
I derived a new column using if statement as per requirement named "OPS REGION".Now i wanted to make some changes in that column using purge char function but when ever i am loading the script after using this purgechar it giving error that "OPS REGION"
not found.
Can any one help?
Hi Adarsh,
Possible to copy paste the script here to look where exactly the issue?
Or you can make sure you are loading the name of the field properly, as fields are case sensitive . If the field has the underscore, make sure also that it doesn't have to be enclosed in some way.
Make sure you placed a comma next to the field unless it is not a last field in the table.

Improvement #1: The blinds
This improvement was not just about making the room ours, but this one definitely fell into the desperately needed category. How desperately needed? Let's put it this way, with the blinds that were on the windows, at night you could see right into the room. This was a privacy issue. And yes, we tested this and this wasn't just me deciding that I hated the bamboo blinds and wanted new ones. Rob went outside after dark and I danced around the room like an idiot. If there's any room you want privacy, it's definitely the bedroom. There's nothing worse than the whole neighborhood seeing you dancing around the room like an idiot!
Then we were off to give us ourselves the much-needed privacy. But of course we didn't get started on the project until late and decided that it would be much better if we did this project on a weekend because it was definitely going to take more time than we thought. So the blinds were set aside for another day.
But finally the weekend was upon us and we were off and rolling again.
I should probably clarify something. When I say we, I don't exactly mean we in the exact meaning of the word. I might actually just mean the hubs. But who can resist a guy with a drill? While he conquered the blinds that boring Friday evening, I was a little less productive...
Don't judge me. I was the photographer...and because that still seems like a lazy job, I should mention that I got up when I was needed to hold something. I'm quite good at holding things.
Rob quickly learned that taking the blinds down was the easy part. There wasn't much to it, but putting up the new blinds was a whole new ball of wax.
One window down - two to go!
I can't exactly be sure of the time he finished because I seem to have fallen asleep in a very non-attractive sort of way. And since I was very unhelpful through this entire process, I only deserved to have this picture taken of me.
He finished closer to the midnight hour than not. And I was not overly useful. But the blinds look amazing. Just having the white instead of the bamboo, lightened up the room considerably. Plus, we could now close the blinds all the way and have that dancing-around-the-room privacy that we so desired.
And the real pride of these blinds? This was our first real project in our new house (changing the toilet seats don't really count). It was nice to put our own touch on the house and make it a little more ours. It was fun to make a decision to change something and actually be able to change something. It was definitely worth the price to get the blinds and the time spent - although we all know it wasn't really my time spent, but in all fairness my helping might have slowed down the project and we might still be hanging blinds even two months later....

A "mulligan" is a second chance to enter your daily score if you missed your chance to enter the first time around. You may choose to use one of your mulligans for a second chance to enter that score. A mulligan is not an opportunity to go back and give yourself a perfect score, it's just an opportunity to log a score for a day that has passed.
Click on the number next to the word "mulligan" just above your rainbow chart, or check your notifications and accept the offer to use a mulligan for a missed day.
Once you run out of mulligans you will no longer see any missed days since you will no longer be able to access them for scoring.
There are no penalties for using a mulligan. All players begin the game with 3 mulligans.

On dialogue and failure to communicate
"It can be tempting when writing realist dialogue to carry out the assumption that when two people are speaking, they are speaking to each other. Like checkered tiles in a kitchen, this kind of dialogue is a pattern that the reader has seen before, many times: a pattern they can recognize without looking closely, and so barely see. […]
"But in reality, nobody ever talks to anyone else. What speech actually achieves is a communication between one person and that person's idea of the other. Most of the time there is no difference, no discernible difference, between such verisimilitude and the truth. But the best dialogue will manifest this disparity in subtle, slender ways. It will show how, in speaking, we fail to speak."

Lazy Oaks Farm
Lazy Oaks Farm was the first website I created professionally. The Hayden's approached me in good faith looking for someone to create them a professional looking website without the hefty price of an experienced web developer. I was able to provide the Hayden's with one on one time that most likely would not have been provided by a professional firm.
Lazy Oaks Farm provides an ajax interface for the user. This means the user will not have to reload the whole page each time they click on a link, providing for a smoother transition between each page.
There is a great deal of content provided on Lazy Oaks Farm; however, not enough to justify sub categorizing some links. The dual line navigation has never set well with me before in the past, but I think it works very well in this situation.

StarTrek4u was the first website that I created. This was how I first started learning web design and development. There have been over 7 different redesigns on this website each of which has been dramatically improved over the one before it. One a few instances I have just started the site over completely.
This website features some of the latest "web 2.0" technologies. The site was built off of a content management system which I coded myself. Javascript animations allow for a flashy user interface yet still accessible to those with special needs. A major focus put on multimedia is at the core.
When creating a large website the key is easy navigation. StarTrek4u covers a vast variety of content, including information which is categorized, then subcategorized, along with multimedia with the same categorization. This creates a great deal of complexities. I believe I have solved the problem of difficult navigation my making the website accessible and providing several different means of navigation.
