At the inspection and inauguration of Jalsa Salana on Sunday, after Sadr Lajna UK had earlier requested advice from Hadhoor regarding Jalsa work, Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih gave Lajna Jalsa duty workers the advice that they should engage in prayer and that they should smile and keep smiling all three days of Jalsa. This brought to mind some memories from past Jalsa days.
It was the Thursday before Jalsa in 2014 and I was working in accommodation on the Hadeeqatul Mahdi site. Our job was to register guests, see if they needed any bedding and settle them with mattresses in the marquees. Guests had been arriving all morning and the marquees were filling up fast when in the late morning the fire drill inspection team arrived and we had to do a fire drill. Our team sprang into action, one took over the fire bell to alert the guests, several swept through the marquees making sure no one was left behind and within five minutes everyone, even the disabled elderly, had assembled outside the accommodation area. The inspection team were happy and we helped the guests go back to their marquees and continued working.
Afterwards it got me thinking about all the various work I had done at Jalsas down the years and that other volunteers did, both male and female, adults and children. For this Jalsa I had attended a fire safety course along with female volunteers from other departments, learning about fire hazards, how to deal with fires and keeping people safe. It meant that at Jalsa each area had a fire safety team who could swing into action and evacuate the whole site if necessary. My accommodation team work gave me skills in dealing with people in sometimes difficult circumstances, such as tiredness, bad weather, etc. Last year at the end of Jalsa, I visited my daughters who were still working in accommodation and found them and their team in rain capes helping guests and their children and baggage onto golf buggies to leave the site; this was after they had settled their department’s finances and helped stack returned mattresses And all of this with smiles on their faces.
Around the jalsa site there had been hundreds of women working throughout the weekend, keeping the site clean, distributing food and water, running various stalls, managing respite and crèche areas, inspecting for hygiene and safety, driving guests around, administering first aid and many, many more jobs. And whenever they saw someone they knew or just made eye contact with, they would pause, often only briefly, to smile, offer greetings and ask “how are you?” before continuing with their work.
Down the years, I’ve seen and experienced working at different jobs in extremely hot, sunny conditions as well as wearing wellies in the rain and mud. And down the years I’ve been astounded at the passion and skill displayed by these ordinary women volunteers. I’ve worked with teachers, doctors, mothers, students, scientists and more, each volunteer unafraid to get her hands dirty and each working her hardest to get the job done, just to make the Jalsa run smoothly and to please God.
What an example these cheerful women are for the younger generation and as has happened through the years, that younger generation will undoubtedly follow in their footsteps and become similar inspirational, smiling women.

Slayer was formed in 1981, by Los Angeles schoolmates and guitarists Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King. Tom Araya soon joined on bass and vocals, and drummer Dave Lombardo joined last in 1982. They played in a style reminiscent of early Exodus, influenced heavily by Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, before their attendance at a mid-1982 Metallica concert convinced them to play faster and heavier.
"Black Magic" was written in February 1983 and marked Slayer's definite venture into thrash metal. They secured a spot on the compilation appeareance "Metal Massacre III" in 1983, contributing the speed metal song "Aggressive Perfector". They also recorded two demos in 1983, and became a popular live act in the Los Angeles area. (In 1983, Bob Gourley filled in for Dave for one gig. He later appeared in Dark Angel.) Their debut LP, Show no Mercy, was recorded in November, 1983.
"Show No Mercy" was released after Slayer appeared on Brian Slagel's "Metal Massacre III" compilation. Then came two EPs: "Haunting the Chapel" and "Live Undead" which was actually recorded in the studio in front of 50 of their closest friends.
Dave Lombardo left the band in 1987 for several weeks, and was replaced for a few live gigs by Tony Scaglione (Whiplash), and then again left in 1992. The band disappeared for a while, and was presumed killed in a bizarre gardening accident. Finally, in 1994, Paul Bostaph from Forbidden was brought in, and three more albums were recorded. Drummer Jon Dette was an official member of Slayer briefly in 1996.
Then, in 2001, Bostaph left to join Systematic, and Lombardo, who had been in Grip Inc. and Fantômas rejoined the band.
It's official that Slayer is the most covered metal band in the world aside from Metallica.
Kerry King played lead guitar on the Beastie Boys songs "Fight For Your Right" and "No Sleep Till Brooklyn", and appeared in the music video for the latter.
Tom Araya's brother John (Bloodcum) worked as an sound engineer for Slayer in their early days.
Gene Hoglan, the legendary drummer who has played in bands such as Dark Angel, Strapping Young Lad, and Death, used to be a Slayer lights man and roadie on the Show No Mercy tour, and was asked to be Dave Lombardo's drum tech on the Haunting North America tour ('84), but knocked it back to pursue his own music career. He even did backup vocals on the album Show No Mercy (the song Evil Has No Boundaries).
The band was never known as Dragonslayer. This has been refuted in countless interviews. And Slayer is not an acronym for 'Satan Laughs As You Eternally Rot', even though those words appeared on the first vinyl pressing of "Show No Mercy", between the grooves of the record and the paper label in the middle.
The band covered Steppenwolf's "Born To Be Wild" for the "NASCAR: Crank It Up" compilation in 2002.

Cake and coffee mornings raise vital funds for the Society’s nominated charity, Black Country Women’s Aid.
Building society branches across the region served up tasty treats and donned their finest festive fashions to help raise more than £2,500 for charity.
The West Brom was collecting money for Black Country Women’s Aid, with fundraising events taking place in all 37 of its branch locations. There was also a Christmas jumper day and raffle held at the Society’s head office premises in West Bromwich.
Customers were invited to take a break from the stress of Christmas shopping and relax with a hot drink and a slice of cake in exchange for a donation. While some colleagues used the day to show off their baking skills, others approached local retailers who kindly provided cakes, biscuits and sweets free of charge.
Deborah Slater, Fundraising Officer for Black Country Women’s Aid, said: “The West Brom have been raising money on our behalf throughout the year and the generosity and goodwill from staff and customers alike has been amazing.
“Branch teams really pulled out all the stops for us this Christmas, each putting on their own cake and coffee morning and helping to raise awareness of the vital services Black Country Women’s Aid provides to those in need.
Black Country Women’s Aid is an independent charity which has been supporting victims of abuse and violence for more than 30 years. It helps around 8,000 women, children and men every year to escape from violence, cope with trauma and move on with their lives.

This is interesting! Has music helped you get closer to your kids?
If you’re looking for another reason to blast your favorite tunes, a new study has shown that parents who listen to music with their kids have better relationships with them as they enter young adulthood.
Conducted by researchers at the University of Arizona and published in the Journal of Family Communication, the study distinguishes between two forms of shared musical activity: structured and casual. Structured musical activity included playing instruments together, while casual musical activity included listening to music or going to a concert together.
Both types of interaction were associated with better parent-child relationships when those children reached young adulthood. The effects appeared to be more pronounced when experiences happened during children’s adolescence.
Two factors that appear to make music a bonding force are coordination and empathy. For example, by singing and dancing together, kids and parents learn to synchronize with each other. Parents and kids may have more empathy for each other when they compromise on a radio station during car trips, and a shared experience of emotions expressed in a song can also deepen a parent-child bond.
While this study showed that it’s important to give your teens’ music a try for the sake of getting closer to them, other research has shown that even babies and their parents can benefit from shared musical experiences. A 2014 study showed that babies who were bounced in sync to a musical beat were more likely to cooperate with adults than those who weren’t bounced at all or were bounced out of sync.
As someone who grew up listening to all my parents’ favorite music and now considers my mom and dad my best concert buddies, I can certainly say that music has been a bonding force in my relationship with them.
What do you think? Has music helped you get closer to your kids?

Bernardo will make his comeback from injury in Albion's FA Cup replay at West Brom on Wednesday night.
Manager Chris Hughton has confirmed that Alireza Jahanbakhsh and Dan Burn will also be in the side for the fourth round return clash at the Hawthorns (8.05pm).
Dale Stephens (hip), a late withdrawal from Saturday's draw with Watford, has improved but is unlikely to feature ahead of Burnley's Premier League visit at the weekend.
Brazilian left-back Bernardo has been sidelined since he was injured in the 2-2 draw at West Ham at the turn of the year.
Record signing winger Jahanbakhsh, an unused sub against Watford, has been injured and on Asian Cup duty with Iran.
Central defender Burn impressed in the 0-0 draw with West Brom at the Amex, his first appearance since signing from Wigan in the summer and immediately returning to them to recover from injury and play matches in the Championship.
The winners will be at home to Derby on February 16 (12.30).
The option of a warm-weather break for Hughton's squad is under consideration if they are knocked out by West Brom.
That would leave them without a fixture between Burnley's visit and the trip to Leicester on February 26.
No new date has been arranged yet for the game at Stamford Bridge on February 24, postponed because of Chelsea's involvement in the Carabao Cup final.

Rent a Dumpster in Bluewater Now!
Simply give us a call and we will answer any questions you may have about the Bluewater dumpster rental procedure, allowed materials, size you may need, etc.
Our roll off containers can usually be delivered in Bluewater the day after you place your order. Make sure to call us early to ensure timely delivery.
In case you are seeking to rent a dumpster in Bluewater, one of your primary considerations is going to be price. There are generally two pricing options available when renting a dumpster in Bluewater. Flat rate is pricing dependent on the size of the dumpster, not the quantity of material you put in it. Per ton pricing will bill you based on the weight you need hauled.
One type of pricing structure is not always more expensive than the other. If you know just how much material you have to throw away, you might get a better deal with per short ton pricing. On the other hand, flat rate pricing is able to help you keep a limit on costs when you are coping with unknown weights. Whether you frequently rent dumpsters for work or just require a one-time rental for a job around the home, you need to look around to find the best rental costs based on your own demands.
Nearly all roll of dumpsters have the same width (usually eight feet). This makes it feasible for firms to use the same trucks to transport a wide selection of dumpsters. When you see a dumpster's measurements, therefore, you can assume that they refer to depth and span. You may even see dumpster sizes listed by yards. This really refers to square yards that measure the dumpster's volume.
In case you're coordinating a large commercial job, then you will most likely need a 40-yard dumpster or larger. Substantial home renovations may require a 30-yard dumpster, but most smaller dwelling repairs just need 20-yard or even 10-yard dumpsters. Speak with an expert should you need more advice on picking a dumpster size that matches your endeavor.
The price to rent a dumpster in Bluewater depends on several factors such as the size you need and how long you need to keep it to finish your job. Normally, you can expect to spend more cash for bigger dumpsters. Keeping the dumpster for a longer amount of time will also increase the price.
Getting quotes is one of the very best methods to compare dumpster prices to make sure you get a fair deal. Since some companies may charge additional fees, it is crucial that you be sure the price quote contains all the equipment and services that you need.
Usually, renting a dumpster in Bluewater is an affordable way to remove debris from a building, remodeling, or clean out endeavor. As long as you get price quotes so you can compare your options, you should realize you could get a great deal on a dumpster rental in Bluewater.
Deciding where to put your dumpster can get a large effect regarding how fast you finish endeavors. The most effective alternative is to select a location that is close to the worksite. It is essential, however, to contemplate whether this location is a safe alternative. Make sure that the place is free of obstacles that could trip people while they take heavy debris.
Many people decide to place dumpsters in their drives. It is a handy alternative as it usually means you can avoid requesting the city for a license or permit. In the event you have to place the dumpster on the street, then you definitely need to contact your local government to ask whether you need to get a permit. Although many municipalities will let people keep dumpsters on the road for brief levels of time, others will ask you to complete some paperwork. Following these rules will help you stay away from fines that will make your project more costly.
When you rent a roll off dumpster, you'll be tempted to throw anything and everything inside. Common things which individuals usually dispose of in a dumpster comprise solid waste material and most routine household and building waste, along with tree limbs and landscaping debris. They could be utilized for business and commercial cleanouts, house renovations, getting rid of junk when you are moving to a brand new dwelling, bigger landscaping occupations and much more.
A record of stuff you cannot set in a roll off dumpster includes paints and solvents, automotive fluids, pesticides, chemicals, electronics and batteries. If you try and contain these things, you'll probably get an additional fee. Other things which will certainly incur an additional fee include tires, mattresses and appliances. Extra heavy substances are also not allowed; things which are too hefty may surpass government transfer regulations and be dangerous to haul.
As with any service, it is almost always a good strategy to allow your dumpster as far ahead as you possibly can in order to make sure that the dumpster will be available when you require it. If you wait until the final minute, there's no guarantee that the business will likely have the capacity to fill your order.
Two or three days notice is usually sufficient to ensure your dumpster delivery in time. Remember that the busiest days are usually on Mondays and Fridays (surrounding the weekend), so when you can plan your job for the midst of the week, you have a increased chance of getting the dumpster you will need.
Most dumpster rental companies in Bluewater typically rent containers for a regular speed for 7 days, although most one-time customers end up keeping their container an average of three and a half days. When you phone to reserve the container, talk with the customer support representative about the length of time you believe you'll need.
In case it turns out that your job takes longer than you expected, merely phone the dumpster company to explain. Most companies will charge you on a per-day basis after your initial 7 days. It's very important to convey this added demand when you know you have it since most dumpster businesses have a small variety of bins that will already be allowed. Most companies will work together with you to adapt your additional rental time. Should you believe you will need the dumpster for an additional week or more, be sure to mention that; rates may change based on a longer time frame.
Choosing a dumpster size demands some educated guesswork. It is often problematic for individuals to estimate the sizes that they need for roofing jobs because, realistically, they don't know how much stuff their roofs feature.
There are, nevertheless, some basic guidelines you'll be able to follow to make a good choice. In case you are removing a commercial roof, then you'll likely need a dumpster that provides you at least 40 square yards.
Many folks order one size bigger than they believe their jobs will require since they wish to avoid the extra expense and hassle of replacing complete dumpsters that weren't big enough.
All major credit cards accepted for dumpster rentals in Bluewater.

Graduating Glenbrook Evening High School (GBE) student Madison Christenson was recently presented with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
She and 14 other Chicago-area students were selected to take the stage of the Tony Award-winning musical “Hamilton” on December 13, 2017. They all presented their own original works such as poems, raps and monologues.
Last year, GBE applied to the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History to obtain discounted tickets for all GBE students to attend a performance. Qualifying schools were selected to attend a performance once all application guidelines and criteria were met.
GBE was recognized as a Gilder Lehrman Affiliate School in November 2016, and students began the process of completing the academic requirements in September 2017. All students were required to complete a five-hour classroom curriculum and submit questions for the “Hamilton” cast, in addition to submitting their own projects in the form of a poem, rap or monologue.
GBE teachers co-taught the “Hamilton” curriculum and assisted students with their projects prior to submitting them to the program. When asked to designate a top submission from the students, GBE teachers chose the one who they felt captured the best work of all students – which was Christenson’s. In total, 18 GBE students were able to attend the special show presented for high school students, as well as attend a private Q&A with cast members.
Christenson wrote a poem told from the perspective of Alexander Hamilton himself. In order to overcome her stage fright, she practiced both at home and at school with her English teacher, Lauren Berk, and GBE principal, Dr. Jim Shellard, in the weeks leading up to the show.
“My arms and legs were shaking… there was so much talent on that stage,” she said.
Christenson said she really became interested in poetry last spring and listened to the musical “like 40 times” to prepare her piece.
Berk said that she thinks Alexander Hamilton and Christenson have a lot in common.
Now that Christenson has captivated the student audience of a best-selling show, she says the experience has only grown her love of theatre. She enjoys reading and writing, and would like to get on stage more often.

Parents and teachers have been upset with the crazy federal Common Core standards. In 2011 the legislature authorized the State Board of Education to impose these standards on your schools.
Why were Common Core standards imposed? It was matter of trying to get more federal money.
So many people complained to candidates in 2014 that many candidates campaigned against Common Core in 2014 and perhaps in 2016. But in 2015 and in the first six weeks of the 2017 legislative session there has been NO LEGISLATION FILED TO REPEAL IT.
Common Core was such a hot topic going into the 2015 legislative session that Governor Asa Hutchinson punted the ball down the road two years by forming a task force to study the issue.
Has everyone grown comfortable with Common Core or did Governor Hutchinson’s delay tactic work.
Repeal of Common Core has always been a long shot at best. Why? Because politicians aren’t going to want to give up the federal money the state gets for imposing Common Core standards.
Both Common Core and Obamacare Medicaid Expansion were passed to get federal money.


text: Bose-Einstein correlations between identified charged pions are measured for p+Pb collisions at √sNN =5.02 TeV using data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 28 nb−1. Pions are identified using ionization energy loss measured in the pixel detector. Two-particle correlation functions and the extracted source radii are presented as a function of collision centrality as well as the average transverse momentum (kT) and rapidity (y*ππ) of the pair. Pairs are selected with a rapidity −2 < y* ππ < 1 and with an average transverse momentum 0.1 < kT < 0.8 GeV. The effect of jet fragmentation on the two-particle correlation function is studied, and a method using opposite-charge pair data to constrain its contributions to the measured correlations is described. The measured source sizes are substantially larger in more central collisions and are observed to decrease with increasing pair kT. A correlation of the radii with the local charged-particle density is demonstrated. The scaling of the extracted radii with the mean number of participating nucleons is also used to compare a selection of initial-geometry models. The cross term Rol is measured as a function of rapidity, and a nonzero value is observed with 5.1σ combined significance for −1 < y*ππ < 1 in the most central events.

Former state workers can claim unemployment benefits in Georgia when they lose their jobs and meet all the requirements of the Unemployment Insurance (UI) program. The federal unemployment benefits program is implemented within the state by the GA Department of Labor (GDOL), which handles all unemployment benefits claims in Georgia.
Dismissed employees who are wondering how to claim unemployment benefits in GA may simply fill out an online UI claim or submit a paper application through the GDOL Career Centers. Note that, however, claiming benefits for unemployment on a regular basis is only possible for UI applicants who meet additional eligibility criteria during a weekly recertification procedure.
Depending on the UI petitioner’s average wages, the weekly amount of federal unemployment benefits in GA varies anywhere between $44 and $330. The maximum number of UI weekly payments, on the other hand, is determined by the total unemployment rate (TUR) of the state when you file your UI application.
The GDOL does not follow the standard 26-week benefits period and instead provides benefits for a varying duration between 14 and 20 weeks. The higher the state TUR, the longer your unemployment benefits claim will be valid.
In addition to the standard UI payments, the department also offers unemployment benefits extensions. These UI continuations, however, can only be obtained during times of high unemployment, when the state activates an extended benefits program.
The most convenient method to submit an unemployment benefits claim in Georgia is to use the department’s online Unemployment Insurance Claim Application and provide your information via the internet. According to the UI program’s guidelines, only workers who were not at fault for losing their jobs, and who have earned an adequate amount of wages during a 12-month base period, can claim unemployment benefits in Georgia.
State employees who fulfill the above requirements can finalize the federal unemployment benefits application procedure in several straightforward steps. These include providing their Social Security Number and personal information, entering extensive information about their jobs from the last two years, and obtaining a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN).
After filing the initial Georgia unemployment benefits claim, the GDOL will commence the determination procedure, which is comprised of several stages. First, a GDOL official will inspect the UI claim for completeness.
Then, if no additional items are required, the UI application will be examined according to the work and wage eligibility criteria. Finally, the department will mail out the Claims Examiner’s Determination, informing the employee of whether or not he or she can start claiming benefits for unemployment in GA.
Note: The GDOL also offers partial unemployment benefits to state workers who are working less than full time.
As the purpose of federal unemployment benefits in Georgia is to provide financial stability to unemployed job seekers, UI beneficiaries will have to undergo a regular certification process to prove that they belong in this category. To claim unemployment benefits payments on a weekly basis, state employees can use the GDOL Certification Access service available via the department’s website.
Were you actively seeking employment?
Were you physically and mentally able to work?
Were you available for a job that suits your abilities?
Were you offered such employment and did you refuse it?
Did you have any earnings, and if so, how much did you earn?
Petitioners whose weekly unemployment benefits claim was accepted will receive their standard UI paycheck within two to three days.
Note: Unemployment claimants can also complete the weekly UI recertification procedure by phone.
Federal unemployment benefits are taxable, and state workers who are claiming benefits for unemployment must report them on both their state and federal income tax returns. The state Department of Labor offers UI beneficiaries the option to have one or both types of taxes deducted from their weekly benefits.
While state taxes are withdrawn at the rate of six percent, federal taxes are collected at the rate of 10 percent. UI recipients can choose the tax deduction option when they claim unemployment benefits in GA for the first time.
However, you will have one opportunity during your benefit year to change the tax-withholding preference. At the end of the year, the GDOL will send the IRS 1099-G form to UI beneficiaries to inform them of the amount of benefits they have received. If you chose to have your taxes deducted from your weekly UI paychecks, this information will be displayed in the form.

Primate Babatunde Elijah Ayodele of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church.
Primate Babatunde Elijah Ayodele of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Oke Afa, Lagos is renowned for most of his accurate predictions on national and international events. In this encounter with Daily Champion, Ayodele reveals what the citizens should expect as the year 2019 unfolds.
What is the Lord saying concerning the New Year?
Let us pray for this country. The economy will remain unstable; the naira won’t be stable as well. The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)’s Governor is already tired, Buhari is weak, and he does not deserve second term in office. Saraki would have made the difference if he were the country’s leader; he would have made the economy better.
I have not seen anything serious about the president administration’s ability to address the problems of the nation. Nigeria is sitting on time bomb and there are harder days ahead for Nigerians. There will be austerity, this country needs divine intervention. There will be more killings this year than in 2018. The country is not safe; all the Service Chiefs are serving nothing because there will be increase in kidnapping, arm robbery, politically motivated killings and high-profile assassinations across the nation.
There will be gas line and pipeline explosions; there will be unexpected deaths of politicians, journalists, actors, pastors and entertainers this year.
I don’t want to rate anybody but I have said it before and I want to say it again and will keep on saying it, Buhari cannot fight corruption instead corruption will fight Buhari, whether he jails anybody or not, corruption is coming back to fight him, that is if he retains that presidential seat. The common man has to place his hope in God and draw close to Him for their individual survival. The government has nothing for the common man in Nigeria that is what I am seeing.
What do you see about the next general elections which are around the corner?
I am still saying it that if Atiku Abubakar wins, there is still going to be problems, if Buhari wins, there is still going to be more problems that is what am seeing.The answer to our problems is not APC or PDP or any political association for that matter, at the moment, Nigerians are in dilemma; there is confusion among the citizens on what to do. So after Buhari’s period what will follow is serious agitations of breakage because many zones will be jostling to produce the country’s president. The world is aware of the threat that is surrounding Nigeria’s unity. The unity of Nigeria is under serious threat.
On the outcome of the coming election, in Ogun State, the presidential election will go to the APC. If APC does the right thing, it can win the governorship poll but there is no way for the PDP in the state’s governorship contest. In Lagos State, Mr. Jide Sanwo-Olu will not do two terms as there will problems between the APC candidate and his deputy, Mr. Hamzat. The crisis will escalate during the election, so the party must be watchful on that. Although there are still lots of issues in Lagos, it will be difficult for any other party to take over Lagos State now. It may be possible in 2023.APC may win Anambra State in the presidential election. Ebonyi and Cross River states may also go to the APC. If the People Democratic Party (PDP) is not careful and if it fails to do what it is supposed to do, it may not make the desired impact in the forthcoming general elections.
In 2015, I said that Dr Goodluck Jonathan may be the last president on the PDP platform and I still stand on that. Jonathan may be the last president of PDP except the party take a quick step and the quick step is that its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and Dr Bukola Saraki can do the right thing and that is the only way that PDP can win the presidential election. Any prophet can say anything but let’s leave the judgment till after February. It is not too late to do the right thing.
The Igbo Presidency is not certain in 2023, the Igbo should forget such quest in 2023 but Yoruba Presidency is feasible in 2023. Likewise, Biafra cannot be actualized now; the agitators should wait and watch until 2023. Nigeria will be at peace in 2023. But Nigeria will eventually break up, Cameroon too will break.A state will break away from the U.S.A in the nearest future. Donald Trump‘s second term is under threat, he will not get a second term in office as the U.S President. Inflation and unemployment will be high in Britain this year and this will bring in a new government.
So what are the right things the PDP should do?
If the leaders of the PDP put the right thing together that is when the party can win but if they don’t put the right thing together, APC will still come back. The PDP will win Kwara but in Kogi, the APC governor will still come back that is why the PDP should take a bold step and run as fast as it can if the party wants to win but I doubt their readiness to win since they are yet to fortify the party. Atiku and Saraki are yet to do what they supposed to do in order to win the presidential poll.
Lots of things are going to happen in the North East of the country. The problematic states during the general elections are Lagos, Ogun, Imo, Rivers, Anambra, Kaduna, Sokoto and Zamfara . But Zamfara will go to PDP. It will be a serious battle in Rivers but Governor Nyesom Wike will come back. Kaduna and Kano will go to the APC, there will be vote buying and rigging in the coming election.
But poverty will increase and the nation’s economy will remain in teeters.
In your earlier prediction, you said that if the PDP wants to win, it should give its ticket to Dr Bukola Saraki but now that Atiku Abubakar has picked the party’s ticket what is the right thing that the party should do to win, hand the ticket over to Saraki?
I am not saying that Atiku should hand down the PDP’s ticket to Saraki but let me put it this way, in 2015, in one of my prophecies published in one of the national newspapers; I said that Buhari could not win with his own glory alone. Similarly, Atiku will not win in his own glory except he leans on Saraki’s glory to win.
That is the only way Atiku can win the election. I repeat, unless the PDP does what is needful between Atiku and Saraki, the party cannot win the Presidential Election. Except in a situation where there will be truly mutual understanding, an understanding similar to that of Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) and Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) prior to the last general elections. Atiku and Saraki should go to that direction; full and total alliance that is when PDP can come back to power, otherwise it is still like child’s play in PDP’s camp. Except Atiku and the PDP do the right thing, they cannot win.
Where do you place the hope of the common man in your predictions?
The common man has to place his hope in God and draw close to Him for their individual survival. The government has nothing for the common man in Nigeria that is what I am seeing.
Beyond prayer what is strategy you think that can sustain the economy?
Why not put the right people to plan the economy ahead and to the level in which the common man can enjoy it. For instance, what the budget says is just the way the high profile people can enjoy themselves. For example, if any state tries to pay the N30 000 wage, its economy will shut down.
The N30 000 minimum wage cannot be paid. No government will pay the N30 000, the highest they can pay is between N22 000 and N25 000, anything more than that is politics, they may promise to pay but they won’t pay. To boost the economy of various states of the federation, oil rigs should be given to individual states to manage instead of individuals. We have the Paris fund, let such fund be given economists to manage, a committee should be set up to manage such fund.Where are the looted funds that were recovered? Where did they keep the fund, let it be used judiciously. It is not enough to say that such money is given to the state governors.

I can't find any docs/posts on this, so I'm presuming it's not possible to do.
I would like to be able to set the 'slidesSpacing' property via CSS (so that I can take advantage of media queries, and keep all layout values within our scss code rather than our js code).
Could you confirm whether this is possible or not?
rsBeforeSizeSet event will fire only when size of slider changed, if you want to trigger it, you need to call updateSliderSize(true);.
What about slidesSpacing in percents not pixels? Is it possible to set?
This option is not implemented via CSS as it requires many calculations. You can set this options only in pixels, but you can change it dynamically via CSS.
Could you say more about your last comment on this thread: "you can set this option only in pixels, but you can change it dynamically via CSS"? I'd like to make the space between slides (slidesSpacing) responsive (i.e. increase at certain browser widths and decrease on a mobile device). Thanks for any additional information.
and spacing with equal 2% of slider width.
Thanks so much for your response, Dmitry. Is it possible to use a similar approach to set a greater slider.width for larger screens, and smaller for small screens, instead of one constant ratio of slider.width to slidesSpacing? Sorry if this is a naive question; I'm new to JS.
You may use properties like window.innerWidth to retrieve the current width of window.
@tasti.l, calculate the value of slidesSpacing option before slider is intiialized it and set it during the initialization.
Hi Dmitry, sorry to be a pain, but I can't figure this out. Could you give an example of how to "calculate the value of slidesSpacing option before slider is intiialized it and set it during the initialization"? Thanks.

I haven't posted here for a long time and this is hardly a cheery way to break that silence. But I just thought I should say that my much loved elder brother, Joel Rosenberg, died last night very suddenly. He popped in here from time to time and I know that some on my f-list were fans of his work. He was the sci-fi/fantasy novelist Joel Rosenberg, not the evangelical Christian novelist Joel C. Rosenberg.
I still can't believe he's really gone. I was thinking this morning "It's so sudden. It's just like when Uncle Bob died when we were in high school - such a shock. I have to call Joel and tell him it's like when Uncle Bob died. He's the only one who will remember that." And then, of course, realized how absurd that was.
I'm off to Minneapolis middle of tonight/early tomorrow morning.
Oh my. I'm so sorry to hear that. May you be comforted with all the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
Thanks. I'm still reeling. And so, so sad. But I'm ready to go tonight. I got plane reservations, did laundry, handed off work and volunteer assignments, made arrangements for a post-shiva memorial thing when I get home, etc. And I called my mother and the estranged siblings to tell them. Not that I expected a response, but I think they should know.
I am very sorry for your loss. Please take care of your own health.
I'll do my best to be safe. Thanks for the hugs.
Thanks, Martin. I'm having a hard time believing it.
I saw the news this morning and thought of you. Please know how sorry I am for your loss.
Honey, I'm so sorry for you loss. You and your family have my deepest sympathies.
Thoughts and prayers for you and yours. So sorry to hear. Travel safe.
Oh no! I'm sorry for your loss, and as a fan of his SF, I'm sorry for the world's loss, too.
Your story about wanting to call Joel and remember your uncle with him made me realize that each loved one's death means we lose a piece of our memory. I wish you and rest of Joel's family peace and strength. May you share memories of Joel at the shiva and thus help each other recover something of the loss you are each experiencing.
Not absurd at all! I wish you could talk about it with him, because I completely understand the impulse. I didn't know your brother or his work, but it sounds like he meant a lot to you. I'm so sorry this has happened.
All my sympathy to you and your family, and to Joel's family.

“Stay where you can see me!” I would yell to the kids as they ran off. Not the other way around, where I can see them.
I figured out very quickly that the kids weren’t thinking, “Hmm–can she see me from over there?” Nope. It was,” Sure she can, I’m fine! OFF I GO!” As they played further and further away.
And I realized with this verse, it is the same with faith. I should be able to see God. We can trust that He is there. Go about our business and leave it all to Him. We know He loves us. But if we don’t keep our thoughts on Him, we can end up in the hot seat of temptation. And that is so very easy to do, just wander a little to the left or the right, thinking this will be fine–He can still see me. This won’t be so bad. This won’t hurt me. Just like little kids wandering away at the park.
But what happens when we make sure that we can see the Goodness of the Lord at all times? When we read the Bible, fill our ears with more Christian music than secular, keep talismens around that remind us of our faith, pray, meet with other Christians–it makes a difference. Our minds stay on what keeps us strong. We remember the goodness and love of faith and we remember to share it with those around us.
Stay where you can see God. Yes. That is what I will do.
PS…if you want even more, Lesson #2 of the online Bible study of Exodus posts today over at www.biblestoriesfromtheheart.com . We had a wonderful response from the community over there–over a thousand people checked it out! Many did the artwork with me and shared it on Facebook. It is becoming a great community to get closer to God. We would love to have you join us!

If you have no other codes then it may be the ECU grounds for the CAN BUS controller.
Take the battery out and locate the ECU. Carefully unplug it (I broke mine) and check the condition of the contacts and wire harness. Repair harness damage depending on damage. Clean connector with contact cleaner apply dielectric grease and reinstall. Check ground point for ECU. Put it all back together and reset the codes if you can or drive for a while and see if the communication is fixed.

For starters, God bless the great states of South Carolina, West Virginia and Wisconsin, where freedom reigns and government will not infringe on your inalienable right to own a bouncing marsupial. Not that I have exactly turned my attention to this issue before, but I had no idea that anyone would actually want to own a kangaroo, which is a wild animal, as a pet in the first place, and in the United States, where clearly they are not native – and that the issue is so burning that every state in the Union has made a legal determination on this topic.
The situation in the actual home of kangaroos is quite complicated. As a general principle, keeping wild native fauna as pets is frowned upon, legally and/or practically, though I note that last year a government official has suggested it would be a patriotic way to preserve endangered species rather than splurging on more cats and dogs. Only a couple of jurisdictions (including Victoria) allow for kangaroo pets, but only subject to obtaining a licence and satisfying various conditions, such as appropriate fencing – kangaroos, after all, love to roam free through the countryside – and obtaining the animals from an accredited source (i.e. not capturing one yourself in the wild). In the rest of Australia, including my state of Queensland, forget it. Animal rights groups are largely against what they see as imprisoning wild animals, and there is a good argument in that; kangaroos in addition to their love of open spaces can be quite destructive and violent (kind of like other Australians in the popular international imagination).? I’m told that even in the more liberal Victoria, individuals rarely receive permits, which are largely restricted to zoos and animal sanctuaries.
If you visit Brisbane, I’ll take you to one of the local animal parks where you can actually feed and if you’re lucky pet kangaroos and wallabies. But if you still want to own one after that, well, there’s always South Carolina.
