I would choose Nora Ephron to write my biography. I've said it before on this blog, but when she weaved recipes into Heartburn it gave me a literary thrill.
I made a killer chili when I was a kid. So if Nora were to tell you about the year my parents divorced and how I used to run home after school, make dinner for my younger sisters, and then run back to school in time for track practice, I am positive she would include my chili recipe.
And because it was such a big, special event, I am sure she would tell you about the retreat I planned for a group of college kids. I wore a lot of hats at that retreat: planner, organizer, speaker, and head chef. For Saturday's lunch I served my version of a fatoush. As we ate one of my guests – a young woman from Tennessee – excitedly exclaimed, "I have never had food like this before!" She grew up on biscuits and gravy and other Southern specialties. After she returned home she e-mailed me for the recipe.
I'm thinking Nora would include that one, too.
And so will I:
Grilled Chicken Fatoush
⅓ cup olive oil
3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 tsp. dried greek oregano (or 2 Tbsp. minced fresh)
salt and pepper to taste
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I buy cutlets because they grill faster).
English cucumber, sliced into thin half moons
Campari tomatoes – cut however you like them
big bunch of fresh parsley, rough chopped
pitted kalamata olives, quartered lengthwise
red onion sliced super thin
romaine lettuce, chopped
fresh dill, chopped (optional – if it's summer and your garden is producing)
fresh mint, chopped (optional – if it's summer and your garden is producing)
LOTS of feta cheese, crumbled
a pinch of ground sumac berries (optional – the kind you buy at the spice store, not the poisonous sumac berries that grow in your yard)
pita chips (recipe follows)
Whisk together the dressing ingredients until they are emulsified. It should make about ⅔ cup. Reserve ⅓ cup of it to dress the salad, and pour the rest into a ziplock bag with the chicken. Put the chicken in the fridge and let it marinate for 30 minutes (longer is better but not too long or the texture of the chicken will get a bit mealy).
Combine the salad ingredients – use whatever quantities you like.
Preheat your grill to high. Grill the chicken until thoroughly cooked – about 3-4 minutes per side if you use cutlets. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
To serve:
Toss the salad with the dressing. Toss in the pita chips (right before serving so they don't get soggy.) Pile salad on each plate, lay slices of grilled chicken on top.
pita chips:
2 or 3 of the large, thin pitas
olive oil
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 400.
Cut or tear the pita bread into small pieces.
Throw it in a large salad bowl. Toss in the minced garlic. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss thoroughly with clean hands.
Spread in single layer on a large cookie sheet.
Bake on second rung of oven until toasted, 7 -10 minutes in my oven.
Use the same large bowl to make the salad so the little bits of garlic that cling to the bowl don't go to waste.
Note: If it's too stinkin' cold to grill, sear the chicken on the stove in a cast iron pan (grill pan if possible) and then finish it in the oven as soon as you pull the pita chips out.
Bon Apetit!

Mario Lucia started listening for his name Saturday as soon as a Wild trade was announced.
Lucia never heard his name on the P.A. system -- just the words "from Wayzata High School." Loud cheers at Xcel Energy Center drowned out everything else on the second day of the NHL draft.
The Wild took Lucia, the son of Gophers men's hockey coach Don Lucia, with the second-to-last pick of the second round, No. 60 overall.
"You could not have written a better story than this: Growing up in Minnesota, being drafted by the hometown team," Mario Lucia said, "and then finally having the draft here."
The Wild, without a second-round pick, traded their third- and fourth-round picks, Nos. 71 and 101, to Vancouver to draft Lucia.
As the crowd applauded -- Mario was the first Minnesotan taken -- Don Lucia turned to his son in their row of seats. "He said, 'Congrats,' and he had tears in his eyes," Mario said. "It was a good moment for me and my family."
Lucia, a 6-2, 187-pound left winger, averaged two points per game as a junior last season. He scored 30 goals and had 24 assists for 54 points for the Trojans.
"It was a lot more stressful than the first round," Lucia said of Saturday morning's wait.
Lucia was hoping to be taken in the first round on Friday, expecting to go early in the second round. He was rated No. 34 among North American skaters by the NHL's Central Scouting.
"I just wanted it to be over with," Lucia said. "It has been a long, stressful process. I am just happy to have it be done."
He was interviewed by 21 teams at the NHL combine in Toronto last month. More meetings with teams followed, including one in mid-June with the Wild.
"They said they were going to try to get me," Lucia said. "Once that deal [with Vancouver] went down, I had high hopes and they met them."
The Wild is intrigued by Lucia's potential.
"Physically, [Lucia] has a ways to go, but he is a big kid and he has skill," said Brent Flahr, the Wild's assistant general manager. "He was the top kid from Minnesota on our list, and he fell far enough down and we were able to move up."
With persistent effort. Several earlier trade attempts by the Wild were fruitless.
"He could not have gone to a better place," Don Lucia said. "It's a class organization. I know at times the Wild have been unfairly criticized for what they do with Minnesotans.'' In its 11 drafts before this year, the Wild had selected a total of six Minnesotans.
"But this was a good fit with a Minnesota kid in that spot -- fortunately for us,'' Don Lucia continued. "It was exciting for me, and Mario was beaming when it happened."
Mario Lucia, who turns 18 in August, is undecided on a team next season and a college. But he is certain the right NHL team drafted him.
"The [Wild's] fans will be behind your back, especially being a hometown guy," Lucia said. "I have a lot of work to do before I get to the NHL, but I hope someday I will get there."
This coming season, Lucia will play for either the Penticton Vees of the British Columbia Hockey League or the Des Moines Buccaneers of the United States Hockey League. He visited Penticton after his school year ended -- he loved the facilities and scenery -- and participated in the Buccaneers' training camp last weekend.
His college list is down to the Gophers, where his older brother Tony played; Notre Dame, his father's alma mater; and Colorado College, where he lived as a youngster when Don coached the Tigers.
"I will play four years of college if I have to," Lucia said.
The Wild will wait for him to develop wherever he goes.
"We don't draft kids because they are from Minnesota," Flahr said. "We draft them because they are good players."

Postmedia's CFO stepping down next month
Doug Lamb has been with Postmedia since its inception in 2010.
Postmedia's CFO Doug Lamb is set to leave the company at the end of February.
Lamb has been with Postmedia since its inception in 2010, working at its predecessor Canwest Mediaworks Inc. since 2005. He has also held roles with Metroland (Torstar), Hollinger International and Southam Inc.
A search is currently on to find Lamb's replacement, according to a release from Postmedia. In the interim period, the company's financial operations will be handled by the corporate finance team under the guidance of the Postmedia executive team.
As at most newspapers, revenues have been consistently sliding downward at Postmedia, with the most recent quarter down 14.4%. Postmedia has responded in part by cutting costs, including current goals of reaching a 20% drop in staffing costs. Further layoffs were announced to unions this week, with nine cuts coming to staff at the Montreal Gazette, six at the Ottawa Citizen and another six at the Windsor Star, as confirmed by a Postmedia spokesperson.
Postmedia has also come under fire for continuing to issue large retention bonuses to its top executives in the face of continuing financial turbulence and staff cuts. A total of $2.3 million in bonuses was awarded to executives in late 2016, with Lamb getting a reported $450,000.

November 24, 2017 by Joann Castle
I was never a sports fan, much to my recent husband's dismay. Mike's mother was a devoted fan and I think he expected it of me but I just couldn't connect. When I watched football, I mostly saw male hormones battling it out for dominance over other males. But I understood his passion. Mike had been privileged to be the first black quarterback on his high school football team. He could see the mental game and the strategies of the plays as they unfolded.
That deep devotion to the game was over my head, until Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the national anthem, to protest police brutality explaining: "… this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder." With this, I connected.
Here was my moment that wedded sports to humanity, a moment when sportsmen revealed another side to the players in an action intended to challenge our definition of patriotism. I can't say it better than Stan Van Gundy, coach of the Detroit Pistons, my home town team, in this week's Time Magazine:
What is it that the protesters want?
SVG: "Simply and succinctly: Equality. Equal rights. Equal justice. Equal treatment by police and others in authority. Equal Opportunity. The second sentence of the Declaration of Independence starts with, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal." In over two centuries, from slavery to segregation to lynching and police brutality to the mass incarceration of people of color. We have not even come close to that ideal. It is our systemic racial inequality, not athletes kneeling during the national anthem that dishonors our country.
"If we truly want to honor our country, this must change."
Yes, the time for kneeling is over and everyone needs to stand up and move from talk to action. What can we do? Van Gundy has a very specific list.
- Ameliorating harsh sentencing guidelines and ending mandatory minimum sentences.
- Enacting clean slate laws.
- Eliminating cash bail, holding people presumed to be innocent because they cannot afford to pay their bail.
- Reforming juvenile justice. Black kids are five times more likely to be locked-up than white kids. (2015 statistic)
- End police brutality and racial bias in police departments."
Jeff Seidel, a Free Press reporter put it this way: If we love our democracy, "we need to stand up and do something until our flag wraps around each one of us, the same way."
Stand up and speak for democracy. One of the major avenues we have for advancing Van Gundy's proposed actions is to pay specific attention to down-ballot and judicial candidates. Do the research, discuss with your friends and cohorts, and then vote like your life depends on it.
Finding common ground puts us on the track to solutions. I learned there is more to sports than the battle on the field. Players and coaches understand teamwork and have something to say. Who ever thought I'd be a sports fan?
(Thanks Mitch Albom for bringing all this to my attention. Detroit Free Press 11/19/17)

Biologist Will Ambrose appointed National Science Foundation program director
A distinguished career researching Arctic climate change has led Professor of Biology William Ambrose to a one-year position at the National Science Foundation leading the Arctic Observing Network program.
As an NSF program director, Ambrose will have authority over $12 million in research funding that in large part defines how scientists study climate change in the Arctic.
The program directorship, a one-year appointment with the potential for a second-year extension, is a powerful opportunity to help set the direction and strategy of Arctic research on a national scale, Ambrose said.
"I'll be managing all the research that the program funds," Ambrose said, "soliciting proposals, evaluating them with external reviewers, deciding with my NSF colleagues which projects get funded, and overseeing funded projects."
It's a great opportunity, he said, "to make a broad impact on Arctic science by helping set NSF policy."
The AON is a system of ocean buoys and satellites that gather data and information on the environmental conditions in the Arctic.
Data from the AON enables researchers, governments, and advocates to better understand the wide-ranging, significant, and rapid environmental changes occurring there.
Because appointments of this type typically go to scientists at research universities, Ambrose's selection speaks to his compelling body of Arctic research and the strength of the natural sciences at Bates, said Dean of the Faculty Matt Auer.
"Will's command of both short-term and long-term observations of environmental change make him an ideal candidate to serve as the director of the NSF's Arctic Observing program," Auer said.
As a biologist and oceanographer, Ambrose has made a name for himself among Arctic scientists by looking for clues to climate change in the shells of certain types of clams, and he and Bates colleague Michael Retelle, professor of geology, recently received a three-year, $337,228 NSF grant to pursue research in this area.
"A remarkable range of expertise."
Together, they are analyzing environmental changes that have been captured in clam shells over the course of a millennium. By studying changes in clam shells, they are able to plot fluctuations in sea temperature where the Barents and Norwegian seas meet.
"Will studies how recent and ongoing changes in the environment affect bottom-dwelling marine organisms," Auer said. "And by studying the hard parts of the shells of clams, he also measures changes to benthic (ocean floor) communities over hundreds of years.
"That's a remarkable range of expertise and the right combination to help NSF shape a program dealing with a region where climate change is especially pronounced."
"Bates makes this possible by providing financial support for student research and by requiring seniors complete a thesis before graduation."
For the last year, Ambrose has been in Norway on sabbatical at the University of Tromsø's geology department studying methane seep communities.
Ambrose, who started his Arlington, Va.-based appointment on June 15, said the NSF job would not have happened without the research assistance provided by his Bates students and the support he has received from colleagues.
An NSF director, Ambrose explained, must have an active research program and a strong record of NSF funding and scholarly publication.
In his case, "I have outstanding colleagues in geology and anthropology with whom I interact and co-write many proposals," he said.
Bates students enter the equation by "doing much of the research work," he said, work that Bates actively supports through "financial support for student research and by requiring seniors to complete a thesis before graduation."
Don't think that Ambrose is trading in his hip waders exclusively for a desk job.
His NSF appointment allows him to spend up to 20 percent of his time conducting his own research, although he acknowledges he'll likely have to cobble together research trips in conjunction with weekends and vacations.
He also anticipates the appointment with AON will greatly influence his teaching and present new opportunities for Bates students.
"I will be able to teach the newest research in Arctic science and climate change," he said. "Typically, NSF proposals are several years ahead of the published work. I also expect to make many contacts in the field that I can use to help place students in appropriate graduate programs."

Bush served on board of Florida timber firm facing lawsuits
Bush is not a defendant in the lawsuits
A timber company where expected Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush until recently served on the board of directors is facing lawsuits.
Top Video: Man gets 4 life sentences in home invasion, Alex Zaldivar murder
It's being sued over contamination of the Altamaha River in Georgia and allegedly making false and misleading statements to investors.
The lawsuits could renew questions about the former Florida governor's stewardship in the corporate world as he aspires to step back into public office.
Bush is not a defendant in the lawsuits. But he is listed among board members for Rayonier Inc. in court papers filed in the environmental case.
And on at least three other occasions, Bush served on the board of companies sued by investors or the government.

Comfort food.
I feel pretty rotten since last weekend; runny nose,
sore throat, coughing fits etc...
Instead of sticking to the healthy foods like kiwi fruit,
chicken soup and fresh vegetables ...
I had a Truffé Noir Orange Côte d'Or chocolate bar as breakfast
and for dinner this evening a pepper&salt Lay's SuperChips,
and of course lots of coca cola.
That's me in 1978 when I was in artschool; I remember
Pope Paul VI died that year and I also remember some
disco hits like Get Off and le freak c'est chic. :^)
I got the chocolate chicken from Veronik and the
marchmallow animals come from here.

Stephanie Taylor, whose petition to win insurance coverage for midwife services under the Affordable Care Act Sect. 2706 received media attention from Kaiser Health News, last week which reported on Stephanie's experience in California. She is expecting her first child in April. The online petition she began last month has passed 2,000 signatures at change.org.
Stephanie was inspired to insist on midwifery service as a right under Sec. 2706 after reading John Weeks' summary of the law and its inevitable collisions in his Huffington Post column of last August.

For his victory, Wooley earned $8,230. Wooley earned the first BFL win of his career in grand fashion, beating out second place by nearly 10 pounds. "It felt great to get my first win," said Wooley. "It's good to win on my own for once. "All the fish that I caught came off of one spot in 14 feet of water," said Wooley. "The first day I caught them really quickly. I had 19 pounds by 8:30 a.m.. It took me longer on the second day, but I still had my weight by 10:30 a.m.." Wooley found his key spot nearly by accident. "I was looking for some other fish and I just happened on these. It was a spot I'd never fished before, but they were the right size fish. Nearly every fish was big." The morning bite was key for Wooley. "The conditions were bad. It was hot and slick, with no current. It was pretty much a morning deal." Wooley said he caught his fish on a ½-ounce Strike King Tour Grade Football Shakey Head with a Strike King KVD Perfect Plastic Finesse Worm and a ¾-ounce Strike King Tour Grade Football Jig. Rounding out the top 10 pros were: 2nd: David Allen, Florence, Ala., 10 bass, 35-12, $3,115 3rd: William Davis, Sheffield, Ala., 10 bass, 34-8, $2,077 4th: Jeremy Utley, Florence, Ala., 10 bass, 33-8, $1,454 5th: Jason Lambert, Pickwick Dam, Tenn., 10 bass, 31-0, $1,246 6th: Shane Hogue, Hamilton, Ala., 10 bass, 28-4, $1,142 7th: Chris Wooten, West Point, Miss., 10 bass, 27-4, $1,038 8th: Nathan Ashmore, Baldwyn, Miss., 10 bass, 26-7, $934 9th: Roger Stegall, Iuka, Miss., eight bass, 25-6, $831 10th: Alan Langford, Tupelo, Miss., 10 bass, 25-5, $727 Complete results can be found at FLWOutdoors.com. Craig Mayo of Meridian, Miss., weighed in a nine bass totaling 27 pounds, 2 ounces Sunday to win $3,115 in the co-angler division. Rounding out the top 10 co-anglers were: 2nd: Matt Wooten, West Point, Miss., nine bass, 24-7, $1,557 3rd: Brice Cohea, Ripley, Miss., nine bass, 21-11, $1,040 4th: Eddie Laster, Morton, Miss., eight bass, 17-2, $727 5th: Shane Cade, Clinton, Miss., eight bass, 16-15, $623 6th: Gregory Pittman, Memphis, Tenn., five bass, 16-3, $571 7th: Shayne Barfield, Meridian, Miss., six bass, 14-4, $519 8th: Brian Cissom, Ripley, Miss., five bass, 13-3, $467 9th: Jerry Riddle, Summit, Miss., five bass, 12-12, $415 10th: Jason Smith, Killen, Ala., five bass, 12-2, $363 The top 40 boaters and 40 co-anglers based on point standings will qualify for the Oct. 10-12 Regional Championship on Kentucky Lake in Gilbertsville, Ky. Boaters will compete for a top award of a Ranger Z518 with a 200-horsepower Evinrude or Mercury outboard and a Chevy Silverado, while co-anglers will fish for a new Ranger Z518 with a 200-horsepower Evinrude or Mercury outboard. The BFL is a 24-division circuit devoted to weekend anglers, with 120 tournaments throughout the season, five in each division. The top 40 boaters and co-anglers from each division qualify for a regional tournament and compete to finish in the top six, which then qualifies them for one of the longest-running championships in all of competitive bass fishing – the Walmart BFL All-American presented by Chevy. Top winners in the BFL can move up to the EverStart Series or even the Walmart FLW Tour.

The Fly Leaf
Book and pictures courtesy of David Hricik.
The Fly Leaf
by Walter Blackburn Harte
The Fly Leaf was first published in December 1895 with the last issue published in April of 1896. In February of 1896 Hubbard proposed to Harte that The Fly Leaf and The Philistine be combined and that Harte work with him as a partner on The Philistine in East Aurora. At some point Hubbard proposed a 3 month trail relationship, which Harte was dubious about, but after further correspondence he agreed to close up shop and move to East Aurora. Hubbard placed Harte's arrival in East Aurora as December 1896 and his departure 13 days later as Jan 1st 1897. It seems that Hubbard did not really want a partner in The Philistine, if he ever did want one and tried to bring Harte on as a salaried employee. However the relationship actually went, it is apparent that this working relationship went much the same as did he business relationship with Harry Tabor who was the actual founder of The Roycroft Press.

It is the end of the week, and I still have one million tabs still open in my browser. My computer is making a weird noise. Is that because of all the tabs? Should I close some of them? Help. There is so much good stuff on the Internet, and not enough time to read/buy/listen to/guffaw at it. Here is a list of all tabs I didn't quite get around to this week:
- The Má Pêche menu—I start thinking about lunch very early in my day.
- My Google search for "italian restaurant staten island"—I start thinking about weekend food very early in the weekend (i.e. Friday).
- Marc Jacobs White Silk Tie Shirt—So cute!
- "The Clique Imaginary"—Really want to read this essay by Alana Massey about how strong friendships between women are criticized for being cliquey, "as if women's duty is to cast their friendship nets widely and superficially."
- Ovate's Spring collection—The writer Esmé Weijun Wang screenshotted some of the Canadian label's simple linen dresses this month, and I'm in lurve.
- "Eddie Huang's Spiky Chronicles of Asian-American Experience"—I clicked on this New Yorker article because I just watched the very funny Huang's World episode in which chef Eddie Huang returns to his hometown of Orlando, Florida, to celebrate Chinese New Year.
- "People Hated Clippy Because He Made Them Feel Powerless"—After LOLing at the title of this New York Magazine essay about Microsoft Word's helpful mascot, I neglected to actually read it.
- My Google search for "dog adoption nyc"—This one is a perennial, to be honest.
- Acne Studios' Rozenne dress in velvet dark moss—My summer aesthetic is going to be "invisible at dusk so I can steal people's wine."
- This tweet, because I relate:
- My Macy's shopping cart—My mother gave me a Macy's gift card, with which I bought a very fancy pair of compression tights that I then returned because I don't run, or do anything athletic that would require me to "compress." (Also, I don't actually know what compression tights are for.) What should I get instead? Plates? Eyeliner? A bed in a bag? IDK.
- "Ariana Grande Gets Grown"—I love the new Ariana Grande album, and very much want to know what MTV's Hazel Cills has to say about it.
- Who Weekly—Not the magazine, but the podcast, which everyone keeps telling me to listen to. I'm on it, OK???? Leave me alone.
- "And Now: A $7 Rainbow Donut, Covered in Donuts...Covered in More Donuts"—I kept this tab open for inspiration.
- Prostitute Laundryby Charlotte Shane—Shane hosted a reading that I attended last night, which reminded me that I want to read her non-fiction collection.
- "Top Ten: Best Sleeper Sofas and Sofa Beds"—Need to get my life in order, don't judge me.
- Cher's Twitter page—Always.

Dec 12, 2016 (LBO) – The government will not privatize or sell off any of the public asset and there were no provisions made under the Budget-2017 to this effect, the Finance Minister said.
"The Budget-2017 has made provision to convert the country into a manufacturing economy by converting the foreign debt into equity thereby reducing the debt burden of the people of this country," said Minister of Finance Ravi Karunanayake.
"The biggest challenge the country faced was the debt trap which made the country unaffordable to bring any return on its development."
As a result the government's revenue gradually deteriorated to an average of 11 percent of the GDP by 2014.
With the increased efficiency and eradiation of corruption in the revenue collection, the state revenue has increased to 13.6 percent of the GDP thus making it possible to meet the recurrent expenses, he said.
Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe during his recent visit to China held successful discussion with Chinese authorities to convert these credits into equity.
"Accordingly, the Hambanthota Port which failed to bring return on its huge investment will be converted in to a joint venture between the Sri Lanka Ports Authority and China with the equity of over one billion US dollars,"
"This will enable the government to retire a sizeable portion of the loan obtained for the Hambanthota Port."
Similarly, Mattala Airpot, Srilankan Airlines and Hambanthota Investment zone will have Public Private Partnership Investment (PPP) without selling off or privatizing any assets of the nation, he added.
Previously the land at the Army Headquarters at Galle face and a land at Hambanthota had been given as a freehold to a foreign company to construct Hotel complex.
Though there was a 100 percent levy on land purchased by foreigners these two hotels had been given exemptions, Karunanayake said.
"In addition, at the Colombo Port city the then government not only gave the foreign company the portion of reclaimed land as freehold,"
"But no sooner this government came into office it took the initiative to retake the land given freehold to China bringing them under the Sri Lankan jurisdiction."

Four teenagers shot during birthday party Saturday night in Marrero, JPSO says
Four teenagers were shot during a birthday party Saturday night in Marrero, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office said.
The shooting was reported around 11:30 p.m. at the Chit Chat Rental Hall at Lapalco Boulevard and Manor Heights Drive.
Investigators said approximately 25 teenagers were attending a birthday party for a 17-year-old when gunfire broke out at the building.
Paramedics arrived and found a 16-year-old boy with a gunshot wound to his right knee, a 16-year-old girl with a gunshot wound to her right cheek, a 15-year-old boy with a gunshot wound to his left lower leg and a 15-year-old boy with a gunshot wound to the back of his neck.
The Sheriff's Office said the four teenagers were taken to a hospital for treatment. None of their injuries are life-threatening.
During the course of the investigation, the Sheriff's Office found 18 spent shell casings on the opposite side of Lapalco Boulevard near Bonnie Ann Drive. Detectives believe there was more than one gunman in the incident.
The Sheriff's Office believes the gunmen got out of a vehicle, stood in front of the street and opened fire multiple times into the building. None of the victims have been identified.
Officials said a motive for the shooting has not been determined. Descriptions of the gunmen in the incident have not been released.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111. Additional updates are expected from the Sheriff's Office.

A Federal High Court in Lagos today granted Media Rights Agenda (MRA) leave to proceed with its Freedom of Information (FOI) suit against the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) for refusing to disclose details of payments of license fees by broadcasting stations and platforms operating in Nigeria and the amount owed the Commission by stations as license fees.
Justice Ambrose Lewis Alagoa paved the way for the suit to proceed upon a preliminary motion brought by MRA's lawyer, Mr. Alimi Adamu, asking the Court to grant the organization leave to mount a legal challenge to NBC's failure to provide it with the information it requested through a letter dated August 22, 2022.
In the suit in which the NBC and the Attorney-General of the Federation are named as Respondents, MRA is contending that the NBC's refusal to provide it with the information it requested amounts to a breach of its right of access to information as well as a flagrant violation of the FOI Act.
The motion ex-parte brought by Mr. Adamu, pursuant to Order 34, Rules 1, 3(1) and (2) of the Federal High Court (Civil Procedure) Rules 2009 and Sections 1(3) and 20 of the FOI Act, asked the court to grant MRA leave to seek the following reliefs:
· A declaration that the NBC's denial of access to MRA of the information it requested by a letter dated August 22, 2022 constitutes a violation of the organization's rights of access to information established and guaranteed by Section 1(1) and 4 of the FOI Act;
· A declaration that the NBC's failure and/or refusal to give MRA a written notice that access to all or part of the information it requested would not be granted with reasons for the denial and the section of the FOI Act upon which the Commission relied to deny the organization access to the information requested amounts to a flagrant violation of Section 4 (b) and 7 (1) of the FOI Act;
· A declaration that by its failure to give MRA access to all or part of the information applied for in its letter dated August 22, 2022, within the time limit set out in the Act, the NBC is deemed to have refused to give MRA access to the information requested, as provided under Section 7(4) of the FOI Act;
· An order directing the NBC to disclose or make available to MRA a list of all broadcasting stations and platforms operating in Nigeria licensed by the Commission; the amount that each of them is required to pay as license fees; the status of payment of each of the station from the date of its license to August 22, 2022; for those licensed broadcasting stations that are owing, the amount of indebtedness and the period covered by the amount; and for broadcasting corporations owned by various State Governments included in the list of the broadcasting stations whose broadcast licenses were revoked by the Commission as announced by its Director-General in his press briefing on August 19, 2022, a breakdown of the amount of indebtedness by each of the radio stations and each of the television stations owned by the respective State-owned broadcasting corporations.
· An order directing the NBC to deposit the information requested by MRA with the court pending the determination of the suit;
· An order directing the NBC to pay to MRA the sum of N1 million as exemplary and aggravated damages for the flagrant and unlawful violation of the organization's right of access to information; and
· An order directing the Attorney-General of the Federation to initiate criminal proceedings against the NBC for the offence of wrongful denial of access to information under Section 7 (5) of the FOI Act.
Upon listening to Mr. Adamu move the motion and after reviewing the motion papers as well as a copy of MRA's request to the NBC, Justice Alagoa granted the request as prayed.

Tinubu Reading January Newspaper In October, This Photo Is A Disappointment – Omokri
Nigerian socio-political activist, Reno Omokri, has taken to the microblogging platform, Twitter, to mock the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congres (APC), Bola Tinubu, over a viral photo showing him reading a January 2022 newspaper in October 2022.
Recall that Tinubu had posted a photo of himself earlier on the bird app reading a newspaper.
Tinubu's photo which is perceived to be an attempt by the presidential hopeful to dispel rumours about his health status has since generated a barrage of reactions on social media.
Joining the host of others in making a mockery of the presidential candidate, Omokri on Thursday afternoon wrote: "This story was published on January 23, 2022. First an old video of your riding an exercise bike. Now, an old photo of your reading ab outdated newspaper? Bola, you should definitely fire the propagandist handling your Twitter account."

If Taylor Swift's music drop on Spotify was a dig at Katy Perry (who continues to spill more and more tea), then she's gonna have to think of another move because Perry had another trick up her sleeve. The pop-star revealed that she will be livestreaming her entire weekend (from Thursday to Sunday) on her YouTube channel. That means that there will be almost 100 hours worth of Perry content for her Katy Kats (and websites), and time to play her new album, Witness, again and again and again. It's one of the most over-the-top promotional events, ever.
The livestream is taking place at Witness World Wide headquarters, which is a fun house in Los Angeles made especially for this multi-day promotional event. There are cameras all around the headquarters to capture Perry's team (chef, assistant, dog) and her guests (a record-holding domino artist and Gordon Ramsey, to name a few). So far, the 32-year-old is being quite candid dancing around and singing the lyrics to her songs (sans curse words) and sharing some behind-the-scenes information about her life (she doesn't drink coffee anymore because she drinks a green food supplement).
The premise of the living art installation (if we want to generously call it that) has ties to her new album title. The singer wants fans to be able to "witness" her. She's also doing giveaways with sponsors to entice fans to stay glued to the stream. But viewers can't help but notice that the ongoing video is quickly turning into Real World: Katy Perry, and is likewise reminding fans of Big Brother because of all the cameras. Viewers are both intrigued and confused by what they're seeing, and how she's going to keep up this charade for three more days.
Katy Perry is doing a Big Brother style livestream in a house for a few days & its the oddest thing I've ever seen. But I can't look away? ?— Daniel Preda (@MisterPreda) June 9, 2017

Schieffer Symposium talks 2012 election
Published April 12, 2012
The imminent battle between President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney was the focus of conversation Wednesday night at the eighth annual Schieffer Symposium on the News, which featured three White House correspondents, POLITICO's co-founder and Bob Schieffer, CBS News' chief Washington correspondent and university alumnus.
The panel included 1959 graduate Schieffer, moderator of CBS News' "Face the Nation"; Norah O'Donnell, CBS News chief White House correspondent; Jake Tapper, ABC News senior White House correspondent; POLITICO co-founder and Editor-in-Chief John Harris and NBC News chief White House Correspondent and Political Director Chuck Todd, who also hosts "The Daily Rundown" on MSNBC.
Given former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum's announcement Tuesday that he suspended his campaign, the panelists' discussion honed in on the competition between Obama and his likely opponent in the general election — Romney.
Todd said he sensed Obama and Romney had respective advantages and an almost equal financial playing field, which could lead to a bitter, intense race.
"I think it's going to be a very close election," Todd said. "I think it's going to be a very negative election. I think it's going to be an election where the turnout is down, not up."
Schieffer agreed with Todd and said the results would not be a landslide.
Tapper said he believed the election would come down to the decisions of about 5 or 6 million voters, given his predictions that Obama could never poll better than 53 percent and Romney worse than 47 percent.
Citing a poll conducted last month by the Wall Street Journal and NBC News, O'Donnell said more than 40 percent of Americans had very negative feelings about Romney. No candidate has fared so poorly so early in the election cycle since former President Bill Clinton, she said.
Much of this negativity, she said, was due to voters' feelings that Romney was out of touch with average Americans.
Both candidates had their respective weaknesses, the panelists said.
Todd said he felt Romney was unable to open up to the public, given his scrutinized faith background, Mormonism, and his voting record, which some say was too moderate.
"What's wrong with being moderate?" Schieffer asked, answered by laughter throughout the audience.
The panelists also agreed health care would be a hot-button issue throughout
the election.
O'Donnell said one of the strongest arguments Republicans could make against Obama was the Affordable Care Act, which she said many people deemed complex and burdensome.
"Do you think anyone in America knows what's in the health-care legislature?" Schieffer said. "In all my years in Washington…I haven't run into anybody who seems to have a good grip of what's in it."
Todd said he did not think health care would be a concern for the majority of voters, however, because many people had health coverage. O'Donnell disagreed, pointing out that many people disliked their health care.
As for the next steps in the election, Todd said the focus would turn to swing states, which were neither staunchly Republican nor Democrat. He projected these battlegrounds would include Ohio, Florida, Colorado, Nevada and Virginia.
Later in the symposium, the panelists fielded questions from the audience, two of which regarded the popularity among young people held by Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas. Tapper said he did not believe Paul would run as a third party candidate.
The journalists also discussed political polarization.
"To me, the whole idea [that] compromise has become a dirty word…I just don't think that's helpful to a democratic society," Schieffer said.

There will be at least one new face on the Baldwin County Commission after the 2018 elections and three incumbents are seeking to retain their seats.
District 1's Frank Burt and District 4's Skip Gruber are seeking to retain their seats, as is District 3's Tucker Dorsey.
District 2's Chris Elliott has announced he is running for the Alabama Senate seat Trip Pittman will voluntarily leave next year.
Baldwin County's primaries aren't until June 5, with runoffs set for July 17 and the general election Nov. 6. All of the declared candidates are Republicans; no Democratic candidates have decided to run.
Each of the four commission seats has at least two candidates, with three vying for the southernmost District 4. In that district, Christopher Callaghan and Orange Beach Councilman Jerry Johnson are seeking to beat three-term incumbent Skip Gruber.
Gruber says the county faces several infrastructure challenges in roads and in the county school system and he wants to stay on to help find solutions to those issues.
"The citizens voted down the toll authority for the county, which would have helped us a lot finishing up the beach express from I-10 to I-65," Gruber said. "We could've been moving along with that project a lot better. Tax dollars are just not there to do a $200 million project. We need to look at alternatives."
Callaghan — a lawyer who sits on the Orange Beach Planning Commission — said his decision is an exciting, serious step.
"I believe that my skill set makes me uniquely qualified for this opportunity," he said.
Johnson is in his second term on the Orange Beach City Council and says leadership is a key to the commission seat.
"Leadership is not about the leader; it is about the people they serve," Johnson said. "I espouse servant leadership, which means I will work to help the county employees and the residents."
In District 1, longtime commissioner Frank Burt is seeking re-election to his ninth term on the commission, having served every term since the 1988 election. Burt has served on countless boards and panels during his 29 years of service.
Running against him is Jeb Ball, program director for Baldwin Substance Abuse Services Inc. in Bay Minette. He has served in the Baldwin County District Attorney's office from 1998-2007. Ball founded Baldwin Substance Abuse Services Inc., a company certified by the Administrative Office of Courts to provide court-ordered Level 1, Level 2 and educational classes involving drug- or alcohol-related crimes.
In District 2, a sitting Daphne councilman and former Daphne councilman are vying to fill Chris Elliott's seat.
Joe Davis, who was appointed to the council in 2013, said he knows how important continued economic development and job growth are for the county, and wants to continue his focus on those key areas. John Lake was on the Daphne City Council for 24 years before running for mayor in 2016 when he lost to incumbent Dane Haygood.
Meanwhile in District 3, Tucker Dorsey is a real estate developer who has served, and continues to serve, on several boards and commissions throughout Baldwin County. Running against him are Billie Jo Underwood and Will McDaniel.
Underwood is a certified public accountant from Summerdale, where she has served on the city's planning commission.
In June, the Alabama Legislature passed a bill to award pay raises to Baldwin County commissioners, from their previous salary of $33,600 per year to the county's median family income, $50,240. The new salary goes into effect in November 2018 and will be reviewed every four years.

Questions taken from asipiringwriter22's blog this week. Check her out to see what she said, and feel free to answer these questions on your own blog! These were taken from both her "for writers" and "for readers" posts.
Would you rather only write standalones or trilogies?
Trilogies, probably. I have a few standalones in me, but I'm just more passionate about my universes that have series potential.
Would you rather be a professional writer or a professional blogger?
I said "pro writer" at first, but I think pro blogger would be more fun because it would allow me to work from home and do something interesting without interfering with my passion projects. Never do a passion project for money, unless you want to ruin it for yourself.
Would you rather hand write or have to type for the rest of your life?
Type! No question.
Would you rather be forced to write everything in uppercase or lowercase letters?
Lowercase. I've known a few people who only wrote in lowercase, actually.
Would you rather only write 2 pages per day or 250 pages per week?
250 would certainly make me more productive.
Would you rather be traditionally published or self published?
It depends on the project, honestly. I've been doing a lot of research on starting a self-published erotica and nonfiction business. I think self-publishing benefits those markets and will yield the biggest returns. But for novel-lengthed fiction, traditional publishing is still king. The audience is just not there for it in the self-published market right now. Even in the self-publishing manual I was reading this weekend, the guy admits that his methodologies would probably not work well with novels.
Would you rather only write in pen or pencil?
I adore pens. Especially colored pens.
Would you rather only be allowed to write at your desk or anywhere else in the world?
I could happily spend the rest of my life writing exclusively at my desk.
Would you rather only read trilogies or only read standalones?
When it comes to reading, I'm fine with both, although most trilogies/series these days are overbloated stories that could have been accomplished in one or two books. I find that standalone books usually leave me wanting more, and series books leave me wishing the author would just get to the point.
Would you rather only read male or female authors?
I don't really have a preference, although I think supporting female authors is important.
Would you rather shop at Barnes and Noble or Amazon?
Amazon is where I buy pretty much everything. I love browsing in B&N, but everything is way too expensive to buy. I get most of my books from the local used book store.
Would you rather books were made into TV shows or movies?
Movies. Again, I find TV shows often have bloat. Most books don't translate well to a serial format either. Unless you've got a series the length of A Song of Ice and Fire to work with, I don't see how long a TV Show could last with much things. However, I am super excited about the A Series of Unfortunate Events series that Netflix released a trailer for today. I wonder if they're going to simply cover the relatively short series, or expand beyond the books and come up with new stories to tell post-"The End."
Would you rather read only 5 pages per day or 5 books per week?
5 books a week would definitely be more productive.
Would you rather be a professional author or reviewer?
Professional author. My opinions are probably too unpopular to be a good reviewer.
Would you rather be a librarian or a bookseller?
Hmm. A librarian probably has better pay/benefits.
Would you rather read only your favorite genre, or every other genre but your favorite?
I think it's important to have variety, so every other genre. I've also found that I'm really picky when it comes to my favorite genre (fantasy), and I'm more in tuned to the tropes, clichés, etc. of it. It's actually more difficult for me to enjoy fantasy novels, despite it being my favorite thing to write.
Would you rather only read ebooks or physical books?
I could give up ebooks.

Customer Reviews
I really like the headphone cable of this headset, because it is not particularly long, unlike the earphone cord of some Bluetooth headsets, it can grow up to two rounds around the neck. In addition, the power can be used for a long time, charging I use flash charging, it will be full in an hour or so. The earphone is my second life, the earphone can hardly leave my ear, so I really like its battery!
I use these at work and they drown out my noisy co-workers. Sound quality is really good, I'm not disappointed. Price was right, battery life is exactly as advertised. Good purchase!
When I was listening to music, the music suddenly stumbled, which made me a little embarrassed.

Customer Reviews
I have small ears and the rubber pieces really help them stay in my ears. I can still hear through them and they don't get really loud to allow me to get into the music. But I love that they are Bluetooth and i can use them for phone calls.
Really pretty, earphones work fine, wear very comfortable. The earphones are small, easy to carry, do not hurt the ears, the sound is particularly clear, full and round, treble clear, mid-range full, thick bass, and the price is very cheap. Sure enough, It did not live up to my trust. With three pairs of earplugs, you can choose to wear them according to your own ear, and you won't lose it when you run. I bought it for running, I don't want to be bound by the headphone cable, and the customer service is very enthusiastic. In short, I am very satisfied.
The sound quality is very good and no noise, easy to use, the battery is very durable, used for one day, the battery is still more than half, recommend everyone to buy it!
Sticks nicely to ear and doesn't fall out during the run. High-grade materials used to produce a quality headset. Excellent sports headset with good sound quality that can be enjoyed during exercise. Controls are easy to operate and a bargain buys for the price.
Love these earbuds. Very easy to use and I love that they can click together so they don't slide off your neck!

Last week the American Trucking Association (ATA) announced that truck tonnage in August reached 149, up 7.1% from July's level and 8.2% over August 2016. Bob Costello, Chief Economist for the ATA, attributes the tonnage increase to hurricane preparation and strong port volumes, adding that the index was higher than economic indicators would have predicted.
Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria have all had a significant impact on trucking. One source estimates that, between the Labor Day demand slowdown and Hurricane Harvey, truck capacity postings declined by 20% during early September. Another publication indicated that Hurricane Harvey alone could require 7% of U.S. trucking capacity. Companies from all over the country have been sending trucks full of disaster relief materials, including over 2.1 million meals and 2.2 million liters of water.
According to the ATA, tonnage is expected to slow down in September as commercial activities in Houston remain offline, leading to an overall smoothing of the hurricane impacts. Trucking is a significant indicator of economic activity, since so many goods in the U.S. are shipped via truck.
Tonnage has been steadily rising over the past several years, and the latest numbers bring the tonnage index to the highest level seen in years. Along with increasing capacity has been rising costs, as more demand is chasing trucking companies. Prices have been increasing for the past year, driven by tight carrier capacity.
