Divine Nweke: How Serena Williams's Advice To Me Helps Me On The Court – Nigerian Teenager Speaks
Posted by: Our Correspondent in Breaking News, Latest news, Nigerians Abroad March 23, 2019 0 847 Views
Getting to the top of their career is the most likely thing on the minds of many players when they start out their professional tennis careers, but beyond that, they also need some (consistent) words of encouragement for them to push on.
For Divine Nweke, the young, athletic Denmark-born Nigerian tennis teenager, such words of encouragement may have come in abundance, especially after she met with the world tennis legend, Serena Williams.
The American female superstar who may have forgotten she said such anything, has since engraved some words on the marble of young Divine's heart; the same words have kept her going on the court.
The youngster sure has a dream and is working steadily towards achieving it.
In this WEEKEND SPECIAL by Nigeria Tennis Live, we take a deep look at this 14-year-old's tennis journey so far. The Good, The Bad, The Ugly…
Nigerian roots
Being born and raised in Denmark by two Nigerian parents has certainly not taken anything away from this youngster's connection to her roots as she is still very familiar with the activities of her parents and even knows the dad id from Mbaise Local Government are of Imo State.
"Yeah, I've been there before; about four times," she began.
"I feel at home in Denmark, but I love the food, culture and weather in Nigeria. I really like Egusi soup.
"I remember the village… lots of animals were there and I really liked it out there when I visited," the world's 283 ranked Divine offered amid laughter.
Why Tennis?
"Why tennis? There was a tennis court at the back of our house when I was pretty young. We used to go there to grill and I really loved it. I wanted to play at four but couldn't because they thought I was too young.
Divine is one of the top juniors in Denmark.
"So, I waited till I was six before being allowed to play.
"I actually did gymnastics for about a week and swimming for two months; and that's it. Then, I preferred tennis and went for it instead," she said after being asked why she preferred tennis to other sports.
The young girl whose middle name is Chidasaram said she was motivated to start playing tennis because "I really liked the feeling of playing the balls, it's really fun. All the mental power of the game. I feel really at home playing tennis, and I really don't like anything else."
And as weird as it may seem, the Danish top U-16 player won her very first tournament a year after she started playing tennis.
According to her, her first tournament win came on the heels of consecutive losses.
"The first time I lost in the finals, I was so angry. I practiced and practiced until I was good enough to win," she said.
Meeting With Serena Williams:
"Two players actually motivate Me; Serena Williams (of course) and Roger Federer. I like Serena's strength and power, I've met her before and she's very nice. She's set the bar high for anyone who wants to be like her. She's what everyone wants to be.
Serena Williams sure left a lasting impression in the heart of young Divine.
"We had gone to watch her play in Sweden when I was nine, and I asked her to sign my ball and she signed. She said 'of course', and asked me to keep going and struggling until I reached my goal.
"I've got a lot of hope in myself because if Serena Williams of all people could say that I should keep going, it really got me going," Dasam said with a lot of belief
Goal in tennis
Like most tennis players, the youngster wants to be the world's number one female tennis player, win grand slams and become role models for other players.
"I feel I'm very close but I need funding because I cannot travel without money. Even if you're really good, without funding, you cannot become number one in the world. I also need a coach," she offered.
"I had one before but he traveled back to Argentina because we couldn't pay him. We paid him about N500k per month for two years.
"I need some guardian sometimes. Sometimes, I really need someone to help me."
"I go through challenges, but I take it positively. It's easy to motivate yourself, but it's difficult to do that if you're not calm," she added, sounding quite unhappy.
"I attend a Sports School – they make it easier for me to travel. I just want to play more ITF tournaments and top the rankings."
She just wants to be the best in the sport, but without sponsorship, nothing can be achieved.
Nigeria or Denmark?
"If I get a sponsor, I would be willing to represent Nigeria at any junior tournament.
"One of my biggest challenges is sponsorship. I currently have Head and Diadem sponsoring me with tennis clothing and equipment, but traveling to play matches and achieve my goals is something that requires huge sponsorship," Divine calmly and firmly told Nigeria Tennis Live.
Does Divine have a boyfriend already since some of her mates may already have?
She laughed, before replying: "I don't think about those things. I am just focused on my tennis and I don't want distractions."
Wants to play more ITF tournaments and top the ranking.

Why 'resilience' is the latest buzzword in parenting
Why resilience is the new buzzword in parenting
There are things that happen in life that no parent can predict or coach their child for. How do you prepare your child for a world you may not recognise or for jobs that don't exist yet? While these can be daunting thoughts for parents of young kids, uncertainty isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Starting in childhood, uncertainty is an opportunity to learn to adapt to different or changing environments in the future, and a chance to build resilience, coping skills and confidence to overcome challenges or trip-ups.
Resilience and why it matters
Like the analogy of a ship weathering a storm, resilience is a learnt ability to keep an even keel despite the conditions. This self-reliance turns obstacles into opportunities; it prepares children for future challenges like competitions, job interviews, exams and disappointments.
In more straight forward terms, resilience is the quality of being able to achieve a good outcome in the face of adversity. Dr Jack Shonkoff, from the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, describes this as "the kinds of capacities, skills and abilities, that give people a sense of mastery and management of difficulty."
The effects of early life experiences last a lifetime and can help build resilience and influence development and function of all organ systems. But it's not just immunity and the physical where resilience matters; resilience is multi-dimensional. Emotional resilience arms us to succeed and thrive mentally, creative resilience allows us to problem solve better, and social resilience gives us a strong foundation for social interactions.
Dr. Megan R Gunnar, of the Institute of Child Development at the University of Minnesota, says, "We care about resilience for the same reason that we care about promoting healthy development, because in many respects it is the same.
"We are interested in promoting resilience in children, so that despite the odds, more and more children grow up to be productive citizens."
For young children, who are mostly reliant on external environments to shape and change the brain – as their internal thoughts and intentions are not developed yet – exposing them to new experiences, feelings and environments is critical.
In these scenarios, learning how to cope and overcome "manageable threats" is essential for developing resilience. Harvard University's Center on the Developing Child goes on to say:
"Not all stress is harmful. There are numerous opportunities in every child's life to experience manageable stress – and with the help of supportive adults, this 'positive stress' can be growth-promoting. Over time, we become better able to cope with life's obstacles and hardships, both physically and mentally."
Becoming a master of their emotions and social situations
Emotional resilience is about developing emotional strength, from testing the limits of their fear to learning to control emotions like anger. When it comes to fear, children tend to have a good sense of how much is too much. Generally, kids are able to conduct a fine balance between excitement and terror, which is why researchers in this field encourage opportunities to play that are self-directed and self-controlled.
And it's not just a desire to climb trees or jump off things, children seek out socially challenging situations, like playing with children they don't know or older children, which is key to them learning to cooperate and navigate conflict. The social resilience and emotional skills that come from these social situations is pivotal in promoting healthy psychological development as well.
Resilience – it's not built overnight
If your child is shy or tantrum-prone, you may feel as if building resilience is not in easy reach. However, it's better to see resilience as a journey over time, as University of Oregon's Dr Philip Fisher says: "It's tempting to think about children as either having this resilient quality or not, but resilience is built over time, just as, and in parallel with, how the architecture of the brain is built over time."
In other words, resilience is a muscle that can strengthened at any age. Initiating regular physical exercise, mindfulness practices, and opportunities to play out certain cognitive behaviours are all ways for children to work on resilience skills. And it's better if they aren't left to do it on their own. Parents and adults can best teach these skills by modelling them and doing them with their kids. Research shows that having a reliable presence of one or more supportive adults and more opportunities to stretch these skills greatly enhances kids' abilities to develop resilience.
Allowing your child to experience the world around them from a young age is a great way to build their resilience and ready them for the future.
Be a gardener, not a carpenter, in their playtime
Play is how young children first begin to engage and interact with the world. Playtime with parents, from peek-a-boo to 'real activities', is essential for kids' development. But there is also a part of playtime where adults should step away to let kids do their own thing.
Unlike more constructive play, undirected play, where children drive the play themselves, is what encourages kids use their creativity, improve dexterity and build competence in how they interact with objects and other children. It pushes them to master their internal and external worlds, without the guidance of an adult.
Naturally, we want to guide our children and show them how to do things. However, when adults control play, children abide by adult rules and directions, leading to a loss in some of benefits of play like fostering creativity, leadership and group skills.
Author and psychology professor, Alison Gopnik, calls this being a gardener and not a carpenter. In her book, The Gardener and the Carpenter: What the New Science of Child Development Tells Us About the Relationship Between Parents and Children, she describes a carpenter as someone who treats a child as if they are a raw material to be shaped into something, while a gardener is someone who approaches caregiving as tending a garden, nurturing plants to flourish. To be a gardener, it's important to create scaffolding for children to build knowledge and discover for themselves, while not actually directly teaching or telling them what to do.
In recent years, to support this undirected play, 'junk playgrounds' have begun to pop up around the globe. Of course, you don't need to make the pilgrimage to such places. Crawling about in the sand at the beach, making mudpies in the backyard, playing with leaves at the local park and messing around with pets on the floor, are all great ways for kids to get a feel of the world around them and encounter new experiences and sensations. Diversity of experience and being able to engage their imaginations is what's important.
Leading paediatricians recommend giving children ample, unscheduled, independent, non-screen time to be creative, to reflect, and to decompress that is monitored but not necessarily directed by adults.
In a 2017 presentation, Dr Tim Moore, a Senior Research Fellow at the Royal Children's Hospital summed up what children need as: having a responsive caregiver – someone who is attuned and responds to their child's needs – and a secure and safe space for exploration, to interact socially and to be their own masters.
In this environment, children will develop the capabilities, confidence and resilience they need to face whatever their future may bring.

Resilience has become the new buzzword in parenting, but what is it and how can we foster it in our children? Find out in this episode of The Science of Raising them Ready.

                System.out.println();

        }
        catch(Exception e){
            System.out.println(e);
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
     }

 }

A: Here is the approach I would use:

*

*Add a queue to the output thread.  Make sure access is synchronized.

*Add a method to the output thread (say addWork) that accepts a String and adds it to the output queue.

*Let the run method of the output thread continually dequeue Strings and write them to the file.

*Let the other thread pass Strings to the output thread by calling addWork(String).

A: Pass the stringbuffer in as a parameter to both.
Any time you access the stringbuffer, make sure you do it inside a synchronized block
synchronized(myStringBuffer) {
    myStringBuffer.append("Awesome text");
}

and
synchronized(myStringBuffer) {
    myFileOutput.writeln(myStringBuffer.toString());
}

examples above.

As China's domestic bonds head for imminent inclusion in a benchmark global index, one large US fund manager is taking a cautious approach.
"My guess is that we will buy some once we get the settlement capabilities, but it's not a high conviction sort of view," said Brendan Murphy, who helps manage $37bn at Mellon, a $482bn asset manager based in Boston. The first step would be to buy "a small amount" of government bonds as the team gauges the market's liquidity and trading conditions, he said in an interview in Sydney.
China has mounted a years-long campaign to boost foreign investment into its bond market, set to become the world's second biggest, in part to counter downward pressures on the yuan's exchange rate. While record inflows have indeed come, they have been dominated by central banks, rather than private-sector investors.
Just how big the global demand for Chinese debt will be depends on the decisions by Murphy, his counterparts and their clients.
"It's going to be interesting because it's going to be different; it's been largely a domestic market, it's going to be different once international investors start to get involved and it becomes part of the index," said Murphy, head of global and multi-sector fixed income at Mellon, in an interview last week.
"If we get comfortable with it, potentially dig deeper – but we are not there yet.'' Chinese bonds proved a great diversification play in 2018, advancing steadily while many markets saw losses – reflecting the People's Bank of China's shift toward stimulus mode in contrast to tightening by the US Federal Reserve. Foreign investors tend to prefer government and so-called policy-bank securities, issued by key state-owned lenders. Credit is more exposed to accounting-transparency issues, along with a record pace of defaults.
Murphy spoke days after Bloomberg LP said Chinese local-currency bonds will be added to the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index on a phased basis from April. Bloomberg LP is also the parent of Bloomberg News. Market participants anticipate other key index providers will also incorporate Chinese debt in time.
Chinese bonds have much less liquidity than major peers, something that's given some investors pause. Goldman Sachs Group Inc estimates that turnover for government bonds was 1.3 times in 2018, after annualising January through September data.
Treasuries turned over 4.6 times, while South Korean bonds came in at 3.4 times, Goldman analysts tallied.
Bond Connect China's 2017 move to allow investments via the Hong Kong Bond Connect have made it easier for foreign investors to access the market, though logistics remain an issue for some, and a relative lack of hedging tools is also a concern.
Still, Goldman's Kenneth Ho in December anticipated some $1tn in foreign inflows through the end of 2022.
That would bring overseas ownership to about 6% of the total outstanding, from little more than 2% today, Ho wrote in a report.
For his part, Murphy in his global portfolio will be looking to pare back on risk during what may be a six to nine- month window of stability before what he sees as a likely resumption of Fed rate hikes.
That could mean selling triple B rated corporate debt and buying single A or double As, or favoring government bonds over credit, he said.


Several businesses are collecting food and toys for charities preparing for the holiday season.
Southern States Cooperative is joining with local food banks to promote the first annual Southern States Holiday Food Drive.
Beginning Nov. 14 and continuing through Dec. 18, many Southern States locations will be working with area food banks to help fill the shelves with food that will go to families in need during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. These participating retail locations will serve as collection centers for customers who bring in canned goods and non-perishable items, and Southern States will make regular deliveries of the donated items to the food banks.
The Southern States location in our area is at 1609 West Washington St., Petersburg.
Southern States is a Richmond, Virginia-based farm supply and service cooperative, founded in 1923 that now has more than 300,000 farmer-members. Visit http://www.southernstates.com for more information.
The new Great Clips in Southpark Crossing, located at 1058 Temple Ave., Colonial Heights, will be a drop off point for non-perishable items to be donated to the Colonial Heights Food Pantry and toys for Toys for Tots.
"During the Holiday Season we wanted to come up with a way to serve the local community, and citizens in need," said Rashanda Payne, salon manager.
Great Clips will offer a $2.00 discount on haircuts for any customer bringing in a non-perishable item or toy.
The Hopewell-Prince George Chamber of Commerce is collecting toys for Fort Lee service members.
New, unwrapped toys for babies to teens will be collected until Dec. 2.
Drop off your toys or gift cards at the chamber office, open from Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 210 N. 2nd Ave., Hopewell.
The chamber can also arrange to have your donated toys picked up at your business.
Call or email Sarita Harding, 804-732-4344 or sbprinting@aol.com.
Breckenridge Chiropractic will hold its 18th Annual Food Drive on Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
For those who bring in a generous non-perishable food donation, they will receive a $25 gift certificate towards services only in their office that day.
For those who would like to be seen as a patient in our office that day, they should call 804-748-2763 for an appointment as slots fill up quickly.
Breckenridge Chiropractic is located at 12300 Bermuda Crossroads Lane, Chester.

City Council Sides With Firefighters, Overrides Veto By Nutter
By Mike Dunn
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Mayor Nutter's long-running contract dispute with the firefighters union boiled over in City Council this past week. The lawmakers overrode a Nutter veto and ordered millions of dollars set aside to pay for the contract.
Mayor Nutter had earlier vetoed Councilman David Oh's bill that would force the mayor to earmark $66-million toward the firefighters award, to be used if the contract dispute is settled in the union's favor.
This past week, Council members unanimously overrode the veto, and Oh says that money must now be earmarked:
"We have set aside a portion of that balance to be used for that purpose. Now the mayor may not use it, but I do not think that he can use it for other purposes."
The Nutter Administration has already announced that it is setting aside $31-million toward the eventual contract resolution.
Oh says the higher number — $66 million — is the amount that would be owed even if the Administration prevails, though the administration disputes that point.
The mayor and the union have been battling over the new deal since 2009, with Nutter contending that the arbitrator's award is too expensive.

On December 16, 24 enemy divisions, 10 of which were armored, launched a massive counterattack in the Ardennes sector, resulting in what became known as the Battle of the Bulge. After coming back from the Aachen area, the Big Red One held the critical shoulder of the "Bulge" at Bullingen, destroying loads of German tanks in the process. In the course of December and January they pushed the Germans back to their original starting position. On January 15, 1945, the First Infantry Division attacked and penetrated the Siegfried line for the second time.

Are you able to read/write with the software now, or just program from the the dial/light method?
I haven't had a TK278 is YEARS! I really can't remember. I'm sorry, it's been too long.
Have you tried to read/write the radio with software?
They are for different models, but it should point you in the right direction. There is more than one reference to diode 17 (D17), so that may be your answer. They are also using different button combinations as well.
If you hold the light button at the same time as turning the channel knob, it will step in MHz increments.


Toile has only grown in popularity since its first began being produced for the masses in 1760. In fact it was first manufactured in a village outside of Paris known as Jouy-en-Josas, which is why the original name for the material was Toile de Jouy before being shortened to toile. From a factory in this village - a location chosen for its access to the running water that was necessary for dyeing - came the first mass produced toile fabric. These high-quality, 18th century fabrics established toile as a luxury fabric; a fabric that maintains a strong following today. Toile has traditionally been seen as a formal fabric but the addition of unique patterns and colors has introduced toile to a whole new audience that appreciates how it can be both classic and contemporary. Its versatility is surely its strong point; it is equally stunning as drapery or chair upholstery and lends itself to variety of applications.
At WarehouseFabricsInc.com it is our goal to help you find the designer fabric that will allow you to realize your decorating vision. Whether you are interested in toile fabric or silk fabric, traditional or modern, you�ll find the selection and prices you�ll appreciate here on our online fabric store. If you have any questions about our fabric, or you would like help with finding exactly what you need, please do not hesitate to call on us.

Thursday news: AccessIT hits 1000 screens... PJ on Xbox ... Warner cuts online division
- AccessIT's Christie/AIX subsidiary has installed its 1000th digital cinema system in the US.
- Director Peter Jackson has agreed to "create content" (note they didn't say "produce games") for Microsoft's Xbox 360 gaming console. From the AP story:
"I don't want to classify it as a game. I'm hoping to stretch the definition of interactive entertainment to go beyond the game," said Shane Kim, a vice president in charge of Microsoft Game Studios.
Kim acknowledged that he was not sure what exactly these new "entertainments" might be.
Whatever they are, Kim said they could include deeper plot lines and more interactive drama with additional content available over time, perhaps through the company's Xbox Live online service.
"It's about making interactive entertainment a mainstream form of entertainment," Kim said.
- Warner Bros. is shuttering its online division, created in the 1990s. But most of the employees will be moved over to WB Digital Distribution, and, as the story points out "original digital content for the Web will [still] be produced under the studio's TV and movie units." About 19 jobs will be eliminated, though.
