Cost of Iraq war $440 Billion
$120b more is sought for war efforts
Request would put total at $440b
By Bryan Bender, Globe Staff | February 3, 2006
WASHINGTON -- The White House will ask Congress for an additional $70 billion to fund the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan for the remainder of the fiscal year -- nearly double some government estimates of what would be needed just a few months ago -- and will also seek $50 billion more as a down payment for those wars in 2007, administration officials said yesterday.
If approved by Congress, the request would bring the fighting costs for fiscal 2006, which ends Sept. 30, to about $120 billion, $35 billion more than the $85 billion that the Congressional Budget Office estimated last year that the Pentagon would need for this fiscal year. The new request would also bring total war spending since the 2001 terrorist attacks to $440 billion. The new war request was announced a day after the House of Representatives cut nearly $40 billion from the budget, mostly from social programs, to help fend off rising deficits. The additional funding, according to the White House Office of Management and Budget, includes an estimated $4.5 billion a month, up slightly from last year, to continue fighting the counterinsurgency in Iraq, and around $800 million a month in Afghanistan. The funds will cover basic needs such as fuel, ammunition, spare parts, and soldier bonuses; help pay for the training of Iraqi and Afghan security forces; and be used to replace equipment that is being worn out in Iraq, the White House said.
The United States currently has about 150,000 troops in Iraq and about 19,000 in Afghanistan.
Joel Kaplan, deputy director of OMB, told reporters in a conference call that some of the increase could be attributed to expenses that were not taken into account in earlier estimates. ''The closer you get to the time at which you actually need to request money, the more reliable your estimate is likely to be," he said.
For example, the figure is higher than some anticipated partly because of the growing need to replace damaged equipment and replace weapons that have been heavily used in Iraq, Kaplan said.
''The longer we're there, the more we see additional wear and tear," Kaplan said. ''That's what you'd expect, particularly on some of the Army and Marine Corps equipment that dates from the late 1980s. You see it . . . coming to the end of its life cycle, expected life cycle, sooner than it otherwise would have, as a result of being employed in combat."
Other increases are the result of the new technologies and other tools to help thwart the roadside bombs that remain the biggest killer of American troops in Iraq. Kaplan did not provide a specific breakdown of the funding, saying that the final package is still being completed. It will be forwarded to Congress in about a week, he said, confirming only that $5 billion will be set aside to help pay for part of a longstanding plan to reequip certain Army units, some of which have been slated for duty in the Middle East. But the overall figures -- the separate requests for $70 billion for the rest of 2006 and $50 billion for 2007 -- will also be calculated in the White House's deficit projections when it separately releases its 2007 federal budget request on Monday, Kaplan said. The Congressional Budget Office said yesterday that it estimates the 2006 deficit will be at least $337 and may reach $400 billion or higher, depending partly on the cost of the Iraq War.
The new request comes on top of $50 billion the Congress gave the Bush administration in the annual defense budget passed in December to cover the first few months of the fiscal year. If approved, the total budget of $120 billion makes this year the costliest so far in terms of military operations since 2001.
Reconstruction of Iraq and Afghanistan continues to be funded separately, out of an $18.4 billion fund approved in 2004. Much of the money has not been spent due to the unstable security situation.
Meanwhile, the military costs, both direct and indirect, continue to climb. President Bush ''pledged that he will commit the resources that are necessary to fight and win the war on terrorism," Bryan Whitman, deputy assistant secretary of defense, said in the telephone briefing yesterday. ''A critical part of that is ensuring our troops in the field have all the resources they need."
As for the additional $50 billion to continue funding the wars in 2007, Kaplan said, ''It's a bridge fund, and when we get closer and we see how events over the next year have transpired in a very fluid situation -- fluid politically and on a security basis -- we'll be in a much better position to identify the costs."

Der Gouritz River (alternative Schreibweisen Gourits River, ) ist ein Fließgewässer in der südafrikanischen Provinz Western Cape. Mit seinen Nebenflüssen im Ober- und Mittellauf und einer Gesamtfläche von 53.139 Quadratkilometern verfügt er über das größte Einzugsgebiet aller Flüsse in dieser Provinz unter Einbeziehung kleinerer Randbereiche der Provinzen Northern Cape sowie Eastern Cape. Die Mündung des Flusses liegt am Indischen Ozean in einem etwa 10 Kilometer langen Ästuar südwestlich der Küstenstadt Mossel Bay. Die größte Wasserlaufplan im Einzugsgebiet wird mit 328 Kilometern angegeben.

Beschreibung

Für die Benennung eines Gewässerabschnittes mit diesem Namen gibt es verschiedene Auslegungen. Mit dem Zusammenfluss von Gamka River und Olifants River (Lage: ) südlich der Stadt Calitzdorp trägt ihr gemeinsamer Wasserlauf nach aktueller Auffassung den Namen Gouritz River. Nach anderen Darstellungen (Molter, 1966) wird der Name bereits südlich von Oudtshoorn (Lage: ) oder (Raper, 1987) am Zusammenfluss von Dwyka und Gamka River (Lage: ) verwendet.

Der Gamka River nimmt die von der Großen Randstufe kommenden Wasserläufe Dwyka Rivier und Leeuw Rivier auf.

Der von westlicher Seite zufließende Groot River entsteht aus der Vereinigung des von der Großen Randstufe kommenden Buffels River mit dem Touws River aus den nordöstlichen Hängen der Hex-River-Berge. Dessen Einmündung in den Gouritz River liegt noch vor dem Durchbruchstal in den Langeberg Mountains.

Aus dem östlichen Einzugsbereich kommt der Olifants River, der dem Gouritz River die größte Wassermenge zuführt. Seine Quellgebiete erstrecken sich bis auf das Territorium der Provinz Eastern Cape. Wichtigster Nebenfluss ist der Kammanassie River, unmittelbar südlich des Stadtgebietes von Oudtshoorn treffen beide Wasserläufe aufeinander. Der im östlichen Teil der Couga-Berge entspringende Kammanassie River ist besonders wasserreich und das ganzjährig. Sein Name leitet sich aus den Khoisansprachgebrauch ab und verweist auf ein "Wassergebirge". Nach diesen Gegebenheiten ist für den Gouritz River keine eigene Quellregion festgelegt.

Der Gouritz River ist mit seinen Hauptzuflüssen von einer besonderen Art der Wasserführung gekennzeichnet. Im Verlauf der oberen Zuflüsse (Leeuw, Gamka und Dwyka) im Gebiet der Großen Karoo gibt es eine periodische, zuweilen nur eine episodische Wasserführung. In den mittleren Abschnitten (Gamka River sowie Groot, Buffels und Touws River, im Osten Olifants- und Kammanassie River) im Gebiet der Kleinen Karoo sind die Pegel periodisch und in den küstennahen Gebieten des Unterlaufs ist die Wasserführung ganzjährig. Die beobachteten jüngeren Klimaveränderungen zeigen für das Territorium der Kleinen Karoo eine weitere Ausdifferenzierung der Niederschlagszyklen und des natürlichen Wasserhaushalts. Ansteigende Lufttemperaturen bewirken einen stärkeren Verdunstungsverlust, wodurch es zu einer teilweisen oder völligen Kompensation von vermehrten Sommerniederschlägen kommt. Es wird mit einer zunehmenden Zahl sprunghaft ansteigender Pegelstände gerechnet, die unberechenbare Überschwemmungen auslösen können.

Es werden vier Sub-Einzugsbereiche unterschieden: Gamka, Groot, Olifants und Gouritz. Im direkten Einzugsgebiet des Gouritz River existieren keine größeren Staudämme. Dagegen besitzen einige wichtige Nebenflüsse jeweils regional bedeutsame Stauanlagen. Die durchschnittliche Jahresniederschlagsmenge liegt zwischen 100 und 300 Millimeter, in der Küstenzone zwischen 400 und 500 mm.

Sein Mündungsbereich ist als ergiebiges Fischereigewässer bekannt. Als begehrte Art gilt der Japanische Königsfisch (Dusky Kob; Argyrosomus japonicus). Durch die Umweltschutzgesetzgebung ist das Fischen im Strom und von den Uferzonen inzwischen weitgehend verboten oder von limitierten Genehmigungsverfahren der Gemeinde und des Gouritz River Conservation Trust abhängig.

Mit seinen von Norden kommenden Nebengewässern durchquert der Gouritz River als einziger Fluss des Kaplandes drei wesentliche Landschaftszonen zwischen der Großen Randstufe und der Ozeanküste, die Große Karoo, die Kleine Karoo im Kapfaltengebirge und das Küstenland. Zudem haben sich einige Hauptzuflüsse (Gamka und Buffels River) durch die bis über 2000 Meter hohen Bergketten Durchbruchstäler gegraben, von denen einige als steile Schluchten eine bizarre Landschaft bilden. In einigen Zuflüssen sind die Schwebfrachtanteile im Wassers so angereichert, dass es zu einer störenden Belastung mit Schluffablagerungen in Stauanlagen kommt (Prins und Kammanassie River).

Hydrologie
Die Abflussmenge des Gouritz River wurde am Pegel Zeekoedrift, bei einem großen Teil des Einzugsgebietes, in m³/s gemessen. Der Fluss fließt sehr unregelmäßig. Er kann zu jeder Jahreszeit trocken fallen und hat im Verhältnis zu seinem Einzugsgebiet einen sehr geringen Abfluss. Allerdings kann er ebenso extreme Hochwasser haben, die sich in den Spitzen im Diagramm (unten) zeigen.

Name
Der Fluss wurde seit der Ankunft europäischer Seefahrer an der südafrikanischen Küste mit unterschiedlichen Namen belegt. Auf der Weltkarte von Henricus Martellus Germanus, die auf etwa 1492 datiert und dem Einfluss von Ptolemäus zugeschrieben wird, ist eine Eintragung mit der italienischen Bezeichnung Rio della Vache enthalten, die in portugiesischer Sprache Rio das Vaccas ("Fluss der Kühe") lautet. Eine weit akzeptierte Auffassung besagt, dass nach der Seereise von Bartolomeu Dias in der Kapregion der Fluss als Rio dos Vaqueiros ("Fluss der Kuhherden") bekannt war.

Nach Einschätzung des Historikers George McCall Theal sei es der VOC-Militär Hieronymus Cruse gewesen, welcher im Jahre 1667 oder 1668 nach einer Schiffsexpedition bis zur Mossel Bay auf dem Landwege wieder nach Kapstadt zurückkehrte und den heutigen Namen prägte. Dazu musste er den Fluss an einer geeigneten Stelle überqueren. Cruse traf in der Region auf Angehörige des Khoisan-Stammes Gouriqua, nach denen er den Flusslauf benannt haben soll. Charles Pettman, ein Erforscher von Namensfragen in Südafrika, interpretierte den Flussnamen als Khoisan-Wort für "unrein" oder "beschmutzt" ().

Nebenflüsse

Wassernutzung
Für landwirtschaftliche Zwecke sind in der Kleinen Karoo hauptsächlich nur die Uferterrassen dieser periodisch durch die Regenzeit wasserführenden Flüsse geeignet. Die Täler sind mit Schotter und Sand gefüllt. Außerhalb der Regenzeit sind hier Resttümpel vorhanden, die einen bestimmten Grundwasserstand signalisieren.

Mit Gründung der Breede-Gouritz Catchment Management Agency im Juli 2005 auf Basis des National Water Act (Act 36 of 1998) wurde die Nutzung der in diesem Einzugsgebiet liegenden Wasserreserven durch eine administrative Zusammenlegung der vormaligen Breede WMA und Gouritz WMA neu geregelt und im Mai 2014 auf das Gebiet Overberg ausgedehnt. Die Agentur hat die Aufgaben einer regionalen Wasserbehörde übertragen bekommen, die erforderliche Planung der Wasserressourcen vorzunehmen und ihre Nutzung zu kontrollieren. Zwei Verwaltungsstandorte werden in Worcester (Sitz der Direktion) und in George unterhalten.

Brücken und Verkehrswege
Für die Regionalstraße R327 wurde nordwestlich von Herbertsdale und wenige Kilometer unterhalb der Mündung des Groot River eine Brücke über den Fluss errichtet.

Westlich der Stadt Mossel Bay queren die von Kapstadt über Worcester kommende Eisenbahnstrecke (Bahnstrecke Worcester–Voorbaai) sowie die Nationalstraße N2 über einer Schlucht den Gouritz River. Dafür überspannen zwei in Nutzung befindliche Brücken den Flusslauf. Zwischen beiden Brückenbauten befindet sich eine weitere, alte und für den fahrenden Verkehr nicht mehr nutzbare Brücke, die hier das früheste Bauwerk bildet. Die Straßenbrücke ist ein Stahlbetonbauwerk aus dem Jahre 1978 mit zwei schräg angeordneten Doppelpfeilern und drei flach gewölbten Bogensegmenten.

Flussabwärts in Richtung seiner Mündung überquert eine Brücke den Flusslauf, die dem regionalen Verkehr zwischen kleinen Ortschaften in Küstennähe dient.

The Chelsea midfielder will be missing an opportunity to add to his tally the three times he has represented the Three Lions.

November 9, 2017 at 11:11 PM November 9, 2017 at 11:11 PM
Danny Drinkwater will be among the seven key English players who are set to miss the upcoming high profile friendlies. The Chelsea midfielder featured in his club's last weekend 1-0 victory over Manchester United. England manager Gareth Southgate confirmed to BBC Radio 5 Live that the combative midfielder is injured and cannot play. The manager further reiterated that he's not the kind of managers who risk players but he instead engages players in discussion to know how much risk his players are willing to take.
Danny Drinkwater joined Chelsea from Leicester City on the final day of the summer transfer of this season, but the thigh injury had kept him from featuring for his new club until when October was concluding.
Danny Drinkwater made his debut for Chelsea in the 2-1 victory over Everton in League Cup where he played for an hour before he was substituted with Cesc Fabregas.
Key friendly matches
After confirming the trip to 2018 World Cup in Russia, the Three Lions have arranged for two friendly matches in this international break. Gareth Southgate's men will be hosting the reigning world champions, Germany on Friday before making a long trip to Brazil in the coming Tuesday.
Apart from being the world champions, the Germans are also the Confederation Cup winners. The last time England met Germany, a section of English supporters were heard booing the German National Anthem and making chants relating to the World War Two. In fact, the conduct prompted the Football Association to hand two supporters lifetime bans for making anti-German gestures.
In a rejoinder to conduct of some England fans, Football Association chairman, Greg Clarke termed the event as "inappropriate, disrespectful, and disappointing." England manager Gareth Southgate has confirmed that both the German and English players will be wearing black armbands with poppies for the event.
Brazil will be destination English players will be gearing up for after the German test.
The Shamba boys hosted last summers World Cup in which Germany humiliated the hosts with the 7-1 demolition in the semi-finals. Brazil ended up losing 3-0 to the Netherlands in the third-place playoff to finish fourth in the tournament. However, Brazil remains the most decorated national side after winning a record five World Cup crowns.
It's clear that the Three Lions were only targeting top national sides as the European nation gets ready for next year's summer contest in Russia.
England has just managed to clinch World Cup once, and 1968 World champions have found recent World Cups hectic with the Three Lions being eliminated in the group stages in the last event.
Other English players missing
Danny Drinkwater has featured for England only on only three occasions with his debut in the national shirt coming against the Netherlands in 2016. It's in the England U19 where Drinkwater featured twelve times, but his only goal in English jersey came against Ghana in the 2-0 victory while representing England U18. However, the former Leicester City player was unfortunate after falling among the three players who were removed from the final selection team that represented England in the UEFA Euro 2016.
It's not only the Manchester United academy graduate who will be missing out as the Three Lions face the Germans.
Other players set to miss the game after pulling out with various injuries are Raheem Sterling, Fabian Delph, Jordan Henderson, Dele Alli, and Harry Winks. However, Tottenham Hotspurs manager Mauricio Pochetino confirmed that Harry Kane was well and would face Arsenal in the North London derby when the Premier League resumes.

Mozilla's new experimental Containers feature packs multiple browsers into a single Firebox installation.
The experimental Containers Firefox feature lets you, for example, simultaneously log in to Personal Twitter and Work Twitter accounts.
The current implementation of Containers enables separated personal, work, banking, and shopping contexts. Simultaneous logins are achieved by keeping the cookies and cache for each container separate, so that a site from the work container doesn't have access to data from the personal container.
The feature adds a second layer to the familiar tab concept. Users can still open a new generic tab, but they can also open a new "container tab" for each of the four profiles.
While potentially useful, the container tab concept runs the risk of being confusing, which is an issue that Mozilla's engineers acknowledge. Additionally, Containers won't progress to the Firefox Aurora 50 build.
As Vyas notes, the concept of contextual identities on the web isn't new, but it's been difficult to design the right user experience to enable it.
What if the user makes a mistake and uses the wrong context. Can the user recover?
Can the browser assist by automatically assigning websites to Containers so that users don't have to manage their identities by themselves?
Mozilla's answer to the first question is to use brightly-colored icons to the right of the URL bar, which indicate the context of a particular tab, as well as a corresponding strip of color on top of each tab. Personal is blue, Work is yellow, Banking is green, and Shopping is pink. The regular tab has no colour.
Vyas explains that Mozilla designed Container to "only segregate data that a site has access to, not data that the user has access to".
Cookies, localStorage, indexedDB, and cache are separate while items such as history, permissions, and saved passwords are shared between containers. That approach means if a user is in their Shopping container, they'll be able to see a site they visited from another container in History.
It should also mean that if they're browsing for goods online, they won't be tracked when they move to their personal or work container.
"By separating the data that a site has access to, rather than the data that a user has access to, Containers is able to offer a better experience than some of the alternatives users may be currently using to manage their identities," Vyas wrote.


Wrist arthrodesis (fusion) is currently used in patients whose radiocarpal joint has been damaged by trauma or arthritis, and where the patient has severe pain. Plate arthrodesis is used in patients with post traumatic or osteoarthritis, while pin arthodesis is used in rheumatoid patients.
Both techniques are a means to allow the bones to fuse at the radio-carpal, mid carpal and carpo-metacarpal joints. After this procedure no movement is possible at the wrist, while movement in the fingers is preserved.
The patient is usually discharged either day 1 or day 2 post op.

Call from "John Miller" claiming to be from Bank of America. When I call this number someone named "Roger" picks up. Same person picks up no matter what time you call. This is definitely a scam.
As of last week the person using this number is now Roy Washington from the "I.R.S." who will tell you you've won $350,000 and all you have to do to collect is pay the taxes. Yeah, right. Don't give any one using this phone number ANY information except directions straight to Hell.
I received a call from "John Miller," supposedly from Bank of America regarding a certified check. John's very American name was accompanied by a very thick Indian accent so I didn't catch the message. I called BOA and they indicated this is probably a phishing scam. I did not return "John's" call and I would advise anyone who gets a call from this number to ignore it.
Yes I did and I cursed them out. Some guy name john miller. They're scam artist.
Yea I did receive a call from Kimberly Brown of supposely Bank of America today...I do have a checking/savings with them but I'm confused because no one picks up the line in order to put in the extention. I'll assume its a scam of some sort.
Kimberly Brown calling from Bank of America they have a check for me I will need to call them at 716-200-1267 x406. I don't have any dealings with B of A anymore I think this is a scam. Has anyone else received calls like this from this Kimberly Brown?
These fools called again today, when I told him I had changed my number as well as my husbands (they called my moms phone) he told me I can try to remove myself from the situation but I must wait for the wrath he will unleash on me. When I told him I knew it was a scam as I have talked to the police he said "to hell with the police" he does have my bank account info (which I will be changing) My mom talked to them today pretending to be me and they told her I owe $527 and then $490( all in the same call) and when I talked to him he said I owe $802. Finally after screaming at him I told him he needed to go back to wherever he came from and that he doesn't deserve to be in America. SCAMMERS!!!
This is a criminal extortion ring operating out of India. ABC News released an investigative report on it in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/phantom-debt-co ... 16512428&page=1http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2012/08/bgm.shtmIt's a good idea to put fraud alerts on all three credit reports and notify your bank--just to be safe.
This company called me stating that I had taken a loan out from them that I did not repay back. They said I had taken a $500 loan out from them about 2-3 months back. I have NEVER taken a payday loan or quick cash loan out. The only loans I've taken out were student loans and, as I am still in college, I do not need to repay those back yet. These foreign people who claim they were from the State Attorney General's office told me that, if I go to court, I will end up paying over $2000. They had access to all my information (banking info., social security #, address, etc.). I am worried that I will soon be a victim of identity theft. I told them that they will never be able to prove their case as I can pull all my bank records for the past 2 years and show them that I have NEVER taken a loan out.
Getting tired of these scammers calling. The last guy said he was from the State Attornies Office and that I was involved in a lawsuit. I told him to send information to my lawyer and he called me an A***ole over and over again. Seriously if they are going to say they are from the state Attornies Office and you CAN'T understand them then shouts insanities at you and hangs up... Guess what America.. You just heard from a scammer!!!
ID says Directv. I am a customer & I do have the number blocked. No doubt an outsourced arm of Directv pushing the Starz movie package. Entirely believable that front line CSRs would be completely clueless as to their existence.
Just called, I didn't answer and promptly added number to my ever going block list.
calls from this number but no message left?
Unsolicited calls from this number. I do not answer.
just received a call from this number. didn't answer.. googled it right away and found the site. Thanks for all the info everyone!
even i am getting MISSED calls from this number now. already 3 times they have called in the last two days.
I just called Direct TV and they said it is an approved affiliate.
My caller ID also said Direct TV.I have also called Direct TV concerning this phone number, since I am a customer of theirs. The calls have accelerated by the day - I started with 1, then 2, then 4, and today I received 6 calls in a 3 hour period.Direct TV says this is NOT their company, and they have no association with this phone number, and it is indeed a major scam. Direct TV has logged this phone number and they are now actively investigating it. I have also turned the number in to the DNC registry complaint section. They are apparently also currently actively investigating whoever this is. A general google search is already reflecting that there have been numerous complaints filed against this phone number.
Yes they said they were Direct TV. They offered starz/encore for 12.99 plus check $25.BIG Scam!!
Yes they said they were Direct TV. They offered starz/encore for 12.99 plus check $25. I never gave them any info only that I confirm to receive the package. Well I called Direct Tv and they informed me there is no such package. Who are these people who called me. What they get out of calling and offering fake packages?

The bane of nearly every website owner or webmaster has to be the amount comment spam from spambots your awesome post receives as soon as it's published, and the shifting through of the bad stuff just to get to the good.
So, firstly you need to make the decision on whether enabling comments on your WordPress blog will be valuable to your website and its readership and if that is a big YES, then being prepared for spambots visiting and posting to your unprotected comments section is very much a given.
Ok so I hope I haven't scared you off opening your website comments section, but knowing there are drawbacks as well as positives is just as important as knowing how to combat your websites comment spam.
Don't get me wrong, comments on your blog posts, positive or negative, can create a sense of community and discussion you may not necessarily get elsewhere and can help increase site visits as part of your SEO campaign. I always recommend new site owners enable comments as a way to engage with their readership and help gain a broader view of the topic raised, but if your site is not protected then it brings the chance of potential comment spam by spambots engines.
Well if like me in years gone past you created a post that you wanted to engage with your viewers and encourage feedback but the thought of approving/disapproving comments meant you blocked all functionality well then worry no more.
Google reCAPTCHA is a free service that protects your website from spam and abuse. reCAPTCHA uses an advanced risk analysis engine and adaptive CAPTCHAs to keep automated software from engaging in abusive activities on your site. It does this while letting your valid users pass through with ease. So get yourself (if you haven't already) a Google account and enable this free service. For more information visit www.google.com/recaptcha/.
Now that you have enabled Google reCAPTCHA and have your Site and Secret Keys you'll need to install a plugin that will do all the work for you. Below are just some of the great plugins that will control access to your comments, along with your WordPress Login screen and contact forms.


It was a huge night in the Shire, with a crowd of over 20,000 witnessing a nail-biting NRL clash and half time entertainment unparalleled anywhere else in the NRL.
The Bulldogs are invited to Southern Cross Group Stadium very often, more by NRL draw-makers than the Sharks, but maybe that needs to change going forward.
The Sharks skipper was great, his team coming from behind to win for the fourth match in a row and while the Origin players were missed, the Cronulla side claimed the all-important two competition points.
What were the big moments in the match, the key points to come from a memorable night of rugby league excitement.
Sharks skipper Paul Gallen made the decision to step down from Origin duties at the end of last season to concentrate his efforts on club football.
The benefits of that decision certainly came to fruition last night against the Bulldogs.
Two huge plays in the back end of the game turned the tide in the Sharks favour and without him and without those two efforts it might have been the two points that got away.
Escaping the in-goal and denying the Dogs a repeat set was enormous, setting up the Beale try shortly after, then the run to put Townsend in clear space for the field goal just as crucial.
With four away at Origin Gallen was needed and he delivered. The big aside, he also managed to run for 240 metres on the night, easily the most by any player on the field as the captain delivered in spades.
While Gallen made his own call it was the Queenslanders who decided to leave incumbent Kangaroos winger Valentine Holmes out of their team for game one and again the Sharks were the beneficiaries.
Holmes continues to improve every week in the fullback role, his positional play, defense and kick returns a feature of another noteworthy performance.
After Gallen, Holmes was the next best for the winning team, his run off the back of the captains in-goal charge, then getting involved in the movement that sent Gerard Beale on his way for the Sharks try, key moments in the match.
He also brought the crowd to his feet when he produced a 'Thurston'. Similar to a famous run last year when he bowled over the Cowboys captain, Holmes fearlessly charged into Bulldog Moses M'Bye knocking him backwards in an inspirational effort.
Holmes's improvement in the fullback role continues, the sky is the limit and with Holmes just inking a new contract, that's exciting going forward.
With his partner in crime James Maloney watching on from Blues camp in Kingscliff, the responsibility for directing the Sharks around the field fell at the feet of Chad Townsend.
The field goal was one thing, calmly potted in the 78th minute to put the Sharks in front, but it was Townsend's overall kicking game that impressed.
The ball was repeatedly shifted to the right to Townsend for the last tackle kicks and more times than not the Sharks seven found the right option.
If only, coach Shane Flanagan might be saying, Townsend's teammates could have managed to take advantage of his attacking kicks a couple of tries would have resulted and the winning margin have been greater.
It was a good sign that Townsend was able to step up in Maloney's absence and another display of the development in the Sharks half.
Wherever coach Flanagan plays him, Gerard Beale gets the job done.
As a utility option he was coming off the bench during the 2016 Grand Final charge, playing whatever role was required.
This year he has played fullback in the absence of Valentine Holmes, on the wing and last night at centre, always doing a professional job.
Then last night with Jack Bird away, the big moment came to Beale and he didn't disappoint. Following some good lead up work from Gallen, then Holmes, Beale was passed the ball around the half way line with some time and space.
A left foot step took him past Bulldog five-eighth Matt Frawley, he pushed away from the inside cover and took off, showing enough speed to outdistance the defense in a 45-metre run to the line.
Usually in the background, quietly going about his business, it was Beale's time to shine.
5 Bulldogs, where have you been?
Last night was the first time since 2011, just the second occasion in the last 10 years that the Sharks had hosted the Bulldogs at their home ground.
Anomalies in the NRL draw has seen the two teams play just once each year since 2007 and those games for whatever reason have been somewhere else, primarily Bulldog home games, while the Sharks took one match to the Central Coast back in 2013.
But after last nights exciting night, the great roll up of Bulldog fans, when added to the Sharks faithful and 20,000 turned up to take in the spectacle.
Sure the Dance Spec, with 1,800 dancers performing at half time helped the crowd numbers, but any way you think about, during Origin week with seven star players missing, the attendance was outstanding.
Hopefully those responsible for putting together the NRL draw received the message loud and clear. More Sharks v Bulldogs games in the Shire we say.


The Chrome OS, which basically is one of the best thin client concepts yet to hit the market, has a lot of potential.
There are a number of thin clients on the market, and while this market continues to grow compared even to Apple's market share, it is tiny. The reason is that they aren't mobile and require a focus on network latency that PCs don't require. In addition, users like to have a certain level of control that they simply don't offer. Take an application like Tweet Deck that many of us have become wedded to. That application will not work in an environment like the one Google imagines because it runs locally and appears to function even if the network connection is spotty.
Most networks experience bottlenecks a number of times a day. The one I'm on is not only massively asymmetrical when it comes to speed, but it tends to have serious problems several times a week. Browsing slows to a crawl, but I can still get work done. When you add to this the problems of a world that is highly mobile and revisit why Apple backed away from Web-based applications after the launch of the iPhone, you'd realize that Chrome OS will initially only be viable in a few places like Korea, which have the needed infrastructure initially. And even there, you'd want to make sure you didn't overset expectations and kill the effort.
Companies have a nasty habit of not learning from history, looking at a world that only exists in their own minds and building solutions that won't stand up to reality. Chrome OS does anticipate a likely future in which computer services are entirely hosted. But we started from such a world and had it been that great, we'd likely still be there. There is a reason we went to PCs in the first place, and if Google doesn't find a way to take all we have learned in the past 40 years and blend the advantages of a hosted solution with the needs that originally created the PC market, Chrome OS will fail.
Google feels itself largely invulnerable (it's not as today's news seems to indicate) and that it doesn't need to follow the footsteps of aging companies that came before. We all exist in a veritable minefield of mistakes made by others, and by not at least looking at these mistakes, it's assured of eventually stepping on a mine. Right now, Chrome OS appears to be on that path.
Google has a year to fix this and it still could, but if it doesn't -- and most companies don't -- act, the future of this effort, which has massive potential, will be disappointing. Very disappointing.

Dustin Griffin's popular lecture Buxton: The History of West Main St. from Benjamin Simonds to Cole Porter was presented on Saturday, February 17 at Sweetwood of Williamstown. This short stretch of Main St., once known as the "Buxton District," is the site of the initial settlement of Williamstown, of two of the oldest surviving houses, and of the town's first cemetery. "Buxton Place" on West Main was for more than a hundred years the home of the Danforths, one of the town's leading families. "Buxton Hall" –demolished nearly 60 years ago –was once one of the town's grandest mansions, the summer home of the Lawrie family. And a big house called "Buxton Hill" was once the home of the town's most famous summer resident, Cole Porter.
For this talk Dusty drew heavily on the Museum's rich collection of photographs, especially of the Danforth Farm, the Lawrie Mansion, and the "Cole Porter House." Dusty considers his lectures to be "micro-histories," deep dives into narrowly-focused topics in local history. A collection of his essays on the history of Williamstown and Williams College will be published in the fall by the University of Massachusetts Press.


Bacon, Egg & Cheese Quesadillas Recipe ~ Crispy, Pan Fried Tortillas Stuffed with Bacon, Egg & Cheese! Makes the Perfect Quick, Easy Breakfast Recipe!
Let me bring you back to my Sunday morning this past weekend. The picture goes something like this. I'm in the kitchen (surprise!) and the hubby is lounging on the couch. As I'm making bacon egg muffins he asks with a sheepish grin, "Do you think you could make me a breakfast quesadillas also?" Sure, anything else I can do for you sir?
Quesadillas – Hubby is obsessed! We received a quesadilla maker for our wedding and he has not stopped making them since. I love it because when I have no other ideas for food I quick grab that and know he's going to be happy with whatever I put in there. It's basically a Sunday ritual to make quesadillas with whatever ingredient we have sitting around. I really want to try Artichoke and Spinach Dip quesadillas like you find at a restaurant next!
Ah it's all good. I love him dearly and I've only had a few days a week to treat him to home cooked meals so I better do it when I can. He'll be back after this week and things might change a little!
This isn't even hard enough to justify a recipe and sometime I think are people going to thing I'm pointing out the obvious? But these were so good and in case you wanted a recipe I thought I'd post one. They are super simple and quite tasty. It's a different twist on the plain old bacon and eggs. We have a handy quesadilla maker but you can make these in a frying pan also so don't let that stop you.
Crispy, Pan Fried Tortillas Stuffed with Bacon, Egg & Cheese! Makes the Perfect Quick, Easy Breakfast Recipe!
In a small bowl whisk together eggs and milk.
Pour eggs into a small skillet and scramble over low heat.
Remove eggs to small bowl and cover with tin foil.
In the same skillet put one of the burrito shells down. Top with scramble eggs, cheese and bacon bits. Place the other shell on top. Cook until the burrito on the bottom is golden brown then flip and cook until other side is golden brown..

One of the blogs I love to visit is Manuella over at The Pleasures of Homemaking. And this morning - she was INSPIRING to me!
I have an Inspiration Board. I love it. I have notes that my Mom wrote me pinned up on it, along with her watch, special brooches, special notes from my niece and good friends. Little hearts with my husband's and kid's names on them. Special fabrics and ribbons . . . just the normal stuff to get the juices flowing.
But I didn't have a "vision" board. I have pictures of things, lists of things I'd like to accomplish stuck away in a drawer or in a journal. After reading Manuella's post this morning, I decided now was as good of a time as any for this to be my next project. So I made one! Out of materials I had on hand. No purchases necessary. I knew it didn't need to be really thick and strong as I will probably only put pictures and article clippings on it. Now I know I probably didn't do it the right way - but really fast, this is what I did.
Took just an average piece of foam board. I stocked up on these when they went on sale 5 for $5 at Michael's. Good thing!
Added some batting. Just stapled it on.
the perfect piece left over from the table skirts!
Staple it on, folding the corners. I knew my board was 20" x 30" so figuring out where to place the ribbon was easy.
Added some pretty rhinestone buttons for some bling and . . .
VOILA! My new vision board.
Ok, now . .. vision . . . hmmm ... need some some vision here . . . so head over to my trusty Cricut machine.
If you've never seen one of these babies, it's a doozy. Picked out my font . . .
picked out my paper and cut it to size . . .
loaded it in the machine . . .
look at that blade cut. It's just so easy!
Peel off the letters . . .
Ok, pick out a piece of background paper to mount it on . . .
VOILA! One of my favorite words. "Believe"
Here we go! All done.
Thank you Manuella for reminding me of the importance of being an optimist - of being positive, not negative - of seeing the glass 1/2 full, not 1/2 empty - of living the life Christ gave us and making it a wonderful journey filled with Him, and wonderful people we love and experiences we will remember always. And thanking Him each and every day for just one more day.
Have a good day everyone! Now I really need to get to the market!
Karen, love your inspiration board. I'm thinking I may need one of those Cricut machines myself. Do you really think they are worth the money? Do you frequently use it? For what types of projects? Does it come with several fonts or do you have to purchase them? I don't know much about them except that EVERYONE seems to have one.
I was reading your profile and see we have a lot in common. I'll be married for 28 years in May. We have a 21 year old and a (almost) 15 year old. I'm also a stay-at-home Christian mom!
Love your inspiration board, now I want a cricut. I would love to be able to cut letters to make little signs and such.
Thank you for thinking of me for the award, your too sweet.
I really like your inspiration board....how pretty. You do such pretty work and I like all the colors you are using.
I love how your inspiration board turned out.
I've wondered about the cricut machines, how they worked. It looks pretty neat.
I am glad you changed the word verification so now I can leave you a comment. lol.
Oh, I want a cricut! I recently used a friend's machine here. It's fabulous. I'm not purchasing any new 'electricals' until we're back in the US but this is on my wish list.
Love your board too...I have the file thing which isn't nearly as practical.
That came out so good! Love it! I'm going to link to this post on Friday if you don't mind. I like that you used what was on hand maybe we'll inspire others to make one too!
I love it! Love the Cricut, too, I've been toying with the idea as to whether I should get one or not...I'm thinking I should...LOL.
Oh man I love it! Its beautiful!
You did a beautiful job. I also like your other board that you have special things on. That's a great idea too.


Yes, it's true. I've started reading Ranier Maria Rilke. The library withdrew an old copy of the Duinesian Elegies with German text and translation with commentary. I am thrilled to find out that I still know SOME German from high school.
I'm taking it the slow route, even though my immediate reaction is to plow right through it. I trip that way.
Right now I'm listening to the wisdom of Lauryn Hill through headphones and thinking about what these next few years hold for me. I'm not sure what sort of career I want. I'd like to leave and move somewhere else, but I am ever afraid that I don't know how. Well, I DON'T know how. There's a lot of things about life that I don't know.
Then again, this could be true of everyone. You can learn through experience, but I keep expecting some book to land in my lap, the answer to all my questions.
I am consumed by my self-doubt. And this whole time, I know it. I am quite self-aware, yes. I am. I usually know how stupid I am, if not in that moment, moments later. So gifted am I in self-consiousness that my life is filled with regret.
Tomorrow is Sunday. Outside of self day.
Here is an obligatory update. I've been enjoying my vacation very much, and I dread the start of another semester, but I know the kind of stability it can bring.
Hopefully, this year I can keep from drifting.

OCO CELEBRATES THE UNSUNG HEROINES IN THE FRONT LINES PR03/21
Suva, Fiji, 04 March 2021– Oceania Customs Organisation Chairperson, Mr. Salvador Jacob says the Pacific Islands States have benefited enormously from the contribution of women in Customs administrations, who like their male counterparts, are the unsung heroines in their front lines.
"On this 2021 International Day of Women, the OCO and its members pay tribute to all women, and in particular those working in our Customs administrations who are part of the regional effort to keep our borders free of the coronavirus", Mr. Jacob says. "Of the 14 countries that are still COVID-19 free, 11 are in the Pacific. Our Customs officers are at risk daily when processing incoming travelers and boarding ships that are bringing in cargo and we applaud them for their dedication and hard work at our borders."
Mr. Jacob adds that most countries in the Pacific are fortunate to continue living relatively normal lives, as before the pandemic, with no restrictions in movement or large gatherings.
"Time has stood still in the Pacific- we may have experienced the economic shocks of the pandemic, but other than that, we have shops, schools, and offices open, and most importantly we can still meet and greet the Pacific way with hugs, kisses and handshakes, without fear of contracting the virus. This is possible because of effective Customs work, some of which is led by women," Mr. Jacob said.
OCO is releasing a series, Pacific Women in Customs, which is a collection of stories of women nominated by their Customs administrations as part of its celebration of International Women's Day.
"International Women's Day is celebrated on March 8th, but we have chosen to dedicate the month of March to women in Customs," OCO Head of Secretariat, Mr. Richard Brennan said. "It is part of our efforts to promote gender equality in what is a male-dominated industry and also in recognition of the UN Women theme for International Women's Day, which is "Women in leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world."
One of the women featured in the Pacific Women in Customs series is Mrs. Matafeo Avalisa Viali-Fautua'alii, Chief Executive Officer of the Ministry of Revenue and Customs in Samoa and is one of three female heads of Customs in the OCO member countries.
Matafeo Avalisa Viali Fautua'alii, Chief Executive Officer, Samoa Ministry of Customs & Revenue
"All Customs officers must be applauded for their work in keeping our borders safe," Mrs. Viali-Fautua'alii said. "In many countries, COVID-19 has increased the workload of Customs officers who have also become quarantine officers to ensure incoming travelers are quarantined until they are proven to be free of the virus and allowed into communities. And we especially applaud our women, who have risen up to the challenge and stood by their male colleagues as equal counterparts responding to the call of duty of their nations." The Pacific Women in Customs series starts on 8 March and can be read on the OCO website www.ocosec.org
In 2019, the OCO held its inaugural Change Management on Gender Equality workshop, which suggested there should be gender equality in all aspects of OCO's work program. This suggestion was endorsed at the 2020 OCO Annual Conference. In 2020, OCO member countries were encouraged to celebrate International Women's Day in their own administrations and to share their activities widely.
"I urge Pacific Islanders to remember and spare a thought for that grandmother, mother, daughter, sister, cousin who is working hard to keep our borders safe. Happy International Women's Day," Mr. Brennan urged.
For more information or for any queries, please contact the Secretariat or email: mediaoco@ocosec.org

Q: Make form function accessible to all forms I have this function on Form1, and I want to use the same function for Form2, Form3 and so on, instead of duplicate the function on each Form is there any way to make it accessible for all? I've tried to make a new Class : Form and then call the function from the forms, but not working...
public void tb_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if ((sender as TextBox).Text.Count() < (sender as TextBox).MaxLength)
        (sender as TextBox).Text = (sender as TextBox).Text.PadLeft((sender as TextBox).MaxLength, '0');
}

UPDATE
Thank you for your answers, they work fine, but what if I want to use the same method for X textboxes? (Like I was doing with the tb_Leave function)
I mean, with my old method I just select X textboxes and send the leave event to my function, the way you mention I need to create a method to call another method within a helper class... But I still need to create a method inside every form, to call that class, am I right? Although, your answers are very helpful actually as I only need to create a new .cs file with all my helper classes :)
UPDATE 2
I'm having problems migrating this method
public static void TextBoxKeyDown(this TextBox tb, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        switch (e.KeyCode)
        {
            case Keys.Enter:
            case Keys.Add:
                e.SuppressKeyPress = true;
                processTabKey(true);
                break;
            case Keys.Decimal:
                if (tb.Tag == "importe")
                {
                    e.SuppressKeyPress = true;
                    processTabKey(true);
                }
                break;
            case Keys.Subtract:
                e.SuppressKeyPress = true;
                processTabKey(false);
                break;
        }
    }

Of course I know processTabKey(); will only work on the active form, but how to make it working outside de Form class?

A: This is a really simplified version of your code.
To create a method for reuse everywhere create a new Utility.cs file containing a simple static class
namespace MyApp.Utilities
{
    public static class MyUtility
    {
        public static void PadForTextBox(TextBox tb)
        {
            if (tb.Text.Length < tb.MaxLength)
                tb.Text = tb.Text.PadLeft(tb.MaxLength, '0');
        }
    }
}

Now you could call this method from every form that has a reference to the namespace where you define the class.
public void tb_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Utility.PadForTextBox(sender as TextBox);
}

Another elegant method  to achieve the same result is through an extension method for the TextBox
namespace MyApp.Utilities
{
    public static class TextBoxExtensions
    {
        public static void PadForTextBox(this TextBox tb)
        {
            if (tb.Text.Length < tb.MaxLength)
                tb.Text = tb.Text.PadLeft(tb.MaxLength, '0');
        }
    }
}

and call it with
public void tb_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    (sender as TextBox).PadForTextBox();
}

By the way, using these methods allow you to get rid also of that ugly sequence of casts.
Of course your tb_Leave method is an event handler and as that it should be linked to the textboxes.
If you want to have a textbox event handler common for every textboxes in you apps indipendently from the form in which the textboxes are created, then you cannot rely on the WinForm Designer, but you need to add manually the event handler to your textboxes in the form constructor just after the InitializeComponent call. All in all I prefer to leave this task to the designer and add the single line above when needed.
For example:
InitializeComponent();
// connect the leave event for 3 textboxes to the same static method inside the
// MyUtility static class
textBox1.Leave+=MyUtility.PadEventForTextBox;
textBox2.Leave+=MyUtility.PadEventForTextBox;
textBox3.Leave+=MyUtility.PadEventForTextBox;

.....

public static void PadEventForTextBox(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    TextBox tb=sender as TextBox;
    if (tb.Text.Length<tb.MaxLength)
        tb.Text=tb.Text.PadLeft(tb.MaxLength, '0');
}

A: Create a new helper static class like :
using System;
        using System.Collections.Generic;
        using System.Linq;
        using System.Text;
        using System.Windows.Forms;

public class HelperClass
{
    public static void LeaveMethos(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if ((sender as TextBox).Text.Count() < (sender as TextBox).MaxLength)
            (sender as TextBox).Text = (sender as TextBox).Text.PadLeft((sender as TextBox).MaxLength, '0');
    }
}

and in your Leave Event for textbox just call it :
HelperClass.LeaveMethos(sender, e);

A: Have a Helpers.cs file (or whatever you like), and make a Helper method, such as this:
Yournamespace.Helpers
{
    public string GetTextBoxText(TextBox sender)
    {
        if (sender.Text.Count() < sender.MaxLength)
        return sender.Text.PadLeft(sender.MaxLength, '0');
    }
}

Then simply include the namespace in your form and use this:
public void tb_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   TextBox textBox = sender as TextBox
   textBox.Text = GetTextBoxText(textBox);
}

2022 Free Agent Forecast: Offensive Line
The new NFL year begins Wednesday, March 16, and with it, the advent of 2022's free agent marketplace. Leading up to that first day, we'll examine the landscape from a Patriots perspective, continuing with the offensive line.

CORNERBACKS
PATRIOTS FREE AGENTS
Ted Karras (starting LG), Trent Brown (starting RT)
OTHER NOTABLE NFL FREE AGENTS
Terron Armstead (NO), Orlando Brown Jr. (KC), Duane Brown (SEA), Eric Fisher (IND), Morgan Moses (NYJ), Riley Reiff (CIN)
POSSIBLE PATRIOTS
Morgan Moses
Karras and Brown were both starters and represent significant decisions for the team to make, ones that are likely tied to where Michael Onwenu ends up long-term. Onwenu started 2021 at left guard before the team settled in with Karras at that spot, with Onwenu serving as the swing back up tackle. Onwenu has potential at right tackle as well.
Still, it's easy to see the Patriots retaining both Karras and Brown, who are well versed in how New England does things and both seem to embrace the culture there. Both offer versatility, with Karras covering all three interior line positions and Brown able to flip flop between right and left tackle, even if 2018's stint at left tackle was a career outlier for the monstrous player.
Isaiah Wynn enters his final season as well so the long-term questions at tackle are only just beginning and they'll need a plan both in free agency and the draft to secure the edges of the protection for the future.
The lower levels of offensive depth have been slowly stacking experience, with Justin Herron getting four starts in 2021 after getting six in 2020. Yasir Durant started one game, while Yodny Cajuste got two in 2021 after spending the first two seasons of his career on Injured Reserve. 2020 sixth-round pick Will Sherman spent most of the year on the practice squad but did get called up for one game.
After Onwenu, who should project to a starting role in 2022, it's unclear what the long-range trajectory is for the depth pieces.
On one hand, a return of the entire 2021 line doesn't seem out of the question, but on the other, the team has some long-term questions that are more likely to be addressed in the draft rather than free agency. If Karras and Brown head elsewhere, things could change dramatically and put one of the external free agents in play.

Rejoinder: Before Oyo Dives into Financial Collapse
By Olamide Olorundare
When I learnt that Mr Seun Onigbinde wrote an article addressing the issue of loans taken by Oyo State, I was happy. I was glad because I believed the numbers guy from Ogbomoso, in Oyo State; a professional who crunches numbers for a living, would correct all the disinformation that has been going on regarding loans taken by Oyo State and this decision by the Oyo State Executive Council to back the issuance of a private company bond for the execution of priority projects. Unlike him, I make no claims to non-partisanship but I know that even the most analytical minds can get it wrong. For it is one thing to have access to the numbers, it is quite another to interpret them correctly and in the right context without any personal bias. Seun Onigbinde got it wrong this time.
Oyo State is in a conundrum. Seun Onigbinde himself explains it this way: "Oyo State's revenue in 2018 was around N137bn, with also a recurrent expenditure as N107bn, that means that the state had only N30bn without borrowing for capital expenditure that year." I do not know why he chose to use 2018 figures to show how bad things are. Governor Seyi Makinde does not even have the luxury of N30 billion a year. In the last one year since he took over office, he has consistently made Oyo State's earnings public. Oyo State gets about N4.5 billion in Federal Allocations and just over N2 billion in Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) which amounts to about N6.7 billion/month. At the same time, salaries accrue to over N6.2 billion a month. What this means is that Oyo State has just about N500 million/month or N6 billion a year for infrastructural projects. The difference is not even enough to pay for the Moniya-Iseyin road awarded at N9.9 billion.
From this analysis, it is clear that if Oyo State wants to make any progress in the short and long run, we must get the money for capital projects somewhere else. In fairness, Mr Onigbinde does not have a grouse with loans. He is just afraid that Oyo State is borrowing too much and may not be able to pay. He asks, "Is there anything in Oyo state's borrowing plan that is either self-liquidating or tied to IGR growth in a concise manner?" If he had thought his question through, he would have known that he provided the answer himself. He wrote, "the National Bureau of Statistics records that the state [Oyo] has the highest level of consumption in Nigeria after Lagos state?" Oyo State has the population and the people have the spending power to support investments. If he is doubt, he may want to ask Safeboda who pulled out from Lagos how their investment is doing in Oyo.
Indeed, the BudgIT boss would have been excused if all he did was ask questions, but I think it's a tad insulting to the collective intelligence of the people of Oyo State for him to position himself on this seat of ignorance and at the same time, accuse the entire state apparatus of going on "endless debt binges" and trying to plunge Oyo State into "fiscal ruin." For the avoidance of doubt, His Excellency has always made it clear that every loan he is taking is both self-liquidating, that is, the projects will pay for themselves or are directly tied to the growth of IGR. In fact, during the signing of the revised budget, he said that the projects had the capacity in the short term to grow the state's IGR by one billion a month and that whoever wanted further details should approach the authorities for same.
Had Mr Onigbinde approached the authorities for clarification or read the various releases and statements made available through Governor Seyi Makinde and Oyo State Government officials, he would have known better than to categorise the 'Oyo State Prosperity Bond,' a proposed private company bond as a government loan or a debt.
https://twitter.com/iamakinolaojo/status/1288052254726119424?s=20
His advice in his writeup shows he is ignorant about what is happening in the state. For example, how do you explain this advice: "the fundamental tasks for Oyo state are to position itself as an investment vehicle for talent and enterprise. Ideas such as the Akufo farm settlement are good and should be scaled. There is a need to look into the Oke-Ogun area with its huge agrarian culture and also the marble industry around Igbeti area?"
The driving force behind Governor Seyi Makinde's Roadmap to Accelerated Development in Oyo State 2019-2023 has always been to position Oyo State as the number one destination for foreign and local investment in Nigeria. Is Mr Onigbinde unaware that His Excellency was in Tampa, Florida just before the outbreak of COVID-19 to woo investors? In his well-publicised pitch to investors, he said "We are planning our farm estates in nine locations scattered around Oyo State. The first two are set to kick off soon at Akufo and Eruwa." These pilot farm estates will be built using the N7.6 billion repurposed loan originally taken by the last administration for the purchase of "farm equipment".
Is Mr Onigbinde also unaware of the newly created Oyo State Agribusiness Development Agency (OYSADA) that replaces the former Oyo State Agriculture Development Programme (OYSADEP)? Is he unaware that the moribund OYSADEP headquarters in Oke-Ogun is currently being rehabilitated to serve as the headquarters of agribusiness in Oyo State? Has he not heard of the Oyo State Youth in Agribusiness Tomatoes Project targeted at youths in three zones including Tede in Oke-Ogun? Is he totally oblivious of the fact that Governor Makinde inaugurated the board of the Nigerian Marble Mining Company Limited, Igbeti on June 5, 2020? https://twitter.com/seyiamakinde/status/1268944133068132354?s=20 Did he miss the news that investors are already showing interest in the marble industry in Igbeti and that it will spring back to life within the next few months?
Seun Onigbinde also suggested the government should "apply progression with immense efficiency prioritising the infrastructure that does two things; first, brings ease to people on development and social angles and second, expands Oyo state's revenue profile in the near term." What really does he think the 22.5 Billion Naira infrastructural loan is for?
I chuckled when I read his suggestion that "Ajia-Amuloko Road can be funded in a three-year cycle through the budget process." Does Mr Onigbinde really believe that the people of Oyo State, who have been infrastructurally disadvantaged for decades, will sit around and clap for His Excellency while he takes three years to build a 21kms road? How would this "bring ease to people on development"? Does he know how much people complained over the Idi-Ape–Akobo Ojurin Road project which contract was recently revoked due to non-performance?
What people like Seun Onigbinde fail to understand is the magnitude of infrastructural deficit in Oyo State. When he writes "that roads, bridges, schools and hospitals are begging for attention," all he probably has is an intellectual understanding of the problem. What TrackaNG monitors in Oyo State is just a tiny tip of the iceberg. I invite him to visit the Board Chairman, Oyo State Community and Social Development Agency (OYCSDA), Dr Idowu Oyeleke, and let him show him some of the projects they have completed in the past year. One of the projects involves a school that was built under the Late Chief Bola Ige's administration forty years ago and has fallen into disrepair since. Would this school have made Mr Onigbinde's list of projects to be sponsored with "self-liquidating loans" or would it have needed to wait for another "budget cycle"?
What practical solutions does Mr Onigbinde provide for solving the problem of infrastructural deficits in Oyo State? Did he really write that Oyo State's plans should be woven around building an industrial base that taps into its proximity and economy of Lagos? Then, he should hear Governor Makinde on this, "Oyo State is strategically located. The largest seaport in Nigeria is just about one hundred kilometres away. With the completion of the Lagos-Ibadan Standard Gauge Railway, your materials can land at the Lagos Apapa Port and be cleared at the Ibadan Inland Dry Port just about two hours later."
He asked, "What is Oyo state's plan to leverage the ongoing Lagos-Ibadan rail project when it's done? How will the state plug its resources into this infrastructure to accelerate its IGR growth?" Pray, why does he think the Ibadan Dry Port and rail corridor were named among the priority projects to be covered under the proposed N100 Billion Private Company Bond?
Indeed, I find it laughable that Mr Onigbinde wants Oyo State to leverage on "its connections to the globe through the ports," but gives no suggestion as to how this can be done. This is why he should have asked the people who are working day and night to see that Oyo State is put on the path of prosperity. His statement that "the state has no business using debt to upgrade an airport that only lands two planes per day," shows that Mr Onigbinde either has no idea how private bonds work or has chosen to be unaware.
Let me put it this way; there is nothing in Mr Onigbinde's entire write up that has not been considered or done already in Oyo State. I will advise him to take out time to get informed on the happenings in the state he claims to love so much. Or how do I explain that he was questioning the "pedigree of the contractor" who is handling the Airport-Ajia-New Ife Express Road based on the fact that they do "not have any strong online presence or perennial record for such stretch of road." For a person that deals with figures, Mr Onigbinde does not seem to do a lot of research. A cursory search on Twitter would have shown that this company has worked with Akwa-Ibom State, Osun State and even Edo State. And even if the company were green-horns, they are executing the project with their own money under the Alternate Project Funding Approach and will be paid over 29 months. Has Mr Onigbinde cared to find out the details of this arrangement?
Let me assure him that Governor Seyi Makinde has looked around him and he has learnt: The only way to take Oyo State out of the league of states with extremely low IGR is through massive investment in infrastructure. He is not borrowing simply because he can. He is not borrowing because he is a "moth that wants to pretend to be a bird." He has assured the good people of Oyo State that every single loan taken by his administration will be paid before he leaves office. When you break down these loans you will see that N32.5 billion was taken by His Excellency's administration while N7.6 billion taken by the previous administration was repurposed. He is already repaying parts of these loans even though the projects are just beginning.
This is 2020. Oyo State cannot proceed as if there is no urgent need for development. Of course, caution is necessary, but we cannot be held back by the same lack of ambitious thought that made us bring in "N26bn annually" in IGR when neighbouring states are making three, four and even ten times that amount. Oyo State has taken a bold step in backing the N100 billion private company bond which does not add to our debt profile. In the words of Governor Seyi Makinde, "Our administration means business. We will drastically reduce the infrastructure deficit in Oyo State in the shortest possible time. And this is how economies work: Investors will only go where they can be assured of profits."

Jenna Bush Hager Inspires Volunteerism at White Plains Hospital Luncheon
Thursday, 06 June 2019 11:04
Last Updated: Thursday, 06 June 2019 14:13
Joanne Wallenstein
Susan Fox, Jenna Bush, Kathy Winterroll, Susan YubasYou only need to drive a few feet north of Scarsdale on the Post Road to see that big changes are afoot at White Plains Hospital. As part of their transformation from a community hospital to a major medical destination, the hospital recently broke ground on a new 252,000 square foot center for advanced medicine and surgery.
Though it's all in virtual reality for now, this new center will include equipment and staff to perform many procedures that previously sent patients farther afield. Some of these services include advanced imaging, ambulatory surgery, endoscopy, high risk maternal-fetal medicine, orthopedics and spine care, heart and vascular medicine, surgical services, and hyperbaric wound care.
Anna Cappucci, Wendy Berk, Kathy Winterroll, Susan Fox, Carrie Bank, Eileen Meyers, Kathy SherbalSome of this new construction has been underwritten by generous donors who were celebrated at the Friends of White Plains Hospital Spring Luncheon on Tuesday, June 4 at Willow Ridge Country Club. In addition to seeing friends and learning more about plans for the hospital, the audience was treated to an appearance by Jenna Bush Hager, who is now a co-host of the Today Show.
Lisa Singer, Dara Gruenberg, Jenna Bush, Stacey Philips, Lisa GansHospital President and CEO Susan Fox opened the event and welcomed Board Members Kathy Winterroll and Wendy Berk, who head the Friends of White Plains Hospital. On behalf of the Friends, they presented a check for $1.6 million, their largest ever donation to the hospital. They also granted scholarships to four graduating high school students who spent hundreds of hours volunteering at the hospital. Anne Edwards was grant the first annual ripple award for her decades of service.
Jenna Bush, who is well into the pregnancy of her third child came to the podium and declined a chair – though it must have been tough to stand. She was poised, charming and engaging, and spoke to the sold out room of over 300 women as if they were all her best friends.
Pam Jahmarkt, Sharon Seibold, Ali Gordon, Amy Hirshhorn, Jenna Bush, Patricia Dweck, Vanessa Mandel, Dayna NovensteinShe shared stories about the lives of her two grandmothers, who both passed away recently, just after the publication of Jenna and Barbara's book, "Sisters First." She called her grandmother Barbara Bush, "the enforcer," and said that her "Ganny" passed away with courage and grace and even had the chance to listen to her own eulogy before she died.
Bush said that both of her grandmothers passed down the legacy of service and giving back from generation to generation. Jenna inherited the desire to help others and spent several years teaching in inner city schools and travelled to Latin America to help HIV infected mothers and children.
She laughed when she said, I could never imagine that I would end up working in the media, after they reported to the world that I had "gained the freshman 15." (pounds that is.)
It was a delightful event for a good cause and the good feelings generated in the room will undoubtedly create ripples in the years to come.
