James Collinson is currently studying at our London campus and is on the third year of our Electronic Music Production & DJ Practice degree course, delivered in association with The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan).
Not content with producing music and performing DJ and live sets across London, James has also recently launched his own Enthalpy Records label which has just dropped it's first two official releases, one of which features tracks from fellow SSR London student GODD4RD.
Here we catch-up with James to find out more about his experiences studying at SSR London, his career so far and his plans for the future.
How/why did you start DJing?
"I moved myself back to London mid summer, 2013 as I had decided I wanted to become a professional DJ. I purchased Traktor and an S4 Kontrol and began mixing tracks I truly enjoyed at home. I was working in bars and speaking to different DJs, trying to find out how to get into the industry, most the answers I received were along the lines of "just put yourself out there and do it", so that's what I did. Plucked up the courage to book my first gig and went for it. It's only the past year whilst studying at SSR have I really taken my DJing to the next level. Not being satisfied playing mine or other peoples music through CDJs or Controllers I have decided to switch to a hardware based set up where I have more freedom and can fully manipulate and create my music completely live!"
Are you producing as well? How long have you been doing that, and what genres do you like?
"I am producing, yes. I started producing (composing) even at school writing music on my guitar or the piano before going to college and learning jazz and classical music where I gained a great compositional grounding. I moved on to produce Hip-Hop a few years ago, then moved on to Drum and Bass, then Pop, now House and Techno."
"I just spoke to as many musically focused and like minded people as I could. Working in a bar in Camden helped me a lot and attending SSR."
How was your year in 2015?
"My year 2015 was good for me, I played at Ministry of Sound, Proud (Camden) and XOYO. I launched my record label (Enthalpy Records) at the end of 2015 / beginning of 2016. We had our launch party in Eclipse, South Kensington. We than held a club night at Thirst, Soho. At the moment I am working on booking a roof terrace for our 'End of University / Start of Summer' party! My label has it's first official releases scheduled for 10th March and the 27th March, one of which is GODD4RD (a student currently studying at SSR)"
How are you finding your course at SSR?
"I am in the 3rd year on the Electronic Music and DJ Practice (BA Hons) degree. I have found the facilities great at SSR and once you show you are capable to use the equipment you get to use the stuff as much as you like. Without SSR I wouldn't of had an opportunity to learn how to use all the different hardware I currently use in my DJ performances (Roland Aira equipment, Modular Synthesizers, Drum machines, etc.). I am currently mastering my mixes for myself and my label on the Neve console with Edson M (with help from Daniel Westley) who also study on the music production degree."
Any advice for aspiring DJs who want to start making a name for themselves?
"1 - Join SSR and get on a course, you truly get as many opportunities as you can get involved in, it's constantly growing and secure different links within the industry.
2 - Get raving! Get out there, speak with guys who work at events, get to know bar staff, bar managers, promoters."
"Just quit a residency so...... Free for bookings! Looking for a new DJ resident on the decks? I can play most genres! Also looking to take my hardware performances to a club scene! Email my label with a header 'PERSONAL BOOKING' to EnthalpyRecordsInfo@gmail.com"
Big thanks to James for answering our questions. We're looking forward to hearing about what he does next and would like to wish him every success with the record label. Nice one James!

La diocesi di Partenia (in latino: Dioecesis Partheniensis) è una sede soppressa e sede titolare della Chiesa cattolica.

Storia
Partenia, nell'odierna Algeria, è un'antica sede episcopale della provincia romana della Mauritania Sitifense.

Unico vescovo conosciuto di questa diocesi africana è Rogato, il cui nome appare al 32º posto nella lista dei vescovi della Mauritania Sitifense convocati a Cartagine dal re vandalo Unerico nel 484; Rogato, come tutti gli altri vescovi cattolici africani, fu condannato all'esilio.

Dal 1933 Partenia è annoverata tra le sedi vescovili titolari della Chiesa cattolica; dal 13 gennaio 1995 il vescovo titolare è Jacques Jean Edmond Georges Gaillot, già vescovo di Évreux.

Are you facing foreclosure? Did you know that an estimated 240,000 borrowers with adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) can avoid foreclosure FHA mortgage refinancing using the new FHASecure plan?
"Many hard-working American families who were able to make their mortgage payments under the initial teaser terms of the exotic loan are now struggling to make ends meet because their rates have doubled or tripled," said HUD Secretary Alphonso Jackson. "The FHA Secure will bring stability to the housing market and give eligible families who were in good financial standing before their loans reset a chance to keep their homes." FHA released new refinance loans for consumers who were not late on the mortgage payment prior to rate adjusting. One of them is FHASecure a mortgage created to offer a fixed rate refinance solution to homeowners who are trapped with an ARM.
FHASecure is "a temporary program designed to provide refinancing opportunities to homeowners" who "may refinance mortgages that, due to the increased mortgage payment following the reset, have become delinquent". However, HUD warns that: "FHA reserves the right to reject for insurance those mortgage applications where it appears that a loan officer or other mortgagee employee suggested that the homeowners could not stop making their payments, refinance into a FHA insured mortgage..."
Borrowers who were late on three monthly mortgage payments, either consecutively or three times in the previous 12 months. A loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of 90% is required.
The FHA Secure plan helps more than single family home owners. They also help owners of manufactured. The manufactured home needs to be on a permanent foundation and meet HUD's guidelines to qualify. And, FHA refinancing also makes considerable allowances for owner-occupied 2-4 unit properties. 1-2 unit properties allow for a cash-out refinance of up to 95% of the properties appraised value, and 3-4 unit properties can cash-out of to 85% of their appraised value. FHA refinancing can be even done on a property with deferred maintenance or in the middle of getting work done through an FHA 203K or FHA Streamline K refinance. Most conventional loans will not loan on a property that is "subject to" repairs being completed.
FHASecure allows no cash back because it's specifically for foreclosure prevention. But, there are no prepayment penalties. And qualifying for the new FHA Secure mortgage isn't as hard as it is to qualify for most conventional loan. Your credit report can even have a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy discharged just 2 years ago, with acceptable re-established credit. Chapter 13 Bankruptcies do not have to be discharged at all to qualify for FHA financing, as long as a 1 year satisfactory trustee payment and mortgage payment have been made. Refinance your ARM and save. Complete the free loan evaluation on this page to see if you qualify for fixed rate FHA refinancing under FHASecure.

Q: If $B$ Borel measurable, $x \in \mathbb{R}$, then $B + \{x\}$ Borel measurable I imagine that this is pretty obvious, but I'm missing something. It's part of a larger proof to show that if $B$ Borel, $A$ countable, then $B+A$ Borel.  If I can get $B + \{x\}$ Borel, the rest should follow fairly easily.  Of course, $\{x\}$ is Borel, so I've tried writing $\chi_{(B+\{x\})}$ as various combinations $\chi_{B}$ and $\chi_{\{x\}}$, but to no avail.  I've also tried working with set identities to write $B+\{x\}$ as the union/intersection/complement, etc of sets that are Borel measurable. A pointer in the right direction would be awesome.

A: Hint: for any $x \in \mathbb{R}$, the map $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ given by $f(y) = y+x$ is a homeomorphism.

A: First off, thanks for the answers.  I appreciate it.  I tried to work out the following proof based off of your suggestions.  Can someone please tell me if this is correct, and if not, why?
Suppose $B$ is Borel, $x$ $\in$ $R$.  Let $f(y)=y-x$.  Then $\chi_{(B+\{x\})}$$(y)$ $=$ $\chi_{B}$$(f(y))$ $=$ $\chi_{B}$$(y-x)$, since $y$ $\in$ $B+\{x\}$ $\iff$ $y-x$ $\in$ $B$.  Since $\chi_B$ Borel measurable and $f(y)$ continuous (and thus Borel measurable), $\chi_{B}$$(f(y))$ is Borel measurable.
At this point, I haven't proven that the composition of two Borel measurable functions produces a Borel measurable function.  Perhaps that is where the notion of homeomorphism comes in... I have to look at it further.  In any case, is this the right path?

The Story Behind the New Name for Triangle Wine Experience
The Triangle Wine & Food Experience has an updated name that underscores its growing support from local chefs, says Ashley Christensen.
Written by Ayn-Monique Klahre
Andrew Ullmam, Ashley Christensen and Sunny Gerhart | Kate Pope Photography
11, 3, 1, 4, 4.
No, it's not a secret code. Those numbers represent, respectively: the chefs, bakers cheesemongers, seafood chefs and dessert chefs who will be representing at this year's annual gala for the Triangle Wine & Food Experience (TWFE). Not to mention the 65 winemakers who will be pouring their vintages for the event.
Previously known as the Triangle Wine Experience, adding the F for "food" represents not just the fine dining that has always been central to the weekend—a fundraiser for the Frankie Lemmon School & Development Center in Raleigh—but the breadth of involvement from the local culinary scene. "I think the food is definitely as important as the wine," says chef Ashley Christensen. "The opportunity to pair great food and great wine together creates a heightened culinary experience for attendees, and the involvement of our local chefs anchors this event as something special and unique to the Triangle."
Most know that Ashley Christensen, the James Beard-winning chef behind Poole's Diner, Death & Taxes and many other restaurants in the area, has long been the culinary figurehead behind the event. Historically, the Triangle Wine Experience has pulled national and international winemakers to the area for a weekend exclusive dinners in local restaurants. But adding that F to make it the Triangle Wine & Food Experience underscores the contributions of Raleigh restaurateurs for this fundraising weekend.
"The involvement of our restaurant community has grown every year over the last decade or so; it's really followed the development of the restaurant scene overall," says Christensen. "One of the things that has been most exciting to me about the way our restaurant scene has grown is the shared sense of prioritizing important community causes, and every year there is more and more interest among the chefs in our community to get involved in TWFE."
Kate Pope Photography
From Thursday, January 30 through Saturday, February 1, nearly 2,000 guests will attend exclusive dinners benefiting the Frankie Lemmon School at dozens of local restaurants including Crawford & Son, Mandolin and Saint Jacques. Each restaurant will feature exclusive wines from 65 winemakers for a night of gastrological exploration. The weekend culminates with the Grand Gala & Auction on Saturday night, which pulls together the vintners and chefs for a truly special culinary event. "For me, it's a rare and incredibly inspiring experience to be in the same room with so much talent—there are very few local events that can illustrate the the power of our food community to come together and make a huge impact," says Christensen. "Everything about how Frankie Lemmon School has grown and developed speaks to this locally-harnessed power, and it reminds me of how special Raleigh is, and how much opportunity and responsibility we have to shape our community for the better."
While the evening will be one to remember, it's made even more special because of its huge impact for the local school: Because so much is donated—including every drop of wine, auction lots, airline miles and hotel stays for out-of-town guests—it serves as the primary fundraiser for the Frankie Lemmon School. "We have been blessed beyond measure to find supporters who donate their services and/or goods, so our bottom line isn't affected," says executive director Marsha Hargette. "It's extraordinary to think almost 85% of this event is donated. It is really because of a caring community who understands this concept and give, with no end goal in mind except keeping the doors of Frankie Lemmon School open and the children flourishing."
So come TWFE weekend, feel free to eat drink, and be merry knowing that it's all in the name of a good cause. "Working with Frankie Lemmon for the past 20 years has helped me understand what a gift it is to give back and what a responsibility we have as chefs,"says Christensen. "Food is a tie that binds, and the opportunity to make a difference in someone's life is one of the best and most rewarding aspects of this work."

"Funk 'n' Feathers" gives the canon a subtle dose of hip-hop and brings a timeless sound up to date.
Some of those questions apply to Funk 'n' Feathers, the new album from Cha Wa (Jazz and Heritage Stage, 4:15 p.m.). As an album, it's very impressive. A hip-hop sensibility runs through it, more pronounced in some tracks than others. The full band arrangements have enough contemporary life that they remind you that the band was at least part of what made the The Wild Tchoupitoulas and They Call Us Wild by The Wild Magnolias memorable, and that they were fresh in their moment. The band isn't following either record for a blueprint though, and "Shallow Water" is the most radical reimagining of an Indian standard in recent memory. Its Pink Floyd "Run Like Hell"-ness amps up the song's sense of foreboding.
At the same time, I wish Big Chief Irving "Honey" Banister and Spyboy J'Wan Boudreaux were more distinctive presences. They're hardly weak, but they're not larger than life either. The Meters' backing was a huge part of what made The Wild Tchoupitoulas album exciting, but Big Chief Jolly was a real vocal presence. He was no Bo Dollis, but his voice had personality—not something I get from Banister and Boudreaux on Funk 'n' Feathers. The production deals with—or perhaps exacerbates—this issue by periodically processing one of the voices, making it sound like it was coming through a bullhorn. That gives those vocal parts an electronic crackle that connects the album to the moment, and those bullhorned vocals always sound urgent, almost like necessary commentary on the music being made. At the same time, the individuality of the voice is muted by the technology.
It doesn't help that the album sticks to the Mardi Gras Indians canon, with only the just-fine "Cha Wa Got Fiya" to represent Cha Wa's additions to the body of songs. It's fine, but Funk 'n' Feathers' reliance on the standards makes it hard for them to stand out.
So am I into Cha Wa? I still don't know because I'm not sure who they are. But I am into Funk 'n' Feathers.

BUTLER GETS TROPHY FEVER
Skipper looking to launch JPT run...
SADDLERS' skipper, Andy Butler got his hands on the Johnstone's Paint Trophy last week when it made a special appearance at the Walsall branch of Johnstone's Paint and now it has whetted his appetite to do it for real on April 7th.
"It was the first time that I'd seen the trophy 'in the flesh' so to speak," he said. "It was a lot heavier than I thought it would be, so if we are going to win it this year I'll have to get on the weights before I lift it!
"Being realistic, this is one of only a couple of ways for us to get to Wembley and get our hands on some silverware. I know that Walsall have never played at Wembley, so to be the first captain to lead them out there would be amazing.
"Winning matches breeds confidence, so a good run in this competition would be really beneficial for us and offer extra games in which we can improve our performances."
A tough first hurdle lies ahead this evening as we face a Port Vale side who have also started the season in a positive fashion and overcame League One leaders, Tranmere Rovers in the previous round.
"Both teams are doing well and scoring plenty of goals, plus it's a local derby, so it has all the ingredients to be a great game," added the popular central defender. "It's been one of the most enjoyable seasons of my career so far. It really is a pleasure to be in this team; there's a great spirit and atmosphere amongst the players and staff."
Saddlers Player subscribers can see an interview with Andy Butler later today...

Exceptional trio celebrated at coaching awards
Three exceptional men who support the country's most promising golfers were celebrated at an awards dinner at the England Golf coaching conference.
Standing ovations marked the announcement of Yorkshire's Steve Robinson as 2016 Coach of the Year, Sussex's Alan Covey as Volunteer Manager of the Year, and Cheshire's Alan Thompson as the winner of the Lifetime Service Award.
Nigel Edwards, England Golf Performance Director, commented: "These are truly exceptional people who stand out for the support and encouragement they provide to our golfers, helping them to be the best they can."
The conference, attended by county, regional and national coaches and managers, had the theme of creating a winning culture – and the achievements of the three award winners helped to highlight this.
Steve Robinson (pictured top © Leaderboard Photography) has enjoyed a spectacular 2016, inspiring the England women's team to become European champions for the first time in 23 years. Victory was particularly sweet because his teams had been involved in bronze medal play-offs in the previous three years, but have left the championships empty handed on each occasion.
His players included Bronte Law, who has just turned professional after a stellar amateur career when she was ranked second in the world, played in three Curtis Cup teams, won the Annika Award as the top US college player and was European amateur champion.
She sent a message to the conference saying: "The gold medal represents all Robbo's work as a coach and mentor. He is not just a coach to me, he is a friend and I could not think of anyone who deserves this award more."
Robinson, who is based at Sandburn Hall, also coaches the Yorkshire boys' and women's teams – and between them they've won 11 English county championships. This year, three boys from the six-strong county squad have represented England and Robinson is also the personal coach to Charlie Thornton who won the England Golf Boys' Order of Merit.
He summed up how he creates a winning culture by saying: "It's all about building relationships with the players and making sure you know their vision and their mission."
Alan Covey is the Sussex junior manager and an England Golf regional manager – and has such an impact that he received three separate nominations for the award of Volunteer Manager of the Year.
One of his proposers summed him up: "One major factor of his success is that all the juniors like him. His encouragement and dedication to them is very evident and rewarded by their respect for him. I know many players who are now over 18 that keep in regular contact with him letting him know how they are progressing."
Within Sussex, Covey helps to organise coaching development for young players who wish to progress, and works with the county squads for players from U12 to U18 age groups.
As an England Golf regional manager he is generous in sharing his knowledge and experience with other managers. He organises many events, including a national start-of-season championship for U16 boys and girls – and he also took an England team to the 2016 Canadian International Junior Challenge and encouraged them to victory.
Covey commented on his award: "This isn't just about me, it's about every manager out there and all of us want to make a difference."
Alan Thompson was unable to be at the presentation of the Lifetime Service Award but delegates were told how he has dedicated his career to helping golfers achieve their full potential at all levels, working with club players, county golfers, elite national amateurs and top professionals.
He was Cheshire coach for 25 years and was the professional at Heswall Golf Club until 2012 – when he retired to concentrate on his coaching.
He's been assistant coach to the England Men's A Squad for many years and this season has been especially memorable with squad player Scott Gregory winning the Amateur Championship and the England Golf Men's Order of Merit.
He's also taught many European Tour players, including Lee Slattery and Ryder Cup player Jamie Donaldson.
Steve Burnett, the England Golf Men's Performance Manager, paid tribute to Thommo's achievements and said: "We want to say thank you for all your years of dedication, there are a lot of players out there who are very grateful."
During the conference delegates also heard from speakers including Sergio Lara-Bercial who has studied 'serial winning coaches' and Baroness Sue Campbell, who discussed turning 'good into great.' She chaired UK Sport from 2003-2013, presiding over Team GB and Paralympic GB's largest medal haul in living memory; she has been the chair of the Youth Sport Trust since 2005 and she is the FA's head of women's football.
Ben Stow and Ashley Chesters, who were top England amateurs before embarking on their professional careers, attended a Q&A session with delegates. Stow was the Brabazon Trophy champion and is now a Challenge Tour player, while Chesters was the double European amateur champion and has just won his European Tour card. Both have been supported by England Golf's Give Back scheme which provided them with a number of Challenge Tour starts; in return they give back a proportion of earnings over a certain level to support the squad programme.

Biology is an immensely diverse science. Biologists study life at all levels, from the fundamental building blocks (genes, proteins) to whole ecosystems in which myriads of species interact. Evolution is the unifying concept that runs through the life sciences, from the origin and diversification of life to understanding behaviour, to dealing with disease. Evolution through natural selection is the framework in biology in which specific details make sense. This unit explores how new species continue to arise while others go extinct and discusses the role of mutations as the raw material on which selection acts. It explains how information is transferred between generations through DNA, RNA and proteins, transformations which affect all aspects of biological form and function. Science builds and organises knowledge of life and evolution in the form of testable hypotheses. You will participate in inquiry-led practical classes investigating single-celled organisms and the diversity of form and function in plants and animals. By doing this unit of study, you will develop the ability to examine novel biological systems and understand the complex processes that have shaped those systems.

Biology is an immensely diverse science. Biologists study life at all levels, from the fundamental building blocks (genes, and proteins) to whole ecosystems in which myriad species interact. Evolution is the unifying concept that runs through the life sciences, from the origin and diversification of life to understanding behaviour, to dealing with disease. Evolution through natural selection is the framework in biology in which specific details make sense. Science builds and organises knowledge of life and evolution in the form of testable hypotheses. The practical work syllabus for BIOL1996 is different from that of BIOL1906 (Advanced) and consists of a special project-based laboratory.

The expanding US war campaign in Somalia, which has seen a fourfold increase in the number of soldiers in the nation since the start of 2017, carried out two drone strikes Friday against Daesh militants.
"The first strike occurred at about midnight East Africa Time, with the second strike taking place at about 11 a.m.," somewhere in northeastern Somalia, the Defense Department said in a November 3 news release.
Pentagon Africa Command spokesman Lt. Com. Anthony Falvo told the Associated Press it was the first such drone attack in Somalia of the year. The strikes are also being reported as the first salvoes by the US against Daesh in Somalia.
Data compiled by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism show that US aircraft — conventional and drone — have conducted 17 strikes in Somalia during 2017 operations, leading to an estimated 38-42 deaths. In 2016, US drone strike casualties in the east African nation tallied at least 204.
Al-Shabaab, a militant group that pledged loyalty to Islamist militant group Al-Qaeda in 2012, has carried out al-Qaeda style attacks on civilians in Kenya, Uganda and Djibouti in addition to Somalia. Now, AP reports, Daesh fighters have split from the group and are posing a threat of their own.
The battle between the Somali government and Al-Shabaab has picked up recently, but the insurgents have pushed on for decades. The Somali president declared a "a state of war" this week after seeking military support from neighboring nations in the wake of the truck bombing in Mogadishu October 14 that killed 358 and wounded scores more, according to AP.

John Troup Shewmake (* 23. Januar 1828 im  Burke County, Georgia; † 1. Dezember 1898 in Augusta, Georgia) war ein US-amerikanischer Jurist und Politiker.

Werdegang
John Troup Shewmake, Sohn von Anna Lassister und Joseph Shewmake (1779–1838), einem Plantagenbesitzer, wurde 1828 im Burke County geboren. Sein Vater war ein Sklavenhalter, welcher 1830 29 Sklaven besaß. Sein Bruder, Joseph Allen Shewmake (1816–1889), besaß 1840 23 Sklaven, welche er wahrscheinlich von ihrem Vater erbte. 1850 waren es bereits 33 Sklaven. Die Shewmakes betrieben eine eigne Eisenverhüttung bei Alexander (Burke County).

Über die Jugendjahre von John Troup Shewmake ist nichts bekannt. Irgendwann studierte er Jura und begann nach dem Erhalt seiner Zulassung als Anwalt zu praktizieren. Am 18. Dezember 1850 heiratete er Penelope Elizabeth Jones (1831–1901), jüngste Tochter von Henry Philip Jones aus Birdsville (Jenkins County). Das Paar bekam acht Kinder: Lena, Troup, William, Anne Virginia (1854–1927), Marshall Augustus (* 1855), Burke (* 1859), Henry Philip (* 1864) und Claude (* 1866). Shewmake bekleidete irgendwann auch das Richteramt. Er saß 1861 und 1879 im Senat von Georgia. Während des Bürgerkrieges diente er von 1864 bis 1865 im zweiten Konföderiertenkongress. Wahrscheinlich nahm er nach dem Ende des Krieges seine Tätigkeit als Jurist wieder auf. Er verstarb in Augusta (Richmond County) und wurde dann dort auf dem Magnolia Cemetery beigesetzt.

Q: ADB shell commands on one line / bash script? For most ADB commands, I understand how to run them on a single line or even when placing them in a shell script, it can easily be done by implementing the secondary command after 'adb shell' but adding " ".
But for some reason nothing works on trying to run this command via a single line or even by putting it in a shell script:
adb shell
task_id=$(dumpsys activity | grep -A2 "(dumpsys activity recents)"| grep '#'| cut -d ' ' -f 7| cut -c 2-); am task lock $task_id

Btw, this is to "screen pin" an application on Android devices.

A: You need quotes around your commands :
adb shell '
task_id=$(dumpsys activity | grep -A2 "(dumpsys activity recents)"| grep "#"| cut -d " " -f 7| cut -c 2-)
echo "locking task $task_id"
am task lock $task_id
'

or on one line:
adb shell 'task_id=$(dumpsys activity | grep -A2 "(dumpsys activity recents)"| grep "#"| cut -d " " -f 7| cut -c 2-); am task lock $task_id'

Q: Bash: What does "masking return values" mean? shellcheck generated the following warning
SC2155: Declare and assign separately to avoid masking return
values

For this line of code
local key_value=$(echo "$current_line" | mawk '/.+=.+/ {print $1 }')

What does "masking return values" mean, and how does it pertain to the aforementioned warning?

A: When you declare a variable as either local or exported that in itself is a command that will return success or not.
$ var=$(false)
$ echo $?
1
$ export var=$(false)
$ echo $?
0

So if you wanted to act on the return value of your command (echo "$current_line" | mawk '/.+=.+/ {print $1 }'), you would be unable to since it's going to exit with 0 as long as the local declaration succeeds (which is almost always will).
In order to avoid this it suggests declaring separately and then assigning:
local key_value
key_value=$(echo "$current_line" | mawk '/.+=.+/ {print $1 }')

This is a shellcheck rule I frequently ignore and IMO is safe to ignore as long as you know you aren't trying to act on the return value of that variable declaration.
You can ignore it by adding the following to the top of your script (Below the hashbang of course):
# shellcheck disable=SC2155


President Trump went on a Twitter tirade Sunday, acknowledging for the first time that the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting in the crosshairs of the Robert Mueller investigation was to gather information on his political rival Hillary Clinton.
The President's latest social media meltdown was in reaction to what he called a "complete fabrication" in Sunday's Washington Post claiming Trump was concerned "innocent and decent people," including his son Donald Trump Jr., could be hurt by Mueller's probe exploring links between Trump's campaign and Russia.
"This was a meeting to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics — and it went nowhere," he wrote. "I did not know about it!"
Sekulow, who had only recently joined the Trump team when the statement was drafted, admitted that the public explanation for the meeting has changed, but emphasized the White House has been clear with the special counsel's office. He also said he was not aware of Trump Jr. facing any legal exposure.
It is illegal for a foreign national or government to make any contribution or donation of money or other thing of value to a campaign, according to the Federal Election Commission.
Trump's Sunday morning flurry also attacked the special counsel and the media.
"Too bad a large portion of the Media refuses to report the lies and corruption having to do with the Rigged Witch Hunt — but that is why we call them FAKE NEWS!" he wrote.
"The Fake News hates me saying that they are the Enemy of the People only because they know it's TRUE," Trump tweeted. "I am providing a great service by explaining this to the American People. They purposely cause great division & distrust. They can also cause War! They are very dangerous & sick!"
According to The Washington Post, in addition to being upset about the Russia probe, The President appears to be distracted by the trial of Paul Manafort, his former campaign chairman.

More Information about Ireland
With its 4,832,765 people, Ireland is the 122nd largest country in the world by population. It is the 120th largest country in the world by area with 70,273 square kilometers.
Celtic tribes arrived on the island between 600 and 150 B.C. Invasions by Norsemen that began in the late 8th century were finally ended when King Brian BORU defeated the Danes in 1014. Norman invasions began in the 12th century and set off more than seven centuries of Anglo-Irish struggle marked by fierce rebellions and harsh repressions. The Irish famine of the mid-19th century saw the population of the island drop by one third through starvation and emigration. For more than a century after that the population of the island continued to fall only to begin growing again in the 1960s. Over the last 50 years, Ireland's high birthrate has made it demographically one of the youngest populations in the EU. The modern Irish state traces its origins to the failed 1916 Easter Monday Uprising which touched off several years of guerrilla warfare resulting in independence from the UK in 1921 for 26 southern counties; six northern counties remained part of the UK. Unresolved issues in Northern Ireland erupted into years of violence known as the "Troubles" that began in the 1960s. The Government of Ireland was part of a process along with the UK and US Governments that helped broker what is known as The Good Friday Agreement in Northern Ireland in 1998. This initiated a new phase of cooperation between Irish and British governments. Ireland was neutral in World War II and continues its policy of military neutrality. Ireland joined the European Community in 1973 and the Eurozone currency union in 1999. The economic boom years of the Celtic Tiger (1995-2007) saw rapid economic growth, which came to an abrupt end in 2008 with the meltdown of the Irish banking system. Today the economy is recovering, fueled by large and growing foreign direct investment, especially from US multi-nationals.

Q: How to update a node in Modified Preorder Tree Traversal I am using MPTT for storing Hierarchies. The concept for Adding and Deleting is well explained in this Modified Preorder Tree Traversal link.
How do we update a particular node and its tree associated with it in Modified preorder tree traversal ?
For eg:- If i want to move TLA and its hierarchy under TLC. Using sql script how can we do that?

Any help appreciated .
Thanks!

A: Based on that link - it looks like you update the tree by taking a given root node, and updating all nodes that have both a left value greater than the left value of that root node and a right value less than the right value of that root node.  Seems pretty straightforward.  Does that help?

A: I think the best way is to remove the TLA and its hierarchy, then append them recursively to TLC. It requires several SQL statements to achieve that.

A: Move the TLA node after the Tech Support node:
@TlaLeft = 2
@TlaRight = 7
@TechSupportRight = 18

First update the new location of the TLA:
UPDATE Tree SET lft = lft + @TlaRight - @TlaLeft + 1, rgt = rgt + @TlaRight - @TlaLeft + 1  WHERE rgt > @TechSupportRight;

Second update the TLA itself, and its descendants if any, to the new location:
UPDATE Tree SET lft = lft + (@TechSupportRight - @TlaLeft) + 1, rgt = rgt + (@TechSupportRight - @TlaRight) + 1  WHERE lft >= @TlaLeft AND rgt <= @TlaRight;

Third update the old TLA location:
UPDATE Tree SET lft = lft - (@TlaRight - @TlaLeft ) - 1 WHERE lft > @TlaLeft;
UPDATE Tree SET rgt = rgt - (@TlaRight - @TlaLeft ) - 1 WHERE rgt > @TlaRight;

their roots and discover new family members.
Nordic-fare favorites once the kitchen updates have been completed. With the recent closures of local Swedish businesses, we believe it is more important than ever to continue our work of making Andersonville a vibrant neighborhood that showcases our significant Scandinavian history.
We are looking forward to this new chapter as we come to the close of our anniversary celebration, and we plan to take the Museum to even greater heights in the next 40 years and beyond due to your support. Many thanks to everyone who donated to our 40th Anniversary Campaign, and special thanks to those who made contributions of almost $950,000.
On Sept. 8, 2017 the Swedish American Museum at 5211 N. Clark St., Chicago, purchased the three-story building on its north side for future expansion. "On the heels of the return of our rooftop water tank, this opportunity to grow is exciting to us," said Executive Director Karin Moen Abercrombie.
Planning has begun for eventual use of the facility when the leases of current occupants expire. In addition to the retail storefront at 5217 N. Clark St., apartments are located on the second and third floors.
The acquisition is independent of current Museum improvements at 5211 that are supported by the 40th Anniversary Campaign. Commercial financing was secured to make the purchase.
Abercrombie stressed the cultural impact of Museum enlargement on enhancing the Scandinavian character of the historic community, where in recent years some local Swedish businesses have closed.
"We are excited with this chance to help continue the work of making Andersonville a wonderful neighborhood with a significant history," Abercrombie said, noting that the expansion will add almost 20% street level presence for the Museum.
Architecturally, the adjoining buildings are remarkably similar. The 5217 structure was built by Swedish architect Anders (Andrew) Norman in 1914. Sources suggest that he may have been involved in designing the original 5211 building. He also was the architect for nearby Ebenezer Lutheran Church in 1904.
Installation of the new blue-and-yellow Andersonville Water Tank on the roof of the Swedish American Museum is scheduled for tomorrow, Aug. 8. Clark Street will be closed from Foster to Farragut to accommodate two lifting cranes starting at 7 a.m. and will remain closed until the project is complete later in the day. Onlookers are advised to avoid the East sidewalk on Clark between Foster and Farragut. We will have staff guiding when viewers can be on the west side of Clark Street to watch or south of Foster and north of Farragut.
More than three years after the historic blue-and-yellow Andersonville water tank was removed from the roof of the Swedish American Museum, the replica has undergone assembly in the Museum parking lot for the last few weeks prior to tomorrow's installation.
The three-story building where the water tank stood was built for the Lind Hardware Store in 1927. Water from the wooden tank served as a fire-suppression system for almost a century, but the fiberglass replica will not contain water.
The Swedish American Museum relocated to the vacant building in 1987, and the tank was painted in the colors of the Swedish flag about 20 years ago. It is considered a beacon of the Andersonville community.
Story preview: "Located in the heart of Andersonville, Illinois, the Swedish American Museum has been providing a glimpse into Swedish heritage to the most traditionally Swedish area of Chicago for over 40 years. Andersonville has long been known for its Swedish roots, boasting an active tourist population looking to purchase Swedish foods, gifts, and partake in Swedish holidays." – Elisha Neubauer.

dogs' and cats' dining pleasure and health. Self-cooling ceramic pet bowls will keep pet food and water cool for hours, keeping food fresh without the need of a refrigerator, even on a warm day. All you have to do is run the bowl under cold water for 60 seconds.
The neat thing about terracotta is that, when wet, it creates its own refrigeration using a system of heat exchange. The unglazed, porous terracotta surface absorbs the water and sends it back to the outer surface. When the water makes contact with the air, evaporation occurs and, as the liquid water turns to gas, the reaction cools the object and whatever is inside. This process goes on for hours with only a 60-second initial contact with water. You cannot see the science, but you can see the design, and these are ingenious and stylish bowls. The exterior, matte, terracotta colors come in black and soft pink and blue. Inside, each bowl is glazed in a glossy cream surface safe for food.
In addition to plain bowls, the series also includes the Happy Pet Project Slow Dining Bowls. These bowls have all of the same features as the original bowls but have an added three-dimensional shape rising from the bottom of the bowl. Dog bowls, large and small, feature bones and cat bowls, fish. Veterinarians praise the Slow Dining Bowls for helping pets with overeating issues by preventing the ability to gulp food. This aids in chewing and is ultimately good for dental hygiene. Even if you do not have a pet, think about getting one to set outside for the hot and thirsty pets in your neighborhood.
We would like to take this opportunity to introduce some of the new faces you might have seen around the Museum. Rebekah, Scott, Luana and Madeleine have come on board to offer the Museum their skills and talents as volunteers.
Rebekah has recently joined us to "support the Museum in its mission of education; preserving and sharing the history of Sverige and Svensk immigrants to the United States." Her parents came from Sweden (she is half Sami) and she is hoping to learn more about Swedish culture and her heritage. Rebekah lives in Evanston and works as a nanny now that her three children have gone off to college.
Scott recently moved to Chicago and is "hoping to get involved in [his] new neighborhood" by learning about one of the biggest cultural aspects of Andersonville. After graduating from the University of Indiana in December, Scott transported himself here and currently works at Berlin Packaging. Scott thoroughly enjoys running, volunteering, reading and meeting new people.
Luana and her husband recently moved to Chicago from Australia but she is originally from Brazil where she worked in marketing and advertising. While in Chicago, she is studying integrated marketing and is working to improve her English at DePaul University. She is very excited to learn about two cultures during her time here in Chicago.
Madeleine has joined us from Stockholm, Sweden. She moved to Chicago to pursue her master's degree in integrated marketing communications. She hopes to help the Museum reach a larger audience. Currently the Museum has four interns who look to gain valuable skills to take with them in future endeavors.
working with the Museum Store but will soon start their work in the Children's Museum. Both study psychology with an emphasis on early childhood at Northeastern Illinois University.
Sarah is a senior who will be graduating in May. She reflected on her experience interning at the Museum Store saying, "Out of this experience, I hope to gain a better understanding of the museum industry as a whole." Sarah hopes to one day be a dance therapist to help children on the autism spectrum.
Maribel has a passion for working with children. As an intern at the Museum, she "hopes to learn the ways the museum presents cultural and immigration information to visitors of all ages." After graduation, Maribel hopes to put what she learned toward her childhood psychology emphasis.
The communications department has gained a new intern, Mary Kate, who is an avid fan of museums and all things history. Mary Kate is a junior studying communication with an emphasis on film at Loyola University Chicago. She explains her love for historic institutions such as ours, saying, "Learning about new and interesting aspects of cultures and history is fascinating and a humbling way to realize how interconnected we all are on this earth." Mary Kate helps with social media, marketing, planning and promoting for the Museum. She is very fond of her time here and hopes to one day go into museum work and create documentaries.
Moa is currently studying curatorial studies at Stockholm University with an emphasis on historical artifacts. She has a BA degree in Fashion Studies and a great interest in the cultural heritage of traditional Nordic folk costumes and the relationship between clothing and national identity. Moa hopes to learn more about the curatorial work at the museum and the Swedish-American culture.
Interns and volunteers are an integral part of the running of our Museum – they offer as much as they learn to our community here. It is our goal to make interns feel appreciated and valued while they are learning valuable, practical skills for their future endeavors.


Figuring out what's wrong with the media's coverage of organized labor.
Of course, no war of words can be won without help from the media, and the major newspapers, whether consciously or not, offered Northwest a helping hand in the opening days of the strike. The New York Times gushed: "Well-Laid Plan Kept Northwest Flying In Strike," complete with cloying paragraphs on how the airline was still running "smoothly" despite those uppity workers causing a big ruckus. USA Today followed suit: "Northwest Flies Undaunted," expressing admiration for the company's strategy of using scabs—or, as the media dubs them, "replacement workers"—to weather these tough times. Two days later, the Times, came back with a long and enthusiastic profile of the Northwest scabs, noting that they were "taking part in [a] historic moment: busting unions, 21st century style." Other headlines swooned over Northwest's ability to keep its stock prices high. And that was just the liberal press.
Reasonable disagreements about the AMFA strike are perfectly possible. While I personally wouldn't buy a Northwest ticket right now, and my first instinct is to support the strikers, the AMFA has certainly gone out of its way to antagonize other unions over the years by poaching workers (the backstory for this dispute is here). The union, meanwhile, has picked the worst possible time to strike—over 130,000 airline jobs have vanished this decade, and "replacement workers" are plentiful—and had no strategy to coordinate with other airline unions, many of whom it has alienated, or otherwise go up against an airline that has been honing its union-busting tactics for years. The AMFA may still prevail—or Northwest may soon go bankrupt, especially now that Hurricane Katrina has sent fuel costs sky high. But regardless of these questions, the alacrity with which the press jumped into Northwest's corner was something to behold.
This is hardly the first time media coverage has shown itself hostile to organized labor. In June, as workers for the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) in San Francisco and Oakland threatened to strike, the local coverage managed to cast the labor dispute as a battle between (greedy) workers who wanted a raise and (beleaguered) commuters who didn't want another fare hike and a state facing a $100 million deficit in its budget. No media story that I came across pointed out that BART's workers are paid out of the same operating budget that has been used to pay for the railway's exploding construction costs over the past decade. It was hard to find any story that pointed out that land developers and construction companies—the same interests that lavishly finance election candidates to BART's board of directors—have been pushing continually for further expansion of the railway while keeping payroll down. David Bacon, a former union organizer, warned of the problems this tension would cause way back in 1997. Perhaps, in the end, the BART workers, with an average salary of $67,000, really were just getting greedy (although the idea that workers should just be satisfied with what they already have is hardly a pro-worker sentiment). But the Bay Area press all but assumed that, rather than reporting it.
In a way, so what? It's what one comes to expect from a media increasingly owned and dominated by corporate interests. But the particular way in which the press has covered labor deserves closer attention. Christopher Martin, a communication studies professor at the University of Iowa, recently dealt with this issue in his book, Framed: Labor and the Corporate Media. Martin argues that the media "frames" labor disputes using five key assumptions. First, the consumer is always right: the press will investigate how strikes affect consumers, while devoting scant attention to workplace conditions. Second, the public doesn't need to know about the process of production, or, if anything, can be told in simple terms (as with the BART dispute). Third, business leaders are the true heroes of the American economy. Fourth, the workplace is and should be a meritocracy. Fifth, collective action distorts the market. These assumptions, Martin argues, guide the vast majority of labor coverage.
Of course, this wasn't just some perverse side-effect of the "New Economy" ethos in the 1990s, when pundits told Americans, quite falsely, that the brick-and-mortar economy, along with its cumbersome unions, was a thing of the past (ignoring the fact that the fastest-growing jobs in America are still in very brick-and-mortar careers such as nursing, teaching, and truck-driving). Back in 1989, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), a media watchdog, issued a report delivering nearly the same indictment as Martin. Few major media outlets, the report found, carried a dedicated labor reporter any longer. (Important exceptions certainly exist: Steven Greenhouse of the New York Times is a fantastic and largely sympathetic labor reporter, although he wasn't assigned to the Northwest story.) By and large, the labor beat has largely been replaced, in the business sections of major newspapers, by the often-frivolous "workplace beat," while editors show scant interest in labor stories unless something important happens, such as a strike or infighting among unions.
Cable outlets on TV, for their part, devote time and energy to creating and running corporate- and finance-oriented shows, despite the fact that most of them have earned piddling ratings since the stock market crash in 2001. Yet not even PBS has a labor counterpart to "Kudlow and Cramer". One might presume that the market has spoken, and there's just no demand for labor coverage, but union density still hovers at around 12.9 percent, and it seems hard to believe that the potential audience just doesn't exist.
Ultimately, though, harping on mass media coverage won't get anyone anywhere. If anything's worth doing, unions will have to do it themselves. Yet the rapid decline in union density over the past three decades has forced hundreds of labor publications to shutter up, including the 2002 closing of the Racine Labor, a Wisconsin-based newsletter that had survived for over 60 years and had often been held up as a model for other aspiring labor papers to emulate. This state of affairs is a far, far cry from the turn of the 20th century, when the Appeal to Reason, a socialist rag, boasted 760,000 subscribers at its peak. Perhaps the internet will someday revive that tradition; one can always hope. In the meantime, though, the cycle will very likely continue: the liberal media will avert its innocent eyes as business slowly but surely dismantles organized labor, which will put even more worker publications in dire straits, which will in turn convince the Times and the networks that "the people," apparently, demand more stories about workplace gossip and less and less about the means of production.


Objectives: To provide healthcare professionals with a clear, concise summary of key prescribing points taken from NICE guidance, and to facilitate implementation of NICE guidance and promote best practice by providing easily accessible information at the point of prescribing.
Background: This project originated from a request by a local senior commissioning pharmacist for assistance in incorporation of key prescribing points from NICE guidance into their local Health Economy formulary. It was recognised that this might be useful across the North West Strategic Health Authority. The suggested format was an electronic bulletin consisting of two sides of A4, to be published monthly for distribution to healthcare professionals. It would include key prescribing recommendations and signpost readers to full NICE guidance. This bulletin would be cascaded to prescribers within primary and secondary care in PDF and Word to enable incorporation into local formularies.
Method: 1) An initial draft bulletin entitled 'NICE Bites' was compiled and circulated to Heads of Medicines Management for comment.
2) To ensure accuracy, clarity and consistency a writing guide was compiled and standard operating procedures set up in accordance with UKMi recommendations for clinical governance.
3) A proposed work schedule was developed to include NICE Clinical Guidelines and Technology Appraisals for inclusion in 'NICE Bites' within 1 month after publication.
4) In Jan 2009 the first edition of 'NICE Bites' was published and circulated to the following groups: chief pharmacists, local and regional medicines information pharmacists, PCT pharmacists, senior medicines management pharmacists, community pharmacists and NICE implementation pharmacists.
5) In Mar 2009 'NICE Bites' became available online at www.medicinesresources.nhs.uk .
Monitoring and evaluation: 'NICE Bites' is being used locally and nationally to facilitate NICE implementation. It is difficult to assess the impact on practice at this stage so a questionnaire survey is planned for 2010 to evaluate the usefulness of this publication and any impact on prescribing. Anecdotally: a local PCT is including it in their prescribing newsletter, others are cascading it to prescribing leads and one GP was prompted to start an audit on prescribing of glucosamine, attendance at a local committee of Prescribing Leads led to the agreement to use this publication to disseminate information to prescribers and facilitate monthly appraisals of local implementation of NICE guidance.

Modern steel has rapidly become one of the most energy efficient building materials to produce. Between the early 1990s and 2007, the U.S steel industry cut energy use per ton of steel by nearly 1/3.
Cold-formed steel (CFS) buildings can be some of the highest performing buildings. CFS buildings have been built to Energy Star status, and can meet LEED requirements and other green building programs and standards.
Whole building design of the energy package using readily available simulation tools will enable code compliant and cost-effective solutions to today's more stringent energy codes.
With a few basics under your belt, you can build a steel framed building that is as or more efficient than a building constructed with competing materials. First, keep in mind that all building materials transmit heat. When placed in a wall or other part of a building, the wood or steel studs, joists, trusses, concrete beams, masonry block, brick, and even nails and screws provide a pathway for heat transmission. In some cases, the extra heat loss amounts to very little in terms of actual energy use. In other cases, especially in colder climates, it can be significant.
In order to address unacceptable heat transmission though metal, wood, or concrete, designers and building codes frequently require a layer of continuous insulation, usually a foam product, on the exterior of wall, floor, or roof assemblies that are exposed to the exterior. For any building, foam insulation adds costs, for example, a 1" layer of foam on a steel wall assembly can add as much as $1/sf of wall area, or thousands of dollars to even a small building.
The Steel Framing Alliance has taken an approach to thermal performance of steel framed buildings that includes research to improve performance, development of design guides and other tools, and a campaign to insure that current codes and standards contain the best available information on the performance of steel, have fair requirements that do not favor one material over another, and provide maximum flexibility for compliance. The approach encompasses the following:
Recognizing that the steel industry is innovative. Numerous systems have been developed that effectively eliminate or reduce thermal bridging through steel members. Systems include steel panels imbedded into foam insulation, "warm wall" designs where steel is placed entirely inside the insulation layer, and cost effective ways to use continuous foam insulation.
Encouraging Steel Framing Alliance members to take advantage of some cost effective methods to build a higher performing building without necessarily adding excessive amounts of foam insulation to the exterior. Higher efficiency water heaters or heating and cooling equipment, better windows, or more insulation elsewhere are all options to explore.
Encouraging steel framers and manufacturers to get involved early with the designer or building owner to insure a good performing building that does not needlessly over burden the framing with excessive costs for energy code compliance. The Steel Framing Alliance Thermal Design Guide describes how to use a building simulation or performance approach to getting the most out of your design. However, this requires a change in role of framers or steel manufacturers or suppliers on the constructed project.They must be willing to get much more involved in the upfront design of the building.
Thermal Design and Code Compliance for Cold-Formed Steel Walls.
Improving Thermal Performance of Single Family Homes in Hawaii through High Solar Reflectance Coatings on Above Grade Walls. Also applicable to homes in other locations of Climate Zone 1 and 2 of the International Energy Conservation Code.
Training Session. Understand the IECC and how it relates to steel framing. Although developed for Hawaii with a focus on housing, this session provides information applicable to all building types and locations throughout the United States.
Siding attachment over foam insulation – research report. SFA, with support from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, sponsored this testing and analysis program to provide solutions for attaching siding and other cladding materials to CFS walls when the energy code requires thick layers of continuous insulation on the exterior of the wall.
Assessment of commonly-used code compliance simulation software relative to cold-formed steel framing. Understanding software options will become more important to the CFS industry as newer energy codes are adopted in the coming years.

Mitchell fires back at Lloyd
PoliticsApril 19, 2018April 19, 2018 at 4:36 am Theo Sealy
From left: Minister of Education, Jeff Lloyd and Progressive Liberal Party Chairman, Senator Fred Mitchell.
Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) Chairman Senator Fred Mitchell revealed Wednesday that he has hard evidence proving Minister of Education Jeff Lloyd misspoke, when he suggested that Mitchell lied to Bahamians concerning the government's refusal to acknowledge and accept a proposal for infrastructural upgrades to an educational facility in Fox Hill.
"Lies, absolute pure lies, lies," is how Lloyd described Mitchell's assertions that the government has ignored a private donor's proposal to execute infrastructural upgrades at Sandilands Primary School.
The proposed upgrades would, according to Mitchell, include building an administration block at Sandilands Primary School, while converting the current administration building into a pre-school.
"All the minister has to do is check the records," Mitchell said in a press statement yesterday.
"I have an email trail relating to this matter in communication with the minister of education that goes back to October of last year. We will really see who is a liar."
"The indecorous language that these new ministers use in public doesn't frighten me. The minister of education should retract any statement that suggested that what I said was a lie. He knows better.
"I wrote him a note this morning (Wednesday) and asked him if he had taken leave of his senses. They must not get too big for their britches or forget themselves, or there must be hell to pay."
Lloyd went on record Tuesday to note that his ministry has never received any proposal for upgrades at Sandilands Primary School.
"Anybody who wants to make a donation to the Ministry of Education must come through the minister of education. If there is any approval for any building to be done, it must come across the minister's desk and I haven't seen any," said Lloyd.
However, Mitchell retorted that Lloyd's ministry "had previously agreed to assist in the costs of the proposal. They have reneged on the deal.
"No matter their issues with the messenger, they must build the new administration building and the pre-school. It is badly needed."
Mitchell said he has checked with the private donor and confirmed that the offer "still stands".
Eyewitness News attempted to contact Lloyd for a response to Mitchell's assertions.
He was unavailable for comment up to the publishing of this article.

David Mark flags off construction of N7.3bn rural roads in Bauchi
By Ishola Michael - Bauchi On Dec 29, 2020
The need for inclusive governance that has the welfare of the people at heart has been stressed if democratic government is to thrive in the country just as construction of accessible roads particularly to open up rural communities has been advocated for.
The assertion was made by former Senate President, David Bonaventure Mark while flagging off the construction of three rural roads in Bauchi on Tuesday.
While speaking at the ceremony held in Katanga Warji for the construction of the 13.5km Warji – Gwaram rural road, the two-term President of the Nigerian Senate said that opening up the rural areas will bring development closer to the people.
He, therefore, commended Bauchi State Governor, Sen Bala Mohammed Abdulkadir, for embarking on the construction of roads particularly rural roads urging him to do more until all rural communities were linked up to development.
Bauchi State Governor, Sen Bala Mohammed Abdulkadir, in his speech declared that roads are pivotal to development because accessibility is key to effective governance the more reason his administration has embarked on massive construction of roads across the state.
The governor added that the priority of his PDP led administration is to change the perspective of governance in the state in order to make it rank among its contemporaries in the country.
Bala Mohammed explained that the 3 roads will cost the government a total of sum N7.3 billion and will be completed within 24 dry months expressing confidence that the contractor, Habibu Nigeria Engineering will deliver as expected.
The Governor who was full of appreciation for the cooperation between the executive and legislative arms of government stressed that without such collaboration it will be difficult for any democratic government to succeed.
Earlier, Commissioner of Works and Transport, Abdulkadir Ibrahim, said that roads are a measure of the development of any area stressing that without good access road a state cannot be regarded as developed.

The Commissioner who disclosed that so far since coming on board, the Bala Mohammed Abdulkadir led PDP administration has completed 10 roads across the state while 19 others are at various stages of construction with the aim of opening up the rural areas for grassroots development.
Chairman, Bauchi State House Committee on Works, Yusuf Inuwa Dadiye stated that the Legislative arm is proud to be associated with the Executive arm because according to him what they want is the development and the executive is doing well in that area.
He said that they were surprised to see that 23 different roads are being construed across the state within a short period assuring that the Assembly will continue to collaborate with the executive.
Chairman of Warji LGC, Adamu Mohammed Danjumai commended the construction of the road which he said will further connect the area to the rest of the Northern part of the state as well as neighbouring states of Kano and Jigawa.
