FinePix F700 offers 6.2 million effective pixels to capture images with quality approaching that of film
ELMSFORD, NY, February 19, 2003 - Fuji Photo Film U.S.A., Inc. today unveiled the first consumer 6.2 megapixel (S-pixel: 3.1 million, R-pixel: 3.1 million) digital camera, which carries its proprietary new Super CCD SR (Super Dynamic Range) technology. Capturing pictures with quality approaching that of film, with the capability to capture 2,832 x 2,128 (6.03 million) recorded pixels, and dramatically increased dynamic range, the new Fujifilm FinePix F700 represents a new frontier in digital photography. The Fujifilm FinePix F700 is the first 6.2 million effective pixel (S-pixel: 3.1 million, R-pixel: 3.1 million) consumer digital camera on the market today.
One of two new Fujifilm digital cameras announced today, the FinePix F700 is intended for photo enthusiasts who want a near-film quality print experience from digital imaging products. The FinePix F700 produces digital pictures that stay truer to life than ever before, thanks to its Super CCD SR technology, which doubles the number of pixels on the chip. The SR sensor offers 3.1 million large pixels (S) with high sensitivity to light, and 3.1 million smaller pixels (R) with low sensitivity to light, resulting in a dynamic range of four times that of previous Super CCDs. Fujifilm combines this new technology with the traditional color integrity and overall high quality imaging Fujifilm is best known for, allowing consumers to capture truer-to-life images.
The FinePix F700's sleek metal body echoes traditional film-camera design with centralized placement of its viewfinder, lens and 1.8 inch LCD screen. Its 6.2 million effective pixels (S-pixel: 3.1 million, R-pixel: 3.1 million) can produce high-resolution images with 2,832 x 2,128 (6.03 million) recorded pixels. In addition, the FinePix F700 offers on-demand continuous auto-focus, three color modes, manual functions, advanced movie recording capabilities, diminished shutter lag, and at 1.2 seconds, one of the fastest start-up times on the market. The FinePix F700 also comes with a cradle for easy downloading and recharging.
"The FinePix F700 is representative of Fujifilm's focus - leading-edge technology combined with an enjoyable user experience. The camera's sleek and familiar form factor, combined with its increased dynamic range, heightened sensitivity, and unique functions will make it the new camera of choice for consumers who seek the highest standard in picture quality," said Eric Thorng, Senior Marketing Manager of Consumer Digital Imaging Products, Consumer Markets Division, Fuji Photo Film U.S.A., Inc.
Some of the Fujifilm FinePix F700's most exciting features include:
The FinePix F700 comes bundled with an NP-40 battery, USB/AV cable, hand strap, 16MB xD-Picture Card, AC Power Adapter, and Picture Cradle / Battery Charger, FinePixViewer 4.0, ImageMixer VCD for FinePix 1.0 software. The camera will be available for purchase in April 2003 at the suggested list price of $599.95.
- Increased dynamic range and resolution - The camera's fourth-generation Super CCD SR technology provide 6.2 million (S-pixel: 3.1 million, R-pixel: 3.1 million) effective pixels, resulting in 2,832 x 2,128 (6.03 million) recorded pixel output. The sensor's increased dynamic range helps to create pictures of a quality approaching that of film.
- Zoom - The FinePix F700 offers 6.6x zoom capabilities, with a 3x optical zoom and 2.2x digital zoom.
- Exposure modes and manual functions - The camera offers P/A/S/M exposure modes and manual settings, allowing consumers a more interactive experience while capturing high-quality images.

- Rapid continuous auto-focus on demand - The camera offers consumers a rapid continuous auto-focus (C-AF) on-demand mode in addition to its built-in autofocus capabilities. Consumers can choose to capture action shots in crisp, clear focus by pressing the C-AF button, located just to the left of the lens, to engage a full-time active fine focus adjustment. This choice conserves power, while allowing the consumer flexibility in capturing their images.
- Color modes - The FinePix F700 produces near film quality pictures in standard color mode, and also offers black and white and chrome settings. The FinePix F700 also allows users to capture their images in RAW files as well as the JPEG format.
- Sleek and familiar style - The camera's unique horizontal design echoes that of traditional cameras, and places the viewfinder, lens, and 1.8 inch LCD screen in the center of its sleek metal body. Its start-up time is one of the market's fastest, ready to capture images only 1.2 seconds from the time it is turned on.
- Movie recording with sound - The FinePix F700 captures full resolution VGA digital video at 30 frames/second with sound, for non-stop unbuffered recording directly onto storage media. Movies can be replayed for friends and family at later dates on NTSC or PAL outputs.

I’ve always been a fan of the Charger line up. Whether it’s a Scatpack, a Hellcat, Daytona or Brass Monkey, I love it all. The style is old school but modern and inside it’s comfy but cool. But the drive? Well, it’s American muscle.. whaddya expect? It’s time to expect more, kids because the Widebody Charger is here and it drives like stink.
I spent a few days driving it up in Sonoma, CA both at the famed raceway and on the picturesque roads. Pity me, please:
When the designer presented the vehicle to us, he said these words, “Our goal was to make a vehicle that was badass. ..We wanted it to be modern, cool and maybe even a little offensive.” Feeling like he could be describing my epitaph, I was intrigued.
Yet my previous experience with the Hellcat made me 100% skeptical that this Dodge could really deliver behind the wheel.
Then the engineer hopped up on stage and dropped a few additional golden nuggets. First wider tires (Pirelli 305/35ZR20), then competition suspension tuning with Bilstein adaptive damping and EPS—electric power steering. Now if this all sounds like Greek to you, think about it this way, more rubber on the road is the difference between running in heels and running in sneakers. Better suspension is the difference between riding your mountain bike and riding your kid’s Radio Flyer and the steering, well I dare you to tell me when enhanced steering isn’t better. With all of these new features I starting thinking, You know what, maybe today won’t be bad after all.
Turns out, it was incredible. I was 100% blown away. Here’s my video evidence:
*incredible bang for the buck 707 horsepower for just under $70k (the 2020 BMW M5 produces 600hp and is $102k)
*performance you’d never expect from an American sedan– responsive, powerful with little to no body roll
*new colors offer new tones with a historic nod
*widebody enhancements make this the first American muscle car that will not only win the carpool drag race but will also win the getaway chase through the canyons, wow!
*the exterior design holds true to the original but lacks additional refinement and distinction
*wide seats make it hard for those of us who aren’t wide-bodied to keep comfortable (see what I did there?)
*A baffling mess of SRT Performance Pages interface in the Infotainment system makes my head spin. I much prefer my M button, though I’m sure plenty of dudes would love geeking out over this.
This is the best American performance sedan you can buy. Hands down. With very few competitors, it will easily own this space and you should expect its little brother, the ScatPack Widebody (at $45k), to dominate a gym parking lot near you very, very soon. Well done, Dodge.

Route 147 is a 4.23-mile-long (6.81 km) east–west state highway in Massachusetts, serving the cities of Agawam and West Springfield. Its western terminus is at Mill Street and Springfield Street in Agawam, and its eastern terminus is at U.S. Route 5 (US 5) in West Springfield. It follows the easternmost few miles of the former route of Route 57 before it was moved onto a limited access freeway a mile south, the Henry E. Bodurtha Highway, completed in 1966.
Route 147 begins at the intersection of Springfield Street and Mill Street in Agawam, where Springfield Street bears northeast and Mill Street begins east. The route continues northeast for two miles (3 km) then turns east at the intersection with North Street. Route 147 follows Springfield Street to an intersection with Route 75/Suffield Street and Route 159/Main Street. Route 75 and Route 159 both are continuations of Connecticut routes having the same number that enter Massachusetts four miles (6 km) to the south. At the intersection, Route 147 takes a left turn onto the Anne Sullivan bridge over the Westfield River and enters West Springfield.

Congratulations to the VDA Logistics Award winner!
Bosch was presented with the VDA Logistics Award 2014 by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA).
Robert BOSCH GmbH received the award for fully digitalizing the physical commodity flows along supply chains, something which allows for cross-company data exchange in real time. This standardized data exchange, which has been consistently implemented for the first time at Bosch, supports - in particular - process control and thus optimizes product and supply networks in the automotive industry in a holistic manner.
The virtual mapping of the supply chains is based on the results of the RAN research project (RFID-based Automotive Network). In this pilot application, Bosch was able to increase the logistics efficiency by around 10%! For Dr. Stefan Asenkerschbaumer, Deputy Chairman of the Bosch Board of Management, changes to industrial production - also known under the keyword "Industry 4.0", are thus well underway.
We would like to take the opportunity to congratulate Bosch again on being this year's winner of the VDA Logistics Award and we are delighted that MHP will play a role, with its expertise, in the further development of the RFID@Bosch Competence Center.

Compound four-part geometric chuck, by Holtzapffel and Co. with change wheels and accessories, in two mahogany cases; also special stand for operating, with fifteen designs drawn by the pen
Compound four-part geometric chuck by Holtzapffel and Co, with change wheels and accessories. The Geometric Chuck was invented by J H Ibbetson in the early 19th century for the purpose of producing intricate patterns. Generally used on lathes for ornamental turning, this is the only known surviving example of a four stage chuck. The movement of each stage is defined both by its speed of rotation and by the amount the centre is offset compared with the stage below. These two factors give each stage an epicycloidal motion which is superimposed upon the movement imparted from lower stages.

This cake sounds so fresh and zingy, I had to try it. I love the combination of coconut and lime! I adapted the recipe from Cookie’s Cakes and Bakes here, with the lime drizzle omitted and the method adapted to the slow cooker.
The slow cooker coconut and lime cake came out lovely and moist, I would increase the lime zest next time, to make sure the flavour comes through well, and add a bit of lime juice as well.
- 175 g unsalted butter
- 175 g caster sugar
- Zest of 1 lime
- 3 eggs
- 50 g desiccated coconut
- 175 g self-raising flour
1. Grease and line your slow cooker crock, then beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, in a large bowl.
2. Mix in the lime zest.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Beat well after each addition.
4. Stir in the coconut.
5. Sift in the flour and fold in.
6. Pour into your greased, lined slow cooker bowl.
7. Cook on high for 3 hrs,or until a skewer or toothpick comes out clean.

Chandigarh: The remark is certainly insensitive and coming from someone who has been the president of the BJP’s Kisan Morcha twice it’s deeply troubling. At a time when the country is in the midst of an agrarian crisis, which has led to a spate of suicides in the farming community, Haryana Agriculture Minister OP Dhankar has triggered a controversy by saying farmers who kill themselves are cowards and criminals. The insensitive remark of the Haryana minister has the opposition up in arms.
“Suicide is a crime as per the Indian laws. The government could not support farmers who commit suicide as they were criminals under the law,” said Dhankar, adding “Those who commit suicide are running away from their responsibilities and leaving their families and children with liabilities.” Ironically, it is the same person who used to condemn the UPA government earlier for not taking care of the farmers in the country who were committing suicide.
Addressing a press conference in Chandigarh on Tuesday, Dhankar remarked, “Why should the Haryana government help them? The government cannot support those farmers who commit suicide,” he said. His remark has rubbed salt on the wounds of the distressed farmers reeling under adverse weather conditions in North India. In the last one and a half months around 30 farmers in Haryana have died as a result of the damage suffered by their standing crops because of frequent untimely rains and hailstorms.
While seven farmers committed suicide in Haryana, the rest died of shock and trauma arising out of their destroyed crops.
The Agriculture minister made it clear that Haryana government will not help families of those farmers and agricultural labourers who have committed suicide because the administration was not for helping people who indulged in wrong deeds.
BJP government’s Health minister in Haryana, Anil Vij has also criticised the spate of suicides of farmers in the country. “I and the entire Haryana government are with the farmers. The farmers should never resort to such dastardly act as suicide. Haryana government will not neglect its duties and responsibilities towards the farming community,” he said.
Earlier both Dhankar and Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had denied reports that any farmer in the state had committed suicide. According to the BJP leaders there could have been other reasons for the farmers taking their lives and not necessarily their failed crops. Dhankar had said the farmers of Haryana were tough and courageous and would not end their lives because of crop damage. “Haryana ka kisan dhadha hai, woh suicide nahi karega (Haryana farmer is tough and he would not commit suicide),” he had said on an earlier occasion.
Leader of Opposition in Haryana, Abhey Singh Chautala hit out at Dhankar’s remarks. “His statement shows that he is not at all a farmer. When any farmer looks at his destroyed crops it seems to him as if he has lost everything in the world. In such a shocked mental state, he even takes the drastic step of committing suicide. How can Dhankar issue such a remark,’’ he wondered.
Talking to Firstpost, Congress leader Pawan Jain condemned Dhankar’s statement. “This is the most insensitive remark by any leader towards the hapless farmers of the country. The distressed farmers who have been ruined because of the inclement weather are being forced to commit suicide, while BJP leaders are making a mockery of them.”
Haryana Congress spokesman, Rann Singh Mann flayed Dhankar’s statement. “This is an insult to the entire farming community in the country. It just proves that the BJP does not like the farmers and all their talk of taking care of farmer’s interest is nothing but a sham. Instead of putting balm on the wounds of the hurt farmers, the BJP is rubbing salt on them,’’ Mann said.
“Only a person who has lost all hopes in life will take such a drastic step. It is the government’s duty and responsibility to help the farmers. Such insensitive remark exposes the real face of the BJP which poses to be the champion of farmers,’’ he added.
Social activist Khushwant Singh from Sonepat district said unseasonal rains and hailstorms this year in different states of North India have ruined crops standing on several thousand acres of land leading to great distress and financial trouble for lakhs of farmers. Many farmers and agricultural labourers have committed suicide while others are burdened with huge loans that they are unable to pay due to crop loss. The government should provide adequate help to them to make them come out of this crisis.
Meanwhile Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, has announced compensation of Rs 1,092 crore to farmers affected by inclement weather conditions in Haryana. The compensation will be disbursed by 15 May. Of the total amount, Rs 720 crore will be provided by the Centre while rest will be provided by the state government, said Khattar.

Bryant Releases Plan to Spend Oil Spill Money
Gov. Phil Bryant's plan for restoring Mississippi's coastal areas with funds from the BP oil spill focuses on workforce training and programs to bring more high-tech communications and better transportation services to the region.

I hink callig their plan for "better transportation services" is misleading... they are only planning to give MDOT more contracts... more road repairs and improvements... I saw nothing about a plan to create more "services" like public transit to more areas, or commuter train from New Orleans to Pensacola that we could really use.
AS usual, MDOT gets the lion's share of disaster funding to keep our politicians cronies and relatives happy.
Yes, I'm bitter and skeptical.

In this article, we will delve into the intriguing question: Can dogs eat Sushi? Sushi is a popular delicacy enjoyed by many humans, but is it safe for our furry friends? We’ll delve into the risks, ingredients, and alternatives, ensuring that you make informed decisions about your dog’s diet.
Can Dogs Eat Sushi?
Let’s address this question directly. Yes, dogs can technically eat Sushi, but it’s important to exercise caution. Sushi comprises various ingredients, some of which can be harmful to dogs if consumed excessively.
Risks of Feeding Sushi to Dogs
Feeding your dog sushi poses certain risks. Sushi often contains raw fish, which can lead to various health issues. Raw fish can harbor parasites and bacteria, and if dogs ingest it, they may experience digestive problems like vomiting and diarrhea. In extreme instances, it can result in salmon poisoning disease, which can be deadly if not treated promptly.
Sushi Ingredients Harmful to Dogs
Some ingredients commonly found in Sushi are toxic to dogs. For instance, avocado, which is often used in sushi rolls, contains a substance called persin that can be harmful to dogs. Furthermore, soy sauce, while not poisonous, contains high levels of sodium and can potentially cause salt poisoning in dogs if ingested excessively.
Moderation is Key
If you decide to share a small piece of Sushi with your dog, always do so in moderation. Make sure the Sushi does not contain any harmful ingredients, and avoid any spicy or seasoned rolls that might irritate your dog’s stomach.
Safe Alternatives for Dogs
While Sushi may not be the best option for your canine companion, there are safer alternatives to treat your dog. Opt for plain, cooked fish or lean proteins like chicken, as long as they are free of seasonings and bones.
Signs of Sushi Allergies in Dogs
Just like humans, dogs can have allergies. If you feed your dog sushi and notice symptoms like itching, hives, swelling, or digestive distress, your dog might be allergic to one of the ingredients in the Sushi.
What to Do If Your Dog Eats Sushi
If your dog accidentally gets ahold of Sushi, monitor their behavior and health closely. If you observe any negative reactions, it’s essential to get in touch with your veterinarian to make sure your dog is safe.
In conclusion, while dogs can technically eat Sushi, it’s not recommended due to the potential risks associated with various ingredients. If you want to treat your furry friend, opt for safer alternatives and always practice moderation when sharing your food with your dog.
FAQs about Dogs and Sushi
What kind of Sushi can dogs eat?
Dogs can eat plain, cooked Sushi that does not contain harmful ingredients. Avoid Sushi with seasonings, spices, or potentially toxic components.
Is sushi fish good for dogs?
Sushi fish can be beneficial for dogs in moderation. Fish provides essential omega-3 fatty acids, but it should be cooked and free from bones or additives.
Can dogs eat raw tuna sushi?
It’s not advisable to feed dogs raw tuna sushi. Raw fish, including tuna, can carry parasites and bacteria that may harm your dog’s health.
Do dogs like Sushi?
Dogs have varying tastes, and some may enjoy the taste of Sushi, while others might not. However, it’s essential to prioritize their safety and health when considering what to feed them.
Can my dog eat raw salmon?
Feeding your dog raw salmon is not recommended. Raw salmon can contain parasites and bacteria, including salmon poisoning disease, which can be fatal to dogs.
Can dogs have raw fish?
It is generally advised to avoid giving raw fish to dogs due to the potential health risks associated with parasites and bacteria. Cooking the fish can make it a safer option for your dog.
What if I accidentally gave my dog raw salmon?
If your dog accidentally consumes raw salmon, monitor their health closely. If you notice any adverse reactions, such as vomiting or diarrhea, contact your veterinarian promptly.
Can dogs eat cheese?
Dogs can eat cheese in moderation. It can be a tasty treat for many dogs, but some may be lactose intolerant, so watch for any digestive issues.
Can dogs eat raw eggs?
Feeding dogs raw eggs is not recommended, as they can contain bacteria like Salmonella. It’s safer to cook eggs before giving them to your dog to eliminate any potential health risks.
It’s always recommended to consult with your veterinarian before introducing new foods to your dog’s diet to ensure their safety and well-being.
Can dogs eat cooked Sushi?
Yes, plain, cooked Sushi without any harmful ingredients can be safe for dogs in moderation.
Are all sushi ingredients harmful to dogs?
No, not all sushi ingredients are harmful, but some, like avocado and excessive sodium, can be problematic.
What should I do if my dog eats Sushi and shows signs of distress?
If your dog shows adverse reactions after consuming Sushi, please contact your veterinarian right away.
Can dogs eat sushi rice?
Plain sushi rice without any seasonings or additives can be safe for dogs in small quantities.
Are there any sushi-like treats specifically designed for dogs?
Yes, there are dog-friendly sushi treats available that are safe and healthy for your pet.
This article provides you with insights into whether dogs can eat Sushi, highlighting the potential risks and safer alternatives. Remember that the well-being of your furry friend should always be a top priority.

As its title indicates, Posing Modernity: The Black Model from Manet and Matisse to Today at the Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Art Gallery of Columbia University, presents a three-stage narrative of modernity, beginning with Édouard Manet’s “Olympia” (1865, not on view here), which famously shows a white woman accompanied by a black servant; on to works of Henri Matisse depicting black models; and, more recently, images of black women by a number of African-American female and male artists, some of them redoing “Olympia.”
The show, closely hung, for there’s a lot to see, thus retells the familiar story of Franco-American modernism in a suggestive, relatively original way. Its curator, Denise Murrell, opens her catalogue essay with a critical / historical perspective. In the 1980s, T. J. Clark decisively reoriented commentary on Impressionism by focusing on its social history. To correctly understand “Olympia,” he argued, requires taking account of class, but not necessarily gender or race; he thus had much to say about the white woman in Manet’s painting, but almost nothing about the black servant.
Although many Salon artists at the time were depicting female nudes, Clark argued, only this picture was shocking because it explicitly showed prostitution. That account, Murrell rightly observes, although correct as far as it goes, fails entirely to consider one of the two figures in the picture. In fairness to Clark, it’s true that while we know something about Victoria Meuren, the model for Olympia, we have only the first name, Laure, of the model for her black companion.
But we do know that on his youthful trip to Brazil, Manet was shocked, so he said in his correspondence, by the sight of black women in a slave market. Slavery was abolished in France in 1848, when Manet was a teenager, making Laure a member of the new black Parisian community.
“Olympia” will appear in the show’s Parisian iteration, but here in New York we do see other works by Manet of black women, including a portrait of Laure and most notably his “Baudelaire’s Mistress (Portrait of Jeanne Duval)” (1862). And there are photographs by Fèlix Nadar alongside those of unknown photographers; a marvelous sculpture from the workshop of Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux, “The black woman (Why born a slave?)” (1872); and Frédéric Bazille’s “Black woman with peonies” (1870). Once you start looking for them, it seems, you will find a number of black women in French artworks from this period.
In “Olympia,” Manet set his black model in a dignified but subservient position. Then in the 20th century, Matisse first painted black female models in North Africa, followed by “Aïcha and Loretta” (1917), in which a black woman and a white woman sit side by side, the arm of the latter draped over the shoulders of the former; in 1930, he was inspired by a black play he saw in Harlem; and in Nice after World War II he employed three black women as models for his illustrations of Baudelaire’s Les fleurs du mal.
We know something about these women. Two of them, Carmen Lahens and Elvire Josephine Van Hyfte, died only recently and the third, Catherine Dubois, born in 1935 in Paris, and still alive, has recorded her vivid memories of sitting for Matisse socializing with him and her mother in Paris. Close to the end of his career, Matisse painted several splendid celebratory images of Van Hyfte, including “Woman in white” (1946) and Asia (1946).
Recently a number of female and male black artists, many American, some French, have radically deconstructed the traditional schema of the active male artist depicting a passive female model, questioning its assumptions about gender and race. And so the most interesting part of the exhibition is this third part, the presentation of the black modernists, for here we enter relatively unfamiliar territory.
We see very varied portraits of black women, including Norman Lewis’s confident-looking “Black Girl” (1936); William H. Johnson’s boldly painted “Portrait of a Woman with Blue and White Striped Blouse” (1940-42); and Romare Bearden’s Patchwork Quilt (1970), which depicts a black odalisque, lying face-down.
And, in radical revisions of early modernist interpretations, Faith Ringgold’s “Matisse’s Model (The French Collection, Part 1: #5)” (1991) shows Matisse, a black odalisque, and in the decorative background, an image of Matisse’s “The Dance” (1910); Ellen Gallagher’s “Odalisque (Self-Portrait with Freud as Matisse)” (2013) is a slide projection with Freud as the artist drawing a clothed Gallagher; and Mickalene Thomas’s “Marie: Nude black woman lying on a couch)” (2012) sets the black model in a contemporary interior filled with decorative fabrics. Finally, in Awoi Erizku’s “Elsa “(2013), a large color photograph of a sex worker, we return to Manet’s original conception, but now with a nude black woman alone in a spare room.
This exhibition reveals something about the apparent limitations and ultimate strengths of a social history of art. Compared with literature, visual art taken just by itself generally offers a relatively thin record of cultural history. To comprehend the politics of race (and gender) in France, you need to supplement the art of Manet and Matisse with historical research. (We do know, however, all too much about Baudelaire’s essentially unedifying political ideas.)
Here, then, the lavish exhibition catalogue, which fills in a great deal of useful background information about the relevant history, is essential. At its conclusion, Murrell speaks of “the recuperation of lost or marginalized histories” as defining “the present globalized moment.” That is exactly what this exhibition accomplishes, and that’s why her show speaks to our pressing contemporary political concerns.
Just as the American Republic prospered by extending its franchise to African-Americans and women, transforming in stages its ruling institutions, so the modernist artistic tradition of Manet and Matisse has developed and survived by being supple enough to critique and reject its sexist and racist elements, and thus make space for those thus far excluded.
Posing Modernity: The Black Model from Manet and Matisse to Today continues at the Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Art Gallery, Columbia University (615 West 129th Street, Upper West Side, Manhattan) through February 10, 2019. The exhibition was curated by Denise Murrell, Ph.D., Ford Foundation Postdoctoral Research Scholar, Wallach Art Gallery at Columbia University.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed concern other the defection of some top echelon of the party in Oyo State to the All Progressive Congress (APC), warning that they would regret the defection.
The former governor of Oyo state, Chief Adebayo Alao-Akala and the governorship candidate of PDP in the state in the 2015 general election, Senator Teslim Folarin at the weekend dumped the PDP and moved to APC in a very elaborate way as the event was attended by APC national leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and governors of Oyo, Osun and Ondo, Mr Isiaka Ajimobi, Mr Rauf Aregbesola and Mr Rotimi Akeredolu.
Reacting to the development, the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of PDP, Prince Diran Odeyemi in a press statement made available to Daily Trust in Osogbo yesterday declared that both Akala and Folarin would have realised their full potentials as politicians, if they had remained in PDP.
According to him, “It is a political miscalculation if our respected leaders are going to where they did not belong and could not learn from the experiences of ex-governor Rasheed Ladoja, Professor Taoheed Adedoja and other APC big wigs in Oyo State who recently retraced their ways back to PDP after being used and dumped by APC.”
The statement reads further: “Going by the experiences of many political heavyweights that have left its fold to join APC in the past, Akala and Folarin’s decision to join the party was nothing but a misstep, especially now that majority of Nigerians are waiting on the PDP to rescue them from the national calamity that befalls the nation owing to lack of capacity by the federal government to deal with myriad of challenges facing the country.”
It added that “many politicians that left PDP for APC before 2015 general election are regretting their actions presently because the party demeaned them after riding on their support to secure power. Those still remaining in their fold are never considered as stakeholders in APC-led federal government.”
Describing Akala and Folarin as PDP gifts to Nigerian, Odeyemi said “the two politicians have all to lose, and nothing to gain from the fast sinking ship of APC, adding that they cannot enjoy the kind of influence and privileges they had in PDP.
According to him, “Ex vice president Atiku Abubakar, Chief Rasidi Ladoja and a host of others have taken the route both Chief Akala and Senator Folarin set to thread and returned to PDP after being used and treated poorly by the APC.
“That is why we are calling on Akala and Folarin both of who are PDP gifts to Nigerians to have a rethink after Saturday’s show-off and make their way back to PDP fold where they can realise their full potentials especially now that Nigerians are waiting on our party to rescue them from the national calamity and lack of capacity APC had displayed at the centre.”
“All elephants that have left PDP in the past have been made ants by APC and we don’t want both Akala and Folarin to experience same thing. That is why we are calling on them to have a rethink,” Odeyemi said.

The relationship between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and the phenomenon of inattentional blindness has received little empirical attention, with only a single published study on the topic. The purpose of the present study was to investigate individual differences in ADHD symptom severity in a non-clinical, undergraduate sample as they relate to susceptibility to inattentional blindness. Because research conducted in an individual differences framework requires the use of reliable measurement instruments, the present study also set out to develop and pilot a task that could induce inattentional blindness repeatedly and reliably in the same participants. The results showed that a) the measure of noticing in the repeat inattentional blindness task had unacceptable internal consistency reliability for these purposes, despite this task inducing inattentional blindness multiple times in the same participants, as well as performance on the primary counting task showing good reliability; b) ADHD symptoms were not consistently associated with noticing on any task, and when they were the association was negative; c) ADHD symptoms predicted primary object tracking task performance on a single-trial video-based IB task, but not the repeat IB task; and d) there was no interaction between ADHD symptoms and noticing when predicting task performance. I also present incidental findings that depression symptoms and spontaneous mind wandering were associated with performance. Poor psychometric properties of the repeat IB task, potential pandemic-related cohort effects, and other issues with data collection limit the ability to generalize these results beyond this sample. Despite this, these findings have implications for research on individual differences research in inattentional blindness and suggest that future research should incorporate both state and trait-based measures of mind wandering, depression, and ADHD symptoms to disentangle their roles in the phenomenon.

Weekly music and movement classes for toddlers.
Rock n Roll is a high-energy and stimulating music and movement class for toddlers and their grown-up. Each weekly class session contains a variety of music and movement based activities with age-appropriate themes and musical selections. Children will experience the developmental benefits of music in a setting that makes it fun for them as well as for mom, dad or caregiver!
Moving to Music
Whether they're a buzzing bee or a shooting rock star, your toddler will learn to listen and move to music, developing their locomotor skills and active listening capabilities. Babies will enjoy moving and grooving with their caregiver in a sensory-rich environment!
Sing-along songs are a perfect way to incorporate musical routines into class and at home! Whether it's singing the 'clean up song' after instrument exploration or helping clean up the toys back at home, children from a very early age respond positively to music and song in their daily routines.
Using age-appropriate instruments, such as shakers and hand-bells, babies and toddlers will enjoy exploring exciting new sounds and developing their active listening skills!
Active Listening/Story Time
For each class, a different theme-related story will be told, offering opportunities for movement and memory-based activities related to the story/theme.
Group dances and musical activities are great ways to improve coordination, boost confidence, and build life-long friendships!
All activities include appropriate movement options for toddlers and caregiver/babies.
Benefits of Music
- Challenges the brain in new ways
- New motor skills must be learned and coordinated
- Profound and seemingly permanent changes in the brain structure
Music & Mathematics
- Patterns of chords, notes and key changes
- Counting of beats, rests & how long to hold notes

- Sequences called intervals are the differences between notes
- Ratios, proportions and equivalent fractions understanding are required to read music
Music & Reading
- Strong association between music instruction & reading ability
- Positive transfer occurs between language and reading
- More music skills result in greater degree of phonological awareness
- Music perception taps and enhances auditory areas

Tuesday Photo Prompt Posted on September 9, 2014 by melindajmoore I’d still like Julie’s wonderful photographs to be a part of the blog even though I stopped Photo Flare. She’s agreed to allow me to show off her pictures on Tuesdays. I hope they inspire some stories!
I’ll take that as a sign.
My new WIP touches on the White Shell Woman, a native american spirit of the East and represented by White. I am writing up her section right now.
Sweet! I love serendipity
Beautiful picture. I love all the detail. Thanks for sharing!

(CNN) - Former Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann on Tuesday said it's time for the party to rally behind one presidential nominee.
"At this point, we would be better off if we could unify around a candidate, whoever that candidate may be," Bachmann said on CNN's "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer." "I will back whoever the people choose. But I think it's important for us to unify and unify quickly."
- Follow the Ticker on Twitter: @PoliticalTicker
Bachmann, who ended her presidential bid in January after a disappointing finish in the Iowa caucuses, described the ongoing Republican nominating process as "fruitful" but argued it was creating division within the GOP.
Her comments came the same day that Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney compete as the two frontrunners in Illinois' presidential primary, a contest with 54 delegates at stake.
"We have a lot of factions now because of the candidates that are dueling it out," she said. " At a certain point, we do need to come together and I will be happy to back whoever our nominee is. And I may do that even before the convention, but I want my voice to be a unifying voice to pull all factions of the party together."
Bachmann is now running for re-election to keep her House seat representing Minnesota's 6th Congressional District, despite new redistricting lines that have placed her home town of Stillwater in a new district.
Asked Tuesday when exactly she plans on making her endorsement, the congresswoman gave no firm date for an announcement.
"I will when it looks the most opportune time to draw our party together and expand to get crucial independents and Democrats we need to be able to win in November," she said.

Rich Mix has a whole host of good things going on this weekend. It plays host to Our Brick Lane, until Thursday 2nd February. This is a superb exhibition and oral history project that recorded, documented and preserved the diverse and unique heritage of Brick Lane – a traditional host for global diasporas entering the metropolis.

We laid out to determine if this appealing dish solution can deliver on its promise.
What is CookUnity?
CookUnity was established in 2015 by Mateo Marietti, who created the idea after becoming distressed with the absence of selections for meal distribution services offered on the marketplace. Clients seemed to be forced to select between inexpensive prices as well as a sufficient choice on a regular basis, as well as although all choices were handy, none stood out as particularly noteworthy.

Premium delicacies are available at a small cost thanks to the solution, which attaches expert cooks with daily customers. CookUnity advertises itself as being a chef-driven facility, offering customized recipes that differ once a week as well as are generated fresh using products bought from neighborhood and also lasting sources.

Although the dishes offered are not tailored, the icons on top of the food selection web page aid you in customizing to your particular demands by allowing you to pick from low sodium, vegan, paleo, and also gluten-free options, to name a few instances of what is available.
Types of Food They Offer.
I’ve located that CookUnity dishes tend to be much more high-end than many of the various other pre-made meal delivery services I’ve attempted in the past. These aren’t straightforward meat and also veggie meals, they’re crafted to be something you’re most likely to see at a wonderful dining establishment.
Right here are some instances of meals we’ve seen on the food selection in the past to give you an idea of what you can anticipate.
- Roasted Salmon over Sautéed Spinach and also Broccoli.
- Delicata Squash Stuffed with Sprouted Black Lentils.
- Lamb Kebab Turmeric Hummus Roasted Sweet Potatoes.
- Seared Steak with Brussels Sprouts and Horseradish Cream Sauce.
As you can see, these are some quite beautiful, yet well balanced, meals. They don’t stop there. You can likewise add appetisers, snacks, breakfast, kitchen products, and also also drinks to your box. This essentially covers all your food requires for the week, making grocery store shopping and also food preparation outdated!
Who is CookUnity good for?
Because this meal shipment attire has such a wide range of options, I ‘d this solution is among the very best for somebody with a curious palate and also suches as to try brand-new meals. The food is all over the map, quite literally, with loads of world foods represented, but there is uniformity in high quality and all of the recipes I tried went to the very least solid or much better.
There are a lot of healthy, low-carb, vegan and also paleo alternatives so this is an excellent dish delivery solution if you’re attempting to adhere to a particular eating plan.
CookUnity likewise a terrific option if you’re large into the celeb chef scene and also want to brag to your close friends that you had Jean-Georges’ pizza for dinner last evening. As well as indeed, the French-born, James Beard Award-winning cook really has a pizza dish on the CookUnity menu. Go figure.
Who is CookUnity not as good for?
It’s most likely not a terrific selection for family members considering that the sections aren’t substantial as well as points would certainly get costly if you were getting for three or 4 people. It’s likewise not ideal if you have an extremely unforeseeable timetable because I would not consider the freshly prepared food to be wonderful for freezing as well as it is certainly best consumed a couple of days after distribution.
The last verdict on CookUnity.
I’ll admit I was pleasantly surprised by the high hit price of this meal service. When I saw the number of literal cooks remained in the cooking area using the lots of chefs they’ve culled dishes from, I was worried the service itself would be inconsistent. In practice, each meal was well prepared with excellent flavor as well as I didn’t experience a single genuine dud. The cod was the only meal I ‘d wanted had been a bigger portion however total each lunch or dinner was pleasing.
One of the most amazing feature of CookUnity is the sheer volume of dish alternatives you can select from, all stemming from chefs of various backgrounds, cooking designs and degrees of fame. As a bona fide dining establishment addict, I would think about CookUnity not only as a delicious way to maintain myself fed without having to cook, but likewise as a fun way to find out about brand-new cook characters and also dining establishments for the next time I’m traveling to a brand-new city or looking for a location to eat in restaurants locally.

Take note that cloves are one of the most soothing foods that can be used to treat a toothache. Cloves contain large amounts of manganese, vitamins C and K, omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, calcium and magnesium.
Cloves possess anti-inflammatory properties and have been utilized in managing tooth pain, tooth decay and even intestinal parasites. It is also used as a carminative or substance that boosts the stomach acid and improves the passage via the intestinal tract.
Other foods and beverages that can provide a soothing effect on a toothache and managing tooth decay include green tea and cod liver oil. In addition, those that contain garlic, salt water and yogurt can be used as well. It is best to gargle with salt water since it can provide immediate relief for a toothache and must be done every 1-2 hours to reduce the level of pain.
Considerations to bear in mind
A toothache is an indication that a degenerative process is taking place in the mouth. With this in mind, it is vital to consult a dentist. Once an individual develops the distinctive signs and symptoms of tooth decay, set an appointment with a dentist for thorough diagnosis and treatment. Proper dietary changes are vital as part of the treatment, but further studies might be needed to support the use of certain foods.

Ontario poison centre sees rise in calls related to mushroom foraging
The Ontario Poison Centre says it's seeing a rise in calls related to mushroom foraging, including some where people had to be hospitalized after eating wild mushrooms.
The centre says it received nearly twice as many calls related to mushroom exposure in September compared with the same month last year - 72 up from 38.
It says that while foraging for mushrooms is gaining popularity as an outdoor activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, those with limited experience shouldn't take the risk.
The centre says mistaking poisonous mushrooms for edible ones could cause serious consequences.
It says some symptoms can be mild, such as nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, but eating poisonous mushrooms can also cause liver failure, seizures and comas.
Severe symptoms can also take a few days to appear.

A GIRL of three has been left paralysed from the shoulders down after suffering a massive stroke.
Little Mikka Davies had been a healthy toddler until she was suddenly struck down as she lay on a sofa.
After four weeks of hospital tests, mum Rachel, 26, and partner Richard Walmsley, 28, who also have a four-month-old son Blake, were given the diagnosis.
Rachel, of Barnsley, South Yorks, said: “It’s so tragic, she is only a little girl and you just don’t think anyone so young would suffer a stroke. When the hospital confirmed it we were shattered.”
Mikka has regained slight movement in her right arm and left thumb but is otherwise paralysed and has to wear a body support.
She will go to the specialist spinal unit at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, Bucks.
Rachel said: “We don’t know if she will walk again, they are just going to do the best they can.”

When you come to us, we keep you involved at every opportunity.
For your individual items, we consider the function, size, how it will fit in with its intended environment.
When designing and manufacturing our batch produced items, the main interest is the function and the ergonomics. Because if it doesn't work or fit with you, well, what's the point?
Our aim is to offer our customers a unique range of furniture which will stand out in any home or garden
I spent my childhood watching my father creating all sorts of items around our home. He was a welder and could create in almost any material he was given.
From school through to University I gravitated towards manufacture , studying Design and Technology.
We have a few options for any customers and we aim to please on each one.
During a week we set time aside for creation of a small number of similar items, this is known as batch production. These items are usually aimed at accenting your home in the form of candle holders, blackboards, shelving and organisers, and keyring to name a few.
Every now and again inspiration hits for a product. These ideas are usually tested with prototyping. Rather than working on each individual part we prefer to create full units.
Sometimes we have the opportunity to take existing products and revamp them through Up-Cycling. Up-Cycling is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products of better quality or for better environmental value.
Bespoke Commission Orders
We love when customers come to us with a specific idea they have, whether art work, furniture, present (for any occasion), or storage. This is a short list of examples, but if you have something you wish to be made. Contact us and we will aim to work to your specifications and budget.
As mentioned before Up-Cycling is the process of transforming existing items. This has been done by us with furniture, storage, and more. We can refinish, colour, stain, reimagine, or découpage (which is refinishing surfaces by pasting items to them and sealing them in.).
We can do this with your existing furniture or furniture bought from retailers like IKEA and Wilkos for example. We can refinish for any room, from living rooms to your childs bedroom matching a theme.
Recently I have designed a small range of consumable products. The first is a range of Wood Treatments, a Wood Butter and a Wood Conditioner. They can both be used on wood kitchen utensils safely as well as a great finisher for any home projects. Whether home craft carpentry or refinishing a piece of furniture.
The second is an eco firefighter I call Wood Cakes due to the way I make them (also not the edible kind). They are made from my waste products and repurposed to be useful, rather than being thrown away and ending up in a land fill somewhere. Once lit, they can burn for up to 5 minutes each so are a great way to start your home fire or BBQ.

As we inch closer to the 2016 elections, polls suggest the majority of voters are supporting Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump. These voters seem either to agree with her views regarding allowing illegal immigrants into the country, viewing them no differently from legal immigrants and going as far as to recruit their support and influence with their legal family and friends.
They apparently also see the Second Amendment as an antiquated part of the Constitution, which Clinton shows through her belief that shooting victims should be able to sue the manufacturer of any guns used in the shooting, a ridiculous notion.
These voters are not willing to hold their candidate to standards that would have avoided all of the email scandals and would have not allowed her to pass the buck on Benghazi, which was then compounded by the administration lying about the cause of it to cover up the original blunder.
Yes, the majority of these voters will choose to overlook the failed actions of this career politician, but I will instead overlook the vulgar way Trump expresses himself and support his anti-Clinton policies.
