Nigeria’s vice president, Yemi Osinbajo, has denied ownership of a 21-storey building in Ikoyi, Lagos State, which collapsed on Monday killing at least 40 people so far, describing his alleged link to the property as sheer wickedness.
Osinbajo’s reaction comes amid suggestions that he has a stake in the collapsed building, and may have influenced the Lagos State government to allow work to continue on the building even when it did not pass stress test.
The vice president who denied the allegations in a statement issued by his spokesman, Mr. Laolu Akande in Abuja on Friday, said emphasized that he has no interest whatsoever, and has never had any interest, either legally or beneficially, in the land, the collapsed building or development.
Osinbajo condoled with the families and relatives of all those who have died, those injured or affected in the collapse.
The Vice President frowned at the publication by a well-known online media outfit that had linked him to the collapsed building.
The online media outfit had in its publication claimed that the Vice President owns the land upon which the collapsed building in Ikoyi stood, while also alleging that he bought the said land from Chief Michael Ade-Ojo, Chairman of Elizade Motors.
“Let it be made clear that Prof. Yemi Osinbajo does not own and has never owned the said land,” Osinbajo said in the statement.
“He has also never been involved, in any shape or form, in the development of this or any other land since he became Vice President.
“At no time whatsoever did the VP buy this or any other piece of land from Chief Michael Ade-Ojo, or entered into any transaction for the sale of that land or any other piece of land from Chief Ade-Ojo or anyone for that matter.
“All property and assets owned by the Vice President have been publicly declared.
“Also, the Vice President has never spoken to the Governor of Lagos State or any other official of the State Government regarding the unsealing of the said building on Gerrard Road, Ikoyi, which subsequently collapsed.
“He has, indeed, never acted to influence any other regulatory action on the collapsed building, or any other building for that matter, in Lagos State.
“The Vice President restates categorically that he has no interest whatsoever, and has never had any interest, either legally or beneficially, in the land, the building or development.
“The wickedness and viciousness of a lie that seeks to utilize a tragedy where so many people have lost their lives, even as rescue efforts are ongoing, and in wanton disregard to the feelings and untold grief of their loved ones for political gain, reveals a dangerous desperation, as well as the heartlessness of the perpetrators of such despicable lies.”
He further said that the online medium was “undoubtedly well rewarded for the criminal and inhumane conduct. Typical of a hatchet job and deliberately irresponsible journalism, the publication was not signed by anyone.
“The Vice President has referred this disgraceful publication to his lawyers for prompt legal action.”
Ade-Ojo, denies selling collapsed building land to Osinbajo
Meanwhile, the founder of Elizade Motors and Elizade University, Chief Michael Ade-Ojo, has denied selling the said land to Osinbajo.
Ade-Ojo in a statement issued and personally signed by him on Thursday, stated that he owns the property next to the collapsed building, adding that he has not sold it and does not intend to sell it to anyone.
“It has come to my attention that a publication by the online news website, Sahara Reporters is in circulation, claiming that I owned the land on which the high-rise building in Ikoyi that collapsed earlier this week was built,” he said.
“The story titled ‘Photo Proof: Osinbajo bought the Ikoyi collapsed building’ published on November 4, 2021, also claimed that I sold the land to the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo shortly after he became vice president.
“Both claims are outright falsehoods. I hereby state that I do not own and never held title to the said property.
“In addition, I did not sell any property to the vice president at any time whatsoever.
“To be clear, I own a property next to the said building, which I have not sold and do not intend to sell to anyone


Roddy Doyle’s Charlie Savage collects a whole year’s worth of hilarious, self-effacing and often poignant anecdotes, first published in the Irish Independent, about a middle-aged Dubliner reconciling with his own mortality, and the irrefutable reality of having more past than future. Or, as Charlie’s daughter puts it, “in the prime of your decline.”
Although Charlie Savage touches on the ‘cruelty’ of ageing, it’s ultimately a celebration of life; how joy can be plucked from the tiniest, unlikeliest moments; how laughter can be ignited in even the worst circumstances; and how the circle of life is something to be celebrated. We gradually lose the vitality of youth, but what we gain is something grander; transcendental, almost.
Doyle’s writing is as sharp, earnest and disarming as ever. He’ll have you guffawing with laughter on one page, then wring your heart on another. The episodic format of Charlie Savage means it can be read in instalments, but if you’re like me, you’ll devour it in very few, and then struggle to fill the void that forms, with Charlie and his family and friends now missing from your life.

He’s earned it.
The San Jose Sharks defenseman is on pace for what would be the best statistical season of his NHL career and is among the early frontrunners for the Norris Trophy, the award he won in 2012 and 2015 when voted as the League’s top defenseman. The 32-year-old leads NHL defensemen with 32 points (11 goals, 21 assists) in 26 games and is on pace to finish with 100 points.
What’s been the key to his resurgence? Why has he been able to reach these heights again after struggling (at least by his standards) for the past several seasons?
When asked those questions by NHL.com while walking to the Sharks bus after a 3-1 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena on Wednesday, he broke into a wry smile.
“Because that’s me,” he said confidently. “Because this is the player I am. Because this is the way I play. Because it’s the way I should be playing.”
It’s the way we’ve all seen him play before, especially during his days with the Ottawa Senators. Karlsson played his first nine NHL seasons in Canada’s capital city, won the Norris Trophy twice and had an NHL career-high 82 points (16 goals, 66 assists) in 2015-16.
He’ll be back in Ottawa on Saturday when the Sharks play the Senators at Canadian Tire Centre (7 p.m. ET; SN1, CITY, TVAS2, NBCSCA, ESPN+, SN NOW), where he wowed fans so many times from 2009-2018.
“Physically, I’m in a good place where I think I can still do the things I did in my 20s,” Karlsson said.
It’s been a rocky journey back to this point due to a variety of injuries. When asked how he’s been able to overcome them, he chuckled.
“If I knew, I’d would have done it sooner,” he said. “I’ve been feeling good for a while now, and obviously it’s clicking now a little bit more.”
It’s about time, given what he’s been through.
Last season, he had surgery for a muscle tear in his forearm. That came on the heels of a broken thumb in 2020-2021.
In 2017, doctors removed part of his ankle and replaced it with an artificial tendon, a procedure that affected his skating. Keep in mind too that his Achilles tendon had been sliced by the skate of Matt Cooke of the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2013, an accident that left concerns about his ability to skate with the same fluidity again.
With Karlsson one season away from unrestricted free agency, the Senators traded him and forward Francis Perron to the Sharks on Sept. 13, 2018, for forwards Chris Tierney and Rudolfs Balcers, defenseman Dylan DeMelo, the rights to unsigned forward Joshua Norris, a first-round pick in the 2020 NHL Draft (forward Tim Stutzle), a second-round pick in the 2019 draft and two conditional draft picks.
He signed an eight-year contract with San Jose on June 17, 2019, but his first four seasons with the Sharks were plagued by injuries. Over his first four seasons, he’s missed 79 games, including 31 last season.
But now healthy, he’s on pace to become the first NHL defenseman to have 100 points in a season since Brian Leetch had 102 with the New York Rangers in 1991-92.
First-year Sharks coach David Quinn understands the beating Karlsson’s body has taken over the years but said he seems to be in prime health these days.
“I think Erik is in a different point in his career,” Quinn said. “He’s 32, and it’s been a frustrating three years for him for a variety of reasons.
“I had a good feeling coming into camp he was in a different mindset, namely because of his health. He was excited about the year, he was taking on new responsibilities, mainly for the way the roster has taken shape here the last three or four months. He’s embraced it, and you’re seeing a Norris Trophy-winning defenseman again.”
Sharks captain Logan Couture has been impressed by what he’s seen.
“Everyone gets injured in this game,” Couture said. “It’s a physical sport. It’s a grueling season.
“He’s worked extremely hard to get himself ready for this season. I don’t know if it’s revenge against anything. I think it’s just a proud player wanting to show himself and teammates that he can be a dominant player in the League, and that’s what he’s doing.”
With the Sharks (8-14-4) in full rebuild mode, first-year general manager Mike Grier has said he’ll listen to trade offers for Karlsson, who has four seasons remaining after this one on a contract that expires when he’s 37 and has a no-trade clause.
Karlsson said he’ll leave the business details to the front office. For the immediate future, he says he’s happy in San Jose. Either way, wherever he ends up playing, his legacy will be determined by his ability to stay healthy.
Can he do that for the remainder of his deal?
“If I had answers to those questions, it’s something that I would have done every year and every summer,” Karlsson said. “It’s a reaction sport. I find that the more you try to control it, the less you do.
“I had a good summer this year. I went back to Sweden, I got to see my family that I haven’t seen in a while. I got to bring my kids there.
“My life in general is just very good right now. I’m in a good routine. Maybe that’s done me good.”

The Vice Chief of the Kenya Defence Forces (VCDF) Lieutenant General Franklin Levi Mghalu on Friday, 19 February 2021 declared the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) nationwide recruitment exercise officially closed.
While addressing the press at the Defence Headquarters, the VCDF said that the recruitment exercise was successful where 150 General Service Officer (GSO) Cadets, 150 GSO Cadets undergraduate degree holders, 3,550 General Duty Recruits and 150 Defence Forces Constables were recruited across all the 47 counties.
He noted that the number of female recruits increased to 12 percent up from 11 percent the previous year as KDF continue championing for gender balance.
He said that GSO Cadets and GSO undergraduate degree holder Cadets will report for their training at the Kenya Military Academy in Lanet, Nakuru while the General Duty Recruits will report to Recruits Training School in Eldoret in batches at dates indicated on their calling letters.
“Those reporting to KMA and RTS are those who received official calling letters from Recruiting Officers at the advertised recruiting centers. Anybody presenting themselves with letters from any other sources will be arrested and prosecuted accordingly,” warned the VCDF.
He added that the names of successful Specialist Officer Cadets and Tradesmen/women will be published in the local dailies from 22 – 25 February with information on the interview centers.
“Successful Specialist Officer Cadets and Tradesmen/women will be notified when they will report at the Kenya Military Academy and Recruits Training School respectively at the interview centres. Successful Constables will report at Kahawa Garrison, Nairobi.” He added.
Lt Gen Mghalu said that all successful candidates will be expected to present original documents for further verification and that they will undergo medical examination in their respective training centers before and during the training period.
He said that oversight bodies were invited to observe and report on the conduct of the exercise nationwide, noting that 12 cases of malpractice among civilians and military personnel have so far been reported and remedial action is currently underway.
“To deter and mitigate corruption malpractices, KDF has continued to sensitize the public of conmen/women masquerading as military officers purporting to have influence or connections with KDF to sway the outcome. Corruption can only be defeated if, we do not give bribes, take bribes or ask for bribes,” he said.
Lt Gen Mghalu said that during the recruitment exercise, several candidates were turned away after toxicological tests showed they are under the influence of banned drugs and substances.
Presesent during the press conference were the Assistant Chief of Defence Forces Maj Gen Fatuma Ahmed, Chief of Personnel Brig Maroa Gati, Chief Recruiting Officer Brig Peter Muteti, among other senior military officers.

Turmeric Ginger Tea Ganache Bar
Out of stock
Beautifully Balanced Dark Chocolate with the earthiness of turmeric and spice of ginger. For master chocolatier, Mr. Josh Needleman, this is his first new creation in over two years since the pandemic began. What a treat this is.
Ingredients: Dark Chocolate (cocoa beans, sugar, cocoa butter, soy lecithin, vanilla extract), Fresh Local Cream & Butter, Honey, Turmeric Ginger Tea, Black Pepper and Sea Salt.
Escape Into Chocolate
Serious chocolate lovers understand the sense of satisfaction and well being that emerges as a piece of rich dark chocolate melts on their tongue Chocolate has been, and will continue to be, the ultimate comfort food.
There is a growing body of scientific evidence that explains this phenomenon. Chocolate contains four chemicals that stimulate the brain, caffeine, theobromine, phenylethylamine and N-acylethanolamines. These chemicals in combination turn on pleasure centers in the brain. That “chocolate high” is real.
Chocolate also contains flavanols, natural antioxidant compounds that may ward off vascular disease linked to heart attacks, stroke, diabetes, dementia and hypertension.
A study published in the Harvard Women’s Health Watch and the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition said, “cocoa and chocolate, produced from cacoa beans, contain high amounts of polyphenols and other flavonoids, naturally occurring antioxidants whose effects are associated with reduced cardiovascular risk.” This finding supports the conclusion that diet supplemented with chocolate products can slow oxidation of LDL or “bad” cholesterol and can increase the level of HDL or “good” cholesterol. Therefore, science has finally proven what most people have known for many years. Quality Dark Chocolate is good for you.
The mission of Chocolate Springs is to continue to spread and promote this time-honored, magical sensation of savoring exquisite chocolate.
We invite you to “Escape Into Chocolate.”

Akhil Bharatiya Samaj Sewa Sansthan
The Soil's Thirst Quenched
Micro water harvesting projects have turned around rural life in the water-starved Bundelkhand region
The Patha area in Uttar Pradesh's Chitrakoot district was for long regarded as one of the most water-scarce areas from where stories of thirsty people and animals searching for water in scorching summer have been told time and again. Large tracts of cultivated land remained barren due to lack of water and moisture. A prolonged drought-like situation in recent years had further worsened the situation.
It was against this backdrop that a voluntary organisation — Akhil Bhartiya SamajSeva Sansthaan's (ABSSS) -- promising effort to conserve and harvest rainwater has brought hope to three panchayats and water-shed areas of Manikpur block. These three small projects together has shown the usefulness of small-scale water harvesting projects when implemented and managed properly.
The three projects taken up in Mangavaan, Ittwa and Tikariya Panchayats in the Bundelkhand region were supported by Dorabji Tata Trust, NABARD and the District Rural Development Agency. The projects (two of which are on-going) have so far incurred a total cost of Rs. two crore, out of which Rs. 1.20 crore has been paid to the poorest families in these villages as wages.
The workers were employed in high labour-intensive works like constructing bunds and contour-bunds and contour trenches, creating new water tanks and restoring old ones, checking dams, farm ponds, gully plugs, land-levelling and tree-planting to harvest and conserve rainwater. The broader aim of the projects, taken up on a ridge-to-valley approach, is to slow down and check the rainfall water as it flows down plateau slopes, so that maximum possible water is either conserved or contribute to groundwater recharge. It is a win-win situation as about 60 per cent of the funds directly reached the poorest local families in the form of wage payments and as a result of water and moisture conservation, conditions for short-term as well as long-term improvements in agriculture, animal husbandry and agro-forestry have improved. The water-table in the wells in and around these villages has gone up and there is more greenery.
Bundelkhand has been facing adverse weather conditions for several years now and the rainfall in the project area has been much below the normal level. However, ABSSS' director Bhagwat Prasad says, “These projects have been planned to provide at least some protection even in low rainfall years.” One such method is System of Rice Intensification (SRI), based on better spacing of plants as well as improved weeding practices. Promotion of organic farming leads to more moisture retention by soil.
Farmers' groups and self-help groups make timely advice and resources available to farmers. Watershed and livelihood committees have been formed which oversee the planning of all work, while transparent functioning ensure that workers are well-informed and satisfied with their payment. All payments are made by cheques, and all entries, whether piece-rate or daily wage payments, are recorded in three copies of a wage-book.
ABSSS' earlier campaign for distribution of land among poorest Koltribals is another contributing factor for the latter's obtaining better benefits. During the course of the Mangavaan watershed project, the area under kharif crop went up from just 3 per cent of the total cultivable area in 2007 to 30 per cent in 2011, while the area under rabi crop went up from 47 per cent to 90 per cent. The production of paddy increased from 6,170 kg to 52,081 kg and that of wheat from 112,610 kg to 495,750 kg. Similarly there were big increases in the production of mustard, gram, sesame and vegetables.
Thousands of trees were planted, but survival rate has been below expectation due to uncontrolled grazing. However, a beautiful 11-acre plantation in Tikariya has emerged as an oasis of greenery with its anvla, mango, guava, bel, lemon and karonda trees.
Despite a few setbacks and many hurdles, on the whole, these projects have brought new hope to an area.

Unexpected Red: Eye Inflammation with RA
Last updated: April 2023
Until my own episode, I never realized RA could affect your eyes. Joints? Sure. But eyes? It seemed far-fetched in a disease like RA.
I was aware of the need for routine eye exams and the potential eye complications with hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil). However, no one, not even my rheumatologist, explained eye issues as a possible symptom of RA beyond the side effects of medications. You can imagine how surprised I was when I woke up one morning and had apparent eye inflammation connected to my RA. What were my symptoms? What did I do? What did I learn from this bizarre symptom of RA?
How common are eye issues in RA?
Although eye issues aren’t widely discussed in the RA community, dry eye disease (DED) is relatively common in RA patients, with several other eye conditions occurring less commonly. The most common eye issues include:1
- Dry eye disease (inadequate lubrication of the eye caused by decreased tear production)
- Episcleritis (inflammation leading to acute redness and mild discomfort in one area of the eye)
- Scleritis (inflammation in multiple areas of the eye, usually with more severe symptoms)
- Peripheral ulcerative keratitis (inflammation of the peripheral cornea)
- Anterior uveitis (inflammation of the middle layer of the eye)
Dry eye disease is the most common complaint (18-90% of patients with RA will experience it) but not the most serious. Otherwise, less common but potentially more serious inflammation occurs in episcleritis, scleritis, and uveitis. Studies have reported that 1-6% of RA patients will develop scleritis, and 1-5% will experience episcleritis.1
My eye inflammation experience
A few days after I injected my first biologic, Cimzia, I woke up to nurse my son early in the morning. My eyes would not stay open and felt so heavy and sore. Like most moms of infants, I thought I was just exhausted from the heavy work of motherhood. When I went back to bed and woke up again, my eyes felt swollen and sore both at rest and with movement. I couldn’t look toward light without discomfort, and the whites of my eyes were bloodshot and red. I had never had this happen before and immediately searched Dr. Google. I then wrote a message to my own doctor.
After putting on a pair of sunglasses and adorning my eyes with an ice pack, I found my answer pretty quickly—I was suffering from episcleritis, possibly scleritis, which is the even more severe form.
In my research, I found an article relating the start of an injectable biologic to the onset of an inflammation episode like I was experiencing. As I waited to hear back from my doctor, I took an NSAID, and within 30 minutes, I felt so much improvement in the pain and redness. I continued to take NSAIDS throughout the day, and my symptoms improved significantly. Eventually, my doctor got back to me and instructed me on what to do if the symptoms got worse.
Don’t wait when it comes to your eyes
Bottom line: when it comes to your eyes, don’t wait! Make sure you call your doctor or seek medical treatment, especially if your symptoms are causing issues with your vision. Eye issues can quickly turn serious and permanently put your vision at stake. It’s essential to treat the inflammation promptly and monitor symptoms until the episode resolves. Better safe than sorry!

Prices for ground beef and pork loins returned to pre-pandemic levels, while some products, including chicken wings and prime rib, are cheaper now than they were before the pandemic began, according to data from Nielsen.
Rising production, as well as lower overall demand, are pushing down meat prices.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Aug. 27 that grocery shoppers were also cutting back on spending—a sign that Americans are hurting financially as the federal unemployment stimulus remained on hold.
In June, CNN reported that consumers paid more for groceries in May as meat got more expensive. The prices of food consumed at home rose 1% in May from April even as overall prices declined 0.1%, according to seasonally-adjusted figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The increase was driven mainly by a 3.7% increase in meat, poultry, fish, and eggs.
Beef and veal got a lot more expensive as consumers paid almost 11% more in May, the largest ever monthly increase. The price increase for certain types of meat was even more dramatic with uncooked beef roasts soaring 19.5% and uncooked beef steak prices jumping 11.6%.
Prices rose as major processing facilities shut down or slowed operations due to workers contracting coronavirus. However, even as thousands of their employees fell ill, meatpacking executives pressured federal regulators to help keep their facilities open, according to emails obtained by USA Today (Sept. 14).
The emails show how the North American Meat Institute provided USDA with a draft version of an executive order that would allow plants to remain open. A week later, President Trump signed an order with similar language, which caused confusion over whether local health authorities could close plants during COVID-19 outbreaks.
At least 39,000 positive COVID-19 cases have been tied to meatpacking facilities, and at least 184 workers have died, according to tracking by the Midwest Center for Investigative Reporting.
Plant closures during the spring left cattle and hogs lingering on U.S. farms and ranches, while fallout from COVID-19 kept steakhouses idle and reduced meat exports. This resulted in relief for consumers who are strapped for cash, and more financial pain in farm country—where producers have been struggling for years with low prices for livestock and poultry.
Gordon Food Service Inc. is now selling some beef cuts for half what they cost just a few months ago, while Midwestern grocery chain B&R Stores Inc.—which last spring restricted how much ground beef shoppers could buy—recently put it on sale at a discount.
Additionally, SpartanNash Co. recently offered low-priced promotions for ground beef, ribs, and sirloin steak after meat availability improved over the summer months.
“The supply is plentiful right now,” said Lori Raya, chief merchandising and marketing officer at SpartanNash. “Barring any outbreaks, we’re feeling pretty good.”
Recently, Labor Day sales helped boost earnings in the meat department, according to data from IRI. For the week ending Sept. 6, dollars gained 18.2% over year ago levels during one of the biggest grilling weekends of the summer. Volume gains jumped into double digits as well, at 11.4%. The week of Sept. 6 had 11.2% more transactions compared to same week year ago.
However, some meat executives warned that the industry remains vulnerable to the pandemic’s impact on its workforce, and shortages could return.
For example, Hormel Foods Corp. said plant shutdowns and other coronavirus-driven disruptions in the spring depleted its stocks of meat and other supplies, leaving it with a smaller buffer.
“We’ve burned through that inventory,” Jim Snee, CEO of Hormel, said on an Aug. 25 conference call. “We can’t afford any disruption.”

Originally released last year on Ho! Ho! Ho! Canada VII, Calgary’s Lab Coast have generously re-released this killer track on Bandcamp for our FLAC-downloading fun! This is one of the most interesting approaches to a Christmas song I’ve heard in the past few years. There are no cliches, no “baby, please come home,” rather, the narrator is wondering why they are still loved. Many of you have likely felt inadequate, when faced with someone who loves you more than you think you deserve. “How did I become the apple of your eye? / I don’t know now.” So he walks around, thinking, “Would you still love me as I am / It’s not 1993 / I’m so broke I might as well / wrap myself under your tree.” It’s a powerful song, wrapped up in 2:06 of RIYL Real Estate-indie rock. This is pretty much written for my sensibilities, and thus, here we are. Enjoy.
Bottom Line: This is short enough, interesting enough, and rocking enough to (spoiler alert) make my mix. Maybe yours too! Now with extra FLAC-goodness!
Originally released as a Youtube video back in 2010, the Fast Romantics managed to put together a wonderfully upbeat, profane (my mix is gonna have lots of swearin!) version of the classic “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” which I had been trying to hunt down for a good while – even messaging the band at one point. How I never found this Soundcloud stream from Aporia Records, is beyond me. But alas! It is now mine! The Fast Romantics, for those unfamiliar, are a wonderful indie rock/pop band from Toronto. The early lineup you hear in this delightful Christmas song is clearly fantastic – the groove, the keyboard melodies, the driving bass – it is so damn good. The latest lineup retains two original members, and the recent additions (and the new record, American Love) are fantastic. (Also check out FR member Kirty’s self-titled solo record, it is beautiful.) I would love to hear the new version of Fast Romantics tackle a Christmas song… just sayin…
Bottom Line: The Fast Romantics’ version of this classic Grinch tune is the best one I’ve heard – resurrected from the past for your listening pleasure.

Mellow Fellow, a bedroom-pop genius from the Philippines (who it appears, Soundcloud was invented for), teamed up with Manitoba’s wonderful Floor Cry for a lush tale of a sad, sad New Year’s Eve. The chill vibe, and the beautifully layered instrumentation nearly lets you forget that this song is pretty devastating. The fractured relationship plays out as both parties have a full realization of their roles – she knows that she loves him, but only shows it when convenient, and he won’t take the emotional strain anymore. A late night call that remains unanswered on New Year’s Eve, dressed up with some beautiful performances and production. Highly recommended.
Of note, Floor Cry is no stranger to holiday tunes – I’ve attached her covers of “White Christmas” and “Wonderful Christmastime” (please, everyone, stop covering this) to a playlist. Both are available on her Bandcamp as well.
Bottom Line: A beautiful downer – right up my alley.

Montreal’s MC Paquin’s “Noël Song” is one of the more breezy Christmas tunes I’ve heard in a long time. Splitting time between solo work and being a member of the folk-pop band Jolie Jumper, MC Paquin’s finds the sweet spot between folk-pop and indiepop with “Noël Song.” The airy production, strolling beat, and lovely brass accents will leave you tapping your foot (unless you have no feet). Readers of this blog will know I normally gravitate toward the rougher edges of Christmas tunes, looking for those tracks that don’t quite buy into everything being perfect and snow-covered. However, lines like, “Drove all those miles just to leave them with a smile,” capture a particular sentiment that I just haven’t heard before… and I loved it.
Bottom Line: I’ve always known that Montreal is a hotbed for fantastic music, and MC Paquin has not let her city down. (However, her city let me down this summer when my car was stolen on the FIRST NIGHT OF VACATION. Booooo Montreal, BOOOOOO!)

How about some surf/power-pop from Québec for your hump day enjoyment? Los‘ released Big Surf on October 7th, their LP follow-up to the EP Small Surf, and snuck a Christmas song on the end! “Christmas in D” has me recalling the feel and sound of Mojave 3 at their most poppy, which isn’t necessarily very poppy, but more a mid-tempo, atmospheric, country-twinged dream pop scenario. I’m thinking this through as I write it, so bear with me. I’m really feeling a healthy dash of Pernice Brothers too, especially with the dark lyrics and the vocal layering. “All is well, you never can tell / If heaven is a place to sell / if loving is a wishing well / pulling you under” Los has some nice turns of phrase here, highlighted nicely with multiple listens (so listen!). Los has delivered a complex and interesting Christmas song, perfect for a place like Christmas Underground, and poison for a Christmas party. Hey… that would be a good tagline for this site!
Botton Line: A complex song stylistically, lyrically, and emotionally. Los has my vote! #twomoreweeksofhell
Memoryhouse has finally done it! They have compiled all the loose Christmas songs from over the years, packaged them together with a new, original tune (!), all for a low-low price that benefits rabbit shelters! I’ve previously many of the older Memoryhouse Christmas songs, so I’ll focus mainly on “Merry Christmas Babe.” The sweet electro-pop frames the scene of a snowy Christmas scene, wasting the day as it snows outside. However, nothing is as idyllic as it seems. There are some complicated feelings toward Christmas floating above these synthesizers.
You always hated christmas both, why do you have to be that way?
Made you wear your mittens and we skated all night on the lake.
There’s no other time of year we try so hard to be OK,
But since the roads are so bad, why don’t we stay in and waste the day?
Bottom Line: Memoryhouse have a great touch when it comes to Christmas songs, and this complicated, beautiful song only solidifies them as one of best out there.
Winnipeg’s ATLAAS have created a wonderful electro-pop Christmas song with their new song, and only second release, “Feelings.” Heather Thomas’ vocals weave through bouncing beats as she laments not being with her love at Christmas. Yes, classic lonely-at-Christmas fodder, but done with a funky backing track.
Bottom Line: ATLAAS makes longing for the one you love something you can move in your seat to. 4.6/5
Behind Sapphire are an experimental pop band from Vancouver, Canada, also known (to me) as the Sweden of North America. What is it about cold climates that breed such excellent, interesting pop music? From the Broken Social Scene of Toronto, to the many odd and wonderful bands of Montreal, Canadian cities are just rife with fantastic bands. I will include Behind Sapphire amongst them, and their circumstances are certainly impressive. Still unsigned, they have released 2 EPs, one full length, toured China (got detained in China too!), and have a production value that any signed band would love to have. “Diamonds” is the title track off their first EP, and I am billing this track as one of the more challenging songs on my 2013 mix, The Third Eye Santa. The vocals, the lyrics, and the movements that the song goes through are not for a mainstream pop radio audience. This is one of those tracks that I could see your family members skipping by, but could somehow become your secret, favorite song.
Bottom Line: For your more adventurous listener, perhaps those who enjoy the Parenthetical Girls Christmas tunes. 4.8/5
Le Grande Magistery
Buy: iTunes | 7Digital MP3 | Amazon MP3 | Amazon.uk MP3 | Amazon.de MP3 | Amazon.fr MP3
A Very Magistery Christmas is one of the stronger indie rock/pop compilations I’ve come across. Originally an iTunes exclusive, this album has made its way into Amazon, Rhapsody, and eMusic.
Leading off the record is Pas/Cal, who are known (at least by me) as having some of the BEST christmas tunes around, and their cover of “Last Christmas” lives up to their stellar reputation. This is one of the best versions you can find – and there are a LOT of covers out there. You can also grab this track on their 12″ split with Asobi Seksu. Their stab at “Jingle Bell Rock” isn’t quite as fantastic – but for a song that I don’t particularly like, they cover it well. It is quite unfortunate that when thinking about Pas/Cal, you must think of them in the past-tense… such a loss of lovers of indie pop christmas tunes.
The Stars also make two appearance on this compilation – and for this, be very thankful. First off, I’m a fan. Secondly, they hit a sweet spot that I enjoy – political Christmas songs. “Christmas Song” reflects on our perpetual wars in the Middle East, while reminding us that the Christmas season and Ramadan overlap. “A New Year (Live)” ends the record with a wonderfully stripped-down performance, dramatic as ever, and subtle with its hook. Two tracks worth a listen for sure.
Other standouts would be the electro-pop Baxendale tune, “Flash Gordon,” Mascott & Dave Derby‘s sad folk number “This Christmastime,” and Finian McKean‘s bluesy “Lost & Found.”
I’m not in love with the rest of the record, but nothing on it truly makes me cringe. You might be able to save a few bucks singling out the tracks you want, but overall, a worthwhile compilation that I am happy to own and support.
Bottom Line: Some stellar tunes in here make it rise above the pack. Loses a fraction of a point for not having an avenue to get a CD or FLAC. 4/5

Last week, from January 20 to 23, many of the world’s most influential and powerful people – heads of state, chief executives, Nobel prize winners, monarchs and senior business leaders – gathered at the annual World Economic Forum, known as Davos, the city in Switzerland in which it is held.
This year’s theme, Mastering the Fourth Industrial Revolution, paraphrased as mastering the impact of the digital world on business, government and global systems, rings alarm bells as it’s likely to consolidate the advantage of the powerful while ignoring the basic needs of the poor. Many of those attending the forum believe the “fourth industrial revolution” has the potential to harness different forms of technology to improve global systems, and in turn reach new groups of people with goods and services.
But this industrial revolution is different to previous revolutions – the first built on steam and mechanical production; the second on electricity and mass production; and the third on electronics, information technology and automated production – as digital is instantly global, operates at breakneck speed, innovates in a multitude of ways, and merges physical and computerised worlds.
This all sounds pretty exciting. And it is, especially when innovative digital technology can be harnessed for good. For example, we’re using technology to detect unregistered births in Pakistan, giving previously undocumented children the registration they require to complete schooling, go on to further education and improve their chances of making a good living.
However, let’s not lose sight of the poorest of the poor, who do not have access to technology and are struggling with life’s most basic necessities, such as putting food on the table, and sending their children to school.
Technology has infiltrated many aspects of our lives, but not everyone is in the same position. Social media is used by 30 per cent of the world’s population, but what about the other 70 per cent?
In Indonesia, 29 per cent of the population has access to the internet, but what about the 71 per cent not online?
Even in Australia, one of the world’s most internet-infiltrated countries, the digital divide is prevalent, particularly when comparing non-Indigenous and Indigenous communities.
When basic needs are not being met, talk of digital technology and the transformational capabilities of breakthroughs such as nanotechnology and quantum computing are almost laughable. While many development gains have been achieved globally over the past 15 years, poverty rates are still alarming. According to the World Bank, 22 per cent of the world’s population live below the poverty line (equivalent to 1.2 billion people), and of that figure, a third are children under the age of 12.
The fourth industrial revolution may well lead to improved services that can reach poor populations, and this would be a fantastic, but to ensure no one is left behind, development programs that focus on meeting the basic needs of poor people and children must run in parallel.
At home in Australia, we know this.
The need for basic services that uphold the dignity of those less fortunate are at the heart of charity organisations and campaigns such as Swags for Homeless and the Salvation Army’s Christmas appeal. Both initiatives provide people with the bare necessities: a bed and shelter for the homeless and food on the table and a gift on Christmas Day for those struggling to cope.
An internet connection is secondary when food is what you need first.
Unfortunately, the Australian government’s aid program has recently drifted into this zone of believing that innovation can trump basic needs. Massive cuts to the aid program have led to programs that reached the poorest with basic necessities being cut, while at same time innovation has been spruiked as the solution. What we need is basic needs programs with innovation, not innovation as a substitute for basic needs.
If Davos focuses on how the wealthy can have driverless cars and benefit from artificial intelligence, while the poor continue to starve, it will have failed in its official motto: “Committed to improving the state of the world”. Any talk of innovation must take into serious consideration the gross inequality that still exists in the world.
Davos attendees and the Australian government must understand that technology is not a panacea when it comes to the poor. Technology can be an enabler, but it is not a substitute for tried and tested aid programs that deliver clean water and basic healthcare. After all, what’s the use of a smartphone if you don’t have food on the table?

After casting on, the workup row is: slip stich, *k,p,k in same stich, then purl 3 together (in same stich). I cannot seem to purl three together because after the (k,p,k in same stich) the cast on row become too tight!!! Help.
Cast on looser - use a larger needle or 2 of them held together. It seems a little strange that you wouldn’t knit a couple rows before going into the pattern row, but some of them do it that way.
Thank you so much for reply. I am going to knit a least one row, how bad can a scarf look with one knit row at the beginning. I have been knitting for awhile but clearly don’t lack a lot of confidence. It occurred to me to try this but needed a push.
I cast on with a size large as suggested. Works much better this way.

It’s November, which means pie season has arrived. Wherever you stand on the pie versus cake debate, there is nothing quite like a slice of pie with a flaky, buttery crust, no matter the occasion. Pumpkin, apple, chess, savory, and more — pie varieties abound in and around the city of Philadelphia, which stands on ancestral Indigenous land known as Lenapehoking — and while it may feel like it was just summer, Thanksgiving is only three weeks away. Preorders for pies are open now, so take this chance to plan ahead.
641 Cafferty Road, Ottsville
Pie Bird Farm is an hour from Philly, but as the saying goes: Have pie fork, will travel. (Plus, Pie Bird has occasional pop-ups for pickups at Riverwards Produce in Fishtown and the Doylestown Farmers Market, about half an hour away.) The 161-year-old farm was renovated by husband-and-wife team Jennifer Brodsky and Eric Theesefeld, and in due time, their pandemic pie-making hobby became the focus. All-butter crusts in varieties like double apple, purple sweet potato, maple and brown butter, and a special Thanksgiving themed turkey dinner pie with stuffing crust are on offer, though all Thanksgiving pies must be picked up on-site, so make it a seasonal day trip. Preorders can be placed here.
6511 Germantown Ave, Mt. Airy
Despite the name, the bakers at Frosted Fox Cake Shop are experts in more than just beautifully decorated cakes for all occasions. On most Fridays and Saturdays, the Frosted Fox offers a variety of seasonal pies for pickup or preorder (they go fast, though, so call ahead). For Thanksgiving, preorders are available online and by phone, with five delicious varieties to enjoy the season with: pumpkin, sweet potato, pecan, apple, and pear ginger.
743 South 4th Street, Queen Village
This relative newcomer to Queen Village (it used to be the Hungry Pigeon) has pastries that any sweet tooth would die for: monkey bread, morning buns, and croissants are outstanding beyond compare. If you’re aiming to go larger format, though, the all-day cafe and restaurant has pies — like the Pennsylvania maple and pecan pie and the heirloom pumpkin pie — for preorder for Thanksgiving (or otherwise) by phone and online here.
1838 East Passyunk Ave, East Passyunk
No matter how you slice it, a pie is still a pie, and at Stargazy in East Passyunk, the specialty is savory pies, both of the hand and large-format variety. The British pie shop has an impressive list of savory pies for preorder, from chicken and mushroom to steak and kidney, and they come in several different sizes, from hand to party size. Even better, each pie can be ordered par-baked so you can fib to your family and say you whipped that buttery beef and onion pie up all by yourself. After all, you’ve been watching a lot of Great British Bake-Off.
2830 Poplar Street, Fairmount
New June Bakery’s Noelle Blizzard — the brainchild behind and owner of the cottage bakery in Fairmount — is a masterful baker, excelling in everything from crispy, thin matcha and cocoa cookies to elegant layer cakes and spiced morning buns. Make sure to save room for Thanksgiving: New June is offering local pickup for five Thanksgiving pies, with 10 percent of proceeds going to Philabundance. Spice-kissed pumpkin pie with wheat crust; dark chocolate coconut pecan pie; cranberry apple crumb pie; blood orange curd tart with lime, amaro, and a triple ginger cookie crust; and cranberry curd with gluten-free hazelnut crust are all on offer. Preorder pies for November 25 pickup on the New June site.
51 North 12th Street at Reading Terminal Market
While most people know this Reading Terminal bakery as a doughnut spot, Beiler’s also offers a good selection of seasonal and year-round pies, from lemon meringue to pecan. Stop by the market to check out the selection, or order on Grubhub.
4409 Main Street, Manayunk
The bakers at Crust Vegan Bakery say that pie season is all year round, and with the tasty vegan pies they make, it’s no surprise. Luckily, those who are devoted to Thanksgiving as the holiday for pie, preorders for four kinds of pie — pumpkin, apple, pecan, and sweet potato — are open, with two gluten-free options. Even better, Crust will donate five percent of pie preorder sales to Seeding Sovereignty, an Indigenous-led community collective working to dismantle colonial institutions.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. State Division is in the ultimate stages of clearing Best Quadcopter Reviews – Buyer’s Guide Comparison the sale of 22 MQ-9 drones to India, with an expectation that U.S. President Donald Trump will announce the sale for the duration of the approaching pay a visit to of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. With the 2 on board batteries this drone also gets a pretty good flight time of up to 27 minutes. You can also lock the maximum distance and altitude to guarantee your drone stays within the sought after array of operation. In case you reach those boundaries the drone will nevertheless fly and rotate but will not move any even more.
We truly like this checklist of suggested video games to play , which ranges from drone races and I Spy to aerial acrobatic contests. Though this is all occurring, they’re also outside, obtaining training (possibly), and enhancing their dexterity, hand/eye co-ordination and patience.
Drones use rotors for propulsion and manage. You can assume of a rotor as a fan, simply because they get the job done quite a great deal the exact same. Spinning blades push air down. Of course, all forces come in pairs, which implies that as the rotor pushes down on the air, the air pushes up on the rotor. This is the primary strategy behind lift, which comes down to controlling the upward and downward force. The speedier the rotors spin, the greater the lift, and vice-versa.
It can be also small and regular adequate to fly indoors. You are going to want a gentle touch, but it can be not tricky to get it to hover in spot in a area in front of you and snap a picture. Even now, as a single good friend who attempted it out said, it can be a bit like remaining all over a flying lawn mower — that large-pitched whine would not make for the most relaxed of get together pics.

Recognized as drone racing, this pastime involves racing smaller, agile drones all over obstacle courses.

As this kind of, it presents an expertise that will involve all of the senses and provides fliers an adrenaline-laced surge of pleasure though the Best Quadcopter Reviews – Buyer’s Guide Comparison race lasts. The sport is getting to be more and more organized, with the formation of the DRL (Drone Racing League) and competitions that can net the winners hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Although an older update to the DJI GO four app added some reliability and greater camera management on the go, yet another update because has added offline maps , and we can now speak about the extra dual pilot choice and fixed wing flying mode All in all, this is a drone who’s value continues to increase.
It really is solidly constructed too, with the majority of the quadcopter remaining constructed from challenging plastic – useful to know, provided that any one who buys a drone is probable to have at least 1 or two slight aerial mishaps throughout their ownership. The gimbal-mounted camera feels much more delicate, but DJI supplies a clear plastic cage that protects it from harm though you are carrying it close to.
In terms of video, it records 1080p at 30 frames per 2nd making use of a one/two.3″ CMOS sensor. The video turns out wonderful and you even have manual control in excess of matters like the ISO, and so on. The downside with the Spark for video is it information at 30fps, which is sub-optimum for rapidly-moving objects—ideally we would like to have 1080p60 right here. For the typical drone consumer, the camera—both for images and video—is excellent ample, but owning 60 fps or 4K would make it just that much better. Also, on extra high-priced drones you may have a large bitrate, which helps improve the video high-quality. With the Spark, the bitrate is reasonably lower, meaning that your footage will be of lesser high-quality than more high priced 1080p cameras and you will almost certainly observe a slight lack of detail in particular cases.
When the quadcopter breaks, you want to be able to be ready to fix the quadcopter and get your child back to flying. The suppliers of these ideal drones for kids all make spare components kits readily available. In truth, you may well want to contemplate currently being proactive and get the spare elements in advance of the quadcopter breaks.

I was looking for a new show to watch and chanced upon “Dad, Where Are We Going?” The show was apparently popular enough to warrant international spinoffs. I am on Episode 6 and can begin to see why. The adorable children easily coax the “awws” out of you and the interaction they have with their fathers is so heartwarming.
In particular, I am taken by this little boy Yoon Hoo, an energetic bundle providing the comic relief in the show. He has a cheeky smile, a small tummy, and a kind heart.
Screenshot taken from KShowOnline
The ear flaps from Yoon Hoo’s winter cap were slightly twisted to the side as he went about his mission that day. I found it quite endearing, and made a drawing loosely based on the screenshot above.
I was going to stop there, then decided to apply some water to see how different the effect would be. It has been a long time since I used colour pencils, and I had never really used watercolour. I forgot the sketch was on normal note paper – it immediately shrivelled up at the touch of the wet brush. The colour had smeared, so I just sucked the air through my teeth and continued to paint.
It was so different working with a brush. The weight of the strokes had to be lighter, seeing as how the colours spread so easily. I should also have filled in the lighter colours first, waited for them to dry, then work on the darker colours to avoid smearing.
It’s ok, I shall try again next time!


Ihar Lohvinau is going to submit an appeal to the Belarusan Minister of Information asking to review the court decision, after his album Belarus Press Photo 2011 was considered to be extremist.
On September 23 the private entrepreneur Ihar Lohvinau was informed that his license for publishing activities had been withdrawn.
The document was signed by Liliya Ananich, deputy of the Minister of Information, informs BAJ. The license was withdrawn because of “rough violations of the legislation on licensing”. The matter deals with publishing of the Belarus press Photo 2011 photo album which had been recognized extremist by the Ashmiany court on April 18, 2013.
“We think that the license had been suspended unlawfully, with many violations, so we have already sent a letter to the Minister of Information Aleh Praliaskouski,” said a representative of the publishing company.
According to Andrei Bastunets, the deputy chair and lawyer of BAJ, the law does not entitle the Minister of Information to taking such measures, and also the procedure of license suspension has been violated.
“I would like to draw attention to the fact that when the publishing house was not involved in the Belarus Press Photo 2011 case in any status. But now the decision of the trial has been made the ground for withdrawing the license,” remarked the lawyer. “If the Ministry does not change their mind, the situation can be resolved only in court.”
To support Lohvinau Publisher House, Belarusian Association of Journalists directed a petition to the Ministry of Information of Belarus. The petiotion was signed by 20 journalists from eight journalists’ organizations: the International Federation of Journalists, the Trade Union of Journalists of Azerbaijan, the unions of journalists of Armenia, of Moldova and of Russia, the Independent Association of Journalists of Georgia, the Independent Media Trade Union of Ukraine, the Glasnost Defence Foundation (Russia). The petition was signed at the meeting “For safety, rights and independent standards for journalists in post-soviet countries” in Chisinau.
“We are alarmed by the news that the Belarusian publisher Ihar Lohvinau has been stripped of the license,” says the petition.
“The very fact of recognizing the photo album extremist triggered a negative reaction of the international community. The claim that the album distorts the reality looks absurd, as it is a collection of winning photos of a photography contest. As well as the respective authorities of the country look absurd being involved in recognizing the photo album as “extremist materials”, - is stated in the petition.
The publisher house Lohvinau has been one of the leading publishers of the Belarusian literature, claim the petitioners, adding that “the withdrawal of the license inflicts great damage to the culture of Belarus, the same as to the image of the country”. Because of that, they “call on the Ministry of Information to review its decision immediately.”
The letter signed on October 6 in Chisinau is to be sent these days to the receiver by the Journalists’ Union of Moldova.
