A dog owner from northeastern England has been threatened with police action after his ageing pet Rottweiler was registered to vote in next month's European Parliament elections, it emerged Tuesday.
Russell
Hoyle, 45, from Stockton near Newcastle, was asked to attend a police
interview and risks a fine or even prison for the registration of his
dog Zeus, according to the local Evening Gazette newspaper.
Hoyle blamed the mix-up on an official who came to his house to take names of residents for the electoral register.
"I remember saying, 'There is myself and my wife. My son is not old enough to vote'," recalled Hoyle, a security guard.
Then he said he had quipped to the official: "We have got Zeus living here as well and he is 63 in dog years."

Abuja Senate yesterday pleaded with the United Nations (UN) and the
Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to urgently intervene
and deploy forces to assist Nigeria in rescuing the 234 abducted female students of Government Girls’ Secondary School (GGSS), Chibok in Borno
State. This is even as a senator revealed that they may have been moved
to Chad and Cameroon.
Senate President David Mark will also meet with the security chiefs on the issue and report back to the chamber.
In his welcome speech after the Easter break, Mark said citizens
should be under no illusions that with the current spate of insurgency,
Nigeria is at war. He called on President Goodluck Jonathan to identify
sources of funding for the Islamist militants, their sponsors and go
beyond the declaration of state of emergency in the three states of the
North-East.
Mark called on the President to launch a military offensive against Boko Haram.
Said Mark: “There is no doubt that our nation is at war. The enemy
has clearly and unequivocally served the nation notice of its vile
intentions. Therefore, a clear, unambiguous and decisive military
response from the government, beyond the imposition of a state of
emergency, is urgently required in this circumstance. This is an option
we must consider now.

6 JOBS FOR PEOPLE WHO DISLIKE FACE-TO-FACE INTERACTION
Labels:
Career
No comments:
Are you a career seeker who prefers to save your human interaction
for friends and family, or just the type who values his or her alone
time, we've got good news.
"There are lots of careers that are ideal for people who don't want
face time," says Tina Gilbertson, a Portland, Oregon-based
psychotherapist who specializes in holistic career counseling.
And while every job has an element of human interaction, that doesn't
mean there aren't opportunities that allow for minimal face-to-face
contact. Intrigued? Keep reading to learn more about six careers where face time is usually kept at a minimum.
1 Computer Programmer
Does working on a computer without the potential distraction of
co-workers seem like an ideal situation for you? If that's the case, you
might want to consider a career in computer programming.
Common duties include
writing programs in various computer languages, debugging programs, and
using computer-assisted software engineering (CASE) tools to automate
the writing of some code.
Alone Time Factor: Computer programmers typically
spend most of their working hours away from face-to-face situations with
co-workers. "Programmers tend to work odd hours, early in the morning to late in
the evening, and with that, there's no need to work with people who
could slow them down," Cook says. "Language skills and social skills
aren't as important to them as meeting deadlines or milestones on their
projects."
How to Get Started: Most computer programmers have a bachelor's degree, but some employers do hire workers who possess an associate's degree. If you're wondering what to study, consider computer science or a related field of study. According to the Department, that's what most programmers pursue.

In a bid to ensure security, the Federal
Government has introduced measures to forestall unnecessary loitering
of unauthorised persons at all the nation’s international airports.
The unauthorised persons, according to
the government, include protocol officers, aides and escorts of
dignitaries who are usually in the habit of following their principals
to restricted parts of the airports.
Also, the Federal Government has
announced steps aimed at curtailing the gridlock at the international
airports, saying the present situation has become a source of
embarrassment to the nation.
Announcing these at a press briefing on
Monday, the Special Adviser to the President on Performance, Monitoring
and Evaluation, Prof. Sylvester Monye, said President Goodluck Jonathan
had in September 2013, set up a committee to achieve this as part of his
transformation agenda.
According to him, the committee has
representatives from the Nigeria Police, Office of the National Security
Adviser, Nigerian Army, Nigerian Air Force, Nigeria Customs Service,
National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, Department of State Security
Services, Nigerian Immigration Service, Federal Airports Authority of
Nigeria and the Federal Road Safety Corps.

37-year-old Christina Summitt, a bartender didn't know how she would be able to afford her dog Tucker's surgery. She was working three jobs, but still struggled financially.
About a week ago, Summitt found out Tucker was sick and needed an X-ray. Already, she was concerned about the costs, and when she discovered he also needed surgery, she considered selling her car or wedding ring to pay for the operation. A typical surgery runs anywhere between $1,800 and $2,700, she notes, and Tucker specifically needed a biopsy done to determine why he was ill.
She shared her pet story with a nice couple she was serving at the Holiday Inn in Clinton, NJ. After hearing about her puppy, the couple left Summitt a $1,000 tip on an $80 bill, with instructions to put the money only toward the vet.

Although they were later rescued, but not without sustaining varying degrees of injury.
PUNCH Metro learnt that among the
injured were three children, Moses Atoketi 15; Jimoh Adebiyi 13; and
Monday Ahungbe 12; and seven other casual workers in the building.
A resident, Oscar Joshua, told our correspondent that the building collapsed around 11.30am.
Joshua, who is also the Organising
Secretary, Oworonshoki Youth Association, said the building used to be a
bungalow but was being reconstructed at the time of the incident.
He said, “The building collapsed around
11.30am. Ten people were working at the building when it collapsed. The
house used to be an unoccupied bungalow, but about seven months ago,
labourers started working on it.
“The building was being upgraded and was to be converted to a two-story building.
“Luckily for the victims, the building
is located near the Oworonshoki Police Station, so we were able to rally
around and we called emergency officials who immediately rushed down to
the scene.”

No comments:
Nearly one week after Jude Okoye, elder brother to singing duo Paul and Peter Okoye (P-Square) posted on twitter that he was ‘done’, the stand-off in the Okoye family is far from abating with insiders telling Vanguard that Peter had refused to be appeased despite interventions from close friends.
Peter reportedly gave condition for peace, saying his wife, Lola, must be accepted and respected by the family or risk total isolation from him. Several sources contacted by Vanguard confirmed that this was his only condition for peace.
One insider said: “Peter is tired of the long years he has had to plead with his family to accept the woman he has decided to spend the rest of his life with.
“He wants Lola to be welcomed in the family just as Anita (Paul’s wife) has been accepted irrespective of her tribe or age. This is his condition.”
Although the twins had fought at their dance rehearsal earlier in the month, Vanguard learnt this was not what had ultimately prompted Peter to severe his relationship with P-Square.
The source said Peter “has taken their attitude towards Lola even more to heart than what role he plays in P-Square, be it singing or dancing.
BEYONCE TOPS TIME MAGAZINE'S LIST OF 100 WORLD'S MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE

The "Drunk in Love" singer Beyoncé tops Time magazine's annual list of the 100 world's most influential people.
She is profiled by Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, who had her own huge year thanks to the continuing success of her leadership book "Lean In." Sandberg praises Beyoncé for breaking sales records and changing the face of the music industry by dropping a surprise album with zero publicity.
"In the past year, Beyoncé has sold out the Mrs. Carter Show World Tour while being a full-time mother. Her secret: hard work, honesty and authenticity," Sandberg writes. "Beyoncé doesn't just sit at the table. She builds a better one."
Sandberg also cites Beyoncé for sampling a feminist quote from Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie in one of her songs, elevating the writer from respected by academics to popular in the mainstream.
Big Congrats to Queen Bey.
