Just A Reminder: About 2 years ago, the security agencies issued a warning that we all took lightly, though widely reported in the media...
2) The agencies warned that as #BokoHaram insurgents and their camps are being decimated, some of the insurgents on the rub will head to the Southern parts of the country, some of them using COWS as cover to wreck mayhem. Can you folks @Google up this news item???
3) The Army and other security forces have made claims of over running #BokoHaram amd their territories in the North. But we are yet to ask: Where has the fleeing insurgents gone to?

#NigeriaMessyPower Sector
-Gas producers are private sector owned, under yoke of FG fiat over gas prices to GENCOS
-Gencos partially owned by FG and private investors
-#NBET that owns the national grid is 100% FG owned
-Transmission Coy of Nigeria or TCN is owned by FG
-DISCOS partially owned by FG and private investors
-Customers owing DISCOS
-DISCOS owing NBET
-NBET owing GENCOS
-GENCOS owing gas producers
#TCN doesn't have enough capacity to transmit all power generated by GENCOS
-DISCOS charges customers estimated billing to make up for power theft, debtors etc
-Gas companies ship gas overseas at competitive prices for $$ revenues
-NBET sells some power to neighbouring countries for rev for FG
-Thousands of MW generated for NBET cannt be taken up by TCN

6 Massive Benefits To Following The 2 Meal-Per-Day Intermittent Fasting Model (Thread):

For years, I've suggested eating two main meals per day.

Fast in the morning.

Then meal #1 @ 1pm.

Meal #2 @ 6pm.

The timings can vary, but this is the standard model.

Here's why...
#1) You Find It Easier To Eat Less Calories

Big meals are very satisfying.

Contrast this to the old school 6 meals per day:

You're eating tiny portions throughout the day, and each one makes you HUNGRIER, as they're just not filling enough.

2 big meals = easier fat loss.
#2) You Can Feast In The Evenings

Instead of eating like a king at breakfast and a pauper at dinner, it's the other way round.

Dinner is when you've done your work, and want to relax.

It's when you're with family/friends/women.

It's when you want to EAT.

#NextLevel: Follow Detached Leaders to Your Death--A THREAD
The creativity deficit in APC’s NextLevel campaign slogan & graphic is truly unnerving, but it powerfully encapsulates, without intending to, the frighteningly escalating sense of foreboding that a Buhari 2nd term... 1/7
would mean for Nigeria. The photo shows Buhari & Osinbajo insouciantly detached from the people they're leading. Buhari appears as a clumsy, clueless leader who can’t even get his steps right: unlike Osinbajo, he skips a step on d staircase as he leads Nigerians to perdition. 2/7
Both the leaders and the led wear sheepish, vacuous grins as they head to their damnation like moths to a flame. The photo shows them climbing up the edge of a cliff from where they'd fall into the cruel, unforgiving blue ocean that surrounds them. 3/7

They all had high hopes. No longer."

"It changed in the last six weeks."

Anecdotes, but expected.

The Fed builds dysfunction into the economy with low rates - it shows when rates rise.

A sharp break to be expected after years of zero Fed rate and then increased Fed rates. Criticality Theory.

"Trump has used Harley-Davidson as an example of a US business that is being harmed by trade barriers. Yet Harley has warned consistently against tariffs, saying they would negatively impact sales"

Harley, hit by tariffs, shifts some production overseas apnews.com/6c8942f7363743…
Important issue highlighted by @riotwomennn: are tariff exemptions determined by bribes?

Corker: "22,000 companies have asked for exemptions.There is no basis to deal with them. Are they going to grant these exclusions based on political contributions?"
Trump’s trade war with the European Union is going to cost Harley-Davidson as much as $100 million a year and force the manufacturer to shift production out of the U.S. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I *truly* cannot say enough about how this character functions, it's so incisive. #sithmas
I would also posit that Darth Vader : Slow Zombie :: Kylo Ren : Fast Zombie. For that matter, a Semi-Fast Zombie upgrade is why Vader's so scary in Rogue One. #sithmas
I don't know who made the decision to cast Oscar Isaac, but it's genius. He manages to steal this sequence and is able to land the humor undercutting Kylo (and later, General Hugs) #sithmas
