I found this fascinating quote today:

1. Please tell your governments that if they are seen as interfering or supporting our actions - then we have lost! I believe that if we can receive covert resources and support without prompting action by the regime, our enemy will be severely suppressed. Today we heard from sources outside of Iran that we can not win. Those who are saying this in the media please notice: You must also mention the success of the results thus far. For the sake of the spirit of our demonstrators, you must mention that we are making great strides. Your words have the power of giving energy to our cause. The actions against us will only escalate unless the legitimacy of this government is removed from popular opinion. We only have ourselves to depend on. Today the commander of the Tehran Police refused to implement the suppression orders sent down to him by the Government. This was a small success, however many were later arrested when the information became known to the Officials.
2. People are afraid to demonstrate without money or resources. Many are afraid that a general strike will drain bank accounts and thus cripple our efforts. Please be cautious when calling for demonstrators to remove money from banks, stop shopping and work. While it is effective for us to use these measures, please be cautious and regard that we are making necessary plans within our groups. Your information being sent en mass through public mediums is falling directly into the hands of our enemies.
3. Continue blocking Iran regime websites. We continue needing Firefox plug-ins, anonymous portals and IP devices. If you can find a way to provide those to us, it will be important in our efforts.
4. Iranian State Television is creating massive distorition of truths. Their reports are stirring fear and frustration in the people. They collect information from foreign media websites and report just the opposite, or design filtered propaganda to distress our efforts. The Iran television news is showing pictures that have been collected off websites of the demonstrators, and they are asking viewers to send in informative leads to who the face belongs to and where they live. Recently many have blanked out the face of the demonstrators before uploading our pictures. That is a great help to our cause.
5. The Regime is accusing foreign governments and Western media with unfounded charges. Their motive in doing so is to create chaos and diversion. They are provoking governments to take a position instead of well-thought passive defense. The State-Run News plays up the Western governments as imperfect and problematic - attempting to inspire people to stop these protests for fear of becoming like the Western nations. These allegations have been extremely critical of the USA and President Obama administration. What we feel is best would be the United Nations to call on Iran's regime to hold another election. We all have the courage to face this, so International Community, as your governments to pressure the UN to act on requesting a new election in Iran. Also continue to call on your governments in Europe and America to visibly appear neutral and do not show explicit support. The USA administration is doing that and it helps so much. President Ahmadinejad is very worried at this hour of the protests.
6. It is very likely that quite soon our leaders: Mousavi, Karroubi and Khatami will be arrested. It is also very likely many other political leaders will be detained. We call on the International Media to continue broadcasting fair information while remaining responsible.

You should read the whole article.

blesed are you?

Once in a while I feel the urge to write and today is just one of those days. I always promise myself to blog more often but I find that I get occupied doing other things I dont understand why I do them lol
so i graduated last month woot woot
I switched over from firefox to chrome well except from when i am using a computer other than mine where i still use firefox
i am considering switching to windows 7 once i find time to back up my computer
and there are so many other mundane things i have been up to but most important of them all is the fact that I am alive and filled with love and optimism.
Too many people have died when i think of the 228 people who lost their lives in the recent Air France I cannot but give thanks to God for sustaining me through it all, when I hear people moaning about their lack of boyfriends/girlfriends jobs, etc I wonder aren't they glad that they are alive to even be able to worry about suck trivial issues (well not so trivial when your parents arent rich like mine and willing to let you mooch off them which I am terribly grateful for) but I am grateful to God for keeping me, being with me, blessing me and loving me...his love knows no bounds and even if I am single my entire life, his love is enough for me...plus I also have the unconditional love of my awesome family and friends what more could I ask for?

It's been almost a year since posted but so much has happened since then...I'm about to finish my journey as an Undergrad I am looking forward to what Life has in store for me.
My life is an open book and with each choice I make am writing a new paragraph.
In the end I want to be able to look back on everything I have done and be able to not have any regrets. So far I have done a good job I think...I would love to be closer to God, I am trying...maybe I'm not trying hard enough but I am trying
School is good, friends are god. I have never been prouder of Phi Sigma Rho than this year, we have gone through so much and accomplished so much this year and I am happy I was as involved as I was...see no regrets whatsoever
Life is good, love is good
Once again I will try to be more consistent with blogging
until my next post, remember, Love is the Movement

Mr Jailer...yes I'm talking to you

Once again this stupid indecent dressing bill is making headlines...why t is doing so only heaven knows.
How ill-timed this is, at a time when militants are busy murdering innocent women and children all in the name of liberating the Niger-Delta...liberation my arse and instead of this so called legislator woman to address the issues in the Niger Delta she is opening her smelly va-jay-jay for the whole world to smell...it stinks by the way.
What pains me is that the Nigerian woman does not understand her rights...if it was the government saying they were going to hike up the price of fuel once more...no one would hear word...Oshiomole and his idiot boys would have commandeered all the media to tell everyone once more that the useless NLC is about to once more cripple the economy...hissss
Instead, because it doesn't concern the "masses" oga comrade is enjoying himself in the Edo state government house...nonsense.
Where are all the mothers...who buy clothes for their daughters...will they sit back and watch one Ekaette tell ladies older than 14 how to dress? What the french toast? The bill doesn't even make sense
The bill just stinks of hypocrisy, she couldn't find anything better so she had to show the world how backwards her mode of thinking is...as if wearing mary amaka clothes is going to stop a man from raping a girl if he has set his mind to do so...if she cant find any better means to add her two cents she should please go back to being a house wife, none of all this embarrassing nonsense, im sure the house of representatives has bigger bones to chew than the ramblings of a woman who has no fashion sense and does not understand anything about fundamental human rights...if it is a woman's choice to endanger herself let it be so but she has no right to cry wolf when all is said and done, so madam Ekaette those that have breast let the flaunt it...abi is it paining you?

Things to consider when calling Tech Support...
Date: 2007-04-27, 11:38PM EDT


Hi! I'm your Technical Support Rep. I have a considerable amount of control over one or more important aspects of your daily life: television, telephone, and internet. Sometimes one, sometimes all three. Before we interact, I'd like to share some thoughts with you:

* I am here, simply put, to fix your shit. My job is not complete until said shit is fixed. Please just help me fix this shit.

* With that out of the way, know that I hate you exactly as much as you hate me. No more, no less. If you are at least relatively pleasant, I'm happy to help you- even to make small talk as I attend to the issue at hand. Conversely, if you are a total and complete jackass, I will make this the worst 10 minutes of your week.

* Neither I, nor any of my coworkers, are out to fuck you. We are not idiots. We are college graduates in technical disciplines, the vast majority of whom are here to work their way up the IT ladder to more fulfilling positions. Sometimes we have off days, sure, but we know EXACTLY what we are doing. Note that this does not apply to anyone outside of our department. They are, in all reality, idiots who are out to fuck you.

* So you've already unplugged the "internet box" and plugged it back in? Brace yourself, you're going to do it again. Most of the time I do this for a reason...unless you're a dick. Then I do it to see how mad it makes you.

* Don't lie to me- I can tell you have a router. It isn't illegal.

* To those who think they are "computer illiterate": The vast majority of the time, you are lovely customers: Patient, willing to learn, and most importantly, willing to listen. Thank you!

* To those who think they are CompSci PHD's: The vast majority of the time, you are retarded: If you already cycled your equipment and it didn't work, why did it work when I made you do it again? If you are so well educated, stay the hell out of the queue so that people who need help can get it.

* Supervisors don't have a magic wand that they can wave to make everything better. They are governed by the same protocol and use the same utilities as I do. In fact, supervisors are more likely to tell you to fuck off- believe it or not, they have other pressing issues to attend to. If a node goes down, they WILL put those 200 subscribers before you in Priorityland.

* Threatening to cancel does not intimidate us. We have an entire department that is paid to care about that, which means that I don't have to. Harsh? Sure, but I have more than enough work to do fixing shit, yelling at field techs, following up on cases, and explaining the concept of email to your grandmother that it won't cause me to lose any sleep.

* It worked fine yesterday? Oh, then I must be wrong. Let me reconsider the 40 minutes I spent troubleshooting your Win98 box. Check it out: Shit breaks (see point 1); If shit did not break, I would be mowing your lawn instead of sitting in this office.

* Speakerphone? Turn it the fuck off.

* Don't call back and have another rep troubleshoot the same problem. He will read the notes I left about how you spilled coke into your cable box. Even if he didn't, he would come to the same conclusion, and more people with undiagnosed problems would be stuck listening to that god-awful hold music.

* I am not blowing smoke when I say that I understand how frustrating it is to wait on hold, get transferred, and deal with bad agents. I too have called Dell's tech support line. The difference is that I actually DO care about your problem, so please just calm down before I kill your family.

* My company has over 20 million subscribers. I handle a region of about 2 million. To this day, none of them have ever called in to say "I just wanted you to know that my shit is working correctly." Maybe someday?



So what can I help you with today?


Yeah finals are going swell. My mom is mad at me for not speaking to her today when I called her sister to say happy mother's day...she's being greedy I told her the exact same thing in March...Happy Mother's day mom 2x gaaaaah

I need to study for physical Chemistry

Love is the Movement

It's been a while...what's happened since March?
1. Love unreturned
2. Formal...scorned love
3. Love found
4. Finals...love kept

1. I have a hard time showing emotions..its taking a toll on me, no one ever knows when I am besotted and my affections are unrequited... :(
2. Formal...allow me to introduce la belle du jour - yours sincerely. Just as the one I want seems to elude my attentions, I seem to gain the attention of some others - nothing wrong with them just too much baggage and baggage is definitely not my cup of tea
3. I <3 Reema we have grown so class and I am glad we pledged together. I found God again I know even if SIT cant return my affections, there is one love that encompasses the world and I have that love for no absolute reason other than grace - God's love is abundant in my life and I hope others can see it and try to get it too...Thanks Switchfoot for helping me recommit myself
...Heavenly father, you always amaze me :)

4. Its time for finals, I'm at rest and trusting in God that I will make him, my parents and myself proud :)

My mind is dull and faded
From these years of buy and sell
My eyes have seen the glory
Of this hollow modern shell
And sex is a grand production
But I'm bored with that as well
Ah, Lord save me from myself
Electric sun keep shining
Ripen daughters of the chrome
This world is where I breathe
Let it never be called home
Where the vultures make the money
Is where our bodies fell
Ah, Lord save me from myself - Jon Foreman

Bless you
