Foreign AffairsWhy The US Election May Have Been Rigged by bobfash(op): 4:37am On Nov 29, 2016
I came across a post on one of our news blog about Edward Snowden's allegation of US election rigged by Russia for Donald trump, so I decided to ask google if the US election really could have been rigged. After a few clicks I saw many news agencies declaiming this report stating that it is fake, while some report are corroborating this story.. here is what an International news site has to say about the possibility of US election probably rigged.

How would computer hackers have rigged the US election against Hillary Clinton? A computer scientists explains
It would be relatively easy to construct a system that would lie in wait, until it was needed
The election might have been rigged against Hillary Clinton, some experts have claimed. And activists are now launching campaigns to have those votes checked.

It isn't yet clear how that hacking would have taken place, in such a way to ensure that Donald Trump won the vote, if it did happen. But one of the experts that is consulting with the Democrats has laid out a possible scenario of how that hacking might have happened – and why it would have gone unnoticed.

J Alex Halderman, a professor at the Univeristy of Michigan, has written about how it might have been that a state or other hackers broke into the election process and allowed it to be swung for Donald Trump. If such a scenario did happen, it would represent one of the most significant cyber attacks in history, and could throw the entire Presidential election into disrepute.

"First, the attackers would probe election offices well in advance in order to find ways to break into their computers," he wrote. "Closer to the election, when it was clear from polling data which states would have close electoral margins, the attackers might spread malware into voting machines in some of these states, rigging the machines to shift a few percent of the vote to favor their desired candidate.

Trump said to have shunned all but two daily classified briefings
"This malware would likely be designed to remain inactive during pre-election tests, do its dirty business during the election, then erase itself when the polls close. A skilled attacker’s work might leave no visible signs — though the country might be surprised when results in several close states were off from pre-election polls."

Professor Halderman made clear that was just one way that the election might be hacked, and that it could have happened in a number of different ways. But he did say that it would make sense that someone would try such an attack – even if it does seem like it would be noticed and probably foiled.

He pointed to the example of hacking of the email account of the Democratic National Committee as well as John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, both of which led to personal emails being leaked. He also pointed to clear hacking of voter registration systems as an example of the fact that people have already looked to interfere with the running of the election.

In those hacking attempts, official have put the blame on Russian hackers. It does appear that people within the country have sophisticated enough cyber weapons to make their way into voting systems.

Even in advance of the election, concerns were widespread that it would be easy to hack into the voting machines that were being used and . Edward Snowden shared a video just before the election that showed hackers breaking into a voting machine using only a £24 memory card.

Professor Halderman wrote that the strange results probably weren't a consequence of the cyber attack, and were probably a consequence of polling data being wrong. But he nonetheless urged that people in the battleground states that might ahve been hacked – critical places like Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania – petition for urgent recounts so that the paper votes can be counted and the chance that the election was rigged can be checked.

I don't think Nigeria deserve the kind of leaders we have in this country. A leader that will not think well and research well to get a well informed thought before he talks or post something online. How can our dear President say fuel subsidy is a fraud and then later say subsidy on fuel has been removed the same applies to Gov Abiola Ajimobi who said he will pay workers 25k as minimum wage, and later could not pay 18k. oh God we need sincere leaders in this country! #whysubsidyremoval

BusinessThe Joker You Don't Know About Domain Flipping Business by bobfash(op): 4:06pm On Jul 02, 2015
As people who normally use internet only to check emails, shop, tweet, upload pictures, update facebook status or conduct some business, a large majority of us remain oblivious to the domain name and domain flipping industry. So, when we do decide to venture into it for some reason, it is only natural for us to carry some commonly known myths associated with it.

Many people think of domain buying and selling to be one of the easiest methods of making quick money . Perhaps, you may have heard of someone buying a domain name for under $3000 and then selling it for $25,000. A quick $22,000 profit! Such stories can be very motivating! And that sort of money does exchange hands (Go through 10 of the biggest domain name sales of all time!). But these deals don’t come as easy as they seem! Ask anyone who flips domains for a living and he/she’ll tell you the amount of hard work and skill that goes into it.

Is there anything trickier than choosing a great domain for your website? Domains can be worth a lot of money, with famous names like Hotels.com and Business.com selling for $11 million and $7.5 million respectively.

While tracking down multi-million dollar domain names is incredibly tough, it’s still very possible to profit from flipping domains for hundreds – sometimes thousands – of dollars each.

In this guide, you’ll learn six tactics for domain flipping. From tracking down expired domains with PageRank and great backlink profiles to buying local domains to resell to small business, read on to become a domain flipping expert.

Have you never invested in a domain before? Here are tips that can be of help
Focus on local domain names

Over the last decade, local search engine optimization has grown from a tiny market into a huge industry. From pizza delivery restaurants to dentists, almost every local business wants to be the first result for its target search keywords.

One of the best ways to climb the search engine rankings is with a domain name that includes your target keywords. For example, ChicagoPizzaDelivery.com should rank near the top of the results for keywords like “Chicago pizza delivery.”

Use Namecheap, GoDaddy or another domain registrar to search for local domains that could be of value to businesses in your city. Once you’ve found a winner, buy it and contact several local businesses that you think would be interested in owning it.

With a persuasive sales email, you’ll rarely struggle to find a local business owner that’s interested in acquiring a strategically valuable domain name. With the right focus on sales, this domain flipping strategy can be incredibly profitable.

Buy domains with PageRank

There’s more to SEO than just the keyword relevancy of your domain. Domains that were previously used for other websites but have since expired often have hundreds of backlinks and a reasonably high PageRank.

This makes them exceedingly valuable to SEOs interested in building links to their own websites or rebuilding the domain to attract search engine traffic. Expired or dropped domains with a PageRank of five or more are particularly valuable.

Finding domains with PageRank manually is incredibly time consuming, and you’ll rarely generate a good profit on your time. However, if you’re used to web scraping, you’ll find it easy to locate valuable PageRank domains in minutes.

Consider alternative TLDs

The days of .com, .net and .org being the only top-level domains worth considering are well and truly over. Today, every domain extension from .io to .us can be worth an incredible amount to the right domain investor.

If you spot a fantastic domain name that uses an unusual TLD, don’t shy away from it out of principle. With the popularity of domain hacks, an unusual top-level domain can often be worth just as much as the ‘gold standard’ .com extension.

Nairaland GeneralCivil Servants, Share Your Experience On Your Unpaid Salary by bobfash(op): 5:50pm On Jun 19, 2015
With the event in some state gradually becoming unbearable, having refused to pay the civil servant in their state. Civil servants in Oyo, Osun, Cross River, Rivers, Abia, Benue, Plateau and Bauchi states have adopted different strategies to survive months of unpaid salaries.

The strategies include begging for money from friends and relatives, securing loans from different sources and doing menial jobs to survive.

Some state governments, especially those led by the opposition All Progressives Congress and the Federal Government have been trading blame over the unpaid salaries of workers.

While the states attributed the development to the drop in federal allocations to them, the Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, accused them of not prioritising salary payments.

In Oyo State, for instance, where the government has not paid salaries for three months, some civil servants skip their lunch daily.


A few others, it was gathered, however report to their duty posts with garri and groundnuts which serve as their lunch.

With a million naira, a good transport company can take off and would conveniently pay back in the space a 12 months with interest! Am literally saying we can invest the ‪#‎9bn‬ in our transport section all over all the 774 local government by giving out a loan of a million to an average of 12 potential transportation agency / company in each of the 774 local government area in Nigeria.....it simply means #9bn can actually get to 9,000 people as a loan and each get a million naira as a loan.

He also adds: Spending #50,000 daily for fifty years one will not be able to exhaust one billion naira which means the senators and house of Representatives are willing to spend what will take an average Nigerian five generation to spend in just one year!
