Politics / Man, 24, Claims To Be Jonathan’s Son by busoye19: 10:53am On Jan 18, 2015
A report that emerged from an online blogger, Chukwudi Iwuchukwu, has alleged that one Ibime Belema-Jonathan, a 24-year-old native of Nembe, Baylesa State, has announced on the Twitter yesterday that he is one of the President’s illegitimate sons.

The report from the blogger said: “According to Belema-Jonathan, his mother was a receptionist in a Port Harcourt hotel (which shall remain undisclosed) when she met Goodluck nearly 25 years ago. Their relationship was made private because of the risks it posed to Goodluck’s then fledgling political career.”

According to the blogger, “He has decided to disclose this information after recently being informed by his mother, who had just passed away. It is his desire for his father to assume and fulfil his fatherly duties after a lifetime of absence”, that led to the revelation.

Even though the blogger, Chukwudi Iwuchukwu, who claims the Nigerian Law School, Lagos, has his address, admitted that, “we are in a season of political campaign and anything can come up, but the resemblance is striking.”

However, the Presidency through Dr Reuben Abati, the special adviser to the President on media, emphatically said that the President does not have any illegitimate son by whatever name, and dismissed the report, calling it a cheap propaganda from the opposition party.

According to Abati, the timing of the report, coming in the heat of election campaigns, shows the desperation of some people. “It is good for them to know that propaganda and cheap blackmails do not win elections. Nigerians know who they want and who they will vote for. Churning out such blackmail story will not win the election.
This is also coming at a time that the opposition parties signed the Abuja Accord meant to ensure that election campaigns are issue-based and do not degenerate into blackmail.”

Travel / A Town In USA That Has No Wifi Or Cell-phones Signals by busoye19: 9:31pm On Nov 17, 2014
In this rural speck of hyper-connected America, you're more likely to hear a cow moo than a cell phone ring.

That's because Green Bank is home to the world's most sensitive radio telescope, a device that catches the birth and death of stars and signals so faint they are mere whispers from space.

And, since the electronics of mobile phones and WiFi grids would mess with that delicate task, here technology that's taken for granted in much of the world is severely restricted or banned outright.

And a side effect of that radio silence is that Green Bank, population 143, has become a mecca for people who are sick - literally - of electromagnetic waves.

They claim the migraines and other ailments they blamed on cell phones go away.

Charles Meckna, 53, is one such refugee. He moved here in July from Nebraska in the Mid-West, fleeing electromagnetic waves he said were making him seriously ill.

For him, the radio telescope is a saviour.

"If we happen to lose the radiotelescope, it's done," Mecka said, as he built a shed outside his small home in this town 350 kilometers east of Washington, DC.

Green Bank and the area around it in Pocahontas County are in the heart of a so-called "Quiet Zone" declared in 1958 to shield scientists' super-keen eye on the universe.

Standing 150 meters tall, with a white dish 100 meters in diameter, the telescope operates day and night capturing signals from space.

"We can look at the birth of stars, the death of stars," said Michael Holstine, business manager at what is formally known as the National Radio Astronomy Laboratory.

"This is the most sensitive radio telescope on the planet," he said.

It can detect a signal that has the equivalent energy to the impact of one snowflake hitting the ground. But to achieve that, the radio environment has to be hush-hush quiet.

A one-of-a-kind "National Radio Quiet Zone" is observed around the telescope over an area of 33 000 square kilometres.

Radio transmissions have to be at a frequency as low as possible.

In a radius of 16 kilometers around the telescope, anything that gives off a radio wave - WiFi, cell phones, TV remote controls or micro-wave ovens - is banned or restricted.

When you are trying to monitor a quasar, for example - super-distant, massive celestial objects that give off tremendous amounts of energy - a cell phone signal is like a loud, bothersome noise, Holstine said.

"A quasar typically gives a signal which is a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a watt. A cell phone is about two watts," he said.

"It will completely drown out what the astronomers are trying to receive," he added.

Electromagnetic hypersensitivity

The bottom line for non-astronomer earthlings is that dozens of people have come here seeking relief from an ailment called electromagnetic hypersensitivity.

A former construction foreman, Meckna now lives with his wife a few miles from the telescope.

He had been sick since the 1990s but took a long time to conclude the culprit was his cell phone.

"I didn't even make the correlation," he said, adding that the beginning of his woes his doctor gave him anti-depressants.

He suffered nausea, migraines and irregular heartbeat every time he got near a Wifi source. After two weeks in Green Bank, the headaches went away.

"I feel much better. I can have a life again," said Meckna.

Still, it is not all gravy. Rather, he feels a bit trapped. "I am a prisoner and I hate it," he said.

Diane Schou, who also suffered after an antenna was set up near her farm in Iowa, said she was essentially forced to come to Green Bank, her home since 2007.

"There is really no choice - to live here or to live elsewhere and have headaches," said Schou, who is in her 50s.

Her pain was so awful she spent a time living inside a room built by her husband as a sort of "Faraday cage" - an enclosure built of conductive material, in her case aluminium, that blocks electric fields.

"At least here, I feel I have a future. I can dream what I am going to do. I can invite people over," said Schou.

But she takes care to use any gadgets in her home with the utmost care.

She has a computer, which is hooked up to her landline phone and "very slow." She turns it on a few minutes every day to see emails from her husband, who comes to live with her a few months of the year.

Electromagnetic hypersensitivity, a growing source of concern in a world more connected each day, is not formally classified as a disease by the World Health Organisation (WHO), although it does acknowledge its existence.

Some studies blame electromagnetic waves but others call it a psychosomatic problem.

The WHO says it plans to carry out a formal assessment in 2016 of the risk posed by the world's billions of cell phones.

Back in Green Bank, at Trent's, a grocery store and gas station, the absence of cell phones is not a worry.

"We've never had cell phones here so I have never missed them," cashier Betty Mullenax said with a chuckle.

Politics / Boko Haram: Nigerian-born U.S Soldier Urges Jonathan To Suspend Gentility by busoye19: 4:55am On Nov 17, 2014
Ado-Ekiti : A Nigerian-born U.S. Army Captain, Sunday Adebomi, on Sunday said that war against Boko Haram could be won if President Goodluck Jonathan set aside his gentility.
Adebomi said in Ado-Ekiti that the war could be won if the Federal Government was determined to introduce a hard stand.
“There are several ways of wiping out the sect and end the killings. If government is determined to end Boko Haram today it will be achieved.
“Who are those in the sect that dare face the government? But unfortunately, I suspect there are some bigwigs behind these people.
“Mr President is being too gentle in his handling of the killings; but unfortunately, it is daily assuming dangerous dimension; gentility cannot win the war.
“Although gentility is not a crime but Mr President will have to be more aggressive because this is a security threat to the entire nation.
“Mr President will have to take a stand on the matter either to continue to tolerate the sect and leave Nigerians to be mourning every day with the several killings.
“Mr President should give a matching order to the military to wipe them off once and for all.
“Not until a strong stand is taken Nigerians may not be able to sleep with their eyes closed,” he said.
Adebomi said the military had been doing a good job in the affected states but “they are fighting unknown faces and faceless groups.
“Government will have to first identify the cause of the problem, the root, sponsors, as well as where and how these insurgents get their weapons.
“The security agencies do not also understand the terrain they are fighting the war because most of them are alien to the battle fields.
“They know nothing about the sect, how then will they fight such war and think they will win; it is difficult.”
The U.S. captain said he led over 5,000 U.S. soldiers to war during the Pre-Mobilisation in 2010 and expressed optimism that the sect could be wiped out.
He said that the sect meant nothing to the Nigeria security agencies if genuine commitment was there adding, “all they need is the Presidential directive.”
He appealed to President Jonathan to read the riot act to the governors of the affected states or be made to face the wrath of the Federal government.
Adebomi said that the President could also compel the governors in the states to account for each soul lost to the insurgents.
“What am simply saying is that the matter deserves an aggressive reaction; enough of a gentleman approach, because you don’t dialogue with faceless groups,” he said.
“The question we need to ask ourselves is: “When will enough be enough?
I woke up this morning with this thought in my mind asking Nigerians when enough will be enough.
“I ask the President when enough will be enough. I ask members of the Senate and House of Representatives when enough will be enough.
“Is it not time the government declared full state of emergency in the affected region?
“Since this insurgency, what concrete intelligence step has the government taken apart from fire for fire exposing ill equipped military men and women to excessive fire power of Boko Haram.
“Let us ask, when will enough be enough? Nigeria is dripping blood on daily basis; it is time the government woke up to its task.”
Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states have been under the attack of the Boko Haram insurgents, loosing several lives and property.
Adebomi hails from Ise-Ekiti in Ise/Orun local government area of Ekiti and had been in the U.S. Army for almost two decades. (NAN)
