Christianity EtcIslam And Corona Virus by Greatgr(op): 9:37pm On Mar 11, 2020
Effect of the Epidemic
Saudi Arabia has restricted all international travel into the country due to concerns over the outbreak of Corona virus, which means that access to muslim holy sites in the cities of Mecca and Medina has been limited.

All muslims are supposed to participate in a journey to Mecca atleast once in their lifetime in the month of Dhul hijab, the twelfth month of the Islamic Calender called Hajj. And also the lesser hajj called Umrah which can be performed anytime of the year. The restriction will affect about 12 million Muslims across the world, which has meant cancellation of trips that are extremely important to their faith.

Chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus of WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of International concern on novel Corona virus nCoV on the 31st of January, 2020.

It has recorded over 40 imported cases and still counting, this due to people with the virus that moved to other countries. China has over 80000 confirm cases of people with the virus and over 3000 confirm death cases that amount to less than 4% death rate in China according to the WHO situation report.

Two days ago #NoBraDay and yesterday #NoPantDay which got a lot reaction on twitter today it is #GlobalHandWashingDay


Global Handwashing Day is an annual global advocacy day dedicated to advocacting for handwashing with soap as an easy, effective, and affordable way to prevent diseases and save lives.

Global Handwashing Day was founded by the Global Handwashing Partnership, and is an opportunity to design, test, and replicate creative ways to encourage people to wash their hands with soap at critical times. Global Handwashing Day is celebrated every year on October 15th.

The first Global Handwashing Day was held in 2008, when over 120 million children around the world washed their hands with soap in more than 70 countries. Since 2008, community and national leaders have used Global Handwashing Day to spread the word about handwashing, build sinks and tippy taps, and demonstrate the simplicity and value of clean hands. Since then, Global Handwashing Day has continued to grow. Global Handwashing Day is endorsed by governments, schools, international institutions, civil society organizations, NGOs, private companies, individuals, and more.

The 2019 Global Handwashing Day theme is “Clean Hands for All.” This year’s theme follows the push to leave no one behind in the Sustainable Development Agenda. Inequalities in handwashing facilities and effective handwashing promotion programs can put individuals at higher risk for diseases that impact their health, education, and economic outcomes. This year’s theme reminds us that we must be inclusive when addressing handwashing disparities.

Fashion#nopantday Is This For Real Pants Down Or Other Way by Greatgr(op): 1:40pm On Oct 14, 2019
NoPantDay

Legend has it that No Pants Day was created as a joke by a club at the University of Austin in Texas known as the Knighthood of Buh sometime in the 1980s. As the name makes plain, it was imagined as a day where people would walk around in their underpants.

Does it really means you do not wear pants or you pose to show you are on under wears only check the below pics for more clarity.
And also the video to confirm if she is actually on pants.

But some videos and images that have been shared on social media about the attacks are not all they seem.

BBC Africa debunks some of the videos that went viral, which are old or even from other countries, but are being used as evidence of current events in South Africa.

Foreign AffairsRobert Mugabe Granted National Hero Status And Official Mourning by Greatgr(op): 12:05pm On Sep 07, 2019
Three days of national mourning have begun in Zimbabwe following the death of former president Robert Mugabe.

Mr Mugabe, Zimbabwe's first post-independence leader, ruled until he was ousted by a military coup in 2017.

Despite this, his ruling Zanu-PF party has now declared him a "national hero".

Initially praised for broadening access to health and education for the black majority, Mr Mugabe later used violence against his political opponents and presided over Zimbabwe's economic ruin.

Internationally, the former independence guerrilla fighter had the reputation of a dictator, as his militias attacked political opponents and he forcibly seized land from white minority farmers to boost his popularity among voters.

His legacy has a been the subject of much debate since he died.

He remained popular among many voters even into his later years. He was removed from office only when he fired his deputy in favour of his wife, with many fearing he was preparing for a family succession rather than elections.

His former deputy Emmerson Mnangagwa became president, and has lauded Mr Mugabe since the first news of his death.

Mr Mnangagwa said the ruling Zanu-PF party had "accorded him the national hero status that he richly deserved".

No timeline has been announced for the burial, as authorities in Singapore work with the Zimbabwean embassy to fly Mr Mugabe's body home.

He had been receiving medical care in the city since April.

Foreign AffairsIs This Only What President Cyril Ramaphosa Has To Say On Xenophobia by Greatgr(op): 9:44am On Sep 05, 2019
Cyril Ramaphosa said in a broadcast on WEF Africa that the attack on foreigner is not justified, foreign own shops have been targeted and looted.
This has caused rift between south Africa and other African countries. Nigeria is sending special envoy to erase concern with Ramaphosa. The SA president says SA is home to all.

Cyril Ramaphosa said " We are also facing another huge challenge, the challenge of number of our people who have taken law into their own hands, much as they have certain grievances and I have said that taking action against people from other nation is not justified and should never be allowed in our beautiful country.

South Africa is home to all. And indeed we are not the only country that has become home for people who are fleeing from other nations, not countries like Uganda, they have millions of people from the surrounding countries who go there.

Countries like Kenya they also have millions of people who throng to their land and we South Africans we know that their quite a number of other foreign people who come to our country and we should make sure we live side by side with them.

If their are problems and challenges we should be able to find a way of addressing those problems and challenges, and indeed our own nationals as well, it does not mean we should take the law into our hands and attack people."

CelebritiesTrevor Noah On Xenophobic Attacks | The Bitter Truth For South Africans by Greatgr(op): 7:38pm On Sep 03, 2019
The celebrity pointed out that there are about 2.3 million Immigrants living in South Africa, this number includes Africans, Chinese, Bangladeshi, Indians, middle easterners, and Europeans who are not born in SA. He said out of this number, only 1.6 million are Africans.

According to him, the 1.6 million Africans mostly run small shops, vending, service industries etc. or hold small to mid - management level jobs and that these may lay claim to less than 0.00001% of the wealth in South Africa.

He stated that if South Africans have issues with anybody, it will be with white people in South Africa, who make up about 8.7% of the population and controls over 85% wealth.

“So, when I hear South Africans claiming that other Africans are competing with them on dwindling/scarce resources, I say that your anger and outrage is misplaced.

Science/TechnologyInnovation That Shows Japan Lives In The Future by Greatgr(op):
What's so special about Japan? Anyone who visits Japan will be amazed by something, like robots working as hotel staff or vending machines on every corner! � We’ve collected 20 outstanding innovations proving that Japan must be living in 3018!

Super toilets
Rice paddy art
Grooming dogs into cubes
Hello Kitty melon
Shoes designed like a bullet train
Expectations meet reality in Japan
Ice cream in a fish-shaped cone
Black fries
Portable ashtrays
Braille on beer cans
The most organized luggage pickup
Glow-in-the-dark tattoos
Park-and-Lock umbrella
Unattended produce stands
The country of vending machines
Multi-level parking lots
Capsule hotels
Seagaia Ocean Dome
Robot-run hotel
Smart bra


- Toilets in Japan, like their gadgets, are technologically advanced and user-friendly. Even the simpler ones still have built-in sinks on the tank and heated seats.
- The Japanese love everything that’s cute (or “kawaii” as they call it), like cats and anime characters with their large, adorable eyes. As for their pooches, the latest craze in Japan is to groom their dogs into perfectly trimmed cubes.
- High speed trains in Japan are designed like, well, a bullet, hence the name! These things can go up to 198 miles per hour and are known for their punctuality, comfort, safety, and efficiency.
- In Japan, they consider food preparation an art. A classic example is the glass display that showcases a restaurant’s dishes. In Japan, when you order food, it’s the same as what’s advertised!
- Most of us like our fries hot, crisp, and…black?! Nope, these charcoal-black fries aren’t burnt; they’re special fries made from a spicy black potato that you can buy at a café & bar in Kyoto.
- Inclusive Japanese brewers stamp the word “beer” in Braille on top of their cans, and they do it entirely out of sheer concern!
- Tattooing is a form of art in its own right, but Japan gave it an exciting twist. Known as “blacklight tattoos” or “UV tattoos,” this awesome ink uses a UV reactive fluoresce dye and comes to life when under UV light.
- “Mujin hanbai” or “unmanned stores” are a common site at roadsides in Japan. They’re a nice way for farmers to get rid of extra stock yet still make a nice coin for it.
- Japan is almost the same size as California, so they have to utilize the limited space they have. One of their solutions is intelligent parking systems started in 1965 by the Japan Parking System Manufacturers Association.
- If you wanna go to the beach but hate getting sunburned, then The Seagaia Ocean Dome is your answer for an unforgettable summer getaway. This is one of the world’s largest indoor waterparks and artificial beaches.
- “Smart bra” “knows” what its wearer feels and opens only when a woman is with someone she’s really into.

Magazine That pays $400 for writers


There is a human tendency of settling for less, and wanting to remain in one’s comfort zone. This was me. When I started writing, I was happy to just pay my monthly expenses. For some reason, I was afraid to venture out into unknown territories. Worse still, I felt like I did not deserve better opportunities because others were better than I was. But, I finally managed to get rid of my fears, and started approaching higher-paying markets.
Many writers struggle with similar kinds of fear but the secret lies in valuing your work, and looking for other people who will, too.

Kelvin Doe AKA DJ focus is from Sierra Leone and he loves inventing. Kevin is an extraordinarily talented kid. He literally goes to trash can find broken electronics parts and make stuff on his own. He does incredibly interesting things himself. In Sierra Leone they have not too much electricity, light will come up once in a week and the rest of the month dark.
