Foreign AffairsRe: Rwanda Closes One Week Of Genocide Memorial Mourning Today by intrepid(op): 1:18pm On Apr 13, 2016
Muafrika2:

Terrible experience. Nothing as traumatic as a country turning lawless.
It was one of the most terrible,cruel,heartless and barbaric event in history.What we watch in those movies is nothing compared to what actually happened here.

It would be too graphic for any film maker to reproduce some of the events that occurred In Rwanda in those 3 short months.

But they are trying to wave it behind them and move forward.

Foreign AffairsRwanda Closes One Week Of Genocide Memorial Mourning Today by intrepid(op): 10:39am On Apr 13, 2016
Twenty-two years ago on this very day, Adelphine Mukabayizere was a normal six-year old girl, enjoying the love of her parents and her seven siblings in Rusizi District (then known as Commune Kamembe) in the Western Province.

By the time that the fastest genocide in history ended one hundred days later, after the Rwandan Patriotic Front defeated the genocidal government of the time, Adelphine had lost her father, a brother and two sisters.

Technology MarketFacebook Unveils Their 3D Camera At F8;seen It? by intrepid(op): 8:07am On Apr 13, 2016
Have you seen Facebook's 3D camera?
It will be unveiled at F8 conference.It captures two hours of 360 degree video, but Facebook "doesn't want to be in the camera business"—so it's all open source.

One of the highlights of Facebook's F8 conference on Tuesday was its unveiling of a 360-degree video camera and software system.


The camera, which will cost at least $25,000 to build, includes 17 different capture devices that are synchronized, and can record two hours of 360-degree video at up to 60 frames per second, as much as 8k per eye.
Facebook is also releasing software that stitches the footage together seamlessly.
Both the hardware and software, as well as the stitching code, are open source projects. Developers will have access to the system on GitHub starting this summer.

Facebook is open-sourcing the camera to "accelerate the growth of the 3-D-360 ecosystem—developers can leverage the designs and code, and content creators can use the camera in their productions," said Chris Cox, Facebook's chief product officer.

This is amazing.Isn't it?What is your take on that? Your comment is welcome.

braimeddy:
Is there any evidence that he was shot by the police? It's very possible that his rival used this opportunity to knock him down. And moreover I don't think policemen are foolish enough to use real bullets for students who protesting peacefully. Even though it was the police that actually killed him, more that 1 student would be dead. My observation is that his killing is a set up by his rivals

CrimeWill Smith Shooting As Of Sunday Night by intrepid(op): 5:44am On Apr 11, 2016
The suspect charged with fatally shooting New Orleans Saints defensive end Will Smith once sued a retired police officer, who had dinner with Smith shortly before he was shot Saturday night, authorities said.

The officer, retired Capt. William Ceravolo, was not on the scene of the crash, and police are investigating whether Smith's dinner companion played a part in the motive for the shooting, but investigators "don't have any info that links the incidents at this time," New Orleans police spokesman Tyler A. Gamble told NBC News.

WebmastersRe: What Is The Meaning Of "Unlimited Domains"? by intrepid(op): 3:34pm On Apr 09, 2016
Ben1975:
Hi Intrepid

No it doesn't mean you can host another website on the same domain. What it means it that you have no restrictions on the amount of domains you can add to your account.

You can then add websites to those domains (assuming you have paid for the web hosting for each of the domains or it comes with the package). But remember each domain you add will have to be paid for.

What type of account is it? Is it a standard account or a reseller account where you can sell hosting to people?

Sincerely

Ben Ajose
Thanks Ben,. No, it's not a reseller account. Just accounts for my different blogs but I was thinking if it was possible to host other sites on it... Lol

And so, please explain the domain stuff. What is meant by adding other domains to it.

Can I use it to host sales page? How? Thanks

Christianity EtcArchbishop Of Canterbury:DNA Test Reveals His Real Father by intrepid(op): 3:27pm On Apr 09, 2016
ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY'S DAD WAS CHURCHILL'S PRIVATE SECRETARY

Following media reports, I have released the following personal statement:

A PERSONAL STATEMENT FROM THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY JUSTIN WELBY

In the last month I have discovered that my biological father is not Gavin Welby but, in fact, the late Sir Anthony Montague Browne.

This comes as a complete surprise.

My mother (Jane Williams) and father (Gavin Welby) were both alcoholics. My mother has been in recovery since 1968, and has not touched alcohol for over 48 years. I am enormously proud of her.

My father (Gavin Welby) died as a result of the alcohol and smoking in 1977 when I was 21.

As a result of my parents’ addictions my early life was messy, although I had the blessing and gift of a wonderful education, and was cared for deeply by my grandmother, my mother once she was in recovery, and my father (Gavin Welby) as far as he was able.

I have had a life of great blessing and wonderful support, especially from Caroline and our children, as well as a great many wonderful friends and family.

My own experience is typical of many people. To find that one's father is other than imagined is not unusual.

To be the child of families with great difficulties in relationships, with substance abuse or other matters, is far too normal.

By the grace of God, found in Christian faith, through the NHS, through Alcoholics Anonymous and through her own very remarkable determination and effort, my mother has lived free of alcohol, has a very happy marriage, and has contributed greatly to society as a probation officer, member of the National Parole Board, Prison Visitor and with involvement in penal reform.

She has also played a wonderful part in my life and in the lives of my children and now grandchildren, as has my stepfather whose support and encouragement has been generous, unstinting and unfailing.

This revelation has, of course, been a surprise, but in my life and in our marriage Caroline and I have had far worse.

I know that I find who I am in Jesus Christ, not in genetics, and my identity in him never changes.

Even more importantly my role as Archbishop makes me constantly aware of the real and genuine pain and suffering of many around the world, which should be the main focus of our prayers.

Although there are elements of sadness, and even tragedy in my father's (Gavin Welby’s) case, this is a story of redemption and hope from a place of tumultuous difficulty and near despair in several lives.

It is a testimony to the grace and power of Christ to liberate and redeem us, grace and power which is offered to every human being.

At the very outset of my inauguration service three years ago, Evangeline Kanagasooriam, a young member of the Canterbury Cathedral congregation, said: “We greet you in the name of Christ. Who are you, and why do you request entry?”

To which I responded: “I am Justin, a servant of Jesus Christ, and I come as one seeking the grace of God to travel with you in His service together.” What has changed? Nothing!

WebmastersWhat Is The Meaning Of "Unlimited Domains"? by intrepid(op): 1:06pm On Apr 09, 2016

Foreign Affairs#ResignCameron Hashtag Trends Because Of Panama Papers by intrepid(op): 11:28pm On Apr 08, 2016
People who steal us blind here are celebrated because they are from our tribe,while we suffer.Not so with these folks here.They want accountability and they demand integrity.

David Cameron is facing calls to resign after admitting he owned shares in his father's Panamanian trust with his wife Samantha, and selling them in 2010 for around £30,000.

Cameron owned about 5,000 units in the Blairmore Investment Trust but insists they were above board. He also defended his father, saying criticism of him was unfair. However Labour MP John Mann called on the prime minister to quit.

WebmastersFacebook Makes Another Good Move by intrepid(op): 10:56pm On Apr 08, 2016
As more and more online content ends up hosted on Facebook, it becomes more important for Facebook to provide ways for publishers and creators to make money.

That’s why some changes announced today to the social network’s branded content and ads policies could be a big deal.


Under the new rules, verified Facebook Pages can now share branded content (i.e., “any post — including text, photos, videos, Instant Articles, links, 360 videos, and Live videos — that specifically mentions or features a third party product, brand, or sponsor”) on Facebook.


Who will be affected by this change? Well, verified Pages are usually owned by big brands, publishers, celebrities and other influencers, though there are exceptions.

CultureNational Beer Day:Ever Heard That Before? by intrepid(op): 8:43am On Apr 08, 2016
I am almost sure that you may never have heard that there is a day called BEER day.Yes.It is April 7 and it is celebrated as the national beer day in the United States.

What actually is it all about?

National Beer Day is an official holiday in the United States celebrated every year on April 7, and marking the day in 1933, the first day in 13 years, that people could legally buy, sell, and drink beer.

It is recognized nationwide among beer enthusiasts like Big Dom and Fugatti.

National Beer Day is a celebration of the Cullen–Harrison Act being signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on March 22, 1933. Upon signing the legislation, Roosevelt made his famous remark, "I think this would be a good time for a beer."

This culture or celebration shouldn't be imported into Africa at all.....

What do you think?

Foreign AffairsRe: Sometimes In April: Rwanda Remembers The Genocide 22 Years After(pics) by intrepid(op): 7:31am On Apr 07, 2016
Exactly. Prior, to the invasion of the white man, these people were living peacefully, though there was still local rivalry as is in many African societies but they didn't hate themselves to the point of one wanting to exterminate the other. As a matter of fact, it seemed like they didn't even recognize any difference among themselves.

The white man helped them see that they weren't one, and many of them regret it today. It was one of the most horrible display of the beast in the human heart.
Foreign AffairsSometimes In April: Rwanda Remembers The Genocide 22 Years After(pics) by intrepid(op): 4:38am On Apr 07, 2016
Many people who will read this article have heard about the movie with that title. Many may have not only heard about it but watched it too.

I still recall the deep indescribable emotions that overwhelmed me the first time I saw the movie. I had earlier seen “Hotel Rwanda” before it and later, I also saw “Shooting Dogs”. They taught me a lot about life and people. They taught me about what hatred could cause and the capacity of the human heart to perpetrate evil. I knew then man could commit any conceivable evil, no matter how atrocious. It can be considered and can equally be executed.

The Rwandan genocide is one of the heaviest moments in human history.Never will such
evil be allowed to happen again. The commemoration began on the 6th of April.They call the memorial KWIBUKA.

What is KWIBUKA?Find out.

Music/Radio26 Most Influential Young Vloggers;13-year-old Nigerian Is Among by intrepid(op): 9:58am On Apr 06, 2016
You may not have heard that word VLOGGING before,huh? It simply means VIDEO BLOGGING.

And it is making videos of just about anything of interest to you and putting it out there for the world to see.

I wrote about Zoe Sugg popularly known as Zoella last year and i am sure you must have read about this wonderful girl.

However,i am giving you a cool list to enjoy.See what they do,how they do it and how you too can if you want.

From number one UK vlogger Zoella's first novel selling more copies than Harry Potter in its first week of sales (amid much controversy ) to BBC Radio 1 hiring the popular vloggers Tyler Oakley, TomSka and (obviously) Zoella to present shows in a bid to cling on to younger listeners, it seems these youthful YouTubers have tapped into an incredibly lucrative audience.

HealthThe Real Reason Why Women Live Longer Than Men. by intrepid(op): 8:39am On Apr 05, 2016
I have heard it said several times that it is better to marry a woman who is 10 years younger than the man because not only do women tend to age faster,the man also has the chances of dying earlier.And it usually happens that the man's age and the woman's may seem same as they grow together.

Is there something in the Y chromosome that makes men more susceptible to aging and disease? Probably not, say researchers. The fact that women in the U.S. live an average of 5 years longer than men can't be explained by physiological differences.


But cultural pressure to act "masculine" may keep men from complaining, even when they're sick or injured, Mental Floss reports. According to new studies published in Preventive Medicine and The Journal of Health Psychology, men are less likely than women seek medical treatment when they're experiencing symptoms. Men tend to downplay their pain and, as a result, have more serious health problems later in life.

From a young age, boys are told repeatedly to "be a man" and "man up;" They're encouraged to suppress emotions, hold back tears and never complain.


Its all about educating you and equiping you with basic facts about life and living.

Science/TechnologySee The Massive Weapons Astronauts Have In Space(pics) by intrepid(op): 7:13am On Apr 05, 2016
I was just wondering why all the fear even when man has produced the best weapons that can clear civilization in minutes.Could it be fear of the unknown or simply to put up a formidable arsenal up there just in case of anything happening don here? One can call it 'piling' or assembling of weapons.

We haven’t been notified of hostile aliens hovering in the upper atmosphere, yet after looking at a few of the weapons astronauts have packed, you really start to wonder what they’re so worried about.
Of course, the alternative is that someone slips through the rigorous psychological testing of NASA and terror ensues on ISS.

A woman who says she was body-shamed by doctors and nurses while on the operating table — and that she has an audio file, from a recorder hidden in her weave, to prove it — is speaking out about the “physical, mental, and emotional scars” it has caused her.

“When you are lying there and these people have you uncovered and you trust them and they speak like this, it’s a bad situation,” Ethel Easter, of Houston, tells Yahoo Beauty through tears about her experience at Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital in Houston, where she had hernia surgery in August to help correct a severe case of acid reflux.

PoliticsDeath Of The "Internet" Is Here by intrepid(op): 10:14am On Apr 03, 2016
The folks responsible for the entries in the Associated Press Stylebook have announced that the word “Internet” will no longer be UPPERCASED, thus breaking my heart and making some of our writers very happy.

The AP Stylebook, which many newspapers and websites (one word? really?) use to guide their style efforts, defines Internet as “a decentralized, worldwide network of computers that can communicate with each other.”

It’s a pretty big definition and has warranted the glory of a capital I. But no more. And that’s not all. The AP Stylebook has also decided to lowercase “Web.”

The changes, which were not announced on April Fools’ Day, are to take effect on June 1 when the 2016 edition of the style guide is released. Then, and only then, will “Internet” join other inexplicable changes the style guide has made in the recent past, including “more than” versus “over” and “underway” versus “under way,” both of which still vex me.
At least it still thinks “literally” means literally and not “figuratively.”
