Science/Technology / Now, Buy Gifts Through Facebook by Johnakwehblog(m): 12:32pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
http://johnakweh..com/2015/08/social-networking-site-facebook-is.html Social networking site Facebook is testing a virtual assistant, called 'M', nestled within its Messenger that can help users buy gifts and make restaurant reservations. "Today (Thursday) we're beginning to test a new service called M. It is a personal digital assistant inside Messenger that completes tasks and finds information on your behalf," David Marcus, vice president of messaging products at Facebook, said. Mr Marcus said 'M' can perform tasks that no one else can and added that unlike other virtual assistants in the market like Apple's Siri and Microsoft's Cortana, 'M' can complete tasks on behalf of the users. "It can purchase items, get gifts delivered to your loved ones, book restaurants, travel arrangements, appointments and way more," said Mr Marcus. He added that the project was still at a very early stage but insisted it represents a major step forward in helping Messenger users have "more time to focus on what's important in their lives". Facebook Messenger is used by more than 700 million people worldwide. |

Celebrities / Jackie Chan To Visit Nigeria Sept. 4 by Johnakwehblog(m): 6:34pm On Aug 26, 2015 |
http://johnakweh..com/2015/08/famous-hong-kong-actor-and-stunt-artist.html Famous Hong Kong actor and stunt artist, Chan Kong-sang, popularly known as Jackie Chan will visit Nigeria on September 4, 2015. Jackie Chan who is also a film director, producer and singer will not visit Nigeria in person but as a leading screen character in Dragon Blade, directed by Daniel Lee. Dragon Blade is Chan's latest work that has been released theatrically in several countries of the world. It berths in Nigeria next month, with FilmOne acquiring the theatrical rights to exhibit it. Dragon Blade has remained a big hit since it was released last year. The movie headlined the 2014 Abuja International Film Festival where it won most of the top awards, including the best foreign film of the Fidelis Duker-led festival Critics who have seen the movie say the cinematographic splendor, sprawling battle scenes, unconvoluted story, memorable thrilling scenes, mind-blowing stunts with pints of comic relief synonymous with the legend makes Dragon Blade a movie worth seeing. Set in the year 48 BC, HuoAn (Jackie Chan) serves as the captain of the Protection Squad Silk Road. A Roman General named Lucius (John Cusack) flees to the East with his legion and Publius (Jozef Waite), heir of the ruling Roman Consul, to escape from the corrupt Emperor Tiberius (Adrien Brody), who plans to kill Publius and usurp the throne. They meet HuoAn at a frontier fort on the Silk Road, where they receive sanctuary. Tiberius and his army, who have pursued Lucius along the Silk Road, approach the fort with intention of killing Publius and ambitions of capturing and controlling the Silk Road. HuoAn decides to help Lucius and goes to his allies to recruit an army to fight against Tiberius. HuoAn arrives with reinforcements, and an epic battle like never seen before begins. According to the Chief Operating Officer of Filmone, Moses Babatope, also starring in the movie are other leading actors such as John Cusak (Golden Globe Winner), Adrien Brody (Academy Award Winner), Choi Si Won and Xiao Yang. Pointing that the film distribution company is pleased to be the distributor of the thrilling movie by the veteran actor Jackie Chan, Babatope said: "Certainly, he is a household name in Nigeria and indeed Africa, having achieved great things in his career. Now at 60, when people think he should be slowing down, the contrary is the case, as he has proven once more that that age has nothing to do with reaching your set goals. We are proud to be associated with this film and the Jackie Chan brand and we are confident that it will do well at the box office." |

Sports / Pedro: I Won't Be Missed At Barca by Johnakwehblog(m): 5:16pm On Aug 24, 2015 |
http://johnakweh..com/2015/08/pedro-i-wont-be-missed-at-barca.html The new Chelsea signing believes Luis Enrique's squad boasts more than enough quality to cope without him and admits facing them would be difficult New Chelsea signing Pedro does not believe he will be missed at Barcelona due to his former club's quality within the team. The Spain international enjoyed a memorable debut for the Blues when he scored in the 3-2 victory over West Brom after completing his transfer from the European champions last week, having grown tired of a role among the substitutes at Camp Nou. Speaking at a farewell press conference, the 28-year-old claimed he never thought the time would come to leave Barca but accepts his absence will not be keenly felt. "At the start it felt strange to wear the Chelsea shirt, because I had never imagined I would leave Barca," Pedro said. "I'm going with my head held high. I have always given my best, in every game and every training session. But I'm happy with what I have achieved and everything I have learned from my team-mates. "I don't think the team will miss me as there are great players here. I will miss them though, that's the sad part." Pedro lifted five Liga titles and three Champions Leagues in a glittering career at Camp Nou but he was reticent to name a favourite moment. "There are many [great memories]; it's hard to single out one. I have shared so many great times with some great players," he said. The Tenerife-born forward also underlined that the Barca board were eager for him to stay at the club, before admitting that facing his old team-mates would be an unwelcome feeling. "The board and the staff at Barcelona insisted that I stay, and for that I thank them," Pedro added. "I prefer not to return to the Camp Nou wearing another shirt. It would be strange. But if that's what destiny holds..." |

Sports / Usain Bolt Beats Gatlin To Win World 100m Title by Johnakwehblog(m): 3:47pm On Aug 24, 2015 |
http://johnakweh..in/2015/08/bolt-beats-gatlin-to-win-world-100m.html Usain Bolt produced perhaps his greatest miracle of all as he put a troubled build-up behind him to beat two-time doper and clear favourite Justin Gatlin to retain his world 100m title, BBC reports. The controversial Gatlin came into the final on a 28-race unbeaten run and apparently relishing his role as the sport’s bad guy. But at the same Bird’s Nest stadium in Beijing where Bolt announced himself to the world with two Olympic golds and two world records in 2008, the Jamaican superstar came past a faltering Gatlin at the death to snatch victory by one hundredth of a second. Bolt’s 9.79 seconds was more than two tenths off his world record, but this was a night for athletics to celebrate victories rather than times. Canada’s Andre de Grasse and young American Trayvon Bromell were both awarded bronzes in 9.92secs. Few noticed. This was once again the Bolt show, even as the world doubted him, even as his own struggles this summer continued in a semi-final when he stumbled and almost fell. Gatlin had looked unbeatable in running 9.77secs in his own semi-final, but starting out in lane seven – US team-mate Tyson Gay between him and Bolt in five – he was the slowest of the main contenders from the block. In every race this season his technique has been as certain as his reception has been chequered. Yet, with Bolt out faster and level with him at 50m, he tightened up horribly in the last 30 metres and staggered through the line as Bolt flew through. The characterisation of this showdown as good versus evil was always overplayed. Neither is it redemption for a sport when the final contained three other men who have also returned from doping bans. Yet it is another reminder, if any were needed, of both Bolt’s peerless competitive and athletic abilities and how much his sport owes him. Reigning Olympic and world champion Bolt had struggled for form throughout 2015, with his best time of the year coming into the final a run of 9.87secs at London’s Anniversary Games in July. “This means a lot because I’ve been struggling all season, it’s taken me a while to work things out,” Bolt told BBC Sport. “It’s been up and down but it’s OK now.” |
Crime / Report: Man Burnt Alive By Angry Mob For Stealing Soup by Johnakwehblog(m): 2:49pm On Aug 24, 2015 |
A mob repeatedly stabbed and burned alive a man for stealing a pot of soup in southern Nigeria, local media reported on Monday. The unidentified victim's charred corpse was left outside a secondary school after his death on Sunday in the south-eastern port city of Calabar, the national " ThisDay" newspaper reported. The paper said he was part of a three-man gang who smelt the soup warming before dawn and followed the aroma to the kitchen of a private residence. A woman who had been at the stove as they took the pot shouted for help and the three were chased by neighbours as they tried to escape. The mob caught up with the man holding the soup and attacked him with machetes before setting him on fire. "This is not the first time they have come to our compound to steal. Last week, they removed the car battery of one of our neighbours," a resident of the area was quoted as saying. Local police condemned the killing, according to ThisDay, which quoted an officer as saying "every suspect is presumed innocent until proven guilty". Vigilante activity is a controversial subject in Nigeria, which created crime-fighting militias across the south in the early 2000s to work alongside Nigeria's overstretched federal police. Civilian gangs have since served as political enforcers around the country, triggering warnings from rights groups of the dangers of mob rule. A state-backed vigilante group known as the Bakassi Boys executed 36 suspected robbers in Anambra State, southern Nigeria, in 2001. More recently, vigilante groups have emerged with the encouragement of the military in the northeast, the stronghold of Boko Haram's Islamist insurgency. http://johnakweh..in/2015/08/report-man-burnt-alive-by-angry-mob-for.html |

TV/Movies / A Nairalander's Must Read: World's Top-paid Actors by Johnakwehblog(m): 4:35pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
http://johnakweh..in/2015/08/there-are-more-similarities-between.html There are more similarities between Robert Downey Jr and his richie rich cinematic alter ego Tony Stark. The Hollywood star was named the world's top-earning actor on Tuesday by Forbes, taking first place on a list that featured leading men from Bollywood as well as Hollywood for the first time. Downey, 50, earned an estimated $80 million between June 2014 and June 2015, spurred by the success of this year's superhero ensemble Avengers: Age of Ultron, which grossed more than $1.3 billion worldwide. Second-place honours went to veteran Chinese actor and martial arts star Jackie Chan, 61, who Forbes said had earned $50 million in the past year from Hollywood and China co-productions such as Dragon Blade as well as merchandise. Vin Diesel got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame earlier this year. Chan came in ahead of Hollywood stars Vin Diesel, who grabbed third place with $47 million mainly due to his stake in the Fast and Furious franchise, as well as Bradley Cooper, Adam Sandler and Tom Cruise. Sandler, 48, whose most recent big budget film Pixels performed poorly in the global box office, still earned $41 million over the past year, in part due to his production deals with Sony studios and Netflix. Bollywood actors Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar, all staples of Indian cinema, also featured in the top 10, with 72-year-old Bachchan and 49-year-old Khan tying at No. 7 with $33.5 million each. Kumar, 47, came in at No. 9 with $32.5 million. Forbes collates its earnings lists using figures from sources such as Nielsen, Box Office Mojo and IMDB, and calculates earnings by deducting estimated taxes and management fees. It will publish a list on the world's highest-paid actresses at a later date. Culled from: http://johnakweh..in/2015/08/there-are-more-similarities-between.html. |

Science/Technology / Haha: Say Goodbye To Twitter's 140-character Limit For Direct Messages by Johnakwehblog(m): 2:45pm On Aug 13, 2015 |
www.johnakweh..com You know the situation. You want to send your mate a Direct Message on Twitter, but you've got a lot to say for yourself and you run out of... ...characters. So you have to do it in two or three chunks - well not any more. The social network's removing the 140-character limit on private messages to let users "express themselves" more freely. The feature's being rolled out for DMs around the world. It's the first time the site's removed the limit on any of its features, but it says there's no plan to do the same for public posts. Twitter's co-founder Jack Dorsey recently admitted the service wasn't doing enough to make the site better for users and attract new interest. It's currently has 300 million global users, compared to Facebook's 1.4 billion. Sachin Agarwal, Twitter's product manager for DMs, hopes it'll make people more expressive on the site. "I think in the past you might have felt constricted by 140 characters and so you had to cut out a word here or there, but now you end up with these longer messages where people are really able to get their point across and do it in a more funny way," he says. "They can add more emojis, more photos, things like that, which just let them be a little more richer in their expression." He says he wants it to feel like a more "casual chatting platform" to "compliment" the public side of the site. |

www.johnakweh..com A lion and lioness are sitting in their den, when a monkey climbs up a nearby tree and starts insulting the mighty lion. The lioness starts to get angry and says, LIONESS:”King of the jungle, how dare you allow this puny monkey to insult you? You must punish him.” LION:”You are right, but you know what? I am king of the jungle and I must not lower myself to his level. Let’s ignore it.” The lioness, astonished, sat in silence. Yet the monkey kept on. After sometime, the lioness loses her patience. LIONESS:”I cannot allow this any longer. I’m going to teach that monkey a lesson.” So the lioness chases after the monkey. After a long chase she finds herself out of the jungle and at a construction site. She sees the monkey going through a narrow pipe and leaps in after him. The pipe apparently was not large enough, and the lioness gets stuck. Seeing that the lioness is stuck, the monkey walks around behind her. MONKEY:”Who’s a bad girl? Who’s a bad girl?!!” he yells as he spanks her butt over and over and over. The monkey continues for a few minutes and then finally leaves with a big smile on his face. After an hour long struggle, the lioness finally frees herself from the pipe. Injured, and completely embarrassed, she returns home to the jungle and to her king.

Science/Technology / Interesting: Lake Found On Planet Mars?? (MUST READ) by Johnakwehblog(m): 2:28pm On Aug 11, 2015 |
Researchers have discovered evidence of an ancient lake on Mars that likely represents some of the last potentially habitable surface water ever to exist on the red planet. Researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder, examined an 18-square-mile chloride salt deposit in the planet's Meridiani region near the Mars Opportunity rover's landing site. Large-scale salt deposits are considered to be evidence of evaporated bodies of water. "This was a long-lived lake, and we were able to put a very good time boundary on its maximum age," said Brian Hynek, a research associate at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) at CU-Boulder and lead author of the study. "We can be pretty certain that this is one of the last instances of a sizeable lake on Mars," Hynek emphsised. Digital terrain mapping and mineralogical analysis of the features surrounding the deposit indicate that this one-time lake bed is no older than 3.6 billion years old, well after the time period when Mars is thought to have been warm enough to sustain large amounts of surface water planet-wide. Planetary scientists believe that the solar system was formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago. Based on the extent and thickness of the salt, the researchers estimate that the lake was only about eight percent as salty as the Earth's oceans and therefore may have been hospitable to microbial life. "By salinity alone, it certainly seems as though this lake would have been habitable throughout much of its existence," Hynek added. The study was published in the journal, Geology. http://johnakweh..in/2015/08/lake-found-on-planet-mars.html |
