It's because of things like this, that people don't respect Nigerian lecturers and professors anymore.

They're hot.

2. Own A Minigun The United States
https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/9-3.jpg

Most people already know that Americans have fought for and won the right to carry assault rifles, but you might not realize just how far those rights go. Because, in America, you can even buy a minigun.

Miniguns, which were only ever intended to mow down thousands enemy troops, can fire up to 6,000 rounds per minutes —and you could have one in your own home. A loophole in the 1986 Firearm Owners Protection Act made it technically legal for American citizens to buy one for home protection.

You need a Class 2 license to get one, and they’re expensive and hard to track down, but anyone who’s determined enough can start protecting their home with a weapon that was built to take on the Viet Cong.

1. Drive A Tank England
https://i0.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/10-3.jpg

Technically, England isn’t the only place you can drive a tank. There are plenty of places in the United States that let customers go on a joy ride in an armored vehicle—some even letting you crush cars or drive through a mobile home.

England, though, takes it one step further—in England, tanks are road legal . You can drive a tank anywhere you want to go, whether you’re on your way to the grocery store or to pick up your kids after school.

You have to deactivate the weapons and have rubber tracks fitted on the wheels, but as long as you do that, you can take your tank anywhere you like. People do it, too. One man has even set up a “Tank Limo” that picks up customers and takes them wherever they want, so teenagers in England can really make an impression at prom.

5. Get A Government Employee To Help You Inject Heroin Canada
https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/6-4.jpg

If you look for it in downtown Vancouver, you’ll find InSite, a government building where addicts can legally inject heroin with the help of a medical professional.

You have to bring your own drugs to enter, but there’s no risk of arrest for visiting, and you can give the people there a fake name. Inside, you’ll find 12 injection booths, each equipped with a clean needle and sterile equipment. The medical staff will even help you find the right vein . Mostly, though, they stand there and watch you in case you overdose, to make sure you’re doing heroin safely.

The program started because, 20 years ago, Vancouver had the highest HIV rate in the developed world. It’s been a huge success. Some people even come back two or three times a day.

4. Sell Your Kidney Iran
https://i1.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/7-3.jpg

In Iran, people will put up posters around town advertising that they have a kidney for sale. They usually write their blood type and phone number, but some people get a bit more competitive. Some posters are splashed with bright, attention-grabbing colors. Others show off test results that prove their kidney is in good health. Some people even pull down the ads of competitors to make sure that, next time you need a kidney, you notice their poster first.

The practice is definitely controversial, but some claim it’s working wonders for Iran’s health care system. Since Iran opened up a kidney market, donor waiting lists have been completely eliminated.

3. Self-Identify As A Dragon Russia
https://i1.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/8-3.jpg

If you believe hard enough, you can call yourself a dragon anywhere. No one can force you to stop introducing yourself as Smoltar, the Golden-Scaled Dragon of the Dwarven Pass. In most places, though, you can’t force them to accept you as a dragon—except for in Russia.

On a Russian census, you can legally identify yourself as any ethnicity you want, even if it doesn’t exist . Young people often put themselves down as elves and hobbits, and older ones tend to register as Martians. Whatever they write, as far as the Census Bureau is concerned, is accepted as a fact.

In some ways, this has done some good. In southern provinces, several people have used the open space to classify themselves as Coassacks—registering themselves as a real ethnicity that just doesn’t show up as an option.

8. Attach A Flamethrower To Your Car South Africa

In South Africa, you can buy a product called the “Blaster”—a flamethrower that shoots out 20 meters (65 ft) of fire, custom designed to be fitted onto your car. The blast sends out a burst of flames on both sides of your vehicle and, according to ads, doesn’t damage your paint. It’s also completely legal.

At its worst, South Africa was getting about 13,000 carjackings each year, and so the country legally permits you to kill anyone trying to break into your car. The inventor, though, insists that it probably won’t actually kill anyone—it would just blind them.

The Blaster came out in 1998 and has since been taken off the market, but that’s not because it’s illegal. There just wasn’t enough demand. Anyone determined enough could probably still pick one up secondhand—or even start an automotive flamethrower company of their own.

7. Marry A Dog India
https://i0.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/4-3.jpg

In India, you can legally marry any animal you want. You aren’t limited to dogs—they just seem to be the most popular choice.
One man in New Delhi explained the process: As a child, he stoned and hanged two dogs, and he was convinced the illnesses he had later in life were punishments for his cruelty.

He visited a local astrologer about it, who told him he had only had one way to remove his curse—he had to marry a dog.

The man’s family approved. They even helped him pick out the best dog to be his bride. Then they threw a lavish wedding ceremony, complete with a feast, to celebrate the eternal union of man and dog.

6. Steal Art The Netherlands
https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/5-3.jpg

If you steal a priceless piece of artwork in The Netherlands, you needn’t resort to the black market to resell it. As long you can muster up a little patience, your stolen artwork will become legally yours. After 20 years, the statute of limitations for property theft is up, and they deal with that by just making the stolen property legally belong to whoever happens to have it.

It’s a little bit trickier if you steal from a public collection or a painting classified as part of their cultural heritage. For those major pieces, you have to wait 30 years before you’re off the hook. Still, it’s pretty doable. The police give art theft a low priority, so if you can hide a Rembrandt in your attic for a few decades, it’ll be yours.

Life can be restrictive sometimes. Sure, we have the freedom to pursue life and happiness but only within reason. If your happiness requires you to drive a tank naked while high on LSD, all that liberty starts to dry up.

Fortunately, there are some 196 countries in this world, all with their own values and sets of laws. No matter what you want to do, there’s somewhere in the world filled with people who think it’s perfectly fine.

10. Walk Around Naked Spain
https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/1-3.jpg

Spain has a reputation for nude beaches. Citizens and tourists from around the world scurry off to one of Spain’s many clothing-optional beaches, eager to enter the one place where they can cast off those constricting clothes without any pesky police telling them to cover up.

Most people don’t realize, though, that you don’t actually have to go to a nude beach. In Spain, you can legally be naked in any public place you want.

Since 1978, the constitution of Spain has not only guaranteed its people permission to walk around naked—it’s made it an inalienable human right. There have been attempts to change the law in the past, but none have gone through.

9. Take Every Drug On Earth Portugal
https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/2-3.jpg

Portugal has decriminalized every single drug in existence. This isn’t exactly the same as making it legal—if you’re caught with drugs, you could still be sent to a counsellor. You can’t go to prison, though, for having a personal stash of anything, whether you’re puffing marijuana or freebasing cocaine.

Portugal’s policy seems to work. Before decriminalization, they had a major problem with hard drugs—one in every 100 people were addicted to heroin. Within four years of decriminalizing drugs, drug-induced deaths went down
nearly 90 percent, and HIV rates plummeted.

Anyhow Na, what do you want to exchange with the Skyrim?

My lappy is currently out of commission, but I have two disks I can exchange with, Skyrim and Burnout Paradise.

Before blogging Nigerian journalism was already a disappointment.

Yes, a Nigerian is the co owner of Transsion holdings which owns Tecno, Infinix and Itel.

He's also the owner of Slot.

Use the biological method, just like you would introduce cats to get rid of rats, you should get venomous snakes into your home

TechEnthusiast:
Lenovo A6000 has android 6.0 update (cm13)

Really? it does now? well, that's too little too late for me now.

Lenovos are actually very good devices, I've used two of them, The A3300 and the A6000, both were worth their prices, the main problem I have with Lenovo is the lack of OS updates, both devices are stuck on KitKat, which is particularly annoying for the A6000 because they had released Lollipop updates initially but when the update turned out to a lot of problems they just pulled it and left it like that.

But the Lenovo devices I've used are both of them durable and reliable, with dependable batteries.

Ok, I have a good phone for sale, but you're too far away.

Where are you?

Thanks every one, i cn now login to my fbk acct. @ zicoflex and khalhokage Thanks nd God bless u guys

You're welcome. How did you solve the problem?

Joel3:
then phone markers still have a long way to go.

You obviously know very little about how cameras work, so bye bye.

There's Nokia 808 Pureview™ (Symbian), Samsung S4 Zoom(Android) And Nokia 1080 Pureview™ (Windows).

These are not the best smartphone cameras today but I don't think you'll find any other phone that will give you zoomed in pictures that aren't blurry or pixelated.

Also you shouldn't be looking at phones for DSLR quality photos, most phones (only a few exceptions) use digital zoom for their cameras, which is basically cropping the photos in real time.

But the S4 Zoom utilizes optical zoom, while both Pureviews make use of oversampling.

Lol, Chee chumchin, na because of the chronic konji wey hold Supes.

pr0blem:
I think the price is high because of the battery power

I don't think so, I think it's supposed to be for the storage, because the 256gb version the exact same battery capacity and everything else is more than twice the price, but the extra 128gb isn't worth $1440 anywhere.

UnknownT:
"Since the start of Exercise Python Dance, there has not been any case of gridlock and associated insecurity on the Asaba-Onitsha Bridge." Which kin lie be this? I have never seen any army checkpoint that is not prone to gridlock. They will block half of the road with drums and then place huge planks on the pavement. For that head bridge, my colleagues that passed thru there confirmed that there was gridlock the days they plied the route

I mean seriously, what kind of obvious lie is that, head bridge was gridlocked when I went through on the twentieth and also on the 25th when my girlfriend did.

No headphone jack, no SD card port, Snapdragon 653 and selling for $1000? This phone is going to fail hard.

A simpler way would be to rename the containing folder with a dot "." in front, every file in that folder would be hidden, (rename "Folder" to ".Folder") and you can only access them through a file manager with the ability to show hidden files.

Alternatively, you can also create a new file using an appropriate file manager and name the file ".nomedia", every media file in that folder would be hidden.

Africa is undergoing a major facelift with the help of the Chinese and Africa 50 among many other investors and contributors. Africa50 is an investment vehicle established by the African Development Bank in line with the Declaration on the Program for Infrastructure Development in Africa. It is “an infrastructure fund that focuses on high-impact national and regional projects mostly in the energy, transport, ICT and water sectors”. With an obvious drive to develop the continent’s infrastructure, Africa already has some incredible mega-projects in the pipeline and the following are just some of the most breath-taking projects ever embarked on in not just the continent but the whole world.

1. Grand Inga Hydropower Project, Democratic Republic of Congo

Redefining the meaning of “mega-project” is the Grand Inga Dam, a complex hydropower project which could potentially power 40% of Africa. When completed, this dam will be the largest of its kind, with double the capacity of the Three Gorges dam of China (the current largest in the world). With a total cost of almost $100 billion, construction of Inga III (the first phase towards building the Grand Inga) is set to begin “by the end of 2016 or the start of 2017.” Commencement of construction has, however, had several false starts and in August, the World Bank withdrew its $73.1 million grant. Once Inga III is completed, the DRC will then begin building the Grand Inga Dam which is expected to be completed by 2025.

Worthy Mention: The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, Ethiopia

Ethiopia’s Renaissance Dam will generate 6,000 MW of electricity and will cost the government $4.7 billion.

2. Bagamoyo Port, Tanzania

At a cost of around $11 billion, Tanzania’s Bagamoyo Port is its show of eagerness to accept its economic expansion and even accelerate it. The port should be able to handle 20 million containers annually when completed and is being funded by China Merchants Holdings International and Oman’s State Government Reserve Fund. It has been described as a model to connect East Africa to China’s silk road and will be the biggest port in Africa. According to The Diplomat, “An integral part of the Bagamoyo project will be an Export Development Zone (EDZ) which will include the construction of an industrial city as well as upgrades to road and railway infrastructure.”

3. Konza Tech City, Kenya

Konza Tech City should be considered as Africa’s official invitation tendered to the future. The future is coming to Kenya and since 2008 when the Government of Kenya approved the creation of the City, the role of Africa in defining what future cities should look like has been asserted. The City will cost a big but worth it $14.5 billion. According to the city’s website, “Konza will be a sustainable, world-class technology hub and major economic driver for Kenya.”

Worthy Mention: Modderfontein New City Project, South Africa

The Modderfontein City has been described as the “New York of Africa” and will cost no less than $7 billion. It will be built on the outskirts of Johannesburg.

4. Jasper Solar Project, South Africa

Though it was completed in 2014, the Jasper Project
makes the list for its ground-breaking role in clean energy in Africa. It supplies 80,000 homes with clean solar-generated electricity of up to 96 Megawatts from 325,360 solar panels. That makes it the largest solar harvesting project in the whole continent.

5. Coastal Railway, Nigeria

Nigeria and China are partnering to build this 1,400km railway stretching from Lagos to Calabar. It has been described as one of the highest value rail projects in African history. The Government of Nigeria signed a memorandum of understanding with the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC). China Railway predicted the venture would create around 200,000 jobs for Nigerian locals during construction and 30,000 permanent jobs once the line had been completed.

Worthy Mention: Chad-Sudan Railway

This is another Chinese-funded railway which will connect landlocked Chad to the Red Sea.
