I have noticed that Palm oil is now very red as compared to the slightly dull red back in the old days. The gtoundnut oil is no longer golden yellow but looks like bleach or kerosene. Don't even get me started on bread, don't touch it anymore. I remember while growing up I could eat tomatoes my Mum bought from the market; it had a rich taste. But the tomatoes now has a funny taste. About the melon, its true. I have seen someone mixing grounded melon with something and them selling it.

I want to point out that cases of kidney failure is on the rise. Have seen cases of 15 to 30 year old men and women requiring dialysis and talking about kidney transplant. They would talk about peopl sending something from their village without realizing its from what they eat.

I pity those that visit road side chemist and ask for "drug mixtures".

US prosecutes '$6bn money-laundering hub'
Domain seizure Liberty Reserve's web domains were seized during the raids

The Liberty Reserve digital money service that was shut down laundered more than $6bn (£4bn) in criminal cash, US authorities have said.

Weekend police raids in 17 countries scooped up Liberty Reserve's owners, operators and its computer hardware.

The Department of Justice said it was the "largest international money-laundering prosecution in history".

Liberty had about a million users and processed more than 55 million illegal transactions, said DoJ court papers.
Cash transfer

The documents allege that seven people involved in running Liberty Reserve set up the digital cash service as a "criminal business venture" designed specifically to "help criminals conduct illegal transactions and launder the proceeds of their crimes".

The raids in the US, Spain, Costa Rica and other countries led to the arrests of five of Liberty Reserve's principals, including its founder Arthur Budovsky.

US Attorney Preet Bharara: "Liberty Reserve was intentionally created and structured to facilitate criminal activity"

The service's operators will face charges of money laundering and operation of an unlicensed money transmission system. Also arrested were many of the principal operators of exchanges that fed cash to Liberty for distribution to members of criminal gangs or as the start of the laundering process.

The raids also garnered servers supporting the service and allowed the DoJ to seize the web domains through which the service was run.

Behind the scenes, data traffic for the sites from regular customers was directed to a series of virtual traps, known as sinkholes, that log information about who is trying to use the service.

In addition, it said, 45 bank accounts used by the service have been seized and action has been taken to take over the assets of 35 other sites that fed funds to Liberty Reserve for laundering.

Some details about the scale of the Liberty Reserve operation came to light in court documents unsealed by the New York office of the DoJ, which is leading the action against the service.

The digital money scheme run through the service was one of the world's largest, the DoJ said, and handled $6bn over the seven years it was in operation.

Liberty Reserve was so successful that it became a "financial hub of the cyber crime world", whose users were involved in credit card theft, investment fraud, hacking, child pornography and drug trafficking.

The shutdown has caused problems for legitimate users of Liberty Reserve, said Mitchell Rossetti, head of the EPay Tarjeta service that piggy-backed on LR.

"Thousands upon thousands of LR users are not nor have been involved in illegal activities," he said, "but now have become victims through the closure and seizure of LR."

"We seem to be acceptable collateral damage," he said. "We have committed no crime and want our funds returned to us."

Looking at the specs will say its a really nice phone though I'm eyeing that battery. If that price is accurate then I would recommend it to the N7, with the update and all. However, it seems manufacturers are not pushing the boundaries anymore. There's no wow factor, don't have a "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY" feeling to the phone.
Health › RANBAXY And Substandard Drugs by Leopantro(op): 3:58pm On May 27, 2013
please bear with me, this is very long but will be beneficial to doctors

For Indian generic-drug manufacturer Ranbaxy, the past five years have consisted of an escalating series of regulatory and legal woes. First the Food and Drug Administration banned the importation of pharmaceuticals from two of Ranbaxy's Indian plants. Then the U.S. Department of Justice slapped the company with a wide-ranging consent decree, citing the company's quality deficiencies. Then, in late 2012, Ranbaxy was forced to recall millions of pills of its generic Lipitor after glass particles were discovered in some of them. Finally, on May 13, the company pleaded guilty to seven federal criminal counts of selling adulterated drugs and making false statements to the U.S. government.

Through it all, its majority owner, giant Japanese drugmaker Daiichi Sankyo, has quietly stood by its decision to purchase Ranbaxy. Now, though, Daiichi Sankyo is taking a strikingly different stance, publicly suggesting it was defrauded in the $4.6 billion purchase in 2008.

In a press release on Wednesday, Daiichi Sankyo stated that it "believes that certain former shareholders of Ranbaxy concealed and misrepresented critical information concerning the U.S. DOJ and FDA investigations. Daiichi Sankyo is currently pursuing its available legal remedies and cannot comment further on the subject at this time."

MORE: Dirty medicine

The statement did not identify which shareholders Daiichi Sankyo might pursue. But it suggests the Japanese company might take legal action against Malvinder Singh, an Indian billionaire who was CEO of Ranbaxy in 2008 when he and his brother sold their 34% share in the company for $2 billion. Daiichi Sankyo bought another 30% via purchases from the company and a public tender offer. (The remaining shares continue to trade publicly.)

Daiichi Sankyo's press release comes in the wake not only of Ranbaxy's highly unusual criminal guilty plea and $500 million in fines and penalties -- the largest ever against a generic-drug maker -- but also a lengthy Fortune article that exposed for the first time the depth and extent of the fraud charges leveled at the company and the knowledge of senior company executives.

While the criminal case focused on sales in the U.S. market, Fortune's article last week exposed for the first time multiple accounts from current and former company insiders, backed by internal documents, showing how Ranbaxy committed systemic fraud in its worldwide regulatory filings. The article described how an internal investigation conducted by a company executive, Dinesh Thakur, who went on to become a whistleblower, reported appalling deceit: Ranbaxy scientists substituted cheaper, lower-quality ingredients in place of better ingredients, manipulated test parameters, and even bought brand-name drugs and used them in place of their own generics to win FDA approval.

Thakur's investigation culminated with a presentation to a subcommittee of the Board of Directors by Thakur's boss Dr. Rajinder Kumar in late 2004. In a PowerPoint presentation, Kumar informed the board and the company's then-CEO, Brian Tempest, that Ranbaxy had lied to regulators and falsified data for more than "200 products in more than 40 countries." The PowerPoint noted that "elements of data [were] fabricated to support business needs," meaning that the company had submitted false data in order to win approval from drug regulators.

No market or type of drug was exempt, including medications purchased by the U.S. and World Health Organization as part of a program to fight HIV in Africa. In Europe, the presentation showed, the company used ingredients from unapproved sources, invented shelf-life data, and tested different formulations of the drug than the ones it sold. The PowerPoint also reported that in certain markets -- including Brazil, Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, Egypt, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Peru, and the Dominican Republic -- the company had simply invented all of its testing data.

MORE: Inside Syria's siege economy

One question posed by Fortune's article was whether Daiichi Sankyo knew the extent and depth of any fraud and the extent of Ranbaxy's problems with the FDA. In a 2010 interview with Fortune, Tsutomo Une, Daiichi Sankyo's head of global strategy, said, "I never thought that we were fooled." With its statement on Wednesday, Daiichi Sankyo appears to be saying it was, indeed, hoodwinked.

Daiichi Sankyo declined to comment. Ranbaxy and Malvinder Singh did not respond to requests for comment for this story. However, in previous comments to Fortune, a spokesman for Singh defended his conduct. In its Wednesday press release, Daiichi Sankyo stressed Ranbaxy's "improved business standards and quality assurance initiatives." As part of the same press release, Ranbaxy CEO Arun Sawhney stated, "Ranbaxy is a different company today. The steps we have taken over the recent years reflect the wide-ranging efforts of the current board and management to address certain conduct of the past and ensure that Ranbaxy moves forward with integrity and professionalism in everything we do." The statement added that the company has invested more than $300 million to upgrade its manufacturing facilities, instituted a new code of conduct for all Ranbaxy employees, and completely reconstituted its board of directors and executive team.

The title of this thread is android anyone? Its not tecno,htc or Samsung anyone. Back when we were in part one of the thread we didn't care what device you had, as long as it had android in it you were welcomed on board.

Considering that anyone can make an android device or Tablet now and the large fragmentation in android, do we need to segregate in android? The other day I read on Nairaland that Caterpillar and Casio now make android devices and phones. I don't believe that because you have an expensive android device you must be in the elite group. I have four different android devices but I don't mind helping anyone out in anything android related. As long as its android, I'm interested.

However, don't you dare insult anyone while comparing phones and such. I'm interested in the package and not the container it came in. So whatever company that designed your container, as long as its android, would help when and if I can.

My two cents

With all my tinkering with android files I have never come across that extension before. That its in your external SD card,it keeps re-occuring and is a folder not a file makes it more suspicious. It seems more like a PC virus than an android virus but what I find odd is this: PC viruses that get into memory cards of android phones can't replicate. My guess is there are more components of the virus hidden somewhere in your phone.
Copy out the essential files and apk. Back up only the contacts and your messages then format the memory card and do a factory reset of the phone for good measure.
By the way, did you connect your phone to a windows XP or vista computer?

Its either their servers are down or the service is currently being overloaded. Really hope their servers are not in Oklahoma if not it will be down for a long while. Was downloading orphan black when it occurred. However, some plugins in the video sections of xbmc, not navi, are working but no downloading.
