Hey guys, this question is for users of Nokia x6(Chinese version). Does Nokia x6 support MTN 4G network. MTN supports band 7(2600Mhz) according to its website but some other sites also say it supports band 20(800MHz). So, does it support MTN 4G in Nigeria? 1 Like |

Religion / Paris Terror Attack - T.b. Joshua Prophecy by maxben(m): 8:05pm On Jan 08, 2015 |
I got this from Prophet TB Joshua's Facebook page and YouTube channel. "We pray that God would strengthen all the family, friends and colleagues of those who lost their lives during the horrific terrorist attack on The Charlie Hebdo magazine offices in Paris, France earlier today." On Sunday 20th April 2014, during a Sunday service at The SCOAN, Prophet T.B. Joshua gave a prophetic message concerning an attack which he saw would occur in a French-speaking country. These were his words: "In a French country, this is France, I’m seeing an attack; there will be an attack there. They should take note of Wednesday and Thursday. I will ask them to play it on Emmanuel TV." The following week, during The SCOAN live service, on Sunday 27th April 2014, Prophet T.B. Joshua spoke further about the vision God had given him concerning the French-speaking country. He mentioned that the perpetrators were still in town and specified the location in which he saw the attack occur - Paris, the capital city of France. These were his words: "The nation, a French speaking country which I said last Sunday - these people are still in the town - French speaking. I was saying last week in Paris; that was the location I saw last week.” We pray that God would strengthen all the family, friends and colleagues of those who lost their lives during the terrorist attack on The Charlie Hebdo magazine offices in Paris, France on Wednesday 7th January 2015.

Health / First Ebola, Now Marburg. How Do We Stop Future Outbreaks? by maxben(m): 9:16am On Oct 10, 2014 |
Marburg, a virus similar to Ebola, has hit the radar in the African country of Uganda, raising concerns about another deadly outbreak. With two lethal viruses threatening public health, many are questioning why these contagions seem to be flaring up more often — and more important, what we can do to avoid them in the future. The current Ebola outbreak originated in West Africa and has killed more than 3,800 people, more than all other past outbreaks combined. The first Marburg death was confirmed recently in Kampala, Uganda. Both viruses cause hemorrhagic fevers and are passed from animals to humans, which has experts examining how humans and African wildlife interact. One mystery surrounding these viruses is where they live between outbreaks, when they aren't infecting humans, author and Ebola expert David Quammen told National Geographic. For example, health officials know Ebola likely goes dormant in an animal, called its "reservoir host," but they have yet to identify exactly which species. At least one of the suspects is the fruit bat, which is believed to host several other viruses (including Marburg and SARS) without getting sick. These bats usually live in large, tightly packed groups, allowing the virus to spread easily among the animals. In the past, there was enough room in Africa for humans and fruit bats to exist without much contact. Deforestation has changed this, according to an editorial in the Guardian. West Africa was once covered in rain forests, a common habitat for fruit bats. During the past decade, loggers have stripped the land, reducing the habitable area for the animals. Laws governing more responsible logging practices in that part of the world could help reduce the risk of future outbreaks, but civil wars and political corruption are slowing progress. As the forests shrink, the mining industry has been moving more people into Africa to tap its vast mineral reserves. These miners often have to travel through high concentrations of bats, which increases the likelihood of someone being infected. Like the rain forests, mines are also popular habitats for animals that might carry these viruses, and miners have been among the victims in several Marburg outbreaks in the past. In 1998, one of the largest Marburg outbreaks to date occurred in Congo, in an area pocked with several illegal gold mines. During the course of the epidemic, there were 149 cases and 123 deaths. But animals in the wild are not the only threat to spread these viruses; wild animals — including primates, birds, and reptiles — captured and sold for food or as exotic pets are also a risk. Some experts believe the illegal wildlife trade market — which brings in between $10 billion and $20 billion each year — is one of the greatest threats due to its global reach and the lack of health standards. "As wildlife is traded between hunters, middle marketers, and consumers, there are, quite literally, billions of opportunities for disease transmission among wildlife, humans, and domestic animals," wrote Timothy Bouley and Sara Thompson for the World Bank . Research has found that outbreaks resulting from wildlife trade have caused hundreds of billions of dollars of economic damage globally. It has been such a problem the researchers suggested that eradicating the illegal trade market would be more practical and effective at stopping outbreaks than attacking the virus directly.

Religion / Al Qaeda: We're Sorry About Yemen Hospital Attack by maxben(m): 9:46am On Dec 24, 2013 |
Hi everyone... I read this and i thought it was worth posting here... It's something you don't often hear from the leaders of a terrorist group known for violence: We're sorry. But that's just what the head of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula said in a video message Sunday, apologizing for a hospital attack in Sanaa earlier this month that left dozens of people dead. The attackers were directed not to assault the hospital or mosque in an attack against a Yemeni Ministry of Defense compound on December 5, but one fighter made a mistake and attacked the hospital, leader Qassim Al-Raimi says in the video. "We confess to this mistake and fault. We offer our apologies and condolences to the families of the victims," Raimi said in the video, which was published by al Qaeda media outlet Al-Malahim. "We did not want your lost ones; we did not target them on purpose. This is not of our religion or our morals." It's unusual to see "such a direct, fast, public apology" from al Qaeda, CNN National Security Analyst Peter Bergen said. "Al Qaeda leaders seem to be waking up to the fact that if they position themselves as the defenders of Muslims, their large- scale killing of Muslim civilians needs to stop," Bergen said. The apology comes after Yemeni government officials released surveillance video showing the hospital under attack. The surveillance footage showed patients nervously looking out of the hospital windows, then running after an explosion. In another clip, patients and staff huddle in a hallway. They watch as an attacker walks calmly toward them, activates an explosive and lobs it in their direction. "We saw what the Yemeni channel broadcast: a gunman entering a hospital . ... We did not order him to do so, and we are not pleased with what he did," Raimi said. "Moreover, it wronged us and pained us, because we do not fight in this manner." The U.S. government has designated al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula as a foreign terrorist organization and says the group has orchestrated "numerous high- profile terrorist attacks." Sunday's apology, though rare, isn't the first time al Qaeda or its affiliates have apologized. In November, Syrian rebels with al Qaeda ties apologized for mistakenly beheading a wounded rebel fighter after assuming he supported Syrian President Bashar al- Assad. In 2009, an al Qaeda spokesman released a video message offering condolences to "unintended Muslim victims" killed in attacks. And in 2007, Bergen said, former al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden said that Muslim victims killed by al Qaeda in Iraq "are not the intended targets." Behind the scenes, Bergen said, leaders of the group have expressed concerns about the impact such attacks would have on the group's reputation. "We know from the documents recovered at the bin Laden compound in Abbottabad by U.S. Navy SEALS in May 2011, al Qaeda's leaders were often writing to each other privately and also to groups they are associated with about the need to minimize civilian (Muslim) casualties and often wrote about the damage to the al Qaeda brand that killing civilians had achieved by al Qaeda operations in Iraq," Bergen said. "But the straightforward public apology ... is a new development." In Sunday's message, Raimi said the group would financially compensate families of victims in the hospital attack. But the militant leader also stressed that the group's fighters wouldn't shy away from going after targets that have ties to American drones. That's why they hit the Defense Ministry compound that day, he said. Since the attack, Yemeni government officials have repeatedly stated there are no drone operations based at the compound. Raimi said places that help American drones by spying, providing information or offering intelligence are legitimate targets. "We have a long list of these places. In case they continue, we will continue. We will reach them, because we defend ourselves," he said. "We made a mistake. We accept responsibility and we are continuing with our Jihad." http://www.youtube.com/watch?desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DY5MZ_HyZiuM&v=Y5MZ_HyZiuM&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DY5MZ_HyZiuM%26desktop_uri%3D%252Fwatch%253Fv%253DY5MZ_HyZiuM SOURCE www.cnn.com/2013/12/22/world/meast/yemen-al-qaeda-apology/index.html?sr=fb122313alqaedasorry11a
