Nairaland / General / Pope Francis, Grand Imam Of Egypt Kiss, Sign Document For World Peace by Rexcharlesblog: 8:53am On Feb 05, 2019
Pope Francis and the grand imam of Egypt's Al-Alzhar Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb on Monday met in Abu Dhabi, embraced each other and called for peace. The two religious leaders signed a statement with their hopes for world peace and human understanding.

The document was signed in the name of "all victims of wars, persecution and injustice; and those tortured in any part of the world, without distinction".

It said: "We resolutely declare that religions must never incite war, hateful attitudes, hostility and extremism, nor must they incite violence or the shedding of blood."





The grand imam of Egypt's Al-Azhar mosque and university, called on the Muslims in West Asia to "embrace" local Christian communities while telling the Christians that they are "citizens of this nation with full rights and responsibilities".

"Continue to embrace your brothers the Christian citizens everywhere, for they are our partners in our nation," said the grand imam, who is the highest seat of learning in Sunni Islam.

Pope Francis also called for full religious freedom in the Muslim- majority region, where restrictions are placed on non-Muslim expressions of faith. To promote "concrete paths of peace" people of different religions will have to come together, he said.


The pontiff also flagged the dangers of "fake news" after the boycott of Qatar by Bahrain, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The crisis had begun after Qatar's state-run news agency was hacked and fake items were published.

Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb had also hosted Pope Francis in 2017 to improve relations between Catholics and Muslims.

Pope Francis' 40-hour visit to Abu Dhabi culminates on Tuesday with the first-ever papal mass on the Arabian peninsula -- a gathering in which 135,000 people are expected to participate in a never-before-seen display of public Christian worship in the region.



They also signed the foundation stone for construction of a new ‘Church of Saint Francis’ and ‘Mosque of Grand Imam Ahmad Al-Tayyeb’ in Abu Dhabi. They will serve as beacons to uphold the values ​​of tolerance, moral integrity and human fraternity in the UAE.

Crime / 13-year-old Girl Killed For Her Wonderful Essay About Gun Violence In Her Hometo by Rexcharlesblog: 7:49pm On Nov 22, 2018
13-Year-Old Sandra Parks wrote an award-winning essay about the routin shootings in her hometown of Milwaukee and elsewhere, and the emotional toll they have on young people like her.

"Little children are victims of senseless gun violence," she wrote. " ... I sit back and I have to escape from what I see and hear every day. When I do; I come to the same conclusion ... we are in a state of chaos."
Two years after she won an award for her essay, bullets shattered Sandra's bedroom window as she watched television Monday night. The stray bullet fired from outside her home hit the 13-year-old, killing her, CNN affiliate WISN reported.


"She took it like a soldier," her sister, Tatiana Ingram, told the affiliate. "She just walked in the room and said, 'Mama, I'm shot' ... The bullet wasn't even for her."
She was killed in her home
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett described "the insanity" of gun violence in the city and nationwide.
"Sandra Parks ... went into her bedroom. She never came out alive," Barrett said at a news conference. "Tragically, her death was caused by someone who just decided they were going to shoot bullets into her house and she's dead."


Prosecutors charged two men in the shooting death Wednesday, including one who was found hiding in a closet after the incident, the affiliate reported. It's unclear if the home was targeted.
'My baby was not violent'
Parks, who was in eighth grade at Keefe Avenue School, wrote the essay in 2016, when she was in sixth grade. The essay won third place in the contest.

Sandra Parks, 13, wrote this essay about gun violence and its effects on children like her. This week, she was killed by a stray bullet while she was in her bedroom.


"Our first truth is that we must start caring about each other," she wrote. "We need to be empathetic and try to walk in each other's shoes. ... We shall overcome, when we love ourselves and the people around us. Then, we become our brothers keeper."
Dozens of people gathered for a vigil outside Sandra's home Tuesday night. They held up a plaque with her essay on it as they reflected on her calls against violence.
Her mother, Bernice Parks, said her daughter constantly spoke out against violence. "My baby was not violent. My baby did not like violence," she said.

During an appearance on Wisconsin Public Radio last year, Sandra said she picked the topic of violence for her essay because of the constant news on shootings.
"All you hear about is somebody dying or somebody getting shot and people do not just think about whose father or son or granddaughter or grandson who it was that was just killed," she said.

Health / How You Can Test For HIV / AIDS With Your Urine by Rexcharlesblog: 4:17pm On Nov 09, 2018
Usually, antibodies are detected in the blood when a person is HIV positive and vice versa for HIV-negative people.

These antibodies are usually detected in blood samples and sometimes saliva by an oral swab. In addition to the body fluids mentioned above, it has been proven that you can test the virus with your urine.

This may seem odd, but according to a report (hivinsite), urine could also be used to identify antibodies.

In this case, we will use an ELISA test to detect antibodies. For the ELISA test, the urine sample will be sent to a laboratory for analysis. A lab technician will add the sample to a device containing an HIV antigen and HIV antibodies.

If not, you can use the test at home by simply following the principles. Collect urine in a bowl.

Transfer the urine sample to a petri dish containing the specific antigen. If your blood contains anti-antigen antibodies, the two will bind together. You will notice this by an amplification of the signal that will give a lighter color on the background.

It normally takes a few hours to detect the antibodies. However, the Western blot will be used to confirm the positive results of an ELISA test. Basically, it is usually used as a confirmation test.

Positive results in this case mean; if the antibodies are detected, you are HIV positive. While if the antibodies are not detected, then you are in a stable, HIV negative state.

Culture / Tribeswoman Shocked Customers By Going Topless In A Grocery Store by Rexcharlesblog: 1:31pm On Nov 06, 2018
When Tradition Meets the Modern World: This Tribeswoman Shocked Customers By Going Topless in a Grocery Store


These striking photo show the very pervasive nature of globalisation, as an elegant tribeswoman in traditional dress and mud for sunscreen checks out deals on washing powder.

The woman, from the Himba tribe in Opuwo, Namibia, popped into her local grocery store to pick up a few of life’s essentials.

Himba tribes people lead a very traditional lifestyle, but are often seen using services in their local villages and cities.

Tradition meets the modern world: The elegant woman, believed to be in her 20s, is a member of the Himba tribe in Namibia

The woman, thought to be in her early 20s, was pictured by Swedish wildlife and documentary photographer Bjorn Persson.

The 44-year-old said: ‘The lady took me completely by surprise, as I was just doing my grocery shopping in a local supermarket while filming a documentary about the Himba tribe.

‘She did not notice me at first, but after a while she realised what I was doing.

‘The Himba women always dress like that, no matter if they are at home in their village or visiting the big, modern cities.

‘It’s for their own beauty and tradition. They don’t just dress up for tourists as some other tribes do.

‘The hair and whole body is covered with a certain kind of mud to protect them from the sun, and the clothes are mostly made of goat skin.’

Despite the striking contrast the images give, local shoppers did not pay any special attention to the Himba woman.

For the other villagers, the tribeswomen’s appearance at the store is not unusual.

Bjorn said: ‘They are used to it in that village, and so people did not stare.

‘She was just buying flour, sugar and washing powder.

‘But I felt fascinated, confused, happy and sad all at the same time.

‘The photos are a stark representation of the old world and traditions clashing with the new.

‘For me, they are provocative and raise many questions.’

It is estimated that the Himba tribe has a population of around 50,000, mostly living in northern Namibia and across the Kunene River in neighbouring Angola.

Tribespeople speak OtjiHimba, and are considered the last semi-nomadic people of Namibia.

They are largely livestock families, who mostly breed sheep and goats.

Himba men and women wear traditional clothing to suit the semi-arid environment they live in.

Women and girls within the tribe tend to perform more labor-intensive work than men and boys do, such as carrying water to the village, while men are responsible for looking after livestock.

In the 1980s the tribe lost 90 per cent of its livestock because of drought, with many members giving up their herds and becoming refugees or joining paramilitary units.

The tribe has worked closely with international activists to protect its way of life, opposing a proposed hydroelectric dam along the Kunene River that would have flooded their ancestral homeland.

In February 2012 a protest Declaration against the dam was submitted to the United Nations, the African Union and the Namibian government.

"I don't know when I have to pedal my mother. The next day, a family meeting was held and I begged her . She forgave me and I promised not to do that again.

"A few months later, I attended another festival in my ex-wife community. At night, I went to the house of my ex-wife's mother. The door to his apartment was unlocked. I entered and met her asleep. When I tried to open it, she got up and shouted. I left the room. People chased me, but they did not arrest me.
I have repented now. I committed a crime because I did not do any work. I also stopped drinking alcohol. "

Police sources said that several residents in Mahuta reported the incident to the DCP-led IRT Abba Kyari and a chase had been launched for the suspect.

Nairaland / General / Meet A British Woman Who Have Slept With At Least 20 Ghosts by Rexcharlesblog: 3:27pm On Nov 01, 2018
"I want to get married and start a family with my ghost friend": Woman claims to be attached to a ghost


Hopefully it will not be ghostly.

A British woman who claimed to have slept with at least 20 ghosts says she is now engaged to a poltergeist.

In December, Amethyst Realm told British TV series ITV This Morning that she had cheated on her fiance with a ghost and since then has had supernatural affairs involving at least 20 paranormal beings.

Well, she says that she has found true love with an apparition.

Realm said the ghost has asked her to marry during a trip to celebrate her nine-month relationship in the English Wookey Hole Caves, according to The Sun.

"There was no knee, he has no knees. But for the first time I heard him speak, "she told The Sun. "I could actually hear his voice and it was beautiful. Deep, sexy and real. "

The 30-year-old said she met her scary match during a working trip to Australia in February, which has no name.

"I had not had a phantom flight for a while, and when I was on business, starting a new relationship was the last thing I thought about," said Bristol-based spiritual adviser The Sun. "One day, as I walked through the bush and enjoyed nature, I suddenly felt this incredible energy. A new lover had arrived. "

Realm said her friends and family have accepted her unusual engagement and now she's planning her big day as a "pagan" ceremony.


"We have not discussed the details yet, but I think it will be a pretty big deal," she said.

However, the couple already had sex on the plane when they first met.

"I was happy and excited - so excited that we had to do something about it," she said. "So we made our way to the aircraft hangar and now I'm a member of the Mile High Club."

The bride added that this engagement is much more satisfying than her previous fiancee.

"Sometimes I feel like I'm being moved," she said. "Orgasms that I have with my spirit lovers were far more satisfying than all normal men."

Crime / Boy Tied To A Tree And Fed Like An Animal By Grandmother In Ghana by Rexcharlesblog: 7:55pm On Oct 29, 2018
A nurse rescued a four-year-old boy who was tied to a tree for about 36 months and fed by his grandmother like an animal.

The community nurse, who does not want her name mentioned, discovered the hidden horror in Balansa-Sanwaasa, a community in the Builsa North district of Ghana, last week during a house-to-house measles-rubella vaccination campaign.

According to reports, every morning before the old woman went to the farm or the market, she tied the little boy with a rope to a mango tree surrounded by shrubs and held a plate of food by his side. Naked all the time and always exposed to the weather, the malnourished boy had no one to play with except the leaves and insects that fell from the treetop.


Over the years, he should have spent in a kindergarten, he was in exclusive bondage. There he learned by himself how to scribble with his dehydrated fingers - not on paper or slate, but on the floor in the area where the black string, which was always tied around his leg, limited him.

The facts collected by Starr News are that the boy's mother fell ill and died months after the boy's birth. His father disappeared even before the funeral of his mother was performed. Considering the unfortunate circumstances that accompanied the boy's arrival in the world, the grandmother made a stark conclusion that the boy was a "Chichiruk" - the name for a "ghost child" in the locally spoken Buli dialect.

These circumstances formed the basis for the appalling treatment she gave to the boy. And she resisted any attempt by an outsider to free the boy from her shackles until her sister met the boy and threatened to arrest the police if she did not immediately release the child.

"The grandmother thought it was the boy who killed the mother," said Derrick Abakisi, a nurse and associate of Radio Builsa from Sandemia. She also said that she would not take care of someone's child just so the parents could come later and take him away. She also said that the boy liked to roam around and she always had a lot to do; So, the only way to stop him from walking around was to tie him under a mango tree. "

At the time of the rescue, a prolonged hunger and serious malnutrition had already brought the boy to the edge of a shallow grave.

He looks so emaciated that an X-ray machine is not needed to see some of his bones. He seems more or less like a mobile X-ray or a starved orphan rescued from a war-feared third world country.

The rescue was not just fat. It was also contemporary. And a team led by the nurse who secured his freedom took him to the Sandema hospital, where a number of nurses feverishly brought in money to enroll him in the National Intensive Care Unit (NHIS) as soon as possible allow.

He is still at the nursery and receives care and support from sympathizers who still can not understand why a grandmother should accuse and torture a grandson for losing his mother before he was weaned off her breasts.

Food / Too Much Consumption Of Food Rich In Iron Can Increase The Risk Of Certain Strok by Rexcharlesblog: 4:45pm On Oct 27, 2018
The risk of stroke - especially the type caused by blood clots or other obstacles that travel from the heart - appears to be greater in people who have higher levels of iron, according to new research.
researchers are looking at brain scans

New research finds a link between increased levels of iron and the risk of some kinds.

Researchers from Imperial College London, UK, examined the risk of stroke in people for whom they had information about their iron levels and if they had genetic differences that changed their iron status.

This proved evidence that those with "genetically determined higher" iron levels were at greater risk of stroke, they noted in a report on the study currently in the Stroke journal.

In addition, it appears that "this effect is driven by an increased risk of cardiovascular disease", a type of stroke where blood in a vessel that supplies the brain seems blocked due to an obstruction that has left the heart.



However, the writers warn that people should not use these findings as a reason to try to change their iron levels, and they require further research to confirm their results and also find out why iron can have this effect.

"This is an early discovery," says lead student author Dr. Dipender Gill, from the Public Health School at Imperial College London "and we would not really recommend that patients who risk stroke reduce their iron intake because it has many important roles in the body."


Cardio-embolic stroke and iron status
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 15 million people have stroke every year. Of these, 5 million will die as a result and another 5 million will be disabled for the rest of their lives.

In the United States, more than 795,000 people have stroke each year and about 140,000 die, which account for 1 in 20 deaths.

The majority of strokes are of the ischemic type that occurs when a blockage in a blood vessel has stopped acidic and nutritional blood that reaches the affected part of the brain.





Cardio-embolic stroke accounts for a remarkable share of ischemic stroke and is often associated with a heart disease called atrial fibrillation, where the heart strikes irregularly and often faster than normal.

Iron has many uses in the body, the primary is to carry oxygen in red blood cells. The authors explain that studies have investigated the connections between iron levels and strokesis, but the results have been "contradictory".

For example, some studies have tied an increased risk of stroke to low levels of iron, while others have tied it to high levels of iron. In addition, there have also been studies that have not been a link at all.


Genetically driven iron status
Dr. Gill explains that they decided to investigate further because there have also been studies that have "suggested that in some cases iron can [actually] trigger blood to form a blood clot."

The first part of the team's survey meant identifying genetic differences that affect how much iron people have, which is known as their "iron status".

They sought public data sources that contained genetic information of more than 48,000 people.

Nairaland / General / 8 Things You Should Never Do When The Thunder Is Striking by Rexcharlesblog: 11:43am On Oct 27, 2018
Thunderstorms seem to be much more prevalent with our climate, Haywire and Thor will be part of Avengers. Nevertheless, many people seem to be unaware that a well-aimed flash bolt can at best destroy your day seriously. Let's take a look at some things you should not do in thunderstorms and / or when Thor is close.

1 Stand under a tree


I do not think this needs to be explained much. The flash hits high places, high places fall down, you're under them means you're being crushed by a tree trunk.


2 Run a convertible

It has a rubber tire so that the entire car becomes an electric deadlock when hit by the flash. Sha-Boom!
3 Think you are smarter


"Hi guys, I think the storm moves in such a way that we should be s-" * ZAP! *


4 stand in the open place

As someone trained sniper will tell, the simplest goal is a goal that is not covered.

5 Leave your pet outside



If you leave your dog out in thunderstorms, you're just a bad owner, and maybe you should ignore all the items on the list except for this one. Save the dog first.

6 Take a shower


While the odds are very small, the electric current can move through your water pipes and sweep you to death in the shower. There would be a constant stream of painful lightning in your face

7 Use a landline

This is honestly good advice for life in general - we have mobile phones now. Move on.

8 Stand close to a window

Windows may have metal parts that can be electrified when they are hit by Zeus' thunderbolts. Do not go close to them or touch them, no matter how much you want to see the bolts meet the ground.

The Nigerian Army said it had discovered a shallow grave where a missing major general, Muhammad Alkali, was buried after he was killed.

The army said the body was later exhumed and reburied somewhere else by the killers, according to the information provided to it by some of the arrested suspects.


According to the army, the little tomb was confirmed by four independent sources in society and also by sniffer dogs.

According to a Premium Times correspondent who visited the area of ​​the shallow grave reports that there is a distance of one kilometer between the main road and the location of the grave.

Mr Alkali was the immediate past chief of administration of the Nigerian Army. He was declared missing on September 3 when he was traveling from Abuja to Bauchi State. He is believed to have been killed by his abductors.

The discovery of the missing general's car was found weeks ago in a community's pound after it was drained.

A blood-stained T-shirt, a boxer short and a pair of shoes believed to belong to the general were found in the car.

Siden de discovery of the car, there have been fears that the military could attack the community in retaliation.

A day after the car was found, the army was fired from the Dura Du community and arrested 30 suspects in connection with the suspected murder of the general.

Apart from the discovery of the missing car, two other vehicles were also recovered from the pound.

After the 30 suspects were arrested, residents of society fled for fear of military action, but the army pledged to carry out the search with respect for human rights.

On Friday, a major general, B.A. Akinruluyo, the General Officer Commanding, 3 Division, Rukuba Barracks, narrated how the shallow grave was discovered.

"Please note that four different sources were not known to each other at various times. We took to the opened shallow grave where the senior officer was earlier buried but subsequently removed," he said.

"Furthermore, sniffer dogs that have been cultivated with the personal effects of the top officer led us to the same same open-scale graves. That was the only grave we were led to by different people and sniffer dogs. We did not go to any other grave as the operation was carried out based on credible intelligence.

"Like i always say, the cordon and search operation is intelligence driven and that's why the operation has been conducted in line with international best practices and respect for human rights. This further explains why the (army) division did not clamp down on the whole community. Only the perpetrators are being targeted.

"At this point, let me reiterate that all the actors involved in this dastardly act are all that are still known to us. All efforts have been made to arrest them and bring them to justice as their photographs and personal information are relevant sikkerhetsbyråer.

"The cordon and search operation conducted by own troops has really exposed the heinous crimes being committed by the few but fully supported and concealed by the entire community. I wish future members of the public for their cooperation and still solicit for anyone with credible information about where the senior officer was reburied. It is the civil responsibility of the Dura-Du community that produces the corpse of the deceased senior officer and those involved in the killing of the senior officer.

"Finally, the Division wishes to emphasize its compliance with the principles and respect for human rights in its constitutional roles. It further calls on all in its area to be vigilant and report any suspensions of peace to security agencies," the General said.
