Nairaland / General / 20 dead as tree falls on students swimming at waterfall in Ghana by sharpboyus(m): 12:01pm On Mar 20, 2017
Twenty students have died after trees fell on them at a favorite waterfall in Ghana, emergency officials have said.

National fire service spokesman Billy Anaglate said the group of high school students were swimming at the popular Kintampo waterfalls in the Brong-Ahafo area, when the unusual incident happened.

He said: “the students were swimming in the river when there clearly a storm and a windy atmosphere that had uprooted a few of the trees and they’d fallen on a number of them – people who were apparently swimming.”

Eighteen students died at the scene and two others died in hospital, Mr Anaglate said.

He added that 11 more casualties were receiving treatment, including the school administrators who was simply in charge of the trip.

Ghana’s tourism minister Catherine Abelema Afeku said in a record: “We extend our condolences to the families of the dead and pray for the
injured ones.”

Nairaland / General / Iphone Users Should NEVER Say 108 To Siri by sharpboyus(m): 6:02pm On Mar 19, 2017
iPhone users should NEVER say 108 to Siri

Individuals of a certain age will remember the Ask Jeeves se and, moreover, what fun it absolutely was to key in rude questions to see what the long-suffering butler might say.

Jeeves may no longer be around, nevertheless now everyone by having an iPhone or iPad has something similar with Apple's voice assistant, Siri.

Siri has been available to greatly help since 2010 and, like Jeeves before her, it is also possible to really have a little fun with her.

For instance, in the event that you ask Siri to borrow some funds, she'll sagely reply with, "Neither a borrower nor a lender be."

Sometimes, however, the harmless Siri fun can stray into something more serious - and potentially harmful.

iPhone users have now been taking to Twitter recently telling others to state the number 108 to Siri, adding things such as, "You'll thank me later."

Saying 108 will actually place you to the emergency services in the UK.

This is because 108 is the same of 999 in India, writes The Sun. Just what exactly Siri does is recognise it as an emergency call, and puts you to the services in your area.

Another would-be prankster went one further and urged people to not only say "108", but to then close their eyes for five seconds.

This could obviously mean you do not cotton to the actual fact you've called the UK's emergency services until it's too late.

Other numbers includes in similar pranks are: 112,110, 000 and the US number 911.

What makes this prank particularly inadvisable would be the thinly stretched resources of our emergency services.

There could also be serious repercussions for anyone caught wasting the emergency services'time.

Nairaland / General / 11 Years Old Girl To Become Uk Youngest Mom by sharpboyus(m): 12:36pm On Mar 17, 2017
It is not known whether she will have to have a caesarean section.

The girl is in the East of England, but the details and circumstances about the pregnancy can’t be revealed for legal reasons.

In similar cases local authorities have worked with the mum, offering counselling to her and other involved.

Last month a previous youngest mum in Britain revealed she was expecting.

Now 23, Tressa Middleton first fell pregnant at 11 and gave birth aged 12.

Her child was taken into care.

Tressa told how she has since turned her life around after alcohol and drug addictions.

She said she was now was expecting again, this time with fiancé Darren Young, 30.

In 2014 another 12-year-old girl gave birth, five months younger than the age Tressa was.

The father was a boy aged 13 — the lowest combined age of any British parents in history.

Tressa said: “I sent her warmest congratulations but it will be incredibly tough.

“At that age you’re so worried about what other people think at school.”

Any girl can become pregnant if they have gone through puberty.

In girls, puberty usually starts between the age of eight and 11, but every girl can be different.

Some girls do start their puberty early, around the age of eight, which is called precocious puberty.

During puberty the girls periods will being, meaning their body is preparing to have a baby.

This is the main sign that a girls ovaries have developed and have been released into the womb.

As soon as a girl begins her period she is able to get pregnant.

The average age a girl in the UK starts her period is 12 years old.

Nairaland / General / Blackberry Keyone Launched (picture) by sharpboyus(m): 5:52pm On Feb 28, 2017
Latest BlackBerry KEYone launched

That’s right, iconic smartphone maker BlackBerry has made a surprise return to the handset market, with the shiny new BlackBerry KEYone lining up as the company’s best ever phone.

Despite moving firmly to the realms of the modern smartphone by having an integrated touchscreen display and Google’s Android OS, the KEYone also plays host to classic BlackBerry touches, including the addition of the iconic physical QWERTY keyboard.

Still the key selling point for the firm’s phones, this isn’t just a collection of physical keys design to make knocking out on the go emails, WhatsApp chats and work reports easier.

The Smart Keyboard also responds to touch gestures, replacing the longstanding trackpad by letting you swipe your finger across the keys to boost navigation on website pages and within emails.

With flick typing also supported, the phone’s keyboard may also enable you to jump straight into certain tasks, allowing users to programme as much as 52 customisable shortcuts.

These generally include process quickening shortcuts including pressing ‘I’to open your inbox, or ‘M’to get into maps

This coveted keyboard sits below a 4.5-inch, 3:2 Full HD display with the unusually shaped panel packing an eye fixed appeasing 1620 x 1080p resolution.

Elsewhere beneath the hood, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 625 processor runs the show alongside a significant 3505mAh battery that as a result of Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 skills, can take the telephone from flat to 50% charge in only 36 minutes.

Finishing off the phone’s impressive specs sheet, the newest BlackBerry handset packs a 12-megapixel camera on the rear.

Featuring the high-end Sony IMX378 camera sensor, this is the same snapper found on the brilliant Google Pixel.

Despite bearing the BlackBerry name, the newest handset has actually been piece together by alternative party manufacturer TCL as part of a fresh partnership between the two firms.

“Impressively designed to be distinctly different, the BlackBerry KEYone reimagines how we communicate by offering unmatched productivity and the world’s most secure Android smartphone experience,” said Nicolas Zibell, CEO for TCL Communication in unveiling the device.

“We’re humbled to play such an important role in the continuing future of BlackBerry smartphones, that have been so iconic within our industry, and we’re wanting to prove to the BlackBerry community that their excitement surrounding this new BlackBerry smartphone is something they may be proud of as well.”

Set to go on sale in April with a price tag “at or under £499”, the BlackBerry KEYone isn’t the sole blast from the past phone we’re expecting to see this week.

Later today, the iconic Nokia 3310 is anticipated to be relaunched, with the world’s most beloved phone getting a contemporary day revival.

Nairaland / General / Teens Who Sleep More During The Day Are More Likely To Be A Criminal. by sharpboyus(m): 4:22pm On Feb 23, 2017
TEENAGERS who feel sleepy in the midst of the day are almost five times more prone to become criminals later in life.

A study found in addition they exhibit more antisocial behaviour, such as for instance lying, cheating, stealing and fighting.

Researchers say giving drowsy teens advice on the best way to sleep better – and encouraging them to get at bed earlier – may cut crime rates.

The team analysed data on 15-year-olds, like Harry Enfield's character Kevin, from three secondary schools in England.

They asked the teenagers to rate their amount of sleepiness on a seven-point scale in the beginning and end of lab sessions, which always ran from 1pm to 3pm.

The youngsters and teachers were also quizzed on the pupils'behaviour.

Finally, the researchers trawled the Central Criminal Records Office in London to establish which of the initial 101 pupils had a criminal record at age 29.

They excluded minor violations and dedicated to violent crimes and property offences which is why participants have been convicted.

They found 17 percent of participants had committed an offense – and these were more prone to have now been tired and disruptive as teenagers.

Study leader Professor Adrian Raine, from the University of Pennsylvania, said: “It's the first study to the knowledge to show that daytime sleepiness during teenage years are connected with criminal offending 14 years later

“More sleep won't solve crime, nonetheless it might make a bit of a dent.

“That can make a difference not merely for anti-social behaviour at school with these teenage kids but more to the point, with later serious criminal behaviour.”

He added: “Daytime drowsiness is connected with poor attention.

“Take poor attention as a proxy for poor brain function.

“If you've got poor brain functioning, you're more apt to be criminal.”

The researchers stress that drowsiness does not always predispose an adolescent boy to becoming anti-social.

And many children with insomnia issues do not become lawbreakers.

The study, in collaboration with the University of York, is published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry.

Nairaland / General / British Husband Left For Dead And His Wife Killed By South African Robbers by sharpboyus(m): 12:49pm On Feb 23, 2017

A British woman has been horrifically murdered and her husband left for dead within an attack called'pure and hateful and pointless torture.

The couple were asleep during sex on the farm in South Africa when three men broke in via a window at 2am and tied the terrified Brits up.

The gang, who struck at their property in Dullstroom in Mpualanga province, refused to trust Sue Howarth, 64, and husband Robert Lynn, 66, did not need a safe.

The pair were tangled up and attacked with a blowtorch, screaming for help while the men burned them with the weapon at their remote farm 150 miles from Pretoria.


lose friend Claire Taylor invited local paper the Middleburg Observer into the hospital to photograph Sue in bed to show the full horror of what local farmers are going through.

Police said the couple were put via a horrific ordeal lasting many hours, in which they were savagely beaten around the top and burned again and again before they were later both shot.

Eventually the three men bundled the married couple to their own pickup, with plastic bags over their heads and tape around their necks.

They were driven off before Sue was shot twice in the top and Robert in the neck, while the thugs dumped the couple by the roadside to die on a mountain pass.

Sue had a plastic bag jammed down her throat and Robert had a bag tied round his neck to strangle him. But retired Robert survived the brutal attack and were able to free himself and find his terribly injured wife nearby.

Police said she was unrecognisable from her injuries and was in a coma. Her husband raised the alarm she was rushed to hospital but died 48 hours later.
She'd multiple fractures to her her skull and gunshot wounds and horrific burns from the blowtorch to her breasts.

It is thought her life support machine was turned off on Tuesday morning, after doctors said her horrific injuries weren't survivable.
Her husband was treated in the intensive care unit but incredibly has survived and has returned home.
It had been the next violent farm attack in the province this month.

Nairaland / General / Video: Witch Doctors Now Hires Hit Men To Kill Albinos by sharpboyus(m): 1:19pm On Feb 19, 2017
Beneath the blazing East Africa sun Chikumbutzo Massina gazes hollow eyed across the baked and barren ground where his brother Fletcher once tended his tomato crop. Any plants that remain are withered and brown.
‘This can be a spot where I spotted Fletcher’s blood trail,’ he says, his voice devoid of emotion, as he moves further across the field.
‘And this can be a ridge where I came across what was left of his mutilated body.’

In a monotone he tells how he found bit more than his brother’s torso: all limbs have been chopped off with a machete, his genitals cut off, his teeth torn out and all his vital organs – brain, liver, heart, lungs and kidneys – gone.
For Chikumbutzo, Fletcher’s brutal murder has barely yet registered. But one gets the impression from his dazed expression he has long known it was only a matter of time before his brother, an Albino, was killed.
In Malawi, where in actuality the condition is more common than almost anywhere in the world, witch doctors hire ‘hit men’from on the list of impoverished rural communities to murder then mutilate sufferers to allow them to use their organs for ‘medicines’which can be sold at huge prices.

Their bodies are believed to contain ‘healing properties’and can increase wealth and influence. It’s common for attacks to boost shortly before elections in rural areas.
Now, in an important new investigative documentary on BBC2, one British doctor who has Albinism himself, has uncovered the real extent of this barbaric practice and shone a spotlight on this shocking trade in human body parts.
Dr Oscar Duke, 30, an NHS doctor in London explores why these terrible crimes are occurring and who’s responsible.

He visits Tanzania’s ‘protectorates’where children with albinism and teenagers are housed in squalid conditions and protected by armed guards.
In a nation where over fifty percent the populace believes in witch craft these potions are bought as charms to win riches or influence.
A single one, created from the organs and limbs of albinos, can sell for 20m shillings, around £7,000 in sterling.

And these is definitely an impoverished country, the place where a land worker is lucky to earn 200,000 shillings (£72) annually, and malnutrition is rife.
In Malawi, where a lot more than 70 Albinos have been attacked, abducted or murdered previously couple of years, the situation is even more perilous, leading one UN expert about them to warn that Albinos could eventually become extinct in East Africa.
Malawi’s problem that has been exported from across the border, in neighbouring Tanzania, which has one of the highest rates of albinism in the world.

Nairaland / General / Meet The Surgeon That Designs The Perfect Vagina by sharpboyus(m): 1:51pm On Feb 18, 2017
Source: http://www.newspaperupdate.com/meet-surgeon-designs-perfect-vagina/


He's known around his office because the'vagina whisperer '.
That's because Dr Amir Marashi spends day in and day trip creating'perfect'vaginas.


The New York-based doctor specializes in vaginoplasty - surgery'down there'- and performs 80 to 100 procedures each year.
And demand has grown so much the amount of women undergoing the surgery has rocketed from 5,000 in 2013 to nearly 9,000 in 2015.


You can find two reasons women come in for surgeries with Dr Marashi. The very first is cosmetic purposes. Women feel uncomfortable about the size, the design, as well as color of the vagina.
Dr Marashi told Daily Mail Online:'For every single person, they want something different. But the most crucial thing is they feel better, they feel confident.
'Some report better orgasms, feeling convenient in the bedroom, and so on.'
The second is functionality purposes.


'It'll be somebody who has had one to two children and they feel their vagina is losing shape or consistency. Usually they're 35 or older,' he said.
'Or they'll are having issues making use of their labia. They're uncomfortable wearing tight clothing, tight underwear. They're uncomfortable riding a horse or even a bike.
'They could be more susceptible to getting yeast infections.'
At the end of your day, Dr Marashi says, the decision is up to the patient. But he makes sure he consults together multiple times before they do opt to undergo surgery.
The surgeon can shorten the labia, lighten the colour, make the vagina moister, and amplify the center of gravity.


WHAT IS A VAGINOPLASTY?

A vaginoplasty is a medical procedure that results in the construction or reconstruction of the vagina.

Most vaginoplasty operations are done by private clinics as surgery treatment to improve the look of the feminine genitals.

Occasionally, there might be a medical significance of the operation such correcting congenital defects to the vagina, urethra and rectum.

Procedures include:

Labiaplasty - shortening or reshaping the vaginal lips
Tightening the vagina
Amplifying the center of gravity
Clitoridotomy - reducing the clitoral hood
Hymenoplasty - reconstruction of the hymen
It's usually performed by a gynecologist or plastic surgeon.

It may be carried out using either a broad anesthetic or local anesthetic with sedation, and procedures usually take about one to two hours.

Based on the most up-to-date figures from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, more than 5,000 women underwent vaginoplasties in 2013.

No figures have been released since then aside from the proven fact that the percentage has risen each year.

The surgeries, he says, can even help lift the bladder, helping with urination, and strengthen the rectum.
Dr Marashi's ability to generate the ideal vagina for his clients has earned him the nickname the'vagina whisperer'among his staff.
He explained it first occurred while he was doing non-profit work in Haiti following the devastating 2010 earthquake.
There clearly was a female he was treating who was experiencing a vaginal fistula - when a hole develops between the vagina and either the bladder or the rectum - but had been too ashamed to share it.
One of the nurses who was in the operating room with him commented:'Wow, I can't believe you're some kind of vagina whisperer.'
The name got passed around to his nurses back in New York and stuck.
On the course of his career, Dr Marashi has performed more than 400 surgeries and says he's seen a tremendous rise in the amount of women wanting vaginoplasties.
Based on the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, more than 5,000 women underwent the task in 2013.
By 2015, that figure was estimated to have risen up to around 8,745 women.
Since Dr Marashi first began performing vaginal surgeries six years back, he says particularly more younger women seem to want the surgery.
One reason is that the topic is now less taboo as more and more celebrities show off their'designer vaginas ', including British model Katie Price and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville.
However, as a result of this celebrity rise, younger women see the task as a type of fashion statement.
'I always make sure they realize that it's not something which they need but something which they want. I don't wish to just do anything for cosmetic purposes,' Dr Marashi said.
'If they decide they want to undergo with it, that's fine, but they should do their homework.'
For women who're considering undergoing the task, the surgeon offered some tips to check out:
Make sure that your surgeon is board-certified
Make certain they've been performing the surgery for at least many years
Go in for a face-to-face consultation
Look for before and after pictures
Request written and/or in-person testimonials

A driver borrowed his friend's £900,000 Lamborghini to exhibit off at a celebration - but wrote off the blissful luxury vehicle after crashing into a hand tree.

The man jumped into the black Murcialago LP670-4 SuperVeloce after eating at a restaurant with pals in Bangkok, Thailand.

The driver was unhurt but his two friends suffered minor cuts and bruises in the crash.

Horror pictures show the whole front and side of the sports car totally destroyed and the devastated driver with his head in his hands.

Police stated that the group escaped serious harm however the driver could be charged with reckless driving, causing injury to others and damaging private property.

Rescuer Worapol Rachatawet, who took pictures of the wrecked Lamborghini, said: "The man who was driving had a face as white as a ghost. He'll be investing in the damage for an extended time.



"It's magic nobody was killed because the automobile was smashed very badly. It will have to be sent to the scrap yard. If I was the dog owner I could be crying."

A Lamborghini Murcialago LP670-4 SuperVeloce may cost around £400,000 in the UK but car prices are typically double in Thailand due to raised import taxes.

The master told officers he had paid 40 million Thai Baht for the automobile - around £900,000.

Nairaland / General / Gambia Set To Rejoin Commonwealth After Four Years. Newspaperupdate.com by sharpboyus(m): 5:19pm On Feb 16, 2017
Gambia Set To Rejoin The Commonwealth

The Gambian government withdrew in 2013 under its then leader Yahya Jammeh, who called it a “neo-colonial institution “.

But Adama Barrow, who had been sworn in as president in January, lived in Britain for 36 months when he was younger and has said he wants to rekindle ties.

Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson will be visiting the West African nation on Tuesday, where he will meet President Barrow and look at the British-funded Medical Research Council.

Mr Johnson said he was “delighted” to be the initial British foreign secretary to visit The Gambia since the nation won its independence from Britain in 1965.

“I am also glad that Gambia will rejoin the Commonwealth and we will also ensure this happens in the coming months,” he added.

Mr Barrow’s path to the presidency wasn’t smooth.

He have been a political unknown but was thrust to the limelight when eight opposition parties put him forward as a unifying figure.

The former Argos security guard defeated hardline ruler Yahya Jammeh in December, but Mr Jammeh clung to power, saying there have been irregularities in the election.

Troops from other West African countries willing to cross the border to force him to cede power and Britons in the country were warned to obtain out amid safety concerns.

After a lengthy stalemate, Mr Jammeh finally went into exile and Mr Barrow returned from Senegal, where he had taken refuge.

Mr Jammeh, who’d been in power for 22 years, has been accused of emptying the country’s banks of 500m Gambian dalasis (£9.2m) in the last fourteen days of his reign.
