wow just for green pasture

U.S. space agency (NASA) said in Washington on Friday that its Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) telescope has discovered a remote galaxy that shines with the light of more than 300 trillion suns, making it the most luminous galaxy ever found.
It said the galaxy, known as “WISE J224607.57-052635.0’’, belongs to a recently discovered new class of objects called extremely luminous infrared galaxies.
NASA said its dazzling light may be due to a behemoth black hole at its belly.
The space agency explained in a statement that “Supermassive black holes draw gas and matter into a disk around them, heating the disk to roaring temperatures of millions of degrees and blasting out high-energy, visible, ultraviolet, and X-ray light.
It said the light, however, was absorbed by surrounding cocoons of dust, which prevents the agency from seeing the galaxy with optical telescopes.
“When the dust heats up, it radiates infrared light, which is only now detected by the WISE telescope.
NASA said because light from the galaxy hosting the black hole has traveled 12.5 billion years to reach us, astronomers are seeing the object as it was in the distant past.
It said at that time, the universe was only a tenth of its present age of 13.8 billion years, but the black hole was already billions of times the mass of our sun.
The new study, published in the Astrophysical Journal, also reported 19 other extremely luminous infrared galaxies.
It said just like the most luminous galaxy found to date, the galaxies were not found earlier because of their distance, and because dust converts their powerful visible light into an incredible outpouring of infrared light. (Xinhua/NAN)

As at press time on Thursday, about 2,047 persons had signed a petition asking Yale University to withdraw the honorary doctorate degree awarded to Nigeria's Coordinating Minister of the Economy and Finance Minister, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.
Okonjo-Iweala had been awarded a Doctorate of Humane Letters on Monday, May 18, 2015 during Yale's Commencement ceremony in New Haven, Connecticut, alongside eight others.
The petition, which is being hosted on Change.org, the world's largest petition platform, was started by a Nigerian resident in the United States, one Sunday Iwalaiye.
When THISDAY visited the web page, it was discovered that 453 more petitions were needed to reach 2,500, which will probably prompt the organisation to consider the petition worthy of consideration.
When the petitioner kicked off the movement, the signatures had trickled in by the seconds but they have since leaped to over 2,000, with more probably on the way.
Tagged “Yale University gave its prestigious honorary doctorate degree to an undeserving Nigerian,” the petition reads in part: "There is no tangible evidence of any economic development in Nigeria under the leadership of Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala (sic) in all reality.
"Nigeria's economy is still an oil-dependent economy that is debt and borrowing ridden as well as 100% consuming and importing in nature.” www.thisdaylive.com/articles/over-2-000-nigerians-sign-petition-asking-varsity-to-withdraw-okonji-iweala-s-doctorate/209915/

Approximately 50 percent of patients with diabetes suffer from nerve damage, or neuropathy. No cure exists, and the most effective treatment, keeping blood sugar in control, only slows neuropathy.
A new study in the Journal of Neurophysiology, however, introduces a new alternative, omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil. The study shows that fish oil supplements can restore the condition of nerves damaged from diabetes in mice. “Diabetic neuropathy is a very costly and debilitating complication of diabetes.
It is the leading cause of foot ulcers and nontrauma-related amputations, and the impact of diabetic neuropathy on the patient and family are unmeasurable,” said Mark Yorek of the VA Medical Center in Iowa City, the study’s lead investigator.
Fish oil is an attractive treatment approach because “supplements are considered very safe and could be easily translated into everyday care.
Fish oil would be easy to take, like a vitamin, and should have few side effects when combined with other medications,” explained Yorek.
Previous studies of obesity and diabetes have reported better blood sugar handling, liver function and reduced inflammation with omega-3 fatty acids treatment.
The health benefits were attributed to protective molecules produced from omega-3 fatty acids, including one type called resolvins.
The research group had previously observed that diets enriched with omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil improved diabetic neuropathy in rats with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, and in this new study they examined why.
Researchers used a mouse model of diabetes to study the effect of fish oil. Diabetic mice were fed a high-fat diet and treated with daily injections of resolvin or given a high-fat diet in which half the fat came from fish oil.
The results were compared to healthy, non-diabetic mice. The researchers found that untreated diabetic mice had diminished sense of touch in their paws that corresponded to fewer nerves in the paw’s skin and slower transmission of signals along the nerves.
The eyes of untreated diabetic mice also had fewer nerves. Though dietary fish oil and resolvin did not lower glucose levels closer to healthy range, they improved nerve health in terms of density and sensory signal transmission. The researchers also observed that resolvin stimulated nerve cells to grow.
“Even though a lot more work needs to be done, including clinical trials with human subjects, our animal studies suggest that fish oil can reverse some of the harmful effects of diabetes on the nerves.
Our intent is to do more animal studies to demonstrate that fish oil treatment can reverse the harmful effects of diabetes on nerves even after a long period of poorly controlled diabetes. After completion of this work, we hope to begin studies with diabetic patients with neuropathy,” Yorek said.

with its scaly exterior, peculiar body shape and propensity for rolling into an armored ball when threatened, the pangolin has invited comparison to the artichoke and the pine cone.
But a three-year-old female pangolin at the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre here seemed oblivious to her odd appearance and unaware that she was missing two feet, both lost to a poacher’s snare.
Accompanied by her lone male offspring, she ambled through the leaves and underbrush, sniffed amiably at a visitor’s shoe and headed off to check for leftovers in the bowl of mashed insects prepared by a caretaker at the center.
Elephants and rhinoceroses often serve as the poster animals for the illegal trade in wildlife — the elephant killed for the ivory in its tusks, the rhino for its horn.
But the most frequently trafficked mammal, wildlife experts say, is a far less familiar creature: the pangolin, an insectivore with a tongue longer than its body and a tail so powerful it can hang upside down from tree branches.
Pangolin meat is considered a delicacy in parts of China, where it is believed to nourish the kidneys. Pangolin scales, made of keratin, like human fingernails, are used in traditional medicine to treat skin diseases and other ailments. Trade in the animal has a long history: In 1820, King George III of England was presented with a suit of armor made from pangolin scales.
But the demand for pangolins — and with it the hunting of the animals — has grown sharply in recent decades. Poaching has increased not only in Southeast Asia but also in Africa, according to Traffic, an organization that monitors wildlife trade.
Customs officers seize thousands of pangolins and hundreds of pounds of pangolin scales each year, often disguised as other goods.
In late January, officials in Uganda said they had seized two tons of pangolin skins packed in boxes identified as communications equipment.
In France a few years ago, more than 200 pounds of pangolin scales were discovered buried in bags of dog biscuits.
“You’ve got a big ship coming from Indonesia and it’s labeled frozen fish, and it turns out to be 14 tons of frozen pangolins,” said Annette Olsson, a technical adviser for Conservation International in Southeast Asia who helped open the pangolin rescue center in Phnom Penh but now works in Singapore.
The Cambodian government runs the centre with the assistance of the Wildlife Alliance, a conservation group.
Most countries, including Cambodia, have laws against hunting pangolins. But enforcement is often weak, and the incentive for local poachers in poor rural areas to catch and sell pangolins and other wildlife to middlemen for smuggling organizations is strong, said Bunra Seng, Conservation International’s director in Cambodia.
Sunda pangolins, one of eight pangolin species, were once common here. Bunra said that as a child, he used to see them in the countryside.
But so many have been killed that they and Chinese pangolins are listed as critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The international union considers all of the pangolin species threatened.
“The pangolin runs the risk of becoming extinct before most people have even heard of them,” Britain’s Prince William said last fall in a promotion for an Angry Birds video game tournament intended to bring attention to the animals.
Peter Knights, the chief executive of WildAid, said his and other conservation groups were mounting efforts to rescue the pangolin in advance of the 2016 meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.
Pangolins are listed under the convention’s Appendix II as animals that are not yet threatened with extinction but may become so. WildAid and other organisations argue that pangolins should be moved to Appendix I, which prohibits all commercial trade.
The pangolin’s odd appearance has not helped its cause, Olsson said.
“That’s one of the problems with species like pangolins,” she said.
“It’s not huge and not very charismatic. It’s small and weird and just disappearing.”
Yet, a scaly creature with beady eyes, a narrow snout and a long tail is not without whimsy. A Pokemon character, Sandslash, was loosely based on the pangolin, thought to be the only scaled mammal. And a Colombian company, Cyclus Manufactura, makes a folding pangolin backpack based on the animal’s biomechanics, according to the firm’s website.
Scientists are slowly beginning to learn more about the pangolin’s physiology and behavior. These nocturnal animals are difficult to observe in the wild, even more so now that they are growing scarce, and their habits have been “literally a black box,” Olsson said.
Once thought to be a relative of the anteater, the sloth and the armadillo, the pangolin belongs to the taxonomic order Pholidota, and genetic studies suggest it is more closely related to raccoons and giant pandas than to animals it resembles.
Burrowing in trees or tunnels, pangolins have weak eyes but keen noses to smell insects and powerful claws to dig them up.
Their long tongues are sticky, able to scoop up hundreds of ants at once, their ears closing up to prevent the ants from swarming inside. Like skunks, pangolins can emit a foul odor when threatened.

designers tatoo

Photos taken of the Barca superstar have revealed a striking full sleeve tattoo on his arm – and it really doesn’t suit the four-time World Player of the Year.
Unlike his rival Cristiano Ronaldo, who hasn’t inked his body, Messi has clearly been influenced by the popularity of tattoos in football recently, as he has been increasingly adding to his collection over the past few seasons.
The 27-year-old already has an image of his mother’s face on his shoulder, and the hands of his son, Thiago, along with his name on the back of his left leg.

Despite its infrastructural challenges, Nigeria is among the top three countries in the emerging broadband markets, according to the first Global Connectivity Index, GCI, on West Africa released at the weekend by Huawei Technologies.
Covering 50 countries including Nigeria among others and 90% of the world’s population, the 2015 GCI, highlited on the growing opportunities around the world.
Although all economies are digitizing, the GCI provides a guide of which country is ahead, behind , why and who is poised to move up or back.
The Index , among other things benchmarks 50 economies in terms of connectivity, ICT usage, and digital transformation.
Recommendation:
For a better connected West Africa, Huawei GCI ecommended increased datacenter investment, developing economies need to move from Investing in supply to building demand and learning from developing countries’ success to become Global GCI leaders.

UNlike women, a greater percentage of men detests the family planning. To many of them, family planning is like a suicide mission which may terminate the life of any man that tries it. As Vanguard went round Ibadan city to seek the opinion of married couples on why some homes don’t subscribe to family planning, various reasons were given. They specifically complained about a particular method called vasectomy which means male sterilization. It is a procedure performed on a man that will permanently keep him from being able to get a woman pregnant.
family-planning-pixAs for Mr. Sola Adeyemo, South West Bureau chief of The New Telegraph, it is a dangerous venture for a man to present himself on a slaughter slab where surgical operation would be conducted on him without complaining of any illness. Adeyemo said, “For whatever reason, I can’t do it. What for? I cannot predict what will happen tomorrow so it is a risky venture to now submit myself for surgical operation.
We have seen instances where a family lost two out of their three children in a day. what hope do such people have if they had rendered their reproductive organs useless. But, if they are still okay, they can still have more children. Besides, surgical operation, no matter how perfect is, would certainly not make that person a complete human being again. Is it worth the danger all because I want to do family planning?. Also, I am aware that some of these methods have side effects. If I submit myself for this, I learnt it could result into a man getting fatter and fatter. Please, count me out”.
For Mrs. Yekeen Alimat, a teacher who is heavily pregnant with her second child said “some men don’t cater for their children. It is women who cater for them. So I advise women to give birth to the number of children they will be able to cater for. When I came, they just asked me what kind of method I wanted and that was it. “But, now I am happy because proper counselling was done. Also, check up is necessary to know if such woman does not
have any health challenge before any method is used. Women are advised to give family planning its importance because giving birth to a lot of children in this type of country is not advisable”, she advised.
