Nollywood And The Nigeria's Ebola Story

LAGOS: Two years after Nigeria fended off what could have been a devastating Ebola epidemic, the 12-week ordeal is playing out again — only this time, on a movie screen.

The Nigerian docudrama "93 Days," which premiered in Lagos on Tuesday, chronicles the harrowing weeks in the summer of 2014 when a man ill with the Ebola virus arrived in the city from Liberia.

Ebola is transmitted by contact with infected bodily fluids, and Lagos, a densely-populated city of 20 million where people shop in packed markets and ride on overcrowded buses, presented an ideal environment for the virus to spread.

A new fossil discovery makes it even tougher for Darwinists to explain the origin of life.

There’s an old story about a chemist, a physicist, and an economist stranded on a desert island with nothing to eat but a can of soup. Puzzling over how to open the can, the chemist says, “Let’s heat the can until it swells and bursts from the buildup of gases.” “No, no,” says the physicist, “let’s throw it off that cliff with just enough kinetic energy to split it open on the rocks below.” The economist, after thinking a moment says, “Assume a can opener.”

KINSHASA, Congo — In a calm corner of this typically chaotic capital city, the expressionless face of President Joseph Kabila stares down from a billboard urging patience and dialogue. “I launch a final appeal to those who still hesitate to respond to the resounding call of their homeland,” the sign reads in a veiled reference to the country’s dangerous electoral impasse.

Watch: 8-Year-Old Golfer Knocks Drone Out Of The Sky

Australia’s top youth golfer has added a new title to her Instagram profile: “Drone Killer.”

A 48-second video shows the golfer, 8-year-old Ruby Kavanagh, driving a golf ball directly into a $1,900 drone. The damaged drone, which had been filming her swing from above, wobbles a bit, and then plummets into some nearby grass.

“An eight-year-old girl killed this drone,” a male voice, seemingly belonging to the cameraman, can be heard saying over the wreckage.

The video has encountered both fanfare and skepticism on YouTube, where some have charged that it’s a fake. Doubters point to the strange timing of the fall and the graininess of its aerial footage, among other things. Others have simply chosen to enjoy the sight of a small girl smashing an expensive piece of spying equipment out of the sky.

Watch the video above and judge for yourself.

Nigeria's Startups Get Boost from Buhari, Zuckerberg

ABUJA, NIGERIA — 

Nigeria has a growing technology scene full of ambitious young entrepreneurs who are seeking out solutions to various social challenges.

There is Angel Adelaja, the CEO of Fresh Direct Nigeria, which specializes in urban farming to meet Nigeria's dependence on importing food products.

Nigerian Students Shorted And Treated ‘Like Animals’ By Alabama State University

Godsgift Moses, Promise Owei, Thankgod Harold, Success Jumbo, Savior Samuel, and 30 more Nigerian students came to America hoping it would be the promised land.

It’s only fitting that “Opportunity is here” is the motto of Alabama State University, listed as one of America’s 100 Historic Black Colleges and Universities, and where they got full scholarships from a Nigerian government fund for four years of education. Instead of getting opportunity, they say the school took their country’s millions and used the money to discriminate against them.

Despite Her Achievements,Serena Williams Is Constantly The Target Of Disgusting Racist And Sexist Attacks

Serena Williams, who's widely considered the greatest woman tennis player ever, has made history again: Monday, she defeated Kazakhstan's Yaroslava Shvedova in the fourth round of the US Open, giving her more Grand Slam victories (308) than any other tennis player.

But longtime fans know that, along with celebrating, they should brace for more of the expressions of bigotry have threatened to tarnished nearly every victory, magazine cover, and interview of her entire incredible career. All too often, instead of being celebrated, she's targeted with outrageous racist and sexist comments.

Near-Fatal Ambush for U.S. Diplomats

On the night of July 7, seven American diplomats in Juba left a farewell dinner early and were headed back to the U.S. Embassy, anxious to avoid the city’s deepening chaos, when their two-car convoy was ambushed by the South Sudanese presidential guard of Salva Kiir.

South Sudanese troops fired between 50 and 100 rounds at the two armored SUVs as soon as they passed the presidential palace. No one in either vehicle, which included James Donegan, the second-highest ranking U.S. official in South Sudan, was hurt or killed in the attack, but it wasn’t for a lack of trying: Three separate clusters of South Sudanese soldiers unloaded on the unarmed diplomats’ vehicles. Eventually, a U.S. Marine rapid response team from the embassy had to fetch three of the waylaid Americans and their South Sudanese driver.

A UFO Causing The SpaceX Rocket Explosion?

Last week, one of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets spontaneously combusted on the launch pad while undergoing testing. It was a dramatic explosion (although Elon Musk would prefer to call it a "fast fire"), but according to the foil-hat-wearing corners of the internet, it was caused by aliens, or possibly a drone.

Grainy videos are doing the rounds on YouTube that claim to show a drone hitting the rocket right around the time of the explosion. At first glance, they are actually convincing: a dark blob travels right above the rocket as it explodes. Illuminati? Mars people threatened by Musk's desire to nuke Mars? Or, just a bird.

No More Burka In Northern Iraq: ISIS

Isis have banned the burka in some of their security centres in northern IraqReuters

In a seeming U-turn, the Islamic State (Isis) has reportedly banned women wearing the burka in northern Iraq after claiming that its fighters have been targeted by a veiled female. The hard-line faction has previously beaten and killed women for not wearing a veil covering their face and hair in public.

Now, IS (Daesh) has outlawed women wearing veils entering their security centres near their stronghold of Mosul after a number of commanders were killed by an unknown assailant. In neighbouring Syria, the feared IS al-Hisbah — or 'religious police' — have meted out punishments to woman who left their face uncovered.

Nigerian Military Denies 'Arrest' of Boko Haram-Linked Reporter

A Nigerian journalist accused of having information about the whereabouts of the Chibok girls abducted by Boko Haram has been arrested according to multiple reports, though the Nigerian military has denied the claims.

Ahmad Salkida was declared wanted in August by the Nigerian military, along with two other persons, after Boko Haram released a video purporting to show scores of the girls, who were abducted from their school in Chibok, northeast Nigeria, in April 2014. Salkida was one of the first journalists to circulate the video on social media.

World's Best Universities In 2016, Part 1

It’s that time of year again: when rival analysts offer their competing versions of the global university rankings.

This year, it’s QS that’s first off the mark, with a table that shows the U.S. consolidating its grip at the top of the rankings, but the emerging threat from Asia is gaining traction.

For the first time since the rankings were compiled in 2004, the U.S. occupies all three top spots. Massachusetts Institute of Technology hangs onto its top ranking, followed by Stanford and Harvard. Along with California Institute of Technology (5th) and Chicago (10th), they ensure that the U.S. has half of the top 10.
