ROBBERY SUSPECT GETS STUCK WHILE TRYING TO ESCAPE HIS CELL IN UYO
A 35 year old robbery suspect got stuck in a hole
as he tried to escape his cell from his cell in
Oyo. The inmate, Femi Akanji was caught after
burgling a shop on the 12th of November 2014..He
narrated to the Tribune why he decided to escape.
I decided to escape from the cell to avoid the
trouble I had put myself into, unknown to me that I
was complicating matter. After my two cell mates
had slept, I started using my hands to dig the wall
silently in the dead of the night. I started from a
point where I noticed a crack in the cell. When
some bricks fell, I further used them in digging and
after I had created a hole, I pushed my head into it
and tried to escape before dawn. Unfortunately for
me, I got stuck, so I shouted. My cry brought the
policemen on duty towards the cell and woke my
co-inmates up. That was how I was rescued and
secured till I was brought to Ibadan.”
Now, I know that crime does not pay. If God
should save me from the current situation I am in
now, I will never venture into crime again in my
life. I have realised that whatever is acquired
fraudulently or any ill-gotten wealth does not last.
I have my time and life. If I had been contented
with my little business and had not engaged in
crime, I would not have lost my belongings which
now serve as part of the exhibits recovered.”

SON BEHEADS FATHER IN EBONYI STATE FOR A FUNNY REASON
A son, John over the weekend killed his father, Mr. Ikor Itumo in Ndufu, Ikwo local government area of Ebonyi Statefor being to old.
The Nation gathered that the suspect reportedly suffering from mental problems was said to have beheaded his father and took the lifeless head of his late father to Edukwu Unwu-essa playground in the area, as a mark of heroism for the entire Uduku Ettam Okpitumo community to see, according to eyewitness.
According to sources, after news of John’s dastardly act went round the community, a search party led by youths in the area was immediately conducted leading to the discovery of the cutlass the suspect used.
The Nation gathered that the suspect was later apprehended by the youths and handed over to the police for interrogation into the circumstances that led to the death of the deceased.
Meanwhile the suspect who apparently doesn’t see the crime in what he did said: “My father had become older than my late grandfather, therefore he deserved to be killed. He was no more useful to the society because of his old age.”

A frenchman develops a pill that makes fart smell like chocolate
A Frenchman may have come up with the perfect solution to one of life's major problems after he claimed to have invented a pill that makes bodily gases smell like roses and chocolate.
The 65-year-old inventor Christian Poincheval from north-western France has added a chocolate flavour to his repertoire of scented pills which are all designed to make the smell of flatulence much more pleasant.
Just in time for the festive season Poincheval has added a new line to his array of pills - “The Father Christmas fart pill that gives your farts the scent of chocolate”.
“It’s a nice present for the festive season,” he told The Local on Tuesday. "There will be a real need for these pills over Christmas."
Poincheval, who has been involved in homeopathy, claims the all-natural herbal medicine not only facilitates intestinal transit, but also neutralises the odour of the gas let out.
According to the website that sells the pills, which also come in rose and violet scents, the herb mixture also helps reduce bloating.
He said he began developing them six years ago after a rather disagreeable dinner with friends.
"We had just come back from Switzerland and we were eating a lot with our friends and the smell from the flatulence was really terrible. We couldn't breathe so me and friend decided something had to be done," Poincheval said.
"When we were vegetarian we noticed that our gas smelt like vegetables, like the odour from a cow pat, but when we started eating meat, the smell of the flatulence became much disagreeable," he said.
"We needed to invent something that made them smell nicer"

THE NIGERIA ARMY TAKES BACK CHIBOK FROM BOKO HARAM
The Nigerian army said Sunday it had recaptured and “secured” the
northeastern town of Chibok, where Islamic militants abducted more than
200 schoolgirls in April.
The army recaptured the town Saturday evening from Boko Haram militants,
spokesman General Olajide Olaleye told AFP in a text message. “Mopping up
ops ongoing. (The) town is now secured,” he said.
Leading elder Pogu Bitrus told AFP the town was re-taken in a joint
operation with local vigilantes known as the Civilian Joint Task Force,
who back up the military in several parts of the northeast where Boko
Haram is active.
He said the vigilantes fought inside the town while army soldiers “stayed
outside the town to mop up the insurgents trying to escape.”
Boko Haram had captured the town on Thursday after a battle lasting
several hours.
Several inhabitants said the army had fled the assault, leaving the
vigilantes to fight on their own.
Control of Chibok is crucial to the reputation of the army and the
government, which have come under harsh criticism for their failure to
rescue the schoolgirls.
The Islamists stormed the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok on
the evening of April 14 and forced 276 students onto trucks in a mass
abduction that caused global outrage.
Fifty-seven managed to escape.
The insurrection by Boko Haram, which wants to create an Islamic state in
mainly Muslim northern Nigeria, has claimed more than 10,000 lives in the
past five years.
They have seized more than 20 towns and villages in the northeast in
recent months.

WHY PEOPLE BREATHE INTO PAPER BAGS
The paper bag as a medical device features in everything from old Looney Toons cartoons to big budget movies (albeit mostly romantic comedies). Why are people who start hyperventilating given someone's lunch bag to breathe into? That won't give them the oxygen they need.
And the people do need oxygen. There isn't enough of it getting to their tissues. Unfortunately, hyperventilation isn't going to help. Breathing with too much rapidity is one of those unfortunate responses that seems to short-circuit the body's survival instincts. A person who is hyperventilating has plenty of oxygen in their blood, but it isn't making it to where it needs to go. Blood doesn't just carry oxygen, it carries carbon dioxide, and it needs to carry carbon dioxide. The body responds to the amount of carbon dioxide in the blood. Too little carbon dioxide causes two things to happen. First, there is vasoconstriction, the narrowing of the blood vessels, which chokes off a blood supply to the extremities of the body.
Secondly, there is the matter of blood pH. As it carbon dioxide levels go up, the pH of blood goes down towards the acid end of the pH scale. This stimulates the hemoglobin to release oxygen into the tissues. As carbon dioxide levels go down - as they do when the person hyperventilates - blood pH heads up towards the base end of the scale. This causes the hemoglobin to hang on to its oxygen. So even when blood gets through constricted vessels, it can't deliver as much oxygen to tissues.
The person feels like they're smothering, which they are, and hyperventilates in an attempt to get more oxygen. This decreases the carbon dioxide in their blood even more, and exacerbates the problem. The best way to stop it is to shove a barrier between the sufferer and the open air. By forcing them to rebreathe their exhaled carbon dioxide, it's possible to increase carbon dioxide levels in their blood, and deliver more oxygen to tissues. The paper bag, low-tech as it is, actually does help.
Many doctors, however, are asking that people stop using it. It's not that it's ineffective in treating pure hyperventilation. The problem is, a lot of things trigger hyperventilation. While someone who is panicking can be helped by upping the level of carbon dioxide in their blood, someone who is having a heart attack, or an asthma attack, might be killed by an increase of carbon dioxide. Without knowing the exact cause of the hyperventilation, it can be dangerous to treat it. Perhaps it's better just to hyperventilate for a while — and call a doctor if it doesn't stop.

THE ORIGIN OF EBOLA (GUINEA): PATIENT ZERO WITH THE FIRST EBOLA CASE
In the Guinean village where the current West African Ebola outbreak began, 14 graves mark the spot where the lethal virus began to spiral out of control.
International aid workers who recently visited Meliandou say nothing is normal anymore and that families have been ripped apart by the devastating toll of the virus.
The first known victim of the current outbreak was 2-year-old Emile Ouamouno, who lived in the picturesque forest village with his parents and three sisters, including 4-year-old Philomene.
The boy fell sick last December with a mysterious illness that caused fever, black stools and vomiting. About a week after his death, Philomene got sick and died. She was shortly followed by the children's pregnant mother and grandmother.
It would be months before international health officials identified little Emile as West Africa's "patient zero" in a deadly outbreak that continues to double in size every few weeks. So far, Ebola has been blamed for the deaths of nearly 5,000 people among more than 10,000 cases, the vast majority in West Africa.

JOB EMPLOYMENT ONLINE AS A STUDENT: HOW TO WORK FOR GOOGLE
The reason why most people dont have a blog is because they dont really have the full details on what
"blogging" is all about, others that know about blog or how to blog have not yet ventured into it with seriousness! Lets start with the basics first!
WHAT IS GOOGLE BLOG ALL ABOUT?
A google blog is simply a means provided by google for people to work for them, and they'll pay you if you are a TALENTED, PATIENT, AND HARDWORKING BLOGGER. Note how I capitalized these qualities, because they are the qualities you require as a blogger. Now lets move to the next question!HOW DOES GOOGLE MAKE MONEY?
Now Google make over 70% of their money through ADVERTISING! Google is the MOST popular website in the world! So which means a lot of people use Google, And this serves as a business opportunity as it'll attract a lot of business firms who want to advertise. Note: once anyone has a means of attracting people, be you the media, be you a star. You are a potential means of advertisement, and that is what Google is, and a BIG one for that matter. Therefore Google paste adverts in their web pages for business firms for a certain pay, and this is how Google make their money. Now lets move to the next question!HOW DO YOU WORK FOR GOOGLE THROUGH BLOGGING?
Google has made possible for people to create their own personal employment if they have the qualities I listed above (That is all the qualification you need! No certificates, Nothing!). Google advertise on their pages to make billions of dollars! Now they give you opportunities as a student, a nursing Mother, a single Father etc to employ yourself using their blog. Now when you create a blog, what Google does is to give you a small percentage of their page for you to write anything you think that'll attract people (This is the part where your TALENT comes into play). The problem now will be how long will it take you (This is the part where your PATIENCE comes into play) and how serious you are with your blog (This is the part where your HARDWORK comes into play). Now once you have ventured into this employment opportunity and you've started to attract people on your blog. Google has a system called Google Adsense, This system is left to you to activate anytime you like. You can choose to activate it before you start attracting people to your blog, or you can activate it after, but whenever you do, the system allows google to advertise inside your blog, but this time they'll pay you a percentage of the billions of dollars they make if someone clicks on their advert through your blog (This is called PPC meaning Pay Per Click). You can also decide to make money on your blog by yourself. This involves either selling e-books (online books) or advertising for business men yourself by meeting with them, Or using various forms of adverts. As far as you are TALENTED, PATIENT, AND HARDWORKING enough to generate traffic to your blog. You have already made yourself a self employed student under google, and you get to call the shots on how to manage your blog! (But you have to read Google's Terms and Conditions first, in order to know your limits).CONCLUSION AND ADVICE
Now you have seen the employment opportunity available for you online 24/7, just waiting for you to grab it if you think you have what it takes. Its now all in your hands! My advice to you, if you were inspired by this article, is to NEVER GIVE UP! That is the motto of every successful blogger. To be frank blogging is very simple. It is just like a social network, instead of posting interesting things that people will "like" and "comment" on, and then FACEBOOK will grab all the money. You create your own blog and post your talented status and let people come to your blog to read it. It just pains me to see people with 500 "likes" and 700 "comments" on Facebook, and yet they dont own a blog. What are you waiting for? If people find your Posts interesting, then try and make money from it by creating a blog. DONT WASTE IT!
