PDP reacting to the press statement by the APC says the fast is an act of blasphemy and also showing disrespect towards what is supposed to be held sacred.A fast which was declared through a Press Conference by the All Progressive Congress (APC) slated to begin Yesterday Tuesday, March 25, 2014 against the governorship candidate Nyesome Wike of the People Democratic Party (PDP).

Is Obama Safe? As Secret Service Agents Protecting President Obama Found Drunk And ‘Passed Out’ In Netherlands

#askaroundnow

Three Secret Service agents on Pres. Obama’s detail who were charged with protecting Obama in Amsterdam this week were sent back to the U.S. and put on administrative leave Sunday after getting wasted, reports The Washington Post. Guarding the President of the United States is serious business no matter who occupies the White House, but the vitriol directed at President Obama is unprecedented. The Secret Service is the only thing separating Obama from a disaffected voter or mentally disturbed person who would do him harm, but those in President Obama’s detail seem more focused on partying than adhering to their job responsibilities.

Members of the hotel staff contacted the U.S. Embassy after they found one Secret Service agent drunk and passed out in the hallway. The embassy contacted managers at the Secret Service to notify them about the behavior of their agents.

Ed Donovan, Secret Service spokesman, later confirmed that the agents were sent home for “disciplinary reasons.”

The three agents, who are members of the Counter Assault Team, allegedly got intoxicated at the Huis Ter Duin Hotel.

Quidditch comes to live:-Japanese inventor reveals the HoverBall with a DRONE inside and says it could lead to new sports - and improve existing ones

#askaroundnow

It is the dream of Harry Potter fans everywhere - a real life version of Quidditch.

Now a Japanese inventor has made the game a step closer, with a flying ball containing a tiny drone.

He says the ball can be kicked, hit and remotely swerved - and that it will lead to a new generation of cyber sports.

Developed by Jun Rekimoto at the University of Tokyo and colleagues, the plastic ball has the ability to hover thanks to a 90-millimetre-wide drone embedded inside it.

'Balls are the most popular equipment for sports,' said Rekimoto.

'To play with balls, certain physical methods, or “vocabularies”, such as throwing, hitting, spinning, or kicking have been developed by reflecting the fact that balls obey physical dynamics.

'While this feature forms the foundation of ball-based sports, we consider it might as well limit the possibility of them.'

The hovering ball could be the first step towards a real life version of the game Quidditch played by Harry Potter

BIZZARE ;-Gay Banker Strangles Wife, Burns Her Body Just To Hide His Homosexuality

#askaroundnow

Jasvir Ram Ginday, 30, is accused of killing wife Varkha Rani, 24, on September 12 last year.

A bank worker who married to conceal his homosexuality strangled his wife a few months later with a metal vacuum pipe, a court heard yesterday.

Jasvir Ram Ginday throttled Varkha Rani and tried to destroy her remains in an incinerator after going through with the arranged marriage to please his parents.

The couple tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in India last March – even though Ginday, 30, had confided in a friend years earlier that he was attracted to men, the jury were told.

The defendant had travelled to the subcontinent with his mother to find a bride and met several women before a match-maker known to both families introduced him to Miss Rani.

Prosecutor Debbie Gould told a jury the couple became engaged ‘at the end of a meeting which lasted several hours’, with Miss Rani’s family believing Ginday to be ‘a perfect match for their intelligent, well-educated, and attractive young daughter’.

The bride, who had completed a degree and a master’s degree in science and information technology in India, moved to the UK to live with Ginday in August after being granted a visa.

But just a month later, police discovered the unrecognisable remains of the 24-year-old bride in the back garden of the home they shared with other members of Ginday’s family.
