Shocking!!!! Gorilla gives birth to a baby girl through C section
She is currently in intensive care receiving oxygen at San Diego Zoo veterinary hospital and her mother is recuperating from surgery in a gorilla bedroom.
The Associate Director of veterinary services at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park Nadine Lamberski said that “we think the health of the baby girl gorilla fetus would have been compromised if we delayed the surgery any longer that why C-section was the right decision”.
Mr Nadine said that the baby is healthy and she is in the good care of doctors. The baby is said to be very strong and has a very strong supple reflex.

Kenyatta writes a note to Lupita Nyon’go- Oscar Nominee and Impending oscar winner(?)..

What a cool president we have

By H.E, Uhuru Kenyatta (President of the Republic of Kenya)

I join millions of Kenyan and worldwide fans to congratulate and support Lupita Nyong’o as she confronts one of the biggest nights in her career so far. Lupita’s accomplishment testifies not only to her stupendous talent, but also determination and a willingness to go that extra mile which success unfailingly demands.
She has told one of the most haunting stories from a time when the black person was a mere chattel, to be disposed of at the will of an improvident white owner in transactions then recognised in law as legitimate.
The story of Solomon Northup begged to be broadcast to a postmodern world that is fast losing grasp of the proper context of the universal black experience. 12 Years A Slave is pivotal in sustaining the conversation that surely must take place throughout the world on the true meaning of humanity and dignity.
This conversation is essential to unravelling such harrowing phenomena as discrimination, poverty, genocide and conflict which continue to obstruct human progress. I am inestimably proud that Lupita, a young Kenyan had the opportunity to make her contribution to Black Awareness, and just to tell an excellent human story magnificently. Her role is indelible, and her gift indubitable.
We are grateful that we got to see Lupita, one of our very own, shine so impeccably, and own the global stage so imperiously. Like other fans, I hope that Lupita wins the recognition that she so richly deserves for her scintillating role. I also believe that the fact that Lupita is where she is today -on the cusp of a truly unique accomplishment – is already a massively gratifying milestone.
The youth in Kenya are inspired by Lupita. We hope that her trailblazing exploits continue in order to demonstrate that no barrier to human endeavour is insurmountable. My Government has made the promotion of Arts and Talent a key pledge that must be delivered. We have made progress in that regard, and many young Kenyans will have access to funding for artistic projects, including film and drama.
It is our intention that Lupita becomes the first of an endless line of Oscar nominees and winners from Africa and Kenya. I therefore wish Lupita and her proud family all the best tonight. May this be the beginning of many splendid achievements.

 

Kimunya arrested over irregular 25 Acre land deal

mos Kimunya arrested hours after Keriako Tobiko ordered the EACC to charge him with abuse of office and land fraud
Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission Spokesman Yassin Aila confirmed that Amos Kimunya was picked up on Friday afternoon and was being processed to appear in court on Monday.
“The former minister Kimunya is here with us, and he is likely to be in court on Monday,” Aila said.
After interrogation, Kimunya would likely be granted bail to appear in court on Monday.
The DPP authorised charges against the former Cabinet Minister and two others over the irregular allocation of a piece of land to a firm where he was a director.
In a statement, DPP Keriako Tobiko said when Kimunya was Lands Minister, he caused the land to be allocated to M/s Midlands Limited, a company where he was a director and shareholder without the consent of the Ministry of Agriculture.
The 25-acre piece of land in Nyandarua was part of 75 acres belonging to the Ministry of Agriculture that had been reserved for a potatoes seed multiplication project.
“Following an investigation and recommendation by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), the DPP has authorised charges of abuse of office and fraudulent disposal and acquisition of public property against Hon Amos Kimunya, Lillian Njenga, formerly Director of Land Adjudication and Junghae Wainaina, the Chairman of the Board of M/s Midlands Limited,” read a statement from the DPP’s office.

Alcohol and its effects:

How alcohol is absorbed into the body

Alcohol is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the stomach and the small intestine. Food in the stomach slows down the rate at which alcohol is absorbed, but does not prevent intoxication or drunkenness. All alcohol consumed will reach the bloodstream, regardless of how much food is in the stomach. Alcohol is distributed throughout the water in the body, but not into fatty tissue.

How alcohol leaves the body

The liver breaks down about 91 per cent of alcohol, and a small amount leaves the body in urine, sweat and the breath. The liver can only work at a fixed rate, getting rid of about three-quarters of a standard drink an hour. Sobering up takes time, and cold showers, exercise, black coffee, fresh air or vomiting will not speed up the process. Someone who drinks a lot at night may still have a high concentration of alcohol in their bloodstream the following day.

Possible health benefits of alcohol

Research shows that moderate amounts of alcohol can reduce the risk of developing some types of cardiovascular disease in people aged 40–45 years and over. However, it is important to remember that the risk of cirrhosis, some cancers and other diseases becomes greater with increased alcohol consumption.

Immediate effects

  • After a few drinks the person may feel more relaxed, have reduced concentration and slower reflexes.
  • After a few more drinks, they may have fewer inhibitions, more confidence, reduced coordination, slurred speech and intense moods (for example, sad, happy, angry).
  • If the person continues to drink they may experience confusion, blurred vision and poor muscle control.
  • Continuing to drink may result in nausea, vomiting and sleep.
  • Consuming more alcohol could possibly result in coma or death.

Binge drinking

Binge drinking can be described as drinking heavily over a short period of time or drinking continuously over a number of days or weeks.
Binge drinking is harmful because it results in immediate and severe intoxication. As well as health risks, this can lead people to take risks and put themselves in dangerous situations.
Common effects of binge-drinking episodes are hangovers, headaches, nausea, shakiness and vomiting.

Long-term effects

Heavy consumption of alcohol over a long period of time can cause damage to many parts of the body. Impairment of brain and liver functions can be permanent. If the person’s diet is also poor, this can further affect their health. Emotional difficulties, such as depression and relationship problems, are also likely.
Other possible long-term effects include:
  • cancer of the mouth, throat, oesophagus, lips, liver
  • brain injury, loss of memory, confusion, hallucinations
  • high blood pressure, irregular pulse, enlarged heart and changes in red blood cells
  • weakness and loss of muscle tissue
  • sweating, flushing and bruising of the skin
  • inflamed stomach lining, bleeding and stomach ulcers
  • increased risk of lung infections
  • severe swelling of the liver, hepatitis and cirrhosis
  • inflamed pancreas
  • tingling and loss of sensation in hands and feet
  • for men, impotence, shrinking of testicles and damaged and reduced sperm
  • for women, greater risk of gynaecological problems

Social problems


Excessive alcohol use can effect all areas of a person's life, including family, work and personal relationships.
  • Family problems: Arguments over someone's drinking can cause family and relationship problems that may lead to break up.
  • Work problems: Drinking alcohol at work and hangovers can lead to poor performance and accidents at work, while illness can result in absenteeism.
  • Legal problems: Drink-driving may lead to fines, loss of license and even imprisonment.

Tolerance and dependence

People who drink heavily usually develop a tolerance to alcohol. This means that they need to drink more to experience the same effect. As a result, some people can drink large amounts of alcohol without appearing to be intoxicated. However, the amount of alcohol consumed can still damage their health.
People who regularly drink heavily may become dependent on alcohol. Dependence can be psychological or physical, or both. People who are psychologically dependent on alcohol find that drinking becomes far more important than other activities in their life. People who are physically dependent upon alcohol find that their body is used to functioning with alcohol present.

Withdrawal

If a person who is physically dependent on alcohol suddenly stops drinking they will experience withdrawal symptoms because their body has to readjust to functioning without alcohol.
Alcohol withdrawal symptoms include:
  • loss of appetite
  • nausea
  • anxiety
  • insomnia
  • irritability
  • confusion
  • tremors
  • sweating

In severe cases, alcohol withdrawal may cause convulsions, cramps, vomiting, delusions, hallucinations and even death. A person considering withdrawing from alcohol should first consult a doctor or other health professional.

Treatment

There are a number of drug treatment options available in Australia . While abstinence may be a suitable treatment aim for some people, many programs recognise that for others this may not be possible or realistic. Most programs adopt strategies that have an overall aim of reducing the harms and risks related to the person’s alcohol use.
Some treatment options include counselling, withdrawal (detoxification) and medication (pharmacotherapy). Residential and "out-patient" programs are available.
Treatment is more effective if tailored to suit a person's circumstances, and usually involves a combination of methods.
For referral to a treatment service, contact the alcohol and drug information service in your state or territory.

Teenage boy's incredible poem which can be read backwards retweeted 120,000 times 
A poem by a 14-year-old boy which was posted on Twitter by his older brother has gone viral – because it can also be read backwards. And amazingly when the verse is read again starting with the last line, it has a completely different meaning to the top-to-bottom version. Derek Nichols, from North Carolina in the United States, wrote on Twitter: "Read this... My 14 year old brother wrote this...Crazyyyy," and then tweeted a picture of the poem written out on a sheet of paper – with his left hand caught on camera.
