I wish there was a 'Mute' button for humans.
Nigerian Flag
The Nigeria Flag consists of three equal bands of green, white and green. The three tri-colored bands of the Nigerian Flagare arranged vertically to each other with the white band lying in the middle of the two green bands.The green color in the flag of Nigeria stands for the lush green forests and agricultural wealth of the country. The white band represents peace and unity prevailing in Nigeria.
Except there’s no peace in Nigeria…..yet.
Cleanse your heart of envy, jealousy and other diseases before you speak, for indeed it's temperament, malice or warmth is often detectable by the other hearts you are speaking to.
“I am Nigerian because a white man created Nigeria and gave me that identity. I am black because the white man constructed black to be as different as possible from his white. But I was Igbo before the white man came.”

The “African Hulu”? →
africastyledaily.com
A group of entrepreneurs from Ghana have teamed up to create ReelAfrican.com, an online television and movie site similar to Hulu, that will give users high quality access to films and TV shows from the continent. Access will be free, as the site plans to use advertising as a revenue stream. The group is in talks to upload content mainly from Nollywood, and Ghana’s movie industry (also known as “Gollywood“), but films from countries like Kenya and South Africa will be available as well.
“The market that wants to watch these films is in the U.S. We would like to see good content coming out of Africa, (but) there’s no way to watch it.” says Victor Mallet, one of the site’s investors.[Variety]
With African filmmakers fighting piracy tooth and nail, this new site seems like the perfect antidote to rampant bootlegging that does more to hurt the various african film industries than help it. The site is set to launch this Fall and has plans to expand into Europe and the Caribbean soon after. Read more here.

The 5 things you gotta know before you let that cop into your house →
offbeathome.com
What do you do when you look through the peephole and see a badge?THIS STUFF IS SOOO IMPORTANT TO KNOW. Seriously. It’s saved my ass before.
- Remember: You do not have to let the police in the house unless they have a warrant — or probable cause. If you’re having a party, turn off the music, ask your guests to chill, and ask that anyone who’s too intoxicated carry on in another room.
- Go outside to speak with the cops. Close the door behind you. Although some scary precedents are being set these days, police cannot enter your home without a warrant or probable cause. By closing the door, you’re cutting off a visual — or olfactory — line to potential probable cause.
- Be polite. Ask why they are there. “Good evening, Officer. What can I help you with?”
- Where possible, assure them you will take care of the problem. If the police ask to enter, inform them, “I do not consent to any searches.” If a police officer gives you an order and you are confused about your position, ask, “Do I have to comply?” If they continue with questioning, tell them you’ll need to call your lawyer and that you will not answer any questions.
- Ask, “Am I free to leave?” This is especially handy if, say, a group of you’d been too bawdy on the patio and an officer stops by. If he/she is getting a bit hot under the collar, politely ask, “Am I being detained?” or “Am I free to leave?” If the cop has no reason to hold you, quickly, quietly, and politely retreat inside.
The POC’s Bill of Rights when it comes to the Police. Remember. These are your rights.
“So what you trying to say? What i’m saying is that she said that you said when she was trying to say what they said. But what she’s saying is that when we were saying what she said that night, it wasn’t what you said. That’s what you’re saying right? you know what i’m saying? And what she’s trying to say is that you said she was saying what they said and that’s not what she said. You know, i’m just saying.”
