Nurse Kills 38 Patients For Irritating Her

Italian police have arrested a nurse suspected of killing at least 38
 of her patients because they, or their relatives, were irritating her. 
The officials also found a selfie, with the nurse giving a thumbs-up in 
front of a recently deceased patient.

Daniela Poggiali, 42, a
 hospital nurse was arrested in her native town of Lugo in the
 northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna, a province of Ravenna,
 reported Corriere della Sera, an Italian daily newspaper.

The police suspect her of the murder of an elderly patient, Rosa
 Calderoni, 78, who was taken to hospital with a routine illness.
 Tests showed that Calderoni died of an injection of potassium
 chloride, a medical substance, which can trigger cardiac arrest.

Potassium leaves no traces in the patient’s bloodstream after a
 few days and it makes it more difficult to investigate the case,
 the prosecutors told Corriere della Sera.

The investigation revealed that the nurse was not only culpable
 of Calderoni’s death but also the deaths of at least 38 patients.
 All of them were reportedly murdered in 2014. At least 200
 witnesses gave testimonies against ‘the worst nurse.’

Police officers also found a scandalous selfie of the nurse
 smiling and giving a thumbs-up in front of a recently deceased
 patient, Chief Prosecutor Alessandro Mancini told a press
 conference.

“I can assure you in that in all my professional years of
 seeing shocking photos, there were few such as these,” added
 Manchini, adding that the nurse was “unperturbed” during
 her arrest.

"When we went to arrest her, she was silent, impassive,"
 he said.

One of the nurse’s colleague spoke of her as a "cold person
 but always eager to work."

Other medical personnel at the hospital added that they suspected
 her of giving the patients doses of laxatives, drugs that
 facilitate or increase bowel movements, at the end of her shift.
 They said Poggiali did this to annoy and embarrass them.

"We wondered whether these deaths could be so frequent
 without anyone doing anything," a co-worker told Corriere
 della Sera.

property with a white-sand beach.

Zuckerberg paid a reported $100
 million for both properties which currently houses about two dozen small huts used by locals as vacation 
spots or permanent homes. It’s rumored that Zuckerberg is paying these 
residents large sums of money to vacate so that his compound can be 
totally secluded, though a source tells Forbes that he plans
 to build just one home.

In sum, I can say Mark Zuckerberg just bought part of Hawaii. Yeah, he just bought part of a state!However, he will be joining the likes of Michael Dell, Larry Ellison and Steve Case who are already owing expensive properties in Hawaii.

(18+) BBA Contestants "Showered" With Their Underwears On

The "Shower Hour" is a special segment of the Big Brother Africa (BBA) Show where housemates or contestants are given what is affectionately called the "HotShot" shower session.  
 
However, most housemates prefer to 
take their shower with their underwear on unlike previous seasons and 
both male and females share the same bathroom like previous seasons and 
they are very much aware that it will be broadcasted to the whole of 
Africa. The “Shower hour” and uncut videos can only be seen 
exclusively on a special section on the Big Brother website “BBVIP” 
where viewers have to pay extra to be able access the videos from the 
shower hour. 
 
Here are some of the photos from the "Shower Hour"

Shocking: Why You Should Never Drink "Coke"

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

 If you knew you would need to go for a four-mile run to burn off the calories you have consumed, would you drink a bottle of Coca-Cola? Scientists are calling for exercise data to be printed on packaging - because they think calorific information is meaningless to most people. A 500ml bottle of Coke, for example, contains 210 calories, more than a 10th of the daily recommended intake for a woman. But US scientists think that statistic is ignored by most people and does not work as a health message. Instead, telling them that it would take a 4.2 mile run or 42-minute walk to burn off the calories is far more effective. The researchers, from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore, found that teenagers given the information chose healthier drinks or smaller bottles. Other scientists have called for the same approach to be taken in fast food restaurants. They say that if a menu tells you a double cheeseburger will take a 5.6-mile hike before the calories are burned off, most people would rather choose a smaller hamburger which would require a walk of 2.6 miles. The findings, published in the American Journal of Public Health, adds to growing evidence suggesting that calorific information is ignored by most people. Study leader Professor Sara Bleich said: ‘People don’t really understand what it means to say a typical soda has 250 calories. ‘If you’re going to give people calorie information, there’s probably a better way to do it. ‘What our research found is that when you explain calories in an easily understandable way such as how many miles of walking needed to burn them off, you can encourage behaviour change.’ The research team displayed signs in six corner shops in Baltimore, presenting facts about a 590ml bottles of fizzy drinks.The signs said that to burn off the 250 calories in the drinks would require 50 minutes of running or a five-miles walk. The scientists found that customers bought far more healthy drinks once the signs went up. The average calories of the drinks they purchased dropped from 203 calories to 179. Water purchases, meanwhile, increased from 1 per cent to 4 per cent. Prof Bleich said the findings were especially relevant for young people. ‘This is a very low-cost way to get children old enough to make their own purchases to drink fewer sugar-sweetened beverages and they appear to be effective even after they are removed. ‘There is a strong scientific link between consumption of sugary beverages and obesity. Using these easy-to-understand and easy-to-install signs may help promote obesity prevention or weight loss.’ Separate research found that the same idea worked in fast food restaurants. Scientists at the University of North Carolina found that exercise information persuaded people to choose more healthy food on menus. Professor Anthony Viera at the University of North Carolina said: ‘We believe that labels displaying information about physical activity will allow people to better appreciate the trade-offs of high-calorie foods, and thereby influence them to make choices for foods with lower calories. ‘And we think that labelling foods like this may even have the extra benefit of promoting physical activity.'

Why Ebola Keeps Spreaing In Liberia

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

According to WHO, a total of 4,493 people have died (so far) from the world's worst Ebola outbreak on record. This is the highest so far in the history of the virus. That may be very serious but what is overwhelmingly serious is that about half of that figure are cases only in Liberia. 
 
What?? So I begun to ask myself why that should be the case. Just as I was probing, something came up: the health workers in Liberia warn the government of an intended strike action on Tuesday, 14th October, 2014 because they say government is not paying them some wage or allowance as promised. Now that rather got me wild. 
 
"So what is Ebola going to be like in Liberia when the health workers are strike?", I asked. Even when they were active and working, the virus was fast spreading lest to talk of when they're gone. 
 
So it is Thursday, today, and are the health workers on strike? NO! Wow, thank God. Have their wages and allowances being paid? NO! Wow, then I guess Liberian health workers are really patriotic. 
 
Then a little bird whispered to my ear why the workers are not on strike. Interestingly, the reason is probably the same as why the spread of Ebola virus in Liberia is increasing daily. 
According to the little bird, some health workers in Liberia (especially those working closely with dead bodies) are alleged to be taking bribes from families, friends and sympathizers of people suspected to have died from the Ebola virus.

That is to say, such people or families secretly pay monies (between US$100 to US$150) to the health workers so that they can pronounce the death of their beloved ones as not due to Ebola. This, they do to be able to properly bury their dead and organize funeral ceremonies for them because one people realize the person died of Ebola, of course no one would want to get closer to their bodies lest to talk of organizing burials. 
 
This, according to the little bird, is what has been happening for quite some months now. Tha also means everyone who unknowingly get involved with the corpse of such people is definitely not going back home with only tears (from mourning) but also a trace of the Ebola virus in their body. 
 
So, whether this is true or not (and I must say it definitely may be the truth), there is only one question on my mind as an African: what is wrong with the African man so much that he'd want to take bribe for almost everything?
