Veteran rapper, Ruggedman is the latest celeb to react to the proposed plan by the Nigerian government to discourage production of Nigerian music and movies abroad. According to Ruggedman, ' A woman has just been arrested for exchanging her 2 month old baby for a bag of rice. That's how hard the situation in our country is getting. Meanwhile the budget to run the Nigerian Senate this 2017 is N215billion. A government that has not in anyway supported or encouraged the Nigerian entertainment industry,now thinks it can control it. An industry that men and women have single handedly built? BIG JOKE! ' 'We watch you use the country any how you like because unfortunately, you are the ones at the helm of affairs.

So Inspiring: See the 86-year-old Grandmother Who Graduated From University After Leaving at 15

Image
An inspiring report by Metro UK, has shown how Peggy Styles, an old woman, completed an EdD (the educational equivalent of a PhD) in counselling this year, graduating today from the University of Bristol. She began studying for her doctorate at 78 years old, and it’s taken her eight years to complete her studies. Now, at 86, Peggy is the oldest student to have ever graduated from the University of Bristol. The road to her EdD wasn’t easy. Born in England to Belgian parents in 1931, Peggy moved back to Belgium when she was six, returning to England as a refugee in 1940. The changes and language difficulties meant Peggy struggled to learn, and she left school at 15 years old with only a qualification in shorthand typing. She eventually got married, and after her husband left the army to get a job managing a factory, Peggy volunteered to help set up a refuge for abused women. Peggy only decided to return to education when her family relocated to Bristol, and her grandson, O...

The heart is a muscular organ in humans and other animals, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system. Blood provides the body with oxygen and nutrients, as well as assists in the removal of metabolic wastes. In humans, the heart is located between the lungs, in the middle compartment of the chest. The human heart is situated in the middle mediastinum, at the level of thoracic vertebrae T5-T8. A double-membraned sac called the pericardium surrounds the heart and attaches to the mediastinum. The Heart is very delicate hence the reason we take a lot of precaution when it comes to our diet and what may likely affect it.You may not even realize it, but chances are good that you eat at least one thing that’s terrible for your heart on a daily basis.
