PREMIUM TIMES REPORTED, ASUU Strike: NANS barricades Niger Bridge for hours Premium Times Published: October 18,2013 The students appealed to the lecturers to call off the strike. The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) on Friday barricaded the Asaba axis of the Niger Bridge for more than two hours. The action, which was jointly carried out by some university students and their polytechnic counterparts, was in protest against the protracted strike by ASUU. The aggrieved students blocked the bridge at about 1 p.m., which resulted to a traffic gridlock that stretched from the bridge to Okwe junction about five kilometres to Asaba Town. They also lamented the recent decisions of polytechnic lecturers under the auspices of ASUP to also embark on a similar strike, saying it would further cripple the education sector and send a wrong signal to the international community. ...

BBC NEWS reported that, US government heads back to work October 17, 2013 13:59 Katy Watson reports Hundreds of thousands of US government employees are heading back to work after President Barack Obama signed a law ending a 16-day government shutdown and extending the US debt limit. The cross-party deal came hours before the US government risked running out of money to pay its bills. China welcomed the deal, and the head of the International Monetary Fund called it "important and necessary". It followed 16 days of partial government shutdown. The shutdown began when Congress failed to agree on a budget by 1 October. Congress voted through the deal less than a day before a deadline to raise the $16.7tn (£10.5tn) debt limit. The measure approved in Washington funds the government to 15 January, and extends the Treasury's borrowing authority until 7 February. The deal, however, offers only a temporary solution and does not resolve the budgetary issues that fiercely di...

BBC NEWS reported that, Extreme weather 'keeps people poor' October 16, 2013 03:04 By Matt McGrath Environment correspondent, BBC News New research suggests that extreme weather events will keep people poor in many parts of the world. The authors argue that where disasters like drought are prevalent, they can be the most important cause of poverty. They say that up to 325 million people will be living in countries highly exposed to natural hazards by 2030. If aid is not used to reduce these risks, the progress made in fighting poverty could disappear. The report has been compiled by the Overseas Development Institute. It examines the relationship between disasters and poverty over the next 20 years, using population projections, climate models and estimations of how governments can cope with extreme events. The report suggests that up to a third of a billion people could be living in the 49 countries most exposed to the full range of natural hazards and climate extremes in...

It involves the highest responsibility, rewards the greatest labor,  and condemns all who trifle with its holy contents. Here Paradi...

BBC NEWS reports Where one in ten will publish a book according to BBC NEWS October 13, 2013 23:33 By Rosie Goldsmith BBC News, Reykjavik Iceland is experiencing a book boom. This island nation of just over 300,000 people has more writers, more books published and more books read per head, than anywhere else in the world. It is hard to avoid writers in Reykjavik.
