Mandatory Credit: Mark J. Rebilas/File Photo. Microsoft Corp co-founder Paul Allen, the man who persuaded school-friend Bill Gates to drop out of Harvard to start what became the world’s biggest software company, died on Monday at the age of 65, his family said. Allen left Microsoft in 1983, before the company became a corporate juggernaut, following a dispute with Gates, but his share of their original partnership allowed him to spend the rest of his life and billions of dollars on yachts, art, rock music, sports teams, brain research and real estate. Allen died from complications of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a type of cancer, the Allen family said in a statement. In early October, Allen had revealed he was being treated for the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma,

“We are coming back to fix problems….No more complain, no more failure”, he said via the official PDP tweeter handle. Recall that some Nigerians have complained bitterly on the affairs of the nation and had urged President Muhammadu Buhari who is doing his best for the country to come up with a working blue print that will liberate the country from its current condition. Connecting with the above however, the Nigerian Senate on Tuesday charged the President to sack all the service chiefs and employ new minds with new ideas that will help proffer reasonable solutions to the security challenges in the country. See his tweet below: We are coming back to fix problems… No more complain, no more failure.

JOB CREATION AS A PANACEA TO YOUTH RESTIVENESS (NIGERIA)

By Eric D. Nnaji  CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION The words ‘youth’ and ‘restiveness’ have become so commonly used together in the last couple of years that it seems to have taken on a life of its own. In the last decade and more there has been a proliferation of cases all over the country and indeed the world, of youth agitations which have tons of people dead and valuable infrastructure as well as personal properties lost and destroyed. A sustained protestation embarked upon to enforce a desired outcome from a constituted authority by an organised body of youths, fits the label of youth restiveness. It is also a combination of any action or conduct that constitutes unwholesome, socially unacceptable activities engaged in by the youths in any community. It is a phenomenon which in practice has led to a near breakdown of law and order, low productivity due to disruption of production activities, increasing crime rate, intra-ethnic hostilities, and harassment of prospective d

Eels players slam rumours of rift with Arthur

by Adrian Proszenko Furious Parramatta players held an honesty session to address rumours Brad Arthur had lost the dressing room, vowing to earn the wins required to take the pressure off their coach. As soon as reports emerged this week that Arthur had fallen out with his charges, Brad Takairangi posted a link to the offending article on the players’ group chat. What followed was a frank exchange between the squad in which the players backed Arthur and took responsibility for the Eels’ poor performances.         Plenty of support: Eels stars have come out in support of Brad Arthur.  Photo: NRL Imagery The players subsequently gathered at their training headquarters at Old Saleyards Reserve, away from the coaching staff, to address the issue. “It’s stupid,” Clint Gutherson said of the Arthur speculation. “One of the boys saw it on Instagram and put it on the group chat. “Everyone was furious about it because it’s a lie. He has got so much respect from all of the t

Chelsea team to face Southampton: Morata & Cahill dropped as Hazard returns in FA Cup semi-final

By Oliver Harbord Chelsea Correspondent 07:50, 21 APR 2018 The FA Cup is the final chance for Chelsea to win some silverware this season and at least put a bit of gloss on what has been a slightly disappointing season across the other competitions. With the top four Premier League spots maybe out of reach for the rest of the campaign, winning the FA Cup could be the first time Antonio Conte wins a cup competition as a manager and so he will go to the full strength of his squad. Marcos Alonso is still suspended, but it is likely that Emerson Palmieri will not start the match and instead you could see Davide Zappacosta start the game in the left wing-back role. Up front might be where the biggest decision will come, and Olivier Giroud's performances might warrant a start for the Frenchman over Alvaro Morata, with Eden Hazard and Willian likely to come back into the side after being rested against Burnley on Thursday night. At the same time, Cesc Fabregas wil
