Egypt Launch Official Bid To Host 2019 African Cup Of Nations

Image
Egypt on Thursday officially revealed its willingness to take over from Cameroon as hosts of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations “The Egyptian football federation (EFA) declares its candidacy to host the 2019 African Nations Cup which is scheduled to take place in June and should have been organised by Cameroon which is not prepared to host it,” it said in a statement on Twitter and Facebook. Egypt first expressed its interest in hosting the tournament on Wednesday after Morocco — long thought to be interested in standing in for Cameroon — pulled out of contention in a surprise announcement. The Confederation of African Football stripped Cameroon of the tournament last month, citing delays in the construction of stadiums and infrastructure projects and question marks over security. The shortlist of countries bidding to host the tournament is expected to be unveiled on December 25. The 2019 tournament has been expanded to 24 teams for the first time, up from 16 at the 2017 edi

Hard Work Isn't Enough: 4 Tips for Success

Image
I own  a company  that hosts events around the world. This season, I was at our Utah Dirty Dash event, overseeing and walking around with some friends, when one of them made a comment about the guy emceeing. "Isn't it crazy that you got into the event world as the emcee for this event, and now you own the entire thing?" You hear stories all the time about someone who started in the mailroom and became the CEO. It suddenly dawned on me: Five years ago, I knew nothing about hosting successful events. Now, I own an event company that has brought festivities to 3 million attendees in more than 15 countries. Five years ago, I was the newbie. I went to "experts" for advice. Now, most of those experts aren't even in the industry anymore. I wondered, "How am I still here?" And more importantly, what could I tell someone who was just starting out that would ensure them a successful, sustainable career, free from eventual burnout? How could I h

Nigeria’s Petroleum Agency Speaks On Plan To Increase Petrol Price

Image
The Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency (PPPRA) has disclosed that the federal government has no plan to increase the pump price of premium motor spirit (PMS) also known as petrol. The Executive Secretary of PPPRA, Abdulkadir Saidu, gave the assurance on Tuesday. He further pleaded with Nigerians to disregard speculations that there would be an increase from the current price of N145 per litre. Saidu also urged marketers to avoid distorting the pump price of petrol in their various retail outlets, adding that the PPPRA will keep monitoring prices in depots and filling stations across the country. According to him, the agency will ensure strict adherence to the regulated pump price in order to curb “sharp practices” engaged in some retail outlets. The PPPRA executive secretary said any marketer who fails to comply with the directive would be “sanctioned adequately”. While commending petroleum product marketers for entering into dialogue with the federal gove

Did You Know Using Plastic Products Could Increase Your Risk Of Having A Heart Attack?

If you are one of those people that think plastic products are a safe abode for you and have little risks, you may have to think again as they aren’t as safe as you thought after all. Do you treasure your Tupperware? Possess a passion for plastic? If you have any of those blue-lidded containers lining your fridge, you might want to give them a second glance. If you follow trendy news, you will probably know by now that BPA (also called Bisphenol-A), a chemical found in plastic products, is extremely dangerous for the human health. Research shows that BPA from plastic containers can leach into our food and beverages, leading to heart problems, cancer, infertility, and other health issues as we grow older. But even if your plastic is BPA-free, it could still harbour a number of scary health hazards. According to a new study published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, a typical substitute called Bisphenol-S (BPS)—which you’ll find in many BPA-free products—isn’

The statement said the Fuzhou Intermediate People’s Court had granted Qualcomm’s request for two preliminary injunctions against four subsidiaries of Apple, ordering them to immediately to stop selling the iPhone 6S, iPhone 6S Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8, iPhone8 Plus and iPhone X. The move marked the latest in a long-running dispute over patents and royalties between the two California tech giants playing out in courts and administrative bodies worldwide. “Apple continues to benefit from our intellectual property while refusing to compensate us. These court orders are further confirmation of the strength of Qualcomm’s vast patent portfolio,” said Don Rosenberg, Qualcomm executive vice president and general counsel in Monday’s statement. The China case is based

Where Sugar Cane Is Now The New Source Of Electricity

Image
Mauritius: Behold The Country Where Sugar Cane Is Now The New Source Of Electricity Far out into the Indian Ocean where it is forced to be self-reliant, the island nation of Mauritius is weaning itself off fossil fuels by turning to its main cash-crop sugar cane, for electricity. The leftover, crushed sugar cane stalks and tips — dry fibrous material known as “bagasse” — is burned to help power Mauritius and reduce its reliance on coal and oil. Electricity from sugar cane now accounts for 14 per cent of the island’s needs and, when combined with other renewable sources such as solar, wind and hydro, provides nearly a quarter of daily consumption. “The government’s goal is to increase the share of renewable energy in the energy mix to 35 per cent by 2025,” said deputy prime minister Ivan Collendavelloo who is also energy minister. “The 35 per cent is not far off; we will have 11 solar parks by next year and at least two wind farms,” he said. “Independent producers in th
