Nigerian Taliban: Oil & Caliphate in Africa

The renewal of violence in the northern provinces of Nigeria brings this oil producing country to the brink of "Talibanization," threatening not only the precarious ethnic and religious makeup of the most populous African state but also the entire region, from Chad to Senegal. The fight between the now-called "Nigerian Taliban" and the governmental forces took place this week within a country whose borders are 300 miles from where President Barack Obama stood inside the Ghana Parliament to addre

Doctors familiar with death by propofol

The inquiry into singer Michael Jackson's death centers on his use of the anesthetic propofol to help him sleep. Three months before Jackson's death, a group of anesthesiologists in Florida warned their colleagues about the inappropriate and dangerous use of the drug. In their report — titled "Death From Propofol: Accident, Suicide or Murder?" — the University of Florida doctors detailed the 2005 death of a 24-year-old woman from propofol toxicity. The woman had no history of drug abuse. But an

How Old is Arsenal Target Salomon Kalou?

Arsenal are in the hunt for Chelsea striker Salomon Kalou, according to reports in the British media. Despite the fact that this transfer rumor makes absolutely no sense whatsoever from Arsenal's perspective (they already have Arshavin, Van Persie, Eduardo, Walcott, and Bendter - not to mention Wilshere and Rosicky) it does perhaps stir up a new African footballer age controversy. The articles in The Telegraph  and The Sun  report that Kalou is 28, not 23 years old, as widely bel

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Africa: the 'Super Size Me' tour

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has returned to Africa for an 11-day, seven-country tour of the continent. I use the term “returned to Africa” because Hillary Clinton has been to Africa before, most recently accompanying President Obama during his visit to Egypt in May and in her role as the U.S. ‘First Lady’ during former U.S. President Bill Clinton’s administration. Some readers may not remember the 1997 whirlwind tour through Africa by Hillary Clinton together with her daughter

San Francisco-Berkeley Brings What We Love

Friday evening and Saturday afternoon ONE members gathered at theatres in San Francisco and Berkeley for the premiere screening of Youssou N’Dour: I Bring What I Love. The film traces the journey of Senegalese artist Youssou N’Dour touring for his album Egypt. Vasarhelyi’s film highlights the contrast of the acceptance the album receives from Youssou’s home and neighboring countries as compared to western culture. From the corners of the theatre I watched audiences cry and cheer, re-live and r

David Beckham PRPS Jeans

There is no doubt that David Beckham is one of the most stylish men on the planet courtesy of fame and a bank balance that ensures he is made out of WIN. One of the things he is especially known for are his jeans, carefully worn in and unlike anything we ever really see in South Africa. The jeans that David Beckham wears are awesome and come from a company called PRPS. The wear patterns on them look properly worn in as opposed to being worn in like some jeans look like, where the pattern seems r

[...::Post-Racial What?::...]

Let me be one of the many black people who know the truth: America isn’t post-racial anything. That is an unattainable dream, and it will never happen. I’ll tell you why. Because we have people like Mr. White Cop and Mr. Uppity Negro Black Cop that play their race and power cards to the letter. Here’s my little racial adventure for the day. My mother’s out of town for the week, so basically I’ve taken the reins of some of her duties like running the company in her stead, busing everyone to whe

According to french newspaper France Football , The Lions of Senegal are trying to enrol 23 year-old striker Moussa Sow from Stade Rennais for their next friendly in Blois, against the Democratic Republic of Congo, as he holds both the French and Senegalese nationalities.
