HOW TO INSTALL WINDOWS USING USB FLASH

Quite a number of people find it difficult to re-install their OS (Operating System) after formatting either their Desktops or Laptops. You would also agree that it is even more difficult especially if you use a mini laptop or portable notebook which comes with no DVD drive. It means you would have to either buy an external DVD drive to watch your movies, which is quite expensive, or you copy all your media files using a USB (Universal Serial Bus).

Having an external DVD may not be too easy in most cases. Even if it is, you might have to deal with the conscious habit of carrying it around in case you are presented with an opportunity where you would need it. However, having an external DVD would definitely come handy when you are in a situation that requires you to format and re-install your OS or upgrade to another. Most common OS are the XP, Vista, Windows 7 & 8.

If you therefore have need to change to any of these OS aforementioned, you can now do so with ease with a USB! yes you heard me right.

BATTLE BETWEEN LG G3 vs. SAMSUNG GALAXY S5

After months of speculation and countless leaks, LG finally unveiled the G3. And as expected, this beast of a phone is armed to the teeth with the latest and greatest mobile tech. It's clearly been designed with spec-hungry Android fans in mind, and LG is hoping it can one-up the competition in every way. But to get to the top of the Android world, it has to go through the Galaxy S5 first. How do these two superphones compare? Read on for a side-by-side comparison.

The G3 follows closely in the footsteps of last year's G2, continuing LG's tradition of razor-thin bezels and back-mounted buttons. This phone is all screen—5.5 inches worth of IPS LCD, to be exact. That's nearly a half-inch bigger than the Galaxy S5's 5.1-inch display, but it's not just size that sets these two displays apart. LG made a big deal about the advantages of LCD over AMOLED, Samsung's display tech of choice, but the real headline grabber is the resolution. LG is the first to squeeze a Quad HD, 2,560-by-1,440-pixel display into a smartphone. 

That makes for an impressive pixel density of 538ppi compared with the already-sharp

Kidnapped Girls Located

Nigeria’s military has located nearly 300 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram but fears using force to try to free them could get them killed, the country’s chief of defence said on Monday.

Air Marshal Alex Barde told demonstrators supporting the much criticized military that Nigerian troops can save the girls. But, he added, “we can’t go and kill our girls in the name of trying to get them back.”

He spoke to thousands of demonstrators who marched on the Defence Ministry headquarters in Abuja, the capital. Many were brought in on buses, indicating it was an organized event.

Asked by reporters where they had found the girls, Barde refused to elaborate.

“We want our girls back. I can tell you we can do it. Our military can do it. But where they are held, can we go with force?” he asked the crowd.

WITCHCRAFT: BIRD TURNS TO OLD WOMAN

Policemen were battling yesterday to keep away a crowd that stormed their station at Layeni  in Ajegunle, the popular Lagos suburb, to catch a glimpse of a suspect.   The suspect is an old woman who residents described as a confessed witch.

They said a bird turned into a woman who they claimed, seemed to be in her 80s. Among residents who gathered on Ojo Road, Ajegunle, to see the “shocking” scene was Emeka Christian,who said he was with his girlfriend when they saw three flying black birds in the air.

“I jokingly told my girlfriend – Kemi – that two of the birds could be males fighting over the only female among them. We both laughed it over, but we could not believe our eyes when suddenly one of the birds fell and began to transform into an old woman who appeared in her 80s. The two other birds flew away. While some waited in disbelief, others took to their heels,”   said Emeka. 

As the woman rolled on the road, with blood gushing out of her forehead, according to

Poor maintenance leaves Nigeria's Israeli drones grounded

Nigeria bought Israeli surveillance drones years ago that might have been used to hunt for more than 200 girls held by Islamic terrorists, but poor maintenance has left them grounded, two official sources and the aircraft's manufacturer said.

"To the best of our knowledge, these systems aren't operational," Tsur Dvir, marketing officer for Aeronautics Defense Systems, a firm based south of Tel Aviv that supplied Nigeria with Aerostar unmanned aerial vehicles, said on Tuesday.

A Nigerian government source and a former military attache to Nigeria both confirmed the information, although they said details were sketchy owing to the secretive nature of Israeli-Nigerian military cooperation.

The Nigerian military did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but the disclosure could further embarrass President Goodluck Jonathan's administration, which

Jonathan’s Plea For Emergency Extension Granted

The House of Representatives has approved the request by President Goodluck Jonathan for an extension of emergency rule in the three north eastern states of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.

The approval was granted after over two-hour closed door briefing by security chiefs and hours of deliberations by lawmakers.

Although some opposition lawmakers argued that the extension of emergency rule is not necessary in those states, others say it is necessary to give a legal backing to domesticate international treaties in the fight against terror in Nigeria with the force of law.

Addressing a news conference after the proceedings, spokesman of the House, Representative Zakari Mohammed, said the constitution is clear on what needs to be done in times such as this.

The lawmakers may have given the extension required by the executive after what they say was useful insight given by the service chiefs on the security situation in the affected areas.

They also realize the need to follow up the efforts put in by the military to see to the end of terrorism in these states.

OVER 200 BOKO HARAM MEMBERS KILLED IN BORNO.

The fight against Boko Haram has taken another twist these days with civilians now fighting the terrorist group. Villagers are getting organized, weapons are been bought and men are now prepared to deal ruthlessly with this group. There is no need praying for help from the Nigerian Army any longer.

Recently, about 400 Boko Haram members had attacked Rann and neighboring villages with their

#PWAN HOMES: Ibeju-Lekki Real Estate Investment

Real estate investment has been seen to have gained more interest in the past few years especially due to important national projects. At a first glance, many disturbing and sad stories have been heard in respect to people been fraudulently deceived into buying Land/Landed properties without legal documents.

Some have even lost out on court cases for lack of substantial evidence to proof that they own the property. On the other hand, many purchase these properties with all legal documents and still end up in trouble because they did not go all the way to do a background check with the ministry of Lands to ascertain if the said portion of land is free for sale/lease. Many are still yet to fully understand all there is to real estate.

PWAN (Property World Africa Network) came into real estate business with strategic approach to revolutionize the industry. With over 2 years success, it has since been ahead of

#BringBackOurGirls has gone Viral

53 girls have been identified having escaped a mass kidnapping by Islamic militants, potentially subjecting the girls to stigma in this conservative society.

Some 276 girls remain missing, and U.S. officials and agents arrived in Nigeria today to help the Nigerian government, which has been widely criticized for not doing enough to find the girls.

Reuben Abati, a spokesman for Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan, said in a statement late Thursday that the President had met with the U.S. ambassador to discuss “the modalities for the actualization” of the U.S. offer of help. Boko Haram, which wants to impose Islamic law on Nigeria, abducted more than 300 girls from a boarding school in the northeast town of Chibok on April 15. From information gathered, Nigeria will receive support from America, UK and France.

However, it has also been gathered that recently Canada has joined in the support. The government of Borno state, where Chibok is located, said in a statement received Friday that the 53 girls it identified by name include those who fled the day they were kidnapped and those who escaped from Boko Haram camps days later.

Chibok residents are staging a street protest today to press Borno’s government to do more to find the missing girls. It's been recorded that Boko Haram has killed more than 1,500 people this year. It is of course no surprise that the Nigerian domestic terrorism has found support from important celebrities from across the globe. The Hollywood icon, Angelina Jolie, has also shared her concern on the matter.

It has also been said Asia, Europe, America and other countries has joined in the #BringBackOurGirls hash tag on twitter to show concern. Some Nigerians have continued to show their disappointment in the President having to allow this situation deteriorate to its present condition. Are we really not able to take care of our own mess? Your comments would really be appreciated.
