Attempted fulani to bomb filling station in IKORODU

There was pandemonium in the sleepy town of Ikorodu, outskirt of Lagos, yesterday, as a woman suspected to be conveying some substance suspected to be a bomb was arrested at the weekend near a filling station.
The Fulani woman, according to our correspondents, was arrested by the police when a fuel attendant raised an alarm.

The woman, (names withheld) who was said to be carrying a baby, the source told Nigerian Pilot, had approached a filling station attendant to allow her keep in his custody a black cellophane bag containing the suspected deadly substance that has now been transferred to bomb experts in an undisclosed location for test and analysis.

Nigerian Pilot gathered that drama started when the petrol attendant refused to grant the suspected bomb messenger her request, and in an argument that ensued between him and the woman, unsuspecting passers-by including security operatives stationed few metres from the filling station intervened and upon search of the content in the bag, the substance was discovered and she could not give convincing explanation.

It was gathered that the content of the black bag and the woman were whisked away to a nearby police station for further investigation.

It was gathered that the news of the arrest spread across the length and breadth of Ikorodu as residents went wild as parents made frantic efforts to get their children under their cover at home.
The rumour mill was that Boko Haram has invaded the town and pandemonium was let loose.

At the Sagamu Police Station, Ikorodu where the alleged bomb carrier was kept for preliminary interrogation, armed police men were hurriedly deployed to man the entrance to the station while all manners of visitors were sent back except negligible few with very urgent and important business with the station but who were thoroughly searched.The woman it was learnt will immediately be transferred to the state CID Panti for further interrogation.

  Wikimedia Commons It's more than halfway through 2013 and even though the summer is winding down, there's still plenty of time to book a trip to a great destination. We looked at major developments, cultural trends, and global festivals to find the hottest places to travel around the world in 2013. There are vast untouched landscapes that offer incredible outdoor experiences, cities that are experiencing a cultural rebirth, and up-and-coming destinations that offer great deals and few tourists.

Samsung reportedly close to releasing Glass competitor — and Google’s involved

This one is definitely a rumor, but its source is reliable enough to warrant a little speculation. Analyst and blogger  Eldar Murtazin  tweeted a rather definite message this week that Samsung is “developing [its] own version of Google Glass. We will see it (probably) around April – May under Gear Glass brand.” Given that Google’s own version of Glass is not expected to hit the mass market until early 2014, Samsung’s Glass competitor could very well race Google’s to market. That might seem like a nightmare for Google, which has invested heavily in Glass and is no doubt planning for a strong event launch, but as was pointed out in a CNet article, the use of the word “Glass” implies an official partnership. Samsung is known for its aggressive branding and Google would likely raise legal concerns regardless, so it’s unlikely the brand Gear Glass would be used without a partnership. Does Google even want to sell Glass, or does it just want you wearing face-screens? ...
