11 Things Hillary Clinton Must Do To Beat Donald Trump | Huffington Post
Share on Digg
PHILADELPHIA ― As a sales device, the Democratic National Convention here was as flawlessly staged as any in recent history.
Minutely choreographed, it was a glittering parade of moving speeches, tearful moments, pop stars and appeals to every stray bloc and believer Hillary Clinton needs to beat Donald Trump.
Unlike last week’s Republican convention in Cleveland, where Trump drilled down into his base rather than reach out to skeptics, Team Clinton executed the classic “pivot” to the general election.
But conventions are just the start. In the age of social media and second-by-second news cycles, they are as evanescent as a tweet.
The real campaign has only just begun.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan launched a crackdown, arresting or purging thousands of military officers, judges, academics, journalists and others.

The EU and America warned Mr Erdogan not to crush democracy. See article .
Chris Abani: ‘The Middle-Class View of Africa Is A Problem’

“When a war is over, it takes another 10 years for a war to be really over,” the novelist and poet Chris Abani says over the phone. “And so I grew up in the detritus of that war; it is something that has haunted me for a long time.”
Abani is referring to the Nigerian-Biafran war, which began in his home country in 1967, when he was 18 months old. Although the war lasted less than three years, it proved a deep influence upon Abani’s life. “I remember things like, as an 18-month-old, having to hunt for snails and bush meat,” he recalls. “The perennial smell of mud and dirt and dying things.”
Baru: Message to Reengineer NNPC By Sonny Atumah

The Greek mathematician Euclid of the 4th century BC who was responding to Ptolemy 1 if there were an easier way to solve theorems said that there is no ‘royal road’ to geometry.

Customised Conflict Resolution Mechanisms By Francis Ewherido

I have been observing this young couple in church since the Sunday after their wedding. They are always on suit-and-suit (clothes made from the same fabric).

I saw them again last Sunday and it just occurred to me that this suit-and-suit might be one of their customized conflict resolution mechanisms (personal ways of resolving differences).
Peripatetic Nuhu Ribadu And The Nobility Of Naked Opportunism By Ugoji Egbujo

Focused and determined war against a legion of rugged looters summoned adoration.

How Nigeria Is Fighting Corruption | Economist

NIGERIANS know what to expect when they approach police checkpoints. “How can you appreciate me?” ask officers, AK-47s dangling languidly from their shoulders. “Happy weekend!” say security guards from the early hours of Friday morning.

In Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index, it is 31st from the bottom. Nigeria’s president, Muhammadu Buhari, a former military ruler, wants to change this. How is he doing?

At the beginning of his war memoirs, Charles de Gaulle famously wrote, ‘All my life I have had a certain idea of France’ and its ‘eminent and exceptional destiny’. It was not only an abstract concept: the picture in his mind was of ‘the Madonna in mural frescoes’. What is President Hollande’s certain idea of France? Presumably it cannot be the Madonna, since Hollande is the child of French laïcité, which creates an unbridgeable gulf between religion and the republic.

Aguiyi Ironsi was thrown unto the national sphere by the events of January 15, 1966, which led to the overthrow of the country’s civilian government by a group of young officers styled as the Five Majors.

All but one of the five Army Majors, Major Wale Ademoyega, were all of Igbo ancestry. Even more remarkable was the fact that the tide of the killings during the January 15 failed coup was heavily tilted against the North.

Men, 10 Things You Should Never Do When You Visit Your In-Laws
In every relationship in the biggest moment comes when you have to be introduced officially to your partners family.

Some families can get under your skin but you need to put yourself together and stay calm.
