Gunmen abduct Anglican Archbishop in Port-Harcourt.

UNKNOWN gunmen in Rivers State, on
Friday night, abducted Archbishop
Ignatius Kattey, the Dean of the
Anglican Communion in Nigeria and
Archbishop, Niger Delta North Diocese.
The victim was said to have been whisked away with his wife, Beatrice, by the kidnappers around Aleto Bridge, Eleme at about 10.30pm while on his way to Port Harcourt.
Sources close to the archbishop said he
was driving to Port Harcourt to pass the
night there so he could be at the airport
to receive the Primate of the church, Primate Nicolas Oko, who was due in the
state Saturday.
The sources explained that Kattey had thought that yesterday's sanitation exercise in the state that would have warranted restriction of movement would be in force; so he wanted to be at the airport quite early to receive the Primate who was coming to Rivers on Episcopal issues.
The sources said the kidnappers later
abandoned the archbishop's wife and his
vehicle in the bush some distance away
from where the abduction took place, adding that no contact had been
established with the gunmen.
It could not be confirmed if Kattey drove
himself that night but, it was gathered that he rarely moved around with security personnel. "He has a driver.
But he does not move around with
security escorts. He is such a simple and
exemplary religious leader. I pray for his
unconditional and immediate release", a
member of the Anglican Church in Port
Harcourt pleaded.
When contacted, Rivers State Police
Public Relations Officer, DSP Angela
Agabe, confirmed the ugly development,
adding that efforts were on to rescue the
archbishop. Agabe said the police gave
the kidnappers a hot chase when they
were alerted about the abduction; a
situation she said forced the kidnappers
to abandon the wife in the bush around
Aleto.
According to her, the police had set up a
crack search team, assuring that they
would soon secure Kattey's release.
"We are on top of the situation. Our men
rescued the wife who was kidnapped with
him last night. We are combing the bush
and exploring other means to secure his
release", she said.

Windows 10 now on 600 million machines.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told shareholders that Windows 10 has now passed 600 million monthly active users, picking up 100 million since May of this year. This number counts all Windows 10 devices used over a 28-day period. While most of these will be PCs, there are other things in the mix there: a few million Xbox Ones, a few million Windows 10 Mobile phones, and special hardware like the HoloLens and Surface Hub. The exact mix between these categories isn't known, because Microsoft doesn't say. The company's original ambition (and sales pitch to developers) was to have one billion systems running Windows 10 within about three years of the operating system's launch. In July last year, the company acknowledged that it won't hit that target—the original plan called for  50 million or more phone sales a year , which the retreat from the phone market has made impossible. But at the current rate it should still be on track for somewhere in excess of 700 million use...

WZoneLite – A Pretty Cool WooCommerce Amazon Affiliate Plugin .

Everyone wants to make a million dollars by being a blogger. The promise of riches and internet fame is a big draw to doing it for a lot of people, and I’m sorry to say that the reality of being a blogger (even a professional blogger!) is not quite…as financially lucrative as all that. But that’s not to say that it  can’t be –one of the best ways to start your empire is with an Amazon affiliate plugin. For me, the Amazon Associates program has been one of the biggest earners for me over the years. Not only are there CPM ads like Google Adsense (you know, the normal banner ads we all love to hate), but any time someone clicks a link from your site, you get a percentage of  anything  they buy while the token from your site lasts in their browser. If they buy a song, you get a few cents. If they buy a new MacBook Pro and iPhone? You get…a lot more cents. With that in mind, WZoneLite is a  pretty cool WooCommerce Amazon affiliate plugin that syncs everything together s...

Game-changing SEO trends that will dominate 2018.

Changing nature of the rules of the game. As search engines strive to improve the quality of search results, some ranking factors shift shapes, others fall into oblivion, and completely new ones arise out of nowhere. To help you stay ahead of the game in 2018, here’s a list of the most prominent trends that are gaining momentum, with tips on how you can prepare for each. 1. The rise of SERP features Are you assuming a #1 organic ranking is  the  way to get as much traffic as possible? Think again. Increasingly, SERP features (local packs, Knowledge panels, featured snippets and so on) are stealing searchers’ attention and clicks from organic listings.

It has gone all the way from “10 blue links”… … to something that makes you feel like you’re part of a Brazilian carnival. What can you do about it?
