Windows 8.1 update finally here.



On Thursday, the long-awaited update for Windows 8 was finally released into the wild. Windows 8.1 brings a slew of new features, upgrades, and overall improvements to the operating system and every app that comes with it.

If you've been using the Preview version of 8.1, many of these features should already seem familiar: swiping up from the base brings up the All Apps drawer, desktop backgrounds can move in parallax effect, and of course, the obligatory "Start" button is back (though it's just a visual icon for the home screen).


Other changes include deeper integration with Bing, SkyDrive, and many tweaks that may not seem revolutionary as far as the operating system goes, but add a much-needed level of polish to every native app that comes with it. SkyDrive, for example, runs much better as a native experience: Your files and docs will automatically appear in your SkyDrive no matter what Windows 8.1 device you sign into. Internet Explorer 11 includes the ability to hold unlimited tabs at the footer drawer. Additionally, there is a slew of other improvements that make this a must download for any current Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 Preview user.

You can grab Windows 8.1 via the Windows Store.

How to download for free Windows 8.1 released update.

Start screen
This morning, Microsoft released Windows 8.1. Windows 8 users can upgrade for free by visiting the Windows Store; if you have another operating system, the upgrade will cost you the same price as Windows 8 itself: $120 for the normal version, or $200 for Windows 8.1 Pro. Windows 8.1 is a fairly major update for both tablet and laptop/desktop users, providing a better experience both within the Metro interface on touchscreens and with the mouse and keyboard on the Desktop. Using the mouse and keyboard within the Metro interface, however, still sucks — and the Start button and menu, though technically reinstated, are not back in spirit.
Downloading and installing Windows 8.1

To install Windows 8 follow our guide for Windows 8 operating systems. For the most part, installing Windows 8.1 is quick, painless, and risk-free, so you don’t need to worry about backing up or other preparatory measures. Do make sure you have plenty of free hard drive space, though (20GB+), and if you’re coming from Windows 8.1 Preview, be sure to read the caveats in our guide.

#Assu strike Update.



The All Progressives Congress (APC) has condemned what it describes as FG’s deceit used in order to achieve its goal of ensuring that the ASUU strike ends, by using market women, religious leaders and even students to put pressure on the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) without proper resolution of issues on hand, describing it as lowly and cheap.

Overcoming Doubt



I was lifting with the owner of my gym. She was doing clean and jerks. I was squatting.
In between sets, I asked if she had ever competed in an Olympic weightlifting meet. “You should do one. They are a lot of fun and you’re definitely built to be a weightlifter.”
“That’s what everyone tells me, but I don’t know,” she responded. “Competitions make me kind of nervous. I just think: what if I miss this lift and all of these people see it?”

Let’s pause for a moment.

UK Foreign Prisoners!



Hundreds of Nigerian criminals will be sent home to serve out prison sentences under a deal set to be struck by ministers within weeks, according to a report by UK Daily Mail

Talks are continuing into reaching a compulsory prisoner transfer agreement, which could see more than half of the 500 criminals from Nigeria currently in UK jails repatriated.
Prisons minister Jeremy Wright told MailOnline how 'more foreign prisoners must serve their sentences in their own countries'.

Aluu 4 update!



A high court sitting in Port Harcourt this morning October 17th granted bail to four out of the twelve persons facing trail in the murder case of the four Uniport students. The four are: Omoikiri Aluu monarch: Alhaji Welewa, Okoghiroh Endurance, Ozioma Abajuo and Chigozie Evans Samuel.

How to delete your @Instagram account.

Here's how to say goodbye to sepia filters and walk away from Instagram, without any trace.



To delete your Instagram account, visit Instagram.com and sign in to your account. Next, select your account name in the upper right corner, and then select Edit Profile.

On the resulting page, scroll down, and look for the link labelled "I'd like to delete my account." Instagram will ask you why you want to delete your account--though not before referring you to a page to soothe your concerns about its privacy policy changes.

Select your reason you are leaving Instagram, then enter your password where prompted, then press but button labelled "Permanently deactivate my account."
NB:
Keep in mind that Instagram doesn't have an account deactivation feature like Facebook where you can revive your account later (which admittedly seems a little wonky considering Facebook owns Instagram), or a reactivation grace period like Twitter has. 
Once you press that red button, your account--and everything you've published to it--will be permanently removed, and you won't be able to recover it or reuse your old account name. So before you press that button, make sure that you never want to see a sepia-filtered square photo of a really good latte again.

How to change your network location from public to home #WINDOWS 7



Step One


How to run Android apps on your PC



There are various methods of running Android apps on a PC, but these can be tricky to set up and vary greatly in the levels of performance and compatibility provided.

Genymotion is relatively simple to install and provides pre-packaged Android installations which you can download and run on your PC or Mac. Best of all, it’s fast and supports accelerated graphics quick enough even to run some 3D Android games.

How to take screenshots on Android phone #DIY



You just made it to the top of the leaderboards in your favorite game and want to show off to your buddies.

The easiest way to flaunt your victory is to take a screenshot of your accomplishment and send it to your friends. There's just one problem: You have an Android phone and you don't know how to take a screenshot.
