Phones that will not Whatapp after December 2016

Many smartphones will lose their ability to
use the popular cross-platform messaging
application known as Whatsapp. The app
which has become quite useful to Nigerians
has decided to stop supporting some
smartphones.
Whatsapp
Speaking in March 2016 to BBC, the
company stated that it was going to end
support of the smartphones, stating:
“WhatsApp is to end support for a number of
operating systems including Blackberry 10,
Nokia Symbian S60 and Windows Phone 7.1.
“The company said it wanted to focus
development “on the mobile platforms the vast
majority of people use”.
Facebook-owned WhatsApp, which is used by
a billion people worldwide, will stop working
on the named operating systems by December
2016. But it will still work on Blackberry’s
latest smartphone which runs Android.”
Here is a list of operating systems (OS),
Whatsapp will stop supporting at the end of

UN Special Envoy on Tuberculosis: Giving Voice to the Voiceless 03/24/2016 07:24 am ET| Updated 2

A giant ribbon will not hang in front of the White House. No marches will be held. The lights on the Empire State building will not shine a special color. Instead, March 24th - World TB Day-is just like most any other day. Little attention will be paid to the fact that tuberculosis is now the number one infectious disease killer in the world. TB has long been the stepchild of the three major global health diseases - AIDS, TB and malaria. A major reason why is that TB primarily impacts people living in poverty, those who are voiceless or whose voices are simply ignored. It is ironic that a curable disease remains a disease fighting to gain attention. It is also ironic that at a time when Ebola and Zika have put our nation on notice about serious health threats, the same concern is not given to TB, which can spread like wildfire just by coughing. We need to look no further than Marion, Alabama to see how quickly TB can overwhelm a city. TB in Marion is now worsethan in man...

SHORT LOVE STORIES

A girl asked a boy if she was pretty, he said "No". She asked him if he wanted to be with her forever, he said "No". Then she asked him if he would cry if she walked away, he said "No". She had heard enough; she needed to leave. As she walked away he grabbed her arm and told her to stay. He said "You're not pretty, you're beautiful. I don`t want to be with you forever, I need to be with you forever. And I wouldn't cry if you walked away, I would die." A man bought 12 flowers. 11 real and 1 fake. He said, "I will love you until the last flower dies." Boy: Can I take a photo? Girl: Why? Boy: I just want to show my children how their mom looked when she was younger. There was a girl named Becca and a boy named Joe. Becca was in a burning house. None of the firefighters could get in the house because the fire was too big. Joe dressed in one of the fire suits and got into the house. When he got up the stairs, the ...
