Lau Lagoon is a 35 km (22 mi) lagoon which contains more than 60 artificial islands, and it is located on the northeast coast of Malaita Island, of the Pacific island nation of the Solomon Islands.

The artificial islands are built on a reef, and the Lagoon is home to a number of different villages, the largest of which is Forau.

As it is the largest with around 1,500 inhabitants, the number can increase due to the important local feasts or religious holidays, such as Christmas and Easter.

The people there call themselves “salt-water people”, as opposite for “bush people” who are the inhabitants living in the interior of the bigger island.

Because of that there were conflicts between these people, and building the artificial islands allowed some sort of protection against attacks. These islands were formed literally one rock at a time.

A family would take their canoe out to the reef which protects the lagoon and then dive for rocks, bring them to the surface and then return to the selected site and drop the rocks into the water.

Living on the reef was also healthier as the mosquitoes, which infested the coastal swamps, were not found on the reef islands.

The agriculture is really important for the people of the main island, as they are growing swamp taro, sweet potato and yam, as well as papaya, banana, sugar cane, coconut and green vegetables.

The other important part of their lives is of course, the fishing.

As there is no formal accommodation on the islands, still one can always asks one of the chiefs of the islands whether if it is possible to stay with them on the island. Still, getting there could be tricky, but you can learn a lot from talking with the locals.

Isaac Boro Park is a public park and outdoor recreation area located along the Old GRA neighborhood of Rivers State capital, Port Harcourt.

The park is named after Isaac Boro, who was one of the pioneers of minority rights activism in Nigeria.

The geographical coordinates of the park are: 4°47’16″N (4.787960), 7°0’19″E (7.005517).

Situated just opposite the Mile One Flyover, Isaac Boro Park is home to baseball and softball in Port Harcourt.

Isaac Boro Park is bounded to the south by Bauchi Street, north by Ogbodo Street and Blue Street, west by Ikwerre Road and to the east by Ohia Street

On numerous occasions between 2006 and 2013, the park hosted the annual international trade fair and continues to serve as venue for memorable events such as the Armed Forces Remembrance Day, the Workers’ Day and the National Youth Service send-off parade ceremonies.

Fiona washed houses into the sea, tore the roofs off others and knocked out power to the vast majority of two Canadian provinces Saturday as it made landfall as a big, powerful post-tropical cyclone.

Fiona transformed from a hurricane into a post-tropical storm late Friday, but it still had hurricane-strength winds and brought drenching rains and huge waves. There was no confirmation of fatalities or injures.

Ocean waves pounded the town of Channel-Port Aux Basques on the southern coast of Newfoundland, where entire structures were washed into the sea.

Mayor Brian Button said Saturday over social media that people were being evacuated to high ground as winds knocked down power lines.

“We’ve already had houses … that are washed away,” he said.

Button said anybody who has been told to leave their home needs to leave.

“I’m seeing homes in the ocean. I’m seeing rubble floating all over the place. It’s complete and utter destruction. There’s an apartment that is gone, that is literally just rubble,” said René J. Roy, a resident of Channel-Port Aux Basques and chief editor at Wreckhouse Press, said in a phone interview.

Roy estimated between eight to 12 houses and buildings have washed into the sea. “It’s quite terrifying,” he said.

Aorounga Crater is an eroded meteorite impact crater that is located in the central African landlocked Republic of Chad.

Estimated to be less than 345 million years old, this impressive mark on the Earth has a diameter of 13 km (8 mi), and it is one of the best-preserved impact structures in the world.

According to the research that was carried out in 1994 by the Spaceborne Imaging Radar, it is thought that Aorounga is one of a set of three craters formed by the same impact event, where the other two suggested impact structures are buried by sand deposits.

Even though this has not been yet confirmed, the main Aorounga Crater was renamed Aorounga South, and the central highland, or peak, of the crater is surrounded by a small sand-filled trough, which in turn is surrounded by a larger circular trough.

Linear rock ridges alternating with light orange sand deposits cross the image from upper left to lower right, where they are formed by wind erosion of exposed rock layers in an unidirectional wind field.

Even though there are not that many sources for a clearer information for this interesting “design” by the nature, it is located next to Emi Koussi Volcano, and we shall be waiting for a better times to come in Chad, so that the scientists would go there and do more research.

The Federal Government has approved the dredging Orashi River to the Atlantic Sea which will serve as the first sea port in the South East region.

This new development is coming days after President Muhammadu Buhari visited the State to commission laudable projects embarked upon by the Shared Prosperity Government of Gov. Hope Uzodimma and in what can be best described as the real Uzodimma magic is the approval of a Seaport in Imo State amongst many other Federal Government projects dragged to the State.

When completed, the seaport will complement the economic activities of the other six major seaports in the country which will enable traders from the zone import and receive their goods directly while enjoying a comparative advantage as well as promote and encourage the business spirit of the people of South East.

This will in no measure turn Imo State to the business hub of South East and by extension the country as it will increase the State’s internal revenue, siting of industries and create employment opportunities.
