In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, we take a look at one of the strangest and deadliest natural disasters you've probably never heard of — the 1986 Lake Nyos disaster in Cameroon. Overnight, a silent cloud of carbon dioxide erupted from the lake, wiping out over 1,700 people and countless animals in minutes. We break down what caused it, the terrifying science behind limnic eruptions, and how events like this could still happen elsewhere. Plus, in his podcast debut, our Director of Photography Andy shares his own brush with danger — a close call with a charging rhino — and we talk about how these rare encounters can change your understanding of nature's power.Watch our HISTORY Channel show on:  - HISTORY - TUBI Follow us on: - Facebook  - Instagram - Twitter - Youtube - Our Website

Oriole Resources PLC CEO Martin Rosser talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's announcement of a significant maiden exploration target at its Mbe project in Cameroon. The milestone was achieved in under nine months from the start of the maiden drilling. Rosser explained that the independent consultant Forge estimated a median tonnage of 38 million tonnes at a mean grade of 0.86 grammes per tonne gold. This includes a mid-range level of 1.10 million ounces of contained gold. Rosser stated, "As soon as you get over 1,000,000oz, you are really motoring," underscoring the importance of this figure. The target model is limited to 200 metres below surface and is based on 2024 trenching data and assays from 13 of 24 planned drill holes at Mbe South. He added that grade tonnage sensitivity analysis showed strong retention of contained ounces at higher cut-off grades. The project shares mineralogy similarities with the Bibemi project and is considered suitable for open-pit mining methods. Rosser also noted that drilling at Mbe South continues and the company expects to deliver a maiden pit-constrained Mineral Resource estimate in the fourth quarter of this year. He emphasised the potential across the broader Mbe licence area and the company's surrounding eastern CLP licences in Cameroon. Visit Proactive's YouTube channel for more videos like this.

Music written and performed by Katherine Camp   Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… This is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. This is the second episode of Aba aba, or Gymnarchus niloticus, and the second thing I like about this little known fish is where they are found. Let's talk about where in the wild this fish is naturally found and what kind of habitat they tend to like best. This episode may be a bit shorter than most, but I promise to make up for it in future episode of this series. In episode one we found out that the Aba Aba is found in Africa. They can inhabit bodies of fresh water in the Nile, Turkana, Chad, Niger, Volta, Senegal, and Gambia basins. It is wide spread throughout West African countries of Egypt, Benin, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Chad, Cote d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda, and Gambia. It has been reported in Cameroon, where it is an introduced species, but identification here still needs further confirmation. By widespread I mean that they can be found in various bodies of freshwater such as lakes and rivers in these areas but they are sparsely spread.  These fish need fairly large territories, remember that can get up to five feet in length and weigh 42 pounds, and spend most of their lives as solitary individuals, so therefore, they are sparsely spread throughout their natural habitat. Now that we know where in the world to find these amazing fish, what kind of habitat are we looking for? We know they like freshwater and can be found in lakes and rivers. They will most often be found in areas with dense aquatic vegetation. They use this to hide from larger predators and to help camouflage themselves from prey items.  In rivers, they favor the edges of the water near the banks to keep out of the rushing currents toward the middle. Don't get me wrong, they can swim well, but the edges host the plants they need to rest in during the day. Aba aba are nocturnal, so they are most active at night and they spend their days resting in the vegetation. They can use the plants a bit like a hammock, supporting them while they sleep. Aba aba fish have very small eyes and are a bit sensitive to light so this is another reason to live in and around thick vegetation.  Their behavior is seasonally influenced by the rains of this continent, as are many species of animals that live on the African continent. When the rains come breeding season begins, but you'll have to wait for the next episode to find out the unique breeding behaviors of the Aba aba. That's it for the second episode of the Aba aba. Thank you for joining me to find out where this amazing fish lives because it is my second favorite thing about them.  If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about the Aba aba.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

This Day in Legal History: Vermont Abolishes Slavery for MenOn July 8, 1777, the Vermont Republic adopted a constitution that became the first in what would eventually become the United States to formally abolish slavery. At the time, Vermont was not yet a state—it was an independent republic formed after declaring independence from both New York and British colonial rule. The new constitution, influenced by Enlightenment principles and revolutionary ideals, declared that “no male person born in this country, or brought from over sea, ought to be held by law, to serve any person, as a servant, slave or apprentice” after the age of 21.This clause effectively outlawed slavery for adult men and set the groundwork for emancipation, although enforcement was inconsistent. Vermont's action was revolutionary, especially considering that slavery remained deeply entrenched in both the southern and northern American colonies. While other Northern states like Pennsylvania and Massachusetts would later take steps toward abolition, Vermont's constitutional ban was a bold and early legal rebuke of human bondage.Despite its symbolic significance, the legal impact was somewhat limited. Vermont did not join the Union until 1791, and historical records indicate that some slavery-like practices may have persisted unofficially. Nevertheless, the 1777 constitution established an early legal precedent for anti-slavery sentiment, showing how legal documents could be used to challenge institutional oppression. The language also hinted at the contradictions between American ideals of liberty and the reality of enslavement.Several major U.S. medical organizations filed a lawsuit on July 7 against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the HHS, challenging recent changes to federal COVID-19 vaccine policy. The plaintiffs—including the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American College of Physicians—are seeking to overturn Kennedy's directive removing COVID-19 vaccines from the CDC's immunization schedules for children and pregnant women. They argue that the move poses an immediate threat to public health and undermines evidence-based medical policy.The complaint accuses Kennedy of dismantling the federally established vaccine framework that has historically saved millions of lives. Kennedy, a longtime vaccine skeptic, took control of HHS earlier this year and has taken steps to reshape vaccine policy. In addition to altering the immunization schedules, he also dismissed all 17 members of the CDC's independent vaccine advisory committee and replaced them with seven individuals, some of whom have publicly opposed vaccination.Medical groups contend that these actions are not grounded in science and place vulnerable populations at significant risk of preventable diseases. HHS has not yet commented on the lawsuit.Medical groups sue HHS, Kennedy over vaccine policy | ReutersThe Biden administration had extended Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Hondurans and Nicaraguans in 2023, citing lingering effects of Hurricane Mitch, political instability, and economic hardship. But on July 7, the Department of Homeland Security under President Donald Trump announced it will end those protections effective September 6, 2025, impacting roughly 72,000 Hondurans and 4,000 Nicaraguans. TPS offers deportation relief and work permits to migrants from countries experiencing crisis, but Trump officials argue the program has been overused.Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said both countries have recovered significantly, referencing tourism, real estate, and energy developments. Critics, including Democrats and migrant advocates, say ending TPS will uproot people who have legally lived and worked in the U.S. for decades and may force them to return to dangerous or unstable conditions. The Honduran deputy foreign minister acknowledged the decision wasn't country-specific, but part of a broader rollback of TPS protections.Trump's administration has already targeted TPS designations for migrants from Venezuela, Haiti, Afghanistan, and Cameroon. Legal battles continue over the policy's rollback: while the Supreme Court recently upheld ending TPS for Venezuelans, a federal judge blocked the termination for Haitians just last week.Trump to end deportation protections for thousands of Hondurans and Nicaraguans | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week focuses on Maryland's new 3% digital services tax, which took effect on July 1. I argue that while the state's goal of modernizing its tax base is understandable, the execution creates more problems than it solves. Rather than taxing consumption—the standard, more efficient route—Maryland is taxing business inputs like data hosting and web services. This approach violates basic tax principles, potentially stifling investment and driving up operational costs for firms doing business in the state.The administrative burden is uniquely complex. Vendors must determine how much of each service is used in Maryland, secure pre-approval for calculation methods, and issue separate certificates per transaction. No other state requires this, which leaves businesses with a costly choice: build a Maryland-specific tax compliance system, risk penalties, or exit the market entirely. The true burden, then, is not just the 3% rate, but the compliance infrastructure that must be created from scratch.Ultimately, the tax may hurt the very businesses Maryland is counting on for economic growth. Consumers may face higher prices, companies may route around the state, and the tax may collapse under its own administrative weight. I argue that the smarter path forward lies in multistate coordination, where shared definitions and harmonized rules could make enforcement more efficient and less distortionary. Without collaboration, Maryland risks substituting short-term revenue for long-term competitiveness. This is a public episode.

Automating Food Safety with NormexIn this episode, we sit down with Tanguy Etoga, founder and CEO of Normex, to dive into the often overlooked but critically important world of food safety management.Tanguy shares his fascinating journey from a childhood in Cameroon—where a conversation with his father about preserving mangoes year-round sparked his passion—to becoming a food safety consultant and tech entrepreneur revolutionizing how small and medium food businesses handle compliance.What We Discovered:Why our industry is traditionally slow to adopt new technology (spoiler: we're too busy making food!)How AI and IoT sensors are transforming tedious paperwork into streamlined digital processesReal examples of companies saving $60,000+ in six months through automationThe hidden costs of manual food safety processes that most of us don't realize we're payingWhy even small food businesses with just 2 employees need proper food safety systemsHow one ice cream company freed up 3 quality employees to move into productionMy Key Takeaways: From temperature monitoring that used to require hourly manual checks to AI-powered corrective action plans, Tanguy shows us practical applications of technology that actually work—not just buzzword solutions. This isn't about replacing people; it's about eliminating the mundane tasks so our teams can focus on what matters: making great food safely.Whether you're a food processor, manufacturer, restaurant, or anywhere in our supply chain, this conversation offers valuable insights into protecting your business, your customers, and your reputation.

In this profound special edition of Geopolitics with Ghost, General Steven Kwast joins Ghost to expose how Africa's hero system was dismantled and what it will take to restore it. Drawing from his upbringing in Cameroon and deep military and academic experience, Kwast examines the collapse of sovereign leadership in places like Burkina Faso, highlighting how revolutionary leaders like Thomas Sankara were undermined by globalist interests and replaced by foreign-aligned regimes. General Kwast introduces his “Hero System” theory, which argues that a functioning society must inspire its youth to stay, serve, and thrive. He outlines how U.S. military programs, though well-intentioned, often inadvertently train future coup leaders, and how a lack of cultural understanding at the highest levels of American policy leads to failure abroad. The conversation spans technology-based solutions like atmospheric water generation, the role of culture in sustainable leadership, and how tribal traditions hold the keys to rebuilding trust and purpose. With insights into oral history, spiritual leadership, and geopolitical missteps, this episode is a blueprint for how America, and humanity, can help rebuild sovereign civilizations by respecting their unique cultural roots and restoring the path to authentic leadership.

Today, we highlight Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Glorious Lord in the Church around the world. Thank you all for listening. We are looking at the earthly conversations Jesus had, as recorded in the gospels, to see if we are able to glean anything useful for our prayer lives. Our latest segment comes from John chapter 2 and the wedding party at Cana. We find not only is He the God of the impossible, but He can accomplish multiple things through one prayer.The prayer of Mary, "They have no wine." Began a miracle, at least 180 gallons of good wine. Although the miracle was a "quiet one," it accomplished all Mary had prayed, but it set the beginning of the evangelist team God would use to turn the world upside down. "This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him." John 2:11Our So What?When we cast our prayers to the heart of our God, we scarce know how those prayers may be used in the plan of the Almighty. Therefore, we heed then the exhortations of E.M. Bounds and the apostle Paul:"Nothing is well done without prayer for the simple reason that it leaves God out of the account." " Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31Brethren, let's pray for one another.

In this eye-opening episode of Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski is joined by Ann Sussman and Kelsey Bradley from the Human Architecture and Planning Institute (HAPI.org) to explore the fascinating intersection of architecture, biology, and human emotion. Ann and Kelsey reveal how our brains are hardwired to respond to certain visual cues—like faces, fractals, and even the color red—and how this understanding can revolutionize the way we design buildings and cities. From eye-tracking software that predicts where people look first, to how blank facades might make us feel uneasy, this episode unveils the science behind why some spaces feel better than others. Tune in to discover how embracing our biological instincts can lead to more humane, joyful, and walkable environments.More About Ann Sussman and Kelsey BradleyAnn Sussman, RA, an architect, researcher, and teacher is passionate about understanding how buildings impact us. She serves as president of the Human Architecture + Planning Institute, (theHapi.org), a nonprofit devoted to improving the design of the built environment through education and research.
