The richest women in the world – all of whom are billionaires – have been announced.
Wealth-X listed the extremely wealthy women in a Wednesday release.
The website determined the most affluent women by net worth in seven regions – North America, Europe, Pacific, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa – then ranked those women against one another.
Wealth-X found that the richest woman in the world, as well as in North America, is Christy Walton of Walmart, reporting her estimated net worth is $37.9billion.

Mining heiress Gina Reinhart of Australia took the title of most affluent woman in the Pacific, with an estimated net worth of $14.8billion, Wealth-X reported.
For Latin America, it was a three-way tie between Mexican sisters Vanessa Paola Slim Hajj, Maria Soumaya Slim de Romero, and Johanna Slim Ayub, who are thought to possess a net worth of $6.3billion individually, the website found.

VIDEO AND PICTURES: BOWEN UNIVERSITY HOSTEL BURNT

                    A room (precisely Luke Hostel room 47) got burnt in the early hours of Thursday March 27 2015. Most of the room's occupants' luggage were burnt, including books, clothes, boxes and several valuable items. Some people are speculating that the fire was caused by a boiling ring left on by one of the students while others are saying that it was caused by an unplugged iron. Thankfully no lives were lost and nobody was wounded.                     Minutes after the fire was doused, the Dean of Student affairs, MRS. Sangoyomi was seen in the hostel examining the room. The fate of the room's occupants are not yet known but we hope they don't get into much trouble. Come back for updates on this post and more info.PICTURES BELOW

The genetic and scientific view of the EBOLA VIRUS

Virology The EBOV genome is approximately 19 kb in length. It encodes seven structural proteins: nucleoprotein (NP), polymerase cofactor (VP35), (VP40), GP, transcription activator (VP30), VP24, and RNA polymerase (L).[3] Structure[edit] Electron micrographs of EBOV show them to have the characteristic threadlike structure of a filovirus.[4] EBOV VP30 is around 288 amino acids long.[5] The virions are tubular in general form but variable in overall shape and may appear as the classic shepherd's crook or eyebolt, as a U or a 6, or coiled, circular, or branched; laboratory techniques, such as centrifugation, may be the origin of some of these formations.[6] Virions are generally 80 nm in diameter with a lipid bilayer anchoring the glycoprotein which projects 7 to 10 nm long spikes from its surface.[7] They are of variable length, typically around 800 nm, but may be up to 1000 nm long. In the center of the virion is a structure called nucleocapsid, which is formed by the helically wou...
