LG Unveils The World’s First 8k Oled TV (photos) - TV/Movies

Knificent.blogspot.com .





While the world is still trying to get adjusted to the 4K TV technology LG has unveiled the world’s first ever 8K OLED TV at the recent IFA 2018 tech show in Berlin where all major tech companies came from all over the world to showcase their latest and best technology. This massive 88 inch television is four times the pixel count of 4K and sixteen times that of standard HDTV. That’s over 33 million pixels at a 7,680 × 4,320 resolution.



The South Korean electronics giant LG need no other competition. It has solidly cemented it’s position as the number one innovator in display technology in the world. Of course LG is not the only company to unveil an 8K TV at IFA 2018,Samsung also unveiled it’s own 8K TV but it’s not OLED technology, Samsung calls it QLED ( Quantum LED ) which in my opinion cannot be matched to the OLED. The 8K OLED TV is no doubt going to be the future of TV technology

But there’s a problem !



The world is still trying to adjust to the 4K TV technology with limited contents, now manufacturers are trying to force 8K TV down our throats. I think the 8K TV will not receive a warm welcome just yet, not when we only have 4K content available through streaming services like Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, Vudu, SONY PS4 Pro and via 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray discs. Where’s the 8K content going to come from? Without 8K content, the 8K TV is just useless and there’s no way to enjoy it. It’s good to know the technology is out there but I don’t think we’re ready for it yet. Hopefully by 2020 we will begin to have 8K contents available in order to match the 8K TV.

Wenger To Replace Mourinho At Manchester United - Sports

Knificent.blogspot.com .
Veteran English sports presenter, Richard Keys, has said that Arsene Wenger would take over from Jose Mourinho who is currently under pressure at Manchester United.

Keys who has worked with BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Sky, Talksport, Al-Jazeera, Fox Sports, ESPN Star Sports, said that Wenger would be a suitable replacement for the Portuguese.

Mourinho 's job at Old Trafford seems shaky despite yesterday’s win over Burnley.

And Keys suggested the Wenger, who left Arsenal after 22 years at the end of last season, would be a good option.

“I’ll match and raise you Arsene Wenger,” he told beIN Sports.

“Let me put a bit of meat on the bone. Managed big players all of his life. Knows plenty about the English Premier League.

“He has won everything there is to win apart from the Champions League. He certainly can handle big players. Managed a big football club and he’s available.”

Kembo Mohadi: My Wife, Tambudzani Mohadi Torments Me And I'm Scared - Foreign Affairs -

Knificent.blogspot.com .
A Zimbabwean VP, Kembo Campbell Mohadi, has cried out for help over the torture he receives from his wife, Tambudzani Bhugadi Mohadi.

The VP accused his estranged wife of sending threatening messages to him after he instituted divorce proceedings in 2017, reports iHarare.

Mohadi approached a civil court in Harare seeking a protection order against her. He told the court, “I am a law-abiding citizen and given the increasing incidences of people who are killing their spouses for passion, I pray that this honourable court protects me against the threatened violence.”

“I have approached this honourable court seeking a protection order against the respondent in terms of the Domestic Violence Act, in that the respondent is a very abusive person and/or a person of a violent disposition such that I am now living in fear of my life.

The VP claims that his estranged wife started behaving violently towards him after she was served a copy of the divorce summons.

“The respondent has escalated her violent tendencies against my person [Mohadi] and even calling me on my mobile phone while insulting me and threatening to tarnish my image, which has the potential to damage my political endeavours in view of my political office and as a member of the government,” Mohadi said in his founding affidavit filed under case number DV1797/18 in a matter set to be heard on Friday.

His estranged wife is said to have started selling off their matrimonial property before the finalisation of the divorce matter in order to defeat the ends of justice.

Mohadi also claimed that his wife has gone to the extent of turning their four children against him.

6 Reasons Why Your Car Smells - Car Talk -

Knificent.blogspot.com .


Except you’re the extremely dirty type, nobody normal likes foul odour. Almost everybody (if not all) would love to keep the good smell in their car.

When you start perceiving foul odour from your car, it’s an indication that something is wrong somewhere. There are some things that can alter the good smell in your car and make it go bad to foul odour.


6 Reasons Why Your Car Smells

1. Burnt clutch or brake materials:
You will easily notice the smell when you’re driving with your windows down. A burnt clutch and brake pads that got too hot will give out the same ‘burning rubber’ smell.

2. Water getting inside the car:
When water or fluid gets into the car where it’s not meant to, be rest assured your car will smell. This is much pronounced after rain. Leaky doors, windows seals, can give water free passage into the car. When water makes it to the seats and carpets, it gives birth to smell. 

3. Bad food and spilt drink
The smell can also be a result of spilt drinks or decomposed food for those that eat or drink inside their cars. 

4. Oil leaks:
You’ll perceive a burning smell whenever oil drip and drop on any hot part of the exhaust system.

5. Bad catalytic converter:
When things are not right as it should with your catalytic converter, you’ll end up perceiving smell a rotten egg.

6. Fuel leaks:
When there is leaky fuel lines, stuck injector, bad fuel pressure regulator, they can lead to fuel being dumped on your engine region.

What else makes your car smell? Tell us in the comment section even if it's that person that entered your car with smelly shoes. 

FIFA Releases 3-Man Shortlist For Best Player, Lionel Messi Excluded - Sports

Knificent.blogspot.com


.According to Spanish outlet Diario Sport, Lionel Messi has been left off the podium for FIFA's The Best. Incomprehensibly, the Barcelona forward is not in the final three for the world football governing body's prestigious annual prize.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Luka Modric and Antoine Griezmann are the three finalists.

They top a shortlist of 10, which did include Messi, along with De Bruyne, Varane, Salah, Hazard, Kane and Mbappe. The official shortlist will be announced by FIFA on Monday.

Last Thursday, at the Champions League draw, Modric was named as the best player in Europe for last season. Real Madrid also scooped the positional prizes at the event: Keylor Navas (goalkeeper), Sergio Ramos (defender), Modric (midfielder) and Ronaldo (forward), now at Juventus but chosen for his performances with Los Blancos.

Messi has finished second in the two editions of The Best to date, always behind Cristiano. Neymar was third in 2016 and Griezmann in 2017.

The winner will be named on September 24 at a gala in London. The prizes are voted for by players, coaches journalists and fans through the Internet.

Knificent.blogspot.com .
Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has revealed the new role for Victor Moses. The Chelsea player who retired from the Super Eagle's last 2 weeks, has featured 11 minutes for the Blues in the current league season.

It will be recalled that the former Nigeria international played in the wing-back role for Chelsea under Antonio Conte era. The Nigerian played a crucial role in the Antonio Conte's league surge of 2017 and FA Cup triumph of 2018.

Maurizio Sarri who deploys a tactical approach of 4-3-3 has reportedly decided on fielding the former Wigan athletic attacker, in the right wing of attack. Sarri however has stated that the Moses must improve if he is to get his chance at Chelsea considering the huge competition the Nigerian faces at the club.

This would mean that the Nigerian will have to compete for spot with Blues playmaker Eden Hazard, Brazilian William and former Barcelona attacker Pedro.
Chelsea meanwhile continues to justify their credential for the Premier League with a 4 consecutive victories.

The Blues have edged Brighton, Arsenal, Newcastle and Bournemouth in their quest for the Premier League and will stay in their position till after the international break.

Two Lesbians Caned In Public In Malaysia For Engaging In Sex - Crime -

Knificent.blogspot.com .
Two lesbians caned in public for engaging in lesbian sex in a car were in Malaysia, have also been finned by a court on Monday.

The lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community is routinely persecuted in Muslim-majority Malaysia, where they are seen as a threat to conservative values.

The women, aged 32 and 22, had pleaded guilty in August to attempting lesbian sex, forbidden under Islamic law.

They were sentenced to a fine and six lashings of the cane.

The sentence was carried out in front of about 100 people at the Sharia High Court in Terengganu, a conservative state ruled by the Islamist opposition party Pan-Malaysian Islamist Party, according to a report by English-language daily the New Straits Times.

It was the first conviction for same-sex relations and the first time a caning had been carried out in public in the state, Satiful Mamat, a member of the Terengganu state executive council told Reuters.

“Sharia criminal procedure allows the court to determine where the sentence will be carried out and requires that it must be witnessed by a number of other Muslims,” said Satiful, who attended the hearing.

Satiful said the punishment was “not intended to torture or injure”.

“The reason it is carried out in public is for it to serve as a lesson to society,” he said.

Malaysia has a dual-track legal system, with Islamic criminal and family laws applicable to Muslims running alongside civil laws.

The caning of women is banned under civil law but allowed under Islamic laws in some states.

Amnesty International said the caning marked “an appalling day” for human rights in Malaysia.

“To inflict this brutal punishment on two people for attempting to engage in consensual, same-sex relations is an atrocious setback on the government’s efforts to improve its human rights records,” Rachel Chhoa-Howard, the group’s Malaysia researcher, said.

Malaysian women’s groups, Justice for Sisters and Sisters in Islam called for a review of laws that allowed the caning of women.

“The execution that took place… is a travesty and a grave miscarriage of justice,” the groups said.

The case comes amid concerns around growing intolerance toward the LGBT community in Malaysia in recent weeks.

A transgender woman was beaten up by a group of assailants in Seremban, south of Kuala Lumpur on August 15, in what activists said was part of a growing hostility towards gay and transgender people.
