While many reports said Joan was “in stable condition”, today it has emerged that she has been placed in a medically induced coma.
Now CNN reveals that on Wednesday, a day before the cardiac arrest, the 81 year old comedienne had joked about death.
She had performed at Laurie Beechman Theater and a source, who was in the audience for the show, said Joan joked about death, teasing:
‘You know I’m 81 years old, and I could drop dead at any moment and you would be so lucky because you will have a story to tell your friends for the rest of your life.

It Makes No Sense! Boy's Hilarously Smart Reaction To His Mom's Pregnancy Goes Viral
A little boy was not so happy when his mom told him she was expecting another child. While his baby sister sucked away at her pacifier, the boy ranted about the pregnancy announcement being "exasperating", more children being "too much!" and how it makes no sense to him.
Out of the mouths of babes, eh? LOL...
You just have to watch this. Who else has seen a boy this smart mouthed?
#YesWeTan: Obama Wears Tan Suit To Press Conference, Sparks Twitter Craze
President Obama was making serious comments yesterday about the threat that the Islamic State terrorist group poses, but social media, and especially Twitter was more obsessed with his tan suit.
Obama has worn that suit before, once on a visit to church on Easter Sunday, but his typical work-a-day suits are more dark-colored. I guess it didn't also help that after his 2-week vacation, the president is looking more tan than usual.
The explosion of tweets about Obama's tan suit seemed very contrary to the usual way people respond to male politicians or public figures in general. Usually, it is women that face this kind of commentary, the most recent case in point being Hillary Clinton when she ran for president, and even as Secretary of State.
Funny enough, the suit now has its own parody account with the twitter handle @BarackTanSuit.
The White House response: "He loves that suit." Yes, we do too.
See Obama wearing that suit with swagger at last year's Easter Service, and some of the Twitter commentary.
Resident Wants Ebola Index Case In Port Harcourt To Be Named And Hotel Quarantined
We have discussed before whether Ebola infected or suspected cases should be named, and most say for legal and ethical reasons, it may be best not to. I think I agree. Before I continue, let us know this.
FACT! Ebola does not kill all in contact with infected persons. So far, the kill rate is 50% which is still not good, but let's not spread panic.
I don't think it's necessary to name the ECOWAS staff who is the index case of Ebola in Port Harcourt, having been in contact with Patrick Sawyer, the Nigerian index case. I hear he/she is now Ebola free, he was treated and survived, unfortunately, the doctor who treated him contracted the disease and died.
Also, reputable news sources say the ECOWAS staff is being monitored in Lagos, if so, there is no need to release his name to PH residents.
But I agree that the hotel should be closed and cleaned up.
To all residents of PH, please do stay safe. Reduce your contact with crowds and strangers, wash your hands regularly and report anyone who you know is sick.
Below is an excerpt from the resident's mail to Ladun Liadi that spurred this post, as well as the full text of a TV broadcast by Rotimi Amaehi, the governor of Rivers State.

WATCH - The Terrible Conditions In Which Nigerian Immigrants Seek Asylum in South Africa
According to a South African immigration officer, about 1000 Nigerians besiege their office on a daily basis seeking asylum. Those who manage to get over there on temporary or fake papers never want to return despite the treatment from other South Africans and their government.
Why do Nigerians put themselves through this? I guess I shouldn't be asking this question. For millions of Nigerians, the country has failed them.
SaharaTV's crew went behind the scenes in South Africa to cover the plight of Nigerian immigrants seeking asylum under harsh conditions in Pretoria, South Africa.

Many people believe the Kardashian-Jenner name is enough to open doors and opportunities for those who bear it, or those related to them. Rob Kardashian's former girlfriend spoke about it last month, and now, Kendall Jenner, the 18 year old model half-sister of Kim Kardashian has dropped her last name, also saying it is a drag on her career.
Now to be known simply by her first name, "Kendall", the upcoming model reflected this on her official modeling portfolio. Kendall had always talked about her last name not helping her get jobs and how being associated with the Kardashians made people not believe in her'.
She told Teen Vogue;
People didn’t want to take a chance on me, I think because I was sort of known. They were a little bit on the fence about it. Some people might think that what I’ve done before made it easier for me to get jobs, but it was actually a disadvantage. I had to work even harder.

Rev. Anita Oyakhilome Files For Divorce in London Court, Citing Adultery by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome is the general overseer of Christ Embassy Church, along with his wife, Rev. Anita Oyakhilome. Pastor Chris is mostly based out of Nigeria and South Africa while his wife operates from the UK and Europe. This living apart has led to speculations of separation over the years. Pastor Chris even came out last June to state they were OK. [Read here]
However, according to The Cable, the dissolution of the marriage has now been filed by Rev. Anita.
The wife is seeking divorce on the grounds of “unreasonable behaviour” and “adultery”. She outlined several allegations against the pastor which cannot publish for legal reasons. The divorce case, with Suit No FD14D01650, was filed on April 9, 2014 at Divorce Section A, Central Family Court, First Avenue House, High Holborn, London, UK, on Anita’s behalf by Attwaters Jameson Hill Solicitors, a full-service law firm with expertise in commercial law and a strong consumer focus in family, wills and estate, personal injury law and medical negligence.
Efforts to reconcile the popular couple, whose church is one of the biggest denominations in Nigeria and has branches all over world, have failed. They have two teenage daughters, Sharon and Charlyn."
Calling Single Guys - Brazilian Village With 600 Beautiful Single Women Needs Husbands!
Noiva do Cordeiro, a small town in Brazil is made up almost entirely of young women - 600 of them aged between 20 and 35. But while the residents of the village would have it no other way, it has left them with the problem of finding eligible men for dating and marriage.
Nelma Fernandes, 23, admits it's impossible for the girls to find a would-be spouse. She said:
"Here, the only men we single girls meet are either married or related to us, everyone is a cousin. I haven't kissed a man for a long time.
"We all dream of falling in love and getting married. But we like living here and don't want to have to leave the town to find a husband.
"We'd like to get to know men who would leave their own lives and come to be a part of ours. But first they need to agree to do what we say and live according to our rules."
There are several pictures of the pretty ladies on the FB Page of the little agricultural community, and proposals are already beginning to pour in from men all over the world, both single and married... LOL...

Ne-Yo Says He Apologized to Ex-Fiancee For Making Her Tie Her Tubes After 2 Babies
Ne-Yo's ex-fiancee and the mother of their two children, Monyetta Shaw, had on the last episode of Atlanta Exes, revealed that she agreed to have her tubes tied at Ne-Yo’s request. Neyo had announced the couple's break up via Instagram in July last year, sharing a picture with a caption that read;
“Though fate had decided to split our romantic paths, know that I will ALWAYS love you. Forever your partner. Forever your friend. Forever my miracle. I’ll always be there. ALWAYS.@incognemo Forever my miracle.”

Question - Would you tie your tubes on the request of a boyfriend or father of your kids, if you were young and unmarried?
Australian Negotiator Names Ali Modu Sheriff And Ihejirika As Boko Haram Sponsors
63-year-old Australian expert, Dr. Stephen Davis, a negotiator in the Chibok kidnappings, has named Former Borno Governor Ali Modu Sheriff and immediate chief of army staff Lt-Gen Ihejirika (sacked January 2014) as Boko Haram sponsors on ARISE NEWS [Watch].
Davis, who had worked as an adviser for Olusegun Obasanjo and Shehu Yar’Adua in the past, spent 4 intense months in the North-East trying to negotiate the release of the more than 200 school girls kidnapped by Boko Haram on April 14, but without success.
Dr Davis has just returned to Australia with rare footage of the intense fighting in the region, and lots of insider opinion. In a recent interview with Radio Australia, he explained that the main aim for the Nigerian authorities was now to block Boko Haram funding and find its sponsors, alleging that some banks and politicians are among them.
Davis said that many of the insurgency sponsors were in the opposition and this will make it difficult, should the President try to prosecute them.
