  1. Senegals Treasury hit by cyber attack?? And they stole data?? The green blood group sounds like a fake name. I have a feeling someone is testing out their capabilities on a small nation before they go after much larger countries. If Senegal is 1 of 6, that means they are gaining momentum and better capabilities in hardware and software.
    God be with the people in the DR Congo with all these Ebola breakouts. Did they find patient zero? Sending prayers to the people of the Congo.
    It is true that Brazil is producing LOTS of coffee beans and it is hitting Ethiopia hard. But coffee prices tripling for locals is weird to me.
    Hoarding coffee hoping prices will rise wont happen just yet unless a blight comes about. So far, with all this wet weather in the Americas because of el nino, one may be on the way.
    So hang in there Ehtiopia. The demand for your coffee beans could be a few months away
