The Jeff Bezos' rocket off was not quite popular among many of Amazon workers, some of who wished that he never came back but for the rocket to take him all the way to Jupiter or even Mars and for him to stay there forever. Some of them too would have preferred that Jeff Bezos reflected his gratitude for their labor, which paid for his vainglorious trip, through wage increases as mere "thank you" do not their bills pay.
Jeff Bezos gave $100 million each to Van Jones and Jose` Andres for their "courage and civility" but not even a dime in pay raise to the workers who are producing the wealth for him; probably because working for Amazon does not demonstrate "courage and civility". Yet when some of the workers in Alabama demonstrated some "courage and civility" by trying to unionize, the same Jeff Bezos fought it to a stand still. There is something somewhat sketchy about the doling out of this millions of dollars, but definitely a good payday for both lucky fellas.
ICHEOKU says compared to Richard Bronson's Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin was rather cramped and does not have enough clearance for the weightlessness somersault maneuver. The Virgin Galactic plane-like model is of a better design than the circular Blue Origin which sequestrated every person in the same tight space. Anyway, the opportunity which Jeff Bezos provided the awesome 82 year old astronaut Wally Funk to finally make her dream of going to space come true was indeed very commendable. It was good that the team safely launched and safely made it back to earth. Congratulations to all of them, including those who made it possible.

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.
