Is "Thriller" the best Halloween song? Billboard says... not even close! 😱

Michael Jackson’s classic only ranked #22 on the list of the biggest Halloween songs of all time. The top spot belongs to a much older, spookier classic: "Monster Mash" by Bobby "Boris" Pickett and The Crypt-Kickers.

The song has been crowned the biggest Halloween track of all time, a spooky classic since 1962!

Pray for Jamaica! 🇯🇲 Hurricane Melissa made landfall as a powerful Category 5 storm, leaving widespread destruction across the island. Homes, roads, and farmlands were washed away as heavy floods and landslides covered towns in water.

Prime Minister Andrew Holness declared Jamaica a disaster zone, as thousands seek refuge and emergency teams race to restore power, deliver aid, and save lives.

The world stands with Jamaica as the island faces one of the strongest storms in its history.

Over the years, Wangari and thousands of women planted more than 50 million trees. Each seed became a job, and each act of planting became a protest against systems that silenced women.

That is the power of hands-on education..., it restores dignity. Africa needs planters of skills and planters of futures.

At 83, Alassane Ouattara has secured a fourth term as President of Ivory Coast with 89.77% of the national vote. First elected in 2010, his 15-year leadership has shaped the nation through steady economic growth and global recognition.

The recent election saw a low turnout and a divided opposition, yet it ended in peace as former rivals Jean-Louis Billon and Simone Gbagbo gracefully conceded. The calm transition marks a new chapter for the country, one rooted in stability and renewal.

Across West Africa, Ouattara’s win stands as a reminder of the region’s evolving leadership and the continued pursuit of unity and progress. 🇨🇮✨
