Sports / Manchester United Board To Be Blamed For United’s Poor Form by holymaster: 5:06pm On Oct 07, 2019

Manchester United Board To Be Blamed For United’s Poor Form
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville has said that United struggles are the result of poor planning by the club’s board and that manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer needs time and money to get the team back on track.

This campaign as been said to be the poorest for the Manchester team in 30 years. The campaign was started with a swooping 4-0 against Chelsea but has flop ever since.

Neville told Sky Sports;

“United are getting the pain they deserve for poor decisions at board level,” “The board (is) responsible for this with poor recruitment, poor selection of managers, going with them and then pulling off them.

“If you change direction as a board every two years, investing 250 million pounds ($308 million) along the way in each manager, you’re going to have big problems.”

“Solskjaer needs… the opportunity to spend the money the others have had to spend. If United recruit well in the next three or four windows, they’ve got the bones of something. If they recruit badly, they’ll end up suffering,” Neville said.

“There’s no quick fix and it has to be done methodically. I hope, because of the poor results, they don’t come off the path they’re on which is to develop a young, progressive team but they do need some quality and experience in there.”

Education / Over 90 Percent Of Schools In Kogi Have No Infrastructures, Poor Laboratories by holymaster: 9:09pm On Oct 06, 2019

Over 90 percent of schools in Kogi have no infrastructures, poor laboratories – ASUSS

Over 90 percent of schools in Kogi State have deficient infrastructures, poor or non-existence laboratories, and libraries with out of date books.

The Kogi State Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Secondary Schools, ASUSS, Comrade Ranti Ojo made this known while speaking at the occasion marking this years World Teacher’s Day in Lokoja, the Kogi state capital.

Comrade Ojo while calling on the state government to declare a state of emergency in secondary education in the state to steer it away from the direction where it is now heading also hinted that, there is shortages of teachers in all schools all over the state.

He told the governor that, the state of schools in the state calls for urgent attention of the government for the sake of the future generation to which the state belonged.

The ASUSS Chairman lamented that instructional materials are no longer known as part of schools’ necessities while sports and extracurricular activities have for long been forgotten as part of schools’ routine.

“We have been making this call year in year out, yet no government has deemed it necessary to heed our calls. We make the call again today believing that this government that has education as one of its thematic area of focus will urgently take steps to do the needful,” he said.

Responding, the Kogi state Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello promised to ensure adequate and enhanced welfare package for teachers in the employment of the state for greater productivity.

The governor who was represented by his Chief of Staff and running mate in the November 16 governorship election in the state, Edward Onoja, said his administration would continue to sustain regular payment of salaries not only to teachers, but to all other categories of workers in the employment of Kogi State.

He said his government has concluded arrangements to employ 3,500 teachers to address shortage of personnel in public schools in the state. Continue Reading

Romance / How To Help A Friend In An Abusive Relationship by holymaster: 8:49pm On Oct 06, 2019

When I was 16, I started dating a sandy-haired boy with a crooked smile and endless charm. Our courtship took place in AIM chat rooms and local bookshops, over milkshakes and stacks of IHOP pancakes; for the first time in my life, I fell in love. The trouble, I soon learned, was that this love came with strings attached: conditions to be met, sexual favors to return (or be taken by force), and plenty of reminders that I was prudish, flat-chested, and full of excuses if ever I tried to say no. As quickly as I had fallen for him, I’d found myself in an abusive relationship, and my brain quickly worked to hide the evidence, repressing certain events and memories for years to come.

As the memories rushed back, though, key details came into focus, and I realized there had been bystanders and witnesses to his abuse. On multiple occasions, friends had heard him berate my intelligence and my body. They’d watched him slide my bathing suit off in public as I strived to squirm free. And they’d never, to my knowledge, said a word in protest.

While I certainly don’t fault a bunch of teenagers for failing to call out behavior I myself didn’t recognize as abusive, I’ve always kind of wished they’d spoken up. That said, there’s no guidebook for how to best show your support to a friend who’s in this situation or how to help them leave, and the last thing you want to do is further isolate or endanger someone you love. With this in mind, POPSUGAR spoke with Anita Chlipala, a licensed marriage and family therapist, to find out what you can do if you’re ever faced with this choice. Here are six simple yet powerful ways to help.

1. Empathize With Them
“One of the reasons people don’t share when they’re in an abusive relationship is that they don’t want their family and friends to have them end the relationship,” Anita explained. “You have to keep in mind that they still love this person.” Start by acknowledging how much your friend cares about their partner, then express your concern about what you’ve seen. “Maybe they don’t seem like their old self, or their playful and positive side seems to be gone,” Anita said. “If you start by sharing how they seem different, they may feel safer to share what is really going on in their relationship.” Instead of immediately encouraging them to end the relationship, listen with empathy and understanding.

2. Keep It Between the Two of You
It’s natural to share your concerns about one friend with another, particularly when it comes to an issue as sensitive and frightening as abuse. But while it may be vindicating to hear that others are also worried, it’s best to address this privately. “What you don’t want is for your friend to isolate themselves and not share anything about their relationship for fear of being ganged up on,” Anita told POPSUGAR. Instead of staging a group intervention, encourage your friend to open up in a smaller setting — one in which they feel comfortable and heard, not intimidated or drowned out.

3. Validate What They’re Feeling
Abusive relationships come in many forms, not all of which include screaming or violence. One of the most common forms of abuse is gaslighting, in which someone is manipulated into questioning what they know to be true — and made to think that they’re in the wrong, instead of their significant other. “When you think of an abusive relationship, you may think of physical violence and obvious indicators, but sometimes the signs are subtle,” Anita said. “I’ve worked with so many people who come to me and ask, ‘Am I crazy?'” The answer, most often, is no, and it’s important that you validate this for your friend. Remind them that they should feel secure in their relationship, and anyone who makes them question their feelings or sanity isn’t providing the care they deserve.

4. Remind Them That Love Shouldn’t Be Fleeting
Even the most dangerous abusers can have moments of tenderness. “That makes it harder to leave because people think, ‘I see their potential,'” Anita explained. “Reinforce that you shouldn’t have random moments of love and respect, but these should be a constant in a healthy relationship.”

5. Offer a Safe Space
Both literally and figuratively, especially where physical abuse is concerned. Create a space in which you can have honest, open conversations with your friend about their relationship, and if and when they are ready to leave their abuser, ensure they physically have a place to stay. “If you really think your friend may be in physical danger, they should not be left alone for a while after the breakup,” Anita told POPSUGAR. “Don’t ask if you can stay with them, insist on it. If their partner has keys to their place, change the locks on the door or get an alarm.”

6. Reinforce That This Is Not Their Fault
“So many people, especially women, blame themselves for the failure of a relationship or how a partner treats them,” Anita explained — a feeling I’ve experienced myself. When you’re in an abusive relationship, it’s all too easy to believe that all of this is happening because you’re simply not enough. Remind your friend, over and over again, that this isn’t their fault and that they’re deserving of unconditional love in all of their relationships, romantic or otherwise. They may not recognize it in the moment, but one day they’ll be grateful for your support and for you fighting to keep them safe.

If you or someone you love is in danger, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799−7233 or review the list of resources available online. Continue Reading...
