cococandy:I get ur point.. But the thing is the HPV has affinity for the female cervix as males do not av cervix.. For a man to be carrying it around means he should av picked it up from an already infected female through sex.. Therefore an uninfected female can pick it up from a promiscuous male partner even if she is not promiscuous herself...The point to note is that the female cervix is the primary reservoir among the human population. |

Earthquake1:Bros the whole idea has to do with promiscuity (sexual intercourse with several women)...the organism responsible for Cervical cancer is the human papilloma virus (HPV) which is easily transfered from one infected female to the the other by a single promiscuous male partner through intercourse with both female.. So the male therefore becomes the career of the virus from the infected n therefore positive female to the negative female after sex...Therefore any promiscuous female makes herself liable to getting infected with the cervical cancer-causing organism. |

That moment when u realize that the French are roosters (ordinary chickens) yet av been able to progress to the semis n our whole eagles who are not ordinary eagles but "Super eagles“ couldn't go beyond the group stage.. Hmmmm there is God |

Anytime an African team has a match to play at night, I reduce my expectation by 30%...My expectation even become lesser when I realize that team is the eagles bearing in mind that they hardly get their vision to fly during the night using the Croatia match as a case study... Besides the Black stars were also not around in the Russian space to provide them with light as they av done sometimes in the past.. African teams n their fear of darkness # condolences to my Nigerian brethren tho 4rm a Ghanaian brethren. |

One tin about science is that earlier scientists lay the foundation for the nxt generation to continue the building... Like, Galileo who was the founding father for the newtonian type of motion, according to Galileo, a body is supposed to be in motion but a force causes it to stop moving and be at rest which was a direct contradiction to the ideas of Aristotle which has it that a body must be at rest (ie its natural state of inertia) but it is due to a force that causes it to be in motion... Newton jux sided with the Galilean reasoning at the expense of the Aristotles' n developed his ideas from there...Other young scientists like Coulombs developed their electrostatic principles from the earlier newtonian reasoning...So is the Pythagoreans such as Cupernicus whose principles were based on the teachings of their teacher, Pythagoras... Einstein n co also had earlier scientists whose reasoning they bought into n a such drove their own thoughts n principles through the roads of such earlier scientists... The question therefore is not who is the greatest, but whose ideas do u side with.??.. 1 Like |

This incidence occurred in northern ghana, a place that has quite carved a niche for itself when it comes to unnecessary students uproar n deviance in behavior... The situation is entirely the opposite in the South where students behave as students.. In fact, due to this, there is a vast contrast in academic excellence between the south n north, with the former showing great excellence..This explains why schools in Ghana especially the south have consistently n enviable topped the WASSCE in the West Africa subregion for ages...The south boost of schools like The Mfantsipims, Achimotas, Wesley Girls, The Holy Child, Adisadel, Prempeh, St. Augustins, The Accra Academys, The Presbyterian Boys, The Arch Bishop Porter Girls, Bishop Hermans, The Pope John's, St. Louis', Opoku Wares, The Yaa Asantewaa Girls, The Aburi Girls, jux to mention a few... Therefore, the behavior of a few students in the North such as that captured in the news is not the reflection of the total situation in our Senior high schools schools especially in the South. |

Nice piece.. Another drug that people are abusing especially athletes n among competitors of school sporting events yet hasn't come to the public notice is furosemide (laxis), an osmotic diuretic...This drug triggers excessive urination in order to lose weight making them lighter so as to meet the weight requirement for a specific sport event...Abusers of such drug usually develop hypovolemic shock owing to excessive dehydration n their eventual death. |

Austin234:Tinned tomato like any other processed food one way or the other rids off a nutrient or another...The pasteurization or sterilization process they are subjected to alone is enough to rid off the water soluble vitamins such as the B-vitamins through evaporation among others, that explains why u re advised not to overcook ur foods..However, through fortification, the nutrients may be reintroduced into the food..so it depends. |

Nice piece.. Besides, tomato juice itself is a natural buffer; that is to say it balances the bodies pH ensuring that it is always within the homeostatic setpoints necessary for the optimal functioning of the body... Again, it is due to this property of tomato juice that makes it ideal for use in babies for the treatment of oral thrush (candidiasis of the mouth or in layman's language, whitening of the tongue in infants n babies). 1 Like |

Nancydearie:Yeah.. However, it may also be due to a secondary reaction to a hyper secretion of the hypothalamic hormone- thyrotropin- releasing hormone or hyper secretion of the pituitary hormone thyrotropin probably due to a tumor of the pituitary gland n the hypothalamus. Chronic intake of certain drugs high or low in Iodine such as lithium n contrast agents used during x-ray studies have also been implicated to cause goitre. 2 Likes |

One thing that I have come to learn growing up is that, one shouldn't be in a haste to comment on issues that he or she is not privy to.. Since day one the NDC, that is the party in opposition has been trying unsuccessfully to infect the minds of Ghanaians with lies to see the incumbent government with the same spectacle we saw the past government with for how corrupt they were leading to their exit from power, but thanks to education, most of us are above this their propaganda.. Ghanaians saw the incompetence of the erstwhile Mahama government n persistently spoke against them but they refused to listen hence were voted out of power ; from receiving bribes in the form of vehicles from individuals such kanazoase of Burkina Faso jux to give them contracts to construct roads, I remember vividly what Mahama said on the day he went to unveil the road on completion, According to him, that road was unprecedented in Ghana n had never been seen before, guess what, the "unseen before road" started developing potholes only in matter of six months...Again, Mahama's wife was in charge of the sharing of state vehicles to the likes of John Dumelo n his cohorts to do propaganda for Mahama n the NDC party but thanks to God they still lost woefully afterall that...Also, Mahama brought in two very popular Guantanamo Bay detainees (Gitmo 2) without first consulting the Ghanaian parliament as the constitution demanded jux for a peanut of 300,000 dollars of which no Ghanaian has knowledge about the whereabout of such money...Before the incept of Mahama n his government, nursing n teachers were given a monthly allowance of about GH400 cedis to make it possible for them to go through school as most of such students were individuals from deprived backgrounds n families, Mahama n his people came to cancel that agreement as soon as they came to power.. My fellow Nigerians, guess what, less than a year into Akuffo Addo's government, this allowance has been restored, also, students at senior high school level are enjoying free education, a policy the Mahama-led NDC persistently said it is not possible.. Lest I forget, in 2015, Mahama n his NDC went into a military deal with USA for them to establish a base in Ghana in order to help the USA fight Boko Haram in Nigeria from Ghana, n this deal was also not sent for parliamentary approval as demanded by the constitution all because of a little peanut from the Americans, jux last week u heard some hypocrites demonstrating against this USA-Ghana military deal, A deal they started in 2015,having skipped parliamentary scrutiny of the deal prior to its approval, again no Ghanaian was aware until they were voted out of power, what hypocrisy!!!.. All that General Mosquito n his cohorts are doing is jux to smear Akuffo Addo n his government in dust to make them appear unpalatable to Ghanaians but It won't wash. Most of us re very descerning. |

So Dumelo has suddenly become a patriot who has his nation at heart.. wonders shall never end.. After you n ur cohorts illegally accepted government vehicles from the erstwhile Mahama's administration with the sole aim to campaign for his reelection but lost woefully n was busted afterwards trying to respray it to avoid suspicion but all thanks to the chassis number, by the task force established to retrieve all stolen government vehicles of the then Mahama's administration by the current government, u still av the guts to talk simply because u were not locked behind bars...I still remember vividly how dis guy in a state of diaphoresis tried unsuccessfully to find words to purge himself...The case is not dead yet, very soon u ll be called to face the special prosecutor n the rigors of the law. 1 Like |

Why do we Africans take so much delight in death of others... First the ritual killers taking lives with no mercy and now a pastor praying for the death of the killers...No matter the degree of pain ur enemy causes you, never wish him dead but instead intercede on his behalf so that he gets a change of mind so together we can make heaven. |

Yeshua (Jesus if u wish to call him so) knew before hand that some wolves in sheep clothings will rise to deceive his people into accepting certain falsehoods such as Chist-mas (Krishna-mass) among others.. Due to this, He instituted his own way through which his "devout" followers should commemorate him for the totality of his existence (from birth to death); 1 Corinthians11:24, And when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me".. The million dollar question is, how many Christians do partake in this ![]() |

U re very right... the Bible as it is, is Said to be in two testaments;the old n the new, with the coming of yeshua (the man u call christ) certain portions of the old testament just existed for the purposes of reference, rebuke, among others.. That explains why animal sacrifice was a practice for sanctity n purification in the old testament yet is not applicable in this age... Mode of worship n communication is even better explained by considering what is termed as "Dispensations of the Bible" ;it all began with Yaweh speaking directly to our fathers n the vice-versa, thus Adam n Abraham, this was the Patriarchal age...With time Yaweh saw that the population of the earth was expanding n hence could not move from one household to the other just to speak to one father to the next n hence selected a mouthpiece, that's is a single prophet who will convey n relay what He instructs to the fathers, hence starting with Moses, the Mosical age or the era of the prophets began.... Again it got to a time that Yaweh saw that he no longer wanted His message going thru a 2nd party b4 it gets to His children hence the Christian age began where Yaweh speaks directly n individually to his children n the children to him without having to pass through any medium... Hence the era of the prophets is ended as well as any images or emissaries with the coming of Yeshua (u may call him christ, his pseudo name). Prophecy n prophets of the new testament represent teaching n teachers respectively which is entirely different in the meaning given to them in the old testament. |

It's sad to see individual christians in their ignorance bow to white paintings of Michelangelo,Leonardo da Vinci n their like...If one is to delve into the life of any of these artists, he ll come to de realization that at any point in time such men were either atheists, alchemists or even astronomers; belief it or not these category of people were at loggerheads with anything biblical n sacred... One is taught that Christianity it's not about color yet they refuse to take these false white images out of their books.. Deceiving the man 4rm his infancy who knows not into perpetual submission. |

Blackfyre:Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental disorder where by a person responds to inner urges and commands in order to undo stress n fear. The condition consists of two separate parts:Obsession and compulsion; Obsession has to do with inner urges n commands to carry out a specific task to overcome a stress n fears eg; one may hear a command to go n wash his or hands severally on shaking someone's hand to avoid a supposed feeling of getting hands contaminated with microbes, again a person may have the urge to sweep his or her room several times with the notion that his room might be dirty which may actually be false, lastly, one may have the inner urge to check on a door he may av locked initially several times to be sure that it is truly locked. Compulsion on the other hand has to do with responding by acting on the false urges and commands one is given under obsession to undo stress and fear. Therefore considering the examples given under obsession for instance, if a person responds to the command to go n wash his hands n responds to the command by getting his hand washed several times to avoid the supposed microbes from causing infection, then the person is now in the state of compulsion. Also, if he or she responds to the urge to sweep his room and n actually carries out the command by sweeping his or her room on several occasions then he or she is exhibiting compulsion among others. This command - and- respond thing becomes a ritualistic behavior or vicious cycle part of his or her routine with time...n this is OCD. 2 Likes |

Sexytemi:n u think that's not bad either... if u care to noe then let me enlighten u on de issue u've raised... Excessive intake of air, medically termed Hyperoxia can be detrimental to health... what happens is dat ur body requires a certain balance between the oxygen gas u inhale n the carbon dioxide gas already in ur system to ensure that the blood balances its pH (degree of acidity or alkalinity) to ensure homeostasis necessary for optimal function of the body n dis balance is actually monitored by the spO2( that is saturated pressure of oxygen,at its peak, the RBCs can no longer take in any other O2 gas inhaled) as well as paO2 n paCO2, where pa means partial pressure... Hyperoxia therefore predisposes one to hyperoxemia (increased blood oxygen) which leads to alkalosis (increased pH) with signs and symptoms such as chest pain, dyspnoea, and central nervous system toxicity (seizures, confusions, dizziness) n in extreme cases death... so u see evry tin is gud but underuse or overuse will bring u consequences, it is therefore necessary to stick to the normal...The tin is, somtin must kill a man but dat tin shouldn't be somtin u noe n could av avoided. |

Gallstones, medically termed cholelithiasis or biliary calculi refers to collection of crystallized components of bile (produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder for the emulsification of fat) within the gallbladder. There are two types: 1. Cholesterol stones: Cholesterol is a normal constituent of bile. This cholesterol (fat) requires to be broken down by another constituent known as lecithin or bile acid so it can be excreted through faeces n little amount through urine. If the bile acid seems to be less, the cholesterol tends to build-up forming aggregates of cholesterol n eventually solidifying leading to gallstones. 2. Pigment stones: This is the 2nd type of gallstones. Also in the bile is what is known as bilirubin which is obtained from the haemolysis (breakdown of red blood cells (RBCs). When there is excessive break-down of RBCs or pre-mature break-down, the over-all bilirubin concentration in the bile tends to elevate excessively with their accumulation forming gallstones with time. -Other possible causes may include obstructive conditions of the bile ducts as well as conditions that predispose one to pre-mature RBC haemolysis. -signs n symptoms may include severe abdominal pains, tenderness, clay-colored stool, pale urine, jaundice n steatorrhoea (stool surrounded by fat, among others). -To control gallstones formation, reduce intake of cholesterol, individuals with conditions that predispose them to pre-mature RBCs haemolysis such as sickle cell, polycythemia n even severe malaria should be managed appropriately. Also, obese individuals should be encouraged to reduce weight through exercise n dieting. 1 Like |

Effects of masturbation: Masturbation, like the rains has its merits n of course demerits also...Dis article is written purely on the basis of scientific ideations n as such those with strong religious principles like myself can hold on with such principles temporarily n scale through the write-ups. Let's begin with the pros: Masturbation helps to; i. Relieve stress n calms the body by decreasing the body's secretion of the stress hormone, cortisol. ii. It induces sleep by stimulating the release of the hormones melatonin n serotonin. iii. In breastfeeding mothers, it promotes the production n release of breast milk from the mammary gland by helping with the secretion of prolactin n oxytocin respectively. iv. Provides sexual satisfaction in general to those who engage in it. v. It may protect against prostitis n prostate cancers-not absolute. Now the cons (mostly in excessive masturbation, however applicable to normal masturbation too) ; i. It leads to excessive loss of energy (calories). Sperms in semen ejaculated during each round of masturbation is a pack of mitochondria which is a house of the bodies energy. ii. may lead to premature ejaculation in men during normal sex due to quick stimulation of penal nerves secondary to the masturbation. iii. Also, it may lead to quick orgasm in females due to quick stimulation of nerves of the clitoris during normal sex iv. may lead to erectile dysfunction during normal sex due to gradual damage to penial blood vessels secondary to masturbation. v. It may lead to insomnia (sleeplessness) due to imbalance of melatonin with time. vi. it can cause alopecia (baldness or hair loss in lay man's language) due to clogging of hair follicles by a derivative of testosterone known as dihydrotestosterone . vii. It may lead to miscarriage in the pregnant women due to the secretion of oxytocin n other hormones during orgasm. viii. It leads to the secretion of dopamine which in excess can predispose one to mental conditions. There may be many pros n cons of masturbation but the above are the few that come to memory. Now we' re at liberty to invite our morals n piety to play. 1 Like |

Ladies changing pants periodically is not a bad idea to control infections neither is periodic washing of the vagina....However, it is even important to av in mind what may actually trigger vaginal infections...The female vagina has an acidic pH (usually ranges b/n 3.8-4.5) which is essential for: 1.optimum function of the candida albicans (vaginal yeast) responsible for fighting other infectious agents that find their way into the vagina. 11. the control of de candida albicans themselves to limit their numbers by inhibiting their excessive growth. A change in the vaginal pH therefore causes the vaginal yeast with an initial protective function to now become opportunistic causing infections instead as well as causing the external infectious agents to multiply n cause infections. To prevent this, avoid excessive washing of the vagina which tends to reduce the acidity of the place increasing the pH, avoid douching n insertion of sex objects into the vagina, n avoid using medicated soaps which usually av acidic or alkaline additives, change underwear periodically, avoid sexual promiscuity n above all report any abnormalities noted for medical attention. |
