Romance / Re: Which Number Is Best Arrangement? by pomsky: 7:56pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
HerexG: I'm a realist and not blinded by the hypocrisy surrounding the religious folks, as for me 4 is perfect
Why No 4 ?
First as humans we need to get attracted to an opposite sex unlike the animals who just go for the available, getting attracted to an opposite sex is the bedrock of love. Then after attraction, love would set in but for the love to be sealed, sex would have to come in. At this point the couple now see themselves as one, knowing fully well both partners can satisfy each other all the way not holding back a thing. After Love, sex, marriage can then come.
As for me, a relationship without sex is a big No, it is just like planning to live your life forever with a stranger
......so it's only sex dat makes one not a stranger? I guess then dat prostitutes would make d best friends. Maybe also, sleeping with ur mama and sister will also break the barrier of them being strangers to you. |

Education / Re: 10 Year Old Nigerian Math Genius, Esther Okade Plans To Build A Bank By Age 15 by pomsky: 3:20pm On Jun 22, 2015 |
Harbdulrasaq: The 10 year old Nigerian Math Genius, Esther Okade has enrolled in Open University, UK. Esther who is a British-Nigerian hails from Walsall and enjoys the normal things every 10 year old does: dressing up, playing with dolls, and going out”.
The only difference is that instead of dealing with simple 2×2 problems, the young star is interested in extreme algebra and calculus.
Speaking on her current class level, Esther says;
“It’s so interesting. It has the type of maths I love. Its real maths – theories, complex numbers, all that type of stuff. It was super easy. My mum taught me in a nice way”.
Speaking on future endeavors, she says;
“I want to finish the course in two years. Then I’m going to do my PhD in financial maths when I’m 13. I want to have my own bank by the time I’m 15 because I like numbers and I like people and banking is a great way to help people”.
I’m sure you’re wondering how the parents feel about the rapid growth of their daughter, well Esther says;
“I actually wanted to start when I was seven. But my mum was like, “you’re too young, calm down.”
However, after three years of begging, her mother, Efe, finally agreed to allow her. It is so heart warming to see our younger generation growing up to be so smart and independent.

Travel / Re: Free Things On Planes You Didn't Know You Could Get by pomsky: 7:53am On Jun 22, 2015 |
packaging: From shrinking seats to ever-dwindling in-flight amenities, the airline industry really earns its tightfisted reputation. But if you know what to ask for, you'll find that in-flight offerings are not quite as stingy as they seem. We asked author and former flight attendant Beth Blair for her tips on the free extras and services only available to those who know to ask.
So next time you're hit with a headache onboard or have a thirst that's going to take more than a glorified Dixie cup of soda to quench, know you can ask for—and most likely receive—a little onboard assistance.
Sanitizing Wipes The stream of passengers passing through planes each day turns tray tables, armrests, and entertainment-system buttons into germ factories. If you'd like to clean your area before settling in, ask a flight attendant for a few sanitizing wipes; they often have them on hand, though it's not something most passengers know they can ask for.
The Whole Can When you factor in the pile of ice that flight attendants load into those little plastic airline cups, you'll find you're not getting much liquid on each pass of the beverage cart. If you've got a thirst that's going to take more than a few tablespoons of soda to quench, consider politely asking your flight attendant for the whole can. Blair says that most of the time, they're happy to oblige. And if they can't—for instance, because the plane is low on cans or isn't getting restocked in the next city—flight attendants will still usually offer to simply come by again to refill your cup.
Wing Pins for Kids Most airlines have cut free food and snacks for adults and kids, but many still offer little fliers wing pins to commemorate their flight. According to Blair, "The pilots usually don't have them though; it's the flight attendants who have them stashed somewhere in the cabin." Can you ask for a pin even if you don't have kids in tow? We don't know, but if you've tried, leave a comment below letting us know how it went!
Basic Medicines and Bandages Whether it's for a headache from takeoff or lingering airport heartburn, many flights are stocked with basic medications such as painkillers and antacids. Blair says that, most of the time, flight attendants also have bandages on hand for minor cuts and that "if you're hurt, flight attendants are experts at making ice packs for injuries (either out of plastic bags or sick sacks)." Knowing this makes us wish flight attendants got merit badges.
Editor's Note: Some airlines may not allow their flight attendants to dispense over-the-counter medications. But if you need one, it never hurts to ask.
Water-Bottle Refills As long as onboard supplies allow it, flight attendants are usually willing to refill your empty bottle of water for you. Blair says, "Most flight attendants are very generous with beverages." Since passengers who carry their own water bottles will have had to empty them before going through security at the airport, this added service can come in extra handy for the hydration-conscious.
Short-Term Babysitting Parents flying alone with infants and small children have bladders too, and, happily, flight attendants are often more than willing to watch a baby or child for a few minutes while a parent runs to the bathroom or stretches his or her legs. "Watching babies was one of my favorite things to do in-flight," says Blair. "For safety reasons, most airlines ask flight attendants to sit in the aisle passenger seat so they're not standing and holding a baby."
Help Finding a Doctor Almost all airlines train cabin crew to ask for medical assistance onboard, so if you've got a personal medical emergency, a flight attendant will be your best bet for quickly finding a doctor in-flight. On most airlines, that means the flight attendant will make an announcement over the loudspeaker, but Lufthansa has a program which gives doctors frequent-flier miles for identifying themselves to the airline in advance.
Seconds Did the bag of tiny pretzels leave you peckish? If you're flying an airline with free snacks or meals, you can ask for seconds. If, after all passengers are served, there's extra, flight attendants are likely to grant your request. Blair says flight departure times can help you predict the likelihood of there being extra food: "On some flights it seems nearly all of the passengers pass on meals or snacks (such as late at night). Those flights are the best bet for getting seconds."
Help Switching Seats Have a seat assignment that's got you sitting far from a travel companion? Flight attendants are often willing to help negotiate seat switches so you can sit together. They can help as long as there's time, says Blair, so if you're going to ask for help, do it soon after boarding. They may ask you to wait until everyone has taken their seats (or until you're at cruising altitude), but it's better to have your polite request on their radar for whenever they have a second.
Cockpit Tours It may seem incredible given the concern about cockpit security, but if you ask, many pilots are more than willing to give mini cockpit tours before or after the flight. The best time for a visit is usually after a flight has landed, since that's when pilots tend not to be as rushed. Blair says, "Pilots love to get visitors, especially wide-eyed children. It makes their day to have the chance to show off their 'office.'"
[size=14pt].......one time i flew arik domestic flight, i was very thirsty and opted for water instead of juice, i then asked for a refill of water in those tiny disposable cups they give you water in, i was amazed at the attitude of the particular cabin steward that served, he just looked at me and vvveeerrryyyy reluctantly poured out another round of mini water for me. It was pretty annoying, but i just let the matter go! ![angry](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/angry.png) [/size] |

Education / Re: Robbery in Imo State Uni. Who Do I Report To? (urgent) by pomsky: 11:11am On Jun 16, 2015 |
imsuboi: Please help a brother!
This is a case of broad day light robbery
As is a well known fact, Imo State University doesn't have official school hostels; So everyone stays off campus.
I stay in a lodge around aladimma axis (Imsu's backgate)
Since I moved into this place, there has been a fee that's being paid annually. A fee of 1000 (per head). The fee is being collected by one Aladimma student's alliance
Now, let's do a little math.
See, the funny thing is that aladimma is made up of more than 50 hostels with occupants within the range of 300 to 400(some hostels hold up to 900 students). So, roughly speaking, aladimma has close to or more than 10000 students.
All these students are expected to pay 1000 to an organization that lacks transparency of any sort. An organization headed by just one person( chosen by a sham election annually). An organization that has cultists as it's "task force".
Two things raised my eye brows:
1. the manner at which this "fee" is collected and 2. where the funds go to. (Read on, you'll soon find out)
Manner of collection a) The special "task force" pastes a hand written notice on each hostel's gate notifying the occupants of their will to collect their fee( in the same manner armed robbers paste hand written notes informing a neighborhood of their impending, inevitable doom).
b) two to three days later; as early as 6:00am( sometimes, 5:00am) the hostels are flooded with touts. Slamming people's doors, threatening to break them down, basically, just tossing threats about; in a bid to get the occupant to open the door.
c) if by chance, you have enough balls of steel and don't open, your room is marked for further harassment.
d) if you do open. They request for a proof of payment. When this isn't available at the time of asking, they FORCE their way into your room and stroll away with whatever they feel like; telling you to come and "redeem" it when you're willing to pay.
It doesn't matter if you're male or female, the treatment is the same.
Where the funds go to
Peripherally, I had always wondered where these funds go to. Till I had a chat with a few of my friends over this issue.
They opened my eyes to the past and present presidents of this sham organization.
They've all bought cars! (I don't mean kabu kabu second hand vehicles). I mean TEAR RUBBER cars!
Apparently, these funds are channelled into one _asshole's pocket, who then pays his boys( I'm sure, quite handsomely).
This has got to stop! Please who do I report to? Imo State Uni has got no Student Union Government( Rochas scrapped it last year)
Help! This is broad day light robbery!
[size=14pt]........don't report, leave it alone. You don't have what it takes to withstand the reprisals. If you like go ahead.....you have been advised. It's N1000 per annum, which comes to less than N85 monthly. Do your studies and pass through, don't be a casualty, don't be the lesson to be taught others, don't be the scape goat![/size] |

However, she (HR) called him to know if all was well only for the guy to tell her he didn’t receive any call from our company after which she ended the call. The guy letter called back saying he just discovered after checking his call log that our company truly called, but his phone was with his 15 years old younger brother as at that time who was playing game on his phone and he (the younger brother) was the one who received the call and got all the message on his behalf but forgot to deliver the message to him. The guy pleaded if the company could reconsider, saying he has been searching for jobs for many years and our HR personnel told him she will get back to him if the company reconsiders. But the truth is, the interview has already been concluded and they have chosen those they want to choose. I pity him though, but………GOD knows best.

bishopclin: Overhaul Presidency, Inject Fresh Blood, Seadogs Tell Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari has been advised by the National Association of Seadogs to take urgent steps to dismantle the bureaucracy in the Presidency so as to bring in new persons with fresh ideas and orientation.
The group said Buhari's second coming would start on good note if he first beamed his anti-corruption searchlight on his immediate environment by ordering all senior members of his government to publicly declare their assets on assumption of duty.
These were some of the recommendations contained in a paper presented by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr. Paul Erokoro, on the occasion of the association's feast Barracuda held in Abuja over the weekend.
The lawyer who spoke on effective measures to deal with the pervasive corruption in the land, said one of the things the President Buhari must do if he is to be taken serious in fighting corruption is to dismantle the bureaucracy around the presidency and to ensure only persons who are qualified and above board were appointed to strategic positions.
