Its not for entertainment that i write it..And dont worry i am used to people being skeptic..i was the master skeptic until it started happening to me..my neighbour years ago used to chat with me about dreams or i would tell him about mine and he would say he is not able to have visions of the future but that he likes one radio program about ghost and visions and aliens from space and such...One day he told me he saw me driveing a white truck in his dream....Months later i went to the car sales and asked for the cheapest truck they had with smallest gas consumption,they brought me the last cheapest truck on the compound and it was white as snow and i still have it to this day ,knowing my nieghbour has ability to dream of the future even though he says he cannot because he doesnt remember his dreams often...one of my earliest dreams of the future was that a sock for my feet was laying in the door way, and a month or so later it was laying there just as i had forseen it....Any life issue can appear in dreams ,i can even attest to forseeing the day i passed my record breaking load in the toilet..Na true o,i no dey laugh(ok i just did laugh,could not help myself from laughing)...

Na only on playstation can a 4 year old learn how to operate a gun to gain what he wants ,even before he learns the real life consequence of those actions..Na the boy go suffer more without a father and the life long guilt he will never understand..And thats if the saudi govt doesnt behead him in public or cut off his hands or such..

Phiozy: that's 2 say they may b right to think dat u had sum powers o... Jst wonderin d kinda tins u were doin 2save pple's lives in deadly situatn....

I lived in Hawaii for the past 11 years and thats where my house,car and postal mail is even though i have been spending the past few years trvelling to live in other countries....In Hawaii my life is alway at the beach and it is a dangerous beach also and hawaii has the some of worlds largest waves more often than other places....I once had a dream there about my exwife dying and i wrote the dream on paper and shared it with people working at the place i saw in my dream..the owner of the business was angry and kicked me out and said i never come back and am mental for trying to write and share such things...I pressed law suit against him and in the year it took to investigate him and for me to eventually have the case dismissed for lack of evidence,my ex wife was murdered by her new lover and many towns people remebered my story from the business i was banned from returning to..i became popular but i shyed away from people in my own sorrows of not being able to stop what i had forseen...Some time later i was shareing the story of another dream about tsunami wave coming while i was at the ocean..i was shareing the story at another store/business location as i shopped there with my friend serving me as she worked behind the cash register..people behind me heard me talk and they knew me from the days when i talked about my ex wife dream and how it came true(my ex wife murder was publicized state wide and she was used in campaign against domestic abuse of women)..The man that overheard my dream story about the tsunami went and told all his friends and the story spread state wide with over 800 people asking about tsunami coming and they called the mayor to ask and he called the govenor to ask and the mayor did not have an official warning and told people to not worry as no tsunami would come and some one had spread vicious rumor and must be arrested..The mayor was on the radio every hour all day long telling people to go back to the beach and go back to their business and shopping ETC..The mayor further said that the rumor had caused loss of bussiness for the government and community for that day and he would find the culprit and do justice...I was quiet and so were all the others who knew me and spread the rumor of my dream of tsunami......The next day the mayor was on the Radio in very grieved voice announcing for all to stay away from the beach because he just recieved report from the earthquake watch office that big earthquake in chile had struck and we would have to be concerned in hawaii for tsunami.....i was an instant star all over town and it brought me fame and much trouble from people trying to make me bleed so as to test the myths they spread about me....The Hollywood film crew for steven spielberg and george lucas were filming tropic thunder in hawaii at the time and also heard the news of rumor about tsunami and also the news that the mayor was shamed in the city when the tsunami actually came...The lucas films group came to my town to check things out and came to the beach where i was and asked about me while they kept their identity secret...the waves that day were rough and one man was being carried away into the deadly rocks and i was the only one to go and fetch him,the film crew people caught it on camera and one of the film crew went in the water after the first rescue and he was carried out to sea and i tried to help him but a big wave carried him into the rocks and so jonathan cupp of hollywood died that day while holding his hand out to me for rescue...The other film crew caught all this on tape and submitted it to the news channels for broadcast state wide and my fame and troubles grew...the mayor ,govenor and senator in washington DC all came to the beach to see who i was and i talked to no one in sorrow of a second time some one died while so close to my being able to help...I did save one man and his wife thanked me much...George lucas and steven spielberg came back to the island and my town later on in full publicity and filmed scenes for indiana jones 4 there as a jesture of how moved they were by the real life adventure they had there with my own personal "dream works"..I stay alone there mostly avoiding people and their interest to make a big scene for fame..i recieved nothing from holly wood other than still today they use the national public radio and local radio to air programs about social issues that pertain to troubles i may be having with people causing me trouble ,as every one still has an eye on me there even the Media moguls among who many have vacation homes in hawaii and Jane fonda herself lives in my part of hawaii and contributed to me exwifes campaign forum against abusing women..jason scott lee (acted as bruce lee and other HBO films) lives in my small town area and its common to see him on the streets lke normal person with no big mobs troublng him....I did go on to predict other tsunamis and now i just go to the local government council and tell them my dream and just to go to alert level preparedness and they also move emergency funds to the prepardeness account when the alert is made and they have had acurate calls from me 3 times already and the last 2 were made directly to the city councelor with the mayors office and extended to the senators in washington DC...The Samoa tsunami years ago and the chile tsunami that hit before the next big japan tsunami...Hawaii is in the center of the pacific and gets hit by all the tsunamis from all directions....I keep very discreet in hawaii and when i am there i try to survive the random onslaught of people confused about things no one understands

i dont remember learning my first language,english..I must have learned from my family raiseing me...my second language was Yoruba with friends at school because we did not speak yoruba at home or in the classroom lessons...2 years of playing with friends at primary school and my yoruba was sufficient for normal life there...My third language now is spanish and i just move to a spanish speaking country and study a book and watch the television with written english caption as they speak spanish and i have dictionary and some times friends give me short lessons to help..I still have a ways to go,but i have such a good foundation in spanish now that its easy to understand whats being said if the people are talking about what they are doing at the moment to include actions as examples and i can understand some abstract conversations but those are the hardest without my translation book...yo apprende poco des lengua espanol todos las dias aqui..esta bien,A Dios Vos

Statistics will come to use in the application of all other studies or proffessions and so every one will be exposed to the study of statistics...A field like physics is very involved with math for manageing data sets...Physics or statistics would be great and very broad fields of study as they are used to work in chemistry ,biology,or should i stopp listing and just say that between the two,every thing from politics to arts and sciences are covered....I guess it depends on the country you want to work in ,if you want good employment..

is that a range rover coming in the distance?

once people started spreading rumors that i was magical and had divine protection to keep me from harm and that i could not be killed....My reaction was to worry..Shortly after the rumors spread wide,people started to come searching me out to test the rumor and try to harm or kill me....I never told anyone these things,i just did a few things that saved some peoples lives in deadly situation and my repayment was: people thinking crazy thoughts and coming after me to test their own delusions at the expense of my life and well being

I have been using electronic music production equipment in USA for about 5 years now and i want to ship it to Lagos to stay there...The price to ship it is about the same as i can get if i sell in USA or maybe cost more to send it than to sell it....I want to send it to lagos because it is worth so much more being used to produce music...My only concern is if it is possible to buy a 2nd hand Korg Triton Extreme 88 key synthesizer workstation in Nigeria for less than $1,500.oo they are hard to find 2nd hand, because no one wants to sell them and every one wants one..they dont sell new ones any more...The other pieces of equipment i have are smaller and also easier to substitute or just ship with not much cost....The korg top end 88 key synthesizer workstations sell for over $3000.oo new and the latest models sell for over $4000,oo retail in the 1st year released...So if i cant buy used one for less than shipping my used one,its worth it to ship it....i will mange either way because music production tools can make millions with the right musicians and skills....

my friend in nigeria wanted to purchase internet sale item and he asked me in USA to purchase it..So i purchased it in USA with USA bank Visa card but had the delivery address as owerri in Nigeria...He recieved the package free of charge as gift from me...Shipping to Nigeria is not the problem these companies have,its conducting the financial transactions with Nigeria as required to pay for the shipment.

Yes remember there are still isolated towns in USA where they chase away all non white people or treat them very badly until they go away or die or get locked in prison..Mississippi and tennessee and many other states have areas like this..i happened to get chased out of one town while travelling accross the country...The original people of this land are not white and they are also treated this way in those areas...i can only imagine that president Obama would drivr into these towns and be chased out by ignorant haters...Places like that eventually all become related to each other and since no new people are allowed,thaey marry into insest.....The government of USA provides leagal intervention for this as was in my home state Kentucky where an african man was denied marriage in the church of his white fiancee...The case went to supreme court and the church was shamed all over national news castings...The African man did marry his white bride and the pastor apologized for his sins....Good topic

the 400 pound price you mentioned would be a good price in new-york or los angeles USA for most world major cities....one of the cheapest regions in USA can rent rooms for $150 in tight quarters,and yet when they host the annual world event KENTUCKY DERBY,a house that rents near the event normaly for $800.oo monthly,will go for $20,000.oo and more during time of the event..The event attracts Arabian princes and kings who fly in with their own 747 jet liners loade with horse stables and horses to join the event or just to buy and sell million dollar horses during the event....When big money comes to town,every one raises prices...

edicolove: The Nigerian senator does not receive the salary for life but it is still way way too ridiculous. What is more ridiculous is that this is official salaries. I mean, if we are talking about embezzlement, it would be another matter. But to think that they are legitimately collecting these is just crazy. Because some might argue that the executive and others are stealing money but then you can expose and stop monies being stolen by them. What the legislators collect, you cannot stop. It is constitutional.

THANKS FOR THE REPLY,NOW I KNOW SOMETHING NEW,AND I HOPE NIGERIA CAN EQUALIZE THE MAJOR IMBALANCE BETWEEN THE PEOPLE AND THEIR GOVERNMENT...I WANT NIGERIA TO DO WELL,BECAUSE I MAY NEED TO SEEK REFUGE THERE WHEN THEY TRY PUT COMPUTER CHIP IN MY NYASH IN U.S.A.

In the United states...a senator or the president will recieve 100% of his salary for life even if he or she only serves 4 years.....If the Nigerian senator and president does not recieve salary for life after only 4 years,then maybe the the USA has an overall higher salary...Do nigerian senators and presidents recieve their salary for life??

Its correct to say that it is hausa or fulani and also correct to say it is arabic..hausa/or fulani brought it to the region from arabic influence...I was watching program of desert life in arabia and there was a major sand storm...the local people called it a WAHAL...The sand storm is the number one bringer of trouble for them in the desert where all thier homes and belongings and even cities can be buried in wind blown sand after being scattered...So Wahal(sandstorm) is such a big trouble that it is the word used to describe trouble itself...Mahal is the opposite of trouble and is used to connote love in countries from arabia all the way to india and even south asia where indian islamist once colonized..."Taj MAHAL" in india built for love...."Mahal kita"used in Philippines to express love....Imagine if the "taj mahal" was called the "taj wahal"...it would be a house of troubles......Even though its heard among hausas saying "Masala" every tribe has many different dialects where Masala may be used among many hausa and yet some other hausas may use the word wahala...I found it interesting to find the word Okari in japan as the word for man and then to know the word Okurin in yoruba for man...They say all language spread from central africa with Yoruba being among the oldest languages...The Yoruba word for snake is very similar to the ancient egypt word for snake "je"..ejo in yoruba...morphology will always make changes but similarities will remain over many generations and migrations....

I was taught when i was younger that syntax and semantics were not intertwined where there is one without the other...then i learned about syntax and morphology where all things in the universe have a shape and order of arrangement..Even meaning or semantics itself is subject to syntax...if you can change the meaning of something,then you have changed its semantic designation and therefore have changed its semantic syntax...1st comes syntax and then all things fall under syntax..even semantics has a syntactical basis....Syntax for genetics,spoken languages,math languages,computer codes/encryptions,positions of planets E.T.C......if the position can be altered in shape or placement,then its syntactical position is altered...if you can change your position on the meaning of something,then its semantic syntax is altered....No one is above being a fool,not even I,but it is good to hold back on ones own masterfulness so as not to easily fall into the position of the master fool.......

are you talking about electricity inverter or other---my interest is in electric conversion from 120volt to 220-240 volt in nigeria...please tell me and i will see if my questions apply to you...thanks

Its because it translate in yoruba to a multipurpose word with broad range of wellwishing meanings....people who speak english,may also think in alternate grammar syntax and also in alternate semantic syntax....In this spanish speaking country,i am learning spànish in addition to my english and i speak yoruba...yoruba and pidgin have some Portuguese-spanish words like dame loun and sabi or sabir...many spanish words are the same as english but have different semantic use or i mean -they use the word in different meaning...it can be confusing but it helps me understand the roots of english and how words and thier meaning evolve..in english,to molest conotes a sexual violation,but in spanish molest means to cheat some one with money or to damage property or body harm...I was feeling strange when the money changer at the national border promised not to ¨molest¨ my money exchange deal with him,where in english i would worry he reach into my pocket beyond my money and into my prize jewels......

Its true in all countries...I had girlfriend in asia who wanted me to buy her a phone.. i had the most simple samsung phone on the market for $20.oo and she wanted the latest touch screen I-phone imitation,which is much cheaper than I-phone..So i bought it for her and every body sees me with the poor man phone while she has the nicer one even though she had no money to buy it....I was just happy to see her happy...another woman loaned her cheap phone to me and i left asia when her phone was stolen,so i had to send her money to buy new one..She used my $100.oo to buy 2 new phones while i returned using only her second hand phone that cost $20.oo when it was new.......I prefer the cheap phone because i lose or drop them so much,i hate to see nice phone break every 3 months...and then the money i save by buying cheap phone for myself then only goes to buying expensive phone for a woman if i want to be able to stay in contact with her...Maybe one day my turn go come and Rich woman go buy for me nice things.....

I would first inquire about the arsenic or whatever toxin is in african cassava...In The Americas,there is cassava by the name of manioc or yucca..The cassava versions in the americas do not have the issue with toxins as i ate some cooked whole like a potato a few days ago in central america nicaragua..i think i will have more cassava cooked whole like potato again today.......Nigerian cassava may not be accepted in well developed countries unless it has been cleanly processed with minimum traces of toxin...we buy garri in USA and other african foods at african food stores...look up web sites for african food stores around the world and see if you can get some answers...Most african food stores i know are run by africans who go back to africa and already have connections in africa with family and friends...I grow a few clean version of cassava(manioc) on my land in hawaii....

I was in philippines a year ago or more when this story was on the news...It has since been made into documentary film on discovery channel where they researched the area and the story and filmed the whole history of the problem and the story that there is an even bigger one never caught yet...the bigger one lives free because it is not very man hungry..........There was the biggest one caught on the Niger river some where between Mali and maybe even in Nigeria...it was a Nile crocodile man eater bigger than the philippines one...Nile crocodile monsters in the Niger river.....I have the photo of the niger and philippine ones on my face book...i will try to see if the picture of Niger croc can transfer here.....I cannot find how to tranfer the video here or the link....IF Interested to see the NIGER CROC,,,type in to youtube : NIGER CROC and the video will come up if you have the right system to run the video play...

I am planning on sending some USA standard current/electricity electronic equipment....I had used the equipment in asia for 2 years with an inverter to convert asian 220/240 into 110/120 for my equipment i sent my equipment back to USA where it works fine....My next destination is to nigeria with the equipment by the end of 2013.......I am sure inverters are able to help me there,but one question still concerns me about the Hz rating or hertz frequency of the electric current there in nigeria....i see always between 50 and 60 hertz for most electric devices,my equipment is electronic music recording and workstation/synth and sound system which some times would produce interference hum from other instrument ;namely,my friends guitar in asia and the guitar was made in asia also..other asian guitars had no problem and the guitar in question had problem only on my sound system....My guess was the non grounded electric system there or maybe the guitar was not compatable with the hertz frequency of my system...i am not sure,but a clue was that we tried to connect a wire from his guitar strings to the microphone stand and also to his body and it reduced the hum interference to acceptable levels...maybe thats a grounding issue...American standard electrics are all made to be grounded...........Any way,if any one can share info on if hertz frequency differ between USA and Nigeria,it will help me decide if its a waste to ship sensitive and expensive equipment only to see it fry under incompatible electric current.......One piece of mine had minor damage in asia due to electric surge just before power outage,it still works but has a digital stain on the LED screen and one data bank (i have 500 data banks on it,so 1 is no big deal)....I prefer voltage regulator inverters used with surge protector......Naija music industry could use my equipment and so i hope it works out to be OK to ship it there...

When the president of USA or many other wealthy countries travel on diplomatic foriegn government affairs,they take a fleet of cars and aircraft including any car that suits the interest of the visiting president....I remember seeing an article about the president of gabon being alloted an official car and the people decided their prEsident deserved the best car in the world;so some one decided the most expensive one was the best and they finalized to get their president a BUGATI VEYRON for driving Gabon.......IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE PHOTO HERE IS A DIPLOMATIC IMPORT ON GOVERNMENT BUSINESS IN ABUJA? COULD IT BE THE PRESIDENT OF GABON CAR?

omega25red: Hey may I ask what industry you work in that allows you to travel so much?

I WORK IN A FIELD CALLED: BEING RETIRED WITH FREE TIME AND MONEY,ITS FROM MY DAYS SERVING IN U.S.A MILITARY....ITS NOT A LOT OF MONEY IN U.S.A. BUT WHEN I GO TO COUNTIRES WHERE THE DOLLAR IS IN FAVOUR AND THE COST ARE CHEAP, I AM ABLE TO SAVE MONEY AND THEN BUY TICKET TO TRAVEL AGAIN TO ANOTHER COUNTRY AFTER 6 MONTHS OF SAVING MONEY IN PREVIOUS COUNTRY...

Not only nairaland...It is in all Internet chat sites with no strict enforcement of conduct....I travel many countries around the world and use the local internet forums to gain information about those countries..The only social forums where i dont get insults,are from the country forums where very few people comment or reply at all.....Insults,i leave alone,difference of opinion?,i respect even if i disagree....Take it easy and be glad every one is not in person scrapping it out....
