wch one come b dis.

I just launched a new drupal site. Abeg, I want you guys to help me review it and point out places that need adjustment. I have not fully uploaded the contents. So just look at the design and others things.
Thanks.

Am currently in a nationwide rally that draws participants from all the corners of Nigeria. Though we have low turn out of indigenes from the NW due to the fact that most of their feps are from the southern part of the country. We have spent two days now, and everybody is getting along fine without any problem. We eat and sleep together, crack joke, even when politics where been discussed, no one "tribalize" anything. We are just cook with each other. As an ardent follower of nairaland, I was expecting to see her here tribal comments or "body language" but low and behold, nothing of such. Does it mean that we just use the cover of internet to spew thrash without actually having a hatred for one another. Just my opinion. During the arrival, i was happy seeing people hugging one another as the buses arrive in batches, without minding tribes. I just hope we stop all these ranting online. I just see it as " internet at the wrong hands "

plz, is there any body with 2.2 that hv been called.

Am not trying to justify my silence on the question, but there are some questions that throw candidates off balance. I never expected such... and my mind was telling to answer that "it depends ingredients on how and how the person wants it." but before I could say anything, one of them just interrupted me. I jst feel so bad now.

DDeliverer:
whc kind interview dem dey ask abt egg?

na buka u submit cv to?

applied for marketing in an IT firm based in abj.

This is how a member of the panel asked me the question... "this is a logical question for you, if you asked to fry an egg, how will you do it."


O boy, I just freeze. I couldn't say anything for about 30secs... I was about opening my mouth when another member of the panel said that I shouldn't mind. I was really heart broken.


Abeg any one with the answer, make he help me just in case of next time.

I saw an advert on one of MTN packages (Ipulse)... That if you spend up to N200 in a day, you will be given 250MB to browse between 1am-5am... So I migrated to the package to try it. The first day, it worked, I was given the 250MB to browse. So I thought its all normal. Then, 3 days later, I spent another N200 hoping it will work... For where... Dem no give me anything. Tried it again, nothing. But they keep writing it when you load card or check you balance that "you will be given free browsing time btw 1am-5am once you spent up to N200 in a day. I don do am pass 7 times, na just only once the thing work, whcih on the first day of my migration. I even tried calling their CC, them no dey pick call... Even when I no get anybody to call, I try to finish the credit just for the free browsing, but them no give anything. I remember when I called one of my female friend for about 5min+, she come dey wonder weda I don get wrk... Only for MTN to disappoint me... Thier own scamming too much.

more pics...

One day, we go wake up discover say all man don dey park to another planet...

See how far the US have gone in terms of technology. But its a pity that we are still in nursery school when compared to the.

Pluto: New Horizons probe completes flyby nine years after leaving Earth
Nasa spacecraft makes history as the first spacecraft to reach distant dwarf planet, the last unexplored world in solar system

Cheers, whoops and flag waving broke out at Nasa’s New Horizons control centre as scientists celebrated the spacecraft’s dramatic flyby of Pluto, considered the last unexplored world in the solar system.

The probe shot past at more than 28,000mph (45,000 km/h) at 12.49pm BST (7.49am ET) on a trajectory that brought the fastest spacecraft ever to leave Earth’s orbit within 7,770 miles of Pluto’s surface.

The moment, played out on Tuesday to the sound of The Final Countdown by the 1980s glam metal band Europe, marked a historic achievement for the US, which can now claim to be the only nation to have visited every planet in the classical solar system.

“It feels good,” said Alan Stern, lead scientist on the mission. “So many people put so much work into this around the country. We’ve completed the initial reconnaissance of the solar system, an endeavour started under President Kennedy.”

John Grunsfeld, head of Nasa’s science mission directorate, said that images beamed back from New Horizons on its approach showed Pluto to be an “extraordinarily interesting and complex world”.

“It’s just amazing. It’s truly a hallmark in human history,” he said of the encounter with Pluto. “It’s been an incredible voyage.”


Stephen Hawking, the Cambridge cosmologist, joined in congratulating the New Horizons team in a recorded message. “Billions of miles from Earth this little robotic spacecraft will show us that first glimpse of mysterious Pluto, a distant icy world on the edge of our solar system. The revelations of New Horizons may help us to understand better how our solar system was formed. We explore because we are human and we long to know,” he said.

Bristling with cameras and other instruments, the New Horizons probe was programmed to gather a wealth of images and data as it sped past Pluto and its five small moons, Charon, Styx, Nix, Hydra and Kerberos.

Images beamed back from New Horizons have shown Pluto in shades of red and orange, with hints of valleys, mountains and craters. On Tuesday Nasa released a new image of Pluto. The picture was taken at about 9pm BST (4pm ET) on 13 July, about 16 hours before the moment of closest approach. The spacecraft was 476,000 miles from the surface.

Though Pluto has a varied terrain, with dark patches on the equator and brighter regions to the north, its surface looks younger and smoother than that of its largest moon, Charon. The reason may be geological activity, which refreshes the body’s surface.

Sensors on New Horizons detected Pluto’s thin nitrogen atmosphere extending far out into space. Scientists believe it may shed snow, with flakes tumbling down to the surface before vaporising back into the atmosphere.

Other measurements from the probe have found that Pluto is larger than previously thought, at 1,470 miles across. That means it contains more ice beneath its surface and less rock than scientists had anticipated.

Mission scientists at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore were out of contact with the spacecraft as it hurtled past the icy body 3bn miles from Earth. Instead the probe captured images and took measurements automatically and stored them on board to send back later.

Alice Bowman, missions operations manager, said that when the spacecraft fell silent on Monday, as expected, scientists stayed in the operations centre. “We wanted to be with it,” she said. “We always talk about the spacecraft being a child, a baby, a teenager. We lost signal as planned last night, and there was nothing anybody on the operations team could do but trust we’d prepared it well.”

At such a great distance, direct control from the ground is impossible, because radio signals take more than nine hours to travel to the spacecraft and back again. It will take 16 months to beam all of New Horizon’s data back to Earth.

Scientists now face an agonising wait for news from the spacecraft, which is due to call home at 2am BST Wednesday (9pm ET Tuesday). Only when that 15 minute-long signal is received will Nasa officials know whether New Horizons survived the flyby.

One of the greatest hazards the spacecraft faces is dust that may form a hazy cloud around Pluto after being knocked off its moons by meteorite strikes. Hal Weaver, a scientist on the mission, said that colliding with a dust particle the size of a grain of rice could potentially destroy the mission. But the risk of such a catasrophic failure was low, at less than one in 10,000.

“I am feeling a little bit nervous, but I have absolute confidence it’s going to do what it needs to do, and turn around and send us that burst of data,” Bowman said.

Stern was equally confident that New Horizons would survive the flyby: “I don’t think we’re going to lose the spacecraft.”

The loss would be tremendous, should it happen. About 99% of the data is still on the spacecraft. “Some of the most important stuff is in that. It would be a great disappointment if New Horizons is lost,” Stern said.

New Horizons blasted off in January 2006, carrying the ashes of Clyde Tombaugh, the astronomer who discovered Pluto in 1930. Several months later, astronomers at the International Astronomical Union voted to change the definition of the word “planet”, a move that downgraded Pluto to the more diminutive “dwarf planet”. The flyby may resurrect the debate and see Pluto restored to full planetary status.

In a live interview on Nasa TV on Tuesday, Charles Bolden, Nasa’s chief administrator, said he hoped the scientists would reconsider the name. “I call it a planet, but I’m not the rule maker,” he said, adding that arguments over Pluto’s status should not detract from the achievement. “It should be a day of incredible pride.”

Pluto lies in a region of space at the edge of the solar system called the Kuiper belt. Astronomers call it the third zone of space. The first zone contains the rocky, terrestrial planets of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The second zone is home to the gas giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Alongside the Pluto system in the Kuiper belt are comets and more than 100,000 miniature worlds.

New Horizons is expected to continue its mission into the Kuiper belt. The spacecraft is powered by a nuclear generator that runs on plutonium, a substance named after the dwarf planet. The generator should run until the 2030s, when New Horizons will be 100 times further away than Earth is from the sun.

Yet another regret mail. This one really pained me as its the last open application that I have and I was seriously hoping that it will click cos I know I did well in the recruitment exercise. I just don't know, but am feeling as if there is no way out of this tunnel.


Plz, if there is any one that can advice or direct me on how else to look for work, plz do help me as am loosing my mind.

MuhdG:
Alhamdulillah.

If she wants to practice islam allow her and support her if you truly love her.

She must have seen the light in Islam.. so why don't you ask her to show it to you.

Good advice. I wish our brothers from the north will have such tolerance. Cos na after her first convert dem go dey call for her head.

[quote author=JudismphD post=34901033][/quote]My man.... I still dey wait for signal.

My friend in lag stays at Ajah. So if the place of work isn't al that far frm there, I wouldn't mind the pay cdI know that transportation cost is high in lag. I guess you know where am heading to.. So even if na 30-50k i no mind to start as I just want my work experience t be counting, I have already lost too much time being idle.


So abeg, anyway wey you go fit improvise for me, I go appreciate.
Thanks

JudismphD:
sorry my brother. I got couple of mails but could not figure out yours. The op situation is just an acide test. I only wanted him to gatecrash while i give him the advantage to participate and influence the HR but he does not reside in lagos and its a game of try your luck. But i can give you a proposal to work on. If you have something vis-a-vis lucrative business idea we could also work together

michealekene:
u ain't alone bro....almost getting to two years now....dragnet dem no dey hlp matter.

wat else can we say.... there is God.....

JudismphD:

my broda, its really bad to be in this situation. The funny thing now is that, whenever am chatting with my friends that are working in big coys, they will be acting as if am trying to ask them to dash me some cash. It's only one of them that is even trying to kip our friendship alive. Well, I don't blame them cos am no longer in their class of friend.

JudismphD:
i have to mention you here for a reason. Other job seekers are following that thread to gatecrash because i have been getting pm's. The company is Neilsen. No 42 isaac john Ikeja GRA Landmark building opposite the place restuarant beside FCMB. I hope the description is clear enough. You go there ask the reception you want to see Mr Festus. Its a research company

I really appreciate your effort. Just that my hands are tied. I have only been to Lagos once, so I dont know much about the place. Secondly, I dont really have the finance that will take me to Lag and spend a night there as I dont have family members leaving there, just a friend. Thats my major issh... If I had the finance, I wont be in my current location now.

JudismphD:
gosh! I thought you live in lagos. I just want you to take a rare chance that secure a friend her job. No its hard cover, so he can follow it personally.

Plz, is there any way out...

Enypie:
God has a package for you already... All it takes to have it is patience and faith.
#don't stop hustling#

Hustling is in my blood.... Else I wouldnt be doing the little biz that am doing now.

Amen my brother.

obinna2nv:
Push down depression and pessimism. Tough times don't last but tough people do...

Thanks alot. Just that am not finding things easy.

janejive:
There is nothing too difficult for God to do, just have a lil patience, ur testimony is on d way.

Truly, I need patience. But am praying to God to give me more of His patience cos its not really easy seeing others been successful and progressing, whilst you are just stagnant with the tunnel so blank.
