Travel / Re: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by AYFikayomi: 10:07pm On Sep 11
Hello,

I am supposed to go to Germany for a six-month research program starting November 1 and ending April 30. I will receive funding of €3,000 and am required to supplement the remainder through a blocked account. As such, I am supposed to open a blocked account for three months. Unfortunately, I have only been able to secure funds for two months at this time. Could I apply for a five-month visa starting December 1 and ending April 30 or Starting November 1 and ending March 31?

Agriculture / Tips On Working With Farmers For Soybean And Sunflower Export Deals? by AYFikayomi: 8:45pm On Sep 05
Hey everyone,

I'm looking into signing contracts with farmers to grow soybeans and sunflowers, which I’d then export (import to where I live). I’m wondering if anyone here has experience with this and can offer some advice.

How common is it to contract directly with farmers for these crops? And if you've done it, how do you handle things like ensuring the crops are delivered on time, in the right quantity and quality? What happens if things go wrong, like if the yield is lower than expected or there are delays? Is there a standard way to enforce contracts in situations like this?

Also, I’d love to hear about any challenges with exporting these crops. Are there any certifications or legal requirements I need to be aware of for shipping internationally? And how do you deal with risks like market price changes or crop failures?

If you've been through this process, I’d really appreciate any tips or lessons you've learned—especially when it comes to payment, managing expectations, and keeping the relationship smooth with the farmers.

Thank you!!!

Travel / Re: Italian Student Visa-help! by AYFikayomi: 10:56am On May 30, 2023
Hi, I got an offer to do a 2 month internship at the University of foggia. 3k dollars monthly stipend stipend, they’ll help with accommodation but Ill pay. However, everything I’ve read says the city is poor, mafia, refugees and racist etc. I have the option of doing the Internship in Izmir, Turkey (a country I have lived i ) stipend around 550 dollars monthly, but with accommodation, 2 meals and Turkey is cheaper. I have never been to Italy and think the experience and project will look good on my cv, but the place looks like a village and I think I’ll stand out as a black man. What do you think? Has anyone here lived in foggia?

Hello Cheifs, Joining a research group at the University of applied sciences in Neubrandenburg.

What are the chances of me getting a (part-time) job in Neubrandenburg, and the environs? Am I permitted to work with my Schengen residence permit or do I need a Visa? Program would be for just under 3 months. I don't speak German. Thanks.

datigbogirl:


And who's responsible for the bad govt? No be me & you- blacks?

Everything written about about being black there is true, if it weren't we wouldn't be bothered about an ordinary word.

Perhaps if we ourselves change our ways, the word "black" could end up meaning something good, and I can assure you, if whites became as useless & cruel as we are, the word "white" would end up meaning a different thing.

We make words what they mean with our attitude not the other way round.

STFU, I'm black and I'm not those words ascribed there, If you believe thats the way you and your people are, you can petition them to transfer the descriptions to your family name. (No offence).... All these self hating people on Nairaland feeling smart.

This is just stupidity. The definitions are fine as they are. Should the meaning of red be changed because red Indians feel bad about that characterisation?

People are becoming more stupid as the world grows older.

Lol, who calls Native Americans 'Reds'?

Besides ask someone what red means and he'll firstly say Love, before danger or passion.

TheLogicalMind:
Political correctness gone rogue again. They're confusing "black" as a colour with "black" as a racial classification.

Who cares if if İts the colour or race? you are just playing Devils advocate. If the term black is associated with negative things it definitely would have a negative effect on the race refered to as black.

BTW, It's always dissapointing to see a black man being against 'political correctness'.

Its not faultless but being against it shows you dont realise how 'handicapped' the black race is on the global scale.

fabian063:
VVD do deserve to win it. Remember that Modric won the Balon d' or not because he won the world cup, but because he won the champions league and his team made the world cup final.

VVD deserves it... but he didnt make the world cup final, neither did he perform in the National league as well as Modric did in the world cup.

Dont forget Modric won the golden ball in the world cup- the biggest footballing tournament in the world, not this third rate tournament.

This year both VVD and Messi deserve it and İ'll be fine with anyone of them winning it.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Facts Which Expose ISIS As A Us-israel Creation by AYFikayomi: 1:06pm On Jun 09, 2019
İts no news, A volatile middle east is perfect for the US especially due to the prescence of İsreal. A united ME would control 66% of the world's oil production, add İran and Russia then they control about 90%, and with money, intellects. An İslamic süper power? Not good for the west.

Then the west wont be in control, A super arab nation can decide not to play ball with the US and that would not only affect the mega arms industry, it will also greatly affect the Dollars' status as the world's reserve currency.

A non-waring ME leads to Pan-Arabism, which is anti-İsreal, and consequentially anti-west, The West learnt their lessons in '73, An disunited ME is best for them.

So let me get this straight ... you are conceding that Pep failed at Bayern? cheesy
There is really nothing special that Pep did in Barca, I mean, they won the treble after Pep left ... you know the time when Pep was scratching his head at Munich grin

Pep took a team that had gone 2 seasons trophyless and won the historic sextuple (all 6 available) trophies and 3 b2b LaLiga titles.
Out of 18 available trophies in first 3 seasons he won 14!
If that is not special, what is?

Oga Mourinho and Pep played only two seasons in Spain... Know your records

Yea, my apologies

Mourinho has 4 European trophies, Pep 2.

My argument is that Pep dominated Mourinho in Spain! Mou was actually ahead of hım in my books until he started getting sacked every where.

Besides Pep dosent have 2 'European trophies, he has 5. 'Know your records'.

İf you don't agree that Mourinho Madrid isn't the best laliga side ever,

Ofcourse I agree grin


Why then do you Barca fans says pep's man city is the best EPL side ever??

Barca fans are free to believe that city is the best EPL side ever, You're also free to think so of Real12, I just dont agree. İts a worthy belief but I dont agree.... I also dont think City are the best side of all time in the PL.

Lol... Because of 5-0?? Thank God you know Mourinho knocked out in UCL, COPA and dominated Barca 2011, thereby becoming the best laliga side in history becoming the first team to amass 100 points in a single laliga season

RM 12 are not the best side in LaLiga history, you could argue, but I dont believe so.

Mourinho didnt knock Pep out of the UCL with Real, Pep did knock hım out though.

İn the 3 seasons they spent together in Spain Pep won the LaLiga twice, Mourinho once....

He finished above Mou all the times they were together in the PL and lets now forget how Pep continues to trash Mou on h2h.

Tired of facts? Why was ronado voted as a midfielder in the 2006/07 fifpro 11 team? Do you agree that the other midfielders in the list were midfielders? Why? And why was messi voted as forward and Ronaldo as a midfield?

https://fifpro.org/award-history/fifpro-world-xi-2006-2007/en/

if ronado play left where Ryan giggs come play? And for which position? Were Saha and rooney(alan smith) not man united strikers in a 4-4-2 formation?

Your cherry picking is laughable, Ferguson started playing Cristano as a Foward in the middle of 06/07 season. You said Ronaldo played as a midfielder for 6years at Man Utd.

Can you give me 2 examples of those 'good attacking' teams Barca have suffered alot against? The amount of nonsense Ive read on this thread ehnn. People think Barca is Man city.

Liverpool stand a good chance 50:50 for me, but İts not for the reasons people are listing here. They definitely dont have a better squad than Barca.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Liverpool Vs Barcelona - Who Has The Stronger Squad? by AYFikayomi: 8:20pm On Apr 20, 2019
Ter Stegen
Alba/Robertson
VVD
Pique
Semedo/AAT/Roberto
Busquet
Authur
Rakitic
Salah
Messi
Suarez

Barca has the better squad, İts shocking people are even debating this. However, football is not all about the squad, e.g City have a better squad But are still struggling with Pool this season.

Anybody that says Becker is better that Ter Stegen either dosent watch Barca regularly or is dumb. (No offence)

Judging by history, I'm more confident of victory @ Anfield than Camp Nou.

We will beat them at Camp Nou. I'm actually Glad the first leg is at 'Nou, If it was at Anfield I reckon we would have lost and wouldn't recover at 'Nou seeing how poor we can be away sometimes.

We'll win the first leg playing good football and get through the second leg pragmatically.

Ronaldo wasn't mad because Modric won it,he was mad because he lost which is something even his Real Madrid teammates are used to.Even they said they knew he might not attend cause they know his winning mentality is second to none.Even Modric still sees him as a friend and likewise Ronaldo.So if you don't know the man don't post wrong things.
P.S:Ronaldo's winning mentality and his never wanting to lose(even to a friend)attitude might be his greatest weakness but it's also his greatest strength ND the reason he's been able to establish that talent without hardwork will run out as time goes on you wink

So Ronaldo won't run out as time goes on... interesting thought

Yes.

Modric beat him in an important WC game.
Salah booted out Roma that booted out Messi.

Modric played in the final of the 2 most important competitions in the year.

Salah played in the final of 1.

Messi did not get anywhere close to final in either.

A half-fit Salah scored 2 WC goals in 2 matches. Messi scored 1 in 4 matches.

Over 200 coaches and captains across the world are not blind.

2 pks right?.... so you think being in the final of the UCL is better than winning a league title?... You honestly think Salah had a better world cup than Messi?... SMH
