Hello house,
For PR applicants, kindly tell, how was your academic transcript sent to the assessing authority?

Engineers Australia has it as part of the documents to be uploaded; however, as our universities here only send it to other institutions I have never gotten by hand. Do I need to figure out a way to get it myself or I just have it sent to Oz directly?

Thanks.
Your school will send it to Engineer Australia. Give them the address during application for the transcript.

If EA requires that you attach unofficial copy, then request for student copy of your transcript.

In all, please do not commit suicide. Committing suicide doesn't solve any problem, it only creates more for others.


I am sorry, I have no idea how to manage a cheating husband. My concern is that you shouldn't commit suicide.

Those kids are too young. I empathize with you and I hope you get peace and succour again from the union.


Although I don't know what you want us to do but believe that we can offer you counsel if need be.

Onegai:
It starts from the Family unit: Parents too busy chasing money to have time for their kids. No, money won't make your kid smart. No time to take their kids to anywhere to learn anything. My dad made us all watch CNN and read classics before the age of 10. I could tell you a bit about the stock market and shares of companies like Coca Cola and PZ and more (he would buy them for us rather than throw us birthday parties) and I devoured my mum's 1956 copy of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice".

It moves onto teachers: I can never forget my Chemistry teacher nor my Literature teacher. Those 2 women taught from the heart, passionate about Education. Compare that to my Biology teacher (who didn't teach a classroom of girls that they had 3 openings between their legs, because it was "unchristian" for us to understand our own biology and bodies apparently). So many people are teaching because they need jobs and food on the table, and don't care to even update their knowledge. And they insist their students learn by rote, rather than Logic and Reasoning (because it's "too haaarrrddd" to mark individual answers rather than standardised ones, they have more "important" stuff to do).

It goes on to their peers: I guarantee you this thread won't get much traction and views. No gist, no tribal enflaming, no gender-baiting, nothing about Random-Nigerian-Vacuous-Celebrity. Who wants to read that?? grin Even your peers mock you for being an "I-too-know".

It ends with Society: We love degrees in Nigeria. But ask these degree holders to explain what their degree taught them and how they applied it to real-life situations and you'll realise how little they genuinely know. Which is why all of them assumed Mrs Aisha Buhari opened up her coffers to donate that amount of drugs to IDF camps, instead of most likely she and her team lobbied pharmaceutical firms and pushed NGOs into making up the bulk of that donation.

Our society doesn't reward Intelligence and Critical Thinking, and hates Responsibility.

Add all these together= typical Nigerian graduate.
Succinct, apt description and well put. More ink to your pen.

Dont backtrack
I quoted you
The strength of an article is based on who published it and how many citations it has
I have articles out there so I am telling you how it works
You talked about research gate being the publishers instead of a peer reviewed journal
If you knew it was published by JOG you should have also known it is a well respected and reputed peer reviewed journal so your assertion earlier would be mute.
It's always noble to admit to ignorance when you are not knowledgeable in a field
Your responses here show you aren't
You don't know everything so don't pretend that you do
As for sample size,the journal wouldn't risk their long standing reputation and publish a study with poor design
You are nobody to critique that article
Initially, I only read the abstract you posted without the link. And I later read the link before I saw the journal that published it with factor of 0.6. If explaining the word publish in context is backtracking, I hear you. I am registered with researchgate, I know the site.

Yes, 0.6 factor is good but it is median/average journal so it can publish this finding.

There is no point in time I laid claim to be an ocean of knowledge and wouldn't at no time claim so. There are many things I don't know.

I am nobody to fault the opinion of some author but I am somebody enough to challenge crudely put research in order to get academic point.

Thank you

You are still arguing
My brother it was published in the journal of obstetrics and gynecology
Research gate doesn't publish articles ,it is a sort of network that features research articles published by journals

Talking about impact factor of 0.6,it is now clear you have never published a paper
I have published a few
You have no clue
My reference to publish does not mean publish as per publication. Probably should have used can post any article.
And I saw where it was published.

The discussion is not about whether I have published a paper or not, it is about the sample space used.

I'm not surprised at result of this survey. when they believe it is their God-given right to be polyamorous and hardly ever go for medical check-ups, how will they know if an std without symptoms is ravaging their insides turning them sterile or almost sterile.
Does your husband believe it is his God-given right to be polyamorous?
Does he go for check up?

If the answers to the questions are no and yes, I guess your assertion is flawed.

Yes, some men tow the path of your opinion but majority do not. The majority cannot be judged on the opinion of the few.

If I have time after church, I will dig up a study done in the Southwest before 2003 which contradicts the conclusion of the research posted here. The study opined that women are more and at higher risk of infertility than men. Like my position on this, I faulted their methodology.

If the SW study concluded on female infertility with few sample space, SE study concluded on male infertility with few sample space, can you understand what I am driving at?

Samples should be collected across the geopolitical zone to understand different geographical causes of infertility in arriving at a conclusion. The men of South East may be at higher risk of infertility compared to men in the North, Southwest and vice- versa. The females in the North may be at higher risk of infertility compared to other zones due to geographical and environmental reasons. Until data are taken across board, I am sorry that the authors cannot lay authoritative claim to their conclusion.

And I maintain, for this type of study, the space used is not enough.

Try getting research gate or pubmed to cite your articles
They don't deal with kwe kwe journals



Do you even have a clue what you are saying?
It doesn't get any more peer reviewed than that
Impact factor 0.6, I understand.

Research gate can publish any written article including conference presentation. It doesn't matter whether it is an A class or C class article. I know nothing about Pubmed aside reading one or two stuffs there.


Like I said, I hold no fault against the conclusion of the authors for their small sample space but the space is too small to arrive at a determinant conclusion.

If you understand the scientific process, you will understand what I am driving at. The space used is not enough to make their finding a theory, we can only call it an hypothesis as it is.

I am not interested in the gender strife but the scientific process. Whether it is the men that are infertile or the women, I am not interested at this stage but the method of research.

Source: PubMed
ABSTRACT[b] Three hundred and fourteen Nigerian couples were evaluated [/b]thoroughly for the cause of their infertility in our clinics located at Nnewi and Awka in Southeastern Nigeria. Two hundred and four (65.0%) of them had primary infertility and 110 (35%) had secondary infertility.
For this type of study, the sample space is damn too small to reach any reasonable conclusion. Nigeria' population is an estimate of 180Million out of which I believe there are about 90Million adults who have reached puberty.

The study did not even take random sampling from all geopolitical zone to have an idea of other areas and see if there is an alignment. The study is flaw in its approach, though I can't fault the conclusion on the small sample space.

I guess it is why they put it on researchgate and not published in a peer reviewed journal. The authors need to do more if they are indeed doing an academic study.

That what you and I used to think but the reality staring us in the face proves otherwise

We have now learnt how to chop and clean mouth (without any psychological effect whatsoever) just like our "heads" taught us

Rehrased:They key is for all (men and women) to be wise in our dealings so we all don't bear the brunt of many things
The many sorry tales and stories that touch the heart betray this assertion. Microscopic few may seem to get away with it but most don't. The getting away with it is even temporary because the truth may be revealed years later.

Yes, I agree that both gender should deal wisely. However, the point of discussion is kicking against people advising others on what is not right and the advice they themselves don't follow.

@Kimoni,

My error, insert unfortunately and occassionally.

The society can punish men for every negative things they do but the physiological make up of the female put them to more psychological risk and pains.

The key is for the female to be wise in their dealings. Hence they get to bear the brunt of many things.

Well, the single ladies should take the evil counsel at their own peril.

No matter the equality pushed by some folks, the female gender will always suffer some consequences that nature fortunately make men go free.

Coming clean you sayhuh?... Who has it helpedhuh
It's only below average men that are interested in such nonsense.... What will it achieve to sit down with a man that there is no guarantee that he will be there till death do us part to tell him dirt's about my past...
Any man who can't handle whatever information you share is better to let go.
What you will gain from talking about it is because there is likelyhood that he will get the info outside and he will lose the trust, faith and love he had for you. It is not Hollywood movie.

Anyway the truth is that there is no man born of a woman that can handle my past.
1,I have sucked many unwashed ass holes...
2,I used to like been beaten before getting fhucked.
3,I love foursome a lot... I take on three guys at once..
4,I lost count of abortions but I ve two adorable kids to call mine now.
5,I ve repented completely.

Do you still think I should spillhuh
Another truth is that I know men who have handled worse cases than yours. At least you never lost your womb.

You need to first understand why you are going into a relationship and the purpose. Anybody in relationship irrepective of gender should be given the opportunity to make an informed decision. Some may not be able to handle it but some will. There is always someone for someone. I have learnt to always sleep peacefully at night by not withholding information that may cause me grief if found out.

And like I said in my previous post, if you know what you are doing is detrimental to future happiness or joy, why engage in it?
Family › Re: Things Your Fiancé/ husband Is Better Off Not Knowing. by bellong: 6:42am On May 28, 2015
Madam,

Coming clean is the right foundation for every relationship. There is nothing hidden that shall not be exposed, either now or later. It is better you suffer the shame early than suffer a lifetime pain of agony.

It is unwise advising people to keep secrets from potential spouse. If issues later happen, same people would blame the victim for not coming out clean.

You have aborted before in Japan and it affected your womb, because you married in Nigeria, you decided to keep it to yourself. Your end torture will be greater than if you had confessed.

In any relationship, honesty, sincerity and openness are the foundational keys to success. Anything outside these is deceit and the relationship becomes a disaster waiting to happen.

If you know that what you are doing may ruin your future relationship, why continue in it or attempt doing it?

I don't advise keeping shut. However, wisdom and discretion are the principal things.

@story one, what gives you the impression that your husband doesn't know about the sorry tales?

Please kindly advise.
I am sorry I have no reasonable advise to give you but I think I know how you can get a reasonable flight ticket to register your arrival for both countries.

If for example you want to leave in June, you can book a ticket to Toronto for June 16, 2015 (example) and from Toronto to Melbourne on June 30 2015 (example), this will cost you 480k. This is one the same ticket.

You could get it cheaper or more expensive depending on destination in these countries.
