₦airaland Forum

yamakuza: there is a [url=nairaland.com/tech]Science[/url] board

unfortunately, after all the hues, cries and hullabaloos, no one uses it.

Not even those that raised a ruckus!

I see but there are some activities or maybe they are specifically asking for a separate sub section like the phone section. Well i do not support creation of a new section if there are no activities eventually. I think admission to Nigerian schools should be separated from the main education section or moved to sub forum as it is just flooding everywhere with different schools stuffs. Education is more than just admission but it is basically only what is being discussed there right now and it needs to change. Maybe seun can create a thread where people can give suggestions as this thread was meant to present the new created sections.

Nairaland needs a full reorganisation and i would say it is better if there is a road map towards consistent changes. I don't know if there is any technical challenges in creating child boards but if there is non then allow for more sub forums. People have been asking for science board and still there is non at the moment but kudos for this anyway.

s this for real and if true then it is just too low and we need reformation in our movie industry. I believe professionals, educated and exposed experts need to come into this industry before it goes down finally to the dogs.

This imposition will not be acceptable in the long run as there are so many people seeking for elective posts in the country and its better for them to be defeated at the polls than to be schemed out through this means.

In actual reality the points of the op mirrors what happens in real life as toto is not free anymore in Nigeria and most ladies seek compensation for sex and relationship for various reasons.

While this move is commendable but am not so happy with the BRT stuff, don't they have this verification stuffs before employing them and how come they don't know the drivers license are expired already?.

I think it is everywhere, they just discovered over seven thousand in niger state and i think they should do this nationwide. Is there no way they can get those behind this ghost workers stuff and punish them appropriately?. They can start by punishing the people who approved the employment of those workers into the local government for a start.

We don't need movable infrastructure as a library can serve those purpose when in school and after school. In my local library here you can actually go to the library and borrow these devices for use inside the library. If you have to take the tablets back after the students passes out then you defeat the purpose of the whole thing.

This is a misplaced priority in my opinion as international organisations already took care of all these tablet or laptop stuffs. We have the classmates pc's and one laptop per child program which they could actually partner to do stuffs like this. Why start this from scratch when you can partner and customize this stuff to suit whatever stuff you want for the students in osun state.

We need modern libraries in schools and at strategic locations around the state, also they need modern equipped schools with computer labs, technology labs and other skill acquisition programs or systems. Upgrade the quality of the teaching staffs, update the curriculum to meet international standard and turn the focus from result orientation to actual learning and productive outcomes. We need our students to be able to apply the education they have got, lots of practical stuffs and not just passing exams.

I don't see the benefit of these tablets if it is just for reading exam materials that can be provided by cheap eBook readers instead. We need new forms of teaching, learning, assessing and evaluating our students with a very structured approach to restructure our education system. I don't really like this gesture and i don't know where this idea is coming from because even kids abroad do not use this stuffs.

Business, apartment and wife.

I think you should sit him down to explain the dangers of carrying your little child on okada without helmet. Both of you need to sit down and discuss possible alternatives in transporting this child to school everyday as the present situation is not comfortable.

It mostly centers on the thought of not feeling cheap and the man should do the chasing ( calling and spending ). It is not right because the communication should be both ways and unfortunately this habit gets carried over to proper relationship most times.

As long as both of your are ready to move on with life and especially her not to go back to her vomit. I would not say i will go ahead or not but sometimes you might marry someone and start hearing tales about their past. I would like those who have commented to tell us the difference between knowing before getting married or knowing after getting married?.

ritchboy: Focusing too much on not giving the ball away is what ruined Barca against Chelsea. Managers have become more adept at playing possession teams. In fact i have a strong feeling Spain will be one of the biggest flops at the Euros with their nonsense formation.

Holland is already flopping with this same two holding midfielder mentality and hope they make something with vander vart coming in for de jong.

This is the analysis of the Spanish 2008 squad where they clearly explained why spain do not need two holding midfielders or two strikers.

http://www.zonalmarking.net/2010/02/23/teams-of-the-decade-7-spain-2008/

ritchboy: Bontee is just saying what I've been telling Coogar and co for the last four years:

CM: Xavi > Cesc
AM: Cesc > Xavi

If Spain are going to be playing with two holding midfielders(Xabi/Sergio), Cesc(or even Silva/Iniesta) is clearly a better option behind the CF but Xavi will obviously "pull rank" on them. The end result is lots of possession with little cutting edge which Cesc and co woulda revved up.

Ideally Xavi should play alongside one of Busquets/Alonso cos he's still the best at what he does in that area of the park.

Thank you so much for summarizing what i have been trying to pass on to cougar and chic2chimp as i was not saying xavi should sit on the bench if it is only one holding midfielder. Aragones in 2008 never used two holding midfielders when spain went on a 35 match unbeaten run. Spain started using two holding midfielders at a point during debosky tenure and they have suffered for it greatly. So revert back to one holding midfielder ( alonso or busquets) xavi and iniesta in front of him and any front three configuration.

Pique and ramos do not see eye to eye, alonso and busquets also do not see eye to eye and xavi have been talking trash about mourinho lately. Arbeloa is trying to tell us that there is no tension in the team when there is clearly one between barca and real madrid players. Play ramos in right back, pair pique with javi and alba on the left, then put two of silva,pedro and carzola on the wings then torres upfront.

[quote author=~Bluetooth]and what is so special about may 29 ? [/quote]After you tell us the reason we should have june 12 as democracy day when we already have may 29, then i can let you know my own opinion.

lanetrips: If truly jonathan wants to honour mko,he shd declare june 12 as democracy day and nt renaming unilag

How is June 12 more significant than may 29 as democracy day for all Nigerians?.

bukatyne: dear, i'm not lamentin from d side, i'm wondering from d front! lol! i just wondered where greed entered d woman's actions! if d man felt building a house in his name only is right then y did he seize her documents? i wonder wat such couples used their courtship for anyways! didn't dey plan d amount of houses, cars, type of investment, no of kids etc they would have? i don't support a wife/husband having personal/private investment. it is not because de don't have d right to but because they re one and must do everything together and make all plans/decisions together! take care

Though greed is actually acquiring material wealth excessively beyond what someone actually needs and when i related it to her. I meant she wants to acquire material wealth beyond what she needs without working for it or actually needing it ( Greedy and selfish ). if she needed her own house, investments or properties then she would have done that herself ( or jointly with her husband ) instead of waiting for such incident before doing that. But in this case it is not, the husband builds a house, she wants out of it, the husbands builds a farm she wants out of it by giving him 50k.

I am not against couples doing things jointly or doing it personally, every couple will actually define and agree to what suits them best. I am of the opinion that it is not compulsory and if they both want to have personal or private investments then discuss it or whats the danger in having one?. Like you i feel they did not discuss much before actually getting married but on this issue the man said you cannot have private investments and she agreed to that. So why go back on your earlier agreement without discussing it first with the husband?.

May 29 is aready regarded as democracy day so whats the point of this, they can make it a remembrance or memorial day for abiola though.

bukatyne: did i read dis post correctly re u saying wat i think u re sayin? it is well

Why don't you state what is not right with my post instead of thinking everyone has to go with your own interpretation of the matter. We are all different way of thinking and engaging with other people with their ideas helps to expand your understanding of life. You are free to discuss as it is a discussion thread or keep on lamenting that it is well from the side.

Sagamite: You are a mooron!

And what would you be then? . . .

Sagamite: If he knows he does not want her to own a share out of the house, why can't he start paying her back her 300K?

Did she ask for her money back or is she not the one that gave it out of freewill? So helping your husband with that money entitles you to a share of the property which has been a personal project from the onset?. If she wanted a share of the property then make that known to the man at the point you are giving him the money and not leaving things to assumptions.

Sagamite: And she is the one greedy, selfish and inconsiderate? Anuofia!

Yes because she is trying to reap where did not sow as i doubt if the 300k makes even up to 5% of the total cost to build the house.

"Happiness is a decision you make...

Not an emotion you feel...

Whatever situation you are facing now...

slimyem: no,she wasnt expecting a return of the money.
The husband didnt ask her either.
He had been complaining about how he needed money to add to what he has to roof the house and she offered a part of her contribution thinking'at least the house is ours not just his' only to find out otherwise.

If she wasn't expecting it in return then it means she gave out of freewill and she should not be concerned about the ownership of the property. It is either you give loan, give out money and state you want a share of the property or give freely without expecting anything in return.

The man took her 300,000 which he added to what he already had to complete just the roofing of the property and not about the whole property. Hope the woman knows the man spent money to buy that land, buy building materials, pay for logistics, make the foundation, build the whole house until it got to the roofing stage. So you mean contributing that 300,000 naira entitles her to own a fifty percent stake in that property?.

Please tell her that she is greedy, selfish and inconsiderate with her reaction to what the man did and she is at fault here. She agreed with the man earlier not to own her private investments or properties then why go to his back to do that because of this. If she is pissed off and wants to own her personal stuffs, then have a discussion with your man about it. You can have your way there in owning your personal stuff or quit the union if he still insists that the status quo must hold. She agreed to that rule when she kept silent during the time the man made that pronunciation.

They both have communication issues, so they better sit down right now and discuss these family issues before they get to the point of no return. Now for the man seizing her document or property, he has to cough that out eventually if she is my sister and she actually used her money to do that.

^^^

Please read what people has been posting here on this thread, a woman has right to own her own property. Let her discuss it with her man and that's it, i don't know why people still want to do it the traditional ways. There was a time it was totally right, legal and possible for women not to own properties but not this modern times when she even works for her own money.

Reference: That's what am saying, is it a loan, when will it be paid back, at how much interest.... ehm, ehm. Darling can I declare you insolvent if you can't pay, darling maybe I need to call the EFCC.

Poster are we talking about man and wife, M&A lawyers or Underwriters because the story is losing its clarity.

Clearly greed is the pervading threat to every modern union and that's why most are as short termed as 5 year bonds.

We are on the same wavelength and the answer to that question is very important before giving a very good and unbiased reply. I don't know if you saw the posters response before your third sentence as it clearly points to the results of my analysis. It was clearly greed, selfishness and trying to reap where you did not sow that led to her betraying the man which resulted in the present predicament.

maclatunji: I have practical experience of what whoever gets this job will face. The Islam for Muslims section was attacked by a spammer yesterday with a single post on multiple threads. Ideally, if I deleted one, all should have been deleted automatically because I had it marked as spam. However, I had to delete each and every post (mark as spam). This is for one child board. Imagine what it will be like for someone trying to control spam across the entire site. You and that person will fight eventually fight because spammers will still be here after employing them. You need to trust your moderators more and stop bypassing them when you want to take decisions, that's not-so-good management.

Even the owner of facebook has to give way to a management team to take over the actual running of facebook and see what we have today. This one man business approach is not good for nairaland and i don't know why there has not been cohesion, joint planning and decision taking system in managing this site.

That is what i told semyd4life that it was strange for me to see moderators coming here to indicate interest as this is something that should have been trashed inhouse before coming up here. There is no way you can moderate for free for so many years ( That female moderator from italy has been doing that ) and suddenly you want to start paying the new ones for fighting spam. It shows lack of appreciation for the work done by the present moderators.

I still repeat that no forum is greater than it moderator, users, partners and managers, seun should thread wisely. It is not really about the money because i am aware that most of these mods are working class so they can take care of themselves.

chic2pimp: How do you mean by behind the ball?....... Xavi might be slower than Fab pace wise but his football intelligence surpasses whatever Cesc can muster.
When last did you see Xavi loose a midfield battle?.... You can't remember can you?.
Xavi is simply the heart beat of that team. He makes them tick.
Abeg Fab should stick to competiting with the likes of Silva,Pedro for the one remaining spot in that team.

I mean he cannot make forward runs or play (individually ) better than the other midfielders into the 18 yard box of the opposing team. Every spanish midfielder is intelligent in their own way and proved beyond doubt that they can produce results with it. mata did it with chelsea, silva did it with man city and carzola did it with malaga. So the point is about winning the midfield battle or winning the match and trophy , i am sure they won the midfield battle against chelsea but still chelsea went through them to win the champions league.

You still are not getting my point, i don't have problems playing xavi and iniesta in the middle with any defensive midfielder. When you put two holding midfielders in the team ( alonso and busquets ) then he is handicapped and in my opinion not needed, so fabregas or someone else should fill in for him. He doesn't play behind two holding midfielders in barca so why put him in that condition with spain?.

Yes Spain can not win another tournament.
Without the likes of Xavi,Iniesta and Villa spain would still be regarded as the great underachievers of world football.
Or do you think it is just a coincidence spain's recent run of success happened to be at a time when the Likes of Xavi,Iniesta and Villa were at the peak of their powers?
If it is how comes they haven't won anything in Donkey years even though they boasted players like Raul,Morientis,Mendieta,Hierro,Luis Enrique et al?

During euro 2008 casilas, senna, xavi, iniesta, silva, torres and villa contributed alot to spain in winning that competition. During the worldcup casilas, villa, fabregas, navas,iniesta and xavi contributed to them winning that competition also. In both competition the only barcelona players there would be xavi and iniesta as fabregas and villa would join the team after that. It is a team work effort and not about one or two players, they won two friendlies without these players so they are capable of winning trophies without them.

busquets is the most important player in spain. he's the only outfield player
who completed all the minutes spain played throughout the world cup under del bosque.
if you don't understand what busquets bring to the team then you don't understand
football. without busquets, forget playing xavi and iniesta then and go with the
alonso, mata, silva.

Yaya toure played with the same xavi and iniesta so what is the point again? So if busquets becomes injured then there is no need for javi, alonso, valero or bruno to partner xavi and iniesta as they can just both go and warm the bench right?. Is there any alarm in going with the other spanish players or did they not win two friendly matches comfortably without the barca players and no complain from the coach. The same coach complained about the style of play when these same barca players came back to the spanish team in the friendly against china. Every dam player contributes something to the team and no one is more important than the others or too big not to sit on the bench.

if it ain't broke, don't fix it.....
tiki taka won spain the last 2 major competitions and you think
playing upstarts should be the plan?

Where did i say spain will not play tiki taka? i said the players to be used in the first team should not always be favored towards barca and they should not go full tiki taka because some of those players play with a different style in their various clubs. The same upstarts won two friendly matches comfortably while the main team could not beat china easily. I am still asking you the question that, did this spanish team without the barca players play tiki taka to win the first two friendly matches?.

xavi should sit on the bench? where did zonal marking reference you cannot play alonso,
busquet and xavi in the same team? can you mention any match in the world cup where these
3 players did not start?

Playing these three players is why Spain plays so slow and not so inspiring at the worldcup where they were winning one zero.

This is what you asked for http://www.zonalmarking.net/2012/06/06/euro-2012-preview-spain/

i am not sure if one should take you serious.
silva and mata ahead of the barcelona midfield?
please, discuss something else.

You should keep it civil or stop the discussion if you cannot respect people having a different opinion from yours. I did not say silva and mata will replace the barca midfield, i said they should both be considered before pedro and fabregas in the first team except when spain wants to stretch the play with pedro ( i prefer him to navas ). If barca goes with two holding midfielder then i would prefer fabregas to xavi in the first team for his better forward play contribution than xavi.

chic2pimp: Drop Xavi, the Greatest Central Midfielder of the last 30 years?.......And who should start in his place, Fabregas?

Also drop Busquets, the most tactically astute Defensive Midfielder in the world?....and as I asked before who should start in his place, Alonso?

I'm not sure you watch spain frequently bar the odd friendly match cuz if you did you'll know the Barca midfield trident of Xavi,Iniesta and Busquets are INDISPENSABLE

I still stand that he should be dropped if they go with two holding midfielders because he will be out of his usual barcelona position and will always be behind the ball, so why not include fabregas that can go forward more than him?. If spain goes with only one holding midfielder ( alonso, busquets or javi ) then he definitely should play alongside iniesta to mirror their barcelona positions.

So if those three players become injured like david villa then spain cannot win any tournament or they will play for spain forever?.

Can you imagine

As usual goodluck only is to be blame for this.
