7. Women’s hearts beat faster than men’s.The main reason for this is simply that on average women tend to be smaller than men and have less mass to pump blood to. But women’s and men’s hearts can actually act quite differently, especially when experiencing trauma like a heart attack, and many treatments that work for men must be adjusted or changed entirely to work for women. Additionally, over a lifetime, at your normal (resting) heart rate you will have pumped enough blood to fill thirteen oil super tankers. To further expound on this fact, on average, your heart beats 40,000,000 times per year. Doing the math, over your lifetime (both men and women averaged), that results in 2,600,000,000 heartbeats (two billion, six hundred million). This does not even factor in your increased heartbeats due to your love of exercise or fear.


* The human heart creates enough pressure to squirt blood 30 feet. No wonder you can feel your heartbeat so easily. Pumping blood through your body quickly and efficiently takes quite a bit of pressure resulting inthe strong contractions of the heart and the thick walls of the ventricles which push blood to the body.


* Monday is the day of the week when the risk of heart attack is greatest. Yet another reason to loathe Mondays! A ten year studying Scotland found that 20% more people die of heart attacks on Mondays than any other day of the week. Researchers theorize that it’s a combination of too much fun over the weekend with the stress of going back to work that causes the increase.


* The most common blood type in the world is Type O. Blood banks find it valuable as it can be given to those with both type A and B blood. The rarest blood type, A-H or Bombay blood due to the location of its discovery, has been found in less than hundred people since it was discovered.

This Is hmmmm true coz I lost my Dad on a monday, died of heart attack.

He just wrote book and you asking us to read another.

You need to work on yourself. The writer of this thread has definitely worked on himself which is evident in his choice of words.

And may i remind you that it is only the strong that helps the weak. If one does not find his purpose, he cannot serve God or humanity effectively .

That's not a book he wrote, but an experience he learnt. Whereas the book I'm talking about has sold 32million copies and its #1 Newyork times Best selling author. 32million people agree with that book, read it then compare it to the OP"s Life experience.

I'm sorry to say op but that is not the purpose humans were created. You need to read "purpose driven life" by Rick warren. We have just two purpose in Life.
1) Our service to God
2) Our service to humanity.
Even if u are an established doctor or engineer or whatever, and you have in no way served humanity, you didn't impact in the lifes of others. You didn't achieve your purpose on earth. All religion and even scientist believe there is a supreme being, whatever name you call this being depends on your religion. But as chrisitians, have reverance to God by living a moral life and leave your footprints on mother earth by impacting peoples life. Dts all bro, dats all you need to make Heaven. That's the purpose for our existence. Its not rocket science! Shalom.

I don't seem to understand why youguys are happy. Cash reserve ratio was reduced don't mean theymade gain.
For example: zenith bank generates 1million pounds monthly and the cash reserve ratio was 30 then, it means zenith bank is allowed to keep Only 30% of the money with CBN which is 330,000pounds. If cash reserve ratio is now 25, it means bank now save more (400,000 pounds) how is this gain? Its just to tighten money supply and reduce inflation....am not an economist but this is my understanding of the topic!!!

I have long wanted to create a thread on this subject but thank God its here today.
There is a lot of ignorance on what actually goes on at the international airports and how it affects businesses especially importers.

The law states you have to declare any money above $10000, but strangely any cash declared above $10000 dollars is seized at the point of exit.

This is a direct consequence of the overzealous actions of the newly constituted presidential task force on currency trafficking at the airports.

Now am not talking because I heard from someone but because I've been a victim myself.

I normally source goods from Dubai for resale in Nigeria and have been doing it for over 5 years. For those who are familiar with Dubai travellers, you will note that most of us travel with cash as its cheaper and more convenient that transfers.

The normal routine is when i get to the airport, i declare the amount cos its always more than $10000 after which you are allowed to board.

What people don't realise is that the new CBN policy forbids payment of dollars into domiciliary accounts and also placed embargo on international transfers due to concerns about money launderers.

Now I was supposed to make my latest trip sometime last week but was unaware of this new task force guys.

Upon arrival, I declared the cash on me to the custom guys($54,000). I was then taken to a room upstairs where I was told I couldnt travel cos I have more than the allowed $10000. I asked why and they said it was an administrative change within. To my greatest consternation I was also informed my cash have been seized and that I wouldnt be allowed to make the trip cos I was under arrest and would be taken to the EFCC immediately.

I asked why that was the case since I declared on arrival and I was told the new mandate given to them from Abuja was to impound any cash above $10000 whether declared or not.

In fact we were four in total held for the same offence that day and everyone of us declared our cash on arrival but the cash was impounded and after some little delay we were all bundled to the EFCC office on Awolowo road Ikoyi.

As am speaking to you now my cash hasn't been returned as I was released on bail pending the outcome of their investigation. My business have been effectively suspended for the time being as I await their investigation which from information I gathered takes months to complete. Is this fair?

For those who wld want to accuse me of being a wailer pls go through my previous posts on nairaland to see I campaigned and voted for change but certainly not the type I witnessed or the one happening to me.

I believe businessmen need to speak out on what's happening to us at the airports else we risk losing our source of livelihood due to some draconian govt policies.

N/B
I have intentionally withheld some details in order not to compromise my case at the EFCC.

Na wa oo, my brother this your story is an eye-opener o. coz 1 of my parent also frequents dubai and is scared of being caught coz of the excess limit in possession. I was thinking why not declare it @ the airport, but with your story its a No No ooo....thanks for these your stori, its an eye opener! God go rescue u , every disappointment is a blessing comig soon!

This people don't know that igbos are wise.

I can still vividly remember how fashola demolished tejuosho market at yaba to build a shopping mall all in the name of Reconstruction.

It is almost 2years they have finished building and commisioned that tejuosho market. Infact, they have commisioned it 3 times, yet the place is empty, desolate and rottening. Make yoruba traders go collect the shop na. I always laugh anytime I pass there, you will see girls dancing while music is being played, begging igbo men to come collect shop.

Hahahahahahah!!! They should continue to demolish all the markets, no problem. They will demolish and demolish and demolish till they realize that there is no more revenue to collect.

I implore my igbo brothers to go start a huge motor parts market in the south-east were the whole of africa can come an patronise them, like how innoson located his motor plant in Nnewi. All this petty actions by the yorubas could turn out to be a blessing to Ndigbo at the long run, while they loose out totally.

Please, my people go to tejuosho market today... they are just paying security there for nothing, over 2years now. We don get sense.

Well tthe reason why the new tejuosho is still empty is due to rent. The shops are being leased out for 25yrs @ 7million naira. How many people can make that downpayment? It has nothing to do with Ibo being wise or not, if the state govt were renting the shops anually, the place would have been filled by now. Ask anyone u knw, its 7m for 25yrs. It has nothing to do with Igbo wisdom, na cash matter!!!

I laugh when people criticize Gambling whereas its done by virtually all of us.

So in otherwords you guys agree that ethnic diveristy is not doing us any good.

Nigeria has over 250 ethic groups, we speak over 200 diverse languages. The primary reason for language was to establish communication. Look around you, In politics, In your place of work, school, in the society around us in Nigeria, so much confusion because we cannot reach a common goal. We cannot agree in Unity, without screaming tribalism.
This problem has lead us to where we are today, our president cannot select people in his cabinet without pleasing people from diff geo-political zones, we cannot live and Invest freely without feeling unsafe and unsecure, we cannot let our sons and daughters marry freely outside our tribe and so many other wierd things and I want to ask is ethnic diversity indeed a blessing or curse to us?

In order words now is the time to invesst in fixed deposits noww....if the inter-bank lending rate is 16% and T.bills 13%, bank should be able to offer 12% o fixed deposit. #the smart ones will Invest, the dull ones will be busy complaining of the economy.....leggo!!!

Why does this kinda story always do with someone repairing a faulty car, na wa o! All this stereotyped stories sha, na wa o!

See all these ungrateful fellas complaining of speed. I have been a Blackberry users for years. And I nevr see MTN gimme download speed of more than 200kb/s.......the average speed MTN dey gimme me these past 1year both in lag nd anambra is between 50-100kb/s on H+ ooo......so if una see 100kb/s on visafone make una rush am oo....10terra byte no b here!!!

Chelsea fans be like (after falcao made it 1-1)...:......God this home match is a sure win, amen!

Most of y'all be talking about how courageous / bold step it is to be in the labour room. For me its a diff ball game, I'll be disgusted! The thought of seeing a kid come out of her bod will certainly have negative impact to me on our sex lives thereafter! So its a No

Its the quest for "feminism"...The gender equality is steady creeping into their minds and making them compete in a Marriage! #spot on bishop!

WTF! So because vec freestyles off da top for 2hrs he is better than M.I, HILARIOUS!!! One dude who I cud bet in a rap battle against VEC is PHENOM! A hungry spitter......M.I is one hella of a writer, he revolutionzed modern rap in Nigeria. How about "Mode 9" Isn't he king no more? This is like comparing 2pac vs canibus or comparing Nas vs Cassidy....Freestyle, Battle rappers are nothing compared with writers! #M.I still king!

Just 10-12million and you call that super rich? I think you are joking OP!

Will there be another mode of payment?

Who would have ever thought that mere paper, would be used as a medium for doing business. I mean money is just a paper,the reason its got value its because its widely acceptable by all & its scarce. Formerly humans used cowries or trade by barter as a mode of payment. With technology advancing daily and yearly, do you think paper money'll fade out and there would be a different means of doing bizness, another invention that'll be acceptable by all?
