geez*:
Can you confirm the figure? How stupid

Maybe I should break it down for you:

75 out of 1000 children that are born never survive (Age=0yrs, which forces down the average life expectancy)
0.3m children die of malaria each year (now this excludes all other diseases)
When you factor these, child mortality is high forcing down the average life expectancy. My grandparents all lived to be over 80yrs but this doesn't mean there arent a lot more people who never got a chance to see their grand kids, never got to see their kids, never got to start school, never got to suckle their moms. Our healthcare is poor and people die for the smallest of reasons

well said, a lot of indices affect the life expectancy figures.

is there a problem with that?

Beync: it was 2days ago.



Babes we need to pop drinks, its fridaaaaaaaaay! Obinoscopy must drop champagne for ladies tonight . Should I go and hold him?

them ban you Before?
@topic do you need a ride?

wanted to ask about the possibility of getting a nexus 10 sire.

Fhemmmy: I will be able to sell at 5 digits soon

fingers crossed.

really hoping it gets to 5 digits soon

Fhemmmy: I cant get you a NOTE2 for 115K Naira . . . BTW, i have one Note1 in Nigeria now and willing to sell for only 68K Naira

perhaps i'll wait a lil longer . Gracias though

how do we get rid of the damn thing?

Chuck D: nairaland has just edited the second word in that nickname mchewww... ok then. smart guys in the house should figure it out.out.

in your face
@topic ferret

Fhemmmy: For now, i cant match the price for Note2 at the rate SLOT is selling . . .

how much higher?

Shugamania: ..been around, havent been online much though.
And the kind names wey i dey see just dey crack me up.. Lmao @ kpokpo garri and booblemooglie

@topic, see-phonetics.

Betty Mae Shelton welcome
@topic Oralee

Fhemmmy: Lol . . . when you ready to get an S3 come and talk to me and will get you the best for less from Canada

can i contact you too for a note 2?

Olamyyde: Minion: ur foolishness, a blasphemous painting of obama with a thorn on his head has been made
Hades: minion, dont u learn frm history, christains reduce d populatiön of pple coming here on a daily basis, if it were muslims, they would have started protesting and bombing places increasing the people dat come to dis pit by 50,000 pple per second. Red mosquito what do u have to say about this
Red mosquito: ur scarfulness, how do u expect me to say anything wen some1 else is recording what we are saying

LMAO

people dull sha. Mods rename the thread please.

4llerbuntu: better buy the one at 88k.

believe you me, there is NO DIFFERENCE no matter where u buy in lagos.

same goes for the note 2, right? 94k in slot

He doesn't have an S3

Oahray: Siphilis (whatever that means)

it doesn't mean anything
@topic pallor

joanana: I went to Samsung office and asked for Red Samsung galaxy s3, its sold for 120k while the pebble blue is sold for 98k. i told them that slot sells s3 pebble blue 88k n they were surprise n now m really confused.

Hmmm, why would that be? Shady deals?

i thought so ab initio

toluene12: circumcision is a surgical procedure and whatever method used, the foreskin is excised. Since the male organ is innervated, removing the foreskin is painful. For adults the procedure is performed under general anesthesia, however for neonates topical anaethetic agents may be applied prior to the procedure. But this topical agents normally irritates a neonatal skin, thus its not encouraged. The baby feels the pain and he's irritated for a day or two otherwise he's is okay if properly done.
Non therapeutic circumcision is controversial in western nations and that may explain the difficulty in assessing a health facility to perform the procedure in the U.K.
However, circumcision has its benefits, it prevents UTI, reduces the risk of having STI includng HIV, and cancer of the penis.

penis ca, . This nairaland word substitution thing isn't funny at all

ACM10: You are right Centje. But, how can you explain "bleeding to death"? Even if there was an amputation of the penile head; the child would still have survived.
I think that blood clotting disorder should be fing.ered as the possible cause. If we probe further, we might get a history of bleeding disorder in the family.

the pathologists should confirm

Sweet Swan . Where have you been?

Imagine landing on the moon or Mars, putting rocks through a 3-D printer and making something useful -- like a needed wrench or replacement part.
"It sounds like science fiction, but now it's really possible," says Amit Bandyopadhyay, professor in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Washington State University.
Bandyopadhyay and a group of colleagues recently published a paper in Rapid Prototyping Journal demonstrating how to print parts using materials from the moon.
Bandyopadhyay and Susmita Bose, professor in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, are well known researchers in the area of three-dimensional printing, creating bone-like materials for orthopedic implants.
In 2010, researchers from NASA initiated discussion with Bandyopadhyay, asking if their research team might be able to print3-D objects from moon rock. Becauseof the tremendous expense of space travel, researchers strive to limit what space ships have to carry. Establishment of a lunar or Martian outpost would require using the materials that are on hand for construction or repairs. That's wherethe 3-D fabrication technology might come in.
Three-dimensional fabrication technology, also known as additive manufacturing, allows researchers toproduce complex three dimensional objects directly from computer-aided design (CAD) models, printing the material layer by layer. In this case, the material is heated using a laser to high temperatures and prints out like melting candle wax to a desired shape.
To test the idea, NASA researchers provided Bandyopadhyay and Bose with 10 pounds of raw lunar regolith simulant, an imitation moon rock thatis used for research purposes.
The WSU researchers were concerned about how the moon rock material, which is made of silicon, aluminum, calcium, iron and magnesium oxides, would melt, but they found it behaved similarly to silica. And, they built a few simple shapes.
The researchers are the first to demonstrate the ability to fabricate parts using the moon-like material. They sent their pieces to NASA.
"It doesn't look fantastic, but you canmake something out of it," says Bandyopadhyay.
Using additive manufacturing, the material could also be tailored, the researchers say. If you want a stronger building material, for instance, you could perhaps use some moon rock with earth-based additives.
"The advantage of additive manufacturing is that you can control the composition as well as the geometry," says Bose. In the future, the researchers hope to show that the lunar material could be used to do remote repairs.
"It is an exciting science fiction story,but maybe we'll hear about it in the next few years," says Bandyopadhyay. "As long as you can have additive manufacturing set up, you may be able to scoop up and print whatever you want. It's not thatfar-fetched."
