TV/MoviesRe: What Was The Last Movie You Watched - Part 2 by daylae(m): 1:43pm On Nov 28, 2011
Sleeping beauty(2011)- quite simple. . .but with a confusing in-between ending.

Arena(2011)- dubious story,but 'll give it 4/10 for action and gory.

The help(2011)- a typical account of what black americans faced as second class citizens in the hands of thier white masters with their superiority complex and paranoia even after the stage is set for a new america where all are equals.

FamilyRe: Woman Refuse Chemotheraphy,choosing The Life Of Her Unborn Child Over Hers. by daylae(op): 12:24am On Oct 19, 2011
She began to tell Ray of her
growing concerns. 'I'm worried
about this baby,' she said in one
text, according to the
Oklahoman. 'I hope I live long
enough to have this baby,' said
another message. 'Bubba, if
anything happens to me, you
take this child.'
Stacie was no longer with the
father of the baby and would
have raised her daughter as a
single mother if she survived.
At her family's encouragement,
Stacie visited a number of
doctors and in July, a CT scan
revealed that she had head and
neck cancer.
Emotional: The moment Stacie
was able to meet her baby
daughter before she passed
away. Also pictured are her
siblings Ray and Elizabeth
Tiny: Dottie Mae was delivered
four months early by Caesarean
section, weighing just 2lbs 1oz
She had to do what no would-be
mother should have to - choose
between her life and that of her
baby's. It was an easy decision.
Ray told the Oklahoman that his
sister waived the potentially
lifesaving chemotherapy in the
hope that she would eventually
hold a healthy baby in her arms.
Then on August 16, Stacie
collapsed at her home in Ryan,
Oklahoma and was rushed to OU
Medical Center in Oklahoma City.
Doctors said the invasive tumour
had begun wrapping around the
brain stem, the Oklahoman
reported.
Two days later the baby's heart
rate plummeted, then Stacie's
heart stopped. Code Blue was
issued. Doctors and nurses
rushed to her aid and decided a
C-section was the baby's only
chance.
Dottie Mae arrived into the world
weighing less than a third of an
average newborn. She was
swiftly taken to neonatal
intensive care, while her mother
was placed in intensive care in
another building.
'Sister was dying right there. She
was gasping,' Ray told the
Oklahoman. 'The human body
fights death.'
Stacie fought back and managed
to wrestle herself off the
ventilator and sedation after a
few days. 'There was still a lot of
hope at that point,' said Ray's
wife Jennifer.
Loving mother: Dottie Mae was
able to meet her mother before
Stacie died three days later on
September 11
Part of the family: Stacie's
brother Ray Phillips has taken
Dottie Mae into his home with
his four children after the
baby's father left his sister
But the cancer had affected one
of her eyes and destroyed the
muscle behind it,
It had paralysed her throat so
that when she did talk, she was
hard to understand. She had
tumours on her brain. She often
became unconscious and had
not been able to sign Dottie
Mae's birth certificate.
Stacie was too weak to be taken
to her baby, and her baby was
too weak to be brought to her.
'We'd show her pictures and she
would cry and she would want
to hold her baby,' Ray told
NewsOk. 'It was quite the ordeal.
I felt helpless. I wanted to help
her, I wanted to do what I could
for her - we all did - but they had
told us it was impossible for her
to see the child.'
On September 8, Stacie stopped
breathing and once again was
resuscitated. Hospital staff
warned the family that she was
very close to death.
But she had not yet held, kissed
or looked into the blue eyes of
the baby whose life she had
chosen above her own.
Nurse Agi Beo, herself a mother,
could not bear to think of Stacie's
emotional pain and decided to
do something about it.
She worked with nurse Jetsy
Jacob and talked to Neoflight, the
medical centre's neonatal
transport team, about using a
capsule-like ICU to safely move
Dottie Mae to her mother.
Special unit: Dottie Mae had to
be transferred into an ICU
module so she could be taken
from intensive care to her
mother
'I knew all of this was going on
in the background and I didn't
say nothing to her until I knew it
was going to happen because I
didn't want to get her hopes up,'
Ray said.
He asked his sister what she
would would think about seeing
her daughter that day. Stacie's
eyes popped open and she
began looking around to find
her.
Soon the nurses arrived with
Dottie Mae and laid her right on
her mother's chest. The two
stared into each other's eyes for
several minutes.
'Nobody said anything, it got real
quiet,' Ray told NewsOk. 'I told
my sister, "You have done a
beautiful thing". It was the
perfect moment, that's what I
called it.'
Stacie died three days later. Her
funeral was on September 14.
Her obituary on the Dudley
Funeral Homes website reads:
'Dottie Mae was the light of her
life and her greatest
accomplishment. She chose to
give this baby life instead of
taking treatment for herself.'
Dottie Mae now lives with Ray,
his wife Jennifer and their four
children in their Oklahoma City
home
'I think she's a miracle. I just
want to do right by her and do
what Stacie asked,' Jennifer said.

HealthRe: Do Some People Really Have Their Heart At The Right Side Of The Chest? by daylae(op): 4:11pm On Oct 18, 2011
^thought so too. But until i searched.
Situs inversus (also called situs
transversus or oppositus) is a
congenital condition in which the
major visceral organs are reversed
or mirrored from their normal
positions. The normal
arrangement is known as situs
solitus. In other rare cases, in a
condition known as situs
ambiguus or heterotaxy, situs
cannot be determined.
The term situs inversus is a short
form of theLatin phrase "situs
inversus viscerum", meaning
"inverted position of the internal
organs".Dextrocardia (the heart
being located on the right side of
thethorax) was first seen and
drawn by Leonardo da Vinci in
1452–1519, and then recognised
byMarco Aurelio Severino in 1643.
However, situs inversus was first
described more than a century
later byMatthew Baillie.
The prevalence of situs inversus
varies among different
populations but is less than 1 in
10,000 people.[1]
Effect on anatomy
The condition affects all major
structures within thethorax and
abdomen. Generally, the organs
are simply transposed through the
sagittal plane. The heart is located
on the right side of the thorax, the
stomach and spleen on the right
side of the abdomen and the liver
and gall bladder on the left side.
The left lung is trilobed and the
right lung bilobed, andblood
vessels, nerves, lymphatics and the
intestines are also transposed.
If the heart is swapped to the
right side of the thorax, it is
known assitus inversus with
dextrocardia or situs inversus
totalis. If the heart remains in the
normal left side of the thorax, a
much rarer condition (1 in 22,000
of the general population), it is
known assitus inversus with
levocardia or situs inversus
incompletus. Situs inversus with
levocardia, or dextrocardia
without situs inversus, present
much higher rates of congenital
defects than situs inversus with
dextrocardia.

Christianity EtcRe: Islam Created By The Roman Catholic by daylae(m): 4:25pm On Oct 13, 2011
al-Ilah claims in
numerous verses that all Jewish
prophets are believers in Islam
and demands that those Jewish
prophets were ‘Muslims’. But the
problem here is that, al-Ilah did
not specify who those Jewish
prophets were, leaving his
believers in darkness forever.
There is no complete list of these
Jewish prophets in the Quran, let
alone the proof of their ever
being ‘Muslim’—that too, before
the Quran was revealed or
invented? Are those Jewish
prophets, not mentioned in the
Quran (but mentioned in the
Jewish/Christian scriptures),
were ever a part of al-Ilah’s
Scripture or were they just
figment of Muhammads’
imaginations or just hoax? How
did those Jewish prophets ever
know about al-Ilah or
Muhammad or Islam as a
religion, which would later on
come to the world. (Indeed, the
Quran did not exist until 786 CE,
154 years after Muhammad's
death in 632, when the Quran
was complied as a religious
book. see “The Invention of
Islam”). Moses and Jesus was
recorded by their followers/
Apostles, who lived with them
(and the Quran/al-Ilah have the
cheeks to claim the Bible is all
corrupted!!!); and there is not a
single acceptable historical
record of any Jewish Prophet(s)
of ever having been a Muslim.
Just a claim that they were
'Muslim' does not necessarily
make them ‘Muslim’, does it? It's
a silly, laughable claims at best;
the world must be wondering
why Islam makes such hideous
and preposterous claim on
Jewish Prophets like Abraham,
Noah, Moses, etc. These stupid
assumptions even astound the
Christians as well. Jews are so
passionate of their Jewishness
that the majority of them don’t
even accept Jesus as a Jew. This
is just because, Jesus tried to
reform Judaism by shedding
some of the barbaric Jewish
beliefs of the previous era, such
as stoning for adultery, which
Islam has blindly copied and
Muslims are following till today.
By copying those Mosaic codes,
al-Ilah and Muhammad had
thought that the Jews would
embrace Islam easily. But did it
happen or would it ever? It’s not
even remotely possible. All these
facts make it crystal-clear that al-
Ilah, Muhammad and the Quran
are plain and simple lies: Islam is
a completely fake. Period!

EducationRe: Muslim Students Denied Admission At Oyedepo’s Covenant University by daylae(m): 11:41am On Oct 03, 2011
Though a sad one,but the school notwithstanding has the right to deny admission base on such sensitive issue like religion as far as it is concerned. I know the document that specified the institution as a constituted private entity must've spelt out boldly such right, and that its a christian university,evidently born out of the church 'winners chapel. I don't think the school would want to fault their agreement with NUC and risk sanctions,so they must've known the action is still within their right.' And the fact that the applicant didn't clearly specify his religion is questionable and vindicates their action. Had it been a university like bells or okada,which do not operate base on religion sentiment,the guy surely wouln't have been denied on such ground.

There are muslim universities out there that strictly wouldn't allow christian intakes too. But the bottomline is still the issue of tolerance. With that,there wont be need for discrimination.

Christianity EtcRe: Science And Religion: The Unending Conflict. by daylae(op): 11:12am On Jan 30, 2011
Well,i see all have taken another dimension. . . But talking about psychics practicing strange mental powers deviod of natural laws;the practice of spiritism,divination,crystal gazing,astrology,pamistry,necronancy- the calling of the dead. All these things can not be examined through natural laws and through scientific scrutiny. Ironically,we also have science pundits whose convictions align with these strange practices too.

One might say all these things are just some bogus practices,but i think people still patronise them because they are very much conviced about them.

We may not be able to prove by logic that the supernatural exist or not,untill one experience a personal encounter,cus there is no such thing as an impartial observer of the supernatural. To investigate it is to be part of it,just as sure as you cannot investigate life  without being a part of it.

There will be no end in our quest for answers,being the insatiably curious species that we are,exploring,looking around and trying to understand things. We're not ever going to get it solved. I can't imagine any terminal point where everyone will breathe a sigh and will say,"now we understand the who thing." It's going to remain beyond us. But,i know that all things are more that its physical attributes. Unfortunately,that is what we lay our emphasis on.
Christianity EtcRe: Science And Religion: The Unending Conflict. by daylae(op): 2:32pm On Jan 28, 2011
If you do agree like you said that science is not the only way of knowing,then you can as well do me a favour by telling me other ways,if not religion.

And if you're saying science is the best way of understanding our universe,then can science prove or disprove any moral or aesthetic proposition. There is no scientific reason to love one's neihgbour or to respect human life. . . To argue that nothing exist which cannot be prove scientifically is the crudest of errors,which will eliminate everything we value in life.

The fact is that,you will hardly find one ammong the profounder sort of scientific minds without a religious feeling of his own.


And talking about proving the existence of the entity behind creation,you should note that we cannot prove this through the use of a microscope,telescope,or other scientific instruments. . . Think of a potter and a vase that he has formed. No ammount of examination of the vase itself can give an answer as to why he was made. For that,we must ask the potter himself. But the more we cogitate these without accepting that there are things that actually surpasses human comprehensions,we'll continue to wobble in further confusion.
Christianity EtcRe: Science And Religion: The Unending Conflict. by daylae(op): 1:49pm On Jan 28, 2011
thehomer:
Science is not a source of knowledge it is simply the best ways of acquiring knowledge about the universe. I never said it was the only way of knowing.


I'd say such a person is mistaken.

Then i take it you're a perfect being yourself.


I say science does not show this. If it did, belief would have no part to play because we would simply know this and act accordingly. I think you need to clearly demonstrate this master-creator as discovered by science.


Well,i don't agree with science when it says the world was created by chance(big bang); i'll rather believe creation all centered to one entity,cus mere chance would have brought about certain inconsistences.

This I disagree with on various levels. Humans have and use more than five senses. There are also the senses of temperature, balance, proprioception, pain and some other internal senses in addition to the five commonly mentioned.

All these still boils down to our five primitive senses. Without them we cannot function here


You are also simply claiming that religion deals with something more. I think you need to demonstrate this assumption.

You can't demonstrate this by mere classroom theory and analysis;and that's the problem. Religion deals with the essence of creation and the relationship to a creator.


The assertions made here need to be demonstrated.

The spiritual is the basis all realities. A carnal being solely rely on the physical;but a person who knows that there is more to the physical takes both advantages.


No religion does not answer this question. It simply asserts God. If I said the purpose of reality was a Quijibo does that answer anything? Science is the best way that we have of knowing about our universe so I'd give it priority over religion.

Religion actually answer the question. Only that you want to know everthing about a creator . . .

thehomer:
No. But he may be a mathematician because science is a quest for knowledge and an entity that already knows everything can no longer quest for knowledge.


It is fitting to have say that science is a quest for knowledge,however,you should also know that science involves a
way of knowing,it is not the only
source of knowledge.


Have you met or do you actually know someone who claims this about the working of the universe? I ask because quantum theory which has a lot of statistical basis somehow denies this. But, divine wisdom and faith really have no part to play in the workings of the universe (not humans). I think one seeks but the other has decided its truth and tries to fit whatever it can to this decided truth.


Yeah,because of our curiosity, we'll always seek. But there is a limit to our comprehension,lest we wallow in further confusion.

Really? Where?


Science shows that there is an entity behind the master piece of creation. It is left for individual to believe. . And that's where faith comes in.

Huh? Can you please explain what you mean here?


Science deals with our five adaptive senses in relating to the word around us;but religion deals even further. It transcends all carnal understandings.

Please let me know the limitations those without religion face.

A carnal being is not a spiritual person. As losg as there is a interlock between the physical and the spiritual,a carnal being is sure limited.


How is science without religion lame?

What's the essence of knowledge when it has no meanings and purpose of reality. Religion answers the question of "why" things came to exist,but science is just trying to know how. Which should take the most priority?
Christianity EtcRe: Science And Religion: The Unending Conflict. by daylae(op): 1:09am On Jan 28, 2011
Forgive me if am still maintaining that both science and religion do honestly complement each other. Have you ever wonder if God is a scientist himself? The myriad phasets of creation, and yet its coforming complexity and diversity still imply true basic and noble principles of science. I think what science is trying to do is to satisfy our curiosity,and also igninite the creative minds God gave us,by giving us insights into the physical universe. The problem started when we begin to mix facts with theories,and also seeing religion as a way of escaping rational and indepth thinking.

Some may claim that all the workings of the universe can be explained by rational analysis,leaving no room for devine wisdom and faith,which is the basis of religion,but there is no incompatability between science and religion. Both are seeking the same truth. Science shows that God exists.
I also know that many people in the fields of science and religion are not comfortable with the attempt to comprehend reality by looking to both science and religion;that science deals with the measurable, while religion deals with the immeasurable. This is quite true,b
ut religion without knowledge is easily misconstrued;while knowledge without religion is sheer limitation. Science without religion is lame,religion without science is blind.
