obailala: How does rochas joining ApC amount to betraying his people?... because you love pdp or hate apc, you therefore want to forcefully impose your beliefs on everyone?... that's a pathetic mindset, rochas has a right to join or belong to any political party he wishes.
Oby has also been labelled a betrayer of her people by some nincompoops only because she chose to fight for the rescue of kidnapped kids; she's been labelled all sorts of unprintable names by ediots who are still angry with her because she dared to speak up against their hero gej. Oby certainly doesnt need her actions to be endorsed by these sort of lowlives. Her reward is definitely from above. You mean her disgrace?

MalcoImX: Cos you thought the other one is compensated because she isn't Igbo while the Igbo is left out. Elrufai compensated her sidechick for the job weldone and was later elevated higher by Buhari to NPA boss. While Oby was disgraced and humiliated. Check picture below

NgeneUkwenu: Everyday on Nairaland and Linda ikeji blog, Some Igbos make it a daily routine, to hurl insults on Oby Ezekwesili, calling her unprintable names they can find..
My question this morning is, what is exactly the Sin of this industrious Daughter of Igbo Land:
Has she insulted the Igbos in anyway?
Why Have some IGBOS Chosen Jonathan over her?
Is she corrupt? (Even she is, at least, Some igbos celebrate criminals)
What exactly is her sin? Think about it

x240: Oga. For every one innovation that made the headlines and succeeded. There are a million others that flopped.
The 3.5mm jack is a cross platform opening. You have it in car stereos, laptops, airplane dash board and other devices that produce music or sound. Car manufacturers won't ditch their designs just to accommodate Apple neither would consumers sell their cars and buy new ones just to be able to use iphones and listen to music.
For your information, the charging port on cars has been the same way since 1940s and they are still there till today. Same way people shouted about Apple charging ports (firewire) or whatever they call it when it came to the market 4 to 5 years back and claimed everyone would switch. Nothing of such happened.
Innovation is not about complexity.It is about simplicity. Apple just caused a conundrum with their move. You are making life inconvenient for users of your products and trust me you would lose them . Can you charge and listen to music? What happens if you are at an airport, your phone is low and your flight has been delayed by hours. So you have to wait till your phone fully charges before you can connect a simple earpiece.
Just even imagine. What happens to users of MacBooks? Do you have this lightning ports on them? How do you listen to music on your Macs then? You would buy a separate earpiecewith 3.5mm jac or carry adapter around just to listen to music?
What about listening to music in your car and charging? so i have to go sell my perfectly working car and buy one with wireless Bluetooth player before i can play music and drive while charging.
Ogbeni...Apple went too far and they know it. That's why you see all these their damage control articles trying to prop up the buyers and explain it away.
You guys just make mouth and talk as if apple products don't have their issues. ITunes is the crappeist media player you can think of in the market that keeps crashing. Same with when they push new updates. Instead of solving old problems . IOs updates are always creating new ones. But because most Nigerians don't actually use their phone optimally they don't notice.
As for the guy talking about html5. Your example is laughable. Technology is always inproving, especially software to enhance functionality. What Apple did is like removing mouse pointers on computers and telling users to use screentouch to work on laptops. Unclad truth. |

Guitarlife: Do you mean if the work was published in the page of a Nigerian University ? Then yes I did the research while at a Nigerian university and the Prof too is a Nigerian in a Nigerian school. Now, get to Dr. B or any other academics and ask them the implications for using such article but don't mention your name or Prof C but use an anonymous. |

Katyusha: Don't fight a battle you will never win. My alma mater U.I, is notorious for such cases. Most of these "scholars" become professors through tacit theft of projects by M.Sc and Ph.d students. They then make cosmetic changes to this projects and boom, they are giving innagural lectures with the same topics These are intellectual property bandits who specialize in notoriety. |
Education › Re: A Prof Has Plagiarised My Research. by Decibel: 8:20am On Sep 13, 2016 |
Kivaro: It looks like you are getting it all wrong and making a mountain out of a mole hill. In academics there is what we call co-authorship and co-authors have equal right to use a co-authored article or journal anyway they see fit, regardless of who is the main author. As long as Prof. C contributed to the article, even merely proof-reading and he is brought in (by Prof. B, without your permission - Prof B must have mentioned it to you and you are probably too busy or excited at the time) as a co-author, then he is a legit co-author. This is a standard practice even in the Western world.
Additionally,there are many different ways one can present his or her resume or Vita. For whatever reason, you may choose to highlight yourself more than any other co-authors when the purpose of the resume is to highlight your own achievements. Some might even decide to say Jay Fox and other co-authors without naming the co-athors. It is a moral judgment on the part of the presenter but there is no crime committed. The readers of the resume will pull the article cited and they will find the original authors on the paper as you correctly described.
If I understand the scenario you described, you did not say, that the article was republished only that Prof. C is only focusing on his achievements in a resume and not you in the resume. If you want to prepare your own resume, you can still focus on your achievements as well and make the articles available to interested readers. The way you present yourself in your own resume is independent of how another person might want to present himself or herself.
Now, if the article/journal is republished, then you must read the article and make sure that every word is the same as the original article, including the title. If not, it is another article/journal or a re-study of the original study. Sometimes, authors represent an idea from a prior article in a practice or industry journal without taking anything a way from the original article.
CAUTION: If you are in academics or you plan to be, you should thread very carefully before you lay any complaint. Academics is a small industry, and you don't want to burn bridges before you get a chance to cross them. Remember "IT is not what you want to do, rather it is what you have to do"
If I were you I would focus on publishing more powerful journals than to fight over this. It is a useless fight, believe me. Just came to approve and like your comment |
Education › Re: A Prof Has Plagiarised My Research. by Decibel: 8:12am On Sep 13, 2016 |
elhafeez: OP there is no issue hear as long as your name is in the paper he uploaded there is no problem. any one citing that paper would use your name and add et al while referencing the work. this is not plagiarism because he was one of the authors on the paper. In academic as not as your name is in the authors list you were part of the work. my thesis was published in a journal and my supervisors name was listed first. I didn't even add my second supervisor name to the list because infect he didn't contribute enough to the success of the research. the second jounal paper he added my HOD's name to my research and my HOD didn't do anything. I confronted him and he said that that's how we do in academics and help each other. since them he started giving me other researches to edit, contribute and correct for publishing. lesson Lernt: Next time when somebody didn't contribute enough to a research don't add their names while pubkishing. Nigerians like adding people name to journals and paper without any contribution to the paper. very soon Nigerians would add their family members name to academic papers .
