PoliticsFacts About The Country Libya... by dexpendable(op): 2:28pm On Jan 08, 2015
Please note that Libya is the 4th largest producer of oil in Africa. Nigeria is the 1st.

• There was no electricity bills in Libya; electricity
is
free … for all its citizens.

• There was no interest on loans, banks in Libya
are
state-owned and loans given to all its citizens at
0%
interest by law.

• If a Libyan is unable to find employment after
graduation, the state would pay the average
salary
of the profession as if he or she is employed until
employment is found.

• Should Libyans want to take up a farming
career,
they receive farm land, a house, equipment, seed
and livestock to kick start their farms –this was
all
for free.

• Gaddafi carried out the world’s largest irrigation
project, known as the Great Man-Made River
project, to make water readily available
throughout
the desert country.

• A home was considered a human right in Libya.
(In
Qaddafi’s Green Book it states: “The house is a
basic need of both the individual and the family,
therefore it should not be owned by others.”)

• All newlyweds in Libya would receive 60,000 Dinar
(US$ 50,000 ) by the government to buy their first
apartment so to help start a family.

• A portion of Libyan oil sales is or was credited
directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan
citizens.

• A mother who gives birth to a child would receive
US $5,000.

• When a Libyan buys a car, the government would
subsidizes 50% of the price.

• The price of petrol in Libya was $0.14 per liter.

• For $ 0.15, a Libyan local could purchase 40
loaves of bread.

• Education and medical treatments was all free in
Libya. Libya can boast one of the finest health
care
systems in the Arab and African World. All people
have access to doctors, hospitals, clinics and
medicines, completely free of charge.

• If Libyans cannot find the education or medical
facilities they need in Libya, the government would
fund them to go abroad for it – not only free but
they get US $2,300/month accommodation and car
allowance.

• 25% of Libyans have a university degree. Before
Gaddafi only 25% of Libyans were literate. Today
the
figure is 87%.

• Libya had no external debt and its reserves
amount to $150 billion – though much of this is
now frozen globally.

Not everyone gets to see a check for $975 million with their name on it. But after a highly
contentious divorce, Sue Ann Arnall is looking for more.
She rejected the check her ex-husband Harold Hamm sent her Monday, according to his attorneys.
Hamm agreed to pay the nearly $1 billion back in November. He's
somewhat of a legend in the oil business, having built Continental
Resources ( ) from the ground up and led the development of North Dakota's Bakken oil field.
But Arnall, an economist and a lawyer who held executive positions in the company, has said she is entitled
to more. She filed for an appeal, claiming that the fortune was due to both her work and his.
Arnall's attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The couple was married for 26 years, have two children and had no prenuptial agreement.
To make things even messier, Hamm himself filed for an appeal as well. He claims that with the dramatic
drop in oil prices , his company's value has taken a hit, along with his wealth.
Despite writing the check, Hamm will move forward with his appeal, his attorney Craig Box said.[img]Not everyone gets to see a check for $975 million with their name on it. But after a highly

Litmus:
Don't you see, just as the whites can make these claims so too can Africans for we are the origin of many things. From the African dug-out came the canoe; from the canoe came the ships just as Tunde's fictitious null gravity machine may owe its existence to a raft of others. Today, the are truly no single inventors if you're to look at it academically. Therefor it makes no true sense, if we're fare, to suggest whites invented and Africans did not. Inventions evolve from the works of many people of all races throughout the ages. The PC did not begin with the Babbage its origin dates to the advent of mathematics.
Do you understand me at all? I didn't say Africans didn't invent anything. All I said was the time when Africans were inventing, that was the period the NOW WHITES were still in Africa. And I'm taking a wide guess that they were responsible for those inventions even though they where still blacks when all these took place. It was their journey for exploration into the unknown that made turned their skin colours to white.. do you understand? This is just pure fact.
PoliticsRe: Africa, The Dark Continent! by dexpendable(op): 11:40pm On Jan 04, 2015

"she only coupled what YOU already had inside the house". Now she can't argue because you're the master and whatever you say goes...

the slave is the blacks
the master is the whites.

PoliticsRe: Africa, The Dark Continent! by dexpendable(op): 9:39am On Jan 03, 2015
And it's like you all are getting the argument wrong.
My point is everybody originated from Africa, along the line, some of those people decided to explore and check what was beyond them, they where the people that later became "WHITE"...

And if you're arguing that we the native blacks actually where the one who started inventing, then why did we stop inventing, then who are the white people exactly?
Please do find out!
PoliticsRe: Africa, The Dark Continent! by dexpendable(op): 9:36am On Jan 03, 2015
ROSSIKE:
You don't know what you're talking about. White people existed in Europe, living in primitive ignorance and illiteracy, holed up in caves, when blacks were building the pyramids of Egypt and Sudan, building mighty cities with huge temples in Thebes, Kerma, and Kush, advancing medicine, astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, architecture and economics. The white race emerged around 45,000 years ago. The advances made by black Africans, and which the world is benefitting immensely from today, are dated to less than 5,000 BC at the earliest. So it is utterly wrong to say they were no whites when blacks were the leading race on the planet. There were whites, and there were Indians, Chinese etc. The blacks were the leading race on earth because they were inventive, sharp, intelligent, and ambitious.

Also, the premise on which you placed your entire write-up was false, biased and antagonistic. You claimed:

''If you ask, " What's our problem in Africa" most people will say, oh, the Europeans, oh this oh that... The point is that we as Africans never take blame on ourselves.''

THAT CLAIM IS A CERTIFIABLE LIE. You're guilty of giving a dog a bad name in order to hang it. The vast majority of Nigerians and Africans, when you ask them what ''our problem is'', do NOT start complaining about ''the Europeans''. They blame their fellow Africans, their leaders, their political system etc. So the rest of your article is really not worth the read on account of your initial falsehood. I personally think you have a terrible racial inferiority complex which you need to get rid of prior to discussing these issues.

Dexpendable, you may not be observant enough. Your twist, while interesting, has its flaws, and is tortured. Those people hell bent on perpetrating the false notions of white racial superiority informed by resent (in the scale of human time scale on earth) technological innovations have long set up for themselves a robust counter to the argument that i put, having recognized this argument as a simple yet powerful counter to their cosy belief sets. They have yet to play this hand but it is clear that it is their Ace.

Here it is:

The claim that European and Asians have additional Neanderthal genes but Africans do not - grin Genius


Nevertheless, both this elegant argument-in-waiting and yours are desperate for they do not convincingly detract from the simply truth that humans are all inherently inventive and there are simply highs and lows in the chart of human evolution nothing is set in stone. In the words of our Nigerian forbears: Today, na you; Tomorrow, na me.
Well, what I was trying to say simply was that, those genes that you're talking about, where at a point equal, and everyone was equal, everyone was black and everyone was in Africa, but then, at a point, some out of those who were amongst the "everyone", decided that they needed to explore, leave where they where and see what's beyond them... They went out to Europe as black people, from Africa, with the same genes, of the ones who were still in Africa, but who have decided to do nothing on improving their own genes........

Your arguments about we developing language, and all sorts, where stuffs that where developed by "EVERYBODY", we where still together when all this happened, if you disagree with that, then you've to tell me what else we've invented apart from all those of the ancient past...
But if you agree, you'll understand that those inventions where actually done when everybody was still black, and everybody was still in Africa, before some of those Africans decided to explore.... We were all Africans!
PoliticsRe: Africa, The Dark Continent! by dexpendable(op): 3:55pm On Jan 01, 2015
Well, if we go back into ancient times, we would see that there was never a Europe, Everything was all about Africa, and nothing else, so that means, all of us where actually black before, and this is a proven fact, but amongst those black people, where some other black people who felt the need to Explore, and they went on, and on, because they were risk takers, and where explorers who seek inventions on how to make the world a better place for them... Meanwhile, some "Africans" where left, and, it is good to know that "WE ARE THOSE AFRICANS", the other ones that left are the white people, who after they went where faced by loads of challenges including weather, which turned their skin colour to white, so it is fair to say we all began together, but then as time went on, the men had to be separated from the boys, and that's the case we are in now...
So, all the inventions you where talking about, where done by everybody, but some people didn't continue the invention, while some did, and are still doing...............................................

PoliticsRe: Africa, The Dark Continent! by dexpendable(op): 2:56pm On Jan 01, 2015
10. The Plow - for Agriculture: Now looking at this invention, we can recall that this people actually enslaved us so we could make agricultural production faster, more efficient, and what did we do? We accepted the challenge to work, work and till the land and serve our gods...
What did the Europeans do? They invented the Plow. This means, we who were actually suffering did not even think of how we can make our work easier, instead, we enjoyed the process, at least we were in a foreign land... with accents flowing here and there...

9. The Wheel - for Movement: The wheel made the transportation of goods much faster and more efficient, especially when affixed to horse-drawn chariots and carts. However, if it had been used only for transportation, the wheel wouldn't have been as much of a world-changer as it was. In fact, a lack of quality roads limited its usefulness in this regard for thousands of years. Meanwhile, we actually enjoyed carrying those loads on our bare heads!

8. The Printing Press : The printing press allowed enormous quantities of information to be recorded and spread throughout the world. Books had previously been items only the extremely rich could afford, but mass production brought the price down tremendously. The printing press is probably responsible for many other inventions, but in a more subtle way than the wheel. The diffusion of knowledge it created gave billions of humans the education they needed to create their own inventions in the centuries since.

7. Refrigeration : The ability to keep food cold for prolonged periods (and even during shipping, once refrigerated trucks were developed) drastically changed the food production industry and the eating habits of people around the world. Now, we have easy access to fresh meats and dairy products even in the hottest summer months, and we're no longer tied to the expense of harvesting and shipping natural ice -- which never could have kept pace with the world's growing population in any case.

6. Communication : These developments in communications technology effectively shrank the world. In the span of about 120 years, we went from a world where it might take weeks to hear news from across the country to one where we can watch events occurring on the other side of the globe as they happen. The advent of mass communications put more information within our grasp and altered how we interact with each other.

5. Steam Engine : While the steam engine has been eclipsed by electric and internal combustion engines in the areas of transport and factory power, they're still incredibly important. Most power plants in the world actually generate electricity using steam turbines, whether the steam is heated by burning coal, natural gas or a nuclear reactor.

4. Automobile : The automobile's effect on commerce, society and culture is hard to overestimate. Most of us can jump in our car and go wherever we want whenever we want, effectively expanding the size of any community to the distance we're willing to drive to shop or visit friends. Our cities are largely designed and built around automobile access, with paved roads and parking lots taking up huge amounts of space and a big chunk of our governments' budgets. The auto industry has fueled enormous economic growth worldwide, but it's also generated a lot of pollution.

3. Light bulb : You might think the light bulb changed the world by allowing people to work at night or in dark places (it did, to some extent), but we already had relatively cheap and efficient gas lamps and other light sources at the time. It was actually the infrastructure that was built to provide electricity to every home and business that changed the world. Today, our world is filled with powered devices than we can plug in pretty much anywhere. We have the light bulb to thank for it.

2. Computer : If we only examine these grandiose uses of computers, we overlook how much we rely on them from day to day. Computers let us store vast amounts of information and retrieve a given piece of it almost instantly. Many of the things we take for granted in the world wouldn't function without computers, from cars to power plants to phones.

1. Internet : The Internet is such a powerful invention that we've probably only begun to see the effects it will have on the world. The ability to diffuse and recombine information with such efficiency could accelerate the rate at which further world-changing inventions are created. At the same time, some fear that our ability to communicate, work, play and do business via the Internet breaks down our ties to local communities and causes us to become socially isolated. Like any invention, the good or ill it accomplishes will come from how we choose to use it.

Now the question is what have we invented to change the world? Nothing, because we didn't invent corruption, or mismanagement of funds, everything came from the white people, because technically, we haven't started living our own lives as independent states and people but instead, we look up to "our ogas at the top", we are silent beings, who only complain underneath and keep our mouths shut outside.
PoliticsAfrica, The Dark Continent! by dexpendable(op):
Happy new year to all Nairalanders, we hope for plenty naira in our pockets this new year...
Today is a holiday, and I want to write an article on this our continent Africa through our dear country Nigeria.

If you ask, " What's our problem in Africa" most people will say, oh, the Europeans, oh this oh that... The point is that we as Africans never take blame on ourselves. Yes, we were enslaved, but has any body asked the question, why were we enslaved, what were the factors that the Europeans saw that got us enslaved? We were gullible, as Africans, as Nigerians, we were gullible in the past... Take for example, the Europeans came and deceived us, I mean who are the kind of people that can be deceived, that can be found gullible at any point in time? Yes, we are the ones, we Africans.. Where does all these begin from? We are our problems, everyone in Africa.. The truth is, as an African, how do we see ourselves? Who are we to the world? Are we really inferior to the whites? What are we capable of doing? Are we risk takers like the whites?

Naturally, we have a particular perception about ourselves, "We come to life to enjoy whatever life has to offer us, and when we are old, we start seeking respect and later die, and the cycle continues like that", but who are the whites? The whites are the bossy people, who can treat the blacks like animals, who can enslave the blacks, why? Because we see them as "LIFE", and we want to enjoy whatever they have for us. Why do blacks in the diaspora succeed? This is what I call the average success, I'm going to use myself as an example now....

"When I was young, probably in my primary school days, I had this uncle who was staying in the United Kingdom, and to be honest, I saw him as a god, even as a small child, why?
1. I saw him as someone who could provide almost anything I request for..
2. I saw him as someone who was closer to everything "oyinbo" I use to see on T.V then ...
I would request for things like playstation, psps, R.C planes[Cos I'm an aviation freak] and all sorts, this things where not available then like they are now in Nigeria.. My parents where rich, we where living comfortably but this my god must be worshipped.... That's the African mind.., anybody that we see who is at an higher level than us is seen as a demi-god.... Your boss for instance, can do and un-do, our Governors e.t.c and this is why when any of us, I mean any Afrcian who has the opportunity to be in power, almost if not completely misuses the power..
It must be remembered that the Europeans that were said to have enslaved us and caused all our problems, where actually the same people who taught us THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS because we have always acted as dummies.... Nigeria for example, do you know that the active rail lines routes in Nigeria today where actually built by the Europeans? Whatever good that have come out of any African country have always had a "White" involvement? Who brought education? Who invented the airplanes? Who brought about the currency?.... Let's quickly look at the top 10 inventions that have changed the world we live in today...

Science/TechnologyRe: Solar Technology And Inverters' Battery's And All Resources. by dexpendable(op): 12:26am On Dec 30, 2014
sorry for the late update guys.. As I'm posting this, I'm just getting home. .. Needless to say I already made a promise that had to be fulfilled. . Let's start from here..

Although some form of solar power has been available
for decades, the technology has only recently gained
mainstream acceptance and attracted the interest of
big-time utility companies. On a per-kilowatt basis,
solar power remains expensive relative to conventional
sources of energy like coal and natural gas.
Nevertheless, its overall cost continues to shrink at a
rapid rate. As solar power becomes an increasingly
important component of the country's "energy mix,"
it's worth taking a look at five major benefits of solar
power.

1. Changing Relationships with Public Utilities
Homeowners and business owners who install solar
panels on their property enjoy more equitable
relationships with their local utilities. Whereas
conventional arrangements between utilities and their
customers require the latter to be wholly dependent on
the former, solar power users gain a measure of
independence from their utilities. Even if their solar
panels don't produce all of the power that they need on
a daily basis, they'll need to buy less conventional
power. If they produce more power than they require,
their utilities may actually pay them for it at a
fluctuating wholesale rate. For cash-strapped
homeowners, this can turn into a significant source of
revenue.
2. Healthy Financial Incentives
Along with various state agencies, the federal
government offers attractive subsidies for private
individuals who install solar panels or solar heating
devices in their homes. In certain jurisdictions,
generous subsidies may be available for businesses as
well. Generally speaking, these incentives allow solar
power users to claim tax credits in proportion to the
amount of generation capacity that they install on
their property. This reduces solar power start-up costs
and increases the profitability of the technology.
3. Minimal Environmental Impact
Although the production of solar panels does require
some inputs of raw materials and energy, solar power's
environmental impact is minimal. The technology
produces none of the carbon, methane or particulate
emissions that fossil fuels emit, and it doesn't demand
large-scale mining or drilling operations. Since panel
arrays can be placed on rooftops or in isolated desert
areas, solar power's physical footprint is manageable
as well.
4. Labor-Intensive Production Regimes
The solar power industry's "innovation engine" has
resulted in the creation of tens of thousands of jobs in
the last decade alone. Although proponents of
conventional energy technologies argue that the solar
industry destroys more fossil fuel-related jobs than it
creates, this is a misleading claim. After all, solar
panel production is just a small facet of an overall
industry that demands contributions from installation
technicians, salespeople, battery-storage designers
and other key players.
5. Geopolitical Benefits
Since the dawn of the fossil fuel age, the United
States’ reliance on unstable or hostile countries to
supply oil, gas and other energy resources has caused
plenty of trouble. Indeed, the country's political and
business leaders are often forced to make unsavory
compromises with shady or dangerous parties in order
to guarantee steady energy imports. Since all of the
solar power that the United States needs can be
generated within the country's own borders, the
technology has the potential to eliminate this less-
than-ideal reliance on imperfect actors. In the long
run, such a development could increase the economic
and physical security of every American citizen.
Putting Things in Perspective
Solar power shouldn't be mistaken for a cure-all that's
capable of single-handedly solving all of the world's
social, environmental and political ills. However, it's a
valuable technology that's increasingly competitive with
traditional sources of energy. Moreover, its benefits
are undeniable. In the future, solar power is all but
assured to have a lasting and overwhelmingly positive

PoliticsJonathan For 2015? Think Again!!! by dexpendable(op): 10:45pm On Dec 23, 2014
I will try as much as possible to make this short and conscience. ..
The moment you hear "What's Nigeria's major issue?" What triggers your mind immediately is electricity. .. of course. This is yet another December, marking the end of yet another year of Democratic Government, marking another independence celebration.... It has been so since! Every year it's the same thing... These are the following dead "national" organisation in Nigeria.
1. NITEL
2. NIPOST
3. NIGERIA AIRWAYS
4. NIGERIA RAILWAYS.
Over the years, there have been not a single hope in the resurrection process of the organisations. Why are we deceiving ourselves over nothing. This government is the worst ever after Abacha's regime. What makes it so is the high presence of ignorance existing in the government.. 8 months ago, the chibok girls incident happened, and we've a government, we've a President who commands the armed forces... A terrorist group in the Northern part of the country take hostages at will and when needed, they bomb and destroy lives at will when they feel so, that means anyone can fall victim, what if you were kidnapped by boko haram in your own country? Is there any hope of you been ever rescued by the so called government? Is there anything like intelligence in Nigeria? We also claim we lunched satellites into space, yet the location of the terrorists group inside our own country is yet unknown. ... the U.S tracked down bin laden in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq for 11 solid years, Bin laden never set his foot in the U.S after the 9/11 because he would be caught right as he's even boarding the plane... the U.S has an estimated population of ove 250million people, the state of texas alone is bigger than Nigeria. So its not a matter of our size or land mass, its a matter of corruption, Embezzlement of public funds,Illiteracy, Cluelessness, the taste of power(African mentality). How do you know the rate of unemployment and poverty in Nigeria? Walk into any betting center and you'll have an estimate. . Everyone wants to have money whether legally or illegally whichever pays ... We've yahoo boys who should be developing mainstream softwares that should be competing with heavy weight programmers around the world, but where's the electricity to power the laptop?
Why are there contradictions against Jonathan's government if at all he has served us well?

My people 2015 is yet another year but a different one because we get the chance to choose! WHO'S will
rule Nigeria for the next 4 yearshuh
Buhari it is!
I use this medium to pray for the safety of the girls who were kidnapped and won't be able to celebrate the new year with their families. ......
God bless Nigeria.

I can see buhari stabilizing words oil price and reducing dollar value to naira for 10 naira for 1 US dollar with his mouth, cus an educated person can never vomit this. we want that hypocritical change, all in the bid to get to power. The last time I checked GEJ isn't doing bad. The only problem he has is the shit APC candidates threw into this nation by causing instability and putting the blame on just one man, this shit will be feed by them come 2015 trust me
The last time you checked. ... I bet you've got no relations kidnapped by boko haram...
The last time you checked you saw a refinery in Nigeria...
The last time you checked, Nigeria had its own national air carrier...
The last time you checked the north isn't in the hands of terrorists...
The last time you checked the niger delta militants where in prison....

Tell me again about the last time you checked your retention capabilities

It is easier said than done. If it was APC that got that amount of donation would they invest it in the power sector? It is always easy in theory.

By the way, the problem with the power sector is more than lack of funds. It's not just about pumping in funds.
That has been the mistake of the past administrations.
One should not expect the power project to be successful when we've got people who benefit from the dysfunction. The generator importers and fuel dealers surely have a hand in the sabotage of the efforts put into fixing the power situation.
I thought there's a position called the PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE ARMED FORCES. ..
