FamilyRe: How To Increase Intimacy In Marriages by DOD1: 6:44pm On Aug 10, 2021
blog4all:
HOW TO BOOST INTIMACY IN YOUR MARRIAGE

1. Know that intimacy is not just about having sexual intercourse but nurturing a warm, exclusive and strong connection between you two

2. Talk heart to heart. Talk about how you feel, how you are, notice each other's goodness. Talk more than just bills, the children and responsibilities

3. Maintain oral and body hygiene. Your spouse will struggle to get close to you when you smell

4. Make time to spend together. Intimacy is not rushed

5. When you two are far from each other, chat and talk warmly over the phone so that when you meet at home it is a continuation of the warmth

6. Kiss more than your spouse's lips. Kiss your spouse's forehead, cheeks, neck, fingers, arms, back, thighs... The skin has alot of room

7. Talk to each other with a tone that is not attacking, this will invite you both to each other's presence

8. Laugh together. Humour makes two people bond easier

9. Eat together often. Food is a unifier

10. Make out often. Making out involves lengthy deep kissing, handling, cuddling, massaging

11. Ask each other leading questions. These are questions that will require conversations and not a yes or no answer. Questions such as "How is your dream coming along?", "How did you get this mark on your arm?", "What do you love about us?"

12. Complain less, appreciate more. It is difficult to enjoy the company of someone who is constantly negative

13. Pray more as a couple. Prayers brings you two closer

14. Do activities together. Find something you both can do together such as cooking, playing a game, watching a movie, dancing; love is built on activity

15. Dress in a manner that excites and pulls your spouse to you. Confidently look appealing

16. Give each other eye contact more so that you focus on each other. Tame your phone, TV and gadget use

God bless every home

The following procedure might be of help
1. Always ask the trader to quote you on this thread.
2. Go through the trader's profile. Kindly, ensure you don't trade with new accounts or accounts that don't have good trade history, without using an escrow.
3. Never be in haste to trade. Always wait for an available escrow.
4. Kindly know that escrows are old traders, who have traded here for a long time and have a good trade history.
5. Always stay safe.

How To Get Started


So straight to the point, the websites are craiglist.com letgo.com and
offerup.com

Craigslist.com: This website doesn’t need too much paparazzi; just make
sure you download a paid VPN from your play store and access the website
(I recommend Nord VPN). You can select the cities according to your agent’s
city and then search for what you want to buy.


1. So you go to craiglist.com and pick US and then the city of your agent

2. So let’s say your agent is New york and Town is New York City.

3. The next thing you do here is type out the product you want to buy in the search menu.

EducationRe: Some Grammatical Mistakes You Make And Things You Say Wrong. by DOD1: 5:12pm On May 04, 2020
Veebliz:
Some grammatical mistakes you make and things you say wrong.


Hello, everyone. Before I shoot, I’d like you to read this:

After learning some Spanish and having to correct a lot of English in WhatsApp groups, I’ve discovered that some of us say some things wrong. Some like saying things like “English is not our language”, “Who English epp? (Who does English help?)” “Does it add money to my account?” especially when you correct them. But most of these are said out of ignorance. English is not your language, but why do you use it? English has helped a lot of people, YES! It has. Why else do we use English to teach at school? In fact, more research has been done in English than in any other language, 98% of scientific materials published today are in English, I’m not saying that other languages are inferior, but the truth is that, some people do need to stop being ignorant and face it – English really DOES matter…and YES – it can add money to your account in so many ways; you think about it.

Yeah, I feel like it’s important for me to add this: I’ve come across some Nigerians who speak English as their first tongue; I do as well, so the idea of saying English is not our language doesn’t make any sense at all. I have no problem with anybody speaking any indigenous language.

The English language is not a foreign language to Nigeria, it has mixed with our cultures in a unique way, and therefore has become ours – one of our languages, even though I don’t speak the language of my indigenous tribe, I still have some of their cultural values instilled in me, I cherish and respect them.

Aha! I must not skip this; I've interacted with Brits and Americans on the internet, so I see them make silly mistakes as well, but the ones I've written here are some of the mistakes I see my country people make often. Let’s see some of the grammatical mistakes people make and things they say wrong.

1) The verb – to make;

Of course, you would have definitely seen some people make mistakes with this verb, it’s common to hear people say things like:
“This picture makes me TO remember my past.”
“Eating all the time will make you TO be fat.”
“If you use this medicine, it will make you TO sleep.”
I am sure you’ve already spotted the mistake, right? – Yeah, I made it obvious. The verb – to make doesn’t take “to” after it, so the correct thing to say in each sentence above is: “This picture makes me remember my past.”
“Eating all the time will make you (be) fat” – in this kind of sentence, it’s more common and therefore more natural to skip the verb – “be”.
“If you use this medicine, it will make you sleep.”
The only time it’s fine to use “TO” after the verb – to make is when it is in the passive; for example, “I was made TO kneel down yesterday at school.” NOT I was made kneel down yesterday at school.”


2) The verb – to enable;

This verb requires “to” after it, but it is so amusing that some people would leave out “to” using this verb but would use it with the verb “to make”.
Here is an example: “This software will enable you TO work on your computer efficiently.” NOT “This software will enable you work on your computer efficiently.”


3) The verb – to allow;

This verb also requires “to” after it.
Here is an example: “My parents will not allow me TO go out today.” NOT “My parents will not allow me go out today.”


4) The verb – to reply;

The mistakes made with this verb are pretty common, this verb is intransitive, which means it cannot go with a direct object, therefore, it needs a preposition for it to make sense, and therefore, you reply TO somebody or TO something. NOT reply somebody or something.
“Why didn’t you reply my messages?” is WRONG. The correct thing is: “Why didn’t you reply TO my messages?”


5) The idiom – to be about to do something;

Hahahaha , I remember hearing someone say: “I was just about asking same thing.” Well, the correct thing is: “I was just about TO ask you THE same thing.”


6) The noun – stuff;

Yeah! This particular noun is such a pain in the ass for some people, it is uncountable, so, it cannot take an S after it and an indefinite article can’t be used with it either.
“Please give me five minutes – I want to get my STUFF” NOT “Please give me five minutes – I want to get my stuffs”.
“Where did you get all this stuff?” NOT “Where did you get all these stuffs?”
“Where IS all my stuff?” NOT “Where are all my stuffs?”
“This is good stuff.” NOT “This is a good stuff.”
The only context where stuff can take an S is if it’s used as a verb: “Ade always stuffs himself with so much junk food.”


7) The nouns – slang and jargon;

English is weird, yeah…but it’s not hard. So many people make mistakes with these nouns - These nouns are uncountable – yeah you read it right; UNCOUNTABLE.
I remember reading an article sometime ago, it had: “20 slangs you will hear in Nigeria” as its title: If you’ve been reading this article carefully, you will have known what is wrong with the sentence.
Numbers can’t be used with uncountable nouns, so the correct thing is: “20 SLANG WORDS/EXPRESSIONS/TERMS you will hear in Nigeria”. Or simply put: “Some slang you will hear in Nigeria.” – So you can use “some” with uncountable nouns and countable nouns as well.
“That is internet slang.” NOT “That is an internet slang.”
“Too much slang was used in the movie.” NOT “Too many slangs were used in the movie.”
“His messages were full of jargon.” NOT “His messages were full of jargons.”


8 ) The noun – information;

I don’t need to explain this, just keep it in mind that it is UNCOUNTABLE.
“Thank you for that information.” NOT “Thank you for those informations”
“What a wonderful piece of information!” NOT “What a wonderful information!”
“I want to share some information with you.” NOT “I want to share you an information.”


9) The noun – advice;

This is uncountable as well: make sure you do not mistake it for the verb: advise. The noun is spelt with a C and the verb with an S.
“I need (some) advice from you.” NOT “I need some advices from you.” NOT “I need an advice from you.”


10) All what;

If you’ve been saying this, then you need to STOP saying it! This is WRONG! It should be either: “All (that)” or “All OF what”.
“All (that) I’ve been saying is that….” NOT “All what I’ve been saying is that…”


11) The noun – headache;

Just as people make mistakes with uncountable nouns, they also do the same thing with countable nouns – it’s very common to hear “I am having headache”. This sentence is wrong. It should be: “I have a headache.”


12) The noun – news;

This is an uncountable noun. wink
“This is good news!” NOT “This is a good news!”


13) The expression – in the twinkling of an eye;

I’ve heard and seen people say: “In the twinkle of an eye.” – This is wrong of course: it should be: “In the twinkling of an eye.”


14) The famous – “I don’t get”.

Okay, I don’t want to be too annoying because I KNOW that some will get angry reading this article, but guess what? Learning never ends. We are used to saying this, but you should know that the verb – to get in this case is transitive, so it needs an object to sound okay.
So I recommend that you start saying: “I don’t get IT.”
Saying “I don’t get” has always sounded weird to me, I’ve asked some foreigners just to be sure it's not just me but they said it sounded weird to them as well.


15) The noun – furniture;

I usually see furniture makers put up a sign like “ABC furnitures.”
This doesn’t work in English; it’s an uncountable noun, so you already know the drill.
“They like playing with furniture.” NOT “They like playing with furnitures.”


I am Nigerian, so I speak more Nigerian English, I don’t hate it, I just like when people make good use of it because I know what it feels like when you murder someone's language. When I was in junior secondary school, I remember saying something wrong in Yoruba while I was playing with my friends, you needed to have seen how three of them were throwing corrections at me. (
There are so many people who care about mistakes – especially in English.
These are just a few of the mistakes. I could keep on writing and writing, but I will leave it here.
So, I hope this helps your English if you’ve been saying it wrong.




Ermmmm, one last thing before the final full stop: This is for people who can’t do without starting a sentence with or using “Am”; What exactly is wrong? Please stop making this horrible mistake, if you can’t use the contraction: “I’m…” then use: “I am…”
It’s not hard work. The pronoun I is just one letter.

Thanks for reading.

HealthRe: Why Are My Hands Shaking For No Reason? by DOD1: 11:47am On Apr 10, 2020
healthserve:
Multiple reasons which may not be limited to these conditions :

1. You're not eating enough food portion that someone your BMI level should be eating. It's fitting to say you're malnourished but don't know it.


2. You may be eating quantity and not quality hence your body is reacting from not getting enough nutrients triggering the Condition known as low blood pressure


3. You're low on haemoglobin from not having adequate nutrients. To have enough iron in your body and reduce/stop the shaking, consider removing all forms of sugar, carbonated drinks from your diet over the next 90 days.


4. Change/improve your diet. Replace carbon hydrates with protein. Stop eating just rice, enabling and garrison and replace them with Hugh fibre diet like Beans, Wheat, Semo and then supplement with vegetables at least twice weekly and eat fruits here one there, fifty Naira, 100 Naira as your eyes sees, and your pocket can afford


5. Watch activities you engage in that sap the nutrients you get from the little meals you eat, reduce trekking, reduce walking/working under hot sun, plan your days activities and finish them before intense sun or after sunset


6. Over thinking and late sleep can influence your hormones and body functions to work overtime, eating all the nutrients you'd body finds in itself causing a situation where shock becomes a norm, exhibiting by shaking. Turn off your devices and stop sleeping 10.30/11.30pm, start to sleep two hours earlier and watch the difference



7. Get supplementary nutrients like Iron, Immune system boosters.


8.Some medications like drugs taken for asthma related conditions can induce such conditions. If your condition is drug related, look out for any drug you take before you experience shakiness in your hands and discuss with your doctor for professional advice ( preferably replacing the drug )

PhonesRe: 9 Incredible Useful Things I Didn’t Know Chrome Could Do. by DOD1: 7:07am On Mar 08, 2020
Xarouk:
LEARN SOME HANDY HIDDEN SHORTCUTS

1. Want to open a link into a new tab in the background, so it won’t interrupt what you’re doing? Hold down Ctrl- or Cmd- and click it. To open a link in a whole new window, mean- while, use Shift instead. (This’ll work within most areas of Chrome, by the way—includ- ing the History page and the dropdown history list within the Back button, which we’ll get to in a bit.)

2. You probably know you can press the space bar to scroll down a full page-length, but there’s another side to that shortcut: If you press Shift and the space bar together, Chrome will do the opposite and scroll up by a full page-length at a time.

3. If you ever close a tab by mistake, hit Ctrl- or Cmd-Shift-T. Chrome will reopen your most recently closed tab as if nothing had ever happened. (And you can do it multiple times, too, if there’s more than one tab you’d like to recover.)

4. When you have a bunch of tabs open and want to hang onto the entire session for later, hit Ctrl-Shift-D. That’ll let you save all your open tabs into a folder for easy future access. To restore them, right-click the folder within your bookmarks and select “Open all” or “Open all in new window.”

5. Skip a step and get info about any word or phrase in a page by highlighting it and then right-clicking and selecting the “Search Google” option. You can also highlight a word or phrase and drag it into Chrome’s address bar to achieve the same result—or drag it into the area directly to the right of your final tab to launch the search in a new tab instead of your current one. (Bonus tip: Those same dragging behaviors can also be used to open links.)

6. Save a link with a single click: Just click, hold down your mouse button, and drag the link up into Chrome’s bookmarks bar. Drop it wherever you want, and it’ll be there the next time you need it .

7. If you download a file and then want to move it somewhere specific, click on its tile in the download bar that appears at the bottom of the browser. You can then drag and drop whatever you downloaded directly onto your desktop or into any folder.

8. You can also drag and drop files from Chrome’s download bar directly into an online service—like Google Drive, for instant uploading, or Gmail, for inserting the file as an attachment in a new message.

9. Should you ever find Chrome mysteriously misbehaving, remember this command: chrome://restart. Type it into Chrome’s address bar, and your browser will restart itself and restore all your tabs and windows in a jiffy. You never know when it might come in handy.

RomanceRe: How To Legally Change Your Name by DOD1: 12:03am On Mar 06, 2020
OpatolaEsq:
The little things we take for granted have a way of coming back to hurt us, such little things as names. What is in a name? It is bigger than you might think, ask David Lyon of Bayelsa State.
When effecting change of name, good caution is required maybe not for today but tommorow.
Names already stated in official documents must be rightly and legally changed. Mere newspaper publication for change of name is not enough for names that are already in the government archives. Mere swearing to an affidavit and nothing more is not enough. You must go further than that.

People now a days wake up and change their names under inspiration; and expect that such names have been automatically and legally changed.
That's not how it works, it requires more.
Many people bear names not even recognized by law, and by implication they are unknown to any form of National Archive.

That a particular name is reflected on your bank account does not automatically mean that you need not go through the required process of change of name.
Name on Birth certificate: The name on Your birth certificate is already archived in government record. To change this name is tantamount to changing the government archive and record. Mere swearing to an affidavit will never cut it.

Name on Educational Certificate: Educational certificates such as WAEC, NECO, Degree Certificate e.t.c can not be change by mere affidavit. It will suffice if such names are changed by the issuing authorities. The name on such certificate must be changed by the University or WAEC or such body that issued it. Such body must also apart from changing it in its record, also issue you another certificate to that effect, showing such change of name.



How can I Legally Change my Name?

1. By the issuing body:
As earlier mentioned, the issuing body of any such certificate in which the name you want to change is the best position to effect such change of name. In doing so the body must change its record to effect the new name and issue you a new certificate to that effect or any such evidence of the change of name.

2. By deed poll:
A deed poll is a legal deed made and executed by one party only.
How to change your name by deed poll:
1. Swear a court affidavit.
2. Publish it in a National Newspaper.
3. Effect such change of name to be published in Nigeria’s official gazette.
4. You must apply for a new government document effecting and reflecting your newly acquired name.


Position of Married Women under the Law:
There are instances where a married woman will want to change her surname to reflect that of her husband, in such instance a deed poll is the ideal requiment. This is because the decision of such change of name will start to reflect on all official documents and government record. After the deed poll is effected then formal notice will be attached to the Gazette can now be issued to her place of work and other necessary bodies.
