Any community in this country that is not developed is Marginalized.

Nigerians should seek development in their communities, than fighting to enter Aso Rock. Since Jonathan enter what have Bayelsa gotten (no bi Church, imposition of Governor and Subsidy Removal suffering - what else?).

Fresh Air, my dear.

They just check their bank account statement and discovered that their share of the loot did arrive, as stated. Oya, Case Dismiss.

I want Beaf to come and spin this one and post the picture of him and his babe laughing their head off in the toilet over a bottle of shepe

timpaker: there is already an apps for that dude, just google it.
ON A SERIOUS NOTE IT EXISTS! (don't ask me for the name of the apps, its classified)

Which type of classification Watin be the name?

In all my encounter with the NPF, one thing is sure - that Bail Is Free - is only on paper (even when you are looking at it written on the board)

I dislike the Police than even our looting politicians (at least they try to hide theirs). But the men in Black will intimidate you and still pretend they want to just petty you - when you know your rights are clearly being insulted. When you come out, you keep asking yourself whether to walk away or go make case with the Police.

Nigerian Policemen are very heartless. Am yet to see what they cannot do.

Now they can download data into your brain.

If you see an unfamiliar face, just snap him and scan the Police and SSS database to know if he is an ex-convict, kidnapper or Boko haram. While at it, find out if their is Price Tag on him (for Dead or Alive)

[quote author=high-chief]Just driving back to base from abuja when I saw people (mostly women and children)running out of the bush, they said the fulanis are busy sluaghtering people, I did not see the army or police around. Its happening right now! Somebody please do something![/quote]Have you made the calls yet? Did it get through? Any response yet? Do keep us updated thank.

Ogbonaikenna: Its really unfortunate this is happening. But i think they are reaping what they sowed between 1967-1970. Karma has caught up with them. The spirit of biafra is real

And for this Azu-Ofe, if you do not have anything to say, please keep mute. If anyone provoked you to that thread and settle your scores.

Here is a video that show it from the perspective of the wearer

Google creates a spectacle with project

If you think texting while walking is dangerous, just wait until everyone starts wearing Google's futuristic, Internet-connected glasses.

Directions to your destination appear literally before your eyes. You can talk to friends over video chat, take a photo or even buy a few things online as you walk around.

These glasses can do anything a smartphone or tablet computer does now —and then some.

Google gave a glimpse of "Project Glass" in a video and blog post this week. Still in an early prototype stage, the glasses open up endless possibilities — as well as challenges to safety, privacy and fashion sensibility.

The prototypes have a sleek wrap-around look and appear nothing like clunky 3-D glasses. But if Google isn't careful, they could be dismissed as a kind of Bluetooth earpiece of the future, a fashion faux-pas where bulky looks outweigh marginal utility.

In development for a couple of years, the project is the brainchild of Google X, the online search-leader's secret facility that spawned the self-driving car and could one day let people ride elevators into space.

If it takes off, it could bring reality another step closer to science fiction, where the line between human and machine blurs.

"My son is 4 years old and this is going to be his generation's reality," said Guy Bailey, who works as a social media supervisor for Kennesaw State University outside Atlanta. He expects it might even be followed by body implants, so that in 10 years or so you'll be able to get such a "heads-up" display inside your head.

At its best, the goal is to make your life easier by putting the tools now at your fingertips in front of your eyes.

"There is a lot of data about the world that would be great if more people had access to as they are walking down the street," said Jason Tester, research director at the nonprofit Institute For the Future in Palo Alto, California.

That said, "once that information is not only at our fingertips but literally in our field of view, it may become too much."

Always-on smartphones with their constant Twitter feeds, real-time weather updates and "Angry Birds" games are already leaving people with a sense of information overload. But at least you can put your smartphone away. Having all that in front of your eyes could become too much.

"Sometimes you want to stop and smell the roses," said Scott Steinberg, CEO of technology consulting company TechSavvy Global. "It doesn't mean you want to call up every single fact about them on the Internet."

Still, it doesn't take much to imagine the possibilities. What if you could instantly see the Facebook profile of the person sitting next to you on the bus? Read the ingredient list and calorie count of a sandwich by looking at it? Snap a photo with a blink? Look through your wall to find out where electrical leads are, so you know where to drill?

"Not paint your house, because the people who looked at your house could see whatever color they wanted it in?" pondered veteran technology analyst Rob Enderle.

Wearing the glasses could turn the Internet into a tool in the same way that our memory is a tool now, mused science fiction writer and computer scientist Vernor Vinge. His 2006 book, "Rainbow's End," set in the not-so-distant future, has people interacting with the world through their contact lenses, as if they had a smart phone embedded in their eyes.

"Things we used to think were magic, we now take for granted: the ability to get a map instantly, to find information quickly and easily, to choose any video from millions on YouTube rather than just a few TV channels," Google CEO Larry Page wrote in a letter on the company's website Thursday.

In Google's video, a man wearing the spectacles is shown getting subway information, arranging to meet a friend for coffee and navigating the inside of a bookstore, all with the help of the glasses. It ends with playing the ukulele for a woman and showing her the sunset through a video chat.

Google posted the video and short blog post about Project Glass on Wednesday, asking people to offer feedback through its Google Plus social network.

By Thursday, about 500 people did, voicing a mix of amazement and concern about the new technology. What if people used it in cars and got distracted? What about the effect on your vision of having a screen so close to your eye?

Some asked for prototypes, but Google isn't giving those out just yet. The company didn't say when regular people can expect to get their hands on a piece of Project Glass, but going by how quickly Google tends to come out with new products, it may not be long. Enderle estimates it could be about six months to a year before broader tests are coming, and a year or more for the first version of the product.

With such an immersive device as this, that sort of speed could be dangerous, he cautions.

"It's coming. Whether Google is going to do it or someone else is going to do it, it's going to happen," Enderle said. "The question is whether we'll be ready, and given history we probably won't be. As a race we tend to be somewhat suicidal with regard to how we implement this stuff."

Have You Heard Of Google Glass Project?

This will be "Welcome to the Future". Imagine wearing glasses that allows you browse the internet as you walk around. Google just displayed a preview of what is ahead.

2buff: So some old fetishist was trying to sacrifice you to their river god?

I think it was more of not knowing how to swim. After that incident, I became a pro.

Who else have had close encounter to the edge?

Nigeria lack continuity. It was a good plan - we still see a lots of tourism ads on CNN (SA, Egypt, Greece, etc).

When Jonathan lost interest in it, he was not decent enough to find a replacement. Dora Made Us Proud

Personally, throughout my life, I have come very close to dieing. Am very grateful to God for keep me alive.

One of my earliest experience, I was a kid (less than 6yrs old). We stayed in Ikom, Cross River State. One day we went to the river to get water (we lived close), while we bath, an elderly neighbour who we met at the river, kept throwing my gallon into the river. At a point I decided to go get it (had not started swimming then), the river brag me once I got to deeper spots.

As I roll down the river, see sinking - drinking - smacking the water and repeating the whole thing again. At first people around thought it was a joke. Passed a lot of people swimming at the beach. When am almost down the end of the beach, it downed on me I was losing strength, sinking deeper and filled with water - so I just had to give it my best "scream" and try to stay long on the surface as I "beat" the water. Finally, I was weak, sinking and the surrounding were getting darker - just then, someone grabbed me.

I may have been breathing after I was rescued - But I was partially unconscious for more that 24hrs.

Have you had any experience where you came close to dieing and survived? Do share with us.

While we pay tribute to our great Hero, I hope others will trend carefully or better still keep away. Happy East everyone.

babihouse: may be GEJ has a better reason

What better reasons than this

antartica: [b]This is an opportunity for gej to bring obj to book for his crimes against humanity.[/b]Now that he is realizing that he is the commander-in-chief and to a great extent not as sick as dem obj and his pack of wolves,he can now bring all the criminals to book,lock them away for good,strip them of their illgotten wealth and sanitize nigeria for real like he appears to be doing.obj,atiku,anenih,ibb and co.

You must be dreaming. Even in the dream, Jonathan can not try 1% of that. If OBJ winks Jonathan will collapse. Helpless Zoo-keeper.

Here is his fundamental strategy for solving problems

Which one be Ijaw Nation? These guys are reducing the Presidency to the pits. Jonathan is a president of the most powerful nation in Africa, stop repainting the fisherman status

Since then till now, the "liver" problem still persist.

We do not want this type of development below, to continue.

Beaf: @egift
Tell GEJ to come and beg/worship you nau, just because you demonstrated.

What a ridiculous plonker.

Anu Nkita, all we want is for him to do his job, get result, stop giving excuses and prosecute those looting the treasury and funding terror.

For those who hope to we should forget and have them bend the truth - Fact is, Nigerians marched the streets to ensure this nation moves forward - and will again if need be. God bless Nigeria

I may not have all the time to be here deliberating your spins. So to just keep the slat decent, here are my position on these issues.
1. I congratulate Madam Joyce Banda for the opportunity before her to serve the people of Malawi as President.
2. I hope she utilize this opportunity to improve the lives of her people and develop her country. And not to act like ours that have become the leader of the gang of looters that have "chained" the development of Nigeria and is doing everything to keep the giant asleep.
3. On Bakare: It is undisputed fact that the pressure, efforts, and protest by Bakare, Soyinka and others played a lead role in ensuring Oga Presido was not only made Acting President or remained locked out.

Therefore, President Jonathan owe it as a responsibility to defend the interest of the Nigerian masses rather than side with corrupt elites who have looted this nation blind.

Beaf you are always quick to blame others for Jonathan's incompetence, tell us how old a problem or if those fail - you start name calling.

I even a decent pressure and tasking of Northern elites to not only draft plans to eliminate Boko Haram, but also be part of the execution and be responsible for activities in their domain.

Rather what we see is the possibility that FG is granting a free pass to people who may be connected to these killings. Believe me the Nigerian State have the power to at least KNOW them within Hours or few Days.
