Tragically, her quest for curves cost her all her limbs and almost her life.
In 2004, Brown says she paid a "pumper," an unlicensed person, to inject industrial-grade silicone into her buttocks. Brown can't recall how much the woman actually charged — maybe $500, maybe $1,000 — but over time, she says, the area became intensely irritated and painful, and the skin blackened. By early 2006 she says the silicone had hardened, causing severe pain and infection, ultimately requiring her to have lifesaving amputation of her limbs last year.

Foolish woman.

I wasn't even aware of this. But now that I am, yes...it seems to be more nutritious/beneficial for babies than formula.

So if my wife couldn't breastfeed, why not?

[quote author=ndu_chucks]How can Fashola or anyone who hopes to rule Nigeria have any problem whatsoever with amending our constitution or even rewriting it? Is it not senseless to call for social engineering which could take generations for its effect to be actualized, instead of amending the constitution or rewriting it?

I am beginning to feel that Fashola may not have what it takes to move Nigeria forward. His talents are probably limited to managing entities such as cities and small states.

Obi is on point here and even the old coot Edwin Clark, is making more sense than Fashola.[/quote]So, I take it that you agree with Obi that the states should be replaced with zones, and that the SE having 5 states while the NW having 7 is injustice?

This woman needs to get voice lessons. She sounded like a dying cat in her song 'hi'

^-- It is the unfortunate reality we have to deal with, where a violent and evil religion like Islam exists.

No other faith seems to have such difficulty getting along with other viewpoints, or is so against the principle of free speech.

Hmm. One of the few times I've found myself disagreeing with Fash.

Rossikk: ^^ why?

1. Well, generally speaking, human beings aren't great at predicting most trends many years in the future.
2. I think it is silly to predict high growth in Nigeria for many years unless it first starts manufacturing and industrializing. 5 or so good years is not a fundamental trend, imo.
3. Even if (2) is addressed, at some point increased prosperity in Nigeria will eventually cause money/investment to chase poorer countries, since those countries will then have the advantage cost-wise.

It is one thing to look at Nigeria 7%+ growth over the past few years and Europe's slower growth over that time period and make predictions for say 2015.

It is an entirely different thing to use those same #s to project out to 2050.

Katsumoto, practically speaking, Seun lives in Nigeria.

I live in the US. I can afford to have freedom of speech here especially regarding Islam, since there aren't very Muslims in this country and very few where I live specifically...the probability of my suffering physically for being anti-Islamic is very small.

But Seun lives in Nigeria.

It isn't about protecting his business, but about protecting his personal safety.

So, I understand Seun's position. Though I will purchase a certain book and burn it to express my dissatisfaction.

cray.

The idea that the Moon was once part of Earth was suggested as far back as 1898, but it wasn’t until the mid-70s that the giant impact hypothesis — which suggests that the Moon was formed via the massive collision between Earth and another Mars-sized body — first gained favor. In 2001, Canup and Asphaug published solid calculations in support of the hypothesis, but physical proof of the impact has yet to be found. But according to new research published today in Nature, that may have changed.

A paper published today in Nature by Frédéric Moynier and Randal Paniello of Washington University in St. Louis, and James Day of Scripps, shares findings of a chemical analysis of Moon rocks that shows a fractional difference in their makeup as compared to samples from the Earth. Although the two are markedly similar, it’s been previously shown that Moon rocks lack volatile elements, which suggests they may have evaporated during the incredibly intense heat and pressure created during an impact event. But if the hypothesis that light elements actually evaporated from Moon rocks during their formation is correct, you’d expect to find evidence of elements being layered by mass — heavier elements would condense first, and so on.


That process is known as isotopic fractionation — a concept central to carbon dating — and Moynier and team’s results suggest they found exactly that. They compared the blend of zinc isotopes in Moon rocks and Earth samples, and found that the Moon rocks held slightly higher proportions of heavier zinc isotopes. If the Moon was indeed once part of Earth — which has been modeled extensively — the difference in the balance of zinc profiles would most likely be explained by lighter zinc isotopes evaporating away following a collision.

“When a rock is melted and then evaporated, the light isotopes enter the vapor phase faster than the heavy isotopes, so you end up with a vapor enriched in the light isotopes and a solid residue enriched in the heavier isotopes,” Moynier said. “If you lose the vapor, the residue will be enriched in the heavy isotopes compared to the starting material.”



This is the first time anyone’s published results showing such fractionation in Moon rocks, and in addition to showing that that the Moon rocks differ in chemical composition to Earth, they also show similar differences — low concentrations of zinc, but comparatively high proportions of heavier zinc isotopes — to Martian rock material. The Earth and Mars have chemical makeups similar to chondrites, which are meteors that have not been melted or altered, and thus are simliar to the makeup of rocky material born in the early universe. The way Moon rocks differ from all three suggests that it must have been born under conditions of extreme heat and volatility, like if it condensed out of vaporized rock.

As such, the results lend a lot of credence to the giant impact hypothesis. It’s hard to imagine, but the collision between the Earth and the second body — often called Theia after the mother of the Moon goddess Selene in Greek mythology — would have released so much energy that it would have melted much of the Earth’s mantle, and may have completely obliterated Theia. The resulted cloud of vaporized rock then condensed to become the Moon. As ridiculous as it sounds, it’s the most likely way that the Earth and Moon ended up in their current orbits.

Should Moynier’s results hold up and it turns out the Moon is indeed born from the Earth, further comparison of their chemical differences could explain a lot more about the formation of the early Earth. But the most awe-inspiring thing about the Moon exploding out of the Earth around 4.5 billion years ago is the scale: While the collision that led to the death of the dinosaurs must have been epic in size, it could never compare to the apocalyptic collision of planet-sized bodies that gave birth to the Moon.

better than aluu killers because they are breaking into my home and directly threatening my life, family, property.

not the same as aluu

yes....no real dilemma here for me

This thread needs to make the front page.

zoogy2007: You guys are simply TONTO HATERS. I have listened to both songs and I believe she made a good attempt.

Your ears do not function properly then, my brother

Homeless with 5 kids?

Hot damn

supereagle: IBB must be there if Gadaffi is there.

Libya is/was much wealthier than Nigeria. And he ruled Libya for much longer than IBB did....

Nayah is it true that you hate your fellow English-speaking cameroonians

Tonto, my sweet Tonto. Whoever was advising you to release this song led you astray.

She should have invested her time in voice lessons.

Now people will mistakenly think that you are a razz girl

lmao @ DK's post

Wtf!?!


Is this a joke? She has no voice

Was she drunk or high when she made this

Kind of interesting though. Mansa Musa was basically your typical African big man, appropriating his nation's wealth for his own (though not using underhanded means like certain others).

Compare this with the Waltons or the Rothchilds.

I think the latter form of wealthiness is more beneficial to society than the former.

lol where is a link to the song na

lmao
