Jokes Etc / Analysis Of The ''F'' Word by EMMABC1(m): 5:05am On Dec 21, 2013
Perhaps one of the most interesting and colorful words in the English language today is the word “f uck”. It is the one magical word, which, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, love, and hate.

In language, “f uck” falls into many grammatical categories. It can be used as a verb, both transitive (Mary f ucked John) and intransitive (John was f ucked by Mary). It can be an action verb (John really gives a f uck), a passive verb (Mary really doesn't give a f uck), an adverb (Mary is f ucking interested in John), or as a noun (Mary is a terrific f uck). It can also be used as an adjective (Mary is f ucking beautiful) or an interjection (F uck! I'm late for my date with Mary). It can even be used as a conjunction (John is ugly, f uck, he's also stupid). As you can see, there are very few words with the overall versatility of the word “f uck.”

Aside from its sexual connotations, this incredible word can be used to describe many situations:
1) Surprise -- “What the f uck are you doing here?”
2) Fraud -- “I got f ucked by the car dealer.”
3) Resignation -- “Oh, f uck it!”
4) Trouble -- “I guess I'm f ucked now.”
5) Aggression -- “F UCK YOU!”
6) Disgust -- “F uck me.”
7) Confusion -- “What the f uck...?”
cool Difficulty -- “I don't understand this f ucking business!”
9) Despair -- “F ucked again....”
10) Pleasure -- “I f ucking couldn't be happier.”
11) Displeasure -- “What the f uck is going on here?”
12) Lost -- “Where the f uck are we?”
13) Disbelief -- “UN-F UCKING-BELIEVABLE!”
14) Retaliation -- “Up your f ucking ass!”
15) Denial -- “I didn't f ucking do it.”
16) Perplexity -- “I know f uck-all about it.”
17) Apathy -- “Who really gives a f uck, anyhow?”
18) Greetings -- “How the f uck are ya?”
19) Suspicion -- “Who the f uck are you?”
20) Panic -- “Let's get the f uck out of here.”
21) Directions -- “F uck off.”
22) Awe -- “How the f uck did you do that?”

It can be used in an anatomical description -- “He's a f ucking asshole.” It can be used to tell time -- “It's five f ucking thirty.” It can be used in business -- “How did I wind up with this f ucking job?” It can be maternal -- “Motherf ucker.” It can be political -- “F uck Clinton!”

It has also been used by many notable people throughout history:
“What the f uck was that?” -- Mayor of Hiroshima
“Where did all these f ucking Indians come from?” -- General Custer
“That's not a real f ucking gun, is it?” -- John Lennon
“Who's gonna f ucking find out?” -- Richard Nixon
“Why the f uck did that apple hit me?” -- Issac Newton
“Heads are going to f ucking roll.” -- Marie Antoinette
“I could have used a f ucking map.” -- Ulysses
“Where the f uck is all this water coming from?” -- Captain of the Titanic
“Any f ucking idiot could understand that.” -- Albert Einstein
“It DOES SO f ucking look like her!” -- Picasso
“Okay, I know... we'll build this BIG f ucking wall to keep them out.” -- Emperor of the Ch'in Dynasty
“I can't believe I just f ucking said that.” -- Patrick Henry
“F ucking backstabbers!” -- Julius Caesar
“You want what on the f ucking ceiling?” -- Michelangelo
“MouthAction is not f ucking!” -- Bill Clinton
“Where is that f ucking pizza guy?” -- Elvis
“Why? Because its f ucking there!” -- Sir Edmund Hilary
“I don't suppose its gonna f ucking rain?” -- Joan of Arc
“Scattered fucking showers my ass.” -- Noah
“I need this parade like I need a f ucking hole in my head.” -- John F. Kennedy
“What are the f ucking chances I'm going to heaven?” -- Adolf Hitler
“Hey, where the f uck are your turbans?” -- Christopher Columbus when he discovered the “Indians”
Health / The Health Benefits Of Red Wine by EMMABC1(m): 4:21am On Dec 21, 2013
Can wine really improve our health and increase longevity? Scientists are beginning to say "Yes!" Supposing that the theory is true -- which wines give us the most bang for the buck?

Researchers have found that red wines rich in flavonoids are best for our health. Flavonoids are best known for their antioxidant qualities and help the body resist such maladies as allergens, viruses and carcinogens.

Red wines also contain anxioxidants, which help the body resist cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Syrah and Pinot Noir contain the highest concentrations of antioxidants and flavonoids.

Other red wines such as Merlots and red zinfandels contain fewer flavonoids, but more than most white wines. So, the best bet for drinking wine for our health is to stick to the dryer red wines. Just because wine contains components that are central to good health doesn't give us a free rein to get plastered every night. Don't overdo it -- but adding a glass of wine to your daily diet can definitely make a difference to our health.

Paracelsus, the noted 16th-century Swiss physician wrote, "Wine is a food, a medicine and a poison - it's just a question of dose." As with almost any food or drink, wine consumed in large doses can be a detriment to our health.

Most health officials agree that one or two four-ounce glasses of wine per day can be beneficial to men, while women should limit their consumption to one four ounce serving per day.

Cardiovascular expert, Professor Roger Corder, has spent years studying the evidence of health benefits from red wine. In his new book, "The Wine Diet," he says he is convinced that most of us should include red wine in our every day lifestyle.

Corder discovered what he eventually labeled the "French Paradox." Specifically, he wondered why the French have a lower rate of heart disease despite the fact that their diet was extremely rich in fats. He concentrated his research on the southwest portion of France, where life expectancy seemed to be highest.

Professor Corder discovered that the region produces very tannic local wines, which contain the highest procyanidin (antioxidant) content of any wines, worldwide. This led him to further research on the amazing medical benefits of red wine.

While wine may not be man's ultimate elixir or fountain of youth, it certainly behooves us to consider adding a glass of wine or two to our daily diet - and raise a "toast" to our continued good health.

Romance / Relationship Therapy You Can Do On Your Own by EMMABC1(m): 3:59am On Dec 21, 2013
While most relationships have their share of ups and downs, very few couples are willing or able to invest the time and/or money that traditional relationship therapy would cost.

This doesn't mean that they're more or less committed to the success of their relationship than other couples - only that they have different limits as to what they find an acceptable intrusion into their private lives (particularly when it comes to a third party such as a therapist).

The good news for those that find themselves in this particular situation - or even when one partner simply isn't willing to go into therapy - is that there are things you can do that can lead to self healing and repairing a relationship that may be damaged.

You can do this as one partner or as a couple, although it's much more effective when both people participate. We've become a society of do-it-yourselfers, so it only makes sense that we're bringing this idea into the more personal aspects of our lives rather than the simple home improvement projects.

Positive thinking is a great place to start. Whenever the roads of romance become a little too rocky for comfortable travel, it's time to take a step back and remind each other why you fell in love in the first place.

Make a list, write a letter, write a poem, or take a few minutes to hold each other and dance. Remind each other of the wonderful person you are when unencumbered with the worries of the world, children, finances, and the world outside the circle of your arms.

There are many different styles of self-therapy that you can use. You may want to check out some books on the various styles and read them together for advice, guidance, and perhaps a little insight as to where your specific problems may lie and the best path to take in the future.

One highly recommended style of relationship therapy is known as the Imago, which is Latin for 'match' style. You can find many books on this topic either online or at your local library. The important thing is that you take as many steps as possible together.

Role-playing is another great way to obtain valuable insight as to how you perceive your partner as well as how he or she sees you. You may learn a lot about how the English language or mother tongue is woefully inadequate at conveying precise messages. You may intend to say one thing and your partner may hear something else entirely. It's important to learn how to communicate with one another positively and accurately. Working together through self-therapy and role-playing can help you achieve that.
Literature / Chimamanda's 'americanah' Tops Bbc's 10 Best Of 2013 Books by EMMABC1(m): 3:05am On Dec 20, 2013
below is an except from BBC's rating of our dear literary giant
1. Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Chimamanda Adichie is supremely smart. She has won the Commonwealth Writers' Prize (for Purple Hibiscus), the Orange Broadband award (for Half of a Yellow Sun), and a MacArthur 'genius' grant. With Americanah, a star-crossed love story that spans three continents, she proves she is also supremely funny.

Ifemelu leaves her boyfriend behind in Nigeria to study in the US. After her initial disorienting days as an immigrant and a string of humiliating jobs, she finds an outlet in a satiric blog. "Dear Non-American Black, when you make the choice to come to America, you become black," she writes. She becomes a Princeton fellow and dates a Yale professor. After 13 years her heart brings her back to Lagos, where she is not 'black'. She's Igbo. And Americanah.

Adichie is fearless when writing about love, hate and shades of blackness. She tempers her directness with wry humour as she holds up a mirror so we can see ourselves.

Excessive body odour especially during sweating is a major symptom of STIs. So, if u have one, start by going for a test to know if u have any of the STIs.
Politics / Re: Olumuyiwa Aliu Elected As ICAO President by EMMABC1(m): 6:02pm On Nov 20, 2013
Sloan: Why is Oduah's name mentioned in the same line as Dr. Olumuyiwa Aliu?? That is really disgusting and it is a shame that this useless, thieving, coward woman would seek to share the spotlight with a man far above her and unanimously supported by countries who would puke out their intestines at the corruption and perfidy of Oduah. This woman is a devil and deserves to be hated for even mentioning useless BASA and Aviation ministry in the same paragraph as this man's achievement! That retardeen GEJ or whatever nominated him means absolutely nothing to the process of him being elected because countries like Singapore would prefer that their own citizen be hanged rather than be mentioned in the same line as this lowest scum of the earth called Oduah! Oloriburuku obinrin apa!

Congratulations to Dr. Olumuyiwa, and we (the truly patriotic, non-corrupt and no-defenders-of-thieving-clansman) are proud of your achievements!

Are u not stupid and ignorant enough to have called Ms Oduah a coward when she is an epitome of courage and confidence. U know u who the real cowards are? They are ur people who have bn silenced and exocised of ethnic madness and envy by one woman. Anyway congrats to Dr Muyiwa, ODUAH, GEJ and Nigerians for this feat.

Food / Re: Is Palm Oil Really Bad For Your Health? by EMMABC1(m): 9:48pm On Oct 18, 2013
The best and healthy cooking oil are olive oil and soy oil from soya plant. If u can afford them, then go for them. If you can't, then u have to use both palmoil and vegetable oil in moderation. Palm oil though from plant source, is one of the rare plant- source oils that have highly polysaturated fatty acid that can form bad cholesterol in the body. The bad cholesterol forms a plague on the blood vessels which build up blood pressure and cause heart disease.
However, palmoil is a good source of tocopherol and vitamin E which are powerful antioxidants that scavenge free radicals in the body. Free radicals released as a result of stress, eating junk and over-fried food cause cancer and make us age faster

ehixking: I can still remember very vividly a song we used to sing back then in church............


"Faith of our fathers, living still,
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whenever we hear that glorious Word!"


This is the songs our children would sing for us if we can fight these evil called unemployment
By asking to be productive in our society
We are indirectly asking the government to be responsible,transparent and accountable to its citizens
Malaysia used to be unproductive and economic activity was really nothing to write home about in fact Nigeria donated to them their first Palm tree
Why can't we ask them how they made it that far in just a couple of years!
Did they achieve that while corruption was still the other of the day?
Did their government keep encouraging entrepreneurship without enabling environment?
...today they import palm oil into Nigeria
Let's think about making nigeria into a highly productive and industrialised economy
Let's involve the youth in mechanised agriculture
Word on the streets
(government should take note)
"Make una dey chop una oye(oil) money just give us peanut make we take am plant cocoa and cassava"
