UjSizzle: Hi guys. There's this really nice app that was suggested in the store for those who want to learn languages, and it's free. Duolingo. Really cool too
caboltx: Kaguya ate the chakra fruit of the holy tree which gave her chakra. She gave birth to two sons hagoromo (hermit of six paths) and hamura. Hagoromo had rinnegan and sharingan while hamura had byakugan and probably tenseigan. The hermit had two sons indra and ashura. Indra had sharingan while ashura inherited his father's chakra nd life force. The uchiha clan are descendants of indra while the uzumaki nd the senju clan were descendants of ashura. The hyuga clan are the descendants of hamura. Hagoromo travelled round the world and gave people who believe in his teachings (ninshu) chakra. So other clans arouse due to the hermit sharing his chakra to them.
Please, I do not think Hagoromo gave people chakra. He only gave (taught) nishuu. Chakra is akin to one's life force. There's this hidden life force in most of these mangas that depict powers. Hagoromo opened their eyes to chakra via nishuu
iyb: Kaguya ate the chakra fruit and became powerfull she gave birth to two sons(Hagoromo and Hamura) each of the sons gaining about 30% of her original chakra making it a total of 60% of her original chakra. Hagoromo has rinnegan while hamura has the byakugan kaguya became furious because her two sons gained power so she merged with the shinju to become the ten tails. she rampaged through the land until her two sons used the yin and yang seals to seal her rinne sharingan afterwards they used a sealing technique to seal her into hagoromo. hagoromo shared some of the chakra amongst humanity and then he decided to create the tailed beast from her chakra and then he used chibaku tensei to create the moon and seal the demonic statue of the outer path(empty shell of kaguyas body). Hagoromo ordered hamura to take the rest of the otsutsuki clan to the moon and guard the remains of their mother and he told hamura to wait for 1000 years and see how humanity was using the chakra he shared to them. A descendant of Hamura called toneri otsutsuki wanted to destro humanity but he was defeated by naruto. the uchiha,senju,uzumaki are descendants of hagoromo while the hyuga,kaguya are descendants of hamura
Wrong on the bolded. Kaguya is a descendant of the breeding of an Ootsutsuki and a Hyuuga. Hamura is Kaguya's descendant.
teemanbastos: When JESUS d prince of peace is nt present, dis is what is faced. Talk to ur pastor(s). Marriage is 'til death do us part'
Na wa oh. Bros, if na one of your friend dey this kin predicament, you go advise am say 'till death do us part'? Someone has threatened to kill you, your wife for that matter and you're waiting for your pastors to settle this matter?
OP, abeg, RUN!!! Separation is the best. If her family members support her, I don't see peace arriving anytime soon. BTW, isn't her elder sister married? Some ladies sha.
Why is it that when a guy comes to Nairaland for advice, some ladies find fault with the guy? They leave the issue and start attacking the guy? Someone said unprintable things to her husband before the butt pad issue, yet, they could only pick the butt pad to discuss saying 'is it your body?' Why not leave her be. Nna, na wa oh. Some Nairaland ladies aha. . . .
Rep042: My marriage is just 1 year and few days old,but within the last 365 days,I have seen torment and hell on daily basis. We dated for 2 years before tying the knot,she's a nice person,but her mouth is destructive,she has this overbearing attitude,always trying to control me or dictate the pace,and can keep malice,anger and record of evil done to her for a long time. She's the type of person that talks very well,I mean convincely well,but unfortunately,she speaks more negative words. She can talk for hours non-stop,especially when provoked,saying all sorts of bad words.
She has threatened to kill me & send assassins after me on different occasions in the past,though I just ignored such threats.
My wife has been abusing me verbally and always say nasty things at every slightest provocation and at the same ready to engage me in fisticuffs.
NL ladies: It is your fault. You aren't man enough.
She can really say unprintable words such as "it will not be well with you","as you go out,people will deal with you", "you will work like an elephant and eat like an ant", "this your certificate will never yield you any good thing", etc, name callings,abuses,curses etc.
NL ladies: you know we ladies can sometimes say things we do not mean when we are angry.
Please Nairalanders, I will like to know if it is wrong or out of place for a working class married lady to assist her husband in paying some bills or buying some foodstuffs at home. Because,anytime she assists in doing anything,she will record it and consequently use that to abuse and insult me whenever we have misunderstanding and or exchange of words.
After our traditional marriage on December 2013,I had some financial challenges,and then my rent was due for renewable,she offered to assist,at first I was skeptical about it ,because I know her kind of person,knowing full well that she will use that to ridicule and abuse me in no distant time. But,then,I didn't have any alternative,so I allowed her pay d rent. Now,she's claiming ownership,saying ..."which house,the one that I have been paying the rent or another one"...
She has done a lot of character assassination & damages to my personality before some of her relatives & family members(Her father and two sisters),thus they all support her & no longer regard me as anybody.
NL ladies: Bear with it. God will change her.
Few months into our marriage,she started wearing butt pads, I told her to stop ,because I don't like the stuff,but she flared up and we had exchange of words. She told me that she has to look good to outsiders.
Throughout her pregnancy period,she wore the butt pads on daily basis even at home,I allowed her because of her condition,even though it looked disgusting on her. After she put to bed,and few days later, I told her to quit wearing that stuff, but she refused,then I seized it,she started ranting to the hearing of everyone at home & neighbors that I have taken her padded pants(aka butt pad) to native doctor. I just ignored her. Few days later, she bought another set.
NL ladies: is anything wrong wearing buttpads? Are you trying to stop her from looking good? Is it your body?
On Xmas day(2014),she dressed up & wore the butt pads again,I told her to remove it ,but she refused,then i tried forcing her to do so,and that resulted to a serious fight. She tore my already ironed clothes to pieces(an expensive Indian attire I bought when I travelled to India),I tore hers too and forced the butt pads out from her body.
Hell was let loose that day,because she called her sisters,they came to my house and created a very nasty scene in my neighborhood,they insulted,ridiculed me and made a mockery of me,her elder sister who is a police officer threatened to deal with me,she was talking and hitting her hands on the ground saying that,they are going to teach me some bitter lessons in this town. I tried to respond but my Mum,who's on child's visit(Omugwo) asked me to hold my peace. It wasn't easy though,they also insulted her too.
Since that day till date,my wife doesn't talk to me. The only thing that connects us now is the new born baby.
Her words have actually killed me psychologically, emotionally etc, to the extent that sometimes, I loose consciousness of my surrounding while driving to and fro from work , I will be lost in thought, and on a particular occasion nearly rammed another moving vehicle,if not for the speed bumps on the road that awaken my consciousness.
NL ladies: It is because of premarital sex that this is happening to you; worst of all you are not ashamed to post this on a public forum. why didnt you see a marriage counsellor instead of posting it here
Her words:"if you are still regarding me as your wife,then you wasting your time". Its obvious she wants a divorce because to her,she's still very young(28 years),and can easily move on. She doesn't give a damn.
She has also repeated that same threat of killing me,these days ,the number of calls entering her phone is amazing,most times,she goes far from the house to answer those calls.
Please,kindly advice me. Thank you.
NL ladies: Your wife hasn't cheated on you, stolen your money, or committed any mortal crime. Man up and face your responsibilities and quit trying so hard to force yourself on her. It's not your place to tear down her clothes, butt pads or not, simply because you don't like them. By doing so, you've lowered yourself in her eyes, hence her fighting you back in retaliation.
netotse: All the best in your career...you need to constantly expand your knowledge base, the most valuable people in the power sector aren't the ones that can couple a transformer with their eyes closed, it's the guys that have the clearest understanding of the value chain.
If power is your thing, you can try reading the roadmap(I pasted a link to the site some replies back). There are two versions, I'd recommend you read both.
Measure twice then cut once.
That I'm doing. Taking some courses online from www.edx.org Thanks.
omonnakoda: I do not believe there is any country where it is not political. The key thing though is to have local development of technologies and skills so the sector is not vulnerable to international politics e.g sanctions and to have secure and reliable energy sources e.g gas. Part of te problem is Nigerians are not entrepreneurial on this kind of scale and so the only player so far has been government. There are no Nigerian businessmen investing n key sectors of our economy which is the fundamental difference with advanced economies. They are not all as capitalist as they posture. They are political business serving a national interest agenda and this has always been the case since the time of the Royal Niger Company(UAC). We have seen this demonstrated against Cuba and more recently Iran and Cuba. China is strong because China has acquired engineering competence. We must do the same. e do not make weapons and cannot defeat Boko Haram but there is no one thinking how do we solve this problem in 20 years time. How do we gain these competencies instead we pray and listen to Adeboye's prophecies
From the above, what will you say about our brothers down East who have shown that they can develop local technologies?
netotse: Guy...If you have a commodity to sell, wouldn't you rather sell to the higher bidder? gas prices for power plants were just increased to $2.50 from $1.50 and before that it was 90 cents or something equally atrocious.
Now as an IPP, knowing that you're going to be paid $1.50 per Mscf(that's how gas is measured in the energy sector in naija), and the money wouldn't even be paid in time, would you bother investing in equipment to utilize the gas?
It's always been cheaper to pay the fines associated with flaring gas rather than harnessing the gas for other uses. Govt is trying to change that hence the increase in gas prices.
P.S. remember I told you gas prices increased to $2.50 per Mscf? try finding out what international prices were for natural gas before the crude drop.
As per the second think I typed...I can tell you're an engineer from the way you write but you made some mistakes that show you dont have that good a grasp of the power sector.
Thanks for enlightening me. I'm not yet one though, just graduated.
omonnakoda: The River Niger does not have the same capacity as the Yangtze river. Also what if other countries decide to dam it further up stream Gas seems more efficient to me The station at Egbin is the biggest in the country and I am sure that the total land area covered will not come anywhere near Kainji. In the case of Kainji thousands of villagers were resettled and compensated . We should be building plants directly in the Niger Delta and this will create thousands of Jobs. 5000MW plants are possible and if we build 5 of that it would be a great start
netotse: It's never really on single issue, it's usually a mix of them...the more common ones are:
1. fuel shortage is a major problem in Nigeria, sometimes we dont have enough gas for the gas-fired stations, 2. sometimes it could be that there is a problem with some generators at different generating companies in the grid, 3. sometimes there might be a problem in the transmission grid that results in power being available but Transmission coy of Nigeria cant transport it,
The grid is made up of a large number of individual pieces of equipment, the problem with such a system is that as the number of components of a system increases, it's reliability is likely to decrease. Feraz mentioned building larger units (you could say power plants), this would help with nos. 2 and 3 but not 1.
Designing a power sector isn't an easy task, if you now have funding constraints...smh.
When I went on a field trip to Ihovbor power plant in Edo state, the guy mentioned the above and when asked, he said apart from the vandalisation ish, that NGC will prefer sending the gas to other users that will pay higher; that that is why they have gas shortage in the above power plant.
netotse: errr...what does land mass have to do with a dam? you aren't far off when you mention Kogi...Shiroro dam was not meant to be installed at the shiroro gorge, it shoulda been somewhere at the confluence but it was a political decision. Another thing, when you say the two major power plants in Nigeria what do you mean? How are they "the" two major power plants in Nigeria?
P.S. All hydro stations in Nigeria are in Niger state...well Jebba is in both Niger and kwara sha...
one more thing...you're mixing a lot of terms up, you need to watch that, it could come back to haunt you later.
Apologies for my blunders. I meant to say two power stations in Niger not 'major'.
bigfrancis21: Why should gas flaring continue? Oil producing countries barely flare their gases but find a way to channel the gas into some important usage. Give me one important reason why the gas should continue to be wasted?
Boss, I never said we should flare our gas. I agreed with what you said and also gave my own solution.
gnykelly: thanks for enlightening me. but why can't we maximize the whole 10000mw why do we hover between 3000-3500mw
The last time I did something on power generation, I used Kainji dam as a case study and discovered that out of the 12 turbines which it was designed for, we had only 8 installed which generate about 760MW or so compared to the 960MW it was designed for. So part of it should be the dishonesty of those at the helms of affairs and lack of will to see the power sector move forward.
netotse: where would this very large dam be built?
Normally, I'd say Niger state cos of the state's huge land mass but seeing that it has the two major power plants in Nigeria, I'd say we try somewhere down south close to the sea or maybe Kogi state.
bigfrancis21: I've actually thought a lot about Nigeria's power issues. Having a huge all-serving dam is wonderful, but we also need gas turbines to effectively utilize the naturally-occurring natural gas, a by-product of oil mining, which otherwise would have been wasted in gas flaring. The amount of natural gas wasted in gas flaring is enough to refine into cylinders and distribute round among Nigerians everyday for use at home as cooking gas. In fact, with all that natural gas, Nigerians need not to be paying to buy cooking gas. Citizens in countries where natural resources abound benefit from the privilege of having that resource in their backyard. All that wasted natural gas has to be utilized in some way into electricity production, which would also help to reduce environmental pollution and green gas effect.
Far from it, I'm not saying we should keep flaring the abundant gas that we have. You gave a wonderful solution to the use of the gas which is every household using it as cooking gas; in addition, I can say if we were a nation that really took science, technology and engineering serious, we'd have probably been doing research on gas-powered gas automobiles or might have developed concepts which will be looking at the commercial applications by now.
omonnakoda: What is the basis of this assertion. opinion of facts . Technically we know that single gas stations that generate over 5000 MW are possible and in existence. Japan a gas importer has at least 4 stations producing over 3500M each and at least one over 5000MW. NigeriaDo we have similar water resources to China that can sustain anything like the Three Gorge Dam. Nigeria is ranked No.9 in the world in terms of gas reserves so I believe gas is the most obvious and practical source of power for us Let us pause and think BEFORE speaking.
Thanks for that. Never knew there were gas turbine plants above 5000MW. It's an opinion BTW. I made my opinion on the fact that many countries do not rely solely on gas turbine power plants.
onitshaigbo: U wan BH to get opportunity to bomb one dam to flood half of the country? yeye pipu
You're a goat. Since Kainji dam has been there, have you heard of it being blown? If your IQ is very low and you cannot comprehend a simple comment, please refrain from quoting me. Thank you.
CHESSBOARD: who told you its not poor with those figures... some countires with just 20 million population generates 100s , we just 20 .. GEJ is doing everything to improve this esp the[b] gas turbines.[/b] if only federal xter will allow it grow...they should allow states to generate and distribute and send the excess to the grid
Many gas turbines will not give us the required power output we need in this country. That is where we make mistakes. Instead of building to many gas turbine stations and taking up land mass, why not build a very large dam like China did with their Three Gorge dam that generates about 22GW - the largest in the world while saving cost and land space?
No one should come here screaming how our population is big hence why electricity production is small compared to other African countries. Look at China.
fellis: Happy New Year in advance to everyone I'm following. Thanks for the educating/entertaining/funny/downright crazy/ xenophobic in some cases, posts
Thanks for making my 2014 on Nairaland better with your posts. Thanks for the politics threads, culture threads, feminist threads, beautyand fashion threads, art and painting threads, Naruto threads and so on and so forth. I wish you the best 2015 has to offer and I love you all. Happy New Year guys!
AreaFada2: The first reason is that jobs are very few.
If jobs were abundant, employers would be willing to train and retrain.
They should be talking about lack of self-employment training in tertiary insitutions. Self-employment should be a module taken throughout the course:
Self-Employment 101 to 505 as the case maybe. With experts who have created own jobs and succeeded drafted in as instructors.
This I love. To be honest, the entrepreneurial courses taken in universities most times are not taken serious by the lectures themselves. They ignore coming to class, even if they come, they dictate exactly what is in the textbook - like students can't read again.... I mean, it's annoying.
After watching a little trailer, I'm curious to watch the complete version.
Guys, a new twist here: For that Madara activating susanoo without his eyes, Itachi did something similar during his fight with Sasuke. His sharingan was not on, yet he was able to activate susanoo.
olabiz2010: Pls I need to configure my Lumia 630 for internet access(mtn). Kindly assist
Most times, settings come preinstalled and activated once you put your SIM card in. So go to the settings and check the access point. It should have something like this written....
I normally don't comment on issues about the president and his wife but C'mon, aside this, there's been others. Bottom line, she should not be too forward.
