Thanks for being concerned though.

Hmmmn...lemme advice.

Check her Social media wall (Facebook, Twitter, 2go anyone) to see when last she posted.

2ndly, visit her mobile network providers if they can assist you with any info thru her line

Do you think network providers do assist individuals in doing such?
Thanks though, note taken!

I don't know which section is appropriate for this, but I'll appreciate if Mods can assist in pushing it to the appropriate section. Thanks!

1. JAPAN'S UNDERWATER RUINS

Off the southern shore of Okinawa, Japan, under 20 to 100 feet of water lie enigmatic structures that may have been built by some ancient, “lost civilization”. Skeptics say the large, tiered formations are probably natural in origin (which seems crazy looking at the pictures). “Then, in late summer of the following year,” writes Frank Joseph in an article for Atlantis Rising, “another diver in Okinawa waters was shocked to see a massive arch or gateway of huge stone blocks beautifully fitted together in the manner of prehistoric masonry found among the Inca cities on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, in the Andes Mountains of South America.” This seems to confirm that these are manmade ruins. The architecture includes what appear to be paved streets and crossroads, large altar-like formations, staircases leading to broad plazas and processional ways surmounted by pairs of towering features resembling pylons. If it is a sunken city, it is huge. It’s been suggested that it might be the lost civilization of Mu or Lemuria (see above).

2. SUNKEN CITY OFF OF CUBA

In May 2001, an exciting discovery was made by Advanced Digital Communications (ADC) who were mapping the ocean bottom of Cuba’s territorial waters. Sonar readings revealed something unexpected and quite amazing 2,200 feet down: stones laid out in a geometric pattern that looked very much like the ruins of a city. “Nature couldn’t have built anything so symmetrical. This isn’t natural, but we don’t know what it is.” said Paul Weinzweig, of ADC. A great sunken city? National Geographic showed a great deal of interest in the site and was involved in subsequent investigations. In 2003, a minisub dove down to explore the structures. Paulina Zelitsky of ADC said they saw a structure that “looks like it could have been a large urban center. However, it would be totally irresponsible to say what it was before we have evidence.”

3. VOYAGES TO THE AMERICAS

Christopher Columbus is said to have “discovered” America, but of course we all know better than this, as long before him people/peoples had been there, even settled. Native Americans arrived there many centuries before Columbus, and there is good evidence that explorers from other civilizations beat Columbus here, too. Artifacts have now been found suggesting that ancient cultures explored the continent. Greek and Roman coins and pottery have been found in the U.S. and Mexico; Egyptian statues of Isis and Osiris were found in Mexico as well as evidence of Egyptians in the Grand Canyon (see above). Ancient Hebrew and Asian artifacts have also been found. Stories of travellers from distant lands in native myths and folklore also suggest probability.

The truth is, we know very little about early, far-traveling cultures.

4. MU OR LEMURIA

The legendary lost world of Mu, sometimes call Lemuria is nearly as famous as Atlantis and indeed, parallels it closely at times. According to tradition among many Pacific islands, Mu was an “Eden-like” tropical paradise located somewhere in the Pacific that sunk, along with all of its beautiful inhabitants, thousands of years ago (sounds familiar). Like Atlantis, there is ongoing debate as to whether it really existed and, if so, where.

5. EGYPTIAN TREASURE IN THE GRAND CANYON

The April 5, 1909 edition of the Arizona Gazette featured an article entitled “Explorations in Grand Canyon: Remarkable finds indicate ancient people migrated from Orient.” According to the article, the expedition was financed by the Smithsonian Institute and discovered artifacts that would, if verified, stand conventional history on its ear. Inside a cavern “hewn in solid rock by human hands” were found tablets bearing hieroglyphics, copper weapons and tools, statues of Egyptian deities and mummies. Although highly intriguing, the truth of this story is in doubt simply because the site has never been re-found. The Smithsonian disavows all knowledge of the discovery, and several expeditions searching for the cavern have come up empty-handed. Was the article just a hoax? “While it cannot be discounted that the entire story is an elaborate newspaper hoax,” writes researcher/explorer David Hatcher Childress, “the fact that it was on the front page, named the prestigious Smithsonian Institution, and gave a highly detailed story that went on for several pages, lends a great deal to its credibility. It is hard to believe such a story could have come out of thin air.” Supporters also claim that the restricted areas (of which even workers at the Canyon) are evidence of the cover-up.

6. THE SPIRIT CAVE MUMMY

In 1940, husband-and-wife archaeological team, Sydney and Georgia Wheeler found a mummy in ‘Spirit Cave’ thirteen miles east of Fallon, Nevada. Upon entering Spirit Cave they discovered the remains of two people wrapped in tule matting. One set of remains, buried deeper than the other, had been partially mummified (the head and right shoulder). The Wheelers, with the assistance of local residents, recovered a total of sixty-seven artifacts from the cave. These artifacts were examined at the Nevada State Museum where they were estimated to be between 1,500 and 2,000 years old. 54 years later in 1994, University of California, Riverside anthropologist R. Erv Taylor examined seventeen of the Spirit Cave artifacts using mass spectrometry. The results indicated that the mummy was approximately 9,400 years old — older than any previously known North American mummy. Further study determined that the mummy exhibits Caucasoid characteristics resembling the Ainu (an Ethnic Japanese people), although a definitive affiliation has not been established.

7. THE EVER OMINOUS MAYAN CALENDAR

There’s been a lot of hoopla over the supposed prophecies of the Mayan calendar. More people fear it, perhaps, than feared the predicted catastrophes of the year 2000. All the fretting is based on the finding that the Mayan “Long Count” calendar ends on a date that corresponds to our December 21, 2012. What does this mean? The end of the world through some global cataclysm or war? The beginning of a new era, a new Age for mankind? Such prophecies have a long tradition of not coming to pass. But the only way we’ll find out for sure is to wait and see.

8. LOCATION OF ATLANTIS

There are many, many, many theories as to the true location of Atlantis. We get the legend of Atlantis from Plato who wrote about the beautiful, technologically advanced continent-sized island back in 370 B.C., but his description of its location was limited and vague. Many, of course, conclude that Atlantis never really existed. Those who think it did exist have sought evidence or at least clues in almost every corner of the globe. Edgar Cayce’s famous prophecies said remnants of Atlantis would be found around Bermuda, and in 1969, geometric stone formations were found near Bimini (a.k.a. The Bimini Road) that believers said confirmed Cayce’s prediction. Other proposed locations for Atlantis include Antarctica, Mexico, off the coast of England, possibly even off the coast of Cuba (see below). The controversy and theories will likely continue until someone uncovers a sign saying: “Welkommen zu Atlantis! Eat at Joe’s.”

This one is still a mystery to me despite how fascinating it is.

9. THE NAZCA LINES

The famous Nazca lines can be found in a desert about 200 miles south of Lima, Peru. On a plain measuring approximately 37 miles long and one mile wide are etched lines and figures that have puzzled the scientific world since their discovery in the 1930s. The lines run perfectly straight, some parallel to one another, many intersecting, making the lines look from the air like ancient airport runways. This prompted Erich von Daniken in his book Chariots of the Gods to suggest that they actually were runways for extraterrestrial craft. More intriguing are the gigantic figures of 70-some animals carved into the ground – a monkey, a spider, and a hummingbird among others. The puzzle is that these lines and figures are of such a scale that they can only be recognized from a high altitude. So what is their significance? Some believe they have an astronomical purpose, while others think they served in religious ceremonies. A recent theory suggests the lines lead to sources of precious water. The truth is, no one really knows.

Understanding our past is what historians and anthropologists seek to do. Looking back we will witness civilizations rise and fall, as humanity walks down a very repetitive path of construction and destruction. Still, there are some ancient cultures that seem incredibly alien to us, legends and strange encounters cast nothing but shadow over some of these peoples. Some are said to be very advanced and tranquil only to vanish with some cataclysm and others, despite stories and accounts of encounters, never seem to have existed. Here is a list of mysteries surrounding ancient peoples.


10. AGE OF THE PYRAMIDS

Most Egyptologists believe the Great Sphinx on the Giza plateau is about 4,500 years old. But that number is just that – a belief, a theory, not a fact. As Robert Bauval says in ‘The Age of the Sphinx’, “there was no inscriptions – not a single one – either carved on a wall or a stela or written on the throngs of papyri” that associates the Sphinx with this time period. So when was it built? John Anthony West challenged the accepted age of the monument when he noted the vertical weathering on its base, which could only have been caused by long exposure to water in the form of heavy rains. In the middle of the desert? Where did the water come from? It so happens that this area of the world experienced such rains – about 10,500 years ago! This would make the Sphinx more than twice its currently accepted age. Bauval and Graham Hancock have calculated that the Great Pyramid likewise dates back to about 10,500 B.C. – predating the Egyptian civilization. This raises the questions: Who built them and why?

I’ll just point out that the general sphinx shape is a natural formation in that part of the world, due to winds + sand. Egyptologists point out that the Egyptians would have noticed the cat-like shape, and then carved in the features.

OoLahlah or what are you called.......from the previous thread on the 'South African guy that claimed to have slept with over a hundred of his Twitter followers', you've been making comments about enjoying the hate talks and e-fights between both country-folks. If you're very observant, you'll see that your colleagues (i.e. MduZa, LeSudAfricaine et al) have backed out, and its not because they don't have articulated facts, most of them have much more reasonable facts than what you're saying but they're mature and well disciplined enough to maintain a peaceful atmosphere by keeping silent, they're not fools but wise and it will be well appreciated if you follow suit.

Thank you!

OohLalah:


A Nigerian once told me in Cape Town CBD that this is not Kayelitsha, i must go back to Kayelitsha. Imagine the nerve? That's when shiit hit the fan. Thats the thing our men are brought up and taught not to talk too much it's women's thing to talk too much i guess Nigerians are taught just the opposite. .

Please and please...let's not start the fury commentaries all over again, for heavens's sake. You can as well just try to pacify both league instead of fueling it. You've spoken enough truth already, he who is wise will understand.

Please just be calm and passive, life is too short to live with anger or hate.
Plus your heart is too occupied to have space for bashings.

Just try to make everything peaceful.
#gracias

I love female game geeks.........I'm looking for one sef. As long as she's really tough with pad, you'll never be bored plus most gurls dislike playing games, so when you ses one, hold on to her tight. They're also very intelligent.

#Sighs!

I've been on this thread reading every drop of verbal explosives from the both sides (Nigerians and South Africans). It's more of a blind foresight on both sides to seeing the positive outcomes of being in agreement on trivial matters as this.

'comparasm begets hatred, malice, provocation and other ill vices. It spurs aggression between friends and blinds them to becoming foes worse than that of Hitler and resulting to prejudice being fueled in the mind of both parties.

Nigeria is a blessed nation / South Africa is also a blessed nation
Both countries have diversified atmosphere in terms of corporeal and incorporeals that can attain the best positive results if put into effective use and thereby sustained.

Etc, those are the names I can remember.

We are all blacks, we are Africans. We are one people.
We won't gain anything when we keep dwelling on the past and failures of our great countries. We've spewed hate among each other, we've balderdash the pride of our great nation just because we want to drive a point that neither both parties are obvious of.
From all I've read, from all I've deduced, it's just very pertinent to make mention of intolerance from both parties.

None of you guys are wrong, all of your points have elements of truth in them but.......after all these, what next?

If South Africans can find joy and comfort on a Nigerian forum, it shows how accommodating we Nigerians are and it also shows how friendly the south Africans are to mingle with us and to share views and ideas together.

I'm talking too much already......
All I'm saying is.......let's ignore the flaws and make obvious the good that resides in each and every one of us regardless of nationality and tribal differences.

God bless Nigeria
God bless South Africa
God bless Africa.

#Thanks.

Op! Your work is not bad but.......you still need to improve your drawing skills in the area of making the nose of your drawings look real, when you perfect that part.

Plus this isn't painting....

Nice work!

Its obvious most nairalanders don't understand her point of view.
She's not balderdashing Olajumoke, she's talking about the people surrounding her and exploiting her progress in monetary or contract terms.

Like she said.....if Olajumoke is not careful, she might lose everything, she's trying to tell olajumoke to Wisen up and be careful of the vultures surrouding her.

I also think about that day too especially after my elder sister's wedding, I was imagining myself doing all those dance n body movement thingy.

Anyways, I'm already planning to do mine out of the country, far away from everyone where only the two of us can go to the registry and church to get married. Me, bae and two other persons (besties) plus pastor altogether making 5.

Anybody that wants to attend should buy flight ticket.

I just keep wondering.....then it means SW tried throughout all those years they used cocoa money to build Nigeria's Economy. No complaints, no violence, no segregation and during all these periods, peace existed. Oil Money and violence are synonymous.

God bless Nigeria.......we will stand United.
If you can't live with others, it shows how limited you've grown.

Everyone spills whatever comes to their mind without weighing the impact of what they say.

As the saying goes, you can't be more than what you think or believe. Have you ever wondered why the United States use those three words "God Bless America?"
For every single person that says those three words is consciously or unconsciously blessing the country. Nigeria is not a location.....we (citizens) are the one that makes up Nigeria not the landmass.

Your negative thoughts and comments on the country goes much farther than the moment you just spew it. Every Nigerian curses himself every single day without acknowledging the impact of what he/she is saying.

Some will come here and be mentioning Karma.....karma deals with both negative and positive. What you say is what you get.

We are Nigeria(ns), let's use our mouth to bless instead of curse. Some will think I'm supporting the administration. I'm just stating the obvious and my perception on how the law of the universe goes.

#GodblessNigeria

She might just be saying this to gain attention......even real olosho will fight you when you call her olosho.

butanep:


You actually spoke in a matured and experienced way. You must be really above 25.

Most ladies see dating/ outing as a period to feast and that is a backward mentality.

Lol......I'm not up to 24 bro, not less than 21 either.
It's just the truth, the way things are going out of norm these days is just absurd.

Most times all I do is read comments but seeing this wayward post, it's high time I say something.

Most naija ladies have taken dates to be an Avenue to feast. Going on a first time date is a chance where the guy and the gurl try to gain acquaintances (know each other more), its in his choice to offer anything, maybe coffee, ice cream or chin-chin sef just to make sure the lady is not gonna get bored or at least enjoy the chit chat.

It's very annoying and out of the traditional way for ladies to be expecting chicken lap or full chicken option on a first date........most of them watch American movies o. White guys ask a gurl out by saying 'let's go have a drink or coffee or stuffs.

Ordering expensive food is just an act of trying to impress the gurl which is a 'fail' in first date rule. (Never go out of your way to impress a lady), but our naija ladies take it as a norm.

Before you think I'm a broke guy.....don't forget your not the one feeding me. Just stating the obvious!

To be truthful and candid, everything seems slow or rather grounded to a halt.
Based on Buhari's presidential campaign's speeches, most of what he said might not be difficult when viewed from the atmosphere of the previous government. Vandalisation of pipelines were very limited and crude oil price was still at it's peak compared to what's going on now where oil prices is very low.
To call a spade, spade; It's not only Nigeria that's suffering from the lack of fund hardship. I learnt Saudi Arabia is also trying to borrow fund to appease their budget deficit.
Times are hard........everything will soon be alright by His grace, let's just keep praying rather than bashing.
#God bless Nigeria
#God bless Nigerians

My very close female friend does almost all that......makes me respect her more.
But now sha, we're beefing after a little argument and she has refused to come online since 3 days ago.
I'm missing her like now

I just received an alert from the bank just now, money has been refunded back into my account. I think it was due to network but I was debited since yesterday till now, I have just been credited.........Maybe I was wrong about the guy but from what rooneyboy said about scammers on his comment, I requested for his account number, he sorta preferred airtime transfer. But all the same, my account has been credited with the money.

charix:
When they say only use rooneyboy on this forum una no go hear. Sorry OP, too many scammers here. Do a search for only reliable sellers before engaging anyone.

Rooneyboy abi....ok
Infact in not doing again......I'd rather subscribe with the faithful mtn I can't see who delivers promptly than some fellows you're trying to assist to grow their business.
Thanks for the tip tho
