shocked shocked

So I followed my sis to this church where the pastor is an acclaimed "man of God"..

He was prophesying and as usual people were cheering him and stuffs like that..

Before this.. This same pastor once made a fire wood to catch fire by just praying (so my sis told me), I just laughed because in my head I've already visualized how he tricked them, but trust me, religious people will never agree they were tricked...

So wow!!

Yesterday, he was "prophesying" to this woman, and it got to a point where he told her she was a baby killer, that she kills and sells babies to alhajis..

The woman then said "you are a liar!!", she then picked her bible and was walking out of the church...

The pastor was like, "are you calling me a liar? Aaaahhhhh!! I command you to run mad!!!", and alas, the woman "ran mad".. She was just shaking her body anyhow (too much nollywood have even made people forget how mad people are supposed to act), she pulled her clothes leaving just her pants and bra amidst shaking like she's having one holy orgasm grin ... The pastor went further and said "I command you to also go blind"..

The woman was "blind", touching her eyes anyhow, and the pastor said, "if you want to be OK again, you need to confess!!"


The woman was like " I'll confess!!", and she started confessing...

After all that, the pastor then "restored her sight, and her brain"... Everybody was like "Jesssuuuuusss!!!! ", people were like "I don dy fear this man o", everyone was eh, making noise!!

Amidst all these events, I was just laughing grin see why..
grin grin grin grin

scammers everywhere from MMM to Npower to pastors n Alfas to even Mr presidio.

the human brain grin

Einstein had the capability to utilize around 3 % of his brain processing capability.

other humans utilize less than that.

just imagine what u can do with 100% activated brain .

the ancient sages/rishis of India had the capability to do so according to ancient texts, which endowed them with extra ordinary power. (of course there is no way to verify it grin)

let me tell u a story of a American soldier who lost his right hand during combat in vietnam.

a human bain has 2 parts
1.conscious part (the voluntary part which we/our senses can control)
2.unconscious/subconscious part (the involuntary part which we/our senses cannot control)

actions like writing , moving comes under conscious part of the brain

actions like heartbeat , dreaming , reflex comes under subconscious part of the brain

that soldier who had lost one of his hand came back home and settled down with his wife.

the soldier had a very old habit of drinking coffee while reading newspaper while sitting on the porch.

one day as usual he was on the poach reading the newspaper when hi wife bought his cup of coffee , which she put next to him.

the man instinctively raised the coffee cup and sipped it.

the wife got the shock of her life grin

because the coffee cup got lifted by his non existent hand . shocked shocked shocked shocked

when his wife screamed the cup got dropped.

he was totally oblivious to what had happened.

and this is what had happened.

instincts / reflexes / habits r controlled by the subconscious brain out of reach of our conscious control.

the mans habit of of using his right hand got imprinted into the subconscious brain due to regular habit,

the fact that the right hand is missing is not recognized by the subconscious brain since he was born with it and the subconscious brain still believed the existence of his right hand.

and only his conscious brain was aware that he had lost his right hand .

just like we we slap our thighs when a mosquito sits on our legs without even looking at it , due to force of habit/reflex , similarly the mans subconscious brain somehow managed to create a energy replica of his non existent right hand and used the same energy replica to lift the cup same as he used to when he had his right hand intact.

however when his wife screamed , his conscious brain took over , as his 5 senses came online ie he became aware of his surroundings .


many of u will be skeptical of this incident, however let me add yogis under clinical supervision in America were able to stop their heart beat which was previously considered impossible.

they were also able to regulate their body temperature , one side of the palm was made +-5 degree hotter while the opposite side +-5 degree colder , which again is considered impossible because heart beat and body temperature regulation comes under the unconscious/subconscious brain and cannot be manipulated by will shocked shocked

we dream when the subconscious takes over , also good sleeping is under the control of subconscious brain. dreams produced during deep sleep r always hazy , which our conscious brain is not active and therefor cannot recollect it completely, however there is some spill over.

i hope u realize the immense power of the brain , ancient rishis used to say that one whose brain is 100% activated (ie awakening of kundanili or samadhi) he becomes one with the universe . ie he can harness the energy of the entire universe at will.
just like in the movie Lucy.

Project Thor :: orbital Kinetic Bombardment

@kikuyu1 and others

A kinetic bombardment (sometimes called a mass drop) is a fairly simple concept. Mass is dropped. In other words, the idea behind a kinetic bombardment is to take something massive, and well, drop it.
It is the act of attacking a planetary surface with an inert projectile, where the destructive force comes from the kinetic energy of the projectile impacting at very high velocities. The concept is encountered in science fiction and is thought to have originated during the Cold War.
Non-orbital bombardments with kinetic projectiles, such as lobbing stones with siege engines such as catapults or trebuchets are considered siege warfare, not kinetic bombardment.

And wouldn't you know, humanity has been using kinetic bombardments (in a sense) for thousands of years. If it comes from a non-horizontal direction, doesn't use explosives, and has a blunt impact then it's technically a kinetic bombardment. A particularly ancient example occurred during the ice age when hunters would lure mammoths and other prey into lower areas, then drop heavy rocks on them from above. More modern examples can be found in the World War 2 and Cold War eras when multiple bombs were developed that were designed to weigh as much as possible and be dropped from large heights. While the intended purpose of this was to have the bombs penetrate the earth and explode underground, testing revealed that the massive forces involved (imagine 22,000 pounds being dropped from almost 12,000 feat and moving at nearly supersonic speed upon impact) would effectively cause two shock-waves, one when the bomb landed and one when it exploded.

Now imagine, instead of using a bomb or a small load of rocks to attack the earth, you decide to use something a bit more massive.

Project Thor is an idea for a weapons system that launches kinetic projectiles from Earth orbit to damage targets on the ground. Jerry Pournelle originated the concept while working in operations research at Boeing in the 1950s before becoming a science-fiction writer.

The most described system is "an orbiting tungsten telephone pole with small fins and a computer in the back for guidance". The weapon can be down-scaled, an orbiting "crowbar" rather than a pole.The system described in the 2003 United States Air Force (USAF) report was that of 20-foot-long (6.1 m), 1-foot-diameter (0.30 m) tungsten rods, that are satellite controlled, and have global strike capability, with impact speeds of Mach 10.

The time between deorbiting and impact would only be a few minutes, and depending on the orbits and positions in the orbits, the system would have a world-wide range.[citation needed] There is no requirement to deploy missiles, aircraft or other vehicles. Although the SALT II (1979) prohibited the deployment of orbital weapons of mass destruction, it did not prohibit the deployment of conventional weapons. The system is prohibited by neither the Outer Space Treaty nor the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.

The idea is that the weapon would inflict damage because it moves at orbital velocities, at least 9 kilometers per second. Smaller weapons can deliver measured amounts of energy as small as a 225 kg conventional bomb. Some systems are quoted as having the yield of a small tactical nuclear bomb. These designs are envisioned as a bunker buster.

In the case of the system mentioned in the 2003 USAF report above, a 6.1m x 0.3m tungsten cylinder impacting at Mach 10 has a kinetic energy equivalent to approximately 11.5 tons of TNT (or 7.2 tons of dynamite). The mass of such a cylinder is itself greater than 9 tons, so it is clear that the practical applications of such a system are limited to those situations where its other characteristics provide a decisive advantage - a conventional bomb/warhead of similar weight to the tungsten rod, delivered by conventional means, provides similar destructive capability and is a far more practical method.

The highly elongated shape and high density are to enhance sectional density and therefore minimize kinetic energy loss due to air friction and maximize penetration of hard or buried targets. The larger device is expected to be quite good at penetrating deeply buried bunkers and other command and control targets. The smaller "crowbar" size might be employed for anti-armor, anti-aircraft, anti-satellite and possibly anti-personnel use.

The weapon would be very hard to defend against. It has a very high closing velocity and a small radar cross-section. Launch is difficult to detect. Any infra-red launch signature occurs in orbit, at no fixed position. The infra-red launch signature also has a small magnitude compared to a ballistic missile launch. One drawback of the system is that the weapon's sensors would almost certainly be blind during atmospheric reentry due to the plasma sheath that would develop ahead of it, so a mobile target could be difficult to hit if it performed any unexpected maneuvering. The system would also have to cope with atmospheric heating from re-entry, which could melt non-tungsten components of the weapon.

While the larger version might be individually launched, the smaller versions would be launched from "pods" or "carriers" that contained several missiles.

The phrase "Rods from God" is also used to describe the same concept. A USAF report called them "hypervelocity rod bundles".

US Aurora programme-TR-3B

@kikuyu1 u will find it interesting

and for those who dont know US did lots of research on nuclear powered aircraft's which is well documented.


The TR-3B triangle-shaped nuclear-powered aerospace platform, built in the mid-1980s by Lockheed Martin and Teledyne Ryan, was developed under the Aurora programme—a top-secret, multi-tier developmental roadmap for advanced aerospace vehicles. The TR-3B’s outer coating is reactive to electrical stimulation and can change colour, reflectiveness, and radar absorptiveness. This is also the first US vehicle to use quasi-crystals in the vehicle’s skin. This polymer skin, when used in conjunction with the TR-3B’s ECM suite, can make the vehicle look like a small aircraft or a flying cylinder or even tricking radars into falsely detecting a variety of aircraft, no aircraft, or several aircraft at various locations. A circular, mercury-based plasma-filled accelerator ring called the Magnetic Field Disrupter (MFD) surrounds the rotatable crew compartment and is far ahead of any imaginable technology. The plasma is pressurized at 250,000 atmospheres at a temperature of 150 degrees Kelvin, and accelerated to 50,000 RPM to create a super-conductive plasma with the resulting gravity disruption. Sandia National Labs and Lawrence Livermore Labs co-developed the MFD, which generates a magnetic-vortex field that disrupts or neutralises the effects of gravity on mass within proximity by 89%. This is not anti-gravity, for anti-gravity provides a repulsive force that can be used for propulsion. The MFD creates a disruption of the Earth’s gravitational field upon the mass within the circular accelerator. The mass of the circular accelerator—and all mass within the accelerator, such as the crew capsule and the nuclear reactor—are reduced by almost 90%. This causes the effect of making a vehicle extremely light and able to outperform and outmanoeuvre (horizontally and vertically) any aircraft yet constructed. Except, of course, those ‘Unconventional Flying Objects’ (UFO) not of Earthly origin. The TR-3B’s aerodynamic performance is limited only the stresses that its human aircrew can endure. Which is a lot, really, considering along with the 89% reduction in mass, the G forces are also reduced by 89%. The TR-3B’s aircrew can therefore comfortably sustain up to 40Gs which, when reduced by 89%, will be about 4.2 Gs.

By using electromagnetic forces to contain rotating systems, it is possible for the masses to reach relativistic velocities. Thus, a comparatively small amount of matter, if dense enough and moving fast enough, can produce usable gravitational effects. The requirement for a dense material moving at relativistic speeds would explain the use of Mercury plasma (heavy ions). If the plasma really spins at 50,000 RPM and the Mercury ions are also moving in a tight pitched spiral, then the individual ions would be moving probably hundreds, perhaps thousands of times faster than the bulk plasma spin, in order to execute their ‘screw thread’ motions. It is quite conceivable that the ions could be accelerated to relativistic speeds in this manner. For this to happen, it is necessary to strip the free electrons from the plasma, making a positively charged plasma, since the free electrons would tend to counter-rotate and reduce the efficiency of the MFD. One of Dr Albert Einstein’s postulates of general relativity (GR) says that gravitational mass and inertial mass are equivalent. This is consistent with claims of the inertial mass within the mercury-based plasma ring also being reduced by 89%. This also explains why the TR-3B is triange-shaped. Since it still requires conventional thrusters for propulsion, the thrusters would need to be located outside of the ‘mass reduction zone’ or else the mass of the thrusters reaction material would also be reduced, making them terribly inefficient. Since it requires a minimum of three legs to have a stable stool, it follows that one would need a minimum of three thrusters to have a stable aerospace platform. Three thrusters, located outside of the plasma ring, plus appropriate structural support, would naturally lead to a triangular shape for the vehicle.

The nuclear reactor heats the liquid hydrogen and injects liquid oxygen in the supersonic thruster nozzles (developed by Rockwell), so that the hydrogen burns concurrently in the liquid oxygen afterburner. This multi-mode propulsion system can operate in the atmosphere, with thrust being provided by the nuclear reactor, in the upper atmosphere, with hydrogen propulsion; and in orbit, with the combined hydrogen/oxygen propulsion. Directional propulsion is thus provided by the three multi-mode thrusters mounted at each bottom corner of the triangular platform. The TR-3B is a sub-Mach 9 vehicle until it reaches altitudes above 100,000 feet. It is 600 feet across, which would make it similar in size to an aircraft carrier. At least three prototypes were built, each measuring about 60 metres across, and the operational model is about 180 metres (600 feet) across. The TR-3B can thus be used as a reconnaissance platform with an indefinite loiter time.

Politics › We Won’t Allow 2face Anti-government Protest – Police by giles14(op): 3:40pm On Feb 02, 2017
Nigerian police said Thursday they would not allow an anti-government protest planned in the commercial hub Lagos by music star 2Face.
The popular Afro-Pop artist, whose real name is Innocent Idibia, called on Nigerians earlier this week to march on February 6 in protest of the government’s handling of the country’s economic crisis.
“Information reaching us revealed that some hoodlums are planning to hijack the peaceful protest. As such, we won’t allow it to hold in Lagos,” Lagos police commissioner Fatai Owoseni told AFP.
“We know that 2Face does not have the capacity to contain such a crowd and we will not fold our hands and watch while things go out of hand,” Owoseni said.
In a video posted on his Facebook account Tuesday, 2Face urged Nigerians to come out in a “peaceful and articulate manner” for the march.
“The need for urgent solutions to the challenges facing Nigerians has become very clear,” he said in the video.
“Things are not getting better for the majority, we are still where we are, poor and desperate. I will no longer be quiet.”
It’s unusual in Nigeria for a celebrity to take such a vocal political position.
But when 2Face floated the idea of a protest last month the idea quickly gained traction in a country frustrated by a galloping inflation rate and sluggish growth.
Nigeria’s fortunes fell with the collapse in the global price of oil, triggering a recession that has been aggravated by rebel attacks on oil infrastructure and controversial monetary policies, which have led to a debilitating shortage of dollars.

the air force chief was asked a specific question and he gave a specific answer

Having rejected indigenously built
‘Tejas’ as too heavy, the Indian Navy has
launched a Request for Information to
procure 57 multi-role combat aircraft for
its carrier. Last month, Navy Chief Admiral
Sunil Lanba had said the “present LCA does
not meet the carrier capability required by
the Navy”
. He had said the service would
continue to support its development but “at
the same time we will seek aircraft
elsewhere which can operate on the
aircraft carrier”.

for the layman/common man it means ( Navy Chief Admiral Sunil Lanba reply) , LCA MK1 is not suitable for Indian navy requirements of carrier based operations.

for the informed and for the people in the loop it means (something which the Navy Chief Admiral Sunil Lanba did not say since he was not asked specifically ) that LCA MK1 was a TD which was used and will be used to test and validate carrier borne technologies and not for operational role . simply becz navy 5 years ago came up with the LCAMK2 idea with more powerful engines optimized for carrier ops from the design phase itself.

also the jackass and clueless media does not realize that the RFI is tailored to get the Rafale M into the navy and to take advantage of the RAFALE MII (TOT / industrial infrastructure being developed for Rafale ) associated with the indian air force rafale acquisition.
do u know this , i guess not because no media reported it.

i dont have to rely on media reports and is the very reason why i barely post new/media reports

also nobody here has to agree with me , if u r already convinced with u views / opinions then why the heck even ask me ?
composite materials were used extensively in your Tejas and its still heavy .wot would have happened is if it was an all metal airframe like the Jf17.

it might end not taking off.

you guys need to go back to the drawing board or better still poach some of the remaining Ukrainian technicians

APC Okays Nigeria-Niger Crude Oil Pipeline Refining Plan




The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun on Wednesday welcomed ongoing bilateral discussions between Nigeria and the Republic of Niger which will result in piping crude oil from the Republic of Niger for refining at the Kaduna Refining and Petrochemical Company (KRPC).
This was made known in a press release issued by the Party’s Assistant Director of Publicity, Edegbe Odemwingie on Wednesday.
He said this during a courtesy visit on the APC National Chairman by the Republic of Niger, Minister of Petroleum, Foumakoye Gado and Ambassador of the Republic of Niger to Nigeria, H.E. Mansour Maman Hadj Daddo at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja.
The APC National Secretary, Hon. Mai Mala Buni; APC National Treasurer, Alh. Bala Mohammed Gwagwarwa and the Chief of Staff to the APC National Chairman, Edwin Ikhinmwin were present at the courtesy visit.
The Nigerien petroleum minister, who doubles as the scribe of the country’s governing Party for Democracy and Socialism (PNDS-Tarayya), stated that the cordial executive relationship between the two countries should be replicated at Party level.
Gado said: “We are here to strengthen the relationship between the two countries specifically the political parties of both countries. We acknowledge the cordial relationship between the President of Republic of Niger and Nigeria hence the need for us to come to the Party to strengthen the relationship. We believe that the cordial executive relationship between the two countries should be replicated at Party level.
“It is line with this understanding that the two leaders (Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari and Nigerien President, Mahamadou Issoufou) agreed to channel crude oil from Republic of Niger to the Kaduna refinery for refining. We have had discussion with the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mr. Maikanti Baru to facilitate the plan.
“The project is unprecedented because in Africa we are used to exporting crude oil instead of refining it within the continent. This is the first time two countries are coming together for this sort of bilateral crude-refining arrangement.”
The Nigerien petroleum minister who sought the support of the APC in ensuring the success of the plan told Odigie-Oyegun that another meeting was scheduled with his counterpart, Nigeria’s Minister of State, Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachikwu.
The APC National Chairman thanked Niger for the cordial relationship and cooperation with Nigeria particularly in the fight against the insurgency in Nigeria’s North East.
He said: “Between the Republic of Niger and Nigeria, the bonds have been long-standing. One was not surprised when President Muhammadu Buhari came into office and one of the first things he did was to go round our neighbouring states because we live together, we interact together and we need each other.
“Infact, one must say thank you over the collaboration on the insurgency. The collaboration of the neighbouring countries has made it possible to contain and militarily defeat the insurgents. At that level, I am glad that the presidents of both countries are in very close terms.
“I want to thank you for also taking up this collaboration at the Party level. I want to assure you that we will live up to the challenge and reciprocate this wonderful gesture that you have started today. I will make sure that the conversation between our Parties is strengthened.
“It is already bearing fruit with the proposal for Republic of Niger to supply crude to the Kaduna refinery. For us it will make great economic sense for the refinery in Kaduna to function properly.
“Moreso, in the face of disruptions we have in the southern parts of our country. It is a major economic advantage for that project to be expedited and come to fruition as soon as possible.
“At the Party level, we assure you that everything will be done to ensure that those who are involved expedite the discussion and agreement so that the plan can be made operational as soon as possible.”

Phones › Re: Why People Are Deleting Uber From Their Phones After Trump’s Executive Order by giles14(m): 11:34am On Jan 31, 2017
Mikeshiangala:
On Saturday night, thousands of protesters around the u.s flooded airports to speak out against
President Donald Trump’s newly signed executive order barring travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries.

The New York Taxi Workers Alliance quickly showed its support, calling on social media for drivers to avoid John F. Kennedy International Airport between 6 and 7 pm Eastern time on Saturday.

The ride-hailing app Uber, however, took a very different public-facing approach, saying at 7:36 pm on Twitter that it was lowering prices — by eliminating “surge pricing” — around JFK Airport.

Even though the surge pricing announcement came after the scheduled taxi strike, many people on social media took it to suggest that Uber was trying to break up or counteract the strike and acting in support of — or at least trying to profit off — Trump’s “Muslim ban.”

In response, the Twitter hashtag #DeleteUber quickly took off, with people posting screenshots of them deleting the Uber app from their phones.

Uber has since said that it wasn’t trying to come out in support of Trump’s executive order, break up the strike, or profit from the situation.

“We’re sorry for any confusion about our earlier tweet — it was not meant to break up any strike,” the company told Business Insider. “We wanted people to know they could use Uber to get to and from JFK at normal prices, especially last night.”

An Uber spokesperson also told Fortune that “the decision to turn off surge pricing was made specifically to avoid profiting from increased demand during the protest. The company has previously made a similar commitment to limiting surge pricing during disasters , after being accused of taking advantage of riders in times of need.”

Prior to the strike, Uber CEO Travis Kalanick spoke out against the executive order on Facebook. He also said that the company will financially compensate employees affected by the order — meaning those who are overseas and unable to reenter the US — during the at least three months the ban is active.
But the statement came out before the strikes, and it didn’t seem to mitigate much of the rage against the company.

Lyft, Uber’s main competitor, has meanwhile responded in a different way to Trump’s order,
vowing to donate $1 million to the American Civil Liberties Union, a civil rights group that is fighting the ban in court.

Politics › Re: Anambra Gas Reserve: DPR Certifies Re-Entry by giles14(m): 10:54am On Jan 31, 2017
AmericanQuarter:
The Department of Petroleum Resources has given approval for re-entry into the Gas Reserve at Umuerum in Ayamelum Council Area.
Governor Willie Obiano revealed this when he attended a function of the Catholic Archdiocese of Onitsha at St Mary's Parish, Umuerum.

Governor Obiano who noted that Umuerum is blessed with one of the largest Gas Deposit in the Country, recalled how a multi-national Oil Company, Shell had discovered the Mineral resource 40 years ago and capped it because they were after Premium Motor Spirit, PMS.

He said what is delaying the full exploration of the Gas Reserve is ongoing negotiations with a South African Investor who is to take over the project and expressed the hope that when operational, the project will create lots of jobs and wealth opportunities for people of Ayamelum area.

Governor Obiano observed that due to the large expanse of virgin arable land which the Ayamelum possesses, the area holds great prospects for the future of the state which is being repositioned to anchor on Agriculture, assuring that his government will sustain its support to farmers in the area towards the achievement of its agricultural revolution initiative.

The governor called on people of the area to utilize the Continuous Voter Registration exercise which will take place later in the year to ensure that they are eligible to vote, reminding them that support for his administration will guarantee the realization of all the lofty projects ongoing across the state.
