OCTAVO:
1. Belcher’s Sea Snake

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Belcher%E2%80%99s-Sea-Snake-Cal-Donovam-Flickr.jpg

You may be somewhat familiar with these sea snakes. They are quite common, and you may have seen them in films or even in person. They are recognizable from their stripes. Usually these snakes have no interest in confrontation, but if one feels threatened, it may bite you. Three out of four times this will be no big deal, since only about one quarter of Belcher’s Sea Snakes carry venom. Those that do though have the highest concentration of venom in existence. Just a few milligrams has the capacity to kill thousands of human beings, making this the most poisonous snake in the world. Nonetheless, most Belcher’s Sea Snakes are quite harmless thanks to a
docile personality and a lack of venom.

2. Rattlesnake

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Rattlesnake-Tom-Spinker-Flickr.jpg

When most people think of poisonous snakes, the rattlesnake springs to mind pretty quickly. These snakes are found throughout the Americas and are actually a type of viper. Their name comes of course from the rattle which is
found at the end of the tail and which creates a distinctive noise. Eastern Diamondbacks are the most poisonous of all rattlesnakes. Thankfully, only about 4% of bites result in fatalities with prompt treatment, but untreated, any rattlesnake bite has the potential to kill. The venom can also cause permanent damage to organs and may even lead to the loss of a limb.

3. Death Adder

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Death-Adder-Loza-Tarantula-Tamer-Flickr.jpg

You know that famous legend about Cleopatra using a snake to kill herself?
The type of snake she supposedly used was a death adder. You can find these snakes throughout Australia, New Guinea, and other regions. A bite can result in paralysis, respiratory arrest, and death inside of only six hours. With
fast treatment, a patient is unlikely to die, but without treatment, about 50% of bites are lethal. Death adders also prey on other snakes.

4. Inland Taipan

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Inland-Taipan-Matthew-Klein-Flickr.jpg

While it’s difficult to be as impressed by the Inland Taipan after learning about the concentration of venom in a Belcher’s Sea Snake bite, it’d be foolish to discount the Taipan just because its bite can only kill as many as 100 people! Taipans usually avoid human contact, however, and you are unlikely to ever encounter one.

5. Eastern Brown Snake

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Eastern-Brown-Snake-Matt-Summerville-Flickr.jpg

This type of snake is among the few which are actually aggressive. It is commonly found in Australia, and may be found in populated areas like cities, not just remote locations. If it perceives someone as a threat, it will actually
chase that person out of its territory. If the snake is not confident of its safety, it may decide to bite. If it does so, it may bite many times during a
single attack. Less than half contain venom, but those that do can cause paralysis or death. Because of its proximity to population centers and its aggression, you could argue the Eastern Brown Snake is the most dangerous snake in the world.

6. Blue Krait

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Blue-Krait-Markus-Oulehla-Flickr.jpg

This snake is not as well known as some, but its venom is 16 times more potent than that of the cobra! There also is no really good antivenin to use, which makes it quite deadly. The Blue Krait tends to keep to itself and usually only comes out at night, though, so it is generally easy to avoid.

7. Black Mamba

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Black-Mamba-Victor-Fernando-Ocampo-Flickr.jpg

This snake is usually found in Africa. A single bite contains enough venom to kill ten people (Just ten? You’re still thinking about that sea snake, aren’t you). It can travel as fast as 20 km/h, which makes it the fastest snake on
the planet. The Black Mamba will bite a number of times when it attacks, and if the bite is not treated, it is almost always going to result in death.

8. Tiger Snake

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Tiger-Snake-Barry-Kiepe-Flickr.jpg

This snake is native to Australia and is recognizable because of it width and yellow bands. The bites are very accurate, and without treatment, will result in death nearly three quarters of the time.

9. Philippine Cobra

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Philippine-Cobra-Dangerous-Snakes-2012-Flickr.jpg

This snake is easily spotted because of its wide neck collar. While cobras inspire fear, most types of cobras don’t even make this list. The Philippine Cobra, however, does. It doesn’t even have to bite you to poison you. All it has to do is spit, and it can do that from 3 meters away and still hit you. Paralysis from the venom can cause death within thirty minutes.

10. Saw Scaled Viper

https://www.conservationinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Saw-Scaled-Viper-Bhavya-Joshi-Flickr.jpg

This viper is usually found in the Far East and Middle East, and generally comes out after dark. The main danger with this creature is that the venom.is so slow-acting that a victim may make the mistake of waiting too long to seek treatment. Treatment can prevent death in the majority of cases, but without it, death will result slowly and painfully over the course of two to four weeks.

Now you know the most dangerous snakes in the world. Some are easy to avoid, like the Blue Krait, while others, like the Eastern Brown Snake, may
sneak up on you even in the middle of a busy city. Some snakes are dangerous because of the speed or ferocity of their attacks, others because
of how common and widespread they are, and still others because their toxins are so deadly. As you can see, though, the majority are not
aggressive, and will steer clear of you if you steer clear of them. And even if you do get bit, with prompt treatment, in most cases you will live.

As the Christmas holiday draws nearer, lots and lots of people are making preparations on how best they will celebrate Christmas, some plan on travelling, some wants to celebrate with friends and loved ones at home etc.

What ever your plans are on how you will be celebrating Christmas, one thing is for sure, there will be increase in shopping activities. With so many things to buy, gifts, cards, clothes food items etc. So also scammers have patiently waited for this time of the year, they have also improved on their old tactics and formulated new ones in order to break security defenses.

consumers are often duped by a number of tactics employed by criminals to profit from a lack of security awareness. Although the ways that criminals attempt to steal your data are varied, creative and widespread. It's not easy to remain vigilant all of the time, but there are some tips and advice on what to look out for to avoid scams this holiday season.

People are likely to spend more than necessary in times like this. Ensure you have a budget that suits you, sometimes when we go out for shopping we end up buying more than we originally planned, and this might be as a result of so many factors. Do ensure you stick to your budget, number one way to really waste money is shopping without a list and talking about list, avoid too much gift list.

In some cases it is always advisable to resist the urge to 'act now' as scammers will want to pressure you into making quick decisions about money and investments without thinking twice.

You might also want to put away your credit cards as you would not want to accumulate debts which you have to settle with high interest after the holiday.

Advertisements offering unbelievable deals and discount on hot items, that seem too good to be true, need to be avoided, i.e. You need to stay away from such offers or shady deals. Scammers might try to entice people with such deals. In such cases ensure you are buying from a well recognized and reputable Shop. This is the time to avoid those roadside shopping. This does not mean you should not compare price of items before paying for them.

Even shopping online is not an exception, you are more likely to be scammed when shopping online than making a physical purchase. Booking for a hotel or a flight ticket on the internet has really made life easy, but scammers are all over the internet to lure and deceive people. You should be careful with the internet in this season, as you are more likely to be scammed online than physical.

If you must use your credit cards, ensure you do not use them or enter your personal information on website you are not sure it's genuine.

sometimes these scammers may disguise themselves by claiming to be representatives of some kind of charity organizations, or claim to be victims of a known natural disaster, and are likely to dupe people through solicitous emails and fake charity websites.

You can check if the website is safe by using the Google SafeBrowsing report by typing http://google.com/
safebrowsing/diagnostic?site= into
your address bar with the website
address after the equals sign, and hit
enter.

Conclusion
It is not just enough to be vigilant only before and during Christmas, the day after Christmas may be busier than the days spent while shopping and preparing for Christmas. therefore you still ought to be at alert at all times.

Best way to handle such men.

The girl says she's not interested.. then leave her alone.

I don't know why married men are so desperate. The most desperate men I've met where married.

I had one toaster who was married, he would not leave me alone, one day he messsaged me telling me that his wife just gave birth , that we should book an hotel room to celebrate.

Normally, I don't respond but I said, " your wife just gave birth 3 hours ago, don't you think you should be with her?!'and his reply was 'and so?' .

No respect whatsoever for his wife and new born baby.
It really shocked me.

To be fair, it was his fifth child in less than 7 years of marriage. So it was not really a big deal anymore I suppose.

married people who cheat are the absolute worst. They don't deserve sympathy at all.

This is the best way to handle them.

A thread was created few days ago on how often should a guy change his boxers. And comments were flying in, mostly from the ladies that we are fond of changing it after 2 or 3 days.
Well am of the opinon that ladies also pose this same characteristics with little experiences I have come across
I know of a girl who changes her panties after 2days, and don't ask me how I came to know about it
My ex gf also does it too, but not always

So ladies while you sit and criticise the guys for our inability to change our undies daily, I also think u people are also found guilty of this too, its just that we don't hav such access 2 carry out these investigations bc of how strict you people are in covering your body
Guys what do u think?

do girls still put on panties dis days? bt if they do, few change their's evriday, y most dem change their's once n 2week's

Our beloved Nigerian President , Muhammadu Buhari Visited the IDPS Camp Today In Yola Adamawa state Nigeria Today and he did something Great.
During his visit to Adamawa state earlier today, President Buhari visited soldiers in the state who are fighting Boko Haram. During his visit, Buhari honoured three soldiers who sustained serious injuries in the ongoing operations against the terrorists with the Purple Heart medal for gallantry. Buhari said that the honour to the three wounded soldiers was in appreciation of their heroic contributions to the ongoing effort by the Nigerian Armed Forces to end the Boko Haram insurgency.
“These very deserved medals are in recognition of your sacrifices. I hope it will inspire you to give more to the nation and I urge you to maintain your determination to bring peace to our fatherland. With what I have seen today, I believe that the Boko Haram are very close to defeat and I urge you to quickly clear the remnants of these criminals from wherever they may still be hiding. I also urge you to remain vigilant, alert and focused to prevent Boko Haram from sneaking into our communities to attack soft targets,’’ he said.
Those decorated with the Purple Heart medal were; Lance Corporal Kenneth Kulugh who was wounded in a battle with Boko Haram at Magar Bridge, near Madagali. Others are Private Anthony Sunday who was wounded in a battle with Boko Haram at Gubla in Adamawa State and Private Danga Umar who sustained multiple gunshot injuries to both thighs at Magar Bridge, near Madagali.

FEDERAL Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has disclosed it has received the federal government’s permission to boost its workforce with additional 720 staff.

The agency said the new intake would be mostly deployed in critical areas around the airside of the airports’ runways in order to boost safety around the facilities across Nigeria.

FAAN managing director Saleh Dunoma said as a result of increase in threat to airports and flight operations, the airports management authority is putting appropriate measures and equipment in place to forestall any threat to aircraft operating in and out of the airports.

Dunoma spoke at the opening ceremony of three days workshop to mark the Murtala Muhammed Airport 2015 Safety Week where he explained that FAAN places premium on safety and urged participants to plan ahead to avoid accidents.

Guest Speaker and FAAN director of airport operations, Capt. Henry Omeogu, who also represented the MD said the safety week is to provide awareness to stakeholders and travellers on the need to observe safety culture at the airport environment.
Omeogu frowned at the indiscriminate posting of untrained personnel by the airport authority and airlines to the airside as these personnel are nothing but hazards that may cause serious and regrettable accidents.

He charged the staff to carry out periodic and daily inspections and audit of movement areas and directed all airport managers to urgently set up local runway safety teams to prevent incidents of incursion and excursions on the runway.
With the theme ‘ Airside Safety, the Very Essence of Aviation’, various speakers harped on the need for constant interface among stakeholders to promote safety around the airside.
