Mavinkent:
Dear friends,
Please I am really desperate for a good job that can keep me going. I am 26years of age now and I really need to get something doing so that I can take proper care of my needs and my parents.
I am a N.C.E dropout, i stopped my education because of no money to continue.
I have 6months experience in computer typing and graphic design also 3 months in software settings both system and phone. I went for the training after dropout, and am really good.
I speak good English, I am presentable and decent.
I am very good at internet stuff.
I am also available for any decent job.
I am based in Efon~Alaaye Ekiti State, but I am ready to relocate anywhere if I am offered a job that has accommodation attached to it.
Please I beg everyone here in the name of God, help me out because it's not really easy at all for me all this years sitting at home doing nothing. You can call or text me on 09034449055 if you have anything for me please.

Let me start from where u stopped. U need to learn driving, its an added advantage. By d way, if u really need a good job in Nigeria, u need a paper certificate. Skills is not enough. U will mostly be paid by d paper qualifications u have and not ur skills(Dont misinterpret me here). U neet to try and go back to school, at least for certificate case. In d interim, rather than looking for job, u can create one right there in Efon. U are ICT savvy as u said. U can start a computer training centre, focus on CBT and target d upper secondary students as ur potential clients. They all want to learn ICT rudiments, especially CBT since they will soon use it to write UTME and post UTME tests. U can also add phone repairing to it. U will be surprised how sales will improve within short period right there. PACKAGING is what matters and believe in urself. But dont forget to go back to.school as ure getting old o. U can go for distance learning in any nearby University. Thank me later. Mavinkent

muller101:
He is right. I can't find any portion in the bible where it is stated that he was born on 25th dec. That we should celebrate.

Where was it written in d Bible that u shd celebrate Easter and New year? Besides, what do we celebrate on Christmas? We celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus, with humility and love as d centre of the birth. There is no written record of my Dad's birthday, but looking at the events during his birth, he picked 12th Dec. So, whats bad about that?

shamecurls:
إِنَّا للهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ‎‎

meaning?

MrTruth4real:
U be lecturer?

Of course, i am. no joking

MosquitoLaps:
Proudly one. I study International Studies And Diplomacy, UNIBEN.

Any questions?

Was Obama right about his decision? What is the global implications of this decision on global economy and security, especially developing countries of Africa like Nigeria

1Sa 10:6 The Spirit of the LORD will come upon you in power, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be changed into a different person.

1Sa 10:10 When they arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit of God came upon him in power, and he joined in their prophesying

The end of the year in Nigeria is always a beehive of activities with a load full of spiritual activities across the religious centres to terminate peoples problems just as d year is terminating itself; only for them to re-group in the new year and start the same process again. However, one of the major attractions of the end of the year is the load full of branded annual predictions (they call it prophesies) for the in-coming year, usually dished out by the so called men-of-God. This annual rituals of predictions is now made popular especially by the social media.

What exactly is prophesy according to the Bible
?
If we search through the scriptures, especially the old testament, it was established what a Prophesy is. Prophesy means speaking of what God is set to do, when God reveals or speaks through you of what He sets to do, which is beyond our calculations or predictions. If it is negative, he want us to know so as to be cautious or pray to avert the evil. If positive, to know its not by our power. It can also come as a warning, or to prepare for the future or to trace the source of a protracted and difficult problem for a solution. This is in contrary to speaking for God (not of God), i.e. saying something on behalf of God or credited to Him when actually its according to your wisdom.

For someone, or a Prophet to prophesy, he must be possessed by the Spirit of God (I Samuel 10:6, 10). Prophesy comes when only someone is possessed by or under the influence of the Spirit of God, which translates to God speaking through him. Everything he says becomes yes and amen.
Even though in Acts 2: 17, God says he would pour out his spirit on all people in the last days to be able to prophesy (not to predict). God is still speaking to His own.

What is predictions?
On the contrary, predictions is saying things that are likely to happen based on some predictable calculations or one's mind. Predictions step in when the Spirit of God is no longer involved. Predictions most at times may spell doom, and consists mostly of what is already known to be likely to happen, whose glory would not be attributed to God, because there is nothing supernatural about it. For instance, for someone prophesying that price of dollar to naira will increase further in 2017 sounds more of predictions than prophesy. We already know this is most likely to happen due to some governement policy in place. But, let's assume someone now prophesy that by 2017, $1 will be equal to N20 or a bag of rice will be sold for N2,500 as in the book of 2Kings 7; we may not likely believe that because it is beyond our ability within that little time frame. Let's now assume it happens exactly like that, we may attribute the glory to God for doing what we never thought could be possible by our own thinking and ability. It is now a usual thing to hear PREDICTIONS at the end of the year that a celebrity will die, another party will emerge, etc. These are mere predictions because such events are bound to happen anyway. Celebrity or no celebrity, we shall all die one day. Countless prophesies (predictions) in the past failed to happen because they were not from God. Don't get me wrong here. God may reveal that something will happen, and such may not happen again due to prayers rendered or when sin is involved. See the case of Prophet Hezekiah in 2Kings 20: 1ff.

What baffles me most about these Predicters is that God did not tell u that some people should repent of their sinful ways or they will perish, He did not say wicked people who embezzled workers pension will die? I wonder which god was speaking to them in the first instance? People are losing credibility in our men of God. If truly God reveals to you that someone will die, why can't you call the person to relay the message rather than posting it on the social media: or pray an intercessory prayer to avert it.

Why do people give predictions or fake prophesies?
I realized many of these people give fake prophesies:
Because it is now seen as an annual ritual which everybody must do;
To make more money;
for affluence or earn more respects among their followers; and
To be perceived been more spiritual and relevant than others.

Hear what the Bible says concerning this :


Jer 5:31 The prophets prophesy lies, the priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end?

Jer 14:14 Then the LORD said to me, "The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries and the delusions of their own minds.

Jer 23:16 This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.

Jer 23:26 How long will this continue in the hearts of these lying prophets, who prophesy the delusions of their own minds?

Jer 23:32 Indeed, I am against those who prophesy false dreams," declares the LORD. "They tell them and lead my people astray with their reckless lies, yet I did not send or appoint them. They do not benefit these people in the least," declares the LORD.

Durentmoney:
OP.
I agree with u. Nice points here except dat ur "Drive less" point.


Why is d aim of buyin d car. No be to drive am?

Guys check out my signature

Thanks. Read dt number 2 again. Its actually saying u shdnt drive ur car less. Driving ur car over a very short distance often can lead to forming of condensation in the exhaust...You can just read dt point again...

swtdrms:
Thanks alot OP, very insightful. I think I have a question, there's a liquid substance in a small package I do see at a fuel station wch is claimed to economise fuel consumption, how true is this and how safe is it to use?

I ve seen people buying and using it also, but nobody has told me it has economized his/her fuel consumption.

7. Monitor your brake pad thickness and don't let the pads wear down to metal. This will cause damage to your brake rotors ("discs" at least and possibly your calipers as well. Rotors and calipers are much more expensive to replace than pads. There is no such thing as "cleaning" a brake pad while it is still on a car - the friction between the pad and rotor will eradicate any outside substance almost immediately.

8. Rotate the tires. Changing tire position is very important and reduces uneven wear and tear on the tread, thus extending the life of the tires. The recommended rotation cycle is twice a year or every 6,000 - 7,500 miles. Rotate them diagonally - front right to rear left and front left to rear right. However, this pattern can change depending on the drivetrain of the vehicle, and the type of tire. Your vehicle manual will contain detailed rotation information.

9. Keep the tires inflated . Under-inflated tires can reduce the tire life by 15% and will slightly decrease your gas mileage, perhaps by 10%. Inflating tires is perhaps the easiest of all activities, and many stores sell tire gauges for a very small cost. Checking your tire pressure every other time you get gas will reduce tire wear and prevent these issues. Monitor your tire tread to determine when there is need for replacement.

10. Keep the front end aligned. If you notice your car shaking while driving at high speeds (not while braking - shuddering while braking indicates warped rotors), or if your tread is wearing unevenly, then you may need an alignment. This is also key to extending the life of your tires and will keep the tread even for increased safety.

11. Get your car off to a good start every time you drive it. Start the car and drive off slowly and gently until the car reaches operating temperature (known as closed loop). This reduces the strain on the engine while the oil is still cold and thicker. Another option is to use electric engine space heaters, and start the drive with a warm engine. Accelerate promptly to the target speed. For most modern cars, idling a cold engine is both counterproductive and wasteful. Additionally, as you accelerate, release the gas a bit to cause the automatic transmission to upshift while you are not pressing hard on the gas. This causes less wear on the internal clutches. It is easier on the clutches for the car to shift when you ease up on the gas.

12. Use your parking (hand) brake. Even if you are driving a car with an automatic transmission, use your parking brake regularly, especially if you're parked on an incline. It helps keep the brakes adjusted in the rear of the car and makes them last longer.

13. Wash your car and the car engine: Road salt, sludge and pollution can lead to costly body work. Without regular cleaning, you can start to notice rust on the bottom of your doors within four years. Another three to four years and the corrosion will creep to underbody components, like brake lines. It can cost thousands in rust-related repairs if you neglect to wash your car, especially near ocean/gulf shorelines, such as Lagos, where the road sand or morning dew might be salty. Washing your car’s exterior is taken for granted, but opening the hood and washing the engine every few years is a way to prolong the life of the vehicle. Removing the sludge that accumulates on an engine’s exterior helps keep the parts from overheating, which will allow you to stay away from the mechanic. Electrical parts and the air intake should be protected when you perform this task, so ask for advice at the auto parts store before you get into engine cleaning.

14. Protect your car in a storage
If you aren’t going to use your car for several weeks, there are steps you should take to protect its operation. Reader’s Digest suggests filling up the gas tank to avoid condensation and adding a fuel stabilizer to keep parts in working order while it sits idle. In addition, removing the battery from your car will protect it from damage and potential drain. Finally, wash and wax your car so the exterior remains protected in your absence. It will be much better off when you return.
You also need to protect your car from the sun. Too much sunlight will eat away paint and leave your car vulnerable to rust. If you can’t keep it in a garage, at least try to keep it out of the sun. Reader’s Digest suggests getting a car cover to give your car protection against moisture, bird droppings, and other debris. Covers also give you a line of defense against random damage that can occur to a car sitting on a residential street or in a parking lot.

15. Keep the interior of your car clean and dry
There is a lot of electronics and wiring in the dash, center console and under the carpet. Electronics plus water always equals trouble . When you keep the interior clean, it stays smell-free. Once the moisture or garbage accumulate, it will be almost impossible to get rid of a bad smell. Most newer cars have a cabin filter that needs to be replaced every 10,000-15,000 miles. A dirty cabin filter also causes a bad smell in a car.

Whether you drive an old or a new Car, you want to keep your ride going as long as possible, but it’s easier said than done. While in the middle of life’s daily hustle, you might be letting proper car care slide. Over the years, that will add extra wear and ultimately shorten the life of the vehicle.
Getting the most out of your car is easier than you might think. Once the warranty runs out or your service package expires, simple maintenance procedures (at small investments) are the key to avoiding expensive vehicle repairs. These tips however, will be handy in prolonging the life-span of your car:

1. Read the car's manual and schedule maintenance accordingly. Keeping up with your car's recommended maintenance schedule can help avoid costly problems with your cooling system, drive train, suspension and other components; following the recommended schedule also helps ensure you get the full benefit of the manufacturer's warranty.

2. Drive less. Especially, avoid short trips. Cold starts are hard on engines, your gas mileage, and the environment. Short trips can also significantly shorten the life of your muffler. Basically, you get condensation in the exhaust when you start a cold engine, and if you don't run the car for long enough to evaporate all of the condensation out of the system, excessive amounts of water can accumulate in your muffler, and rust a hole through it. Avoid starting a cold car just to pull it into the garage, for instance. Consider walking to the nearest store for a change. Combine short errands, and, if you have multiple vehicles, drive the one more recently driven when you go out again. Do drive a car at least every week or so, since cars that sit for longer than a week or two at a time have other problems, such as fluids gradually draining out of systems. Consult a mechanic if you will store a car for an extended period.

3. Check the fluids: You should check the level of your antifreeze, oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and brake fluid, very regularly. A good time to do so is when you fill up with gasoline/petrol. Even if your car doesn't leak fluids at the moment, one can occur at any time and you can identify it by checking the fluid levels often. You should also check the color of some of these fluids. Some of these have see-through plastic tanks that you can look through, and some have dipsticks. Antifreeze should be either pink, green, or yellow (Pink for newer cars with "Dex-Cool", green for old cars with plain Ethyl-Glycol, and green or yellow for cars that have been flushed and filled with universal antifreeze...brown antifreeze should always be flushed, it either has rust or a lot of dirt in it, probably both. Also, never mix different kinds of antifreeze; if you don't know what color antifreeze your car has, buy a universal brand. Oil will normally be slightly clear (when new) to brown. Oil that looks white and milkshake-like may be contaminated with antifreeze/coolant or very rarely, just a large amount of condensation. You should take your vehicle in for service soon if this is the case. Transmission fluid should be bright red, and should not smell burnt. If it looks or smells burnt, have your transmission fluid flushed. Letting it get too bad can damage your transmission. There's also a chance that you may have an internal transmission problem, especially if you are having problems with shifting or engaging in gears

4. Change the oil regularly. This will improve your gas mileage and protect your engine. The recommended mileage between oil changes is 3,000 - 5,000 miles (or 5000 - 8000 kilometres) or every 3 to 6 months, depending on the type of oil you use and your driving conditions. Doing this could make it possible for your vehicle to attain 200,000 miles (or about 320,000 kilometres). Change the oil filter at the same time; there is no sense in putting clean oil through a dirty filter, and filters are very cheap and available at any auto parts store. If you're unsure how often to change your oil, check your car's owner's manual or contact the dealer for your car's make. In general, conventional oil and harsh driving conditions (like short trips, taxi/police/delivery use, extreme weather, heavy loads) will require more frequent oil changes than fully synthetic oils and light driving conditions.

5. Change the air filter. This is something you can do easily at home with few or no tools. A screwdriver may be required. You can buy a matching filter at nearly any auto parts store and your owner's manual will show you where your air filter is located. A dirty, dusty filter can slightly hamper gas mileage and make your car accelerate poorly.

6. Flush these fluids every two years: power steering fluid, brake fluid, and cooling system anti-freeze. Check this timetable against your owner's manual. Newer cars generally allow longer intervals between changes. Change transmission fluid & filter at least every 50,000 miles (40k to 45k is even better). Older fluids don't lubricate and cool parts as well as fresh fluid and may leave your car unprotected in severe conditions (for example, old antifreeze may not perform well in a very cold weather).

NO. She for no cook, make she fast dt day. HOTSPEC cooking on Christmas day! How about that?

Evidence has emerged from a retrieved log of phone call between Ekiti State Governor Fayose and his Rivers state Counterpart, Nyesom Wike, concerning the recent re-run election in River state. Below is the excerpts as shared by Sahara Reporters:

Wike: Ayodele my son!
Fayose: You think I’m Nigerian Army member?
Wike: Nigerian Army does not exist again now!
Fayose: Ah, Wike, you tried!
Wike: (Laughter) Ha! Ha! Ha….!
Fayose: Everybody has been calling me! Wike, you are the man! You faced the whole country’s military threat…
Wike: (Laughter)
Fayose: They were shooting when you went o..!
Wike: My brother, you have to fight to the last o…! Kill everybody you can kill… Everybody you can kill!
Fayose: Ah! You’re the man of the year! This one is too much for one person! Everyone couldn’t know the way forward!
Wike: (Laughter)
Fayose: You went to collating centre!
Wike: Yes, I had to stop there!
Fayose: Eh! The video is all over now! See the way they’re shooting!
Wike: (Laughter)
Fayose: All over! Aaaargh! Congrats!
Wike: My brother, thank god for everything. It is god.
Fayose: I’m sure we are still going to go to court against them for the other one.
Wike: Of course. Of course! We’ll fight it out!
Fayose: You’ve done well for all of us!
Wike: We thank god, my brother!
Fayose: I’ll call you later.
Wike: Okay.

You can also do a fasting/random blood sugar test to rule out early symptoms of diabetes.

enitey:
What is HB

HBP High Blood Pressure

Here are the key signals that warn and inform us about bad health:
1. Bad Feet
Feet are an important body part that can tell you a lot about your condition. Examine the skin of your feet and make sure that it is well-hydrated and smooth enough. There plenty of issues that may cause dry and cracked skin. If your feet show the signs of dermatitis, eczema, allergic reactions or simply dry skin, then you are extremely vulnerable to fungal infections. Infections usually develop much faster if the skin does not produce oil. Also, warm and moist skin is the perfect environment to catch all kind of skin infections. Have you ever been told that you have athlete’s foot? If yes, then avoid using petroleum jelly as well as various other moisturizers since they will never solve the problem. Of course, cracked feet are especially prone to infections. Always take care of your feet and maintain them clean and dry at all times. Put on fresh and dry socks and shoes. Opt for footwear and sock made with natural material, Do not wear synthetic stuff. Wear shoes with open toes in summer. Before applying any sort of treatment against athlete’s foot, consult a specialist.

2. Yellow Tinge on Your Skin
If you have noticed a yellowish tinge to your eyes and skin, then it might mean that you have some sort of health issue. Whether it is something serious or less severe, talk to your doctor and try to find out what it is exactly that causes this phenomenon. In some instances a yellowish tinge might mean that you have problems with your liver. It can be either hepatitis or jaundice. Again, we suggest you should talk to a specialist and ask for professional help. Babies that are preterm can suffer from infant jaundice. It is a common condition that happens to babies whose liver is not yet developed enough to wash away bilirubin in the blood.

3. White Rings around Corneas in Eyes
Whitish rings around the cornea of the eye are called arus senillis. It’s not a big deal if you are a person over 30. If you are still young yet have white rings around the cornea, then you probably have high cholesterol. Do not ignore the issue and try to resolve it as soon as possible if you are not yet 30 years old. Do not try to lie to yourself or hide the symptoms – the sooner you see your doctor, the sooner you will know what causes the whitish rings. No doubt vision is essential so take care of it. No one wants to suffer from bad eyesight.

4. Pale Skin
How light is your skin? If your skin is much lighter than it used to be, then you probably have reduced red blood cells. It is very possible that a reduction in blood flow causes your skin go pale. Skin pigment is another sign that you should pay your attention to. Revise your menu and make it suppler. You need it to be nutritional and healthy. If you do not know what should be changed in your diet, talk to professionals. The right amount of vitamins and minerals will definitely change the situation for the better. Give preference to foods that give enough proteins, fats and carbs.

5. Tripe Palms
Velvety palms that are thickened at the same time is an obvious signal that something is wrong with your body. Never take it lightly. Visual signs of this kind let you know that you should pay more attention to your health. Tripe reminds of the stomach lining of sheep, pork, or beef. That does not sound like a very nice symptom, does it? Make an appointment and see your health practitioner instead of ignoring the situation thinking that will disappear on its own.
