List on how to get ur PC runing faster. 1. Increase ur ram capacity. 2. Get a graphic card thats got a proccessor, this reduces the time ur main proccessor spends on displaying graphics. 3. Allocate more swap space from ur hard drive, such that when ur memory is quite loaded it could make do with some of ur Hard drive space. 4. Allow file indexing on ur hard drive, makes serching for files on ur hard drive less resource intensive. 5. Get the best proccessor fans, this enhances cooling and could increase ur proccessor speed by 5%. 6. This is a very difficult one though, but av seen it done. Run a radiator coolant thru ur PC. Yeah water, increasing ur PC speed by a quarter. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7909014.stm 7. This is the easiest part though, throw the damn PC away and get a 3.5GHz. Am sure ud be glad I suggested no. 7. |

@Hauwa I read ur post about paying your dowry. As far as I understand that means your still tied to a culture, and invariably your not totally available for marriage, until this criteria is met, in other words your not absolutely available, since the village, clan or persons that should receive this dowry either in cash or services might decide they don't want it, which leaves the payer and you in a difficult position, cause you as a person have not been freed by your social superiors, or owners in terms of your village clan or culture. So I suggest. Why don't you set yourself free, put yourself in the market, so that any suitor like Pres wont have to undergo the pain of having to pay the bride price - in this case a dowry - and there is a likely chance it might be rejected. Maybe because your family or village do not like his face (I don't either, so I won't blame them), or they don't like the village he comes from (Since his from Ani Ocha), or any other reason we can't forsee here. So Ikomi says to Hauwa set youself free, go and pay your own dowry, in other that Pres would not need to go through a third party to have your hand in marriage, all he needs will be your consent and yours alone. ![]() How does that grab you. Think about it. ![]() |
Some argue that although race is a valid taxonomic concept in other species, it cannot be applied to humans. Many scientists have argued that race definitions are imprecise, arbitrary, derived from custom, have many exceptions, have many gradations, and that the numbers of races delineated vary according to the culture making the racial distinctions; thus they reject the notion that any definition of race pertaining to humans can have taxonomic rigour and validity.[color=#990000][/color] Wekipedia. "An aggregate of phenotypically similar populations of a species, inhabiting a geographic subdivision of the range of a species, and differing taxonomically from other populations of the species." Mayr 1969 Phenotypically similar, therefore monotypic, does not mean indifferent, according to Mayr they could still be in different taxonomic ranking. Don't tell me humans can not be classified into taxonomic ranks in the specie of Homo Sapien, as this is still being argued amongst scientist as far as I know. You may have chosen to be on the line of thought that believe humans should not be further subdivided, but I and Mr Botha can clearly see the difference and would stand for the thought that humans should be be subdivided into the taxonomic ranks in the specie of Homo Sapien. And I must warn you that scientist don't in most cases look for the origins, they try to explain the result. If I and Mr Botha can not clearly point out any animal or plant apart from humans - which I believe you yourself have not done - of different taxonomic rank that have freely interbred with each other, then we say that humans which should be of different taxonomic rank breeding with each other is strange. I asked you in your example of dogs, show me anywhere in the wild, the natural habitat of dogs, where dogs of different taxonomy have freely interbreed with each other. Am sure you could not, but you would rather refer to the dogs that have been tamed by humans, such that, these same humans have successfully passed there corrupt nature of breeding with each other to the dogs. What Mr Botha is saying in a nut shell is that we should reverse back to how it was, whether he is mother nature or not. And clearly you are not mother nature to say "since it is as it is now, lets just live on". All am trying to tell you is that Mr Botha has a point which might not be a populist idea today. Although it is solidly based on the fact that no other animal or plant apart from humans of different taxonomic rank have freely interbred. |
I would like to remind you again of what I told you at the beginning of this conversation, it should be coherent. In other that I don't get lost in my own rhetoric as well, I will not answer to your reply paragraph by paragraph, but I would rather sum up my understating of your reply before I finally give my answer to your reply while I try to keep you on track on the subject of this conversation. We are not in any way trying to establish where Mr Bothas analogy, view or understanding of how humans of different specie or taxonomy - I still stick to those words which you used in your first reply, since I noticed you have carefully avoided them in your last reply - should live comes from. The article that was given to us did not at any point tell us that Mr Bothas view comes from his leaning on the ideology of the Nazis, No. Mr Botha clearly stated what his view is based on when he gave the analogy that Hedgehogs are not porcupines. Infact he even pointed out that the west is against them, but although they - the govt. in power in South Africa then - know that the west is secretly racist. So with that said I would not branch into Nazism or racism otherwise we might loose focus on the subject of this conversation. What is the subject of this conversation you might ask me? The conversation at hand is, is it natural or somewhat strange that animals of the same taxonomy but of different sub-specie, to breed with each other. This I believe is also Mr Bothas argument, as stated in the article. My answer to this question is that it is strange that animals or plant of different sub-specie to breed with each other. My answer is so as I have volunteered to take the side of Mr Botha. I see that you brought your focus back to the subject when you gave an instance of dogs, that are of different sub-specie but could breed with each other, while you gave that acceptable instance you also asked a question, if the act of dogs of different sub-specie breeding with each other is strange. My answer to your question is Yes. Dogs of different sub-specie breeding with each other is definitely a strange act. But you also digressed from the subject when you tried to equate the reason for different sub-species breeding with each other as a case of the survival of the fittest. Your analogy there is strongly flawed. Since you might not be able to point to a time when there was only one monkey in an Island and only one orangutan, such that in other for them to survive they decide to breed with each other. I also had a problem with your analogy of the temperature some time hitting 120 degrees, there you really digressed from the subject because Mr Botha is not really concerned about unforeseen circumstances, he was merely concerned that as long as there are different traits between a Caucasian and a black, which has necessitated them to be classified in different groups, whether socially or naturally, then they should not breed with each other. So on that single presumption of Mr Botha, there I shall make my stand and there I shall continue this conversation. With all that said, then I shall only answer to the paragraph in your reply that stayed on the subject. If we are to follow the reasoning of the above statement then it would be very strange why dogs who undoubtedly are not created equal in the same capacity as humans have the instinct to breed with each other irrespective of physical or mental traits.Naturally in the wild there are different specie of dogs, as the monkey and the orangutan are in the wild. Dogs of the same sub-specie in the wild would not breed or even hunt with dogs of different a sub-specie. But humans have eventually tamed this animals and thereby in one way or the other subjected to sexual starvation. Such that a dog would now mate with another dog of different sub-specie, which it would not do normally if it were in its natural habitat in the wild. So my answer to ur question is YES, it is very strange that dogs of different sub-specie breed with each other, and my answer to your question, compliments my argument that: humans as members of same specie but of different subspecie has gone in contrast to the natural incline that animals of same specie but of different subspecie should not breed with each other, as is the case of the orangutan and the monkey or that of the dogs of different sub-specie. |
Look at you, reigning thing. Okada, Ojuelegba to Mushin 10 bucks. Its guys that ride on Okada that run things, at least in Lagos. It even made a good song then.

OgidiBoy:So invariably what ur saying is dat we should give Osisi title for cutting and pasting. Then what would we call her Cut and Paster 1 of Ala Igbo. ehhhhhnnnnn OgidiBoy? ![]() Osisi come to me jare let me give u better title. Mrs Mu. ![]() Hauwa how now, your face dey shine oooohhhhhh. ![]() Where is tpia and Aloy, we dont hear from them anymore. Have they settled? I think they should let us know whats going on. ![]() |
No no no no no no Osisi, if its a joke i think u've gone too far. How can u come to my house take my picture and put it up on the internet. Because u gave me one hand does not in any way justify ur actions. ![]() |
Now like I said for the sake of the conversation. I stated my believe in other that you would understand that whatever I write here on this thread is contrary to my believe, that all men are born equal, so that you will not confuse my stance in this conversation with my view of life. So I hope that answers the question you posed here. morpheus24:However I would like for a moment to take a stand on the side of Mr. Botha that all men are not created equally. I know my initial analogies do not really hit the mark, but I shall try to convince you that Mr Bothas view of life is not totally flawed by citing orangutans and monkeys as compared to humans. When you use the words taxonomy and specie, then I would like to define what this words mean so that we don't at any point confuse ourselves with vocabularies. A species is often defined as a group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring Wekipedia Species - like form or kind mariam webster Species - a set of animals or plants, members of which have similar characteristics to each other. cambridge dictionary Taxonomy - a system for naming and organizing things, especially plants and animals, into groups which share similar qualities cambridge dictionary Taxonomy is the practice and science of classification Wekipedia Taxonomy - the study of the general principles of scientific classification mariam webster From this definitions we could easily deduce that the words Taxonomy or Species has to do with the grouping or classification of animals and plants. Now do you by any means agree that Orangutans and Monkeys fall into the category of Apes - either great or non great, although different subspecies. But yet they don't breed with each other. Could it be that it is only for this reason that they don't breed with each other has scientists decided to group them differently, such that if an incident of an orangutan and a monkey engaging in the act of reproduction could be proved then there is a chance the monkeys would fall into the category of the great apes. Even though the same scientists that placed the monkey and the orangutan in different groups still believe that they both share the same characteristics, except for the fact that the orangutan has longer arms, different colour and of course higher intelligence. In Mr Bothas view - which am standing by now (and please its just for the sake of the conversation) - this same situation matches his view of how humans should live. Is it not those same scientists that classified us as blacks, Caucasians and orientals. If the definition of Taxonomy is to be followed then are we of the same specie. Yes we might be of same specie just like the monkey and the orangutan is but definitely not of the same subspecie. Then comes a summary of Mr Bothas point, if orangutans and monkeys do not breed with each other although they might be of the same specie but not of the same subspecie, why should the Caucasian breed with an oriental or black since they are not of the same subspecie. Believe it or not there are millions of people who share this view and would stand by it strongly. In conclusion, I personally believe that all men are born equally, but like I said and I repeat for the sake of the conversation, I have taken Mr Botha's view just to point out to you that we humans as members of same specie but of different subspecie has gone in contrast to the natural incline that animals of same specie but of different subspecie should not breed with each other, as is the case of the orangutan and the monkey, or vice versa. |
presido1:Ohhh now I see where her anger comes from honestly. ![]() This is the funniest site I have been to. ![]() She really likes Aloy. ![]() This guys wont kill Ikomi. ![]() |
I will ask u again just for the sake of the conversation. Since am a strong believer that all men are born equall. Lets give Mr Botha a chance that he might be right. Coming from ur own definition of species, just because we have the same characteristics, are able to procreate with each other, therefore are able to pass on the same trait (mind u when u mention trait, it could be in-between). In the case of a white mother and black father. The fathers eye might be black while the mothers eye is blue with the childs eye coming out grey. Just for the conversation still, and therefore in-between. Could we by any chance apply the same theory to monkeys and orangutans. Since they both share the same characteristics, and are able to procreate. But naturally would not mate. I dont know if u get where am coming from. Except u would tell me they are not of the same specie. Then I might have to take u up on that. Like I said just for the conversation, I would quite like it to be polite and coherent. Thank u. |
You sure made ur point. In other words Mr Botha's analogy is dead wrong. That is what we have clearified. You sure made ur point young man. ![]() |
I spent the whole of yesterday serching for the word species, I could not find it. Av given up though. ![]() morpheus24:Can u please explain to me what ur getting at. So we can reasonably continue this conversation. ![]() |
@Aloy and tpia I was always wondering how tpia knows when her name is mentioned on this thread, I never knew she was coming in to check on Aloy. Aloy so why are u calling her a lesbian, when u are aware what she comes in here for. Ehhnn Aloy? ![]() tpia never mind we would speak to him, does he still sleep in the house? If not we would fine him 10 Akwu'ete wrappers all for u.But in the mean time u should stop interupting us rudely, cos if other members of this thread did not bring it to our attention, we would have thought ur a lesbian cos u sound so bitter. Aloy, Aloy, Aloy will u comon appear here and explain to us what exactly u did to tpia. ![]() @Ebony Rolling Rolling Rolling, eyes rolling https://www.geocities.com/iyke46742000/alienfrog.gif |

queenblack:But queenblack imagine if u were not black, wont you for a moment think Petr Botha was right there, I sometimes wonder myself. The lizard, the aligator and the crocodile. They all look the same, but the day the lizard looks into the aligators eye, it is by it own hands calling for its death. So also an aligator would never say it is the equal of a crocodile, not in size nor strength. To be honest with you I really think of this things sometimes, is it the gods trying to amuse themselves at humans not been able to see beyond there skin and tribe with all the technological advancement, or they are just sitting together wondering what exactly they did wrong in just trying to be a little creative by using different colours. Queenblack are u black or brown, I wish I had a say in it, I would have asked the gods to make me green. ![]() |
Aloy.Emeka:I said it. Osisi - u've been revealed https://www.geocities.com/iyke46742000/21.gif take pride in america alias tpia How is that one persons name.

With all the wealth and good life he had, he still died before Madela who lived in prison. Who says the gods dont have there own ways. Time will tell. Am not sure how authenthic this is, but its good reading it. ![]() |
queenblack:Some people av met on this site dont know that and would never know, am not sure though, does it have anything to do with upbriging? queenblack:I think the Deeper Life Ministry in Nigeria has perfected that act. queenblack:Good way to describe the Fulani dominance of Nigeria, hiding behind the name Northerners/hausas. queenblack:White supremacy till tomorrow.

@ Aloy.Emeka My aim was for us to ignore that girl, but since u've mentioned it Aloy.Emeka, I shall leave u this guiding principle and it might be good for anyone that reads it too. Aloy.Emeka may our thoughts be positive. Iseeeeeeee. "If ur thought is positive, it is beacause ur words are positive If ur words are positive, it is because ur actions are positive If ur actions are positive, it is because ur behaviour is positive if ur behaviour is positive, it is because ur habit is positive if ur habit is positive, it is because ur destiny is positive" Aloy wokem leave tpia with her theory. ![]() |
