Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Nigeria Police 2016 Recruitment Of 10,000 Personnel by Irore: 10:16pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
ozoigbondu: The Police Service Commission (PSC) has warned that there would be no short-cut into the Nigeria Police Force in the recruitment of 10,000 personnel. President Muhammadu Buhari had in 2015 approved the recruitment of 10,000 policemen at the National Security Summit in Abuja. In a statement Wednesday, Ikechukwu Ani, Head, Press and Public Relations of the commission, told journalists that Mike Okiro, Chairman of the commission, gave the warning while unveiling a portal for the exercise in Abuja. The statement said that the portal would be opened to the public on April 1 to herald the commencement of the exercise. “The process leading to the recruitment of 10,000 Policemen as directed by President Muhammadu Buhari at the National Security Summit in Abuja last year, has commenced,” the statement said. It said the unveiling of the portal was in actualisation of the presidential directive on the recruitment of the 10,000 Policemen. The statement noted that the exercise was remarkable because there had not been recruitment into the Nigeria Police Force for more than five years.
It said that thousands of policemen who died in the course of service, dismissed or retired, had not been replaced since the last five years. The statement stressed that the recruitment would strengthen and re-energise the force to tackle more security challenges facing the country. It explained that the exercise could not begin last year because the funding was not captured in the 2015 budget. The statement urged interested applicants to access the portal through the commission’s website: www.psc.gov.ng or that of the Nigeria Police Force: www.npf.gov.ng. It said that no fee would be charged for the processing of the forms which would be filled on-line. “We are not charging money. It is free, absolutely free,” it said. The statement said that the exercise would be in three entry points of Constable, Cadet Inspector and Cadet ASP, while there would also be recruitment into the Specialist cadre. It said that applicants for Police Constables are expected to possess five credits including Mathematics and English Language at Senior School Certificate Examination in not more than two sittings. It said that for Cadet Inspectors, in addition to having the requirements of Police Constables, candidates would be expected to have an Ordinary National Diploma (OND), Advanced Level (A level), National Certificate in Education (NCE) or their equivalents. The statement said Candidates for Cadet ASP must possess a University degree or a Higher National Diploma (HND).

NYSC › Re: Wike Increases Rivers Corpers' Allowance by Irore: 8:17pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
Mztarstrechy: Rivers To Immotalise Killed Corper;Corpers' Salary Increased 4rm 10k To 15k:Wike)
Rivers State Governor Wike said today corps member, Mr Samuel Okonta, who was killed during the rerun legislative elections in the State will be immortalised by Rivers state government.
He also declared that the State Government will provide all necessary assistance for the police to investigate the killing of the corps member, with a view to identifying those responsible and prosecuting them.
Speaking at the Rivers State National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Headquarters in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, Governor Wike also announced an increment in the monthly allowance of corps members serving outside Port Harcourt from N10, 000 to N15000. He also increased the state monthly allowance of corps members serving in Port Harcourt from N5000 to N10000.
He expressed sadness that the corps member died serving the nation. He said that the Rivers State Government will take care of the family of the late corps member.
Governor Wike noted that the death is even more painful because the corps member was an orphan who suffered through schooling and was on the verge of being of help to his immediate family.
He said: “The death of this corps member is unfortunate and condemnable. I urge the Police to thoroughly investigate the crime. The outcome of the investigation should be made public so that those involved are prosecuted. The killing of this corps member must not be swept under the carpet.
“I call for post mortem on the corpse of the corps member so that we can ascertain the type of bullet and type of gun that killed him. The post mortem will also determine who bears that type of gun that killed the corps member “.
The governor said his administration will also take measures to improve security in the state. He said that steps will be taken to ensure that the incident does not reoccur.
State Coordinator of the NYSC, Mrs Ngozi Nwatarali commended the governor for commiserating with the NYSC at its moment of grief. She appealed for greater protection for corps members during elections.
Responding on behalf of the family, Alex Edeabeatu thanked the Governor for his gesture. He said that the late corps member was a shining light.

Webmasters › Re: How Websites Work by Irore: 6:51pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
Rick9: in the internet there's what we call traffic, can't say much tho, but traffic is the total number of visitors your website receive in a single day, now to make money on your website is like this, you make money through Ads (Adverts) , Like nairaland for instance you would open some page and see some Banner displaying some Ads, now because nairaland has a lot of traffic I.e visitors , prospective customers can advertise their products and services on nairaland, now when they do, they pay for the advert rates set by seun. So if u have alot of clients whom are willing to advertise on your website, the money start flowing in, Sites like Google and Facebook can boast of 1 Billion Unique Visitors a day, now imagine that. That's the little I know oh am about to dive into the world of computers. You too like money. Wetin? |
Webmasters › Re: How Websites Work by Irore: 6:49pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
sonOfLucifer: Alright, so this is a little guide on websites and how they work.
The Web has given us a lot of things to be grateful for; Patience Jonathan's epic 'CHAI' video on YouTube is something I will always be grateful for. You can be in a remote village in Jalingo, and buy expired drugs from a businessman in China. NEPA might misbehave while you're in the middle of Season 3 of Game of Thrones. One MTN data pack later, you'd have watched it on YouTube or one of the many illegally legal streaming sites. 
Simply amazing, amazing technology.
I want you to relax and forget about what you know or think you know. I assume you know all I have to talk about; I just want to make sure that assumption is right.
So on to the topic, what's the web? How does it work? There is nothing too technical in this. Computers, and generally man's inventions, only mirror the world in which we live in.
It all begins with a device called a Computer. I assume you've used a calculator at some point in your life. Let's say you have to perform an addition on two numbers. 123 + 421
You press the buttons on the calculator to input the figures, and then press the answer button to get the result. When you press the buttons on the calculator, the calculator has to perform the following processes to return a result to you. a. accept your input. b. process it. c. return a result.
These are the functions of a computer. It's an electronic device that accepts input(data), processes it, and returns a result. Easy.
Computers you are probably more familiar with range from desktops, laptops, mobiles etc..
[img]http://hardwaretexpert.files./2011/01/connecttwocomputerswithethernet.jpg[/img]
Below are two computers. Let's call the one on the left a client and the other a server. The Client represents your laptop, phone or any device you use to view or browse a website. A program on your device called a browser is used to access the website. Your browser might Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera Mini, or the dead,buried but not forgotten Internet Explorer.
Let me break this down a bit. Better hunger don wire you and you dey find food wey you go chop. You quickly rush into a restaurant, and two eba later, you are satisfied and your total financial worth has decreased by N250.
Like we did for the calculator, let's go through the process from hunger to satisfaction. You walk into the restaurant and approach the small girl lazily swinging her legs and chewing gum behind the counter. You place your order and take a seat. This is you, the client.
You are a client because you have a request. In the same way, your browser makes a request for a webpage. You do not need to go into the kitchen and prepare the food yourself. You do not even need to know if they have a kitchen. All you do is place an order (and hope your belle no go run ).
So your device is a client that makes a request using a web browser.
Unlike the girl at the counter who is physically present in front of you, the browser needs to send a request to another computer several miles away. That request has to make its way to the right computer. If you want Mr Biggs to send you meatpie, the request should not end up at Jevinik. This is made possible through the Internet.
What is the Internet? Now imagine you have to travel from Port-Harcourt to Owerri. There are many roads by which you can embark on this journey. Some of the roads will have more traffic than others. But every car, hopefully, will leaves it origin and arrive at its destination safely.
In digital terms, we call the road network the internet. It enables you send messages between tow points, from source(your device) to destination ( server).You can connect two computers together in such a way that they will be able to communicate with each other.
NOTE: TO avoid being too technical, the rest of this story has been oversimplified. My intention is to ensure you understand the concept of what goes on behind the scenes, not understand every technicality.
The Internet is the connection of all connections. It's a digital highway enabling billions of devices to communicate with each other. On this digital highway, every device has something called an IP address. This IP address is similar to your home address. It identifies the location of each device on the highway, just like your address describes and identifies where you reside. When you enter the address(facebook.com, bbc.co.uk, lindaikejiblog.com), you send out one small Akpan on the highway. That's your message. Akpan takes address(facebook.com, bbc.co.uk etc) and gets on the road. This is the address of the website you want to access.
Akpan gets to a junction. In IT parlance, we call this junction a router. They are a network device. You've probably seen one before. It's usually what you connect to when you login to a WIFI network. It's like TIMARIV /LASTMA and Immigration in one. They control traffic on the digital highway, ensuring that millions/billions of Akpans head in the right direction. Routers link different computer networks. If the website you want to access is hosted in another country, they'll be there to guide little Akpan along the way.
So from router, to router, to router Akpan goes, until he gets to the router closest to the computer where facebook/bbc/pornhub lives. Now, let's come back to reality.
The second computer on the right is called a Server. Don't Let the name scare you, it's nothing serious.
A server's purpose is to accept requests and respond to them. Like that girl at the counter in our imaginary restaurant.
It's a computer just like yours, but it has more power, more strength, it's a Goliath and you are its David. Its strength comes from the fact that it would probably have more hard disk, ram and processing power than your phone will ever need. Think about it, who has more stock of food right now? You or Mr Biggs?
The server is the computer on which the website is hosted. This is where your site lives.
Just briefly, let's describe what a website is. When you work on Microsoft Documents, you save them as document files. They'll probably have a .doc or .docx extension at the end of the filename. Different programs have different file types. You need video players (Windows Media, VLC) to play videos. You need music players to play music. In the same way, documents opened by browsers are called HTML files.
A web developer writes the code for a website, stores them in files called HTML files and copies them onto the server. REMEMBER, the server is just a computer like yours. So when Akpan gets to the door to deliver the message, the server opens the door, gets the request from Akpan, looks at the address, and goes to find the webpages. Usually, when you access a website, the first page you get is the homepage. This is the page the server will return to your phone. And Akpan, returns home with a smile on his face, and delivers the webpage to your device. Facebook, Gmail, pornhub whatever, all inside his tiny little bag.. 
Extra info for web developers
Following the analogy on Akpan, it's crucial to note the following. The client doesn't need to know what the server does or how it gets the webpage. All Akpan requires is a html file is returned to it.
Now, remember as I said earlier, the server is like your computer. It runs an operating system just like your laptop runs Windows and phone runs Android or IOS (Apple).
From a web developer's perspective, to design a website you should be versatile in the following languages. HTML : Determines the content of your web pages(.html files you save) CSS: Determines how the content will look, its presentation ( .CSS files) Javascript: Adds interactivity to your website. ( .JS files) PHP/Mysql: Server side programs (explained further on)
Every web browser comes with HTML, CSS, and Javascript installed. So they're able to interprete the files without any help from the server. Server side programs are installed on the server( remember just a computer). Apache is a WEB server. It's simply an application that runs on a server and handles those requests you make. PHP is a web language that runs on servers. It makes your pages dynamic (i.e the page you get is based on your input/feedback, think newsfeed on facebook). Free tutorial.

Literature › Re: Fiston Mwanza Mujila Bagged The Etisalat Book Prize For ‘tram83’ – Read An Excer by Irore: 5:10pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
Mcwrath02: Acclaimed newcomer Fiston Mwanza Mujila has dazzled the literary world with his debut novel, a riotous look at the underbelly of life rarely featured in sub-saharan African literature. Set in a bar in an unnamed Congolese mining town, Tram 83 follows poet Lucien and his escapades with a cast of writers, drunkards, drug dealers and dreamers. Published in English by Jacaranda Press and translated by Roland Glasser, Mujila’s novel has been described by the Rumpus as a tale that “delights in absurdities” and extracts “epic poetry from violence, despair and distraction”. Speaking to Africa is a Country, Mujila said: “I wanted Tram to be able to represent a form of exploitation and neocolonialism that happens throughout Africa, not just in the Congo.” Tram83 – extract
IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE STONE, AND THE STONE PROMPTED OWNERSHIP, AND OWNERSHIP A RUSH, AND THE RUSH BROUGHT AN INFLUX OF MEN OF DIVERSE APPEARANCE WHO BUILT RAILROADS THROUGH THE ROCK, FORGED A LIFE OF PALM WINE, AND DEVISED A SYSTEM, A MIXTURE OF MINING AND TRADING. Northern Station. Friday. Around seven or nine in the evening. “Patience, friend, you know full well our trains have lost all sense of time.” The Northern Station was going to the dogs. It was essentially an unfinished metal structure, gutted by artillery, train tracks, and locomotives that called to mind the railroad built by Stanley, cassava fields, cut-rate hotels, greasy spoons, bordellos, Pentecostal churches, bakeries, and noise engineered by men of all generations and nationalities combined. It was the only place on earth you could hang yourself, defecate, blaspheme, fall into infatuation, and thieve It was the only place on earth you could hang yourself, defecate, blaspheme, fall into infatuation, and thieve without regard to prying eyes. Indeed, an air of connivance hung ever about the place. Jackals don’t eat jackals. They pounce on the turkeys and partridges, and devour them. According to the fickle but ever-recurring legend, the seeds of all resistance movements, all wars of liberation, sprouted at the station, between two locomotives. And as if that weren’t enough, the same legend claims that the building of the railroad resulted in numerous deaths attributed to tropical diseases, technical blunders, the poor working conditions imposed by the colonial authorities – in short, all the usual clichés. Northern Station. Friday. Around seven or nine. He’d been there nearly three hours, jostling with the passers-by as he waited for the train to arrive. Lucien had been at pains to insist on the sense of time, and on these trains that broke all records of derailment, delay, and overcrowding. Requiem had better things to do than wait for this individual who, with the passing of the years, had lost all importance in his eyes. Ever since he’d turned his back on Marxism, Requiem called everyone who deprived him of his freedom of thought and action armchair communists and slum ideologues. He had merchandise to deliver, his life depended on it. But the train carrying that son of a bitch Lucien was dragging its wheels.

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: 4 Things Employers Hate To See On Your Cv by Irore: 4:58pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
charming1111: In your search for employment, it is vital for you to know the information that is useful to your employers and present same on your CV.
Without further ado, outlined below is the list of 3 things employers hate to see on your CV.
1. INAPPROPRIATE EMAIL ADRESSESS: Email addresses such as tega2fine@yahoo.com and tinasexy4lagos@hotmail.com, should not be found on your CV. These email addresses does not portray you as a professional and as such, employers hate to see it on your CV. An example of email address that should be found on your CV is adebayojarvis@something.com.
2. DON’T ATTACH YOUR PHOTO TO YOUR CV: Please do not attach your photograph to your CV. Employers are always looking for reasons to screen out applicants; a photograph on your CV might create room for you to be screened out.
However, the exception to this rule is if the employer makes it mandatory that all applicants must affix their photos on their CVs.
3. POOR FORMATING: All the information on your CV should be typed using the same font. A combination of fonts like century gothic, arial black, times new roman, etc, on one CV, should be avoided because, it won’t look attractive to your employers.
FOR MORE INFORMATION, KINDLY VISIT:http://www.infongr.com/2016/03/4-things-employers-hate-to-see-on-your.html Contact address is no longer advised on CV's these days. Where is the secondary and primary school portfolio? The owner of the sample cv must be widely travelled. |
