WebmastersHow Reliable Is Globalhosting247 by Jamieb(op): 6:40pm On May 01, 2013
not only is their advert showing on almost every page of Nairaland but after going through their plans I can agree that it is worth a shot but where i am really discouraged is their mode of payment. They do not have an online payment system rather a bank deposit. My question is that has any one hosted with them. If any, how many days does it take for them to set up your site? I would appreciate your replies.
Romance10 Things You Shouldn't Say To A Single Lady by Jamieb(op): 12:02pm On Apr 29, 2013
The next time you're tempted to
advise single friends, bite your
tongue. "You may believe you're
empathizing, but intrusive
comments may offend your friend,"
says Helen Friedman, PhD, a clinical
psychologist in St. Louis who
specializes in relationships. "Before
you open your mouth, ask yourself
what's more important: your
opinion or your friendship?" Here's
what to avoid saying to your single
friends , what you can sometimes
say or do instead and when to
simply zip your lips.Photo by Getty
Images
1. "Why aren't you married?" This
question almost universally pushes
single people's buttons. "Perhaps
the answer is 'none of your
business,'" says *Grace from
Detroit. In fact, it's rude to assume
singles are looking for a
relationship. "This question
presumes that the single person is
unhappily single," says Bella
DePaulo, PhD, author ofSingled
OutandSinglismwho blogs about
singles. "Many unattached people
live their best, most authentic lives
as singles." So stay away from this
question and its variations-"Don't
you want to be married?" "Have
you ever been married?"
2. "Have you tried online dating?"
True, people find relationships
online . But this assumes your
friend is clueless and hasn't
thought of it herself. "I can't tell
you how many people have
suggested online dating like it's
never been suggested before," says
*Idora from Boston. "The truth is
the ratio of disappointing dates is
the same online as it is offline.'"
Furthermore, avoid sharing details
about people you know who've
found someone online; it has zero
bearing on your friend's life. Finally,
remember that offering dating
advice implies there's something
wrong with being single, says Dr.
Friedman. 3. "Stop being so picky."
"Avoid name-calling. This comment
basically slaps your friend's wrists
and accuses her of faulty judgment,
as if she can't trust her own wants
and needs," says Dr. Friedman. If
she brings up being frustrated with
the dating pool, a better approach
is to respond with, "It's challenging
to find the right person for you,"
which acknowledges the realities
of dating without criticizing her.
And while it's OK to ask about what
qualities she's looking for in a
mate, don't add what sheshouldbe
seeking.

Should Start Breaking.
4. "You'll find the perfect guy when
you're not looking." This is a lose-
lose comment. On one hand, this
assumes your friend is on the hunt
when she may be content with
single life. On the other hand, "This
comment is disempowering if your
friend actually is seeking a
relationship," says Dr. Friedman.
"It's the equivalent of saying, 'Just
sit and wait for someone.'" Instead,
affirm how much youcare for your
friendby continuing to do things
you both love together and
inviting her to events because you
enjoy her company-not because
you feel sorry for her.
5. "What ever happened with
[insert ex's name here]?" This is
one of the worst things you can
say to your friend, according to
experts. "When a relationship ends,
there's usually some degree of
sadness, even if your friend is the
one who initiated the breakup,"
says Diana Kirschner, PhD, author
ofFind Your Soulmate Online in Six
Simple Steps."Dredging everything
back up is hurtful." Skip this
question; if she wants to talk about
it, she'll bring it up on her own.
6. "You're so lucky to be single!"
Even if you're reminiscing about
your own carefree days of
singledom, no one wants to hear
this. "Just because I've never
experienced marriage doesn't
mean I don't miss that experience
or think of what it might mean to
me," says Grace. "I'm sure people in
a relationship think the
independence of being single is
preferable at times. Yet singles
have all the responsibilities of life
without someone to share them."
How you can help: "Be cognizant of
the fact that singles don't have a
partner to do something with 24/7
and may need someone
occasionally," says Idora. So offer
her a ride to the airport, help
moving and whatever else she
could use.

Affair.
7. "If you'd get out there, you'd
find someone." "This rubs me the
wrong way because you have no
idea what I've tried or how
aggressive or passive I might be,"
says Grace. "Maybe I'm shy and it
isn't my personality to be the
pursuer. Or maybe my workplace
doesn't put me in contact with
many other singles." Still, there's
no harm in seeing if she's open to
meeting someone you know. "Just
don't spring it on her," says Dr.
Kirschner. "Say something like, 'So-
and-so is coming to the party on
Sunday and he's funny and nice.
You might enjoy talking to him."
And leave it at that.
8. "You should smile more/flirt
more/wear your hair differently/
wear more makeup." It's hard to
imagine anyone finding these
useful, but singles say they
frequently hear these rude
suggestions. "It's smug to think
that because I'm single, I clearly am
doing something wrong," says
Idora. Most of all, "This assumes
that you're the all-knowing
superior person who can diagnose
the 'problem' and dole out advice
about how to fix it," says Dr.
DePaulo. "Plenty of single people
don't think they need to be fixed.
And they're right. Even singles who
want to be coupled don't always
welcome unsolicited advice."
Refrain from all attempts to teach
your friend how to act or look, and
respect and love her for her unique
self.
9. "You're still young. You'll find
someone." You're probably trying
to make her feel good about
herself, but this kind of remark
usually backfires. "She may think: 'I
must look old. Why else would she
feel the need to reassure me?'"
says Dr. Kirschner. Besides, age has
no bearing on one's ability to love
or be loved, so don't spout
platitudes that only perpetuate this
myth.
Related: 75 Things Men Don't Know
About Women
10. "Maybe you're meant to be
single." You don't have a crystal
ball any more than your friend
does. "I want to share my life with
someone; I don'tneedto," says
*Nicola in New York City. "But I'm
not giving up on lasting love
simply because it hasn't happened
yet-sameas I wouldn't tell
someone to give up on her dream
at any age to go to college or start
her own business or see the world.
How dare anyone tell me to?" With
that bit of common sense, this is
one thought that should never be
said aloud.

WebmastersRe: Can I Learn Web Design And Development As A Self-tutor by Jamieb(op): 4:52pm On Mar 13, 2013
yorme: It's a nice one that you have a burning desire to be a website designer/developer. I must really commend you for that.

Well, to be a website designer/developer is not that difficult as you may think. It's all about your personal dedication and passion.
Firstly, let me clarify the difference between website design and website development.

Website design has to do with creating a nice the user interface for the users of a website. For you to be a very good website designer, you must master your HTML, CSS (Javascript inclusive, if you want dynamism) and also graphics softwares such as fireworks and Photoshop. These are the major tools you need, except if you meet with meet with new tools as you grow in website designs.

Website development, on the other hand, goes beyond just the user interface. Rather, it deals with the dynamism of your website. As a website developer, you must also acquire skills in a web programming language and web technologies such as PHP, Ajax, Jsp, Javascript, e.t.c. You must also know about working with databases (especially if the website you are developing requires getting some already existing data somewhere). To work with databases, you must acquire enough knowledge in any of MySQL SQLite, e.t.c.

To start your journey in website design/development, you need to start with HTML, then you proceed to CSS. After these, you can now decide to develop yourself by learning Javascript, PHP, MySQL, e.t.c.

I can't really talk much on this. But i hope this little information has helped.
bro, i must thank you for this extensive lecture. I now know the steps i have to take towards becoming a web designer-cum-developer which i intend to master fully before i finish my nysc so i can have something to fall back on if the job aint coming. Thanks a lot. I woudn't mind if others can still elucidate on the benefits of becoming a web designer-cum-developer.
