Now I still don't understand.
Why do adults have healthy weights, yet the there are so many underweight children?
Are parents being irresponsible?

slimming: Real life situation is better judge rather than using data.

That is Bullshit, data is representative of realife, and it is accurate.

Iso files can be used for just about anything.
No, you only need a emulator if it is a xbox, ps3, ps3, wii or any console game.
Make sure it is a computer PC game. Check your system requirements.
And I wouldn't get a emulator, many emulators have viruses.

Here are some good games for a older or slower computer:
Morrowind
Halo 1
Spore
Dawn Of War 1
Trackmania
Sims 2

Surprisingly, Body Mass Index, and blood pressure do not relate to each other.
Nigeria and Japan have higher blood pressures than the United States. Nigeria is a slim country with high blood pressure.

Some say that people of black-african ancestry store more salt because they live in a hot climate. That is wrong, because Indians, Vietnamese, and Thai people live in a hotter climate than Nigeria, and still have lower blood pressure.

So, what do you think?

The average bmi (body mass index) for Nigerian men is 23. 23 is normal and healthy, but that is slim compared to America. The average bmi for men in America is 28.
The average bmi for Nigerian women is 24, and that is also normal and healthy, but slimmer than America. The average bmi for American women is 28.

So, it seems that adults are getting enough food, but what about children? In Nigeria there are alot of underweight children, although not as much as India, the number is too high.

So from what you Nigerians see, is food in short supply?

Fulaman198: No African countries are native European Language speakers except maybe Angola, Cape Verde and Mozambique. Other than that, French and English are mainly colonial languages used in African countries. We have our own ethnic languages which we are very proud of like Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, Fulfulde, etc. etc.

But those languages don't even have an alphabet and they are not written. You people use letters from the latin alphabet in phrases like "na wa O"
Why do people use a language doesn't have its own written form?

Gbamar: At first i thought i was posting to an illiterate but now i realize that u're an educated illiterate,who try to make fish out of one and fowl of another.I will reply your text gradually:Firstly your text show your incompetences, DESPITE THE FACT OF MY CLARIFICATION (About ISLAM) YOU STILL FIND IT DIFFICULT TO DEFEND YOUR (SACRIFICIAL LAMP) RELIGION. Meaning:YOU'RE IGNORANT/CONFUSED ABOUT YOUR RELIGION And shamefully exhibiting shallow comment about others Religion.YES THE BATTLE LINE HAS BEEN DRAWN.fool,AND TO YOUR QUESTION I'M NOT A TROLL(I THINK YOU JUST WATCH MERLIN.WHERE TROLL WAS MENTION.U JUST WANT TO SHOW-OFF).

No, I am not religious, but I criticizes Islam, because it is the worst of all the religions. Islam is the destructive one that causes the most blood shed. Christianity caused a lot of blood shed, but they are more calm now. Buddhism doesn't make people murder, and Jews are only trying to protect their own land.

Islam on the other hand encourages people to kill, conquer, and forcefully convert people using the Jihad. I believe in SCIENCE not all that insane stuff.

Oh, and for the record, stop typing in all CAPS! I can see your post clearly, and I do not care how angry you are. You must have a low intelligence. http://www.israpundit.com/archives/34873

Social COnservatives like you, especially Muslims have a lower intelligence level. http://plancksconstant.org/blog1/2010/03/muslim_iq.html


Why should I bother trying to argue with an unintelligent person?
You didn't even address all the topics that I mentioned in my previous post. You probably can't comprehend everything that I am saying to you right now.

you should find something from their

kambili190: Japan's state deficit (= debt) is very high. in fact, higher than in Greece. almost 200 % of the GDP.
it's not a wealthy country.
however, I have come to realize that all wealthy countries gurantee women certain rights, don't reduce their role to the household duties, educate them well and so increase the competititon and therefore the productivity of the country

A High debt does not mean a country is broke. The U.S. has a very high deficit, and it doesn't have to pay it back. The U.S. is so powerful, that other countries can't do anything about it if we don't pay off our debts. Japan also does not have to worry about it's debt, there is little the countries they owe can do about it.

Ptolomeus: Si, en español fútbol...
The american footbal is horrible

It is not horrible. The violence makes it exciting, and it is a vary difficult competitive sport. You get to watch players get ran over and knocked out on the field. You can also see the Qaurterback making beautiful passes.

Football has a lot of strategy, and plays to remember, so unintelligent people won't appreciate it. I played football before, as a Defensive End, and the fun part is the violent nature of the game. Football is not for wimps. If someone isn't manly enough, they should play soccer.

People should be allowed to do almost anything they want to do, except for the most basic crimes of stealing, murdering, and rape. Islam is dangerous.
Did you read the article about Islam and suicide bombings?

It is not my duty to educate you, if you don't understand, then do some freaking research.

ifyalways: Hear ye,hear ye!
Our Ninglish teacher have "spoked".
Salut Msr Jean but your presence is very much needed @ the 'Native English speakers' thread to clarify some interesting points.

Is that sarcasm that I sense?

Polygamy is impeding the process of Liberalism.

Liberalism is good, and liberals are more intelligent because they excerpt ideas that are evolutionary novel http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-scientific-fundamentalist/201003/why-liberals-are-more-intelligent-conservatives

Both men and women need to be sexually free, and not restrained by so called "morals". Japan and Sweden are good examples of sexually free countries, and they are not "whores".

Now do you agree with me??

I wish the American Democratic Party would spread their leftist glory to Nigeria.

Islamic Heretics must be crushed. They are impeding progress of society.

Africa needs to adopt the Moral principles of Northern Europe, Japan, and the U.S. Those are countries that really care for their own people, and have a high level of human rights. They help other fellow human beings, NOT Allah!

I believe poor people should have very little or no children, and rich people should have very few. Two children should be the maximum.

Also polygamy does not raise children better. Despite the fact that mothers have more financial support they don't always raise and support their children better.
Often times some of the women feel the other wives will take care of their children, and they might neglect their motherly duties. I read an article from a woman herself who neglected her children, and would lay in the bed all day.
The male children often lack a father figure since their father invests little personal time with his children. A father figure is needed to show them how to be MANLY, and to pass on some of the most basic moral principles.

As for the mutilation, the sewing can maker her too tight which will cause her pain. There is no need for additional tightness, especially on a virgin. The muscles areound the vagina control the tightness. I personally prefer women whom are somewhat loose, and are not virgins.


I must defend this thread against fiendish beings like you!
I find your lack of understanding for the suffering of your own society disturbing.

No response?
I guess this means that there is no Liberal Political Party in Nigeria.

ANy comment?

MRbrownJAY: @OP
oh lawd, what a funny thread. you are indeed a comedian, i give you that!!!

A) the less wealthy men are left out.
even, if these rich guys wouldnt marry these girls, it wouldnt turn these girl towards these poor men. these ladies would simply become these rich guy's mistress. you really think a 9ja lady will turn down being a rich man's mistress to be a a poor man's wife? lol!!!! who go buy Brazilian hair? who go buy BB Porsche?
you are talking as if you do not know our sistas. even with a job, they will still settle for the rich daddy over a poor man! poor man in 9ja is synonymous with failure!

B) These men are also more likely to rape women.
bwaaaah!!!! first of all, lets get something straight: MANY RA.PISTS OUT THERE ARE "HAPPILY" MARRIED!!!!! a ra.pist will be a ra.pist whether married or single. pls dont blame these evil guy's insane brains on rich men and polygamy.

C) As for the women, the ugly women are left out.
rich or poor, no man wants to settle with an ugly duckling........so stop blaming these people's failure to find a mate on polygamy, when its bloody obvious that their look is the problem.

D) Rich men usually have more "dark triad" or sociopath traits, and they are mostly genetics.
oh lawd! come on bro, do you really believe the stuff you write. this silly above statement doesnt even deserve a reply.

E) Another problem is the techniques people use to reduce illicit sex. A rich man would not want another man getting his wives pregnant, so people's genitals must be mutilated to suppress sex.
if you were smart, you would know that rich or poor do such evil act, not against pregnancy but against the stoopid belief that it will guard against promiscuity. duh!!! most of these ladies are mutilated WELL before the day they meet their prospective husband (most often by their parents), EDUCATE YOURSELF!!!!

F) Women often have their clitoris (the female version of a penis. gives pleasure to women)removed as well as other parts from a painfully unskilled surgeon. Men often have their foreskin reduced and sometimes other cuts. These surgeries can make sex painful for both men and women.

ahahahahahahaha on the day of the surgery, yeah, but after a few month there will be NO PAIN WHATSOEVER FROM THE CIRCUMCISION. the only thing this does for women is to reduce pleasure from s[b]e[/b]x by removing the cl[b]i[/b]toris (if the woman is cl[b]i[/b]toridal). if she is vag.inal then she will get pleasure and or[b]g[/b]asm from the friction INSIDE her v[b]a[/b]gina, not the stimulation of her cl[b]i[/b]toris. so this procedure certainly does not stop anyone from having s[b]e[/b]x. if you even knew where the cl[b]i[/b]toris is, you would understand that someone could have s[b]e[/b]x and not even be in contact with it. lol!

you do sound like someone who has NO IDEA what you are talking about.

Not just raping, but the unmarried men are more likely to do crime. They are not burdened by a wife and children, so they are carefree. Since they don't have to provide or be there for anyone, they feel is ok to risk losing their own life while doing crimes. They are also more likely to steal so that they can have enough wealth to attract a mate.

As for genital mutilation, the opening of women's vagina is sometimes sewed, and the extra tightness and scars can cause permanent pain during sexual activity. Also the psychological trauma can cause them to develop a fear of penetration.


This is not an attack on rich men, but I am criticizing society. Rich men actually don't want to have many wives, they simply want to have sex with many women. Sometimes, very rich men in America have prostitutes, and multiple girl friends. They still provide for the women in money.




Lastly, you never said anything on my comment about population growth. You know that its true that polygamy increases the birth rates. You should also know that the population growth MUST BE RDUCED.

PAGAN 9JA:
I STRONGLY PROCLAIM THAT IF YOU DONT SHUT UP, I WILL INVOKE SHANGO TO DESTROY YOU. I STRONGLY PROCLAIM THAT IF YOU DONT SHUT UP, I WILL INVOKE SHANGO TO DESTROY YOU.

Should have expected an idiot would try to shove their beliefs on people's faces in this thread. I think you might be a troll because you write like THIS.
Stop using all caps. Besides Islam is bad for people it causes a lot of suffering, sexual frustration, and even genital mutilation.

First of all, we were not saying anything bad or negative against Islam at first. But now, you just started a conflict.

In Iraq, a Muslim girl burned to death inside a school building before. Her dad wouldn't rescue her because she was not wearing her head scarf. What evil!
Muslims kill and slaughter Jews, Christians, Hindus and other religions. Their Jihad is forceful. Muslim Arabs kill black Africans in places like Darfur. Muslims like to conquer other people and force them to worship Allah, and Allah is a deceitful god.

Islamic men are more likely to commit suicide, and terrorists attacks because they have less sex. http://www.city-journal.org/html/15_4_suicide_bombers.html

Islam cause high population growth, so you get over population, and over population causes poverty. People have more kids than what they can take care of.

Conclusion

No Islam = Happier People

I cant stand hot moist conditions. I live in a dry climate in fairly high altitude.

When it is hot and humid, my skin breaks out in acne and rashes, and gets sensitive. I also get chafe and frictions burns easily. I tend to get stomach sickness like vomiting and diarrhea. I get covered in mosquito bumps, and I feel faint and dizzy easily.
The only good thing is that I lose weight in hot weather.

T prefer cold, dry, and cloudy weather. I also like frost, because frost is good for my skin. It closes the pores, stops acne, rashes, and inflammation. Long winters give me lighter clearer skin.
Americans of all races prefer to stay cool with air conditioning, ice cold drinks, ice cream, cool foods, and cool swimming pools.


So how do you Nigerians manage all the heat and humidity? I heard you eat hot spicy food and drink hot strong coffee on hot days. Why do you like feeling hot.

In order to reduce the population growth, Polygamy must be stopped. In polygamy, women have a lot of children because they know their husband is will support them, and they have other women help take care of their children. Unfortunately, when each wife has so many kids, they might find out that their man is not as rich as they thought he was.

This causes over population, and over population increase crime and poverty. The wealthiest nations of the world have low birth rates, such as Japan, and the United States. Women should focus more on the opportunities each of their children have to be successful, not the amount oaf kids. If they actually love their kids, why do they need so many of them. If they want to please their husband then they should use birth control. Surely their wealthy husband can afford it for them.

In polygamy, a wealthy man supports multiple wives, and her children. This makes the lives of his wives much easier, because they don't have to worry about money, and they get to share their chores, man-pleasing, and child care with other women.

But how does this affect society as a whole in the long run?
Well, lets look at the problems with that system....

First of all, the less wealthy men are left out. These left out men will become more aggressive and hostile because they are not suppressed by a woman's charms. We know hostile and aggressive people are bad for society. These men are also more likely to rape women. As for the women, the ugly women are left out. Who would want to spend money on a ugly woman?
The ugly women are will have to support them self with jobs, and they'll be facing tough competition with men.

Another problem is one that effects the genetics of the society. Rich men usually have more "dark triad" or sociopath traits, and they are mostly genetics.
Those traits are: greed, lust for power, excessive sexual lust, lack of care for others, disregard of rules, and high aggression.
The wives of those men will give birth to children with those "dark triad" traits. Most children will be borne from those rich men with "dark triad" traits. Poor men won't have any kids.

All of this results in a aggressive and hostile society. Another problem is the techniques people use to reduce illicit sex. A rich man would not want another man getting his wives pregnant, so people's genitals must be mutilated to suppress sex.

Women often have their clitoris (the female version of a penis. gives pleasure to women)removed as well as other parts from a painfully unskilled surgeon. Men often have their foreskin reduced and sometimes other cuts. These surgeries can make sex painful for both men and women.

PapaBrowne: I think more than a choice, Poverty is a state of mind influenced by the choices we have made over time.
Let me use what I will describe as the PawPaw Theory to explain why I think poverty has to do with the choices we make.

Let me start with an illustration in the form of a story.

Two fellows, poor and hungry bricklayers, living in Lagos were given a large Pawpaw fruit each.
One of them(Lets call him John) looked at the fruit and said, HA thank God, this PawPaw go quench my hunger. So he ate the fruit and threw the seeds away.
The other(Lets call him Jerry) looked at it and saw something different. He saw a plantation. A massive plantation. So he ate the fruit and kept the seeds.


A few statistics about PawPaw before I proceed with my story.

*A pawpaw fruit has about 500 seeds on average.
*It starts producing fruit after the 1st year and does so for 3 more years
*Each tree produces on average 20 harvestable fruits a year.
*Average price of pawpaw in Nigeria is 150-250 Naira.

Next day, John and Jerry go to work. They are paid 1000 naira each for that day's Job.
John buys himself enough beans and Garri to last him for one week.
Jerry on the other hand, buys a Hoe and uses the rest to pay transport back to his village- PawPaw seeds in hand!

500 pawpaw seeds planted grew to 500 pawpaw trees.
In one year, the trees produced 500 x 20= 10,000 pawpaw Fruits.
He harvested all, but kept fresh seeds from 200 fruits for planting in the next year.
200 x 500 = 100,000 seeds.
[img]http://x333xxx.files./2010/01/paw-paw.jpg[/img]

He sold 9000 fruits at wholesale for 70 Naira each.
He made a cool 630,000 Naira in the first year.

He took more land and planted his 100,000 seeds.
These new trees produces 100,000 x 20 = 2 million pawpaw fruits.

He harvested all 2 million fruits and sold wholesale for 20 Naira each.
He made a whooping 40 Million Naira in the second year!!

John on the other hand was still bricklaying in Lagos and buying Beans and Garri for the week anytime he is paid 1000 Naira.
John is waiting for Government to improve his life.
Jerry on the other hand has improved his life and he would employ hundreds of villagers to harvest his pawpaw. His Pawpaw is in high demand and foreing companies are beginning to make inquires. So he plants more and more and gets more and more money!!

All Jerry did was to make a better choice than John.

it cant be that easy

Why is Education so low in Nigeria, and what could be done to fix it.

Looks like my previous post was freaking deleted. So here i go again (sigh)

Most poor people lack the ambition to strive to be rich. Many of them a already content with thier lives. Remember that money does NOT buy happiness, nor does education, material wealth, or life span. Happiness comes from within. It comes From whats in your heart.

Furthermore, most poor people have a low level of intelligence. It is clear that a lack of intelligence is the main cause of poverty. To make things worse, poor and unintelligent people have more kids that they can't even support.

So what's the liberal party in Nigeria?

look here this will help you. https://www.nairaland.com/927045/how-2-play-awesome-games#10718569
