Amerinancy: Men are created to be the head and women as supplemental helpers, not equal gender.

Nice post but I quite disagree with the lines quoted above. "So God created man (plural entity) in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." A male is not superior to a female; from creation they've been made to be equal. But in marriage institution, there was Adam before Eve that's where the whole idea of submission was conceived.
On a good day I'd have overlooked the above quoted comment, but especially in this part of the world, where women have comfortably taken the role of a second fiddle in the society because of their inability to differentiate a husband from fellow men (plural entity).
Being submissive to your husband does not relate at all with being inferior to a man.
Personally, I believe chastity shouldn't be seen as a conduct placed on the shoulders of femininity making it look as if masculinity is exempted. Whose body is the temple of the Lord - women only or both man and woman? In essence, don't blame it on the women alone but also on the men who don't know what it means to be raised by a Queen.

Since women happen to most often be at the receiving end of a bad relationship, these 10 pointers are very necessary in order to avoid any unjustified emotional damages.
#1. Never fall for his height without checking his heart. There's no point in good looking when he's horrible at heart.
#2. Where a man is going is far better than where he stands in life. Look beyond the present and zoom your foresight like an Eagle.
#3. Age has nothing to do with maturity. Growing old and growing up is never the same. Dating older guys does not guarantee perfection  in a relationship. There's no age benchmark for wisdom or foolishness in life. But if he's not wise @40 he might be a fool for life.
#4. If he is GOD fearing (i.e he makes effort to keep you from sin or anything that'll seperate or decline your relationship with your Creator) you are good to go.
#5. If He's not meant for YOU he can NEVER be for YOU. Don't keep him longer than he should stay when already he's one-foot outside. Anything less than the best is not good for you.
#6. Never accept a man without seeking God's opinion. The fact that he's in church does not make him a saint. There're things you can't see beyond your eyes that only God can fathom. That's why today, so many heartbreaks are blessings in disguise.
#7. Never present yourself as too cheap. A man will learn to treat a lady the way she treats herself. You don't need a man to be happy; what you need is a man to share your love and happiness with who's ready to reciprocate. Nobody in his right frame of mind disposes gold without counting the cost.
#8. Whoever is used to freedom will surely hate control. Men love freedom while women love attention. Never deprive a man of his freedom. Give him his space and never choke him.The reason why many men are afraid of commitment is because they are afraid a woman who is very possessive during courtship or dating can make his life miserable when he finally settle down with her.
#9. Marriage is not a career while relationship is not a job. No man wants a liability. It doesn't matter how beautiful you look, do something with your life. Marriage doesn't mean your life has to stop.
#10. When you rely on a man for everything, be ready to accept anything he throws at you.Be financially independent. Decision making can be very difficult if your man is your only source of income in life. Many women are stuck in miserable situations because they are relying on their man for everything in life.

A friend of mine is in search of a reputable and affordable institute either between Canada or California, USA to study Computer sci and/or Law.
I don't want to rely on results from search engines; i would prefer to hear from peeps who're either studying in these countries or have any relatives who've studied or are currently studying there to please feed me with reliable information...
Thanks

A young girl becomes a bird in the snare of the fowler due to her high level of ignorance and foolishness because she has either by default or otherwise refused to embrace knowledge.
Your first task as a man is to know yourself – who you are. Identify your seed (sperm), nurture and treasure your seed before you plant. The guy has the seed while the girl owns the land (vagina - holy of holies) upon which he plants; though, planting is subject to the right season.
As a girl, the first thing you do to your land is not to plant on it. Identify your land by knowing who you're and then you build a wall/fence/security around your land. Your private parts should remain private (covered) but when you advertise them, you're calling for the public whether knowingly or unknowingly for an initial public offer to subscribe. You want to dress like the Beyonces but between the Beyonces and Mrs Obama who would you rather become like - food for thought.
If two people have sex, who gets pregnant - boy or girl? If they decide to go for an abortion, who goes for abortion - boy or girl? If during abortion somebody dies, who dies - boy or girl? If there's no death but there're complications and somebody loses her womb, who loses the womb - boy or girl? If they didn’t go for abortion, somebody needs to drop out of school because of pregnancy, who drops out of school - boy or girl? If somebody needs to begin to sell “booli” (roasted plantain) on the roadside to raise the child, who does that - boy or girl? If the society would knock somebody off his/her perch, who do they stigmatize - boy or girl? So who's the fool, boy or girl? And who should be wise, boy or girl? WISE UP & ZIP UP!
If you're a guy and you don’t know who you're and you're having sex, you're not better than a dog; you're like an animal because if you know who you're there are things you won’t do. But when you see a girl and your body is already vibrating, you obviously don’t know who you're.

You might be wondering whether you need to use a cover letter at all. The answer to that question is simple and straightforward: Every job seeker must have a cover letter. There are virtually no exceptions to this rule, unless a particular
company or recruiter has instructed you to forward just a resume, without a cover letter.
There is no doubt that a great cover letter can make the difference in whether you get noticed or passed over. A great cover letter can be a powerful marketing tool that does all of the following:
- Positions you above the competition.
- Sells your qualifications and your successes.
- Demonstrates your knowledge, experience, and expertise.
- Creates excitement, enthusiasm, and action (and thus, an interview).

Now, what are you going to send to that company? First, you will include your resume, full of factual information about your experience, educational credentials, and more. Your resume, in and of itself, is a powerful tool to sell your qualifications and highlight your achievements. However, the typical scenario is that you will prepare just one resume and use it for every employment contact you make—including cold calls, newspaper ad responses, online posting responses, networking communications, and more.
Your cover letter serves a different purpose. It is designed as a personal introduction to who you are, custom-made for that specific opportunity, and allowing you the chance to communicate a great deal of information about yourself—both the personal you and the professional you. In theory, you’re taking excerpts from your resume—the most important excerpts as
they relate to a specific position—and rewording them to communicate the same concepts, qualifications, experiences, and accomplishments, just in different words. It is not a good idea, however, to type word-for-word the exact language that you’ve already used in your resume. One of the other advantages of cover letters is that you can be creative in both content and presentation. There is no one standard format that you must follow.
The Top 10 Strategies for Writing Winning Cover Letters
1. Make it easy for someone to understand “who” you are.
Are you a sales representative, actuary, nurse, college professor, chemical engineer, restaurant manager, customer service agent, or architect? Be sure to clearly communicate that information at the beginning of your cover letter. Don’t make someone read three paragraphs to find this critical information. No one is going to take the time and energy to figure it out!
2. Use a unique and professional format when writing and typing your cover letters.
Don’t fall into the trap of using cover letter formats that have been used for years and now appear worn out. Make your
letters visually attractive and distinctive—not the overused “standard” formats. Take a look at all the samples in this book to see how creative yet professional you can be in writing the text and designing the presentation.
3. Highlight your most relevant qualifications.
Use your cover letters to highlight your skills, experiences, qualifications, honors, awards, and credentials that are directly relevant to the company’s needs and the type of position and/or career path you are pursuing.
4. Shine a spotlight on your most relevant achievements.
Be certain to highlight your career successes, results, and accomplishments that will be most meaningful to the letter’s intended audience.
5. Include information that you know about the company or the position for which you are applying.
If you know any particulars about the company to which you are writing (for example, core issues, challenges,
market opportunities, products, services, staffing changes, or management changes), be sure to address those items in your cover letter. What’s more, relate specifically how your experience can meet the company’s needs and provide solutions to its challenges.
6. Explain why you want to work for this company in particular.
Do you want to work for the company because of its reputation, financial standing, products, services, personnel, location, or market potential? Why this company? Everyone likes a good “pat on the back” for a job well done. Companies are no different. Tell them what they’re doing right that caught your attention.
7. Be sure that your cover letters are neat, clean, and well presented.
Remember, cover letters are business documents, not advertising materials. They should be attractive and relatively conservative, not “over-designed.”
8. Double-check, triple-check, and then have someone else check your letter to be sure that it is error-free!
Remember, people don’t meet you; they meet a piece of paper. And that piece of paper—your cover letter—reflects the quality and caliber of the work you will do on their behalf. Even the smallest of errors is unacceptable.
9. Keep your cover letters short! Cover letters are not essays. We recommend a one-page letter in nearly all circumstances.
10. Always remind yourself why you are writing each cover letter and be sure to ask for the interview!
Remember, securing an interview is your number-one objective for each cover letter that you write.

Whether we believe it or not, there are guys who still lack the gut when it comes to wooing a lady they admire. As a strong macho, who knows exactly what he wants, the truth is no lady should be "too big" for you to approach no matter the height of the stiletto heel she's wearing or wetin she gather follow body (permit me to use our local parlace). It's not a crime to like somebody but it would if you are waiting for the perfect time to say how you feel because that "perfect time" may never come until you eventually lose her to some sweet talkers. Notwithstanding, there are few lessons that could be of help to ginger your swagger in that department.
Lesson 1: Self Confidence
A man must be and show that he's a man otherwise he's still a boy. If a man does not know what he wants, i can definitely tell you he can never get what he wants. A guy must have first convinced himself why he deserves or should have a lady before he can gainfully convince her. As a guy, you should start by asking yourself the five good qualities you possess that would push a girl to want to have anything to do with you - is it your look? the way you talk? your brilliance? etc But if you cannot answer that question, then you've not done your homework well. The easiest way to get knocked down even before her rejection or "initial gragra" is when you feel you are not good enough to have her. Look yourself in the mirror and say "I LOOK GOOD!"
Lesson 2: Breaking the ice (Starting a conversation with somebody you've been eyeing)
- Approach the person with morale by the way you walk towards her and through your communication
- Follow it up with some nice compliments to begin a conversation. "Hello! you look good" is a good start. Keep your compliment on a modest level; there's no need sending off a wrong signal even when you seldom do not exactly mean what you say. Contrary to what some guys may think, ladies do think very fast especially when a guy is approaching them for the first time. Telling a lady she looks sexy when actually she knows she looks quite simple in her dressing, quickly tells her the kind of person you are and what you are after. So you may want to be careful of what you say in order not to be misunderstood.
- Always be yourself - no dey form. Talk normal and cut the crap about trying to evoke a personality you do not possess.
- Learn to smile even when she wearing a long face - trying to give all that attitude.
Lesson 3: The art of conversation
Let's assume she has agreed to give it a try. The only thing that keeps any relationship going is communication. It is a known fact that ladies like to talk - (ladies abi na lie?) but the onus most of the time lies on the guy to lend an ear. Conversation is all about listening and answering questions. Bros, if she has nothing to say, you'd better got something to say or else both of you may just end up staring at each other - most ladies can be very reserved especially on their first outing. If you can win a girl's attention on your first date then you can be rest assured it may go all the way...
Before i forget, this is the nitty-gritty (the koko) if you desire to add more flavor in your conversation. A guy should be flexible and have a great sense of humour - don't be too formal even in your choice of questions. Asking a lady you just met "what are your long term goals?" for instance makes you sound kind of rigid or don't you think so? Most ladies like to hang around with guys whose ambiance is never a dull moment.
Lesson 4: Start sharing
Getting close to somebody means talking about the things that matter to you, things you are passionate about and they get to love you for who you are. It is at this juncture couples begin to learn to trust each other. I tell you how I feel, you tell me how you feel too; I tell u how it's doing me, you tell me how it's doing you too...lol
Once more, you may want to also make your intentions clearer during this moments and by so doing you frame a new picture of yourself in her heart and mind. She begins now to see you differently besides whatever idea she had from her past or what she might have heard.
Lesson 5: Make her feel special
Guys hear me and hear me well: the only thing or jazz or call it whatever you like that would put a lady in a condition where her friends thinks she's been hypnotize is knowing her to make her feel special. You can give without loving but you cannot love without giving - we've heard this several times. Make her feel special whether in coin or in kind. Take her out, buy something for her no matter how little it is, tell her how beautiful she is, make her know that she means the world to you and one very important thing, no venture try forget some special moments of her life most especially her birthday - don't try it! A man that treats his girl like a Princess shows he was raised by a Queen.
Lesson 6: Getting closer
As the relationship grows, emotions become more intense. We go beyond shaking hands to sharing hugs; from just saying good night but topping it with a simple good night kiss and so on. But mind you, it's at this stage of the relationship most guys begin to show their true colours and they end up destroying something that was beautiful. There is more to hidden text than just having some few minutes of passion on the bed. I know guys don't like to hear this but it's the truth and it can never be outdated - SEX IS NOT LOVE AND LOVE IS NOT SEX. Two things play out here: he shows if he's either desperate or mature by how he controls his emotions. You are a man not because of the "long rod" you have between your legs but because you know that certain actions will require you taking the needed responsibilities. So many accidental parentage, unwanted fatherhood because the guy thinks he should do it before someone else does it behind his back. Some say "you never can tell what will happen tomorrow, so i better have something to console myself with, let it not be as if i spent all my time and money for nothing." Don't put yourself in a situation where you can't walk away from a relationship even when you know it's not working between the two of you just because you don't want to break her heart after sleeping with her. I hope am talking to real dudes and not some players or philanderers? It is easier to call it quit and move on when you no say at least you no spoil something.
Lesson 7: Compromise
By this, i mean events or things that one can adjust to and not something or demands that are nonnegotiable. If you want to be with someone you love, you do what you got do to be with them but not to lose them even if it means dressing the way she likes (modestly), finding interest in her favorite activities etc Always try to enjoy what they like and be patient to teach them what you like with enthusiasm. One of the easiest ways to lose your lady to or your man ( for the ladies) into the arms of another is when she/he enjoys doing what she likes doing most of the time with an opposite hidden text. If another man enjoys playing ludo as much as she does with her and you're always found wanting in that area; if you no take time, they may not only play ludo but also combine snake and ladder and before you know it her feelings has cross carpet - she don decamp to chelsea...lol
Lesson 8: Be in charge
Man, you gotta be in charge emotionally, physically, spiritually and otherwise. Don't ever allow yourself get too carried away that you condescend to the level where your emotion becomes the driver of your life whereas your brain is the passenger. I've seen guys crying like a baby because of a girl. For your information, girls "bad" gwon - they claim the guys started it but i'm not into that topic for now. "I so much love her" and that's why you've suddenly become her ATM, laundry boy, Sammies best customer etc ehn Mr "the guy is in love"? The truth is if you give a girl the chance to make you her puppet, she'd gladly do it so well. What a girl needs is a guy who'll make her the better girl she ought to be and not some guy who keeps running to cry on the shoulders of his friends (mummy's boy) because he's not man enough to shun and put her at her rightful place when her excesses have gone haywire and overbearing. Be careful though so you don't seem kind of too bossy but a girl needs to know that you're still in charge even when it comes to making good decisions.
I'm going to expose something I know which only a few guys may have noticed too but a majority of some other guys are still not very aware of. You hardly find a guy (i don't mean a player) "managing" a girl as he awaits until his "true love" or "Paloma" surfaces but you find this a lot common with girls. She may not be with you because she loves you or planning to let herself grow to love but the reason being she doesn't want to be left alone - she just want to "become" like the rest of her friends. By the time she finally meets her "Prince charming", the kind of guy she has always dreamt of, church abasala ( church close) - the game is over for you. This takes us to the next lesson...
Finally, Lesson 9: Follow your heart and always be honest to yourself and the other person
The truth is not all relationship leads to marriage. The worst thing that can happen to any man or woman is being hooked to the wrong person. It's a thing of the heart and not out of pity or mere sentiments. If after trying and trying and perhaps you tried more but that thing, i can't really find the right words for it; in soap opera they say it's that magic feeling that makes you feel like there's a butterfly in your belly. If she's not giving you goose bumps and you've noticed she's hardly high-spirited when you're around, that panache you can sense even from a thousand mile when a girl is in love; you must be a man and confront the truth - you are better-off a girl trying to "manage" you. Yea, it can be very painful but you just have to put your pride and ego aside and go look for your own Cinderella and not someone else's. I just got this fantastic words in my head as i was typing - i guess it came out of what i may have felt or i'm feeling for someone, lol. This is it: We can't see love but we can feel it and we can spell it. If you know, the word {L O V E} is not engross in your heart when you think or you are with that someone there's no need deceiving or suffering yourself - you're not in love with that person.
It is better to hurt someone with the truth than comfort them with lies. Know when and how to burst the bubble when it's obvious you're just not meant for each other. Life must go on!
I hope you find someone you love and who truely loves you....ciao

Ajibel: its ur fault. U are downloading win32 program when u are running on x64. Find the pygame available for x64. I think it should be there, search wella cuz besides, i dunno how to help u here and its been quite long that i've visited pygame.org

The last tym i checked which was yesterday i cudnt find any x64 pygame... Though there was a note instructing all windows 64bit users to use 32bit python software inorder to use pygame 1.9.1... From the onset if u recall, i said i needed help frm anyone who has 32bit python setup atleast to validate if the instruction from the pygame index page would eliminate my worries. I can say if it was my eyes or perhaps i didnt do my search well but i cudnt find any 32bit python to download from python.org
But let me ask you, av u tried making a game with python? if u av, how and wat did u do/use

Ajibel: Gosh!!! Buh i think there should be a pygame for x64 to download, did u check
x64 is a shitty problem

I've tried 2 diff versions of pygame i.e 1.9.1 .win32-py2.7 and 1.9.2a0.win32-py3.2 but itz still not working...

Ajibel: Are u using x86 or x64

x64

I would really appreciate it if anyone can help get me a python interpreter for windows 32bit that i can use alongside with with pygame. The windows 64bit python i have keeps showing "import error..." each time i type "import pygame" on my DLI. I hearsay the solution is to install a windows 32bit python and pygame. Concrete Suggestions and assistance are welcomed. tanx in advance

Wata pity indeed! Wat i see is a scenerio of two confused 'matured' adults. No wonder dey say ignorance is a disease. When a purpose of a tin is nt known abuse is inevitable. Love exist as well as lust bt wisdom is knowing d diff. Love involves commitment coz itz is a commandment. Its either u're in love wit odas or u're in luv wit d idea of being in love. itz such a pity a lot of persons find themselves in d later. You love ur mum and yes she loves bt weda u lk it or nt, d truth is she's in luv wit ur dad. So being 'in luv' is nt a corporate affair bt a one-in-one affair. There were several eggs in d basket bt i consciously, reasonably and deliberately took a decision to say yes to u. You could remain a misfortune or an ugly spectacle of love wen u kip refusing to understand first watz d whole essence based on d nitty-gritty of love.
For those of us who'd agree wit me dat God is love...
Use this personal tip: Before you see yes or no to any love composition, use d word 'God' as a substitute/replacement for 'love'. Thus...
1. Dos 'love exist? =» Doz 'God' exist? You can ans
2. 'Love' is blind =» 'God' is blind... true/false
3. 'Love' is jealous =» 'God' is jealous.. Y/N
4. Sex is a prove of 'love' =» Sex is a prove of 'God'
5. 'Love' is real =» 'God' is real
6. 'Love' hurts sometimes =» 'God' hurts somethings. Incase u dnt no, itz true. For emphasis read Deut 32:39
7. 'Love' forgives and forget =» 'God' forgives... etc
Wen 'good time' meet 'relationship' most times 'good time' end up having a good tym whereas 'relationship' ends up wit a broken heart. If only ladies no hw precious they are in the life of a man... a table marked 'reserved'; a vase dat is handled wit utmost care. "I'm nt afraid of falling in love bt falling for sth i tut ws love." Only love can bring togeda d beaty and d beast!!!
