@bolded. That's the punchline bro. I think I should walk with that.

@italiced. How many MB's do i get to write throughout med school?
MB after pre clinical year(Anatomy, physiology & Biochemistry), MB after first clinical year(Laboratory Medicine(made up of Histopathology, Haematology and blood tr
ansfusion, Medical Microbiology and Parasitology, Chemical Pathology) and Pharmacology), MB after 2nd clinical year(Obstetrics & gynaecology, Paediatrics). MB in final year(Internal Medicine, Surgery and Community and Family Medicine).

Long story short, four of them.
EducationRe: The medical students and aspirants thread by jjagz: 8:39am On Feb 07, 2015
Penboy:
so if I averaged 70 throughout my stay in med school, how does that set my apart from my colleagues who averaged 50 after graduation?

Does it get to show in our cv?
In every professional exam i.e MB exams you write and get above 70 in any course, you get "bragging rights" in your CV.

That said, 70 above is so almost impossible to get, it can nearly always be achieved only in pre clinicals.

However, doctors are generally judged by their ability to solve problems and not by distinctions.
EducationRe: LASU VC, John Obafunwa Has No PhD & Holds Two Jobs - ASUU by jjagz: 8:02pm On Jan 29, 2015
porka:
You people have come again.

A fellowship is a fellowship, a PhD is a PhD.

They are not the same and they are not equivalent in any way.

People still have a PhD in medicine.
You are right bro'. A PhD is a PhD and a fellowship is a fellowship. They are not equal.
But they are equivalent. Before you argue, I suggest you pick up a dictionary or your old maths textbook.

However, for the time, energy, resources and research put into getting a fellowship in any medical specialty, when appointed as lecturers, they as rated as PhD with two years research equivalent. Again, before you argue, check your facts well.

Finally, meaning no insult of course, your final statement shows your ignorance. No one gets a PhD in medicine or any medical subspecialty for that matter. Doctors may under go clinical research leading to awards of some nominally different degree which varies in different countries. In Nigeria, the only one I know is U.I which awards it as MD. An MD may be PhD equal, I don't know for sure, but even at that it is not MD in medicine, it is in some subspecialty.

Kapish? Hope my simple english doesn't confuse you.

And btw your welcome, don't mention.

I have followed many stories on NL, been spellbound by many, but never commented on one so soon after starting to read it. the intricate weaving of past, present and the possible future gives it an edge of suspense and thrill like no other. Nice piece and I close with the cliché "more grease to your elbow".

Microsoft don't just get it do dey? Windows RT is totally useless and unnecessary. Apple has Mac OS for Macs and iOs for everything else, Google is towing the line of one to rule them all : Android and rather than microsoft streamlining their efforts they are busy on a wild goose chase. Windows Phone and Windows RT should basically be made into one experience with great syncing with Windows 8 functionality, people would be more wowed by that.

ASUU members do not know the police is actually protecting them by not letting them outside their schools. All the artisans, photocopying vendors, food sellers, transport providers e.t.c around the school whose means of livelihood have been all but stopped by this strike and even the students themselves around the area go catch them beat better beat ehn, no be person go tell dem.

LiteratureRe: Dotted Lines ... by jjagz: 9:22am On Oct 31, 2013
Xtar. Been a silent reader since. But after you replied someone I just kept my onions to myself, the response was scary. Anyway. To the story.

Nice concept. Nice idea. Nice message. Good beginning. However, towards the middle of the story, I just think you didn't do it when it came to proper character differentiation. A simple header before jumping to Imaobong or Eniola would have done magic. At this point, though am at the end I can't seem to get the exact circumstances that lead to their repentance because everything is painfully clutered up.

I believe proper editing and reorganisation of the story would do it a great deal.

There, I said it. *closing eyes waiting for bashing*
PhonesRe: BBM On Android And Iphone: My Questions by jjagz: 4:37pm On Oct 28, 2013
OP, I disagree, with your BBM for all, so data plan for all. I wrote something about it on another thread. Amma search and bring it here.

All data used in legacy BB phones pass
through blackberry's data centers which
compress the data heavily so that the
bandwidth eventually used is so small
that networks can afford to give out
bogus data plans without stressing their
capacity.
For the Android and iOS however, the
data is direct from server to phone. So
special data compression. So no
cheaper data plans.
It works like this. On a BB if you point
your browser to the url nairaland.com,
the phone sends a request to
blackberry's servers, which request the
page from oga Seun's servers
compresses it and sends it to the
phone. On Android or iOS, the phone
requests the page from Seun's servers
directly, no compression involved.
That's why Opera Mini and UCWeb are
popular with those platforms. They offer
that kind of compression in a way.
BBM messages still pass through BB
servers, which is why as Android users
will notice, the data used by BBM
wouldn't be so much.
OP, hope you get it now?

Whatsapp matter na different case. Just yesterday somebody took my number from one useless group chat. BBM offers privacy and beautiful functionality. For free. Whatsapp , infact, let's not go there.

PhonesHow To Save Blackberry by jjagz(op): 10:56am On Oct 15, 2013
Section 2 'The similarities to that
other technological pioneer' (The
critical view of BlackBerry now)
It's spooky how the BlackBerry situation
resembles the Nokia situation. Let me
demonstrate.
-
September 2010 - Stephen Elop
announced as CEO of Nokia.
January 2012 - Thorsten Heins
announced as CEO of BlackBerry.
-
February 2011 - announcement that
Nokia will shift to WP.
2013 - Blackberry is focusing on BBOS 10
and BBOS 7 in different markets
-
2011-2012 - About 20,000 Nokia
employees get the boot
2011-2013 - About 7,000 BlackBerry
employees get the boot
-
May 2013 - Announcement they're being
bought by Microsoft
September 2013 - Announcement
Fairfax made an offer to buy
-
2013 - Bonus controversy, Stephen gets
18 million after the acquisition by
Microsoft (negotiated on the same day
the sale went down)
2013 - Departure controversy, Thorsten
stands to receive 55 million after being
acquired (negotiated by Prem Watsa,
chairman of Fairfax)
Are we seeing a new form of business
takeover strategies? Get someone in
there that botches things up so a
takeover is possible and be handsomely
rewarded? Perhaps. But as much as I
would like to indulge the conspiracy
theorists, what's more likely, is the fact
that neither Heins nor Elop were CEO
material and gave their companies
(unwillingly?) the push it needed to fall
off the cliff. Being snatched up by the
vultures circling.
Their bonus after acquisition is merely
part of the vulture strategy to secure
takeover support on the board and
possibly to secure public support by the
CEO for the takeover.

TravelRe: A Nairalanders Trip To Obudu Cattle Ranch by jjagz: 7:28am On Oct 15, 2013
bee-y:
I beg to disagree with that. Good projects but not well thought out. Especially that Ranch, it was sited at Obanliku Local Govt., I would have expect the people of that LG to insist on the appropriate naming, how many people of both Obudu n Obanliku can afford even the gate fare? I served in Boki East n can tell u dt that axis electicity is non existence, there is no standard school of any category, most of the locals have never been to Calarba the state capital in their life time and may never go their, I visited the Ranch it was such a beautiful project but meant for only the rich, yes I've got to appreciate good thing but the journey from Calarba will take an average of 8hrs if u don't want to have road crash. Let me just stop here because most Crossriverians as they liked to be called need to start holding their Governors accountable.
People and talking, just read through this thread. Obudu to Calabar is about 4 hours now. The ranch is not only for the rich please! And our Governors have all been wonderful in their own rights. And this naming ish you are talking about, the ranch was established in the Nineteen Fifties, Obanliku was created out of Obudu in less than or about 20 years ago. You don't just change the name like that, it is a marketing disaster. And a certain someone was saying change the name to Green Hills Resort, let me see you call a place that isn't green in the dry season a Green Hill.

So far as this Biafra is the landlocked South-East only, no problem at all. Carry go! At least Nigeria would lose a lot less criminals leaving us with a managable number. Your hustling would be missed sha. Then at least you people can have all the states you want.

All wishful thinking though, the Igbo leaders wouldn't allow the shït to see the light of the day. And <b>oscof</b> South-South go wash hand totally abandon Biafra.
