EducationRe: How To Spot A Womanizing Lecturer by Joe88(m): 11:52am On Feb 20, 2015
'the syndrome of womanizing runs in the veins of about 80% of Nigerian lecturers'

How did you arrive at the above? or how did you conduct your research? please enlighten me. You don't just sit within the confines of your room and spit rubbish. Your points are very naive and does not reflect intellectualism. If your experience in the polytechnic was the inspiration for this, how then do you generalize? Have you been to a university before? Anyways I do not dispute the nefarious activities of some lecturers but don't rubbish their hard work with your 80percent blanket tag. There are those that are committed and diligent and have brought respect to our nation and may constitute well above your 20percent.

PoliticsRe: Jonathan’s Biggest Economic Mistakes — Pat Utomi by Joe88(m): 12:30pm On Feb 02, 2015
omenka:
I keep asking myself how we ended up with a guy like Jonathan. Intellectually, the guy is just too damn handicapped. He seems to be absolutely ignorant of the least requirements of leadership, let alone, possess same. Then what baffles me even more is how anyone with a brain of a human could support a guy like this to preside over the affairs of a state.

The quote above summarises all there is to the person Jonathan.
You have said it all!
PoliticsRe: Jonathan’s Biggest Economic Mistakes — Pat Utomi by Joe88(m): 12:06pm On Feb 02, 2015
Splashme:
[size=13pt]1) Pat Utomi was handed the popular Volkswagen Nigeria and he run it aground

2) Same Pat Utomi managed Platinum bank. The bank was weak and forced to merge with Habib to become Bank PHB. Even the Bank PHB, where is it now? We are now hearing of Keystone bank owned by new owners because Patitos gang could not manage it properly.

3) My point is, 'talk is cheap'. Nigerians love to criticise alot especially while outside of government. Pat himself could not manage very minute aspects of the economy to profitability. If Okonjo, Reuben Abati etc where not in govt there would probably be criticising too[/size]
Examine the quality of the message and leave the messenger alone! This is a typical Nigerian syndrome I am beginning to get fed up with.

PoliticsRe: World Opinion Leaders Verdict On GEJ - Everyone Agrees He's Clueless by Joe88(m): 2:49pm On Jan 29, 2015
It is a known fact that our President is clueless, what baffles me is how some people deliberately want to remain blind to the damaging effects of this cluelessness he annoyingly exhibits. In sane climes he should have been shown the way out of Aso Rock. The first priority of any government is to secure lives. If lives are not adequately secured, who will ride the trains and drive on the roads or expend electricity?. Most of us talk with water in our mouths because the insurgents seem far away. According to Festus Keyamu "At this critical point in Nigeria, Buhari should be sought after and begged to lead the country".

Zoharariel:
So we should fold our hands and look because we are too scared to die! What saddens me is the way we accept and stare at corruption and all the excesses of the government helplessly. I think there is still so much ignorance in the land and ignorance blindfolds people from the truth or is it really ignorance?, even Henry Ford acknowledged this "It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning'. You can make a suggestion, you could call it Reform



Be a lil' more patient, my friend, we're almost there. When it's time, no 1 will tell us. It's gradually gathering momentum.

Our Crude Oil is still a lil' over $60 Per Barrel, by the time it dwindles to $10 Per Barrel, and life gets really tougher.

Then Boyz are mobilized, boys from every area, boys who are already frustrated without jobs or any means of livelihood. Factions are created, alliances are forged.

Soon enough, they generate enough heat, then hell breaks loose. The first victims are far off. Then the battle drums are beaten in your county, then in your district and ultimately in your neighborhood.

The Police Stations are invaded & burnt one after the other, followed by the Army Barracks, and then Politicians, including the Rich become primary targets, Banks are broken & looted all over.

Long before the battle reaches your village, you soon realize that you cannot access the nearest town, you cannot even get an MTN or Etisalat scratch cards to buy internet bundles. So you are cut off from the social media.

Few days later, the small embers generate some heat. 300 dead turn to 600, then 800. Before long, thousands are dead. Massive rapes, wanton destruction of property; the whole land is lit.

The C.I.A who have been covertly fanning the embers of disintegration & destabilization, start air dropping massive weapons just like they're doing now in Syria. AK 47s, RPGs, Hand Grenades, other Countries like France & UK take cues.

Before you know it, you escape death by a whisker, but with a deep cut on your right shoulder. No dispensary is open anywhere. No hospital either. The fight for revolution turns into a fight for your own life.

The Politicians who egged you on are nowhere to be seen, or heard. They are watching events unfold in the safety of Hilton Hotel in Ghana or Ethiopia.

Humanitarian organizations hurriedly put up refugee camps. Maybe in a Catholic Church compound. Fighting for the few tents becomes the order of the day. A few rations reach your parched throat three days later. The gush on your right shoulder in gangrenous.

The overworked doctor is busy with a dying child next to your bed in a stinking, wet, humid tent hospital. There is wailing outside. You pray for death, but it takes its sweet time.

Anderson Cooper from CNN and his trademark black t-shirt have made it to your camp. The wide view camera catches you gnashing your teeth with high fever and bloody bandages over your right shoulder. Your picture is seen worldwide, thanks to globalised, 24-hour media.

[Cramjones] meets with [FireFire] and [Sincere9gerian] and [Billyonaire] in the camp. They converse in low tones in Yoruba, Hausa & Igbo wondering where the rain started beating them. They cannot remember when they last took a bath. They share a lone cigarette bootlegged into the camp by [Ikengawo & Obinoscopy].

In the meantime, in the Hilton Hotel, Addis Ababa, the political leaders hammer a truce negotiated by the Prime Minister of Ethiopia, and the AU. They share out government positions.

But you cannot celebrate the truce. For you see, three days before it happens, you, together with 43 others, are buried in a mass unmarked grave 12 miles outside the refugee camp.

None of your relatives will ever learn of your fate. Your amputated right arm is food for the vultures and hyenas in the refugee camp dump site.

War is real. It kills real people; it leaves real women widowed, real children orphans, real men maimed.

So my friend, [booz], are you prepared?

Thanks a lot. You are very observant. I wish I can touch it one more time but it has been signed already. However, no art has the potential of being perfect, the artist can only strive towards perfection if he likes and since he is not God he can never achieve perfection but mastery. I appreciate your observation.
to further buttress that, the sole essence of a portrait is not only to capture resemblance through perfection but also to capture the mood and personality of the subject. The picture below might explain better.

Great painting. shocked

Some issues though:

- her right lower eyelid looks weird, the outer part (to the right side) is too pushed up.

- on her left eye, the top left side seems a little bulged.

Other than that, it's great.

That is a portrait. Would you call Leonardo's 'Monalisa' a photoshoped picture or would you refer to his 'David' as engineered? Even photoshoped images can still be regarded as art because it involves creativity. However, that portrait of destiny is not Photoshoped

In 2010, on the last day of the art-workshop in Delta state I promised her a portrait. She had been our model all through and I had always dreamt of capturing this beauty in Pastel. We lost contact ever since but her portrait which I painstakingly rendered with 'pastel on board' has remained with me. All efforts to reach her had met a wall. As I wake up each day, I always wish I could see her to fulfill my promise. Please admire this beauty and maybe it could reduce the burden.

I believe you understand my point but deliberately want to defer. The picture you posted is not traditional African/Yoruba Architecture, that could pass for "Vernacular architecture". Below is a picture of a traditional Yoruba architecture (Old Owu Palace) and the next (Natural History Museum at Obafemi Awolowo University) is an adaptation of the former mixed with a degree of 'Sophistication' and contemporary outlook.
