Business › Re: Its Another Scam Report From Google Trader Nigeria. by Joel3(m): 2:05pm On Aug 26, 2013
one need to buy something in a location from it locally base. outside f been scam what if you got problem with the products? it will be difficult to retrieve the money or replacement of the items. internet is only a means to connect you to the seller it then left for you to meet in person and buy from a base office not a roadside most especially from a distance place. lessons learnt. even my friend tried to buy bb online. they both concluded on price is now to exchange the seller had to send first to it relative in the buyers state which is my friend. but when my friend say the phone physically he has a change of heart as the phone doesn't worth it very old and rough. this are some of the reasons.

these are one of the reasons i do not recommend buy electronic over the internet. only buy things physically and with receipts. before i bought my mini laptop. i went all over the internet. including google trader, even here in nairaland. i could not deal because i am not into paying into a bank account or to use a transport service. which i find funny. although the might be cheap and attracting but it doesn't worth it. until i made up my mind to the close buy shops where the sell laptops in my location. i finally find a good and fast mini with high configuration even cheaper as i could thought. after i left there something bad happen i notice some keys not working. i had to g back and the seller has no choice than to use his money to buy a new set of laptop key board and replace it. so what i am saying is

Politics › 'he's A Lost Soul': Mystery Of Man Who Fell To Earth From Plane by Joel3(op): 10:02pm On Aug 25, 2013
early on a sunny Sunday morning in September when a man from Africa literally fell from the sky and landed with a loud thud onto the sidewalk of Portman Avenue, half a block from a convenience store, an upscale lingerie boutique, and a shop selling Chinese herbal remedies. In the hours after the crumpled body was found, as early risers were getting up to walk their dogs, get the papers, or go to church, police thought the man was a murder victim. But it was soon determined that he had been a stowaway who fell from a passenger plane when it lowered its landing gear directly above Portman Avenue. "It was scary, there was a body on the street, and nobody knew at first that he had fallen from a plane," neighbour Stephanie Prudhomme said. "There were police everywhere." The identity of the man remains a mystery three months later. He carried no identification, but police believe he may have been from Angola. They are asking the public to help identify the man, whose death has traumatised the neighbourhood. Some heard the noise on impact; others were alarmed when they opened their doors and saw a crumpled badly disfigured body lying on the street. Some didn't know anything was amiss until the police and an ambulance arrived, followed by homicide detectives. Police came to believe the man stowed away on a passenger jet bound from the African nation of Angola to London, only to die en route and then fall when the landing gear opened — an occurrence that is rare but not unheard of. "There is great sadness," said Catherine Lambert, who lives a few doors down from the spot where the man landed. "To think that the end of the line for him is a suburban street, miles away from his world." The event shattered the neighbourhood's sense of being immune from the world's troubles, she said, a feeling compounded by the inability of police to identify the man. "I felt, what was he running away from? What made him think he could survive? And how will his family ever know? He's a lost soul now; his father and mother are probably waiting for him to make contact," said Lambert, 41. Frustrated police have released a composite electronic image of what they believe the man's face looked like before his fall, as well as a photo of a tattoo on his left arm, in hopes that he may be identified. Based on circumstantial evidence, including some currency found in his jeans pocket, they believe he may have been from Angola, but discussions with Angolan authorities have not provided useful clues. In the days after the macabre discovery, some residents moved by the man's death placed flowers at the spot where his body landed. Unofficial representatives of London's Angolan community trekked to Mortlake to pay their respects to the man, even though no one knew who he was. They prayed and also left flowers — but the bouquet was quickly removed by residents after the delegation departed, for fears that it would become an unwanted, permanent shrine to the unknown passenger. Some are still unwilling to discuss the falling man. "Is this about the man from the sky?" asked one woman when approached by a reporter as she parked her car on Portman Avenue. "I don't want to talk about it. That was my house." Aviation safety specialist Chris Yates said poor perimeter security at a number of airports in Africa — including the main Angola airport at Luanda — and in other parts of the world has made it easier for people to stow away on planes. But it's dangerous, and often fatal, not least because areas such as the cargo hold or the wheel base, where stowaways often climb into, aren't necessarily pressurized. Yates said the man who crashed to the pavement in Mortlake had probably lost consciousness and died within the first hour of his flight. "When you start moving beyond 10,000 feet, oxygen starvation becomes a reality," he said. "As you climb up to altitude, the issue becomes cold as well, the temperature drops to minus 40 or minus 50 degrees centigrade, so survival rates drop." The footpath has been cleaned and the flowers are long gone, but residents and local workers are still talking about the man, said Jay Sivapalan, 29, an employee at the Variety Box convenience store near where the body landed. "It was just a strange thing," he said.

Security Stowaways may risk being imprisoned, since it is illegal in most jurisdictions to embark on aircraft, boats or trains as stowaways. Airports, sea ports and train stations are typically marked as "No trespassing" or " Private property " zones to anyone but customers and employees. Seaports, train stations, and airports often attempt further security by designating restricted areas with signs saying "Authorized Personnel Only". Since the September 11 attacks, it has become more difficult to be a stowaway on board transportation arriving to or departing from the United States. Airport security has dramatically increased, and among the new security measures is watching over the fences from which stowaways usually gain entrance to an airport's runway. ↑Jump back a section Rail transportation ↑Jump back a section Sea travel The Convention on Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic, 1965, as amended, (The FAL Convention), define stowaway as "A person who is secreted on a ship, or in cargo which is subsequently loaded on the ship, without the consent of the shipowner or the Master or any other responsible person and who is detected on board the ship after it has departed from a port, or in the cargo while unloading it in the port of arrival, and is reported as a stowaway by the master to the appropriate authorities". Unnoticed by the Master, the crew, port and customs authorities, stowaways may gain access to the ship with or without the assistance of port personnel. Once on board the ship stowaways hide in empty containers, cargo holds, tanks, tunnels, behind false panels, stores, accommodation area, engine rooms, void spaces, cranes, chain lockers. The presence of stowaways on board ships may bring serious consequences for ships and, by extension, to the shipping industry as a whole; the ship could be delayed in port; the repatriation of stowaways can be a very complex and costly procedure involving masters, shipowners, port authorities and agents; and the life of stowaways could be endangered as they may spent several days hidden, with the risk of suffocation and without any water/provisions.

A stowaway is a person who secretly boards a vehicle, such as an aircraft , bus, ship, cargo truck or train , to travel without paying and without being detected. Air travel Poor perimeter security at a number of airports in Africa and in other parts of the world can make it easier for people to stow away on planes. [1] Stowaways in aircraft wheel wells face numerous health risks, many of which are fatal: being mangled when undercarriage retracts, tinnitus, deafness , hypothermia , hypoxia , frostbite, acidosis and finally falling when the doors of the compartment reopen. [2] The landing gear compartment is not equipped with heating, pressure or oxygen, which are vital for survival at a high altitude. [2] According to experts, at 18,000 feet (5,500 m), hypoxia causes lightheadedness, weakness, vision impairment and tremors. By 22,000 feet (6,700 m) the oxygen level of the blood drops and the person will struggle to stay conscious. [2] Above 33,000 feet (10,000 m) their lungs would need artificial pressure to operate normally. [2] The temperature could drop as low as −63 °C (−81 °F) which causes severe hypothermia. [2] Those stowaways who managed to not be crushed by the retracting undercarriage or killed by the deadly conditions would most likely be unconscious when the compartment door re-opens during the approach and fall down several thousand feet to their deaths. [2] David Learmount, an aviation expert of Flight International, told BBC about a lot of ignorance in this area. He suggested that no one would be willing to risk such journey, having full understanding of this kind of ordeal. [2] Stowaways who survived usually traveled relatively short distances or at a low altitude. [2] One case is known of a person who survived an altitude of about 39,000 feet (12,000 m); the youngest known survivor was aged nine. [2] Almost all aircraft stowaways are male. [2] From 1947 until September 2012, there were 96 known stowaway attempts worldwide in wheel wells of 85 separate flights, which resulted in 73 deaths with only 23 survivors. [2]

in some couple of time i had a big bang like blow in my chest when drinking water. it happen as a result of clash between air gas and water on the chest. is like drinking the water and bech at the same time. the water has already close all the space in the throat and has a speed of coming down. and the air has a higher speed of going up to comes out from the mouth mostly after eating. this clashes at the tied corners of the heart with a big bang. very and highly painful when this happens, infact it stop breathing for a while as the heart feels stretch above it limit.
