post=39458472:That's why you are a comedian. Everything about you is ludicrous & comical |
Great Game... |
10 men Stoke beat full-blooded A+ team Chelsea Blue black. Chelsea has become an extension of Nigeria super eagle. It's time for MaurInho to bench his first team and rely on his second team. |
You can also UK used Sony Xperia at that budget. |
ikbnice:How does these points translate to a successful relationship/marriage? You make it sounds like successful marriage has a manual. Que sera, sera (whatever will be, will be), walking by your points or points. What works like magic is when two agrees to look beyond their differences and hold on to their believe in each other. |
I wont be surprised if these thatch houses are the upgraded versions found in Igbo nation in Nigeria. You'll find these ones in USA fitted with Air conditioners and water heaters. |
Who cares about federal character? Federal character breeds mediocre, stifles growth and development. It's not working. When will Nigerians learn to do away with policies that are not working and try new things? |
Nairaland has completely lost it flavours. Imagine the kind of thread moderators move to front page nowadays. SMH - Nairaland, a forum fits for juvenile |
Quite fascinating facts |
Lilimax:Bone story jare. You mean all the broken marriages and homes nowadays are devoid of God? Or those marriages were not conducted in Churches? Marriage is doing the society biddings whether you will be happy or not. |
Marriage is a scam. Why waste your resources? |
I dont see any fat yansh, I see a FAT girl |
mmse:Just to be heard, I am dead sure Enyeama was already bellicose before he was sent out by the security. |
hardbody:We seem too emotional about the entire situation. Just to be heard, I am dead sure Enyeama was already bellicose before he was sent out by the security. I was not in any way surprised at their 0-2 lost to Congo. Even with Enyeama's Captaincy, TeamNigeria was nothing to write home about in the committee of football sport. Don't you agree with me, it is high time we overhauled the team? Let's put sentiment aside and be objective. 1 or 2 privileged Nigerians cannot make us look like we are poverty of talents in over 170million people in Nigeria. It's this same sentiment we share in politics - we are known to be recycling ego-maniac and failures year in year out with nothing to show for. We cannot move forward with this mentality. We need CHANGE boss. Long live Nigeria Long live the world |
hardbody:I like the fact you mentioned organised office. I can tell you Enyeama is a total disappointment and failure in an organised workplace. The HR determines who deserves promotion through performance appraisal. This appraisal doesn't only appraised your service years, but how well you have impacted on your team and the company as a leader. Your loyalty, your commitment, etc. Enyeama was given a dateline to return to camp, but he overstayed. HR will query him of course, his response will determine their next line of action. Enyeama goofed and deserved sanction. He had no iota of respect by walking away from his coach. I expected him to manage the situation well as a professional. But he allowed his ego to get a better of him. That being said, the sooner we realise we are all replaceable, the better. There are better talents out there |
Nigerians and their 'na only me' attitude. Enyeama's action reeked of pride. If he had the national interest at heart, he should have managed the situation well. He should have accepted his coach's decision and help Musa (as the new captain) build the team as one of the most experienced players. Why do we have coaches? Their decisions are final in a club (while the fans want results). He was given captaincy because the coach then saw something in him. Oliseh also saw something in Musa and thought him more deserving of captainship. Leadership is not about doing the popular thing, but doing the right thing. Methinks, Enyeama left his house with his mind made up that, "If the coach queried me on my lateness to camp, I would walk away, afterall, Nigeria cannot do without me". Any man is replaceable. If you can't respect the terms of a group, then you are not worthy to be there. Enyeama saw himself too big to be led by Musa (that's how I see it). Nigerians should learn to leave their 'larger than life attitude' within the four walls of their family. Outside your family, there are over millions and one Nigerians that can replace you. Are we saying, with over 170Million Nigerians, we only have Enyeama to the rescue? I am sad if this tenable. Let stop heating up the issue. The polity has already been polarised between Oliseh and Enyeama. My humble commentary Long live Nigeria! Long live the world!! |
10. The Violent Nomad Mindset Finally, Emerson concludes his book by noting that adapting a “Violent Nomad” mindset, which includes the ability to recognize and protect against a wide array of threats, is one of the number one things you can do to ensure survival in an emergency situation. “Beyond any one particular skill, it is the Violent Nomad Mindset, defined by a spirit of improvisation and alertness to threats of all kinds, that distinguishes victims from survivors,” Emerson noted.
|
9. Identify Emergency Ballistic Shields Another essential survival skill, Emerson said it’s important to be able to identify objects that can stop or slow bullets, and thus keep you safe. In 100 Deadly Skills he identifies dense wood, concrete, steel and granite as materials that can slow or stop bullets. Additionally, he points out that a granite-top table, the engine side of a car or a concrete planter would make for good bullet protection, but a trash can, a sofa, dry wall or the trunk side of a car would not. “Know the difference between cover and concealment,” Emerson wrote. “Cover stops bullets, concealment doesn’t.”
|
8. Get Really Good at Simple Skills The second of the two most important skills he learned during his time as a Navy Seal, Emerson said simplicity is essential for survival. “Being ‘advanced’ is all about doing the simple really ... good,” he explained. “Keep it simple, be good at simple. If you overcomplicate your preparedness or response then odds are it won’t work. Be good at simple and you'll end up far more advanced than your adversary.”
|
7. Train: The Violent Nomad Workout' One step you can take to implement such training into your daily routine is with the “Violent Nomad Workout.” As outlined in 100 Deadly Skills, the training regimen includes: one minute of hanging heavy bag strikes, a half-mile sprint, one minute of grounded heavy bag strikes, a second half-mile sprint, a one-minute heavy bag bear hug carry, and a third and final half-mile sprint. This workout, Emerson notes, simulates fighting conditions and helps to reinforce a “run, fight, run” philosophy by building endurance for hand-to-hand combat.
|
6. Train How You Fight, Fight How You Train This is one of two of the most important skills Emerson said he learned during his time serving as a Navy SEAL. “You have to do more than just read this article,” he explained. “You have to implement thoughts and skills of survival into your daily routine, make it a habit so that when crisis strikes you act out what you have already put in place. Ultimately decreasing exposure to the threat and increasing survivability.”
|
5. Adopt an Offensive Mindset When asked about what people should really know about survival in modern times, Emerson said transitioning from a defensive to a more offensive mindset is absolutely essential. “If you are caught off guard or your life is threatened, a violent offensive response is the only answer these days,” he said. “Consider active shooter/terrorist scenarios, more times than not, the shooter kills himself. The shooter is willing to die and when this is the case, you have to be prepared to kill the shooter before he kills you or others around you.”
|
4. Reconsider What ‘Survival’ Means As mentioned earlier, Emerson said it’s important to think about the skills you’ll need to survive current, more likely threats, rather than skills like building a fire or fishing with a shoelace. “Our natural born instincts are not good enough, we have to arm ourselves with a higher level of education beyond setting snares with fishing line,” he explained. “Survival skills for today include cyber threat awareness, active shooter response, civil unrest and violent action against terrorists.”
|
3. Evasion “Escape and evasion skills are more important now than ever,” Emerson said. “Surviving a crisis is paramount. Simply put, do whatever it takes to live, not die. If you are out-gunned or taking severe blows to the head, then a temporary surrender might be necessary. The last thing you want is to get knocked out and have zero control over the outcome.” If for some reason you are captured and restrained, Emerson said, it’s important to “get big,” which will create a slack in rope, chains, tape and zip ties. “As mentioned, stashing razor blades and handcuff keys in your waistline, belts and shoes will free you of most restraints,” he added. “And always escape sooner rather than later — the longer detained the more security precautions the bad guys will put in place.”
|
2. Signature Reduction Emerson said self-defense should go far beyond the ability to fight an attacker. “Self-defense has expanded beyond gouging out bad guy’s eyes with your thumbs. It should be more holistic to include signature reduction — blending into environments and not standing out,” he explained. “This also applies to your social media and online presence as well. The more you ‘tell’ without talking makes it easier to target you." He also recommended that a self-defense strategy includes the ability to escape. "A razor blade and handcuff key are easily concealed and can free you of most restraints,” Emerson said. In his book, he suggests carrying both items in your waistband at all times.
|
1. Run, Hide, Fight “This is one of the skills in 100 Deadly Skills,” Emerson explained. “A response check-off list of actions to take if caught in the cross fire. If you can run — run away from the threat in a zig-zag pattern. If you can't run, then hide. Hide behind objects that stop bullets. If you find yourself in a place where running or hiding isn't possible — like a train in France —fight and fight as a team if others are around.”

I thought I should share this info. You never can tell when it comes handy: For most, the word survival tends to conjure up thoughts of kindling spark fire, build shelter from scratch or figuring out how to source clean water. No doubt, these types of skills are certainly good to have, but Clint Emerson a retired Navy SEAL feels they’re are others that are far more necessary to Eluding Pursuers, Evading Capture, and Surviving Any Dangerous Situation. “Those are great skills, but they do not match the skills necessary to survive current threats,” he said. Exactly what skills do you need then? Emerson feels our concerns should be focused more on threats like hackers and lone wolf terrorists. “Hacking issues leading to identity theft are concerning and will certainly cause a headache or two, but lone wolf attacks are deadly — and everyone, at a minimum, should mentally prepare themselves for such evil when out on the town, sitting in restaurants, transiting via public transportation and so on,” he said. Here are the skills he said you absolutely need to know. http://www.msn.com/en-us/health/wellness/10-need-to-know-survival-skills-from-a-former-navy-seal/ss-AAfaxUI?ocid=onepro#image=2

Martins301:It's not rigidity. It's called Discipline. Enyeama as a 'captain' should have known better. A deadline was given, he should have respected that and led by example. His years of service does not translate to impunity. Leaders are expected to do the right things not the popular things. A simple courtesy could earned favourable consideration |
kel4soft:Who give a hoot about Mikel? Even in his Chelsea club, he's been resigned to 'bench-warming'. His contribution to success is near-zero. He's finished in football. It's high time he tried Nigerian music. I bet you, he will attend pseudo success through his wide connections not talent |
I am sure this questionable press release is not from the Nigerian Army. If it's from the Army, then Nigerian Army has been winning Boko Haram war by media and deceiving Nigerians since inception. Even my neighbor's new born baby would know the picture presented can never be a Boko Haram sponsor, with dirty notes that can never buy AK-47 Rifle, let alone pay bomb makers. I am embarrassingly disappointed |
Mikel is the only 'minus 1' of #TeamNigeria. I just hope Oliseh employs 'bench-warming' tactic if he wants result |
egift:The bold caught my incredible attention. Looks like typical sensational journalism. Journalists indeed have the power to make you and to also mar you. They are liken to lawyers who determine your innocence at their best and guilt at their worst |
