People who know nothing about the mortgage system will commend this rubbish he is trying to implement...

Read https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/biweekly-mortgage-payments-258522

Typical mortgage is either 15/30 years, the interest you pay on mortgages are almost equal to the value of the house so you almost pay double.... My advice, save your money and buy houses like fish.

Don't pity them. They have a working system. There is health insurance for them.

How many have health insurance? How many can afford 500 per month for health insurance for just one person? Even with insurance, premium is high... Someone just paid $5k with insurance.... If na Canada or UK, ehen

what do you take of your cousin sister showing advances and professing deep love and care?

It started when we were young, about 15 years ago. I had finished my SSCE when we had a get together at the remembrance of my grandfather, all the grandchildren showed up, and it was the first time we had met(grown up).

I was almost 2 years older, we got talking and chatting and trying to know each other. While at it, I was in charge telling her about myself, the school I attended and all. All I could observe is staring and gazing straight into my eye balls.

After the remembrance, I got to understand her looks translated into feelings where she had to ask her mum can one marry her cousin? To me i only can feel she was just a kid being childish about it. Since then we kept our cool and we're just the normal cousin brother and sister.


Fast forward till now, I'm Married while she's married too. We've lost contacts for years cos of struggles and all and we only got back online talking lately, we got talking about life and delved into relationships. It was then she told me what she had for me years back. Her husband is a weekend husband coz of the nature of his work, but she wants some sort of very close friendship. It really funny and confusing what string she's trying to pull


Matured minds please advise

Isn't your cousin's sister your cousin?

Even that online scammer called freeze is scamming people via donations for his online church.

Wait! Freeze collects money for his church

FolsTonyby:
I have been working in this company since late 2014. Initially we were three in the department, later the head of department was sacked, remaining two of us and the company didn't bring any replacement for the head.

Early last year my other colleague got another job and left too leaving only me as the sole staff in the department (IT department). Since then I've been the only person running the department, mind you the company is opening more branches and expanding.

Around December last year when the workload was too much I requested for another hands and the company promised to get me ASAP and even posted the job advert on the dailies but they didn't do any recruitment (upon the fact that many people applied).

Now I got a better job in a multinational and I dropped my resignation letter giving them a month notice but the company refused to accept my letter saying I cannot leave as there is nobody to take over from me. They have recruited people now but the people gave them a month before they can resume and I cannot wait because if I do I will lose my new place, all the information of the company IT wise is in my palm as the company run solely on IT for daily transactions.

Please I need professional advice on this because I am supposed to resume at my new place this coming April.

Any form of advice will do. Help a brother!

A resignation letter is not a request that needs to be accepted, move on. Congratulations! When they are serious, they will hire someone ASAP

Quick question, have they fixed the roads on the streets of Lagos? This money can be spent else where that's of more importance.

baby124:
Your friend is bisexual. His wife may also be bisexual. Or are you the guy? How come you are so sure what goes on in a couples bedroom? Have you been a beneficiary of free pussy from his wife too? Lol. Sorry o, this your defense is watery.

If I was the one, you will know... My insults would be on point.... To each his own; you can sit in front of your computer and be shallow or accept some people are weird, different, probably crazy, lost, etc....

I should spend less time replying you and more time preaching the Word to the culprit... I'm off, lemme go and save a soul

baby124:
Yea. You obviously don’t know him well enough. What is he doing with another man when having sex with his wife. It cannot he explained away.

Instead of you accusing me of not knowing a friend, why not open your shallow mind from assuming because a man is willing to have a party with a man and his wife, he is gay.... How do you know a guy doesn't like watching another guy smash his wife? My advice is that you should direct your insult in the right direction; because me sef will insult him but I won't jump to conclusions. I'm not defending him but I am just saying he isn't gay or bi. He is just **********************

baby124:
He’s bisexual to ask for male or female. No straight sane man will Bleep while looking at another man’s erect penis. Lol.

I know him personally, so I know he isn't.... It's complicated why he asked, you need to know his full story to understand

Amarabae:
"male or female "
The husband must be a bisexual.

A straight man can never be looking for a man to join in a 3some.

What an embarrassment to that woman

He is very straight......

She should have blurred his face

Hello Everyone,
I am a fresh graduate from a reputable Federal Polytechnic in Nigeria, I graduated in 2017 and I am supposed to go for youth service this year (2018 Batch A Corps) which will commence soon. But I have an issue bothering me which I need a good advice on.

Last year 2017 my sister who is in USA for close to 12 years wanted me to come and hustle abroad but it's not easy for youth to go there but through schooling, so she helped me to find a good public University to do Masters, I have done the necessary processing and I have been offered an admission for the Fall Semester starting August 2018, my Visa has also been granted.

The issue on ground now is that I want to have the NYSC certificate, probably if I can runs it as a ghost Corper and get the certificate on my behalf or if an exemption can be possible.

Please I need your sincere advice. Thanks.

You have gotten Visa 5 months before resumption? How is that possible?

DONSMITH123:
The Federal Government on Thursday said the African Development Bank has approved a $300m loan to contribute to job creation, food security and nutrition, rural income generation and improved livelihood for youths in both urban and rural areas in the country.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha said this in Abuja at a round-table on tackling youth unemployment in Nigeria.

The event was organised by the Bureau of Public Service reform in collaboration with the Department for International Development.

The SGF at the event also constituted an Inter-ministerial task team to address the youth unemployment challenges in the country.

He said members of the team would be drawn from the Office of the Head of Service, ministry of labour, ministry of finance, Central Bank of Nigeria, Nigerian Economic Summit Group and the National Directorate of Employment.

The SGF said the Federal Government was committed to addressing the rising youth unemployment in the country through innovative ways.

For instance, he said the government through the bank of Industry had launched a N10bn Youth Entrepreneurship Support program to empower youth with loans to start business.

The program, he noted, is aimed at equipping young aspiring entrepreneurs with the right skills and knowledge to be self employed by starting and managing their own businesses.

He said, “The Federal Government has accorded agriculture priority in order to create job opportunities for the youth.

“We owe the youth in Nigeria today and tomorrow to work with determination and to do everything possible to win this battle.

“And am confident that with the commitment and strong resolve, we will have the results we are striving in the not too distant future.”

He said that the government is addressing the unemployment challenges through the implementation of the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan.

He said through the plan, the government has identified various sectors that could be used to create jobs for the people.

The Acting Director-General, BPSR, Mr Dave Arabi said agency had developed a policy note on how to effectively address the issue of unemployment in Nigeria.

He said the roundtable would provide a veritable platform for all stakeholders to come up with the needed solutions to addressing the unemployment situation.

Meaning extra gbese we have to pay back

Obi1kenobi:
It's a waste of time arguing with people who are being deliberately obtuse. Are you really this ignorant, or do you deliberately ignore facts to suit your argument? Marijuana's medicinal benefits are so widely known. Simply googling the search phrase "Marijuana benefits" should give you thousands of articles and research from professionals about it. If you're not going to use a tool so easily at your disposal, why the fucckk do you keep wasting my time here?

And what the hell is the difference between inhaling a burnt plant and smoking it in pipes? The invention of the pipe? Is it the pipe that makes the smoking bad, or the substance being smoked that makes it bad? What kind of twisted logic is that?
Where did I say smoking was referenced in the Bible? I said smoking was well popular in Biblical times, yet was never referenced in the Bible. Big difference. Are you quoting me or adding your own words to skew my claims and build your strawman argument?

Tobacco has very few benefits, but there ARE benefits. I wasn't saying these benefits make it worthwhile to smoke. Nobody smokes tobacco for medicinal purposes. I made the outlandish statement in response to your outlandish attempts to defend alcohol as being of benefit to the body because it contains tiny carb quantities.

All these deviates from the central theme: what makes smoking a sin? All I've heard is wildly inconsistent claims about it's health implications and the social stigma attached to it by puritanical prudes.

You're right; there is no point arguing with you... I wish this was a situation were I was learning something new but I was just dragged into throwing insults (and I apologize)..... You might be right, maybe they did smoke weed in the Bible days but as the Book does not reference it I would choose to believe it never happened because I use facts. You claim smoking weed has medicinal uses, maybe you're right... Only medicinal value I have found is pain reliever and you don't need to smoke it to enjoy that value... Like sugar and alcohol, too much of it isn't good... As for cigar our initial argument, you're free to smoke it in or outside church because it's not a sin to you.

As for the difference between inhaling and smoking, please do more research on that; find out the difference.

Obi1kenobi:
Tobacco smoking is only recent because of its North American roots and late discovery by Europeans. Tobacco is not the only substance smoked. Cannabis has been smoked for far longer dating back thousands of years. The general principle is about Biblical injunctions against smoking and you claim this didn't exist because there was no smoking at the time. Which is a patently false claim.

Tobacco has health benefits.
https://www.livescience.com/15115-5-health-benefits-smoking-disease.html
Marijuana has even more health benefits that are very well known these days and easy to research. You have to be living on another planet not to know them.

Alcohol is more injurious to health, and creates more acute physical/physiological addiction than marijuana does. By far. The research is easy to find, but using your Google seems a very hard job for you?

Reno Omokri is your hero. No wonder you have such a twisted relationship with facts and reality.

Because I quote someone doesn't make him my hero, you really need to work on your thinking....

I just went through the link you sent and see why your researching is so deficient; they said they found out smokers are less likely to need knee surgery but can't give the scientific evidence why, they need to give us more information about the people they used for such research... A better research would be get athletes who are in the same field and are prone to knee injuries and compare the smokers from the non-smokers.... Wilshere is a smoker and Google how many knee surgeries he has had.

Nicotine and Weed are both suppressants they don't do anything for the body but make it have a false so they don't do anything but deceive the body so how is that healthy? Hiding pain doesn't make the pain go away, that's how it becomes addictive...

Plus can you back your claim of smoking being done in the days of the Bible, can you show me a passage that states it? Your claim is that researchers "believe" it existed then with no evidence. You just use generic words and expect me to chop it.

http://www.history.com/topics/history-of-marijuana shows that Marijuana dates back to 500BC and was used as a herbal medicine, burnt seeds were found that were from that time (no evidence it was from smoking) and then 400BC Herodotus said there were Iranians from South Asia inhaling the plant when burning to get high. Then in 800AD people started smoking it in pipes.

Obi1kenobi:

Mr....please simply read an article and use the google search "history of smoking" or "origin of smoking" and you can further qualify it with tobacco, or cannabis and opiates etc. Stop wasting time arguing against basic facts that are easy to verify. I didn't even need to read any history to know people have smoked for millennia. You were the one who first claimed there was no biblical injunction against smoking because it was only started in the 9th century, and I know for a fact the Mediterranean civilizations alone have smoked for thousands of years.
If you disagree with the history, bring your own history let's see. You cannot be an armchair, keyboard historian while deriding the work of archaeological and anthropological scholars.

And we are deviating here. What makes smoking a sin? If you claim it's because it is harmful, then state what makes consumption of alcohol (Jesus turned water to wine, abi?) or sugar not to be a sin?

Before you say someone manufactured his findings, see the articles I referred about smoking before you came up with your weed theory which is different from what I stated.

As I stated earlier which you've refused to acknowledge, alcohol and sugar contain ingredients that are good for the body but cigarette doesn't so therefore; alcohol can still be regarded as good for the body while cigarette is not...

As my screenshot shows Alcohol contains Calcium, Carbohydrates, Protein, etc that are good for the body.
Check that of cigar(and also your precious weed), it doesn't contain any ingredient that's good for the body.

PS I hope you did Chemistry

As Reno Omokri says, I deal with facts not as Oyinbo say!

Obi1kenobi:
By basic research you could have conducted in seconds using Google. Before you make claims, you substantiate it.

You get all the sugar your body needs from the typical organic food and fruits you take. Nobody drinks a Fanta because they need the sugar in it.
Alcohol, nko. How useful is it to the body? It is a sin to drink alcohol, abi?

The bold statement can be found on Google. Glucose can be gotten from fruits but since some people want it from Fanta, who are we to judge. It's now their responsibility to make sure they take the right amount.

And I did the research you talked about and no where did they state it was been smoked, they used it as medicine before surgery. Plus we were talking of tobacco but you decided to change it to marijuana. Speaking of research, if you dig further into those researches you would see that some are bogus.... Imagine one wrote that Jesus used cannabis to heal people because the Bible said He instructed His disciples to use anointing oil to heal people so therefore the oil must have contained marijuana (proof of assumption). Remember research is mostly by assumption that's why there are more theories than facts. None of the articles I read can prove their story, they said Vikings brought Cannabis from China in their ships but is there a way to verify such claim. Let's stop taking researches as gospel truths.

Fact is Bible doesn't talk about Tobacco nor Marijuana to either permit or dismiss it so we can say they never crossed path with it

Obi1kenobi:
I can assure you people have smoked all kinds of substances thousands of years before Christ. Marijuana/cannabis alone, which is even more stigmatized than tobacco smoking, has been smoked for at least 7,000 years. So, I'm not sure what you're referring to.

We shouldn't poison our bodies - but poisoning it with sugars and fats and alcohol is allowed, abi?

How can you assure me? Where you there or you have first-hand knowledge? This is based on assumption! So until you can prove it, we dismiss it...

Go check your facts right, even sugar has it's uses in the body... Taking too much sugar is what's poisonous

Smoking is not in the Bible because it started in the 9th century after the Lord's death so how can they condemn something that wasn't done it that time. The Bible says our body is the Temple of the Lord and the Holy Spirit resides in it. So we shouldn't poison it. Freeze and his true sheeples should read 1st and 2nd Corinthians so they understand His word better.

But do you have the money? My brother this is 2018

It's been a while I passed Lagos-Ibadan expressway, has it been fixed?

Shankieboy:
I'm a devoted christian. I believe in Jesus And his teachings. But what I don't seem to understand is Why he hasn't changed my Sexuality. I've prayed. Threatened to harm myself, believing he'll heal me from homosexuality. But all to to no avail.

I've fasted. 5 days dry. I've been celibate for years but I still find myself attracted to members of my gender.

I'm very close to self hate because I feel disgusted with myself. I've tried to be straight. had several girlfriends but I don't seem to be sexually attracted to them. It just doesn't work.

What do I do? Please, help me. I need a miracle. I need an intervention. Else, I'll wallow in depression.

Insults are welcomed.

Focus on God and not on attraction and you will see how things will normalize... Stop looking for people to be sexually attracted to

So how come some people here claim they have had light constantly for 24 hours a day, na Benin Republic them dey get their power from

I hope your assignment due date hasn't passed yet but here is a working sample of a method that does what you requested. I didn't test it but it should work

int[] getArrayOfUniqueRandomNumbers(int n){
//Set contains only one copy of a number so it would be used to ensure uniqueness
Set<Integer> set = new HashSet<>();
// This class is used to generate random numbers in java
Random r = new Random();
int [] arr = new int [n];
int index = 0;
// index is used as a counter for entries in the array
// So we generate a random number between 0 and n, check if it's been generated before, if it has; we generate another number
// else we save the number into the array then increment our counter then place it into the array
while (index < n){
int i =0;
do{
i = r.nextInt(n) + 1;
} while (set.contains(i));
arr[index] = i;
set.add(i);
index++;
}
return arr;

}


Another way to do it is create a list, populate it with 0 to n ints and then .shuffle() the list and then convert it to an array

Which can be done as simple as

List<Integer> list= IntStream.rangeClosed(1, limit + 1).boxed().collect(Collectors.toList());
Collections.shuffle(list);
// Note Integer[] here because it's List<Integer>
int [] arr = list.stream().mapToInt(i -> i).toArray();

WhiZTiM:
In Java 8, you can do:

final int limit = 7;
Random rnd = new Random();
int[]  myArr = IntStream.generate(rnd::nextInt).limit(limit).toArray();

---

- ...

I'm not sure this can enforce uniqueness in the numbers generated and this doesn't tell Java to set the boundaries from 1 to n.

I ran this code and it was generating numbers between Integer.MAX_VALUE and Integer.MIN_VALUE

Troubledmind:
Hi nairalanders, I'm pete(pseudonym), I'm 22, and a virgin, I come from an average family, I won't say I'm too handsome but I'm averagely good looking, they was a phase in my life where I was hyperactive and always drawn to the opposite sex that mere looking at a pic I get erection, this made me chased a lot of girls with different tactics( sweet mouth, dressing, money) they all rejected me despite my looks and money, I resort to porn but find it disgusting, I switched to masturbat,ion it didn't work infact nothing is enjoyable about it and sex workers are a no no for me,

after trying desperately for years to get a real girlfriend for the first time in my life I gave up on searching, I kept loosing intrest in girls, now I never get sexually aroused anymore, even when I see naked women physically or we get locked in a room I will feel nothing, the only erection I get now is the early morning erection, I'm not gay but I am really starting to get worried

Lalasticlal.a please help a brother

You're becoming mature, you're no longer aroused by any female... It's time to look for that one female that will arouse you
