looooooool. That guy should be shot in the Anus at close range. If Qsat has folded up, they wouldn't have released q28 in February 2015.

Things to check
1) Account expiry
2) Software since it last worked in December
3) Use only Mike Adenuga's. network with Data and not credit
Is mike adenuga's network currently working with qsat?

Water melon solves erectile disfunction in men, by Dr. Mercola

In the US, July is National Watermelon Month, so named not only because a cool, refreshing slice of watermelon represents the epitome of summer, but also because watermelon harvests peak this month. Watermelon is now the most-consumed melon in the US (followed by cantaloupe and honeydew). This cousin to cucumbers, pumpkins, and squash is thought to have originated in Egypt close to 5,000 years ago, where it is depicted in hieroglyphics.

Today, upwards of 300 watermelon varieties are grown in the US and Mexico (although only about 50 are popular). You may think you know everything there is to know about this summertime fruit, but allow me to surprise you… watermelon is more than just delicious… it’s a super-healthy addition to your diet (in moderation, of course). You just need to be careful when eating any melon, including watermelon to follow the advice of Wayne Pickering in my interview. Eat melon alone or leave it alone because it will make your stomach groan. So ideally, no food 30 minutes before or after eating melons.

Six watermelon facts that might surprise you:-

Watermelon Has More Lycopene Than Raw Tomatoes
Lycopene is a powerful carotenoid antioxidant that gives fruits and vegetables a pink or red color. It’s most often associated with tomatoes, but watermelon is actually a more concentrated source.
Compared to a large fresh tomato, one cup of watermelon has 1.5 times the lycopene (6 milligrams (mg) in watermelon compared to 4 mg in a tomato). More on why lycopene is so important shortly…

Watermelon Juice May Relieve Muscle Soreness
If you have a juicer, try juicing about one-third of a fresh watermelon and drinking its juice prior to your next workout. This contains a little over one gram of l-citrulline, an amino acid that seems to protect against muscle pain.
One study found that men who drank natural unpasteurized watermelon juice prior to their workouts had reduced muscle soreness 24 hours later compared to those who drank a placebo.
You do need to be careful with drinking watermelon juice, though, as it contains a significant amount of fructose. It may be better to eat the entire fruit, or opt for these other tips to prevent muscle soreness.

Watermelon Is a Fruit and a Vegetable
Remember how watermelon is related to cucumbers, pumpkin, and squash? That’s because it’s part vegetable and part fruit (it’s a sweet, seed-producing plant, after all). The other clue that watermelon is both fruit and vegetable? The rind is entirely edible…

You Can Eat Watermelon Rind and Seeds
Most people throw away the watermelon rind, but try putting it in a blender with some lime for a healthy, refreshing treat. Not only does the rind contain plenty of health-promoting and blood-building chlorophyll, but the rind actually contains more of the amino acid citrulline than the pink flesh.
Citrulline is converted to arginine in your kidneys, and not only is this amino acid important for heart health and maintaining your immune system, but it has been researched to have potential therapeutic value in over 100 health conditions.8 While many people prefer seedless watermelon varieties, black watermelon seeds are edible and actually quite healthy. They contain iron, zinc, protein, and fiber. (In case you were wondering, seedless watermelons aren’t genetically modified, as they’re the result of hybridization.)

It’s Mostly Water
This might not be surprising, but it’s still a fun fact; watermelon is more than 91 percent water.10 This means that eating watermelon with you on a hot summer day is a tasty way to help you stay hydrated and avoid dehydration (it’s not a substitute for drinking plenty of fresh water, however).

Some Watermelon Are Yellow
The Yellow Crimson watermelon has yellow flesh with a sweeter, honey flavor than the more popular pink-fleshed Crimson Sweet. It’s likely that yellow watermelon offers its own unique set of nutritional benefits, but most research to date has focused on the pink-fleshed varieties.

Lycopene: Watermelon’s Nutritional Claim to Fame
Watermelon is an excellent source of lycopene, with upwards of 6,500 micrograms (6.5 mg) in less than half a cup (the red-fleshed varieties will contain significantly more lycopene than yellow-fleshed watermelon).
Also noteworthy, the lycopene in watermelon appears to be quite stable, with little deterioration occurring even after it’s been cut and stored in the refrigerator for more than two days. In one study, it took about seven days of storage for the lycopene to deteriorate, and then it was only by about 6 percent to 11 percent.
So what makes lycopene so important? Lycopene’s antioxidant activity has long been suggested to be more powerful than that of other carotenoids, such as beta-carotene. In one study, after controlling for other stroke risk factors, such as older age and diabetes, they found that men with the highest blood levels of lycopene were 55 percent less likely to have a stroke than those with the lowest.
A 2014 meta-analysis also revealed that lycopene decreased stroke risk (including stroke occurrence or mortality) by more than 19 percent. In addition to lowering your risk of stroke, lycopene has been shown to have potential anti-cancer activity, likely due to its potent antioxidant properties.
A 2014 meta-analysis of 10 studies also showed that dietary lycopene may protect against the risk of ovarian cancer among postmenopausal women. There is also some evidence from animal studies that lycopene may help with cancer treatment as well.
One study found that lycopene treatment reduced the growth of brain tumors while another showed frequent lycopene intake suppressed breast tumor growth in mice.

Watermelon Extract May Significantly Reduce Blood Pressure
New research also highlights the role of watermelon nutrients on heart attack prevention, via a significant reduction in blood pressure. Obese study participants who received citrulline and arginine supplements derived from watermelon extract had significant improvements in blood pressure and cardiac stress, both while at rest and undergoing a stressful cold-water test. According to the researchers: “Watermelon supplementation reduced aortic BP [blood pressure] and myocardial oxygen demand during CPT [cold pressor test] and the magnitude of the cold-induced increase in wave reflection in obese adults with hypertension. Watermelon may provide cardioprotection by attenuating cold-induced aortic hemodynamic responses.
” Remember, in your body the citrulline in watermelon is converted into L-arginine, which is a precursor to nitric oxide. Adequate nitric oxide is required to enable you blood vessels to stay relaxed and open for blood flow, which is one reason why it may help lower blood pressure.

Watermelon for Inflammation, Sexual Health and More
L-arginine may also help with erectile dysfunction by helping to relax your blood vessels, including those supplying blood to your penis – and that’s why watermelon is sometimes referred to as “Nature’s Viagra.” In fact, citrulline supplementation has been found to improve erection hardness in men with mild erectile dysfunction.

What else is watermelon good for? It’s rich in anti-inflammatory substances. For instance, watermelon contains the anti-inflammatory antioxidant lycopene as well as cucurbitacin E, or tripterpenoid, which reduces the activity of the pain and inflammation-causing enzyme cyclooxygenase – the same enzyme blocked by COX-2 inhibitors, which include most NSAIDs like aspirin and ibuprofen. While being very low in calories (about 46 calories in a cup), watermelon also contains an impressive variety of other important nutrients in which many Americans are lacking, including:

Vitamin C
Vitamin B6
Potassium
Vitamin A
Magnesium

Cutting into a watermelon and finding out it lacks flavor is disappointing. There’s a trick you can use to pick out a ripe watermelon, either from your farmer’s market or your own melon patch. Look for a pale, buttery-yellow spot (not white or green) on the bottom. This is where the watermelon sits on the ground ripening, and it’s one of the best indicators of ripeness you can use (even commercial watermelon pickers use this as a gauge).

Other tricks for picking a ripe watermelon include:

a. Should be heavy for its size
b Smooth rind with a dull top (the top is the side opposite the ground spot)
c. The thump test (this is controversial, but ripe watermelon is said to have a hollow bass sound)

Store your watermelon in a cool area (50-60 degrees F) until it’s cut. Cut watermelon should be refrigerated (and be sure to wipe off your watermelon with a damp cloth prior to cutting it). Remember, try the rind blended with some lime juice rather than simply tossing it in the trash (choose an organic watermelon especially if you’ll be eating the rind). Finally, watermelon should be enjoyed in moderation due to its fructose content. One-sixteenth of a medium watermelon contains 11.3 grams offructose (I recommend keeping your total fructose intake below 25 grams of fructose per day if you’re in good health, and below 15 grams a day if you’re overweight or have high blood pressure or diabetes).

Seconded. And it would even make the strawberries more attractive. It shouldn't be too expensive getting the transparent packs.

Business To Business › Exporters Protest CBN Policy On FOREX by lanre2009(op): 3:20pm On Feb 26, 2015
The Central Bank of Nigeria(CBN)has been urged to ease foreign currency controls on how agro exporters should use their foreign earnings to encourage more Nigerians to go into the business.

The CBN had introduced some measures to strengthen foreign currency controls in what has been described as a desperate attempt to shore up the struggling local currency.

Part of this was that agro exporters would sell their proceeds to banks upon repatriation of foreign earnings.

The other issue is that exporters cannot use their proceedings to finance non- transactions and that they can only sell their foreign exchange to banks.

The President, National Cashew Association of Nigeria (NCAN), Mr. Tola Faseru, said the measures limiting exporters’ access to foreign exchange and restricted local transactions to the banks would not help the industry as inflows from foreign exchange deposits would dwindle due to the unwillingness of exporters to transfer their proceeds.

He noted that the directive restricting exporters from withdrawing foreign currency without prior proof that it is meant for exports would negate the spirit of the liberation of export proceeds in 2015.

He explained that it was not fair for the CBN to force exporters to repatriate export proceeds and sell to the banks on the officials when the banks will turn back and sell such to traders on black market rate.

While it is important for the bank to take steps to strengthen the collection and repatriation of export proceeds, the President, Federation of Agriculture Association of Nigeria (FACAN), Dr Victor Iyama, said it was wrong for the CBN to determine how exporters use their money when some of them were not using the Export Expansion Grant(EEG) to fund their businesses.

So at 12 midnight my laptop restarts and automatically launches utorrent and resume all downloads. At 6am, when the free download offer stops, my laptop automatically shuts down.

i use "free auto shutdown"
I found a better way to use this plan on my laptop. I was able to get a PC software that i can use to program SHUTDOWN, RESTART, etc on my computer, and the good thing is that i dont have to wait up till 12 midnight again or wake up at 6.00am to shut down my laptop.

Kindly check the post again,I didn't add 100,000 has service charge and there's no agent that will charge you N100K.

What I wrote is as follows-

Asking price is N2.3M + N480,000 custom duty,we used to charge N350,000 with N205,000 has bank payment but NCS started impounding them so after series of meetings between ANCLA and NCS,we started charging 480,000.


Service charge is N30,000 and it's negotiable for vehicles below 2010.

If you decide not to pick your vehicle up from our office,arrangements can be made with our driver and he'll drop for a token paid by you.MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE CUSTOMS DOCUMENTS FROM ANY LOCAL NCS COMMAND,that's why we always invite you to pick your vehicle up yourself from any border it comes out from,thanks.
So the total cost of getting the car is around N2.8m, right? Pls confirm. Thanks.

Asking price is N2.3M (Cefa has gone up to N365-N1,000 Cefa) + N480,000 custom duty.

It's full options and the process takes 48hrs from time of purchase to duty payment,vehice registration etc.

Arrangements can be made for a driver but I'll prefer owner picks up himself from NCS vehic seat,thanks.
I will like to have understand your price better, do you mean the total price for the car would be as i quote below

Cost of Car (2.3m) + Custom duty (480k) + Service charge (100k) = N2,880,000.00. Please explain better and let me know if there are any hidden charges involved. thanks

Foreign Affairs › French Police Question 8-year-old Over Terror Comment by lanre2009(op): 1:33pm On Jan 29, 2015
Reports that French police questioned an 8-year-old after he allegedly made comments in school in praise of terrorists have highlighted fears that the authorities may be going too far in their crackdown on hate speech.

Police in the southern city of Nice said they questioned the child and his father on Wednesday following a report by the school’s headmaster.

The child raised concern when he refused to take part in a minute’s silence for the victims of a January 7 attack in which Islamist gunmen shot dead 12 people at the Paris offices of satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, according to Marcel Authier, in charge of the region’s public security.

The boy’s teacher said the child also expressed “solidarity” with the gunmen, who claimed their gruesome attacks were justified by Charlie Hebdo’s cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, Islam’s holiest figure.

“In the current context, the school principal decided to report to police what had happened,” said Authier, who stressed no complaint had been filed against the boy.

“We summoned the child and his father to try to understand how an eight-year-old boy could hold such radical ideas,” he added. “Obviously, the child doesn’t understand what he’s saying.”

The boy’s lawyer Sefen Guez Guez was not immediately available for comment but on his Twitter feed he wrote that the child admitted having said the words: “I am with the terrorists.”

According to the tweet, when police asked the child what the word “terrorism” meant, he replied: “I don’t know.”

Soon after, the Collective Against Islamophobia in France (CCIF), a leading anti-racism watchdog, released a statement denouncing “the collective hysteria that has engulfed France since early January”.
