HERE IS AN OFFICIAL RESPONSE FROM NIV BIBLE PUBLISHERS!
Dear, Thank you for checking on this before forwarding such false and misleading statements. It is good to see a Christian who uses their mind before simply believing such nonsense.
These statements are false and silly and promoted either by those who don't know any better or who are intentionally trying to mislead. They have been promoted by some people for the last 40 years or so, but were refuted by good conservative scholars from the very beginning.
First, the NIV does not remove ANY verses. Instead, like all good Bible translations, the NIV omits statements that were added later and WERE NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL TEXT. When the KJV was translated, the translators had only a few manuscripts of the New Testament available to them and these were very late (mostly from the Middle Ages). We now have hundreds of earlier and more reliable manuscripts. Scholars today recognize that we have a Greek text today that is much closer to the original than the KJV translators had available to them. So all modern versions (except the NKJV) use these older manuscripts. Even the NKJV puts the better readings in the footnotes (look for the abbreviation NU, which refers to the earlier and better manuscripts).
Remember that the original books of the Bible had no chapter or verse divisions. These were added later. So to say that there are "verses" missing is wrong. What are "missing" are phrases or sentences that were added by later scribes and were not part of the original text. The NIV, like all modern versions, seeks to preserve what was originally there. Read the Preface to the NIV and some of this is explained.
As far as the homosexual statement is concerned, this is simply false. None of the translators of the NIV were homosexuals (or Satanists!). All were conservative evangelical Christians fully committed to the inspiration and inerrancy of the text. For the names of the present and past committee members, see http://www.biblica.com/en-us/the-niv-bible/meet-the- translators/ http://www.bible-researcher.com/niv-translators.html
Just check passages on homosexuality in the NIV and you will see that the NIV is not "soft" on homosexuality. Here are the main passages:
Lev. 18:22 “ ‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.
Lev. 20:13 “ ‘If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
Rom. 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
1Cor. 6:9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
1Tim. 1:9 We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10 for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine
So you see, these accusations are false and slanderous. It is a shame that many Christians are out to attack others rather than to promote the good news.
Thanks again for your question.

These problems are meant for teens!
However, non of them is among the millennium ($1,000,000) questions thus it does not worth my sweat.
But then a glance at the first question indicates that you only need to get factors of x^6+n with n a real number. That maple will do for you, if interested.

hmmm OK.
let me observe this EFCC

Lemme observe and see if they will prosecute anyone in APC.

“Is it possible that I could be doing certain things for the
women I encounter each day, but I’m not doing them for
my wife?”

The short answer is YES, but let’s talk more about the
reasons why this might be happening.

You don’t need to read this article to know that marriage
relationships are typically very strong at the beginning.
The feeling of fresh love is in the air, the desire for
intimacy is strong and the overall feelings from each
spouse are mutual.

That’s old news for most of us.

But here’s where it gets interesting. Here’s where the
true challenge comes up in marriage. Ready? Time! As
time passes, things happen, stories unfold and the
relationship takes it’s hits. Most couples can expect this,
but few know what’s actually happening, or worse, how
to resolve it.

Here are 3 reasons why men start to take a back seat in
their marriage and forget what is really most important.

ROUTINE
Routines in marriage are going to happen. It’s inevitable.
But the couples that are aware of that, are the ones who
have the best chance of survival. As time goes on and
routines take more and more shape, it’s important to not
forget what is important to each spouse and take action
in those areas often.

ASSUMPTIONS
We all know the saying about assumptions so I won’t go
there, but it does hold true. Newly married couples love
to do wonderful things for their spouse, but after a few
years, those things tend to fade.
Assumptions are different than routines. An assumption
means you know what would be nice to do for your
spouse and then assume they don’t need it. Or assume
that doing it last week was enough. What we need to do
is assume the love tank is always going dry, therefore it
always needs to be filled up!

ROUGH PAST
Rough circumstances in a marriage can be the worst
effect of all. Routines can be adjusted, assumptions can
take place because of a lack of understanding or
communication, but a rough past can put a large STOP
sign in front of any nice gestures to your spouse.
In other words, you know what your spouse needs, but
you refuse to give it to them. Too many past issues have
come up and too many are unresolved.

All of these scenarios can be resolved, but in the meantime
can have some major negative effects. One of the worst
effects become doing things for other women that you
won’t do for your wife anymore. Either by choice or
simple neglect.

Because of the issues mentioned above, here are 8
things you might be doing for women other than your
wife.

Let me also insert here that doing these things for other
women is not wrong, we should always strive to be
respectful to all women. The issue is when you are
treating other women better than you are treating your
wife. Your wife should be getting this kind of treatment
first and foremost!

8 Things You’re doing for women other than your wife

1) Holding the door open
You may call it old school or cliche, but holding the door
open for your wife will mean a lot to her. Don’t just step
up when you see a stranger coming or a co-worker in
need, make sure your wife gets even better treatment!

2) Thanking them for their help or services
It might be easy to thank the nice woman at the check-
out line or even affirm a co-worker for their help, but your
wife needs to know her help is noticed and appreciated!
Pay attention to what your wife does for you and speak
up in thankfulness more often.

3) Valuing their choices and opinions
You may not always agree with your wife’s choices or
opinions, but as her husband, you need to take more
effort in understanding why she might be making those
decisions. Think about some recent conversations with
other women. We’re you more likely to agree or disagree
with them? Be honest.

4) Admiring their beauty
When you are away from your wife, are you able to keep
your eyes and heart in check? When you see an attractive
woman, are you more likely to look away or look in
places that you shouldn’t? Those answers are for you,
but I want you to consider why you don’t look at your
wife that way. Why isn’t she your standard? Make her
your standard of physical and emotional beauty and you
might have an easier time when you’re not around her.

5) Thinking before you speak
When I’m at work and I need to approach a woman, I
tend to think about my choice of words before I speak.
And not only that, but I tend to choose my words more
carefully during conversation. Is this the case with your
wife? Strive to be a mature husband who thinks before
he speaks.

6) Honestly listening
Staying in line with #5, listening skills are a must for a
great marriage. Think about the last time you were with
friends. Were you more likely to be rude and not engage
in listening to the conversations? Or were you listening
intently so that you would be part of the group. Well,
make sure your wife is part of the group. Make sure you
are paying attention to her words and responding to
them, and not just waiting for your turn to talk.

7) Smiling
Yes, smiling. Around friends or even co-workers, I can
find myself keeping a consistent smile on my face. Not
to look weird, but to make the other person feel
welcomed and comfortable. Do you do this around your
wife? Think about keeping a smile on your face the next
time you have a regular conversation with her. When she
ask’s why your smiling, tell her how much you love her!

Having Fun
If I happen to be in a situation where I start running into
the same woman day after day or week after week, I can
start to get comfortable with her. Even if I don’t know
her, it becomes easy to say hi and then add some little
jokes here or there. It seems harmless, but it starts to
matter if you’re doing it for them and not your wife. A
good marriage can handle a little bit of joking and
teasing (within reason). Have fun with your wife again
this week!

DIG DEEP and make sure you are not treating other
women better than your wife. Make sure your wife is
getting the attention she needs from you. Take action
this week!

Question: Which one of these steps do you need to
take action on in your own marriage today?
