no need to worry for those who pass on merit

lets see

better

its ok

forgotting

well, lets see what happens when all poly starts awarding BSC

AN ODE TO A PATRIOT, FRIEND AND SENIOR COLLEAGUE

Like A Blue From A Supple Was Mi Heart Beaten As If Av Gotten No Strength
DSP Ola Adeleke Was A Distinguished And Noble Akokite With Unbridled Commonalities With Her Alma Mater. Astute And Enterprising Young Man,
Dutiful And Cerebral Officer Who Struck Balances Amongst Competing Demand,
, His Call To Duty Was Honouring And Inspiring, His Attention To Policing And Reportage Was Lucid And Compelling, He Embellished His Thought, Remark with Invented Dialogue And Extra Detail. With Him A Dull Moment Is Non Existent And Mirage.
His Passion And Zeal For Aspiration Was Unrelenting, Never Compromised On
Principle As A Result Of Pressure Of Family, Class Or Creed. He Envisioned A
Crime-less, Free And Better Society As Being The Good And Essence For All,
He Toiled For It To Come And Embraced, But To Duty He heeded the Clarion Call,
His Life He Gave As Sacrifice For Our Leadership Inept And Fratricidal Conflict.

He Acted With Honour, He Dealt With Courage And He Achieved Martyrdom
You Shall Be Greatly Missed and Please Rest In HIS Bosom Till We All Meet To
Part No More. Adieu DSP OLA ADELEKE

Money isn't everything bro.

it is. what is the point working 4 a peanut?

well, no matter what, the bandwidth can be as efficient as a bb bandwidth.

its the ipad and iphone.no gadget in the history of mankind has man rushed to buy.

the speed of light either green red or what ever is constant for two stationary object (the source and the receiver) but when one body or the two are moving, you applied Doppler effect.

Pi0neer:
Bros, remember that you would have picked up acceleration while falling, and it will increase as you approach the center, so you get lighter and move faster.
I think you will be weightless, but still accelerating, so you will move past the point of zero gravity and continue to accelerate towards the surface. Gravity will start to act again, and you will get heavier as you move towards the surface, eventually causing a gradual deceleration. You will most likely fall back into the hole at some point, and start the whole process again. Effectively, you'll be oscillating back and forth between surfaces.

Mods, I hope I try small

acceleration due to gravity does not increase while you start moving into the earth, rather, it starts decreasing. the acceleration of gravity on you at those points is the summation of all the NEWTONS gravitational forces of all atoms that makes up the planet which is action on you at that point in time.

I totally agreed with you that you will oscillate back and forth within the earth crust. i had never taught of these before, not even while i was in school. actually, this is different from a black hole whose escape velocity is greater than the speed of light.
when you start traveling inside the earth, kelpers law is slightly modified thus given the reduction in gravitational pull.

what we need in nigeria is an ice train with magnetic levitation. the hold ups and go slow in our roads is something else.

CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME OUT WITH THE NAME OF THIS PROGRAM

THE MAIN CHARACTER IS A DOG WHO PERFORMS SOME HEROIC ACTION. THE PROGRAM USED TO BE SHOWN IN THE EARLY 80S ON LTV 8 OR LAGOS WEEKEND TELEVISION ON SATURDAY MORNING

Physics pop quiz:

The earth is spherical, right?
What would happen if I drilled a hole right through the center of the earth, from the surface of where I am, to come out somewhere else? And then jumped into the hole.
Assume the earth has a cold core and no ground water or anything like that. Just rock. What would happen?

WELL, YOU CANNOT PASS THROUGH BECAUSE AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH YOU WILL EXPERIENCE ZERO GRAVITY AND FLOAT AS IF YOU ARE IN SPACE

bukkytroni:
, If you see the Quantitative Methods and Portfolio Management, its all pure mathematics and physics. You will use poisson distribution, correlation, regression, skewness, kurtosis, confidence interval, variance, standard deviation AND pure calculus etc to Model returns and risk of an investment and summarize what a stock, porfolio or investment will look like in future.

It was very very very very interesting for me because I had a fully quantitative background and eventually turned to a lecture among my finance peers because IF YOU WERE NEVER A PHYSICIST (ANALYTICAL), YOU CAN NEVER BE/THINK LIKE A PHYSICIST.

I am very proud that I studied physics and If given the opportunity to go to university again, I will definitely do a double major in PHYSICS/ACTUARIAL SCIENCE/QUANTITATIVE FINANCE.

Meanwhile, I work with a firm where I crunch all their data and tell them in simple sentences what the figures and trends are saying,

WELL YOU HAVE ACTUALLY DONE SOME APPLIED PHYSICS. I HAVE A BOOK WHICH I AM WORKING ON WITH THE TITLE MONEY CIRCUITRY. IT INVOLVES THE APPLICATION OF PHYSIC LAWS IN EXPLAINING FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES.
BUT MY GREATEST PROBLEM IS THAT FINANCIAL LAWS AND THEORIES CANT WORK IN NIGERIA.

GREATEST PHYSICISTS, NICE YOU GUYS ARE MEETING HERE. PHYSICS ACTUALLY IS A COURSE THAT UNLOCK THE SECRET OF NATURE. IT IS HOWEVER SAD THAT NIGERIA IS NEVER IN THAT RACE. AMERICA AND OTHER ADVANCED COUNTRIES HAVE LEARN FROM THE WORLD WARS THAT SCIENCE, PARTICULARLY PHYSICS CAN WIN WARS. THIS WARS A LESSON WE ALL SEE WITH JAPAN SURRENDERING UNCONDITIONALLY JUST AFTER THREE DAYS OF THE SECOND ATOMIC BOMB WAS DROPPED, A WAR THAT WOULD HAVE LASTED MORE THAN A YEAR AFTER. AFTER THE WAR, THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT GAVE GRANTS TO SCHOOLS (AND PHYSICISTS) TO UNLOCK MORE OF SUCH NATURES. THESE CRATED JOBS FOR THE PHYSICISTS AND INCREASED MANS KNOWLEDGE BEYOND LIMITS. ORDINARILY THE PHYSICIST JOB IS LIKE THAT OF A PRIEST. A PRIEST LEAVES ON THE TITHE AND OFFERING OF MEMBERS. IN ADVANCED COUNTRIES, THESE GRANTS CREATED MANY JOBS AND THUS WEALTH IN MANY HIGH PROFILE PLACE LIKE NASA, INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC AGENCY, ETC. IN NIGERIA HOWEVER, THE CLASSROOM IS THE SUREST PLACE FOR A PHYSICIST. THANK GOD HOWEVER, BANKS, TELECOM INDUSTRIES, MINISTRIES AND SOME OTHER FINANCIAL INDUSTRIES ARE CREATING JOB OPPORTUNITIES. SO NEVER GET TO WORRY.

noting much

Space: 1999
,

yes space 1999, that is one of the best sci fi i have ever watched. in fact it is one of the greatest motivator which developed my interest in science. even at later years when i was opportune to watch a re aired episode of one of the series, i saw that the story line even follows actual theories in science that makes it more real than the likes of star trek. it was my first orientation to AI where crews asked computers 4 possible solutions and video calls where crew calls one another seeing each other on a tv monitor

I feel you. But the world does not work that way; so many folks who deserve to be celebrated are not. I believe so many programmers do not even know who this great man was. I would rate the invention of C and Unix as the top most important milestone in computing history, even far important than that of the Internet. [/quote]thanks, in fact they are the fore runners of the internet and windows environment.

its a pity that the world did not celebrate this great man and his invention the way he deserved. his work is one of the most important in computing history. the so called java is a modernization of his work. even his death can not even make headline or main pagein our own dear nairaland. then what are we glorifying?

his works makes computers to be free from been just a mainframe

The world has lost another computer pioneer. Dennis Ritchie, the computer scientist who invented the C programming language and co-developed the Unix operating system, has died at the age of 70. While working at Bell Labs in the 1960s and early '70s, Ritchie served as the principal designer of C and was the co-developer of the Unix operating system. C, renowned for its clear, simple language, would become a vital tool in website development, while Unix is the foundation for computer operating systems such as Apples iOS.The tools that Dennis built — and their direct descendants — run pretty much everything today

well, they should rather go into prostitution

delphi is a programming lang built to bring OOP to pascal as C++ was a programming Lang built to bring OOP to C lang.

They are excessively loud,try playing a song with it.

double or triple sim cards slots

that says it all

not to worry, only time will tell. now that iphone can now ping like BB with ipad ,ipods and other iphones, lets see what will become of a black berry

any

what do we actually refers to as a school or a university? a place of learning. but can learning only takes place within these environment? absolutely NO is the answer. that is the philosophy behind the open university. learning can take place in your bed room so far you are receiving some forms of instructions and digesting the so called course content. but it is really difficult because of one form of distraction or the other and no one to motivate you into learning fast and wild.

Silly list. No Lionel Messi

mind you, it says 2004. by then who knows messi

beware of fake schools
