Better picture

Get to the mechanic place close to NNPC petrol station at Amakohia, ask of Musa. The guy is trust wordy and good.

Another design

Interesting.

My issue is not in financing but in distribution and logistics.

Created an item for interior decoration which is unique and appealing. However, due to my active work I can't devote time and effort to it.
I would like to get a marketer who can get the product to interior decorators and customers that are interested in it. I also want to employ someone, for now, who can created the project. The success of the employment of such a person is dependent on the marketer.

MY REVIEW

First off, the projector is extremely small.It's exactly the same size of my S4 although the width is bigger. It can easily fit into your pocket.

Second, it's extremely light in weight.

Third, it has a micro sd slot in front, an earphone jack, AV line jack and mini VGA slot at the side and female USB and mini usb USB  the back.

Fourth is the focus. The device can be moved back and forth and the focus doesn't change. It has a focus regulator on top but you hardly use it.

Also, the accessories are a delight; it can connect to BlackBerry using a BlackBerry presenter ( not included), iPad,iPhone or iPod using a iPhone/iPad/iPod adapter and cable, PSP using a composite cable, DSTV decoder,gaming consoles, Android tablets via mini HDML cable ( included), Android phones via MHL cables, flash drives via USB to mini USB adaptor ( included) and to a laptop via VGA cable.  

Finally, a 32gb micro sd can be inserted and with the onboard media player, you have a choice of watching videos, looking at photos, listening to music or reading an Ebook.

The downside is that the internal speakers are not loud enough but the headphone and AV line outlet takes care of that.

At less than 5.6" long, 2.7" wide, and 1.2" tall, the P4-X is both a true pocket projector and a powerful mobile computing platform. The P4-X Pico Projector features a built-in lithium ion battery capable of powering the projector for over 90 minutes on a single charge. Additional features include the MicroSD card slot, USB On The-Go, Mini-HDMI, Composite Video Input, VGA Input, and a 1 watt onboard speaker.

When did you ever witness a slave being buried with a king?

Which history book did you read that in? A history book written by the white man perhaps?

Please the white man mistreated you and he mis-educated

don't know what you guys are arguing about but this reminds me of a tale my grandfather told me a long time ago.

she said there was a great king in a village close to ours who died. due to his greatness, the tradition was that even in death, his back was never to touch the ground. in order to bury him, a wooden pallet was made for him and four of his slaves carried it into a deep grave and sand was poured on them i.e they were buried alive holding the king up.

he told me the name of the village but i have forgotten. will locate it this christmas

I make the below in different colors. Imagine it in a wedding, a dinner party, gala night or at your patio. Working on other designs. It's N15000 each

MissMeiya:
Smh for Africa. Tattoos and piercings are our heritage. The missionaries have completely washed your brain.

Good day. Have you read the write up I copied for you at the culture section?

Lexusgs430:
Cool.

upgraded to the pro version. can now regulate the speed of reading by the degree of tilting. it's only $1.75. thanks a lot.

Let me warm you in advance: If you have a squeamish constitution, please do not read this piece. Just stop here and flee, for the story I’m about to tell is terribly ugly and disturbing. It is bound to leave you horribly unsettled, disturbed. In my career as a columnist I have written few essays that galled and upset me more. It is a piece I wish I didn’t have to write, but one that I feel compelled to write. A grandmother in my novel Arrows of Rain warns her son, “A story that must be told never forgives silence.”

I’m writing this piece in that spirit; it is a story, I believe, that must be told. It must be told despite its ugliness, or, in fact, because of it. Flee now, dear reader, if you can’t handle it.

A few days ago I had the horrific experience of looking at what must be one of the most grotesque videos on youtube. It’s titled “Flying bird turns to old woman in Oshodi Lagos”. The gory video shows a naked woman sitting on the bare earth, most of her upper skin peeled, as if somebody had poured boiling water on her. You’d expect somebody in her condition to be writhing in pain, but the woman sits in what seems like dumb repose. It was clear to me, looking at the video, that the woman’s pain quotient was at that inhuman level that mutes wailing, leaving the victim in a state of morose resignation.

One sees that kind of dumbfounded silence in victims of unspeakable trauma, usually in war-torn areas where horror is a staple, where people are daily subjected to acts of callousness that mock humanity and animalize them. Such was the situation of this woman, her singed, peeled flesh a testimony to an act of brutality.

The disfigured woman was a forbidding sight, a portrait of pure horror. But there was something even more disquieting. It was to see that a crowd had gathered around the woman, men, women and the young, all riveted by the repulsive scene. Not one person among the spectators appeared moved by the spectacle of a woman who was clearly seared by anguish. Not one person seemed to remember that a human being in that shape and place needed, above all, to be taken to a hospital. A few uniformed security agents are at the scene, but they show no concern about getting help for the hapless woman. They limit themselves to pushing back the crowd a bit, widening the circle around the sight of a woman in hideous condition.

Everybody seemed spellbound, seemed content to ogle the woman. Their frenzy was palpable. They were there, these spectators, as voyeurs, pure and simple. Many of them held out their cameras, snapping pictures, taking videos. As far as they were concerned, this was not a woman before their very eyes; this was not a human being. They believed—everybody there, it seemed—the fantastic tale that the grisly figure before them was a witch, a huge bird that had been flying, hit an electric wire, and thudded onto the ground as “an old woman.” I am told that the woman later died.

One is deeply disturbed that Nigeria has become a country where such superstitions, such ludicrous medieval tales find many believers. And it doesn’t matter how “educated” some Nigerians are: they are willing to believe the tallest and weirdest of tales.

Once upon a time Nigeria owned a national airline called Nigeria Airways. Our country could not sustain that carrier, and it went belly up. In its flying days, the airline’s symbol was an elephant. The carrier’s legendary incompetence and demise inspired jokes about “the flying elephant.” What kind of man or woman thought that an elephant of all things could be coerced into flight?

In retrospect, considering the bizarre things some of us are willing to believe, perhaps the image of a flying elephant is not as farfetched as one might think. We were not able to manage Nigeria Airways, but now we have Witch/Wizard Airways. A country that can’t keep aircraft in operation is now besieged—some of us believe—by witches and wizards flying sorties over Oshodi and other Nigerian spaces—and sometimes crashing to the ground!

What one finds frightening is that many Nigerians who graduated from universities and other institutions of “higher learning” are among believers in all manner of poppycock.

A few years ago, a police commissioner in Ilorin, Kwara State told reporters that his men had arrested a robbery suspect who turned himself into a goat as he was about to be caught. And he showed off the goat to reporters! That astonishing report, which made it into the international media, provoked me to write a column where I speculated that perhaps many of the contemptible fellows ruining Nigeria were goats that had taken human forms!

A few years ago, a friend in Lagos introduced me to a woman who was both a lawyer and a fanatical follower of a so-called man of God. In a straight face, the woman told me about the many spectacular “miracles” wrought by her pastor. In one account, the pastor had delivered a woman who had been pregnant for more than 12 years. As the pastor prayed, the possessed pregnant woman crumbled to the ground and began to convulse. Then, according to the lawyer-narrator, a huge snake slithered out between the woman’s thighs—and she was forever delivered from bondage! She told of a man who had come to the pastor after years of some inexplicable malaise. The pastor “prayed powerfully,” and the afflicted man sneezed out a lizard from his nostrils—and became whole again!

Some years ago, BBC TV presenters reported on a pastor whose expertise was to diagnose ailing children as witches and wizards—to deadly consequences for the child victims.


It’s no secret that some unscrupulous tricksters who mask themselves as men or women of God have helped foster this shocking culture of credulousness, this willingness to cleave to any superstition or tale, however absurd. It is a deadly, deadening phenomenon. It enables people to see a scalded victim of an obvious savage attack, and to watch her die, having stigmatized her as a diabolical, flying witch. It deadens the humanity of those who stand by and watch a miserable human expire before their eyes.

What has happened—what is happening—to the minds of some Nigerians? Why do some of us rush to believe any balderdash? Do we even have any glimmer of hope of becoming an enlightened society when we believe that some of our fellows are literally flying objects, witches and wizards out to wreck us?

This kind of ignorance redounds to the advantage of the few who exploit the rest of us. They relish it when we gather in glee around a hapless, helpless dying woman at Oshodi, mistaking her as the source of our woes. The real witches and wizards sit in the halls of power—yes, with many priests, pastors and imams as their guests—gorging on the commonwealth. And these real witches and wizards deepen Nigeria’s misery, and some Nigerians’ susceptibility to superstitions.

I specifically posted this for MissMeiya. I love your tenacity in making things straight but this is the mentally of a typical Nigerian who passed through the four walls of a university but will believe the words of a pastor who didn't finish secondary school, Nigerians who have access to internet but will believe anyone that says bathe will salt. I have resigned to just building a better me.

Truly, common sense can never supersede intelligence.

Check out an app called Tilt scroll (free with IAP). Cool App, fully utilizes all this redundant sensors on our devices.
NB: Root only devices

Thanks a lot. Finally I can read my pdf documents with tilt.

you do know that if Ikedi
Ohakim is chosen, people will vote for APC. His tyranny hasn't been forgotten.
PDP has been in the background in the past. if they mess up they will continue to stay in the background.

guess i was justified to stock up on fuel. i anticipated a fuel shortage this month.

shoyemiayodeji:
Yes boss.....but I thought the shawarma bread is called PITA bread

It depends on which country you are talking about.

INGREDIENTS

2 cups of flour
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp of baking powder
1 tsp of spice (anyone of your choice but I use garlic)
A sachet of blue band margarine

1 cup of warm water.

Optional : a food processor but I use my hands

NOTE
1. Keep an extra half cup of flour aside
2. You could use Olive or vegetable oil but the semi solid oil is important.
3. You also need a rolling pin and a board.

PROCEDURE
1. Mix the flour and the salt together in a bowl.
2. Add the spice of your choice into the bowl. Mix thoroughly.
3. Add the blue band margarine. Use a wooden spoon to blend it into the mixture.Keep mixing until the flour starts looking like small particles.
4. Add the water at least a quarter of the cup every time into the mixture every time. Mix the batter each time you add the water until it forms a dough like your first picture. It should not be sticky: if you press it with your finger it should indent but not stick to your finger. If it's too wet, add more flour. Let it have a consistency of a ball of fufu.
5. Place the dough in another bowl and cover for one hour for the dough to rise.
6. Using your hands, cut out balls the size of an egg. Two cups of flour should make 8 balls. Cover and leave for 10 minutes.
7. Now flour the board and the rolling pin. Place a ball on the board and roll it flat STARTING AT ALL TIMES FROM THE CENTER OF THE BALL. If you start at the edges you wouldn't get a round bread. Also, the margarine will make sure it maintains its shape after rolling but if you use oil it would shrink after rolling. Roll until it's paper thin and very big or to any size or thickness you want.
8. Heat a non stick frying pan until it's very hot. Carefully place a piece of the rolled bread in the pan.do not use oil. Let it frying, bursting the bubbles that form.when the edges starts getting brown flip it over and fry for another 30 seconds. Repeat twice and remove. Do not over fry.Repeat for others.

NB
If I want to make sharwama, I fry the bread very lightly and remove. When I re-fry at the end, the heat maintains the shape of the bread in the typical sharwama shape. The success in the bread give extra flavor. I made a press to help compress the balls of flour so I don't use a rolling pin.
If you make the bread very thin you can use it for other things. My favorite is a layer of peanut butter and jelly on top of the bread, then roll up the bread and cut into small rolls. I serve that as small chops at parties and is much more delicious than normal small chops.

1. make a copy of this writeup, as well as a detailed document stating which branches you contacted, who you contacted and their names.

2. Go to the Information and
Clearance services office of
the branch of cbn in your

complaint. Be as detailed as
possible.

3. After the visit ask for the

how much will it cost to print copies of three different parts? how do you determine the tensile strength of the material and where are you located?

IamDanto7:
was it stated in the video that they are pharmacist and nurses?? Ur hatred for these great professionals shouldn't block Ur common sense of reasoning... its obvious u are a doctor and this is the only country you sell Ur ignorance to Nigerians who thinks you are the Messiah... For the records, I'm a medical doctor and a SR at that. God bless u

If you watched the video, the first "doctor" that saw her in the house stated that he was a pharmacist and prescribed antimalarial. The second "doctor" that saw her in the house said she was a nurse. The first "doctor" that was contacted was a pharmacist that was selling drugs in his shop. As a medical doctor and an SR you claim you are, you should first apprehend and make assessment. It is YOU that exhibited ignorance not I.

In case you can't watch the video, "Dr" Johnson Chudwudi can clearly be seen selling drugs in his pharmacy @ 07:13. "Dr" Chris states clearly at 12:19 that he is a pharmacist. Nurse Charity @ 13:10 diagnoses malaria without looking at the patient. If you can't watch the video drop your number let me transfer credit to you.

"Home visits"? After the Ebola saga no real doctor worth his salt would do home visits for anyone.

First watch the video.

Nigeria's Fake Doctors
Africa Investigates
Last updated: 8 hours ago
Two journalists go undercover to delve into the disturbing world of West Africa's quack doctors.


Take a drive though any city or large town in Nigeria and the chances are you will come across numerous privately owned health clinics, doctor's surgeries and hospitals.

They are so widespread because Nigeria's state-run health system – ranked at 197th out of 200 by the World Health Organisation – is chronically underfunded and so overstretched that it simply cannot meet all the demands made on it. Private medicine fills the gap and in the best cases, at least for those who can afford it, it can provide a valuable alternative service.

But while there are many legitimate private health providers, there are many more that are completely bogus; unaccredited, unregulated 'quack' doctors - con artists and criminal scammers for the most part - who ruthlessly exploit the credulity, ignorance and desperation of the poorest and most vulnerable people in society. Indeed they are so prolific that a survey carried out in Nigeria earlier this year found that more than 50 percent of the population had received 'treatment' from the quacks at one time or another – even people with very serious diseases such as typhoid and malaria.

Professor Alex Dodoo, who monitors patient safety for the World Health Organisation in West Africa and has dealt with quacks for years points out the obvious dangers of dealing with fake doctors:

"If one is not licensed by the state, anything that one does is illegal. Going to see them is dangerous. Period. Would you sit in an aeroplane where the pilot says 'OK hello, I'm the pilot, but I've not been licensed!' No way! You put your health at risk and you can die."

But it is something that has long bothered Rosemary Nwaebuni, a reporter who lives and works in Nigeria's Delta State. She has encountered many people who have suffered at the hands of fake doctors, particularly women who have been the victim of botched abortions, and she is frustrated that the authorities have not done more to stamp them out.

For this this episode of Africa Investigates, she joined up with Anas Aremeryaw Anas, an award-winning journalist from Ghana, to track down the quacks and gather evidence of their scams.

The duo's eye-opening investigation quickly unearthed a host of 'doctors' and 'nurses' using forged and fake qualifications and with little or no medical training.

The premises these fake medics operate from are invariably unsanitary and the manifestly phoney 'treatments' they offer patients risk ending in blindness, poisoning, perforated wombs and even life-threatening disfigurement and death from surgical procedures carried out by people lacking even a modicum of skill or experience. Others fall victim to the quacks' complete inability to diagnose even the most obvious diseases and conditions; mistakes that are more likely to kill or injure their patients than they ever are to heal them.

Going undercover in the guise of a patient, Rosemary was offered treatment for typhoid and malaria (even though she is perfectly healthy) and an illegal abortion (even though she is not pregnant) by quacks who had no medical qualifications whatsoever but who pretended to be experienced and licensed practitioners.

In one remarkable sting, the Africa Investigates team rented a house and invited local quacks to come and do 'home visits'. The 'patient' was again Rosemary, who – with the help of a qualified medic – had learned some symptoms that any genuine doctor would immediately recognise as indications of heart disease. Instead, one after another, the 'quacks' turned up and after cursory examinations wrongly claimed that Rosemary was suffering from typhoid and malaria (two commonly cited conditions) for which she need expensive drugs that only they could prescribe.

What the fake doctors did not know was that the house was rigged with secret closed circuit cameras and that their every move was being scrutinised by a genuine medical practitioner. The doctor was local to the area and asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, but he was unequivocal in his condemnation of the fakes.

"This is absolute quackery," he said of one of the fakes. "All he did was just glance at the patient and then made a diagnosis and prescribed medications … To take all barrage of medications for this patient with malaria and typhoid. This is wrong, this is all wrong. These drugs are poison. They cause real damage."

The team took this this and other evidence to Dr Alfred Ebiakofa, a senior medical officer working for the Nigerian Ministry of Health. He had always lacked the resources and proof to go after fake doctors but now was able to act. He called in the police to work with Anas who, as the investigation heads to a climax, devised a dramatic scheme to trap one of Nigeria's most notorious quacks in the act.

This is a CHURCH.
