Sports / Anthony Joshua Vs. Francis Ngannou: It's Over! Joshua Wins With Second-Round KO by lolaxavier(m): 1:59am On Mar 09
Anthony Joshua wins with a second-round KO

Anthony Joshua knocked out Francis Ngannou in the second round of a stirring victory during Friday's heavyweight bout in Saudi Arabia.

Joshua, the British star, knocked down Ngannou in the first round, knocked him down again in the second round and then delivered the knockout punch at 2:38 of the second round.

The knockout blow, a powerful right hand, left Ngannou out cold. Ngannou, the former UFC champion, was down on the canvas for more than a minute and received oxygen, according to the DAZN broadcast.

it was a stunning setback for Ngannou, who knocked down Tyson Fury during his pro debut in October and looked impressive in a split-decision loss. But Joshua, the two-time world champion, was in control from the outset Friday.

Round 1: Ngannou opens with a nice left hook. Fighters measuring the situation. Ngannou looks composed. Big right, mostly blocked by Joshua. … Joshua drops Ngannou with a powerful right! Ngannou back on his feet and beats the eight count. Joshua looks ready to pounce, but time runs out. Joshua 10, Ngannou 8.

Round 2: Ngannou not backing away, but looks a little more tentative. Understandably. Joshua lands hard right. Ngannou throw jabs but nothing connecting. Joshua drops Ngannou again! Another big right! Ngannou back on his feet. And down goes Ngannou again! And he’s down for good!

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Kindly Advise Me From Your Experience by lolaxavier(m): 11:53am On Aug 19, 2023
1. Be polite and respectful. These don't mean you will be bowing and submitting to everything. You should learn to discern between office policies and colleagues' personal agenda. Study your office policies carefully.

2. Avoid corridor talks, also known as office gossips. One who gossips to you about someone else is also capable of gossiping about you to another.

3. Always ensure all your dealing and transactions are documented. If your manager verbally says you should carry out an action, politely tell him or her to drop you an email so that you can understand all points and act on it. If the person is difficult to approach, use reverse psychology. Outline what you've been asked to do in an email in bullet points and share with him to confirm if you've not missed out anything. For example:

Following our earlier discussion, I thought to cross check what I captured with you to be sure I did not miss out anything. Please could you confirm if x,y and z are correct, so that I can act quickly.

E get why...so that when any issue arises, you can reference such mail and save yourself. People will save themselves first and push you under the bus.

4. Get a notepad. Always listen, pay adequate attention to details and take notes in meetings either formal or informal.

5. When in meetings, only speak when you have meaningful contributions. Don't just talk so that you can be noticed. At the same time, don't always be quiet in meetings or else you will be perceived to be clueless.

6. Take feedbacks constructively. If positive, thank the person. If negative, thank the person and ask what you can do to remedy the situation and inprove. If someone gives you a feedback in a rude manner, find time to speak with him or her one on one and let your thoughts be known to the person in a polite manner.

7. Be friendly to everyone. This doesn't mean you will be friends with everyone and vice versa. Accord respect to both senior and junior colleagues. You will be liked when you are always there to show support and share Knowledge with others.

8. Learn soft skills - effective communication, listening, attention to details, eye contact etc.

9. Always see all opportunities you engage with colleagues as learning platforms. Be open to learning and improving yourself even out of your current job descriptions .

I hope you find the above points useful.
Adhere to them and you will find work enjoyable. These are all coming from my experiences working in 3 different countries.

Enjoy your work.

Sports / Gianluca Vialli: Former Italy And Chelsea Striker Dies Aged 58 by lolaxavier(m): 10:55am On Jan 06, 2023
Gianluca Vialli, the former Italy and Chelsea striker, has died aged 58 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.

Gianluca Vialli left his role as a coach with Italy in December, citing his need to undergo treatment for pancreatic cancer; the former Italy and Chelsea striker was diagnosed with the disease for a second time in 2021, after first being treated for the illness in 2017.

Vialli was first diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2017 and then for a second time in 2021, shortly after Italy's Euro 2020 triumph.

He left his role with Italy in December, citing his need to undergo treatment for the disease.

Vialli played for Cremonese, Sampdoria and Juventus before joining Chelsea in 1996.

In 1998 he became player-manager of the Blues following the departure of Ruud Gullit and that year led the club to glory in the League Cup, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Super Cup.

Vialli finished his playing career at the end of the 1998/99 season to focus on management and Chelsea would win the FA Cup and Charity Shield in 2000 under the Italian, before he was sacked early in the 2000/01 season.

Vialli played 59 times for Italy, scoring 16 goals, and had most recently been the national side's head of delegation.

Health / Re: Frequent Urinating At Night: Help!!! by lolaxavier(m): 8:50pm On May 29, 2022
Excessive urination could be indicative of an underlying ailment. If not convinced,there are many publications on credible medical websites online you can access. Take it serious and visit a very good hospital immediately.
Proper and exhaustive checks need to be carried out, and I am sure these will include running some tests. Don't brush it off. Listen to your body when it speaks and don't let people convince you otherwise. Health is wealth.
All the very best.

Let's not keep quiet and pretend like these things don't happen or they are only fictional or things you see only on social media. They are real!!!!

Simple...Choose the right circle of people and you won't have to think of ritual killing. It is what you seek or desire that you attract.

Pets / Re: Help! My Dog Doesn't Know Where To Urinate. by lolaxavier(m): 9:18pm On Jun 13, 2021
Cutezt:
So I have this 9 weeks old eskimo dog, she is lovely and a beauty to behold. I love her so much and play a lot with her, but my only problem is that she doesn't know where to urinate. She urinates on my tiles which gets me annoyed a lot of times, I have watched dog potty training videos and tried all the tips but with very little success. I have a potty for her kept in the toilet but she prefers to urinate on my room tiles.

I have tried to keep the potty where she loves to go urinate but everytime, she shuns it and still urinate on the tiles, and at one point, I beat her and put her in the bathroom so she can see that when she urinated there, I won't beat her and will reward her, but this dog held the urine for over 10 hours and immediately I opened the bathroom door, she rushed out to the room and urinated on the tiles.

I don't know what to do again, please house, help me, she seems to be confusing the room for the rest room and the rest room for the room.

It is the training you give to your dog it listens to. Training dogs is not just overnight. You have to be patient and repetitive.
Now for a 9-week old Eskimo, it is harsh to expect too much from it. It is a puppy and puppies at that age are not fully developed mentally to start assimilating commands.
Whatever training you are administering has to be patient and repetitive. The latter is what makes it stick.
If you want some useful tips and advice, call me via WhatsApp on +234805210866. I am not charging you oooo. Na free advice before you go use anger kill dat poor dog.
I have four Eskimos and they all live inside my house.

Foreign Affairs / US House reaches enough votes to impeach Trump by lolaxavier(m): 10:30pm On Jan 13, 2021
Enough lawmakers have cast votes to impeach President Trump again in a historic first, with at least 217 members having now cast votes to impeach the President, including at least nine Republicans.

The impeachment resolution charges Trump with a single article, "incitement of insurrection," for his role in last week's deadly Capitol riot.

Voting is ongoing.

As soon as the gavel comes down, Trump will become the only President in history to be impeached twice.

I've got two Eskimos and they are as lovely and cute as they can get. I'm not sure what you exposed your dog to while they were still little puppies. Remember it is how you teach your dog that it will act. My dogs don't kill rodents or roaches. They may want to chase but instantly withdraw once the insect or rodent moves away from them, they live it alone and allow it to wander away. My dogs are 11mths old.

Call me on 08173864334. We can talk more and I can give you tips on how to raise your Eskimo.
Travel / Re: Is It Really Difficult To Find A Life Partner In US Or Canada? by lolaxavier(m): 6:26pm On Sep 08, 2020
Mbdovey:
So, I got talking with a senior friend about challenges most new migrat faced in Canada and US. After several discussion, this got my attention. According to her, it's very difficult to get married or come in contact with a prospective life partner. As most Nigerian's single ladies are over age but no husband.
How true is the above statement?
Are there most Nigerian's single ladies than single men?
As a single Nigerian in Canada or US, is it really difficult finding a life partner (a Nigerian partner to be precise)?

Is it adviseable to get married to a Nigerian partner before going, what if the marriage fail due to long distance?

What's the possibility of seeing more black (Nigerians) to mingle?

What part has large number of Nigerians?

Because it's good to plan every aspect of one's life.


@Mbdovey, let's get to talk/connect if that's okay with you.
Sports / Guardiola Resigns As Manager Of Manchester City by lolaxavier(m): 7:12pm On Apr 02, 2020
Pep Guardiola has sensationally resigned as manager of Manchester City after 3 months in charge. City haven’t won a match in any competition since September, but the Spaniard’s decision has nevertheless sent shock waves through the Manchester club.

Pep Guardiola has sensationally resigned as manager of Manchester City after 3 months in charge. City haven’t won a match in any competition since September, but the Spaniard’s decision has nevertheless sent shock waves through the Manchester club.



Guardiola Stressed“I’ve enjoyed every minute of my time here,” Guardiola told Soccer on Sunday. “But I’ve taken this group of players as far as I can. Especially your man Bravo. What the hell was I smoking when I signed that head case? I’ll tell you what I was smoking. Crack. That’s what.”

“I’m clean now,” added the former Barcelona manager. “But a whole chunk of August is a blur. One minute I’m at a house party in Liam Gallagher’s, and next thing I’m waking up stark-bollock naked in the centre circle at The Etihad, with a bunch of texts asking why I’ve signed that stocking of piss John Stones?”

The Spaniard told reporters that he plans on taking a break from football.

“It’s been a tough 12 weeks,” he told Soccer on Sunday. “I’ll probably unwind in New York for a couple of years to recharge my batteries. Some of the Skinny Jeans research going on there is very exciting, and I’d like to stay close to it. There’s clinical trials underway for a new Skinny Crotch that rests a testicle on each side of the seam, rather than mushing them both one way or the other. Football is not my priority right now.”


“But when I do return, it’ll be to a one-horse league like Germany,” added Guardiola. “The Premier League is an eight or nine-horse race. Who needs that kind of stress? Not this genius. I’m pulling the ejector seat before I get played off the park on a rainy night in Stoke.”

MessiFive-time Ballon d^Or winner Lionel Messi confirms that his former manager has made contact.

“The phone calls began the day he arrived in Manchester,” the Argentinian told Soccer on Sunday. “Never says a word, but I’m sure it’s Pep. Just breathes heavily, and whispers ‘you complete me’.”
