Education › Reprint JAMB 2017 Exam Slip Via Email – Full Procedures by MackHort(op): 4:51am On May 10, 2017

JAMB has started sending out the 2017 UTME Exam Slip to Candidates’ respective email addresses. Here’s the procedure to get yours.
Please note that not all Exam Slips have been sent, and this will go on in batches. If you have not yet received a mail from JAMB, be patient and keep checking your email address for the mail.
We expect JAMB to know that email delivery may be unreliable, so they should make adequate arrangements quickly to ensure that candidates are able to reprint their exam slips directly from their profile on the JAMB portal. When this is available, we will let you know on this website.
Ensure you check both Inbox and SPAM/JUNK folders. If you eventually get the mail from JAMB, simply look for an attachment that comes with the mail. This attachment is a PDF file, named most likely as your JAMB registration number.
First, download the PDF file to your phone or computer system to ensure you now have it offline. If you have a printer at home, you can print the Exam Slip directly from the computer without having to visit the Business Centre or Cyber Cafe.
If you downloaded it with your phone, you can also attach the phone to your home computer and also print it from the printer attached to the computer system.
If you don’t have a printer at home, then head to any Business Center or Cyber Cafe, log into your email, re-download the Exam Slip and ask that an operator should help you print the Exam Slip.
Please print 2 Copies of the Exam Slip because you would be required to submit 1 of them at the Exam Centre. You will then keep the other copy for reference.
That should be all.
You don’t need to be in a hurry to print your exam slip. We believe JAMB will release a procedure to print this Exam Slip directly from their portal. Once that is available, we will publish it on this Bazehub Website.

Science/Technology › Whatsapp Back In Service Following Outage by MackHort(op): 12:47am On May 04, 2017
Gotten via http://bazehub.com.ng/2017/05/whatsapp-back-in-service-following-outage/

Messaging service WhatsApp has
returned after suffering an outage that cut off millions of users around the world.
The Facebook-owned instant messaging app began experiencing problems at
around 9pm, with frustrated users
taking to social media to report they could not load the app or send or receive messages from it.
The issues seem to be mainly impacting people in western Europe, parts of Central and South America, as well as the
east coast of the US according to the Down Detector website.
The service is used by more than 1.2 billion people globally with 56% of adults in Ireland having a WhatsApp account. Around 63% of those users here use it daily.
WhatsApp has not commented on the cause of the problem, but complaints posted on social media quickly made the service the top trend in the UK on Twitter.
The service has suffered major outages in the past, including on New Year’s Eve in 2015.
Social networking giant Facebook
bought WhatsApp for $19 billion in 2014.​

Those problems were particularly
focused in western Europe, the East
Coast of the US and South America,
according to the same website. But that
may simply be a result of timezones, and
the problems could be happening
elsewhere.
Users are reporting problems with
sending and receiving messages,
logging in or loading the app at all.
The chat app breaks less than some of
its competitors. But it has run into
problems in the past – including a major
outage that hit it on New Year’s Eve in
2015 .
Unlike other popular apps, WhatsApp
doesn’t maintain a status page to alert
users to when it is broken. It has a
Twitter account intended for doing so
but hasn’t used it since 2014, despite
having more than two million follows.
Messaging service WhatsApp went
down worldwide on Wednesday
afternoon.
“WhatsApp is aware of the issue and
working to fix it as soon as possible,” a
WhatsApp person told Business Insider
in an email.
The Facebook-owned messaging app
stopped working sometime around 4:50
PM EST, and as of 5:54 PM EST on
Wednesday, service had not yet been
restored to WhatsApp users.
The outage occurred just as Facebook’s
senior management was on a quarterly
earnings conference call with Wall Street
analysts and investors, but it went
unmentioned.
WhatsApp users immediately took to
Twitter to voice their frustrations:

Science/Technology › Toshiba Technology On Verge Of Collapse by MackHort(op): 1:10pm On May 02, 2017
Gotten via http://bazehub.com.ng/2017/05/toshiba-technology-on-verge-of-collapse/

Toshiba collapses?
There are indications that Toshiba technology, one of the world’s biggest electronics company based in Japan, is about to collapse following excruciating loss it recorded in business.
Toshiba warned this week that there is “substantial doubt” about its ability to stay in business, saying its loss for the year ended in March could hit 1 trillion yen ($9 billion).
The storied Japanese company introduced millions of people around the world to high-end TVs and laptops.
Today, it’s struggling through a massive financial crisis that’s threatening its very survival.
But the industrial giant — whose businesses employ roughly 190,000 people around the world — is too important for Japan to let it collapse, analysts say.
More than 100,000 of the conglomerate’s employees are in Japan, some of them in key industries.
Toshiba is pulling out of the nuclear construction sector, the root cause of its current financial debacle.
Its troubled U.S. subsidiary Westinghouse Electric filed for bankruptcy last month, and will eventually be removed from the Japanese company’s books, leaving a thick trail of red ink.
But Toshiba still has a significant nuclear business in Japan. It does decommissioning work at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, the site of a major nuclear disaster after the powerful earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan in 2011.
And the Japanese government has a track record of stepping in to save major companies that are in trouble.
Toshiba is “too big” for Japan to allow it to go under, said Kazunori Ito, an analyst with research firm Ibbotson Associates Japan.

Education › Summary Of “in Dependence” JAMB New Book For 2017 UTME by MackHort(op): 1:27pm On Apr 28, 2017
It is no longer news that 2017 UTME candidates will be tested on the book “ In Dependence ” by Sarah Ladipo Manyika .
Irrespective of your course of study or method of testing, you will be tested on this book.
The book is to be given to candidates after paying for the 2017 UTME registration.
However, for most candidates who would prefer a soft copy of the book. Here is a summary of the book based on a review by Bazehub Officials .

JAMB UTME NOVEL 2017: SUMMARY OF THE BOOK “IN DEPENDENCE”
Tayo Ajayi, a Nigerian, and Vanessa Richardson, an English lady, had their affair boiling when it began, however as circumstances have been meant to intervene, the connection went sore and it appeared nothing may ever carry them collectively.
The book (In dependence) has characters that behaved in like-patterns, like within the case of Tayo’s pal, Yusuf, who had dated tons of white English women.
He (Yusuf) ended up marrying a Nigerian Lady as predicted (Yusuf knew what he needed and appeared to get it).
Tayo additionally ended up the identical method in as a lot as his affair with Vanessa Richardson had been gleaming, though he had been out of the error of getting a younger lady (Miriam) pregnant.
And speaking of sample, the novel’s (In dependence) starting had opened up introducing Tayo’s affair with Christine, a Nigerian Igbo woman. One would suppose that Manyika needed to finish Tayo’s relationship with Christine for the sake of bringing in Vanessa into Tayo’s life, however nonetheless, Tayo needed to find yourself marrying Miriam. And nonetheless the wedding failed, giving in to the acquainted sample.
Miriam in Manyika’s novel (In dependence) represented the breeds of the Nigerians that may all the time run away to reside overseas because of the collapsing picture of their dwelling nation.
Miriam went away together with her daughter leaving Tayo behind. In as a lot as she persuaded Tayo, he wouldn’t go. She didn’t like an inconveniencing life. She needed the perfect life for her daughter.
Tayo, on the opposite facet represented the crude breeds of Nigerians that felt dwelling was dwelling despite the fact that the nation was boiling in corruption. In as a lot because the failure of the nation stared firmly at his face with daggers, he selected to remain.
In direction of the late pages of the novel he needed to depart the nation underneath threatening circumstances towards his life from the ruling navy regime.
The complete novel is informed from the great days of Nigeria’s independence down into the nineties. I applaud Manyika’s ink, right here. In as a lot because the setting of this novel floated by way of England, Senegal, USA, and France, she was ready to make use of her third eye to attract out Nigeria’s journey into the more serious lanes of corruption, and hopelessness.
Religion is one other situation that Manyika (In dependence) handled. It didn’t matter to her if one was a Muslim or Christian.
Studying by way of this novel, one couldn’t inform if Tayo got here from a Muslim or Christian household however we did know he embraced extra of the Christian religion. She didn’t level out the difficulties of inter-religious marriages within the novel (In dependence), however centred extra on the difficulties of interracial marriage.
Throughout Tayo’s life as an element time lecturer in Sans Francisco, the creator used a scene to unbolt some deeper points of racism.
She identified the racist ties between the African American and the pure African. These points she raised apply in all places even inside Nigerians.
A Yoruba would check with an Igbo as a grasping cash monger and doubtful monster, and in flip the Igbo would check with the Yoruba as a unclean, loquacious and silly character who spend all he earns on events and alcohol. It needed to be understood that racism was one these existences that may reside for a very long time so far as misunderstanding between folks existed.
I captured traces which are coated with humour on this novel, however might be referred to as racial remarks. Younger black Yusuf got here clear in his dialog with Tayo. He mentioned white ladies have been for intercourse treats whereas black ladies have been for respectable relationships that would result in marriage. He added white lady regarded so previous when she turned thirty.
The worst racist on this e-book (In dependence) is Vanessa’s father who was a one time colonial grasp in Nigeria earlier than 1960.
He was towards Tayo marrying his daughter, and had refused to just accept Vanessa’s adopted half-cast son. He appeared extra racial towards half-casts earlier within the novel (In dependence) confronting Tayo about his fears for a half-cast grandchild. It was later understood that his hatred for the blacks was consequently of an affair his spouse had with a black man through the colonial period.
Manyika, whose image reveals she is probably half-cast, was capable of make a degree right here. She drew a distinction between being black and being a half-cast (brown). This could have been fairly a storm for her to jot down about as a result of of the racial wind towards the brown folks residing in whitely dominated areas. In distinction to a pure black nation, half-casts are seen lovely which Manyika didn’t level out. In reality within the black continent, the standard black man could really feel inferior to a half-cast.
Manyika was additionally capable of painting the polemic assault Nigerians obtain from all over the world nowadays. She didn’t carry this to print however the picture was represented, and I needed to determine it out. I can say it clouds across the ache felt every time an IELTS or TOEFL examination is required earlier than a Nigerian may research overseas. This doesn’t exclude a masters’ diploma. Does the world suppose Nigerians converse Latin or Greek or some sort of language referred to as ‘Nigerian’?
‘I said I haven’t heard you converse Nigerian,’ Joyce says.
Joyce is one of Manyika’s English characters. And I like the way in which Yusuf replies this. ‘Nobody speaks Nigerian, you daft thing,’.
A coincidence on this novel which I refuse to just accept was the scene during which Vanessa had simply come throughout one of her finest music, Hugh Maskela, a music that reminded her of Nelson Mandela and on the same day, not even up to two hours if I could rightly predict, her white husband is presenting her with ‘Long Walk to Freedom’, Nelson Mandela’s biography.
What a coincidence! I additionally don’t embrace the truth that Manyika noticed hope for Nigeria by way of the eyes of Tayo solely when Abacha died. There are nonetheless Abacha loyalists in Nigeria as we speak who will discover this offending. She ought to have saved the road in a riddle.
Vanessa did meet with Tayo on the finish of the novel, nevertheless it was laborious to foretell if in any respect a love relationship was ignited between them. Vanessa was nonetheless married, however Tayo wasn’t. Manyika maintained a non-adulterous plight between the 2 right here. The happy-ending-formula which most romance writers adapt was by some means blurring within the novel.

He made this known during a workshop to train its officials ahead of the UTME exams on Wednesday.
He however made it clear that the board would not return to status quo and that he was ready to step on toes to make things work the way he wants it.
“People are bent on creating problems where none exists. I believe their toes are very big and I don’t mind stepping on them.
“We believe that at the end of the day, Nigerians will know the truth and who to appreciate and who to condemn.
“So I expect all other stakeholders involved in the system not to sabotage the efforts of JAMB but reciprocate such gesture and goodwill so that we could give Nigerians the best of services they deserve,” Oloyede said.

If you have been selected by JAMB to write this year’s UTME Mock Exam, please take it seriously, and don’t forget that other JAMB candidates who were not selected will be depending on you for updates, and detailed analysis and description of how the CBT format really looks like. You can’t let us down!
Before your mock exam on 29th April, please be prepared for anything and take this like it’s the actual exam. This will help you take the real exam with ease. Ensure you take breakfast, and arrive your centre early. Hopefully JAMB has sorted out all issues and would start early this time around.
The first thing to note when you get to your centre is that the 2017 JAMB UTME Mock Exam is absolutely FREE! You don’t need to pay any money to any CBT Centre for anything.
Please take note of everything that is happening, knowing that Bazehub and other JAMB candidates not writing the Mock will depend on your reports from the centre.

6. Check the time given for the exam
7. Check the number of questions given.
8. Remember that JAMB said typing “S” on the keyboard means you want to submit. Be careful!
You can complete the above list, if you have any points you want to add. Use the comment section for that.
So be “SHARP” as a mock candidate. You can continue practising, so you can do well in the exam, just in case JAMB sends you a dummy result, you will be able to do well in the result.

JAMB Registrar, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, made the announcement during a workshop to train its officials for the coming UTME examination in Abuja on Wednesday saying the mock exams would take place in 633 computer based test (CBT) centres across the country.
However, Oloyede said the agency had identified the technical hitches and has made necessary correction and tighten loose nuts insisting that it was trying to conduct its examinations in the best way that would not be wasteful or make Nigeria inferior in the community of examination bodies.
“We have identified those technical hitches and quickly made necessary correction and tighten loose nuts. As a matter of fact, a trial mock was conducted last week in 10 states and the exercise was 99 percent successful,” he said.
“All we are trying to do is to do things the best way that will not be wasteful, that will not make Nigeria inferior in the community of examination bodies. What we are trying to do is find the most efficient way of conducting our examination.

“I believe whatever can work in another place can work in Nigeria. For us, what we are trying to do is to give the best of our services to this great nation of ours. I need not be the registrar of JAMB if there will be no change positively.
“We believe that come Saturday, we will do our best. What we have done now is that last Monday we conducted a preliminary mock in ten places across the country and it was 99 percent success.
“We conducted it in Sokoto, Abuja, Lagos, Ilorin, Nasarawa, Lokoja and we tested the technology again it was working but it worked because of the cooperation of all.
“I don’t expect full perfection from all the system. There would be saboteurs that might work against us and that was why we have plans A, B and C, in addition to several other backups in case any of our plan fails. At the end of the day, it would be said of me that I have done my best.

Taking many years to biodegrade, these objects constitute a serious hazard for the environment, especially for sea life, when they are not recycled.
In the European Union, 38 percent of plastic is thrown out in landfills.
The promising discovery centers on the wax worm — the name for the caterpillar larva of Galleria mellonella, or greater wax moth.
In its pre-caterpillar form, the species is commercially raised as maggots to provide fish bait and aquarium food.
The moth is also a scourge of apiculture, laying its eggs in the precious honeycomb of beehives.
The find happened by accident at the home of the study’s lead author, Federica Bertocchini, a biologist at the Institute of Biomedicine and Biotechnology of Cantabria in Spain.
