EducationRe: Longest Word In English by Mandaking(op): 3:51pm On Sep 07, 2023
jaeyking:
That's not a word abeg

Just repetition of protein glutamy isoleucine and co


The longest English word is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
this word has 45 letters

check the link below to see the list of longest words

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_word_in_English

The longest word in any of the major English language dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters), a word that refers to a lung disease contracted from the inhalation of very fine silica particles, specifically from a volcano; medically, it is the same as silicosis. The word was deliberately coined to be the longest word in English, and has since been used[citation needed] in a close approximation of its originally intended meaning, lending at least some degree of validity to its claim.

The Oxford English Dictionary contains pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (30 letters).
EducationLongest Word In English by Mandaking(op): 3:00pm On Sep 07, 2023
The identity of the longest word in English depends on the definition of a word and of length.

Words may be derived naturally from the language's roots or formed by coinage and construction. Additionally, comparisons are complicated because place names may be considered words, technical terms may be arbitrarily long, and the addition of suffixes and prefixes may extend the length of words to create grammatically correct but unused or novel words.

The length of a word may also be understood in multiple ways. Most commonly, length is based on orthography (conventional spelling rules) and counting the number of written letters. Alternate, but less common, approaches include phonology (the spoken language) and the number of phonemes (sounds).

The word has the followings below:
Letters: 189,819
Meaning: The chemical composition of titin, the largest known protein
Claim: Longest known word overall by magnitudes. Attempts to say the entire word have taken two to three and a half hours.
Dispute: Technical; not in dictionary; whether this should actually be considered a word is disputed.

NOTES: This word has 189,819 characters in its name and takes almost two hours to pronounce.

In short form of the word is: ±methionyl…isoleucine

I try post the full word here, but the section box can't contain it. Below is the link to the longest word in English.

RomanceSigns Of A Womanizer by Mandaking(op): 11:36am On Sep 05, 2022
What Is a Womanizer?
A womanizer is someone who has multiple sexual encounters or relationships with more than one woman on a regular basis. While single people can sometimes live this lifestyle without hurting anyone, womanizers may pose as wanting a monogamous relationship but lie to their partner about who they’re seeing on the side.

Sometimes, womanizers will lead women on, allowing them to think that they want something serious or are in love with them. In reality, the womanizer simply wants as many women as possible, whether for sex or just attention.

Some womanizers may engage in p olygamy, which is the practice of having more than one husband or wife. Polygamy has a long history. In fact, 85% of human societies have historically allowed men to marry multiple wives. But modern society favors monogamy in both legal and religious practices.

The practice of polyamory, or participating in more than one serious relationship at a time with the consent and knowledge of everyone involved, is becoming more accepted in mainstream culture for both men and women. However, the difference in a womanizer is that he is deceitful or lacking compassion about the feelings of the women he is seeing.

Signs of a Womanizer
So, are you seeing a womanizer? There are many red flags to watch for, which can save you lots of time, energy, and heartache. Here are some of the most common signs of a womanizer:

He Is Overly Flirtatious With Everyone

Playful interactions aren’t necessarily warning signs. But if you’ve noticed that the man you’re dating is always checking out other women, flirting excessively, and getting very close, very fast with women, he could be a womanizer. He may love that initial feeling of connection and chase it whenever he can.

You’ve Heard Rumors About His Past

Anyone you date will have a past, and you can’t fault a man for having other partners or dating experiences before he met you. However, if a lot of women you know are talking about this person and don’t have nice things to say about how he treated them, stay alert. Chances are he’ll treat you the same way and move on quickly to the next woman.

He Uses His Wealth or Status to Entice Women

Maybe you’ve started dating your professor, a wealthy local, or someone who is wildly successful. Pay attention to how the relationship started. Were they just taking advantage of an opportunity presented to them? Are they using their status to get you or other women interested in them?

He Has a History of Cheating

How have his previous relationships ended? If he has been unfaithful to women in the past, this is a red flag. No one is perfect, and people can change, but be extra cautious if he has a history of cheating.

This is especially worrisome if he lies about it. More men say they cheat than women, 20% and 13% respectively. It’s always better if they own it right away and discuss the healthy ways they have since dealt with it.

He Won’t Introduce You to Friends or Family

If you’ve been with a person for a few months and he still doesn’t want you to meet his friends or family, this could be a warning sign that he’s seeing other people or not taking you seriously. He could be wanting just the fun parts of being in a relationship without a commitment. Ask if you can meet his friends and see how he responds or if he has a good excuse.

Dealing With a Womanizer
So, what if you’ve completely fallen for a womanizer? Do you have to walk away? Is there any hope that he will change? The answers will depend on the situation. Here are a few tips for dealing with a womanizer:

Confront the Issue

If you’ve noticed any common womanizer behaviors discussed above, it’s time to talk. Point out the things you have a problem with. Ask him directly if he will be able to only see you and not pick up other women. If you sense that his answer is fake or he is brushing off your concerns, he may not be ready to change.

Suggest Outside Help

If you’ve been dating for a while and really want to make it work, suggest going to couples’ counseling. This can be a great opportunity for your partner to work through some of the issues that propel him toward other women. If he agrees to go with you, it’s a sign that there is hope for the two of you.

Know When to Say Goodbye

When you really like or love someone, it’s hard to imagine your life without them. They may add something fun and thrilling that you don’t want to let go of. But when you’re dating a womanizer, you’re opening yourself up to be lied to, manipulated, and even used solely for his benefit. You should feel supported and valued in your relationship. If you don’t, it’s time to call it quits.

SportsSuper Eagle Cannot Afford To Miss The 2019 Africa Cup Of Nations In Cameroon by Mandaking(op): 3:02pm On Oct 10, 2018
This time around is a total of 24 teams that will qualify to play in the final tournament.
"It is important that we qualify for the next AFCON in Cameroon. We have not played in the competition for some time now and we can’t afford to miss the next one".Abdullahi told CSN.

I believe we have a team that can get the job done despite all the odds. The teams in our group won’t hand us the ticket on a platter of gold, so we have to work very hard to beat them to it.

The 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualification matches will be organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to decide the participating teams of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, the 32nd edition of the international men's football championship of Africa.
As per the decision of the CAF Executive Committee on 20 July 2017, a total of 24 teams will qualify to play in the final tournament, including Cameroon who qualified automatically as hosts.

The Super Eagle Must not Miss The 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

PoliticsBuhari Gov’t Paid Boko Haram Hefty Ransom For Chibok Girls by Mandaking(op): 4:24pm On Oct 14, 2016
The federal government, Bring Back Our Girls, BBOG group and Nigerians from all walks of life yesterday were in a celebratory mood, following the release of 21 girls who were kidnapped from their secondary school in Chibok, Borno State more than two years ago in a cash-for-girls exchange deal.

Although the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, dismissed initial reports yesterday that the girls were released in a prisoner swap deal, reliable sources in the presidency informed THISDAY that the girls were released yesterday morning after an undisclosed amount of money was paid to the Boko Haram leaders.

When ThisDay confronted Mohammed with the information on the cash that was paid to secure the release of the girls, he also denied it, saying his information was coming from the “very top”.

The 21 girls, who emerged from captivity, were some of the 276 girls abducted by the terror sect on April 14, 2014 from their school dormitory, sparking global outrage and the demand for their release by world leaders including U.S. First Lady, Michele Obama.

Of the 276 girls kidnapped on that fateful night, 57 immediately escaped from captivity while 219 were held captive for two years, until one of the girls, Amina Ali Nkeli, escaped last May with her baby who was conceived and born in captivity and one of her abductors, whom she called her husband.

With the release of 21 girls thursday, 197 remain in captivity with a promise by the Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo thursday that more of the girls would be released in the next few days or months.

The president’s media aide, Garba Shehu, gave the names of the freed girls as: Mary Usman Bulama, Jummai John, Blessing Abana, Lugwa Sanda, Comfort Habila, Maryam Basheer, Comfort Amos, Glory Mainta, Saratu Emannuel, Deborah Ja’afaru and Rahab Ibrahim.

Others included Helen Musa, Maryamu Lawan, Rebecca Ibrahim, Asabe Goni, Deborah Andrawus, Agnes Gapani, Saratu Markus, Glory Dama, Pindah Nuhu and Rebecca Mallam‎.

One of the 21 girls, who all looked emaciated and grief-stricken in the photographs released by the State House, Abuka, had a baby clinging to her.

Osinbajo, who spoke with State House correspondents after he met with the girls at the Office of the Department of State Services, DSS, said Nigerians should congratulate themselves and thank God for the girls’ release.

He also confirmed the information minister’s assertion that the federal government did not swap the girls for detained members of Boko Haram.

He said: “We should congratulate ourselves and thank the almighty God for the release and subsequent return home of 21 of the Chibok girls who were taken hostage two years ago.

“It is exciting news for the whole country. Everyone is really excited and I believe that we should be very thankful to God.

“I also want to thank the military and all the security services, DSS, intelligence services across the county as well as our friends and partners, locally and internationally who have also helped in bringing to a happy end of the captivity of 21 of the Chibok girls.

“About an hour ago, I met with the 21 Chibok girls who have been brought back and they are in good health, considering the circumstances they have been held in, and they are now being well taken care of in the medical facility.

“They will be staying there for sometime until we are satisfied with their health. Their parents will be coming to join them hopefully by tomorrow.

“There will be therapy, there will be counselling. Of course, we can imagine what they have gone through. So we expect that a lot of psychological therapy and so much needs to be done to get them back in the right condition.”

On whether the girls were released through a swap for suspected members of Boko Haram in government custody, the vice-president said:‎ “There was no exchange of any kind. There was no swap of any kind.

“When we started negotiations, we said we would consider all options available to us. Absolutely, there was no exchange of any kind.”

When asked further if the government will agree to future swaps to secure the release of the remaining girls, he replied: “We must be sensitive to the fact that the government wants these girls back and alive.

“Again, we must balance it against the security and safety of the country. In the process of negotiations, we will look at all options and we will weigh the options carefully and decide on what to do.

“But what has happened and the process we have begun is one which has not involved any type of swap of Boko Haram commanders or any militant in any way.

“That is a very good turn of events. We believe that in the next few days and months, we will be bringing in more of these girls using exactly the same kind of negotiations and the same template that we used.”

‘Red Cross Only Helped Convey Girls’

Providing clarity on the involvement of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), which yesterday stated that it was not involved in negotiations for the release of the girls, Osinbajo said:‎ “The Swiss government worked with us in the process of negotiations, but the Red Cross was not involved in the negotiations.

“But in conveying the girls back, of course, we worked with the Red Cross because we were unable to take our own medical team. The Red Cross was not involved at all in the process of negotiations. It was the Swiss government and our own officials comprising the DSS, intelligence and the military that were involved.”

Cash Paid for Girls

However, despite the federal government’s insistence that there was no prisoner swap to secure the release of the girls, an authoritative presidency source informed THISDAY that the government was forced to part with cash to get the 21 girls out.

Although he did not disclose the amount involved, he said: “As you know, the federal government started negotiations for the release of the Chibok girls in July last year.

“However, there were two previous attempts to secure their release which failed because Boko Haram was factionalised.

“Despite this, the government did not give up and continued negotiations through its team led by the DSS, with the support of the Nigerian Army and Air Force.

“The team eventually got the green light recently and delivered the money to the representatives of Boko Haram, following which one of the Augusta Westland helicopters which was transferred by Mr. President early this week from the Presidential Air Fleet to the Nigerian Air Force, was sent to convey the girls early this morning from the Camerounian border.”

The presidency official stated that the handover of the aircraft from the Presidential Air Fleet to the Air Force on Monday had nothing to do with the release of the girls, insisting that it was “sheer coincidence”.

He said once the girls were handed over to the government team, they were verified in collaboration with the Red Cross and flown immediately to Kaduna, where they spent a few hours and underwent a brief medical assessment, before being flow to Abuja.

“The release is the first of many phases that the government has embarked upon. We are very optimistic that more girls will be released in the next few weeks or months,” he said.

First quarter GDP slipped 0.4 percent, while second quarter GDP fell over 2 percent. Violence in Nigeria and falling Brent prices worldwide have contributed to the declines in production.

incrediboooh:
Beht it causes PIMPLES!huh
It happens when an oily substance called sebum clogs pores. Pimples usually pop up on the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. Acne isn't a serious health risk, though severe acne can cause permanent scars. Acne can also damage self-esteem...

When it comes to zits, there is no one "cause" but many factors at play which are beyond our control, such as:

How often you shed skin cells which can change throughout your life.

The amount of sebum that your skin produces which is affected by your hormone balance, which is often in flux — especially for women.

Genetics can play a big part in the development and persistence of spots, so family history can give you a good idea of how likely it is that you will develop pimples.

Health10 Health Benefits Of Groundnuts by Mandaking(op): 1:08pm On Aug 23, 2016
Groundnuts, also known as peanuts, are considered a very healthy snack. Although small in size it plays a vital nutritional role and contains amazing health benefits.

The health benefits includes:

1. Helps Promote Fertility (Folate) Peanuts contain a good amount of folate. Repeated studies have shown that women who had a daily intake of 400 micrograms of folic acid before and during early pregnancy reduced their risk of having a baby born with a serious neural tube defect by up to 70%.

2. Helps Fight Depression (Tryptophan) Peanuts are good sources of tryptophan, an essential amino acid which is important for the production of serotonin, one of the key brain chemicals involved in mood regulation. When depression occurs, a decreased amount of serotonin may be released from the nerve cells in the brain. Tryptophan may raise serotonin’s antidepressant effects when there is an increased amount of serotonin in the blood.

3. Boosts Memory Power (Vitamin B3) Do you know what can be found in peanuts that gave them the “brain food” tag? This is due to their vitamin B3 or niacin content whose many health benefits include normal brain functioning and boosting memory power.

4. Aids in Blood Sugar Regulation (Manganese) One fourth cup of peanuts can supply the body with 35% of the DV of manganese, a mineral which plays a role in fat and carbohydrate metabolism, calcium absorption, and blood sugar regulation.

5. Cancer Protection A form of phytosterol called beta-sitoserol (SIT) is found in high concentrations in some plant oils, seeds, and legumes including peanuts. Phytosterols not only protects against cardiovascular disease by interfering with the absorption of cholesterol, they also protect against cancer by inhibiting tumor growth.

6. Helps Prevent Gallstones It may come as a surprise that peanuts can help prevent gallstones. But 20 years of studies have shown that eating 1 ounce of nuts, peanuts or peanut butter a week lowers the risk of developing gallstones by 25%.

7. Boosts Memory Power (Vitamin B3) Do you know what can be found in peanuts that gave them the “brain food” tag? This is due to their vitamin B3 or niacin content whose many health benefits include normal brain functioning and boosting memory power.

8. Helps Lower Cholesterol Levels (Copper) The same nutrient which gives peanuts their memory enhancing power also helps lower and control cholesterol levels. Added to that is their copper contents which aids in reducing bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol levels.

9. Lowers Risk of Heart Disease Numerous studies have shown that regular nuts consumption is linked to reduced risk of heart disease. Peanuts are rich in heart-friendly monounsaturated fats and antioxidants such as oleic acid. So take a handful of peanuts and other nuts at least four times a week to reduce your risk of cardiovascular and coronary heart disease.

10. Lowers Risk of Weight Gain Eating nuts regularly is associated with a lowered risk of weight gain. Research has shown that people who eat nuts at least twice weekly are much less likely to gain weight than those who almost never eat them. Surprise!.
Groundnuts can be enjoyed raw, roasted, boiled and fried, Whichever way you choose to prepare your groundnut, just make sure you enjoy every moment of it.
