Romance / Man Marries His Smartphone In Church Ceremony (PHOTOS, VIDEO) by MrCrown: 2:21pm On Mar 01, 2017
Las Vegas – A Los Angeles man has taken his cellphone love to a whole new bizarre level by marrying it in a church ceremony.

34-year-old Aaron Chervenak married his cellphone at The Little Vegas Chapel in Nevada last month in an attempt to make a point about society’s growing reliance on their smartphones.

‘So in a sense my smartphone has been my longest relationship.’

‘That’s why I decided to see what it was like to actually marry a phone,’ he added.

During the ceremony, Michael Kelly who officiated the wedding asked: “Do you, Aaron, take this smartphone to be your lawfully wedded wife, and do you also promise to love her, honor her, comfort and keep her, and be faithful to her?”

“I do,” Aaron replied, and then the groom placed his wife on his left ring finger.

Religion / Re: Why Is The ‘most Religious’ Country The ‘poorest’? by MrCrown: 10:53am On Mar 22, 2016

Religion / Why Is The ‘most Religious’ Country The ‘poorest’? by MrCrown: 10:42am On Mar 22, 2016
Statista published the list of nationalities that consider religion most important. Interestingly, 7 out of the top 10 countries with the highest ranking are in Africa. Ethiopia ranked 1st with 98% and Nigeria grabbed the 9th position with 88%. No African country made the bottom 10 list. China has just 3% of her population considering religion important in their lives.

Key insights.
1. China is the LEAST religious country yet its corruption perception level is lower than 7 of the most religious countries.
2. Ethiopia is the MOST religious country yet it is the ‘poorest’ within this pool which is counter intuitive.
3. Ukraine which has the lowest GDP/Capita amongst the least religious countries is richer than 90% of the most religious countries.
4. 70% of the least religious countries are less corrupt than the most religious countries.
5. Japan, the 2nd least religious country ranks 18th on corruption perception index ahead of EVERY top 10 religious country.
From this, it shows the religious dependency in Africa hasn’t translated to lower corruption nor improved economic conditions. Does this mean Africans should become less religious?
I believe some of these actions will go a long way to help.
1. Focus more on Salvation versus Religion. There will be fewer wars if personal salvation is the focus versus religious intolerance or advocacy.
2. Practice the GOLDEN rule. ‘Do unto others as you want them to do unto you’. Do this EVERYDAY no matter your title or hierarchy.
3. Show Love. These days, LOVE is becoming one of the world’s scarcest resources, ahead of precious stones and Energy. If we all truly loved our neighbors, we will think of common good versus personal greed. There will be better leadership , less public funds looting, fewer traffic offences, less hate campaigns, less fake drugs in circulation, less pollution, less oil pipelines damages, less sabotage, less social media bullying. The list is endless
4. Do what God has placed in your abilities already. This is a sensitive one as it can come across as being less God dependent but the truth is God has given us brains already. Creation is already done; it is not work in progress. We have been given health, amazing arable land, great weather, natural resources and more. We are 1.1 billion Africans; we are 15% of the worlds’ population. It is up to us to turn Africa around.
Why are some of the most religious countries the poorest corrupt countries whilst some of the least religious are the richest and least corrupt? Your thoughts please…

Phones / Top 20 Best Free Apps For Your Android Device (For Naija) by MrCrown: 1:34pm On Aug 19, 2015
It's not hard to find great lists of the best apps to load into your android Phone. Google PlayStore conceals a wealth of apps that are really exceptional and important. I have sifted through the Playstore to bring you these hidden gems, apps that don't always make the "Loudest noise" lists (though some are), but deliver fantastic utility and interesting new features to your android phone or Tab.
Fasten your seatbelts, you really are spoiled for choice when it comes to apps, with the Google Playstore being home to thousands of them. But I must warn you, the huge quantity of apps doesn't mean they're all quality - far from it in fact. To make sure you never install a duff app, here is a quick guide.

1) Pushbullet- lets you view your Android phone's notifications and messages directly on your desktop PC. It means if you get a text message you can read it there and then without having to take your phone out of your pocket or bag. You can also quickly send files from your computer to your phone with only a few clicks.
2) Jumia- One of Nigeria’s biggest and best online shopping platform with doorstep delivery service. The Jumia app is packed full of features that make it easy to browse, buy and manage your experience whenever and wherever you are. (Konga, Dealdey, Efritin, Olx etc)
3) Shazam- You have stumbled on a music you’ve been dreaming of downloading but youre utterly confused about the artist or song title? Shazam (Soundhog) has made things easy, just activate this app and move close to the music and within minutes everything about the song comes up on your device and you know the good part, this is also saved on your history, just in case you forgot to download at that instant.
4) Linked-In By far the best social media app for professional circles, trust me this app has helped a lot of people change careers etc trust me you too can benefit hugely.
5) Kaspersky mobile- These days the internet is awash with so many viruses, malwares and worms meant to take over your device, wipe your phone memory etc, with Kaspersky youre covered to a great extent, with added features like anti-theft (a very cool feature)and don’t forget there are a couple of good ones i.e. 360 security, Avast, Norton, McAfee etc.
6) QR&BarCode scanner- It’s extremely easy to use; simply point to QR or barcode you want to scan and this app will automatically detect and scan it. No need to press any buttons, take photos or adjust zoom.
7) News24 Nigeria- This App is pretty good in case you’re the type who doesn’t like a lot of apps clogging your device, a one stop news app for happenings within Nigeria.
cool Quickteller- the best payment app in Nigeria and the safest so far. Pay for DSTV, PHCN etc
9) Office lens- We've seen document scanning apps before, but Office Lens is one of the slickest yet, helped in no small part by the office integration afforded by being a Microsoft app.
Pictures of documents and whiteboards are trimmed and enhanced and can then be converted into Word, PowerPoint or PDF files and uploaded to OneNote or OneDrive for easy access from other devices. While scanning a business card will turn it into a contact on your phone, ensuring the content is easily accessible and never gets lost.
10) Musicplus- Similar to Netflix or Spotify. Music+ has been pretty quick to establish itself as the top music streaming service in Nigeria, and this interactive app brings some great features to your Android device, turning it into a pocket jukebox that delivers your favorite tunes no matter what network you are using- even better its free.
11) BBC news- While we need to have an app that tells you everything going on around the world you live in, BBC news delivers this perfectly with easy interface and a few added features regularly.
12) Peelsmart- Just in case you can’t find your remote, use your phone with this app. It’s that simple, change channels, volume controls… (pranking)
13) Whatsapp- One of the most essential apps you can install on your Android device, especially if you have friends and family across the world. Rather than using up your SMS allowance by sending text messages, WhatsApp lets you send messages over any Wi-Fi or mobile data connection instead. You can also send and receive photos with no size restrictions, and if you're using Wi-Fi (or you have unlimited mobile data) they won't cost you any extra to send.
14) BBM- Now I have to admit this app is the best real time instant messaging service, with a few downsides (picture/video sharing size limitations), but I guess this is worth it all the way.
15) Twitter- Need I explain how this works? Well I guess not, Nigeria ranks among the best twit champs in the world.
16) Skype- There's a good chance that you've heard of Skype, the excellent voice and video service (with instant messaging thrown in for good measure as well). The Android app integrates brilliantly with your device, making it easy to make and receive calls. Calls to other Skype users over Wi-Fi are free, but you can also make calls to mobiles and landlines as well. You'll need Skype credit for this.
17) Twoo Or Baddoo- Dating apps are taking the world by storm, and it's easy to see why as it lets you view and connect with people nearby, and its simple interface could net you a match made in heaven. All you need to do is swipe through the photos of people who are using the app nearby and if you like the look of someone swipe right and if not swipe left. If someone likes you back, you'll be put in contact with them through the app. It's also compatible with Android Wear devices.
18) Mobile Banking App- This would largely depend on your bank, this service can save you a lot of time queuing up in the bank… On the go banking is the new thing I must admit.
19) Instagram- Upload photos, add quirky filters to them and share with the world. Over 300 million people use Instagram and thanks to the social aspects and effortless interface it's easy to see why it's such a hit. You're not limited to sharing your snaps on Instagram either, as you can easily add your photos to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and more with just a few taps.
20) Linda Ikeji- Hmmmmm, like it or not this is the best entertainment app in Nigeria.

You can go ahead and add more app suggestions to the comments below, if you strongly feel I omitted any versatile app.
Music/Radio / Music, Naija artists' & Weed (the Connection) by MrCrown: 11:56am On Jul 31, 2015
I saw this coming, the strange pop culture you come across on the streets and through peer groups attaching the success of music artists to marijuana, e.g. Fela, Bob Marley, new age acts (fill in the gaps yourselves) etc. etc. Earlier through the years though, MJ is mostly associated with madness or mental sluggishness which cannot be denied.
To its users, the drug has many names—many of them evasive. Marijuana may be called igbo, kanaku, smoke, Mary Jane or MJ, Indian hay, loco, weed, grass, etc. (lets know yours in the comments below).
The word marijuana is of Mexican origin and means “the weed that intoxicates.” It is made from the Indian hemp plant, a spreading green bush resembling sumac. Known to the pharmacopoeia as Cannabis sativa, it is a source of important paint ingredients and rope fiber as well as narcotics. It can be grown easily almost anywhere, hence tends to be inexpensive as drugs go.
In most Nigerian cities the marijuana salesman peddles his smoke to known clients in public places even as law enforcements’ keep keen eyes out for peddlers (Dealers always have their ways).
When you blast the weed” (smoke). Two or three long puffs usually suffice after a while to produce a light jag.
Though much of the street lingua franca would fade into the skunky haze of time as new names come up to replace the old ones for evasive reasons or perception or trend, “the weed” itself wouldn’t stay mysterious for much longer.
One reason for that mainstreaming shift is hinted at by the overhyped fact of Nigerian entertainers who in some unproven fact are said to owe much of their street credibility and their expressiveness to the use of weed. At this point I would ask the question that does it mean a lot of our artists who have refused to produce hits lately have not been puffing smoke or taking enough? Or does it mean the new guys making hits- live, eat and smoke weed? I will stop asking the questions here and let this open ended or otherwise abstract write-up give (you) the reader a chance to think and answer for yourselves.
Personally I think the reason for the connection between music and marijuana is that the illusion of a slower sense of time and a keener sense of hearing might allow musicians to improvise with more confidence. Plus, though the effects of the drug might look like the effects of alcohol, it seemed in some ways to be a better choice of vice. Though regular use would get in the way of “orderly living,” which seem to cause “physical, mental or moral degeneration.”
Heavy-drinkers are afflicted with cirrhosis or other alcohol-related conditions and the price tag of a bottle of cold beer (If your bar has electricity to cool drinks) which could also further convince Naija believers to choose to light up instead.
