It's sad.
Alot of Africans are tossing their cultures for foreign ones which do not even seem to me to be better than the african ones.
What's sadder is the fact that a large percentage of them do thios because they have an inferiority complex,

well said

Beijing 2008 Olympic Games 100 metres flop, Olusoji Fasuba, has warned that the country could record a poorer showing at the London 2012 Olympics if there is no proper planning for success.

Olusoji Fasuba

The African record holder was favoured to lead the country to a respectable outing in men‘s 100m on Saturday but he surprisingly crashed out in the quarterfinals

Speaking with Brila FM on Monday, Fasuba said that he had decided to sound the warning because of the situation the national team had found itself in Beijing.

He said, “I don’t have any other excuse for what has happened in Beijing than to say it all boils down to how you handle preparations. The way things are, we may be heading for failure at the next games if preparation is handled haphazardly again.

“Other countries began preparations for this Olympics four years ago. In fact, I know some countries will begin preparation for the 2012 Olympics immediately after this one. But Nigeria always wait until the last minute to prepare for competitions.”

Although Fasuba would not blame anyone for his poor showing, he recalled that he was injured before the games.

He said, “The injury actually weighed me down, but I don‘t like making excuses. I was injured, but I don’t want to give that as an excuse. It is just for me to work harder.

“I now know that it is a different ball game running at the Olympics and running on the circuit or the championships. I now know that I have to prepare very well next time.”

Isn't this past tense yet/

Don't put your mobile close to your ears until the recipient answers

"I hope you're talking to me on a speakerphone," Devra Davis barks at me when I call her on my cell phone. "You'd better not be holding that phone up to your head."

Indeed, I'm not. This is a good thing, because you don't want to get into an argument with Davis on this subject. She's the director of the University of Pittsburgh's Center for Environmental Oncology, and her group recently put out recommendations that we should be using a speakerphone or ear piece. The report says children, who have thinner skulls and developing brains, should use cell phones only in case of emergency.

And heaven forbid anyone should carry a cell phone in a pocket or clipped to a belt. "You're just roasting your bone marrow," Davis said.

Oh, boy. Another thing to worry about. Or maybe Davis is an alarmist. It's so hard to tell. Although there are many large studies showing no connection between mobile phones and cancer, there are a few that do. As Davis puts it, do you really want to play Russian roulette with your head? Explainer: Radiation fields and the brain

But if you do buy the cellphones-cause-cancer argument, you have to figure out the best way to talk on a cell phone, seeing as how most of us can't live without them. Should you use the wired headset that came with your phone? A Bluetooth earpiece?


1. Use the speakerphone

This was, without question, the favorite alternative of the experts I talked to. Nothing is near your head. "Hold it away from a minimum of a few inches. A foot or two is ideal," said Magda Havas, an associate professor with the Institute for Health Studies at Trent University in Ontario, Canada.

Havas gives me a little math lesson. Every inch you can get away from your body, the radiation reduces very quickly. "Hold it out two inches, and the radiation drops by a factor of four. Hold it out four inches, and it drops by a factor of 16," she says.

In other words, said Louis Slesin, editor of Microwave News, "every millimeter counts."

2. Use a wired headset with a ferrite bead

No, this is not a piece of jewelry. A ferrite bead is a clip you put on the wire of a headset. The concern is that the wire itself emits radiation into your ear. The bead is designed to absorb the radiation so you don't. They're inexpensive and available at stores or online.

These clips are a favorite of Slesin's. "It's the way to go," he said.

Another fan: Lawrie Challis, physicist and former chair of the Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research Programme, a government panel in Britain. "They did tests at the University of York and found that under even the worst conditions, if you use a ferrite bead, you can't even measure the radiation coming off the wire. This common device kills the radiation."

Of course, if the phone is in your pocket or clipped to your belt, all bets are off, because the phone itself will be radiating into your body. So if you're worried about radiation, keep the phone as far away as possible, and Challis adds to do your best to make sure the wire isn't touching your body.

3. Use a Bluetooth earpiece

A Bluetooth earpiece still has radiation, but it's at least 100 times less than the radiation you get when you hold a cell phone to your head, Havas says.

Our experts were split on which was better: a Bluetooth headset or a wired one. Israeli government recommendations issued this week specifically suggest a wire; Havas likes the Bluetooth. But even she says not to wear it when you're not talking; it still sends out a signal.

"Bluetooth is only whispering radiation into your ear. The problem is, some people wear it all the time," she says. "At the very least, switch it from ear to ear so you don't have too much exposure on one side."

Michael Foley, Ph.D., executive director of the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, says Bluetooth earpieces radiate 200 times less energy than cell phones. "There is no evidence that a Bluetooth headset has any adverse effects on its users," he said.
