FlirtyKaren: One of my readers (God bless him) sent me these pictures.

He had seen them at a carpenter's shop and taken pictures when the carpenter wasn't looking. He says while he was chatting with the carpenter about the penile models, the carpenter told him he had been asked to produce them by one of his female customers.

He actually gets the contract once a year and he isn't told what the penile models are for.

I need to connect with a computer science student of any of our polytechnics.

Strictly academic.

Proudly one! The Federal Polytechnic, Bida.

Please don't add this to Guinness Book

The World Health Organisation, WHO, has said 77 percent of women in Nigeria use skin-lightening products, the world’s highest percentage. The figure compares with 59 percent in Togo, and 27 percent in Senegal.

The WHO report said the reasons for this are varied but most people said they use skin-lighteners because they want “white skin”.

WHO also said skin bleaching comes with hazardous health consequences. The dangers associated with the use of toxic compounds for skin bleaching include, blood cancers such as leukemia and cancers of the liver and kidneys, as well as severe skin conditions. It said hardcore bleachers use illegal ointments containing toxins like mercury, a metal that blocks production of melanin, which gives the skin its colour, but can also be toxic.

The report said in many parts of Africa, lighter-skinned women are considered more beautiful and believed to be more successful and likely to find marriage. It also said it is not only women who are obsessed with bleaching their skins. Some men too are involved in the practice.

WHO investigation said lightening creams are not effectively regulated in Nigeria where even roadside vendors sell tubes and plastic bags of powders and ointments from cardboard boxes stacked along sidewalks in market districts. Many of the tubes are unlabelled as to their actual ingredients.

Qatar based Al Jazeera also reported that business is booming for shops selling skin-lightening products. A trader said, “About 90 percent of my clients come asking for skin whitening products,” adding “I sell it to them and give advice on what product is best for them and how to use them.”

salaksmana: Your oga @ d top is lying.

You can say that again. But he was just hopeful about the ASUP NEC meeting in which 23 voted for the strike to be over, and unfortunately, 26 *who I think are still enjoying the unofficial holiday) voted that the strike should still be in place.

I guess those 26 should be tired by now, or at least a large chunk of them because in this month's meeting, we expect more members to vote for END of STRIKE!

Yes! Of course!

Where are the damn people in charge of that case! I sentence them to Firing Squad!
And for the perpetrators, Life Imprisonment with the hardest labour in HELL!

Yes We know GEJ engineered it.

Wonderful! That's a true Nigerian to say the least!

May their souls RIP! I wish the remaining two daughters speedy recovery and fortitude to bear their loss. I feel the greatest sympathy especially for the final year student.

That's my wonderful bank, with which I am well pleased! Hurrayyyyyyyyyyy!

Abdul Adam56: 1) ISLAM: There is no compulsion in religion.
BOKO HARAM: Everyone must adhere to our ways else…
2) ISLAM: Love all and be just to all regardless of religion.
BOKO HARAM: If you are not with us you are against us.
3) ISLAM: Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) lived with peaceful Christians and Jews as his neighbours.
BOKO HARAM: All non-Muslims mustleave the North.
4) ISLAM: You are only permitted toprotect yourselves when you are attacked first. And you should retaliate justly but when u gain an upper hand, u shld better forgive and leave everything to Allah.
BOKO HARAM: We attack all who stand in our way
5) ISLAM: A true Muslim is one fromwhose tongue and hands his community is safe.
BOKO HARAM: We do not care your religion. Muslim or Christian we will crush any who stands in our way.
6) ISLAM: Killing of innocent souls is a great sin. No human being has theright to take life except through thedue process of the Law.
BOKO HARAM: Allah will understand.He will not punish us.
7) ISLAM: During war, non-combatant women and children must not be touched. Talk less of peace time.
BOKO HARAM: We kill men, women and children.
ISLAM: At war time, all non-Muslims that run into their places of worship ortheir homes will not be harmed. Talk less of peace time.
BOKO HARAM: We bomb non-Muslims in their places of worship. We also kill Muslims in theirmosques and homes if we feel theyare a threat to us.
So who really are these people withwarped ideologies and intents?
I may not know what they are really out to achieve but I do know for sure they do not represent Islam. Rather, they are acting contrary to it's most sublime teachings: peaceful advocacy.
Of course, Islam strongly disapproves of corruption and incapable leadership!
LET'S WORK TOGETHER, REGARDLESS OF TRIBE AND RELIGION TO PROVIDEA BETTER TOMORROW FOR ALL. May Allah help us all

Are the Boko Harams Christians?

Or Are you you saying it's a new religion?

Vulcanizing! On top of my watch list now. Packaging Next!

michaelbiz:

Hello guys, I need a similar web design like Jumia.
I found some foreign designers but I'm looking for a home-based design approach.
As a brand consultant, I've handled lots of web design projects myself.
I don't mind getting a freelancer who will do it.
It seems most Nigerian web companies don't do impressive jobs.
You can prove me wrong anyway.
I know some guys out there are very good and won't cut my head off with fees.

The only difference is I'm not competing with Jumia or Konga.
My direction is different and size is smaller, but African.
Just that in this case, I only need the checkout to flow to a page showing the corporate account info page with the summary of the items and total.
Simple !

If you can handle this to my taste, give me a call.
I have three websites to design.
1. Property/Real Estate (just visit www.zillow.com) that's what I want.
2. E-commerce (something like jumia, just smaller and no need of e-payment)
3. Personal Corporate Web (clean web-design with nice branding)

I'm outsourcing them because of my job doesn't allow me to design anymore.
I wish I had the time.
Thanks. Waiting for the right person or company.

Call me now. And be sincere.
Business is business.

07057503356

How much are you offering for each category of job. State it. Then one would know either to contact you or not.
Thanks.

remmyz:

i actually sent a link to this post to a very good and intelligent friend of mine based in the US. presently in MIT. and this was his response

It is interesting concept, but... It is probably not feasible, and since no one in the scientific community is involved in this [very important] idea (I'd have heard of it if there were), I can safely say this is most likely some form of scam.
Someone on the thread mentioned something about powerful magnets, and compared it to the human strength in holding something for some time. This is the kind of argument that can 'convince' many people in developing countries about the feasibility of this. Physics students know that holding something in a stationary state is no form of work and no energy is expended. A magnet suspending a piece of metal is physically equivalent to placing the metal on a table.
Another way to look at it is, if this was something feasible and can do all it promises, why would you waste time organising seminars on it rather than filing a patent, founding a company, and finding the money to go build it and sell it all over the world?

@remmyz, What about the one with Car Battery and DC Motor. Did he also say it's not feasible?

Hmmmmm! No source then!

damickey: Yesterday, Arthur Budovsky Belanchuk was arrested under charges of financial crimes during worldwide investigation. He is the founder and owner of Liberty Reserve, one of the most popular electronic currencies online.

This arrest is a huge blow for many businesses and individuals around the world. The website and currency system is currently offline, suggesting a government seize. A government seize of the funds could result in many customers of Liberty Reserve to lose huge sums of money.

The logic in this arrest seems a bit flawed. If we are to use this logic with all currencies, most every currency would be shut down. With the potential loss of Liberty Reserve, criminals will simply move to different e-currencies. It's just unfortunate that, if legitimate, Budovsky will face criminal charges for the actions of others.

Hopefully a fair trial is put into effect and legitimate customers of Liberty Reserve do not lose their funds.

Incomplete analysis. Where is your Point-of-Entry (POE) Cost?
That is just one of the few things you omitted. I can see more.

Also, in analysis, you start with the worst case scenario, then allow reality to give better scenarios.

It took me weeks to draft a Full Feasibility Study on the Packaged Water Business, and it's sure not as scanty as what you have put up here.

Don't drive people into this business with poor information. This is a multi-million Naira venture.

But, why Ondo? Maybe he's afraid of militancy in the Niger Delta!
Militants fit migrate o! Or even self, dem fit evolve! Make una help me tell am.

What a shame! This boy shouldn't have been born!
