Sir, I'm yet to get response for trainee service engineer application. I have resent my application... Ogan

More often than not in our daily lives, we find ourselves staring at tiny type on computer screens and cell phones for long periods of time, leading to increased incidence of eye strain and fatigue. Add to this the natural deterioration of vision as we age — along with the more serious problems of glaucoma and cataracts — and sharp eyesight can seem like a distant dream. Despite these seemingly inevitable obstacles, we can, in fact, enjoy healthy vision to a ripe old age. Using contemporary techniques, and trusted remedies, healthy eyesight is possible without unpleasant procedures or excessive effort.

Eating for healthy eyes
For bright vision — and to avoid potential problems down the road — food is a powerful ally. Consuming a nutrient-rich diet helps protect not only health but also vision. The following edibles are a good place to start:

Dark leafy greens, carrots, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, yellow peppers and egg yolks contain potent antioxidants like beta-carotene, zeaxanthin and lutein — which defend against age-related blindness resulting from macular degeneration. Drinking freshly pressed carrot juice, at least twice per day, is an excellent habit that keeps eye problems at bay.

Foods high in sulfur, lecithin and cysteine are another helpful addition to the diet. Examples include garlic, onions, shallots, leeks, tree nuts, dairy, coconut and legumes. These edibles fortify the lens of your eye, thereby reducing the risk of cataracts.
Blueberries, black currant, acai and goji berries are chock-full of anthocyanin — a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that substantially improves eye health.

Coldwater fish like salmon, sardines and mackerel provide abundant essential fatty acids that help support cell membranes, which in turn, encourages sharp vision.

Additionally, vitamins C and E, along with the minerals zinc and copper, are useful in maintaining healthy eyesight. Citrus fruits, broccoli and Brussels sprouts are good sources of vitamin C, while tree nuts (especially almonds) are high in vitamin E and copper. Pastured beef, wild game and eggs are rich in zinc.

Exercises to improve vision
To support optimal eyesight, Mao Shing Ni, L.Ac., D.O.M., PhD, recommends the following routine:

Warm your eyes. Rub your palms together to create heat, and then place them against your eyes for five seconds. Repeat this three times.

Roll your eyes. Start by looking up and then slowly circle 10 times clockwise and 10 times counterclockwise.

Focus. Hold a pen at arm’s length, focus your eyes on it, and slowly bring the pen closer until it’s about 6 inches away from your nose. Then slowly move it back, keeping your eyes focused on the pen, 10 times in all.

Massage your temples. Using your thumb knuckles, massage your temples in small circles, 20 times in one direction and 20 in the other. Repeat the same actions above the mid-point of the eyebrows at the forehead, then below the eyes on both sides of the bridge of the nose.

Also, make sure to get enough sleep, a minimum of eight hours each night in a sufficiently dark room. Giving your eyes a break each hour of the workday is helpful too. Moreover, Trayner pinhole glasses assist in correcting problems such as computer strain, far/near sightedness, eye strain and headaches.

“Regular use builds up eye muscles and reshapes the eyes. Most people are amazed when they put pinhole glasses on for the first time and find they can instantly read small print and see sharply without their glasses.”

APC Lagos in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Joe Igbokwe has asked the Senate leadership to cover its head in shame for trampling on the integrity of due process by confirming a person that was deeply implicated in an election rigging plot in Ekiti as a Minister despite wide ranging protests against his nomination. Here’s part of the statement;

“It is obvious that the PDP presidency that nominated Obanikoro and the PDP members of the Senate that forced through decency and protests of Nigerians to approve his nomination are hell bent on corrupting both the laws and institutions of the Nigerian State by that howling act of rewarding criminality,” the party said.


“It was obvious that the ministerial nomination and the controversial confirmation are means by which a corrupt and senseless party wants to mock Nigerians, mock its laws and mock decency to reward a character that should be docked for crimes against the state. It is just too absurd that a party should visit these illegalities on a nation.

“The country is once again, assailed by the lawless inclination of the PDP as a party that thrives in such criminality as election rigging and which uses same to reward perpetrators who should be jailed for high crime which the Ekitigate scandal amounts to. What the Senate and its PDP members forced through in confirming Obanikoro is the audacious reign of illegality and impunity and Nigerians have a golden chance to throw the PDP to the dustbin of history on March 28.

“We note that the outgoing President, who was alleged to have set up the Ekiti rigging plot has bluntly refused to investigate the Ekiti scandal but had rather nominated Obanikoro for ministerial position when he should be docked. It is also important to note that the PDP members of the Senate practically forced Obanikoro’s confirmation through the stout resistance of the APC senators, the human rights community, the press and the critical mass that see the entire process as rewarding crime and have therefore called for the withdrawal of Obanikoro’s nomination.

“While we call on the country’s media, civil society groups and the critical mass to continue to insist that this reward for criminality does not stand, we urge Nigerians to see in the appointment and confirmation of Obanikoro as PDP’s bold statement on impunity and corruption, which it had made cornerstones of its misrule and throw out the PDP with the vehemence of a people tired of such brazen promotion of criminality by a cabal that sees Nigeria as its private estate. We urge Nigerians to make a loud issue of the nomination and confirmation of an alleged election rigger as a minister few weeks to a critical election, as an insult to our collective intelligence and one of the primary reasons to throw out the PDP with an emphatic thud on March 28.”

Chanchit:
Did he remember to ask EFCC to investigate him too secretly with PEJ, Deziani and NOI. Foolish man.

PM News says the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeira has ordered EFCC to secretly investigate Tinubu, Atiku, Amaechi, Gov, Oshiomole and others and they have a proof. Here's how they are reporting it.

President Goodluck Jonathan has told the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to secretly investigate the personal and official finances of leading opposition party leaders.

“I have been directed by the C in C to instruct your Agency to clandestinely investigate the personal and official finances of the following present and former government functionaries and report back by 16th of March,” Arogbofa said in the leaked letter with block letters that read: “THE PRESIDENCY: OFFICE OF THE CHIEF OF STAFF”

Others on the list are: Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo; Speaker, House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal; Governor Aliyu Wammako of Sokoto; Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano; Former Gombe state governor, Senator Danjuma Goje; Former Kwara state governor, Senator Bukola Saraki.

As at the time of publishing this report our correspondent is yet to get a response from the Office of the Chief of Staff.

authority2006: Why would you be dropped because you are not interested in the training?

none has for now

authority2006: Forcecom is a fraud, I have said it before. If you are okay with the arrangement, you can go ahead. But on a second thought, why can't you guys deceive them? I mailed SUREP before about them but no response, May be I will do that again.

But they said d trainin is not compulsary, and it didnt stop any one frm bein verified, if u dnt want d trainin jux indicate and if u dnt want forcecom they wil take u back to d pool for other employers to find u. All these wer explained by d cordinator, so it is now left for u intern to make decision. Accordin to them, none is compulsary

They will go back home as biafrans, it doesnt make sense to them to go home still answerin nigerians. Govt should provide security for them there inasmuch as they want them to be nigerians

Makpenen: I got sms frm forcecom to come for verification on d 6th Aug in Abuja bt iam in Lag now. Pls tell me wot to do? Abuja guys

is lagos ur present location now? If yes, den log into ur sure p acc n change location. Den contact forcecom lagos for further actions

Hector1759: Pls Ogomsb2k hw did u get d confirmation of bank form or ur acct no for d verification in lagos?

uba sent me mine in text msg, but those that didnt get d text wer asked to go to any uba bank to open an acc. Dat one is never a problem nah, jux go n open an acc wit any uba branch better stil go for verification without d acc no, forcecom wil tel u wht to do. Many ppl v d same problem u v

ikweremilitant: d same ojukwu was given d greatest heroic welcome in d history of dis land,d same ojukwu was accorded hs due respect by every military ruler in nija,d same ojukwu was given d greatest burial in d history of black africa b4 mandela.even ur frog eyed rat poison consumer never got such.so who is d hero?

correct!
And PEJ lacked words to describe how great ojukwu was, this led to dis blunder ''ojukwu has died but his MANHOOD lives on''

Kennedyiheme: useless god, god tht watches ebola virus kill his own children, idiotic god, i praise thee olokun

Even if humain being does not praise him, God wil raise stone to praise him

All sufficient God.
He is more than enough

deeptesting: Hard working Dude...I receive these SMS on a daily basis,that even when the sms came from my client i thought it was one of these scam SMS and deleted it..How does that make me lazy? Hypocrites.

ok, so what lesson will you learn from this?
Always find little time to read ur text msg before taking action ok? Better still, call mtn customer care rep to unsubscribe

look @ op blaming mtn over his laziness. Since u know that you are jobless and seriously looking for a job, u must not be lazy to take at least a glance on every text that enters your phone before deleting. Hope u v learnt ur lesson if at all u are sincere here. The person above me might b right though

chatwithjide: u can go for today by 9am

Guy, brief me d outcome of testerday's verification exercise. Was there any hitch? I mean any difficulty in coming to terms?

felifeli: This is a very dumb question from someone who has never traveled out of the country before and just sits in a corner and type nonsense into internet. For answer why don't you contact the airline and look at their flight itinerary and then go get yourself a job. If your brain is too lazy though, some flights from Nigeria along the West Africa coast do make such stops as normal schedule. Also, do they ask you if you have Ebola at airport ? Is it the job of airport personnel to declare you unfit for travel because you have fever ? And why would Liberia government want to get the entire world infected ? For what sensible reason? You are a very evil-minded person.

my friend, ur take on op's view is quite poor compare to ur insults before stating it. Be careful n respect someone's view

its better this way so that everybody (pdp, apc n non members of the political party) wil rise and fight bokoharam knowing fully well that none is safe. Atleast, dis attack on buhari wil make all to stop fixing culpability on one another but rather rise to solve the problem once and for all

Edokpia: . Pls which state are you from,I did my test/interview two months ago in edo state,but no response yet.

They r starting with lagos, other states wil follow subsequently accordin to d text i got

Mversed: We need info on Focecom and not TAN or whatever you choose to term it, bikokwa

Re: Turn You #3500 To Million (gold)

Joysexy: I was sent this mail too, but I discover that person/lady was just looking for a way to get people under her. I signup only to discover that it is Transformation Agenda of Nigeria. In actual sense it looks like a scam but not,looks like a job,not sha but some how. A friend from my area told me that I need to register up to 200 people before I could benefit from the program. I then summon courage and registered under her. However, the lady supposed not have stated:
"In response to your job application on our website, we are glad to
inform you that your CV had been reviewed by the Human Resource
Department and found you worthy for the position you applied for."
That is absolutely bad. Even though she was passing info that may be crucial for some of us, supposed not to paint words like that. In case she comes across this thread, please, stop doing that, it is absolutely bad. Pass your info on nairaland and it will get to the target audience, period! Don't send any mail again, else I will ask google to bound you! Hustler, you wan take us make up 200 people abi?

Exactly wht pissed me off, dt gokelue is takin some of us here as fools. Wht stops her frm invitin me to register under her after describin wht d process is all about. She rather chooses to use dis illegal process . This action wil make lot of ppl nt to look @ dis as legal even if its one

I got dis mail from joy okelue (gokelue@gmail.com), who claims to be HR of an undisclosed company. My little investigation revealed that she has sent dis mail to abt 50 nairalanders that must v dropped their email here during d sharing of workforce practice questns for uac test which she was part of. I now write to crave ur indulgence dt dis dude is a scammer who wishes to generate traffic to her blog by sharing dis fake vacancy which never existed. Fellow nairalanders take note. Her username here is gokelue. Below is d mail she sent to me
