Self-Appraisal - An Inspiring Story!
A little boy went into a drug store, reached for a soda carton and pulled it over to the telephone. He climbed onto the carton so that he could reach the buttons on the phone and proceeded to punch in ten-digits (phone numbers).
The store-owner observed and listened to the conversation:
Boy: ‘Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?
Woman: (at the other end of the phone line): ‘I already have someone to cut my lawn.’
Boy: ‘Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now.’
Woman: I’m very satisfied with the person who is presently cutting my lawn.
Boy: (with more perseverance): ‘I’ll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on Sunday you will have the prettiest lawn in all of Palm beach, Florida.’
Woman: No, thank you.
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver.
The store-owner, who was listening to all this, walked over to the boy.
Store Owner: ‘Son... I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job.’
Boy: ‘No thanks’.
Store Owner: But you were really pleading for one.
Boy: No Sir, I was just checking my performance at the job I already have. I am the one who is working for that lady, I was talking to!'
This is what we call ‘Self Appraisal’ ...

Romance / Difference Between Someone You love, And Someone You Like by paulworld(m): 9:15pm On Jan 30, 2016
In front of the person you love, your heart beats faster
But in front of the person you like , you get happy.
In front of the person you love, winter seems like spring
But in front of the person you like, winter is just a beautiful winter.
If you look into the eyes of the one you love, you blush
But if you look into the eyes of the one you like, you smile.
In front of the person you love, you can' t say everything on your mind
But in front of the person you like, you can.
In front of the person you love, you tend to get shy
But in front of the person you like, you can show your ownself.
Then person you love comes into your mind every 2 minutes.
You can't look straight into the eyes of the one you love
But you can always smile into the eyes of the one you like.
When the one you love is crying, you cry with them
But when the one you like is crying, you end up comforting.
The feeling of love starts from the eye
And the feeling of like starts from the ear.
So if you stop liking a person you used to like
All you need to do is cover your ears,
But if you try to close your eyes
Love turns into a drop of tear and remains in your

Bros your Internet speed meter reads at Mbps not MB/S. If you convert your 18mbps it will give you roughly 18/8=2.25MB/S
which is approximately 2mb/s

Romance / 3 Simple Ways To Strengthen Your Friendships by paulworld(m): 6:35pm On Sep 18, 2015
Whether you've got two friends or 20, you
probably care about nurturing your
friendships . After all, friends bring more
laughter and joy to our lives and provide
emotional support during tough times.
But sometimes other stuff gets in the way. We
have crazy deadlines at work. If we have
partners or kids, they might demand most of
our free time. And occasionally, we might
forget a birthday or realize it's been months
since our last catch-up.
You're not a bad friend, but perhaps you want
to be an even better friend . And for good
reason: Scientists have found that what
separates the happiest 10% of the population
from everyone else is the strength of their social
bonds. Harvard psychologist George Vaillant
once said that if you can think of someone you
would feel comfortable calling at 4 a.m. to
talk about your troubles, you have a good
chance of living longer than someone who's
unable to do so. It's true: People with strong
social support are happier, live longer, and
even catch fewer colds.
So, what can you do to strengthen your
friendships?
1. WALK IN THEIR SHOES
It's easy to get impatient with Judy, who's
always running "just 10 minutes late" or
Brian, the college buddy who always seems
like he's trying to upstage you. But here's where
empathy comes in: Take a few minutes to
consider what it's really like to be your friend.
What unique challenges might they face?
Research shows that practicing perspective-
taking builds empathy, which can improve our
relationships and make us more compassionate
and understanding—a quality every good
friend should have.
2. SAVOR GOOD MEMORIES
Even if you haven't seen a particular pal in
awhile, sometimes all it takes to strengthen the
bond is a reminder of past good times. Go
through photos from a memorable event or
vacation you enjoyed together—savor the
details and point out memorable moments
and funny details from the occasion. Scientists
say that this type of shared savoring, called
"capitalization," improves our well-being, and
helps foster positive social interactions by
bringing us closer. Even if you can't see your
friend in person, you can still send them a
"Remember when?" link to your photos from the
event, pointing out the best moments from the
day.
3. CELEBRATE THEIR GOOD NEWS
Did Frank get a new job last month? Did
Michelle have a new baby three months ago
whom you still haven't seen in person? Sure,
you sent a card or email to congratulate them,
but you can do even more! Meet up with a
friend who recently had good news that you
haven't celebrated properly. When you see
them, practice what scientists call "active
constructive feedback" - show enthusiasm, ask
them about all the little details, and get them
to relive the moment with you. Research by
Shelly Gable shows that when we respond to
other people's good news positively, they feel
more understood, validated and cared for,
which enhances the quality of your
relationship and makes you - both of you -
happier.

Politics / APC Seeks Probe Of NLNG Payments Under Jonathan by paulworld(m): 11:31am On Jul 13, 2015
The All Progressives Congress has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to probe the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan over $5.5bn dividends said to have been paid to the Federal Government by the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas Limited. A statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Sunday, urged the Buhari-led Federal Government to also probe the taxes and dividends accruable to the Jonathan administration through the NLNG in the last six years. The statement said, “We can tell Nigerians that apart from the said $1.6bn NLNG payment for 2015, NLNG also paid $1.4bn as Income Tax/ Education Tax in May 2014, paid $0.3bn as Education Tax to the FG in 2011, 2012 and 2013 and $1.2bn in VAT and Withholding Tax to the FG since 2009. These payments are just those made in the past six years alone, hence there were other payments before then. “In addition, dividend payments totaling $4,728,136,946 was paid to the Federal Government between 2004 and 2009, out of which only $127,851,348.19 was credited to the Federal Government’s Independent Account with JP Morgan, leaving a balance of over $4bn. The questions to ask, therefore, are why were all the past taxes and dividends neither fully paid into the Federation Account nor shared by the three tiers of government and what happened to the funds?” The APC’s demand for probe was against the backdrop of an allegation by the Peoples Democratic Party that the $2.1bn approved by Buhari to be shared among states of the federation was from the Excess Crude Account. The ruling party insisted that the $2.1bn was not taken by the Presidency from the ECA and that it was wrong and misleading of the opposition party to make such an allegation. “Whereas the Presidency corrected the initial erroneous report that the shared money was sourced from the Excess Crude Account, the skittish opposition continued to insist it was from the ECA and that it was part of the ‘savings’ by the Jonathan administration,” the APC added. The party, therefore, asked the Federal Government to probe the immediate past government on where it kept the $5.5bn which it said was the dividend paid to the Federal Government by the NLNG before the May 29 handover. “We didn’t see the $5.5bn in the system. Let them show Nigerians where it is,” the APC said. It advised the opposition to desist from telling lies, stressing that the Buhari government was committed to clearing the rot by the past government and ensure that all funds due to the federation account were paid. The statement added, “According to the PDP, President Goodluck Jonathan asked that the money be ‘left for the incoming administration to manage’. It is important for the party, therefore, to tell Nigerians in which account the money was ‘saved’ because it is definitely not in the Federation Account. “Had the PDP embraced these cardinal principles, it would not have in the rush to belittle the package that was approved for the states by President Buhari and to discredit his administration, engaged in outright lies and selective perception. “While the PDP became fixated on the source of the money shared by the states, it forgot that there were other measures in the package that included a special intervention fund of between N250bn and N300bn from the Central Bank of Nigeria as a soft loan available to states to access for the purpose of paying the backlog of salaries. “The PDP also forgot the debt relief programme designed to assist the states to restructure their commercial loans of N660bn – with a view to extending the lifespan of such loans and reducing the states’ debt-servicing expenditures. That way, the states are freed from their perennial inability to pay workers’ salaries, and more funds are available to the various governments to use for the benefit of the people.” “They have forgotten that the only time in the country’s history that this kind of rescue package was made was also during the tenure of Muhammadu Buhari as military Head of State.” The opposition party, in a statement by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, described as “misleading and outright falsehood” the statement credited to the APC. It said, “The truth is that the NLNG had been on a 10-year tax haven until 2014. Within this period, successive governments, right from President Olusegun Obasanjo, never shared nor tampered with the cumulative dividends. “Whatever taxes paid from the NLNG went through the Federal Inland Revenue Services and recorded as part of the income of the Federal Government. It is imperative to note that by the end of the tenure of President Goodluck Jonathan, NLNG dividends had risen to a cumulative $5.6bn and not a single cent was ever taken from the funds.”

Politics / PDP Engages IRI To X- Ray Ekweremadu C’ttee’s Report by paulworld(m): 11:11am On Jul 13, 2015
FORMER Deputy National Chairman of
the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and chairman
of the North-East and North-west team of the
Senator. Ike Ekweremadu led post Election Review
Committee, Alhaji Suiabu Oyedokun disclosed
weekend that as part of moves to have a
formidable party, the leadership of PDP has
engaged the services of experts from the
International Republican Institute,IRI to after the
assignment, subject the findings and
recommendations of the committee to clinical
analysis.
According to Oyedokun, it became imperative for
PDP to engage these experts to ensure neutrality of
individual members of the committee and the
leadership of the party, just as he said that all
aggrieved members of the party were regrouping to
come back under one umbrella and rebuild the
party.
Oyedokun who disclosed this after a meeting with
representatives of the party from the North-west
Zone, assured all members of the party that the
committee would not be partisan but would come
out with viable recommendations that would
make the party regained its lost glory by waxing
stronger and return to power come 2019.
He said that the PDP was desirous to regain its
lost glory against the backdrop that stakeholders,
leaders, elders and members of the party have
carried out a postmortem on last presidential and
general elections and have realised mistakes,
adding that the leadership after the poor
performance of the party in the last general
elections had to put in place the post election
review committee to examine the factors which were
responsible for its woeful performance after being
in power for the last sixteen years and having
done so much in transforming the country to an
enviable position in the committee of nations.
Senator Ike Ekweremadu led post Election Review
Committee of the Party was set up by the
National Working Committee, NWC to look at
among others, factors that were responsible for the
party’s poor performance in the last general
According to Oyedokun, “this is an innovation in
our party and in the country in general, that is
why most of us who are also founding fathers of
the party decided to partake in the assignment
despite the factthat we are in the fasting period
because we don’t normally fix political activities
for this period because it is a rigorous exercise,we
have to sacrifice a lot in the interest of the party
and our great nation.
“The Committee then decided to send various
teams to the six geo political zones to receive
representations fomr the members and here we are
our committee was posted to the North East and
the North West, We thank God that in course of
our moving round we have been able to discover
among other things that anger,
misunderstanding and internal ranging among
others which I will not mention here responsible
for our failure as a party at the polls”.
“It is interesting to note that we have been able to
receive representations from various groups and
individuals, the representations were not only
thoroughly debated but they were all adopted, we
have been able to appeal to all aggrieved
individuals and groups and the responses are very
favourably, they are all interested in returning to
under one umbrella once again ahead of 2019
general elections.”
Speaking in the same vein, former Minister of
Interior, Comrade Abba Moro who is also a
member of the committee and Senator Ibrahim
Kazaure, the North- west zonal Vice Chairman of
the party expressed optimism that with the current
efforts being made by the leadership of the party,
PDP would sooner than later regain its lost glory.
Comrade Abba Moro appealed to all party
members to put all that happened during the last
general elections behind them and forge ahead in
the over all insterest of the party having learnt its
lesson in a hard way.
On his own Senator Kazaure declared that the
party was still on ground in all the nooks and
crannies of the country and that concerted efforts
should be made to reunite ahead of 2019 general
elections.

Politics / ICPC To Arraign Aminu, Leader Of Goodluck Support Group For Extortion by paulworld(m): 11:02am On Jul 13, 2015
Justice Ishaq Bello of the Federal Capital
Territory High Court has granted leave to the
Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related
Offences Commission (ICPC) to arraign for trial
Aminu Abubakar, Chairman, Goodluck Support
Group and Okechukwu Geoffrey for extortion and
blackmail.
The accused persons who were earlier granted bail
in the sum of N15million and two sureties in like
sum, were alleged to have been in possession of
some documents relating to some officials of the
Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources, with the
intent to implicate them by publishing and
threatening them, if they do not part with the
sum of N50million.
At the last adjourned hearing on an application
filed by the counsel to the accused persons,
contesting the jurisdiction of the court to entertain
the suit, the trial judge in his ruling averred that
through out the submission of the defense counsel,
there was no basis for the charges to be quashed
as the prosecution diligently linked them to the
offenses committed.
ICPC prosecuting counsel George Lawal in his
submission argued that, for the application
seeking to quash charges to be considered, the
suspects must have been linked with the alleged
offences.
“The charge clearly shows where the first accussed
had a meeting with the officials of the petroleum
ministry, where he demanded for the sum of
N50million and even went ahead with threats,
and even went into a meeting where he collected
the sum of N5million, even writing an
undertaking”, therefore, the issue of quashing the
charge was not acceptable.
Having listened to the various submissions, Justice
Bello adjourned the matter to October 21, 2015 for
trial.
The accused persons are to appear before the court
on a 3 count charge under the penal code, for
extortion and conspiracy to extort on the next
adjourned date.
