Pointing out someone's flaws work best when you actually don't stoop to their level, not when you announce it. Announcing it is just arguing back in a more sneaky, indirect way. Deciding to be the mature person in a discussion is great, but if at any time you give in to a compulsion to demonstrate that you are the more mature person, you have blown it. You've officially been noticed, now, go sit down some place quiet and STFU.
o boy,sheathe your sword! lets go back to discussing our favorite shows.thats what the thread is for.abeg just leave all the beef,and lets enjoy ourselves.

Phones › Tecno Phantom Z Vs Htc 820! by phantom(op): 8:22pm On Feb 17, 2015
hello my good people. thinking of getting a new phone but making a choice is a bit difficult.

i love the phantom Z but i am afraid as the F7 a+ im currently using has started having charging issues even when i got a new battery and charger.
im afraid the charging port might be bad.
anyways,my new phone choices are the htc 820 desire or the phantom Z. tha former is more expensive by about 10k.its only appeal for me is that i can upgrade to lollipop from its current kitkat. on the other hand the tecno cant.
the 820 also has LTE.i also hear theres no micro SD slot on the tecno and the battery is unremovable. please can someone confirm.

P.S....my wife just hooked me up with a 'sailor'(though i think hes a deck hand on a ship) who wants to sell the samsung S5 to me for 40k,(no charger,no earpiece,no power bank but with the option of paying instalmentally).he says its new(claims the white men bring these things in brand new) but i am sceptical because of its authenticity. how do i confirm its genuiness??.

so the bottomline is i am faced with these three choices. please your advice is needed.thanks... smiley

grin grin grin grin grin shocked shocked shocked...................yup! most definitely a rip-off of FX's "the americans"...BUT this is a solid premiere( suspense all through the 45mins) . remains to be seen if NBC will maintain the "high" all through the season.....easier said than done grin grin grin grin
IMHO,squared off against 'the americans',this one falls waaayy short FOR NOW but i think it holds a lot of promise if this tempo is sustained. infact,i think anyone who watches 'allegiance' first before 'the americans',will fling the latter away after the first 2 episodes.
its basically 'the americans' but with a lot of maggi,salt,onions etc added.. grin grin. i can bet many peeps on nairaland would prefer allegiance to the americans
it has far more negative reviews than positive ones BUT should not be thrown away based on that. i know shows that have had terrible reviews but went on to do really well...e.g empire.

Sctests:
These are the tests that are associated with the conditions your reeled out as not needing lab tests. If a course has to with lives it can not be overrated or irrelevant. When you start your own practice, i'm sure you'll need incantations in place of lab investigations like a magician to you truly are. grin

1. UTI--- urine m/c/s, urinalysis-YES FOR CONFIRMATION! I CAN TREAT WITHOUT THESE!
2. Malaria--- M.P smear, malaria molecular tests-FOR CONFIRMATION. I CAN TREAT WITHOUT THESE!

11. Heart failure- Lipids, cardiac markers(troponin), pericardial fluid analysis-NOPE!!! i dont need these to diagnose AND TREAT cardiac failure!
12. Eclampsia-platelet count and function, protein/creatine ration estimation-SO I'LL WAIT FOR ALL THESE BEFORE I TREAT MY PATIENT WHEN SHE'S FITTING AWAY ON MY TABLE? grin
14. Sickle cell disease- Genotype, Hb-YES FOR CONFIRMATION!
15. Schizophrenia- Blood screening for drugs and alcohol to rule out conditions with similar symptoms-PLS DONT MAKE ME LAUGH!!
16. Lymphoma- cbc, blood smear, lymph aspiration-yes,the pathologists do these,not lab scientists!!!no lab sci. can diagnose blood CA on smears!

26. Multiple myeloma- BJ proteins-YES DEFINITELY BUT ITS THE PATHOLOGISTS WHO DO THIS
27. Diarrhoea- stool analysis.AGAIN,TO CONFIRM THE ORGANISM BUT I DONT NEED IT TO TREAT.
28. Stroke- PT, INR, for rule outs-PLEASE DONT MAKE ME LAUGH grin grin

Blah blah blah blah... if you were that relevant, you wont have time to be ranting about rape and writing this long drivel. All these jobless people who think the business of saving lives is about lobbying and politics. This is what happens when you use sensitive institutions like public hospitals for mass employment... you invite all the dregs in society in. From you write up, it is obvious that you may not have really worked in a hospital. Lab battle ground against hiv and tb?...hahahahaha cheesy... laughable assertion from somewone who I'm sure diesnt know his way to a tb ward.
You are no where near a pathologist both in intellect, knowledge and workload and as far as hospital lab work is concerned, if I'm looking for who's in charge, its not you. You take responsibility? huh When huhThe last time I checked, its only doctors that face panels etc
Stop trying to be what you're not, we're so important that we're the cause of all your problems in your deluded half baked mind... let the raping happily continue grin... we never cum self cheesy
abeg when you people are done arguing,tell me the lab tests that MAKE a diagnoses of
1.schizophrenia(madness,craze,kolo grin grin grin grin)
2.appendicitis
3.priapism
4.testicular torsion and which lab test will differentiate it from acute epidydymoorchitis
5.Peptic ulcer
6.stroke
7.glaucoma
8.inguinoscrotal hernia
9.intestinal obstruction
10.varicocoeles
11.chronic liver disease
12.congestive cardiac failure
13.ventricular septal defect
14.intestinal obstruction in a child

the doctor is TRAINED TO MAKE A PROVISIONAL DIAGNOSIS BASED ON JUST ASKING THE PATIENT CERTAIN QUESTIONS AND CLINICALLY EXAMINING THE PATIENT. THAT IS THEIR USP(unique selling point).THAT IS WHAT DIFFERENTIATES THEM FROM THE OTHERS.

IF A LAB TEST DOES NOT CORRESPOND WITH THE DOCTORS CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS,IT IS THE LABWORK THAT IS REPEATED
...not the other way around. that is why doctors are special. they have a fairly good idea what is wrong with a patient and only SEND FOR LABWORK TO CONFIRM!!!!! please let this sink in!!!

quote me anywhere,any doctor WHO RELIES ON LABWORK TO TREAT HIS PATIENT IS A BAD DOCTOR!! QED

Politics › The APC And The Four Fingers Pointing Back At It. by phantom(op): 7:04pm On Feb 04, 2015
a friend on facebook posted this and it is exactly my sentiment. enjoy!! smiley



For a people who desire some form of change, ANYTHING BUT JONATHAN should suffice. I still maintain that stance. GEJ has come, seen and has certifiedly FAILED.

But as the days go by, I am becoming increasingly of the conviction that Nigerians themselves (and no other) are the messiahs they seek. I say this because acquiring this form of critical thinking irrespective of your affiliation is the only thing that will save this country. undecided

Both men (Buhari and GEJ) have sufficient antecedents to argue strongly against them. No problem. For APC and Buhari, you can argue it happened in the past, even though sufficient explanations have not been given for some of those controversial decisions of the 80s. What worries me however, is the own goal the APC has just scored against itself.

Many felt the issue of certificate was a distraction (I didn't think so), that the campaign should be issue based. Well, somehow, thanks to Soludo and many other Nigerians, the plot has gone back to issues. So, one would have thought the APC would pick the gauntlet and shine with the upcoming debates. It is dis-heartening to find out not even the debate by Channels TV (an "unbiased" umpire) is going to be honoured. THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THOSE WHO SEEK TO LEAD US. The last time I checked, debates are EXCLUSIVELY issue based, so why is the APC hiding Buhari and Osinbajo? Maybe Soludo was right afterall.

Somehow, I had hoped that phrase "anything but Jonathan" would somehow not really be "anything" but at least "something" we were replacing GEJ with. I still hope so. But this own goal is a big minus. Its like refusing to take a badly needed penalty, while still boasting you have a good leg and the confidence to do so. Since "bias" of media outlets is the major reason for shying away, why are you still contesting elections under an UNTRUSTED, GOVERNMENT AGENCY called INEC?

Nigerians, gird your loins. Its still a tough journey ahead, and February 14th is not going to be a magic wand. I am sure quite a few people know this, but when events like these occur, it needs re-iterating, because we tend to forget. The PDP thieves are in the spot-light now because they are the current rapists on the block, but we need to remember how Tinubu is buying up Lagos, we need to remember the inherent contradictions in APC in the run-up to this campaign, how they screamed "ISSUE BASED CAMPAIGNS" to high heavens only to avoid the most visible platform to high-light those issues. These memories will ensure we do not go to sleep should GEJ be rightly punished with defeat at the polls.
