I had to go into serious talk with my creator. Afterall, He created me, therefore, He should guide me aright. I did this for months. I didn't consult anybody because I didn't want to be cajoled into any religion. This went on for months and gradually, I found THE TRUE PATH. and inclined towards it. I got so convinced about it and have since
been grateful to God.

This is the one I call Chrislamity

SeanT21:
This is a town hall format. mccain got the hand up on this one.

Even if it's a village square format, it won't help him

Tonight na tonight.
The McCain camp is sure to bring on the smear campaign as they've been doing in the last few days having run out of options and slipping in the polls.
Let's see Obama kick the senior citizen where it hurts.
Prepare for war!

Pataki:
I don't think I would get involved with someone who does. However, whoever pleases and wants to, is their choice. I am not obligated to force my opinion on anyone. Neither should anyone force theirs on me or whoever.

If they smoke on street corners,puffing to into the air with their cigarette smoke in our sorroundings,it has become my problem.
If they smoke in public restaurants,buses, or any places where innocent people can inhale their carcinogens,it is my problem.
If they work with me,sit by me,it is our problem
Second hand smoke kills.
The only time it is their problem is when they smoke only in their homes and work and shop from home
That is the only time soceity will be be less disturbed by them.
But then again when they develop lung cancer,get dropped by the health insurance carrier and the state picks up their medical care, they become my problem yet again
My taxes, their problem is now mine.

“If you take the education of the girl-child as indicator, you see similar pattern of inequality with the South-East having an enrolment rate of 85%, South-Wes having an enrolment rate of 85%, South-South 75%, while the North-East 20% and North West 25%."

They have tried na.
It used to be about 10% in the late eighties and early nineties.
Are they counting those arabic schools where the kids are sprawled on the floor, rocking back and forth and mumbling things as education?

Na end of the film "to God be the glory" dey appear. My own film of life just dey start abeg . . .
You people and your active imaginations . . . allow a man to enjoy himself o jare.

Besides . . . we are both not smokers! Oya back to topic.

and you is a maverick!

if he won't cook and clean,are there other things he can do?
Use him in those areas.
My own husband will not wash a plate in the sink or even load the dishwasher but he would do laundry and bathe the kids.

I've been is those tough siuations when it all gets so overwhelming.
Leilah my advise woud be that you cut back
As wives and mothers we tend to do too much and over extend ourselves.

1. Cut back or eliminate  the ballet lessons,cheer leading and other activities the kid is involved in for now

2.make his soups and stew or other meals in large quantities and divide them up in smaller containers and freeze them bringing out how ever much he needs daily fo daily consumption.

3.simple meals like spaghetti and meat balls using store bought sauce and frozen meatballs, mac and cheese from start,marshed potatoes and gravy with steamed veggies for yourself and the little girl if you don't eat naija foods.

4.There's absolutely nothing wrong with feeding the little girl a bowl of cereal and fried eggs for dinner once in a while
when you're too exhausted to cook.
You're not a bad mother if you do.

5.The kitchen is not mopped nightly and the floor is not vaccumed,and so what?
Don't try to do too much,do it when you can and keep your stress level low.

6.Hire a maid once in a while if you can afford it to clean the house,dust and mop.
It's worth it.


I used to be like you.
I did and did and expected my man to pitch in, he tried but that was not him. He relapsed so often, I gave up and devised means to destress myself by simply cutting down on the things I did and paid someone to do the ones I can't.
I even pay a Nigerian caterer once in a while to make me moi moi ,suya and meat pies that'll last a while.
I'm happy,he's happy,the kids are happy.

be careful about live in nannies and au pairs unless they are 65 year old and toothless

how about the stupid girls that marry the married men to become 2nd 3rd and 86th wives

so morenike and david eh kwa?
to God be the glory

if the same muslims are sending her death threats what are we to think?
doesn't Islam advocate death to those that leave it?
must you folks continually attempt to fool your readers?
you can speak the truth for once ms Ayinba.
are these folks doing anything contrary to Islam?


the highlighted happens to be a question

~Sauron~:
Of course.

If the cassava is not processed properly, there's cyanide in it.
Anyone who eats out of the Eba dies without even knowing what he walked into.
People die everyday. Smoking is not the number one MAN KILLER.
Try Mosquitoes.

at least he ate the eba and enjoyed it.
his eating tainted eba will not kill his neighbor
catch my drift?

Ruby_Pearl:
Please, can a modey block this thread?
people just can't embarrass themselves better than this.
aiye le!

lol
they said eating garri can kill
have we heard of passive eba deaths?

dayokanu:
Everything Kills not only smoking. Cocacola or Pepsi kills ask someone who had diabetes. Sex kills. I have seen smokers who lived to the age of 90 and above the former King of Lagos and former Labour leader Pa Imodu were heavy smokers and they lived till close to 100years.

Not ethical? According to whom. Go to any organsation(Not Churches) Most top executives smoke so what is ethical and what is not?

Smoking does not mean anything and its no different from drinking and other vices

as long as I can be an unwilling partaker in your smoking ,I shall campaign against public smoking
when you drink coke and pepsi, ( since to you it's in the same category as smoking) you're not forcing me to drink with you

that will be the end of the marriage.
the man is an idiot and sees his wife as a baby machine that can be inseminated, at will, not a human being with feelings.

timmfikk:
@ Sauron, ^ I will be happy to get your point from the view you are looking at it, are you trying to convince everyone that smoking is okay or what

he has no point as usual

A real menace to soceity.
Don't want it on my bed either

Secondhand smoke, also know as environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), is a mixture of the smoke given off by the burning end of a cigarette, pipe or cigar and the smoke exhaled from the lungs of smokers. It is involuntarily inhaled by nonsmokers, lingers in the air hours after cigarettes have been extinguished and can cause or exacerbate a wide range of adverse health effects, including cancer, respiratory infections, and asthma.1

Secondhand smoke has been classified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a known cause of cancer in humans (Group A carcinogen).2


Secondhand smoke exposure causes disease and premature death in children and adults who do not smoke. Secondhand smoke contains hundreds of chemicals known to be toxic or carcinogenic, including formaldehyde, benzene, vinyl chloride, arsenic ammonia and hydrogen cyanide.3


Secondhand smoke causes approximately 3,400 lung cancer deaths and 22,700-69,600 heart disease deaths in adult nonsmokers in the United States each year.4

Nonsmokers exposed to secondhand smoke at work are at increased risk for adverse health effects. Levels of secondhand smoke in restaurants and bars were found to be 2 to 5 times higher than in residences with smokers and 2 to 6 times higher than in office workplaces.5


Since 1999, 70 percent of the U.S. workforce worked under a smoke-free policy, ranging from 83.9 percent in Utah to 48.7 percent in Nevada.6   Workplace productivity was increased and absenteeism was decreased among former smokers compared with current smokers.7


Nineteen states - Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Washington and Vermont - as well as the District of Columbia prohibit smoking in almost all public places and workplaces, including restaurants and bars. Montana and Utah prohibit smoking in most public places and workplaces, including restaurants; bars will go smokefree in 2009. New Hampshire prohibits smoking in some public places, including all restaurants and bars. Four states - Florida, Idaho, Louisiana and Nevada - prohibit smoking in most public places and workplaces, including restaurants, but exempt stand-alone bars. Fifteen states partially or totally prevent (preempt) local communities from passing smokefree air ordinances stronger than the statewide law. Nebraska and Oregon have passed legislation prohibiting smoking in almost all public places and workplaces, including restaurants and bars, but the laws have not taken effect yet.8


Secondhand smoke is especially harmful to young children. Secondhand smoke is responsible for between 150,000 and 300,000 lower respiratory tract infections in infants and children under 18 months of age, resulting in between 7,500 and 15,000 hospitalizations each year, and causes 430 sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) deaths in the United States annually.9


Secondhand smoke exposure may cause buildup of fluid in the middle ear, resulting in 790,000 physician office visits per year.10  Secondhand smoke can also aggravate symptoms in 400,000 to 1,000,000 children with asthma.11


In the United States, 21 million, or 35 percent of, children live in homes where residents or visitors smoke in the home on a regular basis.12   Approximately 50-75 percent of children in the United States have detectable levels of cotinine, the breakdown product of nicotine in the blood.13


Research indicates that private research conducted by cigarette company Philip Morris in the 1980s showed that secondhand smoke was highly toxic, yet the company suppressed the finding during the next two decades.14


The current Surgeon General’s Report concluded that scientific evidence indicates that there is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Short exposures to secondhand smoke can cause blood platelets to become stickier, damage the lining of blood vessels, decrease coronary flow velocity reserves, and reduce heart rate variability, potentially increasing the risk of heart attack.15

look at Dana Reeves the wife of Christopher Reeves.
The woman never smoked a day in her life but people like HR and Okija juju killed the poor woman
and they're still walking down the street.
