Romance / 5 Reasons She Isn’t Happy. by Rave91: 2:08pm On Sep 11, 2016
When was the last time you and your wife laughed together? Hopefully the answer is today or yesterday, but if it’s been awhile, don’t lose hope. You may be frustrated because your wife hasn’t been very happy lately. Maybe she’s stressed out about the kids or work. Or maybe she seems happy with her friends, but with you, she’s cold and distant. You get the feeling she’s displeased with your marriage and you’re not sure what to do.

The five reasons your wife may not be happy are:

Reason Number 1: The marriage lacks leadership. Your wife wants to look to you for strength and confidence. If you’re not sure what to do with your difficult teen or your mounting debt, don’t wait for your wife to do something. Take initiative to solve the problems facing your family. Read books. Take courses. Ask others for advice. Let household responsibilities fall squarely on your shoulders. Don’t pass the buck. Show your wife strength.

Reason Number 2: Your wife feels hopeless. She wants the closeness and intimacy that you once had, but she doesn’t feel like anything will change. She doesn’t have hope that your marriage will improve or get sweeter. She is skeptical about making any efforts to improve the marriage because she’s afraid of disappointment. No matter what she does, nothing seems to work. Why not surprise her this week by an unexpected act of kindness that will fan hope in her life? Pick up a marriage book that you can read together to grow together in hope. Read Scripture about gladness and hope, and pray together.

Romance / 3 Reasons Why Some Men Can’t Stay Hard With Condoms by Rave91: 11:28pm On Oct 07, 2015
If you’re one of them, don’t be afraid because there are many men who also experience this problem.

In fact, some people cannot have intercourse at all because, the man puts on the condom, his erection disappears and its ‘sex-over’ for them.

This can be very frustrating because the need to wear a condom cannot be overemphasized, unless one wants to be the next victim of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) or deal with unwanted pregnancies.

Health / You Throw Away The Eggshells? After Reading This, You Will Never Do It Again! by Rave91: 11:33am On Oct 05, 2015
Calcium is essential for our bodies, as it regulates function of muscles and nerves, regulated heart rate, helps in formation of bone tissue, prevents osteoporosis and provides a good night’s sleep. Calcium also gives a healthy shine to your hair and strengthens immunity.
Sedentary lifestyle, alcohol, soft drinks and coffee drain calcium from tissues. Women in menopause, pregnant women and older men are the groups that mostly struggle with calcium deficiency. Maintain proper calcium levels for optimal function of your body.

A single eggshell is 90% calcium, and it is an amazing source of minerals. Chemical composition of eggshells is pretty similar to that of our teeth and bones, which is why it is easily absorbed in the body.

Regular consumption of eggshells decreases blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and stimulates bone marrow to produce blood cells.

Eggshells are rich in copper, iron, molybdenum, fluorine, zinc, chromium, phosphorus, and manganese. Experts recommend consuming 1.5-3 grams of crushed eggshells.

Here are a few interesting ideas on how to use eggshells:-

Thyroid gland: Wash and clean 8 eggshells. Crush them once they have completely dried. Pour in the juice of 2 lemons and leave the mixture in the fridge for a few days. The eggshells will soak the liquid and soften. Strain the liquid and add in 2 pounds of honey and a liter of 50% alcohol. Let it rest for a week before using it. Take a tablespoon of the remedy 2-4 times a day after your meals.

Gastritis and ulcer: With the tip of your knife take some of the crushed eggshells and stir them in two tablespoons of lemon juice. That amount is just enough. Once the eggshells soften, pour in a deciliter of hot milk. Consume the mixture twice a day, in the morning before you eat or drink anything and before you go to bed.
Cleanse your blood and strengthen your body: Rinse 5 eggshells and crush them wall. Pour in 3 liters of water. Keep the liquid in your fridge for a week and drink it as your regular water. Drink 2-3 cups a day. If you prefer, you can also add some lemon juice to it.

Nairaland / General / Nigerian Banks, In What Way Have We Offended You? by Rave91: 11:06am On Oct 05, 2015
The banking sector is the pivot of any economy. An ideal commercial bank must operate smoothly, efficiently, transparently and promptly.
The relationship of any bank with its customers is very crucial. However, it seems that many banks are hell-bent on frustrating their customers. Many Nigerians are dissatisfied with the activities of the various banks. The reasons for this are plain to see. From the banking halls to customer service delivery, everyone has a story to tell.
I find it highly amusing that a bank that cannot trust you with their N30 ballpoint pens would want you to entrust it with your life savings. They use rubber bands or strings to secure their treasured pens to the counter. What is wrong if your customers cart your pens away? How much could you possibly spend on pens that would dent your account in any way? Is it as much as what you deduct from people’s accounts in the name of bank charges?
If a bank cannot afford to lose its pens, my humble opinion is that it should downgrade to a cooperative, community or microfinance bank immediately. Shioooooor!
It is in this insane manner that some banks ration their air conditioning, with the units placed strategically close to the manager as if they are vaults. Many of them ration their disposable cups. If your bank falls into this category, it should be renamed Ijebu Community bank.
There are some bank branches that look kind of funny. I am yet to ascertain if this is unintentional or deliberate. I know of a structure that bears a bank signpost on Moloney Street, Lagos Island, but when you venture inside you get confused. You begin to wonder if it is indeed a bank or a post office. My suspicions that something was wrong with that bank were confirmed when they could not cash a cheque that I took there. So much for being a new generation bank.
Another cause for concern are the tattered flags displayed in front of these banks. I have no problem if a bank wants to use a rag as its flag; after all, their operations are really trashy. I consider it criminally offensive when the National Flag is in tatters, or at half-mast. Kilode?
There are some banking halls that depict pure, unadulterated chaos. You see queues like BRT queues right inside the bank. You expect that this condition would spur the tellers to work faster, but na lie. They would still work as slowly as ever, as if they are using the abacus to add and subtract. This is very bad.
There is another thing that I have come to notice about banks and I am always tempted to ask the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) if this is one of their policies. If you know you are a banker and you’re reading this, please give me the reason before I ask CBN. You will never see all the teller cubicles filled. If a bank has cubicles for 5 tellers, only 3 will be functional. The same thing goes for their automated teller machines (ATMs).
In the Gospel according to Nigerian banks, it is an aberration for all their ATMs to be working at the same time. If one dispenses cash, the other will be swallowing cards. I know that machines could malfunction once in a while but something is terribly wrong when you refuse to fix them. Worse still is when you know these machines are malfunctioning and you fail to notify the public by way of a notice.
Another despicable thing about Nigerian banks is that they pay their security staff peanuts. That is why many of them have resorted to the “anything for the boys?” approach. It is highly unfair. It is tantamount to keeping someone in the kitchen and expecting that person to be satisfied with just the aroma of all the sumptuous dishes. Use your church mind, abeg!
Another thing that puts me off about Nigerian banks is the arrogance of some bank staff. If you are not Aliko Dangote’s cousin or M.K.O Abiola’s younger sister, they would be reluctant to attend to your complaint. They would treat your case at snail’s pace or might even ignore it altogether.
Here is a note of warning to you and your likes. I am not a fan of banking halls, neither do I believe that I deserve to have my time wasted by people like you. If I happen to visit your customer care desk and you misbehave, I will either send a mail to your Head Office, tweet at your bank or post on your bank’s Facebook page. If I am really angry, I will do all three. This works every time. You will only get a query, and your manager would promise me better service. Problem solved.
There is a bank that is highly discriminatory to short customers. I am sure that they would be equally discriminatory to short job applicants, judging from the height of the counters. This is very unfair. Anytime I’m wearing flat-soled shoes, I have to tiptoe to reach the counter. I still consider myself fortunate. I once saw a man that literally had to be carried because he wanted to fill a ledger. Sheer wickedness!
We know the meaning of the name of your bank but your architect did not have to take it too literally. Your aspirations and operations should be lofty, not everything inside your bank. I will not be too surprised if your vault is located on your roof.
Now to automated banking. When CBN introduced the “cashless policy”, they didn’t mean that you should take it literally. A great number of ATMs are cashless – they don’t dispense cash, but they would tell you your account balance. If you are not ready to go cashless as CBN directed, please let us know.
Another thing I’ve found rather annoying is that many ATMs would ask you if you want a receipt for the transaction when they know that they haven’t issued receipts in three years. If supplying receipts is too expensive for you as a bank, kindly submit yourself to CBN for probe and prompt liquidation.
I also feel that some ATM messages are quite uncalled for. How can you insert your card and the machine would tell you that your financial institution is unavailable? I feel that message should only apply to those with Oceanic bank cards, or probably Heritage bank.
Another reason why people distrust Nigerian banks is because these days, they act like magicians. There is nothing like interest anymore. Bank charges have replaced interest. We get all manner of charges – COT, ATM and SMS. How much do text messages cost? Some networks even offer them for free but these yeye banks would charge a bogus amount for text messages that you did not receive. No bank sent me any Sallah message, neither have I received alerts for money received. Any bank wey go deduct my money over text messages go hear am.
When I was much younger, I was taught that one of the functions of a bank was to remove dirty notes from circulation and replace them with crisp, new notes. It’s either my teacher was lying, or the minting machines have broken down. I think that these banks trade all the new notes to vendors, and then pay customers with dirty, smelling and mutilated notes. These filthy, microbial culture Naira notes have even found their way into the ATMs. What a shame!
In this piece, I have been referring to the new generation banks. I tactically avoided the old generation banks because if I should start talking, I won’t stop. Imagine a bank whose first new advert in about 50 years is to gloat about being the president’s bank. Pathetic!
At this juncture, I would want to say something that affects many bank customers. When someone makes a transaction at an ATM and is debited without receiving due payment, please revert the transaction immediately. The same goes for POS terminals, bikonu, jowo, dan Allah. Many people have lostb money this way because they have been unable to follow through with the hassles of going to the bank to make a ormal complaint.
Another thing you should think of doing is reconfiguring ATMs not to swallow cards. So many relationships and potential relationships have been ruined this way. Imagine a guy taking his babe out on a Friday night and an ATM machine swallows his card. He’s in a dilemma. He eventually tells his babe and she ‘yimus’. How demoralizing.
To compound issues, by Monday his card would have been promptly destroyed. The guy has no choice but to pay for another card even though the bank is solely to blame.
Nigerian banks need to change. Many of them are the reasons why many market women still keep money in their bras. Nigerian banks, abeg fear God and fear CBN.
