God save us from foolish scientists.
You seem not to understand.
There's something happening in the world called global warming. This global warming is causing frozen places in the world to melt...the solid frozen areas (such as permafrost) gradually become liquid and flow into rivers and ultimately into the oceans. Some of these permafrosts have been in existence for hundreds and thousands of years and are known to harbour dangerous organisms and viruses.
Scientists are merely trying to work ahead of time to identify these dangerous organisms in the permafrosts so that mankind can better prepare for war with these organisms whenever they begin to spread and cause havoc due to the melting of the permafrosts.
These scientists are actually risking their lives doing this. They actually deserve accolades.
Mankind must get prepared for battle on many fronts

FamilyCryopreservation Breakthrough: Twins Born From Embryos Frozen 30 Years Ago by REALretep(op): 6:00am On Nov 28, 2022
Lydia Ann and Timothy Ronald Ridgeway were born on 31 October 2022
By Sam Cabral
BBC News


Twin babies have been born to an Oregon couple from embryos frozen more than 30 years ago.

It is believed to be a new record for the longest-frozen embryos ever to result in a successful live birth.

They were stored at around -196C (-323F) in liquid nitrogen on 22 April 1992.

Rachel Ridgeway, a mother of four from Oregon, gave birth to the twins on 31 October. The father, Philip Ridgeway, said it was "mind-boggling".

Lydia Ann and Timothy Ronald Ridgeway likely set a new record, according to the National Embryo Donation Center (NEDC), a private faith-based organisation that says it has helped birth more than 1,200 infants from donated embryos.


NEDC's previous record-holder, Molly Gibson, was born in 2020 from an embryo that had been frozen for nearly 27 years.

The Americans who 'adopt' other people's embryos
"The decision... to adopt these embryos should reassure patients who wonder if anyone would be willing to adopt the embryos that they created 5, 10, 20 years ago," said Dr John David Gordon, who performed the embryo transfer.

"That answer is a resounding yes!"


The twin embryos had been created for an anonymous married couple using IVF. The man was in his 50s and reportedly relied on a 34-year-old egg donor.

They were kept in storage at a fertility lab on the US west coast until 2007 when the couple donated them to the NEDC in Knoxville, Tennessee for another couple to use them instead.

Embryologists at the NEDC's partner clinic Southeastern Fertility then performed the thaw and transfer to the uterus earlier this year.

In a statement, the NEDC said it hoped the news would "encourage others to experience the blessings of embryo adoption for themselves".

It is the first child the Ridgeways - who have four other children between the ages of one and eight - have had via IVF or donors.

"I was five years old when God gave life to Lydia and Timothy, and he's been preserving that life ever since," Philip Ridgeway told CNN from the family's home.

"In a sense, they're our oldest children, even though they're our smallest children."

"There is something mind-boggling about it," he added.

RomanceRe: Can I Get Married To Her Now Or It’s Too Early? by REALretep(m): 11:46am On Nov 13, 2022
humility101:
I met this lovely lady (30 yo) online 2 months ago. She is in Nigeria and I’m in the Uk. We have been actively chatting, phoning and having lots of facetime. She’s got all they qualities I need in a wife. She has also gone to see my peeps once and they said nice things about her.

I’m planning on wedding her this Christmas and she can join me immediately (UK can be very lonely without a partner) on a dependent visa.

But sometimes I pause and ask myself, I hope I’m not rushing this whole thing? I hope she is not pretending to be nice? I hope she truly loves me? I hope she is not seeing me as a means to japa? A lot of questions going through my mind. This is marriage and I don’t wanna make mistakes.

Advice me please.
You are obviously above 30 and want to get married as soon as possible because of the loneliness you feel. The points bolded above are very valid and you must get answers to them before getting married.

Bro... don't marry until you have cleared all your doubts. Getting married while still having doubts about the lady is not good for marriage as you can easily misinterprete little harmless things she does and thus cause harm to your marriage.

In summary, don't rush. Don't allow anyone or even your feelings to rush you. Marriage is a lifetime commitment that can make or mar you. Take your time in getting to know her until your gut feeling/instincts give you a thumbs up to go ahead to wife her.
God can help you too...ask Him to help you

This story only seems plausible to me if the boy goes to the women following their exhaustion from farm work.

Nairaland GeneralAmbition And Selfishness In Leaders: A Perspective by REALretep(op): 11:22am On Nov 10, 2022
The other day I was thinking randomly about the relationship between leadership, power, justice, fairness, ambition, and selfishness.

After the whole period of thinking and meditating, I came up with the following.

Tell me your thoughts about them and do add your points.

Thank you

1. Leaders, just like humans, are selfish
2. Leaders, just like humans, are either selfishly ambitious or selfishly unambitious
3. Selfishly unambitious leaders do not act with enthusiasm. They treat most matters with levity and are generally considered weak leaders
4. Selfishly ambitious leaders act with positive enthusiasm on matters that move them nearer to their ambitions and negative enthusiasm on matters that drag them farther away from their ambitions. They are generally considered strong leaders
5. Selfishly unambitious/weak leaders consciously or unconsciously cede most of their powers to individuals around them
6. Selfishly ambitious/strong leaders retain and directly exercise most of their powers
7. Selfishly unambitious/weak leaders become bad leaders if the actions of the individuals they have ceded power to do not meet the expectations and serve the interests of people
8. Selfishly ambitious/strong leaders become bad leaders if their actions, fueled by their ambitions, do not meet the expectations and serve the interests of people
9. Selfishly unambitious/weak leaders become good leaders when the actions of the individuals they have ceded power to meet the expectations and serve the interests of people
10. Selfishly ambitious/strong leaders become good leaders if their actions, fueled by their ambitions, meet the expectations and serve the interests of people
11. The actions of these leaders are generally modulated by their likes, desires, passions, cares, worries and fears.
12. Leaders, just like humans, can become ambitious, change their ambitions or even totally jettison their ambitions at any time

OP I wish you nothing but success sha. I pray make this one end well for you because a typical 9ja girl of 18-24yrs has little or nothing to offer aside their toto. This one fit dey different sha, but I no go take risk because most young girls nowadays get very young(immature) brain. In those days our grandmothers dey marry at 15-18yrs and dem fit take care of the home, but now E no be like that again.
The only advantage you get be say her toto never see perilous times like those wey dey above 25yrs. But in a nutshell sha, I wish you luck though marrying a 21yrs old 9ja girl be like 5odd gambling for bet9ja.


I don talk am before and I go talk am again, "Instead of you to go do yahoo, Oga go learn programming and thank me later"
It's one thing to get married and another thing to raise a family based on your values.
A man that seeks to raise a family based on his defined values won't be talking about what a woman brings to the table [I bolded the particular statement above]. He will rather be focused on the personal values of the girl, if her values align with his, and if she can be influenced to pick up his values.
Raising children becomes much easier and less stressful when daddy and mummy are on the same page.
If, as a man that hopes to be a husband and a daddy someday, and you don't consider values when getting married, chances are high that your marital journey will be real bumpy

How could a drug baron like this be allowed to become a governor and senator?
He still thinks that with his ill-gotten wealth, he will make it to the presidency.

This is disgusting and demeaning.
A confirmed drug lord can never earn my respect as president. God forbid

So even Buhari, with all this information in public space will happily hand power over to this narcotics merchant.

They tried to deceive us before with the letter from the US embassy absolving Tinubu of any arrests or conviction but it has become clear that he used "Bola Tinubu" then as against "Bola Ahmed Tinubu" he now uses. Truth can never be hidden for long. It must surely be revealed, no matter how long it takes.
