ifeness: They both mean the same thing: refuse dump,nothing else!

But so far, hell has mostly been used as a metaphor. Like if you are in a good living condition,you consider it heaven and if opposite,hell. They are both states of mind,no in between.

I dont understand, do you mean they are both states of mind in that they dont exist or your saying Heaven and hell are both at two ends with no purgatory in between?

what i actually need is to know if purgatory and hell is one or if they are different.

ckkris: Just the two sides of a horrible street.

You mean they are the same?

Folks, this a question that has been bothering me. Pls what is the difference between purgatory and hell.

True2myself24: Ummm....I don't know what kind of dysfunctional relationships you've been in but that is not love.

Everyone doesnt have to dumb because your dumb? Am sorry being dumb isnt contagious k.

What does being in love feel like... THE DUMMY EDITION.

It feels like there is a button in front of you that says "press this for free cookies," but every time you press it, a bird sh*t on your head but you keep pressing it anyway and once in every 100 times, you get the cookie. And its the best f**king cookie you've ever had. And while you're eating it, you realize you'll willingly get sh*t on 99 more times in hopes of getting another cookie. Then one day, THE COOKIES STOP COMING

Is this how short ASUU has made your fuse and brains? You forgot that no matter how angry you are with him,it doesnt reduce his mb?If you are very angry you go and be the fourth fish in the sardine.

Alikaxon: 15years and so? What then about who hasn't and has no hope of going to UK 4 his lifetim? Abeg, make him cum back, im papa village nor band am.

Band Really??

1313: If the federal government is sincere in their promise to ASUU, why can't they sign that agreement? Verbal agreement in this country is a deceptive strategy to push this issue aside. Why give them ultimatum when it comes to making your agreement formal and binding? I trust ASUU. Let's wait and see how the drama unfolds.

why should ASUU demand to b paid the salaries of the months they spent on strike. The students has sacrificed lost days of lectures, why cant they bend on some demands to show that they really want to go back to the classroom

Here are the seven most likely reasons your period might be late besides pregnancy ... 1. A Change In Your Regular Routine: Did you start a new job? Change your wakeup time? Go on vacation? It can

take your body a little time to adjust to a change in your regular routine and that can impact your regular cycle, especially if the change started at the time you would normally ovulate, causing a delay or even a skipped cycle.

 

2. Stress: Your emotions, particularly stress, can have a major impact on the regularity of your menstrual cycle. And if you're stressing about why your period is late, that could actually delay its arrival even more. Mother Nature is a cruel mistress!

3. Illness: Being sick at the time you normally would ovulate can delay ovulation — and if you ovulate late, you'll get your period late. So if your period hasn't arrived on schedule, think back a few weeks — were you under the weather?

4. Pill Poppin': Taking a new medication or changing the dosage on an existing medication can affect all aspects of your body's well-being, including your menstrual cycle — that's why your doctor, including your gynecologist, always wants to know each and every medication that you're on.

5. Weight Issues: A major change in your weight — either by gaining a lot or losing a lot of weight — can throw your ovulation cycle off. People who are underweight or extremely overweight sometimes don't have a period at all — which is not very healthy. Overall, an incredibly wonky or nonexistent period is a sign of possible health issues.

6. Exercising Excessively: Have you been hitting Soul Cycle every day after work? Training for a marathon? If you've taken up a new and intense exercise routine, your period might be thrown off. In fact, people who engage in extreme physical activity sometimes see their periods delayed.

7. Miscalculation: The average menstrual cycle is 28 days, but many, many women have shorter or longer cycles and don't chart them correctly — so it may be that your period is not actually late. Additionally, the majority of women have cycles that are irregular and don't necessarily realize it. If your period is early even by a few days one month, it may arrive late the following month.

Pls i dont actually know where to post this.
Is the scarcity of small naira notes like the 20naira,50naira,100naira and 200naira affecting other parts of nigeria or is just here in Port harcourt and Abia state?
The phrase 'you get change?'has become the order of the day. Hardly does someone buy something with 1000naira note that change is readily produced.
Pls are small notes being hoarded or is the CBN delibrately reducing its circulation?

otijah: and u hav to quote the long write up just to bring ur own contribution

The thing tire me oh!!

Olugbenger: Shouldn't you be ashamed that the governor of a single state is giving the GCFR sleepless nights?

Shouldnt you be ashamed that one minister in rivers state is giving Amaechi sleepless nights or were you thinking the status of a minister supercedes that of a governor.

sunstyle: Is like wike is jobless he does not knw hw 2 advise or bring an idea 2 mr president on hw 2 end dis enlongated ASUU Strike. But he knws idea on hw 2 spoil someone's reputation abi

What is wrong with you people. Does the strike now affect your sense of reasoning? Just beause Amaechi said its Wike, You now follow his conclusion. Just beause Amaechi and Wike has issues, any lil thing will be attributed to him.Did it even occur to you that it maybe Amaechi supporters that did that? Stop jumping into conclusions just because a politician said one thing or the other.

nairaman66: GEJ from pillar to post! If I were them I would not attend, if they do.. I am certain not all of them would come back alive.. We all remember the story of ASUU EX President..

Some people can be naive. Was the late ex ASUU Presido coming back from a meeting with the president?

moscobabs: why calling them Rebel?? what they want GEJ to do is to withdraw his 2nd term plan.simple

Do they have such right?

Amya: Don't get it twisted dude. She had a nervous break down. Once! Google it to see what it means. It doesn't make her mad! It doesn't make her insane to be detained in an asylum. All she needs is a psychotherapist to help her with her intense depression. The confinement is only making her matter worse..

People seem not to think of what caused the nervous break down in the first place. Was her life so smooth sailing and she woke up one good morning and had a nervous breakdown? This Man shagged her younger sister so much so that it resulted in pregnancy which she kept! This man is a notorious womanizer that sleeps around that he's known around the Enugu circuit as 'picanto'. He keeps an apartment that she doesn't go to . This man isn't even discreet in his womanizing habit. Is all this not enough to make someone have a nervous breakdown?

He told her to leave and he expects her to leave like a wh.ore that came to spend the night? She isn't trash! She's his wife. If she has to leave the state house, she'll do it with dignity. All she wanted was her freedom to go around as she pleased. She never in anyway said she wanted to end the marriage. Till the marriage ends, she should still have all the perks that are supposed to be accorded her as a Governor's wife.

If you had actually googled nervous breakdown,you would have found out that its not a medical term. You will also find out in the same google that nervous breakdown is associated with mental illness. You should also know that someone who is mentally ill is not supposed to b granted freedom of movement. Am not trying to say that gov sullivan chime's wife is mentally ill but am trying to let you know that before you start posting issues like some kind of medical doctor,you first try the research you advice.

New Delhi, India - Christian Nwaneli stood
outside the Nigerian high commission in New
Delhi, waiting to settle a business dispute
with his Indian business partner.
Nwaneli, a resident of Lagos - Nigeria's most
populous and Africa's second-fastest
growing city - wanted the embassy to help
him retrieve several thousand US dollars his
partner had owed him.
But the Indian partner did not turn up and
instead Nwaneli received a text message
asking him to come to Gurgaon, 30km south
of Delhi, for the money.
"I chose not to go for security reasons ... I
will never come back to India. It's better to
trade with the Chinese," Nwaneli told Al
Jazeera.
Tensions between Nigerians and Indians have
escalated since Nigerian national Obodo
Uzoma Simeon was found dead in Goa, a
popular tourist destination, in the country's
west. Simeon was stabbed to death on
October 31 in Panaji, Goa state's capital.
Goa police were quick to lodge a murder
case, however, the killing led to widespread
protests by Nigerian expatriates,
snowballing into a major law and order
problem.
About 200 angry members of the community
blocked a highway while the body was being
taken for post-mortem examination. Police
brought the situation under control and
registered cases of rioting, arson and
damaging public property against 51 Nigerians
and one national of Ghana.
"Forty people have been arrested and a few
others were detained for their involvement
in rioting and other unlawful activities,"
Kishan Kumar, director general of Goa Police,
told Al Jazeera. "We are committed to serve
people better and will allow no local or
foreigner to take the law into their hands."
'Nigerians a cancer'
For months, Goan police have been
investigating suspected Nigerian links to
drug gangs.
Last week, the Goa government submitted a
report about Simeon's murder to the
Ministry of External Affairs, stating he was
killed because of "infighting between drug-
related gangs," and that a local named
Surender Por had been arrested for murder.
There are only 50,000 Nigerians living in India,
but there are over a million Indians living in
Nigeria. Thousands of Indians living there will
be thrown out on the streets if the
forcible eviction of Nigerians in Goa does not
stop
Jacob Nwadibia, administrative attaché,
Nigerian high commission, New Delhi
"We have received the report. Preliminary
leads indicate infighting between possible
drug-related groups leading to the killing,"
spokesman Syed Akbaruddin told reporters
last week in New Delhi.
Despite the arrest, the diplomatic relations
between Nigeria and India are strained. Some
50,000 Nigerians live in India, while about one
million Indians reside in Nigeria and are
represented significantly in the business
community there.
A degree of xenophobia is sweeping Goa
with some local politicians fuelling the fire
with inflammatory remarks.
Goa's Art and Culture Minister Dayanand
Mandrekar claimed Nigerians were a "cancer,"
and dubbed their actions detrimental to the
tourism industry. That he retracted his
statement later and apologised did little to
undo the damage done.
Signs reading "Say No to Nigerians" have
been placed at several locations in Goa, and
residents of some neighbourhoods have
publicly resolved not to rent out apartments
to Nigerians.
After the rioting, Goa's Chief Minister
Manohar Parrikar ordered police to find and
expel any Nigerians living illegally in the state.
Goan parliamentarian Shantaram Naik was
equally undiplomatic.
"Nigerians misuse education schemes, violate
the Foreign Exchange Management Act
(FEMA), indulge in the drug trade and yet try
to boss over Goans, which no civilised
society would tolerate," said Naik.
'Salt in the wounds'
The intemperate statements evoked angry
responses from Nigerian officials in India.
"Indians need to understand that a large
number of Nigerians are living legally in India
and even if some are living illegally, there are
laws in place to deal with that and those
should be implemented," Nigeria's high
commissioner to India Ndubuisi Vitus Amaku
said.
Nigerians misuse education schemes, violate
the Foreign Exchange Management Act
(FEMA), indulge in the drug trade and yet try
to boss over Goans, which no civilised
society would tolerate
Shantaram Naik, Parliamentarian
"If Nigerians are living illegally [in Goa], you
don't wait till their compatriot is murdered
before you go around picking them up and
threatening them with deportation. That's
like rubbing salt in their wounds."
Jacob Nwadibia, an administrative attaché of
the Nigerian high commission in New Delhi,
went so far as to issue a blunt warning.
"If discrimination against Nigerians was not
stopped immediately, Indians in Nigeria may
face repercussions," Nwadibia said.
"There are only 50,000 Nigerians living in India,
but there are over a million Indians living in
Nigeria. Thousands of Indians living there will
be thrown out on the streets if the
forcible eviction of Nigerians in Goa does not
stop," he said.
Nigeria has become India's largest trading
partner in Africa with bilateral trade doubling
since 2008.
According Indian High Commission in Nigeria,
Indian investment in Nigeria will triple to $10
billion by the end of this year.But mutual
distrust is yet to be bridged as the recent
events in Goa show.
"The discrimination is apparent and we just
want that it should end and the law should
take its own course," Tokunbo Falohun, a
spokesman for the Nigerian embassy in New
Delhi, told Al Jazeera.
The Indian community in Nigeria is also
nervous in the aftermath of the Goa
incident. Indians have started circulating
external affairs ministry contacts for
anyone facing harassment or other problems.
"A sort of paranoia has started to creep in
after the incident in India, but things are
fine as of now," Radhika Mehra, who lives in
Lagos with her family, told Al Jazeera.
Strengthening stereotypes
Back in New Delhi, Nigerians and nationals of
other African countries already only live in
specific pockets in the city where they feel
relatively safe.
"I face racism on daily basis," said Fortuna
Mayala, 23, who is pursuing a bachelor's
degree in Information Technology from
Mahatma Gandhi University.
"Indians think black people are evil, that they
are the devil, as if we are monkeys from
some strange planet. It is hard to get
rented accommodation for us in the capital."
Mayala, who is from the Democratic Republic
of Congo, added that he has not made any
Indian friends during his one-year stay in the
city.
That some Nigerians have been involved in
crime has strengthened the stereotypes
against them, and honest, hard-working
people such as Nwaneli, the businessman,
have paid the price.
Unable to settle the dispute with his Indian
partner, and with no desire to stay in India
any longer, he said: “I am frustrated here.
India needs to change."

Dominion City is the church for you. Its not because of your listed criteria but because if you step into the church,u wont have a list any more.

Everything about Britain is racist..

your so on point!!!

The violin played by the bandmaster of the
Titanic to calm passengers as it sank has
sold at auction for $1.45m, a world record
fee for memorabilia from the doomed liner.
The instrument belonging to Wallace Hartley
was found strapped to his body after he
drowned with his seven bandmates and
some 1,500 others on board the supposedly
unsinkable ship in 1912.
It was sold on Saturday to a British collector
after a feverish 10-minute battle between
telephone bidders at Titanic specialist
auctioneers Henry Aldridge and Son in
Devizes, southwest England.
The instrument carries an inscription from
the 33-year-old's fiancee Maria Robinson to
mark their engagement and was sold with
its leather luggage case, initialled WHH, in
which it was found.
For decades the violin was believed lost but
it was found in the attic of a house in
northwest England in 2006, prompting a
debate about its authenticity, which experts
only recently resolved.
"We're absolutely overjoyed," Christine
Aldridge, a spokeswoman for the auction
house, told the AFP news agency.
"It was sold to a UK collector who was
bidding by telephone. The whole sale only
took about 10 minutes."
She said the final price including premiums
paid to the auction house was $1,697,426.
Play on
Hartley's band played the hymn "Nearer, My
God, to Thee" to try to calm passengers
while they climbed into lifeboats as the
Titanic sank beneath the icy waves in the
North Atlantic on April 15, 1912, after hitting
an iceberg.
Hartley and his seven fellow band members
all died after choosing to play on.
Bidding started at just $80 for the violin,
with principal auctioneer Alan Aldridge
joking that he was setting the price so low
so that two of his friends could bid.
But within a few minutes it had passed the
previous world record of $355,641 for a
Titanic piece as competition between four
telephone bidders intensified.
There were gasps from the 200 people at
the auction house as the price reached
$565,792 and then a tense silence as the
battle for the instrument narrowed to two
telephone bidders.
It had a reserve price of $323,310 to
$484,965.

Britain is turning to a racist country starting from there leaders.

The British government has told almost
40,000 people by text message that they
may be illegal immigrants, but officials have
admitted that some legal residents were
targeted.
"Message from the Home Office. Our records
show that you may not have leave to
remain in the UK. Please contact us to
discuss your case," the message said.
A spokesman for the Home Office, which is
responsible for immigration in the UK, said
the texts had been sent to 39,100 people
between September 2012 and June 2013.
It is more than just incompetence. It is racist
stereotyping.
Bobby Chan, immigration case worker
Similar messages were also sent out via
email and by post to contact individuals
who had no right to be in Britain, he said.
But some were received by legal residents,
including the anti-racism campaigner,
Suresh Grover, who said he was "absolutely
shocked and quite horrified".
"I came here with my parents in 1966, I was
born in East Africa and have always had a
British passport," he said.
Bobby Chan, an immigration adviser, said
he had also received a text despite having
lived in Britain since 1973.
"It is more than just incompetence, he told
Al Jazeera. "It is the racist stereotyping of
the Chinese community."
The Home Office spokesman said the
private contractor responsible for the text
campaign had acknowleged 14 texts were
sent in error, "a tiny, miniscule number".
The opposition Labour party condemned
the campaign as a "gimmick" that risked
offending and alienating its own citizens.
'Showing them the door'
It recalled a similar Home Office campaign in
July in which posters were displayed in
London asking: "In the UK illegally? Go home
or face arrest."
The posters were criticised as "stupid and
offensive" by the business secretary Vince
Cable, a Liberal Democrat member of Prime
Minister David Cameron's Conservative-led
coalition government.
But days after that campaign was launched,
British authorities rounded up scores of
"immigrant offenders" in a nationwide
operation condemned as racist.
The Home Office was widely criticised for
the spot-checks of hundreds of people at
stations and on streets in areas including
London, Durham, Manchester, Wales and
Somerset that lead to the arrest of 139
people.
Witnesses said that the spot checks
deliberately targeted ethnic minorities and
non-white people.
