Stating the surname obviously shows you know her, thank you maam.



Am a "small man" o.

Make i use fear believe you. Nonetheless, congrats to your sister, and family.

please how many copies has been sold (digitally and hard cover)?

Blurryface:
Recession been making niggazz marry their grandma just for financial security. The lady is way too older than the boy. But #itsnotmabizness

The kid sister in what question got me thinking. The poster must be old, seen three WW2, the civil war fought in Nigeria and life in general. Good luck to the union.

Men are always victims of public harassment too. Men should speak up.

joanana:
Lalalistica no do ojoro ooo. Post my photos on front page na.. Shey make i put snake first.

Guys get in here @joanana is a simple gorgeous lady. Kudos to your creator, and parents.

Jenny1010:
God abeg pick my call oo


that cake is damn ugly though

Dear remove your hand from your face so that God can answer your call oo. He can use any of the single guys here.

smellingmenses:
only fool.s argue...go and find one like you to argue with you

Give your black brain small sense...

smellingmenses:
what took you so long?

Like i said go somewhere else to play if you cant start an argument.

I shared a video of cabbage production on facebook yesterday. Made from coloured chemicals, it is sicken to watch.

jodeci:
Original KYB shocks for toyota corrola 2010 is 40k
both front and back is 80k.

Where can i purchase the shocks in Lagos?

smellingmenses:
check my DP

Like i should check your DP for what? Is that how to start an argument? Please go somewhere else and play.

Baddo101:
Olodo. Does "Aimakhu" look like yoruba name? Consult Google..

Dude, the last time i checked only an Olodo, can identify a follow Olodo. Pick up your right sense where you left (i don't mean in a beer joint).

smellingmenses:
you don't wanna debate me

Bring it on. Let me school you alittle bit.

Please who read this long novel? I need a summary quickly.

Why is the deputy governor always at the scene of such events. I am truly against jungle justice in Nigeria or anywhere in the world. Putting on my conspiracy cap, if such event happens for the third time, we need to give the deputy governor a Nolloywood award for staging this short drama.

tobe4real:
as in ehh i don't understand it myself,maybe it will be my research project for my phd,its a question begging for answers

. That will definitely make a reasonable and arguable Phd thesis. Nonetheless, don't forget to reference Nairaland in your future research.

smellingmenses:
friend of a thief is also a thief

I differ to agree with your quote. Was Jesus a thief when spreading the gospel to the gentiles? Is like saying, caring and helping a HIV patient makes one a victim too.

Please make an educated argument and stop reasoning like a toddler.

josephine123:
they were not confident enough to kiss or wot?

Children of these days ke. If they give you opportunity to kiss, you will look for avenue for head. .

smellingmenses:
Toyin is also a thief... a very serious thief...

She don steal from you before?

Yoruba Demons and cohorts. In the last picture i tired hard not to believe it is her.

What's with Yoruba people with make-ups and creams?

THE HIDDEN DANGER OF WORN OUT SHOCK ABSORBERS

What is a shock absorber?
Shock absorbers might not be the most exciting part of a car, but along with tyres and brakes they are important elements of the safety of a vehicle. They are hidden beneath a car's wheel arches, so unlike tyres are not easy to check regularly for visible signs of damage and wear.

The role of the shock absorber is to keep the car's tyres in permanent contact with the road, helping to provide optimum grip, when cornering and braking. Shock absorbers are part of the suspension, so if the shocks are worn, the vehicle's ride and comfort is compromised.

The mechanics of a shock absorber all follow the same principle of controlling wheel movement by forcing oil through small holes, with the size or valving of these holes 'tuned' to suit the chosen characteristics of each vehicle type large or small, family saloon, load carrying estate, MPV, 4x4 or high performance sports car.

The dangers of worn shock absorbers
Most people are not even aware of the potential dangers of worn shock absorbers, or that the safety of their vehicle, its occupants and other road users is seriously compromised even if all other safety features are working correctly. An example of the extent of the problem is illustrated by two recent surveys. In Britain, it was found that over 6 million of the 25 million cars on the road had at least one worn shock absorber, while in Belgium, research showed that 20-25% of motorists are driving cars with worn shocks.

Listed below are top ten dangers associated with worn shock absorbers:

Reduced braking efficiency resulting in longer stopping distances
Reduced efficiency of Anti-Lock Braking Systems (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESP)
Increased risk of skidding in the wet
Aquaplaning occurs at lower speeds
Less control when cornering or caught in a cross wind
Increased driver tiredness and reduced speed or response
Increased wear of tyres and other suspension components
Uneven/oscillating headlight level causing dazzle to on-coming drivers
Increased passenger discomfort
Increased risk of 'snaking' when towing

To highlight the danger of driving with worn shock absorbers, Tenneco Automotive - Monroe's parent company Ð has recently conducted a number of comparative tests between vehicles fitted with 50% worn shocks and 100% effective, Monroe Sensa-Trac with Safe-Tech shock absorbers. Having teamed up with TÜV, one of Europe's leading road safety institutes, the first tests showed that a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) such as a Renault Espace with worn shocks can have a braking distance that's up to 4 metres longer than the same vehicle fitted with new shocks.

The second test featuring a new Volkswagen Beetle found that despite being fitted with the latest car safety systems such as Anti-Lock Braking (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (EBS), with worn shocks the vehicle can have a braking distance of up to 6 metres longer than when fitted with new shocks. The final set of tests set out to demonstrate what effect ice and snow would have on a car's anti-lock braking and anti-skid systems, when combined with worn shocks. In the braking test, the results showed that a vehicle such as a Mercedes-Benz C250 Estate fitted with ABS but also with 50% worn shocks, had an emergency braking distance of 1.8 metres longer than the same vehicle fitted with 100% efficient shocks.

The same test conducted on a Peugeot 206 with ABS and 50% worn shocks, took an extra 1.2 metres to stop. The braking test results thereby prove that a car's ABS system does not function properly with worn out shocks. Finally, when comparing a car's acceleration on ice and snow, the tests found that a car such as the Mercedes-Benz C250 fitted with an ASR anti-skid system and 100% efficient shocks accelerated to a speed of 35.6 km/h (22.1 mph) in seven seconds, whereas the same car fitted with 50% worn shocks could only achieve 34.2 km/h (21.2 mph), a 16% improvement for the first vehicle. Furthermore, the time period of lost traction was 37% shorter with 100% efficient shocks compared to 50% worn components.

This test confirms the importance to check that a car's shocks are in good condition, even when fitted with ASR.

The importance of checking your shocks
The performance of a shock absorber deteriorates gradually and imperceptibly over time, during which the driver unwittingly adapts his or her driving to compensate for the wear and worsening condition and handling. As with most parts of a car that are in constant use, shock absorbers are inevitably subject to wear and tear.

Shock absorbers that are showing signs of wear can be recognised by a more accentuated load shift when cornering, poorer handling on uneven road surfaces and generally 'sloppy' suspension. A simple way of testing whether your car's shocks are worn is to carry out the 'bounce test'. If a vehicle oscillates more than once after downward pressure is applied to the bonnet of the car, this could well signify that the car's shocks are worn. Additionally, visual checks for oil leakage and uneven tyre wear can be carried out. Tenneco Automotive recommends that shock absorbers should be checked annually or every 20,000 kms (12,000 miles) by a qualified mechanic. This allows sufficient time to take action to ensure the safety of the driver, their passengers and other motorists is maintained. If the car's shocks do need replacing, it is extremely important that they are replaced in pairs - just like brake pads so that there is an even balance on both sides of the car.

Tenneco Automotive recommends that shock absorbers should be checked annually or every 20,000 kms (12,000 miles) by a qualified mechanic...... Not on Lagos roads. The worst roads in Lagos state are the poor interlocking done in Victoria Island. I dislike driving on those routes. The second car enemies are mechanics in Lagos. I truly miss Abuja and Aba.

Please how much are original Toyota Corolla (2010) shock absorber (Front and rear) and where can it be purchased. Need to replace the front soon.

Productive bro, not productivity. I know it was a typo. You are welcome

@Alhajipablo, i accept the mistake made and really appreciate the correction coming from you. Thanks for understanding.

Talk2Bella:
I didn't date was the word I used

Whats with all this sex (strafe) discussion in the story. thumps up to the Talk2Bella, for finishing from a university. Most people here have not seen the four walls of a university (I mean gaining admission and graduating. I don't mean visiting one). This generation is all about sex and impunity. Abi Dey use sex and scam to curse this generation?. I believe we can all be productivity in our little ways.

I sometimes wonder where ladies get this type of guys from. *Whoop Whoop, kinda jealous*Dj Cuppy shared photos of the surprise gift she got from her footballer boyfriend, Victor Anichebe. She came home to meet the package already waiting for her, when she opened it, she realised they were a pair of Balenciaga race runners.

This gift is coming just few weeks after he got er a GWagon for her birthday. Remember a pair of Balenciaga doesn't come cheap.

"I sometimes wonder where ladies get this type of guys from. *Whoop Whoop, kinda jealous*" ....Is your dad a renowned Nigeria billionaire? If not, try to becomes one.

Guess you didn't have a share of the sex during your time (that is if you have served your great country).

Was he a great cop neva heard of him

The Police HQ in abuja is named after him. Guess he was a great officer. Dont know any of his achievements doh

Ifakiland:
Was wen I told a gal "I love u" and she replied "awwwwww tank u"....I felt like hurting her.

Same thing happened to friend in England. He threw a birthday bash for his girlfriend, it got to time to talk about the girl. Everyone said cool things about (why cant people talk about the bad side ). Now it was my guy's turn to talk, after the whole grammar, showers of blessing on her, he concluded by saying "i Love U" and her reply was "Thank You". To make matter worse the hall was noiseless, one of the guy by the corner busted to an embarrassing laughter.

Till today, my friend has not recovered from that shock. They relationship scattered after a year and both parties are still single.
