bakenda: Do you mean you have a column that contains comma separated values of username[b]s[/b]?!
To start with, that's a bad design, you should have a separate table that stores the friendship relationship,
i.e friends table with columns id,username,friend...something like that...

pauladonis: amoled indeed, do u know d fone as much as I think u do

Dontripsy: one advantage that samsung, htc and other high-end phones will continue to have over TECNO is the fact they are not stuck with one OS version i.e they are upgradeable. And that for me is a huge one. NO ONE WANTS TO SPEND 30K ON A PHONE THAT BECOMES ''OUTDATED'' WITHIN A FEW WEEKS OF PURCHASE!

cybermaven: Hi. Although Airtel has low rates, their network is poor in some areas. Watch your network bar for a day or two. If it's constantly at level 1 or 2, then you may want to look for an alternative network.
I had this same issue. Ditched it within a week because the network was only superfast at my church - and I'm there just twice a week.
If I get to relocate I'll pick the SIM up again.
Just a recommendation, you could try MTN nite plan.
=N=2,500 per month.
3GB + 1.5GB = 4.5GB
You can use the 1.5GB any time of the day. Once it's exhausted the 3GB is then used at nite. Leftover data can be added to your next subscr.
Thankfully, I'm on Pulse so I get free weekly 10MB and daily 5MB for =N=5

mr.drizzy:
i got anoda info that the f7 is 6.1" oh!

papooze4: tecno F7 with 1gb ram,hehehehehen ok o.make we dey look o

mr.drizzy:
hmm i believe ur a freshman into the new tech ways!,anyway jelly bean is the latest android os upgrade,from froyo,to gingerbread the ice cream sandwich and den dis new one jellybean,jst like how windows 7 has new upgrade to windows 8 ,hope u grab

sam4xadams: The longest thread in nairaland is tecno N3 thread still counting 17o+ I bet this thread go reach am. I anywhere I sold my galaxy y pro duos to get this n3. The n7 is nice too

papooze4: sorry dat Q1 is 14,500#.... d second buildin just opposite microstation,

bukahands: N7 but Q1 has qwerty incase dats ur thing

BizBloke: I can't say sha but Q1 runs 4.0. Goes for N16,000

Ogundale: There are three ways to program a PIC microcontroller
Using normal programming hardware (high volt programming HVP).
Low volt programming (LVP).
Bootloading.
The first two methods use the programming port of the PIC microcontroller labeled ICSP (In Circuit Serial Programming).
This port is shared between the existing pins of the microcontroller and after programming the pins revert back to normal microcontroller operation.
Note: To make ICSP work correctly you have to consider the effects and requirements of the ICSP programmer e.g. for HVP a high voltage exists at the Vpp pin (your circuit must be able to handle the high voltage - up to 13V). Also the loading for the other signals PGC and PGD must not be too high i.e. don't put an LED on these pins that uses 20mA - if you did the voltage levels would not be high enough at the inputs to the PIC for programming.
It's fairly easy to design for ICSP use by using isolation resistors to normal circuitry and choosing not to use heavy loads on these pins.
ICSP provides 6 connections from the pic ICSP programmer to your board as follows :
VPP - (or MCLRn) Programming voltage (usually 13V).
Vcc - Power (usually 5V).
GND Ground (zero volts).
PGD - Data usual port and connection RB7.
PGC - Clock usual port and connection RB6.
PGM - LVP enable usual port and connection RB3/RB4.
PIC Micro: High Volt Programming
To use the first method a hardware interface is needed or 'PIC programmer' to interface between the programming software (usually running on the PC) and the PIC chip. This hardware takes its information from the PC via one of three interfaces either:
The RS232 COM port
The Parallel port
The USB port
You choose the interface you want to use and then choose an appropriate PIC programmer. The PC then communicates with the hardware generating the serial (ICSP) signals to translate the PIC hex file into a serial data stream suitable for the target microcontroller.
Note: Almost all PIC microcontrollers use the ICSP interface so once you have a HVP you can program virtually any PIC microcontroller. e.g. you can program 12F675, 16F84, 16F88, 16F877(A), 18F2550, 18F452 etc.
There are several programs for programming PIC micos e.g. ICPROG and many different hardware programmers.
PIC Micro: Low volt programming (LVP)
LVP is exactly the same as HVP except:
The Vpp voltage is set to the normal supply voltage.
The PGM pin indicates programming mode.
Note: In this mode you can not use the PGM pin for anything else it is dedicated solely to LVP control.
Devices are manufactured with PGM mode enabled and the only way to turn off the PGM mode is to program it using an HVP programmer.
Note: Some PIC microcontrollers can only use the HVP method since for the LVP method you have to sacrifice one pin - PGM - (to tell the PIC Micro either that it is being programmed (high volts e.g. 5V) or that it is not being programmed (0V) ) and some PIC micros only have 8 pins e.g. 12F675. For this chip the PGM pin is not available so HVP is the only way.
The real benefit of using the LVP mode is that you can program several PIC Micros on a board without having to individually program each one - you could daisy chain each extra micro to a master micro which would then program each one in turn - and this is only possible since the Vpp signal is a normal logic level in LVP mode.
PIC Micro: Bootloading
Bootloading uses any available interface to load a program into program memory. It requires a bootstrap program to interpret the interface data and translate it into program memory instructions.
Note: Note only the newer devices that are capable of programming their own memory can use this method.
Typically a serial port is used for bootloading and the PIC micro bootstrap program will wait for a set time after power up listening on the serial port for a reserved word that tells the bootstrap program to start i.e. it listens for sequence of characters that is not normally used on the interface
Once it receives this sequence it enters bootstrap mode where a hex file is transmitted to the microcontroller over the interface. It interprets this and programs the memory of the microcontroller and then starts the program.
There are two issues with this method:
You have to program the bootstrap code using HVP or LVP.
It uses up some of the microcontroller resources.
Once programed it provides a convenient way of using the device as you won't need programming hardware anymore and one major benefit is that you can re-program a device without undoing the equipment e.g. if you boxed up you project you could still re-program it using the serial port!

Olyboy16: Hello people, my name's "my name" and i hope i'l find a fellow java frat here.

Gooci: IS DS REAlly true?? i de plan go buy ooooo.... i beg gv a bit of description... tanx

Iykeponti: Even if u add Russians,France & Germany still not enough to win USA...... :p American has everything dats y they ll never-never allow con3 from Arab world to obtain nuclear weapon ,never! As 4north Korea ,they should learn from Japan...

CFCfan: The situation in the Korean Peninsula is getting so tense; I just hop that common sense prevails amongst the key actors there.

The North Koreans will surely be risking a nuclear holocaust of its own populace, if the Pyongyang regime decides to attack either the US or South Korea.

I don't think either China or Russia would be able to come to their aid, once the US retaliates.

oboh c: who told you that china will be alone. the world is already polarised between NATO and the shanghai pact. I must tell you the Shanghai pact whichh is made up of cina/russia their allies which also comprises of the arab world, did i say india, pakistan etc, plus north africa. I guess CNN, BBC wont tell you all this. apart from the shit they feed you with about the west.

solomon111: I hope the US knows what they are doing in this war they are provoking.
Russia and china will not support them.
And if their actions threaten russian interests,they would have incurred the wrath of the second most powerful military on earth.
I pity ignorant american citizens,this is going to be more than they bargained for.
