It's only here I read training practice with a coach is better than actual playing time. My eyes have seen my ears.

Selection! Selection! Selection!.

That's the bane of Nigerian coaches and sadly Coach Omagbemi is not getting her selection right.

Faith Ikidi is the weakest link in our defence and this has been obvious from the first game. She gets beaten easily, lacks pace and is easily outrun. I wonder how badly she'll play before she's relegated to the bench.

Sadly, Coach Omagbemi has stuck with her till the semis so she'll definitely start the finals despite Ngozi Ebere being better. Reminds me of how Keshi stubbornly stuck with Chigozie Agbim despite his obvious shortcomings and flaws.

Nigerian Coaches are a special breed, I tell ya undecided

These Nigerian Falcon team gives me the impression that Nigerian women are selfish. They can't play for each other. Haba!
Not Nigerian women, just this team. Too much unseriousness, showboating and selfish play.

I have never seen someone play so lackadaisically in all my years of watching football.

@ damiosy,

I need a used but clean, pristine and faultless/no issues mid-spec laptop for my kid bro who just secured admission.

Specs are:

* Intel Core i3 preferably but might settle for a less powerful processor
* 4gb ram
* 500gb preferably but might settle for 320gb
* 14" preferably but might settle for a sleek 15.6"
* DVD rom
* Good battery life

Quote me if you've got something that ticks all the boxes.

I've got lots of important stuff on the External HDD so it's important I access it to copy my files I use a windows 8 OS and I've tried it on other PCs running Windows 7 & Vista, and it's still the same thing.

. . .and it was so easy. I installed Partition Manager, launched it, saw the external hard drive, I assigned a drive letter, formatted it as NTFS and voila, my Western Digital 1Tb External Hard Disk Drive came back to life.

I got another WD 1TB ext Hard drive as replacement then so now I have two 1TB Ext HDDs. Good thing I kept it and didn't throw it away smiley. ***Big Lesson***

TheGoodJoe:

That positioning comes from his playing style. Akpeyi is good with his feet, so he stays close to the defenders to make him available for passes.

Although I feel we need a more solid keeper. Glad to hear Akpan the Cat Udoh is still doing well. Alampasu is my pick.

However, Akpeyi made some good contributions today.
If you believe this, then you clearly haven't watched him enough.

Daniel Akpeyi. . .bad positioning, panicky and poor reflexes. A terrible goal keeper (An opinion formed over the years watching him play for Chippa United, the Olympic team and Super Eagles).

Rohr should do away with him and have Dele Alampasu and Akpan Udoh understudy Carl Ikeme.

That's the issue, ADM is not grabbing it. . .and downloading with the browsers is too slow. I have tried chrome and UC browser.

Indignation (2016) - Best dialogue I've heard in a movie in a long while. 8.5/10

War Dogs (2016) - Similar storyline to Lord of War but more humorous. 8/10.

Mechanic Resurrection (2016) - Weak on plot & dialogue but non stop action 4.5/10.

@ computerboy, has battery life improved significantly on Windows 10 with the Anniversary update?
Computers › Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by semid4lyfe(m): 11:29am On Nov 02, 2016
computerboy:
Yes. The OS embedded with updates. You can use it for clean install (formatting) as well
Not for me. Apart from the poor battery life, my Windows 10 is perfect and backing up up my files, doing a clean OS installation and reinstalling all the applications na big hassle.

I wish there were service packs to update Windows 10 offline just like there was for previous OSes cos battery life on Windows 10 has improved with the incremental updates.

Is it the OS itself with embedded updates or an update package that one can install on an installed Windows 10 OS?

You have autorun.inf in the hard drive. Just set your file manager to show hidden files. You'll see it then delete it
Thanks, this worked albeit with some modifications.

autorun.inf was not visible even after ticking the show hidden files checkbox in file explorer so I installed UltraISO, navigated via UltraISO to my External Hard Drive (Local Disk G) and deleted the autorun.inf.

My Western Digital External Hard Drive is showing as Local Disk instead of a Removable Drive. This began 2 days ago.

The external hard drive is assessible, working fine and the files inside are opening. It also ejects normally and is easily detected by the TV when plugged in via USB.

My only worry is its appearance as Local Disk and it's inability to be renamed as it reverts back to Local Disk immediately. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I chatted with Pattybf on Tuesday around 6.40am and contracted her to do my Vehicle Registration. She came to my place that same morning to pick the documents she required and promised to deliver on Friday.

I was pleasantly surprised when she buzzed me yesterday to say the job is almost done and she'll be delivering today. True to her word, she delivered around 3.30pm today, a day ahead of schedule.

Everything has been checked and is in order. Thanks Pattybf.

First to comment on Episode 10. Yaay! grin

Hmm, the most jessica-centric episode of the season so far. Good use of flashback to get us into her mind, show us her motivations and why she takes certain decisions in this episode. Not sure but it seems she's been written off the series. . . .

Good courtroom drama too but I feel she trapped Mr Forrest too easily.

Quote of the episode is Mike's question to Jessica - "I'm asking if you've seen the movie, A Few Good Men"? cool

Let me stop here before I ruin the viewing experience of others.


All in all, sweet, poignant episode.
