I believe she's not a brainwashed African woman. So she had options.

If you're paying, I agree with the idea.

If a woman can forgive a husband caught in the act, then a man should be able to do the same. If a man is arguing that his wife must forgive him when he strays, but that he can't forgive her when she strays, then he's a cheater. women take note!

I agree with your policy. It makes sense. Cheaters won't agree.

If I know that she's only saying no because she wants to look "hard" or "expensive" I'll feel as if I'm being manipulated. And i hate being manipulated. I like straightforwardness and sincerity but I must admit that not all men (or women) are like that. Some people just prefer to live in a slimy world of pretence.

Subject: 2006 Summer Internship Program

Dear ALL,

The time for summer internships is here again. I just want to let you know that we have started receiving requests from university students to do their internships in Accenture beginning from May. If you know any student who wishes be an intern, please ask him/her to submit request to Bayo in HR on or before April 26, 2006.

However, the following conditions apply:

i. An intending intern must be an undergraduate student (not postgraduate) of a recognized university either in Nigeria or abroad. . A particular effort is being made to attract students from our Nigerian universities to participate in the program, their session schedule permitting.

ii. Must be at least in the 2nd year of course of study

iii. A student who has completed his/her course of study but awaiting result of final year examination or NYSC call up is NOT eligible.

iv. When requesting for Industrial Attachment, a student is required to attach an authorized Industrial Attachment/ Internship form with request.

v. In order to bring in the right caliber of interns, we plan to put applicants through an admission process. Criteria for evaluation will include school transcripts showing a cumulative GPA of 3.5 and above, essay writing and interviews.

vi. Successful interns should be prepared to work in any part of the country where Accenture has projects.

Thanks

Femi

You shouldn't store images in a database. You should store them in the filesystem and refer to the filenames in your database. That is easier and also more efficient. Cheers!

If you must store images in a database, use BLOB columns.

Thanks a million, 2cantango. You've just made my day. isn't it interesting how people find it easier to threaten to leave than to hit the "report to moderator" button to fix whatever is bothering them? And here was I almost declaring you a the mother of Nairaland. Thanks a million for euthanizing my hopes.

Now that you've threatened to leave, I feel so special as the admin. I feel as if the hard work I do to make the forum better is very much appreciated. Nothing makes me happier than favored members threatening to leave.

Interesting. Any idea what "oserien" means and in what language the word exists?

Each time i asked why he didnt just leave her alone to find someone else instead of wasting her time, he said he was keeping his options open.

That's called a player. Why some people are most mean to the very people they claim to "love", I will never understand. When i say that "love" is mostly a joke, people call me a cynic.

Let Taiye Taiwo or any Nigerian footballer marry Beyonce tommorrow and by next month reports of his 'African sexiness' will be all over the tabloids. When you marry a celebrity, you become one too.

Sorry, chinani, but babymine didn't say she's having such a problem!

Old glory, thanks for your response. I find it useful.

Considering how ridiculously slow the bandwidth on the Starcomms network is, it would have been better if they used the money throwing during this 2 week period to purchase additional bandwidth (from NITEL's SAT-3 cable?) to make their network more tolerable. People who are doing serious online and are willing to pay to be online will be frustrated during this period as their browsing speed slows to a crawl.

In his own words, "Past Financial Data for Companies listed on the NSE." Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Nairaland, brother!

Rhea: Thanks. that was insightful.

Others: I think you're misunderstanding my question.

I did not ask "how to pick stocks" because I know all the theory you know and more.

The question I asked is "how do YOU PICK stocks". I am asking for your experiences. Why am I asking? Because I want to understand the psychology of an investor.

If you think I'm planning to invest in the stock market and I'm loking for tips, you're wrong. I'm just trying to understand how you guys reason, that's all. Do you now understand? Not "how to" but "how do YOU".

So I'm asking for real life experiences from active investors. The theory I know, thanks. Rhea, thanks.

1) Stop sleeping with the boyfriend/girlfriend you want to break up with.
2) Stop visiting him/her.
3) Stop calling him/her.
4) When your (ex) boyfriend/girlfriend complains, explain that you want to end the relationship.
5) Feel miserable and alone for a 4 months, while having several one night stands.
6) Jump into another doomed relationship after the waiting period is over.
7) Continue at step one.

Don't attack me; this is what people people do all the time. Surely it works for them!

I love it. Can you tell me how to[b] download and install[/b] this beautiful feature?

Can you post your review of this movie "Tsotsi" (or is it "totsi"?) as well as any relevant websites you can find. Thanks.

Where's your picture and what kind of work do you do?

guys, I'm just trying to collect real life experiences so I can connect them with the theory.

You and I knows Yarima can not introduce Sharia to the whole of Nigeria

But he can introduce it to states in the north that do not have Sharia. That is enough for me not to even consider voting for him.

Thanks. Your entertainment blog is very similar to one I planned but wasn't able to execute. I think the choices you made on topics to cover are excellent.

Please feel free to post summaries and links to each of your posts on this thread as they come up. Cheers.

Mr. Entertainment,

I think the vision you have for your site is really cool, and so I've featured this thread. Keep it up!

Do you think Nairaland is cool? Wanna add us to your coollinks?

Nwoke,
Nairaland Admin.

She has every right to be as fat as she wants to be. It's her life people!

How can the ladies fall in love with Taiye Taiwo or (Segun?) Arinze if they don't know what these boys look like? Can you post their pictures, please?

Beckham is hot because he married a spice girl. In order to be as popular as Beckham, a black football player will need to marry a singer from Destiny's Child! (Beyonce Knowles or Kelly Rowland). Let us know when that happens.
