Nehemiah 8 vrs 4-6. Where congregational prayer was established

Spot on! I knew a Muslim will definitely quote this. We all know Muhammad is the greatest plagiarizer of all time. Copying the Bible and twist it to suit is intentions. Shame on Muhammad! May he know no peace for all he has done. Spit on him...

The United States has many powerful supercomputers, but since 2013 none of them have been the fastest in the world. As of 2016, the United States also doesn't have the second-fastest supercomputer in the world. And as of today, the U.S. doesn't even have the third-fastest supercomputer in the world. That honor now belongs to Switzerland.

Over the past year, the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre's "Piz Daint" supercomputer has been receiving an upgrade that more than tripled its speed, which moved it from number 8 on the TOP500 list of top supercomputers all the way to number 3. The upgrade increased its speed to around 20 petaflops, slightly faster than the 17 petaflops that the U.S. Titan supercomputer is capable of.

This is still nowhere near fast enough to beat out the two Chinese supercomputers that top the list. The Tianhe-2 computer reaches 33 petaflops, while the Sunway TaihuLight computer, which took the top spot in 2016 , reaches a whopping 93 petaflops.

This is the first time since 1996 that a U.S. supercomputer has not made it into the top three spots on the TOP500, likely reflecting the lack of development in supercomputer technology. But that might be about to change. The Department of Energy just awarded over $250 million in grants to a number of companies to help develop next-generation supercomputer tech, so perhaps the U.S. can reclaim those top spots in the next few years.

NEW DELHI: Nokia 9, one of the smartphones that is being rumoured lately, is now said to arrive in 6GB RAM and 8GB RAM variants. The smartphone, according to previous speculations, was said also come in 4GB RAM variant.
.
.
The new 6GB RAM and 8GB RAM versions of the unannounced Nokia 9 were reportedly spotted in HMD's letter to the FCC by the Nokiamob website. In the letter, HMD Global has requested FCC to transfer test result permits from the TA-1004 model to TA-1012. The letter is said to explain that the company plans to market the FCC-certified TA-1004 as TA-1012. "The equipment is electrically identical with no change in design, circuitry and construction," says the letter.
.
.
According to a recent report by the Nokia Power User, the TA-1012 was spotted on Geekbench smartphone benchmarking website with 6GB RAM. The 8GB RAM version too has been spotted on Geekbench according to the website.
.
.
.
Some of the rumoured features mentioned about the handset are dual-SIM support, 5.3-inch QHD resolution display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 6GB/8GB RAM, 64GB/128GB inbuilt storage, 13MP rear camera, 13MP front-facing camera and IP68 water/dust resistant. The smartphone is also expected to have a physical Home button, along with an embedded fingerprint sensor placed below the display.
.
.
HMD has already launched three Nokia-branded smartphones in India, namely Nokia 6, Nokia 5 and Nokia 3. The three smartphones are priced at Rs 14,999, Rs 12,899 and Rs 9,499 respectively.
.
.
On the specifications front, the trio offer pure Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS experience and come with Google Assistant built-in. HMD Global has already confirmed the handsets will get Android O later this year or next year. Also mentioned is that the smartphones will be made in India, starting with Nokia 3. We can also expect something same for the Nokia 9 as well.
.

hopefulLandlord:
if you think Christianity is not a confusing mishmash kindly read on

Let's ask Christian sects how to define Actual Christianity:

Methodist: It is accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior and publicly sharing that acceptance by getting baptized through sprinkling of water.

Baptist: No, no, no -- you must be DUNKED in water, heathen.

Pentecostal: Yer both wrong -- ye must be baptized by the Holy Spirit and ye must speak in tongues to prove you are saved.

Lutherans: You don't need to do any of that. Our founder said just believe and have faith (oh yeah and he REALLY hated Jews).

Presbyterian: How droll -- lol. No no..you see it does not matter what you do or do not, God has already decided who the true Christians will be and they are obviously all Presbyterians.

Episcopalians: Well, we each get to decide what constitutes Christianity. What is in your heart? What do you think it is for you? What say you, Bishop Spong?

Church of Christ: None of you are going to heaven because you use musical instruments in your services and God hates that.

Jehovah's Witness: Something Something Kingdom Hall; something something no birthdays, several End Times falsely predicted, no blood transfusions,,,,

Seventh Day Adventist: Pah! None of you even have the right day.

United Church of Christ: It's all good; let's listen to an acoustic guitar solo and accept gay people.

Non-denominational: Gay people? ewww. No no, ye must build megachurches with gyms and cafes to be righteous to god.

Catholic: Ummm....oldest sect here, guys. Forget that "accepting Jesus" stuff. You must mediate with God via a priest and eat crackers to get saved (just do not leave your kids alone with said priests, OK?). Oh yeah..and Virgin Mary is way cool.

Church of England: Yeah, what the Catholic said...but divorce is 100% OK.
Unitarian Universalists: Why are you guys even trying to define Christianity? All beliefs are the same (whoops.we aint even Christians).

Stop lying. This ain't nollywood. Taaaar!!

I pity your condition...

Beautiful piece. Nice one coming from the Op...

Ralph, HND (Higher National Diploma) was designed by people who were in-charge of affairs and most of them were university graduates. To prevent HND from being equal to degree, they chose the word “diploma” instead of Technology which is more creative than administrative quality of university degrees. Even a B.Sc. (Bachelor of Science) degree holder does not have the technical knowledge which HND holders have. HND should have been higher scientific technology (HST) to really give it a deserving title. Most first rate countries of the world made it through citizens training in science and technology. Nigeria leaders lack such orientation. Universities are set up by some states to mass produce graduates from their zones so they could have higher number of posts in public sector. Many of their products cannot defend their university certificates. So, how are they better than HND holders? In colonial times, many officials were not university graduates and yet they got to such high positions. In my view HND certificate holders go for their master degree like their first degree counterparts. HND and degree holders should be at par, simple.

Ralph, I know people go to different institutions of learning to receive what will help in nation building and to be frank what is obtainable in the past is not as you think today. Employ the two and you will see what I mean.

Your write up smarts of sentiments, simply put you have a degree. If you are a HND certificate holder your perception would be different. HND holders in Engineering can do better than theoretical Nigeria university degree holders in same field. They are even better managers when availed with the opportunity. Just to correct your erroneous impression exhibited in the article, I believe you have trained all your kids in universities therefore you can talk down on HND, but for the sake of nation building, though you don’t believe in it, allow National Assembly to do their job.

Your write up on dichotomy simply portrays you as being biased and unrealistic.

Disparity is not an issue, performance is.

Ralph, I read your piece on the above issue and I wanted to make a detailed response but I changed my mind because I think we have more serious issues threatening the wellbeing of the nation than difference between degree and HND. By the way, the matter has been overtaken by the distortion inflicted on the educational sector. Those who manage the tertiary education juggled up everything as a result it is difficult to tell the difference between the degree graduate and the HND holder. Ralph, from the curriculum it is like the polytechnic now added up courses they were barred from doing before, so there is really no difference. I admit you have corrected in what you tried to highlight in the sense that the earlier idea was for those with diploma certificates to stop at some points. The idea was for the HND holders to be the hands on the job men and the degree graduates, the thinkers. As it is today everything is muddled up. It is no longer an issue.

Note: My brother it is an issue. It is important we have levels of expertise; every one cannot be the leader. Some would have to play their roles at much lower levels. It is the urge for all to be the big man that drives the demands. We must have different categories of manpower and these should be very clear to all, so that when you enroll, both parents and their wards know clearly what they are going in for. Of course this should not close the door to further improvements, but the process should be started. It is true the issue is about the critical area of science and technology, yet nothing should be sacrificed on the altar of ego. This is the position I hold.

Dear Ralph,
Your piece “dichotomy between degree and HND” like other of your scholarly discourse threw up, to my mind several misapplications cum implementations of policies by the authority. Though an HND graduate, I have always seen or expected to see the degree holder doing the “office theory” thing while the Diploma holder does the “field” practical thing. To get there also, it is expected that while the degree guy goes from secondary school to the university the diploma guy would come through secondary-technical school to the polytechnic. The polytechnic was where vital practical training over and above what is available in the university, was obtainable. But these were truncated by politico-economic development. Politics of every zone trying to enlarge the number of institutions in its own area and dwindling economy that affected the ability to spread the universities to meet the ever increasing number of applicants, hence the deliberate mix ups observed. Unfortunately the diploma guy had to bear the brunt until now that the change government seems to have taken the bull by the horns. I therefore pray that serious attention be given to science, craft and technical schools for better trade for the upcoming generation of graduates to become labour employers and creators.

Most tomboys are potential lesbos. The ones that don't turn out were probably closed marked by family and neighbors.

See the one my friend hooked up with me so we could date. I never suspected her despite her stiffness and male/logical kinda responses.
They are 4 roomies and their is a particular one she always bad-mouths. However, whenever I go to room, the one she usually bad-mouths (u need to see her, beautiful buxom ebony queen) will always refuse to leave.
My so called 'babe' has consistently refused to visit my house

Wooo... She might be bi you know, you need to press hard to confirm if she's actually into girls only...

I doubt that!

Wow! Never thought of that.... It's not impossible tho.

Awesome point raised by the Op. Good one...

Useless man.

Bleep you..
