Would you say Mother Teresa was not fulfilled?
What about Apostle Paul (in the Bible)?
Madam don't compare men & women of this present day to paul & mother theresa. Their intentions for leading a single life was entirely for God's work. But we know the present day man & woman lacks interest in marriage because of their nasty & uncouth attitude. Every marriage requires some level of tolerance & humility, which they obviously lack. The bible condemns cohabitation. U can't be preaching what the bible condemns & at the same time making reference to the bible to buttress it. Or u think those condemning marriage can live a life of pure celibacy?

That's exactly the point. They know they can't control the alpha guy, and women want a man they can control or, at least, predict. Look at the thread on the guy who went undercover at Ashley Madison, his experiences are nothing new, just a confirmation of that which is already known.

And the ones that creep the most are these alpha females and feminist types, that "get bored easily". We know them and their tactics. They might want to deny the fact, but we go just look and laugh.
@bolded, so true...
Most women settle for nice guys because of the advantage they will get, not really for the attraction thing...

PropertiesRe: How To Mix And Measurement Of A Concrete by snakebeat: 8:32am On Aug 26, 2015
adaeborwarlae:
JAMADESOG BUILDING CONTRACTOR
The measurement of a pure concrete is in the ratio of 1:2:4.
1 is one head pan of cement(half bag of cement)
2 is two head pan of sharp sand
4 is four head pan of granite.
To mix a concrete by mixing machine:
1) First put 20 litres of water into the machine,
2) put 1 head pan of cement(half bag),
3) put 2 head pan of sharp sand,
4) put 4 head pan of granite,
and the machine will mix it all together.
To mix by hand:
Measure 7 head pan of sharp sand,put 1 bag of cement and mix it together with a shovel,after mixing put 5 head pan of granite and spread it on it,put 50 litres of water to it and mix to form a paste.
FAQ: Why is measurement of granite for mixing machine is more than mixing by hand?
ANS: Because mixing machine will mix it very well(continuos rotating) to quickly form a paste than mixing by hand.

Oga slaw12, Na question you ask! Here's the answer and the cost shaving tips:

1. The project is personal project. There's no need for extra cost or fee of supervision or project management fee.
2. All labour charges for the project is Free of Charge (FOC). Boys must contribute to Oga's project and there's plenty of Eba to eat after each day's work.
3. Material prices (sharp sand - 4500, gravel - 12k, plaster - 4500, block - 90ngn, iron rods are offcuts bought from iron rod manufacturing company in Ogijo, Ogun state, roofing wood (fadala), 0.35mm gauge roofing Aluminium sheet and so many cost shaving methods were adopted.
4. No German Floor but block holes were filled with pure water satchet and blinded with cement and sand.
5. Using 6 inches block means less cement and sand usage.
6. Precast lintels instead of the traditional lintel construction
7. Sliding window without net. Net installed separately.
8. Used 12mm iron rods for the burglar proof window.
9. Panel doors from Ijebu Ode with frames
10. Tiles in the living room and normal Screeded floor in other rooms.
11. Buried 2000 liters GP tank for the septic tank and installed one well ring for the soakaway. All this less than 45k
12. Asbestos ceiling in all room except living room. Ceiling noggin at 2 x 4 on the exteriors and 4 x 4 in the interiors.
13. Used block construction for the kitchen cabinet with only the front covered up.
14. Used soil excavated from the septic tank and soakaway for Sandfilling the building.
15. And so many other cost saving methods were explored.

Oga slaw12, anything is possible if you really want to achieve it. No deception. If you go the same route, you'll see that you can drive down your cost by 40-45%
No 4 though... cheesy

Men and women are different but equal. Or rather, should be equal. The most important premise of feminism isn't about whether or not you can slap a woman which is the kinda rubbish argument that people always bring up as if that is even a pertinent life issue.
Feminism is just like anti-racism, before anything else, they want equality. How is that bad..... Even the bible says there is neither 'Jew nor Greek, Slave nor Free, Male nor Female' blah blah blah

Human beings are just human beings. You're not a special snowflake just cause you were born male shikena and all females deserve to be awarded the same opportunities that all males are. That's the basic point, I think grin

Men and women have different physical and emotional build. Men tend to be taller, stronger and more aggressive. Women are more gentle, weaker and tend to be shorter. I can only agree with gender equality to the extent that women are given the same chances to occupy posts filled by men in the academia, sports, government etc. But I do not agree with the premise that men and women are equal.

QUESTION FROM A NAIRALANDER:
"I bought a parcel of land that has already built raft foundation for 3 storey building. On inquiry I learnt that it was done about 15 years ago. This year I want to build my 1 storey building on it since it tallies with my Architectural design. Is it advisable to use the old foundation or I should demolish it and start afresh?"


PLEASE CONTRIBUTE MY FELLOW PROFESSIONALS
One can build a new house on top of an existing foundation, the real question is should one build on an old foundation? 15yrs is quite a long time, more than a decade. what is the current state of the existing foundation. Are there visible signs of undermining; cracks, is it broken, is it crumbling, These are important questions that you might require an engineer’s report to tell.

Since the size, shape and layout of the existing foundation conform to what the client want to build, it maybe ok if the foundation is still in a good state. But building on an existing foundation could limit you and waste potential wonderful views or cause you to lose privacy.

Personally I'll advise a new one, because u wouldn't know the spacing & type of rebars that is in the existing one, though considering building on existing foundation maybe due to financial constraint, it's always better to start building from foundation, except structures were detailed documentation is available, should incase any issue comes up.... smiley

This big omission as rendered the building incomplete even after the completion of the project, The Inhabitant of the building would forever be plagued with the constant scourge of water rising through the foundation to soak the wall leading to pilling of the paint.
This is entirely not true.
Usage of DPM depends on the land, swampy, water table & all that. It's mainly recommended for waterlogged areas. Though it's preferable to use it regardless of the land, but it can still be compromised like hardcore & wiremesh, if the building is on a dry land....

Help!!! My younger brother is gay.
Pls I need your helpful advise. I am the eldest son of a family of four boys..my immediate younger brother is 22 and he is a handsome boy , for years I have been battling with thoughts that my younger brother might be gay ,Because of some very obvious but yet arguable signs, this 22 years old guy as fine as he is not get babe wen me nor fit count my ex ,whenever I confront him on issues like that his answer is either the relationship is not working out or he hasn't gotten the right partner...but e nor finish there...My brothers phone is hard to access but the few times I luckily got hold of the phone and saw his conversations...behold some of his conversations smacked of homosexuality....I have cornered him and spoken to him cautiously about it ,although he tried to deny I didn't give him the chance to .. I made it clear to him how disgusting and annoying it is and he promised to change with claims that its not as serious as I am taking it....but I have just gotten confirmations from my real dude cousin that my younger brother is still so involve in gayism and he saw conversations with pictures revealing homosexualism again ... I just feel very bad abouth , this is so saddening , and as a concerned brother it hurts real bad to discover that has much as I loathe gayism with full hatred my younger brother Is one..pls anyone with a tactful and helpful advise on how to stop my brother abeg..
@bolded, this is how u pressure young men into thinking it's a must to have a girlfriend.
So u think ur younger brother is gay because he doesn't have a girlfriend? Can u see how judgemental u're? U should be proud of ur younger brother, because he is a potential faithful husband. He is just 22! how old are u that u have already lost count of ur ex? How possibly can u stick to one woman after marriage? U should be ashamed of urself.

I understand the state of ur younger brother because I was once like him, God blessed me with self control, my brother & friends thought I was gay, just the same way u're castigating ur younger brother, I was just laughing at them. Though we are very few, some of us still got self control, of which ur brother is among. I'll advise u to emulate him & stop castigating him.
We need more of his likes....

The gravel supplier mistakenly brought 1/2" to site instead of 3/4".
3/4" end up having better strength with the same mix ratio with 1/2".
Okay sir....
So it's okay to use 1:4:4 for 3/4? Because there tend to be too much stones using 1:2:4...
I think I'll adopt this 1:4:4.

form work and casting of short columns:
About 12 out of the 20 short column was boarded and cast today using a mix ratio of 1:4:4 ( due to the size of the coarse aggregates)
The short/foundation columns have varying height due to the topography of the site.
Nice & neat job as usual... U're good. But what is the size of the coarse aggregate? That made u use 1:4:4? I presume 3/4? is the end result as solid as the conventional mix ratios...

Laziness is a serious issue in marriage.
A woman that is lazy cannot be a good mother. She cannot raise her children properly. She simply cannot equip them with the qualities they need later on in life.
She will raise children that can themselves not run a home and these children will also have issues later.
She also cannot fulfil her duties as a wife.
So what exactly is she bringing into the marriage?
Actually nothing. This shortcomming is accute and ever present.
Once househelps notice that you can`t do anything yourself, they also just do what they want. Because if you can´t do it you also can`t control it.
What is a woman that does not have control of her home. When a man has to come home and take care or control of everything.

About 50bags of cement.
Workmanship/ labour depends on the location, since it's 6'' block, it should be around 40/50 naira per block or 3k per day for 80blocks, depending on your negotiating power. Labour should be around 1500 or 2000 naira per day. Like I said, depending on the location...

FamilyRe: Submission In Marriage by snakebeat: 10:08pm On Aug 16, 2015
Phema:
Nice thread. But again, you are not defining submission in marriage according to the Bible.

The Bible says "wives submit to your husbands in all things". This means that you MUST do your husband's bidding ALWAYS, even when it really doesn't make sense.

And no. A husband and wife are not equal, biblically. You donot submit "in all things" to someone you are equal to. The way I see it, one is either a christian who lives by the Bible or an athiest/non practising christian who lives by common sense. No middle grounds. A real christian woman must submit to her husband always, hence not equal to him.

Now, my question is; what if my husband wants me to do something that is obviously a sin? At what point does one say no to submission without going against God's word?
@bolded
God is not an author of confusion! Don't play pranks with him! I presume u're a lady for asking such question. As a true christian, the bible should be your ultimate guide. It's written in the bible, honour thy father & thy mother, as a student, it's obligatory to obey your teacher, but that doesn't mean saying NO to anything that goes contrary to the bible isn't right. ''If it's your hand that will lure u into sin, it's better to cut it off''.

God is too pure to identify with sin, likewise anything inspired of him, when he said submit to your husband in all things, as a christian u should know he was talking about the good things. Your father ask u to prepare a meal, u refuse. A husband tells his wife to prepare a meal for the family, she refuse, just to prove she's equal to her husband, she starves the family & commits disobedience, which violate's God's command, because what the husband asked of her wasn't against God's command. But when a man tells his wife to sleep with his friend, it's expected of the wife to say NO, because it's adultery, it violate's God's command.

I really don't like it when I see feminists dragging God's name into their pride motivated rebellious ideologies. Feminists are bereft of humility, they don't have a modicum of it. We all know the truth, God's commandments are well laid out in the bible, trying to twist God's word all in a bid to suit their misplaced sentiments & pride will only lead them to hell.

There is no correlation between feminism & christianity, they are two parallel lines. Feminists should stop scoffing God by making reference to the bible when propagating their pride motivated rebellious ideologies...
