Lesbianism, in the most simplified form, is the homosexuality of women. A female person is called a lesbian when she expresses her sexual and romantic desires toward another female. By the laws of nature all the living creatures are born with the inborn instinct to mate with opposite sex. But lesbianism is an exception to this law of nature; as a lesbian will generate no feelings of romance towards the opposite sex, but shows sexual feelings only to a same sex being. Today many countries have made lesbian relationships legal and lesbian marriages takes place in western countries. Today lesbianism is no more considered a taboo in modern societies, but only a slightly deviated way of thinking. Whereas Lesbophobia is a movement to silence lesbians everywhere, to double dose lesbians with sexism and homophobia and dare them to challenge that erasure of who and what they are. Causes of lesbianism Lesbianism can be caused by both mental and physical reasons. Many a times a person develops lesbian traits at the early childhood itself. Certain physical conditions back lesbian mentality. Today, lesbianism is no more concerned a mental disorder. But it is proved that lesbianism is more a mental orientation than a physical disorientation. Psychology says that a great number of lesbians have developed homosexual desires as a regression to the earlier stages of development. There are two common models of lesbianism. If a girl experiences the company of other girl or girl more than that with a boy, she may possibly become a lesbian. On the other hand, if a girl, by whatever reasons, happened to hate a boy or boys, she may become a lesbian. In fact, lesbianism can be derived from uncommon attachment to a girl or from hatred to boys. The physical reasons include sexual disabilities of different kinds. Social issues related with lesbianism Though legally supported, lesbian couple often feel socially neglected and looked down upon. Society always takes its own time to change the deep rooted mentalities. The number of lesbian couples is increasing day by day as today people have all the freedom to identify their sexual orientation and select a lifestyle independently. The bulging issue associated with lesbianism is the increasing number of ‘fatherless’ babies. Lesbians, if they prefer to have a baby, have to either adopt or approach a sperm donor to mother a baby. These children are fated to grow as ‘fatherless’ kids. Babies growing with lesbian parents will lack the awareness of healthy family relationships which he/she has to learn from the families. Usually, the marriage between a man and woman is not just to satisfy the sexual needs, but to accomplish the social needs of procreation and mental needs of sharing the love. But a lesbian union is always based on the sexual aspect only. A baby grown between lesbian parents has all the possibilities of lagging behind other kinds in mental growth and maturity. Can lesbianism be treated? Lesbianism is never a disorder to be treated and cured; see more here:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/feminism/is-lesbianism-a-product-of-feminism |

Calcium is very important in keeping the body functioning properly. Some of calciums main functions are creating bone mass and preventing osteoporosis, but calcium also helps normalize the function of nerves and muscles, helps regulate your heartbeat, helps you sleep, and helps promotes healthy skin and hair. It is also important in immunological activity of cells. There are numerous factors that can reduce the calcium level in your body. Things like too much sitting, excessive coffee, alcohol consumption and carbonated beverages can all lower your body’s calcium level. Women that are pregnant, women in menopause, men over the age of 50, and people suffering from digestive disorders are especially prone to calcium deficiency. Also, eggshells are especially beneficial for children because of their body’s formation of bone tissue. An eggshell contains over 90 percent calcium and is a natural source of 27 different minerals (such as: magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, sodium, potassium, iron, sulfur, aluminum). The composition of eggshells resembles our teeth and bones, which makes it easy for the body to absorb. Also the protein of a shell is composed of such essential amino acids as methionine, cysteine, lysine, isoleucine. This makes eggshells an effective natural means to obtain calcium. see more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/lifes-ultimate/an-eggshell-is-as-important-as-the-eggs-too |
A student of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) has written an open letter to the government of the state where the institution is located. The school which has been on strike for more than 4 months has attracted heavy critics from all corners and it’s indeed deflating the prestige of Oyo and Osun states which co-own the school. The writer whose name is known as Oladipupo expressed his mind in the letter which he addressed to the governor of Oyo state, Ajibola Ajimobi. The letter reads: “Please I love to begin like this, Nigeria got her independence in 1960, today, it was 56 years ago, you as the governor of Oyo state was just of an age below 10. For me, my mother hadn’t been born, but to history and records that tell the happenings we give thanks. The word “right” is defined as just right, another definition may come as an understatement but let’s understand it as an abstract idea of that which is due to a person or governmental body by law, or tradition, or nature. To disturb me adjectivally, it means in conformance with justice or law or morality. With due respect sir, I have reminded you about the time of independence because it was since then that every Nigerian has been greatly empowered to live with “rights”. So it’s, that is owned by the male and female, the handicap, the governors, the tall, the short and even the Nigerian students. As Nigerians we all have it no matter what the state of power has any of us. You, the big political leader have always been trying to prove your rights on exhibiting acts which seem to the people of Oyo state crazy, cruel and barbaric. And you always provide them answers because you know they all have the right to question you. Like I have talked about the freedom of speech under political condition, I’ll let go the natural condition of right not to look rude at all. So I have the right to write on to reply to this statement “Lautech Students are thugs” and to aggrandize that you are our great role model. see more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/campus-affairs/lautech-student-writes-an-open-letter-to-the-governor-of-oyo-state-ajimobi |
Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel is closing in on a move away from Stamford Bridge. Former Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt, who bought Marseille in October, had promised to invest heavily in the January transfer window to help manager Rudi Garcia build a team that could be European champions. Les Phoceens were ready to rescue Mikel from his Chelsea nightmare in the summer but the player’s reported £3.4m-a-year salary reportedly aborted the move. Nigerian manager Gernot Rohr has confirmed that the Chelsea midfielder is in advanced negotiations with French club Marseille and a January transfer is very much on the cards. He also confirmed that Chelsea are ready to let him leave on a free transfer. I saw him in London. He is in advanced discussions with Marseille. Marseille is a serious option for him,” the German told Europe 1 Chinese moneybags Shanghai SIPG reportedly offered Mikel £170,000 per week to move to Asia but Europe 1 believes the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winner will move to Stade Velodrome next month as he will be a key player at Marseille. see more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/sports/mikel-close-to-leaving-stamford-bridge-for-marseille |
Sometimes when we are about to fall asleep after staring at the ceiling for some minutes, our body suddenly jerks right up because we felt like we were about falling off a cliff or about to be hit by something. Nobody knows the actual cause of this but to me it’s fascinating, because it gives me the sense that I going to rest well for the night. Here are the reasons you suddenly jerk up back while falling asleep The Body Jerk Majority of the time you jump because you feel like you’re falling, being hit or were scared by something you saw in your sleep. Some people feel embarrassed while some are startled by it, but it’s not bad after all. Hypnic Jerk Physically, hypnic jerks resemble the “jump” experienced by a person when startled, sometimes accompanied by a falling sensation. Hypnic jerks are associated with a rapid heartbeat, quickened breathing, sweat, and sometimes “a peculiar sensory feeling of ‘shock’ or ‘falling into the void. Defense Mechanism Doctors believe this is your body reacting to the first stage of sleep, which is when your breathing and heart rate slows. Your body begins to think your organs are failing and tries to wake you up with a jolt! Some say this happens when extremely exhausted. see more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/lifes-ultimate/here-is-why-you-suddenly-jump-up-while-falling-asleep-see-more-picture-below |

To keep being straight, our Model sir, at the end of reading this message you might decide to order my arrest, but for a man like me who’s sick of living in this so-corrupted country I will be smiling before you in the court of law. Matter of fact, I need to ask you why you’d get me arrested again after you’d already attempted to kill me on the 9th of December, 2016? Within these words, as our adopted father sir, tell me sincerely if you will order the NPF to fuel the ammo tank and shoot mercilessly at your kids if they are also Ladokites protesting peacefully for resumption after the 6 months and still lingering strike—and not the ones you’ve already travelled out of the country to study out there in fine and total peace? As the result of the everyday railing of the students, I heard you loud and clear give the oral statement that Ladokites are thug -in-the-Yoruba-dialect during the townhall meeting, now which has caused me a thing which is excusable as moral-cephalalgia which made me take from the tablet of patience to cure myself. Yes, quite respectful to the Elder I am. Now with the bullets of the day, you’ve hurt a spot, you got to cut one of the tissues that secure my mannerism, I beg, you’ve to do calm with an injured man. Now I have to take us far back to the 60s, the typical act got done by you in the primary school you attended maybe it was just to prove your right. Right. I still beg you not to think like I had already delved into your background. Peradventure when we meet, you will know that I am somehow related to you thus correct me if I am wrong now thou the source of these facts is still nowhere to be found. continue reading:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/campus-affairs/lautech-student-writes-an-open-letter-to-the-governor-of-oyo-state-ajimobi |
If your days consist of running to and from work, cleaning up the house, taking care of family, and maybe slipping in some time with your friends, you may feel like there’s no time exercise. Even if you can make time for the gym, the idea of getting sweaty and working so hard might make you want to slip even further into your couch cushions. In either case, there’s a good chance you could be severely out of shape and have a difficult time performing even the simplest of physical fitness tests. Here are seven signs that you should kick your daily activity level up a notch, because you’re not as in shape as you think you might be. 1. You can’t do push-up Pushups are an excellent test of your physical fitness, as you utilize muscles in your back, shoulders, arms, and core. To perform the perfect push-up, you should be sure to lower yourself with your arms tucked close to your body before pushing yourself back up. This is a tough exercise, but anyone who is physically fit should be able to knock out at least some. Very well has a chart showing the averages for both men and women of different ages. Though there’s a lot of variation, anyone younger than 50 should be able to do a minimum of five to 10 just to be considered in fair shape. If you’re struggling to perform a couple of push-ups (and don’t worry, you’re not alone), then it’s perfectly fine to start with your knees on the ground. As you get stronger, you can adjust the move to your fitness level. Don’t give up, they’ll get easier over time. 2. It takes a long time for your heart rate to slow down: When you’re physically fit and exercising, your heart beats faster to pump needed oxygen throughout your body. Your heart rate can be anywhere between 140 and 190 beats per minute, depending on your age, when you’re considerably exerting yourself. When you stop, your heart rate will decrease by about 20 beats per minute until it’s back at a normal pace. if you’re out of shape, it could take much longer. The fitter you are, the faster you’ll recover. 3. You have a large waist circumference: According to the National Heart Foundation of Australia, you should check your waist circumference to see if you’re carrying excess body fat around your midsection. Though your weight is not necessarily indicative of your fitness level, carrying excess weight around your middle could mean you’re not as in shape as you should be. Also, more weight around your abdomen area could mean trouble for your heart, kidneys, liver, digestive organs, and pancreas. You can measure your waist by first measuring from the top of your hip bone to the bottom of your ribs. Breathe out as you normally would so you’re not holding your breath in, then place the tape measure between these two points. Wrap the tape measure around your waist and look at this measurement. WebMD says men should have a circumference of no more than 40 inches and women should not exceed 35 inches. 4. You’re winded after walking up a staircase: Even the most seasoned athletes will feel like their bodies need more oxygen when they’re climbing a flight of stairs, so if you do catch yourself a little short of breath when walking up a steep incline, don’t fret too much. However, if you find you’re really struggling to get up those steps, you’re probably out of shape and could use some cardiovascular activity. Cardio is tough, and if you’re out of shape, it might feel near impossible to continuously walk up steps or jog a mile. The AZCentral’s Healthy Living section suggests you start your cardiovascular exercise slowly if your body isn’t used to the demand. Schedule five 30-minute light cardio workouts like brisk walks each week. Choose low-impact, low-resistance exercises to get started, and always warm up for anything more vigorous. You’ll be conquering those stairs in no time. 5.You’re craving sugar: Exercising might influence what foods you crave. While you may think your body would be craving food immediately after exercise, a study performed on 30 young adults who exercised regularly found they had little interest in food immediately after exercise. The study also showed those who did little physical activity were more likely to crave sweets. see more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/fitnes-and-body-building/7-signs-you-are-seriously-out-of-shape-see-more-picture |
Blac Chyna’s Instagram account was hacked on Saturday - and the end result appears to be a world of hurt. Chyna, 28, moved quickly to let her social media followers know that she had set up a new account. ‘Just to let you all know that’s not me on my IG page,’ she explained in a video she shared after a series of messages claiming she had been cheating on Rob were posted on her original account. ‘That’s somebody that hacked me And somebody’s really, really, really, really, really mad,’ she explained. In one lengthy conversation, the authenticity of which cannot be verified, the former exotic dancer appears to tell Treasure that she plans to give Rob a year to shape up otherwise she’s leaving him. ‘He’s lazy, fat, insecure,’ writes the 28-year-old, who became engaged to Kris Jenner’s only son in April. ‘Imma give rob 1 year to get it together or I’m gone,’ she adds. Her pal advises her to ‘just stack ur money’ and that ‘Kris will make sure y’all stable always.’ Rob already believed the message and responded to it on his snapchat. He wrote: “Sorry to be so open but I’m not feeling so good after seeing @blacchyna messages about me and what her plans were. I have never been this heartbroken in my life. I don’t mind being so open or if anyone thinks I’m being weak but I don’t play when it comes to Family and Chyna was my Family and thought we were getting married. I treated her as a Queen. My baby girl is 1 month old and Chyna took her and left this beautiful home that I just bought for us. Right before Christmas. Someone I have given my all too. I Loved every inch of that woman and loved everything that came with her. I truly loved Angela. I gave everything I owned for her. see more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog//this-is-really-heartbreaking-blac-chyna-and-rob-kardashian-in-a-very-messy-split-on-social-network |
Marriage is sweet; many single persons wish to be in it at just a glance at other’s pre-wedding photos, but those already in it, well let’s just hope for the best. But you can always call me if it doesn’t work out. At the end of the day, it’s a divorce, constant fighting or just extra marital affairs that’s becomes the other of the day…, c’mon couples, we are bigger than that. These are some of the reasons why you may want to cheat on your partner and the earlier you know this, the better because you can just avoid it! 1. Early marriage People who marry in their early 20s would most likely have achieved some level of stability and social standing by their mid-30s. At that point, they feel that they did not really enjoy life in their 20s, and find it exciting to indulge in an extramarital affair. It is their way of experiencing the thrill and excitement of dating. 2.Married for the wrong reasons Many people enter into marriage for the wrong reasons. If they meet someone who is in any way a better match than their current spouse, they are immediately attracted to him/her. And what starts as a simple friendship usually ends up in an affair. 3.Inability to deal with changes Life throws changes at us almost every day. Most of us are able to deal with the small changes. But the bigger ones are tougher to deal with — a serious illness in the family, death, loss of employment, financial loss, etc. Many turn to people, apart from their spouses to deal with such changes. They find more comfort in the arms of someone new, perhaps someone not connected to their tough circumstances in any way. 4.Becoming parents Becoming a parent changes everything about a husband-wife relationship. Priorities change, the time you can give each other reduces and your immediate living environment alters drastically. And since most women are usually so busy being mothers, they probably don’t even realize this for a long time. 5.Physical dissatisfaction This is probably one of the most common reasons for people to get involved in an extramarital affair. 6.Emotional disconnect Sometimes a couple grows emotionally disconnected from each other, the top reasons being lack of time and lack of communication with each other. To be emotionally connected, you need to share, you need to talk, you need to express, you need to listen, you need to laugh, you need to care and show that you care. see more here:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/young-families/reasons-people-have-extramarital-affairs-in-marriages |

Exercise: exercise will help keep your mind and body busy and in good condition also. The more you exercise the better chance you have of coming out of depression. 2. Eat serotonin-enhancing foods: Serotonin is a chemical messenger that’s believed to act as a mood stabilizer. It’s said to help produce healthy sleeping patterns as well as boost your mood.

If you’re in a relationship with anyone for long enough, you will have fights simply because conflicts are part of relationships. In fact it is fun to just stand and scream at each other over one common issue that you could have simply overlooked. If you have open communication and no one is afraid of or pretending to the other, your disagreements will definitely come up. When two people get married, they are merging their formerly separate lives and this cannot happen without some friction. They will have different opinions about so many things and from time to time, this will lead to fights. The key is to know how to fight; with love, respect, honesty, forgiveness and willingness to meet each other half way. Some issues, however, are recurring causes of fights in many homes and these five are some of the most common; Money Money means a lot; security, status, well being, health and plenty other things and people relate to money in different ways and with different values. When two people merge in marriage, aligning and unifying (or not) these money values often happen in the process of many money fights. Money is a major issue in a marriage and it is often the make or break factor for many marriages. Sex Many couples fight about matters relating to affection and physical intimacy, sometimes because of conflicting expectations and sometimes as a fine-tuning process. It’s an important matter and it causes a lot frustration and apprehension and therefore, a lot of fights. In-laws Whether it’s about how the husband doesn’t defend and protect his wife enough before his mom and sisters or it’s about how the wife likes to discuss too much with everyone in her family, couples always find something to raise the roof about concerning each other’s family. It’s been happening for really long time and is not likely to stop. Children It could be how one person disciplines the kids or how another is too aloof or too easy on them. see more here:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/young-families/the-common-things-that-leads-to-fight-in-marriages |
Blac Chyna had folks on the Internet gushing over her latest hairstyle — an eye-catching crop of platinum blond faux locs, which is actually a wig expertly styled by Kellon Deryck, the soon-to-be Kardashian’s hairstylist. The piece was made in collaboration with Deryck and Aaliyah, one of the braid specialists at the Kellon Deryck salon in Atlanta. The perfectly blended wig had us wondering just how Deryck got it to look so real. So we asked the hair guru to spill the deets on how the dreadlock extensions were crafted and modified to become the beauty look that’s been shared all over Instagram — and for which he says he has since gotten at least 12 requests from mainstream celebrities to re-create. see more here:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog//applaudise-for-blac-chynas-hair-stylist

1. Taxes How confusing are taxes? If we had a bit more practice preparing them before we left school, we’d be in better shape to tackle them after school. Imagine defining tax as lessons are going, memorizing them for exams and then come out to face the reality of paying them. 2. Live Without Technology I’m not getting all doomsday or anything but there might be times when you need to live without technology – like, during a natural disaster. The more we rely on tech, the more vulnerable we are when the batteries stop! 3. Health! Sure, there are PE classes at school but is there really any in-depth learning in regards to how to look after your health in the long term? 4. Shopping Shopping is always going to be part of your life, but wouldn’t it be great if, at school, they taught you how to spend it wisely and how to get the best bargains? 5. Speaking This might sound like a strange one but there runs are on the board, so to speak. How many people do you know that don’t know how to speak politely, or effectively, when it comes to communication either personally or professionally? 6. First aid You may have been lucky enough to attend a school where this was taught in some form or another. But it really should be a core part of the school curriculum – seriously. That way, absolutely everybody would know it as second nature. 7. Law We don’t want everybody to become lawyers, but it would be nice if people were taught the law from day one and then perhaps, they’d grow up to live in a more law-abiding world. 8. Patience I wish they had taught me this at school. I’m very bad at being patient. I can’t even wait for this damn sentence to finish! 9. Finding job Yeah, school gets us ready for more schooling (in the form of university), however, a lot of us could do with a bit of help learning how to go about getting a job, either while we’re studying or beyond that. Not just teaching us how to write application later though. 10. The metric system This one probably applies mainly to people in the United States who never got involved in track and field. But that’s a whole lot of people! Some schools might teach a bit, but most need to teach a whole lot more. 11. Car repairs You know, for kids whose dad couldn’t/wouldn’t show them the basics… 12. Computer maintenance The more we use computers the more stuff can go wrong, and wouldn’t it be great if we didn’t have to call the IT guy for absolutely everything?! 13. Making friends This might sound like a strange one but some people don’t have the inherent skills. That doesn’t mean they’re weird or anything, it just means they don’t really know how. It’s a legit skill that will serve you later in life as you try and network and meet new people in the big, wide world. 14. Building credit cards This skill is of utmost importance. If you don’t have a good credit score, it’s going to be difficult to do a whole lot of things in life. Many people learn this the hard way. 15. Time management Many of us bite off more than we can chew, while others really utilize the time as it ought to be. Practice and more practice would make this a skill most people have, creating a more efficient world in which to live. But I learnt how to manage time on my own because they couldn’t teach me that at school. 16. Negotiation Some schools have a small percentage of their students join the debating team, but a more universal approach would give kids the skills and confidence to negotiate better in life. 17.Dating Think about it – if we could somehow learn the trials and tribulations of the dating world earlier in life, wouldn’t we have a better chance of happiness? It would probably put the brakes on teen pregnancy too – perhaps… 18.Breaking up Maybe this should go under the blanket of dating although, as most of us know, breaking up is a whole other ball game. It can get messy – really messy. Maybe, just maybe, if kids were taught how to deal with it better when they’re younger, things won’t get quite so bad later. 19. Live sustainably Perhaps this is one that will actually be factored in over the immediate years to come. The whole planet (okay not the whole planet – but we’re “planting seeds”) is coming to terms with it and so it should only be a matter of time before it’s an inherent part of learning as a child. 20. Home repairs My teacher should have at least taught me how to repair my watches when it spoils. This is exactly like the vehicle repairs except us replace “vehicle” with “home/house”. 21. Handling money They thought by teaching me economics, that they have taught me how to handle money, but they only succeeded in teaching me the law of diminishing returns. See them! Though some parents are pretty good at this, others don’t bother. If it were taught in schools then young people who’ve just started earning their own money will surely make far less financial mistakes. 22. Self defense You never know when you’re going to need this one. In an ideal world you would never need it, however, we do not live in a world like that. If you think about it, it seems crazy that this isn’t universally taught in schools. I mean, if you can’t defend yourself, then what’s the point in doing anything?! 23. How to dress It could be argued that some schools that have a uniform are already doing this; however, if long socks and a tie isn’t your thing, then you’re going to need further assistance, moreover my school uniform does not even include ties. 24. Cooking Some schools offer this sort of thing but it’s another that could perhaps be universal for the benefit of mankind. Then again, there’s this thing called YouTube. 25. Self awareness Who am I? This dog has more of an idea who they are than most kids who’ve just left school. visit link for more:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/campus-affairs/25-things-they-should-have-taught-us-in-school-but-didnt |

No one has claimed responsibility for the blast yet. The latest attack comes two days after two roadside bombs, one in Cairo and one to the north of the capital, left six police officers dead and six others injured.

Cucumber is (a technical fruit) filled mostly with water and fiber. Their high water content helps ward off dehydration and combat the heat while their refreshing and mild taste appeals to even the pickiest eaters. However, there’s reason to eat cucumbers all year long. With vitamin K, B and C copper, potassium, and manganese, cucumbers can help you to avoid nutrient deficiencies that are widespread among those eating a typical American diet. Plus, cucumbers contain unique polyphenols and other compounds that may help reduce your risk of chronic diseases and much, much more. Here are the reasons why you should eat cucumbers 1. Fights Inflammation Cucumbers may help to “cool” the inflammatory response in your body, and animal studies suggest that cucumber extract helps reduce unwanted inflammation, in part by inhibiting the activity of pro-inflammatory enzymes (including cyclo-oxygenase 2, or COX-2). 2. Reduces the Risk of Cancer Cucumbers contain polyphenols called lignans (pinoresinol, lariciresinol, and secoisolariciresinol), which may help to lower your risk of breast, uterine, ovarian, and prostate cancers. They also contain phytonutrients called cucurbitacins, which also have anti-cancer properties. According to the George Mateljan Foundation: 3. Cucumber Protects the Brain Cucumbers contain an anti-inflammatory flavonol called fisetin that appears to play an important role in brain health. In addition to improving your memory and protecting your nerve cells from age-related decline, fisting has been found to prevent progressive memory and learning impairments in mice with Alzheimer’s disease. see more here:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/lifes-ultimate/the-health-benefits-of-cucumber |

In a fast moving innovative and technological world as ours, two fundamentals have constantly occupied the centre stage as prime propellers. They are BOOKS and RESEARCH. While BOOKS are described and most accepted as – “set of written, printed, or blank pages fastened along one side and encased between protective covers which include e-books and e-journals, Research entails the systematic investigation into and study of materials such as books and other sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions. Books are the substantive material products or objects capable of been felt, touched or seen. Research in the other hand are the adjectival process with a procedural elements doable and also demonstrable in key characteristics or words like - study, enquire into, look into, make enquiries, probe, explore, analyse, examine, scrutinize, inspect, review assess and more. If the descriptions or definitions above are true reflections of Books and Research, why then are these two great concepts aliens to a greater population of peoples around the globe? For the Black People, African and Nigerians, the reasons are wide, varied and complex. The analyses are reserved for the next publication. However, for the greater general population, four things and four categories of people(s) stand apparently and indisputable out in relation to their attitudes towards Research & Books. Four principle groups -A, B, C & D are marked out for the purpose of this article: The first -group A create all the books, actions, interfere and even erupt nature and natural phenomena. They alter the cause of history and nature! They are extra ordinarily curious, natural born paranoid adventurists. They are ingenious and scientific. They cause all the inventions and actions wherever and whatsoever in the world. They are the Einsteins, Alfred Nobles, Shakespares, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Prof. Oyibos, Newtons, Faradays, Chikaobis, Achebes, Zuckerberys etc. They are naturally and simplicita - BOOKS & RESEARCH personified. see more here:http://www.nowayobloggers.com/blog/books-research/peoples-attitude-towards-research-books |
