If your wireless card is accessible at the back of the laptop like most fairly old laptops. Use screw driver to open the mini door and re insert the card.

Honestly bro even the fight scenes were really boring too.

Have you seen shutter island? (2010) Just saw it last night, that movie is twisted and a great mind fück.. they had the man doubting his sanity. Hats off to DiCaprio and Ruffalo for their performances. I’ll rate it 8/10
I've read some nice reviews about it here... I'll download it tonight or tomorrow, just being lazy to search.. I haven't seen Ruffalo in a movie except marvel universe make I see as e go be sef.

thanks.

Amazed at how I haven't seen BATMAN BEGINS till now.
Just saw it on TNT and I was like where have I been!!
hmmm, you really should spank yourself though, lol...

that movie was a masterclass, I still watched it last afternoon and it's still as good as ever.

I first saw it months ago as well, to think I watched Dark Knight before knowing the movie existed was surprising to me.

Finally seen birds of prey

How can thugs be running riot in Gotham and attacking a police station without any sign of the bat or at all at all commissioner Gordon?

And why is this movie rated R? DC miscalculated on this one tbh, not bad tho 6.5/10
to be honest, they tried to move the movie away from joker, suicide squad and the dceu, they still failed jare.
I can't even start to rate the movie, as much as I crush on Margot... the movie was actually disappointing.

I wasn't impressed at all, seems to be like they just want to do a female version of suicide squad, as usual, the story was meh.

So what is your definition a good plot (mind you for an all out action thriller)?
As far as am concern Extraction has a very simple plot, simple does not mean its weak.

from the John Wicks to the Mad Maxs, Raids, Dredds, you need a very simple plot and intense action, simple plots have done the magic for action packed movies for years, same with video games.
if you only watch movies because plots stick to drama series.
well, this is your opinion.


I don't really have a genre, I watch movies to relax, so anyone I catch that's interesting, I watch, be it Horror, drama, anyone so far it is interesting and intense.

LMAO.... Thank God I didn't join the bandwagon. grin cheesy
lol, common, it's actually a very emotional movie, it's very boring if you're not into the drama only kind, no romance or action, and very little funny moments, so you may not like it.


it's a nice movie though, just don't let the hype fool you.




EXTRACTION 2020:- 5/10

I watched "EXTRACTION", common people, this movie have one of the weakest plot I've ever seen in a movie, they just basically tried to jump to the action part of the movie in no time at all, the acting was just there, it just shows people just like to see a famous actor with a gun in his hands.

side note: it seems all the movies I've seen from Netflix with the lead actor as a producer turn out to be below expectations, with the exception of Dolemite, the rest seems to be just "meh".

You've just awoken some deep memories within me. I watched this movie circa 2005 and loved it to bits back then. Used to vibe to Hardball by Lil Bow Wow Ft. Lil Wayne, Lil Zane and Sammie which was its OST.

Hard to dive deep into my music archive in my HDD to fish out the song and blast it in my room tonight. Good memories. When "you know who" (let me not mention name to avoid spoiling it) died towards the end, I cried silently back then. It really touched me.

Damn, I love this movie. For old times sake, I'll look for it and download it again. Don't care about its low rating.
lol...

it's a very fine movie, I don't understand the ratings of most movies sometime sef.

I've actually seen the movie long ago, I just have this nostalgic urge to watch it again, and I can't seem to find it.

hello everyone..


I've been searching for the movie "hardball" Keanu Reeves, I can't seem to find it.

can someone please recommend a site for me.
thank you.

I don't know how to torrent, so normal download site will be very good.
thanks.

You don't pick people because they are educated, you pick people because of expertise and training(PhD). How many Nigerians have a PhD or are willing to have?
How many Nigerians have publications or conference presentations in International events?
If you are interested in lecturing then have publications, have a master's degree even complete a PhD, teach for some time then you would be qualified to be a visiting lecturer. A University cannot pick you because you are interested in lecturing.
They do advertise, check guardian newspaper but the requirements are lofty.
you stated really good points, I really wanted to learn with this and I did, thank you.

it isn't easy but we'll get there.

you know a lot of lecturers start with their bachelor's degree, can you explain to me why that is, since you stated good points, it doesn't seem the government follow what you said, or am I missing something?

justt:
If only you can be a bit more objective in your appraisal of the situation on ground! Firstly, the issue is about SSANU not ASUU and so the question you should ask yourself is: are SSANU members also working in multiple places like academic staff?

If SSANU is regretting its action now, shouldn't that be reason for any reasonable individual to reconsider this IPPIS issue? No, you will not do that. Apparently, you have been looking for an opportunity to rubbish ASUU just like others who are perpetually blinded to the truth!

I can't even sympathize with SSANU because their lack of cooperation with the academic staff brought them to this situation. The point is there is actually no hope for any country that rubbishes its intellectuals.

Now, let's look at your ridiculous claims of knowing of an academic staff working in up to 4 universities. Yes, let's work with your maximum of 4 and let's assume the worst scenario that this staff is a professor (because professor earns the highest salary). Let's also assume his salary is N500K. Mind you, most professors who earn up to this are already old and can barely run around as you claim.

With these four universities, this means your hypothetical and omnipresent lecturer is earning 2 million naira monthly. Actually, the man is earning 1.5M extra since he's entitled to one salary, at least.

Now, what you fail to realize is that almost 70% or more universities where lecturers do part-time jobs are either private or state universities and IPPIS cannot prevent that! I hope the picture is getting very clear to you? You seriously betrayed yourself by claiming your lecturer is working in four different federal universities! That claim is untrue and nothing but just the figment of your own biased imagination to mislead the ignorants like yourself.

This is what you and other members of the populace have not been told. IPPIS cannot and will not stop payment from state and private universities! So, what's the fuss all about? What's the total number of lecturers having multiple salaries from the the almighty FG?

Let's wake up and be realistic! The fight of ASUU is not just for her purse. The FG is not sincere and cannot be trusted. Thank God SSANU is getting to know that albeit somehow late. Once, the FG succeeds in subduing ASUU (God forbids), I'm afraid, the dying federal universities will be finally buried.
I only quote you because you seem to have an issue understanding what I wrote.. so re-read again, this time slowly. when you're done, re-quote me and this time, choose your words wisely, I'm not a kid that you could talk to as you please.


yes, I know a lecturer doing the part-time thing.in 4 different university, no imagination whatsoever, it's true.

sinkhole:
yes, some lecturers are doing it very wrong!
Some lecturers constantly travel between several states just to visit.
Let us even leave the qualities of their output, let us consider their own personal issues: at this period in Nigeria, they could be kidnapped, roads are not good they could have accident, what of fatigue to their own body? Many of them die prematurely because of overstretching their bodies!
exactly, I couldn't agree more.

jesmond3945:
you forget that when a lecturer has part time jobs it has to do with expertise. How many people can do the work of publish or perish? Lecturers are not being employed in the system and everyday we hear of new departments and you expect one lecturer to be teaching in more than one department because of lack of lecturers in a particular area of expertise. When you are in the system you would understand. You expect UI to pick a market woman to come and teach Computer vision when they can pick one full time lecturer from futo as adjunct. It is only in Nigeria that students are fed knowledge like babies that's why you cannot innovate anything. All over the world students teach themselves. The lecturer is just a guide.
I like how you explained your view, you prolly read a wrong meaning to what I meant, I'm not saying they should pick up someone from market na, common, we have people without jobs who are vast in a lot of things... educated people.

even those interested in lecturing.

but the government rarely recruit new lecturers, you won't even see the advert, you'll just hear of an opening and before you get to know more, the slot has been filled.

note: I'm not saying the adjunct needs to be abolished, I'm just saying they need to regulate it more, through a transparent means.

Thank you my guy, IPPIS can never stop corruption in the Universities or any other institutions!
If government want to stop visiting, they only need to tell the Governing Councils to make a University rule that no academic employee should go visiting in any other institution and they need to obliterate visiting from the requirements of NUC!
What some people do not know is that government themselves approves the visiting actions of the lecturers through NUC. The lecturers are not doing anything illegal by visiting!
I so agree with you.

yes, they are not doing anything illegal, doesn't mean, they are not doing it wrong though.

"the IPPIS was introduced to create transparency, yes, there are irregularities but that can definitely be sorted with time.". .
..... Sorted out when they have short doors for negotiation and explanations to the non teaching, maybe till when you hear they have went to their own strike after this Corona pandemic
they are already strike.

and yes, I believe they can still negotiate, the government will have to listen to them.

it's the way they're going about it that I believe it's wrong.

ogaontop:
The FG is also contributing to this, they are still in dialogue to convince the ASUU while the non teaching that joined, it has been hell, how then do you expect ASUU to join?

If IPPIS has been delivered as promised then you can start engaging ASUU to join, besides if FG is actually not very sincere, there still other ways to curb double employment
Like stopping all part time lecturing jobs in all federal universities, they know the names, account numbers and BVN of those they pay, they can trace it via this way.

Besides, some quarters of ASUU are evening accusing them of trying to create ghost workers through IPPIS because when fully implemented the school management won't even know the exact number of staff on it's payment record in Abuja!
yes, that's the issue with anything being implemented in Nigeria, they really find a way to do a wrong with what may be right.

selfish people everywhere, you won't know who is right... they always point fingers at each other.

For me, I agreed somehow with you on the issue of visiting, many lecturers overdo the thing! You talked about four, I can even tell you some do more than four cool but another point is that nobody will pay those visiting a full salary; for visiting I think they collect around 50% or so, of their basic salary. So, I am guessing the reason why some lecturers overdo it is because of their low salary! Yes, lecturers' salary is very low.
My main problem on this thread now is that SSANU was actually the people that raised issue here, why are we talking about ASUU instead of SSANU?
yes, I know their salary is low.



I guess people are frustrated with ASUU, SSANU already agreed before, now they back out, it's possible most people think they were influenced by ASUU's decision, that's why the attack is in ASUU.

The problem is not with the workers but the govt. There is no sincerity in the application of the system. The thieves in government are sabotaging government efforts
exactly, sabotaging the "governments" efforts.

I'm not supporting any wrong doing though, just stating my mind but many times the workers also bite more than they can chew.

You are wrong. IPPIS systems cuts off allowances, salaries. My wife is with them and I knew how much they cut off from her salary. Another challenge they have is the issue of loan repayment, most cooperative and banks lenders can no longer deduct from source. Coming to the multiple jobs as a lecturer...no institution can give permanent job to a lecturer already employed.
I'm looking at the ASUU, situation, not others, I don't know all about it, I'm just stating what I've heard about the ASUU even from lecturers themselves.

and sir, I'm not referring to any permanent job, I meant the "borrowed" ones.

[As a staff of one university, to qualify for adjunct or part lecturer in another university, you must be from from Senior Lecturer and above. Lecturers below the rank of senior lecturership do not go on adjunct. To get to a senior lecturer level, an academic staff must have served for an average 12 years with dues publication requirements. So my brother you can see that there is no correlation between fresh graduates not getting job and the practice of part-time or adjunct lecturing in the universities.
okay sir, no correlation, maybe, I'm not taking away from the fact though..

but those lecturers are taking too many of those "part time"..

It affects the students in the end sir.
Politics › Re: SSANU: FG Betrayed Our Trust On IPPIS by TopeQs:
wow....

just forget, even "senior" staffs don't know how not to show their selfish interest. IPPIS is just a way to curb staffs from collecting salary from more than one avenue, I don't know much about the senior staff but let me talk about the academic staff.

Let me paint a scenario for you, most federal Universities has a part time lecturer that has a full time job in another university, this is not bad but look at the case of some lecturers that go for part time lectures in as much as 3-4 other institutions, this way they are even making 3-4 people jobless because that could have been a job for fresh graduates.

I believe the IPPIS is meant to cover just one more visiting apart from your salary, ASUU will never tell you this but I will, those lecturers that have 2-3 part-time lecturing job will not want IPPIS because it will block the salary of the part-time job.
I can tell you that I know of a lecturer that has 4 part time lecturing job in another federal university, please, how will such a person have time for his own full time job, he will be joggling within states just to meet the other while not being able to put a focus on any of them, I was taught by one of them and he never had our time, then we run marathon class so as to cover up for his absenteeism.

ASUU are just motivated by selfish interest, they will never tell you this, this is not the first time that the government is changing their payment system, and it's not like their salary will be reduced, it is just those with too much of an extra work that will be affect.

the IPPIS was introduced to create transparency, yes, there are irregularities but that can definitely be sorted with time.

it is only the government that can be castigated by changing the way they want to pay their staff, could that happen to a private firm?

ponder on this.


modified again: to some of the people quoting me, if you can't quote without starting your sentence or including an insult, then you should be so ashamed of yourself.

I'm not supporting any manipulation, I'm just saying that some workers bite more than they can chew and that's why some don't want the IPPIS, I'm not saying all, I've spoken with a lot of lecturers about the IPPIS and most of them give me this same reason as why most of them wouldn't join the IPPIS.

I know of those who joined since and have gotten their salary, no reduction that they are shouting about.
