SeverusSnape:
You're so so wrong, who told you Russian weapons are "too costly "?...For your information, Russian weapons are cheap especially the Kalashnikov, American weapons are more hi-tech, so they're more expensive, and Who told you "china weapon no too strong".....Do you think their weapons are those phones you buy in the market?

Anything from Russia don't have parts replacement hence some countries avoid them

Brozok:
two things crossed my mind and that is addax email is addaxpetroleum.com and the used info@addaxpetroleum.com.ng to send me d mail if it were truely addax i believe it will be info@addaxpetroleum.com not ng as stated but on the contrary no scammer wil use such an expensive area as park view estate in ikoyi as an office except the intend to move immediately they are done wit there evil intention. Ikoyi is too expensive for a scam. I stil welcome ur taught on this as i was expecting dem to use a mainland adresss or foreign address.

My man don't be desperate it's a scam... read my earlier post I told you, you'll be asked to pay certain amount of money to get some stupid papers called certificate n that just happened, you think it will end there, once you start making payments it won't stop until you're empty... You shouldn't deliberate on scam, you should frown at it n ignore it...
But it's your choice not mine... Talking about expensive location, that's not new. My friend that was victimise got d first call from someone whose well known to be influential in my area but it turned out that he never knew what was happening. He was used because of his position to achieved their evil deeds... Real scammers can use any place n anyone to achieve their plan. "You spend money to get money my friend"
I HOPE THIS HELP

Getting a great job has never been more difficult. For both the job seeker and the hiring company, the job search is often an exercise in wasted time and money.

With the advent of the computer, many people have become faceless in the business world. Technological advances like the cell phone, PDA, Blackberry, VOIP, instant messaging and blogging have removed the personality of the user behind the technology.

Anyone who is single can tell you how difficult it is to “date” on-line because what you see is not what you get. On-line dating is populated with married people and with people pretending to be younger, smarter, richer, taller and more interesting. The same is true in the job hunt.

How can you stand out as an individual when you literally can be anyone you want to be? Technology has removed the layer of “intuition” that has served human beings so well for millenniums. Intuition allowed human beings to assess true intentions and threat level as individuals.

This anonymity has translated into an unforeseen problem for businesses. As businesses turn to more and more high-tech methods for weeding out risky employees, they are actually compounding their risk. No “data-based” determination (resume scanning, background check, psychological test, credit report, etc.) can determine a suitable fit or talent match like a good old face to face sit down with someone.

The problem is we don’t do that much anymore. Like anything you only do occasionally, you get rusty at it. We’ve allowed technology to make our decisions on people we plan to work with every day. The old expression “he looks good on paper” is appropriate here. It has become very easy and convenient to manufacture yourself on “paper.” There simply is no substitute for personal assessment of potential employees early on in the game. The human brain can “see” and process things a computer cannot.

Many extremely good job candidates are eliminated early on by machines simply because they did not use the right keywords in their resume. A human can see a potentially good fit where a computer cannot. Ultimately, we hire people because we like their personality traits, not what their resume tells us. Beyond a basic level of qualification, all candidates are the same until you spend a few minutes with them.

Multitudes of companies are lamenting about the lack of “good” candidates. Jobs go vacant and companies turn to outsourcing in an attempt to find “suitable” people to do their work. Meanwhile, thousands and thousands of dynamite people are under or unemployed wondering why no one wants them. It’s time to shift our thinking to consider the “hidden” talent market out there. The ideal candidate doesn’t always come packaged quite the way hiring managers envision him or her.

For lower level positions, consider training bright and eager candidates to take on the job regardless of employment history. Consider their personal strengths rather than past jobs. A great candidate for sales may have worked at a theme park herding and controlling people getting on rides. The most important skill they learned was to be patient with many different types of people while standing in the heat. A patient salesman is a blessing to any business because they won’t get easily frustrated.

For upper level positions, consider taking candidates from other industries and those with “unusual” backgrounds. These people really have learned something just by working in a different area and many can bring a fresh perspective to your business. Some businesses have already discovered that hiring mid-managers from other industries allows them to tap into the best practices of those industries in addition to their own industries, essentially doubling their know-how and increasing their ability to adjust to changing conditions. While it may seem counterintuitive, an ideal candidate is someone who was laid-off in another industry that is now struggling. That manager can bring insight into what didn’t work and what went wrong that your company can leverage into an advantage over competitors in your own industry.

But what’s a company to do when it posts a job and gets 12,000 resumes for a single job? No human wants to slog through all that. Which is why a change is needed in the way we recruit employees. The employment process should be both easier and harder. Use technology only as a rudimentary screening tool.

1. Screen resumes to meet the absolute minimum requirements of the job. If the job requires a bachelor’s degree screen out anyone without one but don’t screen for a nice to have master’s degree when a bachelor’s will do. Consider too that some of the best candidates are those who have been working for a living rather than going to school to get advanced degrees. Experience really does count more than education. Unless a position absolutely requires additional education, such as a medical degree for a physician, put more weight on experience.

2. Ask candidates to send in a short paragraph or two to summarize their work experience in lieu of resumes. This one change can eliminate 95% of the resumes that are fired off by job seekers applying to every job he or she sees rather than to the ones they are truly qualified for. Ask a specific and relevant question to assess professional knowledge and to insure the candidates aren’t using a shotgun approach on your job posting. Technology can easily screen out those not complying with specific instructions. This is also a great way for the candidate to assert their personality and show how they think and problem solve.

3. Get personal and professional references earlier in the interview process. Ask for references before you conduct personal interviews. A quick phone call can eliminate a costly on-site visit and can give you a more intimate look at a candidate who may not be “ideal” on paper but is a winner in the workplace.

4. Review the resumes by hand. This may sound old-fashioned but the human eye and brain can screen in candidates that a technology screen might screen out. Some of the best people have gaps in employment, have short tenures on jobs or lack the paper credentials that may eliminate them from the process. Keep in mind that good people still get laid off, have personal situations that cause employment gaps, go to work for companies that close their doors, get sick, fail at their own business, and return to the workforce after raising children or caring for sick relatives. A human being can discern a great potential employee at a glance where a computer can only screen for what it’s been told to look for. Think about your own career history (or your spouse’s, friend’s, co-worker’s, etc.) and ask yourself if you could pass a computer’s rigid standard of qualification. Probably not. A human is who believed in you and hired you. And ultimately, is whom you’ll work with, even if you work with computers.

5. Don’t use formalized HR processes to interview. Have a conversation instead of conducting Human Resource driven interviews. HR driven interviews tend to reduce candidates to the lowest common denominator, resulting in canned answers and unimaginative problem solving. Nothing reveals the true character of a person like sitting down and having a casual conversation with them. This allows you to see what the candidate is like in their natural state, not a rehearsed state where the best candidates can’t really shine with their wit, charisma and intelligence. The candidates who “act” the best tend to do well in standardized and HR driven interviews. The most creative and versatile candidates get bored during the interview process and tend to come across as less competent or less serious.

6. Use task driven versus HR driven interviews. If your company insists on using an interview process that allows the candidates to be compared to one another in some kind of systematic way, consider using a task driven evaluation rather than a question and answer type format. Assign candidates real world tasks that will allow the real stars to shine. But don’t make the task so difficult the candidate feels like they are being set up for failure. The task should be a medium level assignment requiring the use of 80% of the skill set required for the position. Remember not to include industry specific, or worse yet, company specific information in the evaluation, including abbreviations or other company lingo. The candidate should also be given the opportunity after completing the task to give the hiring manager (not the HR manager) feedback to assure that the task was properly understood and to allow the hiring manager insights into the candidate’s thought processes. Sometimes the thought process is more important than getting the answer “right.”

7. Use psychological testing to gain insight, not to eliminate candidates. Some companies feel they need to use psychological testing to determine if a candidate is a good fit in the company. Unless you are hiring astronauts, air traffic controllers or some other highly stressful job where the person hired needs to be very calm, skip the mental testing. Oddballs often make very good employees if the fit between their work and their area of interest is high. It’s more important to understand the candidate than to try to eliminate all but a few personality types. When you eliminate people who are “different” or whom you think don’t fit your company culture, you also eliminate the most creative and innovative components from your workforce. Conversely, if you only screen for highly creative people, you’ll have no one to keep the rest of your people grounded in reality when it comes to day to day operations like accounting and facility management. Embrace and work with people of all different proclivities.

Using a human centered approach to hiring makes sense. We have to work with people every day but more importantly, your customer base includes a wide variety of people. Don’t ever forget that people like to do business with people like themselves and that covers a lot of ground. Don’t limit your business by just hiring people like yourself.

MY DEAR OP IF YOU ARE DOUBT,U CAN TRY THEM OUT

WASHINGTON (AP) — An experimental Ebola vaccine appears safe and triggered signs of immune protection in the first 20 volunteers to test it, U.S. researchers reported Wednesday.

The vaccine is designed to spur the immune system's production of anti-Ebola antibodies, and people developed them within four weeks of getting the shots at the National Institutes of Health. Half of the test group received a higher-dose shot, and those people produced more antibodies, said the study published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Some people also developed a different set of virus-fighting immune cells, named T cells, the study found. That may be important in fending off Ebola, as prior research found that monkeys protected by the vaccine also had that combination response.

Stimulating both types of immune response is "a promising factor," said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of NIH's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, whose employees led the work.

The researchers reported no serious side effects. But two people who received the higher-dose vaccine briefly spiked fevers — one above 103 degrees — which disappeared within a day.


Earlier this month, Fauci told Congress this first-stage testing was promising enough that the U.S. planned much larger studies in West Africa, starting in Liberia in early January, to try to prove whether the vaccine really works.

Scientists are racing to develop ways to prevent or treat the virus that has killed more than 5,600 people in West Africa, most of them in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.

Wednesday's publication offered scientific details about the initial testing of the vaccine candidate furthest along, one being developed by NIH and GlaxoSmithKline. Additional safety studies are underway here and abroad. A different Canadian-made vaccine also has begun small safety studies.

Many questions remain as larger studies are being designed, including the best dose and how soon protection may begin, cautioned Dr. Daniel Bausch, a Tulane University Ebola specialist who wasn't involved in the study. Plus, monkey research suggests a booster shot will be needed for long-term protection.

"The road is still long and there are many challenges but we are nevertheless one step closer to a solution," he wrote in an accompanying editorial.


I know many will ask this simple question, why make immune vaccine instead of cure for the already affected people?

The richest state in Nigeria with the largest budget aka Akwa Ibom did not build 1 single classroom and your other PDP governors haven't built 1 single school or commissioned any meaningful project since independence...

Look in the mirror. Food for thought..

I stay in Rivers state and I can tell you that Ameachi is a failure... Even d worst pdp governor in d person of Uduaghan of Delta state has built very good buildings for. secondary schools in Delta state... but you won't hear it because he is not a whistle blower like Ameachi... I'm not after political parties... am after ppl that can perform and so far I have respect for some APC governors especially Oshomole of Edo state... I in person don't like Jonathan because he has failed in so many ways esp in issue of corruption... but honestly speaking among those coming out, who is better? none... we don't need Jonathan neither do we need Atiku, Buhari and the likes of them

frustratedman:
This small boy celebrating while I am in pain. I am frustrated by God's negligence. He makes people who don't serve him happy and we that serve him are ignored to our unhappiness. God will always be my enemy because he proven to be the most wicked thing I ever knew. I challenge God to kill me if he doesn't want to intervene in my life. Mad God. Wicked God. Foolish God

I wanted to ignore you but I changed my mind. Honestly, what do you think you just typed? I've not met you but I believe you have a hand because those without hands can't typed. You hav a phone that can browse that means obviously you're not that poor because you even have data on that phone... Job lost everything and his wife tried to convince him to curse God n die but he refused. And here you are healthy typing this... Sometimes I just wonder the kind of generation we have. I once heard of God tempting us to test our faith but it's so unfortunate that we the ones presently tempting God to know if He'll fail... Note this, no one TEMPT God, whether you worship Him or not, whether He bless you or not, whether He grant you your heart desires or not He remains God!
If you're looking for pity for someone to come to your aid, that's not the way to go about it,worship Him because He's God n not because of what you want from Him... Then His light will shine upon
By the way, delete the rubbish you posted because it's not something one should see and ask for forgiveness
