Naturalclown: Hello Nairalanders! It would be better to voice out in humility than to perish with pride. My names are Babajide Moses Ekundayo and I am 18.
Actually, I graduated from high school two years back, took Jamb twice, passed Jamb twice, took UI post Jamb twice, didn't meet cutoff and not admitted. After my second failed attempt, my dad got tired of me and told me I should find my way that he can't keep on wasting his hard-earned money on me.
I tried to find a job and unfortunately, I got one. The reason it was unfortunate is that the man I worked for as a blogger didn't pay me my first month salary in two months so I quit(he payed the money little by little).
Ever since I left him, I didn't look for any other job cos most bosses are physical and financial oppressors. Then, I looked for ways be my Boss... I then decided to go into online Job. I told my dad but he wasn't even willing to get me a laptop. I want to kick-start a powerful blog and I have found an awesome niche. When I even call my uncles, they'll tell me that they will call back yet they won't. If I chat with them, they'll snub me. So I need someone on Nairaland to please help me with a loan. I will be the collateral and would pay back with interest in one and half years. Please!
With this, I should be able to sponsor myself to school after repaying. Thanks.
no one TRUSTS a FELLOW NAIRALANDER to give you cash o. God will use someone that knows you physically..... be strong
Arisha: Hey everyone, okay so I don't know where to start but since I got married last year on August I've been seriously disturbed with weird things happening around the house although I ignore them completely now but the very first night we moved in to our new house I had a really strange feeling like it wasn't just us there, I had the sense that the house is filled with ppl but they're just like invisible but I could feel it. weird I know!! That's what I thought to myself although my husband was being all romantic nd everything since it was our first night together so he didn't take me serious or wasn't just listening, then comes daylight nd my husband ofc got up got ready nd was leaving for work I woke up from the sound of a heavy rain andwinds slamming the windows of our room , I forgot all that weird feels I had last night but as soon as my hubby said "I'm late gotta go" BAM! it all came bk as I was watching him leave nd saying bye in my mind I was begging him to stay!
Okay so this is a morning I will never forget! First I tried to shake off everything in my head nd decided to get fresh pray, play quran on the TV and just have a normal day! even though I wanted to explore our new house so bad I was just scared as a kid. so we still don't have Internet that i knew! But no cable ?! I was so disappointed nd kept wondering how was I gonna play the quran then I remembered that I had few surahs downloaded on my phone so I play them for few minutes nd then ofc my phone needed to be charged. took out my charger from my bag, now I need to find an outlet in the living room cuz I didn't wanna go back to our room since the door to outside is at the living room loll!
Anyway I couldnt find any so plugged out the TVs nd used it nd as I was plugging my phone to the charger I felt a really really strong presence in the living room like I didn't even have any thoughts in my head it was from NOWHERE!! nd bang the bathroom door opens nd closes back and the VERY second this happened I open the door and took off! Now I couldn't go outside cuz I wasn't covered so I was just standing in the hallway of the building wondering what to do.
So i rushed back inside grabbed my phone nd went right bk to the hallway lol i still remember how weak my leggs felt that day , so i didn't know what to do other than to call my mom and she pittyed me she told me to read aytul kurs myself go bk inside nd to call my husband nd request if he could come home early so I did that I called him told him everything nd he agreed ofc but my mom told me something that made me even more scared
She said they love messing with newlyweds! So it's normal but I didn't have to let them in nd scare me!? Anyway I kept reading aytul kurs felt better nd went bk inside and since then it's been every other day now even my hubby is scared to be home alone cuz everything happens next to us now with our eyes wide OPEN! Like for example we hear stuff been moved from the guest room nd we go in nd the table isn't at its place so we just close the door nd pretend it never happened and then the water taps opened, when we at our room chillin we hear everything from the kitchen like plates nd spoons being used we hear jars falling on the ground etc etc..
And the CRAZIEST thing is as soon as we play quran on the TV the channel changes like it's only when the quran chanel is on nd not any other one! This morning it muted itself and that was new! M used to everything now but we decided to move out this Month cuz my hubby is going nuts nd he doesn't even has to stay home all day nd deal with everything like me heck I can't even leave for a minute to the store when he's home nd I find him at the hallway!!
Anyway im just hoping they won't won't follow us to our new house cuz I'm seriously done with it although I love this apartment nd we won't be ever lucky to get one like it at its price so I really hoped anyone could advise me on how to get rid of them.

authe911: I guess it's time to ask this question, we don't even know which is which or maybe there is another belief in the entertainment industry. Nigeria identifies 3 believes: Christians, Muslim and indigenous belief....where do they fall
How is that our business in these economic trial times. It's only a man who is less busy and has room in his head that can rent a space in his head to think such thoughts that add no value to anyone's pocket or life. Pls how do we handle this fuel scarcity
LORDSAMURAI: Have you in anyway experience the supernatural? let me share my experience, early this morning around 5am in the morning, the wind was blowing heavily as if the world wants to come to an end, that kind of wind that makes noise at night when it blows, iv been awake since 4am though so i decided to walk outside not minding the time of the day, its a two story building so i was in the last floor upwards so i decided to come outside and enjoy the wind a little and low and behold when i looked up i saw a man hanging in the air folding his two legs, he was just there then it dawn on me that he is the cause of how heavily the wind have been blowing without rain, i was just looking upwards, the sight was scary and unbelievable, his hands was spread like he is relising the heavy wind in the enviroment, he looked down and saw me, his eyes were white shinning bright, i was not scared a even for a bit but he faced up again and concentrate in what ever he was doing, dats hw i watch him for some time till he dissapeard.
What movie is this..... If you say it's real then you also are weird or under the influence of something.
oladepoluwa: Majority of the bookmakers accept Nigerian credit cards for payment, except betfair. so to fund betfair, you use either neteller or international wire transfer
So if we what you to do all these for us. How much would you charge
THANK YOU FOR THIS SIMPLE AND SHORT TUTORIAL, PLS AS NIGERIANS, CAN YOU SHOW US EXACTLY HOW TO REGISTER AND FUND THESE FOREIGN BOOKMARKERS? DO THEY ACCEPT OUR ORDINARY VERVE ATM CARDS OR HOW DO WE GO ABOUT IT.... OR WHAT BANK DID YOU USE... OR WHAT KIND OF ATM
emmyluizzz: she is just perfect.....de type of gal I like.....Bt is only a crush aha....Lolsss....Tsephanyah
Grow up pls and get a life. Do your crush offline ND plan for marriage. If you gat no plans to marry her don't waste the time and life of another man's wife
Thomsyne: The world of physics was abuzz last week with the historic announcement of the first-ever detection of gravitational waves. But why is it such a big deal? By Sabrina Stierwalt, PhD. on February 24, 2016
Last week marked the historic announcement of the first detection of gravitational waves. A big press conference was held, and physicists around the world celebrated. The discovery was even compared to Galileo looking through a telescope for the first time. So why all the fanfare? Why are gravitational waves such a huge deal?

1. GRAVITATIONAL WAVES ARE AN ENTIRELY NEW WAY OF OBSERVING THE UNIVERSE
Astronomers observe the universe across the electromagnetic spectrum, from X-ray and ultraviolet through optical and down to radio frequencies. Emission in each of these frequency ranges provides different information and thus a different perspective on our astronomical points of interest. For example, we know that there are millions of stars clustered toward the center of our Galaxy which emit mostly at optical wavelengths, but there is also a lot of dust near the Galactic center as well. So to study those dust-enshrouded stars, astronomers must observe them at either infrared wavelengths (where the dust emits) or radio wavelengths (which can penetrate through the dust more effectively than shorter optical wavelengths). All of these wavelengths offer a unique perspective on the universe, but they are all the same kind of light, electromagnetic radiation, and so behave in similar, understood ways. Gravitational waves are an entirely new phenomenon different from anything on the electromagnetic spectrum. In 1915, Albert Einstein proposed a radically different way of looking at gravity with his theory of general relativity. Rather than thinking of gravity as a force pushing and pulling massive objects in different directions, he described gravity as being manifested in a curvature of spacetime. In other words, the space (and time) around a massive object is curved, which then dictates how passing objects can move through that space. This may sound crazy, but we can actually observe many of the effects predicted by Einstein’s theory. For example, general relativity informs us that time passes more slowly by an ever so small margin down here on Earth than it does for GPS satellites in orbit, an effect known as time dilation, a result of the curvature of spacetime. Without adjusting for this small time difference in our satellite communications, we would never get to where we are trying to go. A consequence of the general relativity framework is that when objects accelerate through this warping of spacetime, they produce ripples known as gravitational waves. These waves propagate through space, compressing it in one direction and stretching it in another. The frequencies predicted for these fluctuations are within the human hearing range. We can hear gravitational waves and already scientists and artists have teamed up to explore other artistic interpretations of their sound. So why did it take 100 years to detect them? These ripples are tiny, on order of a thousandth of the size of a proton nucleus, so we need a pretty violent event to occur to produce enough of them for us to detect. We also need, of course, a very sensitive detector.
2. The Instrument That Made the Gravitational Wave Detection Is the Most Precise Measuring System Ever Built
To detect such tiny distortions in spacetime, physicists use a technique called laser interferometry. A focused beam of light is sent in different directions to bounce back and forth between two sets of mirrors before being sent to a detector. If a gravitational wave passes by the interferometer during all of this bouncing, the distance between the mirrors will change ever so slightly and this change will translate to a difference in the two signals as measured by the detector. Not only is the signal from gravitational waves incredibly weak, there is also a significant amount of competing noise attempting to drown it out. To increase the detectability of such a signal against the background noise, the path the laser travels must be a long one. The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), the instrument that made the historic detection, is four kilometers long on each side. The detectors are further suspended in the air in hopes of isolating the slightly faster wiggles due to gravitational waves from terrestrial interference. To further fight back against false detections, LIGO has not one but two detectors: one in Hanford, Washington and the other in Livingston, Louisiana. Detecting the same signal at both, widely separated locations would mean that signal was likely not a local one. And that is exactly what happened on September 14, 2015—a signal with the precise characteristics predicted for gravitational waves was observed at both detectors only milliseconds apart.
3. We Now Know That Massive Black Holes Can Merge to Create Even Bigger Black Holes
Famous theoretical physicist and author Kip Thorne described the event that produced the detected gravitational waves as a “violent storm in the fabric of space and time”. Around 1.3 billion years ago, when multicellular life was just beginning here on Earth, two black holes orbiting each other began to close in on one another. As these dense objects got closer, they began to accelerate to nearly half the speed of light in the presence of their shared strong gravitational field – the perfect mix for producing gravitational waves. From fitting the waveform of the gravitational wave detection and comparing it to simulations done with a supercomputer, astronomers can tell that the two black holes were originally 29 and 36 times the mass of our Sun. They merged to form a 62 solar mass black hole which means that an amount three times the mass of our Sun was emitted away as energy in the form of gravitational waves, all in the 20 milliseconds it took for the collision to happen! That’s a power output of 50 times greater than all of the power put out by all of the stars in the universe put together. Before this first detection, astronomers were not even sure that mergers between black holes existed, and now the details of this particular event are known to a high degree of certainty.
4. Hundreds of People Had to Take a Huge Risk to Make This Detection Possible
Einstein predicted the existence of gravitational waves 100 years ago but at the time, there was significant doubt that such weak signals could ever be detected. In 1992, LIGO became the largest investment the National Science Foundation had ever made. The investment was a risky one–the existence of gravitational waves was only theoretical, and their signal, even if they were real, would be impossible to detect without the construction of an instrument larger than any other measurement device previously built. In fact, the initial operations of LIGO between 2002 and 2010 came up empty-handed. However, when the new and improved advanced LIGO came online with its increased sensitivity, it detected a signal that was so clear it could be seen by eye almost immediately.
5. With Our New Ears on the Universe, We Will Likely Make Discoveries We Haven’t Even Thought of Yet
Arguably the most exciting part of this new discovery is that it’s only the beginning! The ease with which LIGO detected the signal suggests that there will be many more to come and that we won’t have to wait long for them either. The LIGO detectors are not even at their full planned sensitivity yet and so detections will get easier. The success of LIGO will also likely help other, similar projects get funded, and in fact it likely already has with the prime minister of India voicing support for LIGO India. Other efforts include KAGRA in Japan, VIRGO in Italy, and the already operational GEO600 in Germany. Using multiple detectors in concert will further help pinpoint the origin of the gravitational wave signals. The LISA project (i.e., the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna), which has experienced funding woes since NASA bowed out in 2011 and the project was picked up entirely by European agencies, would also send gravitational wave detectors into space. This would open up the possibility of detecting signals with much longer periods (on the order of minutes or hours rather than milliseconds) not currently possible with LIGO. Gravitational waves are predicted to arise from co-orbiting black holes like the system detected in September 2015, but also from binary systems with other compact objects like neutron stars. But gravitational waves are also fundamentally different from the electromagnetic radiation that we know so well. So really, who knows what we will find?

So how does this affect us. How does it affect the economy of naija or the price of Naira to dollar...... Is elon musk not in South Africa with his solar and electric cars that travel almost as fast as bullets? Yet how did that make buhari even notice him or how did it change our economy. Pls pls pls post solutions here that can make nigeria have hope. Not some Abstract progress we may never experience unless we leave nigeria
I call them the unintentional rescuers because they also came into sports betting as business people also with the purpose of making money, but they came in another form of which they had no intention of rescuing we bettors, but they did unintentionally’ They are popularly called BETTING EXCHANGES and the only example of them that I have for you is betfair. WHY ARE THEY THE UNINTENTIONAL RESCUERS I personally call them that because that is exactly what they have done for We bettors, how? Betting exchanges offer a form of bet that bookmakers don’t offer. The bookmakers offer only one form of bet called the "back bets" while the betting exchanges offer two forms of bets which is the "back bets" and the "lay bets" BACK BETS AND LAY BETS A BACK BET: A back bet is a form of bet where you place a bet on an event to happen, for example if a match ARSENAL VS. SUNDERLAND is to come up, when you BACK ARSENAL TO WIN it simply means you said ARSENAL WILL WIN if Arsenal wins that means you have won the bet and your outcome (stake + profit) will be added to your account. A LAY BET: A lay bet is a form of bet where you place a bet on an event not to happen, also using the example above, when you LAY ARSENAL TO WIN it simply means that you said ARSENAL WILL NOT WIN. But note that in a lay bet your stake is not what is removed from your account after bet, what is deducted from your account is called liability, liability=winnings – stake, so if you win, your winnings is added to your account and if you lose the liability deducted is lost.
IN OTHER WORDS.... LAY BET LIABILITY= WHAT I WOULD HAVE WON IF I WON minus WHAT I STAKED....right?
myztarcasy: hi nairalanders am myztar_casy and here are some of my videos i would love to share with you ....this is what happens to you when you try to steal from a benin friend!!!! kindly support me by subscribing and sharing my videos....thanks love you all....
i dont know why people add this stuff after posting on nairaland but lemme just do it.... cc : Lalasticlala
