Business / Ten Apple Product You Should Not Purchase by Tynover(m): 8:28pm On Aug 13, 2018 |
We think of Apple as being at the absolute cutting-edge of technology, but the truth is that when you walk into an Apple Store you are in fact surrounded by a lot of old, and even outdated devices that are badly in need of a refresh. This guide helps you navigate yourself around Apple’s lineup when thinking about making a purchase. iPhone 8/8 Plus With new models expected to land in September, if you’ve managed to hold out buying an iPhone 8/8 Plus so far, I’d suggest waiting a few more weeks. iPhone X If you think the iPhone 8/8 Plus is too old, remember the iPhone X is only a month younger. If you are going to put down a thousand dollars for a smartphone, I’d recommend making sure that you get as much life out of it as possible. Since the iPhone X was unveiled alongside the iPhone 8/8 Plus, and the expected unveiling of the next iPhone is just around the corner, it might be a good idea to hold on to your cash for a few more weeks and see what Apple has to offer when it comes to the next generation iPhone X. iPad Pro A year is a long time, and both models are rumored to be getting an upgrade soon. It’s been over a year since either the 10.5-inch of the 12.9-inch versions, and since they are both rumored to be getting an upgrade, it might be worth holding out on a purchase AirPods Hints: Buy now and you might regret it when a newer version drops. With rumors of updated circulation airpods, now may not be the time to shell out $159 on Apple’s wireless earphones. ALSO READ In The Queue - The Introduction There are also a whole raft of other earphones out there that are worth taking a look at. iMac Hints: It’s hard to recommend buying a computer that’s over a year old. No matter how much Apple’s new “Behind the Mac” ads ty to convince me that Macs have a longer lifespan than a PC, I still find it hard to recommend people spend top dollar on technology that’s over a year old. Last updated: June 2017, with the refresh bringing with it Intel Kaby Lake processors, updated displays, and faster SSDs storage iPhone SE See more: https://www.kulturerepublic.com/2018/08/13/ten-apple-product-you-should-not-purchase/

Educational Services / 9 Things You Don’t Know About Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Nigerian Writer . by Tynover(m): 3:52pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was born to Igbo parents, Grace Ifeoma and James Nwoye Adichie on 15 September 1977 in Enugu, Nigeria. While her family’s ancestral hometown is Abba in Anambra State, she grew up in Nsukka, in the house formerly occupied by Nigerian writer, Chinua Achebe. 1.Adichie is married but prefers to be addressed as “Miss”. It does not cross the mind of a lot of people that this great woman is married. This may be attributed to the strange fact that she never dropped her maiden name, neither did she attach her husband’s name to it. She openly warned journalists some time against that, stressing that it is western culture for a woman to abandon her name for her husband’s. 2.Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie consciously metamorphosed into a fashion icon. When Adichie first burst onto the writing scene in the U.S, she tried to dress more subdued in an attempt to be taken seriously, but soon realized that her personal style had the right to shine through. She once implied that life in America made her make conscious efforts to create an identity which reflected well in her fashion sense. 3.Celebrities are in love with her So many celebrities love her work including Beyonce whose song, “Flawless,” included an excerpt from a talk that Adichie gave at TEDxEuston in December 2012. The talk, entitled “We Should All be Feminists,” discussed the way women are raised and what it means to be a feminist. “We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller,” Adichie said. “We say to girls: ‘You can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful, but not too successful. Otherwise, you will threaten the man…’” Adichie defined a feminist as a person who believes in the social, political, and economic equality of the S*Xes. Also, Hollywood superstar, Will Smith, is a fan of her work. 4.Half of a Yellow Sun Her second novel, Half of a Yellow Sun (2007), which was first published as a short story, has been adapted into a movie of the same name. The film adaptation, directed by Biyi Bandele, features Hollywood acts like Chiwetel Ejiofor, Thandie Newton, Anika Noni Rose and Nollywood’s Genevieve Nnaji. The book is set before and during the Biafran war, and its title reflects the flag of the short-lived independent nation. 5.Her heroes are ordinary women In an interview with Vogue MagazineWhen she was asked if she sees herself as a feminist heroine, she said “The real heroes are the nameless women in the market, who are holding their families together. They are traders and their husbands are out drinking somewhere… It’s those women I admire. I am full of admiration for them.” 6.She dropped out of medical school to pursue dream as a Writer . Following her father’s wishes, Adichie enrolled in medical school in Nigeria, but dropped out at age 19 to attend Drexel University in Philadelphia on a scholarship. She ended up graduating from Eastern Connecticut State University with a degree in communication and political science. 7.Family of Nerds After coming across Chimamanda’s family members, we became convinced that brilliance and strong intelligence run in their blood. Chimamanda’s father, James, who is now retired, worked at the University of Nigeria, located in Nsukka. He was Nigeria’s first professor of statistics, and later became Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the University. Her mother, Ifeoma was the first female registrar at the same institution. Adichie’s grandfather died during the Nigerian civil war (1967-1970) in a refugee camp. The civil war experiences and other things really influenced her life and of course, her writing style. 8.Chimamanda Has a daughter Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Dr. Ivara’s marriage is blessed with a lovely daughter who arrived in 2015. Unlike her mother who grew up in Nigeria, Chimamanda’s daughter, whose name is not known to the media, is fast growing up in two cultures and could likely be exposed to slightly diverging social expectations. 9.Her instagram Account is been run by her cousins Adichie is not the social type for the media, perhaps she has a lot on her plate, than to bother about social media accounts. No wonder she said in a convocation speech she gave to a university ” I’ll always tell my cousins to put the Damn phone down “She has never encourage a culture intwerwind by an addiction to to the use of social media.

Education / Can Corruption Be Endless In Africa? (episode 1) by Tynover(m): 10:01am On Nov 30, 2016 |
Everybody is equal, and everybody has his/her own talent. Some are talented to be famous while others are talented to be infamous but they become famous and makes life nasty. I may be wrong after saying this because the way we reason is different. The way a banker thinks differs from the way a cobbler thinks, a cobbler thinking may be positive while a banker's own may be negative, vice-versa, that shows that we are all different.So I hope the ladies and gentlemen reading this won't feel molested because my opinion maybe opposite to yours. I shall speak my opinion freely without reverse. The question before the audience is not a surprise to we Africans for my own opinion I think we Africans can solve our problems. It's only this way that we can hope to arrive at the truth, and fulfill the great responsibilities which we hold to God and our continent. Should I keep back my opinions at such time, through fear of giving offense. I should consider myself treason toward my continent Africa. For my part, whatever problem it may bring to me, I am willing to know the truth. I know that I can't just judge the future presently but I think I can judge what has happened in the past. Is it the quote that says " Africans are black and their thinking is also black". Can't we urge to prevent this quote from not affecting us .Let's look at other continent like North America, South America, Europe, Australia, and the most strict enforcing of law continent Asia they are not corrupt their leaders think about their followers, but in Africa we don't think of other people when we are in positions we think of how we can embezzle money, how our future and great grandchildren will be bright. We are selfish in Africa, other continent says that our continent is among the developing continent but we don't think of that. We have people people that want the continent to develop but they don't have the power they will either be killed or stopped from achieving their goals. Corruption starts when we were still an infant till now. It lives in man day by day just like blood circulates through man vain. (To be continued) Comment if you have the same view or you are opposing this view. SOURCE: http://afrikastyle..com.ng/2016/11/can-corruption-be-endless-in-africa.html |
