Car Talk / Re: How To Survive 10 Driving Emergencies by UsamaRafiq: 9:50am On Feb 22
AutosBay:
Emergency 1: The Accident You Don't See Coming
The best way to survive an accident is not to get into one. Start by accepting responsibility for everything that happens when you're in the driver seat. If there's a wreck, you are not an accident victim, but instead an accident participant. It is your job, therefore, to avoid red-light runners, an oncoming driver making a left turn in front of you, sudden freeway jam-ups and those drivers who are composing text messages as they travel the freeway.

See problems before they become emergencies by looking far ahead, while using your peripheral vision to keep position in your lane. Here's how to ensure that you're looking far enough ahead: Use a dry-erase marker to draw a horizontal line on your windshield that crosses just under your pupils. On level ground, you should rarely look below that line. In tight traffic, look through the windshield of the vehicle ahead, or position your car a few inches to that driver's left to see brake lights ahead of him.

Process what you see. When the brake lights of all the cars ahead of you flash, something is happening ahead. Slow down.

Emergency 2: "Invisible" Pedestrians, Motorcycles and Small Vehicles
Approximately 36 percent of crashes involved a vehicle that was turning or crossing an intersection, according to statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Because today's cars often have thick roof pillars to hold side curtain airbags, it's a lot harder to spot small cars, motorcycles and pedestrians that are about to cross your path than it used to be. So before you turn the steering wheel, look where you want to go. Remember this mnemonic: BLT, which in this case stands for brake, look and turn. This often means looking through the side windows. For U-turns, it requires looking through the rear passenger window. Even if you're travelling straight, a quick glance through the side glass before you cross an intersection will reveal red-light runners and stop-sign skippers.

Emergency 3: Panic Stops
Imagine the freeway is completely blocked. A big rig has spilled its load, a motorist has run out of fuel in the middle lane of rush-hour traffic or a herd of mule deer is crossing I-70 in Utah. You must stop NOW. If your vehicle has computer-controlled antilock braking systems (ABS), all you need do is stomp, stay and, if necessary, steer. You will stop in an unbelievably short distance. Beginning with the 2012 model year, new passenger vehicles have been required to have electronic stability control (ESC), a system that includes ABS as a key component. And about half of 15-year-old cars are equipped with ABS, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

To properly use ABS, stomp on the brake pedal as if you'd win $1 million if you break it off. Use no finesse: Pound it to the floor. Next, stay hard on the pedal until the car comes to a complete stop. Ignore nasty noises or a pulsating brake pedal. That's ABS doing its job. After a half-dozen stops, a 15-year-old on a permit can stop the car as quickly as the best race driver on the planet.

But you must practice. That's because there's a problem in ABS's organic software: the driver. If people are not trained, they don't use ABS properly. (An important note: If your car was built before 2012, make certain it has ABS before you stomp the pedal. Watch the warning lights when you start the vehicle for one that says "ABS."wink

One last word on panic stops: If the situation calls for emergency braking, don't worry about the vehicle behind you. If you hit the car in front of you, you get the ticket and may get sued. If the car behind hits you, he gets the ticket.

Emergency 4: Accident Avoidance With ABS
One of the beauties of ABS is that it allows steering during hard braking. But this can create serious problems if you do it improperly. A quick technical note explains why: Tires produce their best stopping force when pointed straight ahead. Without ABS, turning while braking hard will cause the tires to stop rolling. That reduces the stopping power and there's absolutely no turning ability. With ABS, the computer allows some of that stopping force to be traded for cornering power.

Here's the problem, however. Many drivers will pound the brake and steer — to miss a deer, for example. They then release the brake pressure with the Kart Wheels still turned. With the request for braking removed, the tires are now free to produce maximum cornering power, so the car darts right and hits a second deer — and a tree. That's why you practice centering the wheel before releasing brake pressure.

Emergency 5: Running off the Road
About a quarter of fatal crashes are single-vehicle accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Of those, about 70 percent happen when drivers run two wheels off the pavement and, in a panic, over-correct. This causes the vehicle to spin off the highway and flip, or dart into oncoming traffic. The sad part is that almost all of these accidents could be avoided if the driver just kept calm and drove on.

If you find yourself with two wheels off the road, release the accelerator, keep the steering wheel straight, allow the vehicle to slow on its own and smoothly steer back on the road. If you do it properly, passengers won't even notice your hands moving. It's best to stay away from the brake pedal, but it's OK to use ABS if all four wheels are about to go off the roadway or you're about to hit something harder than a country mailbox. Be sure to center the wheel before you release the brake.

Emergency 6: Tire Blowout
To survive a tire blowout, pretend you're the bad guy in a police chase and you've just run over the cops' spike strips. Push the accelerator (for a moment) and drive straight ahead. The shotgun-blast noise of a tire blowout makes most law-abiding drivers do exactly the wrong thing. They attempt to slow down quickly and get off the road. With a rear-tire failure, any turning at high speed will likely result in a spin and a devastating crash.

When I trained drivers in emergency techniques, hundreds of them correctly handled a tire blowout while I sat in the passenger seat and pressed the detonator to ignite a plastic explosive that blew a gaping hole in the tire. Not one driver lost control. You can be that calm, too.

Pressing the accelerator for an instant will give you time to collect your wits. You'll remember to drive straight down your lane and to stay away from the brake pedal. Allow the car to coast down to slow and then gently pull onto the shoulder. The car will not gain speed no matter how long you press the accelerator. The drag force of a completely flat tire is that potent.

Almost all highway blowouts and tread separations occur on hot days with the car traveling in a straight line at high speed on an underinflated tire or tires. The repeated flexing of an underinflated tire causes the failure. Check your tire pressures and you won't have to deal with blowouts.

Emergency 7: Over-Reactive Steering
In an urgent situation, your goal is to move the steering wheel rapidly but smoothly. Jerking the wheel may cause your tires to lose traction. If rough steering causes the rear tires to lose traction, you might go for a spin. Turning the same amount but doing so smoothly will introduce the tires to the request for cornering force and avoid overwhelming them.

Here's an example of why you don't want to be a steering jerk: On a recent rainy evening in the mountains of Virginia, I suddenly came upon a truck tire tread in my lane. The dark, water-filled wagon-wheel ruts were perfect camouflage for the giant black road gator. I calmly and smoothly turned the wheel just enough to miss 80 pounds of steel-reinforced rubber, paused an instant to allow the tires to regain full grip, and then smoothly turned right to return to my lane. If I had snapped the wheel back and forth, there's a good chance I would have wound up in the ditch.

Emergency 8: Stuck Throttles and Sudden Acceleration
Thanks to things like loose floor mats and a poorly placed racecar throttle cable, I have experienced stuck throttles. If your engine starts racing away uncontrollably, you must stop it immediately. If the car started accelerating when you pushed the brake, release that pedal. If the engine stops screaming, you were actually pushing the throttle. Now try pushing the pedal to its left. If that doesn't stop the vehicle, slap the transmission into Neutral. Don't worry about inadvertently shifting into Reverse. Most modern vehicles will not allow you to do that without manipulating a button on the shift lever. And if you do manage to get to Reverse, the computer in the transmission of all modern vehicles will reject your request. As a very last resort, turn off the ignition.

While taking these actions, press the brake as hard as you can. In every well-maintained modern car, the brakes easily overpower the engine, even if the transmission downshifts a gear or two. If you're truly pushing the brake as hard as you can, the car will stop, even with the engine going full speed. However, the brakes can't beat the engine forever and people with physical problems may not be able to maintain adequate brake pressure, so select Neutral and turn off the ignition.

Emergency 9: Front-Tire Slide
When front tires lose grip, most drivers' natural reaction is the correct reaction:
Say "Oh, shoot" (or similar).
Remove your foot from the gas pedal.
Stay away from the brake pedal.
Leave your hands where they are. More steering won't help and might hurt.
Wait for the traction to return.
Pray that the grip comes back before you get to the trees or concrete barriers.
Turning the wheel more or stepping on the brake is like writing checks from an overdrawn account. You're already asking for more grip than the tires can provide.

Emergency 10: Rear-Tire Slide
Words can't teach you to hit a curveball. And they can't tell you how to catch a rear-tire slide, which stock car drivers call "loose" and engineers call "oversteer." Unlike a front-tire slide, you cannot successfully react to a rear-tire slide. You must anticipate it.

Electronic stability control (ESC) is making the ability to catch a slide as obsolete as being able to rapid-fire a muzzle-loading musket. But ESC can still use your help. Make sure your tires have adequate tread depth and are properly inflated. The tires with the deepest tread should be on the rear. Know that ESC does not offer diplomatic immunity from the laws of physics. If you enter a 30-mph turn at 60, you're going to crash, ESC or not.

If your vehicle lacks ESC, there are a few moderate-cost ways to learn how to catch a sliding tail. The biggest bang for the buck is the "slick track" go-kart tracks found at many amusement parks.  For a few dollars more, try the indoor kart tracks found in most metro areas.

Religion / Re: Freethinkers How Do You Manage Living In A Country That Believes In Superstition by UsamaRafiq: 1:54pm On Feb 21
DeepSight:


Pardon me, but I fail to see how the context you have cited is different from that which I presented as a question. Please indulge me and help tell how it is different. However, if it helps any, maybe you should just indicate again what exactly you mean was trivially easy. Because I am genuinely confused. Thank you for your patience in advance.


For more Information: save the turtles

They certainly arent and I did not suggest they were. Perhaps I havent expressed myself clearly enough on this point. Or perhaps we mean different things when we say "blank slate." You see, a genuine blank slate would be, for me, a page on which nothing whatsoever has been written. However, a new born baby has a whole lot written on its page already. Many proclivities, tendencies and predispositions are already firmly genetically coded in, not to speak of a lorry load of instinctual dispositions. This is not for me, a genuine blank slate. You know, in the way that a child turns out, we often say that both nature and nurture play their part. I believe this to be true - whereas you appear to be leaning towards attributing one hundred per cent to nurture alone.

I grant that you are probably still speaking entirely about facts and opinions which a child may imbibe - and if this is the case, of course you would be correct, as none of that is inherited in a genetic sense. However you would have been addressing something quite different from what I had in mind: to be clear - in the way in which I have said a child has genetic predispositions, I believe that certain fundamental codes are imprinted on its nature from the get-go which play a role in its subsequent development and thus undergird some of the results which play out in its life. And thus, I do not regard even the newest of new born babies as a true blank slate. For it has millions of years of coding already written there.



This sort of argument horrifies me, and I am certain I have said nothing to suggest I would lean towards anything of the kind. I am acquainted with this ancient argument even if uncertain that it is here expressed precisely in its definite form - nonetheless rest assured it finds no fluff with me.



As explained above, I am not referring to "facts."



I am not certain that I agree here. Certainly not a true blank slate in the way I have explained above. Also I think you have perhaps missed the subtlety of what I said - because you see, it is the fact that the child asks questions as it develops which I have used as a plank for suggesting - not pre-formed knowledge of the world, no - but a reference to a reality imbued with causality.



You see, "that fucking milk" could be the basis for asking you to think a little. Because new born pups for example, will immediately begin to struggle for their mother's mammary glands. Because they are so pre-programmed. You may try to wave this away as simple instinct, actuated by senses such as thirst, hunger and smell, but you see, I said this could be a basis for asking you to think - because there are too many startling examples in the natural world which go further to underscore the point: newly hatched turtles will instantly head to the sea - every single one of them with all the strength they can muster - and this, without the presence or guidance of their parents. You are free to point out how these are scientifically explained but you will be missing the point because I dont doubt that they are. The point is simply that there exist definite codes imprinted even on the newest of new born babies. And that these codes, as they play out in further life, inevitably play some part in the trajectory of the development of the creature - and consequently in some of its foundational apprehensions of the world.

Perhaps I should second-guess you here, and save you the trouble of pointing out to me how evolution explains this - by informing you that I believe in evolution. Doesnt change the point about blank slates. If anything, it enforces my point. Because millions of years of evolution represents millions of years worth of embedded nature upon the new baby - and certainly not "a blank slate."

SEEDS OF DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
BY DR PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE

DATE: MONDAY, 7TH AUGUST, 2023

TOPIC: FAITH IN THE GOD WHO OWNS ALL THINGS

SCRIPTURE: But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Hebrews 11:6

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Faith and supernatural supplies go together.

Some years ago, while the Glory Dome was being built, I stood on the first gallery one day watching the on-going construction.

I saw the massive volumes of concrete being mixed on the ground, machines working everywhere and hundreds of people engaged in diverse activities around different areas of the construction.
As I looked around, I thought within myself: who can build a thing like this if not God?

The money being spent monthly on the construction was in hundreds of millions.
While in this deep meditation on the greatness of God, He gave me a song:
You own the Universe
You own the silver and gold
The Earth and all its fullness
It all belongs to You
There is nothing You don’t have
There is nothing You can’t Give Lord
The Hope of the living
The Source of everything…
You see, you must have a solid faith in God who owns the universe, the silver and gold, the earth and all its fullness, to dare certain things in life (Psalm 24:1-2. Haggai 2:cool.

Beloved, it is possible to raise the dead, and still die in poverty because there are dimensions of faith. The faith you deploy for healing is different from the faith you deploy for supernatural supplies.

Abraham the father of supernatural supplies is also called the father of faith. Faith and supernatural supplies go together. That is why those who teach faith in our generation also teach prosperity. Faith is existence with the mentality that you cannot beg on the behalf of the God who sent you.

I counsel you to find out from the Word of God the things that need to be done for supernatural supplies to come. You need that ruggedness of faith that is developed from the Word of God in order to guarantee a steady flow of supplies.

REMEMBER THIS: Faith and supernatural supplies go together.

ASSIGNMENTS:
1. Ask God to shift your faith from the present dimension to a higher one.
2. Develop your faith by putting the Word of God to work.

PRAYER: Lord, I ask for a shift in the dimension of my faith. Show me higher dimension of your possibilities, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: Abundance in the Glory.

QUOTE: When you leave something in the reserve, it does not mean that you have excess. You are rather demonstrating faith that from now, till forever, the money that will enter your hand must be enough to keep something aside. That is faith in action.
Culled from the book, “21 Uncommon Keys To Financial Overflow” by Dr Paul Enenche.

DAILY READING: Jeremiah 4-6.

AMAZING FACT: The largest shark ever found was a Whale Shark measuring 41.5 feet (12.6 metres).

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: Receive grace to walk in the supernatural supply dimension of faith in Jesus Name.
Business / Re: Several Ways Disability Support Services Are Empowering Individuals by UsamaRafiq: 12:48pm On Feb 21
kajalverma3639:
Disability Support Services can provide individuals with the tools and resources they need to live independently, engage in society, pursue education and employment, and enhance their quality of life. Empowering individuals with disabilities allows them to reach their full potential, contribute to their communities, and live fulfilling lives. These services empower individuals by removing barriers to access, promoting independence, and creating a more inclusive environment.

Listed below are some unique ways how individuals are being empowered by disability support services

Providing accessibility accommodations

Disability support services provide accessibility accommodations to help individuals with disabilities overcome barriers to participation. These accommodations may include modifications to physical environments, assistive technology, alternative formats for communication, and specialized support services such as interpreters or personal attendants. The goal is to ensure equal access and opportunities for people with disabilities.

For More Info: Adult Speech Therapy

Offering assistive technology

Disability support services offer assistive technology to help individuals with disabilities improve their independence and quality of life. Examples of assistive technology include devices such as hearing aids, screen readers, speech recognition software, mobility aids, and communication devices. Assistive technology can help people with disabilities to communicate, access information, and perform daily tasks, increasing their ability to participate fully in society.

Providing academic accommodations

Disability support services offer academic accommodations to ensure equal access and opportunities for students with disabilities.

This support may include therapy, medication management, coping strategies, and referrals to other professionals. It aims to enhance their emotional well-being and overall quality of life.

Providing advocacy and disability rights education

Disability support services offer advocacy services to people with disabilities, advocating for their rights and interests. They also provide disability rights education to the community to promote awareness, understanding and acceptance of disability issues, and to encourage inclusive practices and policies.

Offering peer support programs

Disability support services offer peer support programs where individuals with disabilities can connect with others facing similar challenges. These programs provide a safe and supportive environment for people to share experiences, offer encouragement, and build friendships. Peer support can be a valuable tool in promoting social inclusion and improving overall well-being.

Providing accessible transportation options

Disability support services play a crucial role in providing accessible transportation options for people with disabilities. These services ensure that individuals with mobility limitations, visual impairments, or other disabilities can travel safely and independently. This can include accessible vehicles with wheelchair ramps, trained drivers to assist with boarding and disembarking, and specialized equipment for individuals with specific needs. By offering these services, disability support services promote inclusion and equal access to transportation for all members of society.

Offering disability-related events and programming

Disability support services provide a range of disability-related events and programming to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities. These events and programming may include workshops, seminars, support groups, recreational activities, and social events. They are designed to foster a sense of community, promote education and awareness, and provide opportunities for individuals with disabilities to connect with others facing similar challenges. Disability support services strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all individuals with disabilities, regardless of their background or level of ability.

Disability support services offer specialized assistance and referrals for individuals with disabilities. These services may include accessibility accommodations, counselling, transportation, and medical care. Support services can also provide information on legal rights, advocacy, and financial assistance programs.

By providing tailored resources and referrals, support services can improve the quality of life for people with disabilities and their families.

Disability employment service providers are organizations that support people with disabilities in finding and maintaining employment. They offer services such as job coaching, skills training, and job placement assistance. These providers work with individuals, employers, and government agencies to create inclusive and accessible workplaces that support people with disabilities.
Nairaland / General / Re: Whisker Wonderland: Navigating Life With A Playful Pet Cat by UsamaRafiq: 10:00am On Feb 21
Juliasmith:
In a quaint little town nestled between rolling hills and lush meadows, there lived a young woman named Emma. Her life took an unexpected turn when she stumbled upon a small, scruffy kitten with the most enchanting whiskers. Emma, an ardent animal lover, couldn't resist the playful charm of the little feline.

With a heart full of compassion, Emma decided to adopt the kitten and named her Whiskers. From that day forward, Emma's life transformed into a whimsical journey through a realm she affectionately called Whisker Wonderland.

Whiskers, with her mischievous antics and endearing purrs, brought joy to every corner of Emma's life. Together, they navigated the ups and downs, creating a bond that transcended the ordinary human-pet relationship. Whisker Wonderland became a place where love and laughter resonated in perfect harmony.

As the seasons changed, so did the adventures of Emma and Whiskers. They explored the magic of snowflakes dancing in the winter air and basked in the warmth of the golden sun during lazy summer afternoons. Whiskers transformed Emma's home into a haven of happiness, where every day felt like a celebration.

One chilly winter morning, Emma noticed Whiskers staring longingly out of the window. An idea sparked in Emma's mind – she decided to create a haven for Whiskers to experience the outdoors safely. Emma embarked on a quest to find the perfect Cat enclosures that would allow Whiskers to revel in the beauty of nature without any worries.

After some research, Emma discovered a local artisan who specialized in crafting custom cat enclosures. The enclosures were not just practical but also aesthetically pleasing, blending seamlessly with Emma's backyard. Whiskers couldn't contain her excitement when Emma introduced her to the newly built haven.

The enclosure became Whisker Wonderland's outdoor extension, a playground for Whiskers to chase Save the Butterflies, climb miniature trees, and bask in the sun's gentle rays. Emma cherished the moments spent watching Whiskers' eyes light up with sheer delight as she explored her newfound paradise.

One spring afternoon, as the cherry blossoms adorned the trees, a peculiar visitor joined Whiskers in the enclosure. A little bird with vibrant feathers and a playful spirit fluttered into Whisker Wonderland. Emma observed the curious interaction between Whiskers and her feathered friend, realizing that the enclosure not only brought joy to Whiskers but also created a harmonious space for various creatures.

As the years passed, Whisker Wonderland witnessed the evolving seasons of life. Whiskers grew from a tiny ball of fur into a graceful cat with wise eyes that held a universe of shared memories. Emma, too, experienced the profound impact of their journey together – a journey marked by love, understanding, and the simple joys of life.

One day, as autumn leaves painted the town in warm hues, Whiskers fell ill. Emma's heart ached at the thought of losing her beloved companion. In those challenging moments, Whisker Wonderland transformed into a sanctuary of comfort and solace. Emma stayed by Whiskers' side, reminiscing about the countless adventures they had shared.

In the twilight of Whiskers' life, Emma realized the importance of cherishing every moment and creating lasting memories. Whisker Wonderland became a testament to the enduring bond between a human and her feline friend, a sanctuary where love transcended the boundaries of time.

As Whiskers peacefully crossed the rainbow bridge, Emma found solace in the memories etched in the walls of Whisker Wonderland. The Cat enclosures that once echoed with playful meows now stood as a tribute to the joy and companionship Whiskers had brought into Emma's life.

In the quiet evenings, Emma would sit by the enclosure, feeling the gentle breeze that carried whispers of Whiskers' presence. Though Whisker Wonderland had lost its physical form, its essence lingered in the warmth of Emma's heart.

In the years that followed, Emma continued to honor Whiskers' legacy by adopting other rescue animals and creating havens of love for them. The lessons learned in Whisker Wonderland – the importance of compassion, the beauty of simple moments, and the enduring power of love – became guiding principles in Emma's life.

As the town continued to flourish, the story of Whisker Wonderland and its transformative power spread far and wide. The tale of a playful cat and her devoted human became an inspiration for others to create their own havens of love, where the spirit of Cat enclosures was not just about providing safety but about fostering a lifetime of shared adventures and cherished memories.

And so, the enchanting story of Whisker Wonderland lived on, a timeless testament to the magic that unfolds when one opens their heart to the playful dance of a whiskered companion.

Africans are the most delusional people on earth -Rather than Africans to study myths , do a basic thorough research to find out scientific evidence of things ,no; they become lazy, and fill in gaps with a god or myth - No wonder they worship anything-God of thunder, God of the sky,God of the moon, God of the wind lol etc . If you dont have any scientific evidence of anything to show me, with facts in this modern age - I dont believe you.

No, Mermaids Do Not Exist
What Animal Planet’s fake documentaries don’t tell you about the ocean.

No credible evidence of the existence of mermaids has ever been found
Courtesy of Animal Planet

This week, Animal Planet aired two fake documentaries claiming to show scientific evidence of mermaids. I say “fake documentaries” because that’s exactly what The Body Found and The New Evidence are. The “scientists” interviewed in the show are actors, and there’s a brief disclaimer during the end credits. However, the Twitter conversation surrounding the show (#Mermaids) reveals that many viewers are unaware that the show isn’t real. (Sample Tweets: “After watching the documentary #Mermaids the body found … I believe there are mermaids!!!” and “90% of the ocean is unexplored and you’re telling me #mermaids don’t exist”—which has been retweeted more than 800 times.) It is, after all, airing on a network that claims to focus on educating viewers about the natural world. “The Body Found” was rightfully described “the rotting carcass of science television,” and I was shocked to see Animal Planet air a sequel.

As a marine biologist, I can tell you unequivocally that despite millennia of humans exploring the ocean, no credible evidence of the existence of mermaids has ever been found. Some claim that manatees are the source of the legend, but you’d have to be at sea an awfully long time to think that a manatee is a beautiful woman. Sure, new species are discovered all the time, but while a new species of bird or insect is fascinating, it doesn’t mean “anything is possible,” and it is certainly not equivalent to finding a group of talking, thinking humanoids with fish tails covering half of their bodies. The confusion generated by “The Body Found” got to be so significant that the United States government issued an official statement on the matter.

When I started angrily posting about this on Facebook and Twitter, many of my nonscientist friends asked me why it matters if people believe in mermaids. It matters because the ocean is extremely important. It provides jobs for tens of millions of people and food for billions. However, many marine resources are being overexploited and mismanaged, leaving us in serious danger of losing them forever. Policy solutions can help, but if you are so ignorant about what is really happening in the ocean that you believe that there are organisms that are half human and half fish, you’re almost certainly unaware of the important problems, much less how to solve them. Even if you don’t believe in mythical creatures, you may be unaware of the severity of the crises facing our oceans. Now that we’ve established that mermaids aren’t real, here are 5 other important things about the ocean that everyone should know.

1. The oceans are not inexhaustible, we’re currently overharvesting many resources, and the consequences can be disastrous.

According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, 32 percent of all global fisheries are “overexploited, depleted, or recovering” and another 50 percent are fully exploited (as of 2010). Overfishing is the single greatest threat to the ocean environment, but this isn’t just an environmental problem. Fish are a critically important natural resource, with more than 3 billion people getting at least 15 percent of their protein from the ocean. Although human population growth is still increasing, we won’t be able to increase the amount of fish we’re taking from the ocean.*


2. Current fishing practices aren’t just problematic for the fish species we are trying to catch.

Most commercial fisheries don’t use a rod and reel, catching one fish at a time and throwing back what they don’t want (or aren’t allowed to sell). A single longline can be many miles long and have tens of thousands of baited hooks; purse seine nets can be miles across; and the largest trawl net on the market can fit several 747 airplanes in its opening. Bycatch, which occurs when fishermen catch animals swimming near their target catch, is unavoidable with fishing gear this large, but the problem can be unexpectedly severe. In some fisheries, 90 percent of the catch by weight is bycatch, which includes endangered sea turtles and sea birds as well as marine mammals. Some types of fishing, such as dynamite fishing and cyanide fishing, can heavily damage the environment. Dragging a heavy trawl net over the seafloor destroys countless fragile and ecologically important organisms, the equivalent of hunting for rabbits by bulldozing a forest and killing all the deer, birds, insects, and plants that live there. The FAO estimates that 7 million tons of bycatch are caught and discarded every year.


3. Just because a fish is from “the ocean” doesn’t mean you should release it in the nearest body of salt water.

Invasive species are non-native organisms released into a new region. In the case of invasive fish, they are often introduced by aquarium hobbyists who release a fish when it gets too big for its tank. Often, there are no predators in the new habitat capable of eating these newly introduced animals. Lionfish, native to the Indo-Pacific, are believed to have been introduced to the Atlantic coast of the United States by aquarium hobbyists in the last few decades. Lionfish have no native predators in the Atlantic, and non-native predators are often deterred by their venomous spines. A single female lionfish can release millions of eggs in a year, so it’s no surprise that lionfish are now found throughout the Caribbean and as far north as New York, and they are outcompeting or eating native, economically important fishes such as snapper and grouper.

4. Sharks aren’t a threat to you, they’re important, and they’re in trouble

The average American has only a 1 in 3,800,000 chance of being killed by a shark. You’re more likely to be killed by a lawnmower or a vending machine, and more likely to be bitten by a stranger on the subway. Like all predators, sharks help keep the ocean in balance by eating the sick, the weak, and the dying. However, sharks are suffering from overfishing more than most marine species, with 1 in 6 species of shark, skate, or ray (and 1 in 3 species of open ocean shark) considered “Threatened with Extinction” by the IUCN Red List.



5. Although mermaids don’t exist, the ocean is still full of wonder, and it needs your help!

What you do affects the ocean even if you live far away, and there’s a lot that you can do to help. Purchase sustainable seafood. Use reusable grocery bags instead of single-use plastic bags, which can choke sea turtles or sea birds. Support politicians who support ocean conservation, or encourage your current elected officials to support the ocean. Most importantly, ask your friends and family to do the same.

If I’ve ruined your sense of wonder about the oceans, don’t fret. The absence of mermaids certainly doesn’t mean that the oceans are boring. As deep sea ecologist Andrew David Thaler said, “Look, the ocean is a vast, unexplored frontier. The deep sea is Earth’s last great wilderness. When we do venture into the abyss, we find creatures more diverse and incredible that our relatively limited imaginations can conceive. Don’t insult that wonder with something as utterly mundane as ‘human with fish tail.’ ”

Several of my marine scientist colleagues and I subjected ourselves to three hours of fake mermaid documentaries, live-tweeting and correcting inaccuracies as we watched.

These ingredients have been carefully selected for their ability to nourish the scalp and stimulate hair follicles, creating the optimal conditions for healthy hair growth.

These vitamins nourish the hair follicles, enhance blood circulation, and provide the necessary nutrients for healthy hair growth.



Realistic expectations and results

When using The Ordinary Hair Growth Serum, it is important to have realistic expectations about the results you can achieve. While the serum is designed to promote faster hair growth, it is not a miracle product that will produce overnight results.

Hair growth is a gradual process, and it can take time for the effects of the serum to become noticeable. You may start to see improvements in hair quality and thickness within a few weeks of regular use, but significant growth may take several months.

It is also important to remember that individual results may vary. Factors such as genetics, overall health, and hair care practices can all influence how quickly and effectively the serum works for you.

To maximize the benefits of The Ordinary Hair Growth Serum, it is recommended to use it consistently as part of a comprehensive hair care routine. This includes maintaining a healthy diet, minimizing heat and chemical damage, and practicing good scalp hygiene.

How to incorporate The Ordinary Hair Growth Serum into your hair care routine

Incorporating The Ordinary Hair Growth Serum into your hair care routine is simple and easy. Here are some tips on how to maximize the benefits of the serum for faster hair growth:

Cleanse your scalp

Before applying the serum, make sure your scalp is clean and free from any product buildup. Use a gentle shampoo and focus on massaging the scalp to stimulate blood flow.

Apply the serum correctly

Take a few drops of the serum and massage it into your scalp using your fingertips. Pay extra attention to areas that need extra nourishment and stimulation.

Be consistent

To see the best results, it is important to use the serum consistently. Incorporate it into your daily or weekly routine, depending on your preferences and needs. Consistency is key when it comes to promoting hair growth.

Avoid excessive heat and chemical damage: Excessive heat styling and chemical treatments can damage the hair and slow down growth. Minimize the use of heat styling tools and opt for heat protectant products when necessary.

Follow a healthy diet

Eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and protein can promote healthy hair growth. Include foods that are rich in biotin, vitamins A, C, and E, and omega-3 fatty acids to nourish your hair from within.

Nairaland / General / Best Practices For Installing GATO Intake Manifold by UsamaRafiq: 1:15pm On Feb 16
Installing a GATO Intake Manifold is a significant step towards enhancing your vehicle's performance. Whether you're a seasoned mechanic or a DIY enthusiast, following best practices ensures a smooth installation process and optimal performance gains. In this guide, we'll explore the essential steps and tips for installing your GATO Intake Manifold with precision and efficiency.

1. Gather the Necessary Tools and Materials

Before diving into the installation process, it's crucial to gather all the tools and materials you'll need. This includes wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers, gaskets, sealants, and any other components specified in the installation instructions provided by GATO. Having everything on hand will streamline the installation process and prevent delays.

2. Familiarize Yourself with the Installation Instructions

Take the time to carefully review the installation instructions provided by GATO Intake Manifold. Familiarize yourself with each step of the process and ensure you understand any specific requirements or recommendations outlined by the manufacturer. Following the instructions diligently will help prevent errors and ensure a successful installation.

3. Prepare the Work Area

Before beginning the installation, prepare a clean and well-lit work area. Remove any debris or clutter that could interfere with the installation process. Having a tidy workspace not only makes the installation easier but also reduces the risk of losing small components or tools during the process.

4. Disconnect the Battery

For safety reasons, always disconnect the vehicle's battery before starting any installation work. This helps prevent accidental electrical shorts and ensures your safety throughout the installation process. Remember to follow proper battery disconnect procedures outlined in your vehicle's owner's manual.

5. Remove the Old Intake Manifold

If replacing an existing intake manifold, carefully remove the old manifold according to the manufacturer's instructions. Take note of the orientation of hoses, sensors, and other components attached to the manifold to ensure proper reinstallation later on. Inspect the mating surface of the engine block for any debris or damage that may impede the sealing of the new manifold.

6. Install the GATO Intake Manifold

Once the old manifold is removed, carefully position the GATO Intake Manifold onto the engine block. Ensure that all mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before installation. Follow the torque specifications provided by GATO to evenly tighten the manifold bolts and achieve proper sealing. Take care not to over-torque the bolts, as this can lead to damage or leaks.

7. Connect Hoses, Sensors, and Accessories

With the manifold securely in place, reconnect any hoses, sensors, and accessories that were disconnected during the installation process. Pay close attention to the routing and orientation of each component to prevent interference or misalignment. Double-check all connections to ensure they are secure and properly seated.

8. Test for Leaks and Functionality

After the installation is complete, it's essential to test the system for leaks and functionality. Pressurize the intake system using a smoke machine or compressed air to detect any leaks around the manifold and intake ports. Additionally, verify that all sensors and accessories are functioning correctly by conducting a thorough visual inspection and diagnostic scan.

9. Reconnect the Battery and Perform Final Checks

Once you've confirmed that the installation is successful and free of leaks, reconnect the vehicle's battery and perform final checks. Start the engine and monitor for any abnormal noises, vibrations, or warning lights. Take the vehicle for a test drive to ensure that the GATO Intake Manifold performs as expected under real-world driving conditions.

In conclusion, installing a GATO Intake Manifold requires careful attention to detail and adherence to best practices. By following the steps outlined in this guide and exercising patience and precision, you can enjoy the benefits of improved performance and efficiency offered by your new intake manifold. Remember to consult the manufacturer's instructions and seek professional assistance if you encounter any difficulties during the installation process.

Car Talk / Re: MINI Releases New Electric Concept by UsamaRafiq: 11:07am On Feb 16
AutoReportNG:
MINI has taken the wraps off its new Electric concept.

Set to debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Electric concept was designed to appeal to city dwellers and offers a "window into how pure-electric day-to-day mobility might look in the years ahead."

Looking like a futuristic MINI Cooper, the concept features a unique grille which is flanked by LED headlights and a sporty front bumper with "simulated air intakes.”

The racy styling continues further back as designers installed flush-mounted door handles and fiberglass side skirts. There are also distinctive 19-inch kart wheels which have aerodynamic inlays that were created by using a 3D printer.

The rear end is slightly more conventional as it boasts a tailgate-mounted spoiler and a fiberglass diffuser. MINI's British origins are also on display as the concept has bespoke LED taillights with Union Jack accents.

Motivation is provided by an electric powertrain which uses a "powerful" motor. There's no word on specifications but MINI says the concept is responsive and delivers a go-kart feeling.

The fact that the concept looks nearly production ready shouldn't come as much of a surprise as the company reaffirmed its commitment to launch a new electric vehicle in 2019. As BMW AG Chairman Harald Krüger explained, "The MINI Electric concept offers a thrilling preview of the all-electric production vehicle."

Politics / Re: Anambra Vision 2070 And Silliness Of Soludo's Critics by UsamaRafiq: 2:44pm On Feb 15
ashiwaju2010:
*ANAMBRA VISION 2070 AND SILLINESS OF SOLUDO'S CRITICS*

By Christian ABURIME

A recent article titled “Anambra Vision 2070: Soludo Has Abandoned His Plan” authored by a faceless, mischievous, so-called ‘The Progressives Media’, masquerading as objective critique but clearly driven by political motives, attempts to paint a false narrative of Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo’s commitment to the development of Anambra State.

By cherry-picking information and distorting facts, the politically sponsored hack writer does a disservice to the people of Anambra and desecrates the space of constructive discourse.

But let us delve deeper and offer a more balanced perspective. Beyond benchmarking the performance of this government on a single policy document, it is crucial to clarify that Governor Soludo’s vision for Anambra State is not solely confined to the Anambra Vision 2070 plan. Instead, it is guided by a cohesive framework encompassing three key policy documents.

First, we have the People’s Manifesto. This document, penned by Governor Soludo himself, outlines his vision for a “liveable and prosperous smart megacity,” focusing on security, economic transformation, social advancement, governance and value system, and environmental sustainability.

Second is the Transition Committee Report. Established by Governor Soludo, this report builds upon the manifesto, providing a detailed roadmap for immediate action across various sectors as the governor assumed office two years ago.

And the third is Anambra Vision 2070: while this long-term plan serves as a guiding vision, it is constantly evaluated and adapted to align with real-time needs and emerging opportunities.

Considering the foregoing clarifications, the disingenuous attempt by The so-called Progressives Media to focus solely on Anambra Vision 2070 to disparage the entire Soludo administration demonstrates the critic’s own selective agenda and ignores the comprehensive approach undertaken by Governor Soludo so far.

Indeed, all the allegations made in the skewed critique are all baseless fabrications deliberately aimed at misleading Ndi Anambra and propagating a patently phony narrative.

Now, let us address the specific misconceptions raised by The Progressives Media, exposing its inaccuracies and highlighting the ongoing efforts of the Soludo administration.

On Productivity, Trade & Commerce: contrary to the allegation of an “anti-trade” environment, the Soludo government is facilitating the formalization of the informal business sector, ensuring fair competition and sustainable growth.

Targeted tax breaks exist for specific sectors like ICT, agriculture, and initiatives like the “Ease of Doing Business” reforms offer concrete support to businesses. By the way, the critic is absolutely lying by claiming that “The Soludo tax army is stifling small businesses with a litany of taxes and levies that do not even have any rate/structure or put into consideration the turnover of the business not to talk of net profit.” This must be a figment of the critic’s imagination. All the government is trying to do is sanitize the revenue mobilization system in the state, free it from corruption and optimize the IGR to aid developmental projects, not to tax anybody to death.

For More Info: Sustainable Agriculture

In the area of industry, the Soludo administration’s blueprint for economic growth is being etched with purpose and precision. A groundbreaking initiative is underway as the administration diligently crafts an industrial master plan, poised to birth a new industrial city. Central to this industrial metamorphosis is the conception of an Export Emporium, a hub of commerce and trade that will undoubtedly serve as a dynamic engine propelling the state forward at an unprecedented pace.

In the heart of this ambitious industrialization, construction has already commenced on a wholesale drug market in Oba, a venture that holds promise for enhancing healthcare accessibility and fostering economic vibrancy. Simultaneously, the administration is nurturing the growth of a state-of-the-art pharmaceutical manufacturing hub in Ogboji.

The Ogboji facility is rapidly taking shape, with 25 manufacturers already on board out of the expected 100, underscoring the palpable enthusiasm and interest in this transformative initiative.

On Agriculture: the critic’s allegation of mere seedling distribution ignores the reality. Governor Soludo is sowing the seeds of a prosperous Anambra through keen Agricultural renaissance that has germinated a visionary initiative.

Yes, a staggering 1,100,000 hybrid coconut and palm seedlings have been distributed to over 100,000 households, igniting a beacon of hope in the pursuit of eradicating poverty, fostering neo agro-industrialization, and nurturing a green and environmentally conscious state.

In the span of a mere 3-5 years, the once-humble seedlings will metamorphose into bountiful trees, yielding not only a harvest of coconut and palm oil but also emancipating families from the shackles of hunger and poverty. A household of with 10 of the seedlings stand to earn between N1m to N2m annually after 3 to 4 year of fruiting.

The seeds of today are sowing the fields of tomorrow, cultivating a landscape where countless families ascend to the ranks of millionaires. The coconut and palm seedlings revolution of the Soludo-led administration has indeed attracted attention and commendations outside the State

On Housing and Public Transportation: while the 2023-2026 budget allocation for social housing may seem limited, it reflects a strategic approach. The government is actively exploring public-private partnerships for large-scale projects, a more sustainable long-term solution. In fact, aside building a new government house and giving the Anambra State House of Assembly complex a facelift, the government has started a new Awka Capital Territory development on approximately 250 hectares of recently acquired land.

Envisioning an extraordinary urban development, Governor Soludo has signed public-private partnerships with seven leading companies, three of which have already broken ground. This venture promises to transform Awka into a modern, economically vibrant nerve centre that drives prosperity for all Ndi Anambra.

As for transportation, the Soludo government is laying the ground for a proper transportation system through good road infrastructure first. Over the span of 22 months, a staggering 396 kilometers of roads, coupled with the construction of 2 flyovers, have been awarded and are in various stages of construction, with some already completed. Besides, there is in place a Transport Intervention Plan, outlining a commitment to modernizing the state’s infrastructure.

A completed railway master plan paves the way for a new era of efficient and accessible commuting, while contracts have been awarded for the modernization of water transportation systems to connect riverine communities and foster inclusive growth.

So, judging by the foregoing, accusing the Soludo administration of lacking direction is demonstrably false. The “Soludo Solution” agenda, with its clear focus on security, economic transformation, education, healthcare, environment and so on, provides a roadmap for action. There are a lot of projects and activities going on that showcase tangible progress, but prejudiced critics may claim ignorance.

In conclusion, Governor Soludo’s administration is evidently not operating in a vacuum. The administration’s efforts are guided by a comprehensive vision and implemented through a multi-pronged approach.

While challenges remain, dismissing Governor Soludo’s sterling achievements based on misconstrued narratives and cherry-picked information serves no purpose. Let us engage in constructive dialogue, holding the government accountable while acknowledging its genuine efforts to fulfill the promises outlined in their comprehensive vision.

By doing so, we can better contribute to the progress and development of Anambra State. Remember, responsible criticism relies on verifiable facts and a nuanced understanding of ongoing efforts.

The people of Anambra deserve better than politically motivated misinformation. Let us focus on fostering constructive dialogue and holding our leaders accountable while acknowledging their genuine efforts to move the state forward not dishing out false criticisms that are baseless and unfounded!!
Health / Re: ‘UCH Can Manage Ebola Disease’ by UsamaRafiq: 12:33pm On Feb 15
omolomolarinero:
The management of the University Teaching Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, Oyo State, has disclosed that it has experience in the management of the deadly Ebola virus. This is coming on the heels of a request by the Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chuckwu, to the United States’ Centre for Disease Control (CDC) to send the experimental drug ‘Zmapp’ administered to the two American doctors who contacted the virus to Nigeria. The Chief Medical Director (CMD) of UCH, Prof Temitope Alonge, stated this in Lagos yesterday at a media parley facilitated by the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN). “We have been proactive as far back as 2012 by setting up VHF isolation precautions as well as standard precautions, which enabled us to manage Dengue fever and other outbreaks back then. It was later confirmed that no further transmission of the virus was documented, indicating that although Dengue is highly infectious, the use of these measures is effective in preventing the spread of disease and other viral hemorrhagic fevers, such as Ebola,” he said.

Alonge explained that Ebola virus belongs to a group of viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs), which refer to a group of illnesses caused by several distinct families of viruses. He said: “In general, the term ‘viral hemorrhagic fever’ is used to describe a severe multisystem syndrome (multisystem in that multiple organ systems in the body that is affected). Characteristically, the overall vascular system is damaged and the body’s ability to regulate itself is impaired. “These symptoms are often accompanied by haemorrhage (bleeding), diarrhoea among others, however, the bleeding is rarely life-threatening. While some types of hemorrhagic fever viruses can cause relatively mild illnesses, many of these viruses cause severe and life-threatening disease.” The CMD said his hospital had the human capacity and facility to detect and manage the Ebola virus because “it has experience in dealing with the virus in the past.”
He said the major challenge now facing his hospital was how to cremate bodies of Ebola virus deceased, should there be need in his hospital, but “we have contacted the India communities and other experts in that field, and they are ready to collaborate with us should the need arise.

“We have also printed out pamphlets in English, Yoruba and Hausa languages on what Ebola virus is, mode of its PPG Transmission and preventive measures. We have enough Personal Protective Garments (PPG) for the workforce, therefore UCH is ready and prepared for the virus. It will be irresponsible of anybody to say we do not have the capacity in terms of laboratory to diagnose Ebola virus.”

Science/Technology / Re: 2023 Acura Integra Review by UsamaRafiq: 12:29pm On Feb 15
Newsnow119:

Overview

Honda's Acura luxury division will soon relaunch an iconic nameplate and shake up the entry-luxury compact segment with an all-new Integra, replacing the aging ILX sedan in the lineup. Some may wonder why a luxury automaker would choose to launch a sporty car in the age of the SUV, but we'd be quick to remind them that the Integra is a big part of what made the Acura brand. The new car will be offered with a six-speed manual (an automatic will be optional) and shares its underpinnings with the all-new Honda Civic. The Integra comes with the same turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that's in the Civic Si, but we're hoping for an even perkier powertrain in a revived Type S model. And in the future, who knows? Maybe there will be an Acura Integra Type R that recalls the limited-edition screamer of the late Nineties.



Click Here: Acura Integra B-Series


What's New for 2023?

Acura's revived Integra will be an all new model for 2023 and we have been told production will start in 2022.



Pricing and Which One to Buy



Acura claims to be targeting a starting price around $30,000 f0r the base Integra. If a racy Type S model is in fact in the cards, we expect it to cost significantly more than a standard Integra. We will find out more about the Integra's powertrain, pricing, and standard and optional features closer to car's on-sale date and will update this story with details when we get them.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

Acura has said that the new Integra will be powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine borrowed from the Civic Si, but the company hasn't released a horsepower figure. We are expecting at least 200 hp from this mill and buyers will have the choice between a six-speed manual or an automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive will likely be the only setup but the Integra will come standard with a limited-slip differential.

Nairaland / General / Best Practices For Maintaining Kart Steering Wheels by UsamaRafiq: 1:26pm On Feb 14
Karting, an exhilarating sport loved by enthusiasts worldwide, demands precision, skill, and attention to detail. Among the critical components of a kart, the steering wheel stands out as a vital interface between the driver and the vehicle. Just like any other mechanical component, steering wheels require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity. In this guide, we delve into the best practices for maintaining kart steering wheels, emphasizing simplicity, effectiveness, and safety.

Understanding the Importance of Steering Wheel Maintenance

The steering wheel serves as the primary means of control for a kart, translating the driver's inputs into precise movements on the track. As such, its proper functioning is paramount for achieving desired handling characteristics and overall performance. Neglecting steering wheel maintenance can lead to issues such as stiffness, play, or loss of responsiveness, compromising both safety and competitive edge.

Cleaning and Inspection Routine

Regular cleaning and inspection form the cornerstone of steering wheel maintenance. After each race or practice session, take the time to remove dirt, grime, and debris that may have accumulated on the wheel's surface. A soft, damp cloth and mild detergent suffice for this task, ensuring thorough but gentle cleaning without damaging the wheel's material.

Inspect the steering wheel for any signs of wear, tear, or damage. Pay close attention to the grip surface, where hands exert the most pressure. Look for cracks, abrasions, or irregularities that may compromise grip or structural integrity. Additionally, check the spokes, hub, and mounting hardware for tightness and signs of corrosion.

Lubrication and Adjustment

Proper lubrication is essential for maintaining smooth operation and longevity of the steering wheel mechanism. Apply a high-quality silicone or lithium-based lubricant to pivot points, bearings, and moving parts, ensuring even distribution and minimal friction. Avoid using oil-based lubricants, as they can attract dirt and debris, leading to accelerated wear and potential malfunctions.

Periodically check and adjust the steering wheel alignment to ensure optimal handling characteristics. Misaligned wheels can cause uneven tire wear, instability, and compromised cornering performance. Use alignment tools and reference marks to verify alignment accuracy, making adjustments as necessary to achieve desired settings.

Preventative Measures

In addition to routine maintenance, several preventative measures can help prolong the life of kart steering wheels and mitigate potential issues. Consider installing protective covers or wraps to shield the wheel's surface from excessive wear and UV exposure. These accessories not only preserve aesthetics but also enhance grip and comfort for the driver.

When storing karts for extended periods, remove the steering wheel and store it in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This prevents degradation of materials and minimizes the risk of warping or distortion. Cover the wheel with a breathable fabric or bag to keep dust and debris at bay while allowing airflow to prevent moisture buildup.

Handling Common Issues

Despite diligent maintenance, kart steering wheels may encounter common issues requiring prompt attention. Loose or wobbly wheels often stem from loose mounting hardware or worn components. Tighten mounting bolts and inspect bushings or bearings for wear, replacing as needed to restore stability and precision.

Stiff or sticky steering can result from insufficient lubrication or buildup of dirt and grime within the wheel mechanism. Disassemble the wheel assembly, clean all components thoroughly, and reapply lubricant to moving parts. Exercise caution when disassembling complex steering wheel designs, referring to manufacturer guidelines or seeking professional assistance if necessary.

Professional Servicing and Upgrades

For more advanced maintenance tasks or upgrades, consider enlisting the expertise of professional karting mechanics or technicians. These professionals possess the knowledge, tools, and experience to diagnose complex issues, perform precision adjustments, and recommend suitable upgrades to enhance performance and durability.

When considering upgrades or replacements, opt for high-quality aftermarket steering wheels engineered for durability, performance, and ergonomics. Explore options such as reinforced materials, ergonomic grips, and quick-release mechanisms designed to improve comfort, control, and driver confidence on the track.

Conclusion

In conclusion, maintaining kart steering wheels is essential for preserving performance, safety, and longevity. By adhering to simple yet effective maintenance practices, karting enthusiasts can ensure optimal operation, responsiveness, and durability of steering components. Regular cleaning, inspection, lubrication, and adjustment form the foundation of a comprehensive maintenance regimen, complemented by preventative measures and prompt handling of common issues. Whether for recreational enjoyment or competitive racing, a well-maintained steering wheel enhances driver control, confidence, and overall karting experience. Embrace these best practices to keep your kart steering wheels in top condition and enjoy the thrill of karting to the fullest.

Nairaland / General / Top Benefits Of Sustainable Farming Practices by UsamaRafiq: 11:53am On Jan 30
Sustainable farming practices have emerged as a beacon of hope in the realm of agriculture, offering a path towards environmental stewardship, economic resilience, and healthier communities. Unlike conventional farming methods that often prioritize short-term gains at the expense of long-term sustainability, sustainable farming embodies a holistic approach that aims to nourish the land, support biodiversity, and foster thriving ecosystems. Let's delve into some of the key benefits that sustainable farming practices offer.

1. Environmental Preservation

At the heart of sustainable farming lies a profound commitment to environmental preservation. By employing techniques such as crop rotation, cover cropping, and agroforestry, sustainable farmers work in harmony with nature, minimizing the use of harmful chemicals and preserving soil health. This approach not only mitigates soil erosion and degradation but also promotes biodiversity by creating habitats for beneficial insects and wildlife.

2. Conservation of Natural Resources

Sustainable farming practices prioritize the efficient use of natural resources, including water and energy. Techniques like drip irrigation and rainwater harvesting reduce water wastage, while renewable energy sources such as solar panels help minimize the carbon footprint of farming operations. By conserving resources and reducing reliance on fossil fuels, sustainable farming contributes to mitigating climate change and building a more resilient agricultural system.

3. Soil Health and Fertility

Healthy soil forms the foundation of sustainable agriculture. By eschewing synthetic fertilizers and pesticides in favor of organic amendments and integrated pest management, sustainable farmers nurture the soil microbiome, fostering nutrient cycling and soil structure. This not only enhances crop productivity and resilience to pests and diseases but also sequesters carbon, mitigating the impacts of climate change while ensuring the long-term fertility of the land.

4. Economic Viability for Farmers

Contrary to the misconception that sustainable farming is economically unviable, many studies have shown that adopting sustainable practices can enhance the economic viability of farms in the long run. By reducing input costs, improving soil health, and fostering diverse revenue streams through value-added products like organic produce and agroecotourism, sustainable farming offers a pathway towards economic resilience for farmers, especially in the face of volatile market conditions and climate-related risks.

5. Enhanced Food Quality and Nutrition

Sustainable farming prioritizes the production of high-quality, nutritious food that nourishes both the body and the soul. By avoiding the use of synthetic chemicals and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), sustainable farmers produce food that is free from harmful residues and rich in essential nutrients and antioxidants. Moreover, sustainable farming practices often emphasize local and seasonal production, allowing consumers to enjoy fresh, flavorful produce while reducing the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation.

6. Resilient Communities and Food Security

Sustainable farming practices strengthen the resilience of communities by promoting local food systems and enhancing food security. By diversifying crops and supporting small-scale farmers, sustainable agriculture reduces dependency on monocultures and global supply chains, thereby mitigating the risks of crop failures and food shortages. Moreover, by fostering connections between farmers and consumers through farmers' markets, community-supported agriculture (CSA) programs, and farm-to-table initiatives, sustainable farming promotes food sovereignty and fosters vibrant, resilient communities.

7. Preservation of Cultural Heritage

Sustainable farming practices often embrace traditional knowledge and indigenous wisdom, preserving cultural heritage and fostering a deeper connection to the land. By honoring age-old farming traditions and techniques passed down through generations, sustainable farmers cultivate a sense of stewardship and reverence for the natural world, enriching the fabric of rural communities and preserving the diversity of agricultural landscapes for future generations to cherish and enjoy.

In conclusion, sustainable farming practices offer a multitude of benefits that extend far beyond the boundaries of the farm. From environmental preservation and conservation of natural resources to economic viability for farmers and enhanced food quality for consumers, the case for sustainable agriculture is compelling. By embracing sustainable farming practices, we can cultivate a future where agriculture thrives in harmony with nature, nourishing both people and the planet for generations to come.
