Nutase:
I heard of one that was demobilized and set on fire which forced the occupants out to face their doom. That's why I insist it's a total waste..

An armoured car does not protect you indefinitely, it just increases your chances of surviving an initial attack. Thus giving you an opportunity to take counter measures/evasive action.

When an armoured car is under attack the ideal thing is to race off. If you get immobilised, too bad...

Even if you were riding a tank, given sufficient time (and fire power), its defences will be breached. If you want to be completely safe from attacks get a bunker, crawl in and don't come out... And don't annoy the US, they have bunker busters smiley

Are your periods irregular like PHCN power?
If your period is off by a couple of days, that is not a problem as it ‎happens to the best of us, but if it is so irregular that you don’t ‎even bother to keep track of it anymore, then, that is a big problem ‎because irregular ovulation accounts for 30 to 40 percent of ALL ‎infertility cases.

Is your monthly period a nuclear war?
Many of us experience pain when we have our periods but if the ‎pain is extreme, it might indicate underlying present or future ‎conditions like hormonal imbalances, endometriosis, fibroids and ‎polyps which threaten fertility. If you notice blood in your urine or ‎bowel movements, that could mean you have un-diagnosed ‎endometriosis which might be the source of the pain. ‎Many infertile women present with these conditions much more ‎than their fertile counterparts.

Do you have very light monthly bleeding
In as much as you might be happy that your period is light and ‎maybe not even up to the usual 5 days, what you should know is ‎that your monthly period is because of the shedding of your uterine ‎lining. So, if you have light bleeding, it means you don’t have much ‎of a uterine wall to shed. Bear in mind that the wall is where ‎implantation occurs and if the embryo doesn’t have ‘solid ground’ ‎to implant into, that can lead to fertility issues.

Is your cycle much longer than 28 days...or less?
It is imperative that a woman's monthly cycle be between 28 to 32 ‎days for their fertility. A 28-day cycle allows plenty of time for the ‎egg to mature properly and gives enough time for implantation, ‎leaving ample time in case implantation is required. So, if the cycle ‎is shorter or much longer, this normal window is missed. Fertility ‎can be reduced by up to 50% in such cases.‎

What's normal?

The menstrual cycle, which is counted from the first day of one ‎period to the first day of the next, isn't the same for every woman. ‎Menstrual flow might occur every 21 to 35 days and last two to ‎seven days. For the first few years after menstruation begins, long ‎cycles are common. However, menstrual cycles tend to shorten ‎and become more regular as you age.

Your menstrual cycle might be regular — about the same length ‎every month — or somewhat irregular, and your period might be ‎light or heavy, painful or pain-free, long or short, and still be ‎considered normal. Within a broad range, "normal" is what's ‎normal for you.


www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/womens-health/in-depth/menstrual-cycle/art-20047186




Timing

Every month, your body prepares to get pregnant . One ovary ‎releases an egg. Hormones rise and fall.

This is your menstrual cycle. It starts on the first day of your last ‎period and ends on the first day of your next period. Though the ‎average cycle is 28 days long, anything between 21 and 45 days is ‎considered normal. That's a 24-day difference.

For the first year or two after menstruation begins, women tend to ‎have longer cycles that don't start at the same time every month. ‎Older women often have shorter, more consistent cycles.‎

In polygamous societies adultery can only be committed with a married woman. If a married man sleeps with an unmarried women, it is assumed she is going to be his next wife (until proven otherwise). It is the same in the bible too.

Celebrities / Re: Soundcity TV Replies Peter Okoye by XKZ(m): 9:06pm On Sep 10, 2015
abbey621:


Artiste get paid directly from sales by Apple ITunes, they do not get paid by revenues from MTV or other media outlet. Basically Apple offers technology or a selling platform while MTV or Soundcity does not offer such. Apple cannot go to Taylor Swift and ask her to perform at their event for a discounted price, Apple cannot say it made Taylor Swift a star, or without them she would be nothing! I hope you are getting the picture here wink wink

Apple Music is different from iTunes.
Apple Music is a music streaming service (internet radio station like Spotify).

They initially stated that for the first 3 months while they run their trial service artistes won't be paid when their music is broadcast.
Taylor Swift (and other artistes) said this was unacceptable and Apple dropped that condition.

I hope you understand now

Besides if Apple was SoundCity they would claim putting Taylor Swift in their store (iTunes) gave her visibility and made her big.

I keep laughing at Soundcity because I keep picturing MTV or BET removing Beyoncé's videos because she was rude to them or refused to perform at their event, very funny people grin grin grin

As big as Apple is they did a u-turn when Taylor Swift complained about the terms Apple Music was offering artistes.

Most of their videos got massive airplay on @SoundcityTV than any other music channel.

Saying our TV brand has never done anything for #PSquare was quite damning. Clearly, there was no need to argue with their decision and reasoning. We decided to stop ‘doing anything’ with/for #PSquare, since our 10years of supporting the group meant nothing to them. We assumed our relationship was a mutually beneficial one, but clearly one-sided.

In other climes people pay royalty when they use your intellectual property; Here they use it for free and still act like they're doing you a favour

By Elroy Chibex

These popular brands make phones people love, but the great experience ends with their high end (and a few mid-range) phones. When it comes to low end devices, the likes of Samsung , LG, HTC and Sony are useless. Yes, you read it right. People buy them with the inner belief they’re getting something great, but trust me, the reverse is the case here.

If you want to buy a cheap Android device, look away from these popular brands because their low end devices are under specced and over priced.
