FamilyRe: Marriage Has Failed Me! by yongg:
They have not given birth to whatever human sibling to so disrespect a partner beloved that I have chosen in this manner.

I'm boiling just reading this.

Even all outer onion will feel my presence. Nonsense.

Your relationship to your husband is what is important because it is through him they would/should get access to you.

I cannot speak for your husband but after telling his sister off, standing his ground on the least amount of respect to be accorded to his spouse, I felt he should have had no problem limiting their interference in marriage trying to pursue his already married wife.

Talk to your husband about what bothers you when any confrontation happens, don't nag, just talk or discuss about it maturely.

You say your husband blames you for her behavior sometimes, I would like to know what the blames sounds like apart from the text you sent them during the mourning.

Restore your job, I understand the mental toll and stress your must have suffered during the time but loosing an income source should be one of the last things to do when in a situation like this.

This is because your backup plan should things go awry will depend on building some back up income and savings as a safety bracket should such shenanigans you already witnessed replay or increase in future when you might be older and more frail. They have shown their hand, keep your peaceful demeanor while prepping your backup simultaneously.

Look, not to be pessimistic but, you have to hope for the best BUT ALWAYS prepare for the worst.

This is the residence seen on Google map:

So anybody entering can be seen in full from the landlord's apartment.
Please don't just complain this way. Leave a review and the location.... Actual address for their attempt to truncate every other person's human right so that at the very least potential clients will know the nature of their agreement people the time wastage and sour experience involved.

Are you in Lagos or Abuja?
Do you still need the Solar installation, inverters, tubular inverter batteries with durability and high performance from a reliable brand?
Pls WhatsApp us on o8o32261712 for price chart/qoutation.
Thank you.
Just write one message in a post and copy the names/moniker of the person you would like to reply. They will all see it. No need to spam the message and it saves time and keeps things tidy. Good luck.

You tried.

I would suggest upgrading your panels to 300Watts. Panels are never excess. nothing bad if your batteries goes from 40% to 100% charged before 12PM. and during prolonged rainy days, You no go bother at all.

Also change your Fan to RechargeAble fan - those fans that uses batteries. You could buy them NEW or USED. The current draw is very very low. There are reChargeAble ceiling fans also, though I have never used them.

Myself, I am good with electronics and used to building things hence when I got into Solar, I added the experience.

When you get everything, then na battery upGrades you go dey do once in a while so long you go for quality brands, and don't abuse them.

Should I tell you what forced me into using solar, you go understand say some of us don suffer for government hand.

Before I started using solar, I built a laptop battery that could last over 2-days on single charge. Abeg make person no ask make i do for am because nowAdays, i no just get time again, unlike before. Person dey grow up you know.
I agree. It is not the end. I plan to optimize the system over time. It was just the most sensible thing to install considering the power situation. It has already proved cost effective while unoptimized, so there's room for improvement.

Actually, It reaches the battery equalization phase by around 12pm - 2pm typically daily. It reaches float almost daily except during cloud cover and dark rainy periods. Also I don't turn on all devices simultaneously except during rare days when the sun is just being super with the delivery and it's all clear and bright.

Your 2-day battery build sounds really amazing I won't mind to get the info on it smiley

I hope you don't stop building, I would like to start learning fundamentals of magnetism and electromagnetism, coil building... I have been seeing wonderful stuffs like how a 33W input voltage can return the power of a 3-5kva easily. If I succeed, energy issues will be gone, like forever, lols.

I created a rainFountain around mine. I used 6pcs showerHead all connected to hose and runs down the building. During harmattan season, or during prolonged absence of rain, I just connect the hose to the tap and that cleans the panels automatically. Me no fit dey rent ladder to climb roof everytime
Hi, I would like to see the installation of the fountain.

I thought about this while preparing for the installation of mine, but my budget had been surpassed and it was a rented space so I needed to limit my roof work and plan strategically for a possible future expansion.

My system is a
300W (0.3KVA) PSW Solar Inverter,
220AH Safe power Deep cycle battery ( I believe it's gel, it's also second handed)
20A/100V MPPT (Rigorous research got me this, I'm so satisfied with it)
2 x 170 W (340W total, efficiency estimated:0.3*340 (realistic expectation of about 100W for 3-6 hours of daylight)) Solar Panels

It cost me 300k - 400k NGN to install mid 2022.


My load profile:
5W LED Bulb
3W LED Bulb (cold lumens, that is that yellow hue/color light, I actually prefer the hot color, the pure white but it was unavailable)
1 19V Dell Laptop
1 850VA UPS (I charge this during peak sunlight of the day)
1 180W Refrigerator (I run this during peak sunlight when battery is fully charged between 30mins to 2hrs, If there's something critical to refrigerate, a 2 hour run is sufficient to last the freezer compartment of the refrigerator 2 days, so I can skip 1 day and allow it replenish battery charge better the following day, not all day sequences are perfect because of cloud cover. In addition, I use timed switches in order not to overload them batteries, because one may not always be there to monitor the time and manually switch these things off, so it's all programmed to a T).
1 35W Standing Fan: this is the most surprising appliance, I guess it's because of the induction coils. draws a whole 5A on its lowest speed(which is nothing to write about really) and 6.2A on the highest. It proved the most challenging to program into the timed switches because when the heat waves comes, it comes, non-dependent of time of day but with temperature and humidity with the bottomline being how much battery charge you have left and the work schedule ahead.
1 4.5kg washing machine run only during peak of day and battery is equalizing

Because of the way I have programmed my living, the priority device is the laptop. I also have IR Solar Lamp that come on when motion of a heated body is detected to compliment navigation between the two rooms, restroom.


So far, this is the 8th month of use and I am extremely satisfied with it. It has already covered the its cost equivalent to PHCN already. When I have time I will make better cost-benefit analysis of the system. Worst Lv1 case scenario is that the battery packs up and that's ok. I will still have value of the MPPT, the solar PV panels, cables and inverter. It is so much better than roaming the surroundings looking for petrol(gas) (Oh how I dislike going out unnecessarily), mechanic for servicing, oil replacement, buying and replacing parts, suffering from the noise and air pollution (problem here is that you won't be able to control your neighbors that aren't using solar/inverter)

I highly doubt that. undecided
Lols, I will find it and get back to you..

This would mean both death counts for both person (Moses and Elijah) will both be 2. That's because I am also considering John's death as Elijah's own even when Elijah -iteration 0 didn't die and was taken up by chariots.


UPDATE:

My bad, sorry my subconscious already associated the two witness who weren't explicitly identified, based on their characteristic power the possessed and the appearance on the mount of transfiguration . That was a mistake because we can only guess who they actually are until more knowledge about their identity is revealed.

I even came across this article https://www.gotquestions.org/two-witnesses.html. Kinda explains better.

Just an aside to the mention of John and Elijah. Recall God spared Elijah from the wrath of King Ahab's wife, Queen Jezebel. Well, God returned him, Elijah, as John so they could do to him what they had wanted to do to him. That is what Jesus Christ said in Matthew 17 vs 12 undecided
Yes, what Jesus Christ meant by the above was that Elijah was spared by God from being killed by Jezebel in his first lifetime but he was returned back as John to have that act completed as recorded. undecided
Amazing connections you have there...

There's another connection to Elijah somewhere in Revelations, where it is mentioned that Moses and him(Elijah) will be killed again after being returned and will be re-resurrected.

▪︎ God cursed and scattered His people to all the winds as as result of their sins - Deuteronomy 30 vs 1 - 6 - and a result there are those of Israel roots to be found in pretty much every tribe, every tongue and every nation of this earth, living and breeding with gentiles hence themselves Gentiles. undecided

▪︎ God sent Jesus Christ to gather back to His mountain at His time all those of Israel who He had scattered to the winds as He said He would- Isaiah 66 vs 18 - 25 - and Jesus Christ made this known when He declared that He came only for the lost sheep of Israel(not just the Jewish tribes of Israel). undecided

▪︎Peter, at the time, was of the Jewish subset of Israel who had yet to be cursed and scattered by God and harbored the idea that God cared only for he Jewish nation(excluding those who of them who were among the Gentiles). undecided

▪︎ As earlier explained, Cornelius, though a gentile, was also of the House of Jacob -- his ancestry can be traced back to Jacob- and as such qualified to be taught of God's New Covenant, Jesus Christ, but Peter hesitated because Cornelius was not a jew - born of the tribe of Judah Benjamin or Levi - and this is reason why a vision was given him, Peter, explaining that all of God's Israel was included in His promise. undecided
Nice clarification.

Now I see where the ping at the back of my mind was coming from, grin. I actually want to know where Cornelius' ancestry is recorded. My searches on it are not successful.

Those who are descendants of Jacob aka Israelites. undecided

God's Old Law of Moses was given by God only to Israelites .I.e. those born of the blood of Jacob. undecided
Throuh the prophets, God also promised His agreement of peace - Jesus Christ- only to those who are of the blood of Jacob. So when Jesus Christ declare that He was sent only to the lost sheep of israel, He said that only those who are of the blood of Jacob can partake in the Kingdom of God.. undecided
Yes, I understand this. it is just that no reference of Cornelius as blood of Jacob and the passage where he comes up is mentioned where Peter is made to understand that salvation is to be extended to Gentiles too... starting with Cornelius as per the records in the book of Acts of the Apostles (Acts 10: 35-44).

Yes, and Cornelius also happened to be of the blood of Jacob evidence from the fact that His works were acknowledged by God whose Law of Moses only applies to those who are of the House of Israel - Ezekiel 18 vs 1 - 28 & Ezekiel 33 vs 9 - 20 , and He, Cornelius was also born-again in a Law, Jesus Christ, which also only applies as far as those who are of the House of Jacob - Matthew 15 vs 22 - 26. undecided
I wish I understood the "blood of Jacob" reference you made concerning Cornelius.

Cornelius was an Israelite and according to God’s Law, those of them who did God works in penitence would be made right with God, a granting of eternal life- Ezekiel 18 vs 1 - 32 & Ezekiel 33 vs 10 - 20. This is the same salvation from God's Old Law which was given to Zacchaeus and to the thief on the cross. undecided
Na Cornelius is said to be the first Gentile convert in the book of Acts, the commander of an Italian regiment of the Romani Army, but gentiles have those privileges extended to them, I think..

But according to scripture, those of you who cling to the doctrines and traditions of men(and their many churches) know nothing of God. As a matter of fact, Jesus Christ said that such people are instead against God in their decision to follow religion instead of God's Law in the Kingdom of God - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 & Mark 7 vs 1 - 13 undecided

2. Self righteousness refers to doing works of righteousness such as feeding the poor, clothing the naked, taking care of the sick, homing the homeless, visiting those in prison, all while living in disobedience of God's direct commandments and teachings. undecided
Is it me or was Cornelius found from his point 2.

He is a Spiritualist. Here, it means someone who practises spirituality or believes God but doesn't serve Him through a system (Church, Mosque, etc.) yet claims to be.

#For whatever reason he stopped going to church (a necessary duty in Christianity) shows that he's not a true christian.

A true christian is like Job. He never separates himself from God, no matter what.

NOTE: You can't claim to serve God and not belong to a system. It's like saying you're a student yet you don't attend a school.
Which synagogue did John the Baptist attend while in the wilderness, how about the other 7000 (I think) prophets that were hidden in plain sight while Jezebele was frustrating the obvious ones and Elijah?

I strongly believe it is essentially a personal journey at a certain level.

BusinessRe: New Naira Notes Unveiled (Pictures) by yongg: 1:40pm On Nov 23, 2022
Yes, it is not the best looking aesthetic currency note out there, however, I think this is could turn out to be a really strategic good move on the part of the CBN, potentially, if they have good follow up plans to back the resets and strategic pauses that will be available to them.

For one ransom payments accumulated will pass through KYC or recaptured else the value will be lost. When capture, if they setup in due process procedures to question large suspicious deposit, stolen value like those from kidnapping, banditry and ransome payments will be recovered.

When the above recovery happens, the artificial inflation will reduce because value will return back to circulation, HOWEVER because the losers here will be largely criminals, you can sure a hell expect a spike in kidnapping and other crime in an attempt to recompensate for what the CBN would have recovered but IF there is a well systemized (systemized not political) plan in place it buy the government time to start the fight against the prevalent crimes afresh (the reset), if they don't put up a good front against these crime that will spike the benefit will be temporary as all the indices will return to their abysmal states gradually.

There's also the added benefit of pausing potential vote buyers in their tracks or at least make it difficult for the bribing to happen as this was timed just before the incoming elections.

Whichever government coming in, if they have good program, will have the opportunity to start a new round of fight against crime with mitigated loss of the previous regime. This only works if the plan's is good else the new regime will be bedeviled with crimes success rates as that of the previous regime.

My wallet right now is full of moldy, half torn pieces of the currency. Why is nobody asking questions?
Well, from my observations, most new notes I come across is usually from seemingly high class citizens or well to do individuals. High class hotels ATM, I don't know if high net worth individual with private banking privileges could enjoy that. I guessing it wouldn't be so far-fetched.

Nigeria have not produce a leader without blemish that can enforce our law as it is enforced in developed countries.
This is depressing. That should even be beyond the grasp of said leader. It is supposed to be a system.

The judiciary should be having words with the stakeholders. But it is flawed here and the judiciary is effectively absent a good number of the times and channel resources to service things like elections or to do with big public office holders, meanwhile the rest of the demand of justice to keep the society cohesive is largely unmet and then the process is not streamlined for efficient delivery and enforcement.

Funny thing is even if the consequence is small like say few years in prison but the enforcement is sure and the judgement is swift, everybody will reorganize and act well. Lesser need for over the top punishment like killing or life.

That is what systems are meant to do. You commit, you collect no biases. But that is not what you have in place here.

1. Judgement is skewed.
2. The essence of the judgement is also skewed.
3. Judgement is not uniform or commensurate when far more mightier theft convicts are involved.

There is alot of problem if justice is delayed (or incapable (deliberately or not)) or haphazardly passed because the parties involved are perceived low class citizens.

Armed robbery is a grievous crime and should not in anyway be compared with pen robbery.

Yrs, politicians, yahoo boys, corrupt civil servants and lecturers should be severely dealt with but their crimes are significantly different.
I disagree, The crimes of upper class citizens politicians and the likes especially here and the way funds are being looted is way more far reaching than you imagine.

In fact, it is possible that the development that would have stirred the thoughts of these brothers to commit this crime in the first place could have enamated from some missed/stolen development, or action or task or project that would have fix the welfare of the greater population, or educated them a lot more to consider their actions

The increment in price you have here is mostly artificial... Someone is not doing what there were supposed to do... The Chief security in charge is not working hence people pay more for things because crime has been demanding Ransome from people with critical jobs of economic importance like food(farmers), commerce, goods and services.

The same system managed by the government that has prioritize terrorists above law enforcement and the military means that you hard earned money in tax is even moving to the hands of terrorists... You think you can account for the amount of mind *uck going on but you can't and you will be pissed when you do the reflection because it is wide reaching.

The fact that outsiders enjoy your nation's wealth more than you do doesn't move you?
