Christianity EtcRe: How Can You Prove To An Atheist That God Exists? by YoshiMaster:
Honestly I am not sure how I can prove it to people, maybe by my actions, I'm not sure.

I have experienced him personally, but obviously people can't see what I saw of feel how I felt.

I would say this though, that the evidence of God is in creation.

As an Engineer myself, I love to think outside the box creatively, whether in software design, or instrumentation design or whatever. The key here is that in any project design, there is a lot of thought that we put into it, each sub system that forms the whole design needs to be planned carefully, and executed correctly.

In the same way I look at the universe, and I know that it was designed intelligently, I know that it did not happen by chance. The way that I can raise my fingers just by thinking, I can breathe in air that I can't see, the massive body of heat that is the sun that shines on us but doesn't kill us, the way the earth rotates and revolves causing day/night, and seasons, the way all the nerves in my body are linked.....

So many things here tell us that this world was designed for us, and we were designed for the world, its just very hard to refute that, and in accepting that, then one has to accept that there is a Creator.

This is not just a Nigerian thing though, some humans are just evil. In the U.S, crimes against family members may even be worse, since they have very comprehensive life insurance policies there for family members.

I hear cases all the time of wifes trying to kill their husbands to cash in on the huge life insurance policy, and vice versa. in one case the woman wanted to kill the man, so she could claim the $1,000,000 life insurance.

My own is that I just don't understand how people of the same blood can turn against each other, that is beyond evil.

Okija_juju: General Warning:: FILMING AN OFFICER ON DUTY IS NOW ILLEGAL IN NIGERIA..

The attention of the Nigerian Police Force has been drawn to the new trend of filming Ofiicers of the Nigerian Police. Please be warned that Officers are not movie stars to be filmed, neither are they entertainers. They are our Law enforcement agents and this filming has been found to interfere with the jobs of our gallant men and women of the Law. So from hence forth, anybody found filming an officer will be arrested for 'interfering with Police work', 'Invasion of the Privacy of an Officer', 'Illegal filming without proper permit', amongst other sundry charges and such persons would be arrested, their cameras siezed and the 'evidence destroyed' and then they will be charged to court.

Please note that resisting arrest is also an offence and deadly force is permitted to be used by an officer to effect such arrests.

Thanks..

Ngozi Braide
POLICE P.R.O


[b]Word of the Gods:: This new trend of filming officers and shaddy Nigerians in general is beginning to spread like wild fire. Already, its been used in the ALUU 4 & the Badagry lynching to bring to the conciousness of Nigerians the ugliness of Jungle justice in the Country and how the Police aides and abbets this crime. Its been used by Business peoples as well, such as the Otedola|Lawan saga (audio available on Youtube) and the Shell Petroleum Company Scandal where a Contractor recorded a manager demanding bribe (also available on Youtube). It was also used years ago when the Men of the Nigerian Navy assaulted and stripped a Woman in public over traffic right of way. Now the Police in in focus and they are not happy about this.
For all future filmers, please take extreme precaution. People will be shot for this very soon (thats a guarantee). For those who dare to, please try and use devices like iphones that have icloud activated (so that even if your phone is siezed, your recording is already stored in the clouds and cannot be retrieved easily). For others, please try and get spy gadgets like Camera pens, watches and other indoor|outdorr hidden cameras for future recordings. Also, please in your recordings (both audio and video), try and capture the following important deatils;
1. Face
2. Voice
3. Name
4. Number

Without these clearly seen|heard on your videos|audios, it is actually a wasted venture only good for entertainment and not prosecution.. This tool is to be used for all those meetings where you want to expose a shaddy|underhand dealing, example:: Use this with LASTMA, POLICE, Business Meetings, e.t.c..

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Do Footballers And Sportmen Deserve Higher Wage by YoshiMaster: 10:25pm On Sep 01, 2013
pekelepekele: They don't deserve it but they are getting that pay because of the "BETTING WORLD" . Do you know that 70% of sport fanatics are into sport betting?

Sport betting alone generates over $20 bn in the united states alone annually .

Now lets assume the op is lionel messi and your pay is not more than $20k weekly and I am a bookie that own a website like bet365 dot com . I can easily approach you with $100k for you to make sure your team loses against a very simple team that no one ever expect to win.

All you just have to do is get on the pitch and injure any of the player on the opposite team seriously that the referee will have no other option than to give you a red card .

That is the main reason why the key players pay keeps sky rocketing annually.

But despite the huge pay some players are still selling out to the bookies . undecided

Of course they deserve it, its not like they are getting the money from some unknown source, no. The money is coming directly from you and me that pay our hard earned cash to be entertained by them, and from sponsors that also make money indirectly from them by sponsoring them.

Even if you do not pay to watch them personally, so many people out there have goals of saving up money so they can go see their sport heroes live.

Regarding sport betting, that is nothing but excessive greed on the part of any player that intentionally throws a game for additional financial gain.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Do Footballers And Sportmen Deserve Higher Wage by YoshiMaster: 10:00pm On Sep 01, 2013
Look at it this way, if you can get a couple hundred or thousand of people to pay you on a regular basis, then of course the money will pile up.

Imagine if you had a talking goat, and you start charging your neighbors NGN1,000 per conversation, and then the whole city, and country, everybody wanting to pay to see your talking goat, of course you will be a rich man, duh!

Speaking of GOATS, Kobe, one of the GOATS, earns a whopping 30 mill for LA Lakers.

Science/TechnologyRe: How To Build An Inverter Ranging From 250 Watts To 5000 Watts by YoshiMaster: 5:40pm On Sep 01, 2013
maclee: well its depends on the rating of the solar panel and the charger, you may decide to add an extra battery and it will charge perfectly.. But adding the solar panel can result you adding a simple circuit that consist of zener diode to cutoff the voltage when it is fully charged and when it sense another voltage from other source
Thanks for the response, I'm looking in depth now into charge controller specifications to see if any would fit this situation.
Science/TechnologyRe: Solar Panel Question, Please Help! by YoshiMaster(op): 5:37pm On Sep 01, 2013
Thanks guys for the responses, I am looking at spec sheets now for different charge controllers to see all their functions, besides the obvious stepping down of the solar panel voltage to match that of the battery bank.

If all else fails, I would have to manually trigger the breaker for the solar panel whenever there is light, but that would be very stressful.
Science/TechnologySolar Panel Question, Please Help! by YoshiMaster(op): 4:28pm On Aug 31, 2013
I am trying to connect solar panels to my existing inverter-battery system, were the inverter currently charges the batteries.

Giving that the inverter charges the batteries, if I add solar panels to the mix via a charge controller, won't that overcharge the batteries?

I can't find literature online pertaining to the Nigerian situation, as most topics discuss either on grid or off grid systems.

Hey Mr.Maclee you seem rather knowledgeable about this. Please do you know as much with regards to solar panels and charge controllers?

I would like to connect solar panels to my existing inverter-battery system.

The case now is that the inverter charges the batteries, it has an inbuilt charger. If I then go ahead and add a solar panel to the mix, won't that overcharge the batteries?

They tell you that the matter is finished, yeah, just what courageous people would say right?

Can't people focus more on the act of the soldier who is in clear violation of human rights? If you are to criticize, why can't you criticize constructively?

It's people like these that would tell a girl that has been raped, that she is stupid for not closing her legs.

Nairaland GeneralRe: High Death Rate On The Lekki Expressway by YoshiMaster: 3:25am On Aug 29, 2013
delors: This road shouldnt be an expressway! if there are bus stops, then it not a highway...it is a commercial way; that is why there are bus stops.
No 2, how in heaven will the lights depend on PHCN when we know the capacity and 'efficiency' of PHCN? Street lights that i know off now, are dependent on solar power...and a country like Nigeria where sun (heat) isnt a problem should power street lights using solar power. With the tolls they collect this shouldnt be hard. This is a big scam and absolute disregard of human safety.
If there must be pedestrian bridges, then it must be at every bus stop or at every 250m. More so, speed limit should be set and displayed on the expressway to caution reckless drivers, while pedestrians should be advised to use the pedestrian bridges if available.
When are we gonna learn?
I like the idea of speed limits, but when you think of the enforcers, and lack of technology like speed guns, you start to get discouraged a bit.

If a leader is born out of nairaland some day, I hope they will remember all these posts and implement the big and the little things that would make our society better. The devil as they say, is in the details.
Nairaland GeneralRe: High Death Rate On The Lekki Expressway by YoshiMaster: 3:05am On Aug 29, 2013
kokoye: Traffic lights to replace roundabouts on a so-called expressway?? same dumb idea..sorry
Well I am happy you said "so-called", while referring to the Lekki-Express way. It means we both agree that the road doesn't represent what we have come to imagine when we envision a highway, although by definition, it is still considered a highway.

With that said, the whole point of the roundabouts already present on that road is to rugulate the traffic at the intersections were they are present. I am sure you can agree, as the "so called" highway has smaller feeder roads, feeding directly into the roundabout.

Now at those roundabouts, you would notice that traffic is already slower, much slower than before approaching the roundabout. Pretty much, the lights would act as a more organized form of the roundabouts, with design logic giving preference to the cars on the "so called" highway in terms of how long the light stays green.

So in essence you already have a bad situation, with buses stopping along the "so-called" highway and pedestrians trying to cross. I merely offered a solution I think would fit the present situation, its either that, or more pedestrian bridges are built, or we get rid of the bus stops all together along the "so called" highway, making it a true highway by most standards.
Nairaland GeneralRe: High Death Rate On The Lekki Expressway by YoshiMaster:
617aircav: One big issue is Nigerian drivers have zero respect for pedestrians. In other countries, drivers are very wary of pedestrians and do their best to avoid them because they know the consequences if they hit them. In Nigeria, there are no consequences. How will the police find a hit and run driver? Human life in Nigeria carries no value, seeing a dead body on the roadside does not shock people as they are used to it. What do you expect in a barbaric society that burns people alive. Op you concerns are valid, but I'm afraid nothing cam be done unless the whole attitude of Nigerians change.
While I agree with you to some extent that people do not respect pedestrians, the issue with regards to Lekki Freeway to me lies more with safely evacuating the pedestrians.

Have you ever wondered why people walk right on the road in Nigeria, even when there are side walks? I was driving one day on the free way, and some guy was just walking by the side of the road, I mean a few more inches and the guy would be on top of the curb, walking safely. So some of these guys are in fact daredevils.

You have to understand that, typically on a highway, cars move at higher speeds compared to other roads. Ideally, no pedestrian should be anywhere near a car that is doing 100Km/h, seriously!

Since the case of Nigeria is different, and we have pedestrians crossing "so called" highways, then a responsible government should think of practical ways of evacuating pedestrians.

How would any government approve a bus stop along side speeding cars, with no effective means of crossing. Pedestrians bridges at the moment are too far spread apart.
Nairaland GeneralRe: High Death Rate On The Lekki Expressway by YoshiMaster: 1:51am On Aug 29, 2013
In any sane society, pedestrians shouldn't be crossing a highway.

Some Nigerians are simply insane, every car on the highway has right of way, that should first be established. As a pedestrian, why can't you simply wait till there is an opportunity to cross safely.

The solution to this problem, I think, has many parts. First off, passengers at bus stops need to be evacuated safely either by pedestrian bridges or the use of traffic lights with pedestrian crossing.

I personally hate roundabouts, especially those put on the Lekki-Express Freeway, I feel roundabouts are just poor solutions at intersections. Left to me, all the roundabouts should be done away with, and in their places, there should be traffic lights installed.

Now once you have these traffic lights at strategic points, when the bus stops, the passengers can safely cross on the next red (which will actually be green for pedestrian crossing). Roundabouts don't provide this feature, and are very archaic.

If the roundabouts are kept the way they are, more pedestrian bridges that compare to some extent with the amount of bus stops along that road, need to be built.
