You can get them from Alibaba or Ebay and Amazon. Plus they ain't that xpenssive plus software is free. I can get you a link. Try an research how much it will cost U to get threaded rod at least 2 ft long 12 mm down there.

a link would be highly appreciated-Especially a link to a CHEAP arduino mega 2560 R3.
And i really don't know how a 12mm threaded rod looks like. I once went to buy a threaded rod, but they had a different naming convention. They were using names like size 2, size 4, etc and the traders had no idea what i meant by 12mm. Any help will be appreciated

Business › Re: How To Make Serious Income Online With CPA by zikIPE: 2:33pm On Feb 19, 2016

Escoboss:
So what does CPA means, certified public accountant? You think so, maybe but let's see..

CPA means cost per Action. You make money each time a supposed action is completed by a target audience in regards to an offer you promoting.
These actions ranges from submitting details of email adress, phone number,zip code.. downloading something, taking a survey, submitting CC details etc. Each time such actions is completed you generate a lead and your leads converts to cash.

For each action taken you get paid, the more the actions completed the more the cash..The pay you get per lead depends on the offer.. Generally, the Pay per lead ranges from $0.50- $15 depending on the offer and the target country for your traffic.. Let's figure out you promoting an offer that pays $2.50 per lead(that is when somebody completes the supposed action required), this means if you could generate 1000 leads you make $2500 ..it could be much more & it could be much less, it all depends on your traffic.

Now let me show you something, countless times online you must have come across a pop-up/Ads asking you take a survey and stand a chance to win a giftcard or iphone/ipad.. Sometimes you have to submit some details such as email adress, phone line and maybe name.. Sometimes it could be winning some points or playing a game! Now those were all CPA offers and when complete action is taken by you, you make somebody somewhere richer.. Oh yea!

Let me also go to the explicit side of it, to those of you that visit porn sites you may have come across tempting and compelling ADs on the site telling you to click and hookup with a girl for sex or date; definitely many will click and once you click you'd be asked to sign up on the site or fill in some details.. In completing this action, you just generated a lead for somebody somewhere(the affiliate) and got that person paid.
How about Apps! Yea apps, we download apps online to our mobile or pc. Most of this Apps placed on some sources for dowlnloads are offers being promoted by a CPA marketer and the person make his/her pay each time people download..
Another thing is content locking, a lot of people do this in the course of browsing online but they don't know they actually completing an action of a CPA offer for someone. Affiliates lock important info which you may need and when you seek to get this info you'd be asked complete some simple tasks. I mean You are being asked to complete a simple required action before you able to acess the content/ info online..

So that's how it works.. You see, This is just the simplest way to make pay online.. I even see it as the future too cause other models is getting too compeititive. Many don't know. But well, I guess that's why you here..

I'll be showing you how I have and still making pay with CPA and how you can make money from CPA..
I am ready to teach my secrets to only serious folks and at a stage I'm gone seperate the few from the pack..

I will start fully from my next post. My updates will be in steps so if you are ready to make money follow my steps and take action..
What you need to get started;

A device that can reliably acess the net 24/7.
Pc/tab.

A CPA network.

An offer to promote.

TRAFFIC..

You get these things, you make money

Abiamaterial u seem to have comprehensibility issues.. The number of students in Private school, do they outweigh the ones in public schools Answer the question Abiamaterial

do you have any documented research saying they do not?? I advice you to use your data prudently instead of engaging in blind arguements....obviously, whatever university gave you a 2:1 for book knowledge should have added a 3:0 for common sense

Education › Re: Why South East Is Doomed by zikIPE: 5:22pm On Feb 18, 2016

playdude:
Fool, so only private schools take WAEC in Abia, and have you engaged your little sense on the percentage of Private students to public school students. Now I see why your sense is the way it is. AbiaMaterial.. Perfectly foolish

you spend 1 year in Abia and you're suddenly an authority on all things Abia-related?? Tell me something.

Firstly, I lived in abia for a long time which is why i can tell you that there are more private schools than public schools. In fact, the education sector has been over run by private induviduals who still follow a government educational curriculum/ scheme of work. The number of serious private schools in abia is enough to put it in the lead.
.
.
And lastly, you are a prize fool. What you are doing now is like judging villagers based on your assessment of the village drunkard. Grow up, get a life, get a job....if you had a job, you wouldn't have time to pick on a whole ethnic group.

First of all, i ask that seun richiez lalasticlala myndd44 obinoscopy afam4eva and all other sane mods shut down this thread.

Secondly, i'd like to clear the air on this matter before the thread is shut down.
I had my secondary education years ago in abia state and i'll have you know that the state has an abundance of private schools who are dedicated to instilling discipline and knowledge in young adults. I do not know if the deranged OP served in a public or private school but one thing is sure....He is deranged. Only a deranged, jealous and hateful man will judge the whole Abia state based on figures gotten from one school in Ibeku. I may not know your ethnicity but if i am to judge you based on what a section of your ethnic group has done, i doubt you'll pass scrutiny.

Personally, i think this is all BS as there are so many variables which can't be accounted for, i say it's impossible to predict time of death.
OP said he found a month in which a person is most unlikely to die and i'm like, Da Fuq. Probability of dying in a certain month of a particular year is just 1/12. probability of not dying in that same month is 11/12....go figure, if you know what i mean

Culture › With The Addition Of The Igbo Language On Facebook by zikIPE(op): 6:33pm On Feb 10, 2016*

Hello people,
As I was enjoying my facebook today, I got a notification asking me to help translate the English language to Igbo. now, that brings about a whole new set of problems which include the absence of an Igbo equivalent for like. The Igbo people 'LOVE', we do not 'LIKE'. another problem being the absence of a single word representing 'comment'. sure, there's an Igbo phrase for comment, but to the best of my knowledge, there's no single word for it.
so, basically, the Igbo Language on my facebook is written in English....at least, for now. if you're Igbo and have any suggestions on Igbo words to use as replacement for English words on facebook, feel free to contribute

Day2
hello Bruce, I'm back from a long, boring church service; The preacher kept going on and on about seed-sowing. I couldn't help but notice that the leader of the youths' female wing had a new hair do on. Her name's Jane and she's one pretty Angel who i've been crushing on for the most part of my life BTW, me and her go way back and recently, she's been acting weird. I think she may be into me. Finally, my years of looking good have started to pay off(who am I kidding, I don't even look that good).
Well, on to more interesting stuff, I swear you won't believe this. Dave just asked me to meet he and a friend for coffee tomorrow. man, this has got to be the best moment of my life(apart from the moment when I got my first salary). For pete's sake, this is Dave; cool dude with cool friends. i've got to practice my breathing exercises and look my best for tomorrow. There's no telling when I might get another opportunity like this. It's not everyday a guy as cool as dave decides to hang with a nerd like me.
Bye for now, see you tomorrow when I must have had coffee with Dave. not like I even like coffee but if it's what the cool guys are having, so am I.

Day1
It is 5:30pm and i've just gotten back from work. Oh, how glad i am to be home where i'm free; no rules, no annoying co-workers, no demanding boss. And most especially, no dave. You remember dave, right?? Maybe you've forgotten but i'll remind you. Dave was my senior in secondary school, he's 6'3" tall, has a broad chest(probably from using me as a punching bag in secondary school), has a handsome face with a jaw that looks like it was carved from marble. This, most definitely explains why he's popular with people.
Now let's talk about me. Me?? I'm your average Tom. Nothing eye catching about me. I'm 5'4" tall, i have this nerdy look, came top of my class at UNIZIK class of '08, i'm also a bit skinny(mum used to say it's because i didn't eat all my vegetables as a kid, LOL).
From my bio, you might have guessed why i need to keep this diary. Owkay,for those of you with the IQ of a goldfish, i'll say it out loud-"NOBODY WANTS THE NERD". Which, BTW, is my main reason for hating Dave. He hangs out with all the cool people, chills at the coolest places. Urghh!! I hate that guy.
Well, dear diary, you just became my best friend. I think i'll name you Bruce( named after my favourite martial artist, Bruce Lee). My name is stanley (friends call me small stan though) and you're welcome to my world

Romance › Stingy Couples by zikIPE(op): 1:59pm On Jan 16, 2016

Hello everyone
so, sometime ago I visited a lawyer I know just to check on him. He's married to a magistrate and has a daughter who's less than 2 years old. while I was there, one of his boys dropped by for money to run errands for him. The man says to his wife, ''Honey, can you give him some money, we'll talk later'' and the wife is like, ''Darling, I don't have any money with me too''.
Then I said to myself "if the legal profession isn't that profitable, why do people rush into it?? or are they just being stingy to one another??"

There's another parked at AROMA junction near Anambra broadcast service, another close to Arthur Eze junction, still another at Agu Awka roundabout.
just wait till 6pm and you'll see these men harrass okada/keke riders for 20 naira.

What's the difference? New cars, same old extortion still going on.

I guess you were going towards Okpuno.

i can vouch for the ones at Y-Junction.....there was a day i passed there around 8. They were doing their jobs well and i did not witness any extortion.

Please, those cars are parked beside the road, not on the road itself.this is Y-Junction where there is an intersection between two roads. Roads in awka are well tarred.
