Post-Crisis Fukushima

2011-09-16T19:35:00.000-07:00

A look at Fukushima prefecture six months after the unfortunate nuclear disaster.
I still marvel at the dignified manner in which the Japanese people reacted to the
incident. They set examples the whole world should strive to follow.

POWERMAT

2009-09-28T05:31:00.000-07:00

I've been screaming about POWERMAT for a while now. But reading about it can never beat seeing a hands on demonstration of its capacities.
That being said, this video shows that the company are taking their technology to a different level (embedded in worktops and kitchen countertops). On the positive side = low bills, on the negative = quick cancer? LOL!

The Light Up Nigeria Movement

2009-08-21T08:18:00.000-07:00

I have tried to ignore The Light Up Nigeria Movement but as this shows, have failed. This post will be edited at a later time to expose the many criticisms I hold against this campaign. Is this another amenity that Nigerians wish for but cannot really afford? (see Fuel prices, premium education, law enforcement etc). However, it must be noted that the movement holds far more advantages than disadvantages; which is why I use this post as a platform for its exposure.

Why Nigerian art will continue to suffer!

2009-07-22T07:07:00.000-07:00

If you are anything like me (okay, you're not). But if you are an art enthusiast or even just an admirer, you will more than likely have explored the potential of the artists from your own country. This is because their work will inevitably hit a sentimental soft spot; as you might have been subliminally exposed to some of their themes in your growing years.
In my own exploration, i've come to find that most successful Nigerian artists - although tradtionally influenced - are based and exhibit in Europe or America (as with sports, academia, literature and any other form of expression really).
To this phenomenon, I have recently come across a strong answer to the question "Why so?".

Pastor uses manhood for "deliverance"

2009-03-15T16:56:00.000-07:00

Well I thought I had seen the worst of the weirds after the goat debacle but this story really shocked me. I've often argued that sex is the factor that determines most of man's activities on earth, but this came as a real shocker. Well, it still teaches that as long as there is sex, there will be innovative ideas! Lol!

Louis Farrakhan "corrects" Mike Wallace

2009-03-10T17:23:00.000-07:00

Mike Wallace attempts to sling mud at Nigeria but is (quite rightly) cut short by Louis Farrakhan. I feel this is worth a post because it's one of the very few times Mr Farrakhan has expressed an entirely objective view. Also, it makes me wonder what point Mr Wallace was attempting to make before he was cut short..
