I want to do something. And, I have been thinking real hard about how I as an individual can help ensure that this flooding doesn't recur. I do not mind writing a proposal to the government. I just need some ideas. How have you tackled flooding in your country? What works and what doesn't? Share your thoughts with me.
I'm sorry to say but your effort alone will not amount to much if a bad government is still in power. The government know exactly what to do but this again is a result of the failure on their part to complete projects. From the news,
Quote
Records indicate that Cameroon and Nigeria were  supposed to build two dams at inception, such that the Nigerian dam, known as Dasin Hausa dam which was to be in Adamawa State, would contain water released from the Lagdo Dam at any point in time.

 Completion and fulfillment of the agreement to build a dam would have saved us the current situation Nigeria is currently in with the flood. if you are searching for ideas on what to do, you can consider writing an open or closed letter to them urging them to complete the agreement and finish the dam.
2042  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency should be infused to academic systems on: October 17, 2022, 04:31:05 PM
Cryptocurrency should be adopted as a course of study in academic systems worldwide, from basic classes, through the higher institutions.
Cryptocurrency should be taught to little children at tender age and implemented/approved for basic transactions within academic environments to improve knowledge and usage, spread and utility of cryptocurrency to ensure safer and smarter transactions as well as to enlighten the students as kids and adults on the utility, conservation, spread and improvement of cryptocurrency.
It should also be made known that knowledge of Cryptocurrency is a form of empowerment to the young ones and adults.
While we wait for cryptocurrency to be included in our academic system which may take a while as crypto is still fighting for acceptance on a mainstream, we can first become academics to the young people around us and try to educate them about cryptocurrency just as some members of this forum have been doing for some time now. It takes little resources to arouse interest in people, and knowing that waiting for the people in charge of reviewing educational curriculum to add cryptocurrency to academics may mean waiting for a long time, we can start today to play our part before the government.

It is a good thing to read that even people with such strong religious orientation and aged background can still be open to learning and adopting bitcoin. It shows that for other people who are hiding behind religious reasons and being hostile towards bitcoin and give the excuse of their age are just looking for excuses. This story defeats the ideology that religious people are not accomodating to new ideas and innovations.

Bayern Munich 5 - 0  Freiburg
Good result for Bayern once again, Happy to see that Sadio Mane is one of the people with his name on the scoresheet with a very well comfortably finished goal. Leroy Sane is on fire this season, such great form and i hope that injuries don't keep him from continuing to play. His strike for Bayern reminded us of the likes some Legends for the club like Robben who use to score similar goals in those days from such distance.

Would you be influenced by your favourite Celebrity who you know gambles and one day happens to post the games he played, would you be influenced to play the same game?

I am bringing up this because a popular Canadian musician Drake posted the games he played today on Stake,


Many of his fans who are into gambling as well, may have played same game without thinking. As it turns out, the game did not go as predicted for him and his bet lost.

Liverpool vs Manchester City
Arsenal fans will be definitely depending on Liverpool right now to either hold Manchester city to a draw or better still get all three points. both teams have played fairly balanced football in this first half hopefully in the second half of season goals but I prefer the goals to come from Liverpool and not Manchester city.

We (arsenal) did well to soak up the pressure from Leeds United in the second half, they played so well and had so many chances in front of our goal. when the game started and I saw the way Rodrigo was playing I thought maybe he will cause a problem for about line, but the opposite happened and his mistake gave us the goal. with the introduction of Patrick bamford for Rodrigo in the second half Leeds played much better and were more threatening with those burst run through our defence. We were lucky that they missed a penalty and that the second penalty that was given was later annulled.
2048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: October 16, 2022, 01:43:41 PM
does anyone know why the arsenal match has not been played?
According to reports from the commentators, they are experiencing technical failure caused by power outage in the stadium so it has forced the referee to suspend the game for the now till they can get the VAR and goal line technology back up and running. This extra delay may have a toll on the players who may become nervous after having played just a few minutes. We waiting for kick off.

For the Aston villa Chelsea game Chelsea have been very lucky so far scoring with their first chance and opportunity but in truth this first half have been clearly dominated by Aston villa who have had more opportunities but Chelsea have been saved a couple of times by their goalkeeper Kepa and the Goal post.

Tottenham must give an impressive performance against Everton...
Tottenham's performance today totally outclassed Everton who did not have so many attempts on goal both in the first and second half. Conte's tactical change that saw Bissouma introduced after Richarlison's injury improved Tottenham's play and created the opportunity for the two goals that they scored. More problems now for Frank lampard's side who I think were very unresponsive in the game and failed to make changes to their play and tactics even after Tottenham made changes to theirs with Bissouma's introduction where they switched their formation to 3-5-2, and even after observing that the tactics which they entered into the game with was not given them the required or expected result.

Tottenham are currently enjoying their best start to the season under Conte, their supporters will be delighted with their current position on the EPL table.
2050  Economy / Economics / Re: Agriculture HODL on: October 15, 2022, 03:51:52 PM
If food shortages and price inflation hit. Agricultural HODL could become a viable business strategy.

Similar to being an early investor in bitcoin. Getting in early on agriculture HODL could be a good investment.
There is wisdom in this because even apart from inflation, a lot of other factors are contributing to food shortages including natural occurring disasters. Recently there is heavy flooding in my country and a lot of farm lands have been affected, this in the long run means that we are expecting food shortage if care is not taken. You can imagine the position that people who have stored up food produce are right now which is at an advantage and to sell at any price which they deem fit. Investment in agriculture is something to really consider especially right now. There is this popular Real Estate saying that I would like to relate to agriculture, "The best time to invest in agriculture was yesterday, the next best time is today for the future".
2051  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would you name your child after a crypto?? on: October 15, 2022, 03:31:27 PM
I don't mean to sound superstitious but where I'm from we believe that names have power and have an influence on how our children will act so we always try to give our children very good names. Currently because of the very unpredictable nature of any cryptocurrency, I wouldn't consider giving my child a name after a cryptocurrency yet, I would not want my child exhibiting and unpredictable behavior.

Say in the future when bitcoin has achieved stability, the name can be considered then but not currently.
2052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: October 15, 2022, 03:21:01 PM
Glad to see the blues frontline players intact with their rated form. Chelsea are getting better to shape after the former Brighton coach took over. Mason Mount recording 3 assists in his last 2 games while Pierre Aubameyang having score 3 goals in his last 3 games for the club. Remarkable stats set by the duo and Graham Potter unbeaten track continue and I don't see him in a hurry to lose a game presently.
No doubt Chelsea has been doing well since Graham Potter start at the club. they have played more like the Chelsea we used to know showing resilience. but currently the biggest challenge for the coach and Chelsea will be how to adjust to play without Reece James who most likely will be out for a while due to the injury he picked up during the Milan game , Fonfana out as well and then even Mason Mount that you mentioned may not play in full form because of the Issue with his thighs that prompted him to go for a scan. I didn't even mention Kante. Big concerns for the club.
2053  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can you choose cryptocurrency as full time job? on: October 15, 2022, 02:03:24 PM
can you choose crypto as full time corporate job?
The concept of a full time job these days that takes up all your time is highly discouraged even if it involves cryptocurrency. The ideal is having multiple sources of income to support your lifestyle and so as not to be so affected if one is affected.

I'm not really sure how to answer this but yes you can example like working on exchange or writing some blog or making video about crypto, The other way was working as Blockchain developer on some sector like Oil, Market, Food, etc and also being a lawyer or even marketing on some blockchain-based company
These are regular jobs that you have described having a fixed agreed sum as payment for your service either monthly, weekly or even daily. It may not be affected by the uncertainties of the market. It is different from when you choose to trade crypto as a full time job on your own.

With an impressive two goals to seal the victory for Brentford, Ivan Toney has helped his team Brentford move up very close to their today's opponent Brighton in the Premier League table to cover up for their previous match's poor performance against Newcastle United last week.
Ivan Toney should be called up to the national team to represent England in the world cup because he has been exceptional in front of goal this season for Brentford. He has a 100% penalty record and then the technique he showed in converting that first assist into a goal shows that he has the quality to compete with Harry Kane or support him in the world cup. The Brentford goalkeeper Raya also deserved some commendation, he made some pretty good saves. Brighton played well, but Brentford defended well and looked more dangerous going to goal...good game generally, I enjoyed it.

ASUU DON CALL OFF ITS STRIKE
The academic staff union of universities has bowed to pressure, obey court order and suspended its 8 months strike. From the official release from ASUU, e dey clear say FG never settle them but court order don force them to suspend the strike.
The federal government used the judiciary arm of government to bully them back to work, if they had not complied that would have been a breach of court and they would have been arrested as criminals. ASUU merely suspended the strike but the issue they have for the federal government has not yet been resolved. What this means for every Nigerian students is that the possibility  of a strike has not been eliminated and that they may go back home soon if the federal government do not quickly comply.

I think he is an excellent goalkeeper. Throughout the matches, he put in an incredible performance. A 1-0 loss to Manchester United was due to Francis Uzoho's 11 saves and one goal conceded in the 93rd minute. The man of the match award was given to him even though his team lost. It was a performance that even Ronaldo was captivated by.
Manchester united had over 30 shots in the game before they were able to pass Uzoho who said he had praying for that opportunity. He definitely made an impression on everyone, His coach, Manchester United coach ten Hag, and all players and spectators. If his team don't turn him to their first choice keeper, I think it will not be long before another team maybe one in a better and more competitive league will come for him. I hope it does happen that way for him, because a goalkeeper like that who can be the difference deserves a better team. Had Mctominay not gotten a goal, it would have been a perfect game for him.

If we had an exact idea of what we can do to make the price of bitcoin go up quickly, I am sure we will be doing it already.
Time, just be patient.
True! and even when bitcoin starts going up...don't get too comfortable thinking that it will never go back down again. There will always be upward and downward movement until somehow the price becomes stable. We all just have to be patient and dedicated to bitcoins, time is just all it will take.

In the last 10 years the history of bitcoin a lot has definitely happened. A lot of crypto made millionaires have emerged from the cryptocurrency environment while a lot of people who were millionaires from crypto currently are no longer millionaires all as a result of the choices they made. Fact is in the next 10 years a lot will also happen in this cryptocurrency space, new millionaires will emerge while some people who are currently millionaires will no longer be millionaires by then, the position we will be is dependent on the decisions that will make today and consecutively before that time. Make good decisions, acquire more cryptocurrency and keep Hodling for as long as you can.

I don't know how long Omonia can resist, but Manchester United are playing well so far... Although halfway through the first half, they've taken 12 shots...
Marcus rashford has been clinical today hitting the target a couple of times but being denied by the Nigerian goalkeeper Uzoho who has replaced the first team keeper of the team. He has been the difference in this game and has stopped Manchester United from entering into the second half with any goal.
Omonia had like two good chances to be ahead but because of some stingy play they couldn't utilise the opportunity they had which might be the best one they will have in this game.

This Arsenal team is slowly becoming a strong team. A win like that with no convincing performance is a sure way to greatness.
We should have been in the champions League but were denied by Tottenham Hotspur. Just as we are showing I expect us to prove to everyone that we are bigger than this Europa League and deserve a chance next season in the champions League. We have eleven wins out of twelve games in all competition, that's a good record for Arterta.
