ibibo Yet Again Launches A Musical Initiative – Is Music The New Tool
2009-09-01 14:44:00 We’ve all heard about music being the finest drug and that we should stick to it no matter what. The era of musical revolution begun right during The Great Depression, 1929 when employment was available in sections like folk and Gospel music. Lyrics of such songs included, for instance the story of an average American worker affected by the whole economic downturn. But, did you know that there was a special genre called ‘Recession Music’? A stanza for instance – There once was a time when everything was cheap, But now prices nearly puts a man to sleep.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INITIATIVE IN CHESS
2008-04-30 05:28:00 In chess, there are two basic principles that must be respected:1.Without blunders, only the attacker can win the game. A game is always won by an attack. As long as your opponent is attacking you are occupied by parrying that attack. 2.Only the player with the initiative can successfully attack! The player that does not have the initiative can often bring forth a sortie, but in order to gin up a successful attack the player must have the initiative.Couple this thinking with the fact that white has an initiative by virtue of the first move. Thus, white is favored to win. He will win if he can hold the initiative. He can lose if he loses the initiative. In many games the initiative changes hands, sometimes it changes often: perhaps because it is not respected; or because both players value it and fight for it.Statistically, White wins 54% of games decided, Black wins 46% of those games. It seems clear that White has an 8% advantage due to the first move! This is the initia...

The reality is that many Nigerians, including the lettered ones, are still far from being computer literate. However, the Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Chief Ernest Ndukwe, has achieved feats through his telecommunication revolution specifically between February 2000 and December 2007 when the nation’s subscriber base grew from 0.4 million to 42 million. The dominance of ICT-induced activities in the international community, which has become a global trend, will render every educated person and professional that are not ICT compliant illiterate.Ndukwe had no better f...
