Honourable Patrick Obahiagbon on an interview with Punch Newspaper..

I can't just help than to deviate a little from the scientific objectives of this blog.Guess you will enjoy it when you read through.

Punch ­- Did you write exams in school in these big words?

Hourable- I used such words very-very freely in my exams both at the
secondary school and in my university and little wonder I had
the misfortune of my English results being seized intermittently in my O’ Levels.
WAEC released my results for the other subjects and withheld my English result. This happened for
about three years. Twice, I passed the University Matriculation Examination but I
could not proceed to the University because of my English results that...
were not released. At
the end of the day, it was released after the third attempt.

Network to give away chargers to customers using EE

It may interest you If Techno giant is giving out power bank freely to customers when they buy any of their smartphones.So,why do I bothered myself paying extra £20 fee to revive my phone? It seems confusing though,belieeve me,I would prefer to purchase a spare battery,fix it on my phone within three seconds and continue my business conversation.I understand quite alright that most smartphones get drained easily when you need it most as a result of series of activities running on them such as video,music, YouTube and social activities.Trust me,£20 fee is a whole lot.

Eating fast food after a workout may be just as beneficial

I want to believe that prone to ignorance, some of my friends have stopped eating fast food but this article might be of great benefit to those who have long left their favourite fast food for something else. According to a report from dailymail.co.uk, eating fast food is not actually an issue for those that eat fast food and exercise regularly.

Researchers found that during recovery periods between periods of exercise, it didn’t matter what food was eaten.

Performance remained the same after resting for several hours, while levels of glycogen - used by muscles as ‘fuel’ - were actually slightly higher after fast food was eaten as a recovery food.

 The research, published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, was led by University of Montana graduate student Michael Cramer.

 In the study, 11 male athletes were asked to fast for 12 hours, before a 90-minute endurance workout.

 After this, half were fed hot cakes, hash browns and orange juice, followed by a burger, fries and a Coke two hours later.

 The other group were given Gatorade, organic peanut butter and Cliff Shot Bloks, followed two hours later by Cytomax powder and PowerBar products.

 Two hours after the second meal, all participants were then ask to ride 12 miles (20km) on a stationary bike a fast as they good.

 Each meal eaten by the participants was roughly equal in calories, carbohydrates and protein - although the fast food had more sodium and slightly more fat.

 At various intervals, the researchers took muscule tissue samples and did blood tests, to check glycogen levels.

 After a week, the participants returned and performed the task again, this time switching their diet to the one they didn’t do last time.

 The results showed that, when performing the second exercise task, the times were about the same no matter which meal group the participants were in.

 Also, levels of glycogen across the two groups were almost the same - with the fast food group being slightly higher.

 No differences in insulin, glucose or cholesterol were found, while neither group reported any serious stomach discomfort.

 ‘These data indicate that short-term food options to initiate glycogen resynthesis can include dietary options not typically marketed as sports nutrition products such as fast food menu items,’ the researchers wrote.

 However, the researchers said that the experiment included a fairly small sample, and the long-term effects on workout recovery of eating fast food over other, healthier sources of food are not known.

Meet the most powerful British woman in the tech industry

I was once disturbed by CEO and political leaders appointing great number of women to hold some strategic positions.Truly,it does't turn out positive always but great luck if you have upto 10 in every 100 women that are productive and efficient.

Obsolete technologies that will baffle modern children

You might be wondering how time flies in terms of technology.
Many of today's teenagers have never seen or used a video tape or a floppy disc. Take a look at some gadgets which will puzzle younger people.
Composed of a thin, magnetic disc and a plastic casing, the floppy disc originally came in sizes as large as 8 inches, but soon shrunk to the more widely-known 3 1/2 inch design. Capable of holding 1.44MB of data, the floppy disc soon lost out to formats such as the 650MB compact disc, which could hold around 450 times more data.

What is your thought on this?
