Talebearing24- Movement In MR NIGER DAC


M that stands for movement in the acronym ‘’MR NIGER DAC’’ is vividly enunciated below. Movement is defined as the ability of a living being to move from one place to another or it is a change in position of a living thing. This acronym is specifically for living-organisms not non-living entities. It is the only characteristic that conspicuously distinguishes plant from animal. The type of movement we have in animal is what we called locomotion because it requires the use of one or more locomotory organs such as limbs/legs (in man), fins(in fishes), wings(in birds) etc. to move the whole body(Complete movement) unlike plants that move with their branches, leaves and the likes but cannot shift their stems/shoots from one place to another by themselves (Partial movement). There are some organisms that are plant-like and animal-like meaning that they are plants as well as animals. They have the characteristics of plants and the locomotory organ as in the case of animal. For instance, Euglena viridis has flagella for locomotion. Chlamydomonas also has flagella; Amoeba has pseudopodia for locomotion and so on. The reasons why organisms move are very numerous. Is it for reproduction,protection, food, mating, pleasure, help to mention a few? Why does movement concern man? If you look at all these reasons why organisms move, you will see that man also shares the same reasons for his movement with other living organisms. If your movement does not have a purpose, definitely the end thereof will not bring forth something meaningful. Who do you move with? Show me your friend and I will tell you who you are! The calibre of people you move with also plays a vital role in your character, growth and success. Check yourself, if you need to retract from your movement of no good result, do so before it is too late. Your movement determines your success. Change your ways today and you will see that sky is just the beginning into the journey of success. When do you move? You have to be cautious of the time of your movement in order to achieve the planned goal because everything in life has its own time. Time to eat, time to drink, time to move, time to stop, time to plant, time to harvest etc. This is very important as well. Plan your movement! He, who failed to plan, has planned to fail. Success is ours!

Talebearing24- MR NIGER DAC

Yesterday, I talked about the acronym of life"MR NIGER DAC", and this morning, I shall be telling us what each letter stands for and later how it relates to our daily lives. M in the acronym stands for Movement, R stands for respiration while N stands for Nutrition, I stands for Irritability/Sensitivity and G stands for growth. Furthermore, E stands for excretion while R stands for reproduction, D stands for death/life span/ultimate end and A stands for adaptation/adaptability, lastly, C stands for competition. These letters are coined out from the characteristics of living-things. Tomorrow, God willing, we shall be looking at these characteristics one after the other in details. Until then, keep your fingers crossed!

Talebearing24- Causes of Cancer and How it can be averted

CAUSES OF CANCER AND HOW IT CAN BE AVERTED
There are three major ways by which our health can be impaired;
* Through what we eat
* Through what we drink
* Through what we expose our body to
THROUGH WHAT WE DRINK
Some do not know that it is not advisable to drink a bottled water or sachet water that had been kept in the car for a day or more most especially when the weather is hot because this can cause CANCER in man. How? This is done through the carcinogenic particles of the bottle or nylon that had mixed with the water as a result of the heat which the bottle or nylon had been subject to.
In the same vein, it is dangerous to use a rubber cup or container to make hot tea or pap at home or in the office because the rubber cup can produce its particles into the hot food or drink that can cause cancer in man.
In addition, it is advisable not to be over-dependent on canned food or bottled drink because some chemicals used as preservatives are not body-friendly. Some react with the container in the presence of moisture to cause cancer in man when consumed.
THROUGH WHAT WE EXPOSE OUR BODY TO
Also, it is disastrous to over-expose our ear to long calls in the process of communication with our phones especially those that make night calls because one of the components of the phone panel is lead, Pb as an element which is liable to cause cancer in man. How? When making or receiving calls, heat will be produced in the phone panel, the longer the call the greater the quantity of heat that will be produced and vice versa thereby causing electromagnetic radiation that is the emission of the Lead particles that can cause cancer in man. For a long call, it is advisable to use earpiece (hand-on) while receiving or making long calls. Left ear is the best place for making or receiving short calls of one to two minutes because it is farther from the heart compared to the distance of the right ear to the heart all in the name of preventing heart cancer.
In summary, cancer is a disease of cells of tissues to undergo uncontrolled or rapid procreation or reproduction. This cannot be possible if there is no something or substance of any form that will trigger the abnormal reproduction of the cells through our day to day activities. The emanation of cancer is not instantaneous and its outgrowth can be curbed at the early stage. It has many form, namely; ovarian cancer, skin cancer, cancer of the eye, lung cancer etc. Cancer is a cell disease meaning that wherever there is cell, cancer is probable to occur. Cell is the unit of life in man. In Biology, cell is defined as the smallest, basic and functional unit of life. No cell no life. Cells in tissue, tissues in organ, organs in system, systems in organism. Organism is man, macro-organism.

Talebearing24- What A Funny Hunting!



           Toye, Taye and Kehinde were children of the same father but of two mothers. Toye was the eldest son among them of age eighteen years. Their father was a driver and a subsistence farmer while both mothers were traders. These children used to go to farm on weekends especially Saturday when their father was out for driving. Their farm was a bit far from their dwellings so they went there by vehicles. The common vehicle on this road was tippers because of the presence of quarry in this area. Every Saturday, they would go to Tipper Park whenever their father did not go with them for free transportation because some of these drivers knew their father with them.
         After getting to the farm under no supervision, they would work for three hours on farm and went for hunting. Snails and crabs were their targets on several occasions and they would pick as many as possible especially in the rainy season. Plucking of ripe pawpaw in their farm was not left out. There was no day they would go to farm without coming home with one thing of the other. Even their friends in their neighborhood always waited for them from farm because of what they would enjoy from their return.
        One day, after work on farm as usual they tried all they could to pick snails and crabs but no way because that was towards the dry season. They decided to go fishing by using the hook and line they had kept for so long on farm. Taye searched for bait they would use and he was able to get few being in the dry season. They started fishing and small fishes were being caught. The day was going dark little by little. All of

Talebearing24- What A Beautiful Change in Ronald's Life!



                Once upon a time, Ronald was very troublesome and playful. Anytime he was sent on an errand, he would go his way, playing football from one street to the other. He would never come home until Ten O'clock or after. Beating little children in his neighborhood was very common thereby reporting his notorious attitudes from different quarters to his parents. His parents were tired of these non-profitable and barbaric characters of him.
               One day, his parents went to his school to report him and seek for their advice. On getting there, they were very flabbergasted with what they met on ground because they had been waiting for them to come and hear what their son had done in the school. His teacher brought the record of his misdeeds. He didn't always stay in the class. Whenever, he was in the class, he would cause trouble and confusion. His class teacher studied him very well and devised a mechanism of counseling which later proved futile thereby adopting punishment as the last resort. Ronald could not stay for five hours in the class without serving three-hour punishment.
              With all these reports, Ronald’s parents were very unhappy and humbly asked the Principal and his teacher on what to do. Ronald was in Senior Secondary School 1 then and his teacher advised his parents to seat him down and ask him what he wanted to do. After making his choice, took him to their religious leader

Talebearing24- Enjoyment in Brilliance!



           Eze's school days were very interesting! Going by the saying "there is love in sharing", Eze gave chances to his intimate friends to peep into his work during tests and examinations. Although he knew that what he was doing was wrong and severally he was removed from their midst into another seat where he would not be disturbed. His friends would not be happy with his removal but there was nothing they could do.
         Much attention was placed on Eze in the class and his female classmates started inviting him to their rooms for tutorials. Eze would eat in their rooms and teach them some difficult topics or exercises they found tedious in the class. Eze could count the number of days he cooked food in school. Because of this, he was appointed the class Representative and had some responsibilities at his shoulder. He did excellently well on this post and he was advised to go for Student Union appointment but he turned down the advice because he

Talebearing24- A Friend Fell From A Tall Tree



           A childhood friend of mine in my neighborhood called Kingley going to the same school and attending the same church with me could not forget a day he fell from a mango tree not too far from my dwelling. Kingsley and I used to go to school together in the morning and waited for each other after closing hour so that we could come home together being the fact that we were living in the same neighborhood and our parents because of us were also friends.
          I could remember vividly we were in Senior Secondary School 1 then when we noticed that there was a tall mango tree not far from my house. Then was the season of mango, apart from the mango trees that we used to visit after school hour to pluck the ripe ones, we also paid visit to the nearby ones. Sometimes, we went to pluck ripe mango on our way home and ate all so that we would not be suspicious and beaten. This did not affect our house chores even my friend used to hawk after school hour while I would wash dirty plates we used in the morning when rushing to school. This was how we were plucking the ripe mangoes around without the consent of our parents.
          One day, I did not go to school because I was ill but Kingsley went and on his way home, he branched at the mango tree not too far from my house to pluck the ripe mangoes. On getting there, he saw three ripe mangoes at the top of the trees, he continuously threw sticks to them but he could not get them, then he decided to climb this tree and found his way to the top of the tree where these ripe mangoes were hung not knowing that what was good was not meant for a single person. When he got there, he met a snake and he was seriously scared therefore rushing down from the tree but because he was frightened, one of his hands missed the tree and he fell. When he got down, he even thought he was dead because the tree branches with the leaves beat him mercilessly on his way down but he was able to walk again with his eyes red and his school uniform dirty and torn.
I was outside the house when he was coming from this mango tree and narrated his ordeal. What a pity!
