Crazy Thinking

Chronicled by Afronuts @ Thursday, July 17, 2008

When you think out of the box, you come up with real interesting stuff. 

People who think out of the box usually revolutionize things and give us another view of things like we've never seen them before. Its called creativity. But not all ideas are easily acceptable, yet no idea is totally useless. Check out these out-of-the-box ideas and creations...





A door handle that's friendly...get a handshake as you come in.





Okay...now this idea is waay crazy! A door handle made to look like shit...the idea was to give the rest room an identity that makes it easy for visistors to locate...Ha!





It looks like someone chopped off that cable but actually that's a 2 Gig USB flash storage drive! Interesting.





For the cooks and bakers in the house, you dont need to use scales anymore. This scale-spoon does just that for you. so you can be sure of your measurements.





The Japanese are so wierd! Designer sanitary pads? To cheer the women up when they're flying the red flag?







Two in one shoes. A good way to save you the hassles of spending money on two shoes.







My oh my! Breast Puddings from Japan! The Japenese are definitely crazy. What wierd way to get creative with edibles.

Lillian Ladele - A Shining Example

Chronicled by Afronuts @ Monday, July 14, 2008

Its amazing how in a world that's been proliferated and corrupted with all manner of abominations against nature and what is proper, you still have people who maintain not just thier integrity but their belief ib that which is right.

Such is the story of Lillian Ladele the Christian registrar who refused to carry out gay weddings in the UK. Lillian was harassed and discriminated against after she refused to carry out same-sex civil partnership ceremonies yet she doggedly stood her ground and refused to violate the act of abomination against God's laws which man has taken and legalised.





Lillian's act has generated so much controversy that is reminiscent of the days of the famous black american lady, Rosa Parks who refused to seat in a segregated area in a bus during the segregationist periods of the 60's.
She also reminds me of strong women such as Dora Akinyuli and Chris Anyanwu who braved the odds when it seemed all around them was against them.

Lillian's doggegness paid off when she won the courtbattle over this case. The telegraph news described her victory as 'a landmark discrimination battle'.  





This ordinary woman has demonstrated the extra-ordinary by just standing for what she believes and God's laws.  Its amazing how doing the right thing can end up turning you into a controversy celebrity. I have to say I'm happy she stood her ground and I'm also proud for the fact that she's a Nigerian. Who says we can make waves around the globe?

Lillians story proves a number of things:

1. No matter where you are, you can make a difference and win as long as you stand your ground.
   
2. When what you stand for is what God stands for, you will always win in the end.
   
3. Your steadfastness will cause others to wake up from their slumber and take a stand
   

I guess Romans 12:2 is a very relevant scripture in this case.

What will your kid(s) be doing?

Some time back in march I wrote entries about what we expose our kids to (Click here and here to view them). I was shocked one day when I received a set of paparazzied pictures circulating the net showing how profound the effect of bad stuff on Tv and among careless adults can affect a kid. Some of you may have seen this pictures in your mail but just in case you haven't, take a look at them. They are 4 year olds and they were caught by a surveillance camera...




























Isn't  it Alarming?

Watermelon Does the Same Work As Viagra?

Chronicled by Afronuts @ Wednesday, July 09, 2008

 I guess we are too pre-occupied on junk and artificial food that we've forgotten the natural ones which can actually save our lives from different ailments. Its amazing the things fruits and veggies do for us and yet we take them for granted. I won't be surprised if the cure for terrible diseases such as AIDS comes from a simple neglected and forgotten plant. I came across this interesting piece on Watermelon recently.


A cool, juicy watermelon is a refreshing fruit for many. However, watermelons may have the same effect as Viagra, a drug used to treat erectile dysfunction.



Watermelons have an ingredient called citrulline that could trigger the production of a compound that relaxes the body’s blood vessels, which is also what happens when a man takes Viagra.

Scientists in Texas say that citrulline reacts with the body’s enzymes when consumed in large quantities and is then changed to arginine, an amino acid that benefits the heart and circulatory systems.

"Arginine boosts nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, the same basic effect that Viagra has, to treat erectile dysfunction and maybe even prevent it," said Bhimu Patil, a researcher and director of Texas A&M's Fruit and Vegetable Improvement Center. "Watermelon may not be as organ-specific as Viagra, but it's a great way to relax blood vessels without any drug side effects."

However, some researchers say that anyone taking Viagra shouldn’t expect the same results from watermelon.


Incredible isn't it? Read more about it here

Well, what can I say? It looks unbelievable that a simple watermelon might be Nature's viagra.
Years ago, a Nigerian Doctor claimed he cured AIDS with herbs but the scientific world discredited it on some unclear grounds. Is it because it did not involve chemicals or because an african made such discovery?

I believe its not impossible for the cure to many of our ailments to be found in nature's edibles surrounding us.
Here's a video that showcases some astonishing truths we never knew, no thanks to junk food and all that artificial crap that we fill ourselves with. 



What can I say? Lets eat more of Nature's edibles and stay alive and healthier!
