One hot day a crow became very thirsty. He flew about in search of water. But he did not get water. He was going to die for want of water.

At last he saw a pitcher. He at once flew to it with great delight. But there was very little water at the bottom of the pitcher. The water was so low that the crow could not drink it.

Then the crow tried to break the pitcher, but he could not. He tried again and again to overturn the pitcher, but he failed.

He looked around and saw some pebbles lying nearby. He took the pebbles one by one and dropped them into the pitcher. The water reached the neck of the pitcher. The crow drank water to his heart’s content and flew away.

HOW TO MAKE LIQUID AIR FRESHENER (…best DIY formulations ever) If you’ve ever lived close to a land fill, you can probably tell the volume of rain about to fall just from the poignant moving air that hovers around the land fill and it’s environs. The neighbourhood smells really bad, stale and un -fresh. On the other hand, if you have been to a park to relax especially when the tree flowers are in their blooming season, you might be greeted to a cozy array of fragrances. I particularly love the strong scent of the Frangipani flower. Odours are quite powerful and they sure do much work than science admits currently. In fact, in addition to other senses, humans have survived through the ages by relying on the sense of smell. The senses collect loads of information the brain then processes. Without them, the brain is just an intelligent machine with high potential yet without the necessary external connections, it is useless. We associate odour with everything – the good, th

WHY YOU MAY NEVER BE EMPLOYABLE UNTIL...

by Adedoyin Shobo …But what did the people that say you are not employable expect? The cold war between the Soviet Union and America lasted for decades and was based on a myriad of issues from the Arts, economic prosperity to Science. It was the war of the titans indeed, the who's who countries stood in the battlefield...in the gladiator’s coliseum of the mind. The result was the explosion in the technological advancement today from rocket science to smart phone science… The question of education is a quest for survival. It is a quest of how-much-do-you-know-before-you-run-out-of-your-precious-life...lines. It is the flint that forges the infrastructure that makes life a little more meaningful and interesting. I highlighted below - a montage of sanctimonious words from the bible. It pontificates in the curious voice of a child and the wisdom of a grey - bearded geriatric that has seen-it-all. “Be ye diligent in all things...one day you will seats with Kings and the

Traditional medicine (TM) or native medicine is an essential aspect of the rich cultural heritage across the globe that has survived many generations, focusing on the indigenous way of preventing, diagnosing and managing diseases. Amongst the most widely known and globally practiced forms of native medicine are: Ayurveda; Unani; Tibetan medicine; Traditional Chinese Medicine and African Traditional Medicine. In Africa, native medicine arguably accounts for up to 80% of the health care delivery according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). These, therefore underscores the global relevance and increasing recognition of traditional medicine as a veritable tool in addressing Man’s health needs. In a bid to accommodate the worldwide diversity of cultures and their indigenous mode of traditional medicine practices, the World Health Organization (WHO) defined traditional medicine as: “the sum total of all the knowledge, skills, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and expe
