Finally my robotics studio works

i downloaded microsoft robotics studio 1.5 since last year, and suprisingly i couldn't even run a simple Hello project with it, it was given me a xml schema validation error, and i called on the help of every body i knew to help solve it, we were not able to fix it.

when the new version was released,i downloaded the express edition with the hope that it will be better this time, "na lie", it didn't work.

But thanks to God,without doing anything i finally got it to work yesterday after 3 installations and uninstallations. i don't know if it was a bug or not, but i'm sure glad it's working.

Now i can do something..

You know you are addicted to coffee when...

You are employee of the month at the local coffee house and you don't even work there. Your eyes stay open when you sneeze, you cherw on other people's finger nails,You can type sixty words per minute with your feet, you can jump start your car without cables. You don't sweat, you percolate.You've worn out the handle of your favorite coffee mug.

You walk twenty miles on your treadmill, before you realize it's not hooked up. you're so wired you pick up radio signals. your birthday is a ntaional holiday in brazi. you go to sleep just so you can wake up and smell the coffee. you namme your rats, "cream" and 'sugar'. your lips are permanently stuck in the sipping position, you have a picture of your coffee mug on your coffe mug.

you don't tan,you roast.you don't get mad, you get steamed .your cofee mug is insured by IGI insurance, you introduce your spouse as your coffee mate, you think CPR stands for coffee provides resusciation, you ski uphill,you get a speeding ticket even when you r parked. you haven't blinked since your last lunar eclipse, you just completed another sweater and you don't even know how to knit.

The Bible says "taste and see that the Lord is good".Here's an idea why not turn your coffee break into a time with God. carry a scripture with you. meditate while you sip, talk to God while you savor. doing this would transform your life.

How to make your first million naira…fast

Stop…
So you still think there’s a thing like fast money. I thought by now you will have been staying clear of any get rich scheme.They don’t ever seem to work,anyway i am about to introduce you to a very sure way of making quick money fast.

SING NONSENSE.Yes, you heard right, Sing, especially nonsense. Take a look around you.People are making a lot of money from singing, and guess what you don’t have to have anything to say. it’s amazing, you can sing gibberish,(e.g Konga) or you can just take a word and repeat it all over again(e.g Alhaji(who in d world sang that song) or you can abuse people(e.g Ori e foka si be(Your head scatter) by DJ Zeez), the list is endless, if they can do it, then you can too. of course ,make sure you have a catchy phrase,that they will use to identify you,(e.g Koko), and use nice beats preferably stolen from a mix of American music and indian music(nobody will know its stolen and you are sure it will sell,it already sold in the US).
If you succed in doing all this,i can assure you the only person who can stop you from making that million is K**** and D-*.
So don’t let me catch you complaining that you don’t have money, you are your own future.

Furgeson and the unified theory

This is from one of my part two notes, it was hilarious so i thought i would share it with every body.

In d beginning there was aristotle
and objects at rest tended to remain at rest
and objects in motion tended to come to rest
and God saw that it was boring,
although very restful.

Then God created Newton
and objects at rest tended to remain at rest
and objects in motion tended to remain in motion
and energy was conserved and momentum was conserved
and matter was conserved
and God saw that it was conservative.

Then God created Einstein
and everything was relative
and fast things became short
and straight things became curved
and the universe was filled with inertial frames
and God saw that it was relatively General
but some of it was especially relative.

Then God created Bohr
and there was the principle
and the principle was quantum
and all things were quantified
but some things were still relative
and God saw that it was confusing.

Then God was going to create Furgeson
and Furgeson would have unified
and he would have fielded a theory
and all would have been one
but it was the seventh day
and God rested
….and objects at rest tended to remain at rest
