|This is a discussion on A-J early position within the online poker forums, in the Tournament Poker section; In a 10-man SNG, you get dealt A-Jo UTG (or UTG +1-2), The blinds are at 25/50, you have a stack of 1100, what do
Since it's early, I'd make the same raise I'd make with AQ or AK. Chipping up early gives enough advantage to make it worth taking a shot here. If I flop an ace, I probably have the best hand. If I catch a jack to go with, most people will think I don't have AJ, and I might burn somebody else with 2-pair for their whole stack.
If somebody raises preflop, I let it go. Although this loses me a standard raise, it could pay off later when I get a better hand, and people think they can scare me off with a raise.
By opening up your early position range, people will reraise you more.
Its all too easy to think.. well thaths good when I have AA or KK
The fact is the reason people will reraise you more is that statistically you will not have it all that often. So If you open in early position with 88+ AJs+ KQs AQo Then a savy player will throw in the occasional reraise because more than half of your range cannot take a 3bet. If you call/raise here you narrow your range greatly, making postflop easier for your opponent.
Others will call you as you are OOP for the entire hand and this is probably the biggest flaw in playing more hands in EP. You play more often with no positianal advantage over others.
The reason to play tight in EP is simply because you don't have any position on anyone. HEM is a very positional orientated game. Therefore the only hands you should choose to play OOP are ones where position is not a huge factor.
i.e. bigger pairs, AK, AQs
Even when you hold AA in early position, you are less likely to make as much money from it as if you had the same hand in late position.
re: Poker & A-J early position
when the blinds are that low and no one has made a raise preflop, dont even consider folding that hand. If it always gets you into trouble, at least see a flop and if nothing good comes out of the hand, then fold. If you fold hands like AJ when the blinds are that low, what hands will you play?
Single table sng, blinds 25-50, what is that level 2 or 3?
Villain reads are very important .
If you have been sitting there thru several blind levels and you feel the table is nittish, or tight, then on occasion you can open with AJ. Don't fall in love with it tho. And unless you hit, be prepared to muck it.
And certainly don't overdo it. The trick might be that you want to convince the rest of the table that tonight is your night and you are hitting, but nobody hits 30% of their hands and the rest of the table knows this, so you can pull this off maybe 2 times per hour online, which translates to maybe twice per 10 man SnG.
But from early position you do NOT want much action with AJ, so a healthier size raise is the way to go. A good solid 4x maybe 5 even. You should consider this to be a strong Semi-Bluff, from early position, but a bluff nonetheless.
In late position with this hand, using the same notion of 'occasionally' you would reraise, but normally call.
AJ, i am limping with, from early position. And may raise only if there are nits at the table.
I have seen some real bad players, raising with A5 from UTG1, well i got position on them i raise them, or let them fall in to a higher kicker.
lesion to Stu_Ungar, Dj11..
AJ does get you in to alot of trouble
One of the main problems with AJ, is it dosent fair all that well on an A high board.
Example 1 You raise in EP with AJ. You get 3 bet.. you call.
The board is A 9 6. You c-bet. You get reraised.. how do you feel about AJ?
Example 2. You limp in early with AJ. You get raised 5BB by the button. You call. (you havent removed AA, AK, AQ from his range)
So how do you feel about AJ of the same board of A 9 6?
Well you may say .. 'OK im behind to AA AK and AQ, but Im way ahead of all other aces'
But this isnt true. Some of the low Aces will have made 2pair.
So you are behind AA AK AQ +4 Ax hands that made 2 pair.
You tie with AJ
There are 13 Ace hands.
On the flop you are behind 5, tie with 1 and beat 7 of them
On the turn you are behind 6, tie with 1 and beat only 6 of them.
By the river, you are behind 7 of them, tie with one and beat only 5 of them.
So you are slightly ahead on the flop, break even on the turn and slightly behind on the river.
Now consider what people will do when you bet.
The higher Aces may call 1 bet assuming that your flop bet may be with a low ace or with air, so when a T or an 8 comes.. that could be 2 pair.
If they fold, then they did not have an ace.. so the fact that you had one is irrelivent.
If they play back at you, you are not far enough ahaead of their Ace range (all aces preflop.. but AK,AQ,AJ and maybe AT plus 2 pair Aces).
Infact once the betting starts, there is only one hand that you beat, an unpaired AT.. and that will probably fold if you be into it.
So in essence AJ on an A high board is really only good as a bluff catcher.
re: Poker & A-J early position
Then there is the positional disadvantage.
So from the last post, AJ isnt all that good on an A high board.
So lets see it played in and out of position.
You bet the flop, you get called. If you check the turn, and your opponent bets, you have to fold. If it wasnt worth a turn bet then its not worth a turn call because there may well be a river bet to call too.
So you are forced to bet into the turn, to see if your hand is good or not. Your opponent has a positional advantage over you. If he has nothing, he can fold, having not placed money in on the turn. If he has a good ace, he calls.
You are left in a difficult situation, if you bet the river and he calls, you know you are beat. If you check, you cannot call a river bet.
Its difficult to see a showdown with a hand you don't believe is great.
In position.
You hold AJ
The flop is bet, you call.. its AJ but its too good to fold to just one bet.
The turn is checked. You sense weakness!!!
The turn is bet.. Well you haven't put all that much in the pot yet and you have infomation about your opponents hand. Does he play solid?? fold.. is he a loose monkey.. maybe call.
The positional advantage is huge!!
I don't really like playing A J from early position because it can get you in big trouble. If it's suited I would limp or raise 3xBB and hope to take down the blinds, if it's offsuit i'll limp or fold. If i'm the small stack under 15BB I will commit my self w/ half my stack or an all in. But I normally fold A J off, and bet w/ A J suit and hope to catch a flush draw.
Can only second what stu and dj11 have said, excellent posts from stu imo again
As Dorkus would say, its not terrrrible raising or folding or its not a crimeee to raise or fold but calling would be the worst thing you could possibly do. Haha I do learn something from those open hand videos.
My reasoning is this. With 20 something BB this is not a bad time to pick up a blind and a half. Just be ready to let this hand go if someone 3 bets. If you fold, that leaves you with about 18BB and you wait for a hand to shove. However this is also assuming the blinds arent about to rise soon. 9BB might not give you much time for the right shoving hand. Im guessing half the time you take it preflop uncontested (is this a valid guestimate based on level and blinds Stu?). If it is that is good enough for me because I am disciplined enough to lay down anything not tptk.
Thanks for the sentiment behind your intended lesson, but I'll stick with what I said. All things considered, I see more advantage in playing that hand, in that position, at that point in the tournament the way I said; than I see disadvantage in it.
I think the same can be said for tournament strategy.... AJ killed me in a MTT well playing it in early position, i met AK... Had the best hand till i got called on my all-in 2 pair lost to a srt8, Q on the river.....
Does that help, point out why.
re: Poker & A-J early position
Too me it is an easy fold early in full table sng playing from UTG. With 9 people left to act behind you, you may end up seeing 3 or 4 people in the pot come the flop. I dont want to play this hand against multiple opponentsas my odds drop too much. Later in the tourney, I would open with a raise as most of the loose donkeys are gone by then
Am i the only one who gets called with crap, when i am holding AJ????
Well looking at PT3 data, i have won with AJs 50.00%, with AJ OS 60.00%...
But thats a small number, are the games i have been playing on stars...
And on UB it is higher.
EDIT: i guess it, is in how you play them.

In the 90's I paid some Constitutional lawyers a lot of money to tell me if there was ANY path where Texas could secede. There is no path and all the "rights" the secessionists are claiming were given up at the end of the Civil War.
Perry is just pandering and bordering on treason.
That is incorrect and since you posted the Texas-v-White case (which wasn't about secession) then you should know that.
You seem to want to perpetuate the idea that the racists are pushing.
Get your money back you were had.
(this makes the Perrydactyls wild--no mention of Ron Paul driving Perry's numbers down)
Q: Didnt the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Texas v. White prove that secession is unconstitutional? [BACK TO TOP]
A: No. For space considerations, here are the relevant portions of the Supreme Court's decision in Texas v. White:
"When Texas became one of the United States, she entered into an indissoluble relation. The union between Texas and the other States was as complete, as perpetual, and as indissoluble as the union between the original States. There was no place for reconsideration or revocation, except through revolution or through consent of the States.
"...The obligations of the State, as a member of the Union ...remained perfect and unimpaired. ...the State did not cease to be a State, nor her citizens to be citizens of the Union.
"...Our conclusion therefore is, that Texas continued to be a State, and a State of the Union."
Texas v. White, 74 U.S. 700, 703 (1868)
It is noteworthy that two years after that decision, President Grant signed an act entitling Texas to U.S. Congressional representation, readmitting Texas to the Union.
What's wrong with this picture? Either the Supreme Court was wrong in claiming Texas never actually left the Union (they were see below), or the Executive (President Grant) was wrong in "readmitting" a state that, according to the Supreme Court, had never left. Both can't be logically or legally true.
To be clear: Within a two year period, two branches of the same government took action with regard to Texas on the basis of two mutually exclusive positions one, a judicially contrived "interpretation" of the US Constitution, argued essentially from silence, and the other a practical attempt to remedy the historical fact that Texas had indeed left the Union, the very evidence for which was that Texas had recently met the demands imposed by the same federal government as prerequisite conditions for readmission. If the Supreme Court was right, then the very notion of prerequisites for readmission would have been moot a state cannot logically be readmitted if it never left in the first place.
This gross logical and legal inconsistency remains unanswered and unresolved to this day.
Now to the Supreme Court decision in itself...
The Court, led by Chief Justice Salmon Chase (a Lincoln cabinet member and leading Union figure during the war against the South) pretended to be analyzing the case through the lens of the Constitution, yet not a single element of their logic or line of reasoning came directly from the Constitution precisely because the Constitution is wholly silent on whether the voluntary association of a plurality of states into a union may be altered by the similarly voluntary withdrawal of one or more states.
It's no secret that more than once there had been previous rumblings about secession among many U.S. states (and not just in the South), long before the South seceded. These rumblings met with no preemptive quashing of the notion from a "constitutional" argument, precisely because there was (and is) no constitutional basis for either allowing or prohibiting secession.
An objective reading of the relevant portions of the White decision reveals that it is largely arbitrary, contrived, and crafted to suit the agenda which it served: presumably (but unconstitutionally) to award to the U.S. federal government, under color of law, sovereignty over the states, essentially nullifying their right to self-determination and self-rule, as recognized in the Declaration of Independence, as well as the current Texas Constitution (which stands unchallenged by the federal government).
Where the Constitution does speak to the issue of powers, they resolve in favor of the states unless expressly granted to the federal government or denied to the states. No power to prevent or reverse secession is granted to the federal government, and the power to secede is not specifically denied to the states; therefore that power is retained by the states, as guaranteed by the 10th Amendment.
The Texas v. White case is often trotted out to silence secessionist sentiment, but on close and contextual examination, it actually exposes the unconstitutional, despotic, and tyrannical agenda that presumes to award the federal government, under color of law, sovereignty over the people and the states.

When it comes to Mexican food I confess to being a complete addict. The cuisine from the south of the country is as far away from your average Tex-Mex fare as you can get. From the wonderful chocolate-chilli concoction known as mole, to the throat-burning, eye-watering habanero chillies, this part of Mexico is full of culinary treats for the brave of palate and adventurous at heart.
Grasshoppers might seem something of an acquired taste, but in the state of Oaxaca, these crunchy critters are a delicacy when toasted with garlic, lemon juice and chillies, so who am I to turn them down without at least nibbling a few? If washed down with the local firewater mezcal, tequila's wicked grandad, even small insects can become a tasty option. At least until I discover the famed worm at the bottom of my glass, nicely pickled. Would I perhaps be safer with another well-known Oaxacan brew – coffee? No, it turns out this is also drunk with a generous dose of mezcal. To spare my liver I head towards Mexico's southernmost state, on the border with Guatemala: Chiapas.
San Cristóbal de las Casas is one of Mexico's quaintest and prettiest cities, as well as one of its coldest, thanks to its highland location. It's a great place to settle down for a while and kick back. Food is nice and simple in Chiapas; corn tortillas, frijol beans, abundant fruit and vegetables, hearty stews and warming tamales – steamed corn dough often stuffed with meat and wrapped in corn husks. In the small village of Zinacantán, a short drive from San Cristóbal, I suddenly find myself invited to share a meal with a Tzotzil family, one of the many indigenous groups in the state. Doña Magdalena is quietly preparing blue corn tortillas on a hotplate over an open fire, passing them to me piping hot, indicating I should help myself to fresh avocado, ground pumpkin seeds, crumbly flakes of white cheese and as much of the spicy red salsa I can muster. It is the simplest, most delicious meal of my entire journey.

The 8 Scariest Places On Earth
From US News.
The Paris Catacombs
Sixty feet beneath the city of Paris, France you'll find the Paris Catacombs, an underground crypt said to contain the exhumed remains of an estimated six million Parisians. Yes, exhumed: when the city became overpopulated by dead bodies, the government dug them up and dumped the skeletons in centuries-old stone quarries on the then-outskirts of town. But they didn't stop there; they actually "decorated" some of the walls with stacked bones and skulls. Recent travelers say Les Catacombes de Paris aren't for the faint-of-heart or for the claustrophobic, and some say they're not for young children either.
The Stanley Hotel
While staying in the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado -- room #217, to be exact -- Stephen King was inspired to write what would become a cult classic, The Shining. Those prone to any kind of runaway imagination could scare themselves stiff staying at the Stanley, but the hotel's real ghosts are more than willing to frighten. The Billiards Room, the Ballroom and Room 407, in particular, are known for sheltering apparitions.
St. Louis Cathedral (New Orleans)
The St. Louis Cemetery #1 -- nestled on the outskirts of the French Quarter in New Orleans -- is the burial site of 19th-century Voodoo princess Marie Laveau, who is said to haunt the cemetery in several incarnations, one being a red-eyed black cat. Local lore says you should beware this black cat, or you could find yourself forever doing the bidding of this dead Voodoo Queen. Others say it's the ghost of her pet snake that appears.
Tower of London
One of the most notorious chopping blocks (for human heads, that is), the nearly millennia-old Tower of London is supposedly one of the most haunted sites in all of Britain. According to experts, a headless Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII's second wife, is one of its most constant presences. The ghost of Sir Walter Raleigh is known to traipse the Byward Tower, and the screams of Guy Fawkes, who was found guilty of high treason in 1606, are sometimes heard, sending chills up the listener's spine. Perhaps the most horrifying sighting is of Lady Salisbury who, in 1541, ran screaming from her axe-wielding executioner, who in turn chased after her and chopped her to death. Several witnesses have reportedly seen the gruesome scene played out in full.
The Lizzie Borden B&B
In 1892 in Fall River, Ma., Lizzie Borden told the judge and jury that she was snacking on pears in the barn while her stepmother and father were being axed to death in the family's house. Although she'd allegedly attempted to buy cyanide prior to the murders and she'd burnt some of her clothing after the murders occurred, she was eventually acquitted of the crimes. All the evidence was circumstantial, but doubt lingered. Some say it's the ghosts of the murdered Andrew and Abby Borden that wander the house; others say that it's Lizzie herself.
Beechworth Lunatic Asylum
At Beechworth Lunatic Asylum (later known as Mayday Hills Hospital) in Victoria, Australia, patients checked in but few checked out. Eight signatures were required for a patient's discharge while only two were needed for admittance. Historians estimate upwards of 3,000 people -- some of whom didn't even need mental help -- died captive within its walls. Inside the facility, which opened in 1867, a number of atrocities occurred, ranging from exploited labor and neglect to abuse and inhumane medical treatments/experiments like the Darwin chair (where doctors would tie patients to revolving chairs and spin them so fast, they would bleed from their mouths, eyes, noses and ears). There are frequent ghost sightings, and not just of patients, but of doctors and nurses too.
Transylvania, Romania
Bram Stoker set his blood-chilling novel, Dracula, in the central Romanian region of Transylvania. According to Romania Tourism, the area is overgrown with thick forest and shrouded by steep mountains -- a fitting milieu for the dark deeds Jonathan Harker witnessed at Castle Dracula. But that's not all. Legend has it, the fictional character Count Dracula was inspired by a real-life Romanian royal, Vlad Dracula, or "Vlad the Impaler," who was known for brutality against his enemies.
Edinburgh Underground
Edinburgh, Scotland puts up a great façade -- the majestic rolling hills, the grand Balmoral Hotel, the refined Princes Street Gardens -- but underneath its streets rests a distinctly different reality: a maze of vaults dating back to the mid-1700s. Originally, Edinburgh's Underground Vaults served to benefit commerce, but they quickly became a cesspool for criminal activity, where everyone from black market traders to prostitutes (and their clients), and even murderers congregated. Auld Reekie Tours, one company who leads brave souls through the vaults, claims the existence of ghosts, writing on its website: "The South Bridge Poltergeist has been known to attack," and "We do believe that Niddry Wynd is home to a very active poltergeist. People have left with cuts, scratches, burns and bruises."

The St. Louis Cemetery is not that creepy at midday. The streets near Edinburgh castle are creepy at all times.ReplyDelete
The Darwin Chair at Beechworth sounds quite gruesome! Yikes!ReplyDelete
I think I will avoid all of these places. The Stanley Hotel might be cool to see, but it would probably creep me out if I started thinking about the movie, The Shining, too much while there.
The Ghost Hunters episode where they went to Edinburgh was one of the only times that show has actually freaked me out. **shiver**ReplyDelete
We drove by the Stanley Hotel while in CO, and I really wish we'd stopped to investigate!
Who thought it was a good idea to make Lizzie Borden's house a B&B???ReplyDelete
Toured Paris's catacombs with my then-8-year-old. He loved, loved, loved it. (The husband wouldn't go near the place.)ReplyDelete
It was also the headquarters of the Resistance in WWII. Guess they figured it was too creepy even for the Nazis.
I've been to the Stanley Hotel and it is creepy. I refused to spend the night after attending a rehearsal dinner there a few years ago. Just walking the hallways scared the pajeebers out of me and I don't frighten easily.ReplyDelete
New Orleans creeped me out. Not all of it, but certain parts. Just some fonky juju here and there.ReplyDelete

I just checked out the Stanley Hotel on wikipedia. Apparent;y they play The Shinning on a contious loop on one of their channels. Talk about milking it in!ReplyDelete
Paris catacombs are not scary at all - in fact it is a pretty pleasant (and long) walk. Anyone freaked by bones will not like it, but that can apply to churches and all sorts of places.ReplyDelete
Weirdest part is where some of the priests/bishops/etc have been dressed in robes and propped up. They really decorated the place too - interesting architecture down there. Lineups were long.
It's all subjective, no? I'm not afraid of spiders in the least, but I know people who would rather die than touch a spider.ReplyDelete
Wanna know scary? When I was at school we were taken for a guided tour of the Beechworth lunatic asylum. And before you start asking "geez smauge - How old ARE you??" I'm still under forty. THAT'S how recent that place was operational. Not going to forget that excursion in a hurry!ReplyDelete
I'd stay in the Stanley. I don't believe in ghosties at all. I would like to, but in this age of everybody's got a cell phone with a camera on it, you think someone would have captured proof... and don't give me that 'orbs' crap. After I sand in the wood shop and take a picture the place is lousy with orbs.ReplyDelete
I've not been to the Stanley, but in The Shining whenever they show exterior shots of the hotel it's the Timberline Lodge in Oregon, and I actually have been there. And I only throw that out there because I've been to like 4 places in my whole life.ReplyDelete

I visited the Tower of London extensively, and I don't find it haunted, just deeply sad because of all the suffering that went on there. What really turns my stomach is how cruel humans can be to each other just because they can.ReplyDelete
I'm with Siress Yorkie--nothing particularly scary about the Tower of London. Unless Amy Winehouse happens to be there that day.ReplyDelete
I'd love to visit the Tower of London. I'm sure Siress and Heidi R. are right about it being more a sad energy than haunted.ReplyDelete

Bearded drag queen Conchita Wurst wins Eurovision song contest
Austrian bearded drag queen Conchita Wurst, who was initially written off as too provocative for some socially conservative countries, won the 59th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest on May 10, Saturday with a James Bond-inspired entry that had unleashed a wave of protests in eastern Europe before the competition. The power ballad, "Rise Like a Phoenix," helped Wurst — the alter ego of 25-year-old Thomas Neuwirth — secure Austria's second victory in the competition with 290 points. The country also won in 1966.
Eurovision is an annual event held every year since 1956, created in the aftermath of World War II to encourage good relations between neighbors. Today, Eurovision draws a television audience of about 180 million people in 45 countries.

Perfect Abs Without the Gym? What Are Your Options?
posted on
You've perfected your diet and renewed your commitment to the ab machine at the gym, but when you're still struggling with extra fat around the waistline, it could take months to catch a glimpse of that six-pack.
Sculpted abs and a whittled waistline may be the result of hours of hard work at the gym and your body's natural shape and contours, but you can defy nature with the help of a cosmetic procedure that targets the abdominals. From skin tightening treatments to liposuction, consider these effective cosmetic treatments to get that six-pack without a single crunch:
How to Lose Belly Fat with Liposuction?
Tumescent liposculpture and ultrasound assisted liposculpture treatments are just two common fat removal treatments that can help recontour the midsection. Liposuction procedures are designed to suction away fatty deposits, and body sculpting procedures can then tighten and tone loose skin left over from the treatment. If you can't lose those last 5 – 8 pounds around your stomach, you may be a good candidate for liposuction.
How to Tighten Up the Stomach with a Tummy Tuck?
The tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) may be the 'ultimate' solution for getting that six-pack and achieving a flat, sleek torso. A tummy tuck is an extensive surgical procedure that gets rid of excess fat and skin around the stomach and restructures the entire torso. You'll be left with a tight, toned and flat stomach and lose a few pounds in the process.
How to Get Rid of Abdominal Fat with SmartLipo?
SmartLipo treatments help remove extra body fat with laser lipolysis, a procedure that can spot-reduce fat on the abdominals and around the waist. SmartLipo is less painful than conventional liposuction, and is an in-office procedure that can be completed after just one office visit. If you want the effects of liposuction without the downtime and risks involved, SmartLipo may be a better choice for your six-pack plan.
How to Sculpt the Midsection with Thermage?
Body by Thermage is typically used to treat cellulite and tighten the skin, but can be used on the abdominal area to smooth out the skin, improve skin tone and create a sleek and sculpted look. Body Thermage is a great choice if you have a few pounds of loose skin to manage and aren't able to lose the weight with your usual abdominal exercise routine. Thermage can be used with other body sculpting treatments and create a natural, rejuvenating effect.
How to Recontour the Abs with VelaShape?
VelaShape treatments are just one of many cellulite removal treatments available that can reduce the appearance of cellulite and tighten and tone the skin. This treatment makes use of radio frequency and infrared light to mobilize tissues and re-contour the body. The VelaShape system has received FDA-approval for cellulite reduction, and may be a valuable solution for getting a slim, sculpted look around the waist.
How to Improve Contours of the Waistline with Titan?
Titan skin tightening treatments can be used on almost any part of the body to get rid of hanging skin, reduce wrinkles, and eliminate the appearance of cellulite. Titan skin tightening treatments can also be used on the abdominal area to firm up loose skin tissue and leave the midsection looking smooth and sculpted. This non-invasive procedure can be combined with other body sculpting techniques such as liposuction or mesotherapy injections for enhanced results.
From liposuction to skin tightening procedures, you have several options for getting that six-pack – without the daily workout. Each of these procedures can be combined with other body sculpting techniques for a complete makeover; maintaining results will involve eating a balanced diet and keeping up with a consistent exercise schedule.
Learn more about body sculpting and fat removal procedures in our information guide, or consult with a cosmetic or plastic surgeon in your area to find out how soon you can get that six-pack you dream of.

Facebook sales and user growth exceeded Wall Street expectations in Q4: 8.2 percent of the world's Facebook users are in African countries.
|Scooped by Comrade
8A NathanK's curator insight, February 16, 7:09 AM
The article talks about how 8.2 percent of the worlds Facebook users are in African countries. Basic internet is becoming a thing in developing African countries. This happening is allowing people to use Facebook in African countries. This helps use to understand Africa because we see even now countries are still needing to evolve to the current technological era. African countries are behind because they were held back by all the countries that used Africans as slaves. They didn't get the chance to research this technology so the y are only getting it now.
I think that this shows that Africa is doing well at learning. They are finally getting what they deserve they had the ability to still grow. The topic of the article is great and shows promise for the future of all African countries and people.
8B KellyC's curator insight, February 18, 10:59 AM
This article was about the socialization of people in Africa. They said that 8.2 percent of Facebook users are in Africa. Also, in Nigeria alone, the top three most popular internet-based apps were Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp which is all owned by Facebook. 65 percent of Nigerian said that Facebook is internet for them. The use of social apps are currently rising in Africa, and Mark Zuckerberg also said that his vision is to have more Africans connected online.
This article helped me understand about Africa more because at first, I thought that Africa doesn't really have access to internet or any other social apps. However, that was wrong. Most of the Africans nowadays have access to online and they can socialize with other people in other countries or continent. I also think that this is quite impressive that 8.2 percent of Facebook users live in Africa. That means most of Africans have a Facebook account and they can connect to people in other side of the planet. I hope that more people would have access to internet of any other social apps to socialize with one another around the world.

Chapter 8-
George was my brother. My elder brother, and the man who thought himself responsible if anything happened to me. He had been the only one with the sense to advise me to wait a few more years before I decided to marry Peter; we all thought that at the age that I was, I was capable of making a lifelong choice like that. George had tried to make himself the closest one to me as I suffered through the separation. He cared so strongly for me, even after he got married. As far as I knew, their relationship was going fine, but George, in my opinion, spent far too long at my house…sometimes more than he did at his own.
"Oh, hell," I groaned, a fully formed picture of my dear George, there in my head, reprimanding me for lying in.
"He's coming over, and I look like I'm hungover."
"Are you hungover?"
"Of course not, what do you take me for? I haven't touched a drop since…"
Steven coughed. This was quickly becoming a taboo subject.
"Anyway. I've come to clean up the house, and your act, et cetera, before he comes. If George sees you in this state-"
"I know. Really, I'm fine. Yesterday was just…a bit disappointing."
"Nothing," I said quickly, "Work wasn't interesting… It wasn't at all productive."
I just hoped that Steven didn't know that I was taking time off work, as they had organized.
"Take it from me- that's life."
"Steven! Where did you get such a terrible attitude?"
And by that, he meant the childhood exit of his father.
