Six Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Buy A Super Sports Bike As A Starter Bike

Posted on by

Are you 17 or 18 year old kid? Just barely out of high school and wants a sports bike as graduation gift? Or are you a parent who is worried because your son is begging you to buy him a super sports bike as his first?

Conventional wisdom has it that for a starter bike you should get a smaller bike, a used one at that. Here are reasons why you should keep your rookie’s hands off that shiny, new, powerful beast of a machine called a super sports bike as a beginner’s bike:

1. Super sports bikes are expensive. Plus you factor in additional cash outlay in insurance, (comprehensive, liability, medical) gears (leather jacket, motorcycle boots, full-fingered gloves and full-face helmet) lock and chain, gas money and rising mechanic’s bill for the upkeep.

Internet Sports TV brings only one word to mind WOW!

Posted on by

Ever since I began surfing the web to watch the latest scores of my favorite sports, I used to wonder whether the world wide web will become so fast and efficient someday, that it will enable sports lovers to watch sports online without switching their TV channels. That way sports buffs will not only maintain harmony in their homes, but also utlilize their leisure time more efficiently. Low broadband speeds were the bane of the internet industry for nearly a decade and it is only recently that telecom companies got their act together and began offering 3G and 4G speeds at affordable prices. Cut-throat competition in this sector seems to have played a major role in this phenomenon.

With high broadband speeds now a reality, entertainment portals have begun to offer live-streaming of sports events, making life a lot easier for those who wanted to convert their PCs into entertainment devices. Internet sports TV is the direct consequence of this entire phenomenon and has most certainly become a hit amongst viewers desirous of obtaining the maximum value for their buck. Not only does it offer economy, but also combines several conveniences, because viewers can watch their favourite sports events on the go. By using their hand held devices like mobiles, IPods, PDAs or laptops users can easily watch their favourite sports stars in action and marvel at their performances. Moreover, with these portals offering rewind, playback and live- streaming facilities, viewers will not miss even a second of the thrilling encounters that happen on the sports fields.

Work related stress will become a thing of the past, as these portals will prove to be the best stress busters as more and more viewers begin to watch sports online. These online portals offer users a very high degree of interactivity, something which television cannot match. Not only can users watch sports online, but also participate in live chats with other sports buffs and post their opinions about the shows on these online forums.

Gershon Richard Kwasi Norgbey – the Celebrated Educationist

Posted on by

Gershon Richard Kwasi Norgbey, the celebrated educationist was born at Ziavi Dzogbe in the then German Togoland on the 15th of July, 1917. During the 1960s and 1970s, he championed the cause of education in the Volta Region and in Ghana as a whole. This to a very large extent resulted in a boom of educational development in the Volta Region during those early years after Ghana’s independence.

The sixth of ten (10) children born to Togbe Norgbey Nani of the royal clan of Tsadaviefe, Ziavi and Sarah Abra Anku of Anaviefe also in Ziavi, he was named Kwasi for being born on a Sunday. He was christened and baptised Gershon to follow the tradition of Hebro-Germanic names his father gave the older boys; Gotthold and Erasmus. Gershon himself added Richard when he had Eucharistic Confirmation in the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in his youth. Though Gershon Norgbey kept his two European names, he departed from this tradition by giving all his children only indigenous EWE names . Gershon Norgbey spent his early childhood, like most children of his generation, with his parents in Ziavi.

His father Norgbey Nani was a well travelled man and had farms in the Ahamansu forest regions of the Trans-Volta Togoland, a part of which is now the Volta Region of Ghana. He was an enlightened man and though he did not have formal education, he spoke some little German and played the accordion with which he entertained his family and friends in the evening after farm work.
