Some people have a rather naive way of thinking about patriotism. They think it means closing one's eyes to anything bad in the society, playing down it's impact or even refusing to talk about/acknowledge it's existence. That's why when they read or hear what people like myself have to say, they brand us unpatriotic - even claiming we exaggerate the severity of the problem described. But very often, when you go close, they turn out to be people who are protected from the fallouts of the problem, through comfortable jobs, access to influential persons etc. My patriotism is what makes me write about things that are being done wrongly, and propose alternative ways that can be adopted to the benefit of everyone in society. Looking the other way will not make bad habits disappear, nor will it improve the lives of those who suffer hardships because of some people's greed and fraudulent actions. T.K.

Preview: When I discovered what I had done, I could not believe it. With my own mouse pointer, I had selected the folder containing over three year's worth of data/work, and deleted it by pressing the Shift-Delete key combination/clicking YES, thereby bypassing the recycle bin! At that moment, I considered it the biggest mistake of my life, and one that - as I told my wife - could ruin me, since I had not backed up my hard drive for a while despite making many numerous updates to its contents. As I continued to gaze at the screen, the power was cut off, so that I had to shut down the PC while on UPS. This would later turn out to be a blessing in disguise, as I would learn from reading about how to maximise chances of recovering mistakenly deleted files from a computer. In this article, I narrate the true story of
how, on Saturday 11th March 2006, I successfully recovered - under 2
hours -- over 146 MB(1,800 files approx) that I had deleted in error.
I did this by following certain very important preliminary steps, and
then using a nifty(160KB) freeware program, that I found on the Internet,
through a VERY desperate Google search. You'll want to read this! Feeling A Bit Tired? Take A Break NOW, OR Risk Ruining ALL That You've Done! Rather than wait till the end of this short piece, I will start by offering this moral as a quick take-away: No matter how much you love your work, since you are only human, you WILL get tired every now and then. When you do, your love might make you reluctant to take a break and rest/relax, in order to return for another session. But I beg you, PLEASE, avoid continuing in this state, because you become more prone to making mistakes if you do. And some of the mistakes you make in this state of mind could result in consequences that are not only serious, but also permanent. I have always had a problem doing the above, and until the experience I describe in this article happened to me, I never really made a point of taking a rest whenever my "body told me" it needed it. Instead, I would often force myself to write an extra article; build an extra web page; design an extra graphic; write more Excel VB code etc, until I got a headache that threatened to split my head in two - OR the electricity supply went off(a frequent occurrence out here) etc. I Mistakenly Deleted Three(3) Year's Worth Of Data! Well, that bad habit got me into BIG trouble on the morning of Saturday 11th March 2006. I was doing some "house cleaning" on my PC's hard drive, trying to find/remove obsolete files and free up some storage space. But in a moment of fatigue induced absent mindedness, I mistakenly clicked on and deleted the entire contents of a folder containing over three year's worth of work (over 146 MB - 1,800 files approx), by pressing the Shift-Delete key combination and clicking YES to bypass the recycle bin! I considered it the biggest mistake of my life, and one that - as I told my wife - could ruin me, since I had not backed up my hard drive for a while despite making many numerous updates to its contents. Luckily, some quick thinking and timely action(plus a little providence), enabled me get ALL my files back - intact - less than two hours later. Below, I explain what I did, so others may know what to do should they find themselves confronted with a similar dilemma. Click here to read the full article.
