My Dearest Naa Ayele 💓

To the girl of my dreams
From the guy who believes you’re undeniably enough

My Dearest Naa Ayele,

If I was your West, would your eyes' sun set on me?
If I was your East, would your heart’s sun rise in joy from seeing me?
If I was your North, would your life’s compass always point to me?
If I promised to forever remain faithful, work on myself, right all my wrongs, worship the very ground you walk on, would your love for me still go south?

I don’t remember when we first met or the first words we ever spoke but I swear, my life has never been…no!
Scratch that, my life has never been, my life will never be the same.
I am only but a man but any time I see you, I feel I am one with the wind – I can fly.
I am only a few decades old but I feel I have seen it all when my eyes steal glimpses at you.
You embody everything perfect and true and divine and everything twice.
You paint my mind with picturesque images only heaven could conjure.
Whoever drew your curves has to be the universe’s greatest cartographer

God gave the whole world oxygen but my lungs are allergic to it when you’re away.
The only air that gives life to my frail life is your sweet scented breath.
Death stares blatantly if you are not within my eye’s reach.
Your fierce fine fair face drowns out my voice like how the darkness sinks the sun’s rays anytime I see you
There is a lot I want to say that lurk behind my simple hello’s and hi’s
Everything about you is addictive! A drug I can never get enough of
I have never needed anything more than I need you

Aah my dearest Naa Ayele,
You can ask the secretary of God for how many times I’ve petitioned her office to ask God to make you mine
You are in every word I ever wrote or any word I ever spoke
You linger on my mind all day long till sleep steals me briefly only for you to consume all of me again
The only good thing about sleeping now is the visits and the dinners
Did I tell you about the last time we went to the Bahamas?
Don’t worry, I will tell you when we meet tonight.

I can promise you heaven and the riches of Solomon in all of its splendour and grandeur
I can promise you all the sweetness in the honey bears long for
But all I want to do is to spend the rest of my days kissing the tears from your eyes every single day and light smile bulbs in your eyes
All I want is to listen to you how your day went after the day is spent as your heart beat against my chest
All I want to do is to stare into your dark cute eyes and imbibe all the wisdom and intellect till the silver moon hangs no more
All I want to do is to be first face that brings you joy and the last face to bring you sadness
I want to be the reason why crying will never be an option making my shoulders obsolete for crying on

I swear, you’ll dwell in my heart all the days of my life
My life’s mission and vision statement would be this, and this only,
“To make you laugh and smile till death do us part”.
On our wedding day please tell the Pastor to skip the ” I dos” because I already did!
I would leave this world if I am to live without you
No second thoughts or useless doubts
Because tell me, what better fortune can life ever bless me with that you don’t exceed a gazillion times over?
You’re the only promise land I’ll sacrifice everything to chase

My only regret is that I am mortal and eventually I would die having only a lifetime to love you with a love all divinities would envy.
I hope your eyes see this letter but your heart actually does the reading.
Always know that till the suns light dim and the oceans become Sahara, I will love you no matter where you are, who you are with, or even if you never love me back because sometimes it feels like talking to a goddess who will never talk back.

--Prince George

New 'Artificial Leaf' That Converts Carbon Dioxide Into Fuel

Scientists have created an “artificial leaf” to fight climate change by inexpensively converting harmful carbon dioxide (CO2) into a useful alternative fuel. The new technology, outlined in a paper published on November 4, 2019, in the journal Nature Energy, was inspired by the way plants use energy from sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into food. “We call it an artificial leaf because it mimics real leaves and the process of photosynthesis,” said Yimin Wu, an engineering professor at the University of Waterloo who led the research. “A leaf produces glucose and oxygen. We produce methanol and oxygen.” Making methanol from carbon dioxide, the primary contributor to global warming, would both reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide a substitute for the fossil fuels that create them. The key to the process is a cheap, optimized red powder called cuprous oxide. An hour-long chemical reaction creates the engineered red powder that is the key to new technology to tur...

Seater of The Week: Mr Abdul Latif Abubakar

Meet our Sports Personality of the Week, Mr Abdul-Latif Abubakar: a hard working gentleman and the current MATESA electoral commissioner. Mr.Latif - SOTW Who is Mr.Latif Abubakar?(Relationship status:dating, broken up, gnashing) Well, this question is a bit difficult to answer since day in and day out, people change and grow. But I will say Abdul Latif Abubakar is a young hard working gentleman who believes in self-discipline. Ha-ha, sure I’m dating. Share with us your experience in secondary school.What is the worst you ever did in school you really regret. I attended T.I. Ahmadiyya Senior High School, Kumasi (Real Amass). My SHS life was very fun and nice. I will say, I didn’t really struggle over there; and because I was a very hard working and discipline guy, everyone liked me. Oh not really (on the worst thing) but I think my only regret was forcing some mates to adhere to the school rules and regulations since I was a prefect. Why did you choose KNUST over t...

Vibranium - The Wonder of Wakanda

Black Panther wearing Vibranium suit. PC: ucf.edu If you've ever thought that the Vibranium metal used in the Black Panther movie is a real material, you're possibly mistaken. What is Vibranium? Sourced from a meteorite that landed in Wakanda many centuries ago, Vibranium provides the superpower in the main character’s suit, absorbing energy and redistributing it. Vibranium (/vaɪˈbreɪniÉ™m/) is a fictional metal appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, noted for its extraordinary abilities to absorb, store, and release large amounts of kinetic energy. Mined only in Wakanda, the metal is associated with Black Panther, who wears a suit of vibranium, and with Captain America, who bears a vibranium-steel alloy shield which has never been reproduced. Real-world Material In 2016, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies developed a real-world smart composite material that they named Vibranium. The lightweight carbon fiber material for the Hyperloop ...

Love Today, A Misconception?

As Tolstoy said, ''There are as many kinds of love as there are hearts''. Since the genesis of the world, from the making of green and every moving thing on the surface of the earth, love has been there. Everything natural we see is love’s product. The subject has been largely misconstrued with infatuation, lust, idolization, or obsession. There is no age to stop infatuating about someone. Infatuations sometimes bamboozle people into thinking that they are in love. Infatuation is our temporary liking and attraction towards someone whom we think are in love with, and this makes us falsely proclaim that indeed we are in love. A lot of relationships have failed to stand the test of time due to both party's inability to decipher how they feel, what they feel and why they feel what they feel. As we grow with time, we begin to have affection toward each other be it heterosexual or homosexual. This affection takes more serious and mature form with time. In toda...

THE WAIT

Illustration. Credit: HIOS The past they say hunts you down . But to get someone who overlooks all the past and says, ''Hey you deserve another shot'', has always been a one in a million event. We met in the weirdest of ways but we have grown to become the best of friends. If anyone had told me things would have grown this fast between us, I wouldn't have believed. Today I stare at your pictures and I can literally smell you. ''Am I getting mad?'', I ask myself. Maybe, no; probably yes. But if I would go mad because of the person who although I needed a new start due to my past transgressions, yet believed in me, then I wouldn't think twice about it. I guess the light I see in her is what she sees in me. We are taking things slow, not rushing a thing; trusting Your timing, not pushing when we need to pull--step by step, growth by growth--not  missing even a single nano-detail of the process. Am I mad to wait till you are ready?  For I...

The 'thinking metal': Shape Memory Alloy

Nitinol wires. PC: Wikpedia By Francis Agyemang, Member of the Editorial Team, MATESA KNUST We are the intelligent metal alloys !!! Yes! People prefer to call us shape memory alloys and it is the name we well deserve. We never forget our shape when thermal or mechanical load is exerted on us. Once the load is removed, we regain our pre-deformed shape. Our thermal deformation is very unique, unlike other metals, we deform under low temperatures and regain our shapes upon heating. Our effect (shape memory effect) was first discovered in an alloy of gold and cadmium (AuCd) by Swedish physicist Arne Olander in 1932. 2D view of nitinol's crystalline structure during cooling/heating cycle The two most prevalent smart alloys are copper-aluminium-nickel (CuAlNi) and nickel-titanium ( Nitinol). Though we have many uses and potential applications, we are commonly used in mending broken bones and making of dental braces. A nitinol paperclip bent and recovered aft...

The Quality of Locally-manufactured Cornmill Grinding Plates

Corn mill A KNUST research has revealed people who consume corn-related foods risk contracting all kinds of cancers According to the research, the locally manufactured machine used to grind the corn into dough food wears off faster into the dry maize, thus contaminating it. A study by two lead researchers at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has revealed that consumers of corn-related foods risk contracting all kinds of cancers. The research was undertaken by Prof. Kwofie, who is the Dean of the Faculty of Mechanical and Chemical Engineering (former) of the College of Engineering, and Dr. Anthony Andrews (now Professor) , the Head of Department (former)  for Materials Engineering . The study found that the metals used for the milling plates usually wear off when the food products are being grinded. This, the study said, opens consumers to the risk of contracting cancer, since the metals contain 'iron overloads' which are poisonous. ...

Be A Survivor -- A Poem By F. Agyemang

Many across the globe are bearing the brunt of Covid19. Some who haven't experienced it can't really imagine its consequences on people and economies. Let us thus relieve ourselves of the stress with this exhilarating poetic piece by @cocajuana_pens You can call me Covid I'm more dangerous than conflict I have no limit And I kill without mercy Cos I have no vaccine Just don't dare me I might end your destiny I'm so wicked! But you can avoid me Stay at home Give a distance And do no hommies For instance If you have to sneeze or cough Just cover it off Don't do it raw Else it'll be an issue So kindly use a tissue Hand washing should be regular That's the normal routine Do it with soap under running water Even if you haven't eaten Wondering how to keep clean? Use a hand sanitizer Just like many diseases I know I won't last forever A vaccine will be made And I will be slayed Until then, you have to be a survivor ...
