Okonkwo’s Fame
Okonkwo was well known throughout the nine villages and even beyond. His fame rested on solid personal achievements. As a young man of eighteen, he had brought honour to his village by throwing Amalinze the Cat. Amalinze was the great wrester who for seven years was unbeaten, from Umuofia to Mbaino. He was called the Cat because his back would never touch the earth. It was this man that Okonkwo threw in a fight which the old men agreed was one of the fiercest since the founder of their town engaged a spirit of the wild for seven days and seven nights.

Hemochromatosis
The normal iron content of a human body is about 3-4 grams, which is held mostly in the red blood cells. It is an important component in our body in that it helps magnetize oxygen onto the red blood cells. The body also stores a small amount on a molecule called ferritin that can hold up to 4,500 molecules of iron.
How to Manage your Money

If the great Recession has highlighted nothing else, it has shown the wisdom of living on a well - planned budget. What is a budget? Simply put, it is an estimate of how income will be used, whether by an individual, a family, a business, or a government.
Business and advertising
The wholesale trade requires premises suitable for a counting-house and one or more warehouses whereas the retail trade requires large shop-windows preferably with a flat above.
Business people who do not own the premises have to pay a yearly or a quarterly rent to landlords (proprietors). The contact under which the premises are let out to the tenant is called: lease.
