Juo ya.Before now ,I did not know who she was

@Stilletos

Of all the lovely Nigerian women,you are not one of them

Mad people full here for sure and you are surely one of them

I didn't know there was something wrong with the letter "X",untill I came across this story-http://www.nysun.com/article/46707

Apparently some Islamic scholars are unhappy with it and want it banned in Saudi Arabia.Reason is,it resembles the cross

The Islamic world can seem strange especially looking from the outside

When I first came on NL.I used my real email and I was getting crap,even threats

As a female,you will get countless stalkers if you put up your mail address.

My girlfriend,Coco 29, gets everything from marriage proposals to appeals for money .

Just set up another email address for nairaland.Don't use your real email.

Should I still send mine through your former email or should I leave it

@nnenneigbo

Nga agwa gi na email

I have too many enemies here

See them,Onitsha boys.Agboro

@Kitaun

Who is 17 points clear of Arsenal?

Answer the question and move on

A prominent man was found dead in an Arsenal jersey.

The Police dressed up the dead body in female underwear to save his family the embarrasment .True story

What do you call an Arsenal fan with half a brain?

Gifted

If you want to talk about the past,am cool with that .Simple question,have you ever won the Champions League?

Our past is better than yours,the present is better than yours and the future will be the same

Keep dreaming about 2 years from now.You dream about things,we live your dreams

Ok,so you are now reduced to spectators wishing Chelsea success against us.How the mighty has fallen

Did I hear you mention the transition?Is it IBB's or Abacha's transition

Ok so in 2 years ,you will win the league .You remind me of Leeds Utd a few years ago,with all those young players

When we did a similar transition in 94/95,we won the league straight away.2 years from now will make it 5 years since you won

Was it not Bolton we beat 4-0 at home?.It took you 210 mins to get a victory against them

Reading is still stronger side than BLACKBURN.You even had your best player,Henry,on the pitch and you still couldn't score

In the last 5 matches,apart from the Ojoro against Wigan,you have not won a match in regular time

debosky:
d

the table speaks for itself,

Exactly!A year from now,we will only remember this season for who won the league.

What do you remember the 98/99 season for?Was it the fact that Arsenal beat us 3-0 twice or was it the fact that we won the league?

The undeniable truth is,you would rather be in our position than in yours

My friend,it is a shame that it took you 210 mins to defeat Bolton

Reading are a much stronger side than Blackburn,they had no midweek match.

Face the facts,your team is useless.

Women

Are you forgetting you have lost more games this season than us.Do u remember a team called Sheffield Utd?They didn't even have a goalkeeper.

You couldn't beat a team without a goalie.Abomination

The table speaks for itself.

If you weren't so crap,you would have defeated Bolton at first attempt.Your problems were self inflicted

If we are so crap at 1st position,what are you at 4th?

Lucky Blackburn just came off a tough midweek game away to Bayern Leverkusen

Luckier you were meeting Blackburn instead of Reading,look at the league table

Lucky Blackburn were missing 7 first team starters

That crap club couldn't beat Blackburn,so their crap manager is trying to get the FA to remove replays

Useless people,can't even beat Blackburn with their best players

Afam:
Seems someone is going round the bend here. Abi the spin doctor don run out of ideas?

Na you be the Igwe of Spin of Nairaland.I still admire the work you did on UN Security Council Resolutions and the CNN report

My 2 earlier statements on who America blames for Katrina are in no way different

kabiyesi:
4Play ~ You live in the UK, but you seem to know more about America than those that live there. Where do you get your newsfeed from? BBC? You're blaming both the Mayor and the Governor for Katrina. Are you on Prozac?

Most Americans attribute greater blame to the Mayor and Governor than the President in every poll conducted on the subject.Last time I checked,most Americans live in the US

MAMAJAMA:
texazzpete since some of my posting are too intelligent for you to comprehend. when secretary of state goes to the middle east to speak on behalf of USA who is she representing herself or the US GOVERNMENT? when the US Ambassador to Nigeria spoke on the USA disapproval OF BANNING OF INDICTED CONTESTANT for the up comming election. was he speaking for himself as well. I rather not waste my time talking to you on some issues, what the hec is $50 Million converted to naira? boy come to ABUJA and hang out with the big boys we have places in Abuja that won't even accept naira. there is money in Nigeria we just have leaders that are mismanaging the funds available.

The statements here were not attributed to the Ambassador or the Secretary of State but to anonymous sources quoting anonymous congressmen

Sure we have money,$40 billion dollars in oil revenues per annum.The US's budget totalled $2.9trillon and that is just the Fed Govt's budget

Donzman:
You might want to find out why they find renewable energy more costly?. .

Go on tell us why

Donzman:
You might want to find out why they find renewable energy more costly?. . .Could it be because countries like Nigeria give them Oil and Gas on the cheap?. .

No we don't sell it on the cheap.We sell gas to the US at almost the same price as Canada sells to the US.Energy prices have been going up over the past few years

Donzman:
If the price of gas goes up, suddenly renewable energy does not seem that costly anymore.

We have not yet reached that stage

Donzman:
If the price of gas goes up, we will do better selling and using the funds generated to invest in other sectors.

No we will do better investing in the most cost effective energy resources.That is what economics is about

Donzman:
Just because you produce oil does not mean you have to consume it. You could be better off trading what you produce for what you want to consume, theory of Comparative Advantage.

No,David Ricardo's Theory of Comaparative Advantage demands that you spend what what you have on what you don't have if it is cheaper that way.It is not cheaper to trade our very cheap domestic fossil fuels for very expensive Western renewable technology

Donzman:
I have no data and unable to do cost analysis so no final conclusions but just based on the fact that oil and gas isn't forever (they're not diamonds), I'll favour selling it and investing in other sustainable energy sources/

This is not matter of now or never.We can use the cheaper fossil fuels now and when it is more cost effective ,renewable energy.We shouldn't jump the gun.

India and China are developing nations yet they are nowhere near engaging in such large scale investment in renewable energy.You must have heard of them snapping up our hydrocarbon

If this was such a brilliant idea,why aren't they doing it first

Donzman:
Sustainable development 4Play, burning off gas isn't sustainable, renewable energy is. We can sell that gas and use it to fund renewable energy sources and research towards energy sustainability. At the end of the day when the gas has run out, we will be glad we have invested in renewable energy technology. Unless you want us to burn our gas now then depend on foreign energy technology in the future.

Dude,you and I know that investing in renewable energy would not neccessarily make us develop indigenous technology in renewable energy that would free us from foreign technology.

We have invested billions of dollars on fossil fueled power plants and yet we have no discernible technology in that area that is indigenous.

What we need most is economic growth and we can't get that unless we learn to allocate scarce resources efficiently.Right now the most efficient source of energy is natural gas,which we have an abundance of.

The Western nations find renewable energy very costly and that is why they have been slow in adopting it and they have resorted to doing things such as importing gas from us.If it is too costly for them,it is more so for us.

All this talk of us developing our own technology is gibberish and you know that

LoverBwoy:
If it doesn't make an impact in colorado it will make an impact in our local communities

With respect to global warming,it is not localised.Reducing our fossil fuel emissions won't have an impact on the effects of global warming in Nigeria

LoverBwoy:
when the major countries actually decide to make a change then we might find it extremely expensive because it the in thing, we will now be bringing in some "consultants" to do feasibility test for us.

If renewable energy is too expensive for rich nations at the moment to adopt on a massive scale,it is more so for poorer countries.

In Nigeria,we have one of the world's largest reserves of natural gas.That is more economically sensible to exploit instead of flaring gas as we do at the moment.

Countries are lining up to buy our gas and people are advocating that we should stop using it for ourselves.Renewable energy is the way of the future but at the moment it cannot solve our energy needs
