Car TalkThe $1 Million Mercedes. by alexov(op): 11:33pm On Jan 18, 2017
Just recently i saw a documentary about a canadian company, inkas group that builds these customized G63 limousines. So i went online and found this article on business insider detailing all the features of this insane car. Here's the business insider article, Prepare to be amazed.

The "standard" Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG is insane. It's a 5,600-pound, military-grade off-roader that can reach 60 mph in 5.3 seconds. Mercedes has even built a monstrous 6X6 version. But if you require a bit more heavy metal Inkas can help you out.
The Inkas-modified G63 AMG limo is truly menacing. Finished in matte black, the stretch limo dares to be messed with.

Inkas' modifications extend much further than just looks. All surfaces on the SUV — including windows — have been armored to provide protection from bullets of various calibers.
The vehicle floor is designed to withstand the detonation of a pair of fragmentation grenades.

To keep the G63 out of trouble, the limo is equipped with a slew of perimeter security cameras. Now that's enough protection to make any dictator green with envy.

Getaway power for the G63 comes courtesy of a hand-built, 5.5-liter biturbo V8 that pumps out 544 horsepower.

the G63 limo's cabin features vast quantities of fine leather and wood veneer, as expected for a car of this price point.

It is also equipped with a satellite TV system, refrigerator, a bar, and a speed-vault quick-access pistol holder.

All of the G63's luxury and security features can be controlled by its passengers through an integrated iPad Mini from the comfort of a pair captains chairs.

In case of emergency, the truck's indoor exhaust system can recirculate the air inside the vehicle in one minute to create a breathable atmosphere — on demand.

With all these features i think only the US presidential state car aka "The Beast" can compete.

TV/MoviesThe 5 Richest Superheroes by alexov(op): 10:44pm On Jan 18, 2017
Here's a breakdown of the 5 richest superheroes and their networths based on research done by the guys at money.


5. Emma Frost

Net Worth: $1-3 billion

Frost, a reformed villain, now helps lead the X-Men with her psychic powers—and her enormous fortune. As chair of the board and CEO of Frost International, a multi-billion dollar electronics conglomerate, the telepath has considerable financial resources. And while there's no specific figure placed on her wealth, her liquidated holdings were apparently sufficient to fund the X-Men's island base for "the foreseeable future." So that's probably a lot.


4. Professor Charles Xavier

Net Worth: $3.5 billion

Running a mutant superhero team isn't cheap, so it shouldn't be much of a surprise that two X-Men leaders make the list. Professor Charles Xavier, the founder of the X-Men and Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, is worth $3.5 billion; at least according to Fantomex, who tried to extort Xavier (New X-Men #129). You'd think the same person who can read everyone's mind might have a little bit more money on hand (he'd only be #497 in the Forbes 500), but Xavier seems to have bigger priorities than acquiring cash.


3. Bruce Wayne

Net Worth: $9.2 billion

Considering Bruce Wayne's superpower is essentially "being rich enough to afford gadgets and karate training," it makes sense that the Batman would be pretty loaded. Forbes estimates Wayne's worth at $9.2 billion, and lists his company, Wayne Enterprises, as having an annual revenue of $31.3 billion.


2. Tony Stark

Net Worth: $12.4 billion

Tony Stark, otherwise known as Iron Man, narrowly edges out Wayne in the battle of billionaire playboys. Interestingly, while Forbes ranks Stark's wealth ahead of Batman, the publication lists Stark Industries' revenue ($20.3 billion) as less than that of Wayne Enterprises. Chalk it up to Wayne's legendary philanthropy.


1. T'Challa

Net Worth: $90.7 trillion

T'Challa, the Black Panther, isn't just the richest superhero. He's almost undoubtedly the wealthiest fictional character of all time.

How is it even possible for one person to have this much wealth? T'Challa is the king of Wakanda, a fictional African country with nearly all of the world's reserves of Vibranium. And Vibranium, being a super-strong metal (Captain America's shield is made out of Vibranium), doesn't come cheap.

According to the comics, the material costs $10,000 per gram, and Wakanda's Vibranium vaults have 10,000 tons of the stuff (Doomwar #1). A little math and that amount of Vibranium would cost more than the GDP of the entire world.

Unfortunately for T'Challa, a plot by Doctor Doom to steal Wakanda's Vibranium forced the king to release a fail safe rending the stockpile inert, and potentially worthless. But on the upside, Black Panther is getting a movie in 2018. So you win some, you lose some.

Feel free to add any superheroes you feel should have made the list or maybe villains that trump any of the superheroes mentioned.

In some ways it did. It ended prematurely though. But it was great.

Sometimes when you just meet that perfect person all these rules and considerations just fall by the wayside. I can say from experience that even when you don't want to, somehow you just end up in that relationship cos that person is just the bomb.

Acquisition doesn't change nationality. It still a British car with it factory in the UK. Same way land rover acquired b TaTa of India yet remain a British car. If you still sceptical about the nationality, resort to Google.
I never said it wasn't a british car. I simply said it now belonged to a german parent company. So they would be able to keep producing quality vehicles as the germans are known for. The engines in the cars are bmw engines by the way.

Only the germans were worthy to carry on that legacy of extreme quality. By the way volkswagen actually acquired the company first from vickers before selling it to bmw

The turbocharger is basically an air pump. It supplies more air to the engine's intake. This air is needed for the combustion process in the engine. It gives the engine more power and greater fuel efficiency.

The right one didn't but the left one did. He simply raised the right leg while giving the hug and because of the angle you can't see that the left one is on the ground.

TV/MoviesRe: My Honest Review Of The Movie 'the Wedding Party' by alexov(m):
dabraska:
Guys, if in 2016/2017, you still don't believe in going to the cinema to watch Nigerian movies, you are missing alot. The much anticipated movie, 'The Wedding Party' has begun airing in cinemas nationwide and here are my honest thoughts.

I was particularly impressed with the ample appearances of Nigeria's finest in the movie industry. I must say a big kudos to the producers of this movie. Please note, this is not a spoiler (well, I'll try not to make it one).

Movie Quality (Sound/visual): As Nigerian movies continue to improve on the quality of their productions, this movie wasn't left out as it was top notch. Very clear and audible. Everyone could hear what they were saying. I'll give it 8/10.

Storyline: You'd agree with me that this has a similar storyline to the typical american comedy/drama movies that we are used to watching. However, it was a great one. I'll also give it 8/10

Acting: Yes! I have a lot of things to say about this. I was particularly impressed by Banky W's acting. For someone who has little or no experience in acting, he did pretty well. The star of the movie was one of my favourite actresses in Nigeria - Sola Shobowale. She just knows how to put on a good performance.

Frank Donga also did very well - especially in that scene where he said 'abi I should call my tailor?'. That made me almost fall off my chair in laughter. (Those who have watched the movie will understand).

Other scenes that impressed me:
Banky's rolls Royce scene. That was very very good. It felt so real.
The armed robber hostage scene.
The dancing scene.

But as embedded in the Nigerian gene to want to overact sometimes, this movie wasn't short of such displays. Alibaba's scenes portrayed him as over enthusiastic and it seemed he was over acting. I understand what the producer felt when he was bringing in Alibaba. However, I think he wasn't a good fit for that role. I think he's better as a stand up comedian. Acting may not be his thing. He had some good moments (robbery scene) but generally, his acting wasn't top notch.

Emmaohmygod: Although he's my friend and a very funny guy, his scene took away the realism (drama genre) from the movie. He did overact in his prayer scene and it became quite boring after a while.

Banky's 'best man': I understand the concept, however, the guy had a couple of low moments. He seems overtly confident and people could know that he was acting. I didn't see a lot of emotions from him (both the good and the bad).

So i would have given acting a high flying 8, but for the 'average' performances, I'll give it a 7/10.

Movie production/direction: The producers must have spent a fortune on this movie without a doubt. It isn't easy to assemble a whole list of celebrities for a movie. Logistics and movie set up must have cost some money. I'll give it 8/10.


In conclusion, while this movie may not gross as much revenue as Trip to Jamaica (the AY factor), it certainly is BY A WIDE MARGIN better than Trip to Jamaica and is one of the best movies produced in Nigeria yet.

Haha eat your words man. It beat a trip to Jamiaca and all others hands down in the cinemas. I really didn't see anything wrong with the way alibaba potrayed his character. He entertained throughout the movie. I think he played his character very well.

SmartyPants:
Wrong analysis. This is a marketing issue not an economics one tongue

Their price is not low in fact otherwise they would be doing these things for the average man on the street. But they are not. So obviously they are reserving the goodies for a certain class (or classless type). This is closely related to the marketing techniques of price skimming and premium pricing.
Who says the average man doesn't get a taste of the goodies? Davido won't be in calabar all year. They must have other consumers, average consumers to satisfy. The main thing is you haven't put in a request for the goods so you can't conclude that the average man doesn't get any.
