pappyn: ![]() Olodo! Maybe you haven't noticed that this is an irresponsible thread about WAR! Scoot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SMART BULLET (You can't hide) ![]() MEND please buy this. "It would be hard to describe a bullet as smart, but what if that bullet was laser-guided, radio-controlled, and carried an onboard targeting CPU? The US Army has announced the creation of the XM25 rifle, which can fire a new type of explosive round that fit that exact description. Imagine the implications: hitting targets inside buildings or hiding around walls. Whoa. First, the scope on the rifle has a laser that gauges the distance to the target. The soldier can set exactly where the 25-millimeter bullet will detonate by adding or subtracting 3 meters from that point. Then, the scope will send a radio signal to a chip inside the bullet telling it how far it should travel before exploding. Now, here’s where things get truly nuts: Each bullet has a small magnetic transducer that interacts with the Earth’s magnetic field, generating a tiny alternating current every time it spins as it speeds toward the target. Measured against the gun's specially calibrated rifling, this means the bullet can keep track of how far it has traveled in real time. Whoa, again." http://www.popsci.com/military-aviation-amp-space/article/2009-06/smart-bullets

[quote author=Negro_Ntns link=topic=295273.msg4172814#msg4172814 date=1247352415]My friend, every race on earth believe they are better than Blacks. Even amongst blacks, the light skinned believe they are better than dark skinned. It is a brainwash. The brainwash has to do with physical attributes. There is another type of brainwash - The brainwash of historical accounts. I am glad you referenced both Egypt and Sudan in your response because I am going to change your view about Africa. The Africa that Imperial Europe know is not the one they are teaching you in school textbooks or written in public libraries and museums. Matter of fact, let me go ahead and declare to you that there exist private libraries and museums containing artifacts which are foerever closed to the public and is nonetheless funded by public tax and managed under custody of public trust. Access to them are limited and highly restricted. The Vatican has one such libraries in its vaults. You must wonder. . . if there is nothing to hide, why the secrecy and restriction to historical records. hmm? You ever wondered that far in your mind? Let me ask you a simple question. How old is Sudan? .[/quote]Sudan is about 10,000 years old. Please land quickly with what you have to say, I am very interested. Sorry to have jumped the gun, but I am impatient to hear what you've got to say. |

No rational person would want a web based OS. Except google have some security inovations, this thing is already doomed. Google software seems to always miss the point anyway. The whole thing sounds crazy, whats their kernel going to be? Linux? Or are they going to create one from scratch (incompatibilities will fry it quicker than it happened for Vista). |

fatezy:Nothing sounds stupid. ASP was microsofts first attempt at a web framework. It is now very outdated. The is little in common between ASP and ASP.NET apart from a couple of object names. They are totally different technologies, ASP basically is a scipting engine; you do not compile code into exe's or dll's, this makes it quite slow. With ASP, you also had to write every last bit oh HTML and VBScript (JavaScript). The improvements in ASP.NET are: 1. Compiled code (into exe's and dll's) offering much better performance 2. Programmable controls (you don't have to write every last bit oh HTML and code) 3. Markup is XML-based 4. ASP.NET comes with several ready built frequently used controls e.g. user authentication, file upload, banner rotation e.t.c. 5. Several built in security checks Look up (but don't get distracted by) the following ASP.NET attributes. 1. Event driven programming 2. object oriented consepts A good place to start learing ASP.NET is http://asp.net |

@huxley2 Well, this may be latin but their origin is JewishPeter and Paul have Latin origins, they have never been Jewish. In fact, the name and language that you think is your indigenous language (Igbo, Yoruba, etc) probably derives from some ancestral Bantu language.That's a diversion, I'm only saying colonised people bear the colonisers names because they want to seem to "belong". That's what I pointed out with your first list of names. Its worth pointing out again, that you won't find Jews born in Israel answering names like Peter and Paul because they've dealt with their colo mentality. |
huxley2:Apart from Abraham (likely of Sumerian ![]() I haven't seen any present day oyimbo answering Abraham who isn't Jewish. All the other names you mentioned aren't Jewish: James is Latin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_(name) - derived from Hebrew Jacob Peter is Latin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_(first_name) Paul is Latin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_(name) Latin names were prevalent in pre-Christian Judea because of colonial mentality (they were under Roman occupation). Modern Isreali Jews don't answer these names. |

Obama's name are African (except for Hussein) "Obama" is a name from the Luo ethnic group of southwestern Kenya, where Barack Obama, Sr. was born. It was originally the given name of Barack Obama's great-grandfather. It is based on the Luo (technically, Dholuo, the name of the language of the Luo) word bam, which means "crooked, slightly bending." The prefix O- means "he," and many Luo male names begin with it. Since most traditional Luo names were given by the baby's mother referring to something about the child's birth, the best guess is that when Obama's great-grandfather was born, one of his arms or legs looked slightly bent. However,Email rumors have charged that U.S. President Barack Obama is a practing Muslim, a rumor that has since been proven false. However, President Obama does have an unusual name, which reflects his African Muslim heritage. He was reportedly named after his father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. The president's first name, Barack, is a Swahili name that has its origins in Arabic. The original Arabic root of the name (B-R-K) means "blessed." In Arabic, the root word is used in many other phrases to denote blessings and to describe people who are blessed: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_meaning_of_the_name_%27Obama%27 |

Loosen up a little. Its the male thing thats cropping up. You've got to realise that all her plans are about the day she commits to sharing her life with you. Women have a more socially involved way of doing things than men (e.g. shopping is not a military task; door, buy toothpaste, buy lotion. . . door). You have to get used (and sometimes participate) in her more sensual way of navigating life. Good luck, happy married life!!! ~~~cracks open champagne for una ~~~ |

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=295085.msg4170811#msg4170811 date=1247322510]I hope you're aware Barak once changed his name to Barry? Dont confuse his I can bet you that as barry, he would have at most ended up as a non-executive, senior staff member in some none-descript firm. Being true to your identity creates a projection of strength. |

I have a friend dating this guy called Dominic they were on the bridge of becoming lovers and they couldnt keep things from each other anymore so turned out this guy's original name is sanjo and she was actually turned off by his name, and everything concerning him just din't appeal to her anymore and they finally broke up today. so made me think about how uncool our names can be sometimes. but some parent aswell just name their kids anyhow, new couple just had a baby and her name is prayer I dont know about you but geez i love to pray and it's good but naming a child one is just crossing the line when she starts school in this english community the name will raise few brows. i also remembered a woman where i used to live also had a child called jesu-gbeshumi (jesus swalloed satan) in this london is this not a little over the top?The babe simply didn't want to have anything to to with a fake, low self esteem, colo mental guy. Form Obasanjo to freaging sanjo and then from sanjo to Dominic. Tufia! Your friend needs to give you the treatment next i also remembered a woman where i used to live also had a child called jesu-gbeshumi (jesus swalloed satan) in this london is this not a little over the topClowns like you wouldn't have voted for[b] Barak Obama[/b].

My heart goes out to you. Life needs balance. I don't know what your current circumstances are, but its clear that that something is forcing you out of synch with your inner self. Why do you use the Internet so much? What about friends and family? I hope you don't mind, but do you have brothers and whats your relationship with your dad like? You should really go out a bit more and form human to human relationships. |
Yuno:It could also be because there is more affinity for Ghana in the diaspora, but don't discount these: [list] [li]Corruption and lack of developmental institutions[/li] [li]Nigeria snubbed the US proposals for Africa command[/li] [li]For the cynical, Ghana recently discovered vast quantities of oil[/li] [li]Niger Delta crisis[/li] [/list] In short 9ja's plate is too full. |
