You sure that's a prison or some kind of rehab hostel? Looks ok... embarassed

Apart from 64 bit architechture and CPU processor, nowt major.

I was hoping for some groundbreaking innovation. They keep android manufacturers on their toes.
Open GL 3is standard on 4.3 android and improved cameras have been around already.

My gaze is on Sony as I've been most impressed with their latest smartphones.
Foreign AffairsRe: Russia ask syria to surrender chemical weapons, syria accepts. by BlackBaron: 8:50pm On Sep 09, 2013
Same rhetorical ultimatum was given to Saddam. Only he never had any chemical stockpiles whilst Assad certainly has. Handing over all your chemical stocks in a week is almost near impossible.

Lest the American government forgets, their chemical weapons campaign (Agent Orange) in Vietnam still reverberates today. Only difference is no one can of course hold them to ransom.

Foreign AffairsRe: Leaked Video Of Syrian Rebels Firing Sarin Gas. by BlackBaron:
That's an improvised rebel artillery piece with the typical hybrid gas cylinder payload/warhead called the 'Hell Canon'.

Besides the timeline of the Ghoutta attacks was put at between 1 - 3 am local time. You'd have to pull an houdini act to convince me that video was shot in the am.

Lots of heavy propaganda on Liveleaks from both sides mate. Learn to separate facts from fiction.

I can't believe you said this. Do you still remember that majority of the south west people and northerners put all their hope on APC?, which means they put their hopes on thieves grin grin grin grin that's too bad and a hopeless situation for them all.
From APC to PDP. Jonathan to Tinunbu. Na the same mama born them all. Not even your President declared his assets publicly.

Their aim is to launder enough money for their unborn generations and throw the remaining change at you the citizens.

Sony Xperia Z1

Both look impressive, but does Samsung have any iota of creativity in product design... Saying that the Note 3 stands out cue the stylus. Whilst the Z1 is King in camera and comes waterproof as a standard feature.

Nigeria is like the harbinger of all bs.

What's the assoication between Nigerian and Egyptian politics. Why not rally against Boko Haram.

Here's another video I came across 2 weeks ago with Hezbollah esque elements with the obligatory defilement of Israeli and American flags. The oddity there is their imitation of a BB's band complete with mace and a drum major.

PoliticsRe: Yoruba, Igbo And Media Warriors By Olusegun Adeniyi by BlackBaron:
russellino: I'm old enough to remember the daughter Modupe Adelaja a then minister under OBJ and daughter of late yoruba leader say "ibos should stick to their spareparts business". She said it at a speech on armed forces remembrance day. Which igbo leader has ever come out to spit such dirty venom about the yoruba race. Who called her to order in yorubaland? Nobody

As for OUK I can't find that statement anywhere o! I honestly believe its propaganda but I stand to be corrected. But let's say he did is that enough for all the slime hurled at the igbo race? It happened when achebe made a statement about awolowo's war policies and it is happening again. Igbos in general are being abused and by generality of yorubas. Do you know how many moderate igbos are being converted to radicals and bigots by all this?
Obj's daughter is hardly a leader. But yes I'll accept that.

Besides it only shows the calibre of the collection of leaders on both sides, they make the comments, but be rest assured their interests and their families would be far from harm. Its the common innocent man on the street that incurs the most losses.

Such as ...?
Say Afenifere which is akin to Ohaneze issued such comments?

russellino: No vex you haven't answered my question. Did YOU or anyone you know see the interview or statement where he was credited with the "no mans land" thing?
Not like he has denied it. Anyway the comment is right there on his twitter's timeline.

russellino: My genuine question and pressing question to you is that besides in e-fights on NL have u ever seen any igbo person in the media or real life refer to lagos as "no mans land". All I hear the bigots say is that igbos say it but WHO IN PARTICULAR has said it? I want to get to the bottom of something here
Erm...OUK ?

Besides, understandably igbos have invested heavily in Lagos, but other comments from Ohaneze like 'It is the Igbo that make Lagos what it is and without them Lagos State will go to sleep. In short, without Igbo, there will be no Lagos'. Don't forget there are equally other groups thriving in Lagos but no making such claims. Not to forget the snide 'amala' comnent. Every group got a part to play in Lagos as far as I can see from the Hausa down to others.

I really don't care if shite happens to tribalists on either side. All I care about are the innocents.
PoliticsRe: Yoruba, Igbo And Media Warriors By Olusegun Adeniyi by BlackBaron: 9:24pm On Aug 22, 2013
Seun's claim to fame would be building the largest forum in Africa, and his platform a frontrunner in the books of infamy for allowing all forms of ethnic diatribes possible on Mother Earth happen under his watch.

End of the day, there should be a consensus regarding application of Governors executive powers. Sacking non indigenes in your state (Abia state) or 'deporting' non indigenes (Lagos state) are just 2 sides of the same coin to me. Its also not easy to tell what decisions we might make if we were in government.

Those fanning trouble are safe in their enclaves far away from the events on grounds.

And eh, Lagos is indeed a home to all and entitled to all that comes with it. But desist from telling indigenes 'their land is no man's land', you are giving some evil ones a legitimate cause.

Of course, there's a few trade offs here and there in functionality but then its almost just as good as the Tasker.

The authorities have been aware of this for quite a long time now.

The anonymity offered by using the tor browser means its difficult to catch offenders, coupled to the unregulated virtual bitcoin currency for easy money laundering.

Tor network is a criminal den with loads of other vices not seen on the 'regular' internet.
