the game is in Abuja? End of the day for those miniature squirrels from Sierra Leone.

Ibime:

How can you play Les Ferdinand and Cavenaghi in central midfield with Redondo on the left? You are not serious.

And where are Manuel and Gelson Fernandes that you could easily slot into midfield? Or Fernandao you can play as a playmaker?

So far, this is the most ridiculous team submitted.

Haba oga Ibime! I totally skipped both manuel and nelson.
Didnt Redondo play on the wings for Brazil?

KAG:

Yes, and protocells do have a very basic and proto-genetic (though untransferable) regulator of amino acids. Fox's protocells do meet the basic technical considerations of life which constitute of: respiration, reproduction, the need for some form of nutrition, growth, movement to at least a small extent, irritability, and excretion. They accomplished those.

The protocells you describe above are none existent. The proto-genetic regulator of amino acids you mention is perhaps refering to RNA polymerase which was not present in Fox's microspheres.

I'm not sure you truly understand Fox's work. Fox designed MICROSPHERES or protein protocells. Unlike the protocells you describe above, his can only grow and undergo diffusion. His protocells cannot respire, do not possess the capacity for nutrition, do not move and have no capacity for irritability or excretion.

Protocells are theoretical ideas of what a cell would have been like at the begining, no working model has been developed yet in any lab.

KAG:

It hearkens back to what was shown by the Miller-Urey experiments: amino acids can be formed spontaneously.

Did you know that Miller's experiments without the use of a cold trap failed to generate any amino acids?
Did you know that Miller's experiments showed that amino acids are very unstable and needed to be removed immediately by the cold trap method? A clear indication that they do not form spontaneously.
Did you also know that Miller could only generate 3 out of 20 amino acids - - - most predominantly glycine which isnt really required for life?

There are many flaws in Miller's experiments - Methane and ammonia are quite rare in the atmosphere so his "primitive atmosphere" idea is wrong. Why did he not use atmospheric N₂ as his nitrogen source?
- For his experiment to work he needed a high concentration of all gases in a confined space, that is not physiologically possible.

zayhal:

Few days ago, I suggested you devote time to God, praying to Him, DIRECTLY, fervently and with all sincerity, all you did was mock what I said with davidylan.

Since islamic prayers are only said in arabic how shld Idupaul go about this above nonsense?

find and download utorrent. Its fast and easy for a jjc.

When you go to torrent sites, download the torrent of ur choice (it usually is a very small file). On the utorrent screen simply click file and then add torrent. Your torrent shld then download and save your file usually in the downloads folder under "my documents". You can choose a destination folder if you want.

The most important thing with torrent download is the number of seeders (those hosting the file for download) and leechers (those downloading the torrent). the higher the seeders:leechers ratio the faster your download.

any scrabble players willing to play?

no shaking. come sunday i dey here kampe.

What about weekly bible study?

lol mohammad wasnt born until the 1400 AD, the quran came 300 yrs later. Prior to that the bible had recorded the use of bows and arrows, spears, coat of mail and chariots.
these muslims make you wonder sometimes.

zayhal:

I won't invite you to my place of worship nor direct you to a 'man of God' for prayer and counselling. Do it yourself. Commit yourself to God, surrender yourself to Him, ask Him for guidance. Do these in all sincerity without bias. I tell you, He'll definitely come to your aid.

Zayhal's words make me realise how very close we are to the end time.
A neutral observer would be forgiven if he thought Zayhal was actually a christian with the clever/deceitful way she framed the above.

1. Place of worship - when did this become a muslim phrase?
2. Man of God - Really? Muslims now use this term too? It wasnt so less than 10yrs ago . . . what changed?
3. Prayer and counselling - In the mosque now? wow.
4. Commit yourself to God, surrender yourself to him - how subtly has "christian speak" been co-opted into islam now to make it sound palatable.

The devil indeed has transformed himself to an angel of light. IduPaul be very careful.

Eliminate you ke? abeg teacher teach us o, we are itching to learn.

Ruby_Pearl:

Ugh. . . . .Father Lord, am begging you.
Do not give me a useless Naija man

Amen!

Possibly for a medical reason? If i had to choose between my wife having a baby and possibly suffering complications and an abortion i'd choose to abort.

i dont know anything, i'd prefer to learn at thy footstool.

Can we explain this thread with satellite images pls?

Where's the sunday school teacher?

abeg make dem open that sunday school thread o. i wan learn from "pastor" chris.

KAG:

Passing on genetic material is the basis for continuing life, not life itself. To that effect, Fox's protocells meet the most basic and technical considerations for what constitutes life - including reproduction.

That is not true. You need genes to create the proteins essential for life. If you deleted certain genes from a cell it will cease to exist not because it cant reproduce but because it cannot generate the required mechanisms for life.
Hence Fox's protocells do NOT meet the basic considerations for what constitutes life.

KAG:

Spontaneously

From what? How do perfectly created amino acids just spontaneously appear? If you believe proteins spontaneously appear then i wonder why creationism is such a huge impossibility to you.

maybe he can post a satellite image here.

oya fly away with ur generalizations.

plus_Queen:

and you is a maverick!

I'm just a joe six pack _{of dansani water}

spikedcylinder:

I read the topic and the first few pages. Did you?

I'm not sure you understood the topic. Posters arent "judging", they are simply giving an opinion about whether they choose to spend the rest of their lives with a human chimney or not.
Funny how you on one hand advocate that smokers have a right to their lifestyle and then accuse others of judgement for simply expressing a different opinion.

the number of self righteous prigs here is rising.

jennykadri:

that is ehn,its been so long i tied ashebi

david make una do quick,i need to wear one soon

Dont worry, very soon you will come and eat rice. After that i will resign from nairaland forever.

tRoOE:

[size=13pt]I go elbow u now

I just dey follow ur footsteps o . . .

plus_Queen:

so morenike and david eh kwa?
to God be the glory

Na end of the film "to God be the glory" dey appear. My own film of life just dey start abeg . . .
You people and your active imaginations . . . allow a man to enjoy himself o jare.

Besides . . . we are both not smokers! Oya back to topic.

tRoOE:

[size=13pt]I was just teasing him jare, i knew that was her

abi oh my sister, i no he dey enjoy the front well, but 4 de back i no fit say since i never seen am lol i need to stop[/size]

sharrap dia!!!

spikedcylinder:

Smokers aren't exactly my cup of tea but each to their own eh?
They have the right to choose what they do to their lungs/kidneys. . . .etc without other people who supposedly have clean lungs breathing down their faces in judgment .

I think you'd be wise to read the topic first before making silly comments.

jennykadri:

that babe looks like a nl,anyways na now i dey convinced say u like curvy and well loaded babes

_{lol always have always will . . . and you're right about the first part.}

tRoOE:

[size=13pt]The pic is disgusting looking, can you take if off[/size]

sorry dear, i thot some people needed a dose of realism. We cant see the lungs each one of us carries around within our ribcages so we sometimes love to go the "kini big deal" route when it comes to smokers.
