LiteratureCartoons and Pictures That Make You Think by fiscalcliff(op):
I came across this cartoons and thought I'd share
However since this cartoons are more thought provoking, I thought to share them here rather than the jokes section
Enjoy

PoliticsRe: An Unbiased View Of The Lagos Deportation. by fiscalcliff: 7:36am On Aug 04, 2013
Many numerous anti Fashola threads sprang up from this issue which suddenly have a life force
Does anyone perceive 2015 national politics behind this huh
This issue has been blown out of proportion

[b]Was Anambra State not informed before hand from correspondences between then and LASG huh
Why did they freeze official correspondencehuh
Were other states from the North and West recipients of those relocated?
While Fashola and by extension the LASG should have handled this issue more circumspectly, why are the Ibos crying more than the bereavedundecided
Why are they making this appear as a targeted action at ONLY Iboshuh
Apart from Lagos (and if I recall well Kano) NO OTHER state in Nigeria has people from other tribes as serving commissioners (PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG)
Will a 'tribal' governor do that?
How come Ngige had the common sense to directly hear from Fashola on this matter but Obi lacks the sense of a goose in this regardundecided
Why take to newspapers to project the victims stories without hearing from the LASG officially?
Why did Obi petition the president rather than seek legal redress in the courts? Is Jonathan now a legal arbiter? Does this not point to political undertones? undecided
Whatever happened to hearing both sides of an issue before passing judgementundecided
I still agree this relocation could have been better handled,its very tardy as it was carried out[/b]

Yet truly as Fashola said,this outburst is not because of those dropped off at Anambra,rather it is about political ammunition for the coming state gubernatorial elections cool
TravelRe: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by fiscalcliff:
Staying near the campus is definitely a plus though some universities run free bus services which also would be of help
I get the housing part but enlighten moi (and by extension others) how the UK system works
I recall a thread on the UK where peoples lamented on many things, one of which was heating costs which spiked because the cold winter https://www.nairaland.com/1246083/god-forsaken-country-called-britain
So do you pay a steady electricity rate all year throughhuh


My budget is about £450-500 a month (small trips inclusive although spending could go north of this figure depending on the attraction cheesy)
Even though I'm coming to Britain to study,its a chance to do, see and be to/in places one has read about over the years
And also,say I get money for hand no mean say make oyinbo maga me to help spend am grin
Thanks for the clothing from Naija tip as I await the insights of others

I tend to flow with Adaobi's post in this regard
400 quid a month on housing,bills and food shocked
Mehn, spill on how you run things over in the UK cos it sounds incredulous shocked
Also could those post answer the second segment of my initial post (reproduced below) so as to aid those who may have similar questions
Thanks


Also Lakehay21 and those living in the northeast, how is clothes shopping like over there?
Is the prices decent enough (definitely would cost more than in Nigeria) that you won't spend to much electing to buy once over there?
Are there clothing shops over there which offer students discounts?
What other sectors offer similar rebates?
Any site or link you chaps will be kind enough to let us in on?
Thanks
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by fiscalcliff: 8:27pm On Aug 03, 2013
Hello UKBA gurus on this thread
My program lasts for 15 months (though there's a 3 month break embedded in those months)
My questions are how much need I show for my living expenses out of the London areahuh
£7200 (9 months), £9600(12months) or £12000(15 months) undecided
Also I'm leaning towards paying up ALL my tuition before applying
I believe this is a good move,or am I mistaken?
Thanks

Also do try and spend quality time on this thread regardless of the length esp the recent pages
There is hardly any tip an agent would proffer you won't see here
TravelRe: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by fiscalcliff: 7:20pm On Aug 03, 2013
Lakehay21: £400 is a lot of money... You should definitely survive on that per month.
Does this 400 include accommodationhuh
If yes,will it be that decent seeing from my online searches about 70-80 quid and above will fetch one decent housing
It could be cheaper when one is on ground to see it from another perspective though
But what of utility bills like Internet, electricity, water etc undecided
Especially electricity bills during the winter months
Can someone help break this down better for those who wouldn't opt for university provided housing?
Thanks

How long before one can see,feel, touch and smell their vaunted S1 phone?
The phone was announced early January now undecided
Hopefully it will be before 2015 ends
At least it should hit town before their Jiayu S2 -which is rumored to be an Octa core- drops on our laps

Nokia has ALWAYS been big not only in Nigeria but most developing nations e.g. India due to low and mid range offerings

About the ONLY sensible comment I've seen on this thread that has been invaded by the zombies of the husband of Okrika's Jesus Christ cool
Where was Okrika Jesus Christ and her husband when many a common man opposed the Army's tanks,guns and bullets with bare hands huh
Even at that where were this zombies when Ebele was reading newspapers as his job description in Aso Villa and washing Turai's undies shocked
Now because he's the President, others who nurse ambitions guaranteed under democracy and the constitution are traitors undecided
Hmmn!
PhonesRe: Tecno Phantom A+ Discussion Thread by fiscalcliff:
Wack specs
Compare Tecno specs against Chinese made Driods and see that their specs lag behind talk less of comparison with name brands

Is Seun pushing Nigerians to patronize sub par products or is he a shareholder in Tecnohuh
Technology MarketRe: Pipo Max M9 3G Tablet Unboxing: Pre-order delivery by balogunsam to fiscalcliff by fiscalcliff(op): 9:41am On Jul 30, 2013
This tablet is truly amazing
Lately,I've been seeing some glitches whist using my Max M9
However,I must add I hardly switch it off
Could constant non refreshing of the Max's memory (through switching off and on) be the cause,I know not undecided
Thus I thought to rerun the Antutu tests to check if performance had degraded and to my greatest surprise saw it was consistent even far better than the initial result I ran about 6 weeks back shocked
While I'm yet to root or overclock it,what this tablet needs is better software optimization to really blow up
Too bad Pipo lags greatly in this regard undecided

Technology MarketRe: Pipo Max M9 3G Tablet Unboxing: Pre-order delivery by balogunsam to fiscalcliff by fiscalcliff(op):
Dr. Dre:
Good day sir. Quite interested in the Pipo Max9. I've been trying to compare it with the Cube before now. Nice to see there's a FHD version now. Do you have a link to it on any site where it is being sold? I've tried to checked around briefly but seems it's your type that keeps coming up. Thanks
Apologies Dre for just replying
Just saw your post
I too saw the Cube (said to also use Rockchip's Quadcore) which is said to have a slightly build quality but the price diff on sites was sorta wide
I believe $50-60
That apart Pipo Max is quite compact compared to other 10.1 inchers
No I don't have the link, just saw the story which broke on gizchina
It could be that its still in production or about shipping from Pipo's factory
Yet apart from not been FHD,every other thing is as it should be
Played the mini HDMI bout 2 weeks back with a 720p and it was loud as #*¢$℅© (1080p videos play seamlessly too on this machine)
That apart it effortlessly fit my LCD TV's 1920*1200 screen resolution
If what you seek is a FHD tablet earlier,be prepared to wait a little longer cheesy
Also recall,I didn't source it myself as the title of my thread indicates
Wish the best in your Pipo quest though
