@ dachamp

Let's not get too sure that we would win, i only hope that African mentality of footballers being contented that they have won the match once you are leading an oyinbo team doesnt set in.
SportsRe: Nigera Vs Germany by lawyer(m): 11:53am On Sep 06, 2007
from the look of things, which european club will suit christantus pattern of play as a striker? From what i have seen, he has the hallmark of a poacher like inzaghi and also the positioning of van nisterooy, but not all that skillful as henry. Although i am an arsenal fan, i think Manutd will develop him faster

The german keeper's blunders remind me of Jens Lehmann, like father, like son, lol grin
SportsRe: Nigera Vs Germany by lawyer(m): 11:44am On Sep 06, 2007
these guys are very competitive unlike the other teams we have in Nigeria and if they continue, they might win the game, although the germans are more skillful, we need to use our gra gra African power to bully and frustrate them all
RomanceRe: Why Are Nigerian Men So Full Of Promises by lawyer(m): 4:36am On Sep 06, 2007
Nigerian women love to be lied to. They love to hear all the positives of life and shy away from the negatives. Which woman would like a guy that drives a beetle or 1980 santana? I once met a girl in Unilag and she was complaining that a boy with a shagari benz actually stopped in front of her and toasted her, she felt humilated and was just praising God that her bobo no de drive that kin rubbish when e de Naija. Meanwhile the bobo no de Jand but don relocate go anoda school because of confra yawa and the moto e de take impress am na im uncle own. Now if this girl knew this guy was a footwagon major, would she date him?, Abeg you girls stop ranting over things that are flowing in your blood! You love lies, you adore them and every Naija man would use this scope on you till the end of time! grin

CrimeRe: Can a Woman Rape a Man? by lawyer(m): 10:55pm On Sep 05, 2007
The criminal code does not make it possible for a woman to rape a man, but she can be charged for assault and battery or causing grievious bodily harm.

Also the criminal code in Nigeria does not yet provide for sexual harrassment but if he has evidence that he has been molested sexually, he can bring up the afforementioned charges against her

Christianity EtcRe: Roman Catholic Is Not A Church, But A Modernised Way Of Idolatry? by lawyer(m): 3:59pm On Sep 05, 2007
@pilgrim

I have to give up at this moment trying to convince you to be your brother's keeper no matter what he or she is spiritually inclined to. As long as its not disturbing the way you eat, sleep or pray, what does it matter to you. At least the Nigerian constitution provides for freedom of worship of whatever choice you choose. You can rant all day about catholics being idolatory in their form of worship, but it doesnt stop us from beleieving that there is only one true God and his son who died for our sins Jesus Christ. It doesnt matter whatever perspective or mode of worship we use to honour the lord but we all accept that Jesus christ is our saviour. What else do you want? Tomorrow we follow your idea and stop " idolizing" according to you, then you bring up another issue until your exhausted and we begin to follow your own creed and form of worship. We are not zombies and we have the right to follow what we believe in, no matter how you criticize, insult, stir up the embers of hate and antagonism that you have created on this forum. Pls grow up and spread the word and not spread hate. The annoying thing is that if you want people to pick holes in your own doctrine or church, why dont you boldly tell us the church you worship in and see what fellow christians that are not members of your church would say!, i hope your ready for the scrutiny and cross fire, if your dare bold to tell us where you worship. You want to turn us to shallow christians that have no respect for religious institutions, plz be my guest and bring it on tongue
TV/MoviesRe: TV Shows: Prison Break, Lost Or 24? by lawyer(m): 2:29am On Sep 05, 2007
the twists and turns in prison break is becoming more confusing than the original plot, from prison to escape to searching for westmores money to the government plot to assasinate scofield and linc burrows, would finally turn off viewers and at this rate, i dont forsee people anticipating to watch prison break if it even gets to its fifth season because the plot is being derailed.

But 24 follows real time events within 24 (1) episodes and once the season is over, you can be rest assured that a new season will bring something new for you to follow religiously. At this rate if the producers want to make 14 seasons of "24", they are well covered because more gadgets will be involved and more terrorists to manhandle.

@pilgrim

Ok if someone says he doesn't believe in God or the bible but he believes in science, reincarnation or simply in his shoes, do you have to castigate him for his beliefs? If you were born in the middle east, at this rate your talking, you would probably be a moslem fanatic or better still Al-Qaida and proclaiming fatwa for everyone that goes against your religious thoughts. Let us see what will happen at the end, not judge ppl at the middle.

You can quote the bible from genesis to revelation, but that doesnt make you more holier than the Azetecs of Mexico who still worship the sun. If you know your argument is so concrete, why dont you go to china or japan and tell them buddah worshipping is idolatory and see if you will come back with your head intact! tongue
SportsWhose Your Favourite Arsenal Player That Your Dying To Meet At The Moment by lawyer(op): 1:44am On Sep 05, 2007
Who is your favourite arsenal player presently and if you don't see him in the line up, you would probably lose interest in the match at first? To me, VAN PERSIE is the man i look forward to any time he plays for arsenal. I agree he is not a prolific goal scorer like henry but when he scores, CNN has to show his goals as the play of the day! He has such amazing and bewildering dribbling skills and has the most dangerous left foot in the business. I can bet if there was a poll to select the 100 most amazing goals ever scored in the premiership, he would have at least 3.

Christianity EtcRe: Roman Catholic Is Not A Church, But A Modernised Way Of Idolatry? by lawyer(m): 10:19pm On Sep 04, 2007
i have been reading your post from the first page and i think we have all got it wrong. I accept am catholic born and bred all through but i have to admit am not a fanatic of the church. I later got to realise that it's not what the church teaches or prophecies that we should do but what we actually believe in. 3000 yrs ago, there was no christianity and people still believed in a supreme being and how they paid homage to that being was within them and nobody else. Have you thought of the next 3000 years whether people would still believe in christianity? The point am trying to make is that you dont criticize people unecessarily about what they believe in. If they have actually commited a crime in your eyes for believing in something which is inexplicable to you, it is a moral crime and left for God to judge not you.

Actually, do we know whether the muslims are the chosen ones or Olumba Olumba or the people worshipping mami water? You might say the bible told me this and the bible told me that but if you look at the history of the bible, you would know that the bible was edited to suit various people who wanted the bible to look this way? People that believed in Magdalene and a host of others, but the point is judge you not because you dont know who is going to judge you, this is a very sensless topic that is capable of encouraging religious zealotry

Music/RadioRe: Stolen Song(2face Stole My Song) by lawyer(m): 5:28pm On Sep 04, 2007
ok, let me settle this issue for you jayon. The copy right rule if as follows:

1. If your in America, and you write a song, the lyrics are being protected. If you end up creating it through a medium such as a c.d, record or it is wriiten down, it is also protected. Now the main way for you to know if it is actually your idea is to do either of the 2:

a) either you register the songs and the finished work i.e your c.d with the copyright commission over there or

b) you use the poor man's test which means, the moment you finish the song through a medium of your choice either by writing it down or waxing it, you have to mail that work of yours to yourself and dont open it or mail it to your lawyer. this would act as a source of knowing when the work was actually created.

2. Now even if you dont do this, i guess since you have already been performing the songs, you might have heard of what they call music publishers. Music publishers are people who you licence your songs to, and they help you distribute it and pay you royalties for your songs whenever it is being played. One way or the other, if you claim that you actually performed this song, Music publishers such as ASCAP OR BMI, what ever one your affiliated to, would cover you and since Nigeria is a signatory to international copyright treaties, you can have a case of infringement on your works.

3. A further bonus could be if the lyrics and the melody are almost similar and you didnt licence both of them to 2 face to sample them, then you could sue for damages or account of profit made from the song and possibly claim royalties for the use of the songs

4. Fourthly, it's not 2face that your to sue but kennis music because the music contract out to provide that the songs 2 face is releasing under their label is free from default of copyright of another person's song and if he had done so, he would have gotten the required license to use your work. In return, Kennis music would have to sue 2 face for breaching certain elements of the contract.

5. Also as it affects OJB, It depends on if Ojb was hired by Kennis Music or it was 2 face that brought him in as a producer. This is important so as to know who to sue, cos under the law, you must know who to join as a party to the suit unless if you join the wrong party to the suit, you could be sued for misjoinder, so if you need more help give me a shout out, if your right, then you need to get your dues but if your wrong, you owe 2 face a hugh apology

TV/MoviesRe: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by lawyer(m): 2:40am On Sep 04, 2007
Am suprised that no one here has given George lucas or Francis Ford copola, their due credit. These 2 guys are legends and even the new kids on the block would lay testimony of the influences these guys had on their directorial careers. As for the comparison btw spielberg v scorscese, i'll take martin any day. His films are more realistic and tend to get the bottom of the story just like mel gibson is doing. Can you tell me what the moral of the story is in jaws, sugarland express and that stupid tom cruise movie, (can't remember the name again) that deals with precogs?

TV/MoviesRe: TV Shows: Prison Break, Lost Or 24? by lawyer(m): 2:16am On Sep 04, 2007
prision break is unique but c'mon the lies are getting too much, how long would a group of ppl escape from a prison in america and wont get caught, 24 too is also an exaggeration of the events of terrorism on American soil, but all in all season 5 of 24 is actually the bomb and kiefer sutherland was deservedly the winner of the best actor in a drama series during last year's golden globe awards.

As for lost, heroes, 4400, commander in chief, they are just watchable and i can't stand any of the reruns, but my favourite has to be footballers wives and one treehill
