Good domain names has nothing to do with their linguistic or sound or beauty or meaning, it...it is all about your ability to sell the name and the brand accompanying it...

Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Unveils Homemade Stealth Fighter Jet (Pictures & Video) by linearity: 4:02pm On Feb 03, 2013
Iran is making the same mistake that Saddam made before Iraq was over powered....When the rumors were building up that Iraq have WOD, initially Saddam did not denied them.

He felt that the impression in the media that Iraq have WOD will discourage an invasion from the West, after-all who want to invade a Country with chemical & biological weapons that can paralyze and kill invading army within seconds....This was his big mistake. Had he owned up and denied that his Country have WOD and invited the press into Iraq, the whole world would have seen the impending invasion as a cover, the media outcry against such invasion would have stopped it...especially if Iraq would have taken those same photos and sketch that Colin Power presented to the UN and take the media to those locations and expose the lies of the west. This effort would have aided efforts and protest within the US at that time and each congressman would have been pressured by the citizens in their districts, with this...I doubt if Congress would have voted to authorize President Bush to go to war with Iraq.

Here, Iran is showing off as some kind of 'superpower' and weighing a proxy war with the US. They just showed a jet on display in a hanger on rotors and a video of an old jet flying in this sky and this somehow suppose to scare the USA or the Israelis?

This will more than anything feed into that theory that Iran is amassing weapons to invade Israel and to keep faith with the pronouncements of the Iranian President, 'annihilate Israel'.

It is ignorance and stupidity that makes the rat to fight the cat.

Countries that have NUKE do not display them, they do not need to show off, only people and country who have nothing employs showmanship....Pakistan have NUKEs, despite repeated drone airstrikes from the US, invasion of their terrorist by the US to capture and kill OBL and almost daily border breaches by the US amry... the Pakistan government talk tough but never displayed their NUKEs or weaponry against the US, because they know that, their NUKEs not withstanding, though they might start a war with the US and win some battles against the US...but when the war is over, they will be worst off than the US...Yes, the US have aids to Pakistan...They have some type of aids to virtually all countries in the world including Afghanistan, Jordan, Palestine, Syria, etc and even Nigeria and they would more than willing to establish an aid program with Iran to maintain peace with Israel just like they have an aid program with Empty to maintain the peace treaty with Israel.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: West Brom Suspends Odenwingie From Training by linearity: 4:54am On Feb 03, 2013
In retrospect, was not a wise decision for Keshi to have excluded him from the Eagles squad to AFCON '13?

His wife gave birth on 1/20/13.....he was fighting up to the last minute to be transferred to QPR before the transfer closing window of 1/31/13.

All these are enough to cause distraction for him had he been in the Eagle's squad...at the end, it appeared that things worked out well for all parties....He was by his wife's side to welcome his baby boy into the world, was able to pursue his transfer and the Eagle's Coaching crew got what they wanted....

Nairaland GeneralRe: Today's Date Is A Palindrome - 31 / 1 / 13 by linearity: 3:43pm On Jan 31, 2013
@OP, you did not quite lay the case why 01/31/2013 written in MMDDYYYY format is a Palindrome.....

A Palindrome is a word, phrase or sentence, when reversed or spelled backward without regard to punuctition, comma or word unit results in the same word, phrase or sentence...eg

Civic, Radar, Level, Rotor, Kayak, etc...or 'Dammit, I'm mad'

There is no way to read 01/31/2013 backward and arrive at the same date without excluding some numbers...let see

01312013 backward is 31021310, you can see where you are wrong.

The only way January 31, 2013 can be written to be a Palindrome is if written in DDMYY or DD/M/YY format.

Christianity EtcRe: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by linearity: 8:52am On Jan 26, 2013
aletheia: So you actually think Christians know a lot less than many atheists about the Bible &c? I believe you flatter yourself. You know nothing about God's purposes. And yes, unless you believe that Jesus is He, you will die.
I think the foundation of the Christian faith is "believing is seeing" which is call faith, but others outsides the christian folds prefer "seeing is believing". You kind of confused information with knowledge, all one need to be a christian is to get the information that Christian dies for his sins and that individual will have to proceed to confuse his/her sins and believe that he or she is saved. You did not need the knowledge or understand that your sins are forgiven, you just believe that they have been forgiven and move on.

Knowledge is not required to be save....e.g. if I inform you that Salt is sweet when you put it in your mouth, as a Christian, you have to believe that without tasting it, without doubting it, you have to believe that it is true as reported...that is not knowledge, it is information and that is all you need to be saved...but to have the knowledge that salt is sweet, you must taste it, reach out your hand into the salt and put it in your mouth....that is knowledge...

Remember Thomas? When he was given the information that Jesus have risen, he did not believe....he needed to reach his hands into his piece ribs...Thomas was in essence saying the information that Jesus is risen is not enough for him...he need knowledge, he need prove, he has to test that information out and see if it pans-out....When Jesus appeared to them, Thomas was chastise because of his unbeliever and was given the opportunity to get the knowledge that he seeks but Jesus said 'blessed are those who did not see but believed"....

Did you remember the first Pentecost? As the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles and they started speaking in unknown tongues....The Bible said the people having heard their voices gathered and were confused as to what was happening....they did not understand or have knowledge of what is going on, but that not withstanding, they repented and were saved, because they heard the apostles speaking in their native languages about the wonderful things of God....All they got before repenting was information, they had no knowledge and no understanding....

Now, after becoming a christian, the Bible admonishes us to seek knowledge in other to prove ourselves.

Disclaimer:
I am a Christian, and if you think about it critically, want the OP wrote is on point in many levels...
CelebritiesRe: Google Billionaire Seen Riding On New York City Subway by linearity: 11:41pm On Jan 25, 2013
obi2012: there guy has helicopters and two boeing 747's.. i dont think he was riding the subway to avoid toll or traffic... he could have easily hopped in one of his helicopters.. grin
Yea right! he will hop on his helicopter or boeing 747 from his office say in SOHO to the Bronx for a meeting, park it in the corner and hop on it again to Tribeca to meet a client for another meeting, before hopping on it finally back to the office or back home.....Lagos is not as dense as NYC, but I do not hear of Mike Adenuga, even if he wants to...hopping on an helicopter from Marina to Ikoyi for a business meeting....It is not just practical.

The most practical thing to do is to either land in the airport or a closer airport-hanger and hit the traffic with your car....while you are doing all that, the guy on the train have reached his/her destination and will be able to fit in a day, more business assignments that requires in person consultations than you.

Another thing is that, some of these guys are "earth friendly" or want to pass themselves out as such in order to meet certain public image or to aid their business enterprise and the less carbon footprint they leave behind in their trails, the better it is for them.

maninmood: Before you start glorifying that white mogul, have a deep comprehension of the piece posted by the OP- he is undoubtedly undergoing a research experiment, and probably that wass the best environment( dependent variable) for him to perform such experiment in order to get a better result of his 'invention'.
False! If you ride the subway, you will rob shoulders with many many CEOs on a daily bases.....It is the norm rather than the exception because it is easier and faster to dodge the traffic by using the Subway or MTA buses.

Try getting out Manhattan after work via your car to say Queens; the share amount of traffic plus the high toll you have to pay will convince you immediately that taking the train is a wiser decision and better decision...You pay at least about $50.00 (about $20 for toll plus another $30.00 or more to park your car) each day if you drive to work in NYC but a subway round trip might only cost you $4.00....plus you save on time, gas, wear and tear, frustration, etc...

honeric01: lol you're funny, always under-estimating the chinese, you need to read up about china, americans hardly put 10 words together without china being mentioned. Read comments from americans, read bro, yahoo, al jazerra, fox, cnbc, mbs, cnn, e.t.c, listen to real americans. You do not talk about someone without influence. Can't shout bro.
I think you are confusing China's economy power with that of their military.

Each time any American mention China it is relative to the fact that one third of all foreign held US bonds are held by China and conversely majority of China exports are to the US...both Countries need each other for a peacefull economic stability.

But war does not consider economic stability, instead each Nation will try to use the war to her economy advantage, so if war broke out and China and the are on the oppposite sides, those bonds held by the Chinese will not be a consideration or determination, the US will prevail.

solomon111: Navy protecting you from Nuclear missiles?
Lol.
You must not have heard about the US ballistic missile interceptors.....

The US have the ability to shot down those missiles before they reach their intended destination even if the destination is the US, the missile and its war head will more likely land in the sea than reach the US main land and the Navy can do that.

Another side note, NK's long range missiles cannot reach the US, so the threat to US is very remote at this time except letting those weapons slip into the hands of terrorist organizations.

Rich4god: And so what.... Why are Nigerians so obsessed about english. Is English our mother's tongue?. I could remember, during my IT days in one of the Nigeria Breweries plant, the brewery manager cant even speak english let alone speaking with error, but he was the number one man at the brewery and perfoming his duties perfectly. So i really dont know what we Nigerians see in another man's language.
It's a Shame for you to make these lame excuses....let me ask....can you write eloquently in your mother's tongue? Many of us speaks and understands our mother's tongue but were not tutored at School in that language, except maybe in grade school. The only Language most of us can claim some mastery of, is the English Language and it is a shame to take cover under our "mother's tongue".

...And you forgot to mention that the Brewery Manager you referred to, was not tutored in English Language like yourself......and unlike you chances are, he writes eloquently in his mother's tongue.

Just like your pigin the above is a qualified question and an appropriate answer, despite the absence of 'Yes' in front of the answer.
