Now that's just wrong

Old Glory:
Please forgive me, but who is Pat Utomi?

He's a Nigerian economist, very intelligent, became a Phd holder at a very young age I beleive. I think he now lectures at the Lagos business school. A google search will bring up more info

sade511:
I knew what you meant .

chinani:
I knew the issue was a weight but I did want to go on my agenda. Sorry.

Ah yes, the conniving women

chinani:
Forgive me?

No qualms

chinani:
Hausas, tell me what you eat? Fofo (garri) like the rest of us? Are y'all kosher? Thanks.

Didn't see that much garri up there, more corn, millet and rice though. Not kosher either, but there are restrictions on the kind of meat and the way it should be killed though. I believe the word is halal.

Yep there are christians, but most areas generally shutdown around midday Friday.

chinani:
Truly. I don't see why one public thong is better than the other!

sade511:
Me neither.

um, let me put it in a context you might understand. Its not entirely about the thong. Imagine Cedric the entertainer and Tyrese with their shirts off. One is probably more appealing than the other.

akay47:
21 teams registered and i am drawing a chart for double-elimination tournament; i am finding it difficult to fix the 21st eam as a bye-team.

What do you mean double-elimination?

I'm assuming that means two knock-out rounds before the final. That means you need 8 teams out of 21. You can try 7 groups of 3 teams each, with the winner qualifying and the 21st team joining at the 1/4 final stage. Leaving you with 8 teams.

If you have problems picking the bye-team. Go for the defending champion if there is one or have a draw. chikena

davidylan:
Nuclear weapons are stored in missile bunkers or silos and not armories where conventional millitary hardware are stored so there is not the likelihood of a mistaken explosion.

um, the issue with missiles is not development/creation of the weapons. Its maintainance. You either have a solid or liquid missile propellant. With solid it has a lifespan after which it develops cracks and is dangerous. With liquid on the other hand you cannot keep the missiles permanently fueled, the liquids are extremely corrosive. Hence the possiblity for accidental spills and the like.

With the nuclear warheads however the problem is the propensity for accidents during creation, and we have a very bad emergency reaction procedure. Even in the US we had 3-mile island, and lets not forget Chernobyl. Granted these were civilian plants but it illustrates the danger with radioactive accidents.

davidylan:
It's impossible to build nuclear weapons with all the facilities required and not be able to put up missile silos.

Yes we have incredible scientists but you will not have scientists at every missile silo installation, and systems fail at the most inopportune moments. We all remember the Jesse fire disaster, and the explosions at the armoury in Lagos. Your argument make it seem as if these systems are inert druing creation and deployment. They are not, it simply takes a chemical imbalance or electronic failure to trigger a fatal chain reaction.

kimba:
ive always viewed racism as a state of the mind, thats on the part of the person being discriminated against.

chinani:
O.K. now how does this realate to interracial dating & marriage?

Taking a guess here.
I think he's referring to the fact, that an inter-racial relationship is seen as different or something to be discussed because of the mindset of the person/individuals in the relationship. Essentially he's saying mixed relationships are only an issue because those in the relationship make an issue of the race of their partner.

However, it is definitely arguable that seeing racist hostility against your relationship where it does not exist comes from prior occurences. i.e. "The whole world is against us" mentality.

As I see it as long as human beings see something as different, inter-racial relationships will always be fodder for discussion. People will only stop taking notice when Mulattos represent a large chunk of the human race.

um, you forgot the most important. It should do what the Software specifications/requirments state. You should add easy maintainance and extensibility to that list.

davidylan:
South Africa is already among the 9 nations with nuclear arms.

erm, RSA does not have nuclear weapons. They did have them, about a dozen warheads I think, but the program was scrapped and the NPT signed about 15 years ago.

The nine nuclear powers are
China
France
India
Israel - suspected, denied
North Korea - Claimed, unverified
Pakistan
Russia
UK
USA

mrlawng:
@everyone
Dont get me wrong I don't believe success is environmental like I said in my earlier posts it depends on the individual. All i am saying is There are a lot of Nigerians here that are making it big. If you have a legal status and you have your stuff together. I don't see why you wouldn't make it.

Good job putting that out there.

um,

I beleive this is where lordimpaq got his list from.

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/columns/story?id=366543&root=england&cc=5901

I actually think SWP was not given a chance to play. Some other players on the list got playing time and did not perform.

Looks like voting can continue

Ajisafe:
illegal to have church services in saudi arabia why?

Can I go build a mosque inside Vatican? Answer me.

I don't particularly wish to join this debate but I may have the answer to that.

The Vatican has a resident population of about 900, mostly clergy, priests, nuns and the swiss guard. I don't beleive any of them is muslim. Hence the absence of a mosque. There is no need for one. There is no law however that says a mosque cannot be built. In the surrounding city, Rome, there is at least one mosque.
