Let me just leave this here. Spartacus has nothing on this.

Great Houses of Westeros. Abode. Sigil. Words.

House Arryn - The Eyrie / The Vale - Moon and falcon,white upon a sky blue field - "As high as honour"

House Baratheon ( Youngest of the Great Houses) - Storm's End - Crowned stag, black on a golden field -" Ours is the fury"

House Greyjoy - Pyke - Golden kraken upon a black field -" We do not sow"

House Lannister - Casterly Rock - Golden lion upon a crimson field - "Hear me Roar"

House Martell - Sunspear - Red sun pierced by a golden spear - "Unbowed, unbent, unbroken"

House Stark - Winterfell - Grey direwolf on an ice white field - "Winter is coming"

House Targaryen (Oldest of the Great Houses) - Dragonstone - Three headed dragon, red on black [the three heads representing Aegon the conqueror and his 2 sisters (and wives)]. - Fire and blood

House Tully - Riverrun - A leaping trout, silver on a field of rippling blue and red - Family, Duty, Honor

House Tyrell - Highgarden -Golden rose ona green grass field - Growing strong

These are just the Great Houses, 9 of them, meanwhile there are hundreds of minor and lesser houses like the House Frey etc. The level of intricacy and detail in Game of thrones is probably only exceeded by books/movies like Lord of the Rings. The genealogy of each house is provided in detail. Spartacus on the other hand...........................?

Are you shitting me? There is no way in the 7 kingdoms that you seriously believe Spartacus is better than Game of Thrones. Westeros is the creation from some one's mind while the arena is real history. No comparison there. Look at all the fantasy fiction out there: Lord of the Rings (+ the hobbit), Harry Potter etc. They are all epic. Spartacus, while good, is mostly blood and gore, building on from the success of 300.

Buy this and @ the end of the day it won't even fit you. A #5000 shirt might look far better on you. SMH

Gorimakpa: Sorry in case it has been already addressed earlier in this thread, but please, what is the difference between somonth and comonth? I subscribed for comonth for N1400, while I hear somonth is N1200. What is the difference in these two plans, or is it just to dash glo extra 200, and God knows i hate dashing any netweork any 1 kobo.

Somonth is the social blackberry package that has only chat services like bbm, aim, gtalk, yahoo messenger + email, no browsing (I think) while the comonth has all the chat apps + browsing.

I don't know why some people take criticism of celebrities personal. No one is hating on them. Yes, artists these days take elements and inspiration from other artists. The problem starts when you have a particular person mixing and matching elements from several artists to make their songs. I personally like the song, copied or not (who REALLY cares coz at the end of the day,they are making their money) but my 1st reaction to the video was that the dance was copied from Natasha's Sidekick.

TL:DR P-Square copy a lot.

Who are all these people just either staring at or walking past the cars? Dear Lord!! I would have slobbered all over those cars, licking them from spoiler to bonnet, sideskirt to roof. I love cars.

Glo all d way.

Why is no one mentioning kart games?Mario Kart rocks!!

I'll never forget how Midnight Club 2 frustrated me but looking back, I realise that I LOVE it.Its great having a good challenge (no not Halo's legendary mode).Burnout 3:Takedown was also good even though I didn't like Burnout 4(?):Revenge. To me NFS is just "meh",stopped being good a long time ago (porsche unleashed/challenge).

There is always a favourite,even if they never publicly admit it.As for moi,my pop has 3 wives but just 2 of us,me and my elder stepsister.I grew up with my mum while she grew up with my pop and her mum.To me its very clear that she's his favourite 'cos he doesn't really know me, coupled with the fact that when I was young and visited,I was extremely rough and stubborn.Now that I actually spend more time with him he's warming up to me but his heart lies with my sis.

For me it all comes down to the basics.The ©TOILET™ is mans greatest invention ever.Imagine living in a city where you had to drive 50 miles just to take a dump.That's a terrifying proposition.

As someone who stutters(/stammers) and also grew up with acne,you can imagine how introverted I'd be. Also constantly moving around didn't help(I haven't finished any level of school in 1 place).But despite all that,I think I actually came out quite balanced.I don't always relish parties but I went to 4 over the holidays and met plenty of people at the carnival.

I was once invited to a party where truth or dare featured heavily and I was quiet throughout.People even coined a mode 4 me due to the silence.Later on I got to gisting with one of the girls and I could see the shock on her face.Later on she told all her friends and they didn't believe that I could be so funny and expressive.

Na by force?

How much is the torch?

jackpot:
sorry, but are you targetting a Prof to kidnap?
How much to demand as a ransom?

Lol :-) Kidnap? Ransom? If i had that kinda mind,i'll stand on the road with an Ak47. I just wanted an idea of how much they earned.

Just want to know (on average) how much lecturers earn.In particular,a Professor who has been H.O.D. and Dean of Engineering.Thanks all.

Shocked 2 hear that glo performs poorly where you are.Network performance is based on location so the more congested your neighbourhood is, the worse the performance.Where i am (Makurdi),Glo is the best,followed by etisalat while airtel and mtn belong to the depths of tartarus.3.5g to boot.Made a 87 minute skype call 2 days ago to US via Glo 3.5g and there was no break or stuttering.Thats how reliable they are for ME.

I'm so getting a blackberry to complement my n8.Glo rules.Simples.

Ps. Hope they update their Always packages and include more data allowance.Imagine if they introduce #1000 Always micro with 500mb and/or #3000 Always macro with 3gb. I believe that we are seeing the benefits of the glo-1 cable here.
Everyone repeat after me,Competition favours customers.

Alrite, Thanks.I'll try it again next week when my always micro subscription finishes. Crossing my fingers.

Ok but I wanted to know if it has to be a single #1000 recharge card or multiple #500 cards coz i haven't been offered even 5mb despite my bi-monthly always micro subscriptions.Any pointers?

Does anyone have any info on glo's free up to 200mb on recharges of #1000 and above? First saw it about a month back when i wanted to subscribe for always micro but due to the fact that i loaded #500 cards i took it that it applied to single cards of #1000 and above.Fast forward to last week and i hunted for #1000 cards (they are kinda scarce) but even then i didn't get anything.

Tl:dr Is there anything special i need to do in order to activate the free 200mb?

Called quicksilver customer care yesterday via skype and the 15 minutes i spent on the phone were my most pleasurable interaction with customer care in my life (and i've lived in London).Informing me of her actions every step of the way. On the other hand, GTB ( the other party involved ) were quite dismissive. Not rude, just indifferent.

Whoa!!!!I was arguing this same thing with my neighbour the other day.He was of the opinion that PES curb stomps all over FIFA but after i broke everything down for him, with a detailed comparison between the PS3 and Xbox360 versions,he saw things differently.

In its time Pro 6 was the greatest game in the world but since FIFA 09, EA have it all in the dufflebag.Teamplay,dribbling,player runs,pass accuracy,''finesse shot modifier'',penalties,in fact i don't have anything else to say.

I only have one thing to say right now.MTN SUX, GLO RULES.*For me at least*
Just saw Glo 3.5G on my phone yesterday here in Makurdi.Suck on that,losers.

In calabar hostels in etta-agbor located close to Unical cost about 180k,while those around marian road are about 150k.Thats rent only, no generator,a.c etc.
In makurdi,for B.s.u 70k will get you a very spacious place.For UniAgric,d highest right now is 80k but there are a lot of ongoing building projects so the price might soon drop.No gen or a.c etc too.

Mikel is a very average player.
PROS.
Good passing
Strength on the ball
Disciplined in what he does

CONS.
Lacks speed
Inability to drive forward
Inability to score
Lack of skill

His aerial ability is average (bordering on poor factoring his height)


I'm not directly comparing both coz they swap some attributes.They have their strengths but i personally believe Song edges it due to his importance to his team.

Bring me to life - Evanescence.
As usual it touches my soul. I <3 Amy Lee.

Wow!!! I read through the whole thread expecting to see someone wise and discerning offering true insight into this oft overlooked malady.
The solution is VERY SIMPLE:picture the audience unclothed. Preferably the opposite gender(except you have umm,  preferences) and not in a sexual way. It'll make you smile and voila, confidence.

Does anyone have a new/fairly used Nokia N900 for sale like pronto?
