no one's forcing you to buy it. Haba grin

Nne Nne, you completely miss the point. It's not about Someone forcing me to buy it or not. I bet you're one of the people That thinks that buying that $139 million dollar house on front page today doesn't make all that sense. There's something we call "Criticism" which you have clearly forgotten about.

Spec wise, this phone is just meh. 8MP camera, Dual-core 1400Mhz processor, 1GB RAM, 1800mAh battery in 2014?? Those specifications are so 2012. I guess the Samsung Galaxy SIII is the new Apple IPhone 6.

Contract price, that.

More likely about $600-800 for the 4.7 and the plus on payg.

Its not even $600-800, but Atleast $1000 off contract and all you get is an increase in screen size? This is really sad.

landuseact: I can't even express the joy I feel that bryan cranston beat matthew for best actor. I prefer when actors can be subtle in deir performances rather than scene chewing wit quotes upon quotes and I was hoping matthew wouldn't win just because he was having a 'mcconaissance' year. Anna gunn actually won! Good for her. And my lovely martin freeman won even if it was for sherlock and not fargo. I am just so happy fargo nd breaking bad won awards sha. I LOVE modern family and ty burrell, but this is gettn ridiculous. Is jim parson's d only actor for comedy ni Also getting ridiculous

Oga, are you serious? The quotes upon quotes is what people like me liked about Matthew and the show entirely.
Bryan's win was more like a reward from the Emmy voters for breaking bad's final season and also the fact that matthew was nominated alongside Woody in the same category was somehow a disadvantage for matthew(split votes), Its just like having Harvey and Mike(suits) on the same category of an award.

"If the only thing keeping a person decent is the expectation of
divine reward then, brother, that person is a piece of shitt. And I’d
like to get as many of them out in the open as possible. You gotta

RayMcBlue:

Since it's logically impossible to nominate everyone, the award organizers does the next best thing. They put them all to a vote, then chose the actresses that got the highest nods (10 preliminary contenders). The decisive vote is negotiated, enabling them to trim it down to the final 6.

Tatiana made the preliminary cut but lost her spot after the final round of votings. Apparently, the voters didn't think she deserved to be on the list just yet. She wasn't ignored however.



I have seen the first 4 episodes, enough to appreciate her acting capability, alas, not really my kind of show. I like 'em complicated and hardcore, which is why I stick mostly to HBO and Showtime shows.

To be sincere, denying Tatiana's masterful work a spot there speaks to the politics of television and not its excellence.
You've seen just four episodes? Oga, you haven't seen like the remaining eight characters she played yet, four episodes is nothing near enough to appreciate Tatiana's acting. You haven't even met HELENA, my favourite character on the show which she played. Please, do me a favour and watch the remaining episodes when you're free, its just two seasons for now with just 20 episodes combined.Its not like the show is outta this world or something, not even the kind of shows I'm into but Tatiana's acting got me hooked. When I am watching the show I am actually not even thinking about her doing multiple parts, because I am so into each one of her characters as their own entity. Seriously, we're not supposed to be having this conversation if you have seen the remaining episodes of that show, its just so obvious that she was denied a spot there. Kerry Washington and Lizzy Caplan Over Tatiana? I guess I'll start taking the Emmys as serious as People's Choice Awards.

chromatic:
I watch orphan black...Tatiana is a good actress, she deserves a spot there but not Lizzy's spot though. Lizzy does a great job on masters of sex. Definitely not Robin's or Juliana's spot either..
There are quite a good number of leading women on TV that deserve nominations too. I'll have Keri Russell( The Americans), Katey Sagal( Sons of Anarchy) there too if it was up to me.

Yeah, Lizzy, Robin and Juliana are all good no doubt, but Tatiana deserves a spot there. To win is another different story all together but to not have a nod? Shitt is cray!!. I haven't seen Sons of Anarchy yet, but Keri Russell did a good job on The Americans just like Eva Green did on Penny Dreadful, hope she(Eva Green) gets a nod next year.

RayMcBlue:

Gotta be honest with you, Tatiana Maslany is way out of her league on this one.

-Lizzy Caplan dabbled where very few actress had ever dabbled in her "Masters Of Sex" role. She deserved to be on the list.
-Claire Dunes erratic "Carrie Matheson" character is the driving force of "Homeland" and one of the top favorites to win.
-Michelle Dockery has carved a niche for herself with her portrayal of "Lady Mary Crawley" in "Downton Abbey" which had already earned her 3 previous Emmys nominations.
-Julianna Margulies is an Emmy veteran and currently holds the record of most wins. She's the top favorite to win.
-Kerry Washington: Don't know much about her.
-Robin Wright: Another top contender.

Yeah, the other actresses there were good also but saying that its Way outta Tatiana's league? I don't think so. The chick played like a dozen characters On OB perfectly. Tatiana is amazing and the fact that she wasn't nominated (again) only goes to show how incredibly out of touch the Emmy voters are. To have ignored her performance(s) is a mind-boggling embarrassment IMO.
I'm beginning to think it's all about PR and money and BBC America isn't a big enough player yet unlike NetFlix and Showtime. Let me ask you again, have you seen OB? I'd be very surprised if you've seen it and still think that she's not supposed to be up there with the rest.

Probably, her performances even though decent, weren't anything special, else she would have gotten a nod. Maybe at the next edition, she might finally get the recognition she deserve?

I hope so. You've seen Orphan Black right?.

Take a look at this category;
Actress in a drama
-Lizzy Caplan (Masters of Sex)
-Claire Danes (Homeland)
-Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey)
-Julianna Margulies (The Good Wife)
-Kerry Washington (Scandal)
-Robin Wright (House of Cards)

I think she's supposed to be up there With the rest, Lizzy caplan's performance couldn't be more decent than Tatiana's.

Nice one Op, though this year's Emmy was somehow incomplete for me without a nom for Tatiana Maslany(Orphan Black's Sarah Manning), she was simply amazing on that show. She didn't deserve the snub, my opinion though.

macof: @bigfrancis.

I have no business with Jesus, he is as dead as any man who ever lived, humans come and go, achieve their destiny and probably return again for unfinished business.

Orunmila's soul lived over 3 lifes. it is believed that his last life was as Agboniregun the Babalawo who prophecied Oduduwa's coming.

Jesus is Adam Well maybe also Melchizedek, Jesus was a good teacher but his end was pathetic and his people were ashamed of him. Go to Israel and hear stories which Bible dear not pen down.

I noticed you always active when dismissing Yoruba greatness. However this is not a tribal issue.

In a scale Buddha Was more efficient to his people than yeshua(Jesus) was.
Because Romans elevated him to God status and used him to form a religion doesn't guarantee anything.
You say Jesus achieved more than Orunmila on earth. Wat did Jesus achieve? In his 33 yrs on earth wat did he do that no one else did? All his miracles have been done by people before him, his message of love has been taught in various forms by old prophets around the world.
Orunmila came with a new concept, new message, a new way for humans to High complexity and consciousness.

Give a list of Contributions Jesus give to the world and I'll give For Orunmila




Ah ahn! Oga please let it rest, this is not about 'my religion is better than yours'. Heck! Bigfrancis is not even a christian . Though I think he went a bit overboard with what he said about Orunmila but its really not about 'my religion is better than yours'. As you can see I thought he was all about Jesus Christ, that's why I asked him about Buddha. I guess you saw what his reply was.

Anyways, I'll leave y'all with this; "if you can't imagine how anyone could hold the view you're attacking, you just don't understand it yet".

bigfrancis21: The soul who was to become Christ on earth is held in very high esteem by the God force and was sent on a very special mission on earth to show humans the proper purpose in life, to bring the universal truth to earth and to show us the way out of the cycle of death and rebirth. Whether you like it or not, Jesus Christ still remains God's favourite.

I don't view Christ from the christian perspective or lens. Never. Neither do I identify as christian but then, truth be told, Jesus Christ is universal and very important. He's a universal model and a typical example of what we souls on a human journey should strive to achieve. Jesus Christ is universal to everybody - muslims, buddhists, ATRs, confuscionists, jews etc. He remains the God force's next-in-command and you can't change that. He doesn't need your so-called 'worship' or 'reverence' either way anyway

Hey bigfrancis21, you mean Jesus Christ is God's favourite?. What about Buddha, do you know anything about the soul that incarnated as Buddha?.

Before Jesus Christ, was there any other soul(s) sent on this 'very special mission' by the God force?.
Music/Radio / Re: Rate Beyonce's New Album by sushieater: 10:31pm On Dec 30, 2013
Ms_Steph: am not saying the songs itself is bad. just the lyrical contents on her dress code in some videos she looks like a rihanna wanna be and shes a role model to women


anitank: I thought exactly the same thing when I listened to the tracks and watched the videos. Looked like she had to mimic Rihanna cos that's exactly the kind of album Riri would produce. I enjoy some of the songs tho, drunk in love is still my favorite for now then flawless


Here is what Bey said ;

"I don't at all have any shame about being sexxual," Beyonce says. "I'm
not embarrassed about it. I don't feel like I have to protect that side of
me because I do believe that sexxuality is a power that we all have".

I think deepsights position of a cause is quite sensible unlike that of our religious brethren.

Take for example the string theory which says our universe was formed by the collision of two other parallel universes. If proven, that's something deepsight is ready to consider as cause.

Unlike our religious brethren who already "know" with certainty Allah/Yahweh caused it.

"Mine" featuring Drake turned out to be my best. "Drunk In Love" omg! I always feel high when I listen to that song. "Rocket" my best r'n'b song in that album. It kinda reminds me of "resentment" in her b-day album.
Correct babe. Mine is my best too, I love everythang about the song

Religion / Re: For Those that doubt the existence of a supernatural being by sushieater: 8:58am On Dec 14, 2013
This same old boring argument again, if you insist that the creator of this creation you're talking about could come from nothing, why can't the creation(universe) come from nothing just like amanfrommars asked?

If the creator not having a beginning is not a problem for you and other
defenders of this argument, why is it a problem for the natural universe? It appears to be a wholly arbitrary choice.

To answer this, we must look at a further problem. Some might reply this and insist that the decision is not arbitrary, and that
The creator must be allowed to have these attributes that your argument seems to imply.

The person may say that the argument is an attempt to show the
need for there to be a creator that has the attributes that we cannot find in the universe. The person might say that because we know that everything in the universe needs a cause and that the idea of infinite time is nonsense, there must be this creator with these unique attributes. That is, there must be this creator that does not begin, has no creator, and is thus able to create the universe. But this is just a bald assertion.

The lack of human imagination when it comes to solving mysteries at the boundaries of current knowledge is not a good reason to invoke a hypothetical entity with mysterious powers that enable it to be immune from paradoxes.

In order to explain something apparently designed and which cannot create itself, a creator is conjured into existence which would require even more unlikely explanation.
It sounds more like the problem of special pleading, so is no better off.

P/S: I'm not an Atheist and would never be, but your logic is not that sound to convince these guys.
