And I remember my Economics teacher telling us in class that China and co. practice Communism which is a terrible form of economic system and that Capitalism is the best form and its being practiced by U.S and co.

Now capitalism is crumbling and they are running to the pseudo-capitalist enemy of China.

I guess there is no perfect system then.

Now we go into the Int'l matches break(or better put more matches ) for our players.
Kaka, Marcee, Angelito, Cavalho, Albiol all out due to injury.
and the rest are off to face fire.
and we resume to face more fire from ''in-form'' valencia**chills**
and next Athletico(chai another derby)
na real war sha
lets hope all our boys come back free or minor/major injuries/knocks and whatever

the feeling here nowadays is more of a '' thanks god they gave us a fight''
so wining is now getting boring

That squad was assembled with over half a billion euros. Amodu Shuaibu will win the league with that team.

Nna, are you saying we will be winning come may(c++ translation we are throwing in the towel)?

vowiski:
The most successful club in world history Real Madrid would be celebrating as Spanish champions once again if we are to subscribe to recent rumor coming from the camp of the Spanish giant.

The current form of Real Madrid has blown everyone’s mind. Their latest terror on Osasuna with a 7-1 victory shows that it is no longer business as usual in Spain.

Independent and unconfirmed sources suggest that after the game on Sunday which saw Barcelona in a narrow escape from defeat at the San Mamés. Jose Mourinho had smiled and jokingly said the league was over, in his own words ‘it is finished’.

The recent result puts Barcelona 3 points below league leader Real Madrid. It is quite funny to see how the dynamics of football in Spain have changed dramatically. Barcelona has failed to pick up form and continue to struggle under the guidance of Pep Guardiola. This poor showing might not be unconnected with the decision of Guardiola to test new formations on every new game, leaving the traditional 4-3-3 system and a rotation system that has equally failed at best. Perhaps, he might need to seek help from Manchester City’s Roberto Mancini whose rotation system has given his club a clear 5 point lead from current champions Manchester United.

Let it be in the know that should Mourinho succeed in winning the LaLiga this season, he would doubtless be one of the greatest coaches history would ever recognize.

The stake in high and the guys at the nou camp must be asking themselves questions. It is only a matter of time before we know if it is finished for Barcelona or perhaps finished for Jose Mourinho at the Bernabeu.

Bros,
calm down, the league is still in its early phases. too early to predict anything. a lot of things happen between now and February next year.
Peace

6 hat-tricks in 11 games this season already.
10 straight wins in all competitions
cool
but rightly deserved also.

Hala Madrid.

Messi took a hit at that Old i-am-the-greatest agbaya called pele , good , I so much love that .More controversy Messi , Moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

If it was another player that said that all of you will rain abuses on him. Now that is Leo, its a cool thing to do.smh.

@ pele,
wahala tie na poju.must you talk.

Congrats to us.
The special one achieved something new in our history again last night.
At long last we win at the French city and convincingly too
with a wonderful brace from the lovely Cris.

beautiful free-kick. Pepe is now a wall breaker for CR
Lass really impressed with his defensive displays and his forays upfront.
CR was good with his passes if only the others were a little luckier in front of goal. Indeed he is now more of a team player than before
ozil played out the full 90 minutes.the guys go always they look like hin wan die of fatigue after 70 minutes
Casillas had little to do but was just lucky with the ball that hit the cross bar.
the comment by Mou of Zorro now made sense when I saw albiol. .
The whole squad performed well and we controlled the game well all through the 90 minutes.


this weekend its osasuna.
he be like say we play whoever levante plays the following week

Lets hope the winning streak continues and the cleansheet stays longer.



Hala El Mister
Hala CR7

medjai:
Last night was also Pep's 200th game as Barca coach and Messi's 4th goal was Barca's 500th under Pep.
Messi's first goal was his 200th for Barca. Messi's record stands at 202 goals in 286 matches.
Really a night of records, last night.

Ronaldo scores from a freekick just outside of the penalty box.
His first freekick goal of the season from about 1000 attempts.
Nothing special about goal. The distance was just a little over 6 yards.

ddippset:
LOL @ 1000 attempts.

non-entities comments dont usually count or make sense

I dont know but all i know is that its not going to be an easy win.

benzema scoring again
kaka with an assist
and CR getting a penalty to score

DJTee:

lagcity:
A breakdown of the states that have approached the capital market for funds at different times reveals that Lagos is the highest with N275 billion bond issues.


If anyone has more state capital debt figures, please post with the source Let's also discuss what investments we've seen on ground in these states. What are the funds being used for?

So what do Nigerian Reporters do, what figures do they quote? We have nigerian news channels and Nigerian reporters dont we?


WHAT IS THE OFFICIAL NIGERIAN FIGURE---THAT IS THE QUESTION, Whats figures do the proffessors in our university quote, the market researchers, the economist in Nigeria etc what do Nigerians themselves quote?

the bolded is one part that is so sicouraging. All they most often do is go on strike yet basic statistics they cant keep.

concerning our news stations and journalist they also rely on stats provided by the west. Even the OP had to rely on wikipedia to determine the number of phone users in Nigeria (You tend to think of where is NCC and thier data).

chai na wa.

@Iolo
always knew this.

CNN(christian porfey) and co dont seem to help matters though. They over sentimentalise our affairs.

we are not rich nor enjoying at all, but we are as well not suffering as they seem to portray it.

Worse still our political class(all them inclusive) make matters worse for us with their mismanagement of resources too.

Kim Kardashian and her clan (or should that be klan?) only came on my radar during the most recent school holidays when I discovered my teenagers glued to the television.

Frustrated by their inertia, I inquired as to what was keeping them indoors. Keeping Up With The Kardashians, I was told (as if I was a complete slowpoke). Up until that moment in my life, I thought Kardashians were fictional aliens on Star Trek. Now I know they are in fact a family of non-fictional nobodies from Los Angeles called Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall, Kylie and Kris who have their own reality television show.

Since my recent epiphany, I have come to realise that this family is strangely ubiquitous. In addition to the television show, I now regularly notice Kardashians on multiple magazine covers near the supermarket checkout and this week, pack-leader, Kim and one of her K-named sisters are in Australia to spruik their "fashion" label and attend, among other things, the spring racing carnival in Melbourne. One has to ask oneself, why do these women command so much of the world's media attention and why on earth are they famous?

The Kardashian sisters, Kourtney, Kim and Khloe in their reality series Keeping Up With The Kardashians. The family have made a fortune from being fabulous nobodies.

It is extraordinary to witness the rise of voyeurism in our culture. Facebook and Twitter allow us to discreetly follow the sometimes inane ravings of our friends and acquaintances minute by minute, blow by blow. Reality television programs like Keeping Up With The Kardashians and their family spin off shows such as Khloe and Lamar, enable us to follow the day to day activities of complete nobodies. It seems the Kardashians are famous solely because, for some bizarre reason, they are prepared to live a significant portion of their lives in front of cameras. That alone has given them international celebrity status and, no doubt, pots of money.

Keeping Up With The Kardashians promotes the hollow notion of celebrity, over-the-top extravagant "fairytale" weddings and finding "Mr Right". It is about attending the opening of envelopes, of being given a diamond engagement ring that would feed and educate whole villages in Africa for a decade, surgical enhancements, and the importance of having a different designer handbag for every designer outfit. It is shameless, diabolical promotion of the kitsch, aspirational brand that is Kardashian. It is shallow, vicarious living, for the seriously vacuous (sorry kids) masses.

Speaking of kids, what do the Kardashians teach, by their actions and lifestyle, the millions of kids around the world who, like my own, choose to ingest this drivel? Do these dubious role models have young women believing that if they are pretty they might be invited to the Melbourne Cup one day, can expect to travel around the world first class, be "papped" constantly and might eventually hook up with a basketball star who will look after them for life, or perhaps 72 days. Do young men who watch these women think that in order to get the girl of their dreams they have to be at least six foot two and that providing her with anything smaller than 10 carats would be deemed a sign of failure?

There is no denying that in spite of the veil of shallowness, the Kardashian women are business savvy, thanks primarily to their omnipotent, mega-monster-manager-mother, Kris. The frustrating thing about the television show, the media hype and promotional palaver that follows them constantly is that not enough of the underlying rat-cunning intelligence that has led to their so-called stardom is immediately discernible. No doubt that is a very deliberate part of the media strategy.

Of course the simple answer is not to watch the show or read the articles. That's all good and well, but the reality is that millions of people follow the lives of the Kardashians. I take my hat (and fascinator) off to them for successfully and ruthlessly feeding the insatiable appetite of an audience hungry for news and information about a bunch of fabulous nobodies.

@guy in brown shirt - wtf? there is nothing quite as grotesque  as a skinny man with a pot-belly.

why are most middle aged nigerian men so ugly. i can 't remember the last time i saw a middle aged nigerian man who could be described as good looking by anybody other than his mother.
the young nigerian guys i see are descent looking but why do they age so bad? bad diet? too much alcohol or something?

the guy in brown shirt(a.k.a opebe) looks as bad as he looks on set.
he even looks better in movies due to his clothes which are always native or a crazy combination of various attires.

Most actors and actress especially the yoruba class in nollywood hardly keep a fit figure after attaining stardom. they suddenly blowup as if food will soon finish in mama put.

[quote author=~Sissy~ link=topic=792420.msg9447459#msg9447459 date=1319998224]i'd say however, that some type of cancers do receive more publicity than others example bosom cancer vs pancreatic cancer. both are deadly but how many times have you heard of any kind of awareness/publicity on pancreatic cancer? because bosom cancer is more common than the other[/quote]na wa for these unwanted editing sef.
breas't cancer now turned into bosom cancer all in the name of keeping it clean.

We are in trouble in nigeria.

If its NEWS about jonathan or somebody in PDP stealing most post here will complain and lament and curse at our Govt.

now its more personal and related to somebody down the line, many posters here say the OP should support his brother in the act.

Surely we are in a mess on how to revive nigeria.

am even more concerned about the security on the coaches.

imagine in the middle of nowhere then suddenly one is held hostage at gun point to part with his valuables or face the noozle.

Also, how long will the trip even take sef( no info to that respect).

and about the FFP as long as it will make weak teams better am good for it.

But with most rules today, i only see it making the rich richer and the poor poorer.

looking at the table, it nice for a change.
even though I don't see them sustaining it through out the season. But it will be nice they get to achieve something at the end.

A good example is Hoffenheim in Bundesliga about three seasons ago. In the first half of the season they topped the league going into the winter break. but just one injury to their top striker and the team went kaput. they struggled to stay in the top half by end of the season.

It all boils down to the depth of the squad and i hope they(levante) have viable subs going into the tough part of the season.

too bad villareal is now in the relegation zone.
that was how deportiva started till it was too late for them to escape.
i hope they solve the problem ASAP

this is absolutely funny
levvante still toppibg the league.

if it ends like this them go soon sack garrido

chai while typing the third goal enter.

malaika di maria na in score. with fine assist from mercedez benz

the match don start o.

two goals alreay in the kitty. hope we score more and close the match on a winning note.

but na wa o. levante win again

but itw still way better than one club i prefer not to mention the name

think of this two sixty year old men apply to be employed as part-time security guys at a store you run one has earings on both ears and the other doesn't. which of the two seems more apealing to be employed in your perspective.

imagine if Big Boy Negredo was playing.

una for hear wen.

I almost fainted when the goalie stopped Messi's spotkick.
