  4. I should never have stayed up. Rafa got it wrong in the first but trying to sit back and hit long balls to Torres and Kuyt. The 2 goals woke us up but it was too late. Anyway, the next game will be away to Chelsea. Time to show them what it's like to play a decent team (too many easy games for them so far this season).

  10. Good pics Juje. Lets hope those were productive discussions.
  11. What a lot of critics and of Arab leaders don't see is the huge sums they donate each year towards charity.
  12. I object to the winner A&T. Armed resistance shall explode against the man aided and assisted by 'qurbo joogto'. Only man, JB, who is Hargaisa, was up for election. That was not fair. The losers of the election are collectively financing the resistance. Down down A&T down!!!
  13. BIG game on Sunday! Saudis confirm Liverpool interest Liverpool players The move could boost Liverpool's profile in the Middle East A Saudi Arabian prince has confirmed he is looking to buy up to half of Premier League football club Liverpool. Prince Faisal bin Fahd bin Abdullah al-Saud told the Saudi Al-Riyadh newspaper "we are looking forward to acquiring 50% of the club's stake". The price of £200m to £350m he is ready to pay for the stake is more than the £174m US owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett paid for the whole club. A deal to open football schools in the Middle East has also been signed. 'Sports investments' The prince's sports investment company F6 has confirmed it has reached a deal with Liverpool co-owner George Gillett to set up two academies in Saudi Arabia and two in North Africa. The deal would also extend the interests of the US Nascar motorsport series in the Middle East. "This partnership will provide a lot of investments in football, racing and sports media in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East," an F6 statement said. "The contracts are basically sports investments, which also include establishing football academies that will definitely help the future of Saudi sports in the future." Meanwhile the prince said it would be "marvellous" to seal a deal securing a 50% at the Merseyside club, which he called one of the most famous in the world. 'Concluded soon' Mr Hicks and Mr Gillett have been looking to reduce Liverpool's £245m debt and paid off £60m in July. That was when the loan used taken out to buy the club in February 2007 ran out and was renegotiated with banks RBS and Wachovia. Considering what Hicks and Gillett paid it is a huge increase in the club's value Harry Philp, Hermes Sports Partners "The deal will be concluded soon and its value will be between £200m and £350m," the Al-Riyadh paper quoted the prince, who is also an honorary member of Saudi football club Al Hilal, as saying. "If we finalise the deal, it will be something marvellous because Liverpool is one of the best and most famous clubs in England and the whole world." The Saudi interest comes after a document was leaked showing that since March 2009 the club has been seeking to attract new investors in return for a stake in the Anfield club. In March 2009, a prospectus drawn up by investment banks Rothschild and Merrill Lynch told potential investors that for £50m they could get a minority stake in "one of the world's most successful football clubs". Prince Faisal bin Fahd bin Abdullah al-Saud, who was at Anfield on Saturday for the 6-1 win over Hull - where he signed the deal for the academies - now appears to be seeking to invest much more than £50m. As well as the F6 sports investment vehicle he is also chairman of Saudi holding company FAMA Group Stadium on hold "Considering what Hicks and Gillett paid it is a huge increase in the club's value to somewhere between £400m and £700m," Harry Philp, managing director at sports financers and advisers Hermes Sports Partners, told the BBC. "They had to refinance their debt with their banks recently. Despite paying off £60m of their debt recently as part of that refinancing it is still surprising, particularly considering that plans for a new stadium are on hold." However, a number of questions remain over any possible investment, should the Saudis take a stake. "The Saudis will have to take 25% of the club from each of Hicks and Gillett if they want half the club, but whether they both would be willing to sell any more of their holdings is unknown," added Mr Philp. Mr Hicks has promised that a new stadium will be built when the current global financial turmoil settles down. Liverpool recently signed a sponsorship deal with Standard Chartered bank, a sign that the club's commercial revenues are set to remain healthy over the coming seasons. The deal begins next July and runs to the end of the 2013/14 season. Just sell the damn club!
  14. ^How is the world of Electrical Engineering GJ? Ibti, I don't mind really.
  15. What happened to campain rallier? I was going to throw eggs at them (a snake at Ngonge).
  16. I don't mind the drive to and from. It's the standing around waiting with millions of midget hindi hoosta ka wada galaaya oo ku jiiraaya. Bloody Daallo :mad:
  17. Three month notice is standard but is usually shortened to about 6 weeks. Airport run again tonight. Bloody Daallo :rolleyes:

  19. Busy day after a week off. Now have to go to airport. Daallo have made a lot of people stranded because of the cancelled Djibouti to London line.
  20. Originally posted by -MARX-: Another pathetic and irrelevent post. Norf, I think I saw in camden last week. Why is it though? With all the negative press Islam and Muslims have been receiving over the years it is still growing rapidly. So muh so that you can pray in Mosques that used to be Churches. ps you didn't see me in Camden saxib. Wouldn't be seen dead around there. At least I know where you got the idea for the Mohican though
  21. Empty churches, full mosques Several redundant churches in Glasgow and other parts of Scotland are slowly being converted into mosques as Christian congregations dwindle while a growing Muslim population demands more places to worship. Colin Randall, foreign correspondent, reports GLASGOW // When the Glasgow Central Mosque, then rivalling the biggest in Europe, opened a quarter of a century ago, it seemed all the needs of Muslim worshippers in Scotland’s largest city would be met at its imposing site on the banks of the Clyde. http://www.thenation al.ae/apps/pbcs.dll/ article?AID=/2009092 6/FOREIGN/709259802/ 1041
  22. I think they had no choice! The shift in people's opinions of Riyaale and Co. should not be ignored however. The Elections will happen and Riyaale will be gone along with UDUB. Think geographically.
  23. Cara, I’m assuming you have been following this thread. A little re-cap is required none the less. What we have requested from the Atheists, on a number of occasions, is what they believe to be the origins of humans. This was presented to us by Raamsade. He said Humans descended from Apes or Ape-like creatures. Subsequently, I posted an excerpt from a book by one of evolution’s main modern era opponents. Naden and you object to my use of HY’s work. What you both seem to find contentious in his work is not clear. All you’ve stated is that he is merely wrong and I should take your word for it and read more on the subject (something you both seem to have spent years studying). However, there are others doing the same thing (writing about evolution’s short-comings). Now is that what you would call a debate? “I know more than you so will not engage you until you have done your share of reading”. A debate does no necessarily require both parties to be ‘read-up’ on the subject. It requires both parties to try and PROVE they are correct. So far, there has been reluctance from your side however tedious it may feel for you. Merely stating this person’s opinion won’t wash because he/she is wrong doesn’t do justice to your years as a biologist. Your inference that this theory is accepted by all biologists everywhere doesn’t answer the questions asked either. The same questions which have led to state schools accepting that evidence is indeed limited and that evolution will now be taught as a theory only and no longer as fact. Propaganda? Have a number of biologists not reverted from their pro evolution stance over the years? You see, what I see and hear in the news or on the net indicate that the evolution theory has been challenged without much in the way of a fight back from Darwinists. Maybe you believe the opposite to be true but until you state how and why you think this, I will have no option but to believe what I see and hear. What you will need to accept is that not everyone has studied the subject or read any books on it. However, there should always be a ‘reasonable’ threshold for those more informed to at least attempt answering what to them may be the most basic of questions/common misconceptions (something we have been doing on anything Islam for our resident nay sayers). This has not occurred here. You haven’t even attempted answering my earlier questions. If however you feel I’m not worthy then that's up to you but those questions won’t disappear.
