^^^lool. The political infants come again with the usual nonsense defence. Sharif Hotel’s group have again damaged the Somali national interest for a few bucks. The irony here is for those who support him because of clan reasons; it will only hurt their “interest” more than any other Somali. Look at the peace that Nur Cade engineered who suffered the most, Yusuf Yey or the civilians of Mogadishu, and central Somalia? That’s the problem, while these individuals here were hoping themselves up to frenzy and demonstrating as well as funding criminal networks, we were telling them to think straight. Anyhow this is another setback but again will hurt Sharif Hotel and his group more than anyone else, rest assured.

The problem with Sharif Hotel supporters much like their failed hero is they basiclly can not comprehend basic statements. The title of the thread is “Mogadishu: New national currency after 17 years” What we have hin the Sakin scandal is printing of notes..

Shirjara’id Oo uu qabtay ayuu gudoomiyuhu kusoo bandhigay Qaabka la’istusay in laga dhigo lacagta cusub ee DKMG ah ku bedelayso lacagta hada dalka laga Isticmaalo . Gudoomiyuhu waxaa uu sheegay in ay soo wadaan Lacago aan lafarsamayn Karin ayaan soo wadnaa kuwaasi oo samayntooda gacan naga siinayaan Hayado calami ah Oo aaduunka laga yaqaabo isla markaana Aqoon dheer u leh samaynta lacagta . Lacagta Maanta ay soo bandhigtay DKMGS oo leh astaan ka duwan lacata hada waxay soo sal salaabtaa lacagtii hore ee kotonka shilin iyo Boqolka shilin . Ahem, a whole new currency regulated by the central bank was the aim. Not printing the same silly notes in Sudan. A great difference lad.

The other day, I wished my team Arsenal would go top of the league. Today they are no 1..

Wasiirka ayaa marlabaad sheegay in waddada loo maray ay tahay mid qaldan, waana wax ku dhisan damac doonid qofeed oo keliya, waxa loo soosamaysanaayona ay tahay waxa yar ee bulshadu haysato in lagu dhaco.

Wasiirka ayaa sheegay in lacagtaasi ay horseedi doonto sicir barar aad u sareeya, shilinka soomaaliguna qiime dhac uu ku yimaado, isla markaasna ay tahay mid lagu dhacaayo danyarta. Faarax Cali Shire ayaa ku eedeeyay Dawladdda Federaalka inta ay dalka ka maamusho waa yaryahay mana ogola wada tashi, waxaanse u cadeynayaa in ay noqon doonto lacagtaasi mid ka caagan Puntland isla markaasna xaaraam ka ah Puntland.

So Che, your friends failed, and Puntland still stands. That must be a problem for you?

^^^Again you are only talking about your own insecurities saxib, I wont even get personal here and we must respect the site and its rules. Also you and your whole government can not withstand the basic truth. I will let them burn. Now Juje, how many districts does Sharif Hotel rule? Do you know cause he clearly does not.

Originally posted by Juje: Duke you are not doing damage to anyone except yourself sxb. How so adeer? Unlike some , I seek neither money, nor recognition from this outfit.

Again Che, you can do better. I oppose this government because its led by a clown in the form of Sharif Hotel. A man who has neither the experience nor the basic skill to lead a village led alone Somalia. I disliked him from the beginning as we witnessed his flip flopping, declaring Jihad on Ethiopia one day, then meeting the CIA the other. I even gave the man a period of grace as a good well gesture which is documented in SOL. The fact he failed is not my fault nor did I carry weapons against him, demonstrated against him, nor send funds to his enemies. No adeer I merely used my god given right to analyze the situation as I see and commented on it. The state I support has not waged a war against him, as he did against us, nor did we encourage those who fought him as you do. Nor did we praise the actions of those who murder innocents for political gain as he did. Remember the first suicide attack targeted Yey, and people in here laughed it off. The same people cried out loud when it was used against the likes of Cadowe and Qamar, yet Puntland and its people including the Duke came out against the first action and the last. Che there is no equivalence moral or otherwise between the Duke, and the folks above. They fought and you still do, I only gave my opinion and guidance to the problems of my motherland. Thus far you were and are wrong, and the individuals above are still living in cloud cuckoo land were General Aydeed left them.

Duke sxb keep on nagging this 'dowlaad' is light years ahead of your thinking and capacity to comprehend. Adeer, one wishes that there was basic common sense in the minds of memebrs this “government” which seems to be a money making outfit for a few individuals, led by the illiterate Sharif Xasan. Aside from that, what has it achived, how many districts does it run? I am asking you since your “president” does not know. Also if this is false, where is the rebuke, the clarification and the correction from this “advanced light years” ahead entity? Its amusing you are still talking, but hey blame the Duke, and garoweonline and the BBC, because they are making you react and close the national embassies, keep quite while Somali’s are beaten and unlawfully imprisones and sell the sea for a few bucks. Yes the Duke is making you do this.

Che, as usual you add very little to the argument and let me correct you before you ride out on your high horse. The embassy debacle, the sea scandal, the failure to curb the crazy insurgents [who you support] are all the failures of this administration. It is the failure of Sharif Hotel and his supporters; it is the failure of the silly Djibouti caravan and the clanistic folks like the gentlemen in here who fought and demonstrated and funded an insurgency just to get us to this wonderful stage. Also Mr Che, let me remind you that you support the bizarre Al Shabaab outfit who’s nationalist tendencies is to replace the Somali flag, behead Somali’s and let us be led by simpletons from Alabama & Chechnya who are wanted criminals in their homelands. Now lets go back to the topic, I will not accept the failure of this adminstartion as my own or that of the previous ones.

ABWAN & Juje, as always give meaningful insight to their clan hatred and bias. After a year, is Sharif still working hard on replacing “Yey appointees” , it takes all this time to do this? Also if we are talking about Puntlanders and qualifications. Lets do a simple comparison shall we.. Compare Faroole education to Sharif’s. Gen Abdullahi Ilkajiir’s to Abdulkadir Ali Omar. Dr Farah Ali [finance chief of Puntland] to illiterate Sharif Xasan, & Yarisow. The most educated members of Sharif Hotels government, Sharmarke, Jurile, Jengeli all happen to be Puntlanders and close to Yey PS: To the southern folks, embassies are symbols of statehood, shutting them down completely brings joy to the secessionists like Mintid Farayar, but we have Juje, laughing at the dismantling of the state. Hey Juje, how many districts does Sharif Hotel control, Now what was Mr Hotel's response?

DF oo sheegtey iney xireyso safaarado 19 Jan 19, 2010 - 10:23:36 AM War qoraal ah oo kasoo baxay xafiiska wasiirka arimaha dibada ee Somalia Cali Axmed Jaamac [Jangeli] ayaa lagu sheegay in DF ay dhaqaale la'aan u xirayso safaaradaha ay ku leedahay calaamka. Warbixintan ayaa lagu xusay in la xirayo dhamaan saxaafadaha Somalia ay ku leedahay dalalka dibada, kuwaasoo ay ku jiraan Yurub iyo Mareyankanka, mana jiraan wax kale oo la sheegay in xiridooda ay keentay. "Dhaqaale la'aan awgeed ayaa sababay in safaaradaha Somalia ay ku leedahay calaamka albaabada la isugu dhufto, iyadoo shaqaalihiina lagu wargeliyay inay dib ugu soo laabtaan dalka" ayaa lagu yiri warqadan oo caalamka loo qaybiyay. Golaha wasiirada DF ayaa la sheegay inay ansixiyeen go'aankan, isla markaana uu aqbalay Madaxweyne Sh. Shariif, iyadoo la sheegay in markii dhaqaale ku filan safaaradaha loo helo dib loo furi doono. "Wasaarada arimaha dibadu waxay sameyn doonaan isbadal howleed, dib ayaana loo furi doonaa saxaafadaha la xiray markii loo helo dhaqaale ku filan" ayaa lagu yiri warqada oo uu ku saxiixan yahay wasiirka arimaha dibada ee Somalia Jangeli. Safaaradaha la xirayo ayaa waxaa ku jira safaarada ay Somalia ku leedahay Italy, France, Belgium, Germany, Mareykanka, Kenya, Tanzania, Indonesia, Zambia, Jabuuti, Ethiopia iyo kuwo kale oo la sheegay inay yihiin kuwo shaqo badan qabta. Dr. Cabdi Max'ed Culusow oo ah agaasimaha guud ee wasaarada arimaha dibada DF oo saxaafada la hadlay ayaa sheegay in qorshahan aanay ka wasaarad ahaan wax ka ogeyn, balse lasoo gaarsiiyay qoraalkan. "Safaaradaha la xirayo waa kuwii ugu shaqada badnaa, waxaana lagu soo beegay xili ay DF doonaysay inay Calanka Somalia gaarsiiso Dunida oo dhan, tanina dhabar-jab ayay ku tahay" ayuu yiri Dowlada uu horkacayo Sh. Shariif. Mas'uulkan u hadlay wasaarada ayaa sheegay in wasiirku uu qaatay go'aan isaga u gaar ah, balse uu isagu u arko inay tahay mid uu kula dagaalamayo DF kuna doonayo inuu ku dumiyo. Wararka soo gaaraya Garowe Online ayaa sheegaya in safaaradaha la xirayo ay madax ka yihiin dad uu magacaabey Madaxweynihii hore ee Somalia Cabdulahi Yusuf. Diblomasi diidey magaciisa ayaa Garowe online u sheegey in xariga xafiisyadaan tahay in laga takhaluso madaxda qunsuliyadaha iyo safaradaha si dowladda Sheekh Shariif uga gacan banaanato magacaabista dad cusub. Xirida safaaradaha Somalia ay ku leedahay calaamka ayaa imaanaysa xili ay Italy oo horay u gumeysan jirtay Somalia ay sheegtay inay furanayso safaaradeedii Somalia, iyadoo Somalia safaarado ku leeyihiin dalalka Ethiopia, Yemen iyo Uganda.

Somalia: ill-advised plan to print Somali shilling 20 Jan 20, 2010 - 2:07:15 AM By: Liban Ahmad The Transitional Federal Government’s ill-advised plan to print Somali shilling can undermine federalism, argues Liban Ahmad. The agreement signed by Sudan and Somalia’s Transitional Federal Government to print Somali shilling has drawn criticism from the governor of Somalia’s central bank Bashir Isse Ali. “This move will increase the inflation rate to incredible figures. The country will be another Zimbabwe. On one hand, the leaders cannot claim they are protecting people, and become part of a plot to kill them. If you shoot them or force them to starve to death, it is the same,” Ali told Reuters. The evidence for the governor’s argument lies in the Transitional Federal Government’s decision to print Somali shilling notes of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000 and 20,000 and 50,000 denominations. The disappearance of 500 Somali shilling banknote from the market shows the TFG has taken the current inflation into account but failed to consider future inflation in a war torn country whose business community and regional and transitional administrations have printed money between 1994 and 2008. In a study on a private money supply in Somalia published in 2003 Jamil Mubarak pointed out that printing 500 Somali shilling “ banknote [is] no longer profitable.” Sudan News Agency reported cost of the printing Somali shilling for the TFG “will top $17 million.” From this cost one can calculate the amount of money the TFG will print. According to the Jamil’s study US$0.03 was the cost paid to print one banknote. The Transitional Federal Government will be able to inject nearly half a trillion Somali shilling into the market. Puntland State government is not happy with the TFG’s money printing plan. “The top priorities for the TFG should have been to improve security and to rebuild public institutions through a reconciliation process, instead of plotting to flood markets with new money in a unilateral project that endangers Somali families and household” Puntland said in a press release. Somaliland which has its own shilling and a central bank will not, like Puntland, allow the new shilling to be used in territories it controls. The whole exercise will undermine the federalism project and put third parties such as Sudan in an awful position for compromising neutrality in Somalia’s complex politics. If the TFG puts money printing plan on hold and uses consultative approach to monetary policy, then more bridges will be built between the TFG and regions keen on a federal Somalia. If the TFG goes ahead with printing money, the new money will not be distinguishable from pre-1991 Somali shilling to avoid the fate of NA Somali Shilling printed by the former interim president of Somalia Ali Mahdi Mohamed in 1991, a money printing experiment that is a now a footnote to Somalia’s post 1990- private money supply history.

25th Hour is my favorite. Great movie, Edward Norton is fantastic..

Hayam, I wish I had a great deal of purchasing power. The truth is Apple’s slick devices are quite seductive and I am seeking as much insight from other SOL.

^^^ Action is no less necessary than thought to the instinctive tendencies of the human frame. I shall act on this, but you must be patient as i deliberate on the decision.

^^^Now its my fault the man is incompetent? Its my fault that he waged a fake religious Jihad and was the leader of those who introduced suicide bombers to Somalia in 2006, he was the leader of Al Shabaab that started assasinating Somali elders in Mogadishu in 2005. Its my fault the man is a failure and a hypocrite? Adeer I dont blame you for your words, you are not a Somali and dont have much insight into what this country is and what it could be. I was right about him, but I wish I had been wrong and that he brought peace to my country.

One online expert's mock-up of what Apple's new tablet might look like.

Can Apple's tablet do it again?Apple's latest product is the eagerly awaited 'tablet' electronic reader. But no one knows exactly what it will do, nor whether it can duplicate the runaway success of the earlier iPod or iPhone. So what might we expect? Should I purchase this overhyped and unnecessary gadget, wasting a great amount of money or be doomed to sulk, looking at those hip individuals who will no doubt flash it in the local Coffee shops? I am torn, I already have an Apple everything, but they have just upped the anti with this. Oh well, there are more pressing things to worry about, don’t believe the hype people.
