  1. There's a bigger fish to fry here. The country and its people are seriously shyte cycle of nightmare, and who knows what the future would be. So, crying over a flag being changed is meaningless in the greater scheme of things.
  2. 'Lie to me', bit over the top, but good. Why do tv series lose their suspense and thrill after a while. Lost, Prison break, etc. When they first came out, they were brilliant, but then they sorta lost something which made me turn away. It happens most of the time.
  3. To stoop so low is shocking. Come on, it is not, as though, they couldn't find a Caada-qaate who would volunteer to work with them! Damn.
  4. War maxaa meesha duqooshin iskugu yimid! this was my fav song when it came out. Simply beautiful. 'Guri gaajo, waa laga guuraa', 'Gacal beena, waa laga goostaa'. Somalia was a paradise lost.
  5. I don't get this show at all. I've tried to presevere and get into it, but couldn't. I just gave up. There was a hype and all that and I thought maybe I should check it out, but I didn't find it appealing at all.
  6. ^Says who? Proof it in a court of law. Djibouti is totally different ball game.
  7. The black lady was out of her comfort zone. She probably has some deep loath for anything Gay, which most of us (3rd world-ers)do, and that was exposed ruthlessly. Even worse, now the gay/lesbian people of this country are accussing her of homophobia, pathetic. I think, she should've rejected it outright and left the game show. Or try bulldoze (word commonly used in the App) her own view in. I think, it is going to be between the pretty one (i forgot her name), James if he improves and the Witch, Lorraine.
  8. Notice the two squiggles around the word refugees, adeer. Iska soco ban ku edhi... Buujuu, no one becomes a refugee in their own country. These people are called the 'internally displaced'. Doesn't matter what you put around the word. Its use in the case is WRONG unless you're saying like some said, if you are not from the North, you are an outsider in which case many from the north would find themselves in the same waters down in the rest of our Somali-land.
  9. 75,000 'refugees' to return home A refugee in your own country? They're Somalis in Somali-land.
  10. just checking if i can still post after all the working on this site!
  11. Sol techies/admin could have afforded to let us know in advance when the site is being maintained. A little message everytime you tried to visit could have been helpful or in advance warning for the members and visitors. Anything. I for one have been blaming my pc for not being able to load the bloody page!
  12. From the photos, it seems the President has been given the full head of state (visit) welcome. However, the adminstration must deliver for Somalia and Somalis. That is the bottom line. We shall see.
  13. "Hot climate produces baby girls" Tropical climates produce more girls. People who live in the tropics have more baby girls compared with those living in other parts of the world, work reveals. It may be down to the hotter weather or the longer days, says US researcher Dr Kristen Navara in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters. She says this climate may change miscarriage rates and sperm quality. Or there may be some evolutionary advantage to having more girls than boys if you live by the equator. Experts already know that the birth rates of boys and girls vary across the globe. The results could indicate an adaptive strategy employed by humans. While some of this can be explained by society - in countries like China baby boys are favoured and many unborn girls are electively aborted - there are natural processes at work. Research suggests the female foetus is less fragile than the male foetus, which is more prone to the effects of the environment on pregnant women. At times of extreme environmental stress, including war, the birth rate of girls outstrips that of boys. WIDE VARIATIONS: Experts have suspected that latitude could have an effect. Past work has shown that the chances of giving birth to a boy increase as you head south - at least in Europe. But it is difficult to draw conclusions looking at regions in isolation because of wide variations in things like culture, society and economy, to name but a few. Dr Navara, of the University of Georgia, set out to gain a global perspective by looking a the sex ratios at birth of 202 countries over a 10-year period and taking into account socio-economic differences between nations and continents. The accepted global average is slightly male biased, at 106 males per 100 females, or 51.5 %. "The only country in the world which produces more females than males is the Central African Republic," she told the BBC's Network Africa. In her study, Dr Navara found countries closer to the equator produced significantly fewer boys annually than those at temperate and subarctic latitudes - 51.1% and 51.3%, respectively. This pattern held strong despite "enormous continental variation in lifestyle and socio-economic status", said Dr Navara. "The results could indicate an adaptive strategy employed by humans, or there may be another non-adaptive strategy. "Perhaps male ejaculate quality or miscarriage rates vary on a latitudinal scale," she said. SURVIVAL ADVANTAGE: Dr Bill James of University College London, who has spent his career studying sex ratio patterns, said although the differences found were statistically significant, it was not as meaningful as other factors that have been linked to sex ratios at birth. "In general, when people face hard times they tend to have more girls than boys, although there are exceptions. "For example, women who carry hepatitis B virus are more likely to have boys. So are women who have pre-eclampsia in pregnancy." He said there were evolutionary explanations for sex ratio changes. "The idea is that, in mammals, males have a greater variance in their reproductive success. "Some have lots of offspring and others have none, whereas most females will have at least one offspring. "So it pays a women who is reproductively fit in good times to have a boy because he may well give her more grandchildren. "But when times are hard and if she is less reproductively fit, she is better off having a girl because in this way she should gain at least one grandchild." ====== Amazing, isn't it? Source:BBC
  14. Dishonest NO good. Halal maalin cadeey aa la quutaa.
  15. Eat ONLY when you're hungry.
  16. Very good programme. Loved it. Apparently there are riches there, if a programme that I have seen on National Geo is anything to go by. Any treasure hunters? This is serious matter.
  17. I think Mr Sugar goes after the weak or the members he perceives to be weak. He's a bully. That Asian young lady he fired last night was very intelligent, well mannered and could have brought a lot of good to any team, but just cause she couldn't talk as fast as or be as furious as the rest, she got the bullet. Tells you, it is all about entertainment, but not real business. The ******, tall Debra has got away with it last night. She was a mess. But just she came across as furious and ready to have a go at him or hapless Mona she got off lightly. We will see.......it is still early days, but I think, one of the guys will take it, this year.
  18. Q: Ninka Maxamed Cabdullahi oomaar talow ma Raage Oomaar walalkiiba? A: "The new foreign minister is Mohamed Abdullahi Omaar, the elder brother of award-winning journalist Rageh Omaar".
