I was in toronto myself this summer and I must report I hardly met any nomad from SOL. Meeshu sidaan mooday ma noqonin. Too many somali restaurants that would improve with an injection of managing customer relationships. (you are invited to eat lunch at 1300 but end up eating dinner at 2000) lool i no what you mean but hey those concerned @ our gathering had a valid excuse i guess. London transpot system is not very reliable @ all

--------------Watch action live on British Eurosport-------- Followers of Italian football can expect to see even more of their favourite teams and star players on television this season as British Eurosport enter the second year of their contract to cover the world’s best League. Having taken over from Channel 4 as surprise hosts in the middle of last season, they’ve spent this summer hardening up plans for even more comprehensive coverage this time around. It means a minimum of two live matches per weekend, extended highlights plus a possible preview show. "We’ll have a full studio presentation around the best game of the week," explains Sports Editor Richard Copeman. "We’re delighted that James Richardson, regarded as the face of Italian football on British screens for the past decade, will host this. There’ll also be live action from a second game every weekend. In addition, we are introducing a new 30-minute highlights programme set to be aired at 7pm on Mondays then repeated throughout the week. There’s also the strong likelihood of a Friday night preview slot once we get into the season. "We’ll be having email interaction on the shows with James and guests ... emails to be sent to seriea@eurosport.co.uk The best ones will be read out on air and answered with a prize for best." And it’s not only viewers who get their names on the show. "Plans are in hand for some of Serie A’s biggest names to appear in special interviews ahead of key games for their clubs," reveals Copeman. Dave Farrar and John Roder will be the regular commentators. Current favourite Bryan Hamilton will be alongside them, adding his enthusiastic and informed comments to every game. Regular studio guests will include ex-Chelsea hero Roberto di Matteo, who played his Italian football at Lazio, ex-Pisa defender Paul Elliott and a new team member, former England defender Tony Dorigo who had a short spell with Torino. Gabrielle Marcotti and Filippo Maria Ricci, top Italian sports journalists based in England, will be along to add their different viewpoint some weekends along with other surprise guests. Coverage kicks off on August 31 with Bologna v Parma live at 7.25pm. "Viewers will still get to see the whole 90 minutes and James will also front a studio show that night with the full cast to set up the entire season," says Copeman. British Eurosport TV times Saturdays Live: Sundays Live: (1.30 – 4pm or 7– 9.30pm depending on choice of matches) Mondays Highlights: 7-7.30pm Friday Preview: To be announced Kick-off : Sunday, Aug 31 – Bologna v Parma live (19.25 UK time)

sorry lads your deluding yourselfs its Man u all the way. ((am not a man u fan ))

I will with stand your jibe @ Calcio and hold up my hands and say yes Lazio do indeed play a very attractive type of football. Yes it now seems we have a loss gallactics 2 @ chelsea....and by the looks of thinks (certainly if the sign makelee)) they will be real title contenders with Man u and Arsenal, and even more i think they will be a real threat for teh champions league. I wll guess that the season will look something like this 1. Man u ((they look amaing so far)) 2. Chelsea (( perhaps nxt year)) 3. Arsenal ((small squad will cost them again)) 4. Blackburn ((they would ersve it, they play great footie))

oh much better much much better.....although i must admit it's not due to any conserted effort by the govnt to get the population more active, rather more to do with the fact that the portions of food served here are smaller, less quality, even the coach potatos here get tired of terrestrial Tv after awhile and feel teh need to go out and shop, and fiannly the most important factor that explains why the brit's are not so fatter than there american counter parts is there obession with walking the Dog??? In every whether, rain or shunshyne, on pavements or country parks, you are garanteed to see someone waking there Dogg :confused: :confused:

True X, although i would say any potential clashes that might occur between china and the established hyper-power that is now america and its multi-national corps ((who thrust for yet more and more access to more markets)) will occur on such platforms as the WTO and by proxy geo-poltical bouts as you alledued to with regards to N.Korea Both america and china have quite good bi-lateral relations already and alot of senior ranking officals visit each others countries regularly so I cannot see any of the 2 dirctly challanging the other for now, however much america might 'huff' and 'puff' and threaten to blow the world up

They should be worried: the west and the spread of Islam
Thinkerman replied to Thinkerman's topic in General
Am glad you took the time to read the article gents and ladies Mizz unique no prob sis Jawahiir indeed they will never stop the spread of Islam how can they CM I think they already are lol judging by the sound of the article -
With the greatest of respects B******ks ((as we say here in England))Baltalk. You can resort to whatever you want, but the more lies and mis-information you post here, the more you should ready yourself for my counter argumnets so get over it I dont think that i ever used anything but accurate descriptions of a highly decrepit insensitve and remarkable pointless discourse. U use such words as 'world community' 'free world' 'terrorist' bal bla bla. All you do is talk retoric absaloutly useless piontless beligernt yaboo retoric. Why dont you look at the title of this topic that u set and ask your self seriously (A) where your loyalty comes first (i) in being an adopted citzen of the multi-national corporations that is american, or (ii) In Islam and your Muslim Brothers and sisters whether they be in somalia Iraq Nigeria or China ?? I think you have got yourself very confussed and i would ask you to look at what u write, and dont get overly emtional at my more than fair critiqe of your morally bankrupt stance. Iraq wasnt attacked by USA and its Puppet Britan ((in which both countries populations were firmly against such actions)) for the sake of democracry or for the sake of riding Iraq of a destructive dictator. It was all about the taking advantage of the ((once in a life time oppotunity)) of post-9/11 climate to confront an 'invisible enemy', in a war that could see no end. So that permenant militery bases can be expanded further into uncharted terroities and un-hospitable regimes who didnt want there economies to be controlled be toppled. I think you need to take a long seriosu look at your self, and the highly insesntive, inaccurate non-sensical postion that you have so stubbornly defended and see the errors in your ways. I for one would be more than happy to accept an appolgy for your actions on behave of the nomads I leave you with this article to ponder on Oil and security l

Oil and Security lie behind Bush's expedition to Africa
Thinkerman replied to Gediid's topic in Politics
America's message was simple: give me oil and military bases, I will get you aid for HIV/AIDS victims and enhanced access to U.S. markets. Indeed Gediid i enjoyed the articles insight. You see that's why i hate most mainstream news coverage. To even try to taken on other avenues of discussion such as the above would be impossible, and one would end up being labbelled 'a conspircist', when the reality is that the truth is too hard to swallow for the general public. once again thx for the article. -
Wa Calayakum saxiib hope your doing well whateverr it is that your doing

Salam calaykum Nomads. I posted this article here which i read from a link from Islamicity.com today i found it very interesting, and thought that the views of the author shows just how the Christian institutions in the USa are reacting towards the reality and the vast speed @ which Islam is spreading. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Ellis: Islam filling void left by the church Aug 20, 2003 By Rob Phillips A pilgrim's walk Muslim women gather and prepare for the haj pilgrimage to Mecca. RIDGECREST, N.C. (BP)--Islam is rising in America, not because of its strength, but because of the retreat of the church, and if the religion founded by Muhammad 1,400 years ago continues to grow at its current rate, there will be more Muslims than Christians in every major U.S. city by 2020. The observations were voiced by Islam expert Carl Ellis during the Aug. 15-17 National Conference on Islam cosponsored by LifeWay Christian Resources and the North American Mission Board's interfaith evangelism team at LifeWay's Ridgecrest (N.C.) Conference Center. Ellis is co-founder of Project Joseph, an effort to educate the church about contemporary issues. An expert on Islam who travels around the world and speaks extensively on the subject, he was among the conference's featured speakers. Islam is the fastest-growing religion in the world, with 1.2 billion devotees, with Ellis reporting its growth at 2.75 percent per year. By some accounts, Muslims will overtake the current 1.8 billion Christians by 2020. In America, where there are an estimated 7 million followers, Islam is growing at a 6 percent annual rate. White Americans are the fastest-growing segment of U.S. Islam, and 80-85 percent of all U.S. Muslims consider themselves former Christians. If present trends continue, every major U.S. city will be predominantly Muslim by 2020, Ellis warned. "We must understand that there is a comprehensive plan in progress to Islamicize America and the West," said Ellis, noting that since 1973 the Organization of Islamic Conference has spent about $105 billion in this effort, much of it funded by Middle East oil revenues. ---------------------------------------------- S-1 (laughs to himself) if only ---------------------------------------------- If this troubles Christians, as it should, they need not look at Islam's success, but at Christianity's failure, Ellis said. "The church in America has reduced the Gospel of the Kingdom to peddling personal fire insurance. As I talk to Muslims who have left the church, I find that they don't feel the church addresses their issues and needs -- yet the Bible speaks to every one of them." Two axioms must guide Christian thinking about Islam, Ellis said. First, Islam is a system, while Muslims are people. Christians must challenge Islam and love Muslims. Second, there are three things a Muslim has no defense against -- the prayers of the saints, the love of the saints and the wise application of the Word of God to their core issues. "I find among Muslims a sincere desire to be right with God -- especially among American converts," Ellis said, noting that he has personally seen more than 1,800 leave Islam and place their trust in Christ, often at great risk to their lives since Islam teaches that leaving the religion is a capital offense. Ellis described Islam as a "works-righteousness treadmill. There is no assurance of salvation -- with the possible exception of dying in jihad." While many Muslims ultimately embrace the Gospel because of its message of God's grace, Ellis said the church has not adequately prepared believers to share that message. "We have neglected the teachings of the Bible. I suspect Islam is rising, not because of the strength they have, but because of the retreat of the church." Ellis said what's happening in America -- the decline of the church -- is what already has happened in other parts of the world. "People used to say Islam would never take hold in the Holy Land because Christianity was too strong. But look at Jerusalem, where the Mosque of Omar, the third most holy place in Islam, sits atop the ruins of the temple where Jesus taught. "People used to say Islam would never take hold in Antioch, where Jesus' disciples were first called Christians. But today it's in the grip of Islam. "People used to say Islam would never take hold in Asia Minor, where the seven churches of Revelation were. But today this is Turkey, and Turkey is a Muslim nation. The same was said about North Africa, where Islam reigns today. Can anyone say America is safe as a Christian nation?" Still, Ellis is hopeful. He said if Christians return to the Bible, embrace and engage Muslims in loving dialogue, the Gospel message will water the "dry well" of Islam. "At the end of the day, Isaiah 55:11 is still true -- God's Word will not return to Him void," Ellis said. "I count on the Word of God to do its work, if we will do ours." --30-- LifeWay and NAMB will host a second National Conference on Islam Sept. 19-21 at LifeWay's Glorieta Conference Center in New Mexico.

Photo titles: A PILGRIM'S WALK and RELIGIONS MEET. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Now i dont no about you guys but i thought the author ((a supposed expert on islam, i have never heard of him before )) comes across to me as being distraught and speaks of delusions, lol at one point claiming to have personaly met 1800 ppl who had turned away from Islam. I think the fact that they proposes organising and actively challaging muslims in 'loving way' shows a fear that might exist in the minds of promonant Americans. A fear that manifest's itself into every way the inter-act with amercian muslims, and worse yet as we know dictate foriegn policy. [ September 02, 2003, 01:30 AM: Message edited by: Admin ]
