I just came back from a local restaurant nearby, I was hungry as hell and
thought it would be wise to catch a quick break.

... While I was at the
restaurant eating, a mad man came in and walked straight to the cashier
and stood quietly.
Below is the conversation between the cashier and the
mad man:
Cashier: Kaif inta? (How are you?)
Mad man: Wallahi miskeen ana bas (By God I am just a poor fellow)
Cashier: Inta dayir ta'akul shunu tayyib (What would you like to eat
then?)
Mad man: {Stood quiet}
The cashier ordered a meal for the mad man.
At this point in time, all I am
thinking of is the health hazard.
The mad man, took his meal and sat
exactly on a chair next to a man. To tell you the fact, I lost my appetite, but
then I learnt a very important lesson about life. The cashier who
happened to be the owner of the restaurant was ready to loose all his
customers to feed this hungry, homeless soul.

As I was struggling to with my food, I heard a whisper in the deepest part
of my being saying:

And as for the begger, do not repel.[Qur'an 93:10]

Then my mind raced some thousands of kilometers the opposite side of
the world, America, land of the free. Imagin some random mad man
walking into some random restaurant in Washinton DC, imagine the
response of the restaurant management, imagine the response of the
people eating in it, I assure you that restaurant will never see the daylight
till the end of this world. Yet they point accusing fingers thousands of kilometers and call Sudanese terrorists. Now considering how the Sudanese in the Khartoum the Capital of Sudan
treat their mad people, how do you think they will treat their fellow
healthy brothers?

To tell you the truth, you will be amazed at the way Sudanese treat
people, be you a foreigner or son of the soil, and all these hospitality is
built into their culture as a result of Islam. If this is what terrorism is all
about, then I am proud to be a terrorist myself

Lol nice post but you only assume that they would throw the 'mad man' out of an American restaurant. Besides why did you draw a conclusion from one experience in a country filled to its brim with problems which directly contradict your claim?

All the same it is an inspiring post, you just need to temper it with a dose of reality.

The 2nd is ILL!!! I don't care if he got restrained by Oro still, the fact that his chakra went Conqueror's Haki right there was too boss!! Also Kishi just wasted sooo much space doing the whole Uchiha/Senju nonsense, I guess the only bright spark here was the 2nd and his take-no-prisoners attitude.

Vicotex: hey nigga watch what u re typing
Haki got notting to do with riakage cos haki is used 4 ppl that have low WILL and again gear 2 stand no chance against riakage lightning amour and gear 3 no comment for it

U just spoke about the conqueror's haki alone, there are 3 types. Plus Luffy is Rubber, electricity doesn't touch him, Haki or no haki.
Types of Haki
Haki is separated into three categories, or "colors": Kenbunshoku Haki (observation haki, see the opponents and their move shortly before they make it), which grants users a sixth sense of the world around them and limited precognitive abilities[19]; Busoshoku Haki (armament haki, strengthens bodies for defense and offense moves), which allows the user to use their spirit as armor to defend against attacks or to make their own attacks more potent; and Haoshoku Haki (conqueror's haki, intimidate the consciousness outta weaker willed people), a rare type of Haki only one in a million can use which grants the user the ability to overpower the will of others. Most people who can use Haki tend to have a type they are better at and as a result focus on that type. However, a person can improve their abilities with all the types of Haki, it just requires more work.[2]

FreeGlobe:
Yes but he is just 64 and that will disqualify him. Nobody would want a lifetime Pope especially when you are black. So Cardinal Arinze is ahead if a black Pope will happen.

WTF is a black pope? Speak correctly abeg

And the award for Playa of the year goes to...Adnan! The Pakistani-Italian lover

tayoccu: Sandime raikage(A,s father), or Yondime (A)?

Lol, I meant A, the 4th. Personally I think Luffy beats Aii hands down but for fun let's analyse.

Arsenal:
A:Jutsu
Body Flicker Technique
Double Lariat
Drop Kick (Anime only)
Nintaijutsu
Lightning Oppression Horizontal
Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop (Manga only)
Lightning Release Armour
Shadow Clone Technique


Luffy:
RUBBER.

I have to be honest, Luffy already fought someone with virtually all A's moves and skill; ENEL, who was basically made of electricity and Luffy trashed the life out of him and that was much before Luffy got his power-ups. Admittedly Luffy could not take out Enel but with his new powers (Haki, gears 2 and 3) he is sure to hurts the Raikage really bad.

Luffy wins 10 out of 10 times here.

Not being sanctimonious here but this was belly churning to read. It is just barbaric to imagine and I thank God I was born in these times. I don't think I will suffer anyone who tries this with anybody I am close to or I have knowledge about

Redmosquito:
This is faker than fake!
Even the pic proves it. Lightning is one fast phenomenon. Wat are the chances of the guy actually pointing his camera at the dome and anticipating a strike.
Haaaaa! So dumb fake! I think the photographer is actually trying to insult our IQ.

I'm reading some comments and I've had to modify my post for more clarification.
Pope retires on monday, there is no news of a storm or anything like that.
If there was a storm on that same day, the whole would know, trust me, they would take it as a sign.
A man sets his camera idly in front of the dome on the day that the pope retired, no storm and anything. And he catches pic of a lightning strike.
First of all, why did he point his cam at the dome on that prticular day?
He is a vatican photographer, what is there that he has not snapped a million times.
Or was he anticipating a strike in a clear weather?
The whole thing is boxed up, like a pack of dumb lies.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/lightning-strikes-vatican-on-the-day-the-pope-1704295

Lol bros you strong oh! Do you think the Pope is the last air bender that he can call down lightening at will? You conspiracy strong gan, Sango in the vatican!!!!!

@Post, it happened. that's all there is to it.

The dullness of this thread during 'off season' is the reason why I keep suggesting we make comparisons between CHARACTERS of SIMILAR traits from Naruto and other popular animes. For now I would dare suggest 3rd Raikage vs Luffy, due mostly to their direct approaches in fighting and similar power ups. I will beg peeps not to bother if u havent seen at laest 50 eps of each ANIME, also this if u dont want to join in dont, dont be a turd and make silly comments

Seunn11: The killers need not be northerners. Can't some tribalists from the jewist tribe do it in order to destroy the north? Watch your back.

Borrow small brain abeg, American pop culture is not the voice of God.

Scharck: i was going thru this page narutobase.net/Naruto-Birthday-List.html and saw sth weird. kabuto has his bday listed as Feb 29. Feb 29?

A leap year, essentially it marks people born then as special

biolabee: My own is how come the inventor of the edo tensei could not break out of his jutsu when orochiwere did it
And madmara could do it when itachi undid the edo tensei

He just woke and is observing, there is no reason to assume he cannot break through the ET cos that is the express prerequisite listed by Madara. The 2nd can break it I am sure, but he would want to discern his enemies from his allies before he strikes, besides there is no indication that Orochimaru would want to use these guys as weapons against Konoha cos in the face of that raging war such an idea seems so trivial and pointless.

Omo Nigeria is without hope or reason, Igbos cannot get along with Yourubas, Yorubas don't give a mite for the Middle belt and the Middlers would die before they accept they are anything close to Hausas and the Hausas see the best Igbo is a dead Igbo...

I no longer have a tribe

eyoniggar: I have some questions for those peeps that can predict and guess well.

1: Where's Yamato and does any1 think he would still show up anytime soon?
2: Karin has been arrested by the intel team, where is she? Still in the leaf village?
3: Where are the other 5 kages that the perfect susano knocked out? I mean after so many episodes that would have lasted weeks, are they still on a long thing?
4: Kabuto has also been left out, although the izanami might be hard to break out from, and the oro snake chakra he sucked back might leave him irrelevant, bt is that the end of him? Eish! Kish tell us more of these peeps.

@ my peepo, I really think Kishi is trying to make the [b]last living Uchiha (saske) [/b]more important and prominent, reason why the flashing of the EMS was more of a procacious scene regardless of the fact that he was standing in front of kages than can do away with him in a jiffy. Anyways............

Shisui is still alive

tayoccu:

1. [s]Tobirama has a Kiba-like personality;[/s]
2. Oro isn't pure evil (like people make him seem), he just wants power, so I see him setting them on madara (who is a bigger threat to him than the shinobi alliance);
3. Like Sasuke can stop them if they want to join the war, the idjit on mangekyu like say na him papa mate he dey follow talk. I see him being biittch slapped if he misbehaves;
4. Is it me or Hashirama has a Narutoish personality?

I seriously not gree that one. You know say Kiba na serious mumu bah? Tobirama has an utterly professional look about him, henceforth he is my favourite shinobi but I have to say, Hashirama's character development was fantastic. he seems like a Jiraiya/Naruto mix. Tobirama is more 3rd Raikage, real hardcore!

This chapter was fine, but Saskay's weak questions kinda dragged it for me, wetin the guy wan know way Itachi and Madara never tell am? Obviously he is just looking for justification for the next utterly stupid move he will make

rapmike: while we wait for the next release(and even after that), i have another question/quiz to ask
out of all the student/teacher fights which one do you think is the best?
1. kakashi vs sasuke
2.minato vs obito(tobi)
3.Pain vs jiraiya
4.hiruzen sarutobi vs orochimaru
5.hiruzen sarutobi vs 1st and 2nd hokage
6.team asuma vs asuma(endo asuma)
7.sasori vs granny chiro
8.muu vs oonki
also you can add any one that is absent that you like

Its most def Pein vs Jiraiya, that was a jutsu galore abeg! And it introduced sage mode to us, next would be Hiruz3n vs Oro and the earlier kages.

Prof Corruption: NSF's position is in order. There is no merit being applied anywhere, it's a clear case of nepotism.

RESPONSE TO GROSNAMM'S ALLEGATIONS ON IHEJIRIKAIt has come to our notice that there is a campaign by some unscrupulous and unpatriotic elements whose intentions appear to be bent on destabilizing the Nigerian military and nation at large. This campaign is being propagated in the form of a spurious article being circulated that alleges that the Nigerian Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Onyeabor Azub...uike Ihejirika is on some sort of sinister and clandestine operation to “Igbonise” the Nigerian Army. The COAS has been accused of selectively promoting only Igbos at the expense of others. Well, nothing can be further from the truth, and this will be demonstrated in a very clear and dispassionate analysis in rebuttal to the openly biased and ethnically tinged attempt by some disgruntled elements.What this hatchet job of an article has done is to selectively focus on the promotion of four officers, and then proceed to make bold claims that these promotions were ethnically motivated because the said officers were of Igbo origin, and then conjure up a justification of why their promotions were ethnically motivated by employing a lot of hyperbole and incredulous reach in drawing conclusions from far-fetched inferences. The elements behind this very dishonest article have done this while ignoring the holistic picture of all promotions within the different cadres of the army. They focused on the promotions of Brigadiers Ugwu of the Ordinance Corps, Nwaogbo of the armored corps, Agha Okoro of the Supply and Transport Corps, and Chioba of the Corp of Electrical and Mechanical Engineers only. How can this be a complete picture when 43 Brigadiers where promoted Major Generals in 2011 and 22 promoted in 2012?Now let’s examine the promotion exercise of 2011 based on available information:On November 10 2011 the Vanguard published the following story on Army promotions:The Nigerian Army Council has approved the promotion of 25 major- generals and 43 brigadier-generals, the largest number ever promoted at a go.Following the recommendation of the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant-General Azubuike Ihejirika, those elevated from Brigadier Generals (one star) to Major-Generals (two stars) are Director of Army Public Relations, Brigadier-General R.I.D Isa; Director of Military Intelligence, Brigadier-General A.T. Jibrin; Director of Operations at Army HQ, Brigadier General G.A. Wahab and Defence Adviser, New York, Brigadier General G. Audu.Others promoted Major Generals are Brig-Gen. K.C. Osuji, Brig-Gen. F.S. Owonibi, Brig-Gen. Agha-Okoro, Brig-Gen. D.D. Kitchner, Brig-Gen. B.T. Oginni, Brig-Gen. E.R. Chioba, Brig-Gen. J.M. Ogidi, Brig-Gen. S.U. Labaran, Brig-Gen. A.A. Martins, Brig-Gen. A. Chukwu, Brig-Gen. M. Idris, Brig-Gen. L.N.K. Banjiran, Brig-Gen. S.U. Audu and Brig-Gen. E.F. Abejirin.Also promoted two star-generals are Brig-Gen. T.O. Umar, Brig-Gen. H.G. Aminu, Brig-Gen. I. Sani, Brig-Gen. A.G. Ewanshia-Oloni and Brig-Gen. P.K. Ikumonein.A statement confirming the promotions was signed by the Chief of Staff, Army Public Relations Department, Col. Usman Abdul.Among the Colonels promoted to the rank of Brigadier-Generals are Colonel Leo Erabor, PSO to the Chief of Army Staff, Col. O.O. Adeleke, Col. J. Alexander, Col. T.K. Golau, Col. M.M. Dan-Ali, Col. L.O. Adeosun, Col. E.A. Ransome-Kuti, Col. J.T. Abubakar and Col. S.E.U. Ekanem.A statement confirming the promotions was signed by the Chief of Staff, Army Public Relations Department, Col. Usman Abdul.Fredie I. Ude Now we can begin to see the falsehood being peddled in the allegation that Ihejirika’s promotions were ethnically motivated to favour the Igbos as the list provided shows no such trend. Let’s take a count of Brigadiers and Major Generals promoted against their ethnicities since this is where the focus of the disgruntled elements seems to lie. Below is a list of 23 Brigadier Generals promoted to the rank of Major Generals in 2011. It will be instructive to compare the number Igbo officers promoted to the number of officers of other ethnic groups promoted:1. Director of Army Public Relations, Brigadier-General R.I.D Isa - North2. Director of Military Intelligence, Brigadier-General A.T. Jibrin - North3. Director of Operations at Army HQ, Brigadier General G.A. Wahab - North4. Defence Adviser, New York, Brigadier General G. Audu.- North5. Brig-Gen. K.C. Osuji---------- SE6. Brig-Gen. F.S. Owonibi------ SW7. Brig-Gen. Agha-Okoro------- SE8. Brig-Gen. D.D. Kitchner- (Unverified)9. Brig-Gen. B.T. Oginni------- SW10. Brig-Gen. E.R. Chioba------ SE11. Brig-Gen. J.M. Ogidi----- (Unverified)12. Brig-Gen. S.U. Labaran--- North13. Brig-Gen. A.A. Martins---- SW14. Brig-Gen. A. Chukwu------ SE15. Brig-Gen. M. Idris--------- North16. Brig-Gen. L.N.K. Banjiran---- (Unverified)17. Brig-Gen. S.U. Audu----- North18. Brig-Gen. E.F. Abejirin---- SW19. Brig-Gen. T.O. Umar----- North20. Brig-Gen. H.G. Aminu---- North21. Brig-Gen. I. Sani--------- North22. Brig-Gen. A.G. Ewanshia-Oloni----SS23. Brig-Gen. P.K. Ikumonein----------SSOut of 23 names only four (4) appear to be Igbo names; Osuji, Agha-Okoro, Chioba and Chukwu; now that is only 17% of the number of Brigadiers promoted to Major Generals in 2011 as published by the Vanguard in November of 2011. The SE is one of 6 geopolitical zones in the country, and simple math tells us that if geopolitical zones were taken into account during promotions of officers, as it should in such a polarized and tribalised country as Nigeria, that is exactly 17% of promotions per cadre per geographical zone, given there are personnel from each zone available to be promoted. So what is the source of this contrived brouhaha? Is this not much ado about nothing? Who could be behind this, but those bent on destabilizing Nigeria for whatever selfish and nefarious ends they may have?For good measure, below is a summary of the 2012 promotion details as published in National Mirror on December 20 2012:Fredie I. Ude Director, Army Public Relations Department, Brigadier General Bola Koleoso, who was promoted to the rank of Major General, in a statement, listed those promoted to the substantive rank of Major General to include:1. Brigadier General NO Ojiji of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC);2. Brigadier General HA Salihu; Commandant, Depot Nigerian Army,3. Brigadier General SZ Uba of the Defence Headquarters4. Brigadier General ET Nienge of the Nigerian Army School of Supply and Transport.Brigadier General David Enetie of Headquarters Infantry Corps Centre,5. Brigadier General Mashudy O. Adekanye of the Nigerian Army Ordinance School, Commander of 23 Brigade Nigerian Army6. Brigadier General John N. Nwaoga and Brigadier General Patrick G. Ogah of Army Headquarters Directorate of Training and Operations.Brigadier General Donald MN Oji of Nigerian Army Signals School7. Brigadier General Tanko Y. Gaiya of the AFCSC8. Brigadier General Bamidele O. Ologundudu of the Nigerian Defence College (NDC)9. Brigadier General Abbas O. Adekanye of the Central Workshop; Commander 1 Brigade Nigerian Army, Brigadier General Tamunomieibi I. Dibi; Commander 2 Brigade10. Brigadier General Tukur Y. Buratai; Commander 4 Brigade11. Brigadier General Obi A. Umahi12. Brigadier General Chuckwudi BB Odunukwe of the Directorate of Data Processing; Defence Attache to China13. Brigadier General Sulaiman D. Aliyu14. Brigadier General Junaid S. Bindawa of the Nigerian Army Armoured School (NAAS)15. Brigadier General Obidah T. Ethan serving in the United Nations Mission in Liberia (UNMIL)16. Brigadier General Obasina A. Ogunbiyi of the Nigerian Army Medical Corps17. Brigadier General Friday M. Airende of the Special Vehicle PlantNew GOCs and Head Quarters:- GOC of 1 Division(Kaduna, Maj Gen.Wahab ---Northerner- GOC of 2 Division(Ibadan, Oyo, Maj-Gen. Ahmed ---Northerner- GOCs of 3 Division(Jos, Plateau), Maj-Gen. Ebiobowei Awala----SS- GOC of 81 Division(Victoria Island, Lagos) is Maj-Gen. Obi Umahi---SE- GOC of 82 Division(Enugu), Maj-Gen Ashimiyu Olaniyi -------SWAgain here there is no sign of inequity in the promotions favouring any particular ethnic group as alleged. In fact two officers who were alleged not to have been promoted – Nienge and Adekanye are on this list, and this is not even an exhaustive list of all promoted! So what is the game here? Obviously it is not one that bodes well for the stability of the country.The article is fraught with hateful language and innuendo; several officers promoted who happen to be Igbo are referred to as “the Igbo boy” . There is so much warped logic and impossible extrapolations and conclusions drawn from inconclusive analysis that will make one dizzy, for example, one Col Soloye is alleged not to have been promoted because of his “outstanding personal and professional records”.How preposterous!They continue this incredulous reach by further stating that “The plan here, just as in the case of Oyekan, is to slow down this rising star who might get in the way of Igbo officers “destined” by General Ihejirika to rise above him”.Again, how preposterous! What is the source or proof of this bold conclusion? Unless this article was produced by superhuman mind readers this is pure baseless conjecture of the highest order. It is important to note at this juncture that none of the officers’ records who have been described as “outstanding” and being overlooked for promotion have been independently vetted. These are just claims by faceless disgruntled elements. Until independently vetted, they remain just claims. Another example of this superhuman mind-reading faculty demonstrated in this article is the case of one Col. Jidda, who for whatever reason was not promoted at a certain time, but the mind readers have gone ahead to explain that “the idea is for Jidda to wait for the Igbo boy to graduate from NIPPS so they can be presented next year with other officers from NDC course 21. Most likely, some Igbo officers would then edge out Jidda who will then suffer the faith of Col Oyekan and Col Soleye”.

ritux: I think we are over celebrating this victory. I know how important it is to us but let's wait till the trophy comes. I hope we defeat mali the before we even talk about trophy sef

The thing tire me oh, we forget that Ghana and Mali are far from walkovers, make we no over eeah with mouth oh

chucky234: They are mourning the death of Drogba,no sorry dream of lifting the AFCON trophy in SA.

Lol they are mourning your father's death...no sorry, the dream of lifting the AFCON trophy is SA.

Bro I don't to insult but there some kinds of things that won't pass as jokes at all.

I really wish I could run media and publicity for the Taliban, they shoot themselves in the foot with virtually every move they make.

The LokI: really dumb and selfish and inconsiderate kid. What if his parents had a traumatic medical incident?? I trust my 9ja parents, if u try am eh the kind beating u go receive u go dy hope make world end. Nonsense!

Omo ur vehemence knows no bounds. Is it because his parents were over pampering him that he would fear their reaction in the teachers' conference? This guy just didnt plan it out abeg, he ahould hid better and made his people worry a little more

Hehehehehehehehehehehehhehehehehehehhe



Congrats Winners.

RICHIE BOI: what is with the youth of today and this get rich quick syndrome. youth of today want to drive range rover and live in big houses at the expense of their parents.

When I check your profile name the irony is too sharp to miss

plainmirror: Pls who is jimny aiyk? Is he a musician?

Don't even joke about that, Jim Iyke is NOT a musician!

Small question, is that Goku looking like an underwear model

Anyway I am an avid anime lover and to prioritize my favourite would seem thus- One piece and Death Note are the bomb, I don't see any close second but maybe Ninja Scroll and Lupin the Movies series with Detective Conan come near. Naruto is a distant third paired with Full metal Alchemist and Rounin Kenshi. I cannot bring myself to watch Fairytale but it seems to have some ill fight scenes after that comes Van Hellsing.

The absolute worse anime I ever watched is Bleach, for there to be worse anime than that thing it would have to be produced by either the world's worse writer or its best.

tayoccu:

Dude which chapter did it happen in the manga?
It its not in the manga, it is a FILLER!!!

http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/549

Maybe you missed it earlier, but its there

Howevernis responsible for this will not derail the one achievement GEJ would register in Jesus' name!

@Jidespm your work quite impressive but in truth I don't even like the original but your art did it justice.

tayoccu:

99.99% of stuff that happen in fillers do not have any bearing what so ever on the main story, so don't let he shisui thing upset u.

It was not a filler its the anime esp where Naruto and Bee face ET Itachi and Nagato and Itachi said Shisui is alive somewhere.

I actually agree that there should be more Uchiha somewhere, I mean Itachi is tough but the uchiha are bloody specialist clan and should nor have been so easy to wipe out.

Lol, I love the fact that Snoop's just having fun with his life now. No undue stress, just fun and games and he deserves it

FXKing2012: The victory over Ivory Coast is yet another achievement of GEJ.
GEJ for 2015!?

Over him papa dead body!
