Is "JesusWeen" the christian alternative to "Halloween"?


Nothing stirs up more debate than issues that create a sense of contention between those of a particular belief system and popular view. As with most religions, Christianity has always had to answer questions when taking stands for or against popular culture. So I was intrigued when I read a column in a newspaper, stating the existence of "JesusWeen",

Have you killed your Gadaffi?

Muammar Gadaffi - the king of kings

Is he dead? Or is it just pranks been played on human intelligence? Another propaganda sponsored by the "powers that be" to make us believe what they want us to?

These are questions that we may or may not get clear answers to. But one thing is certain - a group of people had enough of over 40 years of one man's tyranny and decided it was time to rise up! And they were ready to pay the price with their blood! And yes, they did!


What price have you paid to get what you want?

Movie Review: Real Steel - The Fight to Survive

"If you get one shot, make it real" 
 A mix of excitement, emotion plus a touch of life lessons - that's what you get from the movie REAL STEEL. It's not often you get this kind of mix in an action flick. But what amazes me the most is the connection you feel with the characters portrayed - even the robots!

So what's so real about the steel?

Event Review: Jemi's Album launch with Alexander Victor, Dayo Bello, His Levites band, Mayowa, Sophy-yah, MC Mark, Shola Victor Sajowa and David Aliyu

When "African" meets "contemporary" and you add a spice of jazz with a plate full of soulful  rhythms, what do you get? That was my personal experience at the launch of Jemi Nwadike's album - "His Perfect Will" on Saturday, October 15 2011 at the Greenwich West Community & Arts Centre.

My first observation was the music from the band. When you've got "His Levites" band in the house, trust you get all the groove and perfection! It was absolutely on point. (I still wonder where the drummer gets his energy from though, redbull or "heavendove"? lol).

Blackberry Customer vs Apple Fan vs Android Fanatic

Admit it, you belong to one of these categories! The world is driven by the smartphone craze [that is for those who haven't caught the tablet bug yet :-)]. I came across a tweet recently during the "blackberry blackout" about blackberry customers and apple fans. Sounded quite interesting, so I set out to discover my personal analysis.

Blackberry Customer
The last 2-3 days were probably "unbearable" for obsessive pinging machines (I mean people who use blackberry messenger). And yes, some had a needed break from funny and ridiculous broadcasts (I still wonder why some think blackberry won't contact a customer directly but will decide to use a broadcast on blackberry messenger to send messages...ridiculous isn't it?).
