Since I was a kid I wanted to watch "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind" by Steven Spielberg. Start the movie and first thing that comes up?

Note the black on white/white on black for the numbers - inversion and opposites. 3 propellers.
When the little boy's record player starts playing. Lyrics begin "... of the shape of a square if you really want..." SQUARING THE CIRCLE

1. Another way to look at it- NSE was one of best-performing markets IN THE WORLD in 2017.

But 2018 has been generally bad for EMs around the world, in part because US has been raising rates. As of Oct: China down 13%, India 10%, S/Africa 25%, Argentina 23%, Brazil 17%.

2. Very convenient to quote $ valuation without accounting for a currency devaluation, LOL. Account for the devaluation & your argument becomes considerably weaker

3. A lot of what Nigeria is going through is by no means unique - in fact by EM standards we doing better than many
4. On a lighter note, @ChikeMustafa, what you’re doing with this tweet is trying to use dry bread to soak up our hard-earned stew, LOL. We will not take it 😀

.As @ThatsMrNeil points out: Let's take a walk down Veterans Affairs memory lane with the @CPC_HQ and Top Gun O'Toole. You remember the Top Gun, right? He claims to be a staunch defender of Veteran's right, yet he and the Conservative Party failed Canada's Vets. #thread #cdnpoli
.Remember when > Harper govt shut down 9 Veterans Affairs offices to save $3.78 million & the same year increased its advertising budget by more than $4 million to buy playoff hockey ads? We sure remember those crying, elderly vets looking to be heard by the VA minister. #cdnpoli
.@ThatsMrNeil makes a good point here: Remember when Auditor general Michael Ferguson found the Conservative government and Top Gun O'Toole was failing returning injured veterans by imposing up to eight months waiting time for mental health help?

#Thread: Rough translation on Rajini's recent statement on RMM activities.

I'd like to clarify the false rumors stating RMM works are happening without my permission. All activities regarding RMM are happening with my knowledge & permission.

#RajinikanthPoliticalRevolution
Already by last year May month, I said that "I won't allow people near me who have thoughts of getting posts & earning money when I enter politics. So, those people stay away right now."

#RajinikanthPoliticalRevolution #Thread #Rajinikanth
Didn't say it for word-sake. We are entering politics to bring out a new political culture for a good political change. If we've to do politics like others, why should we enter politics?

(THREAD) 1. MEET Estela and Nicolas. Today they got married. For anyone else this would be just a picture of a normal wedding day, but for these two, there is much more than meets the eye. For them, this is a story of the triumph of love and hope.
2. 3 weeks ago I was approached by someone at my parish.
-“Father, there is a couple who wants to get married.”
-“I am glad to hear that. Tell them to call me & we will set up a meeting.”
-“Well” she said, “this is the thing. They are in the hospital. Could you come please?”
3. I went to visit them, only to find out that Estela, a beautiful 26 year old woman, had cancer that spread all over her body. Doctors give her a limited time of life. I saw her husband to be, by her side, with a sad smile in his eyes, asking me for hope and a miracle.
