The irony of it all














This are powerful women in africa who can afford any salon in the whole world, but just look at their heads, ladies, wigs, weaves, and the likes is not a sign of beauty or class, men love natural staff, do something

if you can afford some clean water, place to sleep, some food, and you still complain then you havent seen this...!!!

What 21st century woman is all about.




21st century woman

  I am often perturbed when men act all shocked and heartbroken when it “supposedly” dawns on them that the 21-century women are only after their money. By now men must have learnt that women get attracted to established and moneyed men. In fact, such men are always spoilt for choice because women are always nagging them for relationships and marriage. It is not all about women being greedy or selfish like men like to believe, that is just how it is. In fact, there is even a scientific explanation. Women will always go for the man who representation of power and stability. It is a survival tactic imbedded in the female DNA that enables her to pick out the best provider for future children. Gentlemen, differently put, it’s the law of the Jungle, nothing personal. You do not hear us women complaining when in all our glory we are quickly summarised and chosen based on superficial qualities that range from our skin tone, to the size of our posteriors. And yes it is a cruel world but we have accepted that is how men see things, so much so that we have even come up with an excuse for this particular flaw in men, that they are visual beings. So we ask men to extend the same courtesy to us and stop acting like there is something wrong when we opt for financially stable men. We have nothing personal against broke or men or those who will only be a somebody someday. Expecting a woman to love you and remain optimistic that one day you will make more money is as good as expecting it to rain popcorns. Forget it, it won’t happen. Some expectations are just not realistic! Over the years, while women have learnt to adapt to the ever changing modern man, men have seen no need to adopt. Women have learned to accept men with everything from their pink vitenge trousers, to their weekly visits to the manicurist but men have stuck to their old expectations from women. Women have even lowered some of their expectations all in the name of love, men on the other hand seem to be caught up in some warped up view of how women should behave. Men have completely refused to accept the
21 century woman in all her glory.

Why John Kerry gave Russia's foreign minister potatoes Updated Tuesday, January 21st 2014 at 10:00 GMT +3 0 inShare Adapted from http://news.yahoo.com Being the United States' top diplomat is an incredibly difficult job that requires one to be smooth, tough and cool in knowing that you're always one misstep away from starting an international incident. But on the plus side, you sometimes get to give potatoes as gifts. Secretary of State John Kerry, meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Paris, presented his Russian counterpart with two extremely large Idaho potatoes. Not exactly a PlayStation 4, but there was a good reason for the gift. NBC News reports that Kerry said that Lavrov had mentioned Idaho potatoes during a previous meeting. Via NBC News: Russia's foreign minister seemed to appreciate the gesture, smiling and remarking that the gifts were "impressive." The Russians, not the type to receive a gift without having one to give, presented State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki with a pink ushanka hat, for keeping warm during the Sochi Olympics. In 2009, then- Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton presented Lavrov with a red "reset button" intended to symbolize a desire to restart the two nations' relationship on a positive track after a split over Russia's invasion of Georgia. Often, the United States is on the receiving end of unusual gifts. For example, in 2012, President Barack Obama received a saber with a 34-inch blade from Mongolian President Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj. For a full list of gifts received from foreign sources by employees of the executive branch of the U.S. government, check out this long — but fascinating -list. A nice perk, but keep in mind that just because you get a gift doesn't always mean it's yours to keep. Via State.gov: GO TO PAGE 1 2 Next »

So 9ice Is Finally Quitting Music?!?



Singer 9ice 1Most Nigerian musicians, doing Afro-Pop, Hip-Hop and Rap, do not have enough stamina to stay in the game for too long and that’s because they sing all the words in their brain pretty fast. But within the short period of their reign, they spend carelessly, buying cars and stuffs that depreciates fast.
This “sickness” seem to have caught up with singer 9ice. See his latest confession below…
I’m leaving music, I need to go into something more challenging. Music is no longer competitive for me, I’ve done all that needs to be done in music,” 9ice told a reporter.
How can 9ice say he has achieved all there is to achieve in music between 2008 and 2013, in just five years? I hope younger musicians will see the message in this development and learn from them?

Nigerian musicians, leaving music, Afro-Pop, Hip-Hop,  Rap, 9ice,

Uganda's anti-gay laws blocked by President Museveni

An asylum seeker from Uganda covers his face with a paper bag in order to protect his identity as he marches with the LGBT Asylum Support Task Force during the Gay Pride Parade in Boston, Massachusetts June 8, 2013. Some gay Ugandans have fled the country, saying they are being persecuted
Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has refused to approve a controversial bill to toughen laws against homosexuals.
He has written to the parliamentary speaker criticising her for passing it in December without a quorum.
Homosexuals were "abnormal" and could be "rescued", Uganda's private Monitor paper quotes the president's letter as saying.
The bill includes life imprisonment for homosexual acts and also makes it a crime not to report gay people.
The BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga in the capital, Kampala says the promotion of homosexuality - even talking about it without condemning the lifestyle - would also be punishable by a prison term.
Mr Museveni said the bill was forced through despite his advice to shelve it until the government had studied it in depth, the Monitor reports.
"Even with legislation, they will simply go underground and continue practicing homosexuality or lesbianism for mercenary reasons," he is quoted as saying.
The president is aware that if he signs the bill there will be an international outcry, which could see some countries suspend aid to the country, our reporter says.
Human rights activists say the bill highlights the intolerance and discrimination the gay community faces in Uganda.
One gay activist was killed in 2011, although the police denied he was targeted because of his sexuality.
The bill has been condemned by world leaders since it was mooted in 2009 - US President Barack Obama called it "odious".
The private member's bill originally proposed the death penalty for some offences, such as if a minor was involved or the perpetrator was HIV-positive, but this was dropped.

Rodgers: Daniel's in starting contention



If selected, Daniel Sturridge is fit and ready to make his first start since recovering from injury when Liverpool take on Aston Villa on Saturday, Brendan Rodgers has confirmed.
The striker returned to action with a bang as a second-half substitute in Sunday's 5-3 victory at Stoke City; creating a goal for Luis Suarez before getting on the scoresheet himself.
After another week's worth of training at Melwood, Rodgers feels Sturridge is fit enough to be considered for a starting berth when Villa come to Anfield this weekend.
The boss told Liverpoolfc.com: "His qualities and fitness, aligned with what I've seen in training, I think show that if we needed him to start, he would be able to."
Despite having not figured since the Merseyside derby on November 23 due to an ankle problem sustained in training, Sturridge looked fresh as he made his comeback at the Britannia Stadium.
It was a similar scenario at the start of 2013-14 when, despite having his pre-season disrupted by injury, the 24-year-old began the campaign with an immediate impact by firing in each of his first five matches.
Rodgers added: "I think that says everything. He's a boy that is blessed genetically with this wonderful gift of being able to recover - but it's also a mark of his professionalism as well.
"When you've been out for so long, like he was in pre-season, to come back and play as quickly as he did showed how hard he was working in the off-season. And likewise now after the period out.
"He looks after his body, his body fat, his weight and that natural fitness he has, alongside his work, allows him to come back and make the impact he made last week.
"He's again looked very, very good in training, very sharp, and he'll be at a good level come the weekend."

“When I First Came Into Chelsea Dressing Room I Was Shaking All Through” – Mikel Obi’s Touching Memories

playingalongside Obi,” Lampard told the Chelsea official website. ”He’s a top holding midfield player, and for me personally being more attacking in my game it helps to play with someone who has discipline and moves the ball quickly, which Obi can do. He’s one of those players who will not make headlines, but he’s happy to go unrecognised in his work and he has a huge worth for the team when he plays.”
Mikel Obi, who arrived at Stamford Bridge in 2006 from Lyn Oslo, also praised the England international and pointed him out as one of the senior players, who helped him settle in at the club quickly.
“Coming into a big club like Chelsea, as a young 18-year-old from Africa, it was a dream come true. I remember coming into the dressing room and I was shaking all through the first week. The players in there really helped me settle in – John Terry, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and the other African players that were there at the time. I looked at these guys every day and I learned a lot from them, how they act on and off the football pitch, which helped me develop and mature as a person. It was a growing up stage which I never had with any other team. I just jumped straight into this team so I had to learn that way.”
