Sex between consenting homosexual partners is once again illegal in India after the country's Supreme Court overturned a lower court ruling Wednesday.

Four years ago, India's High Court decriminalized such a relationship, in what was then hailed by gay rights groups as a landmark ruling.

The Supreme Court overturned that ruling.

THE present state of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) fleet is a cheerless commentary on the nation's poor maintenance attitude to public utilities and it best illustrates the often-touted truth that government could be bad managers in business.

Barely six years after Lagos commuters expressed relief with the introduction of the BRT scheme, many of the bright red and blue buses have been badly altered and left to deteriorate into first-grade Molues - the rickety buses infamously referred to as a 'moving morgue'.

I thought fashion was made to cover our unclothedness and also make us look beautiful but the reverse is the case now.

It baffles me when l see the way the world is going now especially women fashion. Last week they celebrated right of going out without bra by walking the streets without wearing bra and blouses. Very soon women will be seen in wears like this .

ok carry go.

These are true talk.

Sure, some typical moves — a hair flip here, an eye batted there — will attract a man... some of the time. But you may be surprised at the things guys really can’t resist about women, and some of them are the very qualities women fear will drive men away — from letting a curse word fly loose to leaving all kinds of makeup near his bathroom sink. Here’s why these habits (and others) can actually win a man over...

1. He loves that you indulge at dinnertime.
Guys love women who like to eat — not ladies who say they aren’t hungry and then pick at their date’s food all night.

2. He loves your occasional outbursts.
You may worry that it’s not ladylike, but occasionally letting a curse or rant escape your lips at an unexpected moment can be a major turn-on. “Hearing a woman use profanity out of context gives a guy a shock of adrenaline,

3. He loves that you aren’t a neat freak.
Believe it or not, guys find the proliferation of hair products, accessories and unidentified stuff strewn about your apartment oddly endearing.
Dr. Kerner. “Most men think a pair of boxer shorts and a ratty old T-shirt around the house is your most attractive look.” So don’t spend hours choosing the perfect date-night outfit。

4. He loves your extra padding.
Sure, you’ve heard that men love women with curves, but how about those extra pounds you’ve been trying to sweat off at the gym? There’s a good chance that your guy loves them, too.
regardless of their weight. They theorize that men unconsciously seek this body type because it signals that a woman is able to procreate.

5. He’s fascinated by your knowledge of the things you’re passionate about.
A man becomes fascinated by whatever it is that gets you all hot and bothered — regardless of whether or not he shares the same interests.

6. He loves a good head rub from you.
Don’t get me wrong — men love it when you grope their erogenous zones. But that’s not the only type of touch they crave. Adam, 28, of Roanoke, VA, confesses: “I love how my wife rubs my head at night.” Sweet, yes, but it also feels oh-so-good: home to hundreds of nerve endings, the scalp is an often-neglected zone. And light touches anywhere can achieve a similar effect, since they cause his body to produce vasopressin, a feel-good relaxation hormone that also promotes bonding. Another positive side effect? Initiating any kind of physical contact sends your man the message that you want him just as much as he wants you — and that you truly care about him.

The dud who allowed this thief thief to leave Nigeria should be held responsible if he dosen't come back.

You win a gold medal, you give it a bite, or so goes the current trend among Olympic athletes. The practice dates back to money handlers, but these days Olympians may be disappointed with the results.

Portsmouth administrator Trevor Birch has told ESPN that the club could be liquidated within a fortnight, with Nwankwo Kanu having formally lodged a claim for £3 million in back pay.

Pompey's first-team squad currently numbers 12 players, only eight of whom are senior, and for now manager Michael Appleton is unable to make signings. There is currently a takeover offer on the table from former owner Balram Chainrai, but that is conditional on the eight senior players leaving or accepting substantial pay-cuts.

To prolong the club's existence for as long as possible until a takeover can be secured, Birch has imposed a £5,000-a-week salary cap, which would be a substantial pay-cut for players like Tal Ben Haim, who is on £36,000 a week. The excess would be paid at a later date, but only if the club avoids liquidation, and the chances of doing so are being hindered by the players' refusal to compromise.

"The club is heading for liquidation in just a few weeks, perhaps two weeks if these players don't leave or compromise on their wages," Birch told ESPN on Sunday. "We still have players like Ben Haim, Dave Kitson and Kanu on our books."

To complicate matters, Kanu, the former Arsenal and Nigeria striker, has formally lodged a claim for the arrears on his wages.

"Kanu has served the club notice that he wants to leave but before doing so he wants the money he says is owed to him by the club," Birch said. "These players hold the survival of the club in their hands.

"I must stress it is not their fault as the players didn't get the club into this trouble, but they do now have the ability to get the club out of this mess.

"The problem with everybody is that this club has cried wolf so often that no one believes it will happen, no one believes they will go out of business, but they will in two or three weeks. It is that serious now. The trouble is 'Portsmouth fatigue', but the truth is that the club is now fighting for its life."

The bank is only for Muslims so all Christians should give way.

I guess the money has been used.They are buying time to collect this month's salary and then pay back .

So you have no word for the government that is marginalizing them ?

Umuana, a community in Umuahia North Local Government area of Abia State, which has been in the news recently over government acquisition of land in the community, has been thrown into more confusion. The situation is assuming a dangerous dimension, as women in the community are threatening to go naked if the authorities continue to harass youths and leaders of the community that have been resisting what they termed an illegal land acquisition.

The British Council, Nigeria, has revealed that Nigeria is one of the countries with the highest maternal mortality ratio(MMR), saying the women that were dying were mostly those from the North-East, poor women, female giving birth before age 15 and those with serious genital cuttings, the highest maternal mortality ratio (MMR).

The study titled“Gender In Nigeria Report 2012,” also noted that women’s contribution to economic growth was not captured because they were mostly found in the informal sector, adding that they were underrepresented in the formal sector of the country’s economy.

The report billed for launch today(Thursday) took into cognizance women in both the Northern and Southern part of the country and highlighted the realities of women in Nigeria and made recommendations on policies that could improve their lives.
