birdman: You are confusing issues here. For example, a hunter killing a deer with a high powered rifle would be the least barbaric according to your definition, since the deer would die instantly. However, if that hunter killed the animal for sport, then the hunter is more barbaric, regardless of the method he has chosen. Why? Because he inflicted needless pain and enjoyed it.

That IS the point. Inflicting pain for the purpose of enjoyment, not for food or any other reason. And I wonder about people who enjoy such things - what will thay do to humans when no one is looking, say in a war situation.

Sorry to tell u u really didnt make any good points here. @thoth never said the monkeys were killed just for the fun of watching the animals die; the monkeys were killed for food with the brain eaten first.
I'm sure the rest of the body will be used for meat and hide somewhere along the chain.

People are funny: simply because they dont eat monkey brain so they wanna condemn those eating it.

Anyways, it's human nature to condemn those different from you. It's the same reason the Nazi condemned the Jews to death; the whites condemned the black Africans to slavery; the medieval Spanish Christians condemned the Mexican traditional worshippers to death; the muslims condemn non-muslims to death in different parts of the world, etc etc.
So I'm not surprised when people condemn those who dared to be different - it's just human nature.

Sagamite: You are a person!

A product of a failed education system.

No 1 sign of being a product of a failed education is "I once knew a man"

No 2 sign of being such a product is using men who had emotional and psychological inbalance because of a wife as proof of a man needs a woman for his emotional and psychological balance.

Cretin!

I can spot them in a second and I never hold back. When I call someone a person, trust me, they are fucktards!

...spewing gibberish. You have shown you are long on ignorance and short on intelligence.
Nincompoops like you should be ignored.

@OP, wonder why u kept using "France" and "french" the wrong way in your original post.

And why is it that only ladies wear engagement rings? Why cant men also wear engagement rings so that other ladies will know he's been taken?

The eeeeeediot Sagamite and the male chauvinist dayokanu actually think they are making much of a sense...shows what a sick world we live in.

I once knew a man who could not concentrate at work due to trouble at home with his wife. It got so bad that his performance and productivity dropped drastically that his boss had to querry him. With no improvement he eventually got fired.

There was a pilot who was doing so well in his career and steadily climbing the ladder of success but this came to an abrupt halt when the relationship with his wife went south. He started drinking, and being a taboo in the airline industry, he got caught and got sacked.

There was this bus driver who was having serious issues with his wife at home, this drove him into smoking and massive alcohol consumption. One day while driving, he lost control of the vehicle killing himself and many others. Autopsy report showed he had too much alcohol in his system.

I could go on and on. None of these men ended up buying land and building houses simply because they lacked emotional and psychological support from their wives.

Now who says emotional and psychological support given by wives mean nothing?

It wont surprise me to learn that many of the men in here saying women contribute nothing and thus should leave with nothing are the same ones who treat their wives like objects at home. You think taking such a stance makes you a better man?

aglomar: crap! to think a guy can post this...

Maybe the guy just cares about the lady folks.

how so?

Reverse time instead of speeding it up with these anti-aging pointers.

Stop Aging Yourself!
Despite concerted efforts to erase years, there are things you do every day that have the opposite effect—and you probably don’t even notice you’re doing them.

The colors you wear, how you do your makeup and so much more can make you look older. It’s not easy to spot what you’re doing wrong, especially if it’s become routine, so we’ve rounded up the 10 biggest mistakes with solutions to restore your youthful look.

1. Dyeing Your Hair Blonde
Lighter hair doesn’t go with all skin pigments and can age you, points out Teri Guardino, director of education at Alfaparf Milano, a hair-care brand.

“Most skin becomes sallow or yellow as we get older, so it’s not always recommended to go blonde,” she says.

Instead of matching your hair to your skin tone, counteract it. If you have olive skin, choose a deep, reddish-brown hair color; if you have paler skin, brighten your look with a light brown dye, she suggests.


2. Lifting Too Much at the Gym

No, you shouldn’t stop exercising. But overworking large muscles, such as the triceps, quads and biceps, can cause sagging in the long run, says celebrity fitness instructor Tracy Anderson.

“As connective tissues loosen with age, an overworked aging muscle produces an undesirable skin tone,” she explains.

Focus on accessory muscles around the larger thigh and belly muscles, which can give you a more balanced look. For each group of muscles, use weights under three pounds each and do more reps, Anderson adds.


. Skimping on Deep Conditioning

Stiff, dry hair can be more aging than grays peeking through.

“Our hair needs moisture as we get older,” says Guardino.

So stray a bit from your typical shampoo and conditioner routine, and use richer hair products, including hair masks and deep conditioners, at least once a week. That’ll help your hair become softer and shinier.


4. Over-Exfoliating
While getting rid of dead skin cells is a must, over-exfoliating is a major no-no, says esthetician Lydia Sarfati, founder of Repêchage, a line of spa beauty products.

“When new skin cells are exposed to the elements before they’re ready, skin becomes fragile and looks aged,” she explains.

It’s especially important to avoid harsher forms of exfoliation such as microdermabrasion, highly concentrated chemical peels and laser resurfacing, she adds. Just opt for a gentle facial scrub two to three times per week.


5. Wearing Old Bras
“Many women continue to wear the same size and brand they’ve always worn, without considering that our bodies change as we age,” says Barbara Grufferman, author of The Best of Everything After 50.

She suggests visiting a lingerie store to get professionally fitted. A correctly fitted bra can instantly improve your posture (no hunched-over ladies here!) and the draping of your clothes.


6. Choosing Coffee over Water
No matter which facial moisturizers you use, staying hydrated from the inside is key for glowing skin and helps flush toxins out of your body.

“Double your water intake. When you think you’ve had enough drink more,” advises Grufferman.

Sip about nine glasses of water per day and don’t overdo it on coffee and alcohol, which have a diuretic effect.



7. Applying Heavy Eyeliner
Using harsh eyeliner can instantly make eyes appear smaller, which can add years and highlight wrinkles around your peepers.

“Try a soft pencil that easily can be blended after applied,” says Erica Bishop, a “Beauty Genius” for cosmetics brand Prescriptives.

Blending in eyeliner gives your makeup a more natural look that’s less aging.


8. Wearing Dull Colors

Clothes with gray undertones can wash you out and make you seem older, says Natalie Jobity, an image consultant and author of Frumpy to Fabulous.

“This is especially true about the colors you wear closest to your face, like those in scarves,” she says.

Common hues to avoid: pale lavender, taupe, dusty rose and pale gray.


9. Wearing Baggy Clothes
Even if you’ve gained weight around your middle and are eager to cover up the bulge, choosing very loose clothing to hide the pounds “will backfire and make you look heavier and older than you are,” says Grufferman.

So forget the most forgiving styles. Rather, work with a tailor to create contours in loose-fitting clothing.


10. Overusing Powder and Concealer

Caking on makeup to hide wrinkles and other imperfections can actually accentuate fine lines, says Grufferman. Instead, start off with a lightweight moisturizing foundation and add extra concealer only when “absolutely necessary,” like to cover under-eye circles and discolored spots, she adds. Less is more here.

thoth: there is no difference between cracking the skull when it is alive and cracking it when it is "dead" it all means killing it, whether you killed it by cracking the brain or by cutting its throat you still acomplished the same thing which is taking the life out of it. Unless you are against killing animals i don't see the point of your arguments. Please don't call me sick you pretentious dumb hypocrite.

Yes there is really no difference btw cracking the skull with a club and cutting the throat wt a knife. In fact, using a club to crack the skull is even more humane cos the monkey loses consciousness immediately unlike making the animal go thru the torture of slowly slitting the throat.

dayokanu: I think the only thing that should be considered is what each individual contributed to the asset in question.

You think a judge would be sharing the Lace and Jacquard the woman bought in 1998?

Whats the worth of the Satin lace or Damask bought for 100k in 1998 nowadays?

Sharing should be based on contribution only

Let the woman go with her jewelries and clothes she bought and the man go with the house and land he bought plus the ragged shirt and trousers

How can sharing be done based on contribution when in many cases the man insists his wife stays home to take care of the kids. This is very common in Nigeria.
Now when the woman is forced to be a full housewife, where do you expect her to get the money to contribute from?

Besides, contribution should not be restricted to money alone, women/wives contribute in so many other ways such as providing emotional and psychological support/balance for the kids and husband; she contributes by taking care of the kids and doing home chores. Try calculating the monetary value of these activities by the wife and u will see that the wife contributes so much to developmental projects.

PS: A man can not buy land and build houses if he's not emotionally and psychologically balance, and guess who provides that balance - the wife.

tellwisdom: 80,000 naira na small money na

for where u see 80,000 naira for d entire article? Itz like some pple read wt their nose

dayokanu: baby123, Im back

Why should the properties be shared?

Havent we seen during marriage the husband would be wearing old school clothes to build a house, while the wife is changing wardrobe with everything she earns

In some cases the man pays for everything the woman just use her money to buy clothes creams and use for herself

So whats the rational behind them splitting what the man has worked for denying himself several things in the process while the women was changing clothes

Lemme ask you have you seen the wardrobe of an average naija man and compared it to that of the average Naija woman? Jewelries inclusive
Thats what most women use their income for
So now tell me why the man should have to split his own assets when he too could have been buying clothes but decided to invest it

Yes most men dont spend so much on clothes but many men spend their money drinking beer in bars and carrying/chassing girls all around town while the women toil to cater for the kids and homes?

Illuminati at work....bunch of devil worshippers.

born2fuck: Child support is fully supported but divorced settlement need a thoroughly check, some women in foreign country have used this opportunity exhaust money from their husband by divorce hence increasing the rate of divorce in their economy, this has pushed the white men looking for african lady and hereby become victim of internet fraud.

At first I was very disappointed and surprised seeing such a comment but then I saw your name and the disappointment and surprise simply dissolved.

Insanity: What do you have to say to this; In most marriages in this country, you see the hubby taking care of his in law's problem, funding her siblings' educational fees, taking care of her parents etc you can't expect such man to still settle her after divorce, that's not just fair.

I must admit u made a very solid point here.

I would like to be able to abide by every single precept in the Bible. Or better still be able to relocate to heaven without tasting death like Elijah.

gree-die and xynerise really got me laughing reading their earlier posts.

Now to the topic, pls what is the difference btw arranged and love marriage?
There is love btw the couples in an 'arranged marriage' which was why they got (or planning to marry) in d first place. And in a 'love marriage' the couples met each other and arranged to get married after thinking and talking about it.

So I ask again, what is the difference btw arranged and love marriage?

When would this man stop giving Christianity a bad name?

Rochas Okorocha for president!

All these dudes saying they dont support divorce settlement are only being selfish and wicked.

So many men insist on their wives being full housewives; so many men dont allow their wives to study further after marriage; women are forced to put their careers and studies on hold due to pregnancy or marriage; so many women help their husbands achieve emotional stability which helps the men perform well in the office, but when they separate/divorce the guy keeps everything while the woman leaves with nothing plus the responsibility of taking care of the kids. Now ask yourselves, is that fair?

sheyma: @op why are u fighting against a man`s race or u tired of bein a man ni , ur idea is anti-male,abegi, park well o I agree child support but to split my wealth to a woman aba biko dat talk no too correspond.

I'm not tired of being a man, I'm only tired of seeing men treating women like objects and abandoning their responsibilities as husbands and fathers.
Is asking men to be a little bit more responsible too much to ask?

thoth: I have eaten the monkey brain in Hong kong in the late 90's. I think the poster tried to make it sound horrible. The monkey is usually held with some metal straps and only the head appears on the table and IT IS THE WAITER THAT BREAKS IT NOT THE GUEST. The brains turn foamy and the blood lines turn brown if you sprinkle vinegear on it. It is actually tasty especially when the brain is still warm. Drink it down with a bottle of Maltai white wine and you will experience heaven.

To be candid, your description of the experience makes me wanna have a taste.

alyarmouk: I think i prefer the foetus pepper soup. looks soft

I think u need deliverance.
