blessed4ever: You are listening or watching satanic, demonic inspired music and video that will take you to hell if you fail to repent. Somebody loves you and wants to take you to Heaven...He's Jesus. Stop your sins today.
I Corinthians 6:9-10 says,'Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? BE NOT DECEIVED: neither Fornicators, nor Idolaters, nor Adulterers, nor Effeminates, nor Abusers of themselves with mankind, nor Thieves, nor Covetous.., shall inherit the Kingdom of God.


A seducer is not a christian.....Do not be deceived, God commands inward and outward holiness. You cannot dress to cause men to lust after you and still remain guiltless...God cares how you dress....that's the reason He changed the apron Adam and Eve put on to animal skin for proper covering, Genesis 3:21

carmelion: Experience they say is the best teacher.I want to share with you dolls one the not so sweet experience I had while I was dating a particular guy.My dear Sisters,beware of guys who will tell you that they love but they already have a fiancee who is known by the family members.they brainwash you and tell that it is you they love(this happens after you hace opened your legs for them,why not before?)

They spoil you with money,love and so on you fall helplessly in love.And at the end of the day,they walk down the aisle with the they supposedly didn't love,while leaving you heartbroken .

Hey dolls,it happened to me and believe me I don't want anyone of you to feel what I felt.I was down,i felt suicidal.I believe that a lady out there is ignorantly believing another play boy out there.

Please my dear sister,wake up today and run.If its you he truly loves,he wouldn't have a fiancee who is not you,Well am over it now but I don't want any other person to innocently fall for such people.You deserve the best!

CFCfan: A Nollywood movie titled `Dr Bello' will be making history as the first Nigerian movie to debut in the U.S. theatres on Feb. 22, its producer, Mr Tony Abulu, has said.

Abulu on Monday in Abuja said that the movie would be released in the U.S. theatres from Feb. 22 to Feb. 27.

He said the movie, worth N150 million, would explore the foreign exchange potentials that abound in the U.S. film industry.

The development, according to Abulu, will also create a platform for other Nigerian movies to sell in the U.S. market.

“This is the second largest theatre chain in America with over 5000 screens and this portends great opportunity for Nigeria, because apart from “Dr Bello” other movies can come through this same agreement.

“The only catch is that they have to be very well produced and they have to be targeted to an American audience, not all the Nigerian movies can do it; there will be a select group of Nigerian movies that can come through that channel.

“But I think, as time goes on, we can begin to see the millions of dollars of foreign exchange revenue that we have been hoping for from a place like the U.S.''

Abulu praised the performance of the Nigerian film industry in projecting the image of the country overseas, adding that the quality of movies currently produced in the country were encouraging.

“The kind of movies we are making now are the quality of movies that I believe can have the capabilities to disclaim in the US theatres, but one of the prerequisite is that Americans would normally like to see one or two of their own actors in the movies.

“So we have very good film makers in Nigeria and I can account for at least about 25 of them that I think have the capacity and capability to make such films. ''

The producer said that the production of the film was supported by Federal Government's $200 million intervention fund, adding that an endowment fund was still needed to boost activities of the entertainment industry.

According to him, the AMC agreed to expand the film to a wider release if there was a strong performance during the critical make-or-break first week of its release.

Abulu, who is also the writer and director of “Dr Bello'', said that the release of the move in U.S. would strengthen the Nigerian film industry.

He said that it would provide better opportunities for professionals in the industry as well as enable films get more elaborate in terms of their scope.

“Once the revenue begins to increase of the films, everybody benefits.

“The industry gets stronger because there is more funding in the industry, producers now can spend more money in making movies.

“Instead of making movies at an average of N5 million, now you are making movies at an average of N40 million.

“That means locations are paid for, actors and the entire crew are paid more for their work and they can bring in a lot more actors in the movies and the movies can get more elaborate in terms of their scope.

“So by extension, a lot of people will benefit just by distributing the Nollywood movies in the U.S. market.''

“The cure for cancer has been found in the sky mountains of Africa and an American oncologist will risk everything to find it.''

The movie, 'Dr Bello', will be starring Isaiah Washington, Vivica Fox, Jimmy Jean-Luis and Nigerian superstars Genevieve Nnaji and Stephanie Okereke.

The film will open at AMC theatres in New York, New Jersey Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington DC, Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, Dallas, Miami and Jacksonville.

kheart: An Illinois man got a strange Valentine’s gift’ from his girlfriend when he tried to kiss her after an outing that resulted in an argument – she bit a large part of his tongue off. Elaine Cook of Skokie and her 47-year-old boyfriend of 10 months got into an argument after returning from a Valentine Day outing. According to Assistant State Attorney Eve Reilly, Cook asked the unidentified man to leave and he put on his shoes and headed for the door.

But in a last attempt to make peace with her, the man turned around to make amends. ‘He told her they should stop fighting and went to kiss her and she bit off a large portion of his tongue. Reilly said The man quickly rushed to the sink and Cook followed, spitting out the tongue into the counter. The man quickly put the severed tissue into an ice bag and called 911.

Doctors at Evanston Hospital were unable to stitch back the tongue due to ‘an inadequate blood supply,’ though the man can still speak. Prosecutors say that most of the right part of his tongue has been cut off.

The woman has been arrested and charged with aggravated battery. Her bail has been set at $100,000.

Nightshift: Okey Isima was one of Coal City's finest footballers during the 70s/80s. First, he played for his school National Grammar School Nike Enugu, and later Enugu Rangers International, before joining Eagles and winning African Cup Of Nations for Nigeria in 1980. A true 'flying antelope', may his Soul Rest In Peace .

iamdsam: Last sunday, Prophet TB Joshua of the SCOAN prophesied that the political parties merger in Nigeria will bring a big challenge to the PDP which has been the dominant party for many years now. He further said that the merger of these political parties will cause crisis and division. He ended by saying that we should all pray for the peace of Nigeria and other nations of the world. Is Nigeria disintegrating in 2015? Or what does the prophet really mean? What's your thought on this one? @Nairalanders

Joliecoco: Ladies and Guys , Can you Date or marry someone that you are not attracted to?
As for me no ,Attraction is an important aspect in a relationship. I can't date someone that I am not attracted to . I have to be attracted to you before I date you .

Joliecoco: How do you reject a guy nicely who likes you ,but you see him only as a friend ? I don't want to hurt his feelings.He asked me out many times ,and i declined his request ,but he does not seem to get the memo. He is nice,intelligent and is very successful in his professional life,but I am not attracted to him. He will be great guy for another woman not me. My friends think i should give this guy at least one chance by going out for dinner with him ,but i refuse to do so.

elampiro: A spectacular performance from Luis Nani. Nani is capable of some many things, if only he could realize. He can be ahead of Anthonia Valencia if he is consistent. He can use both legs, he heads, he dribbles with both feet, he has speed, he can twist a defenders waist. He can play from the right, left and middle. He has straight shots from both feet. He had two shots from outside the box yesterday, one hit the upright and the other the keeper managed to pushed away. Then he scores too, just as he did yesterday. He just need to continue his good crosses as we saw yesterday. Before Nani came in, our game didn't make sense. Valencia was much predictable so he was marked off by Reading. Nani came and changed the match from 50-50 in favour of United. He boss and dictated the play. No wonder Ferguson said he gave a man of the match performance.

Now he has brought an option to the team. Opponents have to worry if it will be Valencia or Nani SAF will throw at them. Valencia is a master of what he does; pace and accurate crosses from the outside right, he also can cut into the box from the right. But he mostly have difficulties with a defence that play deeps or seat back. But because Nani doesn't always need to run to dribble, he easily break a pack full defence or teams that seat back and play deep. By time he tries four or five tricks, the opening will be made.

Johndoe100: Clap for yourself. I have noticed you.

1800bc: The purpose of the list is not to insult and offend Black women, but instead, it is supposed to be a fun way for any woman to take an inventory of herself with a desire to be honest about what she could do to become a better version of herself. To be honest, there were a couple of points on the list that had me giggling because I knew I was “guilty”.

Ladies, feel free to leave a comment and let me know where your “guilt” lies and how you plan to grow and develop so that you are not as “guilty”, a year from now. Men, feel free to add your thoughts, but please, go easy on us

Being “Unavailable”-Women who have a long list of things to do and somehow omit their man’s need for intimacy will eventually find themselves alone or feeling lonely.

Being “ignorant” and bringing drama to every situation-You know the type; every time she is involved in a situation, she brews up some conflict or drama. Saying things like “I’ll fight a n!&r”. This type of woman will show up at her man’s job and stir up something and could even get him fired.

Not being able to say “I’m sorry”. Nothing diffuses a potential fight like just humbling yourself and taking responsibility and accountability for your part in a disagreement.
Having unrealistic and unreasonable expectations-like cheating and expecting your man to “forgive” and forget.

Over-emphasizing their independence and saying things like “I’m a strong black woman,” usually as a disguise for irresponsible and selfish behavior.

Imposing double standards like expecting to be treated like a lady and acting like a “chicken-head”. Saying things like “what’s mine is mine and what’s his is mine”. Another example is expecting her man to be a provider in the old fashioned sense but won’t be a nurturer and loving wife in the old fashioned sense, or working at McDonald’s and demanding a lawyer, doctor or some high paid profession as a potential partner.

Having priorities in the wrong place and abandoning what is important to her man. Willing to go above and beyond for her “boss” at work but not for her man at home.

Trying to control EVERYTHING. Examples are: Trying to control her man’s beliefs and force her man to go to church, or telling her man what to do, or trying to be your man’s Mom and tell him what to wear etc

Being too flirtatious. It’s okay to be friendly but if your man has to wonder what would happen if he wasn’t in the room, then you may be taking it too far.

Not accepting her man for who he is and trying to change him.

Betraying her man’s confidence and privacy by talking about their relationship problems with another man (or women who love to bring men down).

Expecting your man to read your mind. Just communicate what you want and trust your man to deliver.

Being so insecure of yourself that you are constantly accusing your man of cheating or lying.

Being too clingy. Give your man his space. You can have your own interests and passions without making them more important than him.

Not being willing to try new things; being small and narrow minded.

Having loose morals. This kind of woman has no boundaries and does not seem to have a level of self respect befitting a woman that a good man would want to commit to.

Being right ALL the time and knowing EVERYTHING.

Letting her friends run her relationship, especially the ones who have failed in their own relationships or can’t seem to keep a man.

Being unsupportive and not able to affirm and encourage her man.

Comparing herself with other women and comparing her man to other men and coveting other people’s lives.

Trying to trick a man into making you pregnant. When he says he is not ready, he’s not ready. You can’t trick him and hope that he will change his mind along the way. Examples of this behavior are saying you’re on birth control when you know you aren’t or pricking condoms.

Having a negative attitude. This woman is discontent about everything and everyone. She complains about everything and there is just no pleasing her.

Women who take care of themselves until they get into a relationship and then start neglecting themselves and stop bothering with civility. These women look a mess and snap at their man anytime he speaks to them.

Competing with your man at everything. While it’s okay to be competitive, accomplished and even ambitious, your man should feel like you’re on his side not against him.

Pressuring a man to commit to you. If he wants to marry you he will and if you pressure him, it is more likely to push him away than it is to get him to commit.

MizEmerald: My boyfriend just told me we need a break and am just confused about his request,is it finally over or we will get back after d holiday

Sweetlemon: The "bed guy" I have been talking about here has invited me to spend a weekend at his family house (with his folks)
Lord!
I'm so excited!
And I'm so scared! One minute I'm on top of the world, the next my tommy churns.
What if they are snobs? What if I do or say the wrong things?
What kind of clothes should I even take along with me?
Oh well, at the end I guess I'll just have to settle for being confident in myself.
