It seems alphabet Z is beginning not to have uniform pronounciation in english society any longer,some call it zee now while some call it zed,how do you call it?

During a break-up, there are all sorts of words said and lines dropped. When a once-good relationship is ending, it’s not uncommon for one of the two people involved to drop the “let’s be friends” line. Though it sounds good at the time, being friends after breaking up usually isn’t a wise idea.

 

It doesn’t allow you to move on

When you stay friends with your ex, there will always be a part of you that yearns and aches for him/her. By remaining friends, you will never fully allow yourself to move on and find someone new. This will hold you back from dating, and it will definitely hinder your ability to find love again.

 

You’ll have to create barriers

Just a few weeks ago, you two were telling each other everything under the sun. Your personal problems, your emotions, and your thoughts. However, being just friends may make you feel as though you have to limit what information you now share with each other. This makes for a tough friendship.

 

Its emotional torture

So, you two decide to hang-out and go to dinner together just as friends. You’re having a good time, laughing and smiling, and suddenly your feelings for him come rushing back. You want to hug him, kiss him, touch him, but you can’t, because you’re just friends. That is just pure emotional torture.

 

It creates false hope

Even if you don’t want to admit it, there is always going to be a sense of false hope, if you stay friends with your ex. That false hope is either going to impact you, him, or both of you. It’s likely that one of you secretly hopes that by staying friends, you can eventually start to date again and things will get back to how they were.

 

You’re taking a step back

When you’re dating someone, you’re bound to see and do things that you wouldn’t do if you were just friends. You’ve seen each other unclothed, done some crazy things in bed, and you’ve learned things that you otherwise wouldn’t know if you were strictly friends from the get-go. These past experiences can make being just friends extremely complicated.

 

It’s awkward for your families

You met his mom, she loved you. Your dad became really good friends with your ex. By becoming just friends, your families are also put into an odd position. How are they supposed to treat your ex, and vice versa? Do you still hang out with them, or have dinner together? It creates way too many questions.

 

You can’t really start fresh

Going from a couple to just friends doesn’t allow for a fresh start. Instead, there’s sure to be plenty of mixed signals. You’re used to calling each other pet names and all of your inside jokes are still alive and well. You two are bound to act like you did when you were a couple, even though you’re no longer dating. The situation becomes outright confusing.

 

It’s unhealthy

You’ve both been hurt by the relationship ending, and even as friends, you’re probably still going to be hurting. The longer you two are hanging out and seeing each other, the longer the hurt is going to be there. This is why it’s best to break things off completely, and instead invest yourself in people and activities that make you happy and allow you to heal and move on.

 

You’re the perfect hook-up target

Ex sex is easy, it’s convenient, it’s comfortable, and it’s something you know. However, it is not healthy or ideal. If you two start hooking up here and there, not only are you crossing the boundaries for being just friends, but you complicate the entire situation, and before you know it, you may be back into the circle of dating, breaking up, and becoming friends.

 

You may ruin the chances of future friendship

Nothing says that you two can’t be friends in the long run, once you two have moved on and gotten over each other as well as the hurt from breaking up. By becoming friends right after breaking up, you may ruin your chances of having a solid friendship in the future. It’s best to wait and let the dust settle before jumping into a friendship

After months of negotiations the European champions have reached a breakthrough in their efforts to bring back the Special One and recruit the prolific Atletico Madrid strike

Jose Mourinho has agreed a deal to re-join Chelsea as their manager this summer – and is poised to bring £50 million striker Radamel Falcao with him.

Goal.com understands that the Real Madrid boss is expected to be unveiled in the Stamford Bridge hot seat at the end of the season following a breakthrough in negotiations with the club over the last week.

The 41-year-old has been appointed to officiate Sunday's Premier League clash, seven weeks after taking charge of the FA Cup quarter-final between the two sides

Howard Webb has been appointed as referee for the Premier League tie between Manchester United and Chelsea at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The 41-year-old, who took charge of the 2010 World Cup final, is no stranger to controversial games between the two English giants with both clubs vocal critics of decisions from the official during past encounters.

     
PREMIER LEAGUE LATEST
15/1Manchester United and Chelsea are 15/1 with BetVictor to draw 2-2
Former Liverpool player Ryan Babel infamously tweeted a mocked-up photo of Webb wearing a United shirt following a 1-0 defeat in January 2011, with the message: "And they call him one of the best referees? That's a joke."

Babel subsequently became the first footballer to be disciplined by the Football Association as a result of a social media post.

Webb also clashed with former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho following a disallowed Salomon Kalou's goal against Blackburn in September 2007, resulting in the Portuguese demanding an apology from the referee.

The last time Webb took charge of a game involving both United and Chelsea was March's FA Cup quarter-final, which ended 2-2.

Manchester United have won 13 and lost just one out of the 15 Premier League games that Webb has officiated at Old Trafford.

Webb has also been called up to officiate Tuesday's Champions League semi-final second leg between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund at Santiago Bernabeu.

Uefa announces that the English official will take charge of the tie at the Santiago Bernabeu

Uefa has appointed Howard Webb as referee for Tuesday's Champions League semi-final second leg between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.

The home side will need to produce a remarkable comeback to overturn a 4-1 first-leg defeat, meaning Webb could be in for a busy evening at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The Englishman is highly regarded in his profession, having officiated the 2010 World Cup final between Spain and the Netherlands, as well as Inter's 2-0 Champions League triumph over Bayern Munich in the same year.

That first of those games saw Madrid players Xabi Alonso, Iker Casillas and Sergio Ramos all on the winning side, with la Roja running out 1-0 winners.

Webb was criticised after the game following an incident where Alonso was infamously 'dropkicked' by Nigel de Jong, a foul that was punished with just a yellow card from the referee.

The official is also no stranger to run-ins with Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho. Webb sent off two Chelsea players in the 2007 League Cup final and infuriated the then Blues boss when Salomon Kalou's goal was ruled offside against Blackburn in September 2007.

After the incident, Mourinho demanded a phone-call apology from Webb saying:

"I told him what I had to tell and what I told him was I am waiting for his phone call tomorrow to apologise."

The game in Madrid will be will Webb's fifth European tie this season. He has shown 15 yellows and one red in the Champions League so far this campaign.http://www.goal.com/en/news/article?contentId=3937875

Must a child carry his/her father's semblance,why our women will always insist that their children take after their fathers even when it is obvious that the reverse is the case. I was telling a mother sometime that her son carries her semblace but she swiftly rebuffed it by saying no 'his father'until when a neutral man had to intervene in my favour. This is not the first time this would be happening and it has left me to the big question that MUST A CHILD TAKE AFTER HIS/HER FATHER and why not mother and why would they always want to impose the former even when latter is the case, any undertone to this?

As 2012/13 epl season draws to a close,there is no doubt that the league is the most competitive in the world,select your top 4 so far,I believe that table ranking does not totally reflect performance this time. Also considering the value of investment on players in some of the so-called big teams and their performance,I'm sure some small teams deserve better comparative rating. Ichoose:swansea,southampton,manchester united and liverpool,go ahead and select your own

1Cor.11:5-6 clealy points out that every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. 6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. In spite of this express declaration in the Bible which is our standard as christians,some women still pray and prophesy with their heads uncovered and unshaven,is there any area in the Bible that justifies this or is it a practice in sharp disobedience? What is your take on this?

So happy making front page for the first time

I have seen children of different ages using pampers without knowing when actually they should stop,is it a thing of discretion for the parent to determine when their children should stop or what do the health experts recommend as the right time to stop children from using it.

Russian Billionaire Plans To Make Humans Immortal By 2045

A Russian billionaire has unveiled plans to make humans immortal by converting them into “Terminator-style” cyborgs – a creature that’s part human and part machine – within the next three decades.
Thirty two-year-old mogul, Dmitry Itskov has been pushing the project forward since 2011 when he founded the 2045 Initiative.
His ultimate goal is to transfer a person’s mind or consciousness from a living brain into a machine with that its personality and memories intact.
The so called “Cyborg” will have no physical form, and exist in a network similar to the Internet and be able to travel at the speed of light all over the Earth, or even into the space.
Itskov’s first highly ambitious goal, called Avatar A, involves a person controlling a robotic human replica through a brain-machine interface (BMI), a technology that already exists.
The deadline for this first stage is set for 2020. The Avatar B, due in 2025, would involve transplanting a human brain into an artificial body “at the end of one’s life.”


Next in line is the Avatar C, that rolls around in 2035, that would also involve a human-machine brain transplant, but with all personality intact.
Itskov hopes the Initiative will have learned enough about the human mind to free it completely from physical form finally, by 2045.
According to the report, from the Internet-like hive mind, individual personalities could manifest themselves as holograms when they need to interact with their environment.
“We believe that it is possible and necessary to eliminate ageing and even death, and to overcome the fundamental limits of the physical and mental capabilities currently set by the restrictions of the physical body,” the project website says.
Itskov is recruiting scientists and authoring an open letter to the UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon, asking him to support to push society’s transition to “neo-humanity.”

The reason why everything has failed to develop in africa is mainly the failure of africans to reasonably pass the right judgement in simple situation,the moment an average african fails he will want every other to fail along,however I sympathise with the referee for failing to live to expectation, he ruined the match by his innocuous red card to Nani PERIOD.
