Romance / Couple Spent $1.56 On Their Wedding by luckgood(m): 3:53pm On Sep 05, 2013 |
Artist Georgina Porteous, 36, and 39-year-old singer-songwriter Sid Innes budgeted just $1.56 for their big day. Yep, you read that right. The pair are dedicated to recycling and self-sufficiency, according to the U.K.'s Metro News, so they vowed to keep the day they exchanged vows super simple. So how did the couple throw a great fête for 70 guests for such a paltry price? Porteous and Innes said their "I do's" in a barn on their property behind their cottage. Porteous spent $1.56 on a vintage ivory wedding gown that she found on freecycle.org, a network of exchanges and gifting, while Innes wore an old tweed suit. The couple’s rings were handmade by Porteous using antlers she found in her garden. Her mother officiated the ceremony and a neighborhood reverend donated his services for free in order to make it all official. More on Yahoo Shine: Exclusive: Kate Bosworth Reveals Wedding Gown For the reception, the venue was decorated with locally grown flowers, hay bales, and lanterns that community farmers contributed. The newlyweds asked their guests to bring food and drinks for a potluck picnic and Porteous's aunt baked the cake. The wedding photographer who captured the festivities bartered his services in exchange for some film editing by Porteous. And the affair’s music came courtesy of the bride's father, who played jazz on the saxophone. “We thought we’d do [our wedding] differently and we started to become quite obsessed with it and ways to save money. It was exciting, fun and a challenge," Innes said in a YouTube video. One fee the couple couldn’t get out of paying? The $109.23 charge for a marriage license. Hopefully, it was totally worth it. While cost-cutting measures that Innes and Porteous took for their nuptials are certainly extreme, there are plenty of ways to have a budget-friendly wedding. Here are some tips and tricks for thrifty ways to tie the knot. The dress — If you don't have a a friend or family member who can lend you a dress (that she probably wore only once), there are a lot of great websites that sell once-worn wedding dresses. “When my clients come to me and are looking to keep costs down, I recommend that they resell their dresses,” Tracy Taylor Ward, owner and principal designer/planner of Tracy Taylor Ward Design, told Yahoo Shine. Sites like NearlyNewlywed.com and Tradesy make the process easy. And if you’re lucky, you might even make a profit if you sell yours. Sample sales, consignment shops, eBay and e-commerce site Etsy, which focuses on handmade and vintage items, are great options as well. The rings — Not everyone is as deft at ring-making as Porteous is, but Etsy has plenty of artisans with similar skills who sell affordable alternatives to typical gold and silver wedding bands. Titanium and gold-plated metals look like the real thing at just a fraction of the price. Flowers — In the United States, $1,997 was the average amount spent on flowers and decor per wedding in 2012. Ward suggested working with larger flowers. “Hydrangeas are a good-value flower because they’re always in season and you don't need as much to fill out an arrangement. You need more roses to fill out the same amount of space,” she said. Venue — Being able to throw a wedding at your own place or at the home of a friend or family member is the cheapest route, but for those outsourcing to other locations, there are tricks for trimming expenses. Most venues' rates vary by season, so if you can get a place during the off-season, its prices will be either lower than at peak times or negotiable because it's not going to have as much business during that period. Avoid holidays because prices tend to inflate. Additionally, tying the knot on a Friday or a Sunday is slightly less expensive than on a Saturday. Food — Pass on the raw bar and filet mignon and skip food stations, added Ward: instead opt for passed hors d'oeuvres and a sit-down dinner. The wedding cake — Wedding cakes cost, on average, $560, but you certainly don't have to spend that much. “Cakes are typically priced per slice, so try to find a bakery in your budget,” suggested Ward. An alternative cost-cutting measure is to ask the bakery for a smaller display cake and have extra sheet cakes in the kitchen for when it runs out. http://shine.yahoo.com/love-sex/couple-spent--1-56-on-their-wedding-%E2%80%94-could-you--181747605.html

Religion / End Time Tinz Or Things Craze by luckgood(m): 9:44pm On Sep 02, 2013 |
Hello guyz. I don't know maybe this is the right section to share this,but I just have to make my intention to be known. However,I have noticed recently on Nairaland threads that there some unscrupulous element who always want to say something irrespective of the fact that they've gat nothing to say except to say 'End Time Tinz'(ETT) and ultimately add no value or better still defeat the purpose of an ongoing discuSsions. Now,what is the craze about this ETT cos I know someone must have started it though,and I don't expect it to be seen as a laughing matter or any object of scorn. I believe end time things as it is written in Matt 24,even if the event is being played out today still call for sobber reflection,repentance and restitution. Pls,guys I don't mean to be sarcastic about this ETT but I feel its being over rated and it should stop... anyway,thatz my opinion. |

Romance / Jilted Boyfriends Upload Girlfriends' Nude Videos On Internet by luckgood(m): 4:45pm On Aug 19, 2013 |
Jilted boyfriends are uploading the nude videos of their former girlfriends on the internet to get back at their former lovers. This trend, called revenge pornography, has taken over major social sites on the internet in recent times, investigation has revealed. The leaked photographs and videos are uploaded on sites like Facebook, Twitter, blogs and many porn sites. Revenge pornography can be described as the deliberate sharing of erotic photographs and videos from previous relationships majorly to humiliate a former partner. Findings further reveal that these explicit pictures and videos are often posted by couples after a break-up. However, in some cases, some of the partners may have been commissioned by blogs and porn sites for the photographs and videos of sexual actions. Investigation by our correspondent showed that in Nigeria, just like many parts of the world, women are often the victims of revenge pornography. This is confirmed by the over 30 videos seen by our correspondent. Leaked sex videos and photographs of Nigerians can easily be found on some websites. Some amateur websites have reportedly been set up solely for videos and pictures considered revenge porn. Some websites too even ask for such videos from the public for a handsome reward. Analysts say revenge pornography is urgently becoming a genre of pornography on the internet attracting several viewers because the videos are leaked and debasing and the victims could easily be identified. Moreover, some of the victims do not even know they are being recorded. While in some cases, the women may not know that they are being recorded by their partners, in other cases, the women are seen showing so much trust in their men recording such sexual sessions believing the videos would be kept secret. One of the over 30 of such recorded videos currently on the internet, has the naked lady, reportedly a student of a Nigerian university, shyly asking his male partner, whose face is blanked out, why he was recording the session. The male partner, on the other hand, is heard telling the lady that they would watch the video after the love-making session before deleting it. In another video published on a website, a young Nigerian lady is seen on top of the man in a lovemaking session inside a corporate office with Wande Coal’s Taboo playing at the background. They are recorded with their faces clearly seen by a third partner whose female voice sang along with the music. Yet in another video currently on many internet sites, a mature woman is seen doing a Mouth Gig for the man who hides his face. The man soon tells her: “get up! It is time for the real show.” He, however, informs her that they would both watch the recording before deleting it. Then the woman sits astride the man who continues to record the “show”. There is the recent case of Miss UNIZIK, whose nude photographs are everywhere on the internet. According to the report, the student was said to have had issues with her boyfriend who posted the photographs. Currently, some non-governmental organisations are beginning to sensitise women against allowing their nude photographs to be taken by men at any point in time. A website has been set up by an American, Holly Jacobs, where victims can air their grievances. source |

Celebrities / Jackson Said Tour Would 'kill' Him: Son by luckgood(m): 12:32pm On Jun 27, 2013 |
Prince Michael Jackson has testified that his late father thought the <i>This Is It</i> tour would kill him. Prince Michael Jackson has testified that his late father thought the This Is It tour would kill him. Photo: AP Michael Jackson said that tour promoters AEG Live were going to "kill" him as he rehearsed for a marathon concert tour shortly before his death, his son Prince has testified. The 16-year-old also recounted the harrowing scenes on the day Jackson died in 2009, recalling how his younger sister Paris was "screaming" as doctor Conrad Murray was trying to revive her father. "He just wished he had more time for rehearsals," he told the wrongful death trial, in which the Jackson family accuses AEG Live of negligently hiring Murray to care for the star for his doomed This Is It shows. The teenager said Jackson was upset on the phone "a lot of time," most of the time with AEG Live chief Randy Phillips. Advertisement "He would cry sometimes. He said: 'They're gonna kill me, they're gonna kill me'." Asked who he was talking about, he said: "People in AEG, Randy Phillips." Jackson, the most high-profile witness to testify since the civil trial started in late April, recalled June 25, 2009, the day his father died of an overdose of anaesthetic propofol, given by Murray to help with chronic insomnia. "I was downstairs in the sitting room. I heard screaming upstairs. I saw Dr Conrad, (personal chef) Kai (Chase) looked nervous and said 'Dr Murray wants you upstairs'. "I ran upstairs and I saw Dr Murray doing CPR on my dad. Dr Murray was screaming while doing CPR. Then my sister came upstairs. She was screaming all the time saying she wants her dad," he added. Appearing to fight back tears, he recalled how the children followed the ambulance which took Jackson to hospital, in a separate car. "My dad always told us that angels were looking after him. At the hospital, Dr Murray said 'Sorry kids, dad is dead'. We just cried," he told the jury.

Watermelon is everyone’s favorite summer fruit, or is it? Did you know that the Watermelon isn’t even a fruit? Yeah, neither did I. Here are ten other interesting facts about Watermelon guaranteed to impress fellow picnic guests. The Facts: 1 Not only does it quench your thirst, it can also quench inflammation that contributes to conditions like asthma, atherosclerosis, diabetes, colon cancer, and arthritis. 2 Over 1,200 varieties of watermelon are grown worldwide. 3 Watermelon is an ideal health food because it doesn’t contain any fat or cholesterol, is high in fiber and vitamins A & C and is a good source of potassium. 4 Pink watermelon is also a source of the potent carotenoid antioxidant, lycopene. These powerful antioxidants travel through the body neutralizing free radicals. 5 Watermelon is a vegetable!
