FamilyMarried Couples Who Are Never Intimate But Insist They're Happy by obynocj(op): 7:34am On May 31, 2013
When married couples live like brother and sister. No sex for years and they insist they are happy. Are they deluded - or just honest? Read and tell us what you think...

Most evenings, with their little girl safely tucked up in bed, Charlotte and Chris Everiss (pictured right) enjoy a kiss and a cuddle on the sofa in front of the television.

Happily married for a decade, the couple cannot bear to even imagine their lives without one another. Yet, astonishingly, they haven’t made love for more than two years.

Both insist that their marriage, which followed a two-year courtship after meeting on a dating website, is stronger than most. It’s just that sex, they say, is not important to their happiness.



‘We still turn each other on but we don’t want to take it any further,’ says Charlotte. ‘We don’t have the time or the energy.

‘I find it hard switching off knowing that our four-year-old, Addison, is in the next bedroom. I think if Chris really missed sex he would tell me, or I’d catch him watching porn on the internet as a substitute.

‘But he doesn’t seem to want to go back to having sex, either.
‘We sound like Darby and Joan, I know - even though I’m only 34 and Chris is 40 - but that, to us, is contentment.'

https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/05/29/article-2332927-19F38C46000005DC-437_634x946.jpg
Charlotte and Chris, it seems, aren’t the only ones whose sex life has dwindled to nothing. A recent survey estimated that 15 to 20 per cent of couples have sexless relationships - defined by experts as making love fewer than ten times a year - while around 5 per cent go without altogether.

Actress Helen Mirren spoke for many of these couples earlier this year when she said: ‘I think the power of partnership in marriage is under-recognised in our society. That’s what makes marriages work, not sex.’


In a sex-obsessed society, where everyone - young, old, male and female - seems to be boasting of how many times a week they ‘do it’, it may come as a relief to many that couples like Charlotte and Chris are happy to admit that sex plays no part in their marriages at all.

Most couples who find themselves at a point where sexual intimacy has died tend to confide their predicament to no one at all. But today three brave couples reveal to Femail how they have learned to live contented lives without sex.

You don’t need a degree in psychology to work out why Charlotte, a social media consultant from Great Wyrley, Staffordshire - who in the early years of her marriage made love to her husband three times a week - may have problems surrounding sex.

Three years ago, when their daughter was 18 months old, Charlotte almost died after an ectopic pregnancy resulted in her having a partial hysterectomy during a six-hour operation. Since then, she and Chris have made love only once, around ten months after her loss, an encounter from which she derived no pleasure.

Chris is understanding about her aversion to sex. ‘It can be hard knowing that our cuddles will never lead to anything more intimate,’ he says. ‘Charlotte is a gorgeous woman and I’m still very attracted to her, but she nearly died and I count my blessings every day that she’s even still here.’

‘I have an hour-long commute at either end of my working day so, to be honest, most of the time I’m too tired for sex anyway.’

Chris, a digital marketing manager, says he doesn’t discuss with friends the absence of sex from his marriage, but believes it is more common than people admit.
‘I don’t know that we’re all that different from other couples, we’re just more open about it,’ he says.

In all other respects, the Everisses have an enviable lifestyle. They live in a beautiful, four-bedroom detached home, have a Mini Cooper convertible and a VW Golf parked on the driveway, and enjoy several foreign holidays a year.

Tracey Dowler, 42, (pictured above with husband) spent several months worrying that husband Julian, 55, didn’t want to make love to her because he was attracted to other women. But she has now accepted that the stress of his demanding job as director of a motor mechanical and haulage company is the reason they no longer have sex.

And, while she admits there have been times when she has felt like walking out of their immaculate, three-bedroom semi-detached home in Rugby, Warwickshire, over the lack of intimacy, Tracey values other aspects of their marriage too highly.

‘We got married in 2007 after only knowing each other for six months, so it was pretty whirlwind,’ says Tracey, a wedding fair organiser. ‘When we were dating, we’d have sex up to three times a night, which was wonderful, but after the wedding we only made love once or twice a week. We started going months between encounters and now we haven’t made love for well over a year.’

Tracey still feels very attracted to her husband, and he says the same of her. The couple are loving in other ways, holding hands when they go out together, kissing one another goodnight before going to sleep and saying “I love you” at the end of telephone conversations.

But Julian has 40 employees under him and says his job has become far more demanding in the years since their wedding. He gets up at 4am to start work at 5am, puts in a 12-hour day and, as he is on 24-hour call, his phone often rings several times during the night with drivers needing advice.
Weekends are no more relaxing as Julian also runs a photography business, which he is hoping will take off enough for him to concentrate on it full time.

They are both keen to have a family together. They’ve had IVF and plan to have another round of it in August.

‘We talk about rekindling our love life but never seem to get around to it,’ says Julian. ‘We had a weekend away at a country hotel a couple of weeks ago and I was so exhausted I spent most of the time asleep.’

Julian regards Tracey as his best friend and soulmate - a fact common, it seems, to many couples enduring sexless marriages - and believes that once he retires they will be able to rekindle some semblance of romance.


Once a couple gets out of the habit of having sex, however, this can be easier said than done.
‘Couples who don’t make love start living like brother and sister or friends and get out of the habit of seeing one another in a sexual way,’ says Relate counsellor Paula Hall.

‘If both partners want to reintroduce sex, we encourage them to do so slowly, learning how to be sensual with each other and gradually building up to intercourse

CelebritiesRihanna Is Now The Highest-paid Singer In The World by obynocj(op): 4:23pm On May 30, 2013
Rihanna
It’s been a rough year for the singer, but at least she has her millions of dollars to ease the pain. 25-year-old Rihanna has taken the No. 1 spot onPeople With Money’s top 10 highest-paid singers for 2013 with an estimated $82 million in combined earnings.....

Rihanna tops annual list of highest-paid singers
In 2010 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top.People With Money reports on Wednesday (May 29) that Rihanna is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between April 2012 and April 2013, a nearly $50 million lead over her closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The Barbadian singer has an estimated net worth of $245 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Rihanna Burger” chain) in Bridgetown, a Football Team (the “Saint Michael Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonder Rihanna – Barbados), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Rihanna) and a fashion line called “Rihanna Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Rihanna fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.

RomanceHELP! I'm In Love With Two Men At Once.. My Boyfriend And My Ex by obynocj(op): 10:14pm On May 29, 2013
I’m in love with two men at once. Both of them are waiting for me to make a choice. Choosing one means I will have to lose the other. I can’t decide what to do....
I’m 26 and my boyfriend’s 27. We’ve been together on and off for the best part of a year. He is sensitive, romantic, exciting and passionate but I’ve twice broken with him because of my feelings for my ex.
I was with my ex for almost three years. I was completely in love with him but we began arguing more and communicating less. It got to the point we were fighting all the time. I felt detached from him and started developing feelings for the guy who is now my boyfriend.
We met at the gym and started going for runs together. We got on so well that I realised how serious this was and decided to keep my distance. What I thought was just a harmless crush was taking me away from my relationship - I was cheating emotionally.

Crime19 Year Old Boy Arrested For Raping His Mother by obynocj(op): 12:24pm On May 29, 2013
A teen raped his mother for revenge, according to police....

Police said a Marshall County, Alabama teen raped his mother for revenge after an altercation with his brother.

Police said 19-year-old Gary Helms, Jr., raped his 45-year-old mother at the trailer park in Willow Terrace Doyle Drive in Albertville. It is a twisted crime that police said Helms admits.

"From what I understand the rape stemmed from an argument between him and his brother. And apparently they were arguing over a girlfriend. And the rape was some sort of revenge against his brother," Sgt. Jamie Smith of the Albertville Police Department said. It was an unusual retaliation on an innocent victim.

Authorities said Helms' mother was apparently passed out drunk on the couch when the rape started. "During the attack she has come to recognize the assailant was her son," Smith said. That's when, according to the police report, the mother "tried to escape, but she was held down until the act was completed." "It's totally sick is what it is," Smith said.

Helms was arrested and charged with the 1st degree rape of his own mother. Smith says it's hard to wrap the mind around this. "Shocked, very shocked would be a better way to describe it. That someone would do something of this nature. It's a shock to the conscience of the general public," Smith said.

Helms is being held in the Marshall County Jail on bail of $100,000.

PoliticsWoman (29) Tests HIV Positive, Commits Suicide At Hospital by obynocj(op): 7:00am On May 28, 2013
AN HIV positive woman from Kezi in Matabeleland South province committed suicide at a local hospital where she was admitted, police have confirmed...


Matabeleland South police spokesman, Assistant Inspector Christopher Ngwenya, said 29 year-old Jennifer Ncube from Sun Yet Sen area had been admitted at Tshelanyemba Hospital after her condition deteriorated.

"We received a report about a woman Jennifer Ncube who went for HIV testing at Tshelanyemba Hospital and came out positive. She was instructed to report on a daily basis for counselling while taking drugs," said Assistant Inspector Christopher Ngwenya.

He said hospital authorities however admitted Ncube on May 14 after noticing that her condition had deteriorated. On May 18, a night duty nurse is said to have attended to her around 4am but she was then found to be missing during a patients' roll call about an hour later.

Her body was found hanging from a tree behind hospital the following day by a 15- year-old herdboy, Ngwenya said. Police said people should seek counselling from community leaders instead of taking their own lives when facing challenging life situations.

RomanceHOT GIST: See The Reasons Why Lovers Must Have Sex Before Marriage by obynocj(op): 6:07pm On May 27, 2013
It does tend to emotionally bond you to someone, and that can mean getting emotionally attached to the wrong person. Once sex enters the equation, a relationship is never the same. But one woman recently wrote about her “purity pledge” that went wrong…

It led to an incredibly short starter marriage. Once she realized that she and her new husband had absolutely zero sexual chemistry, she counted down the days until she could get a divorce, which happened six months into their marriage. Here are five reasons to get rid of that purity pledge and do the dirty before you say “I do.”
Sexual chemistry.
Jessica Ciencin Henriquez, who kept her “purity” until her wedding night, writes in Salon:
“Our bodies wanted different things from one another, so what we ended up with was a horizontal battle. I would hear married girlfriends talk about the joys of make-up sex and continue to sip my coffee in silence. We would fight, and then have bad sex and then fight some more. Every flaw in our marriage and in him seemed much more miserable when combined with the possibility of faking orgasms until death did we part. There was no relief. Six months into our marriage, the idea of separating seemed more appealing than feigning headaches for the rest of my life.”
As Jessica found out, sexual chemistry is something that can really only be ascertained by, well, having sex. Jessica would make out for hours with her husband before their marriage, so she thought that would translate into awesome horizontal mambo. But it didn’t.
Sexual identity.
I know too many couples where one partner was able to cover up his or her true sexual persuasion because he or she simply didn’t have sex with anyone. Not having sex with the opposite sex can also mean you ignore those longings you might have for the same sex, and therefore don’t acknowledge them.
Sex itself.
Not everyone is great in bed, and most people don’t start out very good at all. A lot of good sex is about listening to your partner and being able to respond accordingly. But how do you know if someone is a good listener or responder unless you try it first?
Size.
Don’t you want to know if your husband is packing a hunting rifle or a tiny little plastic kid’s pistol? After all, he knows how big your boobs are. I’m not saying size would be a dealbreaker, but don’t you have the right to know what’s down there?
Sexual issues.
Sexual problems like premature ejaculation, inability to get an erection, or even an allergy to your partner’s semen are all possibilities, wouldn’t you rather deal with those issues before you’re married? This way you know if your future is even going to address them.
Let’s face it, sex plays a big role in marriage. Just like you should discuss children, religion, and where you both want to live before tying the knot, sex is too big a part of a relationship to leave to chance.
So with these revelations, do you agree it’s a good idea to have sex before marriage?

CelebritiesWe Have Never Fallen In Love’ – Sèxy Nollywood Actresses by obynocj(op): 5:15pm On May 27, 2013
Chidinma and Chidiebere Aneke are the acting version of the music twins, P-Square. They are beautiful, sexy and in high demand in Nollywood....
In this interview with OSEYIZA OOGBODO, the duo told him that though they are flying high, it wasn’t always a bed of roses. Excerpts:
Lots of your colleagues are always in one scandal or the other but you are not. How do you avoid scandals?
Nobody is perfect and nobody is above mistake. Sometimes it may not be the fault of those you see today enmeshed in one scandal or the other. We don’t need to condemn them. We are not above scandals too. We only pray to God to see us through all our decisions.
P-Square have made themselves differentiable. How can we differentiate you two?
You don’t need to. Anytime I wake up and I see my beautiful sister, and I realise that is exactly how I look, I thank God for making me as beautiful. We do not want people to even know the difference. Maybe if you are close enough to us, you will know the difference.
How are you coping with fame?
We were popular even as children. You know that twins are easy to spot, and as twins we have enjoyed a little bit of attention from a very young age. Today the thing is hyper. You will see some people who just jump on you from nowhere, and we will be dumbfounded. Some will come close to us and even kiss us. But we still try to be ourselves. We know where we are coming from. We once roasted plantain by the road side so we remain down to earth.
How did you know you could act?
When we were small, we used to act in church dramas. Then later, we started getting little roles.
How difficult or easy was it for you to attain stardom?
It definitely wasn’t easy. If you are watching Ini Edo and Genevieve and you think it is easy to be where they are, then you must be joking. But if you are ready to work hard then the sky will be your limit. The industry is so wide and it can accommodate anybody who has the necessary attributes. Everyone have their own special talent, and everyone their own time. When your time comes, it would be difficult for anyone to bring you down. So in essence, we don’t see those in the industry as challenges or rivals. Some may be bigger than us today and tomorrow, we could be bigger than them. All we have achieved is by the grace of God. Whatever we want to do, we leave to God. Once God is involved, He finds a way for us. God will not give us a vision without backing it. Also we knew we had the talent for it and we developed that talent.
Is there any major sacrifice you made to become stars?
That will be when we left school for acting. Our mum was not happy with it. She said that we can do whatever we wanted as long as we finished school, so we had to retrace our steps and we are better off for it today. But back then, we felt we had to concentrate fully on Nollywood to become successful.
You produce movies, and producers do complain about piracy. Is it affecting you too?
Yes, piracy is always the number one problem. We need the government to help us fight piracy. It is these 10-in-one CDs that are the problem. You will see a DVD for N150, and it has 10 movies in it. How can we sell the original which is N250? We really need the government to help us fight piracy.
Identical twins are known to play tricks on people who can’t identify them. Do you do so too?
We did that a lot when we were younger. And even when one of us was reported for doing something wrong, we both took the blame and we both got punished.
Who are your boyfriends?
We are fine, God is our love life. Nobody has ever told me I love you and I said I love you too. We don’t have boyfriends. They may be distractions sometimes. We are okay for now; we are concentrating on our work.
But you are not getting younger. Don’t you want to get married?
We are willing to get married but we are not ready to rush into marriage. If we rush in, we will rush out. We will wait for our own time. We were brought up to take the marriage institution very seriously. Our parents were together till our father passed on and my mother never remarried. It was till death do us part. So when we are getting married, you surely will know.
Will you say your being identical twins is contributing to your success?
All is by the grace of God. I agree that twins are a blessing from God so God’s favour is always on us. I am sure that even P-Square will tell you that they also had God’s guidance to get them to where they are now.

Nairaland GeneralIs Dangote An Igbo Man? by obynocj(op): 11:23am On May 25, 2013
On a lighter mood, Dangote means in Igbo: "Dan, please buy". It could have also been a corruption of the Igbo expression "Di anyi, gote," which in English means: "Dear, please buy".
It may not be asking for too much if Dangote is urged to conduct a DNA test and make the result public. This writer will not be surprised at all if the DNA result shows that somewhere in the past, one of his forebears may have been Igbo. Be that as it may, Dangote will do well by remembering to site one of his factories in Igboland. That way, Ndi Igbo can indeed "gote" from his vast business empire.

Christianity EtcLISTEN: 10 Facts About T.B. Joshua by obynocj(op): 7:29pm On May 23, 2013
T. B. Joshua is a Nigerian pastor and televangelist. He is also a self-styled prophet. This weekend in Ghana four people were killed and a further 30 were injured in a stampede at one of his services....


The stampede occurred when the excited crowd rushed forward for the church’s signature 'holy water' which is believed to cure ailments as well as offer relief from all manner of ills; from business problems to interpersonal issues.
We take a closer look at Temitope Balogun Joshua the charismatic leader of The Synagogue, Church of All Nations (SCOAN).


He has amassed a massive fortune
According to a BBC report in September 2012 Joshua is thought to be worth in the region of $10 - 15 million. The same number was quoted by Forbes when they compiled a list of the wealthiest pastors in Nigeria. The source of this income is unconfirmed, but with several products for sale through SCOAN it is fair to say that the pastor is doing well.

He has several high profile fans
Several world leaders have visited the prophet. In their 50 most influential Africans feature, the BBC reported 'Ghana's President John Atta Mills, Zimbabwe's prime minister Morgan Tsvangirai and Nigeria's first lady Patience Jonathan are just a few of the political heavyweights who have patronised his church'. Nelson Mandela’s ex-wife and high-profile struggle veteran Winnie Madikizela-Mandela is also known to have visited the pastor.


He claims to be a prophet
Joshua claims to be able to predict the future. This 'gift' extends from minor predictions such as football results, to his (now debunked) prediction that Boko Haram would be history by 2012. The most famous of Joshua’s predictions came in February 2012 when he predicted that an elderly African leader would soon pass away. Later he narrowed it down, by saying the leader was not in West Africa. In April Malawi President Bingu wa Mutharika suddenly passed away, and the internet exploded with followers of the Nigerian prophet claiming it was evidence of his status as a prophet. Naysayers claimed it was a coincidence or clever use of the Forer effect (a technique used by con artist that gets people to fill in the missing details of a vague statement without realising it); while others went even further and hinted that there may have been a political conspiracy at play.


His Anointing Water
The Anointing Water, now in its third manifestation, is believed by the SCOAN faithful to cure all manner of ills - from the physical to the spiritual. The latest version of the water claims to be 'The Blood of Christ' on the bottle. It is this water which caused the stampede in Accra which resulted in the deaths of four people. A post on the official TB Joshua Ministries Facebook page on 16 May 2013 read: “Right now we are seeing a testimony on Emmanuel TV of Mr. Echu, a man who came to The SCOAN with the incurable disease of HIV/AIDS. After receiving prayer at The SCOAN he received his healing and went back to the same hospital where he had gotten his positive medical report and after testing his blood, it came out negative to HIV/AIDS.” Much of the church’s literature and activity online is made up of testimonials about the effectiveness of the water in curing diseases and ailments.


His Ministry is international
He has millions of followers worldwide, with branches in Nigeria, London, South Africa, Greece and Ghana. The popularity of the church in these far-flung locations is most likely a result of the spread of the large Nigerian and Ghanaian diaspora worldwide. The next international branch will likely be in the United States, although if that is the case Joshua should be prepared to face tough competition from home-grown televangelists.


He has vociferous critics
Joshua has gained the ire of a vocal minority. Some of his critics are other charismatic pastors who are in direct competition with him. Yet others have no competitive motivation for their critique, but find they are compelled to point out the inconsistencies in his prophecies and conduct. One such critic is the author of the blog TB Joshua watch, who claims, 'We’re not writing to mock a self-proclaimed prophet whose “prophecies” really don’t stand up to scrutiny. No, we’re writing because we’re angry. We’re angry that someone representing Christianity is using a tragedy for self-promotion. We’re angry that what he claims was a prophecy was useless for anything except giving him bragging rights.' The site's 'about' section claims the motivation for the blog is, 'to critically examine the ministry of Nigerian mega-pastor TB Joshua and attempt to separate truth from lies. “ The site then goes on to mention testimony from former church members who make claims of cult-like behaviour and also reference abuses committed by the church.


He has a television station
What’s a televangelist without his own TV station? The television station Emmanuel TV has its headquarters in Lagos and the channel broadcasts 24/7. Established in 2006, the channel now broadcasts church services as well as programming about the church’s charitable activities and youth and children's programming.


He claims he spent 15 months in utero
According to the biography of the pastor, his mother carried him for more than a year before she gave birth. His extended biography on the SCOAN website reads, 'Significantly, almost a hundred years prior to his birth, it had been prophesied that a young man would emerge from the poor Oosin quarters and that God would use him mightily.' The website also claims that three days after his birth, during a ceremony, he narrowly missed death when a stone flew through the roof of the building he was in and landed near the vulnerable baby.


Actors and Artists in Nigeria and Ghana are fans
Nollywood actress Tontoh Dikeh said she was able to break a 14-year smoking habit as a result of SCOAN. Another Nollywood actress Camilla Mberekpe is also a vocal fan, saying she was ‘delivered’ thanks to the church. Denise Williams, a popular Ghanaian musician, credits the church with freeing her from a demonic possession that caused her suicidal thoughts and resulted in a drug addiction.


He is a philanthropist
According to a Forbes report on Nigeria’s richest pastors, he has given away roughly $20 million in the past three years. His favoured causes include healthcare, education and the rehabilitation of former Niger Delta militants. According to New African Magazine Joshua received the 'National Honour of OFR from the Nigerian government' for his charitable work.

Beautiful business woman wearing glasses
1. An education – This is the best investment you could ever make in your life. Continue learning because as long as you keep learning, you keep growing...


2. A vocation: In addition to your education, become a professional in your career or area of specialisation. Get trained and get the necessary qualifications.
3. A savings account in your own name (and enough money in it) – One of the wisest investments you can make is starting a savings account early. Apportion at least 10% of your earnings to this account and watch it grow.
4. A sense of humor, style and purpose – Humor is very attractive and will get you through some tough patches. A sense of style lets you stand out from your peers and having purpose ensures you pursue your goals with focus.
5. The wisdom to fall in love with your eyes open – Know what you want out of your love relationships and avoid being carried away with the ‘feeling’ of love.
6. The perfect suit to wear for a job interview – As you move higher in life, there’s sure to be numerous job interviews. You never get a second chance to make a first impression, so make sure your suit gives the very best first impression.
7. A set of matching luggage – You may need to go on vacation sometime. Do it in style with your set of matching luggage.
8. A matching set of lacy bikini – Who knows? You may need to relax at the beach when you go off on that vacation or go for a swim anytime soon. Make sure your bikini is just perfect for the occasion.
9. A recipe for a meal you are almost perfect at – Even if it’s something basic, make sure you are almost perfect at preparing one complete meal.
10. A first love (and several other loves) – The magic of first love is as painful when it’s over, but the best part of it is that after you cry your eyes out, you let go and become wiser. And when you love again, you will know how to keep it. This time, longer.
11. A broken heart (and the knowledge that you can survive it) – A broken heart means that you tried…at least. Only time (and girlfriends) can heal your broken heart. You can survive it….and love again.
12. One friend that makes you laugh….and one you can always run to– What can we do without close friends? Make friends for life and be a friend yourself.
13. A childhood you are grateful for (though not perfect) – None of us chose our childhood, but we can be grateful for all it taught us (perfect or not).
14. A plan for the future you are looking forward to – Without a plan for your future, how do you know when you get there? Sit down with yourself and write where you see yourself in 3, 5, 10 years and make a plan to get there.
15. A good skin care routine – Glowing skin is the dream of every woman. But it does not just happen. Get a good skin care regimen that is best for your skin type and watch your skin glow.
16. A good hairdresser – A woman’s hair is her crowning glory. Get a hairdresser who understands your hair and can help you maintain it in the best possible way.
17. A tailor who can make drop dead outfits – The way you dress is the way you will be addressed. Get a tailor who knows what style really is.
18. A spiritual foundation and faith in God – Maintaining a relationship with God is the best foundation for life. He is your creator and redeemer, so get closer to Him each passing day.
19. A drop dead gorgeous photo of yourself - to remind you that you are beautiful.
20. A best friend – If you fall down, your best friend will pick you up. If you need a hand or a shoulder to cry on, your best friend will be there.
21. A dream - it all starts with a dream. Dream! Let your imagination run wild while you fill up a blank sheet of paper with everything you want to be, do or have. This will keep you going even in the tough times.
22. The phone number of someone who will drop everything and come when you call.

23. A perfectly fitted bra - Wearing the right sized bra is comfortable, helps your posture and aids the lymph flow inside your breasts. Also, since your breasts will spend most of their time in a bra, should they not be comfortable?
24. A pair of jeans that fit just right - Most ladies will wear a pair of jeans at least once a week. Jeans can also be worn for informal and semi-formal events. Having one that fits just right would make you stand out from the crowd.
25. A handbag you can never get tired of - Handbags are one of those accessories a lady can’t do without. A nice, reasonably sized leather handbag will always do the trick.
26. An average proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel – No matter who you are or what you do, you need to be computer savvy. Start with basic Microsoft Word and Excel, but don’t stop there.
27. Confidence – You are a woman. You are important. Carry yourself as one.
28. Humility – Modesty and an unassuming nature are not signs of weakness. Only a very strong and confident person can be humble. Refuse to get puffed up but remain humble.
29. The guts to say No without feeling guilty – People will always need you to do things for them. Do as much as you can but never choke yourself just to please people. Sometimes you just need to say No.
30. A competitive streak: A desire to be the best and to stand out from the crowd. Make yourself more productive so that you remain relevant.

EntertainmentManufacturers Invent Shirt That Stays Clean For Over 100 Days, No Need For Iron by obynocj(op): 11:09am On May 19, 2013
It could spell an end to laundry days – or at least make them a much less frequent chore. Manufacturers claim they have invented a shirt that stays clean even after 100 days of wear..


The garment resists odour so effectively that it even smells fresh after being worn during rigorous exercise, its makers claim. It is also said to need no ironing because it is made of wrinkle-free material that can withstand even the roughest of treatment.

American company Wool & Prince said they developed the shirt for men who hate having to wash their clothes so often.

They sent researchers around the world wearing the shirts doing everything from backpacking in the Andes to dancing in sweaty New York nightclubs to test their design.

The shirts are made of wool which lasts six times longer than cotton. Laboratory tests have shown that wool fibres resist tearing and can bend back on themselves more than 20,000 times without breaking. Cotton breaks after 3,200 bends.

Wool is also highly resilient to wrinkles because it has a natural crimp.

And the company said that while sweat itself has no odour, it creates an unpleasant smell when it remains on the skin and bacteria develop, but wool reduces this because it is more efficient than other textiles at absorbing sweat and evaporating it into the air.

The company has spent six months developing its trade-marked Cotton-Soft wool fabric for the shirts.

A spokesman said: "We use the finest wool shirting yarn out there-usually reserved for the luxury fashion industry. Our fabric will redefine what you think of wool."

WebmastersGoogle Maps Helps Man Find Parents 23 Years After He Was Abducted by obynocj(op): 10:43am On May 19, 2013
A Chinese man who was abducted as a child about 23 years ago said he was able to find his family with the help of Google Maps...

Luo Gang said he was abducted at age 5 near his school and raised by adoptive parents in Sanming, Fujian province — and all he could remember about his hometown was that it had two bridges, The Daily Telegraph, Britain, reported Friday.
Luo said he posted about his desire to find his biological parents on a Chinese website aimed at reuniting families with missing children, and a contributor replied with information about a Sichuan province couple who lost their son 23 years ago.
Luo said he used Google Maps to research the possibility and found the two bridges he remembered from his youth in Sichuan’s Linshui county.
Luo said he was overjoyed to be reunited with his parents, Huang Qingyong and Dai Jianfang, who had since adopted a daughter.
The parents told Leo of his original name, Huang Jun.
“I felt heartbroken. I couldn’t eat or sleep and I cried every day thinking my son was missing and didn’t have enough food or clothes out there,” Dai said of her son’s disappearance.

Nairaland GeneralMourners Flee As Dead Man Wakes Up At His Funeral by obynocj(op): 12:07pm On May 16, 2013
Mourners at a funeral in Zimbabwe were stunned when the dead man woke up as they filed by his coffin, state media reported today....

Brighton Dama Zanthe, 34, was being laid to rest inside a coffin last Monday after he apparently died at his home following a long illness.

The transport worker's grieving family covered his body with blankets and made arrangements to transfer him to a local mortuary, according to a report in the Herald newspaper.

But the next day Mr Zanthe's friends and relatives scattered in disbelief when he started moving as they filed past to say their emotional goodbyes.

The dead man's boss Lot Gaka told the Herald of the moment he realised his employee was still alive.

He said: 'I was the first to notice Zanthe's moving legs as I was in the queue to view his body. This shocked me.

'At first I could not believe my eyes but later realised that there was indeed some movements on the body as other mourners retreated in disbelief.'

Mr Gaka, who runs a bus company in the midlands city of Gweru, told the newspaper Mr Zanthe had been persistently unwell before his 'death' last week.

He told how he visited the family's home to offer support when his employee's wife called to say he had passed away.

He said: 'Zanthe had been on sick leave for some time and everyone at work was aware that he was critical.

'We would visit him at his home.

'I was not surprised when I received a call from Zanthe's wife on Monday night last week saying that her husband had died.'

He added: 'I visited two local funeral parlours for quotations before I drove to Zanthe's house so that we could take the body to the mortuary.

'Zanthe's body had already been put in a coffin and people were preparing to conduct a body viewing procession so that his body could be taken to a mortuary.

'It was during the body viewing procession that he "resurrected".'

Another witness told the state-controlled newspaper how the family desperately pulled blankets off Mr Zanthe's body to try to revive him after realising he was still alive.

He said: 'Gaka later removed some blankets from Zanthe's body after we noticed some movements and this was when we all realised that there was still life.

'We then called an ambulance which came within seven minutes.

'It's really a miracle and most people are still in disbelief.'

The Herald, which is owned by Zimbabwe's government, reported that Mr Zanthe spent two days on life support after being rushed to the Gweru Provincial Hospital following the incident.

He was discharged last week and has since returned home.

The shaken family man told the newspaper he had only a hazy recollection of the event.

He said: 'This issue can be best told by people who came to my house to attend my funeral.

'I don't know what happened and I only remember being on a life support system in hospital.'

He added: 'Everything is history to me.

'What I can only confirm is that people gathered at my house to mourn but I was given another chance and I am alive. I feel okay now.'

Zimbabwe has been known for their zombies. What would you do if a loved one came back from the dead at their funeral?
