Men will always look and check out a woman’s breasts, butt and legs. It’s in a man’s genes, and doing it just comes naturally. Of course, the tricky part is how to do it in a subtle manner so as not to offend the woman..... But sometimes, no matter how respectful or subtle a man can be, there are just instances when a man cannot steer his eyes away from his subject. Extremely large breasts are natural magnets for a man’s eye. Maybe, that is the reason why some women go to the extent of having implants to enhance the size and looks of their breasts. But when does breast enhancements become too much? Why is it that some women end up overdoing it? Could they have not taken a cue from big-breasted celebrities who have just about the right size? Why did they not follow the examples set forth by actresses like Scarlett Johansson. Pamela Anderson, Raquel Welch, Shannon Elizabeth, Jennifer Connelly or Jessica Simpson? Or maybe, they could have just emulated famous supermodels or reality stars with large breasts, like Kate Upton or Kim Kardashian. They may have various reasons for doing so, but whether you call them fun bags, bosoms, rack, boobs or whatever, here is a list of the top ten largest breast implants in the world. 1. Chelsea Charms Normal breast enhancements usually involve around 400 to 500 cc of augmentation. Chelsea Charms augmented her breasts by 1,200 cc. It may prove to be counterproductive, as I am not sure if she could actually charm a man with such a large chest. 2. Sheyla Hershey She used to have 38KKK size breasts after her implants, but doctors had to remove it after she got sick. She was lethargic and she stayed in bed all day, with pains all over her body (not just her breasts). She also developed a persistent fever. Her breast implants did not exactly turn out to be such fun bags. 3. Beshine She probably has the biggest breasts in all of Europe, and she went through the entire alphabet almost to achieve that distinction. Beshine started out as a B cup, but she now sports an amazing Z. And she loves every moment of it, as she craves for the attention even if it means getting a lot of stares and giggles. She has also become a fitness buff, regularly exercising to improve her back muscles in order for her to carry the heavy stuff up front. The only drawbacks she complains of are the lack of clothes that would fit her body and the inability to sleep on her stomach. 4. BB Gunns Chances are this is not her real name. She is far from a double B, however, as she actually has a 78HHH size breast. Then again, having a name like HHH Gunns, or Triple H Gunns, just does not flow as smoothly as BB Gunns. 5. Busty Dusty Where they get their names, I have no idea. If Busty Dusty is her real name, her parents may have condemned her to a life in the adult film industry right from the start. She measures 54 – 24 – 34, which is already an incredible measurement by any length of the imagination. Apparently, her imagination can leap beyond incredulity, as she has been said to have a 90HHH size breasts. Maybe, it was just the adult film industry’s way of marketing her. I am not sure what viewer or fan she could have gained from a 90HHH breasts that she could not have gotten from a 54. 6. Minka The biggest-breasted Asian in the world, Minka is actually a South Korean tennis coach. She moved to the United States after winning a doubles tournament in Chicago in 1993. She then tried to obtain a permit to teach the sport, but was not able to secure a tennis teacher’s license because of the language difference. The tennis world’s loss was the adult film industry’s gain, as Minka made a successful shift in career after she sent a portfolio of her pictures to John Graham, a noted glamour photographer and adult film director from the United Kingdom. Her 52KKK cup size probably helped adult film producers decide to give her the break that she needed. She has not forgotten her roots, however, as Minka can still provide tennis lessons to anyone who is interested…in tennis, and not her breasts. 7. Lolo Ferrari When she was still alive, Lolo Ferrari sported a 58F cup size. It took her a total of 22 enhancement surgeries before she got her preferred size and look. With a name like Ferrari, one can just imagine the sleekness, stability and strength of her breast implants. 8. Maxi Mounds Maxi Mounds maximized her round mounds to get to the top of the adult film world. Her cup size is 42M, with each breast weighing around 20 pounds. She said it is just like carrying a child between three to four years of age. The only problem is that she cannot put her breasts down. 9. Sabrina Sabrok Sabrina Sabrok is a celebrity in her own right. She hosts a television show, she is a commercial model and she is also a rock star. She even served once as the opening act to a Marilyn Manson show. She also kept getting breast enhancement surgeries to augment her breasts, thus giving her another claim to fame as one of the top ten largest breasts implants in the world. 10. Keisha Evans She has a 56 and a half-inch size chest, brought about mainly by 6,000 cc of liquid being crammed into bags fit for only half that amount. Like others in the list, Keisha Evans is also an adult film star. Unlike the others, however, Evans has learned how to specialize. She runs her own adult site that has for its audience anyone who are fans of big breasts. source http://rankdchyson..com/2013/04/the-top-10-biggest-breast-implants-in.html

Electric cars like the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Volt top the list, but overall the number of fuel-efficient cars that get 30 mpg or better is growing. Two fuel-efficient SUVs and one station wagon make the list, too, thanks to hybrid and clean diesel technologies..... The 2011 model year is a milestone for the U.S. auto industry, with the introduction of two mass-market electric cars, the Nissan LEAF and the Chevrolet Volt. While both are pricey, with federal tax incentives and long warranties, the electric cars are competitive with other showy cars for early adopters. But electric cars aren't the whole story – not by a long shot. While the most fuel-efficient 2010 cars and SUVs was made up of many familiar models, like the Toyota Prius and the Honda Civic Hybrid, the 2011 model year includes the Fiat 500, the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid and the Ford Fusion Hybrid near the top of the list. And not all the cars are tiny two-seaters or hatchbacks like the smart fortwo or the Toyota Yaris: several midsize sedans are available, as is one station wagon from Volkswagen, the clean diesel Jetta SportWagen. The leaders in the SUV category remain the same, with three hybrids the only models in their class to achieve better than 30 mpg. So if you're in the market for a new car, these fuel-efficient models will save money on gas year after year – an important consideration, as the price of oil remains volatile and source http://rankdchyson..com/2013/04/photos-first-ever-electric-cars-launched.html

The latest gist making round is that Nollywood actress Stella Damasus has married fellow actress Doris Simeon’s ex-husband, Daniel Ademinokan secretly... According to sources, Daniel Ademinokan and Stella relocated to Abuja a couple of months back in order to strengthen their relationships. As we speak, the two have married each other in a secret wedding that took place outside of the country. The lovers who now have several business investments together are living a low-key life in the Federal capital territory. It all started as a joke when the Nollywood movie producer started a business deal with the single mother of one. Though they initially denied having an affair, it all came in the open during the launch of their Abuja-based boutique code 55. Previously, he was married to Doris Simeon and they have a daughter together. source http://revealzone..com/2013/04/actress-stella-damasus-secretly-marries.html

Polygamous Apostle Robert Gumbura who is married to nine women is being accused of demanding sex from married women and girls.... Apostle Gumbura, who is the founder and leader of RMG End Time Message Ministry, last week CONFIRMED that he is being investigated by police but quickly dismissed the allegations saying they were cooked stories bent on tarnishing his image. One of the victims said in front of her husband that she refused "man of God's" sexual advances after he invited her for a counselling session where he demanded sex from her. "At first I feared to disclose this to my husband before I discovered from fellow women that it was part of (Apostle) Gumbura's doctrine to have sex with all women and girls to protect their marriages. Gumbura started by asking me to support my husband by accompanying him to music sessions at his house and he would call me into a separate room for counselling. It is at those counselling sessions that he asked if my husband climaxes while having sex and demanded to have sex with me so as to protect my marriage and keep my husband in the church," said the woman. The victim said she denied his sexual advances and he threatened her with a curse if she revealed this to her husband or anyone else. "After discovering that I did not disclose this to my husband he called me again asking to know if I had made my mind about his sexual demands. I informed one of our church members and she told me that she also fell victim to Apostle Gumbura's sexual advances," she said. One of the church members who left Apostle Gumbura's congregation over the allegations said the controversial pastor used the pulpit to demonise any man who threatened to divorce his wife over her secret meetings with him. "Gumbura divided families by having secret meetings with our wives where he warned them against disclosing the real issues discussed in the counselling sessions. Many times Gumbura called my wife for counselling sessions and I would read from her facial expression that she was not telling the truth. After seeing that I suspected what had transpired, Gumbura showered praise for my work in the church," he said. He alleged that Gumbura threatens church members claiming that he is well connected with high profile names. He further alleged that the church is the pastor's platform for abusing girls and women. A source said the 'Man of God' is reportedly using a Bible Verse "Touch not the Anointed one of God" to threaten his victims against exposing his evil acts. Our news crew also attended one of Pastor Gumbura's church services held recently at Hallingbury Primary School Hall where he confirmed losing members during his sermon. However, Gumbura rubbished the rape allegations. "I was picked by police for questioning after one Elizabeth reported that I sexually harassed her. She, together with her friend who is now based in South Africa, are claiming that I sexually harassed them verbally. All this is being done to tarnish my image ahead of the elections. I am standing for Mabvuku. My house was bombed recently and I made a report to the police. I suspect that these are the same people doing that," he said.

France became the 14th country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage today, fulfilling the campaign pledge of Socialist President François Hollande.... But if Mr. Hollande thought passage of the law would be easy in this secular nation, the road to marriage equality has been surprisingly divisive and bitter, even shockingly violent at points. For months, demonstrators protesting the bill have amassed in the streets of Paris – one protest was the largest gathering mobilized around a social issue in nearly 30 years. Since then, extremists have joined the fray. Riot police with tear gas stood on guard at nightly protests in the week leading up to the vote, with dozens of arrests made. Politicians have brawled, and one who supports gay marriage even received a death threat. According to gay rights activists, reports of homophobic incidents have tripled during the six-month battle. That a swath of the population is protesting the issue is not surprising. Conservatives, here and across the Western world, have protested so-called "culture war" issues since the 1970s. But the scope and scale, tinged with hate, is what has caught France off-guard, says Jean-Yves Camus, a political researcher at the Institute for International and Strategic Relations in Paris. “It’s much more strident than expected.” He and other analysts say that the battle here does not necessarily reflect a society that overall is less supportive of the rights of homosexuals than other European countries, where gay marriage has been less controversially adopted. Rather, the heated debate has merged with a general discontentment with Hollande – who faces record low approval ratings – turning the issue into a political rally of sorts against his Socialist administration. Some in the opposition are calling it the “French Spring.” The vote in France comes just days after New Zealand legalized gay marriage. Today, 14 countries have legislated the right for homosexuals to marry, and of those, more than half are in Europe. In 2001, The Netherlands became the very first country to allow gay marriage, followed mostly by other northern European countries. A NEW UGLINESS The issue is divisive almost everywhere, but even in predominantly Catholic Spain, which legalized gay marriage in 2005, the protest was devoid of the ugliness that has marred the debate in France. “Here it was contentious, there was a lot of hate on the street, but there was not blood,” says Boti Garcia Rodrigo, the president of Spain's Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Transsexuals, and Bisexuals (FELGTB). She attributes that in large part to the campaign their federation ran, framing the issue as one exclusively of equality for all. In France, there has been blood. Recently there were attacks in gay bars in Lille and Bordeaux. One man who was beaten up in Paris while walking with his partner posted a photo of himself on Facebook afterwards, battered and bruised, declaring it the “Face of Homophobia.” “What is remarkable is that we see that the far right is very present,” says Mathieu Nocent, a spokesman in Paris for Inter-LGBT, an umbrella organization of French LGBT groups. “We’ve known for a long time that small, far right groups are against abortion, and immigrants … but we did not anticipate that they would use gay marriage as another subject for fighting.” The anti-gay marriage protesters, which include France’s center-right party, the far right, and religious leaders from Catholic, Muslim, and Jewish communities, have deplored the violent actions of radicals. They say theirs is a legitimate fight, not of hate but of preserving traditional family values. Opinion polls show that almost two-thirds of the French public support gay marriage. The latest BVA survey shows 58 percent of respondents voicing support for the right of homosexuals to marry (though a slight majority, 53 percent, opposes adoption by gay couples). POLITICS, NOT CULTURE? Michel Wieviorka, a sociologist and president of the Foundation House of the Sciences of Man, says that French society is not more conservative than other countries. Rather, the debate has converged with politics and economics, causing a spiral on the streets. Those on the right, but increasingly of all political stripes, are questioning the legitimacy of the Hollande administration, says Mr. Wieviorka, so the strikes have become just as much a criticism of the president as of the issue at hand. There is a general sense of insecurity as the country faces a looming, long-term economic crisis, and the debate emerged just as the right was seeking a consensus issue, after it fractured in the wake of former President Nicolas Sarkozy’s lost bid for re-election. “I would say France is less conservative than many other countries. The problem is this conjunction of factors, which does not exist in other countries,” Wieviorka says. Still, the Socialist majority in parliament easily pushed the legislation through, 331 to 225, stirring envy on the other side of the Atlantic. Evan Wolfson, the founder and president of Freedom to Marry in New York, says the attacks have been abhorrent, but they don’t reflect the sentiments of the French public and will do nothing to turn back the law. “I think overall the battle has been much more challenging and difficult and incomplete [in the US],” he says. “The Socialists campaigned on a pledge to end exclusion, won a resounding victory, and the political branches are doing what the people elected them to do.” source http://revealzone..com/2013/04/shocking-france-legalize-gay-marriage.html

Meet 2 grandmothers aged 60 and 96 who are still VIRGINS! MOST gogos have grandchildren, but these two sisters are proud that they are still virgins! Ngipheni Ngcobo (60) and Badumile Ngcobo (96) from KwaMafunza near Pietermaritzburg are the oldest women to attend the annual reed dance at Enyokeni Palace in Nongoma.... Gogo Ngipheni said: "I started going for virginity testing when I was 12. Like all the girls, I wanted to get married to a man who could buy me a beautiful house and take care of me – but this never happened. I waited for Mr Right until I was 43 and then I lost hope. I didn't meet a man suitable to be my husband. All the men who proposed were not what I wanted. Now I am a gogo and I don't want a man next to me. "When I was 26, I was involved with a man and we hoped to build a bright future together. We didn't sleep together because back then there was a practice where unmarried girls had a form of sex without penetration. We were doing things the traditional way but it didn't work out. I heard that he was seeing another girl who wasn't a virgin and we broke up." Nomagugu Ngobese of the Nomkhubulwane Culture and Youth Development Organisation said there is nothing wrong with the sisters deciding to keep their virginity. "It is better to keep your virginity until the grave than to sleep around. Keeping your virginity is a matter of choice. I'm very proud of them. The youth should learn from them," she said. source http://revealzone..com/2013/04/photos-meet-2-grannies-aged-60-and-96.html

Nollywood actress Oge Okoye has stayed relevant in an industry crowded with stars, often by making brave and controversial choices to further her career... The competition in Nigeria’s film industry requires players, particularly the actors and actresses, to give their best, one production after another. It is a tough battle for survival, especially when the same faces and names are being used over and over. She, like most of her colleagues, has become a household name that readily comes to mind when producers and directors take decisions on who would best appeal to an audience. She’s come far in what has been a successful career that has won her a strong viewership base. Okoye’s journey started in 2001. Growing up, she relished the glitz and glamour that came with being a superstar. She grew up in England; however, she had always wanted to act so she took part in auditions for some of Nigeria’s leading production houses. After persistently pushing for acknowledgment, she landed her first major title in the move Sister Mary. Produced by Great Movies Production, Sister Mary shot her to the limelight, and got her career off to a strong start. It was the kind of start she needed to announce her arrival onto the Nigerian movie scene. Around that same year, the industry had taken off, somewhat, and was making inroads in other parts of the world. A fine opportunity it was for her to feed off the popularity at home, she became a known on-screen face in the sub region. Okoye’s love for acting met so many obstacles but the support by her mother, who had always believed in her, helped to spur her on. As a young child, she would parade around their Nigerian home in fanciful clothes, strutting off her lanky legs in typical modeling style. Okoye also took part in drama sessions in her family’s local church, showing off a lot of skill, even at that young age. Those traits grew with her, and decades after, she became the star actress her mother had predicted she would. She later starred in the comedy movie Spanner, alongside the likes of Chinedu Ikedieze and Nkem Owoh. She’s since starred in over 60 others, some of which include Lady Gaga, Blackberry Babes, Beautiful Faces, I want Your Wife, Little Angel, My Desire, Forever Yours, Separate Lives, Blood Sister, Hadsome, and Trinity. Her taking up a role in the 2011 Hollywood produced movie Turning Point, directed by London-based Nigerian Niyi Towolawi and co-produced by Egor Efiok, also earned her some headlines. Okoye only found out about the production two days before shooting started. She thought it was out of place to get involved in such a major production with little or no preparation. Her manager thought otherwise, and she gladly accepted the part. Weeks later, Turning Point, which also featured the likes of Patience Ozokwor, Jackie Appiah, Todd Bridges, Joe Estevez, Igoni Archibong among a host of other Nollywood and Hollywood stars, became a hit and her credibility soared. A big career credit she still boasts off, Okoye can only get better with time so long as she remains relevant, and a dominant Nollywood feature source http://revealzone..ca/2013/04/touching-oge-okoye-sexy-brave-nollywood.html

When you live in a village, gossip spreads like a forest fire. So when I began an affair, it wasn’t long before word of my infidelity got around. Within weeks, friends were confronting me and accusing me — with justification — of being selfish, stupid and immoral. There was one person, however, who was oblivious to my antics. They say a spouse is always the last to know when they are being betrayed: Dominic, my then husband of 13 years, was unaware of my duplicity. He had not realised that when I claimed to be having supper with friends, I was slipping off for illicit trysts with Steve, a fellow parent at my twin daughters’ Surrey prep school. He did not know the truth until someone confronted him with it. He was told by the one person in the world I’d expected would carry my secret to her grave: my mother. I still remember every detail of the afternoon in May 2009 when I discovered Mum had not only betrayed my deepest confidence in the most cavalier and thoughtless way, but had also thrown my marriage into turmoil. I’d been to a business conference, so my mobile had been switched off all morning. When I turned on my phone at lunch, I had scores of missed calls and texts. ‘Your mother has told Dominic. He knows everything,’ was the first one I read, sent by a friend. The shock and alarm I felt were surpassed by an even more potent emotion: I detested Mum for her treachery. I was not only enraged, but perplexed: it was not as if Mum and I had ever been at odds. On the contrary, she had always been my confidante and closest friend. We lived a stone’s throw from each other in a prosperous Home Counties village. I even worked for her business, supplying equipment for tree surgeons. She was a wonderful granny to my twins. And since her marriage to my father ended when I was six — she had an affair, so history was repeating itself — she had showered me with love and kindness. But in that instant, I believed she was the devil incarnate. As I scrolled through my messages, my fury intensified. Everyone was telling me that Mum had let the cat out of the bag. But there was no text from my mother. No message of regret or explanation. Not a word to explain why she had chosen to throw a hand grenade into my life. With trepidation, I rang Dominic. He was boiling with rage. ‘Your mother has told me everything!’ he shouted. ‘I don’t love you any more,’ I snapped. Then he wanted to know every shameful detail. But the searing irony was that my three-month affair with Steve was waning. He’d met someone younger, unencumbered by a husband and children, and had decided to discard me for her. So I’d been outed as an adulteress by my mother just as my affair with someone I thought I loved — a man with whom I was irrationally and hopelessly besotted — was ending. Before you dismiss me as immoral and shameless, let me explain how we’d got to this point. I’d fallen in love with Dominic when I was 16 and he was 23. He’d been my first and only lover until Steve. As a teenager, I’d pursued Dominic. Looking back, I wonder if I did so because he was indifferent to me. I’d had an affluent upbringing and a private girls’ school education. My parents had high aspirations for me. But Dominic, who was clever and good-looking, drifted in and out of jobs. When Mum dispatched me, aged 17, to Monaco to work as an au pair, perhaps she hoped I’d get him out of my system. It was the first sign of her intervention in my romantic life. She never approved of Dominic, which only made me more stubbornly intent on being with him. When I returned to England, I was desperate to set up home with him, and we moved into a flat, later progressing to our own cottage. We married in July 1996, after ten years together. It was a lavish wedding and we combined our reception with Mum’s 50th birthday party. Today, I can see that may have been somewhat claustrophobic. Even as I walked up the aisle, I had qualms about marrying Dominic. He and I had become more like brother and sister than lovers. Indeed, on the first night of our honeymoon in Singapore, he sloped off without me to a party. It set the tone for our married life. And our sex life was disappointing. However, I wanted children, and when our twins arrived in 2002, I hoped they might revive our marriage. But on the day they were born, Dominic, who was not exactly burdened by a sense of paternal responsibility, walked out of his job, claiming it was too pressured. I was furious. But then Mum intervened to help us. She created a role for Dominic in a company she had bought. I was supremely grateful. Despite having twins, I still worked for Mum in her sales and administration department. Frankly, I begrudged the fact Dominic was not emotionally supportive or a good provider. Then in June 2008, at a school sports day, my eyes locked with Steve’s. It was common knowledge his marriage had broken down. At 37, he was the same age as me. We started to chat. He was presentable, public school-educated and great fun. In contrast, Dominic seemed dour and dull. I offered to help with his house move and gave him my number. For six months, we had an ‘emotional affair’: we chatted every day on the phone for hours. I shared confidences with him about my failing marriage; we talked about our children; we laughed and cried together. Steve was in touch with his emotions in a way Dominic never was. He seemed caring while my husband was both needy and remote. It was inevitable that our relationship would become sexual. In January 2009, we slept together for the first time. We met for a drink, he invited me in for coffee and we quickly ended up in bed. In the early hours of that morning, I floated home. For the first time in decades I felt alive. My affair consumed me. I became adept at deception. I lied to Dominic that I was seeing friends. If he was suspicious, he did not let on. My female friends were much more shrewd. They knew precisely what I was up to. ‘Your behaviour is outrageous!’ scolded one friend. I was indignant. I told her I’d fallen in love with Steve and she countered that he was a serial adulterer. But infatuation made a fool of me. I was convinced my future was with him. And this is when I confessed to my mother. We sat in her garden one afternoon and I admitted everything. I said my marriage was as good as over and that I’d never felt so happy. Mum did not judge me. She knew I was miserable with Dominic and asked if I loved Steve. I insisted that I did. Then she said: ‘You can’t go on deceiving Dominic if you’re certain Steve is the one. You’ll have to tell Dominic the truth.’ But I could not bear to think of the row that would ensue if I confessed. In the event, of course, it was Mum who broke the news. I marched into her office in a rage. ‘You’ve told him!’ I shrieked. ‘I had no choice,’ she said. ‘He came in to see me and was so upset. He suspected you. The whole village knew. I had to put him out of his misery.’ Mum was indignant. She said she couldn’t understand my fury, that she was merely obeying a motherly instinct. But I believed she should have directed her maternal instincts towards me rather than her son-in-law. She insisted there had been ‘too much poison and deception’ and ‘the boil needed to be lanced’. Though her marriage had ended because of her infidelity, I don’t believe she was trying to end mine because I’d been unfaithful. It was typical of her high-handedness. She was always prone to opening her mouth before engaging her brain. But this time she’d over-stepped the mark. She says she had no desire for vengeance and I don’t think she was acting out of malice. But the impact of her betrayal was devastating. She could have told me Dominic had got wind of my infidelity and urged me to tell him the truth. But that’s not her way — and to this day, she says she would do it again. Such was my rage that I resigned from my job working for her. (I now run my own company selling safety equipment). I was so hurt I ceased all communication with her for a year. Mum did not attempt to contact me either. She had been a doting grandmother, yet she did not see my children for three months. Then she started inviting Dominic and our daughters to her house without me. She said it was the only way she could maintain contact with them. I saw it as further evidence of her cruelty and insensitivity, but she refused to see my point. Meanwhile, my marriage limped on miserably. Dominic’s trust in me was destroyed. And Mum kept upping the stakes: on Easter Sunday she invited him and the girls for lunch. I was still too angry to confront her, so I seethed silently. And so our cold war continued. Mum maintains she felt as hurt as I did. She says she never stopped loving me and believed any attempt to see me would be fruitless, so kept a judicious distance. I suppose we were both stubborn. Steve had sent me an abrupt and cruel email telling me our affair was over. It was months before I realised that all my friends were right: he was not worth grieving over. By April 2010, Dominic and I had become resigned to the inevitable and we split up. Ironically, it was this separation that heralded the rapprochement with Mum. A couple of weeks after we parted, I needed a babysitter, and it was this that precipitated my ice-breaking call to her. The girls did not want anyone except Granny to look after them. It was the first time we’d spoken for a year. The conversation was polite, but banal. There was no recrimination on either side; neither was there any reference to our estrangement. Mum agreed to babysit, and when she arrived, she threw her arms round me and said: ‘I’m here for you, my darling.’ I wept in her arms. Since that day, three years ago, we have built bridges. I know now Mum was not being cruel when she told Dominic about my affair. I know, too, she paid a price for that — some of my friends crossed the road to avoid her. We had been close, so she was deeply hurt by our estrangement. But I believe we were too close. We don’t live in each other’s pockets any more. It’s only recently, though, that we’ve been able to speak about what happened, but only in oblique terms. When I told her I was going to write this article, she was sanguine, saying: ‘I acted out of compassion for Dominic. I didn’t have any desire for vengeance. I just told the truth. ‘I didn’t imagine I’d become persona non grata, the lowest of the low. I can’t describe how horrible it was to be estranged from you, who I love so much, but I didn’t try to contact you because I knew it would be fruitless. I knew you’d come back to me in your own time.’ And, indeed, I have forgiven Mum. But our previously affectionate relationship has changed. I am much more guarded with her and there is still an unresolved tension between us. Her disloyalty is the elephant in the room. Both of us are afraid that if we discuss her betrayal it would lead to an almighty flare-up. So we dance around the subject. I know I can’t blame my mother for the failure of my marriage. It was ailing anyway. She just precipitated its end. Seven months ago, I began seeing James, 49, who runs his own building company. My life is happier now. And I have Mum to thank for that.

1. Diddy - $580 million: The bulk of the Bad Boy Records founder’s wealth comes from non-musical ventures, namely his deal with Diageo’s Ciroc. The agreement entitles him to eight-figure annual payouts and a nine-figure windfall if the brand is ever sold—and Ciroc’s value has never been higher 2. Jay Z - $475 million: He’s still rolling in cash from megadeals like his $204 million Rocawear sale in 2007 and his $150 million pact with Live Nation the following year. He continues to hold stakes in Roc Nation, Carol’s Daughter, the Brooklyn Nets and, more significantly, the Barclays Center itself, while adding new partnerships with the likes of Duracell, Budweiser and Bacardi’s D’ussé Cognac 3. Dr Dre - $350 million: It's thanks mostly to his Beats by Dr. Dre headphones. A year after selling 51% of the company to handset maker HTC for $300 million in August 2011, Dre and his partners bought back half of the half they sold in 2012—and their investment continues to soar in value due to Beats’ whopping 65% market share of the premium ($99 and up) headphone market. 4. Bryan “Birdman” Williams - $150 million: Riding from his Cash Money/Young Money empire. His roster includes Drake, Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne (the latter crossed the $100 million threshold for the first time this year, by our estimates, but remains just outside the top five). Birdman also recently launched a YMCMB clothing line and a spirit called GT Vodka. 5. 50 Cent - $125 million: The bulk of his fortune came from heavy sales of his music, merchandise, video games and books in the wake of his smash debut Get Rich or Die Tryin’- and particularly from his payout for the sale of his stake in VitaminWater parent Glacéau to Coca-Cola in 2007.

revealzone love Some relationships are like glass............sometimes it’s better to leave it broken, than to hurt yourself more by trying to put it back together... Just because one person doesn't seem to care for you, doesn't mean you should forget about everyone else who does. Don’t mess with someone’s feelings just because you’re unsure of yours. True happiness comes from within, not from someone else. Don’t make the mistake of waiting on someone or something to come along and make you happy. Don’t choose the one who is beautiful to the world, choose the one who makes your world beautiful. Lies help no one in the long run. So… 1) Don’t say “I love you” if you don’t mean it. 2) Don’t say “I understand” if you have no clue. 3) Don’t say “I’m sorry” if you’re not. 4) Be honest with yourself and your loved ones. Tell the truth, or eventually someone will tell it for you....Remember, good relationships don’t just happen; they take time, patience and two people who truly want to work to be together. Falling in love is not a choice. To stay in love is!!! source http://revealzone..com/2013/03/the-real-thing-we-dont-know-about.html#more

"When I read that a governor bought me my new car, I was annoyed by it but later found it funny. I've never met the said governor before. I've not even seen him from a distance. I've only seen him on TV and newspapers. So how can a man I've only seen on TV buy me a car? You know, people will always talk but the truth is, I don't know that man. And about my parents hearing about it, they know me. I don't lie to them so it wasn't an issue. They understand that lies like this come with the job. I love this job and this is the sacrifice I have to make. And the man in life also knows me very well, he didn't even for once ask me if the story of me dating a south south governor was true. That's my car. He knows how I got it. I didn't have to prove anything to him for a second." - actress Nuella Njubigbo source http://revealzone..com/2013/03/how-can-governor-ive-only-seen-on-tv_6026.html

He has made so much impact in Nollywood to the extent that some of the stars the industry is proud of today have his touch in their lives. The Igbo born actor who has turned a pastor has revealed in an interview that he’s if he had the opportunity of coming back to this world again, he would still be an actor and a pastor but he would love to be a Yoruba man by birth and inclination. Hear him, “If I have to come back to this world, I will be an actor again, I will be pastor and I will be a Nigerian again but I’ll like to change my tribe, I will like to be a Yoruba man (laughs). Reasons are, Yoruba people are very receptive; they are the only people that can give you a land irrespective of your tribe. They have a large heart. This is my 40th year in Yoruba land and God made me what I am today in Yoruba land. I am a Lagosian take it or leave it. This is where my children can call their home, this is where we met God; this is where I made my dream and it is where I met my wife.” I think this is a good one for the Yorubas, in fact, Lagos State should be proud to have this kind of commendation from an Igbo man. source http://revealzone..com/2013/03/i-will-like-to-change-my-tribe-from.html |
Paul and Peter with Maria When mum-of-two Maria Butzki left her husband Paul for another man, she didn’t realise how much she’d miss him. At the same time, she couldn’t imagine living without her new lover Peter Gruman.. So when the two men struck up an extraordinary friendship, she came up with the perfect solution... and moved Peter into the family home in Barking, East London. Now Maria, 33, Paul, 37, their two children, Laura, 16, and Amy, 12, and Peter, 36, live as one big happy family. “People might think it’s weird but I love both men and couldn’t choose between them,” says Maria, a housing liaison officer. “When I left Paul there was a huge hole in my life. But the thought of never seeing Peter again was heartbreaking. So living with both men is the only way.” The Happy family ( Maria with her husband, lover and kids) Incredibly, the men agree. Paul, a railway assessor, says: “Peter is a great guy. When Maria first had the affair with him I was just heartbroken. But as I got to know him, I realised we have so much in common. We both adore fishing, and he’s like a surrogate dad to the kids.” Peter, a construction site manager, adds: “We all get on so well. It doesn’t feel as if I’m sharing Maria. There’s no jealousy ...it feels as if we area team.” It was last year that they all moved in together after three years of Maria to-ing and fro-ing between her husband and lover. Peter sleeps on the sofa while Paul has a room upstairs. Maria shares a bedroom with her eldest daughter. She says: “The three of us never share a bed. Although I have a sexual relationship with each man, that side is kept very private. If Paul is out, then Peter and I might make love, and vice-versa. But both men turn a blind eye and we never discuss it with one another.” Maria was 15 when she and Paul met at school. After dating for two years, she unexpectedly became pregnant. Paul proposed seven months into her term and a month later they married. Four years after the birth of Laura, Maria had their second daughter Amy. But in 2006 their marriage hit a rocky patch. Paul and Maria on their wedding day Maria says: “Paul was out of work for six months and it put a strain on our relationship. The stress led to less sex and we grew apart. Although we carried on with life – cooking, cleaning, looking after the children – we’d lost our intimacy. The relationship was more brother and sister than a couple.” Around the same time a new manager, Peter, started at Maria’s workplace. “Someone introduced me to Peter and when we smiled at one another, I could feel the chemistry straight away,” she says. “Until that moment, I’d been happily married for 13 years to my childhood sweetheart and had never thought about being with another man.” Peter, who was also married at the time, recalls the same instant attraction. “It was like a bolt from the blue... love at first sight,” he says. Soon the pair were meeting secretly. “We’d meet at the local pub for lunch,” says Maria. “One day he put a hand on my leg and my whole body began trembling with desire. I knew it was wrong but soon we were sleeping together.” Their affair carried on for a year before Paul stumbled on messages between them on Maria’s phone. She managed to convince him they were just friends. But a few months later her lover left his wife and moved from Luton, Beds, to be closer to Maria in Barking. “I grew even closer to Peter,” says Maria. “Paul had to go away on business for a few weeks and so Peter took the children shopping, spoiling them rotten with gifts.” But on Valentine’s Day in 2010, Maria says she could no longer cope with the secrecy. “I began to feel more and more that my future lay with Peter,” she says. “So I confessed my affair to Paul, and moved out to stay with Peter.” Paul and the children were devastated. He says: “I was just shocked and heartbroken. I couldn’t believe Maria had left me.” Over the next few months Paul and Maria took turns to have the children. “I felt bad about tearing the family apart,” says Maria. “So after work I’d go and clean and cook for Paul and the kids and then go home to Peter.” Paul says: “While I was so upset, I decided to try to put the children first. It was going to be much better if we could all be mature adults and be amicable about it. I could see Peter was a decent guy. When the kids went to stay over I knew he was putting himself out to make sure they were happy. I’d go to pick them up and we got chatting.” Over the next year their relationship became even more amicable. Maria says: “Rather than cook two separate dinners, it was easier to just do one and all sit down together. Paul and Peter got on so well they went on a fishing trip together. We even started going on days out and holidays together. Pals Peter and Paul “It was strange but I noticed I felt at my happiest when we were all together. The children adored having both of them around too.” Then in November 2012 the tenancy on Peter’s rented flat came to an end. He went to stay with a friend and Maria moved back to the family home. Maria says: “It was supposed to be a temporary arrangement but while I missed Peter terribly, it was fantastic to be back as a family.” When Peter found another flat, Maria decided it was time to sit both men down and be honest with them. “I said I loved them both,” she says. “I said I couldn’t face living without either of them.” To her delight, both men said they understood. Peter says: “By now Paul and I had developed a huge respect for each other. We didn’t see one another as rivals for Maria’s affections. We were friends who got on well. At the same time I’d come to care so much for the children. It seemed natural to live together.” Paul says: “Maria was and still is my soulmate.” The “family” are now in the process of buying a larger house to accommodate them all. Maria admits many friends and family find the arrangement difficult to understand. “Some people are shocked, mostly because they get the wrong idea and think it’s some sort of party,” she says. “Most people seem to think I should just remain with Paul, but those who see all of us together think differently.” She adds: “There are huge benefits to living together. For example, as Paul and I leave for work early, Peter is often able to take the children to school. “Ultimately the children benefit from three adults able to help with school work or give them lifts. Financially too, it makes sense as the bills are split three ways.” Ironically, Maria is now the one who sometimes gets jealous. “I’m left on my own when the pair of them go on a long fishing trip,” she says. She’s unsure what the sleeping arrangements will be in their new house. “But we would never have any sort of rota where I sleep with Peter one night and Paul the next. I do know I’m very lucky to have two wonderful men in my life.” source http://revealzone..com/2013/03/strange-affair-meet-husband-wife-and.html

Times Change and So Do the Way We Do Things In the past if you had a computer you used at work or home, you would more than likely purchase a backup drive so your files would be save in case your computer crash for some reason.. This way you would still have your files on your back up drive and everything would be fine. However, over time your backup drive would get fuller and fuller, and many of the files you're backing up you don't need anymore, but who has the time to find and delete them? This was a great deal of fuss for some people, especially those who were determined to back up their files frequently. But things have now changed; now you can back up everything online. When you use the cloud back up system you get a peace of mind knowing that your most precious information is protected and accessible around the clock. Best of all the backed up files are a copy of your hard drive so when you delete a file you don't need anymore, you don't need to find it on your backup device to destroy it, it is done automatically for you. What Else Can Cloud Do For Me? A lot of people do not realize that cloud can offer them so much more than just online backup. The cloud also offers you protection and security, so no matter where you are or whatever device you are on whether it is a laptop, iPad or anything other device that has internet capabilities, you can be sure to have access to your files and data. This is great for anyone who uses a computer for work or pleasure. But the advantages do not stop there, as they have made file restoration and retrieval so much easier. Remember when you had to open file by file? Today many cloud backup service provide automatic restoration, so you don't have to pick and choose, it's done for you. What is the Price? Cloud backup can range from free to $20/month. There are a few factors to consider. Upload speed, many of the free providers limit your upload speed to keep costs down, so it takes a long time for the initial backup. Store quota, which basically means how much total data you can backup. Many free services give you 5 GB free, but if you need more you can upgrade to a premium service. Seed load, this is when the cloud company sends you a hard drive for your initial backup, you place your files on it and send it back. For corporate clients this saves a lot of money as internet bandwidth is very expensive when it comes to large amounts of data. You won't find seed loads with free services, but some of the premium cloud providers offer this feature. There are many cloud service providers out there. The right provider depends largely on what type of service you require. If you need online storage you may look at something like Dropbox, SugarSync, Google Drive or Skydrive. If you're looking for business oriented service you may look into a service provider that delivers multiple cloud services like NIRIX source http://sitedesignerz..com/2013/03/a-new-and-easier-way-to-back-up-your.html |
Terrible things are happening all over the place. Last week, a man who pretended to be a Mad man was caught around Lomalinda Estate, Independence Layout Enugu near the Brick house Estate Refuse Bin, picking used Sanitary Pads... Initially, young guys around there thought he wasactually mad but one of the guys said the guy had hung around too long near the refuse bin and so he got suspicious. The guys kept on drinking and gisting amongst themselves and the so-called mad man laid down and started sleeping. ... Around 9:30pm when the shops started closing for the day, the man woke from his evil sleep and went over the refuse bin and started picking used sanitary pads again. The guy who had earlier on suspected that the mad man was there for some funny mission went over to see why the mad man had suddenly become very active and lo and behold, he had already picked up a bag-ful and was filling the second bag. The guys gathered around and beat him black and blue until he confessed that a politician asked him to get them and pays N400k for a bag. When he was searched, he had a Blackberry phone on him. He managed to escape being lynched by the young men. So please Guys, kindly advise your wives, sisters, girlfriends, relations and loved ones to always BURN their USED Sanitary Pads before disposing. Evil people are all over the place...... Share This cos somebody Might be in need of it!!! Thanks source http://revealzone..com/2013/03/an-acclaimed-mad-man-caught-picking.html

Rihanna has felt the full force of her mum’s fury after semi-naked images of the singer surfaced online. The snaps – featuring Rihanna nude from the waist down and wearing only a bra – were taken by her pal Melissa Forde, who subsequently posted them on Instagram. Despite frequently stripping off for the camera and smoking suspicious cigarettes, these particular pics of Rihanna left her mum Monica reeling. And she vented her rage at her famous daughter recently when the pair caught up on the phone. Rihanna told Elle magazine: “I'm not afraid of any person in this world, but my mother, I'm terrified of her. “She called me two days ago and reeled me in about two naked pictures Melissa put up on Instagram – a sneak peek from a photo book she's making about me. “She went crazy on me. I was, like, embarrassed. I felt like I got my a** whipped in front of my class at school. “She humbled the f*** out of me.” Source http://revealzone..com/2013/03/see-rihanna-mums-rage-over-daughters.html

fish_weird_1 Red fish for chyson 1. The common fangtooth, or Anoplogaster cornuta, is a small, deep-sea fish with some of the largest teeth in the ocean, proportional to its size. 2. The aptly-named blobfish is now in danger of being wiped out. The bloated bottom dweller, which can grow up to 12 inches, lives at depths of up to 900m making it rarely seen by humans. But thanks to increasing fishing of the seas Down Under, the fish is being dragged up with other catches. Despite being inedible, the blobfish unluckily lives at the same depths as other more appetizing ocean organisms, including crab and lobster. 3. The obese dragonfish is a deep-water-dwelling fish with bioluminescent capabilities. Photophores, or light producing organs, cover the fish in rows and below both eyes. 4. A male jawfish is seen with eggs in his mouth in the Philippines. After mating, the female jawfish gives the eggs to the male. The fish are known as mouthbreeders. 5. The tassled scorpionfish in the Solomon Islands of the South Pacific is a venomous, carnivorous fish. 6. Frogfish, seen here in Bali, Indonesia, are found in tropical and subtropical oceans and are a type of anglerfish. They use mimicry and camouflage to either hide from predators or look like a potential meal for their prey. They are scaleless and usually have unusual shapes and textures. 7. A young box fish is seen off Sulawesi Island, Indonesia. The fish are shaped like a box and are brighter when younger. As they age, they turn blue-gray in color. 8. Coffinfish are deep-sea fish with a short bioluminescent lure on their first dorsal fin that dangles forward over the mouth. 9. A recently discovered fish named ‘psychedelica,’ which bounces on the ocean floor like a rubber ball, is shown in the waters off Ambon Island, Indonesia. The frogfish – which has a swirl of tan and peach zebra stripes that extend from its aqua eyes to its tail – was initially discovered by scuba diving instructors working for a tour operator in shallow waters. The fish, like other frogfish, has fins on both sides of its body that have evolved to be leglike. 10. Alligator Gar. This prehistoric-looking fish is a popular target for anglers, especially in south central U.S. They can grow over eight feet in length and weigh over 300 pounds, and put up an excellent fight, whether by rod-and-reel or by bowfishing. The alligator gar is so named because of their mouth, which resemble the elongated snout and teeth of the large reptile. Not only are they a worthy foe for anglers and bowfishers, they are a tough fish in general, as they can survive outside of water for upwards of two hours. Their flesh is considered a delicacy in the U.S. source http://rankdchyson..com/2013/03/the-10-weirdest-fishes-in-ocean.html

The family of Facebook murder victim Katie Wynter have spoken of their “living hell” – to warn about the dangers of social networking sites. Katie, a talented young art student, was duped into dating twisted loner Tony Bushby after he created four fake Facebook profiles. His phoney friends all got to know the shy, church-going 19-year-old online and the messages he sent pretending to be them persuaded her to trust and like him. Chillingly, at the same time, karate teacher Bushby was also watching violent “submissive black girl” P0*n and r*pe websites — and Googling murder methods for burying a body. Six months after he convinced her to go out with him, Bushby killed Katie, stabbing her 23 times in a frenzied knife attack while she babysat her young nephew and niece — then tried to pin it on one of his fake Facebook friends. Her grief-stricken mum Joy Briscoe warns: “Facebook is a dangerous thing, especially for young girls. As a parent, you don’t know what your child is getting up to. “I wish I’d kept a closer watch on her. You just expect your kids to be safe in your own home.” It is a year since Katie’s funeral, but for support worker Joy, 57, and her elder daughter Sabrina, 31, their pain is still raw. The brutal murder took place in Sabrina’s home in Borehamwood, Herts, where Katie was staying overnight to babysit her niece and nephew, then aged four and five. Joy went round to check all was OK and walked into a bloodbath. She says: “I could hear the children chattering. I called out their names and they ran to the door. “They were shouting, ‘Grandma, Katie’s dead’. My heart dropped into my stomach. “Then I saw bloody footprints and, poking out from under the door frame, were Katie’s feet. “I ran into the kitchen and was confronted by something like out of a horror film — my little girl, covered in blood. I tried to lift her but she was already cold and stiff.” As police arrived Joy called Sabrina to break the terrible news. Sabrina, who has asked that her children are not named, says: “They still talk about it. It hurts so much to think of them carrying this image of their auntie in their heads. My daughter still draws pictures of Katie covered in red. “I hope the memories of what they saw will fade one day — they remember it so vividly.” Katie had met Bushby, 19, at West Hertfordshire College in Watford, but their relationship developed online. He was in the year above and considered an outsider. After he had gained her trust through his Facebook lies, they started secretly dating in June 2011. Joy had her suspicions about Bushby from the first time she saw him with Katie. She says: “His eyes were glazed. I had this horrible gut feeling about him. He seemed strange, anti-social.” Sabrina adds: “He was her first boyfriend so I thought she’d be excited to talk about him. But she would shrug off any question. “We imagine she was told to keep quiet about their relationship. He wanted to cover his tracks.” They believe Bushby planned to kill Katie on December 23, but because she had told Sabrina she was meeting him, he changed his mind. Instead he bombarded her with texts and Facebook messages over Christmas, then stabbed her to death on Boxing Day. In court, Bushby initially claimed the killer was Dan Tress — one of his fake Facebook friends along with Cyn Darwin, Shane Pleuon and Krystal Stanguard. But police confirmed all the profiles were his. Bushby was sentenced to 25 years in prison for murder at St Albans Crown Court in July last year. For the family, losing Katie is a heartache they feel daily. Sabrina says: “We will never forgive him. He’s not just robbed us of Katie, he’s destroyed us all as well. “He’s taken her life, but he’s claiming all of ours. We’re living on earth through hell.” Joy adds: “We need to speak out to make sure that social media crimes like this stop. Parents need to be more aware of what their children are doing online. “If we can save one life, then at least something positive can come out of this tragedy.” source http://revealzone..com/2013/02/facebook-wahala-15-year-old-girl-killed.html
