ABUJA: Nigeria's anti-corruption police is working with Microsoft to halt thousands of fraudulent e-mails in a crackdown on internet crime in Africa's most populous country. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) said yesterday its new project "Eagle Claw" was aimed at improving Nigeria's tarnished image as one of the world's top countries for internet crime. "Upon full deployment, the capacity to take down fraudulent e-mails will increase to 5 000 monthly," said Farida Waziri, the agency's chairwoman. The agency said it had already shut down 800 scam websites and arrested 18 people. - Reuters

ABUJA — MINISTER of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), Senator Muhammad Adamu Aliero, is set for war with the management of the Power Holdings Company of Nigeria (PHCN) Plc over what he described as indiscriminate felling of trees in the nation’s capital city, just as he has threatened to sanction them over the act.

Aliero who noted that the act was totally unacceptable to the government and even in line with international laws, stressed that the FCTA spent money, time, energy, among others in nurturing them to maturity for PHCN to just wake up and cut them without permission from the FCTA.

The Minister also disclosed that arrangements have been concluded for the introduction of payment of fees by residents on the use of access roads in the Federal Capital Territory, adding that the administration must source for revenue as it can no longer rely on only government’s revenue, just as he stressed that people must pay for services they enjoy.

Addressing journalists in Abuja yesterday, the Director, Parks and Recreation, Isa Shauibu said if the act persisted, the administration would be left with no option than to invoke the provision of the law against the PHCN.

The PHCN had recently embarked on massive felling of some environmental friendly trees which, according to it, have been hindering its installations in the Asokoro and other districts of the territory.

Shauibu who noted that the Minister had been worried over the development, said PHCN was not in any way authorised to carry out the felling of the trees.

“The Power Holdings Company of Nigeria (PHCN) has been carrying out unauthorised trees felling against our normal rules and regulations. What we expected from them is to report to the department and they explain that they want to carry out certain activities. They have to be guided because there are standard ways of felling trees rather than go to the base of the tree and cut it off.

“Some of these trees may even be lost because they may be exposed to infections and eventually may not grow again. There is a compelling need for them to always draw our attention,” he said.

KUALA LUMPUR (AFP) – A baby boy who made a surprise arrival on board an AirAsia flight this week will be given free flights for life with the budget carrier, as will his mother, the airline said Friday.

AirAsia said 31-year-old passenger Liew Siaw Hsia went into labour on Wednesday's flight from the northern island of Penang to Kuching on Borneo island.

The aircraft made an emergency diversion to the Malaysian capital but the baby arrived just before landing, delivered by a doctor who was on board and who was assisted by the airline's flight attendants.

"The baby was safely delivered when flight AK 6506 was approaching Kuala Lumpur for landing at 2,000 feet," the airline said in a statement, adding that mother and baby were taken to a nearby hospital following touchdown.

"To celebrate this momentous occasion, we decided to present both mother and child with free flights for life," said AirAsia's director of operations Moses Devanayagam after visiting them in hospital.

Worst date who was your first worst date??
U want to know mine, i dont have one, The three i have dated are perfectly made and touchd

When it comes to dating, we all know how hard it is to know who the bad seeds are (especially if your type is the bad seed), and especially if when we meet them it's in a haze of bar smoke. It's easy to think everyone is nice and worth your time, or think that everyone sucks and you're better off becoming a nun and devoting your life to Jesus. No need to purchase a rosary yet, sister, because here's a list of the easy-to-pick-out dudes who you should avoid like a pair of camouflage Crocs.

The Guy Who Lives With His Mother

This one is easy to justify in your head - "Well, he needs to take care of his family," or "It's super temporary and it's only because he's trying to save money." No. The second he says you can't chill at his place because it's his mom's night to watch Desperate Housewives, say "peace." Avoid if you can. There's nothing like always having the guy in your apartment, or having to endure the walk of shame past his parents in their bathrobes. It also implies a few insecurities about growing up and being self-sufficient, something that is imperative to a relationship. Moving along,

The Guy Who Wears a Bluetooth, All The Time

Even if he works for Verizon, there's no excuse why he can't talk on the phone like a normal human being. Plus, if he's constantly plugged into something (something that makes him look like Madonna circa 1985, or a McDonald's drive-thru worker), that means he will never completely be paying attention you, you're just filler until his next important call comes through. That is, if he ever actually gets important calls, and it's not just a cover. A Bluetooth is like the man version of the scrunchie.

The Guy Who Knows His Marc Jacobs Better Than You

There is nothing wrong with a well-dressed man, in fact, we appreciate them in all forms. However, be careful when you meet a man who mentions how current your Miu Miu heels are, or that your bag would be better paired with some Chloe boots he saw last week. Mr. I Know My Prada could either be gay, or higher maintenance than you. It's one thing if he's Jay-Z and will take you shopping, another if he's going to be judging the Snuggie you keep in your apartment. If you suspect he may like boys, send him over to Bluetooth guy.

The Club Promoter

It might be nice to be able to jump the line at Marquee or have free bottle service at 1Oak (we've all done it), but never date a club promoter. It's nice to have one in your back pocket to impress your high school friends when they come to town, but they're notoriously slutty and are more trouble than you're ready for. Not only will they ditch you the minute Lily Donaldson wants to talk to them, but if things go south you can never go back to, kind of any club again.

The Two Polo Shirt Guy

Not so much a city thing, but this is definitely a shout-out to college campuses nation-wide. If you can spot their spray tan from across a frat house, you can bet they're sporting two popped-collar polos as well. Maybe you're going through a jock phase, which is fine. Just stick to the shy floppy-haired soccer players rather than the guy who's playing beer pong with Muscle Milk. I shouldn't have to explain why, you're just better than that.

The first tip for understanding women in relationships is that women are very up and down. Women are like a roller coaster when it comes to emotion, decisions, and every area of their life. Women also want a man who is firm. That is why women go for the men who treat them horribly. They know what to expect from that type of man and he will always let her know where he stands.

The second tip for understanding women in relationships is that they need to feel special and important. They need to feel like they are the most important and special person in your world, especially when it comes to women. If you aren't taking the time to do little things to let her know you are thinking about her, especially when you are apart, she will hit one of those emotional roller coasters. Do yourself a favor, make sure you are leaving notes, calling her on your lunch break, and wrapping your arms around her as she does the dishes.

The third tip for understanding women in relationships is that they want security. Women want to at least feel secure in their relationship. This comes out in many different ways. Some women will stay with men that are horrible for them if that man is able to provide for them financially. For some women this is security. If you want to keep a woman be sure to provide mental and emotional security. She wants you to listen when she needs to talk, and that's all. Don't try to solve their problems, because they don't want you to solve their problems. Just provide the security by listening and being able and willing to solve it if she needs.

Here is a secret tip for understanding women in relationships. Women may think the nice guy is a great man, but nice guys finish last because that doesn't turn a woman on. A woman wants a man who can do them mentally. They want a man who will not always give them what they want, and won't be predictable for when he will and won't give her what she wants. She doesn't want a man who will bow down and kiss her shoes, all the time.

You have done everything trying to get pregnant. You made love regularly, enough and at the right time. But now you are facing the dreaded 2ww. The 2ww stands for "the 2 weeks wait", the time between ovulation and your menstrual period. Hopefully your menstrual period won't come and you will be rewarded with a positive pregnancy test.

But what are you going to do while you wait these 14 days before you know if you have succeeded in getting pregnant?

Here are 50 things to do in the 2ww:

1. Take your daily prenatal vitamins including folic acid
2. Write a daily journal
3. Update your facebook page
4. Don't smoke
5. Don't drink alcohol
6. Set some goals and write them down
7. Make a new budget
8. Write down babynames
9. Make your home green
10. Organize your home
11. Treat yourself to facials and bubble baths
12. Eat healthy - leafy vegetables contain a lot of folic acid
13. Go out and have good food - Once you are pregnant you may not geel like it
14. Drink pineapple juice or fresh pineapple slices - contains selenium which aids with implantation
15. Eat walnuts
16. Use loose clothes : nothing that fits too tight
17. Don't lift anything too heavy
18. Exercise - but in moderation
19. Take long walks
20. Hydrate well - Drink 1 or 2 liters of water each day
21. Enjoy making love - at this point it's for pure fun not bab ymaking
22. If you have to, drink coffee but limit it to 2 cups a day
23. Go out,
24. Try to stay busy so you do not obsess too much
25. Find a good obstetrician
26. Investigate good hospitals
27. Calculate the exact day when your pregnancy test should be positive
28. Watch one dvd a day
29. Send your husband a love letter each day
30. Clean up the refrigerator
31. Get rid of toxic chemicals in your house
32. Take a regular nap - Naps are God's gift to the impatient.
33. Meditate - Do Yoga
34. Spend more time talking to your husband
35. Go out with a girlfriend for some tea
36. Ask your husband to do the vacuuming, dishwasher, laundry, and garbage disposal
37. Practice peeing on a stick - with a Q tip

Na wah oh, e don enta make u say u no fit get job. By d way, are the best student in English? Everybody make mistake and they are inevitable, SO, wetin be big deal

AFTER staying off the universities for about months, students will today know if they are to return to their classrooms, or continue with the compulsory holiday engendered by their teachers’ strike. It was learnt yesterday that the teachers’ umbrella body, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has begun the process of calling off the strike.
The Nigerian Compass reliably gathered that ASUU’s highest decision making organ, National Executive Council (NEC), began a crucial meeting last night to appraise the outcome of Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole’s intervention in the lecturers’ face-off with the Federal Government over university funding and other sundry issues.
Expectedly, a concrete decision would be taken at the all-night meeting, while a pronouncement would be made public today.
But, ASUU National President, Professor Ukachukwu Awuzie, declined comments on when the council would meet when the Nigerian Compass spoke with him on phone yesterday.
“Though, we have gone beyond the level that we were before, but I cannot say anything until the next NEC meeting of ASUU. NEC will decide the next move by the union and we are in touch with our members,” he said.
According to him, the terms and everything about the agreement would be reviewed by NEC.
The union had called its members out from the classrooms and laboratories on an indefinite nationwide strike on June 22, to demand improved funding of university education, improved infrastructural development, enhanced welfare package for lecturers and the reinstatement of the sacked 44 University of Ilorin lecturers.
Also being demanded was an endorsement of the agreement reached with the Federal Government and autonomy for the system, bedeviled with inadequate facilities, brain drain, acute underfunding, dearth and obsolete laboratory and research equipment, dilapidated structures, classroom congestion and limited admission, among others.
When all attempts by the Federal Government to force the lecturers back to the classrooms failed, the Arewa Consultative Forum intervened by asking the government to open negotiation with the union.
However, the government appointed Oshiomhole, a former labour leader, to re-open negotiation and discuss with the striking lecturers on its behalf.
The negotiation, which had in attendance the Education Minister, Dr Sam Egwu, ASUU team and Deacon Gamaliel Onosode was said to have met several times last week.
The Edo State helmsman was appointed “the special mediator” by President Umaru Yar’Adua after efforts by the Onosode-led team failed to make the striking teachers go back to the classrooms without getting answers to their demands.
At one of the meetings, the mediator said the team had a mandate to find a common ground to proceed so that the dispute could be resolved.
According to Oshiomhole, the question of the lecturers going back to their local councils to talk had been resolved.
The last of such meetings held at Aso Rock Villa at the weekend with Oshiomhole saying that negotiation between the two sides attained a lot of progress. “We are happy to say that the government and ASUU have reached some understanding and ASUU is now expected, as a democratic organisation, to call the meeting of its own NEC to consider the possibility of suspending the strike so that negotiation can commence,” Oshiomhole told reporters on Saturday. Expressing optimism over the early resolution of the crisis, Ukachukwu said that whatever had been looked at during the meetings would be properly presented to the NEC.
He said: “NEC will consider the presentations and we do hope they will take informed decision. It is possible to summon NEC meeting within the next three days, he was quoted to have said last Thursday. Also, expressing optimism over the Oshiomhole-led team, Professor Yomi Akinyeye, ASUU Liaison Officer, yesterday described it as a welcome development as it would lead to the resolution of the crisis.
On when the union will call off the strike, Akinyeye said “it all depends on the NEC’s meeting, billed to take place anytime from now.”
