Sultan Kosen, a 30-year-old Turkish farmer, who is the tallest man is the world, was engaged a couple of days ago. The joyful wedding of the happy couple came shortly after the engagement in the Turkish city of Mardin.

There is a big difference between a woman and a girl. These differences are not just about the age, but about character, strength and morals. A real man deserves a real woman who he can build his life with.



So if you have a woman in your life and you want to know if you can have a real future with her, check out for these signs:

1. A girl throws tantrums. When displeased, upset or angry, she reacts just as she did as a child when she didn't get her way with her parents. This often consists of screaming, pouting, giving the silent treatment, being passive aggressive and/or punishing. A woman still feels the emotions of being upset/displeased, but has cultivated the skill of responding versus reacting. She comes to the table as an adult, and communicates clearly what is bothering her.

2. A girl perceives herself as a princess and believes people should treat her like so. She is entitled and feels that she is owed and therefore expects more than she appreciates. A woman, has standards (what she holds herself to) not expectations (what she projects on to others).

3. A girl uses her physical beauty as her currency and basis of value. A girl may be so used to feeling validated through her looks and sexuality, that she uses this as her primary tool to get what she wants in life. A woman, knows her worth is beyond her physicality. A woman bases her value on her intelligence, her strength, her integrity, her values, her contributions, her humanity.

4. A girl banks on a man to be her financial strategy. A woman plans to be financially independent - she banks on… herself. And if she so happens to enter a relationship dynamic where it makes sense for her partner to be the primary breadwinner, it's considered a bonus, not the expected life line.

5. A girl sees the world from a place of lack and scarcity. She competes and will even tear down another in order to secure resources or a mate. A woman helps other women. She knows that there's plenty enough to go around and takes the high road of integrity to get what she wants.

6. A girl cannot be bothered with anything domestic and is proud of the fact that she cannot cook or clean. A woman understands that being domestic is not a duty, but understands that it is one way of taking care of herself and others. She also understands that in the event she wants to create a family, having a person in the household who can contribute domestically is important.

7. A girl wants attention, a woman wants respect. A girl wants to be adored by many. A woman wants to be adored by one.

8. A girl does not respect her body. She has not yet understood that her body and heart are sacred, and that it's important to be mindful of how she treats it and who she shares it with.

"A girl cherishes handbags, diamonds and her shoe collection as her prize possessions. A woman cherishes her health, her sense of self, and her talents as her greatest assets." - N. Mah

9. A woman takes the time to reflect on the type of human she wants to be, the example she wants to leave and the vision for her life. She has put thought into her values and what she stands for. A girl has not established her moral compass or values and consequently, is often inconsistent.

"After spending time with a girl, you feel exhausted because she takes more than she gives. After spending time with a woman, you feel invigorated, because she empowers you with possibility, and a passion for life." - N. Mah

10. A girl has a checklist that prioritizes superficial qualities above anything else. Here is an example of how this checklist may look: Hot, popular, wears skinny jeans, over six feet tall, rich.. This is the checklist of what a woman may look for: High integrity, intelligent, kind, good communicator, emotionally available…

Now, a lot of these differences require taking the time to know someone to figure out if the apple of your eye is indeed a mature woman, or someone with an immature mindset. However, one of the quickest filters that you can notice from the beginning is this:

11. A girl plays games. A woman doesn't.

Do you agree with the list above?

Itz lyk Funmi ma gbo lola niyen σ,,
Yepaaaaaaaa lols....

From the second you get turned on to that awesome after-sex glow, your body is doing some amazing things to make sure you experience major pleasure. But we're willing to bet you're not aware of any of this as it's happening.

Well, prepare to have your mind blown by the impressive feats that happen while you're busy getting busy.

You find everything sexy: Sure, you know the basic things that get you raring to go (firemen, Ryan Gosling, any scene from Magic Mike...), but you might be turned on by a lot more than you think. Researchers from Queens University in Kingston, Ontario found that even though straight women reported only feeling aroused by men, their measures of physiological arousal (like vaginal blood flow) told a different story. Most women in the study were aroused by every sexual stimuli they saw (nude male and female bodies, heterosexual and homosexual sex, even animal sex), while men's arousal was much more predictable. The bottom line: Women have the ability to get turned on by a much broader range of situations. Lucky you!

You're not easily grossed out: There's a reason that you're less fazed by something like sweat or weird smells when you're having sex. When you're aroused, you're less likely to view gross things as being disgusting, according to a study published in the online journal PLOS One. So that explains why you're willing to put up with just-woke-up breath for the sake of morning sex.

Your brain notices every touch: There's way more going on up there than you might think. Researchers at Rutgers University used fMRI scanners to see exactly what happens in your brain when you're aroused. They found that different brain regions were activated in response to stimulation of the vagina, cervix, clitoris, and nipples. And because your mind is pretty crucial for arousal, stimulating several of these areas at once can lead to an even more explosive finish.

You get bigger where it counts: When you're aroused, your vagina literally expands to make room for your guy. The length of your vagina starts out around 3 inches which is why it might seem pretty shallow when you're just putting in a tampon but as you get aroused, your uterus is pulled up, lengthening the vaginal wall to around 5 inches or so, says Debby Herbenick, PhD, author of Because It Feels Good. And if you're with a particularly well-endowed guy, your uterus may get pushed back a bit farther, allowing for even more room.

You feel less pain: There's a reason that things like nibbling or hair pulling don't hurt as much while you're getting it on. Your pain threshold can increase significantly during arousal, according to a study published in the Journal of Sex Research. While this might make penetration more comfortable, Herbenick warns that there could be a downside: "Some people say that they've hurt themselves and didn't realize it until after sex."

Your girls go through changes: The next time you're getting busy, take a second to check out your chest. As a result of increased blood flow to the area, you'll probably notice that your nipples are erect and a little darker in color than usual. Plus, previous research shows that some women's breasts swell during arousal and can actually increase in size.

Your body starts blushing: Studies show that your facial and body temperature increases during sexual arousal, which explains why your face and chest might get a little red when you're having sex. Plus the increased blood flow and heart rate causes a "sex flush" in some people, which appears as a red or pinkish rash on your chest that goes away after arousal subsides.

Your mind chills out: If it seems like your brain turns to mush during an orgasm, you're kind of right. The amygdala, the part of the brain involved in fear and anxiety, essentially shuts down when women have an orgasm, according to a study from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. Even the body movements you make during orgasm are totally unconscious, according to brain scans.

Your muscles have a mind of their own: During orgasm, your body experiences a period of myotonia or muscle spasms due to the activation of the vaginal muscles, according to studies by pioneering sex researchers William Masters and Virginia Johnson. This causes the muscles in your legs, arm, neck, abdomen, and face to tense up. At the same time, involuntary vaginal contractions happen at regular intervals. Researchers still aren't sure why these spasms occur and why some women don't experience them at all.

Your bladder goes on hold: When you orgasm, your body releases an antidiuretic hormone, which is why you may not be able to pee right after sex, says Herbenick. Just don't put off hitting the bathroom too long, experts advise going after sex to help prevent UTIs.

Frustrated by over four months of strike that has kept their future in the balance leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS zone 'B' has given the members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) seven days to call off and return to the class room.

The Union warned that at the expiration of the seven days ultimatum they would be left with no other option than to confront the striking lecturers.

Speaking with journalists in Umuahia, the NANS zone B financial secretary and the leader in Abia state, Comrade Eluwah Miracle, said that the students are determined to take their destinies in their own hands by invoking the last "C" in NANS system of settling issues which is confrontation

Eluwah accused the members of ASUU of being selfish in their demands from the federal government and politically motivated adding that student would no longer watch ASUU destroy education in the country and jeopardize the future of millions Nigerian youths.

He said, "NANS Abia state chapter has condemned in strong terms the on-going nation-wide strike embarked upon by ASUU, which timing is not only wrong, but also detrimental to the security and of the country.

Eluwah said that ASUU is claiming that their demands are genuine, "But their approach and timing is very wrong, because the world is now seeing it as being politically motivated and if they say it is not, they should go back to the classroom, while negotiation continues with the federal government".

He maintained that the federal government has done well by offering ASUU the sum of N600 billion in addition to the N100 billion already made available this year for the funding of the universities, "which ASUU has rejected under the fragile nature of the country's economy".

On the issue that the funds from federal government has not been released, Eluwah said, "ASUU is claiming that the funds have not been released, why should the money be released when they have not accepted the offer by the federal government and until they accept the money cannot be released simple".

He said that there are three Cs in the student Aluta struggle which include Consultation, Consideration and finally Confrontation, adding that they have made use of the first two Cs and will not hesitate to use the last one which is confrontation.

http://m.naij.com/news/50943.html

Since July 2, 2013, lecturers in all but one public university in the country have been on strike. This strike has been necessitated, nurtured and sustained by the Federal Government's failure to implement fully all components of the ASUU/Federal Government agreement of 2009.

Ever since the strike commenced, there have been series of meetings held between ASUU and the Federal Government that have yielded no tangible results. The result is that the strike has been allowed to escalate resulting in loss of several weeks that would have been used for serious and rigorous academic studies while thousands of students have been idling away at home. Some have already taken to various nefarious engagements.

As a result of the strike, the Federal Government has taken some measures to assuage the union to call off the strike which has not been convincing to ASUU. The measures so far taken by government need to be critically examined.

The N100bn released by government for infrastructural development in all public universities is grossly inadequate to meet the appalling and compelling infrastructural needs of these institutions that have deliberately been starved of necessary funds over the years. Again, the inflation in the country will surely make a mess of whatever sum each university will receive from this government "largesse". In any case, it has been authoritatively said that no university has received a dime of the sum accruable to them from the money so far after over five weeks ago. And so the unpleasant drama continues.

Now let us also discuss the N30bn released for the payment of earned allowances to lecturers. The Finance Minister, Mrs. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, affirmed that it was all that the Federal Government could muster and that ASUU should either take it or leave it. Very interesting indeed! Government's offer is quite commendable but did ASUU unilaterally concoct the figure of N92bn and foist it on the government to pay its members? The answer is an emphatic no.

ASUU reached and signed an agreement with the Federal Government in 2009 and payment of earned allowances was a major part of that agreement. Government in its wisdom refused to implement that agreement. In 2012, ASUU signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Federal Government as a road map to implementing the 2009 Agreement. Despite all these patriotic and laudable efforts by ASUU, government treated the issue of implementation of the agreement with monumental disdain and orchestrated levity. The arrears that accrued from the non-payment of the earned allowances since 2009 are what account for the N92bn. In any case, ASUU has since explained that the afore-mentioned sum is for the payment of the earned allowances to all university workers and not just the lecturers alone.

The offer of N30bn by government is as unilateral as it is despotic in outlook. In the course of this strike, government's negotiating team had offered to pay 10 per cent for the earned allowances out of the 15 per cent already agreed by the Implementation Monitoring Committee composed of both government and ASUU representatives while ASUU insisted on the 15 per cent agreed with the government ab initio. The offer of N30bn, which is less than five per cent of the agreed sum, smacks of insincerity.

The bogus claim that the sum is to help the various University Governing Councils pay the earned allowances is both hypocritical and deceitful. Where and how on earth can these councils raise the sum of N62bn differentials in order to pay the earned allowances in the various universities? This is an indirect way of telling the lecturers to stay at home in perpetuity. Just recently, the Federal Government added another N10bn to the earned allowances fund bringing the total to N40bn. ASUU has however insisted that the sum does not address the issue of the payment of the earned allowances as agreed by both parties.

Those who do not understand ASUU's stance on this strike have called the union a selfish organisation. We do not intend to join issues with such people since ignorance according to Plato the great philosopher is a vice. But even if that is the case, do such people also forget that ASUU is a trade union which has the primary mandate to fight for the welfare of its members? If fighting for the welfare of its members amounts to the union being selfish, so be it. Again, those who accuse ASUU of selfishness should ask the political class how much they are paid. While a university professor with all his unassailable contributions to nation building receives a paltry N6m per annum as his entire emolument, a minister gets a whopping sum of N32m per annum. The National Assembly members, on their own, take home outrageous sums as wages per annum and the nation continues to wobble under such a vast and tremendous illegality.

Dragging the current strike to a religious angle as some government officials have tried to do is most unfortunate and smacks of critical irrationality. Yes, that the current President of ASUU, Nasir Fagge Isa, is a Muslim. But what has he done to warrant being called a religious bigot or seeing the current strike as having a religious coloration? This is only a dirty ploy by government and its agents to discredit the union which will surely fail.

ASUU in the past has also been on strike during the tenure of Christian presidents. It is pertinent to condemn in its entirety the statement credited to the Minister of Information Labaran Maku, that the country will collapse if government were to meet ASUU's demands. May we ask Maku some salient questions. Did the nation collapse when the nation's billions of dollars were squandered on President Olusegun Obasanjo's ill-fated and disastrous power projects which brought us more darkness than light? Did the country collapse when this present administration pumped in over N3tn to stabilise some ailing banks as a result of the financial recklessness of some prominent and highly connected citizens of this country who borrowed monies excessively from those banks and refused to pay back? Again, we may wish to ask whether the nation crumbled when this present government pumped in over N500bn to revamp the aviation sector? What about the billions of naira this government doled out to Nollywood as if government has become Father Christmas?

The pretentious and deceitful intervention of Governor Gabriel Suswam and the so-called NEEDS Assessment and Implementation Committee is disappointing and unfortunate. Again the governor's assertion that the strike has become political is false, dishonest and calculated to deceive the general public and also divide the union. It is not true and can never be. Suswam is just being economical with the truth. The current strike and even previous ones never had any political undertone. If the President was looking for a governor to be appointed to such a very sensitive position, certainly Suswam is not among the best performing governors in the country to warrant his being given such an appointment.

Finally, we appeal to the Federal Government to toe the part of honour by implementing fully its 2009 agreement with ASUU and save the nation's public universities from going into extinction. Appealing to the lecturers to call off the strike in the interest of the students as they have regularly done since the strike began is hugely hypocritical as the nation's universities need highly motivated intellectuals in order to become true centers of academic excellence.

Instead, the government should save these helpless and deeply traumatised students the misfortune of having a truncated future by ensuring industrial peace on our universities. To do otherwise will amount to pursuing shadow and not the real substance. It must be stressed that those in government who state that Nigerian graduates are unemployable without making critical efforts to fund our universities adequately so as to produce employable graduates are simply unpatriotic and should bury their heads in shame.

Leave dis people alone naa,,
If dem send you any request,,make una no accept..

Lobatan σ..

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, Thursday declared that the Parliament was ready to amend any portion of the nation's law to grant any request of appropriations from the Executive Arm of Government to accommodate the demands and end the lingering strike of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

This followed the presentation of the investigative report presented by the House Committee on Education on the floor of the House.

Tambuwal advised all the concerned parties in the strike to reconsider their positions in the interest of the students and the future of education in the country.

The Speaker said that the House would not hesitate to honour any requests from the Executive Arm of government to help meet the demands of the ASUU where necessary.

His Words: "Once again, we call on ASUU and the Federal Government, in this case the Executive Arm of government to please, quickly bring the matter an end. And if there is any need for further appropriations to be made or any law to be amended to meet any of these conditions, the House of Representatives is faithfully ready to expeditious address such requests. Please, we need our students back to their respective schools. I so plead."

Na Arsenal thread?

Dis 1 wey ï dey c Arsenal players Fø̲̣̣я̅ here,,hope Ozil п̥̥̲̣̣̣' Wenger himself go soon comment....

On the first day of July this year, the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, began an indefinite strike that has lasted till date and may run deep into the future.

According to the union, the strike followed government's inability to keep to an October 2009 agreement reached by both parties.

The agreement was reached after two years of negotiation between the lecturers and a government team appointed by the then Education Minister, Obiageli Ezekwesili.

The Government team was led by the then Pro-chancellor, University of Ibadan, Gamaliel Onosode while ASUU's team was led by its then president, Abdullahi Sule-Kano.

The agreement reached at the negotiations included conditions of service for university lecturers, funding of universities, university autonomy and academic freedom, and issues that required legislation to implement.

Details of that agreement were held as confidential by both ASUU and the government, leaving the public to feed on crumbs of information thrown out at negotiation meetings between the two parties.

Premium Times has now obtained a copy of the agreement and is now making it available for public viewing.

(Download a copy here).

The agreement

The agreement included details such as the breakdown of lecturers' salary structure, staff loans, pension, overtime, and moderation of examinations.

Part of the agreement dwelt on funding of universities where both parties agreed that each federal university should get at least N1.5 trillion between 2009 and 2011 while state universities, within the same period, should receive N3.6 million per student.

The agreement also had parts that asked the re-negotiation committee to ensure that at least 26 percent of Nigeria's annual budget was allocated to education, and half of that allocation to universities.

The agreement also asked that the 2004 Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, Act, and the National University Commission Act 2004, be amended.

Text of the suggested amendment bills - including suggestion for amendment of the Education (National Minimum Standards and Establishment of Institutions) Act 2004 - were provided in the agreements.

The agreement was signed by Bolanle Babalakin, the then chairman of Committee of Pro-Chancellors of Federal Universities; Gamaliel Onosode, chairman of the re-negotiation committee; and Ukachukwu Awuzei, the then president of ASUU.

The agreement demanded a heavy financial commitment from the government and was an adaptation of an earlier agreement reached in 2001.

It is unclear how much of the agreement have been implemented by the government. However, the secretary to the federation, Pius Anyim, after one of the recent failed negotiations, said that most of the issues contained in the 2009 agreement, had been fully met except for the earned allowances estimated at N92 billion.

"Some of the issues which bothered on amendment of pensionable retirement age of academics in the professorial cadre, consolidated peculiar allowances (CONPUAA)- exclusively for university teaching staff, National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), setting up of budget monitoring committee in all public universities have been fully implemented," he disclosed.

ASUU Chairman, Nasir Fagge,could not be reached to confirm how much of the agreement have been implemented.
