Nairaland General › Mother Of 7 Arrested For Drug Trafficking by raphy(op): 9:19pm On Mar 28, 2010
Mother of 7 arrested for drug trafficking

National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), operatives attached to the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos have arrested 52 years old woman, for alleged trafficking 1.166 kilogrammes of heroin.

The suspect, Alhaja Abduquadri Olufunke, was nabbed after the scanning machine revealed that she was positive for drug ingestion. She was detected during the screening of passengers on Delta Airline to Atlanta, United States.
She allegedly ingested 61 wraps of brownish powdery substance which tested positive for heroin, weighing 958 grammes. She also inserted a big parcel of same substance weighing 208 grammes in her private part.

Reacting to the arrest, the Chairman/Chief Executive of NDLEA, Ahmadu Giade, urged the public to avoid the temptation of get-rich-quick syndrome, adding that good name is better than ill-gotten wealth. ‘‘It must take character deficiency for a mother of her age to condescend into such level of depravity. People should learn to build and protect their good names which is much better than illegitimate wealth,” Giade said.
The mother of seven, whose final destination was Chicago, claimed she sells textile materials, but was forced into drugs trafficking by circumstances. The suspect claimed to have been given the drug at Seme border, by a lady, who promised to help her out of her financial predicament, unknown to her that she was an agent of drug barons.

Her words: “I was involved in drug trafficking because of my children. My expectation was to rent a shop for my business and pay my children’s school fees. It is a painful experience for me, particularly, the ingestion of the drugs and the parcel prepared for me to insert in my private part. I would have changed my mind at that point. I used water to swallow the drug but, it just could not go down my throat, so they gave me soft drink.”

“It was a bitter experience. Though, I was given 1,200 dollars, part payment, with a promise that when I got to Chicago, I would be handsomely rewarded. Still, I was uncomfortable. I was brainwashed by a woman like me, though, it was not entirely her fault, I feel very bad. I do not know how to face my children,” she lamented. Alhaja Adelade, who hails from Isan-Ekiti, Ekiti State, was born and brought up in Lagos.

Meanwhile, the NDLEA Airport Commander, Alhaji Hamza Umar, has warned drug traffickers not to hide under any guise to smuggle drugs, as the agency will stop them. ‘‘We do not look at a passenger’s age or status. Our job is simply to arrest them as they come and that is our contribution towards a crime-free society,’’ Hamza stated.

According to the NDLEA spokesman, Mr. Mitchell Ofoyeju, the suspect would be charged to court soon.

Romance › Why Women Love Gay Men by raphy(op): 9:12pm On Feb 01, 2010
wazup ppl!
In recent years, movies and television shows geared toward women have idealized the gay male friend. Shows like Sex and the City, for example, seem to suggest that no woman’s circle of friends is complete without at least one good gay friend. Maybe we’re reading a bit too much into this, but we’re pretty sure this fictional phenomenon has at least some roots in reality. In our experience, women love gay men.


However, according to the big and small screens, it seems there’s a particular kind of gay man with which most women are enamored by: They love the stylish, sarcastic and supportive guy; the gay man who looks good, listens to her and is loyal to a fault. Upon examination, it’s not hard to figure out why women love gay men who fit this criteria.

So, it stands to reason that by examining what women love about gay men, we heterosexual guys might be able to learn a few things.
Men’s clothes
Many, if not most, gay men have a great sense of fashion and style. For whatever reason, it seems gay men know how to dress, and they often put us heterosexual guys to shame with their impeccable taste in clothes and high fashion IQ. This is just one of the many reasons why women love gay men.

So, how can you tell if you have style or not? Ask yourself this: Do you ever walk into a crowded room and feel like the best-dressed guy there? If your answer is “no, never” you may need to rethink your wardrobe. In fact, if women rarely compliment you on your appearance -- say, less than once or twice a week -- it’s probably time to restock your closet.

Physical fitnessYes, it’s a bit of a stereotype, but you’ll probably concede that many of the gay men you know are serious about physical fitness, and that’s another reason why women love gay men. Of course, heterosexual women are big fans of the carefully sculpted male form. Gay or straight, women enjoy being in the presence of a well-built man.

However, it’s also the shared interest in working out and living a healthy lifestyle that women appreciate about their gay friends. In many instances, gay men simply take better care of themselves than we do, and our female companions would appreciate it if we followed suit. So take a cue from your athletically inclined gay friends, and hit the gym with your significant other, or join her when she goes for a run.
Sensitivity
A 2008 study published by the National Academy of Sciences revealed that gay men and straight women have similarly shaped brains: Both are symmetrical, whereas the straight male brain is asymmetrical; it is slightly larger on the right side (the same shape as the gay female brain). So, it’s possible that gay men think and see the world in a way that women can relate to; that might be another reason why women love gay men.

The bottom line is that your girlfriend’s friends communicate with her, and her gay male friend is no exception. His willingness to sympathize and try to understand her is surely one of the reasons your girlfriend loves her gay friend. And it wouldn’t kill you to take a cue from that guy and think about her feelings a bit more often. Just because our brains are shaped differently doesn’t mean we can’t be a little more sensitive.

Faithfulness
Why do women love gay men? Because women don’t have to worry about their gay male friends leaving them for other women. Surely one of the things that women get out of a friendship with a gay man is male companionship without the fear of betrayal or abandonment.

So what can you do to demonstrate your faithfulness to a woman (besides, you know, not cheating on her)? Try keeping your wandering eye in check. For instance, when you’re out with your girlfriend and a pair of insanely hot twins walks by, don’t let your head spin around like a top.

Fun
We’re generalizing again here, but let it be said: Gay guys are just a good time. They’re funny, refreshingly frank about sex and they can dance. We recognize there must be some dull, socially awkward gay guys out there, but most of the gay guys we know are fun to hang out with, and that’s another reason why women love gay men.

The lesson for straight guys: Try to be less inhibited. Talk louder. Be bolder. Maybe even strut your stuff on the dance floor every now and then.

what do you all think straight guys.

Family › Be A Better Man In 2010 by raphy(op): 9:49pm On Dec 28, 2009
It’s isn’t just the end of a year; it’s the end of a decade. And a pretty significant decade at that. Ten years ago, it was New Year’s Eve 2000! You were dancing to Prince and laughing off the threat of Y2K (even if you were secretly a little apprehensive about it) and the party rocked all night long. Then you woke up into a hangover and a Bloody Mary and a fresh new year. Then that year flew by, and nine more years after it, and now here we are: New Year’s Eve 2010.

We live in a culture that prizes youth, and because of this, we’re conditioned for nostalgia. We see the time that’s behind us as time lost, full of opportunities that are now lost too. And at the end of a decade, we feel it tenfold. Well, at AM we say: Enough! Enough sniffling over what could have been. It’s time for a mind-shift. And here’s how we’re going to initiate it: take the closest piece of paper and on it write down three things that you’ve accomplished since that New Year's Eve party 10 years ago. Maybe you got a promotion that you fought for and deserved. Maybe you mustered up the balls to approach the woman who is now your girlfriend. Whatever their scale or significance, we just want you to write down three things that you did to make your life better.

You’ve accomplished a lot more than these three things in the past 10 years. If we gave you the time to do so, you could expand that list to 30 accomplishments. But we’re done dwelling on the past. We’re in the middle of a mind-shift! So now that you’ve recalled your abilities to actualize the goals that you set out, in order to be the executor of your own self-improvement, it’s time to think about how you’re going apply those powers in the year ahead. Flip that piece of paper over, and write down the one change you want to see in your life in 2010. The change that’s going to make you a Better Man.

Romance › Things That Scare Her In Bed by raphy(op): 8:35pm On Dec 22, 2009
Sex can be an intimidating experience for a variety of reasons, but there are some things that can happen in bed that are likely to truly scare your partner. In order to avoid freaking her out, keep a few guidelines in mind when it comes to weird, unexpected or downright frightening acts like these.

New territory
The first thing that could scare a woman in bed is asking her to do something that she’s never done before. Depending on how confident she is, a request for something she has no previous experience with may have her shaking in her boots (or stilettos, as the case may be). Before you spring a new idea on her, get a feel for her knowledge and comfort level on the subject. A simple: “Have you tried (insert intimidating sexual act here) before?” can go a long way to not scaring her before you get started.

Choking her
Wrapping your hands around her neck and giving it a little squeeze might be perfectly OK if she's been warned ahead of time that it’s something that turns you on, or certainly if she is the one that requested it. However, choking her out of the blue during sex is a surefire way to scare her in bed. Many people genuinely enjoy rough sex, violent role-playing and even some real pain, but if you haven’t discussed your predilections with your sexual partner well in advance of getting into bed with her, you must not spring something like this on her while getting it on.

Unexpected anal play
Some women are turned on by the idea of anal stimulation, while others find it disgusting. Before you know which kind of woman the one you’re in bed with is, do not go anywhere near her ass. Unexpected anal penetration is pretty much guaranteed to scare her in bed. Even getting too close to the general area with your fingers, your tongue or a toy can be enough to freak out some women. Get an idea of her views on the act before you try anything anal.

There are few more things that scare her in bed that you should definitely not try
Extreme sex props
Battery-powered intimacy gadgets and handcuffs may be a normal part of your sex life, but if you’re with a new partner who hasn’t yet checked out your toy box, don’t whip these things out while you’re in bed with her. Most women would be able to handle a simple vibrator or maybe a blindfold, but if your idea of fun props includes shackles, ropes, whips, and textured butt plugs, you may want to ease her into the idea before you bring out all your toys. If you’re up to the level of prostate milking sticks, Electotorture or speculums, keep this stuff well hidden until you know for sure that she’s cool with your fetishes.

Psycho dirty talk
Most of us can appreciate a little dirty talk in the bedroom. In the heat of the moment, all kinds of things can come out of your mouth if you’re not careful. The downside of this is that actions aren’t the only things that can scare her in bed; your words can do the job just as well. Maybe you started off by whispering a fantasy in her ear, but once your voice takes on a serial killer-like intensity and you start getting into too much psycho detail, your little story takes a dark turn and she makes up some excuse about having to wash her hair or get up early in the morning. Keep these demented little tales to yourself if you want to avoid scaring her in bed.

scary sex
Naturally, what scares one woman in bed might make another woman all hot and bothered, so you never can tell how she’s going to react to a certain kink, fetish or unusual practice -- until you ask her, of course. The kinds of women who are into these things probably aren’t going to shy away from talking about them. On the other hand, if you bring it up and she bolts, it’s better that you find out early on that you’re sexually incompatible.

Health › The Buzz On Shaving Your Head by raphy(op): 8:21pm On Dec 07, 2009
The argument for shaving your head

Nowadays, more and more men are shaving their heads whether their hairlines are receding or not. Why? Well for starters, men opt for the "shaved style" because it looks sharp and intimidating, plus it's practical, easy to maintain, and let's be honest, it knocks another step off one's daily grooming routine.

In addition, shaving it all off yourself is far less expensive than having to pay for a conventional haircut every few weeks. Not to mention, you'll save on the cost of shampoo and conditioner.
Why bald men shave their heads

The "bare" look is common among A-list celebrities like Vin Diesel, Bruce Willis, Michael Jordan, and Andre Agassi, just to name a few. It's trendy, growing in popularity and becoming widely accepted as the norm, even at the office.

Let's face it: One of the main reasons the shaved look is so widely accepted is because it's a logical step for balding men to take. Most men have begun to accept themselves as they are -- they're confident and don't need to hide under the dreaded comb-over anymore. And it doesn't hurt that a shaved head allows them to fully showcase their rugged facial features.
How to shave your head

In order to ensure a smooth shave and prevent "self-inflicted wounds," keep your scalp muscles relaxed and your skin well-moisturized throughout the shaving process.

Your best bet is to shave in the shower because the feeling of water massaging your head will help relax your scalp muscles, open your pores and follicles, and soften the hair for a smooth shearing by the razor blade.
What you'll need to shave your head

Before you hop into the shower, make sure you have a high-quality razor, preferably the HeadBlade, made specifically for head shaving. The HeadBlade's patented suspension takes away the guesswork, where you don't have to worry about the angle or the pressure applied. You just have to take long, smooth strokes and glide it along your scalp. You can use this curved razor with Gillette Atra Plus and Schick Ultrex blades.
