Actress Nadia Buari has dispelled assertions that she is arrogant. Speaking on Starr FM’s Starr Chat on Wednesday, the mother of twins said she is naturally shy and that has been misconstrued by some people as arrogance. “I think I am a weirdo, naturally sometimes I can be a nerd… I’m painfully shy and really nervous. A lot of people don’t believe that. They are like, ‘You are an actress and you are not supposed to be shy’ but I am extremely shy,” she said. Adding, “I can’t start explaining to people that this is exactly how I am so you just take it as it is. It makes me feel bad because I feel like CONTINUE READING@ - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/know-me-before-you-make-any-judgement.html#sthash.Cj3sx3J0.dpuf

Actress, singer, and philanthropist, Juliet Ibrahim has indicated that Ghanaians only believe she’s on screen because of her skin color but not because she’s a talented actress. According to the actress in an interview with Kofi Laing on Joy FM’s Late Night Express show as reported by PeaceFmOnline, she didn’t face a lot of challenges coming into the movie industry but her challenge has always been how to disabuse people’s minds that she’s only on screen because she’s fair. She said such comments hurt her a lot and she prays people will begin to judge her based on her performance in movies rather than her color. “I didn’t face a lot of CONTINUE READIND at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/ghanaians-believe-im-terrible-actress.html#sthash.1QnznoI1.dpuf

GAME OF THRONE White Walkers make the rudest house guests, don’t they? At least knock before you burst through the door. But, oh, the door — and “The Door,” the fifth episode of Game of Thrones season 6. Even before Hodor perished doing what he had been destined to do via closed time-slash-vision loop, the players this season moved in new directions. There’s the kingsmoot in Pyke, which officially seated Euron Greyjoy on the Salt Throne, forcing Yara and Theon to flee their throne and giving Daenerys a good chance of finally winning a whole fleet of new ships courtesy of the Ironborn. And then there’s Arya’s predicament: She’s still clearly Arya underneath the bruises and scars, but while events in Westeros are taking shape — the North will fight over Winterfell, continue reading at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/game-of-thrones-winter-has-arrived-but.html#sthash.ltyXAanU.dpuf checkout all real life photos of game of thrones here>>http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/game-of-thrones-cast-looks-in-real-life_12.html

A few weeks ago, we were introduced to the underboob bra. Most of us were confused, and others were intrigued. Lingerie had just taken a whole new (racy) turn. But let's be real — sure, the underboob is risqué, but it's not like we see the look flaunted that heavily on red carpets by celebrities. It's all about the side boob (we mean, did you see Bella Hadid walk the 2016 Cannes red carpet?!) And for that, British fashion haven ASOS have gone ahead and designed the side boob bra.Bye, underboob. Your moment is over. The 'Giant Fishnet Side Boob Bralette' is here and selling for $40.48 CDN. Coming in sizes XS to L, the bralette is offered in three colours and can also be matched with a 'Giant Fishnet High Leg Thong.'As Refinery29 points out, if you "need something to wear to your upcoming EDM festival/boudoir photoshoot," then you kind of need this bra.- see how it on nigerian ladies in the link bellow See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/asos-have-designed-bra-to-show-off-your.html#sthash.HNPyNFWj.dpuf

Google’s Android Wear operating system for smartwatches is 2 years old, and it still hasn’t caught on with consumers as well as the Apple Watch has. But the company is hoping to change that with the biggest update to the OS to date: Android Wear 2.0. The new OS offers a number of improvements over its predecessor — including, most significantly, standalone apps that can run without the need to have a paired smartphone. According to Google, standalone apps will let you use apps like Spotify on your smartwatch free of your phone. That means you don’t have to wear one of those chunk arm straps to hold your handset when you go for a run. You can simply stream your favorite tunes from your wrist. But there’s a catch. Your watch still needs to connect to the internet. So if you’re going for a run and want to stream music, your watch will need its own cellular internet connection. Around the house, you can use standalone apps by connecting to your home Wi-Fi or via Bluetooth. Google has also made some significant interface updates for Android Wear 2.0 to make things like notifications easier to read. One particularly interesting improvement is the new QWERTY keyboard Google added to Wear. Before, you could only reply to messages from your wrist using canned or voice responses. But Android Wear 2.0 now lets you type out your replies or write them. Samsung’s Gear S2 smartwatch also offers a keyboard layout that lets you type responses. The Apple Watch, meanwhile, offers canned, voice and emoji responses. Android Wear 2.0 also lets you add small bits of information from third-party apps, including things like your steps, notifications, and calories burned throughout the day. Android Wear already offered a handful of watch faces that offered similar complications, but now you can add them to any watch face you want. The improvements to Android Wear 2.0 certainly sound impressive, but none of them truly make me feel as though I need to go out and buy an Android Wear-powered watch. Still, I’ll reserve my final judgment until I can actually get my hands on an Android Wear 2.0 device. - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/googles-new-smartwatch-improvement-over.html#sthash.jwM3Ij0T.dpuf

Some anxiety can be good. It can alert you to danger--and give you extra oomph to get out of it. It also can motivate you to get things done, like study hard for an exam or deal with problems at the office. The trouble comes when anxiety makes you feel fearful for no apparent reason, throwing a wrench in your life. You might have chest pains or nightmares, or have a hard time leaving the house. These could be signs of an anxiety disorder, and you should see your primary care doctor. - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/is-anxiety-your-friend.html#sthash.aFyPJhW6.dpuf

Gold Digger Being married to such a person will only last as long as you’re able to provide for his or her insatiable needs but if the niceties stop flowing, he or she is gone, leaving you to lick your wounds. Drunkard Many people can contain this for a while but if there is no solution to the problem, the likelihood it will end in divorce is very high. Batterer Any man or woman who abuse their partner is obviously getting them out as quick as possible Drug Addict Drug addiction is a very serious issue and marriages in this kind of situation can only last if both are addicted to drugs but if it’s just one party and the other is clean, the possibility of it ending in divorce is very high. Overly Jealous It is normal for every person to be jealous, from now and then but if you’re the kind of person who is overly jealous to the extent it clouds your judgment and you end up hurting others or fighting every now and then, then you should be prepared to end up alone. - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/marriage-to-these-types-of-people-will.html#sthash.cqgWdfss.dpuf |
In a move that could be the biggest thing to happen to the Facebook news feed since it was introduced, it appears the social network is quietly testing a massive revamp that will add a lot more news to the feed. As seen in screenshots that surfaced on Twitter on Friday morning, Facebook is experimenting with a new layout on mobile that highlights multiple news sections, with topics such as World & U.S., Sports and Food. However, the primary (and presumably default) section is still the classic news feed we're accustomed to seeing. Facebook confirmed to Mashable that it's testing the new, sectioned news feed, in addition to the current format, though it's unclear if the feature will ever get an official launch. While the feature being tested isn't entirely new — we've seen some versions of topic-focused feeds in the past on iOS — the format revealed in the latest Android-based screenshots haven't quite been seen before. "People have told us they’d like options to see more stories on Facebook around specific topics they’re interested in," a Facebook spokesperson said via email. "So we have been testing a few feeds for people to view more and different stories from people and Pages based on topic areas."

Youtube is rolling out a native messaging and sharing feature on Android and iOS in an attempt to further retain visitors to the video hosting site. Different to the existing comments and share settings, the new features are more about sharing videos internally and chatting with a friend or select group of friends rather than the wider YouTube community. A New Shared Tab Will Appear In The Mobile App Containing All Your Video Shares And Conversations. You Can Add Text And Emoji, Just Like Any Other Chat App And You Can Like Comments In The Thread, Add More Friends To The Group And Watch Videos Shared By Your Friends. It’s Essentially About Building A Micro-Community Around Specific Videos With Your Friends Alone. The Challenge To Facebook's video posts Is Pretty Clear, But It’s Continuous, Rather Than Post By Post.

A lot about[b] Game of Thrones [/b]blows my mind: the plot lines, yes, but also the sets, the special effects, the costumes, and the makeup—especially those last two elements of the show, which kicks off its fifth season Sunday night. Turning pale, brunette Emilia Clarke into a sun-kissed, platinum blond Daenerys Targaryen? Making "The Hound" look like a gnarled, scary burn victim? Some of that stuff is straight-up wizardry. So here, we celebrate it by rounding up images of our favorite, current GoTcast members and juxtaposing them with what the actor looks like in real life. (Oh, and then we rank them according to how dramatic the transformation is— because really, how much fun would it be if we didn't?) more photos of game of throne cast.... see full list at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/game-of-thrones-cast-looks-in-real-life_12.html#sthash.k9VeZxQB.dpuf

Travel and see, the popular saying is true after all. In our side of the world, people will kill for prestigious jobs at big firms but around the world people will do anything to make ends meet, some of these jobs may sound crazy but they really work and people make a living out of them. See some of these jobs. 1. Professional friendships There are people, mostly females, who escort lonely men to public places like malls, parties or pretend to be their friends (girlfriend/boyfriend) for a period of time and get paid. Yes, this is a real job and there’s no intimacy involved. 2. Strippers Of course, we all know strippers but what most people around here get wrong is that strippers are not prostitutes, they are professional dancers who dance to please men. There is no touching of private parts involved. Some strippers actually do live decent lives and strip as jobs only. 3. Second Landlords That is not the real name of the job, but there are people who take houses from house owners and renovate them to accomodate more people. They furnish the houses, scrap useless compartments like the garage, make it into livable apartments and rent them out. They manage the houses, deal with tenants and split proceeds with the house owners. 4. Phone-Sex Operators We all know 98% of men masturbate, instead of beating your nuts to pornography, why don’t you call someone on the phone, usually females, who would pretend you are having sex with them. They would moan and speak nasty until you ejaculate, how much you pay depends on how much you spend on the phone. 5. Escorts Escorts are simply advanced or high-class prostitutes, they do not stand by the road side, they are called privately by “big men” to attend private events with them. These escorts are usually very pretty and endowed. There are usually two sides to it, some will only attend high profile events with the big men, they would then opt to pay extra if there will be intimacy involved. continue reading @http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/crazy-jobs-from-around-world-you-wont.html#more

Our hair is meant to be our crowning glory. With a healthy, beautiful-looking mane, we feel confident and full of life. Too much styling using heat and chemicals leads to various hair issues like dryness, frizz, hair fall and less growth of hair. A proper diet, healthy lifestyle and balance in hormones will help determine the good development and health of your hair. Garlic is widely known as a home remedy for reducing the shedding of hair. It boosts the regeneration of new hair and promotes the scalp circulation. 6 ways to use garlic for hair growth • Add it to your shampoo/conditioner The easiest thing that we usually change for hair growth is shampoo. Add garlic to your shampoo then use it on your hair. Honey is a great conditioner, you can add garlic juice to honey. The honey will nourish your hair and the garlic promotes hair growth. To reduce the odor you can add ginger, which also possesses some great minerals to nourish your hair. PS: Don’t use garlic shampoo more than twice a month, overuse will dry your hair and scalp. • With coconut oil The next time you massage your hair with coconut oil, add some garlic juice to it. Simply crush a few garlic cloves and mix with one teaspoon coconut oil, heat the mixture for a few minutes and stir well. Let it cool then apply to your scalp and massage. Repeat 2-3 times a week for best results. - See more steps here: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/6-ways-to-use-garlic-for-hair-growth.html#sthash.BaTgBDBG.dpuf

Husbands, your marriage not only impacts your wife, but your children and future generations. By how you love your wife, you're teaching your sons how to treat women and you're teaching your daughters what they should expect from men. Let's commit to giving our wives and families our very best. This is not a comprehensive list, but here are four things most women desire from their husbands: 1. Open, honest, consistent communication Communication does for a marriage what breathing does for your lungs. Be willing to put your phone down, and engage in meaningful conversation. Never hide anything from her. Build a foundation of trust, honesty and open communication. Every one of your words and every action is either building more of her trust or eroding her trust in you. Remove distractions and make communication a high priority. 2. Physical, emotional and financial protection You should be the one who wipes away your wife's tears, not the one who causes them. Develop the discipline to work hard inside and outside the home to make your wife feel like the safest and most secure woman on earth. Have the courage to fight for your family and the faith to recognize that you need a power greater than your own. 3. Your time — both "quality time" and "quantity time" Time is the "currency" of relationships, so invest as much time as you can into your marriage. You need to make money, but don't use your career as an excuse to be absent. When you're home, be present, not distracted or glued to a screen. Work hard, but also remember that your family can do with less of almost anything if it means having more of you. 4. Continuous pursuit For most of us, we gave our wives the best we had in the very beginning, but just like a cable TV company that offers their best package, pricing and service at the beginning changes after the "promotional period" expires. Many of us have stopped giving our wives the best of ourselves. We've allowed romance to fade. Our wives need and deserve our continued adoration, thoughtfulness and love. Give her your very best each and every day,according to brides. - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/4-things-every-wife-deserves-from-her.html#sthash.2X3AY8Jb.dpuf

Zimbabwe used to have a Z$100,000,000,000,000 note - one trillion Zimbabwean dollars. The note, along with previous hyper-inflated denominations including Z$10,000,000,000,000 (ten trillion) and Z$1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion), could be exchanged for U.S. dollars until the end of April 2016, but it was worth only about $0.40. It is fetching significant higher prices as a novelty item on websites such as eBay. When inflation hit 230,000,000 percent in 2009 , the country's reserve bank -- infamous for its inability to contain sky-high hyperinflation -- declared the U.S. dollar as its official currency. From excessively high inflation to -2.3% deflation, Mangudya remembers the tough years vividly. "It was so traumatizing," he admitted. "We didn't have the tools to fight the monster that the economy was facing at the time." The country had to keep printing money. Prices would change by the minute, causing stress revolving around the fluctuations, one of the devastating effects of hyperinflation. "It was terrible. You'd have to pay for your coffee before you drank it because if you waited the cost would rise within minutes," said businessman Shingi Minyeza, chairman of Vinal Investments. - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/zimbabwe-trillion-dollar-noteworth-only.html

The rest of the world has long believed that Africa can’t produce its own scientific inventions. This myth can be traced back to the time of slavery and colonialism – systems that led even Africans themselves to think that nothing good could come from the continent. The myth is cemented by history books. These are replete with stories of scientific innovators from the developed world. I am not suggesting that the role these people played should be dismissed altogether. They contributed enormously to the modern world. There must, however, also be room to celebrate African innovators who have not yet been recognised for their contributions to science, medicine, technology and food security. These would include the likes of biomedical engineer Selig Percy Amoils, electrochemist Rachid Yazami, nuclear scientist Sameera Moussa, palaeontologist Berhane Asfaw, surgical pioneer Haile Debasand plant geneticist Gebisa Ejeta. There are plenty of innovators on the continent today who are doing remarkable work. Zack Salawe Mwale is making it easier for people to cook one of Malawi’s staple foods. Nigeria’s Kunlé Adeyemi built a floating school to deal with his neighbourhood’s flooding issues. Gloria Asare Adu is pioneering the use of bamboo in Ghana. Thérèse Izaycreated a humanoid traffic robot to make the Congo’s roads safer. Jamila Abass is using cellular technology to empower small-scale farmers in Kenya. But a list of names alone will not bust this myth. Building more young scientists Africa needs to start demonstrating to the world that it is capable of producing its own innovators. It can do this in two ways: by investing in the continent’s youth and creating opportunities for the new generation of African inventors and innovators to take up their place on the global stage. Africa is home to the world’s largest population of 15- to 24-year-olds. This is set to double by 2045. In response to this, African governments have recognised that in order to build a sustainable future, they must equip their populations with the skills that are needed to build the continent from within rather than relying on technologies and ideas from elsewhere. There is some work being done in this regard already. For instance, in 2005 the African Youth Forum for Science and Technology programme was launched to provide young African people with a platform on which they can actively play a role in policy and decision-making processes. Another initiative in this vein is the South African Agency for Science and Technology Advancement. It gives young graduates the chance to get involved in advancing science and technology. Far more of these initiatives are needed to motivate young people in Africa to take science and technology’s potential seriously. Only then will the continent start to recognise its own potential in these fields. Universities lag behind Although most African governments have come to recognise that the only way forward is through homegrown science and technology, many universities aren’t keeping pace. Research suggests that more and more African graduates want to work for themselves and are committed to changing their societies. This also suggests that many are innovators at heart. Neither their schools nor their universities appear to be equipping them for life as inventors or self-starters. These concerns have been raised by both scholars and educators, among them Bame Nsamenang and Therese Tchombe who argue that the current African education system does not seem to reflect the realities on the ground. The system needs to be altered so that it is in tune with these realities – and so that it teaches children just how much people in Africa are able to do to address their own continent’s problems. It is also important that schools and universities in Africa not only highlight and idealise theories and thinkers from elsewhere in the world. This will help their graduates see what is possible and stop thinking of their continent as a place without innovators. Some institutions are setting the pace here. South Africa’s University of the Western Cape is offering a flagship programme on Critical Thought in African Humanities through its Centre for Humanities Research. The Pan-African University, which is being established by the African Union Commission, is another example. It aims to prioritise science, technology and innovative research that’s uniquely African, and to highlight the kind of work that’s coming out of the continent. Such work is an important start towards Africa recognising its own potential and hailing its own homegrown innovators. There need to be far more of these sorts of initiatives – because as long as the continent fails to recognise that the myth of itself as not innovative is just that, a myth, Africa can’t really move forward. - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/africa-produce-scientific-innovators.html#sthash.D65PXlJT.dpuf

Oh no they didn't…did they?! Empire is one of the juiciest nighttime soaps around—so we're going to take with a grain of salt the fact that the last we saw of the best character on the show in tonight's penultimate episode of season two, he was bleeding out on a red carpet after being freakin' SHOT. And Jamal took the bullet for his homophobic, possibly sociopathic father, who had only a few scenes earlier said he hoped his middle son died from AIDS. Those are totally the words of a human garbage fire, not a father whose son should sacrifice his life for him. Actually, to be honest, it seemed like Jamal tried to stop Freda from shooting Lucious (because he cares about her and didn't want her to make such a destructive decision) rather than trying to stop Lucious from being shot.The whole reason Freda stormed toward the Lyon family was because she found out that Lucious is the one who killed her dad, Frank—imagine how upset she'll be when she finds out that Cookie is the one who snitched on Frank in the first place. Before the shooting, Jamal had decided to sever ties with his family and shelf his album, but now the whole Lyon family is sitting in the hospital waiting for word about his fate. And, uh, so are we—and it looks like we'll have to wait for next week's season finale to find out what it'll be. The teaser for the season two ender also featured a confrontation between Rhonda and Anika (now that Rhonda has realized Anika is the one who pushed her down the stairs), Anika seemingly jumping off a balcony (!!) and Lucious and Cookie tying the knot again. This show is nothing if not eventful! And, by the way, Jamal seems to be the only one who recognizes how insane his family is right now, meaning he's the only tolerable Lyon at the moment. (Cookie's still amazing, but she's just as cray as Lucious. You of course want to be around her for all the fabulousness to rub off, but Jamal's the Lyon you'd probably want to be friends with.) - See more at: http://www.vipgist.com/2016/05/empire-really-just-shot-and-killed-off.html#sthash.FcC9KocN.dpuf

The Benin Football Federation (FBF) have been banned from global football after a court ruling in the country blocked upcoming elections. A court ruling in Benin on Wednesday, May 4 locked the FBF from holding their presidential elections. The ban will be lifted once a new Executive Committee has been installed. The decision was made at the inaugural FIFA Council meeting being held in Mexico. “The Benin Football Association (FBF) was suspended with immediate effect due to a recent injunction by a local judicial court which impeded the holding of the due election," FIFA said in a statement.

It is quite unfortunate that in this country everybody pay more attention to those people making troubles around instead of appreciating those who are peacemakers, for example our today's government focus on north east and some other areas that are causing troubles without recommending the peaceful areas for maintaining peace in the Country. We all are in one way or the other guilty of this problem, and must start learning to appreciate people when necessary. |
