Valentine’s Day is a time to celebrate romance and love and kissy-face fealty. But the origins of this festival of candy and cupids are actually dark, bloody — and a bit muddled. Though no one has pinpointed the exact origin of the holiday, one good place to start is ancient Rome, where men hit on women by, well, hitting them. From February 13 to 15, the Romans celebrated the feast of Lupercalia. The men sacrificed a goat and a dog, then whipped women with the hides of the animals they had just slain. The Roman romantics “were drunk. They were naked,” says Noel Lenski, a historian at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Young women would actually line up for the men to hit them, Lenski says. They believed this would make them fertile. The brutal fete included a matchmaking lottery, in which young men drew the names of women from a jar. The couple would then be, um, coupled up for the duration of the festival — or longer, if the match was right. The ancient Romans may also be responsible for the name of our modern day of love. Emperor Claudius II executed two men — both named Valentine — on February 14 of different years in the 3rd century A.D. Their martyrdom was honored by the Catholic Church with the celebration of St. Valentine’s Day. Later, Pope Gelasius I muddled things in the Fifth Century by combining St. Valentine’s Day with Lupercalia to expel the pagan rituals. But the festival was more of a theatrical interpretation of what it had once been. Lenski adds, “It was a little more of a drunken revel, but the Christians put clothes back on it. That didn’t stop it from being a day of fertility and love.” Around the same time, the Normans celebrated Galatin’s Day. Galatin meant “lover of women.” That was likely confused with St. Valentine’s Day at some point, in part because they sound alike. As the years went on, the holiday grew sweeter. Chaucer and Shakespeare romanticized it in their work, and it gained popularity throughout Britain and the rest of Europe. Handmade paper cards became the tokens-du-jour in the Middle Ages. Eventually, the tradition made its way to the New World. The industrial revolution ushered in factory-made cards in the 19th century. And in 1913, Hallmark Cards of Kansas City, Missouri, began mass producing valentines. February has not been the same since. Today, the holiday is big business: According to market research firm IBIS World, Valentine’s Day sales reached $17.6bn last year; this year’s sales are expected to total $18.6bn. read more http://www.xclusivegists.com/2018/02/the-mysterious-origins-of-valentines.html

If they knew that this car will mean nothing today,and what ever luxury they desired, they might not have lost their lives..... The youths of today shouldn't be carried away with the trend of today, Bentley, Range Rover, G wagon and other cars because certainly tomorrow, it will mean nothing to you and your children.

An eyewitness account: “Around 11am today, the hostel supervisor of Isakaita hostel Unn used bell to go around the hostel, telling students that he was giving us 30minutes to pack out. We explained that most of us which are in the hostel doing our industrial training either in the Farm, in the case of Agric students or in schools as in the case of Education students. He insisted that he was only giving us 30 minutes to pack out. To where, he didn't say. We told him to give us time, so that those that went to farm can come back. PS: we paid 1k for the temporal accommodation. He said he was going to call security for us, in less than 10minutes, #unn_security came and started beating and kicking girls out of the hostel. They were shouting on us, calling us all kinds of degrading names, their favorite being #prostitutes. You will find attached, pictures of the proof of their animality and brutality towards #UNN_STUDENTS. PS: When I was taking the pictures, one of them approached me to forcefully collect my phone. I told him that I was a house of rep member and we will get him sacked. They entered their car and left with their tail.” Read more here... http://www.xclusivegists.com/2017/10/unn-hostel-supervisors-beats-up.html?m=1
