See adorable momemt 3 yr old interrupts homecoming procession to hug his mother after her 9month tour of Afghanistan


This is the adorable moment a 3 year old boy ran into the arms of his mother after not seeing her for months as she and other soldiers stood in line waiting to finally be dismissed so they could re-unite with their families after serving in Afghanistan for 9 months. 
As soldiers stood in line, 3 year old Cooper Waldvogel ignored the strict military protocol, ran up to the troops and into his mother’s arms, who was so happy to scoop him up. Other soldiers tried to keep straight faces because they’d been ordered not to interact with family members as they stood in line, but they later said it was the most adorable thing they’d ever seen.

Woman Transforms Into ‘Human Sex Doll’ – See Scary Before and After Pictures



We’ve heard of women who are “Human Barbies” but this 30-year-old woman from Latvia, now known as Victoria Wild, her dream was to turn herself into a “living sex doll.” And she has achieved her aim after spending tens of thousands of dollars!
Victoria Wild is happy that after her transformation, she now gets more attention and can work more profitably as a “model, TV personality, and ‘bombshell.'” She says she began having operations at age 25 in an attempt to look more like a blow-up sex toy, and now she’s up to three breast enlargements to get to a 32G, a nose job, lip implants, and Botox.

Nigerian Government Reacts to Egypt Air’s Maltreatment of 17-Year-Old Nigerian Student

The Nigerian government through the foreign ministry has summoned the Egyptian ambassador, Ashraf Salama to formally protest the treatment of 17-year old Joshua Abdul-Azeez, during his botched trip using Egypt Air. The junior minister, Viola Onwuliri, accused Egypt Air of “child-abuse” for starving theteenager of food for three days, after wrongly routing his air ticket, and she demanded an unreserved apology from the Egyptian Government.
According to PremiumTimes, she said it was unacceptable that Egypt Air had failed to respond to repeated enquiries from the Nigeria Embassy in Cairo on what led to the treatment of the Nigerian student in Ukraine like a criminal.
In his defence, the Egyptian ambassador said the Nigerian media was to blame for escalating a “small incident’’ involving a Nigerian passenger and Egypt Air, which is wholly owned by the Egyptian government. He added that his embassy had contacted Egypt Air and his home government on the incident but had yet to receive a formal report.
Read the touching story from the young boy of how he was wrongly routed to Moldova instead of Kiev where he was to study medicine. From that mistake, he was stuck in airports over three days with no food, and then in Egypt, while trying to work out his situation, he was called a bloody Nigerian, and had his passport torn before being deported back to Lagos.

El Rufai replies Ayo Oritsejafor, asks him to look beyond his bling

Mallam Nasir El Rufai has reacted to the statement released yesterday by Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor-led Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, where he (El-Rufai) was accused of trying to tarnish the image of Oritsejafor (read here).
In a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Muyiwa Adekeye, Mallam El Rufai advised the CAN President to look beyond his bling and answer questions surrounding the private jet seized by SA authorities and his involvement in the controvery. Find the statement below…

When light unexpectedly shines on murkiness, those exposed by the stinging rays often berate the light rather than regret the muck. That is the plight of Ayo Oritsejafor whose private jet was identified as the vessel impounded by the South African authorities for ferrying $ 9.3m cash into their country. A statement from Eagle Air admitted Oritsejafor’s interests in the aircraft, but said it leased the plane to Green Coast which in turn acknowledged hiring the plane out for the trip to South Africa.

Champions League: Chelsea fumbles to a 1-1 draw against Schalke

Chelsea couldn't carry over their Premier League form into Europe as they struggled in their 1-1 draw against Schalke 04 in the UEFA Champions League.

Jose Mourinho's team have been imperious in the English Premier League,already leading the table with maximum points after four games,which made them the firm favourites coming into this game against the Germans.

Schalke had injury worries coming into the fixture but the Germans put up a spirited performance in the game to secure a valuable point on the road.

Cesc Fabregas opened his account for Chelsea,sweeping home a pass from Eden Hazard in the 11th minute.

It looked like it was going to be a vintage Chelsea performance from then on but they couldn't find the second elusive goal.

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar stumped in an equaliser after a quick counter to level for his side in the second half,and the Germans held on from then.

Loic Remy had a shot cleared off the line as Schalke held on for the precious point.

Meanwhile in Germany,Bayern Munich left it late to secure a 1-0 victory over Manchester City.

Jerome Boateng scored a stunning last-minute winner to deny his former team a point.



Results:
Bayern Munich 1 - 0 Man City
Roma 5 - 1 CSKA Moscow
Ajax 1 - 1 Paris Saint Germain
Barcelona 1 - 0 Apoel Nicosia
Chelsea 1 - 1 FC Schalke 04
NK Maribor 1 - 1 Sporting
Ath Bilbao 0 - 0 Shaktar Donestk
FC Porto 6 - 0 BATE Borisov

Cheating Man Ordered to Pay $5K for Taking Girlfriend’s Virginity

A married chinese man who had sex with his virgin girlfriend after telling her he was single has been ordered to pay an equivalent of $ 5,000 in compensation.
A People’s Court in Pudong New Area had ordered the man, surnamed Li, to pay his younger lover, surnamed Chen, the money in compensation for violating her “virginity right”.
This is the first time I’m hearing about virginity as a right, and a man being made to pay back for it in such a situation. I’m still thinking whether it is a good or bad thing. Read on for the full story according to SCMP,


The court heard how Chen met Li online five years ago but didn’t start dating him until September 2013, at which time Li told her he was a bachelor. During a trip to Singapore later in the year, the couple had sex for the first time, but after they returned to China Li became distant and soon broke off their relationship.
In February, unable to contact Li, Chen broke into his home, where she met his wife.
On March 26, Chen filed a lawsuit alleging that Li had “violated her virginity by deception”. She demanded 500,000 yuan in compensation and a written apology.

Meredith Vieira will be discussing the topic of domestic violence on today’s episode of her brand new afternoon talk show.
As activists continue to raise awareness on DV following the stories of Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson in the NFL, the former Who Wants to be a Millionaire host will be sharing a personal story of the experiences she had with an abusive boyfriend many years ago. She told ABC;
“It started out with, we’d have a fight and he’d just sort of grab my arm. I didn’t think a lot about it, and then it turned into pushing me against the wall and then it went beyond that to actually taking his hand and grabbing my face and saying, ‘I could ruin your career if I wanted to and no one would want you.'”
“Then there was the night that, we shared an apartment, and he threw me into a shower, naked in scalding water and then he threw me outside into the hallway, we lived in an apartment building, and I hid in the stairwell for two hours until he came again crying, and said ‘I promise I won’t do this again.’ And I continued to stay in that relationship until I was offered a job in another state and that’s where I felt I had the ability to get away.”
Vieira, 60, is now happily married to her husband of 29 years, journalist Richard Cohen. They have three children. However, the experience helped shape the talk show host, who admitted that leaving her abusive ex was difficult.

No Nigerian Would Contract The Ebola Virus if Patrick Sawyer Came to Nigeria Today - GEJ Boasts

President Jonathan has called upon teachers to halt their plans to commence a strike, promising them that he was working on a speedy resolution to the health concerns in the nation.

He also stated that Nigeria has put the Ebola virus under control and that the country's current level of alertness would ensure that, were Patrick Sawyer to arrive the country this instant, No Nigerian would contract the Ebola virus.

#PremiumTimes has this story:
"“Presently there is no case of Ebola in Nigeria, nobody in Nigeria has Ebola now. All the people that had the symptoms of Ebola have recovered. Out of 19, we lost seven and the others have recovered. Yes, there are a few people we are observing,” he said.

The President, however, noted that in spite of the efficient management of the disease in Nigeria, there may still be a reoccurrence as the disease was still being battled in other West African countries such as Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.

“The likelihood that characters like the late (Patrick Sawyer, the Liberian-American who brought the disease to Nigeria) can come in one way or the other is also open. But government is also very mindful of that. Presently, our airports are properly protected. If Sawyer were to arrive Nigeria now, no Nigerian would have contracted Ebola because of the level of preparation,” Mr. Jonathan assured.

36-year old Chris, met Norma now 68, when he was just 18 at a holiday camp and proposed to her shortly after he turned 21. Interestingly, they have been living happily together as a couple in Brighton for 15 years now.

Pls Advice: My girlfriend and ex are in business together, should I stop them?

I have dated my present girlfriend for 3 years and I dated my ex girlfriend for about 4 years. They really disliked each other as a matter of fact my ex girlfriend would call my girlfriend to threaten her. But for some reason I kind of calm4ed the situation but for some reason they got along this year and have opened up a business in a spare room in my house, none of them stay with me though.
I know my girlfriend can be so naïve, so I’m not worried about her but my ex girlfriend can be so mischievous sometimes. So far I am acting all cool about the business and them getting along but then again maybe I and my girlfriend are under some spell, just saying.
So far they already have clients for their small business.

I don’t know if I should stop them from getting along and from continuing with the business or I should let the relationship die a natural death. I still have feelings for my ex and I know she does for me as well but I don’t want her back except as a friend.
Do you think I should stop their business? Or rather stop the business in my house? Or try to break them up?

Mother and Daughter Come Out about Lesbian Relationship To Encourage Others

Mary and Vertasha Carter are mother and daughter, and also lesbian lovers. I wanted to rule this off as made-up news from a satire website, but this seems to be real.
They even have a Twitter page where they describe themselves as “Vertasha and Mary the first openly African-American mother and daughter Lesbian couple.”
According to Stuppid.com which first broke the news, Mary Carter said:
“Vertasha and I knew we were attracted to each other when she was sixteen. But we decided to wait to have sex until she was eighteen, legally of age. We are now going public with our relationship to help others who might be in gay mother/daughter relationship feel confident and okay about coming out. We want the world to know we love each other as mother and daughter and romantically.”
The site goes on to say that most laws that forbid incest do so mostly because of inbreeding and the birth defects that can often come as a consequence. And of course, Mary sees that as not being a factor in her incestous relationship with her daughter.
Mary Carter is of the opinion that;

The Nigerian woman and the challenge of finding Mr Right – Alibaba

In this piece which he posted on his Facebook wall, comedian Alibaba discusses the Nigerian woman and the challenges of finding Mr Right. Read below…

I have a serious matter at hand that I want to share. In fact, I should have shared this long ago, but the primary message from a friend that prompted the matter, was lost in between the series of inbox messages from those strange girls that are looking for romantic friendships on Facebook.
In a nutshell, a lady friend sent me an inbox message on how it’s harder to find a good man in Nigeria. And that the men who are “manageable” (her words, not mine) are so scarce and if you ever get them they are either married to a lady that does not deserve them or just repenting from a bad marriage from one of such women. Or even just lost faith in the whole marriage thing. Continue…
I later ran into her at a club. After the usual introductions that have become common place with these social media network of friends… (You are my friend on twitter, Facebook, Tango, INSTAGRAM… That kind of thing)…. I chatted with her a bit and found out from what she told me, that, many women are now settling for anything in between MR Right, MR Not just ok and MR Nearly right. As she put it, it’s now a case of looking at what a guy checks out in the top 10 box… And if he has 3 out of 10, snap him up… Work on the rest 7, if you are lucky, you can get him to add 3 more of those top10 qualities… And begin to pray it lasts for as long as you both can manage.

BREAKING: Yola Farmers Allegedly Find Missing Air Force Fighter Jet

According to the Daily Independent newspaper, there is reason to believe that the Nigerian Air Force Alpha Fighter Jet which was reported missing on Friday had been found on Sunday.

Sources close to the Yola Air Force Base confirmed that the plane crashed in Lala, Gombi LGA.

However, a story by BusinessDay reports that the Defense Headquarters has confirmed that the NAF 466 is still missing.

I hope to continue scoring for Chelsea- Diego Costa

Chelsea striker Diego Costa has said that to continue with his fine performances for his club, but warned that it may not continue till the end of the season.

The Spanish player got his hat-trick for his club as Chelsea beat Swansea 4-2 which helped them solidify their base on the top of the Premier League table.

Costa has now scored seven goals in four games since his arrival from Atletico Madrid this summer, with the striker admitting his scoring rate is beyond his own expectations.

“I try to play in the best manner, and hopefully things will continue like this, but there will be a moment when I cannot score. That is football,” Costa said. “Every striker has their way of playing and their strengths and a different team behind them. That is very important. If you do not have the team behind you, then you can’t do things on your own. It all depends on the team.

“I am adapting very well, although it’s not just me. The key is the group that we have. It is like a family. The squad and all the people around the team are united in our cause.”

How Meditation Can Improve Your Career

Photo by Trunk Archive
You know the basics to climbing the career ladder: Take initiative, work late, and don’t complain. But scientists have stumbled upon another powerful way to get ahead at the office: Meditation. 
According to a recent study published in the journal Psychological Science, people make more decisive and rational business decisions after just a 15-minute meditation session. Those who practice mindfulness also receive higher performance ratings and are less likely to quit. What’s more, even if you’re not Zen, it could help you to have a boss who is, as the study found employees tend to perform better when their managers are meditators.
The need to get spiritual has not been lost on many major companies: Orbitz recently introduced a meditation and prayer center to its Chicago location after noticing employees sneaking into stairwells for peace and quiet. And HBO, Proctor and Gamble, and Deutsche Bank are among corporations offering meditation programs to employees.

'Django' Actress Daniele Watts Goes on Offensive After Being Detained by LAPD for Heavy PDA

Actress Daniele Watts, whose Facebook post about being detained by the Los Angeles Police Department  went viral over the weekend, continues to rail against her perceived mistreatment.
While being interviewed by CNN on Monday, Watts, who has appeared in Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained and TV shows Weeds and Partners, said that she refused to give an LAPD officer her identification when he asked for it because, "I believe in America and what it stands for."
Watts claims she was detained because officers thought she was a prostitute. The actress, who is African American, and her white boyfriend, celebrity chef Brian James Lucas, have accused police of racism for questioning them after they say they were just "making out" in public.
The incident happened outside of CBS Studio Center in Studio City on Thursday, and picked up attention over after Watts detailed her account on her Facebook page, stating, "officers accosted me and forced me into handcuffs."
"I gave him my ID knowing we did nothing wrong and when they asked D for hers, she refused to give it because they had no right to do so," wrote Lucas. "So they handcuffed her and threw her roughly into the back of the cop car until they could figure out who she was. In the process of handcuffing her, they cut her wrist, which was truly not cool!"
