10 NASTY HABITS MEN HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF!!!!

IF YOU MISSED THE FIVE NASTY HABITS OF WOMEN, YOU CAN STILL READ IT HERE

1  Clipping toenails in the living room

   When you clip your toenails, they don't just disappear into some mystical toenail land. Those suckers post-clip are sharp as knives and could easily harm your lady friend, guests and pets. Don't leave them in a pile on the coffee table, either. Organization does not make this less foul. Here's a genius idea: Try a bathroom and a garbage can.



  

2   The pick-and-flick

Speaking of nasty things being flung around at full speed and "disappearing" — ugh! Tissues: Please get a box!

3  Drooling

No one is drool-proof, especially during cold and flu season. But some guys are just out of control. Learn to use your nose when you breathe — and stay away from the pretty pillows!

4  Leaving beard shavings all over the sink

We know you see those tiny trimmings all over the sides of the sink. It's time to take some responsibility, man!

5  Stink bombs

Some men take pride in having really offensive, faint-inducing gas. Save this "fun" for your college buddies, not cuddle time on the couch. And if you always emit fumes that smell like toxic waste, lay off the milk or see a specialist, puh-lease! (P.S.: Dutch ovens are not funny.)

6  Public scratching

What are the reasons behind the constant scratching and shifting around? Take it down a notch, bud.

7  Smoking

Ahhh, the sweet, irresistible scent of an old ashtray (insert gag sound here). Ladies prefer men with fresh, minty breath, pearly white teeth and a general distaste for lung cancer.

8  Peeing on the toilet seat

Do not blame this on waking up in the middle of the night and being too groggy to see what you're doing. No one's asking you to pee into the opening of a soda can, for goodness sakes. It's a big bowl — just aim straight for the middle. 

9  Living in squalor

Living in a dump is acceptable when you're a freshman in the dorms. But a grown man with an apartment that smells like a locker room is a major deal breaker. Scrub those dirty dishes, toss your empty pizza box collection and invest in a professional cleaning service ASAP.

10   Talking with your mouth full

Women are all about sharing food on date night, but not when it lands on our faces. Eeew. Remember what you learned in kindergarten. Chew, swallow and then talk!

China to lift ban on Facebook in Shanghai free trade zone

China has blocked access to Facebook from its populace for a long time. The reason for blocking Facebook access is that China doesn’t want its citizens to have access to information that it deems unfit or unsavory. China recently announced that it was lifting the ban on Facebook, but only within the Shanghai free trade zone.





The Shanghai free trade zone is similar to Hong Kong and is the first of these zones in mainland China. China is lifting the ban on Internet access within the free trade zone to foreign websites previously considered to be politically sensitive by the government. Along with Facebook, that means users within the free trade zone will have access to twitter and other websites such as the New York Times.

Chinese authorities have also announced that they will welcome bids from foreign telecommunications companies for licenses to provide Internet service within the free trade zone in Shanghai. The Internet will only be open within the free trade zone and not anywhere else within the country. One government source said:


In order to welcome foreign companies to invest and to let foreigners live and work happily in the free-trade zone, we must think about how we can make them feel like at home. If they can’t get onto Facebook or read The New York Times, they may naturally wonder how special the free-trade zone is compared with the rest of China.

The Shanghai free-trade zone will span 28.78 square kilometers in the citiy’s Pudong New Area and includes the Waigaoqiao duty-free zone and international Airport. Some Chinese government sources have tipped that eventually the free trade zone could be expanded over the coming years to cover the entire Pudong district, which spans 1210.4 square kilometers. The government hopes that these free-trade zones will help attract foreign investors.

Android Device Manager gets Remote Lock Feature

Google were late in the game in bringing remote find and wipe options to Android but now that they are finally with us it would seem that Google are not resting upon their laurels.

Added today is the new Remote Lock feature which enables you to remotely lock your device with a new password should you have temporarily mislaid it. This is a less drastic solution than completing a full wipe as it will simply password protect your device.

Activation is simple, simply go to Android device manager on your pc, wait for your device to be located and select lock. This brings up a password box where you put in your new code, confirm it and select the lock button and wait. Your are then told that a lock command has been sent, your device screen turns off and waits for your selected lock code.



I have to say that upon trying I could not get this to work for me whilst on wi-fi but as soon as I switched to the 3G network all worked fine.

It would seem that finally the accusations of Android lacking in security are being addressed and that Google are intent on ensuring that they have the necessary options in place for users to secure their devices.

[SHOCKING]: LAGOS-BUS crushes soldier to death in Lagos (heart wrenching photo)

This horrible accident happened yesterday Monday Sept. 23rd along the Alaka/Costain crossover bridge in Surulere. The driver of one of the buses in the state mass transit scheme lost control of his bus and crashed into a soldier riding a motorcyle on the express. The yet-to-be identified soldier was cut almost into two by the bus. (Too graphic...but will show you just one pic).

According to a source who witnessed the accident, the driver was on top speed when he lost control of the vehicle as he approached a bad spot on the dilapidated bridge. The driver, while trying to avoid the bad spot, swerved to the left pinning the soldier on the railing of the bridge. The bus dragged the soldier for a bit and cut through his bowel.

Eyewitnesses said the soldier, who died on the spot, was carrying a woman on the back seat of the motorcycle, and was flung away from the impact of the collision. She survived the crash but is in a critical condition in the hospital. The driver of the bus fled the scene after seeing the extent of the damage and so did the passengers of the bus a few minutes later, fearing attack from soldiers.

Mikel’s goal: It was jubilation galore in our house – Elder brother

Nigerian midfielder Mikel Obi scored his first-ever goal in the English Premier League (EPL) for Chelsea FC seven years after joining the premiership on Saturday and it was celebrated by his entire family.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the goal was scored during Chelsea FC’s match against Fulham at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea’s home grounds.

Mikel struck in the 84th minute, giving the North London club a 2-0 derby win over Martin Jol’s Fulham in week five of the league.

Ebere Obi, Mikel’s elder brother, told NAN on telephone on Sunday that the whole family was excited at the first-ever goal.


“I feel great, it is a thing of joy for him to be playing for a club like Chelsea, playing week-in, week-out, without scoring.

“But he kept on working and hoping that one day, he will score and now, he has made it, I’m so happy for that,’’ Ebere said.

Ebere, a second-choice goalkeeper with Heartland FC of Owerri, added that there was a lot of merriment at home on Saturday as the Obi family saw the goal as a thing to celebrate.

Chelsea’s Manager, Jose Mourinho, said after the match that it was good for the Nigerian midfielder and for the club, adding that it will add to his confidence.

“Good for him, good for us. It’s good for his confidence. He played well, giving balance to the team,’’ Mourinho said.

Mourinho added that Mikel’s first EPL goal would definitely spark a flurry of congratulations for him.

JAMB: students will no longer use PAPER AND BIROS from 2015

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) said on Monday that its Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) would be computer-based from 2015.

The JAMB Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, said this in Akure at an advocacy campaign on the advantages of the Computer-Based Test (CBT).

According to the registrar, “any person who can use the mobile phone can also take part in the test.’’

Ojerinde said that candidates in the 2014 UTME could still choose between CBT and the normal “pencil and paper’’ method.

“After 2014, there will be no option for any candidate to choose again. CBT is the key. The world is changing and technology has reached an advanced stage.

“The way to go now is technology. If we don’t want to remain in the same place,’’ he said.

Ojerinde, who said that there were enough facilities for the CBT in Ondo state, also made it clear that candidates who chose to write the next UTME in the state would have no option than the CBT.


“With the FUTA Centre, the Adeyemi College of Education (ACE), Ondo and the Rufus Giwa Polytechnic , Owo, there is no reason for anybody to write UTME by the PTP (Pen-To, Paper),’’ he said.

Ojerinde said that the board would encourage candidates in Akure and environs to take the CBT because of facilities at FUTA, Adeyemi College of Education (ACE), Ondo and Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo,

The registrar assured that the exam would be free from hackers “because the board will not go through the server of another institution.’’

No fewer than 100 secondary school students from 10 schools in Akure sat for a mock version of the CBT at the Information and Technology Resource Centre, Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA).




Immediately after the test all the candidates got their results before they logged out of the system.

Microsoft adds 200GB SkyDrive option

Microsoft is offering SkyDrive users an additional 200GB of storage for £64 a year.

That option's available alongside whatever you already have - so if you only have the 7GB Microsoft gives you for free, paying for the upgrade will get you 207GB in total

There are cheaper options still available, with an additional 50GB costing £16 a year, or a further 100GB for £32 a year. Although there's a 20GB option available in the US, that isn't available for British users.

The new plan matches Amazon's equivalent Cloud Drive option, and is cheaper than either Google Drive or Dropbox. However, Google Drive offers more free storage upfront at 15GB, and its plans range up to 2TB for £750 per year.

SkyDrive's additional storage is limited to the 200GB plan, though Microsoft claims that's "enough space to take a photo, every hour, from the moment someone is born, to the day they graduate".

Microsoft is throwing in a free two-year subscription to SkyDrive at 200GB to anyone buying the Surface 2 - the follow-up to the Surface RT - or the Surface Pro 2.

SkyDrive is also set to see a name change after Microsoft lost a trademark suit to Sky earlier this year. It isn't clear when the service will be renamed or what it'll be called.

SO SAD!! gunmen raped a young girl, who was celebrating her birthday

BIRTHDAY TRAGEDY: Girl raped, fiance shot

Tragedy struck at the university town of Nsukka, EnuguState, weekend, as unidentified gunmen raped a young girl, who was celebrating her birthday with her lover boy, who was also shot in the head.

Vanguard gathered that the incident occurred last Saturday, when the girl’s boyfriend, identified as Sunday Ozioko, 30, took out his lover in his new Toyota Camry saloon car as part of the birthday celebration.

It was learned that the gunmen, who rode in a motorcycle, blocked the vehicle along Orba Road at 6.30p.m., took over the car and sped off through Orba Market to Obollo-Afor.

They stopped at Alor-AnoCommunitySecondary School, raped the girl and shot her fiancé, who survived the attack, but was said to be in critical condition.

A source told Vanguard that when the two gunmen were through at 9:30p.m., they gave the victim N500, having been dropped off at Odolu in KogiState.

Realising that the girl could identify then later, the bandits allegedly made for the girl again, who was able to escape through a path that led her to a crusade ground, where Adonai Faith Assembly was having a vigil.

Rescue

The obviously horrified girl was said to have narrated her ordeal to the congregation, who she told her fiancee was still lying in his pool of blood.

According to a source, the pastor of the church immediately swung into action, reached out to the police at Nsukka Urban, who quickly rushed him to BishopShanahanHospital, Nsukka.

Efforts made to speak with the victim at his hospital private ward proved abortive as his relations barred press men from seeing him.

Sunday Ozioko has, however, been transferred to UNTH, Enugu, for a surgical operation on his head.

Enugu State Police spokesman, Ebere Amarizu, said police were on top of the situation and vowed that everything would be done to track down the bandits.

ECONOMIC WASTAGE: how Lagosians Spend N1.2billion Monthly On Aso Ebi [SHOCKING]

Lagosians Spend N1.2billion Monthly On Aso Ebi & N36billion Annually On Parties – Governor Fashola

Lagos state governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola at the 4th edition of the Lagos Ignite Enterprise and Employability project this weekend revealed that more than N36 billion is spent by Lagosians annually to organise parties and that Aso Ebi alone gulped a minimum of N1.2 billion Monthly.

“This was the study of night life carried out by the government in five local governments including Agege, Mushin, Ifako-Ijaiye and Ikeja and another local government. It showed that more than N36 billion was spent on 1555 parties held within the period. We did a study between October and November last year. 

We studied from Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, three days every week for four weeks which was 12 nights. In 12 nights, 1555 parties were held in these local governments. In terms of drinks, food and all other engagements during such parties, about N1.2 billion was spent and when we dis-aggregated them we saw how much went to DJ, MC, food and drinks, the total picture in the state now and I don’t want to give you a wrong number but it’s something in the region of about N3 billion monthly on that side of our life and people are playing and impacting on that side of our economy.

24 Hours Non-Stop Heavy Rainfall In Ibadan & Benin Traps Residents Indoor

24 hour non-stop heavy rainfall affected the ancient city of Ibadan, capital of Oyo State.

The rain started on Sunday evening, and by Monday evening, it was still raining.

Several bridges across Ibadan, were covered by the flood, making residents to stay indoors Monday.



The submerged bridges include the 7up/Elebu bridge in Oluyole Estate, which prevented residents, including pupils and government workers, from leaving their homes.

Some of the people, who spoke to NAN, however, bemoaned the sudden increase in the cost of transportation, adding that most commercial motorists even declined to convey people to long distances.

Heavy Rainfall In Benin City, Edo State

Several major roads and streets of Benin City, capital of Edo state in southern Nigeria were Monday flooded following a heavy down pour that lasted for over fifteen hours.

Homes were also flooded and scores of cars that attempted to wade through the water-logged roads were abandoned.

The rain which started at about 2 am and continued till about 6pm when this report was filed, paralysed all forms of business activities in some areas in the city, forcing many people to stayed indoors.

Even the deep roadside and underground drainages constructed in several parts of the city could not contain the attendant flow of water. Roadside drainages were overflown as a result of the intensity of the rain, turning several roads to rivers with high current.

Among the roads seriously affected by the flood were Uselu-Ugbowo Road, Sapele Road and Dumez Road.

Many residents were seen erecting emergency barriers in their premises under the rain to prevent the resultant flood from overrunning their houses, while others were seen bailing the flood water from their houses.

Angry Tenant Killed Landlord & Wife Over Quit Notice In Akwa Ibom

(photo): house burnt by the tenant

Eviction Notice Forced Angry Tenant To Set House On Fire, Killing Landlord & Wife

A tenant of a house on Asuquo Eyo Street, Ifa Ikot Okpon, Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, identified simply as Ime, aka Shawa, has been accused of killing his landlord and the wife and also setting the house ablaze.

It was said that Ime, 40, had attacked his landlord, Mr. Edem Akpan and his wife, Affiong, with matchete before setting the house on fire.

One of the daughters to the late couple, Ms. Emem Akpan, told our correspondent that trouble started when her father gave Ime a quit notice.

She said Ime had threatened that if her father insisted on sending him (Ime) out, he would kill him and burn down the house.

She said, “We thought it was just a mere threat. None of us could believe that Ime was capable of doing what he said.

“Two days ago, we saw him bringing worn out tyres into the compound. We didn’t know he had a plan.

“Yesterday (Sunday), before we left for church in the evening, he brought 20 litres of fuel, more than what his generator could contain.

“A neighbour asked him what he wanted to do with such quantity of fuel, but he told him that he was going to run the generator overnight.

“This is what we saw this morning as we returned from church – the fuel and worn out tyres were weapons used by the assailant to kill my parents.”

Another daughter and ex-girlfriend of Ime, Ms. Ruth Jeremiah, said she parted ways with Ime a year and three months ago.

She said it was because Ime did not let her know his parents and his surname that made her to terminate the relationship.

She said that for the three years she dated Ime, she did not know anything about him except his alias – Shawa.

“I decided to end the relationship with Ime because he was not straight forward. He wanted to marry me, but whenever I asked him to take me to his people, he would refuse,” she said.

She stated that Ime had removed his property in the house before killing her parents and setting the house ablaze.

Asked if there was tenancy agreement which could lead to the arrest of the assailant, Jeremiah stated that there was nothing like that as the father offered Ime his house based on a gentleman’s agreement.

Efforts to get the Police Public Relations Officer, Akwa Ibom State Police Command, Mr. Etim Dickson, to speak on the matter, proved abortive as calls and texts to his telephone were not replied.
