1  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Meet The Glass Cup That Tells You When To Stop Drinking on: 14-06-2014 03:42 PM

Imagine you are welded to the sofa at home about to watch a third match in a row. You have been drinking throughout the day, but reach for another can of cold beer and fill your glass.
But the vessel you are drinking from says that your alcohol intake has exceeded safe levels and urges you to reconsider.

Rather than a desperate government intervention, this is the concept of the Vessyl 'smart cup' -- a groundbreaking addition to the field of consumer health technologies, which has launched for pre-orders. The sleek 13-ounce design is fitted with a sensor that analyzes the molecular content of drinks in real time, and then displays selected nutritional information such as sugar or alcohol content on the side of the cup.

Justin Lee, inventor and CEO of parent company Mark One
In a live demonstration for CNN, inventor and CEO of parent company Mark One, Justin Lee used the Vessyl to identify a range of beverages. The cup -- synced to his iPhone -- took only a few seconds to recognize a specific brand of smoothie, and was able to discern an exact flavor of Frappuccino. Moments later, sugar and calorie content flash up.

2  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Let’s Talk About It! Should Nigerian Men Also Take Paternity Leave? on: 14-06-2014 03:19 PM

PLEASE GISTMANIA READERS READ AND COMMENT
For starters, parental leave is an employee benefit that provides paid or unpaid time off work to care for a child.

Working mothers mostly take time off to heal and care for their new child.

So what about the men? Don’t they also need a paid paternity leave to care for the child as well?

As Father’s Day approaches, the conversation is buzzing in America. NBC News reports that Boston College’s Center for Work and Family has released a research which reveals that 89% of men say it is important for employers to provide paid paternity leave.

14% of companies offer paid time off for new fathers, while most companies offer 12 weeks of unpaid leave.

Yes it is happening in America, so let’s bring it to Nigeria. We asked a couple of people and their responses were that the father should leave the responsibility to the women.

So, we are throwing the question to mothers, fathers and our opinionated readers, should our Nigerian men also have paid paternity leave when they welcome a child?

Actor Harrison Ford was injured on the set of “Star Wars: Episode VII” on Thursday and taken to a hospital for treatment, a Disney representative said.
Ford, 71, hurt his ankle while filming at Pinewood Studios, on the outskirts of London, Disney spokesman Paul Roeder said.
Filming will continue on schedule while Ford recovers. The actor was taken to nearby John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford.
Thames Valley Police said on its official Twitter feed that police responded to an incident where “a 71-year old man was airlifted to hospital with injuries not believed to be life-threatening.”
A second tweet said the mishap “is believed to have involved a garage door.”
Vanessa Davies, a unit publicist for the “Star Wars” film, said any reports that Ford suffered other injuries as well were untrue.
The actor is reprising his role as Han Solo in the highly anticipated Disney reboot of the “Star Wars” franchise, directed by J.J. Abrams and scheduled for release in December 2015.
It is the first of three new films that will continue the saga created by George Lucas, after Disney purchased Lucas film in 2012 for $4.05 billion.
The film’s plot has been kept a secret, but Abrams has said the cast will include Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Andy Serkis and Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong’o.
The movie is set 30 years after “Return of the Jedi.”

6  Forum / The Buzz Central / We Are Not Bleaching, We Just Dont Walk Inside The Sun - Aneke Twins on: 14-06-2014 03:02 PM
 

 Many fans loved the photos but accused them of bleaching; their fans commented on the photos saying they looked lighter than what they used to be in their previous photos. They have come out to debunk the claims that they are bleaching. They say it is the camera lights and because they hardly walk in the sun that’s why their skin looks lighter and glows.
In a recent chat with Punch, they say they have been using the same cream for the past eight years and they love their black skin the way it is. The sisters say they don’t use bleaching cream as people say. See what they said below.
”I can’t bleach. There was a white background where we took the pictures. Apparently, they reflected on the pictures and sort of lightened our skin. Black is a beautiful color. “I have been using the same cream for the past eight years and it is not a bleaching cream. We hardly walk in the sun. Perhaps that is why our skin glows. I don’t bleach and my sister doesn't bleach either.”

7  Forum / The Buzz Central / Why Nigerian Celebrity Marriages Crash on: 14-06-2014 02:57 PM



Nigerian rapper, Phyno has found love! He does not want a prize for his No Guts No Glory album. No. Neither does he want the Grammy.

He’s itching to marry…wait for it…Genevieve Nnaji!

More than the reaction trailing Phyno’s wish, he may have also opened a can of worms on failed celebrity marriages suffocating the industry.

Imagine if Genny swallows her pride and gives the rapper a chance; will it stand the test of time? Given our celebrities passion for breaking up at the slightest challenge?

It is everywhere, celebrities wedding quickly grab the attention of tabloids and fans, but so are their marriages crashing. Ours is even more confusing, as our celebrities seem to be in competition for the ultimate prize of broken marriage. Weird.

At the tick of the clock, our celebrities jump out of their marriages. And for the flimsiest excuses too. Infidelity is usually a first suspect. Yet, you’re unsure if they’ve been dedicated to their marital vows. Next is the rant about irreconcilable differences. But at what point? Given that these celebrities date for as many years before marriage?

Today, the industry is replete with tales of failed marriages. From Tchidi Chikere and Sophia, to Fred Amata and Agatha, 9ice and Toni Payne, Frank Edoho and Katherine, Lanre Falana and Steph Nora, Eddy Montana and Kenny St. Brown, Saheed and Fathia Balogun…The list goes on.

If the younger generation looking up to these celebrities is a concern, then the children from these broken unions are the worst hits.

What do our celebrities really want? Perfect marriage? Maybe in the movies! Ask Olu Jacobs and Joke Silva who have had an enduring celebrity marriage. It has not been all rosy.

Phyno may have merely shared a dream. He has a right to. But given phyno’s rising profile and Genny’s established status across the continent, you may just have another reason celebrity marriages crash.

9  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Dear GM Readers, Should I Tell My Friend Her “Diamond” Engagement Ring is fake on: 14-06-2014 02:52 PM


 I have secretly read your site for a while now and never thought I would be writing you. But I need input and loved your response when you responded to the letter from the girl who wanted to tell her friend she was marrying the wrong guy. Great job on the forum, by the way. One of my best friends recently got engaged and we (all of us in our group of friends) are genuinely happy for her. She’s been showing off the ring so much, on all social media…its on Twitter, Facebook, BB, Whats App, Instagram, etc. It’s a nice ring but here’s the thing… we all know it’s not a real diamond. But she thinks it is because she’s been raving on social media about how big and beautiful it is and how her hubby did well. A couple of people have told me, “ah why don’t you tell your friend that her man is deceiving her and save her this embarrassment?” I’m afraid it has become the topic on the grapevine and people are laughing behind her back. Should we tell her the truth or shut our traps?

10  Forum / The Buzz Central / I Use 11 Pack of Human Hair which cost N500k on my Hair...……Muma Gee on: 14-06-2014 02:44 PM

According to Muma Gee, it only takes a special and patient person to make her hair which takes up to eight hours to be through.

She explained that she invest about half a million just to get her hair done, because of the high cost of human hair which she says is about N60,000 and she uses 11 packs of it.

The artiste was quick to explain that it is actually the hair pieces that can go for that amount and those hair can actually last for years.

She explained that, “I have had had hair extensions that have lasted for 10years. Each time I remove the waves, I take it to hair companies and they treat the hair and they are as good as new.”

11  Forum / The Buzz Central / I Owe my Ex-Keturah Hamilton A Debt I Can Never Pay For Life - Jim Iyke on: 14-06-2014 02:41 PM



The actor explained this during an interview session with Emmer Emerson of Golden Icons, that sometimes people allow their emotions to over shadow them and as such, are bound to say something’s which they never meant.

It would be recalled that when Jim Iyke broke up with Keturah Hamilton, she bashed him publicly saying his show was fake, and promised to reveal his secrets.

Jimmy further explained that he decided to keep silent because he and Keturah did not part well but lived well and as such, would not have people to sit and say things into his ear.

“Whatever comes out of my mouth I take responsibility because I sat about it, tailored it and thought about it and said it. I can afford to forgive you if you are emotionally charged and you feel wronged. You are going to say stuff you don’t mean.”

The actor further noted that some people are not just meant to come into your life, but rather, they come to help make a change and you definitely owe them a debt you will never be able to pay for the rest of your life.

“That is what I owe that woman. I’ve offered her friendship and she is taking that. I’m glad we can look at our stupid mistakes and laugh about it. When you are in that place, there is nothing more beautiful than that.”

14  Forum / Politics / Vigilantes Arrest Top Boko Haram Member In Maiduguri on: 14-06-2014 02:26 PM


A key Boko Haram member was arrested by youths in the capital city of Borno State, Maiduguri, on June 13, 2014, Friday, following a tip-off by a young man who was able to recognize the sect member.
The internally displaced person, who helped to bust the terrorist, fled Gwoza area of Borno State, where multiple communities were raided and dozens of people were killed in the past several weeks.
He was able to recognize the sect member near the Timber Shed along Baga Road, Maiduguri, because this man was the one who had gunned down the brother of the young man.
A local vigilante member told Weekly Trust that the suspect with a plastic bag in his hand was about to enter the Timber Shed, when the refugee raised the alarm and called for help of the Civilian JTF.
The young vigilante, who participated in the arrest, futher narrated that the suspect was neutralised and confessed of being a Boko Haram member for the fear of being lynched. He also promised to provide some useful information, including those that can lead to arrest of other terrorists who have already infiltrated Maiduguri, Kasuwan Gwoza area in particular. In exchange, he asked to spare his life.
The suspect has also confessed killing the brother of the displaced person and many others during terrorist raids on communities.
The vigilantes believed him and did not kill the sect member on the spot. Instead, they have handed him over to soldiers.
Civilian JTF works in close contact with security operatives. The youths watch the area and make it difficult for Boko Haram members to operate openly in the Maiduguri metropolis.
More and more people seek refuge in the city. Over 6,000 left their villages in the month of June only, begging for safety due to endless Boko Haram attacks on villages in Borno State, especially around Bama, Gwoza and Konduga local government areas.

It could be recalled rumour spread on Thursday that the monarch, who clocked 100 years on April 14, was admitted to the University College Hospital, Ibadan, where he died during a surgery.

Following the recent bomb explosions that happened near a football viewing centre in Jos, Plateau State, the Lagos State Police Command on Friday, 13 June, 2014 released a statement on the state of security at such centres in Lagos.
The News Agency of Nigeria writes that the Spokesperson for the command, DSP Ngozi Braide said the command had put adequate security measures in place for all football viewing centres in Lagos State and its environs during and after the 2014 FIFA World Cup which kicked off on Thursday in Brazil.

17  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / PHOTOS: Sex Workers Storm Venues Of 2014 World Cup In Brazil on: 14-06-2014 02:16 PM


Brazilian prostitutes have been reported to be cashing in on the ongoing 2014 FIFA World Cup holding in Brazil.
Daily Mirror reports that around 4,000 girls are expected to be working in Rio’s Vila Mimosa offering football “specials” to fans from nations around the world.
It was gathered that the English fans are among those being specifically targeted by sex workers in Brazil’s biggest red light district as the competition gets under way on Thursday, 12 June, 2014.
Some reports suggest some women have been initiated into the sex trade specifically for the Mundial as fans descend on the city from around the globe.
Investigation carried out by different medial platforms indicate that the sex workers earn 60 Real – just €20 – for a half-hour of sex.
It was also gathered that many of the prostitutes are convinced they can secure a passport to a better life with fans from other countries.

One mother-of-two, Mel (20) told  a reporter that “I would love to meet a man from your country (England), I wish to broaden my outlook.
“I became a prostitute three weeks ago. I know there will be a lot more custom for the World Cup. I use the money to support my family, pay the rent, the bills.
"We have been waiting for the English, I cannot speak their language, but I will communicate with the way I know best.
“I will charge them the same rate for half an hour, 60 Real, but 100 for an hour because they have come a long way.”
Her cousin Suelen dressed in a white England shirt while looking for business. She said: “I want to meet all these lovely new men from Europe – especially London. Of course I want Brazil to win, and I know it is going to be busy.
“We have brought in some extra staff and there are decorations to attract the customers and street vendors.”

An estimated 600,000 people are set to descend upon Brazil for the celebrated sporting event. But for many soccer fans it’s not just the competition that’s drawing them in, it’s the accessibility of child prostitutes.
For those who are 18 years old or older, prostitution is completely legal in Brazil. But advocates say that an inordinate number of people selling sex on the streets are nowhere near legal age.
"These girls come from extreme poverty, a culture of social exclusion and a tradition of profound disrespect for women," Antonia Lima Sousa, state prosecutor, told CNN of the underage prostitutes.
Desperate girls, as young as 10 years old, with nowhere to turn see the World Cup as an auspicious money-making opportunity because of the influx of men to the area

No fewer than 328 supporters of the Super Eagles boarded a chartered aircraft, which departed to Brazil from the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos, on June 13, 2014, Friday.
The special tour for the 2014 FIFA World Cup was approved by the Nigerian Football Federation and its organiser was Wakanow Travel and Tours Limited.

The Managing Director of the travel and tourist agency, Mr Obinna Ekezie, revealed that the preference was given to the special flight for fans in order to reduce the stress caused by connecting flights from different international airports to Brazil.
Ekezie reminded that there are no direct flights to the venue of the Mundial. Therefore, the minimum time required to get there is more than 24-25 hours. It may be really hard for some fans to spend two days travelling. Therefore, a chartered aircraft, which took Super Eagles’ fans directly to Brazil, was the best solution.
The agency is also responsible for catering those who purchased the tour during their whole stay in the South American country.
The exclusive Nigerian World Cup Tour Operator also provides hotels, ground transportation and other logistic services.
Ekezie assured that his company’s staff is in Brazil and take care of such aspects as hiring translators and even cooking Nigeria food at a contracted restaurant. He added that all these things are done in order to ensure that the Super Eagles get the proper support by fans and would perform well at the tournament.
According to the website of the agency, the starting rate of the packages is N450,000. The customers would spend 5 nights in Sao Paulo June 21-26, 2014 or June 22-27, 2014.
At the same time, the top package (Comprehensive Signature Package) costs a whopping N3,077,000. The client would get 12 nights in Rio de Janeiro, June 14-16, 2014.
Match ticket application assistance is also offered by the company.
At the same time, an official governmental delegation, including Senate President David Mark and over a dozen of other dignitaries is also in Brazil to support Stephen Keshi and his boys.
The first match of the team in Group F, Iran vs Nigeria, kicks of on June 16, 2014, Monday, at 20:00 (Nigeria time).
