Hopelessly In Love with you

Before I met you,
I felt that I couldn't love anyone anymore,
That nobody would be able to fill the void in my heart,
But that all changed when I met you...
Then I came to realize you were always on my mind.
You're funny and sweet,
You make me laugh and smile,
You take away all my anger and sadness,
You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen,
More beautiful than any flower that I have ever seen,
You made me weak when I talked to you,
Then I started to write poems about you,
Now, I have come to realize that I am Hopelessly in love with you.

I love your lips when they’re wet with ONLY


And red with a wild desire;
I love your eyes when the lovelight lies
Lit with a passionate fire.
I love your arms when the warm white flesh
Touches mine in a fond embrace;
I love your hair when the strands enmesh
Your kisses against my face.

Not for me the cold, calm kiss
Of a virgin’s bloodless love;
Not for me the saint’s white bliss,
Nor the heart of a spotless dove.
But give me the love that so freely gives
And laughs at the whole world’s blame,
With your body so young and warm in my arms,
It sets my poor heart aflame.

So kiss me sweet with your warm wet mouth,
Still fragrant with ruby wine,
And say with a fervor born of the South
That your body and soul are mine.
Clasp me close in your warm young arms,
While the pale stars shine above,
And we’ll live our whole young lives away
In the joys of a living love.

Remember when we first did meet, 
our hearts rejoiced and skipped a beat.
Remember our first kiss goodnight, 
the hug we shared that summer's night.

Remember when we stroll 
and all our dreams within our reach.
Remember how we used to be 
when I had you and you had me.

Remember when we used to talk, 
when we held hands and took long walks.
Remember how we spent our days 
in warm sunshine and in the rain.

Remember when our one desire 
was take a chance and ignite the fire.
Remember the times that made our hearts melt 
and all of the passion and desire that we felt.

Remember when you looked at me 
and saw the one you love and need.
Remember when you reached for me 
and knew that we were meant to be.

Remember when our love was new. 
Remember the day we both said, "I do."
Remember the journey we started together. 
Remember our love was always forever.

Remember the promise we made together, 
to love and to cherish and to care for each other.
Remember the promise in good times and in bad 
and to make each one happy rather than sad.

Remember when you held our child 
and rocked the baby when I grew tired.
Remember the treasured times 
like these when love grew into family.

Remember when the world was bright, 
when we would laugh and hold on tight.
Remember when our hearts were broken, 
when times were tough and words unspoken.

NEVER FORGET ME
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU MY ONE AND ONLY

Every 6th of September is made for you

signed
Your Love

Americans’ debt level notched another record-high in the second-quarter on the back of modest rises in mortgage, auto and credit-card-debt where delinquencies jumped.


The media reported on Wednesday that total U.S. household debt was 12.84 trillion dollars in the three months to June, up 552 billion dollars from a year ago, according to a Federal Reserve Bank of New York report published on Tuesday.

The proportion of overall debt that was delinquent, at 4.8 per cent was on par with the previous quarter.

However, a red flag was raised over the transitions of credit card balances into delinquency which the New York Fed said “ticked up notably.”

Loosening lending standards have allowed borrowers with lower credit scores to access credit cards, Andrew Haughwout, an in-house economist, said in the report.

“The current state of credit card delinquency flows can be an early indicator of future trends and we will closely monitor the degree to which this uptick is predictive of further consumer distress,” he said.

Total US indebtedness is about 14 per cent above the trough of household deleveraging brought on by the 2007-2009 financial crises and deep recession, a pull-back that interrupted what had been a 63-year upward trend.

Mortgage debt was 8.69 trillion dollars in the second quarter, up 329 billion dollars from last year, the report said.

Student loan debt was 1.34 trillion dollars, up 85 billion dollars, while auto loan debt came in at 1.19 trillion dollars, up 55billion dollars. (Reuters/NAN)

Emeka Ojukwu, first son of the late Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, has confirmed that his father met President Muhammadu Buhari in 2003.


Ojukwu said this in reaction to reports which quoted him as saying Buhari’s claims of meeting his father was false.

Buhari in a national broadcast on Monday stated that he and Ojuwku agreed that Nigeria must remain one.

Shortly after the broadcast, there were different reports on social media, with some accusing the president of fabricating that part of his speech.

But while dismissing those reports, Ojukwu’s son said if he wanted to comment on a matter, there would be no ambiguity in it.

“It has been brought to my attention that there is an article making the rounds on social media attributed to me refuting the remarks of Mr President concerning his relationship and discussions with my late father,” the statement read.

“Let me lend my voice to those of the rest of my fellow countrymen and welcome Mr President back home.

“Let me state the following categorically; firstly, that I made no such comments to anybody, and secondly that I am aware that his excellency’s comments were indeed factual.

“I have noticed a disturbing trend recently of fake news being attributed to me on social media. I don’t know who is behind it or what their motivation might be, but let me assure you that any time I feel the need to comment publicly on any matter, I will not do so via some anonymous email or anything of the like, rather be rest assured that there will be no ambiguity whatsoever as to whether the comments came from me.”

When my partner kept going on and on about wanting a threesome I finally gave in, but now it’s left me feeling dirty. I loved that man. I gave up everything to be with him — my home, my family and my marriage.


I met him two years ago when he came to fit a new sink in our kitchen. He said he could do other work round the house so he came back several times to do small jobs. He was very flirty and one afternoon we had s*x.

It made me feel wanted and we started a passionate affair. Before long he asked me to leave my husband, promising he would treat me right. I am 28 now, he is 34.

I thought I had found happiness at last. My husband was controlling and men have never treated me well.

A family friend sexually abused me when I was a child. I never told anyone because everybody liked him and I thought nobody would believe me.

Then all my boyfriends cheated on me. Even my husband was a player. Things were great with my new partner at first but then he started asking me to have a threesome. I told him no but he said that I would do it if I loved him.

He never stopped going on about it and I eventually agreed.

He fixed it up and he gave me a drink and diazepam beforehand, to relax me. The other man was a mate of his. It was horrible and I was in bits afterwards. He changed towards me after that. He started coming home late and treating me like rubbish. One night I looked on his phone while he was asleep and found that he was cheating on me with another woman.

I confronted him and he said I was crazy and walked out, saying he did not want to be with me now. He took everything from me and left me like I was nothing, but I just cannot seem to move on.

Barcelona is close to signing Angel Di Maria from PSG for €50 million.


Spanish newspaper Sport says that the deal to bring in the former Real Madrid star to the Camp Nou is almost done.
 
Barcelona is yet to find Neymar’s replacement after the Brazilian left on a world record deal to PSG.

Lionel Messi has just one year remaining on his contract and is yet to sign a new deal with reports suggesting he may want to seek exit from the club.

Buying Di Maria could help convince the Argentina captain to finally put pen to paper on an extension.

PSG is in need of funds from sales to balance the books for Financial Fair Play after parting with €222 million to bring Neymar to the French capital.

Indonesia-based Osaze Odemwingie has not ruled out a return to European football when the Asian country’s Premier League season ends in November.


The 36-year-old, who has been in fine form since joining Madura United in April, is also eyeing a return to the Super Eagles, after being in football’s international wilderness for three years.

“I’m still in the game. In November, the season ends in Indonesia.  I hope to return to Europe and finish the game, and then get a little chance to enter the national team,”Osaze said in an interview with Sport.ru.

Osaze last played for the Eagles at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, where he scored the winner against Bosnia. Now, he’s hoping to play in his third World Cup in Russia next year.

Top Eagles stars Mikel Obi, Odion Ighalo, Brown Ideye, Obafemi Martins, Anthony Ujah and several others play in the lucrative Chinese league,and the ex-West Brom ace is hoping Gernot Rohr takes a look at his goal scoring heroics in Indonesia.

“I do not really believe it, but it is possible. Currently the majority of prospective players in the Nigerian national team play in Asia, in China. Maybe I (need to) pay attention to the coach. I will try.”

The former Lokomotiv Moscow man says he has also not ruled out a return to Russia and could join ex-Tottenham Hotspur star Roman Pavlyuchenko at Ararat Moscow, a team that represent the Armenian diaspora in Russia.

“I will also consider this option. I want to play in Moscow, where my mother lives. But there is no offer for this option yet. In principle, my door is not closed to any country, especially to (clubs in) Russia,” he added.

On his experience playing in Indonesia, Osaze added, “When I drive here, I do not know what’s going to happen, but generally I’m happy with everything. Of course, in terms of infrastructure, there’s much to do, though I am not complaining.

“Every day we went through it with excitement (at Madura), we played well and I scored in almost every game and this feeling is the most important for me because I will miss it after my career.”

The Ballon d'Or holder cut into the area from the left before curling the ball into the top corner in a 2-1 friendly win at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday.


Ronaldo, 32, is still suspended for three more competitive games after being sent off and shoving the referee in the first leg of the Supercopa de Espana against Barcelona earlier this month.

"That's what this man is capable of, we're happy to have him here," Zidane told Real Madrid TV.

"We put in a disciplined display and made a good start. I'm happy because the fans came out in their numbers and that was very important for us.

"We achieved what we wanted to, the trophy remains here and we all head home happy."

The Spanish champions next face Valencia in La Liga on Sunday, having opened their campaign by winning the UEFA Super Cup, Supercopa de Espana and their first league outing.

'Zizou' added: "We got what we were hoping for, gave those players who hadn't had much of a chance some minutes and that's what these games are for.

"[Dani] Ceballos, Marcos [Llorente], Borja [Mayoral], Cristiano all got some game time.

"Now we have to rest up and tomorrow we'll start thinking about our LaLiga game against Valencia [on Sunday], which is coming around quickly."

 Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, has said he will not be running for Nigeria’s presidency in 2019 general elections or in the near future.

According to Bloomberg Markets Magazine, Dangote declared that he ws not cut out for politics, stressing that he was more comfortable with business.

He, however, said there was need for cooperation with politicians.

He told the magazine: “No, I’m not interested in active politics. There’s quite a lot we can do from the business side. I enjoy a lot of what I am doing and I also love my freedom and I don’t have too much.

“The little (freedom) I have, politics would take away. I am not ready to give that up. There are businessmen who are interested in politics. I’m not one of them.

“Well, in Africa, yes, I do think you need politicians. But at the same time, we cannot get things right unless there is good cooperation between politicians and businessmen. It’s a win-win. When you look at it today, in Nigeria, over 85 per cent of the GDP is from the private sector.”

On whether he is under pressure to make political donations, he said: “Well, you know the political donation depends on who you are dealing with and who you are donating money to. But the issue is we don’t go and give people in politics money for favours.

“I’ve told presidents of countries, ‘I’m a contractor, I’m running a business, I don’t need any favours.’

“And really, when you look at it today, in all our businesses, we don’t need any favour. We’ve done our numbers. We think this business will work and we don’t need government support.”

Senator representing Ebonyi North, Sam Egwu, on Friday urged the Federal Government to find a way of resolving the current industrial action embarked on by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU.
The former Ebonyi State Governor made the appeal while addressing journalists at Umuebe, in Ezzamgbo, Ohaukwu Local Government Area of the state.
Egwu noted that incessant strikes by lecturers were undermining the credibility of graduates produced by universities in the country.
Urging both ASUU and government to find a lasting solution to the impasse, the onetime Minister of Education said both students and parents were seriously affected.
The lawmaker stated that in spite of the current recession, the federal government should show considerable commitment toward implementing the 2013 Memorandum of Understanding entered with ASUU.
He said, “The spate of strike actions in the nation’s institutions of higher learning is disturbing.
“A common ground should be explored by both FG and ASUU with a view to resolving all contending issues leading to strike.
“The 2009 ASUU/FG agreement was signed under my tenure as the minister of education.
“We signed the agreement because we believed its implementation will help improve the standard and quality of university education in the country.
“What I am saying is that the present administration should show considerable goodwill in commencing the implementation of the agreement.
“The country is facing some difficult economic challenges in view of the current recession.
“However, it should equally consider the conditions of the lecturers, fate of the Nigerian universities and the students.
“Let the government start from somewhere; it may not implement 100 per cent of the agreement at once, but it must show considerable commitment.
“ASUU on its part should show patriotism and stop adopting strike action as the last option for pushing forward its demand.
“The two parties must reach a compromise anchored on constructive dialogue and engagement to steer through and permanently end the incessant universities strike in Nigeria.’’

The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the cut-off marks for Nigerian tertiary institutions while also lifting the ban for post UTME examination.


Premium Times reports that these decisions were taken at the 2017 Combined Policy Meetings on Admissions into Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria which ended on Tuesday, August 22.

Minimum cut-off marks for tertiary institutions are:

Universities were pegged at 120

Polytechnics and colleges of education were pegged at 100

Innovative enterprising institutes was pegged at 110

Institutions were however allowed to raise their cut-off marks above JAMB’s stipulation.

It was also agreed that admissions into public degree awarding institutions for the 2017 UTME examination will end on January 15, 2018 while private institutions will end theirs on January 31, 2018.

It was also revealed that decisions on first choice candidates by universities will be expected to be complete October 15 and second choice candidates will end on December 15.

The rest of the students seeking admission will be available for other institutions till the January closing dates.

Ishaq Oloyede who is the registrar of JAMB said a Central Admission Processing System (CAPS) will be used to streamline admission processes among institutions based on challenges associated with the former approach.

He said: “All over the world, there is agitation for dynamic educational policy,” he said. “JAMB only admits for National Diploma, not Higher National Diploma; so why should we use the same requirement for ND and BSC, that is unreasonable parity.”

“We should not be sentimental in fixing our cut off mark; we need not over-dramatise issue of cut off mark.”

He noted that the number of those seeking admission to study agriculture had dropped while those for medicine and health science rose.

He also spoke about illegal admissions saying the new process allows the registrar to approve all candidates.

“About 17,160 students were admitted without JAMB across institutions in Nigeria.”

Recall that Gurusbest previously reported that the post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (post-UTME) conducted for candidates seeking admission into higher institution was scrapped by the Federal Government.

The Federal Government explained that all tertiary institutions were at liberty to conduct screening for candidates seeking admission into any school.

CALABAR—TWO persons, suspected to have smuggled 145 poisonous snakes and other tropical rainforest reptiles from Cameroon to Nigeria, have disappeared from the custody of the Nigerian Agricultural and Quarantine Agency in Calabar, the office they were handed over to by the Nigerian Customs Service along with their consignment.


Mr. Ibrahim Jubril, the Minister of State for Environment, who visited the office weekend, to handover the reptiles to the University of Uyo for research, was told by Sunday Uket, the Director of the agency that “just two persons were brought here and we have no clue where they have disappeared to.”

The Minister, who said he was surprised and unhappy with the agency’s poor handling of the situation, noted that the smugglers would have been a veritable source of information on where they got the reptiles, where they were taking them to and for what purpose.

Speaking while handing over the reptiles to the University of Uyo represen-tatives, Mr. Jubril said the importers wanted to use Nigeria as transit point for smuggling the items to Rotterdam and Luxemburg.

Dr. Edem Eniang of the Department of Forestry and Natural Environment Management, a snake expert who took delivery of three boxes, said the snakes were professionally packaged for export and that the venom in African mambas is the best and the most sought after in Europe for the treatment of stroke and high blood pressure.

He added that the snakes will be separated and those still alive will be trained in a snake farm and then milked for their venom to be used for scientific research by the university.
