Women more satisfied with sex lives than men!
April 9, 2013 18:37:49 IST
A new study suggests that although men are generally happier than women, but the ladies are more satisfied with their sex lives.
The conclusions were drawn from a survey that found men had a brighter outlook due to earning more and fulfillment at work, among other factors.
However women were happier with more personal aspects of their lives, including health and sex.
Concerns about money were most likely to prevent both sexes feeling content, with 46 percent of people worried about their finances, the study found.

Treatment for grey hair possible
May 7, 2013 13:52:09 IST
Researchers have developed a remedy for grey hair and a skin condition called vitiligo, a study says.
In a research report published online in The FASEB Journal, people whose hair is turning grey develop massive oxidative stress via accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in hair follicles, which causes hair to bleach itself from the inside out.
The report shows that this massive accumulation of hydrogen peroxide can be remedied with a proprietary treatment developed by the researchers described as a topical UVB-activated compound called PC-KUS (a modified pseudocatalase).
The study also shows that the same treatment works for the skin condition vitiligo, reports Science Daily.
“It is beyond any doubt that the sudden loss of the inherited skin and localised hair colour can affect individuals in many fundamental ways,” said Karin U. Schallreuter.
Schallreuter is a study author from the Institute for Pigmentary Disorders in association with E.M. Arndt University of Greifswald, Germany, and the Centre for Skin Sciences, School of Life Sciences at the University of Bradford, Britain.
“The improvement of quality of life after total and even partial successful repigmentation has been documented,” Schallreuter said.

Tips for perfect skin
Radiant and flawless skin is what every woman wants. And here are some new skincare tips to get a beautiful complexion.
It’s known that drinking eight glasses of water a day, using SPF, and having a solid cleansing routine are essential, but the Association of Professional Hair and Makeup Artists reveals their top five tips for radiant skin, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Here are five tips that you may not have known about:
1) Flip your pillow case: When you sleep, you drool, perspire and sometimes sweat. This goes directly onto your pillow case and sheets, so it’s a must to keep your pillow clean.
To keep it clean, every two weeks you should vacuum it with a turbo brush. Then wash it on hot (or follow care instructions), shake the pillow out and let dry naturally in sunlight. This regular cleaning will help reduce the bacteria, and nasties in the pillow.
During the week, between washing the sheets, turn your pillowcase inside out and upside down, so that you are getting the side that your face hasn’t been touching. You will be able to notice that this makes a difference in getting clearer skin.
2) Steam up your shower: Going to the spa for a facial is one of the best things you can do for your skin. No matter what type of skin you have, steam is one of the spa’s secret tricks while giving you a facial. It opens your pores, and the gentle heat brings blood to the surface of your skin, which helps it naturally repair itself.
When you’re going to take a shower, turn the temperature hotter than normal, and shut the door for a few minutes. This allows the steam to build up. Once it has a good amount of steam, you have created your own steam room. Take your shower as normal, and over time, your skin will start glowing like never before.
3) Wash your face for longer: You know you should brush your teeth for two minutes, so give the same kind of attention to your skin. When you wash your face, do it for at least two minutes. This allows the cleanser to really do its job, and get into your pores.
4) Don’t touch your face: You touch your face more than you know. The National Health Institute of Bethesda found that people touched common objects an average of 3.3 times per hour and their faces 3.6 times per hour. If you get bacteria on your hands and then touch your face… the bacteria is now on your face. And bacteria causes imperfections.
Touching your face is a harder thing to stop doing than you think, as it happens naturally. How often do you move your hair out of your face? How often do your rub your eyes, or hold your hand up to your face when you sneeze? But the pro tip here is to make a concerted effort to not touch your face and use anti-bacterial gel or wipes to kill all the nasties.
5) Keep your hair clean, and out of your face: Your hair, especially if you have fringe, can lead to spots. The natural oils in your hair can build up and then transfer onto your face. If you use products on your hair, this can also lead to imperfections.
You’re not going to change your hairstyle or stop using products. So the solution is two-fold. First, when you’re at home, push your hair behind your ears, get your fringe off your forehead, and ponytails are your new best friend.
The second is to use products on your hair that will be better for your skin, especially like organic, natural products, as these tend to be gentler on your skin.

Patience Jonathan opens up on rift with Amaechi
Contrary to her earlier denials of
involvement in the political crisis rocking Rivers State, wife of
President Goodluck Jonathan, Patience, on Wednesday opened up on the
matter.
She told 16 bishops from the
South-South, who visited her at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, that her
misunderstanding with Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, started
about four years ago in Anyugubiri in Okrika when she appealed to him
to engage her people in dialogue instead of demolishing a part of
their community.
Mrs. Jonathan said the governor, whom
she described as “hot tempered,” did not only ignore her advice, he
went a step further by sacking the chairman of the local government
for holding a reception in her honour.
According to her, Amaechi did not only stop at those, he imposed a curfew on the community, which is where she hails from.
She said all her pleas with the governor to lift the curfew fell on deaf ears.
Although the President’s wife told the
visiting bishops that she had since committed the Rivers crisis to
God, she decided to open up for the first time on it so that they
could pray to God to touch Amaechi’s heart.
She said, “Rivers State issue is one
thing I have committed to prayer because I believe there is nothing God
cannot do. God restored me and I will do His work without the fear of
man. The truth will always remain the truth and what God ordains must
come to pass and so Rivers issue is something we have handed over to
God.
“This matter started four years ago at
Anyugubiri in Okrika when I begged him not to demolish a part of Okrika
but that he should dialogue first with the people. After that incident,
he called the chairman of Okrika Local Government and sacked him for
holding a reception in our honour; that boy was the first victim.
“He also put my people under curfew for
nine months. I called him and pleaded with him but he refused. Then I
began to hear all sorts of propaganda in the media against me; this is
not the way.
“I have never spoken about this issue
but as men of God, I believe you will say the truth always because there
are a lot of conflicting interests; some will hear one thing and say
the exact opposite.
“I also want you to know the genesis of
this problem and pray that God touches Amaechi’s heart as per his hot
temper because when two elephants fight, it is the grass that suffers.’’
Mrs. Jonathan urged the governor to sheathe the sword and allow peace to reign in the state.
She said as her son, she could not be fighting the governor.
She also urged the governor to avoid being used by outsiders to fight “his own blood.”
She added, “I appeal to Amaechi to
sheathe his sword so that we can defend our state and this country with
love, unity, patriotism and truth at all time.
“Hebrews 12:14 urges us to embrace peace
with all men without which, we cannot see God. Amaechi is my son, I
cannot fight him and I cannot kill him. He shouldn’t be used by
outsiders against his own blood because this seat is vanity.
“One day, no matter how long it takes,
we will leave this seat. Power is not forever. This seat is vanity,
others sat here and left, so one day I will also leave and we will meet
at home; so why should I fight him?
“Let’s take it easy and face issues.
Let’s stop magnifying lies; we must respect our leaders and people in
authority. Let’s give peace a chance.”
Earlier, the leader of the delegation,
Bishop God-Do-Well Awomapara, said they decided to visit the wife of
the President to unravel the mysteries surrounding the crisis in the
state and mediate in order to find a lasting solution to it.
“Our visit is significant in view of
emerging situations in our region. We are on a quest to unravel the
mysteries surrounding the Rivers issue and mediate where necessary,” he
said.
Mrs. Jonathan’s spokesman, Mr. Ayo
Osinlu, later issued a statement in which she again called on all
those involved in the crisis to sheathe their swords and find ways to
restore peace to the state.
The statement reads in part, “Dame
Jonathan particularly appealed to Governor Amaechi to fly the olive
branch, and resist being used by outsiders against his own people.
“While giving an insight into the
genesis of the crisis in the state, she reiterated the need for the
warring factions to employ dialogue as a means of resolving the
contending issues amicably.
“The First Lady urged those who are
crying more than the bereaved to stop magnifying the misunderstanding,
while reiterating that Governor Amaechi and Mr. Nyeson Wike (Minister
of State for Education) remain her sons, brothers and kinsmen, and would
do anything to protect both of them.
Reacting, the State Commissioner for
Information and Communications, Mrs. Ibim Semenitari, said the governor
did not demolish the houses around a school in Angubiri, Okirika, as
advised by Mrs. Jonathan.
Semenitari, who recalled what happened
in Okirika when the President’s wife visited, said the school shown to
Mrs. Jonathan by the governor had no playground, adding that a
playground and other facilities could only be provided if some houses
around the school were demolished.
“The First Lady advised against it and
the governor did not demolish the houses. The school is still there
without a playground. This issue happened a long time ago. What I don’t
understand is that she still bears that in mind,” the commissioner
added.
On the allegation that Amaechi imposed a
nine-month curfew on the people of Okrika, Semenitari disagreed with
Mrs. Jonathan, saying, “Even the First Lady had said several times that
one of the achievements of the governor was that he (Amaechi) brought
peace to Okrika and that people could sleep with both eyes closed.”
On her description of Amaechi as
hot-tempered, the commissioner pointed out that she could not say
anything about it since it was the President’s wife’s personal opinion.
Semenitari, however, expressed
satisfaction with Mrs. Jonathan’s warning to those using her name to
forment trouble to desist from such act.
“What I think is good to hear is that
she has no problem with the governor (Amaechi) and that those using her
name to cause crisis will stop doing so,” the commissioner stressed.
“She expressed her commitment to
ensuring that peace returns to Rivers State soon, stating that as the
President of African First Ladies Peace Mission, her desire is to have
peace in her home base.”
Also, the state government has raised
the alarm over a strange posting of policemen on Wednesday to the
Government House in Port Harcourt and the Governor’s Lodge in Asokoro,
Abuja.
Secretary to the State Government, Mr. George Feyii, in a statement, said the postings were done without notification.
He claimed that security operatives,
whose identities were unknown, said they got a directive to remain at
the gate of the governor’s lodge.
Feyii explained that it was aware that
an official of a state, especially the governor, had the right to choose
the security personnel he could entrust his safety.
The statement reads, “The Rivers State
Government notes with distress, what is now an apparent attack on the
person of Governor Amaechi. This (Wednesday) morning, two policemen,
one of who is Inspector Bawa, reported to the Rivers State Governor’s
Lodge at Justice Mohammed Bello Street, Asokoro, FCT Abuja.
“They claimed to have been posted by
Nigeria Police Force Headquarters to monitor the Rivers State Governor’s
Lodge. Earlier, four intelligence officers had been posted to the
Government House in Port Harcourt by the Rivers State Police Command.
“These postings were done without any
notification or deference to Governor Amaechi. We are aware that on
issues of personal safety, an official reserves the right to pick the
security personnel to whom he or she may entrust their safety. This is
more so in the case of a state governor.
“The policemen this (Wednesday) morning
said that they had directives to remain at the gate of the Rivers State
Governor’s lodge. Not only is the Rivers State Government uncertain of
the true identity of these gentlemen, we are worried as to the true
intent behind this latest posting.”
He recalled that events around the
governor in recent times had been suggestive of deliberate nonchalance,
adding that the situation had continued even with an appeal to the
highest authorities.
“In recent times, events in Rivers
State and especially around Governor Amaechi have been suggestive of
deliberate nonchalance at best and complicity at worst in the security
breaches that have occurred. This trend has continued despite a
passionate appeal to the highest levels of authorities. We are worried
that we can no longer guarantee the safety of Governor Amaechi and wish
to reiterate our call on all relevant authorities to ensure his
safety and the peace and security of everyone in Rivers State,” the
statement added.

It nearly turned an embarrassing moment on 13 July when Dancehall music star, Timaya, blasted on-air personality, JJ of Blaze FM, Nnewi, Anambra State, for cutting him off during a live radio chat.
Timaya, who was part of the star acts in the industrial town for the sixth-leg of Star Music Trek, was riled that he was rushed off a question one time too many by JJ and made his feelings known right on air.
“Why do you journalists (OAPs) always cut people off? You ask one question and won’t allow people to ‘land’ before asking another,” he snapped at the show host.
The well-composed broadcaster just took it in his stride and graciously allowed the artiste to have the ‘mic’, leading to 15 minutes of hilarious moment as the self-styled Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa took his fans on a quick rundown of Star Music Trek’s 10-City concert.
Inspired by the tumultuous crowd at the Beverly Hills Resort venue of the concert later in the evening, Timaya joined other multi-talented acts including M.I, Kcee, JMartins, Kas and Crystals, the 2012 Star Quest winners, to put up a five-star show that will linger in the minds of the town music lovers for a long time to come.
Timaya’s act, reminiscent of his barefoot performances during the fifth leg of the concert in Aba, once again chose to do away with his shoes to thrill fans to a 45-minute performance that kept fans dancing in the rain even after he left the stage
