An House Of Representative Member Dies In Abuja During Sex Rump With A Female Banker
This is a clear danger signal to all those big men who are good in sleeping with their bank account officers, in the name of "thank you for banking with us".

Miss Philippines Crowned Miss World 2013
Miss Philippines (Megan Young)
wept uncontrollably as she was crowned 2013 Miss World On Saturday in Bali,
Near Jakarta, Indonesia.
The 23 years old Ms Young who was
wearing a pearl white gown promised to be ''The Best Miss World ever'' in front
of a cheering crowed which included many Filipinos in the heavily armed police
and water cannons.
The final was moved to Bali, where
there is little hardline influence, from its original venue just outside the
capital Jakarta after thousands of protesters took to the streets across the
world's most populous Muslim-majority country.
Denouncing the pageant as a
"whore contest" and "pornography", the demonstrators
pressured authorities into shifting the venue, the latest sign of the growing
influence of country's hardline fringe.
Hundreds of police were deployed
across Bali for Saturday's final, which saw 127 contestants clad in stilettos
and shimmering gowns take to the stage in the Nusa Dua resort, southern Bali.

Micheal Jackson: Four years after, and the King of Pop still lives on

FOUR years ago on June 25, 2009, a music legend died. His name was Michael Joseph Jackson. Today, even in death, the most awarded artiste on earth, Michael Jackson a.k.a MJ.
Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American singer-songwriter, dancer, businessman and philanthropist. Often referred to as the “King of Pop”, or by his initials MJ, Jackson is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time by Guinness World Records. His contributions to music, dance, and fashion, along with his publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades.
The eighth child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene along with his brothers as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1964, and began his solo career in 1971. In the early 1980s, Jackson became the dominant figure in popular music. The music videos for his songs, including those of “Beat It,” “Billie Jean,” and “Thriller,” were credited with breaking down racial barriers and transforming the medium into an art form and promotional tool. The popularity of these videos helped to bring the then relatively new television channel MTV to fame. With videos such as “Black or White” and “Scream” he continued to innovate the medium throughout the 1990s, as well as forging a reputation as a touring solo artist. Through stage and video performances, Jackson popularised a number of complicated dance techniques, such as the robot, and the moonwalk, to which he gave the name. His distinctive sound and style has influenced numerous hip hop, post-disco, contemporary R&B, pop, and rock artists. Read the rest HERE>>>
