6 Reasons Bad Girls Get Married To Good Guys
Ever wondered why bad girls get good guys? Take a
look at this. Bad girls as seen by most people in the
society are girls who are excessively social.
They are brave, outgoing and daring. They seem to
enjoy life to the fullest while partying hard. These are
some of the girls whose lives revolve round being in
clubs and never missing a happening event in the
society. They know the most talked about people and
are able to identify the rich and wealthy guys.
Below are some insights as to why the bad girls get
hooked to the good guys.
Bad girls are smart
These girls are outgoing ladies who know how to
mingle. They are ‘not dulling’ in the real sense of the
word. They are most times beautiful ladies who are
fashionistas and pull attraction everywhere they step
into. They understand that most of the good men out
there have careers and could be wealthy. And to ease
off the built up tension of work and other life issues,
they pa$$ out time in the clubs and bars. The good
girls are hardly found in this kind of setting.
Force of attraction
Basic knowledge of Physics could be likened to real life
situation here. Just like when objects that are
electrically neutral with equal amounts of neutrons
(negative charge) and protons (positive charge)
connect when in close proximity, two individuals with
different life styles bond too. Just as the protons could
become negatively charged and the neutrons positively
charged, the bad girl and the good guy would influence
each other until they reach equilibrium. They become
perfect for each other.
More experienced
The bad girls are often ‘long legged’. They seem to
have been everywhere and have heard things that could
guide them in their sojourn in life. They know things the
good girls don’t and have firsthand experience of
places. They have the ability to place the men who
approach them and identify the exceptionally good ones
among them. They know the players and understand
the ‘no-time-to-waste-men’. They recognise potentials in
the men once they see them and go extra miles to keep
the men attracted to them.
$exual satisfaction
Like most good girls who keep their legs closed, some
bad girls keep theirs even closer. They taunt the men
until they have built up a $exual tension in them.
However, most of the bad girls are wild. They seem to
explore always and know how to please the men. They
could take men to different pleasurable heights before
pushing them over the edge. They leave the guys in
cloud nine at the end of the whole thing. Every guy
wants a woman that would drive him wild in bed and
give him an unforgettable time. So the bad girl is
picked over the good ones here.
Relativity
One man’s meat is another man’s poison, they say.
This explains why some men would deliberately choose
a bad girl over a good girl even when they know about
their escapades. Some bad girls after settling down with
good men become submissive and trade their old habits
for good ones. Men’s choice can’t be fully ascertained
as one could never be sure of the magnetic force
between them and the bad girls.
Compulsory retirement
There’s time for everything. The bad girls can’t remain
bad forever. They get tired of their old ways at certain
points in time. They calm down and mellow when they
have seen it all. This doesn’t make them less desirable,
they remain piping hot because they maintain their
dress sense and good looks. In fact, they become
better people with improved mannerism and are able to
live responsibly after.

Top 10 Love Songs For Married Couples
1. Few bands so brilliantly mix the soul of a br@$$
section and the sounds of rock guitar as does Chicago.
“Alive Again,” a lively track from their 1978 album
Hot Streets, features the talents of guitarist Donnie
Dacus. With the lyrics, “All the empty yesterdays have
disappeared, now that you have filled my life with love,”
the feeling does come that when the right one comes
along, life is indeed better.
2. The spirited “More,” recorded in 1964 by the
legendary Bobby Darin for his
Hello Dolly to Goodbye Charliealbum is a masterful
blend of pop, jazz and big band swing. Talking about a
person so deeply in love that their only desire is to “…
love you more each day.”
3. Quite possibly one of the greatest singer/songwriters
of all time, Dan Foglebergisin a league all his own. The
gorgeous “Believe In Me,” from his brilliant 1984
Windows and Wallsrelease has one line that touches the
heart perfectly, “Those other loves that came before,
mean nothing to me any more…”
4. From my daughter Rachel came the idea to include
this song. After a listen, I learned why — there are
times a couple just needs to hold one another and let
the world around them do what it will. The mesmerizing
“Chasing Cars,” from Snow Patrol’s 2006 extraordinary
CD
Eyes Open,is a flawless song that drives the message
home: “If I just lay here, would you lay with me and just
forget the world…?” This track is beyond good.
5. “Grow Old With Me,” a tender song penned from a
Robert Browning poem, is one of the final songs
recorded by John Lennon and can be heard on his
posthumous 1984 CD,
Milk and Honey.”Grow old with me, the best is yet to
be….” Little more needs to be said.
6. “Still The One,” a full of life number from Orleans
1976
Waking and Dreamingrelease tells the story of a couple
pa$$ionately in love. From their first kiss to a spouse’s
final breath, there’s that look that tells you even after
everything a married couple go through, “that even after
all these years, you’re still the one I want whispering in
my ear…”
7. Marriage isn’t easy – there will be tough times, but if
there is love, and forgiveness, there are few things that
a couple can’t overcome. From Bruce “The Boss”
Springsteen’s 1992
Lucky Town release comes the gentle “If I Should Fall
Behind,” with the excellent lyrics “We’ll help each other,
stay in stride…”
8. In the world of music there is Stevie Wonder, and
then, it seems, there is everyone else. “You And I,”
from his 1972
Talking Book album, is so touching that while listening
to it, time seems to stop: “I have found strength in
you…you and I can conquer the world…” the lyrics go,
and it is a wish this song would go on forever.
9. The beautiful Vanessa Williams sings about a
marriage’s pure love on “The Sweetest Days,” a
sensational song from her 1994 CD of the same name.
“All the while, life is rushing past us. These are the
days, the sweetest days we’ll know…” Vanessa sings,
and she sings it perfectly.
10. In “And I Always Will,” Beach Boys’ Al Jardine sings,
“Without you, I just can’t go on… I dedicate my whole
life to loving you…” from his 2010 solo project
A Postcard From California. The most beautiful of love
songs, it tells how a man, when looking back over his
life with his wife, would do it all over again.
3 things that can make your Power bank explode
Why would a power bank
all of a sudden explode? You guys requested we do a
piece on why power banks explode, my curious mind
was also yearning to learn this too. So I hereby present
to you: The likely causes of a power bank explosion.
1.) Poor Battery Quality
Batteries are the major components of power banks,
infact that’s the most expensive part when you try to
cost it individually. Most of the power banks in the
market are made from Lithium-ion or Lithium-Polymer
batteries, though the former is a cheaper option.
Manufacturers, (in a bid to keep prices down) tend to
use the Lithium- ion batteries to save costs. In worst
case scenarios, some manufacturers go to the extent
of using recycled batteries. This increases the chances
or likeliness of explosion at a later time.
2.) Wrong Circuit Design:
It doesn’t just end with the quality of battery. The
internal circuit design of a power bank is another likely
cause of explosion. For a power bank a good circuit
design entails the following :
* Power protection: A well made power bank should have
power protection. This is a mechanism that ensures that
the battery stops charging once it has reached full
capacity.
* Short circuit control: A good power bank should have
it’s circuit fully insulated to prevent short circuit. (Short
circuit means touching of wires)
* Temperature control: The ideal power bank should have
a kind of temperature control such that once it hits a
particular temperature, it shuts down to cool off.
If one or more of these are not built into the power
bank, the chances of a likely explosion in the future are
high.
3.) Improper or Wrong Usage
What can cause a power bank to explode could be
traced to us – the users. How do you handle your
power banks? Exposing power banks to high
temperatures or humidity can lead to what can cause
explosion . Overcharging of power banks is bad
practice. Especially when it doesn’t have power
protection like we explained above. Other bad practices
include spilling water on it or leaving it near a heated
area, like under the sun.
So now you know the likely causes of a power bank
explosion. Meanwhile be careful of dirt cheap power
banks, also do not use power banks in your pockets.
Cheers.

O.M.G!!! Dog Eats Up 4-Month-Old Baby In Delta State
Tragedy struck on Friday in Asaba, Delta State, when a 37-year-old
house wife, Maureen Akowe, a graduate of sociology from the state-
owned university allegedly lost her four month-old baby to her dog.
It was gathered that the four- month-old baby was driven in the mother's
car alongside the dog to a popular supermarket along Okpanam Road,
Asaba, where the house wife had gone for shopping for the baby's
upkeep.
Report says the unsuspecting nursing mother left the baby, a nanny and
the dog inside the car and wound down the windows to allow ventilation
into the car before moving into the supermarket.
LEADERSHIP Sunday gathered from witnesses that while she was busy
shopping, the dog allegedly made straight for the little baby to eat her up
while the nanny screamed for help but all to no avail.
The shouts by the nanny attracted two security personnel at the
supermarket to the car but by which time the baby, identified as
Chinonso, had been bitten severally on the stomach by the dog, leaving
the baby in a pool of blood.
The dog had gone wild and was barking menacingly to scare onlooker by
the time the baby's mother got wind of the development and rushed to
the scene.
The baby was taken to a nearby hospital along Nnebisi Road, but it was
too late by the time they got to the hospital as the baby, the woman's
first child, had already died.
The efforts of the helpers who had wanted to rescue the little baby failed
as the baby gave up the ghost before getting to the hospital.
Speaking with the nanny who claimed to have hailed from one of the
states in the eastern part of the country and did not want her name in the
print said "Madam carry the dog and baby and asked us to stay inside the
car, because the dog was to be treated at the veterinary, suddenly I saw
the dog moving closer to the baby and I shouted for help when the dog
opened its teeth and I ran out of the car to call madam but she did not
come on time".
Family sources said that the house wife had been married for 3 years
without a baby before she took in for the baby that was delivered and
named Chinonso.
In a swift reaction, the husband of the woman amidst tears, and did not
want his name on the print said "my wife said it is the devil's work and
the devil's work will take her out of my house, I have warned her about
the dog when I notice that the dog had been behaving funny.
She still kept carrying the dog claiming that she was going to give
treatment to the dog. This is how the devil had ruined her".

Caught Red-handed: NDLEA Arrests Man With N48m Cash, Another With 79 Bags Of Weed In Abuja
The anti-narcotic officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement
Agency (NDLEA), who were on a routine patrol on Monday along the
Abaji-Abuja Expressway, had arrested one John Okafor for being in
possession of N48m cash.
GIDINAIJA gathered that the 25-year-old man was reportedly one of the
passengers of a commercial bus coming from Onitsha, Anambra State.
Following his arrest, Okafor maintained that the money belonged to an
unidentified Bureau de Change firm in Onitsha. He claimed he was an
employee of the firm and he was heading for the foreign exchange
market in the Federal Capital Territory to convert the sum to dollars
when he was arrested.
"I work for a Bureau de Change in Onitsha. I was asked to purchase
dollars at the foreign exchange market in Abuja with the money. When
we got to Abaji, our vehicle was searched and the money was found.
That is all I know."
Reports also reveal that that a drug dealer, Chukuka Ugbai, was arrested
with 79 bags of weed, confirmed to have tested positive for cannabis, in
Bako village in the Kwali Area Council, Abuja during the same patrol.
The drug which weighed 817 kilogrammes was found in his warehouse.
Ugbai had allegedly owned up to being an illicit drug dealer but
expressed shock at how the NDLEA operatives were able to trail him to
his residence.
He said, "I sell cannabis to take care of my family and pay my children's
school fees. I was not lucky enough because I don't know how they
detected my cannabis warehouse. The officers found 79 bags of cannabis
in my store."
The commander of the NDLEA, Mrs. Chinyere Obijuru, confirmed the
two arrests in a statement in Abuja.
She said, "Okafor was on board a commercial bus from Onitsha in
Anambra State when N48, 450,000 was found in a brown carton
concealed in a sack. He also had in his possession, 86,500 CFA.
"He claimed that the money belongs to a Bureau de Change at Onitsha.
He is suspected to be engaging in money laundering and will be
transferred to the EFCC for further investigation."
Chinyere further confirmed that Ugbai was arrested at Bako village in
the Kwali Area Council following the discovery of his cannabis
warehouse.
"Okafor would be handed over to the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) for further investigation, while Ugbai would be
charged to court for unlawful possession of cannabis," the NDLEA
commander noted.
The NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade, said the agency would continue
to clamp down on drug traffickers and urged the public to comply with
the provisions of the anti-money laundering act.

market in the Federal Capital Territory to convert the sum to dollars
when he was arrested.
"I work for a Bureau de Change in Onitsha. I was asked to purchase
dollars at the foreign exchange market in Abuja with the money. When
we got to Abaji, our vehicle was searched and the money was found.
That is all I know."
Reports also reveal that that a drug dealer, Chukuka Ugbai, was arrested
with 79 bags of weed, confirmed to have tested positive for cannabis, in
Bako village in the Kwali Area Council, Abuja during the same patrol.
The drug which weighed 817 kilogrammes was found in his warehouse.
Ugbai had allegedly owned up to being an illicit drug dealer but
expressed shock at how the NDLEA operatives were able to trail him to
his residence.
He said, "I sell cannabis to take care of my family and pay my children's
school fees. I was not lucky enough because I don't know how they
detected my cannabis warehouse. The officers found 79 bags of cannabis
in my store."
The commander of the NDLEA, Mrs. Chinyere Obijuru, confirmed the
two arrests in a statement in Abuja.
She said, "Okafor was on board a commercial bus from Onitsha in
Anambra State when N48, 450,000 was found in a brown carton
concealed in a sack. He also had in his possession, 86,500 CFA.
"He claimed that the money belongs to a Bureau de Change at Onitsha.
He is suspected to be engaging in money laundering and will be
transferred to the EFCC for further investigation."
Chinyere further confirmed that Ugbai was arrested at Bako village in
the Kwali Area Council following the discovery of his cannabis
warehouse.
"Okafor would be handed over to the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) for further investigation, while Ugbai would be
charged to court for unlawful possession of cannabis," the NDLEA
commander noted.
The NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade, said the agency would continue
to clamp down on drug traffickers and urged the public to comply with
the provisions of the anti-money laundering act.
