BARACK OBAMA'S EX-GIRLFRIEND

I was curious to find out who the lady was....
The woman was Genevieve Cook, who met Obama in 1983 at a Christmas party in Manhattan's East Village. He was barely six months from his graduation from Columbia University. They crossed paths in the kitchen. He was wearing blue jeans, a T-shirt and a dark leather jacket.Obama and Cook lived together briefly but in May 1985 they broke up.

Here are some excepts from her journal...

Thursday, May 23, 1985

Barack leaving my life—at least as far as being lovers goes. In the same way that the relationship was founded on calculated boundaries and carefully, rationally considered developments, it seems to be ending along coolly considered lines. I read back over the past year in my journals, and see and feel several themes in it all ... how from the beginning what I have been most concerned with has been my sense of Barack's withholding the kind of emotional involvement I was seeking. I guess I hoped time would change things and he'd let go and "fall in love" with me. Now, at this point, I'm left wondering if Barack's reserve, etc. is not just the time in his life, but, after all, emotional scarring that will make it difficult for him to get involved even after he's sorted his life through with age and experience. Hard to say, as obviously I was not the person that brought infatuation. (That lithe, bubbly, strong black lady is waiting somewhere!)

Thursday, January 26 How is he so old already, at the age of 22? I have to recognize (despite play of wry and mocking smile on lips) that I find his thereness very threatening. ... Distance, distance, distance, and wariness.

And

Saturday, February 25 The sexual warmth is definitely there—but the rest of it has sharp edges and I'm finding it all unsettling and finding myself wanting to withdraw from it all. I have to admit that I am feeling anger at him for some reason, multi-stranded reasons. His warmth can be deceptive. Tho he speaks sweet words and can be open and trusting, there is also that coolness—and I begin to have an inkling of some things about him that could get to me.

BRANDY AND MONICA....I LIKE!

I love this photo......you have to love these women.

NFL LEGEND JUNIOR SEAU IS DEAD

Suicide???? This is really shocking and sad! NFL legend Junior Seau was found dead in his home in Oceanside, CA

Seau, a 12-time Pro Bowler and 6-time First-Team All-Pro, was selected fifth overall in the 1990 NFL draft after an outstanding collegiate career at USC. He played with the San Diego Chargers through the 2002 season, spent 2003-2005 with the Miami Dolphins, and then signed with the New England Patriots in time for the 2006 season. In New England's perfect regular season of 2007, he played in all 16 games and started four. Seau first retires after that season, only to come back and play in 2008 and 2009 before finally leaving the NFL for good....

San Diego Chargers Chaplain Shawn Mitchell told ABCNews.com that Seau died of a "self inflicted gunshot wound to the chest this morning." Seau was 43. 

 "Everyone at the Chargers is in complete shock and disbelief right now. We ask everyone to stop what they're doing and send their prayers to Junior and his family." How exactly do people get to this point in thier life? Suicide???? It is still under investigation but it remains a shocking news.

J.T USENI,TY DANJUMA & CO....PLEASE HELP NIGERIA QUENCH THE FIRE...THANK YOU!

 NIgeria leaders and thier opinions....nobody wants to take the blame. They can begin by helping us quench that fire...we have heard enough " i am Righteous" Talk. Goodluck Jonathan alone is being blamed, when there are invisible hands in the corridors of power working.  Are these  not the same people ruling Nigeria???...

Former Minister of Defence, General Theophilus Danjuma has said Nigeria is  on fire, stating that northern states of Borno, Kano and Jigawa should be regarded as ‘already failed states.’
 The retired General and other politicians spoke at the 50th birthday celebration of the publisher of Leadership Newspaper at the International Conference Centre in Abuja on Tuesday.
General Danjuma in his own words: “Nigeria is on fire…the North is on fire. Nigeria is becoming like Somalia. The Somalianisation of Nigeria is taking place right now”


“I am an optimist as far as Nigeria is concerned…but in the last two months, I began to wonder, our house in on fire.We have to sit down and face the truth, get to the roots of our problem and find a solution to this problem” he said.
 “our house (the north) is on fire.” “Those of us who call ourselves northerners, our house is on fire…let us not deceive ourselves. Let’s tell ourselves the truth and find solution to our problem.” “Right now, Borno is a failed state, Jigawa is almost a failed state. Kano is threatening to be a failed state”

Former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Gen. Jeremiah Useni, who blamed the growing insecurity in the North on the northern governors.
“What are they doing with the money they are collecting? How can we say that we don’t know who the members of the Boko Haram are? They are attacking churches and mosques, but they are not reaching the people they should reach…If the governors want security today, there will be security” he affirmed, adding that the Almajiri schools should not be left to the Federal Government alone.”

Meanwhile the former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, blamed the ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for problem of Nigeria, citing the sack of the former President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Isa Salami without the approval of the Senate.
in his own words: “the sack of Justice Salami has put fears into other judges as they may not have the strength of justice to denounce the PDP or give remarkable judgment because of the fear of what happened to Justice Salami”.

The former Senate President, Ken Nnamani has called for the prosecution of Nigerians behind the third term agenda.
 Citing the an interview former President Olusegun Obasanjo where he denied any role in the third term agenda, Mr Nnamani noted that “if we don’t prosecute those behind the shameful act of the third term, some people will not have the guts to be denying their role.”
According to him, “some of our leaders tell lies without any pinch of shame”.
“how can there be investments without accountability”, explaining that unless this is done, “transformation is on fire”.

RICHARD BRANSON'S ICE CUBE.... YOU LIKE?

Sir Richard Branson of Virgin Group, famous for his unique way of doing his business, has crafted a new novelty ice cube in the shape of Sir Richard's head for Virgin Atlantic First Class passengers. With the help of a team of four skilled designers, the ice cubes were created over a reported period of six weeks. The designers  used detailed photographic techniques and laser scanning technology to craft the cubes.

The Daily Mail reported that the cubes were designed so the Virgin boss could travel "in spirit" with his passengers and they in turn could experience what it may be like to have a drink with the billionaire entrepreneur."While Richard would love to be able to sit and enjoy a drink with all of our passengers, his schedule means that it simply isn't possible," the Daily Mail quoted Steve Ridgway, chief executive of Virgin Atlantic, as saying. Now he is able to join our guests "in spirit" on one of the upper class cabin's first flights as they raise a toast to their trip and the exciting times ahead."

The work of art ice are depictions of  Sir Branson  with his hair, goatee beard and his set of teeth. The designers were able to get the exact matches of his face using new scanning technologies and photographic techniques.

According to the Telegraph, a spokesman for Virgin said the creation meant "all passengers will be able to enjoy some chill out time with Mr Branson". He added that the bar would feature additional innovations, including "enhanced mood lighting".

 

Incase, you don't like the Ice, you simply let it melt before you drink!

JUST SO WE DON'T FORGET... HEAVEN & HELL IS VERY REAL!

I just have to share this piece...it's straight from my heart and it is probably the bset thing i'll ever tell anyone.

As we go on everyday.....trying to get things done, situations resolved and move on with our lives: we must never forget the reality of Heaven and Hell. The world with whatever it offers us will eventually pass away. While i follow the news, share what is happening around the world..... i try my best never to forget. With all the chaos and challenges of human living, death is inevitable in whatever form it comes, no one knows for sure when his/her time will come. It's why people are encourgaed to make thier lives count, pursue the reason you are on earth with your whole heart and reach out to others. This is not some church sermon or Born-again preaching...it is reality! Some church goers are still unsure.....so it's not "church" thing. It is about your own life.

The reality of life after here is very real...... don't get caught up in the razzmatazz, vanity and wild goose chase of this world. Remember there is Eternity and you can choose where you are heading to...HEAVEN OR HELL! I want to go to Heaven and i rely on Grace to take through....i hope you have made that choice too. There is no point after all the hustling of everyday living, somebody ends up in HELL...it will not be funny. It will will sorrowful and pathetic. It is a good thing to achieve here in this present life, infact. God wants the best for you but you must not forget the things of eternal benefit, it is what will count in the very end. If you die today, right now...where are you heading to?

If you have not decided...you can decide now. Ask Jesus Christ into your Life...and He will help you! It will make so much difference in your life and your life will have better meaning as you will be able to fucus and put things in perspective. Are you thinking, i don't need Jesus? yet you are struggling to find your way through life, nothing seems to be working, you feel a sense of emptiness despite all the achievements in your life, you are still very unhappy, unsatisfied. You have tried to fill the emptiness with all manner of stuffs but it still will not go away. There is a space in our lives that only God can fill, a feeling that Jesus alone can satisfy. Perhaprs, it is the time to try Jesus.....you don't have forever! It is a good thing you are alive now, you can check yourself....

Wether you are rich or poor, pretty or ugly, famous or not, tall or short, fat or slim...etc will not count. In eternity these things don't count. What will matter is where your soul is heading to. Just so we don't forget.......Heaven and Hell is REAL. It is only one death away. Have a great day!
