A woman who had close relationships with one of the most
clever mammals in the world spoke out about her relationships with the
dolphin in the 1960s.
Margaret
Howe Lovatt took part in an unprecedented Nasa-funded experiment on the
US Virgin Islands. She together with a neurologist, Dr John C. Lilly,
tried to teach a six-year-old dolphin, Peter, how to speak English.
Margaret
and Peter spent at least ten weeks together eating, bathing and
sleeping together in a villa which first floor was flooded with seawater
on the island of St Thomas. Although the animal did not really succeed
in language learning he developed strong and intimate relationships with
Margaret.
Both
of them lived in water and only at night the woman lifted herself onto a
hanging mattress, protected from Peter’s splashings by a shower
curtain. The woman was constantly wearing swimming costume and ate
tinned food, so the couple was fully isolated. And finally Peter did
fall in love — sexual and romantic love — with his teacher.
In the fourth week of experiment, an alarming development occurred. Margaret confided to her diary: "Peter
has become sexually aroused several times during the week. I find that
his desires are hindering our relationship. He jams himself again and
again against my legs, circles around me, is inclined to nibble and is
generally so excited that he cannot control his attitude toward me. He
presented his tummy and genital area for stroking. Perhaps this is his
way of involving me in some form of sex play without scaring me away."
The
relationships, however, ended while funding was stopped. After a few
weeks of a separation Peter had committed suicide by refusing to
breathe, and sinking to the bottom of his tank. After Peter's death
Margaret married the project’s photographer, John Lovatt. Dr Lilly
continued his researches into communication between humans and
dolphins this time without Margaret's participation.

Hehehehehehe, Nollywood Releases Movie On Chibok Girls
The Nigerian film industry never stops to spring surprises. The industry
has been criticised severally for lacking creativity, especially with
the kind of movie titles they come up with lately, unlike back in the
days when they commanded respect.
Recently, the country has been battling with insurgency, especially in the north, and it got to highpoint with the abduction of more than 250 schoolgirls in Chibok, Borno State.
As expected, just like the Aluu 4 saga, a filmmaker has found a money angle to the incident simply termed as Chibok Girls.
A movie production called ‘The Lost Student’ has been done and as you read this piece, its poster is already out as predicted by some Nigerian comedians. The film featured some actors.

Los Angeles –
If his speech at his surprise welcome home party thrown for him by his
on-again/off-again girlfriend, Karrueche Tran , is anything to go by,
Chris Brown has finally made up his mind as to whom he wants to be in a
relationship with.
Not so long
ago, Brown broke up with Tran, the reason he gave for the break up was
that he wanted to focus on his “friendship” with Rihanna , Tran was
left wondering what she had done wrong. A few months later Brown broke
up with the Bajan songstress and went back to Tran.
Bossip reports
that after his release from prison last week Brown came home to all his
friends waiting for him at a surprise barbecue put together by his
girlfriend Karrueche Tran. Brown is said to have been really pleased by
the gesture.
In a speech he gave at the gathering, Brown said:
“I just want to thank everybody for coming out you know, I wasn’t expecting all this for real.

No sex since…? You have cobwebs down there – Dumelo tells Yvonne Nelson
Ghanaian actor John Dumelo has mocked bubbly actress Yvonne Nelson, who claims she has not had sex since January this year.
The actress disclosed during a conversation with John on Tuesday that since January 2014, she had starved herself of sex.
John Dumelo posted a video of the conversation on photo sharing site Instagram Tuesday and deleted it shortly after but the prying eyes of Myjoyonline.com was quick to save a copy before the deletion.
In what looked like they were on a movie location, John asked the actress, “So you’ve not had sex since January?” to which Yvonne swiftly responded, “Yes since…”
The award winning actor then jokingly jabbed, “then you have cobwebs over there.”
Yvonne concurred, “I’m telling you.” A clearly amused John Dumelo, together with some persons on location with them, burst into an uncontrollable laughter.
This will not be the first time Yvonne Nelson is disclosing that she is sex starved.
During a revealing interview on The Juice with Toolz last year, while talking about her relationship with Nigerian musician, Iyanya, she revealed that she had not had sex for seven months.
“It’s been seven months, I’m like a secondary virgin now. I haven’t seen anyone, done nothing,” she disclosed during that interview in July 2013.

Gang Members Led By Pastor To Be Hanged For Robbery Committed 9 Years Ago
Four persons were sentenced to death by hanging for robbing a commercial bank in Akure, in 2005.
Nine years ago, four companions - a pastor, Adeniyi Mathew, an evangelist, Akeem Benjamin, a businessman from Delta State, Cosmos Obi, and an apprentice radiator technician, Sherif Ogunleye - robbed a branch of the NBM Bank in Akure.
The incident took place on the night of June 2, 2005. According to the bank's data, the criminals took with them at least N26 million and were later caught in Ibadan.
They were nabbed after detectives detained Akeem Benjamin for being in possession of over N825,000 in NBM Bank wrappers.
Probably the evangelist сollaborated with law enforcement agencies as the investigation in the case was launched and 5 more suspects were arrested on suspicion of involvement in the Akure robbery.
A high court in Akure, Ondo State has sentenced 4 of them to death by hanging. (Naij)

South African Pastor commands babies to dance in the wombs of pregnant mothers and the baby is dancing…

Read Late Dora Akunyili's Last Public Speech At The National Confab
Late delegate of the ongoing National Conference,
representing Anambra state, Professor Dora Akunyili, has delivered a
flaming speech at the event. Read the powerful text below.
* Dora Akunjili's speech. Snapshot from a video
In the beginning of her speech she was offered to take a sit due to health condition, but Dora refused and insisted to make her address standing.
First of all, she started with commending President Goodluck Jonathan for having a courage to convene the event, and then switched to the main part of her message:

In the beginning of her speech she was offered to take a sit due to health condition, but Dora refused and insisted to make her address standing.
First of all, she started with commending President Goodluck Jonathan for having a courage to convene the event, and then switched to the main part of her message:
Nigerians have for long clamoured for an opportunity such as this to discuss our problems and come up with solutions that will strengthen the bond of our nationhood. I regard this national conference as President Jonathan's best centenary gift to Nigerians, and a proof that he is a listening president.It would be recalled that a former Director General of the NAFDAC and ex minister of Information Professor Dora Akunyili passed away on June 7, 2014, at the age of 59. She lost two-year-long battle with cancer. (Naij.com)
Mr. President's speech oozes humility, modesty, patriotism and a deep concern for the present and future of this beautiful country, Nigeria. Mr President in that speech admitted that sovereignty belongs to the people. And those in authority are only holding power on trust for the people and of course that nobody has monopoly of knowledge. Hence, the decision for convening this conference. One thing that stands out from Mr President's speech is that there is no trace of negativism.
For instance, he made it clear that Nigeria's unity is not negotiable and our duty at this conference is to discuss ways to build a stronger and better Nigeria, and I totally agree with him.
I am convinced that Nigeria should remain as one nation after 100 years despite her challenges because our common values overwhelm our differences.
Apart from our long history of togetherness, we've also enjoyed many decades of inter-marriages and mutual co-existence. We have to make sure that this conference delivers on the true spirit of Mr President's speech.
While we discuss the value of unity as written in his speech, we must realize that millions of Nigerians are being discriminated against in various parts of this country where they are born; where their forefathers lived; based on the so-called state of origin.
The founding fathers of Nigeria had a dream of building a united, prosperous, and developed nation state where social justice reigns. We also have to continue to dream because once we stopped dreaming then life is gone.
In conclusion, I am convinced that Nigeria will work and fulfil its destiny.
I therefore look forward to collaborating with other delegates to chart the way for a better a new Nigeria. We all want to see a positively transformed Nigeria and I therefore urge all of us to work individually and collectively so as to set the right agenda for the Nigeria of our dream.
Mr Chairman, distinguished delegates, I leave you with the words of these Greek proverb "A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in."

Bitter Husband Puts Cheating Ex-wife’s Wedding Dress Up For Sale With Insulting Advert
A Sydney husband hopes to get his revenge on his cheating ex-wife by selling her wedding dress on Gumtree with a scathing advert that includes references that she's an ‘adulterous, deceitful, double-crossing and traitorous soulmate’ who took half of his worldly possessions when they divorced.
His ad went live on Gumtree yesterday and has already racked up more than 60,000 visits and a few bids with the highest at $300. The man is not asking for much though I doubt any woman genuinely about to get married would buy that dress.
If you can't read the advert from the picture above, some lines from the man, who says the ex slept with one of his closest friends two years into their marriage, reads in part;
‘Due to be married soon? Not planning on staying faithful? Want to sleep with one of your soon-to-be husband’s closest friends? Then THIS is the wedding dress for you!
‘This stunning, tuille swathed, ivory bridal gown has a proven track record of producing an adulterous, deceitful, double-crossing and traitorous soulmate.
‘A one of a kind garment designed by Benedict Arnold, believed to be derived from the very cloth Judas Iscariot himself wore to the Garden of Gethsemane to betray the only son of God – Jesus Christ.’
It goes on to read that the dress offers legal entitlement to your husband’s worldly possessions.
It adds: ‘Cosmetically, the garment is in better condition than the marriage – not looking for much. Make an offer.’
