Nuns Sue To Shut Down Strip Club, Say It's Too Close to Their Convent Posted: 17 Jun 2014 07:06 PM PDT A group of nuns is suing to shut down a strip club next to their convent in Stone Park that the sisters say keeps them awake at night. The Missionary Sisters of St. Charles Borromeo Scalabrinians say in the suit that Club Allure has ruined their peace with blinking neon lights and loud thumping music. The nuns say they have witnessed drunken fights and found condoms littering the area. The suit, filed against the club and the village of Stone Park, states that the club violates a state law against operating adult entertainment within 1,000 feet of a school or place of worship. The club is also near houses, and three neighbors have joined the suit. "I think most people would find that offensive, to put a strip club next to a home for sisters," said Peter Breen, attorney for the Thomas More Society, a nonprofit law firm that filed the suit on behalf of the nuns. The suit was filed Friday in Cook County Circuit Court. The club opened last fall, but attorneys said the nuns were not properly notified. Dean Krone, an attorney for the village of Stone Park, said the state law is unconstitutional because it is overly broad by prohibiting such uses within 1 mile of houses of worship. That would eliminate any site in the tiny village from hosting a strip club, but under the First Amendment guaranteeing freedom of expression, Krone said, the courts have generally ruled that municipalities may not put blanket bans on strip clubs. The fight over the club has been raging for years. Village Board members initially denied a strip club proposed by the same ownership in 2009, Krone said, but when the owners sued, the village settled the suit by allowing the club.

Former Convict Saves a Baby That Almost Crawled Into a Busy Highway Posted: 17 Jun 2014 05:11 PM PDT Bryant Collins was driving on a Georgia highway when he caught a glimpse of something crawling on the grass, next to the busy highway that looked like a baby. Bryant Collins pulled over, carried the baby and then called 911. Turns out the small child had crawled out of her home about 300 yards away. She went through the woods, down a small embankment — and might have continued into the highway were it not for Collins. Emergency crews arrived and police arrested the child's father, Timothy Pickens, and will likely arrest the child's mother as well. Thankfully, the child was not hurt, according to Madison County sheriff Kip Thomas. "Everything was pretty much superficial that we saw," Thomas said, "Honestly that's almost a miracle: that a 15-month-old can go that far from her house, into the woods, fall down an embankment, wind up near a major highway, and really not get hurt that bad." And Bryant Collins? He stayed with the baby for two hours. "The baby started crying," Collins said, "so I turned my phone on and let her listen to some gospel music, and she calmed right down." On this day he is a hero. But Collins could never have saved the life of this baby if he had not, long ago, saved his own. "I did ten years in the federal institution for manufacturing cocaine," he said. "When I was in prison, I made a very conscientious effort to change, and I did." Collins has been free and clean for five years. And it was in his new job, as an auto repairman, that he found himself on the side of the road, a baby's life literally in his hands.

Useful Tips on Shaving Pubic Hair With Step By Step Guide for Women Posted: 17 Jun 2014 11:48 AM PDT Removing pubic hair seems like an ordeal to most women as they often end up getting nicks and painful ingrown hair. A smooth and well-shaven pubic area provides a feeling of freedom to women and helps them enjoy more intimacy with their partner. However, shaving pubic hair is tougher than shaving legs or underarms owing to the sensitivity of the pubic region. Women need to shave their pubic hair patiently and carefully to avoid getting nicks and ingrown hair. Given below is a step-by-step guide that will ensure your shaving process is easy and nick-free. Read - How to Take Care of the Vagina Step 1: Pick the right shaving cream Pubic region is one of the most sensitive parts of the body hence you should be very careful while choosing the shaving cream. Soaps do not form sufficient lather and foams or creams used by men for shaving may not provide sufficient lubrication and protection for your sensitive private parts. Use shaving creams or gels that contain moisturising agents such as aloe vera or vitamin E. Step 2: Choose a proper razor It is extremely important to choose an appropriate razor for shaving pubic hair. A cheap disposable razor with a single blade is likely to cause you cuts or nicks on your most sensitive parts and may hurt you immensely. It is recommended that you use multi-bladed razor with a moisturizing strip on its head to give you a smooth, close shave. Step 3: Trim long hair To make shaving easier, a good idea would be to trim down pubic hair longer than a quarter of an inch with scissors. Cutting it as short as possible means you will have to deal with less hair while shaving. This will make the shaving process less painful and less messy. Step 4: Take a warm shower or bath Always remove pubic hair after a warm shower or after soaking yourself in a hot tub for a few minutes. This will help to open the pores of the skin and soften hair follicles, making it easy for you to remove hairs from the root. Removing pubic hair following a bath also prevents the growth of ingrown hair, a problem women frequently encounter when shaving pubic hair. Step 5: Exfoliate the skin Experts also recommend exfoliating to remove dead skin cell to facilitate a closer shave. Use a mild exfoliate or a body wash with a washcloth or loofah sponge on your pubic area. Step 6: Use a shaving oil For extra smooth shaving experience, you may apply some shaving oil. This will help razor glide easily over your skin and prevent razor burn, general irritation and ingrown hairs. Step 7: Apply shaving cream or gel Apply a generous amount of shaving cream or gel on a damp but not wet skin. You may also use a shaving brush to work up a good lather to ensure a smooth shave. Step 8: Ready to shave Using a fresh blade, first move the shaver in the same direction of hair growth and then in opposite direction. Use one hand to pull your skin taut and the other to glide the razor. Don't go over the same area too many times to avoid getting a cut. Remember to rinse the blade after every couple of strokes. A clogged razor will not work well. After shaving, rinse pubic area and pat dry with towel. Use cool water to rinse, as it will help to close the pores and follicles, reducing the chance of irritation. Step 9: Moisturise Moisturise the freshly shaven pubic area using baby oil, vitamin E or aloe vera. This will help to soothe your skin after the shave and reduce the chance of pimples or razor burn. It is best to avoid moisturizers that contain fragrances and colours, as they may cause irritation. Some useful tips on shaving pubic hair • Some women suffer from increased genital sensitivity during menstruation. They must avoid shaving during this period • You may consider using a small mirror to see well if you are taking off most of your pubic hair • Moisturise and powder the area daily to avoid irritation • Try to wear cotton underwear and to stay away from tight fitting pants. The lack of air circulation and friction of tight cloths may lead to in-grown hairs Source | |||||
Dorobucci is an Occultic Song? Don Jazzy Says No Posted: 17 Jun 2014 08:28 AM PDT Dorobucci is the title of the latest single from the Mavin label led by Don Jazzy and also had Tiwa Savage and Dr. Sid on the track. While I didn't think it was a particulary enjoyable song, it went viral due to Don Jazzy's able marketing abilities. Now, some people are saying it is an occultic song? I'm not sure whether they are serious or joking, and we are supposed to be laughing. However, some people actually believe it's true and Don Jazzy has had to defend himself and the song title as follows; Lol ok some very sad people have been sending this around. Eyaaa pele. It's things like this that make me so sure that all that illuminati crap about some Yankee artistes is just BS. Lol. Oh well.. #Mavin This is the full writeup about Dorobucci's alleged meaning: WHAT IS DORO? Do you think this is a joke or you believe there really must be something occultic about the title? | |||||
The Fastest Shedder Before and After Pictures - Could They Have Done Better? Posted: 17 Jun 2014 07:13 AM PDT The Fastest Shedder is a TV reality show for weight loss modelled on the US Biggest Loser, and has been on for three months now. Last weekend, they had the finale, and the winner lost a total of 27kg. She won N1Million for her efforts. While some are saying the weight lost by the women is not sufficient, or not encouraging, I think the show has shown a positive and realistic journey to weight loss for these women. I have been battling to lose 10kg for the past few years so I know where they are coming from. They must have worked really hard to get their new bodies. I only hope they keep the motivation going till they get further down to more healthy weight. Check out the before and after looks of the top 4 ladies below. | |||||
Sugar Daddy University Teaches Women How to Find, Date and Marry Wealthy Older Men Posted: 17 Jun 2014 02:31 PM PDT Do Aristos need a degree for what they do? Maybe. A new course is offering to teach women how to be the ideal 'sugar baby' in order to land a wealthy man. Professional sugar baby Carla Abonia, 37, has been flown across the world and had wildly lavish gifts bought for her by rich men who can't resist her company. But she admits the relationships aren't always straight forward, so has joined forces with her mentor, sugar daddy Alan Schneider, to form their Sugar Daddy University in New York. The pair teach five key elements of being a successful sugar daddy or sugar baby through the curriculum - Sexuality, Understanding, Generosity, Attraction and Reciprocity. They even have plastic surgeons - as well as relationship and financial experts - on hand to advise women how to look better as they or their sugar daddy invest in their appearance. Carla turned to the sugar baby lifestyle after getting fed up with cheap blokes - one in particular would bring a KFC bucket to her house for dinner and leave her the leftovers. She said: "He'd want to give me a kiss and would leave crumbs all over my mouth. As soon as I got rid of him I went straight on the internet and started researching. "I think a lot of women can relate to each other in that way. We want to be treated well and that is where the sugar way of life comes from. "Our experiences are what created the university - relationships can be better so we're here to make them better. "I'm going to be teaching how to view the relationship so it can be prosperous and beneficial for both sides. "I'll be putting all my experience together to help other babies appreciate the man they are with and let the daddies know how to approach us in the first place." School headmaster Alan, who created the dating site SugarDaddyForMe.com, added the university is there for people to get a better grasp of the 'often misunderstood' lifestyle. He said: "A lot of women don't know how to approach men - they think they're aggressive and predatory. We have to enhance and educate both sides so each respect each other. "We get unhappily married people looking for new partners, students, professionals who find it hard to meet people - it's an incredible mixture of professions and interests. "A lot of the sugar babies are 21-35, attractive, well-educated but struggling financially for one reason or another so want mentoring - the sugar daddies are like benefactors helping them. "It's not just about sex - we help them discover a spark, a real connection and many couples get married. Because of the understanding it happens more regularly than other marriages. "The course teaches understanding the sugar daddy lifestyle, how to navigate successfully in it, how to avoid the pitfalls of approaching the lifestyle incorrectly and learning the tools to initiate and prosper in this relevant and popular, but often misunderstood lifestyle.

Marriage Sabbatical - Could Taking Time Away From Your Marriage Make It Stronger? Posted: 17 Jun 2014 04:03 AM PDT Marriage sabbatical is a term coined by author Cheryl Jarvis, who wrote a book about women taking time out from their marriages to do something for themselves, something they felt being married was stopping them from doing. The idea of pulling apart in a relationship that is meant to be all about togetherness may seem illogical, but increasing number of couples are embracing the idea of one of them, especially the wife, taking a 'sabbatical' from their marriage in order to make it stronger. A marriage sabbatical is different from a trial separation and the couple are not discussing divorce in any way. There is also no room for relationships or sex with other people while the wife or husband is taking the sabbatical. The debate surrounding 'marriage sabbaticals' was sparked recently when actress Emma Thompson revealed that she believes every married couple would benefit from such a break. And it got me thinking. Marriage can be difficult, and it is hardest on women and their dreams and personal life goals which often get subsumed in her husband's and that of her children. Some women don't mind this but embrace it, for those who do, a marriage sabbatical to pursue those dreams for a while may be the answer to refreshing her and making her a stronger person, more comfortable in her skin, and happier to be with her family. Do you know what this reminds me of? It reminds me of the couple of married women I had in my masters degree class. Both of them came to the UK, leaving their husbands behind in their home countries, one left him with their three children, the other left him with one child. I also know of a married friend who recently took a sabbatical to go get her PhD in another country, she took their child along. They tried to visit each other at least once a year, and are back together now with her degree in the bag within three years and a better job for her. The PHd would have taken her upwards of six years if she had done it from home, and without it, her job would have gone downhill. She is happier with her degree and her job now, and their marriage is stronger for it. Cheryl interviewed fifty-five women who had taken sabbaticals, and she took 3 month trip away from her own family to join a writing retreat and finish a novel she had been working on. In "The Marriage Sabbatical" Jarvis explores what some might consider a radical question: What happens when married women take some time and space away?
However, psychologist Jo Hemmings has reservations about the trend. She says if one party in the marriage is unhappy with themselves and feels marriage is constraining them, taking time away may be the wrong move. 'A sabbatical is not addressing the issues, you need to find out the root problems within the relationship, a period of time totally separate is just adding more questions. It is a bit of a last resort and it's a bit risky. If one partner loves being apart and doesn't want to come back then you are in trouble.' What do you think about the idea? Have you ever taken a marriage sabbatical? Read a review of the Marriage Sabbatical here. | |||||
