Condom Designed To Kill HIV Virus

This is a rather strange innovation.

So there has been improvement in science as a condom capable of deactivating 99.9 per cent of HIV, herpes and human papilloma virus cases has been developed. However, the innovation still awaits approval.

Starpharma, an Australian bio-tech firm has developed the antiviral Viva Gel, the active ingredient designed to tackle sexually transmitted infections, in the condom’s lubricant.

The condoms are lubricated with VivaGel, which contains 0.5 per cent astodrimer sodium – a non-
antibiotic, antimicrobial drug designed specifically as a compound against HIV.

The product has now received a receipt of Conformity of Assessment Certification by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration, which paves the way for mass production.

With the imminent public release, the gel would help reduce the transmission of HIV and other STIs, while also reducing the risk of pregnancy.

Starpharma partnered with Ansell, which is responsible for around 70 percent of Australia’s condom market to create the new line of Antiviral gel condoms. The recent TGA approval came after the condom was assessed in line with a set of requirements relating to safety and performance.

Peter Carroll, Ansell president, said consumers could expect to see the ‘ground-breaking new sexual health’ product on the shelves soon.

He said, ‘Ansell looks forward to rolling out its marketing and sales campaign to support the launch of LifeStyles Dual Protect over the coming months with the first product expected to be available on shelves soon.’

Sudanese Meriam Ibrahim Meets Pope Francis

Meriam Ibrahim, a Christian Sudanese woman spared a death sentence for apostasy after an international outcry, has met Pope Francis after arriving in Italy.

GUARDIAN reports that: The 27-year-old and her family were received at the pontiff's guesthouse for just under 30 minutes in an atmosphere "of serenity and tenderness", the Vatican spokesman Federico Lombardi said in a statement.

"The pope thanked Meriam and her family for their courageous demonstration of constancy of faith. Meriam gave thanks for the great support and comfort which she received from the prayers of the pope and of many other people who believe and are of good will."

Francis, 77, also wanted the meeting to have a symbolic aspect, Lombardi said. "With this gesture the pope wished also to show his closeness, attention and prayer for all those who suffer because of their faith and in particular Christians who suffer persecution or restriction to their freedom of religion."

Earlier on Thursday, Italian television showed Ibrahim leaving the aircraft at Ciampino airport in Rome accompanied by her husband, two children and Italy's vice-minister for foreign affairs, Lapo Pistelli.

Ibrahim was sentenced to 100 lashes for adultery and to death for apostasy in May, sparking an international campaign to lift the death sentence.

More than a million people backed an Amnesty International campaign to get her released, with David Cameron, the British prime minister, and the US civil rights activist Jesse Jackson among world leaders who clamoured for her release.

While on death row, Ibrahim, a graduate of Sudan University's school of medicine, gave birth in shackles in May. It was a difficult birth as her legs were in chains and Ibrahim is worried that the girl may need support to walk. Ibrahim was told that her death sentence would be deferred for two years to allow her to nurse the baby.

Under the Sudanese penal code, Muslims are forbidden from changing faith, and Muslim women are not permitted to marry Christian men. During her trial in Khartoum, she told the court that she had been brought up as a Christian, and refused to renounce her faith.

She and Daniel Wani – an American citizen – married in 2011. The court ruled that the union was invalid and that Ibrahim was guilty of adultery. Her convictions, sentences and detention in Omdurman women's prison while heavily pregnant and with her toddler son incarcerated alongside her caused international outrage.

After an appeal court overturned the death sentence, Ibrahim, Wani, and their two children tried to leave last month, but were turned back. The Sudanese government accused her of trying to leave the country with false papers, preventing her departure for the US.
Her lawyer, Mohaned Mostafa, said he had not been told of her departure on Thursday.

"I don't know anything about such news but so far the complaint that was filed against Meriam and which prevents her from travelling from Sudan has not been cancelled," Mostafa told Reuters.

Ibrahim and her family had been staying at the US embassy in Khartoum.

NYSC Members To Receive Civil Service Salary?

The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, is working with the National Salaries and Wages Commission, NSWC, to place corps members on a public service salary scale.

VANGUARD reports that: The Director-General of NYSC, Brig. Gen. Johnson Olawumi, who disclosed this in Abuja, noted that the move would stop frequent agitation for a review of corps members’ allowances.

Olawumi said the series of attempts made by the scheme to secure adjustment in the allowances of corps members at the National Assembly did not
yield the desired result.

He maintained that the current N19,800 monthly allowances for corps members was inadequate in
view of current economic realities in the country, noting that they were working closely with the
wages commission to concretise the proposal.

On the forthcoming governorhip election in Osun State, Olawumi assured that the scheme would not
compromise as alleged by some politicians.

He said allegations by politicians that the scheme had compromised its partnership with the electoral body were unfounded and should be taken as political tactics.

Olawumi said: “We have some political parties also alleging that all my staff in Osun State have
compromised and agitating that I should remove them. You are bound to see things like this in elections.

“I want to state categorically that we do not just deploy these corps members for electoral duties, and as far as we are concerned, they are not the alpha and omega in elections; they are just playing a minute role.

“It is important to let you know that we do not just push them out. We conduct sensitisation training for them and in the cause of that, give them manual.

“We let them know that they are all adults and should be ready to face the consequences of whatever action they decide to take.”

So I'm Thinking Of My Future Wife

While growing up as a child, my mum would take me to the market ( i think Balogun market in Lagos) at the end of November to shop for Christmas clothes and shoes for myself and my three younger brothers, Meme, Fortune, and Wiscal respectively.

Consequently, getting to the market is another story entirely. The drama of seeing what pleases my eyes begins and my mum starts to complain - don't you already know i have taste, i'd mumble under my breath.

Nonetheless, when i finally see what catches my eyes, it always stood out with limited quantity and expensive (it supersedes my mum's budget).

As i grew older and passed the childhood stage and being a teenager, now i'm an adult or better still what my H.O.D back in my university days would call young adult, it became obvious how hard it is for my eyes and ears to be pleased.

How would i get married with these high standards. Do i need to change my eyes? I love perfect, but there is no perfect.

I had subconsciously developed a personal checklist in my head in which i grade ladies. There are the ones i refer to as the beautifuls, the fines, and the okays. I'll explain.

The beautifuls are the ones to whom even their enemies accord beautiful. It is obvious even to the blind. This kind of beauty can make a reverend father uncelibate (am not sure that word exist but i know you understand...winks). It can make a sane man go bananas. You need examples? Google Meagan Good, Eva Mendes, Jessica Alba, or better still my friend, Amaju Okitipki. They are the beautifuls.

Then we have the fines. I would describe them as the bridge between the beautifuls and the okays. They are fine when the make up is done properly. I won't give you examples so i don't get into trouble... smiles.

Then again the okays. No one created by G.O.D is hideous. People say it and i choose to believe. He created everything and it was good. God loves ugly, He doesn't see the way i see. God takes ugly and turns it into something that is beautiful... -  Jordin Sparks.

Meanwhile, we have the voices i call awesome, okay, and terrible. When the awesome talk or sing, you stop to listen. Google Jennifer Hudson, Timi Dakolo, Dan Foster of City FM, Joyce of Cool FM, Kim Burrel or my friend, Minor. They are the voices. You'd find the okays and terrible in our very own music industry.

Back to the matter. I'm still thinking of my future wife, what she looks like, how she talks (hope she's not razz). I hope she's still black (not toned or tanned or whatever) and among the beautifuls cause i think i'm bellissima.

I hope she is true to her workouts cause i'm. I jog on the threadmill every morning, do my sit ups and press ups so i can be your superman.

I hope she loves the Lord in the real sense of it too. I really do not care if you have curves or not, cause a great personality will always win my heart and everything.

I am waiting for you patiently. I have started investing. I am honing my crafts and spreading my tentacles just so i can make enough money to give you double of what you give me cause i think that's what marriage or any other relationship should be about - trying to out do each other in giving ( for God so love the word that He gave...).

My elder sister doesn't have a girl yet, hope it won't be the same as ours cause i'd love to have girls - i don't mind all girls too.

I'd be glad to meet you now. My name is Emmanuel Agboiyi. What's yours?

Who poured me water!!!!!!!!

5 Reasons He Won't Marry You

So i was wondering what on earth will make a man not marry the lady he's seeing. Here are the top five reasons that crossed my mind. *winks*

1. You both are already living together.

2. He already said no but the lady wasn't paying attention.

3. He doesn't feel like you need him (men love to feel like kings).

4. You are a nag.

5. You are more of a socialite than he is.

Peter Okoye Reveals Why He Missed Jude's Wedding

So i decided to know more about the issh between Peter Okoye and his elder brother, Jude, this is what i uncovered.

Jude who is elder brother to Peter reluctantly absented himself from Peter's own wedding just because he wasn't in support of his (Peter) union with his Yoruba wife, Lola.

It should be recalled that before Peter was joined with Lola, they both had a son together and this is the reason (at least one) Peter went ahead to marry Lola.

Consequently, Peter intentionally missed Jude's wedding as a medium to spite his brother.

If you ask me, i'd say Jude started it all. lol..

FIFA Lifts Ban On Nigeria

Sahara reporters reports: the crisis that has rocked the Nigeria Football Federation since the Aminu Maigari-led board was sacked on July 6 is to be resolved today in line with FIFA's deadline for suspension lifting.

The development is as a result of the vacation of a suit in High Court Jos, which had earlier granted restraining order against Maigari's board thus preventing him and his board from administering Nigerian football.

FIFA demanded for the withdrawal of the case as well as the reinstatement of the Maigari-led board of the NFF as conditions before lifting the suspension placed on the country since lastweek.

Nigeria was lucky to have the world football governing body extend the deadline for compliance to today due to the judicial workers strike which prevented the court to sit on the earlier fixed July 15.

The Amos Adamu-led lobby team sent to FIFA by sports minister Dr. Tammy Danagogo to intimate FIFA on issues that necessitated Maigari's removal returned to the country yesterday and has submitted its report, which hasn't been made public.

The latest development has saved Nigeria bid to participate in the U-20 FIFA Women's World Cup, as well as the male African U-17 Championship qualifier this weekend.

Maigari and his board will resume their duties today and continue their normal functions until next month's elections when they could be sacked through the ballot, in line with FIFA's statuses.

Malaysia Airlines Jet Crashes in Ukraine

New York Times reports that a Malaysia Airlines flight with nearly 300 people aboard crashed over eastern Ukraine near the Russian border on Thursday, the Ukraine government and a regional European aviation official reported, and the Interfax news agency said it had been shot down.

Ukraine’s president, Petro O. Poroschenko, said in a statement that he was calling for an immediate investigation of the crashed flight, a Boeing 777. He did not rule out that it might have been shot down.

Eastern Ukraine has been roiled for months by a violent pro-Russian political separatist movement.

Malaysia Airlines said it had lost contact with a flight, MH17, from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur over Ukraine but offered no further details immediately.

Hishammuddin Hussein, Malaysia’s defense minister, responded to reports that the aircraft had disappeared and might have been shot down by posting a series of terse messages on Twitter: “Monitoring this closely,” said one. In another, he referred to the ministry of defense in saying that, “I have directed MINDEF to get confirmation.”

FIFA's World Ranking List Is Racist

I have never been a fan of FIFA at all since my childhood, reasons are because since i was born and now i am getting old, Sepp Blatter has remained FIFA president.

Consequently, since the ban of Nigeria from football events, i still have not been able to fathom the reason for the ban.

If the Nigerian government decides to remove from office who she remunerates, i don't think that's an odd thing to do besides he who pays the piper dictates the tune.

The more recent reason for this article is centered on the benchmark for drawing out the world ranking and the position our dear Nigeria occupies.

Nigeria is ranked the 34th best in the world and Bosnia and Herzegovina is ranked the 19th best in the world. Really? Seriously?

Bosnia that could not qualify from its group stage ranked higher than AFCON champions.

I think this list is racist!
