Louis Vuitton has gone short on their creativity

I am sorry Louis Vuitton but, have you gone short on your creativity?????? I know the trend of swapping disposable grocery bags for cloth and plastic-lined reusable bags has become an increasingly popular “green” alternative; but this is and should be unacceptable.

I mean how can Louis Vuitton take our Grandma's bags (popularly known as "Ghana must go bags"), stamp their name on it & are selling them for $300 I am speechless and appaled I must say.

Well well, Toolz talks about her coming soon wedding

The host of the popular show The Juice who had her introduction last week, poored all her emotions out on her website. Below are her words...

"Ishhh is getting real!! Can’t believe I’m going to be a married woman, it’s all so terribly grown up lol. I didn’t want to put up anything on my site, but I’m trying to make it a bit more personal, so let’s see how this goes. Anyhoo, so on Saturday 5th September, I had my introduction. This is where the families of the bride and groom officially meet. We had expected about 100 people, I hear there were about 250 people there! Eeek! I didn’t sleep well the night before, because I was so nervous and I really didn’t know what to expect. I’ve been to events like this before, but I’m generally in a corner somewhere just observing.
Today the attention was all on me…and that was so unnerving! I’m used to being on stage, but then work-mode has been activated, so in my mind its all about work.

I was so nervous, couldn’t eat…also because I was paranoid that I would get food stuck in my braces and would end up having lots of pictures with efo (spinach) hanging from my teeth lol.
I worked myself up so much that I ended up developing a nervous tick. My right eye twitched for hours and I could barely stop myself from freaking out….but when I saw him aka Bae the twitching stopped…(and the crowd went awwww!)

All thanks to God!
Much love to family and friends for making it all happen, looking forward to Part 2 & 3!
A big thank you to:
Valerie Davids for the dress she ‘built’ for me
Lois of Prospotted Makeover for the make-up
Lush Jewels for the jewelry

RIP and my condolences to her family and loved ones.

Actress and super model Synthia Emade has had her engagement called off by her striker man Clinton Nje

According to a close source, the multitalented Cameroonian beauty Synthia Emade and the striker Nje Clinton call off their engagement three weeks to traditional wedding.

Although not yet confirmed by her PR team and herself, the rumour goes on to reveal further that the reason behind the sudden call off of their wedding was because, Nje Clinton found out Synthia Emade was still  seeing her ex boyfriend .

From further investigations, I ask, could she be pregnant? There is reason to believe the richest guy maybe the  father to Synthia Emade's unborn child.

We tried contacting the striker but still no comment from him or management team as he is buzy settling in his new team; Tottenham Hotspur just completed the signing of this Cameroon international Clinton Nje.

As for the miss heritage, she is buzy promoting her new movie "smokesScreen" which she co-produced and stared in. This self proclaimed movie will air on Cameroon's national television CRTV.

We are still awaiting further outcome from our ongoing investigation and feedback from her PR TEAM. We will keep you updated.

THE FIRST BLACK FEMALE NASCAR DRIVER

Tia Norfleet has an amazing story. As the first ever African American female to get behind the wheel of a NASCAR vehicle, she is blazing trails and burning up tracks. Norfleet says that her mother is a pastor, so she is a woman of God. She also says that she started off driving the family mini-van when she was just eight years old.

Tia Norfleet is the first and only African American female race care driver to be licenced with NASCAR….

From the New York Times:

“Ms. Norfleet is one of thousands of individuals who have purchased licenses in the Late Model Division of our sport,” NASCAR Vice President for Public Affairs and Multicultural Development Marcus Jadotte said in an e-mail. “I am uncomfortable with attempts Ms. Norfleet and her representatives have made to forgo the sport’s development process.”

 Red flag!! Apparently, she may have lied about her identity.

Nascar officials said they were also concerned with questions about Norfleet’s legal record. Public records indicate that Tia Norfleet’s full name is Shauntia Latrice Norfleet, and that she has a criminal record in Virginia and Georgia. (No public records were found with the name Tia Norfleet.) According to her Web site, her hometown is Augusta, Ga.

Court records show that in 2005 and 2009, Norfleet was found guilty of assault and drug-related offenses. 

Norfleet did not deny having a criminal record.

“People make mistakes in their life and move forward and make a better way,” she said in a telephone interview. “I think things that I’ve done, people make mistakes, as a child, as a teen, and basically, it’s things that you may not be proud of but you move forward and you help others. And they may be in the same situation and you can relate and they can relate to you, and you help them as much as possible.”

Warren Buffett's Fear May Just Be Your Proven Opportunity

Are you an investor, or new to the game? well admitting fear is difficult. But CEO Warren Buffett may just have.

So you can imagine how shocked I was to find out Warren Buffett recently told a select number of investors about the cutting-edge technology that's keeping him awake at night.

This past May, The Motley Fool sent 8 of its best stock analysts to Omaha, Nebraska to attend the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholder meeting. CEO Warren Buffett and Vice Chairman Charlie Munger fielded questions for nearly 6 hours.

The catch was: Attendees weren't allowed to record any of it. No audio. No video.

Team of analysts wrote down every single word Buffett and Munger uttered. Over 16,000 words. But only two words stood out to many as the detailed transcript of the event was read: which were "Real threat."

That's how Buffett responded when asked about this emerging market that is already expected to be worth more than $2 trillion in the U.S. alone. Google has already put some of its best engineers behind the technology powering this trend.

The amazing thing is, while Buffett may be nervous, the rest of us can invest in this new industry BEFORE the old money realizes what hit them.

KPMG advises we’re “on the cusp of revolutionary change” coming much “sooner than you think."

Even one legendary MIT professor had to recant his position that the technology was “beyond the capability of computer science.” (He recently confessed to The Wall Street Journal that he’s now a believer and amazed “how quickly this technology caught on.”)

Think about how many amazing technologies you've watched soar to new heights while you kick yourself thinking, "I knew about that technology before everyone was talking about it, but I just sat on my hands."

Don't let that happen again. This time, it should be your family telling you, "I can't believe you knew about and invested in that technology so early on."

That's why I hope you take just a few minutes to access the exclusive research our team of analysts has put together on this industry and one stock positioned to capitalize on this major shift.

Migrant is a word that strips suffering people of voice

The argument that most of those risking everything to land on Europe’s shores are doing it for money is not supported by the facts.

According to the UN, the overwhelming majority of these people are escaping war. The largest group are fleeing Syria, a country in which an estimated 220,000 to more than 300,000 people have been killed during its appalling and escalating war.

Many others come from Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Eritrea and Somalia – all places from which people are commonly given asylum.

There is no "migrant" crisis in the Mediterranean. There is a very large number of refugees fleeing unimaginable misery and danger and a smaller number of people trying to escape the sort of poverty that drives some to desperation.

Migrant is a word that strips suffering people of voice. Substituting it for refugee is – in the smallest way – an attempt to give some back.

A team of students in the University of Lagos built an eco-friendly car

According to these UNILAG undergraduates, the car doesn't emit gas, it doesn't utilize fossil fuel. They built the car under the Project Dove Initiative and have successfully completed their first model, Dove P1, making use of locally sourced materials and building it right here in the university of Lagos. Very empowering initiative and well done to them. Hope this takes them further than Nigeria and Africa.
