The power Of A Woman

Women are a precious gift from God but there are some things that all men need to know. Women are by far the deeper and more powerful of the two sexes. No matter how strong a man thinks he is, he is like butter in the hands of a woman that he loves. It is only a woman that can carry a child for nine months and raise that child to adulthood and yet until the day that that woman dies only she will know the real father of that child.

Women are more discerning than men, more calculating, more thoughtful, more spiritual, more loyal, and more disciplined and they can handle emotional pain and psychological torture far better than men. A woman can suffer trauma, deprivation, shame, sheer cruelty and beatings from a man and still stay with him simply for the sake of the children. A woman can do anything and take anything for, or from, a man that she truly loves. A woman can be the most vicious and dangerous of all God’s creatures when she is hurt and scorned and when her love is not returned.

A woman in a position of power can be a dangerous thing because more often than not she is motivated by emotion and not reason or logic. If wars were to be fought by women they would never end. The greatest weapon that the devil has in his armoury are the daughters of Jezebel and Dalilah, those beautiful yet evil seducers whose mission in life is to destroy men that are called to greatness by God. The greatest weapon that God has in his arsenal are the daughters of Zion, those beautiful, wise, prayerful, discerning, prudent, patient, kind, loyal women who are faithful unto death and who are the enforcers and guardians of God’s purpose in the lives of men.

A woman can kill a man that she has lived with all her life, simply because he never returned her love and a woman can kill for or die for a man who loves her and stands by her through thick and thin. If you are rich, pretend that you are poor to a woman and you will know her true nature. If you are poor, pretend that you are rich to a woman and you will know what she is really after. A woman that abandons a man when he is going through difficulties is not worth taking back when those challenges have been overcome. Beware of a woman’s love, for at the slightest hurt, it can turn to hate. Women gossip and talk, yet a woman keeps deeper secrets than any man.

When a woman says “no” she actually means “maybe” and when she says “maybe” she actually means “yes”. A woman that betrays or seeks to destroy, ridicule or shame her husband or lover destroys and diminishes her own spirit and wounds her own soul; not only is she not worthy of being loved by any, but she is not the material for a man of destiny, she is not of the stuff that true women are made. A great king with a great army can overrun nations and yet can be mastered and overwhelmed by the mere touch and whisperings of a loving woman. The love of Helen of Troy caused the launch of a thousand ships and the love of any woman can cause a man to slaughter. Women are a gift from God to men, but like all gifts they must be pampered, loved and given all your attention otherwise they begin to look elsewhere for such nourishment and care. Out of every specie of animal ever created by God, it is always the female gender of that animal that is the most vicious and dangerous and yet it is also the female of that specie that protects and raises the offspring in loving care.

You cannot police a woman or really know her movements for she can be the greatest deceiver: if she really wants to play, she will go ahead and play and no matter the efforts that her man makes, it is only by divine intervention that he will ever know. A woman is moved by touch whilst a man is moved by sight. A woman will die for her children and guard her home with all she has. A woman craves for security and commitment above all else and without these two she cannot truly be happy. A woman gives, a woman takes, a woman laughs, a woman cries, yet through all this only she alone knows what is really in her heart. A woman can heave and moan in the throes of orgasmic passion, yet deep down she feels nothing at all but pity and contempt for the lover that she is deceiving. A woman can lie still and say she feels nothing yet her heart trembles and races and her senses come alive and quiver deeply just at the sound and by the touch of the man that she truly desires. That is a woman for you: they can be a snare or a blessing. They can bring joy or pain. They can wound or they can heal. They are a beautiful contradiction of love and hate and we men simply cannot live without them.

A woman can only appreciate a man after she has been with another. A woman will make you feel that you are in charge yet with sweet words and with guile and cunning she silently controls everything and everyone around you. Women are the shield, the defender and the foundation of the home. Even as the man is the head, the woman is the neck without which it would fall. The greatest mistake that any man could ever make is to underestimate or treat with levity the power of a woman. For it is only a dullard or a fool that could honestly believe that he can confine a woman to having babies and to simply cooking in the kitchen. A woman is irrepressable, unbeatable,unfathomable, irresistable and unknowable and my advice to every man is to cherish her, to love her and to grant her, her hearts deepest desires. That is the secret to a woman’s heart and what more is there to say, other than for us to admit that the woman is the true hero of our lives and to simply agree that we must appease and worship them and do all we can to keep those pretty smiles on their beautiful yet dangerous faces.

Know About The Colour Red

Red is the color at the end of the spectrum of visible light next to orange and opposite violet. It is evoked by light with a predominant wavelength of roughly 620–740 nm. Red is one of the additive primary colors of light, along with green and blue, which in RGB color systems are combined to create all the colors on a computer monitor or television screen. It is also one of the subtractive primary colors, along with yellow and blue, of the RYB color space and traditional color wheel used by painters and artists.

Reds can vary in shade from very light pink to very dark maroon or burgundy; and in hue from the bright orange-red scarlet or vermilion to the bluish-red crimson.

Red was widely used in prehistoric cave art, made with red hematite or iron oxide, or red ochre. Early civilizations in China, the Middle East and Europe made red dyes from the madder plant or from the a tiny insect called the kermes vermilio, Civilizations in the Americas made brilliant reds from another scale insect, the cochineal, Ancient Chinese artists during the Han Dynasty used dye from the madder plant to color silk and pigments from lead oxide to color pottery.

In ancient Rome red symbolized blood and courage; Roman soldiers wore red tunics, and generals wore a scarlet cloak, and had their bodies painted completely in red during ceremonial triumphs. It also sometimes represented sin; the Book of Revelation described the ‘’scarlet whore of Babylon.” In the Middle Ages, red was the color of majesty; it was the color of the banners of the Byzantine Empire, and the Emperor Charlemagne painted his palace red and wore red shoes as symbol of his authority. In Christianity it represented the blood of Christ and the Christian martyrs; in 1295 it became the color worn by Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church. Merchants and ordinary people wore clothing dyed with madder at celebrations. Nobles and merchants wore the more intense red made with Kermes. In the 16th century, Spanish merchants began to import cochineal into Europe, which made an even more brilliant red; it became the fashion color of the aristocracy.

Red also played an important role in the culture of Imperial China. In Chinese philosophy, red represented fire, one of the five elements. During the Zhou, Han, Jin, Song and Ming Dynasties, red was considered a noble color, and it was featured in all court ceremonies, from coronations to sacrificial offerings, and weddings. The gates of imperial palaces were usually painted red. Chinese artisans used the mineral cinnebar to produce the famous vermilion or “Chinese red” color of Chinese lacquerware.

During the French Revolution, some of the revolutionaries began to wear a red Phrygian cap, or liberty cap, modeled after the caps worn by freed slaves in Ancient Rome, and to carry red flags. In the mid-19th century, red became the color of a new political and social movement, socialism. It became the color of the worker's movement, of the French Revolution of 1848, of the Paris Commune in 1870, and of socialist parties across Europe.

In 1826 the organic compound alizarin, the coloring ingredient of madder, was discovered and in 1848 it was synthesized; it was cheaper and made a more lasting color, and quickly replaced natural vegetable dyes. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the German chemical industry invented two new synthetic red pigments: cadmium red, which was the color of natural vermilion, and Mars red, which was a synthetic red ochre. 19th century artists adopted the color alizarin crimson. In the 19th century artists also began to use red to create specific emotions, not just to imitate nature; Vincent Van Gogh wrote in 1888, “I sought to express with red and green the terrible human passions.”

In the 20th century, red was the color of revolution; it was the color of the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917 and of the Chinese Revolution of 1949, and later of the Cultural Revolution. Red was the color of Communist Parties from Eastern Europe to Cuba to Vietnam.

In nature, the red color of blood comes from hemoglobin, the iron-containing protein found in the red blood cells of all vertebrates. The red color of the Grand Canyon and other geological features is caused by hematite or red ochre, both forms of iron oxide. It also causes the red color of the planet Mars. The red sky at sunset and sunrise is caused by an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering, which, when the sun is low or below the horizon, increases the red-wavelength light that reaches the eye. The color of autumn leaves is caused by pigments called anthocyanins, which are produced towards the end of summer, when the green chlorophyll is no longer produced.
One to two percent of the human population has red hair; the color is produced by high levels of the reddish pigment pheomelanin (which also accounts for the red color of the lips) and relatively low levels of the dark pigment eumelanin.

Since red is the color of blood, it has historically been associated with sacrifice, danger and courage. Modern surveys in the United States and Europe show red is also the color most commonly associated with heat, activity, passion, sexuality, anger, love and joy. In China and many other Asian countries it is the color of happiness.

Tips For Church Stage Design

Top 5 Nigerian-International Music Collabos 2015 Ranking

Last week saw the release of Davido‘s highly anticipated single, Fans Mi, which featured MMG rapper, Meek Mill. It’s part of a fast-growing trend where African acts collaborate with artists from over the water in attempts to gain fans in the worldwide market . Many of Africa’s top acts like Wizkid, Banky W, Sarkodie and P-Square all have international collabos in their CVs.

Davido’s Fans Mi was a solid body of work, but came under criticism for the sub par verse delivered by Meek Mill. The verse was somehow even worse than French Montana‘s agonising verse on Ice Prince’s I Swear.

These two rappers are actually good rappers, and those verses are probably the worst in their catalogs. But does this mean that international artists don’t bring their A-game when our acts feature them?

Thankfully, the answer to that is no. There have been plenty dope international collabos in the Nigerian musicosphere, and to show that, I’d be ranking the top 5.

   5 Wizkid and Wale – Drop
Wale is Nigerian by birth yeah yeah, but he doesn’t ply his trade here, hence this qualifies as an international collaboration.

Wale has constantly reiterated his status as a Nigerian, and has spoken of coming back to Nigeria to help develop the industry here. His first feature on a Nigerian’s song was Wizkid on the hit party jam, Drop.

Wale showed his skill and versatility as a rapper, fitting seamlessly into an afropop beat and even infusing a little Yoruba into his lyrics. And with Wizkid’s special power of freestyling, there was no way this song was not gonna hit.

4 P-Square and T. I. – Ejeajo
P-Square’s EjeAjo was one of 3 singles released for the brothers’ 6th album, Double Trouble.

Double Trouble was coming at a time when the P-Square brand had conquered everywhere in Africa, with the next conquest facing them being the international market.

The first attempt at that was EjeAjo, a feel-good tune laced on a fast-paced jazzy beat that was definitely not meant for places like Quilox and Liquid Lounge.

The initial response to the song in Nigeria was slow, particularly because it was different. But over time, the track’s happiness, the amazing dance moves (which even radiated into T.I’s body but showed only a little because, gangsta) and T.I’s dope, dope finish.

   3 P-Square and Rick Ross – Beautiful Onyinye
P-Square have 4 international collaborations to their name, and the second one, Beautiful Onyinye, is arguably their best.

P-Square, who started off their career with soft love romantic songs like Senorita, Omoge Mi and later on No One Like You, went back to that path, singing a song for their Beautiful Onyinye.

Known for his grunts and his boss lifestyle, Rick Ross came on what was a beautiful song and killed it with a superb verse. And even though it was supposed to be a love song, the Mississippi-born rapper couldn’t help but show his bossness with lyrics like “We talking money here you talking nonsense.”

Easily one of the best rap/sung collaborations in Nigerian music, and I’m sure Rick Ross still wonders what “wombolo wombolo eh” means.

   2 D’banj, Don Jazzy and Snoop Dogg – Mr. Endowed remix
The original song, Mr. Endowed, came at the peak of the Mo’Hits in the Nigerian music industry. It was the time when D’banj was officially the greatest artiste in Nigeria, Don Jazzy was the greatest producer, and with Sesan Ogunro automatically becoming the top video director.

The three combined to make Mr. Endowed a massive hit, and spiritually (because it is not physically possible) made Mr. Endowed remix somehow a bigger, better hit. D’banj had previously spoken about his affiliations with his “uncle” Snoop Dogg, and it was a pleasant not-so-much of a surprise to see him on the song.

The veteran rapper showed his class and why he was highly respected as he dropped a fire verse for his “nephew from Nigeria,” and with modifications from the original beat by Don Papa J, and another dope video by Sesan, made this a jam for the ages.

1 Vector and Mavado – Born Leader.
Vector is one of a number of Nigerian artists whose careers have been affected by record label issues. Some, like Brymo, handled it well and moved on. Others like Kel, not so much.

Vector still has just two official albums in his discography (and a number of tapes), but he also has what is arguably the greatest international collaboration in the history of Nigerian music with Born Leader.

Partnering with Jamaican dancehall legend Mavado, Born Leader will also go down as one of Nigeria’s best ever rap songs. Vector, who is known more for his playful corny bars, dumped all that and went hard, spitting heavy lines like “the only poor trait I have is a painted picture.”

Honorable mentions include P-Square’s Chop My Money remix and Davido’s Dami Duro remix (both with Akon), and Eldee’s Big Boy remix with Yung Joc.
