They wore loincloths made out of tree bark, and lived in a timber hut raised five metres above the ground.

When the foragers saw the two ‘jungle men’ from a distance acting abnormally, they alerted local authorities.
Officials set up a team to track them down, and found them yesterday after a five-hour search.
The father could speak a little of the minority Cor language, but the son knew only a few words.
The pair are now undergoing medical check-ups as a first step to being reintegrated into mainstream society.

Student Unions Differ Over ASUU Strike

asuu


Following the inability of the the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, and the Federal Government to reach an agreement and end the strike embarked on by ASUU on July 1, students have reacted to the ongoing strike with differing views. Some students want ASUU to end the strike just for the sake of the students, while others believe the fight is better fought and won now.
It would be recalled that last executive members of the National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, led by the National Assistant Secretary, Mr. Ali Mohammed disowned the national president, Mr. Yinka Gbadebo, on what they referred to as “his support for the Federal Government in the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU.” Some members of the executive told newsmen that students were largely unbiased in the crisis and the inclination of Mr. Gbadebo to support the government was a deviation from the students’ collective goal of resolving the crisis.

Other reasons women (and even sometimes men) gave for enjoying s*x include “being with someone I love,” followed by “feeling good about my s*xual abilities” and “when my partner compliments me.”

Watermelon: The New s*x Drug For Men

download (17)


Men hoping for some fireworks in their love life this Fourth of July may want to skip the burgers and beer at the barbecue and eat plenty of…instead.
It turns out, watermelon may be a natural Viagra, says a researcher. That’s because the popular summer fruit is richer than experts believed in an amino acid called citrulline, which relaxes and dilates blood vessels much like Viagra and other drugs meant to treat erectile dysfunction (ED).
Until recently, many scientists thought most of the citrulline was in the watermelon rind. But now, experts have discovered that there is more citrulline in the edible part than previously believed.
Why does this work?
The amino acid citrulline is converted into the amino acid arginine. This is a precursor for nitric oxide, and the nitric oxide, a blood vessel relaxer that enhances circulation to all your vital parts.
How much watermelon should you eat?
A typical 4-ounce serving of watermelon (about 10 watermelon balls) has about 150 milligrams of citrulline.
