(Reuters) - The dwarfs and elves of "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" prevailed at the North American box office again over the weekend, as its $32.9 million in ticket sales topped both the star-packed musical "Les Miserables" and the western "Django Unchained."
Despite surging past "The Hobbit" on Christmas day with an $18.1 million opening, "Les Miz" managed only third place in U.S. and Canadian sales with $28 million as Christmas shoppers returned from the malls to boost Hollywood's box office, according to studio estimates.
"The Hobbit," in its third week of release, has now grossed $222.7 million domestically, Warner Bros said.
Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained," a western starring Jamie Fox as a slave turned bounty hunter, took second with an impressive $30.7 million.

Family: We break up to make up

Its the holidays, and we all know that during this season , extended and nuclear families re-unite to spend time with each other, celebrating the high's and the low's of the past while looking forward to the future.  When families come together it could either turn out good, bad or ugly....... or as a matter of fact, a mixed cocktail.

Through the Christmas holidays i hosted my husband's family in my home, and it started out alright but eventually the claws came out and it got quite ugly, but as a family we stuck through the crises, mended our broken hearts and now..... it's all good. 

Anyway through the whole experience i picked up two important values that i want to share;
  • Any action by a loved one (the keyword here is LOVE) which subsequently overtime still generates in you a negative reaction or resolution should be addressed one on one between you and the individual involved. Effective communication is a strong foundation for understanding, forgiveness and healing.
  • Walking away might seem like the easiest option but it takes a lion heart to weather the storm and ride the waves till peace and calm is restored. Never walk away from family, they may not be there when you decide to come back.
Remember love endures all things.Season Greetings to all the families out there. Peace and Love...........JCGold.

(Reuters) - The body of a woman, whose gang rape provoked protests and rare national debate about violence against women in India, arrived back in New Delhi on Sunday and was cremated at a private ceremony.

Scuffles broke out in central Delhi between police and protesters who say the government is doing too little to protect women. But the 2,000-strong rally was confined to a single area, unlike last week when protests raged up throughout the capital.

Riot police manned barricades along streets leading to India Gate war memorial - a focal point for demonstrators - and, at another gathering point - the centuries-old Jantar Mantar - protesters held banners reading "We want justice!" and "Capital punishment".

End Of The World 2012: Live Updates On The Mayan Apocalypse


As Dec. 21, 2012 fast approaches, doomsday-believers around the globe are bracing for what they believe will be the end of the world.

A Chinese inventor built "survival pods" to help him through the mayhem. A contractor developed underground bunkers to safeguard their Italian owners. And fare finder website Skyscanner reports its customers are showing an increasing interest in one-way tickets to "Apocalypse safe havens."
According to NASA, many Apocalypse fears originate in the belief that Niberiu, a planet allegedly discovered by the Sumerians, would hit planet Earth in May 2003. When the world did not perish, however, new claims were put forward that Nibiru would hit earth on Dec. 21, 2012 -- the day the Mayan long-count calendar ends.
NASA has gone out of its way to rebuke the doomsday fears, arguing "the world will not end in 2012. Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012."
Several governments, too, have reassured their citizens that the Apocalypse is nowhere near. According to a New York Times report, Russia's minister of emergency situations Vladimir Puchkov reassured the country's citizens on Friday he is sure the world will not end in December and that "he had access to methods of monitoring what is occurring on the planet Earth.” And the Vatican's top astronomer Rev. Jose Funes wrote in the Vatican's newspaper L'Osservatore Romano that the doomsday predictions are "not even worth discussing."

Ailing Nollywood actress, Ngozi Nwosu, seeks N6m –Cries, ‘I don’t have AIDS’


Ngozi Nwosu
A few months back, when hush-hush tales that the actress had contracted HIV/AIDS and cancer of the blood — said to be responsible for her frail looking — surfaced online, the once lively Nwosu kept mum and subsequently went underground. Many found it difficult to get the true picture.
It was not until Saturday December 15, 2012 when she appeared as a guest contestant on the popular TV game show — her first public outing since she fell ill – that her frail appearance caught the attention of many.
The actress was a recipient of the N1m that was won on the show to  aid her treatment and was assisted by entertainment journalist, Seun Oloketuyi, and fellow thespian Lillian Amah.
Narrating his encounter with her on the set of the programme, Oloketuyi said, “One of the first signs that things were no longer right with Ngozi was the fact that we had to delay recording because while everybody else was virtually fanning themselves due to the studio lights, Ngozi was shivering from cold, so much that the producers had to get her cardigans. I was flustered. When the programme eventually got underway, Ngozi still helped to answer some questions.”

4D scans show fetuses yawn in the womb




(Reuters) - Growing into a fully formed human being is a long process, and scientists have found that unborn babies not only hiccup, swallow and stretch in the womb, they yawn too.
Researchers who studied 4D scans of 15 healthy fetuses also said they think yawning is a developmental process which could potentially give doctors a new way to check on a baby's health.
While some scientists have previously suggested that fetuses yawn, others disagree and say it is nothing more than a developing baby opening and stretching its mouth.

Maximize your potential

Today's management tips is an excerpt from an interesting book i read this week "Profiting by experience" written by Fela Odueyungbo 

Are you presently a victim of the push of life? May be you are becoming irrelevant in your family or workplace, add to your knowledge.
The price of remaining ignorant over weighs the needed funds to improve yourself. 

Remember success comes to those who are success conscious  you will be what you desire to be depending on the dominating thoughts you permit to occupy your mind. Don't be satisfied with where you are, Destination disease is dangerous. 
As long as you are green, you are growing but as soon as you are ripe, you start to rot. This means that the day you stop growing, you forfeit your potential and that of your dependants. 

Getting to maximise your potential will cost you time. it does not come cheaply. It takes time to get to know people, build relationship with them and work together. It calls for personal development. 
t is what you know that counts, the price of accepting to stand on the sideline and refusing to improve leads to poverty, dejection and downtrodden spirit.

Take a plunge now, you are on the right path

Guess who is back?

Am just going to put the truth out there and you guys can make your conclusions. My hubby refused to pay the internet bills so i have been out for roughly two weeks, yeah what's a rich girl like me supposed to do.

Anyways it is what it is and here i am again, so deal with it.

STOP SIN BEFORE SIN STOPS YOU

The devil would rather that his own counsel be enforced in the earth realm than have God's counsel established instead.
Our struggle with sin is basically a manifestation of the war going on between the forces of good and evil in the spirit realm where the human mind is the battle ground and consequently the medium of expression in the earth realm.
Spirit beings cannot operate on the earth without a human body and as such there is constant contention for the body of man. Your body is the divine license you have to function on earth. Without it, you cannot operate.

And so Apostle Paul says, if you want to live a victorious life and dominion over sin, you will need to take full possession and control of your mind. "I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind i myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin".
What he is saying here is this, every time your focus is the flesh you serve the law of sin. When your mind is preoccupied with carnal things you become a salve to sin: you become helpless so much that even when you desire to do good, as long as you focus on the flesh, sin dominates and overpowers you.

How then do you engage your mind to serve the law of God for victory over sin then? By casting down evil imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.
Occupy your mind with the knowledge of the Word of God and through obedience to God and his word, and bring every contrary imagination into the captivity. 2 Cor 10:3-6.

Nollywood distress: Actor’s leg amputated

Pete Eneh

Just as Nollywood fans heaved a sigh of relief over veteran Enebeli Elebuwa’s steady recovery from stroke-related complications, another Thespian,  Pete Eneh, famous for his ‘fatherly’ roles in Nollywood films, has had one of his legs recently amputated by doctors at Parklane Hospital, Enugu.
Eneh’s travails began last year, after he sustained an injury that later led to a serious infection, thereby making treatment near impossible.
Feelers from his doctors show that the injury degenerated to a sore, which was further compounded by the fact that the actor was diabetic. He spent three months at the hospital before he was advised to get the leg amputated to reduce the risk of the infection spreading to other parts of his body.
The amputation took place on Wednesday, October 24 after efforts to save the leg was unsuccessful. The actor, who is often cast as Patience Ozukwu aka Mama Gee’s husband in movies,  is said to be taking the situation in his stride.
Eneh’s plight brings to the fore, the worsening health condition of some Nollywood practitioners, whose circumstances are generally compounded by financial constraints.
