According to the Examiner, the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, has reportedly returned a free load of clothing from Kim Kardashian who recently launched a clothing line ‘The Kollection’, with her sister, Kourtney.
A palace insider is quoted as saying: ‘Kate is hardly going to turn up for an event with the queen in a cheap leopard-print mini-skirt or gold sequined jacket.’
The source also added that Kim invited Kate over for tea in an attempt to get a new royal best friend out of her recent trip to London. But once again, the Duchess politely turned down the offer.
‘She hoped Kate might be seen wearing one of the designs out in public, which would give their fashion credentials a huge boost,’
Mikel Obi has stated that his team will overcome a recent poor run in the EPL after they lost 2-1 at West Brom on Saturday.
Chelsea have not won a league game since their controversial 3-2 home loss to Manchester United last month.
They remain third on the table with 20 points behind United and new leaders Manchester City.
Mikel admitted to MTNFootball.com that Chelsea were not good enough against West Brom, but they would not dwell in the past as they hope to get back on track.
“It was painful we lost to West Brom. It was frustrating but I am looking forward to subsequent games rather than letting this loss weigh us down,” he stated.
“We have to return to winning matches so to be in line with our target which is winning titles. “I am sure these are temporary setback which we will overcome very soon.”
Heavily-pregnant Mercy Johnson and her husband were sighted last weekend at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja.
The amiable couple were on their way to the USA. A close family source said “Mercy is expected to be delivered of her first child in an American hospital.
The couple does not want to take any chances. And it’s the wish of the top actress to have her baby in the US.”
You have been in a relationship for a long time now but you somehow cannot get your man to propose marriage to you without looking desperate. If you are stuck in such a situation then here are a few things that you can do to make things work in your favor.
1. Don’t push him too hard
Pushing him and going on and on about getting married is going to make you look desperate and make him run in the opposite direction. You have to broach this issue in a far more delicate manner as you are actually asking him to give up his so called “freedom”. You will need to play some mind games here to make him propose marriage to you so gear up for the ride.
2. Begin talking about the future
Begin by talking about your future. It could be simple things such as planning where you would want to settle, how you would want to make your money grow, or simply suggesting that you move into a bigger place. This will give him an idea that you want to be in a committed relationship and get him thinking on the lines of marriage.
3. Talk about friends who are getting married
Subtle reminders of how friends are getting hitched, their wedding, and honeymoon plans etc will all serve as indicators that you want to head in that direction too.
4. If he asks for space give it to him
If he says that he needs a little space, give it to him. But giving space does not mean waiting in the gallows. So go out and have a fun time especially with your male friends in a strictly platonic manner. Your man will get the picture of what you want loud and clear
5. Begin making independent financial decisions
Start taking major financial decisions independently. Make him see that you are doing all the things that he would normally do. When he questions you, throw the “we are not married” line at him. It’s hitting below the belt but it works!
6. Talk to him about moving
Casually speak about moving cities to look for better career options. This should make him feel insecure and should prompt him to have “The Talk” with you. If he doesn’t still wake up you really have to take a look at your relationship and figure out if it has matured or not or if you need to give it a little more time.
7. Hand him an ultimatum
If you feel that you don’t want to wait around forever and that your man is refusing to wake up to the reality of eventually getting married, then hand him an ultimatum and let him know that despite loving him immensely you are not going to wait around forever. He will jump into action from there on!
BlackBerry Messenger gets free voice calls over Wi-Fi, available now
Research In Motion is not expected to release its next generation BlackBerry 10 handsets until the first quarter of 2013, but the company has something for its loyal users in the meantime: free Wi-Fi calling over BlackBerry Messenger. Version 7.0 of the popular messaging platform has just entered beta with a new feature called BBM Voice that will could provide a simple way for users to save on voice minutes.
The new feature is tightly integrated into the platform. BlackBerry Messenger will show who in your contact list is available to call using BBM Voice, and a simple press of the dial key will send a request to start a voice call. During calls users can jump into a split screen mode allowing them to talk, text and send images or other content at the same time with any BBM contact, or even switch to other applications.
BBM has long been touted as a key advantage of BlackBerry devices over the competition. And though it was quite disruptive at the time, similar cross-platform options like WhatsApp have since cropped up to lessen its appeal. The ability to make free calls over Wi-Fi is not new either, as applications like Viber have been doing that for a while and even support cellular data connections. Nevertheless, having the option baked into the OS presents some advantages, and might be a big deal in emerging markets where BlackBerry is still strong.
Although the ability to make free voice calls may sound as something that carriers would frown upon, it appears that they’re willing to play ball as long 3G/4G support remains out of the picture. James Tantram, senior product manager at RIM, tells The Verge that carriers believe BBM drives a lot of purchase decisions and making it more compelling means more people will want to sign up for the BBM plan or data plan.
BBM 7 with the new BBM Voice feature is currently available in beta form for BlackBerry smartphones running BlackBerry 6 OS or higher, with support planned for smartphones running BlackBerry 5 OS at a future date. The beta can be downloaded for free from BlackBerry Beta Zone.
