5 Reasons Kissing Is Good For You

We know kissing as a social pleasantry, the appropriate ending to a date and a means of connecting with our main squeeze. The collision of lips and tongues that we often take for granted has a whole lot more bubbling under the surface than what meets the eye. Swine flu scares and mono aside, kissing actually does a body very, very good. Read: Kissing Capital Of The World

1.) Kissing boosts immunity. A recent study reported in the journal Medical Hypotheses says kissing may increase a woman's immunity from Cytomegalovirus. Cytomegalovirus, contracted through mouth to mouth contact, can cause infant blindness and other birth defects if the mother is a carrier during pregnancy. Otherwise, the bug is relatively harmless in adults. Kissing has long been thought to be a way to pass along bugs and thus strengthen the body's defenses.

2.) Kissing helps you pick the best mate. Anthropologist Helen Fisher describes kissing as a "mate assessment tool." Read: Discover Your "Type" (It Really Exists)

Much of the cortex is devoted to picking up sensations from around the lips, cheeks, tongue and nose. Out of 12 cranial nerves, five of them are picking up the data from around the mouth. It is built to pick up the most sensitive feelings—the most intricate tastes and smells and touch and temperature. And when you're kissing somebody, you can really hear them and see them and feel them. So kissing is not just kissing. It is a profound advertisement of who you are, what you want and what you can give.

Other researchers note that kissing is biology's way of determining who in nature you are most genetically compatible with.

"At the moment of the kiss, there are hard-wired mechanisms that assess health, reproductive status and genetic compatibility," says Gordon G. Gallup Jr., a professor of evolutionary psychology at the State University of New York at Albany who studies reproductive competition and the biology of interpersonal attraction. "Therefore, what happens during that first kiss can be a make-or-break proposition."

3.) Kissing burns calories! Depending on different reports, anywhere from 2 to 6 calories a minute. Not quite a jog on the treadmill, but an hours worth of smooching may burn off half a handful of M&Ms or half a glass of wine. Hey, it's something. Read: Kissing & Being On Top

4.) Kissing keeps facial muscles strong. Sure tight abs or cellulite-free thighs may be first on the Tone Up list, but don't underestimate the workout your mouth gets during a makeout session. Researchers say you use 30 muscles while kissing and the smooching helps keep your cheeks tight. Nice. We'll take what we can get.
5.) Kissing naturally relaxes you. Scientific reports say kissing increases the levels of oxytocin, the body's natural calming chemical and also increased endorphins, the body's feel-good chemicals. Swapping spit is also noted to increase dopamine, which aids in feelings of romantic attachment. VIDEO: Are You Chemically Compatible?

Terry G- Change Am

Fresh off the heels of the release of “8th mainland bridge” – a collaborative project with his House of Gingah sound crew, Terry G heads back into the booth to record a new project. As expected, there’s not much real content on this one, but the hitman is sticking to his patented formula of catchy hooks and melodic beats, enough to indulge the toughest music critic.

If this record is anything to go by, then expect to hear more of the usual stuff from the gingah master.

NO MORE Nigezie ON HiTV,.....BYEEEEEE

Beginning in the final quarter of the year, the Nigezie bouquet of music programming will no longer be on the HiTV cable platform.

NET sources revealed that the relationship between the two companies had broken down completely and there were no signs of reconciliation. Furthermore, industry insiders say HiTV has already commissioned another outfit to conceptualise and produce it’s music content moving forward.

HiTV is owned and run by Toyin Subair while Nigezie is owned and run by Femi Aderibigbe a.k.a. Kwame. Our sources say both men, who once enjoyed a robust relationship, are no longer on talking terms and may be heading to court soon.

A Nigezie insider, who pleaded anonymity for fear of reprisal, told NET that the channel ‘will press for charges and use all legal means to get all the backlog of money HiTV is owing us. The company is also working on rolling out a set of new channels, while a big-budget purpose-built production studio is nearing completion.’

The Nigezie-HiTV controversy may come as a shock to many but those on the inside insist they’re not too surprised. ‘I saw it coming’ our source lets on, claiming the relationship was built more on trust, friendship and passion, instead of documents, deliverables and strict compliance.

This development is another blow for HiTV who recently lost the rights to air English Premier League matches in Nigeria for the next three years.

P-Square moves into Omole Mansion

Acquires N65m automobiles
Still basking in the euphoria of their success as the Best African Act, the duo of Paul and Peter Okoye [P Square], have indeed proved that the honour bestowed on them by KORA is not a fluke as their musical tour of the United States of America turned out to be a massive success.

The one and half month tour, which ended in New York City on 24 July, 2010, has been described as the most successful so far by an African based artiste in the United States.

During the tour, the E No Easy crooners performed in seven major cities; Houston, LA, Minnesota, Oakland, Maryland, Canada [Toronto] and New York. All the shows were sold out, and the least time P Square spent on stage in each of the shows was two and half hours.

In fact, it was gathered that the Maryland show was almost cancelled due to the fact that the crowd that besieged the venue to watch the Nigerian stars were more than the capacity of the venue.

During one of their performances, Peter was almost raped by some overzealous female fans, but was quickly rescued by Security Agents after the fans almost stripped him. No wonder he was named the sexiest celebrity by Silverbird Television [STV].

According to him, he and his twin brother, Paul, are yet to find the right words to describe the success of the tour, which has prompted American star singer, Drake, to approach them for a collabo.

“I don’t actually know how to explain how successful the tour was because aside the fact that all the shows were sold-out, the passion shown by the fans, particularly the white ones, was incredible. I never knew the Americans love us that much. Surprisingly, they knew the lyrics of our songs and were singing along,” Peter hinted.

P Square and its 12-man band, which include dancers and two bodyguards, were treated like Kings while the tour lasted. Aside being lodged in five star hotels, the tour organizers provided a Limousine ride and tight security for the Nigerian stars all through their stay in President Barack Obama’s country.

Due to popular demand, P Square is expected to continue the tour next year. Their performance train will then move to other American cities like Ohio, Chicago and Atlanta among others, where their fans are eagerly waiting to see them perform.

“They actually wanted us to visit all the cities before coming back to Nigeria, but we insisted that it should be postponed to next year because there are things we need to attend to back home,” said Peter.

Meanwhile, the multiple award-winning singers have finally moved into their N300million mansion in Lola Holloway Street, Omole Estate Phase 1. As part of the plans to move into the mansion in style, automobiles outfit, Coscharis, has made the delivery of four brand new wonder-on-wheels to P Square’s garage.

The new automobiles, two Rangerover Sports, one X6 BMW and a Jaguar, all 2010 models, costs P Square a whopping N65m.
