Rihanna and Chris Brown Cozy Up at Grammys, Blow Up Twitter, Polarize Fans

Chris Brown and Rihanna didn't perform together at the 2013 Grammys last night. Nor did they walk the red carpet as a couple, each arriving separately.

Yet the R&B stars may have been the night's top story.
The singers spent the entire night cozying up to each other in the audience, as CBS cameras frequently went to the controversial couple for reaction shots.
It was a very public display of affection and a signal to the world that Chris Brown and Rihanna are back together, no matter what you might think of it.
As expected, viewer reactions were mixed, and heated.
On the eve of the '09 Grammys, Brown shocked the industry and world when he assaulted then-girlfriend Rihanna, whose bruised face became a tabloid fixture.
Four years is a long time, but it was still amazing to see Rihanna, decked out in a red dress and smiling ear to ear, photographed leaning her head on Brown.
All night long. Think she's trying to make a point or something?
This actually wasn't their most shocking appearance in tandem this month. Rihanna stuck by her man and showed up in court with him last week.
Brown is accused of violating his probation by submitting false community service records ... in connection with his sentence for assaulting Rihanna.
Yet there she was in court, by his side. In a recent interview, Rihanna said dating Brown makes her happy and “if it’s a mistake, it’s my mistake.”
Think we're getting the picture, even if ......

Pope Benedict XVI made a shocking announcement during a meeting of Vatican cardinals today:

He will become the first pontiff in 600 years to resign his post later this month, citing health concerns as the basis for a decision that will officially take place on February 28.
According to The Associated Press, the 85-year old believes that his advanced age and diminishing strength make it difficult to fulfill the job.
"Strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me," the pope told the cardinals, according to the Vatican.
The last pope to resign was Gregory XII in 1415. He took that step to end a civil war within the church in which multiple men claimed to be hold the position.
Benedict's reign as pope has been marred by a slew of scandals and controversies, including numerous allegations of sexual abuse by priests. He also joined Twitter in December.

Heard she's a female student of The University of Lagos – popularly known as Unilag and her friends snapped her excreting in a bucket in her room. She's very popular in the university and when she was asked her reason for doing it she plainly stated that her hall was overcrowded

''I decided to sh*t in my room due to the population of students in the hostel,the number of toilets here is small compare to the number of students residing here.The number of people ‘squating’ are more than those who even paid for rooms''

A Russian graduate student named Lesya Toumaniantz has allowed her boyfriend - a controversial artist named Rouslan Toumaniantz - to tattoo his name across her face.

Making this even more of an unusual move? The pair had known each other for 24 hours when the ink went down!
"It's a symbol of our eternal devotion. I'd like him to tattoo every inch of my body," Toumaniantz said on Facebook, adding that she plans to marry her very new beau.
The tattoo is of the name "Ruslan," written across both her cheeks in Gothic letters, five inches tall.
Somewhere, even Mike Tyson and the Mitt Romney face tattoo guy are shaking their heads over this decision.

A 9-year old girl, identified simply as "Dafne," reportedly gave birth via cesarean section on January 27 at Zoquipan Hospital in Jalisco, a town in western Mexico.
The girl became pregnant at 8 and her newborn daughter weighed in at 5.7 pounds, according to The London Telegraph.

The father of the child is allegedly 17 years old and is on the run, with Jorge Villasenor of the state prosecutors' office saying:
"We are looking for the young man to get his story because she does not understand what has happened. This is a rape or child sex abuse case."
Dafne, one of 11 kids herself, did not know she was pregnant until she was seven months along.
She resides in Ixtlahuacan de los Membrillos, a poverty-stricken neighborhood 25 miles south of Guadalajara.
“Her parents work all day and were not watching after her and therefore didn’t realize what was about to happen," Lino Ginzalez Corona, spokesperson at Jalisco State prosecutor’s office, told ABC News.

Ifeanyi Adefarasin's tribute to husband, Pastor Paul Adefarasin

The Senior Pastor of House on the Rock Pastor Paul Adefarasin turned 50 recently and got the most beautiful tribute from his wife of 18 years and mother of his three children, Ifeanyi Adefarasin. See the tribute below...

My dearest Adeolu (Paul)
It has taken some time for me to distill my thoughts and pen my tribute to Pastor Paul Adefarasin - the man I know. Though words are insufficient to capture the breadth of my thoughts, I'll try to give you the essence as I write about someone who is many things to me; as my best friend, my big brother, my boyfriend, my lover, my mentor, my coach, my greatest encourager, my husband, my pastor, my boss, my everything...after my Saviour Jesus Christ.

Where do I begin? I can barely recall my life without you, as for a greater part of my adult life, you have been such a strong and positive influence, instructing, directing, moulding and shaping me into the woman I am evolving into.
From our very first encounter, your passion for the things of God endeared you to me. In today's parlance, 'what's not to like?' - listening to a tall and handsome, cultured and eloquent, courteous, six foot three inches hunk of a man with an inimitable baritone, small wonder I am married to you today.

Woman Delivers Her Baby Inside Tricycle Popularly Called Keke Marwa

A woman, Mrs. Mutiat Aileru has delivered a baby girl in a tricycle in Abule-Egba area of Lagos.

The woman delivered the baby at about 5p.m. The reporter was walking by the roadside near Awori bus stop when a woman suddenly ran out of the commercial tricycle, Keke Marwa and raised the alarm that her relative was delivering a baby inside the tricycle they had boarded.

She had called for urgent help from the owners of the shops by the road and women promptly removed the wrappers on them to shield the woman in labour. The women rushed to pick her up, some cleaning her, others cuddling and others yet bringing accessories to assist in the delivery.

Prophet Ariyo Ajibola of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Erimo in Ijaiye-Ojokoro, who drove the tricycle, said: “It was at Ikeja computer village that the two women that followed the mother approached me to beg me to assist them to carry a pregnant woman to a hospital in Abule Egba.

Connecticut Couple Honored as 'Longest Married' in U.S.

A Connecticut couple who tied the knot over 80 years ago will be named the longest married couple in the U.S.

John and Ann Betar of Fairfield, Conn., said "I do" on Nov. 25, 1932, and have been happily married for 80 years. Together they have five children, 14 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.
The couple was selected for the 2013 award by Worldwide Marriage Encounter, a Christian marriage enrichment group based in San Bernardino, Calif., that organizes a search each year to promote the virtues of lasting marriages and inspire young couples.
"What an inspiration Mr. and Mrs. Betar are to all of us. They made a commitment to each other 80-plus years ago and they have kept that commitment over these many years. They truly are a sign of hope to us all," Worldwide Marriage Encounter's Ron and Judy Pekny said in a statement.
An award ceremony will take place on Saturday at the Fairfield, Conn., home of one of the Betars' granddaughters, Heather Mitchell.
