Throughout her time at Paris Fashion Week, Kendall Jenner has proven that she likes to keep things sheer. The supermodel was seen wearing yet another see-through item of clothing for Shiatzy Chen's runway show on Tuesday. Jenner went braless under a sheer pink shirt with delicate floral designs, paired with a metallic silver skirt and matching, lace-up shoes.
The 19-year-old hasn't been shy about showing off her nipple ring, which she says she got during a "rough time." "Honestly, it hurt, but wasn’t as bad as everyone made it seem, and maybe because everyone hyped it up and I thought it would be really, really bad," she told the New York Post. "Then it wasn’t as bad as I expected."

Meet Tony Robbins he is a Life coach, author, and multimillionaire, here his five tip to become a millionaire
It doesn't take financial wizardry or a winning lottery ticket to increase your net worth. A few smart moves could instantly make you richer.
In his new book, "Money: Master The Game," Tony Robbins shares five core strategies for achieving your financial goals faster.
Any one of them will put more cash on your personal balance sheet, but if you tackle several at once, "you'll be unstoppable," he says.
1. Save more and invest the difference.
Saving is not exactly sexy, but it's a highly effective strategy for growing your net worth. If you find a way to put more money aside and invest it smartly for compound growth, Robbins says you'll dramatically speed up your financial goals.
For those who feel they just can't squeeze any more out of their paychecks, he says it isn't as hard as it seems if you get creative.
For example, by making early principal payments on a traditional 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, you could pay off your home in half the time and spend almost 50% less.
2. Earn more and invest the difference.
One of the fastest ways to have more money is to make more. Robbins says the key to increasing your income is to become more valuable. Ask yourself: Are you in a company, location, and occupation where your skills are in demand? Does your compensation reflect the value you're providing, and is it time to ask for a raise or up your rates? Are there ways you can make additional income outside of your day job? If you commit to earning more, you will find a way, he says.
3. Reduce your fees and taxes, and invest the difference.
"It's not what you earn that matters, it's what you keep," Robbins says. Investing in high-cost mutual funds vs. low-cost index funds that mimic the performance of the entire stock market can cost you thousands of dollars over decades. He also notes that the average American spends more than half of their income on taxes (income tax, property tax, sales tax, etc.) in their lifetime.
Finding ways to reduce your investing fees and taxes will instantly put more money back in your pocket. One idea: Relocate to one of the seven states in the US — Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming — that doesn't have a state income tax.
4. Get better returns.
What's the difference between a 10% return and a 4% return? Robbins asks. A 10% return doubles your investment every 7.2 years, while a 4% return doubles every 18 years.
While many people think the secret to getting big returns is taking big risks, Robbins says highly successful investors look for asymmetric risk-reward, meaning big upside potential with little downside.
For instance, hedge-fund billionaire Paul Tudor Jones always looks for opportunities where if he risks $1, he thinks he can make $5.
5. Change your lifestyle.
You could make a big lifestyle change and move to a less expensive city or country (think Bali, Fiji, Costa Rica) today, says Robbins. Why wait for retirement? There are smaller lifestyle changes that could help you hold onto your cash, too.

13 ways to boost your relationship

Relationships

You may have heard that long-term relationships eventually and inevitably become flat and boring. Many people believe this myth and expect this to occur to them. When they experience moments in which feelings of attraction, desire, or sexual excitement are not powerfully stimulating, they assume that the flame has gone out and that the future is bleak and uninspiring. Possessed by this expectation, many couples' relationships face a downward trajectory that often ends in separation or worse.
After several years, it's easy to take for granted what we used to appreciate. Couples might slide into just being roommates or business partners, or, if they are raising children, co-parents. While important, if those roles come to define the relationship, the vital component of being lovers can get squeezed out.
Here are 13 steps to steam Up your relationship.
1. Identify which person can help deepen intimacy. In most relationships, there is one partner who places a higher value than the other on romance--and it's not always the woman. Since this person is more likely to notice when the romance is fading, he or she has more power to introduce corrections to foster more closeness and playfulness. They are not solely responsibility for keeping an eye on things, but because of their awareness, they are more capable of influencing the depth of your connection.
2. Keep dating each other. Dates aren't exclusively for young lovers; they can be magic for couples who have been together for a while. Leaving the home provides a change of scenery and enlivens things for both partners. But staying home for a date can be fun, too; you can dinner by candlelight, for example. Consider making dates a regular feature of your relationship. They don't have to be limited to a few hours on an occasional evening; they can last an entire day, weekend, or longer.
3. Go on a second (or third) honeymoon. Honeymoons (without the kids, of course) aren't just for the newly married. Taking one every year is not too much. Lots of people (including ourselves) make a tradition of this practice.
4. Unplug. Designate what we refer to as "sacred time" and create a tech-free zone which will assure you that there will be no interruptions to intimacy. Then, enjoy.
5. Pour a hot bath together. Some delightful ways of spending an evening together don't cost anything. Going into the tub with each other (by candlelight, of course), followed by more candlelight in the bedroom, is sure to enhance the spirit of romance.
6. Serve each other. Take turns being in service to each other. You can bathe each other and wash each other's hair. You could shave his face and he could shave your legs.
7. Feed each other. Agree beforehand to feed each other every forkful of a meal. We know some couples who have done this in restaurants, often to the surprise of other diners. Sit across the corner of the table so you can be close to each other. (Feeding each other also slows down the rate at which you eat, which is a good way to lose weight.)
8. Gaze into each others' eyes. Spend time being connected through your eyes only, without the need to exchange words. While this may seem a bit awkward at first, after a few minutes you'll begin to settle in to the experience and you may begin to experience some surprisingly delightful feelings.
9. Dance in private. After dinner you can listen to music together, and might even want to dance. If you'd prefer privacy, try dancing with your partner in your own living room or bedroom. (Another big advantage of dancing in your own home is that you can take your clothes off. You'll know for sure that you are not roommates or business partners when you're dancing nude!)
10. Give each other massages. Massage is another great way to keep romance alive. You don't need a massage table or fancy scented oils--and you don't have to be a professionally-trained masseuse or masseur to bring a loving touch.
11. Read poetry together. Reading love poems to each other brings sweetness. If you enjoy the exotic, consider poetry from Rumi, Hafiz, or Kabir.
12. Hide love notes for your partner to find. Love notes stuck in books, under plates and pillows, and in the underwear drawer are sure to draw smiles of appreciation.
13. Speak the language of love to each other. Last, but not least, is the way lovers talk romantic talk. It needs to be sincere, intimate, and full of feeling from the heart.

Everyone has a different love story. For some, their great love mirrors the movies. For others, love isn't a fairy tale. All love is unique and individualized, and truly amazing.
The kind of man you should marry is someone you're madly in love with. He should be nothing less than amazing. Love and marriage are special, so the man you marry should be, too. You know you've found someone special when you've found the kind of man who has some, all, or most of the qualities on this list.
1. He makes you feel relaxed.
You don't have to be "on" around him. You're able to just be yourself. You're comfortable crying in front of him, yelling in front him, and even having quiet moments. He's seen the good, the bad, the hungover... and he still loves you.
2. He makes you happy.
He makes you smile more than you frown. When you're with him, you're really, really happy. He treats you like a queen and does everything he can to make you happy.
3. You're attracted to him.
You find yourself beyond attracted to him. Sometimes you look at him and you think, "Daaaaamn." He may not be everyone's cup of tea, but to you, he's a god.
4. He's loyal.
Your future husband should be loyal and 400 percent committed to you. He should only have eyes for you. You never have to worry about him being unfaithful, because he's all yours.
5. He's a good listener.
The man you marry should listen to you, and I mean really listen. He should pay attention to what you say. He lets you vent, regardless of the subject. A man who truly loves you cares about what you have to say.
6. He's thoughtful and romantic.
A man who is thoughtful is a keeper. He should show you he's considerate by doing things just to put a smile on your face. He knows it's the little things that count. He does anything he can to make you feel special.
7. He's sweet.
He's kind and loving because he cares about you and your feelings. He's affectionate because he can't help himself. He's sweet to you in private, and of course, in public, too. He can't wait to kiss you each and every morning and night.
8. He appreciates you.
He tells you out of the blue that you look beautiful. He raves to his friends about you because he knows you're special. He knows he's lucky to have you in his life, and he never lets you forget it.
9. He fits into your life.
He spends time with your family and you've gotten to know his. He makes an effort to be present in your life and engages the people you love. He cares about your friends and wants them to like him. He fits into your life perfectly.
10. He's willing to do anything for you.
He makes sacrifices for you because he knows it will make you happy. He plans things he knows you will enjoy. He's willing to do anything for you, because he loves you.
The man you marry should make you feel grateful and oh so blessed.

APC In Panic Mode Because Agbaje Will Win In Lagos – Fani- Kayode

Politics

PEOPLES Democratic Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO said yesterday that President Goodluck Jonathan was still committed to conducting free, fair and credible election today.
According to PDP, the opposition should count itself lucky that President Jonathan did not reject the outcome of March 28 presidential election and refused to go to court and challenge the results.
Jimi Agbaje
In a statement yesterday by the Director of Media and Publicy, PDPPCO, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode said, “They should thank their lucky stars that we have a President who saw fit to concede victory and behave like a gentleman rather than cause a stir by rejecting the results and going to court.”
Fani-Kayode described allegations by the All Progressive Congress (APC) that President Jonathan planned to rig today’s governorship election in Lagos in favour of the candidate of the PDP, Mr Jimi Agbaje were far from the truth.
According to Fani- Kayode, the APC in panic mode because it knows that Agbaje will win the election, adding that this was the first time in 16 years that the APC together with the opposition was facing a formidable challenge from a governorship candidate of the PDP, Mr Agbaje.
Fani- Kayode said, “Once again the APC has degenerated into a party of liars who have little or no shame. It is not true that the President has any rigging plan for Lagos and neither do we need any such plan because our party is very strong there.
“The problem that the APC has and the reason that they make such asinine and silly allegations is because they actually believe that they own Lagos state and all those that live there.
“They are now in a state of panic because for the first time in 16 years they are facing a formidable challenge and they know that Jimi Agbaje of the PDP is likely to win. The truth is that there was no secret meeting in which rigging was planned by the President and neither is it true that materials were smuggled in to rig Lagos state.
“The only people that are interested in rigging and in milking any cash cows are the APC themselves and they can rest assured that we will resist them at all levels. We will not only keep them on their toes at the Federal level by being eternally vigilant but we will also provide them with the most aggressive, relentless, focused and assertive opposition that Nigeria has ever known.
“President Jonathan simply conceded defeat in the Presidential election but this does not in any way mean that we have lost our nerve and neither does it represent a capitulation of our convictions or a collapse of our firm resolve.
“We shall continue to assist in moving this great country forward and to contribute to public discourse and national affairs.
“Jonathan conceded defeat and congratulated General Buhari even though there were many question marks about the card readers, the role of INEC and the so-called votes that APC allegedly won in Kano, Katsina, Jigawa, Kaduna and in one or two others places in the north.
“The figures for the APC were inflated in those states whilst the votes that Jonathan scored were purposely suppressed and reduced in places like Abia and other parts of the east by INEC. This is the bitter truth even though many people are reluctant to say it or admit it.
“Till today, many of us are wondering what really happened to the INEC commissioner in Kano and whether it is true that he and his whole family were murdered after he privately expressed his misgivings and regrets about inflating the figures for the APC during the presidential elections.
“Rather than spitting in Jonathan’s face and rejecting his friendly handshake by accusing him of plotting to rig Lagos, the APC should keep their mouths shut and bury their heads in shame for what they and their friends in INEC did during the presidential election.
“President Jonathan chose that course and opted for a peaceful resolution only out of concern for the stability of our country and for the sake of the welfare and peace of Nigeria.
“If he had done anything else or if he had protested the results of the election many innocent people, including our members and supporters, would have been slaughtered like flies all over the north and everyone knows this.
“Despite our peaceful and law-abiding disposition the APC should not mistake our gentility, our willingness to overlook their criminal behavior and our readiness to let bygones be bygones as weakness.
“The truth is that even with all the rigging that they did in the presidential elections they only defeated us by 2 million votes. Their candidate got 14 million votes whilst ours got 12 million.
“The more the APC makes baseless and absurd allegations against our President and our party, the more we shall question their so-called victory at the presidential election and expose the truth. They should enjoy their so-called victory at the federal level quietly and stop attempting to intimidate us, disturb our peace or label us as a party of riggers.
“They have also accused us of using ethnicity and religion in politics. This is absolute rubbish and it is a lie from the pit of hell. With what the Oba of Lagos said a few days ago we know which party is led by the ethnic and religious bigots in Nigerian politics and that party is not the PDP. It is the leadership of the APC and not the PDP that used religion and is still using religion in a shameful and provocative manner to garner votes and to win popular support in this country regardless of the dangerous consequences of doing so.
“We reject their sordid allegations and claims and we look forward to winning convincingly in Lagos, Rivers, Delta, Taraba and many other states in the April 11th elections.
“Whether anyone likes it or not the PDP is here to stay. Our heads may have been bloodied but they are not bowed. We shall continue to make our contributions to national discourse, we shall continue to engage our adversaries in the political space and we shall continue to fight our corner come what may.”

“Rather than spitting in Jonathan’s face and rejecting his friendly handshake by accusing him of plotting to rig Lagos, the APC should keep their mouths shut and bury their heads in shame for what they and their friends in INEC did during the presidential election.
“President Jonathan chose that course and opted for a peaceful resolution only out of concern for the stability of our country and for the sake of the welfare and peace of Nigeria.
“If he had done anything else or if he had protested the results of the election many innocent people, including our members and supporters, would have been slaughtered like flies all over the north and everyone knows this.
“Despite our peaceful and law-abiding disposition the APC should not mistake our gentility, our willingness to overlook their criminal behavior and our readiness to let bygones be bygones as weakness.
“The truth is that even with all the rigging that they did in the presidential elections they only defeated us by 2 million votes. Their candidate got 14 million votes whilst ours got 12 million.
“The more the APC makes baseless and absurd allegations against our President and our party, the more we shall question their so-called victory at the presidential election and expose the truth. They should enjoy their so-called victory at the federal level quietly and stop attempting to intimidate us, disturb our peace or label us as a party of riggers.
“They have also accused us of using ethnicity and religion in politics. This is absolute rubbish and it is a lie from the pit of hell. With what the Oba of Lagos said a few days ago we know which party is led by the ethnic and religious bigots in Nigerian politics and that party is not the PDP. It is the leadership of the APC and not the PDP that used religion and is still using religion in a shameful and provocative manner to garner votes and to win popular support in this country regardless of the dangerous consequences of doing so.
“We reject their sordid allegations and claims and we look forward to winning convincingly in Lagos, Rivers, Delta, Taraba and many other states in the April 11th elections.
“Whether anyone likes it or not the PDP is here to stay. Our heads may have been bloodied but they are not bowed. We shall continue to make our contributions to national discourse, we shall continue to engage our adversaries in the political space and we shall continue to fight our corner come what may.”
