Anonymous Faction Launches Attacks Against ISIS

A division of the hacker group Anonymous says it has
hit two of ISIS’ most important web platforms. The
attacks come during a week in which it has gloated
online about the wave of deadly attacks carried out in
its name, including one day of attacks in Tunisia,
Kuwait and possibly France and the most recent
attack in Egypt.

Both of the cyber attacks occurred Wednesday,
perpetrated by the Anonymous-affiliated group
“GhostSec” which has declared war on ISIS and its
growing social media presence. The platforms attacked
by the hackers are mnbr.info , a prominent ISIS forum
used by the group’s supporters to communicate among
themselves, and nshr.me , a cloud service used by ISIS
followers to disseminate propaganda on social media
channels. The forum mnbr.info was hit with a DDOS
attack (Distributed Denial of Service), a brute force
attack usually used to make a server or a network
resource unavailable to users. It was back up shortly
after the attack, however nshr.me
remained down over 13 hours after the attack
occurred.

“Our mission is to eliminate the online presence of
Islamic extremist groups such as Islamic State (IS),
Al-Qaeda, Al-Nusra, Boko Haram and Al-Shabaab in
an effort to stymie their recruitment and limit their
ability to organize international terrorist efforts,” the
group has stated on its website.

This is the latest strike in the ongoing war between
Anonymous, its affiliates, and ISIS. Previous attacks
include an Anonymous takedown of prominent jihadi
forums used by ISIS members in February this year
and its creation of a hit list of “most prominent
enemy”

Why Mark Zuckerberg's Miscarriage Announcement Matters

Mark Zuckerberg on Friday did as so many people
have before him and gleefully announced the news of
a pregnancy on Facebook, the social network he
founded. Then he did something entirely off-script:
he revealed that he and his wife went through three
miscarriages before arriving at this happy
announcement.

“Most people don’t discuss miscarriages because you
worry your problems will distance you or reflect upon
you — as if you’re defective or did something to
cause this. So you struggle on your own,” he wrote.

“When we started talking to our friends, we realized
how frequently this happened — that many people we
knew had similar issues and that nearly all had
healthy children after all.” He went on to say that he
and his wife hope that by sharing their story, others
might feel more comfortable sharing theirs.
Despite the highly personal tone of his post, research
shows Zuckerberg is probably right.
Just last month, a study out of the Albert Einstein
College of Medicine and Montefiore Health System
indirectly supported Zuckerberg’s
assertion that miscarriage is rarely talked about.

A survey of over 1,000 men and women found that
participants wildly underestimated the frequency of
miscarriage and researchers speculated that it might
be the result of how taboo conversation is around the
topic. The majority—55 percent—believed that
it affects fewer than 6 percent of pregnancies. In
fact, miscarriage happens in an estimated 15 to 20
percent of known pregnancies.

The survey also revealed that 41 percent
of participants who had experienced a miscarriage, or
whose partner had experienced one, said they felt
alone in the experience. But the researchers did find
one thing that helped reduce feelings of isolation in 28
percent of respondents: public figures discussing their
own miscarriages.

Zuckerberg is also right that people often blame
themselves for miscarriages. The same study found
that 41 percent of participants who had experienced a
miscarriage reported that they felt they had done
something wrong, and 28 percent felt ashamed. This
builds on several past studies which have found that
guilt is a common reaction to miscarriage.

These feelings are supported by mistaken beliefs
about what causes miscarriages. An impressive
majority believed miscarriage could be caused by
stress (76 percent) or lifting a heavy object (64
percent). 22 percent of all participants believed that
“lifestyle choices” like using drugs, alcohol or tobacco
were the most common causes of miscarriage. Again,
people have it all wrong: Miscarriages are most often
caused by chromosomal abnormalities.

Zuckerberg’s anecdote about how most of his friends
who had miscarried went on to have successful
pregnancies might sound hollow, but it too is backed
up by data. One study found that only 1 to 2 percent
of women experience recurrent miscarriages. That’s
one way in which Zuckerberg’s experience actually
deviates from the data: most miscarriages are a one-
time thing.

THE VALUES OF DRINKING WATER ON AN EMPTY STOMACH EVERY MORNING

It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for
the following diseases: Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.

METHOD OF TREATMENT
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water

2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink
anything for 45 minute

3.. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.

4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours

5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4
glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.

6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure (30 days)
2. Gastric (10 days)
3. Diabetes (30 days)
4. Constipation (10 days)
5. Cancer (180 days)
6. TB (90 days)
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards –daily..

This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.

It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life. Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.

This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is
applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.

Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.

Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

A serious note about heart attacks:
· Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting,
· Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
· You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
· Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.
· 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are
asleep do not wake up.
· Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...

IBADAN: The City of Brown Roofs.

I am incurably attached to Ibadan. I was born and bred in that city and I'm always so nostalgic about that city of brown roofs. Apart from the hospitality of the people, one reason I'm in love with the city is the cost of living.

On Saturday, I took about 10 people for lunch at Mama Ope.If you don't know, Ibadan has many fantastic local eateries with specializations in different delicacies. For Mama Ope, no one in Ibadan does rice and beans like she does. Her fried stew comes with a special recipe. It's the same quality and taste anytime and has been like that for years- right from when she started in a small kiosk opposite Veterinary at Mokola. Of course, she not only prepares rice and beans but
she has other varieties also.

Inastrait is the best Amala and Abula (Gbegiri with ewedu) restaurant in the whole wide world ( Gbegiri is made from ground beans). Inastrait (adapted from the world "illiterate"- the late founder of the restaurant who was unlettered described herself as "Inastrait" and the name caught on) is seated on Mokola hills beside the Cultural Centre. Life is not complete without her steaming plate of Amala, Abula and goat meat. You even have the opportunity of looking into the
steaming pot of meat and choosing the particular meat you want. Life certainly doesn't come better than that. The late founder's daughter who now runs that restaurant embarrassed me one day when she greeted me in the presence of colleagues who came with me from Lagos, "E ku Ojo meta" (it's been a long while).
My colleagues wondered if she was my facebook fan. Before I finished the meal, she had sent a souvenir of face towel and ceramic cup as my gift to my table. So much for loyalty.

Then, there's Mama Soji on the way to Eleyele- not far from Magazine Road roundabout. Her pounded yam is the best in town. Off Adamasingba/Mokola Road and not far from Fessy Electronics is Mama Samson. If you want Amala as early as 7am, Mama Samson is the place to be. You just won't mind the fact that she keeps pets and some dogs will stroll around as you relish the hot plate of Amala- and my, oh my, she uses a lot of red oil for her soup that I often wondered if she was given free of charge. The way she handles the serving spoon and divides the actual soup from
the palm oil is reminiscent of the way the Red Sea was
parted. Of course, Mama Samson is our own Moses.

At Bodija Oju-Irin, in one container beside a mechanic village is another woman whose crowd competes with the queue at GTB branches. On one occasion years back, I took my Branch Manager and some visiting superiors to that eatery and the shock on their face was just too apparent. All of us were on a long queue with bowls in our hands and we pushed and shoved as we shouted, "Emi lo kan, e da mi lohun" (It is my turn, please attend to me). One of the people with me was sure the woman must have used juju and he asked us to leave immediately. That was the last time I went to that place. Her own specialty is also Amala.

In downtown Oniyanrin area is the famous Laskabo. Laskabo(a loose translation meaning 'my plate is full') is as old as the city itself. I remember sneaking out of church on Sundays when I was a teenager just to have a taste of her 'Amala Lafun'. I sneaked out as the pastor announced the title of the sermon and I was usually back before the sermon was over- my father always asked me for the topic of the sermon after
church.

Time will fail me to talk about Iya Ila who has an eatery on Ojoo road leading to Agbowo/UI. Her stock fish is her stock in trade. The woman who runs an eatery on Polytechnic/ Apete Road (opposite WAEC) prepares the best "Ogunfe" (goat meat) in town. She usually kills about 3 goats per day. At a time, there were about 4 major eateries at the back of First Bank on Secretariat, Agodi. That was the rendezvous for most civil servants some years back. I wonder if that joint is still there. Classic Food Canteen has colonized Iwo Road axis. Some years back, there was the rumour that she puts juju in her food and she was even
invited to a local radio programme- but she survived. Was she a victim of people who were jealous of her success? At Challenge axis (not far from Fidelity Bank) is also a very famous local eatery. I've forgotten her name but I used to send a runner to buy food from there back in those days. In Agbeni Market, anytime I visited a particular customer, I never left without being treated to her hospitality- a steaming bowl of Amala with "assorted" meat. For theuninitiated, "assorted" meat means "orisirisi"- from "roundabout", "nnkan inu-eran", "abodi" and "ponmo". If you have not eaten "agemawo" (ponmo with a bit of meat), you need to repent urgently because the time is at hand. And not
far from Adelabu Shopping Complex at Orita was one canteen where the woman was very popular for her "bush meat". On my way to Babcock years back, we used to stop over every evening to have our fill.

I'm sorry for digressing but back to my gist. After about 10 of us had our fill on Saturday ( pounded yam, Amala, rice and beans with guinea fowl meat, "bokoto", beef, etc), I almost entered a state of shock when I saw the bill- a paltry N7,850. That's an average of N785 per person. All the people with me burst out laughing- of course, they were Lagos people. A few weeks back, a local mechanic fixed my vehicle and collected N13,000 from me- labour inclusive. One
major car repair outlet in Victoria Island billed me N70,000 for the same issue and couldn't even fix the problem after collecting the 70k. Prior to that, another major service centre billed me N270,000 for the same problem. My Ibadan mechanic fixed it for 13k and the vehicle has been fine since.

Just yesterday, I heard about a guy who protested to his landlord because his rent on his 3-bedroom flat was
increased from N100,000 per annum to N120,000 per
annum. Yes, just a 20k increment. I can attest to that
because in 2000, my rent on a 2-bedroom flat less than 50k per annum and I always boasted that I never saved for rent in my life until I relocated to Lagos. When I moved to a 3-bedroom bungalow that had such space in the premises I could conveniently park over 20 cars, my starting rent was 75k per annum and then it was increased to 120k over a period of 3 years. That was in 2006-2008/9 thereabouts.

And so today, I brought my car for periodic maintenance to Akinloye, my Ibadan mechanic. The last time it clocked 5,000km and I took it to the service centre in VI, my bill was over 50k. Thinking of whiling away the time, I took a taxi drop from the mechanic village to Ventura Mall at Samonda. The taxi driver initially said N650 but I haggled and eventually, he took N150. I couldn't believe it. Coming back,i decided to take a proper taxi. That one took N30. I
had to forgo my change of N20 because I gave him N50. He thanked me profusely. And now my mechanic, after outlining the cost of all the things he bought, charged me 3k for labour.

I just love this city so much.

WORDS OF ADVISE ON MARRIAGE FOR WOMEN

1. The wife that wins all arguments with her husband is not wise. The home is not a law court.

2. The wife that uses sex as a weapon in the home - placing embargo, going to bed in jeans shorts and trousers - lacks wisdom.

3. The wife that uses the modern trends and laws of
"women's rights" to insult or ridicule her husband simply makes a fool of herself.

4. A woman that makes her home devoid of peace through bickering, nagging and quarrels needs help. A man should be eager to run away from office to be at home, for that should be the safest and cosiest place on earth for him.

5. Modern-day equality in marriage does not mean
competition. It simply means partnership. Taking advantage of such equality to turn around and become the de facto head of the home and oppress the man is tantamount to playing with fire. If you destroy your home, soon you will be the boss of an empty home.

6. A wise wife makes the man feel so good that he assumes that he is the head. Once he gets that feeling, the woman gently wields her power and the head actually turns to wherever the neck wants without a protest.

7. A wife that does not pull herself away from friends'
influence and advice or even from the control of her mother and father will have herself to blame.

8. When a man is looking for a wife, he bypasses women of different shapes and sizes to choose a wife. But soon after childbirth, many women hide under the excuse of childbirth to let go of themselves. Many stop bothering about their looks, shape, dressing, etc. Within 5 years of marriage, people start wondering if the wife is the man's aunt, even though she is 7 years younger. Her defence is that if he truly loves
her, he should love her the way she is, but when looking for a wife, he saw people like the present YOU and ignored them and settled for the former YOU. Today, you go to bed smelling of onions.... You go to bed wearing grandmothers' clothes. Why are you playing with your marriage? Love is not
about looks - we know. But looks enhances love and
marriage. There is a difference between someone disfiguring herself and the person being disfigured by an accident.Please don't be complacent. As hard as it may be, work on looking like you were when he first saw you and began the chase.

9. If every night you are tired, sleepy, sore, down with
headache or fever, "not in the mood," you are a joker, a
serious comedian!

10. If your children suddenly become more important to you than your husband, you need prayers.

11. If you assume that as the woman, only you need to be pampered and fussed over while the man is a stone that has no emotions, you need to be pitied.

12. A woman that has the mind of a wife does not excite her husband. Wives are usually complacent and presumptuous. A wife must strive to have the mind of a girlfriend. A girlfriend is always nicer, sweeter, more loving and always thinking of ways to wow her sweetheart; a girlfriend does not try to win
all arguments, does not call the man a "useless man", is not careless about her looks or dressing, always smiles and laughs with the man, sends the man sweet messages and calls, etc. Are you your husband's girlfriend in word and indeed?

Mississippi school district fined $7500 for opening assembly with prayer

Allowing a school assembly honoring high-achievers to
open with a prayer made one Mississippi school district
$7,500 poorer - and a student who sued $2,500
richer. The Rankin, Miss., public school district was hit with the fine after U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves said it
defied his prior order barring prayers school events.

According to the judge, the prayer violated a 2013 court settlement that ordered the district to stop
"proselytizing Christianity." The alleged violation, which
came at an assembly last year for students who scored above 22 on their ACT college admissions test, prompted the judge to apply fines for that and another incident, in which Gideons International was permitted to hand out Bibles to elementary school students.

"The district's breach did not take very long and it
occurred in a very bold way," Reeves wrote in his
judgment. "Its conduct displays that the district did not
make any effort to adhere to the agreed judgment."
Reeves also ordered the district to pay the student's
legal fees, an amount that will be determined at a later
date, and threatened a $10,000 fine for any future
infractions of the order.

The assembly at Brandon High School in May 2014
began with a prayer led by local Methodist pastor Rev.
Rob Gill. Although not mandatory, the assembly honored the district's students who scored higher than a 22 on their ACT college tests

The school district first came under legal fire when the
same student took the school district and the school's
then-principal, Charles Frazier, to court in 2013 for
forcing him to attend a series of assemblies that
promoted Christianity.

Attorneys for the school district have argued that Gill's
prayer did not violate the 2013 orders or the student's
First Amendment rights because attendance at the
assembly was optional. Reeves, however, believes the
district has been trying to indoctrinate students with
Christianity.

“From the accounts detailed in the record, it appears
that incorporating religious script and prayers with
school activities has been a long-standing tradition of
the district,” the judge argued.

In a statement issued by an attorney, Rankin County
Superintendent Lynn Weathersby said that despite the
court's ruling, students and teachers will continue to
pray. However, district staff will have to adjust in order
to comply with the ruling.

How to prevent Saggy Breast

What Causes Saggy Breasts
For starters, breasts do not have muscle, they
are made of fat, connective tissues and milk-
producing glands, and they need proper care to
keep them in good shape. Though saggy breasts
usually start happening after a woman reaches
40, it can occur earlier. According to various
studies, it is understood that when a woman
reaches her late thirties, the skin can become
loose and begin to show signs of aging.

According to the Oregon Institute of Breast
Health Education, this is especially true in the
breasts, particularly if a woman has gone
through a pregnancy.

Apart from age & pregnancy, other factors that
cause sagging breasts such as menopause,
rapid weight loss or gain, strenuous exercise,
nutritional deficiencies, smoking, over-tanning
and wearing a poorly fitting bra.

Many believe that breastfeeding can cause
sagging, but this is FALSE according to a 2008
study published in the Aesthetic Surgery
Journal which concluded that breastfeeding isn’t
a risk factor for ptosis (a fancy name for
drooping). The real culprit is actually pregnancy
itself, as weight gain during pregnancy can
cause ligaments to stretch, which can lead to
drooping later. You can minimize this issue by
making sure you stick to a relatively healthy
weight gain while you’re pregnant,

Some diseases like breast cancer or respiratory
conditions like tuberculosis can also cause
breasts to sag. Excessive consumption of
nicotine, alcohol and carbonated beverages can
also contribute to the problem.

A wide variety of creams and lotions are
available on the market to tighten and tone up
sagging breasts. However, if you prefer natural
methods, there are many simple and easy home
remedies that you can try.

How To Firm The Breasts
There are a number of home remedies for
regaining the firmness of saggy breasts,
including regular pectoral exercises, massaging,
masks, plant oils and essential oils in different
forms.

MAINTAIN AN OPTIMAL WEIGHT
If you are someone who struggles with weight,
and if gain and lose weight continuously and
fail to stay at a steady optimal weight, it could
take a toll on your breasts. Your skin, especially
over the breasts, loses elasticity when
stretched. Also when you lose weight, you can
lose fat from the breasts very fast as compared
to other parts of the body. This continuous
stretching and relaxing of the skin makes it
droop and sag over time.

DRINK PLENTY OF WATER
According to experts at the University of
Wisconsin Hospitals, the skin is
comprised of cells that are predominantly made
up of water. Lack of water takes a toll on the
skin, and can make the skin over your breast
look shrunken and dull. When there is less
water in your body the skin doesn’t receive the
requisite amount and might look flaky, dry and
get wrinkled. This could lead to premature aging
of the skin around the breasts making it lose
firmness and sag.

OKOROCHA BULLIES IMO WORKERS

Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has
resorted to bullying as a way of getting striking
Imo workers back on their duty posts. The
governor ordered the striking civil servants to
resume work immediately or risk being
summarily sacked.

The Governor seized the space provided by
some youths who some say were hired to pay
him a solidarity visit at the Government House,
Owerri, following massive criticism that has
trailed his government lately.

Okorocha who accused the workers of reneging
on the recent agreement it freely entered into
with the state government said the strike was
“illegal and would not be tolerated next time”.

It was the considered opinion of the Governor
that “the strike was politically motivated and
principally aimed at rubbishing the good
reputation of his administration”.

He wondered why civil servants should embark
on strike “because of just months of unpaid
salaries” owed by his administration but failed
to disclose whether his own salary was also in
arrears. .

Okorocha was particularly irked that no other
state went on strike over non-payment of
salaries, considering the economic meltdown
facing the country but failed to mention the
case of Osun, another APC governed state the
workers of which were on strike for several
months..

“I do not know of any other state whose
workers went on strike as a result of unpaid
salaries. Imo workers treated me unjustly by
embarking on the current industrial action”,
Okorocha said.

Explaining why he took the decision to sack the
striking workers if they fail to resume, the
Governor said a lot of youths in the state are in
need of employment.

Meanwhile, labour leaders in the state have
considered this as an act of intimidation and
have advised civil servants to ignore the threat
issued by the Governor, stressing that labour
may completely shut down the state if
government failed to pay their unpaid salaries.

Labour also ordered pensioners not to appear
before any verification team set up by the state
government, stressing this verification had been
conducted several times by the present
administration, without paying the pensions

Let’s Talk Girl to Girl! Kris Jenner FINALLY Meets With Caitlyn Jenner

The highly anticipated meeting between Caitlyn Jenner
and Kris Jenner has finally happened.

The two exes met at Caitlyn’s Malibu house on Tuesday July 28 for their first face-to-face get together, undoubtedly an emotional moment for both.

The 59-year-old reality star’s black Cadillac Escalade
emerged from the 65-year-old transgender’s driveway at 4:30pm after she spent 2 hours inside.

Kris, who openly struggled with the news of Caitlyn’s
transition on Keeping Up With the Kardashians , is the
last of the family members to meet Caitlyn.

Kris was also noticeably absent at the 2015 ESPYs,
where Caitlyn accepted the Arthur Ashe Courage Award, but she was watching. A source said:

“Kris isn’t at a place yet where she wants her
first meeting with Caitlyn to be televised.
The whole thing is still so out of her comfort
level. The relationship between Caitlyn and Kris
will be heavily addressed on [I Am Cait].

There is a lot of drama between them both and
they are both hurt by each others actions.’

Chris Brown Finally Goes To Church After 15 Years…Says It Has Changed Him

Everyday, we as children of God struggle to find a sense of purpose. Most times when we look to other means of fulfillment and then we return feeling lonely and empty.

Chris Brown opened up on his Instagram about his first visit to church in 15 years, and how it has changed the person that he is.

In the post, he highlights a number of problems in his
life, and how he has been able to overcome them.

The singer wrote:

“I really wanna take this time to thank God for
everything he’s done for me over the years. The
lessons and my personal mistakes I’ve experienced.

I’ve done a lot in this short time I’ve been on
this earth. I’m 26 but i feel 46 and I understand
a lot more as a man and a father.

Before I left the states for this tour run I was
able to go to church. I haven’t been in almost 15
years. HillsongLA!!!!!

It’s making me a better person and I appreciate
all the fans across the world who love me for
me. I’m not perfect by any means and no one
has to be. From Gangs to fights to beefs to
drugs and anything else frowned upon I’ve been
able to learn my own way and love myself and
continue to spread positivity and SMILE.

I feel comfortable in my own skin because man
cannot judge man. I want to continue my path
to be a legend. I want to always put a smile on
the faces of people who think about giving up.
Life isn’t about self all the time. Life is about
“Love”.

I was able to be inspired by one the the greatest
two human beings who ever lived. “Michael
Jackson” and “2pac”! Understand that religion
and the color of skin doesn’t make u any
different from the rest of us.

Your walk of life is yours and yours alone. Help
one another and build life! Just want to show
my appreciation! Love yall!”

Chris Brown Says He’s Tired Of Worshipping The Devil…And God Spoke To Him

Chris Brown has said that he is tired of the devil ruining his life.

In a recent Instagram post, the award-winning singer
blamed the devil for trying to ruin his life. He also talked
about thoughts of suicide and claims he’s heard God
speak to him for the very first time.

Here’s exactly what he wrote:

“When u tired of the fucking devil ruining your
life and u hear God speak for the first time.
No one knows what I deal with on a day to day.
The average man wouldn’t hesitate to blow his
fucking brains out but that’s the cowards way
out… Most won’t understand the genius and
beauty in change and learning and the people
who have devilish intentions will win in the
short term. My soul will always be pure of
heart.

What’s on the surface always looks like one big
party but inside there is a little boy looking for
help and guidance. People say “be a man”.

Yeah, that’s right but it doesn’t take away any
pain you really go through. I just wanna stay
out the way and do music. Most importantly
and great father.

I don’t have any more patience for anything that
will cause me to self destruct!!”

This guy needs all our prayers and support. He was a
young boy when all ‘these’ started and the devil
deceived him.

Chris, the good news is your soul was already bought by the blood of Christ even before you went into any evil pact. The bible says that “even the lawful captive shall be set free.”

In Isaiah chapter 49, verses 24 & 25, the New Living
Translation says:

“Who can snatch the plunder of war from the
hands of a warrior? Who can demand that a
tyrant let his captives go?”

“But the LORD says, “The captives of warriors
will be released, and the plunder of tyrants will
be retrieved. For I will fight those who fight you,
and I will save your children.””

This means if your choices have put you in a bad place,
when you SINCERELY ask God for help, He will come to
your aid. Read Psalm 121…declaring it into your life as
you wake up each morning.

David found his way back on the right path once when
he felt lost. And there was one night, I had an encounter with a strange and powerful demon. The Lord whispered the same psalm into my ears to use as a weapon. Yes, I won the battle.

I’ll say a prayer for you everyday brother, and I’ll
encourage others to do same. Hang in there.

Barack Obama Becomes First U.S. President to Address the African Union

ADDIS ABABA - President Barack Obama on Tuesday became the first American president to address the African Union in the institution’s 52-year history, a moment lauded for its historical significance but one that also underscored how far behind the U.S. is in investing in the continent.

Mr. Obama’s visit capped a five-day African trip where he pledged enhanced U.S. economic ties. The U.S., however, is playing catch-up to other world powers, particularly China,which built the 54-member

The president has made the case this week in Kenya and Ethiopia that African economies should embrace the U.S. over other world powers because America’s approach is not simply to give aid but to build the continent’s capacity to flourish on its own.

“Now, the United States isn’t the only country that sees your growth as an opportunity,” Mr. Obama told an enthusiastic audience on Tuesday in a hall named after the late South African leader Nelson Mandela.

“But economic relationships can’t simply be about building other countries’ infrastructure with foreign labor or extracting Africa’s natural resources,” he said. “Real economic partnerships have to be a good deal for Africa— they have to create jobs and capacity for Africans.”

Mr. Obama has also called on African leaders to end
widespread government corruption and advance democracy and human rights as part of the continent’s drive toward economic growth. At the same time, he used China as an example of how he engages with countries that don’t share U.S. governing values.

“I may interact with a government, out of necessity, where we have common interest,” Mr. Obama told civil-society leaders in Kenya on Sunday. “But if there are areas where I disagree, I will also be very blunt in my disagreement. And that’s true whether it’s Russia or China, or some of our European friends, or a great friend like Kenya.”

On Tuesday, Mr. Obama received some of his most
enthusiastic applause for sharp comments on democracy, particularly his calls for African leaders who cling to power without term limits.

“We all know what the ingredients of real democracy are. They include free and fair elections, freedom of speech and the press, freedom of assembly,” Mr. Obama said. “Democracy is not just formal elections.”

Mr. Obama singled out Ethiopia as a burgeoning democracy that held elections without violence. He did not, however, repeat his characterization of Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn as “democratically elected.”

In May, Mr. Desalegn extended his party’s 40-year-old rule in the country by winning 100% of parliament’s seats: All 547 legislators in the Ethiopian parliament are members of the ruling party and rights groups say opposition activists and media have been muzzled.

Mr. Obama’s decision to engage with leaders such as Mr. Desalegn rather than isolate them is fundamental to his approach to foreign policy and an acknowledgment that if he doesn’t another country will.

“These countries have options,” said a senior administration official traveling with the president. “It’s not as if they have nowhere to go. This is the world as it is, and engagement is our best lever.”

Mr. Obama used a personal anecdote to argue why term limits can benefit a democracy.

“I actually think I’m a pretty good president. I think if I ran I could win,” Mr. Obama said, referring to a third term. “But I can’t.”

The trip was a personal journey for Mr. Obama as the first African-American U.S. president, whose father was born in Kenya. His familial ties to Africa and the story of his ascent to the presidency gave added weight to his words for many Africans.

Mr. Obama, in Kenya and Ethiopia, focused on his two
signature Africa initiatives: a program for African farmers, Feed the Future; and one called Power Africa that is designed to expand access to electricity on the continent. He noted on Tuesday his plans to host a U.S.-Africa Business Forum next year focused on trade and investment.

“America’s approach to development—the central focus of our engagement with Africa—is focused on helping you build your own capacity to realize that vision,” Mr. Obama said.

He described engaging young Africans as the most urgent challenge facing the continent, given the growth in population and the spread of terrorist groups such as Somalia-based al- Shabaab.

Security threats are among Mr. Obama’s most pressing challenges in engaging Africa. Mr. Obama said this fall he’ll host a summit at the United Nations aimed at strengthening international support for peacekeeping, including in Africa.

“The choices made today will shape the trajectory of Africa for decades to come,” Mr. Obama said. “As you build the Africa you believe in, you will have no better partner and friend than the United States of America.”
