Photos: 19years old Girl Got Pregnant, Aborted The Baby Only To Discover 3 Months Later That She Was Still Pregnant!
Shannon Skinner, 19, had the abortion when she was eight weeks pregnant, having decided it was too soon to have a second child.
She and her 24 years old partner Anthony Hunt already have a 9 month old child.
But in a rare occurrence, the abortion failed and Shannon continued having morning sickness and feeling movements in her womb.
Doctors told her they were side effects of the abortion, but after three months, tests revealed the mother-of-one was pregnant - and her baby daughter had miraculously survived the induced miscarriage.
Scans have since shown that her baby looks physically fine and she is due to be born on May 7.
According to Shannon:
'We thought she had gone. I had grieved for that baby and we'd just managed to get our heads around it. Anthony and I felt like we'd made the right decision because we were having problems and we didn't think it was right to bring a baby into that.
I'd always been one of those people that was against abortions and hated them but I was suffering with post-natal depression. Lacie was just four months old at the time, so I had to do what I thought was best. But it was not an easy decision and I regretted it straight away after it and even at the time didn't know if I was doing the right thing.
The couple have been told that survival after a medical abortion occurs in just three per cent of cases.
They are still inside the legal 24-week termination limit but the couple say their baby girl is now too old and has been put through too much.
Ms Skinner, a stay-at-home mother, said:
We've now decided to keep the baby, as we don't feel it's right to have an abortion at this stage. She's obviously a little fighter, and we don't want to cause her any more harm. When I had the abortion it didn't feel the same as it does now - we have seen her and her heartbeat.'

Mohammed Ibrahim, Islamic teacher arraigned for raping two pupils
The incident was said to have happened in the Surulere area of Lagos and on the school's premises.
Ibrahim, an indigene of Niger State, was said to have raped the six and seven year olds in the toilet during school hours.
It was learnt that the defendant had only been appointed to teach primary three pupil Islamic Studies in the Muslim school in August 2013.
It was said that he was placed on a salary of N10,000 per month which he accepted to take. However, on December 18, 2013 he allegedly asked the victims (names withheld) to help him fetch water and take it to the toilet.
He was said to have followed them there, undressed them and had carnal knowledge of them. The victims were said to have cried while the act was on, which attracted the attention of other kids. Ibrahim allegedly pushed them out and pretended as if nothing had happened. The victims were said to have been invited and interrogated by another teacher, who then related their confession to the school management.
The defendant was subsequently arrested and he allegedly confessed to the crime. The police arraigned him on Monday on two counts of rape.
The charge read, "That you, Mohammed Ibrahim, on December 18, 2013, at 11am at Al Adab Nursery and Primary School, Abalti Barracks Surulere, Lagos in the Lagos Magisterial District, did forcefully have unlawful sexual intercourse with a child named (name withheld) aged six years, which caused her harm.
"That you on the same date, time and place, did unlawfully have sexual intercourse with a child (name withheld) aged 7 years, which caused her harm."
The prosecutor, Inspector Richard Odige, said the offence was punishable under Section 137 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, Nigeria 2011.
Ibrahim said he was not guilty of the offence.
The affected kids were also in court with their parents.
The defence counsel, Melda Bambo, appealed to the court to grant Ibrahim bail in liberal terms.
The magistrate, Mrs Demi Ajayi, admitted him to bail in the sum of N1m with two sureties each in like sum. The matter was adjourned till January 29, 2014.

Khloe Kardashian Claims Her Mum Wanted Her to Get a Nose Job When She was 9!
"Words are the most powerful weapon; they can leave scars forever. She didn't mean harm, but when I was around nine I overheard my mom telling her friend I needed a nose job. I was shocked; I hadn't even thought about it.
"I've grown into my face but I've had makeup artists tell me, 'You should get a nose job.' I'm so happy that I never have …"
She also revealed she never had a nose job.
*That Kris of a woman is weird...
Make it your resolution to rid yourself of these dating habits to be a dating rock star in 2014!
1. Stop Oversharing On The First Date
I remember during the end of one first date, he exclaimed how much fun he was having, and shared that on his last date, the woman revealed she was a rape victim before they had even ordered. That was inappropriate on her part (although she's probably trying to work through and heal from the situation). It was even more inappropriate for him to tell this story — especially in the form of an anecdote.
2. Lying About Little Things
You shouldn't lie about big things, such as marital status either, but little white lies suck, too. I've come across so many guys who lie about their height, where they live, their course and level in school, name of their school or even their position at work. Women lie, too. Ladies — he will eventually find out that isn't your real hair, he will know you've got a fake ass and you use push up bra. Is it worth the fib? That's BS(bullshit)
3. Dominating The Conversation
A conversation requires a minimum of two partners. At the end of every conversation, you both should feel as if you've said all that you needed to say and you've learned the information that you were seeking. A great trick is to ask a question right in the middle of a story that you're telling. If you're telling him about a recent road trip, don't just ask if he's ever been on one. Ask if he's ever wanted to go on one and why. Allow him to answer and then proceed.
4. Texting
Your phone should remain in your bag or pocket. If you're expecting a call or message, go to the bathroom to check it.
5. Drunk Dating
Dates aren't the best places to get drunk, even if they're really bad. Have you ever been on a second date with someone who got drunk on the first one? Exactly.
6. Not Dressing For The Occasion
Would you go to a funeral in hot Pink? Would you go swimming in sweats? Then why the heck would you go on a hiking date in heels or to dinner in cut-offs? Now, if the person didn't tell you what occasion to dress for, it's their bad — and a habit they need to work on.
7. Stop Petting The Awkward Turtle
The Awkward Turtle is the animal mascot of the awkward moment. I love this little homeboy, but leave him at home. To avoid bringing him out don't ask questions about their ex, and definitely don't ask the dreaded question, "Why are you single?". That question sucks argggghhhhh
8. EX-plaining way too much
I'm not talking about providing more details about a certain topic. I'm referring to the terrible habit of bringing up your ex during every conversation. Not only on a date but with friends, co-workers, nail technicians, baristas and oh yeah on your social networks.
9. Hating On Yourself
It's great that you don't spend the entire date humble bragging or showing off Instagram photos with celebs. But don't talk how much you think you suck at so-and-so... because eventually they might agree with you.
10. Instagramming Your Food
This goes back to texting, but some people will break out the phone for the house special so I felt I had to include it. This takes away from the moment. If you're excited about your new look or sth you just got, share it with your date instead of your followers.
11. Going Back To The Future
You should look fly, but you're not Marty Mcfly so I'm going to need you to remain in the present. Don't talk about the fact you want a surrogate to maintain your figure or you want your mom to live with you guys. Keep it current. Keep it casual!
12. Actin' Brand New
Be yourself and don't try to be who you think they'd want to date. You might miss out on a great person because they may actually want to date the real you.

Photos: Check Out This Woman Who Owns One Of The World's Largest Butts
She has to wear extra large trousers and once managed to crack a toilet bowl just by sitting on it.
The Chicago mother-of-two's behind measures an impressive 7ft in diameter and sometimes proves too large to fit through doorways.
Sarah explains:
'Everyday I get some kind of comment thrown at me, both good and bad - I used to be ashamed but now I hold my head high,'
At school I was teased and called Dump Truck Butt by the other kids, but the condition. is hereditary - there's nothing I can do about it. I went through a stage of worrying what people think, but now I want to show the world I am proud to be me.
Some people can't believe one person can have this much butt. It's definitely not fake. Big bootys are just in my blood. Apart from my younger sister, the women in my family all have large behinds.
Despite being proud of her record-breaking behind, 32-stone Ms Massey admits that living with a super-sized bottom isn't always easy and receives £750 in disability benefit each month as a result of having limited mobility.
Butt or we say UKWU??? Lol You like?
Simeon Obodo, Nigerian Killed In India, Buried In His Hometown in Imo State
Talking with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja on Monday, a representative of the family, Ejike Esinkoye, said the funeral service of Mr. Obodo took place on Monday and he expressed dismay that the Federal Government did not send any official delegation to the burial.
He also said that the family had yet to receive any compensation or assistance from the India government.
You recall that Simeon's murder during a violent clash in Goa village, India, sparked a diplomatic row between both countries.
Around 200 Nigerians in India protested Mr. Obodo's murder by blocking a national highway and ended up clashing with locals and police in the area.
Fifty-three of the protesting Nigerians were arrested and later released, after paying fees to secure their release.
According to a biography published by the family, Mr. Obodo was born on Nov. 1, 1977, he worked and lived in Port Harcourt before travelling to Liberia in 2009.
Mr. Obodo, who left Nigeria for India on January 9 before his unfortunate death on October 30, few days to his 36th birthday, is survived by an aged mother, daughter and wife.
May his soul rest in perfect peace.
Group Moves To Rename 'Nollywood' As 'Naiwood'
Cos, according to them :
The name Nollywood is stained with Tribalism. Nollywood @ 20 was organized and celebrated with the support of just 1 association out of the many in the movie industry.
Speaking with entertainment reporters, Yomi said:
At the inception of the name Nollywood, we all embraced it with open arms without
even probing the source. As time went by, few flashes of some ill motives surfaced. See! If this Nollywood thing continues or let me say the agenda behind it, Nigeria may begin to spilt from there. Too many tribalism.
Journalists that have been reporting or writing about movies in Nigeria some 30yrs and above will wonder what Nollywood stands for and why 20 years. We inherited film making, we had legendary filmmakers in Nigeria before then.
In an unjust society where inequality, tribalism, sentiment is the order of the day, SILENCE IS A SIN. We wish to set the record straight, film making started in Nigeria 70 years ago.
Nollywood name is not a unifying factor. We can't fold our arms and watch them sweep under the carpet the effort of our veterans with an acronym (Nollywood).
That acronym NOLLYWOOD is not acceptable by us, if it represents 20 years.
NAIJA (Nigeria) is a film, football and oil country. Nigerian movie industry - NAIWOOD, is the right name for the right naija film history.
The change is already in the pipeline and no matter how long it takes, the genuine vanguards will not stop.
It's not a fight against an individual or group of people. We are fighting against injustice to history and heritage.
We the Progressives in ANTP of the movie industry, irrespective of tribe and religion, wish to be referred with that acronym henceforth, and we mean every word of it.
Photos: Female Suicide Bomber Blows Up Train Station, Kills 16!
According to reports, the blast was carried out by a female suicide bomber who detonated her explosives in front of a metal detector just inside the main entrance of the train station.
One woman had a narrow escape when she left the station just moments before the bomb went off, reports CBS News's Holly Williams.
"I saw people running," she said. "Human flesh all around, shattered glass and broken doors. I saw smoke, but I didn't understand what was going on."
This would be the second deadly attack on Russia in just two months as Russia prepares to host the 2014 Winter Olympics in the Black Sea city of Sochi in less than six weeks' time.
In October, another female suicide bomber blew herself up on a city bus in Volgograd, killing six people and injuring about 30.
CHEATING GIRLFRIEND SIGNS
1. She is not herself
Does your ladylove appear lost in thoughts? Does her demeanour seem changed to you? Does she look distant and you know it is nothing at work or home that could be troubling her? Well, all of this might spell trouble in your land of romance! She may just be dwelling on thoughts of another guy, so beware!
2. Long Calls
It is unusual for partners to be away on long calls when together. To especially seek a remote corner or make sure one is out of hearing range is a sure way of arousing suspicion.
3. Messaging Away
Does she keep texting while you are driving, watching a movie together or out on a dinner date? That is definitely not a good sign, unless she is helping her friend out in an emergency. You need to find out who she is constantly sending messages to.
4. Dispassionate Kisses
Kissing is one of the most telling signs of romance and intimacy between two people. How she kisses you or the way she responds to your kisses tells a lot about her feelings for you. If you feel that of late the act has been lacking passion, and for no particular reason you can identify, you may just be the victim of cheating, buddy!
5. Sudden Marks could be Hiccies
An unfaithful girlfriend would go to any length to hide from you any signs of her other affair. Look out for those marks on her neck. They may not be inconsequential wounds, but possibly love bites!
6. Not Interested in S*x
Is she disinterested in s*x? Does she keep making excuses each time you wish to get cosy? Is she distant when you do make out? Well, she may just be having a better romp in the bed with someone else. Watch out!
Open Letter To The Headies By HILARIOUS!!! Angry Nigerian Music Fan(Must Read)
Dear headies 2013 organizers,
Let me start by saying i am not just disappointed in you but u have just proved to us that Nigeria is not getting better any time soon . you have been manipulated by a greedy and hopeless telecommunications company ( mtn) because they sponsored your event and you forgot the ultimate rule that awards are meant to be impartial and should be decided by the general public especially when u told us to vote . you distributed the awards among 4 mtn ambassadors ( iyanya , davido , praiz , and kcee ) and just 1 glo ambassador won ( waje ) . Is that not politics or is it coincidence? Now let us analyze.
The headies 2013 was a flop , your stage was shaped like a models runway , the choreographers just lacked ideas and didn ' t interpret the music , i have seen a better performance from Nigeria' s got talent. What was the gulder ultimate search theme song that was being played throughout the event ? Who on earth uses the mavin slaves - dr sit and tiwa gabbage as presenters of an event ? Oh I forgot , the awards lacked credibility and substance. Why did majority of the winners come from backstage , instead of coming from the crowd like it should be ? I watched nickelodeon kids choice awards this year and it is far better than the over hyped headies which was not properly planned and hurriedly done # shame
Can you explain to us how olamide won best rap album? olamide has commercialized rap , we cannot tell if he is a rapper or a singer. As far as i am concerned , he is just an entertainer like dbanj . so where does vector, phyno, reminisce, ice prince and illbliss who represent real hip hop/ rap stand? Don' t forget that there is a big difference between commercial rap and real rap . all he sings about is remind us that he is from the street but to be sincere terry g is more street than olamide and terry is not even a rapper #justsaying
How can harry song win most mtn most downloaded caller tune song for rip Mandela? when did Mandela die and do u want to compare that dead song with other club bangers in the same category ? Simple , it is because harrysong is a label mate to your mtn ambassador (kcee ) . In my opinion jawon , waje ,2 face , Clarence peters , blackmagic and davido deserved there awards. how can wizkid not win any award ? Someone who has been the most consistent and sought after this year . i am sure wizkid declined an interview from you that ' s why he didn ' t win. in fact wizzy should be the artiste of the year . Why did dbanj, burnaboy , wandecoal , psquare, flavour not win anything? oh i know why, it is because they are Glo ambassadors.
Now explain to me why Sean tizzle won the next rated award and he was in the same category as burna boy who is obviously more relevant and talented . We all know Sean tizzle has the same old boring style and we can always predict his next song . Phyno too deserved the next rated award and how on planet earth did d- tunes win producer of the year ? Someone who recycled 1 beat 5 times ( kukere, your waist , mama eh, lenu by spicy , kilogbe) . so where does ace producer del b that produced the national anthem limpopo stand ? You are all insane!!!!!!
Infact, headies, mtn and Pdp should merge and start a new political party for the upcoming election in 2015 . it should be named mhdp ( mtn headies democratic party) . we all know exactly what happened , mtn agreed to sponsor your event and they gave you the list of who should win. our votes did not count ; do you think we are blind and foolish like yourself? Instead of your greedy mtn sponsors to improve their network, reduce tariffs and contribute to the growth of the nation, they will be sending me sms on how they gave free ipad and mp3 to those who sent a sms to a code . They spend all their time looking for how to extort customers and scam us with their ridiculous offers ( free airplane and a trip to the moon )
i am sorry to say sir but if u continues this way your company will fold up and collapse because you are not an epitome of integrity . i am speaking on behalf of majority of Nigerians who know the truth and are not afraid to say it . those who feel this letter is nonsense should not forget to curse , insult and threaten me on @ baddestdjtimmy. after my last 2 open letters, i have been insulted , chewed up, spit out, as being very jobless, hopeless and a broke laptop dj. you guys don' t know how much i love the insults so it means i am doing a good job and it makes me stronger . So in conclusion , if u have the opportunity to host another award show , learn from your mistakes and let our votes count this time . Let those who deserve it win, is that too much to ask?

HOW TO MAKE YOUR GIRLFRIEND JEALOUS
Your girl maybe feeling miserable, but to see her that way is a pure sinful joy. And if you are looking for some ways to fodder her jealousy pangs, read on:
1. Get Closer… to the 'Other Woman'
Come on, you can afford that much risk. Just hold her hand, not in a romantic gesturethough. Just make a 'see you' promise to her while cupping her hands and watch your girlfriends eyes fixed forever on that little shake of hands. Let the questions barge in now!
2. Compliment Someone She Hates
Yeah, this might sound like taking it too far, but where is the fun in NOT taking it too far? You are making her jealous on purpose. You can be bad. You can be evil.
3. "Woo! What a Hot Chick!"
How many times have you almost uttered these words when you are with your girl, and then stopped yourself right there on the edge? This time round, just let the words flow. Make sure you utter these words loud and clear while you are ogling that hot chick at the places you meant to ogle in the first place.
4. Flirt With Her Best Friend
That's the first thing you thought of, didn't you? But then, the 'what will she think' questions started bothering you soon enough. She will think exactly what you want her to think, and don't worry about her friend, she too will enjoy the attention. Best would be to inform her in advance of your intentions. That way you have to worry about one thing less.
5. Hang Out With Other Girls
Go a yard further. Hang out with other girls a more frequently than you usually do. And making your intent very clear is advisable. Who knows, you may be an unrecognizedCasanova, who melts a girl's heart in just a date!
There are also a number of copy and paste ways to grill her with jealousy but having passed off all the gyan to you, one thing that is worth mentioning is that yours might be a girl who does not show jealousy traits easily. Rather she might retaliate by hanging out with other guys, clicking pictures with them and saying stuff like, 'oh he is so much fun'. In such a scenario, make sure that jealousy doesn't drip like sweat from your body.
Mother Arrested On Christmas Day For Killing Her Teen Daughter
According to the Casa Grande, Ariz., Police Department, Connie Villa, 35, allegedly attempted to kill all of four her children and her ex-husband Adam Villa on Dec. 25.
She has been charged with first-degree murder for the death of her daughter, 13-year-old Aniarael Macias, who was found dead in the family apartment bathroom.
Police said they believe that Villa called her ex-husband to come over on Christmas Day so that she could kill him. After he arrived, she allegedly stabbed him repeatedly in the torso, police said. Adam Villa was able to escape and call the police as he drove himself to the hospital.
When police arrived at Villa's apartment, they forced open the door and found her holding a knife to her chest with apparent self-inflicted stab wounds on her torso.
Villa's three younger children, ages 3, 5, and 8, were also found without any stab wounds. Macias' body was found in the bathroom, but she had no visible injuries, Casa Grande Police Department spokesman Thomas Anderson said.
After the younger children were taken to the hospital, trace amounts of opiates were found in their system. Police say they suspect Villa was trying to poison her children.
An autopsy conducted on Anariel on Saturday was inconclusive.
"We are anxiously awaiting the results of the toxicology report to determine that [cause of death]," Anderson said. "Evidence found on scene and interviews of the children give us cause to believe Aniarael was also given some type of prescription narcotic drug."
Connie Villa and Adam Villa were treated at two different hospitals and Adam Villa remained hospitalized today in stable condition. Although Adam Villa is the father of Connie Villa's three younger children, he is not the biological father of Aniarael Macias.
According to police, Aniarael's biological father has been working with investigators since the incident occurred.
Murder Convict May Be Freed by Appeals Court
Connie Villa was taken into custody by police this morning after she was released from the hospital.
In addition to the first degree murder charge, she faces four charges of attempted murder for allegedly trying to kill Adam Villa and her three younger children. The investigation is ongoing and Villa could face additional charges.
Her three younger children are under the care of Adam Villa's family, while he remains in the hospital, police said.

Alleged US Spy Drone That Crashed Into A Home In Ibadan Was A Toy - New Report
According to Nigerian Tribune, aviation sources said the spacecraft, suspected to be United States' latest spying venture in Nigeria, with registration number TX 5803, inscribed on a black battery was a drone which must have taken off from NASA base in Texas in the US.
That the battery attached to the spacecraft powered it and enabled it to move around so that it could do the bidding of those who sent it.
The craft, which was said to have dropped down from the orbit, flew into a toilet in the house of Ashipa of Awotan, Chief Tajudeen Adetoro, a few minutes after his grandson, Afeez Adewale and daughter-in-law, Adikat, left the toilet where they had gone to ease themselves.
Chief Adetoro said the mysterious aircraft forced itself into his toilet through the roof making a deafening sound.
That it could have killed Afeez and his mother, if it had met them in the toilet.
But according to new reports today, a shocked Chairman of the Local Government Area where the 'crash' happened, Professor Olowofela described the media report as very unfortunate and misleading.
According to him:
What happened was that a man was playing with a toy with his son and the toy got lost only to be discovered by a neighbor and instead of searching for the owner of the toy, the neighbour kept it in his home for a week . And the next thing was to read on a newspaper that a spy object lost control and crashed into a resident's home", he said.
The owner of the kite- like object, Sunday Folayan, an Electronic engineer and the Vice President, Nigeria Internet Registration Association, also expressed shock at the reported crash.
Folayan ,who is also into orbit, is the owner of Skynet , a service provider company based in Ibadan, accompanied the Chairman, top local government officials, the police, SSS and other security men to recover the toy on Sunday.
Folayan who claimed to have produced many similar toys for his son in the past explained that he was playing with his son with the battery propelled toy when it got missing and all effort to retrieve it failed last week Sunday.
He gave a vivid description of the toy which he produced for his son:
"The weight of the toy is 0.8 kilogram with the shape of an i-pad . It cannot run more than 15 minutes . It is not solar panelled, but uses battery and a remote control."
However, the residents of the sleepy community told Sunday Tribune that the object was not a toy due to the fearful noise it made and the way it flew about, adding that it could be an explosive.
When it flew out, we rushed after it and it was found hanging on the antennae of our neighbour...making a terrible noise and emitting heavy smoke," Chief Adetoro narrated.
He said they ran for safety on hearing the loud bang made on the roof of their house only to discover that the object had entered the toilet hitting its wall in an attempt to exit.

Millionaire Mindset – 5 Habits Of Wealthy People
In other words, even with the grimmest of financial forecasts, you can still make it to the land of milk and honey by changing some your habits and thinking.
1. The Wealthy Live That #FabulousNFrugalLife: One of the key habits of the self-made wealthy is that they track their spending. Every penny has a position in their multi-millionaire dollar empire. In other words, they keep a budget and are able to differentiate between a want and a need. If you need a budget starter tip, try the 50-30-20 rule. Use 50% of your income for your needs, 30% for your wants, and 20% for your savings and investing. If you want to jumpstart your journey to wealth, flip those last two percentages: save and invest 30% of your income and use 20% of your income for your fun, wants, and desires.
2. The Wealthy Take Their Grateful Pill Every Morning: Instead of complaining about what isn't working and what has yet to come, try coping an attitude of gratefulness. Being grateful is like a muscle. When you are training yourself to be grateful for the little or the simple, you are preparing yourself to both attract and appreciate the greater and the grander.
3. The Wealthy Have a Crew and Seek to Expand It Strategically: The saying "misery loves company" is only partially true. Wealthy folk are about networking, meeting, mentoring, being mentored in order to form meaningful relationships that will result in big dollar bottom lines for all involved.
4. The Wealthy Live In the Slow Lane: Most wealthy folk are not the stars of our favorite ratchet reality show, athletes, or entertainers. A lot of self-made millionaires are those boring people that worked a side-hustle until it became full-fledged, consistently and faithfully invested their money over several decades, and took deliberate risks. Translation: turn off the T.V. and pick up a book, or speak to a financial advisor.
5. The Wealthy Don't Believe In Luck: With the exception of lottery winners, the wealthy are never surprised when they check their accounts and see the obscene number of zeros at the bottom of their statements. Whether it be a life committed to frugal living, investing, and/or entrepreneurship, the wealthy knew exactly what they wanted for their wallets and stuck to their vision, through the ups and downs of the economies, through financial obligations to the families, and through uncertainties. They chose to be wealthy and did not stop until it happened.

BREAKING NEWS: There Is No Hell Fire; Adam & Eve Not Real ––– Pope Francis Exposes
In his latest revelations, Pope Francis said:
"Through humility, soul searching, and prayerful contemplation we have gained a new understanding of certain dogmas. The church no longer believes in a literal hell where people suffer. This doctrine is incompatible with the infinite love of God. God is not a judge but a friend and a lover of humanity. God seeks not to condemn but only to embrace. Like the fable of Adam and Eve, we see hell as a literary device. Hell is merely a metaphor for the isolated soul, which like all souls ultimately will be united in love with God."
In a shocking speech that is reverberating across the world, Pope Francis declared that:
"All religions are true, because they are true in the hearts of all those who believe in them. What other kind of truth is there? In the past, the church has been harsh on those it deemed morally wrong or sinful. Today, we no longer judge. Like a loving father, we never condemn our children. Our church is big enough for heterosexuals and homosexuals, for the pro-life and the pro-choice! For conservatives and liberals, even communists are welcome and have joined us. We all love and worship the same God."
In the last six months, Catholic cardinals, bishops and theologians have been deliberating in the Vatican City, in discussing the future of the church and redefining long-held Catholic doctrines and dogmas. The Third Vatican Council, is the largest and most important since the Second Vatican Council was concluded in 1962.
Pope Francis convened the new council to "finally finish the work of the Second Vatican Council."
The Third Vatican Council concluded with Pope Francis announcing that…
Catholicism is now a "modern and reasonable religion, which has undergone evolutionary changes. The time has come to abandon all intolerance. We must recognize that religious truth evolves and changes. Truth is not absolute or set in stone. Even atheists acknowledge the divine. Through acts of love and charity the atheist acknowledges God as well, and redeems his own soul, becoming an active participant in the redemption of humanity."
One statement in the Pope's speech has sent traditionalists into a fit of confusion and hysteria…
"God is changing and evolving as we are, For God lives in us and in our hearts. When we spread love and kindness in the world, we touch our own divinity and recognize it. The Bible is a beautiful holy book, but like all great and ancient works, some passages are outdated. Some even call for intolerance or judgement. The time has come to see these verses as later interpolations, contrary to the message of love and truth, which otherwise radiates through scripture. In accordance with our new understanding, we will begin to ordain women as cardinals, bishops and priests. In the future, it is my hope that we will have a woman pope one day. Let no door be closed to women that is open to men!"
A few cardinals in the Catholic church are against Pope Francis' latest declarations. Watch out for the report.

Does Rob Kardashian Have A Son??
During a recent gathering, Star Magazine sources say Rob told friends that a teddy bear sitting on his best was "for his son."
And this isn't the first time Rob has made such a reference. In May, he deleted the following message on Instagram, but not before it got burned in to the Internet forever:
"Shout to to God … Shout out Mom, shout out to my son's mom cuz she been holding me down since high school n shout out to my son Robert the Third. lol"
The tabloid says "no one" in the family will discuss the possibility that Rob may have a child, but that these rumors have been around for awhile.
Kris Jenner, meanwhile, has supposedly tried to keep the chatter at bay.
"Any time it's even mentioned, Kris changes the subject," alleges a family insider. "For whatever reason, Kris is fearful that Rob being a father could hurt the [Kardashian] brand."
Governor Adams Oshiomhole Survives Road Accident
Governor Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole survived a motor accident at Ewu Village along the ever-busy Benin-Auchi road in Edo State at about 9.45am Saturday, 28th December 2013 on his way back to Benin City from his Iyamho Village. The incident occurred at about 9.45am at Ewu, in Edo Central Senatorial District, when a Peugeot J5 Bus filled with tomatoes and plantains apparently lost control and rammed into the Governor's Flag Car from the opposite direction before swerving into a roadside ditch.
Three vehicles in the Governor's convoy were in front of the Governor's Flag Car and had passed the Peugeot J5 Bus before it [J5 Bus] had direct impact with the Governor's car, which had the Governor, his Aide-De-Camp [ADC] and his Driver as occupants. The Governor's Car was badly affected but both occupants of the Peugeot J5 Bus and that of the Governor's sustained no injuries.
The Peugeot J5 Bus was following a truck that was descending the Ewu Slope when it suddenly veered off into the Governor's lane from the opposite direction and directly impacted on the Governor's vehicle, apparently because of brake failure. The good story is that nobody sustained injuries in both vehicles. The Comrade Governor is hale and hearty, his ADC and other occupants of the Peugeot J5 are also in good condition.
The incident has been reported to the Divisional Police Station at Ewu for further investigation. This is to assure all good people of Edo State that there is no cause for alarm. Their loving Comrade Governor is fine, hale and hearty as well as other occupants of the other affected vehicle. The Comrade Governor is wishing everyone a prosperous new year ahead.

Kicked pregnant woman: Lebanese boss arrested
A pic of the woman who lost her pregnancy, Alexandra Ossai, above. She confirmed that Mr Noine had assaulted her several times during her short stay at the company and indeed kicked her in the stomach few days before she lost her pregnancy. Alexandra also said the Lebanese manager was in the habit of physically assaulting other workers whenever he felt they stepped out of line.
Not only will Mr Noine face justice for what he did to Alexandra, but the Lagos State government via the Lagos State Public Advice Centre, also wants to bring other assault charges against him. They plan to visit the company and talk with other workers and find out if more people were abused by him. (Photo source - Punch)

Android facts you probably did not know
• It almost didn't work out: Android almost immediately ran out of cash after its founding, only to be saved, according to the Businessweek, by Steve Perlman.
• The Nexus line was a hot rumour years before the Nexus One: People started predicting about the "gPhone" as early as 2007 though Nexus came out in 2010.
• Microsoft thought it would be a non-event: Microsoft's Scott Horn, then head of the Windows Mobile marketing team, had told Engadget after Android's release, "I don't understand the impact they are going to have."
• Resolution scaling was introduced in Version 1.6: The ability to automatically scale images based on display size appeared in Donut, or Android 1.6, paving the way for the huge range of device form factors on the Android market today.
• There's an Android phone in space: A British firm launched a Nexus phone on Space, to control a satellite as part of an experiment and see how well consumer-grade electronics stand up to the rigors of space.
• Every app you run on your Android phone gets its own virtual machine: Each active app on an Android device runs in its own Dalvik VM, which keeps it safe and separate from core functions. This improves battery life and boosts performance of the phone.
• The first official version code name was NOT a dessert: Google's Dan Morrill confirmed in January that the very first alpha version of Android released to internal developers was R2-D2.

Judge a man by his shoes
There are numerous styles of shoes out there, but what’s great about being a man is that you can do perfectly well by sticking with just a few. If you invest in a handful of sensible (and stylish) pairs and take care of them, you’ll be set for years. Good news is you don’t have to spend a fortune or go for the Italian brands to get the high quality and style you desire, St David’s brand, experts in leather craft, with a special focus on shoes, a purely Nigerian brand, is here to satisfy that need.

4 Lies Women Tell Their Friends About Men
You'd be hard-pressed to be among a group of ladies with nothing to say regarding your relationship. So if one of your best friends is gabbing more than a "Chatty Cathy" doll, avoid these 5 lies women tell each other about men and dating:
4. "He's probably just busy." When you first started dating, he showed up regularly with flowers and couldn't stop whispering sweet nothings into your ear. But now? You're lucky if he returns your phone calls because he's sooo busy. Your BFF may console you otherwise, but bottom line is we all have the same amount of hours in our day. Break free, girl. There are plenty of fish in the sea who will make time to take your bait no matter when the tide is receding.
3. "I know exactly how you feel." Um. No. You don't. Perhaps your friend has dealt with a similar circumstance, but the only way for her to know how you feel is to be you. Everyone's feelings are unique to themselves. She might have some good advice, but in my experience "I know exactly how you feel" is more of a redirect to make conversation about herself than to input any life-altering suggestions. Proceed with caution.
2. "He's cheating on you." Okay, Miss Negative Nancy, he fell asleep and forgot to text you one night. It's not like he called you someone else's name in the middle of s*x or didn't invite you to his birthday dinner. Just because your friend's ex cheated on her with a stripper named Princess doesn't mean all men are scum.
1. "All men are the same." On the contrary. Men are like shoes; no two fit alike and you have to try a bunch on until you find the perfect fit. Some are uncomfortable, some make you feel like a hooker, but one will fit so well you think you're walking on cloud nine.
Lamar Odom Finally Takes Off His Ring
Few days ago, Lamar was seen leaving an L.A. nightclub, and he made sure that the waiting cameramen got a good shot of the big silver wedding ring still on his finger.
But no longer. It appears that Lamar has decided to ditch his marital bling for good. Photographers snapped him wearing a black sweatshirt, black workout shorts, and holding a cell phone.however, the silver ring is nowhere in sight.
As for Khloe, she hasn’t been spotted with her ring at all since filing for divorce on December 13. Lamar was a bit slower to take it off — perhaps trying to send the message that this decision was Khloe’s, not his — but it now seems like he’s ready to ditch the bling and make a public statement that he’s ready to move on.Now that Khloe and Lamar have put the past behind them, it sounds like both will be moving on to a new chapter in 2014. Here’s to the new year! CHEERS!!! lol
Treating Of Stretch Marks
The following treatments are among those available to help improve the appearance of stretch marks. None has been proved to be more consistently successful than the others.
Tretinoin cream. Some research has shown that tretinoin cream (Retin-A, Renova, Avita) may improve the appearance of recent stretch marks — those that are less than a few months old and still pink or red in color. If you're pregnant or nursing, your doctor may opt to delay topical retinoid therapy or choose an alternative treatment. Tretinoin, when it works, helps to rebuild collagen, making the stretch mark look more like your normal skin. Tretinoin can irritate your skin. This treatment isn't effective on older stretch marks.

7 Ways To Be Your Own Biggest Fan(Self-Love)
'This is the season of holiday gifts wrapped under the tree but the gift I wish most for you is the greatest gift of all… self-love.
Self-love forms the basis of your single, most important relationship — that with yourself. The strength of all your other relationships is exactly equal to the strength of that groundwork. To love yourself is the prerequisite to healthy self-esteem and deeply connected relationships.
It is to be willing to receive as much as you are willing to give and do both equally. Self-love is about knowing your value, setting your boundaries, and honoring yourself. It is about teaching others how to treat you by demonstration of self-love. It is about being kind to yourself. It is about looking after your mind, your body and your spirit; all three are important. It is about knowing you are worth it, not because of what you have achieved or what you do for others, but because love is your birthright no matter what.
So the question is, are you practicing self-love on a daily basis to honor all that you are? If you're not, today is a great day to start. Read on and follow these 7 steps to fall head over heels in love with YOU. Because you are worth it!
1) Write yourself a love letter.
FOR REAL? You’ll Not Believe What Davido(@iam_davido) Has To Say About His Song ‘Skelewu’
See tweet above
Meanwhile two of Nigerian's talented music video directors who directed Davido's skelewu video, Mr Moe Musa and Sesan Ogunro lost their fathers some days ago.
Sesan's dad, Sesan Ogunro Snr was shot point blank by armed robbers as he returned from his church's Christmas Carol with his family – kids and grand kids. He was rushed to the hospital, only to die later on.
Moe Musa's dad died after a horrific car accident in Lagos.
Do you think its a coincidence or wrong timing for Davido to tweet such?
