Some of us will be questioning our lives as to the resolutions we took in January, if we’ve been able to keep to it. We all know that their are so many things we wish to stop doing, but often times we see ourselves doing them. Such things has become an addiction.
One of such thing is watching Pornography.
This act has taken over and destroyed a lot of young men and women who are addicted to it. It has become a big challenge, honestly to some of us. Pornography is very dangerous to our health and life because when you watch it, your mindset, psychology and intellect is greatly affected. Religuioslyy, some of these pornographic materials are highly demonic. That is why after watching them, you become possessed with what you watched. Your body will be on fire, seeking to be satisfied at all cost. That is a bad spirit, I tell you.
But I have good news for us. If you wish to quit watching pornography, Just read carefully these five important things to do :
First, you must realise that you are addicted to pornography.
The first step to deliverance from this terrible addiction, is to realise that you are into it, that it is bad, and that you need to stop it. Without this self realization, you cannot ever stop it
Second, after you’ve realised the dangers of watching pornography, and that you need to stop, you will forgive yourself and decide to stop at all cost.
Third, you must understand what causes the urge to watch pornography.
The discussions you have, the friends you keep, the places you go, e. T. c. When you notice that your friend loves pornography, please give such friend a distance. If you notice a movie or video has pornographic tendencies, please don’t watch. Also, avoid being lonely at all cost. The Bible says an idle mind is the devils workshop. Engage yourself in something productive.
Fourth, Pray about it and ask God for grace. Yes. By strength shall no man prevail. Pornography has a dirty spirit attached to it. You must therefore ask God to cleanse you and give you His spirit to guide and help you. Remember the Bible says in 2 Timothy 2:22, “Flee also youthful lusts:but follow righteousness,faith,charity,peace,with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart”.
Fifth, Install Anti-pornography applications on your mobile
This is because the internet is another world altogether. No matter how you try, you’ll always see a nude picture scattered everywhere online. The only way to avoid this is to install an Anti-pornographic application that will block such images and videos from entering your browsing space. You can go to google play and search for one of the apps that will work very well on your mobile device.
I used to be a pornographic addict. But when I realised that I was wasting my life and intellect, I decided to stop. It was never easy, but after I consistently applied these five principles, I was able to overcome.
My dear reader, pornography will never teach you anything good or put money in your account.
Instead, it will lead you into seeking for the desires and satisfaction of the flesh which will cause you sorrow, pain, regret, loss of esteem, diseases, unwanted pregnancy, waste of money on harlots, and even death.
I therefore encourage us to fight this demon. We are stronger than we think. Take a stand today, apply these principles and God will help us.

Maintaining a healthy and strong relationship can be challenging situation for everyone. There are different opinions of experts that say it is somehow difficult to build and maintain a strong, positive and healthy relationship. They also say that finding love and maintain a healthy relationship can be challenging for everyone. There should be a balance of love, patience and self-esteem to really achieve this thing. There are certain pillars that make the base of strong and positive relationship among the individuals. If all the pillars are strong and they are performing their duties in well established manner then there are rare chances of breaking up the relationship. But if the pillars are weak, then the relationship cannot be strong and positive among individuals. IF we focus strongly on these elements or pillars, then our relationship can last strong, healthy and positive for years to come.
As we mentioned above, the strong relationship among individuals is based on different pillars. All the pillars support each other. If one pillar falls then the other pillars become weaker. But one great thing about these pillars of positive and strong relationship is that they can be easily repaired but this thing requires a lot of time. If someone feels in his life that any pillar is starting to become weak or unstable in your relationship, fix it before it falls completely or try to find out the reasons of its weakness.
Among the positive and healthy pillars of good and long lasting relationship, the honesty, trust and love are of more important. The strong and positive relationship requires that individuals should promote these elements in order to make the relationship strong, healthy, long lasting and positive. Honest peoples are considered not unfaithful, because they do not try to deceive the other partner of their life. If these pillars are strong then it becomes difficult to break up the relationship. We have selected this topic in order to discuss some important elements or ingredients of strong and positive relationship
Essential Components of Strong and Positive Relationship
Following are some important components of strong and positive relationship.
1. Honesty
Honesty is considered as one of the most important element or ingredient of strong and positive relationship. Honesty is one of the most basic of all elements of ant relationship. There is a famous line or quote about honesty and it states “No matter what happens, you will always know the true to me.” The feeling of above quoted line can clarify different things. If we follow the true concept of honesty then it will become difficult for any misunderstanding to disturb the relationship.
2. Forgiveness
It is also considered as another important and essential element of strong and positive relationship. There are chances that dispute may arise between couples, colleagues, parents, customers or any other sort of relationships. But the true spirit of positive relationship requires that we must forgive the others by eliminating all facts of their mistakes from the heart. Different types of research studies suggest that without forgiveness in a relationship, old hurts resurface and neither person is truly able t o let go of the past.
3. Trust
Without trusting each other in any relationship, it becomes impossible to build a strong and positive relationship. It is said that trust is like honesty in that it deepens over time. Those people who are able to trust each other don’t have to deal with insecurities between each other.
4. Communication
This thing also plays an important role in making a relationship strong and positive. Disagreements are considered as an important part of any relationship but it is important to learn how to talk between each other during this situation. In order to make relationship healthy and strong, there will be need to learn to respect different ways of communication
5. Friendship
A friendly environment also promotes the strong and positive relationship. Different types of research studies suggest couples need to be friend with each other as this thing helps in promoting positive and strong relationship among individuals
6. Monogamy
This is considered as another important element of any relationship. Monogamy is one of the founding elements of all marriages. The value of trust and honesty becomes zero if there is no monogamy
7.Values of Same Nature
This thing also plays an important role in promoting strong and positive relationship. This thing requires that when you make major decisions in life, then you must fall close to the same line. This thing also helps in promoting the positive ideas among individuals.
8.Patience
This thing is also considered as an important element or ingredient of any strong and positive relationship. The patience promotes to handle the difficult situations with love and complete understanding of other partner’s point of view.
9.Passion
Like patience, passion also helps in promoting the strong and positive relationship.
10. Time Apart
Sometimes couples have to spend time away from each other. At the beginning, this thing seems difficult but with the passage of time, the couples should understand that this is an important phase of life that must be handled with proper patience.
The origin of humans is most certainly one of the most contentious points of evolutionary theory. Many people who believe in the God of the Bible accept that evolution created the animals but they still believe that humans (or at least their souls) were created by God. Such compromise positions have ultimately undermined the authority of God’s Word; Scripture is accepted for its moral value but not for its absolute truth in every area. It would seem that almost every culture on the planet has some story to explain how humans came to be. Many of these involve supernatural acts by gods. Naturalistic science, by its own definition, does not accept these supernatural events and regards them as myth. Religion and mythology are often viewed as some evolved coping mechanism to explain things that our brains have not been able to understand or directly experience. The scientific community must reject a supernatural origin based on its naturalistic/materialistic definition of science.
One of the reasons that human evolution is such a hot issue in Western culture stems from the direct conflict it has with biblical Christianity. In the creation account of Genesis 1 and 2, man is created in a position above the animals—in the very “image of God.” In evolutionary philosophy, man is a mere accident in the experiment run by time, chance, and natural laws. Man occupies no more important a position in the universe than does an asteroid floating through space. This notion runs contrary to the emotions of most people, but that may simply be arrogance due to our highly evolved brains.
Many may believe that there is a wide array of fossil evidence that clearly shows how apes have become humans. The iconic depiction of a hunched monkey gradually developing into an uprightwalking human has been viewed by most people. The problem is that much of the visuals are made up. The absence of a consistent story of evolution is obvious in the way that human ancestry is presented in the textbooks. Instead of showing a phylogenetic tree, two of the textbooks (Holt and Prentice Hall) simply show timelines representing the fossils. The Glencoe text shows a “possible” phylogenetic tree with many dashed lines (which are assumed to be questionable, even though they are not indicated as such), and one line appearing out of thin air. The cautious treatment of this topic shows the lack of consensus within the scientific community regarding the alleged ancestry of humans.
The proposed evolutionary ancestors to humans have changed many times over the decades as new fossil evidence has been gathered. While it is not expected that theories should remain constant, the picture seems to become less and less common with the addition of new information. Many nearly identical terms are used to describe alleged human and ape ancestors. Care must be taken to distinguish between hominoids, humanoids, hominins, hominans, and hominids. The most commonly discussed term is “hominid”:
Hominid: extinct and living members of the family Hominidae, including modern humans and their ancestors.
The term hominid has a somewhat contradictory definition within and between the textbooks reviewed. Different classification schemes place the orangutans, gorillas, and chimps (these three are commonly called the “great apes”) in the family Pongidae, while other schemes place these three in the family Hominidae with humans. Depending on which scheme is used for classification, the meaning of the word changes. Whether the term includes the great apes is somewhat irrelevant in that all groups still share a supposed common ancestor. In the broader scope, all four of these groups would be referred to as hominoids. The textbooks seem to indicate that only bipedal (walking upright on two legs) primates are classified as hominids, and the figures discussing hominids include “ancestors” that are assumed to be bipedal (Homo, Australopithecus, Ardipithecus, etc.). A review of current literature seems to indicate a trend toward including all four groups in the family Hominidae, which would mean the definition would need to be modified. The term has no value in the creationist model because there are no human ancestors—apes are apes, humans are humans. This does not mean that all creationists agree on the classification of all of the fossil primates. Classification is a subjective issue, especially when dealing in the historical realm of fossils and fragments of fossils. It is important to recognize the limits of accuracy when dealing with such a topic.
Many evolutionists try to dispel the popular idea that humans evolved from monkeys. While that statement is a simplification of human evolution, evolutionists claim that there is a common ancestor for monkeys, apes, and humans. If this common ancestor didn’t look something like a monkey, what did it look like? It would be more accurate to say that humans, monkeys, and apes have a common ancestor, but the distinction is relatively minor when considering that the ancestor of all apes and monkeys must have looked something like an ape or monkey.
The moral implications of the evolutionary philosophy that man is simply an advanced ape are increasingly manifested in our culture. If man is an ape, then the apelike or “primal” urges that we have for violence and sexuality can be excused as coming from our evolutionary history. Exercising those urges is contrary to the Christian doctrine of self-control. Many evolutionists try to separate biological evolution from evolutionary-based social philosophies on the grounds that those philosophies are not scientific. While this is true, evolutionists still try to deal with questions of behavior and their origins.
Bioethics is the area that deals with the moral and ethical implications of scientific knowledge and the technology it produces. If society espouses evolutionary/materialistic beliefs, those beliefs have consequences. There is no absolute basis for morality in a materialistic belief system; right and wrong are determined by the individual and society. As society changes, the laws that govern a society also change. Accepting the view that humans are simply highly evolved apes and that man determines truth is directly contrary to the absolute authority of the Creator God of the Bible.
Starting from the evolutionary bias that apes and humans are similar, some evolutionists have proposed that chimps should actually be reclassified in the genus Homo alongside humans. Taking this a step further, several groups are pushing for “human rights” for the apes. If they are truly that similar to us, why not grant them these rights? One reason is that the Bible makes a clear distinction between human life and the life of animals. We are to be stewards of the earth and have dominion over the animals, but we are created in the image of God, which makes us distinct from the apes
Piltdown man was thought to be a missing link for over 50 years before it was discovered to be a fraudulent combination of a human skull and an orangutan jaw. But because people wanted to believe evolution, they initially accepted the evidence without scientific scrutiny. The many different and dubious interpretations of Java man and Peking man (well documented in Bones of Contention by Martin Lubenow) are further evidence that people see what they believe in the fossils. Nebraska man was a hallmark in the Scopes Trial, but the tooth that inspired this image was later determined to be from an extinct pig.
There is no need to look for missing links if man is classified as a monkey, as a 1993 display at the Australian National Museum depicted: the common behaviors in humans and various apes were set forward as evidence for the claim. Australopithecus, the genus of the infamous “Lucy” specimen, is one of the most cited examples of a missing link in human evolution. The problem is that australopithecine features are all apelike, despite the claim that they walked upright. Many depictions actually show human hands and feet when the evidence clearly indicates curved, apelike features.
There is a newly discovered method of HIV prevention medicine which is an injected medication that is injected every two months and has been tested and prove to be effective. An interim analysis of the HIV Prevention Trials Network study has further served as evidence. This study compared “cabotegravir” which is a drug developed by ViiV Healthcare. ViiV Healthcare is a company which specializes in HIV and its majority is owned by GlaxoSmithKline, with Pfizer and Shionogi Limited as shareholders.
The study of this new type of prevention has primarily focused on HIV-negative men who have sex with men and transgender women who have sex with men in two parts of America which are namely North and South America. The study has further been extended to Asia and Africa. It has directly contrasted the current standard, which are used every day by HIV-negative people with the newly discovered cabotegravir treatment as it is injected every two months.From roughly 4,600 participants who took part, it was only 50 people in the trial acquired the HIV. This has indicated that cabotegravir was approximately 69% effective than daily pills at preventing HIV acquisition in this trial.
One of the trial investigators Dr Myron Cohen has said each year an estimated number of 1.7 million people are newly diagnosed with HIV. To lower that number, they believed more prevention options are needed in addition to the ones that were already available such as oral tablets for daily use. If the newly type of prevention gets approved it could play an important role in reducing HIV transmission and helping to end the HIV epidemic. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP) are daily medicines taken to prevent HIV, more especially by people who are at a greater than usual risk of infection. PrEP has been known as one of the keys to slowing and stopping HIV transmission.
Moreover, South African remains the country that is worst affected by the HIV pandemic
Bush baby is not a new name in Nigeria any more, if you grew up in rural area of the country you must have heard of stories concerning Bush babies which some of them are actually true while others are just mere stories to scare us.
There are quite some details most of us don’t know about this creature one of which is the name, Bush baby as it is often called is known as Nagapy or Galago.
A 13 year old boy from Benue state narrated how a Bush baby followed him from the bush which he went to farm. The young boy who was identified as Terhemba was reported to be a Tiv boy from Katsina-Ala Local Government in Benue State
Terhemba said he saw the small creature watching them from a tree in his father’s large Mango and Rice farm, he said he didn’t think of to hunt the it down since he have exusted his energy while working in his father’s farm.
Terhemba said when he got home with his mother he spotted the same animal outside and believed it must have followed them from the farm down to their house.
The most surprising thing is that Terhemba didn’t stress him self to hunt it down, according to the neighbours around they said he just picked it up while the creature didn’t make any attempt to escape.
This surprising to see a Nagapy at day time, this creature only comes out at night just like bat’s. What do you think must be the reason for it coming out in broad day light?
Have you seen or had an experience with a bush baby before? Do well to shear your experience on what you know about it
The utilization of make up as it ordinarily was is the basic spot of earthy colored/white powder a lipgloss or lipstick and eye pencils for temples and the rest. Hence, unique cosmetics attire has been concocted and the ordinary make up you may have known has been taken to an unheard of level.
This very one is the main plug for people with a very rough face
Yet we must bear in mind the pitfalls that this imaginative beautification presents, no matter how charming the marvelous wonders of make-up are.
Think about falling in love or becoming friends with somebody you’ve never seen before without making up, just consider how upset you ‘d be if you’d actually see the guy and look just like one of the pictures above? * * * *
Guys can you date and marry a woman that you’ve never seen her real face?
The Nigerian Navy made history this month when the competed hulling of its Seaward Defence Boat (SB3) became the largest industrial ship fabrication ever done at the Naval Dockyard Limited in Victoria Island, Lagos. Dorman Long Engineering won the contract to fabricate and hull external edifice , while the electrical sensor units and internal instruments were contracted out to Blueflag Inc.
This gunboat vessel is expected to be 43-meter long, with a 30 mm remotely operated gun, two 12.4mm multi-purpose heavy machine guns, a 40mm grenade launcher and an RHIB mounted on the naval vessel, which would be chaperoned by advanced navigation and communication system.
The Nigerian Naval Dockyard in Port Harcourt, and Lagos have been pushing indigenous fabrications of naval vessels that began with what is called NNS Andoni, then morphed to the NNS Karaduwa, as the second naval ship to be built in Nigeria.
The Nigerian Navy Ship (NNS) Andoni was named after a popular river belonging to the Ikwerre indigenous people in the South South region of the country. Its armament consist of a manned 30mm main gun, two 12.7mm, and two 40mm AGL.
Following in the slipstream of NNS Andoni, is the NNS Karaduwa, that was so named after a river in Katsina state. NNS Karaduwa is about 40m long ,with a capacity to go 72 km/h on a 30mm remotely operated gun, two 12.4mm multi-purpose heavy machine guns and a 40mm grenade launcher
While the first ship was deployed to the Gulf of Guinea to patrol the waters, the second ship was deployed in the Niger-Delta to ward off piracy there. The Third ship, Seaward Defence Boat (SDB3) , which is expected to be commissioned in November this year with 10 purchasing orders from Federal Government, will follow the same gun profile of the other previous two ships, but with more sophistication in design.
Also currently getting built in the Naval Dockyard Limited in Victoria Island, Lagos ,are two ocean-ongoing barges to serve as a liquid dispenser to naval ships near ports and harbour. Nations around the world develop their industrial bases by first developing their military capabilities through local production, and it seems Nigeria might just be on that route towards greatness in the near future.
Slovenia has become the first European nation to declare an end to its coronavirus epidemic and announced that all indicators point to a slowdown in the spread of COVID-19 throughout the country’s population.
Despite the announcement, many measures implemented to slow the virus from spreading will remain. Some of those restrictions will continue through the end of the month.
The nation also said it will open up certain land border crossings, allowing some European Union nationals to enter the from neighboring countries.
Slovenia registered its first coronavirus case on March 4. It imposed emergency measures just over a week later, on March 12
The National Institute for Public Health reported 35 cases of coronavirus had been recorded in the last 14 days. It also noted a reproductive rate below one.
The nation, with a population of around 2 million, suffered 1,465 coronavirus cases in total and 103 deaths linked to COVID-19 as of May 14, according to data from its National Institute for Public Health.
During its lockdown it closed schools, bars, restaurants and shops which were not those selling essential supplies.
Social distancing has been in place and the government said citizens following guidelines had been key in limiting the spread of the disease.
Nations across Europe have begun to tentatively lift stringent lockdown measures enacted in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic
The European Union has outlined guidance outlining measures to gradually lift travel restrictions between member states.
Guidance from the European Commission said: “As soon as the health situation allows, people should be able to catch up with friends and family, in their own EU country or across borders, with all the safety and precautionary measures needed in place.”
It has released an overall strategy for support nations within the bloc, with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen having stressed her commitment to EU members working together.
At a plenary session in March, she said: “We must look out for each other, we must pull each other through this. Because if there is one thing that is more contagious than this virus, it is love and compassion. And in the face of adversity, the people of Europe are showing how strong that can be.”
Amid restrictions lifting, there have been concerns of doing so leading to further spikes and fears of a potential second wave of the outbreak.
Worldwide there have been more than 4.4 million confirmed coronavirus cases. The United States has the highest number, followed by Russia second and the United Kingdom third.
More than 300,000 lives have been claimed nationwide by the epidemic, according to Johns Hopkins University data. More than 1.5 million people diagnosed with the virus have recovered.
The below graphic, from Statista, details the worst-hit countries across the globe.
Sometime in the next few hours, the body of a spent Chinese rocket will become the largest piece of space junk in decades to fall, uncontrolled, back towards Earth.
On May 5, a Long March 5B rocket launched a prototype crew capsule resembling a SpaceX Crew Dragon to orbit for a test. Now, after almost a week orbiting the Earth, the core stage of the large rocket is on a collision course with the upper atmosphere and whatever doesn’t burn up during its descent will impact the planet.
“It is the most massive object to make an uncontrolled reentry since the 39-tonne Salyut-7 in 1991,” wrote Jonathan McDowell, a prominent Harvard astrophysicist who tracks objects in orbit, on Twitter.
The US military, the private Aerospace Corporation and others are tracking the object, with the latest projections showing that the 37,000 pound rocket could enter the atmosphere and begin burning up at any moment. As of this writing, it is currently flying in the direction of the western United States and is set to fly right over Hollywood and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, according to McDowell.
Rocket re-entries are notoriously difficult to predict, as the object is moving at thousands of miles per hour. When it breaks up, debris that makes it to the ground can be spread over hundreds or thousands of miles.
The good news is that there’s almost no reports through history of space junk injuring or killing people, as it typically falls in the ocean or remote areas, which make up much of Earth’s surface.
However, it’s definitely a good idea to keep an eye on the sky today.
