Monday Motivation: That Cup of Coffee During Corporate Meetings Is Necessary!

For those of you who dread board meetings for reasons best known to
you, a cup of coffee might be all you need to help you make it through
and even participate actively.

Caffeine, which is present in coffee, has been found to boost
attention and long term memory.

Here are 5 Benefits of taking at least a cup of coffee at work everyday:

1) Low doses of caffeine enhance working memory performance.


2) Combined administration of glucose and caffeine contributes to an
increase in the efficiency of the attentional system. A review
published in 2012 suggests that caffeine improves performance on both
simple and complex attention tasks, concluding that caffeine has clear
beneficial effects on attention, and that these effects are even more
widespread than previously assumed.

3) It is well-known that low to moderate doses of caffeine (around two
to five cups of coffee per day) improve hedonic (pleasure-related)tone
and reduce anxiety. Whereas high doses can increase tense arousal,
including anxiety, nervousness, and jitteriness.

4) Caffeine increases both selective attention (focussing on the
relevant stimulus) and sustained attention (maintaining focused
attention over an extended period of time). A 75mg serving of
caffeine, the amount found in around one regular cup of coffee, has
been demonstrated to increase attention.  Higher caffeine intakes,
such as those found in more than one or two cups of coffee, do not
necessarily result in additional increases in alertness.

5) The effects of caffeine on alertness are most often clearest in
situations where an individual's alertness level is reduced, such as
when they are suffering from the common cold, the post-lunch dip or
working at night.

During night work, caffeine has also been shown to reduce cognitive
failures and accidents by about half in subjects consuming over 220mg
caffeine daily, i.e. the amount found in approximately two cups of
coffee.

Moreover, caffeine reduces cognitive failures in the non-working population.


Go ahead and give it a try and let us know your observations.

Ebola In Rivers Update: ECOWAS Official May Face Manslaughter Charges.

The Nigerian diplomat attached to the Economic Community of West
African States (ECOWAS), Olubukun Koye who escaped from quarantine in
Lagos after testing positive to Ebola virus and travelled to Port
Harcourt for treatment, an action that resulted in the death of the
doctor who treated him (Iyke Enemuo) may face manslaughter charges.

This is coming on the heels of report that the number of persons under
surveillance in the state for Ebola Virus Disease has increased from
100 to 160.

Sources told THISDAY that the issue of Koye (a primary contact of the
index case, late Liberian Partick Sawyer) who defied instruction not
to leave Lagos after being placed in the isolation unit, was discussed
at the Federal Executive Committee meeting on Wednesday and that the
Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation Mohammed
Adoki was directed to look into the Nigerian laws and see how he could
be sanctioned for his action that resulted in the death of Enemuo.

The Rivers State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Samson Parker while
giving an update on the EVD in the state, after recording its first
death from Ebola last week Friday, disclosed that the surveillance
list had increased to 160.

He said the state's contact tracing team was working seriously to make
sure that the spread of the EVD was contained in the state.
Parker also gave further insight into how the dreaded EVD crept into
the state and claimed its first victim.

He said the late Enemuo was aware that Koye, whom he treated, had
evaded the surveillance team in Lagos to travel to Port Harcourt.

Parker said: "He (Koye) had received the late Dr. Patrick Sawyer in
Lagos. Upon developing the symptom, he confided in a female colleague,
called Lillian, who contacted the late Dr. Enemuo. It was after
contact was established with Dr. Enemuo that  Koye flew to Port
Harcourt to see Dr. Enemuo.

"To conceal his movement, Koye sneaked out of the isolation unit where
he was being observed and took a flight to Port Harcourt and switched
of his phone so that he cannot be reached or traced should he answer a
call.

"On arrival in Port Harcourt, Koye checked into a local hotel called
Mandate Hotel, around Rumuokoro in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of
the city."

The hotel, Parker said, was close to Enemuo's private clinic, Sam Steel Clinic.

Parker continued: "From what we have gathered so far, Dr. Enemuo,
knowing full well that Koye was positive of the Ebola virus took some
measure of precaution to protect himself while treating Koye. Knowing
the enormity of what he was doing. Dr. Enemuo upon Koye's departure
for Lagos poured bleach all over the room that Koye slept in order to
sanitise the place.

"Upon developing the Ebola symptom, Dr. Enemuo approached one of our
colleagues for treatment at Green Heart Hospital, along Evo Road, in
G.R.A. Dr. Enemuo did not tell the doctor that was treating him the
truth. He merely told him that he had fever. He lied. He did not tell
the doctor that was treating him his full story.

"But the doctor, a nice and conscientious professional suspected that
Dr. Enemuo was either hiding something or was suffering from a strange
ailment because he proved negative to malaria, fever and typhoid
fever. To be sure of what he was doing, he spoke to other very
experienced doctors about the strange case he was handling in his
hospital.

"He even invited some of  his colleagues to come over to his hospital
to study Dr. Enemuo's medical history. Of course, the news of the
Ebola virus was everywhere, so, they were afraid to go. None of them
showed up at the hospital where Dr. Enemuo was being treated. His
condition continued to deteriorate and he eventually died and his body
was taken to the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital."
Parker said Koye had returned to Lagos where the surveillance group
saw him and tested him of the EVD and that he had tested negative.

He said Koye neither disclosed to the people that he travelled to Port
Harcourt nor that he had treated himself of the disease.

According to the commissioner, "When news got to Koye that the doctor
that treated him in Port Harcourt had died, he collapsed. It was then
he opened up and confessed that Dr. Enemuo had treated him when he
travelled to Port Harcourt. He confessed that he sneaked out of Lagos
to Port Harcourt".
However, the authorities of the isolation centre in Lagos never
disclosed to the public that an ebola positive patient had escaped
from the centre when the incident occured. This information is only
just coming to light following the death of a doctor in Port Harcourt.

What a mess! How unnecessary.

Weekend Treat: Boost Your Immune System With Moringa

I have a moringa tree( the miracle tree) in my backyard which I
planted all by myself with so much care and affection!

The moringa plant is found in the middle east, Asia and Africa.

I got the seeds and planted about five in a flower pot. After about
five days only two seeds sprouted.

When my plants were about half a foot tall, one of my children
uprooted both of them, for reasons best known to them. Only one
eventually made it and I transferred it to my backyard with the soil
but without the pot.

I didn't know about breaking the tip so the tree could have branches
so in a few months I had "something reaching for the skies". How on
earth was I going to get the leaves?

So we had to practically cut about half of the tree off and that was
how I got my leaves!

Few days later, I understood why it has been said that this tree likes
to be cut; the stem had started budding! In a matter of weeks there
were branches with leaves. The more you break off the branches, the
more they sprout!

Do I hear you yawn? You want to know what's so special about moringa?

Let me give you health benefits and a good reason to plant a moringa
tree in your backyard.

Moringa contains proteins, vitamins and minerals and is also a
powerful antioxidant. It also has antitumor, antipyretic,
antiepileptic, antiinflammatory, antiulcer, antispasmodic, diuretic,
antihypertensive, cholesterol lowering, antidiabetic,
hepatoprotective, antibacterial and antifungal properties.

In other words, it's really potent in the treatment or management of
the following:

Anaemia

Arthritis and Joint pain

Asthma

Cancer

Constipation

Diabetes

Stomach pain and ulcers

Head aches

Hypertension

Kidney stones

Thyroid disorders

Bacterial, fungal, viral and parasitic infections

It helps reduce swelling, increase sex drive, and improve breast milk
production.

It is a well-known the immune system booster.

It can be applied directly to wounds, scalp, or even the gums. It can
be rubbed directly on the temples to relieve headaches.

I eat the leaves fresh, though they can also be dried (they still
retain the vitamins and minerals).

You can take time out to read on other Parts of the Moringa tree that
are medicinal and get a free e-book on the plant here

Rivers State Commissioner of Health Confirms Ebola Case In Port Harcourt

Rivers state government has confirmed the death of a medical doctor
from Ebola virus.

Commissioner of Health, Dr Sampson Parker who broke the news Thursday
in Port Harcourt said the late Dr Iyke Sam Enemuo died Friday last
week from suspected Ebola virus, adding that a test on his corpse
released yesterday confirmed that the deceased died from the virus.

He said the late Enemuo met a staff of Economic Community of West
African states, Ecowas at a hotel in Port Harcourt, noting that the
ECOWAS staff was on the team of those that received the index case,
late Patrick. According to the Commissioner of Health, one week after
the ECOWAS staff left Port Harcourt the late Dr Enemuo took ill and
was admitted in a hospital.

The Commissioner, Dr Parker said the wife of late Dr Enemuo who is
also a doctor had fallen sick and had been quarantined, adding that
about 100 persons who had primary or secondary contact with the late
Dr Enemuo had been placed on watchlist.

While appealing to residents of the state not to panic the
Commissioner, Dr Parkar said adequate measures were in place to check
the spread of the disease.

His words,: "My friends, brothers and sisters. The Governor of Rivers
State, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has directed me to make this
solemn announcement to you.

"And it is with a heavy heart that I announce to you that the ebola
virus has claimed its first victim in Rivers State. Dr. Iyke Sam
Enemuo died last week Friday, August 22, 2014 as a result of what was
suspected to be ebola virus disease.

"The Rivers State Ministry of Health on becoming aware of the
conditions of his death, immediately commenced investigations and
contact tracing.

"As at today, about one hundred contacts from a hotel, patients of Dr.
Enemuo and patients of the hospital where the late Enemuo was treated
until his demise have been identified and restricted in Rivers State.

"The locations are being decontaminated. I had promised to be open and
candid with the public on our efforts to tackle the ebola virus.

"From our investigations some facts have emerged. A staff of the
Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) on the team that
received late Dr. Patrick Sawyer, the Liberian American diplomat who
died of ebola haemorrhagic disease in Lagos, Nigeria made a trip to
Port Harcourt where he checked into a hotel and met with Dr. Iyke Sam
Enemuo.

"About a week after his departure, Dr. Iyke Enemuo took ill and was
rushed to a hospital where he presented with symptoms of fever,
diarrhea and vomiting.

"In the course of treatment, the managing physician became suspicious
and took samples for investigation. A few days after, Dr. Iyke Enemuo
died on August 22, 2014. His body was deposited at a mortuary in Port
Harcourt.

"Dr. Iyke Enemuo's widow, who is also a medical doctor and who cared
for him during his illness has taken ill. She is being quarantined.

"A few hours ago, results of the test carried out on samples taken
from Dr. Enemuo came back and was positive of Ebola Viral disease. The
diplomat who was seen by late Dr. Iyke Enemuo is alive and well."

Yummy! "Super-foods That Boost Brain Health"

Oh brain work! Whenever I'm involved in serious brain activities I
notice that some meals I've had don't just work! Before you know it
you're already feeling light-headed and dizzy and that's not good for
productivity! So what can we eat to boost brain activity and
productivity especially at work?

Here are Top 9 "Superstar" Foods for Brain Health By Dr. Ann Kulze

"Salmon: Salmon is exploding with the omega 3 fats that make up the
majority of the solid structure of the brain and play a fundamental
role in learning and cognition.  In the brain, omega 3 fats,
specifically DHA, are both the structural and functional "lynchpins"
for learning.

Nuts:  Nuts score a perfect 10 when it comes to brain-boosting
performance.  They are rich in several nutrients that play a key role
in healthy brain function, including essential amino acids, vitamin E,
a full spectrum of minerals, and B vitamins.


Beans: Beans are the most underappreciated brain foods.  Cheap,
convenient, versatile and well-liked by most, beans are a brain-health
winner.  They provide a steady supply of the brain's preferred source
of fuel, glucose, along with loads of vitamins, minerals, amino acids
and polyphenol antioxidants that the brain loves.


Oatmeal: Oatmeal is a highly nutritious source of brain fuel (glucose)
delivered gently, but steadily.  (The brain cannot stand high or low
levels of blood glucose). Oatmeal is also a good source of B vitamins,
vitamin E and key minerals.


Avocados: Avocados are another totally underappreciated brain health
standout.  A review of their nutritional profile reads straight from
the winning play book of eating for optimal brain health.  They are
chock full of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats that promote healthy
blood flow in the brain along with boatloads of the brains most valued
nutrients including: folate, potassium, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin
E, and copper.


Blueberries: This diminutive yet all powerful fruit should be called
the brain berry.  Blueberries give the brain a nice gradual dose of
its must-have fuel (glucose) along with a massive hit of powerful
antioxidants.  The brain is uniquely susceptible to the ravages of
oxidation and blueberries hold the number one spot in food with the
most antioxidant power.  In laboratory studies, blueberries were found
to enhance the learning capacity and motor skills in aging rats.  Best
of all – they are delicious!.  Any other berry is great too.


A prudent portion of dark chocolate. This yummy food houses some of
the most potent antioxidants ever discovered in nature along with
several natural stimulants that can enhance focus and concentration.
The modest sugar it provides can help fuel the brain too.  I always
give my kids 2-3 small pieces of dark chocolate to take during exams.


Any form of dark leafy green (including spinach, kale, collards, Swiss
chard and lettuce greens). The nutritional fire power in dark leafy
greens is unrivaled.  They provide the full spectrum of
brain-protective nutrients, including a huge dose of vitamin C and
vitamin A along with 18 essential nutrients.  They are teeming with
antioxidant phytochemicals and a bit of omega 3 fats as an added
brain-health bonus.


Wheat germ: Slightly sweet, yet nutty, wheat germ is a gem of a food
for brain health.  It is an excellent source of omega 3 fat, vitamin E
and zinc – 3 nutrients required for brain function.  Sadly, many
people are deficient in these vital brain agents."

Wow! Now you know what to keep close to you in the office, especially
during your lunch break (many worker's brains go to sleep after lunch
break).

Update: Nigeria Now Has Only One Ebola Case

Nigeria has successfully reduced the number of Ebola cases in the
country to one.

Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu  who gave  an update on the
disease in Abuja told journalists that "today is the 30th day since
the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) was imported into Nigeria by a Liberian
- American.  As of today   Nigeria has had thirteen cases of EVD
including the index case."


"However,  seven of the infected persons were successfully managed at
the isolation ward in Lagos and have been discharged home."


"Two of the treated patients,  a male doctor and a female nurse were
discharged   Monday evening, having satisfied the criteria for
discharge."


"As I speak with you, Nigeria has only one confirmed case of EVD,  a
secondary contact of Mr Patrick Sawyer's and spouse of one of the
physicians who participated in the management of the index case.
She is stable but still on treatment at the isolation ward in Lagos,"
the minister said.

WHO Recommends That E-cigarettes Be Banned

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has recommended that e-cigarettes
be banned indoors, which they say emit toxic chemicals that could be
harmful to bystanders.

'Many smokers use e-cigarettes as a way to quit, as they deliver the
nicotine hit but without the carcinogens associated with breathing in
smoke. There are no laws currently banning their use inside.

But yesterday a report by the WHO questioned the safety of
e-cigarettes, officially known as electronic nicotine delivery systems
(ENDS).

"The fact that ENDS exhaled aerosol contains on average lower levels
of toxicants than the emissions from combusted tobacco does not mean
that these levels are acceptable to involuntarily exposed bystanders,"
said the report.

Although anecdotal reports indicate that an undetermined proportion of
ENDS users have quit smoking using these products, their efficacy has
not been systematically evaluated yet," the report added.'

Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), of which electronic
cigarettes are the most common prototype, are devices that do not burn
or use tobacco leaves but instead vaporise a solution the user then
inhales. The main constituents of the solution, in addition to
nicotine when nicotine is present, are propylene glycol, with or
without glycerol and flavouring agents. ENDS solutions and emissions
contain other chemicals, some of them considered to be toxicants.

Although some e-cigarettes look like tobacco products (e.g.
cigarettes, cigars, cigarillos, pipes, hookahs, or shishas), they may
be produced in the form of everyday items such as pens, USB memory
sticks or larger cylindrical or rectangular devices.

Previous studies have shown that inhaling nicotine, even without
tobacco smoke, may contribute to heart disease.

I recommend staying off nicotine totally and completely. "Hard" or
"Soft" copy makes no difference!

Should My 8yr Old Be Using Deodorants?

The other day I was like "what's that?" when I picked up my 8yr old
daughter's school uniform and "inhaled some sort of mature odour".

Days later when my husband asked me if I had noticed the strong body
odour from my daughter I knew something had to be done about this
situation.

Getting to puberty already? But it's kind of early... I didn't have
any experience like this when growing up till I was 11/12.

Daily baths, regular change of clothes, beddings and diet help to
check body odour. Onion, garlic and spicy foods can contribute to body
odour.
You may also consider using an anti-bacterial deodorant soap for your child.
But when these are taken care of and there's still no improvement
then it's possible your eight year old is approaching puberty (8-13yrs
for girls, 9-14yrs for boys).

So early?

There is a theory that states that exposure to chemicals in the
environment and processed foods causes children to experience puberty
quicker.
Other studies have linked early puberty to exposure to artificial
light from TV and computer screens.

So how do you deal with the body odour since you now understand your
child is getting more mature?

Give your child deodorants rather than anti-perspirants.
Deodorant products without anti-perspirants are usually termed
"natural"; they stop the odour and not the sweating.

Experts advice that products with phthalates should be avoided for children.

"Phthalates (pronounced "thah-lates") are chemical plasticizers that
have been widely used to soften plastics that would otherwise be
brittle and crack when bent.

Phthalates are found in an amazing array of products. In personal care
items, they're used to help lubricate other substances, help lotions
penetrate and soften the skin, and help fragrances last longer.
They're also used in toys, electronics (such as personal computers),
car-care products, insecticides, and many household products,
including adhesives, plastic wrap, plastic containers, flooring,
furniture, wallpaper, shower curtains, and other things made of vinyl
or PVC

Here's a list of the most common phthalates, which may come in handy
for checking labels:

DBP (dibutyl phthalate)

DNOP (di-n-octyl phthalate)

DiNP (diisononyl phthalate)

DEP (diethyl phthalate)

BBzP (benzyl butyl phthalate)

DEHP (di 2-ethylhexl phthalate)

DiDP (diisodecyl phthalate)

DnHP (di-n-hexyl phthalate)

DMP (dimethyl phthalate)

DnOP (di-n-octylphthalate)

Bisphenol A (BPA) is another plasticizer."

There are now special deodorant products available for even 6yr olds.

You can also get good advice from your pharmacist concerning the best
decision to make.

Dating After Divorce? 3 Pitfalls To Avoid

This might be written with the woman in mind but I believe its still
applicable to both sexes.

"Whether you've already started dating after divorce, or you're about
to take the plunge, chances are good you're going to be tempted to
give in to three behaviors that will sabotage either your ability to
move on from your marriage, or seriously reduce the chance you'll find
a wonderful new man. Here are three post-divorce dating dangers and
how you can avoid them:

1. Thinking all guys are like your ex. Trusting a new man once you've
been hurt by your ex-husband is difficult. Yet, if you don't get rid
of this distrust toward men it will destroy your chance of finding
someone new. This distrust often shows up in online dating profiles
when you say things like "no head games," or "no dishonest men." When
you write those things in your profile, you're broadcasting on a
billboard that you've been hurt and that you're distrustful.

You'll scare away the men who have it together because they'll
recognize your distrust immediately. And most of the men who really do
play head games or are dishonest haven't admitted to themselves that
they possess these massive flaws ... this makes it likely that they
aren't going to stay away from you just because you ask them to in
your profile. And when you do get into a relationship after divorce,
even if the guy is faithful to you and is madly in love with you, you
may not believe anything he says.


This can happen because in the back of your mind, you'll have this
ongoing chorus playing: "All men are just like my ex-husband. All men
cheat. All men fall out of love and break up with you." It plays like
a country song accompanied by an out-of-tune guitar. Replace that
chorus with something more melodious, something like: "I'm having a
lot of fun getting to know my new man (or my date) and finding out
what good qualities he has." With each man you meet, you want to start
with a clean slate. 8 Great Dating Tips For Recently Divorced Women

Look at him as an individual. Notice all the ways your new man or date
is different from your ex-husband. If you're still having difficulties
trusting men after divorce simply by using your logic, I have found
one of the most effective ways to release your distrust is to use
what's called Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), which involves
tapping on acupressure points. A good place to learn this technique is
at The Rebuilding Your Life After Divorce Mountain Retreat.

2. Getting involved in a rebound relationship. If you're lonely after
your divorce, it's easy to get involved with someone new before you're
truly ready to move on. But how do you know whether that new
relationship is the real thing or whether you're simply on the
rebound? First, ask yourself if the person you're with has the
qualities you'd want in a long-term partner. Do you have lots in
common with this person? Or is the physical attraction blinding you to
how wrong you really are for each other?
Another question to ask: Am I happy alone even without a man in my
life? If the answer is yes, then you're ready to get involved in a new
relationship. But if the only reason you're getting involved in a new
relationship is because you can't stand to be alone, then your new
relationship may indeed be a rebound relationship. As you heal from
your divorce and think about the lessons you learned from it, your new
relationship can be transformed from a rebound relationship to a real
relationship, as long as it's based on more than just physical
attraction. Single & Ready To Mingle? 5 Places To Meet Local Men

3. Unintentionally holding onto baggage. None of us are blank sheets
of paper. We have all been hurt in the past. The key is to find ways
to release the baggage so it doesn't get stuck inside of you. In fact,
much of the time, you're probably not even aware of your baggage.

It's time to start having an internal dialogue with yourself. Did you
spend enough time alone after your divorce to really think about what
caused the collapse of your marriage? While your ex-husband likely
played a part, did you have any destructive habits? Blame is one of
the most common destructive habits I've seen in couples. Divorced &
Dating? Why You Haven't Met Mr. Right

We want to blame our significant others for the way we feel. But our
emotions have our nametags on them. We own them. Rather than telling
our partners "You're making me angry," it's much better to say, "When
you did X, Y, or Z, I didn't feel so good. I felt really
uncomfortable."

Whether it's avoiding blame or any other relationship-sabotaging
factors, is there anything you could do differently in a new
relationship to stop it from going the way of your marriage? It's only
when you answer this question that you can say goodbye to your baggage
and hello to a wonderful new relationship."

Patrick Sawyer, Ebola and the ‘Illuminati’ Connection

By Femi Fani-Kayode

I disagree with those that have described Patrick Sawyer, the
Liberian/American that single-handedly brought the deadly ebola virus
into our shores, as a madman. He was not mad at all but just evil. He
was a man that was on a mission. That mission was to spread the ebola
virus to Nigeria and to infect and kill as many people as possible
with it.

He was an evil man with an evil intention and purpose. Worst still, he
was not working alone. Some people, and I mean rich, powerful and
well-connected people, were working with him. As a matter of fact,
they sent him on the mission.
They cultivated him, took care of him, paid him, brainwashed him, gave
him all that he wanted in life and finally asked him to go on a
suicide mission to destroy the lives of others and spread the deadly
disease.

This was a clear case of bio-terrorism and Sawyer was simply a pawn in
a bigger game and a wider picture. The motive of those who sent him
was to spread fear and panic, to kill as many people as possible, to
create a need for a solution to the problem, to prepare the ground for
a new wonder drug that could cure Ebola, to create a massive market
for that drug and to ensure that there would be massive profits from
it's sale.
As usual, it is the unbelieving, unprepared, undiscerning and naive
Africans that have been used as the prime guinea pigs in this satanic
venture. When will they stop destroying us and treating us with such
contempt? When will they begin to see and treat us as human beings?
I guess the answer to that is when we cultivate the courage to stand
up and say ''no more'' and when we have the good fortune of being
blessed with a ruling elite and a political class that truly cares and
that is incisive, insightful, properly educated, enlightened and
historically literate.

Just a few days ago, a Russian website magazine known as Pravda.ru
considered what they described as the very real possibility that the
American government actually created the Ebola virus as a lethal and
effective biological weapon solely for the purpose of biological
warfare. They wrote the following:

''The epidemic of the deadly Ebola virus that was born in the depths
of the jungle, has been spreading around the world with an
unprecedented speed lately. The number of victims, according to
official figures, has already exceeded a thousand people. The number
of infected individuals nears almost two thousand. The WHO declared
the disease a threat of global significance. Are there ways to combat
the fever? It turns out that there is a vaccine against Ebola.
Pentagon scientists were developing it for 30 years, and all the
rights for the drug belong to the government of the United States.

Two infected US medics received injections of the vaccine and they
started recovering from the disease immediately. Why was this made
public only now? Why is it that the USA holds all the rights for the
use of the vaccine? There can be two most obvious answers found to
these questions. As one can see, Ebola is a perfect biological weapon:
it spreads quickly and gives nearly 100 percent mortality. Those
having the life-saving vaccine can dictate any conditions to others.
The second answer is a purely commercial interest. It is enough to
arrange panic with the help of the media, as it was the case with
several epidemics before, such as avian flu. Afterwards, it will be
possible to sell the life-saving medicine "at any price''.

This is an interesting contribution from the Russians and it is indeed
food for thought. Yet, even though many may harbour deep suspicions
about the role of the United States of America in this ugly episode
and even though many may finger her, and indeed the entire western
world, as being the sole culprits and co-conspirators behind the
creation and unleashing of the Ebola virus on Africa, in my view, this
may not necessarily be the case.

I say this because even though the majority of the leading players in
this small and exclusive club from hell that is known as the
Illuminati and that are involved in this strange narrative are
undoubtedly from America and western Europe. It is by no means an
exclusive club of solely Americans and western Europeans. As a matter
of fact, some leading and well-known third world and African leaders
and business people are also deeply involved even though they may not
rank too high up on the ladder or in the pecking order.

Before anyone gets swept away with the idea that this is all about the
evils of America, we must make it clear that the American people
themselves, as opposed to their leaders, are as much of a victim of
this secret cabal of wickedness as is anyone else. They are also
wallowing in the throes of abysmal ignorance about what is really
going on behind the scenes almost as much as the average African.

In order to get a clearer picture, it is important to take note of the
following observations. The forces that are behind this evil are well
beyond America and they are inflicting as much evil on America, and
indeed the entire western world, as they are on the rest of humanity.
Africa and the African people are not their only victims and they are
not their only prey. They prey on all of humanity and they feed on the
flesh and drink the blood of us all regardless of where we come from.
The roots of these forces are ancient and they are very real.

They pre-date America and they were established by a tiny group of
deep-thinkers, spiritualists, intellectuals, seasoned occultists and
Lucifereans led by Adam Weishaupt in a place called Bavaria in Germany
on the European continent in 1776. They are known as the
''Illuminati'' (meaning ''The Enlightened Ones") and their activities
are buried in absolute secrecy.

Their symbol and operational structure is the pyramid and they are
fortified, strengthened and protected by numerous ancient cults and
fraternities, secret societies, false religions, pagan rituals, the
control of the worlds banking system and money supply and the total
domination and control of world politics and the entire world system
itself. They are empowered directly, through a very complex and strict
hierarchical system and command and control structure, by satan
himself through his human agents and demons.

Their ultimate goal and objective is to establish what has been
rightly described by many commentators over the years as a ''New World
Order'' which will be run by a ''One World Government'' that will be
headed by the evil soul that the Holy Bible describes as ''the
beast'', the ''son of perdition'' and the ''Anti-Christ''. The Koran
describes the same individual as the ''Masih Ad-Dajal''. Everything
that is going on in the world today, including the carnage and
bestiality of the numerous conflicts and wars that we are witnessing
are silently being orchestrated by them.

They were behind the first and second world wars and now they are busy
stoking fires all over the world, covertly funding and supporting the
most vicious and horrendous types of terror groups and quietly
preparing the ground for the Third and final World War.
They are relentless, disciplined, purposeful, unyielding, ruthless,
demonic, sociopathic, inhuman, committed, focused and very
clear-thinking. Their ultimate goal is to enslave humanity, to
enthrone the rulership of satan and his agents here on earth, to deny
God His rightful place in the hearts and minds of His children, to
destroy all His people and all men and women of faith that refuse to
bow to their perverse values and to compel humanity to accept their
''humanist'' and ungodly philosophies and ways. These are the facts
and anyone that does not believe that such an agenda or such a group
exists needs to do a lot more reading, praying and research.

The fact is that their greatest source of strength and pleasure is the
erroneous enunciation of the absurd notion that they do not exist.
They want us all to believe that there is no such evil force and
organisation and that there is no such hidden agenda. Yet sadly they
do exist and they not only control much of the world's economy, media
and commerce but they also, through the process of subtle manipulation
and sheer guile, install governments, prime ministers and presidents
in the most powerful nations in the world and they tell them what to
do from behind the scenes.

The inner circle of the Illuminati comprises of thirteen very powerful
families that are all related to one another through complex and
ancient bloodlines even though they come from different parts of the
world.  Between them these thirteen families, together with their
underlings, fronts and associates, control virtually all the political
power and money in the world.

Whether anyone chooses to believe it or not, the truth is that they
are not entirely human and they are utterly cold-blooded. One of those
families is the Rothschild family (which literally means the ''Red
Shield'').

I leave readers to do their own research on these families and to find
out their links to the Illuminati. I suggest that they start by
reading the numerous works of Mr. David Icke, an utterly brilliant man
that has been described by his detractors as ''the world's leading
conspiracy theorist''.

Weekend Treat: Walnut is a Certified Mouth Freshener!

Halitosis or bad breath is a serious issue, particularly when it comes
to socializing.

There's this colleague of yours that is always armed with information
beneficial to only himself because no one seems to be able to "bear"
it.

It is this consistent "isolation" that leads many to this terrible
discovery of having bad breath because most people are completely
unaware of their situation.

Common causes of halitosis are odour bacteria on the gums, between the
teeth and on the tongue resulting from bad teeth and gum conditions.

Food with strong odour like
Onion and garlic, chewing tobacco and smoking are other causes of bad breath.

Other causes of halitosis are any conditions of the nose, throat,
respiratory tract, liver or kidney.

The teeth should be cleaned regularly after eating especially before
going to bed at night and food particles should be removed carefully
with toothpicks or dental floss. In case of decaying teeth and swollen
and bleeding gums, a dentist should be consulted.

Many have tried all forms of therapies and mouthwashes with no real or
lasting relief.

But have you tried walnut?

Two Nigerian teenagers, Eveshorhema Samuel-Alli and Ibukunoluwa
Oladeinde have proven from their research that walnut is the number
one mouth freshener!

'According to Eveshorhema, the idea for this project came while on a
school trip to a rural area in Nigeria where the host community served
them walnuts.
"When I woke up in the morning, I hadn't brushed my teeth yet but my
breath was already fresh. Then I remembered I had eaten walnuts the
previous night." To confirm her suspicion, she ate more nuts the
following night and awoke with fresh breath again and that made them
to carry out further research.

We conducted this experiment using 35 volunteers who were students of
our school. we sent out parents consent forms and when we received the
parents' consent, we continued the experiment.

The volunteers were  divided into four groups. The duo then made two
different walnut products.
Walnut chewing gum: "We made walnut chewing gum by adding resins and
sucrose to chopped walnuts.
Walnut mouthwash: "Also, we made a walnut mouthwash mixing chopped
walnut, water and 10 per cent lime as preservative.

One group was given whole walnuts to eat; the second group was given
walnut chewing gum; the third was given walnut mouthwash while the
last group was given nothing so they were the control group.

"They took the walnut morning and night. We then observed them and
recorded the results. They did not brush their teeth for the duration
of the experiment. They were going only on walnut so we would be able
to see the improvement," said Eveshorhema Samuel-Alli.

"After this, we conducted an experiment using Lead tri-oxo nitrate (v)
in which the volunteers were made to blow bubbles into a solution of
lead nitrate and water before and after the experiment.

"Before they took the walnut and walnut products, they were made to
blow bubbles into the solution and then we recorded how long it took
to turn the solution black. What turns the solution black is hydrogen
sulphide and that is what causes mouth odour. So if it takes a short
time, that means the mouth odour is actually very bad. Then after the
experiment, they were also made to blow bubbles into the solution and
this time, it was noticed that there was significant time lapse before
the solution  turned black.

When the control group who had bacteria in their mouths, blew bubbles
into the solution, it turned black while it remained clear when the
other groups blew bubbles into it. So we knew that the walnut was
actually working to cure halitosis."

This project actually won us a Life Science Award of $1,000 in the
Medicine and Health Science category, courtesy, Sigma Xi Scientific
Research Society."

Eveshorhema and Ibukunoluwa are representing Nigeria at the 2014 Intel
International Science and Engineering Fair in Los Angeles, California,
USA."

This actually endorses a study in the journal Molecular Oral Microbiology.

Researchers now believe that Omega-3 fatty acids (found in salmon and
walnuts) may blast bad breath better than most other cures.

The scientists said that Omega-3s, even in small doses taken via
supplements, have a way of lowering the amount of bacteria and other
pathogens in the mouth that cause bad breath.

Look no further...freshen your breath at work especially after hours
of a "shut mouth" situation.

Lagos State Civil Servants Get Six Months Maternity Leave

"The Lagos State government has appealed to the female civil servants
in the state to take the advantage of the six months maternity leave
approved for them to breastfeed their babies exclusively for healthy
growth of the babies.


The State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris, while speaking at
the breastfeeding awareness week organised by a charity, Child Health
Advocacy Initiative (CHAI) in collaboration with Ikeja Local
Government Authority in Lagos noted that the state government is doing
all in its power to ensure that child health is given the best of
care.


He said that global leaders met in year 2000 and came up with eight
point agenda known as Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) on health
and other issues to put global health in proper perspectives,
stressing that one of the objectives was to reduce child morbidity and
maternal mortality to the nearest minimum.

In Lagos State today, there is free medical treatment for children
below the age of five years, so as to reduce the burden of
out-of-pocket payment by parents and to encourage them to visit the
health care institutions as soon as they notice that their children
are ill."


That's great! We are now waiting for the private sector to come up
with their own "baby friendly" policy. It could centred around a work
from home option.

Addicted to Ice? Why You Should Kick the Habit!

It was quite unbelievable to find out that there was actually such a
thing as "ice addiction". Pagophagia is a term that refers to being
addicted to eating ice cubes or taking iced drinks.

I've been an "ice chewer" for quite a while though I had a long break
off it. My friends and I used to have our preferences; ice cubes,
crushed ice, frost from the freezer... Different kinds of ice appealed
to me at different times.

But if there was anything I noticed it was having a craving for ice
whenever I was pregnant. I would have been off ice but once I was
pregnant I would start craving ice.

Then recently I picked it up again... Soft ice preferred...Then I
decided to research this eating ice thing and found out tons of people
were also chewing ice. What?! Ice addiction?! Pagophagia?!
So I've made up my mind to kick the habit, don't want to pass it on to
my kids and I certainly don't like the "addiction" part.

You're probably wondering "ice?" or you're thinking "a soul mate in
ice chewing!" Well I've made up my mind to stop before my husband
locks the freezer on me.

But seriously let me share some facts I discovered:

1) Chewing ice may be a sign of stress, anemia or iron deficiency;
check with your doctor.

2)Chewing ice may just be a habit developed from boredom and not
necessarily as a result of an underlying medical condition.

3) A number of women actually say they have this craving for ice when pregnant.

4)Chewing ice doesn't help your teeth one bit:
It puts pressure on your teeth and can wear down and even crack your enamel.
It could also harm your gums.

5)Pica is a medical condition where people have the compulsive desire
to eat things that have no nutritional value whatsoever. These things
are not food at all; clay, dust, chalk, paint chips, pencil erasers,
ice...

6) Pregnant women can develop iron deficiency anaemia because of high
iron demands.

7)Ice chewing will NOT dilute your stomach acid, intefer with
digestion or give you stomach cancer.

8) Some people have "Burning mouth syndrome" and eating ice relieves
their mouth dryness or tingling.

So what do you have to say about this? As for me, I'm done!

TGIF Nuggets: 5 Evidences of The Connection Between Your Mind and Body

Thank God its Friday! As you go ahead to enjoy your weekend keep this
in mind; a merry heart is good medicine for the body but a broken
spirit dries up the bones.

Scientists now agree that there is indeed a serious connection between
the mind and the body:

1) People who are depressed have quadruple risks of heart attacks.

2) Laughter stimulates the immune system by increasing the activity of
germ fighting T-cells.

3) Laughter can help relieve chronic pain since it triggers the
release of pain-killing endorphins.

4)Laughter helps to slow down the production of stress hormones
(adrenaline and cortisol).

5)Increased risk of asthma, hypertension and cancer has been linked to
being depressed.

So keep your heart cheerful this weekend and beyond, it would do you a
lot of good!

12 Signs You're Involved with Emotionally Unavailable People (EUP)

In my book, The Ecstasy of Surrender I discuss how a soul mate must be
willing and available to have a relationship with you. If he or she is
unavailable this is not your soul mate at the present time. A
confusing part of being attracted to unavailable, commitment-phobic
people is that the emotional or sexual chemistry can feel so strong.
You accept behavior that you'd never tolerate in friends. Why? The
electricity can feel so incredible and rare, you mistake intensity for
intimacy. You make compromises you wouldn't typically consider in
order to give the relationship a chance. Still, connection or not, you
must take a sober look to determine if someone is truly available for
intimacy.

Hear this: Not everyone you feel a connection with, no matter how
mind-blowing, is your soul mate. You can fall for someone who is
totally wrong for you, as unfair and confounding as that reality can
be.

For a relationship to work, a soul connection must go both ways. Even
if the intuitive bond you feel is authentic, it can remain unrealized.
Just because someone might've been your soul mate in previous eras, it
doesn't mean he or she is right for you today. Perhaps the person
can't or won't reciprocate or is simply oblivious, a frustrating irony
you must accept. Don't put your life on hold for unrequited longing.
Love that is destined can never be stopped. Meanwhile, keep your
options open. How do you avoid getting entangled in dead-end or
delusional relationships where you see someone in terms of how you
wish them to be, not who they are? To start, here are some red flags
to watch for. Even one sign warns you to be careful. The more that are
present, the more danger exists.

12 Signs You're Involved with Emotionally Unavailable People (EUP)

They are married or in a relationship with someone else

They can't commit to you or have feared commitment in past relationships

They have one foot on the gas pedal, one foot on the break

They are emotionally distant, shut down, or can't deal with conflict

They're mainly interested in sex, not relating emotionally or spiritually

They are practicing alcoholics, sex addicts, or substance abusers

They prefer long distance relationships, emails, texting, or don't
introduce you to their friends and family

They are elusive, sneaky, frequently working or tired, and may
disappear for periods

They are seductive with you but make empty promises--their behavior
and words don't match

They send mixed messages, flirt with others, or don't give a straight
answer--you're always trying to "de-code" what they really mean

They're narcissistic, only consider themselves, not your needs

They throw you emotional crumbs or enticing hints of their potential
to be loving, then withdraw

At first, some of these signs may be more obvious than others. It's
tricky: we tend to show our best selves in the honeymoon stage of a
romance. It can take time for a person's unavailability to emerge. One
patient lamented, "I need a crystal ball. The first few months of a
courtship, a man is so attentive, caring, passionate." Partially,
she's right, but it's also true that we tend to see what we want to
see. That's why it's eye-opening to look at a partner's relationship
history. Who he or she was previously with reveals volumes about their
capacity for intimacy now. Beware of rationalizing, "I'm different.
This person would never be that way with me."

I don't care how mightily someone blames the blood curdling horrors of
an ex for a relationship's demise, this person played a role too.
Being able to admit that or trying to understand the reasons for
making such a terrible choice is a positive sign. Playing the victim
is not.

Over the years, I've worked with many perplexed, lonely patients to
uncover why they keep holding a torch for unavailable,
commitment-phobic partners and how to surrender this sabotaging
pattern. Most of us aren't purposely drawn to these kinds of
people--their mixed messages combined with our particular
susceptibilities, conscious or unconscious, can lure us in. Also, it
helps to understand that unavailable people rarely choose to be this
way. It's an unconscious defence against trauma or some emotional
wounding of the past. Research has shown that many are afraid of being
clung to or smothered which stems from having had a controlling,
engulfing, or abusive parent.

Commitment-phobic men, in particular, may just prefer sex without
love. They are afraid of being controlled by feminine energy, though
they don't know it or couldn't admit it. Rather, they see themselves
as macho dudes who think women always need more than they can give.
Thus, they prefer to play in shallow water, not go deep. If being in a
relationship with an unavailable person feels like love to you, I urge
you to look closer. Commitment phobic women also fear intimacy and
want to keep a distance.

To find true love, ideally you want to avoid getting involved with
anyone who can't reciprocate your affections. If you are in a toxic,
abusive, or non-reciprocal relationship, withdraw even when your
passion is strong and says "stay." It may feel excruciating to let go
when you don't want to or if you're still hoping against hope that the
person will change, but, as my Daoist teacher once told me, "The heart
knows when it's enough."

Dr Ameyo Stella Adadevoh Dies After Her Battle With Ebola

Dr Ameyo Stella Adadevoh of Senior Consultant and Endocrinologist at
First Consultants Hospital has
died from the Ebola Virus
Disease, which she
contracted after attending to
Patrick Sawyer, the Liberian/ American who sneaked the
disease into Nigeria.

She took up the responsibility to alert the authorities that "ebola
was in her hospital", and prevented him from leaving the hospital.

Imagine the compassion she would have shown when Patrick Sawyer
urinated on them...
She died yesterday, Tuesday, August 19, 2014, at an isolation
centre where she had been
quarantined along with other
doctors and nurses who treated Sawyer at First Consultants
Hospital, Obalende, Lagos.

Minister of health, Professor
Onyebuchi Chukwu issued a
statement clarifying that she
was not the survivor that was discharged over the weekend.

She is survived by her son and
husband.

May her soul rest in peace.

7 Successful Habits of the Emotionally Intelligent Parent

Children are highly emotional beings and we parents have the
responsibility to guide them especially when it comes to managing
their emotions.

Emotional intelligence has to do with not only recognising and
managing our own emotions but the emotions of others.

Did I just see you throw out the towel? Did I hear you just say

"Kids are a bundle of emotions so I'll just leave them to outgrow
that phase, I have issues of mine"?

"After a long hard day at work the last thing I want to hear is about
Junior whining about something unimportant."?

There's no need to feel overwhelmed, simply take the lessons for
yourself and as you learn, share with your children.

So let's go:

1) Recognise your child's negative emotions as an opportunity for a
heart to heart talk rather than just dismissing or accepting all
emotional expressions of your child.

2) Be patient with your child's expression of sadness, anger or
frustration. Spend time with your child to educate him/her;
troubleshoot and solve the problem. Don't just think that he/she would
change with time.

3) Focus more on the meaning of the emotion rather than how the child
should "get over" the emotion. It's important to know why, and help
the child understand why because many times kids are not even able to
articulate their frustrations.

4) Be empathetic. Don't throw the issue out of the window, sweep it
under the carpet or trivialise it just because it doesn't mean
anything to you. Put yourself in their shoes...then you'll understand
what they feel.

5) Don't be judgmental. You shouldn't make your child feel he/she has
committed a crime for expressing displeasure. It's not a sign of
weakness. Rather, teach him/her to find the right words for
expression.

6) Give room for behaviour relapses; it will take time for your child
to learn better ways of expression.

7) Acknowledge attempts by your child to improve his/her communication
skills and give continuous encouragement. Everyone loves that.

Remember that our children copy what we do and most importantly who we
are, unconsciously. If you don't like your children behaving
impatiently to each other, check yourself, that may just be how you
behave towards them.

When we have something important to achieve the tendency is for us to
"push the children aside" instead of just saying "Daddy wants to do
something very important and would be right back. Can you give me an
hour?"

And please make sure you keep your words. Let our children know us as
people of integrity so they too will become people of integrity.

Happy Parenting!

5 Facts To Note About Fertility

Have these at the back of your mind if you are experiencing any form
of delay in having children:

1)It's not a hopeless case if the doctors couldn't find anything wrong
with either you or your partner. There doesn't have to be anything
"wrong" with both of you.

2) Once you have fertility issues the only available option is not the
"almighty" IVF (in vitro fertilization; fertilizing eggs outside the
body then planting back in the woman).
Most cases of infertility can be treated with fertility drugs and
other medical therapies.

3) Common causes of infertility in women:

Irregular Periods

Blocked tubes

Endometriosis; condition where endometrial tissue is formed outside
the uterus. Painful periods and pain in the pelvic area is
experienced.

Thyroid condition

Hormonal imbalance

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease

4) Abnormalities in the semen is a common cause of infertility in men.

5) Being overweight, Stress and smoking can affect fertility in both
men and women. It's important to take regular short breaks from work
if you're becoming overwhelmed, especially if you're working on having
a baby. Experts have also recommended relaxation exercises for couples
working on conceiving.

Nigerian Researchers Submit Drugs to Fight Ebola

A pharmaceutical research centre in Abuja, Ben Amodu Firms and
Research Center, Saturday said it has submitted drug samples to the
Federal Government that have the efficacy to tackle Ebola virus.

The Chairman of the Centre, Pharmacist Ben Amodu, said the centre had
produced drugs for the treatment of haemorrhagic fevers, which could
also be used for Ebola virus.

He said the drugs have been submitted to the committee set up by the
minister of health recently on Ebola adding that

"We gave the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and
Control (NAFDAC) and World Health Organization (WHO) samples of the
drugs but the WHO later phoned and said they were not supposed to
verify Ebola drugs. I gave samples to the committee set by the
Minister of Health on Ebola virus and I hope that due process will be
followed in

He said the Centre was into research of neglected tropical diseases,
adding that the drugs

He said, "We got the drugs that cure Leishmaniasis and they have been
previewed. We invented a drug, DAABS 2 which also cures Dangue fever
which is viral Hemorrhagic fever and as you know Ebola is also a viral
Hemorrhagic fever. Their symptoms include fever, intense weakness of
the body system, vomiting, diarrhea, headache and internal and
external bleeding. If you remove the bleeding aspect the disease
becomes typhoid and

"The International Organisation for Scientific Research based in US,
Japan and India have also previewed us for the management of hepatitis
A,B,C,D,E and F, of which we have treated so many people. We have a
drug that stops bleeding, including those from cervical cancer and
uncontrolled menstrual flow. Our drug called SAABMAL was tested by the
World Health Organization to have 97 per cent effectiveness in all
forms of fever symptoms, including

"Another drug, TAABS 2 also has effects on fever while SAAB 6 has very
strong Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties as confirmed by
National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development
(NIPRD). Also one other drug SAAB is a very good immune booster"

Nigerian Doctor Initially Infected With EVD is Declared free From Ebola

Nigerians across the country were welcomed with cheering news of the
discharged of an Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) patient who has been
declared free from the virus.


In a statement,  Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu said the
development is commendable considering the concerted efforts by
government and other critical stakeholders to tame the spread of the
virus.
Chukwu in the statement said "the first Nigerian to be diagnosed with
EVD, a female doctor was discharged home this evening., says the
minister of health."


"As you are aware, the patients under treatment have now be moved to
the new 40 bed capacity isolation ward provided by the Lagos State
Government," the minister explained.


"Additional equipment has also been made available to the new
isolation ward by the Federal Government.
At present, 5 of the patients have almost fully recovered."

Why the UN, CDC and WHO Want You to Believe Ebola Has No Cure or Treatment…

.
Because then you will be afraid for your very life and you'll do what
they tell you – or else.

.

Let's start with the bottom line: Nano Silver inhibits every disease
organism it has ever been tested against, without exception. We have
documented proof that the US Government has known for at least 5 years
that Nano Silver is the world's only hope against Ebola and the other
antibiotics/anti-viral resistant pathogens. They've known but have
sought to suppress the truth. We are preparing a special white paper
that will expose this shocking deception. That revelation later this
week.

.

I call Nano Silver the Universal Anti Microbial and that's why the
Natural Solution Foundation now has its own brand of Nano Silver, Dr.
Rima Recommeds The Silver Solution

So when I wrote yesterday to the Heads of State of Liberia, Guinea,
Nigeria and Sierra Leone (and the Directors of WHO, Doctors Without
Borders) and other world leaders, I told them about Nano Silver and
offered to provide a protocol for them so they could stop the Ebola
outbreak dead in its tracks before any other people died in their
tracks.

.

The response? Silence. Stone, cold silence except for an auto
responder from the Ministry of Health in Sierra Leone thanking me for
my question.

.

I wasn't asking a question. I was solving their biggest problem: extermination.

.

So here is my new question: You know and I know that I am not the only
doctor who knows that Nano Silver is the Universal Antimicrobial, that
it's safe, inexpensive, self sterilizing, needs no refrigeration and
works against every single disease-causing bug its ever been tested
on.

.

You have to ask what they get out of not telling anyone, not distributing it.

.

Not sharing the good news.

.

The answer is that our bad news is their good news.

.

Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea are already reported to be under WHO
governance since WHO declared a Level 3 Emergency, which gives it the
"right" to assume "Essential Government Functions".

.

New Zealand is preparing for an Ebola outbreak, so is the UK, so is
Germany (to which an Ebola patient is being transported for
treatment). So is the US.

.

But if everyone has Nano Silver and uses it, the excuse to institute
the New World Order government to "save" us, via the Global Health
Security Initiative, aka "Agenda 21 in a Syringe" will fall apart.

.

Everyone needs to know that they have this option and right now the
media is howling that there is no treatment, no prevention.

.

They are either misinformed or lying, but that error or lie will kill
vast numbers of people.

.

If ever you were active before, now is the time to redouble those efforts.

.

If you were not active, now is the time to change that.

.

Your life depends on it. Literally.

.

Yours in health and freedom,
.

Dr. Rima

Rima E. Laibow MD, Natural Solutions Foundation Medical Director,
saying Nano Silver likely to address genetically novel Ebola Virus
offers hope for nations impacted by the West African Ebola outbreak
and the rest of the world. "No one has to die from Ebola; the Natural
Solution already exists: Nano Silver."

Press Release: Renowned Physician Offers Ebola Hope

Rima E. Laibow MD, Natural Solutions Foundation Medical Director,
saying Nano Silver likely to address genetically novel Ebola Virus
offers hope for nations impacted by the West African Ebola outbreak
and the rest of the world. "No one has to die from Ebola; the Natural
Solution already exists: Nano Silver."

An Ebola Virus outbreak caused by a novel Ebola strain, which was
apparently introduced into the human population through a single case
in 2013, now threatens to spread globally.

Accelerating since that time, the devastating disease, which WHO says
kills up to 90% of its victims, is raging through West Africa and
threatens to break out into countries with transportation links to
that area. Current "authoritative" information asserts that there is
no prevention and no cure for the disease, whether it has been
weaponized (as some believe) or not.

Based on strong scientific evidence, however, Rima E. Laibow, MD,
Medical Director of the Natural Solutions Foundation, disagrees and
says that both therapy and prevention for this deadly disease exists.
Dr. Laibow says that the genetic changes which make it so deadly do
not make it immune to the mechanism of action of Nano Silver so there
is, in fact, a simple, non-toxic prevention and therapy nutrient which
has proven effective against every pathogen tested worldwide.

In fact, Dr. Laibow sent an Open Letter on July 29, 2014 to the 4
Heads of State and their Ministers of Health of the African nations
most directly impacted by the current Ebola outbreak: Nigeria,
Liberia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone, together with other world leaders,
including the President of the United States and the Directors of the
World Health Organization and Doctors Without Borders.

Her Open Letter, with more than two dozen citations, can be read in
full here: http://tinyurl.com/StopEbola

In that letter, Dr. Laibow, who was invited to address 47 African
Ministers of Health in Mombasa in 2007, pointed out the powerful
advantages of Nano Silver in the current Ebola outbreak stating, "The
entire world grieves with you and watches in fear and hope as the
terrible Ebola virus takes an increasing number of lives in your
countries while valiant people try to stem the tide. But, without
effective, inexpensive countermeasures, containment will, as we all
know, be impossible. The recent kidnapping of an afflicted woman from
a hospital in Freetown, her subsequent death, and the arrival of an
Ebola victim at the airport in Lagos makes that all too apparent."

Dr. Rima, as she is widely known, is a world-renowned physician who
has practiced drug-free psychiatry and environmental medicine for over
40 years. She urges safe, gentle, and effective natural solutions to
health care issues, including the most serious.

The use of Nano Silver, a natural nutritional remedy, as Dr. Rima
notes in her review of relevant scientific literature, has enormous
promise as a well-documented therapeutic strategy against every known
pathogen; even if this highly lethal variance of the Ebola virus has
been weaponized, as recent reports indicate.

Because of its unique method of action, organisms cannot become
resistant to Nano Silver, which is approved as a non-toxic surface
cleaner for hospital and food service areas by the US FDA.

Coincidentally, just before the eruption of the Ebola outbreak, the
Natural Solutions Foundation released its own brand of Nano Silver
because Dr. Rima's research showed it to be what she calls "The
Universal Microbial," inhibiting pathogens but leaving the beneficial
bacteria of the gut intact while supporting normal immune function.
"That means," she says, "Nano Silver is a safe Medical Food for every
member of the community from the youngest to the eldest." The new
brand of Nano Silver is available at http://www.DrRimaKnows.com

Dr. Rima will share her Nano Silver Pro-Immunity Protocol with
individuals and appropriate health care providers so that the victims
of Ebola may have hope.

Natural Solutions Foundation President, Maj. Gen. Albert Stubblebine
III (US Army, Ret.), supports Dr. Rima's Open Letter by observing,
"Only Nano Silver can prevent an Ebola Global Health Security
cataclysm. We are all only one airplane ride away from a world
pandemic."

Workplace Stress: The Sex-starved Marriage


Most employers would like to leave a sign outside that says "leave your problems at home" but the truth is everyone actually brings "baggage" to work. It may be good or bad, make or mar , promote or impede productivity...It just happens.

The "Baggage" of a "Sex-starved Marriage:

"Sex is an extremely important part of marriage. When it's good, it offers couples opportunities to give and receive physical pleasure, to connect emotionally and spiritually. It builds closeness, intimacy and a sense of partnership. It defines their relationship as different from all others. In short, sex is a powerful tie that binds"- Michelle Weiner-Davis.

Except of Chapter One of  "The Sex-starved Marriage" by Michelle Weiner-Davis:

As with Debra and Tom, when one spouse isn't interested in sex, the touching, kissing, and other forms of physical affection and intimacy often drop out as well. Spouses distance from each other emotionally. They carry on their lives together in much the same way that two toddlers might engage in parallel play- involved in similar activities in close proximity, but without meaningful connection. Marriage becomes mechanical. Friendship often evaporates. Anger bubbles just below the surface. Misunderstandings abound. Emotional divorce becomes inevitable.


When they try to explain these feelings to their partners, their explanations are often flatly dismissed. "You don't have the need to feel closer to me, you're just a sex maniac," or "If you would have to go to work in the real world rather than be home with the kids, you would understand why I'm so tired all the time," or "If you weren't so controlling, you would just accept that I'm not as physical as you are and you would leave me alone,!" or "It's only sex, what's the big deal?"

However, to someone like Tom- the partner yearning for a better sexual relationship- being lovers is a big deal. It's much more than mere physical pleasure. It's connection, intimacy, closeness, and affection. It's about feeling attractive, feeling masculine/feminine, and feeling whole as a person. It's about being in love. It's about a feeling of oneness.

But since people with low sexual desire aren't hungering for a sexual connection, they're not overly empathetic to their spouses' feelings and do little to make significant changes in their relationships.

Eventually, feelings of rejection become increasingly difficult to manage. Sadness turns to anger. Those yearning for more physical closeness vacillate between being distant and unpleasant. And although these behaviors are merely symptoms of underlying hurt, people with low sexual desire don't perceive their spouses' behavior quite so benevolently. Empathy is in short supply. Arguments about sex, or the lack of it, become the norm. Blame-slinging disagreements add to the already icy distance between spouses. Then, like a runaway train, it's not long before their bitterness and animosity collide head-on with every other aspect of their relationship. Nothing seems right anymore...


 Do you find yourself:

Going to bed earlier or later than your spouse just to avoid the possibility s/he might get amorous?

Lying in bed at night, careful not to stir for fear that s/he might start touching you?

Being sexual out of guilt rather than feeling desirous?

Arguing with your spouse about sex frequently.

Blaming each other.

Do you find yourself thinking or saying:

"By the end of the day, I'm just too tired and have no interest in sex."

"If you had to work as hard as me, maybe you'd understand why I have no interest in sex."

"How can we have sex? The kids are always around."

"If you were nicer to me maybe I'd be interested."

"Why do you always have to touch me in a sexual way?" 

"If you weren't such a sex fanatic, I'd probably want more sex."

"If you'd help more around the house, I'd want to be closer to you sexually."

"I just don't feel turned on anymore."

"I have a lot on my mind right now. Sex is just not all that important to me."

OR

Have you been feeling hurt, depressed, resentful or angry about your husband or wife?s lack of interest in sex?

As a result, do you find yourself being highly critical or bossy?

Out of anger, have you berated your spouse or been mean-spirited? 

Have your feelings of resentment about your married sex life prompted you to shut down emotionally and pull away from your spouse?

Do you wonder whether your spouse really loves you?

Do you question your attractiveness or masculinity/femininity?

Do you intentionally make plans that don't include your husband or wife?

Do you feel yourself building a wall around you to protect yourself from feelings of rejection?

Do you feel you've tried everything but your spouse simply doesn't understand how important sexuality is to you?

Are you feeling tempted to stray beyond your marriage to find companionship and sexual excitement? 

If you've answered "yes" to several of these questions, your marriage is at risk of becoming sex-starved. Here's what you need to do to get things on track now:

Ebola Update: Experimental Drug "Nanosilver" to be Used In Nigeria

Health Minister Oneybuchi Chukwu confirmed that an experimental drug
for the treatment of Ebola has been sent by a Nigerian in diaspora and
will be arriving on Thursday in the country.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has approved the drug called
"Nanosilver" in the case of the current Ebola outbreak. As such, the
drug can now be used in spite of it still being experimental, since
the WHO has deemed experimental treatments ethical when they address
the Ebola pandemic that has been wreaking havoc in western Africa.



Bad Habits That Can Rob You of A Good Night's Sleep

Your performance and productivity during the day is strongly dependent
on how well you slept the night before.

Leaving the office late, getting stuck in traffic and having a late,
heavy, starchy dinner may just be setting you up for "a rough next
day" if you don't get the reward of a good night's sleep.

Here are sleep robbers that you should guard against:

1) Taking coffee, tea or caffeinated drinks after 6pm.

2) Television in your bedroom; watching TV from your bed.

3) Carrying out mental work in your bedroom; your bedroom is now an
extension of your office or workplace.

4) Being on medications like steroids, anti-hypertensives, anti-depressants.

5) Eating a heavy starchy meal before going to bed.

6) Using your mobile phone a lot in the evening.

Tips to Help Improve Your Sleep:

1) Keep a regular sleep cycle; make it a habit of going to bed and
rising in the morning around the same time (even on weekends).

2) Make your bedroom sleep friendly; throw out bright lights, TVs,
PCs, Laptops, Mobile phones and pets. Firm up your bed and invest in
cotton bed sheets.

3) Squeeze out time to exercise daily; Exercise helps to flush out
stress hormones produced from a hectic day at work thereby boosting
the quality of your sleep. You may even choose to get a threadmill or
stationery bike if you usually get home after dark.

4) No caffeine after 6pm! No coffee, no tea, no caffeinated drinks.

5) Nicotine and Alcohol are no go areas.

6) Clear Your mind! Use a pen and paper to get those predominant
thoughts out of your mind; the "to dos" "should haves" "I need tos"
and " how could I"s.

Insomnia (poor quality of sleep, abnormal wakefulness) can make you
highly irritable, anxious and unproductive during the day so please
invest in getting a good night's sleep.

Dropping Belly Fat: Does Spot Reduction Really Work?

My neighbour asked me few days ago about what she could do to "reduce
belly fat". I could understand her concern as few months back I
actually thought she was expecting a fourth child.

I have first hand experience of an ineffective "spot reduction"
program. Tons of bicycle crunches, sit ups and leg lifts directed at
one "spot" (the belly) but in the end the "fat remains intact".

What went wrong?

Well exercises like the ones above improve muscle tone and endurance
rather than "Burn fat" directly .

Exercises that increase the heart rate such as jogging or cycling will
place a demand on the fat stores in the body for energy.

Experts recommend doing at least 3 sessions of 20-45 minute aerobic
exercises every week.

Here are some aerobic activities that you can pick out based on your interest:

Cycling
Walking briskly
Aerobic dancing
Martial Arts
Boxing
Water sports

So the best way to "shape up" is a combination of these:

1) Reduce your fat intake; oily and fried foods especially.

2) Avoid eating late; don't miss your breakfast and lunch because that
would get you extremely hungry in the evening. Your last meal should
be at least 2hrs before bedtime and remember to "eat supper like a
pauper".

3) Incorporate strength and toning exercises with aerobic exercises.
Always consult your doctor before embarking on any exercise regimen.

Point to Note:

Don't start out too hard or too fast so you don't injure yourself.
Keep your exercising at a comfortable level in the beginning.

Choose aerobic activities that you are interested in not just because
these activities seem to be the "in thing".

Come on! Get up and Get in shape!
