A survey conducted in Japan has revealed that almost half of the population are avoiding having seks.
The survey, conducted by the Japan Family Planning Association, shows that amongst respondents- 48. 3% of men and 50. 1% of women reported not having been involved in any bedroom hijinks of any sort over the past month.
The survey was conducted to measure the attitudes towards seks in the highly developed economy, as statistics show deaths outnumber births in Japan: a situation with dire consequences if not sufficiently tackled.
FIFA President Sepp Blatter is in the midst of a corruption scandal like he’s never had to contend with, and whilst he’s agreed to eventually step down, he’s still maintaining that he has nothing to do with the corrupt practices.
Blatter wants us to believe that he’s headed an organisation for close to two decades, which is being investigated for charges that run even further back, that all his top cronies have been indicted; but he was blissfully oblivious to all that.
Not just that, the FIFA boss believes that he would definitely go to heaven, and that anyone who calls him corrupt should be jailed.
Imagine the kind of gumption you would need to take such a decision and stick to it.
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal of Saudi Arabia is one of the richest men in the world. And in a quite surprising turn of events, he has announced plans to donate his entire $32bn fortune to charity.
According to Mail Online, Prince Alwaleed, 60, is targeting only charities working for women’s rights and those dedicated to the eradication of diseases.
Prince Alwaleed already has a reputation for extravagance, as he reportedly gave 25 Bentleys to members of a Saudi Arabia football team.
The Ghanaians who are so busy here contesting a decision that has no bearing on our miserable lives, such as so-called best journalist Manasseh Awuni; can rest easy knowing there are such hate-filled bigots out there doing the fighting for them.
An American minister based in Iowa, who occasionally performs gay marriages, received a terrible note from a neighbour who was disgusted that he officiates gay marriages.
Reverend Gilbert McBride, who recently lost his wife and is still in mourning, discovered the note on the bonnet of his car one morning.
The disgruntled writer notes that his affinity with homosexuals is what has led to God punishing him by taking away his wife’s life. The bigot, who took his time to neatly type his note; hoped that Rev McBride contracts AIDS from his gay friends and dies ‘a slow and ugly death’.

Ahead of tomorrow’s July 1 Republic Day celebrations in Ghana, President John Dramani Mahama has granted amnesty to some 900 prisoners across the country. The presidential pardon was granted based on ill health, advanced age and satisfactory behaviour of inmates. So this means, about 900 prisoners who have not finished serving their sentences will become … Read more
It’s not like its anything special when ISIS executes homosexuals, but their latest stunt was timed to coincide with the US Supreme Court Ruling that legalised gay marriage across all fifty states of the union.
On that Friday, the Islamic State caliphate executed four gay men, throwing them off the top of high rise buildings to fall to their death before a gathered crowd of citizens.
The manhunt for two escaped convicts in the USA has ended after the second suspect was shot and captured by a state trooper on Sunday. The escaped prisoner, David Sweat, is currently in critical condition at the Albany Medical Centre due to injuries he sustained during the events leading to his arrest. The second escapee, … Read more
The US Supreme Court’s decision to legalise gay marriage nationwide has provoked such visceral reactions from the Christian right that makes you wonder if they’re really Christian.
For adherents of a religion whose founder rather famously asked them to love their enemies and do good to those that hate them, Christians aren’t being very Christ-like in reacting to this ruling. Of course, the bible also asks them to kill the gays in the Old Testament, and they aren’t doing that either. It’s all very confusing.
A pastor in Texas took things to a whole new level when he threatened that him and some of his pastor friends are ready ‘to burn’ to protest the ruling if need be. Sounding filled with bravado and very martyr-like, Rick Scarborough said, before Friday’s judgement…
Though the amount President Obama’s half-brother-Malik Abongo “Roy” Obama sold this handwritten letter for is yet unknown—what is known is that a letter the president of United States penned about 20 years ago which revealed certain important personal ambition details have been sold by the brother.
In the said letter, Obama makes it clear his ambition and the reason why he was going into politics and this includes “to deal with some serious issues blacks face here.”
Obama wrote then that;
“Some colleagues of mine here have talked me into running for the Illinois State Senate (like being an MP for a province),” the future world leader wrote his kin in July 1995, before his political career began. “I have agreed, since I have an interest in politics to deal with some serious issues blacks face here.”
Not just that, the letter also reveals Obama’s dislike for meetings, saying, “Of course, it involves a lot of campaigning, going to meetings and so on, which I don’t find so attractive.” He adds, “Anyway, if I win it will only be a part-time post, and I will continue my work as a lawyer.”
This handwritten letter was reportedly sold by Malik as a package with a copy of a manuscript of Obama’s first book, “Dreams From My Father,” with handwritten notes. And it also gives an update on First Lady Michelle and his late mother, who died later that year.
Often one of the biggest commercial ventures in any economy, churches often escape taxes because they have been given a certain reverence as being ‘the abode of God’.
So people go there all the time to give away their money, get nothing in return, and the unscrupulous pastors profit off their congregations; all of this tax-free.
This is going to change, at least in Zimbabwe. Reports indicate the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority is working on a law to enable them tax churches as well.
The commissioner of the Authority, Gershem Pasi, made this known when he appeared before a legislative committee, according to Zimbabwe’s Herald.
A Tunisian terrorist has killed 37 tourists and injured about 36 at a Beach in the Tunisia today.
The massacre coincides with a suicide bomb at a Shiite mosque in the Kuwaiti capital and a suspected Islamist launching an assault on a gas factory in eastern France.
The assassin is believed to be Seifeddine Yacoubi, 23, an aviation student from the Tunisian city of Kairouan–and he used an AK47, which he was seen holding later on camera while strolling the streets of Sousse, the popular resort town.
The three attacks which took place today marks a new low point in the global terror onslaught. In Kuwait, 25 were killed and more than 200 injured in a suicide bomb – the first attack in the country since 2005.
And in France, the victim was decapitated, the first time that grim method had been used in the country.
So far, Islamic State (ISIS) has claimed responsibility for the Kuwait incident, but the affiliation and inspiration of the other attackers remained unclear.
Isis’s chief spokesman, Abu Mohammad al-Adnani, called on jihadists earlier this week to “make the month of Ramadan a calamity on the apostates” by stepping up attacks and seeking “martyrdom”.
Even in America gay people have to fight homophobia, mostly fuelled by religiously driven people. In a landmark ruling the US Supreme Court has set the way for people to follow, whether they like it or not.
By a 5-4 ruling in a long argued case, the United States Supreme Court has ruled that same seks marriage is a right for everyone of that orientation, and that the right has to be enforced nationwide.
14 US states have bans on gay marriage, and this ruling annuls those bans.
The most strenuous objectors to this are religious, mostly Christian dominant states, who refuse to acknowledge the rights of other human beings because of the instructions in their 2,000 year old dusty bronze age book.
Luckily in civilised societies, we have institutions, such as the judiciary, to watch out for minorities.
Dzokhar Tsarnaev was handed the death penalty by trial judge George O’Toole for his role in the bombing that killed 3 and injured 260 people.
Tsarnaev and elder brother Tamerlan set off bombs at the finish line of the 2013 Boston Marathon. His brother was killed in the manhunt for the duo, leaving Dzokhar to face trial.
A jury had earlier reached the verdict, but the formal sentencing was done by Judge O’Toole. Allowed to speak to his victims, Tsarnaev accepted responsibility and apologised for his actions.
