Wow! Wow! The Dresses of Emmy 2013


The 65th Primetime Emmy Awards was held on Sunday, September 22

“Breaking Bad” won the big prize for outstanding drama. “Modern Family” won its fourth straight Emmy for outstanding comedy. There were plenty of upsets this year and no shortage of beautiful dresses on the red parpet.

Some of my personal favourites are the dresses worn by Kerry Washington, a very pregnant Brooke Anderson, and Amy Poehler.


View some of the dresses of the Emmys 2013 in the slideshow after the cut. 

$270m Worth of Cocaine Found on Air France Flight


CNN Reports  that 1.3 tons of pure cocaine was found on an Air France flight on September 11 stuffed inside anonymous bags. What was odd is that 30 colourful suitcases showed up on a flight from Venezuela and they were not registered to anyone on the flight.

The cocaine has a street value of 200 million Euros or $270 million.

Spirit and Life Devotional: Bondservants of Christ


 "A person who is obligated to serve without wages." Synonyms include: convict, detainee, captive, hostage, prisoner, prisoner of war, slave, servant. And as you know, a prisoner is deprived of many of his rights. Knowing all these, Paul and the apostles chose to call themselves bondservants of Christ!

Galatians 1:10 says, "For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I now seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ." Here's how The Message interprets it, "Do you think I speak this strongly in order to manipulate crowds? Or curry favour with God? Or get popular applause? If my goal was popularity, I wouldn't bother being Christ's slave."

Inspired? 10-year-old female entrepreneur is setting the world on fire


Asia Newson, at the age of 10, is leaving her imprint on the hearts and minds of industry leaders in Detroit, USA.

“I want to let everyone know that I am Detroit’s youngest entrepreneur and I like to do what I like to do,” Asia recently told Local 4.

Newson is a young businesswoman who is determined to live life on her own terms. She sells candles with her father and wants other young people to understand the value of hard work. “I teach young people, like myself, how to make their own money,” Newson said about her business, Super-Business Girl.

SEE The PHOTO that has stirred lots of controversy in the African-American community (LOOK)

In a picture that has gone viral on social media outlets, many are proclaiming that the notion of a post-racial America is just an excuse for some people to say, do, and in this instance, wear whatever they want without any recourse.

A picture has surfaced of a young white woman wearing an “I Love My N*gga” t-shirt while standing next to a young African-American male. The names of the aforementioned people are not circulating with the image, but the image does raise startling questions as to why anyone would be ok with anyone wearing a t-shirt of that nature.

"Catholic leaders need to find new balance": Pope Francis makes more controversial statements in support of gay people (READ FULL INTERVIEW)

Pope Francis said religion has the right to express its opinions but not to "interfere spiritually" in the lives of gays and lesbians, expanding on explosive comments he made in July about not judging homosexuals.

In a wide-ranging interview published yesterday by Jesuit magazines, the pope also said that women must play a key role in church decisions and brushed off critics who say he should advocate more vocally against abortion and gay marriage.
If Catholic leaders fail to find a "new balance" between their spiritual and political missions, the pope warned, the church's moral foundation will "fall like a house of cards."

Spirit and Life Devotional: In the Name of Jesus (Who We Are)


Wow! I've desired for years to preach this message!

In ministering to people - including some of you reading this, when I pray for them or prophesy to them, on their own, they'll add "in Jesus name" before saying Amen. And I'll just smile. I understand them. But you see, there's a deeper level of understanding that they need.

Spirit and Life Devotional: Resisting the Devil


There are believers who are so afraid of satan that they try to avoid his trouble by letting sleeping dogs lie. They think satan is asleep, so they don't want to wake him up. Such people don't know the devil; they don't know how much satan hates them. Satan seeks footholds, always on the move, and while you're trying to avoid him, he's busy consolidating his hold!

Spirit and Life Devotional: How Are The Mighty Fallen

The story of Samson is very heartbreaking. Samson was a man greatly anointed by God; a judge of Israel for twenty years; a hero; probably the strongest man who ever lived; yet in Judges 16:21 we read how he was made a grinder in prison! How are the mighty fallen!

Saul and Jonathan were said to be swifter than eagles and stronger than lions. They did many exploits; they were anointed men of God; yet they died shameful deaths in battle. "How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!" 2 Samuel 1:27
