Three Ways to Increase Your Faith.

How do you increase your faith? I used to struggle with this as a young Christian. But in time I’ve learned at least three simple ways to help build and increase our reliance on God.

1. Read the Word or Hearing the Word.

Romans 10:17 (NKJV) says, So then, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. If no one had ever told me about Jesus, and about God’s plan for my life, or if I had never read for myself about Him, I would be clueless about the need for faith.

Potential Super-Antioxidant In Coffee May Protect Against Obesity

Past research has shown coffee is packed with antioxidants and their subsequent benefits, potentially preventing conditions like cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Now, a new study suggests a chemical compound found in coffee might protect against a host of obesity-related diseases, as well. So, what’s this buzzy nutrient in your cup of joe?

It’s a potent antioxidant called chlorogenic acid (CGA), which scientists focused on in a new study published in Pharmaceutical Research. For 15 weeks, the researchers fed mice a high-fat diet while also injecting them with a chlorogenic acid solution twice a week. Not only did the CGA prevent the mice from gaining weight during the test period, but the effects against obesity were also promising.

Sex Workers Using Anti-HIV Drugs Instead Of Condoms

In Kenya 1.5 million people are living with HIV, and there are about 100,000 new infections every year. Despite this, some sex workers are having unprotected sex - and taking antiretroviral drugs afterwards to cut the infection risk. How reckless is this?

"Let me tell you the truth about why many of us don't use condoms," says Sheila who has been a prostitute in Nairobi's Korogocho slum for six years.

How To Get A Woman To Agree To Your Marriage Proposal

There are so many reasons why a woman will accept a man’s proposal. On the other hand, there are so many reasons she would not accept.

Here are steps to make her say ‘Yes’;

You are not hasty;

What Real Men Want Is More Than Great Sex

We got this letter from our reader. Ladies and Gentlemen, do you agree with his point of view? Why? Do you have anything to add? You're also welcome to share your experience with us!

"Intimacy is a vital part of relationships, but being a sex kitten won't keep your man happy".

"I love sex. I love a woman who is self-aware and in charge of her sexuality. I love a woman that can push the limits with me, really turn me on, and become my sexual equal. I love a woman whose creativity in bed blows me away so much, I can't stop thinking about her all day long. I love women who surprise me with brazen and daring ideas. As a competitive man, of course, I try to turn her on even more than she has turned me on. I love that type of woman. It's the type of woman I can imagine being with for a long time.

Men Fake Orgasms More Often Than Women.

Let’s face it; most of us, both men and woman, have experienced a not-so-honest orgasm from our partners. Perhaps she was getting bored, tired or simply fed-up with your skill-set, or lack of.  So, she fakes the Big O.  Great job Big Daddy – you’ve done it!  You’ve satisfied your woman so good…

Thanks to Hollywood demonstrations of women faking orgasms in bed – “When Harry Met Sally” and “Sex In The City” – most believe that women frequently fake cumming. But the truth is men fake orgasms more often than women.

Reasons Why You Should Not Eat After 7pm

According to Louis J. Arnone, director of the comprehensive weight control program at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, eating late at night is the equivalent of eating an extra meal. It also elevates triglyceride levels, which are associated with metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and heart disease.

More reasons to stop eating after 7pm:

If you eat late at night, your body stores the calories instead of burning them off. Weight gain, here we come! On the positive side, when you finish eating dinner before 7pm (assuming you go to bed before 11pm), you give your body time to digest the food you’ve eaten. That in turn means your stomach is not trying to work while you’re sleeping. That means less chance of acid reflux. And of course you’ll sleep better, which leads to better overall health.

6 Things In Marriage That Men Find Irresistible In Women

The best way to kindle romance in marital relationships is to play around with time, place and style. Keep the sex in air and let your actions take the charge! Add humour, fun, sneaky moves and everything you can do to bring spark inside the bedroom walls.

Six things in marriage that men cannot resist in a woman;

1. Go Out for Dinner:

Now, on this dinner, you are just allowed to talk about your hidden fantasies. Whisper some naughty things in his ear. For men it’s really a turn ‘ON’, when women act naughty with them, especially in a public place. All these talk will explode his mind in ecstasy and eventually leading to a great sex for the two of you.

Sexy Tip: Order foods that are lascivious like chocolate cake or mousse. Chocolate contains phenylethylamine (PEA) which releases same endorphins that flood our bodies during love-making.

Why Christian Dating Is So Difficult?

I’ve heard a guy say he thought dating someone from his church felt fake because you are never free to express yourself, there seem to be many more don’ts than dos.

I think many new believers go through this. The real problem is an obvious one here. I want to start by asking one question though; If all you needed to pass a particular exam was to simply show up and write your name, would you bother to study hard?

Instructions On How Not To Be An Over Jealous In Your Relationship

Do you worry that you’re smothering the relationship with your fears? To stop being an overly-jealous girlfriend and start being a dream girl, follow these instructions.

1. Give your partner space

If you’ve been dogging his footsteps, confronting him with accusations, stalking his social media profiles, or exhibiting any other desperate behavior, your first order of business is to back off. Take a few deep breaths, detach, and play it cool for a while. Find opportunities to be with friends, go to an event you’ve been interested in, and turn him down for at least one get-together.

The Best Places To Meet Women

Most guys seem to have no idea where to meet women, which is odd considering they are everywhere you go. Depending on the kind of girl you’re looking for, however, certain environments will be more suitable than others. Here’s a list of the best places to meet women and the types you can find there.

The Gym – Although it’s a common place that most people already think of, the gym can be a decent place to find women. Just don’t be one of those guys that stares at them in their spandex all day.

These Are The Three Types Of Girls Men Can’t Stand!

These are the three types of character or behavior of a woman that a man cannot stand....

 3. The Debater.

This is the girl that is never ever wrong. Ask her who is right and who is wrong in the argument? She is. You beat her with proof and examples or even took her to court and beat her through the legal process and still ask her who is right? She is. Girls, this is the side of you or the few of you who refuse to be wrong. This is the girl who has it her way or the highway. Definitely not the kind of girl ANY guy wants to consider putting a ring on.

[Advice Needed] How Do I Stop His Exes From Calling Him?

Dear Tee,
I have been dating a guy for 2 years now. He is faithful and loving. But then, his exes would not stop calling him. I confronted him on the matter and he told me that he has nothing to do with them, and he tries as much as possible to avoid their calls, but they still go ahead to call with private numbers. And sometimes, he had to chat with them. Please, I am confused. What do I do to make these girls stop calling him?


Hello BB,
I understand that you do not want your man’s ex to chat with him, but then I think you should just trust your man. You said it already that those girls use private numbers to call him and all that and that he avoids picking their calls, but these girls would not just let him be. Please, try to understand your man; he is not the one making the moves towards these ladies. So, instead of nagging and pushing your man away, I think you should love and trust him the more. You cannot stop these girls from calling him, but you can learn to trust your man.
All the best.
Tee.

A Place In Lagos State Where The Use Of Condom Is Strange..

The use of condoms is strange to men in Makoko, a densely populated slum town in Lagos where majority live in wooden shacks built on water. Like Huese, many Egun people in Makoko, as well as Oko-Agbon and Ago-Egun communities in Yaba Local Council Development Area, Lagos, do not like using condóms due to their long held traditional belief in the old practice of coitus interruptus, also known as the withdrawal or pull-out method during séxual intercourse.

Many of the men who spoke to our correspondent in the community expressed their aversion to the use of condoms during séxual intercourse and were insistent that their women enjoyed it that way.

Twenty-five-year-old Bernadette Sato, who has two children, agreed. She does not like condóm. “We don’t like using condóm. But if we don’t want to get pregnant, we know how to do it by ourselves; it pays us more that way, because we don’t like using condóm. I was told in a hospital in Cotonou, Benin Republic, where I gave birth to my first child, that people who don’t want to get pregnant can use condóm. Sometimes, I use a family planning drug before and after séx with my husband to prevent pregnancy,” she said, noting that many of her friends also don’t like condóms, while some claimed it could bring about disease. “I don’t know the type of disease, but I just don’t like condóm during séx,” she added.

However, she pointed out that the withdrawal method may not necessarily be effective in preventing pregnancies and STDs. “This is because the pre-ejaculation fluid from a man’s man-hood may contain sperm, which means that the man may still have enough sperm to make a woman pregnant,” she said, noting that the women were less conservative about family planning than the men.

With an increasing population, especially of women and children, poverty, poor living conditions, lack of education and basic infrastructure and services, the increasing rate of unprotected séx in Makoko communities is a worrying trend, especially as the general dislike for cóndoms hasn’t changed much with the younger generation.

“They live in a kind of cocoon. For them, it’s a way of life. The men go for fishing; the women go to the market and come back. From what I have observed, there are no special values being handed over. So, it goes on like a cycle. The young boys grow up to impregnate their women and it just goes on and on”.

Steps On How To Approach Your Man When You Feel He's Cheating On You.

Since the beginning of time men have been known to cheat on their women but Should you remain in the relationship or go is what you may be wondering. Although when a man cheats on you, it does not necessarily mean the relationship is over or that your man is not worth redeeming, No! What you do need to do is to confront him to avoid putting yourself in a situation where you cause yourself more pain and suffering in the future. But the question is, when is the right time to confront him? This is the first basic thing to note:

1. When both of you are excited or in a romantic mood, you pop the big question "baby can you cheat on me" or "are you cheating on me"? The reply from the first question you asked will determine how to ask the next question like "cos i noticed you've been receiving some strange calls lately". Try not to use a harsh or aggressive tone when you are presenting your words before him. After all said and done give him a benefit of doubt with a convincing tone that you believe him. This i can tell you will strengthen the relationship.

5 Singing Tips to Help You Sound Better Instantly: By Nicola Milan

Singing tip #1

Open your mouth. Yes! That's right, it's so obvious that it's often overlooked but opening your mouth a little more when you sing makes a huge difference to your overall sound.

So many singers have what I call 'lazy mouth syndrome' and it is one of the major causes of mumbling and muffled sound. Think of your body as you would think of an instrument like a saxophone or a trumpet. Both of these instruments open up to a really wide, round exit for the sound to come out of. The same applies to you; your mouth is the opening where your sound comes out, so don't block it off.

Think you're opening your mouth enough? You'd be surprised. Go and stand in front of a mirror next time you're singing one of your favourite songs and have a look at how wide your mouth is. What you feel to be really super and ridiculously wide, actually doesn't look that bad.

Go try it out! It improves your sound immediately.

Singing tip #2

Sing with confidence. The difference between sounding average and sounding great can be as simple as whether you are singing out confidently or not. Confident singing means you are projecting your voice out and holding your notes with lots of breath support.

These two actions make the world of difference to your sound, plus it tells your audience that yes, you know the notes and you're not afraid to sing them. Sing like you would at home when you know there is no one listening and better still, give yourself permission to sing out and you'll be sounding better in no time.

Singing tip #3

Look confident. OK, so this is an extension to singing tip #2 but just looking confident makes the audience believe that you sound better. It's a really interesting psychological phenomenon but it works.

Experts in performing know that how you look on stage actually effects how you sound and so the easiest way to improve your singing is just to act confident and look like you belong up there on that stage.

And if you're shaking in your Jimmy Choos? Just fake it baby!

Singing tip #4

Steer clear of the ice-cream. Oh no! But we love ice-cream!

Relax, it's only while you're singing. Ice-cream and any milk based product produces an excess of phlegm and phlegm is a singer's worst enemy. It gets stuck at the back of your throat and you need to clear it while you are singing.

Even worse, it can sometimes sneak up on you and cause your voice to make a cracking sound as the phlegm gets pushed aside by air. It's not pretty, so just leave the hot chocolate for when you're out with the girls and reach for the peppermint tea instead.

Singing tip #5

Warm up before you sing. I use a lot of references to sport when I'm explaining singing techniques because as a singer, you really are an athlete... of the small muscle groups! In a singer's case, this means the muscles around your voice box.

If you go out for a run and you haven't warmed up, quite often it takes a little more to get going and you can increase your chances of injury. It's the same thing for singing. It usually takes me a good ten to fifteen minutes to warm up completely and I can feel my voice improving over that time.

Once I'm warm, I can reach higher notes and make them sound better. The same will happen to you, so give yourself a little bit of time to do a few simple warm up exercises before you hit the stage.
