Harry Potter, Game of Thrones e.tc Can Damage a Child's Brain

A United Kingdom headmaster, Gaeme  Whiting has publicly said that movies like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Hunger games and other epic adventure movies are dangerous to a child's brain.

Whiting said
“Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, The Hunger Games, and Terry Pratchett, to mention only a few of the modern world’s ‘must-haves… can be bought without a special licence, and can damage the sensitive subconscious brains of young children, many of whom may be added to the current statistics of mentally ill young children,” Whiting wrote in a blog post on the Acorn School website where he is a headmaster.

He based his opinion on the fact that these books contain deeply insensitive and addictive material which he claimed could encourage difficult behaviour in children.

He dismissed them as dark, demonic literature, “sprinkled with ideas of magic, of control and of ghostly and frightening stories.”

However, he said that the adult mind can process the materials displayed that is displayed.

Six Traits Companies Look for When Hiring

These Secrets no doubts can help anybody make it in wall street, or

anywhere you find yourself.

Private equity billionaire David Rubenstein of The Carlyle Group (CB) licks SIsix traits he looks for when hiring young people.

“As I hire young people, I always look for certain characteristics. I try to have them myself to some extent, maybe I don’t,” he said during his opening remarks at the SALT Conference in Las Vegas on Wednesday.

These are the characteristics Rubenstein says make a success in the financial services world:

1. Intelligent: “Reasonable intelligence. Not genius. If you’re too smart, apparently it can backfire. Reasonable intelligence.”
2. Hard-working: “Good work quotient, but not obsessive compulsive. But a pretty good work quotient.”
3. Focused: “Ability to focus. Focus and narrow your expertise in one area where you can actually know something better than anyone else.”
4. Leader: “Exert you know how to be a leader. You can be a leader by communicating with other people three ways— One, by example. George Washington at Valley Forge communicated that he was prepared to stay with his troops no matter what. Leading by example. Leading by communicating by words—learning how to speak the English language in a way that communicates some kind of authority and leadership. And learning how to write. Very few people that I hire today really are that talented at writing. I encourage them to learn how to write better or to orally communicate much better.”
5. Ethical: “Most importantly, I look for people who have ethical standards that are very high.
6. Knows themselves: “I’m also looking for people that know what they want to do with their money and know why they want to achieve success in the financial services world.”

He noted that it’s been difficult in the last year or so, but those characteristics he listed are the kinds that he thinks will produce success.

Drug Trafficking 2 Nigerians and 8 Others to be Executed

Two Nigerians are among 10 foreigners whose execution stakes are being prepared in Indonesia for being involved in drug trafficking.

A media report on Wednesday said in Jakarta that 10 foreigners, including two Nigerians, were among 15 convicts on death row in Indonesia scheduled to be put to death.

Liliek Darmanto, Central Java Police Spokesman, confirmed that authorities were preparing a new round of executions.

He said one Pakistani, two Nigerians, two Senegalese, one Zimbabwean and four Chinese nationals, were among those to be executed.

“There are five Indonesians, one woman and four men and there are 10 foreign citizens.

Darmanto said among other foreigners on death row for drug trafficking were Mary-Jane Veloso from the Philippines, Lindsay Sandiford from Britain and Frenchman Serge Atlaoui, but did not clear if they were among those scheduled to be put to death.

He said no date for the execution had been set, but that 150 police shooters had been appointed to carry out the task.

“They have practiced for days, so that the execution can be conducted any time.

Under Indonesian law, each convict would face a squad of 10 shooters.

Last year Indonesia executed 14 convicts, all but two of them foreigners, in a move that drew international condemnation.

At least 121 people are currently on death row in Indonesia, including 35 foreigners, mostly convicted of drug-related crimes, according to the Justice Ministry.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo, who took office in 2014, has taken a tough stance against drug trafficking, saying that the country was facing a drug emergency.

" Buhari is not God" Niger Delta Militants

the Niger Delta Avengers has made it open to all that pipeline vandalism and reck of nation properties will continues no matter who the president think he is. In a statement released the NDA replied buhari that " he is not God 

The group, in a statement yesterday by its spokesman, Mark Anthony, said the entire Nigerian Army was incapable of protecting all pipelines in the Niger Delta.

Anthony said that as at the time they surrendered their weapons during the reign of President Goodluck Jonathan, they made it clear to the world that bombing of pipelines was not over.

While demanding the sack of Paul Boroh, Coordinator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, for trying to muscle militants with threat, Anthony stated: “We have not condemned the current bombing because when we surrendered, we told the world that bombing of pipelines was not over yet.”

“Those bombing pipelines in Delta State should not behave like cowards if they are truly fighting the interest of Niger Delta. They should be bold enough to come out. When we were bombing, our leader General John Togo did not hide his face. We dealt with the Nigerian Army, and we were not hiding.”

According to the NDLF, “They should not hide their identity. Buhari is not God and they should not be scared of him. JTF should not attack and arrest innocent people in Ijaw communities; they should go for the real saboteurs.

“We told former President Goodluck Jonathan that Nigerian Army couldn’t protect pipelines in the creek. The current Amnesty Chairman Paul Boroh does not know the boys in Niger Delta. He is not in touch with Niger Delta major ex-agitators. Buhari should sack him immediately and appoint another chairman like Kingsley Kuku, who knows the boys in the creek. This will help the current oil war,” the NDLF spokesman man stated.

It would be recalled that the NDLF’s former leader John Togo, who claimed that their main goal is to secede from Nigeria and gain independence from Nigeria, was believed killed on July 19, 2011 in an air strike near Warri, Delta State.

With the death of Togo the NDLF seemed weak and many members joined the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta. Although many members left around 2,500 remained in the NDLF. For the next two years they attacked oil installations on and off.
