Sex with more than 20 women 'reduces risk of prostate cancer'

Wow, is this good news or what!! Base on current studies it has been reveal that Researchers at the University of Montreal and INRS-Institut Armand-Frappier found that men who had slept with more than 20 women during their lifetime were 28 per cent less likely to develop the disease.




They were also 19 per cent less likely to develop an aggressive type of cancer, compared to those who had had only one female sexual partner.

However, the same did not apply to gay men, according to the Canadian scientists. They found that having more than 20 male partners doubled the risk of prostate cancer and made an aggressive cancer five times more likely. Sleeping with one male partner did not affect the risk.

Meanwhile, men who were virgins were almost twice as likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer as those who were sexually experienced.

The findings are from the Prostate Cancer & Environment Study in which 3,208 men answered questions about their lifestyle and sex lives.

Of these men, 1,590 were diagnosed with prostate cancer between September 2005 and August 2009, while 1,618 men were part of the control group.

Overall, men with prostate cancer were twice as likely as others to have a relative with cancer, but the study also found a possible link with their number of sexual partners.

Lead researcher Professor Marie-Elise Parent, from the University of Montreal, said: "It is possible that having many female sexual partners results in a higher frequency of ejaculations, whose protective effect against prostate cancer has been previously observed in cohort studies."

Devon conger eel narrowly missed the British record.

A massive eel caught by fishermen off the coast of Devon narrowly missed the British record.
The conger eel, which is about 7ft (2.1m) long, was accidentally caught in the nets of the trawler Hope.  

  Eel

As it was dead when it was hauled in, the fishermen brought the creature back to Plymouth where it sold for £40. Plymouth Fisheries said it was 131lb (59kg), just under the UK line-caught record of 133lb 4oz (60kg).

Manager Pete Bromley, manager of Plymouth fisheries, said: "It just happens to be a very unlucky big fish."

The eel was brought in to the fish market on Wednesday where it was caught on camera appearing to be about 20ft (6m) long and dwarfing the fishermen behind it.

But Mr Bromley said the photos were deceptive and the fish was actually about 7ft (2.1m) long.

"It was certainly very large and very unusual for our market," he said.

"Conger normally live in deep water wrecks, so it is unusual to catch them on open ground.

True Love Always Serves

Hebrews 6:10
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love….


Beloved, rendering the labour of love is a debt every child of God owes Him. That he did not allow you to die in your sins should make you serve him out of a heart filled with love and gratitude. 
Paul was commending the Thessalonians church in I Thessalonians 1:3 “Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ…. “ In other words, they served and worked for God not just because of the love they had for God. They did not mind the inconveniences they had to go through in working for God, They loved God. Complaining and murmuring while serving God will rob you of your reward from God.

See and Become

Genesis 13:15
For all the land thou seest, to thee will it, and to thy seed for ever.





Beloved, there is a connection between what you see and what you become. How far you see determines how far you will go. Your ability to see compels divine manifestation. Today’s text says, “all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it”, until you see you cannot receive from God.

Child of God, for you to enjoy the new things God has for you; you must engage the key of vision. This means to see beyond the natural into the supernatural. See beyond mere existence into the plan and purpose God has destined for you, look beyond the surface and discover the potentials that are hidden inside and around you.

David Cameron’s Conservatives win in surprise UK election

The Conservative Party swept to power on Friday in Britain’s Parliamentary elections, winning an unexpected and resounding victory that returns Prime Minister David Cameron to 10 Downing Street in a stronger position than before.

Cameron’s office said he would go to Buckingham Palace, where he is expected to tell Queen Elizabeth II that he has enough support to form a government.

That brings the election to a much-quicker-than-expected conclusion. Polls ahead of Election Day showed Conservatives locked in a tight race with the opposition Labour Party, raising the possibility of days or weeks of negotiations to form a government.

Labour took a beating, mostly from energized Scottish nationalists who pulled off a landslide in Scotland.

With Cameron’s Conservatives winning a working majority in the 650-seat House of Commons, the election result looked to be far better for him than even his own party had foreseen. With 639 constituencies counted, the Conservatives had 324 seats to Labour’s 229.

The actor was on Wednesday found guilty at a session’s court of culpable homicide and other charges for driving his vehicle into a group of homeless men sleeping rough in suburban Mumbai in 2002.

But on Friday, lawyers for Khan argued to Mumbai’s High Court that their client’s conviction should be overturned. The court agreed to suspend the sentence until an appeal is heard, according to Indian television networks NDTV and CNN-IBN.

The decision means the actor’s jail sentence does not take effect, the reports said.

Eight-year-old smuggled to Spain in suitcase:

Picture: dailymail

A 19-year-old woman took the case through a pedestrian crossing from Morocco into the small Spanish-governed territory of Ceuta on Thursday, a spokesman for the Civil Guard police force said.

“When they put the suitcase through the scanner, the operator noticed something strange, which seemed to be a person inside the case,” he told AFP.

“When it was opened they found a minor, in a terrible state.”

The boy said he was eight years old and from Ivory Coast, according to the spokesman.

The Civil Guard arrested the woman, who was due to go before a judge.

They also arrested the boy’s father when he tried to cross the border a few hours later. The father is Ivorian and lives in Spain’s Canary Islands.

Thousands of migrants each year risk their lives trying to enter Ceuta and another Spanish territory bordering Morocco, Melilla, in search of a better life in Europe.
