Article not written by me.
I like to feel like the twenty something
year old has a lot of time to make some critical decisions before
he/she hits the thirties. Considering the fact that i'm also in my mid 20's, I think this is quite inspiring. When you are in your early twenties, you
realize that you have less to worry about, which presents a lot of time
that can be used to harness some strengths that will be beneficial in
the future. Experts will tell you it is the period when you can adopt
some habits and stick to them. It is actually important to use this
formative period to build life long habits that you may not be able to
force down later. You know what they say? Practice makes perfect. Now is
the better time to practice. Continue...

A baby girl born on March 26th with a facial deformity is being
worshiped in India like a god. Villagers near Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh in
India, have flocked to see the 'divine' girl with the deformity
resembling an elephant's trunk in
the belief she is an incarnation of the elephant-headed god Ganesha.
According to Asian News, doctors told the villagers the girl's condition may well be a genetic mutation. The newborn's aunt, named as Rajani, told the news agency: "My sister-in-law gave birth to a girl and her face looks exactly like Lord Ganesha. Everybody is saying she is an incarnation of the god. This is why whoever hears about her is coming here to get a glimpse of the baby and are making whatever offerings possible."
Asian News reports that doctors said they will examine the girl to find out the extent of her condition and whether they need to operate. Doctors said the condition could be a genetic mutation triggered by malnutrition and increased pollution.

not intended to cause them any embarrassment.
To Nigerians generally, I regret my actions as even an elder in the church, and a leader, the young men expected to see a lot from me and I believe that if there was any disappointment they got from me I apologize to Nigerians and to the youths of this country.”
