Family / Meet The Former Prostitute Who Now Counsels Couples And Using Witchcraft by biggie12(m): 2:50pm On Sep 04, 2017
Shaney Marie was a former prostitute

A former stripper turned professional 's*x witch' makes is now making a living coaching couples and singletons on pagan eroticism including casting spells to boost orgasms, Dailymail has reported.

The woman identified as Shaney Marie, 31, delved into the world of witchcraft after working as an exotic dancer and deciding her male clients needed deeper sexual connections. Marie who was born in New Zealand teaches magic sexuality across Australia and will soon take her booming business abroad – albeit by aeroplane, not broomstick.

Shaney, who identifies as both pansexual, which means not being limited by gender, and eco-sexual, which means finding nature and the earth sexual, said: 'S*x witchery involves using ancient pagan ways of being to unlock greater pleasure pathways.
'When I was a stripper, I noticed most men were coming to me in search of deeper connections and had nowhere else to turn to. I looked back to ancient times. There were once temples where men would seek counsel and healing from erotic dancers. This has been distorted.

'Modern strip clubs are a power play. Men objectify women, but women pocket the cash. It is no longer a place of love, so I decided to return to these roots and bring on an awakening.
'Phenomena like porn have also desensitised us. Spirituality is the best way this helps to recondition ourselves with erotic subtleties.'



For Shaney, arousal can come from things as subtle as a gust of wind, which is a feature of eco-sexality – the seeking of sexual gratification in nature.

Her clients are taught rituals like praying at love-altars, erotic dance workshops and using crystals and s*x toys to heighten sexual climaxes. She also casts spells – known as s*x magic – to deepen feelings of sexual pleasure.

Shaney, who now lives in Melbourne, said : 'I'm in a heterosexual relationship but I'm open to explore life so I could be described as pansexual. I'm also eco-sexual, which is about being turned on by the elements.
'It can mean surrendering to pleasure such as the winds blowing on your skin. The elements are important to witches and shamans alike.

'Spell crafting can involve boosting pleasure. It is is one of the most powerful forces you can experience. It's like rocket fuel for manifestation.'

Shaney's services also extend into face-to-face sexual coaching and even Skype consultations - a modern twist on ancient traditions. She said her mostly-male clientele – who span the ages of 20 to 70 – are in the hundreds, but that number is rising as people trade religion for spirituality.

Shaney said: 'Australia has a big movement, especially in Melbourne and Byron Bay, of spiritual sexuality. More and people are starting to dip their toes in it.


'There is a history of misinformation about witchcraft and paganism, but people are curious and spirituality is slowly replacing religion.'
Shaney said beyond the bedroom, her services can offer therapeutic qualities to victims of depression and trauma.

She added: 'Some people can definitely use spiritual pathways to cure trauma. But it must be done tenderly. We are ultimately sensitive and gentle beings.
'One of my clients was suffering from severe depression. He said after six sessions, he felt more growth than he got from years of psychiatric therapy.'

Shaney is this month taking her s*x witch services across Amsterdam, London, Berlin and Ireland for a European tour.

Celebrities / American Rapper Lil Wayne Found Unconscious In Hotel Room by biggie12(m): 1:44pm On Sep 04, 2017
Lil Wayne

Rap star Lil Wayne was rushed to hospital yesterday after he reportedly suffered a seizure and was found unconscious in his Chicago hotel room.

The 34-year-old Grammy-winning star suffered a second seizure at the hospital, TMZ reported, and his representative confirmed to the site that he had suffered multiple seizures.

The incident comes more than a year after the rap star, whose Grammy wins include the best rap album award in 2008 for “Tha Carter III,” was treated after suffering what his representatives called two minor seizures.

Four years ago Lil Wayne, whose given name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr, spent several days at a Los Angeles hospital, after which he told radio station Power 106 he was epileptic and prone to seizures.

Lil Wayne had been set to perform in Las Vegas late on Sunday night. The New Orleans-born rapper began his professional career aged nine, when he became the youngest artist to be signed by Cash Money Records.

Politics / Biafra: We Shall Stop At Nothing To Resist Nnamdi Kanu’s Arrest – Asari Dokubo by biggie12(m): 9:35am On Sep 04, 2017
Ex-Niger Delta warlord, Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, has revealed how the move by the Nigerian Government to rearrest leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, will be resisted.

Asari, the leader of the Niger Delta Peoples Salvation Force, NDPSF, spoke in a video where he also expressed doubt that it was President Muhammadu Buhari that returned from London.

Addressing “fellow Biafrans”, Asari said the same stone the biblical David used to crush Goliath is still available for Biafra.

“Biafrans, today we are going to look at a very dark cloud trying to envelop us. And that cloud is the re-arrest of Nnamdi Kanu.

“After the return of the thing they said is Muhammadu Buhari, which I doubt very much, the cabal around that thing they brought home from London needed to feed that thing with blood. The blood of Biafrans, you and I.

“How can our blood flow? The only way our blood can flow unstoppably is the rearrest or the attempt to rearrest Nnamdi Kanu.

“They don’t give a damn, killing us is fun. Its a game; a religion to them but killing their own people pinches them a little. Because the people who issued death sentence on us that after October 1 if any of us are found on their land will be killed. They used different medium: they TV, radio, internet to circulate that after Oct. 1 any one of us seen in their land should be killed. And the DSS said those who issued death sentence on us were quoted out of context.

“Minister of Internal affairs said attempting to arrest them will cause crisis. But Nnamdi Kanu is arguably the greatest crowd puller of this part of the world, nobody can rival him not even Buhari that when they brought him back from London had to go and beg people, paid them N2000 to come out and show their support.

“The world has suddenly lost it vision to see. The world has suddenly lost its ear to hear how Biafrans have been killed.

“May be Nnamdi Kanu’s time is the fullness of time, God almighty has given so much grace to this Egyptians and they have refused to heed. They have hardened their minds and this Pharaoh, moreso, this thing they brought from London, who wants blood to keep him alive said he’ll kill all our people.

“May be its really the fullness of time, and the stone with which David killed Goliath God will make it available for us to fight our battle.”

Sports / Messi Vs Ronaldo: A Philosophical View by biggie12(m): 10:28pm On Sep 03, 2017
There is one thing apiece that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi sympathizers are finding it difficult to contend with. There is also one other thing that the two of them cannot settle on. These are among the many reasons why the debate between who is the best player between them keeps getting controversial by the day.

Cristiano Ronaldo fans cannot believe that despite his out of the world, mind blowing performances over the last 10 years, there was still someone considered by many (other than those in their category) to be better than him and perhaps rightly so. Lionel Messi fans cannot believe that his super human and breath taking performances over the last 10 years, has not given him the absolute monopoly of global attention. That someone else is sharing the accolades and honours with him and apparently even threatening to have a larger share of them is what they can’t simply fathoms.There is one thing apiece that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi sympathizers are finding it difficult to contend with. There is also one other thing that the two of them cannot settle on. These are among the many reasons why the debate between who is the best player between them keeps getting controversial by the day.

The other thing that both Messi and Ronaldo followers won’t understand is that, rating one above the other doesn’t take anything away from the other’s greatness. Neither of them needs to be superior or inferior to any other player for him to cement a unique place for himself in the history of football. One more contentious issue is that neither Messi nor Ronaldo may be objectively considered as the greatest player of all time; although that debate would be better fruitful when they retire.

The modern football world’s obsession with Ronaldo and Messi seems to have affected many followers’ sense of memory and history. It may be possible that more than 70% of present day football followers were not born or old enough to follow football before 1990. For this category, who is the majority, no any other player in history was as good as Ronaldo and Messi, let alone surpasses them. Those who actually know what football was in the 1950s to 1980s may or may not be up to 10% and their voices are not often heard these days. Some 20% may not be that old, but they have enough knowledge of history, the problem is that we don’t often listen to them when they speak.

Except some miracle is going to happen in the remaining few years of Messi-Ronaldo careers, Pele will still remain the greatest football player of all time and only core Messi-Ronaldo fanatics and some few others will dispute that. Whatever scale one is going to use, it would be nearly impossible not to rate Pele above anyone else. From skills to statistics down to achievements, it’s all there. His over 750 official goals in just about 800 matches and his three world cup (the greatest football competition) among others will testify to that.

What of Maradona, who is viewed by many to have single-handedly won the 1986 World Cup? Well, Pele-Messi-Ronaldo individual and team achievements as well as their consistency over a long period plus their crazy statistics are too irresistible to place him above any of them; this is debatable though. His on and off the pitch controversies, and injuries also tend to work against him when it comes to discourses like this.

That this piece is intended to be more hypothetical than analytical means emphasis will not be laid on dishing out statistics of these players which it is assumed the reader is fairly conversant with. That it is intended to be as short as possible also means that long arguments will not be employed.

The player who is very closely behind Pele among the all-time greats would arguably be Lionel Messi. There is probably no objective person who would watch Messi for a year and comfortably rate any other person other than Pele equal or above him. Does that make Cristiano Ronaldo and some of the best players

Religion / Touch My Wife, I’ll Kill You – Pastor Adeboye by biggie12(m): 10:15pm On Sep 03, 2017
By Anthony Ogbonna

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has said that he would kill anybody who touches his wife, Pastor (Mrs) Foluke Adeboye.

He said, although he could not do anything to anybody who slaps, criticizes or lies against him, but to do such against his wife, he would kill the person.

The man of God however enjoined couples to be ready to lay down their lives for their partner if they truly loved them.


Pastor Adeboye and his wife
Pastor Adeboye stated this during a Sunday service while delivering a message titled “Activating Your Destiny” at the National Headquarters of RCCG, Throne of Grace Parish, Ebutte Meta, Lagos.

Daddy G. O, as he is fondly called, urged those seeking life partners to marry for love because, such love endures for long.

He said despite the fact that he has been married to his wife for 50 years now, that he is still on his honeymoon.

He also urged ladies to marry a pastor if they wanted an influential man.

Pastor Adeboye however added that he would not do the killing with knife or gun but will ask his Daddy above and the person will sleep and not wake up again.

According to him, “Be ready to lay down your life for your partner if you’re truly in love. My wife doesn’t like me saying this:

“You can slap me; you can lie against me, you can criticise me, it doesn’t bother me, but touch my wife, I’ll kill you!

“I want the world to hear. They’ll say if I killed, they’ll arrest me, jail me, that is if I killed with cutlass or gun.

“If you tamper with my wife, I will talk to my Daddy and you’ll sleep and will not wake.”



“If you want to marry a person who’s influential, marry a pastor. If he does not fall into sin, he’ll remain a pastor forever.”

“Marry for love. It’ll endure. I’ve been married for 50 years and still on honeymoon. I was the poorest among those lurking around the girl I married.”

“One was a lawyer who had a car; I had nothing. But I told the girl that if you marry me, whatever I am, wherever I ever become, will be yours”.

“I was not a Christian, but i was an incurable optimist. We struggled over ‘pomo’ as I usually hear me say, but today if we want to eat a cow now, God will provide.

“After our wedding in September 8, 1967, we faced challenges. The baby came 1968. It was tough. We were happy because we were in love.

“I had no car, no house, a marriage into a rented room and a parlour. We have stories to tell. If you marry for love, the reason it will last is because God is love.”

“You must continue to tend the fire, meaning: no matter how little, you must constantly give gifts to your partner. If it’s given in love, it’ll be appreciated.

“When two people are in love, they exchange gifts. Always open your mouth to say to your partner “I love you.”

Sports / What Ibrahimovic’s Return Means For Me – Lukaku by biggie12(m): 11:35pm On Sep 02, 2017
Romelu Lukaku has insisted he is not afraid of competing with Zlatan Ibrahimovic at Manchester United.

The 24-year-old striker continued his blistering start to the new season on Thursday, with a hat-trick for Belgium in a 2018 World Cup qualifier against Gibraltar.

But Lukaku, with three Premier League goals already, will see Ibrahimovic back at Old Trafford later this season after his serious knee injury.

Ibrahimovic was the main man for the Red Devils last season, scoring 28 goals as they won three trophies and returned to the Champions League, but Lukaku said: “I don’t fear the competition as a striker — or Zlatan.

“He will bring many qualities to the team, and help us in our goal of winning the title.

“I said to Zlatan that I hoped he would be back at Man United. We need his personality. And I knew for a while he would sign a new contract.

“We know there are big rivals for the title – City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham. But things are going really well for me at United.

“The pre-season was good and it helped knowing a lot of the players before arriving.”

Crime / Billionaire Kidnapper: Evans Reveals Covenant He Has Made With God by biggie12(m): 11:19pm On Sep 02, 2017
Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, the billionaire kidnapper popularly known as Evans, has claimed that he has made a covenant with God.

Evans who is facing 52 criminal counts ranging from kidnapping to murder, says he promised God he would not lie in court.

The kidnapper who pleaded guilty to some charges earlier this week, is now a changed man and is hoping he is given a second chance to live right.

“I already have a covenant with God. If police take me to court, I told God that I will not tell lies against the police or victims.

“I promise to tell the court the truth about any crime that I am guilty of. Please, people of Nigeria should forgive me.

“I just believe in God for a miracle.

“I will serve God all my life. I also promised the police that I will help them to fight crime,” Evans said in an interview with The Sun.

Evans told the Sun that he had already become a pastor, and that he never meant to kill anyone in his criminal endeavours.

He said: “The only time that someone died (during his operations) was during the attempted kidnap of the chairman of The Young Shall Grow Motors.

“During that operation, we were attacked and there was exchange of gunshots. They shot at us and my gang members shot back at them. It was in the morning that I heard that one inspector and the driver who drove the Young Shall Grow chairman died.

“It was an unfortunate incident. I have totally regretted everything about crime. It does not pay. I keep telling people to learn from my story. Crime does not pay. Everything I acquired all these years are gone just in a day. I will be an agent of change in prison.”

Sports / Messi To Leave Barcelona As Free Agent Next Year by biggie12(m): 8:46pm On Sep 02, 2017
Lionel Messi will reportedly not renew his Barcelona contract, which means he can leave as a free agent next summer.

Spanish outlet, Onda Cero, claims that the Messi is ready to end his stint at the La Liga club.

The 30-year-old has agreed terms of a new deal, but is yet to put pen to paper, which has left the club and fans worried.

Messi is understood to be disappointed with Barca’s transfer business this summer, which saw Neymar leave for Paris Saint-Germain in a world-record move.

However, on Saturday, Barcelona’s Director of Professional Sports Albert Soler, asked for calm on the situation.

He said: “Soon. When we say soon, it means soon. I want to send this message to those who may be worried.

“Announcement comes after the agreement is signed off by both parties. The only thing missing is this formal act.

“There is no problem, I insist, it will happen soon. It depends on the agendas, from here I want to send a message of tranquillity to the Barcelona members. Please be calm.”

TV/Movies / Nigeria Police TV Channel Takes Off On November With 5,000 Staff — CEO by biggie12(m): 11:22pm On Sep 01, 2017
The proposed Nigeria Police Broadcasting Service will hit the airwaves nationwide beginning from November 28, its Chairman/CEO, Ediri Jerry Wesley has promised.

The TV will begin with a fund-raising ceremony at the International Conference Centre, Abuja.

Speaking in an interview with journalists in Abuja, he commended the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, for working to ensure the realisation of the project.

Mr. Wesley said, “The NPBS will focus on four areas of operations (TV, Radio, Online and Emergency Control Centre). The project which is a Public Private Partnership with the Nigeria Police will help to curb insecurity by prompt respond to emergency situations.”

Unlike most broadcast organisations, the NPBS will not source for commercial adverts for sustainability, rather its survival will depend largely on sponsorship from corporate organisations and well-meaning Nigerians, Mr. Wesley said.

He said personnel for the channel would be trained by professionals from prominent broadcast organisations including the Cable News Network (CNN).

“About 5,000 young Nigerians will be engaged and trained by 50 expatriate (Professionals from CNN, BBC and other foreign media Organisations) for three years,” Mr. Wesley stated.

In order to reach all Nigerians irrespective of their educational background, transmission will also be done in both Pidgin English and other Nigerian Languages, he said.

He said, “The NPBS will focus on four areas of operations (TV, Radio, Online and Emergency Control Centre). The project which is a Public Private Partnership with the Nigeria Police will help to curb insecurity by prompt respond to emergency situations.”

Sports / Barcelona Give Up Coutinho Chase by biggie12(m): 11:13pm On Sep 01, 2017
Barcelona, Spain | AFP | Barcelona have finally abandoned their quest to land Liverpool’s Philippe Coutinho, 25, after having a series of bids for the Brazilian rejected, Spanish media reported on Friday.

The transfer deadline for Spanish clubs doesn’t close until midnight local time (2200GMT) on Friday, 24 hours after the rest of Europe’s major leagues.

However, despite reportedly making an offer of up to 160 million euros ($190 million) for the playmaker, Liverpool have refused to backtrack on their intention not to sell Coutinho.

“Barca will not sign Coutinho,” Barcelona-based sports daily Sport reported in their online edition, citing sources close to the player.

“The club has taken the decision to not insist in the final hours of the market.”

Barcelona have been under huge pressure to reinvest the 222 million euros the club banked from Neymar’s world record transfer to Paris Saint-Germain last month.

The Catalans have splashed 192 million euros on five signings, including 105 million on 20-year-old French winger Ousmane Dembele in a deal that could yet rise to 145 million depending on performance related bonuses.

Coutinho hasn’t played for Liverpool this season after submitting a transfer request with the club citing a back injury.

However, he showed no sign of discomfort as he came off the bench to score as Brazil saw off Ecuador 2-0 in World Cup qualifying on Thursday before appearing to break down in tears during his celebration.

“Unfortunately, instead of being a happy time for him, for his family, it’s a moment of anguish, disappointment and sadness,” Neymar said of his international teammate’s mood.

Liverpool have been steadfast in their intentions not to sell over the past month.

“The club’s definitive stance is that no offers for Philippe will be considered and he will remain a member of Liverpool Football Club when the summer window closes,” said a statement from Liverpool’s FSG ownership group on August 11.

Sports / Kane's Double Saves England Blushes by biggie12(m): 11:01pm On Sep 01, 2017
Harry Kane scored a brace to help Gareth Southgate's lacklustre England to a 4-0 win over minnows Malta in their 2018 World Cup qualifier on Friday.

Kane opened the score early in the second-half but three goals inside the last 10 minutes put a brighter sheen on the result than the performance deserved.

Ryan Bertrand -- with a long range effort barely acknowledged by a far from happy looking Southgate -- Danny Welbeck and Kane at the death secured the points in Malta and keeps them top of Group F by two points from Slovakia.

However, the English -- boasting players whose salaries and transfer fees dwarfed that of their opponents -- will need to put up a far better display at home to the Slovakians on Monday.

Kane, though, said people should realise that Malta had set out to stifle and frustrate England -- it is the first time in three meetings an England side has beaten the Maltese by more than a goal. "Whenever you come away for games like this it is never going to be easy," he told ITV.

"We were trying to break them down, they had 10 men behind the ball. We knew if we just kept moving it wide we would find the space.

"The manager makes his choices (Southgate started with just him up front), he puts the team out he thinks we will win the game and we won 4-0 so we have done the right job tonight."

England -- winning for just the second time in their last six matches and giving Southgate his first away win since he took over -- started brightly and could have been 2-0 up inside the first five minutes.

Raheem Sterling should have done better when found brilliantly by Kane just yards out from the goal but the Manchester City star dallied and allowed England-born goalkeeper Andrew Hogg to come out and gather the ball.

Hogg was very active early on and pulled off a fine reaction save from Kane in the fifth minute the Spurs striker meeting club team-mate Dele Alli's pinpoint cross with his head.

However, from that point on till the second minute of time added on and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's scuffed shot the Malta goalkeeper didn't have another save to make.

The England players' woeful performance saw them exit the pitch at half-time to a cacophony of boos and jeers from their fans.

- relief -

Southgate acted at half-time to remedy the lacklustre performance and took off Sterling sending on Manchester United youngster Marcus Rashford instead.

However, it was the hosts who came up with the first meaningful shot of the half Andre Schembri -- the only player in the Malta squad to play in the top division of a European league for Apollon Limassol in Cyprus -- fashioning out a half-volley that whistled past Hart's far post.

Kane though at last broke the deadlock in the 53rd minute Alli doing superbly to draw two defenders to him then passing to his clubmate who made no mistake -- earning a clap from Southgate more out of relief than joy.

Malta were far from disheartened, Sam Magri -- a former England Youth international with the likes of Sterling and substitute Nathaniel Chalobah but now plying his trade with non league Ebbsfleet -- fired in a decent long range effort that forced Hart to dive to cover it.

Kane showed he was just as dangerous from outside the box firing in a fierce effort on the hour mark that Hogg did well to save.

Bertrand and Welbeck added late goals before Kane sealed his double and his 10th in 20 internationals.

Rashford created it after refusing to follow Kyle Walker's instruction and put the ball out because a Malta player was injured instead teeing up Kane.

Sports / Xavi: Barcelona Did Not Sign Better by biggie12(m): 9:47pm On Sep 01, 2017
Xavi believes Barcelona are no longer following their footballing philosophies and says they have failed to sign better this transfer window.

Barcelona was regarded as a power house of top talents over the years, but has lost a couple of players and the Barcelona legend believes they are replacing players with substandard ones.

The Catalans were rocked by the €222 million sale of Neymar , bringing in Dembele and Paulinho and Xavi says the club must work on finding better players and look to better La Masia.

The World Cup winner told Marca: “Barca still play really good football but they could have signed better.

“They’ve fallen asleep because five or six years ago they had the best players in the world for Barca’s system. Now, for that system, they have five or six players: [Andres] Iniesta, [Jordi] Alba, [Lionel] Messi, [Gerard] Pique, Luis Suarez, [Sergio] Busquets.

“But Barca should have 11 for that system. Before, you wouldn’t see anyone play and say: ‘He’d be good at Barca.’ That’s because they were already there. They have signed players that don’t fit that system.

“The academy has to be strengthened. If there are doubts, look at what you have in-house. In Barca’s best era, at least 60 percent of the players came from the academy.”

Car Talk / Electric Cars To Be Introduced Into Nigerian Market Next Year...here's The Detai by biggie12(m): 8:30pm On Sep 01, 2017
Electric Cars to Be Introduced Into Nigerian Market Next Year...Here's the Details You Need to Know


Electric car

Nigus Enfinity, an indigenous firm, says it will introduce electric vehicles into the Nigerian automobile market in 2018 and that its local assembly plant for electric vehicles will be ready in 2020.

Malik Ado-Ibrahim, chairman of the company, made this known to journalists in an interactive session which held in Abuja on Thursday.

Ado-Ibrahim said several countries across the world have set targets for the ban of petrol-fuelled vehicles with India targeting 2030, and the United Kingdom, 2040.

He said Nigeria and Africa need to look inward to be at the fore of the automotive revolution or risk becoming waste bin for banned vehicles from other countries.

Ado-Ibrahim, who was the first African to lead the Formula 1 Team global race car competition in 1999, said his firm is already building a 100 megawatts (mw) solar power plant in Katsina and another in Adamawa state.

According to him, the company has also partnered with Build Your Dreams, a Chinese firm, to import electric vehicles at affordable costs from 2018.
“We are also working with BYD to get a local brand and start an electric vehicle assembly plant for Nigeria from 2020. Gradually we will move to an EV with the African DNA starting in Nigeria,” he said.
