Food / 5 Best Recommended Pressure Cookers To Buy by microsofttutor(m): 11:11pm On May 23, 2018
These days, you do not require a stove to cook a tasty meal. With the improvement in technology, you can now cook your meals using pressure by the help of a pressure cooker or other appliances like air fryer. A pressure has a tight-fitting lid allows steam to build up under pressure, pushing heat into the food, thus reducing the cooking time. In this way, more of the food’s nutrition are preserved and a lesser amount of energy is use up. For the best results, you need to leave enough space for the steam to build into pressure, so only fill the pan halfway, and include enough liquid. Most of the electric pressure cookers automatically detect and regulate the pressure needed to cook a particular meal. Deciding on the best pressure to buy for your home seems to be a very difficult task because you are faced with different brands of pressure cookers with similar features and price range. In this article, I will reveal to you the tips to help you choose the best pressure cooker for your home. I will also give a concise review of the 5 most efficient and recommended pressure cooker with their prices and the trusted online stores where you can buy them with guarantee.

How To Choose The Best Pressure Cooker For Your Home
Here are some of the tips to help you locate the best pressure cooker for your home, some functions to check for, etc.

How Much You Should Budget: The amount to budget for a pressure cooker depends on your fashion taste, quality and the generation of pressure cooker you wish to buy. But you need to be very careful when budgeting because quality is not always proportional to price, although it is to an extent. You should get an average pressure cooker around $60 to $120 online.

The Capacity And Size You Need: This depends on the size of your family, in terms of the number of people you are cooking for and also the quantity of food you cook at a time. If you are cooking for just two people, then you need a pressure cooker with medium capacity, but if you have a larger family, then you will go for one with a higher capacity Also you need to consider spacious your kitchen is and the space allocated for the cooking appliances.

Features You Should Check For: Check for features that will make it easier for you to use and maintain like if the parts of the pressure cooker is dish washer-safe for easier cleaning. Also, look for a high wattage, different heat settings or programs, the option of a quick pressure release and an auto temperature control to prevent food burning, etc. I always prefer and recommend electric pressure cookers.

A good air fryer would help you cook healthy, tasty food and at the same time, avoiding that deep oil frying method. An air fryer requires little or no oil and uses hot air to cook your food while still retaining the taste of a fried food.

Choosing the best air fryer in the market could sometimes be a bit confusing because you would different brands of air fryer with similar features and prices. But there are some key features to check before you can conclude that a particular brand or model of air fryer is the best or most suiting, although these points may vary a little depending on your taste.

How To Select The Best Air Fryer In the Market
Here are some of the tips that can help you choose the best Air Fryer online and some of the things you should check in an air fryer before you conclude that it is the best:

How Much You Should Budget: Depending on the amount you have in your pocket. But a decent air fryer of the price range between $60 to $120 should serve you well, although price is not directly proportional to quality, but to an extent, it is.
Check If It Has All The Standard Functions And Some Safety Features: The main functions of an air fryer is to fry food by convectional means (i.e. with hot air). There are some other functions you should check like: If the removable parts can be washed with a dishwasher, if the load tray can be pulled out, etc.
Most air fryers on the market today come with a host of safety features like a cool touch handle, a safety button on the handle to prevent the basket from falling when you take your food out, and an automatic shut off ability when the timer expires. They are also designed to keep smoke from building up as well as protect the internal components from getting dirty or damaged. So check for these features before you buy one.

Size Of Food It Can Fry At Once And Its Capacity: This becomes a factor to consider depending on the size of the group the air fryer will serve. If it just you and your wife or girl friend, then you can go for a medium size air fryer. But if it is for a larger family, it then means you will have to go for a larger one. But always bear in mind that a larger air fryer will take up more space on your counter top, so you need to consider how often you are going to use the appliance and it’s importance in your kitchen.

Pre-Set Cooking Programs Enabled: Almost all digital air fryers come with pre-set cooking programs which enable you to automatically set the time and temperature with the push of a button for a number of common food items. In contrast, most analogue air fryers take a more traditional approach on this concept by having the settings printed on the lid or body.

Art, Graphics & Video / How Toprepare & Deliver An Engaging & Effective Presentation by microsofttutor(m): 2:01pm On May 21, 2018
How bad would you feel if you notice that almost all your audience doze off few minutes after you started your presentation? I know you have had such experience. Everyone has had the experience of sitting through a bad presentation or ineffective speech delivery. Your audience doze off because the lights of your presentation went down. May be the audience is faced with slides filled with text, the speaker begins by reading each slide, and the room fills with the sounds of snoring. I have some tips to help you present an engaging and interactive presentation and how to design interactive and engaging presentation slides.

Here are some of the sub topics in this tutorial article:
How To Structure Your Presentation Slides
How To Prepare Aesthetically Pleasing Slides
How To Make Your Presentation Memorable
How to Overcome Tension While Presenting On Stage
Ways To Turn a Boring Topic Into An Engaging Presentation

How To Structure Your Presentation Slides
1. Always Design An Appealing Cover Slide
Never overlook the cover of your presentation slide because it plays an important role in setting the tone and style for your whole presentation. Always use a captivating graphic on your cover slide to catch your audience’s attention.

2. Always Use A Maximum Of Ten Slides
A maximum of 10 slides should be given in 20 minutes, and the size of the text on each slide should be no less than 30 point. This helps ensure that the information provided on each slide is necessary; it also forces you to explain your slides.

3. Always Design A Unique Template
There are some steps in designing professional templates. Consider designing your own template by following some of the steps given on various websites, or purchase a template. This will allow you to create the theme that is best suited to your presentation. Audiences have seen the common

PowerPoint templates time and time again, so give them something different to look at. The extra effort that you take in creating something unique will pay off in helping to maintain audience attention.

4. Ensure That Your Content Is Correct
Never be in a hurry while preparing the content of your presentation slides. Edit and proofread your slides to make sure that the spelling and grammar is perfect. No one wants to look at a slide that has a spelling mistake on it, and no one will trust the opinion of someone whose presentation is riddled with errors.

5. Use Slides To Clarify Points And Ensure That Your Presentation Flows From Slide To Slide
Slides should not carry the entire message. They are there to reinforce your message. You should also avoid reading the slides directly (line by line). Ensure that the ideas in your presentation transits smoothly. Smooth transitions can help your presentation to flow easily from one idea to the next and from one slide to the next.

You do not necessarily have to use fancy style transitions, but you can use verbal clues to tell your audience what is coming up on the next slide—and why they need to know.

6. Summarize Your Points At last
Prepare your audience for what is coming, and then use the body of your presentation to tell them your three major points. Use your last slide to summarize your presentation and remind the audience about key points they might have already forgotten.

How To Prepare Aesthetically Pleasing Slides

1. Do Not Put Too Much Information In One Slide
Do not include too much text. Try to keep your slides clutter-free and full of blank space. A good rule of thumb is 30–40 words per slide.

2. Always Be Concise
It has been proven that the average human attention span is eight seconds, which is less than the attention span of a goldfish (nine seconds)! You need to be clear and get your point across quickly before your audience zones out. Make sure that the text on your slides is meaningful to your presentation.

3. Learn To Use The Right Colour At The Right Time
Different colors evoke different emotions. For example, red is associated with passion and urgency, blue is calming and evokes tranquility, orange conveys energy and warmth, and green is associated with nature and the environment, while black is heavy and formal.

Gaming / The 5 Top Recommended Pc And Console Game Controllers by microsofttutor(m): 10:11pm On May 17, 2018
There are tons of game controllers or pads in the market these days. This has made it difficult most times for PC and android gamers to pick out the one that most suit their plans. There are a lot of features to compare which will help you figure out the game pad that most suits your gaming style. Some of the features to compare are:

Cross-Platform or PC-Dedicated?: Cross-platforms game controllers can be used both for pc and console (play station) games while Pc-dedicated game pads are used on for pc games. You should know the type that suits you.

Wired or Wireless?: Most gamers prefer wireless game controllers. But the truth is that wireless game pads also have some disadvantages over wired game pads which is mainly the difficulties with certain operating systems - they cause a lot of problems especially in Windows 7.

Weight, Size and Durability: The best recommended game controller should not be too big or too heavy and also, it should not be too light or small and it should serve you for a longer period before it starts to develop faults.

Design Style: There are two main styles of PC controllers: the typical console-type shape, which is similar to a PS4 or Xbox One design, and PC-only designs which has more buttons such as the Razer Orbweaver. Most gamers prefer the console style because it more comfortable and also beginner-friendly. I prefer it myself!

Review Of The 5 Best PC And Console Game Pads

1. Sony Playstation Dualshock 4 (DS4) Controller
[img]https://4.bp..com/-1qigMEM9jA8/Wv2GTduAqvI/AAAAAAAACqU/EEHJotK8D-QnnLjdFx_IEasC0AEnZvOPwCLcBGAs/s320/sony%2Bplaystation%2Bdualshock%2B4%2Bgame%2Bcontroller.jpg[/img]
Dualshock 4 is a new, improved version of DualShock 3 (which has PC driver issues). But Dualshock 4 supports both consoles and pc games. But the controller is mainly made for consoles, but with the help of some third party driver software from steam, you can easily use it to play PC games. The DualShock 4 worked well with both Shovel Knight and Final Fantasy XIV, because both games were programmed with native support for the DualShock.

Features And Specs Of Sony Playstation Dualshock 4

Average Price on Ebay: Around $40
Size: 7.3 x 2.6 x 6.7 inches
Weight: 11.8 ounces
Connectivity: Wired (USB-to-micro-USB) and wireless (through Bluetooth dongle)
Compatible With: Both PlayStation 4 and PC (partially)
Ergonomic design
Headphone jack and built-in speaker
Steam Support

2. Microsoft Xbox One Game Controller

Microsoft Xbox One game Controller is a great improved version of the Xbox 360 generations. The D-pad of the controller has moved away from the 360's disc style to a more traditional four-way cross style, which allows for better accuracy. I recommend it because it is a pretty great PC controller.

Features And Specs Of Microsoft Xbox One Controller
Average Price on Ebay: Around $38
Size: 6.9 x 2.9 x 6.8 inches
Weight: 8 ounces
Connectivity: Wired and Wireless via adapter or new model Bluetooth
Compatible With: PC, XONE
Native Windows support
Textured Grip: This makes the controller more pleasant and stable in your hands.

3. Logitech F310 PC Game Controller
Logitech is one of the renowned companies in PC hardware. The controller installs and operates almost immediately like most PC controllers, but it has other pack-ins to allow for use with other games. I recommend the Logitech F310 because it is versatile, and very cheap. But it is USB wired (built-in) and also lacks vibration feedback.

Features And Specs Of Logitech F310 PC Controller
Average Price on Ebay: Around $25
Size: 6 x 7.6 x 2 inches
Weight: 10.4 ounces
Connectivity: USB wired (built-in)
Compatible With: PC only

Having a custom email for your website makes it look professional. You can setup your custom email to synchronize with your personal gmail, hotmail or yahoo mail account so that a copy of every email that comes into the custom email will be forwarded to your gmail or hotmail address. Also you can reply any of those emails through your gmail or hotmail address and the receiver will see it as though you sent it through your custom email address. Most clients prefer to write to you through a custom email. When they don't see one, they may conclude that your site is not professional.

Also most times, you might be finding it difficult to login to your webmail account to check mails sent to your custom email address, but once you setup your gmail properly, there will not be any need to login to your webmail to check your mails because a copy of all the mails from the custom email will be sent to your gmail address.

Webmasters / How Google Detects Invalid Clicks And Causes Of Adsense Ban by microsofttutor(m): 2:00pm On Jan 20, 2018
If you receive a ban or suspension from Google adsense, you've definitely violated the adsense term of services. Many novice bloggers are often banned in a short time because they do not know these rules. Doing the wrong things in the adsense and other forms of advertisements, whether intentionally or unintentionally, will result in a severe penalty, may get you banned and even have your account terminated. So for those who are thinking of getting a career in adsense, do not just think of some illegal strategies you will be using to generate more earnings. Consider some things first before you actually get involved. Another thing you should know is that Google Adsense Ban or suspension is non-appealable. This tutorial article reveals to you the various strategies Google uses to detect invalid click, some causes of Google adsense invalid clicks/suspension and how to protect your adsense account from being banned.
[img]https://2.bp..com/-k1OYnR6-3-w/WmMdYDtOsRI/AAAAAAAAChE/JrZaxNLMHzExueW0m0k1VgDEerKR81WCwCLcBGAs/s400/how%2Bto%2Bavoid%2Badsense%2Bsuspension%2Bor%2Bban.jpg[/img]
How Google Detects Invalid Adsense Clicks
Many bloggers ask how Google detects invalid ad clicks. Here are some of the strategies that Google uses to detect invalid adsense clicks:

IP Address And Mac Address
Once you sign up for Google adsense account, Google takes note of your device IP address and Mac address. Mac address is the unique number or code allocated your device. So if you click on your adsense from your device or if you tell a relative to click on your adsense account at regular intervals, Google can easily detect it as invalid click through the IP and Mac addresses of the device.

Sudden Rise Or Fall In Ad Click Patterns:
If the click patterns of your ads suddenly rise and after some time, it falls, Google suspects that you might have arranged an ad click program for your site.

Extremely High CTR:
CTR means Click Through Ratio. It the ratio of your total site traffic to those that actually clicked on your ads. Google adsense teams may suspect or even manually inspect your ad click sources if your CTR is extremely high. The normal or optimum adsense CTR range is 0.5% to 10%

Cookies:
Almost all Google services use cookies. Therefore even if you use multiple google accounts to click on your ads, Google will detect easily because any click on the advertisements can easily be tracked with the cookies set in the browser.

Getting More Ad clicks From Social Media:
It is recommended to monitor the traffic ratio of a site closely. Receiving large number of clicks from social referrals indicates Google that it could be an inflated clicks from the publisher’s own friends and circles. if your site gets more clicks from social media, endeavour to work on your Search engine traffic in order to balance your social media to search engine traffic ratio.

Causes Of Adsense Account Ban/Suspension (Things Not To Do)
Invalid Clicks And Impressions:
Do not click on your ads and you cannot use any means that artificially increases impressions or clicks on your website (including manual methods)

Persuading People To Click Your Ads:
Do not ask third parties to click on your ads, and do not use deceptive ad implementation methods to persuade your page visitors to click your ads.

Putting Ads on Copyright Protected Materials and Counterfeit Goods:
Do not publish copyrighted contents on your blog or website unless you have the legal rights to post such content. And even if you do not put adsense ads on such articles. Also Google ads cannot appear on pages that sell or promote counterfeit goods.

Invalid Traffic Sources:
Do not place Google ads on pages that receive traffic from particular sources (for example, do not participate in paid to click programs, send unsolicited e-mails or post announcements following actions performed by software applications).

Abnormal Site Behavior:
Sites where Google ads appear must be easy to navigate and should not change users' preferences or redirect users to unwanted websites, by launching downloads, malware or pop-ups and pop-clouds that interfere with browsing.

Google Advertising Cookies:
AdSense Publishers must comply with and draw up the privacy rules that provide the opportunity for third parties to enter and read cookies on users' browsers.

Health / See FAQ And Answers On Nutrition And Weight Loss by microsofttutor(m): 8:14pm On Jan 18, 2018
Here are some answers to 14 commonly or frequently asked questions (FAQ) on nutrition and weight loss provided by two experienced Specialists in Health and Nutrition, and Weight Loss Dr. Dyan Joseph and Dr. Larsen Angela. They explicitly revealed the recommended meals and prohibited meals for weight watchers and also explained how alcohol reacts in the body. Study them carefully.
[img]https://2.bp..com/-C_yXp8PpIw4/WmDk8HeKW6I/AAAAAAAAAC0/isnOZ7ZYriQPS6Hfd8WwDrl9OsdzL6kAgCLcBGAs/s400/nutrition-and-weight-loss-FAQ.jpg[/img]
Question 1: Is the consumption of chocolate totally bad for a weight watcher?
Answer: [/b]Cacao (cocoa) beans are high in beneficial antioxidants. However, they’re also more than 50% fat. And we never eat these cacao beans raw. We add sugar, fat, and milk. Like other things, a little dark chocolate from time to time is okay, but eating it every day is a bad idea.

[b]Question 2: I sometimes take beer and wine even though am a weight watcher, is it good?
Answer:
There’s research to indicate that drinking one serving per day of beer or wine may be beneficial in reducing heart attacks. Other studies show a definite link between alcohol consumption in any amount and an increase in certain cancers in women. Also, as we mentioned earlier, alcohol lowers inhibitions, which often leads to more eating.

Question 3: What’s the difference between polyunsaturated fat and trans fat?
Answer:
Trans fats are detrimental to health because they increase your “bad” cholesterol and lower “good” cholesterol levels in your body. Trans fats promote blockage of your arteries, thus increasing your risk for heart attack, stroke, and other vascular diseases. Trans fat is called “partially hydrogenated oil” or “shortening” in the ingredient list. Polyunsaturated fat, on the other hand, is healthy and helps prevent blood vessel disease. Vegetable oils are an excellent source of these beneficial fats, provided they’ve not been hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated.

Question 4: I always feel unstable when I take sweet, coffee and sometimes alcohol. Why is it so?
Answer:
Sweets, alcohol, and coffee contain irritating acids and they also stimulate the stomach to over-produce its own acid. This causes stomach acids to get up into the esophagus where they don’t belong. This problem is accelerated if you overeat or you’re overweight. Lying down too soon after you eat also contributes to the problem. Stomach acid in the esophagus is called heartburn or sour stomach. Thus, the antacids.
You feel unstable when you consume these stuffs because your body is telling you to quit eating or drinking the offending foods, especially within 4 hours before you lay down to sleep.

Question 5: Does Sodium serve the same as salt?
Answer:
Most Americans consume at least twice the daily maximum recommended amount of sodium, which is 10 to 20 times the amount necessary to sustain life. Most of this sodium is from salt which is added to processed foods. Sodium raises blood pressure, a major risk factor for heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, and blindness.

[b]Question 6: Which of the natural sweeteners are recommendable?
Answer: [/b]Honey is a readily available natural sweetener. Agave nectar, made from the agave cactus, is also an excellent substitute. These sweeteners are much better for you than table sugar, but they should still be used in moderation.

How To Create A Blog On Blogger.com Platform
How To Setup The blog To Look Professional
Now let's get started!

Part 1: How To Create A Blog On Blogger.Com Platform
1. Go to www.blogger.com and click on "Create Your Blog" as shown in the screenshot below. Ensure that you have a gmail account, else create one now before you continue.

2. Sign in to your gmail account. You may also create a new gmail for your blog with the intended domain name of your blog.

3. Next, you will be required to type your blog title and a unique blog domain name or address. Your blog title appears on the web browser tab of your visitors when they visit your blog.

Always choose generic names that looks professional and easy to remember. I don't advise you to use your name as your blog domain name. Also make sure that the custom version of your blog address is still free because you might want to buy it in future so that your blog address will no longer have the "."extension.

Webmasters / 7 Tips To Help You Build A Successful And Trending Website by microsofttutor(m): 6:19pm On Dec 24, 2017
The sole target of every blogger or web developer is to build a successful and trending blog or website. But before you can create or build a successful website that will boom as you desire, there are some tips you need to know, understand and apply. In this tutorial article, I will explain some of these success tips especially for bloggers and some things you must consider before creating a successful blog or website. I will also reveal how to boost your site traffic for free.
[img]https://1.bp..com/-NunUjl7Kf0c/Wj_KLU1FZmI/AAAAAAAACYo/0FAtSGQl8BQqnDVooISHdjm0X4uWy2_PgCLcBGAs/s400/building-a-successful-blog.jpg[/img]
Here are some of the things that determines how successful your blog or website will be. Therefore, you need to put them into consideration before you even start creating a blog or website.
Considering the niche/category of the blog or website
Choosing the design platform/script language
Choosing a good domain name
Choosing a good blog template
Writing engaging and detailed blog posts and articles
Writing guest posts/sponsored posts
Promoting your blog or website

Now, I will elaborate each of these tips. Let’s get started!

Considering The Niche/Category Of The Blog Or Website
This is the first and foremost thing to consider because it will also help you to make the right choice for the subsequent listed tips above. You must first conclude to build a blog or website on a particular niche. Niche is the category of information you intend to provide on your blog/website. In order to create a successful blog, you must first choose a trending niche and also have passion for that niche.

Some of the trending unsaturated niches/categories are: Fashion, Health and fitness, Online food recipes, Sports and gaming, etc. Most people don’t succeed in blogging because they chose the wrong niche or because they don’t have passion for the niche they chose. Don’t choose a niche just because you have passion for the niche. Don’t open a blog and start writing the story of your life unless you just want to blog for fun!

You might find it very difficult to succeed if the niche is already saturated. Also, a niche might be trending but is already saturated because many people blog on the niche. A new blog might find it difficult to gain fame, grow or become noticed in such a niche. Imagine a new blog that is in the same niche with Microsoft website. Imagine how many years it might take it to gain fame and how far it fame will go! Some of the trending saturated niches are: entertainment and celebrity news, tutorials, etc.

Don’t try to combine so many niches in one website. You can combine about 3 similar niches. But if possible, maintain one niche. It helps your site to gain fame faster.

Choosing The Design Platform/Script Language
Once you have decided and concluded on the category of your blog, the next thing to consider is the design platform of your blog or website. By design platform, I mean where you will host your website and the script language to use. For a blog, the 2 most popular platforms are blogger and wordpress.

Blogger.com is a free platform provided by Google to help those who have the passion to own a blog but don’t have the money or the knowledge of how to code or build a website from scratch. One of the advantages of this platform is that you don’t need to buy a hosting. Google hosts your blog for free.. in order to use or create a blog on blogger, you must have an active gmail account. You can always create one for free at gmail.com.

Blogger offers a free “.blospot.com” domain name extension. But you can always buy and use a custom domain name which does not include the “.”.

The second popular platform for a blog is wordpress. Wordpress is a free Content Management System (CMS). It also offers a free”.” free domain name extension you can use until you decide to buy a custom domain name for your blog. It can also be used to create a full complex website, unlike blogger. Another advantage that wordpress site have over blogger sites is that that there many wordpress plugins that help you setup or manage your blog or website.

One of the disadvantages of wordpress CMS over blogger is that you must buy a hosting plan before you can use a custom domain name. The domain registrar I recommend for you is godaddy.com. They have many packages that suits your plan.Before you decide to host your site with a hosting company, first check the features available in the hosting plan you are opting for especially the band width. Go for a plan that as high band width if you are planning to build a huge website with many media like movie, audio, etc.

There are other platforms and language scripts for designing websites and blogs especially if you wish to design from scratch such as php/MySQL, html/css, java, javascript, etc.

Choosing A Good Domain Name
When you have decide on the design platform and scripting language to use, the next important thing to consider is to choose a good domain name. A domain name is a unique URL that directs people to your website or blog when they type it in a web browser. For example, the domain name for this website is www.microsofttut.com. Domain names are usually renewed annually. There are other available domain extensions apart from “.com” such as “.net”, “.edu”, “.org”, “.info”, etc.

A good domain name will help your blog or website to gain fame easily. Here are some of the things to consider that will help you choose a domain name for blog/website:
Avoid too long domain names
Avoid names that have many spelling options/alternatives
Avoid names that start with numbers
Choose a name that will be easier to remember.

Choosing A Good Blog Template
Next is to choose a blog template that will suit your site design and which is also optimized to help your site rank well on search engines. Here are some the things to consider when choosing a template for your website or blog:
How SEO friendly it is
The load time or loading speed of the template
How user-friendly it is, especially in its mobile view because up to 80% of traffic these days come from mobile phone users.
The colour combinations used in the template.

There are many templates available, both free and paid (premium) versions offered by many websites. The website I recommend is soratemplates.com. They have user friendly and SEO friendly blog templates. You can also design your website or template from scratch if you are good in web development.

CAUSES OF UNFAITHFULNESS IN THE FAMILY

Causes of infidelity in Christian family are often termed as the work of the devil. That could be right, but we also know that “curse causeless shall not come”. No smoke without fire. Experiences have shown that situations abound in Christian families that often serve as doorway or legal right for the enemy to operate against the family. Such as:

Sin and backsliding (Proverbs 14:14, Mathew 26:41): Unrepented sins will surely lead to more sinful tendencies like lust (Mathew5:28, Proverbs 6:23-25) “then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin” James 1:5 Immorality is the end product of unchecked lusts?

Separation (1 Corinthians 7:10) where was Adam when Satan came to tempt Eve?

Straying away from the matrimonial home (Proverbs 7:11, 12; Genesis 34:1-2, Judges 14:1)

Serious lack of affection leading to dissatisfaction (Genesis 2:18, 1 Timothy 5:8, 1 Corinthians 7:3-5), A man or woman hungry for affection is a ready prey of attraction and seduction of the evil ones around. Lack of care could led to lack of affection.

Societal influence (1 John 2:15-17, James 4:4, 1 Timothy 5:6, 1 Corinthians 15:33)

Little affection for the world and the things that are in the world could lead to gradual flow of carnality, worldliness and covetousness. Carnal comparison will follow, and ultimately dissatisfaction with what is available will come in. wrong association and evil; comparison brings evil influence.

Secretive tendency (2 Corinthians 4:2, 1 Thessalonians 2:3,5), not being open and straight forward with each other; having something to hide could lead to mutual suspension and in the end of unfaithfulness of one or both parties

Suspicious attitudes and suspension. Lack of mutual trust could eventually end up in total distrust of each other. That is an open invitation to Satan and infidelity in the family

Surrendering to temptation arising from the acting problem (money, childlessness etc.) in the family.

Satanic assault (Genesis 3:1-6; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15, 3; 1 Peter 5:8-9). Satan and spoiler of good things wrecker of family peace, hope and destiny. Through various agents and methods he manipulates people where he is free to operate, into shameful affairs.

CONSEQUENCES OF INFIDELITY IN A FAMILY

Unfaithfulness or infidelity in the family is a breach of marriage vow. It rubbishes the great victory of husband and wife being one flesh. Therefore the foundation of mutual coexistence and peace in the family is destroyed. Unfaithfulness is a terrible canker-worm eating deep into the fabric of the family setting. It is much like wormwood destroying the wood from within and it crumbles undetected. The person involved in unfaithfulness in a family is engaged in self-destruction. Unfaithfulness in a family is an ill-wind which blows no one any good. No one is at rest. No spouse is at peace with his partner and within himself or herself. Everyone, in the family is a looser. It is a situation that should not be allowed to continue because with it, evil occurrences will come up in quick succession.

Accusation, counter-accusation and attendant fighting

Mental fortune oppression depression and emotional instability

Sinful habit like alcoholism, drug addition

Ill-lucks set-back

Shattered dreams

The future of children in the family is at stake

Loss of properties, opportunities or jobs

Mysterious sicknesses

Protracted pregnancy miscarriage and premature birth

Mysterious accidents and death

The displeasure of God is easily seen in his given room to the evil to operate freely in the family, no more spiritual security and joy in the family

Evil begets evil righteous living of each member of the family is marred. Hope of heaven is jeopardized. Eternity with God is at the brink of being ruined as eternal life becomes a mere wish.

CURE FOR UNFAITHFULNESS IN THE FAMILY

Once infinity is discovered in the family prayer should immediately start for the grace of God to seek and find solution to it. What threatens the life and eternity of a person should be taken up with seriousness it requires. Prayerfully and carefully follow the following steps

Resolve to deal with the issue with the wisdom of God (James 1:5)

Recognize that the essence of your marriage is peaceful consistence hat should not annual your salvation.

Career / 8 Simple Steps To Write A Book And Rank A Best Seller by microsofttutor(m): 10:33pm On Nov 06, 2017
Writing a Best Selling book is very easy if you understand the concept of engaging your readers. Every reader has some points he or she will like you to elaborate on your work. Your ability to discover and interpret these expected points is what helps to stand out as a Best Seller in your niche.

How to write a best a best selling book
The truth is that writing best-selling books needs some inspiration which you can draw from many sources. As a Best Selling Amazon Author, I had some challenging experience which I later overcame before I eventually got to the top. In this article, I will reveal the eight secrets you need to know in order to write a best-selling book in some publishing platforms like: Amazon, CreateSpace, Barnes & Noble, etc.

#1: Read and Learn from Books Written by Best Sellers:
The easiest way to learn is by reading what others have written especially from those who have already succeeded in your niche or field. Always draw your inspirations from the works of Best Sellers but do not plagiarize their works because it might hurt you.

#2: Keep Company With Best Sellers:
Collaborate with Best Selling Authors in your niche. Try to build a strong social relationship with them. Also help young authors to draw inspirations from your works. Since all writers need encouragement and praise, it is vital that the people around you can provide these benefits. Particularly, you need to include writers in your circle of friends. And specifically, if possible, writers who are published and more successful than you. Most people believe that Best Sellers keep a lot to themselves. But that is not true. The closer you attach yourself to them, the more you learn how to avoid some mistakes they made some time ago in their career.

#3: Share Your Knowledge with Others:

Do not keep your knowledge to yourself alone. Share it with others because the more you share your ideas, the more ideas you learn from others. Many writers giving advice say an author shouldn’t talk about what he or she is writing. It’s true that talking too much to too many people about your forthcoming book, article, or blog post can suck the energy out of any creative project. I agree with that premise, but do want accentuate the positive truth that you should be talking about what you are doing in your own life. Especially the stuff you plan to include in your book.

#4: Act Now! Start Writing:
Ideas flow once you kick off. Do not wait until you have gathered all the knowledge you need because they will never come all at once. If you are serious, begin to write at least one page a day. It doesn’t have to have a purpose or specific goal, but you have to do it with energy and without exception. You should wake up every morning and immediately write three pages. Some folks might find that too daunting. Do it if you can, but at the very least–one page. Once you have done this for a month, check out your first pages versus your latest pages and you will find the practice has made a difference. This will change your results whether you are wanting to write a book, a blog, persuasive emails, or clever Tweets.

#5: Capture Your Readers Attention with your Opening Lines:
The easiest way to attract the attention of a reader is to make the first line of your book engaging. Market researchers and psychologists have both reached the same conclusion, that first minute of contact is vital. It is that minute that determines the progress of any interaction–personal or professional. Once you are able to get your reader’s interest with the first line of your book, he or she will continue to read your book with that initial interest because you impressed him or her. At first line.

#6: Always Sound Like an Expert:
No matter how many subjects you have mastered and how many tricks you possess, it is useful to appear as if you are a supreme master, a real expert about one important subject.

#7: Know your Competitors and Always Stand Out:
Always remember that no idea is 100% unique. Someone else must have had such an idea before you. But your ability to add a value to such an idea is what makes it unique. If you are to write a book, feel strong about what you are saying. Do not sound shaky. Always remember that someone else has written something similar to what you are writing. Attach a high value to your book.

#8: Discover and Develop a Marketing Strategy for Your Book:
It is not good enough to write a book with high value. Try to discover a marketing strategy that suites your book. Most Best sellers resort to presell on book publishing platforms like Amazon, Barnes & Noble few months earlier before the actual launch day for the book. In this way, they enjoy free pre-order ads from these platforms and once the book is launched, it begins to sell. Some other Best Sellers prefer to start their book promotion from the release day of the book and also use some paid book marketing websites and social media.
