Children look away now! For Turkish archaeologists believe they have found the tomb of the original Santa Claus, otherwise known as Saint Nicholas.
An intact tomb has been found underneath Saint Nicholas Church, in the Demre district of Turkey's south-west province of Antalya.
Demre was built on the ruins of Myra, where St Nicholas was thought to have lived in the 4th Century.
Until now, the bones of St Nicholas were believed to be in Bari, Italy.
It had been thought they were taken by Italian merchants in 1087 when Myra - at the time a Greek town - was invaded by the Seljuk Turks.
By then St Nicholas was already revered among Christians for his generosity, in particular to children, and his humility.
The church of St Nicholas in Demre is a popular destination for pilgrims as the site of St Nicholas's final resting place, and archaeological excavations have been taking place there for 20 years.
Cemil Karabayram, Antalya Director of Surveying and Monuments, said recent scientific and technological studies had revealed the existence of an intact tomb under the church.
"The temple on the ground of the church is in good condition," he told Turkey's Hurriyet newspaper . "We believe that it has received no damage so far. But it is hard to enter it because there are stones with motifs on the ground. These stones should be scaled one by one and then removed."
He also said that during a study of old documents they had found notes saying the bones taken to Bari had belonged to another priest.
A CT scan, a geo-radar and eight academics had been brought in for the final stages of the excavation work.
"The world's eyes will be set on here. We claim that St Nicholas has been kept in this temple without any damage. We are at the last stage. If we get the results, Antalya's tourism will gain big momentum," he told the newspaper.
Saint Nicholas's kindness became legendary over the centuries and he was popularised as Father Christmas who gives presents to children. The Dutch took their version "Sinterklaas" when they settled in America, where he became the Santa Claus many know today.

Dats not what I mean... yeah most of us are aware of d wat is written about alcohol in d bible... but wat is d need of this picture.... it's almost like dey are joking with it.... ....

I appreciate the way you took ur time to clarify things. but I have learnt to be careful about passing judgement. it may be on dubious person that snap them and post it

abelprice:
This is why d Muslim think Christianity is a joke.... because d Christians make joke out of it..... you will neva see d Islamic religion creating a scene like this one in deir movie.. ...

my brother, your sentiment like that of many others arise from an unfortunate lack of accurate bible knowledge. if there was photography in cana during that marriage, Jesus and his disciples would most probably have been photographed this way, Mary his mother that encouraged him to help sort the wine deficiency might have been among them too.
Bible doesn't discourage the consumption of alcohol, what it kick against like in taking food too, is overindulgence. Godly Men like Noah, David, Nehemiah, Solomon, the disciples, Paul took, served someone or recommend Alcohol.
what more, there are medical benefits of a healthy consumption of Alcohol.... let me go and open my Baron jare...

pls what will be the effect of this tstv people have been making a lot of noise about on our business?

this news dey make me fear oo...considering my ways with some of this ladies that you know in your hearts of hearts that you aren't the only one they are 'playing' with.
The wahala with unprotected sex, is that many of this our Nigeria ladies (except the oloshos) will not just give in to you even though they are dieing for you. they will make you suffer for the 'thing.' So unfortunately the time they will allow you will meet you so suddenly, you can't tell them pls let me run and go get a condom, or worse ask them do you have a condom (they will most likely not give u even if they have. this is so you don't take them as an ashewo). the worst is if you remove a condom from ur pocket! you will be dismissed as a 'Bleep around' or they will tell u, 'so you have this bad intension in your mind all the while'.
So most times, my brother, we just enter like that. because na one rare chance that might not present itself again. and after this chance, the 'gate will be eternally opened. once debe, ever debe.
so my sis. pls help us to be able to plan that first time with you better, so we will stop doing it at the shop, under the mango tree when seeing you off, in the car, in the pool etc.
and pls dear God. just make your kingdom come quickly. because I don't see how we can stop this fucking about oo

I like this development; to me, any government that doesnt take refurbishing the police force seriously, is not serious with the fight against corruption. Its my simple way of measuring a good government. Because the police force should be the face of a nation, especially to foreigners. They should not so brazenly and shamelessly disgrace a nation publicly and consistently.

Nigeria's police chief Ibrahim Idris has ordered the immediate removal of all police roadblocks across the country.
Many Nigerians will welcome the news because these roadblocks are often little more than excuses to demand bribes from both ordinary travellers and those transporting goods.
The police statement, however, said the move was intended to reduce time wasted at roadblocks and ease business.
What happens at a roadblock?
Meeting a policeman on the road can be an exhausting experience.
The Ak47 slung casually across his shoulder does little to reassure you about your safety.
More than likely he - and it is invariably a man - would ask you to identify yourself and provide a driving licence.
Then he would ask to check the boot of your car. Next he would verify that you have everything required by law - a fire extinguisher in each car, a warning triangle (C-caution), insurance, roadworthiness certificate and other documentation.
Any omission would lead to the choice of accompanying him to the police station, or an offer to "help you settle it" then and there, (pay a bribe to let you go).
Even if you are up to date on everything, that doesn't mean you can proceed with your journey.
The officer would subtly ask if you have "anything for the boys", or point out how hot the weather is (so he needs money for a drink).
This is not a rare occurrence, it is so common that Nigerian comedians often make fun of the police for soliciting bribes.
What not to do at a checkpoint
Receiving calls at a checkpoint can cause further delays.
Security forces generally take offence at people making calls in front of them.
Things could become worse if you try to film proceedings.
They do not take lightly to attempts to record them.
In 2013 police sergeant Chris Omeleze was sacked after a man filmed him trying to collect a bribe at the Lagos international airport. The victim posted the video on YouTube and it soon went viral.
How do you know which is an official roadblock?
There is no clear-cut way to distinguish between a real roadblock and a basic shake-down.
You will most likely see a barrel with the Nigeria police colours - blue, yellow and green - in the middle of the road.
At night a wobbling torch could be the only indicator of a police checkpoint ahead.
If you are unlucky it could also be armed robbers.
While some roadblocks are set up in order to catch criminals, others are merely a money-making scheme for corrupt police officers.
These often spring up at night and weekends.
The police chief has now ordered officers to wear uniforms with their name tags and service numbers visible. So a quick search on the police website could help you identify them and make a report.
How much is a bribe?
Nigeria's Bureau of Statistics (NBS) 2017 corruption survey said that 32% of adults who had come into contact with public officials had been asked for a bribe.
The NBS says a total of 82 million naira ($230,000; £170,000) was paid in bribes to public officials in Nigeria in the previous 12-month period. This equates to an average of one bribe per person per year.
A typical bribe from motorists would be 20 naira (five cents; four pence).
Worst hit are taxis and trucks transporting goods.
These groups are less likely to challenge authority and are often pressed for time, so they would rather pay a bribe.
A 2013 Transparency International global corruption barometer said that 92% of respondents in Nigeria felt the police were corrupt or extremely corrupt.
Will the roadblock ban succeed?
This is not the first attempt to rid Nigeria's streets of roadblocks.
In 2012, then police chief Mohammed Dahiru Abubakar made a similar order and more than 3,500 checkpoints were cleared out.
However, they have since found their way back.
This fresh order is another attempt to improve the image of the police.
According to the statement, special "x-squad" teams have been deployed throughout the country to arrest, investigate and discipline any police officer violating the directive.
Every police department must now seek the permission of the inspector general of police to mount roadblocks.
This is just one of the measures that Inspector General Idris has introduced to try and improve the generally negative public image of his force.
But it will take a long time, and concrete evidence of change, before most Nigerians agree with the slogan proudly posted on most police stations: "The police is your friend".-BBC

A couple arrested for murder in the south-west Russian city of Krasnodar have admitted killing up to 30 people, local media report.
Dmitry Baksheev, 35, and his wife Natalia, were reportedly arrested after a dismembered body was found at the military base where they lived.
Police confirmed a number of food and meat items discovered at their home were now being tested for human DNA.
Caution: contains graphic content
A mobile phone was found by road construction workers earlier this month with graphic images of dismembered body parts on the device.
One photograph uncovered and published on Russian media appears to show Mr Baksheev posing with a dismembered body part in his mouth.
A body of a 35-year-old woman was then reportedly discovered at a military academy where the couple live.
The body was dismembered and a bag of the victim's belongings were reportedly also found.
The couple reportedly still lived in the hostel accommodation at the property after once working at the site.
The Russian interior ministry confirmed the man in the images had been identified and arrested.
'Body parts in jars'
Footage has been released on Russian state media reportedly showing police searching the couple's home.
A number of human body parts were pictured, some preserved in saline in jars.
In a statement, the Investigative Committee of the Krasnodar Territory confirmed that during the search "food fragments and frozen meat pieces of unknown origin were seized in the kitchen".
They confirmed forensic testing was being done to determine if the items were human or animal.
Russian media report that photographs found printed in the apartment and on mobile phones could suggest the killings could date back almost two decades.
One photograph is dated 28 December 1999 and appears to show a dismembered human head on a serving plate with fruit.
Police have confirmed the couple remain in custody on the initial murder charge while further investigations and biological testing continues.

We shouldnt demonise DSTV all the time.
DSTV is very reliable.

Two frnds bought KWESE SPORTS yesterday. Today, they want to show the Chelsea match but they can't because all the sports channels have gone off this evening.

Kwese office is telling them some channels are down or so.

I will stick to DSTV any time, any day.

All the others will be worse if they are to be given the EPL right.

hmmn...you have a point. but the problem is that they don't have enough viable competitors. there price are unsustainable to most viewing center owners. and its obvious they don't carry us along very well.

dagok:
From two seasons ago they lost the French Ligue 1, lost the Germany Bundesliga, Italian Serie A, the Brazilian league.

One would wish they Compensated all these lost with a reduction in subscription fees but No. Infact they have biannually kept increasing their fee despite the lost of these contents acting under the guise of still having the UEFA Champions League and English Premier League, LALIGA games(just Barcelona and Real Madrid appeals there) to show off with.

Backed by the little watched Europa league all thanks to Chelsea and Manchester United who have graced there recently and now Arsenal.

The FA Cup there again they will say they have it.



Dstv Don jonzi again.

Despite the fact that we cant even watch European qualifiers for World Cup again and lost some FIFA tournament to rival Pay TV.

This season again, they have recorded another low losing the right to show the mid week League Cup popularly know as Carling Cup but now Carabao to another but new Pay TV platform Kwese Sports is a big disappointment and scam of the highest order without any apologies to the their esteem customers.


So no league Cup on dstv this coming mid week but only a Kwese Sports.

Subscribers to their Compact Plus packages cant even see all Champions League games again like last season and even the dedicated collective package for sport has made life difficult for viewing centre owners with their strict rules yet logistics and matches scheduling failure.

Yet their fee kept increasing.


Dstv is fraud.
Take it to the bank.




Who will save us

u are so on point. I was left stunned when I discovered I couldn't show yesterday matches after I had advertised them. South African companies appear to be ripping us off. pls how can I show this matches-today own. pls get back to me soonest

why is dstv not showing today matches-EFL CUP?

DSTV no show today matches ooo. where I fit watch this matches

A 13-year-old girl who died from a brain aneurysm has helped a record eight different people, including five children, through organ donation.
Jemima Layzell, from Somerset, who died in 2012, donated her heart, pancreas, lungs, kidneys, small bowel and liver.
Jemima's parents said she was clever, compassionate and creative - and would have been "very proud of her legacy".
NHS Blood and Transplant said no other donor had helped as many people.
Jemima collapsed during preparations for her mum's 38th birthday party and died four days later at Bristol Royal Hospital for Children.
Her heart, small bowel, and pancreas were transplanted into three different people while two people received her kidneys.
Her liver was split and transplanted into a further two people, and both of her lungs were transplanted into one patient.
Normally, a donation results in 2.6 transplants - eight is very unusual.
'Special and unique'
Jemima's mum Sophy Layzell, 43, a drama tutor, and dad Harvey Layzell, 49, managing director of a building firm, said they knew Jemima was willing to be a donor because they had spoken about it a couple of weeks before her death, after someone they knew died in a crash.
Sophy said: "They were on the register but their organs couldn't be donated because of the circumstances of their death.
"Jemima had never heard of organ donation before and found it a little bit unsettling but totally understood the importance of it."
She said they still found the decision to donate their daughter's organs hard, but felt it was right.
"Everyone wants their child to be special and unique and this among other things makes us very proud.
"Shortly after Jemima died, we watched a programme about children awaiting heart transplants and being fitted with Berlin Hearts in Great Ormond Street Hospital.
"It affirmed for us that saying 'no' would have been denying eight other people the chance for life, especially over Jemima's heart, which Harvey had felt uncomfortable about donating at the time."
They said it was very important for families to talk about organ donation.
"Every parent's instinct is to say no, as we are programmed to protect our child. It's only with prior knowledge of Jemima's agreement that we were able to say yes.
"Jemima was lovely - clever, funny, compassionate and creative - and we feel sure she would be very proud of her legacy," Sophy said.
'Too many say no'
Sophy, Harvey, and Jemima's sister Amelia, aged 17, now run The Jemima Layzell Trust, which helps young people with brain injuries and also promotes organ donation.
NHS Blood and Transplant said hundreds of people were still dying unnecessarily while waiting for a transplant because too many families said no to organ donation.
Last year, 457 people died waiting for a transplant, including 14 children.
There are currently 6,414 people on the transplant waiting list, including 176 children.
In 2015, 22-year-old Tom Wilson died in a freak accident after he was hit on the head by a hockey stick.
His donated organs, as well as skin, bone and tissue, are thought to have helped the lives of around 50 people.

As far as bad dates go what could be worse then throwing your own faeces out of your date's window because it would not flush, and then getting stuck trying to retrieve it?
When a Bristol man posted online just such a horrifying episode it left us wondering how many other dates had gone horribly wrong.
Here are three other epic date fails.
'I got diarrhoea in the middle of the date'
Andy Maunder in Reading described a mortifying encounter on a date when he was 23 years old.
"Driving back after a lovely meal at a Chinese restaurant we pulled into a quiet spot on a country lane in Aldworth," he explained.
"Suddenly I felt my meal drop from stomach to bowel in one lurch. I knew I couldn't hold it. I also couldn't exactly say I needed to find a toilet, so I pretended I'd been bitten on the bottom by a wasp and leapt out of the car, just managing to squat down by the rear bumper.
"As I relieved myself I badly attempted to disguise the sound with sudden coughing bouts.
"I could hear my date asking from inside the car if I was alright whilst I scrabbled about for anything I could find to clean myself up with, all the time providing a running commentary to my date about my 'bite' and insisting she stay in the car as there were more wasps.
"Eventually, satisfied I'd managed to control the situation, I stood up, pulled up my jeans and sat back in the car, immediately realising my nightmare wasn't over and was about to get worse.
"The back of my jeans were covered and the smell was unbearable.
"As I sat in horror my date burst into fits of laughter and jumped out of the car. But her laughter was short lived.
"As she made her way round the back of the car to come to my aid, she stepped right into the middle of it.
"We never saw each other again."
'My date fell down a drain'
Simon Jackson's date fell for him, literally, during their date in Camberley, Surrey.
"I went on a date that went well but finished quite early so I invited her back to mine for a drink," Simon explained.
"As we walked to the front door in the failing light, with me leading the way, I suddenly heard a scream.
"I spun round only to see her confused and frightened face disappearing into the ground.
"She had accidentally stepped on the loose round cover of the drain that was partly buried in the garden of the terraced house I was renting.
"I had spent the previous six months telling myself I needed to fix it, and had been unconsciously stepping around it.
"She was not so well informed or lucky.
"I ran over to the new hole in the ground and peered in. There, standing up to her thighs in filth, was my date, crying.
"Her dress up by her waist, her new shoes ruined and her dignity quite possibly lost forever.
"She still looked pretty I thought, but this probably wasn't the time to say so. She needed a little more than compliments and comedy at this moment.
"It took a good few sloppy, stinking, messy minutes to haul her out, and then two hours for her to bathe, borrow clothes, talk to her mum on the phone, disinfect and recover.
"As finishes to first dates went, this wasn't my finest.
"Having said that, we were together for three very happy years."
'She was staring through the window at us'
"I was on a first date with a girl and my ex saw us," says "Bob", not his real name.
"She then followed us everywhere and was trying her hardest not to be seen. It was horrible.
"We thankfully managed to lose her halfway through the night.
"We finally decided to let our guard down and relax. Finally the date was getting better.
"We decided to go back to her place to continue our evening.
"As we kissed I noticed a face pressed up against the window of the house.
"It was my ex staring in.
"It put the fright up us both."

As a kid Mbappe was soon in demand. Big demand. At 11, Chelsea invited him for a week to train and spend time at the club. “Yes, of course I remember,” Mbappe says. “It was a wonderful experience. Chelsea was the first great club, the first big club, that I went to visit. So it was a real discovery for me.
“I was coming from my grassroots, amateur club. It was a whole new world. Of course I had an idea what a great football club was like but I was really impressed by the working culture and the mentality of wanting to be better day-in, day-out. And visiting this infrastructure helped me, actually, with my development. I saw things differently because up until then I had just a French mentality and after that I could pick what was positive in other mentalities and build my own.”
He played a match – wearing “Kylian 10” - for Chelsea Under-12s where he was partnered in attack by Abraham, who is currently on loan from Chelsea at Swansea City. Jeremie Boga, a French midfielder also still at Chelsea, and out on loan at Birmingham City, was also in the team.
“We played against Charlton, I think, and we won maybe seven or eight nil,” Mbappe recalls. “I also got to meet some of the first-team players – (Didier) Drogba, (Florent) Malouda – the French-speaking ones and took some pictures with them.”
As motivation, it was unbeatable. “An idea has been reinforced since I was a kid - not just because I went to Chelse. I always thought: ‘I want to be there, I want to be one of those big players who is trying to give people fun out of the game.’ And I have given everything to reach that objective. Now I am on the other side of the camera, on the other side of the TV. That’s the only difference.”

I respect and kind of dread this guy more after listening to this piece. the guy speaks English!!??. mehn, I sea one reason why he hasn't, been caught...anybody that can speak four languages at the least, must be intelligent

I pity the level of your stupidity
You talk this way bcoz u don't even know the scripture

my brother, sharap dia in the name of the lord. the guy is on point. its arrogant on the part of the pastor to think God is an hired assassin. God would kill one of his creation because he slapped somebody's wife. They killed his Son, Jesus, did he killed those people? this kind of seemingly innocent talks is dangerous for the spiritually immature out there

Kenya's Chief Justice David Maraga, and three of his colleagues, have created history by annulling the August presidential election.
It is unprecedented in Africa for an opposition court challenge against a presidential election to succeed.
Kenyans have praised Justice Maraga for having the courage to rule against the man who appointed him, President Uhuru Kenyatta, and for restoring their faith in the independence of the judiciary.
Several Kenyan papers have referred to Justice Maraga as a person of integrity, which they attribute to his being a devout Seventh-day Adventist.
He reportedly told an interview panel that if appointed Chief Justice, he would never preside over a case on a Saturday, a day of rest and worship for members of the Adventist faith.
Some have speculated that this may have been the reason the first sitting of the presidential election petition was held on a Saturday night, after the Sabbath had ended.
It is reported that while being vetted for his job, he was confronted with allegations that he had taken bribes.
He surprised the public by standing before TV cameras and swearing on a Bible that he had never taken a bribe in his life.
