US: Judge Sets Bail At $275000 For American Mom Jailed After Trip To Nigeria

US: Judge Sets Bail At $275000 For American Mom Jailed After Trip To Nigeria

A judge Wednesday set bail at $275000 for a mother accused of abandoning her children to go to Nigeria to marry a man she'd never met in Nigeria.

Read more.

When I read the story, I simply recalled my article Why Do Fools Still Fall in Love?.

Why do fools still fall in love?

She must be a fool for love to have abandoned her 1-year-old baby and five other young children for a useless romantic trip to Nigeria to marry a Nigerian con man she had only met online. Oprah Winfrey would have called her another American “mugu” fooled by another Nigerian Internet scammer to abandon her six children in the US in a foolish quest for love in Nigeria.

5 Things You Did Not Know Your Phone Can Do‏



5 Things you didn't know your phone can do‏


There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be alife saver or an emergency tool for survival.
Checkout the things that you can do with it.

FIRST
Subject: Emergency

The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112.
If you find yourself out of the coverage area of yourmobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number, 112, can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out. (I have entered itin my cell phone number directory)

SECOND
Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car lately?

Does your car have remote keyless entry?
This may come in handy someday.
Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at home pressthe unlock button, holding it near their cell phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you.
Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone that has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

Editor's note: It works fine! We tried it out and itunlocked our car over the cell phone.

THIRD
Subject: Hidden Battery Power

Imagine your cell phone battery is very low. To activate, press the keys Star 3370 pound (*3370#).
Your cell phone will restart with this reserve power and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery power. This reserve will get recharged when you charge your cell phone next time.(I have entered the access number in my cell phone number directory.) *3370#

FOURTH
Subject: How to disable a stolen mobile phone

To check your mobile phone's serial number, key in thefollowing digits on your phone: Star pound 06 pound(*#06#). A 15 digit code will appear on the screen.This number is unique to your handset.
Write the number down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get's stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then beable to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.
You probably won't get your phone back, but at leastyou know that whoever stole it can't use or sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones. And finally, I have made a note of my phones serial number.

FIFTH
Subject: Information calls (for those of you in the US)

Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls when they don't haveto. Most of us do not carry a telephone directory around in our pocket or vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem.
When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial (800) FREE 411 , or 800-373-3411 without incuring any charge at all.
Program this into yourcell phone now. I have entered this number, 800-373-3411 , in my cell phone number directory

I Thank God for My Birthday!

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
~ Psalm 103:5


I am a year older today.
I am very glad and grateful to God for all the beautiful and wonderful things He has been doing in my life from birth.
I thank God for my mother, Gladys Eke of blessed memory and I thank God for my father, Sunday Eke of blessed memory.
I thank God for my brothers and sister and others God has brought into my life.

I thank God for making me one in a million.
I thank God for making my future secure.
For God is my life insurance.

I thank God for the Queen of my heart who called me this morning from Abuja in Nigeria, and for loving me like no other woman has ever loved me since I was born.
She is one in a million.

Psalm 103 (King James Version)

1. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

2. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

3. Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

4. Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

5. Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

6. The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

7. He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

8. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

9. He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.

10. He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

12. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

13. Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

14. For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

15. As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.

16. For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.

17. But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;

18. To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

19. The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

20. Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

21. Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.

22. Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
