Obviously one major cause of infertility today is Sperm Leak or Sperm Pour. Sperm leakage is a major cause of childlessness among many couples. Sperm leakage occurs when semen which contains sperms flow out of the vagina of a woman after sexual intercourse either while she is lying down or after some hours when she gets up. Many couple are facing this problem but they are not talking about them partly because our African culture frowns upon talking about sex publicly.  I read an interesting piece on this topic and I have decided to share with you the main points. Make sure the vaginal canal is clean of any artificial lubricants as these slow down sperm movement and also encourage leakage of sperm. Couples should discourage the use of artificial lubricants such as Creams to facilitate penetration. The men should rather play with their wives for them to get "wet", since a natural lubricant is released when the woman is wet. Woman should urinate shortly befor...

  Bad prison conditions in Ghana: A peep into the Navrongo Prisons Thirty-six (36) prisoners died at the Contagious Diseases Prison (CDP) alone, since 2009. Thus, an average of six deaths per year. In fact, one prisoner dies every two (2) months in this Prison. This death rate is disturbing but not surprising, because the establishment lacks basic facilities and personnel to provide the necessary health care services that will in the long run prevent avoidable and unnecessary deaths of the inmates.

I.      When was Jesus born? FACTS A.     Popular myth puts his birth on December 25th in the year 1 C.E. B.      The New Testament gives no date or year for Jesus’ birth.   The earliest gospel – St. Mark’s, written about 65 CE – begins with the baptism of an adult Jesus.   This suggests that the earliest Christians lacked interest in or knowledge of Jesus’ birthdate. C.   The year of Jesus birth was determined by Dionysius Exiguus, a Scythian monk, “abbot of a Roman monastery.   His calculation went as follows: In the Roman, pre-Christian era, years were counted from “aburbe condita” (the founding of the City - Rome).   Thus 1 AUC signifies the year Rome was founded, 5 AUC signifies the 5th year of Rome’s reign, etc. Dionysius received a tradition that the Roman emperor Augustus reigned 43 years, and was followed by the emperor Tiberius. Luke 3:1, 23 indicates that when Jesus turned 30 year...

An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left. They were moving to a smaller house because they could not afford to stay in the present house after paying the doctor's bills. Only a very costly surgery could save him now and there was no one to loan them the money.  When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother with whispered desperation, “Only a miracle can save him no” , the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her piggy bank from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully.  Clutching the precious piggy bank tightly, she slipped out the back door and made her way six blocks to the local drugstore. She took a quarter from her bank and placed it on the glass counter. "And what do you want?" asked the pharmacist.  "It's for my little brother," the girl answered back. ...
