What's the best way to cure pimple?

To be honest, even I had this problem for ages, they said that pimple or acne come due to some hormones. But I totally hated it.

You have to know the different types of pimples first. If it is simple and small acne, it may come due to heat or when you eat too oily food. So it’s easy to cure

Wash your face 2–3 times a day. It helps to remove the dirt. Make sure you use correct face wash. Apply moisturiser after that.
Please avoid makeup. Don’t paint your face too much. Go natural.
Use herbal face cream.
Wash your face with neem leaves, it definitely works. Soak them overnight in water and Use them to wash your face.
Make sure you keep your face clean. Place a small piece of garlic on the pimple overnight, you can see the difference next day.
Use ice. Rub ice on your face, it also helps to reduce acne.
Use aloe Vera. Apply the gel part for 20 minutes and wash it off. Use it twice.
In case you have severe problem means you can visit a doctor.

Hope it helps…

This year has been very great for me and I am thankful to God and all my fans.

I have been very busy and it has been a roller-coaster for me. I don’t take it for granted, and I will always put my best into all that I do.

It is about showcasing Nigeria to the world in the proper light, and I am glad that there is now more focus on African music. There are indeed a lot of talents out here.

Withdraw your wards from local Turkish schools, Erdogan tells Nigerians, other Africans

The President of Turkey, Recep Erdogan, has called on parents in Africa to withdraw their children from Turkish-run schools across the continent because the schools are run by those he described as terrorists.

In an exclusive interview with AllAfrica.com prior to a three-country official visit to Sudan, Chad and Tunisia this week, Mr. Erdogan said the schools are run by an organisation that uses education as a façade to hide their real intent.
The schools are linked to United States based Cleric, Fethullah Gulen, a former ally of Mr Erdogan turn arch-rival. Mr. Erdogan accused Mr. Gulen as being the mastermind of the July 2016 attempted coup that left 250 people dead. Mr. Gulen has denied the accusations.

“Without any further ado, I will like to mention something. Whether your nephews, nieces and your children, do not send them to either one of these network schools,” Mr. Erdogan said.

“Education is just a disguise for the terrorists working for these organisations, even religion is a disguise for the Fethullahists. In the Quran, Allah condemned those who are using prayers as disguised as they will never be conscientious to the practice of prayer that is why we would remain alert. We would never be manipulated. The coup plotters are the Fethullahists.

“They have all been identified and some of them have been sentenced to aggravated life imprisonment. These Fethullahists came to kill me and my family members but Allah protected us and in a matter of minutes we were saved from their bombs, their attacks but two of my security guarded were killed… there are 29 martyrs around the presidential complex which was attacked that night as well.

“We are warning all our brothers in Africa not to be deceived because the Fethullahists have great sums of money out of their actions. In 1999, the Chief terrorist, fled to the United States to live in Pennsylvania. We have demanded his extradition immediately.”

Mr. Erdogan threatened that if the United States refuses to extradite Mr. Gulen to face terrorism charges in Turkey, he would reject any demand made by the United States for Turkey to extradite terrorists to the United States.

“We have amassed 85 boxes filled with evidence proving that he was the major perpetrator of the coup but he has not been extradited yet. But tomorrow if the United States asked for the extradition of a terrorist I will say no to them because this man is the killer of 252 martyrs, 292 veterans; still residing in the United States.”

10 things to avoid in Internet banking

Internet banking has always been an important part of our daily lives. Being an easy alternative to card payments and e-wallets, Internet banking makes online transactions really easy.

At present, Internet banking is the best and safest online payment option available, according to www.trak.in/tags/business.com

With the rapid growth of Internet banking, the cybercrimes have seen a massive rise too. The cyber criminals have constantly been devising newer ways to breach the security measures. Here are 10 precautions you should take, to ensure the safety of your Internet banking account.

Keeping the same password for a long time or sharing your password
One simple trick to keep your account safe is to change your password on a regular basis. Choose a strong password, something like a mix of both upper and lower case letters with numbers and one or two special characters. Plus, if you have several Internet banking accounts, never use that same password for all of them.

Signing in to your Internet-banking account via an e-mail link
Never sign in into your Internet banking account via any emailer or any e-mail link. These email links are mostly malicious and could be phishing mails which aim to steal all your confidential information. Though they look the same, they create an exact replica of your bank’s website to lure you away.

Not logging out once you are done
Always do log out of the device once you are done and the transaction is complete. This will save you to a huge extent from falling prey to the hacking attacks like session hijacking and cross-site scripting exploits. Even it is better to clear off your browser history and cache once your transaction is complete.

Use bank’s official app only, not third party’s
For mobile banking, go for the official app only and no third party app. Also, download the app only from the official app stores like the Apple’s App Store or Google’s Play Store. Never ever download any app from the ‘aggregator‘ apps, who may claim to show you the consolidated account views across banks, but ultimately would trap you with malware and end up stealing all your confidential information.

Avoid transactions with unknown sources
Avoid transferring any funds to any unknown or unvalidated source. Refrain from sharing your account details with any unknown source. The cyber criminals generally tend to send emails to lure innocent people with attractive offers and ask them to transfer some money. Well, next time be alert, or you might end up with no balance in your account.

Using Internet banking in public Wi-Fi network
We highly recommend avoiding using your Internet banking on any shared or unprotected Wi-Fi network unless it’s an extreme emergency. Even refrain from making any payment using your debit or credit card from any public Wi-Fi network. These networks can easily be hacked and one can steal all your credentials.

Failure to check if there is ‘s’ in the URL, https
Check the address bar, if the URL of the website you are logging into has ‘s’ there in the URL, i.e ‘https‘. It is the key security layer there which ensures that you are logging into a secure and encrypted website.

Failure to keep antivirus or anti-malware updated
When you are using a PC for Internet banking, the basic and critical need is to keep your antivirus updated. Though this does not guarantee 100 per cent protection, but still is much secure to safeguard your online transactions.

Check if there is padlock icon when you make transaction
Like the security layer ‘https‘, one other thing that you need to check is, if there is the padlock. You will get to see the padlock icon either on the top or at the bottom right corner of the webpage. This closed lock or the padlock ensures that the website on which you are making the transactions is secure.

Accessing Internet-banking account at cyber cafe or any shared computer
Like the public Wi-Fi networks, you should strictly avoid using your Internet banking on any public or shared computers. Most of these computers are unprotected and are malware ridden. Even there is added risk of the key loggers which can save all your information that you type on the computer.

What happens when you don't put your phone on airplane mode on an airplane, and you use the wifi?

Nothing bad happens on the plane…besides your phone's battery getting drained as it frantically tries to hop from tower to tower and fails to maintain a connection.

As Diarmaid Mac Aonghusa writes, we'd be totally screwed if something bad happened to modern aircraft just because somebody didn't switch on their airplane mode. Aircraft would have definitely suffered accidents—or intentional attacks—based on this if the electromagnetic radiation from standard cell technologies like GSM, CDMA, or LTE could interfere with modern navigation and safety systems.

The real reason that you are supposed to put your phone in "airplane mode" (from Mobile phones on aircraft):
In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) restricts cell phone usage on aircraft in order to prevent disruption to cellular towers on the ground. [7]

Basically, having a bunch of cell phones moving along at 500-600 mi/hr, constantly trying to connect and disconnect from ground-based cell towers many miles below them interferes with cell networks. Most cell networks* weren't designed for handsets moving at such a high speed and so far above the Earth's surface. It can apparently degrade the networks significantly.

* The exceptions, of course, are cell networks that are specially designed to provide in-flight connectivity, such as Gogo Inflight Internet:
Gogo's air-to-ground network is a cellular based network that has more than 160 towers in the continental U.S., Alaska and Canada. The towers are cellphone towers that have been outfitted to point their signals at the sky rather than along the ground.

Emmanuel Eboue loses life savings, properties to wife following bitter divorce

The name Emmanuel Eboue will not be quickly forgotten especially with Arsenal faithful as he was in the team that represented the club at the biggest stage of club football.

However, the sophisticated, flashy lifestyle usually associated with football players seem to have eluded him after he lost a divorce battle to his wife, Aurelie and got stripped of all his assets.

The Ivorian earned millions during his seven years in England’s top-flight and then more than £1.5million a year at Turkish side Galatasaray but now runs around hiding from cops and bailiffs after being ordered by a judge to transfer his remaining Enfield home to his wife.

“I can’t afford the money to continue to have any lawyer or barrister, Eboue told Mirror
“I am in the house but I am scared. Because I don’t know what time the police will come.

“Sometimes I shut off the lights because I don’t want people to know that I am inside. I put everything behind the door.
“My own house. I suffered to buy my house but I am now scared.

“I am not going to sell my clothes or sell what I have. I will fight until the end because it is not fair.”
Of the things bothering Eboue, his inability to see his three kids hurts him most
“I can’t see them and it is hurting me a lot,” he said.

“I was close to my children and ready to do everything for them.
“My two girls have a phone and used to call me. But now it has been two months with no contact.

“I miss my children a lot and I want to see them because it is not fair. It pains me a lot.”

Eboue was supposed to return to the Premier League with Sunderland but the deal fell through and his woes were compounded when he was banned for twelve months by FIFA. He blamed his misfortune on his wife and those who helped manage his finances saying they gave him bad advises.

“I look back and say ‘Emmanuel, you have been naive… why didn’t you think about that before?’ It is hard.
“Very, very hard. The money I earned, I sent it to my wife for our children.
“In Turkey I earned eight million euros. I sent seven million back home. Whatever she tells me to sign, I sign.

“She is my wife. The problems with FIFA were because of people advising me. People who are supposed to care. But it was because of them FIFA banned me.” he said.

Eboue now sleeps on a mattress in the living room floor of a confidante he calls his “sister” while hoping get a chance of working with former club Arsenal or players’ union the PFA.
