Photos: 8-year-old girl who lost her entire family just wants cards for Christmas Posted: 09 Dec 2015 12:53 PM PST In 2013, Safyre Terry lost her father and three siblings in an arson attack. She survived but only because her father shielded her from the fire with his body. She suffered burns on over 75% of her body. She has had multiple operations, over 50. Three months after the fire, she lost her right hand. And in March, she lost her left foot. Safyre still has problems with her mouth due to the scar tissue tightening up According to Buzzfeed, Safyre is still recovering, but has received the full support of the local community in her hometown of Schenectady, New York. This year her aunt Liz Dolder, who has sole custody of the 8-year-old, bought a tree to hang Christmas cards on. Safyre was excited to fill the tree with cards, but Dolder told her that it was "probably not going to happen" Seeing her disappointment, Dolder posted a request on facebook for people to send Safyre as many Christmas cards as possible. There has been positive response since the initial call few days ago. People as far away as Australia, South Africa, and Scotland have been eager to send cards to Safyre. |
We will replace Faleke as Kogi deputy governor-elect if the need arises- APC National Chairman says Posted: 09 Dec 2015 12:40 PM PST Chairman of APC, John Odigie-Oyegun, says the deputy governorship candidate of Prince Audu Abubakar will be replaced as deputy governor-elect should the need arise. Odigie-Oyegun said this while speaking to newsmen in Abuja, today December 9th. Faleke, who was the running mate to late Abubakar Audu in the November 21 gubernatorial elections in Kogi State, rejected the same position after the party replaced Audu with Alhaji Yayaha Bello, who was runner-up in the party's primaries. "On the Faleke issue, it is rather a straightforward and easy issue; we have replaced a governorship candidate. If the need arises and subject to what the law says, we will also get a deputy governorship candidate, but we will cross those bridges as they arise but they have not arisen yet."he saidReacting to a statement credited to Faleke that he will not be available for swearing-in on January 27, Odigie-Oyegun said "As a political party, we simply understand the frustration that emanated from the death of Abubakar Audu. However, it is normal for us to accommodate the immediate reactions coming from the people involved. They were at the gate of victory but the gate was shut in their faces because of the unfortunate death of their mentor, Abubakar Audu, who would have been our governor in the state. So, a lot of things which normally we would not have accepted happened but we have to accept them so long that everybody will simmer down as time pass by. Wielding the big stick in a situation like this might not be appropriate, but there will be a timeline to it, enough will be enough at a certain time."he said |

Floyd Mayweather reacts to Chrissy Teigen's tweet saying she hopes his pet tiger eats him Posted: 09 Dec 2015 11:54 AM PST Last week boxer Floyd Mayweather shared a photo of a rare and exotic tiger from India he said he received as a gift. A lot of people had something to say about it...PETA, Social Media users and of course, Chrissy Teigen who kinda suggested that she hopes Floyd gets eaten by his pet tiger..lol
In an interview with Fight Hype, Mayweather was asked about what Teigen said about him on Twitter. He claims not to know who she is. What he said after the cut... "The thing is I've never had anything negative to say about John Legend," he said. "I really don't even know what his wife does, whoever she may be. I've never seen John Legend's wife in my life. If I did, I probably just don't remember it. But the thing is this: I'm pretty sure she has a lot going on in her life, but you know, I'm something to talk about, so that can be something else. I am something to talk about. You see, when she spoke on me, she got her name in the public eye, so that's kind of cool of her. I said this many, many, many years ago. I'm not perfect, I can contradict myself, but I think that people spend too much time worried about what other people are doing." |

Donald Trump's Anti-Muslim plan disqualifies him from Presidency - White House Posted: 09 Dec 2015 07:39 AM PST The Republican front-runner on Monday released a statement calling for the U.S. to refuse entry of foreign Muslims. His proposal was met with widespread criticism, including from several candidates in his own party, and now White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest says such a statement disqualifies him from serving as the President of the United States Of America. "The fact is what Donald Trump said yesterday disqualifies him from serving as president," Josh Earnest said in Tuesday's press briefing. "For Republican candidates for president to stand by their pledge to support Mr. Trump, that in and of itself is disqualifying," Earnest said.Secretary of State John Kerry also rebuked Trump's comments. "I would simply say that nondiscrimination and equal treatment are a pillar of not just American values but of our immigration and our admission policies in this country and the State Department remains totally committed to treating all religions with respect and without discrimination," Kerry said during a press briefing in Paris. He added, "As I travel around the world, it is clear to me and how both our friends and our adversaries watch and listen to the discourse in the U.S., and I believe that comments such as those that we just heard are not constructive - and I would say that is putting it diplomatically." |
