MANASSEH’S FOLDER: The bitter truth Abraham Attah must hear!

Abraham Attah in the studio of Joy FM for an interview.

Dear Abraham Attah,

I bring you warm greetings from Ghana. I don’t know which part of the world you are right now and I cannot imagine which luxurious hotel is housing you at the moment. But I am happy to tell you that, back home, you are the most popular celebrity in Ghana right now. Your name is a household name. President John Dramani Mahama, has described you as a “positive positioning of the Ghana Brand.” And he is very right!

I want to use this opportunity to sincerely congratulate you on your enormous achievement. You first came to my notice when I read a very positive review about you on the internet. That was the first time I heard about the Beasts of No Nation movie. I am not a movie fan, but I was compelled to look for the film when you picked an international award last year. I was curious about what that movie was about and how Abraham Attah fared in it.

The Beasts of No Nation, in my candid view, was overrated. The production and the characters were great but the storyline is very poor. What, however, excited me was the quality you (Abraham Attah) and the other children in the movie exuded. Hearing that Beasts of No Nation is your first movie and the first time you acted convinced me beyond any reasonable doubt that you are very gifted. You will surely go places if you work hard and keep the few pieces of this advice I offer later in this letter. I am proud of you. And so are many Ghanaians.

In Ghana, you are celebrated in homes, offices, markets, classrooms, mainstream and on social media. I have lived in this country for three decades and my experience has taught me that there are two kinds of human beings that one must not say anything uncomplimentary about. They are the dead and people who are being celebrated. Ask Martin A.B.K. Amidu his experience when he took on Anas.

Yesterday, you wrote on instagram, “I know some of the radio presenters in Ghana are saying I gave a bad speech at the Independent Spirit Awards…”

A federal grand jury returned a five-count indictment against them and they have both been charged with forced labor, withholding documents, visa fraud, conspiracy to harbor and harboring an illegal alien.

The couple also have to forfeit their home in Katy, Texas.. Both Chudy Nsobundu and Sandra Nsobundu were accused of mentally and physically abusing the unpaid nanny who is also a Nigerian who lived in their home and was allowed to only eat leftovers, not wash her hair and work about 20 hours a day with no pay.
The woman was rescued on Oct. 10, 2015, following a tip to the National Human Trafficking Resource Center.

These psychological tricks can help you spend less time online

“22 of the Cutest Baby Animals,” the headline said. “You won’t believe number 11!”

Despite an impending deadline – not to mention my skepticism (how cute could they possibly be?) – I clicked on the story. I’m only human, after all. Yet this failure in self-regulation cost me at least half an hour of good work time – as have other clickbait headlines, bizarre images on my Twitter feed or arguments on Facebook.

The insidious, distracting suck of the Internet has become seemingly inescapable. Calling us from our pockets, lurking behind work documents, it’s merely a click away. Studies have shownthat each day we spend, on average, five and a half hours on digital media, and glance at our phones 221 times.

Meanwhile, the developers of websites and phone apps all exploit human behavioral tendencies, designing their products and sites in ways that attract our gaze – and retain it.Writing for Aeon, Michael Schulson points out:

Developers have staked their futures on methods to cultivate habits in users, in order to win as much of that attention as possible.

Given the Internet’s omnipresence and its various trappings, is it even possible to rein in our growing Internet consumption, which often comes at the expense of work, family or relationships?

Psychological research on persuasion and self-control suggests some possible strategies.

The director of the FBI just admitted that a 'mistake was made' with the San Bernardino shooter's iPhone

FBI Director James Comey admitted that a "mistake was made" with the San Bernardino investigation during a surprisingly contentious hearing held by the US House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.

Comey and the FBI are seeking to force Apple to build custom software to access encrypted data on a terrorist's iPhone.

New York Democrat Jerrold Nadler asked Comey about whether the San Bernardino iPhone had its iCloud password changed, preventing the device from backing up to accessible Apple servers. Comey was forced to admit that the password was changed at the FBI's request, and called it a "mistake."

It wasn't the only difficult question that Comey fielded on Monday.

SALMA HAYEK FURIOUS COPS SIDED WITH NEIGHBOR In Dog's Death

Salma Hayek was outraged when cops told her they would not take action against the neighbor who shot and killed her dog ...  we learned.

We broke the story ... police in Yelm, Washington closed out their investigation into the death of Salma's beloved 9-year-old dog Mozart, after concluding the dog had trespassed on the neighbor's property and was trying to attack his dogs. The neighbor shot Mozart with a pellet gun to scare him off.

Cops tell us Salma couldn't believe cops were letting her neighbor skate, insisting her dogs NEVER trespassed on the guy's land.  

Here's Salma's problem. Her caretaker is the one who walked the dogs everyday, and she fessed up to cops the dogs routinely moseyed onto the neighbor's property and got into it with his dogs.

It's unclear if Salma plans to press the issue, but we do know when cops first met with her after Mozart died, her lawyer was present.

Salma was determined to get to the bottom of Mozart's death ... we're told she had a necropsy performed.

Hillary Clinton takes a shot at Donald Trump in her Super Tuesday victory speech

Hillary Clinton took a swipe at Donald Trump and other Republican politicians during her victory speech after the Super Tuesday primary contests.

At the time of her speech, the Democratic presidential frontrunner was projected to win Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia.

Clinton repeated lines she's used before to emphasize how she differs from Trump, the Republican frontrunner.

"Instead of building walls, we're going to break down barriers and build ladders of opportunity and empowerment so every American can live up to his or her potential," Clinton said, in an implicit attack on Trump's calls to build a wall on the southern border of the US to prevent illegal immigration.

She also took a shot at Trump's campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again."

"We know we've got work to do. It's not to make America great again," Clinton said. "America never stopped being great. We have to make America whole ... and fill in what's been hollowed out."

Clinton also referenced the rhetoric from Republicans as a whole.

Horrors of an acid attack last a lifetime – and cases have doubled in a decade

Agony: Katie Piper had to endure more than 100 operations

Imagine looking in the mirror and not recognising your own face. And having to come to terms with the awful realisation that you’ve been stripped of your identity by the violent hatred of another person.

A sudden cold splash, then searing pain as burning skin begins to tear from your body.

Scarred for life – both physically and mentally – these are the horrors of an acid attack .

A life changed for ever.

The sentence for victims, such as TV presenter Katie Piper , is far greater than any that can be handed down to their attackers by a court.

These brutal attacks – originally associated with south Asia – have more than doubled in the UK over the past decade.

And now figures show last year more than 100 victims were hospitalised. But just why are such barbaric acts on the rise – especially as violent crime in general has been steadily dropping in recent years?

Google's self-driving car got in the first accident that was truly its fault, but it was going only 2 miles an hour

one of Google's self-driving cars hit a bus in Mountain View earlier this month, marking the first accident in which one of the company's robotic vehicles appears to be have been at fault.

While Google's self-driving cars have been in various fender benders over the years, the accidents have until now always been the fault of other drivers or of the human drivers who occasionally take control of the Google cars, according to the company's previous self-driving car reports.

But in this incident, which took place on Valentine's Day, the Google car hit the side of a public-transit bus — albeit very slowly.

While approaching the intersection of El Camino Real and Castro Street in Mountain View, the car stopped to avoid some sandbags around a storm drain. When it tried to merge back into the left lane, it struck trouble.
