•STAR TREK ACTOR DENIES KNOWING MAN WHO ACCUSES HIM OF ASSAULT IN 1981 •ACTOR RICHARD DREYFUSS DENIES CLAIM HE EXPOSED HIMSELF TO A WRITE The Star Trek actor and gay rights activist George Takei responded on Saturday to an accusation that he sexually assaulted a young actor nearly 40 years ago. The alleged event "simply did not occur", Takei said. On Friday, Scott R Brunton told the Hollywood Reporter that in 1981, when he was 23, he was invited into Takei's condo in Los Angeles. Brunton implied his drink may have been spiked, saying he passed out and awoke to find Takei trying to strip him and groping his genitals. "This happened a long time ago but I have never forgotten it," he said. The Reporter said "four longtime friends of Brunton" had said he confided to them about the alleged incident "years ago". On Saturday morning, Takei posted a series of statements on Twitter in which he denied knowing Brunton and said he was "shocked and b

One of the Commissioners robbed about three week ago at the Delta State Commissioners quarters, Joyce Ovarah, the commissioner in charge of Science and Technology has affirmed that there was robbery at the quarters. The affirmation of the robbery at the Commissioners quarters by Overah therefore put the Commissioner for Information, Patrick Ukah who earlier debunked reports of the robbery incompetent to manage information. Overah gave the revelation while speaking with our correspondent at the state police command shortly after joining the Commissioner OF Police, Zanna Ibrahim and others to officially inaugurate the Intruder Alarm and Public CCTV Monitory Centre at the radio room of the command. While noting that the installation of such gargets was proper to prevent criminal activities in and around one's apartment he said, "like what happened at the commissioners quarters where there was breaking and entering.

  The Rumor Of Hope   A daily devotion for January 30th   From your friends at  RayStedman.org     Read: Mark 16:1-8       Don't be alarmed,  he said.  You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you'  (Mark 16:6-7).       The words of the angel to these women contain the answer to all the skepticism of over twenty centuries. For the angel said some things to them that answer most of the claims that have ever been raised in questioning the actuality of the resurrection. The first thing the angel said was,  This Jesus of Nazareth, this One who was crucified, this same One whom you seek, has indeed risen from the dead.  Many of the attempts to explain this away say that the women went to the wrong tomb or that they found

I have been with the family for about two years now but as I write this, I am in tears because of what I have neem going through in the hands of my master who has turned me into his sex slave. I am an orphan and since I was 16-years-old, I have been struggling to fend for myself and my younger ones. I was brought from my hometown in the South-South to Lagos by an aunt who has been using me as her meal ticket. Instead of my aunt who had promised to either send me to school or make me learn a trade to fulfill her promises, she has been giving me out as a maid to different families while she collected my salaries with the promise of helping me save them. I got this new job after I was sent packing by my former employers who accused me of bringing thieves to rob their home. God knows I was innocent of the accusation but they would not listen to my explanations. They got me arrested, locked me up, charged me to a court and I was remanded in prison custody for three weeks before I was grante

Special Report  Senior International Correspondent: Clarissa Ward Executive Producer: Liza McGuirk Producers: Andy Segal, Barbara Arvanitidis and Margot Haddad ITH  his blue eyes, brown hair and beaming smile, young Michael Delefortrie looked every inch the angelic altar boy. But fast forward twenty years, and Michael had changed his name to Younnes, traded his Christian faith for Islam, and the sleepy Belgian suburb he’d grown up in for the front lines of ISIS’ war in Syria. Now, back in Belgium, he still expresses open support for the group’s warped ideology and says he wishes he could return to the group’s self-proclaimed Islamic State. “I regret coming back,” he told me. “I want to live under the caliphate.” Michael 'Younnes' Delefortrie Despite his shocking words, the most striking thing about the 28-year-old is how utterly unremarkable he appears. The first time we meet, in a café in the port city of Antwerp, he wears a hooded sweat
