A federal appeals court has rejected a copyright lawsuit over Marshmello’s 2018 smash hit “Happier,” ruling that the DJ’s accuser signed away any rights to his earlier song.

An electronic music producer named Arty claimed that “Happier” borrowed elements from his 2014 remix of OneRepublic’s “I Lived,” but a federal judge tossed out the case last year.

Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God spoke to his members about the danger of masturbation and how one can be free from it. According to NDEPO TV, he said he once heard a preacher say masturbation is not a sin because it is not committed in the body but outside the body.
