Behind The Prevalence of Baby Factories in Nigeria

Babies rescued from a baby factory in 2011 - Vanguard

I started this post with the brief thoughts I shared about this news that another "baby factory" has been found so soon after a previous one was raided. I honestly feel that those taboos/stigmas I listed there have no place in a 21st century world. They may have worked in the past where the mass media was a word yet to be coined, or where most women got married before 15, not any more.

Beyonce Sings Back To Black For The Great Gatsby Soundtrack

If there was one song I will never forget Amy Winehouse for, it is Back to Black. She has other classics that I love just as well, but the sadness of Back to Black just calls to that deep place that many of us never allow ourselves to get to.

What's That Look On Your Face?

Lana Del Ray - Young and Beautiful (The Great Gatsby Version)

It is not often that I see a movie that moves me as deeply as The Great Gatsby. It is not a tear jerker by any means but if one is minded it could be a weepie. After you've left the cinema. There is a depth beyond the glitz and glamor of the movie. It was that depth I think Baz Luhrmann wanted us to plumb in his version of the doomed love story contained in The Great Gatsby. That man is a genius. I simply love his mind.

And Lana Del Rey, who I don't think I've heard of before now nailed it in the lyrics, music and performance of Young and Beautiful.
