Tribute To Lt. Kyom Leo: Young Soldier Killed Weeks Before His Wedding By Boko Haram
Lt. Kyom Leo was billed to marry his fiance Miss Angela Gaiya on Saturday the 30th of August, 2014 in Kaduna. The young army officer died fighting in a counter insurgency campaign against Boko Haram.
Now, one of my friends and favorite writers, Lulufa Vongtau, pens a tribute to his memory and to all those lost in the fight to contain Boko Haram in the North East of Nigeria.
Lulufa knew Leo as a child and was there as the young soldier was laid to rest on the 17th of July. Making his tribute more poignant is that Lulu also served in various capacities in Borno, when it was still peaceful.
Read his tribute below...
Blast From The Past - Jack Johnson And The History of Interracial Marriage in America
Jack Johnson was the first black heavyweight boxer of the world back in the early 1900's. He had three white wives, and refused to date a black woman. He was arrested and jailed for being with these white women and was recommended to be lynched for marrying them.
Johnson was married three times. All of his wives were white, a fact that caused considerable controversy at the time. In January 1911 Johnson married Etta Terry Duryea. A Brooklyn socialite, their romantic involvement was turbulent. Beaten several times by Johnson and suffering from depression, she committed suicide in September 1912.
Less than three months later, on 4 December 1912, Johnson married Lucille Cameron, a young prostitute. After Johnson married Cameron, two ministers in the South recommended that Johnson be lynched. Cameron divorced him in 1924 on the grounds of infidelity. The next year Johnson married Irene Pineau; also white.
Zoe Saldana is Pregnant! She and Husband Marco Perego Are Expecting First Child
Zoe Saldana has just confirmed she's pregnant and she and her husband Marco Perego are expecting their first child together.
Her publicist shared the news with The Hollywood Reporter earlier today. The couple got married secretly in June last year. I'd heard about the baby bump rumors but decided not to blog about it till Zoe and her husband were ready to share.
Zoe is currently promoting her new movie – Guardians Of The Galaxy, and with haing to step out on the red carpet along the way, I guess there was no way they could have kept the news quiet any more.
So happy for them!

This Breast and Vagina Underwear Shows How The Female Body Works. Will You Wear Them?
Eleanor Beth Haswell, an 18 year old British student/artist, made the anatomically correct underwear as part of her senior high school project called “Why Are You So Afraid Of Your Own Anatomy,” about the ways in which women are scared and uncomfortable with their own bodies.
The reaction to the underwear, which labels the various parts of the vulva and vagina, has, been sorta mixed. But it was mostly males commenting on Twitter, “Laughable”, “Something of a buzzkill” and finally, “I just can’t.”
But can you as a lady wear underwear like this if it ever goes mass market? See close-up shots below...
American Teenager Faces Life In Prison For Molesting Kenyan Children While On Mission Trip
19 year old Matthew Durham faces a possible life in prison sentence after authorities say they learned that he allegedly molested several children in an orpganage home while on an African mission trip.
According to KTLA5, the suspect was volunteering at a Kenyan children’s home when he allegedly raped and molested a number of young children.
Court records indicate that Matthew Durham confessed to raping several young girls, forcing some boys to perform oral sex on him and even making other kids watch.

Husband Beats Wife to Death With Hammer After Reading Her Text Message To Another Man
A man in the UK has been accused of battering his sleeping wife to death with a hammer last November, and then fleeing the country.
The 'possessive and controlling' husband, Danish Irfan, 22, hit his wife Ridda Zanab’s skull so hard that fragments of bone were forced into her brain, killing her within minutes.
The case is now in court, where a jury heard that the sustained attack, which involved at least 10 blows as his wife lay sleeping under a duvet, was sparked by the discovery of a text message she had sent to a man named Rob, which read: 'I luv yu, mwahhh, gud nyt.'
The 21-year-old victim had only given birth to the couple's daughter two months before her death. After the wife's death, the husband took the baby to his mother and told them his wife had abandoned them.
Jada Pinkett Smith Asks Niece Who Was Given Date-Rape Drug To Counsel Daughter Willow
Jada Pinkett Smith is raising awareness about sexual assault after both the very public #JusticeforJada campaign and her own niece's harrowing ordeal.
Smith participated in the #JusticeforJada advocacy earlier this month, when a story was made public about a 16-year-old Texan girl named Jada [her namesake], who was raped and further humiliated when photos showing her naked and unconscious went viral on social media.
"This could be you, me, or any woman or girl that we know," Smith wrote on Facebook at the time. "What do we plan to do about this ugly epidemic? #justiceforjada."
Now, Smith tells Us Weekly the issue hits far closer to home than she initially let on.
