Posted in: , , ,

Boko Haram has been a thorn in the Nigerian polity since 2009, attacking police stations, schools, markets, with suicide bombings, kidnappings and mass shootings becoming very common in northern Nigeria. The highest toll since then was reported by international media to be from the attack on Baga more than a week ago.

After more than 9 days, and with bodies still reportedly out in the open, the Nigerian military has finally released a statement saying that from their own calculations, only about 150 people were killed in the attack.

Above are the four children of Martin Luther King Jr. with wife, Coretta Scott King. They are from left, Dexter Scott King, Rev. Bernice King, Martin Luther King III and Yolanda King.

This picture was taken at a church service in Atlanta in 2006, but now all is not well in the family as the children are currently embroiled in a legal battle over their father's Bible and Nobel Peace Prize. The sons want to sell the items to raise money for their father's estate needs. The first daughter wants to hold onto the artifacts for their mother's estate.

After seeing the SELMA Movie just a few days ago and marveling at the forgiveness that marked MLK's relationship with his wife, I find this petty squables among the children so saddening.

I realized how much I'd loved Jennifer Lopez in movies while I was watching the trailer to her new movie Boy Next Door with young hottie Ryan Guzman before we saw Selma over the weekend.

Jennifer Lopez sure knows how to heat up the big screen and I'll surely be seeing the movie when it comes out later this month. Until then, it was also nice seeing her so fashionably attired for the Golden Globes red carpet.
