Could this be the next Zimmerman case?

In a case that bears some striking similarities to George Zimmerman’s, a 76-year-old Milwaukee man is set to stand trial this week in the 2012 shooting death of a 13-year-old boy he had accused of stealing from him, according to Yahoo News.

 

 The site reports the man confronted the teen, who lived next door with his mother, as he took out the trash.

The boy denied stealing the guns before being shot in the chest from near-point blank range, according to Yahoo News.

Kim Kardashian To Reveal Post-Baby Body On ‘Kris’!

  
Even though she can’t exercise yet, the new mom has been eager to get her pre-baby body back — and has major plans for her big reveal! Are YOU excited to see Kim’s new figure?

 

Kim Kardashian, 32, lost her signature curvy body when she was pregnant with her first child, North West, one month. But new mom has vowed to lose all of her baby weight as fast as possible, and can’t wait to debut her new figure to the world! 

Kim faced her fair share of tough criticism when she gained her baby weight while pregnant, with some reports claiming she had shot up to 200 pounds on her small 5-foot, 2-inch frame. But now that her baby girl has arrived, she is eager to get back in shape — and reveal her post-baby body on her mom’s Kris Jenner‘s daytime talk show Kris, according to Us Weekly.



“She wants to show up like Heidi Klum and have everyone marvel at how fast she lost the weight,” a source tells the magazine.

Even though Kim hasn’t been hitting the gym yet — she’s not allowed to work out until five weeks after welcoming her baby — she has shed nearly 20 pounds already by breastfeeding her baby girl, and watching what she eats.
“Kim is having no difficulty at all with breastfeeding and as a result, is losing weight easily. The weight is just melting off,” a source told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.

Luckily for the new mom, her boyfriend Kanye West, 35, loves her just how she is — and isn’t pressuring her into dropping the weight.

“He goes out of his way to tell Kim she’s beautiful,” an insider tells Us Weekly.

 

Our thieving politicians- Ade Bolaji!

Politicians in Nigeria are nothing but daredevil robbers. Imagine all the various allowances approved for themselves running into millions of naira every month. Crowning their dare-devilish robbery of the nation’s resources, members of the National Assembly approved for themselves what they called “Constituency project allowance.” 

Where in the world do legislators execute projects on behalf of the government with public funds? .....

We are practicing American system of democracy, do their counterparts in the US receive similar allowances? This is barefaced stealing of the nation’s resources; it must be stopped. The N100 billion must not be released. 

Enough is enough, all Nigerians are no fools.

-Ade Bolaji.

I add:

When our Politicians engage in thieving public funds due to selfishness and greed, what hope is there for the likes of the little girl in the picture below, who they are supposed to represent, to whom the resources is meant to take care of, in terms of good food, shelter, health, standard education and etc...etc?????



What agenda do you have in store for the millions of suffering and desiring Nigerian children out here, despite our abundant resources?

What future do you have in store for these one?

Russia Warned Over US Relationship- Snowden!

Washington has called for Edward Snowden to be returned to the US, after Russian President Vladimir Putin said the countries' relationship outweighed "squabbles" over information leaked by the whistleblower.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said the matter should not be allowed to damage connections between the US and Moscow, which he accused of providing Snowden with a "propaganda platform".

"He is not a human rights activist, he is not a dissident," Mr Carney said.

"He is accused of leaking classified information. For those reasons, he should be returned to the United States.

"We want to continue (the US-Russia) relationship unimpeded by this issue and we believe there is a way to move forward here that allows for Mr Snowden to return to the United States ... and for Russia to resolve this situation that they have been dealing with now for three weeks."

The former National Security Agency contractor has been stuck at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport since fleeing there from Hong Kong on June 23.

He faces espionage charges after leaking details of a massive US surveillance programme that has strained ties with Washington's allies. He also divulged information about the activities of British eavesdropping agency GCHQ.

His lawyer said on Monday that he had applied for temporary asylum in Russia.

Mr Putin has been quoted by the RIA Novosti news agency as saying: "Relations between states are much more important than squabbles surrounding the work of security services."

The Russian leader has described Mr Snowden as an "unwanted Christmas present".

"He arrived on our territory without an invitation. Russia was not his destination," he said.

"He was a transit passenger flying to other countries. The moment news arrived that he was in mid-air, our American partners actually blocked his further movement.

"In fact, the US itself scared other countries into denying entry to Snowden and actually trapped him on our territory. Such a present to us. Merry Christmas."

Jay-Z's Album Clocks Best Opening Week In Spotify History!

Jay-Z's Magna Carta Holy Grailwas already guaranteed to have the best opening week sales of any album in his career, thanks to Samsung’s decision to buy 1 million copies in advance.

Now the rapper can boast another best: the most first-week streams of any album in Spotify’s history.

The numbers are in, and Magna Carta clocked 14 million full album streams in the U.S. alone, easily topping recent record-setting releases from Mumford & Sons (8 million) and Daft Punk (9.5 million).

How much will that net Jay-Z? It’s hard to say without knowing his precise royalty rate and the breakdown of listeners on Spotify. For the music service’s paid tier, per-stream royalties are typically somewhere in the neighborhood of half a cent.

If all of Magna Carta‘s listeners came from that group, Jay-Z would have made about $1 million on Spotify spins this week. Given that the bulk were probably from the unpaid tier, his total is more likely in the low six figures.

That’s not much by his standards, but it could certainly translate into a bigger payday if even a sliver of that audience buys tickets to his stadium tour with Justin Timberlake.

Not that he needs the money, anyway–by FORBES’ latest estimate, Jay-Z’s net worth stands at $475 million.
