Photos: Kim Kardashian FINALLY gets her official divorce from Kris Humphries

During a court hearing in Los Angeles on Monday night a judgement was entered officially bringing the disastrous marriage between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries to an end....FINALLY!

Not long to go: Kim Kardashian shows off her bump in a floor-length white dress in a Twitter picture, the day her divorce is granted from Kris Humphries

 

Kim can now move on, which with her first baby due in around a month's time couldn't be better timing.
Kim made no mention of the divorce on her blog, instead posting a photo of herself in her outfit for her baby shower, which took place in Beverly Hills at the weekend.
'Sunday’s Lanvin Look!' she wrote, showing off her bump in the flattering loose long-sleeved gown.

Following her separation Kim began dating pop star Kanye West, quickly falling pregnant with a baby girl, believed to be due in July.

FINALLY over: Kim and her now ex-husband Kris Humphries, seen in October 2011, are officially divorced

 

She has spoken of the stress of negotiating a divorce while pregnant, admitting she was worried Kanye's baby would be born while she remained married to another man.
The divorce comes more than a year after Kim called a halt to the marriage after just 72-days.

Basketball star Kris initially refused to agree to a divorce, instead insisting that the marriage be annulled because it was' fraud'.

All over: Extracts from the divorce papers show both Kim and Kris's signatures, right

He claimed Kim faked her love for him to increase ratings for her reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, on which their romance featured prominently.
The judgement, reported on People.com, followed long negotiations between the pair's lawyers, which finally led to them reaching a settlement in April.
While the terms of the settlement are not known the pair did sign a prenuptial agreement, detailing their financial obligations in the case of a split.

Enjoying her last few weeks of freedom: Kim celebrated her divorce with a trip to the exclusive Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hilton for lunch with fiends on Tuesday

Do Mosquitoes 'Like' Some People More Than Others? Find Out Why You Are A Mosquito Magnet

"One in 10 people are highly attractive to mosquitoes," Jerry Butler, Ph.D., professor emeritus at the University of Florida, told WebMD. Another estimate from the research suggests that 20 percent -- or one in five people -- are mosquito magnets.


It is definitely true that some people are more attractive to the pesky insects than others, but the reasonwhy remains a bit of a mystery. There are a number of myths out there, including the assertion that mosquitoes prefer blondes. In reality, mosquito preference doesn't seem to have anything to do with hair color, blood sugar levels, floral perfumes or many of the other factors we've heard rumors about.


First of all, sometimes it's not you -- it's them. "Different species have different cues for being attracted," says Janet McAllister, Ph.D., an entomologist in the Division of Vector-Born Diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. While scientists don't know exactly what attracts female mosquitoes to some and not others -- it's worth noting that male mosquitoes don't feed on human blood -- there are some observed patterns. Here are a few signs you might be a prime target for the 'skeets:


You're Big -Bigger people produce more carbon dioxide and if there's one thing that will lure a mosquito from a great distance, it's a big cloud of CO2. This is why adults tend to get bitten more than children and why men are more likely to be a feeding site than their female companions.

You Just Exercised -Mosquitoes find lactic acid alluring and if you've just worked out, chances are you've got some building up in your muscles. What's more, the exertion could cause heavier and quicker breathing, another way to build up some carbon dioxide around you.

You Have A Fast Metabolism- Mosquitoes enjoy a bit of cholesterol in their meals. People who metabolize cholesterol quickly -- not those who have higher cholesterol blood levels -- may attract mosquitoes because byproducts of that metabolization are present on the skin, reported WebMD.

You Smell - To Them Acetone and estradiol released in your breath and many of the compounds and bacteria found on your skin contribute to your attractiveness. Scientists believe that some people may give off stronger scents than others, even though everyone produces these compounds.Reported NBC:

It could be that individuals who get less bites produce chemicals on their skin that make them more repellant and cover up smells that mosquitoes find attractive.

What we do know is that there isn't much you can do about it -- besides using an EPA-approved mosquito repellant and covering up.

Self-Proclaimed Nazi turns up at court in full Nazi regalia to fight for custody of his children – including one who he named Adolf Hitler!

A white supremacist appeared at court on Monday dressed in full Nazi uniform as he tried to convince a judge that he was a good father - despite having named one of his children Adolf.
Heath Campbell, who had four children, asked the judge to be allowed to see his 18-month-old son Hons.
The self-proclaimed Nazi, from New Jersey, has given three of his children Nazi-inspired names but claims he is fit to be a father and has never abused them.

Fascist statement: Heath Campbell, 40, appeared at a New Jersey court today to try to reclaim custody of his children, wearing full Nazi regalia and accompanied by fellow Nazi Bethanie White

Full regalia: Heath Campbell, appeared at a New Jersey court on Monday, in a Nazi outfit to convince a judge that he was a good father and should have custody of his children

 

Campbell, a swastika tattoo clearly showing on his neck, told NBC10: 'I'm going to tell the judge, I love my children. I wanna be a father, let me be it.
'Let me prove to the world that I am a good father.'
He said that he had never abused his children and had only named them. He has not seen his children in two years and the eldest three have been adopted.  The 40-year-old white supremacist appeared at a hearing in Hunterdon County Family Court in Flemington, NJ this morning. His regalia included knee-high black boots and swastika patches.
He told the TV station that whether wearing his Nazi uniform might sway the judge's decision, depended on the judge.

Ordeal: Heath and Deborah Campbell, pictured with son that they named Adolf Hitler, The couple have since separated

Rescued: Adolf Hitler, right, and his sister Aryan Nation were taken into custody in 2009 and have since been adopted

 

Bethanie White, a member of his organization 'Hitler's Order', was with Campbell at court - also covered in swastikas.
Adolf Hitler Campbell, six, and his younger sisters Joycelynn Aryan Nation, five, and Honszlynn Hinler, four, were taken into custody in January 2009.
State officials also took another son, Hons Campbell, from his parents Heath and Deborah Campbell just hours after he was born in November 2011.
A court denied the Campbells' appeal to have their children returned last year.

Pleas: White supremacist Campbell, his swastika tattoo on show,said that he wanted to show the world he could be a good father

Controversial: Campbell, who has his own neo-Nazi organization, walks into court with a supporter wearing knee-high boots and a swastika arm band

 

The Nazi-inspired names came to light after a store refused to decorate a birthday cake reading 'Happy birthday Adolf Hitler' in December 2008.
In 2010, a New Jersey appeals court ruled there was sufficient evidence of abuse or neglect due to prior domestic violence to seize the children.
Authorities insisted putting the children into care had nothing to do with their names.
Court records from previous hearings show that the oldest child, Adolf, frequently threatened to kill people.
The mother reportedly had also once given a note to her neighbor saying she was terrified of her husband, who had threatened to kill her.

Decisions: The Campbells, pictured leaving court in 2009, said they chose the names as they were unique

The Campbells have previously defended the names, saying they chose them simply because they liked them and they were unique.
Campbell said he named his son after the Nazi leader as 'no one else in the world would have that name'.
Campbell has since separated from his wife and she has given up rights to her children.
A follow-up hearing has been scheduled for later this month.

Obama must see Africa in new light

BY JESSE JACKSON jjackson@rainbowpush.org June 3, 2013 8:48PM

When President Obama and the first lady travel to Africa at the end of this month, they will receive a rapturous greeting. The president’s deep roots in Kenya, the land of his father, resonate throughout the continent. His success in the United States evokes pride and joy in Africa.

I write this from Nigeria, a country that has just celebrated its 14th year of democracy. President Obama’s election enabled Africans to see America in a new light. I hope his visit will enable Americans to see Africa with new eyes.

We know the problems of Africa: its poverty, corruption and conflict. After 246 years of the slave trade, 100 years of colonialism, African suffering and struggle are known. But perhaps the president’s visit will enable us to see the possibilities.

Africa is the second-largest continent in the world, larger than China, the United States and Europe combined in land area. Its peoples number about one-eighth of the world’s population. It is a richly endowed continent, providing some 22 percent of the world’s gold, 55 percent of its diamonds, and 12.5 percent of its oil. Seven of the 10 fastest-growing economies in the world are in sub-Saharan Africa. It is still marked by poverty, but extreme poverty has been declining at about 1 percent a year.

Nigeria has twice the population of any other African country. It is growing at 7 percent a year, and will be Africa’s largest economy within the decade. It is a major supplier of oil to the U.S., and potentially a major trading partner. Nigeria’s GDP is three times that of any other West African country. It is the largest destination for foreign direct investment on the continent. It sends 7,100 students to the U.S. for university programs. Its democracy is taking root. The sun is rising in this land of potential.

Nigeria still has deep challenges to overcome. Its infrastructure is outmoded; its health care and education systems inadequate; corruption remains a curse, and 60 percent of the population remains below the poverty line. Like many African countries, it struggles with an exodus of professionals.

The president will visit Senegal, Tanzania and South Africa with a large delegation of business leaders and investors. Tanzania and Senegal are among the fastest-growing economies on the continent. The U.S. is not the only country interested in these new possibilities. The president will arrive in Tanzania three months after Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit. Americans will get a new understanding of how aggressively China has reached out to Africa, providing aid, investments and securing supplies of oil and other raw materials. For economic, national security and humanitarian concerns, America has every reason to open up closer ties with the nations on that continent.

Independent Africa is still young. It was only 57 years ago when Kwame Nkrumah founded Ghana, its first independent nation. Now there are young, growing democracies, moving from the struggle for independence to the struggle for legitimate governance and economic development. Think of the United States 50 years after its historic revolution. Our institutions were still being formed; we were still trading in slaves, denying women equal rights, headed toward a violent civil war.

Democracy and development are roads with twists and turns. In Africa, as the president’s visit will expose, the turns are now positive. We would be well advised to contribute to the progress, to invest in the promise, and to bolster the push for human rights, development and democracy.
