Is Johnny Depp Attempting Reconciliation with Vanessa Paradis?

Just last month, the couple with two children, ages 13 and 9 announced their separation after 14 years together, but it looks like there is a reconciliation in the works.

According to The Sun
The actor has flown to his ex, Vanessa Paradis in the South of France to try to patch up their relationship. 
The Pirates of the Caribbean star gave the model an antique gold pendant bearing the message “My heart is always with you.” 
A source said: “They are having a family holiday to show the kids they are still a strong family even if those two are split or not. But the fact he presented her with such a touching gift, it’s almost as if they could make another go of things. Johnny wants to be with his family, he’s a very family orientated man. His kids mean everything to him.
“What they need more than anything is to get together far away from Hollywood and that is what they are doing.”
I really wish they get back together and seal it with marriage.

Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State on Friday inaugurated Patience, the wife of President Goodluck Jonathan, as a Permanent Secretary in the state.

Mrs. Jonathan was sworn-in alongside 18 other persons amidst tight security in a ceremony that was held at the Banquet Hall in Yenagoa, the state capital.

At the ceremony, Dickson insisted that he had “done nothing wring and illegal” and that Mrs. Jonathan merited the post. Unlike the other permanent secretaries, Dickson did not announce a portfolio for her, saying it would be done at a later date. Many Nigerians, including opposition politicians have condemned the appointment in strong terms.

Frank Oputu, state chair of the Conference of Nigerian Political Parties said the “appointment greased with the oil of corruption” as the woman lacks the credentials to merit the appointment.

A permanent secretary heads a ministry and is the accounting officer.

Rest in Peace: Usher's 11-year-old Stepson Kyle Glover Dies


Less than a month after Usher's stepson Kile Glover was declared brain dead after a brutal jet ski accident on July 8, Glover has passed away. 
The 11-year-old died Saturday morning after being taken off of life support.
The mother of Glover, Tameka Foster, allegedly made the tough decision after being told that a full recovery was not likely. She is also said to have been unable to pay the medical bills required to keep her son on life support, after the family's insurance company coverage expired.
This is so sad, may the good lord comfort Tameka and the entire family for their loss. 
Rest in Peace Kile.

At least 14 people were killed and 50 wounded when a masked gunman opened fire during an early Friday morning screening of the new Batman movie "The Dark Knight Rises"  at an Aurora, Colorado, Theater.

Police, ambulances and emergency crews swarmed on the Aurora, Colo., theater after frantic 911 calls around 12:30 a.m. local time.

And as for her relationship with Prezzo, she said;

‘I am an extra emotional person and as for Prezzo, I came to care for him very much. What I saw was that he was a calm person and what I saw was a calm person and he appeared intelligent. You had the option of 50 cameras, I had only two eyes and two ears and I believed in what I saw’, she concluded.
