      The Duchess of Sussex is supporting a new charity cookbook, which celebrates the power of cooking to bring people together. 'Together: Our Community Cookbook' showcases over 50 recipes from women whose community was affected by the Grenfell Tower fire.

MY THOUGHTS & PRAYERS ARE WITH THE FAMILY OF SAIFURA HUSSAINI AHMED KHORSA,WHO WAS ABDUCTED & KILLED BY BOKO HARAM.-SARAKI.#PRESS RELEASE.

-
Image
       My thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of Saifura Hussaini Ahmed Khorsa — the young 25-year old female international aid worker who was abducted and killed by Boko Haram. Such horrific actions have no place in Nigeria. I join all Nigerians and the international community in condemning this killing in the strongest possible terms. The killing of aid workers, who choose to go into troubled spots, both in Nigeria and around the world, represents a new low by  the insurgents, as humanitarian workers are some of the most courageous and selfless people on the planet. Additionally, the continued abduction of the late Saifura’s ICRC colleagues, Hauwa and Alice, by the militants, alongside the captivity of the young Dapchi schoolgirl, Leah Sharibu, must end. I call on our brave servicemen and women on the frontlines to do all that they can to protect the aid workers on the ground and employ every God-given resource that is availab...

NICOLE KIDMAN COVERS MARIE CLAIRE MAGAZINE,OCTOBER 2018 EDITION.{PHOTOS}.

        According to the magazine '' Nicole Kidman and her husband, the country music star Keith Urban, like to play a little game. Say they’re talking about a guitarist: “When I say to him, ‘What kind of guitarist is that person?’ we do this,” she says, patting her head, patting her heart, and then motioning ... downward. “Head, heart, or—” she cocks an eyebrow. “It’s a great way to describe different artists, right?". It is. And it also begs a question: What kind of artist is she? “Well, I always say I’m a pretty even mix, but I’m probably dominated by that,” she says, with one hand over her heart. “If you don’t come from a feeling place, you just end up with an enormous amount of technique. “I have this,” she says, tapping her head again, “but that can be overruled. It fluctuates too. I have a strong sexuality. It’s a huge part of who I am and my existence." Anyone who has seen Kidman in HBO’s hit series  Big Little Lies  has witnessed all three ...
