Liberty Ross- I Want to Work it Out With My Cheating Hubby
We do not know which lawyer she hired, but the picture (above) was taken Tuesday in the lobby of a Century City office building in which a number of divorce lawyers practice -- including disso queen Laura Wasser.
Sources connected with the couplesay ... although Liberty has lawyered up, her end game is NOT divorce. In fact, Liberty and Rupert have already been to a marriage and family therapist. Our sources say, when they were together on Tuesday in Beverly Hill, they were coming out of an office building where they met with the psychologist.
Although Liberty is not wearing her wedding ring, we're told her goal is figuring out why Rupert cheated and getting some sort of assurance he views what he did as a terrible mistake that he won't repeat.
#By the way ... is Liberty hot or what?# ...Just Asking#!

According to NEMA, nine persons, who escaped death, but in critical condition were receiving treatment at the Garki General Hospital, Abuja. Eyewitnesses told Daily Sun that work on the collapsed building had been put on hold for many years.
They said the collapse of the building was imminent as there were cracks on its pillars.

LEADER of the Niger Delta
Peoples Volunteer Force, Alhaji Mujaheed Dokubo-Asari, on Monday

Conference.
He said the conference was the only
solution to the menace of the violent Islamist sect, Boko Haram, whose
members are currently executing a bombing campaign against military and
police facilities and churches especially in the northern states and
Abuja.
“Whether he likes it or not, Goodluck
Jonathan must convoke an SNC. There is a need for a national discourse
and dialogue. It is only an SNC that will solve the problem. The
solution to the Boko Haram crisis is to dissolve the government and
convoke an SNC,” Dokubo-Asari told journalists at the meeting with
youths of the Niger Delta in Abuja.
The ex-Niger Delta militant warned that
if the Boko Haram issue could lead to another civil war if not tackled
on time. He said the sect’s “arrogance” was unIslamic.
“The arrogance of Boko Haram is
un-Islamic. The level of bombs they are using is low. If we begin
throwing bombs, nobody will stay in Abuja,” the man who claimed to have
started arms struggle in the oil rich Niger Delta said.

After I had finished work at both events, at around 11:15pm there about I noticed that my car was not at the spot I had parked it on. I and the hotel security men combed the entire car park several times to be sure I did not forget where I had parked and still did not find my car.
BBA Stargame update: Tension as final 6 battle for $300,000 this Sunday
None of the trio of Nigeria’s Goldie, Chris and Ola were able to win the competition this time around after three successive winners have emerged from Nigeria; Kelvin Pam (2009), Uti Nwachukwu (2010) and Karen Igho (2011).
As the final day draws closer this Sunday, August 5, 2012, many believe that any of the six of the remaining housemates; Lady May, Kyle, Keagan, Talia, Prezzo and Wati can win the show. “It is now a game of luck,”
Prezzo and Lady May seem to be the favourite to win the competition. For some, Lady May is gradually taking the place of Goldie, after she was voted out of the house, as some Nigerians believe, courtesy Prezzo.
The housemates formation now has four East African countries and two Southern African countries. This means there is chance of any West African countries winning the competition this around also.
As the final day draws and nearer and the winner of the show is unveiled this Sunday, who among the last six standing; Lady May, Kyle, Keagan, Talia, Prezzo and Wati becomes 300,000 US dollars richer?
