Duggar Family Forms Pro-Life Coalition to Fight "Abortion Holocaust"
Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar of the popular TLC series 19 Kids and Counting are forming a coalition of pro-life groups to help fight against abortion.
The idea stems from their recent trip to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC; to the Duggars, abortion is itself a holocaust.
“A couple of weeks after we went to the Holocaust Museum it dawned on us that there is a holocaust taking place right here in America!” the Duggars wrote.
“More than 56 million lives have been destroyed in our country! That is over 4,000 babies being killed and 4,000 women being

Halle Berry won a battle in court today with ex Gabriel Aubry. But, as this custody battle rages on, it’s clear who the real loser will be: three-year old Nahla.
Sources tell TMZ the former couple was in front of a judge because Berry will be leaving to film a movie in Europe and there was an issue over which parent gets to spend time with his/her daughter when Halle is working.
Berry won this round, meaning Nahla will be accompanying her mom overseas.
The issue is unrelated to a larger problem Berry has brought up to the court, however. She alleges that Aubry has imperiled the safety of

But this 17-year old has a simple message in the following video: resist. For your own safety and for the safety of those around you, do not do it.

The jailhouse video shows Anthony reacting to news reports that a child’s body had been found in a swampy area near the family’s Florida property.
The tape reportedly shows Casey doubled over and hyperventilating when Orange County jail officials reveal that a body was found near the home.

Chelsea Kane, a.k.a. the Disney dark horse, was right behind them with 64. She and Mark Ballas have been low fliers this season, but have a real shot to win.
