MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (Reuters) - Suspected Boko Haram suicide bombers killed 12 people and injured 48 others in an attack on Wednesday on the northeastern Nigerian city of Maiduguri, officials from the State Emergency Management Agency for Borno said.
Two bombers struck the Muna Garage area on the outskirts of Maiduguri, the epicentre of the conflict with the Islamist insurgency, late on Wednesday afternoon, said the officials.
Muna Garage is the site of a camp for displaced people and a frequent target of Boko Haram attacks.

Are you sure?
This action might not be possible to undo. Are you sure you want to continue?
Recovering from a near fatal accident, artist Finn Barret returns to Seal Island in Maine to rest and recuperate. But Seal Island is haunted with memories, some sweet, some sad; three years ago Finn found his lover in the arms of Fitch, Finn's twin brother. Since that day, Finn has seen neither Conlan nor Fitch. In fact, no one has seen Fitch.
What happened to him? Did Fitch run away, as everyone believes? Or did he meet a more sinister fate? To put the past to rest - and see if there's any chance of a future with Con - Finn must discover the truth. But the deeper he digs, the more reason he has to fear Con is the only one who knows what truly happened to Fitch...
If he had been painting the scene before him, he would have used only four colors: Permanent Rose alkyd for the pink streaks in the fading sunset and the reflections in the water; Dioxazine Purple alkyd for the shadows lengthening on the creamy sand, the crevices of the rocks, the glint and gleam of water, the edges of the pier; Cadmium Yellow alkyd to blaze from windows, for the dimples in the sand, to limn the rocks, to gild the tips of scrubby, windblown grass, more reflections in the water; Indigo oil for the tumbling waves, for the indistinct forms of the buildings beyond, for the swift coming night.
For the first time in weeks, Finn felt the desire to take a palette knife and mix color, to pick up a brush and try to capture what he saw. For the first time in weeks, he felt a flicker of something close to interest, to emotion.
Maybe it was the salt air, maybe it was the cold — the briny wind whipping off the ocean stung his face — maybe it was the smell of wood smoke with all the warm memories it conjured. Or the cries of the gulls, the slap of the waves, the mingled fragrance of pipe smoke and car exhaust as he waited in the old station wagon for Hiram to carry his bags from the dock. Maybe it was all these things.
But it was the color he felt most intensely. Luminous color seeping into his consciousness, the hues and values, the shadows and lights, the dull tones, the vibrant — he was waking up. It was not a comfortable process, and Finn huddled deeper into his leather jacket.
Hiram strode to the car and threw Finn's bags in the back. Coming around to the front, he climbed in behind the wheel. Starting the engine, he glanced briefly at Finn as he backed the car, narrowly missing a leaning tower of stacked lobster traps.
Guess it looks pretty different after all this time?
Seal Island didn't look different at all in the purple dusk, but Finn said,
Three years is a long time.
Ay-yup, Hiram said.
Your uncle Thomas is going to be happy as a clam at high tide to see you.
Finn's smile twisted. Everyone was being very kind. Especially considering what a pain in the ass he was to show up with almost no warning.
The station wagon crunched its way slowly over sand and shale, past the shadowy buildings and boats, the faded, peeling signs.
'Course Thomas is in France right now. Some art show or another.
Finn murmured something. He didn't need to say anything. Hiram was happy to fill in all the blanks. There were a lot of blanks after so long.
Martha's arthritis is giving her heck. Well, we're all gettin' older. Mr. Peabody's gone now. Pneumonia. Last month. Miz Landy took over the general store.
The car reached the surfaced road that ran around the island — smoother in some places than others. By now the amethyst dusk was falling back before the onslaught of night. Finn felt tension growing inside, his stomach knotting up with his fists. It was irrational. Irritating. Fear of the dark? At his age? It was cold, though — bitingly. After a short battle with himself, he reached for the rough plaid car blanket that smelled of a million journeys and spread it over his left leg, which had started aching.
Not used to the cold anymore, he muttered, but Hiram took no notice, still palavering about people and things Finn had stopped caring about — tried to stop caring about — a long time ago. Ay-yup, what a pleasant surprise — shock, translated Finn — it had been to hear from Finn. Martha had been in a twitter ever since she got his message. And what a surprise Thomas had waiting for him when he got home. What a surprise it was going to be for everyone.
Finn almost asked then. But it was too much effort, and he wasn't sure even now he could take the answer, so he smiled politely and stared out the window as though he had newly arrived from another planet, which was pretty much how it felt.
Stands of pine trees stood stark and sharp against the dusk as the car climbed slowly, winding up through the rolling hills. The pines looked black against the lowering sky, but that was an illusion. He'd start with a sketch, using a No. 0 watercolor brush. For the sky and water, he'd use a blend of Cadmium Yellow Medium, Cadmium Red Light, and Titanium White. For the upper sky, he'd choose French Ultramarine, Dioxazine Purple and more Titanium White…
White. He had a sudden recollection of blazing white walls and the sun bouncing off pale sand — too much light, and a brightness that hurt the eyes. The white beneath a silent gull's wingspan, the white of the craggy clouds, the white of the tiny wildflowers growing beside the white speckled stone walls.
The lighthouse was on the other side of the island. No need to see it at all if he didn't choose to — and why the hell would he ever want to see it again?
Hiram was saying,
Miz Estelle won first prize at Union Fair for her wild blueberry sour cream cake.
Finn felt an unexpected twinge of hunger.
I still remember those cinnamon-sugar biscuits she used to make.
The old man nodded in heartfelt agreement.
The car turned off the main road and ground its way up the steep last stretch. The house was called The Birches. One of those charming turn-of-the-century, ten-bedroom
cottages, it stood in a grove of white birches overlooking Otter Cove. Green lawns swept down to the rocks at the water's edge, ancient, gently tilting pines framed sunsets so beautiful they made the heart ache. In the failing light, the house looked eerily untouched by time.
Hiram pulled up in front of the long front porch. Lights shone welcomingly from several downstairs windows.
Ain't no place like home, he said, and Finn made a sound in his throat that was supposed to be humor but wasn't.
Hiram got out of the car. The front door of the house flew open, and Martha came bustling down the shell-strewn path as Finn climbed carefully out of the station wagon. Tears glittered on Martha's wrinkled cheeks, and she hugged him tight, pulling him to her ample bosom like he was a child again.
Look at you, you young rascal!
Finn didn't have to do much more than smile and permit himself to be hugged again; Martha was doing all the talking — although afterward he had no idea of anything she'd said. He was literally overwhelmed with memories and unwelcome emotion.
Hiram went to get the bags, and Finn was being urged inside the house to warmth and comfort — the prodigal returned. By then he was exhausted. He should have brought the cane; he was hobbling badly, not used to walking any distance yet, and the plane flight and boat ride not helping any. Maybe he was more crocked up than he wanted to admit — he was certainly in more pain.
The house smelled familiar. It smelled of baking and wood fire — and the invariable ghostly hint of oil paint, although it had been decades since anyone in the house painted with oils. It smelled like his childhood: safe and warm and loved. He stared curiously as he was hustled past a familiar painted chest, wing chairs upholstered in pale gray roses, white bookcases, well-remembered paintings. It felt odd to see these things again — like he was visiting a museum.
Ushered into the kitchen, he was ensconced in the old rocker and ordered to stay put near the enormous gas stove where Martha had cooked breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the Barrets for the past thirty years. That suited him fine. Gave him a chance to catch his breath and get control of himself.
Martha and Hiram conferred outside briefly — he could imagine how that went — and then Martha was inside the kitchen and chattering a mile a minute, banging pots and pans around to relieve her feelings.
Finn eyed her curiously from the perspective of his years away. She was in her late sixties now, a small, very plump woman with silky white hair — it had been white since her early thirties — and soft dark eyes. Something about her had always reminded him of a dove, though doves were fairly stupid birds and Martha was a far-from-stupid woman.
Now that you've been living in New York, I suppose you won't be happy with fiddleheads and potatoes anymore? It'll be fancy curries and nouveau cuisine you're used to, I reckon.
Finn laughed — he lived on peanut butter sandwiches half the time — and said,
I haven't had a decent bowl of chowdah since I left here.
She stopped chattering then, coming to him, putting her hands on either side of his head. She turned his face to the light, examining him closely. The only damage that showed was the one scar — still healing — on his temple. What didn't show was the horrific long gash from his hip to the middle of his calf. Torn muscles, damaged nerves, but oddly no broken bones. He had been left with one hell of an ugly seam down his leg, but he knew how lucky he had been. And aside from the scars, he was going to be as good as new eventually. That was why he had to stop dwelling on the might-have-beens. The close call didn't matter, because he was going to be all right — as soon as the headaches stopped.
Martha was staring into his eyes as though trying to read his mind. He blinked up at her, and her eyes filled with tears again. She kissed him — something he couldn't remember her doing since he had been very small. She was clearly horrified at herself. Not as horrified as he was, though — not that she had kissed him, but that he had been so moved, his throat closed and he had to look away.
It was only for an instant. Nothing more than the aftermath of the accident — and probably his meds. It did something to you, nearly dying. And dying sometimes felt like the least of it.
Your uncle Thomas will be here tonight, she said.
That snapped him out of his self-consciousness.
Uncle Tom? I thought…
Why, I phoned him the minute I heard from you, Martha said a little defiantly — because Finn had expressly told her not to bother Thomas.
Of course he'd want to know! Of course he's coming home. And while I'm thinking of it, that friend of yours phoned up. Mr. Ryder. He's coming day after tomorrow.
The funny thing about the spell the island cast, the silken weave of childhood memories, was that he'd already forgotten he'd asked Paul to come along and lend moral support. Now he wondered why. Paul was going to be a fish out of water here, and Finn was going to have to expend energy he didn't have in trying

Maruti Suzuki Dzire Review
The third generation Maruti Suzuki Dzire is officially revealed after much anticipation. With the next-generation model, the design has become more contemporary with improved features and performance. This model will also offer AMT across a wider number of variants. The Swift moniker has been dropped to help bring about a bigger differentiation between the Swift hatchback and the compact sedan.
The front is worked, where the Dzire gets a face similar to that of the Ciaz thanks to the chrome inserts around the grille and fog lamp housing. The styling of the front bumpers and headlamps is towards the sporty side. This time around, the side profile, despite being confined to the rules of the sub-four metre category, looks more cohesive than the outgoing model. The rear gets new design for the tail lamps with LED inserts for the indicators with chrome accents.
The interior, too, gets a new design for the dash, better quality plastics and soft touch materials. This car also has a flat bottom steering wheel with a wood insert, rear AC vents and a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto/Mirror Link. Its dimensions have also increased by in terms of height and width. The car is now 40mm wider and has 20mm longer wheelbase, thus affording more space inside the cabin, especially at the rear.
Engine & Transmission
The next-gen Dzire moves to a new lightweight Heartect platform which has helped it shed close to 105kgs as compared to the outgoing model and this aids in performance and fuel efficiency. The power train options have been carried over from the current car where the petrol option is the 1.2-litre K-Series engine producing 83bhp/114Nm while the diesel is the 1.3-litre Multijet producing 75bhp/190Nm. Both engines can be had with a five-speed manual or a five-speed AMT from the VXi/VDi variant onwards.
The 1248 cc Diesel - powered variant delivers a fuel economy of 26 kmpl in city and 28 kmpl on highways, while the Petrol variant offers a mileage of 21 kmpl on urban roads and 22 kmpl on freeways, respectively.

2017 Maruti Suzuki Dzire Petrol First Drive Review Read All Reviews
The Swift Dzire is a household name in India. Everyone knows it and everyone wants it. And that has made the Swift Dzire one of highest selling cars in India. The brand recall of this vehicle is so strong that Maruti decided to drop the 'Swift' moniker for its successor and give it its own identity - the Dzire.
The 2017 Dzire has improved in all....
While the styling is from the Swift hatchback, a lot of effort has been put to make the Dzire look like a proper sedan. The fascia and the presence of a large blacked-out grille gives a very unique character. The thin chrome strip around the grille add to the overall appeal. The swept-back headlamp unit which houses the projector headlamp looks p.... Read More
