EXCLUSIVE! David Eason's Baby Mama Backs Down: Former 'Teen Mom 2' Star Will Keep Custody Of His Son
March 23, 2018 by The Ashley
"Add another kid to the heap!"
Score another victory for Jenelle Evans and her husband David Eason!
The Ashley has learned that David was victorious in his quest to keep custody of his son, Kaden, despite Kaden's mom, Olivia Leedham, filing emergency court papers last month in an attempt to keep the boy away from David and "The Land."
The Ashley can exclusively report that Olivia has closed her case in the New Hanover County, North Carolina, court and plans to comply with the custody order in place.
(In the custody papers she filed last month, she claimed that David was exhibiting "erratic and concerning behavior" and that she was scared to send Kaden to "The Land" to be cared for by David and Jenelle.
An insider close to David's second baby-mama tells The Ashley that it basically came down to cold hard cash.
"She doesn't have the money to go to court and fight [David and Jenelle] in court," the insider tells The Ashley. "She cancelled the scheduled mediation and court dates and is going to follow the schedule that was in place before she filed [the emergency custody papers] in February."
The insider tells The Ashley that Kaden has been on "The Land" visiting in recent weeks, getting to know his stepsiblings Jace and Kaiser, and half-siblings Ensley and Maryssa, but starting next week, David will be allowed to have Kaden for the whole weekend.
"David will get to have him for overnights which hasn't happened before," the source said. "The original rules will stay in place, and Kaden will not be filmed for 'Teen Mom 2.'
As The Ashley previously reported, David's relationship with his son (who is four) has been strained since the boy's birth. Olivia obtained sole legal and physical custody of Kaden after David was found guilty of having committed domestic violence against Olivia while she was pregnant with their son.
"[David] endangered the life of the child by pushing [Olivia] when she was eight months pregnant and leaving her in the middle of the road at night when she was seven months pregnant," the court papers from the incident stated. Olivia filed a restraining order, and David was not allowed to have contact with her or Kaden after that. In March 2016, David was arrested for approaching Kaden in a grocery store and violating the restraining order.
In February 2017, The Ashley broke the news that Olivia had a change of heart and was allowing Kaden to visit David occasionally. Things came to a head last month, though, when David was fired from 'Teen Mom 2' after going on a homophobic Twitter rant. That incident, among others, caused Olivia to file the emergency court papers.
"[Olivia] and her family are worried still," the source added. "Right now it's all new and a novelty for Jenelle and David to have him there, but it's too soon to say if things will stay all happy and fun."

I would love for MTV to do an interview with David's ex.
Juicy B says:
All of these kids with different baby mamas and baby daddies!!! How do these two nasty trolls find that many people that will sleep with them??!!!!!!!! YUCK
I know this is way O/T, but I just saw the pic of Janelle with a gun that she posted the just hours on the same day as the Florida school shootings. Does anyone know if that is David's gun? I really think he could hurt Janelle. I know he had a knife a one of the reunions.
I wish MTV would give Kaden's the mother the money for a lawyer. You can't tell me those producers/production assistants have not witnessed the abuse against poor Kaiser. They surely can see it is an volatile environment.
MyHeathenbitchOvADaughter says:
Kaidens mom changed the agreement, and now the child has to go for overnight stays.
She should have left things as they were then lurch wouldn't be seeing this poor kid.
So Olivia has put her innocent son in a volatile situation.
Ali'spinkchair says:
Normally I don't like the term, "trailer trash" HOWEVER, I think it fits these two perfectly.
Crap Goblin says:
They better have a gate around that pool! But seriously, you buy the b.s. drowning story that Casey's lawyers came up with? She smothered that poor baby with chloroform and killed her and then went on a party bender. How the F that girl is walking free is a disgusting miscarriage of justice.
Oops. Sorry! I posted this in the wrong spot!
Streets Full of Uppercuts says:
Jenelle posted a picture of the kids, including Kaden, on Instagram. Didn't David agree that he wouldn't do that? I thought that was part of their agreement, which still stands. Not shocking that Jenelle felt the need to prove to everyone that they won Kaden. I say won because this is just one big game to them. The kids are just trophies to be won.
Oops! Meant to hit thumbs up. I agree with you. She doesn't want Jace. She just wants to win against her mother.
Money really is evil sometimes. David and Jenelle get away with a thousand times more than others could b/c Jenelle has the money to get slick lawyers and probably pays off people too. Those poor kids.
So both Jenelle and David have three kids each but none have the same mom or dad. These poor kids.
My biggest fear is they have an in-ground swimming pool and we all know these kids are not watched. Remember when Jace was lost in the woods for hours, makes me wonder how long he was missing before they noticed.
The Brady bunch meets Jerry Springer
I fear a Casey Anthony scenario happening on the land
To this day it's still bothers me her lawyers were so sleazy I don't know how she manages to live with herself
Lurch's Forgotton Son says:
So, did they refuse a drug test by the court like they did with CPS? How the hell is this happening?
Thanks a lot MTV! This is what happens when you throw money at trailer trash. Now another child is in danger. I never understood why they have to be paid so much money. Even if MTV cut their pay in half, what are they going to do, say no thanks , when the alternative is working a 40 hour a week job for minimum wage? These girls all think they hold all the cards, when clearly they don't. It's time for MTV to either cancel this shitshow, or stop throwing so much money at these aholes.
That's a really good point actually. MTV could probably pay them $30k a year and they'd still do the show. It's either that or McDonald's.
RoastBeef says:
Amen!! And who does David think he is pay me to film on The Land lol
I wish David and Nathan could do a boxing match
Steroids vs Meth and I wish David would get slapped like a little bitch
That would be epic! Better than Screech vs Horshack!
I'm not into boxing, but I would totally buy a ticket to that. Could we use the proceeds to help Olivia?
Other than Jace , it's devastating that not one of these children have an advocate. Gary was a grown man and the state stepped in, as did cps, when he was being abused. Where is everyone now to protect these innocent kids from the abuse clearly happening. Sadly raisers main lesson is d not bother telling grandma David hits you. Shell drop her case.
This just proves that the court system only works if you have an obscene amount of money. That's why these two get away with everything.
With the exception of little Ensley, each child connected to this boiling hot mess involves either a court battle, custody issue, physically abusive conflict — or all three.
My heart totally breaks for these kids.
And that's because the huge sums of money and resources being thrown at these two druggie LAND DOPERS who call themselves parents will apparently never end—until like Farrah, Jenelle becomes a porn star.
TFSFW (Too Effing Sad For Words)
It won't be porno she gets paid for. They'll be an ex with a tape who sells it.
Ensly will it's just a matter of time. Also Farrah is selling her shoes and purses now. Guess she needs cash
How, WHY?! So that he can be abusive to him just like he is to Kaiser, calling his own son "a little bitch" and everything else?! I just hope these courts won't intervene before it's too late, I'm sure Olivia is scared now for her son's safety……..should have kept the restraining order intact, this man is dangerous and who knows what he can do to Kaden.
FREE THE KIDS, EACH AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!
Thank you Morgan J Freeman.
nathans future ex-baby mama says:
I'm sure Janelle is THRILLED to have another kid on the land, one she doesn't particularly like or know. She and David don't seem to care about any of their own. This child's chances are right up their with Kaiser's.
Less child support they have to pay
Real life problems of a famous person says:
I think the court should've started with daily visits first instead of forcing a small child to go to a stranger's house for days at a time.
That is what the article says. He's been visiting and will be staying overnight for the first time soon.
If ever there was a cause to Kickstarter, this would be the cause.
At the very least, I hope Olivia is holding David's ass to the fire with child support. Force him to pony up every last nickel allowed by the State of North Carolina. If her lack of money is keeping her from legally keeping her son from that monster, I sure hope she used that to get child support.
When is karma going to get Jenelle and David? Aren't they due for some exceptional bad karma?
MarieLynn says:
Wtf is wrong with you judgemental lunatics. I FOUGHT WITHOUT A LAWYER because i was being truthful and he had no argument against me. But he lied and FOUGHT like hell while his parents paid for his lawyer.I STILL WON. SHE'S obviously making shit up. If he pushed her while she was 8 months who into say she didn't provoke him? Second of all, the kid is 4 that means over 4 years ago that happened. People do grow up! You dont see everything on t.v. maybe he has a temper but so could the person passing you on the street. Person walks by and could go home and get shit faced and beat their family but you would never know. Y'all are so damn ignorant. Oh wow who gives a shit if he doesn't agree with LGBTQ community. It's our right to exercise freedom of speech. Fucking snowflakes. He has a point. Most of us were raised where your a man or woman and you marry the opposite sex and have a family. Look at all the people doing insanely erratic shit, taking hormones to alter their biology, taking steroids to get buff, have surgery to change their sex……YET JENELLE AND DAVID ARE out of their mind. They're trying to live in fucking peace, enjoy life and raise their kids. It takes REAL MEN/WOMEN to raise someone else's kids so good for them. If they didn't have all their kids you would still bash them so get a fucking life. WAKE THE FUCK UP.
I didn't read past "who into say she didn't provoke him?" You're either, David (which is what I'm leaning towards), a troll, or just flat out stupid. But David IS all three rolled into one so ??♀
You are what's wrong with today's society. "Maybe he has a temper" "that was 4 years ago, people grow up" … have you seen his erratic, scary behavior on the show? He acts like a complete psycho, and that's either with the camera's rolling, or witnessed by other people. If he acts like that in public, then what he does behind closed doors is worse, and no child should be subjected to that.
And what is your point re: anyone who walks by could get shit faced and go home and beat their kid? Does that make David's crazy behavior OK? So because anyone we see on the street could go home and beat their kid, that means we should just shut up about David's clearly abusive behavior? If you are going to choose an argument, atleast choose one that proves a point. Your entire post is pointless and ignorant.
RadhyRach says:
Your post is disgusting and barely readable. You sound completely ignorant and idiotic.
Bea Squared says:
Gotta be Lurch, Jenelle or Tori. No one else is that stupid to defend a drugged up abuser.
I agree She probably provoked him…. just like Kaiser does when he acts like a little kid.
I hope you're too young to be dating but always remember this No man or woman has the right to put their hands on their spouse in anger. It's unacceptable
Spencer that is some of the best advice you could ever give somebody!
Or a child
Or someone's child or your child
I can think of zero situations that would justifiably involve a huge ass man beating down his super pregnant girlfriend. There is not a single provocation in the world that would justify beating the mother of your baby, ESPECIALLY while she is pregnant. There is no good or valid or okay reason for assaulting a pregnant woman! What the hell!? Who even thinks like this!?
Are you kidding? Who's to say she didn't provoke him?? No excuse. They are disgusting, terrible parents. He needs to keep his ignorant thoughts to himself. They should NOT have custody of any kids. Period.
President of the Peanut Gallery says:
This right here, is why we don't do drugs, kids. Just remember, you too may turn into a raving lunatic on the internet that verbally accosts perfect strangers with unintelligible drivel, while simultaneously excusing away child, partner and drug abuse, in all forms.
Please…don't do drugs, stay in school, and strive to be the best you that you can be!
Um, there is absolutely no excuse for a man to behave violently toward a woman—especially when that woman is pregnant. I don't care at all what the woman may have done, or any way that she "provoked" him.
I feel very sorry for you and for any female you may be raising. This kind of thought process is incredibly sad. I hope you don't find yourself in this type of scenario or lifestyle but if you do, j hope you remember that being hit by a man is not your fault. That blame lies entirely on the man and his misogynistic caveman mentality.
Anyone who thinks a woman did something to deserve being pushed down the stairs, while being 8 MONTHS PREGNANT, is as much as a POS as a David is. Who in their right mind writes that while "trying to defend" that monster?
If she would have lost the child, would it have also been bc she provocked him? Should she just let it go bc he "grew up"? Tell me what could a woman possibly have said or done that she deserved to be pushed down? I'll be waiting for you response
dramastical changes says:
Really???? She provoked him into pushing her and leaving her in a street at 8 months pregnant?? You're an imbecile Marielynn!!
What the actual fuck.
Roast Beef says:
Maybe if we donate to Nathan's mom and Olivia It might have helped.
I know when I went through my divorce the mediation wanted money right then and the lawyer was a little better still cost $20,000 in lawyer fees and nothing major was done my ex just kept stalling and they let him
juhnels bad brows says:
Poor baby
Kails from hell says:
THats America's court system. DCFS will only step up when it's too late. The whole situation makes no sense.He beat her while she was pregnant with Kaden. I just don't understand. SMDH!!
She relented and let David start having visits with him. That is where she went wrong. It sets the precedent that she doesn't actually think David is dangerous for him to be around.
Monkey!!! ? says:
Jesus god, Olivia. If you'd told us the deal we could have crowd sourced the cash for you to keep him away The Laaaaaaand.
For real! I'd have donated!
Wampascat says:
How long until Jenelle pisses on Kaden's toothbrush?
Ugh, I feel really bad for her. I can't imagine how terrified she is to send her son there overnight. This is seriously sad.
Mrs. Greenway says:
Jenelle and Lurch have unlimited resources thanks to Teen Mom, and Olivia doesn't. Courts are biased toward bio-parents. How any judge could see what David does when he KNOWS he is being filmed, and not call it scary and abuse, I don't know.
I'm thankful that Jenelle didn't lose her job, and the money will keep rolling in. Hopefully this will avoid an epic meltdown for awhile, and the kids will be safe. Safer. None of them are safe.
Food City Floozy says:
Jenelle and Lurch have 6 kids between them and none of them are full siblings. Trash.
Only 5 actually but I know it is hard to keep track, lol.
Oops, you're right. My bad.
I seen you wif keiffah says:
Kids' welfare doesn't seem to mean much to the system in whatever Carolina they're from. How sad.
Also Ashley says:
Yet another example of how broken our legal system is. This case regarding a child's safety in the presence of a KNOWN ABUSER came down to who could afford to go to court. Olivia is already saddled with the expenses of raising a child as a single mother, and simply can't afford to fight to keep him safe. I am utterly disgusted, and so concerned for ALL of the children involved. I feel like it's only a matter of time before MTV ends TM2 and we see these psychopaths resurface as criminals for harming these kids.
Farrah's Nay-gativity says:
Why is it that the scum of this world always seem to end up on top?
I can handle these illiterate degenerates having beautiful big houses, cars, and tonnes of money for nothing other than being illiterate degenerates, but when the wellbeing and potentially the lives of innocent young children are at stake, and still they never seem to lose, my blood boils.
I used to believe in karma, but not any more, because you're right, it's nasty scum like these 2 who always seems to come out on top.
Maybe Olivia should not have had a change of heart.
Exactly. She willingly changed custody with David. A judge had nothing to do with that. Now all of a sudden Olivia has a problem with David seeing their kid?!? It sucks and David should be around ANY kids, but this is what happens when you change your mind every 6 months.
Should NOT be around any kids.
I wonder if she's being threatened?
That's what I think. He manipulated her and threatened her. He probably threatened to sue for full custody of more time now that he has a ton of money, a job with teen mom, a wife, more kids under his care, a home, a car, and LAND. Olivia probably was scared and couldn't afford to fight against him in court so she agreed to limited visitation. Maybe Jenelle and David even bribed her and gave her cash payments. She let her little boy go there for awhile and then changed her mind, realizing that David hadn't changed, and that just bc he had money and a house and a nice car, didn't mean he was suddenly a better, kinder person, deserving of being around kids. She really should never have relented in the first place, but I highly doubt it was her idea or suggestion, and I bet she was facing a lot of emotional and financial manipulation and threats.
aCg says:
Sad on so many levels. Maybe Olivia and Marissa's mother can team up and take him down…
Oh her mom is worse than Ubt.
Hence that looney of a man getting full custody.
This is a really good point I don't know if you watch teen mom two but Chelsea and Taylor did the same thing when it came to Adam I feel like when they were able to do that it helped both of their cases that by themselves were already strong
Wtf is the judge smoking
I.said.it. says:
It's not a judge. She dropped it so the judge is going to rule on the original agreement. Olivia should have gone pro se but I'm sure she was worried he may have gotten even more time with her son.
Somethings are just too sad to even comment on I don't know how anyone could justify this kind of ruling how on earth could this be in the child's best interest
MackenziesWhiteGirlTears says:
The Worst news i've heard all week.
Bless that little boy i hope he stays safe
Bruja's younger prettier Sister says:
She obviously doesn't care about his wellbeing
The lawyer I meant
Visulenia says:
Nathan might be a dumbass but he got it right when he told Jenelle "You're trailer trash who hit the lottery".
I'm utterly disappointed that another child is going to be in danger by these two idiots. However I do think Jenelle will be jealous of Kaden sooner or later and maybe that will keep the poor kid away from them…
They remind me of Amber when she was hoarding all those puppies and cats, except they do it with children. All of Amber's pets were running around amok, pissing everywhere, neglected and not taken care of. Same goes to Jenelle and Lurch. So sad and tragic, I wish there was a way to rescue those children…
coryandtrevor says:
It is such a sad situation for all of these children. Lurch and Jenelle look at them as pawns to play against the other "parent." The statement saying that this is all happy and new to them says it all. I predict that "The Land" will be foreclosed on by this time next year and the mud slinging between these two garbage bags will be epic. I also think that Lurch must have something he's holding over Olivia's head, because all the evidence showing that Lurch is a lunatic is irrefutable.
Gary's dad bod says:
First thing I thought. David has dirt on her. Unfortunately, I think David and Jenelle will soon be using their daughter in their wicked games. No way they'll stay together.
god,why cant they lose?just once,i wat them to have to eat crow..
They were losing until Olivia changed her mind. That's the only reason why a judge sided with David. Olivia and David had a legal custody agreement in the eyes of the court. She went against it, and that's why she lost. He would never of won if the original restraining order and custody wasn't dropped. It sucks, and I'm sure Olivia is going to regret every letting David manipulate her
Kaidenskeeper says:
Please Olivia, I'd be more than happy to contribute to a go fund me account helping with legal fees in order to keep him in supervised visits. Random hair follicle drag tests for both of them (JE & DAVE), I can guarantee without a doubt, she wouldn't need any more court hearings!! When will these poor children welfare be top priority over $$, SAD, SAD DAY!!
HOPE4KAIDEN says:
Kaidenskeeper's comment right here is everything!!!! Random follicle drug tests (not done by them–they'll cheat) are crucial to these kids welfare. Why do you think the clown shaved & cut all his hair, hmmmm!!! God Nathan, step up and let's do testing for Kaiser!
Let's start a go fund me for her. I will pony up some money to help get any of those kids off the land and away from lurch.
Money wins again for the the trailer trash when will MTV take it away so these kids have a chance.

B'klyn woman covered up aunt's death to live in rent-stabilized apartment: lawsuit
Amber Sutherland
Social Links for Amber Sutherland
The exterior of the Prospect Park building where a woman covered up her aunt's death to live in her rent-stabilized apartment Stephen Yang
A Brooklyn scammer spent four years fooling her dead aunt's co-op board into thinking the woman was still alive, to keep living in the rent-stabilized apartment for $287 a month, a lawsuit charges.
Brenda Williams, 55, gave neighbors regular health updates on Debbie Vaughan long after the woman died at age 93 in 2007 — and pulled out all the stops to keep board members at the Prospect Park building from trying to contact the woman, the lawsuit says.
Williams claimed "her aunt was paranoid and senile and if we knocked on the door, she would have a heart attack," said the co-op board's president, Diana Hansen-Young. The suit was filed Phillip Cramer, the apartment's owner.
The alleged scam was uncovered in 2010, when Hansen-Young and a plumber went into the apartment on Vanderbilt Avenue to fix a leak.
Williams blocked the entrance to the living room and said, "You can't see her right now — she's sick and she's sleeping," Hansen-Young recalled.
But Hansen-Young insisted and brushed past Williams into the room — which was empty but for a bare mattress and a bureau with mail piled on it.
"I had to bring her to North Carolina to see family," Williams then explained, Hansen-Young said.
When Cramer checked death records, he found that Vaughan had died almost four years earlier.
Cramer is now trying to evict Williams from the 550-square-foot apartment, which has hardwood floors, exposed brick and high ceilings — and should rent for about $2,200 a month.
Cramer had kept Vaughan's rent low — even as the neighborhood gentrified — because of her advanced age, poor health and poverty, the suit says.
Before Vaughan's death, Williams told Cramer she lived with her aunt and helped out by "cooking for her, bathing her, and taking her to doctors, supermarkets, church and senior-citizen centers," the suit charges.
But Williams really lived down the block with a boyfriend, said attorney Peter Sanders, who filed the $405,000 suit in Brooklyn Supreme Court on March 20.
"She moved into the apartment after her aunt died," Sanders said. "She would pay the rent by money order with her aunt's name years after her aunt died."
All along, "she pretended like she's alive," Hansen-Young said. "She gave updates on her health, like, 'She's feeling better today,' or, 'She has a touch of arthritis.' "
Sanders said Williams continues to come to the building, even though there's an ongoing housing case to get her evicted.
Williams, a city Department of Education school-improvement specialist for 25 years, said, "I don't care what The Post writes. Call my lawyer," and hung up when reached by phone.

Review: Gorgeous and grotesque, 'Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio' is one of the best films of 2022
Bob Strauss December 2, 2022Updated: December 7, 2022, 6:30 pm
"Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio" is a stop-motion animated film that's been marinating in del Toro's head for a long time. Photo: Netflix
"Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio" is a most amazing creature.
Not easy when telling a story that seems to get a film adaptation every other year (or, if you count Disney+'s recent, god-awful version, every couple of months). Yet formally, thematically, emotionally, one might even say spiritually, del Toro and co-director Mark Gustafson ("Fantastic Mr. Fox") amaze with boundless fresh takes on Carlo Collodi's 19th century tale of a living puppet.
This stop-motion animated version has been a dream of del Toro's since his movie-obsessed childhood in Guadalajara, and it shows. Not only are painstakingly manipulated puppets an ideal medium for the adventures of "the little wooden boy made of pine," as he's referred to in the film; every image is informed by the "Pan's Labyrinth" and "The Shape of Water" director's brand of gorgeous grotesque, from card-playing skeletal rabbits to the ugliest giant dogfish to ever swallow ships whole.
Pinocchio here is hardly the rosy-cheeked cherub Walt Disney imprinted on our brains, but a spindly collection of potential splinters with exposed nails and metal joints (Geppetto was drunk when he carved him). He's got a Frankenstein monster quality, but made by del Toro so you have to love him.
Pinocchio is voiced by Gregory Mann in "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio." Photo: Netflix
Exuberantly voiced by the young English actor Gregory Mann, this Pinocchio may be the most innocent incarnation yet, but he's also the most subversive. His personality is set up on his first morning of life by the song "Everything Is New to Me" — like several in the film, composed by Alexandre Desplat, with del Toro contributing some lyrics — in which he giddily discovers uses for hammers (correct: smash things), chamber pots (wrong: not a hat) and whatever else can wreak happy havoc.
This approach continues through a long, often dark scenario, some of which is taken from Collodi's Italian children's story, a lot dreamed up by del Toro and co-scripter Patrick McHale and informed by film references, ranging from John Carpenter's "The Thing" to Satyajit Ray's "Distant Thunder."
The screenwriters' most humanizing idea is a running commentary on the expectations and disappointments between fathers and sons. Geppetto, voiced with heartbroken weariness by David Bradley, wishes his wild wooden boy would obediently behave. Pinocchio wonders why the woodcarver can't accept him as he made him.

Collodi's story has also been moved up to the first half of the 20th century, so one of del Toro's favorite pastimes, critiquing fascism, can be applied in full force. Few chances are missed to satirize or lament Mussolini's Italy in brutal, subtle and scatological terms.
If all of this sounds a bit heavy, think of it as ballast for a movie that's awash in fantastic fun. Ewan McGregor does narrator duties as one Sebastian J. Cricket, a realistic-looking bug with literary pretensions who lives, literally and symbolically, in Pinocchio's heart (a hole in the puppet's wooden chest). He also gets squished a lot.
Christoph Waltz is vocally despicable as crooked carnival impresario Count Volpe; this is voice casting of the highest order. Cate Blanchett, on the other hand, is a splendid goof as Volpe's hench-monkey Spazzatura. "Tar's" highbrow dialogue queen is all grunts, squeaks and cackles — until her debased character, too, finds a moral center.
In the obvious casting department, Tilda Swinton does double duty as the voices of otherworldly entities Wood Sprite, who brings Pinocchio to life, and Death, whom he encounters on a regular basis. These masked creatures are marvels of sphinx-like design, with horns and wings full of eyeballs, serpent tails and haughty attitudes that have room for bits of feeling where it counts.

Which, in the end, is what distinguishes this "Pinocchio." Yes, there are kinetic underwater sequences that look impossible to pull off. Boys are tragically turned into soldiers rather than donkeys this time. And Pinocchio learns that lying can be OK when a tree branch could come in handy. But the most amazing change to the old story is the effective case the film makes for love conquering all: mortality, repressive society, one's own limiting judgments.
It's a remarkably life-affirming message coming from a mess of animated puppets and a monster-loving filmmaker.
N"Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio": Animated drama. Starring voices of Ewan McGregor, David Bradley, Gregory Mann, Christoph Waltz and Tilda Swinton. Directed by Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson. (PG. 117 minutes.) In select theaters now and available to stream on Netflix starting Friday, Dec. 9.

How much do you really need to tell your investors about your company's strategy, its investments, its vision? Sometimes what you don't say is as important as what you do communicate. Here is some advice and best practices from technology company CEB.


Contrary to a well-timed post on Facebook this morning, Lakewood, NJ's Icarus Brewing Company isn't eliminating "hazy IPAs" from their lineup - infact, there are more coming out very soon! Jason Goldstein, Owner and Head Brewer at Icarus, tell us, "Starting this weekend we'll be sending kegs of Yacht Juice all over the state as well as it returning back to our Taplist."
In addition, on Wednesday, Icarus will be releasing Yacht Shake. Yacht Shake is an 8% ABV Imperial IPA with Lactose and Vanilla Beans. Label art for Yacht Shake reads, "Heavily Oated North East Imperial India Pale Ale with Lactose and Vanilla Beans Dry Hopped copiously with Lupulin Citra, Mosaic, and Columbus then conditoned on Madagascar Vanilla Beans." Goldstein detailed the beer to us, "We took the base recipe of Yacht Juice and added in Lactose and 3 Pounds of Madagascar Vanilla Beans to make it into a Yacht Shake. This will be available in our Taproom and in distribution around the state starting Wednesday."
Alongside Yacht Shake, Icarus will be re-releasing Don't Haze My Brux. Don't Haze Me Brux is a 5% ABV Brux Pale Ale that Goldstein details as, "a Brux North East style Pale Ale with Oats that was dry hopped with Lupulin Mosaic, Columbus, and El Dorado with even more Huell Melon thrown on top leaving it with a Tropical Fruit, Lemon, and hint of dank while still being lighter than our typical big North East Imperials." Don't Haze Me Brux was originally released last April.

Q: Assign Weibull densities within groups of dataset I am trying to create a new column on my data.frame (df) with values of Weibull densities.
I need to assign densities for vector of quantiles (w) taking into account groups in this df.
The subsets are delimited by the variable "plot".
Each plot has specific Weibull parameters in which the densities should be originated from.
The parameters are stored in df_2.
Reproducible example:
set.seed(25)

w = rweibull(1200,10,28)
plot = data.frame(c(rep.int(1,300),rep.int(2,300),rep.int(3,300),rep.int(4,300)))
   names(plot)[1] = c("plot")

df = cbind(plot,w)

df_2=data.frame(cbind(c(1,2,3,4),c(28,27,26,25),c(9,9.5,8,7)))
   names(df_2)[1:3] = c("plot","scale","shape")

I tried to adapt a code from hadley's answer here, but did not succeed.
library(plyr)
weibull_density <- ddply(df, "plot", function(x) {
  data.frame(
    density = dweibull(df$w, scale=df_2$scale, shape=df_2$shape)
  )
})

nrow(weibull_density)
[1] 4800

It returns a data.frame with 4800 rows (I was expecting 1200).
I also took a look in examples provided in ?ddply help page, but could not figure out how to adapt it to this situation.

A: I think this maybe the simplest??
> df3=merge(df, df_2)
> res=mapply(dweibull, x=df3$w, shape=df3$shape, scale=df3$scale)

> head(res)
[1] 0.11900795 0.09575625 0.09021534 0.04742028 0.08339647 0.01091331

> length(res)
[1] 1200

maybe???

A: You obtain 4 values because df_2 has 4 rows. You need to tell R to use, e.g., the first row of df_2 for the w values for plot == 1.
The following code produces the expected output:
weibull_density <- transform(df,
  density = as.vector(sapply(unique(plot), function(x)
    dweibull(w[plot %in% x], scale = df_2$scale[x], shape = df_2$shape[x]))))

Joshua Tree National Park is located in southeastern California. Declared a U.S. National Park in 1994 when the U.S. Congress passed the California Desert Protection Act (Public Law 103-433), it had previously been a U.S. National Monument since 1936. It is named for the Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia) forests native to the park. It covers a land area of 789,745 acres (319,598 ha). A large part of the park is designated to wilderness area—some 429,690 acres (173,890 ha). Straddling the San Bernardino County/Riverside County border, the park includes parts of two deserts, each an ecosystem whose characteristics are determined primarily by elevation: the higher Mojave Desert and lower Colorado Desert. The Little San Bernardino Mountains run through the southwest edge of the park.
The higher, drier, and slightly cooler Mojave Desert is the special habitat of Yucca brevifolia, the Joshua tree for which the park is named. It occurs in patterns from dense forests to distantly spaced specimens. In addition to Joshua tree forests, the western part of the park includes some of the most interesting geologic displays found in California's deserts. The dominant geologic features of this landscape are hills of bare rock, usually broken up into loose boulders. These hills are popular amongst rock climbing and scrambling enthusiasts. The flatland between these hills is sparsely forested with Joshua trees. Together with the boulder piles and Skull Rock, the trees make the landscape otherworldly.


The device is applied to break up waste plastics in various shapes: plastic waste wires, waste cloth, waste membrane, as well as various small parts, plastic bottles, plastic containers, chemical fiber, rubber and plastic products with different pouring heads. This device can be maintained conveniently with compact structure, while the spiral rotary blade can be used easily to break up plastics, hoppers, cases and sieve screens, etc. Separate design is adopted with easy disassembly and cleanup.


Yelp helped me out again!! Paul was very professional and prompt with getting back to me with a very reasonable quote for my carpet and furniture cleaning. I like that their prices and cleaning processes are listed on their website which helps avoid any confusion.
The carpets and chairs came out great! They really took their time and did a thorough job. I'm so happy that I've finally found a new carpet cleaner that is so professional and didn't try to hard sell me with services I don't need!
I just had the cleaning service done with EcoClean and they did a fantastic job. They were done within 3 hours and I'm really satisfied with the cleaning job that they did. I had 3 bedroom, Hallway , Stairs and the walking closet done. The price was really reasonable.
I did a yelp search on reasonable and affordable carpet cleaning in the Bolingbrook area and was surprised to find EcoClean. Not only was their pricing affordable, the quality of their work was excellent and environmentally friendly. The tenants that live in the property I'm renting were so impressed with the results that they also hired EcoClean for their parents house in neighboring Naperville.
I plan to use EcoClean again, the owner Paul was wonderful to work with and knows the value of great customer service.
I had some terrible stains and the carpet indeed needed a quality clean, these guys not only were very polite and gave me a great price but they also did a phenomenal job in a timely fashion and threw in a FREE bottle of stain remover. Highly recommend!
My parents needed their carpets done so I referred them to the good folks at EcoClean. Needless to say, they were able to squeeze us in on short notice and did an amazing job. They even got out all the stains left by our 6-month old pup.

Knife & Fork, Bottle & Cork Spell "New York"
"A knife and a fork, a bottle and a cork; that's the way to spell New York" is a popular New York City rhyme that dates back to at least 1910. The children's rhyme was used in games and activities, such as jump rope and hopscotch.
"A chicken in the car and the car won't go; that's the way to spell Chicago" is a similar rhyme.

Our Taters portion of this recipe is a creamy, Labneh stuffed potato that is a meal in itself. Throw together a salad to accompany this luscious, easy tater.
Preheat over to 350 degrees. Wash and dry the potatoes, poke a few times with a fork across the top. Bake until tender, a fork should go into the potato very easily, about 45 minutes.
Remove potato from oven. Allow to cool for a few minutes until able to handle. Carefully remove an oval section of the top of the potato and reserve. Scoop out the insides with a spoon into a small bowl. Be careful not to break skin, and leave a little of the potato pulp in the potato to help create a little vessel for the filling.
Mash potato pulp with a fork. Whip in rest of ingredients. Add a dab of cream if the mixture is too stiff. Holding the potato in your hand, gently push the potato mixture into the emptied potato skin. You will have enough potato mixture to pile it high inside the skin. Grate cheese and use half on top of each potato.
Brush the reserved potato tops with olive oil. Place stuffed potatoes and potato tops back in oven and heat through until cheese is golden brown. Remove. Use the crisped little potato tops as a "hat" for each potato. Serve with a Hippitail!
The easiest sipper you'll ever make!
1 bottle ice cold coffee-flavoured Tonica Kombucha, or your choice of flavour.
Drop the pepperoncini into a chilled glass or mason jar, pour Tonica over top. Let your mixture sit for a few minutes, then sip away. The little bit of heat from the pepper will mingle very nicely with the Tonica, giving it added zip. Cheers!

Prince Harry exits '20 minutes' after Diana statue unveiling

Prince Harry, 36, didn't hang around for long after reuniting with his brother, Prince William to unveil a statue of their late mother, Princess Diana, outside Kensington Palace on Thursday.
The US-based duke — who flew in especially for the event to mark Diana's 60th birthday — reportedly arrived at the palace's Sunken Garden by chauffeur-driven car 30 minutes before the ceremony began.

Brothers reunite
After making his way to the public garden, where the statue awaited under a green silk cloth, sources say Harry was greeted first by James Holt, a former Kensington Palace staffer who now heads up the Sussexes' Archewell Foundation.
Then, he was joined by his brother Will, 39, and the men appeared to put on a united front despite their royal 'rift' playing out over the past few years.
The duo hasn't been pictured together since their grandfather Prince Philip's funeral in April. The sad event brought them together for the first time since Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped back from the royal family and relocated to the US in early 2020.

But the brothers weren't alone and instead had their long-time right-hand man, Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, by their side to diffuse any tension.
Lowther-Pinkerton, who was the chairman of the small statue committee, could be heard laughing with the pair, setting a relaxed tone for the event.
Rounding out the small, intimate ceremony were Princess Diana's siblings, Lady Sarah McCorquodale, Lady Jane Fellowes and Charles, the 9th Earl Spencer all of whom Harry and Will welcomed warmly.
Harry's quick exit
After some chit-chat, Harry and William each took a side of the green cover, and William said 'ready' before they pulled it down to reveal the statue amid applause.
Prince Harry was pictured grinning and looking relaxed, while Prince William spent more time inspecting the statue of his mother which was designed by artist Ian Rank-Broadley.
According to reports by the Daily Mail, after admiring the statue the group retired to the outside terrace of the Kensington Palace Pavilion for refreshments at around 2.45pm (local time).
But by 3.05pm, Prince Harry is said to have already made his excuses and left the party after just 20 minutes and 'one polite drink'.

Fraught relationship
Prince Harry's relationship with William and his family has been fraught for months now, with the royal telling Oprah Winfrey in their now-famous interview back in March that he needed 'space' from his big brother.
"I love him to bits," Harry told Oprah.
"He's my brother, we've been through hell together. And we have a shared experience. But we, you know, we have different paths."
Both Harry and Meghan, 39, made a series of claims against the royal family including alleging a family member made racist remarks about the colour of their then-unborn son Archie's skin tone.
Meghan also countered widely reported claims that she made her sister-in-law Kate Middleton cry before her 2018 wedding to Harry, saying that it was the reverse that had happened.
When the prince rushed home to the UK from California when his grandfather died in April, many were hoping the family would reunite in grief however the relationship remains strained.

'Still extremely complicated'
Ahead of the statue unveiling, biographer Omid Scobie said the rift was not as bad as some reports suggested.
He told Good Morning America: "The relationship between Harry and William is still extremely complicated.
"From what I understand from sources it is just a case of distance. They're simply not talking at the moment and while there has been small communication leading up to this point through their relevant teams, this is really going to be the first time where they have a proper opportunity to chat to each other."
Rhiannon Mills, Sky's royal correspondent said the smaller ceremony was something the brothers wanted because of their frosty relationship.
She said: "They all know all eyes are going to be on them.
"Harry is very well-schooled when it comes to putting on appearances. Both brothers are wary of the press and will not want to stoke any stories about them falling out."

After unveiling the statue of their mum, Harry and Wills released a rare joint statement that said: "Today, on what would have been our Mother's 60th birthday, we remember her love, strength and character – qualities that made her a force for good around the world, changing countless lives for the better.
"Every day, we wish she were still with us, and our hope is that this statue will be seen forever as a symbol of her life and her legacy.
"Thank you to Ian Rank-Broadley, Pip Morrison and their teams for their outstanding work, to the friends and donors who helped make this happen, and to all those around the world who keep our mother's memory alive."
William and Harry commissioned the statue in 2017 and wanted it to "recognise her positive impact in the UK and around the world, and help future generations understand the significance of her place in history".
The statue will be a permanent part of the garden, which was one of Diana's favourite spots. She lived in Kensington Palace throughout her marriage to Charles and after their separation.

First Lady Laura Bush visits the Laura Ingalls Wider home in Mansfield, Mo.
When you think of Little House on the Prairie, you normally wouldn't think of Missouri or racism.
Now the legendary author who wrote those books has had her name stripped from a major children's book award.
Laura Ingalls Wilder, who lived in Southwest Missouri's Mansfield for more than sixty years, is the author of the famous Little House on the Prairie novels.
The Association for Library Services to Children, a division of the American Library Association, made the unanimous decision Saturday to change the name of the Laura Ingalls Wilder award to the Children's Literature Legacy Award.
This comes as a result of what the organization calls racist portrayals of black people and Native Americans in her books.
The Library Association has received complaints for many years about a passage in Wilder's 1935 story "Going West," about a pioneering family.
The term "people" to was changed to "settlers" by book editors in 1953. Other portions of Wilder's literary work has been criticized as portraying Native Americans, specifically Osage Tribe members, as animalistic.
Wilder wrote her Little House books between 1932 and 1943 while she was living in Mansfield.
The television series Little House on the Prairie is loosely based on her novels, reflecting her pioneer life.
In a town of less than 2,000 people, Mansfield, Missouri's claim to fame is that it's home to one of the most recognized women in children's literature. The Mansfield Library Center's Nancee Dahms-Stinson says Laura Ingalls Wilder's books fly off the shelves.
"They're incredibly popular novels, they're classic in children's literature," says Dahms-Stinson, Youth Services Coordinator.
Their ability to relate to young readers is why the books have stood the test of time.
"They realize they're not alone in all of the different issues they're dealing with," says Dahms-Stinson.
While readers are still connecting with the books, according to the ALSC, their message doesn't resemble the times, saying they reflect racist and anti-native sentiments and are not universally embraced. Because of this, Wilder won't have a children's award named in her honor, something those in her hometown strongly disagree with.
"Laura Ingalls wrote about the time period she understood. She's not writing about this time period because she's not here, she's not here to defend that. If she were here now and she had grown up in this time period, the books would be different, but they're not," says John Cosby, a business owner in Mansfield.
If Wilder was alive today, Dahms-Stinson hopes she would understand that her name being removed from the children's literature award doesn't reflect her contributions to them.
"The committee and the Library Association was not making a statement regarding her contributions to literature, her writing or her love that she had for children," says Dahms-Stinson.
Critics of the American Library Association say the organization is on a slippery slope. By expecting long-dead authors and their works to reflect contemporary values could mean a stripping and self-censorship of books form library shelves that they have accused others of doing.

Zac Brown and Wife Shelly Welcome New Baby Boy!

Post by Zac Brown Band.
Zac Brown Band frontman Zac Brown and his his wife Shelly are parents for the fifth time after the arrival of their first son, Alexander Frost Brown.
The baby made his entrance into the world on Monday (May 5) and he certainly was a big boy. He weighed a whopping 11 pounds, 7 ounces. Brown explained that the couple's planned homebirth had to be transferred to a medical center for precautionary reasons, adding:
"We couldn't have asked for a better and more supportive team to allow us the natural delivery we wanted of our baby boy. Alexander Frost Brown 11lbs. 7 oz."
Alexander was welcomed by his four sisters, Justice (7), Lucy (6), Georgia (4) and Joni (3). However, he will definitely be the only boy; Brown, who is one of twelve siblings, admits that he's done having kids and is more than ready to go under the knife. "I'm ready, I'll go under the knife whenever the time will allow now," he testifies.
The Brown household will certainly be bustling, especially as Brown and his band leave for tour later this month.
The Grammy-winning band will load up the bus later this month for the Great American Road Trip Tour. It's not just any old tour; it includes sold-out stops at Fenway Park in Boston. ZBB will also headline Wrigley Field this summer.
Congratulations to the Brown family on their healthy baby boy!

Mel Ferrer Walter, Director of Brand Strategy at Buzzfeed. Headpiece created and photographed by Lin Marty Photography.
One of the brightest personalities …hands down…in advertising. With her hot pink lipstick, giving heart and creative mind, Mel has made a name for herself in the industry. Having a resume that includes popular brands such as Myspace, Sony and Buzzfeed, she provides a great perspective on what it takes to make it as a leader and woman in the biz. I had the privilege of getting to know Mel very well during my time working on Hyundai and Kia, and what she speaks is truth. Work hard, ask for what you want, and create your own opportunities. So lets get to it and learn more about Mel.
For those that are not familiar with the industry, please provide a description of what you do. I am responsible for driving revenue for BuzzFeed across the Auto, CPG, Retail, and QSR verticals. I manage a team of very talented sellers who I feel fortunate to work with every single day.
How did you first become interested in advertising? I love storytelling and imagery. I was that kid that tore apart magazines and created collages on my walls to express myself, changing the design and layout weekly. Advertising is a very natural fit for someone that likes to tell stories.
What made you want to pursue a career in sales? I stumbled into the digital world at the best possible time. Prior to my career in advertising, I was a Creative Executive at Sony working on movies. My primary job was to read scripts…hundreds of them…all in service of finding the right material to develop into a movie. That process moves at a glacial pace, and I was so fascinated at how quickly the new digital world operated. The speed, nimbleness and ability to bring ideas to life quickly are what ultimately hooked me.
What is one unexpected expectation/duty of your job that most wouldn't know? That you have to be a psychologist…. constantly analyzing the needs of your team, your clients, your creative. You have to be the glue that holds everyone together.
What does a typical day look like for you? Does it include any daily rituals? There is no typical day. Every day is different. The only constant is that it's going to be challenging in some way…MOST of the time in good ways. My only true ritual is sweat. I have to exert myself physically or else I'm no good to anyone. Movement and exercise is equally about my mental health as well as my physical health.
Mel told me hot pink! So hot pink I gave her.
What are the top pressures in your position? Revenue, Revenue, Revenue. I work with the team that keeps the lights on. Pressure also comes from clients always wanting bigger, better, never been done before ideas all the time. When you're working in a creative capacity, it's a challenge to keep clients happy all the time when creative ideas are subjective.
I also put a lot of pressure on myself to keep my team happy and well balanced. I pride myself on making sure that my team is set up for success and has a solid work life balance. We work in advertising; we're not curing cancer. If you're not having fun, it's time to re-evaluate.
What personal traits do you contribute to your success? One of my most useful traits is my ability to be adaptable and read a room. I think it's extremely important to listen and understand what the people are like around you. I also use my multi-tasking skillz to my advantage. I am very much a get it done kind of gal, and live/die by my to-do list. Lastly, I can be equally aggressive and equally nurturing. I don't think that one vs. the other defines a "successful" businessperson…especially in our industry. There are 1,001 ways to get to a winning outcome.
Any big success stories that stand out the most when looking back at your career journey thus far? Without naming names, I am very proud of the ongoing partnerships I've built with brands. To be able to say that some of my clients have been my clients for nearly 10 years is no easy feat…people burn out!...but I'm still standing, and have so much farther to go. I have the unique perspective (and great privilege) of working for 2 digital companies that made a lasting impact. I was at MySpace during its prime days, and now I'm witnessing how BuzzFeed impacts the news and culture every single day.
How did you end up working in Los Angeles? I attended the University of Southern California and never left Los Angeles. It's home.
What was your first gig in the industry and what were the steps you took to get hired? My first job was an assistant to a line producer on a feature film called "The Brothers". I had no idea what I was doing, but I figured it out. I think that's an extremely important quality. If you don't know how to do something, figure it out. Ask questions. Be curious. Don't be afraid to look dumb.
Mel's floral headpiece was the first I created for this series, so it ended up being very heavy by accident. I had to be creative with my angles to ensure she didn't look like Miss Chiquita and for a majority of the shoot she had to lay down flat on the ground. This mistake ended up being a blessing as we captured some really awesome shots.
What advice would you give women who are thinking of working in the industry? 1. Find your tribe! Network and put yourself out there and make contacts everywhere. 2. Do your job and the job you aspire to have. You have to create your own opportunities. 3. Once you start to rise in your organization, always think about how you can lift people up. 4. Positive energy is contagious and the best currency you can have in business.
What has changed in the industry from when you first started out? The advertising industry is always changing. From radio to print to cable to TV to digital…it's in a constant state of evolution. You can choose to see the frustration in that, or see the opportunity.
When starting out, any mistakes you learned from that you would like to share? Don't be afraid to ask for what you want in terms of salary and title. The worst they can say is no.
In moments of self-doubt, how do you pick up and keep moving forward? In moments of self-doubt, feel what you need to feel in the moment, but try to gain greater perspective and gratitude for what IS working. Then take some deep breaths, pull yourself together, put on some bright lipstick, and get back in the game.
What is one interesting thing about you that most people don't know? That I used to be a professional tandem surfer (that's two people doing acrobatics on a surfboard). At 17 I competed internationally, and tried to defer college, so I could move to Hawaii surf all day everyday. My parents were not down with that hahaha.
What does the word "success" mean to you? I define success as having a work/life balance, and knowing I have the freedom to do work that fulfills me beyond money. Success is having choices and a voice. Success is feeling valued.
As women we tend to have a lot of roles between home and work. How do you manage a healthy routine between personal and work responsibilities? It's a juggle and all you can do is try your best to prioritize what is most pressing for the day.
What are your go to resources for inspiration? Instagram. I search locations and hashtags for places that I want to travel to. Nothing beats visual inspiration.
In sales you get exposure to a lot of really great restaurants. What is your #1 recommended restaurant in Los Angeles right now? And what menu items are a must?
Classic recco: Chateau Marmont…this is an LA institution. Always cool.
What is one thing in Los Angeles you have been dying to do/try, but haven't had the chance to yet? Staycation on the East Side! I want to spend a weekend in an old Los Feliz home and do things/eat at places that are just too far from Venice. OR, I'd like to spend the night in the fancy Airstream Trailer park in Malibu.
1. The Grove or Americana? Never been to the Americana…too far east hahaha!
5. Fast Track or Carpool? EV baby….I got dem stickers. Carpool lane all the way!
6. Shutters or Terranea? Aw man…that's tough. Shutters is good for in town, Terranea is like leaving LA without actually leaving.
Thank you for your support in reading this post! Pose&Focus: Women in Advertising is my personal passion project dedicated to highlights women in the advertising industry through interviews and creative expression. Having been in the business myself for over a decade, I found it very important for women (and men) to support female leadership in our community & industry. Especially with our current political climate this mission is more important to me than ever before. I want our female readers to know when they come here they will get solid advice and actionable steps that they can use to elevate their own careers.

Thank you very much!

A: You can call the function in a reactive() (notice the () when using it)
Modelclustering<-reactive(function.clustering(df,input$Slider,1,1))

output$tabela<-renderTable(Modelclustering()[["plot_env"]][["data_table_1"]])

output$ScatterPlot<-renderPlot(Modelclustering()[["plot_env"]][["plotGD"]])


The Hubby and I look a leisurely walk today and stopped in at the local Korean market. I wanted to go in to pick up some mint leaves for mojitos tonight, and ended up getting a few extra items. Walking through the deli sections and a lovely Korean lady was giving out samples of a range of items. Some spicy squid or fish, pickled beans and jalepenos, nuts, some kimchi veg. We sampled it all, and although it was all really tasty, we settled for the pickled beans and the kimchi…whatever it is. We couldn't quite understand the lady, just knew it was a veg. Another thing we grabbed was a giant bottle of sesame dressing – which was super low carb! Since I wanted to use it in supper, use up some of the stuff I had in the fridge, and of course try the sesame dressing. So to go with supper, I came up with an Asian inspired kimchi sesame coleslaw.
It's got the creamy taste from the sesame, backed by the kimchi kick, all with the crunch of the cabbage.
We both cleaned out our bowls and I don't foresee a problem of finishing off the 1L sized dressing.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl, tossing to mix. Place in fridge while supper is being made.
