Wife of 49ers Star Details Her Nightmare Experience at Eagles' Stadium: 'Never Again'
Lawyers Reveal the One Disturbing Question They May Be Forced to Ask Prince Andrew: 'Nothing Is Off-Limits'
By Elizabeth Stauffer January 14, 2022 at 9:59am
What a royal mess.
After a New York federal judge denied Prince Andrew's legal team's motion to dismiss accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre's civil case against him on Wednesday, the Duke of York will either be compelled to pay a hefty settlement or face a civil trial for sexual assault in September, according to the U.K.'s Daily Mail.
Giuffre alleges "she was forced to have sex with the Duke three times in 2001 at Epstein's multiple homes."
The news keeps on getting worse for the royal. Already banished from performing his royal duties when these charges became known in 2019, Buckingham Palace announced on Thursday that the prince was forced to "relinquish his military titles and royal charities," including use of the title "His Royal Highness," The New York Times reported.
Additionally, the palace said he will be "defending this case as a private citizen."
Spencer Kuvin, an attorney representing several of Jeffrey Epstein's victims, spoke to the U.K.'s Mirror about what lies ahead for the royal outcast.
"It is without question the Duke will be asked about his private parts," Kuvin said.
"Nothing is off-limits because if an underage girl can describe what the Duke of York's private parts look like … how would that be if they had not had a relationship?"
Kuvin told the Mirror that "Andrew's disastrous BBC Newsnight interview will haunt him."
The Mail reported that Giuffre's attorney, David Boies, has alleged Prince Andrew's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, and his daughter Beatrice will be called as witnesses. During the above-mentioned BBC interview, Andrew said he had taken Beatrice to a Woking Pizza Express on the night he allegedly spent with Giuffre in London.
In addition, Boies has mentioned Prince Charles and Meghan Markle as potential witnesses. However, the reason for their testimony is unclear.
The Mail noted that "royals based in the UK cannot be forced to give evidence due to it being a civil case in a different jurisdiction."
The plaintiffs will likely subpoena Prince Andrew's medical records. According to the Mail, the prince claims that "he cannot sweat due to a rush of adrenaline while on a Royal Navy ship under attack in the 1982 Falklands War fought between Britain and Argentina."
Bookstore Goes Viral for Skewering Prince Harry's New Book with 'Brilliant' Window Display
This is significant because Giuffre alleged that Andrew had been "sweating heavily as they danced at London nightclub Tramp," on the night he is accused of sleeping with her in London, the Mail reported.
The outlet noted that friends of Giuffre "insist she will not agree to an out of court settlement, claiming she wants to 'send a message' that anyone 'with power and privilege' accused of abusing young girls will face the full force of the law."
"And Ms. Giuffre has instructed her lawyers that agreeing a settlement of at least $5 million with Prince Andrew — who denies the allegations being made against him — would not 'advance that message.'"
Do you believe Giuffre would turn down a $5 million settlement?
The reality of being offered $5 million or more to settle the case could potentially change her mind. After all, she's already ruined his life. There's not much more she can do to hurt him.
Media lawyer Mark Stephens told the Mail, "Prince Andrew has nowhere to go. He's effectively a dead man walking as far as the royal family is concerned."

Executives and guests of Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:RACE) visit the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to celebrate their 70th Anniversary of Founding.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' chief executive Sergio Marchionne has a lot on his mind these days. On one hand he has to decide what to do with Jeep as there have been a lot of rumours of a possible sale. Marchionne says it's not for sale. At least one speculation has been clarified and set.
However, at the New York Stock Exchange earlier in the week, hints of Marchionne's intentions of increasing volumes at Ferrari while still maintaining exclusivity came to light as he said the company has moved beyond the consideration stage for a Ferrari SUV and that it will decide on production volume in approximately 30 months.
SUVs have served to significantly expand sales volume at other high-end brands, but Marchionne promises Ferrari's offering will be limited to preserve exclusivity despite corporate objectives of doubling profits in the coming years. Perhaps, Lamborghini's soon-to-arrive SUV has fast tracked the decision at Maranello.

On Thursday, May 30, 2013, police investigated the armed robbery of the Burger King restaurant on Pomtpon Avenue. Police were initially alerted to the robbery at 10:54 p.m. when a passing motorist contacted 9-1-1 reporting she had just pulled into the restaurant parking lot observed a subject wearing a mask standing behind the counter holding a handgun. Responding officers discovered that a robbery had occurred and the suspect had already fled the store and was last observed running south on Pompton Avenue. Subsequent investigation revealed that the male robbery suspect, wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt and black mask, entered the store brandishing a black handgun and announced a robbery. The suspect then demanded that an employee open the cash registers at which time an as yet undetermined amount of cash was stolen before the man fled the scene. Officers then conducted an area search for the suspect with negative results. Detectives also responded, processed the scene for physical evidence, and are conducting a follow-up investigation. None of the employees were injured in the robbery. Any person that may witnessed suspicious activity in the Burger King area around the time of the robbery is asked to contact detectives at 973-239-4100.


WASHINGTON – House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chair Adam Schiff Thursday defended his stewardship of the committee's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election after Republican members of the panel called on him to step down.
"My colleagues may think it's ok that the Russians offered dirt on a Democratic candidate for president… My colleagues might think it's OK that when that [information] was offered to the son of the president … that the president's son didn't call the FBI, he did not refuse that foreign help … You might think it's ok that he took that meeting. You might that it's ok that Paul Manafort, the campaign chair … also took that meeting. You might think it's ok that the president's son-in-law also took that meeting," Schiff (D-Calif.) said at a hearing.
Earlier Thursday, President Trump called on Schiff to resign.
Attorney General William Barr sent a letter to key lawmakers on Capitol Hill Sunday that said Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III did not find any evidence of collusion between members of the Trump campaign and Russian officials during his 22-month investigation.
Barr has said he will confer with the Department of Justice as to what aspects of the report can be made public.
Schiff has maintained he still believes the campaign colluded with Russia. He and fellow Democrats have insisted that the full report be made public.
Republicans argued that the finding of no collusion should mean an end to Democratic congressional probes into the matter. They have accused Schiff of weaponizing the investigations for political purposes.
Schiff became committee chair in January after Democrats took control of the House. He served as ranking member during the previous Congress.


You never know what's coming around the bend.
Life is a mystery. No matter how hard you try and plan it, control it, set it in motion, dot all your "i's" and cross all your "t's" life happens. Maybe it's a ferocious toad that causes you to slip and impale your leg, maybe it's that top step you missed, tumbling you down the flight of stairs that prevents you from going to climb that mountain in China; or maybe it was a chance meeting of sixteen gorgeous, hunky Canadian canoeists just happening to be paddling by on an otherwise infrequently travelled river.
This weekend while floating in my magic river with three girlfriends I mentioned this moment could only be better if in fact a canoe full of handsome men came paddling by. Within one second, not 1, not 2, not 3, 4, 5, nor 6 but 8 red Algonquin canoes each adorned with classic, shirtless, lumberjack worthy men came paddling around the bend. I'd say that was "manifesting" at its best…and it was a good lesson in reminding me that something good can be just around the corner.
I for one enjoy the surprise and the serendipity of life. I love the plethora of possibilities any given day or moment can bring. Sure, some surprises may be challenging, sad and even frightening, but I also believe it is within ourselves to embrace what life has to show us and see the silver lining, turn it into a lesson, a badge and expand our capacity for empathy.
Now I'm no Pollyanna – I'll stomp my little size 5 foot all over the injustices I may feel from time to time – but I've found, the sooner you feel it, you can deal with it and move onto healing it. Needing to control everything or knowing exactly what is going to happen next in the grand scheme of life is not only boring, it's exhausting and it's also a life being lived in fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of failure, anxiety, the truth or consequences of an action and our ability to cope with the outcome.
I like to look at having faith in the unknown as being like a stranger who's going to be my new best friend – but I just haven't met them yet. There's no point fearing I won't like them, worrying about getting to know them, figuring out the how to be with them, whether we'll be besties or instant enemies. The story is yet to unfold – trust it will be a good one. Or as I always say – assume a box of kittens and not a box of scorpions. And even when we run into some stinging encounters – I am sure there will be a good lesson in it. (Like don't chase ferocious toads …just saying).
So embrace the element of surprise, the mystique of mystery, the climax of a good cliff-hanger. Marry the notion of unknown to adventure. And when all else fails simply change the "fear of the unknown" to the "beer of the unknown"…who doesn't want to try a new beer?
Be open, believe and trust – good things are coming around the bend.

EAGAN, Minn. — Before the first snap of the season, the Minnesota Vikings settled into their usual spots before a slight shift by defensive tackles Linval Joseph and Shamar Stephen to their left.
The second after that, defensive end Everson Griffen shuffled out of his extra-wide alignment to move directly in front of Atlanta's Jake Matthews. Linebacker Anthony Barr crept up to the line of scrimmage in Griffen's vacated space and, once Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan dropped back, made a beeline for the pocket for an 8-yard sack off a free rush after a disrupted Matthews blocked Griffen instead.
Just one play into the 2019 schedule, the Vikings defense was already rolling.
"That sack really set the tone," Joseph said, complimenting head coach Mike Zimmer's aggressive call at the start of the 28-12 victory over the Falcons on Sunday. "Everybody fed off that play."
For good measure, when Ryan took off on third-and-long, Barr finished the opening drive by racing over from the opposite side to make a diving tackle 2 yards short of the marker. The Falcons had to punt, Eric Wilson blocked it, and the offense took advantage of the shortened field with a quick touchdown.
This was the feeling, neutralizing an opponent in front of a loud crowd with a collection of accomplished players and close friends in a system they've thrived in, Barr did not want to miss when he decided to stay with Minnesota instead of joining the New York Jets this offseason.

"This is home," Barr said, "and I was happy to be back."
After his verbal agreement with the Jets that day in March, Barr slept for only a few hours after realizing the strength of the bond he'd built with the Vikings and of his familiarity with Zimmer's 4-3 scheme in which he is an integral part. After Barr told the Vikings he wanted to stay and they moved some money around to make the salary cap work, the four-time Pro Bowl pick was able to keep that purple jersey after all with a five-year contract valued at $67.5 million with $33 million guaranteed.
"You give him some money, and he can do a lot of different things," Joseph said. "He is living up to the hype."
The decision meant so much to safety Harrison Smith that, in an interview later, his voice cracked with emotion. The success the Vikings have enjoyed on defense is owed to individual talent and coaching acumen, of course, but system continuity can't be left off the list.
With Smith, Joseph, Griffen, Barr and cornerback Xavier Rhodes, the Vikings have five starters who've been around for all of Zimmer's six seasons. Linebacker Eric Kendricks, cornerback Trae Waynes, strong safety Anthony Harris and defensive end Danielle Hunter have five years each in the scheme. Stephen, who spent last season with Seattle before returning as a free agent, also is in his fifth year.
"We have a chemistry," Stephen said. "We kind of know where guys are going to be. We know how people rush. We know how people like to play their position."
The elbow injury suffered by cornerback Mackensie Alexander was about the only discouraging development from the opener for the Vikings, particularly given that the opposing quarterback this week is Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers. His absence in the second half against the Falcons thrust safety Jayron Kearse into primary duty in slot coverage in the nickel package, with rookies Kris Boyd and Mark Fields the only other options for the time being.
Mike Hughes, whose ACL tear was 11 months ago, has been practicing this week on a limited basis. He's on the verge of clearance, which would give the Vikings a welcomed boost behind starters Rhodes and Trae Waynes.
For more depth, the Vikings promoted cornerback Nate Meadors from the practice squad to the active roster and placed wide receiver Josh Doctson on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. Doctson, who was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, must miss a minimum of eight weeks if he's designated for a return. Meadors went undrafted out of UCLA. He had a 30-yard interception return for a touchdown in an exhibition game last month.

Repossessions rise for the first time since 2014
Written by: Lana Clements
Homeowner repossessions have risen quarter-on-quarter for the first time in more than three years, industry data shows.
Overall, the number of repossessions increased by more than 5% in the third quarter of 2017, compared to the three months prior, according to trade body, UK Finance (UKFI).
The figures don't take in account the recent interest rate hike, which could send more borrowers into arrears.
Buy-to-let repossessions fell over the period, but this was on balance cancelled out by the increase in owner-occupied properties taken over by lenders.
The number of possessions overall remains at historically low levels.
However, it's feared the recent interest rate rise and further hikes in the coming year could push the number even higher.
Mortgage arrears increased among those who owe 10% or more of the outstanding balance, the UKFI data showed, but fell across all bands in the three months to the end of September.
There was also a 2% increase in the number of buy-to-let mortgages in arrears, but overall the number of loans in arrears is at record lows.
'Vital borrowers keep lender in the loop if they're struggling'
Jonathan Harris, director of mortgage broker Anderson Harris, said: "Worryingly, repossessions are on the rise, albeit from an historically low level.
"These numbers do not reflect the recent interest rate hike either and with more rate rises a possibility, home repossessions may well increase further. We suspect that when it comes to their finances there are many people who don't have a buffer to tide them over should they get into difficulty.
"It is also vital that borrowers keep their lender in the loop if they are struggling to pay their mortgage. Lenders are being flexible and showing forbearance but it is much easier and less stressful to come up with solutions early on than further down the line when options may be much more limited."
Jeremy Leaf, north London estate agent and a former RICS residential chairman, added: "Looking forward, upward pressure on interest rates is likely to increase arrears as borrowers 'on the margins' always tend to be most vulnerable."

Private firms – instead of NASA — will lead the race back to the moon, with launch target dates set for 2019 – the fiftieth anniversary of the first manned moon landing.
Hot on the heels of with success landing a spacecraft on Mars on November. 26, NASA officers explained it'll partner with 9 private companies who "will compete to deliver experiments to the lunar surface," the Associated Press reported Thursday.
The so-called commercial lunar Payload Services (CLPS) contracts have a combined price of $2.6 billion over the next ten years, NASA officers same in their public announcement in Washington, D.C. The 9 companies are eligible to compete for those contracts, space News reported .
Jim Bridenstine, NASA administrator, said NASA can purchase the service and let private industry work out the details on going to the moon.
Characterizing the U.S. race to the moon "a fledgling industry," he said NASA can rely heavily on the private companies' analysis and will be affordable.
Two benefits of the partnerships include getting U.S. astronauts back to the moon more quickly and keeping them safer once they arrive.
Among the analysis projects the companies are performing on include radiation monitors, laser reflectors for gravity and measuring devices, said moon project leader Thomas Zurbuchen, NASA science mission head. Seemingly, the analysis is already in progress.
"We're going at high speed," said Zurbuchen.
The 9 companies range from startups to aerospace giants, reported area News, that added that while they're eligible for future contracts to deliver payloads to the surface of the moon.
Astrobiotic Technology INC. of Pittsburgh; deep space Systems of Littleton, Colorado; draper of Cambridge, Massachusetts; Firefly aerospace opposition. of Cedar Park, Texas; Intuitive Machines of Houston; Lockheed Martin of Littleton; Masten area Systems INC. of Mojave, California; Moon express of Cape Canaveral, Florida and Orbit beyond of Edison, New Jersey.
Lockheed Martin was responsible for the InSight lander, that landed on Mars earlier this week. Lockheed Martin is building the McCandless lunar Lander, modeled once InSight, that the private company engineered for NASA.
The McCandless lunar Lander is known as after the late astronaut and former Lockheed Martin employee Bruce McCandless. In 1984, he performed the first free-flying spacewalk while not a lifeline to the orbiting shuttle, employing a company-built jetpack. The picture of McCandless floating by himself in the blackness of space, with the blue Earth in the background, is one of NASA's most iconic.
According to AP, the new partnerships area unit loosely modeled after NASA's successful commercial shipment deliveries to the International orbiter. SpaceX and Northrop Grumman, erst Orbital ATK, have engineered space station shipments since 2012. SpaceX plans to start transporting astronauts to the orbiting lab next year, as will Boeing.
Bridenstine said NASA needs the companies to succeed, however "is certain some of the efforts can fail," AP reported .
Specifically, Zurbuchen said expectations shouldn't exceed fifty percent. The AP didn't elaborate.
Within the partnerships, NASA are one of many customers who can use lunar services like rocket rides, Bridenstine said.
NASA's objective is encouraging competition among the private companies in order to line up an orbiting outpost close to the moon as quick as possible.

Fool's Day
Right-wing media conspiracy spreads rumours of new Blur record
MyspaceAnd as the internet inexorably slows for the holiday season, we have this. Over in the UK, the generally dubious tabloid The Sun cites an anonymous source as saying that Blur are headed back into the studio in the new year to hash out some new material and, if all goes well, release a new record in 2011, their first since 2003's Think Tank and since 1999 with guitarist Graham Coxon.
While the credibility of the source – of both The Sun and their tipster – is suspect, it does make some sense. Following their triumphant 2009 reunion, the quartet opted to not immediately carry it forward and instead announced the reunion over, though ironically it was Coxon – who left the band in the first place – who kept pushing the idea that there could be more to come. In any case, Damon Albarn went back to wearing his Gorillaz suit, Coxon released his seventh solo record and Dave Rowntree and Alex James went back to doing whatever they were doing, making it look like the unfinished business had been attended to.
But then came their "Fool's Day" single, released in April for Record Store Day, which proved that a) they weren't in face done with Blur and b) Blur were still writing good tunes. It wasn't a song for the ages, certainly more subdued than many had hoped, but I thought it was an honest representation of where Blur was at in their 40s and still boasted a terrific Graham solo – certainly I'd be happy if they put out more of this. So with Gorillaz heading to the back burner and enough time elapsed since the reunion celebrating their past glories, 2011 sounds like a pretty good time to move Blur into the future. Let's hope that this rumour has more legs than the one last Spring, hinting that they'd be crossing the Atlantic for some North American dates.
MP3: Blur – "Fool's Day"
Much more certain is the new record from Elbow – BBC6 talks to frontman Guy Garvey about the new album, which will be entitled Build A Rocket, Boys and be out March 7 in the UK. Fingers crossed for a simultaneous North American release and touring.
Even though Florence & The Machine really broke out in 2009 and by rights should have gone back into the studio to work on a new record this year, Florence Welch still made her procrastination productive enough for Spin to name her their artist of the year and run a feature piece on her.
British Sea Power previews their new record Valhalla Dancehall acoustic-style with a video session for The Fly. The record is out January 11 and the band ruminate over their back catalog for Spinner.
PJ Harvey has released a video from her new record Let England Shake, due out February 15. Was only a passing PJ Harvey fan in the past but what I'm hearing from the new record is really doing it for me.
Video: PJ Harvey – "The Last Living Rose"
Even though they already had a perfectly good clip for the song, The Joy Formidable have made a new video for "Austere" – one that presumably has the version of the song that will appear on The Big Roar when it comes out on January 24 in the UK and March 15 in North America. Glad to hear that while the arrangement is a bit different, there's not any excessive major label gloss on it.

Clementine says:
I hope "Blur" ease into a new creative period, too. There's nothing "timecapsule-esque" about their music, nor do they seem to suffer from the usual hang-ups that bands who've experienced extraordinary success as kids, often do: An obsession with keeping a "purity of style" from one era or creating songs only appealing to one life period or age group ("Blur" were never just a pretty boy band for the kiddies and party people; they always seemed thoughtful and clever, nomatter what–the kind of boys who would hang around the old war veteran down at the pub and listen to his tales, able to have discussions with scientists at local fairs), which makes them interesting and always most committed to The Present, even while keeping a fondess and respect for their past. They just keep moving forward, with a refreshing kind of energy, self reflection and hopefulness.
As a result, they always seem relevant, immune to passing fads and trends. I hope they do create more music. Whatever their result, I'm sure it will be interesting. Their music always has been.
Frank Yang says:
yeah, I suspect that a new Blur record would be very honest to who they are now instead of trying to recapture past eras. Damon has established his artistic integrity bona fides pretty well and we've already seen what happens when Graham gets bored. I think a new record would certainly disappoint some looking for more "woo-hoo" but wouldn't diminish their legacy at all.

German Khan is a billionaire Ukrainian-Russian businessman.
Khan is most well-known for his role as the head of Alfa Eco, a wholesale trade company that was part of the Alfa Group Consortium. Khan was the son of a Ukrainian Jewish family. Growing up, Khan was very passionate about sports. He trained to be a boxer in high school.
German Khan's net worth was estimated at $10 billion as of August 2022.
German Borisovich Khan was born in Kyiv, Ukraine on the 24th of October 1961.
Khan is the son of Ukrainian Jewish parents, originally from Lviv. His father was a Professor of Metallurgy.
At a young age, Khan was interested in sports. In high school, he began to take an interest in boxing and cites the sport's influence on self-discipline and confidence. Khan graduated high school in 1978 and then worked as an apprentice on a factory shop floor for one year.
Khan was invited to lead a wholesale trade company Alfa Eco by Mikhail Fridman after he had met Khan, who had been a student at MISIS.
Khan was a manager at Alfa Group since 1992. Khan served as Alfa-Eco's trading arm until 1996 and was its head of trade operations from 1995 to 1998.
The Alfa Group sold just half of TNK to British Petroleum in 2003 for US$6.15billion. This was the largest foreign investment in Russia, equivalent to $ 8 billion in invested assets.
TNK-BP was purchased by the state-owned Rosneft in 2012 for $56 billion. The sale was ongoing as of early 2013. Reuters called it "one of the largest energy takeovers in history", with the total deal valued at $55 billion.

Remember that struggle and striving precede success, even in the dictionary.

Favorite Quotes From German Khan
I have never attempted to teach students or anyone else. I have never taught anyone. However, there are many people who have grown in the company.
My work involves several task forces. My position as an owner of the company and other Alfa-Group companies can cause problems. There are many people and connections in our group, so I can always help anyone who needs advice or assistance.

De Avepoda zijn een groep dinosauriërs, behorend tot de Theropoda.

In 1988 suggereerde Gregory S. Paul dat de term Theropoda, welke door Othniel Charles Marsh min of meer bedoeld was de betekenis "zoogdiervoeten" te hebben, beter vervangen zou kunnen worden door "Avepoda", "vogelvoeten". Hij stelde het echter niet formeel voor als vervangende naam. In 2002 echter definieerde hij een klade Avepoda als de groep die de Neotheropoda bevatte en verder vormen, of afstammelingen daarvan, met een eerste middenvoetsbeen dat de enkel niet raakt. De implicatie was dat als er soorten zouden bestaan die dit kenmerk apart van de Neotheropoda zouden hebben ontwikkeld, zodat het er niet homoloog aan zou zijn, ze niet tot de groep zouden behoren.

Het begrip wordt weinig gebruikt daar het bijna samenvalt met Neotheropoda sensu Sereno en kladen die gebaseerd zijn op het bezit van een apomorfie wegens hun inherente vaagheid impopulair zijn. Wel is het erg waarschijnlijk dat er nog wat basalere vormen bijhoren. Mogelijke kandidaten zijn Procompsognathus en Liliensternus. Daarentegen is het ook mogelijk dat de Avepoda juist een nauwere groep vormen dan de Neotheropoda als Tawa, met vier aan de enkel verbonden metatarsalia, een coelophysoïde mocht blijken te zijn.

A new study has discovered that your success depends on who you marry.
Spouses can greatly affect our decisions that can either make us successful or not.
If you want to be successful, you should also consider who you're going to marry.
That's according to a study carried out by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. The findings of their study showed that spouses can greatly affect our decisions that can either make us successful or not.
In the study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, researchers studies 163 married couples. Each one from the pairs was given a choice: to solve a simple puzzle or compete for a prize. Researchers recorded the couples' interactions as they both decide which to choose.
They discovered that people with more encouraging partners were more likely to take on the challenge and compete for the prize, while those with partners who discouraged them opted to to solve the simple puzzle.
Six months following the experiment, they also found out that those who did the more challenging task reported having better psychological well-being, happiness, growth, and better relationships compared to those who solved puzzles.
"We found support for the idea that the choices people make at these specific decision points—such as pursuing a work opportunity or seeking out new friends—matter a lot for their long-term well-being," Brooke Feeney of CMU's Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences said..
With that in mind, would world's richest person Bill Gates, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, former US President Barrack Obama, and music legend Beyonce Knowles achieved the level of success they have now if they were married to another person.
A study has found that wives tend to be happier with uglier husbands.
Wives with handsome husbands were more likely to follow strict diet and constantly attempt to lose weight for an obvious reason- to look hot for their partners.
Do you ever wonder some gorgeous women end up with ugly dudes?
Science has finally confirmed what Filipino rapper Andrew E. has long concluded in his famous 90's hit Humanap ka ng Panget– women tend to be happier with less attractive husbands.
The ugly truth about attractiveness was determined through a study carried out by researchers at the Florida State University. In the study, relationships of 113 newlywed couples in their 20's were evaluated to determine the role of attractiveness in an individual's overall happiness.
Respondents were asked to to answer a questionnaire about their personal desires to be fit and to diet. Moreover, each respondent was ranked on desirability based on face and body attractiveness.
Results showed that wives with handsome husbands were more likely to follow strict diet and constantly attempt to lose weight for an obvious reason- to look hot for their partners.
Mison Sere, winner of 2015's Mr Ugly proudly smiles as fans take a pose with him.
Just by thinking about crash diets and rigorous exercises can make one very worried and a little less happy.
Meanwhile, wives with less attractive husbands didn't feel the need to do these things just to please their husbands. Instead, they spend most of their time enjoying life with their not-so-attractive beaus.
"The results reveal that having a physically attractive husband may have negative consequences for wives, especially if those wives are not particularly attractive," researcher Tania Reynolds said.
"The research suggests there might be social factors playing a role in women's disordered eating," she added.
One thing is for sure, Miley Cyrus and fiancé Liam Hemsworth won't be saying I Do's anytime soon. According to reports, the power couple decided to postpone their wedding set later this year. It was also said that the decision was not mutual with Miley not approving it. Liam was said to be overwhelmed with the stress and his future with the popstar.
On the other hand, the 24-year-old actress/singer understands why Hemsworth canceled their marriage. It was for their common good but admits frustration with the hunk actor.
With the release of her latest album "Malibu", Cyrus offered another side of her again. Demure look and conservative style of music. She then revealed that she stopped smoking marijuana. Reason behind? All for Liam, I guess?
Boo! Cliffhanger. We know, we know. We'll keep you updated!
Every now and then, we hear proposal stories–it has come to a point when it became saturated already. But looking back, every story is unique in its own ways, strategies that we, too, cannot imagine.
They are just too sweet that you can never be bitter with it.
Another viral marriage proposal circulated online couple Frances Dannielle Rodas and Levinjune Solis got engaged at a McDonald's store. According to Rodas' Facebook post, she was about to get late for work when her beau asked for a breakfast date.
Even though she was so hungry at the time, all she wanted was a sandwich. This is for the fact that she is almost late for work. Solis insisted that they go to the nearby McDo, she gave in.
On the counter, she ordered one-piece chicken meal–her favorite. The cashier responsible for their queries asked Rodas if she wanted anything else. She said she's already good.
The female staff insisted her to order more and presented their newest offering. Little did she know, when the staff rolled down the menu, it has a message that would change her life forever.
"Will you marry me?" the board said.
"Sobrang nahihiya ako kasi ang daming tao may mga nag video pa. Basa pa kami sa ulan. 'Di man lang ako nakaayos," she narrated. That's when the time she sought validation to Solis and the guy popped the question.
"It's a YES, of course," she ended her story.
Sweet, isn't it? She also expressed her gratitude to the whole McDonald's crew who made the proposal possible.
It is priceless when we post pictures online and everyone appreciated it. However, we surely do know that what we post is open under the scrutiny of everyone, including people we don't personally know.
This is a hard life lesson this couple had to face after pictures of them posing naughty while wearing formal clothes went viral online. The poses suggest provocative acts and the photos received negative comments from netizens.
A Facebook page posted the picture and captioned it as "pictures taken by a wedding photographer". The post created a buzz on social media and attracted backlashes because of its unconventional concept.
Without any available information about the pictures nor the couple, netizens were quick to draw assumptions.
On the other hand, the original tweet that contains some of the photos has been deleted. Due to others' efforts, the pictures were saved and re-uploaded online.
Although it may come that they are just being young and having fun, it is still not enough defense for the bashing to stop. For others, the couple have crossed the line.
By this incident, we can learn great life lessons. First, when we upload pictures on social media, always keep in mind that the whole world is just waiting to hate on something. If you think that you might be taken out of context, keep it private or better, do not post them at all!
What do you think guys? Think before you click!
Watching your wife suffer from sickness is heartbreaking, but seeing her find a new love for you hurts even more.
Clare and John Mauremootoo was just an ordinary couple living in Somerset, United Kingdom, until Clare, 39, suffered from a disease that heavily affected her motor neurons.
Clare's death wish is far different from other wishes–for John to find new love so their two kids could be guided by a mother figure. She also wanted someone to look after her husband, keep him company.
During her darkest times, she was able to set aside her own feelings and asked the hospital staff at Weston Hospice to help her arrange possible dates for her husband. John, on the other hand, is hesitant to accept his wife's wish. He is not yet ready to forget what he and Clare had. He wanted to spend more time with her dying wife.
They even had a wonderful Valentine's Date in 2007 before Clare passed away.
Five days after their last Valentine's together, Clare died. Thinking about his wife's last wish, John did not immediately act on it. He thought about what his sons, Jack (10) and Ben (7) would feel.
Months after her wife's death, John signed up for an online dating website. There, she met Julie Macfarlane, a single mother of two. In March 2008, they decided to move in together. But it took them years to tie the knot, because they wanted their kids to grow first.
And in April of 2012, they finally exchanged vows and during their wedding, John spoke about Clare and said he thinks she's happy now. Happy that he finally fulfilled her death wish.
"During my speech, I talked about Clare's diagnosis and the time we'd spent together, and her wish for me to find someone special. I told everyone I tought Clare would be smiling down on us. She wanted us to be happy and I think she would be, seeing how things turned out," John said in an interview.
Jealousy is normal in every couple's life, it's good but it can get unhealthy.
Jessica Morris works as a waitress living in Centerville, Ohio. She did not expect she will be causing a buzz on the internet.
It's one normal working day for Jessica in the restaurant she's working at until a newlywed couple arrived to celebrate their honeymoon. As part of her job, she established a friendly relationship with the couple, helping them what to order, and provided the two with good service.
However, when she was asked to get the bill, instead of receiving a tip, she received a nasty comment. A note was written at the bottom of the receipt that says, "He's my husband! Find your own! Good Luck".
I would like you to know, the server that was in the section across from mine, that I kept talking to and checking on throughout the time of you sitting at my table IS MY HUSBAND. Which I found on my own, and looks better than yours. Also, I would like you to know that I'm sorry MY HUSBAND treated me to a cruise for my honeymoon and not a restaurant. As well as, MY HUSBAND would never let me feel so insecure that I would feel the need to write such a terrible note to a server and make them feel the way you have.
So bitter bride, here's a life tip for you from me, your insecurity as a woman is heartbreaking. Have pride in yourself and your relationship with YOUR husband to where you don't need to put another down to bring yourself up. Especially a server who lives off her tips and needs them to help her husband pay bills. Also, I hope you like the pen you stole from me, because it's my present to you. One NEWLYWED to another.
P.S – my husband said you can sit in his section next time that way you won't have to be so worried about your husband "flirting" with a server. Maybe you'll see his ring a little better than you saw mine.
It's unfortunate how we let jealousy consume us, letting ourselves do things that we would regret in the future. It makes us look so desperate.
Did Jessica slay or nah? Let us know.
Watch: This Couple Spent 400 Days To Travel 48 Countries, All For Their Honeymoon!
Typically, a honeymoon takes a week or a month to celebrate, but this Japanese newlywed takes honeymoon to a different dimension!
Kaz and Mariko Yamaguchi hit the global news as they traveled around the world, and recorded their journey using a drone! It took them 400 days to travel around 48 countries.
According to Kaz, he did not plan to tape their epic journey, but since he just bought a DJI Phantom 3 Advanced Drone, might as well make use of it, right? According to him, he had insufficient experience in drowning before they started their honeymoon. But as time went by, he figured out that using their newly-purchased gadget is a genius idea. It has captured a wider view of the place they are visiting.
Partnered with great music, their breathtaking adventure absolutely left everyone in tears.
Some of the 48 places they visited include; Ethiopia, Patagonia, the Amazon Rainforest, Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans in Botswana, the Rock of Guatapé in Colombia, and the world's largest salt flat, Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia.
The video truly sparked the inner wanderlust to its viewers. The high-altitude takes on the moving video absolutely inspired everyone. It brings a new perspective in traveling to people.
To find out more about this couple's epic adventure, you can visit their website, Honeymoon Traveler, and you can check this video on Youtube.
In a marriage, it is considered a violation when one of the couple forgets to wear their wedding band. Some couples even fight about it if the offender fails to give a valid reason for doing so since they both expect each other to wear the most vital symbol of their relationship.
This scenario might have happened to almost every couple and they surely know how hard it is to woo their partners after doing something offensive.
On the other hand, this wife made the initiative to give a 'sanction' as a disciplinary action to her husband who forgot to wear their ring.
Carla Cezar-Barriga's Facebook post went viral because of her witty Notice to Explain email to her husband.
Along with her post, she included a screenshot of her email which contains detailed information about the wrongdoing he committed and the charges to be imposed for the first offense.
Also, she posted the apologetic response of the offender – and also her husband Ranji Barriga, who willingly gave a satisfactory explanation and accepted the sanction given to him.
The people of the internet who have read Barriga's post found it extremely hilarious and sweet. Some of them even said that they got an idea which they can implement to their partners in the future.
Barriga said she did it instead of starting a fight, which everyone agreed to as appropriate and very innovative of her. What she had done is something couples can apply to their relationships, that instead of starting an argument, let the other party explain themselves as to which they can give 'sanctions' they prefer.

After the voters of Salem County approved a referendum at the November 2016 General Election, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:20-20, to reduce the size of the Freeholder Board from seven to five members, the County Clerk determined that the transition procedure would be to place five new freeholders positions on the 2017 ballot, with those elected to take office on the Monday following that election, at which time the terms of all existing freeholders would terminate.
A challenge was brought, and the trial court approved the Clerk's determination. We reversed, holding that the transition should be accomplished by placing on the 2017 ballot only one freeholder position. Because the terms of three existing freeholders expire at the end of 2017, the reduction to five members would thus be accomplished without prematurely terminating the terms of any existing freeholders.

In this case, a Pennsylvania lawyer and his law firm represented plaintiff's spouse in a highly contentious divorce action in Pennsylvania. During that proceeding, the lawyer sent a letter to a New Jersey bank that plaintiff had contacted about obtaining a mortgage on a house he hoped to purchase in New Jersey. Among other things, the lawyer's letter intimated that plaintiff was improperly using marital funds to purchase the home. After the bank denied plaintiff a mortgage, he filed an action in New Jersey against his spouse, the lawyer, and his firm for defamation and tortious interference with contractual relations.
The trial court dismissed the New Jersey action, finding that it did not have jurisdiction over the lawyer and the law firm and that the complaint was barred on the basis of forum non conveniens and the doctrine of res judicata. In this opinion, the court remands the matter to the trial court to permit plaintiff to engage in discovery on the questions of jurisdiction and forum non conveniens. The court also concludes that plaintiff's complaint was not barred on res judicata grounds.

BRIAN SULLIVAN VS. THE PORT AUTHORITY OF NEW YORK AND
NEW JERSEY, ET AL.
Plaintiff filed a complaint against the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and individual Port Authority employees, alleging retaliation and civil conspiracy in violation of the New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA), N.J.S.A. 34:19-1 to -14. We affirmed the trial court's grant of summary judgment based on a finding that the Port Authority is not subject to suit under CEPA.
The Port Authority is a bi-state agency created by a compact that prohibits unilateral action by one state without express authorization in the compact or the concurrence of the legislature of the other state. The corollary to this proposition is that the Port Authority may be subject to complementary or parallel state legislation. Under the complementary or parallel legislation principle, one compact state's law can be applied to the bi-state agency if it is substantially similar to the legislation of the other state. If there is no complementary legislation, then it must be determined whether the bi-state agency impliedly consented to unilateral state regulation.
We determined that the compact did not expressly provide for application of CEPA against the Port Authority. We then compared CEPA to the New York Whistleblower Law, N.Y. Lab. Law § 740, and held they were not substantially similar so as to alter the compact. We also held that the clear and unambiguous language in the state legislations creating the Port Authority and the lack of complementary and parallel whistleblower statutes confirmed that New York and New Jersey did not mutually intend to consent to suit against the Port Authority under CEPA.

Although tenant received a rent subsidy voucher under the State's Rental Assistance Program (S-RAP) and timely paid her portion of the monthly rent, the landlord obtained a judgment of possession because she failed to pay late fees, attorney's fees and court costs ("additional rent").
The court vacated the judgment of possession, holding that a tenant with an S-RAP voucher cannot be evicted based solely on the non-payment of additional rent because to do so contravenes applicable regulations.

GREG NOREN VS. HEARTLAND PAYMENT SYSTEMS, INC.
In previously ruling on the merits, the court, among other things, dismissed defendant's cross-appeal from the denial of summary judgment because defendant failed to comply with Rule 2:6-1(a)(1), which requires inclusion in the appendix of all items, and a statement of all items, presented to the trial court on the motion for summary judgment. Noren v. Heartland Payment Sys., Inc., __ N.J. Super. __, __ (App. Div. 2017) (slip op. at 14-15). Defendant moved for reconsideration, arguing that the cited Rule refers only to appeals "from a summary judgment," which, in defendant's view, could only mean an appeal from a grant of summary judgment, not a denial. The court denied the motion and rejected defendant's argument, holding that the Rule's critical phrase – "from a summary judgment" – incorporates appeals from any disposition of a motion for summary judgment.

A back pay award under the Law Against Discrimination (LAD) is not to be reduced by the amount of unemployment compensation which the plaintiff has received. The collateral source statute, N.J.S.A. 2A:15-97, does not apply to monetary awards under the Law Against Discrimination (LAD).

In this action, one condominium unit owner sued neighboring unit owners, seeking their participation in an investigation of the site for the purpose of removing the cloud on title imposed by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's open file, which was initiated years earlier when oil was found in a nearby brook. At the conclusion of a bench trial, the judge granted the relief sought by plaintiffs, and one of the neighboring owners appealed, arguing the New Jersey Spill Compensation and Control Act limited plaintiffs' private cause of action to a claim for contribution that required proof of defendants' actual discharge of contamination. The court agreed with the trial judge that an equitable remedy was appropriate -- and not precluded by the Spill Act -- and affirmed the judgment that compelled all the impacted property owners to initially share the cost of an investigation, subject to adjustment by later litigation if necessary.

Home Sports McLemore sets pace for Oilers
McLemore sets pace for Oilers
by Steve Porter
Photo by Tayhlor Sims
WOOD RIVER – William McLemore put his best foot forward for the East Alton-Wood River Oilers this fall and took a giant step in his cross country career.
The senior won four major races and paced the Oilers, who qualified as a team for the IHSA finals at Detweiller Park in Peoria. It was only the second time in school history that EA-WR runners advanced to state.
For his efforts in pacing the Oilers, McLemore has been selected as the AdVantage News' Male Prep Cross Country Runner of the Year.
"I had more confidence in myself this year and I was more relaxed," McLemore said. "I knew the competition and set goals to do better. I thought I had a good senior season and I really liked it."
EA-WR cross country coach Russ Colona seconds that emotion.
"Will worked as hard or harder than anyone I ever coached in any sport," he said.
"His work ethics and enthusiasm inspired his teammates to work very hard and reach for the ultimate goal of going to state."
It seemed as if McLemore was determined to make his senior season his best one. He experienced a frustrating junior season that was marked by injuries.
"I ran more this past summer than I did the summer before my junior season," McLemore said. "I had a hamstring injury my junior season and that hampered me. I was healthier this season."
He was healthy enough to win the New Athens Class 1A Regional, place first in invitationals at Jerseyville, Wood River and the Madison County Meet. He emerged as a multiple small-school champ at MadCo.
Overall, McLemore's top time was 15 minutes, 33 seconds, which he registered at Jacksonville. He also took fourth the sectional and finished 46th at state.
"The big thing was the wins gave me more confidence," McLemore said. "My main goal was to get better, make sure I had a good season and have fun with it."
He did all of that and more.
"It was a fun season," McLemore said. "It was also great that the entire team got to go to state. We really enjoyed that."
Colona added, "He was not a natural runner coming in as a freshman and did what was necessary to make himself better. He did not shy away from doing the work and studied his sport, taking in all the information he could find in many ways.
"It was great to see the respect he earned from other schools runners and coaches. He was not only a great runner for EA-WR but a great leader and ambassador for his sport. I enjoyed coaching him."
There's more running ahead for McLemore. Track season is set for the spring and he plans to compete in college running and focus his education on becoming a physical therapist.
"My goals for the track season are to get under 10 minutes in the 3,200-meters and make it to the state finals," he said of Eastern Illinois University in Charleston. After that, college should come calling.
McLemore said, "I want to run in college and try to become a good all-around runner for the team."
He has already been there and done that in high school.

Safe and Sound Schools: 2016 First Quarter Update
January, February, and March have come and gone with Safe and Sound Schools bringing its message to new communities and new social media channels.
This year's first quarter started with the culmination of the Shine A Light for Safer Schools campaign, the holiday fundraiser we launched last November. Safe and Sound Schools raised over $3,500 through online and mail donations, some of which has already been used to update our free online materials and website.
By mid January, Safe and Sound Schools turned its focus to onboarding new students from PRLab, Boston University's student-run public relations agency. This is Safe and Sound Schools' fourth time working with PRLab students who help the organization meet its outreach initiatives. We are lucky to have such great talent from BU to support our growing organization!
In the months of February and March, Safe and Sound team members travelled to several communities across the country. Michele travelled across the state of Tennessee, presenting to full houses of school administrators, educators, mental health professionals, and law enforcement in Knoxville, Murfreesboro, and Jackson, Tennessee. She then made her way to the Midwest to present to an audience of over 150 at the 2016 Tuscarawas County School Safety Summit in Tuscarawas County, Ohio. Michele concluded her February travels in Baltimore, Maryland. Joined by her husband, Bob Gay, Michele accepted a $20,000 endowment award from the BFG Community Foundation, an organization dedicated to affecting positive change in local communities by supporting charitable organizations.
In early March, Frank DeAngelis, Safe and Sound speaker & former principal of Columbine High School and Paul Timm, Safe and Sound advisor & author of School Security: How to Build and Strengthen a School Safety Program, presented at the Axis School Safety Symposium in Syracuse, NY. On the same day, Michele traveled back to the South, to Decatur, Alabama, where she presented to a room of approximately 400 administrators, educators, law enforcement, and mental health professionals at the 14th Annual Alabama Child Safety Conference.
By mid March, Safe and Sound Schools launched it's new website, complete with new additions, including a Press Room, Speaker's Bureau, and an improved user-friendly interface. We'll continue to add to the site this year.
March also found us busy in Massachusetts, with Michele attending the Massachusetts Juvenile Police Officers Association conference and working with three local school districts, to support the unique efforts of each community to improve school safety. We are excited to see our collaborative model take hold close to home and across the country!
