Instant communication and instant information are the supreme achievements of mankind. Everything else, every other advance, is incremental in nature. There is nothing left to achieve really. As we build on our technological achievements, the law of diminishing returns kicks in. The side effects, the network effects, start to pull us backward. So we turn inwards and upon ourselves.
We should have stopped at 2008. Now we are living through the beginning of the end.

Kamala Harris will likely be our 47th president and first female commander in chief. However Iām a just put it out there. A lot of black men are still cool on Kamala because her husband is white. Itās a subconscious thing. Even though interracial marriage has been normalized the past 40 years and we celebrate so many brothas who are married to non black women, it hits different for black men in regards to black women because of the legacy of slavery. Thatās just my 2 cents.

[quote]A 38-year-old woman collapsed and died after being bitten by one of her children's pet hamsters. The mother-of-two collapsed while outside a health centre near her home in Spain while accompanied by her two children, a 17-year-old and an 11-year-old. Tragically, the woman was only a few feet from the front door of the medical centre when she collapsed. An autopsy is expected to be carried out to determine whether the hamster bite contributed to her death.
[quote]In rare cases, diseases such as rabies and bacterial infections can pass from hamsters to humans through a bite. The woman may have also had a severe allergy to animals, such as rodents, and the bite may have triggered a reaction. Although a rare occurrence, it has happened in the past.

Companies are rapidly firing Gen Z employees just months after they hired them, according to a new report from Intelligent.com, but instead of putting the blame on G Z-ers, one expert told Newsweek whose fault it may really be.
The survey revealed that one in six businesses said they were hesitant to hire recent college graduates over concerns about how prepared they are for the work as well as their communication skills and professionalism.
And a whopping six in 10 employers had already fired college graduates who were hired in 2024. One in seven said they might refrain from hiring new college grads next year as well.
The survey looked at responses from nearly 1,000 business leaders in August, who revealed a strong skepticism from companies about how worthwhile Gen Z-ers are as employees.
"Many recent college graduates may struggle with entering the workforce for the first time as it can be a huge contrast from what they are used to throughout their education journey," Intelligent's Chief Education and Career Development Advisor Huy Nguyen said in the report.
"They are often unprepared for a less structured environment, workplace cultural dynamics, and the expectation of autonomous work. Although they may have some theoretical knowledge from college, they often lack the practical, real-world experience and soft skills required to succeed in the work environment."
And because Gen Z already has a stereotype of being lazy or uncooperative in the workplace, employers might be primed to find problems with the generation of workers that is adapting to full-time jobs for the first time.
"It can be easy for managers to buy into typical stereotypes of Gen Z and dismiss them entirely," Nguyen said. "However, companies have an equal responsibility to prepare recent graduates for their particular workplace and give them the best chance to succeed."
Across the board, 75 percent of companies reported that some or all of their recent college graduate hires were unsatisfactory.

Former hockey pro Janne Puhakka -- Finland's first openly gay player -- was found shot to death on Sunday ... and police believe his partner was behind the killing.
Puhakka was only 29.
According to a report out of Finland, Janne was found in his Henttaa Espoo home ... where he lived with his partner, 66-year-old veterinarian Rolf Nordmo.
Police said the death was a homicide and suspected Nordmo was the shooter. He was arrested at the scene without incident.
The murder is still under investigation.
Puhakka -- who started playing hockey when he was six -- launched his major league career in 2015 and played for the Blues, Espoo United, and Rapaces de Gap.
He was also on the national team roster and won the bronze in the Under 18 World Championship in 2013.
Puhakka opened up about his sexuality after hanging up his skates, revealing he had concealed being gay to avoid scrutiny in the sports world.
Puhakka was the first ice hockey player in the Finnish major leagues to come out as gay. In 2022, he wrote a memoir, "Ulos Kopista."
"We send our sincere condolences to his family, his relatives and all his former teammates," the Rapaces de Gap team said in a statement.
"Presenting in the team during the 2017/2018 season, Janne marked the staff and his teammates with his kindness and team spirit."
Nordmo has not been convicted of a crime.

Ukrainian military recruiters launched targeted raids at restaurants, shopping centres and a rock concert over the weekend, detaining men and press-ganging them into the army.
āGet away from me!ā one concertgoer shouted at three policemen as they pulled him towards a recruiting desk that had been set up on Friday outside the Palace of Sports in Kyiv, where Okean Elzy, a Ukrainian rock band, had been playing.
The manās face contorted in fear as he strained against the policemen, video footage showed. Several women filmed the policemen on their smartphones, shouting: āShame! Shame on you!ā
Policemen also waited to intercept men at Goodwine, a nearby shopping centre, and Avalon, a popular restaurant, according to reports.
Eyewitnesses said the police checked all the menās documents. Those who refused to show documents exempting them from military service, or whose documents were considered faulty, were dragged away.
Under Ukraineās martial laws, all men between the ages of 25 and 60 are eligible for the army. Men between 18 and 60 are also banned from leaving the country.
Facing a severe shortage of soldiers, Ukraine reduced the mobilisation age to 25 from 27 and scrapped an āonly partially eligibleā loophole in April. Punishment was also stiffened for men who did not arrive at their summons. Ukraine has also followed Russia by mobilising its prison population.
Western intelligence analysts estimate Russian casualties to stand at more than 650,000 soldiers. The data for Ukraineās war casualties have not been released, but its casualties are estimated to be a third or a quarter of Russiaās.
Fatigue and fear of being killed on frontlines have sapped Ukrainiansā enthusiasm for signing up to fight in a war that has now lasted for more than two and a half years.
Oleksandr Danylyuk, an associate fellow at the Royal United Services Institute in London, said: āMobilisation has begun to be perceived as a one-way ticket, where the only way to end service is to die or become disabled.ā
Some men are so desperate to escape mobilisation that they are risking their lives to break out of Ukraine.

Macy's covered up a violent 2008 sexual attack by Sean "Diddy" Combs at its flagship Herald Square, Manhattan store to protect a "multi-million-dollar" deal with Combs' clothing brand, Sean John, a new lawsuit alleges.
The worldwide department store chain was named as a defendant in one of at least six federal lawsuits, all alleging sexual assaults, filed against the hip-hop entrepreneur in Manhattan Monday.
The 19-page lawsuit is one of two filed Monday that names an outside company as a defendant beyond the companies belonging to Combs. It was filed on behalf of a "John Doe" who now lives in Ohio.
The plaintiff alleges that he was orally raped by Combs while working in the stockroom of the flagship store.
The plaintiff said he worked for Ecko, a rival clothing company to Combs' Sean John brand that was also carried by Macy's.
On the day of the attack, Combs entered into the stockroom with three armed bodyguards, the lawsuit says.
One or more of the guards struck him ā he may have been pistol-whipped, he alleges ā causing him to fall to his hands and knees, the lawsuit said.
The plaintiff says in the lawsuit that one or more of the bodyguards threatened to kill him.
The plaintiff said Combs demanded he perform oral sex on him, calling him by the name of the company he worked for, "Ecko." Combs proceeded to orally rape the plaintiff in what was described as a two-minute attack, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit alleges that after the assault, Combs grabbed armfuls of Sean John merchandise from the stockroom, went out onto the retail floor, and "began passing out merchandise to an adoring crowd, as if nothing had happened."
The lawsuit accuses Macy's of quickly covering up the incident.
The plaintiff reported it the same day to company security, but there was no follow-up, and he was soon barred from the store, the lawsuit alleges.
"Approximately three weeks later, Terry Lundgren, CEO of Macy's, pressured Ecko executives to fire plaintiff because Macy's had just signed a multi-million-dollar deal with Sean John Clothing," the suit says.
The plaintiff was eventually fired and told by Ecko that he could no longer live in his company-paid apartment in the city, the lawsuit says.
Ecko was not named as a defendant in the lawsuit. The company did not immediately return requests for comment from Business Insider after normal business hours on Monday.
The plaintiff "believes that the report of the assault was destroyed or otherwise purged from Macy's records, and no action was ever taken as a result of the report." He still "fears for his life," the lawsuit says.

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are back in the limelight for all the wrong reasons once again ā this time his association with Sean "Diddy" Combs. The drama has them doubling down on plans to move away from Hollywood and build a new life in Europe instead, a source exclusively tells In Touch.
āAshtonās so exasperated that once again heās being dragged through the mud because of his past associations,ā the insider says. āFirst it was Danny Masterson and now itās Diddy, and itās got him convinced that there are way better places out there to live than Hollywood. In his view the town is just a cesspool at this point.ā
The couple ā who met on the set of That ā70s Show in the late 1990s ā spent their summer in Europe, and even took their children to night two of Taylor Swiftās Eras tour at Londonās Wembley Stadium in June.
āThey had such a great time in Europe and in many ways the idea of moving there is topping their list right now because they figure that would be such a great place to live and raise their kids with a much more grounded lifestyle,ā the source continues. āThe only thing stopping them from making the move is work because they do still have a lot of business interests in the U.S. so the concern is that Europe may be too far away.ā
If the pair decide that an international move is too drastic for their family, Ashton, 46, has his sights set on another location to call home.
āNorthern California is very appealing to Ashton because he loves to be around all the tech entrepreneurs and itās somewhere they could give their kids a more normal life. The bottom line is they want to take the kids out of Hollywood and raise them somewhere more rural and away from all the superficiality and backbiting,ā the insider notes. āTheyāve just had it with Hollywood and just going up to Montecito isnāt enough of a clean break, theyād like to get much further away.ā
The A Lot Like Love actor came under fire following the September 16 arrest of Diddy on charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion. Old interview clips resurfaced of the Iowa native making light of her close relationship to the Bad Boys Records founder, 54.
āWe became fast friends,ā Ashton told host Sean Evans during a 2019 appearance on Hot Ones. āWe used to just hang out and watch football together.ā
In a separate resurfaced interview, Ashton laughed when asked about the depravity that went on at the infamous Diddy parties, saying, āIāve got a lot I canāt tell.ā
From the āIāll Be Missing Youā rapperās perspective, he and Ashton became friends amid the latterās success on MTVās practical joke series Punkād.
āI gave Ashton a call one day and said, āI heard you are going to punk me and I just don't think that's a good idea. If you do that, that will not end well for you, but I think we should work out a deal,āā the rapper recalled during a 2018 interview on The Late Late Show With James Corden.

2. The over-regulation and the criminalization and over-enforcement of every stupid little thing. Shoplifting is a crime. Being in possession of alcohol in a national park shouldnāt be.
3. The prudishness and the hang ups with nudity. Rape and child molestation should be sex crimes worthy of sex offender registration. Public urination and paying for sex shouldnāt be. And nudity at the lake, at the beach, and on TV should be seen as natural as it is in Europe.
4. The guns!

Famed explorer Christopher Columbus was likely Spanish and Jewish, according to a new genetic study conducted by Spanish scientists that aimed to shed light on a centuries-old mystery.
Scientists believe the explorer, whose expedition across the Atlantic in 1492 changed the course of world history, was probably born in western Europe, possibly in the city of Valencia.
They think he concealed his Jewish identity, or converted to Catholicism, to escape religious persecution.
The study of DNA contradicts the traditional theory, which many historians had questioned, that the explorer was an Italian from Genoa.
Columbus led an expedition backed by Spain's Catholic Monarchs seeking to establish a new route to Asia - but instead he reached the Caribbean.
His arrival there was the beginning of a period of European contact with the Americas, which would lead to conquest and settlement - and the deaths of many millions of indigenous people to diseases and war.
Countries have argued for years over the explorer's origin, with many claiming him as one of their own.

As I was putting two boxes in my cart, the soda stocking guy was beside me loading up six boxes of Shirley Temple 7Up, three diet, three regular.
He looked at me and said, "If you're interested in these, you better just grab them now. This is my third delivery, and people are snapping them up right away. They might wind up being worth something."
Again, as I am trash, I bought the three diets. A woman who was also standing there got the three regulars.
Trust me, I felt like an idiot, but whatever. I drank one when I got home. It's fine. Like a Cherry 7Up with a little extra sweetness, maybe. Nothing to be amazed about.
This morning, I get to work and people are talking about how this stuff is selling out fast and it's already on eBay for $35 for ten cans.

A lawyer for a new Sean āDiddyā Combs accuser claims that sheās been contacted about the āsale of one of the Diddy tapes,ā specifically a pornographic video featuring the embattled hip-hop mogul, indicted last week on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges, and someone āmore high-profileā than the rapper and Bad Boy founder.
āThere already have been tapes leaking around Hollywood being shopped around, ā¦ but one particular person contacted me to shop a particular video they were in possession of and to contact the person who was in the video to see if they were interested in purchasing the video before it became public knowledge,ā Ariel Mitchell-Kidd said Friday on NewsNationās Banfield. āI can tell the video was pornographic in nature. ā¦ This was in his Atlanta home, and it does seem the person isnāt looking into the video. To me, it doesnāt seem like that person knows theyāre being videotaped.ā
Mitchell-Kidd also said she was contacted a few weeks ago by a new client who claims Combs raped her in 2018 and filed a police report at the time.
āShe called me and told me about her assault and her escape,ā Mitchell-Kidd said. āShe was at a friendās house who had industry ties, and Diddy decided to come to the house.ā
Mitchell-Kidd claims her client learned Combs was planning on sex trafficking her when he arrived.
āIt led to her being served a drink. She started to feel woozy. Combs sexually assaulted her with an inanimate object,ā Mitchell-Kidd said. āAnd then directed another gentleman to sexually assault her while he watched and pleasured himself.ā
Mitchell-Kidd said her client was able to escape, running into the street, which was witnessed by a neighbor.

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris slammed Republican nominee Donald Trump at her rally in Erie, Pennylania, using her rivalās own words.
Literally.
Harris made the rare move of airing footage of the former president on a big screen.
The vice president set it up by telling the audience: āAfter all these years we know who Donald Trump is. He is someone who will stop at nothing to claim power for himself. And you donāt have to take my word for it. I have said for a while now, watch his rallies, listen to his words, he tells us who he is and he tells us what he would do if he is elected president. So, here tonight, I will show you one example of Donald Trumpās world view and intentions.ā
āPlease roll the clip,ā Harris said, drawing gasps from the crowd.
A montage of Trump fear mongering about the āenemies from withinā and ranting that he may use the military to handle āradical left lunaticsā if he wins back the White House then played.
The clip ended and the audience booed.
āSo you heard his words coming from him,ā said Harris.
Trump is ātalking about that he considers anyone who doesnāt support him or who will not bend to his will, an enemy of our country,ā she continued. āItās a serious issue. He is saying that he would use the military to go after them. Think about this.ā
āThis is among the reasons I believe so strongly that a second Trump term would be a huge risk for America and dangerous,ā she added. āDonald Trump is increasingly unstable and unhinged and he is out for unchecked power.ā

In WSJ survey, economists see Donald Trumpās plans as more inflationary by a larger margin than in July when President Biden was on the ticket.
"While neither Trump nor Harris has expressed much appetite for fiscal rectitude, 65% of economists see Trumpās proposed policies putting more upward pressure on the federal deficit, up from 51% in July. "
"the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates Trumpās plans would widen federal budget deficits by $7.5 trillion over the next decade, more than twice the expected increase under Harris."
"Economists saw less daylight between the two candidates on overall economic growth: 45% said output would expand faster under Harris, 37% said the economy would grow faster under Trump, and 18% saw no material difference. "

Originally retired from revenue service in the 60s and preserved in the United States, in 1998 she was purchased by the Canadian Pacific for a steam program. The restoration took 2 years and cost roughly $3.5 million dollars (adjusted for inflation, this translates to almost $6 million as of today).
She recently completed a tour of the recently Merged Canadian Pacific Kansas City Southern Railwayās network from Calgary, Alberta, all the way to Mexico City. At 10,000 miles round trip, it is most likely the longest steam locomotive excursion in the world.

A great thread that had my reading for hours. Tommy Lee Jones and Jared Leto come up with unsurprising regularity. Some, like Shaq have severe swings in reactions, some calling him the greatest, most friendly and others hating him. Michael Jordan and Kobe are not favorites either. This is a one of the best posts I've ever read on Musk:
Elon Musk. He stayed at a mountain resort that I worked at in 2018 . He was luckily only there for 3 days but he was an utter terror the entire time he was there.
He refused to be checked in at the reception area and demanded a private check in at his cabin which is fine but we ask ahead of time so we can staff properly for the later arrivals.
He asked for the youngest female concierge on staff to be sent to the check in with nobody else for "security" reasons. I took the check in myself instead of sending the 19 year old and took the largest and oldest driver I could find for security reasons.
He wanted the personal cell phone numbers for all female concierge staff. I said that is against out policy and set him up with the resort app so he could contact whoever was on duty for a prompt answer.
He harassed every single female employee so nastily that by the time he had been there for 12 hours every department switched him to only male staff. He didn't tip any of the wait staff or guides for any activities. He booked a private horseback ride that a wrangler was brought in specially for the day and then refused to go because he didn't like the colors of any of the horses available , and he wanted to ride a really "butch and muscular" horse. He meant a draft horse, which we had for pulling wagons but none for riding.
He also had insane demands. He wanted a 80 year old beautiful ponderosa pine cut down because he didn't like how the light hit it at sunset. He wanted shock collars put on the squirrels to stop them from being too loud. And he wanted us to trap a grizzly bear and bring it to his cabin for a few hours so he could take pictures and study it.
He was the rudest, stupidest and most arrogant POS I have ever encountered.

Nicole Kidman was not having Salma Hayek's bossy behavior at a recent fashion show. Kidman was posing for a photographer with Salma and Katy Perry when Salma tried to turn Kidman around, and Nicole did not like it at all. She tells her point blank, "Don't touch me!" and walks away.

Internet admiration left just as easily as it came for Hurricane Milton survivor-turned viral sensation Lt. Dan after he dropped the N-word during a livestream.
Real name Joseph Malinowski, the 54-year-old Tampa, Florida, resident became an overnight celebrity after he had to have his 20-foot boat pulled back to shore by a kind citizen.
When Malinowski, a disabled veteran with one leg, said that he planned to ride out the storm in his boat with his worldly possessions a star was born, and social media users worried about his health and safety as the superstorm made landfall Oct. 10.
Fourteen deaths were recorded in the aftermath of the storm. However, Malinowski survived seemingly unscathed after taking shelter nearby. But in a video he posted Friday giving fans an update on his condition, things went awry.
Talking to the Kick social media platform, Malinowski claimed that he may have been tricked out of receiving money donated to him because of another TikTok user.
āIf you want to get back into my good graces, you have to take time,ā he said, adding, āāCause once I cut you off, youāre done [N-word]. Iām sorry.ā
Reactions to the clip ranged from disgust to disbelief.
āLt dan only just got signed to kick and already dropped the N-word on streamš¤£,ā wrote one social media commentator.
Another added, āThis generation of mine and Gen Z elevates the worst people, constantly. Itās deplorable. This loser Lt Dan just said the N word streaming. Heās a snake w/ other snakes in the grass. Hope he is ignored into oblivion.ā

A portion of the world's iciest, coldest continent is "greening" at a dramatic rate because of global warming, scientists announced in a recent study. In fact, the research showed that vegetation cover across the Antarctic Peninsula has increased more than tenfold over the last four decades.
āThe landscape is still almost entirely dominated by snow, ice and rock, with only a tiny fraction colonized by plant life," said study co-author Thomas Roland, from the University of Exeter in the U.K., in a statement.
āBut that tiny fraction has grown dramatically ā showing that even this vast and isolated āwildernessā is being affected by anthropogenic (human-caused) climate change,ā he said.
Greening on the Antarctic Peninsula increased from less than 1.1 square miles in 1986 to nearly 14.3 square miles in 2021.
The warmer Antarctica gets, the greener it gets: "Antarctica has experienced significant increases in temperature over the past 60 years," the study said. "With rates of warming highest in the West Antarctic and Antarctic Peninsula regions and occurring much faster than global average warming."
Specifically, temperatures on the peninsula have risen by more than 5 degrees Fahrenheit since 1950, a much bigger increase than seen elsewhere in the world, said the study, which was published in the journal Nature Geoscience.
And the Antarctic Peninsula is warming at a rate that exceeds the global average, with extreme heat events becoming increasingly frequent in the region, according to the study.
The research suggests the of greening in Antarctica will continue to increase
Study co-author Olly Bartlett, from the University of Hertfordshire, said: āSoil in Antarctica is mostly poor or non-existent, but this increase in plant life will add organic matter, and facilitate soil formation ā potentially paving the way for other plants to grow. This raises the risk of non-native and invasive species arriving, possibly carried by tourists, scientists or other visitors to the continent.ā
The new research used satellite images to determine that a greening trend across the Antarctic Peninsula is occuring and increasing.
The research is āreally important," Jasmine Lee, a conservation scientist at the British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge, UK, told the journal Nature. Although other studies have found evidence that vegetation on the peninsula is changing in response to climate change, āthis is the first study thatās taken a huge-scale approach to look at the entire regionā, she told Nature.
The āphenomenalā rate of expansion of greenery, Roland told Nature, highlights "the unprecedented changes that humans are imposing on Earthās climate."

Britainās next leading man? Meet Louis Partridge, the young actor taking over fashion and film alike
Heās dating one of the worldās most famous popstars, heās walked the runways for globally-revered designers, and heās about to share the screen with Cate Blanchett ā is Louis Partridge the new leading light of British cinema?
With his upcoming role in dynastic biopic House of Guinness, which chronicles the tragedies and triumphs of the family of Anglo-Irish billionaires, British actor Louis Partridge will need to get to grips with some of modern historyās most illustrious power couples. Think Lady Brigid Guinness marrying Prince Frederick of Prussia (they fell in love while she nursed wounds he sustained in a not-so regal tractor accident), or the relationship between the most swinging of sixties socialites, Tara Browne and the model Suki Poitier.
And while 21-year-old Louis has already proven himself to be quite the actor ā holding his own alongside screen icons like Hugh Grant and Julie Walters in Paddington 2, or Bryan Cranston in Argyle ā he may be able to draw from lived experience when he takes on the loves and losses of the Guinness family.

Donald Trumpās estranged niece is accusing the former president of having a ānew ownerā because of his increasingly close relationship with tech billionaire Elon Musk.
āDonald Trump has always been for sale,ā Mary Trump wrote in a Substack post on Saturday.
āGiven this decades-long pattern, itās not surprising that the worldās richest fascist, South African jumping bean Elon Musk, would also be interested in purchasing a few shares in a man who is willing to sell whatever he can get his hands on āwhether itās steaks or American national security ā because he values money more than anything,ā she added.
For Musk, Mary Trump argued, the support is āa safe bet because he knows, if Donald is elected, heāll do anything Musk wants him to do.ā
Musk, who reportedly initially wanted to endorse Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the 2024 election, has devoted considerable time and attention to supporting the Trump campaign of late.
Musk regularly touts Trump to his millions of followers on his social media platformX, and joined the former president at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, earlier this month ā an event which saw Trump return to the scene of the July assassination attempt for the first time.
Musk also founded a pro-Trump super PAC thatās reportedly spent around $80m supporting the former president. The PAC is one of the key organizations forming the backbone of the Trump campaignās unorthodox get-out-the-vote strategy, which has relied unusually strongly on outside groups instead of more tightly controlled campaign efforts.
The group has resorted to eye-catching tactics, like paying potential voters to sign up for a petition expressing support for Trump-ian takes on issues like freedom of speech and the right to bear arms.
Trump, for his part, has welcomed the support with open arms, praising Musk as a genius and promising to appoint him to run a government commission presiding over massive spending cuts.
Such a position would put Musk in a highly unique and influential position, especiallly as a businessman whose firms like SpaceX have contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars with the federal government.
The Trump campaign has also leaned on Musk during key moments in the campaign, reportedly successfully lobbying Muskās X social network to prevent circulation of links leading to a reporterās articles containing material that was hacked from the Trump campaign.

Hip-hop mogul T.I. and his wife Tameka āTinyā Harris scored a massive $71 million jury award Monday after winning their third court trial over claims toy titan MGA Entertainment violated the intellectual property rights of their teen pop group OMG Girlz with its wildly popular āL.O.L. Surprise! O.M.G.ā line of dolls.
Jurors awarded the couple and their companies $17.9 million in real damages and a whopping $53.6 million in punitive damages following a three-week trial in a federal courtroom in Santa Ana, California.
āI mean, wow. They did more than I thought they would,ā Tiny tells Rolling Stone after she reacted to the eye-popping award. āI would have been happy with whatever. They blessed us more than beyond. We wanted to thank the jurors so bad, but we didnāt get the opportunity.ā
In a complex verdict read Monday afternoon, the jurors said 13 dolls among more than 30 at issue infringed on the trade dress and misappropriated the name, image, and likeness of the all-female band that T.I. and Tiny formed in 2009 with Tinyās daughter Zonnique āStarā Pullins as a core member. A 14th doll violated the groupās trade dress while a 15th misappropriated the OMG Girlzās name, image and likeness, the jury found.
āI think justice was served. I think itās a testament to the relentlessness and resilience of my wife, daughter and nieces,ā T.I. tells Rolling Stone by phone, minutes after the verdict was read. āWeāre just happy we were able to come out on top and fight for creatives and our intellectual property that large corporations seem to think is just public domain and free for all to come and grab and use.ā He called the verdict a win for āthe people who actually put hard work and effort into building and creating things from nothing.ā
During the trial, MGAās lawyer called the coupleās lawsuit a āmoney grab.ā T.I. said he was happy the jury didnāt agree. āI think that was a bully tactic, trying to paint me as the bad guy when really, they were the [bad] ones,ā he says. āThey were the ones that came and ripped us off, and [they] expected us to not have the audacity to stand up and speak for ourselves. ā¦ That kind of condescension comes from when youāre not really in touch with the reality of culture after youāve gone so long kind of having it your way and nobody really standing up and speaking up against you.ā
Outside the courthouse, Tiny thanked her legal team, including John Keville, Chante Westmoreland, Robert Green, and BāIvory LaMarr. āAt the end of the day, the evidence showed [MGA] stole from us. They stole from our creation,ā she tells Rolling Stone. āIām glad we stuck with it. No one could tell me they did not steal from us.ā
At trial, T.I. and Tiny alleged MGA marketed seven specific dolls with looks that copied the way the OMG Girlz appeared at āvery specific public eventsā or in publicized photos. MGA denied the allegations. Its billionaire founder Isaac Larian testified that T.I., Tiny, and the three members of the OMG Girlz ā Zonnique āStarā Pullins, Bahja āBeautyā Rodriguez, and Breaunna āBabydollā Womack ā played no role in the design of his dolls. He called them āextortionists.ā
Pullins, Rodriguez, and Womack attended the trial and testified. They hugged in the hallway outside the courtroom after the verdict. āIām so grateful and overwhelmed with joy,ā Womack says. Pullins adds: āWhen the judge asked if we had a memorable trade dress and everyone raised their hands, I got so emotional. We all silently cried.ā

Captain Lee Rosbach is keeping up his relevancy by speaking about the hit reality TV series that made him famous. The face of Below Deck left in the middle of the tenth season and was replaced temporarily by Captain Sandy Yawn.
The event soured their professional relationship after Sandy fired Camille Lamb and failed to inform Lee. Also, both captains were commenting on the incident at the time. During a recent episode of his Nightcap tour, Captain Lee named Sandy as his least favorite on the Below Deck series, but he probably could have just as easily said, āNo comment.ā
Captain Lee said he ādoesnāt have to like people to work with themā
A TikTok showed Lee answering the question to name his least favorite cast member.
āMy least favorite? Captain Sandy,ā Captain Lee said in the video. āAnd we all know why. I donāt like her. Normally I donāt have to like people to work with them, I can work with almost anyone. I donāt have to like them. But if they do their job, keyword, do your job. Do it properly and I can put up with almost anything. Donāt do your job, and then pretend to be something youāre not.ā
The crowd gasped in response. Fans would know that Lee did not approve of how Sandy managed the yacht in his absence.
At the time that Camilleās termination was aired, Captain Lee tweeted, āI would have fired her. but prior to that I would have notified the Captain who I was [replacing] what I was doing and why, not after the fact.ā
In February 2023, Sandy offered a response in the form of an interview with Us Weekly. She defended herself by saying she didnāt want to burden Lee while he was struggling with his health.
āHeās in the hospital. Whoās gonna call and say, āCan I fire Camille?ā Never in a million years would I do that,ā Sandy said.
Clearly, this feud hasnāt resolved itself. And may never.

A dramatic pattern shift will bring the chilliest air since spring to millions of people in the central and eastern United States this week, making areas that have struggled so far to shed lingering warmth feel more like November than October.
Extended periods of fall chill have been hard to come by for much of the country since the season began last month. But the combination of an expansive cold front and an upcoming surge of cold, Canadian air, will change that and temperatures could drop to 10 to 15 degrees below average by midweek.
The first aspect of this cooldown ā a far-reaching cold front ā began over the weekend. This cold front swept from the north-central US and will cross the eastern half of the US by late Monday, ushering in a true autumn chill for some along the way.
The coldest temperatures will remain in the Plains and Midwest Monday, before even chillier air out of Canada gets pushed much farther south.
High temperatures from the Midwest and Northeast to the South will be seasonably cool Monday but trend downward Tuesday. Tuesday could be the coldest day of the week in Chicago, where the high temperature could struggle to reach 50. Chicago hasnāt had a high in the 50s since April.
Temperatures will drop again on Wednesday for many areas outside the Midwest. Wednesday is likely to be the coolest day since spring for millions, and in many locations, itāll feel more like late November than October.
āTruly fall-like weather is forecast ā¦ through the start of the weekendā farther south, the National Weather Service in Atlanta said Monday.
The high temperature in Washington, DC, on Wednesday could struggle to reach the mid-50s ā 10 to 15 degrees lower than normal for mid-October.
Atlanta could struggle to break into the low 60s on Wednesday and remain in the 60s through Friday. The city hasnāt had a high temperature reading below 70 degrees since May and typically tops out around 75 degrees this time of year.
Wednesday will also be the chilliest day of the week for large portions of the Northeast, with highs in the 40s and 50s for many. With daytime temperatures this chilly, it leaves room for overnight temperatures to possibly dip below freezing.
āFrost and freeze conditions are probable for several nights and in many areas this week,ā the National Weather Service in State College, Pennsylvania, warned Monday.
Freeze alerts are in effect through Tuesday morning for parts of Pennsylvania. More could be issued in the coming days for other parts of the Northeast and chillier spots of the mid-Atlantic.

Two weeks after Houston lawyer Tony Buzbee said he would soon be representing at least 120 accusers against Sean āDiddyā Combs, the attorney filed his first six sexual assault complaints on Monday ā including one from a man who claims he was a teen at the time of his encounter with the music mogul.
All six lawsuits, which were obtained by TheWrap, were filed in the Southern District of New York per the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act, with the allegations stemming from between 1995 and 2021. Buzbee is representing four John Does and two Jane Does in these cases.
One of the four anonymous male victims claims he was 16 years old when he was sexually assaulted at one of Combsā White Parties in the Hamptons in 1998.
According to the then-teenage victim, he was invited to the party at Combsā mansion by a mutual friend, where he bumped into the rapper (an apparent picture of the pair from the event in question is included in the legal documents). āCombs took an interest in John Doeā and they engaged in pleasant conversation about the entertainment industry, per the lawsuit.
āWhen John Doe admitted his voice was not great, Combs assured him that did not matter. Combs made clear that the only thing that mattered was having the right look for the industry, and with it, Combs could transform Doe ā or anybody ā into a star.ā
However, āCombs abruptly told John Doe that he needed to drop his pants. John Doe, caught completely off guard, confusingly asked Combs to repeat himself. Combs made himself clear. He instructed John Doe to drop his pants and expose his penis so that Combs could inspect it, explaining it was a rite of passage and the route to becoming a star, and also as a way to prove himself,ā the suit alleges.
āOut of fear, anxiety and the imbalanced power dynamic between himself and Combs, John Doe then dropped his pants and exposed his penis as Combs previously instructed,ā it continues. āCombs moved closer and grabbed John Doeās penis and genitals with his hand. He firmly cupped and held onto John Doeās genitals for an extended period of time.
During this time, Combs moved his hand in such a fashion to manipulate John Doeās genitals, squeezing and feeling them ā¦ Combs abruptly then let go of John Doeās genitals and told him that his people would be in touch. Combs continued with his party as if nothing had happened, but for John Doe, everything had changed.ā
āWe will let the allegations in the filed complaints speak for themselves and will work to see that justice is done,ā Buzbee shared in a statement to Rolling Stone. āWe expect to be filing many more cases over the next several weeks naming Mr. Combs and others as defendants as we continue to gather evidence and prepare the filings.ā
Meanwhile, Diddyās attorney Erica Wolff issued the following statement to TMZ following Buzbeeās initial press conference: āAs Mr. Combsā legal team has emphasized, he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus. That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.
Mr. Buzbee has not yet filed a single case in any jurisdiction. Mr. Combs looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court if and when claims are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.ā

The longtime leader of the York Theater Company, a small New York nonprofit known for its emphasis on musical theater, is acknowledging making āhurtfulā comments about diversity that he says prompted his abrupt departure from the organization.
James Morgan, who has served as producing artistic director of the York since 1979, and who has been with the company for 50 years, issued a letter on Monday saying that he had suffered a stroke in 2022, and attributed his behavior to that medical incident. āDuring a recent staff meeting, I responded to a colleagueās concerns about the diversity of our audiences in a way that was inappropriate and hurtful,ā Morgan wrote in the letter. āThe words came out ā at a raised volume that has been one of the side effects of the stroke ā differently than I intended them.ā
The York is a niche company, founded in 1969, that operates out of a church on Manhattanās Upper East Side. During fiscal 2023, it had an annual budget of $2.2 million, according to a filing with the Internal Revenue Service; Morgan was paid a salary of $95,000. On Friday at 5 p.m., the company issued a news release saying that Morgan had āresigned from his duties, effective immediately.ā Jim Kierstead, the boardās president, raised the diversity issue in his statement in the news release, saying, āWe will soon be announcing plans for a future filled with diversity, talent, and musical theater in order to continue our long legacy of supporting artists of all backgrounds.ā
It quickly became clear that Morganās departure had been preceded by the resignation of Gerry McIntyre, the theaterās associate artistic director. In a resignation letter circulated to board members and posted on Facebook, McIntyre said he had raised concerns about a lack of audience diversity during a video meeting, and that Morgan āstarted to yell at me.ā About one of the theaterās recent shows, he quoted Morgan as saying: āI want you to find anyone who would like this except this audience.ā McIntyre said, āHis comment immediately struck me as racist.ā He added, āThe tirade and venom was horrible.ā
Neither McIntyre nor Morgan immediately responded to requests for comment, but in his letter, Morgan said: āThereās no question I was being defensive. Iāve tried to make diversity a consideration in everything we do ā our programming, our outreach, our hiring, our everything. Were we late coming to the table? Yes. Could we ā should we ā have been doing more? Always. So, I am heartsick that the words that came out of my mouth reflected the exact opposite of how I feel.ā
He added, āIāve also learned that my aphasia, an after-effect of the stroke, has caused hurt and misunderstandings among the staff. I should have realized that sooner. Whether because of ego or stubbornness ā or maybe just cluelessness ā I didnāt. And I apologize.ā

The Neighborhood currently resembles my life.
My next door neighbor is like Dave Johnson. A happy go lucky, extroverted guy constantly knocking on my door inviting me to do something with him. I'm like Calvin Butler but I'm not married. I am however slightly curmudgeonly and often peek out the window first to make sure neighbor isn't outside before I go out to car or mailbox. But I do like him and think he's a good guy, just bit overly exuberant about everything.

Christina Aguilera loves her ultra skinny figure, but itās caused a lull in her love life, according to an insider. The source exclusively tells Life & Style that her long suffering fiancĆ©, Matthew Rutler, is tearing his hair out in frustration.
āChristinaās all about looking as sexy as she can these days. Sheās constantly showing off her body and parading around in skin tight clothes,ā the insider reveals. āMost people probably assume sheās got a hot sex life to go with her hot body, but itās actually the total opposite.ā
The source continues, āApparently, she and Matt used to have a way better sex life, but these days itās DOA because sheās just never in the mood. Itās not something thatās ever been an issue in their relationship before so of course Matt is blaming her drastic weight loss. Plus, although Christina denies taking Ozempic or any of the other weight loss drugs, decreased libido is one of the possible side effects so itās not hard to put two and two together.ā
However, according to the insider, the āGenie in a Bottleā hit maker, 43, ādoesnāt seem to think itās a problem.ā
āSheās so caught up in looking good and all the stuff going on with her career, but itās certainly doing a number on Matt. He feels like their connectionās just not the same as it used to be. Heās been complaining to friends and saying he wishes sheād gain some weight and start acting like herself again,ā the source concludes.
The news of Mattās concerns about their love life comes on the heels of fans worrying that Christina might be taking her weight loss too far.
āChristina has been losing weight for the past year and is feeling more confident than she has in ages,ā a separate insider told Life & Style on Thursday, October 10. āStill, people are starting to wonder if perhaps sheās taking it too far. She looks smaller than she did in her teen years. Itās really shocking to see in-person.ā
The āI Turn to Youā singer has never addressed whether or not sheās used weight loss medication to shed some pounds, but the source said she feels āpressure to compete with the younger pop stars.ā
However, when Christina sat down for an interview with Glamour in August, she explained that she didnāt want her children to obsess over their weight due to societyās often unrealistic standards similar to how she felt as a teen.
āYour kids trigger things in you that you donāt want them to go through, and itās almost like youāre reliving this whole thing again,ā the āLady Marmaladeā songstress told the outlet on August 15. āWhen youāre a teenager, you have a very different body than when youāre in your 20s. I started to fill out, and then that was unacceptable because it was like, āOh, sheās getting thicker.ā Then I had industry people: āThey liked your body and how you were as a skinny teenager.āā
As for the rumors about how she lost weight? Christina said she was past the point of worrying about what people whispered about.
āI have a maturity now where I just donāt give a fāk about your opinion,ā the Burlesque star said. āIām not going to take it on. It must be your responsibility to take up your space. Other peopleās opinions of me are not my business.ā

Bath and Body Works is pulling their new holiday candle off their website, just days after the candle's big launch on their social media for the shopping season. The new seasonal candle, 'Snowed In', were pulled because the artwork on the labels are being mistaken for KKK members and not a close-up of a cut-out paper snowflake, as intended. The outer edges of the snowflake are white and cone shaped, with two holes cut out near the center.
The backlash from customers was rather quick and spread across their social media. Once this was brought to the company's attention, the candles disappeared from the website with an apology.
āI have never seen a snowflake that looks like that,ā one Instagram user commented.
āThis wasnāt an accident,ā said another.
āWe apologize to anyone weāve offended and are swiftly working to have this item removed and are evaluating our process going forward,ā the Bath and Body Works spokesperson said.

A former Los Angeles police detective for years hid the truth about how she killed her ex's new wife. Now, she could go free.
The family of Sherri Rasmussen is outraged that a California board recommended that her killer is eligible for parole.
A former Los Angeles police detective was convicted of murdering her ex-boyfriendās wife in 2012, more than two decades after Sherri Rasmussen was killed in her Southern California condo.
But last month parole officials concluded that Stephanie Lazarus, the former detective who was sentenced to 27 years to life in prison, is eligible for parole. And Rasmussenās relatives are outraged that the woman who hid the truth about the murder and continued to work as a law enforcement officer for more than 20 years could go free.
Lazarus, now 63 and incarcerated southeast of Los Angeles, pleaded not guilty during her trial and had not publicly admitted to her role in the 1986 killing until a parole suitability hearing on Nov. 16, according to two relatives who attended the hearing.
Connie Rasmussen, Sherri Rasmussenās older sister, said in her family's first interview about the decision that while Lazarus acknowledged killing Sherri during the hearing, she did not apologize to relatives and appeared to downplay the seriousness of the crime, saying that she hadnāt intended to kill Sherri when she went to the Van Nuys condo on Feb. 24, 1986.

She didnāt ask to be the center of attention, but she now is. Kamala Harrisās step daughter Ella Emhoff is now being unfavorably compared to Ivanka Trump after her appearance at this yearās Democratic National Convention.
Thatās because there are some critics out there who think Ella could have done a better job of representing herself or at least dressing the part on what might be her step motherās most important moment of her political career.
One person even showed a side by side photo of Ella and Ivanka on X (formerly Twitter) and captioned it with, āOne need only compare a photo of Ella Emhoff to Ivanka at the RNC to understand why itās an issue.ā
āIf your children canāt look dignified in public, how can you be expected to effectively lead your constituents. Itās disorder all the way down.ā
Another critic wrote, āThereās even no comparison. Even Trumpās granddaughter was beautiful and dressed impeccable on top of speaking very well for her age.āā
āExactly ā everyone in the family is always well presented and looks respectful in public!ā
Another critic wrote, āThatās what makes it bad ā if she was 16 I might be more forgiving, but sheās 25 and still dressing and acting like a teenager.ā
āIvanka does look personable though, whereas Ella looks like she just got the wrong fast food order.ā
Another critic wrote, āI noticed this last night and thought the same thing ā there is ZERO standards or accountability in that party, even in the little things. You can see it when viewing the people in the crowd.ā
āIām not going to criticize anyone who doesnāt want to wear makeup or be frilly, but they always have the ugliest, badly fitting clothes, and often greasy hair.ā

She wrote many compliments about how well-read I was and well-educated and she ended it āshe lacks only an eyeā. I didnāt realize how devastating that was when I was very young. Now I understand that that one sentence was horrific and basically said I had no taste. She was a Clement Greenberg clone and only liked Stuart Davis and Jack Bush, and denounced me because I didnāt care for them.
Despite all As and A+ from a very good school, I only got into one university out of the four I applied to.

A shame weāll never know more about her. She was a talented comic actor. Even Pauline Kael said so. But Jan was also a basket case. Kevin Nealon said she seemed a little lost even before her motherās death in 1986. The death of her father, followed closely by the murder of Phil Hartman, seemed to send her into a spiral and 9/11 sealed the deal.
She spent the last years of her life living in a holler near Bearsville, NY. She had leukemia, went into remission and about 5 years later, was diagnosed with chemo-resistant neck cancer. She opted to forgo treatment and died in her brotherās care.
Jan shunned computers, showbiz, family, friends and her own health. She said if she were married sheād be in prisonā¦kids, death row. Jan dated Nealon for a couple years, but he broke up with her after the first SNL season. She then lived with an artist for a few years. Who knows what happened with that. And her relationship with Phil Hartman has been the subject of rumors for decades, which were exacerbated by Brynn Hartman threatening Jan in letters never sent.
I think we only saw the edge of her talent. She just wanted live with her demons, not Hollywood or sobriety. In the end, thatās exactly what happened

As the nearly 65,000 residents of hard-hit Rutherford County, North Carolina, struggle to clear endless mud and debris left behind by Hurricane Helene, help has hit a roadblock.
Federal Emergency Management Agency crews in North Carolina were forced to relocate due to a reported armed threat against workers, first reported by The Washington Post.
An email sent by the U.S. Forest Service to federal responders in Rutherford County alerted them of an apparent standdown after National Guard troops reportedly encountered armed militia saying they were "hunting FEMA."
Out of an abundance of caution, FEMA said its disaster assistance teams will be stationed at fixed locations instead of going door-to-door, which has been the agency's common practice in the past.
One person was arrested in connection to the threat, CBS News confirmed on Monday.
"FEMA continues to support communities impacted by Helene and help survivors apply for assistance. For the safety of our dedicated staff and the disaster survivors we are helping, FEMA has made some operational adjustments. Disaster Recovery Centers will continue to be open as scheduled, survivors continue to register for assistance, and we continue to help the people of North Carolina with their recovery," FEMA said in a statement to CBS News.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency temporarily halted some aid operations over the weekend in parts of western North Carolina impacted by Hurricane Helene because of threats targeting government workers, local officials said.
The threats caused FEMA employees to temporarily stop accepting in-person applications for federal assistance in some of North Carolina's mountain communities, according to a statement posted Sunday on social media by the Ashe County Emergency Management Department, which said FEMA employees would not be staffed in the towns of Lansing or Riverview.
"It is our understanding that all FEMA reps in NC were stood down due to threats occurring in some counties (not Ashe) but we have not received any official correspondence on this issue from FEMA," the post said. Later Sunday, the Ashe County Emergency Management Department said FEMA would begin accepting in-person applications for assistance on Monday.

Donald Trump is ramping up his rhetoric depicting his political rivals and critics as criminals, while dropping a long trail of suggestions that he favors outlawing political speech that he deems misleading or challenges his claims to power.
In a speech Friday in Aurora, Colorado, the Republican presidential nominee blasted the immigration system and lobbed a rhetorical grenade at his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris.
āSheās a criminal. Sheās a criminal,ā said Trump, who was found guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in his New York hush money trial. āShe really is, if you think about it.ā
Itās a pattern of messaging that has long been part of Trumpās stump speeches but has escalated significantly in his 2024 candidacy. In the final stretch to the Nov. 5 election, the former president has developed a tendency to claim that speech he disapproves of is illegal, even if it is protected by the First Amendment.
A questionable cut of a ā60 Minutesā Harris interview? āTotally illegal,ā Trump wrote on X, saying it makes Harris look better and that CBS should have its broadcast license revoked.
The Harris campaign editing headlines in paid Google ads? āTotally Illegal,ā he wrote, vowing that Google āwill pay a big priceā for it.
Democrats are trying to āillegally hideā part of his statement calling on rioters to be peaceful on Jan. 6, he claimed this month.
In August, Trump told a crowd in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, that criticisms of judges who have ruled in alignment with him should be banned. āI believe itās illegal what they do,ā Trump said. āI believe they are playing the ref. Theyāre constantly criticizing our great ā some of our greatest justices and a lot of great judges. ā¦ Playing the ref with our judges and our justices should be punishable by very serious fines and beyond that.ā
[bold]āThis is out of the autocratic playbookā[/bold]
An expert who studies authoritarianism and fascism said Trumpās rhetoric about criminalizing dissent is familiar, and could carry serious implications for the country if heās elected president.
āThis is out of the autocratic playbook. As autocrats consolidate their power once theyāre in office, anything that threatens their power, or exposes their corruption, or releases information thatās harmful to them in any way becomes illegal,ā said Ruth Ben-Ghiat, a historian and professor at New York University who wrote the 2020 book āStrongmen: From Mussolini to the Present.ā
āHeās actually rehearsing, in a sense, what he would be doing as head of state, which is what Orban does, Modi is doing, Putin has long done,ā she said, referring to the leaders of Hungary, India and Russia, respectively. āJust as thereās a divide now because of this brainwashing about who is a patriot and who is a criminal about Jan. 6, right? In the same way, telling the truth in any area ā journalists, scientists, even people like me, anybody who is engaged in objective inquiry, prosecutors, of course ā they become criminal elements and they need to be shut down.ā
Some Harris voters say Trump is channeling dictators.
āHe reminds me of Hitler and the rise to power,ā said Dan Geiger, a retired Pittsburgh resident. āThe more he lies the more itās accepted by his faithful followers.ā
Trump has suggested investigations involving his conduct are illegitimate under the law and vowed revenge against the prosecutors who oversee them. He has also claimed, with no evidence, that President Joe Biden directed those prosecutions, even the state indictments he has no authority over.
Upon early revelations of his New York indictment, Trump said the prosecutor āILLEGALLY LEAKEDā it. And the probe into his 2016 campaignās ties to Russia? āThey illegally spied on my campaign.ā

Add another cunt to the pile...
TO THOSE WHO THINK MY FATHER WOULDNāT HAVE WANTED #TRUMP TO USE FMJ FOOTAGE
Here are my thoughts: I agree in principle that an anti-war movie is incongruous with promoting the idea of a tough non-woke US military and thus war itself - however - these are very dangerous and strange times and thus using this footage is doubtless pure expedience.
Because Iām sure the irony of using FMJ footage is not lost on Trump or his team - Trump is always seeking to end wars and use peaceful methods. However, thatās primarily what FMJ is about, the shocking and complicated paradoxes of human nature.
And thus, on this tooth and claw planet, you need a very strong military - so Iām going to stick with the idea that FMJ footage was used primarily because of its powerful, realistic portrayal of boot camp, juxtaposed with the entirely demoralizing and inappropriate injection of WOKE ideology into the USA military. Which I agree with myself and which Iām certain my father would have agreed with.
Truthfully, I believe my father (who supported Reagan), would very much approve of saving America, indeed the world, from the highly destructive Globalist forces threatening to take over this planet. And if that footage from FMJ helps Trump make the point that the US military needs properly trained, super tough, focused, dedicated warriors, and not introduce the demoralizing effects of woke-ism, and attracting people to join up simply to have their sexual reassignments paid for, then Trump has my blessing.
Finally, knowing my father very well, I can assure you he had a profound grasp of how paradoxical human nature is! Which accounts for how at the same time he made anti-war films, he had a great passion for guns (self-defense not hunting) and he had quite a few!
My father had a great respect for life - his movies being unimpeachable evidence of his love for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness! So on that basis, I feel very confident he would be a Trump supporter and would forgive using FMJ incongruously, if it helps the cause of freedom!

Dana Carvey, Nora Dunn, Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, Victoria Jackson, Jon Lovitz, and Dennis Miller at Weekend were older, drier, and funnier than the typical SNL cast.
Yet, they had some issues. Victoria Jackson once stood on a chair and called Nora a bitch, and Jan the Devil. Dana was aloof, Dennis was a recluse, Jon Lovitz fought with Lorne over movies, Kevin was Kevin, and Phil Hartman was the glue that held them all together.

There's speculation about legal action from Amanda Abbington who felt bullied after pulling out and creating a DANCE DISASTER and Ranvir Singh and Laura Whitmore also had unhappy experiences on the show with Giovanni. There were also stories about his behaviour towards Faye Tozer and Michelle Visage.
There's a fine line between demanding excellence and just being an abusive twat and Giovanni has apparently crossed the line.
I wonder if Rose Ayling Ellis was different because she was always paired with a chaperone to translate?
Anyway if Giovanni does quit will the gurning ginger guy replace him or will they get a new pro in?

DataLounge, I could BADLY use your assistance. Here's the deal: Iām getting married in a few months at a destination wedding in Costa Rica, and I 'm thrilled to have my four closest friends in the wedding. I'm a straight woman, but as a longtime queer ally, all of said friends are queer men! Sometimes I can feel myself getting too frantic about minute details that only I would care about, but all my "bridesmaids" have been incredibly patient and kind. I thought I just had the greatest friends in the world, but then I got a misdirected email from one bridesmaid to another. The email excerpted one of my mass emails to the other boys and mocked me relentlessly for being a "bridezilla"! I'm "too detail-oriented, too demanding and too self-centered about my wedding." It is obvious these are running jokes among the bridal party, and I am DEEPLY offended!!!
I doubt the writer has realized his mistake. Since then, Iāve been too furious to talk to any of them, and in my moments of greatest anxiety Iāve even considered postponing the wedding or telling them I can no longer afford a bridal party. Do you think I should confront them?

Melania Trumpās eponymously titled memoir is a 180-page exercise in buck-passing and blame-dodging. The former US first lady blames staffers for plagiarizing Michelle Obama; repeatedly stresses her love for her husband despite professing to abhor lying liars who lie; and declares abortion a fundamental right, without pausing to consider Donald Trumpās role in attacking it via the US supreme court.
Melania is by no means an exhaustive read, but it does leave the reader asking why she has chosen to bare her soul just weeks before the election. Or whether Kamala Harris might more accurately channel her policy preferences than her husband, the Republican nominee yet again.
Many subjects are missing. Not surprisingly, Melania has nothing to say about other women in her husbandās life: E Jean Carroll (the woman Donald defamed and sexually assaulted); Stormy Daniels (the adult film star whose hush-money payments led to Donaldās criminal conviction); Karen McDougal (the former Playboy Playmate who also had an affair with Donald). There are less than a handful of passing references to Ivanka, Donaldās oldest daughter who he said he would have dated if she werenāt flesh and blood and who Melania is widely reported to loathe. Trumpās children by other women barely get a look-in. Melania does repeatedly say she loves her own son, Barron, and her parents too.

Michael Moore wants President Joe Biden to leave the White House a āhero.ā According to the renowned filmmaker, the president ought to take advantage of āfull immunityā and pass a ābucket listā of reforms in his last 100 days in office.
āWith a simple stroke or two of your presidential pen, you can make life better for millions of people in ways you never wouldāve dreamed possible,ā Moore wrote on his Substack on Saturday.
Referencing the Supreme Courtās recent ruling on presidential immunity that provided sweeping protections for āofficial actsā made by sitting presidentsāwhich has created judicial over Donald Trumpās efforts to subvert the 2020 electionāMoore argued that Biden can now essentially govern however he wants while he remains in office.
āSome people are now calling you a ālame duckā presidentābut then it occurred to me today: Youāre not done. Youāve still got 100 days left in office! And the Supreme Court has just granted you super powers ā AND immunity!ā the film director continued.
Moore detailed a series of executive actions he said Biden should take before Jan. 20, 2025, claiming that the initiatives āalready have the support of the majority of the American people.ā
Mooreās āBucket List for Scranton Joeā included 13 line items such as officially declaring the Equal Rights Amendment as āthe 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution,ā eliminating student and medical debt, banning spam text messaging, granting clemency for non-violent drug offenders, and pardoning Edward Snowden.
The Hollywood veteran also called on Biden to āfree the hostages in Gaza, free the political prisoners in Israel and stop this slaughter,ā warning that his presidential legacy risked being defined by ongoing violence and conflict in Israel and Palestine.
āYou want to help people, Joe. Thatās your legacy. Thatās the real Joe Biden,ā wrote Moore.

I watched the Werner Herzog- Klaus Kinski film Fitzcarraldo last night. An ambitious entrepreneur is determined to transport a steamship over the Andes mountains to access a rich rubber territory in the Amazon basin.
The production was troubled from the start:
Jason Robards was originally cast in the lead, but withdrew when he contracted dysentery after filming 40% of his scenes. Mick Jagger was also cast and filmed 40% of his scenes with Robards, but withdrew when Robards did. His character was cut from the film.
Several of the local tribesman were injured on set. A few died in the abysmal conditions. More were offended by the production and threated the cast and crew.
Klaus Kinski replaced Robards and was a terror on set. He would regularly get into fights with Herzog and other crew members. He even pissed off the otherwise unflappable Claudia Cardinale, who was as elegant and beautiful as ever in the film.

The Department of Canadian Heritage is being told that more than half of the 550 names on the Memorial to the Victims of Communism should be removed because of potential links to the Nazis or questions about affiliations with fascist groups, according to government records.
But concerns have been raised over the years by Jewish organizations and historians that names of eastern Europeans who collaborated with the Nazis in the Holocaust have been put forward in an attempt to whitewash their past.
"It has come to our attention that a number of entries that have been put forward for recognition may have been affiliated in some capacity to fascist and Nazi organizations," wrote Tristan-E. Landry, a deputy director at the department. "For example, some of proposed individuals were linked to the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists and its military, the Ukrainian Insurgent Armyā¦.and to a lesser extent with Baltic nationalist groups (i.e. members of the Latvian SS)."

She deserves a thread. Has anyone ever seen her in her private time between tours? What a mysterious lady who goes from major star into total anonymity and back and forth, and the press totally complies. People donāt bother her in her private times between albums. She is so unbelievably elegant. Can anyone even think of a single unfortunate outfit she ever wore? Never! Has she ever behaved badly? Never.
I adore her and I want to hear what you think about her and know about her.

It's only within the last 50 or 60 years since cats have been kept only indoors. If not completely feral, cats either lived outside (but sheltered in barns) or they were allowed inside but also let outside the house. It was impossible to predict lifespan because of disease, injuries, accidents, etc. Now that cats can be completely domesticated indoors with healthy food and stimulation, how long are they expected to live?

Meghan McCain stood firm on her refusal to offer an endorsement for the presidential election.
There is less than a month until former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris face off on Nov. 5. Meanwhile, McCainās brother, Jimmy McCain, the youngest son of their father, the late Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain, endorsed Harris last month.
Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) posted a photo of himself with Jimmy McCain and Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) on X. As Harrisās running mate, Walz captioned the photo: āThey are showing America what it means to put country first.ā
āFor all of you tweeting at me ā yes, I am over here the last republican in the family. Albeit, it feels strange, everything is okay.

President Joe Biden will travel on Sunday to Florida areas ravaged by the back-to-back hurricanes, and announce federal funding for projects to strengthen the electrical grid, according to the White House.
Biden will be touring St. Petersburg, one of the hardest hit Florida cities from Hurricane Milton last week, and reveal $612 million for six Department of Energy projects in the southeast.
Two of the projects are focused in Florida and provide a combined $94M in federal funds, according to the White House.
Gainesville Regional Utilities will use the funding to help mitigate the effects of increasingly extreme weather in north central Florida, "through storm hardening, as well as faster restoration through deployment of self-healing devices and tools that will enable more efficient and precise dispatching of field teams during outages," the White House said in a statement.
Switched Source, a private utility technology developer, will work with Florida Power and Light to deploy Phase-EQ, which "optimizes power flow in distribution circuits, will unlock over 200 MW of system capacity, and improve reliability on circuits serving communities that are most susceptible to prolonged outages," according to the White House.
"These investments are part of the presidentās commitment to making long-term investments that protect, enhance, and upgrade our nationās electric grid, especially in the face of extreme weather events," the White House said in a statement.
Hurricane Milton made landfall in Florida as a Category 3 storm on Wednesday evening. At least 16 people were killed in the storm and over a million remain without power.
Biden has spoken to numerous state and local officials, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who he said was "very cooperative." When asked if he would meet with DeSantis on Sunday, Biden said yes so long as the governor was available.

It's not your imagination: The ground beneath Southern California has been particularly unsteady as of late, with the region experiencing more moderate-sized earthquakes this year than it has in decades.
What precisely is fueling the sequence of shakers is not entirely clear, and officials warn that prior seismic activity does not necessarily mean more powerful temblors are imminent. But the series of modest shakers have many wondering what is going on.
"Earthquakes pop off around the state, and it's a little bit like popcorn that they hit ā sometimes they bunch up for reasons that we don't understand," said Susan Hough, seismologist for the U.S. Geological Survey.
By the count of seismologist Lucy Jones, a Caltech research associate, Southern California has felt 15 independent seismic sequences this year, with at least one magnitude 4 or higher earthquake. That's the highest annual total in the last 65 years, surpassing the 13 seen in 1988.
The most recent ā a magnitude 4 ā struck before dawn Sunday near Ontario International Airport. Just in Ontario, one of the most populous cities in San Bernardino County, there have been five earthquakes of magnitude 3 or higher over the past month.
The Malibu area has been another hot spot. There was a magnitude 4.6 earthquake on Feb. 9, strong enough to toss items off a counter; and a magnitude 4.7 on Sept. 12 ā startling enough that the city's mayor and his wife dove under their kitchen table.
Eastside L.A. was rattled by a magnitude 4.4 earthquake centered in El Sereno on Aug. 12 and a magnitude 3.4 on June 2.
A magnitude 5.2 earthquake, the strongest to strike the region in three years, shook Southern California on Aug. 6, with an epicenter northwest of the Grapevine. Another widely felt quake, magnitude 4.9, struck on July 29 about 13 miles northeast of Barstow.
The series of seismic disturbances has shaken the nerves of some Southern Californians ā serving as an unpleasant reminder of the omnipresent threat of the Big One.
But experts caution that the latest quakes don't provide any additional clarity on the potential timing of such a cataclysm.
"Seismologists have spent decades trying to read the tea leaves to look for patterns. The seismic network was installed in Southern California 100 years ago because scientists thought that small earthquakes would show patterns before the big earthquakes happened. And that just didn't work out," Hough said.
One thing has been clear: "Nobody has found patterns that are statistically meaningful before big earthquakes happen," she said.

In footage shared by the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office, a deputy is heard speaking to the unidentified woman who says the large numbers of raccoons began gathering in her wooded backyard about six weeks ago.
The woman, who lives a few miles north of Suquamish, told deputies she has been feeding raccoons on her property for more than 38 years, sheriff's office spokesman Kevin McCarty told the Kitsap Sun, part of the USA TODAY Network.

Blake Lively couldnāt catch her breath this summer when her rumored feud with It Ends With Us director and co-star Justin Baldoni took on a life of its own. She was accused of taking over the project, along with her husband Ryan Reynolds, and it led to the cast taking sides in the very public debate.
Now that Lively will be promoting A Simple Favor 2 with Anna Kendrick in 2025, sheās reportedly ready to show a softer side to her personality. āBlake has now had the biggest direct hit of her career with It Ends With Us but sheās not going to let herself be permanently painted as the villain every project she does going forward,ā an insider told Life & Style. āIn fact, she is pushing back against that strongly and making sure her real allies know just how much they are valued.ā
If you didnāt already know, Livelyās āmean-girlā reputation has been whispered about before. She and Kendrick reportedly didnāt get along on the set of the first film of the franchise in 2018. The TikTok account Celebrity Memoir Bookclub spoke with a studio insider who worked on the film and spilled some serious tea.
āThey HATED each other,ā comedian Claire Parker said in the video, via the Daily Mail. āThe studio even had to have a talk with them about making it look like they liked each other on press tours because it was starting to get obvious. Anna in particular was really competitive with Blake and was constantly asking to make sure she got more promotion than Blake and even made us PHOTOSHOP HER CLEAVAGE in the Simple Favor poster to be as big (or bigger) than Blakeās.ā
The Life & Style source noted that Lively and Kendrick āmanaged to put aside their personality differencesā when they filmed earlier this year. Kendrick described the reunion as ālovelyā to People on Oct. 11, but she was rather vague about their friendship. āShe lives on the East Coast, I live on the West Coast, so we donāt get to see each other often,ā Kendrick explained. āBut it was lovely, and I think that those characters have such weird chemistry that itās so fun to just get the gang back together. And it does feel a little bit like riding a bike.ā
Letās see how Kendrick and Lively handle their press tour ahead of the filmās release. Will it be frosty or friendly?

Watched Will & Harper, a road trip documentary on Netflix about Will Ferrell and his former SNL writing partner who announced his transition via email a few years ago. It is so affirming, insightful, and full of affirming human kindness and the power of friendship. Lots of SNL icons being supportive, with a rollercoaster ride of funny and scary moments, shockingly positive affirmations from unlikely Red Staters , and the usual cruelty you'd expect from MAGAts as the pair road trip from New York to LA.
Will Ferrell really shines in this as a great friend and kind human, and Harper Lewis really emerges as a great ambassador for live and let live late in life transitioners.
Highly recommended.

50% of riders of the bus system in NYC have long ago stopped paying the fares. And the MTA has turned a blind eye to enforcement, well maybe until now. Back during the pandemic they were encouraging people to board the busses by the rear doors (where there is no pay point), and now more and more people have decided they're not willing to go back to paying. The city is losing hundreds of millions of dollars a year in fares.
The first thing that needs to happen is the official(s) who decided to just let this ride for so long need to be fired.

Justin Bieber is on the verge of a total collapse as he faces the shattering possibility that sordid details about his relationship with Sean "Diddy" Combs will soon be exposed for all the world to see, sources exclusively tell In Touch.
Insiders close to the 30-year-old "Stay" singer say he's "shut himself off from the world" as he wrestles with his disturbing past, when he was a fresh-faced 15-year-old trying to impress a music industry mogul whose alleged degenerate ways are only now coming to light.
"No one knows what's going on with Justin," says a member of his inner circle. "It's like he's fallen off the map since Diddy's arrest and all the sick details coming out. People are genuinely worried about him."
Sources say Justin ā who recently became a dad for the first time with model wife Hailey Bieber ā partied hard during Diddy's now-infamous "Freak Off" orgies.
"Dealing with that and being a new dad probably has him stressed as hell," says the insider.
Justin was just 13 in 2008 when he was signed to manager Scooter Braun and Usher's music label. Through Usher, he met Diddy, now 54, and became the rap impresarioās protĆ©gĆ©.
As a recently unearthed video reveals, the two buddies spent a wild weekend together in 2009. In the video, the rapper alarmingly says, "Where we're hanging out and what we're doing, we can't really disclose, but it's definitely a 15-year-old's dream. I have been given custody of him. I don't have legal guardianship of him, but for the next 48 hours, he's with me, and we're gonna go full crazy."
It's long been rumored Diddy plied Justin with drugs and booze and brought him to clubs when he was underage. Justin himself has confessed he struggled with drug use as a young adult while he dealt with pain that nearly drove him to do the unthinkable.
"I think there were times when I was really, really suicidal, like man is this pain ever going to go away," he once shared.
Sources say Justin, who has seen his star cool considerably in recent years, is terrified details of those troubled times will be laid bare as Diddy faces sex trafficking and assault charges in what promises to be a sensational criminal trial.
Recent images of a gaunt Justin have raised new fears about his state of mind.
"I can only imagine the horrors he carries around with him," confides the insider. "And now he has to deal with all this stuff being dredged up, threatening his marriage and career. No one would be surprised if he has a complete breakdown!"

From the beginning he appeared in classic films such as Anatomy of a Murder, The Hustler, and Dr. Strangelove, but he catapulted to international stardom when he starred as the titular character in Franklin J. Schaffner's Patton, where he won the Oscar but told the Academy to " kindly lose my number." After Patton, he continued to appear in both critical and cult classics; The Hospital, Hardcore, The Changeling, Firestarter, A Christmas Carol, The Ryan White Story,12 Angry Men, and The Exorcist III.
When not working, he campaigned and advised his close friend and neighbor, Lowell Weicker.

Most old horror films and slasher filmed relied heavily on building a horrific and uncomfortable atmosphere while modern films rely on jump scares and gore (see: Terrifier).

Melania Trumpās memoir, appropriately titled Melania, drops today and in it she takes aim at a familiar target: Rosie OāDonnell.
The ex-FLOTUS writes about how, in 2016, a clip of then-10-year-old Barron Trump purportedly displaying āsignsā of autism began circulating online, prompting many to question whether he was on the autism spectrum.
Among the people speculating was Rosie, who tweeted: āBarron Trump Autistic? If so ā what an amazing opportunity to bring attention to the AUTISM epidemic.ā

Would HRC and GLAAD and other gay and lesbian organizations have remained gay and fought to further gay rights? Could gay rights have gone beyond marriage equality? There are so many possibilities? Maybe the federal government could have passed a law to help gays seeking asylum from places like Uganda. Maybe there could have been specific healthcare initiatives that could have been enacted to help gays and lesbians. Who knows.

I met him five years ago. I thought he was hot, but he had a girlfriend, so he seemed straight. Between being straight and also being 12 years younger than me, I didnāt think Iād have a shot with him, but I always thought he was cute.
Anyway, I would look for signs of gayness. The most I could see was that he was into bodybuilding, but not much signs after that. Still, I thought he seemed like the kind of guy who would be down for a boy-girl-boy threesome. I suspected he was an auto-androphilr, if nothing else.
Anyway, 2022, he got engaged with his girlfriend, and he ended up marrying her last year.
They finally separated earlier this year. I thought, āHmmm, will he still be straight? Is he available?ā
Anyway, a few months ago, my former roommate asked me if the brother could stay with me in my house temporarily (brother had been living with my former roommate and his girlfriend). I said of course because I figured it was an opportunity to see if I could hook up with him.
But my roommate told me that his brother had been seeing this 45 year-old woman. (Iām 43, the brother is 31). I thought, āWell, at least Iām younger than his current girlfriend.ā The brother apparently liked this new girlfriend because she was skinnier than his wife had been (the wife had gotten fat and was not physically a match for him, a bodybuilder).
The brother showed up at my house two weeks ago. We were chatting, and he originated to me that he wasnāt entirely straight and his sexuality had been an issue in his marriage.
Anyway, last night, we were chatting again, and he invited me to go with him to a gay bar. So I went with him, we had drinks, kept chatting, are legs touching, but I wasnāt sure if he wanted to hook up or not.
Then we went home, into the living room, sat down on the couch, continued talking, and then finally, I leaned forward to kiss him and he was all over me!
We eventually got naked and made out in bed. I went down on him for a bit, but neither of us came.
He says heās never had anal sex before (neither have I).
Today, apparently heās out seeing his 45 year-old girlfriend.
My former roommate has no idea weāve hooked up!

Former President Barack Obama on Thursday admonished Black men who he believes have not adequately supported Vice President Kamala Harrisā presidential campaign, telling them itās ānot acceptableā to sit out this election and suggesting they might be reluctant to vote for Harris because sheās a woman.
The striking comments by Obama, made to a small group of voters in a surprise stop at a local Harris campaign office in Pittsburgh, were part of a more forceful campaign message delivered by the former president on Thursday as polls continue to show a neck-and-neck race. At a rally in the city later that evening, Obama issued some of his most searing public criticisms of his successor to date.
The lack of energy some see around Harrisā campaign, Obama told the group, āseems to be more pronounced with the brothers.ā
āYouāre thinking about sitting out or supporting somebody (in former president Donald Trump) who has a history of denigrating you, because you think thatās a sign of strength, because thatās what being a man is? Putting women down?ā Obama said. āThatās not acceptable.ā
The problem, he suggested, was less complicated than some are making it out to be ā and that it often comes down to sexism.
āYouāre coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses, Iāve got a problem with that,ā Obama said. āBecause part of it makes me think ā and Iām speaking to men directly ā part of it makes me think that, well, you just arenāt feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and youāre coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.ā
As CNN reported, Harris had been focused on turning out Black men even before she took over as the Democratic nominee, trying to get the enthusiasm there for President Joe Biden.
āThe concern is that the couch is going to win,ā one person close to the Harris team told CNN. āWe need to make sure that Black men, Hispanic men, donāt sit on the couch. Because if they donāt vote at all. Thatās (a) vote for him.ā
In response to the Harris campaignās struggle to recreate, in short order, the multiracial Biden coalition of 2020, campaign operatives and allies have been offering a similar directive to the Obama delivered in Pittsburgh, often privately working to make the case to voters in close-up, intimate spaces.
Last month in Milwaukee, Harrisā brother-in-law, Anthony West, quietly attended a local meeting of the NAACP ā a technically nonpartisan group whose members are filled with influential, mostly Democratic state activists and organizers.

When I registered to vote in high school at age 17 I registered as an independent. My thinking at the time as an idealist 17 year old was that I wanted to consider the issues and vote for who I truly thought was the best candidate regardless of political party. And then I ended up voting democrat in every election anyway. The first election I was old enough to vote in was 2000 and I hated Bush. I voted for Obama both times and then Hillary and Biden. I thought John McCain was a good man but his running mate was a dope.
Anyway, when I moved across the country I just registered as a democrat because at that point, in the era of Trump, I no longer really saw the point in being independent anymore.

The drama, which streamed in the spring, contained a big twist in its finale.
Apple TV+ wants another helping of Sugar.
The tech behemothās streaming service has picked up a second season of the drama, which stars Colin Farrell as the title character, Detective John Sugar. The first season followed Johnās search for a missing woman ā and revealed a big twist late in the season that helps set the stage for season two.
āIt has been incredibly exciting to see audiences around the world embrace āSugar,ā and we are thrilled to return for a second season,ā executive producers Audrey Chon and Simon Kinberg said in a statement. āWeāre so grateful to our partners at Apple for their support, our showrunner Sam Catlin, the brilliant Colin Farrell, and of course, our viewers. We canāt wait to get John Sugar back on the case.ā
Added Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+, āSince its premiere, audiences have been gripped by the mysteries and twists of Sugar, with an incredible performance by Colin Farrell at the center. Colin, Simon Kinberg, Audrey Chon and the entire team behind this series have brilliantly blended genres to create a compelling, canāt-miss series that keeps viewers guessing, and we cannot wait to see where Detective John Sugar finds himself in season two.ā
The showās first season premiered in April and concluded its eight-episode run on May 17. Season two, Apple says, will bring Sugar back to Los Angeles for another missing-person case while he continues to look for answers about his missing sister. Farrell, whoās also an executive producer of Sugar, has two high-profile series going at the moment. He also stars in The Penguin at HBO, which has drawn big audiences for its first two episodes.
Season one of Sugar also stars Kirby, Amy Ryan, James Cromwell, Anna Gunn, Dennis Boutsikaris, Nate Corddry, Sydney Chandler, and Alex Hernandez. Itās not clear whether any of them will return for season two.
Catlin (Breaking Bad, Preacher) will be the showrunner for season two and executive produce via his Short Drive Entertainment. Chon and Kinberg, who has an overall deal at Apple TV+, exec produce for Genre Films along with Farrell, Scott Greenberg and Chip Vucelich. Mark Protosevich created the series.

The SS United States, a 1,000-foot vessel that still holds the transatlantic speed record it broke in 1952, must leave its South Philadelphia berth of more than a decade by Sept. 12, said a federal judge Friday.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody put an end to a years-old rent dispute that culminated in a two-day January bench trial between the SS United States Conservancy, a steward of the ship, and its Pier 82 landlord, Penn Warehousing.
Tensions came to a boil in August 2021, when Penn Warehousing doubled its daily dockage fee for what was once known as the āQueen of the Seasā to $1,700, an increase the conservancy refused to accept, continuing to pay its previous rate, set in 2011. Penn Warehousing terminated the lease in March 2022 with a written notice, then took the conservancy to court, with the conservancy filing a counterclaim.
During the trial, attorneys for both sides tried to bend the vagueness of the original berthing agreement in their favor. Brody, whoād encouraged the parties to settle instead of leaving it up to her, ultimately gave each side a partial victory in her decision.
She took note of two key omissions in the original berthing agreement. There were no provisions for any change in the ālay up dockage feeā or provisions on how either party could end the relationship save for the vesselās departure. Penn Warehousingās demand for increased dockage fees with a 14-days notice āfinds no support in the Berthing Agreement or contract law,ā she wrote, and the conservancyās failure to pay the new rate did not amount to a breach of the 2011 agreement or entitle its landlord to damages.
Still, Brody wrote that under Pennsylvania contract law, the berthing agreement is terminable at will with reasonable notice, which Penn Warehousing had issued in March 2022.
Susan Gibbs, conservancy president and granddaughter of the shipās designer, said in a statement that the conservancy āwas vindicated in not being compelled to pay a large sum of back rent.ā Yet she lamented the ticking clock the conservancy is now under.
āThe judgeās decision gives us a very limited window to find a new home for the SS United States and raise the resources necessary to move the ship and keep her safe,ā she wrote.
The decision gives the conservancy about 90 days to find a new home. In addition to finding a location, Gibbs said the conservancy would need funds for insurance, tugs, surveys, and dock preparations for a move.
Penn Warehousing takes no joy in the victory, attorney Craig Mills said in an emailed statement.
āThe best hope of everyone involved was that the Conservancy could successfully repurpose the ship,ā he said. āBut after decades of decay and delay, it is time to acknowledge the unavoidable and return Pier 82 to productive commercial service.ā

When a National Geographic documentary team discovered a boot and sock sticking out of a melting glacier on Mount Everest in September, they almost immediately recognized its significance as a clue to a century-old mystery.
A name label still stitched onto the woollen sock read āA.C. Irvine,ā revealing that it probably belonged to British climber Andrew āSandyā Irvine. Irvineās disappearance on Everest in 1924, alongside his compatriot George Mallory, is one of mountaineeringās biggest mysteries ā with a solution that has the potential to change history.
The pair disappeared on June 8, 1924, 800 feet below Everestās summit, as they set off to complete the first documented ascent of the worldās tallest mountain. But whether they made it to the summit, thus becoming the first known people to reach this milestone, before they died is still unknown.
While Malloryās body was discovered in 1999, neither Irvineās body nor the camera that the climbers were carrying, which might reveal whether they reached the summit, have ever been found.
That is, until this latest expedition, when the National Geographic team, which included āFree Soloā co-director Jimmy Chin, discovered a foot inside what they believe is Irvineās boot. While they are waiting for DNA confirmation, comparing samples from the foot with ones taken from members of Irvineās family, it appears to be the first evidence of his death since his disappearance.
āItās the first real evidence of where Sandy ended up,ā Chin said, according to National Geographic. āA lot of theories have been put out there.
āWhen someone disappears and thereās no evidence of what happened to them, it can be really challenging for families. And just having some definitive information of where Sandy mightāve ended up is certainly (helpful), and also a big clue for the climbing community as to what happened.ā
A few days before they found the boot, the team discovered an oxygen cylinder from a 1933 expedition that had also attempted to scale Mount Everest. Though that expedition failed, it had found an ice ax belonging to Irvine on the mountainās northeast ridge, leading Chinās team to speculate that they might be close to his body.
Following that hypothesis, they spent the next few days scouring the glacier, until filmmaker and climber Erich Roepke spotted the boot.
āI think it literally melted out a week before we found it,ā said Chin.
Chin and the team took the boot and foot off the mountain in a cooler when they noticed birds disturbing it and gave it to the China-Tibet Mountaineering Association (CTMA).
Shortly after their discovery, the team informed Irvineās family, including his great-niece Julie Summers, who has written a book about the climber.
Summers was āmoved to tearsā when she learnt of the bootās existence in an āextraordinary and poignant moment,ā she said, according to the PA Media news agency.
āI have lived with this story since I was a seven-year-old when my father told us about the mystery of Uncle Sandy on Everest,ā she added.
āThe story became more real when climbers found the body of George Mallory in 1999, and I wondered if Sandyās body would be discovered next. A quarter-of-a-century after that discovery, it seemed extremely unlikely that anything new would be found.ā

Hereās the biggest myth that Republican candidate Donald Trump is trying to sell to Americans and to the world: that he was a good president.
Trumpās continuously repeated falsehoods about his record as president have convinced many people who find him to be a horrible person, but nevertheless support him because of what Trump says about his term in office.
āYes, I know, heās 78, heās not as sharp as he used to be, he lies all the time, he has cheated on his wives, he makes racist comments, he is a convicted felon, and he tried to carry out a coup after he lost the last elections. But he was a good president,ā a Republican friend told me recently.
Let me share with you some facts to help fight political amnesia. In fact, Trump was one of the worst presidents in recent history. Here are the facts:
A larger deficit
On the economy, Trump left the biggest deficit in U.S. history.
Under Trump, the national debt grew much faster than during his successor Joe Biden. Like most populists, Trump cut taxes and spent as if there were no tomorrow, leaving a national debt that will have to be paid by our children and grandchildren for decades.
The national debt rose by almost $7.8 trillion to $28 trillion during Trumpās four years in office, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The debt has kept growing since, but at a significantly slower pace.
As for the countryās economic growth, the U.S. economy under Trump grew by an overall 6.8%. By comparison, it grew by 8.4% in the Biden years.
On the jobsā front, Trump left office with 3 million fewer jobs than there were when he entered the White House. Granted, that was largely because of the pandemic, but Biden has added nearly 16 million jobs since then.
Granted, inflation was lower under Trump than under Biden. The pandemic disrupted supply chains from China and made consumer prices soar in America in 2021 and 2022. But inflation has since fallen to 2.4%, close to its pre-pandemic levels.
A weakened democracy
On democracy, Trump undermined democratic institutions and the rule of law like no other American president in recent memory. He is the first U.S. president I can remember who tried to stage a coup dāetat to stay in power.
Trump falsely claims to this day that he won the 2020 election, even after more than 60 courts and the conservative-majority Supreme Court found his objections to be unsubstantiated.
Then, he tacitly tried to incite rebellion on Jan. 6, 2021, when he waited for hours before trying to stop a pro-Trump mob from invading the U.S. Capitol in hopes of overturning the election result. He continues to praise the violent rioters who injured more than 100 police officers, calling them āpatriotsā and government āhostages.ā
Emboldening dictators
On foreign policy, Trump weakened Americaās standing in the world by picking fights with the closest U.S. allies while at the same time embracing dictators such as Russiaās Vladimir Putin and North Koreaās Kim Jong Un.
Trump withdrew from the Paris Climate Accord and threatened to abandon the U.S.-European NATO military alliance. Trumpās threats to leave NATO significantly damaged the groupās unity and probably encouraged Putin to plan his 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
Trump deserves credit for the Abraham Accords to help establish diplomatic ties between Israel and some Arab countries. But if you look at the world in terms of superpower-led blocs, Trump left power in 2020 with a weaker Western alliance and a stronger China and Russia.
Reproductive rights
On abortion, Trump appointed three conservative Supreme Court judges who played a crucial role in overturning Roe v. Wade, a ruling that had made abortions legal in the country for nearly 50 years. As a result, some states banned abortions, and some women reportedly died because they could not get proper medical care to end their pregnancies.

Donald Trump, who appeared weak-voiced and exhausted, meandered for several minutes while speaking at the Detroit Economic Club, at one point even insulting the city itself while implying that the alleged bad things about it will go national should he lose the election.
āThe whole country will be like ā you want to know the truth? Itāll be like Detroit. Our whole country will end up being like Detroit if sheās your president,ā Trump said, referring to Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan tweeted in response to Trumpās speech, āDetroit just hosted the largest NFL Draft in history, the Tigers are back in the playoffs, the Lions are headed to the Super Bowl, crime is down and our population is growing. Lots of cities should be like Detroit. And we did it all without Trumpās help.ā
Though the city has an embattled history, city and state leaders have touted the revitalization of downtown, and the cityās population rose for the first time in more than 60 years this year.
Elsewhere in his speech, Trump seemed focused on companies āleaving wherever they may be locatedā before he referenced āthings were coming cylinders, no wings, no nothing, and theyāre coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle boomā that āreminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have.ā
In a clip shared on X, formerly Twitter, Trump said in full, āMany countries, they do that, and then all of a sudden you hear that theyāre leaving Milwaukee, or theyāre leaving wherever they may be located. Itās very sad to see itā¦ and itās so simple. I mean, you know, this isnāt like Elon with his rocket ships that land within 12 inches on the moon where they wanted to land, or he gets the engines back.ā
āThat was the first I realized. I said, āWho the hell did that?ā I saw engines about three, four years ago. These things were coming ā cylinders, no wings, no nothing, and theyāre coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle, boom.ā
āReminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? Heād have eight circles, and he couldnāt fill them up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I donāt know. I donāt know. Couldnāt fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles. They were so beautiful. It was so beautiful to look at. In fact, the person that did that was the best thing aboutā¦ that level of that circle was great, but they couldnāt get people.ā
āSo they used to have the press stand in those circles because they couldnāt get the people. Then I heard we lost. Oh, we lost. Now weāre never going to let that happen again, but weāve been abused by other countries. Weāve been abused by our own politicians, really more than other countries.ā
Trumpās recent speeches have often been lengthy and rambling, with the presidential candidate frequently wandering off on irrelevant tangents that are difficult to understand. It is immediately not clear what āthe Biden circlesā are ā Some people have speculated he was referring to the social distancing circles used at certain political events in 2020 ā or why they couldnāt be filled up, or how they relate to āElon with his rocket ships.ā
The Detroit Economic Club is a non-partisan non-profit that provides an environment to debate social, business, and government issues.

Saoirse Ronan recently appeared on the āHappy Sad Confusedā podcast and remembered the dramatic casting switch that occurred during the making of Peter Jacksonās āThe Lovely Bones.ā The director originally cast Ryan Gosling as the father of Ronanās protagonist, but the actor was replaced by Mark Wahlberg just days before filming after Jackson disagreed with Goslingās decision to gain 60 pounds for the role.
Jackson never started filming āThe Lovely Bonesā with Gosling, but Ronan revealed the cast had already ādone some prepā by the time Gosling got fired. Ronan had bonded with Gosling and was sad to see him ago.
āI think I just loved Ryan and his dog, George, and I was just sad that, you know, he wasnāt gonna be around,ā Ronan said. āBut I think the reasons why they parted were totally valid, and Iāve spoken to both [Gosling and Jackson] now and it happens. Do you know what I mean? Itās not personal, necessarily. Itās like sometimes youāre just not on the same page.ā
āMark was able to step in, and he was a father,ā Ronan added. āHe was a father to, like, I donāt know, three kids? He probably had an experience of that that Ryan felt he didnāt. Ryan was like 27. He was young.ā
Ronan would get the chance to work with Gosling a few years later when he cast her to lead his directorial debut āLost River.ā
Gosling spoke to THR a year after āThe Lovely Bonesā opened in theaters and revealed his firing was due to his weight gain. The actor explained: āWe had a different idea of how the character should look. I really believed he should be 210 pounds. We didnāt talk very much during the preproduction process, which was the problem.ā
āIt was a huge movie, and thereās so many things to deal with, and he couldnāt deal with the actors individually,ā Gosling added. āI just showed up on set, and I had gotten it wrong. Then I was fat and unemployed.ā

"I think it really sheds a terrible light on the brand," the actress said, claiming organizers misled attendees into believing she was participating when she was not.
Melissa Gilbert has strong feelings about some controversial Little House on the Prairie reunion events that took place this year.
The cast of the beloved period drama recently announced that they would no longer support or appear at fan events produced by Jack Bishop and Gravel Road Markets, and now Gilbert, who played writer Laura Ingalls Wilder on the series, is tearing into the allegedly mismanaged events.
"From what I understand, it became a waking nightmare," Gilbert said of an event in Pennsylvania in a new interview with PEOPLE. "They ran [out of] food. He oversold tickets. He didn't pay the vendors."
Gilbert said that the events were "a shocking affront to the fans of Little House on the Prairie," adding, "If I were the owner of the IP, I would be infuriated because I think it really sheds a terrible light on the brand."
A representative for Gravel Road Markets did not immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly's request for comment.
The actress and more than a dozen of her Little House costars announced on Sept. 6 that they had cut ties with Bishop's company, citing "disappointing events in Connecticut and Pennsylvania." The cast said they asked Bishop to remove their names and likeness from any promotional assets for future events, which were scheduled to take place in Tennessee, South Dakota, Missouri, and Texas. "This decision was not made lightly but with compassion, concern, and great respect for the well-being of our multigenerational fans," they wrote in their statement.
Then, on Oct. 1, the cast released another joint statement accusing Bishop of failing to comply with their wishes and "refusing to announce the cancellation" of future Little House events, claiming that Bishop is listing the castless events as "sold out" rather than canceled.
"Mr. Bishop appears to be taking advantage of Little House fans by failing to inform them and his ticket vendor, Eventbrite, that the Little House cast has permanently ended our relationship with him," they wrote. "This misrepresentation of event status has likely confused ticket buyers and complicated the process of requesting refunds."
Gilbert told PEOPLE that she had concerns about the events' promotion in early 2024. "Immediately, I knew there was an issue, because [Bishop] was promoting that I was going to be at all of these different places, and I wasn't," the actress said. "Fans were buying tickets to see me, and I knew that I wasn't going to be there."
The actress said she had to take matters into her own hands to clarify her absence from the reunions. "I started posting on social media, saying, 'Guys, I'm not going to be there,'" Gilbert explained. "Apparently people contacted him, and he told them not only was I going to be there, but I was co-producing this with him. So this is the beginning of my experience with Jack Bishop, which just meant he's cut off and I will not work with anyone who does this. Period, full stop."
Gilbert also said she has "advocated for an investigation" into Bishop's business practices.

The theater community is searching for a beloved performer.
MJ The Musical star Zelig Williams disappeared on Oct. 3, with his missing persons flyer noting the 28-year-old was last seen at his home in Columbia, S.C., wearing a white T-shirt, black shorts and brown slides.
"According to authorities," reads the poster shared by Black and Missing, "Zelig was last seen driving in the Congaree National Park area, where his vehicle was found."
His family members initially believed he may have been in a car crash due to an alert from his phone.
āAround 9:50 Thursday morning, he left just normally as he would,ā Williamsā aunt Christine McLaughlin Barber told local South Carolina TV station WACH. āAbout 10 minutes later, we received an SOS ping from his phone from one of his friends in New York, indicating a crash.ā
However, they have since ruled out a car accident, according to the outlet.
While authorities search for the actor, his Broadway colleaguesāincluding Hugh Jackman, who worked with Williams on the 2019 concert tour āThe Man. The Music. The Show"āare urging anyone with information to contact the Richland County Sheriff's Office.
āZelig we love you and are praying for your safe return,ā Jackman wrote on his Instagram Story Oct. 10, per Us Weekly. āPlease pass this message on!!!ā
As for his family, they're also asking local residents to report any possible info on his whereabouts.
"Words can't express what our family is going through right now," Barber wrote on Facebook Oct. 10. "Please continue to share his photos and videos. The more we share the more people can get the word out to other states/countries."
She added, "Please continue to pray pray pray for Zelig to come home safe. WE LOVE YOU ZELIG."
In addition to playing Jackson 5 member Marlon Jackson in the Michael Jackson musical, Williams was also cast in Hamilton in 2015 as an ensemble performer.
Earlier this month, he celebrated a more personal milestone by ringing in his 28th birthday.
"28 only feels like a new thing because 27 I gave my full yes to Christ," Williams shared on Instagram Sept. 11. "This yes is a daily yes. Yes, Iāll follow you. Yes, Iāll stop following my old ways. Yes, Iāll praise you. Yes, Iāll change this and that. Yes, Iāll listen. Yes, Iāll let go. I only say yes because of His goodness and love for me. He is unmatched. Thank you, Jesus for being good to me this year and keeping me in all my ways."

I can't find the original thread, but I posted a few months ago about the late night call I got from an hysterical guy who discovered that his new husband 15 years his junior was the product of a one time encounter with his high school girlfriend who gave baby up for adoption. Here's the update: After three hours on the phone listen to this guy carry one, he work up his husband (only married about 6 weeks) and they made love. He told him a few nights later. He told me that the knowledge they are bio father and son has brought a new dimension to their love. They love each other as men, as husbands, but also as father and son. They decided to tell no one. The younger guy and the wife of a cousin are doing the surrogacy thing and a baby is expected in a few months. The older guy is going to do invitor, using an egg from the same in-law and a paid surrogate. No comingling of dad and son DNA. They're happy and can't imagine life without this bio connection. Well, good for them. I don't suppose they're hurting anyone. Both good men.

Robert Adolph Boehm, in accordance with his lifelong dedication to his own personal brand of decorum, muttered his last unintelligible and likely unnecessary curse on October 6, 2024, shortly before tripping backward over "some stupid mother****ing thing" and hitting his head on the floor.
Robert was born in Winters, TX, to the late Walter Boehm and Betty Smith on May 6, 1950, after which God immediately and thankfully broke the mold and attempted to cover up the evidence. Raised Catholic, Robert managed to get his wife Dianne pregnant (three times) fast enough to just barely miss getting drafted into the Vietnam War by fathering Michelle, John, and Charlotte between 1967 and 1972. Much later, with Robert possibly concerned about the brewing conflict in Grenada, Charles was born in 1983.
This lack of military service was probably for the best, as when taking up shooting as a hobby in his later years, he managed to blow not one, but two holes in the dash of his own car on two separate occasions, which unfortunately did not even startle, let alone surprise, his dear wife Dianne, who was much accustomed to such happenings in his presence and may have actually been safer in the jungles of Vietnam the entire time.
While the world was in conflict elsewhere, Robert made due by learning to roof, maintain traffic signs with the City of Amarillo, and eventually becoming a semi-professional truck driverānot to be confused with a professional semi-truck driver.
With peace on the horizon, Robert's attention somewhat counterintuitively drifted to weapons of war, spanning the historical and geographical spectrum from the atlatl of 19,000 BC France, to the sjambok of 1830s Africa, to the Mosin-Nagant M1891 of WWII-era Soviet Union. So many examples of these mainstream hobbyist items litter his small Clarendon, Texas, apartment that one of them may very well have been the item referenced in his aforementioned eloquent final epitaph.
A man of many interests, Robert was not to be entranced by historical weapons alone, but also had a penchant for fashion, frequently seen about town wearing the latest trend in homemade leather moccasins, a wide collection of unconventional hats, and boldly mismatched shirts and pants.
Robert also kept a wide selection of harmonicas on handānot to play personally, but to prompt his beloved dogs to howl continuously at odd hours of the night to entertain his many neighbors, and occasionally to give to his many, many, many grandchildren and great-grandchildren to play loudly during long road trips with their parents.
Earlier this year, in February, God finally showed mercy upon Dianne, getting her the hell out of there for some well-earned peace and quiet. Without Dianne to gleefully entertain, Robert shifted his creative focus to the entertainment of you, the fine townspeople of Clarendon, Texas. Over the last eight months, if you have not met Robert or seen his road show yet, you probably would have soon.
We have all done our best to enjoy/weather Robert's antics up to this point, but he is God's problem now.
Robert's farewell tour will be held Monday, October 14th, at 10 a.m. at Memorial Park Funeral Home, 6969 E Interstate 40 Hwy, Amarillo, TX 79118. The family encourages you to dust off whatever outdated or inappropriate combination of clothing you have available to attend. A tip jar will be available in the front; flowers are also acceptable.
