5 Easy Steps to More Passionate Sex!!! Do you Agree?

 

Need to inject a little more spice and spark into your relationship? Follow these top tips

The most passionate sex occurs between two people who love one another in an insanely deep way. It is difficult to fake that passion because it sweeps over your body naturally when you lock eyes with someone your heart says is worthy of your love. Once you touch lips with that person, the passion ignites instantly, setting your mind free so that you can enjoy the encounter without reservation.
The best way to get that kind of passion back into your sex life, or to experience it for the first time, is to strengthen your relationship with someone who gets your juices flowing naturally. If you don't have time to work through endless relationship exercises, here are five simple things you can do right now to make the sparks fly when you hit the sheets.
1. Take Your Time
Don't rush into a sexual encounter, and don't rush the action once you do initiate an encounter. It is difficult to experience the thrill of passion when you feel rushed to get the job done. Spend more time flirting with your partner, and learn to tease so that they know something is coming well before it actually happens. This builds excitement which can turn into passion, but you want to make your partner work for their reward. You want them salivating at your nipples before you actually take your clothing off.
2. Use All Five Senses
Touch is not the only sense that matters. Pay attention to your body and the surrounding environment to play up all senses for maximum pleasure. Incense or heated oils can work on the sense of smell while dirty talk and erotic moans can add the sense of sound to the encounter. Whipped cream and other treats can bring taste into the bedroom as well.
3. Create New Experiences Together
Have you ever gone on vacation with someone new and experienced a resurgence of passion between the sheets? This happens naturally when two people disengage from the stress of daily life and relax together in a new environment. Make plans to get away from your routine meeting place even if that means one night at a luxury hotel in town before you race right back to work. Just enjoying the new scenery will allow you to connect in new ways.
If you have the time for something more substantial, go away for a weekend. Try to schedule activities that get your adrenaline pumping because those experiences will bring you closer together and arouse your bodies.
4. Make It a Surprise
Indulge in your partner's fantasies and think creatively to add the element of surprise to your encounters. Slip into the shower unexpected while your partner is lathering up before work. Arrange to meet on the back deck once it is too dark for the neighbours to see the action. Wear costumes, paint your body with edible paint, or bring a vibrating friend to the party.
5. Learn about Sex
This is perhaps the best thing you can do right now to get the sparks flying in your love life. Find websites, blogs and books related to sex. Read books that suggest a variety of positions, and then try some of those positions out with your partner tonight. Read sex tips like putting mints in your mouth for oral sex, and then experiment with your partner. The more you know about sex, the more tricks you can play to make sex more exciting with any partner.
Finally, make sure you are enjoying every sexual encounter. If you are bored, assume your partner is as well. What will it take to make sex more enjoyable for you? The answers will lead you toward more passionate sexual encounters in the future.

Russell Brand voted world's 'most important thinker' beating a Nobel Prize winner

Brand has penned his Revolution book, launched his Youtube channel The Trews and appeared on Newsnight and Question Time

Comedian and anti-­capitalist Russell Brand was voted the world’s fourth most important thinker in a poll by magazine Prospect.
After making his name as a comedian, Brand - who lost his Radio 2 slot over prank calls to actor Andrew Sachs - has become a vocal proponent of the anti-capitalist message with his Revolution book, YouTube channel The Trews and appearances on Newsnight and Question Time.
But his inclusion on a list topped by French economist Thomas Piketty and including Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis, Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman and German philosopher Jurgen Habermas is certain to raise some eyebrows.
Unveiling its list of world thinkers in its latest edition, the magazine described Brand as "the spiritual leader of Britain's disaffected anti-capitalist youth", adding: "Dismissed by his opponents as a clownish opportunist, he is nevertheless the most charismatic figure on Britain's populist left."
Piketty, who took top place in the list of "world thinkers" after his Capital In The 21st Century became a surprise best-seller, was described as having an "extraordinary" impact outside the world of professional economists, with his message that capitalist societies have an inbuilt tendency to produce inequality favouring the top 1%.
Also on the list was British philosopher John Gray, the former Professor of European Thought at the London School of Economics, who was described as "the West's pre-eminent oracle of catastrophe".

Culprits of $100million Paris Jewelry heists imprisoned

PARIS, Feb. 28 (UPI) -- Eight men accused of twice robbing a jewelry store in France for millions of dollars in merchandise were handed varying prison sentences Saturday. The ringleader of the group, 50-year-old Douadi Yahiaoui, was sentenced to 15 years while others were given sentences as low as nine months.
The two heists on a Harry Winston jeweler in Paris netted the crew up to $100 million in merchandise. In 2007 the first heist was perpetrated by four men dressed as construction workers. The second came in 2008, with three of four robbers disguised in women's clothing and wigs.
Most of the stolen goods were never recovered, but in 2011 police discovered about $19 million worth of jewels from the 2008 heist stuffed down a drain in a Parisian suburb.
The Harry Winston incidents were only two in a series of jewelry heists in France throughout the years, including when $136 million worth of jewels were stolen from an exhibition in Cannes, France, in July 2013.

4 Ways to Get Free Money From Your Employer

Participate in the Retirement Plan

Most employers have instituted either a type of 401(K), 403(B), or IRA. The idea behind getting more “free” money out of this system is by allotting at least as much money as your employer would match; especially a great plan for those whose employers offer attractive percentages. For example, if you make $50K a year and put $1,500 in your 401(k) annually while your company matches you up to 6% of the annual salary, your employer will only give you $1,500. But, if you were to give $3,000 (or more), your employer will give you a total of $3000.
In fact, it is generally considered a good idea to put as much as possible into your retirement plan because you get to defer taxes on your immediate salary and because the salary you will get as a retiree will be much lower, the taxes taken out at the time will be lesser since your income will be in a lower tax bracket. Plus, there is always the chance that the taxes will be at much lower rates in the future.

Go for the High Deductible Insurance Plan + Health Savings Account

Going for a high deductible plan means that you will be saving a lot of money on paying the premiums; a great option granted you are healthy and do not have major chronic illness(es) as these plans require you to pay huge amounts for your medical bills before insurance coverage kicks in. For the most part, you want to get a plan that comes with a Health Savings Account (HSA); especially a great idea if your employer will match on contributions towards this account – however, they are not obligated to do so. These accounts practically work the same as a savings account and are 100% tax deductible. You want to put in the maximum amount annually allowed in this account; “HSA holders can choose to save up to $3,350 for an individual and $6,650 for a family (HSA holders 55 and older get to save an extra $1,000 which means $4,350 for an individual and $7,650 for a family)” (hsacenter.com). It’s one of the best ways to save money from going towards taxes and securing your future from any drastic medical emergencies that may occur (especially during retirement). Just keep paying small medical bills out of your own pocket!

Look into a Flexible Spending Account (FSA)

FSA account is one of the easiest ways to capitulate on tax free income. They are placed for medical or childcare expenses and all money put into this account is 100% tax deductible. All you have to do is calculate the estimated amount of money you would need for out of pocket health expenses and/or for dependent care; the maximum contribution limit for health care is $2,550 and $5,000 for dependent care. With all this tax free money set aside, all you have to do is make sure you put it to use because any money unused is considered forfeited – unless your employer gives a grace period. The trick here is to get as close to the estimate as possible so you can use the untaxed money righteously.

Look into Company Stocks

If your company is offering you stocks, see if you will get a discount or if your employer will match your contribution; this is one of the biggest/best perks. This is especially a great strategy if your company performs well in the market; being you are the employee, you will have better knowledge of how well, or not well, your company performs. Of course like any investment in stocks, you want to take the most precautions and perhaps might even want to cash out on a high note if possible; investing in your own company doesn’t have to be emotional bond. Diversification is the key when playing in stock market so you may not want to rely solely on your company’s stock for your stock market endeavors. It is usually advised that individual investments be less than 10% of your overall portfolio.
It should be kept in mind that although these ways are a great way to either get more money or more out of your money, you can minimally impact your social security savings because the portion of the money that would go into such service will now not be in lesser amounts overall.

Horny Woman Calls 911 And Asks Officer For Sex

A Florida woman called police and then came onto the responding officer, asking him for sex. Maria Montanez-Colon, 58, was arrested for abusing the 911 system when she called police with a bogus story, and when an officer arrived she tried to have sex with him.
The woman told police that she gave her late husband’s convertible to his son while she was drunk, and that she wants the car back. When officer Justin Davoult of the Punta Gorda Police Department arrived at the house, Montanez-Colon allegedly fondled him.
She then asked the officer if he was married and allegedly proceeded to rub the officer’s chest. The woman then told Davoult that he was sexy and that she wanted to have sex with him because she didn’t have sex in years.
However the officer wanted no part of it and left. Montanez-Colon then called 911 again and asked for another officer.
When the dispatcher asked why she wanted another officer, she explained that the officer turned her down and that made her angry. Officers responded to Montanez-Colon’s home, but this time, they arrested her for misuse of 911.
She was and booked into the Charlotte County Jail. Officers said that Montanez-Colon was intoxicated at the time of the incident.

Sunlight continues to damage skin hours after exposure

Sunlight continues to damage people's skin and increase the risk of cancer for hours after they leave the beach and head indoors, a study shows.

Scientists at Yale University, in the US, discovered it was the supposedly protective pigment melanin that was causing the damage.
The team say the findings may lead to better sunscreens that can prevent the extra damage.
British experts said that the findings "reinforce" current advice.
When UV radiation pummels our skin cells, it can cause mutations in the DNA.
Melanin, the pigment behind a tan or natural skin tone, is the body's defence as it absorbs the radiation.
What scientists did not know previously was what happens to all the energy that the melanin has absorbed.
Super-charged The Yale team showed, in the journal Science, that the high-energy version of melanin supercharges a series of chemical reactions.
A cocktail of superoxides and peroxynitrites culminate in a "very high-energy molecule breaking apart and releasing the energy that was holding it together", said lead researcher Prof Douglas Brash.
He told the BBC News website: "It's what happens in fireflies when they [use the energy to] produce light and glow, except the energy is just transferred to the DNA."
In laboratory tests, the whole damage in skin was still taking place four hours after UV exposure was stopped.
"Half or more of this kind of DNA damage is not happening on the beach, it's on the car on the way home," Prof Brash said.
The team hope they can develop a sunscreen that combines the usual protection with absorbing any energy from the melanin.

Dr Bav Shergill, of the British Association of Dermatologists, said: "This research serves to reinforce current advice on sun protection, which is something I welcome."
He said that sunscreen should be used with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30 and good UVA protection, and that people should stay out of the sun between 1100 and 1500.
He added: "The researchers note that the time it takes between sun exposure and the damage being completely done gives a window of opportunity in which new preventative tools could work.
"This is an interesting concept. Whilst this does open future avenues for treatments, that could be a long way off. So in the meantime the public should focus on traditional sun protection methods."

On your Facebook feed: Your virtual reality experience?

Forget plain, flat photos. In the future, Facebook wants you to share a 360˚ view of your exotic experiences too.

Facebook (FB, Tech30) is working on integrating virtual reality into your newsfeed. The company's head of product, Chris Cox, explained the company's vision Tuesday night at the Code/Media conference in Dana Point, California.

Cox said Facebook has even developed a few demo versions.
In one, users can be virtually inside the cockpit of an F/A-18 Hornet flying over Colorado with the Blue Angels, the U.S. Navy's flight demonstration squadron. In another, a person can be transported to Mongolia and be inside a tent with a woman cooking food and a fire nearby or check out the sweeping vista.
"Not a lot of people are going to get to Mongolia in their life. I've never been," he said. "You can look around. It's beautiful. And you immediately understand it's like one of these things ... the first time you're in it, you realize you're looking at the future."
And people can share their experiences on Facebook. Cox said it adds another dimension to what people are sharing already: photos, videos, text, ideas, thoughts.
Last year, Facebook spent $2 billion to buy startup Oculus VR, which makes a virtual reality headset with visuals and audio.
At the time, Zuckerberg said that Facebook would help accelerate Oculus' plans to make immersive games and environments.
"But this is just the start," Zuckerberg wrote. "After games, we're going to make Oculus a platform for many other experiences. Imagine enjoying a court side seat at a game, studying in a classroom of students and teachers all over the world or consulting with a doctor face-to-face -- just by putting on goggles in your home."
On Tuesday, Cox said he expects average Facebook users to take part in this.
"You'll do it, Beyoncé will do it," he joked.
But don't expect this to come out anytime soon. The Oculus Rift headset isn't even out yet for the general public, and there's no telling how popular (or expensive) it will be.
The wait time? "Probably a while," Cox said. "We're a long way away from everybody having those headsets."

Selena Gomez Poses Topless For V Magazine -- See the Sexy Pics!

Selena Gomez isn't afraid to show a little skin!
The "Heart Wants What It Wants" singer is stripping down in V Magazine's 94th issue, posing in nothing but a pair of high-waisted jean shorts and red hoop earrings.
The 22-year-old beauty took to Instagram to share some sexy snapshots from her cover shoot, writing, "It's here! Stay tuned to @vmagazine for moreeee next month! and thank you @carlynecerfdedudzeele @inezvinoodh and @jamesfrancotv."
In another image from the spread, Selena shows off her killer beach bod in a gingham bikini top, a bandana and a cow-print cowboy hat.
The actress' "Spring Breakers" costar, James Franco, interviewed her in the accompanying article, where she opens up about her rocky relationship with Justin Bieber and the downsides of being in limelight.
"I think the next time will be much different...which will definitely not be any time soon," she tells the mag. "That’s a growing up kind of thing. I was 18 years old, and it was my first love. The older I get, I’m guarding certain things more. After being put through the scrutiny, I understand what it is."
"When you’re young and you’re being told so many different things…it almost felt like all we had was each other, like the world was against us, in a way," she adds. "It was really weird but it was incredible. I would never take it back in a million years. You live and you learn, you know?"
While Gomez says she doesn't regret anything about her romance with the "Beauty and the Beat" singer, she admits all the media scrutiny caused her anxiety.
"There were a few months where I was a little depressed, where I wouldn’t leave [the house] as much," she reveals. "I think I drove myself crazy for a little bit. It was just easier to say, 'Hey, do you mind running to the grocery store and picking some stuff up, I don’t want to get photographed.'"
But, the brunette bombshell says that she's working on feeling more secure with being in the spotlight. "I’m finally getting a little bit more comfortable. It’s a process.”

CIA probes ISIS claim Jordanian airstrikes killed US aid worker

U.S. intelligence officials are investigating a claim by ISIS that its sole known remaining American hostage, an aid worker held for nearly a year and a half, has been killed, and the terrorist group's claim that her death came in a Jordanian airstrike, sources told Fox News.

Kayla Mueller, 26, whose identity had previously not been revealed at the request of the U.S. government and her family as the Pentagon worked to secure her, is believed to be the last American hostage the terrorist army is holding, since the beheading of Peter Kassig, a 26-year-old American aid worker, killed in November. In its statement, ISIS also claimed Mueller was the only person killed in the airstrike, claiming none of its fighters injured or killed.

“We are obviously deeply concerned by these reports," said National Security Council spokeswoman Bernadette Meehan. "We have not at this time seen any evidence that corroborates ISIL’s claim.”

Late Friday night, the Mueller family released a statement saying "we are still hopeful that Kayla is alive." Addressing those who held Kayla, her family said,"We have sent you a private message and ask that you respond to us privately. We know that you have read our previous communications."

Images of children suffering in the early stages of Syria's ongoing civil war prompted Mueller, 26, to leave her home in Prescott, Ariz., in December, 2012,  to work with the Danish Refugee Council and the humanitarian organization Support to Life to help refugees. According to a family spokesperson, Kayla found the work heartbreaking but compelling.

"For as long as I live, I will not let this suffering be normal, something we just accept," Mueller told her hometown newspaper, The Daily Courier, in a 2013 interview during a trip home to her family. "It's important to stop and realize what we have, why we have it and how privileged we are. And from that place, start caring and get a lot done."

She was captured on Aug. 4, 2013, in Aleppo, Syria, while leaving a Spanish hospital staffed by the international humanitarian group Doctors without Borders.

Unlike other Islamic State captives killed by the group after their ransom demands were spurned, Mueller has not been featured on any hostage videos in which the terror army's prisoners, under obvious duress, denounce the West and plead for their lives. In some cases, intelligence officials have determined the hostages were killed long before the Islamic State militants claimed, raising the possibility that Mueller was already dead.

    "For as long as I live, I will not let this suffering be normal, something we just accept."

Just last Sunday, President Obama said the U.S. is doing everything it can to free Mueller.

"Obviously this is something that is heartbreaking for the family and we want to make sure we do anything we can to make sure that any American citizen is rescued from this situation," Obama told NBC in an interview that aired prior to the Super Bowl.

Jordan, which had previously taken part in U.S.-led airstrikes against Islamic State, stepped up its efforts on Wednesday, a day after the Islamic State released a horrifying video of a Jordanian air force pilot being burned to death in a cage. The Arab nation promptly hanged two terror suspects ISIS had sought to free and then, as King Abdullah II vowed to crush the terrorist army that has seized a bloody realm spanning parts of Syria and Iraq, mounted what it called devastating strikes against ISIS targets in Syria Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. It was in one of those strikes that Islamic State claims the woman was killed.

A Jordanian government spokesperson told Fox‎ News it is impossible to verify Mueller's death, but said officials are highly suspicious. The spokesman said he doesn't know what the hostage would have been doing in the location where the airstrike occurred.

Kayla Mueller, left, is pictured here in an undated photo.

Islamic State militants had demanded a $6 million ransom and the release of terrorist prisoners in exchange for Mueller. Among the prisoners Islamic State sought to trade for the woman was Aafia Siddiqui, a neuroscientist trained at MIT who was convicted of attempting to murder U.S. officials and planning to make dirty bombs for use in terror attacks in 2010.

According to Mueller's family, she graduated from Northern Arizona University in 2009, and planned to devote herself to humanitarian causes. From her college graduation through 2011, she lived and worked with humanitarian aid groups in northern India, Israel and Palestine. She returned home to Arizona in 2011, and worked for one year at an HIV/AIDS clinic while volunteering at a women’s shelter at night.

While her identity had not been reported in the media, friends, loved ones and officials in her home state have been comforting her family in recent months.

“While I have no new information today on Kayla’s current situation, I do know from speaking regularly with her family that she is extremely devoted to the people of Syria, and to doing all she can to alleviate the terrible suffering which has left more than 200,000 people dead and driven millions from homes into refugee status," said Den. John McCain, R-Ariz. "I also know that Kayla is extremely well-loved and dearly missed by her family and friends in Arizona."

If Mueller was indeed killed while held by ISIS, she would be the latest in a growing list of captives held until their deaths by the Islamist terror organization.

In August, an ISIS militant believed to be British and dubbed "Jihadi John" by the UK press, beheaded American freelance journalist James Foley in a video released online. That was followed by the similar, gruesome Sept. 2 murder of Steven Sotloff, another U.S. journalist who had written for Time magazine and other publications. Kassig was the last American known to have been killed by the barbaric group.


But Islamic State also beheaded two UK aid workers, David Haines, who was killed in September, and Alan Henning, who went to help refugees from Syria's bloody civil war, in October. Late last month, it released videos showing it had slaughtered two Japanese citizens, Haruna Yukawa, a self-employed security contractor, and Kenji Goto, a journalist.

Jennifer Lawrence strips down to pose with boa constrictor for Vanity Fair

First Rihanna swims with the sharks and now Jennifer Lawrence has a deadly snake wrapped around her naked body? It seems posing with deadly animals is all the rage in 2015.
In a photo shoot with Vanity Fair magazine, the 24-year-old "The Hunger Games" beauty doesn't seem bothered to have a strategically placed Colombian red-tailed boa constrictor draped over her. The publication cleverly refers to the image as "Girl Meets Boa."
VF notes that Lawrence did become "uncomfortable when the snake took a fancy to her neck."
The photo, taken by Patrick Demarchelier, is inspired by Richard Avedon's 1981 Vogue portrait of Nastassja Kinski. "Jennifer has the perfect combination of strength, sexuality and humor, and, above all, tomboy to pull this off," Vanity Fair's fashion and style director Jessica Diehl said of their decision to have Lawrence pose for the daring image.

Caffeine addicts! Eddie Murphy and model girlfriend Paige Butcher hold hands as they take their daily trip to coffee shop

They rarely go a day without paying a visit to a coffee shop. 

And regulars Eddie Murphy and girlfriend Paige Butcher made their usual outing on Tuesday for a fix of their favourite roast.

The comedian, 53, held hands with the stunning Australian, 35, as they shunned their usual Coffee Bean for a visit to their local Starbucks in Los Angeles.

All eyes were on Eddie's gorgeous other half, who sported her casual best.

The lingerie model displayed her flawless face by slicking her honey locks back into a taut pony tail, with not a single fly-away to distract from her blemish-free complexion.

She flashed a sparkling smile while buttoned up in a tartan purple shirt and squeezed into a pair of very tight jeans. Eddie, meanwhile, carried his cup of Joe while sporting a grey shirt, slouchy jeans, and velcro trainers.

After linking hands with Paige, the Coming To America actor flashed a wide and pleased grin.

The twosome strolled perfectly in sync after Eddie momentarily led the way out of the coffee shop

The couple first met on the set of the Big Momma's House 2 in 2006, however only began dating six years following their introductions.

The beauty spoke to Vanity Fair about the caffeinated beverages in 2013: 'I never drink too much coffee, but I get an iced coffee when it’s hot. If not, I get a hazelnut latte.'

Meanwhile, Eddie is gearing up to return to his old stomping grounds.

It was recently announced the star would appear on the 40th anniversary special of the NBC sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live.

The special is set to air on February 15.

Murphy - who is best known for Beverly Hills Cop and The Nutty Professor - started working on SNL when he was only 19-years-old.

The last time Eddie appeared on the popular show was in 1984 when he served as host.
 

Facebook wants you to vote in the General Election - registration reminder to target all UK adults

Facebook is to remind all UK adults on the social network to register to vote in a message that will appear in your newsfeed on Thursday.
The idea is to use peer pressure to encourage a better turnout on May 7.
The message - created with the Electoral Commission - will flag the fact that there are just 100 days until the UK General Election and that if you want to have your say you’ll need to have registered.
It links to the Gov.uk page that makes is super-simple to register online - you'll need to have your National Insurance number to hand, though. You can also register through the Mirror's own tool.
Facebook is a good tool for promoting voter registration as it has more monthly UK visitors (35 million) than people who turned out to vote in the last General Election (29 million).

Once you've registered, Facebook will give you the option to post a "Life Event" to your page telling your friends what you've done and further encouraging awareness.
When Facebook did something similar in the 2010 US elections, more than 300,000 additional people went to the polls after seeing conversations on the social network, according to one study.

TransAsia Turboprop ATR-72 Crashes Into Taiwan River, Killing 23

 

By Shanshan Dong, Julia Zhou and Alastair Jamieson

BEIJING - Rescuers scrambled to pull survivors from the wreckage of a plane that banked to the left, clipped an elevated highway and plunged into a river shortly after takeoff in Taiwan Wednesday.

A young child was among the passengers ferried to safety from the partially submerged TransAsia twin-engine ATR-72, which had just taken off from the capital, Taipei.

Taiwan's Civil Aeronautics Agency said 23 of the 58 passengers and crew on board were confirmed dead and 15 rescued, leaving 20 others unaccounted for. 

Dramatic dashcam video showed the plane quickly losing altitude and turning almost 90 degrees to the left as it crossed the highway, clipping a taxi and the road surface with its wing before crashing into the Keelung River. Teams of rescuers in rubber rafts clustered around the wreckage of the aircraft, according to television pictures from scene. Some survivors swam to safety. 

"The water is not clean, rescuers cannot see clearly underwater," a member of the fire rescue team told reporters at the scene. "The most important thing now is to drag the plane to the bank. They will dive into the water."

"I've never seen anything like this. This is unprecedented," a volunteer rescuer surnamed Chen said, according to Reuters.

Flight GE235 had just taken off from Songshan Airport, according to Ding-zhao Yi, an official with the New Taipei City Fire Department. The state-run Central News Agency said the flight was bound for Kinmen Airport in an outlying county just off the southeastern coast of China, and took off at 11:35 a.m Wednesday local time (10.35 p.m. Tuesday ET).

Zhiming Ling, bureau chief of the aviation agency, said the plane was less than a year old and had completed a round of safety checks on Jan. 26.

The plane's black boxes - the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder - were recovered, the agency said.

An unverified recording posted online appeared to show the pilot telling air traffic controllers that he was declaring an emergency because of an engine failure. "Mayday, mayday, engine flameout," the pilot purportedly tells controllers.

It was the second crash in little more than six months involving the same type of aircraft belonging to TransAsia. Another of the airline's ATR-72s crashed on a Taiwanese island, killing 48 people, in July.

The CEO of TransAsia, Xinde Chen, apologized for accident and thanked authorities for their help.

He said 31 of the passengers were Chinese nationals from mainland China, including three children. The remaining passengers were Taiwanese nationals, including one child, he said.

NBC News' Shamar Walters and Reuters contributed to this report.

US ground troops could be needed in Iraq: Chuck Hagel

WASHINGTON: Outgoing defense secretary Chuck Hagel said in an interview on Friday the United States might eventually need to send non-combat ground troops to Iraq to help turn back Islamic State forces.

Hagel, who announced his resignation under pressure in November, told CNN all options must be considered in Iraq, including sending troops for non-combat roles such as gathering intelligence and locating Islamic State targets.

"I think it may require a forward deployment of some of our troops ...," he said. "I would say we're not there yet. Whether we get there or not, I don't know."

Hagel's comments echoed testimony by General Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to Congress last fall when he said U.S. troops might have to take a larger role on the ground in Iraq.

Such a deployment would be in addition to the 4,500 U.S. troops already committed to training and advising roles in Iraq.

Hagel also said he had conflicts with White House officials on releasing prisoners from the U.S. detention facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

As secretary of defense, Hagel authorized which prisoners would be released and when. He told CNN that the White House did not agree with his cautious approach, saying there were disagreements on "the pace of the releases."

Asked by CNN if he had been pressured, Hagel said, "we've had a lot of conversations" with the White House and Congress on the releases.

Kim Kardashian, Kanye West pose with President Barack Obama

Kim shared the picture on Friday along with a personal message from the US president himself, reports people.com.
"To Kanye & Kim - Thanks for the support and best wishes to your lovely daughter," read the more. The photograph is said to have been captured in October 2014, when the Wests met the president for a sit-down at the White House. "Me and my wife met with President Obama two weeks ago," Kanye had tweeted after the meeting back then.

Ebola nurse Said she almost went insane!!!

More than 8,500 people have died since the Ebola outbreak began last year. While the pandemic has slowed, it has left lasting scars on many countries, especially in West Africa, and those affected by the disease.
Rebecca Johnson worked as a nurse treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone before contracting the virus herself. She teamed up with the World Health Organization (WHO) to hold a Q&A session about her experience on Twitter.

Johnson went into heart-wrenching detail about the toll the disease took on her body and mind. She also offered insight into underreported aspects of Ebola, such as its effects on mental health, recounting how close friends and even some family members turned their backs on her after her diagnosis.

"I was unable to do basic things at a point in time, like, for example, walking, eating and talking, but I had to relearn doing them all through the help of my colleagues at the treatment center before I was discharged. I became blind during this phase of the Ebola disease, but I recovered my sight before discharge," Johnson said. "There was a point in time I almost lost my life."
"Even though there is no certain cure for Ebola, early treatment is your best chance at survival.”

Apple at it again!!! WOW

Apple Sells A Super-Sized 74.5M iPhones In Q1 2015 Thanks To Super-Sized 6 And 6 Plus

  The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have helped Apple sell an astounding 74.5 million iPhones during the first quarter of the company’s fiscal 2015 year. That’s more iPhones than they’ve ever sold during a single quarter, up from the previous record of 51 million iPhone sales reported during the same time last year, and above the consensus estimate of around 67 million per Wall Street analysts. That’s a 41 percent increase year-over-year for iPhone sales. Apple also moved 21.4 million iPads during the quarter, down compared to last year’s 26 million units shipped.

The record-breaking number isn’t just significant in that it earns Apple bragging rights – it’s a very loud, very clear answer to critics that claim Apple is looking at winnowing growth opportunity for its smartphone division. It’s also an indicator that Apple made the right call in addressing display size with its last update, since the larger iPhone 6 and 6 Plus seem to have been responsible for a lot of the iPhone’s overall growth and record-breaking quarter.
Part of the iPhone’s tremendous success has to do with its ability to sell more devices in key growth markets, including Greater China. Analyst firm Canalys reported earlier today that Apple has shipped more smartphones in China than any other smartphone maker for the first time ever, and its surge ahead of both Samsung and recent top dog and Samsung usurper Xiaomi must translate to a huge increase in regional device sales. It’s hard to understate what an accomplishment it is for Apple to have led that market, and how key its strong position there is for future growth potential.
iPhone sales skyrocketing has a couple big potential halo effects, too. Leaving aside that iPhone buyers often also become Mac buyers, Apple is continuing to push the reach of its Apple Pay mobile payments solution, which is designed to incentivize future device purchases in turn. More devices with Apple Pay capabilities leads to greater retailer and merchant interest, which in turn prompts more consumer satisfaction (more places it works) and so on.
Apple also primes the pump for a key product launch with this many new iPhones in the wild: The Apple Watch. Since the Watch requires a companion iOS device to run apps and function fully, more iPhones by necessity means a larger potential market for Apple’s debut wearable. The watch is unique among Apple’s major new product launches in this way, so the bump in iPhone sales comes at a crucial juncture for Cupertino.

Woman Who Tried To Cut Off Husband's Penis Guess what happened?

A Palm Springs woman who tried to cut off her husband’s penis has been sentenced to probation and community service. She will not serve time in jail.

Virginia Valdez, 72, pleaded guilty to one count of assault with a deadly weapon stemming from the 2011 attack on her husband, Cesar Valdez.

The couple had been married for 32 years in 2011 but had begun divorce proceedings.

Cesar claims Virginia called him to their former home and lured him into their bedroom, where she attacked him for no reason, reports ABC 7.

Virginia tried to cut off Cesar’s penis with heavy duty scissors.

Attorney Gloria Allred, who is representing Cesar, made a show of the scissors outside the courthouse.

"This is what was used on his penis," Allred said while holding the pair of scissors. "There was a lot of blood coming out of his penis as a result of her attack on him."

Virginia was sentenced to three years of probation and 420 hours of community service, reports Inquisitr.

Cesar believes a double standard has occurred and if he were a woman, the punishment against his spouse would have been greater for domestic violence.

"I am here in front of you today to emphasize that male spouses can also be victims of domestic violence, but in some cases, men are afraid to talk for fear of ridicule or for fear of being labeled as some sort of freak or a wimp," Cesar said in his first public speech.

“There is no doubt in my mind that had I been the aggressor and not the victim my case would have been heard much sooner," Cesar added.

Allred addressed the double standard.

"He feels that if he had been a woman victim of domestic violence that the case would not have been permitted to be delayed for so long and that the punishment for Virginia would have been harsher," Allred said.

Virginia was charged with inflicting corporal injury on a spouse, a felony, but the charge was dismissed during sentencing.

A plea deal was made in December that stated Virginia would not serve any jail time. Had she been convicted on felony charges, she could have served up to nine years in prison.

The criminal case is over but there is pending civil litigation between Virginia and Cesar — they are both suing each other.

What Syrian Kurds Did in Kobane

Kurdish forces have driven Islamic State (IS) militants from Kobane, officials say, ending a four-month battle for the northern Syrian town.

Fighters from the Popular Protection Units (YPG) were said to have entered outlying areas in the east of the town after the jihadists retreated.

The US said anti-IS forces were in control of 90% of the town.

Kobane was seen as a major test of the US-led coalition's strategy to combat IS in Syria with air strikes.

Tens of thousands of people fled over the nearby border with Turkey after IS launched an offensive in September, capturing about 300 nearby villages before entering the predominantly Kurdish town itself.

The fighting has left at least 1,600 people dead, among them 1,196 jihadists, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says.
'Final clean-up'

Photographs posted on social media on Monday afternoon showed the YPG flag being flown around Kobane, and male and female fighters shaking hands. As night fell, celebratory gunfire echoed across the town.

Analysis: Paul Wood, BBC News

The Kurds in Kobane are jubilant. After 131 days of fighting, they say they have triumphed over the so-called Islamic State.

If this is indeed the victory the Kurds claim, it would not have happened without American bombing.

This setback for IS does not necessarily mean they are losing overall.

Syrian opposition sources say IS actually have more territory under their control now than when the United States and its allies started bombing, last August.

In Iraq, the authorities say Islamic State have been pushed out of the eastern province of Diyala - but the jihadis have made gains to control most of the western province of Anbar.

The battle against IS is ultimately a battle for Sunni Muslim public opinion - and Sunnis have been angered by the civilians casualties in their areas caused by US airstrikes.

YPG spokesman Polat Jan meanwhile declared on Twitter: "Congratulations to humanity, Kurdistan, and the people of Kobane on the liberation of Kobane."

Anwar Muslim, the president of the self-declared Syrian Kurdish canton of Kobane, told the BBC that the town was fully under the control of the YPG and Iraqi Kurdish Peshmerga fighters who were deployed in October.

However, he added that the situation in the eastern outskirts was still "a little tense", with YPG fighters carrying out "the final clean-up" and besieging areas they believed IS leaders might be hiding.

A statement from US Central Command congratulated the Kurdish fighters, AFP reported.

"While the fight against ISIL (IS) is far from over, ISIL's failure in Kobane has denied them one of their strategic objectives," it said.

The advance by Kurdish forces came after several days of heavy aerial bombardment by coalition aircraft.

The Pentagon said it had carried out 17 air strikes in the 24 hours from the morning of 25 January, targeting IS "tactical units" and "fighting positions", as well as vehicle and staging areas.

The retired US general co-ordinating the coalition, John Allen, predicted in November that IS would "impale itself" on Kobane, and analysts said its loss would be a symbolic and strategic blow for the group, which wants to control an uninterrupted stretch of the Syrian-Turkish border.

look at what a Millionaire did to his own family because of his mistress

The Coleman family had been receiving threatening emails and letters for months, leaving them terrified and on edge.

One even said, ‘Your family is done. I will kill them all as they sleep.’

Dad Christopher was head of security for a high-profile US TV evangelist and the messages said he needed to leave his job with the preacher, or his wife and children would be harmed.

The police stepped up their protection of wife Sheri, 31, and sons Garett, 11, and Gavin, 9, but within months, they were all found dead in their beds.

The death threats had become a reality and when the killer was unveiled – it was someone no one could ever have predicted.

Chris, 34, was head of security for the wealthy Joyce Meyer, a job that made him £65k a year and saw him travelling all over the country.

He’d been the son of a minister and had worked his way up the ranks after leaving the marines.

Joyce is reported to be worth a fortune, owning a £7million private jet and a £1million home.

It was a world that Chris was addicted to – he was financially comfortable and it gave him freedom that he took advantage of.

Chris and Sheri Coleman Chris and Sheri were married for 12 years


At his home in Waterloo, Illinois, stunning Sheri was the perfect wife and mother.

Children Gavin and Garett were polite and well-mannered, and Chris would kick a ball with them outside before tucking them into bed with prayers.

But his job enabled him to live a secret life. Since 2008, he’d been having an affair with a cocktail waitress, Tara Lintz, who he’d met because she was a childhood friend of Sheri.

Chris would arrange to meet Tara while he was away and he seemed utterly besotted. He gave her a promise ring, sent endless texts and talked about marriage.

But divorce was unthinkable in Chris’s world. His boss Joyce had made a recorded statement saying that employees would be demoted or fired if they divorced.

Then, out of the blue, Joyce and Chris both received an intimidating email saying Chris had to give up working for Joyce’s company – which has been criticised for the lavish lifestyle of its members.

When more threats came, police stepped up patrols around the Colemans’ home, but by 2009, letters turned up on their doorstep.

"Time is running out for you and your family…"

It looked like someone was trying to get to Joyce – but no one else was receiving these threats but Chris.

Monroe County Circuit Court Christopher Coleman and Tara Lintz
Christopher with his lover Tara


In the meantime, Tara had given Chris an ultimatum. She wanted him to leave Sheri by May 4 so they could get married.

When the deadline arrived, she called Chris. He told her the divorce papers were ready and he’d hand them over to his wife the very next day.

Early on May 5, 2009, Chris had been to the gym when he phoned his neighbour, a police detective who knew about the threats.

The officer even had a camera in his driveway set up to watch their home.

Chris said he couldn’t get hold of his family and they were usually awake by now. So the detective called the station and with other officers, he went round to check.

When no one answered the door, they entered through a window and found red spray paint writing on the walls. "U have paid," one read. Another said, "Punished," followed by "I am watching."

CBS News Coleman home death threats
One of the messages sprayed on their walls



Inside Sheri, Garett and Gavin were dead. They’d been strangled in their beds with a cord that was never found.

Chris arrived and was held back from the scene.

When officers told Chris his family were dead, they noted that his tears seemed forced.

He didn’t ask how they’d been killed and he tried to cover scratches on his arms.

Straight away, he became the prime suspect. Chris was taken in for questioning.

He insisted his family had been alive when he’d left but reports proved that Sheri, Garett and Gavin were all dead by 5.30am – the time Chris said he left the house.

The police quickly found out about Tara, which gave him a motive.

CCTV from the neighbour’s home showed that no one else had entered the house after Chris left and there was no other DNA on the bodies.

Credit statements revealed that Chris had bought spray paint in the same colour and make that was used at his home.

Worse, the threatening emails were traced back to an account Chris had set up six months before his family were killed. Had he been planning the crime all along?

Chris was arrested and charged with murder.

In April 2011, his high profile trial began. He admitted having an affair but pleaded not guilty and wore a bulletproof vest for his own protection.

The public were glued to developments. It was a dream case for the media – the trial had sex, religion, a glamorous mistress and a wealthy preacher.

Christopher Coleman Chris had served as a Marine


Experts testified that Sheri and her boys had died between 3am and 5am, when Chris was at home.

Family members cried as the court was shown images of the two boys dead in their beds. Swear words sprayed on their covers matched Chris’s handwriting.

The prosecution said Chris had been desperate to keep hold of both his highly paid job and his lover.

Explicit photos, messages and a sex tape of Chris and Tara were shown to the jury.

Tara testified that Chris had promised to serve divorce papers the very day his family were found dead.

"He felt his own children die in his own hands," the prosecution argued, "He’s not like us. He doesn’t value life the way we do."

The verdict was handed down two years to the day that Sheri, Garett and Gavin were killed. Chris was found guilty on three counts of first degree murder and sentenced to life with no possibility of parole.

The family were put through further agony when Chris appealed, but in 2014, his conviction was upheld.

His innocent family paid the price for his obsession with his job and lover.
