Kanye West and Bianca Censori were reportedly escorted out of the Grammys after arriving uninvited, but it was security, not the police, who removed them from the event. Their unexpected presence (not to mention Bianca's bare assed, bare breast "look at me" look) raised concerns among event organizers, leading to their removal.

No, It isn't the Trump Tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Here are the reasons for BITCOIN's sudden decline. Bitcoin is currently in a steep dive, having lost almost $8,000 in Value over the last 24 Hours. Bitcoin is experiencing a decline due to a combination of factors, including stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data, which has diminished hopes for Federal Reserve rate cuts, and significant liquidations in the crypto market.

While flowers and chocolates are a good start, no Valentine's Day gift is as unapologetically romantic as fine jewelry. For many couples, gifting something as long-lasting and thoughtful as jewelry is a way of showing their commitment and devotion. But is jewelry the right choice for every relationship? What designs should you choose for your first Valentine's Day—or your fiftieth? VRAI, a fine jewelry brand featuring lab-grown diamonds, breaks down which styles are right f...
The average American woman weighs about 170 pounds and stands about 5 feet, 4 inches tall. But it's important to remember that these averages are mathematical calculations. They don't represent what's typical or healthy for everybody There are so many factors that make all bodies unique—size, shape, proportions—that comparing one body to others is rarely helpful. In fact, it often leads to negative self-talk and other harmful behaviors (thanks, Instagram). That said, it may...
Smartphones are an everyday part of our culture, but research on the effects of screen time might give parents pause when it comes to giving their children one of their own. Even so, smartphones allow parents to reach their children in an emergency, students to access educational materials at the stroke of a finger, and kids to find community, especially when peers of certain identity groups may be hard to find locally. Of course, with each benefit comes a new digital risk. Pa...
Robert MacKenzie is an assistant fire chief—but not the kind who works for your local fire department. As the Palisades Fire bore down on Southern California last week, the private fire crew he oversees headed out to help defend homes for their customers: Insurance companies that offer wildfire protection to wealthy homeowners and others with the coverage built into their policies. Working with lists of high-risk properties provided by insurers, the team from Capstone Fire a...
When Karen Sicner and her husband John made the decision to relocate from metro Atlanta to build a new home on a two-acre homesite in rural Sylva, North Carolina, moving closer to their daughter and her family in Tennessee was a major factor.

"I've been downtown...
In 1955, the Ventu Park wildfire tore through the canyons above Malibu, burning nearly 14,000 acres and eight homes. The same area saw two large fires burn hillsides and homes over the next three years. There were two in the 1970s, one in the '80s and three in the '90s. This century those hills saw the Woolsey fire, one of the most destructive burns in California history. The Franklin fire, which scorched the hills just last month, has now been overshadowed by the firestorm th...
Nearly a decade ago, talk of so-called "progressive prosecutors" came onto the legal scene with all the flair and freshness of Beyonce's "Lemonade" album or tickets to Hamilton. The label is generally applied to district attorneys—elected officials who lead local prosecutor's offices—who challenge the traditional "tough-on-crime" approaches of their predecessors and seek to reduce their jurisdiction's reliance on mass incarceration, The Marshall Project explains. "There see...
Connie Allen sat at a wooden table in her home in North Cove, Washington, a quarter mile up the road from the beach. Cranberry bogs extend on all sides of her property, which sits 10 feet above sea level. She described her nightmare: All the bogs flooded by storming seas. Salt left behind after a powerful coastal storm could kill the cranberry vines, threatening more than 70 farmers and their workers, families, and buyers, The Daily Yonder reports. Cranberries grown along the...

I'm heartbroken to share that my friend Capt. Rebecca Lobach died in Wednesday evening's crash near DC's National Airport. Rebecca was brilliant and fearless, a talented pilot and a PT stud. We trained and commissioned together from @UNCArmyROTC, and we had a lot of fun along the way, too. We were both latecomers to the ROTC program, enrolling partway through the third year, and quickly bonded over being the new kids on the block. Rebecca and I were in a training platoon...
