Israeli to be extradited to Bosnia on genocide charges

Aleksandar Cvetkoiv
For the first time, Israel is to extradite an Israeli citizen wanted for genocide. The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Aleksandar Cvetković is to be extradited to Bosnia, where he was allegedly involved in a massacre in 1995.
The Supreme Court rejected Cvetković's appeal of a similar ruling made by the Jerusalem District Court in August.
Cvetković is suspected of taking part in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre in eastern Bosnia, in which more than 1,000 Muslims were murdered at the Branjevo Farm in July 1995, according to the Bosnian extradition documents.
According to the information received from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cvetković took an active part in the killings and was among the eight soldiers who served as a firing squad.
The extradition request, approved by the Supreme Court, included the testimonies of three men who confessed to have taken part in the massacre and who testified to Cvetković's active role in the atrocities.
A few years after the events, Cvetković married a Jewish woman and in 2006 the two immigrated to Israel with their children. He was granted Israeli citizenship for being married to a Jew and without the authorities having any knowledge of his actions.
Gal Levertov, director of the International Department at the Prosecutor's Office, said that according to testimonies, "For ten hours, he and the rest of his unit murdered hundreds of citizens, group after group that were taken off the bus, as Aleksandar and his peers – as hard evidence indicates – shot at the backs of those people, who were buried in a mass grave."
The Justice Ministry is expected to approve the extradition, after which Cvetković will be tried in the War Crimes Chamber of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. If convicted, Cvetković will face a lengthy prison sentence.
This is the first time that an Israeli is extradited for accusations of genocide. According to Levertov, Cvetković will not be facing capital punishment, which made the extradition possible, as Israel does not extradite defendants who might face execution.

NYPD: Lindsay Lohan arrested on assault charge

The NYPD arrested actress Lindsay Lohan at a nightclub in Manhattan after she punched another female patron early Thursday morning, according to police.
Lohan allegedly struck the woman in the face with her hand at about 4 a.m. at Club Avenue on 10th Ave. after words were exchanged, sources tell Fox 5 News.
Lohan told the woman "give me my space" as she sat in a booth. A short time later fists started to fly, sources said.
The woman had visible bruising on her face. Alcohol did not appear to be a factor.
The victim did not require medical attention.
Lohan is facing a misdemeanor assault charge.
Her publicist did not immediately return a call for comment to the Associated Press.
The actress- wearing a black coat over her head- was escorted out of the precinct at about 7:30 a.m. She was issued a desk appearance ticket.
The incident is the latest in a long string of run-ins with the law for the Long Island native.

On September 21, Lohan, 26, was arrested on a charge of leaving an accident scene after a restaurant worker said her Porsche hit him and hurt his knee as she turned from a Manhattan street into an alley by the Dream Hotel. Police said no alcohol was involved.

Lohan was released with an appearance ticket.

Prosecutors decided not to move forward on the allegations about the incident.
About a week after the episode near the Dream Hotel, Lohan told authorities a man grabbed her in a New York hotel room in an argument over cellphone photos. The man was initially arrested, but the arrest was voided hours later when the charge could not be substantiated, law enforcement officials said.
Last month, police were called to Lohan's childhood home in the New York suburbs after getting a report that she and her mother were fighting. Investigators found nothing criminal happened, Nassau County police said.
The 'Liz and Dick' actress is on informal probation for taking a necklace last year without permission from a jewelry store in Venice, Calif.; she spent 35 days on house arrest in that case.

Shocking video catches Oklahoma police officer using TASER on woman in handcuffs

To contact us Click HERE

MCALESTER — A woman is suing the city of McAlester after a city police officer used his Taser on her while she was handcuffed inside the Pittsburg County jail.
Nakina Williams, who filed the lawsuit in federal court last week, is seeking more than $2 million in punitive damages, court records show. The entire incident was captured on video surveillance cameras at the jail.

The city of McAlester, officer Sterling Taylor-Santino and Police Chief Jim Lyles are named as defendants in the suit, which alleges that Williams' civil rights were violated during the June 24 incident.

Taylor-Santino, 33, also has been charged with assault with a dangerous weapon in connection with the Taser incident. The officer, who remains on the police force, has pleaded not guilty in Pittsburg County District Court.

According to the lawsuit, the officer used excessive force as he dealt with the handcuffed Williams, who is less than 5 feet tall.

The suit also claims that Taylor-Santino, who initially was not aware the incident had been videotaped, lied on a report he filed in connection with the Taser episode.

“In his ‘use of force report,' (Taylor-Santino) sought to cover up and/or conceal his actions … by omitting that (Williams) was handcuffed when she was shot with the Taser,” the suit alleges. “As a result he was found to have acted ‘within policy' by police department officials.”

Williams' lawsuit also draws attention to the officer's “violent work history.”
“During his law enforcement career, (Taylor-Santino) has been involved with and instigated a disproportionate number of violent conflicts with suspects compared to other law enforcement officers in Pittsburg County,” the suit alleges. “Some of these resulted in allegations of excessive force being made by the suspects.”
When reached by phone Tuesday afternoon, Taylor-Santino said he had no comment about the federal lawsuit filed by Williams or the June 24 incident, referring all questions to his attorney.

Taylor-Santino did confirm that he is still a member of the McAlester Police Department, and Lyles said last month the officer would remain on restricted duty pending the resolution of his criminal case.

Phone messages left with McAlester City Manager Pete Stasiak and Lyles were not returned Tuesday.   Jeremy Beaver, a local attorney representing Williams in her civil case, said the criminal charges filed against Taylor-Santino should bode well for his client's case in federal court.

“It just reaffirmed our position that she's a victim of a crime,” Beaver said. “We felt that from the beginning, so when they filed the charges, yes, that just confirmed what we've thought all along.”

Video of incident

The June 24 incident was captured on video and shows Taylor-Santino pressing a Taser against the woman's chest before discharging the weapon.

The video shows the officer stunning Williams at point-blank range, within 40 seconds of her entering the booking area.
Court records allege Williams, 27, was arrested after being drunk in public the night before and that she was being combative with officers before arriving at the Pittsburg County jail.

Williams has a lengthy history of trouble with the law in Pittsburg and Okmulgee counties, including arrests on possession of controlled substances, failure to provide adequate care for her children and public intoxication complaints.
After a brief argument — during which time Williams allegedly spit on the officer — the footage shows Taylor-Santino walking up to the woman and pressing the Taser against her left breast, nearly causing her to fall over.
A bolt of bluish-white light glows for an instant when the officer fires the Taser.
And while Williams never falls to the ground, her lawyer claims the more serious injuries occurred after the Taser was used. He said McAlester police officers violated the department's policy when they removed the Taser's barbs in the jail.
“They sat her down on a bench and yanked them out ... they were embedded in her upper-left breast, if you can imagine,” Beaver said. “They were supposed to take her to the hospital to remove those.”
Taylor-Santino was suspended two weeks without pay for using his Taser on Williams, police said.
Williams recently received a three-year suspended sentence for her actions in June, records show.
Taylor-Santino is due back in court Dec. 14 for a preliminary hearing conference.         Newsok.com

Photo snapped by tourist shows NYPD officer giving winter boots to barefoot homeless man

To contact us Click HERE

A New York police officer's spontaneous act of kindness has captured the praise of hundreds of thousands of people across the internet.
A tourist from Arizona captured a heartwarming photo of Lawrence Deprimo kneeling down to give a barefoot homeless man a pair of winter boots on a cold night earlier this month.
The NYPD posted the photo on its Facebook page, an effort to show the softer side of the nation's largest police force.
Nearly 300,000 people have 'liked' the photo online. Another 65,000 people have shared it.
Officer Deprimo said he was patrolling Times Square in the heart of Manhattan when he came across the man, who was huddled next to a storefront with nothing on his feet, the New York Times reports.

'It was freezing out and you could see the blisters on the man’s feet,' the officer told the Times. 'I had two pairs of socks and I was still cold.'
Officer Deprimo said he talked to the homeless man and found out his shoe size: 12.
He watched the man stand up and walk slowly, painfully, down the cold pavement of the sidewalk on the balls of his feet.
The 25-year-old officer went into a nearby Sketcher's store and found a $100 pair of winter boots that he believed would keep the man warm through the winter.
The clerk, moved to the story, gave the officer his employee discount - 25 percent off.
Officer Deprimo said he keeps the $75 receipt as a reminder that 'sometimes people have it worse.'
Deprimo, who lives on Long Island with his parents, joined the force in 2010.

The photo was taken by Jennifer Foster, a 911 dispatcher from from Pinal County, Arizona, who was in New York for Thanksgiving.
When she got home, she emailed the photo to the NYPD, which posted it to the department's Facebook page.
She said she took the picture because the scene reminded her of her own father, a 32-year veteran of the Phoenix police department. She remembers as a child watching him give food to a homeless man.
'He squatted down, just like this officer,' she told the Times.

KristenStewart Uncomfortable During Balenciaga Q & A — Expert Thu, October 18,2012 6:44pm EST by Sandra Clark 15 Comments View Gallery→5 Photos DuringKristen’s live interview Oct 18 discussing the new Balenciaga fragrance, she appeared self-critical anddisapproving of herself, says top body language expert Patti Wood.HollywoodLife.com has all the EXCLUSIVE details on how Kristen really feelsabout herself. Kristen Stewart is known for being fidgety during interviews,however Body LanguageExpert Patti Wood says Kristen’s recent Q & A with Balenciaga revealssomeone who is very nervous and insecure. World-renowned body language expertPatti Wood, who recently released her new book SNAP – Making the Most of FirstImpressions, Body Language and Charisma, tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively,“Kristen’s behavior during the interview indicates that she didn’t feel likeshe was doing a very good job. She was self-comforting throughout the entire Q& A.” “Several times Kristen put her index finger up to her bottom lipwhere there are tons of sensitive nerve endings. This gesture would stimulateendorphins, thus making her feel more at ease. She also touches her chin,almost rubbing it showing that she feels very uneasy and unsure of herself,”said Patti.“Kristen also feels the need to protect herself which is why shebrushes the outside arm with her inside arm. This shows she wants to protectherself from the camera, the public. At one point, Kristen twists her head andbrings her chin down and then sucks in her lips, again indicating that she isvery uncomfortable, typically a shame gesture. She also touches her ear,another indication that she feesl like she isn’t doing a very good job.” “Therocking and running like motion of her foot is symbolic of running away fromthe interview. And the clicking sound she often makes when she finishes asentence is a combination of disapproval and comforting herself.” “Kristen istrying really hard but feels like she is coming up short. If she had to gradeherself on how well she did during the interview, she would have most likelygiven herself a ‘D’.” “Overall, it makes sense that Kristen would feel uptightand insecure because this is one of the first times she is talking in publicsince the whole cheating scandal on Robert Pattinson. She’s probably feelingjudged and perhaps even thinking about Rob at times during the interview andwondering what her fans are thinking about the whole situation.” “For futureinterviews, I would advise Kristen to feel more comfortable and she can achievethis in different ways. I would suggest she wear clothing that is LESSrevealing. I would suggest that she cover up her upper arms and lower legs a bit more so shedoesn’t feel so exposed. I would have her do some positive self-talk prior anyinterviews. It’s also important for her to connect with the interviewer. Shecan do this by shaking hands or doing a kiss on both cheeks– something to showthey are connected. This will help Kristen’s fans feel like they too areconnected with her.”How do YOU feel, HollywoodLifers? Did Kristen appearunusually nervous and self-critical?

RobertPattinson & Kristen Stewart: Their Love Is Real, Say Experts Thu, October18, 2012 10:09pm EST by Billy Nilles 23 Comments There has been a lot ofspeculation that Rob and Kristen were just pretending to promote the release of‘Breaking Dawn: Part 2,’ however two body language experts tell us that theirloving feelings are real! Read on for all the details. Robert Pattinson andKristen Stewart‘s reconciliation, after her tryst with Rupert Sanders, hashappened just in time for the press tour for Breaking Dawn: Part 2 to begin —causing a lot of cynics to wonder if the reunion is solely a publicity stunt.With the arrival of new photos catching the two kissing at Kristen’s new houseon Wednesday, Oct. 18, two experts in the field of body language assure us thatthis reconciliation is very real! Patti Wood, body language expert and author of SNAP – Making the Mostof First Impressions Body Language and Charisma, spoke with HollywoodLife.comexclusively and analyzed the romantic photos, of Kristen, 22, and Rob, 26,exclusive to PopSugar. Reading Rob“Even though the photos are a little blurryand distorted, he is extraordinarily happy,” she says. “If you look, you cantell by the ways the eyes get smaller — that when you’re truly smiling. And theway his cheeks are lifted up, and even though he has all the stuff in his arms,he has a slight lean forward down to her which is really nice.”AbsolutelyComfortable“[In] the kissing photo, I also really like how far over hisshoulders are hunched towards her and surrounding her,” Patti continues. “He’sreally reaching out and going over to her making an effort to her. Then I likethe mutual hugging, the side hug. It’s really nice. I like two things: that he’sgoing up and over to hold her, that’s partly due to his height, but he’sabsolutely comfortable and relaxed. This is where he feels most comfortable. Heis absolutely comfortable with her. He’s not holding anything against her.Also, how gently he’s cradling her in. Her arm also isn’t only wrapped aroundhim. She looks comforted by him and she is making an effort. If you look at thewalking up the stairs photo. He’s pressed into her.”Genuine Emotion Patticoncluded that nothing in these photos was forced or faked, it’s the real deal.“I think in his smile it’s absolutely genuine,” she says “Even though [his]mouth is closed, he’s really happy to see her. The comfort in the hug, that’s ahard thing to fake. It’s really genuine. The kiss isn’t a super sexy kiss, butit’s tension-free. He’s showing he’s not holding anything against her and he’shappy to see her.”A Changed Woman Dr. Lillian Glass, author of the bookThe Body Language Advantage, agrees with Patti. When she looked at the photos,her initial response was, “WOW! In the first photo he has a tight-lippedprotective smile.”Dr. Glass read a bit into Kristen’s body language, seeing achanged woman. “In the second one, she is more agressive in her kiss and moreresponsive, as she has been so aloof in the past…in the third one, she isagressive as she clings to him and warpas her arms around him.”Do you think Roband Kristen’s love is real, HollywoodLifers?

4 Subtle Signs Your Boss Hates You
by Ashley InsalacoAugust 26, 2012, 03:00 pm EST
Think your boss hates you? Here’sjust one reason you need to know: Being paranoid at work causes your coworkersto dislike you, according to a study in the Organizational Behavior andHuman Decision Processes.
Researchers found that people whothink their coworkers or bosses dislike them seek out information throughspying or eavesdropping. This annoys their colleagues, causing your paranoidself to be rejected. (Layoff-proof your job—and even get a raise!—with these 30 Ways to Save More and Earn More.)
How do you know if you’re doing a goodjob without having an awkward talk with the head honcho? Here are a few ways toknow the big cheese thinks you’re a block of lindberger.
1) He doesn’t move his coffee cupwhen you sit down
Ifyour boss respects you, he won’t want anything between you when sitting acrossthe table. He will unconsciously move his cell phone, coffee cup, or pen to theside so there is no blockade. “If something else is more important than you, orif they don’t want to engage with you, they’ll put up a barrier,” says Patti Wood,MA, Body Language Expert and author of Snap: Making the Most of FirstImpressions, Body Language, and Charisma.
2) He stands facing you
Whena male boss likes you, he will stand at your side to talk with you. Standingside-to-side rather than face-to-face means he trusts you. “That’s where guysfeel the most comfortable, the safest, disclosed the most,” says Wood.
3) She aims her body away from you
Nexttime you step in your boss’s office, pay attention to how she moves. A person’sbody windows are their toes, knees, pelvis, stomach, heart, throat, mouth,eyes, and palms of hands, says Wood. If she trusts you, she’ll be more likelyto aim her body at you, keep her hands on the desk, and let her mouth slightlyopen.

4) He only emails you
If your boss emails,calls, texts, and stops by your cube, that’s a good sign. An employer who likesyou is more likely to communicate through all media platforms. Unlike the guythat he just wants emails from, he’s interested in what you have to say.

Is She Faking It?
by Ashley InsalacoAugust 23, 2012, 04:50 pm EST
He's a real king of comedy.
You tell a joke. She laughs. Thatmeans you’re funny, right? Not so fast: Social norms pressure people to laugh atjokes that aren’t exactly comedy-club-worthy, which results in overconfidencein your humor, according to a study presented at the American PsychologicalAssociation’s convention.
In the study, researchers had oneperson tell jokes while the other listened. When the two people were askedabout the experience, the jokester thought he was hilarious. Meanwhile, the guywho listened thought the cracks fell flat—but laughed anyway. Researchers saypeople want to be polite, which leads to a lot of guys who think they’refunnier than they are.
So how can you be sure that yourjokes actually deserve the laughs they’re getting? Decode your crowd’s facial expressions with thehelp of Patti Wood, M.A., body language expert and author of the book Snap:Making the Most of First Impressions, Body Language, and Charisma.(And for more ways to sniff out people’s body language, read Marc Salem’s Mind Gamesblog.)
The Smile
Afteryou crack a joke, look at her cheeks. If you’ve really made her smile, hercheeks will be higher with wrinkles around her eyes and forehead. Her eyes alsobecome smaller—more almond shaped—with a real smile, says Wood.
Isshe faking it? Nowrinkles around the eyes or forehead equals no dice, Wood says. Also, study herlips—they’ll be tight and more pressed together if she’s not into it. The fakegrin might also last longer, as if it’s painted on.

The Laugh
With an authenticlaugh, her head will go up so her chin is pointed at someone. Listen, too: Areal laugh will fill her chest with air, creating a fuller sound.

Isshe faking it? Detectingthe phony laugh is two-fold. She’ll either freeze in place or move her bodyforward and down, says Wood. She’s also not really taking in any air, but rathercompressing her body and moving it lower to the ground, like she’s ducking fromsomething. (Probably those rotten tomatoes being hurled your way.)
Want a fool-proof way to crack herup for real? Emulate Jon Stewart. According to a 2011 survey from eHarmony,women are most attracted to men who use dry, saracastic humor. But save themorbid stuff: In the same survey, ladies were also least into guys with a darksense of humor.

Interview Body Language MistakesThat Can Cost You The Job
+ Comment now

 
You’ve sent inyour perfectly manicured résumé and flawless cover letter. You’ve researchedthe company and gave brilliant responses to tough interview questions. You’reprobably a strong candidate—but forget to smile, slouch in your chair or failto make eye contact during the interview, and you could be out of the running.
A candidate can give outthousands of non-verbal cues within the first minute of meeting a hiringmanager, and those messages make more of an impact than the words that you useduring the interview,” says Patti Wood, a body languageexpert and author of Snap: Making the Most of First Impressions, BodyLanguage, and Charisma (to be released October, 2012). “Our body languagesays a lot about who we are and our emotional state, and poor body languageoften sends a message that we are stressed or fearful.”
Move up http://i.forbesimg.comtMove down
Wood says don’t wait until you’re in the hot seat tostart focusing on your body language. Be aware of your posture, your facialexpressions and your gestures from the moment you arrive.
Author andcareer expert Dan Burns agrees. “I tryto stress to people that the first impression you make happens before you evensit down to interview,” he says. “The hiring manager will look at your face,your hair, what you’re wearing and the image you are projecting, all before youhave had a chance to formally meet.”
Once the interviewer greets you, make eye contact andoffer a palm-to-palm handshake that is not too strong and not too weak. Keep anappropriate distance as he or she greets you. Relax your body and smile. “Don’tfreeze,” Wood says. “Candidates often stiffen up when they are walking in to aninterview.”
Once you’re in the hot seat, find an appropriate place toset down your belongings. Don’t put your briefcase or purse on your lap or onthe table. Sit up straight, avoid touching your face and hair, and don’t crossyour arms or hide your hands. “Don’t be afraid to gesture,” Wood says.Gesturing shows that you’re enthusiastic and expressive. It can also helpaccess more information in your brain and create vocal variation, she adds.
Power and confidence are typically conveyed through bodylanguage, and so are your stress level and how open and honest you are. “Anemployer will get a sense of who you are and how you will perform underpressure by assessing your body language before, during and after theinterview,” Wood says.
“Interview body language mistakes may tell the hiringmanager that you’re flippant, scared or passive,” she adds. “If you’reunder-qualified or you say the wrong thing, the interviewer can forgive that,but if your body language says you’re a person who doesn’t work well instressful situations or that you’re not confident, that’s something they knowthey can’t change.”
So how do youavoid making body language mistakes? With practice and preparation.
“Practice entering and leaving a room, think about whereyou will put your briefcase during the interview, and plan how you will sayhello and goodbye to the interviewer,” Wood says.
Preparation forthe interview often builds confidence, Burns says. When you’re confident, youtend to have fewer body language issues.
The hiringmanager looks for ways to set a candidate apart from others, Burns says. “Thenegative differentiators, like poor and ineffective body language, help makethe decision easy for the hiring manager.”
In Pictures:Body Language Mistakes That Could Cost You The Job
Here are some interview body language mistakes that could cost you a joboffer.
Weak Handshake
Before you shake hands,rise, walk up to the hiring manager with confidence, make eye contact andsmile.
Move up http://i.forbesimg.com tMove down
“Make sure your handshake is firm, but don’t crush thehiring manager’s hand,” says body language expert and author Patti Wood. “Thesecret to a great handshake is palm-to-palm contact. Slide your hand down intothe web of theirs and make palm-to-palm contact. Lock thumbs with the hiringmanager, and apply as much pressure as he or she does.” But remember that theappropriate pressure varies from culture to culture.
InvadingPersonal Space
Be respectful of thehiring manager’s personal space. Don’t stand too close and certainly don’t hugthem.

Crossing YourArms
That can make you lookdefensive or uncomfortable. Instead, gesture with your hands. That way you’llappear more enthusiastic and engaging.

Playing WithYour Hair
It’s a stress comfort cuethat can make you look childish,” Wood says. You don’t want to distract thehiring manager with this body language gaffe.

Bad Posture
Sit up straight.“Asymmetrical body language can make you look confused or dishonest,” Woodsays.

Lack Of EyeContact
“It’s okay for thecandidate to look away when he or she is talking,” Wood says. “It’s normal tolook around when you’re speaking because you’re accessing different parts ofthe brain by moving your eyes. But be attentive and make eye contact when theinterviewer is speaking.” Think of eye contact as a connection tool.

Looking LikeYou’re Not Interested
“It’s fine if you have anexpressive face,” Wood says. “It makes you more likeable.” But be aware of yourfacial expressions, and don’t check your watch or your cell phone during theinterview.

Not smiling
You can all too easilyappear nervous or unfriendly. Smile, but keep it subtle.

Fidgeting
Don’t touch your face,play with change in your pocket or bite your nails. Fidgeting is a distractionand a sign of anxiety.

Hiding YourHands
“Don’t sit on your handsor hide them in your lap,” Wood says. “Place them on the arms of your chair orthe desk or use them to gesture. Gesturing makes you look more expressive, andthe interviewer can read how open and honest you are by looking at your hands.”

PHOTOS – Proof That Kim Kardashian’sReality Show Is Fake! Scene With Kris Jenner Was Staged
by Reality Tea on January 14th, 2012 491 Comments
 They have been dubbed the‘Fakest Family In Americaand now we have proof that not only are the Kardashians fake but their realityshows are also phony and staged!
While a new episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York airedlast Sunday, Kim Kardashian’shusband of 72 days, Kris Humphries, made the followingcryptic tweet — “I can’t wait for thetruth to come out! People will be surprised or maybe they won’t. #FCC.” Thishad many wondering what Kris could have been referring to and folks, I believewe have cracked the code.
The photos you’re seeingabove of Kim and pimpmomager Kris Jenner were taken on December 6, 2011. The photoagency which snapped the pics stated Kim and Kris were leaving a studio inLos Angeles.
Does Kim outfit lookfamiliar? It should because Kim is sporting the same exact outfit, samehairstyle and same makeup as she did in a scene that aired on KKTNY last Sundaywhich according to E! was filmed in Dubai… in October… weeks before Kim pulledthe plug on her marriage.
In the scene, Kim triesto garner sympathy appear remorseful asshe tells her mom she is having marital issues with hubby Kris. There’s onlyone problem folks: Kim filed for divorceon October 31 and it appears that “Dubai” scene was actually taped in LosAngeles on Dec. 6. Still having doubts? Well, feel free to check out the outfitKris’ assistant is carrying behind her. Ding ding ding! It’s the SAME “Dubai”outfit plus Kris is still wearing the same earrings.
Wowzers. So this provesthe Kardashians’ shows are as phony as the Kardashians. Furthermore, Kim andKris actually filmed this scene last month to not only try to fool theiraudience, but to also try to make Kim a victim. Unfortunately for KrisHumphries, he didn’t get a chance to go back and film phony scenes to help hisimage.
KHLOE KARDASHIAN’S STEPMOMS SAY SHE’SNOT A REAL KARDASHIAN!
Even before we were ableto put two and two together with these images many were already doubting theauthenticity of this “heart to heart” scene between Kim and mom Kris.
For starters, TheImproper blog via Perez Hiltonpoints out that in the scene:
- Windows are totallyblacked out
- No visible lights andthe scene has low lighting
- Scene seems contrived,and could have been staged to gain sympathy for Kim
It gets even better astwo body language experts for the HollywoodLifeblog stated the scene was fake based on the body language and the reaction ofKris to Kim’s bombshell about her marital issues.
“[This seems] completelyphony, staged and emotionless for someone who is not happy about a marriage,” Dr.Lillian Glass told the HollywoodLife. “Plus, Kris’ dialogue is just thatlike of a bad actress giving bad dialogue. There is too much pause time betweenthe answers and her reaction shows no surprise and a matter of factnessmonotone — much like Kim’s indicative non-genuineness.”
Also, raising a red flag was Kris’ reaction to herdaughter’s bad news. “She is smiling while her daughter is sharing thisterrible news,” says body language expert Patti Wood. “This is notnormal. She isn’t leaning toward Kim to show her support or trying to comforther in any way.”
Still need more proofthat the above photo of Kim was taken in December? UsWeekly did a story about Kimand that photo of her on December 7. The story also states Kim was snappedleaving a studio in LA on Dec. 6.
The actual clip of Kimand Kris’ phony heart to heart is below.
As for Kris Humphries,his family and friends have always insisted the show was fake and scriptedincluding scenes which demonstrate Kris being a jerk or villain. “Little didKris know that he was being set up,” his father, William Humphries, told Life & Stylein November. “Kris got used — 100 percent used.”
To close out this story,SHAME on the Kardashians and SHAME on E!. It’s one thing to make a reality showand kind of create scenarios to make it more interesting, but to actually goback and act out FAKE scenes months after the fact is a new low. No word yet onhow the Kardashians and E! will try to defend this.

Body Language Insights of the President's Acceptance Speech

To contact us Click HERE

PresidentObama didn’t look like he was tired and notice how he comes on stage. See howhis arms are dropped down but held up and are away from his sides and his handsappear to be heavy weights. He should be like a lion victorious. Handshanging down below the waist indicate sadness, loss, depression. 
Comparethat to the hands held high and long hand held high waving as he took the stagein his last acceptance speech. 
Alsonotice how he didn't come downstairs towards the audience showing power andconfidence, a move that you typically see in winning candidates that I call thevictory parade. He just tuned in place with his family. 
I loved how Obama's voice went low and warm as he talkedabout his wife Michelle Obama and I also was struck by the chronemics(the cues oftime) Obama spent over a minute talking about her.  I'm actually amazed at the unusually largeamount of time for an acceptance speech. He also paused for over 4 second aftereach comment he made about her. She has been supporting him behind the scenes inways we don't know. He wanted her to know he truly appreciated it. It was notjust for the cameras.

Tess Daly bra malfunction and why Rihanna's dress goes see-through


Why Rihanna's dress goes see-through

 Rihanna must have learned about pathetic fallacy at school

A bit like Rylan, Rihanna's never been the most impressive of live singers (better than Katy, not as good as Mariah), so it's important that she puts on a huge show. We're assuming that this is how she ended up belting out Diamonds on last night's X Factor in

the actual rain. Not even a bit drizzle either, proper rain drops - imagine standing under a leaky gutter in the middle of a monsoon during a Westlife video - that's how weighty they were. It's no big surprise that Rihanna got completely drenched on stage (we think that may have even been part of the plan), with her floor length lace gown going a tad see-through and clinging against her skin.      You know, just in case we'd all forgotten how fit she is. The singer received a standing ovation from the judges following her proper moody performance, but didn't give any generic quotes to Dermot about "what a great year of talent this is" etc.
Despite ruining her sleek do on stage, Rihanna decided not to have her hairstyle redone before greeting fans outside the studio half an hour later (we often turn up to work in a burglar hat when we can't be bothered to do ours either).


Tess Daly bra malfunction


Wowzer! Tess looks amazing in her photoshoot for Hello!In case you haven’t already noticed, we’re pretty good at spotting the odd wardrobe malfunction and nipple slip. But our jaws-dropped when Tess Daly flaunted her assets in a fitted red dress during a live recording of Strictly Come Dancing.She was doing her best to talk about waltzing celebrities but most people (including us) couldn’t take their eyes away from her chest.The presenter explained the situation came about after a little

mishap with selecting a bra that fits.Tess told Hello! magazine:  “I went, "Oh my god, why did nobody tell me about the boobs?" “What happened was, the bra I had on didn't fit the dress so I wore one of those designs that has gel at the sides, which kind of pushes you up and, I guess, gives you an extra couple of cup sizes.”Despite being a model at the start of her career and more recently becoming the face of La Senza, Tess was humble when talking about flaunting her curves. She said: “I don't usually show a lot of cleavage, it's not in my comfort zone. “That'll be the first and last time. The people at home don't want to see that, it's distracting.”
