Shayk, who also posted a collection of shots to her Instagram story, later posed for a scenic snap with photographer Giampaolo Sgura and Ali Kavoussi, the managing partner of The Lions Model Management. Sgura geotagged Skaftafell, Iceland, in his post.
It’s been three years since the rapper’s wife Beyonce revealed to the world on her “Lemonade” album that Jay-Z cheated on her and RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal she still had major trust issues!
“Unfortunately, she will never be able to trust Jay-Z. She has him on a tight leash and always will,” a source close to Beyonce, 37, said.
On June 5, Beyonce and Jay Z, 49, were sitting court side at an NBA basketball game between the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors when the owners wife, Nicole Lacob, started chatting it up with the rapper.
Needless to say, Beyonce was not having any of it — giving Lacob a death stare that instantly went viral on social media.
“Beyonce is incredibly controlling and she gets very upset when she sees him talking to another woman,” the source told Radar.
“Beyonce is not the type of woman to hide how she feels and the instance at the game was a perfect example of this.”
“Their marriage is constantly hot and cold and Jay-Z has morphed into what Beyonce wants him to be. He has lost his individuality and she definitely wears the pants in their marriage.”
it seems options are endless…with some good and some not so good…and others just bad or boring. Here are some binge streaming suggestions for you.
It seems there is a new era of quality entertainment. Options are neck-deep in it with incredible content, be it cable, network television or streaming services. You can be absorbed watching hit series like “The Office” or Sons of Anarchy” again and again, or you can sit back and explore some streaming originals, imports, or deep cable gems. Here are 7 binge worthy shows you should watch.
‘Bad Blood’, Netflix
Traditionally, if a show is an international hit, American producers will buy the rights and adapt it for a US audience. Netflix bucks the trend, opting to buy international distribution rights and providing dubs/subtitles instead. Bad Blood, a Canadian mob drama based on the real-life story of the Montreal-based Rizzuto crime family, is such a series. Often called the “Canadian Sopranos,” this gritty crime series features TV drama vets such as Anthony LaPaglia, Kim Coates, Paul Sorvino, and Enrico Colantoni.
While Netflix has abruptly cancelled all their Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) shows, Runaways has been renewed for a third season by rival streamer Hulu. Based on a series by the same name, the show follows a group of teens bonded by their parents’ membership in a secret, human-sacrificing cabal that controls Los Angeles’ legitimate and illegitimate business world called Pride. They decide to unite against their evil parents, having their world unraveled as they uncover secrets about themselves and their parentage, all while going through the typical teenager stuff.
‘White Gold’, Netflix
Jointly produced by BBC2 and Netflix (the latter has global distribution rights outside of the UK) White Gold is a sitcom based in 80s Sussex and follows ambitious, avarice-filled, and narcissist window salesman Vincent Swan as he chases the thrill of the sale, with complete disregard for those around him. The comparisons to film Wolf of Wall Street are fair, but this is a solid performer, and like so many British sitcoms, only a handful of episodes exist (12 over 2 seasons), so it’s a breezy binge watch that provides enough laughs to keep watching.
‘Future Man’, Hulu
After a solid first two seasons, this self-aware sci-if dark comedy adventure show follows a slacker janitor who’s devoted his entire life outside of professional and personal obligations to finishing an unbeatable game. That game ends up being a simulator to find a warrior that will save the future (if the premise sounds familiar, save it, like I said, it’s pretty self aware). Hulu has renewed the show for a third and final season, and you can binge the first 2 seasons now on Hulu.
‘Bodyguard’, Netflix
This one is another “Netflix Original” that’s really produced for the BBC for which the streamer has distribution rights outside the UK. A smash hit in the United Kingdom, but maybe not noticed as much elsewhere, this political drama-thriller is centered on Police Sergeant David Budd, a PTSD-suffering veteran who is assigned to protect the Home Secretary, with whom he strongly disagrees with politically. Only 6 episodes total and as taut as a drumhead, the opening sequence digs its claws into your attention and doesn’t let go until you’ve finished the entire series.
Amazon’s Red Oaks is another series that takes place in the 80s, and is very true to the era as it tells a coming-of-age story set at a New Jersey country club. The series is bolstered by a strong cast that includes Richard Kind, Paul Reiser and Gina Gershon.
‘You’re The Worst’, FXX/Hulu
What is FXX? Is that some kind of porno channel? If you were just as confused over name of Fox’s cable network as most everyone else, you can hardly be blamed. One gem from this mess of branding however is You’re The Worst, a comedic look at modern dating set in NYC. Critically acclaimed, it never really managed to burst all the way through their deep cable abyss like IFC’s Portlandia did, but thankfully the entire run is available to binge watch and appreciate on Hulu.
Cannabis may have the ability to slow the growth of the cancer or allow us to use less hormonal therapy to control the disease.
What Doctors know about marijuana for prostate cancer from a physician.
Recently there has been interest in prostate cancer and treatment with cannabis. I have treated men with prostate cancer for over 35 years. I have personally been treated for prostate cancer. Therefore any article regarding this disease and any potential treatments are very interesting to me.
At this time we are able to treat local cancer of the prostate with an attempt to cure. Initially we treat cancer with radical surgery, external radiation therapy, radiation seeds, cryotherapy or laser therapy. Metastatic cancer cannot be cured, but usually can be controlled for years. This is usually initially treated with hormone deprivation therapy. When this is no longer effective and treatment is still indicated, we resort to chemotherapy.
Nonsurgical cancer therapy requires a treatment specific to the cancer cells, a good delivery system and targeting of the agent to the cancer cells to ensure adequate absorption, a high enough dosage to treat the cancer cells while limiting side effects. Basically we need to create a smart bomb of drug to focus on cancer cells without significant collateral damage.
Many medical marijuana authors quote two laboratory studies that showed either inhibition of growth or early programmed cell death of prostate cancer cells with cannabis. One study used virally induced cells grown in the lab and the other used prostate cancer cells grafted to the skin of mice.
Putting these studies together we see that cannabis may have the ability to slow the growth of the cancer or allow us to use less hormonal therapy to control the disease, but neither study shows the ability to prevent or cure prostate cancer.
While these studies show some promise for prostate cancer treatment with cannabis, more significant work is necessary to show adequate treatment levels of drug in the living prostate gland and clear positive treatment criteria. In metastatic disease we would have to show improvement in the tests that show metastatic disease in humans.
Should anyone consider medical marijuana as a prevention or cure of prostate cancer at this time? We do not have sufficient data to support this idea. For me it is too great a leap of faith from laboratory experiments to consider treating myself or others with medical cannabis for prostate cancer at this time.
In time with more experimental cannabis research, people are hopeful that medical marijuana will find it’s way into the treatment of prostate cancer.
Now you know what doctors know about marijuana for prostate cancer.
Like a plot line out of Hallmark or the movies An American becoming Queen is like a plot line out of Hallmark or the movies – but is it possible?
The idea of Meghan Markle inheriting the role of Queen of the British monarchy is what Hollywood movies are made of. But is it actually feasible that the Duchess of Sussex, Britain’s queen of fashion, could ever call the throne her own?
As fairytale-esque as the idea sounds, while she can never a Queen like Elizabeth II, he can, become a Queen Consort like Elizabeth, the Queen Mother.
Succession to the British throne is regulated by descent, which is why Prince Charles, the Queen’s son, is next in line, followed by her grandson Prince William. But those who marry into the royal family don’t get a place in the line of succession, which is why Kate Middleton will never be the Queen of England, even when her husband Williams takes the throne. Instead, she will receive the title of Queen Consort. If earning the title of Queen was a competition, Queen Consort would be runner-up.
But for Harry, who has a longer wait to be King (he’s sixth in line to the throne, behind Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis ), it’s unlikely he’ll ever see the throne, which means his wife will likely never become Queen Consort.
This Week’s Music is a weekly column that discusses the week’s best, worst, and most interesting songs. We try to select songs of different artists and genres to keep things interesting and to please a variety of music fans.
This week’s column features Róisín Murphy’s new single, Bon Iver’s return and the much awaited release of the Jonas Brothers’ new album. Check them out!
Electronic
Róisín Murphy – Incapable
“Incapable” is an eight minute art pop song released in 2019. That fact alone is enough to raise a few eyebrows and to make people interested in something different to want to give it a listen. Róisín Murphy has always been known for her strange music, beloved for it and for the fact that she’s not scared to push boundaries and do unexpected things. “Incapable” feels like a throwback to disco and music from other eras, but also like something modern that would be playing in a chic museum. It’s a song that invites you to get lost in its repetitive rhythms and in the singer’s drone and powerful vocals.
Although Bon Iver hasn’t released new music since 2016, front man Justin Vernon’s presence is never too far from the spotlight, making collaborations with other artists and producing great songs. Still, Bon Iver will always be his most successful project. On “Hey, Ma” you can see some of the staple sounds that have made the band what it is today, like the union of old school instruments and tech, enigmatic lyrics and auto tuned vocals. It all results in a song that will please fans even if it doesn’t show us anything new. No matter what, it’s always great to have Bon Iver back.
Pop
Jonas Brothers – Happy When I’m Sad
The Jonas Brothers’ comeback has been a big deal for millennials of all ages, especially those who grew up with a steady diet of Disney channel programing. Their much awaited album “Happiness Begins” is their fifth, and it follows a six year break. The Jonas Brothers are a boy band that appear to be different from the rest; instead of being a group of boys put together by some marketing machine because they’re cute and can sing, the siblings appear to be honest and genuine, a reason why so many fans are still there, eagerly waiting for their music. “Happy When I’m A Sad” is a sweet and catchy song with vulnerability to spare. It might even work for listeners who didn’t grow up listening to Disney channel songs.
While its large size can be intimidating, the Great Dane is a gentle giant that is patient with both adults and children, making it a desirable pet for many families. With a stature measuring up to 32 inches tall and a weight exceeding 175 pounds, adopting a Great Dane is a serious commitment. It’s no wonder the breed is referred to as the “Apollo of Dogs”.
The world’s largest dog, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, is Zeus the Great Dane from Otsego, MI, measuring 44 inches at the shoulder, and 7 feet 4 inches on his hind legs. Currently, the tallest Great Dane is a British bloke named Freddy.
Here, we take notice of the greatest of great Great Danes on Instagram.
It can’t be easy being the spouse of a famous person, especially a royal like Prince Harry, where you’re required to adhere to a certain code of conduct and scrutinized constantly by outsiders.
That’s exactly why Prince Harry preferred to marry a celebrity — someone who was already used to being in the spotlight.
That’s according to his buddies by way of The Sunday Times, which reports that Harry was already contemplating a celeb collab way before Meghan Markle because he knew a plebeian wouldn’t likely be able to handle the pressure of being his Forever Plus One. It’s believed to be the main reason several of his prior relationships hit the skids.
And while he reportedly wasn’t looking for a famous girlfriend when he met Suits actress Markle, it was likely a check in the plus column. A “close source” of Harry’s tells the Times:
It makes sense that he has ended up with a celebrity… he feels comfortable being with someone who has already come to terms with the price of fame in the way that his other girlfriends never could.
And as The Daily Beastpoints out, during Markle and Harry’s first sit-down interview, she definitely down-played her celebrity, saying: “There’s a misconception that, because I worked in the entertainment industry, that this is something I would be familiar with. But even though I had been on my show for, I guess, six years at that point and working before that, I’ve never been part of tabloid culture. I’ve never been in pop culture to that degree and lived a relatively quiet life, even though I focus so much on my job.”
Instagram is home to all sorts of accounts (good and bad) that cater to a vast range of people with different interests. In order to help you weed out all the garbage, this column highlights the best Instagram marijuana accounts, whether that means they’re entertaining, informative, or just fun to look at.
This week’s column features the Academy of Cannabis Science, one of the country’s first cannabis colleges that’s run in partnership with Seattle Central College and UNLV. These partnerships are done in order to provide the best courses available for people who are interested in working on the cannabis industry. Their Instagram account provides verified information that informs followers on all sorts of cannabis facts, which might surprise even the most avid of marijuana enthusiasts.

Threesomes are a big part of our culture but they’re kind of like big foot. We hear of them a lot but there’s just no tangible proof. Suggesting to have a threesome in real life screams of awkwardness for everyone involved, especially now in our digital age when communicating and being physical with each other is becoming harder and more sparse. It’s 2019 so naturally, apps had to jump in and facilitate these meetings.
There are quite a few apps that are threesome oriented. There’s Feeld, the artsy and elegant one out of the bunch, which advocates for fluidity and has some really cool Instagram posts. There’s 3Somer which is more straightforward, separating people into singles and couples and pairing one with the other. There’s also the personals Reddit thread, which, believe it or not, has become the new Craigslist, facilitating cuddle sessions, threesomes and everything in between. While uploading your own posting on the site sounds like jumping into shark infested waters, some brave people have achieved their goals.

Elle magazine interviewed some couples on their threesome app experiences and found that they had a lot of things to say. One couple claimed that Feeld had facilitated over 10 successful threesomes. Another couple said that they’d been using 3some for years and still had no success. “It’s just a numbers game—the more feelers we have out there, the higher the chances of meeting others that we can play with,” they said.
Most people agree that looking for threesomes is a tough and time consuming process. The interested parties scouting for partners are often left unsatisfied since most of the app users are there out of curiosity. Another aspect that was mentioned several times is the fact that threesome apps are similar to dating apps when it comes to their success rate; there’s a lot of swiping and not a lot of face to face meetings. “[My husband and I] have talked to lots of women but haven’t actually met with any of them yet […] I’m a little disillusioned by these apps.”
It seems like threesomes remain elusive, no matter how much digital help there is at our disposal. People still have to scout for them the old school way: by getting drunk with a friend and never speaking of it again, or else stumbling upon an orgy. Good luck.
Thanks to a coroner’s diagnosis in Louisiana, the debate around THC overdoses has resumed once more in full force. Concern trolls like Danny Kannell have flocked in full force to point, emphatically, that marijuana has “side effects” of usage, while cannabis advocates have referenced empirical data and statistics to push back against such claims. So which is it — have we just witnessed the first recorded marijuana death in the United States or is something else going on here?
According to the New Orleans Advocate, coroner Christy Monegut diagnosed a 39-year-old woman, found dead in her apartment, as having died from vaping THC oil after viewing the woman’s toxicology reports.
“It looked like it was all THC because her autopsy showed no physical disease or afflictions that were the cause of death. There was nothing else identified in the toxicology—no other drugs, no alcohol,” Montegut told the Advocate. “There was nothing else.”
For the record, the National Institute of Drug Abuse — a federal government research institution — reports there’s never been an adult death due to THC. In addition, The National Center for Biotechnology Information, an offshoot of the National Institutes of Health, also said there’s been “no known cases of fatal overdose from cannabis use in the epidemiologic literature,” according to Newsweek.
In the original Advocate report, Keith Humphreys, the former senior policy adviser at the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, also pushed back against claims of marijuana overdose. Due to how much cannabis is consumed in the United States each year, we should see more cases of marijuana overdoses happening if consuming cannabis caused such a deadly reaction, even if the chances are only 1 in 1,000,000.
“We know from really good survey data that Americans use cannabis products billions of times a year, collectively. Not millions of times, but billions of times a year,” Humphreys told the Advocate. “So, that means that if the risk of death was one in a million, we would have a couple thousand cannabis overdose deaths a year.”
And while Montegut has asserted “100% certainty” in her assessment of marijuana overdose, Noah Kaufman, a Colorado-based emergency room doctor wasn’t so sure of such claims. Kaufman urged caution in using edibles or high-potency concentrates like shatter, but after viewing Montegut’s autopsy and toxicology report, he remained skeptical.
“Everything looked above the board, and the only thing they found was the THC in the blood and so they made an association,” Kaufman told 4WWL.
While we emphasize to new and old marijuana users alike to practice care and safety when using cannabis, especially any high-potency products as Kaufman mentioned, the evidence seems overwhelming that we don’t know the full story of how this Louisiana woman died. Otherwise, you’d have to believe one Louisiana coroner is correct in her assessment and federal institutions and doctors are wrong in theirs.
