Teacher and mother of 2 arrested for having sex with teenage student in Pizza Hut parking lot

Image
  A private Christian school teacher and mother of two in South Carolina, USA  was arrested on Wednesday, November 15 for pressuring a teenage student into having sex and sending him naked pictures, police said.   Reagan Anderson, 27, is facing two counts of sexual battery with a child 17 years of age, according to an arrest warrant obtained by WCSC. “A trusted coach, teacher and friend that abused our trust and violated her oath as an educator. She has ruined our son’s life,” the victim’s mother blasted Anderson during her Thursday court hearing.   He should be 100% focused on being a fun-loving football-playing young man, but this predator has robbed him of that ability. No young quarterback or athlete is safe in our community if this woman is free.” The Holly Hill Academy teacher allegedly began abusing the 17-year-old in October. The first assault reportedly took place in a private residence in Holly Hill, a small town 50 miles north of Charleston, fo...

Sam Altman sacked as CEO of ChatGPT

Image
  Sam Altman, the Silicon Valley CEO behind the artificial intelligence-powered chatbots ChatGPT and GPT-4, has been sacked by the company’s board of directors which said it has lost confidence in him.    Announcing the sack which has sent stunning shockwaves through the budding AI industry, the board said an internal investigation found that Altman was not always truthful.   The statement read;    “Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities. The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.”   OpenAI announced Mira Murati, the company’s chief technology officer, will serve as interim CEO until a permanent successor is chosen. ChatGPT launched late last year, making Altman an overnight quasi-celebrity and the face of a new crop of AI to...

Starvation is Imminent - UN warns as aid supplies to Gaza are halted again

Image
UN aid deliveries to Gaza were suspended again on Friday November 17, due to shortages of fuel and a communications shutdown, increasing the misery of thousands of hungry and homeless Palestinians as Israeli troops battled Hamas militants in the enclave. The United Nations’ World Food Programme (WFP) said civilians faced the “immediate possibility of starvation” due to the lack of food supplies. With the war between Israel and Hamas about to enter its seventh week, there was no sign of any slow down despite international calls for a ceasefire or at least for humanitarian pauses.  Palestinian news agency WAFA said a number of Palestinians were killed and others injured in an Israeli strike that hit a group of displaced people near the Rafah border crossing between the Gaza Strip and Egypt. Al Jazeera TV cited sources as saying that nine people were killed in the strike. Al Jazeera also said that at least 18 Palestinians were killed after an Israeli strike hit a house in ...

George weah concedes defeat in Liberia election adjudged by international observers as best in Africa

Image
  Liberian leader and football legend George Weah conceded defeat to opposition leader Joseph Boakai after a tight presidential run-off, saying it was "time to put national interest above personal interest". With more than 99.5 percent of the polling stations reporting vote tallies after Tuesday's second-round vote, Boakai had garnered 50.89 percent of ballots cast, according to the election commission.  Boakai was 28,000 votes ahead of Weah, according to Friday's figures. The two finished neck-and-neck in the first round last month, with a national lead of just 7,126 votes for Weah. The election of Weah - the first African footballer to win both FIFA's World Player of the Year trophy and the Ballon d'Or, had sparked high hopes of change in Liberia, which is still suffering from back-to-back civil wars and the 2014-2016 Ebola epidemic.  But critics have accused his government of corruption and him of failing to keep to his promises.   In an election...

Image
  Joan Tarshis, the actress who had an a wkward interview about Bill Cosby with Don Lemon years ago, has filed a lawsuit over alleged assault against the TV personality.    Tarshis outrightly accused Cosby of rape, alleging that he drugged her on two different occasions back in the early '70s. In documents obtained by TMZ, she claimed she first met Cosby at the age of 19 through a mutual friend and got invited to the studio where they filmed the 'Cosby Show' for a one-on-one writing session.   She claims while alone with Cosby in his private bungalow on the lot, Cosby gave her a drink, which she accepted and consumed, only to start feeling dizzy shortly thereafter. Tarshis said she quickly passed out and woke up to Cosby undressing her.   Tarshis says she was disoriented while she tried fighting Cosby off, and claims he overpowered her and forced his penis into her mouth without consent.     About a year after this, Tarshis claims Cosby rea...

Drake disses Pusha T on 'Scary Hours 3', describes him as a "broke rapper"

Image
Rapper Drake has taken another shot at fellow entertainer, Pusha T, in his "Scary Hours" drop, the deluxe edition of "For All The Dogs."   On “Wick Man,” Drake avenged his longtime friend/producer Noah "OVO 40" Shebib . Recall that in 2018, Pusha released "The Story of Adidon" on which he dissed 40's multiple sclerosis disorder with no remorse.   Drake ripped into Pusha in the new song, using the same cadence the Clipse rapper once used to diss him, and added some slander of his bank account “Man, I remember n****s was joking ’bout some tick, tick/ And now that rapper broke as f***, that boy a statistic ... empty clips.”   Pusha rapped "tick, tick" to describe the clock that was supposed to spell out 40's demise on ‘Adidon’, his venomous diss that also spilled the beans on Drake having a son .   "Wick Man" marks Drake's 2nd Pusha snipe this year, as he also called him out on Travis Scott's hit "Uto...

Image
  An 11-year-old boy asked UK Prince William about his financial situation during a visit to the Hideaway Youth Project in Manchester, England this week.   The boy, named Amir Hassan, asked William, “How much do you have in your bank account?” according to the Telegraph. The future king broke out into laughter, surprised by the question, before admitting that he “didn’t know.”  The kids were working on an art project that involved cutting out hairstyles from magazines they thought were empowering during William’s visit, and the kids reportedly asked William if he wanted to join in.   “I’m literally the last person you should ask,” William joked back. “My hair is disappearing.” It is protocol for members of the royal family to never carry cash on them, reportedly for security reasons, although Queen Elizabeth II was known to carry bills in her purse on Sundays for church donation. When King Charles ascended to the throne, William inherited the Duchy of Cornwall...
