• Charlotte FC Forward Daniel Ríos Voted MLS Player of the Week

The 27-year-old Mexican, acquired in an early-season trade from Nashville SC, is the 13th different player in MLS history to score at least four goals in a single game. Ríos’ four-goal performance was the first by a player on an expansion team in their inaugural season in MLS history, and his six goals on the season are the second most by a Charlotte player (Swiderski, 10). Under both former head coach Miguel Angel Ramierez as well as Lattanzio, Charlotte has made a habit, as so many teams do now, to play the ball closely to the defenders and then work out of the back with targeted passes.

It got even better for Charlotte two minutes into added time when McKinze Gaines took a flicked pass from Santos down the right and put it across the goalmouth where Rios claimed his fourth goal. When tested, Sisniega held his ground, as did the men in front, deflecting or blocking Union incursions. Even then, this was against the best Philadelphia story to date since the club’s debut in 2010. The Union already had two more wins (18) than their top season to date, which was 16 in 2019 when they finished third in the East.

It hasn’t been an easy season, but we are still fighting, we still believe and I’m so happy that I was able to score. With Ríos’ departure, Charlotte retain Andre Shinyashiki and Karol Swiderski as options at center forward. They’re also close to formally adding Enzo Copetti from Argentina’s Racing Club, as reported by MLSsoccer.com’s Tom Bogert. Rios returns to Liga MX, where he originally developed in the Chivas academy, after three seasons in MLS.

Ríos believes that scoring that first goal was a huge confidence boost for the team leading into the game against the New England Revolution. The 2024 Atlanta United FC season is the eighth season of Atlanta United FC's existence, and the sixteenth year that a professional soccer club from Atlanta, Georgia competing in the top division of American soccer. Atlanta United will play their home games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Somone who has started the season in fine form has been goalkeeper, Kristijan Kahlina, who has produced crucial saves in the opening games of the season. We are all trying to understand each other, but that only comes with minutes on the pitch. Of course, if we can win games and earn points during this process, that’s the most ideal thing, but it’s part of the process.

The energy they bring even before the match begins to the very last whistle is contagious, and Ríos says that the players feed off of it. Ríos ranked this match as one of the top three best games of his career and went as far as to say that it probably tops the list. However, it hasn’t been all rainbows and sunshine for the Club but the team is still believing and fighting until the very end.

Charlotte are entering their first full season under head coach Christian Lattanzio. They missed the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs as a first-year club, slotting ninth in the Eastern Conference table. “It was a pleasure to see Dani’s skills evolve throughout the year and make a strong impact on the field late in the season, which is a testament to the type of player development we’re building at Charlotte FC,” sporting director Zoran Krneta said in a release.

The outcome prevented the Union ( , 64 points) from clinching the Eastern Conference title. Philadelphia has a home game Oct. 9 against Toronto to conclude the regular season. The MLS Player of the Week presented by Continental Tire is selected each week of the regular season through both media and fan voting in a process conducted by MLS Communications. A panel of journalists from the North American Soccer Reporters (NASR) comprises 75 percent of the vote, while a Twitter fan vote represents the remaining 25 percent of voting.

Another question regards who the backup goalkeeper would be if Kahlina cannot play. In the 72nd minute, Charlotte won a penalty kick when Nuno Santos’ shot, off a Jozwiak pass, was blocked by the outstretched arm of Kai Wagner. Rios calmly placed it inside the left post to give him Charlotte’s first hat trick and a 3-0 lead.

GOAL: Daniel Ríos, Charlotte FC - 58th minute

NASR consists of members of print, television, radio, and online media. Ríos scored all four goals in Charlotte’s 4-0 victory over the Philadelphia Union, preventing the Eastern Conference leaders from staying in Supporters’ Shield contention and keeping their own Audi 2022 MLS Cup Playoffs hopes ticking. One week after Karol Swiderski took home MLS Player of the Week presented by Continental Tire honors, forward Daniel Ríos has earned the same award following a four-goal showing in Week 33.

We feel more confident knowing we have a goalkeeper like him in the back. The saves he made against Atlanta, Galaxy, and D.C were amazing. “As an expansion team it is difficult in the first season, mostly because most of the guys are new, everything on the team is new. It’s about adapting and knowing each other on the field, the final goal is to win games and win the championship.

They came into the match even on points (64) with LAFC and eager for three more in their pursuit of the Supporters Shield, which goes to the team with the most at the end of the regular season. Despite taking five corner kicks, Philadelphia didn't have many scoring chances. Additionally, Nashville SC will receive 10% of any future transfer fee outside of Major League Soccer. “I think we are doing on the field what the fans expect from us.

It is 80 proof, in contrast with its three sibling brands of higher alcohol concentration. A subtly sweet combination of citrus and natural tangy kombucha, finished with hints of tropical passionfruit and guava. Tropically fruity; its ripe banana flavor, emphasised by a hint of bitterness, comes from the addition of real fair trade bananas and finishes with emphatic, steel dryness. An ale that is light and crisp while medium-bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. The sour, salty base beer lays down the funky refreshment, while a heavy dose of passion fruit.

A kombucha/ale hybrid combining brewing techniques from craft beer with traditional kombucha fermentation. We add pineapple juices to our fermented apple base to produce a cider which is the ideal tropical drink especially in hot, humid climates. The nostalgic champions of the campus protests of the ’60s would have Americans believe they were a heroic success, stopping the Vietnam War.

Absolutely love Righteous Tap House as our local right around the corner spot. Plenty of great beers available and the bar service is excellent. The staff are very friendly and the food never lets you down.

Righteous Tap House Reviews

Some argue that democracy is all about strength in numbers, and that’s partly true. But democratic will is exercised by the private actions of individual voters casting secret ballots. The strength in numbers invoked by most large protests is better understood as populism, and populism has an uglier history than democracy, from the long history of race riots to Jan. 6. The Jim Crow-era civil rights protests were noble because the cause was noble. They did not prove that protesting is always good, merely that it can be. Replace the March on Washington with the Nazi march on Skokie, Ill., and you get the point.

Subtle malt sweetness is balanced by a touch of hops, creating a versatile beer with a clean finish. An intensely hoppy pale ale with minimal malt character, designed to showcase its strong hop flavors. A malty beer that uses its hop flavor to complement and enhance its chocolate and caramel characters. Honeylike sweetness with candied orange peel and white chocolate with a subtle, tender finish. Produced in the tradition of 18th Century English brewers who supplied the court of Russia’s Catherine the Great, Old Rasputin seems to develop a cult following wherever it goes.

Editorial: The attack on the UCLA protest encampment was unacceptable

Similar in balance, body, finish and flavor intensity to a semisweet (or medium-dry) white wine, with a pleasant mixture of honey character, light sweetness, soft fruity esters, and clean alcohol. A very strong ale with hop character, rich malt flavors, and prevalent alcohol with a very long finish. Our White Ale features the complex flavors of the classic witbier, including orange peel and coriander – all brewed with pure Icelandic water that delivers a cool smoothness that is flavorful and refreshingly drinkable.

Column: What we keep getting wrong about protests like those at USC, Columbia and other campuses

They’ve convinced themselves, and the young minds they shape, that protest is self-justifying, a rite of passage of enlightened youth. A very dark, full-bodied, roast ale with a complementary oatmeal flavor. The tropical tones of passion fruit, orange, and gooseberry aren’t far behind. The cider character must always be present, and must fit with added ingredients. If a spirit barrel was used, the character of the spirit (rum, whiskey, etc.) must be no more than just recognizable; it must not be a substantial element of the flavor.

Big boozy bourbon and American oak aromas combine with soft chocolate malt undertones. Complex malt flavors framed in oak with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla, toasted coconut and a touch of dark cherry. Aged for three months in Wild Turkey® Bourbon barrels, this luxurious stout has a deep ebony hue and a beautiful mahogany head. The woody, vanilla-like notes imparted by the barrels mingle with aromas of fresh baked bread, toffee, and espresso and envelop the rich chocolate and roasted barley flavors with a fine bourbon character. A moderate, refreshing ale with noticeable hop aroma balanced by supporting malt flavors.

The apple character marries with the added fruit to create a balanced flavor. Rich flavors of baked apple and pear, layered with toasted oak, notes of caramel and brown spice with a smooth, lingering finish. Blend of American imperial stout and Belgian-inspired dark ale aged in bourbon barrels. A gold-colored, light-bodied beer with crisp, floral hop aroma.

An easy-drinking pint that balances toffee and caramel sweetness with a roasted dry finish. Inspired by the iconic fruit cart vendors of Los Angeles. A light, refreshing wheat ale with lots of fresh mango & a slightly tart finish.

The complex formula is created by blending more than 100 different batches of malt and grain whiskies. Produced in small batches and aged for a minimum of two and a half years, Don Julio 1942® Tequila is handcrafted in tribute to the year that Don Julio González began his tequila-making journey. A light-bodied lager designed with drinkability in mind. A highly carbonated, medium-bodied lager that is well-balanced. All beers available on a first come, first served basis.

Highly recommend the soft pretzel knots and the South Philly style wings. Again, not all protests are ugly riots or mass tantrums. But the tolerance often shown for both is a product of romantic impulses driven by ’60s nostalgia. As a generation, progressive baby boomers take a back seat to nobody in their stunning self-regard and overestimation of their historical importance. But these people have shaped the narratives of academia, entertainment and journalism.

My husband enjoys the wings and we both love the nachos for a shared app! Lately we’ve sat at the bar when we visit and the service has been wonderful. Welcoming a work crowd, a date night or two and famished families, the interior is unpretentious, fun and just delightfully whimsical. Dark-wood floors under a 20-seat expanded bar lit for love (extra points for comfy stools) and well-padded, high-backed booths throughout allow for private conversation. The back of the long room is anchored by an eight-seat you-have-to see-to-believe hand-carved masterpiece of a table designed by Masishin.

The People’s Market, for starters, is teeing up its second location in Charlotte about a year after making a revival in the Elizabeth neighborhood. The Cheesecake Factory menu features more than 200 menu selections made fresh each day. The Cheesecake Factory doesn’t just serve cheesecake. The menu is very diverse and should offer something to please even the strictest palate.

Eventually, they moved to Los Angeles and gave the business one more shot. It was a success and she was now selling her famous cheesecakes to restaurants all over Los Angeles. Charlotte wasn’t without its restaurant closures in July either. Bonterra closed in SouthPark late last month, ending its 24-year run in Charlotte. And Dogwood Southern Table & Bar, also in SouthPark, will close in August, with celebrity chef David Burke buying its lease and assets to open a new concept there.

Dessert

Food items range from hamburgers to southern comfort food, to Asian-inspired dishes. Choose from more than 250 dishes made fresh from scratch every day and more than 40 legendary cheesecakes and desserts. Though not locally based, The Cheesecake Factory is set to open its second Charlotte-area restaurant this month at Birkdale Village in Huntersville. That 2,500-square-foot location will mark the fifth for the brand. Charlotte brewery Resident Culture is also putting its next location in uptown, at The Market at 7th Street. It plans to open that 300-square-foot bar — its third location in Charlotte — this month.

SouthPark Mall

The Cheesecake Factory is my one exception to that rule. I've loved everything I've ever had there. We don't have one nearby, but I've eaten at various ones while traveling. Two of my favorites are the Chicken Piccata (with mashed potatoes instead of angel hair pasta) and the Pasta Da Vinci.

We stood up next to the wall and a nice couple walked up and handed us their pager. They said you will only have a five-minute wait. So we waited for about five minutes and sure enough, they called us back.

The Cheesecake Factory is a beautiful restaurant. It reminds me of pictures I have seen of restaurants and buildings in Italy. My wife and I have been trying to eat at The Cheesecake Factory in Charlotte, NC for years. Every time we would try, there would be a long wait.

For instance, I ordered Chicken Madeira, one of their specialty dishes. My wife ordered Orange Chicken, an Asian-inspired dish. When you walk into the restaurant, it is truly breathtaking. I do not believe I have ever been to a more beautiful chain restaurant before. We walked up and added our names to the list, It is going to be an hour wait the lady said.

My name is Ronnie and it is my goal to bring you the best Southern-inspired recipes, reviews, and restaurants from the South and beyond. To be honest we almost did not go because so many people told us the food was not good but the dessert was. I thought both of our dishes was fantastic!. Ronnie, I've found that restaurants with huge menus are usually not very good.

According to The Cheesecake Factory Website, it all started in the 1940s when Evelyn Overton found a recipe in her local Detroit newspaper. This recipe inspired her to make the Original Cheesecake that we all know and love today. Enjoy the high-energy atmosphere seven days a week, serving appetizers, lunch, dinner, late night dining, full bar, Saturday & Sunday brunch, and curbside To-Go service. In a different part of the Charlotte area, local chef Jim Noble just opened his fourth location of Bossy Beulah’s Chicken Shack in Fort Mill. That’s as local franchisees brought the region’s third Slim Chickens to Indian Trail. They really make the best cheesecake but I also have to say the food we ate beforehand was really good as well.

There are also new-to-market additions in Charlotte. One such concept, Puerta, will be opening later this month, paying homage to Mexican food and spirits in Elizabeth. Let’s be honest here, most people come for dessert right? On the way out, they have a huge counter where you can order any type of cheesecake you can imagine. I got Fresh Strawberry Cheesecake and my wife got Oreo Dream Extreme Cheesecake.

Specifically designed for the delicate skin around your eyes, new advanced formulas can transform the area from dull, dark and puffy to smooth, soft, refreshed and revitalised. Applying powder as the final step will help set your concealer and provide crease resistance and control shine. Depending on your preference and desired finish, you can use either a pressed powder, like Charlotte Tilbury Mini Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder or Quiet on Set Setting Powder, or a loose powder, such as Dior Forever Cushion Powder.

The Emotion-Boosting Molecules in ‘More Sex’ are proven to enhance feelings of seduction. Sensual Sandalwood Oil Caledonia, seductive Sexual Accord, addictive Leather Accord and velvety Musk have the most magical chemistry, intertwining to create a sexy and provocative scent that brings excitement to winter nights. Fall victim to any of these no-nos, and there’s a good chance you won’t get the coverage you want out of your concealer. So finely milled, it's undetectable on the skin yet has the setting power of a heavy duty powder. Watching the demonstrations I've started using Charlotte's placement too, for lifting across the face, and it's really elevated concealer to a key player in my daily five-minute-makeup.

You’ll also find Mica, which leaves a luminous, brightening effect on the skin. Well, it had to be from Charlotte Tilbury, and the Magic Vanish – the long wear, under eye brightening, and pigmentation colour corrector. We’re always looking for new ways to fake a good night’s sleep – and social media users have recently been raving about one colour-correcting product that not only instantly brightens the under-eye area, but conceals and corrects dark circles too.

MAGIC VANISH

The best fragrances for winter are warm scents that feel comforting in the coldest months and capture the magic of the holidays and the beginning of a new year. To cover something up, you want to choose the shade that matches your skin perfectly. But for this facelifting technique, you want to go with a shade that’s one or two steps lighter than that. With 30 shades to choose from, Tilbury says she’s confident that she has the right one for you. Did you notice the Byrdie Verified seal of approval at the top of this story?

Charlotte Tilbury's new Radiant Skin concealer is ideal for those who don't wear foundation

If anything, I've found that it settles into your skin and looks better as the day goes on. It gives a more matte effect after you first use it, then gets a bit dewier a few hours later. I cannot sing enough praises about this concealer, and at $32, it’s one of Charlotte’s more affordable products—and in my opinion, worth every damn penny. Of course, now that I’m getting older and notice bags, lines, and dark spots creeping up that never existed before (ugh), I find myself relying on concealer to cover my sins more and more—but still. Radiate feelings of springtime joy with the best fresh and floral fragrances for spring from my Fragrance Collection of Emotions. Discover the scent of summertime with my best fragrances for summer including warm, fresh, and floral fragrances that radiate summer love.

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away Concealer brightens and evens skin and erases pores, undereye circles, acne breakouts, and more. While it's not ideal for covering heavy discoloration—and the sponge-tipped applicator can be difficult to work with—the actual product is an ideal full-coverage, liquid concealer for everyday wear. “When in doubt, a translucent or skin-toned powder will always work,” says Thompson. “However, you want the powder to be slightly lighter than your complexion to allow for the concealer’s brightening effect.” For a seamless and long-lasting finish, gently press the powder onto the concealer using a brush or sponge.

She began her career in beauty journalism with the British Vogue team, where she discovered that beauty isn’t just frivolous but can be a tool to empower individuals and give them a voice which they were not afforded. If you haven't tried the Beautiful Skin Foundation (the one product so light and natural that it may just have persuaded me back to wearing foundation) you can use the online matchfinder tool for both the foundation(as seen below) and the concealer. A gorgeous pink toned shade that works on all skin tones and for all looks. Charlotte Tilbury's Beautiful Skin Radiant Concealer is a rare find that for me, exceeds the hype. Not only does it seriously deliver on its promises to brighten, conceal and correct without masking the skin, it has also solved one of my most frequent makeup gripes; it works beautifully with a bare face.

The best with Vitamin C: MUDMASKY Eye Cream

The Live Tinted Hue Stick Corrector contains vitamins C and E (as well as squalane and hyaluronic acid) to help nourish the under-eye area as it conceals dark circles. I rely on blush and bronze to even and perk up my complexion, but one area that does need a little more love for this fresh-faced look, is my dark under eye area. The trouble then being, it's hard to find a concealer that has enough coverage to do the job, that doesn't contrast with bare skin in texture or tone. Then any product light enough to blend out invisibly, can only do so much for the dark circles, and doesn't tend to last long. From camouflaging blemishes to masking dark under-eye circles, finding the best concealer can be a sure way to achieve a healthy look. I always end up picking a shade that’s not quite right—I don’t whether that’s a me problem or a concealer problem.

Before installing a kitchen in a tiny ADU, homeowners should assess its purpose, measure it carefully, research small-scale appliances and imagine it as a full-size kitchen. Representatives for Pratt and Schwarzenegger did not immediately respond to The Times’ request for comment on Monday. As more reports about the Ellwood razing surfaced, handfuls of social media users also revived “Worst Chris,” a dig that stemmed from a viral tweet about the Hollywood Chrises (Chris Hemsworth, Pratt, Chris Pine and Chris Evans). But MAGA Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio said Democrats “will come to regret” dismissing the Mayorkas impeachment articles, when a Republican-run Senate someday does the same to impeachment articles from a Democratic-majority House. Democrats take governing too earnestly to impeach a Republican on such overtly political grounds as those against Mayorkas.

Column: Hapless House Republicans weaponized impeachment. It backfired

On Wednesday, Star, 34, kicked off the new year by giving a tour of his massive new compound — which he calls “dream home castle” — in a video shared on his YouTube channel. The group then embarked on a tour of the home's arcade, which is filled with Star's collection of pinball machines, and its wine cellar, which Star said he'd turn into a "weed cellar." In addition to selling meat, Star said the store will house vehicles from his extensive car collection, set pieces from makeup photoshoots, and other memorabilia from throughout his career.

What is the address of the Jeffree Star’s property?

Star said that his business headquarters would remain in LA, where the warehouse for Jeffree Star Cosmetics has been since 2016. Just a month later, Star shocked his long-time fans by announcing he was selling his LA mansion and moving to Wyoming as a full-time resident. According to Star, he and Daniel hit black ice and flipped three times while Star was driving.

The mansion is nothing short of glamorous …

Situated on 1.1 hectares, the 19,000 sq ft estate is located within the gated community of Ashley Ridge in Hidden Hills. The sweeping mansion is designed in a French Normandy style and the massive backyard offers a pool and spa, two cabana areas, a fire pit and two outdoor kitchens for entertaining. The YouTuber’s rustic new home is located at the foot of Casper Mountain. The 6,000-square-foot main house includes six bedrooms, a sizable eat-in chef’s kitchen that opens into a family room, and another cozy den connecting the open-plan living and dining area and the main suite. The house also includes a two-car garage, while an adjacent “shop” offers room for several more of Star and his entourage’s vehicles. According to one of our favorite sources on celebrity incomes, the YouTube sensation is worth a whopping $50 million.

Star later wrote that he was in "excruciating pain" and had broken his back. Star was discharged the next day but Daniel posted that he experienced internal bleeding and needed to stay longer. Star celebrated his "official" residency in Wyoming and announced he had donated $25,000 to a local holiday toy drive for a children's non-profit organization.

Star posts pictures of his yaks, which have names like Blossom and Snowflake. He has posted about buying yaks from multiple local yak farmers, continuing his newfound Casper tradition of shouting out local artists, craftsmen, and business owners. The reasons Star gave ET for his move were that he said he felt like he'd lived many lives over the course of his LA-based career and needed to get away from the hustle and bustle.

It’s a place where glamour meets discretion, a perfect backdrop for those in the spotlight. Star’s story is not just about fame and fortune; it’s a narrative of resilience, transformation, and the relentless pursuit of one’s passions in the face of adversity and change. Jeffree shared a photo of a lone yak on a hillside of his Star Yak Ranch in Wyoming on July 15, 2021. There’s nothing like wearing Louis Vuitton when tending to a yak on his ranch.

Jeffree Star, ironically enough, started to initially gain popularity on the platform Myspace. Back in the early 2000s star began to amass quite a following on the channel and eventually became the most followed individual on the platform back in 2006. The residence even comes with two 2-car garages to facilitate his swanky rides. The yard boasts a patio that encircles a gigantic swimming pool and Jacuzzi, a pergola seating area with pink cushions and fire pit with pink glass rocks, and an outdoor cooking area. After a tumultuous 2020, Jeffree Star is bidding farewell to California. The cosmetics mogul is selling his 19,549-square-foot Hidden Hills mansion for $20 million, only a year and a half after moving in, Dirt reports.

On December 20, 2020, shortly after a bombshell Insider report, Star donated $25,000 to a local toy drive.

In January, he unveiled a "Wyoming Winter" line of hydration products and winter accessories, including lip and face oils, a healing hand salve, a yak plushie, and knee-high socks. The skincare items are designed to "keep you flawless and hydrated even in the harshest winters," he wrote in a promotional post. Star also argued that his vegan cosmetics brand "has nothing to do with my yak ranch," clarifying that they were separate companies. Starting in early January of this year, Star began using his Wyoming property as a focal point in his vlogs and makeup content on his YouTube channel. In one January 12 video, Star tested out a $68 Gucci foundation by wearing it while shooting a pink AR-15 at a local Casper gun range. Initially, Star wrote that he was going to live part-time on a ranch in order to write his autobiography.

"This is definitely the exact kind of house where you would dream," Gambino said in an interview with USA TODAY. "It's a very special house where people immediately get, you know, emotionally connected when they're there." With the Zimmerman House now a pile of rubble and Pratt and Schwarzenegger’s new mansion reportedly still in early construction, Ellwood said she hopes the couple considers giving back to the architecture community amid the backlash. Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger demolished a famed midcentury home designed by late architect Craig Ellwood to make room for a new, modern mansion. Never mind that Senate Republicans let the former president off the hook each time. Over the last decade, voters have approved Proposition HHH to build homeless housing, Measure H to deliver homeless services and Measure ULA to keep people from slipping into homelessness.

Based on his YouTube statistics, it’s estimated that Star makes around $4,000 per day from his streaming alone. Most of you already know that Star has several side projects including brand deals, modeling, singing/songwriting, and real estate, but perhaps his most profitable is his cosmetics line. According to Cosmopolitan, the internet sensation told David Dobrik back in 2018 that his actual net worth is $150 million.

While many Hidden Hills homes boast luxury, Jeffree’s mansion stands out for its unique blend of French Normandy architecture and modern glam. This juxtaposition sets it apart in a neighborhood known for its exclusive estates. To highlight the unique interior design choices in Jeffree Star’s mansion, here’s a detailed comparison of specific design elements found in his home versus those typically seen in standard luxury homes. Jeffree Star’s mansion, a stunning example of French Normandy architecture, stands as a testament to timeless elegance. Its steeply pitched roofs, half-timbering, and stonework exude a sense of historical grandeur, while seamlessly integrating modern luxury. Jeffree Star, a name synonymous with boldness and creativity, rose to fame through his YouTube channel and cosmetics line.

The lot also has a mansion-sized, 5,400-square-foot “beauty barn” for makeup and hair. Ellwood, an Ojai-based interior designer, spoke to The Times about her father’s late ‘40s Brentwood commission, known among locals as the Zimmerman House after original owners Martin and Eva Zimmerman. The property, which she described as a “time capsule” because of its Midcentury Modern aesthetic, was purchased last year and set for demolition seemingly without reason. In recent weeks, several reports revealed that the Marvel star and Schwarzenegger purchased the lot for $12.5 million and that their new mansion — to be designed by Ken Ungar — was the reason for the teardown. The home, which is located inside a gated community, has eight bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, a guesthouse, a 10-car garage and a barn. To provide a broader perspective on luxury real estate, here’s a comparison of key features found in celebrity homes, including Jeffree Star’s mansion.

“I’m flying to #Wyoming right now and can’t wait to have a second home out here soon! One of the highlights of the mansion include the 10-car garage where Star housed his collection of pink supercars (including the Ferrari), and a 5,400 sq ft “beauty barn” for doing make-up and hair. The property also includes a spectacular lower lounge level with theatre, a two-storey commercial gym and spa and an underground wine cellar decked out with 300-year-old barn wood, extensive wrought iron and floor-to-ceiling limestone walls. Star is the founder and owner of Jeffree Star Cosmetics, who collaborated with fellow YouTuber, Shane Dawson, in 2019 on a Conspiracy Collection of makeup. According to the Daily Mail, the palette was expected to sell $17.5 million in in-store sales and an additional $17.5 million on Star’s website. Several websites suggest Star’s net worth is somewhere between $50 million to $200 million.

We’re moving towards spaces that not only exude opulence but also reflect the homeowner’s personality and values. He has transitioned from his extravagant Los Angeles lifestyle to a more pastoral one, including starting a yak meat business. “Being a makeup mogul, owner of shipping fulfillment centers, YouTuber, makeup artist for the last 20 years, dog mom… I’ve done a lot.

Keep in mind I’m a glutton for beautiful hot messes and much of my obsession is due to the fact that Star is an over-the-top sass queen with absolutely no filter who’s got more beef than Hormel chili. I literally can’t take it – his makeup is always insanely on point and the cosmetics line, folks, is straight #fiah. “I’m also so grateful I got to be in this house,” Star said when he announced he would sell the estate.

Jeffree made his intentions known about making the move in an August 5, 2020, tweet. It came after the COVID lockdown made him ready for a change from living full-time in the $14 million, 20,000-square-foot Hidden Hills mansion he purchased in 2019. Makeup guru Jeffree Star is becoming Wyoming’s best known ranch owner, ever since he purchased a sprawling 70-acre property outside the east-central city of Casper in December 2020. Since then, he has fallen in love with the remote and quiet life on the rolling prairie, while still running his successful businesses.

He also tweeted on August 24, 2020, that he had flown out members of the Jeffree Star Cosmetics team to celebrate the launch of his "Orgy" makeup collection at the new ranch property. The Jeffree Star Cosmetics founder, 34, previously lived in an all-pink house but majorly upgraded when he “outgrew” the Barbie-esque digs. His new luxurious home is described as French Normandy style and features high ceilings, lots of winding hallways and gold walls.

‘Rivers in the sky’ have drenched California, yet even more extreme rains are possible

The makeup artist gave an update on the renovations happening in his house in March following his split from Nathan Schwandt. Star began relentlessly promoting himself and his new line on YouTube and became hugely successful due to his spunky personality, expert makeup skills, and celebrity guests. As of today, he’s amassed a whopping 15 million followers on the platform and uses it to continue to grow his massively successful cosmetic empire. Star has had numerous entrepreneurial pursuits, and in 2014, he started his own e-commerce cosmetics line and then decided to start promoting it on YouTube. Star’s initial investment was his life savings so at the time it was an extremely risky endeavor.

"At the end of the day, you know, we are in a gated community," he continued. "If you're living here, please leave me alone. My dogs hate when people are driving by." Almost immediately after Star purchased his new home, his address and photos of the space were shared online. And according to the YouTuber, uninvited fans began visiting as a result.

Designed in the French Normandy architectural style, the Hidden Hills mansion was built in 2007. It’s not the only structure on the estate though, with two attached guest houses and a 5,400-square-foot barn are also included. After Star graduated, he moved to Los Angeles and began supporting himself with his makeup artistry and various modeling and music gigs. Before Jeffree Star was practically a household name, he was just a regular old kid growing up in Orange County, California. When Star was just six years old his father committed suicide, and as a result, Star was raised by his mother for the majority of his life. He started to develop an interest in makeup as a child and eventually was able to convince his mother to let him wear it in junior high.

The suite opens to an industrial, two-level gym with glass tile, a urinal, a sauna and a changing room with showers re-created from Thailand. In the video announcing the sale, Star said that he hardly ever used the gym. It also has a meditation room and a massage suite with a stained-glass window and a fireplace. It has a foyer with a recessed ceiling tray, imported statues, dual bathrooms and closets, a black-velvet living room and, through pocket doors, the actual bedroom. From there, a door covered in stainless-steel grapes leads to the wine cellar with a tasting area, as he revealed in the tour. The kitchen has two islands, Viking appliances and three wood-surface refrigerators.

At the same time that he professed his new love for Wyoming, Star maintained that he would continue to live part-time in LA. Toward the end of 2020, Star showed renovation efforts in his $14.6 million mansion, and in January he added a new custom pink Rolls Royce to his car collection in California. As far as overall space is concerned, this ranch’s 5,793 square feet of living space ensures that Star will never run out of room for decadent décor and lavish pink furnishings. Jay Lybik, national director of multifamily analytics at CoStar, a commercial real estate data provider, said LA4LA’s model makes “complete sense” in light of concerns about the multi-unit housing market. Prior to moving into the new home, real estate photos of Star’s house were shared online.

The venture is fronted by none other than Jeffree Star, the controversial beauty vlogger and makeup entrepreneur who sold his $16.7 million Los Angeles mega-mansion to decamp to the Wyoming countryside in 2021. Jeffree has an extensive pinball machine collection and added a few of them to the theater space. “Thankful for all the blessings God has brought into my life this year,” Jeffree wrote. After the two separated, they both left the home and listed it for sale; but before Jeffree came in to snap the property off the market, the massive estate sat vacant for years.

Jeffree Star has officially moved into his $14.6 million mansion — and he's inviting his fans to take a look inside. Star shared that his first-ever retail store will open on July 14 in a Facebook post. The Jeffree Star store will sell "makeup and meat," according to the announcement, including exclusive products only available in-store. Star offered fans a new collection earlier this year inspired by his new home state — and perhaps targeting more local fans. Star has also teased the launch of his very own retail storefront last fall, when he purchased the event venue Hall on Ash, K2 reported at the time. Star had been previously selling the meat out of his fulfillment center, which he called a "not glamorous" shopping experience.

Back in 1965, Norman Mailer in “An American Dream” devotes at least a chapter to the subject in a celebration and embrace of the scandalous. But young Helen, though she speaks with bravado and pretends nothing she does is a big deal, really wants to challenge us and force us to question our beliefs. The book begins as if Helen is making fun of us, putting us down for our prudish attention to hygiene.

Mavis Leno joins husband Jay at a premiere after dementia revelation: ‘I feel great’

These include self-mutilation, amnesia triggered by recreational drug abuse, people's inability to deal with suicide attempts, and incest. For Kiehl, sex provides relief from a sadness that threatens to overwhelm her. Several years earlier, on the eve of her wedding to a previous partner, three of her brothers were killed and her mother injured in a car crash. The accident and its fallout are described in devastating detail – the account is, apparently, largely autobiographical. With her jaunty dissection of the sex life and the private grooming habits of the novel's 18-year-old narrator, Helen Memel, Charlotte Roche has turned the previously unspeakable into the national conversation in Germany.

Early life

‘If she really knew how beautiful she was, she would hardly have met up with him, so it was best not to tell her.’Fiction by Lukas Maisel, translated by Ruth Martin. ‘From a dish washer to an author who writes about washing dishes.’Memoir by Ilija Matusko, translated by Jen Calleja.

Locarno Film Festival Review: Is 'Wetlands' the Most Disgusting Coming of Age Movie Of All Time? - IndieWire

Locarno Film Festival Review: Is 'Wetlands' the Most Disgusting Coming of Age Movie Of All Time?.

Posted: Thu, 15 Aug 2013 07:00:00 GMT [source]

Helen entertains herself by remembering varied sex acts, obsessing over bodily fluids and playing pranks on the hospital workers. I’m afraid I don’t think England is any better than America in that respect. In terms of body-culture, England is always quick to follow the latest trends in the States. And it always amuses me how Americans and English people will to this day continue to make jokes about German women having hairy armpits. These days, German women shave themselves too, you know. And don’t worry, I don’t think just because they read my book they will suddenly stop doing so.

All of this is supposed to be brave and disturbing, but “Wetlands” is simply and willfully aggressive. Helen’s a mess, and not a very interesting one. I started to suspect that I was writing a very arrogant book – something very ‘top-down’ rather than ‘bottom-up’. ‘Charlotte Roche tells Germany’s women how to appreciate their sexual organs’. I know that I have my own limits, my own taboos too, when it comes to talking about sex, and I realized that I could only really go full throttle if I voiced these ideas through a fictional character. This nut sees no connection between her delight in bacteria (she likes to rub her vulva all over public toilet seats, mopping up the stray pubic hairs and excretions of strangers) and the anal blister and concomitant infection that now require surgery of the bleakest kind.

What to Read

As with Chuck Palahniuk, there's a consistent - and somewhat formulaic - endeavour here to gross you out. Helen is keen to inform us, repeatedly, that every squeezable, drainable, detachable substance produced by the body (hers, her lovers', or yours) can be and should be eaten - except hair, which she shaves off weekly, and ear wax, for which she shows unexpected disdain. There's no mention of belly button fluff either - but blackheads, snot, puke, pus, scabs, tears, smegma, eyelid crumbs, vaginal discharges, menstrual blood and other gunk are all acceptable fodder, especially when dried to a crust under the fingernails. "I'm my own garbage disposal. Bodily secretion recycler," she tells us proudly. The passage in which she rips open her own wound to prolong her stay in hospital is even more challenging for the weak-stomached reader. I’m convinced that in contemporary society a lot of women have a very messed-up attitude to their own bodies.

Review: Bad but entertaining, ‘Miller’s Girl,’ starring Jenna Ortega, is pure unintentional camp

Charlotte Roche was born in High Wycombe and brought up in Germany. She grew up to become a cool young television presenter who is usually photographed peeping demurely from beneath a fringe, a German Amélie. Seconds later, though, Roche switches from psychotherapeutic solemnity to hilarity when I suggest that she probably didn't want her father to read Helen's fantasies about sleeping with her dad either. Roche has a daughter, Polly, born in 2002, whose father Eric Pfeil [de] was the producer and writer of Roche's program Fast Forward and Der Kindergeburtstag ist vorbei! ("The children's birthday-party is over"). Since 2007, Roche has been married to Martin Keß, co-founder of Brainpool, a media-company in Cologne.

She broods on her "well-trained pelvic muscles'" and her "very successful" experiences of anal sex. She is fascinated by masturbation, which she appears to believe she invented. "I think a lot of women still don't masturbate, simply because they don't know how to talk about it," Roche told an interviewer. She molests barbecue tongs and avocado pits. (Sometimes, I feel like the only woman in the world who uses the shower attachment for washing my hair.) While masturbating, Helen likes to hum Amazing Grace, which does go to illustrate the incredible diversity of human sexuality. "But I would say everybody is damaged," Roche responds.

Feuchtgebiete, which translates as Wetlands, or Moist Patches, is the debut novel from Charlotte Roche. As it opens, we find 18-year-old narrator Helen Memel in hospital, after an accident shaving her intimate parts. The remainder of the book plays out entirely on the proctology ward where, in between ruminating on her haemorrhoids and sexual proclivities, Helen asks her male nurse to photograph her wound, tries to seduce him, and hides under her bed to masturbate. She has an insatiable, childlike curiosity about the sight and smell and taste of bodies, especially her own. Hygiene, she reflects, "is not a major concern of mine".

Where Musil had a Man Without Qualities, Roche brings us a Woman without Pants. Roche left home in 1993, still aged 17, and formed the garage rock group The Dubinskis with three female friends. The band never released an album, nor recorded any material, nor notably performed anywhere. There followed a period where she undertook anything that would shock and offend people—self-mutilation to paint with blood, drug experiments, or shaving her head. After successfully auditioning for the German music channel VIVA, she worked there for several years as a video jockey and presenter, as well on the sister channel Viva Zwei, where she presented her show Fast Forward.

Although its title conjures up the poetic Fens (it is possible to see why the British publishers avoided the more accurate translation "Moist Areas"), Wetlands takes place entirely in a German hospital room. This room is occupied by Helen Memel, the novel's 18-year-old narrator, who has been admitted with a self-inflicted injury. In the course of shaving her less talkative end, she managed to cut her anus with a razor. The wound festered and now she needs an operation.

While she is stuck in bed, unable to leave until she has a bowel movement, Helen keeps herself occupied reminiscing about her exploits. Kiehl believes that in their preoccupation with receiving sexual pleasure, the older generation of feminists forgot that good sex is all about reciprocity. As a good wife and mother, she indulges her husband's desires, even accompanying him to brothels. The child of a broken marriage, she is determined that her own marriage will "last forever".

We’re obsessed with cleanliness, with getting rid of our natural excretions and our body hair. So I wanted to write about the ugly parts of the human body. In order to tell that story, I created a heroine that has a totally creative attitude towards her body – someone who has never even heard that women are supposedly smelly between their legs. Eventually she began shaving again, just "to get rid of the issue", and still does.

But unlike the river ships, there are several other dining options on the ocean ships. The other main venue is the World Café, which is a buffet style restaurant. Due to the pandemic though, the World Café is no longer self-service.

Crystal Cruises in Iceland (well, reborn in 2023!)

National Geographic partners with Lindblad Expeditions to operate 3 cruises around Iceland every summer. You’ll be on either the National Geographic Explorer, which holds 148 passengers, or the National Geographic Resolution, which holds 126 passengers. Many of those stops in North Iceland would take you hours of driving to see; no other cruise is going to get you to the stunning Látrabjarg bird cliffs.

We even saw the traditional structures that Icelanders used to dry fish during the winter. After the tour we stopped at a small restaurant for coffee, some of the best we had on the trip. We then boarded our bus and journeyed  through that amazing tunnel back to the ship.

Explore Akureyri and see volcanic moonscapes.

Despite Iceland lifting all COVID restrictions, Viking guests needed to wear masks on shore excursions as well. Access to the thermal suite is included in the cruise fare with Viking. In pre-COVID times, individuals could come and go as they pleased in the thermal suite. We were about to head to dinner when the ship signaled it was time for sail away. So, we grabbed our devices to capture our sail out of the harbor from our balcony. This meant we were about 25 minutes late for our “reservation”.

However, many residents were displaced from their homes, some permanently. There was a lot of property destruction and it is all still quite visible. Still, the folks that we talked to seem to be resilient and eager to get their lives back to normal. Our first stop was the ‘blue church’ with a colorful walkway that reminded us of a mini version of the colorful Skolavordustigur Street in Reykjavik. Strolling up the street we passed colorful neighborhood houses and a small restaurant with outdoor seating. It was a little early in the day for a beer, so we continued exploring.

Day 6: Djúpivogur, Iceland

A woman dressed in traditional Icelandic clothing sang a number of folk songs. The acapella performance, enhanced by the special acoustics, was truly amazing. – Akureyri – Set at the end of the spectacular fjord, Eyjafjordur, sailing in to the beautiful city of Akureyri was another breathtaking visual experience. As Iceland’s second largest city, Akureyri is known as ‘The Capital of the North’. For the day’s excursion, we selected ‘Northern Iceland’s Natural Treasures’. This is another all-day, 7-hour excursion that takes in 4 more must-see spots.

Upon leaving Dynjandi Falls, we took the other branch of the tunnel to reach Suðureyri. Suðureyri is a remote fishing village with a population of only about 300 people, and it was the hometown of our guide. During the tour, his cat even found him and wandered amongst everyone looking for some scratches. We toured the small village, including the fishing docks where we learned how fish was processed and sold.

So, we turned around and started the 1.5+ hour drive back to the ship. We even made one quick sightseeing pitstop for a breath of fresh air on the way back. While there were plenty of empty tables, we were sat right next to two already occupied tables of two. Unlike our previous trips, there was no social distancing in the restaurants. Subsequently, the Captain later announced that the local authorities were not going to let us ashore today but that the rest of the cruise should go according to plan. Viking Sky was calling in Seydisfjordur today, a remote small fishing village of around 700 people.

Discover Iceland’s stark scenery, with active volcanoes, geysers, glaciers, mountains and waterfalls. Iceland offers the best whale watching in Europe at this time of year, from humpbacks to belugas. The day was too gorgeous to stay inside, so we made our way to the Aquavit Terrace. We had lunch along with a bottle of champagne, as we soaked up the Iceland sun and scenery. We learned that in December of 2020, Seydisfjordur experienced a devastating mudslide that swept down the mountain after record rainfall saturated the mountainsides.

We hope you found our review of Iceland’s Natural Beauties helpful and informative. And we hope you join us in the future as we explore some other Viking cruises. Haukadalur is home to bubbling mud pots, as well as many geysers, a couple of which erupt every few minutes. If you have seen the hydrothermal areas of Yellowstone, then you will find that this landscape is similar. During your visit, you will be able to hike as far as you like in the area and see the many different geothermal features.

Itinerary and shore excursions are subject to change and may vary by departure. Reykjavík is the world's northernmost capital city yet captures the distinctive feel of a fishing village. The Kentucky-sized island is Europe's westernmost nation and one of the wildest places on earth. Vikings landed on this pristine land during the 9th century; their arrival is well chronicled in the medieval Sagas preserved at the Culture House. Isafjördur and Bolungarvik Village – After lunch on board the ship, we joined the included excursion that traveled down the Westfjords peninsula to Bolungarvik Village.

"Usually there are 700 people on the island at this time of year, so receiving 4,000 people in the middle of the night wasn't easy," she said. Elizabeth Nanni, of Isola del Giglio Tourist Information, said those who arrived on the island were survivors in a state of shock, ''desperate people looking for each other'' and people suffering from hypothermia after jumping into the sea. "We were on the same level as the water so some people started to swim because they weren't able to get on the lifeboats," said Mr Costa. According to Codacons, Genoa Judge Paolo Gibelli ruled that Costa Crociere was liable not only for the shipwreck itself but for the traumatic experience that Carusotti suffered. The court ordered Costa to pay Carusotti 77,000 euros (about $87,300) in damages plus 15,692 euros (about $17,800) in legal fees. Crews have finally completed the salvage and are towing the Costa Concorida to a scrapyard in Northern Italy.

Enormous MSC Cruise Ship Crashes Into Crowded Venice Port, Injuring at Least Five

The former captain was convicted in 2015 of multiple counts of manslaughter, causing a maritime accident and abandoning ship before all passengers and crew had been evacuated. NBC News correspondent Kelly Cobiella caught up with a group of survivors on TODAY Wednesday, a decade after they escaped a maritime disaster that claimed the lives of 32 people. The Italian cruise ship ran aground off the tiny Italian island of Giglio after striking an underground rock and capsizing. Almost immediately questions were raised concerning the conduct of Schettino and other crew officers.

Key dates in Costa Concordia shipwreck, trial and cleanup

For Concordia survivor Georgia Ananias, the COVID-19 infections are just the latest evidence that passenger safety still isn’t a top priority for the cruise ship industry. Passengers aboard the Concordia were largely left on their own to find life jackets and a functioning lifeboat after the captain steered the ship close too shore in a stunt. He then delayed an evacuation order until it was too late, with lifeboats unable to lower because the ship was listing too heavily.

"People disappeared in the dark, then reappeared again. They cried out 'mum where are you?'. I remember to this day the names people shouted out, looking for each other," said Magnotta, 51. Evacuation began over an hour after the collision, by which point the lifeboats on one side were unusable. The boat would stay off the coast of the island for another ten years until being removed in 2014. "I think it’s the panic, the feeling of panic, is what’s carried through over 10 years," Ian Donoff, who was on the cruise with his wife Janice for their honeymoon, told Cobiella.

The calamity caused changes in the cruise industry like carrying more lifejackets and holding emergency drills before leaving port. The Genoa port authorities confirmed to AFP that the Italian positive cases were taken home by the civil protection services, while foreign passengers who tested positive were transferred to medical facilities. Rose Metcalf, a dancer who had been performing on the ship, was one of the last people to be winched to safety by a helicopter after clinging to the stricken vessel.

Prosecutors say Schettino intentionally brought the ship too close to shore in a stunt and then abandoned the listing liner while passengers and crew were still aboard. The Costa cruise line said in Schettino's trial the company had paid about 84 million euros (approximately $95.3 million) in a compensation package to passengers, crew and relatives of those who died on the ship, which some people denied in order to pursue lawsuits instead. Costa Concordia, the Italian cruise ship that sank off the coast of Italy in January 2012, is finally leaving her resting place.

The 19-hour process involved specially built underwater platforms, cranes, and some 500 people. In July 2014 the Concordia—outfitted with a number of steel containers serving as flotation devices—was towed to Genoa, Italy, where it was dismantled for scrap. It took a massive operation and $1.5 billion to refloat the Costa Concordia cruise ship. The giant craft will now be towed 200 miles across open ocean before being scrapped. Off the coast of Italy, Costa Concordia is one step closer to being towed to its final resting place. The 10th anniversary is also recalling how the residents of Giglio took in the 4,200 surviving passengers and crew, giving them food, blankets and a place to rest until day broke and they were ferried to the mainland.

The total cost of the disaster, including victims' compensation, refloating, towing and scrapping costs, is estimated at $2 billion, more than three times the ship's $612 million construction cost. Costa Cruises offered compensation to passengers (to a limit of €11,000 per person) to pay for all damages, including the value of the cruise; one third of the survivors took the offer. Operated by MSC, the Opera cruise ship was built to hold more than 2,675 passengers and, in this instance, it was carrying travelers back to Venice after visiting Kotor, Montenegro as well as the Greek cities of Mykonos, Santorini, and Corfu. Two nearby tugboats worked to guide the ship away from the dock after the captain immediately reported the engine failure but failed. During this time, work also began to remove the vessel in what was the largest maritime salvage operation in history. It was not until September 2013 that the 114,000-ton Concordia was finally righted.

Costa Concordia disaster, the capsizing of an Italian cruise ship on January 13, 2012, after it struck rocks off the coast of Giglio Island in the Tyrrhenian Sea. Several of the ship’s crew, notably Capt. Francesco Schettino, were charged with various crimes. Giglio’s vice mayor at the time, Mario Pellegrini, had climbed on board the listing ship that night to help coordinate the rescue, and found sheer chaos in the absence of orders from the captain or crew. He recalled he finally climbed down after the last passengers and crew had been evacuated, at around 6 a.m.
