The 79-year-old mother-of-one who Anchors Fashion Police on Celebrity Channel E! is catching heat for making nasty fat jokes about respected British singer Adele during a guest appearance on Tuesday night’s Late Show with David Letterman.
Referring to Adele’s song “Rolling in the Deep”, Rivers said the new mom should change the lyrics to her hit song to “rolling in the deep fried chicken.”
When asked by Letterman if she met the Grammy winning singer at the Oscars, Rivers quipped, “We got along.” She recalled Adele worrying about singing her hit “Skyfall” at the Oscars. “My throat, my throat; I don’t know if I can swallow,” Rivers quoted Adele. Rivers then spread her hands wide apart and said, “Oh, yeah, you can swallow.”
Lol.

WTF!!!! Mario Balotelli fined for reacting to racists
Unbelieveable. Soccer is almost now synonymous with racism and in Italy, it is taking a whole new level.
From TheSunUK
Here is a picture of Inter Milan Fans Waving Plastic Bananas In Racist Gesture Towards AC Milan Striker Mario Balotelli.
Pathetic!
From TheSunUK
ITALIAN football today hit a shocking low after Mario Balotelli was fined — following HIS race-hate hell. The ex-Manchester City star was the victim of horrific racial abuse during Sunday’s Milan derby. Yet Serie A chiefs have hit BALOTELLI in the pocket for confronting Inter racists after the final whistle. AC Milan’s Italy international was fined £8,600 for a “vulgar gesture” following the San Siro clash, which ended 1-1. Inter were also fined £43,200 for their fans’ vile abuse, while AC Milan copped an £8,600 penalty for unveiling “insulting banners”. Last month, Inter were forced to pay £13,200 when their ultras aimed racist chants at Balotelli during a match against Chievo. Italian football had vowed to clean up its act earlier this season after former Tottenham and Portsmouth star Kevin-Prince Boateng walked off during an AC Milan friendly due to racist abuse.[TheSun]

Internet Explorer 10 For Windows 7 Available To Download Globally
Microsoft today announced Internet Explorer 10 is now available worldwide in 95 languages for download. According to Rob Mauceri, Group Program Manager, Internet Explorer, with this final release, Internet Explorer 10 brings the same leading standards support, with improved performance, security, privacy, reliability that consumers enjoy on Windows 8, to Windows 7 customers.
The new Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 offers:
20% faster for real world Web sites
The new Internet Explorer for Windows 7 delivers best performance for real world Web sites on your Windows device. As with Windows 8, Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7 improves performance across the board with faster page loading, faster interactivity, and faster JavaScript performance, while reducing CPU usage and improving battery life on mobile PCs. In Microsoft's performance lab measurement, Internet Explorer loads real world pages up to 20% faster in top sites for news, social, search, ecommerce, and more.
60% increase in supported modern Web standards
For developers, Internet Explorer 10 brings increased support for modern Web standards powered by hardware acceleration to enable a new class of compelling applications and fast and fluid Web browsing. IE10 adds support for over 30 new modern Web standards beyond IE9, for a 60% increase. These new supported standards in IE10 include many of the latest HTML5, CSS3, DOM, Web Performance, and Web Application specifications across important aspects of Web development including:
Create rich visual effects with CSS Text Shadow, CSS 3D Transforms, CSS3 Transitions and Animations, CSS3 Gradient, and SVG Filter Effects
More sophisticated and responsive page layouts with CSS3 for publication quality page layouts and responsive application UI (CSS3 grid, flexbox, multi-column, positioned floats, regions, and hyphenation), HTML5 Forms, input controls, and validation
Enhanced Web programming model for better offline applications through local storage with IndexedDB and the HTML5 Application Cache; Web Sockets, HTML5 History, Async scripts, HTML5 File APIs, HTML5 Drag-drop, HTML5 Sandboxing, Web workers, ES5 Strict mode support.
Beautiful and interactive Web applications with support for several new technologies like CSS3 Positioned Floats, HTML5 Drag-drop, File Reader API, Media Query Listeners, Pointer Events, and HTML5 Forms.
Improved Web application security with the same markup and support for HTML5 Sandbox for iframe isolation.
However, users of Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7 will not receive the same full screen view as their Windows 8 toting counterparts, with this version of Microsoft’s web browser looking rather like the previous version from the outside.

Galaxy S4 to launch March 14 - Samsung
Samsung Electronics has announced it will unveil its next flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S4, on March 14. Samsung is already sending out invitations this morning to a "Samsung Unpacked" event in New York for next month (picture above).
After the blockbuster success of the Galaxy S3, anticipation has surged for the next Galaxy S franchise. The Galaxy S3 last year emerged as a true rival to Apple's iPhone, even seeing accelerating sales after the iPhone 5 launched late last year.
Samsung's tease will likely overshadow many of the other announcements at Mobile World Congress, which like the Consumer Electronics Show has seen its relevance diminish as the major players opt for their own announcements. HTC last week debuted its flagship One smartphone at its own global event in London and New York.
Some specs that are rumored to be included in the new Galaxy S4 include an eight-core Exynos processor, a separate eight-core graphics processing unit, a 4.99-inch SuperAmoled display, 2GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel rear camera with 1080p video capability, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and the latest version of Android, known as 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.

Ja Rule set to leave prison
[AP] Multi-Platinum-selling rapper Ja Rule was set to leave an upstate prison on Thursday after serving most of his two-year sentence for illegal gun possession but head straight into federal custody in a tax case.
Ja Rule has been in protective custody at the Mid-State Correctional Facility because of his celebrity and has some time remaining on a 28-month sentence for tax evasion, correction officials said. His sentences were expected to run concurrently.
The Rapper may have less than six months left and may be eligible for a halfway house, defense attorney Stacey Richman said. An order to pay $1.1 million in back taxes is one of the main reasons he wants to get back to work, she said.
"Many people are looking forward to experiencing his talent again" Richman said.
Ja Rule scored a Grammy Award nomination in 2002 for the best rap album with "Pain is Love." He also has appeared in movies, including "The Fast and the Furious" in 2001 and "Scary Movie 3" in 2003.
Ja Rule, who went to the prison in Marcy in June 2011, is getting out at his earliest release date, state correction spokeswoman Linda Foglia said. He had two misbehavior reports for unauthorized phone calls in February 2012 and had work assignments on lawn and grounds crews and participated in education programs, she said.
In the gun case, New York City police said they found a loaded .40-caliber semiautomatic gun in a rear door of Ja Rule's $250,000 luxury car after it was stopped for speeding, and he pleaded guilty in 2010.
He admitted in March 2011 in federal court that he failed to pay taxes on more than $3 million he earned between 2004 and 2006 while he lived in Saddle River, N.J.
"I in no way attempted to deceive the government or do anything illegal," he told the judge. "I was a young man who made a lot of money — I'm getting a little choked up — I didn't know how to deal with these finances, and I didn't have people to guide me, so I made mistakes." Richman says Ja Rule, 36-year-old, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins, is looking forward to his daughter's graduation. "He's a devoted father," she said.

Update: Nigeria Super Eagles Coach Stephen Keshi withdraws resignation
Update 12/02/2013: Steven Keshi Withdraws Resignation. His statement below:
My attention has been drawn to reports in the media that I have resigned my appointment as the Head Coach of Super Eagles of Nigeria.
While I have had cause to express my displeasure over some issues that happened in the course of our participation in the AFCON 2013, which my team won by the grace of God, especially concerning my relationship with the Nigerian Football Federation, I have since had opportunity to discuss the various issues with all concerned. I am therefore pleased to say that I have reconsidered my position and have decided to continue with my job.
I want to thank the Honourable Minister of Sports, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, for his swift and kind intervention.
Signed

The African Nations Cup winning coach resigned yesterday.
Barely relishing his African Nations Cup victory, Super Eagles of Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has submitted
his resignation to the Nigerian
Football Federation.
Keshi is said to have fallen out with the governing body 24
hours after picking up the trophy.
Stephen Keshi resigned as boss of the Super Eagles a day
after winning the 2013 African Cup of Nations.
Just before the final, Keshi told Goal.com that he would "pack his bags and leave" if he felt he was not wanted, but following the 1-0 win against Burkina Faso in the Afcon final, the coach was highly
praised from all quarters.
However, after a dramatic falling out with the Nigerian Football Federation, Keshi has tendered his resignation.
We expect the political class - most especially the President to intervene in the matter.

Beyoncé Covers Vogue Magazine
Beyonce is currently running the world of Music. Just after her GQ magazine cover and a superlative Superbowl performance, Queen B graces the cover of Vogue Magazine March issue.On the cover story, Beyonce talk family life, motherhood and her upcoming HBO documentary.
A couple of weeks after the Super Bowl madness, Beyoncé will admit the public—or at least the HBO-buying members of the public—into her world in a manner she’s never done before, through Life Is But a Dream. “My story has never been told—no one really knows who I am,” she says, a comment that may distress the authors of the nine unauthorized Beyoncé biographies I found for sale on Amazon.
