The drama tells the true story of this unholy alliance, which spiraled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement, consolidate power, and become one of the most ruthless and powerful gangsters in Boston history.

Kylie Jenner took a break from the war of subliminal shots she’s locked in with Black Chyna to show her support for new mom Bruce Jenner’s transition into womanhood.
Kylie posted the below vintage pic of Bruce from a 1980 disco movie set…where he set his yams out in a pair of cut offs alongside The Village People for the flick “Can’t Stop the Music.” Somehow, Kylie thought this was the best picture to post to throw her support and love behind her father while gearing up for his hotly anticipated sitdown with Diane Sawyer.
Of ALL the pics of her father she could have chosen…she goes for the one time he appeared in pumpum shorts and a crop top? Either the baby Jenner is trolling as hard as her little thumbs will let her or she’s 1000% on board with her Daddy’s new attitude.
Only a few hours left until Bruce spills the beans on becoming a lady. Will you be watching???
Remember a few months back when Karrueche was dipping on and off set for a secret movie project? The aspiring actress has been hinting towards an upcoming acting role, even posting pics with her costars while keeping hush on what it is she was actually filming. Well now, we finally know what her potential break-out role will be.
The Asylum, the production team responsible for some of the SyFy Network’s bigger hits, including the Sharknado franchise and MegaShark, has given Karrueche a starring role in the sequel to their 2012 flick 2-Headed Shark Attack. This one, of course, is aptly titled 3-Headed Shark Attack.
We’re unclear on why this shark keeps growing heads, but here is the poster that wiggled its way onto the internet earlier today:
“More heads, more deads,” though. Of course these films are silly and over-the-top…but that’s the point, right? This could be a good look for Karrueche spring-boarding her movie career. She says she’s trying to be the next Halle Berry after all…
What do you think??? Could she be on her way?

Bruce Jenner has finally broken his silence on his transition. Bruce spoke openly and honestly on his transition and the discomfort he’s felt his entire life leading up to his decision to take the plunge into womanhood:
“For all intents and purposes, I am a woman. People look at me differently. They see you as this ‘macho male.’ But in my heart and my soul and everything I do in life, it is part of me. That female side is part of who I am.
I was not genetically born that way. As of now, I have all the male parts and all that kind of stuff. In a lot of ways we’re different, okay? But we still identify as female. And that’s very hard for Bruce Jenner to say. Because why? I don’t want to disappoint people.”

At his lowest point in the 1980s, Bruce Jenner wanted to flee to Europe for gender reassignment surgery and return to America as his children’s Aunt Heather. That was around the time his young sons asked their mother why their father had breasts.
As Diane Sawyer’s explosive tell-all with Bruce came to an end last night, his second wife published a blog detailing their love affair, idyllic marriage and the gender dysphoria revelations that led to their divorce after two sons and a seemingly picture perfect Malibu life.
Linda Thompson, now 64, met Bruce at the Playboy mansion when he was separated from his first wife, Chrystie Crownover, the mother of his two eldest children. They fell in love and got married in Hawaii when she was already pregnant with their son Brandon.
A few years later they welcomed a second son together, Brody.
“Mommy, why daddy got dem tidday meats?” -Brody and Brandon Jenner
But when Brody was 18 months old and Brandon was three, Bruce revealed to Linda the secret that he finally told the world Friday night. She was, she insists, blindsided.
With a ‘somber look’ Bruce told Linda – who had braced herself for the revelation of perhaps an affair – that he identified as a woman.
‘What do you mean you identify as a woman?’ she recalled asking. ‘What does that mean?
And just as he told Diane Sawyer, Bruce told his wife of four plus years that as long as he could remember, he felt wrong with the reflection staring back at him in the mirror.
According to Linda, her handsome husband told her, ‘I have lived in the wrong skin, the wrong body, my whole life. It is a living hell for me, and I really feel that I would like to move forward with the process of becoming a woman, the woman I have always been inside.’
She insists she never saw it coming and there were no signs.
Considering how (in)famous the Kardashians and the Jenners have become, we’re actually pretty surprised that Linda didn’t dropped this bomb a long time ago. Pretty sure Kris would have appreciated the heads up.
Bruce Jenner’s Interview with Diane Sawyer has finally aired, and the Olympian has spoken from his own mouth on the demons that have plagued him his entire life.
While the general public weighs in with support and criticism of Bruce’s decision to finally take the necessary steps to fully live as a woman, the opinions Bruce likely cares MOST about are being aired out on social media as well.
Bruce’s ex-wives and his 10 children are all pouring in their support for their “Hero” over his brave decision to stand before the world and tell the truth about who he is. Hit the flip to see what they had to say…

It’s not just women who get penalized for being fine in the workplace. Apparently fellas have it even worse, with interviewers often refusing to offer them job positions despite their qualifications, fearful that their fineness will overshadow them in the long run. Via MailOnline:
You might think that good-looking men have every advantage in life. But a new study suggests being handsome may not always work in a man’s favour – at least when it comes to his career.
The research claims that attractive men are less likely to be given a job in a competitive workplace because they intimidate bosses.
‘It’s not always an advantage to be pretty,’ says Marko Pitesa, an assistant professor at the University of Maryland. ‘It can backfire if you are perceived as a threat.’ Interestingly, in Pitesa’s study, it was male attractiveness in particular, rather than female beauty, that made the most difference.
If the interviewer expected to work with the candidate as part of a team, then he preferred good-looking men. However, if the interviewer saw the candidate as a potential competitor, the interviewer discriminated in favour of unattractive men.
The results suggest that interviewers were not blinded by beauty, and instead calculated which candidate would further their own career.
‘The way we explain it here, pretty men just seem more competent, so it is actually subjectively rational to discriminate for or against them.’
On a deeper level, she adds, the behaviour remains irrational, since there’s no evidence that a real link exists between looks and competence.
Well, that’s not fair. Ladies, next time you get approached a fine brother with no job, give him a break! It’s probably not his fault…

A Florida sheriff’s deputy has been fired after an investigation showed that he ignored a 911 call from a woman having a heart attack so that he could finish his pizza lunch, according to WZVN.
Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott fired Yvan Fernandez following an Internal Affairs report that showed that the deputy acknowledged the emergency call from dispatch before returning to his pizza, even though he was not on an official meal break at the time.
According to friends of the victim, Gwendolyn Minnis, 48, she had recently been released from the hospital after having a heart attack.
Police believe she called 911 to report another heart attack on March 13, with dispatch sending out a call for an officer to respond after the line went dead.
The report states that Fernandez was having lunch with three other deputies at Raider’s Pizza and Wings when he first took the call, responding to a second call from dispatch 8 minutes later, telling the dispatcher “copy.”
Fernandez then reportedly went back to eating his lunch before passing off the call to another deputy 30 minutes later.
Deputies arrived at the home where Minnis was staying, 53 minutes after the initial call, to find the woman lying in her walkway unconscious with the phone next to her. She later died.
This azzhole deserves something a lot more painful than being fired.

Our prayers are with the people in Nepal, Tibet, Bangladesh, India and surrounding South Asian regions devastated by one of the worst earthquakes to ever strike the area.
According to NY Post reports:
A powerful earthquake struck Nepal Saturday, killing at least 1,180 people across a swath of four countries as the violently shaking earth collapsed houses, leveled centuries-old temples and triggered avalanches on Mt. Everest.
It was the worst tremor to hit the poor South Asian nation in over 80 years.
At least 1,130 people were confirmed dead across Nepal, according to the police. Another 34 were killed in India, 12 in Tibet and two in Bangladesh.Two Chinese citizens died in the Nepal-China border. The death toll is almost certain to rise, said deputy Inspector General of Police Komal Singh Bam.
It was a few minutes before noon when the quake, with a preliminary magnitude of 7.8, began to rumble across the densely populated Kathmandu Valley, rippling through the capital Kathmandu and spreading in all directions — north toward the Himalayas and Tibet, south to the Indo-Gangetic plains, east toward the Brahmaputra delta of Bangladesh and west toward the historical city of Lahore in Pakistan.
A magnitude-6.6 aftershock hit about an hour later, and at least 16 aftershocks continued to jolt the region for hours. Residents ran out of homes and buildings in panic. Walls tumbled, trees swayed, power lines came crashing down and large cracks opened up on streets and walls.
“Our village has been almost wiped out. Most of the houses are either buried by landslide or damaged by shaking,” said Vim Tamang, a resident of Manglung village near the epicenter. He said half of the village folks are either missing or dead. “All the villagers have gathered in the open area. We don’t know what to do. We are feeling helpless,” he said when contacted by telephone.
So sad… Natural disasters always leave us feeling so helpless. If you’re able to donate any funds or assistance to disaster relief, please help these people out. Our prayers are definitely with Nepal right now.

Columbia University dining hall workers are circulating a petition against “arbitrary and racist policies” that allegedly forbid them from speaking Spanish in the presence of students or eating in the Butler lounge during their lunch breaks. The workers in question staff Blue Java Coffee bar in Butler Library, the Columbia Spectator reports.
Via Gothamist:
Unsurprisingly, these rules have not yet been made public by Dining Services.
The petition, which began circulating yesterday and was written in collaboration with Student Worker Solidarity, states that Vicki Dunn, the executive director of Columbia Dining, first announced the rules during an orientation session in August 2013. According to the petition, at the time workers were relegated to eating their meals inside a closet.
A timeline in the petition suggests the closet issue escalated considerably this spring. According to the petition, the closet rule has been “temporarily reversed.” Here’s an excerpt of the timeline:
Early April, 2015 : [Columbia manager] Hazel Clark tells Butler lounge workers that a student complained about trash being kept outside in the lounge area. Responding to this complaint, Clark ordered that workers move the trash to the closet, where they were also expected to sit when eating.
April 13, 2015: SWS members send email to Vicki Dunn expressing concern about workers eating in the closet, where the trash was kept and schedule meeting to discuss the issue. In response to the email, Dunn emails Butler Lounge management rescinding the rule that workers should eat in the closet.
April 15: SWS members meet with Columbia dining administration, who claim not to know about the closet rule. They do not confirm or deny the prohibition on speaking Spanish, but cite student complaints in justifying rules against workers talking amongst themselves
An anonymous dining worker quoted in the petition reasons, “If it wasn’t for us, they wouldn’t be raking in thousands of dollars a day from Columbia Dining Services. They need to treat us differently.”

Kim Kardashian’s ex-husband, Kris Humphries, got an unpleasant reminder of what life was like caught up in the reality family’s drama when he made the bad decision to tweet about Bruce Jenner’s ABC interview with Diane Sawyer.
Via RadarOnline:
“Man, I’m glad I got out when I did. #Gottadoyou,” he wrote his almost 900,000 followers.
Humphries message was instantly met with mostly hostile responses from fans who lambasted him for his insensitivity.
In a major example of damage control, he eventually tried to explain that he is, in fact, fully team Bruce.
“I have and always will support Bruce hence #Gottadoyou,” he explained. “Now recognize I was too vague and sincerely apologize for the way this came across.”
And just in case his apology wasn’t enough, Humphries tweeted: #fullysupportbruce in a follow-up tweet.
But it seems Humphries’ explanation got him into even more trouble.
“Mmmmm…not buying it,” commented one follower.
“There was no reason 2 comment in the 1st place..u didnt think u’d get backlash from this?” asked another. “Come on, aren’t u smarter than that?”
While still another of his twitter followers slammed Humphries, asking: “You’re glad you got out when you did??? YOU GOT LEFT BRO. THEY LEFT YOU.”
“Think before you tweet… Makes everyone understand why Kim left you for Kanye,” sniped someone else in response.
Do you think Bruce should accept Kris’ apology or nah?
