Hey ladies, Tiger Woods is back on the market… not sure if he ever left, but…
LindseyVonn and Tiger Woods call it quits | Fox News
Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn and golfing beau Tiger Woods have played their final round.
They announced their breakup Sunday, citing the “hectic lives” that keep them apart for long stretches of time.
“After nearly three years together, Tiger and I have mutually decided to end our relationship,” Vonn told fans on Facebook.
“I will always cherish the memories that we’ve created together. Unfortunately, we both lead incredibly hectic lives that force us to spend a majority of our time apart.”
She put the best spin possible on the breakup: “I will always admire and respect Tiger. He and his beautiful family will always hold a special place in my heart.”
Woods posted a very similar message on his Web site.
“Lindsey and I have mutually decided to stop dating,” he wrote.
“I have great admiration, respect and love for Lindsey and I’ll always cherish our time together. She has been amazing with Sam and Charlie and my entire family.”
What a great dude! 19 year old Austin Dennison’s great-grandmother never got to go to a prom when she was a teen…so he invited her, 89 years old, to be his date to the school’s prom.
The DJ even played a Frank Sinatra song she loved for her. Awesome story!

A couple who held hands at breakfast every morning even after 70 years of marriage have died 15 hours apart.
Helen Felumlee, of Nashport, died at 92 on April 12. Her husband, 91-year-old Kenneth Felumlee, died the next morning.
The couple’s eight children say the two had been inseparable since meeting as teenagers, once sharing the bottom of a bunk bed on a ferry rather than sleeping one night apart, the Zanesville Times Recorder reported (http://ohne.ws/1in7erG).
They remained deeply in love until the very end, even eating breakfast together while holding hands, said their daughter, Linda Cody.

“We knew when one went, the other was going to go,” she said.
According to Cody, about 12 hours after Helen died, Kenneth looked at his children and said, “Mom’s dead.”
He quickly began to fade and was surrounded by 24 of his closest family members and friends when he died the next morning.
“He was ready,” Cody said. “He just didn’t want to leave her here by herself.”
The pair had known each other for several years when they eloped in Newport, Ky., across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, on Feb. 20, 1944. At two days shy of his 21st birthday, Kenneth was too young to marry in Ohio.
“He couldn’t wait,” son Jim Felumlee said.
Kenneth worked as a railroad car inspector and mechanic before becoming a mail carrier for the Nashport Post Office. He was active in his Nashport-Irville United Methodist Church as a Sunday school teacher.
Helen stayed at home, not only cooking and cleaning for her own family but also for other families in need in the area. She taught Sunday school, too, but was known more for her greeting card ministry, sending cards for birthdays, sympathy and the holidays to everyone in her community, each with a personal note inside.
“She kept Hallmark in business,” daughter-in-law Debbie Felumlee joked.
When Kenneth retired in 1983 and the children began to leave the house, the Felumlees began to explore their love of travel, visiting almost all 50 states by bus.
“He didn’t want to fly anywhere because you couldn’t see anything as you were going,” Jim Felumlee said.
Although both experienced declining health in recent years, Cody said, each tried to stay strong for the other.
A Kenyan woman (pictured) who claims a man raped and infected her with HIV at a party recently admitted to sleeping with more than 300 men in revenge, the Kenyan Daily Postreports.
The woman, who remains anonymous, shared her story through her Facebook page “Kenyan Scandals.”
“I’m 19 and a 2nd year here at Kabarak Uni,” she said. “I joined this college a virgin; though I’ve had boyfriends before, my parents are strict so having sex was never on my mind.”
But that apparently changed late last year during a visit to a club.
“Sep 22nd 2013 is a day I’ll never forget. We went clubbing in town and got drunk with some senior students then went back [to] hostels for party round 2,” she continued. However, she woke up naked the next day to a man named Javan.
Upon asking if they’d used a condom for intercourse, Javan said yes. However, the woman soon noticed sperm near her vaginal area while taking a bath.
I wanted to commit suicide, she shared. I feared getting pregnant [and] HIV, took contras [and] hoped I was HIV-free. Unfortunately, that was not the case: In November I tested HIV [positive]. I felt like cutting off my neck.
She confronted Javan who claimed he was HIV-negative.
I was so depressed and took alcohol to die, I even bought poison, the pain was just unbearable; how was I [going to] face the world? I let my parents down, I gave up on the world and just wanted to end my life. My future had been ruined, somehow someone had to pay.
She reportedly began exacting revenge by sleeping with as many men as possible. To date, she claims, she has slept with 324 men.
Not a day passes without me having sex, mostly 4 people per day,” she stated. “Nothing will stop me from accomplishing my mission by continuing to sleep around, you never know but maybe you have slept with me or your husband, boyfriend, brother, father or any has slept with me.
The woman’s eventual plan is to infect 2,000 men with the virus before year’s end, according to XNaija.
One commenter on the Kenyan Daily Post says he has slept with the woman:
OMG! I know this lady! the commenter typed. I’ve done it with her more than thrice since Jan this year! Lady, you didn’t have to do this to me. Revenging on the wrong people is unfair. I’m confused.
When the retirement community in which Evelyn lives got rid of the bus that took its members to the grocery store, her friend Joyce was dismayed and afraid that she would be moved. She didn’t want to go anywhere else and she didn’t have to, because Evelyn stepped up and obtained a license, making sure that Joyce could go to the store (and anywhere else she needed to go).
Evelyn’s quiet confidence and fortitude are admirable, and she points out that while she doesn’t have much money, she still wants to help others in any way she can.
While some women can enjoy multiple orgasms a day, others can struggle to hit the spot.
Now a machine that claims to deliver an orgasm at the push of a button has been patented in the U.S., but in order to tap into such convenient pleasure, there is some pain.
The machine is designed to be a medical implant and includes an implant a little smaller than a packet of cigarettes, requiring an operation. It uses electrodes to trigger an orgasm.
Its creator hopes the box of tricks could be used to treat women with orgasmic dysfunction.
Jim Pfaus, who studies the neurobiology of sexual behaviour at Concordia University in Montreal told New Scientist: ‘Some women confuse what’s called sympathetic arousal, like increased heart rate, clammy hands, nerves and so on, with fear. That makes them want to get out of the situation.’
While Psychotherapy is a common treatment, the implant could ‘solve’ the condition using a more manual approach.
A patient would remain conscious during an operation to fit the implant, where a surgeon will pinpoint the correct nerves to which to fit the electrodes in a patient’s spinal cord.
They would connect to a signal generator – just smaller than a packet of cigarettes – that could be implanted under the skin of a patient’s buttocks.
The idea is that the implant could be triggered by a hand-held remote control, delivering orgasms at the push of a button – and it could even be programmed to deliver a number of orgasms per week or per day.
Robin Thicke can cry all he wants on stage about his love for Paula Patton … but it’s not going to change her mind about leaving him … sources tell TMZ. For that … he has to do something else.
Sources connected with the couple tell us … Paula is unimpressed with Robin telling both TMZ and thousands of concertgoers he’s trying to win her back.
Here’s the good news for Robin. Although she TOLD him she wanted a divorce, she hasn’t hired a divorce lawyer yet and she’s open to reconciliation.
BUT … before she takes him back, Robin has to prove his loyalty to her … by his actions. She’s keeping tabs on him at his concerts, watching who he hangs with, which parties he attends — especially the after parties — and what photos surface.
We’re told Paula knows photogs have their cameras trained on Robin, and she views the paparazzi are her private detectives.
“My dear girl, the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.
If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’t interrupt to say: “You said the same thing a minute ago”… Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep.
When I don’t want to take a bath, don’t be mad and don’t embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?
When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don’t look at me that way… remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life’s issues every day… the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.
If I occasionally lose track of what we’re talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can’t, don’t be nervous, impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.
And when my old, tired legs don’t let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offered mine to you when you first walked.
When those days come, don’t feel sad… just be with me, and understand me while I get to the end of my life with love.
I’ll cherish and thank you for the gift of time and joy we shared. With a big smile and the huge love I’ve always had for you, I just want to say, I love you… my darling daughter.
If you watched the original play, chances are you didn’t see all this. Tyler Perry, ah… I mean Medea, known for her tough love approach to relationships and everything else for that matter, offers some sound advice to the audience.

I read an article on the Backlot about how there are still many gay men out there that are uncomfortable displaying public displays of affection (PDA) with their significant others.
No matter how out and proud a gay person may be, that doesn’t reflect one’s comfort level of displaying their love out in public. Some gay people are afraid of holding hands, kissing, making out in public because they may still feel the stigma of being gay and that their affection is best left behind closed doors. Sometimes it’s out of shame, but mostly it’s out of fear.
Although GLBT people are continuously making strides in ending being discriminated against because of their sexual orientation and gender identity, many horrible acts of violence are still being committed against gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people.
Just this year a gay man was gunned down in a gay friendly part of NYC in broad daylight just because he was dressed nonconforming to gender roles. I also read a story about a heterosexual couple being attacked in NYC simply because the husband kissed the couple’s gay friend goodbye.
Marriage equality and workplace discrimination laws don’t stop bigotry and stupidity. No law can prevent some crazy person from running up and attacking you on the street. A psycho with a gun could be anywhere at any moment, and sadly gay people must still live in fear of expressing themselves in fear that they could be gay bashed at any moment.
So that’s why many gay couples are too afraid to outwardly display their love in public. It’s sad, but understandable.
I’ve never had a boyfriend, so all of my instances with PDA have been with friends or dates, usually on the first date. I tend to enjoy treating a guy like they are my longtime boyfriend even on the first date. I figure that since it’s a rarity for me to have a second date, I might as well get out all the fun stuff on the first date. I love making guys uncomfortable on purpose, but I like walking out in public arm and arm or holding hands with a guy.
I also tend to get with guys that don’t identify as gay, so I’m always shocked when they don’t resist my PDA. I’ve walked down the streets of Boston holding hands and touching guys in public and can’t recall ever being harassed or looked at funny. Granted I’m the most flamboyant feminine gay I’ve ever known, so I don’t even notice people looking at me disapprovingly anymore.
Sometimes I’m a bit surprised I’ve never been gay bashed, since I am so unapologetically flamboyant. Thankfully it’s never happened to me, but that doesn’t mean it never will. I’ve received a lot of threatening looks, harassment on the street, and teasing, but luckily it’s never been a physical act of violence against me.I’ve heard so many stories of gay bashings, and though one would think the more flamboyant you are the more likely you’d be attacked, but it seems like that doesn’t even matter.
If someone hates gay people, they hate gay people. It doesn’t matter if you’re feminine or masculine, they hate you because you’re gay. They’ll try to harass, threaten, and eliminate you because of you’re sexuality, which sounds ridiculously stupid in this day and age, but prejudice will always exist. It’s annoying when gays try to turn on each other and blame the more feminine gays for causing straight people to hate gay people, and think that if feminine gays weren’t so flamboyant straights would accept them more, which is an absolutely stupid notion. Yet so many gays think that way.
I love seeing any gay couple displaying PDA. Whether they’re old, young, fat, fit, ugly, or attractive, it’s great to see gay couples not afraid to be affectionate to each other in public. It’s important to not only show other gays that it is possible to find love, but also that you shouldn’t ever live your life in fear. Gay bashings are unfortunate but not that common. It’s impossible to predict when something bad will happen, so there’s no point in living your life scared of the unknown. Some do end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, but not most.
I can’t wait to finally get a boyfriend and enjoy being able to publicly display my affection wherever I please. Though it is pretty disturbing when any couple, gay or straight, makes out on the street, but if I want to I have that right. No one can tell me where I can’t express my love!

A new Jezebel article reports that a study shows that the more siblings one has the less likely they are to get divorced.
The study was conducted by Ohio State University and studied over 57,000 people between the years 1972-2012.
Each sibling someone has decreases a person’s odds of divorce by 2%.
The study says that the findings only accounts for up to 7 siblings in a family, but having more than 7 siblings doesn’t make divorce more likely.
Research didn’t delve into why someone is less likely to get divorced because they grew up in a large household.
One of the researchers hypothesized that when someone grows up in a big family they learn how to deal with conflict better, because of course siblings fight a lot.
As an only child who can’t even get a boyfriend, this study comes as horrible news.
Both of my parents come from large families. My father is one of 7 children, and my mother is one of 9. They’ve been together a very long time.
I’m an only child who’s never been in a relationship.
The stereotype of an only child is that we’re spoiled, selfish, stubborn, uncompromising, all of which are true in my case.
