This right here is life goals.

Dr. Fred Distelhorst, an 88-year-old retired orthodontist has become the oldest person to climb to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Distelhorst, from Vail, Colorado, summited Mount Kilimanjaro with his granddaughter, Ellen Edgerton, who was already in Tanzania volunteering. Ellen was volunteering with Bob Bandoni’s Shoulder to Shoulder program when she emailed her grandfather saying “I just signed you up to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.”

According to Vail Daily, Edgerton, who still stays fit by riding his bike and skiing more than 100 days a year, took a warmup stroll up Quandary Peak near Breckenridge before hopping on a plane to Dallas, then to London, and then another to Nairobi. The next day, he flew to Kilimanjaro with his granddaughter.

Deciding they wanted to climb for a purpose, Edgerton and his granddaughter started a GoFundMe page to help them raise money for the children’s home in Kenya where Edgerton has been volunteering.

via GoFundMe:

Friends and Family,

As many of you know my grandfather and I just finished climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in 6 days. Because my grandfather summited, he broke the record for the oldest person to reach the top, Uhuru Peak!

We both decided we wanted to climb with a PURPOSE. I spent the prior 3 weeks in Meru, Kenya, staying at an orphanage called KACH, which takes in children who have been orphanged from AIDS and violence. I co-led a student group called Student Shoulder to Shoulder (SStS) in which we attended the communities needs through farming, installing biogas digesters, digging etc. I also stayed an extra week to assist at local hospitals.

The founder of the children’s home, Dr. Karambu, has told me that they urgently need to build a house for their upcoming 13+ year old boys, due to a cultural tradition in Kenya, which states teenage boys must live in a separate house from the family due to their coming of age.

Thus, I have created this page as a way to spread awareness about the issues in Kenya and to ask for support for building these children, and my new friends, a place to sleep.

Any donation, no matter how small ($1) will help and is greatly appreciated. I have created this safe page to make it EASY and FAST to donate.

Thank you for your support!
Ellen Edgerton

Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the world’s Seven Summits, which consist of the highest peaks on each of the seven continents. Kilimanjaro rises 19,361 feet above sea level, which makes it the world’s tallest freestanding mountain. As many as 30,000 people climb it every year.

Stephen Siciliano, the owner of the house that “The Delts” lived in, emailed a statement to the Democrat & Chronicle, saying “I fully support the efforts of the Brockport Village Police, SUNY Brockport Police and SUNY Brockport officials. I called a meeting with the appropriate parties in October to get a handle of the situation. I complied and helped with the requests of the investigation. Since the beginning, I have been proactive about the situation and will continue to support the Brockport Police, The College of Brockport and the community.”

Boston Red Sox pitcher Steven Wright was arrested on Friday and booked on domestic violence charges following an incident with his wife in his Tennessee home.

Wright was arrested on Friday, December 8, 2017. He has been charged with assault and preventing a 911 call, according to Williamson Court Records. The pitcher was released on December 9 after posting $5,000 bail. According to records, Wright was booked at 9:25 P.M. and released from jail at 9:15 A.M.

The domestic assault arrest was first reported by Rob Bradford of WEEI and Evan Drellich of NBC Sports Boston.

“On Friday night, Steven was arrested at our home following a verbal argument, and the police charged him with domestic assault,” said Wright’s attorney, Alex Little, in a statement to NBC Sports Boston. “Although he said things he deeply regrets, he did not raise his hand at anyone during the incident, and the situation was purely emotional. We are working together as a family to make our relationships stronger, and we ask that you respect our privacy as we do so.”

The Red Sox released a team statement saying, “We are aware of the incident involving Steven. This is certainly a matter that the Red Sox take very seriously. It is my understanding that both local police and MLB are looking into this and for that reason, the club won’t have any further comment at this time.”

Wright, 33, and his wife Shannon Wright had just celebrated their ninth wedding anniversary. They live together in Franklin, Tennessee, near the state capital of Nashville. According to social media posts, the couple has two young children; a son and a daughter.

According to sources from the Boston Herald, the Wrights are back together and the conflict had resolved “amicably.” He is due to appear in court on December 21. Along with his future criminal case, the MLB’s department of investigations will work under a joint policy with the MLBPA to investigate the incident, according to NBC Sports Boston.

The police report of Friday night’s domestic incident hasn’t been revealed the media yet.

Wright has been employed with the Boston Red Sox since 2013, working as a knuckleballer. He’s been on the shelf for most of the 2017 season after tearing cartilage in his left knee.

Here’s a look at Steven Wright’s mugshot:

Hannibal Buress Arrested In Miami, Promptly Tells The Police They’re ‘Goofy As F***’

Hannibal Buress is not a comedian I enjoy, but definitely a comedian I respect.

What that means is, while I don’t necessarily laugh out loud from his material, I “get” what he’s going for and can appreciate the commitment to his style. His sarcastic attitude and borderline disregard for the audience’s opinion make Buress both a tough comedian to enjoy but one to respect none the less.

And like most comedian’s stand up personas, Buress’ is very much a product of his true personality, which he puts on full display as he calls arresting officers “goofy as f*ck”, lining right up with who he is on stage.

On Saturday night in Miami, Burress was arrested on a disorderly intoxication charge after getting into an argument with Miami police. Burress, 34, was arrested around 10:30 PM on Saturday and was booked into Miami-Dade jail at 1:57AM on Sunday, December 10. He posted bail of $500 shortly before 6AM and was released.

But that’s not why we’re here — we’re here because we want to hear all the hilarious shit he drunkenly said to the cops, such as “You know y’all goofy as f**k. You don’t have probable cause for anything and you’re hella stupid right now.”

So in case you were ever wondering if Buress’s act was all an act, here’s your answer.

Following the deadly shooting at Aztec High School in New Mexico, San Juan Sheriff Ken Christesen is making an effort to highlight the heroics of one teacher in particular.

Kathleen Potter, a substitute teacher in the area, is being hailed as a hero for her quick thinking when William Atchison entered Aztec High School with his gun, killing two students: Casey Jordan-Marquez and Francisco “Paco” Fernandez.

According to reports, when Potter, a substitute teacher, heard the shots being fired, she knew she had to hide the 17 students in her classroom.

“I heard popping sounds down the hall, going pop, pop, pop. I looked in the hall and the custodian, Hill, was in the hall and he was saying, who are you? I could tell he was frantic and I knew what was going on,” Potter told Fox News.

Upon hearing the gunshots, Potter told all of the students to get into the classroom’s office, push the sofa against the door, and lay on the floor. The students waited until the shooting was over and all 17 were unharmed despite the fact the shooter attempted to enter the classroom.

via Fox News:

Potter knew both victims, Francisco Fernandez and Casey Marquez. She described them both as popular, all-American students. Fernandez, however, was in her class that morning. He asked Potter if he could go to the bathroom, signed out and never came back. When Fernandez opened the bathroom door, the shooter was standing inside with his gun loaded.

The students inside were quiet, as they were trained to be in a lockdown, according to Potter. But some were scared. The shooter found the students in the room with Potter. He tried to get in but couldn’t because of the sofa barricading the door. Then he shot through the walls but miraculously never hit anyone.

Eventually Potter heard the Sheriff’s department yell out. She opened the door and knew they were safe.

While Potter said she doesn’t consider herself a hero, she did say she’ll be back substitute teaching as soon as possible.

Vanderpump Rules cast member Stassi Schroeder is stunning and single. She broke up with her boyfriend Patrick Meagher over the summer, but you can see their relationship play out this season of Vanderpump Rules. Season 6 of the series shows Stassi and Patrick right before the break-up.

Schroeder has also earned herself some controversy over comments she made on a Podcast regarding the #MeToo movement. At the end of November, she released an episode of her podcast Straight Up with Stassi episode titled “Are We on a Male Witch Hunt?”

Notable quotes from that podcast which has garnered the reality series some serious controversy include the statements, “It’s like the Salem Witch trials, but for men,” as well as “No one can make me suck someone’s d*ck,” and “How is that sexual harassment? You could say no, or you could push them away.”

At first, Shroeder responded to the podcast backlash with sarcasm and dismissed critics as simply reading those statements out of context.

But she later took to her website to apologize for her remarks regarding the merits of the #MeToo movement. She sent out a letter to all of those affected by her podcast.

In her apology, Stassi said that she is someone who has always been pro-woman. That’s why she created a podcast to provide a safe space for women to talk about whatever they want, uncensored.

She said, “I’ve spent 3 years now discussing the fact that as women, we should feel comfortable to express ourselves/feelings/thoughts without feeling ashamed…(and) The idea of anyone being sexually assaulted horrifies me. The fact that I’ve upset women who have been sexually assaulted horrifies me. And for that I am truly, truly sorry.”

You can see Stassi Schroeder tonight on an all-new episode of Vanderpump Rules. See Stassi and the whole crew Monday nights at 9 P.M. EST.
