Dodd Middle School Lockdown: Full Story & Must-See Details

A school in Cheshire, Connecticut, Dodd Middle School, has been placed on lockdown after threats were made, with nobody being allowed in or out of the school, right before 1 P.M., local time, on Friday. With officials also asking parents not to respond to the school until the lockdown was officially announced to have been lifted, it is unclear during early reports what the exact threat is or who is responsible for making it.

What happened?

According to WTNH, officers arrived at the school at around 12:30 P.M., local time. Within fifteen minutes, Cheshire Superintendent’s office reported that the situation was downgraded to “non-threat,” but the school remains under lockdown. Police are staying at the school as it remains on lockdown, but have said that students and teachers are not in imminent danger.

The investigation concerning the school is still ongoing.


What are officials saying about the incident?

According to NBC Connecticut, the lockdown was originally put in place after the school administration received “notification against Dodd.”

According to New Haven Register, Lt. Jeffrey Sutherland described the original issue as “word of a threat against the school itself.”


The lockdown has since been lifted

According to My Record Journal, the lockdown was lifted after about an hour; officials revealed that the threat had been made by a student, although it was ultimately deemed not credible, with the Board of Education releasing the following statement:

“The school was put into a lockdown because of a report we received that a student had made a threat against the school.”

“Based on their investigation, the Cheshire Police have concluded that there is no credible threat against staff, students, or the school.”

The Hartford Courant also confirmed that students will be dismissed from the school at their regular hours; at this time, however, officials have not elaborated on the original threat that sparked the lockdown in the first place.

Police Release Audio of 911 Call From Teen Who Was Stuck Inside Of His Minivan

Handout via Police

Kyle Plush, a 16-year-old high schooler, was found dead inside of his 2004 Honda Odessey on the evening of Tuesday, April 10, six hours after calling the police for help. Audio of Plush’s 911 call reveals that he was saying he was stuck in his van and close to death. Plush became trapped under the third-row bench seat of his van as he was reaching for his Tennis gear in the trunk.

Plush, a sophomore student at Seven Hills School in Cincinnati, first called 911 at 3:14 p.m., saying he was trapped in his van in the sophomore parking like at Seven Hills, asking for authorities to send immediate help. Plush was stuck underneath the third-row bench seat of his van when the seat collapsed as he was leaning back to get tennis gear from the trunk. While Plush was not near his phone, he was able to call 911 using Apple’s Siri function. However, because he was so far from his phone, the 911 operator could not hear Plush, therefore failing to get a more accurate description of his location.

A preliminary autopsy report shows he died of asphyxia due to chest compression.

via CNN:

Kyle made his first call to 911 operators shortly after 3 p.m. Tuesday from a parking lot at Seven Hills. He was using voice commands to dial 911, because he didn’t have his phone in his hand, said Cincinnati Police Department Lt. Steve Saunders. The first call ends and the dispatcher alerts local law enforcement.

Saunders said there are several parking lots associated with the school. A map on the school’s website shows seven parking lots surrounding the campus. A Hamilton County Sheriff’s deputy who was working traffic detail for the school also searched the area. The deputy searched in at least two parking lots near the school. “I looked in a van and I didn’t see anybody in it,” the deputy told dispatchers.

Cincinnati Police Chief Eliot Isaac was asked if the deputy had seen the right van, “we believe that the deputy saw the van a little bit later.” “It was really hard to hear,” the operator told the deputy. “It was really a strange call.” While the search was going on, a 911 operator tried calling Kyle back, but after several rings his voice mail picked up. The search for the van lasted 11 minutes. Officers didn’t find anything in the parking lots near the school, so they closed the incident.

Just two minutes before officers ended their search, Kyle had called 911 again. This time his voice was faint but he gave key information about the type of van he was in – something he hadn’t done during the first call. “This is not a joke. This is not a joke. I’m trapped inside a gold Honda Odyssey van,” he said. Banging can be heard in the background. “I probably don’t have much time left. Tell my Mom I love her, if I die,” Kyle tells the 911 operator. The call lasted more than 2½ minutes. There is no response from the operator on the recording.

Eliot Isaac, the Cincinnati Police Chief, said something went “terribly wrong” in the department’s response to Plush’s 911 calls. Police identified the operator who answered Plush’s second called as Amber Smith, who has since been placed on administrative leave. Police Chief Isaac also called Plush’s death a “horrific tragedy.”

The Daily Mail reports that Smith, who answered the second phone call, has twice posted on Facebook to complain about working overtime. Her most recent work-related Facebook post was on Friday, April 6. In May of 2017, Smith posted to Facebook saying: “I’m always at work and working overtime… all it does (is) make us hate our job and hate the people that are off for months.” At this time, it is not clear if Smith was working overtime when Plush called.

Plush had been attending The Seven Hills School, a private academy in Cincinnati, since sixth grade.

WWE Greatest Battle Royal 2018: Matches, Preview & Predictions

On April 27th the WWE will be holding a MASSIVE event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia called the Greatest Royal Rumble, and when they say greatest — they mean it. They are taking the format of what is arguably their most popular event besides Wrestlemania, The Royal Rumble, and turning up the dial to 11. Instead of the tried and true formula of a 30 man, over the top rope elimination match, the WWE has decided to boost that to a 50 man match. That’s right, 50 men enter, only one can win. We all thought that 30 was huge, how the heck are they going to pull off 50!? They are going to pull from every promotion they have, including NXT, because not only are they going to be having this massive Royal Rumble, they are also putting every men’s title up for grabs and two non-title singles matches. What does this stacked card have in store? Here’s where and what to watch on April 27th.

WWE Greatest Battle Royal Details:

Date: Friday, April 27th

Predictions & Must-See Matches:

The 50-Man Royal Rumble: This is pretty obvious. We all love the Royal Rumble, and now they add 2o more Superstars? It also brings up a lot of questions, the most important being how are they going to fill that many spots… With nine other matches pulling a minimum of 24 Superstars in a different direction than this massive match, what could WWE have up its sleeve? We are definitely going to see NXT and 205 Live talent on hand but are some of those previous 24 going to be pulling double duty? Will the WWE invest in bringing over some surprise appearances to Saudi Arabia? Is this going to be awesome? Or is too much of a good thing still too much… I think it’ll be the former.

Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns in a Steel Cage: Who saw the ending of Wrestlemania 34 going the way it did? Pretty much no one. What seemed like a foregone conclusion, Reigns becoming Universal Champion as Lesnar rides off into the UFC sunset, was shattered in a bloody mess as Lesnar pinned a crimson masked Reigns to retain his Title. When the dust cleared from the main event shocker reports began to fly. Brock Lesnar has resigned with the WWE. Brock Lesnar and Vince McMahon had intense words after the match backstage. Has Brock Lesnar gone into business for himself? Roman Reigns says he learned of his match in Saudi Arabia from the Internet–How much of this is a work? Regardless this would be a good place to jump the title to Reigns, with the crowd most likely being a little less adverse to seeing the Big Dog get the title than that of the Super Dome at Wrestlemania. The can crown Reigns without having to edit a negative crowd reaction in later airings… And it’ll be in a Steel Cage, so that’s pretty awesome.

Intercontinental Title Ladder Match: Ok so you’re going to take the three stellar superstars from Wrestlemania 34, add a ladder, and inject Samoa Joe into the equation? Count me in. We already know The Miz is a great storyteller. We already know Finn Balor and Seth Rollins can fight forever. And we were so excited to have it at ‘Mania 34. Now you add a ladder that can cater to the intense and athletic styles of Balor and Rollins? And for the cherry on top the return of Samoa Joe who arguably brings the one thing this trio lacks, a huge bruiser who can level anyone in their way. This match could potentially steal the show, making it a must-see.

Chris Jericho vs. The Undertaker in a Casket Match: So this is interesting on so many levels. First and foremost this was not the initial match. Originally this was supposed to be Rusev vs. The Undertaker and Jericho was supposed to appear in the Royal Rumble match. Without much explanation, besides a Lana twitter post saying she requested Rusev be removed which itself seemed more kayfabe (in WWE storytelling timeline) than shoot (real life), this is puzzling. Rusev has been arguably the most popular gimmick WWE has right now, all of which happened organically. “Rusev Day” chants dominate shows and events, so much so it got Rusev injected into the US Title match at Wrestlemania. But Rusev has seemed frustrated of late on Twitter– but are we all being tricked? Will he show up in this match? Or the Rumble? Also, how will these two vets, Jericho and Undertaker, perform with each other now that they have been paired? Both are WWE Legends but have very little in-ring experience the past year. This will be Jericho’s first in-ring appearance with WWE since his Wrestle Kingdom match with Kenny Omega in January, and the Undertaker has less than three minutes of in-ring action in the past 365 days. It’ll be awesome to see the Deadman in a Casket Match, and Jericho has almost always been solid, but will they gel together after so much time off?

It seems like this PPV has snuck up on us with how much they’ve stacked into it. It is still building its matches with less than two weeks before it hits, so keep an eye on here for changes. I for one am extremely excited to see a 50-man Royal Rumble.

What You Need To Know About Marvel’s Most Powerful Weapon – The Infinity Gauntlet

0
0

Marvel Comics

For the last few years, movie audiences have been teased by hints of the Infinity Gantlet’s awesome powers. The gems that are required to power it, the Infinity Stones, have appeared throughout Marvel’s films as well, each demonstrating their own remarkable abilities to some extent. Now in Avengers: InfinityWar, the pieces of this cosmic puzzle are seemingly all coming together at last. Scenes from the trailers show Thanos and his minions acquiring most of the Stones he needs to operate the Gauntlet, though the location of the Soul Stone is still unknown. But one thing still has yet to be explained: what, exactly, is the Infinity Gauntlet capable of?


The Power of the Infinity Stones

In the comics the Infinity Gauntlet is essentially capable of, well….anything. By tapping into the abilities of the Infinity Stones the Gauntlet’s wearer has mastery over time, space, individual’s minds and souls, and reality itself. Together this gives the wearer borderline omnipotence. The removal of the Gauntlet instantly cuts them off from using its power, though any changes they may have wrought with it will stay unless the next wearer undoes them. Notable accomplishments of the Gauntlet include destroying half of the universe’s population, creating entirely new planets and lifeforms, bringing the dead to life, and so much more.

The Collector explains the Infinity Stones to the Guardians


The Gauntlet itself

While the Stones have ancient and convoluted origins, the Gauntlet itself was created by Thanos. Once he had acquired all the Stones he needed an effective way to tap into their powers. A gauntlet was perfect for directly accessing and manipulating the Stones to any purpose he desired. Ever since the Infinity Gauntlet has been a mainstay of the Marvel Universe and directly connected to the Stones, though without them it’s essentially just a very large, ornate metal glove.

The empty Gauntlet in Age of Ultron

While it’s been confirmed that Thanos wants the gauntlet primarily to carry out his depopulation agenda (based off of the Gauntlet’s debut comic arc from the 80’s, The Infinity Gauntlet) we know nothing about what else it might or could be used for. The comics are the best base of knowledge we have so far, both the origin of the Gauntlet and Stones and the range of its abilities will almost certainly be changed or watered down to some degree. But unless any more information is released by Marvel or the Russo’s it seems like we will all have to wait for the movie to see what the Gauntlet is truly capable of.

Dez Bryant Net Worth 2018: How Much Is Dez Worth?

0

Dez Bryant is an American wide receiver in the National Football League. Up until April 13th, 2018, Bryant had spent his entire career with the Dallas Cowboys, seeing much success while playing there and racking up sizable earnings along the way. Let’s take a look at Bryant’s career, beginning with his net worth.


Dez Bryan Net Worth As of 2018: $32 Million

Between his contracts, his most recent one was signed in 2015 for $70 Million, and his endorsements/investments, he has come across a massive sum of wealth. How did he come about to earn this money?


Early Years

Bryant was born on November 4th, 1988, in Galveston, County, Texas, eventually moving to and growing up in Lufkin, Texas. He had a troubled upbringing, his mother was just 15 years old when she had him and suffered from drug addiction. She was arrested for drug dealing when Bryant was eight years old.

Despite his rough childhood, Bryant excelled at football. As a junior, he caught 48 passes for 1,025 yards and 16 touchdowns. He was recruited by numerous colleges to play football, and eventually chose to attend Oklahoma State University.

Bryant posted solid numbers for his first season with the Cowboys, finishing second on the team with 43 receptions for 622 yards and six touchdowns in 12 games. It was his next season, 2008, where Bryant really showcased his talents.

Over the course of his sophomore season, Bryant posted a stat line of 87 receptions for 1,480 yards and 19 touchdowns, including two punt returns for touchdowns. He helped lead the Cowboys to an appearance in the Holiday Bowl against the Oregon Ducks. Despite his impressive performance in that game, the Cowboys would lose the bowl.

His junior year was mired in controversy as Bryant was suspended for most of the season. He failed to disclose a meeting that he had with former NFL star Deion Sanders, a violation of NCAA bylaws. Before his suspension, he was considered a potential Heisman trophy winner and was regarded as the best wide receiver in college football. In three games, he finished with 323 receiving yards, four receiving touchdowns, and a punt return touchdown

2010-2014

He decided to forego his senior season at Oklahoma State, entering the 2010 NFL draft. He was believed to be the best wide receiver in that year’s draft class and was being targeted by many teams. Due to some character concerns, Bryant dropped until later in the draft and was eventually picked up by the Dallas Cowboys.

He signed his rookie contract following the draft, a five year deal worth $12 million with about $8.4 million of that guaranteed. He played fairly well in his rookie season, mainly playing a support role for the Cowboys’ offense. Overall, Bryant finished his rookie season with 45 receptions for 561 yards and six receiving touchdowns.

In 2011, Bryant began to play better and started to showcase his talent and why he was worth the first round pick. He finished the season with 63 receptions for 928 yards and 9 touchdowns. This season cemented his place as a true up and coming wide receiver in the league and potential future star.

The next season, Bryant would have one of his best years, setting his personal best record for receiving yards. He would rack up 1,382 yards receiving, 12 touchdowns and 92 receptions. He did suffer from turnover issues, fumbling the ball five times and losing it twice.

2013 was his first Pro Bowl season and finished as one of the top players in the league. He had 93 catches for 1,233 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns. Bryant was an integral part of the Cowboys’ offense and served as quarterback Tony Romo’s primary weapon

Bryant saw continued success in 2014, earning another trip to the Pro Bowl, with a stat line of 1,320 receiving yards and 88 catches. Oh and he also brought down 16 touchdowns!


2015-Present

At the start of the 2015 season, Bryant signed the contract extension he so rightly deserved. Bryant and the Cowboys came to an agreement on a five-year contract worth $70 million, that included $45 million guaranteed and a $20 million signing bonus.

Despite signing this contract, Bryant, unfortunately, suffered a foot injury that kept him sidelined for seven games. He would finish the season with 31 catches, 401 receiving yards, and three touchdowns.

HIs 2016 and 2017, were subpar (well, by Dez Bryant standards.) He would finish with a combined total 119 receptions,1,634 receiving yards, and 14 touchdowns. In April 2018, Bryant would be released by the Cowboys. It remains to be seen where he will go, but he has the potential for a nice bounce-back season in a new landscape.

5 Scooter Libby Facts He Doesn’t Want You To Know

0
0

Lewis “Scooter” Libby is a former top aide in the George W. Bush administration, serving as chief of staff to then-Vice President Dick Cheney. Libby was convicted in 2007 of obstructing justice, perjury and lying to the FBI.

He was involved in what is now known as the “Plame affair”, in which the identity of CIA agent Valerie Plame was leaked. Although no one was charged with the actual leak, Libby was convicted of lying to FBI investigators.

Libby was pardoned by President Donald Trump in April 2018, completely absolving him of his prior convictions.

Here are five things you probably don’t know about the former top aide in Washington.

 


1. George W. Bush Commuted Libby’s Original Sentence

Instagram Photo

Libby was convicted of lying to the FBI and was sentenced to 30 months in prison in 2007. A month later, President George W. Bush commuted (changed) his prison sentence. The new sentence still required Libby to complete a two-year probation, pay $250,000 fine, and perform 400 hours of community service. This commutation fell short of Dick Cheney’s recommendation to grant a full pardon and exonerate his chief of staff of any wrong-doing. In 2018, President Trump’s pardon did just that-providing full legal forgiveness for Libby’s crime and restore all of his civil rights.


2. James Comey Appointed A Special Counsel To Oversee Libby’s Case

Instagram Photo

In 2007, James Comey was the deputy attorney general, and appointed a special counsel to oversee the FBI investigation into Libby. You’ve probably heard the name “Comey” once or twice in the past year. He served as FBI Director from 2013-2017 when he was fired by Trump. He’ll also be releasing a tell-all book about the 45th in April, 2018. Some speculate that this pardon is an attempt by the Trump administration to discredit Comey and his investigational direction. It certainly wouldn’t be a surprise if Trump chose to retaliate against someone who said he was “unethical and untethered to truth.”

 


3. Trump Has Never Met Libby

Instagram Photo

Although never having met Libby, Trump knows his story and apparently feels for the guy. “I don’t know Mr. Libby,” Trump said in a statement released by the White House press secretary. “But for years I have heard that he has been treated unfairly. Hopefully, this full pardon will help rectify a very sad portion of his life.”


4. Libby Was Not Allowed To Vote Or Practice Law While Serving His Sentence

Instagram Photo

Even with President Bush’s commutation, for years, Libby was without many of his civil rights. His voting rights were restored in 2013 by Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell. Three years later, he was cleared to practice law again after the District of Columbia Court of Appeals reinstated him to the D.C. Bar. Now, in April 2018, Libby has been completely pardoned by President Donald Trump.


5. Actor David Andrews Played Scooter Libby In The Movie, Fair Game

Instagram Photo

Fair Game is a 2010 biographical political film about the Plame affair, a CIA leak scandal that involved the blown cover of CIA agent Valerie Plame. Naomi Watts stars as Plame and Sean Penn as her husband, Joseph C. Wilson. David Andrews plays Scooter Libby in the film.


Top 5 Team Dez Bryant Might Sign With

0
0

An era has ended today in Dallas as the Cowboys have released their former star wide receiver, Dez Bryant. Drafted in 2010 by America’s team, Dez has spent his entire career in Dallas where he became one of the leagues elite wide receivers. Throughout his eight seasons with the Cowboys, Bryant scored 73 touchdowns, had 7,459 receiving and averaged 14 yards per catch. The soon to be 30-year-old might be the most reliable receiver on the market at the moment putting him in the cross-hairs of several NFL teams looking to strengthen their receiving core. Here are my top 5 teams Bryant will sign with.

New York Jets

With just over $23 million in cap space, the Jets have plenty of capital to bring in a big named player. So far this offseason, they have added quarterback turned wide receiver Terrelle Pryor to their receiving core. He joins Jermaine Kearse, Quincy Enunwa, and Robby Anderson, a potentially young, explosive wide receiver core. They also re-signed Josh McCown and signed Teddy Bridgewater to a one year contract, giving them two viable options at quarterback. The Jets would be able to offer Bryant almost whatever he wanted salary wise to bring him in, as well as making him the top receiver immediately.

With the third pick in this years draft, the Jets could use their pick to shore up their offensive line needs, or more likely draft a quarterback, and bring in Bryant through free agency allowing them to spend their money on the veteran while getting quality linemen on rookie contract prices. The only thing the Jets couldn’t offer Bryant is a shot at the postseason. The Jets lack in so many areas that it should be a few seasons before Gang Green see any post-season success.

Arizona Cardinals

Fresh off of signing Sam Bradford on to be their new starting quarterback, the Cardinals are looking to give him some targets other than veteran Larry Fitzgerald. Behind Fitzgerald, Arizona’s depth at receiver is pretty thin, making Bryant a viable option. With a duo of Fitzgerald and Bryant, the Cardinals could make the case that they would have the best receiving pair in the league, and with nearly $20 million in cap space, they could afford him. Unfortunately for the Cardinals, after their release of Tyrann Mathieu, they need serious help at the cornerback and safety positions. Signing Bryant could leave them without enough money to pursue effective playmakers on the other side of the ball. For this to work for the Cardinals, they’d have to have a stellar draft.

New England Patriots

What’s that? A possibly elite veteran wide receiver has been released? Well, Bill Belichick must feel a disturbance in the force because this pick is right in his wheelhouse. Seeing the Patriots go after Bryant shouldn’t surprise anyone. The picked up Randy Moss nine seasons into his career, and he ended up setting the record for most touchdowns scored in a season by any wide receiver. But that was Moss, and this is Bryant.

Even though the Patriots released Brandin Cooks and Danny Amendola, Brady still has Gronk, Edelman and Jordan Mathews to throw too. Yet even with their current strength at receiver, it wouldn’t be unlike them for the Patriots to go and sign Bryant. I wouldn’t expect Bryant to sign the biggest contract with them, but the probability of competing in the next super bowl is sure to swing in their favor.

San Fransisco 49ers

Man, wouldn’t this move annoy Cowboys fans? With the addition of Jimmy “Brady 2.0” Garappolo at quarterback last season, the 49ers future looks very bright. They made a great move in signing Jerrick McKinnon after he was released by the Vikings to bolster their run game and now should look to support their air attack. Garappolo has already shown us what he can do with reasonably unknown receivers,  winning all four games he started with the 49ers last season.

With their depth at receiver looking about as thin as paper, signing Bryant would be a huge move. The addition of the former Cowboy would add a much needed veteran presence to a fairly young receiving group, and with $47 million in cap space, they could afford him without a doubt. In an ideal situation, they would sign Bryant and draft a promising rookie wide receiver in the draft, say D.J. Moore should he still be available in the second or third round, to grow and develop with Garappolo.

If they play this right, it should also leave them space to add to their fairly weak pass rushers. If I have to pick one team, this is where I’d like to see him go.

This, I very much would not like to see, but it makes sense. With the departure of WR Jordy Nelson and TE Richard Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers could use a decent set of hands to throw to other than Devante Adams. Randall Cobb remains with the team, but his stock has declined these last few years with subpar play. Other than Cobb and Adams, Rodgers doesn’t have much to look forward to in his receiving core, especially after Trevor Davis’ incident. With limited cap space and lack of strength and depth elsewhere on the team, this seems like it would be a long shot for Bryant. Though, seeing Rodgers throw it up to Bryant would be a pretty cool sight.


With plenty of time left in the offseason, Bryant has plenty of time to figure out where he wants to go. If I were to choose a sleeper pick, I’d say the Baltimore Ravens. They have the least cap space of all the teams I mentioned but need him almost more than any of them. Who knows, maybe he’ll stay in his own division.


Richard Wahl: Full Story & Must-See Details Of $533M Millions Lottery Winner

One lucky man from New Jersey, Richard Wahl, had his life turned upside down when he recently became the New Jersey winner of the $533 million Mega Millions jackpot. Although he waited two weeks to reveal himself, with at least one failed attempt to claim the money involving reporters, it turns out that you are not allowed to stay anonymous in New Jersey.

What happened?

After buying his ticket at a Lukoil mini-mart in Riverdale, Wahl was the New Jersey winner of the $533 million Mega Millions jackpot that was drawn on March 30, 2018. For undisclosed reasons, Wahl waited around two weeks to come forward as the winner of the jackpot, possibly to get his affairs in order.

He recently moved to the city for work and is not normally a Mega Millions player, as he claims his winning ticket only came from his second time playing! He also claimed to have only thought to have won $4 until he noticed quite a few numbers matched up! As he explained in the following press conference, as seen above, he explained the story more in-depth:

“On Thursday I had $20 left in my pocket and decided to buy some tickets and a Diet Coke.”

“I’m checking the numbers at 8:00. I didn’t know they draw at 11:00. … Around midnight I said, ‘If I win you’re going to hear a huge scream, we’re leaving on vacation and we’re going to retire.’”

Learning that he won on Good Friday, he confirmed that he actually went to the gas station before ultimately coming out, but noticed reporters were there and did not want to bring attention to himself. For the time being, the winning ticket was kept in a safe.

In the state of New Jersey, winners are not allowed to remain anonymous, with Wahl also being required to participate in a mandatory news conference.

Around half of the winnings will go to taxes, federal and state, which still gives him $175 million as long as Wahl takes the cash option, which he confirmed is the plan. Still a pretty penny!


Who is Richard Wahl?

Wahl, a 47-year-old from Vernon, although he recently moved to the area for work as a production manager for AAK Foodservice, a food services company.

He attributed his good fortune to divine providence since the numbers were already chosen by the Easy Pick, as he explained in the following statements:

“For us we believe God has a plan…it’s not only life-changing money for me, we want it to be life-changing money for others. Family, friends, people in need.”

While Wahl and his family are Catholic, they do not belong to a church due to having recently relocated; the family still has charities lined up that will receive a donation from Wahl’s winnings. Wahl also confirmed that he will use the money to help support his mother, who is said to be on “reduced income.”

That said, he still has some plans to use the money for fun:

“I wanted to rebuild a 1963 Corvette. Whether I get a chance to do it or not, I don’t know. But that’s been my dream.”

Scooter Libby Net Worth 2018: How Much Is Libby Worth?

Lewis Libby, better known “Scooter’, is an American lawyer and a former advisor to Vice President Dick Cheney. In October 2005, Libby resigned from his post as after his he was indicted on five federal counts as a result of the Plame affair, in which a CIA agent’s covert identity was revealed to the public. Valerie Plame was a covert CIA intelligence officer whose identity was leaked to the press by former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage. Libby was convicted of one count of obstruction of justice, two counts of perjury, and one count of making false statements to investigators. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison, which was controversially commuted by President Bush.

With that, let’s take a look at Libby’s career, beginning with his net worth.

Scooter Libby Net Worth 2018: $15 Million

Despite going to jail and his political shortcomings, Libby has managed to earn a sizable fortune over the course of his career. Through his work as a lawyer and member of the Bush white house, Libby has amassed a Net Worth in the area of $15 Million. Let’s take a look at his career and see how he got here.


Early Years

Libby was born in New Haven, Connecticut and grew up in a family of particular affluence. His father was an investment banker.

Libby and his brother Hank were the first members of his family to graduate from college. Libby attended Yale where he graduated magna cum laude in 1972. He went on to Columbia Law School in 1975.

The origins of his nickname “Scooter” is believed to have come from his father, who upon seeing Lewis crawling in his crib, who joked “He’s a Scooter!”


Law Career

Following his graduation from Columbia, Libby went on to join the law firm of  Schnader, Harrison, Segal & Lewis LLP in Philadelphia, becoming admitted to the Pennsylvania bar. He would practice law for over six years when he would join the US State Department for a period of three years, before eventually returning to law.

He would work with two different law firms in the Washington DC area during the 1990s, including the law firm that US President Richard Nixon once worked at. He worked on the Marc Rich case, in which a former commodities trader was convicted of working with the government of Iran, a known adversary of the United States.


White House Years

In 2001, Libby was tapped by Vice President Dick Cheney to serve as his Chief Of Staff. In this capacity, Libby served as Cheney’s most trusted advisor and confidant. Libby became heavily involved in the Bush administration’s attempts to broker a serious peace solution between the Israelis and Palestinians. He became so involved with the Israelis, that it was once said by Jack Straw, a British politician, that it was “a toss-up whether [he] is working for the Israelis or the Americans on any given day.” He was said the most pro-Israel member of the early Bush administration.

He also argued that there should be a universal smallpox vaccine, for which he earned the nickname “Germ Boy” at the White House.


Plame Affair

By far, Libby is most well known for his involvement in what has become known as the “Plame Affair.” This scandal, in which Valerie Plame’s identity was leaked to the press. Plame had been serving as a CIA officer and whose status as an agent was confidential. It was suspected that Libby was the one who leaked this information to the press, but it was discovered to be Richard Armitage. Libby was investigated for lying to the investigators tasked with looking into the case. He was convinced on four of the five charges leveled against him and sentenced to 30 months in jail.

His sentence would be commuted (lessened) by President Bush, but he would still be forced to serve some time as well as pay a fine of $250,000 and do 400 hours of community service.

On April 13th, 2018, Libby was pardoned by President Donald Trump, a move that was seen as highly controversial by much of the general public.

Spurs vs. Warriors Game 1 Live Stream: How to Watch NBA Playoffs Online

0

At long last, the NBA playoffs are finally upon us. The first game of the playoffs will be between the San Antonio Spurs and the Golden State Warriors. The Spurs entered the season with hopes of dethroning the Warriors as Western Conference champions. However, the Spurs have underachieved this season and finished seventh in the Western Conference standings. Their opponents in this contest, the Golden State Warriors, have been extremely solid this season despite dealing with a variety of key injuries throughout the season. As a result, the Warriors were unable to acquire home court advantage throughout the playoffs as the team finished second in the conference standings. However, these is a clear talent discrepancy between these two teams and one can expect to see it on Saturday.

San Antonio’s success is due to its elite defense and bench production. The Spurs, led by star forward Kawhi Leonard, were expected to compete for an NBA championship this season. However, Leonard has only played in nine out of the team’s 82 games this season and the team was still 47-35. One major reason for the team’s ability to win without its best player is its defense. This season, the Spurs tied for first in points allowed per game and have used their stifling defense to win a ton of low scoring contests. The Spurs also are tied for the fourth-highest scoring bench in the NBA and use its tremendous depth to tire out their opponents. If the Spurs plan on winning this contest, expect its bench to play extremely well.

Golden State’s success has been due to its star point guard Stephen Curry and its star forward Kevin Durant. Both players are former MVP award winners and have proven that they are still elite in today’s NBA. This season, Curry was averaging 26.4 points per game along with 6.1 assists per game. Curry’s statistics are even more impressive once one factor in his efficiency from the floor. Curry was shooting an absurd 49.5% from the field and 42.3% from the three-point line. However, Curry has been ruled out for this series against the Spurs due to a knee injury. His absence is huge for the Warriors but they still might have enough firepower to advance past the first round.

Leading the Warriors now is fellow superstar Kevin Durant. This season, Durant was averaging 26.4 points per game along with 6.8 rebounds per game. Similarly to Curry, Durant was also extremely efficient from the floor. He was shooting 51.6% from the field and 41.9% from behind the arc. With Durant still in the lineup along with Klay Thompson and Draymond Green, the Warriors still possess a tremendous amount of weapons despite the absence of the team’s starting point guard.

As for my prediction, I have to side with the Warriors. The Warriors are clearly the better team and should be able to overpower the Spurs. The Spurs have lost three out of four meetings with the Warriors this season and I do not expect the Spurs to be able to handle Golden State’s potent offense the fifth time around.

Milos Forman, best known as the director of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, has passed away at the age of 86 this past Friday night, as confirmed by his agent, Dennis Aspland.

What happened?

According to The New York Times, Forman, whose birth name was Jan Tomas Forman, passed away in Connecticut, noting that he had been a native of the Czech Republic.

Forman got his start as a director in his native former Czechoslovakia, becoming a prominent figure of the Czechoslovak New Wave and some of his best-known films from this period include Loves of a Blonde and The Fireman’s Ball. In 1968, he left Europe for the United States, becoming a naturalized citizen in 1977. While in the States, some of his most famous films would include One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Hair and Amadeus; the former film won Oscars in five categories: Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay.

On Twitter, director Edgar Wright issued the following statement of condolences:

“Very sad to hear that the great director Miloš Forman has passed away. He had a tremendous filmography that documented the rebel heart and human spirit. I have seen ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest’ enough times to be able to silently mouth along with the movie. RIP.”

Writer and director James Mangold also issued similar sentiments on Twitter:

“Crushed tonight to learn of the passing of one of the great teachers in my life, Milos Foreman. He leaves behind a beautiful and moving and artistically daring collection of films and also many other students touched by his generosity, charm and brilliance. RIP.”


What is Milos Forman’s official cause of death?

At this time, an official cause of death for Milos Forman does not appear to have been released. As mentioned, he was 86 at the time of his passing, which took place in Connecticut.

Art Bell Cause Of Death: How Die Art Die?

Radio host Art Bell, best known for his nationally syndicated paranormal series, “Coast to Coast AM,” died at his Nevada home at the age of 72. His official date of death was Friday the 13th.

What happened?

According to Snopes, Bell’s show reached the peak of popularity in the 1990’s, in which it was broadcast on approximately 500 North American radio stations, including in his hometown in Nevada.

According to the Coast to Coast AM website, Bell, who got his start in radio as a teenager, once set a Guinness World Record for a solo broadcast that lasted 116 straight hours while working in Japan as a radio DJ:

“By the age of 13, Art was an FCC licensed radio technician. A few years later, as a young airman, Bell and an equally foolhardy buddy built their own pirate radio station right on Amarillo Air Force base, secretly broadcasting rock ‘n’ roll to appreciative locals.”

“These kinds of antics were not limited to bootleg military radio. As a civilian DJ, Art Bell landed in the Guinness Book of Records for a 116 hour (and 15 minutes) solo broadcast marathon “playing the hits” on KSBK on Okinawa, Japan.”

“Then he raised money in Alaska that allowed Art to charter a DC 8, fly to Vietnam and rescue 130 Vietnamese Orphans stranded in Saigon at the war’s end. They were eventually all brought to America and adopted by American families. Art’s no-nonsense demeanor doesn’t fool his listeners who sense he’s more complex underneath.”


What is Art Bell’s official cause of death?

At this time, an official cause of death for Bell has not been released; according to NBC News Las Vegas, an autopsy has been scheduled to determine his cause of death in the upcoming days. As mentioned, he was 72 at the time of his passing; although news of his death was not announced until the following day, his official date of death was also Friday the 13th.

As this story is developing, more information will be released as made available.
