Being a part of the first breakout season of “Breaking Amish” came back to haunt Rebecca on the latest episode of the spin-off series “Breaking Amish: Brave New World.” She was asking about getting a job at a restaurant when she was emphatically told, “No.”

Abe, who was with Rebecca, asked the waitress if she’d grown up Amish. When she said that she hadn’t, Abe countered, with ,”Then don’t tell me how the Amish live their life.”

‘The 2013 Miss USA Pageant’: Miss Utah Gives Incoherent Answer About Workplace Inequality (VIDEO)

It would make sense for beauty pageant contestants to look up to contestants from past pageants. They can look to them for inspiration on poise, presentation and even how they handle the question-and-answer portion. That said, they probably shouldn’t be looking to Miss Teen South Carolina 2007, Caitlin Upton — she of the infamous “the Iraq everywhere like such as…” And yet, Miss Utah seemed to be channeling Upton when she answered a question on “The 2013 Miss USA Pageant.”

Marissa Powell, 21-years old, was powering her way through the competition when she hit a major roadblock. She was asked about how women are continuing to earn less than men in America, and what she thinks that means for our society.

Miami Heat Can Blame Ends Of Quarters For NBA Finals Game 5 Loss (VIDEO/PHOTOS)

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Until Tuesday night, the Miami Heat will be lamenting 8 bad minutes.

Eight very bad minutes, actually.

So bad that they took away any realistic chance of winning Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night. So bad that they put the reigning champions on the brink of elimination. So bad that they ensured the Heat season can only be saved by winning two games in Miami, or else they will face the indignity of watching an opponent celebrate a title on their floor for the second time in three years.
