Nokia has revealed a trio of new Asha handsets, the Asha 500, 502, and 503, pushing its affordable smartphone range with an unusual “trapped in ice” aesthetic.

Nokia’s biggest announcements in Abu Dhabi today will no doubt focus on Lumia devices first and foremost, but it’s not leaving the Asha lineup out in the Finnish cold. After boasting that 26 million Ashas have sold so far, the company’s announced that it’s adding three successors to the Asha 501, …
Oscar-winner Octavia Spencer showed up at an AA meeting on “Mom.” She played Regina, who found herself opening up about her problems to Christy and Bonnie. Christy, who was struggling with some financial problems of her own, reached out to Regina at the meeting when she saw that Regina was crying.
What she didn’t expect was for Regina’s story to keep getting wilder and wilder. At first, she insisted that she wasn’t an alcoholic. But then she detailed how she gets through each day and night, and it became pretty clear that she was — she probably has a drug problem as well. It wasn’t until later, though, that she revealed what may have driven her to drink like that.
Regina agreed to stay the night at Christy’s house because she had a suspicioun that the police were waiting at her house. She was a money manager and she’d embezzled $3.5 million dollars from her clients. Finally resigned to her fate, Regina told Christy that she had some of that money stashed away that the feds would never find. She offered it to her, but Christy had to refuse.

‘Bones’ Wedding: Church Fire And Murder Can’t Stop This Wedding From Happening (VIDEO)
Posted in: Today's ChiliAfter years of waiting, it was finally time for Booth and Brennan to tie the knot on “Bones.” Of course, things didn’t go smoothly. Brennan dealt with her wedding anxiety by trying to throw herself into a cold case, and then the unthinkable happened. On the eve of their big day, the church they were to get married in burned to the ground.
Nevertheless, the wedding still happened, thanks to the determination and creativity of their friends. Surprisingly, it was Brennan’s dad who came through with the money to make their special day just perfect. And it was clean cash that he’d won legitimately in Las Vegas years ago. He couldn’t think of a better use for it than his daughter’s wedding.
As Hollywood Life’s Andy Swift pointed out, “Some things went off without a hitch, like the bride and groom both looking equally stunning, while other aspects of the couple’s big day were basically a parade of hitches.” Still, TV Fanatic’s Miranda Wicker said that after eight seasons, the wedding’s climax was “everything we could have expected.” She went on to say, “They’re not the pair friends would set up on a blind date. But despite their vast and varied differences, they’ve got a good thing going. They work. Opposites really do attract. At least in television.”
