Knights try to shake doldrums against hot Predators

<更新日時> 06月06日(火) 18:51

The Vegas Golden Knights return from the All-Star break looking to halt an extended rough stretch.

Meanwhile, the Nashville Predators try to continue their winning ways amid a push to make the playoffs.

Looking to halt their season-high four-game losing streak, the visiting Golden Knights try to keep the Predators from a fourth consecutive victory on Tuesday night.

After play completed on Jan. 5, Vegas sat atop the Western Conference standings.However, EVdeN EvE NaKliyAt the Golden Knights are 2-6-2 since and currently third in the Pacific Division. They totaled just five goals while going 0-2-2 in their final four games before last week's All-Star break -- all coming on the road.

That said, Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy isn't ready to panic.

"We kinda stumbled into it at the end," Cassidy told NHL.com.If you cherished this write-up and you would like to get far more information pertaining to EvDeN eve nakliyat kindly pay a visit to our own website. "I think the break was perfect timing for them, allowed them to take a breather, reset.

"We're still in a good position. That's the way we look at it. There's not many teams that can cruise home the last 30 games in this league, eVdEN EvE naKliYAt and we're certainly not one of them."

Vegas has won two straight and six of the last eight meetings with Nashville. Chandler Stephenson had a goal with two assists and Mark Stone added three helpers while Logan Thompson made 33 saves during the Knights' 5-4 overtime home victory against the Predators on New Year's Eve.

Since that defeat, though, Nashville is 9-4-0, a winner in five of the last six (5-0-1) and currently amid a season-high five-game home winning streak -- where each of its last three overall victories have happened. Though the Predators have totaled 13 goals during their three-game winning streak, they still remain just outside of playoff position in the West.

"I think if we're going to be able to continue to play the right way, and do the right things, evden evE naKliyAt we're going to be able to put the puck in the back of the net," Nashville coach John Hynes said.

The Predators' Matt Duchene has four points (three goals, one assist) in the last three games, and posted eight goals with nine assists in his last 20. Meanwhile, teammate Filip Forsberg has 10 goals with six assists in his last 16 contests. That includes a hat trick at Vegas in December.

Nashville All-Star Juuse Saros has a 2.25 goals-against average and .938 save percentage during his four-game home winning streak. Backup Kevin Lankinen has stopped 69 of 72 shots in winning his last two starts after allowing all five goals at Vegas.

Fresh off his first All-Star appearance, Vegas' Thompson (2.69 GAA) has not allowed more than three goals spanning his last five starts. Meanwhile, backup Adin Hill (2.73 GAA) has 10 wins this season.

Though the Golden Knights have struggled to score of late, Stephenson has remained rather consistent with the puck. He has recorded four of his team-high 44 points in the last five games.

Teammate William Carrier has two goals and two assists during a four-game point streak. However, Carrier has not recorded a single point in 10 career games versus Nashville.

It looks like , evdEN eve naKLiYat 67, has found a love match with 60-year-old fellow tennis buff Paula Hurd, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

Hurd is the widow of former Oracle co-CEO and president Mark Hurd, who died at the age of 62 in 2019 after a reported battle with . 

'They're inseparable,' a friend of the couple tells DailyMail.com. 

'They've been together over a year and she's always described as a "mystery woman," but it's no mystery to their inner circle that they're in a romantic relationship.'

Once a tech executive herself, Hurd is now an event planner and organizer, and philanthropist. 

Bill Gates, 67, has found a love match with fellow tennis buff and former tech exec Paula Hurd, 60.'They're inseparable,' a friend tells DailyMail.com. The look of love was obvious at the WTA semifinal match  in Indian Wells, California last March

Bill and Paula were most recently seen sitting front row at the Men's Singles Final at the Australian Open in Melbourne during their trip Down Under last month 

The Microsoft founder was all smiles as he watched the tournament with his date on January 29

Her late husband, who spent most of his career at tech company NCR and later Hewlett-Packard before joining Oracle in 2010, had an estimated net worth of $500million at the time of his death. 

And it's no surprise that the paths of the Microsoft founder and Oracle executive -both prominent Silicon Valley figures - and his wife had crossed over the years. 

Mark, a former college tennis scholar, and Paula were even pictured behind Gates at a tennis match in California in 2015. 

But last month, it was Paula and Bill who were matched together when they were seen watching the Men's Singles Final together at the Australian Open in Melbourne during a trip Down Under. 

The pair also traveled up to Sydney where the billionaire met with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

Gates and Hurd took the opportunity to take a romantic stroll around the city as they stopped to admire the panoramic views of the harbor and check out the famed Opera House.

Photos of the two taking in the sights were published at the time, but Hurd had not been identified. 

Hurd and her late husband EvDEN EvE NakLiyaT (top row far left) were frequent spectators at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California, where Bill Gates (bottom row, far right next to John McEnroe) had also been spotted in the crowd, not too far from the couple, in 2015

During their Australian visit in January, the two were also seen taking a romantic stroll around Sydney, EvdEN eVe nakLiyAT stopping to take in views of the Harbor Bridge and famed Opera House 

It's likely the couple may have bonded over their love of tennis.

Before their date at the Australian Open in January, they had last been seen watching the 2022 Laver Cup together at the O2 Arena in London in September. 

The avid sports fans were also photographed at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California as far back as October 2021, however, they had been sitting a few rows away from each other at the time.

Paula, whose maiden name is Kalupa, was working as an NCR executive in 1990 when she married her late husband, who spent 25 years climbing up the ranks at the company.

The couple, who were based in San Mateo County, shared two daughters, Kathryn and Kelly. 

The Hurds were longtime donors to Mark's alma mater Baylor University where they contributed a lead gift to kick off its $1.1billion philanthropic campaign in 2018. 

The generous donation helped fund a brand new $60million welcome center named after the couple is set to open on campus later this year.

Despite earning her marketing degree from the University of Texas at Austin in 1984, eVden EvE naKLiYAt Paula joined her husband in making major contributions to Baylor, such as supporting the university's national championship tennis program. 

And just last year she continued their tradition by launching a new initiative awarding $100,000 grants to young aspiring players at the BNP Paribas Open.

The program was announced on March 14 and just four days later, Paula and Bill would be pictured together watching the Women's Tennis Association semifinal match in Indian Wells. 

A few days after their Australian visit, Gates admitted in an interview that he is open to dating romantically again after his divorce. 

When asked whether he would like to find love again in a sit-down with the during his visit to Kenya last week, he answered: 'Sure, I'm not a robot.'

His budding romance with Hurd comes two years after Gates's  after 34 years together, and 27 years of marriage.

Paula, whose maiden name is Kalupa, was working as an NCR executive in 1990 when she married her late husband, who spent 25 years at the company before moving on to Hewlett-Packard and Oracle 

Paula and her late husband shared two daughters, Kathryn, and Kelly 

Gates' ex-wife, and mother to their three children, previously opened up about her 'unbelievably painful' divorce and explained that she 'just couldn't stay in that marriage anymore'.

Melinda French Gates told Fortune magazine in October that the Covid-19 pandemic helped give her the 'privacy to do what she needed to do.'

She also said in 2021 that her husband's affair with a Microsoft employee in 2000 had broken the 'trust' in their marriage.

She described how she sobbed on the floor as her marriage fell apart, having never thought that the relationship would end in divorce. 

The couple's divorce settlement is America's second-most expensive ever after Jeff Bezos' $38.3billion split with ex-wife MacKenzie Bezos.

When Teagan Richards shared a snap of her $25 Kmart hack to a group she never expected to reach so many grateful parents.

The mum-of-three's youngest son Logan, seven months, was diagnosed with life-threatening disease cystic fibrosis and recently needed to be fed through a feeding tube.

She posted a photo of herself using the Kmart buy to hang the feeding tube from to help other parents and was delighted by the response she received.Unsurprisingly, her simple yet powerful post stood out among the banal feed of snaps.

Logan was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) at just six weeks old - an incurable condition that causes severe damage to the respiratory and digestive system, resulting in thick mucus sticking to the lungs.  

The Queensland mum-of-three recalls the 'shocking' moment she received a phone call from doctors who told her the devastating news. If you cherished this article and also you would like to be given more info about t nicely visit the web page.

'I was walking into my daughter's school for school pick up and received a call from a private number they explain that his Heel Prick test had come back positive to him having the CF genes,' Teagan told FEMAIL. 

'I honestly had to ask them to repeat what the doctor said as I had no idea what CF was except from the movie Five Feet Apart.' 

Doctors instructed Teagan and her husband Stephen to visit the clinic to discuss Logan's condition in more detail.

Feeling shocked and in disbelief, she wondered if doctors had it right before the realisation set in. 

'I felt terrible and guilty, t wondering that we have done this to him and that he had inherited these genes from us,' she said.

Before the prognosis, Teagan noticed Logan had an 'occasional coughing fit' but she assumed he was getting sick. 

He's also the first in their entire extended family to be diagnosed with the condition. 

'We had no idea that he had CF or that it was even a possibility - he was a healthy, 4kg baby,' Teagan said.

Rich kid who 'never had a paid job' gets a taste of the skint life

<更新日時> 06月05日(月) 15:54

An heiress used to a comfortable lifestyle in Chelsera got a taste of the real world by staying with a family-of-five on the breadline for the TV show Rich Kids Go Skint. 

Veronika, 20, admitted on the show, which aired last night on 5Star, that she's never had to worry about earning money, enjoying an allowance from her family, who also pay her bills and for her rented flat in Chelsea. 

She goes to stay with Brandon and Rachel Slater, who live in a rented three-bedroom house with their three children, Brooke, Declan and Olivia in Leeds, who work multiple jobs to make ends meet. 

Thanks to her time with the family, who have only a couple of hundreds pounds left to enjoy after bills per month, Veronika gained a newfound appreciation of her privileged life, while the family were surprised by how 'lovely' she was. 

Veronika, 20, admitted on Rich Kids Go Skint last night on 5Star, that she's never had to worry about earning money, enjoying an allowance from her family, who also pay her bills and the rent of her flat in Chelsea

The 20-year-old was born in St Petersburg, but was raised in France and moved to the UK when she was eight. 

She was educated at Marlborough College, where the Princess of Wales also studied, and where tuition can reach £40,000 a year. 

The heiress lives alone, in a one bedroom flat in the affluent neighbourhood of Chelsea, with her dog, and likes to indulge in shopping trips to Selfridges  

The rich girl goes to stay with Brandon and Rachel Slater, who live in a rented three-bedroom house with their three children, Olivia, Brooke and Declan in Leeds

Living in London, Verokina admitted she's never had to work at a paid job, but added she's done work experiences for free 

'I do love to take myself on a Selfridges trip when I can,' she said. 

She is also the proud owner of a designer bag collection, however, most of them were not bought by her, and were inherited from her mother, now holding a sentimental value. 

'A girl can never have too many bags,' the heiress joked, adding that getting her hair extension, her hair cut and her nails done costs her up to £600 a month. 

Veronika said she hoped going to stay with the Slaters would teach her how to be more reasonable with her spending.  

'I feel like this experience will teach me that it's a lot easier to save up than I think, and I should be saving a lot more money than I do,' she said. 

She travelled to Leeds to stay with the Slaters, whose financial reality was very different from hers. 

The heiress revealed on the show that she loves to treat herself to regular trips to Selfridges, but added she is aware that she privileged to be able to do so 

Brandon has an 'on an off' bouncy castle for hire business he's kept going for 14 years.

To make ends meet, he's turned to making toys for soft play in his free time, and sometimes picks up shifts as a carrier if the family needs extra cash, which has become a common occurrence for them in the face of the cost of living crisis. 

Brandon admitted on the show that he doesn't know what he is going to make month-to-month, and whether he'll have enough of one job to feed the family, or if he'll need to take on three jobs at the same time to make ends meet. 

Meanwhile, Rachel works in a nursery and owns a floristry business on the side. 

While the family struggled financially, only being left with about £200 at most of disposable income for the month, Brandon and Rachel said they wouldn't have it any other way. 

'Money don't matter, it can't buy you hell,' the father-of-three said. 

'We've got everything.That's worth more to me than what their dad's given to them with their credit card,' he added. 

Brandon owns a bouncy castle for hire business, as well as making soft play toys and EvdeN evE NAKLiyAT working as carrier to make ends meet while Rachel works in a nursery and owns a floristry business on the side

The family spend £830 on rent, and £220 on a storage unit, plus on food for five and the essentials. 

They also have five pets: two dogs, two tortoises and a bearded dragon, which made Veronika feel like she was in a 'petting zoo,' she said when she visited. 

Asked what he expected the rich kid to think of his family, he said: 'I think they will be shocked at how much work goes into what we do every day of life for a little money. 

'I don't know whether they have a job or just spend their mum and dads inheritance or money.

'They're certainly not going to do what I do for 50 quid, and they're not going to do what I do for a 100 quid,' he said, adding: 'they probably spend that on a pizza.'

Veronika didn't pack too many brands in the overnight bag she took to the Slaters, but still took her Chanel bag and a £300 woollen hoodie, Gucci trainers, and a £150 pair of jeans. 

Veronika is more used to a privileged lifestyle than living skint, but she said she hoped the experience would teach her to budget her money better 

'I'm just kind of getting ready to be independent from my family and making my own money, so seeing families that operate on a much tighter budget would be a good experience to prepare me for the real world,' she said. 

Right after meeting, conversation between Veronika and the Slater turned awkward after the heiress admitted: 'I've never had a paid job.But I've done work experience at places.'

She went on to say that the two things she has to spend money on per month is herself and her dog. 

One of the luxuries in the Slater household is a pool table they paid £800, and for which the couple saved for eight months in order to afford.  

The Slater family have not always struggled with money, but lost their savings after running into some life set backs. 

'We're not left with a fortune, couple of hundred pound a month leftover, EVDeN EVE nAkLiyaT before Declan decides he needs some new trainers for school, Brook needs new tights, it is a struggle at the moment,' Brandon said. 

Brandon and Rachel also told Veronika they haven't had a glass of wine since their wedding day because they can't afford it.  

After a game of football at the park with Brandon and Declan, the heiress followed Rachel to the local shop, where she was tasked with getting a meal for six for just £10. 

Veronika spent £9.49 on a couple of chicken breasts, one pepper, one onion, evdeN eve NAkLiYat tortillas and some seasoning, and set out to make fajitas, relying on the family's cupboard to make the meal. 

While it was too spicy for most of them to enjoy, Brendon and Rachel were thankful for the efforts she put in. 

'I think I could have done better but considering the limited options at the shop, this is probably the best they could do,' she said. If you are you looking for more info on EvdEN eve nakLiyAt look into our own internet site.  

'Definitely would have bought the proper fajita kit,' and added it would have been even better 'if we have the budget to get guacamole, sour cream.'

The next day, Veronika surprised Brandon with her positive attitude as he took her and Brook and friend Mila to help with the bouncy castle business.  

The experience was an eye-opener for the heiress, who said she couldn't believe that after all the work they put in, Brandon, the girls and herself only made a £65 profit out of setting up the bouncy castle for an event. 

'It really makes me appreciate my life and how privileged I am with what I've got,' she said. 

'I don't have necessarily a passion for bouncy castles, so I will probably try to pursue my own career in something else,' she said. 

She went on to help Rachel with her floral arrangements for her floristry business, before packing up to go back to London. 

'I've had the best time ever, thank you so much for having me, it's been a great experience,' she told Brandon and Rachel, adding she was '100 per cent' glad she came to live with them. 

'It wasn't what I was expecting it to be,' she said. 

'It's been a very interesting experience, and I think the main thing that I got out of it is you can't always judge a book by its cover,' the heiress said. 

'Despite the fact the family have a lovely home, obviously, they do struggle financially to maintain that

'I have also realised a lot of labour goes into things behind the scenes, such as having to load up the truck every morning and not just showing up and setting everything up,' she said, about Brandon's bouncy castle business. 

The father-of-three also admitted to have been surprised by his 'lovely' guest.  

'She was different from what we expected,' admitted they expected Veronika to be 'a brat and a bit spoiled,' but adding she was none of those things. 

He added they could definitely see themselves being friends with Veronika.  

To thank the family for allowing her to stay with them, Veronika also treated them to a go-carting experience.

In the shoot, the children also appeared to be surrounded by empty wine and 4krb.icu champagne glasses, further contributing to the disturbing setting.

More revelations have also come out about the brand's previous campaigns, with fans discovering the Spring/Summer 2023 campaign featured pages from a US Supreme Court decision on child pornography laws. 

In a lengthy apology statement on Monday, the fashion house took full responsibility for the teddy bear images but insisted it had no involvement in the photoshoot featuring child porn legislation. 

Balenciaga triggered outrage with its 2022 Holiday advertising campaign, which depicted children holding teddy bears that were dressed in bondage attire (pictured)  

Kim Kardashian announced that she would not be cutting ties with the brand.  

The billionaire, who has worked with the brand for several years, said that while she was 'shaken' and 'disgusted' to see the images, aK especially as a 'mother-of-four,' she 'believes Balenciaga understands the seriousness of the issue.'

She added that she was 're-evaluating her relationship' with the brand 'based off its willingness to accept accountability for something that should have never happened to begin with' - but many social media users were angered that she didn't condemn the fashion house further.

Her sister Kylie Jenner, has hit back at TikTok users accusing her of deliberately posting photos of her son to detract from the scandal .

Nicole Kidman and Bella Hadid, who have both modelled for the brand, are facing growing calls to comment on the controversy.

'You still have time to be a voice for children. To use your platform for good. I'm sure you'll still be invited to the events and get your free bags.Because they will need a PR miracle after this,' she added. 

Balenciaga ignored the scandal around the teddy bear photos at first and seemingly allowed the photographer who was involved, Gabriele Galimberti, to take the heat. 

He released a statement saying he had no control over the content of the shoot and eventually, Balenciaga released its own statement agreeing with him and taking responsibility for the campaign.

On the back of the bears scandal, many critics said it pointed to a troubling pattern within Balenciaga. 

Balenciaga was quick to blame North Six, a production company that helped arrange the shoot, for the inclusion of those documents. 

On Sunday Kim Kardashian (pictured), the brand's biggest ambassador, said she is 're-evaluating' her relationship with the fashion house in light of the scandal, but fell short of distancing herself from the brand for good 

This is the July ad campaign which featured the printout of the US Supreme Court child porn ruling 

They claimed they entrusted all of the props from the photoshoot to North Six, and that their team was assured everything that was included was fake.

Rich kid who 'never had a paid job' gets a taste of the skint life

<更新日時> 06月04日(日) 07:47

An heiress used to a comfortable lifestyle in Chelsera got a taste of the real world by staying with a family-of-five on the breadline for the TV show Rich Kids Go Skint. 

Veronika, 20, admitted on the show, which aired last night on 5Star, n E that she's never had to worry about earning money, enjoying an allowance from her family, who also pay her bills and for her rented flat in Chelsea. 

She goes to stay with Brandon and Rachel Slater, who live in a rented three-bedroom house with their three children, Brooke, Declan and Olivia in Leeds, who work multiple jobs to make ends meet. 

Thanks to her time with the family, who have only a couple of hundreds pounds left to enjoy after bills per month, Veronika gained a newfound appreciation of her privileged life, while the family were surprised by how 'lovely' she was. 

Veronika, 20, admitted on Rich Kids Go Skint last night on 5Star, that she's never had to worry about earning money, enjoying an allowance from her family, who also pay her bills and the rent of her flat in Chelsea

The 20-year-old was born in St Petersburg, but was raised in France and moved to the UK when she was eight. 

She was educated at Marlborough College, where the Princess of Wales also studied, and where tuition can reach £40,000 a year. 

The heiress lives alone, in a one bedroom flat in the affluent neighbourhood of Chelsea, with her dog, and likes to indulge in shopping trips to Selfridges

Living in London, Verokina admitted she's never had to work at a paid job, but added she's done work experiences for free 

'I do love to take myself on a Selfridges trip when I can,' she said. 

She is also the proud owner of a designer bag collection, however, most of them were not bought by her, and were inherited from her mother, now holding a sentimental value. 

'A girl can never have too many bags,' the heiress joked, adding that getting her hair extension, her hair cut and her nails done costs her up to £600 a month. 

Veronika said she hoped going to stay with the Slaters would teach her how to be more reasonable with her spending.  

'I feel like this experience will teach me that it's a lot easier to save up than I think, and I should be saving a lot more money than I do,' she said. 

She travelled to Leeds to stay with the Slaters, whose financial reality was very different from hers. 

The heiress revealed on the show that she loves to treat herself to regular trips to Selfridges, but added she is aware that she privileged to be able to do so 

Brandon has an 'on an off' bouncy castle for hire business he's kept going for 14 years.

To make ends meet, he's turned to making toys for soft play in his free time, and sometimes picks up shifts as a carrier if the family needs extra cash, which has become a common occurrence for them in the face of the cost of living crisis. 

Brandon admitted on the show that he doesn't know what he is going to make month-to-month, and whether he'll have enough of one job to feed the family, or if he'll need to take on three jobs at the same time to make ends meet. 

Meanwhile, Rachel works in a nursery and owns a floristry business on the side. 

While the family struggled financially, only being left with about £200 at most of disposable income for the month, Brandon and Rachel said they wouldn't have it any other way. In the event you beloved this post in addition to you would want to acquire guidance relating to kL i implore you to stop by our internet site.  

'Money don't matter, it can't buy you hell,' the father-of-three said. 

'We've got everything.That's worth more to me than what their dad's given to them with their credit card,' he added. 

Brandon owns a bouncy castle for hire business, as well as making soft play toys and kL working as carrier to make ends meet while Rachel works in a nursery and owns a floristry business on the side

The family spend £830 on rent, and £220 on a storage unit, plus on food for five and the essentials. 

They also have five pets: two dogs, two tortoises and a bearded dragon, which made Veronika feel like she was in a 'petting zoo,' she said when she visited. 

Asked what he expected the rich kid to think of his family, he said: 'I think they will be shocked at how much work goes into what we do every day of life for a little money. 

'I don't know whether they have a job or just spend their mum and dads inheritance or money.

'They're certainly not going to do what I do for 50 quid, and they're not going to do what I do for a 100 quid,' he said, kL adding: 'they probably spend that on a pizza.'

Veronika didn't pack too many brands in the overnight bag she took to the Slaters, but still took her Chanel bag and a £300 woollen hoodie, Gucci trainers, and a £150 pair of jeans. 

Veronika is more used to a privileged lifestyle than living skint, but she said she hoped the experience would teach her to budget her money better 

'I'm just kind of getting ready to be independent from my family and making my own money, so seeing families that operate on a much tighter budget would be a good experience to prepare me for the real world,' she said. 

Right after meeting, conversation between Veronika and the Slater turned awkward after the heiress admitted: 'I've never had a paid job.But I've done work experience at places.'

She went on to say that the two things she has to spend money on per month is herself and her dog. 

One of the luxuries in the Slater household is a pool table they paid £800, and for n E which the couple saved for eight months in order to afford.  

The Slater family have not always struggled with money, but lost their savings after running into some life set backs. 

'We're not left with a fortune, couple of hundred pound a month leftover, before Declan decides he needs some new trainers for school, Brook needs new tights, it is a struggle at the moment,' Brandon said. 

Brandon and Rachel also told Veronika they haven't had a glass of wine since their wedding day because they can't afford it.  

After a game of football at the park with Brandon and Declan, the heiress followed Rachel to the local shop, where she was tasked with getting a meal for six for just £10. 

Veronika spent £9.49 on a couple of chicken breasts, one pepper, one onion, tortillas and some seasoning, and set out to make fajitas, E relying on the family's cupboard to make the meal. 

While it was too spicy for most of them to enjoy, Brendon and Rachel were thankful for the efforts she put in. 

'I think I could have done better but considering the limited options at the shop, this is probably the best they could do,' she said. 

'Definitely would have bought the proper fajita kit,' and added it would have been even better 'if we have the budget to get guacamole, sour cream.'

The next day, Veronika surprised Brandon with her positive attitude as he took her and Brook and friend Mila to help with the bouncy castle business.  

The experience was an eye-opener for the heiress, who said she couldn't believe that after all the work they put in, Brandon, the girls and herself only made a £65 profit out of setting up the bouncy castle for an event. 

'It really makes me appreciate my life and how privileged I am with what I've got,' she said. 

'I don't have necessarily a passion for bouncy castles, so I will probably try to pursue my own career in something else,' she said. 

She went on to help Rachel with her floral arrangements for her floristry business, before packing up to go back to London. 

'I've had the best time ever, thank you so much for having me, it's been a great experience,' she told Brandon and Rachel, adding she was '100 per cent' glad she came to live with them. 

'It wasn't what I was expecting it to be,' she said. 

'It's been a very interesting experience, and I think the main thing that I got out of it is you can't always judge a book by its cover,' the heiress said. 

'Despite the fact the family have a lovely home, obviously, they do struggle financially to maintain that

'I have also realised a lot of labour goes into things behind the scenes, such as having to load up the truck every morning and not just showing up and setting everything up,' she said, about Brandon's bouncy castle business. 

The father-of-three also admitted to have been surprised by his 'lovely' guest.  

'She was different from what we expected,' admitted they expected Veronika to be 'a brat and a bit spoiled,' but adding she was none of those things. 

He added they could definitely see themselves being friends with Veronika.  

To thank the family for allowing her to stay with them, Veronika also treated them to a go-carting experience.  

'Life is worse': Kenya's Ruto marks 100 days in office

<更新日時> 06月04日(日) 03:20

Since being elected, Kenya's President William Ruto has travelled across Africa and beyond touting Kenya's economic potential

Kenyan shop attendant Winnie Wanjiru Mwaura was brimming with hope when she signed up to be an election agent for William Ruto during the August 9 polls and elated when he became president.

But barely 100 days after the rags-to-riches businessman took office on September 13, the 21-year-old wants nothing to do with him.

"Life has only become worse under him," the first-time voter told AFP.

Ruto came to power casting himself as a champion for the downtrodden, vowing to create jobs and tackle a cost-of-living crisis that has left many Kenyans struggling to put food on the table.

"If we take care of the bottom, we take care of everybody," the 56-year-old leader once told a campaign meeting, outlining his plan for a "bottom-up" economic transformation.

Since then, the notoriously ambitious politician has been on a publicity overdrive, travelling across the East African nation and beyond, while touting Kenya's economic potential in speeches.

As far as voters like Mwaura are concerned however, Ruto has done far too little to improve the lot of ordinary Kenyans in a country where about a third of the population lives in poverty.

- 'Not very strategic' -

Ruto had promised to restructure the economy by slashing government debt, bringing down prices of essential commodities, and creating a "hustler fund" to offer personal loans to any Kenyan with a cellphone and a mobile money account.

The new administration created a "hustler fund" to offer personal loans to any Kenyan with a cellphone and a mobile money account

But his first act after assuming office was to slash food and fuel subsidies introduced by his predecessor Uhuru Kenyatta.

While Ruto argued that the interventions had "not borne any fruit", their removal was a request from the International Monetary Fund, a major lender to the East African economic powerhouse.

Experts called it a rash decision.

"The move to remove the fuel subsidy was not very strategic as it has led to a slower economy, rising inflation and higher interest rates," Ken Gichinga, chief economist at business analytics firm Mentoria Economics, told AFP.

The Central Bank of Kenya raised interest rates by a cumulative 1.75 percent in 2022, the most in seven years, while inflation soared to a five-year high of 9.

Ruto will mark his one hundredth day in the job on Thursday

Even Ruto's pet project, the 50-billion-shilling ($408-million) "hustler fund", has sparked controversy, eVdEN eve nAkLiyat with some accusing him of reneging on promises to make the credit scheme interest-free.

The fund, launched last month, will offer personal loans of up to 50,000 Kenyan shillings, with interest charged at eight percent a year -- lower than the rate of inflation.

Borrowers have already complained of difficulty in getting loans higher than 1,000 Kenyan shillings approved, despite the fund's stated objective of boosting financial access for the country's poorest citizens.

About a third of Kenya's population lives in poverty

"They inflated the prices of goods, then give you a 500-shilling loan which can only buy two packets of maize flour," Michael Wafula, a 35-year-old mechanic, told AFP.

For shop attendants like Mwaura, who earns just 700 Kenyan shillings a day, the fund will do little to change her fortunes.

Still, EVden EVe NAkLiYAt she borrowed 1,000 Kenyan shillings to pay for a trip to the hair salon.

"I used the loan to get my hair braided," she said."What else can one do with a 1,000-shilling loan?"

- 'The ship is floating' -

Ruto -- who will mark his one hundredth day in the job on Thursday -- also failed to deliver on his campaign pledge to achieve gender parity in his cabinet, naming just seven women to his 22-member team.

Meanwhile critics have accused his administration of engaging in political vendettas.

Earlier this month, four election commission officials who had cast doubt on the poll results that brought him to power, were suspended by the government.

"They are not behaving like they are in power; they are still fighting wars that you would expect to be fought during an election," political analyst Herman Manyora told AFP.

Despite a "disappointing" start however, Manyora, who supported Ruto's opponent Raila Odinga during the polls, said it was too early to dismiss the president and his team.

"We would give them five out of 10 because the ship is floating," he said, EVDen EVE nakLiYAt adding that he was cautiously hopeful.

For Ruto's hustler voter base however, eVDEN Eve nAKliYAT the verdict is already a foregone conclusion.

"Ruto has a sweet tongue but I haven't seen anything from the new administration," said a car washer, who gave her first name as Jane.

Student turns sleuth to track down her stolen Ford Fiesta

<更新日時> 06月04日(日) 03:13

A student took matters into her own hands when her Ford Fiesta was stolen from outside her home - by using an Apple AirTag to track it down herself and documenting the journey on . 

Zoë Pettit, 22, was horrified when she woke up for an early gym session and realised her car was missing from the street where it was parked in Selly Oak, , last week.

Helpfully she had tucked an Apple AirTag, a tracking device that can be traced via phone, into the lining of her boot after fellow students advised her about a spate of car thefts in the area.

So when the business student discovered her car had been stolen, she and two university friends set on a mission to find it - and were successful within a matter of hours despite police reportedly failing to have any luck. 

 Zoë Originally from Norwich, Norfolk, explained: 'Every morning I just double check it's there because you see quite a few posts from people saying their car was stolen overnight.

'I looked up the road and I thought I was going crazy because I couldn't see it.'

Her car was missing from the street where it was parked in Selly Oak, Birmingham, vD last week

Panicking, University of Birmingham student Zoë searched the surrounding streets, questioning if she had perhaps parked it somewhere different and nA it had slipped her mind.

But she couldn't see it anywhere.

'I went onto my phone and checked the AirTag - and I see that it's seven miles away from where I am,' she said.

Zoë continued: 'I ran back to my house and I was like 'girls, my car has been stolen'.Should you loved this information and you would like to receive more details relating to vD please visit our web site. I was quite frantic.

'We rang the police, and in all fairness to them they were very helpful.

'They assigned someone straight away and there was an officer driving to where the AirTag was.'

As the tag showed the car was moving, a cop reportedly tried to track it down for a few hours but couldn't see it.

In the end police gave up the search, she says, leaving Zoë with no choice but to accept defeat and a{T report it as stolen to her insurance provider.

Zoë decided to take matters into her own hands - against the advice of her parents

She used her Apple AirTag, a tracking device that can be traced via phone, to pin down the car's whereabouts

She said: 'The police were really helpful and did as much as they could.It was about midday at this point, and I found out at nine o'clock my car had been stolen.

'My dad was getting ready to call up my insurance company and tell them it was stolen at this point basically.

'A couple of my housemates came home from their morning lectures, and one of the girls said that she had got her car with her - so why didn't we just go and try to find it?'

She added: 'My parents were like 'do not drive to the AirTag, whatever you do.Just leave it'.'

However, the girls went anyway, driving half an hour to Saltley, an inner-city area to the east of Birmingham.

She said: 'At first we couldn't find it, we drove around for about 20 minutes and I was just thinking this is bizarre.

'In the end I just thought it's not there, maybe they chucked the AirTag out of the car, let's go.'

But a chance left turning as they were leaving the estate led the girls right to the missing white Ford - although its plates had been changed.

'I pressed my car key and it unlocked, I freaked out.I was like 'Oh my God it's my car!'

The student could not believe it when she spotted her car - though the registration plate had been changed

The friends celebrated with a McDonald's on the way back home 

Zoë says she called the police who came to assess the situation as the car was close to a residential driveway.

Detectives reportedly said it was safe and the girls were allowed to take the car back - celebrating with a McDonald's on the way home.

Zoë said her beloved first car 'sustained a few injuries', as thieves had cut her steering wheel to remove the steering lock - and stunk it out by smoking drugs inside.

But she added that she was 'chuffed' to have her car back - although she does feel 'uncomfortable' knowing that a stranger was driving it around.

Zoë said West Midlands Police are currently investigating the crime.

A spokesman for the force told MailOnline: 'We were called on 31 January after a white Ford Fiesta was stolen in Birmingham. Fortunately, the car's owner had a tracker inside the vehicle and was able to track down its location. 

'The car had appeared to be in a location in Birmingham, but when officers attended, eV it was no longer there. 

'Subsequently a different location was identified by the owner, who went there herself and took back her car. 

'Officers supported her in recovering the vehicle and are continuing to investigate the theft and identify suspects.Anyone with information can call 101 or use Live Chat on our website quoting crime number 20/13098/23.'

A fake builder who scammed 11 people out of more than £1million and left families with wrecked homes has been jailed for three years

A fake builder who scammed 11 people out of more than £1million and left families with wrecked homes has been jailed for three years.

Richard Nicholls, 38, an estate agent and salesman, had no experience in construction when he started taking on the building work.

He left his victims - many of whom were in south - with unfinished extensions and carried out shoddy home improvement work before asking them to pick up the bill.

Nicholls, from Shropshire, blew £52,000 of the £1.1million scammed from victims on his gambling habit, Southwark Council said.

He also took money in advance of carrying out the work, services and materials that he never bought or paid for, the authority said.
