Phoenix, Columbus Eliminated From RNC Convention…
The Republican National Committee trimmed its list of potential 2016 convention sites to a half dozen on Tuesday, eliminating Phoenix and Columbus, Ohio from contention. That leaves Cincinnati and Cleveland in Ohio, along with Dallas, Denver, Kansas City, Mo., and Las Vegas advancing to the next round for further evaluation, which will include site visits. “In any other year, Columbus and Phoenix could have topped the list, but with so many strong cities competing, the committee had to make the difficult decision to narrow the field,” said RNC Site SelectionRead More
Female candidates could win big in 2014.

The 1995 film Waterworld was one of Hollywood’s most infamous budget busters – a mega-million-dollar post-apocalyptic thriller that, at the time, cost more than any other film ever made. It did a pretty decent job of sinking Kevin Costner’s career for the rest of the decade. More importantly, it may also have helped do the same to the idea of mankind living on the sea. Though scientists aren’t predicting sea-level rises of the magnitude seen in Waterworld – hundreds of feet thanks to melting polar ice caps – we mayRead More
Prom dress shopping perilous for plus-size girls
NEW YORK — Maria Giorno has nothing against long gowns with high waists and flowing fabric — dresses that are designed to camouflage curves on plus-size women. But the New Jersey high school senior had no interest in buying a loose-fitting style for her senior prom, even though it was all she could find in a size 16 or so at nearby stores.
