If you’ve ever taken the subway in New York in the summer, you know there’s a 99% chance you’ll be riding in a smelly, crowded, overheated metal tube with a weirdo and/or sleeping homeless guy. But Insta-hottie Ashley Graves just made a few lucky New Yorkers’ subway rides a whole lot more exciting by hitting the subway in a tiny bikini. Although these pictures are so damn hot, I wouldn’t be surprised if it blew the cars’ A/C out. You know, assuming it was working to begin with, that is. Enjoy!

The drowning of 2-year-old Lane Graves by an alligator at Walt Disney World’s Grand Floridian Resort still haunts members of the public two months later. On the evening of June 14th, Graves was wading in the shallow waters of Seven Seas Lagoon, Disney’s man-made lake when an alligator snatched and dragged him underwater . The little boy’s body was found by divers six feet under water the next day, just 10-15 feet away from where he was attacked. Radar Online obtained a copy of the full autopsy , which rules the death as an “accident” and notes that Graves sustained fatal injuries to his “neck, scalp and skull.” Graves, whose family was enjoying a movie night on the beach, was “dressed in a pair of blue shorts” with a disposable diaper underneath, “worn with a short-sleeved T-shirt emblemized with the American flag.” The most severe injuries, according to the report, were around Graves’ head. “The right side of the scalp,” the coroner noted, revealed “a vertically-oriented laceration measuring 2.3 x 0.3 cm.” with “a maximal depth of 0.4 cm. “The skin on the left side of the hair-bearing scalp in the parietal region has two recent puncture wounds.” Graves’ skull was fractured, and the coroner found “abrasions on his eyelid, eyebrow and jaw.” He concluded that Graves “died as the result of cranio-cervical trauma and drowning.” The alligator was eventually caught and killed by authorities. Even though there is no swimming permitted in the lagoon, signs did not warn resort guests that alligators, snakes and other dangerous animals inhabited the waters. Prior to the accident, lounge chairs would be set up on the beach for people to sunbathe, and the resort also hosted movie nights, like the one the Nebraska-based Graves took part in before their son was killed. Graves’ father, Matt tried to wrestle the boy out of the jaws of the alligator, but it was too late. We continue to keep the Graves family in our thoughts.
The unthinkable happened to Matt and Melissa Graves on June 14th, and now they have to return home to Nebraska without their son. The parents, who attempted to rescue their two-year-old, Lane Graves from the mouth of an alligator, gave their first statement today. “Words cannot describe the shock and grief our family is experiencing over the loss of our son,” the couple said, according to ABC News. “We are devastated and ask for privacy during this extremely difficult time. To all of the local authorities and staff who worked tirelessly these past 24 hours, we express our deepest gratitude.” At 9:16 on Wednesday night, the Graves were on the beach of the Grand Floridian Hotel in Walt Disney World for a movie night. Graves waded into the man-made lake, even though “No Swimming” signs were posted. Then, an alligator came from the lake and snatched the little boy , dragging him into water. Tireless search-and-rescue efforts from first responders, law enforcement and Disney employees eventually found the body of the boy at around 1:45 on Tuesday afternoon. Save for a few puncture wounds, authorities confirmed, his body was in tact. What’s even more disturbing is that the body was located about ten to fifteen feet from where he was taken, under six feet of water. Fellow resort guest Jennifer Venditti Roye posted photos of her own son, who waded in the water at the exact same location on the beach an hour earlier, to Facebook. Venditti Roye did this to hit back at the online trolls who have been tormeting Graves’ parents for ignoring the “No Swimming” signs. “There is a time to be critical when parents are doing drugs and their children get hurt,” Venditti Roye told People Magazine. “But this is just not the time. It’s heartbreaking .” The mom to three-year-old Channing said the accident hit way too close to home for her. “It could have been [my son],” she admitted. “We had been there every night. What a tragedy.” “Not at all did that cross my mind that there would be alligators in that area,” she said. “There were tons of families just roasting marshmallows. The Grand Floridian had provided the activity for kids, right there on the beach,” Venditti Roye explained. “And the water was just ankle deep. Where that beach is – it’s a small cove, so central, with the resort area built around it. There’s a pool nearby. It’s well-lit. Well-traveled. Not off the beaten path where you think anything would be lurking. “I never would have dreamed in a million years that there would have been an alligator there.” The Facebook post has been shared over 150,000 times. “I can’t help but wonder if we played with him,” she wrote. “Did I talk to his Mom? How does one go home without your baby in tow? PRAY, PRAY so hard for the family & for those who witnessed this tragic event.”
Dutch Caretakers Remember Fallen Americans Who Died Battling Nazis In World War II We were so touched by this story of the Dutch families who continue to care for the graves of American soldiers who were buried in Margraten after being killed fighting Nazis. Via MSN reports : For 70 years, the Dutch have come to a verdant U.S. cemetery outside this small village to care for the graves of Americans killed in World War II. On Sunday, they came again, bearing Memorial Day bouquets for men and women they never knew, but whose 8,300 headstones the people of the Netherlands have adopted as their own. For the American relatives of the fallen, it was an outpouring of gratitude almost as stunning as the rows of white marble crosses and Jewish Stars of David at the Netherlands American Cemetery. Each grave has been adopted by a Dutch or, in some cases, Belgian or German family, as well as local schools, companies and military organizations. More than 100 people are on a waiting list to become caretakers. At the cemetery’s annual commemoration, 6,000 people poured onto the 65-acre burial grounds just a few miles from the German border, including scores of descendants of American war dead who had traveled here from all over the United States. They were eager to pay tribute to parents or grandparents who had died to defeat the Nazis. But they also wanted to thank the Dutch families who had been tending the graves of their loved ones, often passing the responsibility from one generation to the next. For Arthur Chotin, 70, who had come from Annapolis, Md., to finally meet the couple caring for his father’s resting place, the devotion of the Dutch was a source of awe. “What would cause a nation recovering from losses and trauma of their own to adopt the sons and daughters of another nation?” asked Chotin, the only American descendant to speak on Sunday. “And what would keep that commitment alive for all of these years, when the memory of that war has begun to fade? It is a unique occurrence in the history of civilization. ” This is just an excerpt, but we encourage you to read the full article which shares some pretty touching stories about the families who have loved ones buried in the Margraten cemetery as well as those who care for their graves.

Former Vice-President Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz seem to think so… Former Vice President Dick Cheney praised the Obama administration Sunday for using a drone strike to kill American-born Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, but said President Barack Obama should now reverse past criticism of former President George W. Bush’s actions against suspected terrorists. Al-Awlaki — an American whose fluency in English and technology made him one of the top terrorist recruiters in the world — was killed Friday in Yemen, according to U.S. and Yemeni government officials. The strike also killed Samir Khan, an American of Pakistani origin, and two others who were in the same vehicle as al-Awlaki, said the U.S. official, who was briefed by the CIA. Khan specialized in computer programming for al Qaeda and authored the terror network’s online magazine, Inspire. “I think it was a very good strike. I think it was justified,” Cheney told CNN’s Candy Crowley on “State of the Union.” But “I’m waiting for the administration to go back and correct something they said two years ago when they criticized us for ‘overreacting’ to the events of 9/11.” To further his argument Chaney and his daughter Liz go on to say: The Obama administration has “clearly … moved in the direction of taking robust action when they feel it is justified,” Cheney said. Cheney’s daughter, Liz Cheney, went a step further, saying Obama “in effect said that we had walked away from (America’s) ideals.” “I think he did tremendous damage,” Liz Cheney said. “I think he slandered the nation and I think he owes an apology to the American people.” What say you? Has Barack Obama proved to be a hypocrite? Source
