‘RHOAS11’ Recap: Porsha Plans Surprise Girls Trip To Cheer NeNe Up

Continued here:

Source: Bravo / Getty Real Housewives of Atlanta is back for its 11th season! Can you believe it? Eleven years of ratchet peaches. Cynthia, Kandi, Porsha, and Nene are back—and so is Eva, who officially got her peach. Eva is in wedding planning mode, Kandi is gallivanting in LA with Xscape, busy winning ASCAP Awards, Cynthia has a new boyfriend who lives in LA (the Fox News sportscaster, Mike Hill) and Porsha got a new man too. We all know by now that Porsha is engaged , but we get to watch it play out this season. In case you didn’t know, her man is Dennis McKinley, an entrepreneur who owns several lounges and the Original Hot Dog Factory . It’s quite clear that he’s loaded and he’s taking Porsha ring shopping. They’re going on a trip to Miami for Porsha’s birthday. Nene and Gregg are dealing with Gregg having stage 3 colon cancer. Nene is obviously a wreck but she’s standing by her hubby. Gregg is committed to fighting the good fight post surgery and so far so good but as a lot of us know, when it comes to cancer, they’re taking things day by day. In happier news, Nene and Porsha’s friendship is back in a good place. Nene helps Porsha find some clothes for her birthday trip, and Porsha does the most to make Nene laugh. It’s cute. Porsha then learns that Nene will be in Miami at the same time doing a comedy show so you know what that means, right? Girls trip! Actually, it’s going to be a surprise girls trip. Porsha calls the girls, even Kandi and invites them down with the intention of surprising Nene. Even Marlo is coming. But as we all know, things are still awkward between Porsha and Kandi and Porsha and Marlo also don’t get along. We’ll see how these dramaful (yes, dramaful) events start to unfold next week. Kenya isn’t returning, but she and her husband recently welcomed a healthy baby girl to the world. Hopefully, we’ll be seeing some of this in cameo appearances. Speaking of baby bumps, hopefully, we’ll be seeing Shamea back on the show (they really need to give her a peach, but whatevs) and of course, we’ll be introduced to newbie satellite friends Shomari DeVoe and Tanya Sam.

New MacBook Air, iPad Pro & Mac Mini Unveiled At Apple Brooklyn Event

Source: Stephanie Keith / Getty Led by Tim Cook, Apple ditched its usual Cupertino Campus location and brought its act to Brooklyn to unveil the company’s worst kept secret—the new environmentally safe MacBook Air, iPad Pro, and Mac Mini models. Techies and Apple fans flocked to BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) which is conveniently located next to Apple’s newest state of the art store to get the first glimpse of Apple’s new line of products. New MacBook Air The MacBook Air was in dire need of need of a proper upgrade or a replacement, and this new model is what people have been waiting for. The new MacBook Air is 2.75 pounds making it lighter than its predecessor which weighed 2.96 pounds. It features a 50 percent thinner bezel, retina display, 13.3-inch display, two USB-C ports, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Basically, it’s now a MacBook Pro in MacBook Air body minus the touch bar. It now has Touch ID for secure logins and is powered by the T2 series chip which is also found in last year’s MacBook Pro and iMac Pro. Inside it ships with up to 16GB of RAM, and 1.5TB SSD alongside a powerful 8th Gen Intel dual-core CPU with integrated graphics. The base model of the MacBook Air comes with 8GB RAM, a 1.6GHz Core i5, and a 128GB SSD and is on sale for $1,199 starting today. New Mac Mini The Mac Mini hasn’t seen an upgrade since 2014 so its safe to say this has been a long time coming. While the new Mac Mini may look the same on the outside, it is boasting some significant upgrades on the inside. The new model now has a quad-core 8th Gen Intel processor, and a six-core Intel Core i7 model. Another significant change from the previous model is the new Mac Mini will support up to 64GB of RAM with every model featuring flash storage with up to 2TB of space. Like the new MacBook Air model, it will also have the T2 security chip and will be modernized thanks to having a bevy of new ports. On the back of the new Mac Mini, there are Ethernet, HDMI, two USB-A ports and our USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports. Starting at $799 the base model goes on sale November 7th and will ship with a quad-core Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB RAM, and 128GB of SSD storage with room for configuration. New iPad Pro Last but certainly not least the new iPad Pro which is apparently the next device not called the iPhone where Apple is putting most of its attention into. The long-rumored new model sports a complete redesign with a much more slimmed-down look, Face ID, USB-C port ditching the lightning connector. Also gone from the new model is the classic home button meaning it now utilizes the gesture navigation first introduced with the iPhone X as well as Face ID and the TrueDepth camera setup. The new iPad Pro comes in two sizes 11 inches ($799) and 12.9 inches ($999) that sports Liquid Retina Display alongside Apple’s ProMotion technology that will provide smooth and fluid display performance. Thanks to Apple’s new A12X Bionic chip with an 8-core CPU and 7-core GPU the new iPad Pro boasts 35 percent faster single-core performance as well as a significant 90 percent bump in speed for performing multicore tasks. The headphone jack is now gone, and if you want to use wired headphones, you will have to purchase a USB-C to headphone dongle. If you’re into gaming on your tablet, the new iPad Pro is the way to go because it boasts “Xbox One S class graphics performance in a package that is much smaller” thanks to its powerful GPU according to Apple’s Jon Ternus. Alongside the iPad Pro a redesigned Apple Pencil ($129 ) that features new touch gestures and ditched its old charging method for new wireless one by magnetically attaching it to the iPad Pro thanks to series of magnets installed inside the device. The new Smart Keyboard Folio was also unveiled that will allow users to type in various angles but the price has gone up to $179. Even though Apple still has interest in its MacBook Air model, it seems they are focused on making the iPad the replacement for the desktop and the laptop. With CEO Tim Cook pointing out the device outsold the biggest notebook vendors Apple ditching the MacBook and other desktop models would seem almost inevitable. — Photo:  Stephanie Keith / Getty

Jenni Farley & Roger Mathews: We Are Never, Ever, Ever Getting Back Together

Sad news from our favorite crew of tanning bed enthusiasts today. As you may have heard, Jersey Shore star Jenni Farley has separated from Roger Mathews after three years of marriage. The split is particularly heartbreaking, as Mathews has made it clear that he has no intention of giving up on the relationship. In a series of videos and social media posts, Mathews has pleaded with Farley to take him back . Alas, the famously hard-hearted JWoww seems to have no interest in a reconciliation. Sources close to the mother of two claim Farley has stated unequivocally that she’ll never get back together with Mathews . So fans were more than a little confused when Jenni posted pics of a Halloween photoshoot in which she posed alongside Roger and the couple’s two children. In fact, in the comments section of Farley’s Instagram post, many of her followers congratulated her on reconciling with Mathews: “JWoww is over Roger and as far as she is concerned, they aren’t getting back together,” a source close to the situation tells Hollywood Life. “Jenni arranged a Halloween family photo shoot for daughter Meilani over the weekend because she’s obsessed with Disney and Moana, but that’s the only reason she did it.” The insider says Jenni and Roger are both committed to ensuring that the split is as painless as possible for their children. And so they’ll continue to participate in family functions together, but Farley has apparently made up her mind and plans to proceed with a divorce. “She’ll continue to put together family functions and it gives Roger hope, but there’s really no chance she will get back together with him,” the source adds. “It’s really important to Jenni to keep the kids lives as normal as possible,” the informant continues. “She and Roger are completely amicable and there’s no bad blood whatsoever, but for Jenni, they’ve grown apart. Roger wants her back, but it’s not going to happen. “They both love and respect one another, but Jenni feels they’ve kind of grown apart. Everything she’s doing right now is strictly for the kids and what’s in their best interest.” Both parties have confirmed that there was no infidelity or abusive behavior in their marriage, and Jenni’s decision to end the relationship was simply a result of a slow deterioration of affection. Unfortunately for Roger, it sounds as though she’s inflexible on the matter. View Slideshow: Jersey Shore Cast: Where Are They Now?

Cardi B and Nicki Minaj Feud: Twitter and The Maury Show Pick Sides!

Cardi B and Nicki Minaj are feuding. It's intense, but at least nobody's throwing shoes anymore. Cardi claims that she passed over working with artists like Little Mix, and that Nicki is essentially getting her leftovers . Nicki's stans believe Nicki, Cardi's stans believe Cardi, and most people are just enjoying watching the two fight. After Cardi ranted and raved and invited Nicki to physically fight, Nicki had a counter-proposal. Nicki said that Cardi doesn't write her own lyrics … and “offered” for them to both take lie detector tests to prove it. Naturally, as soon as someone mentioned that, The Maury Show had to weigh in. Twitter is losing their minds over this whole beef. Take a look. 1. Nicki calls for peace As you will see, some applauded her appeal to reason. Others weren’t buying it. 2. Did someone say “lie detector?” The Maury Show is famous for their love of texts and then revealing the results after a lot of dramatic build-up. 3. Maury got some replies One person was Team Nicki, another was Team Cardi, and another was just there to enjoy the feud. That more or less sums up Twitter’s reaction to this whole thing. 4. Someone is betting on Cardi This fight sequence is one hell of an illustration of how this person imagines that the fight would go down 5. Team Cardi spoke out From their point of view, Cardi had come with plenty of receipts — in addition to her hot-headed threats. 6. Some Cardi fans think Nicki is envious We’re leery of cherry-picked lists, but it’s clear that these two very talented women do not get along View Slideshow

Kylie Jenner Just Gave Her Mom a $250,000 Car

As previously reported, Kylie Jenner is a billionaire . And while this may seem nauseating to some, perhaps you can take comfort in the fact that the young businesswoman is at least spending her money wisely. She isn't spending an insane amount of money on extravagant gifts for people who don't need it or anything. Wait… what? That's exactly what she is doing? Oh. In the video featured here, we see Kylie surprise mother Kris jenner (who doesn't turn 63 years old until November 5) with what is apparently her dream car. That would be a 488 Gran Turismo Berlinetta red Ferrari — which retails for $250,000. But what's the point in surprising someone if you can't get credit for it with the public, right? “I’m on my way to my mom’s house to surprise her with her birthday gift,” Kylie says in this footage, which she filmed. “I’ve had this for the last month and I’m so excited to finally be giving it to her. It’s a little dark outside so I hope that you could see it good.” We then cut to Kris and boyfriend Corey Gamble, the former of whom is in her pajamas and who does a decent job of acting as if she really had no clue this was coming. ”What? What is that? Are you kidding me?” Kris gasps. “That’s from you? Oh my god. Oh my god!” After hugging her 21-year-old daughter and wiping back tears, Kris sit into the fancy sports car, joking that if she had known Kylie was coming over, she “would have dressed cuter.” Good one, Kris! “What is going on?” she asks. “I don’t even know what to do. How do I even start it?” (Sounds like Kris is a true car expert and totally deserving of this vehicle.) Kylie then took a series of pictures of the car, labelling one “488 For The Queen.” Kylie herself was presented with a $320,000 Ferrari 482 Italia by ex-boyfriend Tyga for her 18th birthday… and a $189,000 Mercedes-Benz Maybach for her 19th birthday.  Check out Kris reacting to her daughter's ridiculous present now!

His Airness, Michael Jordan Invests His Coins In Popular E-Sports Organization

Read the original here:

Source: Jean Catuffe / Getty The GOAT (debate your auntie) Michael Jordan used to be a mythical figure when it came to video games because he wasn’t in a lot of the NBA related games after Bulls vs. Blazers . Since his inclusion in games like NBA Street and  NBA 2K , it would seem he is warming up to the medium and now has invested in an  e-sports organization. On Thursday (Oct 25), Jordan was announced as a major investor with the e-sports organization aXiomatic who own the formidable Team Liquid. MJ will join the board which includes other sports franchise owners Peter Guber, co-owner of the NBA’s Golden State Warriors and MLB’s Los Angeles Dodgers and Ted Leonsis, owner of the Washington Wizards and  NHL’s Washington Capitals. This is a very significant move for Jordan who initially opted not to be apart of the NBA’s embrace of the virtual hardtop when he decided to drop out of the players association’s group license. We had to play with roster guard on the Bulls for many years because of that decision. Jordan might be embracing the e-sports arena now, but his Charlotte Hornets are still one of the remaining franchises that do not have a team in the NBA 2K League . We expect to that change soon. Jordan isn’t the only NBA star to put their coins in growing sport. Shaquille O’Neal , Stephen Curry, and Mark Cuban also have invested in e-sports organizations as well. There is gold in them darn electronic hills and these athletes and executives definitely see it and want their share of it. — Photo: Jean Catuffe / Getty
