Her husband and former president Bill Clinton also attended the service at the Lincoln Center for Performing Arts on Monday morning. Lee, who was once known as the ‘envy of Wall street’, shot himself inside the bathroom of his family office on Fifth Avenue on Thursday, with the city medical examiner ruling his death a suicide.

An Argentinian police officer’s gesture of love is receiving recognition from around the world after a photo of her breastfeeding a malnourished baby went viral. Officer Celeste Jaqueline Ayala was working overtime on guard duty when she and her partner Marcos Heredia were called to the Children’s Hospital of La Plata. Social workers had arrived to the hospital with a family who needed urgent care. The couple’s 6 children were being separated from their parents due to signs of abandonment. The children, who ranged from the ages of 9 years old to 6 months old, were malnourished and severely dirty, and described…
Kids can be annoying, especially when they’re loud in places that we do not want them to be. Nico Alary, the co-owner of Holybelly in Paris, France, said restaurants don’t like babies, toddlers, and infants. “Even if the owner is baby-friendly, most [servers] aren’t. They are messy, noisy, sticky, clumsy, disruptive miniature trainwrecks,” he wrote. “If you work in our industry, don’t tell me you don’t … go ‘f***-f***-f***’ in your head when you see a charming couple with a pair of adorable kids pushing the doors of the restaurant you’re working at. I just won’t believe you.” Alary highlighted that…
It was a bitterly cold night in January 1935, when the mayor of NYC walked in on night court in the poorest part of the city. He dismissed the judge for the evening and took the bench himself. Within a few minutes, an old woman was brought before him, charged with stealing a loaf of bread. The shopkeeper from whom she had stolen the bread refused to drop the charges, even though he knew the destitute old woman was caring for her sick daughter and two starving grandchildren after their father deserted the family. “It’s a really bad neighborhood, your…
He’s been blacklisted. Anthony Loffredo, who calls himself the “black alien,” removed his ears, nostrils and even a few fingers; sharpened his teeth and dyed them purple; and covered his body in extreme tattoos. Now the Frenchman says he’s found one space where he can’t come in peace. “If I want to eat at a restaurant, sometimes the server says I can’t eat on the terrace,” Loffredo, 33, recently told LAD Bible. While some alter the size of their figure or inject fillers into their face, Loffredo’s body modification is out of this world. He revealed that he was miserable living in a body he…
This week, the Hickory Daily Record profiled the police chief of Brookford, North Carolina, as part of a series for Black History Month. William Armstrong is currently the only full-time Brookford officer, but the department has nine part-time officers. (Photo/Town of Brookford Police Department Facebook) For many, a new year often translates to taking on different challenges like eating healthier and working out more consistently. But for one 24-year-old, he decided to enter 2023 under a new title: police chief. William Armstrong, police chief in the Town of Brookford, started the position in January, but had previously worked as a…

It was a terrifying discovery for the parents of a three-year-old boy when they realized he’d gone missing from his home in Florida. Marshal Butler, of Ponce de León, who has autism went missing on June 3, 2020 triggering a desperate police search. The toddler was last seen wearing just a diaper and with the two family dogs Nala and Buckwheat, which gave the family only a small comfort.

This is how the Abrams tank can continue to bring an unparalleled advantage to the battlefield. It may have emerged as one of the Army’s big five new weapons systems in the 1980s, but today’s M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank is an entirely new vehicle. Given its longevity, some may wonder if it has reached the end of the line in terms of upgrade potential? The answer seems to be no, in large measure due to the series of aforementioned factors such as high-speed computing, long-range thermal sights, ammunition data links, and perhaps most of all, the impact of artificial-intelligence-capable…
The Mi-28NM is an upgrade of the Mi-28 Havoc. Russia is arming its newest attack helicopter with air-to-air guided missiles. The Mi-28NM “Night Hunter” will be armed with the same R-74M heat-seeking missiles designed for advanced jet fighters, according to Russian media. But some experts warn that the United States armed its helicopters with anti-aircraft missiles during the Cold wᴀʀ, and that using choppers for air combat isn’t as easy as it looks. “The latest Russian Mi-28NM attack helicopter will turn into a fighter capable of handling enemy aircraft, drones and cruise missiles,” according to state-owned newspaper Izvestia, citing…
The US Army has recently conducted a test in which its AH-64E Apache attack helicopter fired an Israeli Spike-NLOS missile at a target boat off the coast of Florida. India is one of the countries that fly the Boeing Apache helicopter. The US Army’s advanced attack helicopter was equipped with the lethal Spike NLOS (Non-Line Of Sight) missiles with the aim to increase the accuracy of the strikes and enhance the helicopter’s ability to strike moving targets. The exercise could pave the way for a similar weapon integration with India’s Apache attack helicopters. The helicopters were deployed in the Ladakh…
Sailors, veterans and their families are saying goodbye in Norfolk, Va., on Saturday to the USS Enterprise, which was the largest ship in the world and the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier when it was commissioned in 1961. Matthew Hostetler/AP In its illustrious history, the Enterprise served at the center of international events for a half-century — from the Cuban missile crisis to Vietnam to the Iraq War. And it had a distinguished Hollywood career as well, playing a leading role in the 1986 film Top Gun, which starred Tom Cruise as a young naval aviator. When the Enterprise slipped into the waters…
Soon after many Russian and foreign media reported that Sukhoi was developing a fifth-generation light single-engine fighter based on the heavy Su-57, an image of the prototype of the aircraft was also posted online. The photograph immediately caught the attention of the US military and made them worry. Nikolay Krasnov As the portal avia.pro explains, the concern is dictated by the fact that the prototype of the light fighter is largely reminiscent of the conceptual images of the Russian MiG-41 fighter. “A number of Russian media outlets have written that the new fifth generation fighter is capable of embodying…
The SR-71, best known as the Blackbird, is one of the most legendary U.S. military planes. But what was it like to be one of the people trying to shoot down this super-fast spy plane? The SR-71, best known as the Blackbird, is one of the most legendary U.S. military planes. It flew faster than any other plane, including over the Soviet Union on espionage and reconnaissance missions. The Blackbird was never shot down at any point in its more than thirty-year life, even though more than 4,000 missiles were fired at it over the years. There were some close calls, however. But what was it…
