The Reason This Mom Is Asking Women to Be Naked Around Their Children Is Not What You'd Expect
I advocate nakedness around your children, homes and husbands. I don't want my boys expectations of women to resemble...
Posted by Constance Hall on Monday, March 7, 2016
In honor of International Women's Day, Constance Hall - who has divided the Internet with her viral Facebook posts - is asking women to love their bodies and show them off . . . by advocating nakedness around their children.
Hall says she wants her boys - and girls - to grow up with a realistic vision of a woman's body, rather than what is pictured on TV and in magazines. To achieve this, she advocates being naked around your home and in front of your children: "The next generation's definition of beauty will be radically different and no longer will we idolize the unrealistic airbrushed idea of perfection that causes so much self doubt and depression."
What do you think of Hall's plea?
This Dad Didn't Know He Had Autism - Until His Daughter Was Diagnosed
Here's to the men:Who hold their women every night.Who make pancakes on Saturdays.Who get up and parent their...
Posted by GirlTribe on Friday, January 15, 2016
When a psychologist diagnosed Chris Offer's oldest daughter, Sno, with autism, it was a life-altering moment in more ways than one.
The Australian father of four always considered his own behaviors as "quirky," but it had never occurred to Chris or his wife that he could also be on the autism spectrum.
Wife Jessica has been with Chris for 10 years and shared her experience discovering his diagnosis in a blog post titled, "We Were Married 7 Years Before It Occurred to Us That My Husband Was Autistic."
"Imagine that all your life you're trying to be . . . held in this normal box and no matter how hard you try, you find it hard," she said. "And then someone goes, 'Well, that's because you're not normal.' It's freeing."
Jessica first noticed that her daughter wasn't "neurotypical" from the time she was 4 years old. She describes how she would never dare walk a different route to kindergarten or change Sno's breakfast food because her daughter couldn't handle it if her routine was altered. When Jessica took her concerns to Chris, she says that he dismissed them as normal. They both later realized that this was because it was his normal, too.
"He saw no issue with the way she behaved because he could see why. He could understand her triggers because they triggered him, too," Jessica wrote. "And he had many of the exact same struggles when he was young that she was experiencing now. But no one made any connection."
After another year, Jessica decided to have her daughter assessed and with that came the autism diagnosis. A few months later, Chris went in for a formal assessment and learned the truth. Even though Chris's diagnosis came as a surprise to them both, Jessica acknowledges that the pair did get into fights when they first started dating because it was hard for him to make eye contact with people while he was speaking.
"He's always been kind of unique. He's always paid more attention to detail where I'm more scattered," Jessica told ABC News. "So I've always really loved it because he contrasts my personality. We never looked into it because it was never a problem in our relationship."
Despite the fact that Chris had never even heard of autism when he was younger, he now feels "better equipped" to deal with everyday life since the diagnosis.
"I'm still doing the same things that I'm always doing but I'm doing them differently with more of a conscious mind," he said. "The diagnosis gives you a better toolbox to deal with everyday life."
7 Reasons You Should Start Asking Your Children Open-Ended Questions
Growing up, my mom would ask me every single day, "how was school?" and no matter how uneventful or amazing my day was, my response was always "good." I know my mom was just trying to gauge how my day was, and she was probably hoping that if I didn't have a good one, I would actually change my answer. But the truth is, it became a sort of learned response and cut off any meaningful communication we could have engaged in as a result.
When we ask our children closed questions that are almost guaranteed to be answered with one word, we're doing them a disservice by not allowing them to creatively and openly speak to us. Our children need a lot from us, but open communication is definitely at the top of that list for a number of reasons.
Here are seven ways that asking open-ended questions - that will spark so much more than a one-worded answer - can help you to communicate better with your child and encourage the development of a number of vital skills.
My Placenta Turned on Me and Started Attacking
The placenta is an astonishing organ; it is, after all, essential for growing healthy babies. However, in my last pregnancy, the very thing that was giving my daughter life was also something that was risking mine. I suffered from placenta accreta, a barely talked about condition until recently when Kim Kardashian went public with her struggles with it.
When I was 19 weeks pregnant, my husband and I headed to an ultrasound for our second baby. My first trimester was rough. I suffered morning sickness, bleeding, and an emergency appendectomy at 15 weeks. So we were thrilled that the baby survived what we thought was the toughest trimester during pregnancy and figured this doctor visit would be a routine scan. However, something seemed off with the ultrasound technician.
The scan was lengthy and she asked the high-risk ob-gyn to come in to look as well. What was supposed to be a "Hallelujah! You survived the first trimester!" moment turned into fear and concern. The doctor noticed that there was some blurring between the uterus and the placenta. She was suspecting placenta accreta, but she could not be certain until another scan around 28 weeks.
What I learned from my friend Google, after I returned home, was that accreta occurs when the placenta behaves like a tumor by attaching to the uterine wall and in some cases grows through the wall and can invade other organs. It is a very dangerous condition that has a high risk of hemorrhaging and can lead to a hysterectomy and a 7 percent chance of maternal death. The placenta is more likely to attach and turn into accreta when you have scar tissue from existing surgeries of the uterus.
I had a previous C-section, due to my firstborn being breech, and according to the American Pregnancy Association, this increased my chance of having accreta by 0.3 percent - a statistic no one mentioned to me when I was advised to have a C-section. They gave me the risks if I chose not to have the C-section, but they never informed me of the potential complications I could have in future pregnancies after having one.
I would have to wait another 10 weeks until I knew what my fate would be. In that time, I was told to go on modified bed rest, which was challenging with a toddler to care for at home. I was also advised that for the remainder of my pregnancy, I should keep my phone on me at all times and to leave the door to my house unlocked in case an EMT would need to get in due to hemorrhage risks - I was told I could bleed out in minutes. I had to prepare my family for all possibilities, which was a difficult conversation to have. While other moms-to-be were getting ready for baby showers and picking out nursery colors, I was worrying about my placenta attacking my organs and if I would even live through this.
Around 30 weeks, an MRI scan confirmed accreta, which developed into percreta, the most severe form of the condition, when the placenta invades through the uterus and into surrounding organs. In my case it was attaching to my bladder. I was immediately transferred to a group of specialists at Stanford Medical due to the complex nature of my placenta attachment.
I was told I would need to be admitted at 32 weeks for hospital bed rest. They asked me to get a series of steroid shots as a precaution to help my baby's lungs develop. This ended up being a huge blessing, because I started having contractions the Sunday night before I was to be admitted. I was only 31 weeks, 5 days, but they suspected there was a small uterine rupture causing contractions and they would need to form an emergency team of surgeons to deliver the baby the following morning.
That morning was a blur. I was trying to keep calm and positive while the anesthesiologist inserted large catheter ports in my arms for easier access to transfuse blood at a rapid rate. Nothing about this birth experience was natural. My operating room had a large surgical team of around 20 doctors and nurses. This wasn't going to be your average C-section but would require the work of ob-gyns, oncologists, and anesthesiologists to perform the surgery. We also had to wait in the surgical room for almost an hour to make sure they had the right blood type on hand in case of hemorrhaging. Finally everything was in place and they put me under general anesthesia before delivering my baby, Annabelle, who was born at 3 pounds, 6 ounces. After she was born, they immediately got to work on me. The doctors removed my uterus, fallopian tubes, and a portion of my bladder during the surgery. I aspirated, required intubation and needed four units of blood due to hemorrhaging. I woke up five hours later in the ICU unable to speak with a breathing tube down my throat.
Because I was in the ICU for a few days, I didn't get to meet my daughter right away. I wasn't even able to hold her until five days later. She was beautiful and worth it all. She spent 34 days in the NICU - most of that time considered routine - and she was released earlier than expected.
My recovery on the other hand was rocky. I suffered many complications from the surgery. I had to wear a catheter from the bladder repair and I suffered an ileus, which causes your intestines to shut down. I kept failing the bladder tests. Two weeks later, they sent me home, only to be readmitted the next day to another, closer hospital for chest pains and then transferred back to Stanford for more care. The aspiration from the original surgery had caused fluid to form in my chest and required many procedures, including chest tubes, to drain it. My body was also raging with fever so they assigned me to an infectious disease doctor.
It was a painful roller coaster with constant bad news. My husband joked that it was like the lyrics from that Paula Abdul song, "I take 2 steps forward, I take 2 steps back." At one point things were looking so dire, my doctors were talking to me about possible lung surgery and an additional bladder repair. I was overwhelmed; I just wanted to be home with my family and feeling "normal" again. But around the end of the fourth week, things turned around. My lung scans came back clear and my bladder was finally healing enough to send me home.
When people ask me what was the hardest part of this experience, I don't hesitate: being away from my children for a month. I only was able to hold Annabelle a few times during her first month, because I was constantly fighting infections in the hospital and they wouldn't allow me into the NICU. Olivia was only 2 and she didn't understand why her mom was gone for so long. I only had her visit the hospital a couple of times, because I was so sick and attached to so many tubes. I didn't want to frighten her. I will never forget the time we Facetimed in the hospital and Olivia burst into tears when she saw me. She missed her mama and there was nothing I could do. I cried myself to sleep alone in the hospital room that night.
If it wasn't for the tremendous amount of support from friends and family, I don't know how I would have gotten through this time. We had family members travel here from out of state to care for Olivia at home while others spent hours in the hospital with me. Family members even took shifts spending time in the NICU cuddling Annabelle, since I wasn't allowed to hold her. Friends provided meals every day for over two months. My husband juggled us all, driving back and forth between my daughter at home and me in the hospital every night.
I am now 7 months postpartum and I still have some moments of anxiety over everything that happened. Those moments may stick with me for a lifetime, but I am so happy to have survived this. I am so thankful to the doctors and nurses who saved me and to the people who donated blood, so I could still be here today to raise my children.

7 Totally Practical Career Tips For Office Introverts
You think things through before speaking. You work best alone or in a small group. Though you may not be shy, you wouldn't describe yourself as a crowd-loving Chatty Cathy. When your co-workers invite you to happy hour, you think up every excuse in the book to get out of it (does Netflix and ice cream work?!).
If you're an introvert, it can, at times, feel difficult to get ahead in the workplace - especially because that usually constitutes lots of socializing. Cast aside your anxiety, dear introverts: here's how to overcome your fear of awkwardness and do the most brilliant job possible.
1. Challenge yourself.
Practice makes perfect, with everything - including mingling at work. "Every day, make it a point to break out of your comfort zone," says Jill Jacinto, a millennial career expert for WORKS. "Whether that means heading to the pantry to make small talk with your co-workers, asking a teammate to get lunch, offering to attend a conference, or presenting at a meeting." If you begin taking big strides past your boundaries now, it will feel like a breeze a year from today.
2. Set up a one-to-one coffee or lunch date with a co-worker.
Take a trip to Starbucks and sit down together with a cup of joe - it's less uncomfortable than engaging in a conversation across cubicles. "When asking for this time, indicate that you would like to learn more about his or her experience at the company," says Jane Miller, CEO and founder of JaneKnows.com, which provides career advice to millennials. "People love to talk about what they have done and share their advice! While in this situation, it is easy to segue into learning a bit more about them personally, and vice-versa."
3. Read a couple of books.
Hallie Crawford, career coach and founder of HallieCrawford.com, recommends The Introvert Advantage and The Introverted Leader. "These can help you educate others, if needed, about your strengths as an introvert," Crawford says. "[They also help you] manage your energy effectively in a more extroverted department or organization, and be more extroverted when needed (such as in networking events, or in meetings where you need to report or present)." Hey, we all know books can change your life!
4. DO attend that after-work happy hour.
Agree to go if your team invites you to a post-5 p.m. cocktail - gatherings like this are key to work success. Bonus: you don't have to do all the talking! "The beauty of this strategy is that in a group, you don't have to be the center of attention," Miller says. "Instead, you can learn a lot by observing others. Listening more than speaking is a tried-and-true technique at work (and life)!" And what could be easier than sitting at a bar, sipping a vodka while nodding your head?!
5. Research people you'll be interacting with.
Knowing a little bit about everyone you'll be talking to at an event is a surefire way to avoid social blunders, such as name mix-ups. "Before going to a networking event, study the guest list," Jacinto says. "Learn about the hosts, speakers, and other attendees. Arming yourself with information is a great way to open the line of conversation."
6. Bear in mind the loudest person in the room isn't the only one heard.
"I know it can seem that way when you're sitting next to the bull in the china shop who takes every opportunity to open up her mouth," Miller says. "Your best strategy is to always be prepared when you go into a meeting. That way, you can feel confident that you are armed with the facts if the opportunity arises to add commentary. Facts are an introvert's friend!" Remember: loudest does NOT always equal smartest.
7. Just be yourself.
No matter what, always remain genuine. While faking it works in some instances, other times, it's painfully obvious you're acting out of character. "If you are totally uneasy in social settings, don't constantly put yourself in those situations!" Miller says. "It will make you and your co-workers uncomfortable. Don't be afraid to represent your great work - just do it in a way that makes you comfortable and lets you shine!"

Make a Great Impression on Your Interviewer in 10 Minutes
The first few minutes of an interview are crucial and can be a make-or-break factor. First impressions are really important and will last long after you leave the room.
Learning how to make a memorable impact in a few minutes is a powerful tool that applies to all interviews. There may be a time in your job-hunting adventures when you come across a speed interview - the interview version of speed dating - in which you have a limited time span to convince an interviewer to hire you. Or perhaps you'll bump into a manager hiring for a position at a networking event and need to sell yourself in a quick conversation. Here are some tips for a lasting impression.
1. Pick one good story that wows
If you only have a few minutes to make an impact, prepare one really memorable story that displays the qualities the hiring manager is looking for. It should be something that showcases an instance when you went above and beyond and an example that is truly unique. It could be a women's group you spearheaded at work or maybe even a pop-up restaurant you started on the side.
2. Get your posture right
Posture is really important in an interview, and people can instantly associate negative traits with you if you slouch. Stand and sit up straight, and walk confidently into a room with measured steps.
3. Master the smile
Be sure to smile to put your interviewer at ease, but be natural. Don't smile too much, or you may seem nervous. Practice in a mirror to perfect the smile.
4. Have warm, dry hands
Wipe your hands before the interview, and be sure to do it without the interviewer looking. You might want to rub your hands together as well to warm them up. Make sure you have a firm grasp when you shake hands, because you definitely don't want a limp handshake.
5. Wear a pop of color
If it's appropriate, try adding some color to your outfit to make yourself stand out among the drab grays and blacks. Your whole outfit doesn't have to be bright red, but you can choose statement earrings or a cute scarf to stand out.
6. Be concise
One of the biggest mistakes to make during a short interview is rambling. Your interviewer may lose focus, and you might not be able to get to all your points if you're not succinct. Practice making your answers as concise as you can.
7. Think in bullet points
For every answer, try to think in bullet points. This will help you be more succinct and pace yourself with your answers. Pro tip: prepare for the interview questions by writing out the answers in bullet points.
8. Watch the time - but be subtle
If you're aware of the time, your answers won't be rushed and you'll be able to say everything you want to say during the interview. Try to time yourself when you're practicing for the interview, and this skill will become second nature to you.
9. Show passion
Enthusiasm is infectious, and all employers want their hires to really want the specific position. There's no bigger turnoff than the feeling that the person you're interviewing just wants something to pay the bills. A passionate interviewee can be an indicator of someone who will take initiative, work hard, and bring something new to the table.
10. Follow up with a memorable email
Your interviewer may be interviewing dozens of candidates, so a follow-up email will be a nice reminder of who you are. Personalize your email, bring up something you really enjoyed talking about during your conversation, and maybe even allude to what makes you different from the other candidates. Not following up is one of the biggest pet peeves of a hiring manager, and you'll be surprised how much it can help with scoring the job.

8 Questions to Ask Yourself to Help You Declutter
Stop making excuses and clean up the clutter in your home! It'll make you feel better and make your living space look better as well! Ask yourself these questions and get rid of your items based on your answers. And when we say dispose of your clutter, we mean either sell it, donate it, recycle it, give it away to friends and family, or throw it away.
1. Have I used this in the last year?
If your answer is no, it's time to toss.
2. If I were shopping right now, would I buy this?
If the current you wouldn't buy this item now, why would you even keep it?
3. Is the only thing that's keeping me from disposing this item that I don't want to waste money?
Think of it this way: you wasted money when you bought an item you don't use.
4. Am I holding on to this for sentimental value?
Be strict and keep only a few of the items in a small memorabilia box. Then take a photo of items you are throwing away so you can keep them forever.
5. Do I have a similar item that serves the same purpose?
If yes, then get rid of one of them.
6. Do I have a realistic plan to use this?
Remember, don't lie to yourself about how perfect an item would be for Halloween. Make sure you have a concrete plan to use the item, and if you don't use it within the time frame you set for yourself to use it, then toss it.

Tom Hardy Looks Like He's Getting in Trouble While Meeting Prince Charles
Tom Hardy ditched his tough-guy persona that the world is used to seeing on screen when he came face to face with Prince Charles on Monday. The handsome actor (and secret lip-syncer) met the royal when they attended The Prince's Trust Celebrate Success Awards at the London Palladium on March 7. Tom, who looked dapper in a black jacket, appeared nervous when he shook Charles's hand. At one point, the father of Prince William and Prince Harry even jokingly pointed his finger at Tom. Keep reading to see more of the hilarious interaction, and then check out Tom and Leonardo DiCaprio taking selfies together at the Oscars last month.

This Hot, Young Music Teacher Absolutely Nailed His Performance on The Voice
A good-looking children's music teacher with a killer voice - it almost seems too good to be true. But that description perfectly fits Ryan Quinn, a 25-year-old contestant who wowed all four judges on The Voice. For his blind audition, the handsome singer performed "Can't Find My Way Home," and it only took a few notes for Christina Aguilera to turn her chair around. He explained to the judges that he workes at a school "in a music room for traumatized kids," solidifying that he really, truly couldn't be easier to root for. Check out the must-see performance above, then relive Jordan Smith's blind audition, which captured all the judges' attention last season.
Who Is Slender Man, and What Does He Have to Do With American Horror Story?

If you've been sifting through all the details of American Horror Story's sixth season, chances are you've heard about the possible involvement of a figure known as Slender Man. Back in January, Us Weekly reported that the next installment after Hotel - the show's fifth season - would revolve around the horrifying creature. This, of course, begs the question: who is Slender Man, and where the hell did he come from? As it turns out, the creature came forth from the darkest depths of the Internet years ago, quickly becoming a viral sensation. Keep reading to see everything we could uncover about the monster, then check out our own theories for AHS's next season.
- He was created for a Photoshop contest on an Internet forum. Slender Man first appeared in a Photoshop contest on the Something Awful forum. A user named Victor Surge digitally altered and uploaded two black-and-white images featuring disturbing captions that alluded to the existence and power of the creature.
- He's since inspired tons of Internet horror fiction. Numerous Slender Man stories have popped up in the time since his first appearance. A popular horror fiction community called CreepyPasta has so many, in fact, that they've created a tag page for him.
- He's been linked to mythological creatures in other foreign cultures. People have connected Slender Man to mythological creatures in a handful of other cultures. There's "Der Großman" (The Tall Man) in Germany, another "Tall Man" in Romanian mythology, and a "Tree Man" in English mythology. While no concrete connections have been made, all of the creatures share strikingly similar characteristics.
- He was at the center of a grisly attack in 2014. In Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls stabbed their friend - also a 12 year old - nearly to death. The girls allegedly claimed that they were trying to please Slender Man, hoping that the attack would make them his "proxies."
- There are various video games centered around him. One of the first video games to tackle the legend is called Slender, and it looks positively terrifying. Plenty of other games for computers, smartphones, and more have popped up since.
- An episode of Supernatural is inspired by him. In an episode called #thinman, Sam and Dean Winchester go to investigate a murder, only to come face to face with amateur paranormal investigators, "The Ghostfacers." In the Supernatural universe, the "Thin Man" isn't actually real - two of the town's inhabitants are posing as the figure to cover up their crimes.
- He might appear in the sixth season of American Horror Story. While Us Weekly reported that season six of American Horror Story would feature the ghastly creature, another source close to the project claimed that the rumors are "not true." Looks like we'll have to wait and see to really know for sure.

Chadwick Boseman Unmasks Marvel's Most Mysterious New Character, Black Panther
Captain America: Civil War is going to be a groundbreaking Marvel film for a lot of reasons - it'll be the first time Avengers are pitted against Avengers as protagonists and antagonists, but it's also the first time we'll meet the Marvel character Black Panther. Aside from the obvious first that this is modern Marvel's first black superhero, it's also the first time an Avenger will make his debut in another Avengers movie before getting his own planned standalone movie. Got that? It's better if you just read what star Chadwick Boseman, best known for biopics 42 and Get on Up, told me and a group of reporters when we visited the Civil War set last Summer. Read on for how much we'll learn about the new character in this Marvel sequel!
1. How does Black Panther fit into this movie? Is this is an origin story?
Chadwick Boseman: I'm just kind of thrown into the middle. It's definitely not an origin story, no.
2. When we meet you, are you already Black Panther?
CB: You meet me as the Prince of Wakanda. You meet me as a politician/monarch, not as a superhero.
3. So will we see that transformation in this film?
CB: It's not necessarily a transformation. I am just thrown into the mix. To answer your question, yes, I am already a Black Panther - a Black Panther, yeah.
4. Do we get to see Wakanda [T'Challa/Black Panther's fictional home country] at all?
CB: No. Sorry. I know you thought you were because of Age of Ultron, but . . . [laughs] It's not happening.
5. Is Wakanda known throughout the whole world, or is it still a secretive society?
CB: Wakanda is known to the world, yes. [Laughs]
6. Is there a Wakandan accent, or do you just speak in your regular voice?
CB: Yeah, there's a Wakandan accent.
7. What was it like putting on the costume for the first time?
CB: It's hot. It's blazing hot. Listen, it's so hot. I've never been that hot before in my life, seriously.
8. Is the costume all one piece, or is it a multiple-step process to get into it?
CB: I can't tell you that. [Laughs] I can't tell you that because I don't want you picturing how it happens. It's not cute.
9. You're in this movie with all the other actors playing characters that they've already established. Were they able to give you any pointers?
CB: You know what, I don't think there's any way for anybody to prepare you for this. I just think people have been very gracious in welcoming me on set, and even off set. What was more important was, you know, Chris [Evans] has been very cool in terms of inviting me to stuff and giving me a hard time in the best way. His sense of humor is great. Robert Downey has been great as well, [Anthony] Mackie - everybody. Everybody's been cool. Don Cheadle. I've seen a lot of them separate from being here, so it didn't feel like when I got here it was like all of a sudden meeting them for the first time.
10. You've had a recent run of playing iconic figures in history, like James Brown and Jackie Robinson. What's appealing about someone like Black Panther?
CB: That he's fictional. [Laughs] That's the main thing. I don't have to - not that I didn't like doing this. I loved interacting with the family members, the Brown family members, the Robinson family members. But in this case, I don't have to go talk to the Queen of Wakanda.
11. But you do have that expectation of knowing about the comic book character. How much research did you do, or were you already familiar?
CB: No, I was not totally familiar. I think what you try to do is just get your hands on every single comic book you can find that has the character in it, or him being mentioned or anything. I've just tried to read them all - not like it's really work. It is work - don't get me wrong - it is work, but it's just sort of reading them like a kid, you know? Because when you just read it like it's work, you're just trying to get through it. So I think it's putting yourself in that mind frame to go through the mythology in a fun way. And then, also, I've gone to South Africa, gone to some places, to see some things that I think relate to the character, and let those things sort of fuel your workouts, fuel your sessions when you work on the part.
12. Did you read a lot of comic books as a kid, and if so who were some of your favorites?
CB: I didn't, I didn't. I wasn't a comic book geek as a kid. I read some, but it was just like, "Oh, I have this comic book here." It wasn't like I was collecting them. I didn't really collect much of anything - baseball cards, nothing. I had some of them too, but I wasn't a collector. But this has been a much more aggressive intake of that material. It is interesting too because it's different than watching the films, different than reading a novel or anything else. I think it helps you a lot as a filmmaker because the exposition and things that happen in a film are done much differently than they are in a comic book, but some things do coincide. So I think it helps you as an artist.
13. What separates your character from some of the other heroes that we've seen in terms of abilities, weapons, etc.?
CB: I can't say, if you're talking about his abilities. He's not the strongest, you know what I'm saying? He's not necessarily the fastest, but he's strong and he's fast. He has a wit, a wisdom, and a plan - an overarching plan - that a lot of times you don't necessarily see. So it's his strategy during a fight or during a battle. As far as the comic book goes, I think that's different. As far as this movie, you know, this is an introduction to the character.
14. Do you see a lot of action in this movie?
CB: I see a fair share, I see a fair share . . . I think the difference in him is that he's a ruler of a country. That's the difference. I wouldn't even call him a superhero. In the mythology of the country, he's not a superhero. He's a warrior, and it's part of their tradition. It's not like he's like, "Who is that masked guy that's doing this stuff?" Everybody knows it's him, and they expect that it's him, and they pray to God, or even him in some cases, that he would do the things that he's doing. Which is much different than most of the superheroes in which you don't know their identity and you don't know when they might show up. There's an expectation that's much different. So that's the main difference.
15. You mentioned this was the introduction to your character. How do the events of this film inform Black Panther's solo film?
CB: Well, just in a basic way. You're seeing him in the larger scheme of things, like fighting outside of his country. So it will definitely affect what you see later. That's all I can say. [Laughs]
16. This is the first time we've seen a Marvel movie introduce a major character in a film knowing that there will also be a solo film for him. What do you feel makes this story right for introducing Black Panther?
CB: Like if I was doing my own comedy show on HBO or something, in most cases I would go do stand-up at The Comedy Store in LA or some local spot, and I would gear up to do that. So when you see Thor, you know, "Who's going to be Thor?" that's a rough way to do it. Particularly, in this case, a lot of people don't know who Black Panther is. So I think they're really smart to introduce him and let people know, "Oh, yeah, this guy was one of the major comic book characters. He was part of the Avengers." That history is important for people to get before you have a standalone movie. So I think it's the best way to do it, absolutely.
17. But you assume that Black Panther the movie takes place after Civil War. You assume it's not set in the past.
CB: I don't think you can assume anything, because there's also such a thing as a prequel also. I think anything is possible.

American Horror Story: All the Definite Connections Between the 5 Seasons
American Horror Story: Hotel has finally drawn to a close. While it's sad to leave the Hotel Cortez in the past, it's always thrilling to see what's on the horizon. We've already begun theorizing about season six, and we've even picked out a possible hint from the finale. Going forward, though, we're also excited for even more returning characters and even more threads between seasons. Of course we have plenty of unconfirmed theories, but we're focusing on only those threads that are concrete. To get us ready for the chapters that lie ahead, let's look back at all the times two (or more) AHS installments definitely intersected.
The Big Question Fuller House Doesn't Address in the Reboot
Fuller House is alive and well, and for most fans, it is even better than they expected. Aside from bringing the whole gang back together - minus Michelle Tanner - the reboot perfectly pays homage to everything we loved about Full House. Even though there are a few hidden Easter eggs throughout the show, the biggest is probably the one you didn't even catch.
As Joey Gladstone makes his epic return as everyone's favorite funny guy, there's a huge difference in his character. While he still makes witty one-liners and brings smiles with his trusty puppet Mr. Woodchuck, one thing I couldn't help but notice is the big silver ring on his wedding finger. Hold up, is Joey married? After almost 10 years, it would make sense that he has settled down, but the biggest shock is how the show completely fails to address it. Even the new Mrs. Tanner gets a cameo in the first episode. Come on, Netflix, what gives?
Maybe now that the show has been renewed for a second season, there will be more opportunities to explore this scenario further. In the meantime, we'll just fantasize that he ended up marrying Danny's younger sister Wendy, making him Uncle Joey, for real.

Selena Gomez Has Landed in Paris, and You Can't Miss What She Wore on the Plane
Selena Gomez is our new hero. On her way to Paris to attend the Louis Vuitton Fall 2016 show designed by friend Nicolas Ghesquière, the singer and actress wore what looks to be the most comfortable airport outfit ever consisting of a pair of loose red sweatpants and a hooded sweatshirt with (drumroll, please) white slinky heels.
Though in an Instagram shared by the star before takeoff, where she was eating waffles and drinking red wine (our hero, we tell you!), Selena had already changed into comfortable white sneakers, it was all about her entrance at LAX.
If the details on the laid-back outfit Selena chose for her long flight are any indication for what's to come of her Paris Fashion Week appearances, consider our attention totally grabbed. The asymmetrical hem of the trackpants, the structured black leather bag, the round sunglasses, and later on, when she landed in Paris, the black long overcoat all added a touch of coolness to the ensemble.
