Jimmy Fallon escapes losing finger

He nearly lost his ring finger when he fell and caught his wedding ring on a table edge.
Last night was Fallon’s first fresh “Tonight Show” in more than two weeks.
The show had a summer break scheduled before Fallon’s injury.
Fallon says he spent 10 days in the I-C-U at New York’s Bellevue Hospital Center. He credits the doctors and nurses there with saving his finger.
He appeared on his show last night with his left hand heavily bandaged.
Fallon says his time in the hospital gave him the opportunity to reflect on what he should be doing with his life.
He says his job is to make people laugh who are in an ICU or who are suffering. Fallon adds, “get out of that hospital!”

Jimmy Fallon raises awareness about horrifying injury called ring avulsion

Fans of “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” may have noticed the host with a rather large cast around his left hand where his wedding ring used to be.

That’s because he had a little accident over a two-week break at his home that almost…well, if you’re the kind of person who gets nauseous during movies like Hostel or Saw, you should probably just stop reading right now.

Fallon first sent out some tweets on June 26 explaining how he tripped, caught his wedding ring on the side of a table and “almost ripped my finger off.” He returned to The Tonight Show on Monday where he described his accident and recovery from a rare type of finger injury known as “ring avulsion.”

According to a study published in the Indian Journal of Orthopaedics in 2008, ring avulsion is rare but very serious. It occurs when a ring on a person’s finger is pulled in some kind of forceful manner causing anything from “a simple contusion injury to a traumatic amputation.”

In some cases, ring avulsion can also cause injury to the surrounding skin, muscle and tissue known as “degloving,” which is exactly what your horrified mind is probably picturing right now.

A report filed in 2013 in British Medical Journal Case Reports details the case of a 59-year-old man who had his ring finger stripped almost down to the bone when he tripped and got his wedding ring caught on a steel fence during his fall.

Jimmy Fallon Reveals He Almost Lost a Finger in Freak Accident

Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert are getting divorced

The couple filed divorce docs a while ago, and a judge is expected to officially end their 4 year marriage today. We’re told Blake is the one who filed.

We’re also told all the financial arrangements have been worked out … made easy by the fact that they have a prenup.

The divorce was filed in Oklahoma.

Representatives for the couple told the Associated Press, “This is not the future we envisioned. And it is with heavy hearts that we move forward separately. We are real people, with real lives, with real families, friends and colleagues. Therefore, we kindly ask for privacy and compassion concerning this very personal matter.”

Shelton filed for divorce in Oklahoma, a move which may come as a shock to fans of the superstar singers.

Lambert’s Twitter page proudly displays a photo of her and Shelton smiling for the camera. Shelton’s page features a large horizontal photo from Lambert’s Marie Claire cover.

The pair began dating back in 2006, though they waited until 2011 to tie the knot in front of more than 500 guests, including some of country music’s biggest icons. Original post from mistymountainreferrals.weebly.com

Aussie tougher than shark!

There have been 15 fatalities in Australia since August 2010, which is more than ­triple the average for the past 50 years. Has our admiration of sharks gone too far?

Great white sharks have been ­protected in all Australian waters since 1998. The first male great whites born into that protection reached maturity eight to 10 years ago, and their female counterparts started maturing in 2010. In the meantime, the surviving juveniles born before 1998 presumably also mated.

JEFFREYS BAY, South Africa – It wasn’t what three-time world surfing champion Mick Fanning expected to be doing during a competition: fighting off a shark on live television.

The attack happened during the 2015 J-Bay Open heat in South Africa. The 34-year-old Aussie surfer was in the water with his surfboard when a fin broke through the water near him. The shark then attacked him, according to our sister station Fox CT.

“I was just sitting there and I felt something just get stuck in my leg rope, and I was kicking, trying to get it away,” Fanning told Fox Sports. “I instantly just jumped away. It kept coming at my board and I was kicking and screaming. I just saw fins. I was waiting for teeth. I punched it in the back,” he said.

Rescuers pulled Fanning out of the water, unharmed.

The competition was canceled after the close call.

“The safety of our athletes is a priority for the WSL and, after discussions with both Finalists, we have decided to cancel the remainder of competition at the J-Bay Open. We appreciate the ongoing support we have in South Africa and once again want to express our gratitude to the Water Safety Team,” WSL Commissioner Kieren Perrow said in a statement.

Trump vs McCain

Donald John Trump, Sr. (born June 14, 1946) is an American business magnate, investor.  He is the chairman and president of The Trump Organization and the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts.[1] Trump’s lifestyle and outspoken manner, as well as his best-selling books and media appearances, have made him an American celebrity. He hosted The Apprentice,[2] a US TV show. Donald Trump worked for his father’s firm, Elizabeth Trump & Son, while attending the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and, in 1968, officially joined the company.[9] He was given control of the company in 1971, renaming it The Trump Organization.[10][11] Trump remains a major figure in the real estate industry in the United States and a media celebrity.

McCain served as a Navy pilot during the Vietnam War. He was captured after his plane was shot down and was held more than five years as a prisoner of war. The moderator, Republican pollster Frank Luntz, described McCain as “a war hero.” television personality. McCain followed his father and grandfather, both four-star admirals, into the United States Navy, graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1958. He became a naval aviator, flying ground-attack aircraft from aircraft carriers

Trump is not a fan of John McCain because he has done so little for our Veterans and he should know better than anybody what the Veterans need, especially in regards to the VA. He is yet another all talk, no action politician who spends too much time on television and not enough time doing his job and helping the Vets. He is also allowing our military to decrease substantially in size and strength, something which should never be allowed to happen.

Furthermore, he was extremely disrespectful to the thousands upon thousands of people, many of whom happen to be his constituents, that came to listen to me speak about illegal immigration in Phoenix last week by calling them “crazies”.

These were not “crazies”—these were great American citizens.

I have great respect for all those who serve in our military including those that weren’t captured and are also heroes.

I want to strengthen our military and take care of our Veterans. I want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN especially for those that serve to protect our freedom. I am fighting for our Veterans!

Republican candidates fired back at Donald Trump Saturday after the real-estate billionaire-turned-presidential hopeful disparaged Sen. John McCain’s (R-Az.) military record during an appearance at the Family Leadership Summit in Iowa.

During a press conference following his appearance at the annual conservative gathering, Trump clarified that his comments weren’t meant as an attack on all prisoners of war, just McCain.

“If a person is captured, they’re a hero as far as I’m concerned,” Trump told reporters. “I don’t like the job John McCain is doing in the Senate because he’s not taking care of our veterans.”

“These were not ‘crazies’ — these were great American citizens,” Trump fired back in his statement Saturday, which included a line at the end noting that Trump left his appearance at the Family Leadership Summit “to a long lasting standing ovation, which will be by far the biggest ovation of the weekend, and much congratulatory praise.”

The first month of Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign has been marked by a stream of unfiltered and, by many accounts, offensive statements regarding illegal immigration, beginning with the claim that Mexico is sending its drugs, criminals and rapists over the border to the U.S.

Despite drawing criticism from fellow candidates and elected officials on both sides of the political spectrum, Trump campaign also clearly resonated with some voters, with a recent national Fox News Poll showing the billionaire taking the lead over fellow GOP candidates.

While the backlash against Trump within the Republican primary pool had largely centered on his inflammatory remarks rather than the candidate himself, his attack on McCain struck a nerve and prompted an outpouring of personal rebukes.

In a statement, Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry called on Trump to “apologize immediately for attacking Senator McCain and all veterans who have protected and served our country.”

“As a veteran and an American, I respect Sen. McCain because he volunteered to serve his country,” the former Texas governor stated. “I cannot say the same of Mr. Trump. His comments have reached a new low in American politics. His attack on veterans make him unfit to be Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Armed Forces, and he should immediately withdraw from the race for President.”

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said he does not owe John McCain an apology for saying the Arizona senator is only a war hero “because he was captured.”

Trump told Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week” that he won’t be pulling out of the presidential race over his comments, which he made Saturday during a campaign event in Iowa. Trump said he left to a “standing ovation” after speaking at the Family Leadership Council summit.

“When I left the room, it was a total standing ovation,” said Trump. “It was wonderful to see. Nobody was insulted.”

When speaking about McCain on Saturday, Trump said he likes “people who weren’t captured.” He didn’t back down when asked about the comment.

“People that fought hard and weren’t captured and went through a lot, they get no credit,” he said. “Nobody even talks about them. They’re like forgotten, and I think that’s a shame, if you want to know the truth.”

Before Trump’s comments Saturday, McCain had said the real estate mogul was firing up “crazies.” Trump had already found himself embroiled in controversy over comments he made last month regarding Mexican immigrants.

Raddatz asked Trump if McCain’s capture in Vietnam — where he spent five years as a prisoner of war and was beaten and tortured by the North Vietnamese — described a war hero. He reiterated what his campaign said following his comments Saturday — that he was disappointed in the Arizona senator because of how veterans are treated in the U.S.

“I’m very disappointed in John McCain because the vets are horribly treated in this country,” said Trump. “I’m fighting for the vets. I’ve done a lot for the vets.”

Trump said veterans were treated like “third-class citizens,” adding that McCain has “done nothing to help the vets.”

Trump didn’t serve in the Vietnam War after receiving four student deferments and an additional medical deferment after graduating from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School in 1968. He said he would have “proudly served” but wasn’t drafted because of his high lottery number.

“If I would have gotten a low number, I would have been drafted. I would have proudly served,” he said. “But I got a number, I think it was 356. That’s right at the very end. And they didn’t get — I don’t believe — past even 300, so I was — I was not chosen because of the fact that I had a very high lottery number.”

Asked if he would continue his pattern of “name-calling, using terms like ‘dummy,’ ‘loser,’ ‘total losers’ on Twitter and elsewhere” when he’s “criticized or attacked” if he was elected president, Trump told Raddatz he only gives it back to people who attack him.

“When people attack me, I let them have it back,” he said. “People are constantly attacking my hair. I don’t see you coming to my defense.”

Trump has come under criticism from numerous fellow 2016 candidates on both sides of aisle. Hillary Clinton called the attack on McCain “shameful.” Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry said the comments by Trump made him unfit to be president and said the reality TV star should withdraw from the race.

Caitlyn has been getting more attention than anyone in the family and perhaps that is part of what bothers Kylie. But also she feels incredibly alone lately and is barely coping. She used to be daddy’s girl but ever since her dad transitioned, Caitlyn does not seem to have the same time for Kylie that Bruce once did. It bothers her a lot and last night while everyone in the family was crying tears of joy, her tears were of sorrow.
 Kylie began her modeling career with the Sears line “Crush Your Style” and has since done photo shoots for OK! Magazine, Teen Vogue, and photographer Nick Saglimbeni. She also modeled for Avril Lavigne’s Abby Dawn Runway in 2011 for New York Fashion Week. Kylie has expressed an interest in acting but feels college is a greater priority. Kylie is a part of the Kardashian Kolors by O.P.I, she has 2 colors called “Wear Something Spar-Kylie” and “Rainbow in the S-Kylie”.

Not all of Caitlyn Jenner‘s kids are dealing with her transition gracefully.While the world has been on an inspiration high since Jenner’s AMAZING speech at the July 15 ESPYS, Kylie Jenner is reportedly not as thrilled. According to a source, Kylie has felt more “alone” than ever following Cait’s change.

Kylie Jenner has been breaking down into tears behind closed doors, weighed down by her parents’ divorce, Bruce Jenner’s transition into Caitlyn Jenner, and the rumors surrounding her 25-year-old boyfriend Tyga. According to a report by Hollywood Life, Kylie has been dealing with “all the drama in her life” once the cameras are off, a source revealed.

“Kylie is a real cool customer in public. She is a lot like her mom (Kris) in that it seems as though nothing phases her at all,” the source told Hollywood Life, adding: “She’s very good at putting herself together and projecting an image of total confidence. She makes it seems like she’s the happiest person in the world.”

Kim and Kanye Finally Picked The Name For Their Second Child. And it is not East or South

North West is going to be the only baby in the Kardashian-West family paying homage to a direction. In an all-new interview, Kim reveals exactly why she won’t be naming baby no. 2 South West. Click to LISTEN!

We’ve all heard the jokes about the name of Kim Kardashian, 34, and Kanye West’s second child, but a pregnant Kim is finally setting the record straight. The reality TV beauty told the NPR show Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me in a interview on June 13 that she most definitely will not be calling her new baby South West! She calls the rumors about her second child’s name being the opposite direction of North West, 1, totally “ridiculous.”


During the entertaining interview, which featured Kim at her comical best, the Keeping Up with the Kardashians stunner thinks naming her next child South would be just “so stupid.” Seriously, though, who wants to be named after an airline?

“I don’t like South West though, because North will always be better, and she has a better direction,” she told the hosts. “I wouldn’t do that [set them up in conflict with each other]. I don’t think we’ll go real post http://hollywoodlife.com/2015/06/13/kim-kardashian-second-baby-name-not-south-west-reason-interview-listen/ 

Kim was then asked if friends and family were suggesting names for her. “You’ll be surprised at all the names people do send us,” she revealed. “I mean, everyone keeps saying South, and I think that’s so stupid. It’s the stupidest thing ever,and just ridiculous.”

Should Kim Kardashian call her baby South West?
Yes
No

The rumor mill has been in overdrive about the sex of Kim’s baby. However, that’s something she is keeping close to her chest. “We actually haven’t told anyone the sex,” she said. “So I heard that we’re having a boy, I heard that we’re having twins, I heard that I’m not even carrying my own baby… I’ve heard so many things, and most of the information is not true.”

Kanye West Wants New Baby To Have His Genius Ideas & Kim Kardashian’s Beauty

As HollywoodLife.com previously reported, Kanye West, 38, doesn’t care about the sex of the baby. Another baby girl or a baby boy would make him equally happy. He just hopes it shares his genius ideas and Kim’s beauty!

“The man is thrilled to be a father again and can hardly contain himself. North West was one of the biggest blessings of his life, and to experience that type of joy and abundance again is just remarkable,” a source told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Kanye couldn’t care less about the baby’s sex. The most important thing to him is that the baby is born healthy. No matter what sex it is, he just wants the baby to have his musical talents and genius ideas, as well as Kim’s beauty, intellect and charm.”

What d’you think, HollywoodLifers? Should Kim complete the set and name her kid South? Let us know!

Over time, we assume that our partner knows us so well that we don’t need to ask for what we want. What happens when we make this assumption? Expectations are set and just as quickly, they get deflated. Those unmet expectations can leave us questioning the viability of our partnership and connection. Keep in mind that “asking for what you want” extends to everything from emotional to sexual wants.
