Whoa! Tom Daley And Dustin Lance Black Caught Cozying Up To Skin-Crawling Lizards
Trouble in paradise? Looks like lithe Olympic diver Tom Daley and fiancé Dustin Lance Black have been having some fun on the side.
The two were recently caught on film canoodling with a pair of lizards, neither of whom have been identified.

The incident, which occurred in a Florida park, reveals the creatures were all over a shirtless Daley and his accommodating partner.
One lizard tenderly clutches Daley’s knee, while another is fondly tethered to Black’s arm.

Woman Panics After Hubby Sleeps With Two Guys On Stag Week. One Was The Groom, Bro.
Woman Panics After Hubby Sleeps With Two Guys On Stag Week. One Was The Groom, Bro.
He’s not gay. He’s not even bi. He swears. It’s just that he went a little haywire on the drinking and drugging, and one thing led to another, and–well–that other thing?–it was nothing. Just sleeping with two guys. No biggie.

That’s the gist of one woman’s tawdry turmoil, as told to The Mirror‘s plucky advice columnist, “Dear Coleen”:
My husband went to Magaluf on a stag week recently and when he got back he confessed that he’d got drunk and slept with another man, blaming the fact that he was “so out of it”.
He told me he woke up and screamed when he realized he was in a hotel bed with this guy lying next to him.
But he also admitted he’d got very drunk on another occasion and slept with the groom (his friend), who surprisingly enough isn’t angry and just said: “It’s just a bunch of stuff that happened. ‘I’m not bothered I slept with you, we did it and that’s it.’”
Her husband probably wishes what happened in Magaluf had stayed in Magaluf, because now his confession has left the relationship in shambles. The wife and mother of his four-year-old son wants to forgive him, but she claims “it feels hard,” no doubt echoing her husband’s ecstatic yelps over the course of the weekend.

Now, her husband and their mutual friend is requesting that she keep this indiscretion from the bride-to-be, but she’s not sure that’s the way to go.
So, what’s Coleen’s advice? Surprisingly even-keeled, if a bit naive.
First, she doesn’t think she should tell the bride to be, because “it’s up to her fiancé to tell her. The chances are she’ll shoot the messenger and still marry him anyway.”
But Colleen feels this young woman’s pain, for sure. “The trouble with confessions is that while they unburden the confessor, the problem is dumped on the other person to deal with.”
She urges the distraught woman to keep in mind her husband was honest, or at the very least honest–esque, and the best course of action now is to setting boundaries. “Number one is that you don’t want him going on any more stag dos because you can’t trust him in that environment.”
She also thinks her husband should “keep some distance between himself and the groom.” Oh, and they might want to consider couple’s counseling.
“If you realize you can’t get past it,” she says, “then at least you’ll know you tried your very best before walking away.”
It’s certainly generous advice, but we suspect we’d be particularly hung up about the fact that these were two separate occasions. Why did he only scream when he woke up after the second tryst?
Maybe he thinks sleeping with one guy is par for the course at a stag party, but two exceeds the limits of good taste.

Pat McCrory at Trump Rally: Just Leave ‘If You Have Any Questions’ About Restrooms – WATCH
North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory opened a Donald Trump rally in Winston-Salem with a joke about bathrooms that won’t seem so funny when he’s voted out of office in November.
Said McCrory:
“All right, let’s be safe now. We’ve got a big crowd, so if you need to leave suddenly, we’ve got exits this way, exits this way and exits this way…And if any of you need to use the restrooms…And if you have any questions go to the Philadelphia convention where all the Democrats are.”
Watch:
The Washington Examiner reports:
North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper, who is running for governor, said McCrory’s jokes and the law are “no laughing matter.”
The legislation has already cost North Carolina jobs and revenue, as entertainers cancel their shows in the state and businesses pull out of deals.
Last week, the NBA pulled the 2017 All-Star Game from Charlotte, which would have earned the area an estimated $100 million. McCrory called that decision by the NBA “total P.C. B.S.”

Today, GLAAD announced that it will be honoring Marc Benioff, Chairman and CEO of Salesforce, at GLAAD Gala San Francisco on September 8, 2016. Recode executive editor Kara Swisher will present Marc with the award.
Benioff has been a vocal supporter of LGBT equality, especially following a series of anti-LGBT, discriminatory laws, starting in Indiana in 2015. As soon as Indiana Gov. Mike Pence signed the state’s so-called “Religious Freedom Restoration Act,” Benioff vowed to use the power of Salesforce to urge a repeal of the Indiana law. The company canceled events, made plans to pull investments from outside of the state and Benioff even offered $50,000 relocation packages to employees that felt unsafe or unwelcomed in the state.
In an interview with CNN, Benioff stated, “All I want is to live in a great nation, which I do. And I want, as part of that nation, to have equality for all and that’s especially important for our customers and employees.” That’s key to Benioff’s strategy of Chairman and CEO; he believes that the people most essential to the success of Salesforce are not the shareholders, but the stakeholders: customers and employees. Benioff is setting an example for all companies that should be listening to the concerns of their stakeholders and taking a stand. In fact, Benioff is proving that taking a stand to support stakeholders isn’t dangerous to his company, but will actually increase revenue.
Benioff’s support didn’t end after the Indiana law was amended to specifically prohibit discrimination against LGBT people. Salesforce has continued to loudly stand up against anti-LGBT bills and laws as they arise across the country.
We are forced to dramatically reduce our investment in IN based on our employee’s & customer’s outrage over the Religious Freedom Bill.

“Marc Benioff is an innovator not just in technology and business, but also in his advocacy to advance acceptance for the LGBT community,” said Sarah Kate Ellis, GLAAD President & CEO. “He is at the forefront of the corporate movement to stop discriminatory anti-LGBT bills across the country and his commitment to fairness and equality is steadfast.”
Benioff will be receiving the Ric Weiland Award at GLAAD Gala San Francisco, an event to honor innovators in the Bay Area who are advancing acceptance for LGBT people. The Ric Weiland Award specifically honors an innovator in tech and new media and is named after Ric Weiland, a computer software pioneer and philanthropist. Together with his surviving partner Mike Schaefer, Weiland is known for his dedication to LGBT and HIV and AIDS organizations.
GLAAD Gala San Francisco will be taking place at City View at Metreon on September 8, 2016. The event will be hosted by Aisha Tyler. More information about the gala and ticket information can be found here.
