When Suri Cruise Turns 10

Suri Cruise is 10 now! Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise's daughter celebrated double digits on Monday and Katie shared a piece of artwork she made -- or perhaps the two made together -- on Instagram. "So grateful for my favorite day of the year!!!!!!" the 37-year-old actress captioned the pic. "Happy Birthday to my sweet angel Suri" It's been a decade since the world first got a look at Suri, bundled up in Cruise's coat, on the cover of Vanity Fair in October 2006. "She has Kate's lips and eyes," Tom said in the pages of the magazine. "I think she looks like Kate." Katie chimed in, "I think she has Tom's eyes. I think she looks like Tom." Over the years, a lot has changed -- the couple once infamously known as TomKat divorced in 2012, for one -- and Suri certainly hasn't lived the life of a typical little girl, all paparazzi and Scientology scandals considered. Now, Suri is all grown up and really is t...

Trump, Clinton Ready to New York Wins

Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton goes to the tight presidential race Tuesday night, winning their respective primaries in New York — and sending a message to their rivals that their campaigns are back on track after recent stumbles. Trump, in his home state, notched what appeared to be his biggest victory yet. Speaking to cheering supporters Tuesday night at Trump Tower, he declared: “We don’t have much of a race anymore.” “[Texas] Senator [Ted] Cruz is just about mathematically eliminated,” Trump claimed. “We’re really, really rockin’.” Indeed, Cruz's poor showing left him with no mathematical chance of clinching the nomination before the Republican convention in July, though Trump could still end up short of the needed 1,237 needed to seal victory before the gathering. With 94 percent of precincts reporting, Trump had garnered 60 percent of the vote, his highest total in any state. He had claimed at least 89 of New York's 95 Republican de...

Four-Month-Old baby Died in A Flight from London to Hong Kong

A four-month-old girl died while travelling on a Cathay Pacific Airways flight from London to Hong Kong. A Cathay Pacific Boeing B747-400 Aircraft is towed down the runway. (Reuters) The infant is believed to have been suffering from a gastrointestinal disease when the family boarded the plane at Heathrow on Sunday. She fell unconscious during the flight and her parents - who were planning on visiting relatives in China – alerted cabin crew immediately. Another passenger – a nurse – started giving first aid to the baby. The pilot made an emergency landing at Almaty Airport in Kazakhstan and paramedics rushed to the scene. But the baby could not be saved and she was pronounced dead soon after the emergency landing. Her mother – believed to be a 36-year-old Chinese-French national - and father - continued the journey to Hong Kong with their dead child. Fel...

Marco Rubio's Strategy Points at Donald Trump

Sen. Marco Rubio almost certainly won't keep all the delegates he won before quitting his presidential campaign, but he may keep enough to realize his top goal of denying Donald Trump the GOP nomination. A critical question is whether the Republican National Committee changes its current rules to allow Rubio's name to appear on the first ballot at the party's national convention in July. But even if it doesn't, at least some of the 171 delegates Rubio claimed before leaving the race last month will be barred from voting for anyone else — Trump, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz or Ohio Gov. John Kasich — on that first ballot. And that could be instrumental in keeping Trump from getting the 1,237 delegates needed to claim the nomination. The biggest beneficiary of that strategy figures to be Trump's chief rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. There's almost no chance Cruz will get to 1,237 delegates before the convention either, but anti-Trump forces seem to slowly be coa...

Suicide Squad:Harley Quinn is the Most Manipulative Member of the Team

After Batman v Superman having pretty much wrapped up at the box office, DC fans’ attention has turned to the next comic book-based property, Suicide Squad. Although there are numerous villains in the film - including Will Smith’s Deadshot and Jared Leto’s Joker - the most hotly anticipated is Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn. Having wowed audiences in the trailers, many are wondering whether the character’s relationship with the Joker will be as dark and twisted as it was in the Batman animated show. It seems it will be. Speaking to LA Times at Cinema Con, Robbie revealed that her adaptation of the character sticks closely to the original story, with Quinn using her psychiatric past to manipulate other members of the team. "She's definitely one of the more unpredictable members of the squad," Robbie told the paper. "She also used to be a psychiatrist so she has an extensive knowledge of mental illnesses and how to manipulate people. “I’m sorry, we...

Bernie Sanders : 4 Percent of Income to Charity in 2014

Bernie Sanders released his 2014 tax return Friday, revealing that he mostly lives off a six-figure government salary and donated about 4 percent of his family's income to charitable causes. Sanders and his wife, Jane, donated $8,350 to charity while reporting an adjusted gross income of about $205,000 that year, according to his tax return. The share of his family's income that went to charity was about half the percentage of income that his primary opponent, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, gave to charitable groups. The Sanders campaign released the return a day after a heated Democratic presidential debate in which Sanders pledged to release the single return but hesitated to say when he would release additional years of his taxes. During Thursday night's debate in Brooklyn, Clinton was asked if she would release transcripts of paid speeches she gave to Wall Street banks. Clinton argued that she is...
