The plane carrying more than 100 passengers and crew overshot a runway on the Indonesian resort island of Bali on Saturday and crashed into the sea, injuring nearly two dozen people, officials said.
All 101 people on board a plane operated by Lion Air survived after it crashed into sea while landing at an airport in Bali on Saturday, officials said.
Evacuation of the people on board has been completed and so far there is no casualty, Indonesian transport minister E.E. Mangindaan told Xinhua by phone.

Most of the rescued people have been rushed to a nearby hospital for checking of their condition, Mangindaan said.
"All (the people on board) are safe. 51 of them are now in a waiting room in a hospital for checking of their physical and mental condition," he said.
The minister said that the tail of the plane was broken after the plane overshot the runway and plunged into sea.
The accident happened when the budget airlines plane from Bandung, the capital of West Java, was trying to land at an airport in Denpasar, the capital of Bali, at about two p.m. local time, Herry Bakti Gumai, director general for air transport at the transport ministry, told Xinhua by phone.

Rihanna and Chris Brown: Back Together!


Rihanna and Chris Brown Instagram


The "Stay" singer posted a cute photo of herself and Breezy ridin' with the top down in the California sun, with the caption "This s--t look like a toupee,"
That's a quote from Brown's hit "Look At Me Now."
While the ups and downs of Rihanna and Chris Brown can be difficult, even frustrating, for those who try to figure out what's going on, this much is clear:
  • Chris has spoken often and in detail about their love of late.
  • They look every bit the happy couple in the image above.
Was their recent breakup just a blip on the radar?
Who knows, but they seem to do this a lot, and there was no reported straying by either party, just busy schedules blamed, so a reconciliation isn't so crazy.
Moreover, Brown was spotted backstage and in the VIP section at her concert in L.A. this week ... the one where she supposedly mused on their split. So much for that. Heck, maybe he even took the famous Rihannaing pic! Wouldn't be out of the question if they were together on that "epic" night.
Whatever the case, they may not even know if they're together or not half the time, but there's clearly a connection there that's not going away anytime soon.

Braless is Best? Study Says Bras Make Breasts Saggier!


Women Bras Study


Marilyn Monroe slept in a bra to keep her assets firm and perky, according to Hollywood lore. A new study out of France suggests it might have been more effective for the screen goddess to go "au naturel" instead.
Researchers spent 15 years studying the breasts of over 330 French women, and concluded that wearing a bra does not prevent sagging or ease back pain as commonly thought. "Medically, physiologically, anatomically—breasts gain no benefit from being denied gravity, Professor Jean-Denis Rouillon, from the University of Besançon, told France Info Radio. "On the contrary, they get saggier with a bra."
Taking measurements with a caliper, the researchers found that by not wearing a bra, muscles around the breast actually strengthened and the "nipple raised 7mm per year toward the shoulder". However, the scientists did not recommend all women abandon their bras since their muscles had probably already degraded.
While the phenomenon of "bra burning" has been greatly exaggerated, in 1970s it was not only politically correct but also fashionable to go braless in the United States. Since then, women have been trussing themselves into increasingly structured—and expensive—undergarments. According to Business Week, the women's intimates' industry generates over $11 billion a year in revenues.
The results of the study may be intriguing, but it's doubtful that droves of American women are going to ditch their bras anytime soon. For one thing, a study by the Center for Talent Innovation found that women who jiggle around the work place are deemed less worthy to become executives by both men and and other women.
Furthermore, the study focused on women ages 18 to 35. According to France's English-language news site The Local, one 28-year-old participant reported multiple benefits: "I breathe more easily, I carry myself better, and I have no back pain." We'll see what she says at age 50.

Jay-Z responds to Cuba controversy on new song!

Beyoncé and Jay-Z Cuba trip Open Letter rap song - Daily Celebrity News


Jay-Z has responded to criticism over his controversial trip to Cuba by posting a new song,Open Letter.
The rapper and his wife Beyonce visited the country for their fifth wedding anniversary, despite the existence of a US travel embargo to the region, which has been in place since the 1960s.
Republican politicians publically attacked the couple for the move, claiming that the pair did not have permission to travel to the country.
However, it has since been confirmed by the US Treasury that their holiday had been sanctioned and was therefore legal. The White House have since released a statement denying that President Obama, who is famously friends with the pop couple, had anything to do with the sanctioning.  
To the politicians who are calling for an investigation into the legality of the trip, Jay-Z raps on Open Letter: "They wanna give me jail time and a fine. Fine, let me commit a real crime."
The track emerged on the rapper's Life + Times blog yesterday.
