Mother-In-Law’s Horrible Emails Go Viral
British mother sent to her future daughter-in-law. The subject of the correspondence: the bride-to-be’s “staggering uncouthness and lack of grace.”
According to the Evening Standard, Carolyn Bourne sent three harshly-worded missives in one day to Heidi Withers, who is engaged to marry Bourne’s stepson Freddie, after the couple spent a weekend at the Bourne’s family home.
Apparently the weekend did not go as well as Heidi might have hoped, as her future mother-in-law a.k.a. Emily Post Wannabe criticized her manners, her taste and her parents’ finances.
Below is the email message that has been most widely circulated, as Heidi sent the email to a few of her own friends, who then sent it across the Internet.
Watch Green Mile Actor, 51, Marries 16-Year-Old Aspiring Country Singer Video
Hollywood has seen its fair share of odd couplings, but this one is so out there even the newlyweds know it’s a little weird.
Doug Hutchison, a character actor best known for roles in The Green Mile, Lost and The X-Files, married aspiring country singer Courtney Alexis Stodden on May 20 in Las Vegas.
He is 51. She is 16.
Is there something fishy about it? In an exclusive statement to E! News, the couple insists there’s not.
With Stodden, a former beauty pageant queen (she was in the running for Miss Teen Washington USA last year), trying to position herself as a potential Nashville star, you might think there’s more to the story than middle-age actor marrying pretty teenager (and that’s a lot of story, itself). However, the newlyweds tell us they’re just mad about each other.
“We’re aware that our vast age difference is extremely controversial,” the couple said through their spokeswoman.
“But we’re very much in love and want to get the message out there that true love can be ageless.”

Jilted Chinese Bride Suicide (VIDEO)
Chinese college student identified only as Miss Li leaned out from a seventh-story apartment window in China’s Jilin province after her fiancé wed another woman, MSNBC is reporting. Miss Li, 22, had threatened to take her life after her boyfriend of four years broke up with her just before the big day, but she was grabbed by waiting rescuers before she could jump from the ledge, which reportedly stands 80 feet above the ground.
Local community officer Guo Zhongfan, who assisted in the rescue, was modest about his efforts. “I did what anyone would have done,” he told Reuters. Though she did not sustain any injuries in the incident, Miss Li was taken to a hospital.
Al-Qaeda Osama Bin Laden New releases posthumous message
In the message, he praises the revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt and speaks of a “rare historic opportunity” for Muslims to rise up.
The 12-minute audio message appeared on a video posted on Islamist websites, and has been translated by the US monitoring group SITE intelligence.
Bin Laden was shot dead by US Navy Seals at a Pakistan compound on 2 May.
Speculation is mounting that al-Qaeda has appointed a former Egyptian army colonel, Saif al-Adel, as temporary leader to replace Bin Laden.
Adel was once Bin Laden’s security chief, and is suspected of involvement in the 1998 US embassy bombings in East Africa, training the Somali fighters who killed 18 US servicemen in Mogadishu in 1993, and instructing some of the 11 September 2001 hijackers.
He fled to Iran from Afghanistan after the US-led invasion in 2003, and was reportedly held under house arrest near Tehran. Reports at the end of last year said he may have been released and made his way to northern Pakistan.
Some Western analysts have expressed scepticism over reports of his appointment. Bin Laden’s long-time deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri, also Egyptian, is thought to be the front-runner for the role.

Prince William and Catherine Middleton have set up a charitable gift fund for those who very generously may wish to donate to charity to help the couple celebrate their wedding.
Wedding of Prince William of Wales and Kate Middleton is scheduled to take place at Westminster Abbey on 29 April 2011. Prince William, who is second in the line of succession to Queen Elizabeth II, first met Middleton in 2001, while he and Middleton were studying at the University of St Andrews. Their engagement, on 20 October 2010, was announced on 16 November 2010. After the wedding, the couple intend to continue residing on the Isle of Anglesey in Wales, where Prince William is based as an RAF Search and Rescue pilot.
Prince William is the elder son of Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales, and grandson of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. As such, he is second, behind his father, in the line of succession to the throne in 16 independent states known as the Commonwealth realms. William was educated at Ludgrove School, Eton College, and the University of St Andrews, after which he was commissioned from Sandhurst in the Blues and Royals regiment of the Household Cavalry. He later transferred to the Air Force and went on to become a full time pilot with the Search and Rescue Force.
Catherine “Kate” Middleton is the first of three children born to Carole and Michael Middleton. She was educated at St Andrew’s School in Pangbourne, Marlborough College, and the University of St Andrews. After graduating, she worked in retail and then as an accessories buyer/catalogue photographer at her parents’ business. She is primarily of English descent, but with a few distant Scottish and French Huguenot ancestors. Her paternal family came from Leeds, West Yorkshire, while her mother’s maternal family, the Harrisons, were working-class labourers and miners from County Durham.
The couple met while undergraduates at the University of St Andrews, where they both lived at St Salvator’s Hall during their first year, after which they shared accommodation in the town for two years. They are fifteenth cousins—having Sir Thomas Fairfax and his wife, Agnes, as common ancestors—and are possibly twelfth cousins once removed, circumstantial evidence suggesting that they are both descended from Sir Thomas Leighton and Elizabeth Knollys
route of the bride and groom goes between Buckingham Palace and the Westminster Abbey, by The Mall, passing Clarence House, by Horse Guards Road, Horse Guards Parade, through Horse Guards Arch, Whitehall, the south side of Parliament Square, and Broad Sanctuary.
Wedding service
St James’s Palace announced on 5 January that the ceremony is to start at 11:00 and that Middleton will arrive at the abbey by car rather than by carriage, which is the traditional transport for royal brides. The planned route is along The Mall, through the Horse Guards Parade and down Whitehall to the abbey. After the ceremony, the bridal couple will return along the same route by carriage to a reception hosted by the Queen at Buckingham Palace. The Prince of Wales is to host a private dinner that evening.
In a break with royal tradition, the groom is to have a best man—his brother, Prince Harry—rather than a supporter, while the bride has chosen her sister, Pippa, as maid of honour. The couple will have four bridesmaids—Lady Louise Windsor, the seven-year old daughter of the Earl and Countess of Wessex; Margarita Armstrong-Jones, the eight-year old daughter of Viscount and Viscountess Linley; Grace van Cutsem, the three-year old daughter of the couple’s friend Hugh van Cutsem; and Eliza Lopes, the three-year old granddaughter of the Duchess of Cornwall. Two page boys are also to participate: William Lowther-Pinkerton, the ten-year old son of William’s private secretary, and Tom Pettifer, the eight-year old son of William and Harry’s former nanny, ‘Tiggy’ Pettifer.
The Dean of Westminster will officiate for most of the service, with Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, conducting the marriage ceremony itself and Richard Chartres, the Bishop of London, giving the sermon. It has long been traditional for the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Church of England’s most senior bishop, to officiate at the weddings of England’s monarchs and future monarchs, but as Chartres is a close friend of the Prince of Wales, he was invited to take part in the ceremony.
Clarence House announced that two choirs, one orchestra and a fanfare team will perform the music at the wedding service of Prince William and Middleton at Westminster Abbey. These are the Westminster Abbey Choir, Chapel Royal Choir and London Chamber Orchestra, and a fanfare team of the Central Band of the Royal Air Force. The choirs will directed by James O’Donnell, Organist and Master of the Choristers at Westminster Abbey. The Abbey’s Sub Organist, Robert Quinney, will play the organ. The Organist, Choir Master and Composer at Her Majesty’s Chapel Royal is Andrew Gant. The London Chamber Orchestra will be conducted by Christopher Warren-Green, who is its Music Director and Principal conductor. The fanfare team will perform under the direction of Wing Commander Duncan Stubbs.
Reception

The East front of the palace contains this well-known balcony on which the Royal Family traditionally congregate to greet crowds outside. Guests will be served with canapés at the Reception. The Official Harpist to the Prince of Wales, the well-known Claire Jones, will perform at the reception. The Reception is expected to finish in the mid-afternoon.
Private dinner

Guest list
Main article: List of wedding guests of Prince William of Wales and Kate Middleton
On 16 and 17 February, three sets of guest lists were sent out in the name of the Queen. As William is not the heir apparent, protocol has dictated that many guests (or their successors in office) who were invited to the wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer in 1981 need not be invited to William’s wedding. More than half of the guests will be family and friends of the couple, though there will be a significant number of Commonwealth leaders (including the governors-general who represent the Queen in Commonwealth realms other than the UK, prime ministers of the Commonwealth realms, and heads of government of other Commonwealth countries), members of religious organisations, the diplomatic corps, several military officials, members of the British Royal Household, members of foreign royal families, and representatives of William’s charities and others with whom William has worked on official business. Although St James’s Palace declined to publish the names of those invited, a breakdown of guests was published by category−the list made no mention of foreign heads of state, though it was announced that about 40 members of foreign royal families had been invited.
The first list, consisting of about 1,900 people, is of attendees to the ceremony in the abbey. The second list of approximately 600 people is of those invited to the luncheon reception at Buckingham Palace, hosted by the Queen. The final list, containing about 300 names, is for the evening dinner hosted by the Prince of Wales.
The wedding cake
The wedding cake will have a strong British floral theme, using elements of the Joseph Lambeth technique. It will be a multi-tiered traditional fruit cake decorated with cream and white icing. The Lambeth technique is based on a style of decorating that was popular in England where chefs and decorators would use a lot of intricate piping to create 3-D scrollwork, leaves, flowers, and other decoration. The method is still popular today and is frequently used by wedding cake designers and decorators to create ornate wedding cakes. The cake designer Fiona Cairns was chosen in February 2011 to create the wedding cake. Furthermore, McVitie’s will create a special cake from chocolate biscuit for the reception at Buckingham Palace. The chocolate biscuit cake will be made from a Royal Family recipe and was specially requested by Prince William.
Broadcasting
It has been estimated that the wedding will be watched on television and Internet streaming by some two billion people. ITV have picked Julie Etchingham and Philip Schofield for their coverage. On the day of the wedding Daybreak will be broadcast from outside Buckingham Palace. BBC coverage will be hosted by Huw Edwards. CNN is to dispatch a crew of 125, including cameramen and reporters, to cover the ceremony.
In the United States, which in the Eastern Time Zone is five hours behind British Summer Time, the wedding will occur within the time usually taken up by network breakfast television programmes. NBC will fold in coverage of the wedding into a special seven-hour edition of Today hosted by that programme’s presenters, which will start at 4 am Eastern Time on the 29th and will be carried live across all time zones, and will use footage from ITV, which partners with NBC for UK news coverage. ABC will fold in wedding coverage into a six-hour extended edition of Good Morning America using video from partner BBC with evening anchor Diane Sawyer and Barbara Walters, while CBS’s coverage will be hosted by evening anchor Katie Couric as part of an extended Early Show. Field correspondents for the Wedding include CBS’s London-based Vicki Barker and Larry Miller, and Steve Futterman visiting from Los Angeles. Fox’s plans are unknown as of yet (that network has no traditional national breakfast show and leaves the time to their affiliates for their own morning news), but it can be assumed that affiliates will be receiving Fox News coverage augmented by Fox’s UK partner channel Sky News. In addition, the three major cable news networks, CNN, Fox News Channel and MSNBC will also feature extended coverage, while the cable network BBC America will air uninterrupted coverage direct from BBC One.
On the radio, live coverage from London is being planned by CBS News, anchored by Dan Raviv, host of the CBS News Weekend Roundup. In addition to any radio stations that might carry the coverage, it will appear on an iPhone/iPad app titled CBS Radio News, and at Radio.com by clicking News and then CBS Radio News.
In Canada, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation will also carry BBC coverage hosted by National anchor Peter Mansbridge, while CTV will cover the ceremony with Lloyd Robertson and Lisa LaFlamme joined by comedienne Tracy Ullman; coverage on that network will also be simulcast on CTV News Channel and CP24.
Video-sharing website YouTube has announced that the British royal wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William will be shown live on the website’s live streaming channel.
The live stream will focus on the April 29 wedding procession and the marriage ceremony at Westminster Abbey as well as the balcony kiss
