7 Signs You’re Carrying Too Much Emotional Responsibility for Others New

7 Signs You’re Carrying Too Much Emotional Responsibility for Others

1. You monitor everyone’s mood before checking your ownYou enter a room and immediately scan faces, voices and silences for trouble. Only after deciding everyone else is okay do you notice that you are tense, tired or upset.Being observant can be caring, but constant monitoring keeps your attention pointed outward. Try pausing before responding and asking yourself, “What am I feeling right now?” Your emotions deserve recognition even when someone nearby is having a difficult day.2. You overexplain boundaries to make them feel painlessA simple no becomes a long presentation designed to prevent disappointment. You provide reasons, apologies and reassurance, hoping the other person will approve of the boundary before you enforce it.Clear communication matters, but a boundary does not need unanimous support to be valid. Practice using one honest sentence, such as, “I can’t take that on this week.” Discomfort may still arise, and that does not automatically mean you have been unkind.3. Rest feels selfish when someone else needs helpYou may cancel your quiet evening the moment someone asks for support, even when the situation is not urgent. Their need feels legitimate; your exhaustion feels negotiable.This pattern can make rest seem like something you must earn after everyone else is satisfied. Instead, treat your energy as a real limit, not a moral test. You can care about someone and still say, “I’m not available tonight, but I can check in tomorrow.”4. You rush to rescue people from consequencesWhen someone forgets, delays or makes a poor choice, you instinctively step in: finishing the task, smoothing over the conflict or inventing an excuse on their behalf. It may reduce immediate tension, but it can quietly turn their responsibility into your workload.Before intervening, ask whether the person is truly unable to handle the outcome or merely uncomfortable. Allowing someone to repair their own mistake can be more respectful than automatically rescuing them.5. Your needs shrink whenever they might disappoint someoneYou say the restaurant does not matter, the schedule is fine and the hurtful comment was “nothing.” Over time, repeated self-erasure can make it difficult to know what you genuinely want.Start with low-stakes honesty. Choose the film, request a different time or calmly name what bothered you. Expressing a preference is not the same as controlling the situation. Healthy relationships have room for two sets of needs, including yours.6. You rehearse conversations to manage every possible reactionBefore raising a concern, you mentally test dozens of versions. You search for wording so perfect that the other person cannot become angry, sad or defensive. Preparation can help, but no script can control another person’s response.Focus on being respectful and accurate rather than emotionally foolproof. State what happened, how it affected you and what you need next. Their reaction may give you useful information, but it is not entirely yours to manage.7. Resentment appears where honest limits should have beenYou keep helping, agreeing and accommodating, then feel irritated when nobody notices the cost. That resentment does not necessarily mean you are uncaring. It may be information that you have repeatedly said yes while privately wanting to say no.Instead of judging the feeling, trace it back to the unspoken limit. Ask what agreement needs to change. Honest boundaries made earlier are usually kinder than silent sacrifice followed by anger, withdrawal or emotional distance.

Black band tattoos can signify mourning—or carry an explicit sexual meaning New

Black band tattoos can signify mourning—or carry an explicit sexual meaning

Updated 12:00 10 Oct 2026 GMT+1Published 14:18 3 May 2026 GMT+1Did you already know that the minimalistic ink carries a deeper meaning?When it comes to ink, some people tend to lean towards sentimental tattoos with meaning, perhaps as a tribute to a pet, a family member, or a truly significant moment in their lives.Others? Well, apparently they’re getting thick black bands that wrap around their biceps and forearms without realising they may convey a deeper, X-rated meaning.If you’ve been debating whether to get one of these bad boys on your arm because you thought they ‘looked cool’, then go ahead—but be prepared for it to actually be a silent sexuality signal.Tattoos, believed to have been practised globally since the Neolithic era, are a form of body modification made by inserting ink, dyes, or pigments into the thick middle layer of the skin (the dermis).AdvertThe tattoo is said to have several meanings - including a sexual one (X)While they’re often a pain to get, they can be much more difficult to remove; experts suggest you may need up to 15 laser sessions to totally erase the art from your body.Therefore, it’s always good to hop on the internet and quickly check if the ink you fancy is going to do what you want it to.'It changed the way I look at everyone that has one'Social media users have recently been debating the meaning behind black banded tattoos on X, formerly known as Twitter, after one person shared a post explaining how stunned they were when they found out about the lewd connotations it has."When I learnt the meaning of this tattoo, it changed the way I look at everyone that has one," they wrote. "The higher [it gets], the wilder it gets."Nearly four million people saw the post at the time, and a good chunk were left baffled, claiming they had no idea the innocent-looking inking had an explicit meaning to some.One person said: "What does it mean? My friend has it but I'm not sure he knows the actual meaning."Another admitted they were 'really curious', while a third joked: "How far you can reach into the Pringles can."FYI, that's something of a euphemism.What does a 'black band' tattoo really mean?The simplicity of the design is said to permit folks to make their 'personal interpretation' of what it means to them (Getty Stock Image)According to the Solong Tattoo Company, the two band arm tattoo has 'profound meanings that appeal to many', including loss and mourning as well as strength and luck.It explains that it is also a popular choice among tattoo lovers because it is minimalistic, while adding that the two bands can also 'represent different stages or transitions in one's life'.Some people also get this design to reflect their 'cultural roots', but the Solong Tattoo Company also notes that the simplicity of it 'allows for personal interpretation'.Which is all very lovely - but apparently, the two bands have been repurposed by certain folks to be a 'depth marker' which measures how far someone can reach inside their lover's rear end.And, if the rumours are true, it was gay adult actor Brent Everett who can be thanked for bringing another meaning to the popular tattoo,A lot of people are only just finding out about the connotations that the inking has (Reddit)Queer fiction writer Lewis Laney previously shared a TikTok explaining that Everett was the inspiration behind his band tattoo.He also admitted he had no idea about the alternative meaning it has.In the video, originally shared in 2023, he explained: "I have a double arm band tattoo and I often get asked by gay men what it means... they assume that it has something to do with f**ting."The origins of these tattoos allegedly do come from f**ting and apparently, it’s how far you can go. For me, that is not the case though."He explained he got the inking at the age of 30 after seeing it on Everett's arm, saying: "I still like it, it looks good and it's the only tattoo I've got and probably the only one I'll ever have."Laney then raised a valid point, as he added: "I often say to people, if you see people with an anchor tattoo, do you automatically assume that they are a sailor? Or just that they like anchors?"So, although you can't just surmise that someone enjoys getting elbow deep if they've got two bands tattooed on their arm, it might well be the case.The more you know, right?Featured Image Credit: XTopics: Sex and Relationships, LGBTQ, Art, Viral

Nach Covid-Strafbefehl: Mann provoziert Granit Xhaka vor einem Supermarkt New

Nach Covid-Strafbefehl: Mann provoziert Granit Xhaka vor einem Supermarkt

Am Samstagnachmittag gehts für Granit Xhaka nach der Posse rund um seinen Zertifikatsbetrug weiter mit dem Liga-Alltag. Mit seinem Verein Sunderland empfängt der Nati-Captain Brighton zu Hause im Stadium of Light. Zuvor gibts für den 34-Jährigen eine unschöne Begegnung beim Einkaufen. Wie ein auf Social Media kursierendes Video zeigt, ist Xhaka mit seiner Frau Leonita unterwegs, als ihn jemand vor einem Supermarkt erkennt und anpöbelt. Ein mutmasslicher Fan von Sunderlands Erzrivalen Newcastle United provoziert den Schweizer und zeigt ihm den Mittelfinger. Wie im Video zu hören ist, ruft der Mann auch mehrfach das Wort «Covid» in Richtung Xhaka – ein Seitenhieb wegen dessen publik gewordener Verfehlungen rund um ein käuflich erworbenes gefälschtes Covid-Zertifikat. Granit Xhaka stellt sich dem Provokateur entgegen Xhaka lässt die Pöbeleien nicht einfach so stehen und liefert sich mit dem Provokateur ein hitziges Wortgefecht. Leonita Xhaka versucht, die Situation zu deeskalieren, indem sie bemüht ist, ihren Ehemann ein wenig wegzuziehen. Der Nati-Captain geht letztlich weiter und schüttelt noch einem wohlgesinnten Passanten freundlich die Hand. Xhaka selbst äussert sich derzeit weder zu dem besagten Vorfall noch zu anderen Fragen rund um seinen Impf-Skandal – mit Ausnahme eines Statements zu seiner Verurteilung vor zwei Tagen. Am Donnerstag hatte Xhaka auf seinem Instagram-Account gleich selbst bekannt gegeben, dass  der Entscheid der Staatsanwaltschaft  bezüglich seiner Straftat vorliege. Per Strafbefehl sei der 34-jährige Basler zu einer bedingten Geldstrafe von 50 Tagessätzen à 3000 Franken verurteilt worden. «Das bedeutet: Die Strafe wird nicht vollzogen, wenn ich mir in dieser Zeit nichts zuschulden kommen lasse. Die Verfahrenskosten habe ich bezahlt», erklärt Xhaka dazu. Konkret bedeutet das: Wird der Nati-Captain in den zwei Jahren Probezeit nicht erneut straffällig, muss er ausser besagten Verfahrenskosten nichts bezahlen.

Samuel L. Jackson’s Film Contracts Reserve Time for Golf Twice a Week New

Samuel L. Jackson’s Film Contracts Reserve Time for Golf Twice a Week

Updated 09:00 10 Oct 2026 GMT+1Published 15:30 13 Sep 2024 GMT+1It's been in his contracts for more than two decadesSamuel L. Jackson has had one very specific demand written into his movie contracts since 2002 - and it has nothing to do with his salary.Hollywood stars are no strangers to making demands when they land a major movie role, with some contracts containing clauses that go far beyond the usual salary and billing negotiations.From elaborate trailer requirements to carefully negotiated working hours, celebrities can have plenty of perks written into their deals before cameras even start rolling.AdvertBut while some requests might seem fairly standard for A-listers, others are considerably more unusual.And one Hollywood heavyweight has reportedly had the same bizarre demand written into his movie contracts for more than two decades - and it has nothing to do with private jets, luxury accommodation or an enormous paycheck.In fact, it involves his favourite pastime, golf.In a 2017 interview with The New York Times, the actor broke down how he is on set, as well as how he is able to find time to enjoy his hobbies despite such a regularly busy schedule.In fact, the actor revealed there is one thing all of his projects have in common, as Jackson is also set to star in the upcoming thriller The Beast, adding another major project to his decades-spanning Hollywood career.He admitted he can 'be a hard taskmaster for some directors' and likes to call the shots on set.He's described as being 'allergic to extra takes', admitting: "I’m at that point where I can say: ‘Uh, you know, that’s not going to be in the movie, right? We already got it, we got it when we did this, that and that. I’m not going to do that."Samuel L Jackson has starred in a number of blockbusters over the years (Paras Griffin/Getty Images)In keeping with this desire for control, Jackson makes sure he has time for some leisurely activities around his filming schedule by having the option to go golfing twice a week written into all of his film contracts.The actor is a big golf fan, so much so that he admitted at the time to planning out his outfits for his games the night before.He's previously played golf with the likes of Anthony Anderson and Charles Barkley, as well as former presidents Bill Clinton and Donald J. Trump.Jackson often makes sure he has time to hit the green between shooting days (John Phillips/Getty Images for Shooting Stars Benefit)Jackson spoke further about the addition to his contracts when asked about it in an interview with CNN, where he explained: "Generally, they either move me onto a golf course so I can play or join a club so I can play, and they have to let me play at least twice a week.""I like golf because it's a perfect game for an only child like me."In this game, you get responsibility for everything you do bad, and you get all the credit for everything you do well."Featured Image Credit: Aura EntertainmentTopics: Samuel L Jackson, Film and TV, Celebrity, Sport

Braçe: I backed the territorial map to stay and push for reform New

Braçe: I backed the territorial map to stay and push for reform

Deputeti socialist Erion Braçe ka reaguar pas votës së tij pro Hartës së re Territoriale, duke kundërshtuar komentet e kryeministrit Edi Rama dhe duke theksuar se vendimi i tij nuk ishte mbështetje personale për të.Në një reagim të gjatë, Braçe shpjegon arsyet e votës, duke argumentuar se qëndrimi i tij lidhet me nevojën për një reformë të mirëfilltë të pushtetit vendor dhe jo thjesht me ndryshimin e hartës administrative.Ai ngre shqetësime për mënyrën se si ushtrohet disiplina brenda Partisë Socialiste dhe kërkon më shumë decentralizim, autonomi financiare dhe kompetenca për bashkitë.Braçe thekson gjithashtu se vota e tij është përgjegjësi ndaj qytetarëve që e kanë zgjedhur deputet dhe se nuk pranon që ajo të përdoret për të përligjur qëndrime apo mesazhe politike që nuk i përkasin atij.Postimi i Braçes:Dje i lashë të gjithë të flisnin për votën time të mëngjesit herët; foli Edi Rama me mburrjen e tij fyese dhe të përhershme, foli një i dytë që zgjohet në pikë të mëngjesit të bëjë këndezintelektualin, profesorin, mendimtarin dhe përfundoi të bëjë tredhësin eunuk të fjalëve që mahnisin dy vajza, foli një i tretë-palaço ky, me motrën nën akuzë si hajdute e veten në rolin e kirurgut të një shërbimi publik me halle e të vjedhur nga oligarku më i madh i sektorit që është edhe punëdhënësi i tij, foli edhe një njeri të cilin e çmoj pa masë-akademik, profesor por që nuk e kuptoj pse fyen po aq sa Edi Rama, të cilin e kritikon edhe me të drejtë çdo ditë.Tani, kam detyrimin të flas unë, të bëj më shumë se e folura e të shpjegoj votën time. E para, nuk ia lejoj Edi Ramës të flasë për votën time e me të të lëshojë flakërima ajri në mjedis kundër kujtdo që ka në mendje; nuk mund ta bëjë në emrin tim e duke përmendur votën time; unë, siç ai e pohoi në mbledhje nuk kam votuar pro tij dhe e kishte numëruar “shumë herë” këtë, ndaj ta lërë këtu, me kaq. Ajo që kërkoj prej tij dhe ai ia ka detyrim socialistëve sot, është të thotë se cilat “duar të pista, ca të dukshme e ca të padukshme, por të zbuluara tanimë”, më paskan ngatërruar mua. Derisa ta bëjë këtë, ka kohë të shohë tek vetja, po të dojë edhe rrotull tij por më shumë tek vetja dhe të pranojë, jo thjesht ta thotë për nevojë fjalie e teksti, ta pranojë se aktet, vendimet që nuk janë të duhurat dhe janë gabim, burojnë edhe nga mënyra se si ai mendon, si i imponon, si i argumenton si më e mira e mundshme kur mundësia nuk i është dhënë kërkujt, si e pranon që të tjerë përtej tij kanë të drejtë por jo tani e duke cenuar autoritetin e tij që duhet të jetë i padiskutueshëm, mu në atë formën që ta hedh fytyrës me arrogancë e të tjerëve mu si urdhër, “po si ti e paske mirë dhe i gjithë ky grup e ka gabim”, për të të relativizuar, zhvlerësuar, nëmur; ndërkohë që mund edhe të ishte, duke parë nga vetja, “pse ti e paske mirë dhe një shumicë edhe më e madhe se një grup e paska gabim”! E dyta, unë nuk kam gënjyer kënd që të jem gënjeshtar, nuk i kam dhënë besë kujt që të jem i pabesë; nuk kam tradhtuar kënd nga ata 25 mijë njerëz që më kanë votuar një vit më parë e plot të tjerë që më kanë kanë votuar në 30 vite. Të isha kundër projektligjit për ndarjen administrative e territoriale ishte zgjedhja ime, ardhur nga bindja e krijuar pa asnjë kërkesë e imponim, se ai ligj nuk ishte e nuk është reformë, por një vizatim i ri i territorit administrativ, i përkohshëm, i paqëndrueshëm dhe i pamjaftueshëm si reformë, mu siç Edi Rama e pranoi vetë në mbledhjen e grupit të deputetëve socialistë. Pra ishte qëndrimi im, është qëndrimi im dhe ishte e është i pandikuar nga cilido që sot e lidh me veten kur nuk ka asnjë lidhje me të, për më tepër kur është një robot i ndyrë në rrjet dhe asfare banor i prekur. E treta, të qenit deputet është punë dhe Kuvendi për mua është vendi im i punës. Edi Rama ka vizatuar listat dhe i vizatoi siç donte, në stilin e tij; punën ma kanë dhënë njerëzit me votë. 25 mijë njerëz-të parët socialistët ndër ta, të majtë dhe njerëz të zakonshëm në këtë qytet e jo vetëm, bashkë me ta, menduan që unë e bëj këtë punë dhe kanë të gjithë të drejtën të kërkojnë prej meje punën. Unë jam këtu, në Tiranë tani. Pooo kam një detyrim të pafundëm moral ndaj të gjithë atyre që ma kanë dhënë këtë punë në vite e të cilëve ju jam përgjigjur përulësisht, modestisht dhe me mirënjohje çdo ditë, atje ku ata banojnë e jetojnë, pa munguar asnjëherë, duke i mbrojtur çdo herë, duke bërë mirë e duke ndryshuar për mirë jetën për shumicën e tyre. Asnjëherë vetëm, por me ta, me shumë shokë e miq të kësaj rruge, të këtyre qeverive socialiste, të bashkive veçanërisht, për ta. E bëra edhe këtë herë, po e theksoj pa ma kërkuar kush, deri kur puna e dhënë nga të tjerë njerëz, mund të zhbëhej si e tillë nga ai rimodelimi antidemokratik që mbështetet në një model tjetër antidemokratik, “ose voto, ose je jashtë këtij grupi”, e që vijon me “ti mund të punosh me këtë qeveri në këtë grup, jo jashtë tij”. E thashë aty e do vijoj ta them se kur kam të drejtë, dhuna e disiplinës që vihet në veprim në rast nevoje, është deformimi më i madh antidemokratik që po i ndodh Partisë së Socialistëve. Të kesh të drejtë dhe këtë ta thonë në sy “po, ke të drejtë”, ndërkohë që kjo e drejtë bluhet nga disiplina e thuprës apo bariut-i vetëquajtur ky, që garanton jo të duhurën, është e papranueshme. E katërta, unë votova që të mos iki, por të qëndroj, të bëj punën dhe gjithkush që e njeh këtë punë e di fort mirë se kjo punë e tillë është, e varur nga vota e shumicës, e rëndë si e tillë, kufizuese, të rrëzon, të thyhen, të bën copash aq sa nuk merr dot frymë, por unë e kam pranuar këtë punë e nuk bëj dot pas, e kam të ndaluar të bëj pas. Nuk di në keni parë tjetër që të sulmohet e të qëndrojë, të linçohet e të rrijë përballë, t’i shkojnë atje ku jeton e atje ku punon-po bën punën, dhe të dëgjojë e përgjigjet, me kosto shumë të madhe personale e familjare; keni parë? Ndaj vendosa të rri dhe të bëj punën. E di që kam prishur një plan që politika e ka të sajin, të brendshëm, të poshtër, të përhershëm, por nuk mund të bëj pa të, ndaj për Nesti numëruesin dhe numëruesit e tjerë unë jam 85-a, 84-a ishte aty për planin. E pesta, unë qëndrova për REFORMËN-për të na votuan, jo për hartën; besojeni ose jo, por ajo harta bëhet e keqe pa reformën, jo thjesht si hartë; ndryshon për keq e brutalisht jetën e njerëzve në bashkitë që përthithen dhe bashkitë qendër, pa reformën, jo thjesht si hartë. Unë mendoj që REFORMA E PUSHTETIT dhe e pushtetit vendor është mundësia që është përpara-Qeveria të transferojë masivisht pushtet, kompetenca, funksione, buxhet, tatime e taksa, të ardhura, prona e mundësinë e përdorimit për qëllime ekonomike, mundësi investimi, tek pushteti vendor. Ky është pushteti i njerëzve, është ai ku ata përballen çdo ditë dhe është pushteti më legjitim-i zgjedhur, sesa pushteti që ju është dhënë drejtorëve të emëruar të qeverisë. Është pushteti që duhet të shërbejë me fuqi, kompetenca, funksione, buxhete, politika të mbështetura e financuara prej tyre realisht, ndryshe nga kompetencat formale e deri banale që me të drejtë as i ushtron kush. Të kontrollohet doemos, është detyrë kjo. A është e vështirë të bëhet? Pooo, e vështirë është. Në 4 ditë pyeta shpesh: A ËSHTË GATI QEVERIA TË LËSHOJË E TRANSFEROJË PUSHTET? Nuk mora asnjëherë përgjigje të qartë e që tregon se deri ku do të shkojë qeveria me dy parime kushtetuese të këtij pushteti, decentralizimin dhe autonominë financiare; po e rikujtoj, për këtë e jo njoftimin e hartës apo votës sime, na kanë votuar. A besoj unë tek kjo? Pooo! A besoj unë se do ndodhë kjo? Deri diku po por jo plotësisht. Edi Rama e ka të lehtë të njoftojë rrugën time ose siç thonë disa rreth tij se çfarë më pret mua. Por unë mendoj që e ka të vështirë të lëshojë pushtet. Ai është i dashuruar me pushtetin, fuqinë e autoritetin që ai jep; e ka përdorur për mirë shpesh duke bërë mirë e sjellë ndryshime të mëdha në këtë vend; e ka deleguar po për mirë, siç e ka shpërdoruar në mënyrë të përsëritur në ministra e drejtorë të padenjë; ka bërë gabime-të rënda disa, që duhet t’i pranojë nominalisht si të tijat, jo thjesht si të të gjithë atyre që nuk paskan qenë të denjë përkrah tij, në rrugën e tij. Të marrë e mbajë përgjegjësi. Të japë një shenjë që pushtetin nuk e ka personal, nuk e ushtron si të tijin, por e ndan siç kushtetuta e ka caktuar, me pushtete të tjera të ligjshme e sovrane, të pavarura e që duhet të jenë funksionale, deri në fund, të pacenuara apo përgjysmë si vullnet disiplinues i mazhorancës të zbehur në njoftime, qoftë edhe si hartë. Unë qëndrova për këtë, për punën që jam votuar të bëj, asgjë tjetër!E bëra edhe për disa kolegë të mirë që edhe pse të rinj në atë Kuvend, më vjen mirë që kanë aq shumë nder e dinjitet, njerëzillëk pafund, dije e dinjitet, e me të cilët ndava gjithë të enjten e mëngjesin herët të së premtes; ju jam mirënjohës!Shpresoj shumë të keni durimin të shihni e dëgjoni, lexoni përtej 25 sekondave; ato janë të mjaftueshme për të sharë, por jo për të ditur e kuptuar.Besoj që shpjegova e dhashë llogari për votën time.

Samantha Phythian was alive when van was set alight, court told New

Samantha Phythian was alive when van was set alight, court told

Samantha Natalie Phythian, 35, from Rhyl, died in the fire in Prestatyn on Sunday (Picture: North Wales Police/PA) A ‘much-loved’ pregnant woman whose body was found inside a burning van was alive when the fire was started, a court heard. Samantha Natalie Phythian, 35, from Rhyl, died in the fire in Prestatyn on Sunday. A post-mortem revealed yesterday that she was pregnant at the time of her death, North Wales Police said. Thomas Bell, 35, from Rhyl, had appeared at Mold Crown Court on Friday charged with her murder and was remanded in custody. A 47-year-old man has since been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit arson and possession with intent to supply drugs in connection with Samantha’s death. In a tribute, Samantha’s family described her as a ‘much-loved mum, daughter, sister, auntie and friend’. They added: ‘Samantha, who everyone knows as Sammi, will be remembered for the special place she held in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved her. ‘Her tragic and untimely death has left her family and friends devastated, struggling to come to terms with the loss of someone who meant so much to so many. ‘No family should ever have to endure the pain of losing a loved one in such circumstances. ‘While her life has been cruelly cut short, the memories she created, the love she gave and the lives she touched will never be forgotten. The 35-year-old was killed after the van she was in was set alight, Mold Crown Court heard. (Picture: North Wales Police/PA Wire) ‘She will forever be cherished by those who loved her, and she will be deeply missed. ‘As a family we would like to ask people to be mindful and respectful of rumours circulating over social media platforms at this devastating time.’ Bell did not enter a plea on Friday and was remanded in custody ahead of a further hearing next year. During the brief hearing, the court was told he and Samantha knew each other. Judge Geraint Walters told the hearing: ‘The Crown’s case is effectively whoever did this effectively set the van alight, effectively at the time the ignition took place it can be safely said the victim was alive. ‘Someone set the van alight and the person was alive and was killed as a result of the fire.’ Bell was said to deny setting the vehicle alight. Detective Chief Inspector Zoie Dunkerley said: ‘My thoughts are with Sammi’s family and friends. ‘I would also urge the community to be careful of commenting anything which would add to the family’s distress or interfere with the ongoing active legal proceedings.’ Councillor Gerry Frobisher, of Prestatyn Town Council, said: ‘This type of incident, as far as I am aware, has never occurred in Prestatyn before. ‘It is an isolated incident. I believe that a person has been arrested in connection with the incident. ‘Prestatyn is a safe place to be. My thoughts go out to the family and friends of the deceased.’ Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@metro.co.uk. For more stories like this, check our news page.

Maltempo al Sud: decine di case allagate a Lipari, chiusa la Statale Jonica New

Maltempo al Sud: decine di case allagate a Lipari, chiusa la Statale Jonica

L'ondata di maltempo sul Sud Italia prevista per oggi, sabato 10 ottobre, ha provocato diversi danni in più zone del Meridione. L'allerta arancione era prevista in Campania, Calabria, Puglia e Sicilia, mentre quella gialla era per  Abruzzo, Basilicata, Molise e Umbria. I temporali hanno causato danni a Lipari, dove sono esondati i torrenti Ponte e Valle, mentre sulla spiaggia sono arrivati i detriti. Decine di abitazione sono sotto l'acqua, mentre le auto sono impantanate nel sottobanchinamento del porto di Sottomonastero. Anche le strade del centro sono ricoperte di fango, con detriti arrivati fino al mare. Il bilancio provvisorio del temporale che stanotte ha colpito Lipari, potrebbe peggiorare ancora. Sono stati numerosi gli interventi dei vigili del fuoco tra l'1 e l'1.40 di notte, quando il temporale ha raggiunto la sua massima intensità. Strade allagate e asfalto spezzato a Melito di Porto Salvo Tantissime le operazioni di soccorso anche per gli automobilisti rimasti impantanati. Piogge e temporali anche sulla Calabria, con bombe d'acqua sul Reggino. I danni più importanti sono stati registrati nel Comune di Melito di Porto Salvo, dove nella notte le strade sono state allagate e invase da fango e detriti. Si segnalano anche asfalto spezzato, voragini e auto trascinate per metri dalla furia dell'acqua. Sulla Ss 106 Jonica si è verificata una frana con un cedimento che ha portato fango e detriti sulla corsia d'emergenza. La strada è stata chiusa al traffico in entrambe le direzioni. Sul posto sono presenti il personale Anas e l'impresa di pronto intervento per la gestione dell'emergenza e il ripristino della viabilità. Nel Tarantino, le luminarie installate per i festeggiamenti dei Santi Medici sono cadute nella zona di piazza San Giovanni a Sava a causa delle forte raffiche di vento. Alcune autovetture parcheggiate sono state danneggiate. Non sono stati registrati feriti. Blackout e guasti all'impianto idrico a Siracusa In Sicilia i cittadini hanno dovuto fare i conti con un guasto a una condotta idrica e blackout ripetuti a Siracusa e provincia. Disagi nell'erogazione dell'acqua si registrano a Borgata, Ortigia, corso Gelone e nelle aree limitrofe. Le squadre tecniche sono al lavoro per ripristinare il servizio. I blackout e il nuovo guasto hanno compromesso il ritorno alla normalità, mentre si registrano criticità per gli allagamenti in viale Teracati, all'altezza della tomba di Archimede, dove è saltato un tombino, con rischi per gli automobilisti, e in viale Santa Panagia e viale Scala Greca. Molto elevato il livello dell'acqua nel rione del Villaggio Miano, dove viene segnalata anche la mancanza di un adeguato canale di gronda per convogliare le acque piovane verso il mare. La Protezione civile comunale monitora la situazione, mentre resta in vigore l'allerta arancione per l'intera giornata.

Hugh Hefner’s widow urges Jessica Biel to reconsider Playboy film role New

Hugh Hefner’s widow urges Jessica Biel to reconsider Playboy film role

Published 12:54 9 Oct 2026 GMT+1Harris accused Hefner of 'sexual, emotional, financial, and physical abuse' in her plea to BielCrystal Harris has publicly urged Jessia Biel to drop her role as the fictionalised wife of Hugh Hefner in the upcoming film Playmates.Now 40, Harris was the third wife of the late Playboy publisher, and the pair, who had a 60-year age gap, were married from 2012 until his death in September 2017.She was just 21 years old when they started dating, while Hefner was 81, and since then, she's been open about the struggles she faced and the toxicity of their relationship.On Thursday (8 October), Harris posted a screenshot to Instagram showing a direct message she sent to Biel, 44.AdvertIt read: "Please reconsider playing Hugh Hefner's 'wife' if this film intends to romanticise him or the Playboy world.Hefner was 60 years Harris' senior (Denise Truscello/WireImage)"I was actually his wife, and I experienced sexual, emotional, financial, and physical abuse in that relationship. Many other women have come forward with allegations of rape, coercion, drugging, and exploitation as well."There are also deeply troubling concerns involving minors. I hope everyone involved in this film takes the time to listen to the women who lived it before helping Hollywood turn it back into nostalgia."Harris has previously spoken at length about her experiences in her 2024 memoir Only Say Good Things: Surviving Playboy and Finding Myself, in which she reflected on her time inside the infamous Playboy Mansion and the impact the relationship had on her sense of identity.She also described the pressures and expectations she said came with life in Hefner's world.Earlier this year, she demanded an investigation into Hefner's foundation, which she claimed possessed scrapbooks which potentially featured explicit photographs of underage girls.Harris cited abuse in her emotional plea (Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images)It comes days after Deadline reported Biel's involvement in the movie, alongside Bill Pullman, who is playing Hefner as previously announced, and Indiana Elle and Lily-Rose Depp.The outlet reported that they've been told the fictional character isn't specifically modelled off any of Hefner’s three wives: Millie Williams, Kimberley Conrad and Harris.The film is from actor-turned-director Lorraine Nicholson and centres on life at the Playboy Mansion.Harris's intervention raises questions about how the production will approach the legacy of the Playboy founder, whose public image as a champion of sexual freedom has been challenged by women who have described troubling experiences within his orbit.Harris later added in a follow-up Instagram statement: "There has been an overwhelming response to my last post, and I’m so grateful that so much of it has been supportive.It's reported that Biel's character isn't specifically modelled off any of Hefner's wives (Michael Buckner/Variety via Getty Images)"So many women are speaking up, sharing their experiences, and expressing that they’ve simply had enough."Victim blaming is still far too common, especially when it comes to narcissistic and emotional abuse. I know that not everyone has experienced these dynamics firsthand, and I’m genuinely glad for those who haven’t. But I also hope we can listen to and support the women who have, even when their experiences are difficult to understand."She added: "My goal has always been to support women, amplify their voices, and help create a world where their experiences are taken seriously. That’s where I want to keep putting my energy moving forward."Regarding the film, I hope it’s not something that will glorify Hugh Hefner.Actor Bill Pullman will play Hefner (Eric Charbonneau/Amazon MGM Studios via Getty Images)"With women in the leading roles, my hope is that the film ultimately delivers a message of empowerment: that women can find fulfilment, independence, and a sense of self beyond Playboy."Harris's memoir marked a significant shift from the public image she maintained during her marriage, when she had promised Hefner she would only say good things about their time together.Following his death at 91, she began speaking more openly about what she described as the darker side of the Playboy lifestyle.Tyla has contacted a representative for Jessica Biel for a comment.Featured Image Credit: Denise Truscello/WireImage/Eamonn M.

Christian Wolf besitzt Millionen – bei der UBS war er der «erste Nicht-Milliardär» New

Christian Wolf besitzt Millionen – bei der UBS war er der «erste Nicht-Milliardär»

Christian Wolf polarisiert seit Jahren mit seinen Aussagen auf Social Media. Auch seine Werbung für Nahrungsergänzungsmittel sorgt immer wieder für Diskussionen. Kritik gehört für den 31-Jährigen also längst zum Alltag. Bei seinem Besuch in Zürich für ein Charity-Event für krebskranke Kinder der Moving Kids Foundation erklärt er gegenüber 20 Minuten, warum ihn Gegenwind nicht davon abhält, weiter öffentlich anzuecken . «Ich bin damit immer fein, wenn man für etwas verurteilt wird, an das man glaubt oder für das man einsteht», sagt Wolf. Er versuche, Meinungen nicht einfach zu übernehmen, sondern zunächst zu hinterfragen. Dass das schnell provozieren kann, weiss er selbst. «Das klingt jetzt wie Schwurblerzeug», sagt er lachend. Trotzdem stelle er sich bei vielen emotional diskutierten Themen erst einmal die Frage: «Ist es wirklich so?» Im April stritt er sich öffentlich mit der Neurowissenschaftlerin und Gesundheitsinfluencerin Dr. Sophie Imhof und löste einen Sturm der Entrüstung aus. Sie hatte ihn dafür kritisiert, dass Wolf seiner Freundin Romina Palm eigenmächtig ein Medikament verabreichte, ohne medizinische Expertise zu haben. Darauf bezeichnete Wolf sie als arrogant und fantasierte, wie er ihr ins Gesicht treten würde. Später entschuldigte sich der Fitness-Influencer dafür. Nicht jede Publicity sei gute Publicity Mit dem bekannten Spruch «All publicity is good publicity» kann Wolf allerdings wenig anfangen. «Nein, das glaube ich nicht mehr», sagt er. Die Haltung sei teilweise auch eine «Bewältigungsstrategie von Influencern» – also der Versuch, negative Reaktionen im Nachhinein positiv umzudeuten. «Ich glaube nicht, dass alles, was irgendwie passiert, gut ist.» Er selbst könne mit Kritik umgehen, weil er sie seit Jahren gewohnt sei. Als Beispiel nennt Wolf die Fitnessbranche. Vor rund zehn Jahren seien Aussagen über eine proteinreiche Ernährung noch deutlich kontroverser diskutiert worden. «Damals hiess es noch: Protein macht deine Nieren kaputt», sagt er. Auch er habe viel Gegenwind erhalten, wenn er öffentlich widersprochen habe. «Ich war halt nur der Typ mit dem Halstattoo.» Heute seien Proteinprodukte überall erhältlich und viele frühere Vorbehalte verschwunden. Wolf betont aber auch: «Das heisst nicht, dass es bei jedem Thema so ist.» In Zürich fühlt er sich plötzlich arm Für einen Charity-Anlass reiste Wolf am Freitag nach Zürich. Viel von der Stadt kenne er bislang allerdings nicht. «Ich habe Zürich bisher eigentlich immer nur als Flughafenstadt genutzt.» Sein erster Eindruck fällt trotzdem positiv aus. «Es ist schön hier», sagt er. Aufgefallen seien ihm vor allem die Gebäude rund um das Kongresshaus, wo das Event stattfand – und die Preise. «Wahrscheinlich auch nicht günstig.» Passend dazu hatte Wolf zuvor auf Tiktok von einem früheren Banktermin in Zürich erzählt. Nach dem Teilverkauf seiner Firma sei er bei der UBS gewesen. Dort habe ihm ein Banker gesagt: «Herr Wolf, Sie sind der erste Nicht-Milliardär, den ich seit langer Zeit betreue.» Wolf, der selbst von einem Vermögen im dreistelligen Millionenbereich spricht, kann darüber lachen. «Ich feiere solche Situationen. Ich fand es richtig lustig.» Mittlerweile hat der offizielle Account von UBS Schweiz auf Tiktok Wolfs Video kommentiert: «Grüezi Herr Wolf, Milliardär oder nicht: Schön, sind Sie wieder in Zürich», lautet der Kommentar. Wolf will über Spenden sprechen Auch beim Thema Wohltätigkeit vertritt der Influencer eine klare Haltung. Dass man über Spenden besser schweigen solle, hält er für falsch. «Wenn gesagt wird, man sollte nicht über Spenden reden, frage ich mich: Sollte man das wirklich nicht?» Von Influencerinnen und Influencern erwartet er dabei denselben Einsatz wie bei kommerziellen Kooperationen. «Wer für ein Produkt mehrere Storys und Videos macht, soll einen guten Zweck nicht mit einem einzigen Foto abhaken», so der Fitness-Influencer.
