Vegas chapel offering free weddings on Super Bowl Sunday to couples named Travis and Taylor

As Super Bowl Sunday quickly approaches, a Las Vegas chapel is planning to cash in on the fervor surrounding superstar couple Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. The Chapel of the Flowers announced Wednesday it will offer free wedding ceremonies to any couples named Travis and Taylor who want to tie the knot on Feb. 11 — the same day Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII. “If your name is Taylor and you’d like to get married to your partner Travis after the big game, this is your chance to score a free Vegas wedding,” the venue’s CEO Donne Kerestic sai......
Sheriff, lawyer, donor: How Sean Kilkenny became one of the most influential Democrats in the Philly suburbs

Sheriff, lawyer, donor: How Sean Kilkenny became one of the most influential Democrats in the Philly suburbs

Sean Kilkenny wasn’t expecting to be involved in Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senate race last year. The Montgomery County sheriff had backed one of John Fetterman’s rivals in the primary and — like many elected Democrats — didn’t have much of a relationship with the state’s larger-than-life lieutenant governor, who fashioned himself an anti-politician. But as Fetterman’s lead in the polls over Republican Mehmet Oz slipped amid an onslaught of ads attacking him as being soft on crime, the Democrat’s aides reached out to Kilkenny with an urgent message: The campaign needed someone with a law enforcement......

Alabama 14-year-old with family ‘hit list’ kills older brother, asks friend to help bury bodies: police

A 14-year-old boy with a family “hit list” has been charged with killing his older brother in Alabama. The alleged shooter’s 17-year-old sibling had been missing since Monday when his body was found Tuesday afternoon outside the family home, according to Montgomery station WFSA. Police said the unidentified alleged gunman confessed to a classmate he was responsible for the murder and was just getting started. “He then asked his friend to help him murder the rest of his family and help him bury their bodies,” Pike County Sheriff Russell Thomas reportedly said. “The friend also stated the 14-yea......
An engagement ring or a home down payment? Why some young couples are proposing with lab diamonds.

An engagement ring or a home down payment? Why some young couples are proposing with lab diamonds.

PHILADELPHIA — Years before Jasmine Ma and her fiancé, Ricky Chen, stepped foot into a jewelry store — before they had even talked seriously about marriage — Ma made one thing clear: She didn’t want a mined-diamond engagement ring. “If he was going to put his money toward this, I’d prefer he get something lab-grown,” she said. Not only would they be able to get a larger stone for less money, but she’d also feel better about the decision ethically, Ma said she told him, due to diamond mining’s history of human rights violations. The 27-year-old got her wish earlier this month when Chen dropped ......

Michigan apple orchard that refused to hold same-sex weddings wins court victory against city

LANSING, Mich. — A Michigan apple orchard that was denied participation in a city farmers market for refusing to hold same-sex wedding ceremonies has won its case against the city of East Lansing in federal court, six years after filing its lawsuit. Federal District Judge Paul Maloney ruled Monday that East Lansing's actions against Country Mill Farms, in Charlotte, constituted a violation of the free exercise clause. "The city's decision to exclude Country Mill Farms from the 2017 East Lansing Farmer's Market constituted a burden on plaintiffs' religious beliefs," Maloney wrote. "Plaintiffs w......

Britney Spears’ Broadway jukebox musical taking final bow amid her 3rd divorce

NEW YORK — Broadway’s Britney Spears jukebox musical will take its final bow early next month, amid the breakdown of the pop star’s third marriage. “Once Upon a One More Time” — which features nearly two dozen of Spears’ greatest hits — will take to the stage one last time on Sept. 3, after opening June 22, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The production, housed at the Marquis Theatre, has had a hard time attracting audiences, despite its apparent similarities in theme and timing to the unparalleled success of the “Barbie” film and its meta-commentary. Much like how Greta Gerwig’s billion-......
