  1. Papa John’s has an important message for white supremacists: Please, don’t buy our pizza. The alt-right started singing the pie chain’s praises after CEO John Schnatter made a controversial statement last week during a conference call with ESPN. In it, he blamed the NFL’s handling of players’ protests of police brutality and racism for the chain’s recent dip in pizza sales. “The NFL has hurt us,” Schnatter said during a conference call, reports ESPN. “We are disappointed the NFL and its leadership did not resolve this.” Schnatter’s comments drew ire on social media. “Papa John’s financial struggles started well before the NFL protests because its pizza is terrible,”tweeted Judd Legum, editor of news website ThinkProgress. Writers at neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer quickly sided with Papa John’s, declaring it the official pizza of the alt-right, reports Newsweek. Soon afterward, people on Twitter created memes about the pizza chain’s affiliation with Nazis. But Peter Collins, senior director of public relations at Papa John’s, was quick to shoot back with a statement disavowing the chain’s new fans: “We condemn racism in all forms and any and all hate groups that support it,” he wrote in a press release. “We do not want these individuals or groups to buy our pizza.”

  4. About 29 Dairy Queen locations are shuttering, after a franchisee files for bankruptcy. Vasari LLC, which operates about 70 Dairy Queen locations Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Monday. In the filing, the company announced plans to close approximately 29 Dairy Queen locations. "As many of its restaurants are positioned in prime 'oil country,' the Debtor has struggled to survive the far-reaching effects of dramatic declines in oil prices," the filing reads. "While waiting for oil-industry related jobs to return as oil prices begin to rebound, the Debtor also faced industry pressure from competing businesses." The bankruptcy filing further says that many stores were damaged in Hurricane Harvey, and that efforts to keep prices low had slashed profit margins. As a result, the franchisee has already closed nine locations as of Monday and plans to close roughly 20 more. Here's the list of Diary Queens that the franchisee has said are closing: 224 S. Dumas Ave., Dumas, TX 79029 977 East Austin Street, Giddings, TX 78942 1014 South Main Street, Perryton, TX 79070 1243 N. Main, Shamrock, TX 79079 1243 N.

  5. I hope everything he touches doesn't turn to gold! :rolleyes: The two that reach the ground, or the one that almost does?:cool:
  6. Pot smokers in the US can’t get off scot free, since many will now have to take it on the chin and pay a steep marijuana penalty — to sign up with life insurers, that is. Marijuana indulgence, recreational or medicinal, is sharply raising the price of some premiums, with certain issuers making the same risk assumptions for pot smokers as cigarette smokers. The cost of a 20-year, $1 million life insurance policy, for example, can be as much as five times higher for a pot smoker compared with a clean-living nonsmoker, according to one broker. There are no consistent industry mandates, or best practices, as marijuana comes out of the shadows and is legal in eight US states and the District of Columbia. “We don’t get into that side of things, that is something for individual company operations,” Jack Dolan of the American Council of Life Insurance told The Post, referring to insurance companies’ marijuana rules. But one broker has plenty to share about weed. And the numbers are mind-blowing. Mark Maurer, president of LLIS, an independent insurance agency in Tampa, Fla., addressing a recent conference of the National Association of Professional Financial Advisors, recommended practitioners ask clients about pot habits when reviewing their life insurance. Although some issuers will overlook occasional usage, others will boost rates if you smoke dope at all, which puts marijuana users on the same spectrum as cigarette smokers. “Right now, I don’t know of any life insurance companies who will out and out decline an applicant because they smoke marijuana,” Maurer said. Maurer told of a 36-year-old New Jersey woman who informed him she vapes marijuana once or twice a week, and then got sticker shock on her 10-year, $1 million policy quote. One of the issuers offered an annual premium of $3,772 — the same rate as on the 10-year plan for tobacco users. Another issuer asked only $677, the rate for which it would hit up a non-tobacco user. Maurer says the New Jersey client’s transparency paid off because she could stay clear of a costly contract, and avoid trouble later if the insurer discovered her usage through medical or other records.
  7. We had a shirtless Seth scene is season one. Here's hoping for a totally nude one in season 2. (Maybe in the boxed set?)
  8. Yes... as long as you have the $$$, any escort would be thrilled to be with you.

  10. Why are so many pics in this thread posted multiple times? Whole pages are almost identical to others previously posted.
  11. That's from a pretty hot Tom Chase video.
  12. I've seen that video. Impressive.
  13. Nice arms, & when his shirts are snug, there's some pec-definition to be seen.
  14. Look at the size of those balls!
  15. Andy Williams of FLIP OR FLOP FORT WORTH is attractive & nicely built. I'll watch again if only for that reason.
  16. The future Mr. Upton is a world champion. Justin Verlander is expected to miss the parade Friday, as he and Kate Upton are said to be marrying in Italy this weekend.

  18. The BET version of THIS IS US... though Kate looks a little different in this version.
  19. Super-model, who earns almost as much as her $28million/yr fiance. BTW, before Verlander was traded to the Astros, his teammate with Detroit was Justin Upton, so if Kate & Verlander married, there would have been two Justin Uptons on Detroit... and the other one's cuter: http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/images/players/head_shot/457708.jpg http://m.mlb.com/assets/images/6/4/4/174063644/cuts/042316_Justin_Upton_1280_2jr7bjle_xo17qir4.jpg http://www.theinsidewordonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/TIWMLBjune09.jpg Justin, Kate, & Melvin Upton (Justin's older bro, formerly known as BJ) http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/10/02/article-2442174-187979C400000578-927_634x848.jpg WHO HAS THE BEST ASS? http://www.gotceleb.com/wp-content/uploads/celebrities/kate-upton/sports-illustrated-magazine-october-2013/Kate-Upton-Butt-Shot-Making-of-Sports-Illustrated-October-2013--23-560x433.jpg http://www.gotceleb.com/wp-content/uploads/celebrities/kate-upton/sports-illustrated-magazine-october-2013/Kate-Upton-Butt-Shot-Making-of-Sports-Illustrated-October-2013--07.jpg How do you like THEM apples? http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.2973522.1487184468!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_750/swimsuit16s-1-web.jpg
  20. The future Mr. Upton pitched well, but his teammates couldn't quite seal the deal tonight, & so we have a game 7 tomorrow.
  21. Though not a single chest hair among the whole bunch.
  22. I haven't seen one of them in ages. I just checked, & there's one in Manhattan, & the next-closest is Philadelphia. I always wonder, in cases like that, how it can be economically feasible to transport supplies to a lone location so far from the nearest cluster.
