WWE SmackDown Suffers Massive Ratings Drop - Back Under 2 Million Viewers How do you lose 250,000 people in a week? Ask Vince McMahon! WWE.com Oh dear. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Despite having a solid show from a creative and in-ring viewpoint, this week’s WWE SmackDown Live suffered a massive drop in ratings. With the official numbers now in – via  ShowBuzzDaily  – last night’s SmackDown averaged 1.91 million viewers. To give some perspective on that figure, that’s a drop of 250,000 people from last week’s outing for WWE’s blue brand. Yes, SmackDown Live lost a quarter of a million viewers in the space of a week. While that figure in itself is a scary one for WWE brass, even worse is the jaw-dropping fact that this week’s SmackDown Live is down 490,000 viewers from this time last year. The latest edition of SmackDown Live reportedly underwent a complete rewrite – at Vince McMahon’s order – just hours before the show was due to start, although the ep...

Hal Prince Dead: Towering Broadway Director’s Work Included ‘Phantom of the Opera,’ ‘Cabaret’ Harold Prince, center, attends a rehearsal of “The Flight of the Lawnchair Man,” a one-act musical he directed in 2015. NEW YORK — Harold Prince, a Broadway director and producer who pushed the boundaries of musical theater with such groundbreaking shows as “The Phantom of the Opera,” “Cabaret,” “Company” and “Sweeney Todd” and won a staggering 21 Tony Awards, has died. Prince was 91. Prince’s publicist, Rick Miramontez, said Prince died Wednesday after a brief illness in Reykjavik, Iceland. Prince was known for his fluid, cinematic director’s touch and was unpredictable and uncompromising in his choice of stage material. He often picked challenging, offbeat subjects to musicalize, such as the murderous, knife-wielding barber who baked his victims in pies in “Sweeney Todd” or the 19th century opening of Japan to the West in “Pacific Overtures.” By skunty empire

Ben Carson Got Kicked Out Off a Baltimore Church's Grounds While He Trying to Defend Trump CBS Baltimore On a trip to Baltimore apparently designed to clean up the mess President Donald Trump has made smearing the city, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson found on Wednesday that he wasn’t all that welcome. He was trying to give a press conference to discuss his department’s efforts in the city. But the area his staff had picked out for the event turned out to be owned by a nearby church, and it was not happy with his use of its land. “It’s a church — they say, ‘Get off of our property!’” Carson told reporters. “I mean, a church! When we’re talking about helping people. This is just the level to which we have sunk.” His disingenuous outrage about getting kicked off the church’s land is galling. Just this weekend, Trump attacked the city as a “rat and rodent-infested mess.” When he was criticized, the president people in the city thanked him for point...

Distant Alien Planet With Three Red Suns Discovered Imagine living in a world of triple sunsets. Scientists have used  NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite to find an exoplanet with three  red suns . The exoplanet LTT 1445Ab orbits one of the three suns, all of which are described as mid-to-late-life red dwarfs. “The planet transits the primary star in the system,” researchers explain, in a paper which is available on the scientific repository  arXiv . FIRST-EVER BLACK HOLE PICTURE PROVES THE POWER OF SCIENCE, SAYS FORMER NASA ASTRONAUT The planet is described as having a radius that is 1.38 R_Earth, which means that it is a little over a third larger than our planet.

A red dwarf, or “M dwarf” in astronomical terms, is “the smallest, most abundant and longest-live...

This New, Affordable Automatic Watch Has a Unique Feature Scotland seems be having a horological moment, having produced one of our favorite young watch companies,  anOrdain , and now, Akura, a new brand headquartered in Dundee. Akura’s first design, the Wayfarer, is currently live on Kickstarter — available in four dial colors (with two more potential colors that will be unlocked in the event that stretch goals are reached), it features a 41mm steel case,  Miyota 9015 automatic movement with custom rotor, a custom bracelet, 22mm lugs, and, most interestingly, a second crown that controls an inner rotating compass bezel. Compass bezels are relatively rare, and  can be used for navigation. Finding one on an affordable (~$488) automatic tool watch is a welcome discovery, and provides a nice break from the standard count-up bezel found on most dive watches (though the Wayfarer isn’t a “dive” watch per se, it does feature 100m of water resistance, making it perfectl...

Swae Lee Sleeps With His Jewelry On CreditCreditAkram Shah for The New York Times Swae Lee , half of the hip-hop duo  Rae Sremmurd , has been stepping out on his own. After teaming with such disparate artists as French Montana (“ Unforgettable ”), Post Malone (“ Sunflower ”) and Madonna (“ Crave ”), he is set to release his second solo album. He has also been honing a signature style, beyond his mop-top dreads and elaborate tattoos. Over a late lunch of French toast with maple syrup at the Public hotel in Lower Manhattan, he shared some fashion favorites. My favorite top is a button-down, for sure. It’s got to fit so clean. Sometimes it can be oversize and I love that, too. I like a light material, one that feels silky. I like both plain and patterned, but if it’s a dope pattern, it’ll beat plain any day. I like ones by Dolce & Gabbana and AllSaints. I also have Versace ones. I really just found out about  Asos , and now I’m going crazy on there.  ...
