Your choice of underwear may be able to tell others a lot about your personality. Are you a high-waisted lady or do you prefer boy shorts – and what does this mean about you…? Leonisa, which sells women’s lingerie and shapewear, compiled an extensive list of women’s underwear types and what they reveal about the person wearing them. According to the clothing company, if you’re wearing a thong – or its “skimpier cousin the g-string” – you’re a pretty self-assured lady, or take no VPL very seriously. The website reads: “Either you’re super confident and not afraid to show off ... Read more

Jewish advocacy groups have reacted with fury after Volodymyr Zelensky and Justin Trudeau were among those who gave a veteran who fought for a Nazi unit during the Second World War a standing ovation. Yaroslav Hunka fought for the First Ukrainian Division – also known as the Waffen-SS Galicia Division, or the SS 14th Waffen Division – a voluntary unit that was under the command of the Nazis and fought against Russia. Hunka, now 98, was welcomed to Canada’s House of Commons during Zelensky’s visit to Ottawa on Friday. He was invited by House Speaker Anthony Rota – who has ... Read more

Shenandoah University safety Haley Van Voorhis has made U.S. college football history by becoming the first woman to feature in an NCAA game at a position other than kicker. Several women have kicked and scored during the last decade, but the Hornets junior is the first to play defence. Van Voorhis even hurried Juniata Eagles quarterback Calvin German during the first quarter of a blowout 48-7 win. Despite giving up six inches in height and some 30 pounds, the Shenandoah safety wrapped him up and grounded him after forcing an incomplete third-down pass. She has spent the last two seasons ...

Talantbek Chekirov was born in Russia on April 15th 1971. The artist is currently living in the regions of Westfalen and Baden. Talantbek Chekirov’s artworks show various aspects of the beautiful art; his works are extracts of his rich and broadly situated ideas concerning the ideal notion of beauty in painting. Therefore, it is of little surprise that such dissimilar genres as landscapes and stylized nude paintings are represented in his work. From 1986 to 1990 Talantbek Chekirov visited the State College of Art. It was in this period, Chekirov acquired detailed knowledge in the fields of plastic anatomy, graphics ... Read more

A dog walker was stunned when he found a World War Two pill box that bears an uncanny resemblance to Sir Rod Stewart. Aynsley Dickinson spotted the disused bunker sprouting frizzy grass mimicking the rocker’s iconic look. The 51-year-old was walking his two dogs along Embleton beach in Northumberland last week when he stumbled across the bizarre building. Aynsley, from Barnsley, said: “We love it up the north east. We often drive for three hours just to take the dogs for a walk. “We were just walking along this particular beach and we saw the bunker. I instantly thought it ... Read more

The fourth instalment of Sylvester Stallone’s “geriaction” series is so bad, I honestly don’t know where to start. But I suppose the title is as good a place as any. Yes, I do know there’s a tradition of substituting numbers for letters, as in the Vin Diesel-led 2003 action sequel 2 Fast 2 Furious. That one sort of made sense but can anyone work out the pun in “Expend4bles”? If we are supposed to hear “expend foibles”, you’d expect Sly’s mercenary Barney to ditch at least two of his eccentricities, like riding that motorbike with the comically oversized rear tyre. ...

A group of academics, commissioned by France and Germany to explore future EU reforms, has proposed a multi-tiered membership system for the European Union. The proposal, which includes an “EU lite” category for countries like the UK, has emerged as the EU considers expanding from 27 to 36 members due to the Ukraine crisis. To prepare for this potential wave of new members, France and Germany have presented a report calling for extensive reforms within the EU institutions, aimed at streamlining the organisation’s operations. These reforms are intended to be in place by 2030, to accommodate new entrants such as ... Read more

Rishi Sunak is reportedly ready to axe Phase 2 of the HS2 rail line – despite opposition from Tory predecessors, business chiefs and the Mayor of London. The potential cost of the high-speed rail scheme – which Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has said is “out of control” – is said to have soared by £8 billion. It is now being widely reported that the PM is planning to announce the decision to kill off the Northern link to Manchester before the Tories host their conference in the city on October 1. However, former Prime Minister Boris Johnson said scrapping HS2 north ... Read more
