Pedophile dwarf, 26, who groomed teen girls on Facebook and begged them for sex is spared jail because of his size

A pedophile dwarf who encouraged two teenage girls to carry out sex acts online will not be going to prison because he would have a "very hard time".

Bryan Anthony Bowen, of Welshpool, Powys, contacted the children, aged 13 and 15, on their Facebook pages, where he asked them for sex and to send naked photos.

One of the messages he sent to a 15-year-old girl read: "I will f*** you for your birthday present".

The court that the 15-year-old girl had attempted to block Bowen after he had sent her a message saying "Do you want to f***?". It was after this that he sent the girl the obscene 'birthday present' message. Police found another message on his laptop to a 13-year-old, whom he described as "fit as f***" and inquired whether she had a boyfriend.

When Bowen was arrested, he said that he thought the girls were over 16. He later admitted to the two incitement charges, which occurred between July and October 2015. A further harassment charge was dropped.

Would you date a man fresh out of divorce?

What are some pros and cons to this? I have started dating older men and many are fresh out of divorce or 2 or 5 years out. I have no idea how divorce works. When does the exwife stop getting checks? Is it financially smart for a younger woman to date or marry a divorced man?

Why You Should Never Be Ashamed of Getting a Divorce

When I randomly look through articles I have written on divorce or read through comments on social media posts of these same articles, there's always at least one or two "shamers" trolling the pieces. Usually these shamers quote biblical accounts or talk about how these people must be weak or awful, terrible parents (if divorced with kids) or quitters. How back in the day, "people stayed married." It's funny. These random strangers seem to think they know everything about a complete stranger's divorce and life from one article. The ones who quote religion are acting as a "god" of sorts, passing judgments on people they've never met and never will.

You, the divorced or the person about to get divorced may also get shamers from your community. Family. Friends. Neighbors. Acquaintances. "Another one bites the dust. Another one quits." You can see it on their faces, hear it in their words.

How this $100M da Vinci masterpiece flew under the radar for centuries

It watched as its then-owner, King Charles I, was beheaded in 1649.

It was hanging in Buckingham Palace back when it was still called Buckingham House in 1703.

It survived the Nazis’ 1940 London Blitz, when its keepers abandoned it in their basement.
By 1958, its origins had become so lost in time that it was sold for a paltry $90 to a collector from Louisiana.

The long, strange journey of Leonardo da Vinci’s masterwork “Salvator Mundi” takes its next turn Wednesday at Christie’s, when it goes under the hammer for a hoped-for $100 million.

It is the first Leonardo to emerge in nearly a century, and one of just 16 surviving paintings by the Renaissance Italian polymath.

“Salvator Mundi” — which translates to “Savior of the World” and depicts Jesus Christ holding an Earth-like glass orb — was nearly forgotten forever during its 500-year journey from Italy to the Big Apple.

“We came pretty close to losing it,” Alan Wintermute, a Christie’s vice president and specialist in Old Masters paintings, told The Post.

“It’s so rare that anything this important reappears in the way it has that you can’t help but be excited.”

Battered by time and marred by ham-handed attempts to restore it, the so-called “last da Vinci” was, for centuries, thought to be no more than a pupil’s copy of the original.

Adopted Woman Whose Family Thought She Was Dead Reunites with Siblings 60 Years Later

 
For decades, Sylvia Kewer’s family thought she was dead.

Kewer, who was adopted as a toddler, grew up in Emporia, Virginia, believing she was an only child. All of that changed in August when she learned she has four half-siblings.

“[Kewer] was saying her whole life she didn’t know what she was. She kept saying, ‘What am I?’ ” Kewer’s daughter, Natalie Graves Tucker, tells PEOPLE.

“Here she is thinking she’s alone all these years and doesn’t know her story … She’s always been a loner and here she has four siblings with children and grandchildren!”
On Nov. 11, Kewer met her half-siblings (and dozens of other family members) at a sweet reunion in Abingdon. Tucker rented a home for the family where they had a cookout and shared old photographs.

"I know someone in Germany who took in a young Syrian and after four days said, 'The greatest thing Germany invented was the Holocaust.'"
