Daylight Saving Time Ending Is Bad For Deers: A new study by the University of Washington reveals that drivers are 16% more likely to hit a deer in the week after Daylight Saving Time ends.
Researchers say “Almost 10% [of these collisions] occurred during the two-week period centered on the autumn time change, which is 2.5 times greater than expected if collisions were universally distributed. Of course, the time change coincides with the deers’ rutting season when bucks tend to wander in search for mating opportunities, but the time change also shifts more human commutes into the darker hours. The shift to standard time each autumn causes an abrupt increase in nighttime driving during the peak breeding season for deer, resulting in a 16% increase in deer-vehicle collisions.''
OneRepublic star Ryan Tedder tells GQ magazine that he wishes fans wouldn't interrupt him when he's eating. “Don't approach someone when they’re eating. That’s the only thing that irritates me is when I’m sitting with my family, obviously having a conversation in my normal human time, and someone comes up to me. That’s the only time I ever get little like irritated or I see other artists get irritated. So what I do when I’m eating and someone walks up to the table, is I say "as soon as I’m done eating I’ll go take a picture with you."”

We’re Albanian, so we’re super loud but we’re very loving and the energy of having all of the family at the house during the holidays. You can never match that energy. It’s so special. So my favorite holiday memories are of all of my relatives coming together and just having so much fun during the holiday season.”

OK! magazine claims the cast of ''Friends'' is happy that Matthew Perry released his memoir. A source tells the magazine, "They’re all very supportive and proud of him to be coming clean and giving himself closure in so many areas. There was a wariness in the build-up to the release for sure, that he may have spilled a lot more embarrassing secrets than he did. Despite his upbeat attitude, there’s still a sense of underlying nervousness since he’s thrown his heart and soul into this project. Going into so much detail about his darkest days and sharing those secrets he held onto for all these years has been no easy process. But he’s very happy with how it’s all turning out."
Closer Weekly Magazine claims Julia Roberts is allegedly upset with Matthew Perry for outing their fling in his new memoir.

It made her cringe. She knows how badly he struggled and applauds that he’s shown the courage to get help and encourage others to learn from his own cautionary tale. Julia just wishes he hadn’t dragged her into his life story.''
Hollywoodlife.com claims Gigi Hadid allegedly has no plans to introduce her daughter, Khai, to Leonardo DiCaprio. A source tells the website, “It isn’t even on her radar.

Gigi feels like she would have to be very serious with somebody before she’d even consider bringing anybody around her daughter. She’s extremely protective over Khai. Being a mom has completely shifted Gigi’s perspective when it comes to dating. It’s not just about her anymore. She has a child, and that baby comes before anybody else in her eyes. She is in no rush to get serious with the actor and as far as taking it to the next level, it’s going to take a long time before she’s open to that.”

She is in touch with Pete although she's turning down all of his requests to get together. There's been contact and Kim is actually the one who texts him a lot, she's always messaging and sending pictures.

Dear Fonseca
My new boyfriend does not like the way I greet my ex-husband. My ex and I are still great friends despite our split. We co-parent very well. Whenever I see my ex we quickly peck each other on the lips. My new boyfriend hates that I kiss my ex on the lips and says it's wrong and almost like cheating every time I see him. I disagree and think there is nothing wrong with showing affection to a person I spent 14 years with. I think my new boyfriend is insecure. He says any sane person would agree with him and not me. Is it wrong that I kiss my ex on the lips despite being in a new, committed relationship?
