So you find out your fella has a wife. Then you conspire against your fella with said wife, only to discover he has a second mistress as well. Oh, and that mistress happens to be Kate Upton. That’s the tragic predicament that’s befallen Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann in “The Other Woman.” They play the original mistress and wife, respectively, of the philanderer in question (“Game of Thrones” star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau). BUT WAIT. They spot another mistress as well, and now all three of them are joining forces to sabotage their fella’s life.

It’s the ultimate Broken-Hearts Club, replete with heavy drinking, champagne-brunch toasts to taking fidelity by the horns and strolls through Central Park to plot revenge. Along the way, Nicki Minaj makes her live-action film debut as Diaz’s advice-lending assistant.

“The Other Woman” is directed by Nick Cassavetes (“The Notebook,” “My Sister’s Keeper”). Vengeance will be theirs on April 25, 2014.

The Field Museum is planning a major exhibition with the government of Greece and 17 museums from that country to showcase some of the world’s oldest antiquities, including a replica of the golden mask of Agamemnon and a bust of Alexander the Great.

“It will be a blockbuster. It will have materials that have never left Greece before. It’s a real coup,” Field Museum President and CEO Richard Lariviere said during a presentation today about the museum’s strategic plan before members of the City Club of Chicago.

The 2015 showcase of Greek antiquities (being done with the National Hellenic Museum) and other upcoming exhibits are part of a larger effort to attract visitors, especially Chicagoans, Mr. Lariviere said. Of the 1.3 million visitors to the museum last year, he said 1 million came from out of state.

Mr. Lariviere, who was hired for the top job at the Field in 2012, spent much of last year dealing with the effects of the recession and a goal to cut $5 million in costs from the museum, or about 8 percent of its $65 million operating budget. The museum also has taken heat for borrowing irresponsibility and for selling Western artifacts in 2004 as a result of financial stress. Mr. Lariviere glossed over the museum’s finances today, except to say it was financially healthy and that its bond rating had been boosted.

After the event, he said it was on track to eliminate $5 million from its operating budget, which was reported last year.

In a Q&A period of the discussion, Mr. Lariviere was asked, “Did you do the right thing when you sold the Indian paintings?” The reference was to those works sold in 2004.

“I wasn’t there,” Mr. Lariviere said.

He spent much of his time today talking about the behind-the-scenes work in research that goes on at the museum, which is ranked among the world’s top scientific institutions, next to the Smithsonian in Washington, the American Museum in New York and the London Museum of Natural history.

“The real value, the lasting impact (of the museum) lies in its collections and its efforts to translate science into action,” he said.

He pointed to the Field’s vast collection of peregrine falcon eggs determining that DDT was the cause of the bird’s near demise, which ultimately prompted the federal government to ban the use of DDT. “It was the salvation of the bald eagle and the falcon and who knows how many other birds that were saved as a result,” he said.

And when a panda was born recently at the Smithsonian Zoo, its DNA was compared to the DNA of pandas, snow leopards and other endangered species that were shot by explorer Kermit Roosevelt, son of President Theodore Roosevelt, and stored at the Field.

The costs of such research and the storage of those species are great and require the museum to rethink how it does business.

To address that, the Field is going to open up behind-the-scenes tours for the public into its treasures. Of the museum’s 1.3 million square feet, only 300,000 is open to the public now.

Mr. Lariviere says the Field will open new labs that will allow the public to see scientists in action, similar to ones now open that show DNA sequencing and fossil extraction.

Other additions to the museum include bringing out rare objects in the museum’s collection and a soundscape exhibit that will take visitors on an audio tour back in time. The museum also will continue showcasing exhibits like the recent display of a meteorite that was found in Russia.

Birmingham City midfielder Darren Ambrose is set to leave Blues for Greek Super League side Apollon Smyrni.

The 29-year-old has made just 10 appearances since signing for Blues from Crystal Palace on a two-year contract in the summer of 2012.

Subject to passing a medical on Monday afternoon, he will move to Athens on loan until the end of the season.

“For whatever reason, it hasn’t worked out here. That can happen in a player’s career,” said Blues boss Lee Clark.

“I’ve no doubt there’s a talented player there.

“It’s a fresh start for his family and the weather will be a bit warmer there.”

Ambrose’s move, which takes him to the end of his Blues contract, may yet be offset by additions to Clark’s injury-weakened squad.

The Blues boss is down to using the experienced duo of midfielder Hayden Mullins and defender Paul Robinson in unfamiliar positions, and is hopeful that he will be allowed centre-back Dan Burn back on loan from Fulham later this week.

But he knows that he will have limited funds in the January transfer window.

“I’ve got a budget that’s been set out for me as to what I can do in the January window and Darren’s departure doesn’t really add to it,” he told BBC WM.

“I’m just trying to juggle where we most need to strengthen.

“We’ve only got two fit strikers in Nikola Zigic and Lee Novak and I’ve only got Hayden Mullins and Paul Robinson at centre-half, with Will Packwood as back-up.

“Tom Adeyemi has a back problem and Peter Lovenkrands picked up a groin injury with the last kick of training.

“But I read [Fulham boss] Rene Meulensteen’s comments that Dan will be involved for Fulham in their FA Cup replay with Norwich and that he will probably then go back to Birmingham as his development has come on so quickly.

“Dan has gone back to them and looked a different player. So we’re hoping that he’ll be ready for us against Yeovil this weekend.”

Clark has also not given up on bringing Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard back to St Andrew’s, despite him earning a first-team call-up for his parent club on Saturday evening against Swansea.

“He was in the 18 on Saturday and that makes it a bit more difficult,” said Clark. “But we’re still pursuing it. We haven’t given up on hoping that he might come back to us.”

Greece’s once-dominant Pan-Hellenic Socialist Movement, or Pasok, will participate in May’s European Parliament elections as part of a new center-left alliance and not independently, after popular support for the party collapsed during the country’s painful economic bailout.

Pasok officials said Monday that its candidates would seek election in the May 22-25 polls under a newly formed Progressive Democrats’ Party, created by center-left politicians and academics. A similar alliance is also planned for local government elections, also planned for May.

The Socialists dominated Greek politics for decades, but their popularity has been hammered as voters blamed the party for the country’s severe financial crisis and grew angry at austerity measures imposed under the country’s bailout.

Support for Pasok fell below 5 percent in a December tracking poll, tumbling from nearly 44 percent in a landslide general election victory in 2009.

“We would like to see our cooperation extended to national elections … Our party salutes the decision to create a broader alliance,” Dimitris Karidis, a Pasok spokesman, told the AP.

Pasok is currently the junior coalition partner in government with its traditional rivals, the center-right New Democracy, as the two parties face a growing challenge from anti-bailout political groups.

The Pan-Hellenic Socialist Movement was founded 40 years ago by charismatic late prime minister Andreas Papandreou, months after the collapse of a military dictatorship, and swept to power in 1981. The party presided over extended periods of economic growth, spending 24 years in one-party governments and coalitions, but has been criticized for patronage in the public sector and cronyism.

The party currently dominates local government as well as the country’s representation in the European Parliament.

Analyst George Tzogopoulos said Pasok’s decision could limit the extent of its expected punishing defeat in the upcoming elections.

“The more the center-left is united, the better for them,” said Tzogopoulos, a senior researcher at the Hellenic Foundation for European and Foreign Policy.

“Although the main challenge for them remains their alienation from voters, wider cooperation could soften the expected blow at the ballot box.”

Spent bullet casings were found outside the ambassador’s residence
Shots were fired at the German ambassador’s residence in Athens early on Monday, without causing injury.

Bullets were found embedded in the steel gate, Greece’s Kathimerini news website reports.

Ambassador Wolfgang Dold’s residence is in the Greek capital’s Halandri district. The raid took place at around 03:30 local time (01:30 GMT).

It is not clear who the attackers were. Germany’s insistence on budget cuts has caused much resentment in Greece.

At least 60 spent bullet casings were found at the scene of the attack.

Νέα κόντρα! Έξαλλος ο Αρναούτογλου με τον Λιάγκα!
Αυτή είναι η πρώτη καλεσμένη της Ελένης Μενεγάκη για το 2014!
Δε θα πιστεύετε ποιος έφαγε δέκα κουραμπιέδες και η… «πρόστυχη» ερώτηση του Γιώργου Λιάγκα!
Το Γενικό Επιτελείο μη μπορώντας να ομολογήσει ότι τα τα μαχητικά τους προχώρησαν σε Υπερπτήση της νήσου Ανθρωποφάγοι όταν καταδιωκόμενα από τα Ελληνικά Μιράζ 2000-5 δεν συνέχισαν την πορεία τους κατά μήκος εντός του FIR αλλά τρομοκρατημένοι απο το “LOCK” των Ελληνικών Μαχητικών βγαίνοντας από το FIR πέταξαν πάνω από το νησί στα 2.600 πόδια!…
Καθ” όλη την διάρκεια της πτήσεως των εντός του FIR Αθηνών τα Ελληνικά Μιράζ είχαν πάρει την ουρά των F-4 ενώ το άλλο ζεύγος των F-16 προσπαθούσε να αποσπαστεί από το κυνηγητό των Ελληνικών Μαχητικών!

Οι νεαροί Τούρκοι χειριστές των F-4 ανέφεραν στη βάση τους ότι αναγκάστηκαν να διακόψουν την πτήση τους γιατί κλειδώθηκαν απο τις Α/Α συστοιχίες Patriot όταν χτύπησε (alert στο πιλοτήριο)

Δεν είναι δυνατόν οι ελληνικές συστοιχίες των Patriot από την απόσταση που είναι να εγκλωβίσουν τους στόχους έστω και για ελάχιστα λεπτά ,αν και τo Ραντάρ AN/MPQ-65 Radar Set Ραντάρ έρευνας , εγκλωβισμού στόχων και καθοδήγησης βλήματος η μέγιστη Εμβέλεια του ειναι τα 170χλμ..μπορούνε να “δούνε τον στόχο “, αλλά δεν είναι δυνατόν το radar εγκλωβισμού να εγκλωβίσει τους στόχους από τέτοια απόσταση !

Τελικά το Γενικό επιτελείο της Τουρκίας υιοθέτησε τον ισχυρισμό των Χειριστών των F-4 αδυνατώντας να δικαιολογήσει τα αδικαιολόγητα…και δεν είναι η πρώτη φορά !

Ancient Messene is one of the most important archaeological territories in Greece. The city was established by Epaminondas, a Theban general, along with his allies, the Argives on 369 B.C. The city flourished during the Hellenistic and Roman period as the capital of the Messene’s State.

The most important monuments of the archaeological site will be: the Asklepieion, the Temple of Poseidon, the Sanctuary of Demeter and the Dioskouroi, the stadium and gymnasium of Heroon, where sons of noble families were trained, as well as the Theatre of Messene, which was an exceptional building anticipating the theatres and amphitheatres of the Roman period. According to some testimonies, the theatre was not only used for performances but also as a place for political meetings.
