Preacher: "A Bunny in a Bear Trap" Talked About Scene Ep.101
Arms got broken, hearts cut out, ears bitten off and intestines spilled. Entire cows got eaten, sports mascots were beaten up and helicopters shot down with backyard bazookas. Safe to say this wasnt your average parish.
It wasnt all ultra-violence. Cooper had quiet moments with church organist Emily (Lucy Griffiths, another Brit) and a local lad called Arseface (Ian Colletti), whose botched suicide by shotgun had left him with a face like well, you can imagine. Rather than played for laughs, though, this was surprisingly sweetly handled - reminiscent of The Elephant Man and rather poignant.
Elsewhere, though, the adolescent roots of the comic books showed through. It was distinctly iffy when a battered wife insisted she enjoyed being abused. In an upcoming episode, women from the local brothel run around in lingerie while sadistic cattle ranchers shoot at them.
Celine Dion Interview | Her Final Moments With Husband René Angélil
We dare you not to cry while watching this.
On Sunday, Celine Dion SLAYED alongside Lindsey Stirling as they performed their cover of Queen"s The Show Must Go On at the Billboard Music Awards.
The Canadian crooner showed off her powerful pipes while belting out the epic anthem in Las Vegas.
But after slaying that single, we got seriously choked up when the 48-year-old received the ICON Award from her son Ren-Charles Anglil.
The gorgeous gal began to cry onstage, asking her 15-year-old to stand beside her as she accepted the honor, and apologized for shedding a few tears.
But considering the lovely lady lost both her husband and her brother in the same week, we don"t blame her for getting emotional!
In fact, the soulful singer used her acceptance speech to give a short, touching tribute to her late love.
Watch her sentimental statement and powerful performance (above)!
And check out the ongoing winners list HERE!

PARIS For much of the first half of 2016, Nick Kyrgios avoided the kind of on-court outbursts and controversies that were part of his breakout campaign last year. In contrast with his past behavior, he has not accosted any fans or made audible, inappropriate remarks about an opponents girlfriend.
There are moments when Kyrgios can be downright charming, even during his first-round match Sunday, when he repeatedly complimented his opponent and helped him find a lost piece of equipment.
But then there is his more volatile side, which resurfaced in a profane confrontation with the chair umpire in the same match and lit a spark on a rainy opening day at the French Open.
Later, rain suspended about half of the remaining matches, leaving Kyrgioss outburst as the most prominent event of an otherwise disappointing afternoon at Roland Garros.
I thought it was really tough, Kyrgios said, referring to the conditions. He used the same general terminology to describe the code violation that was assessed against him.
During his three-set match with Marco Cecchinato of Italy, which Kyrgios won, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (6), 6-4, he barked, Towel! at a ball person, who was not as prompt with it as Kyrgios would have liked.
Carlos Ramos, the chair umpire on Court 1, immediately issued a code violation, which prompted Kyrgios to claim at the time that he was the victim of unbelievable bias.

But at least Kyrgios, an Australian who is seeded 17th, was able to complete his match, unlike Kei Nishikori, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Heather Watson, whose matches were suspended. The American Jack Sock, seeded No. 23, had just lost a fourth-set tiebreaker to Robin Haase when play was called just after 6 p.m. They were scheduled to play the fifth set Monday.
Those who finished included Petra Kvitova, the No. 10 seed and one of several contenders in a muddled womens field hoping to upset Serena Williams. She beat Danka Kovinic, 6-2, 4-6, 7-5, on Court Philippe Chatrier.
The 11th-seeded Lucie Safarova, who lost to Williams in last years final and is regaining her form after several injuries and illnesses, defeated Vitalia Diatchenko, 6-0, 6-2, in 56 minutes.
Most of the worlds elite players, including Williams, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal and last years mens champion, Stan Wawrinka, were not scheduled to play Sunday.
Before the rain, the local favorite Benot Paire of France, the No. 19 seed, beat Radu Albot, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4, 1-6, 6-4. Igor Sijsling of the Netherlands was also able to defeat Adrian Ungur of Romania, 6-1, 6-2, 7-6 (5), and will play Kyrgios in the second round.
In his postmatch interview, Kyrgios, 21, was asked one question about Sijsling. Most of the rest were about his dispute with Ramos in the first-set tiebreaker.
The incident came after Kyrgios had lost a point. He later claimed that with the crowd noise, the ball person had not heard him the first time, so Kyrgios had to yell louder. Ramos may have been quick to unholster the code violation, but he demonstrated patience after that as Kyrgios strung together a couplet of obscenities in protest.
How can you sit there and give me a code for that, but when Djokovic pushes an umpire out of the way, thats all right? Kyrgios asked Ramos. Tell the whole world thats all right.
Kyrgios was referring to an incident at the recent Rome Masters in which Djokovic pushed aside the umpires hand while they were examining where a ball landed on the red-clay surface. Djokovic was not penalized, and Kyrgios suggested that he suffered from a double standard.
I mean, I think we all know in this room if that was me that did that, it would be an absolute circus, Kyrgios said during a postmatch news conference. But if he did it, you know, nothing really happened of it. It speaks for itself.
Kyrgioss past behavior does invoke close scrutiny from commentators, fans and tennis officials. He has yelled at umpires and spectators and has made comments that have angered sports officials in Australia and beyond. The incident that created the most turmoil happened last August in Montreal. During a changeover, Kyrgios informed Wawrinka that his girlfriend had been romantically involved with another player, igniting the ire of Wawrinka and other players on the tour.
Earlier this month, Kitty Chiller, the former pentathlete and the chef de mission for the Australian Olympic team, said that Kyrgios and his fellow Australian Bernard Tomic had to improve their behavior or risk being left off Australias team at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
Kyrgios adopted a more conciliatory tone after the match than he had demonstrated on court.
Its not an easy job out there, he said of the umpires. Especially five-set matches, to concentrate, I think they do a good job. All in all, they do a good job.
Kyrgios was also gracious toward his opponent. Even during some of the more contentious points of the match, he repeatedly lauded Cecchinato for making a nice drop shot or an impossibly good serve.
He even helped Cecchinato by finding his racket dampener after it had fallen off.
While Cecchinato looked frantically to and fro, Kyrgios spotted the tiny object on the side of his court, picked it up and tossed it over the net to his grateful opponent. Perhaps that is why Cecchinato deflected a question about Kyrgioss confrontation with the umpire.
I dont know what he said, Cecchinato said. I dont care. He plays very good. He has a big serve, and I like him.
Correction: May 22, 2016
An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated the score of Benoit Paires victory over Radu Albot. The score of the fifth set was 6-4, not 6-5.
Russell Westbrook vs Stephen Curry PG Duel in 2016 WCF G1 - Steph With 26 , Russ With 27, 12 Ast!
Wanna dress like Russell Westbrook? Be prepared to pay as much as $1,600 for a jean jacket.
Russell Westbrook continues to be one of the most electrifying players in the NBA, both on and off the court. Before every Thunder game, Twitter waits for the first photo of Russ" latest outfit to emerge.He is consistently surprising us with shirts, pants and shoes that most of us have never seen before.
So I decided to figure out where the heck Russ is doing all of this shopping
Game 1 vs.Dallas Mavericks
Russ dresses like a fisherman.
Since these pants are out of stock (like most outfits you"ll see that Russ wears), the price is debatable. But they should cost around $400. The official name of these pants are fisherman pants, FYI. I wasn"t making that up earlier.
Game 2 vs. Dallas Mavericks
Russ goes all white everything.
He"s wearing Zara biker jeans for only $80! Achievable! But those really nice brown boots run for $530 from Common Projects.
Game 4 vs. Dallas Mavericks
Russ wears sweatpants.
The cutoff shirt is actually made by Fear of G*d, so it"s a really high quality, expensive cutoff. It"s out of stock, but you may be able to recreate this with some items from Target with some work.
His shoes wereChristian Louboutin Gray Louis Men"s Flat Sneakers. They"re $895. Also, they"re extremely hard to find because Russell Westbrook"s clothes are from some alternative matrix.
Game 5 vs. Dallas Mavericks
Russ wears a poncho.
You can buy this poncho for a reasonable $50 from Honorable Mention. Oh wait sorry, it"s out of stock.
Game 2 vs. San Antonio Spurs
Russ goes vintage.
That"s just an old school Ramones shirt and some Saint Laurent jeans. So what does it cost for paint-splattered jeans anyway? Only $750.
Game 5 vs. San Antonio Spurs
Russ wears a "90s jean jacket.
Wait ... that jean jacket costs $1,595!!! It"s from one of Russ" favorite brands, Fear of G*d. Great clothes, really pricey. Lucky for you, this jacket has already been purchased by a bunch of people willing to pay $1,595 for a jacket.
Game 6 vs. San Antonio Spurs
Russ reminds me of Zorro.
But you see those zebra shoes? If you have trouble finding them online, it"s because their Russ" own shoes from Del Toro. Hisentire line from Del Toro runs at $395 a pair. Because that"s Russ.
Game 1 vs. Golden State Warriors
Russ wears a completely oversized long-sleeve shirt.
Turns out it"s quite popular, as Tyga and Kylie Jenner have been seen wearing it lately. You can get it for a cool $775 from Vetements. (Out of stock, duh.) The model in this picture makes me LOL every time. Those sleeves.
Game 2 vs. Golden State Warriors
Russ ... Russ ... you have holes all over your shirt.
This shirt is impossible to find. I checked all my sources and there is no info on this shirt. I"m starting to actually think that Russ found an old t-shirt in his closet and ripped holes in it. I"m sure the original t-shirt still cost $250, but I have no proof Russ didn"t shred this shirt himself.
So ... after much searching and scouring the web for Russ" outfits, it appears he lives in another world of clothing than any of us could ever imagine. I hope he forever continues to surprise and entertain us with his fashion. And as they say: Let Westbrook be Westbrook.

To say that Keshas performance at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night had some advance publicity is a major understatement.
The singer,who for months has been embroiled in a legal battle with former mentor Dr. Lukein which she claims that he raped and psychologically abused her,was originally slated to perform a cover of Bob Dylans 1964 song It Aint Me, Babe during the show. But thenLuke --whose contract with the singer gives him veto power over certain performances --barred her from appearing for fear that she would use it as an opportunity to speak out against him. Then, after receiving assurances that she would not do that, he relented and allowed her to perform.
See the 2016 Billboard Music Awards Photos
"Keshas performance on the Billboard Music Awards was always approved, in good faith. Approval was only suspended when Kemosabe learned Kesha was to use the performance as a platform to discuss the litigation, a statement from Dr. Luke"s record labelreleased on Thursday reads. Now that Kemosabe has obtained assurances, that it is relying upon, from Kesha, her representatives and d**k Clark Productions that neither Kesha nor her supporters will use the performance as such a platform, the approval has been restored."
Owing to her standoff with Luke, the singer has become a sort of poster child for artists bound by contracts that give the label an unusual degree of control.
That complicated situation formed the backdrop for Sunday night"s performance, but Kesha, clad in what appeared to be aNudie suit, played it straight. Accompanied by Ben Folds and a violist, she delivering the song in a slow and stately manner, carefully enunciating the song"s kiss-off lyrics, showing off her vocal chops without overdoing it. The slow tempo allowed her to play gently and unostentatiously with the song"s melody and phrasing, putting a lift here, a pause there.She smiled gently at the end, raising her hands together in thanks for the standing ovation that followed.
No statements, no histrionics -- she let the music do the talking.
Sergio Garcia Great Golf Shots 2015 Players Championship
May 17, 2016 at 1:12 pm | Print View
CEDAR RAPIDS Sergio Garcia is a fine golfer, but was no match for Sean McCarty Monday.
The longtime head pro at Coralvilles Brown Deer Golf Club outscored Garcia and 73 other players in the U.S. Open local qualifier at the Cedar Rapids Country Club, and joined three other players in advancing to June 6 sectional qualifying that will determine spots for the June 16-10 Open in Oakmont, Pa.
OK, it wasnt THAT Sergio Garcia, not the winner of 28 professional tourneys globally. Instead, it was a junior on the St. Ambrose University mens golf team, who carded a 79 on the course that played at par-72 Monday.
A 79 wasnt too bad this day, with the course playing fast and firm and the greens slick, to say the least. McCarty got the fourth and final qualifying spot with a 75. He finished the round with a couple of unsatisfying pars and didnt believe it when he was told he might want to hang around the course a while to see if he finished in the top four.
I thought I had no prayer, McCarty said. Then I watched the scores come in, and wow.
This isnt McCartys first push at a U.S. Open berth. He said its got to be six times he has advanced out of a local qualifier to a sectional. In 2003, he made the Open field.
It seems like yesterday, McCarty said. That journey began with a local qualifier at the CRCC. Hes 43 now, and still has game.
I like to compete, he said.
When told he beat Sergio Garcia, McCarty said Thats hilarious. I beat Mickelson, too.
No, not Phil Mickelson. Matt Mickelson of Lamoni shot 79.
The other players who advanced Monday were Nate McCoy of Ankeny and Charlie Delsman of Hartland, Wis., who had 73s, and Aaron Krueger of Des Moines, who shot a 74.
Like McCarty, Krueger is a former University of Iowa golfer. McCarty was an All-American for the Hawkeyes in 1995. Krueger, the head pro at Des Moines Wakonda Club, graduated in 2003. Hes a young pup, McCarty said.
Ex-Hawkeyes Gene Elliott and Steven Ihm shot 76s.
Im very surprised, Krueger said about qualifying with his score. The golf course played incredibly hard today.
Krueger qualified for the PGA Championship in 2014. This is the first time he has advanced out of an Open local qualifier.
So what about this Sergio Garcia fellow? Like the famous one, he is from Spain. This Sergio left home to play on the mens golf team at Ashford University in Clinton, then transferred to St. Ambrose in Davenport after Ashford dropped its golf program.
He shot a 70 for St. Ambrose at Quad Cities TPC Deere Run in the second round of the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship, and was the tourneys runner-up. h**l play the same course with the Fighting Bees on May 24-27 in the NAIA National Championships.
He said came to Cedar Rapids for the experience of being able to say I played in a U.S. qualifier.
Even though I didnt play that well, I liked the course. It felt like I was playing in a U.S. Open.
Naturally, Garcia is often asked or teased about his name.
The first couple of holes, players always joke about it, he said. Its funny.
When I saw the tee times I said Hey! It sits in the back of your mind for a second, said Tanner Megal, assistant pro at CRCC and one of Garcias playing partners Monday.
Hes a real good player, too.
The amateur Sergio met the pro Sergio in 2010 at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in Akron, Ohio. The older Garcias manager noticed the boy when he saw he was wearing a Spanish flag on his clothing.
After the boy showed the manager an ID with his name on it, a meeting of the Sergio Garcias was arranged. The boy was the recipient of a hat, gloves and golf b***s from his namesake.
Hes a really nice guy, and a pretty good role model to follow, Garcia said.
But what else would you expect Sergio Garcia to say about Sergio Garcia?
