Quotidien Madonna and lover Jesus

Madonna and lover Jesus to swap vows in Kabbalah service

Madonna and her toyboy lover Jesus are planning a “commitment ceremony” in New York.

The queen of pop and Brazilian model Jesus Luz will take part in a service in front of a rabbi at the Kabbalah Centre in Manhattan.

Friends said Madonna, 50, and the 22-year-old model decided they wanted to take a new step in their relationship after her bid to adopt a Malawi orphan failed.

Jesus has already converted from Catholicism to the Kabbalah religion as a mark of his commitment to the singer.

The source said: “Lourdes mocks him by calling him The Babysitter, because he is so young. She likes him, but also likes winding him up.”



Londres, 10 mai (EFE).- A cantora americana Madonna e o modelo brasileiro Jesus Luz, de 22 anos, pretendem fazer uma "cerimônia de compromisso" em Nova York em um centro de Cabala, baseada no judaísmo e da qual a estrela é grande seguidora, afirma hoje o jornal "Sunday Mirror".

Amigos da cantora de 50 anos e do modelo afirmaram que os dois querem dar um novo passo no relacionamento.

Jesus teria deixado o catolicismo para abraçar a corrente espiritual da cantora como sinal de lealdade, acrescenta o jornal, que afirma que o modelo foi visto com Madonna e os dois filhos dela, Lourdes, de 12 anos, e David Banda, de 3 anos, em um centro de Cabala.

Uma fonte próxima à cantora citada pelo jornal afirma que Lourdes gosta de fazer brincadeiras com Jesus, a quem chama de "babysitter", por ser "tão jovem".

Quotidien Snoozing

Snoozing at the Terminal

Sleeping at an airport overnight, once almost a sport for the young and short of cash, has become a lot more common lately, affecting even older and professional travelers. And a big reason is that airlines are no longer as free with complimentary hotel vouchers as they once were.

Frank Giotto, President of Fiber Instrument Sales Inc., demonstrated the Mini Motel at the Syracuse airport. The Mini Motel is a one-person tent designed for travelers who are stranded at an airport and includes, an air mattress, pillow, bed sheet, alarm clock, reading light, toothbrush and toothpaste, ear plugs and eye shades.

Quotidien Collapse

At Least One Killed by Crane Collapse in Manhattan

A crane toppled and collapsed onto a high-rise apartment building on East 91st Street on the Upper East Side on Friday morning, tearing off balconies and raining broken brick and shattered glass onto the street below, in the second Manhattan crane collapse in two months. At least one person, the operator of the crane, who was sitting in the cab as the structure fell, was killed, officials said.

At least two others were injured and taken to local hospitals, according to a fire department spokesman.

The crane, which was apparently being used for a construction project at 354 East 91st Street, snapped apart moments after 8 a.m., sending the top piece onto the white-brick residential building at the southwest corner of 91st Street and First Avenue.

The cab of the crane smashed into the top floor of the building, about 20 stories up, and cascaded down the north facade, knocking off balconies and leaving a swath of pockmarks down to a Duane Reade drug store, which sits on the building’s ground floor. The cab operator died at the scene, the police said.

The accident occurred just two months after a tower crane collapsed on East 51st Street between Second and First Avenues, killing seven people and prompting an extensive review of the safety of the city’s cranes.

Just this week, city officials said they would no longer require inspectors to be on hand at construction sites when a crane is erected or made taller, ending a policy put in place after the Midtown accident. The Buildings Department said on Wednesday that it would switch to a system of spot checks and “safety meetings” where workers would be briefed on proper procedures.

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, speaking Friday morning in a previously scheduled radio interview, said the accident “is just unacceptable and we’ve got to figure out what happened here.”
