Myanmar coup: China blocks UN condemnation as protest grows

China has blocked a UN Security Council statement condemning the military coup in Myanmar.

The military took power in the South East Asian nation on Monday after arresting political leader AUNG SAN SUU KYI and hundreds of other lawmakers.

The coup leaders have since formed a supreme council which will sit above the cabinet as signs of resistance and civil disobedience continue to grow.

The United Nations Security Council met on Tuesday but failed to agree on a joint statement after China did not support it. China has the power of veto as one of five permanent members of the council.

February 3, 2021 Foods To Avoid To Get Rid Of Belly Fat

Foods To Avoid To Get Rid Of Belly Fat

Belly fat is a major concern for most people and the kind of foods you consume has a lot to do with it.

There are many reasons why people gain belly fat, which includes poor diet, lack of exercise, and stress.

But today's article will focus on the foods that major contribute to belly fat. You might have been working so hard and trying several methods to get rid of your belly fat without checking your meal. This effort is incomplete. Organizing your diet in combination with the right fitness routine will help you lose that belly fat in no time.

1. Dairy products

Certain amounts of dairy products are beneficial to the health but when they start causing bloating after consumption, then you need to avoid them. You might be suffering from lactose intolerance. Swap out cow’s milk for lactose-free or nut milk alternatives and try to limit how much cheese and yogurt you consume.

2. Soft drinks

Soft drinks are a major contributor to belly fat, thanks to their high content of empty calories and processed sugar like fructose. The body struggles to burn fructose and other additives, especially around the waist, meaning high consumption will lead to significant belly fat over time.

3. Potato chips

One of your favorite snacks may be giving you belly fat. Most potato chip brands are cooked in hydrogenated oils. Snacks high in hydrogenated oils and trans-fat are known to increase cholesterol and the risk of heart disease, and also contribute to weight gain around the stomach.

4. Processed baked snacks

If you’re aiming to lose belly fat, then you’ll most definitely want to eliminate processed baked goods from your diet. From those yummy doughnuts to meat pies, dessert cakes, and many others, you need to say your byes if you want to lose your belly fat. Sugar increases inflammation, which is not only bad for you but can also make you look puffy and bloated.

5. Alcohol

Drinking alcohol can lead to dehydration and water retention, and as we discussed earlier, water-weight can leave you feeling bloated and puffy. Beers contain heavy calories but are low in nutritional value, and will not help you to get closer to achieving a flat stomach.

February 3, 2021 Mariah Carey Sued By Sister For ‘Emotional Distress’

Mariah Carey Sued By Sister For ‘Emotional Distress’

Mariah Carey is being faced with a new legal challenge by her sister.

The star's sister Alison has reportedly filed a court summons stating she is seeking $1.25 million  from her superstar sister, according to People magazine.

In the suit, Alison alleges that the "We Belong Together" singer, 50, included multiple stories in her recent memoir "The Meaning of Mariah Carey" that intentionally placed "emotional distress" on Alison.

Furthermore, the suit refers to Carey as "heartless, vicious and vindictive," and states that Alison has begun abusing alcohol and is "uncharacteristically tearful" after the book's release.

In the book, Carey alleges that Alison gave her Valium and tried to "pimp her out" and threw boiling hot tea on her, per People, a story which Alison cites in the summons and claims "presented no evidence to substantiate."

"[Carey] also callously dismisses [Alison] as her 'ex' sister," said the legal doc. "But instead of saying no more about her, [Carey] used her book to humiliate and embarrass plaintiff as stories about the memoir appeared in newspapers around the world, on TV and across the Internet, most of them with headlines repeating defendant's allegations — all of them published without giving [Alison] any opportunity to respond."

The docs also say that Alison has been diagnosed with PTSD, anxiety and depression, and is now utilizing therapy to process "the horrific abuse" she allegedly suffered as a child, which includes incidents she's described as "satanic" in a lawsuit against their mother Patricia

The summons also accuses the star of using her "status as a public figure to attack her penniless sister" in order to promote her book by creating "sensational" headlines.

Additionally, Alison claims she has sent an offer to settle to Carey's attorneys but "no response has been received."

Alison is seeking $1.25 million for the "intentional infliction of immense emotional distress caused by [Carey's] heartless, vicious, vindictive, despicable and totally unnecessary public humiliation of defendant's already profoundly damaged older sister."
