Looking rear-ly good! Carol Vorderman showcases her pert derriere in curve-enhancing elegant cream body-con dress

She famously beat off stiff competition from Pippa Middleton to win the coveted 'Rear of the Year' prize back in 2011. 
And Carol Vorderman ensured she well and truly had her best asset on display as she left the ITV studios in central London on Thursday after filming. 
Showcasing her envy-inducing curves in all their glory, the 52-year-old TV presenter looked incredible as she showed off her pert derriere in a ladylike cream body-con dress.

Clinging to her stunning hourglass figure, the tight-fitting garment proved a flattering choice for the Loose Women panellist, who teamed her sexy frock with a pair of towering nude stiletto heels.


Carol accessorised with a chic tan watch and a small aqua-coloured clutch back as she headed out to her waiting taxi. 
The TV star completed her elegant daytime look by wearing her brunette locks straight, and opting for dramatic smokey eye make-up.

Known for her love of tight-fitting ensembles, Carol recently admitted she likes to try out new looks and 'shock' with her sartorial decisions. 
She said: 'For me being in your 50s is about trying something new. You can't say I'll do it in a few years' time, it doesn't work that way at this age, you do it now!
'For me, age is but a number and you should dress to suit your body shape and sense of style, not your age. And maybe you should try shocking your children every now and then. Life is too short not to after all.' 

Carol famously won the coveted 'Rear of the Year' prize in 2011, and it seems her love for dressing the part shows no signs of waning.
Talking about her love of tight-fitting clothes, the star freely admits she loves to wear things which show off her figure.
She recently told Woman & Home magazine: 'I like tight clothes. Baggy things annoy me. I can't be doing with hanging things. Scarves annoy me too.'

The tall, strapping gentleman kept the star amused, at one point wrapping his arm around the star.
He wore a black sleeveless black top that showed off his bronzed, bulging biceps, army-style cargo trousers and trainers. 
The blonde beauty was just as casual and looking slender in denim cut-off shorts and a simple maroon T-shirt along with tan leather sandals.

She's just as in demand in her career as well.

The star has previously conceded that she has a tendency to fall for her romantic leads on set.
'[It is] one of the easiest things in the world,' Amanda told Elle magazine in 2011. 'You're both open. You're put in a situation where you have to make out with each other. It's easy for things to get carried away.'

Sean Parker's 9,500 word whinge: Napster co-founder defends lavish $4.5 million 'Lord of the Rings' wedding against media backlash AGAIN in an enormous online blast

Billionaire Internet entrepreneur Sean Parker was so upset at the media's coverage of his Californian 'Lord of the Rings' themed wedding earlier this month that he decided to pen an incredible 9,500 word rebuttal to his critics.
Complete with subheadings and quoting directly from 'Rings' author J.R.R. Tolkein, the article, published in TechCrunch, sees Parker, 33, rant about the state of online journalism, environmentalism, his own celebrity and includes a rebuke to himself for helping to build the very Internet culture he feels has turned on him.
Put succinctly, Facebook and Napster co-founder Parker claims that everything about the reporting of his fantasy-themed wedding was wrong, that he did not damage the delicate eco-system around the marital site and even that media coverage before-hand came close to putting the kibosh on the whole 'production'.

Check me out! Cher sports unflattering garish harem style suit for TV show appearance


She is well known for her eccentric and memorable sense of fashion.

And Cher didn't disappoint on Thursday as she stepped out in New York sporting a garish black and white suit with clashing patterns. 
The shiny two-piece featured an unflattering harem design which did little to show off the 67-year-old's slim figure.




The star teamed her ensemble with a chunky silver necklace, matching silver rings and a studded bracelet as she headed out to an appearance on Watch What Happens Live! with Andy Cohen. 
She wore her black hair in a curled loose style and left her hotel in open toe black shoes while an assistant shielded her from the rain with an umbrella.
Cher landed in the city a few hours earlier, declaring herself 'breathless'.





Tevez eager to strike up lethal partnership with Llorente as Juve aim for Champions League glory for the first time since 1996

Carlos Tevez is eager to discover how he fits into Juventus coach Antonio Conte's plans for a renewed assault on the Champions League.
The Argentinian became the Serie A champions' second reinforcement to the forward line, with a deal for Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente having been struck in January.
Tevez, 29, who joins Juve from Manchester City for a reported £10million, has committed himself to three years in Turin and, while helping his new team to a third straight Scudetto is an immediate priority, the Bianconeri harbour serious ambitions of winning the Champions League for the first time since 1996.

Antarctica


Antarctica
Flag of Antarctica
Speculation over the existence of a "southern land" was not confirmed until the early 1820s when British and American commercial operators and British and Russian national expeditions began exploring the Antarctic Peninsula region and other areas south of the Antarctic Circle. Not until 1840 was it established that Antarctica was indeed a continent and not just a group of islands or an area of ocean. Several exploration "firsts" were achieved in the early 20th century, but generally the area saw little human activity. Following World War II, however, there was an upsurge in scientific research on the continent. A number of countries have set up a range of year-round and seasonal stations, camps, and refuges to support scientific research in Antarctica. Seven have made territorial claims, but not all countries recognize these claims. In order to form a legal framework for the activities of nations on the continent, an Antarctic Treaty was negotiated that neither denies nor gives recognition to existing territorial claims; signed in 1959, it entered into force in 1961.

DESCRIPTION:
Antarctica is the coldest, driest, windiest, and most isolated continent on Earth.  The extreme climate limits the presence and activities of humans in Antarctica.  The persistent cold (even during the austral summer), the limited precipitation (which qualifies much of the continent as frozen desert), the frequent overcast skies, the severe winds, and the succession of storms over the ocean and coastal areas help explain why Antarctica is the only continent that has never had a native human population.
Although seven countries (Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom) maintain claims to territory in Antarctica, the United States and most other countries do not recognize those claims.   Governance of the continent is managed through the Antarctic Treaty (signed in Washington, DC in 1959) and its associated instruments, such as the Environmental Protocol to the Antarctic Treaty.  The continent is reserved for peaceful purposes and science and most of those who stay there for limited periods of time there are associated with national Antarctic science programs. The 49 Treaty Parties, one of which is the United States, meet annually at the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting to discuss cooperation.
Antarctica’s popularity as a tourist destination is growing.  More than one-third of all ship-borne tourists visiting Antarctica are U.S. citizens and almost half of all Antarctic tourist expeditions are subject to U.S. regulation because they are organized in or proceed from the United States.  The Department of State is responsible for informing other Treaty Parties of non-governmental expeditions to Antarctica organized in or proceeding from the United States.

Anguilla

Anguilla is a wonderful country with great beaches. Has fantastic beaches and lots of sun. Anguilla location map
Economy
The two mainstays of the Anguillan economy are the tourist sector and the financial services.

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue – wedding bells immediately come to mind, but what about Anguilla? As rabid consumerism devours many Caribbean hot spots, this little limestone bump in the sea has, thus far, maintained its charming menagerie of clapboard shacks (something old) while quietly weaving stunning vacation properties (something new) into the mix. Visitors will discover a melting pot of cultures (something borrowed) set along mind-blowing beaches (something very blue).
One of the most intriguing things about little Anguilla is that it’s hard to decide whether or not the island is grossly underrated or if it actually garners more buzz than it deserves. Supporters cite the refreshing lack of development relative to neighboring islands (no casinos, nightclubs etc), and an earnest local vibe that remains very much intact. But on the other hand, extreme price hikes have turned the island into St-Barthélemy’s stunt double for jetsetters.
Map of Anguilla
While the debate will no doubt rage for years to come, most agree that the island’s best feature (besides the oh-so-blue sea) is its malleability – Anguilla is a blank canvas, allowing visitors to design any vacation they please. Those seeking opulence and privacy can rent one of the many rambling villas, while those looking to dive headfirst into the gritty island culture will be sated with cold beer, reggae beats and nightly gatherings around smoky BBQs. And what’s more satisfying than discovering a hidden local haunt which serves fresh lobster and big smiles for half the price of those big-name joints down the street?
