Huffington Post: Steubenville Rape Trial Verdict: Trent Mays, Ma'lik Richmond Found Guilty

Posted: 17 Mar 2013 07:16 AM PDT

A judge announced on Sunday that the defendants in the Steubenville rape trial were found guilty.

Trent Mays and Ma'lik Richmond had been accused of sexually assaulting a female acquaintance while she was severely intoxicated. Video and photo footage from the night of the incident spread across the internet soon after, drawing national attention to the case.

Mays and Richmond, both football players at Steubenville High School, received delinquent verdicts on all three charges. Delinquent is the guilty equivalent for juveniles. They were both convicted of digitally penetrating the West Virginia girl, and Mays was also found guilty of illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material. The boys will serve their sentence at a juvenile detention facility until they turn 21.

Huffington Post: Kate Middleton Gets Heel Stuck In Grate During St Patrick's Day Parade (PHOTOS)

Posted: 17 Mar 2013 07:24 AM PDT

Even royals can't avoid the pesky pitfalls that come with wearing high heels.

Kate Middleton attended the rainy St. Patrick's Day parade at the Aldershot Barracks today, looking absolutely stunning in a green Emilia Wickstead dress coat (the same one she wore last year!), a black hat, the Queen Mother's gold shamrock brooch and Emmy pumps. The only hitch? The duchess nearly fell in her trusty black heels when they got stuck in a grate.

Colonel of the Regiment Prince William, dressed in ceremonial uniform, seemed to giggle while a soldier stood still in salute as Kate was forced to bend down and pull her stiletto out of the drain. Thankfully, it was only a minor malfunction and the Duchess of Cambridge was able to get back to her official duty of presenting sprigs of shamrocks to the 1st Battalion Irish Guards.

Huffington Post: John Boehner, Sen. Bob Corker Diverge On Tax Deal With President Obama

Posted: 17 Mar 2013 07:28 AM PDT

WASHINGTON -- Sharp differences emerged on Sunday between House and Senate Republicans over the prospect for a budget deal with President Barack Obama, with House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) insisting that "the talk about raising revenue is over" even as Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) said that the GOP is open to increasing tax receipts by closing loopholes.

"I think there, by the way, is a chance on a deal," Corker told Fox News' Chris Wallace. "I think the president is saying the right things. We have an opportunity over the next 4 to 5 months."

"I think Republicans, if they saw true entitlement reform, would be glad to look at tax reform that generates additional revenue. And it doesn't mean creeping rates, it means closing loopholes. It also means arranging our tax system so we have economic growth. And I think we have been saying that from day one."
