  Washington:  The jury in the bitter defamation trial between "Pirates of the Caribbean" star Johnny Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard concluded deliberations for the day on Tuesday without reaching a verdict. The seven-person jury will resume their deliberations on Wednesday morning in Fairfax County Circuit Court, near the US capital. The panel met for seven hours on Tuesday and two hours on Friday. Closing arguments in the high-profile case were held on Friday at the end of a six-week trial featuring claims and counterclaims of domestic abuse. The 58-year-old Depp flew to England over the Memorial Day weekend and made surprise appearances concerts by Jeff Beck in Sheffield on Sunday and at Royal Albert Hall in London on Monday. Depp, a guitarist, has his own band, the Hollywood Vampires, with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry of Aerosmith. Depp filed suit against Heard over an op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post in December 2018 in which she described herself as a "publi...

A former TCU football standout who became a first-round NFL Draft pick has died. Jeff Gladney was killed in a car accident early Monday morning, his agent Brian Overstreet confirmed. Gladney was 25. “We are asking prayers for the family and privacy at this most difficult time,” said Overstreet, who was admittedly shocked and devastated. The fatal crash happened around 2:30 a.m. in the westbound services lanes of Woodall Rogers Freeway at Allen Street, the Dallas County Sheriff’s Office told WFAA. The cause of the crash remains under investigation. A female passenger also died in the crash, per a source. Several of Gladney’s former college teammates offered condolences on social media Monday. “Lost my Brother, my best friend, my right hand man… ain’t too much more I can take,” Jalen Reagor wrote on Twitter. “R.I.P Jeff Gladney, brother watch over me please.” TCU athletic director Jeremiah Donati released a statement, saying: “Our TCU Athletics family, and especially our football program...

  A 'meteor storm' of 1,000 shooting stars per hour may light up the skies over North America this week The Tau Herculids meteor shower   may light up the skies over North America on May 30 and 31. Or it may not. There's a chance we might pass through the thickest part of the comet   fragment that is creating the debris, in which case the night skies will be filled with shooting stars. If the shower happens in the right way, it could lead to a spectacular "meteor storm," in which Earth passes through an especially thick forest of space rocks, leading to up to 1,000 shooting stars per hour, according to the Washington post. (opens in .  And as a bonus, the moon will be new and the radiant, or apparent direction of the shower, is in the high-up constellation of Hercules in the northern sky. This means there will be a minimum of natural light pollution to contend with when looking for shooting stars. But the sky show is not a guarantee, NASA cau...

  It is really fast though. Plus it sounds great and has a bunch of carbon fibre bits and snazzy gold wheels, and it serves as a real-world example of what engineers can do with a two-tonne SUV, when armed with decades of experience and a blank cheque. But it isn’t sensible. If you’re wanting an everyday Cayenne , I’d suggest saving a hefty $134,100 from the Turbo GT’s current $336,100 (before options and on-roads) sticker and grabbing a Cayenne GT Coupe  ($202,000). It’s not as fast, but it will be a lot easier to live with, and for a cheeky $56,070 extra, you can option it up so that it has all the nifty tech goodies and looks the same when parked outside the Botanical on a Sunday morning. And while this may signify the end of the review if you’re looking for the ‘smart’ Cayenne purchase, I’d wager most of you aren’t and so we forge on for the good of the community and take a look at the fastest SUV that Porsche has ever devised. As noted, the Turbo GT is priced fr...
