'Twilight' Star Nikki Reed Is Feeling Like A Superwoman A Month After Daughter's Birth
Actress Nikki Reed gave birth to her first child with husband Ian Somerhalder on July 25th, and she's gently easing her body back into shape.
Actress Nikki Reed gave birth to her first child with husband Ian Somerhalder on July 25th, and she's gently easing her body back into shape. Reed posted a picture to her Instagram page which showed her being held aloft by her brother Nathan in an Acro-yoga pose, but she downplayed the image by saying it was just a basic stretch.
As Nikki Reed wrote in the caption:
"Hey brother stay away from my uterus." Totally normal thing to say to your brother postpartum Also cred...our Mom. She still thinks everything we do is super cool. Thanks mom.
Ps This might make me feel like a badass but if you know Acro-yoga, you'll see it's really just a basic stretch. Can't do much yet, but while I wait and recover, I might as well do things that make me feel like superwoman with my big bro :). Thanks for the sweet afternoon Boog, I can't wait to get back into some serious moves with you
She did admit, though, what she is able to do while recovering makes her feel like a superwoman — and Nathan, an energy consultant, swears that she's already in shape for the San Diego Triathlon next month. He reposted the image on his own Instagram page, adding a heaping dose of praise for his younger sister:
More stretches and rejuvenating postures. #Teamwork. This time with my beautiful, loving, caring sister who is now a proud mother of a gorgeous little girl. This easy pose stretches her hips, triceps and even her abdomen, which are of course still in repair mode. Of all the postures, there were a few that really felt amazing for her. This was one of them. Can you believe how amazing she looks? I swear she's already in proper shape to join me for the San Diego Triathalon next month...
This isn't the first time Reed has posted a picture of the yoga that she loves. Back in May, she shared a photo which showed her learning the basics of Acro-yoga with her brother, saying how obsessed she with it as it reminded her of her gymnastics days.
With these workouts, it's no wonder Reed's already looking so great so soon after giving birth to baby Bodhi Soleil!

Stephen Amell Ships Olicity, Too — And Wants A Wedding In 'Arrow' Season 6
Since Oliver Queen and Felicity Smoak first began flirting in Season 2 of the superhero drama Arrow, fans figured it was only a matter of time before the two became a couple. Unfortunately, that union didn't last very long as the pair split in Season 4 after approximately nine months together.

The Pearl by John Steinbeck
‘The Pearl’ is a well-known by under-read classic and, as a teacher, many of my students have absolutely loved it. Not just because it is short, but because it presents a storyline that is interesting and corrupting. Easy to read and easier to analyse, ‘The Pearl’ is one of Steinbeck’s hardest hitting classics with an underlying message about protecting what is actually important. By the end of the book, the reader is left defeated and believing in the wrong thing. The idealism around this book is incredible and it is so dark too. For a long while you are supporting the wrong people, thinking in the wrong way and the whole story becomes one long act of misdirection by Steinbeck to show in a ‘Monkey’s Paw’ fashion why we should never chase wealth and status.

Irish Wish-a review
A lesson about cowardice. Maddie took the easy way out in love and profession. She used Paul to share her thoughts and used the wish to attain a relationship. Paul may have used her for his image but she used him to avoid responsibility. People are often afraid of their potential greatness and Maddie was. During Paul's book reading, she recited the lines along with him but kept minimizing her contribution. She was not brave enough to confess her feelings to Paul in both universes but carried on with the wish. Thankfully, being with James allowed her to realize her self-worth and heightened her bravery.

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
