Latest on Waffle House CEO Sex Scandal and 'Breaking Dawn, Part 2. Review


Waffle House CEO Sex Scandal

A former personal assistant of Waffle House CEO Joseph Rogers Jr. is accusing him of forcing her to "perform sexual services," among other degrading acts. Police blacked out the woman's name, but gave a graphic account of her accusation, based on an interview that she gave Atlanta police September 28. Atlanta police would not say if they have verified the woman's claims. Sgt. Gregory Lyon said, "I can tell you that this is an open and ongoing investigation."
His accuser told police that, starting in 2003, she had worked out of Rogers' house as his assistant handling personal and work-related items. Within months of her hiring, the woman said Rogers:" On numerous occasions (tried) to force himself upon (her), attempted to have her perform oral sex on him (and) attempted to have sex with (her)."She refused, but in 2003 and subsequent years, "Rogers required (his assistant) as a condition of her employment to masturbate him," the report said. The police describe other allegations of Rogers' sexually inappropriate acts: making her buy porn, frequently appearing naked and touching her breasts.
The accuser "was forced to endure harassment and demeaning treatment by Rogers because she was a single mother and needed her job to support herself and her son." On June 29, after the accuser's son graduated high school and earned a scholarship to college, she put her resignation letter in Rogers' sock drawer. That was "in an effort to spare Rogers' wife from pain and humiliation," she said.It was not clear why the accuser took so long after she had left her job to contact police, but as of right now, no charges have been filed in the case.

Read 'Breaking Dawn, Part 2. Review


 Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart star in satisfying finale of “Twilight.”

Like its once-hesitant heroine, Stephenie Meyer’s “Twilight” series has grown ever more confident over the last four years. (A span that surely feels like decades to spotlit stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson.)


Actors Kristen Stewart (L) and Robert Pattinson arrive at 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2' Los Angeles premiere at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on November 12, 2012 in Los Angeles, California.
And now, just as Bella Swan (Stewart) embraces her own eternal power, “Breaking Dawn, Part 2” expands with a full intensity of force, stronger and more epic than the films that led to this impactful finale. Make no mistake: those who haven’t yet bought into Meyer’s saga, either in print or on screen, are likely to remain unimpressed. But fans who’ve followed the Cullen clan faithfully deserve a satisfying finish, and that’s what director Bill Condon and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg deliver. At the close of “Breaking Dawn, Part I,” we left Bella and her beloved Edward (Robert Pattinson) upon the arrival of their child, Renesmee. This was no ordinary birth: Bella nearly died, and was rescued when Edward reluctantly turned her into a vampire. Also, there was that (still creepy!) imprinting thing, wherein the lupine Jacob (Taylor Lautner) discovered that Bella’s daughter was meant to be his life mate.

Much to everyone’s surprise, Renesmee (Mackenzie Foy) turns out to be half human and half-vampire. Near the start of “Part 2,” corrupt Volturi leaders Aro (Michael Sheen) and Jane (Dakota Fanning) learn of her unusual abilities, and become convinced she’s a threat. While the Volturi prepare to confront Bella and Edward, the Cullens (including Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser and Kellan Lutz) span the globe looking for help. As the clairvoyant Alice (Ashley Greene) warns, a fight is coming, and they will need an army to protect themselves. This is not a series that appreciates subtlety, so the more everyone embraces its over-the-top outrageousness, the more fun we can all have. Sheen chews the scenery like a man who’s never been fed; an always-amusing Lautner keeps things real (while losing his shirt within the first few minutes); and the intense, well-staged finale delivers on its promise — with a clever kicker that strays boldly from Meyer’s novel. (One must ask, though: are these cheesy computer effects really the best a billion-dollar franchise could buy?)
Most important, Bella finally comes into her own, rejecting the pouty passivity that has been such a hallmark of her character. Neither Stewart nor Pattinson has shown great range in the sequels, but their characters shift in interesting ways here.
Bella saves herself — and many others -- this time around, and Edward, like us, can only look on in amazement. Finally, she’s been transformed into a heroine worthy of the immortality these films will give her.
