So here is the sneak peek I have been waiting days to see and blog. Ang and Drita find Alicia and Drita's picture, taken in Vegas, in the papers and are in shock! Total SHOCK! How could this happen? Alicia is out on bail! So did Alicia LIE to the judge in order go to Vegas? Big Ang, who has been there, done that, knows that when you are out on bail you have to ask the judge for permission to travel. Ang adds if you don't ask and get caught, you go directly to jail. Hmmm, very interesting. So let me see if I got this right...I made up a list in the form of a multiple choice question for all fans:<br /><br /><b>So far we have heard which of the following about <a href="http://www.mobwives.blogspot.com/2014/01/mob-wives-whats-problem-with-vegas-pics.html"><span style="color: red;">Alicia's trip to Vegas</span></a>?</b><br /><br />a. Alicia says she is under travel restriction and cannot leave tri-state area.<br /><br />b. Alicia lied to the judge about going to West Virginia, and then made a detour to Vegas.<br /><br />c. Alicia's lawyer said Alicia is allowed to go anywhere in the US, including Vegas.<br /><br />d. Alicia's lawyer said he thought she was home in New Jersey, when asked if she was in Vegas.<br /><br />e. Alicia tweeted and instagramed pictures of herself and cast in Vegas.<br /><br />f. All of the above.<br /><br />g. I wouldn't believe Alicia if her tongue came notarized.<br /><br />h. f & g<br /><br />I chose f & g. We have heard or read all of the above lies/excuses over the Alicia pictures and trip to Vegas, which of them is true is anyone's guess. And this is supposed to be reality?

Once this sediment reaches the pressure and heat found at depths of about 60 miles (100 kilometers), it releases its water, reducing the melting temperature of the surrounding rock. This leads more rock to melt and rise, eventually bursting from volcanoes as lava that helps add to continental mass.

Detroit drafted Stafford No. 1 overall in 2009 and after two injury-shortened seasons, he has been spectacular at times and shaky at others.</div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389763404569_4040" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.454545021057129px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">When the Lions needed him most, he was at his worst last season. He had an NFL-high 14 turnovers from Week 11-16 as Detroit dropped five of six games, plummeting out of first place in the NFC North and wasting an opportunity to win a division title for the first time since 1993.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.454545021057129px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Caldwell's first job as a head coach was at Wake Forest, which fired him in 2000 with a 26-63 record over eight seasons. Caldwell, who is from Beloit, Wis., played defensive back for Iowa and began his coaching career in 1977 as a graduate assistant with the Hawkeyes.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.454545021057129px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Caldwell later went on to coach quarterbacks, wide receivers and outside linebackers from 1982-84 for Bill McCartney at Colorado.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.454545021057129px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">''He's one of the finest people I've ever met,'' McCartney said in a telephone interview.

He's ready for this.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.454545021057129px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">''Every home, every business and every NFL team rises or falls because of leadership.

Some international retailers have reportedly begun listing the Galaxy Note 3 Neo, aka the Note 3 Lite, on their websites for a sky high 560 euros.</div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389762497738_25887" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Dutch website Nieuwemobiel.nl reports that the Galaxy Note 3 Lite is already being listed for a price that equates to roughly $765. This seems unlikely given that the off-contract listed price for the Galaxy Note 3 is around $700. The website also says that the Note 3 Lite should be available on Feb. 3, while previous rumors have suggested the device will be revealed at Mobile World Congress toward the end of February. The premature product listing shows a white Galaxy Note 3 Lite available for sale, but theres no spec info listed.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Its unclear whether or not Samsung will actually launch a scaled-down version of its newest phablet, but the company certainly has a tendency to release multiple product versions. The Korea-based electronics giant now sells five versions of the Galaxy S4, including the standard version, the Galaxy S4 Mini, the Galaxy S4 Zoom, the Galaxy S4 Active and the LTE Advanced version.

Or as <em>Reuters</em>puts it, “the intensifying competition is a new challenge to a U.S. industry long used to imposing its will on consumers, and analysts fear it could result in the loss of billions of dollars of revenue.”<span id="more-2765025"></span></div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389762497738_21063" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Jefferies analyst Michael McCormack, for one, told <em>Reuters</em>that he found it “most disappointing” that <a data-rapid_p="10" href="http://bgr.com/tag/att" style="color: #324fe1; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">AT&T</a> has been reacting to T-Mobile’s “Uncarrier” moves by offering special offers of its own. After all, it’s harder to <a data-rapid_p="11" href="http://bgr.com/2013/10/23/att-q3-2013-earnings/" style="color: #324fe1; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">maintain sky-high margins</a> when you’re <a data-rapid_p="12" href="http://bgr.com/2014/01/03/att-t-mobile-450-dollar-offer/" style="color: #324fe1; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">offering T-Mobile subscribers an extra $200 bonus</a> to switch.</div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389762497738_21609" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Roe Equity Research analyst Kevin Roe, meanwhile, said that T-Mobile’s moves have created an “unhealthy market dynamic” that “will continue until AT&T has market-share stability,” which likely won’t be until it fights many more bloody battles with T-Mobile over wireless subscribers. And New Street Research analyst Felix Wai told <em>Reuters</em> that he feared the added competition would force carriers to spend more on marketing, a move that would once again eat into their margins.</div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389762497738_21621" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">Of course, the average customer should cheer all this Wall Street hand-wringing: To use some Econ 101 terminology, the loss of carrier margins will mean an increase in consumer surplus in the form of lower prices. Or put another way, what’s bad for big wireless carriers might just be good for everyone else.</div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389762497738_21621" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;"><br /></div><div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1389762497738_21621" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.000001907348633px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">-BGR</div></div>
