The family of Quawan “Bobby” Charles are marching for justice in his name after the15-year-old’s body was discovered body on Nov. 3 in a sugar cane field near the village of Loreauville, Louisiana about 20 miles from his father’s home, NBC News reports.

Quawan  was taken without permission from his home in Baldwin on October 30.

Authorities are investigating the death as a homicide. Adding more mystery to the investigation, the Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Office has not yet stated what discoveries led them to name the investigation as a homicide.

The news comes as Quawan’s family marched with local activists on Saturday demanding transparency in the teen’s death which has led to series of unanswered questions. The family marched with demonstrators, gathering in front of the Baldwin Police Department, then marching to City Hall. Activists are calling for the Baldwin police chief, mayor and Iberia Parish sheriff and coroner to step down.

According to USA Today, Quawan’s mother reported his disappearance, but was told by local authorities that her son was probably at a local high school football game. His disappearance was reported to the local police, who then notified the Iberia Parish’s Office, according to a statement from authorities.

Lawyers for the family also question why an Amber Alert wasn’t issued for the minor after he was discovered in a shallow pool of water, leading to his likely death by drowning, which was listed as a possible cause of death in his autopsy report. An independent autopsy commissioned by the family corroborated the initial autopsy report, according to TMZ.

Family members question the nature of injuries on his body after a photo of his corpse circulated on social media over the weekend. They also inquire how he could have drowned in inches of water.

A $5,000 reward is being offered to anyone with information about his death.

Porsha Williams Reveals She Was Hospitalized & Fans Are Wondering Why

Porsha Williams revealed that she is home from the hospital on social media. But fans are wondering, why was she there in the first place?

“Thank you everyone for your well wishes. It’s good to finally be home from the hospital,” she captioned a photo of her hugging a teddy bear while sitting next to a few flower arrangements gifted by Bravo and others. “Thank you! I’ll see you all next week God willing. Biggest message I got from this week is to prioritize your health! You can’t just go and go. If you don’t God will sit you right in down and make you figure it out. Road to recovery…”

Her Real Housewives of Atlanta castmate Cynthia Bailey commented under the picture sharing her relief that Williams is home from the hospital.

“Amen! Can’t take our health for granted. Glad you are feeling better!,” she commented.

Amidst all the prayer emojis and get well wishes, fans questioned what happened to Williams. While many of her followers stated  that she must have had COVID-19, one follower said Williams passed out due to being under stress.  An Instagram user named Nature_of_Shannon said “she wasn’t eating out of stress and passed out.” This hasn’t been confirmed by Williams. Those who are assuming she had COVID-19 think Williams may be the person who contracted the virus and caused production of Real Housewives of Atlanta to abruptly end. According to Variety, production has been halted for two weeks.

“As part of ‘RHOA’s’ regular testing protocol, it was confirmed an individual on the ‘RHOA’ production tested positive for COVID-19,” they reported. “The set follows rigorous COVID-19 safety protocols including contract tracing. Out of an abundance of caution, production is shutting down for two weeks.”

The 13th season of the show was being filmed.

Whatever her diagnosis was, we are wishing Williams a speedy recovery.

NFL Week 9 Prediction Updates and Week 10 Picks!

http://www.thenerdelement.com/2020/11/14/nfl-week-9-prediction-updates-and-week-10-picks/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=nfl-week-9-prediction-updates-and-week-10-picks

So last week, I got some of the picks correct and some of them wrong. For instance, I predicted that the Bills would beat the Seahawks 30-21, but the actual score was 44-34 Bills over the Seahawks in a high scoring game. I predicted that the Steelers would beat the Cowboys 41-13 in a blowout, but the actual score was really close 24-19 Steelers over the Cowboys. I predicted that the Saints would beat the Buccaneers 29-27 in a close game, but the actual score was not even close. The Saints blew out the Buccaneers 38-3! Yikes!! That was not what I was expecting, but I was right about the pick though! I predicted that the Patriots would beat the Jets 28-10, but the actual score was 30-27 Patriots over the Jets. I predicted that the Cardinals would beat the Dolphins 31-16, but the actual score was 34-31 Dolphins over the Cardinals. The Cardinals lost that game because they were missing some key pieces on defense such as cornerback Byron Murphy(he was on the Covid-19 list), Dre Kirkpatrick, and linebacker Devon Kennard(Also was on Covid-19 list).The play calling was questionable by head coach Cliff Kingsbury on a 3rd down and 1 cost them the game along with going for the game-tying field goal instead of going for it on 4th down. I predicted that the Broncos would beat the Falcons 24-21, but the actual score was 34-27 Falcons over the Broncos.

So, I got 4 out of 6 picks correct!

Now let’s move on to week 10 picks, shall we?! The first game I will predict is the Jaguars @Packers game. I definitely think the Packers will get an easy win over the Jags 36-15. The next game I will predict is the Buccaneers @Panthers game. I think the Bucs will bounce back from a terrible lost with a win 26-13 over the Panthers. The Panthers running back Christian McCaffery will not play tomorrow which is a blow to the Panthers offense. The next game I will predict is the Washington Football Team @Lions game. I think the Lions will come out on top of the football team 30-16. The football team has not been playing very well since week 1 against the Eagles when they came back to beat them 27-17 after being down 17-0. The next game I will predict is the Broncos @Raiders game. I think the Raiders will come away with a win 31-24 over the Broncos.

 The next game I will predict is the Bills @Cardinals game. This should be a great game here. The Bills passing game is pretty good with good wide receivers such as Stephen Diggs (a formal Minnesota Viking), John Brown (a formal Arizona Cardinal), and Cole Beasley (a formal Dallas Cowboy). The Cardinals on the other hand are starting to get healthy on defense which they need to have to be ready for the Bills passing game. The Cardinals will have Devon Kennard, Byron Murphy, safety Budda Baker who was dealing with a groin injury, and possibly Dre Kirkpatrick depending if he is ready to go, although, a defensive tackle of the Cardinals Jordan Phillips a formal Buffalo Bill will not play tomorrow against his formal team, but they got a big help of a defensive end Markus Golden. So, I definitely think that the Cardinals will bounce back with a much-needed win over the Bills 34-23. The next game I will predict is the Seahawks @Rams game. A big divisional rivalry game. I think the Rams will beat the Seahawks 30-22 because the Rams are coming off the bye week and they are going to get the offense going with a no huddle offense and some wide receiver handoffs and their defense will do just enough to disrupt the Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, but the Seahawks will not lose by 40 points again, but they will still lose. The next game I will predict is the 49ers @Saints game. The 49ers are dealing with so many injuries right now and the Saints are on a roll. So, I definitely think the Saints will beat the 49ers 35-20 in a tough stadium like it is a playoff game. The next game I will predict is the Ravens @Patriots game on Sunday Night Football. I think the Ravens will beat the Patriots 42-24. The Ravens offense and the quarterback Lamar Jackson will use the running game to run all over the Patriot defense and they did that last year as well where they don’t have to throw a lot (like 60 times). The last game I will predict is the Vikings @Bears game. I think the Bears will come out on top 26-23 in a close game. The Bears defense will step up just enough to beat the offense of the Vikings and the quarterback Kirk Cousins will struggle a little bit to get things going despite that running back Dalvin Cook will be getting the ball a lot to help their running game.

So, what do you guys think of these NFL Week 10 picks?!

I would like to hear some comments, thoughts, or opinions down below!

Stay tuned for NFL week 10 predictions!

Some Disneyland Reopening Updates and Disney World Updates and More!

http://www.thenerdelement.com/2020/11/14/some-disneyland-reopening-updates-and-disney-world-updates-and-more/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=some-disneyland-reopening-updates-and-disney-world-updates-and-more

Hi everyone! Today I have some interesting updates about things Disney. At Walt Disney World, the Disney Parks division has lost another billion dollars last quarter, but there is some good news. These parks are still making money despite Disney not making as much money as they’re used to. CEO Bob Chapek revealed on the call that when Walt Disney opened in July, it was limited to 25% of total capacity, but that number has since increased to 35%. This increase is also good news to the bottom line because it means that the parks that are open are continuing to grow, which is that much more important with locations like Disneyland Resort and Disneyland Paris currently closed. While the road back to “normal” will certainly be a long one, this quarter’s results would seem to indicate that Disney’s theme parks are moving down that road right now. If the parks that are open continue to grow, then the operating losses will continue to decline, and at whatever point that Disneyland does reopen, it will be a massive boost to the bottom line.

Disney World confirms increased capacity as the parks are 77% booked for the holiday season.

Over at Disneyland Resort, The Disney CEO Bob Chapek is extremely disappointed in California rules keeping Disneyland closed. Walt Disney CEO Christian McCarthy announced on Thursday on the company’s fourth quarter earnings call that Disneyland is expected to remain closed until the end of the entertainment and media conglomerate’s fiscal first quarter, which falls on December 31.

On December 6, the Villas of the Disney’s Grand California Hotel is going to be opening up which is good news for the Disney Vacation Club, however, the Disneyland hotels will not be taking reservations until December 31 which means that Disneyland is expected to be reopening starting next year in January, maybe March or in the beginning of summer.
