A look at the jurors for George Zimmerman's trial

Here are some details about the six women on the jury in George Zimmerman’s second-degree murder trial, as they shared during two weeks of jury selection in June. Their names will be released sometime after the trial. Judge Debra Nelson has said she’ll decide the timeline after a verdict. They began deliberations Friday afternoon.

___

B-51 is retired, not married and doesn’t have kids. She has lived in Seminole County for nine years. She has worked in real estate and run a call center where she said she had experience resolving conflicts. When asked if Zimmerman did something wrong by following Martin instead of waiting for police, she said: “Yeah, I guess he did do something wrong.”

___

B-29 recently moved to central Florida from Chicago. She enjoys watching the “Real Housewives” on television and works as a nurse on an Alzheimer’s section of a nursing home. She said she hadn’t paid much attention to the shooting. She said she has been arrested, but her case was disposed of. It’s not clear why she was arrested or exactly what happened to her case, though she said she was treated fairly. She is married and has several children. A prosecutor described her as “black or Hispanic” during jury selection.

___

B-76 is a white woman who has lived in central Florida for 18 years. She manages rental properties with her husband of 30 years. She has two adult children, including one who is an attorney. She is involved with rescuing animals in her free time. During jury selection, she said she had been the victim of a nonviolent crime. “Everyone deserves a fair trial,” she said.

___

B-37 is a white woman who volunteers rescuing animals. She is married to an attorney and has two adult children. She said she and her husband used to have concealed weapons permits. During the last round of questioning, she said she had an issue with the type of weapons people are allowed to carry. She also thought weapons’ training was inadequate for people seeking permits. “It should become harder,” she said.

E-6 is a white woman who is married and has two children. She has worked in financial services and has lived in …read more

Report: Land Rover to decide soon on production Evoque Convertible

By Brandon Turkus

Land Rover Evoque Convertible

Filed under:

Ignoring the lessons learned from the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet, it appears Land Rover may be about to greenlight production of the Range Rover Evoque Convertible. At least, that’s what Australian website Car Advice is saying.

The topic came up at a Land Rover executive meeting for the Asia Pacific region, with brand director John Edwards supporting the idea.

Really, it’s not hard to see the dollar signs in Land Rover’s eyes. The Evoque has been a runaway success for the Anglo-Indian brand, and is largely responsible for it cresting 300,000 units sold in 2012. But this piece also flies in the face of previous reports, arguing against a production Evoque Convertible due to a lack of public demand.

As popular as an Evoque Convertible would be with the Real Housewives set, all the scuttlebutt has been against a production for the droptop Land Rover, going back to its debut at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. With the 2013-2014 auto show season on the horizon, though, we can expect a definitive answer soon.

Land Rover to decide soon on production Evoque Convertible originally appeared on Autoblog on Fri, 12 Jul 2013 16:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Sheree Whitfield, Atlanta ‘Housewife,’ Says Her Mansion Is For Her Kids (VIDEO)

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Sheree Whitfield, a former cast member of “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” has been building her dream mansion — Chateau Sheree — for years. When Sheree and Iyanla Vanzant visit the unfinished home in a new episode of “Iyanla: Fix My Life,” the reality star sees the structure as a beautiful property with great potential. Iyanla, however, has a different perspective, believing the home represents how many parts of Sheree’s life are also incomplete.

As the two women walk up the long drive to Chateau Sheree, Iyanla asks the former reality star what she thinks when she sees her in-progress mansion. “I think it’s going to be beautiful when it’s done,” Sheree says in the clip. “It’s something that I did for my kids. For my family.”

“Why is that for your children?” Iyanla asks.

By The Huffington Post News Editors

It was a scary moment in the rehearsal studio when Lisa Vanderpump collapsed suddenly. News broke over the weekend that the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star had collapsed during rehearsals for “Dancing With the Stars.” Fans got to see that moment unfold on the latest performance episode of the show.

Vanderpump has been blogging her “DWTS” experience for People magazine, and she wrote about the incident. She explained that she had a viral infection coupled with exhaustion. That led to a rapid heart rate and low blood pressure. Then, lights out.

After the frightening incident, it wasn’t clear if Vanderpump would be able to continue with the show. In fact, she waited until 15 minutes prior to showtime to make her final decision. The show must go on!

Brandi Glanville’s Chest Can’t Be Ignored In Plunging Minidress (PHOTOS)

By The Huffington Post News Editors

We try not to make a habit of reporting the fashion choices of “Real Housewives” cast members, but some things are too ridiculous to be ignored.

The last time we saw Brandi Glanville, our girl from Beverly Hills, she was turning heads at the Academy Awards in a plunging nude gown that she designed for herself (yes, really). But the reality star caught our eyes again last night at the 2013 Bravo New York Upfront party. Again with the cleavage, Brandi?

This event was decidedly more casual than the Oscars, so the 40-year-old went with a mesh red cocktail dress with a wide-set neckline that practically reached her belly button. Need we say more?

Lisa Rinna On ‘Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills’: Season 4 Cast Rumors

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Watch out Lisa Vanderpump, another Lisa — Lisa Rinna — could be heading to “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”

According to RadarOnline, Rinna has been approached to join the Season 4 cast of Bravo’s “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.” “Lisa already knows people at Bravo and they really like her. She’s funny but she’s got a great sense of humor so she can send zingers,” a source told the gossip site.

In 2011, Rinna revealed she was close to joining the show’s cast for Season 1. “We were in discussions originally,” Rinna said. “I was up for it, and at the time I did my show instead of ‘Beverly Hills.’ It was part of the process, but then my show came along so I ended up doing our show.” The show Rinna referred to was “Harry Loves Lisa” on TV Land.

Lisa Vanderpump, Gleb Savchenko On ‘Dancing With The Stars’ Woes, Sexy Dances And More

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Lisa Vanderpump has a theory as to why she and Gleb Savchenko wound up in the bottom three on “Dancing With the Stars,” and it has to do with “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”

No, it’s not some plan castmates and former friends Kyle Richards and Adrienne Maloof cooked up — just unfortunate timing.

“I think it was hard because we weren’t in the bottom three for dancing, but my show airs in the two hours that ‘Dancing With the Stars’ airs,” Lisa told The Huffington Post in a phone interview. “It was my wedding renewal last week in our finale and the first part of our reunion. I think a lot of my fanbase was watching that show. I think that hurts us. We really just need guys to vote and support us. More than anything, we’re just having an amazing time.”
