Family / TV News Anchor Arrested For Beating Her Husband (PICTURED) by blanco56(m): 7:53am On Aug 03, 2013
A TV news anchor in Santa Teresa, New Mexico was arrested for beating her husband.
Adrienne Alvarez, an anchor and reporter for
NBC affiliate KTSM in El Paso, Texas, was
arrested early Thursday morning on battery
charges.
The 28-year-old reporter was in a fight with her husband at about midnight Wednesday at their home in Santa Teresa, New Mexico, officials said. She was then arrested on suspicion of battery
against a member of her household and booked at the Doña Ana County Detention Center.
Alvarez was released later Thursday on $1,000
bail.
Calls to Alvarez’s news station were not
immediately returned Friday afternoon.
‘We are aware of the arrest but will wait for
more details before making any other
comments,’ Gary Sotir, general manager of
KTSM/KDBC told the El Paso Times yesterday.
Alvarez has been a reporter at the station since
2007. In 2011 she married her husband Hazael.
She has won numerous awards for her
reporting, including a 2009 Emmy. She was also voted by What’s Up El Paso as the Best
Newscaster Under 40 for 2011.
On her station profile, Alvarez says that in her
time off she likes ‘dancing, a good game of
Scrabble and spending time with her family.’

Romance / Terminally-Ill Bride Gets The Wedding Of Her Dreams by blanco56(m): 4:24pm On Aug 02, 2013
Jen Bulik has been dreaming about her wedding day ever since she was a little girl.

But she never thought it would turn out like this.

Diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer this past January, doctors have given the 35-year-old San Jose woman less than six months left to live. The news came as a shock to Bulik and her boyfriend of six years, Jeff Lang. Time has been slipping quickly out of her hands, but on Saturday, Bulik was finally able to stop and celebrate life.

Wearing a flowing pastel green wedding gown and clutching flowers in her hands, Bulik walked down the aisle with her head bared.

“I had a wig that I was going to wear,” Bulik told The News. “But then I thought about it and when I look back at these pictures I didn’t want to feel inauthentic. I wanted to be totally me.”

Bulik and Lang were planning on having a simple backyard wedding, with fold-out tables and paper plates. But when wedding planner Erica Ota heard the couple’s story, she wanted to give Bulik much more than that.

Ota was a hospital social worker before she dove into the wedding industry three years ago. The Brown University alumni decided to donate her time to this bride in honor of all the patients she had lost to cancer over the years.

With less than two weeks to plan, Ota was able to secure 65 Bay Area vendors who donated their professional services.

July 27 is prime wedding season, a time when most wedding vendors have their events booked nine months in advance. But the vendors were so touched by Bulik and Lang’s love story that some decided to hire additional staff to make sure the event went just as planned. Nearly everything at the wedding — from the gluten-free candy bar to the bridal bouquet — was offered free of charge. In total, the donations came to about $52,000.

“I’m in awe,” Bulik said. “I just feel so supported and validated for how graceful the whole process has been for me — it has come with a lot of grace.”

During the ceremony, the bridesmaids and groomsmen danced down the aisle to Blind Melon’s “No Rain” while Bulik chose to walk to Frank Sinatra’s “My Way.”

Using the bride’s wedding Pinterest board for inspiration, Ota planned a “rustic chic” wedding reception, complete with mason jars, twine and lemonade.

The bride used potted succulents as wedding favors, little plants that will continue to grow when she’s gone.

She also wore three different wigs to the reception, giving guests a surprise each time she came out.

The couple’s first dance was to Lady Gaga’s “Edge of Glory.” Listening to the lyrics — “I’m on the edge of glory, and I’m hanging on a moment of truth” — Ota said there wasn’t a dry eye in sight.
“She was glowing,” Ota told The News. “She didn’t look like somebody who was sick, who was told they have a few months to live. She was so vibrant and radiant.”

Now that the wedding is over, Bulik said she is still trying to wrap herself around the next few months. It will be tough, she says, but life can still be beautiful.

“Cancer is not easy. It takes a lot to get up in the morning sometimes,” Bulik said. “I guess what’s important is to find that source of hope within yourself and the courage to keep going forward.”
