‘How I Met Your Mother’ Actor, 36, Convicted of Attempted Murder

An actor who once appeared on How I Met Your Mother has been sentenced to 32 years to life in prison, over the 2024 stabbing of his estranged girlfriend. Nick Pasqual, 36, was found guilty last month of attempted murder after the attack on his former girlfriend, Hollywood make-up artist Allie Shehorn, at her Sunland, California home. Shoehorn, who appeared in court on Tuesday with visible scars on her arm and neck, said in her victim impact statement, “When I was lying on the floor in a pool of my own blood, I remembered wondering if this was how my life was going to end. I was terrified, I was in pain.” She added, “You, who I had once trusted, decided my life was something that you could take away.” The vicious attack, where Pasqual stabbed her over 20 times, happened after Shehorn ended the relationship, which she said had turned abusive. Jurors convicted Pasqual of attempted murder, noting the attack caused great bodily injury in a domestic case involving a weapon. He was also convicted of three counts of injuring a spouse or partner, one count of first-degree burglary and one count of forcible rape, which was tied to an alleged incident a month before the stabbing. A representative for Pasqual issued a statement on his behalf, which said he was “deeply saddened by everything surrounding this case, and I continue to wish healing and peace for everyone affected.” He added that he intended to “remain focused on sobriety, recovery, accountability, and a respectful appellate process moving forward.” He played Will in a 2011 episode of How I Met Your Mother and also appeared in Zack Snyder’s 2023 film, Rebel Moon.

Pat Boone marked his 92nd birthday with a rare social media appearance and a wish for more candles to come. The pop and rock music legend appeared in an Instagram video posted by his daughter, Debby Boone, after family members gathered to celebrate the milestone. “My wish is that we’ll do the same thing next year, and the year after, and the year after,” Boone said after blowing out his candles. Boone—a teen idol of the 1950s and ’60s—was one of the biggest recording stars of his era, selling millions of records and starring in a string of Hollywood musicals, including April Love. The birthday post comes after Boone recently shared his own tribute to his April Love co-star Shirley Jones, who also turned 92 this year. He recalled their decades-long friendship and revealed that the pair never kissed while filming the 1957 romantic musical because he did not want to upset his wife, Shirley Boone, who died in 2019.

Unless you’ve got the memory of an elephant, taking notes is a must. Remarkable has built a name for itself with innovative tablets that cut out distracting apps and focus on productivity.

Today, the brand is unveiling a new offering—the Remarkable Paper Pure.

The new 10.3-inch model is a marked improvement in every way. The battery is longer lasting (up to three weeks on a single charge), it features a crisper black-and-white canvas display, and it is 50 percent faster than the Remarkable 2.

Iconic R&B singer Peabo Bryson has died aged 75, just two days after suffering a stroke. “With broken hearts and profound sadness, the family of two-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and balladeer, Peabo Bryson, announces his passing,” the statement read. They confirmed he was “surrounded by the love of his family and those closest to him” when he died on Tuesday. No cause of death was provided. As well as being a popular solo artist, Bryson enjoyed major success with duets. He scored a 1983 hit with Roberta Flack, “Tonight, I Celebrate My Love.” Bryson also won two back-to-back Grammy Awards for Disney duets, “Beauty and the Beast” with Celine Dion in 1992 and “A Whole New World” with Regina Belle in 1993, from the movie Aladdin. Both movie themes also won Best Original Song, which was awarded to the songwriters. Bryon was due to play the Middle C Jazz Club in Charlotte, NC, on June 13 and 14, and had been performing as recently as last month. Bryson previously had a stroke in 2018 and was saved by his wife, who performed CPR for 20 minutes until help arrived. Bryson had been touring in celebration of the 50th anniversary of his debut album “Peabo,” released in 1976. He has a new album, “Grace,” recorded with Janet Jackson’s producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, that has yet to be released, as well as a memoir. His family said Bryson’s songs “carried generations through joyful celebrations, great love stories and enduring moments of comfort and inspiration, creating a legacy that will forever live in the hearts of those who loved him and the countless lives he touched through song.”

An MMA fighter was killed in a tragic bear attack while working at a uranium exploration site in northern Saskatchewan. Hrishikesh Koloth, 27, was doing contract work for Vancouver-based UraniumX Discovery Corp when he was attacked by a black bear—the fourth such incident in the Canadian province’s history. The bear was shot and killed by another civilian after the fatal attack. According to his brother, Arjun, Koloth was an MMA fighter who first trained in Kerala, India, his home state, and later in Canada at Skoden Martial Arts in Penticton. “That was his dream. That’s why he came here. He wanted to fight in the UFC,” Arjun told CBC. The 27-year-old had a coaching job lined up in Vancouver in June and was set to continue fighting to make his dream come true. His brother said, “A job is just a means to an end. The end was to fight.” Arjun remembers him proudly: “I want him to be remembered for what he does. Innocent heart, fighter’s soul. Warrior. And I’d just like to say he fought [the] bear. That’s all… bear didn’t attack him. He attacked the bear."

A skeptical Jason Bateman says it took one major Hollywood name to convince him that Netflix was the future. Speaking at Netflix’s “FYSEE Unplugged: Jason Bateman Retrospective,” the actor, 57, recalled initially dismissing the streaming giant’s interest in reviving Arrested Development after Fox canceled the cult comedy. “Are you talking about the company with the red envelopes and the DVDs?” Bateman remembered asking creator Mitchell Hurwitz. Bateman said his doubts vanished when acclaimed director David Fincher struck a massive deal with the company. “During the time we were thinking about it, that huge announcement that David Fincher just got $100 million in a two-season guarantee for House of Cards was like, ‘F---ing David Fincher is saying yes to Netflix?’” Bateman said, according to Variety. “That was just good enough for me and the rest of the industry. And off we went!” Bateman was reflecting on his career while promoting Netflix’s Black Rabbit, in which he stars opposite Jude Law as estranged brothers drawn back together by a family crisis.

A Swiss soccer star was forced to stay home from the World Cup following an 11-hour decision from U.S. authorities to review his clearance to travel. Breel Embolo’s travel authorization was placed under review just hours before the team was scheduled to leave for the U.S. for the World Cup. “Unfortunately, Breel Embolo is currently unable to travel to the United States with the team,” the Swiss Football Association said. The 6-foot-2 forward, 29, was convicted in 2023 for making threats to another player years earlier when he was 21. He requested an appeal in September 2025, but was rejected. Embolo has traveled to the U.S. since this conviction, even scoring a goal against the U.S. men’s national team in a victorious 4-0 match in Tennessee. The Swiss team, however, was optimistic that he will be able to make it in time for the World Cup. “One seat empty, but not for long😉 See you soon, @breelembolo97 ✈️.” The review raises legal concerns for other players with criminal records and teams of countries in conflict with the U.S. The Iranian team is also struggling with visa approval for its players and staff members, and has moved its practice facility to Mexico.

A 40-year-old American influencer was found dead in a luxury hotel in Brazil after flying to the country for plastic surgery, in what authorities are calling a “suspicious death.” Hilde Lynn Helphenstein, known online as Jerry Gogosian, was found on Sunday in her hotel room by her surgeon after she didn’t answer a phone call, according to Art Review. Authorities have not yet released a cause of death for the California native. She was found surrounded by an empty vodka bottle, a broken glass on the floor, and unidentified pills. According to authorities, the surgeon reported that he had previously taken her to the hospital in a prior incident, possibly due to an overdose, after she confided to him about her substance use. A hotel spokesperson told the publication Hyperallergic that they are collaborating with the authorities but would not share further details out of respect for the guest’s privacy and the ongoing investigation. The star had more than 150,000 followers on Instagram and pursued various ventures after graduating from the San Francisco Art Institute, including hosting a podcast and heading a popular art-world newsletter.

The White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner, which was interrupted in April after a gunman tried to assassinate President Donald Trump, is back on. Weijia Jiang, President of the White House Correspondents’ Association, says the event will take place on July 24. Trump, 79, confirmed he would attend the rescheduled event on Truth Social. The original April 25th dinner was cut short after 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen stormed the Washington Hilton and opened fire, shooting one Secret Service officer, who was saved thanks to his bulletproof vest. Trump said the revised event would be held at the Waldorf Astoria. “This announcement is a very good thing in that we cannot allow Lunatics to change our way of life, or even its scheduling,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “It will be a ‘HOT’ ticket! Interestingly, the location will be The Waldorf Astoria, on Pennsylvania Avenue, a Building and Ballroom that I built.” Trump didn’t, in fact, build the hotel, but he did lease it in 2013 and made major renovations to the existing structure before selling the lease in 2022.

A Georgia groom had his murder charges dropped against him for killing his wife’s stepfather on their wedding night after the state determined that there was “insufficient evidence” in the case. The incident, which occurred in July 2024, initially escalated when Kailagh White, the bride, told a drunk relative to leave after the ceremony, according to Butts County Sheriff Gary Long. Her husband, Aaron White, 33, tried to step in but was allegedly punched to the ground by Kailagh’s stepfather, Jason Maughon, 44. The conflict seemed to be de-escalating until Maughon and the drunk relative returned, with the relative firing a gun at Aaron and shooting him in the hand as Maughon charged at him, according to investigators. Aaron retrieved a weapon from his car and fired back. Maughon was later found dead in the woods with seven gunshot wounds. Initially, Aaron was not facing charges after a 2025 grand jury found he had acted in self-defense. However, the case was presented to another grand jury in January of this year after a renewed effort by Towaliga District Attorney Jonathan Adams, which led to an indictment on charges of felony murder and aggravated assault. The case was dismissed this week. “The State has determined that it cannot meet its burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt at trial due to insufficient evidence,” prosecutors wrote in a court filing. Maughon’s family slammed the decision, emphasizing that Maughon was unarmed during the entire interaction, with his father, Dan Maughon, telling a local news station, “We are looking for justice for my son,” adding that he was shot “seven times, once in the back and as he lay on the ground.” The groom has said he acted to protect guests, but the incident still haunts him. “It stays with you. It’s not something that really ever leaves you. You don’t forget it,” he told WSB-TV.

A truck driver and former soldier has unearthed a priceless 1,700-year-old gold ring in the English countryside. Kevin Minto, an amateur detectorist, was searching farmland close to Ilminster in the south west of the U.K. when his detector picked up on the buried object. He initially assumed he’d located a coin or a brooch. “You’re a little dumbfounded, really. One of the boys I was with was screaming: ‘We’re rich, we’re rich,’” he said. The piece features an engraved gemstone depicting Victoria, the Roman goddess of triumph, steering a chariot drawn by two horses. Weighing 48 grams and dating to roughly A.D. 297, the object is believed to have belonged to someone of considerable standing during years of regional turmoil under Roman occupation. The South West Heritage Trust, a historic association, paid £78,000 ($105,000) for the ring and 297 accompanying coins. Senior curator Amal Khreisheh hailed the find as “an unparalleled discovery for Britain.” Minto, who paid off his mortgage with his share, says he’ll continue to visit the site where he unearthed the ring, hoping to find other treasures.
