Emily Ratajkowski: Slender figure + ample chest to pose NAKED for LOVE Magazine

She’s no stranger to showing off her figure but Emily Ratajkowski shocked fans when she posed naked for LOVE Magazine.

On Friday, the model left her entire body exposed when she shared shots on social media, with fans in awe of her incredibly slender physique .

The 26-year-old model completely revealed her breasts, as well as a portion of her lower region, in the risque photos.

In the nude snaps, the stunner wore only a short, boy-cut wig with full-front bangs, a pair of dangly earrings, and a necklace.

The first photo flashed a bit of the star’s ribs as she leaned up against a table and hunched her back forward.

In the second frame, the British-born beauty didn’t hold anything back, once again displaying the prominence of her ribs while propping herself up with her forearms on top of the table.

For the online image, the celeb hid her nipples behind red heart emojis and protected her modesty by placing the letters in her name over the sensitive spot.

Gas explosion sparks Melbourne plant blaze

A Melbourne chemical factory has burst into flames after a gas explosion, with firefighters still at the scene to contain toxic leaks.

Up to 28 firefighters are at the scene of the explosion at the DS Chemport factory in Campbellfield, with staff from the plant and surrounding factories forced to evacuate earlier on Wednesday.

Metropolitan Fire Brigade spokeswoman Heather Stockton said the cause of the explosion was believed to be an unknown gas from a “mixing pot” of chemicals that overheated.

“Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus are using hose lines to keep the product cool so that overheating does not occur,” she said in a statement.

She said gas levels were also being monitored.

Victoria Police closed the road and paramedics were at the scene, but no injuries have been reported.

In total 25 people were safely evacuated and a community warning was issued for the surrounding area.

It is expected emergency services will remain on site well into Wednesday night.

A Melbourne based events group which describes itself as ‘a night for homosexuals and those who love them’ has used controversial tennis great Margaret Court’s image on a promotional poster.

The veteran tennis player has been in the spotlight after she called for a boycott of Australian airline Qantas because the company supports same-sex marriage.

She has also claimed tennis is ‘full of lesbians’ and has linked gender dysphoria with communism and the devil in a radio interview.

The poster features Ms Court’s face along with the words ‘Closet Party’, promoting an event at a Melbourne nightclub catering for homosexuals ‘and those who love them’.

Cheese contains a compound that could prevent liver cancer – it may even help you to reach 100!

Many people avoid regularly eating cheese over fears of what it may do to their waistlines.

Yet, eating aged cheeses, including cheddar, brie and parmesan, could boost your liver health.

These cheeses contain a compound, known as spermidine, that stops damaged liver cells from replicating.

This may prevent liver fibrosis – the accumulation of scar tissue that occurs in most disease of the organ, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is the most common form of liver cancer.

Liver disease is the fifth biggest cause of death in England and Wales, and claimed over 11,000 lives in the UK in 2014. HCC makes up around half of the approximate 5,500 new liver cancer cases each year in the UK.

Researchers at Texas A&M University analysed spermidine treatment in mice.

When give over their entire lifespan, life expectancy increased by 25 per cent.

If the compound gave this life-length boost to humans, it could help them to reach 100, rather than the current life expectancy of 81, The Express reported.

Yet, any amount of spermidine could be beneficial.

Further research is required to determine if the compound can be made into a supplement.

#F1 What is different about these new wet and inter tyres the teams have been trying out this morning?

Here is how Pirelli explained today’s plan:

“We want to go through all the conditions, from extreme wet to intermediate to dry in the afternoon,” said Mario Isola. “This is useful to the teams to assess the crossover [point], it’s important for them to define that crossover.

“The tyres are different, so the numbers are not the same, and we believe it is important to give them this opportunity to assess this.”
