Marilyn Howard Ellman, Daughter of The Three Stooges' Curly Howard, Dies at 86
Marilyn Howard Ellman, the youngest daughter of The Three Stooges star Curly Howard, died May 6 in Simi Valley of heart failure, her son Bradley Server told The Hollywood Reporter. She was her parents divorced and her father often on the road at the height of his career in the early 1940s, Ellman only got to visit him maybe two weekends a month, her son noted. Later, she would spend time with him in the hospital after he had suffered a series of strokes, one of which forced him to leave The Three Stooges in 1946. 'My mom vividly remembers how much he loved animals,' Server said in a 2020 interview. 'She would always play with a dog he had. And he absolutely adored this dog that stood by him until the end. You know, despite my grandfather's big personality onscreen, I learned he was actually a shy, quiet man in private.'

Curly had been replaced in the act by brother Shemp Howard, who joined another brother, Moe Howard, and Larry Fine. Marilyn Howard was born in Los Angeles on Dec. 18, 1938. Her dad — birth name Jerome Lester Horwitz — and mom, Elaine Julia Ackerman, were married for three years before they divorced in 1940. (Curly would have a second daughter named Janie with his fourth wife.) After Curly's death, she was adopted by her mother's second husband, Moe Diamond, when she was 14. Ellman graduated from North Hollywood High School and attended USC for two years before she worked as a procurement buyer in the electronics business. She would marry twice, and her survivors include her older son, Darren; daughter Andrea; granddaughter Elizabeth; and half-brother Michael. Bradley Server performs slapstick comedy on social media under the stage name Curly G, short for 'Curly's Grandson.' 'Our mother will be deeply missed, and she will never be replaced as the matriarch of our family,' Bradley said. 'Her love, compassion and wisdom has shaped all of us.'

Bitcoin's Resilience During Tariff Chaos Impresses Wall Street Firm Bernstein
"Hi Curly, kill anyone today," said Billy Crystal's Mitch to Jack Palance's Curly in City Slickers. "Day ain't over yet," replied Curly. Bernstein, though, is ready to call it a day, saying bitcoin's (BTC) being down just 26% from its record high of less than three months ago shows resilience. Previous crises, such as the Covid-19 epidemic and interest rate shocks, saw the world's largest cryptocurrency "fall of the cliff" with 50-70% drawdowns, the report noted. The price action "suggests demand from more resilient capital," the analysts led by Gautam Chhugani wrote. "Bitcoin's digital gold thesis has strengthened driven by growing institutional adoption - institutional flows via ETFs and corporate treasuries," the authors wrote. Still, tariffs are bad news for the miners. They impact the mining supply chain, and this has negative implications for the U.S. bitcoin miners' hashrate, Bernstein said. The hashrate refers to the total combined computational power used to mine and process transactions on a proof-of-work blockchain, and is a proxy for competition in the industry and mining difficulty. Large bitcoin miners, such as Riot Platforms (RIOT), IREN (IREN), MARA Holdings (MARA) and CleanSpark (CLSK), could gain market share as they are already scaled and have artificial intelligence (AI) optionality, the report added.

M&S's Easter egg collection includes a huge chocolate custard creme
The Easter bunny has already dropped off this year's Easter eggs and it's the best time of the year for chocoholics. The seasonal line-ups become more extravagant every year, and this especially true in M&S's range for 2025. Last year saw slightly unusual Easter egg animals like Curly the cockapoo but the brand's offering this year truly goes off the rails, introducing luminous green characters like Toby the T-Rex (£7, Ocado). There are over-the-top loaded eggs filled with solid chocolate and sweets like the M&S Scrummy Bunny Munch Egg (£12, Ocado) while pistachio lovers will adore the the indulgent, extra thick pistachio egg (£20, Ocado). There are even eggs filled with luxurious Marc De Champagne truffles (£12, Ocado). But the crème de la crème is surely the custard cream-inspired egg (£12, Ocado). It stretches the definition of 'egg' to the extreme; it's an almost absurd piece of chocolate designed to look like a massive custard cream. It's no surprise it's doing the rounds on TikTok, but we had to see if all the hype is deserved. Keep scrolling to find out more about the range, plus where to buy. Calling all custard cream devotees. A chocolatey take on the classic biscuits, this egg consists of a hollow milk chocolate shell with biscuit pieces throughout and a layer of custard cream inside. This is an upgrade to tea and biscuits if ever we've seen one. The most expensive in the range, this extra thick pistachio and milk chocolate egg lived up to its name. In our review, food writer Emma Henderson said it was 'undoubtedly the thickest' she tested. The 40 per cent Belgian milk exterior contains chopped and roasted pistachio pieces and is decorated with a branded green M&S logo. 'We were impressed with the overall flavour, which really tastes like pistachios, and not that fake flavour you sometimes get with cheap gelatos', she said. 'It's creamy, smooth and seems to demand just one more bite'. If you're as obsessed with pistachio flavour as the rest of the internet, you need to know about these pistachio rolled eggs, which are going viral on TikTok. The eggs contain a smooth pistachio crème, but if that wasn't enough, they're also coated in roasted chopped pistachios. If you love M&S's outrageously chocolatey milk chocolate rounds, then we think you'll be pleased with this supersized version. Just bear in mind that it isn't a blown up replica of the original biscuit, but a hollow thick milk chocolate shell with delicious biscuit pieces running throughout. Keen to try a half filled Easter egg? Described as chunky, crunchy, and chewy, this milk chocolate-filled egg is loaded with extra teats. There's white chocolate-coated toffee popcorn, milk chocolate mini eggs with a speckled candy shell, milk chocolate covered salted pretzels and raspberry flavour jelly nuggets. There's a mallow and orange wine whips and orange jelly pieces iteration (£12, too. Can't resist a Marc De Champagne truffle? This Easter egg looks as luxe as it does delicious, with its patterned, 40 per cent Belgian milk chocolate shell coating complete with eight milk chocolate Marc De Champagne truffles. Prefer fruit flavours and darker chocolate? Opt for the option with raspberry truffles instead (£12, If you love blond chocolate then look no further – your dream Easter egg awaits. The egg comes in an elegant, tall silhouette and features pretty detailing, while inside the egg is a soft milk truffle centre with large salted caramel truffles and caramel pieces. Toby the T-Rex is a must for budding palaeontologists and dino-enthusiasts. Crafted from marbled milk chocolate, he features green colouring, scales and yellow eyes, but we're sure he'll be more tasty than terrifying. This is a paw-some offering for dog lovers – meet Ralph the cavapoo. With his collar and intricate scruffy coat, he looks almost too cute to eat. Made with marbled white and milk chocolate, we hope he tastes as good as he looks. Mint-flavoured chocolate fans, rejoice. The textured shell of this egg is made with mint flavoured milk chocolate and comes with mini milk chocolate eggs with a mint flavoured candy shell. If mint isn't your go-to flavour, M&S is doing a plain milk chocolate £7.50, and an orange version (£7.50, of this egg too. Flossy the Highland cow is one of the cutest designs this year, with a sweet pink nose and wide brown eyes. Made entirely from chocolate that has been produced with responsibly sourced cocoa. Our 'moognificent' friend and comes in a simple plastic-free box – like all of M&S's Easter egg packaging this year. Whether you're dabbling in veganism or have been dairy-free for a while, M&S's Charlie the bunny is made with dairy-free chocolate. From the novelty treat's bunny ears to its bushy tail and cute face detailing, Charlie means everyone can get involved in the fun this Easter. One for fans of white chocolate, Milky Bars have nothing on this pretty pup. Dougal has sweet stick-up ears and a pink tongue, finished with a dark chocolate nose and eyes. The chocolate is responsibly sourced and contains 20 per cent cocoa solids minimum, giving the eater a smooth cocoa buzz that's said to taste 'pawfectly' delightful. This hollow white chocolate egg is decorated as a chipper chick for Easter, complete with an orange beak and feathers details for extra effect. Perfect for livening up a family Easter egg hunt, it's a steal at just £3. Almost too cute to eat, M&S's Nibbles the bunny is a hollow milk-chocolate treat. Decorated with long floppy ears and sweet little paws, Nibbles's endearing face and whiskers will see hearts melt. At just £3, why not buy a whole family of bunnies?
