Columbia U to pay more than $A334m after Trump fight
Columbia University has reached a deal with the Trump administration to pay more than $US220 million ($A334 million) to restore federal research money that was cancelled in the name of combating anti-Semitism on campus. Under the agreement, the Ivy League school will pay the settlement to the federal government over three years, the university said. It will also pay $US21 million ($A32 million) to settle investigations brought by the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. "This agreement marks an important step forward after a period of sustained federal scrutiny and institutional uncertainty, acting University President Claire Shipman said. The administration pulled the funding, because of what it described as the university's failure to squelch anti-Semitism on campus during the Israel-Hamas war that began in October 2023. Columbia then agreed to a series of demands laid out by the Republican administration, including overhauling the university's student disciplinary process and adopting a new definition of anti-Semitism. Wednesday's agreement codifies those reforms, Shipman said.

Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness finalise divorce
Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness have finalised their divorce, almost two years after they separated. The pair split in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage but Furness, 69, filed to officially end their marriage last month, and it has now been signed off by a US judge. According to People magazine, online court records from New York's Suffolk County Supreme Court show that a judgment of divorce was filed on June 12, and later uploaded to the website. When Furness filed for divorce from the 56-year-old Australian actor, she indicated the terms were uncontested and would only need a sign-off from a judge. It was revealed days after the filing that the pair had begun to separate their shared assets. According to property records reviewed by People, a limited liability company (LLC) tied to Furness paid $US11.7 million to the LLC the couple had used when they acquired a Manhattan penthouse in New York in 2022 for a reported $US21 million. The home is now valued at around $US23 million, with the Real Deal first to report the sale. Jackman and Furness' former luxury apartment, located in a landmark building in Chelsea, spans nearly 464 square metres across two floors, with an additional 343 square metres of outdoor space. Situated near the Hudson River, the area is known for its distinctive architecture and celebrity residents. The property is one of several high-value homes acquired by the pair during their nearly three-decade-long relationship. Jackman and Furness reportedly still own residences in New York's West Village, the Hamptons, a waterfront condominium overlooking Bondi Beach as well as other properties in the US, UK and Australia. They met on the set of the Australian TV series Correlli in 1995 and married on April 11, 1996. The pair adopted their son, Oscar, now 24, in 2000, and their daughter, Ava, 19, in 2005. Last month Furness issued a separate statement discussing the emotional impact of the split. "My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal.

Deborra-Lee Furness and Hugh Jackman's finances split
Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness have begun formally separating their shared $596 million fortune as part of their divorce proceedings. The transaction was recorded on May 25, two days before 68-year-old Furness filed for divorce from Jackman, 55, following 27 years of marriage. According to property records reviewed by People, a limited liability company (LLC) tied to Furness paid $US11.7 million ($A18 million) to the LLC the couple had used when they acquired a Manhattan penthouse in New York 2022 for a reported $US21 million ($A32 million). The home is now valued at around $US23 million ($A35 million), with the Real Deal first to report the sale.

It's a profound wound that cuts deep," she said. "However, I believe in a higher power and that God or the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working for us.

Friends star terrorised: Jennifer Aniston's stalker appeared in court shirtless as he faced felony charges
Prosecutors say a Mississippi man who harassed Jennifer Aniston for two years before crashing his vehicle through the front gate of the Friends star's Los Angeles home has been charged with felony stalking and vandalism. Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, 48, of New Albany, Mississippi, also faces an aggravating circumstance of the threat of great bodily harm, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said on Wednesday. Carwyle, who has been held in jail since his arrest on Monday, is set to be arraigned on Thursday. His bail was set at $US150,000 ($A233,000). It was not immediately clear if he retained a lawyer. Carwyle is accused of repeatedly harassing Aniston — referred to by the district attorney only as Jennifer A — by sending her unwanted voicemail, email and social media messages starting in 2023. Then, early Monday afternoon in LA's wealthy Bel Air neighbourhood, Carwyle crashed his vehicle through her front gate, causing major damage, prosecutors said. A security guard stopped him in her driveway before police arrived and arrested him. Police said Aniston was home at the time. There were no reports of anyone being injured. Messages left with her representatives seeking comment were not immediately answered. Caryle appeared in court shirtless, wrapped only in a blue blanket, as he fronted up to a judge over allegations he attempted to break into the star's mansion. Carlyle could get up to three years in prison if he is convicted as charged. 'My office is committed to aggressively prosecuting those who stalk and terrorise others, ensuring they are held accountable,' Hochman said in a statement. Aniston bought the mid-century mansion on a 1.4-hectare lot for about $US21 million ($A33 million) in 2012, according to reporting by Architectural Digest. She became one of the biggest stars on television in her 10 years on Friends. Aniston won an Emmy Award for best lead actress in a comedy for the role, and she has been nominated for nine more.
