Westwood extends deadline to buy school after voters reject development
WESTWOOD, Kan. — Westwood, Kansas voters rejected an office project in April after filing a lawsuit to force a public vote. Thursday the clock was ticking on what to do next with a deadline looming Friday. 'What do you want your legacy to be 30 years from now?' Lou Wetzel asked City Council during a special meeting. Kansas City book box company feeling the impact of federal tariffs Residents filed a lawsuit back in 2023 to to a developer who along Rainbow Boulevard that is now Joe D Dennis Park. After last month's vote rejecting the project and preserving the current park the city was still on the hook for $2.785 million to the potential developers had planned to convert portions of to a new park. 'We have been put in a very challenging position on a very interesting timeline,' Councilwoman Holly Wimer said. As Westwood faced a Friday deadline to extend the purchase agreement or walk away a third option was included in meeting materials. 'Option B that would require wiring money tomorrow if there's not already somebody lined up potentially to do that,' resident James Spies said. 'That makes no sense to me.' 'There is no boogeyman buyer,' Mayor David Waters said trying to ease fears of many of the meeting's early speakers. Commissioners approve ordinance on American Royal project Any discussion about extending the agreement, logically includes what goes in the school's place, as Shawnee Mission has already applied for permits to tear it down. 'A clear majority of Westwood residents want to see the Shawnee Mission property used for homes that actually fit our neighborhood,' neighbor Tammy Carter said. 'Westwood is unified in trying to preserve as much green space as possible,' Spies said. 'That's something we tried to address with the previous project. There may still be opportunities with this or there may be opportunities with this to finance the current park that we do have to make some improvements there,' Waters said following the unanimous vote to extend the deadline to November 28, the fourth such extension since the sale was first negotiated.

East Kilbride boxer David Jamieson to rebuild after bruising Hydro defeat
The Westwood fighter suffered a third-round KO against Aloys Jnr David Jamieson will rebuild after Aloys Junior stunned a packed Hydro crowd with a devastating third-round KO against the East Kilbride boxer on Saturday. The pair went head-to-head for the WBA Continental cruiserweight title at the Glasgow venue, on the undercard of the Josh Taylor v Ekow Essuman bout. Jamieson was flattened in the third round, and The Real Deal was conscious, but struggling to move. Medics attended, but Jamieson was sat up after what was a crushing blow, and was later given the all-clear in hospital. He said: 'I'll take a bit of time, me and my wife will get away for a bit of sun, relax, and then come back and I'll look at things, see where we go. 'That's the game. We're all big boys – somebody's got to win, somebody has to lose, so I've been on both sides of the coin. You just need to dust yourself off and get on with it. 'It's now just a case of seeing what's next. It's a tough one at this stage. 'It's probably just a case of going away to reset, then come back. We would need to be rebuilding on the small hall shows again, and build yourself back up into title contention .' Jamieson says Aloys Jnr was the strongest fighter he has come up against, but the Hydro experience was still a good one, and has been grateful for an outpouring of support since. The experienced boxer said: 'He's an exceptional fighter. We knew he was a good lad, but serious power. Mikael Lawal was a big puncher, but Aloys was definitely the biggest. 'I've been doing this a long time and I could go into it, but there were a couple of shots behind the head. I protested to the referee, who wasn't really hearing it – but I never really recovered from those. 'Even since the fight, the outpouring of support has been mad, it has been great, everybody has been amazing. 'Walking out in front of a packed Hydro was a special occasion, the fans were very vocal and right behind me – if you could have bottled that it would be amazing.' Junior landed 24 punches and 25 jabs in a dominant display against Jamieson, and will now look beyond Commonwealth after retaining the belt. The fight began at a good pace, with Junior looking to line up the right hook that has made his name in boxing. He left his mark on Jamieson in the first round, landing a body shot and one to the head, dropping the home boxer to a knee. Jamieson beat the count comfortably and complained of a shot to the back of the head, but the referee wasn't interested. The Scot came back into the fight in the second round, forcing Junior onto the defensive, but a slamming body shot again dropped Jamieson to his knees. Jamieson was already struggling, before Junior hit him with a thunderous right hook to end the fight. Jamieson has been thoroughly backed by Kynoch Boxing Scotland, who said: 'David Jamieson ran into a serious talent in the form of Alloys Youmbi at the OVO Hydro. 'David had a nightmare start – being caught with two shots to the back of the head, and taking an eight-count. 'He didn't get going again after this, but showed the heart of a warrior, as always. 'Aloys put in an excellent performance – we wish him and his team all the best, going forward. He looks destined to go on to world level. 'David went to the hospital after the fight and was given the all-clear. 'David is a gentleman and held in high regard by everyone in boxing. 'He displayed once again that he will not back down from a challenge, and will always give it 100 per cent. We're proud to represent him.'

Demi Lovato Shares the First Photos of Her and Jutes's Wedding
Demi Lovato and Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes were married this weekend at a ceremony in California after three years together. Though details of the wedding are still private, she went into great detail about her gorgeous Vivienne Westwood gown in an interview with Vogue. The star stated that she has been a huge fan of Westwood's designs for years and knew the fashion house could give her exactly the look she wanted. 'When I was thinking about [what dress style I wanted] I often found myself coming back to Vivienne's designs—specifically how the silhouettes really compliment the curves in your body, and her use of corsets,' she added. The result was an off-the-shoulder white gown with a corset bodice and an A-line skirt that fell into a train behind her. She left her long dark hair down in waves, covering it in a cathedral-style tulle veil in matching white. 'We were not only able to work off that [initial] inspiration, but we added touches that really make this dress so special to me,' Lovato explained. The singer had a second Westwood look for the reception, featuring another corset bodice and column skirt, with her shoulders and neckline draped with broken pearls. 'There was so much attention to detail on the reception dress beading,' Lovato shared. 'The pearl detail and draping is such a special element, and each strand was draped and attached by hand, one by one. It's a one-of-a-kind piece that makes me feel so special.' Jutes was also reportedly dressed in his finest for the evening, wearing a Saint Laurent suit with jewelry from David Yurman and Spinelli Kilcollin. The couple has been together since 2022, after meeting in the studio as they worked on Lovato's album Holy Fvck. Jutes proposed in December 2023 with a pear-shaped diamond ring from Material Good's Teresa Panico. At the time, Page Six reported that he surprised Lovato at Craig's restaurant in West Hollywood, with their family and closest friends.
