Heather Graham, 55, stuns fans with braless red carpet look after dishing on maintaining her youthful glow
Heather Graham left fans stunned with her braless look at film festival Filming Italy on Thursday. The Boogie Nights alum easily defied her 55 years in a plunging brown-lace and patterned gown - which flashed her ample cleavage - as she posed. Heather kept her make-up minimal and wore her signature flaxen mane side-parted in waves. Graham maintains her youthful appearance by getting 12 hours of sleep a night and doing regular YogaWorks workouts, daily affirmations, and practicing transcendental meditation for 40 minutes a day. 'I work out, eat healthy, do yoga, and mediate,' the Gunslingers actress revealed in her Retreat Magazine cover story last week. 'There's a very hard, sweaty class that I love.' Heather also avoids white flour and refined sugar and she doesn't drink alcohol or do drugs. Heather Graham managed to pull off yet another age-defying look as she sizzled at film festival Filming Italy, which was held at Forte Village Resort in Santa Margherita di Pula, Italy on Thursday 'Eating healthy makes me feel good. I like cooking for myself and other people. And I love when people cook for me. Basically, I like eating,' Graham explained. 'Also, I do affirmations. I think they are very powerful. I work on strengthening my inner loving parent muscle, so I can be supportive and loving to myself. One of my affirmations is, "This is the best time of my life."' Missing from the Independent Spirit Award nominee's side was her boyfriend since 2022, professional snowboarder John de Neufville. And while Heather never married nor had children, she clearly has a bond with the 46-year-old Vertical Change founder's 10-year-old son Johnny. Graham previously romanced silver-screen leading men like Leonardo DiCaprio, Josh Lucas, Edward Burns, Matt Dillon, and the late Heath Ledger. The Chosen Family director-star is also said to have loved and left the likes of Scott Speedman, Corey Feldman, Kyle MacLachlan, James Woods, Adam Ant, Jon Favreau, Elias Koteas, Russell Crowe, Benicio Del Toro, and Matthew Perry. On June 10, Deadline revealed Heather signed on to be a recurring guest star in Mike Flanagan's eight-episode reimagined reboot of Stephen King's 1974 novel Carrie through Amazon MGM Studios, which is scheduled to film through October 17 in Vancouver. And last month, Graham was cast as wronged wife Sophie in Hernán Jiménez's big-screen adaptation of Jane Fallon's novel Getting Rid of Matthew, which begins shooting this October in Toronto. The extramarital affair rom-com will also feature Luke Wilson and Emma Roberts - according to Deadline. The Wisconsin-born blonde's other upcoming films include Nick Simon's 1974-set supernatural horror film Within, A.J. Tesler's inspirational drama Maybe We Should, and Kirill Sokolov's horror thriller They Will Kill You. Heather took a seat beside an unidentified gal pal and Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning actor Shea Whigham, whom she posed for a selfie with at Filming Italy. Graham posed with The Ritual actress Ashley Greene, who wore a sheer striped top with black trousers. The two-time SAG Award nominee then hit the stage and lined up with numerous other celebs including Nathalie Emmanuel, Pom Klementieff, Jane Seymour, and Fran Drescher. Also spotted at Filming Italy was The O.C. alum Mischa Barton wearing a single-strapped white midi-dress with silver sandals.

Tyrese Haliburton and his father John Haliburton. Image via: Ron Hoskins/NBAE/Getty Images In a must-win Game 6 clash between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, Tyrese Haliburton's father, John Haliburton, became an unexpected scene-stealer at Gainbridge Fieldhouse— not for his courtside antics this time, but for a bold outfit that had fans doing double-takes. As the Pacers fought to stay alive in the NBA Finals, John's fashion choice lit up social media and stirred conversation across fan bases. John Haliburton wears an NBA-wide statement for Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers John Haliburton arrived at Indiana's final home game of the 2025 postseason in what can only be described as a fashion wildcard. Wearing a Pacers jersey on top, John paired it with white pants decked out with logos from multiple NBA teams. But what truly puzzled fans was the visible placement of the Oklahoma City Thunder logo on the back of his left leg. The opposing team's emblem on a Pacers supporter, especially the father of a franchise star, was bound to raise eyebrows. Most would expect a more traditional display of loyalty in such a high-stakes setting, but John has never followed convention. His outfit was a reminder that he plays by his own rules. It appears that John was there to make a statement, wearing a Pacers T-shirt, which seemingly symbolizes that the team will remain undefeated. The rest could refer to the fallen teams in the play-in and playoffs, and possibly the Thunder in the finals. Fans shared their reactions to John Haliburton's unexpected outfit Fans online rushed into the comments to share their thoughts on the hilarious moment. Here's how they reacted to the classic John Haliburton moment. 'Next level fashion,' one user wrote. Another fan commented, 'Drip or drown, no in-between.' 'My fit in middle school,' one fan joked. 'John Haliburton is definitely a character!' one fan candidly acknowledged his style. 'Brothas of a certain age, am i bugging, or do all the versions of these pants have the logos organized in a similar order. I always remember that bulls on the left thigh, hawks on right hip, and that '6ers at the right ankle,' another shared. This isn't the first time John has made headlines this postseason. Earlier in the playoffs, he was temporarily banned following a heated exchange with Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo.

How to do Outbound Sales for Cybersecurity Companies
Cybersecurity firms are under pressure to differentiate in a market overwhelmed by fear-based messaging. While threats like ransomware and data breaches dominate headlines, the real challenge often lies in helping businesses understand what they need and why they need it. Outbound sales play a critical role in that conversation. Outbound sales is the process of reaching out directly to potential customers rather than waiting for them to come to you. For cybersecurity companies, outbound sales can play a crucial role in building brand awareness, generating leads, and educating the market. Today, you will learn simple ways to conduct B2B outbound sales for cybersecurity products and services. Before any outreach starts, you need to be clear about who your ideal customers are. In the cybersecurity space, it is not enough to say, 'We serve all industries.' You must be specific. For example, do you help e-commerce brands with PCI compliance? Do you protect healthcare companies from patient data leaks? Or do you secure cloud-based teams from phishing attacks? The more specific your buyer profile is, the better your outbound campaigns will be. It allows your messaging to sound relevant and tailored. You can also segment your outreach by company size, geography, or compliance needs. Cybersecurity is complex. Many business leaders are unsure about the type of protection they need. That is why outbound efforts should focus on education rather than hard selling. Your emails, LinkedIn messages, or cold calls should explain a common threat, share a short insight, or mention a real example of a breach. This helps prospects connect the dots between their problem and your solution. Instead of saying, 'We have the best firewall,' try saying ', Many remote teams struggle with device-level security. We help reduce that risk.' Keep the focus on problems and values. Many cybersecurity firms avoid cold calling. They worry it will feel intrusive. However, when done correctly, B2B cold calling can help you initiate high-quality conversations. A good cold call is concise, clear, and respectful of the recipient's time. Introduce yourself, mention the company name, and share one strong sentence on what you help with. For example: 'Hi, this is John from ABC. We help HR tech companies reduce phishing attacks across remote teams. Is this something your team focuses on?' The goal is not to sell on the call. It is to obtain permission to continue the conversation or schedule a brief meeting. Always have your next step ready, such as sending a case study or a calendar link. Not every company is ready for your service. That is why cybersecurity sales teams should use data to qualify and prioritise leads. Look for signs that a company might need help. For example: They recently raised funding and will scale quickly They just moved to the cloud They serve industries with strong compliance needs They announced a new remote workforce policy These signals show which companies might have urgent cybersecurity needs. You can gather this data using tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator, company websites, or funding news portals. Cybersecurity sales is not always a direct line to the CISO. Sometimes, IT managers, DevOps leads, or even compliance officers are the right people to start with. Your outbound messages should be tailored to the specific persona. A finance leader may care about breach costs. An IT manager may care about usability. A founder may care about customer trust. Good outbound sales means speaking the language of the person you are reaching out to. Cybersecurity deals do not typically close in a single email. They often require multiple touches. That is why consistency is key. Space your follow-ups out across email, LinkedIn, and phone to ensure a consistent approach. Share different types of content each time, such as a blog post, news article, or short PDF. This keeps your outreach fresh and value-driven. Use tools to manage these sequences so nothing slips through the cracks. A well-timed follow-up is often what leads to a booked call. Outbound sales for cybersecurity companies are most effective when sales and technical teams work together. Your sales reps must understand the basics of your service, but they should also be able to bring in a security expert when needed. This builds trust with prospects. They will see that your company is serious about solving their security needs, not just closing a deal. Lastly, treat outbound like a process. Track your metrics: open rates, reply rates, meeting conversion, and deal pipeline. Notice which messages perform best. See which industries show more interest. Adjust your approach based on real data. Over time, this helps you create a repeatable and scalable b2b sales motion that brings results. Reaching the right audience in cybersecurity is rarely a passive process. Outbound tactics, such as cold calling, tailored emails, or a well-timed LinkedIn message, enable companies to explain what makes their solution relevant. The goal is not just to sell, but to educate, initiate genuine conversations, and get on the radar of decision-makers who may not yet be aware of their vulnerability. Always use multiple channels, send follow-ups, and keep proof of your services ready. Outbound sales is an effective way for cybersecurity firms to grow their business and protect more companies from digital threats. TIME BUSINESS NEWS

Co-pilot laid to rest in Sewri, Dombivli bids goodbye to young flight attendant
1 2 Mumbai: Air India co-pilot Clive Kunder, 32, who was killed in the Ahmedabad air crash on June 12, was buried in Sewri cemetery on Thursday. His family accorded him a ceremonial farewell complete with a formal invitation card, funeral band, black hearse and floral wreaths. And in Dombivli, throngs of people converged to mourn young flight attendant Roshni Songhare, 26, whose death has left her parents bereft of their main breadwinner. Around 9am, Clive's family brought his coffin to his residence at Sunteck City Avenue 1 at Ram Mandir, Goregaon West. A small ceremony unfolded in the lobby and after an hour the coffin was taken up to his house. Capt Kunder's parents Clifford and Rekha and sister Camille sat by his body. A neighbour said, "He was a kind soul. Such a tragic incident should not have befallen him." Executives from Tata Trusts, the owner of Tata Group of companies, gathered at his funeral service. They stood alongside his family and friends to pay their respects and share in their sadness. A large wreath of white flowers with his name was placed on his coffin by Tata Trusts executives. At 1pm, the hearse drove to Sewri Christian Cemetery accompanied by a funeral band. Under the grey, drizzling sky, the ceremony began at 3pm. Clive's remains arrived in a white-silver casket with white rose wreaths and bouquets of red roses. Lifelong friends Stephie and Raya spoke of his selflessness and his loyalty to his family. "Let us take a moment to gather our anger, sorrow, frustration, but mainly, our pride in Clive. He has not died, he is only flying higher." Then, like a mantra against despair, they intoned Walt Whitman's 'O Captain! My Captain!' Next came Arun Balachandran, who knew Clive as a schoolmate he bumped into at Kalina bus stop. "We used to play football together," he recalled. Pastors of UBM Church Kurla and Ambernath followed with the remainder of John 11:30-44, reminding the mourners that even Jesus knew the sting of sorrow. The choir struck up Horatio Spafford's 'It Is Well with My Soul' accompanied by guitars and violins. In Dombivli, flight attendant Roshni Songhare was cremated in Dutt Nagar. At 9.30am, the coffin reached her house in Rajaji Path where her wailing mother Rajashree waited in vain to see her one last time. Since the body was damaged and packed in a coffin, the family was instructed not to open it. The last rites were performed the same way. Senior Air India officials were present including Saurabh Agrawal, executive director and group CFO of Tata Sons Pvt Ltd, and Ju Li NG, divisional vice president and head of cabin crew of Air India. Mourners including Shiv Sena MLA Rajesh More watched as Roshni's father lit the pyre. Meanwhile, Badlapur cabin crew Deepak Pathak has not yet been identified. His brother-in-law and sisters are still waiting in Ahmedabad.

Watch: Pope chants ‘White Sox' at Vatican City
Pope Leo XIV joined in with fans chanting 'White Sox' as he greeted visitors to the Vatican. A clip from what appears to be St Peter's Square shows the Pope waving to supporters as he is driven through the crowd. A group can be heard chanting 'White Sox, White Sox!', the baseball team that the Pope, who is originally from Chicago, supports. He appears to stop waving to the crowd to pump his hand in the air several times and can be seen joining in with the chants. Leo is the first American pope, and grew up in Dolton, a suburb on Chicago's South Side. Shortly after Pope Leo was elected, his brother John revealed that he supports the White Sox, and the team were quick to shout about his support. 'Hey Chicago, he's a Sox fan,' the team said of the Pope on a a billboard, paying tribute to him as 'the South Side's very own' before a game last month. One fan was spotted walking around greeting passers-by wearing a papal cassock and mitre. Footage has since emerged of the Pope attending one of the 2005 World Series games, in the team's black-and-white baseball jerseys. The Sox went on to win their first championship in almost 90 years. Last week, he was given a White Sox cap by a newlywed couple undertaking the 'sposi novelli', a blessing for newlyweds given by the Pope himself. Gary DeStefano, the groom, from Massachusetts, said the moment the Pope popped the cap on his head was 'surreal'. 'It was to me showed the human side in the man. He is the most humble man, down to earth and funny,' Mr DeStefano told The Athletic.
