Brandi Glanville Tells LeAnn Rimes: My Sons Are Not Your Boys! Read more: http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/brandi-glanville-tells-leann-rimes-my-sons-are-not-your-boys-2012212#ixzz2Dwzau5fc Follow us: @usweekly on Twitter | usweekly on Facebook
Brandi Glanville and LeAnn Rimes are in a war of words . . . again.
On Nov. 30, the country singer tweeted about a weekend getaway with her husband, Eddie Cibrian, and her stepsons, Mason and Jake. (Rimes and Cibrian had an affair on the 2009 set of Lifetime's Northern Lights; the singer was wed to chef Dean Sheremet at the time, while Cibrian was married to Glanville.)
"Flying out with my boys in a few hours. Love that it's a family tour weekend," Rimes wrote. "It's always more fun when they are with me."
"It was a last minute family trip," she added. "The best kind!"
Rimes' comments didn't sit well with Glanville, 40, who responded the following day. "Someone is trying to get under my skin by calling my children 'her boys. So transparent!" the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star tweeted. "They are my boys, Eddie's boys and your stepsons. . .for now."
The model also retweeted a fan who asked, "Why is it ok for LeAnn to whore out Brandi's kids on Twitter, but they can't appear on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills?" (Cibrian refuses to let his sons appear on the Bravo reality show.)
Rimes, who performed in Lincoln City, Oregon, chose not to retaliate via the social networking site. She did, however, share pictures of Cibrian, 39, Mason, 9, and Jake, 5. Rimes also retweeted a fan who wrote that "being a stepmom is such a hard role to play, but only the strongest women can handle it."
Choosing not to respond to Glanville directly, Rimes decided to focus on the positives in her life. "I'm going to bed as one of the most blessed girls in the world," the musician tweeted. "I am so grateful for all the love I have in my heart and in my life."
In August, Rimes, 30, voluntarily checked into rehab for anxiety and stress. The "Borrowed" singer later said she had been the victim of cyber bullying in the wake of her 2009 affair with Cibrian.
"I think it's really hard to deal with Twitter and Facebook," Rimes told the Boston Herald. "And it's hard to take it day after day of reading and seeing things that someone you don't even know says about you. As much as you said you don't want it to penetrate, it does, because you're human."

Chinese grandfather models women's clothes and becomes internet hit
His granddaughter, Lv Ting, who is a women’s clothes seller with Taobao, China’s biggest online shopping service provider, was having trouble finding a model when her grandfather kindly volunteered.
The South China Morning Post reported that within days of the photos being posted online, they had gone viral and he had become a worldwide sensation.
It proved very good for business too, with latest reports showing sales had increased six-fold.
Ting said she was surprised how good her grandfather looked in the clothes, as well as the wigs, stockings and accessories.
Weighing 110 pounds and standing at 5 feet 5 inces tall, she said Xianping was the perfect model.
Xianping told the Shanghaiisthe was happy to help his granddaughter.
"Why unacceptable (for someone like me to wear women’s clothes? Modelling for the store is helping my granddaughter and I have nothing to lose. We were very happy on the day of the shooting. I’m very old and all that I care about is to be happy."
Microsoft speaks poop to power
The more data centers are built, the more power is consumed.
The more power is consumed, the more people rely on that power.
The more we rely on the grid, the more chance there is, perhaps, that something will go wrong.
The more we become reliant on the cloud, such a calamity will annoy more people who are desperate to, um, watch Netflix or stare at Instagram.
Microsoft doesn't want to risk taking any verbal dung from you on such matters, so it announced today that it is building a data center powered by, well, waste matter.
Yes, your Microsoft cloud uploads could soon be powered by your own personal downloads.
Microsoft's pilot project is in Wyoming, where men are men and restrooms are redundant.
At the Dry Creek Water Reclamation Facility in Cheyenne, Microsoft believes it can capture "natural bi-products like biogas directly from wastewater treatment plants, agricultural farms, fuel refineries, and waste landfill sites, etc."
The company is confident that it can enjoy the successful collection, treatment, and consumption of biogas to create a beautiful carbon-neutral data center.
Its project is known as the Data Plant.
Helpfully, Microsoft's announcement was accompanied by some fine answers to questions that might cross the mind of simple humans like myself.
The company believes that wastewater plants are a kindred spirit to data centers.
These are things that just can't go wrong. Or, in Microsoft's words, they are "mission critical facilities with high availability infrastructure built into the plant."
What is new, Redmond feels, is "the collection, treatment, and consumption of biogas at the source," lessening the need for filtration and pipelines. Yes, the plant and the data center will be next to each other.
Self-sufficiency would seem to be a very fine goal. If this project proves to be successful, the next place for the technology to be used is surely Congress.
I have a feeling that the whole of the East Coast could be powered by the waste matter that is so regularly produced there.
