Talk about courtroom drama!

Former Guess Inc. fit model Lindsey Ring is suing the fashion company, alleging that its CEO Paul Marciano of making unwanted sexual advances toward her, including groping and suggestive comments, according to WWD.

Filed in the Los Angeles, Calif. Superior Court, the lawsuit goes on to charge that Guess cut back Ring's fit model hours when she resisted Marciano's come-ons, and that she quit February of this year because she feared for her physical safety, reports the source.

Claiming mental anguish and emotional distress, Ring is seeking damages for lost wages, benefits and medical expenses.

But it looks like Guess Inc. will be staunchly fighting the suit: VP and general counsel Deborah Siegel said, "The case has no merit," the site reports.

The fashion company known for its bombshell Guess girls now has bi-coastal lawsuits: Guess was sued by a New York City landlord.

My sister was considering laser resurfacing to get rid of her wrinkles and instead of going through that expense, I urged her to reconsider and try Beauty Lift ( http://cli.gs/BeautyLiftSP ) with me. I read that it contains the most potent, doctor grade wrinkle erasing serum that revitalizes the skin and reduces signs of aging I ordered two jars of Beauty Lift and sent one to her about 3 months ago. Recently we were together for her birthday and we both were impressed with the smooth look and softer texture of her skin. It was no accident, Beauty Lift is in a class by itself when it comes to reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

I have always been very afraid of aging, you know, becoming old and useless and unattractive. When I turned 50, I decided to do something about it. I've spent fortunes on face creams and anti-aging serums… but using GenFX is the first time I've tried turning back the clock from the inside out. It's also the last time I'll spend a fortune on face creams! Now everyone says I look 35!

the posters with the ads are wasting their time. The real real money is doing what the girl in this article did..see it happening all the time. I know a couple women who tried this and they are the ones who did the seducting, not their boss. But, money is money and some people have no scruples. This girl in the article? Who knows....I just think it is way over done.
