Now this is a classic case of true automotive passion versus practicality and convenience. The Alfa Romeo 159 is hands down one of the most attractive and sexy cars available in the planet. This seems to be the winning formula of Alfa Romeo as it still manages to produce handsome and well kitted cars for a price that undercuts the usual German suspects by the thousands.
This is not to say that the Alfa Romeo 159 is an impractical choice altogether. The cabin is a fairly comfortable place to be and rewards both drivers and passengers with class leading headroom and legroom both in the front and the back. Boot space is what you would expect from a midsize car but is marginally smaller than what a Mercedes C-class and BMW 3-series has to offer.
The dashboard instruments are one of the best in the class and are highlighted by big and bold dials. The dashboard layout is simple and fuss free. The buttons are sized just right for the application and are clearly labeled for ease of use. The only problem with the Alfa Romeo 159 is the perceived build quality that plagued the Alfa鈥檚 of old. The same can be said for the poor dealer service and resale values that seem to be the primary complaint of past Alfa owners. But when in the market for a solidly built and attractive looking car then the 159 seems to fill all the checkmarks in the book.
Harvey Weinstein’s former personal assistant has sued the disgraced Hollywood mogul claiming she was required to clean up after his “sexual encounters Curtis Samuel Youth Jersey ,” according to court documents filed Thursday .
Sandeep Rehal is suing Weinstein, his brother Bob, The Weinstein Company and the company’s head of human resources Frank Gil for being “forced to work in a pervasive and severe sexually hostile work environment,” The Hollywood Reporter reports.
Rehal — who began working for Weinstein in 2013 when she was 26 years old — quit in February 2015 when she reached “an emotional breaking point Devin Funchess Youth Jersey ,” per the documents.
Weinstein has denied Rehal’s allegations. A spokesperson for the producer told PEOPLE in a statement that “Mr. Weinstein categorically denies these claims and his lawyers will respond in the appropriate legal forum with evidence proving they are untrue.”
The documents state that “much of Ms. Rehal’s work as an employee of TWC involved catering to Harvey Weinstein’s sexual appetites and activities,” which included being involved in both the “preparations” and the “clean up” of Weinstein’s “extremely prolific sexual encounters.”
Rehal claimed those preparations included maintaining a “list of contacts with a special asterisk that identified Harvey Weinstein’s ‘girls,’ ” purchasing women’s lingerie, “managing the stock” of Weinstein’s erectile dysfunction injections Shaq Thompson Youth Jersey , and setting up an apartment close to Weinstein’s office “for him to use with one of his sexual liasons.”
Rehal also claimed that part of her duties included cleaning up “the semen on the couch in Harvey Weinstein’s office,” which Rehal alleged “happened on a regular basis, three or so times a week when Harvey Weinstein was in New York.”
Rehal went on to allege that Weinstein “used sexist and sexual language” to refer to her in the office and that “on an almost weekly basis” she was “required to take dictation of emails from [Weinstein] while he was naked.”
Additionally, she also claimed that “almost every time” she drove with Weinstein in his Lexus SUV James Bradberry Youth Jersey , “he made her sit in the back with him and touched her thighs.”
And far from being a secret, Rehal claimed that Weinstein’s “sexual abuse and conduct, and his use of the office, TWC Taylor Moton Youth Jersey , and the staff to enable it” was “common knowledge.”(Agencies)
