JEZEBEL – If you’re in dire need of an escape to someplace quiet, you might consider the tiny Italian village of Paroldo, population 230, where benevolent witches apparently roam the “maze of medieval alleys” and cure people of ailments that leave doctors baffled.

CELEBITCHY – In other Game of Thrones news, Jason “Khal Drogo” Momoa has followed in co-star Kit Harington’s footsteps and shaved his (facial) hair. But Momoa hasn’t been on the show in years, so this decision seems somehow more and less logical than Jon Snow’s
