José Guízar has a simple outlook to his work – to entertain. And why not? He's got a portfolio of treats that do just that. Nice. By day he plies his trade at New World Monkeys.
Brian DeFrees set about an epic 12,225 mile roadtrip around the U S of A, capturing each day in photos on Picframe and Instagram. But that's not all, using a camer mounted in his car, he took shots every 5 seconds to create these great timelapsed videos.
Stunning work from Swedish agency Kurppa Hosk. Gloriously crafted and stripped back type, understated colour and minimal image and iconography all conspire to create a beautifully balanced body of work. Lovely, lovely, lovely… Tw. @kurppahosk RUN-00 from suprb on Vimeo.

Секваните () са келтско племе в Галия.

Първо те обитават изворите и долината на Сена, по-късно се заселват на територията между Сона, Рона и планината Юра. Названието им се свързва и с името на речното божество Секвана, от чието име произлиза и името на река Сена. Техен опидум е Везонцио (), днешен Безансон.

Римска власт

Цезар пише за секваните в De Bello Gallico. Той съобщава имената на техните крале Катаманталед и сина му Кастик, като последният е определян от автора като "приятел на римския народ". Късноримската провинция Максима Секванорум (), намираща се в диоцез Галия, е наречена на това племе.

Recently, I got divorced and it was a stressful situation for me. I think I was not guilty enough that my ex-husband got separated. Actually, he was in love with another woman in a bar in Hong Kong where he worked as the barkeeper. I do not know how everything happened and it was all of a sudden that I got the divorce documents sent from my ex-husband. So, I was worried. This is a smart cue card question for me and I will explain the matter in brief.
Actually, I could not tolerate the matter at all. I turned mad in emotions and could not bear the fact he left me for another girl. I loved him from the deep of my heart but he was a traitor. It was tougher for me to accept that he really got separated from me. We made a family for over five years and everything was destroyed. I lodged a complaint against him with the local police station pressing the charges that he divorced me without any solid reasons.
I think the reactions of other people would be the same. In some cases, the behaviours would be too rude and even may lead to serious accidents. Actually, women with the soft mind like me are unable to bear the matters. They want happy families but such disasters will ruin their lives.
I did not feel any sense of guilt. It was my natural reaction and it would be the same for the others too. Everything was settled later and the man has been providing a monthly allowance for me and my baby boy of two years old. I am happy that I was calm and did not commit any serious mistake that would have been harmful to me in the later stages.
"Describe how you behaved in a stressful situation."
Often people undergo stressful situations and this cue card question is about behaving during the situations. The candidate can also follow the hints below to prepare their answer.
1. The sudden death of my pet was a shocking event for me. I loved the cat so much but unluckily it died from sickness. The cat was my constant companion at home and this was a stressful situation for me. It took a long time to recover the stress.
2. Having credit card has some benefits but it can be stressful if someone crosses the limit. I experienced a similar event. The credit limit exceeded that created a stressful situation for me. A couple of notice issued form the bank worried me much.
3. I was dismissed from my work for some mysterious reasons. I could not believe that my authority would fire me from work. The situations were stressful for me. I had no job but two others were relying on me.
4. The unexpected news of a plane crash in Japan made me worried to death because my dad was travelling to Singapore during this time. He, however, called after an hour to let us know that he was safe.
5. My younger brother has derailed and his news on imprisonment made me stressed. He was caught with drugs and investigations found him guilty. So, he was awarded a six-month imprisonment. I was highly stressed about the matter. It was me who had to complete all the legal formalities.
6. Motherhood is a divine blessing but I was not ready indeed. When the doctor told me the matter, I was stressed instead of becoming glad. Doctor asked me to get prepared for a motherhood. Actually, unplanned pregnancies are filled with difficulties. I had to consider my career and some other factors.
7. A band of snatchers ran away with my iPhone and I was worried about the matter. The phone contained all my necessary documents, photos, music and more. Later, I erased all the documents using iCloud service. But it was a very stressful situation for me.

The Hidden Words was revealed by Bahá'u'lláh on the banks of the Tigris River in 1857. It was revealed partly in Persian, and partly in Arabic.
The Hidden Words is referred to as "dynamic spiritual leaven cast into the life of the world for the reorientation of the minds of men, the edification of their souls and the rectification of their conduct". Baha'u'llah Himself refers to it as "the inner essence" of that which was "revealed unto the Prophets of old" clothed "in the garment of brevity."
It is written that "these holy Words have not been revealed to be heard but to be practised" and as such we are exhorted to recite them daily, memorise them, and strive to align our conduct with them.

Biden Shifts Away From Trump Rules With New Emissions Standards For Cars
President Biden on Thursday will unveil proposed rules that would set new fuel efficiency and emissions standards for vehicles, surrounded by union officials and carmakers that the White House says are behind the direction he's headed.
Transportation is the country's largest source of greenhouse gases, and the updated standards are a central plank in Biden's plan to cut climate-changing emissions.
The new rules run "multiple thousands of pages" in length, a senior administration official said, and are based on a deal that California made with some automakers that saw them voluntarily adopt 3.7% annual improvements in vehicle fuel economy and emissions standards through 2026.
"What we're hearing across the board is a consensus about the direction which this industry is going," the official told reporters ahead of the announcement.
Specifics about the new standards were not clear Wednesday night, with a White House fact sheet saying only that they build off of the California framework, and that the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Transportation will announce how they're addressing the Trump administration's "harmful" rollbacks.
The Obama administration had set fuel economy and emissions standards to improve at a level of 5% annually. The Trump administration had rolled those targets back to 1.5%.
Biden will also sign an executive order Thursday that the White House says will set a schedule for standards for future vehicle model years.
Biden has previously said he has a goal of making the U.S. carbon neutral by 2050 — a goal that would require most cars to run on new technologies, like batteries, instead of gas.
The executive order will also set a target of zero-emission vehicles representing half of all new vehicles sold in 2030. This category includes battery-electric, plug-in hybrid electric and fuel cell electric vehicles.
Biden will be joined at a White House event by officials from the United Auto Workers as well as executives from Ford, General Motors and Stellantis.
Tied to the administration's announcement, the car companies stated in a joint statement Thursday their "shared aspiration to achieve sales of 40-50% of annual U.S. volumes of electric vehicles … by 2030 in order to move the nation closer to a zero-emissions future consistent with Paris climate goals."
The infrastructure deal Biden struck with a bipartisan group of senators would spend billions of dollars on electric vehicles, though it's a far lower amount than his original jobs and infrastructure package. Democrats are looking to include additional climate measures in a package they plan to pass along party lines.
Former President Donald Trump loosened fuel economy and emissions standards, and started a legal battle with California over the rules.
That created enormous uncertainty about the future of vehicle emissions standards, and the risk of two different standards (one for California and more than a dozen states that follow its rules, and another for the rest of the country).
The auto industry split over the issue, with some carmakers striking a deal with California to maintain stricter emissions standards, while others supported Trump.
Since Biden's election, the automakers who backed the Trump administration have dropped their support for his looser standards and endorsed the idea of setting a somewhat higher bar for fuel economy — one that's uniform across the entire country.

Encore Presentation: Interview With Janet Jackson
Aired February 7, 2004 - 21:00 ET
LARRY KING, HOST: Thanks for joining us. From the water cooler to the FCC's board room, everybody's still talking about Janet Jackson's revealing half-time show at the Super Bowl, that includes Janet and fellow performer, Justin Timberlake.
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, SINGER: I didn't fly in to Houston until the day of the Super Bowl. Got a call prior to the show from Janet and her choreographer saying they want to do a costume reveal. Now I was under the impression that what was going to be revealed in the costume reveal was a red braziere, boustier, forgive me.
And got in, didn't really have time to rehearsh it, got to the field, went on stage, was in the moment, and when what happened, happened, I mean, I was completely shocked and apalled. And all I could say was, oh my god, oh my god. I immediately looked at her. They brought a towel up on the stage. I immediately covered her up. I was completely embarressed.
And just walked off the stage as quick as I could.
JANET JACKSON, SINGER: My decision to change the Super Bowl performance was actually made after the final rehearsal. MTV, CBS, the NFL had no knowledge of this whatsoever. And unfortunately, the whole thing went wrong in the end. I am really sorry if I offended anyone, that was truly not my intention.
KING; We last spoke with Janet in July of 2001. She joined us from Vancouvor where she was kicking off her successful "All For You" tour. It was a fascinating hour, where we really got to know the woman behind today's controversy.
KING: Your Web site says that this tour will show off your newfound freedom and desire to have fun. Will you explain that?
J. JACKSON: Well, that is what it says, huh?
KING: Yeah.
J. JACKSON: Well, you know, it's just in a different space in my life, and I think it shows on the album. And of course, I feel that it has no other choice but truly to show with the show, because there is a change within my life that has happened for the better.
KING: Obviously -- we are going to talk about that -- because everybody talks about it, but let's hear it from your side, because it is bad to read rumors and the like. This secret marriage to your second husband is over now, right?
J. JACKSON: Yes. But there are still some things we are going through, still certain legalities that are happening so I can't talk too much about it. But what would -- were you going to ask something about it?
KING: Yes, a little bit. First, why was it secret?
J. JACKSON: It was something that we both decided to keep a secret. I feel that marriage is very sacred, it is a beautiful thing. And I wanted it to be as normal as possible. Being in this business, I feel it is really difficult, that there is a lot of negative energy.
I have heard time and time again lots of people, when you announce that someone is getting married, they often wonder how long it is going to last as opposed to putting positive energy out there. And wishing them the best. And I wanted to have something as normal as possible -- we wanted to.
And we thought it would be best to keep it quiet. I think we were very successful. We were together for 13 years married and for 8, and I think a great deal of that had to do truly with keeping it a secret. Now, a few family members knew. And a few friends. Those who could keep a secret.
KING: But you were married, was it difficult? Even though it was a secret to the outside world, you still were both married, you are in a career, that you know, where you get a lot of attention. Was it hard?
J. JACKSON: Was it hard to keep it a secret?
KING: To be married.
J. JACKSON: To be married. No. Not at all. It wasn't -- I -- you know, it -- like everything, it has its ups and its downs, and it gets tough when you have that working relationship as well as being married, and working together. But it wasn't difficult at all being married.
KING: And when Janet, did it -- I just want to get through this and then discuss a lot of other things. When did it get to be difficult because we thought originally this was going to be an amiable parting, that the two of you were very civilized about it. And then suddenly we hear it has gotten rough. Why?
J. JACKSON: Yeah, I did, too. I thought it was -- part you know, on good terms and still remain friends, which is something that I really wanted. Because that is how we actually started: We were best friends. And then we have this -- attraction. It was -- I guess that is a question that is really for Rene really is, why? More so than myself. I think that is best way to answer that.
KING: He is the one that has originally said -- he originally said, we just grew apart and we started going in different directions. Now there is a report that he sues you for $10 million, he is threatening to write a tell-all book.
J. JACKSON: Yes, I have heard all about that.
KING: What do you know about that?
J. JACKSON: I have heard those things. We don't -- unfortunately, we don't speak anymore, but I have heard him say that it is not true in the past. But whether it is really true or not, I don't know, really don't know if he is going to write something or not, and if he does, I mean, I -- I'm not going to -- life goes on, you know.
KING: Were you shocked by it, Janet? Were you shocked by his actions?
J. JACKSON: Of course, I was very shocked by it. Did it hurt? Yes, it did because when you are with someone and you see a completely different side of them, you have the same views on so many things, especially marriage, and what you bring into the relationship is what you walk away with, and those were things that we had always talked about. And, then to suddenly see it -- a totally different side of someone that you never thought ever thought existed, that was -- it hurt. It really did hurt.
KING: And do you know what they are hinting at with, tell-all? Tell-all what?
J. JACKSON: I don't know. I thought I was quite boring. But maybe I'm not.
I don't know. Compared to the rest of the folks in my family, I suppose -- tell-all, I don't know. I guess that is where the -- you make up stuff -- that is where that comes in.
KING: When you see rumors about you, does it bug you? People write all sorts of things about the Jackson family. When someone gets as famous as you have gotten, does it -- I mean, I have seen people write that you were -- you liked women better than men, I have seen...
J. JACKSON: Oh, yeah...
KING: Does it bug you? Do you comment? How do you feel about it?
J. JACKSON: No. It, you know, it doesn't bother me when I see things about myself. It bothers me when I see things about my family members. My brothers, my sisters, my parents. That is what hurts me. I can pretty much, you know, brush it off when it is something about me. It just goes in one ear and right out the other.
And it is also about someone, next week about someone else, the week after someone else. And, more so than anything, it is people like gossip and they like to stay away from their own issues, I believe, and focus on someone else. And we are human just like everyone else and we have our (UNINTELLIGIBLE), and there are rumors that go on about us just like at their work.
KING: So, for you, you are at the stage where you can just brush it off.
J. JACKSON: Yeah, I have been there actually for a while. It is not the first time that it happened to me.
KING: No. You have been on stage all your life.
J. JACKSON: Since I was 7 years old.
KING: We will take a break and come back. Janet Jackson kicks off her new tour, the "All for You" tour. It starts Thursday night in Vancouver, that is where she is at right now. We've got lots to talk about, we've got questions from our Web site, and we will be taking your calls as well.
Janet Jackson is with us for the full hour. Don't go away. We'll be right back.
KING: We're back. What a talent! Janet Jackson, always good to have her. Her new album, "All for You," is No. 1 on the charts, it's the name of her tour.
Now, a couple of songs in that album. One, "Son of a Gun," in which you get mad at somebody about getting money to and call him greedy. In truth, you said I have a career before you, and didn't I? I had lots of friends before -- are you referring to your marriage?
J. JACKSON: In truth, I am. Yes, definitely.
KING: So did you write those songs or were they written for you?
J. JACKSON: There was a -- all the songs on album I actually wrote, except for "Truth," I -- just conceptually with Jimmy and Terry. Terry wrote the lyrics for "Truth. " For "Son of a Gun" there was a line or two that I wrote in there, but the concept actually came from Jimmy, Terry and myself, and Terry wrote those as well.
KING: Does it help you, Janet, to get a personal thing off like that, that you can sing about it? Sing about a personal pain, does that help?
J. JACKSON: Very, cathartic, very. Yes, for sure. It really does. You know, as a kid, I never kept a diary, a journal. I tried, and I saw other kids -- when I did go to regular, normal school -- do this, and I tried so hard for years, even as an adult. And then I came to realize that my albums are my journals.
KING: Yes. So you speak -- whatever you're seeing and writing about is happening to you.
J. JACKSON: That's what I'm going through at the moment of my life, yes.
KING: Do you -- what is life like now on the social basis? You -- you dating now? I mean, are you out? It's very hard to have a relationship when you're doing a tour like this, isn't it?
J. JACKSON: Yes. We were talking about that -- just, was it yesterday or the day before? But, yes I do. I'm having a great old time.
KING: I mean, are you dating? Are you going out? I mean, if you meet a guy now you're in Vancouver. You meet another guy, you're in Chicago.
J. JACKSON: And what's wrong with that?
KING: Oh, nothing. Does it mean many guys or one guy having to follow you around?
J. JACKSON: Oh, are you saying am I committed to one person at the moment?
KING: No, are you now active socially? Are you going out, are you seeing a lot of people?
J. JACKSON: Yes,.
KING: And after all this time with one person, are you enjoying that?
J. JACKSON: Yes.
KING: Because that's difficult, to get up off the floor.
KING: Not literally. Well, the dating game -- a lot of people don't like the dating game.
J. JACKSON: Well, see, you know what? This is my first time doing it and I'm loving it. It's great. It truly is. It's like you normally -- you experience this in your teenage years, and that's something that I never really did. I mean, don't get me wrong. I didn't just meet Rene one day and then we got married.
But I grew up a Jehovah's Witness, that's my mother's religion, still, and you're not supposed to think of dating unless you're ready to get married. So you can't do that unless you do that, so I -- I -- went out with James and then we got married, and I went out with Rene and then we got married. So those were the only two people I've ever really been with.
KING: So you have never really had dating experiences until now.
J. JACKSON: No, no, exactly. So that whole part of my life -- that's why I say I sometimes feel like a kid again, or a teenager, because I'm experiencing something that -- I feel like a late bloomer, that everyone else has done way long ago. But it's good. I'm enjoying myself.
KING: Do you think you intimidate men? I mean, not because of the way you look. You're a big star and it must be difficult for -- typically, a nice guy to come over and say: "Want to have dinner?"
J. JACKSON: My friends tell me that I do. They say because of being in the business, that I do intimidate guys. Well, that's what the song "All for You," it talks about that. I normally do the asking. A couple of times I've been asked.
KING: You normally ask people out?
KING: How do they react? It must be a nice offer.
J. JACKSON: So far it's been all good. I haven't had any rejections or anything.
KING: No rejections.
J. JACKSON: No rejections, so that's a good sign.
KING: I mean, the intimidation could come from the fact -- you are a Jackson. That's not your everyday name in this country.
J. JACKSON: Well, I guess not.
KING: I mean, you're aware that the Jackson -- your family is like -- you're larger than life in the American song and visual showplace.
J. JACKSON: You're really embarrassing me right now. Yes.
KING: OK, I'm only speaking the truth.
J. JACKSON: Well, yes, I suppose so. Yes. Of course there is intimidation with that. I'm sure. I'm sure there is. Having six brothers, I'm sure that's intimidating to someone as well, and being the baby girl.
KING: You no longer practice that religion, though?
J. JACKSON: No, I don't.
KING: We'll be right...
J. JACKSON: Oh, I'm sorry.
KING: Jehovah's Witness -- you're not a Jehovah's Witness.
J. JACKSON: No, no, my mother was really cool. When we turned 18 we were able to explore other religions and do whatever we wanted -- if we wanted to stay with the truth, or some became Muslims, some Catholics, some are still with the religion. And I do believe in God, but I believe in a one-on-one relationship, and that's where I feel comfortable.
KING: So you're not in any organized religion.
J. JACKSON: No.
KING: Janet Jackson, her "All For You" tour kicks off Thursday night in Vancouver. The album is No. 1, lots more to talk about. We'll take your calls as well. She's on-site in Vancouver and we'll be right back.
JACKSON (singing)
MICHAEL JACKSON, SINGER: I forgot. This is our little sister, Janet Jackson.
J. JACKSON: That's right! I'm Janet Jackson, and nothing goes until I say "go."
M. JACKSON: OK.
J. JACKSON: OK? Go.
(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)
KING: Boy, that was something. You were cute, Janet. That was cute.
J. JACKSON: I tell you that -- you Larry, you really know how to embarrass a girl. That is for sure.
KING: Come on! It was adorable. You could have done a duo with Marie Osmond and gone on tour. The little girls with brothers.
By the way, on this tour, the Boys and Girls Clubs of America -- one of the great charities, benefits a portion of the proceeds of every ticket, goes to support the club's education, leadership, arts programs. We salute you for that.
J. JACKSON: Thank you.
KING: A great outfit. How is -- do you how -- do you keep in touch with Michael and how is he doing?
J. JACKSON: He is doing very well. It has been what, maybe a month or so, since we have spoken, the last time we spoke. He is doing very well. He is getting ready for his album coming out soon around September or so, I think. It is special.
KING: Have you met his two kids?
J. JACKSON: Of course.
KING: Are you a good aunt?
J. JACKSON: Well -- I think that is a question that you should ask my nieces and nephews, I try to be.
KING: For example, I thought people tell me that Michael Jackson is a great father.
J. JACKSON: He is wonderful. Wonderful father. All my brothers are really good with their children and my sister.
KING: Is Michael happy about your career?
J. JACKSON: Yeah, he -- expresses all the time, how proud he is of me. He's always giving me advice, slow down, look back, and enjoy, and, don't work too hard and, if this tour becomes too difficult for you, take your rest, take time your off. It's one of the last things he actually said to me.
KING: Your family has been through an awful lot. How close are things now?
J. JACKSON: What do you mean, how close are things?
KING: I mean, are you close siblings? Are all of you in touch with each other? Is the Jackson family a close family?
J. JACKSON: You know, I still wish that we were a lot closer than what we truly are. The most important thing is that we are there for one another if we need each other. We stay out of each other business. We have always been like that. And we won't interfere or, you know, just come in between anything unless the other asks for us to you know intervene, but we have always been that way.
I think the most important thing is that we are there and we know that we love each other and we are there for each other. That is what families about.
KING: We have a CNN.Com question asked by one of the people who clicked in: "Any plans to work with Brother Michael again or with any of the other boys, siblings?"
J. JACKSON: You know, we have never talked about it, since Mike and I did "Scream" we haven't spoken about it. He did want me to do his special, I think in September it is, and unfortunately I can't. He actually called me a little too late and I have a show that night. So, I will be there with him in spirit, though.
KING: Would you do an album together? J. JACKSON: I don't think so.
KING: Why not?
J. JACKSON: I think -- I can't speak for him -- but I think it would be a little too much. I love the fact that we did "Scream," it was very special to me, and -- sometimes I think less is more. So I'd rather keep it that way.
KING: Our guest, Janet Jackson. The album "All For You" is No 1. The tour starts Thursday. We will be going to your phone calls as well. Don't go away.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So at this time to assist me in the next award, I would like you all to meet a beautiful, talented, charming young lady: My sister Janet Jackson.
KING: Back with Janet Jackson.
The last time you were with us, you told us how many nieces and nephews you have: I know it was over 20, right?
J. JACKSON: Yes, I think it -- 20 -- 25 or 26, now.
KING: Do you want children of your own?
J. JACKSON: You know, it is really funny. The last time I saw you, I said no, right?
KING: Right.
J. JACKSON: Now that I'm not married, it has definitely crossed my mind.
KING: You realize how weird that sounds. Now that you are not married, you would like to have children. Why? Why now?
J. JACKSON: Well, it definitely has crossed my mind. It's not anything that I'm -- I don't feel like my biological clock is ticking and I have to rush into anything, but I have thought about it. And, actually, I -- I had a talk with my sister one day, my sister LaToya, and she made me realize a few things, and maybe, some day, I will have a child. Maybe two. I don't know, we'll see.
KING: Because being an aunt, you know, is easy.
J. JACKSON: I'm sure it is, compared to having a child of your own.
KING: Don't you think, sometimes, you would make a good mother? I mean, you know...
KING: You don't think you would?
J. JACKSON: No. I don't. I really don't. That is -- that is one of my fears, actually, I don't think I would make a good mom.
J. JACKSON: I don't -- I don't know. I'm so afraid, because there are so many things I want to do in life still, and I would never want to abandon the child, and that is a really big fear. There are people that I have seen that I know and they stick the child with the nanny.
I think I mentioned this to you before -- and I never -- I never want to do that. And it is such a selfish thing. So I -- like, if I am to be a mother, I'm to be a mother, which will probably always be with me, but it is a fear of mine.
KING: Janet Jackson is our guest. We will start including your phone calls. Lots more to talk about. Her brilliant album. Talk about some of the music, how she selects the music she does.
Janet Jackson. We will be right back with more on LARRY KING LIVE. Don't go away.
KING: The extraordinarily talented Janet Jackson, her "All for You" tour, starts Thursday, and she's in Vancouver. That's where it kicks off.
We'll include some phone calls amidst the questions. Jefferson City, Missouri, hello.
CALLER: Hi.
CALLER: Ms. Jackson, you stay so physically and mentally attractive. What's your secret?
J. JACKSON: Oh, gosh, thank you. Well, I -- I've had days of (UNINTELLIGIBLE), and it's -- it's been up and down for me through my career, throughout my career. But I have a trainer that I work with. I have -- that's always with me, Tony Martinez, and we work out.
I've been pretty bad lately, but so many times a day -- I have so many hours out of the day. I have a nutritionist. I have a chef that travels with me as well. So I'm pretty fortunate in that way.
KING: You once had bulemia, anorexia, right? J. JACKSON: Who? Who me?
KING: Didn't you have those problems?
KING: Did you ever have a weight...
J. JACKSON: I'm not laughing at that. But no, I was -- did I ever have what?
KING: There were reports I guess -- I don't know where this -- my crack staff got this...
J. JACKSON: That I was bulemic?
KING: ... that you had bulemia and anorexia. Never true?
J. JACKSON: You have to stop reading those tabloid magazines, Larry. I told you about that.
KING: I don't read them, so...
J. JACKSON: No. I've always -- I've always had this thing where I've gained weight, and it's truly, honestly due to stress.
Most people when they stress, or a lot of people, I should say, they don't eat. Well, I'm just the opposite: I do eat and that comforts me, food. So I have yo-yoed in that way. And when -- when I'm really at -- in the gray, and not so black and white, my weight is what it is now. So it's a matter of working on those issues and keeping everything in place, I suppose.
KING: Have you ever had stress affect you like you ever have depression, you ever had -- really get you down?
J. JACKSON: Oh, yeah. Yeah.
KING: Yeah, you did?
J. JACKSON: Yeah. I had a -- yeah, definitely. I had a bout with depression a few years back.
KING: And how did you -- how did you lick it?
J. JACKSON: Family. Friends, most of all. And more so than anything, I -- he -- he remains anonymous, and I like to keep it that way, I met a cowboy. He's definitely a cowboy, and...
KING: A cowboy.
J. JACKSON: Yeah, I met this cowboy. It's really -- I know a lot of people think, oh, this is not a true story. I was -- I met this cowboy, and my friends introduced me to him. And it was -- it's funny how God brings people into your life. And right at the time when I needed help, he was there and truly understood me. And I -- I'm not -- I don't let people into my life so easily, and there was something about him as to where I opened up to him. And I'm so happy that I did, because he really changed my life a great deal as well as my friends.
KING: In other words, he helped you through the depression? He's not a doctor, he's not a psychiatrist. He's literally a cowboy?
J. JACKSON: Yes, he is. That has he -- he used to be an entertainer. He understands a great deal of my life, and he's gone through a lot himself. He's an older man, and such a wonderful friend. And he really helped me through that time in my life, and continues to. We still stay in touch.
KING: That's great.
J. JACKSON: Yeah.
KING: That's great. And you did it without drugs?
J. JACKSON: Yeah, drug-free. Yes.
KING: Wow. Detroit, Michigan for Janet Jackson, hello.
CALLER: Hi, Janet. My question to you is more on your acting. I'd like to know if you plan to do more movies or perhaps one day even do Broadway.
J. JACKSON: You know, that's always been a dream of mine, since I was a kid to do Broadway, because I -- when I did "Good Times," I used to go visit Michael when he was doing "The Wiz." And when we were on hiatus, I would go to plays and just watch "The Wiz" and Stephanie Mills.
And it's always been a dream of mine to do Broadway.
I definitely want to do more films in the future, and there are a couple of scripts that I've looked at. So it all depends on how -- if I extend the tour really.
KING: You like acting?
J. JACKSON: I love it. That's actually where I truly started before singing, before my recording contract. I was acting.
KING: What -- an AOL member wanted to know what you'd have chosen for a career if it weren't music.
J. JACKSON: You know, I wanted to go to school. After high school, I wanted to go to college and study business law. So...
KING: Business law?
J. JACKSON: Yeah -- yeah, I may have been the family attorney, something like that. I'd still like to go to school actually. KING: Is it -- is it tough being a diva? Is it tough when all the attention focuses on you, when you can't -- you go out of the hotel and there are paparazzi, and everywhere you go you're -- there's no privacy?
J. JACKSON: Privacy. No, there isn't any privacy, and that is very tough. And I think we're all entitled to it. I know we're in the public eye as entertainers, but we're entitled to our privacy just as much as the next person.
And I'm a very private person. It gets very difficult, though. It is -- it's truly hard.
KING: No way you can -- no way you can have a normal life?
J. JACKSON: I try. I definitely try. I go out with my friends. We hang out. And there are places entertainers can go and be amongst other entertainers, and people respect your privacy and they don't let the paparazzi or the media know that you're there, certain places you can shop.
But it's -- it's hard even at your own home. You've got photographers trying to, you know, on top of their cars trying to shoot over your -- your wall or your fence. It's tough.
KING: Well, for example, you're in a beautiful city, Vancouver.
KING: Some of the great shopping areas in Vancouver, you and some girlfriends can't go walking down the street and window shop, can you?
J. JACKSON: Well, we -- I haven't. I only went out once. One of the dancers, Eddy, it was his birthday, and so we went out to a restaurant, and that's all I've truly done since I've been here. It's been really all about the tour.
KING: How many dancers do you carry with you by the way?
J. JACKSON: Well, on stage there will be eight, but we have 10 because two are swings.
KING: Ah, backups.
KING: We'll be back with more of Janet Jackson. The "All for You" tour starts Thursday. The album is No. 1. More calls after this.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP, "NUTTY PROFESSOR II: THE KLUMPS")
J. JACKSON: Sherman, what's wrong? Sherman?
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR: (UNINTELLIGIBLE). J. JACKSON: Sherman, look at me. Who am I?
EDDIE MURPHY, ACTOR: Pretty lady.
J. JACKSON: Oh, honey.
MURPHY: Oh, that's nice.
J. JACKSON: It's going to be OK.
MURPHY: Nice.
J. JACKSON (singing)
KING: We're back with Janet Jackson. How did you like working with Eddie Murphy?
J. JACKSON: I loved it. It was so much fun. The crew was amazing. It was fun coming to work every day, and he was just a gem, and so funny with each and every character.
KING: Amazing, the way he does it.
J. JACKSON: Yes, it was the best time I ever had on a set.
KING: Casper, Wyoming for Janet Jackson of "All For You" fame. Hello.
CALLER: Hello, Larry. You're doing a great job.
KING: Thank you.
CALLER: And, Janet, this is not meant to embarrass you in any way. I've been a big fan of yours for a long time, and I have a lot of great respect for you because do you a lot of wonderful things that other singers in your position don't do. I just wanted to let you know that I purchased your CD before it came out, I special ordered it. And I was just -- I was rather shocked when I first got it because some of the undertones on it were a little strong, in terms of some of the language that I had found in it, compared to some of your other work. And just wondering why you felt like there was a need to possibly present that in some of the songs.
J. JACKSON: That's the space that I'm in, really. That's why.
Everything you hear on that album, it's within my heart and what I'm feeling. I've had people tell me that before, and I suppose it's getting a little stronger with each album, but that's the space that I'm in, in just expressing my feelings.
KING: One of the problems, though, when you do that, is it does kill radio airplay, right?
J. JACKSON: It can. Or you could be banned in certain countries, your album...
J. JACKSON: ... which has happened to me before. But I -- I'm not going to change that because that's me. That's a part of who I am.
KING: Chicago, hello.
CALLER: Hello, Janet?
KING: Go ahead, speak up.
CALLER: Hi. I just want to say that I'm a very big fan of yours. And I was wondering, who inspires you musically?
J. JACKSON: I grew up listening to all types of music. And my main inspiration is Brazilian jazz, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Sly and the Family Stone, aside from my brothers, my family. That's the music that I grew up on -- loving.
KING: Did you like Carlos Jobim?
J. JACKSON: Oh, my God, yes. Triste, Cesaria Evora, I love. I'm -- it's pretty eclectic. I mean, I listened to classical, because that's what my sister was into and we shared rooms as kids. And there was Carly Simon, there was Joni Mitchell. My brother Randy was into folk music, so it was a lot of different influences, really. And I think it really shows in my music. I still am a very big Aerosmith fan, and Zeppelin, I listened to, growing up.
KING: Diversified.
J. JACKSON: Very.
KING: What do you make of Eminem and the controversy surrounding him?
J. JACKSON: You know, it's really difficult to answer that for myself, because I don't know him, and I -- I don't like when artists bash one another. But obviously he has his reasons for doing what he does, and more power to him, really. I wish him all the best and I -- there are certain things I quite don't understand, but I would love to sit down maybe someday and have a conversation with him, and maybe understand his side a little bit more.
KING: Paul McCartney was here about 10 days ago and said he liked his work. J. JACKSON: Yes? And so what are you saying to me? Do I like his...
KING: Yes, do you like what you hear?
J. JACKSON: I think he's very talented. I think he's very clever, but there are certain things that I don't understand. There are certain things, like with the whole, you know, gay issues that I don't quite understand. And why is that? And then he says don't take it seriously, but then why do you say those things? It's -- I'm just as confused as the next person, really. Honestly, and I don't think it's truly that fair to comment on it until I were to sit down and really have a conversation and ask him questions myself.
KING: Fair enough. Janet Jackson's our guest. Back with more right after this. Don't go away.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP, "AMERICAN BANDSTAND")
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: First, a very fine singer. Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Janet Jackson.
KING: Janet Jackson on Dick Clark!
J. JACKSON: You are really going to have all my friends teasing me. I'm telling you.
KING: You look 11 years old there.
J. JACKSON: I think I was, what, maybe 16 or 15. Something like that.
KING: You were cute. Oklahoma, hello. Oh, I should hit the button. That would help hello. Oklahoma, hello.
CALLER: Janet, I would like to know how much of an influence your brother has had on you. And also, I'd like to know how you and your brother Michael handle all the bad publicity. And one more thing, can my son say hi to you? He is just biting his lips.
CALLER: He is 26.
KING: OK, it sounds like you are 26.
CALLER: No, I'm actually 47.
KING: All right, have him say hello, and then she will answer the question.
CALLER: Here.
KING: Are you there?
CALLER: Hi, how you doing, Janet?
J. JACKSON: Hi.
KING: Made your day, right, sir?
CALLER: Sorry?
KING: Made your day there in Poteau, Oklahoma, this will be the big thing at the 7-Eleven tomorrow.
CALLER: Let me give the phone back to her.
KING: We'll have her answer the question: Michael's effect on you and your reaction to the stories about the two of you. They seem to be in the newspapers every week.
J. JACKSON: You know, we always talk about having rhinoceros skin, and I like I said before, it really effects me when they talk about my family members, but not myself. And you grow tougher as the years go on. There are always stories and rumors, and you grow this layer, this rhinoceros skin, you get stronger as time goes on.
KING: Have you been protective of Michael?
J. JACKSON: I have always been protective of him and, you know, when we did the video in the song "Scream," that is what it really is about. I have always been the little sister and always will be, that has his back, and I'm there to back my brother up with whatever he decides to do.
KING: We'll be back with our remaining moments for Janet Jackson, whose "All for You" tour kicks off Thursday in Vancouver. She is going every right through the end of the year, including out of the United States, and her album is No. 1, over 607,000 sold in one week.
Don't go away. (COMMERCIAL BREAK)
KING: One more call for Janet. Lexington, Kentucky, hello.
CALLER: Hello, hi, Janet.
CALLER: How are you?
J. JACKSON: I'm very well, thanks.
Caller: Good. I was wanting to know, what is the process of becoming one of your dancers?
J. JACKSON: Oh, gosh. It is just really matter of auditioning, when auditions are being held, and -- certain things you look for when we are auditioning dancers. But, a lot of kids came down to the audition for this project, for the tour, the videos, and, it was a wonderful turnout.
KING: Your selection of music.
J. JACKSON: Yes?
KING: Does it -- do you have to love everything you do, or at times you will say, I'm not crazy about this, but I think they will like it?
J. JACKSON: No. I have to like it. It has to please me first. I do it for myself. And once I complete the album, then I hope everyone else likes it. Really. Yeah, but it is I -- it starts with pleasing myself because I can't set out and try to please everyone -- or else I will never complete an album.
KING: You have been working, performing so long since childhood. Sinatra told me once, he still gets a little nervous right before he goes out. Do you?
J. JACKSON: No. I did the very first tour with "Rhythm Nation" -- that very first show, and I have been fortunate enough that that hasn't happened to me. But, when you get close to the actual first performance, it is the most stressful point, because you are tweaking the show and still trying to work things out, and you always wish you had more time than what you have. But somehow in the end it all comes together.
KING: How is that arena in Vancouver, that General Motors setup? Is it nice?
J. JACKSON: Oh, it is wonderful. And everyone has been so sweet here. Everyone has been so kind. And everyone is really work hard to get the show ready, and, we can't wait.
KING: Exciting, huh? To go on tour again?
J. JACKSON: It will be fun. Fun for us. I hope -- I hope everyone enjoys it.
KING: It does take a lot -- by the way, does it ever happen: You are on stage, you forget what city you are in?
J. JACKSON: Yes. Oh, it is so embarrassing. I did that -- I can't remember what city I was in. But I called another city's name. And then said, uh, I mean -- on the "Rhythm Nation" tour, I was so embarrassed. Gosh, that does happen.
KING: Janet, thank you for a wonderful hour, much good luck.
J. JACKSON: Thank you very much.
KING: Thanks again for my braces, too, I love them.
J. JACKSON: Do you?
KING: For Halloween, yeah.
J. JACKSON: Oh, so that is when you wore them?
KING: Yeah, when else could I wear them?
J. JACKSON: You could wear them on your show whenever you feel like it, Larry.
KING: OK, I'll try it, we'll see what the audience thinks. OK, Janet, thank you.
Janet Jackson. Her "All For You" tour kicks off Thursday in Vancouver. We thank you very much for joining us on this edition of LARRY KING LIVE.
KING: Thanks very much for joining us on this edition of LARRY KING LIVE with Janet Jackson. See you tomorrow night. Stay tuned for more news around the clock on CNN, your most trusted name in news.

Q: Typeahead.js cannot read property 'length' of undefined So I have a page that I am working on that is using the example form Typeahead.js page. It works just fine when I use the json file in the example located here: http://twitter.github.io/typeahead.js/data/repos.json
However when I use my own JSON located here: http://www.irishcentral.com/templates/ta-articles.json I get an error "cannot read property 'length' of undefined". From what I have read that is because the JSON is invalid but I checked my JSON against two validators and they both say its valid. Thanks in advance!
<!DOCTYPE html>

    <title></title>

    <input class="example-irish typeahead" type="text" placeholder="" />

A: I think the path you specify at prefetch is wrong. Try replacing prefetch: '/templates/repos.json' with the following prefetch: '/templates/ta-articles.json'.

A: So I figured it out and the problem was in the JSON. The JSON did not have a tokens element in it so calling d.tokens made it throw an error. I changed it to a tag I had in the json "title" and it works just fine now!

This weekend is a big one for me. It is the last weekend for local pageants in Indiana within the Miss America system. So, this weekend, there will be four crowned who will go on to the Miss Indiana pageant in June. The winner of Miss Indiana goes on to Miss America. This weekend is a big one because I will compete for all four titles!
Even though it will be a busy and probably tiring weekend, I am getting very excited! I have been practicing for weeks, really all year, in order to win a title, so hopefully this weekend is the weekend!
But honestly, either way, I can just do the best that I can do and hope for the best. Overall, it's the experiences that I have gained and the people I have met who will and have forever changed my life. That is why I continue to compete.
For the talent portion, I changed mine back to singing. I am excited because I was going to dance and tumble, but then I decided to switch it up a little bit. It may seem a bit bold, but I would argue that I am a bit bold.
I am a college athlete participating in pageants, something that is sadly not very common. In high school, I played on the boys' varsity baseball team as a starter because I did not have a high school softball team.
These things may make me bold, and I am proud of that. I am proud to be bold because in turn I am confident in the person I am today. More importantly, I will continue to work to be the best person that I can be everyday and be confident knowing I am achieving that goal.
Both quotes encourage me to be strong, but maybe in a little bit different ways. I plan to continue to embrace the bold person that I am. I am this person because I am a student at Hanover College; I am a sister, cousin, niece, athlete and a Miss America contestant.
The list could go on. But my point in this post is to remind you to be proud of who you are. If you don't like what you see, take Michael Jackson's advice and start "with the man in the mirror." It is never too late to make a change. That is just one of the many things that the Miss America Organization has taught me.


Three years ago, Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection (BHTP) got the travel-insurance world talking with the launch of its AirCare flight-protection product. Now BHTP is back with something completely new.
Leading the way is ExactCare Extra, an innovative hybrid product. What's hybrid travel insurance? Well, in this case, it's travel insurance that combines the immediate fixed-benefit payments featured in AirCare with traditional travel-insurance coverage.
Which of course leads to: What in the world are fixed benefits, and why should I care? Fixed benefits are flat payments for travel inconveniences like lost luggage, cancelled flights, or missed connections. With ExactCare Extra, if your flight is delayed, you're paid $50 on the spot via electronic payment. If you lose your luggage, you're paid $500 after you submit your airline-issued claim check and a copy of a police report or airline lost-baggage report.
Submitting claims like these is easy with BHTP. You can snap pictures of required documents with your mobile phone and email them to BHTP, or submit them through the BHTP app. Even better, you can be reimbursed electronically while still on your trip. No other travel-insurance company will do that!
If you've had travel-insurance claims before, you'll find the BHTP claims process to be a major improvement. You'll need to enter your flights if you buy ExactCare Extra or AirCare, but once you do BHTP will be able to auto-file flight-related claims for you – sometimes before you even know there's an issue. Talk about pennies from heaven!
Also, if you enter payment information – a checking account, PayPal account, or debit card – BHTP can pay claims within a day (via electronic transfer to your checking account) or within a matter of minutes (with a deposit into a specified account via a debit card).
In addition to an expedited claims process, ExactCare Extra includes real-time flight tracking, the popular high-tech feature that was first introduced in 2014 with AirCare. BHTP will track your flights and immediately pay the claim when a delay or missed connection is confirmed covered.
ExactCare Extra is one of three new or substantially reworked products that form the core of the BHTP product lineup.
There's ExactCare Value, an affordable, full-featured product offering savvy travelers the core coverages they want most from travel insurance – medical, medical evacuation, trip cancellation and interruption, and luggage.
And finally, ExactCare, BHTP's most popular product, has now been made more hassle-free – particularly for families, with the addition of family-friendly pricing.
The combination of no-receipts-needed fixed benefits, instant claims payments, and rapid processing of even the most complex travel claims helps BHTP process and pay claims up to five times faster than industry averages, and help contribute to this amazing stat: 95 percent of people who have had a claim with BHTP would recommend the company to a friend.
And on top of all that, all BHTP customers have access to 24/7/365 global travel assistance and concierge services.
The bottom line with BHTP's new products: More comprehensive coverage, more options, and the tech-driven products and service that people have come to expect from Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection.
If you're looking for travel insurance and haven't yet checked out Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection, you owe it to yourself to give the company a try. BHTP's products are affordable, and the company's tech-savvy approach really does make travel (and travel insurance) easier.

PM's remarks raise doubts of curbs on campaigning
PM's remarks raise doubts of curbs ...
Junta set to lift ban on political activities as stage set for Feb 24 poll.
WE CAN NOW start counting down – with more confidence – to the national elections after the junta confirmed on Friday that the poll will definitely be held on February 24. The new law on MP elections also comes into effect today.
With the new legislation in effect, the ruling National Council for Peace and Order will have no choice but to lift the restrictions on political activities, which have been in place since the May 2014 military coup.
Nine key junta orders that restricted political activities will be lifted, the NCPO said at its meeting with political parties on Friday. These include the prohibition on political parties convening meetings or organising any political activities, as well as a ban on political gatherings of five or more people.
Campaigning can begin from January 2, once the Royal Decree on the general elections is issued.
However, it remains unclear if parties can campaign as freely as in the past. There has been speculation of possible conditions, particularly for major campaigning events, after Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha recently hinted at a "set framework" for campaigning.
"Election campaigning must be done within a set framework," General Prayut said last Thursday. "Permission must be sought on a case-by-case basis and for certain matters. We have to find a way to keep the country peaceful, or chaos will break out before we can achieve democracy."
Observers believe that if free election campaigning were allowed, then the junta leader and the pro-junta Phalang Pracharat Party would certainly become fodder for intense attacks from their political rivals.
Election candidates, meanwhile, have to be registered between January 14 and 18. For the first time, the Constitution requires that every political party contesting in the general elections submit a list of no more than three PM candidates to the Election Commission (EC).
It is at this stage that all eyes will be on General Prayut.
Phalang Pracharat is expected to nominate Prayut as its first PM candidate, though he has refused to speak about this possibility so far.
Apart from whether Prayut will be nominated for the candidacy, the other question is whether Phalang Pracharat will nominate two more candidates for the country's top job and who they will be. So far, it has been speculated that the second and third candidates could well be Deputy PM Somkid Jatusripitak, who heads the government's economic team, and Industry Minister Uttama Savanayana, who is also party leader, respectively.
Contrary to speculation that the pro-junta party will only nominate Prayut, a source from Phalang Pracharat said it would firmly stick to its original plan of nominating three PM candidates. "Up till now I have heard of no changes," the source added.
Pheu Thai Party, meanwhile, is expected to nominate Sudarat Keyuraphan, who chairs the party's election strategy committee, as its first PM candidate. It is yet to be seen who will be Pheu Thai's second and third PM candidates – and if any of the candidates will be a Shinawatra, considering the family has retained power in the party.
For Thai Raksa Chart Party, veteran politician Chaturon Chaisang is the top favourite for first PM candidate. This party also has connections with the Shinawatras.
The Democrat Party, meanwhile, is expected to nominate party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva as its first PM candidate.
Once voting is over, the EC has to announce at least 95 per cent of the results within 60 days, or by April 25. During the 60-day period, the agency has the power to disqualify winners suspected of getting elected using dishonest means or seek the dissolution of parties suspected of fraud.
At the bargaining table
At this time, a lot of negotiating, bargaining and manoeuvring can be expected as parties aspiring to form the next government get involved in the numbers game.
It is at this stage, even before the next Parliament convenes, that we will get a clear picture of who will take over as premier.
According to the Constitution, the new Parliament must convene within 15 days after the election result is announced, which means no later than May 9.
However, the charter has not set any deadline for the naming of a new prime minister. That will mainly depend on who the parties that have won seats in the 500-member House of Representatives will vote on among the nominated PM candidates.
If no accord is reached, the 250 NCPO-appointed senators will be allowed to get involved in the voting to select the next government head.
Clearly, a new round of the fight for political power is just around the corner.

PM's remarks


And sort out my posture.
Awhile back I was driving with my Vatti. He pointed out a beautiful fox close to the car, I was unimpressed because in London foxes poo on my doorstep and are half mad from fleas . I wonder what else city's take the beauty out of? People maybe?
Discuss the politics of "the gaze"; or put a bag over everyone's face and go have tea.
Welcome to exam season! With so much to do right now I've harvested this months drawings from old sketchbooks to save on time… Hope you'll forgive me!

A competition to find the most creative use of malt in home cooking competition was organised by the Suffolk East Federation of the Women's Institute, sponsored by Muntons, the Stowmarket based malt and malted ingredients manufacturer. At a presentation ceremony held at Muntons headquarters in Stowmarket the winners and runners up were presented with their prizes.
The winner was Rosemary Digby who collected the top prize, a cream, retro styled, SMEG food mixer. Her winning entry was a delicious rhubarb, coconut and malt cake, which in the opinion of the judges, was an exceptional cake with an incredible blend of complimentary flavours.
Polly Sinclair was awarded the runner's up prize for her very creative malt glazed beer-can chicken. She was awarded a hamper containing an assortment of malted ingredients, Muntons merchandise and finished products made with malt including chocolate, beer and whisky.
Second runner up was Olive Godbold who submitted a classic recipe for baked apples with malt-soaked fruit filling and a malt glaze in the creative malt competition. She was presented with a case containing a selection of Muntons ingredients merchandise and malted finished products.
The winning cake along with a booklet containing all 22 malt based recipes will be on sale at the WI stand at the Suffolk show.


Chicago-native Chancelor Bennett has been dominating the rap game. The world is next. More commonly known as Chance The Rapper, the 23-year-old released his third mixtape in the last five years, "Coloring Book," earlier this summer.
Chance's "Coloring Book" speaks at length about the artist's struggle with substance abuse, religion and parenthood, as well as a scathing critique of the music industry. Featuring hip-hop titans like Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Jay Electronica and Justin Bieber, "Coloring Book" was released on Friday, May 13, and eventually climbed to the No. 8 spot on the Billboard 200 — the first streaming-only LP to do so.
It would even be fair to say that Chance has embodied the spirit of a street Al Sharpton. With lines like, "I get my word from the sermon / I do not talk to the serpent / That's the holistic discernment" and "Exalt, Exalt, glorify / Descend upon the Earth with swords and fortify the borders where your shorties lie" from "All We Got" and "How Great," respectively, Chance lays praise to Jesus and God as only hip-hop can.
It was not until an intervention from his grandmother and a return to Chicago that Chance was able to turn his life around.
Chance The Rapper has made a name for himself in the musical world for refusing to sign to a record label. Courted by a myriad of labels, such as Sony and G.O.O.D. Music, Chance The Rapper continues to be the only truly independent major rapper in the world.
While most within the music industry argue that artists need record labels, this allows him autonomy to release his music for free online and not have to release singles leading up to his albums. His independence has allowed him to break down barriers and he was even able to have his stream-only album be considered for a Grammy Award.
Chance's point was further reinforced by Lil Wayne rapping, "I got problems bigger than these boys / Lord, free the Carter, n****s need the Carter / Sacrificin' everything, I feel like Jesus Carter / And if that label try to stop me / There gon' be some crazy Weezy fans waitin' in the lobby / Mula, baby," in reference to his own personal issues with Cash Money Records.
Chance attributes the birth of his daughter to a fair amount of his religious piety. The affection that he shows the females in his life has been noted as different from many artists of the same genre, which speaks to the level of respect he has for them.
Chance started his "Magnificent Coloring World Tour" this past month and will be touring through the end of the year. He is set to make some nearby festival stops along the way. Chance has been one provocative figure and has knocked down many of the barriers that have stood in front of him since his first mixtape was released nearly half a decade ago.

Роберт П. «Фуззи» Вандайвер (; 26 декабря 1903 года, Индианаполис, Индиана, США — 30 июля 1983 года, Франклин, Индиана, США) — американский баскетболист, известный по выступлениям на школьном и студенческом уровне в 1920-е годы. С 1975 года является членом Зала славы баскетбола.

Биография
В начале 1920-х Вандайвер учился в старшей школе Франклина в Индиане, был капитаном школьной баскетбольной команды, известной как «Чудесная пятёрка Франклина», которая трижды, с 1920 по 1922 годы, выигрывала чемпионат штата и потерпела за три года всего 9 поражений при 89 победах. Самого Фуззи, отличавшегося хорошим дальним броском и умением отдать хороший пас, три раза включали в символическую сборную штата среди школьников. Позже Джон Вуден, Оскар Робертсон и Джордж Макгиннис повторили это достижение.

После окончания школы Вандайвер учился во Франклин-Колледже с 1922 по 1926 годы. Выступая за университетскую баскетбольную команду, он четыре года подряд включался в символическую сборную штата среди студентов, а в 1926 году был включён в сборную Среднезападной конференции.

Из-за травмы спины, полученной в последнем студенческом сезоне, Фуззи в 22 года завершил карьеру игрока, после чего с 1926 по 1944 годы работал тренером баскетбольной старшей школы Франклина и в 1939 году вывел команду в финал чемпионата штата Индиана.

'Brilliant' Ivan Toney impresses his boss as Brentford beat Barnsley

Brentford boss Thomas Frank labelled Ivan Toney's display as "brilliant" after the striker's 11th goal of the season secured Brentford a 1-0 win at Barnsley.
Toney struck in the 66th minute to end the Bees' run of three successive Championship draws and moved them within two points of the play-off places.
"I like him," Bees boss Frank said about the former Newcastle striker.
"He is doing a good job for us and I think he had another strong performance, I must say.
"I think he was very strong in the duels and we know he's always in there in the box. That was a brilliant performance."
Victory for the Bees came against a Barnsley side that had won four of their last five games.
"It was a very good win and I was very pleased with the performance," Frank added.
"I think we looked very solid, structured and mature in more or less everything we did.
"I loved the patience in the first half because Barnsley are a very good side and I'm very impressed with them. I think they have made it unbelievably difficult for a lot of teams and they did that again today.
"They press with an extreme intensity and I think we managed that very well. We gave zero chances away.
"We need to score more set-piece goals and we looked dangerous today at set-pieces."
Barnsley head coach Valerien Ismael took heart from his side's display against a side that reached the play-off final last season.
But he felt his side were denied a penalty after Vitaly Janelt appeared to handle the ball inside the area.
"I am very happy about the performance," he said.
"I saw a strong Barnsley today against a strong Brentford. It was, like we expected, very strong opponents and we saw the quality from them.
"We did well in the game. In the end, we had to get the penalty and this is the most frustrating thing for this game. You have to accept this decision.
"We fight to the end and it's a good process for my team to see what you need to beat this opponent.
"This is the Championship and you have to adapt. It was a complete team and I am very delighted about the performance.
"Now we have to think about the next game on Saturday and show the same passion to get the points on Saturday.
"In our transition game it was not enough to beat Brentford. We are near but still a long way (to go)."
