You know this is a fun interview, not a meaning-of-life interview. I didn’t. Good warning. There’s a scene in “Margot at the Wedding” where you climb a really big tree. Were you scared? I just loved being up the tree, which I think is probably a metaphor for me because if I can sit up in the clouds I like to stay up there. Do you forget your keys? Wallets, keys, bags, coats....
In early December, Newsmax TV CEO Christopher Ruddy confidently told Newsweek that his channel may overtake Fox News in the coming months. In reality, Newsmax’s ratings have declined significantly following the election, and Fox News always remained far ahead of the right-wing channel in overall viewers. Newsmax peaked at an average 398,000 views during the week of November 16 to 22, according to data from Nielsen Media Research. During the 7 p....
California GOP Chairwoman Jessica Millan Patterson said in a statement the decision “speaks to the strength” of the candidates. The election has drawn several challengers, including talk show host Larry Elder, Businessman John Cox; reality television star and former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner; former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer; State Assembly Member Kevin Kiley; and former U.S. Congressman Doug Ose. “We are squarely focused on putting California back on track by recalling the worst governor in California history,” Patterson said in the statement, which was posted to Twitter....

Oregon fell to Oregon State, 41-38, in the game formerly known as The Civil War. Northwestern lost its first game of the season, 29-20, at Michigan State. Oregon and Northwestern dropped sharply in this week’s Newsweek top 20, but both remained in the rankings. Alabama crushed Auburn, 42-13, in the Iron Bowl and Notre Dame held off a pesky North Carolina squad. Alabama and Notre Dame stay firm at No....
The query struck a nerve. For the last year Ellison and Sun Microsystems honcho Scott McNealy have been predicting that NCs would eventually replace PCs. Computers, they argue, should be just an appendange to the Net. Not only should you be able to get your news, sports and cheesecake pictures from cyberspace, but your applications and information should be out there, too (properly protected, of course). That way, wherever you are, you can simply go to any one of these generic boxes and have everything at your fingertips....

The Ligue 1 club signed Neymar in a sensational €222 million move from Barcelona this month and much has been made of the fees involved in the deal, for both the player and his representatives. Neymar 9/2 to win Ballon d’Or in 2018 However, Neymar will earn even more money given his image rights are not included in his PSG contract, meaning Unai Emery’s side will have to pay extra should they wish to use them....
European football was left stunned when the Brazil star completed a move to Ligue 1 after PSG paid his €220 million release clause to shatter the record for the most expensive signing in history. Barca broke their own club record to bring in Ousmane Dembele as a replacement, paying an initial €105m fee to Borussia Dortmund that could reportedly rise to as much as €150m. Blaugrana 5/4 to win La Liga...
We are living in the Cristiano Era The Brazil star was shown a red card in Barca’s 2-0 defeat at Malaga and earned an additional two-match ban for sarcastically applauding an assistant referee on his way down the tunnel. Neymar served his automatic ban in Barca’s 3-2 win over Real Sociedad, but the club appealed against the additional punishment to the Spanish Football Federation before escalating the issue once that appeal was rejected....
The 28-year-old’s future has been up in the air for some time, with a return to Barcelona having been mooted before the financial effects of the coronavirus made it impossible for the Camp Nou club to pursue a deal for the former Blaugrana favourite. Speculation was curbed somewhat recently when Neymar claimed that he is now happy at his current club, while also admitting that he hopes an agreement can be found to keep fellow superstar Kylian Mbappe at the Parc des Princes....

NJ.com reported Johnson did not wear a hair cover for his now-short dreadlocks during Saturday’s loss to Clayton/Glassboro state qualifier Jaden Hinton. Video of Johnson having his hair cut before a match went viral in December, leading to widespread condemnation of referee Alan Maloney, who was accused of harboring racist motivations when he told Johnson he needed to cut his hair in order to compete. “I’m still not allowed to comment about (the hair-cutting incident),” Buena coach George Maxwell told NJ....
LFC’s 15 best signings of all time The Reds have had an opening offer of £57 million rebuffed for their priority target as the Bundesliga side once again affirmed the midfielder is not for sale. News of the development broke via Bild on Thursday night, but it is understood the bid was submitted days in advance of the 22-year-old reporting back for pre-season training. Jurgen Klopp had alluded to the proposal last week when he highlighted the need for patience in the transfer window and said “even if you cannot see it, you can imagine we’ve done a lot behind the scenes....

Masi created the first image below using several exposures captured on January 11, as the comet was approaching its perihelion—a term used to refer to the point in an astronomical object’s orbit at which it is closest to the sun. Comets are astronomical objects made up of frozen gases, dust and rock that orbit the sun....
In her weekly press conference Thursday morning, Pelosi smiled as she recalled her party’s GOP-gifted nickname, “Do Nothing Democrats.” The phrase has become popular in conservative circles that accuse Democrats of going after Trump at the expense of their basic legislative duties. But Majority Leader Mitch McConnell refuses to bring hundreds of bipartisan bills passed in the Democrat-held House to a vote on the Republican-held Senate floor, Pelosi reminded reporters on Thursday....
