Trump is reportedly set to relax U.S. ban on land mines
President Trump will announce as early as Friday that he will undo restrictions on using or acquiring land mines enacted by former President Barack Obama in 2014, two U.S. officials tell Reuters. Obama had moved to stop all U.S. production and acquisition of anti-personnel mines, including to replace degraded stockpiles. The U.S. is not among the more than 160 signatories to the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty, but it adheres to many of its provisions and prohibits the use of anti-personnel mines outside of the Korean peninsula, Reuters says. "The resumption of the use of anti-personnel land mines and continued stockpiling and production of these indiscriminate weapons is militarily unnecessary and dangerous," said Daryl Kimball at the Arms Control Association. The U.S. hasn't used land mines since a single anti-personnel mine in Afghanistan in 2002, Kimball's group says, and the last time the U.S. military used mines in any significant way was in the 1991 Gulf War.

Trump acquittal near with Senate likely to deny witnesses today
The decision late Thursday by Senator Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, a Republican who had been considered a potential supporter of testimony, to vote against new evidence largely dashed Democrats hopes of prevailing.
Sen. Lamar Alexander's Democratic colleagues are 'disappointed' with his no-witnesses vote, see a silver lining
Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) announced Thursday night that he will vote against calling new witnesses in President Trump's impeachment trial, but he also said Trump's actions were "inappropriate." His decision means there will likely be at most 50 votes for witnesses, and since few people think Chief Justice John Roberts would break a tie, Trump's trial is expected to come to a swift end. Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) told CNN's Anderson Cooper he's "very disappointed" in Alexander's decision, though it appears the GOP senator "essentially said that the House case has been proven but it doesn't rise to the level of impeachment." Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) told CNN's Chris Cuomo that he's also "deeply disappointed" in Alexander's decision to allow "the first impeachment trial in history that has no witnesses at all, and it's hard to imagine that this is a fair trial under those circumstances." On the other hand, he said, it's "refreshing to hear somebody on the other side describe it as inappropriate." Democratic…

The Number Ones: Blondie’s “Heart Of Glass”
In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. *** Blondie – "Heart Of Glass" HIT #1: April 28, 1979 STAYED AT #1: 1 week It finally happened. Punk crossed over in America. It just had to become disco first. All through the mid-to-late '70s, the era of disco and soft rock, punk rock had been percolating in Manhattan clubs. But almost none of the acts that came out of that universe ever had much to do with the pop charts. Patti Smith was the outlier; she charted as high as #13 with 1978's "Because The Night," though she needed a Bruce Springsteen co-write to do it. The Ramones' biggest hit, 1977's "Rockaway Beach," only made it to #66. Television, the Heartbreakers, and Richard Hell never charted. The Talking Heads managed one top-10 single over the entire course of their career — "Burning Down The House," peaked at #9, a 9 — and it didn't arrive

Hardly a household name, truck manufacturer Navistar’s stock rose to sudden popularity Thursday, continuing into Friday’s pre-market trading. Shares surged as much as 57.7% Friday after Volkswagen’s trucking arm, Traton, made an unsolicited offer to buy the company for $US2.9 billion, or $US35 per share, Thursday.

The offer comes at a time when the broader trucking manufacturing industry is in a slump, with new orders in decline, The Wall Street Journal previously reported. In its most recent earnings, Navistar’s fourth quarter revenue declined versus the year prior. The stock started the year sliding downwards after it trailed…

Liverpool unveil Bob Paisley Statue at Anfield
Liverpool FC have unveiled a new statue of former manager Bob Paisley, located at Anfield. Paisley, Liverpool’s most successful ever manager, spent 50 years at the club as player, coach and manager, winning the league title in six of his nine seasons in charge. Three European Cups, three League Cups, a UEFA Cup and a UEFA Super Cup, plus six Charity Shields, meant 20 trophies in nine years between 1975 and 1983 – achievements that have never been matched by any manager in England. Before that, Bob played 277 games for the Reds, lifting the league title in 1947, before going on to coach as part of Bill Shankly’s legendary bootroom team. Finally, a statue has been unveiled at Anfield to commemorate the man many Reds call ‘Sir Bob.’

Billie Eilish Says Stop Impersonating Her Because It’s Not Safe And It’s Mean And It Makes Her Look Bad
In the past few days, Billie Eilish has reached some cultural tipping point where she's gone from being "extremely famous" to being "way too famous." On Sunday night, Eilish, who only just turned 18, became the only the second artist ever to sweep all four major Grammy categories in the same year. Soon afterwards, the news also came out that she'll be performing at the Oscars, even though she isn't actually up for any Oscars and the world hasn't heard her forthcoming James Bond theme yet. (Honestly, though, the "Bad Guy" video was robbed of a Best Short Film nomination.) And now attention-hungry psychopaths are out here trying to impersonate her, becoming viral video-bait. This has apparently been happening for a while now. Last year, videos of one fake Eilish ordering drive-thru and another fake Eilish causing a mob scene at a mall both racked up millions of views. Now, as USA Today reports, Eilish has gone on her Instagram story to call out the fake Eilishes, writing, "Please stop

Nonprofit Receives Grant to Help Prevent Local Oil Production

The Environmental Defense Center (EDC) has just received $10,000 in grant funding from the Fund for Santa Barbara to help confront this major threat.

Watch Martin Scorsese, Jonah Hill, & YBN Cordae’s Coca-Cola Energy Super Bowl Commercial
Are Super Bowl ads cinema? No, but that hasn't stopped Martin Scorsese from appearing in one. The legendary director stars alongside his fellow Hollywood elite Jonah Hill and newly minted rap star YBN Cordae in a new commercial for Coca-Cola Energy that will air during the big game this Sunday. Because corporations now share their Super Bowl spots ahead of time, it's viewable on YouTube now. As funny advertisements go, this one's pretty good. The premise: Marty's at a cartoonish party waiting for Hill to show up. Hill is at home feeling zonked. He considers flaking. He begins typing a message to Scorsese, leaving his buddy in limbo via suspense-laden iPhone ellipsis. The whole world watches to see whether Hill will stand Scorsese up — including Cordae, who pops in a couple times to egg Hill on because companies love to throw random collections of famous people together in their Super Bowl ads. (See: Coke rival Pepsi's ad from last year.) Only a few gulps of Coca-Cola energy — a new

Gallup: Credit Unions Feel The Love
The notion that credit unions (CUs) play country mouse to their more worldly banking cousins is beyond flawed, as a recent poll by the Gallup organization showed. Delving into customer sentiments across measures – including "helps me reach my financial goals" and "puts my financial well-being ahead of the interests of the bank" – Gallup found that credit unions are crushing it.

For those who capitalize on it, the advantage will come in handy as FIs shapeshift their way to greater customer-centricity. How CUs sustain their unique brand of customer loyalty is among the core insights from the latest

Trio’s return date & Klopp names “sensational” Gomez first-choice – Friday’s Liverpool FC News
Liverpool are enjoying a quiet deadline day, not running around after mid-tier strikers and planning for a weekend game against Southampton.

He didn’t start the season in the team, due to fitness and the form of Joel Matip, but Jurgen Klopp has said his inclusion was never in question. “Since he is a playing as a centre-half again – his natural position – together with Virg there is exceptional. He is a sensational footballer, which is good. “He has outstanding speed, which helps us a lot to keep our last line high; he is a really good challenger; good in one-on-one situations; football-wise, I said already, good. “The package is really nice. It was always clear in the moment he starts playing and can get rhythm again, everything will be fine – and that’s how it is.”

Trump's impeachment trial might not wrap up today after all
Thought President Trump's impeachment trial was hours away from wrapping up? Think again. The Senate on Friday morning seemed headed toward acquitting Trump as soon as this evening, but The Washington Post is now reporting the impeachment trial is looking like it might actually last into next week, possibly not ending until as late as next Wednesday. According to the Post, the Senate may "take up a new procedural resolution laying out rules for the trial's endgame — which could include time for closing arguments, private deliberations and public speeches by senators." If the trial ends up lasting until Wednesday, this would mean Trump would have not yet been acquitted by the time he delivers his State of the Union address, which is scheduled for Tuesday. It also means the trial wouldn't be over in time for Monday's Iowa caucuses, much to the chagrin of Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.). Politico's Jake Sherman is reporting the same, writing that the trial going…

An ode to Bollywood's yesteryear superstar Babita Kapoor
In a career of about five years, she featured in around 19 films, most of them being hits. No pretence of histrionics nor conforming to the teary stereotype of her predecessors and peers, Babita was plain glamour. Amidst voluptuous heroines, she cut a slim silhouette. Hugging churidar kurtas, happy hoops and go-go glasses became her logo. Bell-sleeves, jumpers, polka prints, ribbons, bows, pastel lip-colour… her teen experiments influenced campus fashion. “I was a flower pot, who was paid in lakhs,” Babita once admitted with candour. That’s why she’s a path-maker… When her marriage with Randhir Kapoor hit foggy weather, she bravely piloted out of it with her daughters. Divorce was never an option for her. Randhir and she may have stopped living together but never stopped caring for each other. With a five-decade old relationship behind them, they continue being friends. Babita sanely chose the middle path. That’s why she’s a path-finder. A Kapoor daughter could be the pride of a home, not of the marquee. Babita…

Minamino poised for first league start – Predicting the Liverpool lineup vs. Southampton
Jurgen Klopp should make at least one change as Liverpool take on Southampton, with the absence of Sadio Mane still the key area of focus. The Reds host Ralph Hasenhuttl’s vastly improved Saints on Saturday afternoon, in their last game before a much-needed winter break. There are signs of fatigue throughout Klopp’s squad having passed the midway point of the campaign, but that has so far not affected their form, with 23 wins from 24 in the Premier League. Making their 24 from 25 will be the objective at Anfield, and the numbers available to Klopp are increasing by the game as those recovering from injury slowly return. This gives the manager plenty of scope for change, though few should be expected this weekend.

On their website, Nike says Kipchoge "tested" a number of "prototype" trainers in competitions suggesting the shoes were not available on the wider market. Nike has been approached for comment.

Big Fizzle: MoviePass Passes Away
And so it all ends in disappointment, like the umpteenth installment of a Stallone or Schwarzenegger franchise. For MoviePass and its parent company, filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy earlier this week means that what promised to disrupt an industry that has been around for more than a century – the movie business, of course – has itself been disrupted, and had been since the service was shut down in September. The filing means the companies will be sold, and the funds distributed to creditors. Those creditors include a list of more than 12,000 subscribers, and as the math works out, each of them may get about $100 in liquidation – if they get paid at all. The final shuttering comes after at least some subscribers complained that their cards were still being charged, even when the MoviePass service had gone dormant. Turns out the movie ticket subscription business has relatively low barriers to entry. MoviePass launched in 2011, was famed for its $10 monthly subscription service that allowed

Danny Ings reveals ‘what if?’ scenario as Jurgen Klopp had plans for striker
Danny Ings has revealed Jurgen Klopp pushed for him to stay at Liverpool in 2018, opening up a ‘what if?’ scenario for the fit-again 16-goal striker. Ings endured a largely miserable spell on Merseyside following his switch from Burnley in 2015—a free transfer which was eventually deemed worth up to £8 million to Burnley. Two major knee injuries restricted him to just 25 appearances for the club, with eight of those coming in an initially promising run in the side before Klopp’s appointment. Klopp continually stressed his faith in a player stricken in the first training session he held at Melwood, with a 26-minute outing at West Brom on the final day of his first campaign at the club a gesture of his belief. But by the time he returned to full fitness after another layoff, the landscape of the squad had changed drastically: Roberto Firmino was first-choice striker, while Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah were immovable on the wings.

Watch Michael Stipe Tell Stephen Colbert About His Favorite Radiohead Song And The Time He Told Trump To Shut Up At A Patti Smith Concert
Michael Stipe recently released his first two solo singles, "Your Capricious Soul" and "Drive To The Ocean." The R.E.M. singer also has a new photo book called Our Interference Times: A Visual Record combining digital and analog imagery. He sat for an interview on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert last night to discuss all this and more. The subject of Donald Trump came up because he's been using R.E.M. songs at his rallies against the band's wishes. "It's a licensing problem and there's nothing we can do except respectfully request that they not use it," Stipe explained. This led to an anecdote about how Stipe once told Trump to shut up during a Patti Smith concert at Joe's Pub in NYC. There was also talk about how the climate change protest Extinction Rebellion inspired his return to music, the photo book's aim to exemplify the seemingly irreconcilable culture clash of our times, and Stipe's doctor's advice that he stop watching the news.
