(4) Looking, the network's brand-spankin'-new comedy about three gay men in San Francisco, debuted to terrible ratings. |
Like, Enlightened levels of terrible. That's not necessarily bad news because HBO shows tend to grow their audiences over time, but Looking held onto only half of Girls' already small viewership. It's certainly not good news. |
Supplementing these four developments are some important pieces of news that we already knew: True Blood, HBO's summer staple, is also bowing out this year, and Treme and Eastbound and Down just wrapped up their multi-year runs in the fourth quarter of 2013. |
So, if I'm doing the math correctly, by the end of 2014, HBO will have said goodbye to EIGHT original series that appeared on its schedule at some point in 2013 (this includes Enlightened, which aired early in 2013, but does not include co-productions like Life's Too Short or Ja'mie: Private School Girl). If Looking fl... |
Even for a powerhouse like HBO, that's a lot of programming to shuttle off the schedule. Technically, with so many shows on the way out, HBO would only be left with Game of Thrones, True Detective, Girls, Looking, and Veep (and I guess Curb Your Enthusiasm, assuming Larry David wants to do more of it at some point in t... |
Now, bidding farewell to The Sopranos and Deadwood within a year is a much bigger challenge to overcome than losing The Newsroom and Boardwalk Empire, and HBO actually did struggle to find itself there for a bit in the mid-aughts. The loss of shows like Family Tree and Treme won't be THAT hard to overcome, because of a... |
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of these show departures is who's going with them. Unless something changes quickly, for the first time in a while, we'll be looking at an HBO without a show developed or run by someone affiliated with The Sopranos, Deadwood, The Wire, or Six Feet Under. People like David Chase, Davi... |
In their place, HBO has inked deals with folks who could be seen as the next class of high-profile showrunners/producers. Judd Apatow brought the initial name recognition to Girls, but Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner have made the show into something special. D.B. Weiss and David Benioff have pulled off quite a feat with ... |
Looking at the network's upcoming projects, The Leftovers is adapted from the book of the same name by Lost's Damon Lindelof. Togetherness is from the Duplass brothers. Just yesterday, the network ordered Utopia—an adaptation of a British series from David Fincher and Gone Girl novelist and screenwriter Gillian Flynn—t... |
A lot of HBO's series are moving out in 2014, many of them with recognizable names attached. The channel is better-equipped to keep things going than it was when The Sopranos left. Yet, the amount of competition is always increasing, with competitors like Netflix putting a whole lot of time and resources into projects ... |

SOMERSWORTH — Drew Francoeur didn’t know what was up with the Somersworth High School football team at halftime of Saturday’s Division V semifinals. The Hilltoppers were trailing by a point to a team they had beaten by four touchdowns in the regular season, and its playoff future was very much in doubt. |
Not to worry. The top-seeded Hilltoppers scored 21 unanswered points in the second half and cruised to a 27-10 win over No. 4 Stevens, advancing to a championship game for the first time since 2004. |
Somersworth (8-1) will host No. 3 Monadnock (7-2), which was a 14-6 upset winner over No. 2 Kearsarge (7-2) in Saturday’s other semifinal. Monadnock handed Somersworth its only loss of the season, 21-14 in overtime on Sept. 22. |
Stevens scored a touchdown with 59 seconds to go in the first half to lead 7-6 at halftime, then expanded the lead to 10-6 on a 35-yard field goal by Rocky Beliveau on its first possession of the second half. |
After a number of drives fizzled in the first half, the Hilltoppers finally got going on offense on its second possession of the second half. Francoeur engineered an 11-play, 77-yard drive which consisted of all running plays. Kurtis Michaud had five touches for 38 yards on the drive, which included a 1-yard plunge for... |
Michaud came up with a huge interception on the second play of Stevens’ next possession, returning it to the Cardinals’ 26. Five plays later, Francoeur ran it in from 2 yards out and kicked the extra point to put Somersworth up 20-10. |
Stevens’ defense did well to key in on Somersworth running back Josh Ream, who had 198 yards against the Cardinals when the teams met on Oct. 5, a 27-0 Somersworth win. While Ream was held to 51 yards on 16 carries and a touchdown on Saturday, he had an interception early in the fourth quarter and returned it to the St... |
With Stevens neutralizing Ream, Michaud picked up his game to the tune of 102 rushing yards on 20 touches. Francoeur was 3 for 9 passing for 42 yards and an interception late in the first half. Francoeur ran the ball 20 times for 82 yards. |
Seven plays after Ream’s INT, Francoeur scored his second touchdown of the afternoon, this time from 10 yards out, making it 27-10 with 6:44 to go in the game. |
Somersworth’s defense was outstanding in the first half, forcing the Cardinals to go three-and-out on their first four possessions. Stevens finally got its first first down with 2:23 to go in the first half, and that was on a penalty. Donald Pellerin got the Cardinals on the board with a 31-yard touchdown run late in t... |
The Hilltoppers scored on their second possession of the game. A punt into the wind gave Somersworth the ball at the Stevens 35, and Ream scored from 6 yards out two plays later for a 6-0 lead. The run was set up by a 30-yard pass from Francoeur to Darren Glore on the previous play. |
The biggest problem with the United States is the divisivness that has been happening recently, like this letter. |
We are all the people of the United States and we love our country! |
Some of us are Republicans, some Democrats and some Independents. Some of us are white, some black, some brown, some red (American Indians) and some yellow (Asian). Some of us are heterasexual, some homosexual and some others. Some of us are Catholic Christians, some Protestant Christians (all Christians), some Jewish,... |
According to our Constitution, we are all created equal. We are the people of the United States of America! |
To compare any of us to Nazi Germans is hateful and unacceptable! |
BOISE—Jennifer A. Gallagher, 32, of Margate, Florida, and Danielle M.

U.S. District Judge Edward J. Lodge also ordered Gallagher and Cook to ser... |
According to the plea agreements, Cook and Gallagher admitted that, between August 9th and 13th, 2014, they traveled to the District of Idaho to participate in a scheme to defraud financial institutions by cashing stolen checks. In particular, Cook and Gallagher admitted to obtaining stolen checks and driver’s licenses... |
The case was investigated by the FBI, the Ada County Sheriff’s Office, the Meridian Police Department, and the Boise Police Department. |

A police officer was injured after being stabbed allegedly by some Sikh youth protesting against removal of posters of Sikh militant leader late Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, killed during operation Bluestar. |
Sub-inspector Arun Kumar was critically wounded after he was attacked with a sharp edged weapon by some Sikh youth, police said, adding he has received several stitches and is admitted to GMC hospital with two other policemen. |
Some members of Sikh community representing a particular organisation had put up posters of Bhindranwale and some other militant leaders on Satwari-RS Pura road here ahead of a programme to pay tribute to him today, officials said. |
Station House Officer (SHO) of Satwari Police Station removed the poster, triggering protests from Sikh youths, who came on road and blocked traffic. |
The protests soon spread to other areas and clashes were reported between police and protesters. Three policemen were injured including the sub inspector. |
Protests are continuing as the agitators are demanding suspension of the SHO for removal of the posters. |
Deputy commissioner Jammu Simrandeep Singh and police officers have rushed to the spot and are trying to pacify the protesters. |
"Negotiations are being held between IGP Jammu and sikh youths in Gandhinagar Gurdawara. We hope to resolve the issue", the DC said. |
President-elect Donald Trump has lashed out at the former MI6 operative who prepared a dossier claiming Russia had explosive intelligence on him as a “failed spy” as Theresa May distanced the British government from the former agent. |
Mr Trump said Chris Steele, who spent two decades with the secret service, collaborated with his political rivals to concoct “phony allegations”. He dismissed the alleged conspirators as “sleazebag political operatives”, noting that Russia has denied collecting compromising information about him. |
Mr Steele’s status as a former UK spy threatened to cause a diplomatic row, with the Russian embassy in London suggesting he was still working on behalf of the British government to damage both Mr Trump and the Kremlin. |
The Prime Minister said in a press conference on Friday that the government had nothing to do with the so-called “dirty dossier”. |
“From everything you will have seen it is absolutely clear that the individual who produced this dossier has not worked for the UK government for years,” she said. |
David Corn of Mother Jones, the liberal news website, said the FBI asked Mr Steele how he had obtained the information, and requested that he forward future findings. |
Mr Steele told him he had been trusted by the FBI because, “my track record as a professional is second to none”. |
Mr Trump reacted furiously to the release of the documents, which contain lurid but unsubstantiated allegations about his conduct in a Moscow hotel room. |
He and his aides have repeatedly disparaged CNN for reporting that a synopsis of the dossier had been presented to him during an intelligence briefing last week before it was published in full on Monday by Buzzfeed News. |
Kellyanne Conway, a top Trump advisor, denied that the president-elect had been briefed on the matter, and Mr Trump himself called the reports “fake news”. |
Those claims were challenged by a subsequent CNN report on Thursday night which said James Comey, the FBI director, had discussed the dossier in a one-on-one meeting with Mr Trump last Friday. Other US media also reported that a meeting between Mr Trump and Mr Comey had taken place. |
Vice-president Joe Biden says he and President Barack Obama were both briefed on the matter because US intelligence were concerned it would soon become public. |
It was Mr Comey who announced less than two weeks before the election that the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server had been re-opened. |
Mrs Clinton’s aides have said that announcement essentially cost them the White House, and the department of justice has now said it will investigate whether Mr Comey had followed procedure in making it. |
With the new investigation resurrecting claims that the FBI essentially handed him the election, Mr Trump hit back on Twitter on Friday. |
“What are Hillary Clinton’s people complaining about with respect to the FBI?” Based on the information they had she should never have been allowed to run- guilty as hell,” he wrote. |
With ties between the incoming administration and the Kremlin now under heavy scrutiny, Mr Trump’s aides jumped into rapid response mode after the Washington Post claimed Michael Flynn, the retired general and soon-to-be national security adviser, had been in repeated contact with the Russian ambassador to Washington h... |
Sean Spicer, Mr Trump’s press secretary, said Mr Flynn had a single phone conversation with Sergei Kislyak, the ambassador, on December 28 to arrange a call between Mr Trump and Vladimir Putin. |
However it was later reported that there had been several phone calls between the two men on that date, one day before Mr Obama ordered 35 suspected Russian spies to leave the US. |
Mr Obama made another controversial foreign policy decision on Friday, easing sanctions on Sudan despite the country’s poor human rights record. The move was a reward for cooperation on counterterrorism and intelligence sharing. |
Mr Trump received some welcome news as the path was cleared for James Mattis, the retired Marine Corps general, to be confirmed as his defence secretary. Mr Mattis needs a waiver to take the civilian post because he retired from the military within the past seven years, but President Barack Obama said he would sign the... |
The confirmation process for Mr Mattis has been proceeding smoothly, though Rex Tillerson, the former ExxonMobil CEO nominated for secretary of state, has a more difficult path due in part to concerns over his links own with Russia. |
Mexico named Geronimo Gutierrez, the head of the North American Development Bank, as the new ambassador to the United States, the foreign ministry said in a statement on Friday. |
Gutierrez will replace Carlos Sada, who will take over the deputy minister post for North American relations, on Jan. 23, following the inauguration of U.S. President elect Donald Trump. |
His nomination is subject to ratification by the country's Senate. |
Gutierrez currently runs the development bank that was set up under the NAFTA trade deal Trump has threatened to tear up and he has held top posts in the foreign, economy and interior ministries during the last two decades. |
Profile: Who is Christopher Steele? |
Mr Steele, 52, has been a director of company Orbis Business Intelligence since it was founded in 2009 "by former British intelligence professionals". According to UK company records, Steele is one of two directors of Orbis, along with Christopher Burrows, 58. The Orbis offices are located in Grosvenor Gardens in Belgr... |
A Chinese factory has been doing a brisk business selling giant inflatable roosters, some as tall as 16 feet, based on a design widely perceived in China to resemble President-elect Donald Trump, AP's Paul Traynor reports. |
The original statue was designed by U.S.-based artist Casey Latiolais, whose website displays the rooster next to a similar design that borrows elements of a Trump election slogan. Chinese state media have described the rooster as "sporting the President-elect's signature hairdo and hand gestures." |
Wei Qing, owner of the factory in Jiaxing, said they have sold around 100 of the roosters, in sizes from 2 to 5 meters (7 to 16 feet) tall, to shopping centers in mainland China and Taiwan. Wei said some customers think the rooster resembles Trumpbut that the manufacturers had no say over that. |
Recap: What does the 'dirty dossier' claim? |
James Comey, the head of the FBI, has said that he did brief the president-elect on the so-called "dirty dossier." |
This completely contradicts Mr Trump's claim that he did not receive a briefing. |
According to CNN, far from keeping Mr Trump in the dark, it gave him a "one-on-one" briefing. |
Hillary Clinton is "guilty as hell," Mr Trump continues in this morning's Twitter binge, suggesting that the FBI had evidence of wrongdoing which would have prevented her from standing in the election. |
He appears to suggest the FBI chose not to release that information as they were being "very nice" to her. |
Just after 6am this morning, the president-elect fired off the following outraged tweets, which say the dossier was released by "intelligence." |
Mr Trump has previously suggested that the dossier was deliberately leaked to the press by US intelligence agencies in a bid to embarrass him. |
James Clapper, the US Director of National Intelligence, has strongly this. |
Special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation should "never have happened" as it was a "two-year waste of taxpayer time and dollars," and Democrats and members of the liberal media owe Americans an apology, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said Monday. |
Sanders also commented that she does not think Trump has "any problem" with releasing Mueller's full report. |
"He's more than happy for any of this stuff to come out, because he knows exactly what did and what didn't happen and now frankly the rest of America knows," Sanders said. |
Attorney General William Barr's statement on Mueller's report came because "they said they couldn't make a decision one way or the other," said Sanders. "The way the process works is then they leave that up to the attorney general...this wasn't based on just their own ideas and their own thinking. It was based on Muell... |
She also said she thinks the American people deserved better, after Guthrie asked her if she thought Mueller deserved better treatment from Trump. |
