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.

Consumers relatively upbeat in latest confidence index
Low interest rates and a stronger housing market are keeping consumers relatively buoyant. The ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index was unchanged at 123 in January, sitting around its best level in more than a year. Consumers were slightly less optimistic about their current position but are slightly more upbeat about the longer term, and more think it's a good time to buy a big-ticket item. "New Zealand consumers are feeling pretty alright about things at the moment - the labour market remains tight, interest rates are low and the housing market is lifting again," ANZ's chief economist Sharon Zollner said. She said the lift in the housing market was likely behind the rise in those thinking its a good time to buy a major household item, which in turn would support the retail sector.

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.

Nonprofit Receives Grant to Help Prevent Local Oil Production

Bolton reportedly writes Trump asked him to help pressure Ukraine in May meeting with Cipollone
Former National Security Adviser John Bolton has even more bombshells to offer in his upcoming book. Not long before President Trump's Senate impeachment trial was set to resume Friday, The New York Times reported that in Bolton's book, he alleges Trump in May 2019 directed him to help with a Ukraine pressure campaign. This would have been two months before Trump's infamous phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, during which he pushed for investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and his son. Bolton reportedly writes that during an Oval Office meeting also attended by Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, and White House counsel Pat Cipollone, Trump told him "to call Volodymyr Zelensky, who had recently won election as president of Ukraine, to ensure Mr. Zelensky would meet with Mr. Giuliani, who was planning a trip to Ukraine to discuss the investigations that the president sought."

Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel find creative ways to hear John Bolton's testimony
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is confident he has the votes to block any witnesses from testifying in President Trump's impeachment trial, "but here's the thing: 75 percent of Americans support calling witnesses in this trial," Stephen Colbert said on Thursday's Late Show. The would-be star witness is former National Security Adviser John Bolton, whose forthcoming book reportedly details a first-hand account of Trump saying he was withholding $400 million in Ukraine military aid to force investigations of Democratic rivals — "a shocking revelation of something we've all known for months," Colbert said. Still, if he did testify, nobody knows what Bolton would even say, Colbert noted, so he had him (or at least Dana Carvey in a fake mustache) on "via live satellite" to ask. Carvey's Bolton had a lot to say, very energetically. Yes, "Capt. Cover-up Mitch McConnell is hoping to have it all wrapped up by tomorrow," after having "done everything he can to kill this," Jimmy Kimmel said on Kimmel Live.…

Live at Paste Studio - Charly Bliss
In November, Eva Hendricks and her band Charly Bliss (made up of Eva's brother and keyboardist Sam, guitarist Spencer Fox and bassist Dan Shure) lit up the Paste Studio with that incredible live spirit and three songs from their 2019 sophomore album Young Enough. Singles from the record included "Capacity" and "Chatroom," but for this session (the second for Paste in the band's history), the foursome opted for some deeper cuts: "Camera," "Hurt Me" and "The Truth." "Camera" is a song Hendricks wrote while on hold with her bank after her credit card was stolen and used to "buy a camera in California," Hendricks discloses after performing the song. And whether the thief would've used the camera to create a "masterpiece" or make "something sick and twisted," we'll never know, as Hendricks sings in this slightly paired-down version of the track. Also during the session, Hendricks mentions some of the band's influences while making Young Enough, which range from Lorde and Taylor Swift to Superorganism. Young Enough…
Taylor Swift – “Only The Young”
Taylor Swift's new documentary Miss Americana arrives on Netflix tonight, after debuting at the Sundance Film Festival last week, and it comes along with a new song called "Only The Young."

"You did all that you could do/ The game was rigged, the ref got tricked/ The wrong ones think they’re right/ We were outnumbered — this time," she sings on it. In a Variety interview about her documentary, she talked about writing the song while she was disillusioned: I wrote it after the midterm elections, when there were so many young people who rallied for their candidate, whether it was a senator or congressman or congresswoman. It was hard to see so many people feel like they had canvassed and done everything and tried so hard. I saw a lot of young people’s hopes dashed. And I found that to be particularly tragic, because young people are the people who feel the worst effects of gun

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."

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…

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…

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.
