Rosie O"Donnell Pens a Poem About Her Encounter With Ivanka Trump


Ivanka Trump gets candid about campaign journey

Rosie O"Donnell was so moved by her encounter with Ivanka Trump, she decided to make a piece of art out of it.

The comedienne, who has famously feuded withDonald Trump since 2006, came face-to-face with his daughter for the first time at the New York City restaurant Nobu on Wednesday night. Though she almost just got up and left,O"Donnell decided to talk to Ivankaand their conversation went surprisingly well.

At first, the 54-year-oldkept the encounter to a simple tweet, writing, "@IvankaTrump in a city of 8 million - we meet face 2 face - i thank u 4 listening - mother 2 mother - on this new years week - my best 2 u."

However, on Thursday night, O"Donnell went on to pen a poem titled "8 Million to One," opening up about their encounter and explaininghow she was "captivated" by Ivanka"s beauty and taken back by her kindnessthough she didn"t even realize who it was at first.

In the poem, O"Donnell explains she simply walked into the restaurant and saw a young couple sitting at a table in the corner, looking beautiful and in love. Later, her friend Dana revealed it was Ivanka. Though O"Donnell almost got up and left at that point, she decided to speak to the fashion designer.

She explained the encounter in her poem:"5 steps toward her table/introduced myself/she smiled genuinely/her husband was warm and gracious/i told her of my children/some truths about myself/my pain and shame/she was absurdly kind."

The poem continues,""i just wanted u to know"/i said in a shaky quiet voice/i then made my way down the large wooden stairway/into my waiting car."

She concluded,"i wrote a book once/about bashert/the concept of/meant to be/it has comforted me/on my darkest days/when my inner voices scream/u deserved it/as her father has/same as my own."

Meanwhile, Donald and O"Donnell"s decades-long feud began in 2006 when the co-host called him a "snake-oil salesman on Little House On The Prairie" on The View after he gavethen-Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner a second despite comingunder fire for allegations of drug use and illegal drinking.

Donald shot back saying,"Rosie is just disgusting...she"s fat, she"s a loser. She"s a farm animal pig. She"s a beast, ok. She"s just a loser. She"s no good."

The feud has continued ever since, proving to still be ignited as the republican candidate made reference of her in the presidential debate a few weeks ago.

Donaldtold the country,"Rosie O"DonnellI said very tough things to her and I think everybody would agree that she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her."

In return, O"Donnell called him an "orange a**s" and reminded everyone she"s #withher.

Campaign manager: Trump and I have "fabulous relationship"


Trump Campaign Manager Kellyanne Conway on VP Debate
Story highlights
  • Donald Trump enters the final month of the race down in the polls and at the center of controversy
  • His campaign manager told CNN Tuesday that the Republican nominee is listening to her

"He will make his own decisions and the campaign will continue in his own words," Kellyanne Conway told CNN"s Chris Cuomo on "New Day." "But he takes my counsel, other peoples" counsel very seriously. We have a fabulous relationship."

Conway, a veteran Republican pollster, joined Trump"s campaign in July after previously serving as an adviser to a super PAC supporting Ted Cruz"s presidential bid. She said she finds Trump to be a "generous" and "gracious" client and boss.

Trump enters the final month of the race down in the polls and at the center of controversy. After closing the gap with Hillary Clinton last month, Trump has lost ground with the Democratic nominee after a rocky first debate and public dispute with a former beauty pageant contestant.A new CNN/ORC poll conducted entirely after the debate showed Clinton leading Trump among likely voters nationwide, 47%-42%. Early last month, a CNN survey showed Trump with a two-point lead over Clinton.When asked Tuesday if she had admonished the candidate over his war of words with Alicia Machado, a past Miss Universe winner whom Trump had mocked for gaining weight, Conway said, "I think Donald Trump is the best when he sticks to the issues because the issue set is what favors him." Trump also faces renewed questions about his tax record, after The New York Times obtained records showing that he declared a $916 million loss in 1995, which could have enabled him to avoid paying federal income taxes for 18 years.

On Tuesday, Conway emphasized that Trump has not broken any tax laws. She said Trump was "great" before he suffered that loss, and has been ever since.

"He is the original art of the comeback," Conway said.

Carson Palmer in concussion protocol after Cards loss


Carson Palmer Highlights (Divisional Playoffs) | Packers vs. Cardinals | NFL

Carson Palmer exited early for the Cardinals following a hard hit he endured on a Rams sack in the fourth quarter in a 17-13 loss. He was evaluated for a concussion, per the team. Coach Bruce Arians told reporters after the game that Palmer is in concussion protocol.

Palmer was seen getting checked by Arizona"s trainers on the sideline following the quarterback takedown, and then went to the locker room for his apparent injury. Drew Stanton came on to replace the veteran quarterback.

Arians also stated that the team will be "very, very careful" in dealing with Palmer"s concussion, and said it will be tough for Palmer to play on a short week against the 49ers on Thursday night.

Before Palmer left the game, the Cardinals were clinging onto a 13-10 lead. After a Chase Keenum to Brian Quick touchdown with less than three minutes remaining to give the Rams the late advantage, Stanton was unable to lead the Cardinals to victory following two interceptions on his two drives in action. He ended up completing four of his 11 throws after coming off the bench.

Palmer was 23 of 36 through the air for 288 yards along with a touchdown toss and interception before the injury. Stanton, a 10-year veteran, threw four passes in mop-up duty two weeks ago for his only prior season action in Arizona"s blowout win against the Buccaneers.

It was a rough day for both NFC Championship participants, as both the Cardinals and Panthers fell to 1-3 on the season with each of their star quarterbacks getting knocked out of the game.

"Five Nights At Freddy"s Sister Location" Dev Not Planning Sequels But Says It Will Be Different


FNAF Sister Location: The Most Jump Scares & Screaming | FNAF Sisters Location Gameplay (FNAF 5)

Five Nights At Freddys Sister Location releases in a few weeks, so series creator Scott Cawthon has shed some light on sequel possibilities, features and more in various Steam community posts.

Among the new revelations, the most surprising fact is that, unlike its Five Nights At Freddys predecessors, Sister Location doesnt have any planned follow ups. That all depends, Cawthon told one inquisitive fan. Sister Location is different from the other games and is very story-driven. We"ll just have to wait and see how people respond. It was further confirmed that as of now however, there aren"t any plans for a sequel.

In that single quote, not only does Cawthon admit that the upcoming spinoff might be a standalone effort, but he also describes it as something new. This latter sentiment was elaborated on when Cawthon hinted that some of the franchises most beloved modes wouldnt work for this product. When probed about the possibility of a custom night feature, for example, Scott clarified that having a custom night wouldn"t really work with Sister Location [because] It"s a very different experience than the other games.

In previous Five Nights At Freddys titles, players could select custom night to make a level of their own difficulty setting. Typically this meant cranking all values to their highest levels and attempting to withstand the challenge. The fact that a staple like that doesnt work in Sister Location means that it must have a very different mechanical base. Could it be that there arent as many animatronics during each night or that defending against them isnt actually the goal this time?

Those kinds of details will be known when Five Nights At Freddys Sister Location releases on Oct. 7. Unlike past installments, Cawthon insists that this game will release on the right date as he continues to add little details that make the game better.

Until then, the rest of the Five Nights At Freddys series is available now on PC and mobile devices.

Will Scott Cawthon change his mind and make a Sister Location sequel? Will the spinoff really be that different? Tell us in the comments section!

Blue Jay: Mark Duplass on acting with Sarah Paulson | EW.com


Sarah Paulson Raps Salt-N-Pepa"s "Shoop"

Mark Duplass was intimidated the first time he met Emmy-winning actress Sarah Paulson. It didnt take long for the duo to connect and lay the foundation for Blue Jay, their upcoming two-hander. Some levity helped.

I was just shocked at the level of gleeful fart jokes that were coming out of her mouth, and I was like, Shes just a really sweet, normal girl, and I havent seen that person on camera yet, Duplass told EW. So I asked her to do it, and in between all seven of her Ryan Murphy shows, she found seven days for us to shoot. It was great, intensely collaborative. It was a very introspective process.

Blue Jay features Duplass and Paulson playing former high school sweethearts who serendipitously cross paths at a grocery store in their hometown, moving from a quick catch-up to spending hours together. Duplass acknowledges the movie doesnt explore new ground, but strove to give the story a new element.

When we went into this, we were very realistic that we could make a huge stinker. I was up all night worrying about the whole movie, to be honest with you, he said. Theres very little plot, and there wasnt a lot on the page. It was about trying to find the chemistry between me and Sarah Paulson.

My whole thing with making a movie like this is, youre trying to capture lightning in a bottle, he added. Youre trying to foster an environment where the first take probably sucks, second takes kind of getting on its feet, third take were feeling it out, and oh my G*d! it clicks in on that fourth take. Because its unrehearsed and youre looking for it, it has a spontaneity to it that Im always chasing.

Blue Jay is Mark and his brother Jay Duplass first of four movies with Netflix. Mark Duplass penned the screenplay, while Alex Lehmann makes his directorial debut and also served as cinematographer.

See the interview above and a trailer below. Blue Jay debuts in theaters on Friday, hits digital and VOD platforms on Tuesday, and Netflix shortly after that.

He says he"ll be joined by Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey and Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions.

Julian Assange warns WikiLeaks will make "significant disclosures ...


Wikileaks Hacked Hillary Campaign E-mails Confirm Extraterrestrial Intelligence?

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange promised "significant" disclosures on subjects including the U.S. election and Google in the coming weeks as the secret-spilling group marked its 10th anniversary on Tuesday.

Assange said WikiLeaks plans to start publishing new material starting this week, but wouldn"t specify the timing and subject and warned that the so called "October Surprise" may expose Google.

The war between Assange and the tech giant started in 2014 when he wrote about the company in his book titled, "When Google Met Wikileaks", according to Recode.

"Nobody wants to acknowledge that Google has grown big and bad," Assange wrote in the book.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (pictured in 2016) promised "significant" disclosures on subjects including the U.S. election and Google in the coming weeks as the secret-spilling group marked its 10th anniversary on Tuesda

Assange (pictured above on Tuesday) said WikiLeaks plans to start publishing new material starting this week

"But it has. Schmidt"s tenure as CEO saw Google integrate with the shadiest of U.S. power structures as it expanded into a geographically invasive megacorporation."

Assange became concerned about former Google CEO Eric Schmidt"s ties with the State Department in 2009 when Hillary Clinton was serving as secretary of state.

He has claimed that Schmidt, who is a chairman at the company, has worked with the Clintons for years, as Donald Trump accused Google of political bias saying that it suppresses negative news about Clinton.

Speaking by video link to an anniversary news conference in Berlin earlier this week, he said the leaks include "significant material" on war, arms, oil, internet giant Google, the U.S. election and mass surveillance.

WikiLeaks hopes "to be publishing every week for the next 10 weeks," Assange said.

Assange wrote in his 2014 book that "Schmidt"s (file above) tenure as CEO saw Google integrate with the shadiest of U.S. power structures as it expanded into a geographically invasive megacorporation"

The group, which released Democratic National Committee emails days before the party"s national convention earlier this year, wouldn"t say who or what campaign would be affected by the upcoming U.S. election leaks.

Assange said speculation that he or WikiLeaks intend to harm Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton is "false."

Asked whether he feels any personal affinity with Clinton"s Republican rival, Donald Trump, Assange replied: "I feel personal affinity really, I think, with all human beings."

"I certainly feel sorry for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump," he added. "These are two people that are tormented by their ambitions in different ways."

Assange claimed that Schmidt has worked with the Clintons for years, as Donald Trump accused Google (file) of political bias saying that it suppresses negative news about Clinton

Wikileaks came to prominence a decade ago by publishing classified documents that related to prisoners in the United States" Guantanamo Bay, NSA surveillance of world leaders and military operations in Afghanistan.

In addition, millions of diplomatic and military files were made public by Wikileaks from US soldier Chelsea Manning who is currently serving a 35-year prison term for leaking the information.

Sweden is seeking Assange"s extradition in a rape investigation.

He hasn"t left the Ecuadorean Embassy in London since 2012.

Assange denies the rape allegation and says he fears being extradited to the U.S. to face espionage charges if he leaves.
