An award-winning U.S. diplomat who was seen as a rising star at the State Department has issued a scathing resignation letter, accusing Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and the Donald Trump administration of undercutting the State Department and damaging America’s influence in the world. Elizabeth Shackelford, who most recently served as a political officer based in Nairobi for the U.S. mission to Somalia, wrote to Tillerson that she reluctantly had decided to quit because the administration had abandoned human rights as a priority and shown disdain for the State Department’s diplomatic work, according to her letter, obtained by Foreign Policy.

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson tore his ACL in practice Thursday. ["Horrific" headline does not appear to be verified by the news report - but, obviously, he was having a great rookie year and is now out for the season.]

These reporters are standing right next to each other, pretending they are going a remote broadcast. Skip to 1:11 and look at the backgroud. Same people same car. Haha! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dffL0TzI4zI

Last year, Megyn Kelly was doing very well for herself. Her nightly show on Fox News, The Kelly File, had briefly unseated The O’Reilly Factor at the top of the ratings, and she was slowly becoming more popular with both conservatives and liberals alike. But The Guardian writes that Kelly was not happy, so she went to NBC, where she was offered an $18 million a year contract to host a morning show. The Guardian writes that NBC most likely thought Kelly had a “rare crossover appeal: one part soccer mom to one part school principal.” But then her show was canceled two episodes before its finale, and the network seemed to have higher...

Took a peak to see what the attendance was at the game in San Fran. It was half full. Fox didn't show the national anthem, do not know if any Cowboys knelt for the anthem.

Even before Saturday’s huge slate of games had begun to commence, we knew college football Week 7 was offering something unique. It started Friday night when both Syracuse and Cal knocked off Clemson and Washington State, respectively. That’s the No. 2 and No. 7 teams in the nation saying goodbye to their undefeated records. And let’s be honest, nobody saw either of these upsets coming. Saturday was just as crazy. LSU upset Auburn. Boise State upset San Diego State. Arizona State put Washington down in a stunner almost as big as the Syracuse win over Clemson. Michigan, Miami, Oklahoma, USC...

Make-up, hair dye, and tattoos are some of the ways that people inject colour into their lives, but a woman from Canada may have taken it a step too far by getting an eye tattoo. In September, 24-year-old model Catt Gallinger had purple ink injected into the white of her eye. Now, she may have to pay a heavy price for her decision, after the eye tattoo gone wrong may soon leave her partially blind in one eye. She said in a Facebook post that her tattoo artist had used a needle of the wrong size and over-injected undiluted ink...

As Georgia’s demolition of Tennessee continued Saturday, the game kept feeling more like Clemson’s win at Miami in 2015. That was the game in which it became apparent Al Golden could not get the job done as Hurricanes coach, and Miami responded the following day by firing Golden. Tennessee did not respond Sunday by firing Jones—much to the chagrin of a vocal and growing segment of the fan base that has checked out on the football program’s current administration and awaits new leadership. The Volunteers, who are now effectively eliminated from the SEC East title race unless they can pull...

Then the team stood for the playing of the "Star Spangled Banner."
