Pat Mills is a movie director who's directed his share of made-for-TV Christmas movies. I've directed two made-for-TV Christmas movies — "The Christmas Setup," starring Fran Drescher, which I did in 2020 for Discovery Plus, and "Designing Christmas," starring HGTV host Hilary Farr, which I shot this past spring for Lifetime. When I was offered the first movie, I admittedly I hadn't watched a lot of the Hallmark or Lifetime holiday movies. Here are a few things most people don't realize about how we fake that Christmas feeling when we shoot in the warmer months. Fake snow can be a huge drag on the budget of a made-for-TV movie.

The police chief of Moscow, Idaho, on Wednesday defended his department's handling of the investigation into the killings of four university students and pushed back at the notion families are being "left in the dark." A spokesman for the Idaho State Police said a family liaison had been assigned since the beginning, "with each family wanting different levels of contact." Officers investigate a homicide at an apartment complex south of the University of Idaho campus on Nov. 13. The Goncalves family has been vocal about what they perceive as poor communication during the investigation. The spokesperson, Robbie Johnson, said the email was an example of a message aimed at keeping the Goncalves family informed.

The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol held a series of nine public hearings over the summer and fall and a final public meeting on Monday. The hearings aim to show that former President Donald Trump set the stage for his supporters’ riot by making baseless allegations of election fraud and trying to pressure federal and state officials to stop President Biden’s win. Mr. Trump has said he did nothing wrong and continues to make his unsubstantiated claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him.

WASHINGTON—The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol is expected to vote Monday on potential criminal referrals to the Justice Department for former President Donald Trump and some of his allies, related to an attempt to overturn the 2020 election results.

☆ Anti-LGBTQ hate thrives online, spurs fears of more violence
  + stars: | 2022-12-18 | by ( Associated Press | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +6 min
On Twitter, YouTube and Facebook, researchers and LGBTQ advocates have tracked an increase in hate speech and threats of violence directed at LGBTQ people, groups and events, with much of it directed at transgender people. “A lot of that is happening online, and online threats are turning into threats of real violence offline.”Hospitals in Boston, Pittsburgh, Phoenix, Washington, D.C., and other cities have received bomb threats and other harassing messages after misleading claims spread online about transgender care programs. There’s no simple explanation for the increase in hate speech documented by researchers recent years. Online hate speech has been linked to offline violence in the past, and many of the perpetrators of recent mass shootings were later found to be immersed in online worlds of bigotry and conspiracy theories. Despite rules prohibiting hate speech or violent threats, platforms such as Facebook and YouTube have struggled to identify and remove such content.

Anna Sorokin, or Anna Delvey, as she was known as in her scamming days, is different from the character on "Inventing Anna." At the time, I had watched only the first half of "Inventing Anna" — just bits and pieces here and there. When we got there, there was a whole glam team of makeup artists and hairstylists who got to work on Anna and Kenneth. Pop culture has the ability to make anyone into an entire brand, and Anna has pop culture's attention.

Its founder Sam Bankman-Fried has mounted a media tour apparently from the Bahamas, where he's said to still live. US prosecutors have powerful tools to charge and summon defendants living overseas, experts said. If the US government ultimately succeeds in bringing criminal charges against him, prosecutors have legal tools to extradite him to the US, legal experts told Insider. The US would file its extradition application through the Justice Department's Office of International Affairs, which oversees those requests. In this case, it's not likely that a potential securities fraud case would allow another nation to put terms on its extradition.
