Input: Consider Input: After four years of taunting and torturing fellow Republicans , Ted Cruz is shedding his just-say-no persona in the Senate for a new identity : Team player . 
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell -- a man Cruz once derided as a liar and an ally of Democrats -- is counting on the Texan to help navigate an Obamacare repeal bill through the Senate with virtually no margin for error . 
As a trusted voice of the conservative wing of the GOP and conduit to the House Freedom Caucus , Cruz is fast emerging as a pivotal player in the Republican bid to do away with the landmark Democratic health care law . 
But after receiving so much blowback for that and many other episodes , there 's nary a Cruz critic in the Senate Republican Conference nowadays . 
Cruz 's work on health care has been uncharacteristically low profile so far . 
It began with a private dinner in mid-February at the upscale D.C. steakhouse Capital Grille with the more compromise-minded Alexander , who once chided Cruz for calling McConnell a liar on the Senate floor by noting that one thing "you learn in Kindergarten is to respect one another ." 
Alexander and Cruz agreed to assemble a group of GOP senators to prepare for the eventuality that the House would send them a health care bill riddled with flaws that could not pass the Senate as written . 
But when it comes to passing a new health care law , Republicans believe the inclusion of Cruz and his close ally , Sen. Mike Lee -LRB- R-Utah -RRB- , could pay critical dividends by building support among conservative groups and the House Freedom Caucus . 
"One of the challenges when the Obamacare bill was in the House , was that early on was that the different parts of the party were not talking to each other ," Cruz said in an interview in his office . 
Collaborative and inclusive are not typically words associated with Cruz . 
Now that President Barack Obama is out of office , Cruz said his mission in the Senate is no longer to be the "loyal opposition ." 
"Different circumstances call for different approaches ," said Cruz , who is gearing up to run for a second term next year in a closely watched race . 
Cruz 's leading role has shocked some of his colleagues . 
The group that Cruz helped develop is , in some ways , a substitute for the traditional committee process . 
"We have skin in the game ," Cruz said . 
Still , there 's concern among some more centrist senators that the end-product could appeal too much to Cruz and not enough to the dozen or so Republican senators who have grave concerns about slashing Medicaid and removing protections for preexisting conditions . 
Clearly he believes Lee and Cruz are crucial ; but some GOP sources said there are deep doubts among senators that Collins or Sen. Rand Paul -LRB- R-Ky . -RRB- 
Though GOP leaders believe by getting Cruz involved they are minimizing the possibility that Cruz will later demolish their repeal efforts , the Texas firebrand is n't on the same page about everything . 
Cruz wants to go as big as possible , and if Senate rules prohibit his idea , he believes Vice President Mike Pence should simply overrule the parliamentarian . 
"The parliamentarian merely advises , the vice president decides ," Cruz said . 
But on almost every other front , Republicans say , Cruz is being highly productive .

Input: Consider Input: Scott Brunton had just gone through a bad breakup when actor George Takei offered to take him out on the town . It was the summer of 1981   and Takei   then 44   was well - known for his role as Lt . Hikaru Sulu on Star Trek . The two men knew each other socially . “ It was a very hard breakup for me   and he said   ‘ Well   let me take you out to dinner and the theater and we will talk  ’" said Brunton   who was 23 at the time . “ And I thought   OK   that would be nice .” The two men — who hadn ’ t spent time together one - on - one before — spent the evening out before returning to Takei ’ s Los Angeles condo for a cocktail   Brunton said . Takei prepared a drink in the kitchen and brought it out to Brunton   who was in the living room . Brunton recalled that Takei served it in a Star Trek glass   which he found “ a bit cheesy .” “ I ’ m pouring my heart out on my sleeve to him ” talking about the breakup   Brunton said . “ He is very sympathetic . And then he asked if I would like another drink and I said   ‘ Sure .’” But by the second cocktail   Brunton said he felt like he was going to pass out . “ I was shaky  ” he told BuzzFeed News in an interview . “ I said   ‘ I have to lie down .’ He said   ‘ Come over here and sit .’” Brunton recalls sitting down on a yellow beanbag chair . He doesn ’ t know how much time passed   but the next thing he remembers is waking up   his pants down around his ankles   and Takei on top of him pushing his hand down his underwear    Brunton  said . “ He ’ s on top of me   trying with his hand down my underwear [ to ] pull my underwear down  ” said  Brunton  .  Brunton  said  he  then pushed Takei off and asked what he was doing .  He  said Takei told him he was trying to make him comfortable .  Brunton  said  he  told Takei  he  had to go home   though  he  was “ still a little bit out of it .” Takei told  him  that  he  was in no condition to drive    Brunton  said   and he agreed but told the older actor he was leaving anyway . " I got my pants up   composed myself   and I just couldn ’ t believe this whole thing happened  "  Brunton  told BuzzFeed News . " I went out to my car and I sat in it and that was that ." A representative for Takei denied multiple detailed requests for comment   saying the actor was traveling . After this story was published   Takei tweeted on Saturday morning   saying the events  Brunton  described " simply did not occur ." He also said he did not remember  Brunton  . " I want to assure you all that I am as shocked and bewildered at these claims as you must feel reading them  " Takei said . " The events he describes back in the 1980s simply did not occur   and I do not know why he has claimed them now . I have wracked my brain to ask if I remember Mr .  Brunton    and I cannot say I do ." Takei said he took the claims very seriously and wanted to provide a thoughtful response . " Right now it is a he said / he said situation   over alleged events nearly 40 years ago . But those that know me understand that non - consensual acts are so antithetical to my values and my practices   the very idea that someone would accuse me of this is quite personally painful  " Takei said . Five of Brunton ’ s friends independently told BuzzFeed News that they have heard  Brunton  tell the story at various times over the years . One of those friends   Jan Steward   told BuzzFeed News she recalled  Brunton  telling her the story at the dinner table roughly a decade ago . “ It was clearly very   very upsetting to him  ” she said .

Input: Consider Input: (Reuters) -  Britain’s Saga Plc (SAGAG.L)  said  it  expected  its  underlying pretax profit to grow by just 1-2 percent in the current year and fall five percent next year  sending  its  shares 20 percent lower.

 Saga shares  tumbled 20 percent to 144.1 pence by 0825 GMT  taking  them  to the bottom of the FTSE Midcap Index .FYMC.  They  were priced at 185 pence when the company listed in 2014.
 Saga  said  its  tour business would see one-off cost of about 2 million pounds ($2.7 million) hurt by Monarch going into administration.
 Saga  also said  it  had completed a review of  its  operating structure and would see about 10 million pounds of annualized savings next year.
 The company  said written profit for  its  retail broking business in the year ending Jan. 1 was expected to be ahead of a year earlier  but added that strong performance in motor insurance was partially offset by a challenging trading in home and travel insurance.
The drop in the pound since the Brexit vote has hit many British consumers’ spending power  but  Saga  said  its  travel segment is expected to perform strongly ahead of a year earlier.
 Saga  said in September that older Britons are still going on holiday despite a squeeze in incomes but some are opting for shorter or lower-star vacations.
