user: Audra Ann McDonald (born July 3, 1970) is an American actress and singer. Primarily known for her work on the Broadway stage, she has won six Tony Awards, more performance wins than any other actor, and is the only person to win all four acting categories. She has performed in musicals, operas, and dramas such as A Moon for the Misbegotten, 110 in the Shade, Carousel, Ragtime, Master Class and Porgy and Bess. As a classical soprano, she has performed in staged operas with the Houston Grand Opera and the Los Angeles Opera and in concerts with symphony orchestras like the Berlin Philharmonic and New York Philharmonic.

McDonald played Billie Holiday on Broadway in the play Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill in a limited engagement that ended on August 10, 2014. After previews that began on March 25, 2014, the play opened at the Circle in the Square Theatre on April 13, 2014. Of the play, McDonald said in an interview:  It's about a woman trying to get through a concert performance, which I know something about, and she's doing it at a time when her liver was pickled and she was still doing heroin regularly...I might have been a little judgmental about Billie Holiday early on in my life, but what I've come to admire most about her - and what is fascinating in this show - is that there is never any self-pity. She's almost laughing at how horrible her life has been. I don't think she sees herself as a victim. And she feels an incredible connection to her music - she can't sing a song if she doesn't have some emotional connection to it, which I really understand.  McDonald won the Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Play for this role, making her the first person to earn six Tony Award wins for acting (not counting honorary awards) and the first person to win a Tony Award in all four acting categories. In her acceptance speech, "she thanked her parents for encouraging her to pursue her interests as a child." She also thanked the "strong and brave and courageous" African-American women who came before her, saying in part, "I am standing on Lena Horne's shoulders. I am standing on Maya Angelou's shoulders. I am standing on Diahann Carroll and Ruby Dee, and most of all, Billie Holiday. You deserved so much more than you were given when you were on this planet. This is for you, Billie."  This performance was filmed at Cafe Brasil in New Orleans and broadcast on HBO on March 12, 2016. McDonald received a 2016 Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie for her role in the broadcast.  McDonald had planned to make her West End debut as Holiday in Lady Day in June through September 2016, but after becoming pregnant she postponed these plans. She performed in Lady Day in June 2017 through September 9, 2017, at the Wyndham's Theatre in the West End.

(CNN) -- The Canadian government hopes to overturn a decision granting refugee status to a white South African who says he would face persecution at home, a spokesman for Canada's immigration minister said Friday. The Immigration and Refugee Board recently granted refugee status to Brandon Huntley, 31, a South African native who has been living illegally in Canada. The board decided to let him live and work legally in Canada after Huntley argued he had been the victim of racial violence and discrimination in South Africa. The board operates independently of the Canadian government. The ruling African National Congress in South Africa blasted the decision as racist and said it would "only serve to perpetuate racism."

user: Article: After you've chosen your online raffle platform, decide how you want to format your raffle process. Your ticketing options depend on the format and specifics of your raffle. For instance, if you are using social media, you may want the users to follow your account, like your post, reshare your post, and/or tag 1-5 friends in the comments. If using a website, you can either count each ticket toward any of the prizes or have separate tickets required for each of the prizes you offer.  For example, your ticket prices may be 30 tickets for $10 or 100 tickets for $25. Most online raffle sites also allow you to sell printed tickets in addition to online tickets. You can pick 1 prize or several, depending on your overall raffle goals. Pick a prize that you would like to offer your donors, and include a picture of it with your post. It's also helpful to write a brief description to entice donors to participate. For example, you can award gift certificates, sports memorabilia, and electronic devices. Choose a date and time to stop selling tickets and to do your raffle drawing. You can continue your raffle as long as you'd like. Typical timeframes include 1-2 weeks for social media raffles or 1-2 months for online raffles. The larger your time frame, the more donations or shares you can accumulate. As you plan your raffle or post, provide donors/users with the information they need to know about your raffle, such as what you are raffling, why you are having the raffle, and personal information about you. List information to help inspire them to donate to your cause or organization.  For example, if you are raising money for breast cancer, write something like, “After my mother passed away from breast cancer in 2015, I’ve been committed to helping as many families as I can. By purchasing raffle tickets, your donations ensure we can continue to offer help. We are hosting a raffle for a Pittsburgh Steelers signed jersey to help generate donations, and each ticket costs $3.” If you are hosting a giveaway for artwork on your Instagram page, write something like, “I am an artist living in Portland, OR looking to give back to my followers. By sharing and liking this post, you are entered to win an original 8x10 painting. Comment with a number between 1-500 for a chance to win.” If you’d like, list your fundraising goal. For instance, if you want to raise $10,000 for a personal operation, list that on your raffle website. If you want to gain 500 followers, write that in your Facebook post. After you finish completing your post or entering in all required information for your website, you're ready to publish it. This makes your raffle live, and users can start donating their money or sharing your post. Before you publish your post, make sure all of your information is correct and error-free.

By Associated Press Reporter PUBLISHED: 16:00 EST, 21 October 2013 | UPDATED: 16:09 EST, 21 October 2013 An FBI agent told a jury Monday about the 2008 arrest of Bernard Madoff as the government began presenting evidence to try to prove that five of his former employees helped him carry out his multibillion-dollar fraud. Agent Theodore Cacioppi said he was watching television at home on the evening of Dec. 10, 2008, when a supervisor contacted him saying Madoff 'might be running the biggest Ponzi scheme in history.' He said he and three other agents went to Madoff's Manhattan apartment the next morning and interviewed him for an hour before arresting him. Madoff, 75, is serving a 150-year prison sentence after pleading guilty in 2009 to fraud charges.

user: Coming off their road win over the Bears, the Giants flew to Lincoln Financial Field for a Week 14 NFC East rematch with the Philadelphia Eagles.  In the first quarter, New York trailed early as Eagles QB Donovan McNabb completed an 18-yard TD pass to RB Brian Westbrook for the only score of the period.  In the second quarter, the Giants started to draw close as kicker Lawrence Tynes managed to get a 19-yard and a 23-yard field goal. In the third quarter, Philadelphia responded with kicker David Akers getting a 29-yard field goal. Afterwards, New York took the lead with QB Eli Manning completing a 20-yard TD pass to WR Plaxico Burress, along with Tynes kicking a 23-yard field goal. In the fourth quarter, the Eagles tried to come back as Akers nailed a 39-yard field goal. In the final seconds, Philadelphia had a chance to tie the game and force overtime. Fortunately for the Giants, Akers missed a 57-yard field goal off the right upright with 1 second left to preserve the victory and the season-sweep. This also marked the first time since their Super Bowl XXXV appearance of 2000 that New York had won 6-straight road games.

Reverend Wayne Dulson has outraged neighbours after having bodies exhumed to make way for his new family home next to Loughton Baptist Church. A vicar has outraged neighbours after having bodies exhumed to make way for his new family home next to the church. Residents, including children, watched as bones from resting places pre-dating 1860 were dug up and transferred to coffins before being taken away. They say they are disgusted at the Reverend Wayne Dulson and Loughton Baptist Church’s lack of sensitivity over the matter and claim the move is motivated by money. The locals claim a perfectly good four-bedroom manse not far from the Essex church was sold last year for £630,000 to fund the project and the new one could be worth over £1million when complete. Underwriter Colin Hart, 50, whose family home backs on to the church, said: ‘I’m disgusted that a supposed man of the cloth should go round digging up bodies from their final place of rest. Local people have entrusted their loved ones to this church and this is how they behave.’ His wife, Julie, 48, added: ‘Whatever happened to rest in peace? We woke up to the sound of a JCB out the back and you could see them loading coffins from the back garden.’ Mother-of-four Simone Cohen, 52, said: ‘What I found most upsetting was that when they transferred the bones into coffins, the children could see everything.’ The row began after the church was given permission to develop the site. Epping Forest Council approved an extension for a playgroup at the church but turned down plans for the house because it was not in keeping with the area. This, however, was overturned on appeal to the planning inspectorate. Residents, including children, watched as bones from resting places pre-dating 1860 were dug up and transferred into coffins before being taken away. Neighbours were woken at 5am in October 2013 by the sound of workmen and a JCB which spent two weeks removing 25 bodies, including women buried with children, to make way for the nursery. An exhumation licence had been granted by the Ministry of Justice and the project was completed in spring. Work began on the house but it was suspended after more bodies were found and another licence sought. Mr Dulson, a married father, has declined to comment on the matter. But the church said in a statement it was investing £550,000 to ‘serve the community’ and was ‘saddened by any offence’ it had caused. It added: ‘We have worked with the Ministry of Justice and the local environmental health officer and followed their guidelines to the letter.’

user: Article: A good date takes you at your word. They don't push you to do things you don't want to do. Watch out for people who insist, who whine, or who relentlessly tease you when you go against them. If your date puts you down, even as a joke, they may be trying to manipulate you. If you are being disregarded, condescended to, or otherwise not treated as an equal, end the date and get out safely.  Someone who flatters and pampers you might also be trying to manipulate you. If it feels like the praise comes only when you comply with their wishes, and dries up when you speak up for yourself, distrust them. This is not to say that anyone who treats you well is safe. People you trust can be perpetrators of sexual assault. If you are going slowly and your date keeps upping the game, put the brakes on. Someone who doesn't respect your pace is someone who doesn't care about your safety. " If your date asks you to do something you don't want to do, say no calmly and clearly. Say only what is true, and don't offer extra details. It's not your job to make them feel better. It's important that they hear that you are not afraid to say "no." You might say, "I'm going to go home now." If they press, just say that you're sure, and that you're not interested in being convinced otherwise. If you are on a date with someone who keeps asking for something after you have said no, set a boundary with them. Explain what you need and what will happen if they ignore your need.  You might say, "I already told you I don't want another drink. You are welcome to keep drinking, but if you keep trying to get me to drink what you ordered I will leave." If your date ignores your boundary, stick to the consequence you set.
