The Mega Millions jackpot was a record-breaking .6 billion on oct. 23, and people across the country bought tickets in droves.Those behind the counter selling the lottery tickets say they heard it all from their customers.“If they win, they’ll buy us a new car or a new house,” said Francine Barela of promises she hears from customers at King Soopers in Denver, Colorado.Some people even promised to give a million dollars to the person who sold them the ticket.“You wonder are they really gonna come back? Are they gonna keep their word? But I don't really care whether they do,” Barela said. “Just be nice to know you sold the winning ticket!”Barela and co-worker Eva Bogue handle hundreds of tickets a day, but they rarely play themselves. That is until the jackpot is record-breaking.“The jackpots so big that you gotta take your chances with it,” Barela says.Would they keep their jobs?Bogue quickly replies, “No.” 940

The House ways and means committee began its work Monday on a massive tax overhaul, but the day quickly devolved into a partisan food fight, with Democrats claiming Republicans were rushing their bill in an effort to score political points.Just minutes into the hearing, Democrats tried to postpone the mark-up all together arguing that the parties had not had enough time to properly digest the 429-page bill?that was just introduced last week and hadn't been the focus of committee hearings."This bill needs some vetting," Rep. Lloyd Doggett, a Democrat from Texas, said. "In the President's words, it needs extreme vetting." 640

The Presidential Inaugural Committee, which consists of prominent Democrats helping to organize next month’s inauguration, are encouraging Americans to stay away from DC and watch the inauguration from home.The quadrennial inauguration of a president and vice president is typically attended by hundreds of thousands. The committee says in light of the pandemic, a large gathering should be avoided.While the committee said details will be released in the coming days, inauguration organizers said that the ceremony’s footprint will be extremely limited."Our goal is to create an inauguration that keeps people safe, honors the grand traditions of the Presidency, and showcases the Biden-Harris Administration’s renewed American vision for an inclusive, equitable, and unified citizenry,” said PIC CEO Tony Allen in a statement.While the organizers did not say the inauguration parade would be canceled, organizers said it would be “re-imagined.”Earlier this month, President-elect Joe Biden said he envisioned an inauguration akin to the virtual Democratic National Convention, which was held in August."First and foremost in my objective is to keep America safe but still allow people to celebrate," Biden said. "To celebrate and see one another celebrating."Other Inauguration Day events, such as the signing ceremony and luncheon the new president has with congressional leaders, are still unknown. As of now, the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies is unaware of any restrictions related to the pandemic. Those wishing to get a spot to view Biden’s inauguration can still request tickets to the event through their member of Congress.Another sign that the pomp and circumstance of this year’s inauguration will look different is this could be the first time in US history that a presidential inauguration fails to result in a smooth transfer of power. Outgoing President Donald Trump has continued to allege the election was stolen from him despite dozens of failed lawsuits and no formal prosecutions of widespread fraud.It has been a long-standing tradition that the incoming and outgoing president meet at the White House and travel to the Capitol together before the inauguration.On Monday, Biden issued his strongest condemnation of Trump’s refusal to concede the election."It is my sincere hope we never again see anyone subjected to the kind of threats and abuse we saw in this election. It's simply unconscionable. We owe these public servants a debt of gratitude. They didn't seek the spotlight, you know, and our democracy survived because of them,” Biden said. 2602

The Pac-12 has set Sept. 26 as the start of its 10-game conference-only football schedule. The Pac-12 announced three weeks ago it would eliminate nonconference games for its 12 member schools.. The new plan adds an additional cross-divisional game to each team’s slate and moves the conference championship game back two weeks to Dec. 18 or 19. That game was set to be played for the first time at the new NFL stadium in Las Vegas. It will now be hosted by the highest-seeded team.“From the onset of the COVID-19 crisis, we have been committed to prioritizing the health and safety of our student-athletes and all those connected to our athletic programs,” said Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott. “The schedule and plans approved today and path to return to competition are subject to public health orders and will be taken in accordance with the health and well-being guidelines developed by our Pac-12 Medical Advisory Committee. The schedule and return to play plans provide for maximum flexibility and the best opportunity to play all fall sports in an environment that prioritizes safety. At the same time, we will continue to evaluate the best available science, data and advice of public health officials as we make decisions and any required adjustments going forward.” 1284

The line of well-dressed celebrities waiting to chat with E! on the Oscars red carpet might be a little shorter this year.As Ryan Seacrest continues to defend himself against an allegation of sexual harassment, E! has chosen to stand by its longtime host, saying this week that he will occupy his usual post front and center of the action on the red carpet during Hollywood's biggest night.The decision will leave E!, its hosts, and the celebrities set to walk the red carpet in a difficult position on an occasion that marks both the culmination of Hollywood's award season and the first Academy Awards since the #MeToo and Time's Up movements forced the entertainment industry to address its issues with sexual harassment and gender-related inequity."I don't think [Seacrest is] going to have a great time on the carpet," one longtime Hollywood publicist tells CNN.News that Seacrest was facing workplace misconduct allegations first came to light in November, when Seacrest released a preemptive statement denying the accusations and revealing that E! was conducting an investigation.E! concluded its probe in early February, saying in a statement at the time that outside counsel "found insufficient evidence to substantiate allegations against Seacrest."The allegations received new steam on Monday, when in an interview with Variety, Seacrest's former stylist, Suzie Hardy, detailed instances where she said he groped and sexually harassed her.NBC's "Today" show aired a report on Wednesday in which a former co-worker of Hardy's, who NBC did not identify at the source's request, corroborated her story.In response, Seacrest's attorney, Andrew Baum, claimed the witness who spoke with "Today" had also participated in E!'s third-party investigation."He was interviewed and his claims were fully evaluated," Baum said in a statement to CNN.On Tuesday, Seacrest again denied Hardy's allegations in a statement to CNN, saying in part, "I don't want to accuse anyone of not telling the truth but in this case, I have no choice but to again deny the claims against me, remind people that I was recused of any wrongdoing, and put the matter to rest."Insistent as Seacrest is about his innocence, it may not be enough to clear the air before Sunday."It's probably easiest for some [celebrities] to avoid E!," the veteran publicist added.When asked whether executives at E! were concerned Seacrest's presence could deter celebrities from participating in the network's Oscars coverage, an E! spokesperson told CNN, "It's business as usual. Ryan will be hosting as scheduled on Sunday."At January's Golden Globes, which took place after the allegations were first known but before E! had concluded its investigation, Seacrest seemingly had no trouble getting famous faces to join him on air.However, Seacrest and co-host Giuliana Rancic were criticized on social media for not placing what some felt was sufficient focus on the activist guests who accompanied several nominees involved with the Time's Up movement.The E! hosts also had to contend with a few awkward encounters in which they were questioned about the network's handling of a pay dispute with former on-air personality Catt Sadler.Sadler left E! in December after she says the network declined to close a pay gap she'd discovered between her and a male colleague of similar standing.In a statement at the time, a spokesperson for E! said the network "compensates employees fairly and appropriately based on their roles, regardless of gender."Eva Longoria, Debra Messing and Laura Dern were among those who called out E! while being interviewed at the Golden Globes."I'm sure a few will still stop and talk to Ryan, but I would assume that there are several celebrities that will confront him based on this and/or build on the E! situation with Catt [Sadler]," the veteran publicist added. "Some will avoid [speaking with E!] all together. There are a lot of cameras on the carpet and one isn't going to make that big of a difference."E! is arguably the most visible -- and therefore popular among publicists -- red carpet broadcaster.Last year, E! averaged 2.03 million viewers during the first three hours of its Oscars red carpet coverage and 1.74 million in the last half hour, per Nielsen data.Though a fraction of ABC's preshow numbers (15.9 million viewers from 7-8:30 p.m.), it's a solid ratings result for E!, whose top-rated program, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," pulls in about 1.5 million viewers per episode.With hours of preshow programming to fill, E! is one of the few entertainment-focused outlets that pay exorbitant fees to broadcast live. Competitors like Entertainment Tonight and Access Hollywood record interviews on the red carpet to air on their syndicated shows the following day.E! places correspondents in multiple positions around the site, including a bridge that overlooks the scene at the Dolby Theater.On the red carpet, few hosts can compete with the weight Seacrest's name carries among influential circles in the entertainment industry, the sector that controls where celebrities make stops during promotional tours and appearances. In addition to contributing to E!'s red carpet coverage for more than a decade, his gigs as host of a syndicated radio program, host of "American Idol," and co-host of "Live with Kelly and Ryan" have left him with plenty of goodwill and friends in the industry.Two former colleagues of Seacrest who worked with him at E! News told CNN they never witnessed any harassment and described him as a "consummate professional."Another top film publicist calls the accusation against Seacrest "a bit of a witch hunt," acknowledging too that they were "definitely sympathetic to every woman's horrific experience.""There has to be a better way to deal with past transgressions and make sure they don't happen again without destroying so many careers."  5892
