The six seasons of the show also included some actors who would go on to much bigger things, including Criminal Minds star Shemar Moore, Gabrielle Union, and Jamie Foxx. The biggest celebrity camoes in Moesha Bow Wow - “That’s My Mama” (Season 6, Episode 16) Shad Moss (aka Lil Bow Wow, Bow Wow) has been appearing on screens since the age of seven when he appeared in the video for Snoop Dogg’s classic song “Gin & Juice....

The sheer size of the reptile—identified as a carpet python—stunned an expert from the Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers who had been called to remove it from a property in Nambour, a town in the Sunshine Coast region of Queensland. Footage of the encounter was uploaded to the organization’s Facebook page Monday week and has since attracted thousands of shares and comments. “The snakes just keep getting bigger. We were genuinely surprised when we revealed this monster Carpet Python from under the bin on their front porch in Nambour today,” Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers owner Stuart McKenzie wrote in a caption....

The party’s membership is down, and studies show it losing badly in elections scheduled for next year. But this week, a soft-spoken mayor and former general announced he wanted to run for the party’s top job so he could restore Labor’s dovish credentials and make peace despite the odds. Haifa’s Amram Mitzna, 57, advocates dismantling many settlements and reviving peace talks unconditionally. And he’s the front runner in Labor’s primary, set for November....

We won’t go into too much detail as to what we saw—just know that we get a glimpse at the family life of Hanzo Hasashi (Hiroyuki Sanda), who becomes Scorpion. During a virtual roundtable with other members of the press on Monday, McQuoid said that the movie’s opening works on two tracks. “One is story and one is a sort of stylistic approach with some of the emotional things that I wanted to get across for an audience to understand or feel, to then be carried throughout,” McQuoid told Newsweek....

Already, Perot has put two issues on the agenda that he and his backers won’t let the country forget. The first is the deficit. On “Good Morning America” last week, Bill Clinton was suddenly listing “deficit reduction” as his No. 2 priority after job creation. The second Perot issue is Washington sleaze, especially those lobbyists working for foreign interests. The pressure from the Perot movement to clean up the lobbying cesspool will likely bring some reforms....

Speaking of the character to Collider, Blanchett said of Schlafly, “She was a contemporary woman who really changed the course of the American political landscape, and I think she did that by shifting the language. “She really did move the notion of anti-abortion, which then became pro-life, as the central platform of the Republican party, and conflated that with being pro-American and pro-family, and characterized the feminist movement as being anti-family....

The Argentina captain has played almost every minute possible with his team when fit, and was almost never benched during Luis Enrique’s tenure at Camp Nou. Ernesto Valverde, however, has left Messi as a substitute for Barca’s last two Champions League outings, away to Juventus and in Tuesday’s home win over Sporting. While it has been a shock to see Leo out of the starting line-up, the player himself is convinced that it is for the best as he looks to reach the end of the season in top condition....

I was working at the time as a software engineer and earning a good salary of £75,000 ($85,636) so I wasn’t being unrealistic about what we could afford. We had searched for a long time, but it was really difficult to buy in our city. The types of houses we wanted usually had lots of interest from other people and we kept ending up in bidding wars, which we always lost....

I wanted to feel connected to these players I watched on television, read about in the newspaper and found in the packs of cards, which meant the fun facts on the back of the 1987 Topps cards — my baseball card peak coincided with the Junk Wax explosion of the late 1980s/early 1990s — were gold. But, growing up in suburban St. Louis, I also made it a point to check the birthdays and hometowns on the backs of every single card I opened....

According to Imahara’s IMDb page, the electrical engineer-turned-TV host worked on a number of projects for visual effects company Industrial Light and Magic.

In a 2016 interview with StarWars.com, Don Bies, one of the team’s other model makers and droid operators, revealed that Imahara was one of three “official” R2D2 operators on the films’ productions....

On Saturday, the West Africans succumbed 2-0 to Croatia and will have to secure a win against Heimir Hallgrimsson’s men to brighten their chances of avoiding an early exit from the competition. And the Leicester City midfielder said that the Super Eagles have put the setback behind them and now focused on a better display on Friday. “The match against Croatia was disappointing,” Ndidi told Fifa website. “However, we’ve moved past that disappointment and we’re looking forward to the next game....

The Super Eagles, on the back of unimpressive run in pre-tournament friendlies, face Zlatko Dalic’s side at the Kaliningrad Stadium on Saturday evening. And their other Group D opponents played out a 1-1 stalemate, with Iceland silencing Lionel Messi-led La Albiceleste at the Spartak Stadium earlier in the afternoon, but the former Flying Eagles coach insists Gernot Rohr’s men must avoid ‘distractions’. “We are all aware the Eagles did not perform well in most of the friendly matches they played before the start of the World Cup but it is not the right time to dissect that now,” Obuh told Goal ....

The wine growing community has recently begun investigating the smoke taint phenomenon. In the event of a brush fire or forest fire, nearby wine grapes that are exposed to smoke for extended time periods will store those aroma compounds and contaminate the final product. During prolonged periods of smoke exposure, wine grapes can absorb those compounds and attach sugars to them in a detoxification process. But when those grapes are vinified later, the sugars are separated from the accumulated compounds by the yeast used in fermentation....

“State and local officials and poll workers throughout the country really stepped up. And there have been very few complaints about how this election was run,” said Ellen Weintraub, a Democrat and FEC commissioner. “Very few substantiated complaints, let me put it that way. There is no evidence of any kind of voter fraud. There is no evidence of illegal votes being cast.” Weintraub made the comments while appearing on CNN Saturday morning to discuss the 2020 election, which had dragged into its fifth day of ballot counting before the Associated Press and other media networks declared Democratic nominee Joe Biden as winner....

The fact that the African National Congress hasn’t fully [become] a political party remains a problem. We need to solve the problem of undisclosed arms caches, of Umkhonto we Sizwe, the military wing of the ANC. The continuing high level of violence has a negative effect on the whole process. The socio-economic problems-poverty, unemployment–do not stand in the way of reaching agreement on a new constitution, but they have a negative effect....

Bishop Talbert Swan, who is president of the Springfield, Massachusetts chapter of the NAACP, told Newsweek Monday he believes people who are promoting “Blue Lives Matter” and “All Lives Matter” are being disingenuous with their narrative. A Sunday tweet from Swan urged white Americans and police officers to stop conflating one’s race, skin color with the choice of one’s job. He noted that no American ever said “All Lives Matter” or “Blue Lives Matter” until Black people began saying “Black Lives Matter....
