MEET THE TECH GURU IMPROVING THE DNC'S CYBERSECURITY: When Raffi Krikorian joined the Democratic National Committee (DNC) as chief technology officer, the party was still reeling from its devastating loss in 2202 -- and the stunning cyberattacks that resulted in high-level officials' emails being embarrassingly leaked online.
Lions 24, Giants 10 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — When the Giants were embarrassingly inept in their season-opening loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the glaring lack of offense was blamed on an ankle injury that kept the All-Pro wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. out of the game.

Some of The Outsiders' immediate successors are classics in their own right (1975's Forever …) and some are embarrassingly dated (1971's Go Ask Alice), but all of them helped establish expectations for the YA tradition that continues today with books like The Hate U Give.

What follows has long been the subject of Hollywood rumor and inspired a 19833 TV film, "The Girl," so Hedren's decision to break her silence on her director's "obsessive, often embarrassingly ardent, often cruel behavior" is a significant addition to our current Trump-era conversation on sexual assault.
Embarrassingly, it has taken me 30 years in the States — though only a few months since my daughter's birth — to accept that no greater home awaits me in Europe, that my fantasy of something more whole has its fulfillment somewhere within me rather than in a physical place.

Access to Trump's tax returns would give Democrats the ability to have a closer look at the president's business dealings but, perhaps more embarrassingly for a man who built his brand on being rich, may also show that the former "Apprentice" host just isn't as wealthy as he claims to be.
It's certainly been a year of scandals for the social media behemoth, which started 2018 already on the back foot already in the wake of Kremlin-backed election interference revelations — and with Mark Zuckerberg saying his annual personal mission for the new year would be the embarrassingly unfun challenge of "fixing Facebook".

It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that the "black mirror" of the popular anthology series Black Mirror was a screen, or rather, all the screens we surround ourselves with: phones, tablets, computers, TVs, and, increasingly, futuristic devices built by massive corporations that monitor our movements and preferences and words.
And it's raised concerns in Beijing that a Mar-a-Lago summit -- the second between the two men, who met at the resort in April 2017 -- could end embarrassingly for Xi, whose willingness to meet at Trump's club rather than a neutral location could already be seen as a concession in the trade talks.
It is this perception of expertise and accessibility that separates influencers from celebrities and one-off viral sensations—though those in the latter category frequently make embarrassingly public attempts to strongarm their way into the former (see: Curvy Wife Guy, Backpack Kid, etc.)—not to mention the many other genres of on- and offline star.
The aim of these changes is twofold—to strengthen Mr Xi's grip on the 2.3m-strong armed forces, which are embarrassingly corrupt at the highest level, and to make the PLA a more effective fighting force, with a leadership structure capable of breaking down the barriers between rival commands that have long hampered its modernisation efforts.
While the ability to tell our hundreds of Facebook friends minute details of our lives — whether it be through constant status updates, wall posts or charmingly low-quality photos — used to be both socially acceptable and embarrassingly fun, the presence of parents, teachers and future employers on Facebook means that millennials' actions on the network have social consequences.

Trump's plans for pulling out of Syria were embarrassingly disrupted by Iraq, which said the US isn't allowed to redeploy on its soilVideo appears to show US troops being pelted with stones and rotten fruit as they pull out of SyriaThe story behind a soldier's act of solidarity with the US allies Trump is leaving behind in Syria
But Tremaine and the screenwriters Rich Wilkes and Amanda Adelson have sanded it down to a junior varsity "Bohemian Rhapsody," complete with many of the same crude devices: embarrassingly bad wigs, hilariously on-the-nose needle drops (the band plays "Take Me to the Top" as they go … to the top) and declamatory, subtext-free dialogue.
Embarrassingly, that is not exactly the system we have in America, but even with the electoral college, superdelegates, coin flips, and other quirks that convolute this process, how many votes each candidate gets is what's supposed to determine a winner, and it's not technically critical if the final tally of these votes is reported Monday evening, Tuesday morning, or even next week.

Embarrassingly, Cruz and his allies didn't know that the US military had in 2006 adopted the death penalty for child rape, a fact that hurt the Court majority's argument that "evolving standards" about punishment precluded the use of capital punishment in such cases; if standards in the military were evolving the other way, that's quite good evidence in Cruz's favor.
Nike still has time to take a huge chunk of it: Amazon's Zappos has a relatively small section (called "The Ones") dedicated to women's sneakers; Adidas just nabbed Kylie Jenner as its spokesperson and partnered with Refinery29 to make 50 pairs of women-specific Ultra Boosts; and Puma is almost embarrassingly dependent on Rihanna, who now has plenty of other business concerns.
And it's worth noting that many models, especially those who are caught in the middle of cultural appropriation controversy, tend to remain silent until their latest shoot is met with backlash (such as Karlie Kloss and that geisha editorial in American Vogue, or literally any of these embarrassingly tone-deaf blackface moments), after which they'll issue a formal apology via Twitter or Instagram after the fact.
So that makes Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker a pretty perfect cap to Disney's big year: It's both glutted with plot points and embarrassingly cautious, precisely calculated to not to poke the hornet's nest of detractors who popped up to voice their displeasure with The Last Jedi, with some complaining about how hallowed characters developed while others voiced more overtly racist and sexist concerns.

" Her praise was tempered: The cast, including Natalie Portman as Queen Amidala, and Ewan McGregor as a young Obi-Wan Kenobi is "often sandbagged by the physical demands of their roles"; the "bland conception" of Anakin Skywalker (played by Jake Lloyd) is a problem; and the film could do without the "noxious Jar Jar Binks" or the villains who sounded "embarrassingly like dated stereotypes from the sinister Orient.
The treatment of these persecuted migrants underscores just how much we have deviated from being the country that welcomes the tired, poor, huddled masses of other nations Finally, the news of the Saudi journalist working for the Washington Post, Jamal Khashoggi, being tortured and killed in the Saudi Embassy in Turkey, and Trump's embarrassingly weak response to it, reminds Americans just how far we have fallen as a country in terms of valuing human rights.
Apparently fishing (the first thing his Twitter bio says is that he's an "avid fisherman") and thankfully a bit of youth development: And hopefully he will continue with his rap career: (You've got to love the forced-ass line, "grind more ice than a hockey skate," people.) If there's any hope for a U.S. men's team that embarrassingly missed out on the 2018 World Cup, it's that their promising young players grew up watching Dempsey grind it out.
Also this month, Betsy DeVosElizabeth (Betsy) Dee DeVosTrump aides pushed for states' ability to block migrant kids from enrolling in public schools: report Criminal justice reform should extend to student financial aid Buttigieg to Detroit audience: Don't judge Indiana by Pence and we won't judge Michigan by DeVos MORE, Trump's Education secretary who is widely viewed as an enemy of public education, gave an embarrassingly incoherent interview on "85033 Minutes," leading many to question safety in our schools.
Two recent examples come to mind: Jennifer Weiner, a very successful author by any measure (her 2002 book, "In Her Shoes," was made into a movie starring Cameron Diaz), recently wrote an embarrassingly long diatribe on Facebook blasting Oprah for not selecting her latest novel for her book club; and the rapper the Game has posted obscene, near-nude selfies on Instagram that emphasize an enormous bulge in his underwear that may or may not be Photoshopped.
We learned this in 2016 when Apple actually did publicly refuse to unlock an iPhone used by one of the San Bernadino shooters, leading to a protracted legal fight that ended embarrassingly for the federal government when it turned out the feds didn't need Apple's help after all — partly because it paid a third-party for a tool to break into that iPhone, and partly because investigators were able to find the password on their own.

I have often bemoaned the suspicious absence of so many transformative minority lives from the annals of American theater history, among them Lloyd Richards, who went on from directing "A Raisin in the Sun" on Broadway to virtually revolutionizing the landscape of American playwriting during the remainder of the 20th century; Ellen Stewart, the visionary founder of LaMaMa, a key player in the professionalization of the American avant-garde and the redevelopment of the East Village; as well as the embarrassingly underappreciated playwright and actress Alice Childress.
As dull and uninspired here as she was riveting and iconic in Fury Road, Theron plays Cipher, an embarrassingly named super hacker who plunges F8 into the most half-assed story of cyber-terrorism since Live Free or Die Hard ... her villainous plot is so stupid that the film tries to pretend it doesn't matter, and most of Theron's performance is confined to cut-away shots where she says things like "Get ready for this" before hitting a button that triggers some bad special effects halfway around the world.
