He went on in the same year to enjoy an NCAA Sweet 16 berth, making him and his father <mask> one of the few father and son coaches to accomplish such feat. The team then made it to the Elite 8 before losing to the national championship-winning Duke Blue Devils. In 2011, <mask> led Baylor to an 18–13 overall record and a seventh-place finish in the Big 12. In the first round of the Big 12 Tournament, Baylor lost to Oklahoma. Hours before the game, Baylor was informed that star player, Perry Jones III, would not be allowed to play for accepting impermissible benefits, a decision that was later reversed. The team did not participate in a postseason tournament.In 2011–12, the Bears started the season 17–0 and rose to third in the AP Poll and the coaches' poll—the highest weekly rankings in school history at that time. However, Baylor finished the season on a 13–8 run in their last 21 games and finished in a tie for third in the Big 12. In the Big 12 Tournament, they defeated No. 3-seeded Kansas in the semifinals, but lost to Missouri in the championship game. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, where they advanced to the Elite Eight before losing to Kentucky. The loss marked the second time in three seasons that the Bears' season ended at the hands of the eventual national champions. In April 2012, the NCAA put the Baylor men's and women's basketball programs on three years probation and implemented scholarship reductions after an investigation revealed major recruiting violations and impermissible involvement of talent scouts at the basketball clinics they hosted.It was also revealed that one of

During the 2012–13 season, Baylor fell to 23–14, 9–9 in Big 12 play to finish in sixth place. An early loss in the Big 12 Tournament resulted in the Bears failing to get an invitation to the NCAA Tournament. They accepted a bid to the NIT where they would advance to the championship game and defeat Iowa to win the NIT. In 2013–14, the Bears finished with a 26–12 record, again finishing in sixth place in the Big 12. However, they advanced to the Big 12 Tournament championship with three straight wins, including a win over No.17-ranked Oklahoma, before losing to No. 16-ranked Iowa State.

<mask><mask> (/ˈbaɪər/; pronounced BYE-er, August 15, 1929 – November 13, 2012) was an American scientist who invented the Bayer filter, which is used in most modern digital cameras. He has been called "the maestro without whom photography as we know wouldn't have been the same." Without his filter, Larry Scarff, a former chairman of the Camera Phone Image Quality Standards Group, told The New York Times after <mask>'s death, "we'd still be getting only black-and-white pictures from our digital cameras." Early life and education

<mask> was born in Portland, Maine, on August 15, 1929, to Alton and <mask>. As a boy he tinkered with Brownies and other cameras. He graduated in 1947 from Deering High School in Portland, where he spent a good deal of time in the school darkroom. "He, in fact, processed all of the pictures for his high school yearbook," his son David told The New York Times following <mask>'s death.After receiving a bachelor's degree in engineering physics from the University of Maine in 1951, Bayer moved to Rochester, New York, to work as a research scientist at Eastman Kodak, where he would remain until his retirement in 1986. At Kodak he met Joan Fitzgerald, a fellow researcher; they were married in 1954. Bayer pursued further studies at the University of Rochester, from which he earned a master's degree in industrial statistics in 1960. Bayer filter

In 1974, while working for Kodak, Bayer completed his design for the Bayer filter, for which he filed a patent application in 1975 and in 1976 received U.S. patent number 3,971,065. The filter employs what is called the "Bayer Pattern," a checkerboard-like arrangement of red, green, and blue pixels on a square grid of photosensors that allows digital cameras to capture vivid color images. Half of the pixels

texts: collect green light, and the others are evenly divided between red and blue light. The patent application described the filter as "a sensing array for color imaging" that "includes individual luminance- and chrominance-sensitive elements that are so intermixed that each type of element...occurs in a repeated pattern with luminance elements dominating the array."In the early eighties, <mask> explained that, as needed, the filter provides more information on luminance and less information on chrominance. "The pattern is very simple," Ken Parulski, former chief scientist for Kodak's digital camera division, told The New York Times after Bayer's death. "There are twice as many green elements as red or blue because this mimics the way the human eye provides the sharpest overall color image." Parulski added that although dozens of other patterns have since been devised, including some by Parulski himself, "the Bayer pattern has stood the test of time." Larry Scarff, a former chairman of the Camera Phone Image Quality Standards Group, told the Times that "Ninety-nine point nine-nine percent of all digital cameras — cellphones, pocket cameras, webcams and consumer digital video cameras — use the Bayer pattern to produce color pictures." One commentator said that Bayer's filter "marked a significant paradigm shift in the way we view and capture images." Dr. Terry Taber, Kodak Vice President and Chief Technology Officer has said that the "elegant colour technology invented by <mask> is behind nearly every digital image captured today."According to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, <mask>'s work on the filter "helped pave the way for the development of the first working digital camera a year later." Steve Sasson, co-inventor of the first digital camera, told the Rochester

 newspaper "that <mask>'s contributions were not only pioneering but prophetic." "We weren't even thinking about digital cameras in those days," Sasson said. "<mask> was trying to figure out how to capture color with a two-dimensional array of color-blind sensors, and that turned out to be one of the foundations of digital imaging. He was solving a fundamental problem before that problem was even upon us." Sasson added that "<mask> has always been a hero for me." Parulski told the Democrat and Chronicle that he felt "very lucky to have worked with <mask>, starting on my very first day at Kodak....<mask> was so modest and unassuming, it took me years to realize what a genius he really was."Parulski added "that <mask>'s invention is the key reason we have cameras that are compact yet provide sharp-looking pictures." Other professional activities

<mask>'s contribution to photography also included algorithms that play a crucial role in storing, enhancing, and printing digital images. As a leader within the Information Technology Laboratory within the Physics Division of the Kodak Research Laboratories (KRL), <mask> demonstrated, in the early eighties, that computers could greatly enhance image quality. For example, he showed a large print of a dock scene made from a very small Disc camera negative. The image looked like it had been made from a much larger 35 mm negative. One could see the braids in the rope sitting on the dock. About fifteen years earlier, in the mid-sixties, he developed a way to encrypt information in a way that the code could not be broken by others.Again, he developed this as a leader within the KRL Information Technology Laboratory. At the time, he was also studying Shannon's work on information theory and entropy, Shannon-Fano coding to use shorter

 codes for more frequent words or signals, etc. <mask> led a group in the areas of computer programming, applied statistics, information science, and applied mathematics. The group developed an automated way to selectively disseminate information to users based on their interest profiles and on their interest level feedback. This process is like processes used today by Google and Amazon. In the mid-1960s, there was a group of similar size to <mask>'s group working down the hall from <mask>'s group. They were working on psycho-physics related to user assessment of digital image quality, color perception, etc.The Bayer filter enables a digital imaging system to do what the eye does. The extra green sensors provide more luminance information, as the rods in the eye do, when it is dark. When the digital imaging system and the eye encounter situations with low levels of illumination, both systems can provide and use more luminance information and less chrominance information. Honors and awards

<mask> was awarded the Royal Photographic Society's Progress Medal in 2009 given "in recognition of any invention, research, publication or other contribution which has resulted in an important advance in the scientific or technological development of photography or imaging in the widest sense." In 2012, Bayer received the first Camera Origination and Imaging Medal from the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers. Personal life and death

<mask> and his wife had two sons, Douglas and David, and a daughter, Janet. <mask> died on November 13, 2012, in Bath, Maine, of "a long illness related to dementia," his son Douglas told The New York Times.References

 who voiced Tuxedo Mask. She described the role with Serena as best friends who sometimes fight, but not really the bully persona that was shown. She would record about two to three episodes a week, and it was not difficult on her voice. She likes that Mars is "fiercely loyal, strong, loves martial arts, sings... and the fact that she can summon fire and destroy evil, lol, Rei and I are very similar in character." In the animated TV series Braceface, <mask> voices Nina, a mean eighth-grader girl who gives the title character her moniker. In the Moon Chase interview, <mask> said "I don’t think I have one single thing in common with Nina, so it was fun playing that role. I guess in the end, I like playing badass kind of characters."In voicing Alex in Totally Spies!, <mask> used a higher vocal register than usual. She was worried about nodules developing, and being recast when the series returned for season 6 following a hiatus, but was happy when she could return. She found the part to be really fun, easy to play, and liked that Alex was so lovely to animals. She notes that about the only thing Alex and Raye (Sailor Mars) have in common is their ability to kick some ass. She also voiced the character Ruby in Max & Ruby and Mary of the Geniuses and Miles of the Vegans in Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race. In live-action acting, she starred alongside Rob Lowe as his love interest in Too Late to Say Goodbye. She also worked with Nicole Kidman and Glenn Close.Music career
Some of <mask>'s influences in her music style include: Sarah McLachlan, Madonna, The Tragically Hip, as well as alternative music bands Hole, Foo Fighters, No Doubt, and Radiohead.

 She enjoys singing but realized she wasn't going to get a record deal by just that. She learned guitar and began writing songs. Following one of the commercial voice-over jobs where she sang a jingle, she played some acoustic songs and her friend suggested she get her songs produced in an album. She was introduced to Michael Kulas of the band James. Kulas was able to produce many of her acoustic songs so that they became more of a pop/rock album. The album title Kiss Me Chaos was based on the Kiss Me, Kate musical, as she describes herself as being pretty strong and like "Kate the Shrew".It released in streaming service in February 2020.

title: Shirley Horn

texts:
<mask> (May 1, 1934 – October 20, 2005) was an American jazz singer and pianist. She collaborated with many jazz musicians including Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Toots Thielemans, Ron Carter, Carmen McRae, Wynton Marsalis and others. She was most noted for her ability to accompany herself with nearly incomparable independence and ability on the piano while singing, something described by arranger Johnny Mandel as "like having two heads", and for her rich, lush voice, a smoky contralto, which was described by noted producer and arranger Quincy Jones as "like clothing, as she seduces you with her voice". Biography
<mask> was born and raised in Washington, D.C. Encouraged by her grandmother, an amateur organist, <mask> began piano lessons at the age of four. Aged 12, she studied piano and composition at Howard University, later graduating from there in classical music. <mask> was offered a place at the Juilliard School, but her family could not afford to send her there. <mask> formed her first jazz piano trio when she was 20.<mask>'s early piano influences were Erroll Garner, Oscar Peterson and Ahmad Jamal, and moving away from her classical background, <mask> later said that "Oscar Peterson became my Rachmaninov, and Ahmad Jamal became my Debussy." She then became enamored with the U Street jazz area of Washington (largely destroyed in the 1968 riots), sneaking into jazz clubs before she was of legal age. According to jazz journalist James Gavin, the small New York City record label Stere-O-Craft discovered <mask> in Washington, D.C. and brought her to New York, to record her first album, 1960's Embers and Ashes. <mask> had recorded with violinist Stuff Smith in Washington, D.C. in 1959, as a pianist in one of the rhythm sections featured on Cat on a Hot Fiddle. Unfortunately for <mask>, Verve Records did not include her name on the album's list of

(A later reissue of Stuff Smith's Verve recordings on Mosaic Records documented <mask>'s participation, and included three <mask> vocal performances of George Gershwin songs that were left off the album.) <mask>'s Embers and Ashes record attracted the attention of jazz trumpeter Miles Davis, who praised <mask> publicly and invited her to play intermission sets during his performances at the Village Vanguard.Davis's praise had particular resonance in two respects: because he was highly respected as a musician, and because he rarely offered public praise for fellow musicians at that time. A 1961 live performance recorded in St. Louis' Gaslight Square district was eventually released on LP under the title "Live" at the Village Vanguard. (A later CD reissue of this material was released under the title At the Gaslight Square 1961). By 1962, <mask> had attracted the attention of Mercury Records vice-president (and jazz arranger) Quincy Jones, who signed <mask> to Mercury. On her two Mercury LPs, <mask> was placed in a traditional pop setting with medium-sized jazz orchestra, and on neither album did she play piano. According to jazz journalist James Gavin, a third Mercury LP was recorded but never issued, and as of 1993, the tapes for that album were presumed to be lost. <mask>'s final LP of the 1960s was 1965's Travelin' Light, recorded for ABC-Paramount.She was popular with jazz critics, but did not achieve significant popular success. Though she had recorded a song by The Beatles on Travelin' Light, <mask> for the most part resisted efforts to remake her into a popular singer in the mid-1960s, later saying of such attempts "I will not stoop to conquer." From the late-1960s to the early 1980s, she was semi-retired from music, staying in Washington, D.C. to raise her daughter

She made one album in 1972 for Perception Records, but the record received little notice, and <mask> did not tour to promote it. In 1978, <mask>'s career got a boost when SteepleChase Records of Denmark tracked her down in Washington, D.C. and offered to record her with drummer Billy Hart, (whom <mask> had known for many years) and bassist Buster Williams. The resulting album, A Lazy Afternoon was the first of a total of four Horn albums released by SteepleChase between 1978 and 1984. <mask> also began to play engagements in North America and Europe, including the North Sea Jazz Festival, where two of her albums were recorded.In 1986, <mask> signed a one-record deal with CBS-Sony for the Japanese market and released All of Me, a studio session recorded in New York City with her regular rhythm section, plus guest Frank Wess on three tracks. By early 1987, Verve Records was pursuing a recording contract with her, and in May of that year, the live album I Thought About You, her first for Verve, was recorded in Hollywood. <mask> recorded one further session for an indepdendent jazz label (1987's Softly, for Audiophile Records), then returned to Verve. She released a total of 11 studio and live albums for Verve during her lifetime (additional compilation albums added to this total). <mask>'s most commercially successful years were spent with Verve, and the label helped her find a large international audience. Miles Davis made a rare appearance as a sideman on <mask>'s 1991 album, You Won't Forget Me. Although she preferred to perform in small settings, such as her trio, she also recorded with orchestras, as on the 1992 album Here's to Life, the title song of which became her signature song.A video documentary of <mask>'s life and

A follow-up was made in 2001, named You're My Thrill. <mask> worked with the same rhythm section for 25 years: Charles Ables (bass) and Steve Williams (drums). Don Heckman wrote in the Los Angeles Times (February 2, 1995) about "the importance of bassist Charles Ables and drummer Steve Williams to <mask>'s sound. Working with boundless subtlety, following her every spontaneous twist and turn, they were the ideal accompanists for a performer who clearly will tolerate nothing less than perfection". Her albums Here's to Life, Light Out of Darkness (A Tribute to Ray Charles) and I Love You, Paris all reached number one on the Billboard jazz chart.A breast cancer survivor, she had been battling diabetes when she died of complications from the condition, aged 71. She is interred at Ft. Lincoln Cemetery in Washington, D.C. Since her death, concert recordings of <mask> have been released on CD and DVD by Resonance Records and Image Entertainment. Awards and honors
<mask> was nominated for nine Grammy Awards during her career, winning the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance at the 41st Grammy Awards for I Remember Miles, a tribute to her friend and mentor (the album's cover featuring a Miles Davis drawing of them both). She was officially recognized by the 109th US Congress for "her many achievements and contributions to the world of jazz and American culture", and performed at The White House for several U.S. presidents. <mask> was awarded an honorary Doctor of Music degree from the Berklee College of Music in 2002.

<mask> (either March 1831 or 5 April 1830, in Glasgow – 31 July 1885, in London) was a Scottish-born railway engineer. Early life
<mask> was born in Glasgow, the son of T<mask> (an engineer) and <mask>. He trained at Crewe and Swindon railway works, then joined first the Londonderry and Coleraine Railway as Locomotive Superintendent in 1852, and four years later the Bombay, Baroda & Central India Railway before returning to London in 1859 to establish himself as a railway engineering consultant. Ffestiniog Railway
He is chiefly known for the invention of the Fairlie double-bogie articulated locomotive (patented in 1864) that is particularly associated with tightly curved railways and especially narrow gauge mountain lines. The first such, the Pioneer, was built in 1865 for the Neath and Brecon Railway, but it was with the Little Wonder built in 1869 for the Festiniog Railway that Fairlie made his name as the inventor of something special. On the Festiniog Railway the new locomotive was tested against the railway's existing George England and Co. four-coupled tank locomotives. A series of tests, for which detailed performance records survive, were held between 18 September 1869 and 8 July 1870.On 11 February 1870, a formal demonstration was held, for invited guests from around the world, including: The Duke of Sutherland; Mr W. T. Mulvany, from Prussia; M. Tolme, engineer; M. Phillippe Kremer from Paris, engaged on the Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod Railway; Mr Christer P. Sandberg, Swedish Consulate, London; Count Czheni, Russia; Count Alexander Berg, son of the generalissimo of the Russian army,

Fairlie received many orders and commissions following the trials. In 1873-1874 he travelled to Venezuela, but this trip resulted in a serious illness. By 1876 forty three railways operated Fairlie's patent locomotives, not always successfully.Elopement and marriage

texts: years earlier by a remarkable case (reported in The Times of 8 April 1862) brought against him in the Central Criminal Court by his longtime business associate, George England, who alleged perjury on the part of <mask> <mask> who had eloped with England's daughter Eliza Anne England and, to procure a marriage licence, had sworn a false affidavit that her father, Mr George England, had consented to the union, which was not true. After this marriage they had run away to Spain. This accusation would, if proved, have resulted in a prison sentence. Under cross-examination by Sergeant Ballantyne (who appeared for Fairlie), George England was forced to admit that he had run away with his present wife, who was the mother of the young lady in question, and that he had a wife living at that time. He had lived with this lady several years but could not marry her until his wife died. By a quirk of English law, at that time, a child born out of wedlock was considered nobody's child. In law she was nothing to do with George England and could marry whom she pleased.There was no case to answer and therefore a verdict of not guilty was returned. But none of this stopped George England building <mask>'s remarkable double-engine for the Ffestiniog Railway seven years later. Fairlie's Little Wonder was delivered to the FR in the summer of 1869 and George England retired. In September 1869 <mask> joined with George England's son and J.S. Fraser to take over the Hatcham Works and to form the Fairlie Engine & Steam Carriage Co. but George England junior died within a few months. Locomotive production ceased at the end

<mask> (; 9 August 1928 – 16 August 2021) was a Persian-American composer and ethnomusicologist who spent much of his career in Dublin, Ireland. An emeritus professor of music, he was a fellow of Trinity College, Dublin. Described by the Irish Times as a "a gifted and distinctive composer of contemporary classical music," his compositions include orchestral, concertante, piano and choral music, as well string quartets and chamber works. He also wrote numerous film scores, including that of Dariush Mehrjui's 1969 film The Cow. However, his musicological research dominates his legacy; his writings on the music of Iran—a country which he insisted be called 'Persia'—were pivotal in ethnomusicology, particularly his acclaimed 1990 study The Dastgah Concept in Persian Music. Life and career
<mask> was born on 9 August 1928, in Tehran, the capital city of what was then Imperial State of Persia, but renamed in 1935 as Iran. His father Ebrahim Farat was a senior official at the Persian Ministry of Finance married to his mother Sedique.The <mask> family had descended from a long line of "secularised Muslims", many of whom were civil servicemen like Ebrahim. His cousin Shahin <mask> also became a composer. According to <mask> himself, his early exposure to Iranian music was limited to his father occasionally playing the tar. Instead, he recalls that his ""early musical outlook was mainly western", later filtered through the country's radio station that was established in 1939. <mask> later moved to the United States and received a BA in music from the University of California, Los Angeles, UCLA (1953), an MA in composition from Mills College, California (1955), and a Ph.D. in composition and ethnomusicology from UCLA (1965). He studied composition with Darius Milhaud, Lukas Foss, and Roy Harris. In 1959, <mask> founded the Music of Persia

 civil unrest stemming from the 2014 fatal shooting of Michael Brown by a police officer.Social media

In 2015, photos posted on the anonymous chat board 4chan created what the BBC called one of the year's "biggest internet sensations" by showing an obese, 47-year-old Englishman dancing exuberantly at a concert. "Spotted this specimen trying to dance the other week," the caption read. "He stopped when he saw us laughing." Incensed at the fat shaming, <mask> launched a social media campaign to "Find the Dancing Man". With a friend, <mask> created a GoFundMe account to locate the man and fly him to Los Angeles for a celebrity-packed party with 1,000 guests at Avalon Hollywood, one of L.A.'s hottest clubs. The viral campaign raised $70,000 for anti-bullying and positive body image charities in the U.S. and UK. Shift to right

In 2016, <mask> "underwent something of a political transformation," according to BBC News.Having begun the year as a supporter of Hillary Clinton's main rival within the Democratic Party, Vermont U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders, <mask> was by fall rallying her 70K Twitter followers to support Donald Trump. In an October 2016 episode of BBC Television's Panorama, <mask> said, "I'm going to be voting for Donald Trump. I think that Hillary Clinton is a terribly dangerous person." Cosmopolitan subsequently named her a leader in the defiant Deplorable movement, alluding to a campaign speech by Hillary Clinton. In January 2017, <mask> was one of the organizers of the DeploraBall, an unofficial inaugural ball at Washington's National Press Club to celebrate Trump's victory. In 2020,  <mask> claimed that trespassers set upon her house during on the night of May 31, pounding on windows, detonating fireworks directed towards her residence, and shooting firearms; she

 blamed Antifa for the incident.A supporter set up a GoFundMe campaign to help with moving costs, which accrued over $24,000. Right Wing Watch published a report contradicting <mask>'s claims, citing "conversations with eight of Fairbanks' nearby neighbors," "nonexistent coverage in local press," and a report obtained from the Metropolitan Police Department—all of which corroborated only the claim that fireworks were detonated approximately 100 feet away and no gunshots were fired. Writing career
<mask>'s writing career began in 2014 as an outgrowth of her activism. At the Free Thought Project, she reported mostly about police brutality. In 2015 she wrote for PINAC News, continuing to chronicle controversial policing around the United States. That summer, she live streamed her own arrest while covering anti-police brutality protests on Interstate 70 in St. Louis. Also in 2015, <mask> was hired as a reporter for the Russian state-funded international news agency Sputnik, and moved to Washington, D.C., for the position.In early 2016, while still with Sputnik, <mask> also wrote 10 bylined articles for Teen Vogue. While working for Sputnik, <mask> was often a target of conspiracy theories by Louise Mensch; <mask> filed a complaint with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center against Mensch for cyber stalking and harassment. In April 2017, <mask> and Mike Cernovich posed for a photo behind the lectern in the White House briefing room, each making an OK gesture at the camera. According to Britain's The Independent, this "sparked outcry on social media" because the hand sign can symbolize white power. <mask> denied the gesture was racist, citing her partial Puerto Rican ancestry (her mother is from San Juan). After journalist Emma Roller tweeted the photo, which she captioned "just

A year later, the court found that <mask> failed to show that Roller posted the image with actual malice.Upon leaving Sputnik, <mask> spent April–November 2017 as a senior reporter at Big League Politics. In December 2017, <mask> became the Washington bureau chief for The Gateway Pundit. In 2021, American citizen journalist Tim Pool hired <mask> to run his website. WikiLeaks
In October 2017, <mask> wrote a story for Big League Politics about Julian Assange. In January 2020, National Public Radio subpoenaed <mask> seeking documents and electronically stored information relating to her conversations with Assange, among others, including journalists. The subpoena was part of a defamation lawsuit against NPR by Texas money manager Ed Butowsky. <mask>'s attorney responded that since the subpoena requested work product protected under the District of Columbia's reporter shield law, "no documents or other things will be produced pursuant to the subpoena."On February 24, 2020, Politico reported that <mask> had submitted evidence to the legal team defending Assange in his London extradition hearing. The evidence consists of screenshots and recorded phone calls spanning October 2018 – September 2019 that <mask> had with Arthur Schwartz, identified by The New York Times as a "conservative consultant who is a friend and informal adviser to Donald Trump Jr.". On February 27, 2020, The Daily Dot reported that <mask> posted audio of a September 2019 phone call from Schwartz to her in which he stated that Ambassador Grenell "took orders from the president" in brokering Assange's arrest. On September 21, 2020, <mask>'s written statement was read in a London court during

The barrister representing the U.S. government questioned the partiality of <mask>, an acknowledged WikiLeaks supporter, and argued that "the truth of what Ms. <mask> was told by Arthur Schwartz was not in her knowledge." <mask> also said when Schwartz phoned her in October 2018, he "was extremely angry" and alluded to her nine-year-old child, "which I perceived as an intimidation tactic."He repeatedly told her, said <mask>, to stop advocating for WikiLeaks and Assange, saying a pardon would not happen. She added that besides informing Assange of all this during her January 2019 visit with him, "I also met with Chelsea Manning in person and told her that I feared they might come after her again." Chelsea Manning
<mask> sent Chelsea Manning personal letters while Manning was in prison. After Manning's release, she and <mask> were on opposing sides in a protest in the Bay Area, though they later met over coffee to converse. In January 2018, <mask> provided a complimentary ticket and VIP wristband for Chelsea Manning to attend "A Night for Freedom" gala for Trump supporters. References
