Chick-fil-A banned from San Antonio airport over alleged 'legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior' Breeders passing through San Antonio International Airport will be out of luck if they’re craving Chick-fil-A's crispy chicken or waffle fries, as the city council has banned the chicken-centric chain from opening up shop in the air hub due to the company’s alleged “legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior.” On Thursday, six members of the San Antonio City Council rejected the inclusion of Chick-fil-A from the new Food, Beverage and Retail Prime Concession Agreement for the airport, KTSA reports. The seven-year contract for concession management at the terminal is expected to create $2.1 million in revenue for the Texas city; the motion that passed gave the green light to food shops including Smoke Shack and Local Coffee. “With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion," Councilman Roberto Treviño said of the vote, as per News 4 San Antonio. "San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior." "Everyone has a place here, and everyone should feel welcome when they walk through our airport," he continued. The day before, Think Progress published tax documents revealing that in 2017, the Chick-fil-A Foundation gave over $1.8 million in charitable donations to some organizations that have come under scrutiny regarding their stance on LGBTQ issues. Over $1.65 million of that contribution was given to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, which writes in an online “Statement of Faith” that it believes “marriage is exclusively the union of one man and one woman,” and believes “sexual intimacy” should only be expressed “within [that] context,” CBS News reports. A rep for Chick-fil-A, Inc. returned a request for comment on the San Antonio airport ban with the following statement: “The press release issued by Councilmember Treviño was the first we heard of his motion and its approval by the San Antonio City Council. We agree with him that everyone is and should feel welcome at Chick-fil-A,” the rep said. “We have a fundamental code of conduct at Chick-fil-A: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” “The 140,000 people who serve customers in our restaurants on a daily basis represent and embrace all people, regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity,” they continued. “Our intent is to have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A.” “We would still welcome the opportunity to have a thoughtful dialogue with the city council and plan to reach out to them. It’s unfortunate that mischaracterizations of our brand have led to decisions like this,” the rep concluded. “The sole focus of the Chick-fil-A Foundation is to support causes focused on youth and education. We are proud of the positive impact we are making in communities across America and have been transparent about our giving on our web site.” The news marks the second time in recent months that Chick-fil-A has been banned from launching a new location in a commercial hotspot due to the company’s supposed LGBTQ stance. In November 2018, Rider University made headlines for turning down a student body survey that voted to bring Chick-fil-A to campus as a new fast-food option, citing concerns over the company’s attitudes toward the LGBTQ community. The school said in a statement that the Chick-fil-A option was removed “based on the company's record widely perceived to be in opposition to the LGBTQ community." It admitted that the move could be perceived as a “form of exclusion,” but the institution wanted to remain “faithful to our values of inclusion.” The chain pushed back against the university's characterization, saying the restaurant is merely providing food and doesn't have any agenda. In early March, Cynthia Newman, the dean of the College of Business at Rider University, elected to resign from her position regarding the Chick-fil-A ban. Newman said she made the decision on the basis of her “very committed” Christian faith, detailing that she could not support the university’s choice to bar the chain "in good conscience.”

United may 'fly the friendly skies', but Delta Airlines flies the family skies as one passenger discovered during a recent trip. Dr. John R. Watret was flying from Los Angeles to Atlanta on March 16 when he learned that the flight's pilots were actually a mother-daughter team, Captain Wendy Rexon and her daughter, First Officer Kelly Rexon. Watret, the chancellor of the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's Worldwide Campus, stopped by the cockpit to snap a picture of the two women and then posted it on Twitter. 'Just flew from LAX to ATL on Delta piloted by this mother daughter flight crew. Great flight. Inspiring for you women,' Watret tweeted, later clarifying a typo and noting that he meant to write that it was inspiring for 'young' women. Overnight, the tweet went viral, garnering more than 42,000 likes and 16,000 retweets, along with plenty of comments from people who were tickled by the notion of a parent flying a plane alongside their sprog. The official Delta Twitter account weighed in, too, tweeting, 'Family flight crew goals!' One proud papa plane captain, tweeting as rocarasa, was even inspired to post a photo of himself sitting in the cockpit next to his lookalike pilot son. Along with the praise, there were predictably plenty of wisecracks about the unusual situation. 'That is just the most amazing, wonderful news ever - seriously. My mother and I would never have flown together as crew. We couldn't even agree on having the radio on/off in the car,' tweeted SharonDunn54. 'That's pretty cool.....question is, was mother holding on to the sides of her seat for dear life when daughter was at the controls? That's what my parents do when I'm driving anyway.....' wondered bodz156. 'Mom: "Did you check the flaps? You should know better, young lady" Daughter: "I know Mom, I know! You're always telling me what to do,"' joked B_Kelley_. Wetret told the Embry-Riddle Newsroom that he learned that his flight crew were a family affair after overhearing a mom asking a flight attendant if her two children could go look at the flight deck. 'The flight attendant said they could – and that they would be surprised,' Watret recalled. When the family returned to their seats, Watret said he overheard them talking about the 'mother and daughter' who were flying the plane, which he thought was 'amazing,' prompting him to ask if he could go visit the flight deck, too. Piloting is a major inheritable trait in the Rexon family, apparently. Yahoo Canada Style reported that Wendy Rexon's father, Bill Brown, is a retired Northwest Airlines pilot. Wendy's husband, Michael Rexon, is currently an American Airlines pilot. Their other daughter, Kate, is also a pilot.

A cabbie “took his own life” early Saturday in the backseat of his car parked alongside a Queens cemetery, police said — the ninth for-hire driver to commit suicide in the Big Apple in roughly a year. The man, whose name was not immediately released, ingested or breathed in “some kind of substance” in the backseat of his Hyundai Sonata at Myrtle Avenue and 75th Street on the side of the Mount Lebanon Cemetery in Glendale around 4 a.m., police said. He was pronounced dead on scene. Later in the morning, cops removed the man from the car, head first, and laid him down on his back. His face was covered in white powder from the forehead down, and his right hand was bent upwards from the elbow. He wore a black bubble jacket, grey argyle sweater, jeans, black socks and no shoes. A bottle of pills was found on the ground, near the car. Cops could not confirm whether he worked as a for-hire driver, and the TLC did not immediately return a request for comment. Eight debt-burdened Big Apple cabbies have committed suicide in a span of just over a year. The most recent was Roy Kim, 58, of Bayside, Queens, who hanged himself with a belt in his home on Nov. 5, according to the city’s medical examiner’s office. ( https://nypost.com/2018/11/14/another-nyc-cab-driver-deep-in-debt-kills-himself/ ) Many drivers blame the suicide epidemic on the meteoric growth of ride-share companies such as Lyft and Uber, which has pinched everyone’s pocketbooks.

On New Year’s Day 2000, NYPD and FDNY squads descended on a building in lower Manhattan, where members of the art world had been partying nonstop in the basement since mid-December. Every inch of the space, including the toilets and the shower, was covered by cameras streaming live to the internet — a raunchy, real-life “Big Brother” bash. After weeks of flagrant public sex and drug use, authorities swept through the main doors, confronting dazed partygoers who were, as one first responder said, “living like pigs.” But as they were dragged into the sunlight, none of the guests knew the raid had been instigated by the event’s organizer — dot-com millionaire Josh Harris. And few would have predicted that, within 18 months, Harris would lose virtually everything, as Andrew Smith recounts in his new book “Totally Wired: The Rise and Fall of Josh Harris and the Great Dotcom Swindle” (Black Cat), out now. Harris grew up in California, the youngest of seven children. His father was usually out of the country on CIA business, though he did bring the family with him to Geneva and Ethiopia briefly before dying when Harris was 15. Harris went on to the University of California, San Diego, and the University of Southern California for grad school, where professors refused to let him build a multimedia computer instead of taking a final exam. So he dropped out, came to Manhattan and eventually launched his own consulting business. By 1993, Harris was ready for something bigger. The internet had long been the domain of techies, but now the general public was starting to find its way online. He created Pseudo.com to deliver streaming audio and video shows to these new audiences — an early version of podcasts and YouTube videos. Pseudo’s headquarters at Broadway and Houston became a focal point for “Silicon Alley,” New York’s tech-industry scene. But the company’s reputation had less to do with its cutting-edge product than its “anything goes” culture. Pot smokers held “Code Green” meetings during office hours, and at night things got even wilder. Though Harris usually stuck to whiskey and cigars, he acquired a 6-foot-high glass bong for one party, described by one eyewitness as “bigger than my bathroom.” In the late 1990s, investors gladly overlooked such shenanigans, pouring money into just about any company that even hinted at being connected to the internet. Pseudo acquired millions of dollars in funding, but the pressure for financial success that came with it may have taken its toll on Harris. He developed an abrasive, clownish alter ego named “Luvvy” who wandered through the workplace “saying the s–t nobody wants people to hear,” as one former Pseudo employee put it. At the extended blowout in lower Manhattan, Luvvy spent one night trying to coordinate a three-couple orgy for the cameras. He also promised $100,000 to anyone who could make it to the end of the bacchanal — and, with hours to spare, none of the 60 official participants had dropped out. So he called the cops on his own party. The raid was a harbinger for even greater disasters ahead. The Nasdaq index had grown by more than 500 percent since 1995 as investors fell in love with one technology stock after another. But when the dot-com companies failed to generate enough revenue to become profitable, the market plummeted. By the middle of 2000, Pseudo had spent everything it had and, unable to attract more funding, was forced to shut down. Harris, who had retained a stake in his old consulting firm, was a millionaire several times over on paper. But instead of taking sensible steps to shore up his fortune, he started funneling his money into bizarre multimedia projects. Shortly after Pseudo’s closure, he installed webcams all over the downtown loft he shared with his girlfriend so he could stream their relationship online. Less than 100 days into the project, his girlfriend got fed up and moved out. By the spring of 2001, Harris sold the last of his stock and fled the city for an apple orchard he’d bought upstate and later a remote compound in Ethiopia. In 2008, he wrote an open letter with a new spin on his financial collapse. “Pseudo was a fake company,” he declared, claiming he’d intended from the beginning to burn through millions in investor funds as “the linchpin of a long-form piece of conceptual art.” Eventually, he returned to the US, attempting to reinvent himself as a professional poker player in Vegas. Once worth more than $50 million, according to the Financial Times, Harris was now earning about $650 a month playing poker online. And yet, despite his highly public failures, there was one thing Harris was successful at — predicting the future. As he told one interviewer in 2009, “We’re moving into a world where our status and value will be measured by how many people are watching us.” A decade later, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook are all proof he was right, as they capitalize on a vision that peaked way before its time.

Well, I guess this makes it official... Tarek & Christina ain't getting back together :oops::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Christina Anstead (formerly El Moussa) is expecting her first child with new husband Ant Anstead. “@ant_anstead and I are so excited to announce #babyanstead coming this September!!” the “Flip or Flop” star captioned an Instagram photo of the couple with a sonogram. Christina is already the mother of two children with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa: Taylor, 8, and Brayden, 3. The reality stars married in 2009 and separated in 2016. Their divorce was finalized in 2018. “The kids are all so excited to meet their new sibling,” Christina continued, hashtagging the photo “#5” and “#Gonnaneedabiggercar!” Meanwhile, Ant shared a collage of all of their children to announce the news. Christina is due in September. Christina, 35, and Ant, 40, tied the knot in a secret December 2018 ceremony at their Newport Beach, Calif., home. Ant has two children, Amelie and Archie, from his previous marriage.

Brook Lopez strolled from the Fiserv Forum (SITE OF THE 2020 DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION) tunnel to the court ahead of a January game, stopped and furrowed his brow in confusion. Something was missing. Where, he wondered, are our seats? The plushy seats that are usually set up for Bucks players during home games had been replaced by folding chairs. These folding chairs were nice, sure, but the metal legs and double-stuffed cushions seen along the sidelines of most NBA arenas paled in comparison to the state-of-the-art bench seats Bucks players usually perch on during home games. Their chairs, he later learned, had been taken out temporarily for maintenance. “I’m so glad to know they’re coming back,” Lopez said. This wasn’t the type of maintenance you’d expect for bench seats. In a luxurious, brand-new arena that features customized amenities such as shower nozzles mounted 9 feet above the ground to accommodate the league’s giants, the seats might be the most thought-out design touch. They’re so unique, in fact, that the Bucks spent months ironing out an exclusive business arrangement with the manufacturer. Made to heat to 106 degrees Fahrenheit — the optimal heat to maintain muscle temperature, according to one study — these sleek, matte black seats took three years, 12 University of Colorado students, a New Zealand research group and six prototypes to perfect. At the touch of a button, the seats can be raised to accommodate long-limbed Giannis Antetokounmpo or lowered for Eric Bledsoe’s more compact frame. Don’t bother asking how much they cost; even the swankiest home goods stores won’t be selling these. “They’re definitely great,” Khris Middleton said of the Bucks’ new secret weapons. “I put my seat all the way to the top. It’s not too comfortable to be scrunched all the way up. “The heat is definitely needed. You see players with heat packs all over their bodies all the time, so to have a chair that heats replaces the heat packs.” NBA teams have been in a longstanding arms race with various technologies, such as wearables that report biometric measurements and movement trackers, but the Bucks have taken a different approach. They have designed a product that mixes performance and comfort. Now, because the Bucks own the design of the seats, other NBA teams will have to go through them if they want to outfit their arenas with similar chairs. While the Dallas Mavericks are widely credited as the first team to install cushy, adjustable bench seats in their arena, the Bucks are the only team that gives players the option to toast their hamstrings. “It’s a pretty good bonus. You get to warm your buns up,” guard George Hill said. “I’ve never had anything like that before.” The sideline seat warmers, manufactured by Figueras USA, were conceived by Bucks director of performance Troy Flanagan. “An over-the-top amount of research and design went into these chairs,” Flanagan said. “It is the most carefully engineered seat you could ever imagine.” The quest for the perfect seat began in 2015. Flanagan read a study in the Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise Journal that noted that British cyclists who wore battery-operated, heated tracksuits between their warm-up periods and their races exerted 9 percent more power output than cyclists who let their muscles cool in between. At first, Flanagan tried to design heated pants for the Bucks, but he quickly concluded that it was unreasonable to ask Middleton to charge his tracksuit before each game. A year later, the Bucks recruited University of Colorado mechanical engineering professor Jack Zable to help design the first prototype of the chairs. That prototype was flown out to Milwaukee for the players to test and rate its durability, comfort and structure. “We wanted to make sure that they were safe,” Flanagan said. “They are super robust, but if a player was to collide into them, they are soft, padded, safe and low-voltage.” Flanagan also had to ensure that the seats followed the Bucks’ ticketing department’s strict height regulations. If the seats were able to be adjusted too high, a player such as D.J. Wilson, who likes to raise his seat as high as possible, might block the view of a valued season-ticket holder. “They use the height design feature a lot,” Flanagan said. “The guys complain that they’re a little bit stiff when they get up from conventional chairs.” Guard Sterling Brown classifies himself as an “in the middle” guy — he doesn’t like his seat too high or too low. Brown can take or leave the heat, he said, preferring to apply heat packs directly to his quads. Antetokounmpo and Lopez adjust the seats all the way to the top to allow for extra leg room. Malcolm Brogdon rocks the lowest seat. “I think Malcolm is the only one who does that. I don’t know what his issue is,” Wilson joked. “I wouldn’t do that.” Now that the Bucks have adjusted to their new seats, they have started to notice inferior products around the league. Former Bucks big man and current Piston Thon Maker insists that Cleveland has the NBA’s most uncomfortable seats because the chairs are lower than the court, causing players’ knees to crunch up into their chests. When LeBron James played in Cleveland, he and then-head coach Ty Lue would use booster seats to elevate their perches, but the cushions were not available to every player. The verdict: The adjustable height is imperative. Most players are not convinced, however, that the heat makes a noticeable difference in their performance. “The seats are great, but not because of the heat — because they are adjustable,” Brogdon said. Added Wilson: “The heat is just for your backside. I still use the heat packs for my knees.” Word of the seats has spread. Opposing players will pause their warm-up routines to test Milwaukee’s seats, raising them up and down, only to be disappointed to find that the visitors bench doesn’t have the same features. Within weeks, rival teams began to call general manager Jon Horst about his magical chairs. Among the teams that have reached out to Horst are the Golden State Warriors, who are exploring options for the team’s seating in their new arena. “There are a number of teams that have taken notice on their own or getting second-hand information from players who’ve experienced the chairs,” Horst said. “We have a number of general managers who have called me and asked about the chairs.” The cutting-edge seats, then, are a bit like the rising organization that designed them. The secret is out. STERLING BROWN, GIANNIS, PAT CONNAUGHTON

Conservative moms draft petition to ban a Kit Kat commercial Nearly 8,500 followers of a conservative protest group calling itself One Million Moms has launched a petition attacking Kit Kat chocolate’s “tasteless” new ad. The 15-second commercial is set to the Missy Elliott song “Work It” and includes a line where a reference to the male anatomy is replaced with the sound of an elephant blowing its trunk. That’s a little more than the members of One Million Moms want their kids experiencing. “This song is about sex, and the lyrics are extremely offensive,” according to the petition launched Tuesday. "The song includes a word for male genitalia that is bleeped out by an elephant trumpet: ‘If ya got a big (phrrrrr), let me search it.’” The petition argues the focus of the ad is its sexual message and not the chocolate bar. “Not once is KIT KAT audibly mentioned during their irresponsible commercial,” the call to arms reads. The ad shows the Kit Kat logo along with the words “Breaks are good. Have one.” One Million Moms "current campaigns” page leads readers to commercials for Cottonelle toiletries and Walmart stores, which the group accused of promoting homosexual lifestyles. The latter ad, which they says shows two men on a date, got more than 17,000 signatures. Nestle’s, which owns Kit Kat, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

New Jersey doesn’t run without Dunkin’. NJ Transit riders couldn’t get into the Hamilton train station Thursday morning because a doughnut worker who was supposed to open the doors showed up late, the agency told commuters. “Hi Steve,” someone with the initials T.B. tweeted to an angry rider. “Like previously stated, Dunkin’ Donuts is responsible for opening the doors in the morning at Hamilton station.” The NJ Transit agent then revealed that it has chronic problems getting the fast food employees to open the station doors on time. “NJT has spoken to the vendor multiple times,” T.B. tweeted. “If you would like to file a formal complaint, use the link below.” Riders erupted at the revelation, accusing NJ Transit of not doing enough to make sure passengers can get to their trains. “Why is a donut shop in charge of opening a train station?” asked Jerry Burke. NJ Transit officials didn’t immediately return calls for comment.

AND IT WAS MY FAVORITE IN COLLEGE She’s supermarket chic. An upstate New York woman has turned a food shopping staple into a style statement — by knitting a suit made of 300-plus Wegmans plastic grocery bags. Rose Ferrigno of Greece tells the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle: “I do it for fun.” The unlikely supermarket fashion collaboration kicked off in August when Ferrigno — a seamstress who once worked at Hickey Freeman in Rochester — was at a family picnic where another guest was carrying a bag made from repurposed plastic bags. The carryall caught her eye, so she and her daughter, Fran Bertalli, took to YouTube to find instructions on how to construct one. Ferrigno, 75, then knitted a tote made from red, white and blue plastic JC Penney bags and a braided purse from the brown and green Wegmans shopping bags. But what good is a braided Wegmans handbag if you don’t have any clothes to match? Ferrigno — who emigrated from Siciliy at 16 and spends summers tending to her garden — decided she’d knit the suit to keep her busy through the winter months. But before she could even start, she needed needles big enough to work with plastic. They didn’t exist, so she whittled her own. Then she cut the bags into strips, tying them together to create a yarn-like material. After the suit was complete, she lined it with a sheer brown cotton fabric. The project took about two months. Ferrigno unveiled her suit at a family member’s post-wedding brunch this month, and she dazzled the crowd. “Everybody went crazy!” Bertalli says. According to the paper, Wegmans was also impressed. “We love it when our customers reuse or recycle grocery bags, but never have we seen a work of art like Rosa’s!” says Jo Natale, the supermarket chain’s vice president of media relations.

Lake Michigan was covered with a blanket of ice shards this week as the spring thaw in the Midwest shattered the frozen water into a million pieces. Captivating images of the shards were taken on Tuesday as the Coast Guard warned locals to be careful as the ice-covered lake began to break apart, according to MLive.com. “No ice is safe ice especially this time of year,” Coast Guard chief Grant Heffner told the site. “The ice is certainly deteriorating and breaking up.” The shattered formation was caused by water moving underneath the ice and causing it to float in unique patterns. The temperature in Lake Michigan reached 23 degrees below zero during the frigid winter. A total of 56 percent of it had been frozen.
