CHICAGO<\/strong>. Maria Hadden is the first openly gay black woman to be elected Alderman<\/a>: \u201cHadden overwhelmed Joe Moore, a 28-year incumbent, with 64 percent of the vote. She became the first openly queer black woman<\/a> elected to the City Council, and one of the first black aldermen ever to come from the North Side. Hadden\u2019s victory was widely seen as one of the biggest upsets in Tuesday\u2019s elections.

CHURCH SEX ABUSE<\/strong>. Cardinal George Pell appeals conviction over \u201cfundamental irregularity\u201d that prevented him from entering \u201cnot guilty\u201d plea<\/a>: \u201cThe verdicts are unreasonable and cannot be supported, having regard to the evidence, because on the whole of the evidence, including unchallenged exculpatory evidence from more than 20 crown witnesses, it was not open to the jury to be satisfied beyond reasonable doubt on the word of the complainant alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

HUH?<\/strong> Joe Biden calls Mike Pence a \u201cdecent guy.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

UTAH<\/strong>. Governor Gary Herbert calls some kinds of gay conversion therapy \u201cbarbaric.\u201d<\/a> \u201cHow we define conversion probably is the key issue there, but some of the things being done, particularly to young people, seems to be barbaric and ought to be eliminated. So, I have no problem . . .with some of the conversion methods being banned.\u201d<\/p>\n

MODEL MENDES<\/strong>. Shawn Mendes is not only Calvin Klein\u2019s new underwear model, he\u2019s also the new face of Emporio Armani<\/a>.<\/p>\n

JASON COLLINS<\/strong>. Not sure why no other pro basketball players have come out<\/a>: \u201cI am a little surprised that \u2026 since I\u2019ve retired, that I haven\u2019t seen any other NBA players come out publicly. I do know that they exist, that they are there. But some people just, for whatever reason, choose to live<\/a> their life in private and that\u2019s something that I understand.\u201d<\/p>\n

BUSINESS<\/strong>. Gap Inc. to spin off Old Navy into separate company<\/a>: \u201cGap revealed Thursday afternoon the company would look to split up into two public companies by sometime in 2020.

NEW TUNE OF THE DAY<\/strong>. Ellie Goulding \u201cFlux\u201d. \u201cFlux is a song that I wrote entirely from the heart that seemed to capture how I felt about not ever being able to let go of a past love, even though it was over for a reason.
