(CBS) Oprah Winfrey left a big gap in daytime programming when she ended “The Oprah Winfrey Show” earlier this year. She covered everything: Politics. Human emotion. Weight struggles. Spirituality. The Secret. And she did it in a way that drew in viewers from just about every socioeconomic group. And who has the far-reaching appeal that Winfrey has? No one. Let’s be honest. But here are some of the options from which Americans can choose to have their daily gab needs met – and maybe some of these hosts will surprise us. Anderson Cooper: The CNN anchor and reporter hit the airwaves Monday with “Anderson,” his new talk show. His first guests were Amy Winehouse’s family. The L.A. Times writes, “[D]espite the man’s famous Vanderbilt/Dalton School/Yale/CNN pedigree, [“Anderson”] appears to be eerily similar to every other daytime talk show host’s [show].” That’s just one opinion, but Anderson does appeal to lots of different groups. Perhaps he can build his show into something bigger than a traditional talk show over time.  Dr. Oz: Winfrey first had Dr. Oz on in 2004. He got his own show in late 2009 after many appearances alongside Oprah. Oz’s show – “The Dr. Oz Show” – is primarily a medical and health show wrapped up in a talk show format. Tackling belly fat is one of the subjects of the show’s new season. Dr. Drew:...

ISLAMABAD — U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo arrived in Pakistan on Wednesday at a time when relations between the two countries have sunk to a new low. The United States last weekend canceled a $300 million Coalition Support Fund payment to Pakistan and on board the plane to Pakistan, Pompeo announced his appointment of an unpopular figure in Pakistan, 고흥출장마사지 Zalmay Khalilzad, as the new U.S. special adviser on Afghan reconciliation. Pompeo said he wanted to “reset” strained relations with Pakistan, but the appointment of Khalilzad could complicate his job. “He has been very critical of Pakistan in the past and his appointment will not help move things forward,” said Zahid Hussain, defense analyst and author of two books on militancy in the region: More in Afghanistan: The way forward Khalilzad was born in Afghanistan and served as U.S. special envoy to the country following the collapse of the Taliban from 2001-2003 and then U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan from 2003-2005. He has been critical of Pakistan, often blaming the country’s deteriorating security and country-wide chaos on Pakistan’s military and powerful ISI intelligence agency, accusing them of harboring and aiding Taliban insurgents. During his visit to Pakistan, expected to last only a few hours, Pompeo was to hold meetings with new Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan as well as the country’s powerful army chief Qamar Javed Bajwa and Foreign...

(AP) WASHINGTON – Objections by Sudan’s government have held up the security mission of an elite Marine team that the U.S. planned to send to Khartoum, a U.S. official said Saturday. As a result, the deployment has been delayed and possibly curtailed, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to disclose details on the troop movement. The Marine unit, 포커 룰 known as a fleet anti-terrorism security team, was ordered to Sudan in the wake of violence and protests against the U.S. Embassy. Similar teams were sent to Libya on Wednesday after the attack that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans in Benghazi, and to Yemen on Friday Dozens protest at U.S. Embassy in ParisAl Qaeda calls for more attacks on embassiesFeds question possible anti-Muslim filmmaker Demonstrators in Sudan stormed the German Embassy before moving on in buses to the U.S. Embassy, where police used tear gas to stop them scaling the walls. The protests were part of demonstrations across the Muslim world against an anti-Islam film. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said Sudan’s government “has recommitted itself both publicly and privately to continue to protect our mission,” as obligated under the Vienna Convention. “We have requested additional security precautions as a result of yesterday’s damage to our embassy. We are continuing to monitor the situation closely to...

(CBS/AP) MADRID – The lawyers for an elderly Spanish woman who made global headlines when she botched the restoration of a fresco of Jesus Christ say she has no interest in a cut of the tourism windfall her work has brought her northeastern Spanish town. But the attorneys are gearing up to put a stop to potential copyright violations of what she created – even though she had not set out to create anything at all. “We want to put some order to this anarchy,” said Antonio Val Carreras Rivera, one of her lawyers. “You do this little by little under legality, and our job is to coordinate to prevent third parties from profiting. We are at the beginning now, we can’t say if she has rights.” The church fresco in the town of Borja was for decades a little-known piece of religious art by a minor Spanish artist. Following the disastrous touch-up, revealed in August, it has found a new fate as a global icon – used to sell products around the world. The fresco depicts Christ with a crown of thorns before crucifixion, in a style style known as “Ecce Homo” (Behold the Man). It stood in peaceful obscurity in the Misericordia Sanctuary since its creation in 1930 – until Gimenez, a longtime devotee of the work, decided it needed to be rescued from flaking caused by...
