Ambrose Burnside. In 1874, the Republican Party was symbolized as an elephant in a cartoon drawn by Thomas Nast in Harper’s Weekly. In 1916, Republican Jeannette Rankin of Montana became the first woman elected to Congress, winning a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. In 1944, President Franklin D. Roosevelt won an unprecedented fourth term in office, defeating Republican Thomas E. Dewey. In 1962, Richard M.

CELEBRITY REPORT People magazine names actor Elba 2018 s Sexiest Man Alive People magazine has named Idris Elba as 2018’s Sexiest Man Alive, and the British actor says the honor has given him a boost of self-confidence. Elba, who starred in “The Wire” and “Luther,” was surprised after being crowned this year’s winner, the magazine said. “I was like, ‘Come on, no way. Really?’” he told the magazine. “Looked in the mirror, I checked myself out. I was like, ‘Yeah, you are kind of sexy today. ’ But to be honest, it was just a nice feeling. It was a nice surprise — an ego boost for sure.” Elba’s selection was revealed on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fal lon,” with the actor appearing via satellite from London. Fallon had Elba perform poses to match the magazine’s cover description of him as a “sweet, smoldering superstar. ” Elba said of his selection, “My mom is going to be very, very proud.” The actor has also starred in Marvel’s “Thor” franchise and as Nelson Mandela in the film “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.” Elba, 46, also performs on the side under the deejay name DJ Big Driis and has his own clothing line. He is also planning a wed ding with his fiancee Sabrina Dhowre. The actor has a 16-year-old daughter, Isan, and a 4-year-old son, Winston, from previous relationships. Elba told People about his upbringing as an only child of African immigrants growing up in East London. The actor said his parents were strict and he got picked on often while attending an all-boys school despite playing an array of sports including football, basketball, cricket, hockey and rugby. “I was very tall and skinny,” recalled Elba, who stands at 6-foot-3. “And my name was Idrissa Akuna Elba, OK? I got picked on a little bit. But again, as soon as I could grow a mustache, I was the coolest kid on the block. Grew a mustache, had some muscles, bonkers.” Past winners include Dwayne Johnson, David Beckham, Chris Hemsworth, Adam Levine, Channing Tatum and last year’s hon- oree, country star Blake Shelton. Elba will be featured in a special double issue that will hit newsstands Friday. The actor said he tries to live life with few regrets. “Life isn’t about thinking about what you should have done,” he said. “I think everyone should adopt the philosophy that tomorrow is not promised so just go for it today. You might as well do it to your heart’s content. ” Associated Press AROUND TOWN TODAY Gainesville Plein Air Painting Days. 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Quinlan Visual Arts Center, 514 Green St. NE, Gainesville. 770-536-2575, autoeac@mindspring.com.

You won’t regret taking the high road. To extend dignity and peace to another is to extend it to yourself. Doing the right thing is its own reward, but this time it will come with a bonus. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s not like you consciously pick and choose which “you” to be. The right version of you just emerges unbidden to handle the situation. Too much in terference by your conscious mind can only slow you down. GEMINI (May 21-June21). Just because you lower your pride doesn’t mean you’re signaling defeat. This may be an act of deference, respect or strategy. Humility takes strength. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Gather experience. Repetition of the same task is experience, too, but it’s not going to grow you like facing the unknown. You’ll learn more about your self in the face of fresh experi ence than you would through introspection. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Beware of people who act like they’ve got it all figured out. Perhaps they really have sorted through a small section of life, and you can learn from them in that regard. But that’s not true for every regard. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are ardent in your affections. You will express yourself in an open, confident manner and with great warmth and heart. Loved ones will feel lucky to be on the receiving end of your generosity. LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23). Bril liance! Forcefulness! Courage in action! After you give your self a moment to soak in your victory, rest. That’s the step not to skip. If you keep going full tilt without a rest, you’ll risk a setback. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The quality of attention you give will make you a favorite among your people. Not only do you acknowledge others when they speak, you also extend an ap preciation for the personal risk taking that may be involved. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Take full advantage of this world before rushing to explore the next one. You’ll get there soon enough. And when you do, you’ll probably look back and count today as being among “the gold ole days.” CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Can you arrange your sched ule so that you can catch the sunset? The magical time just before the sky falls asleep will bring a benefit to your psyche and may even make your dreams sweeter. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Something changes to set the usual dynamics of a close re lationship a little off-kilter. This is a move toward improvement though it may not seem like it right away. You’ll avoid stag nation. All is working to your benefit. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A handwritten letter was once the prevailing method of com municating on matters of news, love, gratitude and in tention. Now it’s a rarity, which is why, if you write someone a note, it will be a cherished me mento.
