Britney Spears’ new memoir, The Woman in Me, is a heartbreaking story about a life spent at the mercy of others. She spares no detail, for instance, in describing her time spent in a conservatorship overseen by her father. However, the book, a copy of which was obtained by TIME ahead of its Oct. 24 release, also includes some lighter moments—including a number of run-ins with A-list stars and other public figures.

Carson’s interview with Ramos, which was livestreamed on Facebook Thursday, focused mostly on race and immigration issues, but the retired neurosurgeon dodged Ramos’ two most-pointed questions on immigration.

There was a time when a twitching nose only indicated that allergy season was starting. That changed 50 years ago Wednesday, on September 17, 1964, when ABC aired its first episode of Bewitched. The classic television show focused on Samantha Stephens (played by Elizabeth Montgomery), a witch-turned-housewife who prompted magical acts with a signature wiggle of her nose. But she wasn’t the only one with a secret to keep. Here are 5 times the producers used a little TV magic to hide things from viewers:

Game of Thrones has ended its first season on HBO, but a debate rages on. Namely, if winter is coming, why don’t the women put some damn clothes on? In the Los Angeles Times, TV critic Mary McNamara used Game of Thrones, with its many female nude scenes, as a launching point to make a larger criticism of HBO: “Maybe it’s time to tone down the tits.” More specifically, she argued, between Thrones and other shows like Boardwalk Empire (that showcase of Prohibition-era frontal nudity), HBO was loading its shows up with too much flesh for the sake of eye candy, as opposed to the sake of story.

This is in reaction to the Rapid Alert System for Dangerous Non-Food Products (RAPEX) of the European Union, which started the recall because the lotion had more kojic acid than was considered safe. As per the notification published on the NAFDAC website, the lotion's concentration of Kojic Acid was found to be higher than the permitted level of 1% by the EU Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS).

A mysterious crash, dead extraterrestrials littering the landscape, a government cover-up. Today the incident near Roswell, N.M., is an elaborate tale, growing ever more so with time and mythic imagination. But when it happened, it was almost imperceptible. The wreckage was strewn over a 200-yd. swath and consisted largely of rubber strips, tinfoil, wood sticks, Scotch tape, other tape with a floral design and what rancher W.W.
