Brighton, though, were finally starting to make the most of Chelsea's sluggish defending, pressing hard for a late leveller. |
Potter had sent on Jahanbakhsh, who closed out 2019 by ending his 18-month wait for a first Brighton goal against Bournemouth, a goal which has seemingly transformed the Iranian overnight. |
As Brighton captain Lewis Dunk headed back across the Chelsea penalty area the striker flung himself into the air and unleashed a stunning overhead kick into the far corner which, this time, Kepa could do nothing about. |
He did, however, manage to get a foot to Neal Maupay's rasping strike as the clock ticked down in order to preserve a point. |
Having seen two trips away from home as salvation over the new year run Chelsea must now return to Stamford Bridge - where they've lost three of their last four - for an FA Cup tie with Nottingham Forest before Burnley visit in the Premier League. |
The Spaniard denies Connelly, keeping out a low drive with his feet. |
Off the bench, Alireza Jahanbakhsh connects with a stunning bicycle kick, finding the far corner after leaving Kepa stranded. |
Wonderful. |
All rather pointless. |
The Brighton free kick causes havoc with Connelly flicking towards goal. |
The Spaniard reacts brilliantly to push wide. |
Brighton free kick. |

Lampard has seen enough and is sending Hudson-Odoi on to add some life to what has been a rather tired display in the second half. |
Chelsea have looked a little wobbly at the back and are struggling to trouble Brighton on the front foot. |
The teen has had a tough time of it lately, but his performance from the bench at Arsenal is encouragement enough to think he can liven things up here. |
The offside flag is up, anyway. |
His effort takes a slight deflection, enough to take it out for a corner. |
Chelsea are not looking anywhere near as comfortable on the ball as they were in the first half, a lot of rushed passes at the back with Brighton - especially sub Connolly - pressing well. |
Kurt Zouma is urging calm from those ahead of of him but it is all rather frustrating at the moment. |
He doesn't catch it quite right however and it's an easy save for Ryan. |
CNN's Randi Kaye jumps into bathtub of rum with mermaid drag queen on New Year's special |
A CNN reporter took a dip in a bathtub filled with sparkling rum with a drag queen dressed as a mermaid during the network's wild New Year's Eve special. |
Correspondent Randi Kaye was reporting live from a New Year's Eve celebration at a bar in Key West, Fla., where she stumbled upon what she described as the "queen of the sea" in a liquor-filled bathtub. |
"I don't think I've ever seen a tail so huge," Kaye said. |
"That's not the only thing that's huge here, honey," the drag queen quipped, causing CNN New Year's co-host Andy Cohen's jaw to drop to the floor and CNN anchor Anderson Cooper to shake his head from their perch at Times Square in New York City. |
Is she seeing anybody? |
Cohen jokingly asked. |
Kaye then relayed Cohen's question to the mermaid, to which she responded, "He already knows I'm not seeing anybody." |
"Oh, my God," Cooper reacted. |
Kaye went on to interview the performer. |
You're obviously not the Little Mermaid, right? |
Kaye asked. |
I'm not the biggest either. |
Let's put it that way," the mermaid said. |
"Oh boy," Kaye exclaimed. |
After she asked the mermaid how the rum was, Kaye was then pulled into the bathtub, causing the bar to roar with cheers. |
She then took a swig of rum right from the bottle and poured some onto the mermaid. |
"This is Jeff Zucker's worst nightmare," Cohen joked, referring to the CNN president. |
Randi Kaye knows how to party! |
This isn't the first memorable New Year's moment Kaye has had. |
During the 2018 celebration, the CNN reporter held a joint, lit a bong, and sported a gas mask used by stoners in Denver, where marijuana is legal. |
How to watch the Rose Parade 2020: Time, channels, highlights |
The 130th year of the vibrant spectacle of flower-strewn floats will begin in Pasadena, California, Wednesday morning. |
But you can enjoy the fun from the comfort of your couch. |
Here's how to watch the 2020 Rose Parade -- and what to expect. |
How to watch |
The festivities begin at 11 a.m. |
It's broadcast by a handful of channels, including ABC, NBC, the Hallmark Channel and Univision. |
The Rose Bowl college football matchup follows at 5 p.m. |
The Oregon Ducks will face the Wisconsin Badgers in a game exclusively on ESPN. |
What to look forward to |
The parade is helmed by a trio of grand marshals: Hollywood legend Rita Moreno, actress Gina Torres and Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez. |
Amazon, Chipotle and Trader Joe's are among the 2020 parade participants. |
The most fantastic floats can even earn awards based on their design, presentation and entertainment value. |
The only rule? |
Every inch of the floats must be adorned in flowers and other natural materials. |
This year's theme is "The Power of Hope," so expect inspiring floats that share that message. |
A few early photos hint at floats that feature daring displays of heroics, ornate feats of architecture and, as usual, timeless whimsy. |
Oh, and lots of flowery handiwork. |

Guests are stealing mattresses from luxury hotels, survey reveals |
While it's not unusual for hotel guests to be light-fingered when it comes to toiletries, some are taking it to the next level and stealing mattresses, coffeemakers and artwork from their rooms, a survey has revealed. |
Surveying 1,157 four and five-star hotels, hotel and spa reviewer Wellness Heaven found that a surprising number of bulky items go missing every year - and the more luxurious the hotel, the more likely the theft of expensive items. |
"This was surprising to me, because it is quite easy for the hotel group to determine which person stole it, because the maid will look after checkout, and it's easy to say this guest stole the TV or the mattress," Tassilo Keilmann, CEO of Wellness Heaven, told CNN Travel. |
Some 49 hotels reported mattresses had been taken since 2018, with one establishment positing that thieves take them in the middle of the night, avoiding reception by using lifts that go directly to the underground carpark. |

The results showed that mattress thefts are 8.1 times more likely in a five-star than a four-star hotel. |
Artwork was also much more likely to be stolen in a five-star establishment, with 37 per cent of top-tier hotels reporting pieces had been taken, compared to just 6.6 per cent of four-stars. |
The theft of coffeemakers, TVs and tablet computers was also more probable in the five-star places surveyed, with 12.4 per cent, 12 per cent and 23.2 per cent of hotels respectively reporting these losses. |
Four and five-stars alike said the most frequently stolen items were towels, bathrobes and hangers, with guests in the former more likely to steal these than the latter. |
Anecdotally, alongside the more standard examples were some extremely unusual thefts. |
One hotel reported that a grand piano went missing from the lobby, while another near Salzburg said the wooden benches from its sauna were stolen. |
Another guest in an English hotel took the door numbers with him, which was only discovered when the next guest staying there struggled to locate his room. |
Keilmann said that many of the most upmarket hotels prefer not to report the thefts. |
"In a lot of cases, they don't report it to the police, because they don't want to be connected to crime," he said. |
