The true origin of the Dalmatian is unknown, although it is believed to have originated in India. Paintings and figures of spotted dogs have been found in ruins as old as 5,000 years. Numerous written references to spotted dogs occur throughout history. The modern Dalmatian, notwithstanding his name however, was developed in Great Britain. While some Dalmatians were used for hunting, the breed's primary purpose was as a coach dog. Coach dogs were by no means ornamental - they were there to guard the passengers and property in the coach. Because of their affinity for horses, it was natural for the Dalmatian to follow horse-drawn fire engines. Many fire departments are still graced by a Dalmatian mascot who guards the firehouse and helps educate children about fire safety. Dalmatians have been in this country since its founding, with George Washington being the most well known early breeder.
The Dalmatian was recognized by the United Kennel Club in 1914.
The Dalmatian is a medium-sized, well-balanced and muscular dog, with a distinctively spotted short coat, high-set drop ears and a natural tail carried with a slight upward curve. The correct relationship of length of body to height at withers is 10:9, making the breed slightly longer than tall. The Dalmatian should be free of exaggeration or coarseness. It is capable of great endurance, combined with a fair amount of speed. Deviations from the described ideal should be penalized in direct proportion to the degree of the deviation.
The Dalmatian is outgoing and friendly, never shy or hesitant. The breed should be free from any nervousness or aggression.
The head is proportionate to the size of the dog and is free of loose skin. Viewed in profile, the top lines of the skull and muzzle lie in parallel planes. There is a moderate stop.
The skull is almost flat, with a slight frontal furrow and well-defined temples. The skull is nearly as broad as it is long.
The cheeks blend smoothly into a powerful muzzle that is about equal in length to the skull. Lips are clean and close fitting.
The Dalmatian has a complete set of evenly spaced, white teeth meeting in a scissors bite.
The nose leather is completely pigmented, black in black-spotted dogs, and brown in liver-spotted dogs.
Serious Fault: Incomplete nose pigmentation.
Set moderately well apart, somewhat round, medium size, bright and sparkling with an intelligent and alert expression. Color dark brown in black spotted, light brown to amber in liver spotted dogs.
Eye rims completely black in the black spotted, and completely liver brown in the liver spotted dogs.
Serious Faults: Functional abnormality of eyelids or eyelashes; incomplete pigmentation of the eye rims.
The ears are drop, of moderate size, proportionately wide at the base and gradually tapering to a rounded tip. They are set rather high, are carried close to the head, and are thin and fine in texture. When the Dalmatian is alert, the top line of the ear is level with the top of the skull and the tip of the ear reaches to the bottom line of the cheek.
The neck is fairly long, nicely arched, and blends smoothly into the shoulders. The neck is entirely free of throatiness.
The shoulders are smoothly muscled and well laid back. The upper arm is approximately equal in length to the shoulder blade and joins it at an angle sufficient to insure that the foot falls under the center of the shoulder blade. The elbows are close to the body.
The legs are straight, strong and sturdy with round bone. Pasterns are short and slightly sloping, with some spring.
The Dalmatian is about as long, measured from prosternum to point of buttocks, as tall, measured from the withers to the ground. The line of the back inclines very slightly downward from the withers and then becomes level. The loin is short, muscular and slightly arched but narrower than the rib cage, and with a moderate tuck-up. The croup is nearly level with the back. Viewed from the front, the chest is deep, moderately wide, and well filled. The ribs are well sprung without being barrel shaped. Viewed from the side, the forechest is well visible and the brisket extends to or below the elbow.
The hindquarters are rounded and powerful, with smooth, well-defined muscles.
The legs are straight and parallel from hip to foot when viewed from behind. The second thigh is strong and there is good angulation at the stifle and hock joints.
Good feet are an essential feature of this breed. The feet are round and compact with well-arched toes and thick, elastic pads. Toenails may be black or white in black-spotted dogs, and brown or white in liver-spotted dogs. Dewclaws may be removed.
The tail is a natural extension of the topline. It is thicker at the base and tapers to the tip. It is carried with a slight upward curve but should never curl over the back. A tail of the correct length reaches to the hock.
Faults: Tail set well below the topline; ring tail; vertical tail.
The coat is short, dense, fine and close fitting. A correct Dalmatian coat is glossy and sleek.
Severe Faults: Woolly or silky coat.
Color and markings, and their overall appearance, are very important points to be evaluated. The ground color is pure white. In black-spotted dogs, the spots are dense black. In liver-spotted dogs, the spots are liver brown.
Spots are round and well-defined, the more distinct the better. Spots vary from the size of a dime to the size of a half-dollar. They are pleasingly and evenly distributed. The less the spots intermingle the better. Spots are usually smaller on the head, legs and tail than on the body. Ears are preferably spotted.
Dalmatians are spotted dogs without large patches. Patches are a serious fault; they should be faulted in proportion to the degree that they vary from the ideal description of spots. Some limited patching around the eyes (monocle) and on or around ears is acceptable but not preferred.
Serious Faults: Patches. Faulted in proportion to the degree that they vary from the ideal description of spots.
Disqualifications: Any color markings other than black or liver. Tri-color. Lemon-colored spots. Albinism.
The Dalmatian has good substance and is strong and sturdy in bone, but never coarse. Desirable height is between 19 and 23 inches measured at the withers.
Eliminating Fault: Over 24 inches at the withers.
In light of the Dalmatian's historical use as a coach dog, correct movement and endurance are essential. Powerful drive from the rear combined with extended reach in front results in a steady, effortless trot. Elbows, hocks and feet turn neither in nor out. The topline remains level when gaiting. As the speed of the trot increases, there is a tendency to single track. Poor movement should be penalized to the degree to which it reduces the Dalmatians ability to perform the task it was bred to do.
Eyes of two different colors.
Over 24 inches at the withers.

I love this movie! This made my day.
J.M. Vargas October 1, 2015 at 5:45 AM
It's no "Exorcist II: The Heretic" (come on, you guys!) but I'll take it. Should make for a fun post-Thursday Night Football late night viewing. :-)

This is fantastic! What a nice surprise.
Perfect for my franchise watching. Im saving this for when I get to the Halloween movies. Epic. Thank you
Re SMM I sending out a challenge to you all, I want someone to watch every single Hellraiser film in order, come on F heads, someone go for it
J.M. Vargas October 1, 2015 at 1:48 PM
Eh.. no. But I'll say, after recently watching Anthony Hickox's two "Waxwork" movies, I'm dying to revisit his "Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth" (which I already liked anyway).
Tristan Dearden October 1, 2015 at 3:04 PM
I just watched the first one recently. Didn't even really like that one. And then I saw the eight sequels :O. Think I'll pass.
E.S.A.D.D. October 1, 2015 at 3:50 PM
I did this the week before SMM last year. My favorite was Hellworld, which is an extremely '90s movie despite being from 2005. Revelations was unwatchable. Interesting cast members that may or may not make an installment worth watching based on whether you like them: Kari Wuhrer is the lead in Deader, Adam Scott's a side character in Bloodline, and Dean Winters (Mayhem from the Allstate commercials) is the smuggest horror character O.A.T. in Hellseeker.
Dennis October 1, 2015 at 6:10 PM
Take a bow for seeing them all. You could be the only person to of seen everyone ;)
Michael Giammarino October 1, 2015 at 10:42 PM
I stopped watching after Scott Derrickson's Hellraiser 5. The first two are my favorite. Watching the documentary Leviathan makes me want to revisit Hellraiser III.
Mikko Viinikka October 1, 2015 at 11:00 AM
Thank you guys, hilarious commentary (I expected nothing less).
Just a heads up, if you don't own the movie (I'm waiting for a region B Blu-ray), it can be found on YouTube in its entirety. It's dubbed in German but what does that matter when you're listening to the commentary anyway.
Gunther Peeters October 1, 2015 at 11:32 AM
I had to make this movie jump the cue, did not regret this.
BTW: I unapologetically liked it as a child.

My god, Atkins. Every second he's on screen I can just smell the Marlboros, Old Milwaukee and cheap scotch.
Adam Riske October 1, 2015 at 2:02 PM
This made me laugh out loud. Thanks!
I enjoy the weirdness of this movie, Adam, and part of it is Atkins.
Best packing job ever - lingerie & a parka
Daniel Epler October 1, 2015 at 6:01 PM
Maybe it's just that this is one of my favorite horror movies ever, but I think this is your best commentary.
Patrick is so hilarious here! I love his high pitched, "YES", every time it's suggested that Atkins does something sexually devious. Atkins would love this.
No, I'm sure now. This is your best.
That was a great way to start Halloween month thx guys loved it.
Michael Giammarino October 2, 2015 at 1:21 AM
This was the funniest commentary I've heard in a long time.

This was a fantastic commentary! I wish you guys would do more of these. This movie gets better every time I watch it. It's definitely my second favorite Halloween movie.
Kelly Shea October 2, 2015 at 4:18 PM
After listening to this, your Halloween franchise podcast, and the Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers podcast about this before ever watching the actual film, I think I may be breaking some kind of "Season of the Witch build-up" record. I can only hope that Tom Atkins lives up to the dreams I've been having.
I love that, in F This Movie's SMM commentary fantasy land, Tom Atkins not only did it with a robot and bedded half the human race. Atkins also did it with Angela from "Sleepaway Camp," and got away with it without losing what he was giving: head. If Tom's mustache somehow wound up in Deputy Grease Paint's face our movie reference universes would collapse onto themselves. :-D

Order a dirty martini, heavy on the olives. Turns out this common drink garnish could be more helpful for combating a hangover than popping a few aspirin the morning after.
This creamy vegetable risotto gets an extra verdant punch from nutrient-packed spirulina, which gives the Italian classic a lovely green hue.

The Government is fully mobilised to maintain the town's quality of life and has initiated a proactive sustainable development policy.
The Principality, a town-State that is 2 km² in size, the home of 36,000 inhabitants and the workplace of 50,000 employees, faces the same environmental issues as all cities, compounded by the challenge of its compact territory. In this regard, the Prince's Government is conducting a proactive sustainable development policy.
This decisive policy can be observed through strong backing for public transport both in the Principality and beyond its borders, the deployment of adjustable traffic flow plans and the development of automated pedestrian links.
Furthermore, the acquisition of clean vehicles is incentivised for individuals and businesses and systematic for State departments.
Rationalising water consumption and wastewater treatment are key issues in a sustainable town.
As for waste management, the population has been very receptive to the recycling initiatives that have been put in place.
Monaco covers an area of 270,000 m², and 20% of the territory is given over to public and private parks and gardens.
Since the 1960s, the surface occupied by parks and gardens has increased from 50,000 to 270,000 m². These areas are managed in an eco-responsible manner: by preserving water resources, limiting chemical treatments and developing organic pest control methods.
Maintaining quality of life is closely related to the intrinsic quality of marine and land environments. Particular care is taken to maintain their stability through the deployment of monitoring networks, such as testing the quality of the air or waters used for swimming. Noise in the town is also subject to controls according to its nature and level.
In 2014, the Government launched its Responsible Trading initiative for traders in the Principality. The aim was to promote environmentally responsible practices, with a particular focus on reducing waste and cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
The first stage of the initiative provided support to traders to help them prepare for and implement the Sovereign Ordinance on plastic bags and utensils.
In 2017, the Government is introducing the Responsible Trading label, which will enable people to identify traders who have signed up to an environmentally, economically and socially responsible approach. It will highlight eco-friendly practices among traders and support them as they move towards more sustainable consumption.
See the page "How to obtain the Responsible Trading label"


In the war for our attention in the living room, Roku's become a household name. Well known for their sleek set-top boxes, sticks, remotes & TVs, Roku's been a driving force behind much of our steady stream of Hulu & Netflix binging. But unlike Apple, Google, and Amazon, they hadn't yet ventured into the audio spectrum of our entertainment systems – until this week, anyway.
With the Roku TV Wireless Speakers, Roku's aiming to simplify the home theater experience. Simply plug them in, follow some on-screen prompts on your Roku TV, and you're all set. It's a dream setup for anyone that's looking to improve the audio quality of their smart TV, but without going through the hassle of a higher-end sound system.
And for $149 (or $199 once the "presale offer" ends on 7/23) it's comfortably within the territory of an affordable upgrade to your living room.
A notable feature for these speakers is their ability to stream audio, wirelessly, in real-time from your TV. Anyone who owns a Chromecast + Google Home, Apple TV + HomePod, or Amazon Fire Stick + Alexa will tell you: It's a real drag that they're unable to replicate this seemingly table-stakes feature. Roku skirts around these hurdles by leveraging their own Roku Connect platform to keep the software and hardware working smoothly together. And yes, it also supports Bluetooth.
Speaking of hardware, I'll be honest – they're ... fine. They're black speakers with some plastic. Cheers. Sure, I'll admit, I appreciate the lack of overt branding or chrome, but I don't think Roku's going for any design awards with these. This set of speakers is really looking to scratch a pretty specific itch: Folks who just want better sound than their TV, that works wirelessly, and doesn't break the bank.
If that sounds like you, (and you're already running some Roku hardware,) then I think you may have found yourself a winner.
I grew up always trying to make things, from tweaking with my toys to trying to build things by breaking others, that's how I think I got into design. Later I graduated in Industrial Design and since then I have been making digital products.

If my brother emailed me in FEBRUARY with a video he made of a snake eating a kitten, telling me that he did it for me - I would certainly not be attempting to have a normal conversation with him via Skype in MARCH.
Really?! The skype convo came after?? Very strange :s
Rayemonde, Nov 14, 2014
Apparently LM wrote a blog article in August 2010 saying that he wanted to work for the Canadian Security and Intelligence Services. Bit odd for someone so paranoid about the government isn't it!

Wow. He emailed his sister about the kittens?! And asked her how she felt being the sister of a murderer just before he got arrested?
Hm... sister of a murderer... the use of Homolka's sister's address as a return address. Interesting.
This witness... he seems more professional than the last. I still disagree with the psychosis thing, but so far, it looks like this doctor actually took time and put thought into his conclusion. I do not think what Magnotta's sister said (about the emails) really fits with that, though.

Rayemonde said: ↑
Dr Allard did say she tried to speak to his family but they refused (except for his dad). His mum came to visit him in prison at first iirc buy then stopped / I think they had another falling out and have cut him off completely. Jmo.
I think this psychiatrist seems more honest than Allard though... He isn't omitting stuff that makes LM look bad. Do you think the defence got Allard in because they didn't like what Watts' report said? But then decided to call him anyway?
I am not entirely sure WHY the defence even bothered with Allard. She painted the picture of a manipulative liar, NOT of a severely mentally ill man. IMO, it looked like she had absolutely no idea how or why she came to the conclusion that he must have had a psychotic break during the murder. I haven't formed too much of an opinion on Dr. Watts yet, other than he seems more professionl and honest (so far). I guess we will see if he pulls the same "I don't know. Must have been the psychosis" thing Allard did.

He's like a little kid smearing poop on the walls because he's so desperate for attention from his parents.

Speaking of poop...
Mr. Magnotta also denied ever wanting to kill anyone, and told Dr. Watts he wasn't aroused by violence, though he admitted to being aroused by "scat" (human feces) because "it makes him feel closer to people."

I hope the Crown will be calling his sister to the stand. JMO
I believe we heard at the beginning that none of his family would testify other than his father and they weren't even sure if he'd make it because of his illness. There must be a reason for this? I don't think they can subpoena out of jurisdiction witnesses? Not sure. I'm sure Lori Holmoka would rather not have testified?
Maybe they knew the sister would be a hostile witness? I don't think she's going to help the Crown sentence her brother to life in prison. And I don't think she wanted to be cross examined either. Hence the testimony via a doctor. Very clever of the defense to get all this testimony in without the ability to cross anyone to see if they're at all credible.
LM's sister doesn't indicate that they lived such a bad life in her interview with Watts however, although she does admit that LM was different and was bullied and tormented because of it. I'm sure a lot of gay men went through the same in their childhoods in the 80's/90's. It was still not as accepted then as it is now. And LM was probably exaggerating a lot of things for attention. Was the family dysfunctional? Sounds like it, but then we only have LM's word for everything. The sister still seems to be close with the mother and grandmother. And did I read somewhere that the younger brother may be incarcerated?
So who knows if any of the things LM has said about his childhood are true? How could anyone possibly know for sure? Obviously the family isn't talking. And if those stories get him a NCR verdict then why would the family show him up to be a liar? Catch 22 really.

And there's the trailer info coming in with this report...
According to forensic psychiatrist Joel Watts, who assessed Mr. Magnotta over 40 hours of interviews and who concludes he was psychotic at the time of the May 25, 2012 killing, he asked him "about online postings that appeared on the Internet in the weeks prior to the killing, allegedly promoting the video of Mr. Lin's death."
To this, Dr. Watts said, Mr. Magnotta replied, "I have been trying to make sense of it. I hope it was not me. I don't remember doing it, it feels weird."
Though the information is in Dr. Watts' report, he hasn't yet been asked about it at trial.
Really? "I don't remember doing it and I hope it was not me?" (who posted the trailer and all the comments hyping the movie)seriously? He's a piece of work all right. :notgood:
Oh no...not the FOG!! You should post this over in the Jodi Arias forum. :giggle:
Another great resource though. Thanks for posting it.
I wonder if the Crown can start pulling in things like his videos and online postings after the defense is finished bringing it all in and minimizing it. I wonder if all of what we think is missing is coming in the rebuttal. Because the defense is opening A LOT of doors here for them.
So how much of the activity noted in these extensive blogs about LM's online life made it into the hands of the psychiatrists the defense sent to analyse him? And without all this information, which spans years prior to him supposedly "going off his meds" how can they make an assessment? How do you explain this behavior when he's being treated apparently?

UGH!! Such twaddle. I can't believe his nerve :gaah:
So glad we're finally getting to this subject though.
Fairy, Nov 14, 2014
Twaddle :giggle:
It sounds more like, "it wasn't me and you can't prove it, unless you can, and then I really can't explain it. It's that "weird feeling" thing again.
I wonder if Dr. Watts has a medical term for the "weird feeling" defense of all his actions pertaining to this murder? :waitasec:
But yes, I think this might be the first time the subject of the trailer is brought up.

Started speaking again in late 2011. Mom thought #Magnotta was lying about Russia,suspected he was living in Montreal.
Mom suspected #Magnotta made the cat killing video despite his denials.
I wonder if this is one of the reasons he dislikes her so much - she knows him too well and doesn't fall for his stories.
You could be very correct with that thought. She didn't coddle or let him get away with things? She also had the nerve to have two other children after him to take the attention away from him.
But the home schooling thing seems like she really did/does have personality disorders of her own, especially OCD. It doesn't appear as though she wanted to be supermom and actually teach her children, she just didn't want them at school with all the germs. And who knows about the stepfather? If it's true and she knew it and stayed with him, shipping LM off to his father, then he really does have a reason to resent her. Although he struggles with a love/hate relationship for sure. Why would he sent her a Mother's Day card while simultaneously planning a snuff film? And why would he tell her he was married (to a woman) and living in Russia? Did she have an issue with his sexuality?
Yep...I can't see how anyone can truly do a proper assessment on LM without all the facts. And following this case has unfortunately really soured me on the mental health system and some of the people working in it.
About the stepfather story, he says he was both physically and sexually abused by him. I find it very odd he claims to have had sexual contact with BOTH of his parents' partners. I was thinking these could possibly have been stories/exaggerations made in attempt to destroy those relationships and focus his parents' attention back on him.
I hate to be so suspicious, but I can't help it with LM. One I could believe, but BOTH step-parents? I'm raising an eyebrow.
It's a shame that Dr. Watts decided not to talk to the mother more. It seems she had reasons to distrust him, but we don't know what they are.
I kind of do believe he was molested by at least one of his step parents. Unfortunately, that sort of thing is way too common to completely dismiss. Was it BOTH? I don't know. His experience with one could have "inspired" him to make up a story about the other. Or, perhaps he BELIEVES the abuse happened even if it didn't.
It is really hard to say with this guy. I just think that these particular claims are amongst the few that may be based on truth (to some extent).
Like I said, neither of these doctors made any attempt to verify his stories. Dr. Watts could have asked the mother point blank about LM's accusations. He didn't, which tells me he didn't want to know or to put her likely denial in his report. I don't trust either of these doctors or their intentions.

The second tallest dancer in the Mariinsky Ballet, was not even the 2nd tallest in her final class at Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet. The two girls to her right on the barre had grown greatly, surpassing Kondaurova's height. The girl immediately right of her, was slightly taller. The girl to the right of that girl, was even taller. The tallest girl is in the back right of this center exercise. The girl to the left of Kondaurova in the center exercise is slightly shorter than Kondaurova. This ended up being a basketball sized graduation class.


I stopped in at Engine 15 Brewing Company in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. One of the flagship beers is Nut Sack Brown Ale which I couldn't resist trying. What a treat! This is a smooth, nutty, brown ale. Full of malty sweetness. This beer is easy to drink. I enjoyed it so much I purchased a bomber bottle to bring home and share with my friends and family.

The story of a girl and a guitar...
Nothing wrong with a little write
You walk into the Holiday Inn, not realizing there is music playing at the attached Commodore Grille. You don't think too much about it until you hear a soft female voice accompanied by acoustic guitar, and something tells you to meander over and take a listen. You do, and see a girl playing guitar to a soft, emotional ballad written by herself. Passion in her eyes, she ends the song and the audience erupts with applause. You feel some connection to the lyrics she just sang, so you wait to hear her introduce her next song. The next one is faster and sassier. She now has a little mischief in her eye as she sings about someone who did her wrong. She has a cool guitar riff that sticks in your head the rest of the night.
Sami Jo is a country singer/songwriter with a strong influence of classic rock. With a lifelong passion for writing songs, her desire is to touch hearts with her music, either in a catchy, tapping of the foot manner or a simple, speak to your soul sort of fashion.

Nurmagomedov is almost an unknown entity who has been on the downlow since 2014. In fact, most fans may have come across the name, but they do not have a face to put to it. The question everyone asks when it comes to Khabib Nurmagomedov is – who is he?
Well, Nurmagomedov is someone who fights in the lightweight division and has been rather inactive in recent years. However, if you look at his record from 2012 until 2014, the numbers are very impressive indeed. He was nearly invincible with a record of 24 – 0. Sadly, Nurmagomedov has had issues with his weight fluctuating rather significantly and has been ill on several occasions which is why he has been inactive. However, things have not been the same since his absence. Not only is the weight division different, but the competition now is way stiffer than it used to be back during Nurmagomedov's days.
On the other end of the octagon will be Edson Barboza who is the underdog in this fight by a long mile. While has been written off by most and may probably only serve as a good stepping stone for Nurmagomedov, we still know he is capable of causing an upset.
In terms of prediction, this is a pretty straightforward one and Nurmagomedov should not have much trouble putting away Edson Barboza.

Interview: Bob Saget Talks About His Philly Roots
Did you know the comedian and star of '90s hit "Full House" was born-and-bred in Philadelphia? Bob Saget talks about his rise from these streets to what's on tap next.
(©Natalie Brasington)
In his 30-plus-year career as a comedian, Bob Saget has taken on many creative roles. Some know him as Danny Tanner, the lovable, cleanliness-obsessed father figure on the hit ABC show "Full House," others, for his less-than family friendly standup. What may surprise some people to find out is that this Grammy-nominated comedian, actor, director, producer, writer and television host was born right here in Philadelphia, and launched his career in this city.
What affect did Philadelphia have on your career?
The first place I preformed standup at was a club called Grand Mom Minnie's, which I got to do [at age 17] from winning a contest for the radio station WMMR with a song about bondage. The real consequential thing that happened to me was in college, when I started performing standup at my friend Stephen Starr's club, called Stars. I did impressions of Bob Dylan—the usual stuff that everyone does when they have a guitar—and I opened for Frank Stallone and Valentine, and Richard Belzer and Rich Hall. It was quite the break and a very cushy learning place. Now [Starr] owns Buddakan and Morimoto and all these wonderful restaurants. Every time I see him I tell him that he started me.
Was there anything about the city that inspired your comedy early on?
You know that "Rocky" thing isn't really a joke? Some people go, 'Why is the Stallone statue at the art museum steps? Well, it is a symbol for how a lot of Philadelphia people look at the city, which is you come out of nothing and beat your way to the top. It's a good town because if you make it big in Philly, they're very loyal to you. It was kind of a sheltered way to do standup comedy. You're not trying to get on TV; you're just trying to make people laugh as much as you can. I really built myself in Philly. It feels like home because I was like an embryo growing there.

What is your fondest Philadelphia memory?
I won the Student Academy Award when I was 21 in 1987. I made a movie called "Through Adam's Eyes." My mother was head executive at Children's Hospital and my nephew had gone through some surgeries. I got to make a documentary about that, and it got a lot of attention. It brought me back out to LA where I had been years before.
"Full House" first aired 28 years ago. The show was your big break, along with your gig hosting "America's Funniest Home Videos." At what point did you know that it would run for the rest of time?
I didn't know it at the time at all and really didn't think it was going to stay on the air. In the beginning, it was [fighting] to stay alive when we were on Tuesday nights. We were running against "Seinfeld," arguably the best show on TV. It was when the network moved us to Friday nights that we started to do well. Even after the show ended, it was only a year or two until they started its syndication. I never expected any of that. It's still on television and young kids are rediscovering and falling in love with it right now. For that, all I have is appreciation.
Your book "Dirty Daddy: The Chronicles of a Family Man Turned Filthy Comedian" is a New York Times Best Seller. What do you think people are most surprised to learn about you?
My book "Dirty Daddy" took a year and a half to write. I wrote a mixture of comedy with stories of hardships, life experience and death. It became a mission statement of how I look at things. It could not have been a more fulfilling experience. It helped me look at and frame what I'd like to do as I continue on my artistic path. I think one of the biggest talking points is that there was so much loss in my life, and my family's life. My life was never an easy one. When it became a New York Times Best Seller, I said, okay, who got paid off?
What can your fans expect from you next?
The thing that I know is constant and [that I am] excited about is the growth of my standup. My standup just kind of lives and breathes as this thing, as this friend of mine who I go and spend time with. It's the other me. I'm writing new music and conversational comedy. The next couple years for me will be an artistic genesis of material I've never really approached before. I'm working on an independent film, and I'm developing a TV show. In 2016, I'd like to put out a new special. I love acting a lot. I'm working on a movie now called, "Killer Set." It's about a mobster that goes into the Witness Protection Program in a small town and becomes a comedian. He just does that to lay low but he gets popular, so that screws up the Protection Program. I play a guy who is a singer, but all he sings about is stalking women.
How long do you think you'll be doing standup?
I can't imagine doing it for another 10 years, but my friend Don Rickles is 88, and I just saw him on stage the other night. I am a comedian, and I always will be, no matter what form. Right now, I see another 10 to 15 years of not even thinking about it because I just want to get really good at this..
You've performed all over the country. Do people respond to your comedy differently in different cities?
I talk to the audience like it's a friend, which is why I wanted to play a room the size of the TLA [in Philly] and not a gigantic place where people can get lost. I'm going to talk about things I couldn't talk about anywhere else because nobody [other than Philadelphians] has Geno's or Pat's rivalry conversations. You get people to cheer certain things, or boo ,because that's Philly.
Who do you consider to be your biggest comedic influences?
Charlie Chaplin from the very start. I owned all the silent films when I was a kid. I loved Groucho a whole lot. I loved the film comedians. As I got older, I was more into standup, so I got to know several like Rodney Dangerfield, Richard Pryor and Don Rickles. Then there's the young talent I can't help but like, like Woody Allen and Albert Brooks. I think Louis C.K. is going to make it. I really adore Bill Burr. He works so hard and is so good at what he does.
What was the first joke you ever told?
One of the first jokes I told goes something like: There's a kid sitting on a bench and another kid comes up to him and goes, 'Hey what are you eating?' He goes, 'Smart pills.' The other kid says, 'Let me try one of those,' and he takes it and says, 'It tastes like rabbit poop.' The other kids goes, 'See you're getting smarter already.' It's not even a good joke! It's the idea that why was the other kid eating it?
You've said you prefer to call comebacks do-overs or redefinings. What do you think will be your next redefining career move?
I've never known what the redefining roles were in my career at the time. It seems that every seven years something happens that I'm in three things at once that converge and make an impact. There are three things I'm working on right now, and it could be any one of them. It won't be my male modeling career. The thing that makes me happiest in life is being a dad to my daughters. That's still the thing that fills my heart the most.

Thank you Father Bill. I have wondered if "fasting" from pre-packaged foods full of chemicals, humanly engineered foods (GMO) is really a stand of fasting or something else?
I think true fasting should either be 1) following the general rules of the Church, or 2) giving up something we especially like or are hooked on. I think we should avoid foods with harmful chemicals and GMO foods all the time. This is just my opinion, not a decree from on high!


#60: Pastoral Logotherapy: Seeking Wholeness Through Healing Mankind's Spiritual Malaise - Presentation by Father Jeremiah N. Murasso, Ph.D.
Presentation by Father Jeremiah N. Murasso, Ph.D.
Pastoral logotherapy is the application of logotherapy principles within the context of pastoral counseling. This application is primarily championed by the Graduate Center for Pastoral Logotherapy at the Graduate Theological Foundation.
Father Jeremiah N. Murasso, Ph.D., is the Robert C. Leslie Professor of Pastoral Logotherapy at the Graduate Theological Foundation. Father Murasso was ordained to the priesthood in the Roman Catholic Church in 1979. He holds multiple graduate degrees in the areas of theology, philosophy, psychology, and education. At the recent World Congress on Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy held in Dallas, Texas, Father Murasso received the Robert C. Leslie Award for outstanding contributions to the fields and interfaces of psychology and religion.
The following presentation was delivered to the World Congress on June 20, 2013 and is entitled "Pastoral Logotherapy: Seeking Wholeness Through Healing Mankind's Spiritual Malaise." We join the lecture in progress.
Father Murasso is the author of Logotherapy and the Logos of God in Christic Wisdom published in 2008. The Amazon link to the book is found here.
On April 18, 2013, I successfully defended my Ph.D. dissertation at the Chicago Theological Seminary. The dissertation title is A Logotherapy Hermeneutic Developed and Applied to the Book of Job. I was struck by the warm reception Frankl's ideas were given by a group of biblical scholars and theologians who had had little exposure to Frankl outside the reading of the dissertation. I especially want to thank the Chicago Theological Seminary and my dissertation committee for allowing me to write on this topic.
A few months ago, on LogoTalk Radio #54, I talked a bit about what I mean by a "Logotherapy Hermeneutic." In short, logotherapists know that examples of Frankl's principles have been explained and interpreted through numerous books, texts, and even movies. Although this has been a practice for some time, and is encouraged in the logotherapy curriculum, no theory as to how to interpret a story through a Franklian lens has ever been developed at a scholarly level. That is what this dissertation does, and that is what a Logotherapy Hermeneutic is -- a defined theory of textual interpretation based on Logotherapy. As such, it is closely related to what Frankl calls a "Special Existential Analysis."
The lecture that follows is my presentation to the Nineteenth World Congress on Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy in Dallas, Texas given on June 21, 2013. The lecture illustrates the application of a Logotherapy Hermeneutic to the Book of Job.
The handout given during the lecture can be found by following this link.
#56: The Russian Philosophical Heritage and its Impact on Franklian Philosophy – Presentation by Snezhana A. Zamalieva, Ph.D.
Presentation by Snezhana A. Zamalieva, Ph.D.
Snezhana A. Zamalieva, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist, business coach and President of the Maestro Temirkanov International Foundation for Cultural Initiatives (Международный Фонд Культурных Инициатив Маэстро Темирканова). She graduated from St. Petersburg State University with a master's degree in sociology in 1996 and received her MBA in 2003. Later, she graduated from the East European Institute for Psychoanalysis with a master's degree in psychology. In 2012 she earned her Ph.D. from the Philosophy Department of St. Petersburg State University. Dr. Zamalieva also completed the program in Franklian Psychology offered by the Viktor Frankl Institute of Logotherapy, in Texas, by distance learning.
Dr. Zamalieva lectured at the Nineteenth World Congress on Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy in Dallas, Texas on June 21, 2013. Here, she presents an overview of Russian philosophy for her international audience and then discusses the influence of Russian philosophy, especially Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy, on the development of Viktor Frankl's thought.
Next week at World Congress XIX on Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy: Inspiring Meaning-Centered Living in Diverse Disciplines, Cultures and Wisdom Traditions, I have the privilege of presenting From Turmoil to Transcendence: The Book of Job and the Will to Wisdom based on my recently completed PhD dissertation on logotherapy and hermeneutics. During that presentation, I intend to outline what a logotherapy hermeneutic is, and then engage logotherapy in a dialogue with the Biblical Book of Job. I find the discoveries both about the Book of Job and about logotherapy to be quite startling.
Spiral bound, paper-only copies of the dissertation will also be available at the World Congress bookstore for $20.00. There are only 15 copies available, so I'll accept pre-orders by email to logotalk@gmail.com.
In this podcast, I share a bit of background on what a hermeneutic is, and what it has to do with logotherapy. I also talk about types of hermeneutics, as well as postmodernism, and explore how Frankl's theory fits with those constructs. Most of this material will not be part of the presentation next week, and both this episode and the presentation are free-standing, but listening to this episode before the presentation will give those who attend a fuller understanding of the overall project.
Ann V. Graber is Fellow, Professor of Pastoral Logotherapy, and Director of the Graduate Center for Pastoral Logotherapy at the Graduate Theological Foundation. This educational initiative is the first of its kind by a graduate-level institution focused specifically upon the pastoral character of the theory and practice of Viktor Frankl's logotherapy being offered to ministry professionals.
Growing up in Europe, Ann Graber received most of her primary, secondary, and initial post-secondary education in Austria. Later she continued her higher education in the U.S. Upon earning the Diplomate in Logotherapy credential, she joined the international faculty of the Viktor Frankl Institute of Logotherapy and participated in developing a comprehensive curriculum in Franklian Psychology/Logotherapy in the English language. She also initiated and directed the Institute's Distance Learning Program that has attracted students interested in logotherapy from every continent. A life-time member of the Viktor Frankl Institute, Dr. Graber serves as liaison between the Institute and the Foundation.
In 2002, after completing her Ph.D. studies at the Graduate Theological Foundation, Dr. Graber was invited to join the Foundation faculty. She has taught Foundation Seminars and Institutes on Viktor Frankl's logotherapy on-site, as well as E-tutorials, telephone tutorials, and residential tutorials. A frequent presenter at regional and international conferences, Dr. Graber has received numerous awards through the years. Her articles have been published in Foundation Theology: Faculty Essays for Ministry Professionals, The International Forum for Logotherapy, A Chrysalis Reader, and other publications. Some of her work has been translated (whole or in part) into foreign languages. In 2009, the Graduate Theological Foundation awarded the degree of Doctor of Divinity honoris causa to Ann V. Graber in recognition of distinguished service and internationally recognized scholarship in Viktor Frankl's logotherapy. When the Foundation decided to establish the Graduate Center for Pastoral Logotherapy in 2012, Dr. Graber was honored to be asked to serve as its Director.
Dr. Graber and the Graduate Theological Foundation have announced a new course taught by Professor Graber: Near Death Experiences and their Life-Transforming Impact. The primary objective of the course is to help lessen the fear of death and dying. It will be offered as either a telephone- or an electronic-tutorial.

I regard these writings as histories consisting of mingled truth and fiction, and while I admire and cherish much of what I believe to have been the moral teaching of Jesus himself, I consider the system of doctrines built upon the facts of his life . . . to be most dishonorable to God and most pernicious in its influence on individual and social happiness.

Should Julian Assanje extradited to the United States by Britain and sentenced as expected, it will be a blow to all citizens in constitutional democracies. (AFP)

Julian Assange, defender of our freedoms, is facing colossal injustice
by Bert Olivier 26 September 2020 26 September 2020
In her ground-breaking book on the effects of technology on our ways of living – Alone Together – Sherry Turkle discusses the fact that young people who cherish the freedom that the internet has given them, don't seem to be perturbed by their online exposure to state and corporate scrutiny, that is, their lack of privacy. Moreover, they feel impotent and resigned in the face of such power to invade one's privacy.
She continues by contrasting the present situation with the notorious McCarthy era in American history: "As the McCarthy era swirled about them, my grandparents were frightened. From Eastern European backgrounds, they saw the McCarthy hearings not as a defense of patriotism but as an attack on people's rights. Joseph McCarthy was spying on Americans, and having the government spy on its citizens was familiar from the old world. There, you assumed that the government read your mail, which never led to good. In America, things were different.
"I lived with my grandparents as a young child in a large apartment building. Every morning, my grandmother took me downstairs to the mailboxes. Looking at the gleaming brass doors, on which, she noted, 'people were not afraid to have their names listed, for all to see,' my grandmother would tell me, as if it had never come up before. 'In America, no one can look at your mail. It's a federal offense. That's the beauty of this country.' From the earliest age, my civics lessons at the mailbox linked privacy and civil liberties. I think of how different things are today for children who learn to live with the idea that their email and messages are shareable and unprotected. And I think of the internet guru at the Webby awards who, citing Foucault with no apparent irony, accepted the idea that the internet has fulfilled the dream of the panopticon and summed up his political position about the net as follows: 'The way to deal is to just be good.'
"But sometimes a citizenry should not simply 'be good.' You have to leave space for dissent, real dissent. There needs to be technical space (a sacrosanct mailbox) and mental space. The two are intertwined. We make our technologies, and they, in turn, make and shape us."
My reason for quoting Turkle so extensively is that she casts light on what democracy entails as far as one's privacy (and by implication, other democratic rights) is concerned — privacy is easily, and resignedly relinquished in "panoptical" cyberspace, as she notes. The term "panopticon" was coined by Jeremy Bentham in the 19th century to refer to the kind of prison building where warders have constant visual access to inmates in their cells, and Michel Foucault used this as a motif to show that today, we live in a "panoptical society", where sophisticated technology enables those in power to keep us under constant surveillance.
And it is this intrusion into our privacy by the state (in the guise of the National Security Agency [NSA] in the United States, for example), as well as incriminating secrets kept by the state from us, that whistle-blowers such as Edward Snowden and Julian Assange of Wikileaks have courageously exposed, to their democratic credit (see, for instance, this video, revealed by Wikileaks, of the American military shooting civilians in Iraq), but simultaneously to their personal detriment.
Both have become refugees as a result, and in Assange's case, a prisoner after he was seized from the Ecuadorian embassy in London. Assange is facing imminent trial in Britain, and could be extradited to the US, where he would probably be imprisoned for life after rendering a service to us ordinary people by exposing dark secrets on the part of the American state and military. That would be a colossal injustice.
Not surprisingly, therefore, a growing list of more than 160 current and former world leaders, ministers and parliamentarians are calling for an end to Assange's persecution in an open letter to the British government. Former president of Brazil and also erstwhile political prisoner, Lula da Silva, had this to say: "… If the democrats of the planet Earth, including all journalists, all lawyers, all unionists and all politicians have no courage to express themselves in defence of Assange, so that he is not extradited, it means we have a lot [of] democrats out there who are liars."
I have written on both Assange and Snowden here before and I feel constrained to do so again, given the dire position in which Assange finds himself.
One thing is clear, however: Assange has done nothing wrong. Instead, he has only exercised his right to freedom of expression, in the process indirectly upholding the rights of everyone — you and me included — in the so-called democracies of the world. It is generally well-known that he published documents supplied to him by Chelsea Manning when the latter was an intelligence analyst in the US Army in Afghanistan and Iraq, which means that he did not directly spy on American military activities. Yet, incongruously, he has been charged under the US Espionage Act, and even more absurdly, for publishing accurate information.
It is no secret that this persecution of the Wikileaks founder by the US is motivated by a desire for revenge on a man who, together with a number of the world's leading newspapers, exposed atrocious war crimes committed by US personnel in Afghanistan and Iraq. But the point to remember is that, should he be extradited to the US by Britain and sentenced as expected, implicitly it would be a blow to all citizens in constitutional democracies. This is because it will set a precedent that any government, including ours, could appeal to for charging and sentencing their own citizens who stand accused of espionage, or treason, for merely practising their constitutional, democratic right to freedom of expression.
As Slavoj Žižek puts it, drawing the appropriate connections between the powers pursuing Assange and those same forces which are guilty of other unforgivable actions: "…very few seem to take his situation seriously, with an awareness that our own fate is at stake in his case. The forces which violate his rights are the forces which prevent the effective battle against global warming and the pandemic. They are the forces that ensure the pandemic is making the rich even richer and hitting the poor hardest. They are the forces which ruthlessly exploit the pandemic to assert their control over our social and digital space, regulating and censoring it at our expense — the forces which protect us, but also deny us our own freedom".
Žižek also hints at the possibility that, if Assange — whose health is allegedly in a parlous state in prison — should die, or (which is almost the same) vanish into an American prison for the rest of his life, he would in all probability attain the status of a martyr. And we all know what that implies: in death martyrs are even stronger than they were when alive.
In Žižek's words: "…he will die in order to live in all of us. This is the message we all must deliver to those who have held him: if you kill a man, you create a myth which will continue to mobilise thousands".
What Assange has already done for citizens of the world is beyond valuable; he has been a champion for our freedom, and therefore deserves to live and to be set free, so that he can be reunited with his partner, Stella Morris, and their two children. The latter were apparently conceived in the Ecuadorian embassy in London when Morris, a lawyer, visited him during the long years he spent there. To me this is a small consolation: that this courageous man enjoyed at least some (presumably pleasurable) moments in the space where he was obliged to hide from his persecutors.

Because Bert knew very little, Philosophy turned out to be right up his alley, as it were, because of Socrates's teaching, that the only thing we know with certainty, is how little we know. Armed with this 'docta ignorantia', Bert set out to teach students the value of questioning, and even found out that one could write cogently about it, which he did during the 1980s and '90s on a variety of subjects, including an opposition to apartheid. In addition to Philosophy, he has been teaching and writing on his other great loves, namely, nature, culture, the arts, architecture and literature. In the face of the many irrational actions on the part of people, and wanting to understand these, later on he branched out into Psychoanalysis and Social Theory as well, and because Philosophy cultivates in one a strong sense of justice, he has more recently been harnessing what little knowledge he has in intellectual opposition to the injustices brought about by the dominant economic system today, to wit, neoliberal capitalism. His motto is taken from Immanuel Kant's work: 'Sapere aude!' ('Dare to think for yourself!') In 2012 Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University conferred a Distinguished Professorship on him.

Transparency in demonetisation would have been instrument of
Updated: Tue, Oct 10, 2017
Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today defended the government for maintaining secrecy over demonetisation before its announcement, saying transparency in this case would have been the "greatest instrument of fraud".
Jaitley, who is on a week-long visit to the US to attend the annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, said that announcing this major initiative in advance could have resulted in people buying gold, diamond and land and going through various kinds of transactions with the cash they had.
"Transparency is a very nice word. But transparency in this case (of demonetisation) would have been the greatest instrument of fraud, Jaitley told students of the Columbia University in New York.
The finance minister was responding to a question that why Prime Minister Narendra Modi kept the demonetisation plan a closely guarded secret with only a handful of top officials privy to the move.
"Secrecy was the essence of that decision making (process). I think, one of the greatest success of demonetisation was that the prime minister and the team -- obviously the RBI was involved, the finance minister was involved kept it a closely guarded secret," he said.
"Otherwise in a process where a decision is taken, alternate currency is printed, thousands of people involved in the printing do not know why they are doing it, the currency is collected, tabulated and sent to the currency chest and one has to be ready with the alternate currency the moment it is demonetised and still we were able to keep it a closely guarded secret," he said.
Emphasising that the implementation of demonetisation was a "success", Jaitley said, "There were no single public unrest in its immediate aftermath."
"This was the largest ever currency replacement exercise.
There was inconvenience. Television reporters went and provoked people outside the banks, but still people said that though they were feeling the pinch of it, it was a good move and they support it," the minister said.
Demonetisation had a lot of popular support, Jaitley said, adding that as a result of its implementation the government has been able to manage a large part of the cash currency.
"Digital transactions have doubled. A large number of people have joined the tax net," he said.
On Goods and Services Tax, he said that it has been the "smoothest possible transfer" from one taxation system to the other.
He said that the GST which has been by and large running smoothly would throw up situations which are not anticipated.
"These are challenges which a new system throws up," he said, noting that after the GST came into force they realised that there was no provisions for exemption, and only for refunds.
"The exporters refund was taking a lot of time and their capital was being blocked. It was a legitimate demand and this was immediately rectified," he added.
"Narrow base was the second challenge thrown up. After the first two months of deposits we realised that 95 per cent of the GST has been paid by only 400,000 accesses. So, it is only the organised sector which is paying the substantial part," he said.
"The bottom base has to expand but the tax component coming from them is relatively less," he said, adding that there was an effort to reduce the compliance burden on smaller ones and trying alternate means to get them in the tax net.
"It is the lesson we learnt in the first two months, he said.
GST he said is a common taxation system, which will allow a free flow of goods and commodities across the country.
"Building a political consensus on it was difficult," he acknowledged.
"At the end of the day, I will give full credit to also the states in India, which realised that they will be the eventual beneficiaries, he said.
"And therefore even when their parent political parties were talking a different language, the state governments all acted in tandem. One after the other each one of them started supporting. The result was very obvious, we could pass the constitutional amendment, we could pass the multiple legislations," he said.

I picked it up and listened to a cheerful woman tell me that I was depressed. There was a good chance I was gaining weight. I would need to revisit the lab to make sure. Oh and could I cut back on the coffee?
That was a week ago. I laughed it off. I've been gaining a steady 5 pounds per year. Which I'm pretty sure I can chalk up to the sugar in my coffee and the bad pastry habit I'm struggling with. I get that we are living in a season without sunlight to nourish our souls but it can't be that bad, can it? People live here and you never hear anything bad happening to them. I mean if there was a rampant vitamin D deficiency, we would know about it. Europeans are notorious for health and wellness spas. Wouldn't we have heard something about a Sunlight Spa by now? Seriously. If that's really a thing, please let me know so I can ask my doctor to change my prescription or give me a referral!
At first I tried to follow the well meaning woman's instructions. But somehow depriving me of coffee in the morning only decreased the likelihood of being functional. It also increased the intensity and amount I felt I needed to drank in the afternoon to make it for it.
I discovered that if I wanted to avoid being an irritated zombie I need to nip it in the bud with coffee and lots of sugar first thing in the morning. That first sip in the morning is everything I need to help me make sense of myself and get my act together!
That and taking ten minutes each day to appreciate the little things helped.
1. Last week a friend hooked me up with a copy of People I Like to Punch in the Throat. It's a book I've always meant to read but never got around to until it wound up in my hands! Perfect mood buster.
2. I have a couple of friends who are Food Truck Aficionados. While scoping out the latest in tantalizing treats one of them came across an awesome pink unicorn sticker from Turbo Bao. Made my day!
3. The week started off with Lil Man's birthday. I worried for about a month that I wasn't doing enough. Probably because I was organizing photos and came across the neat cakes and parties thrown for him in the past. It didn't help that I follow several fancy cake businesses that remind me that I could be doing more… if they weren't booked for the week/weekend that I needed a cake. Then I remember how much works goes into them and how much of it ends up in the trash. I decided to let him take the lead. In the end we kept it simple. Despite burning down the birthday banner on his cake or finding out that maybe one of the cakes wasn't suitable for children, he loved it. Winning.
Picked up 2 cakes at Globus for an easy birthday win for Lil Man. Didn't take a close look, one is a toasted almond pudding creme cake…the other looked like a hazelnut creme torte. Turns out it's an IRISH CREME torte with hazelnuts. So for the first time ever we have a cake for the kids and a cake for adults, but I didn't invite any of my friends so I guess I'm having cake for breakfast for the next week! Winning! Woot!
4. The next day a friend who went with me to my graduation in Atlanta a couple years ago re-shared the video from her timeline. Totally made my day remembering that I actually did important things. I did it. I won my race.
5. I don't know why TED talks inspire me. Maybe it's something to do with being intellectually stimulated. Maybe before Humans of New York, this was insight into humanity that I connected with. Either way, Shonda Rhimes: My year of saying yes to everything, hit the spot this week.
6. This week the blog article that inspired me the most was Why Family Traditions Matter (Plus 15+ Ideas To Get You Started) from Mommypotamus. I've tried most of these thing in the past and I never really saw them as traditions per say. The one I like the most? The Happiness Jar.
7. There is some universal algorithm that seems to sense I love unicorns. So this week it was these Unicorn dipped strawberries. Too much work but if I saw this at a sweet shop I would be all over it!
Regaining consciousness between these winks and a steaming brew, I crawled out of my cranky zombie brain and realized that we haven't gone anywhere in the last 4 weeks. Either because the sun wasn't inviting us out or because someone was under the weather. Maybe that's why I'm sluggish. These crazy heaters have cooked my brain and the house is sabotaging me, telling me there is so much to do at home… when in reality I'm wanderlust deprived!
Maybe all I really need is to find a caffeine anonymous self help group! Preferably one that likes to meet at an outside patio cafe. Maybe convince someone with a camera to get on the train with me and get off at a random stop, just to see what's there!
OR, Maybe heading to the lab to figure out if there is something to this doom and gloom of winter blues is a good idea after all.
In the meantime what kind of winks keep you going?

Australia women win record fifth World T20 title; beat India by 85 runs in the final
By Anurag MallickPublished on 8 March 2020 10:35 AM GMT
Hyderabad: The Indian women's cricket team's dream run came to an end as they lost the all-important final to four-time champions Australia at Melbourne by 85 runs on Women's Day.
Team India were playing their first-ever final of the T20 World Cup as they directly qualified to the final as they topped the Group-A with 4 wins out of 4 games. Australia beat South Africa in a rain-affected thriller by 5 runs to make it to the final.
It was again set to be a repeat of the first match as India and Australia locked horns in the final. Australia won the toss and elected to bat first against a formidable Indian bowling line-up.
Although, the tables turned completely towards Australia as the destructive opening duo of Alyssa Healy and Beth Mooney hit the Indian bowlers all around the park. Whenever Harmanpreet Kaur tried something new, Australians made sure they had an answer to it. Healy in the process brought up her fifty in the final, in front of her husband and Australian cricketer, Mitchell Starc. She continued her dominance as the duo put up an opening stand of 115. Healy then got out for 75 as the stage was all set for a big total.
Although India were able to pick wickets with Deepthi Sharma picking 2 in an over, Australia found some way or the other to score runs. They ended up scoring 184/4 in their 20 overs.
India had a record total of 185 to chase down in order to be crowned the World T20 Champions for the very first time.
They had a shaky start as India's 16-year-old superwoman couldn't come to India's rescue this time. She got out for 2. This only lead to a flurry of wickets as none of the Indian batters could find the sweet spot of their willows. Wicket-keeper Taniya Bhatia went off the field due to a concussion after being hit on the head.
The Indian Skipper celebrating her 31st birthday too couldn't save the team from trouble as the situation only worsened.
Deepthi Sharma top-scored with 33 as India bundled out for 99. The Australian women then created history as they were crowned the World T20 Champions for a record 5th time. The occasion was even more special as today marks the International Women's Day.
Alyssa Healy was adjudged the player of the match for her destructive 75 on top of the order whereas her fellow opening partner Beth Mooney was named the player of the tournament for her 259 runs, the most by any in a single edition of the World T20.

National News News NFL NFL Combine NFL Draft
Oakland Raiders Las Vegas, Derek Carr, Jon Gruden Spending Forced Khalil Mack Trade
This post was filed under: National News,News,NFL,NFL Combine,NFL Draft
blog, news, vlog, World News, Zennie Abraham
Oakland News Now – The Oakland Raiders trade of Khalil Mack to the Chicago Bears and for two 2019 NFL Draft 1st round picks, should come as no surprise considering the Silver and Black couldn't afford him. The Raiders, working under the self-levied fiscal gut punch of the expense of relocating to Las Vegas and of signing Derek Carr and Head Coach Jon Gruden to a guaranteed contract worth $100 million, may have budgeted to give Khalil Mack an offer, but had no intention of getting him a block-buster deal.
The Raiders sent that signal with the "Moneyball" NFL Draft strategy they used for the 2018 NFL Draft. Look at Maurice Hurst and Arden Key and Kolton Miller, to name a few: two giant talent players that were sure-fire first rounders in Hurst and Key, but health and off the field concerns had them drop in the Draft, and into the waiting arms of the cheapo Raiders. Miller? He was the target of the Raiders after they traded not up but down to get him. Why? To save money – and because they didn't have the cash to have a normal NFL Draft.
The Las Vegas Stadium expense is such that, by my estimate, the Raiders are look at least a $500 million deficit in stadium net operating income, unless they can secure a naming rights agreement at least that large, or if not, then at $400 million. Moreover, the Raiders need to secure $1 billion in sponsorships overall, and because of the need to pay back the Bank of America line-of-credit, and pay for the cost to run the stadium on an annual basis. The Raiders have to prove they can match or go beyond the Atlanta Falcons $1 billion in sponsorships for Mercedes Benz Stadium – something the organization has not done.
The Raiders are in trouble. In addition to those expenses, the team was looking at a really high rent at the Coliseum, and no other place to go that they could afford to play at before Las Vegas. The Oakland Alameda County Coliseum Board and Executive Director did the Raiders a favor by reducing the level of rent to pay in exchange for high-dollar donations to Oakland non-profits. That is why the Raiders stepped forward to help the Oakland Public Schools maintain their sports program. No, the School District didn't know that; they were like the proverbial hiker on the side of the road desperate for a ride out of the desert – the Raiders happened to drive by.
But I digress. From all sides, the Raiders are looking at spending and revenue requirements they can't meet as of now. Much of the problem is not just of their own decisions, but deal making – or lack of. Want an example of what I mean? Look at how Dallas Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones got a $30 million sponsorship deal with Pepsi and Nike in 1995 – that was to pay for getting the services of Deion Sanders. Why couldn't the Raiders make some kind of deal like that with Apple or some Bay Area tech company? That's a question that has to be asked – even if the Raiders don't answer it.
The Raiders need money. The thing is, losing Khalil Mack will cost them more money in lost merchandise revenue. The only way around that problem is to win, and at this point, the Oakland Raiders better run the table. If they can. Many are betting they can't – and will have a losing season.
