Al Zucaro has been the CEO of Old Republic International Corporation (NYSE:ORI) since 1990. This analysis aims first to contrast CEO compensation with other companies that have similar market capitalization. After that, we will consider the growth in the business. And finally we will reflect on how common stockholders have fared in the last few years, as a secondary measure of performance. This process should give us an idea about how appropriately the CEO is paid.
How Does Al Zucaro's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
According to our data, Old Republic International Corporation has a market capitalization of US$6.3b, and pays its CEO total annual compensation worth US$2.6m. (This figure is for the year to 2017). While this analysis focuses on total compensation, it's worth noting the salary is lower, valued at US$912k. When we examined a selection of companies with market caps ranging from US$4.0b to US$12b, we found the median CEO compensation was US$6.3m.
A first glance this seems like a real positive for shareholders, since Al Zucaro is paid less than the average compensation paid by similar sized companies. However, before we heap on the praise, we should delve deeper to understand business performance.
You can see a visual representation of the CEO compensation at Old Republic International, below.
Is Old Republic International Corporation Growing?
Over the last three years Old Republic International Corporation has grown its earnings per share (EPS) by an average of 5.6% per year (using a line of best fit). It saw its revenue drop -3.9% over the last year.
I would argue that the lack of revenue growth in the last year is less than ideal, but the improvement in EPS is good. These two metric are moving in different directions, so while it's hard to be confident judging performance, we think the stock is worth watching. It could be important to check this free visual depiction of what analysts expect for the future.
Has Old Republic International Corporation Been A Good Investment?
Boasting a total shareholder return of 37% over three years, Old Republic International Corporation has done well by shareholders. This strong performance might mean some shareholders don't mind if the CEO were to be paid more than is normal for a company of its size.
It looks like Old Republic International Corporation pays its CEO less than similar sized companies.
Al Zucaro receives relatively low remuneration compared to similar sized companies. And the returns to shareholders were great, over the last few years. So, while it might be nice to have better EPS growth, on our analysis the CEO compensation is quite modest. Shareholders may want to check for free if Old Republic International insiders are buying or selling shares.

William Penn Brown (1841-1929), was born on December 12, 1841, in Assam, India, son of Rev. Nathan Brown, Jr., (1807-1886), a missionary native of Vermont and Eliza Whitney Ballard (1807-1871), a native of Massachusetts. His early years were lived with his missionary parents in Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan.
Fig. 2. Orrin W. Simons writes about William P. Brown and the origins of stamp collecting and dealing in America published in his monthly column in Boys Life, November (1924) : 58. Later Alvin Fay Harlow (1875-1963), Paper Chase : The Amenities of Stamp Collecting (Henry Holt and Company, 1940), recounts the origins of stamp collecting and dealing as well.
He is considered the first American stamp dealer who began in 1859, though he considered himself second to James Brennan. He was a dear friend of John Walter Scott and introduced him to philately and in 1860 helped him with finances sufficient enough to open a stamp business.
In 1859, at City Hall Park, New York City, William P. Brown began to sell postage stamps at a stand. He was inspired by previously selling the foreign stamps mailed to him on envelopes from foreign correspondents to the postal clerks who wanted to collect them. They were not alone. There was an interest in the general population. Crowds used to gather in the corridors of the old Post Office, Nassau and Liberty Streets, to buy and exchange stamps. It is possible that to avoid congestion in a public building the crowds were asked to move outside and conduct their affairs off the premises. Some have recently speculated that George Hussey, owner of the Special Message Post, and one of his letter carriers James Brennan were the first two stamp dealers in America. It may be. It seems virtually impossible to ascertain as to the day and hour who was the very first stamp dealer in America. In a more sober approach, without splitting hairs, it is safe to say that George Hussey, James Brennan, and William P. Brown began dealing about the same time. William P. Brown erected a small stand at the Park and sold postage stamps discovering the market and demand was bigger than one could have guessed. The rest is history.
In 1860, Brown expanded his business of stamp dealing to include a full array of U. S. and foreign coins, medals and tokens.

Fig. 4. A Fake Essex Letter Express local carrier stamp. Note the capital letters SX are not on the mast flag, but rather, below the ship in the sea.
Brown was a very clever man with a sense of humor. In 1862, Brown came into possession of a few Essex Letter Express local carrier stamps. In 1856, four letter carriers working for various local letter express companies decided to form their own company. They printed their private stamps but after selling all that had been printed they took the money and dissolved the company. However, there is a report that one or two of these local carrier stamps were found on covers that were delivered. So it seems the company dissolved the first week or so after making some deliveries. Brown came upon some of these unused local carrier stamps considered quite rare in 1862. A local stamp dealer who also ran his own postal letter delivery service "Special Message Post" named George Hussey asked Brown for one. Brown knew Hussey was a cheat and would give the stamp to his printer Thomas Wood to replicate for sales of forgeries of them. So Brown erased some of the waves of the sea below the ship. He also erased the letters SX off the mast flag. He then inscribed SX in the blank area of the sea. (See Fig. 4) With these alterations one can easily detect the Hussey forgeries (compare Figures 3 & 4).
In 1864, Brown was the American editor and John George Boal the U.K. editor of the London and New York Stamp Collectors Review, the first American philatelic journal. It only ran for two issues and some believe it never circulated due to problems with Boal.

He and his father Rev. Dr. Nathan Brown were members of the American Philological Society, New York.
In 1870 he lived with his parents and sister Elizabeth in Jersey City, New Jersey. Brown was an innovative pioneering curiosities, coin, and postage stamp dealer, and publisher of De Kuriositi Kabinet (Sept 1870 – Aug 1871), with orthography based on The American Philological Society changed title to Curiosity Cabinet which ran until October 1884; Tiffany No. 20. Kuriositi Kabinet was printed in some text that Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr., identifies as Old Saxon revived by the American Philological Society in the 1860's, a pseudo-precursor to Esperanto (1887).
In May 1871, he published the first report of a discovery of the New Haven, Connecticut postmaster's local stamp.

He exhibited the Charles Coster locals collection in August 1871.
Brown purchased 16,000 foreign coins from Mr. King of London cited in Mason's Coin and Stamp Collectors Magazine, Vol. V, August (1871) : 127,
Descriptive Price Catalogue of Government Postage Stamps for Sale by WPB, New York. 1st edit., March 1868, 2nd edit., Sept 1871, 3rd edit., 1872, 4th edit., 1873.
In 1876 he was located near City Hall Park and Park Row, in the Potter's World Building belonging to the former Massachusetts attorney, Orlando Bronson Potter (1823-1894), at Beekman and 145 Nassau Streets, New York.
In 1876 he lived at 145 Nassau Street, New York, New York and his shop was located 37 Park Row.
Brown was a donor in 1878 to the ANS library.

Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr., mentions visiting Brown's stamp & coin shop in the beginning of May, 1879 after stopping in at Bangs & Co., attending the Michael Moore coin auction sale catalogued by Ed Cogan. Apparently, during that visit he was given an advertisement from Brown to have Mason publish it in his next issue of Mason's Coin Collectors' Herald.
Fig. 8. Brown's advertisement selling Confederate paper money published in Mason's Coin Collectors' Herald, Vol. I, No. 1, June (1879) : 8b. This advertisement ran for several months. Brown offered a complete list of the different Confederate notes in one issue of his own publication, The Curiosity Cabinet. Notice of this was also made by Ed Frossard in Numisma, Vol. 3, No. 4, July, 1879. Courtesy Lupia Numismatic Library.
Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr., visited Brown in May 1880 climbing the steep and lengthy stairwell implying his office was on a high floor. Miss Ida Small was his clerk who ran the office when he was away.
E. F. Gambs, a coin and stamp dealer at St. Louis, Missouri, [later at San Francisco, California] wrote a letter to Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr., which he published in his magazine and titled the letter : "The 1802 Half Dime," Mason's Coin Collectors' Herald, Vol. I, No. 3, December (1879) : 26a-c. Gambs says he discovered the finest 1802 Half Dime in the country about October 1877. He wrote to both John W. Haseltine and William P. Brown sending them rubbings. Each replied informing him the same thing that the best price had was at the Ed Cogan auction of the E. Harrison Sanford sale on November 27, 1874 held at Bangs & Co., New York, realizing $47.50. Since Gambs was already a frequent customer of Brown he sent the coin to him on approval by registered mail specifying his lowest acceptable price. Brown promptly paid him the asking price of $25.00. Gambs said he was very pleased until he learned that Brown sold it at auction and realized $147.50. However, Brown graciously wrote to Gambs immediately after the sale and generously gave him an additional $25.00 in credit.
Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr., mentions seeing Brown as a bidder at the Smith coin auction sale held at Bangs & Co., New York on Tuesday, October 5, 1880.
Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr., mentions visiting Brown's stamp & coin shop in late April, 1881.

Brown became the secretary of the American Philological Society, New York.
Fig. 10. William P. Brown wrote De Kuriositi Kabinet on a principle of The American Philological Society purging language and culture of pagan notions. New York Tribune, Friday, January 2, 1882, page 2
His 4th floor office, Room 37, on Nassau Street, which he shared with a Mr. D. P. Lindsley, was destroyed by a fire that broke out at 10:12 pm on January 31, 1882 putting him out of business for a while.
On March 20, 1882, John Walter Scott, sold the 600 lots of coins remaining of the stock of William P. Brown from the fire. Scott wrote a "large and valuable assortment of American and foreign coins, the entire remainder of the stock saved from the great fire in the Porter building, the property of the well known dealer William P. Brown." "In many respects this is the most peculiar lot of coins ever offered at public auction."
In 1884 he relocated to 13 Ann Street, New York cited in J. M. Hubbard's Stamp Dealers of the World (1885). His first stamp auction catalog Catalogue of a Fine and Rare Collection of United States Stamps: Sale No. 1. (New York: C. C. Shelley, 1878) waived mail bid fees by introducing a novel way of bidding that allowed absentee bidders to place their bids through Bangs & Co., or William Erving without paying the 10 percent commission.
In 1885, Brown published Price Catalogue of US and Foreign Postage Stamps.
Fig. 11. Brown writing to the Chapman Brothers postmarked April 16, 1887, New York. Courtesy Lupia Numismatic Library, Special Collection, The Chapman Family Correspondence Archive.
In 1889 he ran a small display ad in McLean's Stamp Collectors' Guide (1889) : 56
In 1892 he wrote : "Philatelic Reminiscences" imitative of Mason's column on "Reminiscences of a Coin Collector".
His 'Philatelic Reminiscences' of 1892 were reprinted in the September 1987 Collectors Club Philatelist.
In the January 1895 issue of The Numismatist, we read from the classic essay of Augustus Goodyear Heaton, "The Tour Among the Coin Dealers," a succinct note about Brown :
"Going down Broadway, one finds in a third floor front room the latest location of Mr. W. P. Brown, a rather taciturn and bearded philosopher who is most actively occupied in stamps and publications, but has a coin stock which has for years proved worth occasional visits from alert collectors.
Brown's Sale No. 2 was published in 1897 and was a Vickery auction.

He was one of the founder-contributors to the Screen, Media and Cultures initative, and has also taught film music in the Music Faculty's masters programme. Before coming to Cambridge, he produced and composed electronic music for theatre, television, and, eventually, film, working with directors such as David Drury, Richard Eyre and Mike Radford. Research that he has directed in his Centre has explored the ways in which music can modulate activity in a film viewer's brain regions concerned with emotion and the interpretation of human action. Current research plans include the experimental exploration of the ways in which music and sound in film might function to shape the audience's collective experience of the cinematic world.

Meb Keflezighi earns his fourth Olympic berth at age 40
Admin 12:26 AM Marathon, Meb Keflezighi, Olympic, Sports

By Don Doxsie
Just when you think Meb Keflezighi is finished doing big things as a distance runner, he does something like this.
Keflezighi, who has been an icon for the Quad-City Times Bix 7 for more than a decade, added one more line to his legendary resume on Saturday by finishing second in the U.S. Olympic marathon trials and qualifying for the Olympics for the fourth time.
Galen Rupp, running his first marathon, won the race in the hottest conditions ever for the event. The official temperature was 66 degrees at the start — the previous record was 61 degrees in 1960 — and rose to 75 by the end of the race.
Keflezighi will be 41 by the time the Olympics are held in Rio de Janeiro this summer, making him the oldest American runner ever to compete in the Olympic marathon.
"It's an honor to represent the United States,'' he said. "Making my fourth Olympic team, I couldn't have done it without my family. I was cramping a bit early in the race but felt better a little after halfway."
Keflezighi, who was born in Eritrea but came to the U.S. at the age of 12, first ran the Bix 7 in 2002 and won the race that year and again in 2009. He has become a regular in the Davenport event and one of its biggest supporters. Bix 7 race director Ed Froehlich and assistant race director Dan Breidinger were in Los Angeles to cheer him on to victory.
Keflezighi first ran in the Olympics in 2000, finishing 12th in the 10,000. He was the silver medalist in the marathon in 2004 and was fourth in the marathon in 2012. He became the first American in 31 years to win the Boston Marathon in 2014 but has said several times in recent years that he was likely to retire.
He decided to take one more shot to allow his children to have the experience of seeing their father run in the Olympics. He carried an American flag and pumped his fist to the crowd as he ran the final stretch, then was embraced by his wife Jordana and three daughters after crossing the finish line.
He ran with Rupp for much of the way Saturday before the 29-year-old Oregon native pulled away to win easily in two hours, 11 minutes, 10 seconds.
"Running with him, hopefully we gave the crowd some excitement,'' Keflezighi said. "He gave a great effort and was great at the end.''
Rupp won a silver medal in the 10,000 meters in the 2012 Olympics and may attempt to run both events in Rio. The Olympic 10,000 is scheduled for Aug. 13 with the marathon following on Aug. 21.
"I think the double in Rio is certainly possible," Rupp said.
"The first step was obviously to qualify for this. I didn't want to get ahead of myself. Everything up until this was all about the marathon."
Jared Ward finished third in the men's competition to grab the final U.S. Olympic berth.
Amy Cragg pulled away late to win the women's division in 2:28:27 with Desiree Linden and Shalane Flanagan getting the other two spots.
"Four years ago, it was pretty heartbreaking finishing fourth," Cragg said. "I worked really, really hard for four years to move up one position (and make the team)."

The 2009 Munich MLD Family Conference is over. It was a great success with nearly 60 people representing families and research from across Europe. We have left the Munich overview page up so you can learn more about the conference.
Starting April 18th, you can find details about the June 2009 US MLD Family Conference in Philadelphia here.
Also, you can see the Munich conference videos by clicking here.
We're celebrating the start of 10 years of caring for MLD affected families with our first international MLD Family Conference March 13-14th, 2009 in Munich, Germany.
Please join us as we gather families and their MLD affected loved ones along with the world's leading MLD doctors, researchers, scientists, and caregivers for a weekend of fun, education, discussion, and compassion. There will be plenty of group and one-on-one time to meet the other families and the doctors. We want you to leave the meeting with new friends, new knowledge, and a practical inspiration with ideas to better care for your loved one.
After Februrary 12th, 2009 hotel space cannot be guaranteed and will be offered first come, first served.
We will be providing a staffed respite room for those affected with MLD so you can enjoy the presentations if your loved one needs time to rest or simply wants to have a better time with DVDs, art and other activities.
Our host hotel is the beautiful and modern four-star Sheraton Schwaig-Oberding conveniently located just 5 minutes south of the Franz Josef Strauss International Airport (Munich, MUC), is Germany's second largest airport, after Frankfurt, with about 34 million passengers a year. The hotel is well equipped for you and your MLD affected loved ones with full accessibility for wheelchairs. Your breaks, lunch Saturday and dinner both Friday and Saturday are included in the modest registration fees. Hotel guests also will enjoy the breakfast buffet. You will be responsible for transportation costs to the Munich airport.
Munich is the capital city of Bavaria and is located just 50km north of the Alps in Southern Germany. We will get a taste of Bavaria at a special dinner Saturday evening at the Erdinger Weißbräu, one of the region's most famous Bavarian style breweries.
A working agenda can be seen here.
Thank you to our grant providers (Shire HGT), sponsors (Mac's Team and Myelin Project) and service provider partners (Boinx Software), who through their support made this conference much more affordable for the attending families. We anticipate and want to thank the families who individually donated to support of our conference scholarship fund. The MLD Family Conference is not a fund-raiser for the MLD Foundation so you are only paying for direct costs.
Registration is now open - After Februrary 12th hotel space cannot be guaranteed and will be on a space available basis. The costs are outlined below. Please note that you will be responsible for your own travel arrangements and costs. Some scholarships will be available for those needing financial assistance.

Dealing with the harsh teenage responsibilities I face!!
Ember chuckled at Zarine's retort and muttered to herself, "we should get along just fine." Her expression shifted to concern as Manah began to answer their questions. There was something different about her, she was fearful and Ember was now leaning forward fully enthralled with the knight's words. At the end Ember offered a slight nod. "just don't loose your nerve in battle, I'd much prefer we all make it out alive. And if we die, let us die as heroes" She places a hand on Manah's shoulder and pats it in a attempt to comfort her. She leans back into her seat as Zarine states she's going to take a nap. "alright, Miss Manah if you need to rest I can keep an eye out for you both."
Ember entered the carriage behind Zarine and noticed as well that Manah wasn't looking at all like the person they saw yesterday. She shrugged this off to nerves as she took the seat across from Zarine. As she looked over at Zarine she couldn't help but notice her slight discomfort. With a chuckled she said "don't worry I don't bite." she grinned at this words before leaning back resting her hands behind her head. As the horses jerked the carriage forward she added her own questions to Zarine's. "I take it you knew and were close to the princess before right? What's this whole thing about her now being evil? Anything we should know about her or these 'monsters' she's turning town people into? And where are we going to first?" She shifted forward in her seat and looked at Manah inquisitively. The cyborg rarely left her questions unasked and preferred to know all the details of a mission before running in blindly. Some people were unbothered by this trait and others would get annoyed by it, she wondered how the two girls would react to this trait of hers. As her questions were answered she began to study one of her maps, looking at the towns and terrain of the area. Once she was satisfied having her questions answered she settled back into her seat and look out the window awaiting their arrival.
By the time the dull sunlight of the dawn had filtered through the inn's windows, Ember was already awake and preparing for the day. She had showered the night before and was now getting dressed and packed. Her ruck was filled with an assortment of supplies ranging from a tool box for making adjustments to her cybernetics to a journal and some maps of the area. As she made her way down the stairs she pulled her ruck onto her shoulders and ordered some food from one of the workers. After simple breakfast of black coffee, a slice of toast, and an apple she stood and was about to sit outside to wait for the other two ladies. But just as she placed her money on the counter she heard a voice mumble 'couldn't be bothered to wait?' and saw the mage making her way down the stairs and the soldier heading out the door. The cyborg smiled and followed after the two. She exited behind Zarine and fell in pace with the young woman offering her a quick "good morning." Manah had already taken off from the inn and Ember quickly began to scan the streets for her. The soldier's garb was easily distinguished from the clothing of the villagers. Ember tapped Zarine on the shoulder and then gestured toward Manah before increasing her pace towards her.
Hey guys sorry for the long wait! I was busy with tests last week, but I'm back now. I'll have a post up soon.
Ember saw the blonde girl shiver at the sight of her and causing Ember to stifle a laugh, it was quite often that she saw this reaction. She looked back toward the knight as she warned the two of dangers ahead. It had been a while since she actually took part in a dangerous mission and she was excited. 'Don't worry about the danger. Anything worth doing takes some effort yes?' Ember nodded at this in agreement. "you'll find that I am no yellow bellied fool who panics at the first scent of danger. I'd be happy to continue on with you." As she said this she gave a bow of her head in respect. "the name's Ember by the way, I think it's best to know the name of those fighting beside you." She turns on her heel and heads toward the Juniper Inn. Her heart was filled with excitement and she ended up spending the first few hours of the night preparing for the adventure ahead.
Hey guys sorry for the delay. Frontier's internet service went down through my town for some reason. I think I'm gonna play as Ember, she's one of my older ocs and I haven't done much with her. Since she's a mercenary she'll be one of the soldiers. I might bring in another evil character, but I'm not sure yet.
Sweet!! I just need to choose an oc for this and I'm set!
An assault of whispers came down on Ridge and he immediately took a step back. He leaned down to Kyouji and whispered, "Do you hear them? There's trapped souls here... Most places I've been to have been cleansed of them..." He walked forward again and tilted his head listening to what the voices were saying. The whispers were difficult to understand and Ridge's face contorted into confusion. He absentmindedly began to pace the throne room deep in thought. He hadn't even noticed the tendrils that had come to him from the throne. If he had he wouldn't have sat down on the throne. In the end it was his curiosity that trapped him, he wanted to know what secrets lied in the temple. He should have run. Should have escaped before his kind soul was corrupted. But he stayed because of his own curiousity.
His excitement was drawn to a halt as Kyouji grabbed a hold of him. He sheepishly smiled realizing he had gotten over excited like he always does and he quickly offered an apology. "I'm sorry Miss Kyouji I just tend to get a little excited from time to time." He laughed heartily before continuing, "and you've been here before so my excitement probably is bizarre considering you've gotten to explore this place already. Anyway let's go in shall we?" As Ridge began to walk through the open doors he reached down to Kyouji's hand, grasping it in his own and began to lead her into the dark temple.
Ridge was fascinated with this woman and followed her to the temple. The temple loomed over him and as he looked up at it his jaw dropped. The architecture of the building was fascinating and Ridge quickly walked past Kyouji to explore. "I have never gotten to explore a place like this! how old is this building? Have you ever been here before? Is there any artifacts inside? What about books?" The man was rambling at this point due to being overexcited. His eyes were bright and full of wonder. "Is there tablets? Is that where the spell is?"

Critique: TNT's 'Dallas' Episode 30 — 'D.T.R.'
March 26, 2014 by Chris Baker 24 Comments
Woman of the hour
Let's get this out of the way first: "D.T.R." stands for "define the relationship," as Christopher's new girlfriend Heather helpfully explains in the scene where they get to know each other better in the bar. I wasn't familiar with the expression until recently and neither were a lot of "Dallas" fans, judging by the reactions I'm seeing on Twitter. But no matter. This episode is really about the "Dallas" characters trying to dominate their relationships. Everyone is vying for control of everyone else, demonstrating once again that the real commodity on this show is power, not oil.
At the center of it all is Sue Ellen, a woman who spent years struggling to take charge of her own life. Now she's trying to reign in John Ross, not just because he's beginning to remind her of J.R., but also because he's beginning to remind her of herself. Sue Ellen sees her son becoming addicted to feeding his own ego, just like she's hooked on the booze inside her flask. This point is underscored in the scene where she tells John Ross that he's being "reckless" by cheating on Pamela. Sue Ellen might as well be describing the person she used to be, during her own self-destructive phase, before she became the much more functional alcoholic we see today.
John Ross ends this scene by accusing his mother of taking out on him her lingering anger toward J.R. "Guess what, Mama? I'm not J.R.," he says. These are surprising words coming from a young man who struts around wearing Daddy's wristwatch and belt buckle, but they show how John Ross has picked up another one of Sue Ellen's old habits: her penchant for denying the truth. Indeed, what fascinates me most about John Ross and Sue Ellen's relationship this season is how they're both borrowing different pages from J.R.'s playbook in their quest for the upper hand in their relationship. In the previous episode, John Ross showed he could treat Sue Ellen as cruelly as J.R. once did; in "D.T.R.," Sue Ellen blackmails McConaughey in a bid to undermine her son. J.R. Ewing lives on through the people he loved most.
But even without these allusions to our hero, Sue Ellen and John Ross's storyline is absorbing and effective. Much of this has to do with Linda Gray and Josh Henderson, who do remarkable work in "D.T.R." Gray enlivens every scene she's in through the sheer force of her presence; it's become cliché to say she lights up the screen each time she appears, but I can think of no better way to describe what she brings to this show. Henderson, in the meantime, is nothing less than outstanding: In his hands, John Ross has become dark and dangerous. It doesn't hurt that both actors receive wonderful material from scriptwriter Aaron Allen, who helps make the characters feel real and knowable. Strip away all the references to "fracking" and the "Arctic play" and it's easy to see this is the story of a mother trying to save her son from himself.
Allen — who also wrote "Let Me In," the episode where Harris stifles Emma's bid for independence — uses "D.T.R." to return to the power struggles within the Ryland family too. As John Ross points out, Emma is supposed to control Judith, who is supposed to control Harris, although it's hard to figure out who really runs the show. Here's what I find most interesting about these characters: As deceptive as they are, they use the truth to emotionally bludgeon each other. In "D.T.R.," when Ann declares her "role" at Southfork is to care for her loved ones, Emma reminds her mother that she "lied to her husband about my very existence." It's harsh, but is it inaccurate? Similarly, in the tense scene where Judith and Emma haggle over Harris's files, is Judith wrong when she tells Emma that she "degrades" herself by sleeping around?
The Rylands always give us plenty to ponder, but there's no questioning the quality of the actors' performances. Judith Light makes it clear Judith loves her rebellious granddaughter, while Emma Bell never lets us forget her character has vulnerabilities, no matter how wicked she behaves. I also love Brenda Strong, who knocks me out in the scene where Ann angrily kicks Emma off Southfork, although she's equally good when Ann warily welcomes her daughter home. It's also nice to see Steven Weber take another turn as the slick Governor McConaughey, as well as Todd Terry, who returns as hapless State's Attorney Peter Bedford, one of the last people to have the honor of being blackmailed by J.R. Ewing. Speaking of J.R.'s victims: The "D.T.R." scene where Cliff calls Pamela and tries to mend fences with her restores a shred of humanity to the character, but I mostly love the scene because it allows Ken Kercheval to revive his mantra from the second season: "I did not kill J.R.!"
There's much more to like about "D.T.R.," especially where Patrick Duffy is concerned. I love how cinematographer Rodney Charters, who doubles as this episode's director, gives us a shot of solemn, solitary Bobby on horseback watching the smug John Ross inspect the Southfork drill site. It makes Bobby's end-of-the-episode speech about upholding the Southworth traditions that much more poignant. It's also a kick to see Bobby and Sue Ellen in the back of the van, eavesdropping on McConaughey, as well as the big reveal at the press conference, when Bobby steps forward as the new railroad commissioner. (Between this scene and the one in "Playing Chicken" where Bobby steps out of Rhonda's car, Duffy is becoming "Dallas's" master of the grand entrance.)
"D.T.R.'s" use of the J.R. Ewing Bourbon bottle is also inspired: The revelation that the cork is bugged is the third season's best twist yet, but I also love how the bottle practically becomes a stand-in for J.R. himself. Gray has a Hagman-esque twinkle in her eye when Sue Ellen gives the bourbon to McConaughey at the top of the hour and reminds him that "good blackmail never sours." The twinkle is there at the end of the episode too, when Sue Ellen reveals the dirt on McConaughey and he slides the bottles across his desk toward her and says, "This is why politicians should never accept gifts — especially gifts with J.R.'s name on them."
The only thing missing from this scene is seeing J.R.'s smile, although I must say: Sue Ellen's sly grin is pretty wonderful too. Of course, that's always been true, hasn't it?

TNT's Dallas Scene of the Day: 'You Are a Worthless Creature' »
All the actors were brilliant in this episode and I believe Larry Hagman is in
heaven smiling proudly down on his Ewing family, especially on Linda and Josh!!
Loved it…loved it….I hang onto every one of Sue Ellen's words. She is a master. I hope that she continues to be one step ahead of John Ross. I'm a little concerned about that based on a scene from next week's episode. I hope that John Ross isn't trying to put his mother in rehab….but then again, Judith got sprung so if it happens, I think it will be a quick rehab. Bobby is indeed becoming the "white knight" and I can see him rescuing his sister in law. Can't wait until next week!
Great review as always. I love your spin and insightful commentary. Linda Gray is knocking it out of the park. Is there any doubt in your mind that next week we will all be talking about that explosive scene between JR3 and Sue Ellen? You should just post it now.
Brandon Childers says:
A tone else think harris and Anne are falling in love?
*anyone
Obviously that is what we are to believe could happen. Is it real? A red herring? Time will tell. But I'd say they are tellegraphing that is to be the next source of tension between Bobby and Ann one way or another.
I agree..there is no other reason why all of a sudden Harris thinks that Ann is a great mother. He is trying to get closer to her by the way of Emma. Wow…imagine how Bobby is going to feel…I think I read somewhere that Duffy said you aren't going to see Bobby and Ann have sex. He didn't say that Ann wasn't to have sex with Harris, did he?
I saw Anne and Harris hooking up since last season. It was clear Anne had the hots for him and then she clammed with her emotional expression. Bobby is going to be too busy to take care of Anne.
Sue Ellen was fantastic in this episode. This is some of the best writing for her character ever. A lot of great scenes but a few gripes. Funny that the governor was not surprised that Sue Ellen was asking him to side against her son. He must be used to dealing with those Ewings. I continue to appreciate badass Elena and Nicolas. Once upon a time John Ross used to treat Pamela as sweetly as Nicolas is treating Elena.. I'm willing to look past the flimsy reasons for her wanting revenge and her sudden personality change. The constant blackmail was repetitive. I have a question though. Why did John Ross urge Emma to stay on Southfork? He should be jumping up and down to get rid of her. Did he just say "I don't want to stop seeing you" as a ploy or does he mean it? Is he going to try to deprive her of the part of the arctic leases she asked for? Did she ask for a present from his honeymoon like a whiny 10 year old?
Pamela is such a great character, It's a shame she has been backburnered especially if we never get a season 4. Just the idea of her and Nicolas joining forces makes me jump up and down.
We will get a season 4. So far so good with the ratings. I can't see hem canceling the show if "Dallas" consistantly gets a million or so viewers in TNT's target audience.
I agree with you about Pamela. Great character.
Why can't Larry Hagman's son Preston come on as a character that will help the Ewings knock down that degenerate Barnes? Also, bring James Richard Beaumont-Ewing & J.R.'s son by Cally back. That evil trimuvate would sure bring a sucker punch to Clifford & his efforts to get out of jail. Cliff should C.B. in a Texas prison for murdering his grandkids I'd like to point out as Pamela Barnes Ewing Ewing knows her old man committed that crime. Plus Cliff would be much harder to control if on United States soil so the writing & the decption would only get better & better!
Luke Pegues says:
It was excellent. I loved that they are starting to film around Dallas and not just on South Fork. Linda Gray is on the money. I am glad that she is getting all of the lines JR would have gotten. She is delivering what we all wanted in season one and season 2. I could not ask for more. Emma being the new Holly Harwood is great. I love the way she let her mother and John Ross have it. I also loved how Judith took a moment and educated her grand daughter on men and the way they will treat you if you are the other woman. I can not wait for next weeks as John Ross tries to be his daddy and send his mother to the Sanitarium as his father did to Sue Ellen when she was pregnant. Awesome and continues to pick up and deliver on all cylinders.

Sorry Al: Honest Abe Beat You To It (Not)
Once again, the post-first-verify-later mentality left some news outlets sucking shoe leather.
This one tops the alleged claim by Al Gore that he invented the Internet. (He didn't, by the way.) Earlier this week, a blogger named Nate St. Pierre posted a lengthy tome about how Abraham Lincoln invented Facebook.
St. Pierre wrote that, on a day-off visit to the late president's museum in Springfield, Ill., he found an 1845 patent application in Lincoln's name. In it, Abe suggested a single-page newspaper tailored to the individual reader, with status updates and comments from friends—in short, a print version of today's massively successful social media forum.
The story took off, getting shared thousands of times on Facebook and showing up on news media sites such as Forbes and ZDNet. It seemed like yet another reason to admire one of our greatest presidents.
The problem is, the tale was a complete hoax.
Forbes quickly yanked the article. Other outlets updated the story once the hoax was revealed. St. Pierre later posted a follow-up in which he explains why he penned the prank—a combination of playing the jokester and pointing out the media's willingness to jump on stories without checking facts.
While one can debate whether a joke like that is appropriate, I do think St. Pierre makes a good point about the evolution of news reporting—from the much-cited mindset, "If your mother says she loves you, check it out first," to the current "be first or be irrelevant." Copy editors were among the first to be axed when newspapers started to contract. Reporters are posting stories directly to the web, often without editorial oversight, and often with incorrect facts and glaring grammatical errors.
Of course, there's no going back to the old way, where reporters and editors had the time and resources to verify every detail of their source material. And to be sure, most media outlets do make efforts to check their facts, and to make corrections quickly when required. But the sad reality is, so long as we live in a world where news and information are in immediate demand, we'll see more examples like the Lincoln ruse.
Therein lies a lesson for those of us in public relations, too. We need to be sure our facts are absolutely correct and clear when we work with journalists. They're under enormous pressure to post their stories quickly; we can help by being credible, accurate sources.
And for the record: There is no truth to the claim that Honest Abe also invented LinkedIn. As in "Abraham LinkedIn." (Thank you, thank you, I'm here all week….)

2nd Lieutenant Arthur George Richard WHITWORTH
Northumberland Fusiliers
24th (Tyneside Irish) Battalion
Attached: 19th Battalion (2nd Tyneside
Pioneers)
(Formerly: Private 6633 28th Battalion,
London Regiment [Artists' Rifles])
30 March 1918 - Died of wounds
DOULLENS COMMUNAL CEMETERY
EXTENSION No.1
Grave Number:
III. A. 17.
Arthur was born on 23 January 1897 at Fordham, Cambridgeshire, the only son of Julius Harry (Grocer) and Selina Elton (née Rice) Whitworth. The 1901 Census (RG 13/1757) shows the family living at 'The Lodge', Worlington, Suffolk and Arthur had one older sister, Nora E. In 1911 (Census RG 14/9086) the family were at the same address and Arthur was at School.
Julius and Selina were married in the September quarter 1894, in Gloucester, where Census returns indicate Selina was born. Julius originated from Lincoln, but the report of Arthur's death in the Buxton Advertiser (see below) clearly indicates that at that time they were living at Wiseman House, Marlborough Road, Buxton.
Arthur was a pupil at The Perse School, Cambridge, and the photo (right) shows him in his Rugby kit. In October
1914, at the early age of seventeen, went up to Downing College, Cambridge. The photo above right is from a
group photo of Arthur and his fellow undergraduates.
He was in residence for four terms, after which he went into munitions production, before enlisting. By the time of
the CWGC entry the family had moved again to "Strathray," Birling Road, Tunbridge Wells.
The 'Register of Soldiers' Effects' shows that after Arthur's death an amount of £96 3s 5d (£96.17) was transferred
from his accounts - presumably to his parents. (This is equivalent to about £4300 today - 2016) Probate Records
show that in his Will Arthur left £235 2s 7d [£235.13} to his father, Julius. [The value of this today - 2016 - is about
£10,500.]
Arthur originally enlisted as Private 6633 in the Artists Rifles (28th Battalion, The London Regiment). If he spent 4 terms at Cambridge this would suggest he enlisted early 1916 - The Buxton Advertiser account of his death (4th May 1918) suggests he joined up in February 1916. The 28th had arrived in France at the end of October 1914 and became an Officers Training Corps (OTC) at Bailleul and in April 1915 it moved to St Omer. In November the 1st/28th and 2nd/28th were merged and the battalion was sent to the front at the end of June 1917, allocated to the 190th Brigade, 63rd (RN) Division.
Published details state that Arthur went out France in 1917 where, according to 'The Cambridge Review' of 9th May 1918, '…he proved himself a most capable and popular officer…'. In 1917 the 24th (Tyneside Irish) Battalion fought in the The First and Second Battles of the Scarpe and the The Battle of Arleux during the Arras Offensive. In August they were involved in the fighting at Hargicourt and on the 10th the Battalion amalgamated with 27th Battalion to form the 24/27th Battalion. It is not known when Arthur was attached to the 19th Battalion.
At one point, Arthur was evacuated to hospital suffering from exposure brought about by being in a shell hole under heavy fire for two days and nights. Following his recovery, he returned to France.
On 28th March 1918, during the great German Spring offensive, whilst serving with the 19th Battalion, The Northumberland Fusiliers, he was wounded and died two days later, on March 30th, aged twenty.
In 'The Buxton Advertiser' of 4th May 1918 his Company Commander wrote this of him:
'Whilst I was in the Northumberland Fusiliers your son was in my company, and never did a company commander have a more conscientious subaltern, a braver colleague and a truer friend. The best proof of his courage and manliness was the high esteem and love his men bore towards him, a love and admiration equally born for him by his brother officers. You have lost a dear son, we have lost a great friend, the men have lost a splendid leader and the army a most gallant officer. I trust he is now enjoying the reward his great sacrifice entitles him to.'
His obituary in 'The Griffin', Downing College's Magazine, also quoted Arthur's C.O.'s words, as above.
Arthur is buried in Doullens Communal Cemetery Extension No. 1. It is likely, therefore, that he died of his wounds in one of the Hospital facilities located in the town, possibly the 3rd Canadian Stationary Hospital (which stayed there until June 1918) and/or the 2/1st Northumbrian Casualty Clearing Station.
In March 1916, Commonwealth forces succeeded the French on the Arras front and the 19th Casualty Clearing Station came to Doullens, followed by the 41st, the 35th and the 11th. By the end of 1916, these had given way to the 3rd Canadian Stationary Hospital (which stayed until June 1918) and the 2/1st Northumbrian Casualty Clearing Station. From February 1916 to April 1918, these medical units continued to bury in the French extension (No 1) of the communal cemetery. In March and April 1918 the German advance and the desperate fighting on this front threw a severe strain on the Canadian Stationary Hospital.
