Tom Danehy: In the spirit of the season, Tom tries to see things the way a Trump supporter does (Tucson Weekly)
The PRESIDENT, who is, of course, the greatest President of all time-even greater than Benjamin Franklin or Alexander Hamilton-was super pissed off when he wasn't named Time Magazine's Person of the Year, and who can blame him? The first part of the problem is since when is it Person of the Year? For decades, it was Man of the Year, and with good reason. I mean, how can a female be Man of the Year? Anyway, so they give it to this teenage girl who cries about climate change, which our PRESIDENT has assured us doesn't even exist. It's just a hoax started by Big Coal or Big Oil. (I'm not sure; I wasn't really listening to that part at the rally.) And now people are getting all butt-hurt because The President congratulated the girl. What's wrong with telling her to chill and go see a movie? I mean, he didn't say that he was going to grab her by her private parts.
Jesse McCarthy: Finding the Other (The Nation)
Our country is not now and never has been as noble as Morrison's work insisted we could be. In this sense, she wrote for the future-for the young readers who are only now taking their first steps into the classroom and the public library, gazing at the shelves searching for answers to as yet unknown questions. This generation will pull down those books and feel with enviable freshness that inordinate beauty and vitality we hold dear. They may find themselves, as we so often have, echoing Morrison, who said in praise of James Baldwin at his funeral, "In your hands language was handsome again. In your hands we saw how it was meant to be: neither bloodless nor bloody, and yet alive."
Calvin Wilson: 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' offers high-flying thrills (St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
"Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker " is one of the most anticipated films in Hollywood history - and will likely prompt a combination of delight and disappointment. Delight, because fans of the space-opera franchise that began in 1977 can't get enough of its fearless heroes, vicious villains and spectacular action. Disappointment, because how could the conclusion of the nine-film, three-trilogy storyline possibly satisfy such high-flown expectations?

Pauline Esther "Popo" Phillips (née Friedman) and her identical twin sister Esther Pauline "Eppie" Lederer (née Friedman) were two of the most widely syndicated newspaper columnists in the world at one time. By what names are they better known?
Abigail Van Buren (Dear Abby) and Ann Landers
Source
Pauline Esther "Popo" Phillips (née Friedman; July 4, 1918 - January 16, 2013), also known as Abigail Van Buren, was an American advice columnist and radio show host who began the Dear Abby column in 1956. It became the most widely syndicated newspaper column in the world, syndicated in 1,400 newspapers with 110 million readers.
From 1963 to 1975, Phillips also hosted a daily Dear Abby program on CBS Radio. TV anchorwoman Diane Sawyer calls her the "pioneering queen of salty advice".

Esther Pauline "Eppie" Lederer (née Friedman; July 4, 1918 - June 22, 2002), better known by the pen name Ann Landers, was an American advice columnist and eventually a nationwide media celebrity. She began writing the "Ask Ann Landers" column in 1955 and continued for 47 years, by which time its readership was 90 million people. A 1978 World Almanac survey named her the most influential woman in the United States. She was the identical twin sister of Pauline Phillips, who wrote the "Dear Abby" advice column as Abigail Van Buren.
Lederer was a profile-raiser for several medical charities, and in 1977 President Carter appointed her to a six-year term on a cancer advisory board.

Abigail Van Buren and Ann Landers. In 1955 Esther won a contest to take over the "Ask Ann Landers" advice column in the Chicago Sun Times after the death of the original Ann Landers, Ruth Crowley. Pauline took notice and applied to the San Francisco Chronicle to start her own advice column. Esther was not amused and the formerly close twins became bitter competitors and didn't speak for most of the rest of their lives. At one time the two sisters were listed on lists of the most influential women in the country, although sometimes they wrote vacuous nonsense, like when Ann Landers used her column to irresponsibly invent the hoax about people poisoning children's Halloween candy.
My local paper carried the Ann Landers column until it ended with her death in 2002. After that the paper started running the "Dear Abby" column, which by that time had been taken over by Pauline's daughter. I had to check to see if the column is still in the paper, as I never read that nonsense but I see it is still hanging in there.

I never actually knew that they had such nicknames as "Eppie" and "Popo," but I suppose Dear Abby was for sure a lot more marketable name than either of those. So yeah, those twins were the beloved Dear Abby and Ann Landers.

Song: "City Punk (Instrumental)" from the album DEGRADO MORALE

• Larry David, one of the creators of Seinfeld, did not want the show to be one of the sentimental varieties of sitcoms in which everyone hugs at the end after learning a lesson. This is evident in the way in which Seinfeld showed that each of the main characters could at times be shallow and manipulative. In fact, people involved with the show wore jackets that bore this motto: "No Hugging, No Learning."
• During an appearance on the quiz show You Bet Your Life, a man was completely paralyzed by fright and could not speak a word. Groucho Marx said to the audience, "Either this man is dead or my watch has stopped."

• Americans can be incredibly ignorant about other countries. When he was a young man, comedian Lewis Black traveled throughout Europe, and of course in France he was able to speak very little French. He asked about the location of a bathroom, but the French proprietor of the very inexpensive lodgings simply pointed to an odd contraption that looked like a toilet without a seat but with running water. Mr. Black crapped in the contraption, and he learned that it is a bad idea to crap in a bidet because you have to clean the crap up. Of course, people from other countries can also be ignorant about the United States. Mr. Black's grandfather emigrated to the U.S., where he once got in trouble because he had not paid his taxes. When the tax people informed him, "You have to pay taxes every year," he replied, "Really? I didn't know."
• Life on the road can be hard for a stand-up comedian. For a while, Margaret Cho was so busy that she often woke up not knowing in which city she was performing. Whenever that happened, she would look for a telephone book to find out where she was. While sleeping in her own home, she occasionally had a nightmare about missing a flight. She would wake up, quickly get dressed and pack a bag, then realize that this was a rare day off and she didn't have to travel anywhere.
• Comedian Rita Rudner once rented a house in the Kensington area of London, England. On her first morning in the house, she went to her terrace and looked out over the neighborhood, where she saw a group of horses sunning themselves. This sounds normal - but the horses were on the top-story balcony of a high-rise. No, this was not a drug-induced hallucination. The horses belonged to the Queen, and she kept them in this horses-only apartment building.
• In 1939, the Three Stooges were invited to perform in London at the Palladium. They did not pay for first-class passage on the ship that took them to England, but the captain of the ship was a fan, so he upgraded them to first class at no cost to them. Moe Howard, the leader of the Stooges, remembers with amusement a newspaper headline that he saw when they arrived: "STOOGES ARRIVE IN LONDON - QUEEN LEAVES FOR AMERICA."
• Humorist Frank Sullivan used to dream about sailing overseas, but unfortunately, he never did because he suffered from seasickness. He told a friend, "I doubt that I'll ever be cured, but I'll still hoping eventually to go abroad. Every day I'm stepping over larger puddles."
• Jack E. Leonard, a much-overweight comedian, once squeezed into a taxicab and ordered the driver, "Take me to a larger cab."
If the idiot Senators do not do what is right for the country & turn the Orange Criminal out of office, you know he will keep committing more & more crimes.

Keep violating your oath of office, keep getting impeached!
Moscow Mitch moans that many have wanted to impeach since Predator was nominated--he says it like it's a defect. I say those of us who knew Don the Con was unfit for office and would screw things up are a lot smarter than Predator's dim-witted deplorable cultists.

SyFy has the movie 'Star Trek Beyond', followed by the movie 'The Last Witch Hunter', then a FRESH'Van Helsing'.
IMAX announced Thursday that it has set a new company record for annual global box office grosses, passing last year's record of $1.032 billion just before the company is set to screen "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" as its widest release ever with 1,450 screens in 75 countries.
This is the second consecutive year that IMAX has grossed over $1 billion worldwide in a single year, breaking new records for annual Chinese and overseas grosses in addition to the new global record. China accounted for $341 million while international grosses stood at $368.8 million. IMAX also set a new record for grosses for local language films with $124 million grossed and annual bests in 22 countries including India, Japan, France and Germany.
The local language record came thanks in large part to a trio of films. In China, the blockbuster "The Wandering Earth" and the animated Oscar dark horse contender "Ne Zha" now stand as IMAX's No. 1 and No. 2 highest local language releases in that country. Meanwhile, in Japan, the Makoto Shinkai anime film "Weathering With You" set a new IMAX local language record there. In both countries, 2019 marked new overall IMAX records with "Avengers: Endgame" now the top IMAX Chinese grosser and "Bohemian Rhapsody" taking the crown in Japan.
This weekend, "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" will open on 415 IMAX screens in North America and 1,035 screens overseas, with IMAX expected to be a significant contributor to a global opening weekend that could grow as large as $450 million. That will lead the company into a 2020 in which at least five blockbusters filmed with IMAX cameras will be released: "No Time to Die," "Wonder Woman: 1984," "Top Gun: Maverick," "Tenet," and "Detective Chinatown 3."
The highest-earning YouTuber this year is once again Ryan Kaji, the 8-year-old star of the Ryan's World channel who's the main talent for a small media empire that pulled in an estimated $26 million.
That's according to the annual YouTube creator earning estimates from Forbes, which tracked gross income from a variety of sources from June 2018-June 2019.
Ryan and his family's 28-employee production company, Sunlight Entertainment, also topped Forbes' list last year with $22 million in estimated earnings. The company's gross income for the most recent 12-month period was roughly double that of PewDiePie, the No. 1 most-subscribed YouTuber and most-viewed creator on the platform for 2019. PewDiePie, who has announced that he will go on hiatus next year, is tied with fellow YouTube gamer Markiplier at No. 7 on Forbes' list, both with an estimated take of $13 million.
Sunlight Entertainment, run by Ryan's parents Loann and Shion Kaji, currently manages nine YouTube channels: Ryan's World, Ryan's World Español, Ryan's World in Japanese, EK Doodles, Ryan's Family Review, Vtubers, Combo Panda, Gus the Gummy Gator and The Studio Space. Ryan's channels have received over 41 billion views to date and amassed over 31 million subscribers. Ryan and his family reside in Texas.
When Eddie Murphy hosts Saturday Night Live for the first time in 35 years, he'll have some very important people cheering him on from the audience.
The actor and comedian is returning to the stage that made him a household name on Saturday when he hosts the season finale of NBC's long-running variety sketch show - and all of his 10 kids will get to watch his big return.
Murphy was previously a cast member from 1980 to 1984 and last hosted the show in 1984. He also briefly returned for the show's 40th anniversary special in 2015.
After two days of deliberations, the Georgia jury in the trial of the wrongful death of The Walking Dead stuntman John Bernecker returned with a verdict this afternoon.
AMC Networks were found "not to be negligent" in the death of the stuntman, said the juror foreperson in an unanimous decision just read out in court. However, the estate of Bernecker, as represented by his mother, was awarded $8.6 million in civil damages. There were no additional punitive damages.
Any appeal looks unlikely as the nearly $9 million the jury deemed in damages will be covered by insurance, a source close to the case told Deadline.
Adding a further twist to the verdict, the jury decided that Bernecker was in fact an independent contractor, not an employee of production company Stalwart Films, which seems to be the main focus of liability in the jury's perspective Thursday.
Bernecker died two days after suffering massive head injuries while performing a stunt as part of a fight scene for Season 8 of the hit AMC series in July 2017. The seasoned stuntman was to fall head first over a rail balcony and into a crash pad for a scene on TWD. However, instead of dropping outward and away from the balcony, Bernecker tragically fell underneath it.
Hawaii officials are having police leave a mountain where protesters are blocking construction of a giant telescope because the project isn't moving forward for now.
An international consortium wants to build the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii's tallest peak. But some Native Hawaiians believe the telescope will desecrate sacred land. Protesters have stopped construction from going forward since mid-July.
Telescope builders informed the state it is not prepared to move forward with construction at this time, according to a memo Thursday from Gov. David Ige's office.
But that doesn't mean the embattled Thirty Meter Telescope will move to an alternate site in Spain's Canary Islands. Construction likely wouldn't have moved forward during the winter months anyway.
Ige "expressed his severe disappointment that TMT will not move forward for now, despite months of often intense behind-the-scenes discussions among protesters, telescope owners and state and county officials," the memo by the governor's chief of staff, Linda Chu Takayama, said. "Those efforts will continue, and the Governor anticipates that activity on the project will resume in the future."
China's farside lunar rover Yutu 2, part of the country's Chang'e 4 mission, has broken the longevity record for working on the surface of the moon.
China Global Television Network (CGTN) recently reported that the robot rolled by the previous record set by the Soviet Union's Lunokhod 1 rover.
Lunokhod 1 was the first roving remote-controlled robot to land on another world, operating in the Sea of Rains starting on Nov. 17, 1970. Lunokhod 1 operations officially ceased about 10.5 months later, on Oct. 4, 1971. That was the 14th anniversary of the launch of Sputnik 1, the first-ever artificial satellite.
Yutu 2 has been working on the moon for more than 11 months, since Jan. 3 of this year.
The rover is part of China's Chang'e 4 mission, which also includes a stationary lander. The duo touched down on the floor of the 110-mile-wide (186 km) Von Kármán Crater, which lies within the South Pole-Aitken Basin.
Scientists have discovered the world's oldest forest in an abandoned quarry near Cairo, New York. The 385-million-year-old rocks contain the fossilized woody roots of dozens of ancient trees. The find marks a turning point in Earth's history. When trees evolved these roots, they helped pull carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and lock it away, radically shifting the planet's climate and leading to the atmosphere we know today.
"The Cairo site is very special," says team member Christopher Berry, a paleobotanist at Cardiff University in the United Kingdom. The quarry floor, about half the size of a U.S. football field, represents a horizontal slice through the soil just below the surface of the ancient forest. "You are walking through the roots of ancient trees," Berry says. "Standing on the quarry surface we can reconstruct the living forest around us in our imagination."
Berry and colleagues first discovered the site in 2009 and are still analyzing the fossils it contains. Some of the fossilized roots there are 15 centimeters in diameter and form 11-meter-wide horizontal radial patterns spreading out from where the vertical tree trunks once stood. They seem to belong to Archaeopteris, a type of tree with large woody roots and woody branches with leaves that is related in some way to modern trees, the team reports today in Current Biology. Previously, the oldest Archaeopteris fossils were no more than 365 million years old, Berry says, and exactly when the tree evolved its modern-looking features has been unclear.
The Cairo site suggests Archaeopteris did so 20 million years earlier, says Patricia Gensel, a paleobotanist at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill who was not involved with the work. "The size of those root systems-it's really changing the picture," she says, adding that, even 20 years ago, researchers assumed trees with such large and complex root systems did not evolve so early in geological time.
