• Will Hays, the man in charge of censoring movies during the days when such things were done, was once upset because actress Lana Turner had shown too much cleavage in a movie, and so he scheduled a meeting with movie mogul Louis B. Mayer, who was prepared to argue that he ran a morally upright movie studio. Unfortunately for both men, comedian Harpo Marx found out about the meeting, and Harpo hired a stripper to peel to the bare essentials, then he chased her through the room where Mr. Hays and Mr. Mayer were meeting.
• Alfred Hitchcock ran into a problem with the censors because of the shower scene in Psycho. The censors insisted that the scene showed nudity and the knife touching flesh. Mr. Hitchcock knew that the scene contained nothing of the kind but was edited to make the viewers think that that was what they were seeing. However, he agreed to make changes to the scene, waited a while, then resubmitted the movie exactly as it had been when the censors saw it. This time, the censors agreed that the movie was OK.
• Monty Python’s satiric film Life of Brian treated Jesus Christ with great respect, but it aimed deadly barbs at organized religion. For this reason, it was banned by many theaters. For example, it was banned in Swansea, Wales. Fortunately, a financially struggling theater in Porthcawl, which is near Swansea, showed the movie, so Python fans traveled there to see Life of Brian. The film helped keep the movie theater from being forced to declare bankruptcy.
• An interview with Mae West was once cancelled — that is, censored — by CBS-TV because of her comments. When Person to Person interviewer Charles Collingwood asked her about all the mirrors in her bedroom, she answered, “They’re for personal observation. I always like to know how I’m doing.” And when Mr. Collingwood attempted to change the subject to foreign affairs, Ms. West said, “I’ve always had a weakness for foreign affairs.”
• Early in his film career, Vincent Price thought that he had gotten his big break in a film in which he portrayed King Charles. In his big scene in the movie, King Charles and Nell Gwyn played with some puppies on a large bed. Unfortunately, the young actress playing Nell Gwyn was wearing such a low-cut dress and had such large breasts that the censors cut the scene out of the movie.
• The Marx Brothers are known for their comedic rejection of authority and embrace of anarchy, which is probably why Benito Mussolini hated them. Mussolini ordered his subjects in the fall of 1939 not to laugh at the Marx Brothers.
• Movie director John Waters knows how to keep censors happy — get a can of creamed corn and film a vomit scene so that the censors can cut it from the film.
Charity
• Comedian Richard Pryor’s private life was sometimes erratic. Once, he was charged with assault with a deadly weapon. He was fined $500, ordered to get rid of his gun collection, and given the choice to do 10 benefit performances or go to jail for four months. His attorney, Jack Tanner, asked the judge if a $100,000 donation that Mr. Pryor had given to the Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Telethon would be acceptable in lieu of the 10 benefit performances. Mr. Pryor, however, was unwilling for his donation to be used in that way. He said, “That was for charity. I didn’t do it on account of this case, and I don’t want it to count as part of my sentence.”
In the British Royal Navy, "tapping the admiral" was slang for a method of imbibing alcohol. What device, besides a gimlet, is used to facilitate "tapping the admiral"?
In the Royal Navy, sucking the monkey, bleeding the monkey, or tapping the admiral was the practice of sucking liquor from a cask through a straw. This usually involved making a small hole with a gimlet in a keg or barrel and using a straw to suck out the contents. It was known for people to die from alcohol poisoning by this practice.
Admiral Horatio Nelson was killed in the Battle of Trafalgar by a French sniper while topside his ship, HMS Victory. Following his victory at the Battle of Trafalgar, Nelson's body was preserved in a cask of brandy, or rum, to allow transport back to England. Upon arrival, however, the story goes that the cask was opened and found to be empty of brandy/rum. The pickled body was removed and, upon inspection, it was discovered that the sailors had drilled a hole in the bottom of the cask and drunk all the brandy/rum. Thus, this tale serves as a basis for the term "Nelson's blood" being used to describe brandy/rum. It also serves as the basis for the term 'tapping the Admiral' being used to describe surreptitiously sucking liquor from a cask through a straw.
The details of the story are disputed, as many historians claim the cask contained French brandy, whilst others claim instead the term originated from a toast to Admiral Nelson. Variations of the story, involving different notable corpses, and different spirits, have been in circulation for many years. The official record states merely that the body was placed in "refined spirits" and does not go into further detail.

Dave responded:
A straw. A small hole would be secretly drilled by a gimlet into a wooden cask full of strong drink, and thirsty sailors would gradually consume the contents through a straw. This form of refreshment was forbidden as the sailors’ already generous alcohol allotment was strictly rationed. The part about tapping the admiral refers to an disgusting story that Admiral Nelson’s corpse was placed in a barrel of brandy to preserve it until he could be transported back to London on HMS Victory for a heroes’ funeral. But when the cask was opened all the brandy had been secretly drank up by the ship’s crew.
Stephen aus Oz (& peppy tech, too) replied:
Being an old seadog I believe that 'Tapping the Admiral' refers to the poor fellow's corpse that had been preserved in a barrel of rum for the return voyage to England after he had died overseas and the thirsty shipmates would occasionally have a sip from the same barrel. Sorry, the exact details escape me.
Now here's a story along similar lines. Do you know what 'kissing the gunner's daughter' meant? Well, aboard ship those who had been found to have committed serious offences would be taken topside to have their punishment meted out. Why topside? Because below decks the overheads were so low that you 'couldn't swing a cat'. That is to say a Cat O'Nine Tails. So, those being punished on the ship's main deck would be held down by their shipmates over a cannon where they would be soundly flogged using the aforementioned cat and this became known as 'kissing the gunner's daughter'.

A straw. I had a cat once, almost 50 years ago, that would come and go through an open and screenless window in my upstairs bedroom which required climbing a cedar tree adjacent to an asphalt- shingled roof pitch, up that and then into the window. One morning the cat comes in and jumped on my chest as I slept, as usual, and dropped something, not usual at all, and started purring like mad. I opened my eyes to venture a look and looking back at me was half a rabbit. I recoiled in horror, picked up the offering of love by the head and threw it out the window. After a reproachful look, the cat shot out of the window into the cedar tree to do God knows what. Neither one of us spoke of that again.
Deborah, the Master Gardener replied:
So “tapping the admiral” and “sucking the monkey” involved drinking liquor from a cask with a straw. I guess life on a ship could be pretty brutal & you had to find amusement where it presented itself.

While reading about your cat parading the "rodent" around your humble abode I was reminded of why they do that. Hard to believe but cats do consider their owners as "their humans" and by bringing their kills into the house they're only trying to teach you where food comes from. A worthy goal. You should reciprocate by taking your cat to the local supermarket!

Almost unique among our nation's leaders, Biden has demonstrated that he has the ability to resist the potent force field emanating from Donald Trump that has held Americans in its thrall these past four years. Unlike most of the rest of us, Biden seems to be able to tune his predecessor out, to give him precisely the amount of attention a washed-up game show host deserves. Biden is even able to turn his predecessor's mutant ego-driven tractor-beam against him. You can almost hear the howls of pain from Mar-a-Lago as Biden simply goes about his daily business, doing his work and ignoring Trump altogether.

ABC News chief national correspondent Matt Gutman has been suspended for violating a company policy on Covid-19 safety.
A source familiar with the situation said that Gutman was suspended for violating company safety rules having to do with going into a hospital for a story without getting permission from management beforehand. It was not immediately clear how long the suspension will last.
Gutman, based in Los Angeles, has done extensive reporting on the Covid-19 crisis, particularly in a city that has been a hotspot for the pandemic. In early January, he reported on hospitals grappling with being able to care for all the rising number of patients, as they sought to also respond to other types of trauma emergencies.
Gutman has been with ABC News since 2008, regularly appearing on World News Tonight, 20/20, Good Morning America and Nightline.

The big hype leading into Sunday’s American Idol Season 19 premiere centered on the audition by Claudia Conway, the 16-year-old daughter of former Donald Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway. Claudia insisted, both on her recently revived Twitter account and onscreen in the audition room, that going on Idol was an “amazing opportunity” for her to establish her own identity and pursue her long-held dream of evolving from TikTok star to pop star; Claudia’s attorney father George, who accompanied her to the Idol set, even said Sunday through tears that he “couldn’t imagine anything that would make her happier than to do this.”
But the backlash to Claudia’s TV appearance nonetheless has been immediate, intense… and not unjustified. After a nonstop torrent of Sunday-evening Twitter protests, this outrage was distilled in a widely tweeted Variety op-ed titled “How ‘American Idol’ Used Claudia Conway.”
Many viewers and pundits accused American Idol of exploiting a vulnerable young girl for ratings, or simply wondered if Claudia, despite showcasing some raw talent, would have gotten so much screentime (or any screentime at all), let alone a Golden Ticket to Hollywood, if her parents weren't “high-profile political figures.” (After Claudia’s first song attempt didn’t go over so well, the judges, particularly Katy Perry, seemed so eager to say yes that they actually asked her to sing a second song, with Perry’s rather hands-on coaching yielding slightly better results.)
Other critics understandably blasted American Idol for humanizing and normalizing the behavior of Kellyanne, who has made headlines not just for her complicit role in the Trump administration but for allegedly physically and emotionally abusing Claudia. On Sunday’s Idol episode, Claudia said, “When your mom is working for the president of the United States, who you very much disagree with, it's hard,” but she and Kellyanne mostly downplayed their “family drama” — insisting that they love each other just like any other feuding put-upon mother and incorrigible teenage daughter, and that they “agree to disagree,” even if their relationship is currently “iffy.” Claudia’s audition was even preceded by a cheerful video pep-talk from her supportive mom — although that supposed feel-good moment actually came across as positively dystopian, as tiny Claudia stood in the shadow of a Big Brother-esque, billboard-sized digital wall of Kellyanne’s grinning, pixelated face.
Just as a boy and his dog are never parted, the friendship between a little Mogwai named Gizmo and his human pal, Billy Peltzer, endures to this day. A new commercial for Mountain Dew Zero Sugar proves that the Gremlins duo's relationship is still going strong 36 years after their first meeting in Joe Dante's 1984 classic. These days, they're a little older, a little goofier... and not much wiser when it comes to following the rules about Mogwai care. (Watch the ad above.)
While Billy and Gizmo's reunion will warm the hearts of '80s kids, the breakout star of Mountain Dew's instantly viral spot is a new character in Gremlins canon. The ad reveals that Billy (Zach Galligan) is now the father of a teenage daughter, who has a Mogwai of her own. Twitter flipped out about this plot twist, and the larger implications it might have for the long-rumored Gremlins 3.
Galligan plays it coy about his fictional daughter's future, including whether or not her mom is Kate Beringer — Billy's Christmas-hating girlfriend, so memorably played by Phoebe Cates. "I think most fans would like to make that assumption," the actor says. "But the fact of the matter is that there's no mention or visual picture of Phoebe anywhere in the ad. We know that Billy has gotten married, but we don't say who the mom is. Let's just say that she probably is the daughter of Phoebe and I. Why ruin a good story with the truth?"
We'd likely get an answer to Billy's daughter's parentage should Gremlins 3 come to pass. But Galligan tells fans they shouldn't hold their breath about Cates — who hasn't acted in a movie since 2001's The Anniversary Party, opposite her husband, Kevin Kline — emerging from her now 20-year retirement to reprise the role of Kate. "I certainly would hope she would come back," he says of his co-star, who currently owns and operates the high-end New York boutique, Blue Tree. "But she's very successful at what she does now, and shows absolutely no sign of having anything to do with acting. I think she's very happy and satisfied with being a successful businesswoman, which she was back then. She was always an extremely formidable and capable young woman and she's proven that."
Galligan also doesn't expect Dante to return for any additional Mogwai action. After the success of the first movie, the director had full creative control over the 1990 sequel, Gremlins 2: The New Batch, which abandoned the original's blend of horror and comedy in favor of an anarchic satirical spirit straight out of vintage Looney Tunes cartoons. "It’s a pretty crazy, manic movie. And one of my favorites," Dante told Yahoo Entertainment in 2015. Unfortunately, audiences at the time didn't agree: The New Batch earned only $41 million — well behind the first movie's mighty $153 million gross.
Queen Victoria had special mourning jewels dedicated to her lost loved ones, it has been revealed for the first time.
A button, a brooch and pendants, some containing locks of hair, "brought solace" to the Queen following the death of her mother and three of her nine children.
They are being sold for the first time, having been passed down the late monarch's descendants, through Princess Alice, for generations.
Queen Victoria was famously associated with mourning, wearing black every day for 40 years after husband Albert died, until her own death.
They will go under the hammer in an auction of the collection of the great-great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria, Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma.
The conservative editorial board of the Wall Street Journal on Sunday drew a line in the sand and warned Republicans to leave Donald Trump behind if they want to retake the White House in 2024.
“Mr. Trump may run again, but he won’t win another national election,” they wrote in an opinion piece. “The country is moving past the Trump Presidency, and the GOP will remain in the wilderness until it does too,” they added.
The article argues that president was already unpopular, never having an approval rating of more than 50 per cent and already having lost the election before the events of the attack on the Capitol, but to run again would even further weaken the party.
“He may go on a revenge campaign tour, or run as a third-party candidate, but all he will accomplish is to divide the center-right and elect Democrats,” the Journal board wrote. “The GOP’s defeats in the two Jan. 5 Georgia Senate races proved that.”
At least six people seen providing security to Roger Stone (R-Liar), an ally of the former president Donald Trump (R-Lock Him Up), later breached the Capitol during the 6 January insurrection, according to US media reports.
Mr Stone was in Washington DC on both the 5 and 6 January and made several public appearances – near the Supreme Court and later by the White House – where he was seen with five individuals providing him security. A sixth individual was seen driving him around in a golf cart that afternoon.
According to reports by CNN and the New York Times, the six men are associated with the far-right militia group the Oath Keepers, described by the Anti-Defamation League as one of the largest organisations of “anti-government extremists” in the US.
Video footage reviewed by the NYT reportedly shows all six of the men who accompanied Mr Stone inside the Capitol building after it was breached by rioters on 6 January, with some of them meeting other Oath Keepers who have since been charged. None of the six men have themselves been charged.
Mr Stone, an ally of the former president, was convicted in 2019 for obstructing a federal investigation, witness tampering and lying to Congress. He was sentenced to 40 months in prison, a sentence that was later commuted by Mr Trump in July 2020.
“Life finds a way,” the actor Jeff Goldblum playing scientist Ian Malcolm declared in the 1993 movie “Jurassic Park.”
Animal life was not what scientists were expecting to find in the pitch-black seawater beneath almost half a mile of floating Antarctic ice, but it seems to have found a way with the discovery of sea creatures living in the extreme environment.
Geologists taking sediment cores from the seafloor beneath the giant Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf on the southern edge of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea discovered what biologists believe are types of sponge. The finding was published Monday in Frontiers in Marine Science.
The geologists were more than 150 miles from the open ocean when they bored a hole through the 3,000-foot-thick ice with a hot-water drill and lowered a coring device and a video camera into the dark seawater below it.
They had expected the seafloor to be mud, but were dismayed when they hit a boulder, which meant they couldn’t get the intended sediment samples. But to their surprise, the camera showed colonies of “stationary” animals attached to the rock – probably sponges and related sea creatures.
It’s time to re-write the history books again folks, although if you’re still reading that Christopher Columbus “discovered” America in 1492, you need to buy a whole new history book. Renessaisance-era Venetian glass beads discovered at multiple archaeological sites in Alaska suggest they pre-date Columbus’s arrival by decades, making them the earliest known European goods in the Americas. This means Indigenous North Americans had contact with people who had either been to Italy or traded with people who had long before Columbus rocked up.
By now, it’s commonly accepted that the Vikings were the first Europeans to set foot on continental North America. Leif Erikkson, a Norse explorer from Iceland, led the first European expedition in search of the “New World” nearly 500 years before Columbus, with the oldest known Norse settlement discovered in Newfoundland, Canada dating to 1000 CE.
Now, it looks like Columbus has been pushed further back in line, as Venetian blue glass beads discovered at three archaeological sites in Alaska date back to the mid to late 15th century. These blue glass “trade beads” have been found in North America before, as well as the Caribbean and east coast of Central America, but they dated between 1550 and 1750. Using mass spectrometry carbon-dating, two archaeologists have revealed these beads date to sometime between 1440 and 1480.
What were mid-15th-century glass beads from Venice’s Murano Island – still famous for its glasswork today – doing halfway across the world on a continent Europeans didn’t know existed, and how did they get there?
Detailing their findings in the journal American Antiquity, authors Michael Kunz from the University of Alaska Museum of the North and Robin Mills from the Bureau of Land Management suggest these beads were brought to Alaska by traders who traveled China’s Silk Road, through Siberia, and eventually crossed the Bering Strait to Alaska.
