Helaine Olen: "Remember, Democrats: Progressive policies are popular" (Washington Post)
… the Trump tax cuts, which showered the wealthy with permanent giveaways while giving most of us small-time cuts that currently sunset in 2025, remain resoundingly unpopular. And you know what enjoys popular support? Making the rich pay more of their fair share.


Helaine Olen: The truth about millennials and money (Washington Post)
The real issue is a system with a disintegrating social safety net that saddles an increasing number of young people with debt and makes it harder for them to get ahead financially, while handing out tax cuts on the wealthiest. The more people are confronted with that reality, the more likely they are to demand change. So even if it wasn't the site's intent, this week Refinery29 performed a valuable public service.


Jonathan Chait: Conservative Shocked to Discover Obama Doesn't Hate White People (NY Mag)
Giving poor people money so they could sit around and never work was what Republicans said was Obama's policy, but it wasn't actually Obama's policy. So successfully did they persuade themselves of their own propaganda that, when coming face-to-face with the actual Obama now, they cannot recognize him.


Jonathan Chait: Trump: Russia Is a Friend, Journalists Are the Enemy (NY Mag)
So, to summarize: Trump met secretly with Vladimir Putin, endorsed his denials of having hacked Democratic emails to help elect Trump, blamed his own country rather than Russian aggression for poor relations, praised Putin's "offer" to interrogate an American diplomat he loathes for having stood up for human rights, and is announcing that American journalists rather than Russia are the true enemy.


Jonathan Jones: What the new photo of the Thai cave boys tells us about their ordeal (Guardian)
The boys gather around a portrait of Saman Kunan, who died in the rescue attempt. Their expressions show a deep recognition of the overwhelming spirit of altruism that saved them.


Lucy Mangan: "Why we need to be optimistic, now more than ever" (Stylist)
Volunteers at the local laundry in Tham Luang took in rescuers' uniforms and kit every evening and returned it all clean and ready every morning. "I cannot go down to the boys directly," explained one. "But I can wash these clothes." I'm taking it as my mantra from now on.


Tom Danehy: Moneyball Jr. (Tucson Weekly)
The crazy expenses and relentless demands of club sports.


Joe Bob Briggs: The Loneliness of the Cord Cutter (Taki's Magazine)
There's a theater in the little Greek town of Epidaurus that seats 14,000 people. It has perfect acoustics. It's where people gather to tell stories, hear stories, and discuss stories, sometimes with music, sometimes with dance, sometimes with costumes, sometimes just with words. This was true 2,300 years ago and it's still true today.

Trivia Question from Yesterday


What TV family lives at 1313 Mockingbird Lane?


       The Munsters                                                      Source


The Munsters is an American sitcom depicting the home life of a family of benign monsters starring Fred Gwynne as Frankenstein's monster-type head-of-the-household Herman Munster, Yvonne De Carlo as his vampire wife, Lily Munster, Al Lewis as Grandpa, the over-the-hill vampire who relishes in talking about the "good old days", and Beverly Owen (later replaced by Pat Priest) as their teenage niece whose all-American beauty made her the family outcast and Butch Patrick as their half-vampire, half-werewolf son Eddie Munster. The series was a satire of both traditional monster movies and the wholesome family fare of the era, and was produced by the creators of Leave It to Beaver. It ran concurrently with the similarly macabre themed The Addams Family (that aired on ABC) and achieved higher figures in the Nielsen ratings.

In 1965, The Munsters was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series, but lost to The Rogues. In the 21st century it received several TV Land Award nominations, including one for Most Uninsurable Driver (Herman Munster).

The Munsters live at 1313 Mockingbird Lane in the city of Mockingbird Heights, a fictional suburb in California. The running gag of the series is that the family, while decidedly odd, consider themselves fairly typical working-class people of the era. Herman, like many husbands of the 1960s, is the sole wage-earner in the family, though Lily and Grandpa make (short-lived) attempts to earn money from time to time. While Herman is the head of household, Lily makes many decisions, too. According to the episode in which Lily and Herman Munster were trying to surprise one another for their anniversary, they were married in 1865. Despite the novel approach of the family being (mostly) supernatural creatures (except for niece Marilyn, who is "normal"), the show followed the typical family sitcom formula of the era: the well-meaning father, the nurturing mother, the eccentric live-in relative, the naïve teenager, and the precocious child.

The costumes and appearances of the family members other than Marilyn were based on the classic monsters of Universal Studios films from the 1930s and 1940s. Universal produced The Munsters as well and was thus able to use these copyrighted designs, including their iconic version of Frankenstein's monster for Herman. Other studios were free to make films with the Frankenstein creature, for example, but could not use the costume and style of make-up originally created by Jack Pierce for the 1931 Universal Studios film Frankenstein. The make-up for the show was created and applied to the actors by Bud Westmore, who pioneered many make-up effects and designs for many of the Universal monster movies.

While its humor was usually broad, the series was visually sophisticated. The Munsters' home was a crumbling Second Empire Victorian mansion, riddled with smoke, filthy with dust and cobwebs. A running joke was that when Lily "dusted" the house, her Electrolux emitted clouds of dust, which she applied to surfaces most people would clean. As a running gag, parts of the house would often be damaged (mostly by Herman's tantrums or clumsiness), but the damage would not exist later. Although many episodes featured scenes outside the house, much of the action took place within the walls of the home.        Source

   The Munsters live at that address in the fictional city of Mockingbird Heights, California, but a different/real family, Charles and Sandra McKee, built and lived in a replica house at that address in Waxahachie, Texas. It is now a tourist attraction available for tours and parties.

Marc's Guide to Curing Cancer

So far so good on beating cancer for now. I'm doing fine. At the end of the month I'll be 16 months into an 8 month mean lifespan. And yesterday I went on a 7 mile hike and managed to keep up with the hiking group I was with. So, doing something right.

Still waiting for future test results and should see things headed in the right direction. I can say that it's not likely that anything dire happens in the short term so that means that I should have time to make several more attempts at this. So even if it doesn't work the first time there are a lot of variations to try. So if there's bad news it will help me pick the next radiation target.

I have written a "how to" guide for oncologists to perform the treatment that I got. I'm convinced that I'm definitely onto something and whether it works for me or not isn't the definitive test. I know if other people tried this that it would work for some of them, and if they improve it that it will work for a lot of them.

The guide is quite detailed and any doctor reading this can understand the procedure at every level. I also go into detail as to how it works, how I figured it out, and variations and improvements that could be tried to enhance it. I also introduce new ways to look at the problem. There is a lot of room for improvement and I think that doctors reading it will see what I'm talking about and want to build on it. And it's written so that if you're not a doctor you can still follow it. It also has a personal story revealing that I'm the class clown of cancer support group. I give great interviews and I look pretty hot in a lab coat.

So, feel free to read this and see what I'm talking about. But if any of you want to help then pass this around to both doctors and cancer patients. I need some media coverage. I'm looking for as many eyeballs as possible to read these ideas. Even if this isn't the solution, it's definitely on the right track. After all, I did hike 7 miles yesterday. And this hiking group wasn't moving slow. So if this isn't working then, why am I still here?

I also see curing cancer as more of an engineering problem that a medical problem. So if you are good at solving problems and most of what you know about medicine was watching the Dr. House MD TV show, then you're at the level I was at when I started. So anyone can jump in and be part of the solution.

Gig at Liverpool's Cavern Club

Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney has performed a secret gig at the iconic venue which introduced The Beatles to the world over 50 years ago.

Tickets were handed out to the show at Liverpool's Cavern Club on a first come, first served basis with the 350-capacity venue filling up immediately.

The musician, 76, announced the exclusive show during a Q&A led by Jarvis Cocker at his old school with hundreds of fans queueing up in the early hours of the morning in the hope of acquiring a ticket.

McCartney tore through a two-hour-plus set ranging from classic Beatles and Wings tracks - including "All My Loving," "Lady Madonna" and "Band on the Run" - to songs from his new solo record Egypt Station.

He ended with a rollicking triumvirate of tunes including "I Saw Her Standing There," "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" and White Album classic "Helter Skelter." You can find the full setlist below.

Sequel

'9 to 5'

We live in an age of reboots and sequels - and in the era of #MeToo. With that in mind, there might be no property better suited for a second installment than 9 to 5, the hit 1980 comedy starring Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, and Dolly Parton as office colleagues who band together to fight back against their creepy misogynistic boss (played by Dabney Coleman). Thus, fans were more than a bit excited to hear that, according to Fonda, a follow-up is in the works - and it'll reunite its legendary leading-lady trio.

Speaking at the Television Critics Association panel for her new HBO documentary Jane Fonda in Five Acts, the Hollywood icon let it be known that plans are moving full-speed ahead on the film. Moreover, Fonda revealed that her illustrious co-stars - one of whom, Tomlin, currently stars with Fonda on Netflix's Grace and Frankie - are onboard for more anti-chauvinism comedy, especially since Fonda believes the situation for women in the workplace is "worse" than it was at the time of the original.

"My role is as an executive producer, and I'm working with the writers, with Lily, and talking to the writers. Right now, Dolly, Lily, and I are all intending to be in it. … Today, a lot of the workforce is hired by an outside company, so if there's a problem, who do you complain to? Who do you fight with? Plus, with social media and the internet, you can be spied on very easily. … I do think sexual harassment will tend to drop, because guys are scared."

Fonda's comments follow Parton's own vocal support for - and enthusiasm about - a new 9 to 5, which she expressed in March to Nightline, saying, "All these years we've talked about doing a sequel to 9 to 5 and it never made any real sense until just recently. We decided that we are going to do another one. We are trying to get the script and all that. Everyone is very interested and we've all agreed that we'd love to do it if it's right."

Aside from Fonda's confirmation that she, Tomlin, and Parton will be back, no other concrete details about the movie have yet to be released. But it sure seems like the three are ready to punch their timecards any minute now.

Without Netflix

BoJack Horseman

BoJack Horseman is coming to Comedy Central this fall. The network announced today that it's acquired exclusive linear television rights to all current seasons of the Netflix animated series, and it will begin airing reruns from the first season on September 26, right after the season 22 South Park premiere. (Season five of BoJack Horseman is slated to premiere on Netflix on September 14.) In addition to airing on TV, select BoJack episodes will be available to stream on Comedy Central's website and the CC App.

"Comedy Central has a long history of using potent satire to help make sense of trying times, so BoJack Horseman is a perfect fit in our lineup," Comedy Central general manager Tanya Giles said in a press release. "We're thrilled to be the first to put BoJack on linear TV, and who better than an animated horse to teach us a thing or two about humanity? Straight from the horse's mouth."

Syndication rights to BoJack were being shopped around to networks earlier this year. Netflix did not secure distribution rights to its early original series, so it's likely that other Netflix shows, like House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black, could also end up on other networks in the near future. In any case, this appears to make BoJack the first announced sale of an original Netflix series into syndication. Congrats on that honorable distinction, BoJack!

Returns To Hosting 'Talking Dead'

Chris Hardwick

AMC has reinstated Nerdist co-founder Chris Hardwick to host his "Walking Dead" after-show "Talking Dead" on Aug. 12. His return will mark roughly two months after his ex-girlfriend, actress Chloe Dykstra, came forward with allegations of sexual and emotional abuse against him.

AMC says it has decided to bring Hardwick back after investigating Dykstra's claims with the help of a law firm.

"Following a comprehensive assessment by AMC, working with Ivy Kagan Bierman of the firm Loeb & Loeb, who has considerable experience in this area, Chris Hardwick will return to AMC as the host of Talking Dead and Talking with Chris Hardwick," the company stated Wednesday via The Hollywood Reporter. "We take these matters very seriously and given the information available to us after a very careful review, including interviews with numerous individuals, we believe returning Chris to work is the appropriate step."

Hardwick's weekly talk show "Talking with Chris Hardwick" does not have a return date yet, and probably won't be back until next summer.

As a result of the allegations, actress Yvette Nicole Brown stepped in as Hardwick's replacement on "Talking Dead" while AMC assessed his standing with the network, according to the Los Angeles Times. She also filled in for him at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this month by moderating "The Walking Dead" and "Fear the Walking Dead" panels.

Face-Recognition Tech

Amazon

Amazon's facial-recognition technology mistakenly labeled more than two dozen members of Congress as having been arrested for a crime, the American Civil Liberties Union said Thursday.

A test commissioned by the ACLU of Northern California found that the company's so-called Rekognition technology -- already in use by two U.S. law enforcement agencies -- misidentified lawmakers at an unacceptably high rate and disproportionately selected African-American in Congress as having past dealings with the law, according to the watchdog group. That raises questions about Rekognition's broader use as a tool for police and other government agencies, the organization said.

In its test, the ACLU compiled 25,000 public arrest shots, then used Amazon's software to check for matches using photos of all members of the U.S. House and Senate. The technology improperly tagged 28 lawmakers as having criminal records, with the false matches including males and females of both political parties from all parts of the country, the ACLU said.

"Nearly 40 percent of Rekognition's false matches in our test were of people of color, even though they make up only 20 percent of Congress," the group stated.

The mistaken IDs included Georgia Rep. John Lewis, an icon of the civil rights movement, and five other members of the Congressional Black Caucus. In late May, the caucus wrote to Amazon saying they were "troubled by the profound negative unintended consequences this form of artificial intelligence could have for African-Americans, undocumented immigrants and protestors."

Google and Facebook

Free Press

After Europe's top monopoly buster Margrethe Vestager fined Google more than $5bn for abusing its dominance over mobile phone technology, it's tempting to relax about the power of big tech. Not only is there a cop watching these giants, she's carrying a really big stick.

But this week's firing by the New York Daily News of half the paper's staff shines a different light on the matter. The reason given by the publisher - a sharp decline in revenue - is largely the result of Google abusing its monopoly over online advertising, in tandem with Facebook. Vestager's move against Android does nothing to protect the free press in Europe or America. This means it's time for other regulators and legislators in America and in Europe to speed the process of bringing Google to heel.

To be sure, the decision by Europe's Directorate General for Competition (DG Comp) last Wednesday is important. The fat fine was the clearest statement yet that Google's practices break the law. Further, the restrictions DG Comp imposed on Google's business model will crimp its behavior in key ways. Vestager and her team deserve thanks. Given the political power of Google, their actions took courage.

But it's vital to put the fine into perspective. In an industry that changes by the day, the case took eight years to complete. Further, it deals with just one part of a problem that is now very large and sprawling. And even after the fine Google will be left holding more than $95bn in cash. Vestager's fighters put out the fire on the first floor, but only after the blaze had spread to the rest of the building.

Of all the social goods now in flames the one we must protect first is trustworthy journalism. In the nine years since Google bought the mobile ad company AdMob, annual ad revenue at Google and Facebook has soared, to more than $95bn and almost $40bn, respectively. During this period, ad revenue at newspapers fell around $50bn in 2005 to under $20bn today.
