Wrestling is a real sport. Roller derby is, too, though it's a more colorful one. It would be easy to be misled. The team names, for instance, suggest a theatrical approach, as do the names sported by the players: "Luna Killjoy," "Cupquake," "Pimp Malady," "Addy Hominem." Add the dramatic commentary that came in this case from the excellent skate-by-skate announcer, called "Bear."

Thinking the coach was full, the driver drove off.

Trivia Question of the Day


The only person to both appear in and direct episodes of Twilight Zone, she is also the only woman to have directed an episode of the series. What is her name?

                                  



Send your answer to Marty









Trivia Question from Yesterday


Where on the human body would you find the philtrum?


      Face - Upper Lip                                                      Source


The philtrum, or medial cleft, is a vertical groove in the middle area of the upper lip, common to many mammals, extending from the nose to the upper lip. Together with a glandular rhinarium and slit-like nostrils, it is believed to constitute the primitive condition for mammals in general.

The human philtrum, bordered by ridges, also is known as the infranasal depression, but has no apparent function.        Source







Randall was first, and correct, with:
   Oooh! OOh! I know this one!
  The philtrum is that groove in your upper lip right beneath the nose, between the nostrils





Lipless Lois Of Oregon wrote:
   When I was a very little kid my big sister told me the philtrum got made when god told me all his secrets then pressed his finger to my lips and told me not to tell! I asked why I didn't remember any of this, and what was the point of telling me stuff, and smushing my lips in the process, only to have it all forgoten anyway. She didn't have an answer. I chose not to believe her bullshit story, or any other crap about god.





mj said:
   Smile
  And show off your philtrum. It's that little depression right under the center line of one's nose, just above the bow of the upper lip.




Alan J replied:
   Upper Lip.



Charlie responded:
   In the center of the face betwixt the upper lip and the nose.
  Somebody thought Cary Grant and Jim Morrison had especially noteworthy ones.





Adam answered:
   Your face, I believe.



Deborah replied:
   Ah, a question to which I know the answer: The philtrum is found on the upper lip; it's the indentation that runs from under the nose to the top of the upper lip.
  Summer-like temps here. Hard to believe it's only March.




Marian said:
   groove in the middle of the upper lip



Dale of Diamond Springs, Norcali responded:
   Angie with her long philtrum. Poor FAS babies. Check out that zit!

BartCop

Hello Bartcop fans,

As you all know the untimely passing of Terry was unexpected, even by him. We all knew he had cancer but we all thought he had some years left. So some of us who have worked closely with him over the years are scrambling around trying to figure out what to do. My job, among other things, is to establish communications with the Bartcop community and provide email lists and groups for those who might put something together. Those who want to play an active roll in something coming from this, or if you are one of Bart's pillars, should send an email to active@bartcop.com.

Bart's final wish was to pay off the house mortgage for Mrs. Bart who is overwhelmed and so very grateful for the support she has received. Anyone wanting to make a donation can click on this the yellow donate button on bartcop.com

But - I need you all to help keep this going. This note isn't going to directly reach all of Bart's fans. So if you can repost it on blogs and discussion boards so people can sign up then when we figure out what's next we can let more people know. This list is just over 600 but like to get it up to at least 10,000 pretty quick. So here's the signup link for this email list.

No Funny Americans (Or Women)

Trevor Noah

Trevor Noah, a 31-year-old comedian from South Africa who has contributed to "The Daily Show" a handful of times in recent months, will become Jon Stewart's replacement as host, Comedy Central announced Monday.

Noah was chosen a little more than a month after Stewart unexpectedly announced he was leaving "The Daily Show" following 16 years as the show's principal voice.

New Jersey native Stewart is being replaced by the son of a black South African mother and white European father. Noah has an international presence, and hosted a late-night talk show in South Africa, "Tonight With Trevor Noah."

Noah, who has appeared on Jay Leno and David Letterman, was the subject of a 2011 documentary film by David Paul Meyer, "You Laugh but It's True," which followed his career in post-apartheid South Africa.

Who's Pushing It?

'Religious Freedom' Legislation

A recent opinion piece by Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, lamented Indiana's new 'Religious Freedom Restoration Act' as what he characterized as a "wave of legislation" which some claim is the result of the emerging power and reach of conservative "bill mills."

"There's something very dangerous happening in states across the country. A wave of legislation, introduced in more than two dozen states, would allow people to discriminate against their neighbors," Mr. Cook wrote in The Washington Post. "Some, such as the bill enacted in Indiana last week that drew a national outcry and one passed in Arkansas, say individuals can cite their personal religious beliefs to refuse service to a customer or resist a state nondiscrimination law. Others are more transparent in their effort to discriminate."

Cook was referring to Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and his state's new "religious freedom" law, which gives business owners the right to decline serving customers based on religious grounds - in effect turning away LGBT customers

Some Democrats and political analysts say that the "wave" Cook refers to is not originating with voters, but rather conservative "bill mills" that finance state legislators to attend educational conferences that may provide both unified ideas and prefabricated bills to take home. Specifically, they see The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) as the primary driver of conservative state laws.

Rescue Story Refuted By Cameraman

Bill O'Really

The most direct challenge to multiple Bill O'Reilly controversies was published on Monday, as a cameraman whom O'Reilly claims to have rescued during 1982 coverage of Buenos Aires riots says the Fox News host made up his account.

On Fox News in 2013, O'Reilly claimed to have rescued his photographer, who was bleeding from the ear: "My photographer got run down and then hit his head and was bleeding from the ear on the concrete. And the army was chasing us … I dragged him off."

Mother Jones tracked down the man who claims to have been O'Reilly's cameraman, who flatly denied O'Reilly's story.

"I never fell nor was I bleeding out my ear at any time during my Buenos Aires assignment," Ignacio Medrano-Carbo said. "I do not even recall Mr. O'Reilly being near me when I shot all that footage nor after I left the unrest at Plaza de Mayo that evening. But it is not uncommon to be separated from your reporter during a disturbance such as that one."

Another member of the CBS crew, Jim Forrest, also confirmed Medrano-Carbo was paired with O'Reilly that night.

Collection On Nationwide Tour Before Auction

Shirley Temple

Costumes, toys, photos and autographs from Shirley Temple's 1930s film career are coming to a city near you.

A spokeswoman for the late actress said Monday that a collection of keepsakes from Temple's time in Hollywood will be exhibited at museums across the country before being put up for auction in July.

Publicist Cheryl Kagan says the travelling exhibition will begin April 30 at the Strong Museum in Rochester, New York.

Among the items on view will be a baby grand piano inscribed by Theodore Steinway and a child-size race car that was a gift from Bill "Bojangles" Robinson, along with Temple's autograph collection and costumes from her various films.

Attorneys In Court

Robin Williams

A probate judge on Monday instructed attorneys for the estate and heirs of Robin Williams to take eight weeks to work out disputes over property and money between the three adult children of the late comedian and his widow.

Susan Schneider Williams seeks items like the tuxedo her husband wore to their 2011 wedding and art and furniture from their home in Tiburon, California, where Williams committed suicide in August 2014. There is also a dispute over allowances to maintain that home, where she still lives.

Her attorney, James Wagstaffe, asked Judge Andrew Y.S. Cheng in San Francisco Superior Court to postpone the disposition of Williams's will for at least two more months, while a trustee for his estate and an attorney for his children lamented the will had gone to probate court.

One of the trustees for the estate, attorney Andrew A. Bassak, told the judge that Robin Williams made decisions to establish trusts for his heirs and never meant for a list of possessions to be at issue in public.

The attorney for Williams's children agreed with the trustee.

Asks Members

American Pharmacists Association

The largest association of U.S. pharmacists approved a measure on Monday at its annual meeting in California calling on members to avoid participating in executions, saying it violates a core value of the profession, an official said.

The move by the American Pharmacists Association, which has about 62,000 members, sets out ethical standards for the profession but has no authority to halt the activities of the main suppliers of drugs for executions, lightly regulated compounding pharmacies that can mix chemicals.

U.S. states have been struggling to obtain drugs for executions. Many pharmaceutical firms, mostly in Europe, have imposed sales bans because they object to having medications made for other purposes used in lethal injections.

As a result, prison systems that used to buy drugs directly from companies have been seeking the help of pharmacists to acquire the chemicals needed for lethal injections.

SCOTUS Preserves Separation

New York

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday left intact New York City's ban on religious worship services inside school buildings after hours.

In a brief order, the court said it would not hear an appeal filed by the Bronx Household of Faith, a conservative Congregational church. The court's action leaves intact an April 2014 ruling by the New York-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which upheld the ban.

The appeals court had said the New York City Board of Education's regulation, created so the city would not be perceived as endorsing religious activity in a public forum, "was consistent with its constitutional duties."

That court said the ban was a reasonable way to abide by the so-called Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution, which provides for separation of church and state.

Moved To Yosemite, Sequoia Parks

Bighorn Sheep

For the first time in a century, endangered Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep are back on their ancestral range and headed toward recovery, wildlife officials said Monday.

During an ongoing relocation effort, dozens of bighorns have been captured with nets dropped from helicopters then moved to Yosemite and Sequoia national parks.

"We've got the sheep where we want them on a broad geographic basis, which is a huge milestone," California Department of Fish and Wildlife biologist Tom Stephenson said. "We've still got to get their numbers up a bit."

Thousands of the sheep once roamed the Sierra Nevada but overhunting and disease spread by domesticated sheep herds caused near-extinction.

Between 1914 and 1986, no bighorn roamed Yosemite, and statewide their numbers hit a low of about 100. The animals were placed on the federal endangered species list in 1999.

Resurrected

Lincoln Continental

Elvis Presley had one; so did Clark Gable. It was even the sedan of presidents. Then the name vanished amid an invasion of newer luxury cars from Europe and Asia.

Thirteen years after the last Continental rolled off the assembly line, Ford Motor Co. is resurrecting its storied nameplate. The new Continental debuts in concept form at this week's New York auto show. The production version of the full-size sedan goes on sale next year.

After more than a decade of toying with alphabetical names like LS and MKS to be more like its foreign rivals, Ford's 98-year-old Lincoln brand is embracing its heritage. It's a measure of the growing confidence at Lincoln, which is finally turning around a decades-long sales decline. And it's a nod to the importance of China, where customers know the Continental name and appreciate brands with a rich history.

The Continental was born in 1938, when Henry Ford's son Edsel commissioned a convertible he could use on his spring vacation. Thrilled by the reception he got as he drove the elegant sedan around Palm Beach, Edsel made the Continental part of Lincoln's lineup.

The Continental soon became the pinnacle of American luxury. Warner Brothers gave Elizabeth Taylor a 1956 Continental with a custom paint color to match her eyes. A darker historical note: John F. Kennedy was riding in the back of a 1961 Continental convertible when he was assassinated in Dallas.

Welcome!


You have reached the Home page of BartCop Entertainment.

Do you have something to say?
Anything that increased your blood pressure, or, even better, amused or entertained?

Do you have a great album no one's heard?
How about a favorite TV show, movie, book, play, cartoon, or legal amusement?
A popular artist that just plain pisses you off?
A box set the whole world should own?
Vile, filthy rumors about Republican hypocrites?

Just plain vile, filthy rumors?

In other words, submissions are welcome.
