  • Kicking Off with Comedy Central's Roast of Rob Lowe
    Media Release: Tuesday August 23, 2016 Get ready for a feast of Roasts on Foxtel Kicking off with Comedy Central’s Roast of Rob Lowe Tuesday September 6 at 8.30pm Express from the US on The Comedy Channel Hollywood heartthrob Rob Lowe is treated with his very own special Roast – and considering the skeletons in Lowe's closet, which include struggles with alcohol and an affair with Princess Stephanie of Monaco – the Roasters should have no problem finding topics to poke fun at. Comedy Central’s Roast of Rob Lowe will premiere Tuesday September 6 at 8.30pm Express from the US on The Comedy Channel. Known for his roles in St Elmo’s Fire, Wayne’s World, the Austin Powers franchise, The West Wing, Brothers & Sisters, Parks & Recreation, The Grinder and many, many more – Lowe has been a handsome fixture of our small and silver screens since the early 1980s. Get ready for Lowe’s dirty laundry to be aired when the Roasters spill the beans on his movie star lifestyle and brat pack antics. Comedy Central’s Roast of Rob Lowe will assemble a dais of comedians and celebrities, along with Roast Master David Spade (Saturday Night Live, Joe Dirt, Just Shoot Me!, Rules of Engagement), to take down the ageless sex symbol one burn at a time. The first round of Roasters confirmed include one of the UK's most distinctive comedians Jimmy Carr, Saturday Night Live’s Pete Davidson, actress and Lowe’s co- star Bo Derek, former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning, comedic actor Rob Riggle, and Roast alumni Jeff Ross.

  • But Not As We Know It
    LOCKDOWN and LIFE but not as we know it It has long been argued that humans are intrinsically selfish, prone to be territorial and war-like and that these instincts are what helped us, along with our super-large brains to become the earth’s dominant species. However, over the last 50 years this theory has increasingly been questioned and the counter theory has gained ground that humans are actually distinguished from other species, not by their selfishness or intelligence but by their ability to cooperate and learn from and help each other. I heartily recommend ‘Humankind’ by Rutger Bregman if you are interested in this. This has come into focus for me recently because the capacity of people around the world to be selfless, to support others, especially the most vulnerable and to be self- sacrificing has shone through during the current Covid-19 crisis and even the BLM controversy. For every selfish or despicable act that is highlighted in the media we can all point to people who behave in exactly the opposite way. We can see this in the people working in care homes and hospitals; volunteers helping their local community; technology teachers making PPE or people like Marcus Rashford, using his platform as a famous footballer to speak out on behalf of the powerless. This is equally true of our school community. I am full of admiration for the way that we have pulled together, students, families and staff, to make the best of this situation. As we start to see more students in school it is increasingly clear how important human interaction is to our well-being and our capacity to learn.

  • Never Forget | Page 1
    Never Forget | Page 1 Never Forget By: Jack Greiner on November 13, 2018 on graydon.law This post is admittedly out of my lane. It’s not about a legal issue or the law even. But I can’t stop watching this clip from the November 10 broadcast of Saturday Night Live. As many readers likely know, in the November 3 broadcast of SNL, Pete Davidson made a dumb joke about Republican Congressional candidate Lt. Commander Dan Crenshaw’s eye patch. Never a great idea to make fun of a person’s missing eye, but especially given that Crenshaw lost the eye to an IED while on active duty in Afghanistan. Davidson was, to put it mildly, ripped on social media, and any number of outlets. But the guy who had the real beef – Lt. Com. Crenshaw took it in stride. So much so, that he appeared on the November 10 broadcast to accept Davidson’s apology. I watched the very first broadcast of SNL in October of 1975 and I’ve watched it off and on ever since. This may be my favorite moment for a number of reasons: 1. Davidson’s apology was sincere. I’m sure he was under pressure to do it, but there was no “if I offended anyone” qualifications. He said he made a poor choice and he took full responsibility; 2. It was funny. Lt. Com. Crenshaw has tremendous timing. When his cell phone ring tone played an Ariana Grande song and he asked Davidson “do you know her?” I almost fell off my chair.

  • Make America America Again
    # 2020/26 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2020/26/make-america-america-again Spike Lees »Da 5 Bloods« über schwarze Veteranen des Vietnamkriegs Make America America Again Von Daniel Moersener Spike Lees »Da 5 Bloods« zeigt, dass Afroamerikaner nicht den Vietnamkrieg brauchten, um traumatisiert zu werden. Wenn es eine Sache an Spike Lees Vietnamkriegsfilm »Da 5 Bloods« zu bemängeln gibt, dann einzig und allein, dass ihm als Produktion von Netflix der Start im Kino versagt bleibt. Das ist freilich nicht Spike Lee selbst anzulasten, sondern der derzeitigen Mutlosigkeit Hollywoods. Diese Mutlosigkeit ist es, die nun auch Lee, wie zuvor schon Martin Scorsese, in die Arme der Streaming-Anbieter treibt. Der Kinosaal und »Da 5 Bloods«, sie hätten ­einander redlich verdient. Denn Spike Lee präsentiert sich in Bestform und springt virtuos zwischen dem Vietnam der späten Sechziger und der Gegenwart und verwebt Archivaufnahmen, digitale Aufnahmetechnik, Fotografien, Super- 8-Aufnahmen und 16mm-Film miteinander. Anstatt – apropos Scorsese – die Hauptdarsteller für Rückblenden digital verjüngen zu lassen, setzt Spike Lee sie unverändert sowohl in den Gegenwartsszenen wie auch in denen der Vergangenheit ein. Das klingt zwar gewagt, geht aber gerade deshalb als ästhetische Strategie voll auf. Die Vereinigten Staaten, so wird im Film gesagt, führten seit ihrer Gründung einen Krieg gegen sich selbst, und dieser Krieg scheine bis heute anzudauern. Drei Minuten, länger braucht Spike Lee nicht, um in der rasant montierten Eröffnungssequenz von »Da 5 Bloods« ein Panorama der Vietnamkriegsära in den USA zu entwerfen. Interviewfetzen und Statements von Muhammad Ali, Bobby Seale, Angela Davis und Malcolm X werden mit Ansprachen Lyndon B.
