REMEMBERING MOE HOWARD

Who died this date in 1975---Moses Harry Horwitz (June 19, 1897 – May 4, 1975), known professionally as Moe Howard, was an American actor and comedian best known as the de facto leader of the Three Stooges, the farce comedy team who starred in motion pictures and television for four decades. That group originally started out as Ted Healy and His Stooges, an act that toured the vaudeville circuit.

Moe's distinctive hairstyle came about when he was a boy and cut off his curls with a pair of scissors, producing a ragged shape approximating a bowl cut (CLICK ON THE PHOTO).

REMEMBERING SUZY PARKER

Who died this date in 2003.....

A fab old post from our friends at European Film Star Postcards:

American model and actress Suzy Parker (1932–2003) was known in the 1950s as the most photographed woman in the world and is now considered as the very first Supermodel. The red-headed beauty defined glamour in the 1950s and in 1956, at the height of her modelling career, became the first model to earn $100,000 per year. During the late 1950s and early 1960s, Parker also became the glamorous star of several Hollywood productions. READ AND SEE MORE HERE.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: SWEDEN--ONCE MOCKED FOR ITS COVID STRATEGY--NOW HAS ONE OF THE LOWEST COVID MORTALITY RATES IN EUROPE, JON MILTIMORE

Early in the coronavirus pandemic, I asked a simple question. Could Sweden’s laissez-faire approach to the coronavirus actually work?

Unlike its European neighbors and virtually all US states, the Swedes had opted to not shut down the economy. The country of 10 million people took what was at first described as “a lighter touch.”

While other countries closed schools and businesses, life in Sweden stayed pretty normal. Kids went to public pools and libraries, while adults sipped wine and had lunch in local bistros. Though mass gatherings were prohibited, children kept going to school, though students older than 16 were encouraged to attend classes remotely. The Swedish government also encouraged people to work remotely and asked people over 70 to isolate themselves, if possible.

For taking this approach, Sweden—and the architect of its public health policies, Anders Tegnell—was widely condemned. Consider just a sampling of headlines...READ MORE AT https://www.themainewire.com/2022/03/sweden-once-mocked-for-its-covid-strategy-now-has-one-of-the-lowest-covid-mortality-rates-in-europe/

FAUCI: DISDAIN FOR THE RULE OF LAW AND MORE

Anthony Fauci is "surprised and disappointed" with this week's federal court ruling that overturned the mask mandate on planes, trains, and public transportation.

That's not because the president's chief medical advisor disagrees with the substance of Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle's ruling. No: Fauci thinks the problem is that the courts have any power over public health edicts at all.

"Those types of things really are the purview of the [Centers for Disease Control]. This is a public health issue," Fauci told CNN's Kasie Hunt on Thursday. "We are concerned about that—about courts getting involved in things that are unequivocally public health decisions. I mean, this is a CDC issue; it should not be a court issue."

Considering how much of his life he has spent working within or alongside the federal government, Fauci's belief that the CDC ought to exist outside of the constitutional limitations applied to government actions is stunning.

FOR COLLECTORS OF DE RESZKE CIGARETTE CARDS

Again! It's always a little exciting when we can identify or shed more light on a reader's flea market find.....

And so.....From our friends at European Film Star Postcards: For Collectors of De Reszke Cigarette Cards 

We continue our Saturday posts on British film postcard series with De Reszke postcards (CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL LESLIE HOWARD AND MERLE OBERON). De Reske was a, now forgotten, British cigarette brand. It was named after Jean de Reszke (1850-1925), a famous Polish opera star of the late 19th century, and advertised as 'the Aristocrat of Cigarettes'....In 1927, Millhoff sold out to Godrey Phillips, an international company which was a fellow competitor. In the early 1930s, Godfrey Phillips Associated brands published this series of hand-coloured film star postcards.

A special request from a resident who was lucky enough to find a few of these at a local tag sale....

FROM OUR FRIENDS AT EUROPEAN FILM STAR POSTCARDS....

New acquisitions: Kwatta collectors cards from Belgium

Recently I found a series of Belgian collectors cards at Delcampe, which were published in or around 1950 by the chocolate factory Kwatta in Bois-d'Haine. During the late 1940s, Kwatta had produced sets of Film Star trading cards in black and white, which were issued with the Kwatta chocolates. These cards in colour were part of the C-series. At your local shop you could buy an album with the format 12 X 17,5 cm for 100 cards. The album was named Ciné Stars. On the cover was a lion, which referred to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

MAINSTREAM MEDIA'S DOWNFALL, GO WOKE, GO BROKE, STEVE FORBES ON THE DOWNFALL OF CNN+, NETFLIX

Echoing a comment by Elon Musk, Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief of Forbes Media, told Newsmax on Tuesday that CNN+'s downfall and Netflix's dwindling stock price are because of their "wokey content.''

"What you see happening with Netflix, and I think Elon Musk really put it very well, [is] people don't like all this wokey content ... a lot of it [is] c**p. And that's why Netflix is losing subscribers," Forbes said on "Eric Bolling: The Balance." READ MORE HERE.

BIG SISTER IS WATCHING YOU

President Biden came under fire Thursday for the creation of a “dystopian” disinformation bureau created under his Homeland Security department, which critics are blasting as just a way for the government to police free speech online.

Conservatives slammed the Department of Homeland Security’s Orwellian new “Disinformation Governance Board” – with some suggesting the timing is convenient given Elon Musk vowed to make Twitter a free speech haven after his $44 billion takeover of the social media platform notorious for selectively censoring right-leaning points of view.
