Cleveland Plain Dealer ^
| Mark Dawidziak
The arrival of the British crime drama "The Frankenstein Chronicles" on Netflix certainly is well-timed. The
series, which becomes available on the streaming service on Tuesday, Feb. 20, is hitting America on top of the 200th anniversary of the book that inspired it, Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein." It is impossible to overstate the impact and influence of the book published anonymously in early 1818 when its author was just 20 years old. Subtitled "The Modern Prometheus," Shelley's profound tale typically is classified as a horror novel. And it is. Indeed, by a long shot, it is the first of three books...

Dallas, Texas salon owner Shelley Luther has become the face of the movement to free the nation from the oppressive lockdowns imposed by despotic governors and mayors. She

But Luther was liberated May 7...

DB Daily Update ^

This is what leadership looks like. I
decided not to cover this earlier in hopes Governor Abbott would decide to intervene, and sure enough, he just did. Most are aware that a Dallas-area salon owner named Shelley Luther was sentenced to a week in prison yesterday by an abusive Dallas judge, after she defied Abbott’s order that her business was “non-essential” and opened it up briefly last week. Police intervened, cited her and ordered her to appear in court. During her hearing on Tuesday, the judge in the case, State District Court Judge Eric Moye, agreed with her that the...

| 5/6/2020 | Andrea Widburg
On Tuesday, Texas may have created the anti-lockdown movement’s first martyr when a Dallas judge sentenced hairstylist Shelley Luther to a week in prison for the crime of trying to provide for her own and her employee’s families. Texas
is home to 28,995,881 people. It’s had 32,879 diagnosed Wuhan virus cases (that is, 0.11% of the population got diagnosed) and 890 virus deaths (0.003% of the population). Most of the cases are linked to nursing homes or people with co-morbidities. Even in nursing homes, though, things needn't be so dire. One doctor’s experiment shows that early intervention with the hydroxychloroquine...

Shelley Berman, Stand-Up Comic Who Skewered Modern Life, Dies at 92

| September 1, 2017 | Peter Keepnews
Shelley Berman, whose brittle persona and anxiety-ridden observations helped redefine stand-up comedy in the late 1950s and early ’60s, died early Friday morning at his home in Bell Canyon, Calif. He was 92. His
publicist, Glenn Schwartz, said the cause was complications of Alzheimer’s disease. Mr. Berman, one of the first comedians to have as much success on records as in person or on television, was in the vanguard of a movement that transformed the comedy monologue from a rapid-fire string of gags to something more subtle, more thoughtful and more personal. The comedians of the preceding generation, Gerald Nachman...
