Ever since the Pirates of Caribbean movies burst onto the scene and brought in enormous sums of money, Disney has been trying to replicate their success. The biggest profile effort was 2013’s The Lone Ranger, which reunited Pirates star Johnny Depp with director Gore Verbinski, who helmed the first three Pirates movies.
Now Disney is trying once again to launch a major new franchise. And for inspiration, they’ve gone all the way back to the 17th century. The Hollywood Reporter says that Disney is planning a new action-adventure film based on the classic novel, Don Quixote.
The Man of La Mancha
Image Credit: Amazon
The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha (as it is fully known) is a Spanish novel originally published in two parts, in 1605 and 1615. Writer Miguel de Cervantes wrote the satirical novel.
The plot involves a Spanish aristocrat (or hidalgo) who is swept up in reading numerous chivalrous romance novels. Alonso Quixano eventually goes insane and decides that he is a knight. He adopts the name Don Quixote of La Mancha. Along with his portly squire Sancho Panza (actually a lowly farmer), he sets out to perform chivalrous deeds. To Don Quixote, innkeepers become lords, windmills are actually dragons, and the peasant girls he encounters are ladies-in-waiting.
From The Hunger Games to Medieval Spain
The Hunger Games screenwriter Billy Ray is writing the new adaptation. Ray was nominated for an Academy Award for his script for Captain Phillips. Gordan Gray is producing the new Don Quixote along with Ray. Disney has partnered with Gray in the past on a number of inspirational sports dramas, like The Rookie, Invincible, McFarland USA, and Million Dollar Arm.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the plan is for the film to feature the same style of the Pirates of the Caribbean series. In other words, expect a lot of over-the-top action married with plenty of comedy, as well.
The Man Who Killed Don Quixote
Ironically, Pirates star Johnny Depp almost starred in a Don Quixote film himself. Director Terry Gilliam (12 Monkeys, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) has been trying to film The Man Who Killed Don Quixote for 16 years now.
It’s a loose adaptation of the original novel, with a time-travel element thrown in. Depp was cast as Toby Grisoni, a 21-century marketing executive who is thrown back in time. He becomes the sidekick of Don Quixote.
Filming began in 2000, but production was soon shut down due to a number of problems. The set was flooded and producers were unable to secure insurance. French actor Jean Rochefort, who had been cast as Quixote, had to exit the film due to illness.
In 2008, Gilliam started pre-production on the film again. This time Quixote would be played by Robert Duvall, with Ewan McGregor taking over for Johnny Depp. Unfortunately, the film’s funding fell through only a month later.
In 2016, plans were announced to finally make The Man Who Killed Don Quixote. Michael Palin would play Quixote with Star Wars‘ Adam Driver in the Johnny Depp role. Just as filming was to begin this month, though, the financing fell through once again. Gilliam isn’t giving up, however, saying, “I will be dead before the film is.”
There’s no word on when Disney’s big budget Don Quixote will hit theaters. Given the length of time these type of productions require, we likely won’t see it earlier than 2018 or 2019.

Over the last decade, I've moved home almost as often as I've written books and the only constant about my writing environment has been my cats.
First, there was Felix, who part African wild cat. He was a day-old kitten when my mum rescued him from the streets of Mozambique and smuggled him into Zimbabwe on a light aircraft. A year or so later, I brought him to London, where he grew and grew until he was the size of a small leopard. He and I were inseparable. At the time I was living in a south-east London flat and I wrote with Felix lying on my desk watching me with his huge green eyes, like a leopard bodyguard.
One wintry day, I was walking down the road when an image of a girl on a giraffe popped into my head. I thought: Wouldn't it be the coolest thing on earth if you could actually ride a giraffe? When I was a child in Zimbabwe I actually had a pet giraffe and, right there on the street, the idea for a children's book came into my head.
In the attic study, Felix watched as I feverishly embarked on this new project. I wrote The White Giraffe in one intense month. The rejections came almost as quickly. I had to sell my flat to survive. I rented a flat on Porthmeor Beach in St Ives. The rejections kept coming. Convinced that my giraffe story had something special about it, I kept rewriting it. Felix sat on the windowsill and growled at seagulls.
Returning to London after four months of sun and sea was one of the hardest moves I've ever made. In Cornwall, close to nature, I felt a freedom I hadn't experienced since leaving Africa. London felt dark, closed in. Felix brooded too, as we were forced to move three times in rapid succession. There were compensations. I found a new agent and six months later five publishers bid for my memoir, Rainbow's End, and a month later Orion gave me a four-book deal for my White Giraffe series. For the first time in my life, I felt like a real writer.
Two years later, when I was in the midst of writing The Last Leopard, Felix became desperately ill and died. I vowed never to get another animal, but that resolution lasted less than a month. Writing didn't feel the same without Felix on my desk. Like everything else, it felt sort of pointless. But what to do? Felix had been so extraordinary that the idea of an ordinary cat, one who didn't engage with me or watch over me, filled me with despondency. I read up on different cat breeds and decided that Bengals sounded most like Felix, both in build and in character.
When the RSPCA's Ashford Cattery in Kent had an influx of Bengals, I went in search of a perfect cat. They had a dazzling array from which to choose. There were snow leopard Bengals with blue eyes, an orange one with black spots and vivid green eyes that looked like a cheetah, and other majestic ones with fancy patterns. There was only one ordinary one – a small, chunky Bengal with plain tabby markings and an annoyingly persistent meow. I cuddled each cat in turn and only took the tabby one out of his cage to be fair. Of all of them, he purred the loudest. Still, I rejected him out of hand as too dull and noisy.
While I was down the other end of the run looking at the magnificent ones, however, something amazing happened. The small Bengal jumped down from his high cage, snatched a box of treats from the pocket of a volunteer who was crouching on the floor, absorbed with another cat, then leapt back into his cage with the treat box between his paws. The whole thing showed such breathtaking audacity, athleticism and intelligence that I was totally blown away. I knew right then that he was the only cat for me.
I don't think Felix would be offended if I said that Max turned out to be the best, smartest, most loving cat in the universe. If he's not bringing me felt mice presents, he is asleep on his back in his bed beside my computer, his spotty belly exposed. So far Max has presided over the writing of The Elephant's Tale, four Laura Marlin mysteries and The Obituary Writer, my first adult novel. Somehow, he makes even the toughest writing day better.

If you have no assets, you are what is often called “judgment proof.” In theory, the credit card company could sue you, but they would collect nothing on their claim. They also cannot come after your children unless they co-signed the credit card or accepted liability in some other fashion. Generally, if you contact the credit card company and explain the situation they’ll back off.

Domestic Violence (DV) affects all regardless of race, religion, gender, and socio-economic groups.
Domestic Abuse or intimate partner violence can be described as a pattern of behavior in a relationship that is used to gain control over an intimate partner.
This could be in form of sexual, physical, economical, and or psychological actions that dehumanize another individual.
October commerates National Domestic Violence Awareness month, which sheds light on survivors and victims of domestic violence abuse.
This month amplifies the narrative and stories of many who experienced trauma in hopes of spreading the right awareness and resources for anyone in need of support.
This is a conversation that needs to receive attentiveness as there are so many people involved in a DV situation and no one knows and the victim does not recognize the signs themselves. DV education is essential and communitities coming together to combat domestic abuse is imperative.
An Afro-Borcia DV advocate Melanie Hernandez is doing the work in the Chicago community. With so many communities affected by the cause, Black and Latinx women are highly impacted because of the lack of access and support.
As a survivor herself, she uses her platform and space to provide a safe space for women for victims and survivors to feel represented and most of all supported. DV activists like Melanie, play a significant role as this cause can result in unfortunate circumstances like death and or long-term mental disorders.
Melanie’s work is saving so many lives and as we close out this month, we celebrate her efforts and strength in her community to raise consciousness on DV education.
If you or anyone you know is currently in a harmful or DV situation, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline 1800.799.SAFE (7233) and/or call 911.
Who is Melanie and who does she encompass?
I would say Melanie is a juxtaposition of advocacy and a Black woman who is unapologetically herself.
How do you embrace your Afro-Latina identity?
I embrace it in how I dress, how I speak, I thank my ancestors every day, I honor our Afro music just about every day.
Have you ever struggled with not feeling Latina or Black enough?
As a kid, I didn’t understand how I looked like my Black friends but was told I wasn’t like them so it was confusing. I struggled with liking my nose as a kid because people around me made comments about wider noses. Sounds silly but it really does stay engraved in your mind.
How was your upbringing growing up Afro-Puerto Rican? If so how did you handle feeling like you had to choose?
I didn’t know I was Afro Puerto Rican until I was a teen. It wasn’t talked about much even though it was in our food, especially my grandmother’s. I always was under the impression that we had to be super proud to be Puerto Rican but they often left the Afro side out.
How did you begin your work in domestic violence advocacy?
I lived in a DV shelter for 4 months after escaping an abusive relationship. That was where I met some of the most selfless women and knew that when I got out I would want to help in some way as well.
How do you use your social media platform to spread awareness?
I use my platform by sharing resources, I also make videos speaking on different issues surrounding DV, amplifying the voices of other advocates doing the work, I also started a clothing brand that focuses on spreading a healthy word on relationships.
How has domestic violence affected Black and Latinx communities?
Black and Latinx communities suffer the most because of a lack of resources. They often are forgotten. There is a big mistrust of law enforcement so a lot of Black/Latinx women don’t feel comfortable reporting abuse. They often feel like there is no way out because of this. That’s why it’s important to see women who look like them, who come from where they come from encouraging them and doing the work.
What are ways one can recognize early signs of abuse?
Recognize when someone is being controlled. It can start off small but will usually escalate. Pay attention to how they speak to you when annoyed or angry, listen to your gut. Are you afraid to say or move a certain way because it feels like walking on eggshells?
What are some useful tools one can use to leave/heal from an abusive relationship?
Always have some type of safety plan if you plan on leaving. Making sure you leave in the safest way possible is crucial. Tell someone you trust that you plan ongoing. If you have nobody to tell you can always call the DV hotline 1(800)799-SAFE and explain your situation and they will share resources
What are some words of advice you can give a victim wanting to leave but has nowhere to go?
That you are not doing anything the “wrong” way. It’s not easy leaving a potentially dangerous situation. But that it is absolutely possible to leave. There is always a resource.
How does your mission help service the Chicago community?
I’ve met some incredible folks in this city who help my mission and I’m grateful to be able to share those resources with my people in this city who need them. The goal is to make the women in this city safer and I plan on continuing to try my best at that.

A man set fire to a gate at a stables before hitting the owner, a court has heard.
Jamie Lee Law, 26, admitted to starting a blaze at the private stables at Fen Road, Stickford on February along with Ian Paul Chambers, 43.
The pair were spotted at the stables by owner Nick Best on CCTV and he raced to the scene, before he was attacked.
The court heard Law reacted angrily to this and swung at Mr Best, knocking his glasses off.
Mr Best then tried to defend himself by letting off the fire extinguisher he was carrying twice, before Law snapped his glasses in half.
Prosecuting, Kate Minihane said that Nick Best and partner Lydia Hayes believed it was a revenge attack.
She said he received an alert on his phone at 7.20pm on February 28 and was able to see on the CCTV, which was installed as a previous incident, that two people in the area of the gate to the stables.
It was told that Mr Best and Ms Hayes immediately left for the location and called the police, found a pile of lit conifer cuttings against the gate, which he was able to put out with a fire extinguisher he had in his vehicle.
Ms Minihane said Mr Best saw the headlights of an oncoming vehicle and thought it was the police, so he went towards it when it stopped a little way from the gate, before realising it wasn't the police and was probably the offenders.
She said he recognised one of them as Jamie Law and during the subsequent attack, during which Ms Hayes took the keys from Law and Chambers' vehicle, Law swung at Mr Best, knocking his glasses off.
Mr Best then let off the fire extinguisher he was holding in a bid to defend himself - at which point Law deliberately picked up Mr Best's glasses and snapped them in half.
She said the couple believed it to be a revenge attack, although this was denied by Law's defence solicitor, as he had been arrested for a previous incident at the stables and they felt they could no longer keep horses there because of a fear of further attacks.
Mitigating, Beris Brickles said Law, who has 53 previous offences, pleaded guilty on the basis that the decision was not a revenge attack and was essentially the depositing of litter and the decision to set fire to it was only taken that afternoon, using the fuel from an old lawnmower to start the fire.
He said Law denied he had been involved in any earlier incidents at the stables.
Ian Paul Chambers, 43 of Hagnaby Road, Stickford admitted arson and Jamie Lee Law 26, of the same address, also admitted arson, as well as assault by beating and criminal damage, when they appeared for sentence at Boston Magistrates' Court.

After hearing from the Probation Service, Mark Hudson, for Chambers, urged the magistrates to follow their recommendations.
The magistrates told Law that in view of the serious nature of his offending he would be sentenced to a total of 16 weeks in prison but it would be suspended for 18 months, and he was also ordered to carry out 15 rehabilitation days and the Thinking Skills programme and pay £563 in compensation.
Chambers was ordered to carry out 120 hours of unpaid work for the community and observe six rehabilitation days and to pay £170 in costs and charges.
They also issued a restraining order to prevent either man from contacting either Mr Best or Ms Hayes and not to go within 500 metres of the property until further notice.

I felt the following article on the BBC website, “Why do people often vote against their own interests?”, based on the first of two radio programmes collectively called Turkeys voting for Christmas, offered an instructive example for the young writer or broadcaster who aspires to produce material for the BBC. I hope that a few selected quotes will provide some useful tips.
Political scientist Dr David Runciman looks at why is there often such deep opposition to reforms that appear to be of obvious benefit to voters.
Focus now, on that “appears to be”, for it is masterful. It – er – appears to be a marker of impartiality. But what it actually does is get that impartiality tick-box done and out the way with a quick, grey, forgettable phrase. The question of whether the appearance of obvious benefit is correct is not subsequently addressed; it is simply assumed.
Last year, in a series of “town-hall meetings” across the country, Americans got the chance to debate President Obama’s proposed healthcare reforms.
What happened was an explosion of rage and barely suppressed violence.
At this point the radio programme has some people shouting. (Note for the style guide: people never shout at left wing demonstrations because of barely suppressed violence; they are just passionate.) The great thing about the phrase “barely suppressed violence” is that it suggests violence but you don’t have to provide any evidence for it. No one accused of being full of “barely suppressed violence” can disprove it.
But it is striking that the people who most dislike the whole idea of healthcare reform – the ones who think it is socialist, godless, a step on the road to a police state – are often the ones it seems designed to help.
The inclusion of the word “godless” here is exquisite. Godliness or the lack of it has not greatly featured as part of advocacy for or against Obama’s plans for healthcare. (In fact my personal impression is that most of those bringing religion into the issue are liberal Christians saying that Obamacare is what Jesus would do. Such rightwingers who have opposed Obamacare on religious grounds have mostly done so in the belief that it would mean more abortions.) The word “godless” functions merely as a probe to twitch the right neurons when mentally picturing those who oppose. Note that the two phrases on either side of “godless”, the two concepts that have indeed featured in the debate to a significant digree, are never analysed.
Why are so many American voters enraged by attempts to change a horribly inefficient system that leaves them with premiums they often cannot afford?
Why are they manning the barricades to defend insurance companies that routinely deny claims and cancel policies?
A lesser article might actually try looking at some potential answers to this question. For example, could it be because they suspect that the insurance companies are happy enough to take a bit of public abuse from Obama in exchange for a whole new pool of captive customers? However the author here knows better than to take that path. Note also that this sentence frames opposition to Obamacare as being a defence of insurance companies.
It might be tempting to put the whole thing down to what the historian Richard Hofstadter back in the 1960s called “the paranoid style” of American politics, in which God, guns and race get mixed into a toxic stew of resentment at anything coming out of Washington.
Admire the ju-jitsu with which the author gives us a pleasing whiff of paranoia by warning about that scary toxic stew of right wing paranoia which has been bubbling poisonously in the background for decades.
All that we have seen so far was merely the appetiser to this superb bit of technique:
If people vote against their own interests, it is not because they do not understand what is in their interest or have not yet had it properly explained to them.
It sounds so good, doesn’t it? It appeals to the disquiet that even the most liberal reader might have felt in reading the patronising BBC coverage of the tea parties. You think you are going to get a bracing defence of the tea partiers as being independent adults. This defence could be along the lines that even right wingers sometimes vote for what they believe is the wider good against their selfish interests, or it could be along the lines that they do not believe that what is claimed to be in their interest really is in their interest, and here’s why.
Of course no such argument is actually put forward. That might involve talking to these ghastly people and even worse, listening to them. Instead we have a portrait of the Republican voter as an overgrown teenager in a sulk against the grown-ups:
They do it because they resent having their interests decided for them by politicians who think they know best.
There is nothing voters hate more than having things explained to them as though they were idiots.
And then the rest of the article explains that they are idiots.
UPDATE: There are some very good comments to this post. Please take a look in particular at the comment from Martin. You know the anecdote in the article about how Bush responded to Gore’s sober figures with nothing better than a silly little crowd-pleasing quip? It turns out, if you go to the source (as I should have thought of doing myself), that Bush went straight on to give some figures of his own.
“a step on the road to a police state”
This is correct, as Britain has shown, where smoking/drinking/”junk food” are targeted because they supposedly cost the NHS, and the taxpayer, money.
The article also has another distortion. Here’s a quote he used.
He uses the following exchange from the first presidential debate between Al Gore and George Bush in 2000 to illustrate the perils of trying to explain to voters what will make them better off:
Gore: “Under the governor’s plan, if you kept the same fee for service that you have now under Medicare, your premiums would go up by between 18% and 47%, and that is the study of the Congressional plan that he’s modelled his proposal on by the Medicare actuaries.”
Bush: “Look, this is a man who has great numbers. He talks about numbers.
<!– S IBOX –> <img src=”http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/shared/img/o.gif” border=”0″/> LISTEN TO THE PROGRAMME <!– S ILIN –> Turkeys Voting for Christmas <!– E ILIN –> BBC Radio 4, Wednesday 27 January at 2045 GMT Or listen via the <!– S ILIN –> iPlayer <!– E ILIN –> <!– E IBOX –>
“I’m beginning to think not only did he invent the internet, but he invented the calculator. It’s fuzzy math. It’s trying to scare people in the voting booth.”
Mr Gore was talking sense and Mr Bush nonsense – but Mr Bush won the debate. With statistics, the voters just hear a patronising policy wonk, and switch off.
However, the full comment given by Bush was not included (funny that).
GOV. BUSH: Look. This is a man who’s got great numbers. He talks about numbers. I’m beginning to think not only did he invent the Internet but he invented the calculator. (Laughter.) It’s fuzzy math. It’s a scaring — trying to scare people in the voting booth. Under my tax plan, that he continues to criticize, I said a third. The federal government should take no more than a third of anybody’s check.
But I also drop the bottom rate from 15 percent to 10 percent, because by far the vast majority of that help goes to people at the bottom end of the economic ladder. If you’re a family of four in Massachusetts making $50,000, you get a 50 percent cut in the federal income taxes you pay. It’s from $4,000 to about $2,000. Now, the difference in our plans is I want that $2,000 to go to you.
If you take a quote out of context or don’t include it all no wonder it makes no sense. I just love liberals, they are SO arrogant.
I can think of a stronger word than ‘arrogant’ to describe this chicanery .. ooh, I’ve just used it!
The first few seconds of the radio programme are stupendously atrocious.
Scott Brown : “this bill is not being debated openly and fairly”
Radio 4 presenter: “Despite what he [Brown] says Americans did get a chance to debate president Obama’s proposed healthcare reforms in a series of town hall meetings”
Scott Brown was talking about Obama’s broken promise of showing the legislative debate on C-span, an issue that showed the Washington elite in all their pompous glory days prior to the election and helped swing the deep blue state of Massachusetts red. US politicians can’t call their President a liar so this was a subtle way for Brown to get his message across to the state and the country. The BBC have twisted Brown’s words to make it look like the Republican is the liar by making the obviously false assumption that Americans themselves were somehow gagged in debating healthcare.
US voters are being entirely rational in being against the current healthcare reform. Most of the 65% with private insurance get the best medical care in the world and don’t want this threatened by government; the 20% with Medicare don’t want their bloated system cut; many of the 10% without insurance choose this option and don’t want the threat of fines and then imprisonment over their heads while the 5% of illegals wouldn’t be covered yet still would be against the system since extra employer health regulation could see them deported. Only a loony left-wing twit could consider opposition to Obamacare irrational yet that’s the default position for the ‘intellectual’ idiots at radio 4.
The BBC didn’t invent the wheel. There are plenty of left wing examples of groups voting against their apparent best interest. Queers for Palestine should head the list but various Christian groups defending Islam, feminists defending the burkha. In fact the entire left-Islamic alliance would appear to be an example of voting against apparent interests.
Well said, Natalie.
Leaving aside the question of why the BBC should be wasting the license fee with their relentless promotion of a domestic policy of a foreign country, a major problem here is that all BBC reports leave out one key point in the objections of people like me: it’s going to increase the deficit even more, which is the exact opposite of what even the President says we should be doing right now.
But the BBC doesn’t want you to know any of that. Actually, I suspect that the Beeboids tasked with covering this issue don’t know themselves. I believe their personal political biases have caused them to dismiss out of hand the fact that the number one objection at the Tea Party protests is that this is the wrong time to be adding $1 Trillion and more to our debt, and will actually (as Martin points out) harm senior citizens, for something that nobody on the Left has actually shown will decrease our costs.
The BBC says that we hate being spoken to like idiots, which is true. Irony not understood at Broadcasting House, obviously.
We also don’t like being lied to or tricked. For example, one of the key claims of The Obamessiah and supporters is that, under His Health Care Plan For Us, we would be able to keep our current choice of physicians and insurers, and that there will be no government interference with our choice of treatment. Turns out this was a lie, and The Obamessiah just admitted it:
Obama: Health Care Bill “Might Have Violated Pledge” On Keeping Some Doctors And Insurers
The BBC doesn’t want you to know that. People like me have been saying this all along, and the fact that this would be the case has been know for some time, but the BBC has ignored it.
The Beeboids have decided that His Health Care Plan For Us is the way to go, and that those of us who object are fools or worse. Insulting, condescending, dishonest, and biased to the core. The BBC just continues to actively promote the domestic policy of a foreign leader, hides information from you, and uses Saul Alinsky tactics to smear the opposition.
A reason why it is in the self-interest of voters to man “the barricades to defend insurance companies”
Medicare Denies More Insurance Claims Than the Private Sector
Oops! The idea that that insurance companies profiteer also looks like bunk:
Profit Margin: Health Insurance Industry Ranks #86
Fair point, but health insurance companies would do much better if they were run by the actuaries rather than accountants and physicians who quit practicing medicine.
My feeling is that, although it occasionally still tries to prop him up, Gordon Brown is such a permanent disaster that the BBC’s corporate heart is just not in it anymore. Get rid of Gordon, then it can finally have a right go at the bloo*y tories once again, like in the good old times of Maggie’s government.
Now, Obama is another matter. Touch him and you deeply wound the feelings of countless Beeb hacks who still think he is the embodiment of all they believe in. So, they are a bit sensitive about him. Ouch! Can’t you just feel the pain?
Quite agree – a new low in the BBC’s wretched bias, but it’s instructive. I honetly think these Lefties just *cannot* understand other points of view. For people who claim to “care” they’re not much cop at empathy. Maybe people don’t want socialised medicine becasue they realise that – far from being an unarguable good, for them *personally* – it has many downsides. We in the UK see that downside very clearly – the NHS is very cheap, for those who do NOT pay; for those who do pay, taxpayers, it’s damned expensive. I coudl get top notch health insurance for me and my family for a lot less than the chunk of my tax that is spent on the NHS. The BBC always insists on working out how much it costs on a per capita basis, rather than per payee. I wonder why….
Oh and yes, the Bush quote – downright dishonest and distorting reporting. Hey – The BBC: Propaganda and plain lies, it’s what we do.
Good point sir. I have never seen the cost of the NHS per payee ! I reckon thats something they would rather avoid in case it gives the proles cause for thought.
I caught part of a Radio 4 news item last week about home births and how every Mother now (or soon will) have the right to them. Now I can understand why a woman would want one as I personally stay the hell away from hospitals unless I can’t avoid it. However at no point in the item did anyone mention how much this would cost the country or how it would be paid for. Neither was there any suggestion that if you wanted a service like this then perhaps you should have to pay for it.
Last I checked, the NHS cost about 10% of GDP, so a fair rough guess is that it costs any taxpayer about 10% of their salary. Huge.
Of course, the real point to make when people talk about cost is that it makes no sense to compare the total cost of British healthcare and American healthcare, because British healthcare has one big invoice which has to be paid by the Treasury every year whilst the individual costs of American healthcare are never actually added together into a total in any real sense. Caring about the total cost of American healthcare is like obsessing over how much the Danish spend on milk.
The absence, in this Beeboid article, of a summary of what the arguments may be of those who oppose the Democrats so-called “facts” is telling but not surprising.From the left side, there are no possible vaild arguments against their dictats.
The use of those little smearing words as identified by this site, rather than an objective presentation and attempt to understand beyond amateur psychologising about why people may not be able to comprehend why socialism is good for them is one reason I try and avoid a discussion of political issues with the UK’s so-called intellectual elite.
Also, who exactly is this Dr “Rancidman”, a political scientist”? Well, apparently he works at Cambridge University, and has written for the Guardian per Wiki.
Need we say anymore to understand what perspective this man may have to say on those who oppose the imposition of more socialistic dogma?
Superb dissection of BBC bias, both in the Contribution and comments. This site really should be linked to by anyone who wants to keep Britain a democracy. The BBC has been eating away at our democracy for so long now that the foundations are now tottering.
Loved the comment in the piece about deploying language to get the correct preset nuerons twitching. People’s brains work by nerves and neurons. Your average BBC propagandist our brains work by nerds and morons. After 30 years of relentless and ever increasing propaganda, the mind of the British public has been addled so much that the BBC has acheived its objective with many – people who can’t think for themselves, or have given up trying. Not here though. This is as good an evisceration of BBC bias as I’ve seen for a long time.
Sorry, I meant to add a link (below) to an article by a US Professor who gives a clear exposition of the implication of certain passages in the Obamacare legislation.
The author, Dr John Lewis, was on BBC radio a couple of months ago as part of a panel, but needless to say, his viewpoints were skirted over.
Read and weep for Americans.
Those crazy Americans. Imagine thinking that mass state appropriation of private assets is a bad idea.

ARUP’s new autonomous intelligent vehicle (AIV) helps its coworkers in the lab by transporting specimens to storage, freeing up staff to focus on other tasks. Here, a team member unloads samples delivered by the AIV.
Each time ARUP’s latest autonomous intelligent vehicle, or AIV, slides into one of its green-and-white-stickered parking spots at ARUP Laboratories, it announces its arrival by breaking into song.
It’s really just four notes—one familiar bar from the theme song of the 1960s Saturday morning cartoon, “The Jetsons,” and an homage to the futuristic family’s robot maid.
ARUP’s AIV isn’t doing housework, though. It’s picking up tested patient samples at a zippy pace and delivering them to storage on a 24/7 loop.
It’s a monotonous but important errand that the AIV has been performing since late June on a route that goes from Core Labs A and B to the Immunology, Automated Endocrinology, and Serologic Hepatitis/Retrovirus Labs in ARUP’s new state-of-the-art laboratory facility and across a sky bridge to an adjacent building.
The mission at each stop: to make the job of laboratorians a bit easier. By all accounts, as a new teammate, the AIV is a seamless and helpful fit.
“This new AIV has really lessened the burden on our staff because they no longer have to transport specimens from the new building to the storage area,” said Bryan Stromberg, group manager of Immunology Group II. “This allows staff members to focus on other duties. The AIV is a big hit with the lab.”
This isn’t ARUP’s first use of an AIV in the lab, but it is its most successful, said Clint Wilcox, operations director of Support Services. ARUP first began adding robotic devices to the mix more than 10 years ago, but those early attempts were hit or miss, he said.
“We have narrow hallways, a lot of traffic, and lab coats hanging off the backs of chairs, all things that can distract an AIV’s sensors,” Wilcox said. “We’re also always under a lot of construction, so when you show up one day and there’s a ladder in the hall or they are pulling cable through a wall, it makes it hard for a robot to figure out how to navigate the space.”
Another challenge: AIVs were originally designed for use in large warehouses with tasks and needs far different from those of a lab, said Jagdeep Atwal, project manager in Technical Support Services, who led the team that designed and outfitted the latest AIV.
“Adapting the technology for the laboratory space has required some creative thinking and is still a pretty new idea,” said Atwal. “And ARUP is definitely early to the game.”
Wilcox was skeptical about trying AIVs again and said that no one is more surprised by its success than he is.
“The biggest difference, I think, is that the technology is a lot better than it was. AIVs have come a long way in the past five to 10 years,” he said.
The latest AIV was purchased from Mobile Industrial Robots and then customized for laboratory operations over a period of about four months, beginning in early 2022, by an ARUP team that includes Jared Allred, Ammon Ence, Dan Jenkins, Matt Solter, and Chris Semrow.
The collection of smart and creative electrical, mechanical, and controls engineers, along with an information technology specialist, worked together to build and mount a five-layer stack of metal trays to the AIV’s wheeled battery platform. In its finished form, the AIV stands about 5-feet, 4-inches tall and weighs 365 pounds. Each metal tray is roughly 22 by 30 inches, Atwal said.
The group also wrote the software that directs what they call the AIV’s daily “mission” and tricked out the AIV with flashing lights (including turn signals), backup beeps, its signature song, and other sounds.
“Watch out! I am going to be moving,” announces the AIV just before it moves to its next location.
Each mission takes roughly 40 minutes and includes a five-minute stop at each lab to load or unload samples, Atwal said. Between rounds, the AIV hangs out “at home,” a staging area in the lab where staff members can recharge its battery.
Jenkins, a controls engineer, programmed the AIV’s directional software. He used a digital joystick to move the AIV around the lab to map the locations of walls, tight doorways, and other objects that might present barriers to movement. The AIV is affixed with a 360-degree camera that provides a peripheral-vision view of its travel, so it’s immediately aware when something, or someone, gets in the way.
“It will stop and then recalculate the route so it can go around whatever is there,” Jenkins said.
The AIV moves at a swift clip of about 4.5 miles per hour. Since its first day on the job, it has clocked an average of 5.6 miles per day, Jenkins said. If it keeps up that pace, it will have traveled close to 1,200 miles in its first six months—a distance equal to a one-way trip from Salt Lake City to Minneapolis or Fort Worth, Texas.
ARUP successfully moves thousands of specimens daily. Automated tracks and conveyor belts deliver about 85% of the test sample volume but are limited because they reach only certain central locations in two buildings, Wilcox noted. In addition, older lab buildings don’t have the space needed to add those types of features, so AIVs provide a cost-efficient solution to move what’s left and can free up lab staff for other tasks, he said.
“We have aspirations for not only more AIVs, but for more routes and expanded missions,” Wilcox said. “That would include using elevators to go between floors.”
