The Singing Detective: addictive and avant garde – even 25 years on | Television & radio | theguardian.com  

I'd go toe to toe on The Singing Detective as a desert island DVD of best-ever TV.

AGREE, ESP. ON A TIME-ADJUSTED BASIS

Six to watch: British miniseries | Television & radio | theguardian.com  

Few episodics will ever be able to hit the high notes that Dennis Potter's programme laid down 25 years ago. The Singing Detective breaks every television convention in the book and yet simultaneously riffs on them evoking everything from 70s sitcoms to 40s noir over six superb hour-long episodes. Part musical, part black comedy, part detective story it's a jewel in the crown of British television.

MAYBE *THE* JEWEL

Dennis Potter & The Singing Detective  

It is a vade mecum of his themes and concerns and characters and techniques". I think it is more reasonable to regard The Singing Detective as a turning point, an accumulation of many old themes and an introduction of new ones for further exploration. Even if it doesn't cover all of Dennis Potter's themes it is the one single work in his canon that attempts to bring together the greatest number of themes in one text.

Hong Kong crisis exposes impossible contradiction of China's economic growth - Telegraph 

"Xi Jinping has a horror of what happened to the Communist Party in the Soviet Union. If things get seriously out of hand, he may mobilise 'patriotic compatriots' (Beijing-controlled agitators) on the streets. In the end he will bring out the troops, if he has to," he said. 

LET'S HOPE IT DOESN'T COME TO THAT ... WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS ELECTORAL REFORM ON THE MARGIN 

" ... he is doubling-down on a one-party, one-ideology, authoritarian state. This is untenable. Hong Kong demonstrates the iron law that demands for freedom rise with economic sophistication. Shanghai, Guangzhou, Beijing, Tianging and Chengdu are not that far behind."

Rex Reed Reviews ‘Gone Girl’ | New York Observer  

"Preposterous, illogical, senselessly over-plotted and artificial as a ceramic artichoke, David Fincher’s Gone Girl is another splatterfest disguised as a psychological thriller about the disintegration of a murderous marriage that I find one of the year’s grossest disappointments." ... THOUGHT IT WAS A TV SHOW?

How to Buy a Home in One Market While Selling in Another – Zillow Blog - Real Estate Market Stats, Celebrity Real Estate, and Zillow News  

Take your time to see as many homes as possible to get the lay of the land. Focus on the most motivated sellers, as this is where you may uncover the best values. If a handful of homes meet your needs, ask questions such as: Why is the seller selling? What is the seller’s time frame for moving? How long has the seller lived in the home? You can ask these questions through your agent or by asking the seller’s agent directly. 

The more you ask, the more you may uncover just who is the most motivated seller. Be open to taking on some renovation work, because that can add value to the property. The market will eventually turn, and there’s no better feeling than knowing that you bought low, with some bonus equity.

RT@JoshTANoble: ?? @globaltimesnews: Marriages between foreigners and Chinese can often lead to double lives bit.ly/1niHNMP  

"found out his Chinese partner had been married to another man the whole time. . "Every year, there are around 10 foreigners who contact our law firm because they find out their Chinese partner is already married," "

I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WHERE THIS IS THE CASE, NO KIDDING ... CHINESE WOMEN JUST WALK AWAY FROM EARLIER MARRIAGE, NEVER MENTION IT :-)

"little pats of butter shaped like sea shells. I was so happy." ... BEATS THE HELL OUT OF MUZZER RUSSIA

"rankings in The Erotic Review (TER), the Yelp of the commercial sex world" ... THE WHAT?

best page for escorts, Eros.com ... BIG BIZ?

"What I know now is that guys want to know the women they’re fucking." ... DEPENDS ON THE GUY

"can hire “sugar babies” for $4,000 a month. There are even “sex vacations” for $2,000 where you get food and lodging thrown in along with the sex. " ... SOUNDS CHEAP

"With an agency, they screen your clients. They set up your appointments. They take care of you. What they also take is your money. For massage parlors, it’s half. For escort agencies, it’s 30 to 40 percent." ... CUT OUT THE MIDDLEMAN IN THE DIGITAL ERA

"Ninety percent of my clients were married, and most were bankers. " .. 99% AND THE OCCASIONAL "SPECIAL ADVISER"

"About a third of the guys liked to watch me masturbate. I’d say 98 percent wanted to go down on me. Fifty percent told me what big dicks they have. The ones who bothered me were the ones who really did have giant dicks (about one fifth of the guys who thought they did). No girl wants to take one of those on. Eighty percent asked if I came."

INTERESTING SET OF STATISTICS

"I had one guy, all he had done was watch porn and jerk off until he was 25. " 

THERE MUST BE MILLIONS OF THESE GUYS NOW

"I would see girls on The Erotic Review with 600 reviews. That’s 10 years, at least. I didn’t want to be one of those girls."

OOOPH, YES, TIMING THE EXIT WOULD BE TRICKY

"If someone’s not paying you, you don’t have to do blow jobs, you don’t have to smile all the time, you can be yourself. But after a while you feel like something is missing. The something is money. "
