John A. Coughlin The Crimson Clown's Threat, 1931
John A. Coughlin was born in Chicago in 1885 and was educated at Notre Dame and the Art Institute of Chicago. Like many of the artists of the pulp era, he got his start in advertising. He first started painting covers in 1913 and, for the next thirty years, he was a busy illustrator. Among his credits: The Popular and Detective Story, Argosy, Complete Stories, Detective Fiction Weekly, Detective Tales, Real Western, Short Stories, Top-Notch, and Wild West Weekly. He was only 58 when he died in 1943 but he left behind a long legacy of pulp art.

Johnny Weir sitting on tv and calling Alexa Scimeca Knierim a roll model is sickening. Never forget that Alexa was more than willing to bully people in order to protect John Coughlin. One of the women who was sexually abused by Coughlin died last year, his evil extends far beyond his death. But Alexa gets lauded on tv as someone for young skaters to admire.
Remember, we will never know the extent of Coughlin’s abuse.

Happy anniversary Watermill LotR!!!!!
To celebrate the one year anniversary of this lovely production, I've chosen to draw the entire cast with a notable quote by/related to them. For people who play multiple characters I've chosen my favorite one, and I've skipped quotes for the ensemble folk because they don't have many solo lines.
Drawings under the cut because this is going to be a longgg post
Louis Maskell as Frodo Baggins
Nuwan Hugh Perera as Sam Gamgee
Amelia Gabriel as Pippin Took
Geraint Downing as Merry Brandybuck
Aaron Sidwell as Aragorn
Yazdan Qafouri as Legolas
Folarin Akinmade as Gimli
Peter Dukes as Boromir
Patrick Bridgman as Gandalf
Charlotte Grayson as Rosie Cotton
Aoife O'Dea as Arwen
Tom Giles as Elrond
Sioned Saunders as Galadriel
Matthew Bugg as Gollum
John O'Mahony as Bilbo
Bridget Lappin as Ensemble (Lobelia Sackville-Baggins)
Kelly Coughlin as Ensemble (Mrs. Bracegirdle)
Reece Causton as Ensemble (Otho Sackville-Baggins)
Zara Naeem as Ensemble
Elliot Mackenzie as Ensemble (Haldir)
Missing from this collection are Georgia Louise (Galadriel) and Peter Marinker (Gandalf) because I did not get to see them when I went to the show. I may add Georgia later because I do really want to draw her and I know I have a friend or two who would appreciate it (hi salla 😄)
Anyway, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY WATERMILL LOTR!!!!!! I MISS YOU EVERY DAYYYY <3333333

NASA telescopes work out black hole's feeding schedule
By using new data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory as well as ESA's XMM-Newton, a team of researchers has made important headway in understanding how—and when—a supermassive black hole obtains and then consumes material.
A paper describing these results appears on the arXiv preprint server, and will be published in The Astrophysical Journal. The authors are Dheeraj Passam (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Eric Coughlin (Syracuse University), Muryel Guolo (Johns Hopkins University), Thomas Wevers (Space Telescope Science Institute), Chris Nixon (University of Leeds, UK), Jason Hinkle (University of Hawaii at Manoa), and Ananaya Bandopadhyay (Syracuse).
This artist's impression above shows a star that has partially been disrupted by such a black hole in the system known as AT2018fyk. The supermassive black hole in AT2018fyk—with about 50 million times more mass than the sun—is in the center of a galaxy located about 860 million light-years from Earth.
Astronomers have determined that a star is on a highly elliptical orbit around the black hole in AT2018fyk so that its point of farthest approach from the black hole is much larger than its closest. During its closest approach, tidal forces from the black hole pull some material from the star, producing two tidal tails of "stellar debris."
The illustration shows a point in the orbit soon after the star is partially destroyed, when the tidal tails are still in close proximity to the star. Later in the star's orbit, the disrupted material returns to the black hole and loses energy, leading to a large increase in X-ray brightness occurring later in the orbit (not shown here).
This process repeats each time the star returns to its point of closest approach, which is approximately every 3.5 years. The illustration depicts the star during its second orbit, and the disk of X-ray emitting gas around the black hole that is produced as a byproduct of the first tidal encounter.
Researchers took note of AT2018fyk in 2018 when the optical ground-based survey ASAS-SN detected that the system had become much brighter. After observing it with NASA's NICER and Chandra, and XMM-Newton, researchers determined that the surge in brightness came from a "tidal disruption event," or TDE, which signals that a star was completely torn apart and partially ingested after flying too close to a black hole. Chandra data of AT2018fyk is shown in the inset of an optical image of a wider field-of-view.
When material from the destroyed star approached close to the black hole, it became hotter and produced X-ray and ultraviolet (UV) light. These signals then faded, agreeing with the idea that nothing was left of the star for the black hole to digest.
However, about two years later, the X-ray and UV light from the galaxy became much brighter again. According to astronomers, this meant that the star likely survived the initial gravitational grab by the black hole and then entered a highly elliptical orbit with the black hole. During its second close approach to the black hole, more material was pulled off and produced more X-ray and UV light.
These results were published in a 2023 paper in the Astrophysical Journal Letters led by Thomas Wevers from the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore.
"Initially we thought this was a garden-variety case of a black hole totally ripping a star apart," said Wevers. "But instead, the star appears to be living to die another day."
Based on what they had learned about the star and its orbit, Wevers and his team predicted that the black hole's second meal would end in August 2023, and applied for Chandra observing time to check.
"The telltale sign of this stellar snack ending would be a sudden drop in the X-rays and that's exactly what we see in our Chandra observations on Aug. 14, 2023," said Dheeraj Pasham of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the leader of the new paper on these results. "Our data show that in August last year, the black hole was essentially wiping its mouth and pushing back from the table."
The new data obtained by Chandra and Swift after the 2023 paper was completed gives the researchers an even better estimate of how long it takes the star to complete an orbit, and future mealtimes for the black hole. They determine that the star makes its closest approach to the black hole about once every three and a half years.
"We think that a third meal by the black hole, if anything is left of the star, will begin between May and August of 2025 and last for almost two years," said Eric Coughlin, a co-author of the new paper, from Syracuse University in New York. "This will probably be more of a snack than a full meal because the second meal was smaller than the first, and the star is being whittled away."
The authors think that the doomed star originally had another star as a companion as it approached the black hole. When the stellar pair got too close to the black hole, however, the gravity from the black hole pulled the two stars apart. One entered orbit with the black hole, and the other was tossed into space at high speed.
"The doomed star was forced to make a drastic change in companions—from another star to a giant black hole," said co-author Muryel Guolo of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. "Its stellar partner escaped, but it did not."
The team plans to keep following AT2018fyk for as long as they can to study the behavior of such an exotic system.

Gracie Gold's book "Outofshapeworthlessloser" seems to be a very insightful book into skating behind the scenes. I read a couple of snippets and she goes through topics of handling of LGTBQ+ (she identifies as bisexual), eating disorder, sexual assault (John Coughlin's case especially), NBC commentary (she picksTara Lipinski's commentary apart) competing with the Russian's and the doping allegations (as in the TSL tweet) etc.
I really think she is right about whether skaters should really aspire to be competitive with Russian skaters if we know the price to pay?
Seems like a must - read!
(btw I dislike tsl, but they shared the take from Gracie so sometimes even they share something useful)
Here is also an article by Phil Hersh about the book:
(Phil Hersh another reporter with some questionable articles in the past but still this time it sums up Gracie's book - not a fan of Phil Hersh's takes on the lack of Russians and I didn't forget the comments about Mai Mihara's condition)
Why do so many US based skating"reporters" and commentators do have such a lot awful takes but sometimes they have a bright moment ???😅
