O’Sullivan-effekten
Mer än någonsin tjatas det om ”O’Sullivan-effekten”: alla förståsigpåares övertygelse om att mötet med den största gör var och varannan spelare vindögd och paraplegisk. Var det rentav en tourspelare som dryftade att några av O’Sullivans titlar under året kommit sig av uteblivet motstånd?
Allt detta är givetvis trams, trams, trams. Ryan Day skulle inte spela bättre mot John Higgins, och han skulle definitivt inte ”slappna av och spela sitt eget spel” mot en medelmåttig kvalspelare. Misstag är en del av spelet, men de glöms bort snabbare när de inte straffas. Kyren Wilson vinner inte sina matcher för att motståndarna skakar av skräck; han vinner med bättre spel, bättre nerver, bättre uthållighet. Och färre misstag. Samma som Ronnie.
Nåväl, alla försöker vi tyda snookergudarnas tecken. Och ingen renlärig trodde väl att Luca Brecel skulle bryta ”The Crucible Curse”, förbannelsen som säger att ingen kan försvara sin första titel, och orimligt ofta åker ut redan i första omgången. Brecel mötte den tidigare semifinalisten David Gilbert, en personlig favorit som mer än en gång har visat på storartat spel i VM. För åtta år sedan höll Gilbert en träffsäkerhet på 93 procent mot O’Sullivans 95 när han föll 7–10 i första omgången (så mycket för O’Sullivan-effekten). Han hade varit min favorit mot Brecel även utan förbannelsens assistans. En bekväm seger mot Robert Milkins följde, men kvartsfinal mot Maguire blir tuffare. Att dessa herrar är rankade 31 och 28 i världen är häpnadsväckande, men visar också på VM är ett säreget vidunder som vissa är bättre lämpade att tampas med.
Så en drömfinal för mig och kanske bara mig: Gilbert – O’Sullivan. Naturally.

Beverly Hills Cop II is a worthy sequel to the illustrious original that overcomes a familiar plot with an injection of Tony Scott's signature style. #Review

Thought I had seen this before but don't remember seeing any of the scenes in this one. To me, this BHC movie was even funnier than the first.

Paul Gilbert : The Dio Albm
Paul Gilbert is an 80s guitar vituoso survivor. He was one of THE 80s guitar shredders, coming out of the Guitar Institute of Technology in the mid-80s in Los Angeles and formed the speed metal band Racer X, recording on Mike Varney’s Shrapnel Records. But his biggest gig was the pop metal band Mr. Big, alongside bassist Billy Sheehan, where they competed with Extreme as the most technically…

Steamy Saturday
The novel that dares to tell the truth about a perverse love.
Theirs was a love no man could share!
Draga yielded her long-legged girlishness to unnatural embraces. . . . it was an ecstasy such as Draga had never known.
Her lips were tender and clinging as she pressed them to Jo's voluptuous flesh. . . .
She was on the brink of total perversion. . . . Draga's only hope now was -- a man!
Oh, the steaminess of it all!! Carol Emory's pulp novel Queer Affair was published in New York as a Beacon Book, an imprint of Universal Publishing and Distributing Corp., in 1957, and even by today's standards, the sexual frankness of the novel is pretty steamy. Unfortunately, because it's the 1950s, a fully-realized lesbian relationship will not stand. At least one of the partners has to be off her nut (in this case, Jo), while in the end male heroes come to the rescue.
The story centers around up-and-coming dancer Draga Hamilton who is introduced to celebrity sculptor Jo Stanhope by Draga's lawyer Gilbert Young who is desperately in love with Jo. Jo, however, has other ideas, as she seduces the vulnerable Draga and they begin a torrid love affair, which, as already stated, is quite frankly narrated. Draga is head-over-heels, until of course her old flame Ronnie Marsh shows up on the scene and ruins everything for Jo.
In the end, the whole sordid love quadrangle literally devolves into a barely-suppressed S&M encounter. Jo takes her revenge on Draga's infidelity by grabbing a bullwhip that is inexplicably hung on the wall and beats Draga almost senseless with it. The whipping, however, sends both into a building sexual frenzy until both Gilbert and Ronnie come bursting through the door. Ronnie whisks Draga out of harm's way (at least as he perceives it), and Gilbert gives Jo a taste of her own whipping medicine, to which both react with this memorable passage:
Jo Stanhope looked up at him with misted eyes. "Oh, Gilbert -- you've done something for me. You've rescued me. Why, it--it was --" "Never mind," Gilbert said. "And you won't find it so bad being married to me. After all, I'm sort of womanish, you know."
Meanwhile, Draga is recovering in Ronnie's soothing arms, to which she responds, "Move over a little, sweetheart . . . I want to sit in your lap." THE END. Ugh!!
Despite Queer Affair being mentioned in several texts on early lesbian pulp novels, we could find nothing on the author Carol Emory, who we suspect is possibly a man. Nevertheless, the author makes sure early on that the reader knows Emery has done their homework on lesbianism:
Gilbert had warned her that the sculptress was a lesbian, but at the time the fact had seemed to her irrelevant. Love between women was not altogether a new and startling idea to Draga. She had read many books on the subject, including those by Radclyffe Hall and Diana Fredericks.
Appropriately, Barbara Grier, in her iconic The Lesbian in Literature, gives Queer Affair a rating of A for having "a major lesbian component but not sympathetically portrayed." While we may not know who Carol Emory is, we do know that the butch/femme cover art is by Frank Uppwall and was first painted for another pulp novel, Gutter Star by Dorine B. Clark, published in 1954, and then reissued for the cover of Queer Affair three years later.
