Albert Finney passed away from a short illness at the age of 82 according to Daily Mail.

Finney began acting in 1960 and continued doing so until a cancer diagnosis in 2011. Throughout his 50-year career, he received five Oscar nominations, but no wins. What he did win was the hearts of little girls like me as Daddy Warbucks in Annie.

That was just one of his many credits where he won over his audience. There was also Tom Jones, Scrooge, Murder on the Orient Express, Erin Brockovich, The Gathering Storm, two Bourne movies and Skyfall.

Today, remember him magnificent career by watching one of his many great works. I will do it by singing Tomorrow. He might not have one, but his legacy will.

Forming your own free horse tips
February 8th, 2019 under Uncategorized. [ Comments: none ]

It’s likely that you’ll see a lot of horse racing taking place on a regular basis and just as many punters who are able to find some value in those races. Less experienced horse racing bettors save their money for key events such as The Grand National, Cheltenham Festival, Royal Ascot or the Epsom Derby but it can be a wasted opportunity if you refuse to look at what races you can bet on throughout the week.

From bookmakers seeing it as being their duty to provide customers with as many options as possible when it comes to betting, you’re given the chance to bet on every horse race every day of the year, with Christmas Day being the only potential exception. There are some terms that make it difficult to get to grips with betting on horse racing like NAPs, Lucky 15s, Trixies and Antepost, but after you’ve worked out what they all mean, you’ll be building your own free horse tips in no time.

How to pick a winning horse bet 

Although there are a lot of weathered horse racing punters who will insist that there’s no way of guaranteeing a winner in horse racing, you’ll increase your chances of creating winning free horse tips if you know what to look for. Horse tipsters don’t simply pick and choose which horses they think will win at random – or at least the good ones don’t anyway – so you need to make sure you’re taking precautions and doing your research.

The internet holds as much information as you’ll need for betting on horse racing, with all of the form, statistics and knowledge you’ll need for identifying the best free horse tips. This might be a low-priced horse which a lot of bookmakers have already given odds for as a favourite, or a far less likely big odds outsider; as long as you’ve found some reasoning behind why you’re recommending it, you can easily justify why you’re putting your own money on it. 

It’s no surprise to see the odds playing a part in how much you rate the horse you’re backing but you need to assure that any free horse tips you provide are focused on research rather than what the bookmakers say. Despite a lot of people thinking otherwise, there have been endless occasions where they’ve got it wrong and the statistics always work as the most reliable indication behind each nag’s chances of winning or placing.

One Day at a Time’s third season is a real charm!
February 8th, 2019 under Netflix, Rita Moreno. [ Comments: none ]


One Day at a Time is back on Netflix now and the third season is full of laughter, tears and plenty of heart. Most importantly it is full of love.

ODAAT begins its third season with a funeral. Not Lydia’s (Rita Moreno) because she survived her stroke she suffered in the second season finale, and her granddaughter, Elena (Isabella Gomez), will make sure she stays that way. Which is going to prove hard to do at the funeral when Lydia sees her sister (Gloria Estefan) who she despises. The two will finally bury their differences over their dead relative. How long will that last?

As the season goes, we will meet more family members like Penelope’s (Justina Machado) long lost brother, who is her mother’s favorite, and Schneider’s (Todd Grinnell) dad (Alan Ruck). Schneider wants his dad’s love and approval so much, he will do anything to please him. This will cause him to choose between his real family and the ones that accept and love him for who he is.

Talking about love, Penelope and Schneider find love again. Not with each other, but with other people. Penelope is hesitant at first, but then she gives in. Schneider hides his true self from his girlfriend, what happens when she finds out? Then there is Elena, who is experiencing all the things you do with your first real love with her girlfriend. Something that will get in her in a lot of trouble. She is not the only one who gets in trouble, Alex (Marcel Ruiz) gets caught vaping and Penelope goes ballistic on him.

Penelope is having issues with her emotions as her depression returns. She realizes one of her children is showing the same signs of depression. The two will help each other through these tough times. Soon they will find happiness at a wedding. That’s right someone is getting married!

Meanwhile, someone’s past comes back to haunt them and they are going to need a lot of help. Will they be willing to accept it? And then there is Leslie (Stephen Tobolowsky) the gringo, who reminds everyone everything is going to be OK. That is why they keep him around.

Although that is not why Netflix keeps this heartwarming show around. One Day at a Time has a die-hard fan base who truly love this sitcom. Watch one episode and you will find out why. By the time you reach the third season finale, you will feel like you have been part of this family forever. They have real problems, problems you can relate to and they do it in a way that makes you love them with laughter. There are not that many shows that are special as this one, so spend the weekend binging the series. It is too cold to do anything else. I promise, their admiration for each other will warm even the coldest of cities and hearts.

Why are you still reading this? Go watch it now.

BTWF: Rita Moreno in So Young So Bad
February 8th, 2019 under Before They Were Famous, Rita Moreno. [ Comments: none ]


Before Rita Moreno had a family who loved her on One Day at a Time, no one loved her in the awful reform school for girls she was left at in So Young So Bad. How absolutely gorgeous was the 18-year-old in her debut role back in 1950?
