Why the winner of the Democratic debate was Anderson Cooper.
“In the end, Cooper showed why he’s one of the top journalists in the game: He was impeccably prepared, wasn’t hesitant to ask follow-up questions when warranted and didn’t offer up one question — not one — that could be considered frivolous or fluffy."

Scientists think they may have found alien ‘megastructures’ in space. I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords
Catching up with Will on Nashville, he was only in a couple of scenes this week, but this one may be pivotal.
After last week, when a country bigwig refused to have his picture taken with him, having Rayna James warmly embrace him and his coming out hopefully will give Will the belief he needs. But I still say Rayna should sign him to her label.
And here's The Weekly ShoutOUT™. Each week we're going to focus on one out athlete/performer and feature a daily pic and career timeline. We'll be showcasing the big names, but also the lesser-known gay and bisexual celebs who deserve more recognition. This week we give a ShoutOUT™ to ... Kerwin Mathews
Kerwin followed up The 7th Voyage Of Sinbad and The Three Worlds Of Gulliver with another stop-motion classic, 1962's Jack The Giant Killer. They don't make em like this anymore.
Three years ago I presented my personal favorite Briefs list, The 100 Greatest Lost Hits of The 80's, and because if there's one thing Hollywood has taught us, it's that sequels and reboots and remakes are ALWAYS better then the original, we're going to the well again with The 100 Greatest Lost Hits of The 80's Part 2: The Even More Forgotten
We'll be spotlighting 100 more of the greatest minor hits of the decade, the songs you don’t hear on any 80’s nostalgia show. Songs that missed the top ten, or top twenty … or top forty. Hopefully these forgotten gems may ring a long dormant bell, or for younger readers, provide a pop music history lesson.
At #87 is "Holiday" by The Other Ones
Former puppeteer Alf Klimek formed The Other Ones in 1983 with fellow Australians, including vocalist Jayney Klimek, and they moved to Germany to record their debut album. The first single "We Are What We Are" peaked at No. 53 in May 1987 (and can be be found on the original Lost Hits of The 80's), and their song "Holiday" managed to hit the top 40, reaching #29 in October 1987. It would be their final chart entry.
