Erfahrungsbericht: Palliativmedizin anstatt Einschläfern Beim Hund

2024.05.15 10:22 yama_lakinya Erfahrungsbericht: Palliativmedizin anstatt Einschläfern Beim Hund

TLDR: Im Dezember 2023 wurde mir von der behandelnden Ärztin bei meinem Schäferhund mit Krebs die Wahl zwischen Einschläfern und palliativer Behandlung gegeben. Aufgrund meines Wissens über den Charakter, die Vergangenheit und den Werdegang des Hundes habe ich mich für palliative Behandlung entschieden. Seine ursprüngliche Lebenserwartung lag bei 2-4 Wochen. Sein Tod trat auf natürliche Weise, friedvoll nach 6 Monaten ein.
Diese Zeit war voller positiver und negativer Erfahrungen auf beiden Seiten, sowie immens kostspielig und seelisch vernichtend. Der Erfahrungsbericht soll anderen Haltern neue Wege aufzeigen, aber auch evtl. Schuldgefühle in Bezug auf Euthanasie und den Prozess des Einschläferns nehmen. Dieser Bericht soll schonungslos die positiven Aspekte wie auch die negativen von palliativ-medizinischer Behandlung im Gegensatz zu Euthanasie in diesem Fall darstellen.
Der Hund
Geboren c.a. 2010 in Spanien als Sohn einer Husky Dame und eines stolzen Schäferhund Vaters. Das Resultat: Ein wunderschöner großer sogenannter Gerberian Shepsky. Aus seinen jungen Jahren sind wenig Informationen bekannt, aber er wurde insgesamt in dieser Zeit nicht gut gehalten. Nach den Informationen des Tierschutzes wurde er für die ersten 7 Jahre seines Lebens in der Nähe eines Fabrikgebäudes als Wachhund angekettet. Als die Fabrik geschlossen wurde, hat man ihn dort vergessen. Halb verhungert wurden dann Anwohner auf ihn aufmerksam und verständigten das örtliche Tierheim. Dort kam er in Behandlung und wurde aufgepeppelt. Im Anschluss wurde er an eine Familie in Deutschland vermittelt. Was immer er dort in den ersten 4 Stunden machte, führte dann dazu, dass die Familie den Adoptionsvertrag sofort wiederrief und den Hund wieder abschob. Ich bekam einen Anruf einer Vermittlerin des Tierschutzes, da ich bereits in der Vergangenheit mehrmals Hunde in Notlagen akzeptierte (so auch mein Windhund aus Italien (aka "Windy") und mein rumänischer weiß-nicht-was-es-ist-aber-sieht-süß-aus (aka "Brudi"). Fortan wurde der Spanier als "The Shepsky" getauft und als stolzer 9 jähriger Rentner in 2019 von mir adoptiert.
Der Charakter
Shepsky war ein extrem liebevoller, warmer, herzlicher, hochintelligenter aber auch willensstarker, dickköpfiger und körperlich mächtiger Hund (c.a. 35 kg). Im Gegensatz zu all meinen anderen Adoptivhunden hatte er keine Beißhemmung, und das führte auch beim Spielen in der Vergangenheit zu Verletzungen, bei denen zwei davon im Krankenhaus behandelt werden mussten. Shepsky konnte sich eigenständig in der Küche bedienen, er konnte sogar Türen öffnen und er spielte manchmal seine körperliche Überlegenheit einfach aus um seinen Willen zu bekommen. Er lernte immens schnell meine Sprache und alle Kommandos, ebenso die Dynamik im Haus insgesamt. Aufgrund der fehlenden Erziehung war er ein 35kg schwerer Welpe mit einem erschreckend guten Gedächtnis und einer teuflischen Intelligenz.
"Zu Hause zu sein", Nähe, Zuneigung, Respekt und Anerkennung seines Charakters und seiner Grenzen waren ihm unheimlich wichtig. Konfrontationen waren vorprogrammiert aber ich lernte über die Zeit diese Situationen zu entschärfen und einfach durch menschliche Intelligenz einen Schritt voraus zu sein, Routine, Konditionierung, Wärme und Nähe ihn zu führen.
Er hasste Tierärzte. Bei einem Tierarztbesuch mit Verdacht auf Magendrehung brauchte es Maulkorb und 3 Leute um ihn überhaupt zu betäuben. Wenn man ihn körperlich an bestimmen Stellen angefasst hat, dann war das für ihn inakzeptabel und er schnappte. Seine körperliche Unversehrtheit und der Respekt davor, war ihm immer unglaublich wichtig.
Ich will ehrlich sein: Manchmal hab ich die Nerven verloren und auch gebrüllt und manchmal musste ich ihn auch einfach massiv mit der Leine zurückziehen wenn er kurz davor war mich bergab runterzureissen. Manchmal hab ich einfach die Tür zugemacht wenn's mir zuviel war und ihn dort allein gelassen, denn gerade am Anfang war ich maßlos überfordert. Aber ich habe nie physische Gewalt angewandt und es war mir immer wichtig seine physische Integrität und seine Grenzen zu wahren.
Die Krankheit
Der Tumor wuchs im Herbst 2023 unterhalb seines linken Auges. Am Anfang wirkte es wie ein geschwollenes Auge, oder eine Infektion, aber bei dem Termin im Dezember 2023 stellte sich dann bei einer Komplettuntersuchung unter Vollnarkose heraus, dass es ein riesiger Tumor war, der bereits durch den Kiefer in die Mundhöhle wuchs.
"Jetzt müssen sie sich entscheiden ob wir ihn wieder aufwecken". Bevor ich den Hund überhaupt zum Tierarzt und ins Auto gekriegt habe, hatte ich ihm versprochen: "Du kommst wieder nach Hause. Ich lass Dich dort nicht zurück". Ich fragte die Tierärztin wie der weitere Krankheitsverlauf sein wird und wie stark die Schmerzen sein werden bzw. wie sich diese mit Schmerzmitteln kontrollieren lassen werden.
Fazit: Lebenserwartung c.a. 2-4 Wochen, Schmerzen sind kontrollierbar mit Schmerzmitteln.
Ich sagte ihr, dass ich die stärksten Schmerzmittel will und dass ich ihn wieder nach Hause nehme. Ich wusste, dass ich selbst noch Schmerzmittel anderer Natur zu Hause hatte, mit denen ich selbst Erfahrung in der Vergangenheit hatte (Kratom) und die dazu führen würden dass er "hackebreit" wird. Einzige Gefahr die ich sah war eine mögliche Wechselwirkung zwischen den Medikamenten und Kratom. Mir war klar dass die Dosierung mit Vorsicht vorgenommen werden sollte. Die Ärztin fragte mich noch: "Wollen sie SICH das wirklich antun?" Ich sagte: "Ja".
Die Palliativ-Medizinische Behandlung
Die Behandlung bestand aus Meloxicam (Melosus) und Kratomtee + Virbac Pulmostat Akut (als Schleimlöser). Körpergewicht c.a. 30 kg (er hatte aufgrund der Erkrankung bereits massiv Gewicht verloren)
Während der GESAMTEN Behandlung kommunizierte ich gegenüber Shepsky, dass ich den Tierarzt rufen kann um es zu beenden. Ich habe in der Vergangenheit bereits Hunde einschläfern lassen und habe weder moralisch noch menschlich Vorbehalte dagegen. Aber Shepsky's Wesen und Kommunikation (angelegte Ohren, Wegdrehen des Kopfes, plötzliches Vermeiden des Blicks bei dem Wort "Beenden", "Tod", "Tierarzt" ect. obwohl der Blick vorher gehalten wurde, eingezogener Schwanz) zeigte mir dass er das nicht wollte. Und mein Instinkt als Halter und Gefährte sagte mir das Gleiche. Es war das erste Mal in meinem Leben, dass ich mich gegen das Einschläfern entschieden hatte.
Monat 1
1g -2g Kratom als Blätterpulver ins Futter / Tag aber noch kein Melosus (um Wechselwirkung zu vermeiden)
Zustand: Shepsky war breit. Und glücklich. Ich kann's nicht anders beschreiben. Er war selbst bei der geringen Menge bereits massiv gut dabei und das hat mich auch dazu veranlasst das Melosus erstmal zurückzuhalten, da ich nicht einschätzen konnte wie sich sein Zustand verändert und um Kreuzwirkung der Medikamente zu vermeiden.
Der Tumor schien inzwischen weiterzuwachsen und war nicht nur auf den Kiefer beschränkt, sondern hat wohl ebenfalls auf den Trigeminalnerv eingewirkt, was zu Sehverlust auf einem Auge und hohem Ausfluss von Nasensekret führte. Also zusammenfassend: Er war glücklich aber hat viel rumgerotzt und auch geblutet.
Monat 2
2g-4g Kratom als Tee / Tag + 2,5 - 3ml Melosus / Tag + 2,5-3ml Virbac Pulmostat / Tag
Zustand: Gegen Ende des 1. Monats verschlechterte sich sein externer physischer Zustand drastisch, aufgrund des stark wachsenden Tumors. Sein Wohlbefinden und Lebensqualität blieben aber aufgrund des "Highs" noch relativ erhalten (er aß, er wollte Snacks, er schlief seelig) Aber inzwischen war der Tumor auf die Größe eines Tischtennisballs angewachsen und die "High" Phasen verkürzten sich. Er blutete konstant aus dem Maul, da der Tumor nicht aufhörte zu wachsen. Sein Verhalten lies darauf schliessen, dass er Schmerzen hat. Dies veranlasste mich die Kratom Menge zu verdoppeln und als Tee beizumischen um dem Schmerz länger entgegenzuwirken, sowie die erste Menge Melosus mit beizumischen. Meine Erwartung war, dass es bald zu Ende geht und ich deshalb willens war das Risiko einer Wechselwirkung oder eines Leberversagens einzugehen.
WARNUNG: In den ersten Tagen der Melosus Zugabe entwickelte er ein schweres Atmen, dass sich aber nach kurzer Zeit nach der Eingabe löste. Ich gehe davon aus, dass definitiv eine Wechselwirkung zwischen Melosus und Kratom besteht, diese aber durch das langsame Einschleichen des neuen Medikaments in Grenzen gehalten werden konnte. Nachdem ich Melosus eingeschlichen hatte war er nochmal extra breit, und tatsächlich enorm entspannt und glücklich. Er wurde langsam wieder der "Alte" und nach einiger Zeit begann der Tumor sogar wieder zu schrumpfen.
Shepsky rotzte in dieser Zeit ständig. Der Tumor schien ein Nasenloch verschlossen zu haben, was dazu führte, dass überall um ihn herum Rotz und Blut war. Virbac Pulmostat hat dort tatsächlich Wunder gewirkt, aber aufgrund des hohen Preises des Medikaments konnte ich nur eine begrenzte Menge geben.
Monat 3
5g Kratom als Tee / Tag + 2,5ml - 3ml Melosus / Tag + 2,5-3ml Virbac Pulmostat (so oft wie nötig)
Zustand: Um der langsam steigenden Toleranz des Kratoms entgegenzuwirken und um seinen High Zustand zu erhalten, habe ich die Kratom Dosis leicht erhöht und die Melosus Menge beibehalten. Shepsky war breit und glücklich. Der Tumor schrumpfte weiter. Mit den Medikamenten hab ich dort irgendwie eine goldene Mitte erreicht, bei der er wach genug war um seinen Tag zu leben aber trotzdem breit genug um den Tag auch zu geniessen und zu schlafen. Er lernte das Wort "Schmerzmittel" und wenn ich ihn fragte ob er welche will, dann wedelte er mit dem Schwanz.
Allerdings sah mein Wohnbereich aus wie ein Schlachthaus. Überall Blut. Überall Rotz. Alles dreckig. Alles ekelhaft. Der Hund war glücklich, aber ich war fertig mit der Welt. Ich putzte und putzte, aber es machte keinen Unterschied.
Shepsky war über lange Phasen immernoch stubenrein, aber wenn er es mal nicht raus schaffte, dann ergoß sich alles über den Boden. Dies nutzten dann die anderen Hunde um die Tage danach, selbst über den geputzten Fleck nochmal drüber zu markieren. Das Haus roch nach Blut, Rotz und Urin und meine Nerven lagen blank.
Monat 4
10g Kratom als Tee/Tag + 2,5ml -3ml Melosus + 2,5-3ml Virbac Pulmostat (so oft wie nötig)
Zustand: Shepsky's Toleranz gegenüber dem Kratom stieg langsam an. Und die alte Menge hatte nicht mehr den langanhaltenden Effekt. Ich erhöhte schrittweise die Menge Kratom auf 10g. (Zum Vergleich: Um einen erwachsenen Menschen der keine Kratom Toleranz hat zum Einschlafen zu bringen reichen meist 5-6g)
Der Tumor im Kiefer blieb auf der Größe einer großen Murmel. Aber dennoch entwickelten sich Nebentumore: Einer an der Nickhaut, was aussah wie das bekannte "Cherry Eye" und ein zweiter an seiner linken Unterlippe. Der Tumor an der Nickhaut sorgte dafür, dass das Auge zu tränen begann. Ich begann nun so oft wie möglich sein Auge zu reinigen und zu befeuchten.
Nach der Erhöhung der Schmerzmittel war er wieder seelig. Aber der Zustand meines Hauses war katastrophal. Ich gab auf alles hinterherzuputzen, weil ich nebenher auch noch Vollzeit Home Office arbeitete. Das führte unweigerlich dazu, dass die Gerüche und der Zustand meiner Umgebung mich seelisch vernichteten. Es war wie ein Teufelskreis.
Monat 5
15-20g Kratom als Tee / Tag + 2,5ml - 3ml Melosus + 2,5-3ml Virbac Pulmostat (so oft wie nötig)
Der Tumor an der Nickhaut war inzwischen so weit angewachsen, dass er das linke Auge komplett überdeckte. Das Auge tränte ständig und ein gelber Ausfluss kam heraus. Shepsky begann wieder schlechte Tage zu haben (wie Ende Monat 1 und Anfang Monat 2). Somit erhöhte ich die Kratom Menge weiter (wohlwissend um das Risiko des Leberversagens).
Seelisch war ich fertig. Wirklich fertig. Ich hatte so oft geflennt und geweint. Ich fühlte mich verloren, unfähig, hilflos. Ich wollte dass es bald vorbei ist. Aber mir war klar, dass diese Entscheidung dann aus reinem Egoismus getroffen wird. Hat er Lebensqualität? Ja. Ist der Hund glücklich? Ja. Frisst der Hund? Ja. Ich stellte mir Fragen über meine Identität ... wer ich denn sein möchte ... wie weit das gehen soll? Wie lange noch? Wo beginnt meine Selbsterhaltung und wo endet meine Empathie und meine Verpflichtung?
Ich begann einen letzten massiven Versuch das Haus sauberzuhalten. Shepsky wurde ein Raum zugewiesen mit Ausgang in den Garten - so konnte er immer raus wenn er musste, hatte Wasser und "Brudi" war auch bei ihm und sie schliefen beieinander. So konnte ich den Rest des Hauses sauber halten und das Desaster war nur auf einen Raum begrenzt. Brudi stahl ihm zwar manchmal die Schmerzmittel, weil er auch mal "high" sein wollte, aber sonst kamen sie gut miteinander klar.
Schuldgefühle plagten mich, weil ich den Hund quasi "abschob". Es war mir zu viel und ich hatte das Gefühl, dass alle Entscheidungen falsch sind. Ich sollte doch die Zeit die ich mit ihm habe schätzen? Geniessen? Dankbar sein? Nichts davon war mehr übrig. Ich war wie eine Hülle und fühlte, dass ich mich selber betrog.
Monat 6
20-25g Kratom als Tee / Tag + 2,5ml - 3ml Melosus
Die Nebentumore entwickelten sich weiter und das Blut und der Ausfluss in Zusammenhang mit meinem Stresspegel entwickelten sich so stark, dass ich jeden Tag mit dem Hund Kontakt suchte um irgendwie sein Einverständnis fürs Einschläfern zu bekommen.
Irgendwas. Ein trauriger Blick. Ein Blinzeln. Eine Reaktion. Blickkontakt. Kommunikation.
Nein. Er wollte leben.
Er fraß, er war glücklich, er konnte schlafen. Er genoss die Zuneigung, er genoss den Garten. Ja, er hatte Momente in denen er selber angepisst war von seinem Zustand. Ja er kam immer öfter mit der Bitte um Schmerzmittel, da ich die Tür aufließ um ihm immer diese Möglichkeit zu geben. Er musste oft nießen, er musste oft Blut übergeben. Aber diese Momente waren ihm fast schon egal. Er wollte einfach nur leben und da sein. Teilhaben an unserem Alltag. Bei mir sein.
Aber er war traurig, dass ich ihn abschob. Und das brach mir das Herz.
Er erbroch immer öfter Blut und immer mehr regte ihn der Geschmack des Kratomtees auf. Mal verweigerte er das Essen wenn es mit Kratom "verseucht" war, mal akzeptierte er Spritzen in den Mund und schluckte, dann verweigerte er auch das, aber akzeptierte dann wieder das Essen. Das alles verkomplizierte die Situation noch mehr, da ich ihm ja die Schmerzen nehmen wollte aber dann auf eine unvorhersehbare Wand stieß. Zudem musste ich dann das Kratomessen vor dem drogengeilen Brudi beschützen, der jede Minute darauf wartete endlich auch wieder breit sein zu dürfen.
Am 13. Mai fraß er dann sein Frühstück und danach nochmal eine Suppe mit Schmerzmitteln. Als ich danach runterkam, lag er auf der Terasse und blickte friedvoll in den Wald. Es war eine seltsame Szene. Ich hatte ihn noch nie an dieser Stelle sitzen gesehen.
Ich ging mit allen drei Hunden in den Garten zum Spielen. Shepsky versuchte sich zu übergeben, aber er konnte nicht. Ich wusste nicht wirklich was ich machen sollte. Ich kraulte ihn und fragte nochmal "Tierarzt?": Er schaute mir tief in die Augen. Er wusste es. Ich wusste es. Ich fragte: "Was kann ich tun?". Er humpelte zur Treppe. Ich trug ihn nach oben ins Schlafzimmer und legte ihn auf den Sessel. Er schaute mich an. Das wollte er nicht. Er wollte was anderes. Ich hob ihn auf den Boden und fragte: "Was möchtest Du?" Er ging zu meinem Bett. Auf dem wir fast jede Nacht Kopf and Kopf geschlafen haben.
Ich legte ihn zu mir aufs Bett. Wir schauten uns in die Augen, verabschiedeten uns und er schlief ein.
______________________________________________________________
Dieser Erfahrungsbericht soll keine Weisung geben oder in irgendeiner Art und Weise belehrend sein. Er dient in erster Linie mir selbst das Geschehene zu verarbeiten und kann hoffentlich anderen als Anhaltspunkt dienen eine Entscheidung zu treffen, wenn der Tag kommt.
Ich habe in dieser Zeit unglaublichen Respekt vor Hospizkräften und Pflegepersonal gelernt. Ich dachte mir so oft: "Mein Gott, wie muss das erst mit einem Menschen sein". Die Belastung die auf pflegenden Menschen lastet ist nicht in Worte zu fassen. Und diese Belastung tritt auch dann auf wenn es sich "nur" um einen Hund handelt.
Ich habe für mich selber noch keine Bewertung der letzten 6 Monate erreicht. Das einzige was ich mit Sicherheit sagen kann ist, dass ich die Wünsche meines Gefährten nach bestem Wissen und Gewissen versucht habe umzusetzen um seine Würde, Identität, seinen Willen und seinen Stolz zu wahren.

2024.05.14 21:05 EJC28 Bills 2024 Draft Analysis Compilation

Round 2, Pick 33 - Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State:
NFL: After trading back twice on Thursday, the Bills stick at 33 and take a big, physical and athletically gifted target. Coleman isn't fast and isn't a deep threat, but he can win in a variety of ways. But who will Josh Allen's deep threat be? Stay tuned.
CBS Sports: C-. “X” receiver for a WR-needy team. Plays faster than his combine speed but doesn’t separate consistently and isn’t as good of a contested-catch wideout as his size and highlight-reel would indicate. Young though.
ESPN: After trading back twice, the Bills addressed the team's most significant position of need with Coleman, a big outside receiver with the ability to make splash plays -- 12 receiving touchdowns on contested catches since the start of 2022, second-most in the FBS, however, only a 31.7% contested catch percentage in 2023 -- to create separation and a release that general manager Brandon Beane described as "about as good as any." Beane acknowledged that while he's "probably not" going to run away from defenders, Buffalo feels his play speed is faster than the speed he showed at the combine -- 4.61 40-yard dash -- also noting that they liked his athletic ability that came from playing basketball. The Bills needed starting-level talent at outside receiver and Coleman, who turns 21 in May, fits into what Buffalo was looking for, while the team was still able to move back and add picks.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Believes that knitting is the original “Netflix and chill”.
Round 2, Pick 60 - Cole Bishop, S, Utah:
NFL: Safety was a big need for the Bills, and they go back to the Utes for help after taking Dalton Kincaid in Round 1 a year ago. Bishop is a very good athlete and field general who can play the post safety spot and cover a lot of ground. He played like the QB of the Utes' defense the past two years and could be a rookie starter for Buffalo.
CBS Sports: A-. Large, intimidating safety with magnificent movement skill. The QB of the defense. Aligns everywhere. Can wear many hats. Excelled as slot defender and vs. TEs in coverage and runs the alley on outside runs as well as any safety in the class. Ball skills and tackling must improve. Short arms. Need filled.
ESPN: Another pick for the Bills in the second round, another big need addressed. Drafting Bishop adds someone who can compete for a starting role this season, in addition to being a potential answer in the secondary after moving on from Jordan Poyer this offseason while Micah Hyde continues to contemplate retirement. Bishop has the ability to move all over the field, along with speed -- 4.45 40-yard dash -- and many of the qualities and instincts the Bills look for at the position.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: He always weebles and wobbles, but he won’t ever fall down.
Round 3, Pick 95 - DeWayne Carter, DT, Duke:
NFL: When I first watched Carter at the Senior Bowl, I wrote in my notes: "rolling ball of knives." Carter's game doesn't have a lot of pretty to it, but he's a scheme disruptor with his low center of gravity, ferocious style and nasty demeanor.
CBS Sports: B+. Active, high-energy interior rusher who’s on the ground a bit more than what’s desired because of his frenetic style. But it also gets him to the football more often than most DTs. Flashes of swim move and spin just needs to utilize them more. Length is a plus and he works hard vs. run. Some power too. Fills niche need on Buffalo’s defensive front. Needs to use his length better on passing downs.
ESPN: Using the pick acquired via the trade with the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday, the Bills addressed another hole with Carter bringing depth at defensive tackle. The three-technique tackle will have the opportunity to continue to develop -- potentially as Ed Oliver's backup -- adding to a defensive tackle room that has limited young talent. The Bills didn't draft a defensive tackle last year due to the way the board fell, but the team was able to add to the rotation early this year.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Still says ‘weeeeeeeeeee’ when on a playground swing.
Round 4, Pick 128 - Ray Davis, RB, Kentucky:
NFL: Davis has overcome a lot to reach this level, and though he lacks long speed, he can be a Zack Moss-like player for the Bills. Davis' vision and wicked spin move have left a few defenders in a blender.
CBS Sports: C. Compact, older RB with plus stop-start ability, married to his feet well. Can deploy multiple cuts in a run to make defenders miss. Good, not amazing overall elusiveness though. Quicker than fast too. Will work hard to fight through contact. Has the skills to be fine complementary RB in NFL.
ESPN: With Davis, the Bills add a needed bigger back -- 5-foot-8, 211-pounds -- to pair with James Cook, but also someone who has the ability to catch the football (seven touchdown catches in 2023, tied with Najee Harris for the most by any SEC running back in a season in the last 25 years). Buffalo had a variety of veterans complimenting Cook last season, but Davis, 24, will give Buffalo a power runner and another younger presence in the room, albeit with plenty of collegiate experience from two seasons at Temple, two at Vanderbilt and one at Kentucky.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: This divorce is taking forever Erica why are you doing this?
Round 5, Pick 141 - Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia:
NFL: He's a tough, durable competitor with good anchor strength and three years starting experience for an SEC power, although SVP's lack of athleticism and smaller frame might make him a center-only projection.
CBS Sports: A-. Multi-year starter in the SEC with wrestler’s mentality. Battles through the whistle every snap. Mobility stands out. Explosive short-area quicks. Doesn’t have supreme length and clearly has to add weight/strength to his game. Methodically carries out run-game duties with ease. Second-level climbs etc. Older prospect but comes with high floor.
ESPN: This offseason, the Bills moved on from the team's starting center, Mitch Morse, and backup Ryan Bates. Last year's left guard Connor McGovern is set to slide over to the starting role. Adding Van Pran-Granger brings depth at center -- he allowed one sack his entire career in 1,337 pass-blocking plays, according to Sports Info Solutions -- and a strong candidate for the future at the position with significant starting experience (he started the last three seasons at center for Georgia).
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Is constantly telling people how different things are on Linux.
Round 5, Pick 160 - Edefuan Ulofoshio, LB, Washington:
NFL: In recent years, Buffalo has taken some interesting shots on linebackers in Rounds 3-7, and Ulofoshio continues that trend. He was one of the final players in my top 100 prospect list with his excellent speed, intense style and special teams experience, even if injuries have clouded his projection.
CBS Sports: A-. Six-year LB who starred for a long time as a full-time player in Washington’s program. Big-time tester and it shows on the field. Just takes a second to diagnose. Keen block-avoider as he’s sifting through traffic. Smooth athlete all around but doesn’t quite play to his workout. Reliable tackler who also flashed coverage skill down the seam. High-floor pick here. Crowded LB room.
ESPN: The Bills lost major special teams contributors this offseason, including linebacker Tyrel Dodson and defensive back Siran Neal, while captain linebacker Tyler Matakevich remains a free agent. Ulofoshio adds depth to the linebacker room, but perhaps more importantly, he can find a role on this roster as someone who can make an impact on special teams, an area of priority for the Bills. He has experience from playing six years at Washington, and while he dealt with multiple significant injuries in 2021 and 2022, he played every game in 2023 and earned Washington's Guy Flaherty Most Inspirational Award, the program's oldest and most prestigious honor.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: DROP TABLE card_facts; [please crash your pc, reader].
Round 5, Pick 168 - Javon Solomon, DE, Troy:
NFL: Solomon was a highly productive rusher the past few years in an unusual frame. He's short and undersized at 6-foot-1 and 247 pounds but with nearly 34-inch arms and huge hands. That extra length helps Solomon get to the quarterback, along with his quick burst and non-stop motor. An interesting study for sure.
CBS Sports: A. Burst, bend, speed predicated outside EDGE. Small frame but serious length. Unique build. Doesn’t get engulfed by bigger blockers as much as expected because of his speed-to-power conversion. Hand work is good, not amazing and can flatten to the QB. Motor hums on every play. Bills needed this type of quick winner on the outside.
ESPN: Solomon provides depth at edge rusher, another position of need for Buffalo. He led the FBS with 16 sacks last season and totaled 31.5 sacks since the start of 2021 (also most in the FBS), in addition to 49 career tackles for loss (third in Sun Belt history). Being a Day 3 selection, finding a special teams role will be important for Solomon. He'll also have the opportunity to develop behind the likes of Greg Rousseau, Von Miller -- someone that Solomon has modeled his game after -- and AJ Epenesa.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: He once painted the walls of a Buccees stall, hasn’t been back since.
Round 6, Pick 204 - Tylan Grable, OT, UCF:
NFL: He's a converted Jacksonville State tight end who became a solid left tackle the past two years at UCF. Grable is a quality athlete with great length and potential to be groomed at center, even if he's still learning how to play O-line.
CBS Sports: B. Height and length type at OT who probably plays guard at the next level. Smooth athleticism and can sustain speed throughout the play. Not just quick. Hands are more active and heavy than they are accurate. Good depth add here with positional versatility. Can grow into his frame.
ESPN: Grable started his collegiate career as a walk-on tight end at Jacksonville State, but transitioned to offensive line starting in 2019 and then started 27 games at left tackle while at UCF. He will compete for a roster spot in an offensive line room with veteran players, and said he's prepared to make a switch to a different position if needed. General manager Brandon Beane said that Grable is "gonna have to continue to work on his lower body strength, his power to move guys in the run game, but has great feet you know for pass pro."
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Still refers to Google DUO as Google MEET.
Round 6, Pick 219 - Daequan Hardy, CB, Penn State:
NFL: His return skills might be what keeps him in the league, as Hardy lacks the mass and strength to hold up full time on defense, but sub-4.4 speed is always appealing in a DB.
CBS Sports: A-. Case for most sudden, twitch-up athlete at CB in the class. Super speedy too. Plus recovery talent. Explosiveness in every movement. Not always sticky in coverage but does have high-caliber reps. Check Ohio State game. Erratic tackling and hard to get off blockers because of his size. Chippy in trying to make plays on screens.
ESPN: Hardy brings depth at the cornerback position and skills as a returner. In 2023, he tied the Penn State record for most punt return touchdowns in a season (two) and finished seventh in punt return average (14.6) in school history. Beane noted that if not for the new return rules, he's not sure if they would have picked Hardy, but "this guy can play one of the backup corner spots, but also he's a really nice returner." Buffalo lost multiple players at the returner spot in free agency, and with more focus on it going into this season, Hardy will have the opportunity to compete for the role.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Owns the complete N64 collection including a CIB Conkers.
Round 7, Pick 221 - Travis Clayton, OT, England:
NFL: The Brit, who is 6-foot-7 and 301 pounds with 35-inch arms, ran a 4.81-second 40-yard dash at South Florida's pro day and immediately put himself on scouts' radars late in the process. He's a total project but might be a terrific find with some seasoning, thanks to those unusual athletic traits.
CBS Sports: C+. At 6-foot-7 and 300 pounds with 35-inch arms and a sub 5.00 40-yard dash, this is a ridiculous athlete who is new to football from London.
ESPN: Despite the Bills never seeing Clayton play football, he's an intriguing addition to develop. The initial projection is as an offensive tackle for the 6-foot-7, 303-pound boxer and former rugby player from England after offensive line coach Aaron Kromer came away from watching tape of his workouts. Notably, he ran a 4.79 40-yard dash, faster than all offensive linemen who competed at the combine in the last 10 years. He'll have an opportunity to show the Bills exactly how his skills will translate and what he may be capable of in the NFL, especially as he does not count for a roster spot as part of the International Player Pathway program.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Just like a fantasy draft, the true sleepers can be found in round seven.

2024.05.14 20:40 RavensDoe Posting (again) the Stugotz Personal Record Book I've been keeping for years. He's had a few recent entries so I wanted to post an updated version.

I may have missed some more recent (late 2023-24) declarations, so let me know if I should add anything I've missed.
Stugotz personal record book. Sorry if the links are expired on some things. They're old.
[Time Stamps] Started to use them in late 2019. They may not be exact based on what podcast app or service you use. But they'll be close.
I DIDN'T ASK FOR ANY OF THIS:

FOOTBALL

(1) UCF is the 2017-2018 national champion.
(2) If Kirk Cousins goes to the Jaguars and not the Jets, no championship he wins will count in the personal record book.
Note (2)(a): Still pending sort of since Kirk is with the Vikings now – possible in future he could go to Jags.
(3) Eli manning has 1 ring. He doesnt get one for throwing a ball into David Tyree's face / Tyree getting a football stuck in his helmet.
(4) Carson Wentz has a Super Bowl 52 ring.
Note (4)(a): Foles does not have a Super Bowl 52 ring.
(5) The Raiders defeated the Patriots in their divisional playoff matchup in 2002 (Tuck Rule game), and then would defeat the Rams in Super Bowl 36.
Note (5)(a): In this scenario also, Bill Belichick was also "fired and looking for a job" after the Tuck Rule game and has 0 rings.
(6) If the 2017 Patriots won Super Bowl 52, James Harrison would not have a ring (Patriots lost to Eagles).
(7) Peyton Manning has one ring (Broncos ring does not count).
(8) Peyton Manning must give such ring he lost (above) to Von Miller, who thus has 2 rings.
(9) Aaron Rodgers can have all the rings he wants for keeping all of central Wisconsin employed.
(10) Brian Billick has 0 rings (2000 Ravens Super Bowl) because that defense carried him.
(11) Tony Boselli is a Hall of Famer.
(12) Tarik Cohen is an honorary Jew.
(13) JuJu Smith-Schuster is also an honorary Jew. L'Chaim.
(14) Drew brees has three rings for winning the super bowl for the city of New Orleans.
Note (14)(a): There was discussion on this where the number started at three, went up to five, came down to two, but it ended up at three.
(15) Mike McCarthy has no Super Bowl rings.
Note(15)(a): Dan also has this in his record book, and it is the first entry into the Le Batard Personal Record Book.
Note 15(b): In fact, McCarthy has -3 (Negative three) rings.
(16) Any Super Bowl rings Antonio Brown gets with the Patriots will not count in the Stugotz personal record book (9/9 Weekend Observations National Hour 2).
(17) Ohio State's 76 to 5 victory over Miami (Ohio) on 9/21/19 does not count.
(18) Due to Bill Belichick's 219 wins with Tom Brady, Bill's week 7 2023 victory over the Bills was actually his 81st victory and not his 300th victory.
(19) The 2002-03 Miami Hurricanes actually won the Fiesta Bowl/BCS National Championship game against Ohio State.
(20) If JJ Watt joins the Texans for the 2024 season or later on, none of the Super Bowl rings will count in Stugotz's personal record book

BASKETBALL

Kevin Durant
(1) If Westbrook wins a championship and beats Kevin Durant along the way in the playoffs, Westbrook will have won 2 championship rings.
(2) "STRAP IT ON BOYS, GONNA TAKE YA FOR A RIDE:"
Kevin Durant has 0 rings (Zero rings)
Kevin Durant has -1 rings (Negative 1 rings).
Kevin Durant has -4 rings (Negative 4) (As of 4/11/18)
Note (2)(a): This number is subject to change based on Stugotz altering rings to the "-4" current total. Specifically as seen recently when Stugotz adjusted the number from (i) 0 rings to (ii) -1 rings to (iii) -4 rings.
Note (2)(b): Here is a tweet transcript of the conversation where this was discovered.
Archive link
(3) If Kevin Durant wins an NBA title for the NY Knicks, he will gain 11 rings.
Note (3)(a): As seen above in "(2)," Kevin Durant has -4 rings.
Note (3)(b): [Math] If Durant were to remain at -4 rings, and subsequently win an NBA title for the Knicks, he will have 7 rings total. This was specifically stated (-4 + 11 = 7), and a question about a non-specifically stated Personal Record Book entry is posed below in "Note (3)(c)(i)."
Note (3)(c): If the Golden State Warriors had won a championship playing 3 on 5 with Kevin Durant, Kevin Durant would have 1 ring.
Note (3)(c)(i): [Confusion] I am unsure if "Note(3)(c)" means he would gain +1 ring, and therefore be "up" to -3 rings total. Possibly, Stugotz means if the Golden State Warriors had won a championship 3 on 5 with Durant, Kevin Durant would be at +1 rings total (Positive 1 rings).
(4) Kevin Durant's dagger in Game 3 did not count, because according to Stugotz, none of Durant's stats count. KD's official statline last night was 0/0/0 and the Cavs blew the Warriors out by 40.
(5) Anything Kevin Durant has done with the Warriors so far is not in Stugotz' personal record scroll.
Note (5)(a): Stugotz did not take his feathered pen and write anything in his scroll (King Roy approves).
(6) Westbrook has ALL of KD's rings.
(7) For every time KD says he doesn't give a BLEEP, Stugotz adds 2 "I do give a BLEEPS" in the personal record book.
(8) Per Dan, speaking on Stugotz' behalf, Kevin Durant has no Olympic Gold Medals (9/18/19 National Hour 1 @ 00:07:50).
Michael Jordan
(1) Jordan has 9 rings because:
(a) The Rockets have to give their 2 rings from 1994 and 1995 to Jordan (+2); and
(b) The Bulls would have won the 1999 Finals over the Spurs if Jordan didn't retire (+1; 9 total).
Note (1)(a-b)(i): Put LeBron's rings in a box and put Jordan's rings in a box. Jordan is +6 by the way over LeBron box-minus, despite box-minus sounding like a dumb stat.
(2) Michael Jordan was suspended for 2 years for gambling (Said 4/25/18 Hour 2, 14:30 in podcast).
Note 2(a): HOWEVER, MJ still has 9 rings as see above in (1)(a) and (1)(b).
(3) Any game Michael Jordan played wearing the uniform #45 does not count.
LeBron James
(1) If LeBron James goes to the Golden State Warriors, every Championship he wins will result in a deduction of 2 previously won championships.
(2) The Miami Heat LeBron teams were the GREATEST teams in the history of sports (5/7/18 Local Hour).
(3) The Miami Heat LeBron teams were also the MOST INTERESTING teams in the history of sports.
(4) If, after the 2018 NBA Playoffs:
(a) LeBron does not make it to the finals and the Celtics do; and
(b) The Houston Rockets do not make it to the finals and the Warriors do; and
(c) LeBron goes to the Houston Rockets for the next season, THEN
LeBron is allowed to win rings that count in Stu's personal record book.
Note (4)(a-c)(i): HOWEVER, Harden & Chris Paul - if they remain on the Rockets with LeBron on the team - are not allowed to have any of the rings won with LeBron count in Stu's personal record book.
Note 4(a-c)(ii): To quote the big man Stu (with Dan agreeing of course), "Do it on your own” (Dan agrees here).
(5) If LeBron wins an NBA Championship with the 2018 Lakers roster (as of 7/23/18), then that wins counts for 6 rings.
Note (5)(a): Thus LeBron would have 9 rings.
Kyrie Irving
(1) Kyrie Irving hit one of the biggest shots in NBA Finals History, but was only in that position because of LeBron James. Kyrie Irving, did hit one of the biggest shots in NBA Finals history that won everyone on that team a Ring, except for you (Kyrie). (3/9/20 Hour #3; Google Podcast @ 07:00).
Note (1)(a): Stugotz: "A little revision to the uhhh Stugotz Personal Record Book that I'll come around to writing...or Mike will." I'M WRITING IT YOU IDIOT MORON JACKAL
Misc. Basketball
(1) The Houston Rockets have 0 (Zero) NBA Championship victories.
Note (1)(a): See "Michael Jordan (1)(a)" for reasoning.
Note (1)(a)(i): [Restated Reasoning] Michael Jordan is actually in possession of those 1994 and 1995 Rockets rings because Michael Jordan would have won those championships if he stayed in Chicago.
Note(1)(b): [CONFLICTING HOT TAKE] Stugotz has also said Jordan didn't get the Rockets' rings because he was actually suspended for gambling.
Note (1)(b)(i) NEEDS CLARIFICATION PLEASE. Stugotz keeps going back and forth. In "Michael Jordan Note 1(a)," the opposite of "Miscellaneous Basketball Note (1)(b) is stated because he has gone back and forth on this issue.
(2) Steve Kerr has no rings as a coach. In fact, he has never even coached a game.
(3) Mychal Thompson (Klay's dad) has no rings. (Said on Zach Harper podcast).
(4) Clyde Drexler no rings (Said on Zach Harper podcast).
(5) Giannis Antetekoumpo is pronounced Yani Adababoombo.
(6) As long as James Harden has his beard, he cannot win any championships.
Note (6)(a): If the Rockets win a ring, then the ring goes to the beard.
(7) Lamarcus Aldridge cost the Spurs game 2 of the 2017 Western Conference Semifinals, even though they won.
(8) If the Sixers happen to win a championship, Sam Hinkie gets a ring.
(9) Chris Paul has NOT made a Western Conference Final since he had to join the Rockets to do so.
(10) Michael Jordan winning the NBA Finals in 1999 also means that Tim Duncan only has 4 rings instead of 5 rings.
(11) The Warriors only have 1 ring
Note (11)(a): Durant still has -4.
(12) Boogie Cousins cannot win a NBA Championship and have it count if he does so with the Warriors.
(13) Billy Donovan was the NBA Coach of the Year in 2017 (12/13/17 @ 28:10 Hour 1).
Note (13)(a): The Thunder blowing the 3-1 lead to the Warriors that year had nothing to do with Donovan. It was Durant's fault.
(14) The OKC Thunder actually did win the WCF against the Warriors in 2017 when up 3-1.
Note (14)(a): This does not apply to Durant though.
Note (14)(b): The Thunder also beat whoever they would have played in the Finals. Durant still no ring.
(15) Embiid has his 2023 MVP taken away and given to Jimmy Butler.
(16) Caitlin Clark's NCAA all-time scoring record still belongs to Pistol Pete because unlike Pistol Pete, Caitlin didn't do it in 3 years and she did it with a 3 point line.

BASEBALL

Babe Ruth
(1) Babe Ruth is black.
(2) Babe Ruth never hit a baseball. Not once.
(3) Babe Ruth is the number two black baseball player of all time behind Barry Larkin.
(4) Babe Ruth is NOT a top 20 Baseball player of all time. He's a pitcher.
Note (4)(a): However This is somewhat confusing/interesting because:
(i) Stugotz has said "Babe Ruth is the number two black baseball player of all time behind Barry Larkin; and"
(ii) This MUST mean Stugotz can only have 1 black player in his top 20 Baseball players of all time Barry Larkin; because
(iii) The only way this can work logically is if in the list of greatest players #1 through #20, only Barry Larkin is on the latter top #1 through #20 list. I would like some clarification on if he wishes to change this take/record.
(5) Babe Ruth is also not a top 20 pitcher of all time.
Misc. Baseball
(1) Stugotz has declared that in his personal record book, Baseball no longer allows pitchers to hit (Stated on 05/03/2018 @ 12:38:52 P.M).
Note (1)(a): Excludes Bartolo Colon, and Shohei Ohtani.
Note (1)(b): You are either a pitcher or a hitter. Not both.
(2) If the Dodgers won the 2017 World Series Clayton Kershaw would not have had a ring.
(3) Wade Boggs DOES have a ring because he rode around on a horse with a beer afterward.
(4) Clayton Kershaw did not win an MVP award because the award for pitchers was already given, the CY Young award.
(5) Miami beat LSU in the 1996 College Baseball World Series.
(6) The 1986 NY Mets did not win the World Series against the Boston Red Sox.
Note (6)(a): This "pains" Stugotz.
(7) The Red Sox retroactively winning the 1986 World Series may result in taking a ring away from the Mets.
Note (7)(a): Stugotz has to think about it though, he's not sure yet.
(8) Bryce Harper did not win the 2018 home run derby because he cheated.
(9) Kershaw's Earned Ring Average (ERA) is 0.00.
(10) Mike Minor (Rangers Pitcher) does not have 200 strikeouts in 2019. He's at 199 (National Hour 2, 10 mins 40 seconds in).
Note (10)(a): Chris agrees too. And who really cares (15% on poll do care).
(11) The 2020-2021 Mets, during the Coronavirus outbreak, are 0-3 and Jacob deGrom is somehow 0-1 with a 0.00 ERA and 1 complete game. The deGrominator. (Google Podcast 3/30 Hour #3 @ 19:20)

HOCKEY

(1) Ray Bourque doesn't have a ring.
(2) Alex Ovechkin may or may not have won the Stanley Cup against the Vegas Golden Knights.

TENNIS

(1) If anyone wins a major in Female Tennis without Serena Williams playing, it does not count and they have 0 rings.
(2) If Maria Sharapova wins a grand slam in which Serena isnt competing it doesnt count.

GOLF

(1) If Jason Day wins the 2018 Masters, it counts as an American winning (as far as bets are concerned).
(2) Vijay Singh did not play in the 2018 Masters.
(3) Steph Curry did not win the 2023 American Century Celebrity Golf Championship Tournament . Mardy Fish was the real winner.

SOCCER

(1) Lionel Messi is stripped of all his achievements for using HGH. He never played soccer. He is still 5'1". "Fraud."
(2) Soccer is dead.

NCAA DIVISION 1 WOMEN'S LACROSSE

(1) Rachel has more rings than Kevin Durant

MISCELLANEOUS

(1) Aqua?
(2) Rings plus-minus is the only way to measure greatness.
(3) The HBO Andre the Giant film was good, not great, and Stugotz didn’t learn anything.
(4) Benoit Lecomte (guy they interviewed) can not and will not swim from San Francisco to Tokyo in the personal record book because he is most likely taking a dip for a few minutes then coming back on the boat and enjoying some filet mignon by the pool.
Note (4)(a): "Do it without a yacht. And how about ya do it without the little magnetic field around you that keeps sharks away. How bout that. Allows dolphins through though? Anyway.."

Presidential Term of Adna Chaffee (1901-1905) American Interflow Timeline
(Writer's Note: Understanding this summary will require previous knowledge of the posts about Chaffee's foreign and domestic policies. Any reference that needs past context will be linked to their respective posts)

Vice President - George B. McClellan Jr.

Postmaster General - Robert Borden
Secretary of the Navy - George E. Chamberlain (resigned March 1903) Frederick Eaton

Fearing The Chaffean Cabal
Hancock D.C., United States of America, February 4, 1901
Mr. Moody, the gravity of this situation is straining to members of the opposition.
I agree to your sentiment, but forming an administration such as this is in total legal power of the president. We may oppose these appointments in Congress, but as long the Patriots have the majority of confidence in the chambers, our voices are irrelevant. All we can hope is for moderacy to prevail.
The Speaker of the House and Senator Wanamaker has already voiced the totality of his support for the president’s selection. Mr. Hanly, we cannot expect us to be victorious in blocking this new cabinet, especially as public pressure demands of us approval for a functioning government. May you read the list aloud again?
For State, James Beauchamp Clark of Missouri. Treasury, Elihu Root of New York. War, Robert Broussard of Louisiana. Postmaster General, Robert Borden of Nova Scotia. Navy, George Chamberlain of Mississippi. Attorney General, Philander Knox of Pennsylvania. Interior, Jim Hogg of Texas. Sustenance, Moses Kinkaid of Dakota. Public Safety, Edward Carmack of Tennessee. Labor and Employment, George Westinghouse of Pennsylvania.
Never since the Barnum administration has a presidential administration been so clearly partisan. These men hold very extreme, reformist, and hawkish views, the country will veer very far off from what President Custer created.
chuckles, Alas, we can do nothing but do our work here in the House of Representatives. Perhaps, we should not fear this for now.
sighs, If that that is what your mind is speaking to you, then I cannot oppose it. After all, we are now partners in opposition.
The previous Custer administration had been marred by the Bryan-Russell rivalry which split the old presidential cabinet in pieces. It was custom that presidential cabinets be diverse in order to please either side of a political debate. As the old administration left, it was expected that a similar status-quo structure would be put in place to appease both hawkish hardliners and isolationist reformists, however the end result was far from that thought. The Chaffee administration was packed solely with so-called “ruffian” individuals, those who held interventionist, nationalist, social reformist, and near imperialistic philosophies. Cabinet members such as Champ Clark, Robert F. Broussard, Moses Kinkaid, and George Westinghouse were chosen due to their alignment with a ‘Chaffean’ belief. The more ‘reactionary’ members such as Vice President McClellan, Jim Hogg, George E. Chamberlain, and Edward Carmack still mostly held firm in their loyalty to the administration. The more ‘reformist’ column which included Elihu Root, Robert Borden, and Philander Knox, though more likely to be uncomfortable with the actions of the other cliques, still abided by the circle as a whole. Though terrifying for his political opponents, this powerful administration would be a blessing to the president himself, smoothing the path to get actions done.
President Chaffee during a visit to the Philippine Islands after the German negotiations
The Great Axe
Upon the axing of the ‘bloated’ bureaucratic Custerite system, the government experienced the first surplus in budget in decades. These policies were mainly devised by the machinations of Secretary Elihu Root and Attorney General Philander Knox. Many of the departments and sub departments created by the old administration were either merged, reassigned, or eliminated entirely. Funds for government-instituted programs were reallocated into the economic restructuring and control funds, killing off many public programs.
Attorney General Knox took a much harder stance on monopolies and repealed many of the protections handed to them by the Custer administration. Working with Secretary Carmack, the monetary ventures of these companies were now monitored by Bureau of Public Safety, and often threatened government intervention if practices were not up to standard. To the dismay of many radical anti-monopolists, the administration refrained from breaking up these monopolies and they continued to grow their empires that spanned the entire country, only now with increased government surveillance. On the other hand, new policies empowered small business and funds were reallocated to support non-monopoly affiliated business. Though these small business finally did detach themselves from the shadow of monopolies, in many areas competition remained harsh of them as the larger and more wealthy corporations dominated consumers.
Secretary Knox at work
In an attempted to stir back competition, Congress passed the Roosevelt-Garfield Bill in May 1902, penned by Representative Theodore Roosevelt of New York and Senator James R. Garfield of Ohio. The bill capped the wealth and support received by regional wings of corporations in “designated developing areas”. Harsh fines and possible shutdowns were imposed to any that tried disobey or cheat the law. Domestic American business saw a more competitive landscape throughout the coming years, though the wealth gap between big and small business still widened.
The Prince of the World
In a recent news report posted in the Hartford Courant, an interview with esteemed writer and author Mark Twain in February of 1903 caught the attention of many. The interviewer asked Twain a question regarding his past comments about President Chaffee, “In less than 10 words, how would you describe the foreign policy of the president.”. Twain paused for a moment and responded, “Ambition to a near toxic degree.”. Twain coined the term “Chaffean Policy”, and his sentiments were shared by most of the President Chaffee’s critics in foreign policy.
Chaffee famously declared in his tantalizing second round campaign speech that he would find America’s place under the sun. To most, Chaffee would deliver on that promise in a mere few years. America would achieve these feats quick and ambitiously. The American military occupation of Fujian Province and its establishment as part of the American sphere of influence was a victory to those who sought to expand American prowess in the Fat East. The American intervention to support the Filipino republics against the Germans who acquired the Spanish Philippines empowered the anti-German nationalists. The incidents at Manchuria and the souring of Russo-American relations bowed in favor of those who saw the Russians as autocratic tyrants. The establishment of American representation and interests in the Congo General Administration pleased the African opportunists. The quashing of the protests in Bahia Blanca strengthened those who wished to expand influence in South America. The US even demanded that the Argentine protestors be harshly punished by the Argentine government, which stirred the country's public even more. All in all, one group was certainly ecstatic of foreign policy the new administration was veering towards, the nationalist-imperialists.
American-administered railway construction in the Congo General Administration
These policy gave Chaffee’s administration immense bi-partisan support from the imperialists of the political spectrum. After the US was able to negotiate with the Germans not to continue their conquest of the Philippine Islands, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge would praise the president’s policies in a speech. “Never before has America shined so brightly to all societies of the world. Each step we take, we walk closer to the golden throne of a perfect civilization. There we shall take our rightful place as Prince of the World, under the service of the Lord, our God and Christ the Savior.”. The President himself was consistent in his constant declares of “American Sovereignty” against the grand foes that seek to dismantle it. Though notoriously less rambunctious and outgoing than his predecessor, Chaffee’s rare appearances gained much fanfare to his supporters, especially if he spoke out directly to them. The opposition continued to oppose these policies, the radicals and anti-imperialists joining forces to counteract the nationalist machine. Representative Hiram Johnson would try to push for an impeachment for Secretary Carmack, due to his actions in Bahia Blanca that led thousands deported, though his efforts fell flat. To the wider public, imperialism was either a non-concern or a broad support. A majority of American would not oppose these policies, most of them saying it was for the betterment of American prestige and international power.
Mass deportation of Argentine war immigrants back to Argentina
With fears that a possible conflict may stir up between the US and any other nation, Chaffee ordered Secretary of War Broussard and the War Department to hastily prepare a last resort war plans in case of war with every single major power in the world stage. Acknowledge the gargantuan task of defeating any major powers, the war plans describes very desperate and depraved tactics, such as using chemical warfare and bombarding international shipping. The plans would also describe the spoils of war that the US would seize if they were the win against their foes. Broussard's plans were kept top secret and never showed publicly, though many rumors got out and spread throughout the rooms of lawmakers, however those rumors was mostly either dismissed or sidelined by the general public and basically unknown to the rest of the world.
The Disobedient Son
While feelings of American expansionism were warm at home, abroad it utterly enraged many. In a golden room in a place in Berlin, Philipp, Prince of Eulenberg, after his meeting with George von Lengerke Meyer regarding the Philippines, told Vice Chancellor Arthur von Posadowsky-Wehner, “Americans are a brash and egomaniacal people. Always seeking glory, but never willing to sacrifice. Their great leaders of old, Hancock, Clay, Hale, would weep at the sight of this nation that stands before us.”.
The Kaiserreich was increasingly growing ambitious and hostile policy in the world stage. Along with her ally, the British Empire, they counterbalanced the Franco-Russian Entente for supremacy on the world stage. Woes for a conflict were already brewing in Europe. In the German-aligned Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia (informally the Kingdom of Illryia), tension was growing with the Russophile Balkan-Slavic intelligentsia and the German ruling class, reigned by Bernhard von Saxe-Meiningen, or by his regal name King Konstantin I. A military arms race between the French and the Germans continues to flare up as both vie to be the premier continental power. The Germans would still hold claim the mostly ethnically and linguistically German Rhineland, which had been handed to the French after the Napoleonic Wars. The British and the French would compete for their massive colonial empires, seeking to establish dominance as the greatest empire in history. It didn’t help that Secretary of State Clark openly denounced the “colonial competition” of the French and the British, saying it put global peace in jeopardy. Clark sent multiple letters to UK Prime Ministers Robert Gascoyne-Cecil and Charles Spencer denouncing the UK’s policy of “encroachment”, stating that wherever the French sought to spread influence, the British would follow.
The Franco-British \"Great Game\" would distract both governments from fully decrying the US
The United States would be viewed as a bumbling yet dangerously ambitious nation, one that the Germans sought to keep passive and behaved. The US had aligned neither with the Franco-Russian nor the Anglo-German alliance, historically holding a famed neutral stance in global squabbles. However as President Chaffee’s more hawkish foreign policy began to soar the US above what the foreign empires expected, those nations began to antagonize the Americans. Even the French, who have a merely professionally lukewarm relationship with the US, began to get anxious. French Prime Minister Georges Picquart would describe the American foreign policy as “…inherently hostile to all non-Americans.”. Though no foreign nation would threaten military action against the US, the sentiments established would lead to many nations seeking American to stay put during foreign affairs. The Argentine public particularly had a rabid distain for the US. After their loss in the war, Argentina would suffer crippling economic conditions, further exacerbated by their political divisions and lack of national confidence. The new Argentine president sought to rebound relations with the US, which angered many of the populace who demanded to cut off relations from their former foe. The growing hostility of these nations was apparent to many in the government, though their reactions were muted and unenthusiastic. Most simply shrugged this concern off as unimportant. Senator Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., recently appointed to the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, would state “The hostility and discrediting from foreign governments against the United States is matters that that foreign government solely has dictation over. Our government has no command over that they may say or do.” Holmes' address was met with cheers from the chambers.
The things he allows...
The first Chaffee cabinet would be one of the most politically powerful and influential administrations in American history. Coordinating excessive actions such as the expulsion of all Argentine immigrants, the grand “War on Crime”, the exaltation of the Hancockian Corps, and the detachment from the gold standard to fiat currency. Secretary of Labor and Employment Westinghouse moved ambitious yet business-friendly employment policies. Westinghouse imposed many policies that benefited the technological sector of the market, and many technological feats were aided by and complete by Westinghouse’s investments. Westinghouse’s company went beyond electricity and aided in the creation of groundbreaking inventions. Such as the “Whirl-craft”, the first American flying helicopter in 1903. Westinghouse would be a common figure of criticism by opponents. As the Housing Crisis continued and the costs of housing continued to be high, Westinghouse’s department was criticized in their inaction. Many saw that it was Westinghouse’s job to combat the issue, yet he did little to address the problem.
Secretary Westinghouse was a patron of rapid technological advancement
Secretary of Sustenance Kinkaid helped to imposed the “Market-by-Market” system. The government would classify a business based on their productivity, general environment, and profits. With the data collected, they get classified as either THRIVING, COMFORTABLE, or IN JEOPARDY. Based on their classification, it would determine the amount of aid and support they would receive from their local governments. While this system did revive thousands of small businesses that were on the brink of collapse, certain opportunistic administrators would forcibly close down IN JEOPARDY business that cut costs that would go in supporting them. States like Illinois and California would be the most notorious for their business shutdowns, as dictated by their local governments. Many local officials would get canned by their involving in this practice, such as Milwaukee Mayor David Rose, who shutdown many business in the city. Local legislators across the country would always try to push or support the practice of the man on top. Elsewhere however, such as in Texas and Virginia, local business thrived under the system. Someone who didn't thrive was a particular John D. Rockefeller, who was enraged that the government seemed to discriminate against his businesses. Rockefeller wrote in an open letter that "...no fair ground and no consistent market means no capital and no benefits for all.".
Most notorious out of all Chaffee’s cabinet was Public Safety Secretary Edward Carmack. Feared by both politician and civilian alike. The Bureau of Public Safety, called by John D. Rockefeller as the “Carmack Machine”, struck hard on the criminal civilian population. Carmack’s 6-year “War on Crime” envisioned a United States free of the crime and instability ridden tenures of the past, going as strict as possible on any wrongdoers. With the Hancockian Corps in his pocket, it was common sight for BPS agents or the local Hancockian chapter to chase down people on the streets accused with simple crimes. One heavily publicized case involved a 27-year old man, who was brutally beaten after being apprehended for a property damage charge. Carmack’s “masterplan” faced its major opponents and supporters nationwide. Nativist figures that supported his expulsion of the Argentine immigrants such as Representatives James K. Vardaman and John Temple Graves supported Carmack. Those who sought to combat monopoly and corruption power, which Carmack worked heavily to oppose, supported him, such as Representatives Oscar Underwood and William Sulzer and Senators Henry Cabot Lodge and Joseph W. Bailey. Opposing the BPS were the likes of Senators Eugene Debs, Anselm McLaurin, Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., Marion Butler Representatives Theodore Roosevelt and Francis Bellamy, and Governor Henry George Jr.. All would oppose Carmack for their own person reasons but united in their opposition. On October 1903, all mentioned would sign the “Declaration of National Renouncement”, documents declaration their oppose to the BPS’ handling of national crime, and demanded the resignation of Secretary Carmack and multiple others in the bureau. The declaration would fail in removing Carmack, though it succeeding in bringing the issue to the public spotlight.
Secretary Carmack was one of the polarizing people in the Chaffee government
The public became polarized in their opinions of the War on Crime. The Boston Custer Society, one of the largest public players of President Custer’s tenure, opposed the BPS and their operations. The BSC had already been frustrated at President Chaffee’s attempts at dismantling the Custerite Society and sought to keep the structure created by their patron. The Association for Social Co-operation also opposed the BPS, and especially the Hancockian Corps. Jacob Coxey and his followers would raise $12,000 to victims of “BPS brutality”, as well as holding their common rallies against government policies. Many also supported the BPS’ efforts, particularly war veterans who were granted added benefits directly by Carmack’s department, as well finding employment through the Hanockians. Carmack starkly told reporters outside the Capitol that "...all may curse me as they wish, but all men bow before the same divine judgement."
The Hero and the Villain
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
"PRESIDENT CHAFFEE CELEBRATES THIRD YEAR OF PRESIDENCY IN LOS ANGELES" by Vincent Uba, March 4, 1904.
"Almost 100,000 cheering supporters watched on today as the President rode around San Francisco celebrating his third year in office... Accompanied by Vice President George McClellan, Secretary of State Champ Clark, and Secretary to the President and his son Adna Chaffee Jr., signs were raised bearing the names of the members of his administration... Behind all the cheers and excitement, many in the city— and the wider country, wonder if the President would dare to march on into a second term as his enemies begin scheme their next political action."

President Adna Chaffee was dubbed the “Hero of the Rio de la Plata” during the War of Continental Alliance. Some continue to call him that. Though his enemies call him something very different. Coined by Representative Edward M. House, he dubbed Chaffee the “Ferro-Fiend”, saying he was an iron tyrant. Chaffee’s military background made him unfamiliar with many of the duties of the presidency. This would be used both for and against him. Supporters argued his handling of the country proved he went beyond his lack of knowledge of administration and that he thrived even though he knew little. Critics would claim that Chaffee’s ignorance of the web of governance led him to be weak and surrendered his duties to opportunistic individuals. From an interview, House Speaker John Nance Garner would say “I show my full confidence and supply for the competency of the President and his administration. Based on my own eyes, his capacity to work his duties has been more fruitful than any past administration in my lifetime.
Chaffee remained mainly quiet from the public scene during his tenure, a stark difference from his rambunctious predecessor. His image in the public eye remained as an either benevolent or malicious head honcho, one who’s quiet but one who everyone knows has power. The society that grew during his tenure would be both similar and different from the Custerite Society he promised to reimagine. On one hand, casual public life would remain the same, the economic and social stability and patriotism and understanding between normal civilians would continue and flourish during his tenure. On the other hand, policies such as the axing of institutions, the open shift towards nationalism, and fear used by the likes of the BPS shows very obvious change in society. The cult of personality adhered by fanatics of the old president would not go away, neither didn’t the radicals who called for drastic change. As the issues of the past faded away, new and prevalent issues would rise to take their place. America enters the 20th century its own friend and enemy.
23rd President of the United States of America, Adna Chaffee

2024.05.13 16:14 Leather_Focus_6535 The currently 124 offenders executed by the state of Oklahoma since the 1970s (warning, graphic content, please read at your own risk) [part 1, cases 1-62]

This is the list that I wrote for Oklahoma's execution roster since the nationwide reinstatement of capital punishment in the late 1970s. Something that should be mentioned is that given the nature of many death penalty related crimes, many of the descriptions contain very disturbing details. Please read at your own risk.
Florida's list is next, and I'll post my list for Texas once I've completed it. With Texas, I've currently finished 464 entries out of the 587 cases to date. That will probably take 7 or 8 posts for it all to be released, so I'll probably do two posts a day with Texas to avoid spamming the sub. At the end of this year, I'll repost the states that have conducted further executions with the updated information.
As with Missouri and Virginia, Reddit's maximum character count limitations forced me to divide Oklahoma's list into two separate parts. Here is the link to part 2.
The currently 124 executed offenders, cases 1 to 62:
1. Charles Coleman (~1950s-1990, lethal injection): A month after he was released on parole in 1979, Coleman broke into a house. While sacking it for any valuables, the homeowner’s brother and sister in law, 68 year old John and 62 year old Roxie Seward, walked in on him and were both shot dead. Coleman stole Roxie’s purse, several packets of frozen meat, and the homeowner’s watch during the burglary, and was arrested shortly afterwards. However, Coleman managed to escape custody, and went on a rampage that involved several burglaries, auto thefts, slitting the throat of a policeman in a failed murder attempt, the shooting death of 49 year old Russell Lewis Jr. in a carjacking, and the abduction of a deputy. The kidnapped deputy was rescued following an armed standoff with other police officers. Coleman had an extensive history of animal cruelty, armed robberies, assaults, and carrying concealed weapons convictions dating back to when he was 11 years old. He was also heavily suspected in the murder of his teenage girlfriend’s father, but was acquitted by the courts despite the prosecution’s strong belief in his guilt.
2. Robyn Parks (1977-1992, lethal injection): During a gas station robbery, Parks shot and killed Abdullah Ibrahim, a 24 year old Bangladeshi immigrant that worked as the attendant. According to Parks, he murdered Ibrahim for catching him using a stolen credit card.
3. Olan Randle (1980-1992, lethal injection): Randle invaded a home and shot the occupants, 41 year old Robert Swinford, Sinford's fiance 42 year old Averil Bourque, and Bourque's friend 38 year old Julia Lovejoy, dead. He took a pocket knife and several watches from the victims.
4. Thomas Grasso (~1970s(?)-1995, lethal injection): While living in Oklahoma, Grasso strangled 87 year old Hilda Johnson, the best friend of his girlfriend's grandmother, to death with her Christmas lights. He took $8 from her purse, several coins that added up to $4, and a television set that he sold for $125. Grasso then moved to New York, and strangled 81 year old Leslie Holtz for his social security check. The trialing arrangements caused some controversy, as the New York governors at the time were anti death penalty, and tried to prevent Grasso's extradition in favor of giving him a life sentence in their jurisdiction. Grasso had several previous convictions for theft and was fired multiple times for stealing from his jobs.
5. Roger Stafford (~1974(?)-1995, lethal injection): Stafford was condemned for killing at least 9 people in two separate robbery incidents with his brother and ex wife, though his ex wife claimed that he was involved with as many as 34 murders nationwide. The first convicted incident was when he and the ex wife carjacked and fatally shot a couple, 38 year old Melvin and 31 year old Linda Lorenz, and their son, 12 year old Richard. A few weeks after the Lorenz murders, Stafford stormed a restaurant and gunned down 6 employees, 56 year old Isaac Freeman, 43 year old Louis Zacarias, 17 year old Anthony Tew, 17 year old David Lindsey, 16 year old David Salsman, and 15 year old Terri Horst. One of Stafford's additional attributed victims was 20 year old Jimmy Berry, who was killed in the hold up of an Alabaman McDonalds, but he wasn't charged by the state due to his death sentences in Oklahoma.
6. Robert Brecheen (1983-1995, lethal injection): Breechen was involved in a feud over money with 59 year old Mary Stubbs and her husband. In an attempt to take what he perceived was owed to him, Breechen carried out a night time burglary of their home. While rummaging through the house, Breechen stumbled upon old Marie in her living room and shot her to death. The gunshots and screams awoke her husband, and he chased him away with his own gun.
7. Benjamin Brewer (1978-1996, lethal injection): Brewer raped his neighbor, 20 year old Karen Stapleton, in her home and stabbed her to death
8. Steven Hatch (1979-1996, lethal injection): Hatch and another assailant, Glen Ake, forced themselves inside the home that Richard Dougass, a 43 year old reverend, shared with his wife, 36 year old Marilyn, and their two children, 16 year old Brooks and 12 year old Lesile. The pair tied up the family and raped Lesile in front of her parents and brother. All four family members were shot, and Hatch and Ake ran off with $43 and the parents’ wedding rings. Richard and Marilyn were both killed in the shootings, while their children survived the attack. Ake was also initially condemned for the attack, but his sentence was overturned and resentenced to life following mental health concerns, and passed away from undisclosed natural causes in 2011.
9. Scott Carpenter (1994-1997, lethal injection): In a convenience store robbery, Carpenter stabbed the owner, 56 year old A. J. Kelley, in the neck, and hid the body in the minnow room. He filled his truck with $37 worth of gas from the pumps and drove away from the scene. His execution caused some controversy, as it was reported that Carpenter gasped and spasmed for 11 minutes after being injected.
10. Michael Long (1997-1998, lethal injection): Enraged that his coworker, 24 year old Sheryl Graber, refused him sex and started screaming for help, he stabbed her over 31 times. Long also shot and killed her son, 5 year old Andrew, for being a witness.
11. Stephen Wood (1992-1998, lethal injection): While heavily intoxicated, Wood stabbed two other homeless men, 46 year old Charles Stephen and 34 year old Charles Von Johnson, dozens of times each. He was given a life sentence for both of their murders. During his incarceration, Robert Brigden, a 59 year old former minister that was serving a 40 year sentence for molesting several girls between the ages of 4-14 in his congregation, moved into his unit after refusing to go into protective custody. Woods killed Brigden in a stabbing attack, and his sentence was escalated to death by the courts for it.
12. Tuan Anh Nguyen (~1982-1998, lethal injection): By all accounts, Nguyen was jealously possessive over his wife, 21 year old Donna. During one of their arguments over his behavior, he stabbed Donna, her 6 year old nephew Joseph White, and her 3 year old niece Amanda White, in their home and left the bodies to be found by the children’s parents. He fled to Arizona, groomed a 14 year old girl into an illicit “relationship”, and impregnated her. After he convinced her to move in with him, Nguyen physically and sexually abused the girl until she fled and went to the local police for help. Nguyen was then deported back to Oklahoma to face trial for Donna and the White children’s slayings, and was sentenced to death for them.
13. John Duvall (1986-1998, lethal injection): During a fight with his wife, 30 year old Donna, Duvall stabbed and suffocated her to death with a pillow.
14. John Castro Sr. (1983-1999, lethal injection): Castro carjacked Beulah Cox, a 31 year old Oklahoma State University student, after she picked him up hitchhiking and shot her to death. A few months later, Castro held up a restaurant with an empty pistol, and attacked the manger, 29 year old Rhonda Pappan, after forcing her to open the register. During their struggle, Pappan was fatally stabbed, and he took off with her purse. During his mid teens, Castro was allegedly molested by his mother. Castro's attorneys made the argument that his glimpses of Cox's buttocks reminded him of his mother's reported abuse, and he was triggered into attacking her for it.
15. Sean Sellers (1985-1999, lethal injection): In 1985, a then 15 year old Sellers tried to buy beer from a convenience store, but the clerk, 32 year old Robert Bower, denied him due to being underaged at the time. Sellers gunned him down in a fit of rage. A year later, Sellers shot and killed his mother, 32 year old Vonda Bellofatto, and stepfather, 43 year old Paul, in their sleep. Due to being 16 at the time of his conviction, Sellers remains the youngest condemned offender to have his sentence carried out in the post Furman era. He also attracted national media attention for claiming that his crimes were the result of demonic possession.
16. Scotty Moore (1983-1999, lethal injection): Moore was fired from a motel for undisclosed reasons. In retaliation, Moore and a cousin (whom he was dating at the time), assaulted the motel, and gunned down the desk clerk, 42 year old Alex Fernandez. According to court documents, the pair took a total of $97 in the robbery.
17. Norman Newsted (1984-1999, lethal injection): Newsted tricked Lawrence Buckley, a 26 year old cab driver, into picking him up. He shot Buckley dead and took his wallet. In an attempt to cover his tracks, Newsted placed the body inside the cab, and drove it into a creek near a local church.

19. Bobby Ross (1983-1999, lethal injection): While robbing an inn, Ross fatally shot a police officer, 30 year old Steve Mahan, that tried to intervene.
20. Malcolm Johnson (~1970s(?)-2000, lethal injection): Johnson invaded the apartment of 76 year old Ura Thompson and sexually assaulted her. Thompson either died from having her chest compounded during the abuse or was suffocated by Johnson’s hands covering her nose. He seized several possessions such as furs, typewriters, purse, watch, rings, and a hand mirror, which were discovered by police in his residence during an unrelated investigation of a firearms possession charge. Johnson had an extensive criminal history, which included several convictions of rape, armed robberies, and burglaries. The case attracted controversy when it was discovered that the lead chemist in the investigation misconducted several of her other cases, and forged some of the evidence used in the trial. Despite the other overwhelming evidence to the contrary, Johnson’s supporters took the opportunity to push a narrative of his innocence.
21. Gary Walker (~1960s-2000, lethal injection): Walker abducted, raped, and murdered at least 5 women, 36 year old Margaret Lydick, 35 year old Jane Hilburn, 32 year old Janet Jewell, 25 year old Valerie Shaw-Hartzell, and 24 year old DeRonda Roy, and non fatally assaulted several other women and teenage girls. The victims were mostly strangled to death with their bras and panties. Some of them were forced to withdraw hundreds of dollars from ATMs before they were killed.

Roberts' death sentence and execution has been contested, as he was convicted on his later recounted testimony alone. He claimed that the investigators tricked him into confessing with the promise of a plea deal that was allegedly withheld from him.
23. Kelly Rogers (1990-2000, lethal injection): Rogers’ girlfriend lured 21 year old Karen Lauffenburger into her apartment with a fake pizza order. They accosted her when she arrived with the delivery.

He was released after serving 6 out of a 25 year sentence despite an escape attempt. In the following year, he began a relationship with 37 year old Nancy McKinney while he married a different woman. During an argument, Robedeaux beat McKinney to death, dismembered her body with a saw and machete, and scattered the remains across the state.

He also admitted to the beating death of a roommate, 40 year old James Meadows, on the behalf of the man's wife. As a trivial side note, Berget's brother Rodney was executed in 2018 by the state of South Dakota for killing a prison guard [for more information, please see Rodney Berget's entry under the South Dakota section of my states with less then 10 executions post].
28. William Bryson (1988-2000, lethal injection): To collect a $300,000 life insurance policy, Marilyn Plantz recruited her boyfriend Byrson and his friend to kill her husband, 33 year old James.

His crimes were exposed when an 18 year old man he abducted escaped from him despite being shot and stabbed numerous times. By his own admission, Wallace murdered 18 year old Thomas Reed, 15 year old William Domer, 14 year old Mark McLaughlin, 14 year old Jeffrey Foster, and 12 year old Alonzo Cade.

32. Wanda Allen (~1981-2001, lethal injection): In 1981, Allen got into a fight with her live in girlfriend, 21 year old Dedra Pettus, and shot her dead.

While incarcerated, she started dating a fellow inmate, 29 year old Gloria Leathers, and continued their relationship outside of prison. The couple’s relationship was marred with extreme domestic violence on Allen’s end. In one incident, Allen struck Leathers with a rake. In 1989, while they were arguing in front of a shopping center, Allen shot and killed Leathers. Leathers herself also had history of violence, and had a conviction for stabbing a woman to death.

33. Floyd Medlock (1990-2001, lethal injection): 7 year old Katherine Busch went to visit her family's old apartment, which Medlock was residing in, by herself.

He ransacked the house and dumped Beck's body in a field. A second murder, the robbery and shooting death of a Texan man, 77 year old Shirley Fox, was also tied to him. However, authorities in Texas withheld from prosecuting Fredrick due to his death penalty trial and conviction in Oklahoma. Both Fox and Beck had physical disabilities, which led prosecutors to the conclusion that Frederick intentionally selected and depredated on disabled men.
53. Jerry McCracken (~1980s(?)-2002, lethal injection): McCracken and his accomplice shot up a bar, killed 3 patrons and the bartender, and made off with $350.

Neill's boyfriend was given a life sentence for the robbery and murders, despite not being directly involved.
55. Ernest Carter Jr. (~1989-2002, lethal injection): After being fired from an autoshop, Carter robbed it with an accomplice, and fatally shot a security guard, 35 year old Eugene Manowski. The pair stole the shop's tow truck, and later tried to burn it with Carter's girlfriend to destroy any traces of the crime. Carter was also previously accused of burning a friend to death in the previous year, but the charges were dismissed.
56. Daniel Revilla (1987-2003, lethal injection): While babysitting his girlfriend's son, 13 month old Mark Gomez, in their home, Revilla broke the boy’s ribs in a beating and scalded him with boiling water. When he brought the boy to a hospital, Revilla gave a story that he accidentally hit Gomez’s head with a door handle, which was quickly seen through by the staff. According to the accounts of his girlfriend and her family, Revilla was violently abusive to Gomez, and they recounted incidents of him trapping the boy in a kitchen drawer, dunking him in cold water, folding him into a pull up bed, and hanging him by his ankles with duct tape.
57. Bobby Fields (~1990s-2003, lethal injection): Fields shot and killed 77 year old Louise Schem while burglarizing her home. She had tried to shot him with her .25 calibre pistol, but he wrestled the gun away from her, and gunned her down with it. His intentions was to steal Schem's television set to sell for cocaine, but left empty handed after losing his nerves with the struggle and murder. According to court documents, Fields had a previous robbery and assault conviction, and several arrests for drug possession.
58. Walanzo Robinson (1989-2003, lethal injection): A member of the Gangster Bloods street gang, Robinson shot and killed 26 year old Dennis Hill, an affiliate of a rival gang, in a turf war over drug sales.
59. John Hooker (~1971-2003, lethal injection): As a teenager in 1971, Hooker attended a party at a friend's house, and got into an argument. In a fit of anger, he fatally shot 18 year old Alta Lang, and wounded two other partygoers. Due to the witnesses refusing to cooperate with the investigation and being unable to prove any calculated intentions, Hooker was given a manslaughter conviction, and released a few years later. After he was paroled, Hooker started dating Sylvia Stokes, and fathered several children with her. Their troubled relationship lasted for 8 years, and ended when Stokes filed a protection order against him. In retaliation, Hooker lured Stokes and her mother, 53 year old Durcilla Morgan, into his apartment and stabbed them both to death.
60. Scot Hain (~1980s-2003, lethal injection): Hain carjacked and abducted a couple, 27 year old Michael Houghton and 22 year old Laura Sanders. After taking $565 and some bags of clothing, he forced them into the trunk of their car at gunpoint, and burned them alive in it. He had several previous arrests for robbery, and was involved with a number of rapes and attempted kidnappings months before the Houghton and Sanders' murders.
61. Don Hawkins Jr. (1985-2003, lethal injection): Hawkins kidnapped 29 year old Linda Ann Thompson and her two daughters, aged 4 years old and 18 months old, from a mall. Although his original intentions were to ransom off Thompson and her children, Hawkins gang raped the captive woman with his cousin and his girlfriend's teenage nephew, and drowned her in a lake. Thompson's children were spared and simply left with a babysitter. Hawkins and his accomplice then went on a nation wide rampage with his accomplice that involved the abductions and rapes of several grown women and teenage girls, hanging 31 year old David Coupez of Colorado in his home while robbing him, and countless other robberies.
62. Larry Jackson (~1984-2003, lethal injection): In 1984, Jackson shot and killed his girlfriend, 19 year old Freda Washington. He accepted a plea deal that dumbed down the charges to second degree murder, and was given a 30 year sentence for it. During his incarceration, Jackson started a relationship with 29 year old Wendy Cade. Despite her promises of marriage after his release, Cade left him for another man, and they got engaged. When Jackson was assigned to a prison work crew, he snuck out and went to confront Cade. Reportedly, the two had bought alchool, cocaine, and cigerates together and had sex in Cade's apartment. However, they got into an argument, and he slashed Cade's throat and stabbed her 31 times with box cutters. Jackson then left with her jewelry, watch, and the keys to her jeep.

2024.05.13 06:55 Silikonpinsel Besuch des chin. Präsidenten in Europa

Letzte Woche hat der chinesische Präsident Xi Europa besucht. Öffentlich ist es dabei verhältnismäßig unspektakulär zugegangen, aber das russische Fernsehen hat auf wichtige Details hingewiesen, über die deutsche Medien nicht berichtet haben.
Der Europabesuch des chinesischen Präsidenten Xi war hinter den Kulissen sicher wesentlich interessanter als für die Presse. Die chinesische Kultur verbietet deutliche Aussagen in der Öffentlichkeit regelrecht, weshalb die öffentlichen Auftritte sogar mit Präsident Macron betont harmonisch waren, wäre da nicht Ursula von der Leyen gewesen, die gegen China ausgeteilt hat.
Generell dürfte die Öffentlichkeit erst sehr viel später erfahren, was wirklich besprochen wurde, denn worüber deutsche Medien kaum berichtet haben, ist die Tatsache, dass schon sehr bald ein offizieller Besuch von Präsident Putin in China ansteht. Hinter den Kulissen dürfte es also sehr interessante Gespräche gegeben haben und Xi und Putin dürften in China einiges zu besprechen haben.
Aber es gab noch mehr Details, die den deutschen Medien entgangen sind, die im russischen Fernsehen aber erwähnt wurden. Der Besuch von Xi Jingping in Europa war nicht das einzige Thema des Berichtes des Deutschland-Korrespondenten des russischen Fernsehens, der am Sonntag ausgestrahlt wurde. Aber am interessantesten war dieses Mal wohl der Kommentar des Moderators im Studio, der auf den Bericht folgte. Zum Verständnis muss man sich den Korrespondentenbericht und den Kommentar ansehen, weshalb ich beide hier übersetzt habe.
Beginn der Übersetzung: Cognac, Armagnac und von der Leyen konnten Macron nicht helfen
„Während unseres Treffens haben Sie definitiv Ihre Bereitschaft gezeigt, in die gleiche Richtung zu handeln, nämlich alle betroffenen Parteien um einen olympischen Waffenstillstand während der kommenden Spiele zu bitten“, sagte der französische Präsident an die Adresse des chinesischen Staatschefs.
Macron war bemüht, seinem chinesischen Gast zu gefallen. Er nahm ihn mit in die Pyrenäen, an die Orte seiner Kindheit, verwöhnte ihn mit Lammfleisch und Blaubeerkuchen – kurzum, er war die Gastfreundschaft in Person. Daher gibt es zwei Versionen über das Erscheinen der Chefin der EU-Kommission auf dem Gipfel: Entweder hat sie sich selbst aufgedrängt, um die Freundlichkeit Macrons zu korrigieren und ihn unter Kontrolle zu halten, oder der französische Präsident hat auf ihre Anreise bestanden – es heißt, dass er auch Scholz dazu holen wollte -, um sich nicht selbst bei den Chinesen zu beschweren, sondern von der Leyen das machen zu lassen.
„Chinesische Produkte haben den europäischen Markt überschwemmt“, sagte sie. „Peking unterstützt seine Industrie weiterhin aktiv. Aber die Welt kann die überschüssigen chinesischen Produkte nicht aufnehmen. Deshalb habe ich die chinesische Regierung aufgefordert, auf diese strukturelle Überproduktion zu reagieren.“
Das heißt, die EU möchte, dass China seine Produktionskapazitäten freiwillig reduziert und seine Handelsüberschüsse mit der EU abbaut. Das wäre ein dauerhafter Waffenstillstand im Handel, denn die Europäer können kaum konkurrieren, weil sie zu viele Sanktionen verhängt haben. Brüssel, Paris und Berlin entwickeln seit langem Programme, um die wirtschaftliche Abhängigkeit von China zu verringern, aber den Maßnahmen fehlt es noch immer an der amerikanischen Entschlossenheit: Das Wall Street Journal schreibt, dass die USA ab dem 14. Mai 100 Prozent Zoll auf chinesische Elektroautos erheben sowie die Zölle auf die Einfuhr von kritischen Mineralien und Solarpanelen aus China erhöhen werden. Von der Leyens Pariser Ultimatum zu den überschüssigen chinesischen Produkten spiegelt die Absicht Washingtons wider, Europa zum Nachziehen zu zwingen, worauf der chinesische Staatschef mit Zurückhaltung in Worten und viel mehr Eloquenz in Taten reagiert hat.
Am Mittwoch wurde er in Serbien empfangen. Es war der Jahrestag der NATO-Bombardierung Belgrads. An diesem Tag vor 25 Jahren schlug eine amerikanische Tomahawk-Rakete in die chinesische Botschaft ein, wobei drei Journalisten getötet und zwei Dutzend weitere verletzt wurden. Das Pentagon versichert, dass es sich um einen Unfall gehandelt hat. Aber die Chinesen haben trotzdem nichts vergessen.
„Die Serben sind zuverlässige Freunde“, betonte Xi. „Ich habe Ihre Aufrichtigkeit und Ihre tiefe Verbundenheit mit China gespürt.“
Das sind nur wenige Worte, aber sie sind sehr wichtig. Serbien ist für den Westen wie ein Klotz am Bein, der ihn daran hindert, den Balkan endgültig zu schlucken. Das Auftauchen einer weiteren ernstzunehmenden Kraft hinter ihm kann Belgrad genügend Widerstand gegen eine Übernahme durch die anderen zu inakzeptablen Bedingungen bieten.
Das Gleiche gilt für Ungarn. Budapest ist der letzte Punkt der Europareise von Xi Jinping und er erklärte: „China unterstützt Ungarn in seinem Bestreben, eine wichtigere Rolle in der EU zu spielen und die Beziehungen zwischen China und der EU zu fördern, um eine neue und größere Entwicklung zu erreichen.“
Wenn wir uns an Viktor Orbans jüngste Äußerungen über die Notwendigkeit eines vollständigen Wechsels der Brüsseler Eliten erinnern, ist klar, dass auch Peking, um es gelinde auszudrücken, mit denen nicht glücklich ist. China stellt sich offen auf die Seite der Kräfte in Europa, die bereit sind, sich gegen die gegenwärtige Ordnung der Dinge zu wehren, bei der Brüssel alle wichtigen Entscheidungen aus Washington diktiert werden, während die EU selbst in Fragen von Krieg und Frieden an ihren eigenen Grenzen völlig unselbständig ist.
Viktor Orban erklärte bei dem Besuch von Xi: „Europa ist heute auf der Seite des Krieges. Die einzige Ausnahme ist Ungarn, das einen sofortigen Waffenstillstand und Friedensgespräche fordert und alle internationalen Bemühungen um Frieden unterstützt, einschließlich der von Präsident Xi Jinping vorgestellten chinesischen Friedensinitiative.“
Der Kern der chinesischen Initiative ist, dass jegliche Verhandlungen über die Ukraine nicht ohne Russland und ohne Berücksichtigung seiner Sicherheitsinteressen geführt werden können. Die Vertreter des Westens, die seinen Kurs nach außen tragen, haben sich dem noch nicht mal angenähert. Sie sind die ganze Zeit ist damit beschäftigt, nicht umsetzbare Aufgaben zu formulieren. Wie Josep Borrell, wenn er sagt: „Die Aufgabe ist, die ukrainische Industrie in das Verteidigungsökosystem der EU zu integrieren. Die Aufgabe ist, die Fähigkeiten der ukrainischen Verteidigungsindustrie zu stärken und zu entwickeln, unsere Aufgabe ist es, schneller und mehr zu produzieren.“
Wenn sie bei sich nicht produzieren können, kaufen sie bei den Amerikanern. Der deutsche Verteidigungsminister Pistorius hat in Washington diese Woche drei HIMARS Mehrfachraketenwerfer für die Ukraine gekauft. Außerdem wurde diese Woche bekannt, dass die EU einen Entwurf für ein Abkommen über Sicherheitsgarantien für Kiew ausgearbeitet hat. Wie andere bilaterale Verträge dieser Art beinhaltet auch dieser keine rechtlichen Verpflichtungen in Form einer künftigen militärischen Verteidigung der Ukraine. Die Parteien verpflichten sich nur, im Bedarfsfall innerhalb von 24 Stunden Konsultationen abzuhalten.
Das Kiewer Regime wäre jedoch nicht es selbst, wenn es auf Provokationen verzichten und nicht damit beginnen würde, Unterschriften für eine Petition zu sammeln, um ausländische Truppen in die Ukraine einzuladen – nach dem Motto, das fordert die Bevölkerung. Und es wäre auch nicht es selbst, wenn es zum Treffen von Selensky mit der Präsidentin des Europäischen Parlaments Roberta Metsola nicht die traditionelle Clownerie mit Sirene organisiert hätte.
Als der obligatorische Luftalarm während der gemeinsamen Pressekonferenz mit Metsola, die auf offener Straße abgehalten wurde, aufheulte, schüttelte Selensky den Kopf, blickte zum Himmel und zeigte den Europäern, dass der ganze Zirkus im Fernsehen nur für sie ist, als er Metsola fragte: „Wie fühlen sie sich?“
Sie antwortete gelassen „Alles in Ordnung“ und alle ignorierten den angeblichen Luftalarm und die Pressekonferenz ging weiter.
Was die ausländischen Truppen angeht, so sind sie bereits in der Ukraine, wie der polnische Premierminister Tusk direkt zugegeben hat, als er sagte: „Ohne die Hilfe der NATO wäre die Ukraine nicht in der Lage gewesen, sich so lange zu verteidigen. Nun, einige Truppen, Soldaten, Beobachter, Ingenieure sind in der Ukraine und helfen ihr. Aber so einen direkten Krieg will niemand.“
Sie wollen ihn nicht, aber sie sind bereits im Krieg: Man kann nicht Soldaten, Beobachter und Ingenieure schicken und denken, man sei nicht im Krieg. Schließlich sind es NATO-Spezialisten, die hochentwickelte Systeme wie Patriot, IRIS-T, HIMARS und Storm Shadow bedienen und von hinter dem Rücken der ehemaligen Zivilisten, die heute gewaltsam in die Armee eingezogen werden, schießen. Vielleicht wäre es richtiger zu sagen, dass der Westen seine Truppen nicht zu Zehntausenden in die Ukraine schicken will, obwohl er bereits eine große Truppe an der Grenze zu Russland und Weißrussland konzentriert hat.
„Wir beteiligen uns an Steadfast Defenderm der größten NATO-Übung seit dem Ende des Kalten Krieges. Wir zeigen Russland deutlich, dass wir in der Lage sind, schnell Truppen an die Ostflanke der NATO zu verlegen, Stellungen zu verstärken und uns notfalls selbst zu verteidigen“, sagte Bundeswehr-Oberstleutnant Sebastian Hagen.
Sie wollen sich verteidigen, indem sie das Kaliningrader Gebiet einnehmen, dieses strategische Ziel hat zumindest der ehemalige NATO-Generalstabschef James Stavridis ausgegeben. Er erklärte ausdrücklich, dass das Bündnis seine Ostsee nutzen wird, um Druck auf die zu neutralisierende russische Exklave auszuüben. Die drei größten Truppenübungsplätze an der Ostflanke der NATO – in Polen und Litauen – werden in diesem Szenario offenbar zu Kampfeinsatzgebieten umfunktioniert.
Bundeskanzler Scholz hat kürzlich in Begleitung des litauischen Präsidenten Nauseda eine Fahrt mit einem Schützenpanzer durch eines dieser Gebiete unternommen. Dafür hatte er das Treffen mit dem chinesischen Staatschef in Paris abgesagt. Danach reiste er nach Helsinki, um Präsident Stubb zu treffen. Niemand sonst macht die Wirtschaft seines Landes mit anti-russischen Sanktionen so kaputt wie Scholz. Die beiden hatten eine Menge zu besprechen.
„Das Ziel ist klar: Russland darf nie in Versuchung kommen, unsere Grenzen und unsere Einheit auf die Probe zu stellen“, erklärte der deutsche Bundeskanzler. „Deutschland selbst hat auf den Wandel in der Sicherheitspolitik stark reagiert. Wir geben mehr als zwei Prozent unseres BIP für die Verteidigung aus.“
Ausgeben tut er es, aber das Geld reicht trotzdem nicht. Der Einsatz einer Bundeswehrbrigade in Litauen ist finanziell noch nicht gesichert. Deutschland hat die zehn Milliarden Euro nicht, um die ständige Präsenz von Tausenden von Soldaten und ihren Familien zu organisieren, sagt Finanzminister Lindner.
Und überhaupt gibt es nichts, worauf man stolz sein kann. In einem Interview mit Dominic Cummings, dem ehemaligen Berater des ehemaligen britischen Premierministers Boris Johnson, gab es überraschende Enthüllungen und noch überraschendere Offenheit: „Dieser ukrainische korrupte Mafia-Staat hat uns im Grunde alle gefickt, und deshalb sind wir alle am Arsch. Wir werden ja auch jetzt noch verarscht, nicht wahr? Der Lebensstandard war ein Schock, die Sanktionen haben sich für die europäische Politik zu einer viel größeren Katastrophe entwickelt als für die russische Politik. Welche Lehre haben wir daraus gezogen? Nur, dass wir ein Haufen verdammter Idioten sind. Ich meine, Putin wusste das schon vor dem Krieg. Aber was jetzt passiert, unterstreicht und zeigt der Welt, dass wir nur Clowns sind. Wir haben ständig über einen NATO-Beitritt der Ukraine gesprochen. Russland hat wiederholt gesagt: ‚Tut das nicht, oder wir werden es zerstören.‘ Warum haben wir uns auf diesen dummen Streit eingelassen? Worüber? Über ein korruptes, abgefucktes Land, das völlig unwichtig ist?“ (Anm. d. Übers.: Im englischen Original waren die Formulierungen von Cummings noch viel deutlicher als in der russischen Übersetzung. In jedem Satz kam das Wort „fuck“ vor.)
Nach so einer Aussage bleibt nur eine Frage: Wie um alles in der Welt hat er für Johnson gearbeitet? Aber es geht gar nicht um die Ukraine, die ist, wie jeder längst verstanden hat, nur ein weiteres Instrument für die Arbeit an der Demontage Russlands.
„Es ist, als ob die Politiker in diesem Land versuchen, den Krieg zu gewinnen, indem Zeit vergeht“, sagte Siegfried Eichnoch, Oberstleutnant a.D. der DDR-Volksarmee.
Der Oberstleutnant a.D. der DDR-Volksarmee spiegelt genau die Bedeutung der Handlungen und Ziele des heutigen Europas wider, das weniger durch die Idee von rassischer als vielmehr moralischer Überlegenheit geeint wird. Daher die Ablehnung dessen, was kulturell mit unserem Sieg im Zweiten Weltkrieg zu tun hat, denn zum dritten Mal in Folge zwang die Berliner Polizei die Menschen am 9. Mai, ihre St.-Georgs-Bänder abzulegen, und verbot die russische Flagge und rote Fahnen. Die Polizei hat die Menschen nicht nur wegen Porträts von Wladimir Putin wieder weggeschickt, dieser Frau wurde aus dem Treptower Park geworfen, weil sie ein T-Shirt mit der Aufschrift „Druschba“ (Freundschaft) trug. Im Gegensatz dazu wurden Provokateure mit ukrainischen Fahnen geschützt, die hinter dem Rücken der Polizisten in der Menge nach Ordnungswidrigkeiten suchten und sie den Polizisten sofort zeigten.
Diejenigen, deren Waffen nur Blumen und Veteranenporträts waren, wurden im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes in Begleitung durch Metallzäune zum Denkmal geführt. So war das diesjährige „Unsterbliche Regiment“ in Berlin organisiert. Es war keine Prozession, die Polizei ließ die Menschen in Gruppen von zehn Personen zum Ehrenmal.
In der DDR war der Tag des Sieges ein Feiertag für das Volk. Egon Krenz war ehemaliger Regierungschef der DDR. Seine Berufsbezeichnung war Staatsratsvorsitzender. Trotz seines Alters und der großen Entfernung ist er jedes Jahr am 9. Mai im Treptower Park.
„Wenn hier das russische Lied ‚Heiliger Krieg‘ verboten wird, können Sie sich vorstellen, was die Menschen in Russland darüber denken. Das ist kein guter Weg, den Deutschland da eingeschlagen hat. Russland trauert um die 27 Millionen Menschen, die in dem Krieg gefallen sind. Deutsche Offizielle sollten hierher kommen, der Bundespräsident und der Bundeskanzler“, sagte Krenz.
Die deutsche Regierung kann natürlich einen Kranz schicken, aber sie geht nicht selbst in den Treptower Park. Es scheint, dass Helmut Kohl der letzte Bundeskanzler war, der das sowjetische Ehrenmal besucht hat, und das ist fast 30 Jahre her. Es war am letzten Tag des August 1994. Und damals war ihm das wichtig, denn er war zusammen mit Boris Jelzin Gastgeber der Abschiedsparade der russischen Truppen in Deutschland.
Vor der offiziellen Verabschiedung der russischen Truppen sagte Kohl, dass der 31. August in Zukunft von Deutschen und Russen gemeinsam im Geiste der Partnerschaft begangen werden soll. Aber diesen Tag, den 31. August, hat in Deutschland danach niemand im Geiste der Partnerschaft oder in irgendeiner anderen Weise gefeiert. Der Feiertag hat sich nicht durchgesetzt und die Russen sind friedlich abgezogen. Aber das Problem ist, dass sie ihre Denkmäler nicht mitgenommen haben.
(Ende des Korrespondentenberichtes, danach kam noch folgende Anmerkung des Moderators im Studio)
Michail Antonows ausgezeichneter Bericht aus Europa erwähnt die amerikanischen Sanktionen gegen China, insbesondere die Verhängung von Zöllen in Höhe von 100 Prozent auf direkte Lieferungen chinesischer Elektroautos und chinesischer Batterien für Elektroautos in die USA. Doch während der Marktanteil chinesischer Elektroautos in den USA nur ein Prozent ausmacht, liegt der Marktanteil chinesischer Batterien bei 70 Prozent!
Das heißt, mehr als zwei Drittel des amerikanischen Marktes für Elektroauto-Batterien sind bereits von den Chinesen besetzt, weil sie billig und von hoher Qualität sind. Die Amerikaner haben das also verpennt.
Als sie aufwachten, erklärten sie China einen echten Handelskrieg, wie wir es ihn noch nie gegeben hat. Und was sollte Peking tun? Peking handelt asymmetrisch, bisher im Geiste des kontaktlosen Karate, dessen Wurzeln in China liegen, und es handelt schnell – buchstäblich blitzschnell.
Bereits während des Besuchs von Präsident Xi in Frankreich wurde ein Abkommen über den Bau einer chinesischen Fabrik für die Produktion von Elektroautos in einem Joint Venture unterzeichnet. Das ist das Erste.
Zweitens wurde während des Besuchs des Vorsitzenden Xi in Ungarn ein Abkommen über den Bau einer Fabrik zur Herstellung von Batterien für Elektroautos unterzeichnet.
Es besteht kein Zweifel daran, dass die Fabriken in Frankreich und Ungarn so schnell gebaut werden, wie China Covid-Krankenhäuser auf dem freien Feld gebaut hat. Und um zu verhindern, dass diese europäischen Elektroautos auf den amerikanischen Markt kommen, werden die USA der EU, also ihren NATO-Partnerländern, einen Handelskrieg erklären müssen. Legen Sie sich Popcornvorräte an!
Und bis dahin wird das passieren, was uns unter dem Namen „Parallelimporte“ schmerzlich bekannt ist: Chinesische Autos und Batterien werden über Drittländer in die USA kommen, zum Beispiel über Mexiko. Es geht ja bisher nur um ein Verbot von direkten Lieferungen aus China. Gleichzeitig wird China sein Angebot auf dem übrigen Weltmarkt erhöhen. Der ist gewaltig. Die chinesische Autoindustrie wird den Rest der amerikanischen Autoindustrie nach und nach verdrängen. Und das war’s dann auch schon.

Ihre Energie und ihr Engagement auf dem Platz machen sie zu aufregenden Spielern für die Zukunft des Vereins.
Darüber hinaus hat Chelsea auch in der Transferperiode klug investiert, um den Kader weiter zu verstärken. Neue Spieler wie Jude Bellingham und Giovanni Reyna bringen frischen Wind in das Team und bieten zusätzliche Optionen für Tuchel.

Unter der Leitung von Tuchel strebt das Team weiterhin nach Erfolg auf nationaler und internationaler Ebene, und mit einem so talentierten Kader ist die Zukunft des Vereins zweifellos vielversprechend.

2024.05.10 12:00 viewtoathrill Dogville (2003)

2024: Post #69 Watched April 19th As part of the Curzon Lars von Trier Complete Collection IMDB Directed by: Lars von Trier Written by: Lars von Trier TSPDT: 416
178 minutes. For a director known to challenge himself and place restrictions on his own filmmaking, nothing likely compares to the restriction of relying solely on the imagination of the audience to fill out all of the visuals within the film.
One fascinating thing about Lars von Trier, that I feel is under discussed, is how he is constantly inventing. Almost every movie has some story of a technique he is testing, a piece of equipment he has invented, or restrictions he places on himself that serve the broader purpose of forcing creativity and not growing stale. The more I learn about him as a filmmaker the more I see him as a very curious mind who is always tinkering. He’s the James Cameron of independent, emotionally challenging, well-written, arthouse cinema. A lot of what he did was only ever discovered by those who dug deep behind the scenes, like the fact that the dance scenes in Dancer in the Dark had 100 cameras set up in random spots around the room so he could get unnatural angles that would not commonly be captured. But none of what he has done is as obvious as Dogville.
He seems to question if it’s possible to fully rely on the imagination of the audience. The story of Dogville takes place in a tiny community up in the mountains, and each home is just outlined with chalk on a soundstage. There is nothing three dimensional in the story other than a few chairs and beds and furniture within the outlined homes. The craziest thing is, even though there’s an adjustment period to get into this odd world, the brain fills in the blanks extremely well. I honestly forgot it was on a soundstage until the final scene when they cut into the interior of a car and then back out to the stage so we’re all reminded of the difference.
In addition to the creative visual tricks, Dogville is also a well-written story. Nicole Kidman stumbles her way into a mountain town, seemingly escaping from something. The town does uncover what she’s hiding from, but they agree to hide her and she begins to integrate into their community. There is a nasty trick here where von Trier leads us to believe the town of Dogville embraces Kidman. She is an empathetic person and learns what each person needs. She is a great neighbor, and seemingly a very sweet person.
I don’t believe von Trier has a high opinion of human nature, however, as the back half of the movie he asks us to watch the systematic dehumanization of Kidman at the hands of a town that turns on her vulnerability. Each member of the town betrays her in a different way, some aggressively, some opportunistically, and some passively. Doesn’t matter to the victim, however, and my heart broke for this poor woman who bared her soul and was met with venom and a surprising lack of humanity. She should probably die based on how she’s treated, but we see a different ending, something much more nihilistic.
The name of Kidman’s character is grace. It’s an interesting choice for her name because she gives grace endlessly, receives none, and ultimately we see a side of her that is much more keen on justice than grace. I haven’t been able to piece together one unifying meaning of Dogville, but I do believe one of them is for us to watch how those in power can be beaten and abused but always end up on top.
Look, it’s tough to sell a 3-hour movie that is completely shot on a soundstage with only chalk outlines to guide the scene changes. It’s even tougher to sell a movie like this about a seemingly pure woman who gets taken advantage of and abused by the very protectors that took her in. It’s a movie that simply shouldn’t work, but it does. This is a phenomenal film.

2024.05.09 22:00 saldrac Any way to complete all Shadow Inquisition objectives in one playthrough?

I started a week ago a playthrough as the Sisters of St John.
I managed to get support and restore the Red Order and the Oculi Dei, since both of them were close to me and I could get that dynasties as vassals.
The problem is, I'm in 1351 and the St James Sword, the Knights of Acre and the House von Murnau don't have any living members. So I can do the support decisions but not the restoring ones.
At this point I would settle for being able to complete The Light of God decision(reunite the Shadow Inquisition) but I'm not sure if you can do it by just doing the "get support from" decisions and not the "restore" ones.
Can any of you, my siblings in WoD, give me some info about it?
