We would’ve just called her ONJ now. But part of the appeal, I think, was all of that name, the possible royalty of it. Nobody wanted to waste a syllable. Olivia New to n - John . Just saying it might bestow a crown. The rest of her allure sprang from that classiness: She was neither queen nor first lady of anything, yet she seemed, ultimately, like … a lady. And that was something she could have some fun with, a category she could smudge. Eventually. I mean, this was a person who, at the heights of funk, disco and glam rock, recorded six country-esque albums, throw pillows for your ears. And most of their singles topped what was once known as Billboard’s easy listening chart. (So maybe she was the queen of that.) By the end of the 1970s, though, she had figured out the whole “lady” thing and spent 90 percent of her first Hollywood movie disguised that way, as a princess. There’s a lot going on in “Grease.” Most of it’s bizarre and has to do with sex and a sort of pure … [Read more...] about Olivia Newton-John: That Headband Was a Crown

There are two ways to examine the exploding controversy over Ezra Miller and his upcoming $200 million Flash movie. The first is this: In the fascist woke universe, of course, The Flash should never see the light of day. The movie should be scrapped, burned, and its ashes scattered over the Indian Ocean. Look at the precedents set in this universe… Disney blacklisted actress Gina Carano over nothing more than not being a leftist. Johnny Depp was blacklisted for five years(!) before he was vindicated in court. The Great Woody Allen has been blacklisted after two states — two ! — found him innocent. Put another way, the Nazis who run Woke Hollywood have been disappearing, destroying, and annihilating people and careers for supposed sins that don’t even come close to the horrors attributed to Ezra Miller. So, of course, The Flash should never see the light of day. The second way to look at it is this: In a just and sane universe, the very idea of attaching purity tests to … [Read more...] about Nolte: Ezra Miller’s Alleged Scumbaggery Should Not Kill Release of ‘Flash’ Movie

By holiday shopping season next year, Thornton will be home to 80 new outlet stores offering discount, name-brand merchandise. That’s the timeline for Denver Premium Outlets , a 330,000-square-foot retail center that celebrated its groundbreaking at the northeast corner of East 136th Avenue and Interstate 25 on Thursday. Simon Premium Outlets, a division of Simon Property Group , is the owner/developer behind the project that local officials expect to draw shoppers from across the north metro area when shops open next fall. “This is going to give us a whole new option, not only for our city but all the cities around here,” Thornton Mayor Heidi Williams said. “It’s really going to be a regional project. It’s super exciting.” Simon executives said the property attracted the company — also owner of the Colorado Mills and Denver West Village mall in Lakewood — because it has access and visibility from I-25 and scenic views to the west. John Villapiano, senior director of … [Read more...] about Thornton celebrates forthcoming Denver Premium Outlets at I-25 and 136th Avenue

John Ferak , Patch Staff Posted | Updated Replies JOLIET, IL — A 78-page report prepared by Joliet's Westmont-based inspector general has determined two-term Joliet City Councilman Pat Mudron violated the city's code of ethics by obtaining a no-bid $248,000 contract in April to provide the Rialto Square Theatre with insurance coverage.

Thornton on Tuesday offered — for the second time — a $3.75 million incentive package to Topgolf to land the giant golf entertainment complex at the city’s northern edge. The incentive package, which would rebate part of Topgolf’s property and sales taxes over the next decade, was similar to the one extended by Thornton to the Dallas-based company 18 months ago when it was considering another location in the city. But that location, at the Interstate 25 and 136th Avenue interchange, spurred a pair of legal challenges from residents living in the golf course-anchored Rolling Hills neighborhood, who claimed that a 65,000-square-foot facility featuring late-night drinking and dining was not appropriate near a residential area. Neighbors also objected to a project that they said would feature bright lights and 170-foot-high safety nets at a three-story, 102-bay facility, claiming the lighting and nets would be disruptive and dangerous for wildlife. A judge sided with the … [Read more...] about Topgolf lured to Thornton with millions in incentives — once again
