It’s how I know that painting of the dogs playing pool is a fake. Yes, I know, sorry to break it to you. Dogs can’t hold pool cues, you see, so that’s why you won’t see a Border collie heft the world snooker trophy any time soon, even though they sport the regulation black and white outfit.
We fear no zombie apocalypse. The Scots can stand defiant before any threatened attempt to reduce us to mindless, shuffling, dribbling undead, who would thus be able to work without rest breaks, holiday pay or pension rights.
Hold it. Think I’ve just got myself a standing ovation at the Tory party conference.
We know how to make zombies shamble off like vampires fleeing garlic. We would stand shoulder to shoulder and face down this menace with soup. Yes, I stand second to no-one in my admiration for the curative powers of Scottish soup. Only last week, the girl-child and myself were struck by the horror of That Wee Bug That’s Going Around.
To La Cerise of Great Junction Street, to load up on its outstanding leek and potato soup.
Within the hour, we were near recovered, and ready to take on the world. I have no idea why we aren’t feeding this to our athletes. Bet there isn’t a drugs test for leek and potato, or good old-fashioned chicken soup.
Welcome to the Palazzo di Amore.
When real estate mogul Jeff Greene listed his Beverly Hills mansion in November 2014 for $195 million, it made waves as the most expensive home for sale in the US.
Now, it appears Greene is trying to squeeze some value out of the house before it sells. It's been listed as a rental with a jaw-dropping asking price of $475,000 a month, according to Curbed LA.
Known as the "Palazzo di Amore," Greene's home was built for parties. It has an entertainment complex and ballroom that can fit 250 guests, a private-label vineyard, and parking garages for more than two dozen cars.
Greene, who made a fortune when the real estate bubble burst, is worth some $2.2 billion. With its $195 million listing price, his home is by far the most expensive on the US market, beating a Florida home currently listed at $139 million.
Joyce Rey and Stacy Gottula of Coldwell Banker Previews International have the listing.
The Palazzo di Amore is not your ordinary mansion. It's a true party palace, with space to entertain 1,000 guests.
Visitors pass through three sets of gates before arriving at the grand home. The two-story entry has a pair of curved marble staircases.
The 15,000-square-foot "entertainment complex" is what sets this home apart. It has a ballroom with a revolving floor and can host 250 for a seated dinner.
Guests enter through a floating glass-floor walkway lined with olive trees.
There's a screening room that seats 50, as well as a bowling alley and game room.
Did we mention that the wine cellar holds 3,000 bottles and a tasting room?
But you'll need all that storage space, since the Palazzo di Amore has its own private-label vineyard, which produces around 400 cases a year.
Conveniently for your guests, the property has parking for 150 cars, as well as garages for 27.
Of course, it's not all fun and games. Get lost in thought by the 128-foot reflecting pool and fountain.
Or chill out in your personal spa. Or take a swim in the spacious pool. Or play a round of tennis on your private court.
With 53,000 square feet of space, this mansion is truly gigantic.
The home has 23 bathrooms and 12 bedrooms, including a 5,000-square-foot master suite. That's a small mansion in its own right.
And the views are undoubtedly spectacular.

Kilmarnock showed heartening resolve and spirit to earn a valuable point against a typically formidable Hearts side at Rugby Park.
The hosts' composed start was rewarded when Conrad Balatoni scrambled in, but Gavin Reilly tapped in to equalise almost immediately.
After the break, Hearts took the lead through a Callum Paterson volley.
But Josh Magennis headed in his ninth goal of the season to ensure Kilmarnock started 2016 in positive fashion.
Despite having only one victory from their previous nine games and just four at home last year, 11th placed Kilmarnock did not start like a side short of confidence.
Gary Locke's men zipped the ball about with energy and their deep-lying midfielder for the day - Stevie Smith - was at the heart of that promising play.
Former Hearts defender Kevin McHattie slid in to deny Hearts striker Reilly early on and visiting goalkeeper Neil Alexander repeated that competency with a vital save with his leg from a low Magennis shot.
Tope Obadeyi was productive down the right for the hosts so was expected to be missed when he limped off, but Smith continued to drive Killie on.
He dispossessed Juwon Oshaniwa before Magennis took over and sent a low ball whizzing across goal for Balatoni. The defender, who was still up from a corner kick, almost made a hash of converting but managed to do so from a yard after his initial flick had been blocked.
Hearts, still venting their frustration that referee Alan Muir had not deemed McHattie and Lee Ashcroft's combined challenge on Juanma as worthy of a penalty, did not have to wait long to start cheering.
Kilmarnock goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald, who spent seven years at Tynecastle, turned Billy King's whipped low effort on to a post, but Reilly pounced to slot in his third goal for Hearts since joining from Queen of the South.
Things took another turn for the worse for the hosts 10 minutes after the break.
MacDonald made a terrific point-blank save from Prince Buaben but the ensuing looped clearance was chested down and volleyed into the bottom right-hand corner of the net by Paterson.
Kilmarnock sent a few wayward shots goal-ward but Hearts' Brazilian defender Igor Rossi came closer when his looping header bounced off the crossbar.
Digging deep into their reserves of spirit and character was what was required of Killie in order to give 2016 a positive beginning, and that's exactly what they did.
Smith's contribution, fittingly, proving crucial once again as his in-swinging corner was headed into the top left-hand corner by Magennis.

Wednesday will mark 11 months since police shot 20-year-old Zoe Dowdell to death and wounded two teenage friends, but parents of the survivors are still trying to learn exactly what happened during the deadly traffic stop.
“It’s amazing to me it’s been kept quiet as long as it has,” said William Tisdol, father of one of the teenagers shot by police who said they stopped the car because it matched the description of a vehicle used in a series of violent carjackings at the time.
“The fact is the families and the community can’t get any straight answers. Politicians and civic leaders are not willing to talk — then people are left to their own devices imagining what is on the video,” said Cornell Lewis, a community activist in Greater Hartford who coordinated a rally on the families’ behalf this fall.
Speakers at two recent protest rallies in downtown New Britain condemned city police for withholding evidence — and police dashboard camera videos — about what happened on the evening of Dec. 14, 2017.
The city turned over the matter to state troopers immediately after the shooting, and said it doesn’t have the videos from the incident, witness statements or other evidence.
To avoid conflict or the appearance of conflict, prosecutors determined early on that State’s Attorney Peter McShane of Middlesex County would run the investigation into the shooting. But earlier this year when McShane became a Superior Court judge, the Middlesex state’s attorney’s office transferred the case to State’s Attorney John Smriga in Fairfield County.
Since the shooting Dec. 14, 2017, parents of Dowdell and the wounded teenagers — Noah Young and Caleb Tisdol — have been shown small segments of a police dashboard camera video of the shooting. But they haven’t seen the full videos from at least two patrol cars at the scene, and they have no idea when state investigators will produce a detailed report.
Dowdell’s parents are pursuing a Freedom of Information case to get the dashcam videos and 911 calls released. The families of Caleb Tisdol and Noah Young enlisted the help of Lewis, a long-time Hartford activist, and backed a rally in September in downtown New Britain to push for release of the tapes.
McShane said earlier this year that letting the public see the tapes might cloud the memories of potential witnesses, but promised all information would be released when the investigation ends. Smriga did not return two message from The Courant, but Lewis said he recently got Smriga’s assurance that the tapes will become public when he finishes investigating.
“I credit him for talking with me, but told him the community’s patience is not infinite,” Lewis said.
Privately, some New Britain police officers say they, too, are eager for the investigation to end. Five officers involved in the shooting have been on restricted duty for the past 11 months, straining the department’s patrol resources. Some officers say they don’t want to start 2019 with the case still hanging over the department.
On the evening of Dec. 14, 2017 police said they had extra officers on the streets to look for a group of young men who were committing robberies and violent carjackings. Two officers saw Dowdell driving — with Noah Young and Caleb Tisdol as passengers — and pursued his car, saying it matched the description of the suspects’ vehicle.
Several police cars converged on Chapman Street and tried to stop Dowdell’s car. Police said he drove toward officers, forcing them to fire. But William Tisdol said the segment of video he saw clearly showed his son had his hands up and Dowdell’s car was stopped.
Tisdol, and his wife, Dondi Morrell, joined Gwen Cordero, mother of Noah Young, in saying 11 months is far too long for the investigation to go on.
“They put out this image of these three young men as terrorists. My theory is if the video showed Caleb, Noah and Zoe shooting outside the car and striking a couple of police officers, that footage would have been out the same day,” Morrell said.
Investigations into police use of force can become lengthy, especially in cases where a suspect is killed. It took almost nine months after Bridgeport Officer James Boulay shot 15-year-old Jayson Negron to death in 2017 before a prosecutor concluded the shooting was justified.
In recent years, reports on fatal police shootings in Stamford, Montville and Suffield took 18 months, 13 months and six months, respectively. All three cleared the officers involved.
New Britain police have filed weapons and drug charges against Tisdol and Young in connection with the incident, and have charged Tisdol with a half-dozen robberies around the state.
Tisdol’s father maintains those charges are groundless, and that police and the prison system have treated his son more harshly than a convicted murderer. Noah Young is being held at Northern Correctional Institution, the state’s maximum-security prison in Somers. Caleb Tisdol is in the Manson Youth Institution in Cheshire.
Lewis said it’s time for the secrecy to end.
It was all the way back in season one of The Vampire Diaries, of course. The show hasn’t worried about doing too much in a long time. It’s easier to name the tropes this show hasn’t used.
Speaking to EW, executive producer and showrunner Julie Plec said that the mother of Matt Donovan’s Zach Roerig, Kelly (played by Melinda Clark), was originally going to be revealed as a succubus. It was part of the show trying to figure out how many supernatural beings were too many. They drew the line at the succubus.

It’s how I know that painting of the dogs playing pool is a fake. Yes, I know, sorry to break it to you. Dogs can’t hold pool cues, you see, so that’s why you won’t see a Border collie heft the world snooker trophy any time soon, even though they sport the regulation black and white outfit.

We fear no zombie apocalypse. The Scots can stand defiant before any threatened attempt to reduce us to mindless, shuffling, dribbling undead, who would thus be able to work without rest breaks, holiday pay or pension rights.

Hold it. Think I’ve just got myself a standing ovation at the Tory party conference.

We know how to make zombies shamble off like vampires fleeing garlic. We would stand shoulder to shoulder and face down this menace with soup. Yes, I stand second to no-one in my admiration for the curative powers of Scottish soup. Only last week, the girl-child and myself were struck by the horror of That Wee Bug That’s Going Around.

To La Cerise of Great Junction Street, to load up on its outstanding leek and potato soup.

Within the hour, we were near recovered, and ready to take on the world. I have no idea why we aren’t feeding this to our athletes. Bet there isn’t a drugs test for leek and potato, or good old-fashioned chicken soup.
