Papa John's Blames the NFL for Hurting Pizza Sales 🍕📉🔥

Papa John’s International Inc. founder John Schnatter is going after NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, saying weak handling of the league’s national-anthem controversy has hammered sales of his pizza.

“The NFL has hurt us by not resolving the current debacle to the players’ and owners’ satisfaction,” Schnatter, who serves as the pizza chain’s chairman and chief executive officer, said on a conference call. “NFL leadership has hurt Papa John’s shareholders.”

The remarks follow a controversy over NFL football players protesting during the national anthem, a movement that started last season. The demonstrations have sparked calls for a boycott and raised concerns among league sponsors. But Schnatter’s comments mark the highest-profile example of an NFL partner publicly blaming the outcry for hurting business.

"A friend" anonymously donated $85, thereby reaching the goal.

However my sister and brother in law gave me $200, but sent a check. So really I raised $900.

At the end of my pitch I promise to donate any excess to the Portland Rescue Mission. One of my donors advised me to hold on to any excess. I decided that's wise advice, so I'll wait until after I get my next paycheck to donate to the rescue mission.

I remain angry at GoFundMe for posting my campaign at Facebook with the demand "Donate Now!". I was mortified. I edited the post - I'm glad I could do so - then apologized to all my FB friends, and sent a note of apology to all my donors.

The usual crowdfunding advice is to ask all of one's friends and family to donate. I didn't do that. Rather I mailed them all my campaign link with a request that they forward the message to _their_ friends and family.

That is, I was shaking down a bunch of complete strangers for _their_ money.

All but one of my donors are complete strangers. The one friend - he gave me $125 - I've known since he and I worked together on multimedia CDs at Medior, just before the dot-com boom hit. Doug Clarke is a good guy.

A couple ACs wanted to donate cryptocurrency. I set up LTC, BTC and ETH wallets at CoinBase. I'm pleased that CoinBase is so easy to use.

This morning someone gave me LTC 0.9990. CoinBase said that's worth more than fifty dollars.

Whoever did that just made my whole day.

The disadvantage of the crypto donations is that I do not know who to thank.

I'm also soliciting donations at The Global Computer Employer Index. The anonymous donation could have come from one of my site's visitors.

In this last case, I'm not asking for charity, but to enable me to spend more time listing companies. I have the hope that I will build out the site enough, and help enough job hunters that I could work on it full-time.

To catch a ‘ninja’ thief: Osaka police unmask 74-year-old cat burglar

Police in Osaka have finally nabbed a nimble “ninja” thief who dressed in black and scrambled over walls to commit scores of break-ins over an eight-year career — and were astonished to find he was 74.

Police had been stumped by a string of burglaries, their only lead being security camera footage showing an agile thief with a black neck-warmer pulled up to the nose and a parker hood down to the eyebrows.

“He was dressed all in black just like a ninja,” a senior official at the Kawachi Police Station said.

But the master thief made a mistake in May — his neck-warmer slipped and his identity was revealed on camera.

Police recognized their man as Mitsuaki Tanigawa, 74, who had a previous record of thefts.

I get paid when my driver reaches beta, but I do not know yet when that will be. I'm taking quite a lot longer than I originally estimated because I didn't write any device drivers during my madness and my homelessness. I was eventually able to recover my 1337-ness in the last month.

GoFundMe so far enables me to pay my chiropractor for November, to cover the copays for my happy pills, and groceries for two weeks. I still need to cover can now cover my telephone and Internet.

My dental insurance is just $18.00 dental insurance. Dental is required by ObamaCare. Were I not a contract programmer I could do without the phone and net for a little while, but since I _am_ a contract programmer I need them.

(AC just donated $100 on GoFund Me. :-) )

My chiropractor is treating Cervical Radiculopathy - a pinched nerve in my neck that causes excruciating pain in my left arm. Nine "adjustments" so far have greatly reduced the pain, but he said I would require eight weeks, three adjustments per week.

I was looking into surgery when a spinal surgeon advised me to exhaust all other treatments first. He - the spinal surgeon - specifically recommend chiropractic.

I mostly appeared sane online the last few years, but really I was totally out of my tree. One day I told a couple of complete strangers that I was a Secret Service Agent. I really did believe that at the time. They at least pretended they believed me.

There is always some tiny speck of truth from which grows my delusions and hallucinations: I have a friend who knows Jimmy Carter. Somehow that speck sprouted all over my yard.

This is a reminder for me (or you) to check back in a week, assuming it is overshadowed by other news:

The JFK Document Dump Could Be a Fiasco

Trump, no stranger to conspiracy theories, including totally unsubstantiated theories about a link between Ted Cruz’s father and JFK’s death, has not yet revealed his plans for the documents. His friend and political adviser Roger Stone, the Republican consultant who is the author of a book claiming that President Lyndon Johnson was the mastermind of the Kennedy assassination, said last week that he has been informed authoritatively that the CIA is urging Trump to delay the release of some of the JFK documents for another 25 years. “They must reflect badly on the CIA even though virtually everyone involved is long dead,” Stone said in a statement on his website.

The CIA has not confirmed or denied reports that it has appealed to Trump to block the release of some of the files on grounds that the documents might still somehow endanger national security if made public. In a cryptic statement last week, the spy agency said only that it “continues to engage in the process to determine the appropriate next steps with respect to any previously unreleased CIA information.”

As it stands now, the document release this month will be a logistical nightmare, with the public suddenly flooded with a huge online library of documents—tens of thousands in total—that will be, at first, mostly incomprehensible even to experienced students of the assassination. The National Archives, abandoning its plans to release the documents in batches over the course of several months, said this week that it will instead release everything at once—all on the same day—sometime between now and the deadline on October 26.
