TV/Movies / Netflix Cancels The Punisher And Jessica Jones by dailyng: 7:17pm On Feb 18, 2019
Netflix is officially no longer producing Marvel’s live-action shows. The streaming service has canceled both The Punisher and Jessica Jones, according to Deadline, with the latter’s third season set to debut as the last batch of Marvel live-action episodes on Netflix.

“We are grateful to Marvel for five years of our fruitful partnership and thank the passionate fans who have followed these series from the beginning,”

Marvel Head of Television Jeph Loeb posted a letter to fans of the Netflix-Marvel shows on Monday, thanking them for supporting each of the series as well as The Defenders teamup. The letter does not refer to Netflix by name, but teases that Disney may continue the characters’ stories elsewhere.

Sports / Zidane Wants The Chelsea Job If They Match His Terms by dailyng: 6:44pm On Feb 18, 2019
The French legend is keen to talk seriously about taking over as boss and turn the Blues into contenders again at home and abroad with a £200m transfer kitty.

If he were to succeed under-pressure Maurizio Sarri, Zidane has a three-part wishlist:

1) New bumper deal for superstar playmaker Eden Hazard, keeping the Belgian to build a team around.

2) £200m to improve the squad — more if he sells players who are currently at Stamford Bridge but are out of favour.

3) A major say in recruitment alongside Blues director Marina Granovskaia.

SunSport revealed last week that Chelsea’s top brass wanted Zidane, who has won the Champions League three times as manager and once as a player at Real Madrid.

Sarri remains in charge for now and has some huge games coming up — starting with Manchester United at home in the FA Cup fifth round tonight.

Health / Man Narrates Killing A Lion With His Bare Hands by dailyng: 6:27pm On Feb 17, 2019
Last Monday, Travis Kauffman went for a [size=8pt]run near Fort Collins, Colorado. Little did he know his workout would include suffocating a mountain lion.

“I feel like I should go buy a bunch of lottery tickets,” he said.

Authorities on Thursday identified Kauffman as the runner who won a fight to the death struggle last week after the cat ambushed him along the trail.

Kauffman — a 31-year-old who moved to Fort Collins about five years ago to live a more active, outdoor lifestyle — described the nightmarish experience in a February 11 interview with Colorado Parks and Wildlife. A video of that interview was shown to reporters on Thursday, and Kauffman repeated his account at a press conference afterward.

“It was just pure adrenaline,” he told reporters. “There was a certain point where I just kind of imagined being stuck on this hillside and eventually just having a cat gnaw at me, which is a creepy way to go. But, for the most part, the adrenaline just kept kicking in at those moments.”

Kauffman was running in the Horsetooth Mountain Open Space on February 4 when he heard the rustling of pine needles somewhere behind him.

He typically wouldn’t have turned his head to look, assuming the noise belonged to a smaller “woodland creature.”

“But in the back of my mind there’s always that thought that it could be something else,” Kauffman said. “And that something else this time happened to be a mountain lion.”

“I just kind of had my heart sink into my stomach a little bit,” Kauffman said.

The cat was about 10 feet away, said Kauffman, and he threw up his arms and began yelling in an attempt to scare the animal off.

It didn’t work.

The cat pounced, latching its jaws around Kauffman’s wrist as he tried to protect his face from the claws scratching at his face and legs.

He tried to throw the cat off of him, but both man and lion tumbled down a slope, and a “wrestling match” ensued, Kauffman said.

He eventually managed to pin down the cat’s back legs as he reached for sticks and rocks to strike the mountain lion and force it off of him. All the while his arm was still trapped in the cat’s mouth.
