The Bold Ones: The New Doctors (also known as The New Doctors) is an American medical drama that lasted for four seasons on NBC, from 1969 to 1973. The series focuses on the life of Dr. David Craig (E. G. Marshall), an extremely successful neurosurgeon who is so renowned in his field that he is able to open his own very exclusive clinic called The David Craig Institute of New Medicine.
Craig has enlisted two "bold" young medical executives, chief of surgery Dr. Ted Stuart (John Saxon) and Paul Hunter (David Hartman). The character Dr. Stuart was later replaced by Dr. Cohen (Robert Walden).
The New Doctors was part of The Bold Ones, a rotating series of dramas that also included The Protectors (with Leslie Nielsen), The Lawyers (with Burl Ives) and The Senator (with Hal Holbrook). The New Doctors was the only one of the four series to last for the entire run.
David Hartman was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for portraying Paul Hunter on this show.

je suis parisien
From: The Lisp
These latest terror attacks have left this fractured heart in pieces. Longtime readers will know that Paris is my favorite city.
I have many fond memories of my visits to Paris, and spending a year in Paris is still on my bucket list, but this, this is yet another punch in the gut of what's been happening in my beloved city.
It's been a decade or so since I've visited this glorious town. You only need step a single foot down on it's storied streets and get swept up in the romance, art and love of this amazing place.
In the last decade, we've all seen the mass shooting at Charlie Hebdo. Islamophobic incidents have increased year over year; one incident involving police and a Muslim youth led to riots that led to civil unrest, rioting and flames. I sat stunned watching half a million people marching in protest against gay couples adopting children. But still...my love for this place persists...
We cannot, should not, ignore the racism and Islamophobia that infiltrates French society.
Was it political? Was it a message? We may never know why Paris was targeted. Already, rumors are suggesting that Rome, London and Washington are the next cities to be attacked.
If I can leave ONE thought or message... PLEASE...do your part to protect Muslims throughout the world. The people that carried out these attacks have twisted and corrupted the words of the Quran to justify their actions.
9 Of The Dreamiest Baes From Classic Literature

Mr. Darcy
Pride and Prejudice
The original bae, Mr. Darcy has it all: looks, money, social standing, coiffed hair. He’s the bachelor to end all bachelors, and though it is his uncouth and snobbish slight of our lovely heroine Elizabeth that sets much of the plot of Pride and Prejudice into action, he more than makes up for his bad behavior by the novel’s end:
I was taught what was right, but I was not taught to correct my temper. I was given good principles, but left to follow them in pride and conceit. […] I was spoilt by my parents, who, though good themselves […] almost taught me to be selfish and overbearing; to care for none beyond my own family circle; to think meanly of all the rest of the world; to wish at least to think meanly of their sense and worth compared with my own.
