in 63 BCE by a political dodge. By now he had become a controversial political figure. After the
suppression of Catiline’s conspiracy in 63 BCE, Caesar, as well as the millionaire Marcus
Licinius Crassus, was accused of complicity. It seems unlikely that either of them had committed
himself to Catiline; but Caesar proposed in the Senate a more merciful alternative to the death
penalty, which the consul Cicero was asking for the arrested conspirators. In the uproar in the
Senate, Caesar’s motion was defeated.
Caesar was elected a praetor for 62 BCE. Toward the end of the year of his praetorship, a
scandal was caused by Publius Clodius in Caesar’s house at the celebration there of the rites,
for women only, of Bona Dea (a Roman deity of fruitfulness, both in the Earth and in women).
Caesar consequently divorced Pompeia. He obtained the governorship of Farther Spain for
61–60 BCE. His creditors did not let him leave Rome until Crassus had gone bail for a quarter of
his debts; but a military expedition beyond the northwest frontier of his province enabled Caesar
to win loot for himself as well as for his soldiers, with a balance left over for the treasury. This
partial financial recovery enabled him, after his return to Rome in 60 BCE, to stand for the
consulship for 59 BCE.
[10/15, 22:27] SKILL INDIA: Bob Saget
American comedian Robert Lane Saget was an American stand-up comedian, actor, and
television host. He portrayed Danny Tanner on the sitcom Full House and its sequel Fuller
House. Saget was the original host of America’s Funniest Home Videos, and the voice of
narrator Ted Mosby on the sitcom How I Met Your Mother.Following a short stint as a member of
CBS’ The Morning Program in early 1987, Saget was cast as Danny Tanner in Full House,
which became a success with family viewers, and landed in the Nielsen ratings’ Top 30
beginning with season three. In 1989, Saget began as the host of America’s Funniest Home
Videos, a role he held until 1997. During the early 1990s, Saget worked on both Full House and
AFV simultaneously. In 2009, he returned to AFV for the 20th-anniversary one-hour special
co-hosted with Tom Bergeron.In 2014, his book Dirty Daddy was released, in which he writes
about his career, comedy influences, and experiences with life and death. He embarked on a
small tour in support of the book, including the Pemberton Music Festival, where he introduced
Snoop Dogg prior to performing his own set. In the same year, he toured Australia for the first
time with a stand-up show called Bob Saget Live: The Dirty Daddy Tour. The show was
performed in the major cities of Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Perth.Bob Saget, the
stand-up comic and actor who was known as Danny Tanner on the long-running sitcom “Full
House,” as the host of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” and for his deadpan, ribald stage
routines, was found dead on Sunday in Orlando, Fla. He was 65.
His death was confirmed by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, which said that Mr. Saget was
found unresponsive in a hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes. The cause was
not known, but the sheriff’s office said there were no signs of foul play or drug use.
Mr. Saget, who was on tour, had performed on Saturday night at Ponte Vedra Concert Hall in
Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., southeast of Jacksonville. In a tweet early on Sunday, he thanked the
“appreciative audience.”
“I had no idea I did a 2 hr set tonight,” he said. “I’m happily addicted again to this.”On “Full
House,” Mr. Saget played a widowed father who shared his house with his three daughters
(Candace Cameron, Jodi Sweetin and, alternating as the youngest daughter, Mary-Kate and
Ashley Olsen), his brother-in-law (John Stamos) and his best friend (Dave Coulier). The show,
seen on ABC from 1987 to 1995, got consistently good ratings and made stars of Mr. Saget and
his fellow cast members, including Lori Loughlin, who joined in the third season.
Robert Lane Saget was born on May 17, 1956, in Philadelphia. He graduated from Temple
University in 1978 before finding his way into comedy clubs. In contrast to his squeaky-clean
image on “Full House” and “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” he became known for raunchy,
profanity-laden stand-up routines.
At Temple, Mr. Saget studied film, and in the year of his graduation he received a student
Academy Award for documentary merit for his film “Through Adam’s Eyes,” about a nephew of
his who had undergone facial reconstructive surgery.
But even then he was pursuing comedy. He told The Philadelphia Inquirer in 2016 that he had
won a local radio contest at 17 by singing a song about bondage, and that while he spent most
of his time at Temple shooting film, he would also go to the University of Pennsylvania’s campus
to do improv.After graduating, Mr. Saget moved to Los Angeles and became a constant
presence at one of the city’s main comedy clubs, the Comedy Store. “I lived in that room for
seven years,” he said on the comedian Marc Maron’s podcast in 2010.
“I did jokes and some stories, but most of them were just silly — dirty silly,” he remembered. He
said he had been drawn to jokes with foul language and raw anatomical references because he
wasn’t supposed to talk that way in his youth.Originally planned to pursue a career in medicine
