The Rea Irvin Talk Watch 

This week marks the 9th “anniversary” of Rea Irvin’s perfect Talk heading (above) disappearing from The New Yorker (only to be replaced — if you can believe it! — by a redrawn version courtesy of a contemporary illustrator). Using the word “anniversary” seems like a bad fit…here at the Spill it’s head shaking time. The abandonment of Mr. Irvin’s work continues to haunt. Read more here.

Rea Irvin’s A-Z:

Rea Irvin (pictured above. Self portrait above from Meet the Artist) Born, San Francisco, 1881; died in the Virgin Islands,1972. Irvin was the cover artist for the New Yorker’s first issue, February 21, 1925. He was the magazine’s first art and only art supervisor (some refer to him as its first art editor) holding the position from 1925 until 1939 when James Geraghty assumed the title of art editor. Irvin then became art director and remained in that position until William Shawn officially succeeded Harold Ross in early 1952. Irvin’s last original work for the magazine was the magazine’s cover of July 12, 1958. The February 21, 1925 Eustace Tilley cover had been reproduced every year on the magazine’s anniversary until 1994, when R. Crumb’s Tilley-inspired cover appeared. Tilley has since reappeared, with other artists substituting from time-to-time. Number of New Yorker covers (not including the repeat appearances of the first cover every anniversary up to 1991): 179. Number of cartoons contributed: 261.

‘I just killed the man of sin’: Son of actor James Handy’s girlfriend charged with murder after fatal stabbing at LA home

6 June 2026 at 04:43

Malay Mail

LOS ANGELES, June 6 — Prosecutors filed murder charges yesterday against the man arrested in ‌the fatal stabbing of veteran Hollywood actor James Handy, a familiar face in dozens of films and television shows for half a century and the boyfriend of the suspect’s mother.

If ‌convicted, Michael Gledhill, 44, who was jailed as a suspect on Wednesday, faces up to 26 years in prison, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office said.

In a separate statement on Thursday, police said Gledhill was arrested after he flagged down police near the murder scene in the city’s Tarzana neighbourhood on Wednesday and told officers he was the one they were looking for.

Police said officers were dispatched in answer to a cryptic emergency-911 call from a man who told operators: “I am the son of man. I just ‌killed the man of sin.”

Responding officers found an 81-year-old man unconscious ⁠on the front lawn of his girlfriend’s ⁠home with a stab wound to the chest. He ⁠was pronounced dead shortly afterward ⁠at a nearby hospital, ⁠the Los Angeles Police Department said. Gledhill lived at his mother’s home, police said.

The victim was later identified as Handy, a prolific character actor whose ⁠movie credits included supporting roles in Brighton Beach Memoirs, Arachnophobia, Jumanji, Unbreakable and Logan.

His last big-screen appearance was playing an older bartender named Jimmy in a bar frequented by military fighter pilots in the 2022 Tom Cruise hit Top Gun: Maverick.

Handy also appeared in scores of television shows dating back to the 1970s, often portraying law ⁠enforcement characters or authority figures.

Police described the killing as an isolated incident but offered no possible motive for the slaying. Gledhill was slated to ⁠make his first court appearance yesterday, but it was not immediately known whether ⁠he had ⁠obtained legal representation.

The Handy killing marked the second high-profile celebrity stabbing death in Los Angeles in six months. In December, actor-director Rob Reiner and his wife, photographer-producer Michele Reiner, ‌were killed at their Brentwood mansion. Their younger son, Nick Reiner, was charged with two counts of first-degree murder for their slayings. — Reuters

 

No hydrochloric acid contamination detected in Sungai Cherating after tanker spill, says Pahang DOE

14 June 2026 at 01:32

Malay Mail

KUANTAN, June 14 — The Pahang Department of Environment (DOE) said no acid contamination had been detected in Sungai Cherating following a hydrochloric acid spill from an overturned tanker near the Cherating Bridge yesterday.

The department said the accident site was about 100 metres from the river.

Water samples taken at three locations within the surrounding mangrove area recorded a normal pH level of six.

“Meanwhile, pH monitoring using YSI equipment in Sungai Cherating recorded a reading of 9.4, indicating that no acid contamination had occurred in the river,” the DOE said in a statement today.

DOE enforcement officers were dispatched to the scene after receiving reports of the accident involving a tanker carrying hydrochloric acid at about 8.45am yesterday to assess any potential environmental impact.

Initial investigations found that the tanker, which had been transporting nearly 25 tonnes of hydrochloric acid from Pasir Gudang in Johor to Kemaman in Terengganu, had overturned.

“The Fire and Rescue Department successfully sealed the air vent at the rear of the tank to prevent a larger spill.

“An estimated 1,000 litres of the chemical was released and subsequently neutralised using soda ash, with no further leakage detected,” the statement said.

The DOE said any release of pollutants found to be in breach of the Environmental Quality Act 1974 would be thoroughly investigated, with enforcement action taken where necessary.

It added that regular monitoring would continue at the site and surrounding areas to ensure there were no delayed environmental effects and that clean-up measures were fully implemented.

I could be wrong about this, but I believe that this Arthur Getz cover, dated May 30, 1958, is the first Memorial Day themed New Yorker cover (I looked through every end of May issue from 1925 to 1958). The cover shows us  The Eternal Light Flagstaff located in Manhattan’s Madison Square Park, along its west side on Broadway.

The screen grab from Google’s street map shows the monument today (the base mostly obscured by a blossom tree. A few of the buildings Mr. Getz painted remain along Broadway.

Dedicated on Veteran’s Day in the mid 1920s, the monument, according to the New York Department of Records includes a:

star-shaped luminaire at the top of the pole [that] is intended to be lit at all times as an eternal tribute to those who paid the supreme sacrifice.

(You might say his career was a mirror image of George Price’s, who was one of the most prolific cartoonists, with over 1200 published, and one cover). According to the official Getz website, he was the most prolific of all New Yorker cover artists, having 213 appear during the fifty years he contributed to the magazine.

Henry Cavill's New 98-Minute Action Thriller Is Now Streaming After Box Office Disappointment

2 June 2026 at 16:29

Henry Cavill likes to stick to his lane when it comes to action movies at the moment, but whether he's playing a spy or a soldier, or a man with a suspicious mustache, he's become one of those stars who's become very happy and comfortable working under a specific director. So, you'd think that would make this film an easy win, and yet, here we are, three weeks after it opened in theaters, In the Grey is already on digital.
