Comedian Jay Leno's Tonight Show exit

By

The comedian Jay Leno became tearful and choked up Thursday as he concluded what he called the “greatest 22 years of my life.I am the luckiest guy in the world. This is tricky,” said the emotional Leno, stepping down for the second and presumably last time as host of TV's venerable late-night program. Jimmy Fallon takes over Tonight in New York on Feb. 17.

It was a tender finish to a farewell show that was mostly aiming for laughs, with traditional monologue jokes, clips from old shows and a wild assortment of celebrities helping to see Leno off.
Jay Leno

Leno first departure came in 2009, when he was briefly replaced by Conan O'Brien but reclaimed the show after a messy transition and O'Brien's lacklustre ratings. In '09, he was moving to a prime-time show on NBC. This time he's out the door, and has said he'll focus on comedy clubs and his beloved car collection.

Looking sharp in a black suit and bright blue tie, Leno was greeted by an ovation from the VIP audience. The typically self-contained comic betrayed a bit of nervousness, stumbling over a few lines in his monologue.

Jay Leno's top targets


For Jay Leno, Bill Clinton was the comic gift who kept giving. By one exhaustive count, the outgoing Tonight show host made 4,607 jokes at the former president's expense during his time on the program.
The Center for Media and Public Affairs catalogued nearly 44,000 jokes Leno made about political figures and celebrities at Tonight through Jan. 24.
His first Clinton joke came on May 25, 1992, shortly after taking over from Johnny Carson and when Clinton was still a presidential candidate.
“Clinton said that he's troubled by the amount of sex on television,” Leno said. "He says that where he's from sex is a deeply personal thing between a candidate and his campaign volunteers.” Clinton was subject of more than a thousand jokes ahead of the runner-up, George W. Bush. His top 10 targets for jokes were:


Bill Clinton: 4,607 jokes.



George W. Bush:3,239 jokes.



Al Gore: 1,026 jokes.



Barack Obama: 1,011 jokes.



Hillary Clinton: 939 jokes.



O.J. Simpson: 795 jokes.



Dick Cheney: 673 jokes.



Michael Jackson: 505 jokes.



Monica Lewinsky: 454 jokes.



Bob Dole: 452 jokes.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
