Mork & Mindy source was taken from a sci-fi-based American sitcom broadcast from 1978 until 1982 on the ABC. The first episode was broadcast on September 14, 1978. The series starred Robin McLaurin Williams as Mork, an alien who came to Earth -- in a large egg-shaped space ship -- from the planet Ork, and Pam Dawber as Mindy McConnell, his human comedic foil and eventual love interest for Robin Williams' character.
Williams was famous for films such as Good Morning Vietnam and won an Oscar for his role in Good Will Hunting. At 11:45 a.m. PDT on August 11, 2014, Williams was discovered unresponsive by his personal assistant at his home in Paradise Cay near Tiburon, California. Police and firefighters responded to a 9-1-1 emergency call; Williams was pronounced dead shortly afterwards. It was reported that Williams had apparently hanged himself with a belt and died due to asphyxiation. In the past Williams had talked, and even joked, about his struggles with alcohol and drugs. He had recently returned to a rehabilitation centre to "fine-tune" his sobriety, the Los Angeles Times reported in July.
President Barack Obama has led tributes to US actor and comedian Robin Williams, in an apparent suicide. President Obama was one of many offering condolences to the actor's family saying: "Williams arrived in our lives as an alien - but he ended up touching every element of the human spirit. "He made us laugh. He made us cry. He gave his immeasurable talent freely and generously to those who needed it most - from our troops stationed abroad to the marginalized on our own streets."
In a statement, Williams' wife, Susan Schneider, said she was "utterly heartbroken". "This morning, I lost my husband and my best friend, while the world lost one of its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings. I am utterly heartbroken," she said. "On behalf of Robin's family, we are asking for privacy during our time of profound grief. As he is remembered, it is our hope the focus will not be on Robin's death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions."
 
ORK: This is a round, uniface “1 Grebble” piece made of cardboard. The printed side is a glossy, trompe l'oeil depiction of how a metallic Orkan coin might appear. I acquired it from Erik Victor McCrea.
