Florida State Seminoles football is back on the practice field, out for day four of preseason camp after taking Saturday off.
On Friday, the Seminoles threw on shoulder pads for the first time, leading up to full pads on Tuesday before an August 27 matchup vs. the Duquesne Dukes.
Defensive end Jared Verse, who joined the Seminoles this offseason as the crown jewel of its transfer class, has thrived over the last few days of practice, excited by the competition and physicality he’s been able to contribute and witness.
He’s also been excited about the trash talk he’s been able to dish out — and receive.
“I feel like it kind of hypes up everybody, I kind of love it. I can get everybody into it. It kind of makes competition a lot more fun.”
You can catch Verse’s full interview discussing his love of trash talk, his impressions of his FSU teammates and other takeaways from so far in camp below:

President Theodore Roosevelt returned to California during GTC. Roosevelt, portrayed by scholar Clay Jenkinson, looked at the audience, and remarked that many had "shoulders like those of a champagne bottle" and suggested they get away from their desks and take a brisk walk up to Nevada City. Roosevelt -- who camped for four days in Yosemite with naturalist John Muir and woke up one morning covered with snow -- was an advocate of the strenuous life and an enemy of "ignoble ease."
"I was born in 1858," said Jenkinson in character, "so frail that physicians thought I would not live." His asthma was so bad his father drove a carriage at breakneck speed to try and force air into his young son's lungs. Later, a physician at Harvard College told him not to expect to live long, and urged him to adopt a sedentary life. But Roosevelt and his family rejected that advice, instead forcing in a regimen of exercise, hiking and horseback riding and slowly Roosevelt's body responded.
When his wife and mother both died on the same day, February 14, 1884, Roosevelt went west to the badlands of Dakota, and threw himself into hard work and long days herding cattle. He resolved to never speak unless spoken to, never stop work first, never go for food first, never call attention to himself, never turn away from any work, and never be the first to sleep. Work and solitude began to repair his spirit. Nevertheless, the ranch hands ridiculed his fancy clothes, meticulous grammar, and Tiffany-inscribed knife. "They called me the punkin' lily, storm windows and four eyes," he explained. Birth and wealth counted for nothing in the West, he discovered, what mattered was gumption and character.
Roosevelt showed character when he confronted a drunken Montana cowboy shooting up a bar and who "shot the only clock in Montana." Roosevelt stood up and hit the man in the chin, the man went down, and both revolvers discharged. The locals began to take this strange "Eastern Dude," with the thick glasses more seriously
"These cowboys," said Roosevelt, "were toothless, illiterate, with a roughness in grammar, they didn't go to the opera, knew no Latin, but they were men of gumption."
Roosevelt had no patience with "whiners and victims" His goal was to make sure that everybody had a chance, that there was a fair deal as much as possible, so that hard work paid off. That was part of the role of government, he said.
Roosevelt went into politics, and learned more lessons about life. "If you are marooned on a desert island, and need to build a boat, but only have a hatchet, screwdriver and chisel; you may want a saw, but you will never get it. Don't whine about the saw," said Roosevelt, "use the tools you have and build the boat." Similarly, said Roosevelt, use the men and women you have to work with, even if they are flawed.
Jenkinson gave the standing-room-only GTC audience lessons in life and politics from Roosevelt, closing his formal presentation with a quote from the "In the Arena" speech given by Roosevelt at the Sorbonne in 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

NEW YORK — A federal judge on Sunday ordered a stay in President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign’s lawsuit seeking to ban drop boxes and other changes to Pennsylvania’s mail-balloting procedures.
The Nov. 3 election promises to be the nation’s largest test of voting by mail and the two major parties are locked in numerous lawsuits that will shape how millions of Americans vote this autumn.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
The Republican president has repeatedly and without evidence said that an increase in mail-in ballots would lead to a surge in fraud, although Americans have long voted by mail.
There is perhaps no more consequential lawsuit than the one in Pennsylvania, which Trump won by less than 1 percentage point in 2016 and is considered essential to his re-election effort.
J. Nicholas Ranjan, U.S district judge for western Pennsylvania, said the federal case brought by the Trump campaign would not move forward until similar lawsuits in state courts are completed or unless they are delayed.
Justin Clark, Trump’s deputy campaign manager, said the judge’s decision recognized that the issue touched on both state and constitutional issues.
“The federal court is simply going to reserve its judgment on this in the hopes that the state court will resolve these serious issues and guarantee that every Pennsylvanian has their vote counted–once,” Clark said.

Lady chatterleys lover sex scene photo
Even today, we continue to find the obscene language and images found in Rochester’s poetry shocking.
Take, for example, his A Satyr on Charles II a critique of the monarch as a man governed by his penis: ‘Tis sure the sauciest prick that e'er did swive, The proudest, peremptoriest prick alive.
The answer lies in the recognition of Rochester’s poetry as literature rather than obscenity.
Just as with Lady Chatterley’s Lover, we need to read past the obscene language and images of the work to understand what Rochester is really saying. He strips man down to his barest drives and desires to see the animal lurking underneath.
And the use of obscene language is key to that project.
On this day in history, Judge Frederick Bryan of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled in favor of Grove Press and ordered the Post Office to lift all restrictions on sending copies of through the mail. 476, 1957) — a case involving a bookseller who sent erotic literature through the mail — that the First Amendment’s guarantees of free speech did not apply to obscenity.
This, in effect, marked the end of the Post Office’s authority — which, until then, it held absolutely — to declare a work of literature “obscene” or to impound copies of those works or prosecute their publishers. [As an aside, it should be noted that this was not the Supreme Court case memorable for the phrase regarding obscenity “I know it when I see it.” That case was decision. Brennan, claimed that the purpose of the First Amendment was “to assure unfettered interchange of ideas” and that “all ideas having even the slightest redeeming social importance — unorthodox ideas, controversial ideas, even ideas hateful to the prevailing climate of opinion — have the full protection of the guarantees.” But, Brennan went on, “implicit in the history of the First Amendment is the rejection of obscenity as utterly without redeeming social importance.” Rembar posed a question that Brennan apparently hadn’t considered: What if a book met the standards of obscenity yet was a novel of ideas that actually advocated sexual fulfillment in marriage, rather than sex without love, as well as inveighing against hypocrisy and the mechanization of industrial life.
Rochester strips away all sense of love and romance from his depicted sexual encounters. His images are those of the mechanics of sex, its failures, disappointments and disease.
Take his notorious poem, The Imperfect Enjoyment, a work that opens with a scene indicating the sexual promise to come: But whilst her busy hand would guide that part Which should convey my soul up to her heart, In liquid raptures I dissolve all o’er, Melt into sperm, and spend at every pore.

SAN BERNARDINO – A 42-year-old Ontario man will serve 30 days in jail for attempting to pay for sexual acts during an undercover prostitution sting officials said. Poshen Wu was convicted on Tuesday of the single count of Soliciting, Engaging or Agreeing to Engage in Prostitution by Providing Compensation.
Wu searched Backpage.com seeking out a woman for prostitution services, and contacted one offering the “full experience”. He told the woman that his name was “John” and arranged to meet for the 30-minute “full experience” at the cost of $100. The deputy district attorney on the case said that Wu went to the meeting place and attempted to kiss the undercover deputy, apparently attempting to get the full bang for his buck as far as time.
In addition to his sentence, Wu will also be on probation for 3 years.

Neatorama presents a guest post from actor, comedian, and voiceover artist Eddie Deezen. Visit Eddie at his website. This post was selected to commemorate Elvis Presley on the anniversary of his death, 35 years ago today.
It was the spring of 1968, and Elvis Presley was in the middle of filming another in the seemingly endless run of mediocre movies that had tarnished his career, his self-confidence, his fan base, and his morale.
Live a Little, Love a Little was typical grade-Z Elvis film fare. Nothing remarkable, special, or particularly notable about it. Probably the only good points of filming for Elvis were the relieved knowledge that it would be one of the last films he'd have to churn out and the happy company of his co-star, Celeste Yarnall, the actress he romanced in the film.
Elvis and Celeste became, according to her account, "instantaneous friends." Like almost every one of his attractiv female co-stars, Elvis and Celeste had a very close relationship. However, Celeste, unlike most of Elvis' women, will not reveal any intimate details about their relationship. "I am very private about our relationship and I want to keep it that way," she says, "But we just had a lot of love for each other and it was a very special time."
In early April, in the middle of their filming one day, Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated. Later, Elvis and Celeste watched the funeral of Dr. King together in his dressing room trailer during lunch. Elvis took it hard. One of his favorite recitations was King's "I Have a Dream" speech. King was shot in Memphis, a stone's throw from Elvis' home, Graceland.
In the dressing room, Elvis told Celeste the backstory of his own struggle -that he felt a tremendous brotherhood with the black community because he grew up poor and he knew what it was like to live in poverty. He was also proud that many blacks embraced him as one of their own.
"He sobbed in my arms like a baby," says Celeste. "He was just devastated and desperately would have liked to attend the funeral. We choked down our lunch and sang a little a cappella tribute of 'Amazing Grace.'"
"If I Can Dream" was a tribute song to Martin Luther King, Jr. written by Walter Earl Brown, notable for its direct quotations from Dr. King. Now that Elvis had wrapped shooting for Live a Little, Love a Little, he was recording songs for his upcoming Singer Television Special, to be broadcast on television that December. When the song was first presented to Elvis, the TV special's producer, Steve Binder, was worried and thought it would surely be rejected. He wanted to include it, but the show was ostensibly to be a Christmas special, and "If I Can Dream" was not a Christmas song.
Binder found Elvis and played it for him in his dressing room. "Let me hear it again," said Elvis. The song was played 7 or 8 times and Elvis finally said, "Okay, I'll do it."
On June 23rd, Elvis recorded "If I Can Dream" in several incredibly passionate takes. To Binder, his performance was so staggering as to seem almost like a religious experience. Out on the floor with a hand mike, Elvis fell to his knees. For a moment, he felt like he was back in church, singing the Gospel songs of his youth.
Not everyone was prepared for such a visceral performance: "The string players sat there with their mouths open. They had never seen anything like this." But the more astonishing performance came when the producers sent everyone home and Elvis re-recorded the vocals -in the dark.
Binder sat motionless, afraid to move as Elvis lost himself in the song. Once again, he fell to his knees. But this time, with the lights out, Elvis assumed a fetal position, writhing around on the cement floor. Then, after three more takes, all with the lights out, Elvis got up and walked into the control room.
Elvis sat in rapt attention as he asked Binder to play the song back to him. After listening to the song fifteen times, Elvis was finally satisfied and gave his O.K. Elvis was so affected by the song, he said, "I'll never sing another song I don't believe in. I'm never going to make another movie I don't believe in."
Sadly, Elvis' hope for the future was not to be. At the time, Elvis was extremely depressed about both his film and recording career.
"If I Can Dream" was shown at the close of Elvis' Singer Special (later to be known as the '68 comeback special) that December. It was the first time the song was heard by the general public. Later released as a single, it peaked on Billboard's Hot 100 at number 12 and sold over a million copies. It may well be the only gold record in music history that was recorded in the dark.

E-KTP for Transgender; Suara Kita Hopes for More Accessible Public Services
3 June 2021 10:33 WIB
TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - LGBT rights group Suara Kita Head Hartoyo said transgenders had so far found difficulties in accessing public services because they did not own identity cards or E-KTP. Thus, he appreciated the Directorate General of Population and Civil Registration for issuing a policy on identity cards for transgenders.
“ID card is a fundamental right for every citizen. Suara Kita really appreciates the breakthrough made by the DG in facilitating the recording and making of ID cards for trans women groups,” said Hartoyo in a statement, Thursday, June 3.
He explained that based on a study by the Indonesian Puzzle Community in Bandung in 2020, 84.2 percent of respondents had bad experiences and were hampered in accessing public services due to a lack of ID cards. It was also noted that most of the obstacles were caused by the discomfort in applying for an identity card.
Thus, Suara Kita approached the Director-General of Population and Civil Registration to provide the facility. Through the online data collection conducted by this group, it was recorded that 297 transgender women throughout the archipelago will be facilitated. Of the number, only 54 transgender people owned a citizenship identity number (NIK).
Hartono hoped his rights group could help facilitate all transgender women throughout the country to get their right to identity. Hartono and his team also planned to take a similar approach to the Health Care and Social Security Agency (BPJS Kesehatan) and the Health Ministry so that trans women could be registered as members and get the Covid-19 vaccine.

|Contact Your Senators Now!|
(July 10, 2014) American Legion National Commander Daniel M. Dellinger is calling on the Senate to ratify the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) before the month is out. Commander Dellinger is also strongly urging all Legionnaires and veteran advocates to contact their U.S. senators immediately to ask them to support ratification.
An international disability treaty inspired by U.S. leadership in recognizing the rights of people with disabilities, the CRPD creates a framework for legislation and policies around the world to improve the lives of all people with disabilities, including millions of disabled American veterans who travel abroad. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was the model for the CRPD, and the treaty echoes its values of independence and respect for persons with disabilities, as well as reasonable accommodations.
The U.S. Armed Forces stand for the importance of promoting human rights and dignity around the world, and in the power of the United States to be a leader in the fight for these ideals. Supporting the CRPD is in keeping with these ideals. By ratifying it, the U.S. would not only clearly demonstrate its commitment to protecting the rights of people with disabilities but would have the opportunity to participate in the discussions going on at the international level about how to best promote and protect those rights in practice.
Some have expressed misgivings about the treaty. However, The American Legion is confident these concerns can be addressed by the adoption of a set of treaty conditions called reservations, understandings and declarations. These protect U.S. sovereignty, ensure parental rights and recognize the treaty as a nondiscrimination instrument, similar to the landmark ADA. Furthermore, the CRPD has bipartisan support. More than 700 American organizations, including over 20 of the top veterans organizations, faith-based groups, civil rights organizations, disability groups, and business leaders like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have pledged their support to this treaty.
Please stand with Commander Dellinger by contacting your Senators now and ask them to pass CRPD now.

If you’re starting with thawed shrimp (remember to move them from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before), this recipe is incredibly easy. Even if your shrimp is frozen, they only take a few minutes under running water to thaw.
After that, toss the shrimp in salt, pepper, and olive oil, and roast in the oven. Dinner will be ready in minutes.
This fast, delicious weeknight meal generously feeds two.
Patience is one of Guy’s virtues, as is generosity. Throw in a sense of adventure in the kitchen, and you’ll find someone who makes great risotto. He made this risotto for Valentine’s Day and then again when we invited another couple over for dinner and ping pong. The combination of creamy rice, shrimp, peas, lemon zest, and pecorino cheese is hard to forget.

text: Ok, so on TradeMe.co.nz, a sight similar to eBay but for New Zealanders (and Aussies), this model kit popped up. I believe there has been one on TradeMe before which is the same except with a box and maybe more pieces, but it appears to be either a Victory Saber or Star Saber model kit. It's located here: Generation 1 Transformers 1989 for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Well, I've Googled for ages, I've search TFW2005, I've been on TFU, I've been on eBay, and I still haven't found out anything about it. So I need to know four things. First of all, which is it? Victory Saber (Star Saber and Victory Leo that combine) or Star Saber? It looks like It's Star Saber and Saber, not sure about the brain master unit etc. though. Second off, who made it? I don't have a clue which company made it, and don't know if it's official, so I'm unsure of the quality. Thirdly, for people who know exactly what it is, does it appear to have all the parts to build the model, or are the parts missing? And finally, is it worth picking up? I guess that'll really depend on the other answers, but I'd just really like to know exactly what it is, if it's complete, and if it's worth buying. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

We’ve gotten a very good glance at long-awaited upcoming system from Nintendo, the Nintendo Switch. During the reveal trailer, they seemingly announced (without officially announcing) multiple games, including a new Super Mario game, a new Mario Kart, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Remastered, and either a port or sequel to Splatoon, which is great and all.
But, now we get a real chance to speculate and try to figure out what games will come to the system. They gave us a list of Switch development partners, then proceeded to say it was only “some” of them. Based on that list, any of our choices in this article could be totally legit. This is our chance to get our hopes in first, before Nintendo dashes them into the gutter.
Let’s talk 4 first party games and 4 third-party games that I’d really love to see come to the Nintendo Switch, and how they could work using this new system!
This first (obvious) choice is one that we, admittedly, have a little cheat on. Game Freak has already stated that Pokemon would be coming to the NX (The name used for the Switch prior to the announcement). But, what kind of Pokemon game? Of course the 3DS is on the way out the door, if the Switch allows for portable gaming on the go, but the power behind this system. Could we finally expect the Pokemon MMO that we’ve always dreamed of? Would we get a real Pokemon Snap sequel? How about a follow up to Pokemon Colosseum or Stadium? Pokken Tournament 2, perhaps? Being on the go like this, could we get a Pokemon GO tie-in that could maybe tie to the Pokemon GO Plus band? I’d just be happy at a really well made standard Pokemon game with some enhanced multiplayer experience. The list could go on when it comes to Pokemon.
Animal Crossing focuses on a single player’s town. With the portability at hand, I could imagine a procedurally-generated town that means no two towns would be the same. Maybe bringing in the multiplayer aspect of the Switch could allow you to visit other players’ towns, a la The Sims. Or, we can maybe hope the Switch’s tablet function has an accelerometer and walking with it could pick up bells (The currency in game). Bringing Animal Crossing to the new system just would make sense, especially with the massive amount of Amiibos currently available.
Super Smash Bros.
Super Smash Bros. has made its way onto every major generation of Nintendo home console since the Nintendo 64. Not giving it a game this generation would be an atrocity to the genre and to the fans. The most recent edition of the game came to both the Wii U and the 3DS and could play near interchangeably, even going as far as to let you use your 3DS as a controller to play on the Wii U version. It would make sense that Nintendo would release a version of the game that could be played head to head, similar to the Battleship-like approach given in the trailer, or could be easy to pick up some Pro Controllers to play on your TV. Maybe it was just me, but the game was actually playable on the Wii U Tablet very well, so giving the option to play it that way is always an option as well.
Luigi’s Mansion is just my own personal pick here. It’s itching for another sequel and Luigi deserves a little more limelight. This one doesn’t necessarily need multiplayer, I could totally see Luigi team up with Toad or maybe even a new character in a co-op mode that would be unprecedented in the previous installments. As the last game was on the 3DS, it would make sense that it could be on both console or portable options as well, making it a perfect fit for the Nintendo Switch.
Red Dead Redemption 2
It’s totally coincidence that the Nintendo Switch was revealed the exact same day that the Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer came out, right? RIGHT? With the power that the Switch seems to offer, it would make sense that it could handle similar games that would surely be on the current generation systems. RDR2 would be our first choice, utilizing the “Take-Two Interactive” off the list of partners for this speculation. Given that Rockstar Games recently registered domains for the term “Read Dead Online”, giving this title the online approach would fit to the multiplayer setting that the Switch allows. Even if not, the game would work out very well on all of the current generation systems, as the game isn’t due out until Fall 2017 (long after the Switch is out and moving).
Resident Evil 7
Let’s utilize our “Capcom” option on the Switch Partner list. Resident Evil 7 is coming out January 24th, 2017, just a mere 2 months before the Nintendo Switch. A port of Resident Evil would make for a perfect launch title to show off the Switch’s capabilities as both a family friendly machine, and a hardcore gamer’s versatile rig.
Kingdom Hearts 3
The obvious one when I see “Square-Enix” on the list is Final Fantasy 15, or even the remake of Final Fantasy 7. That’s not the one I really would hope for. Nintendo DS and 3DS has been the home to several Kingdom Hearts titles in the past, so there’s history with the franchise on the portable options. Let’s get a full home and portable version of Kingdom Hearts 3 onto the Switch this time!
I get a little bit of a cop out for this one, as it’s obvious that indie games would come to the system. Nintendo has been very subservient to the indie community this past generation and several popular independent development titles found their way into the Nintendo e-Shop on both the Wii U and the 3DS. This is my officially transcribed hope that they stick with that new tradition, as it worked out very well this past time around.

Less than a week after announcing the acquisition of Four Peaks Brewing, Anheuser-Busch InBev is at it again.
According to a press release, the company will be purchasing London, England-based Camden Town Brewery so that it can “expand its operations, bringing more of its popular canned, bottled and kegged beer to more people.”
“Our growth has been phenomenal,” said Camden Town’s founder. “To keep up with the demand for our distinctive beers we’ve had to look at expanding our brewing capacity and team. AB InBev is going to be our strategic partner, helping us maintain the character and quality of our beers, while giving us access to the investment we need to drive Camden to being ever more successful at home and abroad.”
Camden Town was founded in 2010 by Cuppaidge, and now employees 95 people selling 12 million pints in over 1,000 locations in 2015. Earlier this year, the brewery raised £2,750,860, or $3,002,140.56 on crowd funding website Crowdcube in order to build a second brewery in London and expand operations.
“We have a passion for great beer,” said Iain Newell, European director of specialities and craft at AB InBev. “Camden Town is a creative business with a great range of brands that will complement our existing portfolio. We will support their ambitious plans for the future, using our expertise and global distribution network to help them get their great beer to more people.”
AB InBev has acquired six different craft breweries since 2011: Chicago, Ill.-based Goose Island Beer Co. in 2011, New York, N.Y.-based Blue Point Brewing and Bend, Ore.-based 10 Barrel Brewing in 2014, Seattle, Wash.-based Elysian Brewing Co. in 2014, Los Angeles, Calif.-based Golden Road Brewing in September and Tempe, Ariz.-based Four Peaks Brewing last week.
According to the brewery, the deal is expected to close by Jan. 7, 2016. Terms of the agreement are not being disclosed.

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) – Talib Zanna had 19 points and a career-high 21 rebounds to help Pittsburgh beat No. 15 North Carolina 80-75 in the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament quarterfinals Friday.
James Robinson also scored a career-best 19 points for the fifth-seeded Panthers (25-8), who used a dominating start to build a huge lead before having to hold off a late rally by the fourth-seeded Tar Heels (23-9).
Pittsburgh led by 20 points with 7:22 left before UNC’s frantic comeback behind Marcus Paige, who scored 20 of his 27 points after halftime before fouling out with 25.4 seconds left.
UNC got it to 78-75 on Nate Britt’s jumper with 11.4 seconds left but couldn’t complete the comeback. James Robinson knocked down two free throws to make it a two-possession game again right after Britt’s score, then Lamar Patterson rebounded a hurried 3-pointer by James Michael McAdoo with 4.3 seconds left to essentially seal it.

Some of the causes of Sacroiliac pain are as follows:
Sacroiliac belts provide compression around the hip inorder to prevent the SI joints from moving excessively. This belt is wrapped around the pelvis and can be tightened with the help of laces on the side or back of the brace.
Sacroiliac Belt helps alleviate pain, reduce inflammation and restore function. This device is designed to stabilize the pelvis and prevent excessive movement of the SI joint.
There is rearely any limitation to sacroiliac belts because the belt supports only the ligaments there is no risk of increasing muscle weakness in the lower back.
Sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction can cause lower back pain. It is also commonly known as sacroiliitis, SI joint inflammation, SI joint syndrome, and SI joint strain. This condition makes it hard for people to carry out daily activities, such as sitting, standing, walking, and even sleeping.

Time delays between the multiple images of strongly lensed Type Ia supernovae (gl\sneia) have the potential to deliver precise cosmological constraints, but the effects of microlensing on the measurement have not been studied in detail. Here we quantify the effect of microlensing on the glSN Ia yield of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) and the effect of microlensing on the precision and accuracy of time delays that can be extracted from LSST glSN Ia. Microlensing has a negligible effect on the LSST glSN Ia yield, but it can be increased by a factor of ∼2 to 930 systems using a novel photometric identification technique based on spectral template fitting. Crucially, the microlensing of glSN Ia is achromatic until 3 rest-frame weeks after the explosion, making the early-time color curves microlensing-insensitive time delay indicators. By fitting simulated flux and color observations of microlensed glSN Ia with their underlying, unlensed spectral templates, we forecast the distribution of absolute time delay error due to microlensing for LSST, which is unbiased at the sub-percent level and peaked at 1% for color curve observations in the achromatic phase, while for light curve observations it is comparable to state-of-the-art mass modeling uncertainties (4%). About 70% of LSST glSN Ia images should be discovered during the achromatic phase, indicating that microlensing time delay uncertainties can be minimized if prompt multicolor follow-up observations are obtained. Accounting for microlensing, the 1-2 day time delay on the recently discovered glSN Ia iPTF16geu can be measured to 40% precision, limiting its cosmological utility.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revised its data this week to reduce pediatric deaths from COVID-19 by nearly 24%.
On Tuesday, the agency was reporting on its COVID Data Tracker that 1,755 Americans under age 18 had died from the virus since the pandemic began in spring 2020. Now, it is reporting 1,341 deaths in that category.
** Correction with updated numbers. The CDC may have removed closer to 70k deaths. Difficult to tell exacts as prior data has been removed. pic.twitter.com/zqoH1Wa1q4
— Nicole Saphier, MD (@NBSaphierMD) March 17, 2022
The CDC said the number was revised March 15 due to a “coding logic error,” according to a footnote on the agency’s COVID Data Tracker. Pediatric death counts were not the only ones to be lowered — total deaths were reduced by roughly 70,000.
“An adjustment was made to COVID Data Tracker’s mortality data on March 14 involving the removal of 72,277 — including 416 pediatric deaths — deaths previously reported across 26 states because CDC’s algorithm was accidentally counting deaths that were not COVID-19-related,” Jasmine Reed, a spokesperson for the CDC, told the Washington Examiner. “Working with near real-time data in an emergency is critical to guide decision-making, but may also mean we often have incomplete information when data are first reported.”
According to the CDC’s weekly provisional data, only 921 children have died for reasons “involving COVID-19,” an even lower number than the official data tracker now presents. The provisional data reported by the CDC typically lags by some period of time. (RELATED: Top WHO Doctor Says Healthy Kids, Teens Shouldn’t Get Boosted Against COVID-19, Contradicting CDC)
Far fewer children have died during the pandemic than any other age group. Children under age five are the only group of Americans still ineligible for vaccination against the virus, but children make up less than 0.1% percent of total COVID-19 deaths, according to CDC data. The mortality rate for minors, even those who are unvaccinated, remains lower than for vaccinated older adults.
The CDC has encountered other issues with data reporting before. The agency was criticized in February after The New York Times reported that a large portion of the data being collected by the agency regarding COVID-19 was not being made available to the public. Earlier this year, Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted that hospitalization data for kids could also be misleading, as many of the children hospitalized with COVID-19 were there for reasons other than the virus.

The custom foam insert protects your cutters from incidental damage and the Shaper Micro-Systainer makes it easy to always know what to reach for during bit change operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this router bit compatible with Origin?
Yes, this bit will fit the ¼” collet that ships with Origin.
How can I maintain my cutters?
Resin, sap, and adhesives will build up on your cutter edge over time. This generates more friction on your cutter and accelerates edge degradation. Keep your cutters clean with a small brass brush, citrus cleaner and a rag.
What is the maximum cutting depth of this bit?
The ¼” X ¾” Up-Spiral Ball Nose Router Bit can cut to a maximum depth of .75”.
How deep can I cut in a single pass?
As a general rule of thumb for cutting wood, it’s best to never cut deeper than the diameter of the bit in a single pass. So for a ¼” bit, you should not cut deeper than ¼” in a single pass. Because every material is different, it’s best to perform test cuts to find the ideal pass depth and cut specs when working with a new material.

SUSAN SEIDELMAN | USA | 1982 | 89 MIN | R | ENGLISH
Susan Seidelman’s raucous debut finds a grifter submerged in the NYC punk scene of the 1970s not trying to make friends, but become (in)famous as she dreams of sunny Los Angeles.
Cast: Susan Berman, Brad Rijn, Richard Hell, Nada Despotovich
Part of the Philadelphia Film Society’s Movie Club series.
Movie Club is a new monthly film series designed around the needs of film enthusiasts and students of cinema to be a forum for discussions of film analysis, aesthetics, history, and production. We kick off MOVIE CLUB with an ongoing showcase of first films by groundbreaking filmmakers from around the world and across film history. Each film will feature an introduction, robust post-viewing discussion, and a packet of suggested additional viewing, listening, and reading.


Billed as not quite country, not quite rock, and not quite lounge, but uniquely Lee Hazlewood.
I'll go with that, for this is one artist who - although wrote classic pop standards for people like Nancy Sinatra and Rock'n'roll legend Duane Eddy - when it came to his own recording style Mr Hazlewood followed no one. His whole style seems to stem from the Dean Martin school of "do we have to do this", but what it does do is give a sixties stylised sound which in todays manufactured tv pop culture, is a refreshing break. Containing all his single and album releases from the MGM years 1965-67, the title track "These boots are made for walking" instead of rivaling Nancy's version, he's complemented it with a typical Lee Hazlewood laid back references to the Nancy hit. Another very infecious track is "My baby cried all night long" with Lee's gravel voice meandering over a very polished arrangement, I found my self repeatedly going back for another listen.
Possibly to cash in on the success of himself and Nancy Sinatra, he did record duets with a singer called Suzi Jane Hokum. Included on this set is the song "Summer Wine" which he did record with Nancy, but the gem here is "Suzi Jane is back in town" which sounds like something right out of a sixties "B" western.
For the sixties collectors the cd contains the complete album "Something Special" which has become very rare indeed, to someone who wants to discover different sounds and likes the laid back styles of people who had their finger on the button, both in the recording studio and behind the microphone in the height of the swinging sixties, this cd is well worth the investment.

International PEN, Canberra 1999
Darkening skies and cold were perhaps reminiscent last Sunday morning of a Russia where "the Tsar exiled both Pushkin and Dostoyevsky, Osip Mandelstam died in a camp in eastern Siberia after satirising 'the Georgian mountaineer' and his cockroach moustaches" and in 1998 the editor of Sovietskaya Kalmykia Segodnya, Larisa Yudina, and the human rights advocate and Parliamentarian, Galina Starovoitova, were both killed in apparently politically motivated attacks.
At a ceremony in Lennox Gardens, conducted by International PEN, to plant a tree to commemorate these two women's deaths, Peter Fuller noted that "Russia has changed since Soviet times, but life is no less perilous in the new Russia, which has gone from being a police state to being a lawless state."
ACT Chief Minister Kate Carnell spoke movingly of the need for this memorial to remind us that it is easy in Australia to take our freedom of speech for granted. Larisa Yudina was the co-chairperson of the local branch of the pro-reform Yabloko party in Kalmykia and was investigating reports of corrupt business practices by regional officials when on June 8 1998 she was found dead with multiple knife wounds and a fractured skull. Amnesty International has called on Russian authorities to take urgent measures to stop the persecution of journalists and government opponents in the Republic of Kalmykia and to bring to justice those responsible for the murder of Larisa Yudina.
The murder of Galina Starovoitova received wide publicity in the western news media when on November 20 1998 two gunmen shot her as she walked up the steps to her apartment, also seriously wounding her press secretary, and casually left their weapons behind in perhaps the most brazen political assassination in the bloody 7-year history of the new Russia.
International PEN, founded in London in 1921, brings together poets, novelists, essayists, historians, critics, translators, editors, journalists, theatre and screenwriters "who share a common concern for the craft and art of writing and who are committed to freedom of expression through the written word". Since November 15 1998 PEN has recorded the murder of 21 writers in Iran, Sierra Leone, Turkey, Serbia, Nigeria, Kosovo, Angola, Sri Lanka, Colombia, Ivory Coast and East Timor.
Murder is the "ultimate form of censorship", but PEN's records show another 17 writers who since 1991 are still detained, exiled or have 'disappeared' in Burma, Guatemala, Slovenia, Syria, Bangladesh, Turkey, Ecuador, Russia, Mexico, Egypt, Peru, Cuba and Ethiopia.
The rain held off for the brief memorial ceremony, but fell steadily for the rest of the day.

Bottom Lines are our most current take on a race.
When Republican U.S. Sen. Olympia Snowe announced in early 2012 that she would not run for re-election, the best-known candidate to enter the field was former Gov. Angus King, who served two terms as an independent and opted to keep that label in the Senate race. He faced Democrat Cynthia Dill, who got no support from her party, and Republican Charles Summers in the general election. King took 53 percent of the vote to 31 percent for Summers and 13 percent for Dill. This cycle, King will get a less challenging contest than he did six years ago. The filing deadline closed March 15, producing a presumptive Democratic nominee in teacher Zak Ringelstein and a two-way GOP primary between state Sen. Eric Brakey and financial planner Max Linn. (At this writing, Brakey is challenging Linn’s eligibility). None of these candidates poses a serious threat to King. As such, the race is now rated as Solid Independent.
When Congress reconvened in early January, former Lt. Gov. Tina Smith was sworn in to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Democratic U.S. Sen. Al Franken. She will have to run in a special election in November. The seat will also be up for a full term in 2020. Smith, 59, has a background in marketing. From 2006 until 2010, she was chief of staff to Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak. She managed his unsuccessful campaign for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination in 2010. She then joined Dayton’s gubernatorial campaign as a senior adviser. He appointed Smith to be his chief of staff in the Governor’s office. When his Lieutenant Governor said that she would not be on the ticket in his bid for a second term, Dayton named Smith as his running mate. It is unlikely that Smith will get serious opposition in the primary. At this point, there are two announced Republican candidates: dental technician Bob Anderson and state Sen. Karin Housley. Housley is the clear frontrunner. While she is not well known yet, her last name is, at least among the state’s many hockey fans. She is married to Phil Housley, the coach of the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres and a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame. Housley gets good reviews from those who have met with her and has potential as a candidate, and Smith is still learning the ropes in the Senate and getting acquainted with voters in her new role, but the race isn’t a Toss Up at this point. It moves to the Lean Democratic column, and it’s up to Republicans to make it more competitive.

A Message for You:
Have you noticed that everything we define as „reality“ has its vibration? Every structure of matter, every cell, every atom has a frequency of its own. The more similar the frequencies are, the more resonance (attraction) is produced, to which matter reacts and by which matter is getting shaped - including our bodily structures!
In fact, this is also the major law governing the dimension of frequencies: the LAW of RESONANCE (also called Phased Synchronization) showing that two waves resonate when their frequencies are close to each other leading to enhanced interaction between the waves.
On the other hand, you may have noticed how you - just as any other human being - react to frequencies such as sound & music. They can initiate new levels of perceptions and instantly change your emotional state, your degree of stress, vigilance, or relaxation. In fact, you even use music in oder to deepen emotional states or shift moods.
This is how intense the impact of frequencies is.
It is our high RECEPTIVITY TO FREQUENCIES and its instant transforming power that made out of music one key evolutionary driver for the humankind. Knowing this, music therapist and researchers have proven that certain practices of interacting through sound & music - especially those involving active participation - can grow more safety, flexibility, and resilience in our complex body-mind-soul system, increasing the self-trust level and the ability to connect to others.
Can you now imagine the high level of transformation for a living being that could consciously transform its destructive vibrating patterns into vibrations of healthy growth? This CONSCIOUS CALIBRATION is the core approach in my therapeutical & transforming processes.
After a long practice in interdisciplinary teams in various areas of health care (in both clinical and ambulant environments), supporting my clients through therapy and teachings on their self-healing issues, I can tell you that everyone can learn to influence/create/re-calibrate, and maintain certain levels of frequencies!
This immense gift we carry in ourselves as human beings
ist available to each of us so it can be used in your service:
WHAT / WHEN / HOW to focus.
Stay with me if you want to benefit from this formula and become
the genuine deliberate creator of your own frequencies
in a meaningful & joyful life that you diserve by:
● shifting the frequencies of stress, chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, conflict and even addictions into higher frequencies of healthy growth such as trust, gratitude or love (basically raising your vibration)
● transforming your interpersonal relationships in true oases of connection and joy
● attracting cooperative components for your personal or professional development
● entering & maintaining with ease in flow states and manifesting intentionally
Now, you may ask me, how would this work?
Well, the way we produce frequencies is through our thoughts & emotions. They shift or maintain the structures and functions in our bodies.
Yet, just having this information will not greatly affect your transformation.
It is a great joy for me to show you how to successfully implement a significant frequency shift that will lead to a positive change of your vibrational patterns, just check the section MENTORING & THERAPY !

After it was announced that This Is Us will end after 6 seasons, the fans have been shaken. Not only fans, but now the cast of the show is also expressing their distress over the upsetting news. If you didn’t know, the Pearson family will wrap up their story next year as NBC’s This Is Us comes to an end with season 6. NBC renewed the tearjerker for a fifth and sixth season in 2019, and the cast and crew have stated many times that season 6 would likely be the end of the road for Jack and Rebecca’s family.
After the news, the show’s lead Mandy Moore took to Instagram and said: “Officially official. One season left of my favourite job. You can bet we will be soaking in every single moment,” the actress, 37, wrote on her Instagram. On her Instagram Story, she reminded fans that the show isn’t done yet: “I’m already VERY emotional about my favourite job coming to an end. BUT … We have a whole season to wrap things up the way it was always intended.”
Susan Kelechi Watson who essays the role of Randall’s wife retweeted the announcement of the show ending and hyped up the final episodes. “What a ride it’s been … what an incredible season to come,” Watson, 39, wrote with three red heart emojis.
Justin Hartley, who famously plays Hollywood superstar Kevin in the show spoke to Yahoo Finance, and while Hartley didn’t give away much about his reaction, he did say: “When you can write something that’s that authentic or real or pure, I think people see themselves in it and they relate to the characters,” the actor, 44, explained.

In 2019, humanity discovered 81 new organisms, each with their own unique habitat, traits, and abilities. And—despite the controversy—on Nov. 15 people around the world were encouraged to, once again, catch them all on a Nintendo gaming system. Scientists also identified 412 new species on Earth.
Habitats endangered by global warming necessitate documenting life before it may very well disappear. With three quarters of the world’s environment already altered by humans, a staggering one million plant and animal species risk extinction.
A globalized economy hasn’t spared Pokémon either. Corsola, coral-like in appearance, has been bleached—presumably by the industrial Galar region’s acidification of the ocean waters. “Sudden climate change wiped out this ancient kind of Corsola,” reads the Pokédex entry (the veritable Encyclopedia Britannica of the Poké-world). It’s no longer a water/rock-type fighter, but a ghost-type of its former self.
An Anthropocene extinction event is no laughing matter, of course. With much of the world’s biodiversity threatened, “we are losing species faster than we can discover them,” says Tim Littlewood, executive director of science at the Natural History Museum. Similarly, fans of Pokémon protested the latest installment of series for its failure to include the full cast of 890 capture-able characters (currently, you are restricted to a paltry 400). Their protest, nicknamed “Dexit,” urged audiences to abstain from buying the latest Pokémon Sword and Shield game for lack of a diverse Pokédex.
With the new entrants to our digital and physical environs, let us see if you can guess if these critters are a Pokémon or newly discovered species. Let the adventure begin:
