♫ Please Mr. Postman ♫
Tonight I’m taking you back … waaaayyyyy back some 62 years to a song that would become Motown’s first #1 hit. A few nights ago, Pete commented on a post and included a clip from a song by the Marvelettes … wow, that brought back memories! Today’s song is the first ever recorded by the Marvelettes and the only #1 hit they ever had. There is some interesting background to the song, as told by…

Authorities have released an image of the simulated weapon officials say NYPD cops encountered a robbery suspect holding when they stormed a T-Mobile store in Queens this week, discharging 42 rounds in 11 seconds.
The picture released Thursday shows an item that from any distance could appear to be a real gun; it is black and about the same size with a ribbed grip. The barrel says Colt 1911 TARGET, a quick Google search for which indicates the product is available for online purchase on sites like Amazon and Walmart.

It's what NYPD Det. Brian Simonsen, 42, and his sergeant, Matthew Gorman, saw the suspect, 27-year-old Christopher Ransom, holding when they responded to a 911 call about a masked man with a gun at the phone store in Richmond Hill around dinnertime on Tuesday, officials have said. The two officers were working on an unrelated case in the area, but responded since it was nearby.
Also responding: six uniformed NYPD officers, authorities said. NYPD service members fired a total of 42 rounds in 11 seconds at the scene. Simonsen, a married 19-year NYPD veteran, was hit once in the chest. He later died. Gorman was hit once in the leg; he remained hospitalized early Thursday but was stable.
8 cops show up, start random firing at a black dude with a toy gun and shoot each other. now he's held responsible for the death and injuries.
The suspect, a 27-year-old man with an extensive criminal record, was armed with an imitation firearm, O’Neill said. He was wounded and is hospitalized in stable condition.
“Make no mistake about it, friendly fire aside, it is because of the actions of the suspect that Det. Simonsen is dead,” O’Neill said.
I think maybe its the fault of the people shooting at their co-workers that the co-worker is shot. but I'm not a cop, I don't have the advanced training in murdering people so what do I know.

In 1967 the Daily Telegraph, no less, produced a special on ‘the New Culture of Beat City.’ The prince of it all, perhaps, was a roly-poly poet and painter named Adrian Henri. With his fellow poets Roger McGough and Brian Patten he was responsible for a Penguin paperback, The Mersey Sound, which became the best-selling poetry collection of all time. And, this being Liverpool, Roger McGough found time to be in a chart-topping pop group, the Scaffold, as well. Once again Liverpool was not a provincial outpost but a creative hub which attracted progressive thinkers from far and wide. Henri would play host to the American beat poet Allen Ginsberg - who was, in his heart, something of a Beatle groupie and was moved to declare, ‘Liverpool is at the present moment the centre of the consciousness of the human universe.’ One day, the obscure performance artist Yoko Ono materialised, as Spencer Leigh recalls: ‘I am very proud of the fact that I touched Yoko Ono before John Lennon did. She came here in 1966 to the Bluecoat Chambers and had a “happening”. I had never been to a happening before, but it sounded very exciting and mysterious and avant garde so I went along. She invited members of the audience to wrap her up in bandages, so that is why I touched her before John Lennon did. I was doing her feet very delicately while Adrian Henri was doing the top half. She was covered in all these bandages and I remember John Gorman of the Scaffold shouting out, “You’re wanted on the phone!” ‘You could really see the influence she would have on John Lennon’s work. She had the black bags on stage and she invited people to come up on stage and take their clothes off inside the bag. About eight people did. It was an entertaining evening which went on for about two hours. Part of it was just watching her eat a tuna hsh sandwich. At the end of the happening she put a vase on the table and her husband Tony Cox smashed it and invited people to come up and take a piece. So I did and Yoko Ono said, “I want us all to meet in ten years’ time and piece this together.” I’ve never met her since.’
(Liverpool - Wondrous Place by Paul Du Noyer, 2002)
Part (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), (VI), (VII), (VIII), (IX), (X), (XI), (XII), (XIII), (XIV), (XV), (XVI), (XVII), (XVIII), (XIX), (XX), (XXI), (XXII)
Mike McCartney:…I knew Yoko before John, she came to Liverpool with her husband and some American bloke. Q: Oh, that’s interesting… Mike McCartney: Yes, she was in the Bluecoat [Chambers], we went to see her in the Bluecoat in Liverpool because we’d heard about this Japanese artist. Q: He was putting on an exhibition or something? Mike McCartney: She did these wonderful exhibitions. In fact, we got thrown out of one of them because we were satirists… Q: You weren’t taking it that seriously then? Mike McCartney: We didn’t… Yoko, I’m sorry, now! I don’t know whether you remember this, but she did this thing where she would get people on the stage – and thank god she didn’t ask us to get up – and she would wrap them in bandages. You know, what I mean? She’s taking it so seriously, and we’re scouting you know. Then, “any suggestions from the audience” and there’s these people wrapped up in bandages and John ‘Tiswas’ Gornman did a ‘mummy’ joke. And, we were thrown out – “you’re not taking this seriously”.
(Mike McCartney talks to SDE about the reissue of his 1974 album ‘McGear’, September 2019, interview with Paul Sinclair)

Sunshine Sachs must've called in a LOT of favors to get so many famous names on board the Archetypes Podcast and the 40x40 project. Vanity projects that went... nowhere.
Without Sunshine Sachs, IMO it's highly unlikely that M will ever be able to reach the same level of celebrity access on her own.

Lyrics:
Can't keep my hands to myself
Think I'll dust 'em off, put 'em back up on the shelf
In case my little baby girl is in need
Am I coming out of left field?
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I been feeling it since 1966, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Got another mouth to feed
Leave her with a baby sitter, mama, call the grave digger
Gone with the fallen leaves
Am I coming out of left field?
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I been feeling it since 1966, now
Might've had your fill, but you feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
We could fight a war for peace
(Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now)
Give in to that easy living
Goodbye to my hopes and dreams
Stop flipping for my enemies
We could wait until the walls come down
(Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now)
It's time to give a little to the
Kids in the middle, but oh 'til it falls
Won't bother me
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming back?
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, yeah
Your love is an abyss for my heart to eclipse, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Songwriter:
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I've been feeling it since 1966, now

Doing this cause I’m bored
youtube
So I was rewatching some older videos of @sytokun (do check out and support the Switchback channel and the stuff SYTO makes btw) and this one got me thinking.
How would I fancast a live action RWBY?
Of course some choices in this video I really can’t think of any better choices.
Oobleck - David Tennant
Port - Brian Blessed
Qrow - Robert Patterson or Johnny Depp
Torchwick - Domnhall Gleeson
Fennic and Corsac - Rami Malek and Oscar Isaac
Jaune - Will Porter (or Cameron Monaghan, I’ll come back to this later)
Oscar - Justice Smith
Penny - Sophia Lillis
Tyrian - Burn Gorman
I’ll get back to my personal reasonings on these but I do want to start with our main four. Also like, I am not gonna get these perfect but I’m gonna try to at least stay consistent with look, ages, and acting range.
Ruby - Camren Bicondova. Now I know that she doesn’t really act anymore but she just strikes me as Ruby. I’m kinda trying to stay in the 20s-30s range for this and idk have it be like set after canon or something so the ages don’t feel too off but that’s beside the point. She’s most well known for her role as Catwoman in Gotham, and I really think she can have that young and playful but also serious when the moment calls for it vibe.
My other choice for Ruby would be Emma Myers. Her energy in Wednesday as Enid just felt Ruby to me? Idk how to explain it. Short hair, vibrant energy, but can get down to business when the moment calls for it.
Weiss - Anya Taylor-Joy. Having been in The Menu, The Queen’s Gambit, Last Night In Soho, The New Mutants, and as Princess Peach in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, she really has a wide range in her acting. Being snarky but also somber is certainly in her range. I really thing that she also bounces off her costars really well.
Blake - Zendaya. Okay stick with me here, MJ from the Spider-Man “Home” Trilogy is Blake. That quiet and reserved but also snarky and quick witted energy. Idk it just feels like it fits so well. Also I don’t want this fan casting to be more pale than Weiss with sun lotion on so yeah.
Yang - I’m actually gonna take this one from the SYTO fancast, Leah Lewis. She fits into the age range of the other girls, she has that Yang energy of being a bit of a party girl, and most importantly, is that she’s Chinese which is already doing more than the actually show for proper Chinese rep. Lol. Lmao even.
But uh yeah, I think I’m gonna leave it at that for now.
I will come back to this and maybe tackle JNPR and actually explain the choices at the top and also maybe do Ozpin, Glynda, and Ironwood.

The 6B07 Newsletter (Issue 5, 2024-11-10)
Leaf Collection
Go outside and rake your leaves right now – DPW says they’ll be collecting leaves for our neighborhood as early as Monday. (Details at https://dpw.dc.gov/leaf)
ANC Commissioners Elected
My sincere thanks to the over 1,000 of you who marked my name on your ballot. Across the rest of 6B, David Sobelsohn, Jerry Sroufe, and Edward Ryder are my fellow re-elected Commissioners, while Tyler Wolanin, Anna Krebs, Sam Pastore, and Karen Hughes are the new incoming commissioners. Finally, we ended up with two write-ins contesting 6B04. I look forward to working with whichever one, Matt Miller or Brian Gorman, ends up on top when the Board of Elections counts the write-ins.
Watkins Playground Repairs on Schedule
DC Parks & Rec confirmed last week that they will be spending the money Charles Allen earmarked to upgrade the playground and basketball court at Watkins Elementary. They’re still taking community input, so please email [email protected] with the subject header “Watkins Playground” if you have ideas. I’m delighted to hear that DC Parks & Rec is already meeting with classes of Watkins students to get their input on the playground. They’re also going to check the entire fence to make sure we don’t have any other weak sections, and adjust the lighting so that it lights the field and the sidewalks, and not the neighbors’ bedrooms like it sometimes does. DC Parks & Rec also confirmed that Monumental Sports (AKA the Wizards and Capitals) has committed in writing to using their own funds to upgrade the roller-hockey rink simultaneously (details are at https://dgs.dc.gov/page/watkins-playground-and-park-improvements).
Trees
The DC Dept of Energy & Environment is launching another round of tree-planting. If you’d like a tree on your private property, see https://doee.dc.gov/riversmart for details. If there’s a spot on public property (including the grass strip between the sidewalk and the street) where you’d like to see a tree, go to 311.dc.gov, select "Grass, Park, Recreation & Trees," and you should get a quick response.
14/D/Kentucky
Good news: DDOT finally came back and fixed the sidewalks, and should be 100% done in a few days. And DC Public Works has now assured me that removing that giant bag of dead plants has been “escalated” to the “Prowl Team” by the “Associate Administrator.” Here’s hoping that the saga of our messy intersection is about to reach a satisfying ending.
ANC Meeting on Tuesday
Our next major ANC meeting is Tuesday, 7-10 p.m., at both 700 Pennsylvania Ave SE and online via Zoom. (Login info and full agenda are at https://anc6b.org/). In addition to the usual topics, we’ll meet the new community contact for DPW Sanitation, hear a presentation on Brent Elementary’s modernization, and discuss a DC Council bill that could make it easier to recycle bottles in DC.
Thanks for reading, and if you have any questions or opinions to share on any local topics, please drop me a line!
Vince Mareino, ANC Rep for 6B07

Biden caters to 'far-left' dark money groups with Supreme Court 'gimmick,' critics say
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/4696a483ddf1243625ae6d92868b8961/4644175ede7c0c8e-d6/s540x810/82792d1b9205c8b2355749ec14adef2d6421f406.jpg)

President Biden’s push to impose radical changes to the Supreme Court caters to the left-wing base of the Democrat party from an administration that was once billed as a "moderate," critics argue.
On Monday, Biden and Vice President Harris, who is now running at the top of the presidential ticket for Democrats in November, backed drastic measures for Congress to adopt, including term limits, ethics rules and a constitutional amendment to limit presidential immunity.
Biden, in an op-ed published in the Washington Post, said he has "great respect for our institutions and separation of powers" but "what is happening now is not normal, and it undermines the public’s confidence in the court’s decisions, including those impacting personal freedoms. We now stand in a breach."
The move marks a nearly 180-degree pivot for Biden, who had generally bucked plans even from within his own party to make such changes to the high court.

During the early years of his political career in the Senate, Biden called President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s plans to place term limits on older justices and packing the court "a bonehead idea." Packing the court, or court packing, is a term for increasing the number of justices on a court.
On the campaign trail in 2020, he resisted calls to expand the size of the court, saying that it would undermine its credibility.
With Monday’s announcement, Biden hasn’t said he wants to pack the court. But on his way out the Oval Office door, he’s endorsing plans from the most radical wing of his party.
"The far-left calls to destroy the Supreme Court were answered first by a candidate desperate to save his failing campaign," said Carrie Severino, president of Judicial Crisis Network.

"Now they will be championed by a candidate who needs to cater to dark money groups in the Arabella Advisors network like Demand Justice, Fix the Court and a host of other pop-up groups funded by liberal billionaires," she added.
Arabella Advisors is a dark money fund that feeds various left-wing causes. Notably, Harris’ communications director, Brian Fallon, is the former head of Demand Justice, which is an Arabella-funded group that advocates for court packing.
Fix the Court, another Arabella-connected group, pushes for term limits for Justices.
"[Biden is] trying to gin up his base with this gimmick," said GOP strategist Matt Gorman.
"The idea that Joe Biden would advocate for term limits is laughable. The left can’t stand that they don’t control the court, so they’ll do whatever they can to take it by legislative force," he said.
The ideological swing of the high court shifted when former President Trump appointed Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett. The conservative block is certainly not always in a lockstep vote, but Democrats in Congress and in the White House have nevertheless claimed that about the Republican-appointed majority.
"President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris want to end-run the Constitution and destroy the Supreme Court because they can't control it," said Severino.
"Biden and Harris are declaring war on the separation of powers with this announcement," she added.
The Harris campaign did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
White House spokesperson Andrew Bates responded, "As he stands up for the rule of law and the integrity of the Supreme Court, President Biden is grateful for the support these proposals are receiving from bipartisan legal experts, members of Congress, and large majorities of the American people.
'DANGEROUS' DEMOCRAT JUDICIAL ETHICS BILL WOULD ALLOW ANY 'JACKALOON' TO DEMAND A RECUSAL, SEN. KENNEDY SAYS
"Now, congressional Republicans have a choice to make: will they safeguard conflicts of interests on our nation’s highest court and help presidents remain above the law, or will they side with Joe Biden, conservative former judges, and their own constituents to protect principals that should override any partisanship?" said Bates.
Notably, the Supreme Court last year adopted a new code of conduct after months of scrutiny from Democrats in Congress.
"For the most part, these rules and principles are not new: The Court has long had the equivalent of common law ethics rules, that is, a body of rules derived from a variety of sources, including statutory provisions, the code that applies to other members of the federal judiciary, ethics advisory opinions issued by the Judicial Conference Committee on Codes of Conduct, and historic practice," a statement signed by all the justices said.

"The absence of a Code, however, has led in recent years to the misunderstanding that the Justices of this Court, unlike all other jurists in this country, regard themselves as unrestricted by any ethics rules. To dispel this misunderstanding, we are issuing this Code, which largely represents a codification of principles that we have long regarded as governing our conduct," it said.

Apple Friday Night Baseball
Apple and MLB announce August Friday Night Baseball schedule.
The August game schedule for “Friday Night Baseball,” a weekly doubleheader that airs on Fridays during the 2024 regular season and is accessible to Apple TV+ users, was revealed today by Apple and Major League Baseball (MLB).

Apple and Major League Baseball have not made an official announcement regarding the August “Friday Night Baseball” schedule; however, we can anticipate the following scenarios:
Similar structure: Judging from past years, we may anticipate Apple to stick to its former strategy of providing a doubleheader every Friday in August.
Put the emphasis on postseason contenders: The selected games will probably include teams that are in the running for the postseason, which will excite the crowd.
Inter-divisional games: Because spectators don’t see these clubs play as frequently, inter-divisional games usually draw more attention.
