Everybody Has A Pouch b/w Backsliding Deist's Prayer The Deist's Pouch (Sommerweg) (released in 2000)
Yes, this is another one-off single from Vic Chesnutt and Kurt Wagner! This time around the label comes from Germany and the band involves a whole host of Lambchop veterans (not to mention a Yo La Tengo producer Mark Nevers who was an actual member of LAmbchop). There are a couple of (ex) members of Calexico here (Volker Zander and Martin Wenk), the sole member of Empire State (Tim Nackashi) and one of the members of Amorphous Strum (who made an album with Chesnutt in 2008). Everyone else was in Lambchop.
Above you see the cover and the back of the picture sleeve. That sleeve is a thin sleeve, not like most glossy picture sleeves you see come from overseas or even in the US. Below, you can see the 45 itself.
And here are two shots of the A and B side labels.

Antoine Fuqua Considering De-Aging Denzel for Equalizer Prequel
Technology continues to reshape the boundaries of storytelling. Director Antoine Fuqua, known for iconic films like "Training Day," has now set his sights on the realm of AI-driven digital de-aging, sparking a buzz around the possibility of rejuvenating the legendary Denzel Washington for an intriguing prequel to the "Equalizer" series.
The Equalizer Universe Expands
Speaking exclusively to NME, Antoine Fuqua unveiled an intriguing idea: using AI to digitally de-age Denzel Washington, the star of the "Equalizer" franchise. The idea of telling McCall's origins and the journey that forged him into the enigmatic figure we know today intrigued Fuqua and his team. Fuqua contemplated the idea of working on a project showing the earlier days of Robert McCall, the vigilant ex-hitman portrayed by Washington.
The concept of digitally de-aging actors is not new. Hollywood is actively embracing this technology to breathe life into the past and bridge timelines. From a digitally rejuvenated Harrison Ford in "Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny" to the masterful work in Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman," the boundary between the past and present has never been so captivating.

Fuqua's Perspective on the Tech
Antoine Fuqua's vision for a digitally de-aged Denzel Washington opens up a LOT of storytelling possibilities. In the interview, Fuqua expressed his intrigue about the technology, emphasizing the advancements he's seeing in films like an upcoming project starring Tom Hanks.
The idea of an "Equalizer" prequel is really exciting. Looking into McCall's past and seeing the events that shaped his path could offer fans a new perspective on the character. Fuqua acknowledged discussions with Richard Wenk, co-writer of the "Equalizer" trilogy, about exploring McCall's younger days, making the journey into the past seem all the more possible.
Uncharted Territory
While the digital de-aging process opens doors to uncharted storytelling, we still need to know if Denzel Washington is on board with the idea? Fuqua shared that he hadn't yet broached the topic with Washington and is closely monitoring the advancements in AI technology. Since the creation of the "Equalizer" series in 2014, Denzel's portrayal of Robert McCall has left an unforgettable mark. McCall's journey from intelligence officer to vigilante ex-hitman has captivated audiences. A prequel could absolutely offer a new layer to this complex character.
As we learn more about the potential prequel, fans of the "Equalizer" series still have The Equalizer 3 to look forward to soon. We'll share more information as soon as it's available.
That's all for now.

Persistence of SARS-CoV-2 #RNA shedding and infectivity in immunized population: Prospective study along different epidemiological periods in Argentina
by Clara Theaux, Yamila Martin, Luciana Montoto Piazza, Gretel Wenk, Guillermo Notaristefano, Laura Miño, María Eugenia Sevilla, Valeria Aprea, Aldana Claps, Mercedes Nabaes Jodar, Dolores Acuña, Melina Salvatori, Laura Álvarez, María Eugenia Langan, Gabriela Turk, Ricardo Del Olmo, Mariana Viegas, Miriam Bruno, Vivian Bokser
During the pandemic of COVID-19, numerous waves of infections affected the two hemispheres with different impacts on each country. Throughout these waves, and with the emergence of new variants, health systems and scientists have tried to provide real-time responses to the complex biology of SARS-CoV-2, dealing with different clinical presentations, biological characteristics, and clinical impact of these variants. In this context, knowing the extent period in which an infected individual releases infectious viral particles has important implications for public health. This work aimed to investigate viral #RNA shedding and infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 beyond 10 days after symptom onset (SO). A prospective multicenter study was performed between July/2021 and February/2022 on 116 immunized strategic personnel with COVID-19 diagnosed by RT-qPCR, with asymptomatic (7%), mild (91%) or moderate disease (2%). At the time of diagnosis, 70% had 2 doses of vaccines, 26% had 2 plus a booster, and 4% had one dose. After day 10 from SO, sequential nasopharyngeal swabs were taken to perform RT-qPCR, viral isolation, and S gene sequencing when possible. Viral sequences were obtained in 98 samples: 43% were Delta, 16% Lambda, 15% Gamma, 25% Omicron (BA.1) and 1% Non-VOC/VOI, in accordance with the main circulating variants at each moment. SARS-CoV-2 #RNA was detected 10 days post SO in 57% of the subjects. Omicron was significantly less persistent. Noteworthy, infective viruses could not be isolated in any of the samples. In conclusion, a 10-days isolation period was useful to prevent further infections, and proved valid for the variants studied. Recently, even shorter periods have been applied, as the Omicron variant is prevalent, and worldwide population is largely vaccinated. In the future, facing the possible emergence of new variants and considering immunological status, a return to 10 days may be necessary. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0285704&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=tumblr

'The Protégé': Kickass Femme Killer and Cringe-worthy Clashes ⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎
‘The Protégé’: Kickass Femme Killer and Cringe-worthy Clashes ⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎
There were a few moments I found cringe-worthy in this assassin-versus-assassin film, “The Protégé,” but none of them have to do with Maggie Q’s portrayal of a gritty, survivor whose rough past in Vietnam propelled her into life as an assassin. Circumstances tear this teen away from her family and she finds a surrogate father in a high profile killer, Moody Dutton (Samuel L. Jackson). When Moody…

'On The Basis Of Sex' Follows A Fiery Young Ruth Bader Ginsburg
“Initially, I was very very intimidated,” said Felicity Jones on starring as the Supreme Court Justice. “It's nerve wracking playing such a beloved woman, and I, myself, am a huge fan of her. But I had to put the fandom away, and play the truth of this woman's experience, and really get into the mind of who this woman was when she was younger, when she was much more, in many respects, open to the world and show how does someone get to that position.”
On the Basis of Sex is inspired by the story of a young Ginsburg, plowing through law school as one of only nine women in her Harvard class. Despite a stellar academic career, she couldn't find a job after graduating. So instead of starting her career in the courtroom, she went to the classroom, teaching at Rutgers University with a focus on sex discrimination law.
Hear from director Mimi Leder as she joins Jones to speak with Morning Edition host Rachel Martin.
