AITA for editing my sister’s college essay?

[☀️🛟🎓 to find it later]

I (22f) have a younger sister (17f) applying to college this fall. Her english class recently gave an assignment that was essentially “write your common app”. For context, I am known for editing college application essays, I have done so for several family friends, and I don’t pull punches. As such, I asked if I could help edit her essay, and she agreed.

It was a great essay!! I helped her out with some smaller grammatical things and to tighten up sentences, and she submitted the class assignment.

Here’s where I may be the asshole. Later that night I kept rereading the essay, and I noticed a few issues in the middle portion. I wound up heavily editing the essay on my own document to make the emotions came across clearer and to tie in some key metaphors.

The next day, I wound up asking if I should share this document with her, and she ended up agreeing. I tried to give her an out because I could tell she was a bit annoyed, but she insisted that I share it now that I brought it up. Immediately after I shared it she called me crying, saying that she felt as though I had steamrolled over her work. She was sad because she liked it, and angry that I butted in. To be frank, I did inject too much of my own voice into this rewritten essay.

My sister has admitted to feeling very pressured when compared to me, as I achieved a lot academically and have a steady career. My parents and I have tried to reassure her that she is not expected to emulate me, but no matter how many times we say it, she won’t internalize that I am NOT a bar she needs to measure up to. She doesn’t seem to realize that I struggled and failed so many times in so many ways b/c she didn’t actually see it; she was too young at the time.

I want her to grow beyond what I could achieve, and I want her to be confident in herself. She’s incredibly smart, but she thinks I’m smarter because we have different strengths and she devalues her own.

I feel guilty because it was not my intention to “lord over her” by writing her essay “better”; our writing styles are different, but her essay came across as dry and I wanted to give an example of how she could inject more emotion into the turning point, which is arguably the most important part of a college essay. However, I fear she took it badly, and I should have been more careful given how she views me.

I really don’t want her to make the same mistakes I did with my college applications, and I know that getting into college has become incredibly difficult post-pandemic. Objectively, some of her test scores are below where mine were, and her extracurriculars, while good, are slightly “less” than what her peers are doing (our high school is extremely competitive) so I want to ensure her essays are as polished and punchy as possible to give her the best shot at getting into the colleges she wants. We’re not hiring any college application tutors, so I’m the only major mentor she has for this, since our parents did not attend college in the US.

My sister and I def talked it out and we both apologized to each other, so we’re all good. I admitted to being too pushy, she admitted to not handling criticism well and putting me on a pedestal, and we both agreed to handle essay help differently in the future.

AITA here? On the one hand, I was harsh in my delivery and should have given her more opportunity to edit using her voice instead of forcibly tossing mine into the mix. One the other hand, college apps are getting tougher and tougher and she needs as much help as she can get (not a dig at her intelligence, everyone needs help these days). Though sis and I worked it out, I’m curious to know what the general opinion is.

I think this a good time as any to share what I think H0rners big brain been cooking for some time, especially after the Spa fiasco wid Danny ric and allegedly big sponsors having to step in to save Checos seat ((Im skeptical of those reports but they not really the point, Checo bringing Liberty, and rbr, a lot of money from very intense LATAM pockets never been a secret, and it does matter in the cost cap era, its just how things are. Plus replacing Checo not something that keeps Horner up at night believe it or not, and that's where my word vomit comes in)).

I been sitting wid this 1 for some time, but mind u its all speculation on my part and mostly incoherent because my brain is completely fried these days. But stay wid me 😭😭. Adrian Newey leaving-- not just because of how it was announced, the way it was dealt wid internally, the shit he's been saying to press now ((he's tired and needs a break but been shopping around for teams like he's bored on hinge)) -- was , imo, more of a statement of distrust. In the rbr project, but mainly in Horner. He no longer believes Horners ability to succeed, he prolly already knew the rb20 as an evolution of the rb19 had its set of obvious limitations when it came to suspension once the field closed up, he knew they were headed down a difficult type of season, he took a step back, he saw the cracks begin to delve deeper and deeper into nastiness between the Verstappen camp and Horner, he saw Horner refuse to take accountability while Max very pointedly and UNLIKE all the other red bull drivers refused to express his unconditional support for Horner. Quite the opposite, Verstappen began making threats. Centering the importance of the car ((!!!)) and a stable environment, not Horners innocence or lack thereof. He doesn't care about that, as long as hes got the people and the car to work wid. Keep that in mind.

But back to the Newey divorce . Adrians one of the most important figures in motorsport period, he knew he had better options, perhaps some financial motivations, why not, he said thank you, I don't trust you anymore, goodbye. So here falls a core, original pillar of Milton Keynes, arguably one of the most successful aerodynamicists of all time. 1 of Red Bulls bishop, gone. Still, they rallied behind Wache, they said Adrian hadn't been part of development for some time, their factory remains strong, they can fill in the gaps, rbr is STABLE, sure sure sure.

Imola, Canada, Spain. We all hold hands wid Max and play pretend for a lil bit. Verstappen factor and all that bullshit. But for some reason, Max delivers the same conclusion every post race presser. This car is falling behind. We are starting to struggle. The sim data and the on track data don't correlate. This car is not gonna win constructors. Idk how the fuck its even the WDC. CHECO of course appears to be driving for my cousin's bumper cars themed birthday party so we can all point and laugh and marvel at how a driver known for his experience and who's won races and gotten poles to suddenly drop to fucking p6 in the standings. Surely this is the worst driver of all time. Surely.

Austria. Rbr pit stops, already looking kinda iffy since the beginning of the season, hit a new low. Lando, wid a single good overtake, wins the race, effectively beating Max on track. Max didn't let him. And he came out of it with a points advantage too, because he made a choice regarding his driving and how he wud defend his position. In a better car, that's never a choice he has to make. But the car isn't on par wid Mclaren. Rbr factory development has, quite clearly, stalled. Upgrade packages go backwards.

Hungary. Yeah. Everything is stable and the car was good and Max was beyond delighted of course.

So, that's stable environment gone, competitive car gone, and now off goes Wheatley to fulfill his tp destiny. Somebody , who, once upon a time, was rightly identified as the guy who wud replace Christian Horner due to the severity of the allegations made against him. Yeah, remember when Horner shud have fucking been fired? But Horner stayed, Newey left, and Wheatley left. To disconnect these events is, imo, a lil bit insane. Wid Wheatley gone, that's red bulls bishop n2 fallen. I think its fairly reasonable to assume somebody wid 2 cats in Monaco is straight up not having a good time anymore.

So, where do Checo and Danny ric and that fucking seat come in. They're all part of this dance, but I think in a way that's been fairly misinterpreted. See for a long time now, prolly since he signed Danny ric to do tiktoks, even before Vcarb became a thing, Horner has not been looking for a replacement for Checo. He's been looking for a replacement for Max. Ik, again, this is me letting the voices take over. Lemme say some unhinged shit before u call the cops. Max is an impossible teammate. U cant match Max on pace over an entire season, u cant prioritize a driver over Max when it comes to development, u cant tailor a car to somebody like Checo ((which , because Im so fucking money on this, is what Horner has just claimed he's gonna start doing post Spa)) and not Max, because, simply put, the car will be slower. Max can drive faster cars, he can deliver the poles, he can give rbr a fighting chance, he's been doing that shit, wid more or less success, all season, most of his fucking career actually. Now, who do y'all know who also qualifies very well, likes a pointy car wid a shit ton of oversteer and recently been caught discussing rb20 failings wid Verstappen himself. Danny ric. And Danny ric, like Checo, is very much in the Horner camp side of things. Danny ric, rn, comes wid bonuses of loyalty and trust and maybe a lil chip on his shoulder that Verstappen quite simply does not have, or cares to have because that brother is trying to get his fourth championship, not survive f1. Danny ric comes as a success story for red Bull amidst very trying times for the brand, the silver son who bent the knee and came home to warm hugs and big smiles after nearly getting fucking taken out back in a farm by Zak brown. U put that brother next to Checo or Lawson or whoever u also have the bonus of not having one of the best drivers of all time absolutely refuse to finish behind them, which can be a lil bit annoying if the car is shit too.

Horner is a stingy, extremely egocentric asshole, who prolly shudve been fired a long time ago, and he's not the team principal I thought he was. Horner's strength as a tp came from standing on business for his WDC once the going gets hard. He's doing none of that this season, at least not for Max. He's just a man, and at the end of the day, he's got the pride and insecurity of one, too. If he thought Newey was expendable, well sure u already have a bald man in the team who gives a fuck ((????)), if he thinks Wheatley is expendable, that's pointing towards a more personal type of dutch centric trend, because if he thinks MAX is expendable ... if this 2023 Merc stinking ass fucking season is headed the way I think its headed baby. I wish him good luck .

Writing Tips - Villains VS Antagonists

The difference between a villain and an antagonist is that antagonists don’t have to be bad guys, whereas with villains it’s basically a requirement. Antagonists only have to serve as obstacles to the endeavours of the protagonists, regardless of whether their stance is moral or even just generally opposing the protagonist

So when should you use a villain and when should you use an antagonist?

There’s not necessarily a right or wrong answer here, but it’s important to recognise that not every story needs a villain, whereas most will rely on an antagonist. All stories need conflicts or challenges that keep the protagonist from achieving their goals, and since that’s the same role an antagonist fills, it’s easy to use other characters to do it. It also helps to add internal conflict, as well as antagonists being extremely versatile; they could be anything from a friendly rival putting their all into a competition against the protagonist, to the school bully who goes out of their way tormenting people, to a police officer chasing the protagonist criminal - that’s right, antagonists can even be the good guy and objectively more heroic or in the right than the protagonist is

Really the only thing that separates the two is their morality and how far astray their acts and intentions are from arguably good; you can have a non-villainous antagonist by making their antagonism unrelated to morality or their immoral acts being far too weak to achieve villain status (a real-life Nelson Muntz isn’t gonna be making actual villain status at ten, for example), and you can have a non-antagonistic villain by ensuring they don’t oppose or challenge the protagonist

I’ve seen several people lately worrying that they need to get a villain in, so this is for you guys; stories do not inherently require a villain, and if anyone tries to tell you otherwise, maybe they just don’t know the difference between a villain and an antagonist

Is there room in a standalone ask to talk about why Eduard Bernstein "concluded...that Marx was basically wrong about the internal dynamics of capitalism, their effects on the class structure of society, and the implications for political action"?

Ok, so there's part of this that I'm really not going to get into, because all you really need to understand is that Marx had this theory of falling rates of profit being inherent to capitalism, and Bernstein did all of these calculations of German industry at the turn of the 20th century that he felt showed that wasn't happening, and all of that stuff is really only interesting to Marxist political economists of a particular age.

What I find more interesting is Bernstein's work on immiseration and the class composition of the industrial workforce. A big part of Marx's theory of the inevitability of revolution is that he argued that capitalism would constantly oppress workers with lower wages and worse working conditions (in order to extract more surplus labor-value from them), that artisans and the petit bourgeois would find themselves squeezed down into the proletariat by the forces of capitalist competition, and in this fashion, the industrial proletariat would not only become radicalized, but they would also become the overwhelming majority such that they could overthrow the capitalist system by force of numbers, once they had been properly educated and organized.

Bernstein did a bunch of empirical analyses of the industrial workforce of Germany and realized that Marx's predictions were not coming true - wages were going up not down, but more importantly the middle classes were not becoming proletarianized, nor were the proletariat becoming the numerical majority. Instead, what was happening was that industrial capitalism was calling forth a new middle class - engineers, clerks, accountants, corporate lawyers, foremen, etc. - and the working class was becoming increasingly subdivided between unskilled, semi-skilled, and skilled workers.

To Bernstein, this empirical fact had important political ramifications: if the socialist movement wanted to prosper, it needed to build a cross-class alliance with the bourgeois political parties of the middle classes to establish democracy and civil rights, and then to use those rights to push for the eight hour day and old age pensions and other reforms that would improve the immediate material conditions of the working class.

And, arguably, Bernstein was right about this - a lot of socialist and social democratic parties got into office for the first time through alliances with non-socialist political parties, whether that's the Scheidemann cabinet pulling together the SPD, the DDP, and the Center Party or the Swedish SAP starting their historic run at government with an alliance with the Swedish farmers' party.

Nah. It definitely looks like a throw away year incoming. I mean by the sounds of things (like the fact that they don't have a replacement lined up) his resignation was unexpected. Then the people they wanted to employ all turned down the job so they're thinking of employing a man who was probably going to be out of a job in a 2 years time. Besides that, they lost their TD, the TD who was up until this week still working on the car. Who we know has the loyalty of the engineering team. So that will likely have an effect. This kind of a disruption 94 days before the season starts can't be good. Then even if the car is competitive out the gate, all this reshuffling and restructuring is bound to come with its problems throughout the season. And we saw how important in-season development is - with a overthrow of the engineering department I don't think they'll be able to keep up with development of the other teams. Charles was right when he said they need stability. All this means is reshuffling positions again - not with the people best suited to the jobs, but who is available because there's ticking clock on this. You can't possibly win a championship when there's this much disruption. So yeah, I think it'll be a lost year. Again

Yeah, god knows how the engineering team will react. He was an important figure but he wasn't the only key player in that department. Others worked on the F1-75 too, though they are rarely mentioned. As a counter argument, though, they've historically struggled to keep up in the in-season development race, even when they had stability, and Binotto was the TD.

Obviously losing a TD is less than ideal, but again, if he simply didn't want to return to that position, preferring to resign instead, what more could they have done? It would have been better for the sake of stability and continuity if he had remained in that role, but he chose not to. It was always going to be a precarious situation when you had one man holding two very important positions within the team. It's something they admittedly should've prepared for better. Remains to be seen who will end up taking over the TD role.

There's just so many unknowns at the moment it's hard to gauge how this will go. It may very well be a lost year (again, depends how one sees that, if it's not being able to challenge for the title or being below the Mercs or what) but that would mean almost certainly losing Charles. Contracts can take months to negotiate, especially when it's not a clear cut situation, and there's already a question mark over his future at Ferrari that arguably wasn't there 12 months ago. So it would be best if they could somehow move past whatever internal feuds might be brewing and give it their best shot in 2023 or they're going to be in even bigger peril with a generational talent that's got one foot out the door.

Navigating the Future: Pimpri Chinchwad University in Pune

As the soul of Pune blooms forth, a new addition is Pimpri Chinchwad University (PCU), which was introduced in 2017. This PCU has envisioned empowering students through innovative learning and skill building in all aspects. Such thorny features and initiatives make Pimpri Chinchwad University a prime choice for aspiring students.

New Curriculum Design

Pimpri Chinchwad University boasts to have an effective mix of conventional classroom teaching and modern pedagogies. The curriculum offered, which is updated regularly to match the latest requirements in the industry, equips students at campuses with the latest skills and knowledge, while graduating from PCU.

Experiential learning at the university prepares students for solving real-life problems by using case studies, simulation exercises, and hands-on projects due to an active and experienced faculty.

The faculty is arguably one of the greatest assets that the university has. They comprise professionals and academicians, who are veterans in their fields, and draw much wealth to the classroom. They were committed to providing not only knowledge but also mentoring students, guiding them through academic and professional challenges. Faculty participation in research and industry projects within their classrooms adds a depth that makes learning not only applicable but also dynamic.

Emphasis on Research and Innovation

The philosophy of Pimpri Chinchwad University is mostly an approach towards research. The students and faculty members are encouraged to engage in cutting-edge research that would fulfill societal needs. It offers well-equipped research centers and labs as resources for doing groundbreaking studies and inventions. It helps the university promote great academic reputation, and it inspires students to think in innovative and out-of-the-box manners.

Vibrant Campus Life

PCU also has a strong campus life that catalyzes personal development as well as involvement in communities. Various extracurricular activities have been conducted, including cultural fests, sports events, and technical competitions. These activities allow the students to pursue their interests, provide a leadership experience, and expose them to interaction from different people. This campus life causes students to take more towards their university life.

Dedicated Career Services

Pimpri Chinchwad University understands the competitive job market and aims to equip students with the opportunity to make a seamless transition from academia to industry by offering career services. The efforts of the placement services team are augmented through placement drives, resume workshops, and mock interviews, so students are provided with all the tools to excel in careers. Industry professionals' frequent visits through guest lectures and workshops further enhance the industry-readiness of the students.

Social Responsibility

Pimpri Chinchwad University adopts a vision towards social responsibility. The two institutions are proactively involved in outreach programs where students participate in local development for several community service programs. Initiatives taken towards education, health, and environment-orientations leave social responsibility induced in the minds of students before they become effective leaders.

World-class Infrastructure

PCU offers the learners facilities with modern infrastructure to promote learning. The college has a high-tech campus with new-age classrooms, specialized laboratories, an extensive library, and sporting facilities. The university has made specific investments that make the campus conducive for learning, providing students with the latest information that could be available to back their work.

International Partnerships

Pimpri Chinchwad University acknowledges the importance of international exposure, encourages students to experience international exposure, and forms international ties with universities worldwide so as to facilitate exchanges among other programs, research collaborations, and cultural exchange. Education is given a global dimension, thereby preparing the students to act more fruitfully in an increasingly interdependent world. Conclusion

Pimpri Chinchwad University is not an educational institution in the literal sense; it is an environment that gives scope for innovation, research, and self-enrichment. Its curriculum, skilled teachers, and emphasis on social responsibility form a total education that indeed prepares the students for success in their careers and in life itself.

For the transformational educational journey, Pimpri Chinchwad University would be the launching pad for future leaders and changemakers. Perhaps PCU has in store is the gateway to someone's true potential! for more info visit: https://careermantra.net/

Would you say it’s comparatively easier to get a PhD or grad degree at a good UK university if your GP A is not perfect

Keep in mind that I’m an undergrad, and I’ve never really dealt with any postgrad admissions.

The first point of note is that you’re less likely to get a student visa if you’ve been admitted to a lower-ranking university in the UK. The UK has a lot of universities—approximately 160—and about 50% of those are what’s now known as post-1992 universities. These are universities which received their university status in or after 1992. Most of them are former polytechnics or colleges (the closest US equivalent would be trade school or community college), and some are simply newer universities, but all of them are comparatively low in national rankings and have much higher admissions rates. I would not recommend applying to these universities as an international student, as your visa application is much more likely to be denied. Be careful when choosing universities, and stick to the Russell Group if you can (with a few notable exceptions—St Andrews comes to mind). At postgraduate level, the quality of the department matters more over the reputation of the university overall, but to immigration officers, rankings are still important.

The second point is that, regardless of the post-1992 unis, it’s still easier to get into a UK university at postgraduate level with a lower GPA. This is because UK universities put less weight on GPA (it’s not a thing over here), and they accept a much higher proportion of international students at postgraduate level. Undergraduate admissions to top UK universities are much, much more competitive than postgraduate admissions, and I know lots of students who were rejected from Oxbridge/LSE/Imperial for undergrad, but accepted for postgrad.

To give some statistics on this:

The acceptance rate for Jurisprudence BA (an undergraduate degree) at Oxford is approximately 9–11%.

The acceptance rate for the BCL (a postgrad degree) at Oxford is approximately 20–21%.

The percentage of international undergraduate students at Oxford is approximately 23%.

The percentage of international postgraduate students at Oxford is approximately 65%.

Your chances of studying in the UK increase significantly if you’re a postgrad international. To put it bluntly: yes, it’s easier to get in.

However—and this is a big however—postgraduate study in the UK is different from, and arguably more difficult than, postgraduate study in the US. In the UK, a Master’s degree is considered a specialisation, and courses are typically shorter, and more research-focused. You’re expected to work at a higher level, much earlier, and you don’t have the same proportion of classes and assignments as you would at postgrad in America. A British Master’s degree (with the exception of American-influenced courses, like the MBA) is like a mini American PhD, in that you’re expected to work independently and produce a dissertation by the end.

In the US, graduate courses are broader and more of an expected rite of passage after undergrad, and they’re taught similarly to British undergraduate degrees, in that you have much more contact with your professor. Students in the US can often go straight from undergrad to studying a PhD, but in the UK, you have to have a Master’s first, and you’re usually expected to have published research during your postgraduate studies. Depending on your subject and personal nature, you might consider one country’s system more challenging than the other, but the main point is that they’re very different, and I know a lot of American postgrads doing their Master’s over here who are really struggling with the lack of contact hours and the expectations of independence and quality research from their departments.

National Review makes a fair point about Boeing's sweet deals

Boeing agreed to a plea deal with the Department of Justice over two deadly crashes of its 737 MAX aircraft in Indonesia and Ethiopia. The company pleaded guilty to defrauding the government by misleading regulators about an aircraft system that caused the crashes. Boeing will pay a fine of $243.6 million and be required to invest $455 million in safety, with an independent monitor overseeing the company for the next three years. But this should not be viewed as a purely private-sector failure. Boeing arguably benefits more from cronyism than any other U.S. company. The Export-Import Bank finances other countries’ purchases of its jets, including the 737 MAX series. The regulatory agency that Boeing has pleaded guilty to misleading, the Federal Aviation Administration, told Congress in June it was “too hands-off” in its oversight, after a door came off an Alaska Airlines Boeing. This extremely cozy relationship with government has been viewed as necessary for Boeing’s international competitiveness, but amid these safety concerns, orders are drying up and more customers are looking to Airbus for new planes. By preventing the case from going to trial, the DOJ is also likely preventing more information from coming to light about government complicity in Boeing’s failures.

Have they seen the Tenderloin?

San Francisco has discovered a new way to “solve” crime: Force businesses to close. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors has unanimously decided to forcibly close retail food and tobacco businesses, not including restaurants and bars, from midnight to 5 a.m. in a designated “high-crime area” in the Tenderloin neighborhood. This is a two-year “pilot” plan in response to the “high rate of drug-related crime in the Tenderloin.” The Tenderloin Housing Clinic supported this decision, with its director of community organizing blaming businesses for “feeding into this ecosystem.” Evidently, it is the fault of these businesses for allowing drug-addicted homeless people and criminals to wreak havoc in the neighborhood, not the fault of the district attorney, law enforcement, or the Board of Supervisors for allowing these conditions in the first place. This is made all the more bizarre by the fact that the city had previously authorized a “safe” drug consumption center in the Tenderloin district. San Francisco had given the green light to allow drug addicts to shoot up whenever they wanted, a move that predictably backfired as the neighborhood became less safe and less sanitary, made worse by the city’s refusal to prosecute them or just about any other criminals. Now, the blame is falling on businesses that are being forced to close by a city that created this problem in the first place.***

Good

Joe Biden had recently nominated Sarah Netburn, a woke activist judge for a lifetime position in the NY court system. This is the same judge that put a 6’2” convicted male pedophile in a women’s prison because he identified as a woman. He then exposed himself to female inmates.

However, it seems even this judge was just too much. Sarah Netburn's nomination was shot down on Thursday, preventing her from obtaining a lifelong seat in the NY court system.

LoT-T BTW - she was nominated to join the US District Court for the Southern District of New York.

What about all the other ammunition on earth?

***The case was dismissed by Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer, who ruled that the prosecution withheld potential evidence from Baldwin’s defense team — a collection of rounds that had been turned in to the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office earlier this year and may have been connected to the shooting. The possible evidence related to the question of how live ammunition ended up on set and inside the revolver that killed Hutchins, a key element in the chain of events that led to her death. Marlowe Sommer said it was “intentional and deliberate” that the prosecution had not shared the live rounds with Baldwin’s attorneys for evaluation. The actor’s team argued that the evidence may have cast doubt on whether Gutierrez-Reed had brought the live ammunition to the set, and that it was concealed because it was favorable to Baldwin and undercut the prosecution’s argument that Baldwin should have known the armorer was young and inexperienced and therefore taken extra precautions. In her ruling, Marlowe Sommer said that Baldwin’s defense team should have been informed of the ammunition earlier and that it was now too late to be incorporated into their defense. That meant not even the declaration of a mistrial could remedy the situation, meaning the case had to be dismissed with prejudice.*** https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/2024/07/13/alec-baldwin-trial-dismissal-rust/

+++

*** The issue emerged Thursday on the second day of the actor’s trial during defense questioning of sheriff’s crime scene technician Marissa Poppell. Baldwin lawyer Alex Spiro asked whether a “good Samaritan” had come into the sheriff’s office with the ammunition earlier this year at the end of the trial of Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the film’s armorer, for her role in Hutchins’ death. She was sentenced to 18 months in prison on an involuntary manslaughter conviction, which she is now appealing. The evidence was not put into the same file as the rest of the “Rust” case, and was not presented to Baldwin’s defense team when they examined the ballistics evidence in April. The man who supplied ammunition was a close friend of Gutierrez-Reed’s father, movie armorer Thell Reed. Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey argued that the move from the men was part of an attempt by Reed to shift blame away from his daughter. “This is a wild goose chase that has no evidentiary value whatsoever,” Morrissey told the judge Friday. “This is just a man trying to protect his daughter.” The case’s other special prosecutor, Erlinda Ocampo Johnson, resigned from the case earlier Friday. Spiro asked whether she had resigned based on the evidence issues being discussed. Morrissey said she believed it was over the holding of the public hearing itself. Speaking outside the courthouse doors, Morrissey said she respects the judge’s decision but that there was no reason to believe the undisclosed evidence in question was related to the set of “Rust.” “The importance of the evidence was misconstrued by the defense attorneys,” she said. “We did everything humanly possible to bring justice to Halyna and to her family and we’re proud of the work we did.” https://www.denverpost.com/2024/07/12/alec-baldwin-criminal-case-dismissed-new-mexico-rust-cinematographer-killed

I heard that the DA said the rounds in question had never been in New Mexico. The rounds had never left Arizona at any time relevant to the case.

The prosecution can appeal this dismissal. I hope they succeed.

Stupid headline of the day from Denver Post -

"Trump is injured but "fine" after apparent assassination attempt leaves rally-goer and gunman dead"

Do they really think Thomas Matthew Crooks was shooting at Corey Comperatore? BTW, RIP, Corey.

Ex-volunteer fire chief Corey Comperatore ID’d as Trump sniper victim, shielded his daughter from assassin’s bullets -NYPost

A former Pennsylvania volunteer fire chief was identified as the victim killed by a sniper who shot and wounded former President Donald Trump. Corey Comperatore, 50, who served as the fire chief for Buffalo Township, was shot and killed by Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, at a rally for Trump that left the former president and two others injured on Sunday, local WPXI reports.***

4chan showed that Crooks registered as a Repub. MSN/Reuters notes

When Crooks was 17, he made a $15 donation to ActBlue, a political action committee that raises money for left-leaning and Democratic politicians, according to a 2021 Federal Election Commission filing. The donation was earmarked for the Progressive Turnout Project, a national group that rallies Democrats to vote. The groups did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

documents case dismissed

J. Cannon dismissed the charges in United States v. Trump, 23-cr-80101 (S.D.Fla. Jul. 15, 2024). The opinion and order is linked.

Former President Trump’s Motion to Dismiss Indictment Based on the Unlawful Appointment and Funding of Special Counsel Jack Smith is GRANTED in accordance with this Order [ECF No. 326]. The Superseding Indictment is DISMISSED because Special Counsel Smith’s appointment violates the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution. U.S. Const., Art. II, § 2, cl. 2. Special Counsel Smith’s use of a permanent indefinite appropriation also violates the Appropriations Clause, U.S. Const., Art. I, § 9, cl. 7, but the Court need not address the proper remedy for that funding violation given the dismissal on Appointments Clause grounds.***

The first is a challenge to his appointment under the Appointments Clause, which provides the exclusive means for appointing “Officers of the United States.” Article II, § 2, cl. 2. The Appointments Clause sets as a default rule that all “Officers of the United States”—whether “inferior” or “principal”—must be appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. Id. It then goes on to direct that “Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in Heads of Departments.” Id. For purposes of this Order, the Court accepts the Special Counsel’s contested view that he qualifies as an “inferior Officer,” not a “principal” one, although the Court expresses reservations about that proposition and addresses those arguments below. The Motion’s second challenge is rooted in the Appropriations Clause, which prohibits any money from being “drawn from the Treasury” unless such funding has been appropriated by an act of Congress. Art. I, § 9, cl. 7 (“No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law. . . .”).***

Jack Smith was appointed by the Attorney General, not the president. He was not confirmed by the Senate. His office was funded by a DoJ slush fund, not by Congress.

***

Turns out senators aren't supposed to take gold bars in exchange for influencing foreign policy. Who knew?

A jury just convicted Sen Bob Menendez of New Jersey. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4761968-bob-menendez-guilty-verdict/

He had also been tried for corruption as a senator, but the jury couldn't reach decision in 2017.

Was that wrong? Should he not have done that?

Good luck with that. Let me know how that works out for you.

President Joe Biden is preparing to propose a major Supreme Court overhaul in the coming week that would include term limits for justices and an enforceable ethics code, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday citing two sources familiar with the plans. Biden is also weighing whether to call for a constitutional amendment to eliminate broad presidential immunity, the Post reported**** https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/immunity-supreme-court/2024/07/16/id/1172805

First of all, term limits require constitutional amendment. Second, no serious person believes Pres Biden will accomplish anything other than talk.

It's about fornicating time!

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Navy has exonerated 256 Black sailors who were found to be unjustly punished in 1944 following a horrific port explosion that killed hundreds of service members and exposed racist double standards among the then-segregated ranks. On July 17, 1944, munitions being loaded onto a cargo ship detonated, causing secondary blasts that ignited 5,000 tons (4,535 metric tonnes) of explosives at Port Chicago naval weapons station near San Francisco. The explosion killed 320 sailors and civilians, nearly 75% of whom were Black, and injured another 400 personnel. Surviving Black sailors had to pick up the human remains and clear the blast site while white officers were granted leave to recuperate. The pier was a critical ammunition supply site for forces in the Pacific during World War II, and the job of loading those ships was left primarily to Black enlisted sailors overseen by white officers.*** https://apnews.com/article/navy-black-sailors-port-explosion-wwii-racism-df009fd75325758b15294e2fdad93729

do you think Mariona is going to definitely move to Arsenal?

i will never believe anything until i see a signed contract, but i think it’s highly unlikely she’s going anywhere other than arsenal at this point. we’re a few weeks away from her contract at barça ending and she hasn’t been linked with any other teams and it's been widely reported on, and there's likely a verbal agreement already in place so if i was a gambler, i’d put my money on mariona being a gunner next season.

now for my many thoughts you didn't ask for.

firstly, i’ve been an arsenal fan for longer so selfishly i will always gladly take a world class player who has won multiple league titles, champions leagues and is a world cup and nations league winner. secondly, in my mind no one will replace viv ever, but mariona brings some of the same great playing qualities viv had (winning mentality, technical and scoring ability, etc) so arguably she helps fill the gap in our squad with viv gone. 

i’m not the best with tactics or in depth playing style analysis so take my thoughts on this with a grain of salt (i’d actually be super keen to hear @lucawrites11’s thoughts on this ngl, i live for their analysis posts)

she is a world class multiple champions league title holder and has won the league for the past five seasons. there wass a lot of discourse on awfc twitter a bit ago calling mariona washed up and old which is actual insanity imo because her and stina are the same age and performing just as well in their own ways?? like pls get a grip, touch some grass etc 

barça magic! going off the fact that two established english league players (keira and lucy) who moved to barcelona have commented on how intense and competitive the barça girls are in training, and the impact it has on their game and also playing styles makes me excited to see what mariona will bring to arsenal. i know codi also played for barça before her move to arsenal, but i do feel like jonas has never given her the time of day to properly shine and i hope that’ll be different if mariona joins us. mariona’s technical abilities are also just astonishing and i feel like we definitely could use more of that as a squad

i hope this means we see better rotation of caitlin foord because honestly i fucking cannot stand that jonas doesn’t regularly rest her when he can, and has multiple players on the bench who can play in her role as a starter or a super sub. foord is more prone to injury because of her high playing time and the regular long haul travel during international breaks, the poor girl never gets a fucking rest because she’s also crucial in the tillies starting line. it’s likely with bringing in a name like mariona she’s been promised regular minutes unlike some of the rest of our forwards bench because i highly doubt she would sign a contract to be treated the same way as some of our players have been by the swedish meatball. anyways, yay for jonas potentially learning how to rotate successfully this season 🤞🏽

finally, the silly reasons why i want mariona at arsenal. 

i. want. better. cellies. 😤😤  i have big expectations for my potential spanish gunner duo and making family fc progress from head taps as goal celebrations. give me all the vamoses and shithousery thanks 

i want to be able to understand all the team media and interviews with mariona unfortunately i understand absolutely no catalan and my spanish skills are currently not being helped much by duolingo so i understand absolutely none of the content the barca team put out with mariona in it. i still watch it all but if i’m able to understand it that’ll be chefs kiss 

mariona x the most important title of all, the mighty cunty (conti) cup enough said honestly 🤪

Higher rankings mean increased visibility, organic traffic, and ultimately, more conversions. In essence, SEO lays the foundation for your online presence, ensuring that your content doesn't get lost in the digital noise.

Why Choose WordPress for SEO?

WordPress, with its user-friendly interface and robust features, is a favorite among website owners and bloggers alike. It offers a plethora of plugins designed to enhance various aspects of your site, including SEO.

Like Yoast SEO, Rank Math offers both free and premium versions, with the free version providing ample features to kickstart your SEO journey.
