Obiena eyes repeat vs Duplantis at Mondo Classic – Tempo – The Nation's Fastest Growing Newspaper

By KRISTEL SATUMBAGA Pole vaulter EJ Obiena joins an elite cast led by world record holder Mondo Duplantis in the Mondo Classic 2023 happening on Thursday, Feb. 2, at the IFU Arena in Upsalla, Sweden. The 11-player field is composed of the sport’s cream of the crop that also include two-time world champion Sam Kendricks and Olympian KC Lightfoot of the United States, 2016 Rio Olympics gold…

[wintersportism]

the two idiots they put as commentators for the indoor athletics meeting are worse than toni innauer and herbert fritzenweger combined. they butcher names left and right and i'm pretty sure they've never watched athletics in their lives.

"piotr lisek is struggling a lot today, very unusual" nO if you watched ANY meeting last year you would know that piotr has been struggling the entirety of last SEASON

kc lightfoot is NOT pronounced 'kee-cee' and literally NO ONE calls mondo duplantis by his actual first name 'armand'

540 Local Elected Officials From All 50 States Urge Prez Trump to Import More Refugees to U.S.

Joe Biden has promised to make this happen, including taking in foreigners from terrorist hotspots around the world. In fact, Joe Biden was one of the original architects of the fraud-ridden refugee program that has destroyed neighborhoods across the U.S.

by Ann Corcoran

I told you here that the refugee industry was working on a letter to the President urging him to get the refugee flow into America moving again.

Yesterday they sent the letter with 540 signatories.

Says Amnesty International:

By signing this letter, these elected officials have joined together to voice their commitment to welcoming refugees in their communities and reviving the United States’ legacy as a leader in refugee resettlement.

I notice something missing from the letter. It avoids giving the President a number, but the industry has made it very clear!

They want 95,000 refugees to begin arriving on October first.

The President could make a decision this month on how many refugees might be invited to live in the US in FY2021. He could also legally set the ceiling at zero.

All of my posts on the topic are tagged FY2021.

Here are the signatories from yesterday.  The list is handy for identifying those local elected officials who are changing America by changing the people.

I don’t know why the organizers think that these open borders advocates will hold any sway with the President, but they sure make it handy for you to identify the other side where you live. Target them for retirement when they come up for re-election!

(For a little additional fun, see last year’s list here.)

They say the list is bipartisan, but there is no indication of party affiliation.  You will need to look through those listed in your state to see if Republicans are among those looking to import more poverty to your city.

Eso fue en las brumas previas a la pandemia de 2018, cuando el sueco nacido en EE.

Song Quiz Thing

I was tagged by @belphegor1982!

A song you like with a colour in the title: Yellow, by Coldplay. A song you like that is a killer cover of a famous song: Rock El Casbah, by Rachid Taha.  It's a mostly-Arabic cover of The Clash's Rock the Casbah and is a zillion times better (though I like the original too). A song that reminds you of summertime: Walking On Air, by the Bee Gees.  I decided not to cheat and go with obvious stuff like Summer of `69 or Summertime :> A song you like with a number in the title: #1 Crush, by Garbage. A song that needs to be played LOUD: Locked in the Trunk of a Car, by the Tragically Hip.  Classic Canadiana. A song that makes you want to dance: I'm Your Boogie Man, by KC and the Sunshine Band.  I used to dance all the time, but my knees won’t tolerate more than a bit of it anymore.  Rock El Casbah would fall under this category too but I’ve already used it. A song to drive to: Pretty Vegas, by INXS. A song about drugs or alcohol: Minnie the Moocher, by Cab Calloway. A song that makes you happy: You Spin Me Round, by Dead Or Alive.  I’ve been dead-on-my-feet depressed and cracked some genuine grins when it comes up on shuffle. A song that makes you sad: The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, by Gordon Lightfoot.  This song has particular resonance for me because I’ve lived in the Great Lakes region my entire life, and the lakes play such a large role in the region’s life; where you live around them determines the weather and climate of your area.  I live in an area encircled by four of the Great Lakes.  Superior is the only one I haven’t visited yet (it’s much farther north), but I really want to see it someday. A song that you really like that is so far from mainstream that it would get you funny looks: Rang Rang, from the Bollywood Hollywood soundtrack.  I don’t mean to imply there’s anything weird about Hindi music, but my spouse looked at me really oddly when this came up on shuffle because I don’t speak the language.  I just really love the song. ( @belphegor1982 picked Moskau for this answer and that’s one I could have gone with too.)

After receiving a record-breaking number of applications to join an exciting future of space exploration, NASA has selected its largest astronaut class since 2000. Rising to the top of more than 18,300 applicants, NASA chose 12 women and men as the agency’s new astronaut candidates.

Vice President Mike Pence joined NASA leaders Wednesday as they introduced the members of the 2017 astronaut class during an event at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston. While at Johnson, the vice president toured the International Space Station mission control center, and the historic mission control center, which was used during early NASA spaceflights, including the first moon landing mission, Apollo 11. He also was presented with a model of the International Space Station and a framed U.S. flag that was flown to and from the orbiting laboratory this winter.

“These are 12 men and women whose personal excellence and whose personal courage will carry our nation to even greater heights of discovery and who I know will inspire our children and our grandchildren every bit as much as your forebears have done so in this storied American program,” said Vice President Pence. “And to this newest class of astronauts, it’s my honor to bring the sincere congratulations of the 45th President of the United States of America, President Donald Trump. Your President is proud of you, and so am I.”

The astronaut candidates will return to Johnson in August to begin two years of training. Then they could be assigned to any of a variety of missions, including: performing research on the International Space Station, launching from American soil on spacecraft built by commercial companies, and departing for deep space missions on NASA’s new Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System rocket.

“We look forward to the energy and talent of these astronauts fueling our exciting future of discovery,” acting NASA Administrator Robert Lightfoot said. “Between expanding the crew on board the space station to conduct more research than ever before, and making preparations to send humans farther into space than we’ve ever been, we are going to keep them busy. These candidates are an important addition to the NASA family and the nation’s human spaceflight team.”  

Applicants included U.S. citizens in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories Puerto Rico, Guam, and American Samoa. The talented women and men selected for the new astronaut class represent the diversity of America and the career paths that can lead to a place in America’s astronaut corps.

The 2017 astronaut candidates are:

Kayla Barron, 29, Lt., U.S. Navy, is originally from Richland, Washington. She graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy with a bachelor’s degree in systems engineering.

With the addition of these 12 members of the 2017 astronaut candidate class, NASA now has selected 350 astronauts since the original Mercury 7 in 1959.

“These women and men deserve our enthusiastic congratulations,” said astronaut and Johnson Space Center Director Ellen Ochoa. “Children all across the United States right now dream of being in their shoes someday. We here at NASA are excited to welcome them to the team and look forward to working with them to inspire the next generation of explorers.”

The astronaut candidates will be available to talk to media in person at Johnson and by remote satellite link on June 8. Media interested in this limited opportunity should contact the Johnson newsroom at 281-483-5111.
