MDL Updates - Added to Watchlist:

Title MDL (year) - (date added to Considering or finalized to Watchlist): initial reaction

4Minutes - 240811: Been anticipating this for so long, decided to watch while it's on-air after 3 eps were out.

Love Sea - 240822: I was going to watch the sex scenes even if nothing else because of all the woof/dog/puppy things that was going on with Fort's character but now that I've got a week of iQiyi VIP, why not.

Knock Knock, Boys! - 240828: Wasn't on my radar but as it was airing, I've heard only good things and people seem satisfied with the ending. It seems sex-positive? Which I could really use from BLs. Also curious to see Seng.

The Secret of Us - 240828: Got a lot of praise, though it seems like it had a rocky ending. Gorgeous, gorgeous Orm. Need to watch this to just watch her face.

Rating: 6.5/10

Overall: I’m glad that I ended up liking this adaptation better than the Japanese Cherry Magic live-action which was meh to me. Karan and Achi were cute and endearing (and felt more human/real to me than Kurosawa and Adachi I think?). i’m so charmed by Jinta and Min actually, a vast improvement from the japanese version’s equivalent. I liked getting my little taste of celeb/non-celeb dating and typical idol show problems from them too. On the other hand, I didn’t care about Pai and Rock ship whatsoever, though they were okay as standalone characters. I enjoyed the adaptation and how it had the Japanese touches (the company try work for specifically) while also introducing Thai elements (religion, festivals, dialects). Great improvement on the kissing department and I’m glad they also squeezed the wedding in there.

Century of Love

Country: Thailand

Release Dates: Jul 10, 2024 - Aug 8, 2024

Watch Via: Youtube

Watch Dates: July 27 - Aug 8, 2024

Rating: 6.5/10

Overall: I think this show had a strong first half but the last two episodes were irritating and kind of forgot what the show was about in the first place. I enjoyed the 120-something year old San and his little family that spans generations, I like San's grumpy nature contrasted with Vee's bright demeanor, I liked the question of whether Vee is the real Wad reincarnation, I liked their romance and the tinge of sexiness, I liked San being cold to the idea of even doing anything with Vee but progressing to fall in love and ultimately choosing Vee regardless of whether he's the reincarnation or not. loved Juu! She was sooo cute and gorgeous and the acting was good, I want to see her more. But then for the last 3 episodes, we spent too much time with the flat, one-note villains with ridiculous fight scenes, hiding (ridiculous!!!) the stone situation from Vee and SanVee being separated and not on the same page instead of tackling this together, and no answers to one of the main aspects of the show (is Vee the Khun Wad reincarnation?) - just lipservice of "let the past be the past" as an afterthought. The premise and set-up of the show were good but it just fell flat at the end.

Proo Thunwa - ใช้ฉันทำไม (Stand-in): Watched this MV because it had Mark/Ohm and I was curious about the ship. Pretty interesting, I wish their show trailer was more appealing because based on the mock, I don't think I'll be watching it. but who knows, maybe the show will turn out incredible and I'll watch.

I wanna watch 4 Minutes so badly oof because I don't wanna be spoiled since it's only 8 episodes but I can't watch ep 3 as it airs, not until next Tuesday at the latest most likely and even eps 1 - 2 I'd have to watch on my phone and all staggered instead of the whole ep at once. But I don't wanna be too spoiled and I don't necessarily think I can avoid many spoilers because it comes up on my Twitter...

Chicago Trip

Modern Family (Aug 9): Watched the Up All Night episode on the plane to Chicago. I'd only watched random funny clips from the show before. The episode was funny and good. Would watch more episodes

New Girl (Aug 9): Watched S1 Ep 1 - 4 because my friends put it on. it was... meh to me i guess. funny kinda but not really my thing

Prom Pact (2023)

Country: USA

Release Dates: March 30, 2023

Watch Via: Disney+

Watch Dates: Aug 9, 2024

Rating: 5.5/10

Overall: Annoying characters, but at least I watched with friends and it's fun to have movie nights like that

Bbulbbul (2020)

Country: India

Release Dates: June 24, 2020

Watch Via: Netflix I think? Disney+?

Watch Dates: Aug 9, 2024

Rating: 7/10

Overall: A great surprise since I wasn't sure I'd like whatever horror movie my friends decided to watch. Great visuals (the CGI was not good lol but like idk the cinematography or art direction is maybe what I'm talking about), was obsessed with the couple and their interactions before Satya became similar to his brothers (that was the point). In love with the female lead Bulbbul when she's all grown up and her arroagant, leisurely demeanor in the present day. Such a tragic movie, especially how she was left alone to withstand such cruelty once Satya left but once he came back, he also hurled cruel words and did not treat her well, did not respect her, becuase of his jealousy towards Dr. Sudip. Then again, the very end can be still considered a win I suppose.

Watched episode 1 of 4 Minutes during the trip too.

Bad and Crazy (2022)

Country: Korea

Release Dates: Dec 17, 2021 - Jan 28, 2022

Watch Via: iQiyi (free trial)

Watch Dates: Aug 18 - 22, 2024

Rating: 6/10

Overall: Fine but did not make me feel much and is not going to stick with me the way other shows by these actors have. The first couple of corrupt cop investigations was fine but a bit annoying because we seemed to know everything far in advance to the characters finding out. The second half with Yunho was more interesting in some ways because we also did not know and it was like psychological tricks basically but I wish the ending was more satisfying somehow. Like everything is wrapped up nicely but Inwouldve liked it see it. Nothing super wrong with it but I could’ve just kept it off my watchlist and I wouldn’t have missed much.

Love Sea 

Country: Thailand

Release Dates: Jun 9, 2024 - Aug 11, 2024

Watch Via: iQiyi (free trial)

Watch Dates: Aug 22 - 28, 2024

Rating: 6/10

Overall: A fine enough show, I think the dynamic and characters were interesting and the show/relationships threads were good for the main couple, especially the class difference rich/poor conversations and how their dynamic evolved. Thank you forever for all the puppy/dog Mut. Unlike most people who were so over the side-GL, I was actually quite into Vie/Mook (esp because they have some tropes I enjoy, such as celeb/non-celeb and one person makes their crush do chores/errands) and kept hoping for... something to happen, for their dynamic to progress. They didn't get a proper ending, which is sad. Vie was also such a good friend to Rak, I don't know why she was such a terror with Mook and then never progressed past it. Loved Meena, what a cutie. I do agree with the general consensus that the island episodes were better.

Rating: 6/10

Overall: A cute special overall. It's about Rak and Mut's progress and lives together in the future and how they've met each other in the middle rather than random drama. Vie and Mook are cute too, it makes me sad that their story wasn't given a proper conclusion in the original series. Also, I wanna go on vacation so bad.

I feel like I don't get attached to shows and characters as I used to. Even when I enjoy the process of watching a show like My Stand-In or Century of Love, I finish watching and then don't ever really think about the pair or storyline. I miss being consumed by a show or being incredibly fond when thinking of a ship, not just watching a show for 1 hour episodes and then stop thinking about it the minute I finish it.

In that same vein, I'm once again rewatching parts of History 3: Trapped. The Ampliverse/Boys Love Boys Love are recapping it and they're only on ep 3 (/ep 6) but man, I love that show a whole lot and hearing them talk about it makes me wanna watch it too. Rewatched eps 17-18 + the dancing in the club scene in ep 3 (What an iconic moment fr).

Watched the 4 Minutes episode.

Watched History 3: Trapped Ep 19/20 (Ep 10). Man, what a show.

As per an update by on-chain analytics firm Glassnode, the portion of bitcoin [BTC] miners’ earnings derived from transaction fees touched a new monthly peak of 2.842%. 📈 bitcoin?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">#bitcoin $BTC Percent Miner Revenue from Fees (7d MA) just reached a 1-month high of 2.842% Previous 1-month high of 2.837% was observed on 11 August 2023 View metric: pic.twitter.com/AgerAmf5ar — glassnode alerts (@glassnodealerts) September 7, 2023 Recent legal victories gave a respite to the crypto world, with BTC floating above the $27K-Price mark for a few days. But that enthusiasm soon died down, with token prices plummeting. At press time, BTC was Trading at $25,864. The king coin earlier soared as high as $31.7K within a day of Ripple [XRP] securing a partial victory in its legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on 13 July. But it failed to sustain the Price rally. The U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York ruled in its judgement that the sale of Ripple’s XRP tokens on crypto exchanges and though programmatic sales did not constitute Investment contracts; hence, it is not a Security in this case. But the court also ruled that the institutional sale of the XRP tokens violated federal Securities laws. The crypto industry lapped up the judgement instantly, generating a Price rally across tokens. We should also note that in June, the SEC approved the first leveraged bitcoin futures exchange-traded fund (ETF), namely the Volatility Shares 2x bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITX).  The SEC has also bitcoin-ETF-proposals-review-2023-07-19/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow external noreferrer" data-wpel-link="external">accepted spot BTC ETF proposals from major traditional finance (TradFi) firms for review, including BlackRock, Bitwise, VanEck, WisdomTree, Fidelity and Invesco. Last month, London-based Jacobi Asset Management News/press-release-15th-august-2023/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="external">announced the launch of its BTC ETF in Europe. Observers look at these Developments as institutional approval of Cryptocurrency. Read bitcoin’s [BTC] Price Prediction 2023-24 For a long time, the crypto’s Price hovered between $200 and $1,000 on the Price charts. However, in late 2017, BTC’s value exploded, hitting an all-time high (ATH) of nearly $20,000 in December. Though Market participation grew, the Price rally was short-lived. By early 2018, BTC’s Price had fallen back down to around $3K. The cryptocurrency market as a whole recorded a period of decline, with many traders losing significant amounts of money. Nonetheless, bitcoin made a remarkable recovery, surpassing its previous ATH in late 2020 and reaching an ATH of over $68K in November 2021. However, the 2022 Trading year ushered in a new era of bearishness, one exacerbated by the collapse of Terra/LUNA and FTX. In fact, in November 2022, bitcoin was Trading at a two-year low of $15K. While the crypto Market may be unpredictable and volatile, traders and investors can still make informed decisions by staying up-to-date on Market News, following expert analysis, and using intelligent Trading Strategies, such as those offered by ChatGPT. ChatGPT: A messiah that can help you trade better?  In November 2022, the AI model ChatGPT was launched to the public. In fact, it quickly gained significant attention, too. With its broad range of capabilities and versatility, the question arises whether there are other ways that ChatGPT can lend its expertise, such as assisting BTC traders in formulating and applying improved Trading Strategies. When asked if it could do this, ChatGPT had this to say – Source: ChatGPT Due to its nature as an AI tool, there are limitations to what ChatGPT can do regarding Price predictions and Price future movements. However, there are ways to leverage the tool’s capabilities to formulate better Trading Strategies as a BTC trader.

One way to utilize the AI tool to make better Trading Strategies is by deploying it toward fundamental analysis. ChatGPT is capable of extracting insights from financial News articles, social media posts, and other unstructured data sources. We can use this Information in conjunction with other datasets to make informed Trading Strategies. Another way to use ChatGPT as a bitcoin trader is to use it for sentiment analysis. ChatGPT can be fine-tuned to perform sentiment analysis on Information from News articles, on-chain data providers, social media discussions, and other sources. This can be used to identify whether the BTC Market lingers under positive sentiment or is plagued by negative sentiment. Furthermore, BTC traders can use ChatGPT for technical analysis. Traders can ask ChatGPT to code any technical indicator or Trading bot for any Trading platform. For instance, I asked ChatGPT to give me an example of a Trading bot that I can use to track BTC’s Price volatility in pine script–TradingView’s programming language is useful for back testing Trading Strategies. The AI responded, Source: ChatGPT To use ChatGPT for technical analysis, traders need to be familiar with the language to know when to make the necessary modifications for the code to work properly. The prompt text is crucial in how ChatGPT understands the problem and provides the anticipated solution. Is your Portfolio green? Check out the BTC Profit Calculator For a well-rounded piece, I spoke to Brian Quinlivan, the Director of Marketing at Santiment, who also happens to have been involved in Bitcoin trading for a few years. Brian Quinlivan has an MBA degree in finance from Chapman University, Brian has over 10 years of marketing, financial, and data analytics experience. He enjoys creating financial models to improve modern-day investing strategies and study the intricacies of Market variations. Q: In what ways do you think ChatGPT can revolutionize Cryptocurrency trading? Yeah, I think that there’s going to be a lot of use for it, certainly for Trading Strategies. One thing to be concerned about is the uniform Opinions that may result from an AI tech giving a kind of overarching strategy, whether it be hodling or fundamental strategy. Individuals can easily manipulate ChatGPT to (mis)inform the audience. We are already seeing slight effects of it. I think it can be both helpful and dangerous at the same time and cause a lot of people to be educated much more quickly, but also be pulled in directions that can influence the way crypto goes and create a lot of self-fulfilling prophecies. Q: How do you think a BTC trader/investor can leverage the AI tool to make better Investment decisions? I think, in short, I think scripts would be used in AI a lot more because of the fact that all of the data could be digested at the same time and given a very simple answer whether to buy or sell. This, I believe, can influence the markets tremendously moving forward. When will BTC hit the $30K-Price mark, if it will?  As mentioned above, ChatGPT cannot make future predictions. To get it to answer my question, I decided to jailbreak it by using the AI.plainenglish.io/chatgpt-unleashed-the-ultimate-AI-jailbreak-journey-to-unrestricted-power-1892d16b47a9" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="nofollow external noopener noreferrer">Do Anything Now (DAN) method. It says that it can take BTC a few days or weeks or more to cross the $30K-Price mark. Source: ChatGPT I further quizzed the AI Technology on bitcoin prices between 2023 and 2024. Source: ChatGPT The AI bot predicted that BTC will experience significant fluctuations in these two years— both positive and negative. In early June, the SEC began its crackdown on Binance [BNB] and Coinbase [COIN], leading to a bearish Market. In such a situation, BTC has shown its resilience so far. At press time, BTC was Trading at $25,864. Investors are hoping that the token will at least reach the $30k-Price mark again.  While BTC’s

Relative Strength Index (RSI) rested below the neutral 50-mark, its Money Flow Index (MFI) rested much above it. Its On Balance Volume (OBV) also showed a similar fluctuation to that of its Price movement. Source: BTC/USD, TradingView As of now, BTC’s on-chart metrics don’t indicate a Price rally.  ChatGPT might be right ChatGPT predicts that BTC will experience significant fluctuations in two years. We will have to see if the coin can break all-time highs during 2023-24 due to its increased adoption (by companies and institutions) and as BTC’s Appeal as a hedge against inflation grows. Its on-chart metrics also don’t encourage us— at least in the short term.  However, it is trite to note that increased regulation and government scrutiny could spread FUD, causing its Price to dip.

100,000 issues filled with love, compassion and a wholesome community. Thank you, Rust community, for being one of the most, if not straight out the most, welcoming programming communities out there. Thank you, Rust teams, for the tireless hours you spend every day on every aspect of this project. Thank you to the Rust team alumni for the many hours spent growing a plant and the humility of passing it to people you trust to continue taking care of it. Thank you everyone for RFCs, giving voice to the community, being those voices AND listening to each other.

This community has been and continue to be one of the best I have ever had the pleasure of being a part of. The language itself has many things to love and appreciate about it, from the humane error messages to giving the people the power to express high performance code without sacrificing readability for the ones to come after us. But nothing, truly nothing, takes the cake as much as the community that's building it, answering questions, helping and loving each other. Every single day.

Congratulations everyone for 100,000 issues and PRs! And thank you for being you. Because Rust is Beautiful, for having you as part of it.

To the times we spent together and the many more to come!

useful resources for tears of themis

i've used a lot of different resources when planning out my s-chip saving and spending, and it’s high time that i compiled a list. this focuses on records of past events and cards. hopefully this will be helpful for you too! happy anniversary~

Tears of Themis Wiki

Excellent source for general game information, and a record for content already released on global server. Some pages I like:

Homepage - includes timers counting down for events, active redeem codes, and study stage availability

Currency Income Report - records schip and tears income each month through tasks and events, separates for f2p vs monthly card

Big Data Lab - ctrl+f through all big data lab entries

Events - the page for each event includes all the dialogue for encounters with the male leads

Card List

by u/elegantomen on reddit

has pictures of each card and a document outline for easy navigation

no dates listed for the card though, it’s just in chronological order from the CN server.

NXX Toolbox

Great for information on card power, skill, etc (basically the strategy and not aesthetics). Pages include:

Card list - useful for a quick reference on attribute and skills

Calculate the resources you need to level up a card

Vision History - past rotation banners with dates

Official Merch List

Comprehensive Calendar

(I just saw the link on reddit, please tell me if you know the source so I can credit properly)

has CN/global server events including specific start and end dates

including things such as main/personal story releases, mini events, lounge sets, invitations, etc

Events Schedule

by @dailythemis on twitter;

events listed by month, though no dates given

has global and CN server

also has a list of skills and information on banners/pity

Future Events (discontinued)

2022 Blogs (So Far)

Not posted on this here page for a good while, mostly because I didn’t see much point...and, well maybe there still isn’t. HOWEVER, Twitter is shitting the bed something fierce right now, so there’s no better time to revive another place.

Although I haven’t posted any blog links in a while, I have still been blogging. Whilst I don’t intend to write blogs specifically for this Tumblr, I will probably attempt to start posting links to my main blogging space whenever new things come out. I attempt monthly releases, although that’s subject to real life chaos, burnout and all that jazz.

SO, to mark the return of the Tumblr page, I figured I’d post a link to all the blogs I’ve made this year, so far at least. There’s two more still to come before year’s, and I’ll either post them individually or add them to this entry, depending on how lazy I get.

ALRIGHT HERE WE GO.

January 2022 - Marvel vs Cinema.

February 2022 - The Stickman Reviews: Pokemon Legends Arceus.

March 2022 - ‘All in the Thumbprint’: Why I Love Stop-Motion.

April 2022 - Top 10 Movie Needle-Drops.

Anees – World Café Live – Philadelphia, PA – July 28, 2022

Anees Shares His Positive Energy With Philadelphia Fans

I've written plenty of concert reviews now, but never have I felt as speechless as I am after seeing Anees live. The up-and-coming rap artist Anees performed in Philadelphia during his last week of his debut "Summer Camp Tour" on July 28 at World Cafe Live. Anees has been making a huge name for himself in the music industry, attracting millions of listeners from all over the world. This sudden success is without a doubt well deserved. 

A few weeks before seeing him live, I had discovered Anees singing his unreleased song, "Leave Me" on Tik Tok. I instantly fell in love and had to know more. 30-year-old Anees Mokhiber was born in Washington D.C. He used to be an attorney, and as I found out during the show, he was miserable with this life. He made the risky decision to pursue his love for rap, and clearly it has paid off.

I did a deep dive on his socials and discovered his healing journey, spiritual manifestations and poetry. You can tell that he has grown into the truest version of himself since leaving his life of law. Since releasing his 2021 single "Slip," Anees has been blowing up on the charts, now claiming over three million monthly listeners on Spotify and over half a million followers on Instagram. His most recent single "Sun and Moon" hit fifty million streams on Spotify in only three months. Most recently, Anees gave a stunning performance of that single on Jimmy Kimmel Live! 

Anees' show opened with singer/songwriter Michael Minelli. His soulful, angelic voice and powerful lyrics filled the hearts of everyone listening. I don't normally see crowds show as much love and support to opening acts like they did for Michael. He exuded bright energy and confidence, which was contagious to everyone in the crowd. Michael's words spoke of love and empowerment, and he even gave a shout out to all of the "beautiful, hardworking, independent women" listening. We hear you Michael, and we love you too. 

Anees hit the stage with his band, sending powerful vibrations throughout the venue. Everyone in the crowd was cheering, singing along and dancing together. I could tell by Anees' reaction that his Philly fans had exceeded his expectations. Throughout the show, Anees repeatedly told the crowd that he had never experienced this much energy from his viewers. He told us that he was so exhausted from his tour, but we were uplifting him to keep going.

During Anees' performance of "Love is Crazy,” he invited a couple up to the stage. I knew exactly where this was going. Just two days before, the rapper had posted a couple getting engaged on stage during his show with the caption, "Anyone else want to pop the question at one of my shows?" Turns out, one Philadelphia fan had been interested. The man on the stage got down on one knee and proposed in front of the entire crowd! There wasn't a dry eye in the audience. Anees hugged the couple and continued singing his song to them. It was a really special moment for everyone to be a part of. 

Anees got deep with the crowd during his "Boba Thought" section of the show. This is something that Anees frequently posts on Instagram where he shares spiritual words of wisdom while sipping on his favorite treat. "If you're in this room you are safe to be exactly who you are," Anees told fans. "Life is full of beauty, but there's also a lot of toxicity and hate out there. This here is a safe space for you. You are exactly as God intended you to be at this moment." I actually shed a few tears during this segment of the show. Every word that comes out of Anees’ mouth sinks deep into your soul. 

The lyrics of Anees' songs embody positivity, love, relationships and spirituality. Anees' wisdom rang true to everyone in the uplifting words of "Drunk on Myself". He told fans, "I wrote this song when I was forgetting how to love myself." Self-love is a frequent message in his music, also mentioned in an unreleased song he sang to us. The refrain reads, "I love myself enough to get some space from you. I'm not the old me anymore. I'm not the old me, now I'm my own me." 

Anees has caught the attention of a lot of big names over the last two years, including Justin Bieber. In April of 2021, the two artists got deep on Instagram live after jamming out to "Slip." Justin lifted his arms up as the song came to a close and pronounced, "You can't not feel that bro, it's literally physically impossible." Anees' talent and positive vibes are magnetic to everyone in the music industry discovering his music. Justin is one of many hoping for Anees to find success. "I want to share your incredible music with everyone, everyone should hear it," Justin said on Live. 

Anees' way with words is unbelievable. Even when Anees wasn't performing his own songs during the show, he was freestyling or sharing poetic wisdom with his fans. He freestyled about Philly for a few minutes, and everyone was going absolutely insane. His last words before walking off the stage were, "This was the best show of my life Philadelphia, thank you." I will definitely be coming to see Anees on his next tour. I'm sure by then he'll be selling out huge arenas.

You’ll probably make the mistake of not storing it in your hold once, but it’s a nice idea to have the item based quests where things you’ve gathered mean more than just being stuff to equip. With the side missions, there are occasionally some that require you to use loot gathered and drop it off. At the end of game, each continent will be scored according to its size and the animals on it. Then move their animals to control the continents. Players can move the continents and reshape them. In each round, players will choose 4 cards in their hands, and play the cards in the action phase. Drifting Lands is a Role Playing game developed by Alkemi that can be.

Much like the guns there’s a large variety of moves, which does help in making the combat a little more varied. Drifting Lands is a game about evolution in Devonian Period for 2-4 players. Drifting Lands was the number PC game in July 2022 based on monthly active players. Skills are also available for your pilot and can be swapped in and out in the hub. Loot generally affects your ships and what type of weapons they have, how much damage you can take, and movement speed. You can use credits to buy more slots, but a couple of slots is generally enough, as you’ll either sell loot or turn them into blueprints of slightly weaker versions of the weapon. Once a mission is over, each item can then be deposited into your limited inventory space. Drifting Lands is a game about evolution in Devonian Period for 2-4 players. This is a shame because I liked the concept of making ships using loot obtained from the missions. Drifting Lands sadly uses everything a bit too much.

With more levels than is absolutely necessary, the challenge is how to design each level to feel unique in order to prevent reusing content. Sidescrolling shooters are intrinsically designed, but they purposefully have few levels in order to encourage replay value. View the individual games for more details. The fact of the matter is the sheer amount of levels is what ruins Drifting Lands. Title: Drifting Lands Soundtrack Edition Genre: Action, Indie, RPG Developer: Alkemi Publisher: Alkemi Languages: English, French Listed languages may not be available for all games in the package. To me, this is a very unusual oversight as it would have led to much more diverse level design.

Gradius for example tends to begin levels with a few waves of enemies, but then changes things up with… oh you know… land? It’s somewhat ironic that a game called Drifting Lands would be devoid of any land-based obstacles.

Purdue shows freezing price of veterinary school is possible – News

Dean Willie Reed

Purdue University photo by Kevin Doerr

Purdue University isn’t the only institution holding tuition fees, but it’s the longest with a decade, says Dr. Willie Reed, Dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine (foreground).

There are two ways schools can use to lessen the crushing student loan debt faced by veterinarians entering the world of work with loans that are double their starting salary, says Dr. Willie Reed, longtime dean of Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine.

“They are fixing tuition fees or increasing scholarships,” he noted.

Purdue University, under the direction of its notoriously frugal President Mitch Daniels, chose to do both, largely by freezing tuition fees on campus in West Lafayette, Indiana for a decade.

The goal – to keep veterinary studies and fees at around $ 20,000 per year for Indiana residents and $ 44,700 per year for non-residents with occasional fee increases – is to make education more affordable, especially for those who live in the state. At the Veterinary School, half of Purdue’s students are Hoosiers.

Like many in the profession, Reed views educational debt as the profession’s Achilles heel and supports his institution’s commitment to affordability. Across the country, veterinary education is more expensive than ever – between $ 19,616 and $ 72,292 per year in tuition and fees, depending on the student’s program and residency status – which presents most aspiring practitioners with a tough choice: abandon their dream career or risk piling up heavens – heavy debts.

Both are unacceptable to Reed: “Not preventing people from training – that’s so important.”

It is not easy. As Daniels pushes an affordability mission, Reed must balance an annual operating budget of $ 75 million while building a $ 108 million teaching veterinary hospital due to open in March. His efforts are backed by an annual government grant of $ 18 million that goes directly to the program. Revenues from the existing teaching hospital and diagnostic laboratory have increased, and fundraising donations have increased, “so we did it,” Reed said.

Many other veterinary programs aren’t that lucky. Government funding for higher education in general has not fully recovered from the cuts made during the 2008 recession that put pressure on student revenues, according to a report by government higher education funding released earlier this year. That means climbing lessons and more credits to pay for. The total student loan debt in the United States is $ 1.71 trillion among 45 million borrowers with average monthly payments of about $ 300.

“Debt is growing steadily, and it’s not just for veterinary medicine,” Bridgette Bain, associate director of analytics for the American Veterinary Medical Association, said at a recent online symposium. “US Student debt has increased by 100% in all disciplines over the past ten years.

“We certainly don’t see tuition fees being reduced,” she said.

Veterinary borrowers had an average of $ 188,853 in debt after graduation in 2020 – up 43% from 2011. according to AVMA figures. The highest individual debt among fourth-year students who responded to an annual AVMA survey last year was half a million dollars.

vns_bug_176x151_debt_series.20210625172011115.

The average debt for Purdue’s completed veterinary class last year was $ 145,336, Reed said, and 88% of the class received help from the university in the form of scholarships and grants.

“Universities are not rolling back tuition fees,” he said. “Ultimately, for Purdue, I think the best we could hope for has been keeping tuition down. It’s expensive to train veterinary students.”

Going to the Veterinary School at Purdue is cheaper than most of the 33 schools in the US that American Association of Veterinary Medical Colleges reported. Looking at 2020 data in the group’s cost comparison tool, four years of government research at Purdue cost $ 80,734, the cheapest option for Indiana residents and the cheapest program in the country when fees and cost of living are factored in. For non-residents, the program was ranked the sixth cheapest option over four years, with tuition fees of $ 180,089; $ 284,492 when cost of living is included.

A Cost of education card from the VIN Foundation, a nonprofit arm of the Veterinary Information Network, the VIN News Service, rates Purdue similarly.

According to data from AAVMC and VIN Foundation, only one US program charges its residents less: four years of veterinary class at North Carolina State University costs $ 78,479. The most expensive program in the country is at Midwestern University. The private four-year program in Glendale, Arizona alone costs nearly $ 260,000 in tuition. Add in cost of living and fees, and the cost to attend Midwestern could exceed $ 420,000.

When asked if Purdue’s shallow teaching piqued the curiosity of Reed’s colleagues in other programs, the dean replied with amusement. “You’d think I’d be inundated with questions from other colleges, but that’s not the case,” laughed Reed. “I don’t think I got a single question about how you do it.

“But that’s fine,” he continued. “We have a lot to be proud of. Our engagement office has secured millions of grants from the NIH [National Institutes of Health]. Our diversity programs are outstanding: In the last classes, 30% were underrepresented minorities. And there is no end date for keeping our tuition fees. I don’t see it going away that quickly. ”

Last month, Purdue University’s curators agreed to keep tuition fees frozen for the 2022-23 academic year.

Easier said than done

Tackling the student debt crisis was cited as a goal of a new veterinary school, the University of Arizona College of Veterinary Medicine, in its early stages of development in 2016 The program opened in August last year with 100 students, making it the 31st veterinary school in the country. Rather than following a traditional four-year calendar, the University of Arizona curriculum is condensed into three years, including summer, which ostensibly saves students time and money.

College officials initially aimed for tuition fees to be around $ 28,000 per year. They later found that this wasn’t financially feasible, soThe Arizona Board of Regents set tuition fees significantly higher: $ 45,000 per year for residents and $ 70,000 for nonresidents.

Dr. Julie Funk, who was hired as dean of the program in 2019, says she wishes she could do more keep student costs down, relying on divestments in higher education by state legislatures across the country, including Arizona. With little government funding other than a $ 8 million investment in 2016 to develop the college physically Institutions, the program relies heavily on tuition fees and start-up support from the university.

“The way we have our tuition fees, it’s a model that allows us to get from a startup to a break-even point between seven and ten years,” she said, noting that prices reflect the cost of resources Required for Starting a Business Veterinary College.

“To be honest, we have only just started generating sales,” continued Funk. “It’s like any other company. The university had to raise funds from other initiatives and invest in college, which we appreciate. But we also have to cover the cost of a veterinary college. That includes the cost of the faculty.” , Staff, student resources, facilities and animals. “

Funk came to Arizona from Michigan State University, where she served as Assistant Dean of Professional Academic Programs and Academic Achievement. In that capacity, she had a seat on the ring at the Economics of Veterinary Medical Education Summit, better known as the Fix the Debt Summit, the 180. pulled Attendees on the MSU campus in 2016 Brainstorm ways to reduce Student debt.

A common goal was set at the summit to reduce the debt-to-income ratio from 2 to 1 to 1.4 to 1 through a combination of measures, including obtaining interest waivers on student loans, Curb excessive student debt, increase staff salaries by 10% and reduce academic spending by 10%.

In many schools, however, enthusiasm for the initiative seems to have waned. “Paying off the debt,” said Funk, “is tough and very complex.” Many in academia are focused on government allocations and fundraising, maintaining accreditation, staffing concerns, and running a program amid the COVID-19 pandemic. You just don’t have the bandwidth to fully address the problem, she said.

“I don’t think people care,” said Funk. “I think it’s because there are no quick and easy solutions. I think there are some places where we’ve started initiatives, but other things are much more difficult. Certainly just the cost of veterinary training. ” “

The focus, she said, is on finding ways to cut overheads and invest in students.

“We’re really trying to use existing resources on campus so it’s not all de novo design and development, and the other part really focuses on the results of the first day so students are instantly productive in the field,” said Wireless. “Right now we can do that.”

Global Market Analysis July 1, 2020

Recent market conditions:

In the foreign exchange market, the US Dollar Index rose to a maximum of 97.77 and then came under pressure to close at 97.33.

For non-US currencies, the EURUSD closed slightly lower than 1.1233; the GBPUSD recorded a rebound to yesterday’s high since closing down on the 4th, closing at 1.2399; the USDJPY surged up to 107.91; NZDUSD and AUDUSD closed moderately up about 40 points at 0.6452 and 0.6902; USDCAD fell back with resistance and recorded a decline of more than 0.6% at 1.3574; USDCHF basically gave up yesterday’s gains and closed at 0.9471.

The precious metal market demand is heating up again. Spot gold rose above the 4-day high and recorded a maximum of $1785.72. As of the close, it was reported at $1780.30 per ounce. Spot silver recorded an increase of more than 2% and closed at $18.17 per ounce.

In the oil market, API crude oil inventories in the United States recorded a decrease of 8.156 million barrels and the largest decline since 2019 in the week to June 26, which was much better than the expected reduction of 950,000 barrels. US crude oil continued to stabilize and recorded US$39.70 per barrel.

Recent key events:

The basic wording of the Powell and Mnuchin hearings will remain unchanged. In the future, the PPP plan may be restarted and the threshold of the Main Street loans lowered.

At 00:30 Beijing time today, Fed Chairman Powell and US Treasury Secretary Mnuchin gave testimony to the House of Representatives Financial Services Committee on the “Bailout Bill.” Powell once again emphasized the uncertainty of the economic and employment prospects caused by the new coronavirus pandemic. As companies continue to close down, the US GDP growth rate in the second quarter fell to hit a record, and more and more Americans will face the unemployment crisis. Today, the epidemic is getting worse in the US. According to the latest data, the number of new cases in California and Texas in the United States reached record highs and recorded 7,418 and 6,545 cases, respectively. With as many as 11 confirmed cases rebounding and announcing a delay in restarting the economy, the US job market remains highly uncertain.

In view of this, Mnuchin said that he may provide additional support to industries that are severely affected by the epidemic. These industries mainly include manufacturing and service industries. Although the initial value of the June Markit manufacturing PMI announced last week shows that the contraction rate of US business activities has slowed down, the deterioration of the epidemic may bring new impact to the economy again. Therefore, Mnuchin also pointed out that the two parties may reuse the PPP fund, which is expected to be approved by the end of July.

On the other hand, Powell also mentioned that the policy measures introduced earlier have been relatively successful for the temporary economic recovery.

We can suggest some too Ways to Use Your Child’s Tax Credit Reviews, give details on how you could Receive your payment and tell you how to say it Thousands of dollars back on childcare costs. We will continue to update this story as the IRS releases more information.

What are the IRS Child Tax Credit Portals and Other Online Tools?

Here’s how the IRS online tools help parents with eligible dependents according to the IRS:

An online tool can help you determine if you are eligible for child tax prepayments.

A nonfilers portal – now open – allows you to provide the IRS with basic information about yourself and your loved ones when you normally would not have to file a tax return.

A second online tool – what the IRS calls the Child Tax Credit Update Portal – is coming out before July 1 and will allow you to opt out of prepayments and receive a payment in 2022 instead. The IRS said that this portal will allow you to check the status of your payments and update the IRS with your current information.

How do you use the filer-free login tool?

The child tax credit “Non-filer Sign-up Tool”, which is now open, is a possibility for those who do not have to file a tax return in order to provide the tax office with basic information about their relatives. This tool can be used by families who have not filed or do not intend to file a 2020 tax return and who need to report eligible children born before 2021 to the IRS.

The Nonfiler tool allows you to electronically file a simple tax form with the IRS that contains enough information for the agency to determine your family’s eligibility for child tax credit prepayments. Do not use this tool if you need to file a tax return but have not already done so.

To use the tool, families must have a primary residence in the United States for more than half of the year.

To register using the Nonfilers tool, parents should have their personal information on hand, including one E-mail address, social security numbers for numbers relatives and a bank code.

3. On this page – labeled “E-File Your Tax Forms” – enter your Adjusted Gross Income, or AGI, and electronically sign the form. (Learn more about it here.) When you’re done, tap the Next to E-File button to submit your information.

There is no limit to the number of children parents can receive credit for as long as they and their loved ones are eligible.

With the update portal for child tax credits, you can refuse receipt the monthly child tax credit. This means that instead of receiving monthly payments of, say, $ 300 for your 4-year-old, you can wait until you file taxes for 2021 in 2022 to receive the lump sum of $ 3,600. You may want to opt out because you expect your circumstances to change – or if your family is saving up for a big deal next year.

What online resources will be available in the next month?

This summer, taxable families can use the portals to report changes in living conditions since the last tax return, such as: Change in income or Custody status. For example, if you are making less money this year, you should update the IRS of these changes to help you understand the correct child tax credit.

If you had or has a new baby this year, it is important that you report this to the IRS so that they can receive your payment of up to $ 3,600 for this child. The same applies if you have adopted a child or a new dependent child has been added since the last tax return.

If you have full custody of your child, you are also the parent who will receive the money for your child. Note that Shared custody parents not everyone will receive a payment. This is important for domestic violence survivors, Nina Olson, executive director of the Center for Taxpayer Rights, shared during an IRS supervisory hearing.
