Cornpop?

If legit... The Saw movies used to have trailers that had kills in it that wasn't in the movie... But for this type of movie, it would be difficult to make a decent trailer for people to want to see the movie and make it spoiler free...

Glen Powell plays the role of Ben in Wright’s The Running Man, with Colman Domingo (Candyman), Josh Brolin (Weapons), Lee Pace (Bodies, Bodies, Bodies). and Katy O’Brian (Love Lies Bleeding) also starring in the film.

Casbah?

Yep... I doubt he will be first ballot (though he probably should be), because of the "cheating" allegations...

Cosby?

Where my wife teaches, the school system doesn't require to tell parents if their child wants to go by a different name than their death name (she teaches in middle school - 7th and 8th grade)... A nickname like Joe, instead of Joseph, won't raise any flags... However, if a child wants to be call Marion and their death name is Andrew, what will happen during correspondence if the parents aren't notified by the school? A teacher calls this individual Marion constantly in class, but the first email to a parent about a problem academically, there will be hell to pay (pointed at teacher), if one forgets and says Marion in the email instead of Andrew... Most administrations around here always agree with the parents, so that teacher would either get reprimanded or fired because of a stupid slip like this...

You're joking, right?

I guess they like be opaque as possible... https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-bls-pick-hints-halting-170534520.html President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics is floating the idea of suspending the monthly jobs report in favor of less-frequent quarterly data published by the statistical agency. E.J. Antoni said that BLS should halt issuing the reports — which are widely relied upon by economists, the Federal Reserve, Wall Street and other businesses to gauge the state of the economy in close to real time — until its methods can be improved to limit subsequent revisions. “How on earth are businesses supposed to plan — or how is the Fed supposed to conduct monetary policy — when they don’t know how many jobs are being added or lost in our economy?” Antoni said in an interview with Fox News Digital released Tuesday. “Until it is corrected, the BLS should suspend issuing the monthly job reports but keep publishing the more accurate, though less timely, quarterly data,” said Antoni, who is currently the chief economist at the conservative Heritage Foundation. Such a change would almost certainly unnerve markets, and it is unclear what criteria BLS would need to meet to bring those monthly reports back online. The Fox Business report said the interview was conducted Aug. 4, before Trump’s announcement naming him as the nominee to serve as BLS commissioner. “Our Economy is booming, and E.J. will ensure that the Numbers released are HONEST and ACCURATE,” the president posted on his Truth Social account Monday evening. “I know E.J. Antoni will do an incredible job in this new role.” Trump fired the sitting commissioner, Erika McEntarfer, earlier this month after the employment report for July included unexpectedly large revisions for the two prior months — wiping away more than a quarter-million jobs, a sizable chunk of the growth under the early part of Trump’s first year back in office. Trump alleged without evidence that those numbers, as well as previous BLS data published under her tenure, were manipulated to damage Republicans. Administration officials and Trump-friendly economists like Antoni have separately tried to explain McEntarfer’s ouster as a matter of competence and ensuring trust in the bureau's work. "The fact that you consistently have large downward revisions means that there are other things wrong with your models and methodologies," Antoni told Fox Business. "Statistical assumptions that may have worked fine before Covid no longer work in today’s economy and therefore need to be revised." However, Antoni’s comments will surely come up in the Senate confirmation process.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj0yy3e6z4zo AOL is shutting down the dial-up service that introduced homes across the US to the internet. The firm's dial-up offering connects to the internet via a phone line and currently only exists in the US and Canada. Launched more than 30 years ago, AOL dial-up was known for its chirpy whirring start-up sound, but it has long since been replaced by faster alternatives. Fewer than 300,000 people in the US reported having only a dial-up internet connection, compared with more than 300 million with broadband service, according to 2023 government estimates. "AOL routinely evaluates its products and services and has decided to discontinue Dial-up Internet, " the company said in a notice to subscribers in the US and Canada on Friday. The service will no longer be available in AOL plans as of 30 September, the firm added. "Thanks for the memories RIP," wrote AOL co-founder Steve Case, who presided over the firm's growth in the 1990s. The company was known for luring customers by mailing them free trial discs and at one point claimed ownership of nearly 40% of the time that Americans spent online. AOL, which merged with Time Warner in 2000 in a deal widely deemed disastrous, boasted more than 30 million subscribers at the end of 2001. But its lead had already started to be eroded, as broadband offerings from rivals started to gain traction. As early as 2003, obituaries for dial-up service had begun, as in a Wall Street Journal article that declared: "It's official. Dial-up is dying." In the UK, AOL was toppled from the top spot as internet service provider in 1999. It then sold its UK arm in 2006. Time Warner spun off AOL in 2009. It was acquired by Verizon in 2015, which saw value in its mobile technology business and later merged it with Yahoo. Today, AOL and Yahoo are owned by Apollo Global. ---- I would have thought this was done a while ago...

That was my first thought... Both sides of the aisle tweaks numbers to their liking to make their side look good and the other side look bad... Just give the numbers and try to fix it if they are low or try to improve it even more if they are high...
