My Fantasy Basketball Draft Algorithm (Video Example / Explanation)
2023.03.28 09:43 DeathReaper130 My Fantasy Basketball Draft Algorithm (Video Example / Explanation)
Hello All,
I made a post a while ago talking about how I created a fantasy basketball draft algorithm which would essentially help me in drafting my team. For reference to my earlier post, here's the link if you want to check it out:
https://www.reddit.com/fantasybball/comments/11ycprf/reflecting_on_my_custom_algorithm_generated/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 I wanted to make a post showing a brief description / explanation of how my model works. In order to do this, I've made a video regarding a simulation of a fantasy basketball draft using my algorithm. The video is a little long so I had to make it into a YouTube video in order to be able to share it and here's the link to it if anyone wants to check it out:
https://youtu.be/mgEQe4tHsCQ Couple Notes About The Video:
1) There's no audio/sound of me explaining things unfortunately, just a screen recording of how I use my algorithm to make the picks since I'm not too familiar with making videos and all that. I'll be explaining briefly how it all works below so hopefully that can give some context when watching the video above.
Note: Also if you have trouble seeing the video or it may be a bit blurry, try raising the quality of the video to a higher quality. Sometimes, I've noticed the video being shown in a blurry quality from the get go so changing that to something higher makes it easier on the eyes to see.
2) In my video above, I'll only be sharing one screen of my algorithm, which is the actual screen of what my algorithm shows as an output. Unfortunately, I won't be sharing any of the extra / background stuff in my algorithm such as formulas, rookie rankings, player potential trends and etc as that's more of the research and analysis which I've done personally. I've also made a couple of changes to some stuff to have some things hidden in my algorithm so letting everyone know.
Explanation of the Video:
1) The first thing you will notice is that I start of the video by randomizing my draft order and my draft pick which I will be simulating. So in this case, my algorithm is focused towards a 9 Cat 10 Team league as that's what my fantasy league's play style was originally and so that's what my simulation in the video above will be based upon. So in this case, I have my draft pick number randomized and I have a list of how the draft goes based on which player goes which pick randomized as well. I did my best to have it randomized as reasonable as I could to player draft ranges to make it as similar to an actual draft as I could.
2) Once I have my draft pick and draft order set, I have it kept on the side as a frame of reference so it can be seen how an actual draft would be like. After I've gotten the randomized draft list, that will be the order which players will be picked in this draft simulation. Every time until it's my pick / turn, I will be going down the list and marking each player in the order which they are drafted. I'll mark each player as drafted on both the draft order reference list with a small "x" noting they've been drafted and in the "Still on Draft Board" column so my algorithm knows which players are either taken or still available. The capital "X" is what I use to mark my picks so I can keep track of them as well on the list.
3) The columns on the left most with titles "Rank", "Player", "Position" and "Team" are not my algorithm's rankings. Rather, those are what the Yahoo Pre-Draft rankings were. This is the list which I will be following by as the base draft order as the Yahoo platform was what my fantasy league was drafted on so that's what we would have seen order wise as we entered the draft. My algorithm has it's own different pre-draft rankings for the players.
4) Moving on to more the central side of the algorithm, the upper part is where I input my players' names that I've drafted so that my algorithm can keep track of how my team is looking so far.
5) Scrolling a little down from that, you'll see an area which shows my algorithm's suggested pick (left one) and my algorithm's expanded pick (right one). So in order to understand this, you'd need to see first the two sections titled "Yahoo Next 10 Picks" and "Algo Recommended Options". The Yahoo Next 10 Picks section shows what are the next 10 available picks on the draft board according to the Yahoo Pre-Draft Rankings. The Algo Recommended Options section shows what are the the algorithm's next 15 players which could suit your team the best. Furthermore, the Algo Recommended Option also helps to identify reach picks which have more value than current players on the board (which you will see in the video). Therefore coming back to the picks section, the "Algorithm Pick" section will show the next best player suited for your team according to the Yahoo's Next 10 Picks Section. The "Algorithm Expanded" section will show the next bit player suited for your team according to the Algo Recommended Option section. I take both of these into consideration when choosing who to pick when it's my turn. Under each of these two picks as well, any notable injury risks will be listed for players who my algorithm thinks has a risk (the formulas or statistics for showing how this is derived will not be shown in the video). Another thing to note is that all the stats projections you see in the Yahoo Next 10 Picks and the Algo Recommended Options sections are all projections which my algorithm made so that's interesting to keep a track of in the video if you're interested in that.
6) Finally, on the more right hand side of the screen when I scroll through, you'll see a small section which has different custom rankings for players based on the individual categories. This is one thing which I take into account when I have to make a choice when my algorithm decides multiple players could be a good fit for my team so at that point it's up to me to choose based on some specific criteria I have. The Score Column is what my algorithm uses to decide the next best pick for my team and that's what my algorithm and I take into account along with many other factors when we determine which player should be drafted next.
Hopefully, you all enjoy this and find this project / algorithm of mine fun and interesting to take a closer look at through my video above. If you all want to see more simulations with different draft picks and different draft orders, feel free to comment those below. I know I've given a lot of explanation of my algorithm above so if there's also any confusion on why I do what I did in the video or any other questions about my algorithm, feel free to comment those down below and I'll do my best to answer them all.

2023.03.28 06:17 5mashalot Brainstorming bad ideas to fix the RSS healer issue
Wall of text warning.
These are not all changes that i want, i just thought i'd write down absolutely everything that came to mind.
please comment to add any suggestions i may have missed, thoughts on the ones i have, call me an idiot, anything.
E: explanation of what the suggestion is +: pros -: cons 0: pros or cons, you decide
- Dampening changes: 1.1) remove it +: healers don't constantly fight a losing battle 0: cc chains are basically required to win -: games last forever 1.2) replace with damage dampening E: all damage starts globally decreased, slowly increases +: heals always impactful +: no more oneshots in the first few second -: would need to adress healers whose healing is based on damage -: most games end in instakills 1.3) replace with hp dampening 0: similar to damage dampening 1.4) replace with mana regen dampening +: healer spells always impactful -: need to rebalance healers around mana 1.5) replace with CC dampening E: cc starts shorter, lenghtens as game goes on 0: not sure what this would actually accomplish
- changing a healer's role -: messes with the 2 dps + 1 heal formula that has been a staple of wow arena forever. Hard to predict, guaranteed to make many people mad 2.1) turn healers into support E: instead of just healing, supports would have different roles. Some might CC a lot, some might give mobility, stealth etc. +: would diversify healers +: allows healers to affect the game more in different ways -: unrealistic, as the game is designed around PVE -: hard to balance 2.2) 3v3 dps shuffles E: if there are too many dps in queue, throw 6 of them in a shuffle. Add some survivability modifier in such lobbies, to make sure games don't end instantly +: basically guarantees instant queues for everyone 0: do you like prot pala lobbies where you get no healing? That's basically what this is -: realistically impossible to balance alongside traditional 3v3 2.3) remove healers from pvp -: no 2.4) AI healer E: a lobby would either have 2 AI healers or none. No need to make humans compete against bots. +: basically guarantees instant queues for everyone -: difficult to implement -: makes game feel less alive -: people would inevitably rage when they lose due to an AI's mistake
- extra rewards for healers +: very simple -: probably not enough -: people may feel forced to play healer although they don't like it 3.1) honor, conquest -: becomes useless at a point 3.2) BOA honor, conquest +: great for gearing alts 3.3) cosmetics and vanity items 3.4) inflate rating for healers
- no changes E: Why fix what isn't broken? Well, "isn't broken" may be an overstatement, but the point is, solo shuffle is very successful. If a rework fails catastrophically and ruins the mode, it would be terrible for pvp. -: the risk really is minimal if changes are properly tested and consulted with the community +: then again, this is blizzard. Though they have shown some willingness to listen lately, it's far from certain they would do a possible rework right

2023.03.28 05:38 Affectionate-Meat-98 Time for another Sciuridae Day Fact! This Time: How long do 🐿Baby Squirrels🐿 take to mature?
| Time for another Sciuridae Day Fact! This Time: How long do baby squirrels take to mature? Most Squirrels mate once to twice a year and, following a gestation period of three and half to six weeks, give birth to up to 6 kits (for most species); but number of offspring in the average litter varies by species. The young are altricial* with most species seeing the female look after any young alone. Development varies by species with some varieties of chipmunks fully weaned & independent at six to ten weeks while some fox and grey mothers will continue to care for young as late as 6-8 months. Most species of squirrels are not considered fully adult until they reach the age that most begin actively breeding which is usually around the end of their first year (though most physically become sexually mature at around 6 months old-but as early as fifth month and as late as eighth month for our Eastern Greys). Even Chipmunks that are living fully independent of the mothers by 8-12 weeks LATEST usually will still wait until about one year old to begin breeding generally. Squirrels are born pink with no eye slits visible & ears that are sealed flat to their heads. At birth, kits are completely helpless, blind, deaf, & are unable to regulate their own body temperature. Usually a mother squirrels, like Eastern Greys, are complete workhorses all throughout their pregnancy, and in those few short weeks of gestation a typical mom builds 3-5 new dreys and works on stockpiling enough food at EACH nest site for herself and her entire litter for up to 5/8 months. All of her incessant working usually means that by the time she actually delivers her kits she can usually stay in her drey pretty much 24/7 for up to 10-14 days. During that first week her kits only start off weighing around 10-15 grams (0.35-0.5 oz) for Eastern Grey Squirrels or 18-25 grams (0.63-0.88 oz) for Fox Squirrels. During the first days each kit will only eat as little as half a milliliter of milk per serving but some species have been observed to latch as frequently as every 15-60 minutes so an Eastern Grey can easily gain 10-40 grams (0.35-1.41 oz) in their first 6/7 days of life! …. I know! ?, right? By the end of a kit's first week the baby will begin to have visibly noticeable physical changes. The first noticeable change is usually soft fur beginning to form around the mouth and nose at about 5 days old. After 1 week old the litter’s skin starts to appear more colored because fur is beginning to grow in. A photo that was displaying “exact coloring” would show the Eastern Grey kits as a grayish pink color. As the week progresses deeper coloring will begin to show on heads and backs, eye slits will develop to becoming apparent, and the ears begin the process of opening by coming away from head slightly. By the time the litter is 10-14 days old mom will still be nursing fairly constantly around the clock realistically but she will leave the drey 3/5 times a day for up to 45-60 minutes total to replenish her fluids and collect food from a nearby stockpile or forage for a few moments. Grey Kits can gain 15-50 grams (0.53-1.75 oz) in their second week of life so they weigh up to 60-80g (2.11-2.82 oz) by 14 days old. By 2 weeks old, an Eastern Grey Kit has noticeable fur. The coats are sparse but starting to become evident if you look closely. At 14 days eyes are still closed but you might begin to see a small slit as they begin to open as the weeks progress. The third week of life will see the litter's ears begin to move away from the head while nails and whiskers grow in. Even by the end of the third week the kits won't have teeth yet. The third week will usually see the kits finally slowing down on nursing a bit so they usually are only nursing every hour or two instead of up to every 15-20 minutes that they can in the beginning but in doing so the weight gain for an eastern grey is usually around 10-20 grams (0.35-0.7 oz) for an average weight of 70-100g (2.47-3.52 oz). By 3 weeks old a litter will have short fur everywhere except on the belly. Between 21 and 35 days old the lower front teeth will start to emerge while the ears begin to actually open (instead of just pulling away from the body to unfold) and the smooth gray fur on the baby’s body continues to grow as the tail hair will begin to noticeably overtake the body fur and be visibly coming in longer. White fur will start to form on the belly and legs with the last places to remain hairless as the underside of the tail. By day 28 for an eastern grey the kits have probably gained 10-40 grams (0.35-1.41 oz) each for an average weight of 80-120 grams (2.82-4.23 oz) The Eastern gray squirrel’s eyes open and his top teeth being to emerge during its 5th & 6th week of life. At this age the kits will be sleeping a lot still but they will also lying down while observing things or crawling on all fours; but they still will be exclusively nursing. They drink significantly more and less frequently so mom is leaving the drey more, but usually she still is within site of her nursery. The mother squirrel begins bringing things back to the drey for her litter to teeth on & play with some time between the 5th and 6th weeks. The example eastern grey kits would weigh around 120-160 g (4.23-5.64oz) by day 35 At 6 to 7 weeks old, the litter will begin to sit up, with tails curling over their backs (in a classic squirrel pose). In the 6th week each squirrel is usually officially fully covered with fur including the underside of the tail. This is also the age that the tail starts to appear quite fluffy. At this age the baby will be much more active and begin spending less time sleeping. Usually at the 6th or 7th week is when mom begins allowing her litter out of the nest and when they begin trying solid foods in earnest. The litter will continue nursing as well but mom will usually begin providing a variety of foraged items to try as well and kits are weighing 160-250g (5.64.8.8oz) by day 42 After that point that same patterns of more time outside of nest, more foraged food & less nursing, and mother gradually leaving longer will continue until they are fully independent. The mothering can vary wildly by the individual baby & the particular mother in addition to the species at this stage. For Tree Squirrels like our Eastern Grey example one mother’s litter might all be fully weaned by 10-15 weeks or she might have had enough and decide to force weaning. Generally MOST experienced mothers will care for kits that will wean themselves anywhere between 15-25 weeks and many for several weeks to a couple of months after that weaning. Regardless of it being an overworked first time mother who’s left 12 week old babies that no member of litter has voluntarily stopped nursing from or a other extreme mom who has stayed until her kits are practically 8 or 9 months old the next step is usually the same. The mother actually leaves the litter in one of her well constructed & well-stocked dreys after she’s shown them the local stockpiles and SHE moves to another of her dreys. She may never return or she may visit daily to periodically until the kits of that litter have built their own dreys elsewhere and are no longer in that nest. Most kits actually end up needing to run back home to mom’s pad on their first few forays at drey construction because it is a learned skill for a squirrel to make a sturdy, well-placed, nicely insulated nest in a safe location. If the first few tries are too drafty/leaky, poorly located and raided by unwanted visitors, or simply blows apart/falls so the squirrel will just go back to it’s nursery essentially. Many times a sibling will “cheat” a bit and just move in with a fastidious builder brother or sister for a while; especially when they are more towards the 6ish months old over 8/9. It’s not uncommon for siblings to hang together until they are practically ready to breed in many species. The exception to this is the colony squirrels like flyers and the ground squirrels that live communally. Instead of their mom moving and them eventually going they just join the colony more “officially” and frequently will even hang out with their siblings, moms, aunts, etc. For Varieties like tree Squirrels the females usually reside within around 2 miles of where they were born while most males will have a drive to travel far during their adolescent stage and are usually claiming a territory that is 2-10 miles from where they were born. That means that with 2 litters a years females can easily see their family tree can fill up tons of trees up to 20 miles away in 4/5 years even with most females staying so close to birth sites. Their territorial behaviors are one of the reasons certain more successful species are starting to be seen in areas where they pose a challenge to the other species of squirrels that were already in that territory. Especially for the rodent family I think that squirrels are probably by far some the most dedicated parents (except the Beavers that stay with parents for 2years) especially considering how fast rats and mice mature at a similar size. All that time is because squirrelling in the wild is actually partially instinctually and partially learned from observation and experimentation so it is always good to be sure you observe any fully furred “mini squirrels” you see outside from afar to be sure that they are eventually corralled by mom. If a baby squirrel EVER approaches you or climbs on you it is because it hasn’t seen mom in WAY too long and it needs help now. If the baby is still a pinkie/grayish but not fully furred the mom should recollect it within 15-30 minutes absolute max (usually less) as long as it’s warm and hydrated. Mothers don’t recollect cold babies as their instincts say it’s dead or dying already unfortunately. Most pinkies that wiggle out accidentally or kits wonder off as tweens essentially belong to very devoted mothers that will gladly take them back if given a fair opportunity to (unless there is visible injury); so it’s always best to give such an awesome parent the opportunity to recollect their baby as the very first step if you ever find yourself encountering a squirrel kit that’s had a problem. Bonus Facts *Altricial young means that young are born helpless to the point of not having Sight, Hearing, or Ability to Regulate Temperature So while you're out and about on these lovely days: be sure to toss an extra treat to your local squirrels (& their moms) because they DESERVE the break!! FYI: It takes a CRAZY amount of energy to mature from a newborn pinkie into that bushy-tailed wonder of your neighborhood and they deserve all the slack we can cut them ALL the time, but they genuinely need the free meals in Winter as any random mom might’ve delivered as many as six kits in her Autumn litter (that she’s possibly still trying to take care of now & has to done so for the entirety of Winter). & Remember the MOST important thing: if you find orphaned or injured wildlife, (once you identify what you have found) Is that it is best to contact the appropriate rehabber immediately - while not offering ANYTHING to eat or drink (including milk/formula) as the incorrect choice of food/formula or feeding technique can actually be deadly unfortunately! *ALL that orphaned or injured Wildlife needs from you immediately is warmth (while you contact an experienced caregiver). You can do so through your local Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Commission, or the equitable department for your region (as baby animals are just as fragile as baby people - especially in terms of the need to receive the RIGHT care & nutrition in order to have a chance) &/or you can try ahnow.org website or app; but regardless of resource please definitely call and text every LOCAL contact (and LEAVE MESSAGES!) as everyone also has animals in care so it may take time to organize whom is the best contact for you in your area when rehabs work together well as a network to place babies accordingly. It is always BEST to seek the closest Rehab (to minimize travel); but it is still better to have to travel even a couple of hours to get babies into experienced hands. submitted by Affectionate-Meat-98 to squirrelproblems [link] [comments] |

Bonus Facts *Altricial young means that young are born helpless to the point of not having Sight, Hearing, or Ability to Regulate Temperature So while you're out and about on these lovely days: be sure to toss an extra treat to your local squirrels (& their moms) because they DESERVE the break!! FYI: It takes a CRAZY amount of energy to mature from a newborn pinkie into that bushy-tailed wonder of your neighborhood and they deserve all the slack we can cut them ALL the time, but they genuinely need the free meals in Winter as any random mom might’ve delivered as many as six kits in her Autumn litter (that she’s possibly still trying to take care of now & has to done so for the entirety of Winter). & Remember the MOST important thing: if you find orphaned or injured wildlife, (once you identify what you have found) Is that it is best to contact the appropriate rehabber immediately - while not offering ANYTHING to eat or drink (including milk/formula) as the incorrect choice of food/formula or feeding technique can actually be deadly unfortunately! *ALL that orphaned or injured Wildlife needs from you immediately is warmth (while you contact an experienced caregiver). You can do so through your local Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Commission, or the equitable department for your region (as baby animals are just as fragile as baby people - especially in terms of the need to receive the RIGHT care & nutrition in order to have a chance) &/or you can try ahnow.org website or app; but regardless of resource please definitely call and text every LOCAL contact (and LEAVE MESSAGES!) as everyone also has animals in care so it may take time to organize whom is the best contact for you in your area when rehabs work together well as a network to place babies accordingly. It is always BEST to seek the closest Rehab (to minimize travel); but it is still better to have to travel even a couple of hours to get babies into experienced hands. submitted by Affectionate-Meat-98 to IfoundAsquirrel [link] [comments] |
2023.03.28 04:26 Ruth-Willi How To Pick The Perfect Foundation
How To Pick The Perfect Foundation (beautyaal.com) Foundation is a popular beauty product that many people use to help even out their skin tone and texture. However, with the overwhelming amount of options available on the market, it can be difficult to determine which foundation is best for you. This article will provide an overview of how to pick the perfect foundation for your individual needs.
The first step in finding the right foundation is determining your skin type. There are several different types of foundations designed specifically for oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin. Once you have identified your own skin type, this will allow you to narrow down suitable products tailored to your specific needs.
Another factor when choosing a foundation is color matching. Choosing the wrong shade could result in having an unnatural-looking complexion that appears ashy or off-color due to too much pigment being added or subtracted from one’s natural hue. If possible, test multiple shades on your jawline during daylight hours before making a purchase decision; doing so allows you to properly identify which shade works well with your overall look. Additionally, when selecting a foundation, it is important to make sure it is formulated to match your skin type.
Finding The Right Shade
Finding the perfect foundation shade is a critical step in achieving flawless makeup. It can be particularly challenging because each individual’s skin tone and undertone are unique. A person’s natural complexion plays an important role, but it is also necessary to understand what undertones exist and how they play into the selection process.
Generally speaking, there are three categories of undertones: warm, cool, and neutral. Warm tones have hints of yellow or golden hues while cool tones tend to lean toward pink or bluish tinges; neutral tends to lack both qualities and appears more even-toned without any obvious color shift. Additionally, many people will find that their skin has different undertones in different areas such as the forehead versus the jawline or cheeks. To make sure you choose correctly, consider testing out several shades at a beauty counter before committing to one choice. This way, you can see which particular hue works best
with your own skin type and overall look. Once you’ve found a shade that looks good on your face, take note of its name so you can easily purchase it in the future if need be. With these tips in mind, selecting the right foundation shade should become easier over time as you experiment with different colors and formulas until you find your ideal match. As for choosing the right coverage level for your needs, that is another matter entirely.
Choosing The Right Coverage
Picking the perfect foundation for one’s skin can be likened to a chessboard – each person has an individual strategy and playing pieces. The key is to choose the right coverage that suits their needs. When considering what type of coverage is best, it may help to take into account how much time they have in the morning or evening to apply makeup, as well as what level of natural imperfections on their skin they want to be concealed.
For those who prefer a more dewy look, light-to-medium coverage foundations are ideal since they allow some degree of your natural complexion to show through while still providing enough color and coverage to even out any unwanted discoloration or fine lines, for people with dryer complexions, heavier formulas like creamy mousse foundations are better suited because these tend to provide more hydration than other types of formulations and offer fuller coverage over blemishes or acne marks.
For those looking for something in between light-to-medium and full coverage, there are tinted moisturizers that offer sheer yet buildable coverage that will leave you feeling fresh-faced all day long without appearing too heavy or cakey. Understanding the different formulas and textures available allows individuals to make an informed decision when selecting the most suitable product for them.
Understanding The Different Formulas
When it comes to choosing the perfect foundation, understanding the different formulas is an essential step. One of the most common distinctions between foundations is coverage levels, ranging from sheer tinted moisturizers to full-coverage concealers. However, while these two factors should be considered when selecting a foundation formula, there are other elements that must be taken into account in order to make an informed decision. To illustrate this point further, let us take a closer look at the various types of available formulas and what they can offer.
Soothingly, oil-free or water-based options provide lightweight hydration for those with sensitive skin who tend to shy away from heavier products. On the other hand, creamier formulas such as mousse or stick foundations allow for greater coverage and more buildable layers for a fuller effect. Similarly, liquid formulations come in varying weights—from thin liquids that blend easily on your skin’s surface to thicker ones that offer superior control over where you apply the product and how much you use. Additionally, many brands now also feature powder foundations which provide light coverage but still create an even complexion without feeling heavy or cakey on the face.
Given this plethora of choices, one may find themselves overwhelmed when trying to determine which type of foundation will work best for them; however, by taking into consideration their individual needs and preferences regarding coverage level and texture preference, they can narrow down their selection and pick out the right fit confidently. With enough research and experimentation with each kind of formula offered by makeup companies today, everyone can find a solution tailored specifically for them!
Conclusion:
Finding the perfect foundation for one’s skin can be a daunting task. There are many factors to consider, such as shade and coverage preferences, that may make this process seem overwhelming. However, with knowledge of different formula types available on the market today and an understanding of how to pick out the right color for your individual skin tone, even the most daunting makeup tasks can become easier. The key is to take time in selecting a product that works best for you while keeping in mind the desired result—a beautiful finish blended seamlessly into your natural complexion.
The act of finding the right foundation can symbolize taking control over our own beauty journey – choosing something that will enhance rather than mask our features. Taking care to get it just right reflects attention to detail and pride in one’s appearance; learning more about different products helps us explore what suits us best. In essence, picking the perfect foundation serves as an empowering statement: I am comfortable enough in my own skin to look good without hiding behind anything else.

2023.03.28 03:02 Zestyclose_Try_5352 Bottle fed baby sleep
Ftm here, my baby ( he just turned 9months today, 7 months corrected) doesn’t sleep through the nights, I know each baby is diff and expecting a full night of sleep isn’t the norm usually. Weve had a pretty rough routine from day one with few bad days and few good ones. He refused BFing very early on despite my constant efforts so we’ve had to switch to full time bottle feeding since month 5plus my supply dwindled to nearly nothing. Now he’s been eating two semi solid meals a day. He takes about 2-3 naps a day (minimum30 min naps to an hour between 7 am and 7 pm) . . He needs help falling asleep so requires us to either rock, pat or feed him before sleeping, sometimes a combo of some or all of them. It’s been rough on us so since I’ve been able to be on a long maternity leave, DH sleeps from 12 am to 7 am while I co-sleep on a large floor bed with LO in that time.
Everything I’ve read online about baby sleep has to do with EBF mamas so I’m kinda stumped here…my son sleeps for max 2 hour stretch each night followed by 45-60 min stretches, not quietly either… most nights he tosses and cries with what I perceive as some discomfort/nightmare and I’ll have to quickly either pat him or carry him, get up and walk around till he falls back asleep, only to repeat it when he cries again soon. He isn’t comforted with boob and hates being cradled like a baby so that’s out of the question. Sometimes it’s just gas but it’s not the case all the time. At times if I’ve taken too long to pick him up he absolutely loses it and I’ve to console the poor guy by walking and singing/shushing for up to an hour. Off late he’s not really hungry for formula in those hours either. (Has a bottle every hour from 8-11 pm and then a bottle while half asleep at around 1 am most nights)
He’s refused pacifiers as well. His demeanour in the day is great! Laughs and plays and is super social. He doesn’t like to be left alone for more than 10-15 mins and likes to be held like almost all the time but I’m guessing that’s normal for some babies at this age? He was in the nicu for the first two weeks of life so I think I’ve been very specific about not withholding any extra cuddles he wants. Tried Taking cara babies sleep training stuff when he was tiny but it didn’t feel like a good fit for us, and whatever other sleep training coaches I’ve come across or read up about haven’t really convinced me to try it out because I know he won’t be able to self soothe, I like being there for him so even just voicing it out (even just on Reddit) that we’re having a hard time makes me feel SO Guilty :(
Idk what to expect from posting here, feeling really sleep deprived on some nights like this one. I worry if I’m spoiling him or not doing enough esp when I read up on sleep training content or when extended family members who barely know us make comments on how CIO and Dr Spock from back in the day was the gold standard for baby sleep. Idk,I would appreciate to hear any other mamas (who have bottlefed babes) out here who may have similar stories. Or any mamas with older babies who went through this and have any tips or rationale as to what these constant wake-cries could be!

2023.03.28 02:23 cakeladybakes Toddler Formula?
Hi all! I'm new here.
My husband and I are both vegan, but our LO (10 months) has been on a dairy formula since birth. Everything else she eats is vegan. We have made a plan to get her fully vegan by her 1st birthday! Today we picked up some of Enfamil's Plant Based formula, but I know it's only recommend up to 12 months. Just wondering if there are any plant based toddler formulas y'all would recommend? I'm in the US.
Thank you!

2023.03.28 02:12 SQszt2gA Pragmatic Advice for CARS
Hi
MCAT,
Thank you for all the resources you gave me while I studied for my MCAT, I would like to offer some CARS advice that helped me in return.
The most important section for me on my retest was my CARS section. The first time I tested, I found that the more I tried to "game" this section, the worse I got at it, but I was also really uncomfortable with not understanding why I initially did well in my practice exams, to getting declining scores, to bombing by test day. The point of this post isn't to say that CARS can't be "gamed", I just think I found another set of tools for people who are interested. I have not received my score back yet, but my FLs were consistently 129-131 this time (this is 4 years later and including FL 4 & 5) and I wanted to put this out there for April testers, so please feel free to take this all with a grain of salt.
Please note: Top CARS scorers often post their test day strategies which are helpful, but *do not equate the finished product strategy with the process it took to getting there.* I can give my personal test day strategy if it turns out I did well in another month, but so long as you develop a system for noticing the below information, however you tackle it on test say can be up to personal preference.
I. Understanding the passages Personally, I think understanding the passage is even more important than question approach because the best case scenario for answering a question is reading the stem, and (without looking at the answers) knowing exactly what the answer is. This saves you the most amount of time, and it prevents you from entertaining the wrong answer for too long.
Top scorers often mention that at some point in practice, they notice a pattern in what kind of questions to expect while working through passages. I truly think that after doing enough passages, this can be subconscious and thus difficult to put your finger on, but I want to make an attempt at describing some of these patterns. First though, let me cover some general tools for understanding passages.
- Tool 1: Tone, author tone can be hyperbola, exaggeration, metaphors, flowery language, or lack thereof. You only really get tone questions when it’s very obvious or, when there is zero tone. I highlight tone words or sassy sentences whenever I notice them.
- Tool 2: Viewpoints, many passages will have many people speaking and being quoted, sometimes with only a subtle difference in what they’re each saying, or sometimes with a very large difference in what they’re saying. Keep track of these because odds are you will get a question asking you to differentiate them.
- Tool 3: The main idea. What did the author actually spend time writing about and why.
- Tool 4: The logical syllogism. Personally, I think this is the king of the MCAT and all sections. A logical syllogism is: A = B, B = C, and A = C. It is literally everywhere from the zeroth law of thermodynamics to pregnant virgins. Yes, when you read a passage, there will be examples, data, contradictory points…etc, but the central idea usually follows this formula. Example: Picasso worked hard to become childlike, Picasso believed that being a good artist meant tapping into that childlikeness, therefore, Picasso did not think himself a good artist until he tapped into being more childlike.
There are other tools but these are good to start with to assess passages.
Note, you don’t have enough time to use all the tools in depth for every passage, and not every passage type lends itself to all of these tools either.
It’ not like the below passage patterns are all of them, but I think these came up frequently enough to get their own categories:
- *Scientific Passages:* these should be the easiest because we get asked scientific questions in other sections. The assignment here, more often than not, is to understand the hypothesis, how the study design could be strengthened, what findings would contradict the passage, and how to extend the reasoning of the findings or hypothesis.
- *Philosophy passages:* These passages may have really complicated arguments or dense philosophical concepts. Surprisingly, I have found that these passages only ask for the most basic application of ideas, especially for really complex things. Personally, I think the main assignment on these is actually keeping track of viewpoints, the author’s main purpose, and the quantity of information given in support of different points.
- *Argument passages:* these are different from the above because they’re usually excerpts from an author who is advocating for some type of change or in defense of a position and the key difference is that these are written in much more plain language than the above—Which means that AAMC can reasonably expect you to either critique the author’s position, extend their reasoning, assess the quality of evidence, or ask what is lacking from their argument. I read these with the most scrutiny and really try to understand their logical syllogism, how are they building an argument.
- *Arts:* why do people write about artists, or art movements, or novels, or anything in art? I think, even if the author is writing about their favorite artist because they like them, the real reason is because that artist had something *different* to offer from other artists of the same time. The assignment here is to track CHANGE in paradigm. How did THIS painting/book/artist change the status quo? That means knowing what the status quo was before they came along (which, I think this is one of AAMC’s favorite questions because it’s indirectly implied) and then knowing how they differed from the status quo.
Just know, even if a passage mentions art, it could be an argument (maybe an art teacher advocating for change in art education). Even if a passage is talking about a philosopher, it might be about their life and not their philosophy.
For general tips in understanding passages:
- General Tip 1: For passages that don’t fit the above, try viewing passages through the lens of what their genre is trying to accomplish. For example, I am not likely (though possible) to get a question asking me to critique the argument being made by a passage about a 16th century artist who made innovative illuminated miniatures. I am much more likely to be asked whether I understood the context and historical value of that artist because that is the goal of the genre being written, so that’s where I put most of my attention.
- General Tip 2: Trust your gut. If you’re reading something, and it sounds weird, or it doesn’t make sense, *be consciously aware of it.* Either it doesn’t make sense and the AAMC wants you to pick up on it, OR, it’s out of scope for the exam, and you won’t be asked about it.
- General Tip 3: the reason why I think “highlight the main point in every passage, and main topic in every paragraph” goes wrong is because the medium is the message. The way an author writes something is part of what they are trying to say. If you use the same tool on every passage, ie, looking for only the main point, then you’re missing so much more information being conveyed. It’s a bit like watching a runway show and only looking at the models’ shoes. Yes, you’re probably going to get really good at identifying the differences in shoes or when they don’t even have shoes, but models’ are differentiated along many other things beyond their shoes. Similarly, passages can be differentiated along many other axes besides their main points (which are what the other tools are for).
II. Question types - General Tip 1: The bulk of your questions come down to individual understanding of the passage. The number 1 tip that helped me was covering the answers and guessing the answer before looking at them. This is because the AAMC likes awkward rephrases of the right answers and saying it in your head first means you’re less likely to fall for rephrases. That being said, I have noticed a few patterns in question types which could be helpful and are further below.
- General Tip 2: lets say you looked at the answers and now you’re stuck between two or three very similar examples after disqualifying the obviously ridiculous one. Why do answers sometimes sound so similar? (1) they are off by one or two words only (2) they are restating something in the passage that doesn’t answer the question (3) the wrong answers either comes BEFORE or AFTER the right answer. This is where the logical syllogism is really helpful. Like if I asked “according to the passage, what is the best education system for pre schoolers” and the answers are: A “Montessori because it provides students with the tools to have self efficacy at an early age”, B “Montessori because it has the best student scoring outcomes” or C, “Montessori because its students go on to become community leaders.” Well, answer A may be why B is true, but it’s a CONDITION for the answer and not the answer itself. Likewise, C is a CONSEQUENCE of the answer but still not the answer.
Okay, with those out of the way, here are some common question types and their solutions:
*Q1: I, II, III, or Roman numeral questions.\* These may be stressful because it’s basically three questions in one and asking you to scour the passage for details. It’s also stressful because you may worry about how permissive each of the answers can be and may think one tiny detail in an option that is otherwise right may throw off the whole choice.
Solution: identify the main point of the passage, and use that to filter down the roman numerals. The wrong answer(s) are contradictory to the question being asked via the main point. This has never not worked for me. Even in FL 4 there was a ridiculous question about an author who wrote about capitalism being celebrated in America and the roman numeral options were (I) was clearly correct (II) was antithetical and (III) technically fit the main idea, but was really absurd and was several logical jumps away from the passage. The correct answer was I and III.
I think this method works because the AAMC knows this question type can be a time sink, so following this method should help cut down on time.
*Q2: “What is the function of X?” “why did the author mention Y?”:\* look at what they’re talking about, identify the main point of the paragraph, and draw the relationship between them.
*Q3: Given blah blah blah in the passage, how does that reasoning apply to wah wah wah?\*
You may think “oh, I need to look at the answers to do this” and granted, there are some where you may but where possible, the key here is to find blah blah blah in the passage.
Go exactly to where it is, identify the basic skeleton of what they’re saying, then look at your answers.
You may also think to yourself, well this is an analogy question, so wah wah wah probably won’t contain the same content as blah blah blah. I did this a lot. Let’s say the passage was talking about how paternalistic healthcare in foreign countries can be, the question is “which relationship is most similar to the passage description of medicine and patients in third world countries” and the good answers are “a dad telling their kid to eat the vegetables because it is good for them” or “a teacher telling their students to complete their homework.” I would often pick the second one because I thought the first option was too on the nose for some reason since it’s literally a parent being paternalistic and since this is an analogy, it shouldn’t be so similar. That’s wrong. Once I started looking for an element of overlap in the actual
content of the analogy,
not just the skeletal structure, I started getting the 50/50 toss ups 100% correct.
*Q4: which of the following is/is NOT/is the BEST point/piece of evidence/whatever to prove [claim].\*
Solution: flip whatever the question stem is. This is not just to simplify it, I genuinely think the answers are written in such a way that its easier to see when you flip the answer choices around (ie, its much easier to disqualify incorrect answer choices this way than it is to qualify the correct ones)
Q5: Assumption questions, such as “what is implicit in the author’s point that [claim]”, “what assumption does the author make in saying [claim]” These were the hardest questions for me, but now they’re the most formulaic. An assumption is an unstated leg of reasoning. In terms of A = B, B = C, A = C, an assumption is when an author skips one of the first two steps. The solution is to, without looking at the answers, go find [claim] from the question and identify what two legs of reasoning must be true within the passage to make that claim true. For example, if the question is “what is implicit in the author’s claim about Matisse’s initial art collection.” Go find the claim, maybe it’s “Matisse was a breakout artist for his innovative use of color”. The legs for this claim may be “matisse used trippy colors” and “artists of his time did not typically use trippy colors”, therefore, Matisse was innovative compared to his cohort. Ask yourself which leg isn’t mentioned in the passage, and that’s your assumption.
Finally, for everything else, whenever you review and people say “keep track of your wrong questions and why all the answer choices are wrong/right” it’s sometimes hard because every passage is so different. It seems as if though you are trying to understand the reason you got the question wrong at either the broadest level (I just didn’t read closely enough!!) or narrowest view (well how was I supposed to know what Plato’s allegory of the cave really meant?!!).
So when you get something wrong, try viewing it through the lens of the logical syllogism and identify the relationship between the legs of A = B, B = C, and A = C and the question being asked. I think this was the right level view level to help me catch the above question type trends and may help you too
And like I said at the top, this may be useless advice until I get my official cars score back, so take it with a grain of salt. I just wanted to offer some concrete CARS advice that helped me in my FLs.

2023.03.28 02:11 Kind_Beautiful_102 NCT Hollywood might be a good idea, so it wasn't presented in the best way
NCT Hollywood might be a good idea, so it wasn't presented in the best way
Why i think this opinion is unpopular: Well... Ever since Nct Hollywood was announced by Sm Entertanment, the K community has received it with memes, and a lot of criticism of the project. Yes I am one of the few who is going against the majority, I am defending the Nct Hollywood project, but please understand my point and see that it is not such a strange thing, unpopular opinions is what this reddit is all about, so I feel that this is the best place to post it.
Well... I was surfing social media and I always follow kpop related stuff. Since 2020, one of the subjects that most caught my attention was the exotic project of nct hollywood released by sm entertaimnent, for those unfamiliar with the project, it basically consists of a kpop boygroup formed by western / american boys, the project was widely criticized on the internet , for being a somewhat different idea from what we are used to in kpop. Well... Firstly, I think we shouldn't underestimate a group that hasn't even launched or has defined members, that happened with Exo before their Debut and today it's a successful group. I think Nct Hollywood's formula can work. I've always followed American Boybands like Backstreet Boys, One Direction, Big Time Rush and many others, it was inevitable that I was attracted to BTS and other Kpop Boygroups, considering the recent success of kpop, and something I noticed is that the Mvs of kpop are much better produced than a-pop music videos: The visuals, the costumes, the choreography, the kpop mvs are more focused on the stage than the music itself, although I still find a-pop's vocals much better than kpop and lyrics, a-pop have better crafted melodies and have a bigger production budget, Kpop is still much better in the visual part of music videos, I believe this was one of the reasons why kpop has become a global phenomenon, the the public was missing the stage in a-pop, if we went to see for the American artists it is almost not modern anymore to release their video clips on YouTube, giving preference to Spotfy, the biggest musical numbers on youtube is being kpop. Kpop mvs are already influencing, even if indirectly, the music videos of American artists, sometimes I find myself wondering when this format change will arrive in the West. So I think the idea of Nct Hollywood is not bad, it just wasn't well publicized, maybe sm shouldn't launch it as a western kpop group, but an a-pop group in the kpop mold: with the style , the choreography, the visuals, the mvs similar to kpop, but still with the Western Pop title, so probably the reception would be much better and much more understood. Considering that the format of kpop boygroups are much more advanced, in my view, kpop groups are almost an industry, if we consider, the Lightiscks, dancers, visuals, the kpop is years ahead of a-pop in the conceptual and commercial part.

For example, some organizations that aim to promote exploration, adventure, and discovery, such as the National Geographic Society or the Explorers Club, share some similarities with the Hunter Association in terms of their goals and values. Similarly, some professional organizations or guilds, such as the Screen Actors Guild or the Writers Guild of America, share some similarities with the Hunter Association in terms of their role in supporting and advocating for their respective professions.
If we're looking specifically at organizations that are hired as problem solvers when no one else can solve a particular problem, then there are several options to consider. One example is the consulting firm McKinsey & Company, which is known for its expertise in management consulting and problem-solving for businesses and organizations. McKinsey has been hired by various governments, corporations, and non-profit organizations to tackle complex and difficult challenges, such as optimizing operations, developing new products, and improving efficiency.
Another example is the Crisis Management Team of the World Health Organization (WHO), which is response to global health responsible for providing rapid emergencies, such as disease outbreaks and pandemics. The WHO Crisis Management Team is made up of experts in epidemiology, public health, emergency response, and other related fields, and they are trained to quickly identify, assess, and respond to health crises around the world.
In addition to these examples, there are also many other organizations that specialize in problem-solving and are hired to tackle complex and difficult challenges, such as the Corporation, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. These organizations have a range of expertise and capabilities, and they can be hired to address various types Boston Consulting Group, the RAND of problems, from business challenges to social and environmental issues
If we are talking about organizations that are hired to handle conflicts and fighting, there are several options to consider. One example is private military and security companies (PMSCs), which provide military and security services to governments, corporations, and individuals. PMSCs are hired to provide a range of operations,including security, combat operations, consulting, and training of security forces. Some examples of PMSCs include Blackwater (now known as Academi) Aegis Defence Services, and G4S.
Another example is international peacekeeping organizations, such as the United Nations Peacekeeping Force, which is responsible for maintaining peace and security in areas of conflict around the world. The UN peacekeeping Force is made up of military personnel, police officers, and civilian personnel from different countries, and they are deployed to areas of conflict to provide security, protect civilians, and support peace processes.
In addition to these examples, there are also many other organizations that specialize in conflict resolution and management, such as the International Crisis Group, which provides analysis and advice on conflicts and crises around the world, and the Center for Strategic and International Studies, which provides research and analysis on global security issues.These organizations can be hired to provide expert advice and assistance on conflict-related issues, ranging from strategic planning to tactical operations.
. Similarly, the Hunter Exam in the series may be inspired by various real-world tests and competitions, such as the Special Forces selection process or the entrance exams for prestigious schools.
In addition, the conflicts and power struggles between various factions and individuals in Hunter x Hunter may be influenced by real-world political and social issues, such as war, corruption, and inequality

if you look you will see Even further back in ancient antiqueties you find all it over as well. Examples. Pneuma (πνεῦμα) is an ancient Greek word for "breath", and in a religious context for "spirit" or "soul".Greek translations of ruach רוח in the Hebrew language From Proto-West Semitic *rūḥ-. Cognate with Arabic رُوح (rūḥ).: /ˈruah In Islam, the Holy Spirit acts as an agent of divine action is seen as the intermediary between God and man and "the outpouring grace of God and the effulgent rays that emanate from His Manifestation Nephesh (נֶ֫פֶשׁ nép̄eš) is a Biblical Hebrew word which occurs in the Hebrew Bible. The word refers to the aspects of sentience, Adam "became a living nephesh." Nephesh when put with another word can detail aspects related to the concept of nephesh; with רוּחַ rûach ("spirit") it describes a part of mankind that is immaterial, like one's mind, emotions, will, intellect, personality, and conscience, as in Job 7:11 Shaktipat or Śaktipāta (Sanskrit, from shakti "(psychic) energy" and pāta, "to fall")refers in Hinduism to the transmission (or conferring) of spiritual energy upon one person by another or directly from the deity. Shaktipat can be transmitted with a sacred word or mantra, or by a look, thought or touch – the last usually to the ajna chakra or agya chakra or third eye of the recipient. In Hinduism, especially Shaktism (a theological tradition of Hinduism), Shakti (Devanagari: शक्ति, IAST: Śakti; lit. "Energy, ability, strength, effort, power, capability") is the primordial cosmic energy, female in aspect. Shakti represents the dynamic forces that are thought to move through the universe.

I'm sure there is more I missed of you know of any please don't hesitate to comment just a name is enough for me to go off of thanks in advance for any an all efforts to forward that endeavor of mine.
So I won't lie that some of this is based on real lifes mystical chi, chakra, ki, spirit , faith ,there's many more and wiki is a great source on the subject in regards to when an where specifics. So some of this is based off of my real life experience perceptions of the world Some is speculation I'll try me best to note the difference for easier understanding purposes
Now it is said in most ancient cultures with bad ass warriors being a main staple of said cultures development and legacies Top warriors have a certain code
This is not in dispute
If anything whats disputed is what the code is What is important to remember is tho they may have differed slightly in the end point is all top end martial masters seem to have one regardless.
Some ancient military records flat out describe some warriors doing and not just once but every time having unexplained ways of winning against numerous enemies at once over and over and over battle after battle after battle Point of fact most live to become old in seclusion often wrighting books Like the art of war, there's more but if you can't find the ones who lived it apart from those who didn't you stop reading now an save your time .
One would wonder in real life if lets say kuriapika s announcement of NeN to even fighting fields of all engaged would by the end the winner want said knowing to continue openly.
So in layman's terms ask yourself do you think the end of the succession war arc will end with the winner being a fan of open knowing of NeN being ok or not?
Likely it would be no as the odds of non nen users beating army's of NeN users.is .... Compared to say yes they did allow and promote open knowing of NeN for it not to become a myth this is how I think it went from discovery to open used as much as ever would be to secret and secluded passings of it's existence.
Now I know of a place in real life that is perfectly suited for a hidden in plain sight so to speak place for the number of ppl currently in world alive capable of using nen ,let's go off hxh chairman arc as number as example as it's easy, Housing, training, exam, practicing So in layman's terms
,like even a hisoka looking muther fucker could still check in as long as they didn't cause disturbance and could pay,
once alone out of sight in a elevator or some specific unique game console in a always gaurded room to make change there really is infinity ways with NeN I'm just saying it is the perfect front and like hunter association building ECT
The thing about it's location is particularly convenient for a lot of problems you'd have alot of other places one could almost say it's the perfect place. And it could be a Greed island kinda NeN system making it work Now I'm easily capable of seeing if some knew they would would go a battle tailored fighting style hatsu I can honestly say if it was like Ging taught me an then floated the idea of it being for all to come afters betterment and the greater good to have ppl make powers work in sync for such end results like a GI or Burj khalifa front for HA/hunter association headquarters cause I think that kinda shit is legit as.fuck but I know personally those who would be akin to killua mentality an thinking
In layman's terms it just practicality wise makes a lot sense something like this would be done for the means of access to those who undoubtedly find it thenselfs or through teachings of others ect, if ppl figured it out originally on there own others would inevitably do the same ,
Now there is just about as many legends and storys of places too good for it not to be NeN if in fact they did exist and did also do what is said Sometimes a big task researching enough to say for sure May be we.destroy more then we preserve as a species on average I do know I think there is some real top the list contenders for real life equivalent being real and I'll list them as examples but I want first to do one as a whole reason why I think "all the secrecy" today's times next first .....
So In layman's terms..... Sounds like a good public cover story for why everyone being like yo Netro why those bullets bounce off you bro wtf......
Now this is mostly speculation but at the heart of speculation is the experience of perceptions by who ever is doing the speculation that's why I did the layman's terms for this section first not last
In the middle of Africa is the congo Needless to say without getting into factually wise the horrible ness would allow for the training of say zushi not living horrible but comfy with wing training, one of the real life examples by the by, Because yes folks by comparison getting chopped up in your sleep as a daily occurrence with no not even a minimum but none at all justice system or the like to stop it in remote and no civilization has reached besides what the warlords who are there now Bring to do what they do unchecked in opposed fire power or even a electricity from generator or vehicle let alone guns right vs villages of stick hut fire in middle of camp walking an gathering for water an food still ppl.
I bring this up because In Africa there is ppl called hunters There word is dozo or dono Googling the three journalist deaths in africa causing uproar and demanding investigation for answers Should be effective Note the ppl who were hired as guides They literally are quoted as saying there magic will protect them from bullets harming them And they are a "association of ppl for hire" Again that's a direct quote from the locals who referred them as the ones.to get as guides inland without dieing all on top of they are called a hunter association by the locals they are also protected by bullets with magic ... Now after looking into these hunters I found that African has more or less two versions like a lot of places but it's not the normal north an south or east and west but the outer and inner African continent are vastly different. Like one most journalists don't even go to or just don't return from and it's ironic enough full of diamond so that on top of no technology to prove problematic and interesting enough the outside world at large with any real chance to stop this is in consensus it's not worth the fight If diamonds still flow out to be bought up resold ECT ect
Now let's say there is ppl in Africa who have lived far enough inland long ago and it more or less passed enough to continue which at worst really only takes one to teach another one
I'll relate this to sith in star wars in that if one real promising, anikin , student about to be acknowledged as master level good even tho they are real young type of prodigy, Has even one real bad thing happened, Anikin turns Darth Vader over being told his lover and kids just died at his friends and teachers hands right .
My point is anyone can decide to turn dark side because tragic unfortunate accidents If they happen to be like going to bring balance to the force prophecy level strong then who stops them When you have that nd the whole middle of a continent as your unopposed training ground in a place over head satalights are unable to effectively see with and a monopoly on diamonds to fund your wildest dreams What I wonder would be next World recognition as a world power perhaps A sufficient enough gesture of good faith to compose a reckless new threat with unknown capabilities like the changing of v5 to v6 maybe Maybe the guy running the shit in the congo is just considered by those who would be aging out of a game the obviously got the worst of this time around lucky not to be a world wide menace in person and still via underlings from the shadows of his growing empire.... Maybe it's really when they die the reign begins who knows.
In layman's terms that's my first with enough effort can be verified in real life existence as we speak
Zushi and wing
Rick wing Real life Kung Fu master google him I believe his master seen Bruce Lee Realized the unlimited potential but obviously lacking of.nen knowledge Think of when kuriapika has his license stolen and is taught NeN Rick wings teach found Bruce Lee in his exile from being a life long Chinese monk but losing his temper fighting at a no contact demo All when Bruce a fellow Chinese man was bragging I can beat anyone anywhere that I accept all.challanges with advertising on posters around his dojo n gyms as well in local n some natl news papers Also Bruce Lee only talks about.his fight with this guy in the papers.once ever And is one.of.the few who says he lost Albeit Bruce says he left so he tech lost but he is not a masochist and the guy didn't fight back just let Bruce punch him in the back of the head until his hand hurt as the guy kept stepping away Interesting Bruce who can one inch punch solid wood apart Couldn't even damage a guy enough to knock him off his feet enough to even stop is steady advance away from Bruce Think killua Fighting zushi then talking to gon after He says yea I won but towards the end there I lost my temper cause he wouldn't stay down and.i accidently way over did it I thought I killed him But I didn't even scratch him...Bruce would understand better then prob most humans ever that if he throws a say one inch punch at a human an regrets it so fast that his first thought is fuck I just killed this guy but then sees that in fact he did no damage at all.... Now what if quicker then anyone other then Bruce would be able to catch an understand he said something like I can teach you the secret your missing meet me later or whatever Bruce would understand it must be real Cause his punches fuck shit up normally Wong man jack was this guy's name a legit Chinese monk of Kung Fu his most accomplished student is named Rick wing who teaches in some secret area google.it Now bonolenov the dancing music fighter from the phantom troup who I think is the prince that killed his uncle king in Brazil and is the most accomplished copoeara maestro ever while also having a good reason to hate ppl I might add as his tribe really was killed off completely from industrialization But only after many including but not limited too the original slave owners and even the east india trading company tried and decided yea nah not worth it And they were ruthless as it gets Oh also this guy was kidnapped as a baby raised by priests new latin and cpl other languages an by 15 escaped made it back to Brazil an was such an accomplished warrior in battle quickly earning his way to the leader of the armies of his uncle king who up until he said I want to give in for peace an the nephew poison killed an took over to continue fighting instead was by all accounts great prosperity culture enriched loving community turned kingdom of what originally amounts to some run away slaves Thus all his speech of tribe being important and honored and the dance fighting style an also the well spoken learned mannerism of bonolenov IMO There's more like if you want to stretch further then I did with speculation but with a subject like chi magic esp faith spirit chakra ki Or even NeN what else is there yo

Could ging be an enhancer like bill
So hear me out We know going off Netro Ging is top 5 And it's really really rare for enhancer to do stuff for others not themselves We.never see hide not tail of gings true power just his mastery itself of Nen Like copy leorios after being hit He says he can more or less make his own use of someone's uses of nen if he is hit in the face with it to pariston then uses the power in a much better way but also says he had talked to him about it
He plays that show off your mastery of nen game making different animals and shapes with your aura around different body parts in a horse trick shot kinda manner and smokes all of paristons lackys in doing so on black whale
Kite admitted ging personally helped him come up with his crazy slots
So what if gings true nen power is to enhance someone else into having the best fitting for that specific persons optimal nen power
So like he uses his enhancer powers and two doing of cancer twin girl kids can nen masters of greed island forever now don't have to die
Like I can almost see him telling razor how after all there training he won't have to worry about being over run by the other pirates such as bobobob or what ever that fat sumo guys name was in GI arc that razor smokes
Then ging shakes his hand an razor awakens bam the whole team of Dodge ball is thought out after the whole now I'm not outnumbered was why razors power was what it was you see
It also explains why Ging is just so good with aura control he never had to water.down training efforts by doing what kastro did in order to die against hisoka in heavens arena
There is a "Father of archeology" who could be gings real life counter part
I'm not totally convinced the old captain of the boat in the first episodes isn't actually gings dad and Gon's grandpa.
The st Elmo's fire is of st elmo the patron saint of sailors and sailing. If one wanted to venture across a ocean to then charter the DC this would help.
Flinders Petrie who fits the description givin to gon by satotz after the exam is over with his broke arm right before they go to get killua

2023.03.28 01:42 _Revelator_ Clarkson's Columns: Live Formula One from Bahrain & Our Culture War is a Distraction
| Live Formula One? You’re better off watching it on the telly He flew by private jet to the Bahrain Grand Prix but got a better view from a sofa (in a palace) By Jeremy Clarkson ( Sunday Times, March 26) At the 1973 British Grand Prix I was in the stands at Silverstone’s Woodcote corner, which meant I was right there, in the thick of it, when Jody Scheckter’s Yardley McLaren put a wheel on the dirt at 160mph, spun into the wall and set in motion what was almost certainly the longest crash in Formula One history. From where I was standing it looked like cars were hurtling into the dust cloud and then coming out on the other side in component form. It was backwards Lego, but incredibly no one died. And only one driver, Andrea de Adamich, was injured. It took an hour to cut him out of his Brabham, and afterwards he decided to continue in the sport. As a commentator. Can’t say I blame the poor man. And me? Well, as my only sporting experience up to that point was playing badminton with William Hague, I was hooked. And I vowed I would go to as many grand prix as I could for the rest of time. A vow that lasted until, ooh, about 15 minutes after the restart. It was a good race, packed with incidents and excitement. Jackie Stewart spun off while trying to pass Ronnie Peterson, James Hunt and Niki Lauda had the first of many battles to come. And Peter Revson staged a masterclass, going on to win. But I saw about none of it. This is the problem with Formula One as a live event. You have to be very lucky to see an incident, and even if you do it’s usually over in a flash and there are no slow-motion replays to help you understand what caused it. This, then, is a sport that has only ever really worked on television. Jeremy with Red Bull’s Christian Horner There’s another issue too. When I go to Stamford Bridge, I want to see Chelsea win. But in F1 no one has ever really cared who gets to stand on the top step. And we’ve never really known the drivers because, unless they went on to be Michael Schumacher, they were just men in helmets with silly Eurotrash names. After 1973 I don’t recall going to another race until Monaco in 1985. And I missed that because I was in a police cell in Cannes. I went again a few years ago to stay on a friend’s boat in the harbour, and missed it again because I overdid it the night before and overslept. It didn’t matter, though, because watching F1 live was dull. And I didn’t care who won. And by this stage the cars couldn’t overtake one another because if you came up behind a competitor you lost your aerodynamic downforce and ended up going more slowly than the car in front. I still watched on TV every other Sunday, but deep down I knew it was a snorefest. And then along came Netflix and its hugely successful Drive to Survive series. This enabled us to meet not just the drivers but also the team bosses. I know that clever editing created storylines where there were none, and I know that series five is a bit “yee-hah” American, but suddenly we had goodies and baddies. And even more suddenly we found we were able to talk about the sport to our teenage daughters. My youngest had no interest in motorsport at all until Netflix came along. And now she knows Charles Leclerc’s inside leg measurement. And wants, more than anything in life, to meet Pierre Gasly. And, better still, the whole ethos of the sport has changed. Under Bernie Ecclestone and Ron Dennis and Frank Williams it was all about invisible tech. Small things. Tyre warmers and fiddly add-ons that made the car a millionth of a second faster round any given lap but which no one in the real world cared about. Now, though, the rules have been rewritten so that cars can dice with one another and an overtaking move can last for four corners or more. It’s a sport for the fans, not the sponsors and the backroom tech geeks. I’d like to say this is why I decided to go to the race in Bahrain this year. But there were other factors as well. For example, I’d had an invite from the crown prince to come and stay with him in his palace. And a neighbour offered me a lift over there in his private jet. These things can sway a man, which is why you probably saw me on the grid before the race talking to Martin Brundle. I feel sorry for the poor chap these days. In the past he’d rush up and down the grid before the action started, trying to grab a few words with the Eurotrash-helmet men that no one at home knew. But we do know them now, so there’s no point. And anyway he couldn’t find a driver even if he wanted to because, post-Netflix, the grid is now invariably filled to overflowing with bewildered celebrities who don’t know who he is. And who just want to meet that guy from Haas who swears a lot. I could see the look of relief in Martin’s eye when he found me because at last he could talk to someone who has stuck with F1, albeit from the comfort of my own sofa, since I was 13 years old. Someone who would list an obscure French Canadian as his favourite driver of all time and who could talk (very quietly) about why the Benetton that Ayrton Senna was racing against at Imola on that fateful day in 1994 was so unbelievably fast. Soon, though, Martin had to rush off to tend to his commentating duties and I had to head to the top of the infield tower, which I figured would give me a good view of the action. I was genuinely fizzing with excitement. Pumped. My first race in years, under the setting desert sun, surrounded by glamour and noise and the tingly anticipation of a first-corner crash. I dashed out of the lift, raced past the bar — I was that excited — and took up my place on the balcony as the starting lights went out. There was noise and soon a snake of cars whizzed past. And then there was less noise for a while, and then they whizzed past again and I realised I didn’t actually know who was where in the line-up. So I went back into the tower, found a sofa and started to watch on TV. And that’s where I stayed, chatting to Bernie Ecclestone about cows and everyone else about Ozempic, until Max won. I then went back outside to watch the fireworks and then back to the palace, where I sat on the beach, drinking wine with friends and watching Lisa on the dancefloor trying to teach Lando Norris an Irish jig. It was an incredible, head-swivelling weekend, but although the race provided a few moments of close-quarter action, which I missed because of Bernie Ecclestone’s cows, I’m afraid that still it only works as a live event if you’re a driver. Or if you know the crown prince and your friend has a private jet. If these things don’t apply, you’re much better off in the capable hands of Martin Brundle, on the sofa at home after a lovely Sunday roast. Off the grid: Jeremy’s thoughts on F1: On Bernie Ecclestone (2016): “I like him. He’s far too small, obviously, and his haircut is ridiculous. On the crossover between F1 cars and road cars (2016): “There is nothing on your Vauxhall Astra that was developed in F1. Nothing.” On the claim by Toto Wolff — the team principal of Mercedes-AMG Petronas — that F1’s new American owners would bring digital improvements (2016): “No, Toto. We don’t care about digital. We just want to see a crash.” On how to make F1 less boring (2019): “Number one: get rid of the stewards. Dangerous driving is what fans want, so if someone does dangerous driving I’d give them an extra five championship points. Two: the cars have to be stronger to withstand wheel-to-wheel action without bits of front wings coming off. Three: the governing body needs to look at what cricket did. They had a five-day boring sport and they turned it into what we saw in the final of the World Cup: super overs and crowds chanting.” On Lewis Hamilton v Max Verstappen (2022): “Max may be a Belgian yob but I’m rooting for him. Though Lewis probably has the edge when it comes to wheel-to-wheel racing. He’s cleverer. More calculating. So we have a battle of maths versus violence.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Our culture war is a distraction from the real issues around trans rights By Jeremy Clarkson ( Sunday Times, March 26) As we all know, JK Rowling recently expressed an opinion on the transgender debate and she wasn’t just cancelled. She was erased. They put her in the delete bin and then afterwards, all her former fans and even the actors and actresses she’d made famous emptied the bin into a landfill site so that seagulls could feast on her eyes. Mercifully, I’ve always known I would not suffer a similar fate because I’ve always had exactly the same views on transgenderism as I do on Victorian literature or trees. It’s not something that’s ever interested me so why should I bother forming an opinion on it? If I want to get fed to the seagulls, I could think of a million other ways of going about it, all of which would be far more satisfying than calling Eddie Izzard a man or laughing at Sam Smith’s insistence that his interest in angling makes him a “fisherthem”. The fact is that I don’t know any transgender people. I once saw a very tall lady in Selfridges who had an Adam’s apple and hairy hands, but that’s it. That’s my only actual real world experience of the issue and it left me completely underwhelmed. However, in recent times the transgender issue has come to dominate the news so completely that I’ve been forced to pay a bit more attention. We are being asked whether schoolchildren should be allowed to change gender and whether a man can go to a women’s prison. This is big stuff, when you think about it. And there’s more. In the last week alone, there’s been a row about the new gender-neutral lavatories at the Lyric Theatre in Hammersmith, west London, and we learned that officers in the Metropolitan Police are to be stopped from investigating crime so they can spend more time learning about “faer” and the hundred or so different options that are available to modern-day youth. And then there was Baroness Fox, who was uninvited to speak on the cancel culture at Royal Holloway, University of London, because she’d retweeted a Ricky Gervais joke about transgender people. Meanwhile, we have Piers Morgan, who’s making a good living from the debate, and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, whose charity will now be supporting the Global Boyhood Initiative, which helps foster a greater understanding of transforming gender. Oh, and on Thursday, World Athletics, the governing body for those who like to run around and jump over things, announced that anyone who went through male puberty may not take part in female events, unless they are — deep breath — DSD (differences of sex development) intersex people whose testosterone levels have been below 2.5 nanomoles per litre for a period of at least two years. It would be easy at this point to roll your eyes and think that the world’s gone mad. But hang on a minute. Because what if you’re wrong? When I was at school in the Seventies, we were aware that the homosexual act was kind of technically possible, but the notion that anyone would do such a thing was of course laughable. And then Freddie Mercury got Aids. We were in shock. You mean he . . . you know? And then Rock Hudson got it too, and then Elton John announced he had a predilection for members of the same genital grouping. And then suddenly the floodgates opened. In school we’d always joked that one of the teachers was gay, then it turned out he was. And so was one of our friends. And now, just 40 years on, I feel weird for never having tried it. I went to a gay wedding last year and in January I spent a happy week cruising (on a boat) round the Caribbean with a gay couple. And it’s not a recent thing either. It wasn’t invented by Alan Turing. Leonardo Da Vinci was gay. So was Richard I, and James VI and Florence Nightingale. Sir Ian McKellen reckons that even Shakespeare swung both ways. Gayness, then, has been around since the very beginning. Well, not the very beginning obviously; we wouldn’t have got very far if Eve had been a lesbian — but close to the beginning. So what if it’s the same deal with transgenderism? Has that too been going on for years? Will we discover in the coming decades that half those brave Tommies in the First World War trenches were secretly hoping to have their old chaps shot off so they could go home and put on a frock? We know that in the early 20th century, a boy in California decided he was a girl. She called herself Lucy, married a man and when that failed, she opened a brothel. Where, during a routine venereal disease check, it was discovered that she had a penis. So off she went to prison. And that, to me, has some troubling Turing overtones. I realise, of course, that the whole trans debate has been hijacked by lunatics who glue themselves to stuff and claim to be from a gender that doesn’t even exist, and I know too that there is some kind of civil war going on between fiercely women women and women who just say they’re women. This creates a noise that’s annoying to most of us, but think how infuriating it must be to those who really were born in the wrong body. I believe that this is possible and I accept that it creates several problems for society, and not just in the lavatory or in a prison or in the school high jump competition. But how can we address these issues when every teenage halfwit is muddying the waters by claiming to identify as a bat and inventing a pronoun that wouldn’t even be allowed in a game of Scrabble? “Faer”, my arse. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ And here's the Sun column: " Bike sales down?

2023.03.28 00:59 eyesinthevillage Switch from Enfamil to Kirkland Sensitive
We currently have our 10 week old on Enfamil ready to feed.
We want to make the switch to powder and my husband bought the Kirkland sensitive to lactose (that’s all they had, and he didn’t know any different).
Is it okay to give baby he Kirkland sensitive to lactose formula even though she does not have a sensitivity?
Also, is it okay to have her on a store brand such as Kirkland but some days give her the Enfamil ready to feed when we are out and about for convenience?

2023.03.27 21:37 randomtopics12 Can eczema on face in breastfed babies be caused by allergens in breastmilk?
Our ped considers eczema to be a skin issue and recommends applying hydrocortisone and the like. A friend’s ped looks at this from a completely different angle: he recommended to her to proceed with an elimination diet and investigate what causes the flare ups. They eventually went down the formula route as she had to eliminate lots of food for her son to clear up. The rashes on my son and my friends son are pretty similar. I did some research online and it seems this is a subject of controversy in the pediatrics field? Or is it just that my ped is not up to date with the latest methods/knowledge?

2023.03.27 19:46 HedgiesRFu7 Ted Farnsworth is engaging in criminal activities while under i9ndictment and released on bond with the condition to not commit more crimes and the prosecutor needs to be made aware.
| Would you like to make a difference in BBIG? Posted through T-away for obvious reasons. My recommendations is the you copy and paste this email after adding your name and send it to the prosecutor with a read receipt. Please see below "sent via email" and forward to all those email addresses. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The United States Department of Justice Attention: Christopher Fenton, Lead Attorney for the United States in USA v. Theodore Farnsworth and J. Mitchell Lowe, Case number: 1:22-cr-20521-RNS (filed 11/02/2022) 1400 New York Avenue, NW Washington D.C., 20530 And to U.S. District Court, for the Southern District of Florida, Attention Hon. Robert N. Scola Jr. Judge Presiding Attention: Jacob Hasbun, Courtroom Deputy to Hon. Robert N. Scola Jr. 400 North Miami Avenue Room 12-3 Miami, Florida 33128 Sent Via Email: [ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]); [ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]); [ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]); [ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]); [ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]); [Jacob_ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]) Re: Defendant Theodore Farnsworth most likely currently engaged in criminal fraud identical, or nearly identical to conduct for which he is currently a named Defendant, and on Bond. His actions may be, and likely are in direct violation of the terms of his Bonded Release. To Christopher Fenton as the Lead Counsel, and to his co-counsel Blake Goebel, Lauren Archer, Marx Calderon, Matthew Reilly, and to the Hon. Robert N. Scola Jr, Judge presiding: SUMMARY Defendant Theodore Farnsworth has been indicted for various acts of securities fraud and has been placed on a $1,000,000 bond containing public and confidential conditions. Of the publicly viewable conditions, condition number 5 clearly states that Farnsworth “[m]ust not violate any federal, state or local law while on release”. As pointed out in this letter, I am informed, and believe and thereupon allege that Farnsworth has been and continues to violate Federal securities laws with regard to his involvement with Vinco Ventures, its publicly traded common stock BBIG and with regard to Zash (ZVV) and an alleged merger, as well as with the acquisition of several business entities, as well as payment of ‘finders fees’ to Farnsworth. It seems incongruous that prosecutors for the United States would indict a person, and then place them on bond with restrictions, and thereafter turn a blind eye to that indicted person continuing on his merry way to commit new crimes of an identical nature, for financial gain while on said bond with restrictions. It appears from reviewing public documents on PACER that Farnsworth is attempting to fulfill an agreement to cooperate with the Government in hopes of obtaining a ‘5K’ letter while released on bond. What is disturbing is the idea that the Government would be unaware that while trying to mitigate his sentence, with government acquiescence, he would be allowed to commit new crimes. Even more disturbing if the government had actual knowledge of his ongoing criminal activity and did nothing to curb it. I am assuming the government is (until now) unaware that Farnsworth is actively engaged in criminal activity and has been the entire time while out on bond. Therefore, I write to you in the hopes that starting immediately you will verify my claims, and swiftly seek ex parte relief by seeking a bond revocation, and having the US Marshalls take Farnsworth into custody and bring him before Judge Scola, and at a minimum impose additional and more detailed conditions on any further bond release to prevent Farnsworth from continuing with his illegal fraudulent stock manipulations in relation to BBIG. FACTS AND ALLEGATIONS Retail owns 80.31% of the common stock (see www.wallstreetzen.com/stocks/us/nasdaq/bbig/ownership). Farnsworth’s ‘significant other’ Roderick Vanderbilt is on the Vinco (BBIG) Board of Directors, (I am informed and believe and thereupon allege the two cohabitate in South Florida). As has been Farnsworth’s Modus Operendi, now that BBIG is out of compliance with NASDAQ’s minimum Share Price requirements, Vinco is attempting to force a reverse split which will further damage and defraud shareholders to the advantage of Farnsworth and his partners in crime. Retail recently attempted to place three of its qualified members on a ballot to be voted on as potential Board Members, only to have a company that has not filed Quarterly income reports as required by law or to hold an annual meeting during the year of 2022 churn out a 10-page letter in short order detailing a host of technical deficiencies as their reason for rejecting the proposal. Clearly Farnsworth and his partners in crime know how to pay attention to detail when it is in their advantage and the technical deficiencies that have Vinco in danger of delisting is intentional to further their fraud and market manipulation. I have been a shareholder of $BBIG stock since August 2021. Prior to purchasing common shares in $BBIG, I was (sadly) not informed of the failures of Movie Pass, nor was I aware that Defendant Theodore Farnsworth was the number one key player and architect of Vinco Ventures. I had no idea of the similarities between the fraudulent market manipulations of Movie Pass, nor of the fact that the key players and the formula for preplanned failure was a near identical cookie cutter version of Movie Pass. At no time was it disclosed to me that Susquehanna (Jeffrey S. Yass) the primary designated market maker for BBIG was/is the single largest entity lending out shares of BBIG for purposes of shorting BBIG. It was likewise never disclosed to me that Susquehanna is a 15% stakeholder in TikTok, a prime competitor of LOMO. As such, Susquehanna has an obvious and un-waivable financial conflict of interest: The success of BBIG/LOMO results in a financial loss in Susquehanna’s TikTok investment. BBIG also never disclosed that the CEO of Hudson Bay has close connections with Susquehanna, which disclosure must certainly have been Germaine given the content of paragraph one, and that Hudson Bay held a large net short position in BBIG at the time Vinco negotiated and entered into lending agreements with Hudson Bay. A really good summary of the intentional criminal fraud and wrongdoings of Theodore Farnsworth and his many partners in crime is well summarized in this article: https://parsingpennies.wordpress.com/2022/07/05/bbig-ted-farnsworths-reverse-merger-sexy-cash-accumulation-machine/ Here is one quote from the above internet article: Ted Farnsworth’s business strategies and personal incentives It’s fair to say Farnsworth has significant influence and involvement in Vinco’s operations. For example, it’s not a coincidence that Hudson Bay invested in both HMNY and Vinco. In fact, Farnsworth has characterized Hudson Bay’s investment in Vinco as an investment in him! Later in the above cited internet article the author explains the crimes that Defendant Theodore Farnsworth has committed and continues to commit in the section captioned ‘The relationship between Vinco, ZVV, ZASH and Lomotif’. I encourage you to read the entire article but will not quote it at length because to do so will dilute this letter, and dilution is Defendant Theodore Farnsworth’s Modus Operendi, not mine. I also believe there are many other internet articles that you will find useful in gaining insight into Defendant Theodore Farnsworth’s Modus Operendi such as: https://mywallst.com/blog/mywallst-what-happened-to-moviepass/ and https://www.thewrap.com/ted-farnsworth-moviepass-chairman-stake-tiktok-rival-lomotif/ Also, there is a treasure trove of ‘Due Diligence’ to be found on the Reddit subs BBIG and BBIG and TYDE, and more importantly, there is a twitter space call tomorrow night which the prosecution team should seriously consider listening in on, for two reasons: First, there may be things to learn, and second, Vinco Board of Directors do occasionally lurk, and there might be some participation in which case they may make statements that qualify as either ‘admissions’ or possibly even ‘confessions’ though I doubt that will be the case. Nevertheless, Commissioner Ross J. Miller will be speaking and he has information from the inside out as he was briefly ‘court appointed’ to the Vinco Board of Directors, before leaving in a manner that quite possibly would qualify as being ‘ousted’ or, as some think, he was a shill planted onto the Vinco Board of Directors by Defendant Theodore Farnsworth with the approval of his partners in crime, including Roderick Vanderbilt (Defendant Theodore Farnsworth’s significant other) and Lisa King, a long time ‘associate’ of Defendant Theodore Farnsworth’s). The case of Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd. v. Patriot Nat'l, Inc. (S.D.N.Y. 2018) 309 F. Supp. 3d 100 lays out the ‘cookie cutter’ behavior Hudson Bay has engaged in with BBIG as it has on prior occasions. Hudson got away with their market manipulation in Patriot, so they have done it again. Only this time, the manipulation has become even bolder. At a minimum, legal action in the form of additional conditions upon Theodore Farnsworth’s Bond release must take place immediately, and quite frankly, he should be remanded forthwith for several compelling reasons. First, while he is a Defendant and on Bond release in case 1:22-cr-20521-RNS, he is (IMO) currently profiting from committing more crimes of fraud and stock market manipulation and as prosecutors you have a duty to see that he is not afforded any opportunity to create any more victims or to continue to profit from his illegal activities. Second, because he is married to Roderick Vanderbilt and cohabitates with Rod, who is on the Board of Directors of Vinco (BBIG) there is no way that a mere condition of release that he does not talk with or do anything to influence Rod’s actions as a Vinco Board member. An actual sequestering must take place. Remanding Defendant Theodore Farnsworth for violating one or more terms of his current Bond conditions will accomplish that Defendant Theodore Farnsworth is most likely working on toward convincing the prosecution team to write him a ‘5K’ letter in hopes of obtaining a ‘downward departure’ or ‘downward variance’. I make this inference because there are additional terms of his bond release that are not viewable to folks who access PACER, and because the case has been stalled in a lengthy continuance until September 11, 2023. In my opinion, the most likely explanation for that is that he needs time to perform various tasks, before he can obtain the 5K letter, and the prosecution team has necessarily given him time to get those things accomplished. It is (IMO) a breach of public trust to allow him to commit additional crimes while he is supposedly working on those tasks. Prosecutors in the case against Jordan Belfort (the Wolf of Wall Street) had a similar situation and Prosecutors acted swiftly to take Belfort into custody. This was necessary for them to both protect the public and to further motivate Belfort to keep his end of the agreement with the Government (which he did thereafter keep). You can get the same leverage here and protect the public in the process. The last thing the Government needs is a situation like it had in the Greg Scarpa Sr. case, where Scrapa was out on bond, and committing even more crimes. That fact became a public embarrassment when ‘Deal with The Devil’ (written by Peter Lance and published by Harper-Collins) was released in Hardback Edition. I am acquainted with Mr. Lance, and he has expressed interest in this story if it continues to unravel on the Government’s watch. As you can see from the Chart below the On Balance Volume (OBV) shows an increase without a drop, as the stock price has continued to plummet for the past 1.5 years. https://preview.redd.it/yylddhc6kbqa1.png?width=1642&format=png&auto=webp&s=412df9deec3d18429ef5d7c9410015a15206d3d7 It makes no sense that the price of a stock goes down as more and more investors purchase and hold? The simplest explanation is illegal stock manipulation, and Defendant Theodore Farnsworth, Hudson Bay (toxic Financier) and Designated Market Maker (handpicked by Defendant Theodore Farnsworth, Susquehanna, who has an obvious and undeniable conflict of interest as a major shareholder in ByteDance, owner of TikTok, the major rival to Lomotiff, aka LOMO, which is one of BBIG’s most valuable assets as a TikTok competitor) CONCLUSION It is my sincere hope that you will commence investigating my claims the minute you finish reading this letter, and that upon a cursory examination of the facts, you will conclude that my claims have merit and you will then make an immediate ex parte motion to have Farnsworth picked up and brought before the Judge to revoke or amend his bond release to stop further currently ongoing criminal activity.
