Ben Affleck revealed he had to get Michael Jordan’s approval before making Air, including what could and couldn’t be in the movie. Ben Affleck: ...not going to do anything that you're not down with. So, if you want to give me a couple hours, sit down and tell me like what's real, what's not, and what you care about, you know, I... and he was like, "All right, cool. Come out to my golf course." So, flew out there... Matt Barnes: How was that? Ben Affleck: It was sick. You know what I mean? Like, damn, it's good to be Michael Jordan, it turns out. Stephen Jackson: 36 holes, right? Ben Affleck: It's crazy, yeah. Nobody's there except him and his boys. It's just like that thing, you know? And um, he... I went, waited for my man to finish, you know what I mean? They're like, "Mike will be like soon." I was like, "I'm not going anywhere. I'm cool." And when he got done, he was like, "So, what... what is this?" you know? And I said, "Look, it's the story of your Nike deal, basically, and you know, what happened around then, and here's..." I had sent him the script, and I kind of talked him through it a little bit.

Daughter of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner DEMANDS MASK MANDATES. Violet Affleck gave an unhinged speech in front of the LA County Board of Supervisors where she claimed COVID targets ‘People of Colour’ and ‘Trans People.’ “I demand mask availability, air filtration and Far-UVC light in government facilitates, including jails and detention centers, and mask mandates in county medical faculties.” “You must expand the availability of high-quality free tests and treatment, and most importantly the county must oppose mask bans for any reason. They do not keep us safer.” Violet Affleck, 18, is regularly seen wearing a mask while walking around outside in Los Angeles. Her sister, Seraphina Rose Affleck, recently came out as non-binary, shaved her hair off and declared she now identifies as a boy called ‘Fin.’ She made the declaration at her grandfathers funeral.

Nick Wright on the lack of relationship between Michael Jordan and LeBron James: “Just my speculation here. I think that Jordan became less and less comfortable with LeBron’s place in the basketball ecosystem as LeBron started getting closer and closer and closer to becoming the people’s choice for greatest player ever. I always felt one of the reasons Jordan embraced Kobe was not only did Kobe model his entire game and at times his persona after Jordan, it was very clear relatively early that Kobe was never going to, like Kobe’s ceiling in the eyes of the majority was going to be second to Jordan. And so Jordan felt comfortable putting his arms around him. There was no threatening of his stature. And it’s not lost on anyone that people had been trying to make the last dance forever. That footage had been around forever and Jordan did not okay it until two days after the 3-1 comeback against the Warriors. The story is that it was the day of the Cavs parade that Jordan finally green lit that. So I think there’s always been a little uncomfortableness, but I think it is very interesting that LeBron is saying, “I hope I made him proud.” (Via What’s Wright? with Nick Wright)

🚨BREAKING🚨 Two Air Force security guards were abducted by aliens and taken aboard a UFO for 5+ hours while guarding a live thermonuclear weapon at Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota. After the incident, the Air Force split them apart and interrogated them. 49 years later, they are reuniting for the first time. Mario Woods and Michael Johnson were the two-man security team guarding a Minuteman launch facility at Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota. The alarms at the base tripped just after midnight indicating something had breached the vicinity of a live hydrogen bomb. They approached the missile sight and saw a huge, bright light the size of a city block hovering over it. A black sphere then descended from the light, circled their truck and four shadowy alien-looking figures came to their truck window telling them “do not fear”. The next thing either man remembers is waking up over five hours later, 8.5 miles away, by Newell Reservoir Dam. Johnson catatonic at the wheel, the ground beside the truck turned to mud in a field that should have been frozen solid. The Air Force brought them back to the base and debriefed both. Woods described the light and the missing hours but never admitted he had seen beings at his window. That one omission let him keep his clearance and his career. Johnson described the beings. That same night he was injected with sodium pentathol or truth serum and interrogated, then demoted, put on janitor duty and discharged with a code that ended his military future. He spent the decades that followed repressing that memory, at times drinking, descending into homelessness for a while, and telling no one. For thirty years Michael Johnson could not be found. Woods went public in 1996 and begged the FBI, Air Force investigators, the Senate Intelligence Committee and the Pentagon's UFO office to help locate his partner, and every one of them came up empty. Then one of our viewers sent in a Facebook page. Within a week Johnson was on the phone, and given nothing but the name of the base and the month and year of the incident, he said "the UFO" before anyone on the line had brought it up. Only one account of that night has ever existed. Now there are two, and they match. On this show, Michael and Mario were given hypnotic regressions hours apart and out of earshot of one another. The two men were taken back to that night, and their memories converged. Buried in both, was something that finally explained what the beings did when they came for them and why the Air Force made sure they never compared notes. The hardest evidence needs no hypnosis at all. The Air Force Office of Special Investigations agent present at Mario’s debrief, Rick Doty, now admits to being there and says he think the events Mario has described for decades that night did in fact occur. And then the little details: Fifteen days after that night, Johnson told Woods he had seen a glove lying on a shiny floor, nothing like the truck's rubber mats. Woods emptied his kit bag and found the left glove and no right one. The right was the one he had pulled off that night to work his flashlight, and the hand it covered had come back burned. The gloves were a one-off gift from a B-52 pilot and nobody else on the base had a pair, so the glove Johnson saw could only have been Woods'. And the shiny floor must have been the UFO. A flight surgeon also clipped a tissue sample from Mario’s burn in November 1977. Mario has a photographic memory of the entire event. And now its going to retell it with its missing half: Michael C. Johnson. For the first time in half a century, the two men are in the same room. Full documentary live now.

Want MORE proof?? I dare anyone to watch this, then tell me they aren’t running an anti-Luka Doncic campaign. “He had 8 threes, and I’m guessing at least 4 of those were step-backs because that’s the only way he can kind of make shots” - Danny Green THE ONLY WAY?? He’s talking about the guy who is 3rd all time in points-per-game behind ONLY Michael Jordan & Wilt!! Then they discuss which player will determine the Lakers ceiling, and NONE take the MVP candidate— “I’m going to say LeBron because he brings the FEAR-FACTOR 🤓🤓” -Chiney Then they close with the token-white on the show who doesn’t have an opinion saying “Interesting that no one said Luka Doncic” Is it really INTERESTING, or has this been a pattern now for 8 years?? 🤡🤡

March 8, 1998. The final time Michael Jordan walked into Madison Square Garden as a member of the Chicago Bulls. And like so many nights before in New York, he turned the world’s most famous arena into his personal stage. The Bulls were in the middle of their final championship run, the season that would later be immortalized as The Last Dance. Chicago entered the game with the best record in the Eastern Conference, while the rival New York Knicks were still one of the league’s toughest defensive teams. It was a nationally televised Sunday matchup, the kind of stage Jordan had dominated for more than a decade. But Jordan decided to make the night even more symbolic. Instead of wearing the modern sneakers of 1998, he laced up the original red-and-black Air Jordan 1 from his 1984 rookie season, essentially stepping onto the floor in a pair of basketball shoes that were already over a decade old. Fadeaways. Turnarounds. Impossible shots from every angle. At one point he even spun through the lane for a 360-degree slam, reminding everyone that age 35 meant nothing to him. By the end of the night, Jordan had poured in 42 points, grabbed 8 rebounds, and led Chicago to a 102–89 victory over the Knicks. The performance came at a cost. The vintage sneakers were too small after all those years. By halftime, Jordan’s feet were bleeding, but he refused to take them off because he was playing too well. As the game ended, the New York crowd that had spent years battling him stood up and applauded. Even Knicks fans understood they had just watched the final chapter of one of basketball’s greatest rivalries. And fittingly, the greatest player ever walked out the same way he arrived: wearing the shoes that started it all.

The significance of Galadriel giving Gimli three strands of her hair goes back thousands of years before the Years of the Sun. In Valinor, Fëanor was captivated by Galadriel’s hair. Tolkien wrote that the Eldar believed the light of the Two Trees had been “snared” within it, and many thought this helped inspire Fëanor’s desire to capture their light in the Silmarils. Fëanor asked Galadriel three times for a tress of her hair. She refused him every time and would not give him even a single strand. Ages later, Gimli stood before her in Lothlórien. When Galadriel asked what gift he desired, Gimli humbly named a single strand of her hair, saying he did not actually ask for it, but only named his desire because she had commanded him to. Galadriel gave him three. What was denied to Fëanor, one of the greatest of the Noldor, was given to a Dwarf. Gimli promised to set the hairs in imperishable crystal as an heirloom of his house and a pledge of goodwill between the Mountain and the Wood. The moment also reflects Gimli’s transformation in Lothlórien. He entered the realm amid the old mistrust between Dwarves and Elves, but Galadriel’s kindness profoundly affected him. He would become a close friend of Legolas.

This war has given China a green light, and what comes next could make the Iran conflict look like a warm-up... David Pyne, Fmr. U.S. Army Officer and Nat'l Security Expert, doesn't think this pause is the "end," he thinks it's the setup for something FAR more dangerous: Trump has now cancelled strikes on Iran twice in a week, each time after ordering full war preparations. Israel is reportedly furious, and Pyne's read is Trump cannot decide between being a neocon and being a realist, bouncing between the two with no coherent exit. Before February 28th, Iran had ordered its proxies NOT to attack U.S. forces, they were contained. Now, they fire ballistic missiles at U.S. troops in Jordan and restart the war every time Trump offers an olive branch. As far as China's concerned, the U.S. is ALREADY below 50% of pre-war missile stockpiles, China has a 10-to-1 ship advantage in the Taiwan Strait and a far greater missile advantage still, and Pyne anticipates a Chinese move on Taiwan by NEXT OCTOBER. "This war has basically been one big green light for China to make a big move..." Appreciate your insights, David Pyne 🇺🇸

ISLAMIZATION OF THE NYPD MARCHES Just in case the NYPD hadn’t shoved Islam down our throats enough… here’s the latest: “Eid Mubarak, Greetings from Wahid Akter” - straight from the NYPD Muslim Society / Deputy Inspector Wahid Akter. Another official-sounding Eid promo wishes Muslims the best, while the rest of us get silence on our holidays. It wasn’t enough that we’ve had: NYPD HQ glowing with Ramadan crescent moons (dawah targeted at non-Muslims, per a Muslim Lieutenant’s own words: “awareness is really mostly for non-Muslims”). Taxpayer-funded iftars at precincts, Police Academy, and beyond with Pakistan Consulate VIPs feasting while minorities suffer back home. Hijab promotions, dedicated prayer spaces, Quranic recitations at events, and Commissioners bowing in submission. Multiple precincts turning into outreach hubs post-9/11: iftars, mosque visits, community “unity” that only flows one way. Now add Deputy Inspector Wahid Akter’s personal Eid greeting video/special - because apparently one Eid post from HQ isn’t enough... This isn’t inclusion. It’s one-sided institutional promotion of Islam, 24+ years after 9/11. The Thin Blue Line is turning green, precinct by precinct. New York: wake up before the adhan drowns out sirens and every badge requires submission.

$NBIS Arkady Volozh reveals Nebius recently auctioned its Blackwell compute and cleared 15% to 20% above any price it had ever sold before "Well, when you have this imbalance between demand and supply, the best price discovery mechanism is something like an auction, in one way or another." "Again, we try to do it manually first to raise the prices. It didn't help. The demand is still there." "What is the best mechanism to discover what is the real price, what the real price balance should be?" "We ran our first experimental auction for the Blackwell processors a month ago, several weeks ago. We achieved results when we got 15%, 20% higher price than we ever sold before, after all our price raises." "We like the experience, but more importantly, our clients like the experience. The guys who won this auction, they tweeted that they're happy that they were able to get guaranteed capacity through this mechanism." "Because this is the only way when there's a deficit of resources and you need it." "What is the way to get it guaranteed? Go in the price competition and win. And they won the auction, and they were happy about it, and we are happy about it."

In Heat, the scene with Robert De Niro and Amy Brenneman looking out over the Los Angeles skyline, is one of the most beautiful shots in all of crime cinema. However, it was also incredibly difficult to pull off in 1995, before the introduction of digital cinematography Heat was shot on Kodak EXR 500T 5298, a fast tungsten-balanced film stock designed for low-light photography. This allowed cinematographer Dante Spinotti to shoot night scenes without blasting the actors with harsh movie lights. Instead, he could rely on softer, more naturalistic light sources, while still allowing the audience to see deep into the darkness of nighttime Los Angeles. That stock was ideal for the terrace scene between De Niro and Brenneman. It could capture the soft light spilling from De Niro’s house onto their faces, keeping the scene intimate and natural. But there was still a problem: they were working on film. Once they exposed correctly for the actors, the background of Los Angeles’ skyline disappeared into darkness. Michael Mann wanted to preserve the brilliance of the cityscape, and the way it reflected off the night clouds, while still maintaining that soft, romantic glow on the actors. So Spinotti came up with a clever solution. He shot the background separately using Panavision Primo lenses opened all the way to T2, meaning the aperture was set extremely wide so the lens could take in as much light as possible. First, he shot the night sky at 4 frames per second. Because the camera was running much slower than normal, each frame was exposed for longer, giving the film more time to absorb the faint light in the sky. Then he shot the skyline separately at 12 frames per second. This gave the lights more brightness and clarity. He also pushed the film one stop. In simple terms, he shot the film as if it needed less light than it actually did, then had the lab develop it longer to bring the brightness back up. This made the city lights register far more strongly, while the darker parts of the image fell deeper into black - creating what Spinotti described as a glowing “ocean of lights.” They then shot the scene on location with a greenscreen placed behind or, in some setups, in front of the actors. What you’re seeing in the final shot is three separate film elements - the sky, the city lights, and the actors - all exposed differently, at different frame rates, then combined through digital compositing into a single image. The result is strangely beautiful. De Niro and Brenneman seem almost suspended in mid-air, floating above the city lights, giving the moment an almost abstract, dreamlike quality - one that perfectly complements the overall tone of the scene.

In Heat, the scene with Robert De Niro and Amy Brenneman looking out over the Los Angeles skyline, is one of the most beautiful shots in all of crime cinema. However, it was also incredibly difficult to pull off in 1995, before the introduction of digital cinematography Heat was shot on Kodak EXR 500T 5298, a fast tungsten-balanced film stock designed for low-light photography. This allowed cinematographer Dante Spinotti to shoot night scenes without blasting the actors with harsh movie lights.

Finally, I had my test drive with FSD in Germany (Düsseldorf) today. The three of us arrived after a 3-hour and 15-minute drive (with a coffee break along the way). After checking in for our 12:00 appointment, we finally set off at 12:25. We were told beforehand that it was a scheduled half-hour drive due to high demand. It was an incredible and astonishing experience. How smoothly the car drove, how it overtook stationary cars, and gave way to pedestrians (even one in the middle of the road). Finally, after all the chaotic Düsseldorf traffic with its many cars, trams, and pedestrians, we arrived at the central station, where the car parked behind taxis instead of parking spaces (I thought there weren't any available). I won't be editing the video to avoid making you wait any longer. Watch part one, and then I'll post part two, where we returned from the central station to Tesla. I'm absolutely convinced that FSD is ready for Europe. Honestly, it drives much better than a human, I think. It also sees much more than a human, especially in chaotic traffic or in unfamiliar areas where a human might linger. And before I forget, it braked once on the way to the station at a non-functioning traffic light because a yellow light was flashing next to it. Anyway, we enjoyed it today; it's a real shame it was only for half an hour. I can't wait for the update in my car after it's approved by the RDW (Netherlands Vehicle Authority). @Tesla_NL_TR & Yaşar Yiğitsoy were with me today. #Tesla #TeslaFSD #FSDforEurope

Samir Geagea, your entire approach to peace is wrong. You focus on the two-state solution, but that’s not Lebanon’s problem. The real problem is the Palestinian presence in our country. We Lebanese should not be advocates for a Palestinian state. Why should I defend their cause when they once tried to take over Lebanon as their homeland? They had Gaza, and look how it ended. And you want me to shout for them to have another country? Absolutely not. Our problem is crystal clear: their existence on Lebanese soil. Since 1948, Lebanon has carried this burden, and it has ruined our stability and sovereignty. As a Christian, I refuse to accept them as part of Lebanon’s future. If you want real solutions, then negotiate peace with Israel, but with one non-negotiable condition: the removal of these squatters from Lebanon. And since you boast about Lebanon’s alliances with Saudi Arabia and the Arab world, why not demand that they host the Palestinians? Why should Lebanon be the only country forced to carry this destructive weight? Samir Geagea البطريركية المارونية Morgan Ortagus #NataliaInMotion #PeaksOfPeace #CedarAccords
