The Green Bay Packers will attempt to get back in the win column for the first time since Week 4 when Matt LaFleur’s struggling team arrives in Detroit to play the one-win Lions on Sunday at Ford Field.
Will Week 9 represent a turning point for Aaron Rodgers the Packers? Or will the struggles of the 2022 season continue appearing in a must-win game against a division opponent on a five-game losing streak?
Follow along with Packers Wire for live updates, scoring plays and highlights from the contest.

The Packers’ 13-play, 88-yard drive ended with a tipped interception in the end zone. Aaron Rodgers’ pass got batted into the air and ended up in a mass of Lions. This came after the Packers made a fourth-down stop in the red zone on the Lions first drive. Two drives, two scoring opportunities, zero points so far.

Another trip into the red zone, another turnover in the end zone. On fourth down, Aaron Rodgers’ throw to David Bakhtiari on a trick play was intercepted by Aidan Hutchinson, the team’s top pick. The Packers have ended both drives with turnovers. So, who will score first?
Another productive drive for the Packers offense ended without points. On 4th-and-3 from the 38-yard line, Aaron Rodgers appeared to hit Allen Lazard for a 26-yard completion. The Lions challenged, however, and it was ruled an incomplete pass on review. Lazard had it knocked out of his hand as he was attempting to finish the play. The Packers have 206 yards on three drives but zero points.

After the Packers failed on fourth down, the Lions drove 61 yards in eight plays to score the first points of the game. Jaire Alexander’s 15-yard penalty for a late hit out of bounds helped spark the drive. A penalty on the extra point gave the Lions a chance to go for two, and Jamaal Williams converted. It’s 8-0 Lions through two quarters.

The Packers are finally on the board. Aaron Rodgers threw a perfect ball to Lazard, who made the catch in traffic in the end zone for the 20-yard touchdown. The two-point conversion attempt failed. The scoring drive went 54 yards in seven plays. Can the Packers mount a comeback despite all the turnovers and injuries?

The Lions responded immediately to the Packers’ first score. The scoring drive went 70 yards in 13 plays and took over five minutes off the block, and the seven points provide the Lions with a 9-point lead with 14:51 left in the fourth quarter.
A marathon drive – lasting over eight minutes in the fourth quarter – led to a short field goal. The Packers drove 68 yards but couldn’t punch it in for a touchdown. The deficit for Green Bay is now six points with 6:36 left. Can the defense get a stop?
The Packers got a stop on fourth down and needed to go 57 yards in the two-minute drill to win the game, but Aaron Rodgers threw four straight incomplete passes from the 17-yard line and the Lions escaped with a six-point win.

“Impromptu Sailing” from Weinberg junior Joy Fu’s new album incorporates the sounds of water.
Laura Simmons, Reporter

Weinberg junior Joy Fu began experimenting with lofi music, a popular subgenre of electronic music, when teaching herself production skills in high school. 
A few years and many YouTube tutorials later, Fu released her first album “Impromptu Sailing” on Aug. 11, sharing experimental and lofi-inspired songs following her music-related summer internship experience in Shanghai. 
One of her songs, “Pétanque,” reached more than 20,000 listens on Spotify after it was added to a popular lofi playlist. Fu said none of her later pieces became as popular at “Pétanque,” even though she submitted them to multiple Spotify playlists. 
“Initially, doing lofi was to make money,” Fu said. “But now it also makes me happy, regardless of the money side.” 
Fu’s journey began with playing classical piano, but she said she didn’t enjoy learning the instrument and quit after 10 years of lessons.
Though she still doesn’t prefer listening to or playing classical music, Fu said knowing how to play the piano has been beneficial when producing. 
“I always thought that the popular music I listened to on the radio was a completely different thing than classical music,” Fu said. “And then I found out that it’s the same. It’s all music.”
In high school, Fu said she and her friends created primarily lyrics and melodies, but this led her to wonder if she could also produce. 
Along with online tutorials, Fu said she’s drawn inspiration from professional musicians. “Impromptu Sailing,” was influenced by Lana Del Rey and Waa Wei, a Taiwanese musician who specializes in pop with elements of jazz, Fu said.
Fu said she wrote “Impromptu Sailing” using a program that allows the user to combine various music tracks and adjust frequency, or pitch. The program can also add the impression of sound emanating from various directions and distances. 
“You can place different instruments (in the program),” Fu said. “It’s like a concert hall. You can put the piano in the middle and the people on the outside.” 
Communication senior Rosalie Liu said she was inspired by Fu’s music when she directed the film “Upon The Sea.” Fu’s songs “anchor,” “12:28,” “沉没 Silenced,” “re-sail” and “Pétanque” were especially influential as she designed her storyboard, Liu said. 
Both from Shanghai, Liu and Fu met before Fu’s freshman year at a student orientation in Shanghai hosted by the Chinese International Student Association, Liu said. 
“She’s sort of my inspiration,” Liu said. “I really like her as a friend and artist.” 
Fu grew up speaking Mandarin and learned English in school, which she said influences what language she decides to use in her music. Fu said she uses Mandarin to sing about emotional topics. 
“Taiwanese music and American music, they often touch on different themes,” Fu said. “When I’m writing more ballad, slow-paced music, I tend to gravitate toward the Taiwanese side, which is in Mandarin, but then if I want to write something like a Taylor Swift-style track, I might use English.” 
During Fu’s summer internship, she met New York University senior Haotian Wang, who helped Fu with her album. The song “Coffee Cage” required various instrumentalists, so Haotian played the Chinese flute. He said he felt lucky to be part of the song.
“Impromptu Sailing” reminds Wang of an audiovisual journey, which he described as a movie creating an immersive experience. 
Wang said this aspect of Fu’s music is similar to his album “The Bridge in The Mountain’s Hands (A Travelog),” which he also released this summer. 
“It’s a really interesting experience to actually listen to (“Impromptu Sailing”) at night, because I feel like this is an album … for evening,” Wang said. “It’s really good (to) slow down and meditate.” 
As someone not pursuing music for money or fame, Fu said she feels less constrained to following the guidelines of popular music, which follows a more constrictive framework. 
Her summer internship helped her appreciate making more experimental music, Fu added.
“(My internship) was very fun, but that was when I realized the industry part of music-making — that not everyone has the privilege to do whatever they want freely in music,” Fu said.

As happy accidents go, the Roland TB-303 received a pretty lucky roll of the dice back in the ’90s, becoming the must-have device for numerous forms of house and dance music. Fast forward to today, its popularity remains undiminished, with used-unit prices extending beyond reach for most of us. 
Consequentially, it’s the perfect device to emulate in software, and that’s not entirely because of the exorbitant price tag. The original 303 was always, essentially, a budget unit, and with those budgetary constraints came an interface that made sequencer programming something of a nightmare, while control of the synthesizer elements was relatively easy, but on the limited side.
D16 Group has examined the 303 with a laser focus, presenting software which not only sounds unbelievably reminiscent of an original but provides all of the additional elements that you could possibly need in order to go the full 303 mile.Let’s begin with the sound engine itself; we have the traditional saw and square waves at the front end, with the usual pot-based controls for filter cutoff and resonance, envelope modulation and decay. There is also the accent pot, which ties in with the sequential element. 
Apart from the obvious ability to change these controls in real-time with your computer’s cursor, each control may also be assigned a MIDI CC parameter, with a simple right-click of the mouse. If you have a bank of controller pots at your disposal, via your MIDI keyboard, you can line these up nicely to match the on-screen GUI. 
The distortion section comes in for special praise… it’s a strange thing to say, but it’s actually very musical
In the first instance, Phoscyon 2 really does sound indistinguishable from an original 303. However, this is only part of the puzzle, as there is a large contingent of effects to bolster the sound. The distortion section comes in for special praise, with emulations of several devices, coupled with control of drive and colour. It’s a strange thing to say about distortion, but it’s actually very musical. • (opens in new tab)Roland TB-303
An unsurprisingly excellent emulation of the 303 by the original makers, packed full of content.
• Audiorealism Bass Line 3 (opens in new tab)
Includes a Wave Analyser, which automatically transcribes your 303 patterns.
The secondary effects section contains delay, EQ, limiter, chorus and reverb. Some may argue that this is less important in the DAW age, but the beauty of this inclusion is that all of these elements may be contained with a patch, described as a Scene, which is a sum of synth patch, sequence and control settings. Synth-alone patches may also be stored.
D16 has also extended the sonic functionality, with a host of additional controls that were not present on the original machine, such as an envelope attack pot and even vibrato.
Just as important as the sound engine, the large sequencer area invites easy programming of notes, as well as arpeggiations. You can play Phoscyon 2 as a synth, but employing the sequential element will allow all those classic accents and slides. If this is a daunting prospect, it needn’t be, thanks to the addition of random note generation. 
This was a much-used feature on the original 303, and sees a welcome return here, with a number of enhancements for creating your perfect randomised sequence. Notwithstanding, the sequencer area is easy to use, and patterns are easily tweakable.The Phoscyon 2 provides an unbelievably classy emulation of a 303, but what can really push the parameters in your own production is the real-time control of sonic elements. The ability to quickly assign the main parameters to MIDI CCs, means that there is no excuse for not riding the highs and lows of your track with filter control. 
However, it’s important to stress the importance of the sequencer section, as an integral part of the Phoscyon 2 makeup. It’s here that you can get that original 303 sound, through the addition of accents and slides. There is also the inclusion of vibrato, for a new dimension, or you could program your own arpeggiator patterns. 
The random note generation feature is enhanced, for creation in your song’s key. D16 has included an exposable panel on the top-right, which reveals various pots for providing noise, just like the original.
The unique nature of the 303 means that it is heavily reliant on its construct, as a sum of parts. The sound engine is very much exemplary, but the addition of all the effects you want in one place means that you can create your perfect 303 sound. 
The distortion comes in for particular praise; you’ll never have to guess the best distortion to buy again! Add to the mix a very easy-to-use sequencer, and the Phoscyon 2 is a very impressive beast.
MusicRadar verdict: The 303 arena is bustling, but the Phoscyon 2 holds its head very high. A hugely pleasurable and rewarding plugin.
“D16 Group has injected its TB-303 emulator with even more lysergic goodness for an almost perfect acid experience.”

Week 9 Recap
Talking the business of sports
The Chicago Bears (3-5) will host the Miami Dolphins (5-3) on Sunday on Paramount+ and both teams will be eager to test out their new pieces. Chicago added wide receiver Chase Claypool at the NFL trade deadline, while the Dolphins made a splash by adding edge rusher Bradley Chubb to a defense that has sorely lacked a pass-rushing presence. Both players could be limited after a short week of practice, but both are expected to see the field in some capacity. You can stream the game in select markets on Paramount+, which you can try for free for 7 days.
Kickoff for Sunday’s game from Soldier Field in Chicago, is set for 1 p.m. ET. Miami is favored by four points in the latest Bears vs. Colts odds from Caesars Sportsbook and the over/under for total points is 45.5. Sunday’s matchup can be seen live on CBS and streamed live on Paramount+ with their must-have Premium plan, which you can try free for 7 days.
Paramount+ now has levels of membership so you can watch your local NFL on CBS matchups and much more. The Premium Plan is $9.99 per month and you can watch your local CBS live stream, including plenty of sports like SEC on CBS, NFL on CBS, and the PGA Tour, with no ads, on demand and the ability to download episodes for offline viewing. You can try Paramount+ for free for 7 days, so sign up now here.
Before tuning into Sunday’s Bears vs. Dolphins game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up more than $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 9 of the 2022 NFL season on an incredible 148-107 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.
The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick’em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
For Dolphins vs. Bears, the model is picking Miami to cover the spread. This is a matchup of exciting young quarterbacks with Justin Fields taking on Tua Tagovailoa, but it’s clear that Tagovailoa has more weapons surrounding him and is the more advanced passer. He has an elite wide-receiving tandem with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and now his defense has been bolstered.
Meanwhile, Fields will be hopeful that Claypool constitutes an upgrade at wide receiver, but pass protection has still been an enormous issue. The Bears have allowed a league-leading 31 sacks and have a staggering adjusted sack rate of 15.0% that is nearly 50% worse than the next closest team (Giants 10.1%). The Bears have also dealt away Robert Quinn and Roquan Smith, leaving a defense that ranks 31st against the run lacking its two best front-seven players.
Chubb won’t have a full handle on the Miami playbook, but it will behoove the Dolphins to line him up on the edge and let him rush the passer on any passing downs. The model is predicting that the Dolphins record 3.39 sacks on average and that Tagovailoa throws for nearly 300 yards to help Miami cover in well over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
Now that you know what to pick, get ready to watch your live local NFL on CBS games on Paramount+ on any device you want. You can try out Paramount+ for free for seven days. Visit Paramount+ now to stream your live local CBS sporting events, including the NFL, SEC on CBS, and so much more.

We’re at the midway point of the 2022-2023 NFL season and the playoff fate of some teams could be determined as early as this week.
The Lions? Panthers? Texans? They’re basically out of the running already. The real game to watch this week might be one you wouldn’t expect.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers seemed like a shoe-in for the playoffs when the season began. And the Los Angeles Rams are the defending Super Bowl Champions. Both teams, though, are having underwhelming seasons so far, with little—to no offensive performance. The matchup could result in the loser finding it a very steep climb to make it to the post-season.
Here’s a look at all of the matchups this week how best to catch the games.
More heated rivalries have their annual face-off this week. Top among those? The Bills and Jets, two teams that have no love for each other. Here’s this week’s lineup. (The home team is listed second.)
Indianapolis Colts vs New England Patriots, 1:00 a.m. ET on CBS
Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions, 1:00 p.m. ET on Fox
Los Angeles Chargers vs. Atlanta Falcons, 1:00 p.m. ET on Fox
Buffalo Bills vs. New York Jets, 1:00 p.m. ET on CBS
Minnesota Vikings vs. Washington Commanders, 1:00 p.m. ET on Fox
Charlotte Panthers vs. Cincinnati Bengals, 1:00 p.m. ET on Fox
Las Vegas Raiders vs. Jacksonville Jaguars, 1:00 p.m. ET on CBS
Miami Dolphins vs. Chicago Bears, 1:00 p.m. ET on CBS
Seattle Seahawks vs. Arizona Cardinals, 4:05 p.m. ET on Fox
Los Angeles Rams vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 4:25 p.m. ET on CBS
Tennessee Titans vs. Kansas City Chiefs, 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC
Baltimore Ravens vs. New Orleans Saints, 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN
The best way to watch any sort of network programming for free on a big screen is with a good HD antenna. And watching most NFL games is fairly simple, since many air on broadcast networks, meaning you’ll be able to watch even if you don’t have a cable subscription. To ensure you’re getting the most reliable signal, be sure to test the antenna in multiple locations in your home.
There are a number of possibilities.
NBC’s streaming service will give you access to several games, including all Sunday night matchups. You can get a seven-day free trial, followed by a $5 or $10 monthly charge. (The free version of Peacock does not include live sports.)
CBS’s streaming service will give you access to games aired on that network. You can get a one-week free trial, followed by a $5 or $10 monthly charge.
Disney’s bundle of Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ no longer has a free trial, so you’ll have to pay $13.99 per month for all three combined (or $19.99 per month for no ads on Hulu). Including Live TV in the bundle bumps the price to $70 per month ($76 with no ads).
The free trial on this service is no longer offered, as well. It will cost you $70 per month.
After up to a two-week trial, you can expect monthly charges of $65.
Dish Network’s Sling recently increased its prices. The lower-tiered “Orange” plan will now run you $40 per month. Adding the more comprehensive “Blue” plan bumps the cost to $55 per month. (A $5 per month increase for each.) The seven-day free trial has disappeared along with the price increase, but the cord-cutting service is offering 50% off of the first month’s bill.
Formerly known as DirecTV Now, AT&T TVNow and AT&T TV, this oft-renamed streaming service will run you $70 per month and up after the free trial option.
This sports-focused cord-cutting service carries broadcast networks in most markets. There’s a seven-day free trial, followed by monthly charges of $70–$100, depending on the channels you choose.
Not on the weekends. Amazon is, for the next 11 years, the exclusive home to Thursday Night Football, but does not carry any weekend games. Next up is the Atlanta Falcons vs Charlotte Panthers on Nov. 10, a rematch of their faceoff last Sunday.
A trio, actually.
The NFL App will let you stream games that are being broadcast locally in your market on Sundays. If you want to watch an “out of market” game, you’ve got two choices.
Watch live local and out of market games and (with the premium subscription) replays. There’s a seven-day free trial, after which you’re looking at a $30 charge per season. ($80 for premium.)
DirecTV customers have access to it, but (if you meet the conditions, like living in an apartment complex or some area where you can’t get DirecTV) you can also sign up for an online version, letting you watch any NFL game live this season. There’s a one-week trial, then you’re looking at monthly charges of $73.49 per month for a four-month period or $293.36 for the entire season (or $99 for four months or $396).

The awards will feature live performances from Elephant Sessions, FARA, Trip, the Eryn Rae Trio (BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician Award Winner 2022), the Gordon Shand Scottish Dance Band, The Auldeners, St Roch’s Irish Minstrels and Tayside Young Fiddlers, plus a tribute to James Alexander, Fochabers fiddle teacher and performer, from his former pupils.

Margaret Cameron, director of content at MG ALBA said: “It is always a pleasure to see the incredible wealth of talent we have in the world of Scottish traditional music showcased on BBC ALBA, and there are few nights better than Na Trads for doing just that. The 20th anniversary celebration will be a night to remember.”
Ealasaid MacDonald, director of strategy and external affairs at MG ALBA, said: “MG ALBA are extremely proud to sponsor these awards, and we cannot wait to attend the first post lockdown event to celebrate 20 spectacular years of Na Trads.
“It’s been a very difficult couple of years for the music industry in Scotland and that’s what makes this recognition for all the impressive innovation and collaboration all the more important.”
Organiser and awards founder Simon Thoumire of Hands Up For Trad said: “In difficult times bands are getting back out on the road and filling venues across the world, bringing joy to people, and it’s great to be back to celebrate this and showcase all the work that has been taking place to fill people’s lives with music, whilst also remembering that we need to support our clubs and venues.”

The Missouri Republican will spend the last days of the election campaigning on behalf of the Ohio and Arizona candidates, hoping to gain allies against the mainstream wing of the party.

Josh Hawley doesn’t just want to flip the Senate by electing fellow Republicans Blake Masters and J.D. Vance. He wants to bend the entire GOP conference with a bloc of like-minded senators.
The Missouri senator, who helped convince both candidates to run, will go to Arizona on Friday for Masters, Ohio for Vance on Saturday and then finish the campaign on Monday in Missouri for GOP candidate Eric Schmitt.
The senator who led objections to President Joe Biden’s election win foresees a Senate GOP that is more confrontational toward large corporations and tech companies and less focused on Ukraine aid, and he’s convinced Vance and Masters have proven they’ll be allies in that endeavor.
Republicans have criticized aspects of both campaigns, arguing they didn’t do enough fundraising and took hardline positions that resonate better in primaries than in general elections. That only further persuaded Hawley, who said their persistence in the face of GOP reluctance gave him confidence that they “are going to have some backbone when they get to Washington, and are not going to be co-opted.”
“This is just the opening, the warm-up, in terms of the criticism that they’ll get if they stick to their guns. And they’ve shown me that they can,” Hawley said in an interview.
After Hawley encouraged them to run and backed them in contested primaries, former President Donald Trump ended up endorsing both candidates, propelling them to victory along with cash from GOP megadonor Peter Thiel. Now, if they get to the Senate, both Vance and Masters are proposing big showdowns with Biden over border security.
Hawley said Republican majorities should pass bills on border security and energy production, but that Republicans needed a tactical discussion on which “leverage point gives you the most pressure.” In 2018, Trump’s push for border wall money led to a 35-day partial government shutdown.
The Missouri senator drew stern internal blowback from GOP Leader Mitch McConnell on down for objecting to Biden’s electoral certification, while Republicans criticized him for his skepticism of some GOP judicial nominees. Hawley was the only vote against allowing Finland and Sweden into NATO and argues against “blank checks to Ukraine” as the country tries to fend off Russia.
Hawley envisions those positions will become more mainstream with prospective senators Vance and Masters, who “represent where the Republican Party is today.” In a statement for this story Masters said “Josh Hawley is brilliant and effective — the kind of Senator that I aim to be … I can’t wait to get to the Senate to join forces.”
And that means cutting against the party on proposals like using the debt limit to push for changes to Social Security and Medicare.
“That’s dumb,” Hawley said. “We need to do everything we can to keep them solvent for sure. But the idea of fiddling around with them and using those as leverage? I hope nobody’s seriously proposing that.”
Schmitt is a near shoe-in for election in Missouri, where Hawley supported Rep. Vicky Hartzler in the primary. Hawley said of Schmitt: “I’m going to close out the campaign with him, which says a lot about my priorities and my confidence in him.” Hawley’s other preferred candidates face less certain outcomes on election night.
Masters is facing an uphill climb in Arizona against Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly. The race is now close but not a must-win for Republicans to take the Senate. The party does need Ohio, however, and Vance currently narrowly leads the race for an open seat against Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), according to polls.
Heads up: We think Republicans are likely to win control of the House. But the Senate is still a toss-up.

Control of the Senate will come down to a few key states: Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, New Hampshire, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Plus, six election security threats to watch for as voters head to the polls.
Hawley is betting if they win the party will adjust accordingly.
“They do sound different than your … typical Republican candidate. And I think that’s a feature, that’s not a bug,” Hawley said. “For folks who are like, ‘Oh, I don’t know about these guys, maybe they’re too different.’ Oh, no. They’re not. They represent voters now.”
In a reference to Thiel, Izzi Levy, a spokesperson for Ryan, said that Hawley’s visit means “Vance is ending his campaign the same way he began it — leaning entirely on out-of-state allies to come in and prop him up.”
Luke Schroeder, a spokesperson for the Vance campaign, responded that for Vance “hitting the campaign trail with principled conservatives like Sen. Hawley is a great way for us to run up the score” on Election Day.

Construction is in review for the One Riverside apartments at the 1 Riverside Ave. residential and retail project in the Brooklyn area of Downtown at an estimated project cost of $83 million.
The city is reviewing permits for 270 apartments among Buildings 1000, 2000 and 2000B along with permits for an eight-story parking garage and the 2,600-square-foot amenity Building 3000.
Jacksonville-based Live Oak Contracting LLC is the contractor.
Live Oak plans Building 1000 at seven stories and 152 apartments; Building 2000, seven stories, with 73 units; and 2000B, with 45 units, at six stories; and the parking garage at eight levels.
Atlanta-based TriBridge Residential LLC broke ground Sept. 22 for the first phase of its riverfront apartment community.
Fuqua Development of Atlanta bought the 18.84-acre One Riverside property Feb. 4 for $25 million. It sold 4.3 acres to TriBridge for $15.5 million for the apartments. The Northbank property is next to the Acosta Bridge.
Fuqua Development intends to develop Whole Foods Market and other retail space, while the city will uncover and restore McCoys Creek and develop a public park.
One Riverside, designed for apartments, restaurants, retail stores and amenities, is expected to be a $250 million project.
For the apartments, Live Oak Contracting is the contractor; Dwell Design Studio of Atlanta is the architect; Prosser is the civil engineer; Banko Design is the interior apartment designer; and LandDesign is the landscape architect.
TriBridge Partner Katherine Mosley said at the groundbreaking that she anticipates completion of the first 270 units and a restaurant by year-end 2024.
She said the Riverwalk along the riverfront and the connection to the Brooklyn neighborhood will “really enforce the sense of community that the city’s done such a great job cultivating.”
Mosley said the one-bedroom units will average 750 square feet, the two-bedroom units will be 1,250 square feet and the three-bedroom units will run 1,400 square feet. She said rental rates have not been established.
Timing for a second phase of about 125 units depends on development benchmarks on the site.
Live Oak founder, President and CEO Paul Bertozzi said at the event that the first phase of the apartment construction is an $83 million project.
The One Riverside Jacksonville project is designed on the site where The Florida Times-Union daily newspaper operated. Pece of Mind Environmental Inc. of Orlando began razing the buildings in February.
The Times-Union campus was built in 1967. The Morris family bought the property and the newspaper in 1982 and sold the paper in 2017.
The paper’s staff moved to Wells Fargo Center Downtown in April 2019.
The Jacksonville City Council approved a $31.59 million incentives package Nov. 23 for One Riverside comprising property tax breaks, a forgivable restaurant loan and a parkland buyback to support the multiphase development.
The plan also restores McCoys Creek and adds land for the public park and submerged lands for river access on the east side of the property.
The city issued a site work permit Aug. 19 for TriBridge to clear its acreage and construction permits Aug. 29 and Aug. 30 for the foundations of the apartment buildings and the parking garage.
The St. Johns River Water Management District issued a permit July 1 for TriBridge Residential’s proposed first-phase apartment project along with the amenity building and a 130-seat restaurant and patio.
Plans filed Feb. 18 show TriBridge Residential’s two apartment buildings along the Riverwalk and St. Johns River.
Building 1000 is connected to the restaurant, which includes patio seating. The restaurant is in the apartment buildings but will be a shell and built-out by the tenant.
Building 2000 has a swimming pool along the river and a sky lounge rooftop area.
The eight-level, 625-space parking garage is between Building 2000 and a grocery store that will front Riverside Avenue.
The apartment amenity building is next to the garage. There is a proposed dog run near the Riverwalk, in addition to pedestrian plazas and public art.

Washington, D.C. Newsroom, Nov 3, 2022 / 16:30 pm
NPR listeners heard the sounds of a women’s abortion aired on radio Thursday.
“You’re going to hear this machine turn on now, okay, it makes a loud noise,” someone tells the unidentified Michigan woman who is 11 weeks pregnant.
The loud whir of the vacuum aspirator machine that will suck the unborn baby out begins — followed by the woman’s moaning. 
The segment aired during NPR’s “Morning Edition” in anticipation of Michigan’s upcoming vote on abortion during the midterm elections. For the program, Kate Wells of Michigan Radio spent more than a week with Northland Family Planning just outside Detroit to talk to patients — and witness an abortion.
At the beginning of the story, NPR issued a warning that some listeners would be disturbed by the story’s details. Wells, for her part, compared the abortion to giving birth.
“Most patients are partially awake during the procedures,” she describes. “They get IV medication for pain and anxiety. The lights are dimmed, there’s soothing music, it actually feels a lot like a childbirth, a medical gown, your bare legs in stirrups, and a person next to you saying, ‘You can do this.’”
In this instance, that person was a staffer named Brandee.
“Here’s my hand, just keep breathing,” she encourages the pregnant woman undergoing the abortion as she monitors vital signs. Wells called it an example of “women guiding other women.”
Throughout the abortion, Brandee kept encouraging the pregnant woman through her moans and heavy breathing.
“Blow it out, blow it out, breathe through it, breathe through it,” she says. “Keep breathing.”
At one point, Wells reports that the woman said she could not keep breathing through her painful cramps. Brandee tells her she can. The exchange is only described — and not aired — for listeners.
The abortion is done in a couple of minutes, Wells reports.
When the woman thanks everyone in the room, they start encouraging her, “You did good, you did great! You did just fine,” while laughing.
National pro-life leaders responded to the NPR segment.
“My prayer is often that the truth about abortion is ‘brought into the light’ but nothing prepared me for what this audio recording of an abortion would sound like,” March for Life President Jeanne Mancini tweeted. “What’s happening here is the taking of an innocent human life. Heartbreaking. No words.”
Live Action President Lila Rose emphasized, “This is what Hell sounds like.”
As president of Students for Life of America, Kristan Hawkins added on Twitter: “I hope the disgusted NPR listeners will never forget this sound and #voteprolifefirst on Tuesday.
SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser also brought up the midterm elections in response to NPR’s segment.
“Exposure to the harsh reality of abortion is important for voters as they consider their choices next Tuesday,” she said in a statement.
“This heartbreaking audio exposes the brutal truth about abortion — the destruction of unborn children and exploitation of their mothers for profit,” she added. “We can just imagine the last moments of the unborn child, who has a beating heart by six weeks, is forming unique fingerprints by 10 weeks, and can feel excruciating pain at least by 15 weeks. And we may never know the fate of the unnamed mother, but we know abortion can result in life-threatening complications and long-term emotional and mental health impacts.”
In an October story published by Michigan Radio, Wells went into more detail about the abortion. 
“It’s typical for patients to be awake during first-trimester abortions, especially when the patient doesn’t have underlying medical issues,” she reported. “It not only reduces the risk of complications and the costs to the patient (general anesthesia for an abortion in a hospital setting can cost thousands of dollars); it also means patients can go home the same day.”
She continued to describe what happens.
“Northland Family Planning gives every patient numbing medication applied to the cervix, and strong pain and anxiety medications (fentanyl and midazolam) administered intravenously,” she wrote. “Some patients also get a cervix softener a few hours before the procedure to make dilation easier, depending on how far along their pregnancy is.”

After a woman is fully relaxed, the OB-GYN “would use a speculum to view inside the patient’s vagina, then clean the vagina and cervix with gauze and antiseptic” and dilate the cervix, she added.
Wells described the vacuum aspirator, which was used on the unidentified Michigan woman, as a “machine [that] uses gentle suction to remove the pregnancy tissue from the patient’s uterus through a thin tube.”
She reported that the woman, after her abortion, said, “I hope I didn’t do too bad.” Wells added: “Brandee leaned close to her, their faces only inches apart. ‘Don’t you ever tell yourself what you can’t do again,’ she said, smiling.”

The Michigan Daily
One hundred and thirty-two years of editorial freedom
Eclectic folk artist Odie Leigh gives listeners a taste of all that she can be on debut EP, How Did It Seem To You. Leigh’s music is deeply founded in the blues and classic folk traditions of Louisiana, often featuring self-taught fingerpicking, simple strings and woodwinds. Leigh’s DIY music-production is enticing and sincere in a way that maintains all of the rawness vital to folk music. 
Leigh’s voice is wholly enthralling — her timbre is rich and dark, like a muddy brown; honey-sweet with a healthy amount of grit. The EP is meant to be heard on an old country porch, among swishing grasses and chirping crickets, with wood creaking underfoot. There is something about hearing the squeak of fingertips against wound-strings that makes the intention of the artist seem palpable. It’s almost as if you are in the room where it was written, cheek pressed to the wood body of an acoustic guitar, watching deft hands move in a quick, neat fingerstyle, feeling each strike reverberate through your skull. 
The EP opens with “A Month Or Two,” characterized by a melodic walking bass line that bounds from side to side. Here, Leigh’s voice and acoustic guitar are of the same lovely timbre and tones, monochrome browns, earthy and warm — they work quietly alongside each other before blooming into a chorus layered in soft strings and wispy backing vocals. Leigh sings of giving things time, replacing bad habits with new ones and the acute pain of a first heartbreak. 
From there, chirping birds welcome listeners into “Nine Lives,” a song about dissolving into another person, living your life for them and giving them everything you have. “Nine Lives” is about coming out of a relationship and realizing you saved nothing for yourself — you lost so much to the other person in sheer hope of loving them another day. Leigh paints such a pretty picture of misery that you might miss the poignant heartbreak here and think it a whimsical, woodsy love song. Delicately placed wind instruments act like a soft breeze moving through the treetops, rustling leaves and stirring up songbirds as her clear and resonant vocals trill and dip into a deep warm range.
“Habits Held” and “Take Back” lie on opposite ends of a bad relationship — “Habits Held” is about swapping old poisons for new ones and loving someone you know is no good, and “Take Back” is about reclaiming every ounce of yourself that you put into another person. Strings and layered voices feel almost cathartic — like a choir rising above the mix, lamenting the heartbreak that lives in these tracks.
“Crop Circles” is as mesmerizing as always, a familiar favorite that brought many listeners to Odie Leigh when released in March 2022. Themes of growing older, changing and fearing it deeply still ring true to listeners, and when placed in context with the entirety of How Did It Seem To You, I find myself even more enthralled with Leigh’s storytelling ability. 
Odie Leigh’s music always has such a wonderfully enticing spatial effect to it. Listeners can feel deeply involved in the stories she spins because it sounds as if she is right there alongside them. Leigh understands that good folk music creates a place to feel at home, music that can draw you in and hold you close. At its heart, music should be an intimate exchange between artist and listener, and How Did It Seem To You manages to give listeners Leigh’s whole heart.
