Taylor Swift Doubles (and Triples) Down on ‘Eras’ 2023 U.S. Stadium Tour Dates: Is Your City Getting Another Show? – Yahoo News

If you couldn’t score tickets to Taylor Swift‘s 2023 Eras Tour, don’t fret. On Friday (Nov. 11), the singer added 17 more shows to the 27-date U.S. tour that will celebrate all 10 of her studio albums released since 2006.

Taylor Swift Dropped 2 More Dance Floor-Ready ‘Anti-Hero’ Remixes

11/11/2022


After adding 8 more shows last week, Swift tacked on 17 more this morning, double (and tripling) down on some of the cities on the list, including Glendale (AZ), Las Vegas, Arlington (TX), Tampa, Houston, Atlanta, Nashville, Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Denver and Los Angeles.

With the addition of the new gigs to the now-52-date outing, Swift will now set up shop for five nights in L.A. at SoFi Stadium, where she is currently slated to wrap up her most extensive U.S. stadium run to date with shows on Aug. 3, 4, 5, 8 and 9.
Swift hasn’t hit the road since 2018, when she launched her best-selling Reputation Tour. She had planned on performing again after the release of her 2019 record Lover in a concert series called Lover Fest, but canceled the shows due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For those keeping score at home, this means that Tay has six albums-worth of new material that she’s never played live — if you include the previously unreleased vault tracks on 2021’s Fearless (Taylor’s Version) and Red (Taylor’s Version). Studio albums Folklore, Evermore and, of course her latest, Midnights, which have all also been released in the time between Lover and the Eras Tour.
Check out the new dates and opening acts below (check Swift’s Story for the full roster).

This 1 simple setup tweak will help you master 10 different shots – Golf.com

Join INSIDEGOLF and get $100 of value for $20!
Dropping your lead shoulder and leaning toward the target can be a useful technique.
GOLF.com
In golf, little changes can make a big difference, especially in your setup. One of my favorite examples of this truism is a minor setup adjustment that will help you improve your contact and consistency on a variety of different shot types — 10 of them, in fact!
Here’s how to do it:   
At address, slightly drop your lead shoulder and lean toward the target. If you picture a “T” down your spine and across your shoulders, the “T” should be tipped toward the target; this tilt will steepen the angle of your attack at impact and promote a lower ball flight. It’s a simple adjustment but it can be useful for each of the following shots:
A forward lean on shots around the green will produce lower, running chip shots. By definition, this shot will roll more than it carries. The lean de-lofts the face of the club and also helps the arc of your swing bottom out after impact. In addition this tilting forward, grip the club lower, take a narrower stance more narrow and keep your ball position relatively centered.
Forward lean promotes lower, running chip shots.
Angus Murray
Bump-and-runs require a slightly longer stroke than chips and with a less lofted club like a 7- or 8-iron. The ball will typically land short of the green and, like a chip, roll more than it carries. Leaning your “T” toward the target and keeping your weight forward through the stroke will produce a consistent result with little risk of poor contact.
Leaning forward and stopping your backswing at just above hip level will produce a driving, lower ball flight. Pair that move with a less lofted club and you’ll have a great shot option when you have a limited backswing length or are trying to keep the ball low to escape trouble.
For knockdowns, you’ll want to extend your backswing closer to shoulder height with the goal of keep your ball flight lower to have more control in the wind. Leaning toward the target and keeping your weight forward will produce this wind-piercing ball flight. Keeping your weight forward also helps to limit the length of your backswing.
When your ball is buried in the rough, it can be difficult to make clean contact because grass gets between the clubface and your ball. When you lean toward the target and your shoulder line becomes steeper as a result, your angle of attack naturally also becomes steeper, which will help the club make better contact. Keep in mind, when you lean you also de-loft the club face, so you make need to take a more lofted club to have enough clearance to carry any obstacles in front of you.
For this trouble shot, the leading edge must dig into the sand to get the ball out. When you lean toward the target not only do you steepen the angle of attack but you also engage the digging edge of your iron. This steepening may also result in a limited follow-through or finish, which is just fine!
Good luck!

Making clean contact from a divot requires similar technique to making clean contact from deep rough. Forward tilt will help the club approach the ball at a sharper angle to promote solid contact.
When your lead foot is lower than your trail foot, setting your body so that it matches the slope will help the club “sweep” down the hill, rather than hitting behind the ball. Setting your spine perpendicular to the hill and leaning toward the target will produce solid ball-first contact. Like many of the other shots covered, forward tilt will also produce a lower flight that can be offset by choosing a more lofted club.
The pros do it at Masters practice rounds — and you can, too! If you want to wow your golf pals, lean forward at address for a lower, skipping ball flight that allows the forward momentum that makes this gravity-defying flight possible.
Ever have those days where your swing is just off and you can’t find the clubface? We all do! A knockdown type setup and swing can be the plan B swing you need to survive the round and do the least amount of damage to your scorecard. The combination of shortening your swing and keeping your weight forward will help ensure better contact.

Sayles will also present a solo concert at 7 p.m. on Friday, October 28 in TU’s Marion Center. The concert is free and open to the public.
She will present a songwriting workshop on Tuesday, October 25 at 5 p.m. and a music production workshop on Thursday, October 27 at 2 p.m. Both workshops will be held in TU’s Performing Arts Lab.
“Regina is not just a great singer and performer, but she is also an amazing human being with the true heart of a teacher,” said Brad Rees, TU’s Vice Provost and Dean of Creative Arts. “We are so excited to see how our commercial music students will be inspired by her story, her music and the opportunity to collaborate with her in the studio.”
Based out of the burgeoning music scene of East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, Sayles plays more than 100 shows each year. She has shared the stage with female folk pioneer Tret Fure and female folk icon Ani Defranco and has opened for Pat Benatar, the Steve Miller Band, Frankie Ballard and Dan+Shea. Her high-energy and highly accessible originals and covers blend pop, jazz, rock and country, giving even the most diverse audience lots to enjoy.
In addition to her busy performance schedule, Sayles has an active music teaching studio.

Premiere: Mumbai Beatsmith Backclash Taps Into Late-Night Synth-Pop on 'Tu Aana' – Rolling Stone India

Sung by Anirudh Nimkar, the Hindi pop song is producer Aman Vanjani’s creation alongside co-producer SHMAR aka Pranay Gode

Mumbai-based producer Backclash aka Aman Vanjani teams up with singer-songwriter and friend Anirudh Nimkar for a roving, groovy new Hindi synth-pop song called “Tu Aana,” released via recently launched label and artists partnerships/A&R company Robach Music Group.
Backclash, who is also founder of his own Cali Recordings Studio, has been putting out music for more than five years but “Tu Aana” – co-produced by SHMAR aka Pranay Gode – marks new sonic exploration.
Vanjani says in a statement, “The song randomly came together early this year when I was sitting in the studio and wanted to produce something different. I was really inspired by the whole new pop synth wave style of music and thought of trying my hand at it with SHMAR. Anirudh Nimkar, a friend and a singer-songwriter heard the song and immediately started to flow on it in Hindi, and it sounded really catchy! I was a bit hesitant as I’d never made a Hindi song before but the vocals fit perfectly with the track, and here we are.”
The artist, who recently returned from after studying sound engineering and music production in London, has previously released songs like “Never A Goodbye” and “Can’t You,” plus “I Don’t Wanna Fall In Love.” While all of those amply showcased an undeniable influence of electronic and electronic/pop artists like Kygo and Calvin Harris, “Tu Aana” swerves more towards late-night drive soundtrack territory, just as its lyric video suggests. Unsurprisingly, Vanjani credits travel and nature as “two forces driving his shift in sound.” He adds in his statement, “‘Tu Aana’ is special to me since it’s my first Hindi song but it’s my brand of music, which is equal parts chilled and euphoric. I’m thrilled and anxious simultaneously to move in this new direction.”

TOP VST's PRODUCERS MUST HAVE IN 2022!!! ONLY THE BEST!!!

Hearing Aide: 'Aimless' by Alex Nahas – NYSMusic


The Chapman Stick is the instrument of the absurd, of the surreal, even the extraterrestrial. It encompassed the strangeness of King Crimson when Tony Levin played it on “Elephant Talk.” It encompassed the strangeness of space when Gurney played it in David Lynch’s original “Dune.” In “Aimless,” by Chapman Stick specialist Bright Brown, the instrument encompasses the strangeness of just being alive. 
Bright Brown is Alex Nahas’ solo project, where he focuses on recasting the Chapman Stick from its previous role as novelty instrument of the prog-rock era to spine of a song and counterpart to a songwriter. 

Alex Nahas chapman stick
Alex Nahas

The Chapman Stick was devised in the late ’70s by Emmet Chapman, a jazz guitarist who wanted to expand his two-handed tapping technique on guitar. Think of the Stick as a guitar and a bass at once, but also a piano, and also a drum. The instrument has 10 to 12 strings, each tuned differently, and no sound hole, just a long neck that can adhere to a belt loop. The fretboard is flatter than a guitar with sensitive pickups, because it is mostly tapped rather than strung. 
The Stick first found its way into Nahas’ hands 30 years ago, at Pierce Community College in California, where Emmet Chapman himself bequeathed a used Chapman Stick to Nahas after Chapman gave a performance on campus. 
Nahas started bringing the instrument to band practice. He was still figuring out how to use it and integrate it into songs, with not much to go off of, since the instrument isn’t really brought out in contemporary music as much as it was closer to its invention. Nahas said the Stick was often overshadowed in the mainstream because rock music was so defined by its band structure: guitar, bass, keyboard, lead singer.
“As a result, a lot of music sounds kind of formulaic, and the Stick allowed me to break the rules,” Nahas said.
But there is a new generation of Chapman Stick players swimming upstream to keep the eclectic instrument alive. 
Dan “Chef” Zahal, a second year bass student at Berklee, has been teaching himself to play a Chapman Stick with 12 strings since he was a senior in highschool. He said he hasn’t been able to find any faculty at the music school to integrate his studies on the Chapman Stick into any legitimate classroom environment, but Zahal plays the stick in his band, Trophy Husband. He said part of a reason for the rarity of Stick players is because of the dizzying prospects for inventing sound through electronic music production.
“The whole technical aspect was a lot bigger in the 70s and the 80s with bands like King Crimson and Rush. It was all about who could play the coolest lines, the flashiest, the cleanest,” Zahal said. “A lot of more modern music is based on, because we have a lot of shortcuts in production and studio, who can manipulate those the best.”

In the way that producers can employ techniques from a variety of instrumental groups on an electronic program such as Ableton or Logic, the Chapman Stick employs dexterity and intricacy to create new sounds using both rhythm and melody in tandem. Because of its multifunctionality, both musicians found the instrument’s capabilities keep expanding as they study it. Zahal has been using drum rudiments in his playing recently, treating each hand — one on the guitar side of the Stick and one on the bass — as a hand in a drum line. Nahas also is inspired by the percussive elements of the Stick.
“Its very nature is percussive because you hammer onto it. So there’s that attack from the fingers,” Nahas said. “You can emphasize that and be really simple and routine, or you can move the notes around and, by playing a little lighter, make it sound more melodic.”
Alex Nahas has released three albums and two EPs under Bright Brown; “Aimless” is the first single to come from his next album, releasing in January. But when Nahas picked up the Stick it wasn’t immediately apparent to him how best to express his art with it, until he started letting the Stick lead. 
“As I started writing, I thought ‘Oh, what if I approach this instrument as the core of the song, as the thing I write on, like it was a piano. And as soon as I started doing that, it made a lot more sense to me, and I haven’t put it down since,” Nahas said.

Gurney Halleck plays an Emmet Chapman piece on the Chapman Stick (called in the film a ‘Baliset’) in an extended scene from David Lynch’s “Dune.”

Nahas began forming bands around songs he wrote on the Stick, and Nahas’ playing took on its own life. While Tony Levin plays the Stick mostly on the bass side, so the sound can sometimes be twangy and rapid, Nahas’ playing more resembles a piano; it’s tender and earnest.
That tenderness is what makes the instrumental loops in “Aimless” so addicting. It’s a vague, wandering, circular song, that exploits both sides of the Stick, to fill you up with emotion and let you down easy with cathartic lyricism. Nahas started the song as just a little improvised lick back in early 2020, before the pandemic even started. 
Once the pandemic settled in, the song’s lyrics took on new life: “Why take aim / because aimless is drifting / and drifting’s easier / easier brings peace / till it lies in pieces / and so we go / into our silence.” 
He recorded the song and his upcoming album at his friend’s studio in Joshua Tree, California. Members of his first band, Eddie Avakian and Jamie Muhoberac played drums and keyboards, respectively; and Ava Nahas, Alex’s sister, was on percussion. This intimate group and the flat, stark, vast landscape of Joshua Tree is infused into “Aimless;” heard in the clarity of production and seen in the album’s cover art — an iPhone picture Nahas himself took on a break from recording. 
“It has a real openness to it, that I probably wouldn’t have gotten writing in my tiny little apartment and recording it there,” Nahas said. “ The songs have patience to them. And, a sort of ease about them. It’s always been my goal to just let the song lead me through it.” 
“Aimless” is out Friday, November 11.

MTI Acquires Licensing Rights for Stage Version of 1660 VINE – Broadway World

Theatrical licensor Music Theatre International (MTI) has announced that a stage version of the movie musical 1660 Vine has joined the MTI catalogue.
Presented by Witzend Productions and PhilmCo Media, in association with ASPIRE and Streaming Musicals, 1660 Vine follows a group of influencers as they take up residence in a famed Hollywood apartment building to pursue their dreams of social media stardom. Voiced by an original script and score written by a diverse group of young songwriters, the various characters of 1660 Vine confront questions of fame, influence, identity and mental health. While the residents update their followers through vlogs, gaming streams, makeup tutorials, TikTok dances, songs and pranks, they navigate their search for identity, discovering the difference between what is authentic and what is curated. The musical film is currently available to watch on Streaming Musicals, Broadway On Demand and other platforms here.
1660 Vine is an ensemble tale torn from today’s headlines, created by a diverse team of 20-somethings who have brought their own authentic life experiences into the book- writing and songwriting processes.
Directed by Patricia McGregor – Artistic Director of the New York Theater Workshop – the film was choreographed by superstar entertainer Paula Abdul, with music supervision from the team that oversaw the “High School Musical” franchise, and a cast that has more than 38 million followers and 4 billion views.
A pilot production of the stage musical will be performed December 9-11 at Hollywood High School in Los Angeles.
Jackson Prince, who wrote the screenplay and who initiated this project while a student at Duke University, said of 1660 Vine, “We conceived of a story that speaks to the opportunities and challenges that young people face in this social-media-obsessed world. I’m excited to see how high schoolers, college students, and other stage artists of all generations will bring their own experiences and reflections to the show.”
Drew Cohen, President and CEO of Music Theatre International stated, “We are very excited to represent this brand-new musical based on an already-successful motion picture. Embracing the world of the lifestyle influencer proved to be both timely and clever, but empowering the influencers themselves to create the content was brilliant, given that content-creation is what they do best. It will be exciting to see 1660 Vine on stages of all sizes around the world.”
1660 Vine is primed for a buzzy landing into a social media friendly landscape, moving audiences of all generations with authentic and important stories about the social media generation… all to the beat of a joyful, passionate soundtrack of original songs.
Lakeshore Records will release an original cast recording on all major streaming platforms on Nov 11th.

Willamette Master Chorus returns for first full in-person season since 2020 – Salem Reporter

Salem, Oregon News
After a pandemic hiatus and shift to virtual concerts, the Salem area’s premier vocal ensemble is back for a regular season.
The Willamette Master Chorus will kick off its 2022-23 performance season with its 18th Annual Veteran’s Concert on Nov. 12 and 13.
The chorus includes vocalists from throughout the Willamette Valley. The performers must audition to be part of the group, which has been around for 38 concert seasons. 
“Our ‘19-20 season would have ended with a May concert and we canceled that with Covid, and then our 2021 season was entirely virtual,” administrator Jessica Carpenter said. “We had one free concert in February that was just open seating and with lots of masks and other requirements, and then we had a small seats concert in May.” 
The virtual concerts included individual videos of each ensemble member edited together. Now, audience members will see the ensemble’s full return standing side-by-side. The chorus will perform this weekend in Hudson Hall on Willamette University’s campus at 900 State St. in Salem Saturday and Sunday at 3 p.m. according to a press release.
This veterans concert will feature a 45-minute piece called “Miserere Songs of Mercy and Redemption,” which was written in 2019 by the emerging Welsh composer Sir Karl Jenkins.
“This work is based on verses from Psalm 51 and is dedicated to all who have suffered or perished during conflicts in the Middle East and other parts of the world,” the release said.
In addition to the regular chorus, students from the Salem-Keizer, Dallas, Silver Falls and Stayton school districts will join in as part of the WMC High School Honor Choir. Students from across these districts are recommended by their teachers to be part of the choir, said Carpenter, and there are about 20 students participating this year. 
There are six other concert dates for programs in December, February and May which will include collaborative performances and work including other groups such as the Trail Band Sextet and the bluegrass-style Severin Sisters. 
This season will also feature a special change of scenery for the final concert of the year. 
“About every four years we go up to the Mt. Angel Abbey, so our main concert in 2023 will be at Mount Angel, which is really a treat for everybody who hasn’t been there before because they get to perform in one of their really beautiful buildings,” Carpenter said. 
Box office and will call open at 2:30 pm each day, for this weekend’s shows. Tickets are $22-$33 and available online or at the box office.For more information about the upcoming season, or to purchase tickets for this weekend’s shows visit www.willamettemasterchorus.org or call 503-580-0406.

Her husband, Steven Collier, reported her missing around 6 p.m. the day earlier. She was a discovered few feet downhill from the site of a small fire, with burns on her stomach, soot in her nostrils and clutching at a small tree.
DEBBIE COLLIER: WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION
Collier was last seen alive at a Family Dollar store on Sept. 10, purchasing several items that were found burned near her remains. She also stopped by a Chick-fil-A restaurant beforehand, the sources noted.
The missing person report came after she sent a bizarre Venmo payment to her daughter, Amanda Bearden, of almost $2,400 along with the cryptic message: "They are not going to let me go love you there is a key to the house in the blue flowerpot by the door."
TIMELINE OF DEBBIE COLLIER DEATH INVESTIGATION, ACCORDING TO POLICE
Bearden and her boyfriend had moved back to Athens from Mayland just a few days before her disappearance. 
FOX 5 shows new development in the mysterious death of Debbie Collier. Surveillance footage shows her just hours before she was found dead.
She recalled being at the scene when investigators made the discovery.
"They were maybe in those woods ten minutes and the police officer came back and he said, ‘Come here.’ And I knew…," she told the podcasters.
At first, authorities said they were investigating her death as a homicide, but have since backtracked.
She says her mother was depressed, and had given away some of her possessions days before her death. 
Bearden denied any involvement in her mother's death.
She told the podcaster she's already provided investigators with a sample of her DNA. 
She said rumors and online speculation have hurt her relationship with her family.
All my family turned against me. So, I get it thinking, you know, ‘This girl’s crazy.’ But they’re horrible awful human beings and I pray that the trauma and the pain that I had to go through when the police do make this press conference, which they told me that they will, I hope you don’t do this to another family," Bearden said during the podcast live-stream.
Debbie Collier’s daughter said she received a note from her mother that scared her around the time investigators say Collier was seen on security video.
Bearden says law enforcement seized money from a Venmo payment her mother sent to her the day of her death.
They've since released it back to her.
Authorities have not yet released the autopsy report, toxicology results or her official cause and manner of death.
The FBI and GBI continue to investigate Collier's death.

Who actually holds the world record for most golf played in a year? It's worth a closer look – GolfDigest.com

Memorial Park Golf Course
Golfers We Like
Six years ago I had the pleasure of playing alongside avid golfer Barry Gibbons. Only avid doesn’t even begin to describe this retired IBM VP of Sales. Barry doesn’t play rounds of golf, he devours them like his beloved tubs of chocolate ice cream.
I met up with Gibbons on, what was for him, a typical day. He had completed a morning 18 at Ridgefield (Conn.) Golf Course. We played a middle 18 together and then I left him for his final loop of the day. Again, this was a typical day for him. Ernie Banks famously said, “Let’s play two,” but that wouldn’t be enough golf for Gibbons, who would go onto play an unofficial world record of 878 rounds that year. And consume an undisclosed amount of ice cream at night. Hey, when you spend all day every day walking, you deserve to treat yourself.
RELATED: Our day with the world’s most avid golfer
I hadn’t thought much about Barry the past few years until a Wisconsin man named Nolan Krentz made headlines by becoming the latest golfer to break the record for the most golf in a calendar year by playing 17,820 holes or 990 rounds—an accomplishment chronicled by Wisconsin.Golf’s Gary D’Amato and that resulted in Krentz recently receiving a plaque commemorating the feat. But as impressive as this new mark was—especially considering Krentz isn’t retired and he basically did it all in Wisconsin—I found myself defending my guy Barry for doing it on longer 18-hole courses (Krentz plays a nine-holer, Norsk Golf Club in Mount Horeb) and for carrying his own bag. Krentz uses a push cart. What a slacker. (Kidding!)
Apparently, others were thinking about Barry, too. And it prompted him to contact me all these years later.
“It irritates me that I have all these friends blowing up my phone telling me this guy beat my record!” Gibbons said.
Wait a minute. So Nolan Krentz doesn’t have the record?
That’s right, folks. Apparently, Gibbons shattered his own mark in 2020. And he didn’t even bother to tell me about it. A quick Google search, though, shows he told a couple other people, including the National Golf Foundation, who acknowledged his mark last March. C’mon, Barry! You gotta give me that scoop!
Anyway, it turns out Barry was motivated by another golfer, Yancy Methvian, who had topped Gibbons’ mark with 911 rounds of golf played in 2019. After hearing that, Gibbons decided to put the record out of reach by playing more than 100 rounds per month in 2020. He wound up playing an astonishing 1,235 rounds.
Yep, that’s ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FIVE rounds of golf in a single year. Heck, I was happy breaking the 30-round mark in 2022. As Gibbons neared the finish line his goal was 1,234 because it sounded better, but he just couldn’t help himself from playing one final round. What a nut.
Suddenly, Krentz’s 17,820 holes had been topped by Barry’s 22,230. Well, had already been topped. And the rest of the numbers surrounding Barry’s year-long accomplishment are just as amazing.
Playing all of his golf in Austin, where he and his wife (yes, he has a wife and four grown kids) are members at The Hills at Lakeway, Gibbons averaged 3.4 rounds per day. He only took three days off the entire year. And that wasn’t by choice.
“Two days were washed out due to weather,” the 63-year-old Gibbons says, “but I also took a rest on Christmas day.”
Gibbons also wore a Fitbit during every round and walked an absurd total of 8,424 miles. He took 16,824,607 steps while burning 1,749,289 calories. He spent a total of 3,561 hours on the golf course, which comes out to nearly 10 hours per day(!) and more than 148 full days of playing. And would you look at all the golf shoes he went through!
Unfortunately, Barry believes his Herculean effort did long-term damage to his knees so he’s really cut back on his golf. You know, to only one round per day. As a result, he’s cut back on the ice cream as well.
"When you’re not playing three rounds per day," Gibbons says, "you have to watch your weight."

Like Krentz, Gibbons’ milestones haven’t been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records, which requires witnesses for every round among other things. Well, I witnessed one round, and I can assure you that Barry is the real deal. He also keeps a spreadsheet with information from all of his rounds.
But despite being in contact with Guinness and submitting paperwork, Gibbons says it hasn’t been good enough for official recognition, and he shares Krentz’s frustration in that. But to be clear, he doesn’t wish to share the record for most golf played in a year with anyone.
“I’d like to get in contact with the guy in Wisconsin,” Gibbons said. “I’d tell him, ‘Maybe next year.’”
He’s joking—to an extent. Actually, both Gibbons and Krentz asked me about contacting each other. Clearly, they have a lot in common—and a lot of admiration for each other so there’s no controversy here. Also, you can make a case that they both deserve their own records.
Gibbons has played and walked the most, but Krentz only has about a nine-month window in Wisconsin to get his golf in compared to the Barry’s year-round course access in Texas. And at 31, Krentz, a grocery store worker and high school golf and basketball coach, doesn’t have as much free time as the retired Gibbons.

By the way, they both putt everything out and are really good players. Gibbons had an average score of 78.46 for his 1,235 rounds and Krentz says he’s a scratch at his home course, where his best score was a six-under-par 30.
So both deserve plenty of recognition for all the (good) golf they’ve played. In any event, Krentz doesn’t seem too broken up over not having broken the rounds/holes played record.
“It’s really for my own personal satisfaction,” says Krentz, who added it was a couple great members at his club who pushed for him to be recognized. “So no, I’m not bothered by him having the record in the slightest. It’s just, you know, if I was at 10,000 holes, my goal the next year would be 10,001.”
Or, 17,821, because Krentz is actually on pace to top his mark this year. So Wisconsin weather permitting, he will. It just won’t be enough to catch Barry Gibbons. For now.

Powerball ticket sold in California snags record $2.04 billion win – Florida Courier

Cloudy skies this evening will become partly cloudy after midnight. Low 67F. Winds light and variable..

LOS ANGELES — Someone who bought a Powerball ticket in Southern California has won a record $2.04 billion Powerball jackpot after more than three months without anyone hitting the top prize.
The winning numbers were selected Tuesday morning, nearly 10 hours after the scheduled Monday night drawing because of problems processing sales data at one of the game’s member lotteries. Lottery officials acknowledged the unprecedented delay for such a high-profile drawing but said the game’s security process took precedence.
“Protecting the integrity of the draw is of utmost importance, and we were able to do that during this historic drawing with the cooperation of all participating lotteries,” said Drew Svitko, the chairman of the Powerball Product Group and executive director of the Pennsylvania Lottery.
On Tuesday afternoon, the Minnesota Lottery acknowledged their sales verification system caused the lengthy delay.
The winning numbers drawn Tuesday morning at the Florida Lottery draw studio in Tallahassee were: white balls 10, 33, 41, 47 and 56, and the red Powerball was 10.
The jackpot ticket was sold at Joe’s Service Center in Altadena, an unincorporated community in the foothills northeast of Los Angeles. For selling the winning ticket, business owner Joe Chahayed will receive a maximum Powerball bonus of $1 million.
“I’m very surprised. Very excited. Very happy,” said Chahayed, who wore a bright yellow California Lottery shirt and cap.
Chahayed said he didn’t know who won the giant prize but hopes it’s someone local.
“I wish I knew the person but most people who buy tickets from me are from the neighborhood. I hope one of them will be the winner,” he said.
Chahayed said he would spend his $1 million on his five children and donate some to the community.
Under California rules, the name of the winner must be disclosed but no other information, including the winner’s address, has to be be made public.
Thomas Murrell said he had stopped at Joe’s Tuesday morning with the intention of buying gas and $200 worth of Powerball tickets, in case no one had won the giant jackpot.
“I know Joe. I’ve known him for years and talk to him all the time,” Murrell said. “Joe’s always been a lucky guy. He’s a good guy. I’m not surprised it happened here.”
The $2.04 billion jackpot was by far the largest lottery prize ever won, topping the previous record $1.586 billion prize won by three Powerball ticketholders in 2016. Only four previous jackpots have topped $1 billion, but none of those are close to the current prize, which started at $20 million back on Aug. 6 and has grown over three winless months. No one has won the jackpot since Aug. 3.
The jackpot was initially reported as an estimated $1.9 billion on Monday, but the prize was increased to $2.04 billion Tuesday morning after updated calculations.
The Multi-State Lottery Association said the scheduled drawing was delayed from 10:59 p.m. EST Monday to 8:57 EST a.m. Tuesday because a participating lottery wasn’t able to process its sales data. After Minnesota completed its pre-draw procedures, the drawing was able to go ahead.
Marie Hinton, a Minnesota Lottery spokeswoman, said the lottery was reviewing what happened.
Terry Rich, a former director of the Iowa Lottery who also served on the Powerball board, said the delay was likely due to a two-part verification system of ticket sales that makes use of an outside vendor to ensure all is in order before the game’s numbers are drawn.
“Each state must verify through a dual process that all of the sales and dollars match before the Multi-State Lottery Association can do the draw,” said Rich, who headed the Iowa Lottery for 10 years and was president of the North American Lottery Association. “This is a state-by-state procedure, which separates the whole process and has been very effective.”
Rich said state lotteries deal with similar problems several times a year but the delays usually don’t attract much attention because the potential jackpots are far less than was up for grabs this week.
The winning numbers and recorded video of the drawing were posted to the Powerball’s YouTube channel.
The $2.04 billion prize is for a winner who chooses an annuity, paid annually over 29 years. Nearly all winners instead opt for cash, which was valued at $997.6 million.
The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
The game is played in 45 states, as well as Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Quora User's Chole Bhature Business Idea Over Job Gets Surprisingly Positive Response – News18

By: Buzz Staff
Local News Desk
Last Updated: November 10, 2022, 14:24 IST
Delhi, India
A lot of people also earn a bomb by opting for these unconventional professions.
The idea of success is subjective as it differs from person to person. While working 9-5 corporate jobs is considered one of the safest ways to earn a living, the concept of unconventional careers is becoming increasingly popular in recent times. From content creation and music production to travel blogging and bartending, the sources of income have become more diverse over the years.
A lot of people also earn a bomb by opting for these unconventional professions. However, would you leave your high-paying job to sell Chole Bhature outside a railway station? Yes, you read that right. Recently, an anonymous user got Quora talking after they asked this question on the social question-and-answer website.
The user asked the online fraternity, “Would it be the right decision to leave my job that has a package of Rs 8 lakhs per annum and put up a Chole Bhature stall outside the station?” One might assume that other users would have trolled the person for asking this question on Quora. However, much to one’s surprise, people supported the decision and even tried answering how it would be more profitable for them to open a Chole Bhature stall rather than continuing their current job.
One user penned an extensive note, where he presented a hypothesis. According to him, one could earn as much as Rs 71,250 a month by opening a food stall instead of making Rs 62,666 of the Rs 80,000 salary after all the professional deductions. He even cited the example of MBA Chai Wala, who had dropped out of his MBA course to start a tea stall that is highly popular across the country now, in his note.
Others told the user that the kind of job doesn’t matter if it pays them well. They also advised him to go ahead and set up the stall if he’d be happy doing so.
