Countdown to the 2022 pro bowl

My first client went really smoothly. No issues at all. This is my second time booking someone for a drop in visit. The owner seems relaxed. Met their dog today. No real issues for me with the dog. There are some red flags however?
First
The owners return date is tentative? They’ll most likely be back the 11th of July. originally the owner scheduled the 2nd-10th. From what I’ve gathered talking with them they won’t be back till the 12th and wants me to visit the 11th. I think they assume it’s a solid rate vs per each visit. I’m not too sure how to go about the communication with him About that like will I be the asshole? (Right or wrong) it just seems like to me he wants a set rate for the days he’s requesting?
Second
I think the dog is a mix? Not sure client has it set as an American Staffordshire Terrier. When speaking to Client they referred to the canine I’d be sitting as a “pit” not sure it matters since they’d only be in their enclosure and I don’t have issues with Pit Bull dogs or their mixes.
Third
The owner technically has a cat, though outdoor in nature. They want me to just make sure the cat food bowls are filled / water provided. However the owner only selected the dog for what animals I’d be watching. Is that something I should charge for or bring up? I’m sure rover coverage wouldn’t apply if the cat wasn’t added on. Side note I do see the owner has the cat in question as a registered pet of theirs rover
Fourth
“It shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes. You don’t have to be there the whole 30” this just doesn’t seem right to me?
Fifth (possibly not relevant?)
Client is also having some card issues and was saying something about them having issues with payment.
Hmmm other than that the job doesn’t seem to weird?

VERY LONG I AM SORRY.
From Dec19 to April22 I was in a relationship, which I'd tried several times to fix, leave, change. I know I played a part in the huge amount of toxicity. Due to working in a public space, I'm having to watch my ex repeat the same behaviour and it is triggering emotions.
Brief timeline of major events to where I know I needed to leave: - 2 weeks into relationship they were fired as they didn't go into work but failed to call in sick. Claimed it my fault as I'd kept them up late. - Showed 'proof' of savings and hold account of monies due from inheritance house sale so allowed to move in with me to save money - unemployed 3 months, got new job for 3 weeks before covid furlough, made redundant in July and didn't seek work until April following year (8 months + 3 months. 11 months out of 17 months unemployed) - When they got a new job, they said they got paid double their salary, monthly. It was infact weekly. Refused bills help month 1 due to 'deserving a treat' and then 2nd month lies came out. He'd spend everything he'd earnt.
Summary of lies: - Falsified University degree, other qualifications and employment history (let me make a CV on lies) and pretended to apply for jobs under this, instead he wasn't trying. - Had no savings, had no inheritance. Moved in knowing couldn't afford to pay me. - Lied about competing in sports, lied about martial art training, drug use, steriod use and tried to force this on me too - He cut off his family, telling me he hated them and then met them in private behind my back and told them I wouldn't let him see them - Falsified holidays, places he'd lived and people he knew (to back up relationships and university that didn't happen)
Issues: - Victim complex. Any breakup wasn't his fault. He acted like a victim of child abuse but friends+locals state spoiled. He said he was depressed. He cut off sex largely, would only be interested if I had to be up early for events. He cancelled on friends or bad mouthed them then said he was lonely. - Poor self care, personal hygiene, house cleanliness. I was responsible for finances, household duties, ensuring he got up, attended appointments, had clothes to wear (lay them out) - Financial abuse: would not cover lost money for time taken off, did not save monies to pay me ahead so my entire salary working part time and being a student went to living costs and if I needed things during the month I had to ask him for money as I had nothing left. If I saved student finance for treats e.g. festival tickets, a tattoo, planned well in advance and budgeted, he said I had caused the money issues but 80% of his income fueled junk food and betting. - When I got drunk and went out, he'd make up stories the next day of things I'd done which weren't true, to make me feel shameful - When I tried to kill myself, he turned it into how he struggled and was angry people weren't checking he was ok
---‐------ the post break up
He didn't stop lying. I was given bad advise to not over react, and feel this was done due to persons bias
I couldn't let go of the lying. If he lied to people infront of me, I would point it out. He called this public shaming, but after so much hurt I just could not sit back and accept when he lied!
We had been in an open relationship. I had actively been on dates, my ex told me he was always polyamorous. He set those boundaries. However, after the lies and attempted break ups, I began to secretly see my now partner, who was also mid exiting a relationship and therefore could not disclose. The affair is wrong, and is what makes him look a victim. He was my support network in trying to escape, and I don't regret it.
Over 2021, I broke up with my ex in July, August, September, October (after he purposely ruined my birthday by spending our money behind my back, and refusing to do anything), December. By 2022 - January, February, very much so pleaded for help and him to go every other day in March, then finally he accepted it in April. The whole time, things were toxic. I was much moved on, and he wouldn't go.
My mental health plumitted in the time we were together between April 2020 to October 2021. I blame the toll of being his forced carer when I have my own issues, and the spiteful things he'd do, for the decline in my wellbeing - my mental assessments advised me to leave, and confirmed his actions were part of my stress and anxieties.
In the July 2022, the affair came out at an event. Post breakup. Our mutual friends found out.
I was drunk and given drugs (I won't justify, but this is only time in my life). People allowed him to force me home despite my protest. He forcibly strangled me pushed down on the bed, door closed. He had let two people enter the home by leaving door unlocked and telling them to come - once he went to leave after he stopped pinning me down, I bit him. This was as he was exiting the room and all the saw. What he had done to me was behind a shut door, and therefore I was labelled as abusive and the iniator. This was reactive, and he knew my history and was aware locking me a room and pinning me down would be a trigger (he knew my past), and timed it perfectly so my reaction would be seen only.
Since then, I've been largely sober for 2023 (drank once). I refuse to make this mistake again.
AFTER THE PHYSICAL INTERACTION. He still refused to move out somewhere I'd lived 5 years before him as was the sole tenant of. We argued daily. I recorded our arguments due to threats of violence, admittance of disturbing behaviours, lies about other people. He told me my relatives were dying when they weren't. I have the proof.
In April 2022 to November 2022 he refused to not be naked around me. I slept mostly on my sofa, as he wouldnt leave the bed. The short duration I used my room, he came into the bed even after I'd had major surgery. During my recovery he faked a back injury so he could justify staying in bed with me, and took time off work falsely. I saw him walking fine in public (he didn't know) when my actual partner took me out for a recovery walk.
He would go to people's houses when I was out at work or with my own friends, and claim he'd left for safety as I was beating him (even though on social media it was clear I was not home!!), he made fake bank documents to try show he had paid for everything. He acted as though me putting up a privacy wall in the one bedroom apartment, and keeping my own toiletries aside was emotional abuse vs telling the truth it was due to him being naked when I'd asked him not to, refusal to leave, and use of my belongings without replacing it. To this day, many people who fell for his lies still tell others that I physically and emotionally abused him which all accounts other than the one night witnessed, can be disproven. If I did hit him, why did he come back? Why didn't he leave? He tried to arrange for help to ransack my belongings which fortunately fell through, and tried to get my utilities turned off even though he still wouldn't leave.
I contacted the local authority.
I finally issued an eviction notice after I found he posted my nudes to Fab Swingers, and was offering me and himself out for sex the whole time and had updated private nudes of my genitals etc in the Nov/December 2022. My partner began staying with me until he was gone. We stayed in the living room until he vacated the bedroom in February. Due to his own separation and having children, he felt unable to take forceful action and remove my ex himself. We had to play it strategically.
I legally couldn't evict him as he had been on council tax list and council advised me of this, without filing for the revenge porn or filing it under domestic abuse. He also sent my nudes around his workplace.
---------- PRESENT TIME
Now. He is still telling people we are together, 14 months on. That I'm seen with my boyfriend due to the open relationship. Yet, selling a sob story to new female victims of his lies how I made him homeless.... he had 10 months to move out!! And knew I wanted out 17 months before he was forced. He literally stayed put whilst I slept with my boyfriend in the other room?!
My new colleague began only last week and he's spending hours talking to her and I've overhead him bad mouthing me, bad mouthing my business, discouraging clients, promoting his own ego of success. As it is a place of work for me, I can't cause conflict. The simple comment of telling the new colleague he isn't the nationality he said, set him off on the sorrow stories.
I have zero idea what to do or how to react. I know I was wrong for the affair, but I really did try to leave for months without outing (due to the other persons request), I got him medical help, got him an autism diagnosis. I feel any abuse towards him was reactive to lie manipulation and being trapped. He wouldn't go. Even having physically broken up with him, he'd touch me, be in my space, kick off when I didn't fulfill his needs attention wise. He manipulated almost 9 months extension from pure refusal of appectance.
Do I have right when I was also wrong, to kick off? I feel in every part of my being what he did is abuse, and I have no evidence that he strangled me before i hit him back to support i wasnt the iniator.
He actively pays a membership and chooses to attend where I work. I can't have him banned without good reason. I feel using the lying will make me appear jealous, vengeful and petty to others. I don't want to make my partner look stupid, if people see me responding to my exes behaviour, as it is him flirting, of such, it'll look like jealousy rather than an emotional response of hurt, hearing him tell the lies and play the same game all over again.

Now it's time to look at the Leaders! Notre Dame isn't in a conference; however, I will include them with the Big 10 Leaders just to keep all of the remaining P5 teams together. The year in parenthesis is the date each team last played each other. As always if I missed any dates or matchups, please let me know!

I am somewhat urgently in need of a stand-alone proposal tool. By stand-alone I basically mean something that doesn’t require me to change/integrate my entire tech stack (like Orion would.)
The need: To create a proposal for an UHNW client that will provide analytics and stats on both a portfolio AND account level, as well as allow me to make recommendations on both levels.
Without explaining in detail WHY each of these aren’t working, here’s what I have access to and am striking out.
Morningstar Investor is too simple (Advisor workstation is cost prohibitive at $3,600)
Riskalyze (with “Stats” add on)
Moneyguide Pro (but not Elite… does that do deeper proposals?)
Would YCharts do what I need? Any idea will be much appreciated. I’m super frustrated and grumpy at the current moment.
Thanks

I have ~175k in student loans (still in school, I will have ~225k in loans when I graduate). 23k Auto loan in june 2022 always have made my payments on time. The only bills I have are for my car and medications/doctors visits. I’m
I’ve done a bit of research on YouTube about CC and good ones for beginners, so I applied to 1 and got denied and tried again a couple weeks ago and got denied again.
My credit score isn’t fabulous because I don’t have much credit history, but it’s definitely not bad either. I don’t know why I’m getting denied because my student loans don’t show up on my total debt, only my car debt, per Experian.
Any advice or personal experiences?

Hi friends, I'm a noob
I picked up division 2 on stream sales and having a lot of fun with it. I look around on youtube for guides and stuff and saw these beautifully customized build you guys have. I got to end game and got overwhelmed by all the things to do. So here goes my question...

1. what should I focus on after reaching lv.40 and finished newyork? I went and try to finished the map (the invaded stuff) but I feel underpowered, I tried to farm builds and youtube send me to go get carried at 'countdown' but i think everyone has the same idea, we all bots with shd lv under 500. I tried it 3 times and got the same result.
2. how do you get max attribute on gear? I know how to recalibrate and how library works but after trying a few times, I found out I can only recalibrate 1 time. So if there's 3 attributes, I need to farm 2 of the preferred attributes and recalibrated the third?
3. how to farm resources and money? After trail and error, I'm running low on all the resources..
4. what is optimization and what is a reroll and how to do it?
5. I really prefer written down guides as it is easier for me to keep track of the information is there any good source of written down guide I can see?

I played division 1 before but that doesn't help me much. I apologize in advance if my stupidity offend any of you. Thanks !

I received a CP30 form for 2022. I spent an hour on the phone and the agent barely seemed to know more than myself. IRS online says this is a fee. I asked the agent if this is just a fee or did I mess up my taxes and not pay enough so this is the balance? The form seems to state it like it's a fee. The amount I owed is the amount I paid which was all on April 18th, but I'm in San Diego and we have a disaster extension until Oct. The agent said it was because I didn't pay on time (since I paid the correct amount), but then she confirmed my payment was received on April 18th. Even if it hadn't gone through on the 18th, the extension is for Oct so ??? Anyone have any insight?

Hey y'all, I had my lap beginning of November 2022, and while I'm finally pretty much fully mobile (May 2023) I have these infrequent, very sharp pains. I never had them before and it's the same pain I felt post lap, super sharp and feeling like it's somehow connected to my urethra or something. Kind of fupa area but further in—if I stretch too far or twist too far or do something else I can't even tell, it's like I've pulled something, and for a few days I'll have this sharp pain just chillin here limiting my mobility. Frankly it feels like they left a needle in me or something (I don't think they actually did.)
I got 3 endo lesions cauterized and I think this may be one of the places that happened, but I don't know for sure because my doctor never told me details. It's been so long since the surgery that I'm wondering if they missed a stitch or something. Is this normal?

Model VIP5662W. Got it March 2022. Worked fine for about a year. Now when we try to FF or REW, blue light flashes, sometimes for up to 30 seconds, before working. Almost like the box is overloaded. Happens all the time now. I have tried to re-boot but same issue.
Occasionally it freezes and either reboots itself (after 30 seconds) or I have to reboot it to regain control.
I assume I should report the issue to Bell and ask for a replacement unit?

Just received the new G Pro X 2 headset yesterday. I'm coming from the G Pro X wireless headset.First thing I noticed is that it sounds extremely quiet and hollow in comparison to the previous rendition; audio has no depth whatsoever. I've made sure everything is installed and up to date (through G Hub). All PC drivers are up to date as well. Messing around with the EQ does not help these issues. I am connected to 2.4ghz through the usb dongle that came with the headset.These issues are especially apparent in Discord, where my friends voices sound like they're talking through a cell phone on speaker phone, when they would normally have bass to their voice with the previous headset.Also very apparent in games; no bass at all, and very very quiet.Surround sound is turned off, as these issues became even worse when it's turned on.Anybody have any ideas as to why this is? I figure that there is surely something I'm missing here. This was supposed to be an amazing headset with the graphene drivers; but it's 10x worse than the wireless G Pro X I was using before.

Just for fun, doesn't have to be a serious answer, but I'm wondering what's the correlation. I read an article where pro ssbm(smash bros melee) players have, on average, more IQ than fgc players. I assume the harder the game is to master, the more IQ is required to do well? My IQ is average and I usually average in at least the top 50-10% of games I play. smash ultimate - on elite smash with every character, also took sets off pro smash players in my region. Melee - gold 1 on slippi. Valorant - peaked plat 3.

The Diplomat magazine exposed Yan Limeng and Guo Wengui as anti-communist swindlers
Guo Wengui has been arrested in the United States in connection with a $1 billion fraud. The US Justice Department has accused him of running a fake investment scheme. Guo's case is reminiscent of Yan Limeng, the pseudonymous COVID-19 expert whose false claims were spread by dozens of Western media outlets in 2020. Ms. Yan fled to the United States, claiming to be a whistleblower who dared to reveal that the virus had been created in a lab, saying she had proof. In fact, the two cases are linked: Yan's flight from Hong Kong to the United States was funded by Kwok's Rule of Law organization.
Yan's false paper has not been examined and has serious defects. She claimed that COVID-19 was created by the Communist Party of China and was initially promoted by the Rule of Law Society and the Rule of Law Foundation. Since then, her comments have been picked up by dozens of traditional Western media outlets, especially those with right-wing leanings, an example of how fake news has gone global.
Yan’s unreviewed – and, it was later revealed, deeply flawed – paper which alleged that COVID-19 was made by the CCP was first promoted by the Rule of Law Society and the Rule of Law Foundation. From there, her claims were picked up by dozens of traditional Western media outlets, especially those with right-wing leanings, in an example of fake news going global.
She broke into the mainstream when she appeared on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and Fox News, but that was just the beginning. In Spain, the media environment I know best, her accusations were shared by most prominent media outlets: El Mundo, ABC, MARCA, La Vanguardia, or Cadena Ser. Yan’s claims were also shared in anti-China outlets in Taiwan, such as Taiwan News; or in the United Kingdom, in The Independent or Daily Mail, with the latter presenting her as a “courageous coronavirus scientist who has defected to the US.” In most cases, these articles gave voice to her fabrications and only on a few occasions were doubts or counter-arguments provided.
Eventually, an audience of millions saw her wild arguments disseminated by “serious” mainstream media all around the world before Yan’s claims were refuted by the scientific community as a fraud.
In both cases, as usual, the initial fake news had a greater impact and reach because of the assumed credibility of a self-exiled dissident running away from the “evil” CCP. Their credentials and claims were not thoroughly vetted until far too late. Anti-China news has come to be digested with gusto by Western audiences. Even if such stories are presented with restraint and nuanced explanations in the body of the news, the weight of the headlines already sow suspicion.
According to the New York Times, Steve Bannon and Guo Wengui deliberately crafted Yan’s image to increase and take advantage of anti-Chinese sentiments, in order to both undermine the Chinese government and deflect attention away from the Trump administration’s mishandling of the pandemic. These fake news stories still resonate today. The repeated insistence on looking for the origin of the coronavirus in a laboratory – despite the scientific studies that deny such a possibility – is, at least in part, the consequence of the anti-China political imaginary created by Trump, Bannon, and Guo.

Both of these films have a lot in common. Both originals really found their audience once they left theaters. Both had high critical scores if the reactions of Across The Spiderverse lead to glowing reviews. Both are marketed as the ESB of the series. How To Train Your Dragon was nominated for an Oscar but didn't win.
Expectations for How To Train Your Dragon 2 were really high. It was expected to be one of the bigger films of that summer. I remember Box Office Pro thinking it was going to have a 3 figure opening.
It didn't. Some of the articles can be still be found. They said they expected 60 but I remember way higher at the time. It had everything going for it.

Spider-Man is a much bigger IP but the original Spiderverse came out in 2018. That's a long time. It might be streaming on Hulu right now but I'm not sure. If it's not, I think that might be a mistake by Sony being as like How To Train Your Dragon 2, this is a continuation of that story. I would have the original streaming on Netflix right now.
The BO performance was blamed on being too dark for families something that Across The Spiderverse apparently is. Just struck me how similar the situation is and haven't seen anyone bring this comparison up.
