Hi Anne, my husband was dx w/ a #GBM in May 2022. I'm confused by how you did a GBM story w/o discussing the most significant development ever for brain tumors.

Please follow up with #UCLA & #NWBO #DCVAX. Completed P3 last May, approved for UK Specials already &
1/
is a personalized, nontoxic vaccine. It has given patients w/ a 10-18 month prognosis 9, 12, 16, 20+ years & counting with no addtl treatment.

My husband is a 52 yo firefighter and we are counting on #DCVAX to save his life. He doesn't have time for the treatment you covered
2/
This vaccine was created in the US and UK will have full approval before the US, forcing US patients like @Clairotonin, a 36 yo ICU nurse who desperately needs it, to try to get to the UK at a cost of $300k

We need #DCVAX approved by @US_FDA for compassionate use ASAP and

What's a coordinator-less defense to do against one of the best offenses in the country?

@latbbolch on @UCLAfootball's defensive struggles without defensive coordinator Bill McGovern latimes.com/sports/ucla/st…
When @uscfb & @UCLAFootball meet for the 92nd time, it'll be the 1st time in this series that both schools will start Black quarterbacks.

For #USC and #UCLA, like the rest of the national football landscape, change has been slow.

This is why it's significant that Saturday marks the first time in this rivalry game that both schools will start Black quarterbacks. From @BillPlaschke: latimes.com/sports/story/2…
The presence of a Black starting quarterback is so common that most interviewed for this column didn't know Saturday’s QBs will make history.

But several former QBs from UCLA & USC endured heartache, terror and harassment when they put on their uniforms. latimes.com/sports/story/2…
Vince Evans led USC to an 11-1 record and Rose Bowl victory in his final season.

In his senior season (1976), as he was leaving a game with an injury, new coach John Robinson purposely met him on the field and put his arm around him as they walked off. latimes.com/sports/story/2…

Dangerous CO2 levels. Unflavored gelatin. Benjamin Franklin in a river.

This story examines a sport you might have ignored or joked about. But some facets of synchronized swimming – now called “artistic” swimming – could change your mind. @usaartswimming

The prevailing image of synchronized, or artistic, swimming changed in an instant last summer.

Anita Alvarez pushed too hard at the worlds, passed out and sank to the bottom. She now wonders if people look at her sport and see “how difficult it is.” latimes.com/sports/olympic…

Once upon a time (well, 1965), @UCLA chancellor Franklin Murphy promoted the construction of a $6.5-million, 44,000-seat on-campus stadium that would be nestled into the hillside west of the student athletic fields. latimes.com/sports/ucla/st…
Among other amenities, the stadium would house a regulation football field plus a 440-yard, 9-lane track, outdoor lighting, concession stands, restrooms, scoreboards, a two-level press box, team dressing and shower rooms and management offices. latimes.com/sports/ucla/st…
#UCLA students twice voted against the proposal and staged a protest outside Murphy’s office. The Daily Bruin, the campus newspaper, ran an editorial opposing the stadium and the use of student fees to fund it. latimes.com/sports/ucla/st…

If you enjoy critiques of pure reason, then I highly suggest the "Swarm" episode of Netflix's season three of Love + Death + Robots when to counter human hubris we learn that "intelligence is not a winning survival trait." 1/5 Still image from "Swarm"
I'll use Swarm in my #UCLA class on Aliens this Fall. I ask students to "think with aliens" rather than get stuck on their existence, and to "stay with the trouble" to see that humans are apex predators (so far) who are cannibalizing their own longevity (so not THAT smart). 2/5 Octopus phot by Diane Picchiottino
I assign Lee Irwin: "Reason, in both its synthetic and its analytic sense, represents only one epistemic ground and is limited by its frequent usurpation of other vital epistemic means, such as aesthetics, dreaming, myth making, and visionary experience." 3/5 ayuasca vision painting available on wikimedia commons

Here are my takeaways from yesterday about the @Pac12 and realignment prospects based on the various interviews conducted yesterday with @Kliavkoff . …—->
The first takeaway is fairly obvious: the #B1G is running the show here. So, the future of the @Pac12 and @WSUCougars status as a Power 5 program follows whether the Big 10 decides to add schools when they finalize their tv deal next month.
As I have noted previously, I don’t think that the #B1G is going to expand beyond Notre Dame. The reason: they don’t need to. They’re already the second best conference &!the additions of the LA schools provide their member schools with ONE all expenses paid trip to LA each year

USC and UCLA have been flagship members of the Pac-12 for nearly a century.

But the two are leaving for the Big Ten, moving from a largely ignored 12-team league to a powerful 14-team group in some of the most visible markets in the country.

Ready for the #CFB Analytics Spring Top 40? Here we go. This Power Ranking is derived from a model which utilizes full Coach Staff efficiency metrics, roster talent, & returning production among other metrics. No opinion here, I just regurgitate the numbers. #NoOpinionJustNumbers
40 #Kentucky #BBN #SEC Power Rating: 61.726
Returning Production for the Wildcats may be a problem. At 39.72%, it puts them at 113th in the country. The schedule is manageable tho drawing Ole Miss & Miss State out the West. #CFB
39 #Washington #PurpleReign #Pac12
Power Rating: 62.271
Really like the new coaching staff in Seattle. Should put them in a better position to win. Roster talent purge from the prev regime will have an early effect (last 2 classes were 39th, 86th) but the ship has been righted.

It’s late at night and once again I find myself thinking of the Walter Wheat Bunny, a sandwich at UCLA that was, IIRC, honey wheat bread, cream cheese, peanut butter, bananas, pineapple, and I think raisins?
The vegetarian options were VERY slim in 2006 and tbh it was fucking delicious
I can find no trace of this sandwich online, goddamnit

La democracia le dió a los venezolanos una Universidad como la Simón Bolívar, han egresado 25 mil ingenieros, urbanistas, licenciados en diferentes carreras y profesores de altísimo nivel. Para su creación se designó una Comisión presidencial encabezada por Luis Manuel Peñalver.
La democracia encontró un vacío en áreas como las ciencias, las tecnologías y demás carreras que son indispensables para el desarrollo de un país. Al presidente Raul Leoni se le presentó el Proyecto elaborado por los expertos y el 18 de julio de 1967 firma el Decreto de creación.
Quiénes participaron en la creación de la Universidad Simón Bolivar, aportando ideas y haciendo propuestas que fueron debidamente escuchadas y tomadas en cuenta?

Ok I need the trusted news sources I lean on to tell me how real this is: tdmsresearch.com
A website that has up-to-date extensive data indicating Dem #electionfraud based on actual vote total differentials to exit polls in almost every state WAY outside accepted range
It indicates the potential for vote flipping, plus is always in Biden’s favor and shows a lower percentage for Bernie - almost across the board. There is no state in which it works in Bernie’s favor (ie Bernie outperformed the exit poll by the acceptable range.
MI - where Biden won, but not by nearly as big a margin. If you believe the Buzzfeed “glitch” was really a glitch.
