Thoughts on next RB promotions?

I feel more unsure this year about my thoughts than I have in awhile. Most of the people I thought would go all the way up have/have been recently promoted, so I'm not fully sure.

I can see Luca Acri, Nicol Edmonds, or James Hay going up, in that order. I'd like it to be Sissens but I think he will grow as a first soloist for a few more years.

Will they replace Morera? I'm more inclined to say no. They historically have liked to have equal numbers of male and female principals. Promoting one of the men above and not filling in Morera's place would get them back to that. Plus, I can't really see any of the current female first soloists going up. Choe is too old, Calvert is pregnant, I don't think it could be Hinkis or Mendizabal based on their role history and frankly, talent. The only one who MIGHT go up would be Hamilton, but she's been a first soloist for far too long and, IMO, just doesn't have the star power to be a principal. Unfortunately, the crop of upcoming male talent is much more promising than female talent currently.

Others I see going up this year:

Sasaki, Buvoli, and maybe Ella to first soloists (esp. Sasaki). I'm also scared they might promote Storm-Jensen.

I would be shocked if Jun and Maeda didn't go up to soloists. Maybe also Emerton, Bradbury, and Stock.

Ikarashi will almost certainly be promoted to first artist at least. I can also see Boswell, Park, and Townsend (if she ends up making that autumn fairy debut)

#ask #watch these be completely off but they're who I'm seeing being consistently cast #royal ballet

WANTED: Artists Willing To Take Commissions For Obscure and Small Fandoms/Ships

Okay... so, am I doing this?

I guess we’re doing this.

As I’ve mentioned before on my Tumblr, I can’t draw to save my life. I’m the living embodiment of “Hermione Can’t Draw” from A Very Potter Sequel.

But, I do love seeing other people’s fan art-- it just sucks that most of the fandoms I’m in are very small and/or obscure.

So, I’m looking for artists who would like to take commissions from me and indulge my ridiculousness.

Fandoms and ships that I’ll probably ask for pieces of:

The Frighteners (Frank/Lucy)

Family Ties (Alex/Ellen, Nick/Mallory, Steven/Elyse)

Back to the Future trilogy (Marty/Jennifer, Doc/Clara, George/Lorraine)

Newsies [musical ‘verse] (Jack/Katherine)

Who’s The Boss? (Tony/Angela)

Bright Lights, Big City (Jamie/Vicky)

Law & Order franchise (Nolan/Sam, Rollins/Carisi)

Spin City (Mike/Nikki)

The X-Files (Mulder/Scully)

Taxi (Alex/Elaine)

Danielle Steele’s Fine Things (Bernie/Liz)

Netherbeast Incorporated (Otto/Pearl)

Days of our Lives (Chad/Abigail, Bo/Hope, Ben/Ciara, John/Marlena, Jack/Jennifer, Steve/Kayla, Eli/Lani, Will/Sonny, E.J./Sami, Eric/Nicole)

Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (Sully/Michaela)

Eloise at Christmastime (Bill/Rachel)

The Count of Monte Cristo [2002 ‘verse] (Edmond/Mercedes)

The Music Man [1962] (Harold/Marian, Tommy/Zaneeta)

Blue’s Clues (Steve/Miranda)

Here are a few examples of the kind of style(s) that I’m looking for (I can’t remember where I found these, but I loved them so much I downloaded them. All I remember is that they’re fan art of The Lizzie Bennett Chronicles):

Please DM me so we can work things out, and I can give you my first request. But please keep in mind... I don’t want it to get too expensive. I’m not being a cheapskate, it’s just that my family and I are trying to watch our money right now.

Incoming Text for Tracey Edmonds: Stay in South Carolina FOREVER and Ever and Ever.

Hey, Tracey! It's me, your sweetheart!

You know what I changed my mind. I want to encourage you to build your Palace in America, I want to make sure you will be safe and secure, there are a lot of weirdos in France and I don't want them to come near you and enter your private life.

I can't tell you who the weirdos are right now because this is a public page but I will tell you when we meet in private in the future, so be patient, I have a lot of tea for you, you will sip, sip some good tea.

Sipping Tea --- Meaning: As in sipping tea, when getting good gossip from a girlfriend over the kitchen table. Usually used in social media (ie. tumblr)

What does sip tea mean? Slang.net

Sip tea means "Mind your business." It is typically used to describe a person who enjoys listening and hearing gossip.

So, what do we do now?

The answer is simple, you stay in America and we will meet in Germany, we will rent a good house for a few months and then you will go back home to America, it's the perfect solution to protect you because these French people want to slander your name in the media and I can't let that happen,

You will find a way to meet me in Frankfurt, Germany, they have a lot of luxurious neighborhoods there, we will buy a home there but we will not live there, we will go there to see each other and then leave that house.

Here is the solution:

Three months in our Frankfurt home and then you go back to the USA.

And then again a few months later, you will come back and we will repeat this process for many years.

We are workaholics, we have so much work to do in our private lives, we have a lot of work to do, we will be busy working and we will be on the phone all the time, we will be on Facetime and WhatsApp, we will stay connected all the time, it's like living in the same home, so I don't see any problem with that.

You stay in South Carolina and I stay in Alsace, Problem Solved.

Perfect lifestyle for a workaholic couple living in two nations.

Also, when you build your Palace in the United States, make sure you have a PANIC ROOM, this is not a joke, I'm serious.

Read this article:

Do you remember how they killed your friend Nicole Avant's mother, Jacqueline Avant?

They will try to enter your home too, so you must invest in several Panic Rooms, and I mean bullet proof Panic Rooms.

Here is a list of PANIC ROOMS you need in your home:

1- The Bedrooms for your sons needs a PANIC ROOM that is fireproof and bulletproof. Inside that room, ensure there's a direct connection to the U.S. Army's phone lines, as local police may sometimes be corrupt.

2- The Bedroom for your guests needs a PANIC ROOM that is fireproof and bulletproof. Inside that room, ensure there's a direct connection to the U.S. Army's phone lines, as local police may sometimes be corrupt.

3- Your Bedroom for your private sleep needs a PANIC ROOM that is fireproof and bulletproof. Inside that room, ensure there's a direct connection to the U.S. Army's phone lines, as local police may sometimes be corrupt.

4- Your living-room needs a PANIC ROOM that is fireproof and bulletproof. Inside that room, ensure there's a direct connection to the U.S. Army's phone lines, as local police may sometimes be corrupt.

5- Your bathroom needs a PANIC ROOM that is fireproof and bulletproof. Inside that room, ensure there's a direct connection to the U.S. Army's phone lines, as local police may sometimes be corrupt.

You will sleep in peace with no worries. That way when you sleep at night, you won't worry about who is in the house, all you have to do is call the Army's phone lines and they will come to clean up the insects. I call them insects because that is what they are.

The only way to defend your home is with PANIC ROOMS in each room of the house, these rooms have to be Fire Proof and Bullet Proof.

Also, you have to buy the new Tesla. Drive a bulletproof Tesla Model S Plaid and learn about the advantages of getting an armored Tesla from the Utah armoring company.

Invest in bullet proof cars and bullet proof clothing.

This is how you stay alive as a wealthy black woman in America, they hate to see you winning, so you know you have to stay ready for any attack.

I encourage you to study the life of Queen Elizabeth, the way she lived her life, she had anxiety and never went outside.

Try reading the biography of Queen Elizabeth; she can inspire you to live a life indoors, just like her. Queen Elizabeth rarely ventured outside the palace walls due to the presence of many ill-intentioned individuals who wished her harm. Consequently, she spent most of her life indoors to protect herself from potential danger.

You must protect yourself too, as the saying goes, it's lonely at the top.

Also, I don't mind if you have a lover, I'm happy for you, whoever that man is.

I will also be happy with my many girlfriends, so you know I'm good.

(Important reminder - My love for you is PURE, no strings attached. It expresses a sentiment of acceptance and contentment with the possibility of each person having romantic relationships without jealousy or possessiveness.)

Read this very important Reminder about the French nation:

There is something you need to know about France, this nation is full of clout-chasers, you can't walk a mile without encountering a clout-chaser and when you reject them, they become obsessed, they become maniacs and they kill people, that is why I have chosen to let you stay in America, that way these weirdos will never come near you.

Imagine hundreds of clout-chasers wanting your attention but you reject them, guess what they'll do next? They will become your enemies and plot against you because you had the audacity to reject their friendship, believe it or not, this is why I refuse to let you live in France, they kill women who reject them in this country, this is not a joke, it's happening all over the country, it's called "Féminicides" in the french language.

Find a translator to help you understand this website, read this page in the link below:

This is the statistics of the many female murders that happen in France every year:

Can you imagine what is going on in France? This is the type of psychopath shit that will happen if you come to live in France. I want to end this type of hatred, and if you never live in France, they can't stalk you and if they can't stalk you, they can't see you. PROBLEM SOLVED!

French men are sick fucks, they kill any woman who rejects them, if you didn't know, well, now you know.

Did you know that they are also capable of killing you and then blaming me for that crime? They are capable of anything, so don't come here, I was just playing with the devil bosses of Rihanna, I made them believe that you were coming to live in France, they thought I was serious. They all got Punk'd.

Listen, Tracey, these people are so evil, they planned on entering our home and have sex with you while they force me to watch that humiliation, oh, you have no idea the level of sickness in these weirdos, they love to humiliate men but they can never humiliate me because I'm war ready, I will shoot them if they come near me or my wife.

A lot of evil people in France, Evil French people are sick people, and they thought I was gonna let them get near my wife, no sir, you will get shot if you come near my wife. I wish they would.

That is why I'm asking you to never set foot in France, do you hear me? I'm not joking, I'm very serious, I encourage you to stay in the United States and whenever you want to see me, we will meet in Frankfurt, Germany, it's very near, it's a two hour drive, that's how we will live happily ever after and protect our privacy.

You will build your dream Palace in South Carolina, Hilton Head, the most fabulous Palace in South Carolina. The end of the story.

I love you, Tracey and your security matters more to me than anything, so stay where you are and never leave South Carolina.

Okay, this chat was fun.

Have fun, Tracey! Big hug for you.

OUT OF CONTROL

("In the blistering heat, CBS News found children in Ghana as young as 5 years old using machetes nearly as big as themselves to harvest the cocoa beans that end up in some of America's most-loved chocolates."

---Debora Patta, Sarah Carter, Javier Guzman, and Kerry Breen, CBS News, 11.29. 2023, in an article they wrote about Mars, the candy company that makes M&Ms and Snickers.)

("A university in Canada is expected to remove a series of vending machines from campus after a student discovered a sign they used facial recognition technology."

"The smart vending machines at the University of Waterloo first gained attention this month when Reddit user SquidKid47 shared a photo. The photo purportedly showed an M&M-brand vending machine with an error code reading, 'Invenda.Vending. FacialRecognition.App.exe — Application error.'"

"...River Stanley, a writer for the local student publication MathNEWS...investigated the smart vending machines, discovering that they're provided by Adaria Vending Services and manufactured by Invenda Group. Canadian publication CTV News reported that Mars, owner of M&M's, owns the vending machines."

"MathNEWS reported that Invenda Group's FAQ said that 'only the final data, namely presence of a person, estimated age and estimated gender, is collected without any association with an individual.'"

---Lauren Edmonds, Business Insider, 2.25. 2024.)

("A South Carolina college apologized Monday after a faculty member, calling them 'happy pills,' handed out M&Ms in prescription drug bottles to little kids at a fun run over the weekend.

'While we know this professor meant the candy to serve as a treat, the method of distribution may have confused pre-school children whose parents have taught them not to take pills from pharmaceutical bottles,' Horry Georgetown Technical College, in East Conway near Myrtle Beach, said in a statement. 'We regret further that professors and administrators are human and, although eager to share information about growing careers, sometimes make mistakes. This particular mistake will not occur again.'

The faculty member, who wasn't identified, handed out the standard-issue prescription pill bottles to promote her medical technology program. The labels prescribed the 'Happy Pills' to "A Great Kid," instructing 'patients' to 'Take 1 m&m every 2 to 4 hours.'

'I know they had good intentions, but maybe it should have been handled in a different way,' Tiffany Myers, whose son got one of the bottles, told NBC station WMBF of Myrtle Beach. Myers said her husband is a firefighter and paramedic who 'comes across children that get into medicine bottles quite frequently, and it can be very damaging, or it can be life-threatening.'"

---M. Alex Johnson, NBC News, 2.16. 2015)

("...the DEA is cracking down, telling roughly 450 e-commerce sites to identify and report pill press purchases as required under federal law. Last month, eBay agreed to pay the Department of Justice $59 million — after the e-commerce site allegedly fell short of identifying and reporting pill press purchases."

"Drug dealers also buy fake punch kits and dyes, used to brand pills, allowing them to mimic real pills like oxycodone.

'What they do is they buy specific dyes and punch kits that have the markings that mimic pharmaceutical preparations,' DEA Deputy Assistant Administrator Scott Oulton said, noting the kits can be bought online and only cost about $40."

--- Nicole Sganga and Andres Triay, CBS News, 2.26. 2024 in their article "DEA cracks down on pill presses in latest front in the fight against fentanyl".

("With sales ranging from $163 billion to $217 billion per year, according to industry estimates, counterfeit pharmaceuticals are the most lucrative sector of the global trade in illegally copied goods. Fraudulent drugs harm or kill millions..."

"Authorities confiscated 4 million counterfeit tablets in 2015 in Germany alone. And in developing regions, such as Africa, the proportion of fake pharmaceuticals can rise to 70 percent. Roughly one-third of the world’s countries lack effective drug regulatory agencies."

"The World Health Organization [WHO] estimates that 50 percent of drugs sold online are fraudulent."

---Peter Behner, Marie-Lyn Hecht, and Fabian Wahl, in their paper "Fighting Counterfeit Pharmaceuticals: New Defenses for an Underestimated--and Growing--Menace", PWC dot com, 2017. [In 2002, IBM (International Business Machines Corporation) acquired the management consulting and technology services arm of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC), according to Wikipedia.])

(Costa Careyes is an exclusive gated community in Mexico. Each year, Careyes hosts a five-day festival [called Onalinda] for what a member of the founding family of Careyes described as being "rich people".."artists--successsful businessmen--you know, opinion leaders". The theme of the 2021 festival was mycelium and seven hundred and fifty people attended. Careyes says young people in the "twentysomething" age group were NOT invited.

"Among the offerings was a chocolate-fungi workshop." ["If we were going to add psilocybin, how much per bar should we do?"]

"Erika Valero Tlazohtiani, a shaman in a white gown, told attendees, 'Tobacco is a way to talk with God.' She led a cacao ceremony that involved drinking ritualistically prepared hot chocolate and taking a puff from a communal pipe."

"'That's a crazy-awesome outfit, even if you're not on a lot of drugs,' a guy in a glow-in-the-dark T-shirt said, watching a couple in matching sequinned tie-dyed jumpsuits. 'It's like adult recess on crack, but all the kids on the playground want to play with you,' a philanthropist named Gillian Wynn--the daughter of Steve Wynn--said."

The quotes are from a 1.24. 2022 article ["No Riffraff"] in The New Yorker that was written by Sheila Yasmin Marikar.)

Avant la première union officielle, Eddie Murphy avait non seulement plusieurs romances stellaires avec des collègues, mais aussi deux enfants nés hors mariage

Paulette McKneely a donné naissance à son premier fils, Eric, et Tamara Good, son deuxième fils, Christian.

En 1991, l'acteur a commencé à fréquenter la mannequin et créatrice Nicole Mitchell, qu'il avait rencontrée trois ans plus tôt. En 1993, un mariage luxueux a eu lieu au New York Plaza Hotel, et Eddie et Nicole sont devenus mari et femme. Au cours des années suivantes, le couple a donné naissance à cinq enfants, mais en 2005, Murphy et Mitchell se sont séparés, et un an plus tard, ils ont officiellement et finalement mis fin à la relation.

Le prochain amant du célèbre comédien était l'ex-chanteuse du groupe culte "Spice Girls" Melanie Brown. Ils ont vécu dans un mariage civil pendant un certain temps, la femme a donné naissance à une fille, Angel Iris Murphy-Brown. Malgré le fait que l'enfant porte son nom de famille, Eddie n'a pas voulu reconnaître ce bébé pendant longtemps et n'a accepté qu'après avoir confirmé sa paternité à l'aide d'un test ADN.

En 2008, l'acteur s'est marié une seconde fois avec la productrice de films Tracey Edmonds. Le mariage a eu lieu sur une île près de Bora Bora, mais le mariage a été conclu sans représentants civils officiels, par conséquent, selon la loi américaine, il a été déclaré invalide. Depuis quatre ans, Eddie Murphy fréquente une jeune mannequin, Paige Butcher, qui a donné naissance début mai 2016 à sa fille, Izzy Una Murphy, devenue le neuvième enfant du célèbre artiste.

Kenneth 'Babyface' Edmonds: A Musical Legacy and Father of Three

In a career spanning decades, renowned singer-songwriter-producer Kenneth 'Babyface' Edmonds has left an indelible mark on the music industry. With an impressive 26 number-one R&B hits and 12 Grammy awards to his name, Babyface's talent knows no bounds. But beyond his musical achievements, he cherishes his role as a father to three children, whose lives he has influenced with love and support. Babyface's first wife, Tracey Edmunds, entered his life when she auditioned for one of his music videos in 1990. Their deepening romance soon led to the birth of their first child, Brandon, in December 1995. Babyface was overwhelmed with joy and even penned a heartfelt song, "The Day (That You Gave Me a Son)," to celebrate his newfound fatherhood. Brandon has since pursued a career in producing films and television shows, showcasing his own creative talent. In 1998, Babyface and Tracey welcomed their second child, Dylan, into the world. Although the couple parted ways eight years later, Dylan remains a private individual, keeping his personal life away from the public eye. However, he has contributed to the entertainment industry, serving as a production assistant on his father's projects and even co-producing the Netflix film "End of the Road." After his divorce from Tracey, Babyface found love again with Nicole Pantenburg in 2007. Their happiness multiplied when they welcomed their daughter, Peyton, in the following year. Babyface expressed his delight at expanding their family, with his two sons embracing their roles as big brothers. Unfortunately, after seven years of marriage, Babyface and Nicole announced their separation in July 2021, but they remain committed to co-parenting Peyton amicably. Despite the challenges faced in his personal life, Babyface's dedication to his craft has never wavered. His contributions to the music industry are unparalleled, having produced chart-topping hits for renowned artists like Whitney Houston, Boyz II Men, Madonna, and many more. His collaborations with superstars such as Mariah Carey, TLC, Ariana Grande, Michael Jackson, Bruno Mars, and Beyoncé have solidified his status as a music legend. As Babyface continues to grace the stage, he remains grateful for the opportunity to do what he loves. With a career spanning over four decades, he embodies the spirit of perseverance and passion. The music world eagerly awaits his future projects, knowing that his talent and expertise will continue to captivate audiences worldwide. In the midst of his professional achievements, Babyface's devotion to his children shines through. Despite the ups and downs of his relationships, he has consistently prioritized his role as a loving father. The bond he shares with Brandon, Dylan, and Peyton is a testament to his commitment to family, leaving a lasting legacy beyond his musical triumphs. Read the full article
