“The Hunger Games” is how 60 Minutes reporter Sharyn Alfonsi characterized Gov. Ron Desantis’ vaccine rollout in Palm Beach County on a Sunday segment on the show, likening it to the popular book and film series depicting a dystopian survivalist nightmare. Heated reactions from both sides of the political spectrum on social media immediately followed the airing of the story, which questioned why wealthy donors and communities like the Town of Palm Beach have been prioritized for vaccinations while poorer communities have seemingly struggled to get the shots. As well, the decision to grant Publix exclusive distribution rights for the vaccine came under scrutiny, with 60 Minutes highlighting the Florida-based grocery chain’s donations to DeSantis’ political action committee. (A January analysis by the South Florida Sun Sentinel found that Publix vaccine sites were out of reach for many poor and Black Floridians.) In interviews on the show, local officials, angered by the Publix arrangement, described it as “pay to play” and at one of the governor’s recent press conferences, Alfonsi herself pointedly asked DeSantis, “How is that not pay to play?” Check out the heated exchange between Alfonsi and DeSantis: A number of conservative officials and media figures came to…

Back in the day when being able to create a live stream on your mobile device was a new thing, Periscope was one of the more popular options out there, so much so that Twitter decided to spend $100 million to buy the company. However, all good things need to come to an end, and Periscope is one of them.In a tweet by the company, they have announced that starting today, Periscope is no longer. The company’s website is still up and running where if you have broadcasted through the app before, you’ll be able to go to the website and download old content if you want to save it for memories. This is it. Our final goodbye. Today is the last day the Periscope app will be available. We leave you with our gratitude for all the creators and viewers who brighten the Periscope community. We hope to see you all live on Twitter. 💜 pic.twitter.com/fRbYdEYInf — Periscope (@PeriscopeCo) March 31,  » Read More

Crater’s Renaissance Academy presents “The Frogs” play on YouTube CENTRAL POINT, Ore. — Crater’s winter audio comedy production of “The Frogs” is now available on YouTube! It’s based on the work of ancient Greek playwright, Aristophanes, and adapted by Crater Renaissance Academy’s performing arts teachers, Davey Kashuba and Emily Zellner-Gisler. 12 students and Kashuba contributed their voices to the project, which started in January. It’s an ancient Greek play, but the plot parallels the pandemic we’re still dealing with today. Kashuba said a lot of the funniest moments in the show came from the creative minds of the students. “Some of the stuff they noticed about the lines and the plot and just ways they could make it feel more current and engaging for the audience was really fun,” Kashuba said. The students are currently working on a sketch comedy show collaboration with the choir, like a Saturday Night Live high school edition. It will premiere at the beginning of June. NBC5 News reporter/weather forecaster Aaron Nilsson is a Southern California native, but most recently lived in Seattle. He’s also lived in Sweden and Utah. He graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Broadcast Journalism and a…

(Photo by Paras Griffin/Getty Images for WEtv) Last month, Drake received a historic Billboard Hot 100 debut with three songs topping the chart, and he’s used the occasion to thank one of his inspirations. His singles What’s Next, Wants and Needs, and Lemon Pepper Freestyle grabbed the top spots. Drake decided to hold a 1-2-3 themed party. The celebrations included a cake with the top 10 on the table and several special guests. Amongst them, Bow Wow, which appeared in a series of videos with Drake via her Instagram Stories. “I had to link with Wizzle. Everybody wants to have drinks and everybody wants to celebrate and turn up and, you know, I just had to see Wizzle. I had to see Wizzle in person,” he said of Bow Wow. “If it wasn’t for you, there wouldn’t be no me. That’s why—you know the rest, that’s why I’mma rock with y’all forever more.” In the early 2000s, Bow Wow and Soulja Boy were pioneers in the hip-hop culture regarding how marketing campaigns and music tours work.  » Read More

Ever wondered if you can cook a chicken solely from the heat generated by slapping it? So did YouTuber Louis Weisz, and the verdict is... yes. Yes, you can.As you can see from the video embedded below, the endeavor took plenty of work – two months' worth in total – from testing out the theory to constructing a super-speedy (and customizable) chicken slapper to actually getting the bird cooked. But in the end, Weisz did indeed come out with a cooked chicken at the end of it: a triumph of persistence if not really a practical option for your next camping trip.Two key considerations along the way were keeping the slaps fast and hard enough to heat the meat without causing it to disintegrate and managing to restrict heat loss – and as the video shows, they were both overcome.The cooking physics behind the idea is actually sound. It's possible that a 2019 Reddit post was the inspiration for the video, as it originally posed the question of whether converted kinetic energy (movement) into thermal energy (heat) could cook a chicken.Among those who weighed in on that original question was a physics student who suggested that one slap would do…

If being a Pokémon Master falls through, Ash Ketchum could always get a job as a superhero. We all live in a Pokémon world, but let's be honest, we'd rather live in the actual Pokémon universe. After all, what's not to love about adorable, cuddly, world-breaking monsters who do your bidding? But there's also the question of what sort of logistics are involved. It's clear from the games that humans in the Pokémon world don't quite match up to regular humans, and it's even more pronounced in the anime with people like Team Rocket and Ash. Especially Ash, who takes all sorts of abuse from his Pokémon and carts them around like they're nothing. Which begs the question: does Ash Ketchum have super-strength? Continue scrolling to keep reading Click the button below to start this article in quick view. This question was posed on Twitter, with the user pointing to various examples of Ash carting around exceedingly heavy Pokémon and juxtaposing it with the scene from the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back as an explanation for why Mewtwo used a Protect against Ash, who by all accounts should be just a regular human 10-year-old. After all, Pokémon like Pikachu and Fletchinder can't be…

Super Smash Bros. streamer Nairo will begin streaming on YouTube while continuing to appeal his now controversial Twitch ban. The long and winding history of Twitch bans is a storied tale with many notable streamers among the casualties. With the exception of Dr Disrespect's Twitch ban, perhaps none were so prolific as Super Smash Bros. streamer Nairoby "Nairo" Quezada's case, a case that continues to unfold as Nairo makes the move to YouTube. It all began when Nairo was accused of having a sexual encounter with the streamer Zack ‘CaptainZack’ Lauth when Nairo was 20 and Zack was 15. The sexual misconduct allegations rocked the Super Smash Bros. esports community and led to Nairo being banned from Super Smash Bros. competitions. Shortly after the allegations were made against Nairo, the streamer tweeted that he had messed up tremendously and was wrong, however in October last year he released a statement explaining his side of the story and stating it was Zack who had molested him, not the other way around. The statement claims that at the CEO Dreamland competition of 2017, Zack and his friends approached Nairo and told him they had made a booking error with their hotel rooms. Zack…
