Two tropical systems are on a path toward the Gulf of Mexico and could possibly make landfall around the same time in the U.S. early next week.The latest forecast from the National Hurricane Center depicts two hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday.

Netflix issued an apology Thursday after thousands signed a petition demanding the immediate removal of the controversial French film “Cuties” from the streaming platform.
The movie, about an 11-year-old who rebels against her family and joins a “free-spirited dance crew,” is accused in the online campaign of sexualizing young girls “for the viewing pleasure of pedophiles.” Originally titled “Mignonnes,” the project premiered earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival, where it won a jury award for directing.
Netflix said
We’re deeply sorry for the inappropriate artwork that we used for Mignonnes/Cuties. It was not OK, nor was it representative of this French film which won an award at Sundance. We’ve now updated the pictures and description.
The film is about the over sexualization if girls in dance .. a conversation that man say needs to be had but not with a hyper sexualized cover depicting girls in a sultry setting..
This is how one Twitter user pointed out the differences of the original cover into what Netflix decided to do:
K-pop group BTS just released their highly-anticipated music video for their newest track, ‘Dynamite’.
It has overpassed 10 million views and 1 million likes in just 20 minutes of its debut…
BTS obliterated the YouTube Premiere record, previously held by BLACKPINK‘s ‘How You Like That’ music video which drew 1.65 million concurrent viewers.
Theaters are beginning to slowly roll out reopening plans.
AMC is among those offering dirt price films for people brave enough to re-enter the old world..
During its opening-day promotion, AMC will show catalog films, including “Ghostbusters,” “Black Panther,” “Back to the Future” and “Grease.” Those older films will continue to play afterward for $5.
AMC, the nation’s largest movie theater chain, confirmed that Disney’s much-delayed “New Mutants” will debut in theaters Aug. 28, with Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” to follow Sept. 3.
Theaters will have reduced capacity along with social distancing standards.
“Please remember to social distance before, during and after the movie. Directional signs and reminders will be posted throughout the theater for guidance,” AMC’s website reads.
As schools, nursing facilities, and the public itself is getting mentally braced for what experts say could be ‘wave 2’ of COVID-19, one Pennsylvania nursing home is tragically dealing with wave 1..
To date, the Milton Nursing home in Milton PA was coronavirus clear.. No deaths occurred even during the most trying weeks in the late winter and early spring of this year.
But just within the past day, this information has been released:
Milton Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Northumberland County (as of 08/18/20):
93 total residents. 73 residents have been infected with COVID-19 36 staff members have been infected with COVID-19 13 residents have died from COVID-19
There were just 0 deaths from COVID days ago.
The virus seemingly has rampaging through the home with a thunderous and deadly zeal.
An asteroid the size of an SUV passed 1,830 miles (2,950 kilometers) above Earth, the closest asteroid ever observed passing by our planet, NASA said Tuesday.
If it had been on a collision course with Earth, the asteroid — named 2020 QG — would likely not have caused any damage, instead disintegrating in the atmosphere, creating a fireball in the sky, or a meteor, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) said in a statement.
Democrats began this year’s hot political season with a dull pre-taped snooze fest on the first night of their DNC convention. They will do this for the rest of the week. Republicans will join them next week.
People are responding with……..snooze.
Neilson states that 5.7 million people tuned in to the first night of the Democratic National Convention on the major broadcast networks, cutting the viewership of four years ago in half as the virtual event proved a tougher sell than the traditional live gathering.
From 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. New York time, Monday’s convention debut drew 2.1 million viewers on Walt Disney Co.’s ABC, 1.9 million on Comcast Corp.’s NBC and 1.7 million on ViacomCBS Inc.’s CBS, according to Nielsen’s fast affiliate data. About 11.6 million people watched the first night of the event on those networks four years ago between 10 p.m. and 11:30 p.m., the website TV by the Numbers reported at the time.
That seems appropriate, right? So many movie chains closed due to COVID.. but on August 28, it appears that anti social distancing will take place and NEW MUTANTS will be alive and well in safe theaters across the nation.
Unless something else changes. In 2020 anything is possible.
20TH CENTURY released a ‘meet the cast’ of the NEW MUTANTS:
Some have joked online that by the time NEW MUTANTS would be released they would be old mutants.
But it seems like the date may finally give us the film?
Showtimes have been listed for Dolby and Cinemark theaters.. Marcus Theaters are showing movies at 30% capacity and distanced seating with masks required.
AMC and REGAL are going to also be opening some theaters this week .. Of course we will see if there is a ‘FIELD OF DREAMS’ response (if you reopen.. they will come..)
In its latest survey on US adults’ comfort level with certain activities, conducted Friday to Monday, Morning Consult found that most respondents were more comfortable with other activities like going out to eat or going to a shopping mall. Morning Consult surveyed 2,200 US adults, and just 17% said they would be comfortable going to the movies immediately, a dip from about 20% earlier this month.
NEW MUTANTS may change that for some fans who have eagerly anticipated the film for —-years.
And remember: The initial teaser for this film came out 3 YEARS AGO.
After all that time.. they seem to be ready to finally arrive..;
