BB28 Sunday Nominations Ep Recap, Week 2 Also available on YouTube. Big Brother 28's alliances get pushed to the edge as chaos strikes after the latest HoH shakes up the game. Rob Cesternino, Taran Armstrong, David Bloomberg, and AJ Norris team up for a Sunday recap packed with strategy talk and messy house moments. Rick Devens wins HoH and, true to his Survivor roots, isn't content to play it safe. With back-channeling and fiery DRs, the panel goes deep on Devens' flashy nominations: Melody, Lyric, and Jason end up on the block, sending house loyalties scrambling. Angela's influence comes into focus—AJ thinks her manipulation steers Devens' HoH move, making messy, fun TV but also suiting his game. The group debates whether Melody’s “betrayal” in the HoH pairs comp really put her on the block, calling out a key production reshoot missing from the episode edit. Rome's misstep in naming too many allies to Devens becomes a lesson in bad negotiation. Meanwhile, Angela relishes her “showman” reputation, as her alliance gobbles up power and DR camera time, all while sporting the classic egg costume after winning the BB Time Capsule twist. AJ spotlights Angela’s clever handling of Rick Devens, speculating her persuasion shapes the “big move” nominations. Taran explains how Melody's switch in the HoH partner comp, due to a production reshoot, directly affects Devens' nominations—though the TV edit skips this. David breaks down Rome's negotiation blunder, noting you should never name your full alliance to an HoH. The group debates if Haley or Devens threw the final comp round, dissecting how throws and optics can reshape house perception. Jason's reaction to not winning the BB Time Capsule sparks laughs, with Taran suggesting his self-pity is extra performative. With the house lines drawn and finger-pointing on the rise, power seems fragile, Angela, Rick Devens, and Dee hold sway, but are lines about to shift again? Will Rick's chaotic HoH pay off, or did Angela's push for drama set up more trouble ahead? Catch the full episode for every alliance shake-up, messy DR moment, and insight into what could happen next in the Big Brother 28 house! 00:00 Episode Kickoff and Nominations 06:57 Rick Devens' HOH and Big Brother Power 14:38 Angela Murray's Bold Big Brother Moves 20:49 Melody's Competition Switch and Fallout 33:29 Devens, Rome, and Alliance Cracks 39:13 Angela and the Egg Costume Reveal 45:15 BB Time Capsule Power and Popularity 53:44 Nomination Ceremony Ignites House Drama 01:01:25 Jason, Angela, and Big Brother Showdown 01:10:09 Rick Devens Wins Veto Showdown 01:21:12 Power Shifts and Alliance Fractures Never miss a minute of RHAP's extensive Big Brother coverage!

BB28 Saturday Live Feed Update July 18, 2026 Also available on YouTube. Big Brother 28 is full of chaos as alliances redraw and trust breaks in dramatic fashion. Host Taran Armstrong teams up with guest Matt Liguori for a live feed recap, diving into day 11's fallout after nominations, secret meetings, and emotional confrontations rock the house. Devens is HoH and triggers a power shift by considering a big move against Rome, with Angela fueling talk of a backdoor plan. The Tool Shed alliance forms after a major group meeting, intentionally locking out Rome, Jason, and Lyric, who quickly realize they're on the outs. The day sees Drew and Barrett, supposed moles, try to keep both sides appeased while houseguests debate who's really loyal to whom. Nominations land on Jason, Lyric, and Melody, sparking breakdowns (including a tearful Lala and a “messy bitch” exchange between Jason and Angela, with Angela in an egg costume after failing the time capsule comp). Strategic conversations shift as Melody scrambles to survive, alliances wobble, and Rome's emotional apology tour continues, punctuated by heated arguments and even barking. Taran highlights the Tool Shed alliance meeting and its effect on Rome, Jason, and Lyric's sense of isolation. Matt points out Rome's “apology tour” and the sleep deprivation that might fuel his decision-making and outbursts. Devens as HoH, with Angela's failed time capsule power, shifts worries about the vets' control and gives outsiders hope. Melody, seeing no loyalty from her former group, works angles with Drew and Devens, opening the door for a flip. Wild nomination ceremony drama: Angela's egg costume, Jason's outbursts, and constant house sobbing keep emotions high. Power stays shaky as alliances test each other's loyalty and houseguests scramble to survive. Will anyone manage to flip the vote, or is the majority too strong with Devens and Angela running the show?

Nominations for the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards delivered both expected and unexpected results. “The Pitt” led the way with 25 nominations, with “Hacks” one behind at 24. Shows like “Widow’s Bay” (19), “Pluribus” (18), “Beef” (16) and “DTF St. Louis” (13) were among other big winners. But popular shows like “The Bear” (8 nominations), often criticized for entering comedy categories, and “Stranger Things” (7 nominations in technical categories), were left out of most of the big categories. In this episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz discuss the nominations that were released earlier in the month. The awards ceremony will be held on Sept. 14 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The hosts also chat about some new programming, like the Netflix adaptation of “Little House on the Prairie” and the latest “Big Bang Theory” spinoff: “Stuart Fails to Save the Universe.” And "House of the Dragon" is back, with its third season perhaps its best so far. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the National Newsroom for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

BB28 Sunday Nominations Ep Recap, Week 1 Big Brother 28 is off to a fast and strategic start as the house settles into the tension between returning players and new faces. Rob Cesternino is joined by Taran Armstrong, Aman Adwin, and Mary Kwiatkowski for this recap episode, where they break down all the major alliances, competitions, and social shakeups from the first big weekend in the house. The panel digs into how HOH Dee Valladares sets the tone by nominating Yash Patel, Taylor Brown, and Mallory Aurichio, with Ashley Trail joining them as a pawn after Mallory grabs the Veto. Much of the discussion centers on the “crossovers” alliance led by returnees Dee, Rick Devens, and Angela Murray, who recruit Drew Campbell and Barrett Pfeiffer to their tight five. Meanwhile, the “red corner” group, Kamuela “Kamu” Kirk, Haley Thogmartin, and Chuk Anyanwu, believe they're running the game, showing just how layered and secretive this season's gameplay is becoming. Taran compares how early-game alliances can change quickly and how being brought in last isn't always fatal in Big Brother. Aman highlights Dee's strategy of overlapping alliances and how Rick Devens's openness with information could make him a wildcard. Mary dives into Chuk's awkward gender-based pitch to Haley and the “fun fact” segment about Ashley never eating a burger. The panel discusses how Jason De Puy is quietly rallying an anti-vet group, but wonders if the newbies will rally before the vets take control. As alliances form and information spreads, will the new players wake up to the quiet steamroll forming, or are the returnees set for a smooth ride?

We have a new state budget, after lawmakers worked over the weekend in Harrisburg. On Sunday, 12 days into July, the state House and Senate approved a $50.8 billion state budget. Governor Josh Shapiro signed a package of bills enacting the budget Sunday afternoon, and praised legislative leaders for their ability to compromise. Legislative Democrats say the budget deal maintains important public education spending. Republican leaders hailed the deal that modestly increases spending.Why Schuylkill and Berks counties likely can't recoup lost warehouse tax revenue.With Immigration and Customs Enforcement pivoting from plans to convert some of its new warehouses to detention facilities, one lingering issue is that local governments have lost millions of dollars in annual revenue because the properties are tax-exempt.

It now looks like that won't happen.The debate over data centers is becoming a central issue in Pennsylvania's gubernatorial campaign.

Nominations openned today for the next Labour leader and – spoiler alert – it looks as though Andy Burnham might clinch it. We strongly suspect he will be the only person to put his name forward, after Al Carns pulled out and rowed in behind the MP for Makerfield.In the background, Burnham's preparations for government are continuing, including a surprise intervention on foreign affairs and an email to the PLP setting out how he hopes to restore hope and a sense of togetherness to the Labour party. One key part of that plan is to soften the whips' office into something resembling an HR department, under which MPs would be free to vote against the government if they wished. That will please a lot of MPs – but is it sustainable?Noa Hoffman speaks to James Heale and Chris Curtis MP.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Over the previous four articles in this series, I have explored the history of Spiel des Jahres, the purpose behind its awards, the way its jury works, and the wider activities funded through its income. Together, those articles painted a picture of an organisation that sees its annual awards as a means rather than an end. Promoting games as a cultural asset, encouraging people to play board games together and providing guidance to newcomers to the hobby have all remained at the core of its mission for almost fifty years. In this article, I want to look at the 2026 nominations and see whether the association's values can also be found in the games the jury has selected.Read the full article here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2026/07/07/spiel-des-jahres-the-2026-nominations-and-the-mission-behind-them-topic-discussion/Useful LinksSpiel des Jahres (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/All articles in this series: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/category/spiel-des-jahres/2026 nominations page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/preistraeger2026/Cozy Sticker Ville nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/cozy-sticker-ville/Dito! nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/dito/Morty Sorty Magic Shop nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/morty-sorty-magic-shop/Buh Party nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/buh-party/Die Insel der Mookies nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/die-insel-der-mookies/Verflixt verzaubert nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/verflixt-verzaubert/Boss Fighters QR nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/boss-fighters-qr/Moon Colony Bloodbath nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/moon-colony-bloodbath/Rebirth nomination page (German): https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/spiele/rebirth/Koschwitz zum Wochenende, interview with Harald Schrapers, 31 July 2023 (German): https://koschwitz-zum-wochenende.podigee.io/562-neue-episodeFive Games for Doomsday, interview with Martina Fuchs, 9 June 2025: https://5g4d.com/podcasts/spiel-des-jahres-special-jury-member-martina-fuchsThe Deep Blue – depth in board games article: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2022/08/23/the-deep-blue-depth-in-board-games-topic-discussion/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/)Music: "Sunshower", "Shade", "Freedom", "Flying" and "Reverie" by AShamaluevMusic.Website: https://www.ashamaluevmusic.comSupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlogPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblogWebsite: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/(Photo courtesy of Spiel des Jahres)

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer ended all speculation about his future on Monday by announcing his resignation, less than two years after guiding the Labour Party to a landslide victory in the 2024 general election.英国首相基尔·斯塔默于周一宣布辞职,彻底终结了外界对其政治前途的所有猜测。距离他带领工党在2024年大选中取得压倒性胜利,尚且不足两年。His resignation means the United Kingdom will have its seventh prime minister in just over a decade. Amid the imminent change, the British pound slid as much as 0.4 percent to touch $1.3181 early on Monday, approaching its 2026 low of $1.3159 set in March, before paring losses. The yield of the UK 10-year gilt bonds, a benchmark for what the UK Treasury pays to borrow money, edged up from 4.84 percent to 4.85 percent, while the yield on 30-year gilts rose from 5.54 percent to 5.55 percent.此次辞职意味着,英国在短短十多年间将迎来第七位首相。在这一即将到来的政局变动背景下,英镑汇率周一早盘下跌0.4%,跌至1英镑兑1.3181美元,逼近今年3月创下的2026年低点1.3159美元,随后跌幅有所收窄。作为英国财政部借贷成本基准的英国10年期国债收益率从4.84%微升至4.85%,30年期国债收益率则从5.54%升至5.55%。Doubts over Starmer's leadership had been growing for some time, particularly after the recent damaging local election results, for which Starmer took personal responsibility.外界对斯塔默执政能力的质疑早已持续发酵,尤其是在近期地方选举遭遇惨败后,斯塔默主动为此承担了个人责任,执政危机进一步加剧。In an address outside his Downing Street office, Starmer said that he had "heard the answer of my Parliamentary party" as to whether he was "best placed" to lead it into the next general election. "I accept that answer with good grace," he added, saying that he would continue until his successor was chosen.斯塔默在唐宁街首相府外发表讲话表示,关于自己是否是带领工党迎战下一届大选的最佳人选,他已收到议会党内的明确态度。他补充道:“我坦然接受这一结果”,并表示自己将留任至新任首相人选产生。Starmer became Labour Party leader in April 2020, replacing Jeremy Corbyn, who had led the party to a heavy defeat in the 2019 general election. He faced three Conservative prime ministers before Labour won 411 of the 650 seats in the 2024 general election. However, although this gave Labour a clear Parliamentary majority, it secured just 34 percent of the popular vote, the smallest share received by any majority government since World War II.斯塔默于2020年4月接任工党领袖,取代了在2019年大选中带领工党惨败的杰里米·科尔宾。在2024年工党赢得大选、拿下议会650个席位中的411席之前,他曾历经三届保守党首相执政时期。不过,尽管工党借此取得了绝对的议会多数席位,但其得票率仅为34%,是二战以来所有多数党政府中的最低得票占比。With the main right-wing party, the Conservatives, having lost support to Reform UK, another British right-wing party, Starmer's critics accused him of focusing too much on trying to win votes from Reform, particularly over immigration, rather than appealing to more traditional Labour or progressive voters.英国主要右翼政党保守党的选票流失至另一右翼政党英国改革党,斯塔默的批评者指责他过度聚焦从改革党争取选票(尤其在移民政策方面),而忽视拉拢传统工党选民与进步派选民。He was criticized for his handling of the appointment of former British ambassador to the United States Peter Mandelson, who resigned over his ties to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The UK's local elections in May further weakened his position.他因任命前英国驻美大使彼得·曼德尔森一事饱受批评,曼德尔森因与性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦存在关联而辞职。今年五月的英国地方选举进一步动摇了他的执政地位。One person cited as a potential leadership contender, Wes Streeting, quit as health secretary earlier, saying,"Where we need vision, we have a vacuum. Where we need direction, we have drift … It is now clear that you will not lead the Labour Party into the next general election".被视作工党领袖潜在竞争者的韦斯·斯特里廷此前已辞去卫生大臣职务,他表示:“我们需要愿景,却一片空白;我们需要方向,却步履迷茫……如今已然明确,你无法带领工党迎战下一届大选。”On the day Starmer resigned, the man widely tipped to replace him, Andy Burnham, returned to Parliament after nine years away as mayor of Greater Manchester.斯塔默辞职当日,最被外界看好的继任者安迪·伯纳姆,结束九年大曼彻斯特市长任期,重返英国议会。Burnham tried to return to Parliament in January by running as a Labour Party candidate in a by-election, only to be blocked by party bosses, whose preferred candidate lost.今年一月,伯纳姆曾以工党候选人身份参加补选谋求重返议会,却遭到党内高层阻挠,而党内高层力挺的候选人最终落败。As Starmer's position weakened, a sitting Labour member resigned his seat, allowing Burnham to run in another by-election last week, which he won comfortably.随着斯塔默的执政地位持续衰弱,一名在任工党议员辞去席位,让伯纳姆得以在上周的新一轮补选中参选,并以绝对优势胜出。Nominations for any leadership election of the Labour Party will begin on July 9 and stay open for a week, allowing a new leader to be chosen before the UK Parliament returns from summer recess in September.工党领袖选举提名将于7月9日启动,为期一周,确保新任领袖能够在英国议会九月结束夏季休会、恢复议事前选举产生。London-based political analyst Keith Bennett told China Daily that Burnham's win made Starmer's exit inevitable.伦敦政治分析师基思·贝内特在接受《中国日报》采访时表示,伯纳姆的胜选让斯塔默的下台成为必然。"The gradual erosion of his authority in the Parliamentary Labour Party and then the Cabinet was turning into a flood that would have swept him from office in any case," Bennett said.贝内特称:“他在工党议会党团以及内阁中的权威不断流失,已然积重难返,无论如何最终都会被迫卸任。”He added that Burnham's win showed that he was a more popular option with party members and the wider electorate. Should he become leader, he could offer a genuine change of approach, although quite what that would be remains unclear, Bennett said.他补充道,伯纳姆的胜选证明,他在党内成员和广大选民中人气更高。即便伯纳姆出任党魁能够带来真正的施政变革,但具体变革方向目前尚不明确。"Much will depend on the make-up of a new Cabinet, but above all, the serious nature of the challenges facing the country remains unchanged.“未来局势很大程度上取决于新内阁的人员构成,但最重要的是,英国面临的严峻挑战并未发生改变。"A change at the top gives Labour a chance to prevail at the next general election, but only a chance — much will depend on how events unfold, many of which will be outside the government's control," he said.他表示:“高层更迭让工党获得了在下届大选取胜的机会,但仅仅只是机会而已,最终结果取决于局势发展,而诸多局势变化并非政府能够掌控。”After Starmer's resignation made him the shortest-serving Labour prime minister in history, London Mayor Sadiq Khan was keen to look ahead. "The local election results showed people are impatient for the change that was promised," Khan said.斯塔默辞职后,成为英国历史上任期最短的工党首相。伦敦市长萨迪克·汗展望未来表示:“地方选举结果表明,民众早已迫切期待此前承诺的变革落地。”speculation /ˌspekjuˈleɪʃn/猜测,揣测,舆论热议landslide /ˈlændslaɪd/压倒性胜利,大胜imminent /ˈɪmɪnənt/即将发生的,迫在眉睫的paring /ˈpeərɪŋ/缩减,削减erosion /ɪˈrəʊʒn/逐渐削弱,流失prevail /prɪˈveɪl/获胜,胜出,占据优势

Our guest purchased the assets of planemaker Sonex and restarted the company. In the news, Customs and Border Protection officers at airports, Eclipse 500 spare parts availability, a Spitfire kit plane, recreating cockpit voice recorder audio from spectrograms, and a new website to track ATC modernization progress. Guest Stephen Osborne is the owner and founder of Top Aviation Services and the president and CEO of The Osborne Company. Shortly after planemaker Sonex shut down, he purchased its assets and reopened operations as Sonex Aviation LLC. Sonex has a history of providing the recreational aviation community with innovative and affordable aircraft kits, powerplants, and accessories. The company is a leader in the homebuilt space and works to cultivate new pilots and airplane builders through educational efforts. Stephen describes how he quickly moved to purchase the Sonex assets, resume shipping kits, and set the tone for the company’s future. Sonex has a strong “work family” environment that serves not only employees but also customers and vendors. As Sonex moves forward, its success will be built on those core values and the mission to make aviation affordable for everyone.

Aviation News Feds Mull Pulling Customs From New York, LA, Chicago, and Other Airports in ‘Sanctuary Cities' Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has suggested removing Customs and Border Protection officers from airports in so-called sanctuary cities where local authorities do not assist federal immigration investigations. Those cities include New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco international hubs. In a recent congressional hearing, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said, “We shouldn't shut down air travel in a state that doesn't agree with our politics.” Airlines and business groups warn of chaos if US restricts international flights In a joint statement, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Airlines for America, the National Retail Federation, U.S. Travel, and other groups said the move “threatens to cause unnecessary chaos throughout the nation’s air transportation system.” “Any reduction in Customs and Border Protection operations at major U.S. gateway airports threatens to cause unnecessary chaos throughout the nation's air transportation system. International aviation networks are highly interconnected, and operational changes at a small number of gateway airports will quickly ripple across the country, negatively impacting travelers, cargo shipments, supply chains, and the communities that depend on those connections. Airports and airlines rely on stable, predictable federal inspection services to keep people and commerce moving safely and efficiently. We urge DHS to avoid actions that would create unnecessary operational and economic consequences for communities nationwide. As the United States prepares for growing international travel demand, DHS should avoid actions that would create unnecessary bottlenecks and economic consequences for communities across the country. Now is the time to strengthen America's gateway infrastructure, not weaken it.” See also, Airlines urge Trump administration not to curb international flights in feud over ‘sanctuary cities' Eclipse Aero Says It Has about 3 Years of Parts in Stock Eclipse supplier Resurgent Aviation Solutions (RAS) says on its webpage that the company “has elected to wind down all business operations and liquidate all remaining assets. All finished goods will be made available for outright purchase using an auction format. The liquidation will be completed over several auctions over the next two months.” Spitfire could return to production 90 years after first flight An original Supermarine Spitfire will set you back about £3 million. The new Aerolite Spitfire Type 433 has been constructed at a cost of about £750,000. The composite kit plane is touring the UK this spring and summer at air shows and military and classic motor festivals. Great British Supermarine Ltd, is the manufacturer. Chief executive Jeremy Meeson, said: “The moment is right to reimagine the Supermarine Spitfire because today's materials, propulsion, and digital engineering finally let us evolve an icon without losing what made it exceptional.” A PDF let the internet hear the final words in the cockpit of a UPS plane as it crashed. The NTSB now wants it taken down The NTSB does not release cockpit voice recordings made during an accident. Other evidence from investigations is released to the public, including photographs, videos, maps, and other data. During a two-day investigative hearing on the UPS flight 2976 accident, a PDF file was released that showed an analysis of the spectrogram of the audio recorded by the CVR. However, the NTSB was not aware “that advances in image recognition and computational methods have enabled individuals to reconstruct approximations of cockpit voice recorder audio from sound spectrum imagery.” Subsequently, the NTSB closed public access to all dockets.
