This is good news, ... which seems to be in short supply right now. The Olympics is one of the very few sporting events besides the Masters that I make it a point to watch.
"Athletes who already qualified for 2020 Olympics will keep their spot in 2021"
No need to worry about the economy after Covid 19. Ivanka Trump is going to help fix it:
"Report: Ivanka Trump to Pause Guitar Lessons to Rescue Entire Economy"
"Two things you likely know about Donald Trump by now are that he’s a pathological liar and creepily obsessed with his eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump. While it would be nice for humanity if, in the midst of major crisis, he could ease up on the cascade of bullsh*t that flows from his mouth and/or the categorically insane remarks about his child, that’s just not the way he rolls. Instead, on Tuesday he managed to jack things up a notch.
Hosting a call with business leaders to discuss what the administration is doing to provide financial relief to small businesses, the president put it out there that his daughter, whose professional experience peaked with a failed clothing line, has personally created, wait for it, 15 million jobs."
"Trump tweets about ratings for his coronavirus press briefings for the 3rd day in a row as US death toll surpasses 18,000 and unemployment nears 17 million"
"President Donald Trump has repeatedly bragged about high TV ratings for his daily coronavirus press briefings.
Trump has tweeted about ratings three days in a row this week, suggesting they're proof that critics of his handling of the coronavirus pandemic are wrong.
As Trump focuses on ratings, the US surpassed 18,000 deaths from coronavirus as of Friday afternoon.
Almost 17 million Americans have also filed for unemployment in recent weeks as a consequence of the pandemic."
Thank you for posting this video. It's awesome! I love how the what many see as negative is flipped on its head. It's very empowering! You've lifted me out of the doldrums today. Thank you
Thanks for bringing some positive inspiration out of all of this. Yes, a long way to go, but true determination will help us get there more quickly, and feel better about what we achieve.
Stay positive, stay strong, stay safe.

Those vids are very nice, fun and well done. They don't help us with trying to figure this thing out though but they are a nice diversion so thanks for posting them. Here's one that's very interesting from a doctor in a NYC ICU:
His point is the same one I read a few days ago and it also has to do with what is called "proning" It means to flip over and lay on your stomach. That doctor specifically talked about getting more oxygen into the lungs and lowering the ventilator pressure needed for that or even not needing a ventilator. Just a standard oxygen tube could be enough. Laying on your stomach pushes your heart to the side just a touch which opens the bottom of your lungs enough to help with that.
If we needed another reason to think our Federal Government has lost touch with reality:
"Oh Thank God: Trump Appoints Ivanka and Jared to Council to Reopen America"
"Pop quiz time! An unprecedented pandemic has killed more than 118,000 people worldwide and infected more than 1.9 million. The U.S. just surpassed Italy as the country with the highest number of deaths. As a result of people necessarily being told to stay home, i.e. the only way at this point to slow the spread, the economy is in shambles. Almost 17 million Americans have filed for unemployment, with some predicting that 20 million will be out of work by the end of the month. Economists believe the chance of a recession within the next twelve months is 100%, with many saying the country is already in one. You, as president, are in charge of said country. What do you do? If you’re Donald J. Trump, you (1) resist mass testing or really any semblance of a plan for developing virus-tracking measures that could, in theory, help some parts of the population safely return to work, and (2) appoint your idiot daughter and son-in-law to your economic task force, because scarily, in a family of certifiable morons, they’re considered the smart ones."
Hi Bob, The actual figures dead on Corona Uk 13,000 65 million population US 24,000 330 million population EU 68,000 450 million population China ???? estmated up to 250,000 dead but who knows.
Even if you adjust the EU figures for higher population then you can see that the US (even though it had a case before the EU )is about 60% less deaths than the EU. The only other president that was threated anyway like Pres Trump was Pres Bush the younger.But even that threatment ,the name calling etc was a drop in the ocean .Here is Bush on the pandemic in 2005 now being called a visionary in 2020 by the same people who called him a lunatic in 2005. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spcj6KUr4aA H
................ How much evidence does it take for people to realize we have a lunatic at the helm?
If you insist on keeping it political I will just add that this "lunatic at the helm" is one hell of a lot better that the last four lunatics we had at the helm.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

If your information is correct, it appears that you're from Ireland.
I can't recall anyone on the forum ever trying to stick their nose in the pervasive issues in your country.
Do you recall anything of that nature?
Our country is in jeopardy from someone who is totally clueless and it affects all of our lives.
If you are in Ireland, how about minding the business of your country and let those of us affected by this moron decide for ourselves.
Thanks
Bob,
With all respect, and I mean that sincerely, that is an unfair comment. This is a forum that's for all of us around the world to use.
If you post comments in a Canadian forum that has a pretty huge selection of people of many nationalities, then all those nationalities are entitled to comment on your posts. Otherwise, why on earth post here?
If you don't like comments from other countries, don't post USA politics here. I'm sure there is a USA forum somewhere that would do the job much better.
I'm suddenly reminded of that old saying that goes something like, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em". I've done my very best to steer things away from politics and Trump, blah, blah, blah, but it keeps on coming back. I guess I'll just have to start voicing my opinions on USA politics and what my local papers and political and economic analysts are saying. It should go down a treat. For what it's worth, most comments that appear in my local papers parallel and support the thoughts you share in your posts.
I know it's a time of angst for all right now but let's not lose sight of the fact that this is a global music forum and not a USA-specific platform for raucous politics.
Please stay safe, Noel

Thanks Mario, I learned a long time ago it is very easy to stir up the hate pot when you have nothing to loose.

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
