Azerbaijan and Armenia are once again on the brink of war over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. 16 soldiers have been killed after three days of fighting: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-53402476

 

Add that to the list of ever growing international conflicts this year, though this one has been somewhat continuous since the end of the Soviet Union.

But the good news is that the local Covid outbreak is over, then.

Man, between the World Cup Schedule announcement, Dakar 2022 (2026) announcement, and the World Games 2022 announcement; it’s been a busy morning. All on a random Wednesday as well.

The 2021 Rose Parade (huge deal in U.S.) has been cancelled due to Covid-19. 

More importantly, what about the Rose Bowl Game?

There’s a good chance the entire season will be postponed. Some leagues have already announced no fall sports will take place. There’s the possibility of a spring season, but it’s a rough outlook for college football this year.

    • Last Call For Entries!!   If anyone still wants to enter, this is your last chance to do so. Since I now won't be able to use tomorrow as a voting day I have dedcied to give people an extra 24 hours from this point to enter. The public jury vote will still open at the advertised time. Below I have tagged user from countries that have yet to enter, hopefully they will consider to do so at the last opportunity:   South Korea: @erw@jgb0062 Croatia: @Nikica@snk911@VISOKO Gabon: @Damienyork Belgium: @ALABRAMMIE@Misterxxt Latvia: @Blueniceguy Dominican Republic: @eduardo096 Singapore: @bennetcraig39 Egypt: @mahmoud elrefaei @thepharoah Qatar: @amrgunenr1@KAE Australia: @Sir Rols@Stu192 @dullard Philippines: @JohnRamos84 @PHI2019 @Tigercub Iran: @Hesamkh1990 @MHSN Estonia: @Katie_M Bangladesh: @Razu Ahmed  Montenegro: @ChandlerMne Hong Kong: @pacowong1223    Also @NaBUru38 I know you said you weren't up for doing it due to time but do you think you would reconsider? The process would now only take 3 days with you sending your song Tuesday and voting on Thursday, which isn't really too much time taken up.

    • Not to the public until end of Wednesday, entry deadline is under 5 hours from now. Gonna see if I can persuade a couple more to join, like our Uruguayan friend who said he would be able to join due to time but now might be able to with the short turn around.

    • What can you expect from a simple woman from Magadan? As long as she was just running around and not talking, it was okay, but since she became an head of the federation in Rus and started talking this nonsense, it turned out that she was empty-headed. On top of that, she's fat as a pig. Disgusting person inside and out.
