LOCK HAVEN — As Lewisburg junior Baylee Espinosa was within the final 20 meters of the finish line in the 1,600 on Saturday at the Lock Haven High School Classic the Green Dragon saw the time on the clock Each second seemed to drag on as she got closer and closer: 4:51.00 … 4:52.00 … 4:53.00… Espinosa thought she was going to finally break her mother’s long-time record at Lewisburg which has stood since 2003 But that digit changed as she crossed the finish line and Espinosa came just shy of making school history “As I crossed the (finish) line I was like ‘I’m gonna get it I’m gonna get it’ and then I saw the clock change and I was like ‘ahh there’s no way,'” Espinosa said with a laugh Espinosa ran a time of 4:54.79 on Saturday in the 1,600 and while it didn’t break the school record it did set a meet record for the Lock Haven High School Classic “To set the meet record here in my first year here She knows she’s only a junior and has a lot more track to run to chase the mark of Ashleigh Wetzel who would go on to run track and field at Vanderbilt after competing at Lewisburg in high school that was really frustrating,” Espinosa said of the time “I just saw it and I was like ‘it’s going to be a measly point of a second,’ but that’s OK.” Espinosa is glad to be back on the track and continuing to drop significant time meet after meet Espinosa faced some adversity battling anemia and tendonitis and had to build up from the beginning of the season She started the seeing running the 1,600 with a time in the 5:50s and she’s dropped a minute off her time and isn’t showing any signs of slowing down either “Usually indoor season I’m at the height of my peak but coming into the season and slowly building I was making these huge jumps,” Espinosa said It made me believe that it’s possible that I could have another big jump today.” She did precisely that by running a 4:54.79 Espinosa has beaten every record her mom set at Lewisburg except for the 1,600 and it’s something the two joke about routinely “I have her record in everything else but in the mile she’s like ‘I still got you’ and it’s like ‘for now,” Espinosa said with a smile “She knows I’ve been coming for her for a while but had some unfortunate illnesses at the end of the year I thought I was going to get it this year.” Espinosa noted that she entered the event with some nerves Some of that can be chalked up to competing at the Lock Haven High School Classic for the first time in her career and running on the track for the first time ever “I think there was a lot going into the day I didn’t feel almost in the right mindset because I compared myself a lot to others and got into a negative headspace,” Espinosa said I looked around and saw the trees and said no matter what happens today it’s still going to be a great day and memorable.” Setting a meet record was definitely a memorable day for the Green Dragon running a sub-5 minute time on a chilly and rainy afternoon at Lock Haven on Saturday helped boost Espinosa’s confidence as the district championships are on the horizon “It gives me quite a bit of confidence … The mile’s one event I crown as it’s just so perfect and great,” Espinosa said “The last few times I ran it were unfortunate situations for me but I’m hoping I can come in and do right things I need to do and go out there (and win).” Blaire Balestrini of the Lock Haven softball team was named the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Eastern ..

awarded $22.6 million to 219 humanities projects nationwide NEH has funded more than $6.4 billion to more than 70,000 projects in all 50 states Espinosa received one of 78 NEH fellowships awarded this year to support advanced research and writing projects by humanities scholars Espinosa will use her $60,000 award to research and write a book chronicling the development of medicine in Puerto Rico.  “This award means that others find my ideas and work on the history of medicine in Puerto Rico valuable and important,” Espinosa says and this project has always been somewhat personal since it is taking me back to study something about my home Some of the people I find in my sources are people who I have heard about through family stories.” Espinosa’s project looks at the medical professional and popular reactions to a new therapy technique which became popular in Spanish-speaking countries in 1929.  “Asuerotherapy claimed to cure all kinds of ailments began using the controversial method to treat their patients,” Espinosa says “Many prominent Puerto Rican doctors claimed that they could provide unprecedented relief using this technique Others argued that these practitioners were exploiting public credulity and making a mockery of the medical profession documents how Puerto Rican doctors addressed the controversy by defining the relationship between scientific knowledge Espinosa previously received an NEH Summer Stipend a UI International Programs Summer Research Fellowship and a UI Arts and Humanities Initiative Award that have allowed her to develop her book topic and complete research in archives and collections in Puerto Rico She has also recently received P3 Post-tenure Faculty Support from the Provost’s Office for this project. With the NEH award she will take the time to finish a draft of the book.  Espinosa came to the UI in fall 2013.  and I can confidently say that Iowa’s is the best history department I have ever worked in,” she says to colleagues

Tyler Perry to bring their labor of love After Barbie and Oppenheimer went head-to-head in 2024 this year marked another highly competitive awards season with Anora and Emilia Pérez competing in many categories But one of the films which slipped under the radar this awards season was The Six Triple Eight which tells the real life story of 855 Black women who served in the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion of the US Women’s Army Corps during World War II To fix the three-year backlog of undelivered mail Despite only garnering one nomination at the major awards ceremonies for Best Original Song for “The Journey” the film is easily the best work of Tyler Perry’s career so far While Perry is deserving of praise for bringing this movie to screen work on the film began years earlier with journalist turned tech entrepreneur and producer who is no stranger to undercovering a good story Years before stepping into the world of film producing she was an Emmy-winning television producer in Los Angeles covering all the major award shows Little did she know that this would be a harbinger of things to come She would eventually pivot into tech and ecommerce a member-only shopping website offering flash-sales and limited-time sale events HauteLook would be acquired by retail juggernaut Nordstrom She would then co-found the design-based search engine but the company proved to be ahead of its time But it would be her next pivot that would bring her career full circle What would ultimately lead Espinosa to grace the biggest red carpets in the world wouldn’t be her passions for journalism and fashion It was through her love of World War II history that she first stumbled onto the story about the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion “When I first read the soon to be published article about the Six Triple Eight it was unfathomable to me that such a remarkable story “This was a vital piece of history that deserved to be celebrated and remembered I knew I had to bring this story to light.” She was immediately hooked and knew this story needed to be brought to the big screen There was only one person who she trusted to help make that happen Selig has worked as an executive at a number of major studios She also has over 20 producer credits to her name and another 20 as an executive she bet on herself and founded Intuition Productions a feature film and television production company Espinosa and Selig would embark on a three year journey to bring this film to life The duo would spend the first year developing the project “After I secured the rights to the article Keri and I embarked on our journey to uncover the stories of the remaining survivors of the 6888th” “We traveled across the country at the height of the pandemic It was truly such an honor to meet and listen to these remarkable women talk about their time in the Army over eighty years ago how to locate Corporate Lena Derriecott Bell King (played by Ebony Obsidian) especially after having been scammed in the past the challenge of making this film while King was still alive and able to help ensure the story was told well A breakthrough would come when Master Sergeant Elizabeth Anne Helm-Frazier would introduce them to the then 99-year-old Mrs After a number of visits and building trust It became more of a personal thing than a business thing” With King involved and ready to tell her story there was only one thing left to do—sell it Espinosa and Selig put together a three act motion picture caliber sizzle reel that would eventually sell legendary songwriter to write the Oscar-nominated song “The Journey” before the film was even made It would also be instrumental in selling the film to the cast and Tyler Perry himself After receiving the reel from producer Nicole Avant called me and Carlota and said that he had to pull over; that it was like the women were in his back seat The women were immediately a part of his life” But Espinosa and Selig wouldn’t meet the film and TV mogul in-person for the first time until the day he met Mrs The years ahead would include stopping their lives and moving to Atlanta Perry pulled out all the stops in order to tell the story well Perry opted to use 800 extras on the very streets where the women once served After finding a New York Times article about World War II letters Perry had his team hand write every letter that appears in the film they bought a treasure trove of World World II memorabilia and among the trucks was a locker that was once owned by Charity Adams it was important to do the women’s stories justice “It was one of the greatest honours of his life” King was able to finally see the culmination of three years of hard work as Perry sat by her bedside with an iPad to show her a cut of the movie Espinosa and Selig had also shown King videos from the film set including the dance scene where she fondly remembered dancing to the jitterbug King as she relived the dance scene from the film was a profound moment for me” and I could see her transported back in time Despite their long list of career accomplishments making The Six Triple Eight and helping to bring the women’s stories to life “It was an incredible honor to do this outside of the system “We were kind of left alone to make the kind of movie we wanted to make It was a rare occurrence…You always set out to do a great pic but this one was different because we had a real person we were indebted to We wanted to make sure we made her proud.” The Six Triple Eight is available to stream now on Netflix Kevin Bourne

Learn More I’ve had many a discussion over the years about what it means when a company does its trade show booth right and I’m still not quite sure there is a perfect answer A lot of it has to do with the size of the booth and those intangibles that get described as the vibe the current incarnation of Espinosa Premium Cigars’ booth seems to do it right has the big logoed signage hanging from the ceiling of the hall presents the company’s existing lines without them clogging up space and offers plenty of seating so that those orders can get written up but I certainly like what Espinosa’s got going on as the company has six offerings on display; two of which are new Warhead releases two of which are what are being called Warhead “re-ups,” while the other two are new cigars for Guy Fieri’s Knuckle Sandwich brand 601 La Bomba Warhead 1 Re-Up Espinosa is bringing back two of its most popular Warhead releases for what is being called a Re-Up essentially a re-release of the cigar in its original size and blend but with a modified name—the Roman numerals are gone and replaced with Arabic numerals and the packaging gets a significant upgrade The “boxes” are shaped like a bomb that the company says stays true to the line’s military-inspired presentation It’s an aluminum/metallic body with a detachable head The company said that the first Warhead “quickly made a name for itself with full-bodied strength and an aggressive flavor profile,” which is why it was a choice for the first batch of Re-Ups 601 La Bomba Warhead 6 Re-Up Described as “the most complete Warhead to date,” the Warhead VI was another easy choice for a re-up It’s a box-pressed figurado that originally came out in 2020 and while its blend is the same on paper as the Warhead 1 this particular blend focused on balance as much as it did on the signature strength that the line is known for 601 La Bomba Warhead 11 The Warhead series is getting a lot of attention this year with several releases The first is the 11th extension to the nearly annual series that debuted in 2013 and the company is bringing some firsts to this release an oval figurado that was selected to amplify the blend’s strength and complexity The packaging also takes a big step forward and the cigars placed inside the body of the bomb The company hasn’t confirmed the final production numbers Production: 4,000 Boxes of 10 Cigars (40,000 Total Cigars) 601 La Bomba The Warhead: Independence Day This new installment to the Warhead line is designed to be more than just a cigar with the company calling it a statement of growth and appreciation one that stretches the creative bounds of the Warhead line while honoring its identity It’s made at the San Lotano Factory in Ocotal Nicaragua and should be shipping by the end of May Production: 2,500 Boxes of 10 Cigars (25,000 Total Cigars) Knuckle Sandwich Chef Special 2025 with a new blend that pushes the line into some new territory we kept things very approachable,” said

pulled from game. The bullpen was unable to keep the game within reach and the Padres defeated the Nationals 4-2 Manager Matt Williams said Jordan had been feeling under the weather since late last night "He showed up this morning running a fever," Williams said There was some question as to whether he would even start But we gave him a bag of fluids and he ate something this morning Jordan was sitting down with his head in his hands as reporters arrived for postgame interviews He had his red Washington Nationals hoodie pulled up over his head "I have had this headache since early this morning," Jordan said But Jordan said he was able to battle through as best he could He limited the Padres to one run and three hits I wasn't really focused on much besides getting a couple of outs." Jordan said the pain in his head was moving around and he was in obvious discomfort "(Now) it was starting to go back towards the back It wasn't like totally unbearable or anything Second baseman Danny Espinosa was hit by a pitch on his right knee in the second inning and stayed in the game for two more innings Williams decided he had seen enough of Jordan and Espinosa "He took the ball off the kneecap," Williams said of Espinosa And his spot was the spot when we had to get Taylor out of there Taylor would not have been able to go any further So I figured we would double-switch there." Espinosa showed his knee to reporters after the game The knee also showed the stitches from the baseball where Padres starter Ian Kennedy hit him with the pitch but welcomes the scheduled off-day before the Nats start a two-game series in Houston After Jordan departed, the Nationals bullpen provided an uneven performance, starting with left-hander Ross Detwiler who allowed three runs on four hits in 1 1/3 innings and took the loss "I couldn't throw a strike," Detwiler said "It is something you are out there you have make an adjustment It just didn't translate over to the game." Williams needed Detwiler to eat up innings "We try to get him in situations where he can go one plus (innings) "We will look to get him I there more often we will see if we can get him in there more lefty-lefty matchup It was very uncharacteristic to see reliever Aaron Barrett come into a game in the sixth and walk two batters so the walks scored two runs for San Diego "We had an opportunity tie the ball game up Barrett believes he has found the mechanical issue that might have caused him problems during Sunday's outing Barrett faced four batters and three of them reached base "My leg drive was going forward before my arm had a chance to even catch up no matter what you do mechanically or mentally physically you got to find a way to get guys out and I didn't do that today." Barrett said it is not easy to try to correct a mechanical issue with his delivery in the middle of the game I had an opportunity to leave those guys there But I just got to keep getting better and get them next time." The Leyte Provincial Police Office said that charges of illegal possession of firearms and violation of the election gun ban were filed against the seven policemen tagged in the shooting of Albuera mayoral candidate Kerwin Espinosa Provincial director Police Colonel Dionisio Apas Jr said that some of the 14 firearms they recovered from the policemen were unregistered itong pitong persons of interest…sila ay nasa administrative custody considering na may isinampa ng complaint sa kanila So they will undergo administrative proceedings,” said Apas at a press conference on Tuesday these persons of interest are under administrative custody considering that there are already complaints filed against them so they will undergo administrative proceedings.)

Eden Espinosa is reflecting on her "emotional" journey with Lempicka, encouraging performers to advocate for themselves. Nearly a year after the musical's short-lived run on Broadway, the actress opened up to Bobby Steggert on his Quiet Part Out Loud podcast about the demands of the titular role. "I was literally a shell of a human on that stage," she revealed. "I hate to say this, but I would not have made it any longer than that. Like it was not meant to run that long. No one person was meant to do what I was doing in that role because I was afraid to say no.” Espinosa received rave reviews for her performance, garnering a Tony Award nomination. However, she revealed to Steggert that she wished she had advocated for herself during the process, holding back due to scarcity of leading roles in musicals for women her age. She shares that she has "so much compassion for the desperation and the lack of advocacy for ourselves." "It's wild to me now that I've looked back and go, 'Oh my God,' just so many things with my journey of Lempicka, just not advocating for myself because this is it. There's not roles like this for women my age. I spent this many years developing this character – when's my next one gonna be? When I'm 60?" After years of developing the role and two out-of-town tryouts before Broadway, Espinosa now looks back on the thought of possibly stepping away from the role as it continued to evolve. "When something develops over time and you might not necessarily agree with the way that it's going, so fear of stepping away from it and going, 'I love you guys and I love this. I just don't think that this is the character that we originally signed on for and I wish you the best and I'm going to step away.' That takes a lot of balls and a lot of self-awareness and power. I want everybody to have that in their life.” When asked if she wished she had stepped away from the production, the former Wicked star reveals that she didn't have these thoughts "in real time." "In hindsight, I'm like, 'Oh my God, I was in fight or flight the entire time.' So not aware," she reveals. "I have learned the lesson of just the only person that matters in this instance is me at the moment. If it's not in alignment with my core values, it's not in alignment with my nervous system, if it's not in alignment with my wellbeing, then the answer is no." Lempicka celebrated the true story of renowned artist Tamara de Lempicka. Spanning decades of political and personal turmoil and told through a thrilling, pop-infused score, the musical boldly explored the contradictions of a world in crisis, a woman ahead of her era, and an artist whose time has finally come. The production opened on April 14, 2024, closing on May 19, following 27 previews and 41 regular performances at the Longacre Theatre.  Ready to feel the rhythm of Cuba?
