Another candidate, state Treasurer Sarah Godlewski, paid no state income taxes for two years, the Associated Press reported.

Twenty percent of Asians and Asian Americans said they’ve been encouraged to Americanize or “whiten” their names, according to the poll conducted by Survey Monkey and AAPI Data. That was more than every other racial and ethnic group polled, with the exception of Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islanders, 27 percent of whom reported being encouraged to make their names sound more American or white.

It’s enough to get any baseball fan’s heart beating faster. The season can’t arrive soon enough, so we’ll whet your appetite just a bit, with 20 reasons baseball will be awesome in 2020. That’s enough of an intro, isn’t it? Let’s jump in. MORE: 20 things to watch for during the 2020 MLB season This year, it’s Opening Day, not opening day. That’s right, people. Capital letters. All 30 teams kick off the 2020 season on the same day, not the staggered starts of years past — what a misguided idea — and no overseas start to the seasons where two teams play “real” games while the spring training schedule still has a week’s worth of contests....

Emotion. One of trance’s main characteristics lies in the emotional factor that it places in the listener. Much of modern trance music places emphasis on a “build-up and breakdown” measure associated with progressive trance, which is good in moderation. Be aware that trance music did not start using progressive build-ups and breakdowns until about the late 90s. Prior trance would typically keep the same beat for the length of the entire song....

Severe COVID-19 cases are generally less frequent in children and adolescents than in adults, but that doesn’t mean that young people are immune from the virus’ potentially devastating complications: earlier this year, a CDC study revealed that teens were three times more likely to be hospitalized due to COVID-19 compared to the flu.

The entry list also includes six scooters, which will be making their debut in the rally that will cover about 1,800 km, traversing through some of the toughest and treacherous Himalayan terrain.

The initial joy of having baseball back — you know, that joy that allows you to watch random teams play exhibition games in early March — has long since disappeared.

You could also try battery-powered lanterns. You can have directional lighting to illuminate the area. Looking for a more permanent shade option? Go for a sun shade instead. Add a cooler to the bottom of your cart to keep soft drinks and bottles chilled. You could also lean a trellis against your fence and direct a vining plant to grow up it. If tiki torches aren’t your style, try buying plain Citronella candles and putting them in your own candle holders....

It’s well known that the majority of people playing a free-to-play game don’t spend a significant amount of money on it. It’s the “whales” that keep free-to-play games afloat by spending enough money on the game for everyone, and that’s likely the case with Genshin Impact. Case in point, an 18 year old girl managed to spend over S$20,000 in Genshin Impact over the course of a six week period....

Premium Features at a Competitive Price Despite launching competitively priced products, 1MORE isn’t cutting back on quality. The award-winning ComfoBuds Pro offer better sound quality powered by 13.4 mm dynamic drivers, full frequency sound rage, silicone ear tips, a low-latency entertainment mode, and 1MORE’s QuietMax active noise-canceling technology. Usually, these features come at a price, but it isn’t battery life. While the previously released ComfoBuds can’t challenge the AirPods on playback time, the ComfoBuds Pro are said to run for seven hours per charge, which is almost 50% more than the AirPods Pro....

Since the disastrous World Cup campaign, Joachim Low’s team has been lurching in a bad fit of winter doldrums. Better known for resilience, the Germans would have been expected to quickly turn-around from their nightmare of a poor show in Russian, where they were unceremoniously bundled out at the group stages, with defeats to Mexico and South Korea. That no defending champion has defended their title, since Brazil in 1962, might have given Joachim Low’s charges some reprieve....
