Jimmy Eat World, Hot Mulligan and Carr are also on the bill.Fall Out Boy emerged from suburban Chicago in 2001 and took their name from a character on “The Simpsons.” After releasing a pair of EPs on the indie label Uprising, they signed to Fueled by Ramen and quickly became one of the emo label’s biggest acts. They played the Warped Tour in 2004 and continued to tour heavily.They broke through on radio with 2005’s “Sugar, We’re Goin Down,” the first of a string of smashes that include “Dance, Dance,” “This Ain’t a Scene, It’s an Arms Race” and “Thnks fr th Mmrs.” But by the end of the decade, the hits had dried up and the band went on a hiatus.Fall Out Boy re-emerged in 2013 and found s...Alvaro M. Bedoya: Hollywood is scanning actors’ moves. What that could mean for the rest of us

Twenty years ago, Jet Li was offered a part in “The Matrix Reloaded.” It was sure to be a hit. But the martial artist said no. In his words, the producers wanted to “record and copy all of my moves into a digital library.” To Li, this would do more than copy his body; it would capture his trade. “I’ve been training my entire life,” he said. “And we martial artists could only grow older. Yet they could own (my moves) as intellectual property forever.”Jet Li’s account is jarring. Yet it’s notable that he was told the job would involve body scanning, told how and why he would be scanned and who would own the data — and then was given the option to accept or decline.That was thenRecent social media posts from background actors who underwent full body scans describe a different experience. Many actors were surprised with scans once already on set. Many were told little to nothing about how the scans would be used or ...Jordan Hicks, the mentor, Brian Asamoah, the mentee, leading Vikings linebackers

Jordan Hicks and Brian Asamoah flew under the radar for most of Vikings training camp.That’s because undrafted rookie Ivan Pace Jr. was seemingly pushing for playing time at linebacker.When the Vikings host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Sunday’s season opener at U.S. Bank Stadium, however, Hicks and Asamoah will be the starters with Pace likely mixing in throughout the game.“We will try to as best we can get as many guys in as possible,” defensive coordinator Brian Flores said. “We feel good about those three guys.”The mentor-mentee relationship between Hicks and Asamoah should help both players once they get on the field. It started last season when they were placed next to each other in the locker room of TCO Performance Center. It has continued this season with Hicks and Asamoah talking on a daily basis.“He’s grown up a lot,” Hicks said. “It’s fun to watch young players really mature from Year 1 to Year 2.”Why ...Man charged after opening fire at St. Louis officer

As interest rates remain high and more homes become available, pricing in the Denver metro housing market remains a science.“If a home is priced correctly, or even under market, it may still receive multiple offers,” said Libby Levinson-Katz, chair of the Denver Metro Association of Realtors Market Trends Committee in the September report.“However, if the price is slightly high, then days on the market climb until you find the right buyer or the right price.”According to the report, active listings in Denver increased 9% in August from July and 19% over August 2022. The average number of active listings for August is 15,900, so with 6,858 active listings last month, the metro area’s inventory remains historically low.The number of new listings increased about 2%. At the same time, pending sales dropped nearly 1%, and closed sales declined 2%. The median closed price dropped to $582,000 while the median days on the market increased to 11 days.“Buye...Disneyland agrees to pay $9.5M in Magic Key lawsuit
