CINCINNATI — The throw from quarterback Joe Burrow to Tee Higgins was poised to develop into a franchise-defining play for the Bengals.

In Tremendous Bowl LVI in opposition to the Los Angeles Rams on Feb. 13, 2022, Burrow heaved the ball towards Higgins, certainly one of his high vast receivers. Higgins turned, leaped, caught the move and bumped into the tip zone for a 75-yard landing and a 17-13 lead early within the third quarter. It was the second TD for Higgins, who had 100 yards on 4 receptions.

The Rams finally received 23-20 to maintain Cincinnati ready for its first Lombardi Trophy. However a play that serves as a footnote is a reminder of what’s potential — no less than for yet one more season.

Between the common season and playoffs, Higgins and teammate Ja’Marr Chase have mixed for 51 landing catches and seven,399 receiving yards on passes from Burrow. However after Monday, this could possibly be the final 12 months Burrow can have this 1-2 mixture. Higgins and the Bengals failed to achieve an settlement on a long-term deal by Monday night, which implies Higgins will play 2024 on the franchise tag earlier than getting into free company.

Even when it should value Cincinnati $21.8 million to have Higgins for only a 12 months, it is a value the Bengals felt was value investing to maintain their passing trio collectively for somewhat bit longer.

“He is one of many high receivers on this league,” coach Zac Taylor mentioned on the NFL scouting mix earlier this 12 months. “We do not need that simply strolling out of the constructing.

“So whenever you get a chance to place a tag on him and preserve him within the constructing and let him play no less than one other 12 months for us, I feel that is essential.”

Higgins has been an enormous a part of Cincinnati’s rebuild below Taylor. When the Bengals drafted Burrow with the primary total choose in 2020, they used their subsequent choose to take Higgins on the high of the second spherical. One 12 months later, Cincinnati added Chase, Burrow’s former teammate at LSU.

These three picks paved the way in which for among the best runs in franchise historical past. In 2021 and 2022, Cincinnati received the AFC North and reached the convention championship recreation in every of these playoff runs, splitting video games in opposition to Kansas Metropolis. Chase (3 occasions) and Burrow (1 time) have every made the Professional Bowl, whereas Higgins has remained productive when wholesome.

Nonetheless, sustaining that success comes at a steep value. At $55 million yearly, Burrow is the highest-paid participant in NFL historical past. Chase is in line for a mammoth extension as properly. Regardless of the shortage of accolades, Higgins’ manufacturing has additionally warranted a big payday.

That is what makes the scenario so precarious. Cincinnati is vulnerable to tying up vital chunks of its wage cap in three gamers. A precedent was set by the Philadelphia Eagles, who’ve given extensions to a quarterback (Jalen Hurts) and two receivers (A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith) that can take up greater than 18% of their cap area in 2025, in response to knowledge from OverTheCap.

The Bengals may tag Higgins for a second straight 12 months, however that may be back-to-back years of paying a premium, totally assured wage.

“You have to be actually even handed together with your cash,” Bengals de facto common supervisor Duke Tobin mentioned on the mix. “You have to decide what’s wanted and what’s simply wished. Like I’ve mentioned earlier than, it is a finite pie, and we slice it up a whole lot of other ways.”

The numbers present how efficient Cincinnati’s offense is when Burrow has Chase and Higgins at his disposal. When all three gamers have been on the sphere on the identical time throughout the common season, Cincinnati averages 5.8 yards per play, in response to ESPN Stats & Data. To place that in perspective, the San Francisco 49ers lead the NFL in that class throughout that span at 6.2 yards per play.

After the Bengals ended 2023 by lacking the playoffs for the primary time since Burrow and Higgins’ rookie season, Burrow emphasised Higgins’ significance to Cincinnati’s success.

“He is a giant a part of what we have achieved right here,” Burrow mentioned in January.

When the Bengals begin coaching camp subsequent Wednesday, it’s going to mark the beginning of probably the final run of Burrow, Chase and Higgins all in the identical offense. It is a chance Cincinnati should maximize if the trio desires one other crack at main the Bengals again to the Tremendous Bowl.

It’s Day 2 of the MLB Draft. Immediately the groups might be conducting rounds 3 by 10 beginning at 1 pm Central time.

In contrast to the large presentation of yesterday’s first spherical, the remainder of the draft might be performed through convention name. You may hear in at MLB.com. The picks right this moment ought to take about 20 seconds every and there gained’t be any dialogue of the picks after they’re made, though usually they take a brief break after every spherical they usually’ll have a little bit of video and dialogue of a number of the picks then.

The Cubs have the seventeenth choose in every spherical to any extent further. They picked two infielders in Florida State third baseman Cam Smith and School of Charleston’s Cole Mathis, whom the Cubs introduced as a 3rd baseman however who hasn’t actually performed there a lot outdoors of the Cape Cod League. Mathis additionally pitches, though he’s on condition that up to focus on being a place participant.

You may learn my abstract of the 2 picks from final night time for extra data.

With out realizing the bonus calls for of gamers, it’s onerous to foretell whom the Cubs will choose right this moment. However a number of the greatest gamers accessible are:

Dakota Johnson OF Mississippi State

Joey Oakey RHP Ankeny Centennial HS (IA)

Mike Sirota OF Northeastern

Kevin Bazzell C Texas Tech

Drew Beam RHP Tennessee

Josh Hartle LHP Wake Forest

These six may all be gone by the point the Cubs make the thirteenth choose of the third spherical or unsignable due to their bonus calls for, however one attention-grabbing title that may very well be accessible is Carson Wiggins, a right-handed pitcher from Roland HS (OK). He’s large at 6’5” and throws mid-90s with a hard-breaking slider and a promising change. Wiggins does have a poor harm historical past—he missed his junior 12 months with Tommy John surgical procedure—and whereas his stuff is promising, it’s additionally very uncooked. There’s a motive he didn’t get picked within the first two rounds. Wiggins could be extra of a long-term venture. However Wiggins can be the youthful brother of Jaxon Wiggins, whom the Cubs drafted within the second spherical final 12 months out of Arkansas. We all know the Cubs love the bloodlines, so he could be somebody the Cubs goal within the third spherical.

Or not.

That is an open thread.

The Republican Nationwide Conference, which kicked off Monday in Milwaukee, is a super-powerful magnet for anybody with even a passing connection to conservative politics. To enter the Fiserv Discussion board downtown, I first needed to cross by Erik Prince and Kari Lake. Ron Johnson flits about, keeping off followers. As I spoke with delegates within the concourse throughout the afternoon session, Jason Chaffetz periodically handed by, like a small piece of house junk orbiting the Earth. I’ve seen conservative influencers and candidates I’ve forgotten about. I simply noticed Mike Lindell. However one particular person is conspicuously lacking. Has anybody seen Mike Pence?

On Monday, as Republicans awaited Trump’s announcement of J.D. Vance as his subsequent operating mate, the person who had joined him on the ticket twice and served alongside him as vp for 4 years was very conspicuously not there. Not contained in the beefed-up safety perimeter. Not in Wisconsin, as far as I can inform. And really a lot not endorsing Trump. If the largest story amongst convention-goers was Trump’s hunt for a operating mate, then the defining story of his candidacy, as Matt Gertz lately wrote at Media Issues, is what occurred to his outdated one.

The wanting it, as you’ll recall, was that Trump pressured Pence to refuse to certify the Electoral Faculty outcomes on January 6, 2021. After Pence refused, Trump despatched a mob to the Capitol to bodily cease the certification. Some members of the mob shouted “Hold Mike Pence!” Apparently, that was not the ultimate straw for Pence—who stated this spring that he had “forgiven” the previous president, however that he couldn’t endorse his marketing campaign, partially, due to his lately declared opposition to banning TikTok. But it surely was the ultimate straw for Trump.

This falling-out over whether or not the final vice presidential nominee ought to have accepted the election outcomes was why we have been spending our Monday ready for the white smoke that may portend a brand new vice presidential nominee. And Pence’s legacy was shaping how Trump’s followers considered the job itself. Once I spoke with supporters of the Republican nominee on Monday, the takeaway from that episode, and the primary administration as a complete, was clear: Trump wanted somebody who would stand by him it doesn’t matter what.

“I don’t even need to say,” stated Rose Roque, a Florida Republican, making a face, once I requested her in regards to the social gathering’s earlier next-in-line.

However her daughter, Rose Rodriguez, was prepared to go additional. “He betrayed his nation,” she stated, referring to Pence’s choice to certify the Electoral Faculty outcomes on January 6. “Though he thought he was doing the proper factor, based on him, he let himself be poisoned. And I feel he already was poisoned—he got here in already being that manner.”

“If Gen. Flynn would have been vp,” Rodriguez continued, referring to Trump’s short-lived nationwide safety advisor Michael Flynn, who had urged after the 2020 election that Trump may order the navy to grab voting machines. “Gen. Flynn would have carried out issues by the structure, he would have upheld the structure and carried out the suitable factor and we wouldn’t be within the mess we’re.”

Pence “gave the impression to be making an attempt to do a balancing act and it by no means actually labored,” stated Michael Rosen, a New Jersey Republican who was standing by an enormous Trump 2024 signal outdoors the sector. Trump wanted “Somebody who’s gonna work with him and never gonna go away him in a lurch on the finish. [Pence] ought to have labored with Trump when he was going via all that stuff as an alternative of throwing his fingers up and saying ‘I’ve bought no management.’ We have been type of left with nothing.”

“He was an important vp till he wasn’t,” stated Mike Bassett, a Nevada Republican. One among his high necessities for a vp was “loyalty to Trump.”

I did speak to delegates who needed governing or managerial expertise, robust communication abilities, and even a little bit of gender or racial variety from their VP. Republicans floated Byron Donalds and Tulsi Gabbard. A couple of particular person pined for Glenn Youngkin. However Pence had solid a shadow over the search. A lot so, that after I completed speaking with Rosen, one other New Jersey Republican, Rimma Yakobovich, piped up together with her personal suggestion.

There was one clear strategy to get a Republican operating mater who completely wouldn’t “stab him within the again,” she stated. Her concept? “Don Jr.”

SYDNEY (TND) — Jack Black’s bandmate made a questionable remark Sunday after the assassination try in opposition to former President Donald Trump.

Kyle Gass, who performs in “Tenacious D,” advised Black his birthday want was for a future murderer to not miss Trump.

“Make a want,” Black stated after singing completely happy birthday.

“Don’t miss Trump subsequent time,” Gass replied.

The previous president survived an assassination try Saturday at a rally in Pennsylvania, the place he stated he was shot within the ear.

A consultant for Gass didn’t instantly reply to a request for remark Monday.

Gass is considered one of a number of musicians who reacted to the capturing. 50 Cent posted an edited image of his album “Get Wealthy or Die Tryin,’” with Trump’s head connected to the rapper’s physique.

“Trump will get shot and now I’m trending,” 50 Cent, whose authorized title is Curtis James Jackson III, captioned the picture on X.

M.I.A. posted “how do you miss all these photographs fired?”

Following the capturing, Trump wrote on Reality Social that “God alone” prevented the “unthinkable” from taking place.

“We are going to FEAR NOT, however as an alternative stay resilient in our Religion and Defiant within the face of Wickedness,” he posted.

The previous president additionally urged People to unite in opposition to “evil.”

“On this second, it’s extra vital than ever that we stand United, and present our True Character as People, remaining Sturdy and Decided, and never permitting Evil to Win,” Trump wrote.

In an tackle to the U.S. Sunday night time, President Joe Biden stated the assassination try ought to compel People to tone down their political anger.

“Whereas we could disagree, we aren’t enemies. We’re neighbors. We’re mates, coworkers, residents. And, most significantly, we’re fellow People. And we should stand collectively,” he asserted. “Yesterday’s capturing at Donald Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania calls on all of us to take a step again, take inventory of the place we’re, how we go ahead from right here.”

Ableton Stay has by no means had a built-in notation view, however one intrepid developer has created one in Max – and it’s free/donation- and community-supported. And it really works fantastically.

The historical past of the pc DAW is certain up with music notation. The predecessor of what’s now Apple Logic Professional was initially developed as [C-Lab] “Notator.” The notational views in instruments like Cubase and Logic hint their lineage again to these early laptop notation instruments; Avid built-in notation in Professional Instruments after buying Sibelius. For individuals who learn music and for musical concepts that match Western notation, scores stay a helpful technique of visualization. (To not point out, by the point you’re working with Max, you too can envision different notational programs!)

I anticipated FBP Clip To Rating to be a crude hack/workaround, nevertheless it works fantastically, particularly after the foremost 0.6.7 replace that simply dropped. It’s bought some heuristics to adapt to the right monitor (trace: you’ll wish to ensure you’re naming what you’re making). Then it is going to choose clef, voice project, a number of voices, and, crucially for these of us working with a number of percussion, Drum Equipment to Rating.

All of this works seamlessly – with occasional interventions in the way it’s arrange or the way you’ve named your components. Instantiate the Max for Stay plug-in, click on open pop-up, and also you get a floating window with a view of the actively taking part in clip. Choose a clip, and that window will comply with playback – even the cursor.

That is nowhere close to as mature because the instruments in Logic, Cubase, or Professional Instruments, nevertheless it does work in a pinch – and it’s frankly mind-blowing to me that this was inbuilt Max. Right here it’s doing a good job of splitting piano voices:

Rhythm tracks work, too. By default, it appears they create up a percussion clef, however that may place the pitches in odd registers; in my case, no less than, I needed to convey up the actual percussion half I needed after which I bought a usable view. On this instance, I chosen “clap” from the clef dropdown on the higher left (simply to the precise of the emblem). Discover additionally choices for key signature, meter, and show.

The largest shock is the superior picture export. It’s described as “fundamental,” nevertheless it’s additionally extremely quick—seize any clip, and you’ll rapidly export a PNG. That may very well be an actual godsend for a lot of compositional and academic duties.

Set up notes

When you jumped in with out studying the necessities, you will have seen one thing like this:

For the second, this instrument is in improvement and comes with out documentation. However right here’s a touch on set up. That you must set up the bach “automated composer’s helper” instrument for Max, a free and open supply instrument developed as a analysis venture by Andrea Agostini and Daniele Ghisi. (It’s additionally donation-supported, with a Patreon account.)

From the Max interface, select File > Present Package deal Supervisor, and sort “bach” within the search subject. Then set up bach, restart Max when prompted, and restart Ableton Stay. (It appears in any other case Max for Stay received’t load bach’s wanted fonts.)

That does it! I suppose this will likely work from Max for Stay even in case you don’t have a Max 8 license, however I’m not completely sure as I didn’t check it.

Notation and Max and Pd

This venture is nice, nevertheless it’s additionally an excuse to speak about bach, cage, and dada. If this was all somewhat too Western / live performance / classical for you, bach has companion instruments masking Twentieth- and 21th-century notations / prolonged notations (cage), and an open field generative graphic instrument (dada). Within the case of dada, you possibly can program the notational system nevertheless you want. All three supply numerous different interactive and generative options past simply what you see right here, and naturally that’s in flip within the Max patching surroundings, so you may have basically an open canvas.

That’s a subject for an additional time, however I’ll allow you to discover – test the tasks web page for concepts just like the one pictured.

And in case you preferred this, you also needs to know in regards to the free and open-source ClickTracker, which helps you to simply produce cues and click on tracks – each of which might nonetheless be very important in laptop music throughout genres as you combine gamers together with your digital productions.
