My guess is not very long and it's a cascading issue.
Consider the missed SEP data. Some 1st closing tasks not done. EDI center can't check 2nd closing data. Sector analyst outliers/atyping? Birth-death? Qs to state LMI shops? etc.
Then there's OCT data! The longer it goes, the more it backs up.

Whether the respondents are submitting through the EDI center or on IDCF/CATI, ultimately someone on respondent side has to proactively "submit" something. Then, program office has to review.
If program office is furloughed, the data can't be used for estimation anyway.

To me, what drives that is the establishment surveys (CES, NCS, OEWS, etc.) are payroll surveys counting positions... not persons; administrative from the point of view of the employer records.
But with household surveys like ACS, ATUS, CPS, etc it really is "what is this particular person doing?"

Campbell is 86 on the Cowboys, right side of protection (you can see his jersey in the close up). What's crazy is Julius Peppers had ALREADY blocked a FG at the end of the 2Q. Didn't get credited for a block (penalty for running into the kicker) here, but it's wild. www.panthers.com/news/julius-...

Been playing many, many replays of Hearts of Iron 4 as Japan with the Democratic revolution option (to flip them into being good guys) lately... and D is absolutely crucial for the fuel.

In particular Guerrilas in the Midst is a believable 1990s rap hit. Such a badass track.

I didn't even like the movie much, but 4*Town was amazing.
Would pay good monies to see a fake concert behind the scenes D+ thing with the band or have them show up as a cameo in another animated film set around the same time in the early 2000s.

I saw someone else post a copy recently and had never seen it before. Did some looking and thought you might want to see what I found (thanks for posting, it helped by giving a timeframe reference): "Connect the Dots" by John McNamee on The Nib. thenib.com/connect-the-...

Alright, i'm sold. Seen this in passing while browsing for something to watch, but didn't click. Gonna add to list now and try it.

Yep, probably should have gone with the ten peso version.

Adding on some more context - to what @adambonin.bsky.social said below. The water bottle lean back+spit mist is a bit that Triple H did as part of his ring entrance in WWE pro wrestling.
The target demo is pro wrestling fans. If you didn't already know who Triple H is, then you're not the target.

This sent me down a weird ass rabbit hole of Bloodsport lore. The Chong Li character is supposed to be a Chinese guy who was from Korea???
So the answer is indeterminate; you can pretty much imagine whichever to be correct in this fictional setting and be right.

South Korea's flag has four of the trigrams but the Taoist stuff is more likely what Bloodsport was going for, so Chinese probably more appropriate.

Hell yes 08th MS Team. The Origin was much better than anticipated.
Kind of sad to see no Stardust Memory or Gundam X on the list, though.

The blocking traffic example paragraph is outstanding. It is a written out version of everything I think every time I see one of those types of inconvenience-inflicting demonstrations. "You are just pissing people off and turning them against your cause." There's no larger strategy behind any of it.

Yeah, RNs is probably right by detailed SOC. Professions usually subdivide (e.g. K-12 teachers split between K-8 and HS) but not 29-1141 Registered Nurses (3.2m in OEWS). RNs combine high pay + sheer numbers.
Most "big" 3m+ 6-digit SOCs are lower-paid like retail salespersons or fast-food workers.
