Before taking stage at Empower Field at Mile High on Friday night Taylor Swift made a generous donation to the Food Bank of the Rockies.
projects that 1 in 11 people are currently experiencing hunger in the region. Swift’s donation comes at a crucial time.
“We are seeing more need now than we ever have before. This is hitting Food Bank of the Rockies’ budget hard. To meet the needs of our neighbors experiencing hunger, we are spending triple what we were pre-COVID on food purchasing every month,” said Aditi Desai, chief marketing officer, in a news release. “We’ve been able to meet the increased demand thanks to the generosity of individuals like Taylor Swift.

Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transientWe report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/Optical Telescope (Swift/UVOT) during the follow-up of Gravitational Wave alert S190930t, to which it is unrelated. Swift/UVOT photometry shows the UV spectral energy distribution of the transient to be well modelled by a slowly shrinking black body with an approximately constant temperature of T~2.5x10^4 K. At a redshift z=0.5205, J221951 had a peak absolute magnitude of M_u,AB=-23 mag, peak bolometric luminosity L_max=1.1x10^45 erg s^-1 and a total radiated energy of E|2.6x10^52 erg. The archival WISE IR photometry shows a slow rise prior to a peak near the discovery date. Spectroscopic UV observations display broad absorption lines in N V and O VI, pointing toward an outflow at coronal temperatures. The lack of emission in the higher H~Lyman lines, N I and other neutral lines is consistent with a viewing angle close to the plane of the accretion or debris disc. The origin of J221951 can not be determined with certainty but has properties consistent with a tidal disruption event and the turn-on of an active galactic nucleus.
