Henrik Lundqvist starts as Rangers host Canadiens at 7 p.m.
The Rangers have earned at least a point in three straight games following back-to-back overtime defeats. They fell behind 2-0 and 3-1 to league-leading Tampa Bay on Wednesday, but rallied to force overtime with three second-period goals before falling in the extra session.
"If that's what we're going to do against the elite teams in the league, I like the direction we're going," Rangers coach David Quinn said.
Jimmy Vesey recorded a goal with an assist in the loss. He has one goal with two assists vs. Montreal this season.


Here is another recent room design from Interior Design Service Online– a peek at a virtual interior designer at work!
Our client requested a sophisticated yet comfortable dining room for her California ranch property. The stone walls are the inherent focal point of the room so the goal was to incorporate textural elements with very subtle pattern to add interest without completing with the gorgeous stone. Rustic wood and an amazing oversized chandelier mix beautifully together for an updated ranch feel.

Tales of the Grove
by Patricia Lynn Henley
Ritual: This 1906 image gives a whiff of creep.
A looming, 40-foot-high statue of an owl. Men prancing naked in the woods. Bonfires. Pagan rituals. Child sacrifice. Secret underground caverns. Sex slaves. Satan's bid to rule the world, with national and international leaders as his leering, eager pawns.
Sound like the convoluted plot devices of a bad horror movie? Nope, just a few of the deliciously outrageous rumors swirling around San Francisco's high-powered Bohemian Club and its Bohemian Grove, 2,700 acres of forested beauty nestled along the Russian River near Monte Rio.
The Grove is home to the club's annual summertime encampment of rich and influential men who gather each July to drink and act goofy in the woods with likeminded males. Presidents, former presidents and future presidents mingle with multinational CEOs and CFOs; military contractors get cozily drunk with admirals and generals; corporate executives share dirty jokes with government pooh-bahs and Supreme Court justices–and they all come together for the afternoon Lakeside Talks about such party-hearty themes as nuclear power and global economics.
It's an odd blend of summer camp and cigar-filled back room. The Bohemian Club insists on complete privacy, which creates an air of mystery that adds spice to the juicy rumors. The club says the annual event is simply high-stress movers and shakers relaxing together with corny rituals and silly skits–just guys having fun.
But conspiracy theorists have a field day with the tidbits that leak out: the annual Cremation of Care ceremony at the foot of the 40-foot owl; comic skits performed by men in drag; drunken campers peeing copiously at the base of 1,000-year-old redwood trees; and claims that prostitutes do brisk business just outside the camp boundaries. From such details rise charges of debauchery, collusion with evil, and Satanism.
Some less sensational critics warn that these outrageous accusations deflect attention from genuine concerns about how the club is managing its property and how connections crafted during the boozy goings-on shape this nation's future.
A fourth-generation Bohemian Club member, John Hooper resigned from the club in 2004 in opposition to plans to cut down more than a million board-feet of timber on the property each year. As explained before in these pages (July 4, 2007), the Bohemian Club is asking the state to allow it to log more than a million board-feet of timber on its property in perpetuity by filing only routine paperwork.
Hooper says the Grove contains the largest stretch of old-growth redwoods left on the lower Russian River, twice the amount of ancient trees located just upstream in the Armstrong Redwoods State Reserve.
"It's ecologically a very important area along the river," Hooper says.
While many focus on what happens inside the Grove, it's important to understand the impacts on the outside world, asserts Mary Moore, who cofounded the Bohemian Grove Action Network and organized protests outside the Grove from 1980 to 2006.
The Bohemian encampments, Moore asserts, bring together the cream of this nation's military, government, corporate and financial circles. In the Lakeside Talks, they're shaping the future of this country. "It's like your ultimate back room on steroids. It's ruling-class bonding, where they cut deals."
Moore doesn't care if the campers dress in drag or if hookers are available. "What I care about is the Lakeside Talks and what they're doing to the outside world as opposed to all this alleged stuff about their cavorting."
A quick Google of "Bohemian Grove" returns a potpourri of facts and conjectures.
Fact: the Bohemian Club is a private, all-male club founded in 1872. It's evolved into an association of rich and powerful men. They admit few outsiders into their camp, only carefully selected guests.
Highly questionable conjecture: Alex Jones, who created the film Dark Secrets: Inside the Bohemian Grove and its sequel The Order of Death, calls the Grove campers "the most powerful cabal on the planet." Another website proclaims, "Your presidents perform annual child sacrifice to Molech Lucifer Satan at Jewish Bohemian Grove homosexual nudist compound in Monte Rio."
These charges are scandalous, delightfully scary–and entirely irrelevant, Moore says.
"All you have to do is read those Lakeside Talks and you get scared enough," she says. "Why do we need to invent stuff?"

Spirit Airlines Incorporated Earnings: Revenue Challenges Continue
Unit revenue declines continued during the first quarter at the fast-growing ultra-low cost carrier. As a result, Spirit Airlines' pre-tax margin fell again.
For the first few years after its 2011 IPO, Spirit Airlines (NYSE:SAVE) achieved rapid profit growth, becoming a stock market darling in the process. However, the company's profit margin peaked in 2015 and has been moving inexorably lower since then.
This trend continued during the first quarter of 2018. While revenue rose at a double-digit rate, this was driven entirely by capacity expansion. Unit revenue declined modestly, preventing Spirit from fully offsetting the rise in fuel prices. As a result, Spirit's profit margin and earnings declined on a year-over-year basis.
Spirit Airlines results: The raw numbers
Year-Over-Year Change
$704.1 million
Total unit revenue
8.37 cents
Adjusted cost per available seat mile excluding fuel
Adjusted net income
Adjusted pre-tax margin
Adjusted EPS
Data source: Spirit Airlines Q1 earnings release.
What happened with Spirit Airlines this quarter?
The big highlight of the first quarter for Spirit Airlines was that its pilots ratified a new five-year contract by a 70%-30% margin. The pilots will receive immediate wage raises averaging 43%, plus improved benefits. The contract also gives the airline some additional flexibility that will help it improve its operational performance.
Most importantly, the new contract should lead to a happier and more engaged workforce, heading off the possibility of future work slowdowns like one that snarled Spirit's operations last spring and alienated customers.
Spirit Airlines also continued its expansion into midsize markets last quarter. The carrier began flying to Columbus, Ohio in February. In March, it inaugurated service to Richmond, Virginia and Guayaquil, Ecuador. Spirit plans to continue targeting smaller markets like these for most of its near-term growth, due to the vicious competitive environment in many of the big hub cities.
From a financial perspective, though, the first quarter was somewhat disappointing. Unit revenue came in at the low end of management's initial guidance range, while unit costs didn't decline quite as much as originally expected, due to the pilot pay increase. As a result, Spirit Airlines' adjusted pre-tax margin slipped to 5.6% from 9.6% a year earlier.
What management had to say
While Spirit's profitability continued to fall in the first quarter, Spirit Airlines CEO Bob Fornaro highlighted the company's achievements in other areas. He noted:
We ran a very good operation in the first quarter 2018, despite numerous winter storms. ... I congratulate and thank the Spirit family for delivering this operational excellence. I'm also pleased to say that during the quarter, we finalized a five-year contract with our pilot union.
Indeed, on-time performance reached a record for the first quarter, at 83.4%. This represents a continuation of the operational improvements that began last year at Spirit Airlines. In the short run, better on-time performance may not have a big impact on net income, but in the long run, an improved customer experience should boost demand for Spirit Airlines tickets.
Spirit Airlines' operational performance has improved dramatically in recent months. Image source: Spirit Airlines.
Looking ahead to the second quarter, Spirit Airlines is planning a 29% capacity increase. (That number is somewhat inflated due to a slew of flight cancellations in the second quarter of 2017.) However, the pressure on its profitability will accelerate.
Management expects unit revenue to decline 6.5% to 7.5% this quarter, primarily due to a shift in the timing of Easter and an increase in the average length of Spirit's flights. Meanwhile, a projected 7.5% to 8.5% improvement in non-fuel unit costs will only partially offset the recent surge in jet fuel prices. On balance, Spirit's forecast implies that its second quarter adjusted pre-tax margin could fall by about half from last year's 17.9% result.
Spirit's non-fuel unit cost improvements will taper off significantly in the second half of 2018. As a result, the company needs to improve its unit revenue trajectory in order to cover its rising fuel bill. Otherwise, profitability will continue to plunge rapidly.

Home » History » Prehistoric Times » Bronze Age
Bronze Age ( 3000 – 1200 BC )
The Bronze period begins around 3000 in Anatolia, around 2500 in the Aegean and Crete, around 2000 in Europe. Bronze is obtained by mixing copper and tin ( % 90 copper, % 10 tin). In this period apart from bronze tools other kinds such as copper, gold and electron, which is an alloy of natural gold and silver are also produced for using in religious ceremonies. The people in this period lived in cities surrounded with fortification walls. Houses are built in rectangular shapes on stone foundations with sundried brick walls and. Agriculture, animal husbandry, merchandise and mine production are the means of life.
Alacahoyuk, 67 km to Yozgat city and 3 hours away from Ankara is the most advanced settlement area in Anatolia from this period. The rich graves discovered here are in shapes of regular stone rooms. The dead is put in the center of these rooms with gifts, in a posture that the knees are pulled up to the belly ( hocker position). Sacrificed and presented during the ceremony, bull heads and feet are left on top of the roofs. Goats and sheep are also sacrificed. They might have been served to the attendants at the funeral. The graves are thought to be used for many generations. Most of the gifts are composed of gold, silver, electron, bronze objects and decorative items such as diadems, necklaces, hairpins, bracelets, earrings made of precious stones like amber, rock crystal, etc. Bronze and gold weapons, sun discs, deer and bull figurines, goddess statues of religious services are invaluable works of art discovered here. For the first time in this period do we find bronze spear heads in Anatolia. They resemble very much to their counterparts in Mesopotamia and Syria which is an interesting point.
Another important place in the bronze age is Troy, Level 1. dated back to 2900-2500 BC. This first city in Troy, now partly unearthed is wrapped up with a 90 meter wall. Houses are in megaron type again and the entrances are from the narrow sides. Walls are stone and set in the herring bone pattern. Troy, Level 2. is dated back to 2500-2000 BC. It is built on top of Troy Level 1. The inhabitants of this level come from the Aegean and Balkans like those of the first level. It is also surrounded with walls but this time they are 20 meters longer. The expedition team uncovered a royal residence that belongs to a king on one of the hilltops. Heinrich Schlieman, the German businessman who dug the Trojan mound in 1870, discovered a treasury at this level of Troy 2. Knowing Homer's Iliad by heart, he was in search of King Priamos's treasury and for years he believed the treasury he had discovered at the site was so. In the last years of his life, however, he was going to learn that the treasury actually belonged to a different level, the level 2, thus, to a different time period.
Hatti Culture
The information about the Hatti civilization comes to us through the Accadian sources (2350-2150 BC). The Hattis are believed to be the one of the indigenous peoples in Anatolia. They lived around 2500 BC in city kingdoms and small tribes and by 2000 BC all of them were taken under the rule of the Hittites. Different from other cultures though,The Hatti art gives us the examples of a human-shaped pottery type (anthropomorphic) rather than an animal shape or a hybrid form. They worshipped such statues and figurines, and each one of them carried his or her name. The Hittites, an Indo-European tribe that came to Anatolia over the Caucasus around 2000 BC, were influenced by the Hatti culture in religion, mythology and literature. Not only did they take the names of mountains, rivers and towns from them; Hittites preserved even the original Hatti name of the country they lived in as "the land of Hatti". It would not be an exaggeration to say that the Hittites formed one of the most interesting and authentic civilizations of the world history with the help of a rich cultural background they inherited from the Hattis over 250 years.
The peaceful times in Anatolia that lasted for thousands of years came to an end with a fierce attack around 2000 BC. There is only the remains of a thick fire layer dating back to 2000 BC in the settlement areas of the central Anatolia such as Alacahoyuk.
Assyrian Trade Colonies ( 1900-1700)
The Assyrian merchants established trade colonies in central parts of Asia Minor in this period. Their aim was to sell and barter the goods they produced for timber, silver, copper and raw material from Anatolia. According to thousands of tablets discovered at Kultepe, the Assyrians had established independent trade colonies here named karum. The gold and silver were the two basic norms for trade, the former for the wholesale and the latter for the retail business.The method of trade was bartering. The donkey was the main transportation animal. This period marks a big interaction and cultural exchange between Anatolia and Mesopotamia. The Indo-European tribes that until then lived on the north of Europe, for an unknown reason, migrated towards south between 2250 and 2000 BC in to a vast area from the Indian to the Atlantic Ocean. During this migration, tribes like Germans, Latins ,Iranians, Cimmerians, Indians and Hellens moved to the areas and the countries around their present day locations. In the meantime some tribes, likeTrojans, Thracians, Phrigians and Hittites got in to Anatolia too.

Top-ranked Kerber stunned
2017-01-14 - Russian teen
RUSSIAN teenager Daria Kasatkina put Angelique Kerber's Australian Open preparations in a spin with a straightsets upset win over the world number one at the Sydney International.
The 19-year-old, ranked 26, underlined her huge potential with a confident performance to take out the German, 7-6 (7/5), 6-2 in a second-round match played in sweltering conditions.
Only last week Kasatkina held a match point before going down to French Open champion Garbine Muguruza in the second round at the Brisbane International.
While she continues her march, Kerber's form is a concern ahead of next week's opening Grand Slam of the year, having also lost to Ukraine's Elina Svitolina 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 in the quarter-finals of the Brisbane International.
Kerber, who had a breakthrough 2016, winning two Grand Slams on her way to becoming world number one, struggled to find any rhythm and her usually strong forehand was astray.
"I made too many mistakes and I was not actually feeling the ball, because the balls are flying here a little bit different than in Brisbane," Kerber said.
"So it was not so easy, but I will try to forget the match as soon as I can.
"I will go in the next few days to Melbourne, and I will try to get ready there, trying to get the positive energy from last year."
Asked about her emotions after her biggest win yet, Kasatkina said courtside: "Difficult to explain because I beat the number one in the world and it doesn't happen every day. I think I got some confidence."

At time whenever I am getting dress, I try multiple options, other times I just let me inner fashionista guide me and grab for whatever is coming off the top of the head. This look was just that, off the top-of-my-head quick go!


Travelers from Chartierville, Que. had to pass through the border crossing at Pittsburg. For 27 years, they talked to Marty Hewson before driving south.
This article was first published Jan. 11, 1995 edition of the New Hampshire Union Leader.
PITTSBURG – On the road to Canada, 12 miles past the last utility pole, 23 miles from the village and 74 miles from the last McDonald's, the unplowed snow on U.S. Route 3 gives a clue as to what kind of day Marty Hewson was having.
Just one set of tractor trailer truck tires has cut through the powdery snow in the southbound lane; no one has traveled to the border since the last plow cleared the way a few hours ago.
Travelers leaving the U.S. over this remote and lonely border don't have occasion to meet Hewson. It's when they come back that they have to stop and for thousands of travelers over the past 27 years, it is Hewson who determines whether they are coming into the country within the legal limits.
Hewson came to Pittsburg in 1968, after transferring from the Border Patrol to immigration. When he took up duty at the station, the uniform he wore, which included a handgun, holster and Stetson hat, earned him the name 'Cowboy' among the locals down in the village of Chartierville.
For the most part, he said, he came to know most of the people who come through and for those he didn't, he always had the time to make sure they were not smuggling guns, alcohol or people into America.
"Some people think that at a little place like this, no one will suspect anything, but we have more time at a place like this," he said.
The mere isolation of the crossing has precluded a lot of important and headline grabbing busts, although Hewson had his share.
In the 1970s, he was kept busy looking for drugs in the cars of men and women who traveled to Canada, recalling those days with a grimace at the dirty bodies he had to search. More than 25 years of reading body language taught him who was hiding something and who was not.
Although passing through Pittsburg is the quickest route to reach Quebec City from Boston, there are no other major attractions nearby that would require someone crossing there. Hewson learned that simple questions about destinations told a story of their own.
To further arouse Hewson's suspicions, the man said he was planning on returning later that night.
A few miles down the road, the border patrol stopped the van and ound instead the driver and five Jamaicans, who had walked behind the border station while Hewson was questioning the driver. The Jamaicans were deported and the driver got himself some time at a federal prison.
Marty kept up the cross of the unknown traveler for years.
Another couple of visitors earned some prison time and a one-way ticket out of the country in an incident that stands out vividly in his mind, involving a Chinese woman in the trunk of a car.
So he had them get out of the car and set about doing an inspection of the vehicle. Eventually, he found a partition that had built into the back !of the car, cleverly camouflaged.
A search of the American man in the car yielded a loaded pistol in an ankle holster.
"I don't know if he had planned to use it," he said.
The woman in the trunk was deported; the others spent time at a federal prison. Ironically, had the woman stowed away in the trunk sought legal admittance into the country, it would have been Hewson who would have been reviewing her application, up until a couple of years ago.
Up until two or three years ago, that was how Hewson passed time at the border station. He would review reams of information filed with the Immigration Department and ultimately decide situations, such as whether a family in Chinatown could bring a grandmother to this country.
But that aspect of his job was turned over to an adjudication center in St. Albans, Vt., leaving Hewson, at time, a lot of time on his hands. Regulations forbid television at the crossing station and although the Canadian customs is a stone's throw away, visiting with that country's border agents is out of the question, because neither side can leave their building.
Just after 1 p.m. this day, the first vehicle to come by in hours was a state truck who had plowed the last 12 miles of Route 3, stopping where it turned into Provincial Route 257. Hewson waved at the driver and waited for the next car or snowmobile to come through. Despite the seemingly slow pace, Hewson never yearned for an assignment at a busier port of call. He grew up in a small border town in upstate New York and when he was in the service, he was stationed for wo years in a remote area in British Columbia.
At 1:30 this day, two snowmobilers halt at the border station. They are a couple from Weare, who were up snowmobiling for the day, had lunch in Chartierville and were returning home. A short time after, two more snowmobilers from Moultonboro and Madame Landry from Chartierville pass through.
Hewson is regarded with affection down in the Quebec community of 250 that borders Pittsburg. When townspeople people put together a book to mark its 125th anniversary, they devoted a page to the border station and a picture of Hewson.
Over the years, he figures he has come to know most of the people in that community, as well as 'regulars' who've gone over the border to get things not readily available in this country. There are devotees of a curd cheese that squeaks when its eaten and is produced a few miles away and a couple from Bow, who periodically come north for a visit to a grocery store in La Petrie.
"The woman likes Red Rose tea and she can only get it up here," he said.
And there are the Canadians who come in droves on spring and summer nights to watch the moose come out just down the road in the famed Moose Alley.
When Hewson locks the door of the border station for the final time at the end of the month, he will leave with no regrets. He and his wife plan to travel and spend winters in North Carolina. Summers he will spend doing some work for the Shrine of Our Lady of Grace down in Colebrook.
Great article Lorna- what an interesting person.


Jeff's Famous Beef Jerky Sriracha Style Ghost Pepper. We worked really hard to get the popular flavor of Sriracha with Ghost Pepper for the perfect fusion of heat and flavor.. lots of fine-tuning to get this exactly right. Just wait until you taste it!
This has a no mistake smell of sriracha, but once you pop it in your mouth, the ghost pepper takes hold. It is fiercely hot, and incredible. It is complex, the more you chew, the more the ghost pepper fades into the heat of the Thai pepper sauce. This is an absolute must for people who like it HOT!"

Two men were arrested at a Nashville airport Tuesday when they were caught with 159 pounds of marijuana in four oversized checked bags.
According to ABCNews.com, 40-year-old Trung Tieu of Philadelphia and 56-year-old Tihn Van Tran of Murphy, Texas, were traveling through Nashville International Airport on their way to Jacksonville when they were stopped by security.
Officers working at the airport used a drug-sniffing German shepherd to examine their bags, which reeked of air freshener. Inside the luggage, police found dozens of plastic bags filled with marijuana wrapped in bedsheets, totaling 159 pounds.
Tieu and Tran were arrested Tuesday night and charged with felony possession of marijuana with intent to sell. While Tran was released late Wednesday night, Tieu was being held on a detainer by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and was not eligible for release.
While prices for marijuana in the United States vary significantly according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the Nashville police said the 159 pounds of confiscated weed would be worth over $50,000 on the streets.

'Glass Onion' movie Reveals shocking facts about Musk, Ye and Trump
December 24, 2022 kakaya36 News
If you're interested in "eating the rich," the past few years have provided a veritable big-screen buffet.
This year alone, there have been films that satirize influencer culture (Triangle of Sadness), phony relationships among rich kids (Bodies, Bodies, Bodies) and fine dining itself (The Menu).
The wealthy people depicted in these films are awful in all of the by-now-expected ways: They're selfish; they mistreat anyone outside of their milieu without a second thought; they wreak havoc on everything and everyone in their vicinity.
The other significant entrant into this quickly growing canon came this year in the form of Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, Rian Johnson's sequel to 2019's Knives Out. In the original movie, the crafty detective with a flair for the dramatic, Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig), solves the murder of wealthy mystery novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer).
In Glass Onion, Blanc is back when a murder mystery game on an island quickly turns deadly. Johnson also adds a new dynamic to the satire: The rich are not only evil; many of them are preternaturally stupid, their legitimacy propped up only by the deference of those around them. The result is an allegory for all of us living with the omnipresent Elon Musk, Donald Trump and Jeff Bezos. (Warning: spoilers ahead).
The film begins with a group of old friends — a politician (Claire Debella; played by Kathryn Hahn), a half-canceled model (Birdie Jay; Kate Hudson) and her assistant (Peg; Jessica Henwick), a men's rights internet personality (Duke Cody; Dave Bautista) and his girlfriend (Whiskey; Madelyn Cline), a scientist (Lionel Touissaint; Leslie Odom Jr.) who works for a tech billionaire (Miles Bron; Edward Norton) and Bron's former business partner (Andi Brand; Janelle Monáe) — receiving a mysterious, beautifully designed package from Bron at each of their homes. The package also comes to Blanc, who's never met the group.
All of these people have known Bron for years, and many of them quickly make reference to his brilliance while solving puzzles inside the package, which ultimately reveal an invitation to his private island in Greece for a murder mystery party. They travel to the island ostensibly to solve the (fake) murder of Bron himself. But after Blanc instantly figures out the game, a real murder happens on the island. Cody is poisoned and dies.
Then, a twist: In a flashback, we learn that Brand is already dead, and her murder will soon be reported. The "Andi Brand" on the island is her twin sister Helen, who has hired Blanc to solve the murder. After some running around the house and an attempt on Helen's life, Blanc brings everyone together and declares his findings: It was Bron who murdered Andi and Cody, the former because she knew a new invention of his was dangerous and she had information that could allow her to take back his company; the latter because he's the only one who saw Bron leaving Andi's house after committing the murder. Sometimes, as Blanc's character explains, the simplest answer is the truth.
Blanc admits that he began to suspect that Bron was not all that he seemed when the billionaire immediately began to misuse phrases, mispronounce words and farm out any creative or original tasks to someone else, both in devising the fake murder mystery (he hired Gone Girl author Gillian Flynn to write it) and coming up with a plan to confuse the guests by turning off the lights (Blanc himself references "turning out the lights" to Bron at another point in the film).
According to Blanc's reveal, this lack of originality and smarts is proof of Bron's motivation: to conceal the extent to which others, especially Andi, are responsible for his company's successes.
For the viewer, Bron's dimness comes as a legitimate surprise. The structure of the film holds up Bron from the start: He's frequently referred to as a genius; not only has he designed the puzzles that determine how the friends spend their days, but they're also on his island, in his domain. He has the money and the power. The more billionaire-skeptical among the audience might not like him, but on first viewing it's unlikely that they catch all of his verbal stumbles because of the confidence with which he delivers them.
Under direct scrutiny from the clever Blanc, though, all of the myths that Bron's friends and followers build up around him quickly vanish. For all of the artifice, Bron is not playing 4D chess. He doesn't have a secret plan. He's just bumbling along.
The big reveal in "Glass Onion: The "genius" billionaire might actually be an idiot. | Netflix
This point suggests there's something more to billionaires' power over all of us than just how they spend their money. It's not only how they use their money to dictate modern work life or bankroll politicians. The ultra-wealthy are increasingly empowered to exert their influence on politics and culture at least partially thanks to many of the rest of us, who are convinced that, by dint of their riches and power, they must know something we don't.
As a result, Americans often become legitimate fans of rich people, particularly ultra-wealthy entrepreneurs, and submit to their rules, mostly voluntarily. This fandom partly explains why efforts to rein in the political influence of wealthy people, for instance, have been weak, and it's why people like Elon Musk can feel compelled not just by money but by popular goodwill to take over companies like Twitter, which only furthers their social influence.
In reality, rich people are no smarter than everyone else; their plans and even downfalls are simple. Peter Thiel is funding artists in New York City and politicians in Arizona because he thinks they'll influence culture and politics toward his vision of a new right. Neither is going well for him. FTX founder and large political donor Sam Bankman-Fried at some point bought the boy-genius myth that he was selling to everyone else, lost a lot of money and landed himself in court. Musk made an offer for Twitter because he was addicted to the platform and thought it would be good to have an even bigger megaphone and now, his companies and his own brand seem to be in freefall. Donald Trump ran for president so that he could watch himself on cable television more, stumbled backwards into the job, tweeted through it and is now hawking NFTs while he tries to dodge prosecutions. Ye, better known as Kanye West, embraced shocking behavior until it lost him lucrative business deals and, reportedly, billionaire status.
At some point, all of these men accrued enough capital that they found themselves surrounded by people who fanned their egos in the hopes of a kickback. But as they settled into these carefully constructed worlds that were built to reinforce their supposed genius, any creative spark or understanding of business or American culture that helped them in their journey to the top is bound to dim.
Glass Onion is not particularly groundbreaking. It's not really news that rich people can be stupid. But just like Benoit Blanc tells the audience, there's no point in overthinking it. A simple explanation of a phenomenon (or a murder), stated out loud, is often the truest.

Jake paul twitter Signs Unspecified Contract With Cleveland Browns 2023.
Jake Paul is joining his hometown NFL team.
The media personality and celebrity boxer joined Cleveland Browns executive vice president JW Johnson at the podium after signing a contract with the team on Friday.
Paul also shared a video call between him and Johnson before their in-person meetup:
Neither Paul nor the Browns specified exactly what kind of contract they agreed to, but don't expect him to be in uniform when the Browns face the New Orleans Saints in dreadful Cleveland conditions on Saturday. (Not that it was the sole giveaway, but NFL players are not allowed to wear No. 00.)
Paul was born in Cleveland and grew up in West Lake, Ohio. He is 6-0 in his boxing career with his most recent win coming against former UFC champion Anderson Silva in October.

What's special about happy chinese new year 2022 ?
Happy chinese new year is also a way to help you better understand the unique culture of the country of billions of people
Let's learn about interesting things in the traditional Chinese New Year below with minionsdeals
Happy chinese new year on what date ?
Happy chinese new year is also known as the spring festival held according to the weekly calendar. That means Tet will be counted from the first day to the 15th day of the first lunar month. There are many countries in the world that celebrate the Lunar New Year, but China is considered to have the most unique festivals and customs.
Since the Chinese lunar calendar is based on the cycle of the moon, the holidays will be different. Normally, the Chinese New Year holiday will be from January 12 to February 20 according to the Yang calendar. Although Tet is celebrated in winter, it is still called the Spring Festival. Because, the time to celebrate Tet starts from the first day of spring and ends in winter. Traditional Chinese New Year is celebrated according to the lunar calendar and is meant to represent a new and prosperous life.
Features of happy chinese new year day
Before New Year's Eve
The Chinese New Year begins on the days before the new year, when people will come together to clean their houses, decorate with lanterns, red couplets and perform many rituals to welcome the new year.
Clean the house
Chinese people have a habit of buying food, clothes and decorations about half a month before Tet. Then, about 3-4 days before Tet, they will clean the house together with the aim of banishing all the bad things in the old year. Often all family members will clean up together, which is both meant to show solidarity and help everyone relax together. Along with cleaning, if the old house can be repaired or painted more trees.
Let's decorate the house together
Chinese New Year custom, after cleaning they will decorate the house together with red paper. According to the Chinese, the color red is said to bring many good things. Besides, they also decorate red couplets, red lanterns at offices, factories, houses, streets… Depending on what animal year is, the Chinese will decorate it in the shape of an animal. It's all around the house.
Praying to Mr. Apple
The Lunar New Year in China is the same as in Vietnam, they also worship the Tao on December 23. On this day, the Chinese also make rice and choose to buy goldfish to worship their ancestors. After that, the whole family gathers together to enjoy a meal on December 23 and release carp into the river. The meaning of this custom is, to see Mr. Tao back to heaven to tell the Jade Emperor about life in the lower world.
The moment of transition between the old year and the new year
Before New Year's Eve, the Chinese will gather together for a reunion meal, watch TV and light fireworks.
Year-end meal
On happy chinese new year, people gather together for the last meal of the year. All family members will reunite for dinner with Chinese dishes and share about what has happened in the past year. In this reunion meal, the Chinese often eat fish, dumplings and shrimp, soup… Then, everyone goes to the square together to celebrate New Year's Eve. On New Year's Eve all family members count down the time together.
If on the night of the 30th Lunar New Year, Vietnamese people watch the Tao Quan together, the Chinese watch the spring program on CCTV. The content of the program with many performances, comedy and the participation of many famous people from various fields came to exchange.
See fireworks
At New Year's Eve, the Chinese organize fireworks to welcome the new year. The brilliant fireworks displays in the sky combined with the symphony brought the bustling spring atmosphere. Along with that are the shows.
On the first day of the new year of the Lunar New Year in China, the people of the country of billions of people also have unique customs such as: giving lucky money, going to the temple at the beginning of the year, wishing each other New Year.
Happy New Year's Eve
Chinese New Year custom is to give lucky money on the first day of the new year. Red and pink bags contain money to celebrate the age of the elderly and children. Currently, when society is more and more modern, Chinese people also give priority to gift-giving transactions via online transfer.
Temple festival at the beginning of the year
On the first day of the new year, temples in China attract a large number of people to worship and pray for good luck throughout the year. In addition, many large temples also organize many interesting activities such as lion dance in the communal yard.
Wish a Happy New Year
On this New Year's Day, the Chinese also give each other wishes. First of all, I wish my grandparents and parents good health and long life for a hundred years. As for the young people, they will wish good luck at work and children will wish to eat quickly, grow up quickly and be healthy.

GrapeRadio Europe is bringing us daily coverage from Bordeaux, France of Vinexpo the worlds largest wine event. Please enjoy.
If possible, please post audio versions of your video episodes. Those of us who would rather spend our hard earned $$ on wine and surf boards than video ipods would appreciate it! Thanks!
New style… new atmosphere… new musics… very exciting!
Thanks Mark and great work. We all love the videos, just don't forget about the majority of listeners who get your content off of iTunes and one have audio players. The stat I once saw was something like 89% of all ipod owners own a non-video version. Now, that might change come friday with the iphone intro, but many excellent video podcasters out there also create an audio only version of the same content. It acutally works for us who like to list while doing something other than sitting in front of our computer. Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Would you trust a pop-up shop?
For most people, the answer is: "Of course not." You may pop in looking for a deal on last fall's designer blouses or local handicrafts, but the transient nature of the model changes expectations for both the customer and the business. Essentially, what you take away in savings, you are paying for in trust.
For companies looking beyond fly-by-night status, building and sustaining trusting relationships with customers is more than a nice perk; it is an investment that pays off in the long term. Niko Matouschek, a professor of management and strategy at the Kellogg School, explains.
Larry Rosen, chairman and CEO of Canadian menswear chain Harry Rosen Inc., finds that there really is a return on investment to foregoing the short-term sale for long-term customer relationship, if it means being perceived as trustworthy. Small changes—like aligning the company's rhetoric to its culture—can have a big impact on the bottom line.

This Week in Apps: GameStop madness hits trading apps, Apple
Welcome back to This Week in Apps, the weekly TechCrunch series that recaps the latest in mobile OS news, mobile applications and the overall app economy.
The app industry continues to grow, with a record 218 billion downloads and $143 billion in global consumer spend in 2020. Consumers last year also spent 3.5 trillion minutes using apps on Android devices alone.
And in the U.S., app usage surged ahead of the time spent watching live TV. Currently, the average American watches 3.7 hours of live TV per day, but now spends four hours per day on their mobile devices.
Apps aren't just a way to pass idle hours — they're also a big business. In 2019, mobile-first companies had a combined $544 billion valuation, 6.5x higher than those without a mobile focus. In 2020, investors poured $73 billion in capital into mobile companies — a figure that's up 27% year-over-year.
This week, we're taking a look at the biggest news in the world of apps, including how the GameStop frenzy impacted trading apps, as well as how Apple's privacy changes are taking shape in 2021, and more.
The internet comes for the stock market, via trading apps
Image Credits: TechCrunch
Was there really any other app news story this week, beside the GameStop short squeeze? That a group of Reddit users took on the hedge funds was the stuff of legends, even if the reality was that Wall Street likely got in on both sides of the trade. Whether you found yourself in the camp of admiring the spectacle or watching the train wreck in horror (or both), what we witnessed — at long last, I suppose — was the internet coming for the stock market. The GameStop frenzy upended the status quo; it rattled the traditional ways of doing things — much like what the internet has done to almost everything else it touches — whether that's publishing, media, creation, politics, and more.
"This is community," explained Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian, in an interview on AOC's Twitch channel on Thursday.
"This is something that spans platforms and the internet, especially in the last 10 years — in particular social media and smartphone ubiquity. All these things have connected us in real-time ways to organize around ideas, around concepts," he continued. "We seek out those communities. We seek out that sense of identity. We seek out that sense of connection. And the internet supercharges it because of scale," he said. "I think one of the byproducts of where I think it continues to go is more of a push towards decentralization and more of a push toward individuals being able to take ownership — even individuals being able to get access — to do the same things that institutions, historically, had a monopoly on," Ohanian noted.
Trading app Robinhood and social app Reddit, home to the WallStreetBets forum driving the GameStop push, immediately benefitted from the community-driven effort to squeeze the hedge funds — and jumped to the top of the App Store.
But Robinhood's subsequent failure to be transparent as to why it was forced to stop customers from buying the "meme" stocks, like GameStop and others (it needed more cash), quickly damaged its reputation. Some investors have now sued for their losses. Others started petitions. And even more began downranking the app with one-star reviews, which Google then removed.
The Robinhood incident is a good reminder to founders: when you don't tell people the real problem because you're worried about how bad it will look, you almost always are rewarded by coming away looking much, much worse. pic.twitter.com/NiBBGZPvSS
— Zack Kanter (@zackkanter) January 29, 2021
Other trading apps have gained not only during the frenzy itself, but also after, as Robinhood users looked for alternative platforms after being burned by the free trading app.
As of Friday, Robinhood remained at No. 1 on the App Store, but is now being closely trailed on the Top Free iPhone apps chart by No. 2 Webull, No. 6 Fidelity, No. 7 Cash App, No. 12 TD Ameritrade and No. 15 E*TRADE, among others.

In addition, forums where traders can join communities are also continuing to do well, with Reddit at No. 3, Discord at No. 14 and Telegram at No. 28, as of the time of writing.
Google says it will add those Apple privacy labels…sometime!

Google failed to meet its earlier promised deadline of rolling out privacy labels to its nearly 100-some iOS apps. Its initial estimate followed suggestions (aided by Apple's typical quiet confirmations to press), that Google had been struggling over how to handle the privacy issues the updates would reveal. This week, Google again said its labels were on the way. But now, it's not making any specific promises about when those labels would arrive. Instead, the company just said the labels would roll out as Google updated its iOS apps with new features and bug fixes, rather than rolling out the labels to all its apps at once.
However, some Google apps have been updated, including Play Movies & TV, Google Translate, Fiber TV, Fiber, Google Stadia, Google Authenticator, Google Classroom, Smart Lock, Motion Stills, Onduo for Diabetes, Wear OS by Google and Project Baseline — but not Google's main apps like Search, YouTube, Maps, Gmail or its other productivity apps.
Apple's IDFA changes to begin this spring
Image Credits: Apple (livestream)
Apple announced this week its tracking restrictions for iOS apps are nearing arrival. The changes had initially been pushed back to give developers more time to make updates, but will now arrive in "early spring."
Once live, the previous opt-out model for sharing your Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) will change to an opt-in model, meaning developers will have to ask users' permission to track them. Most users will likely say "no," and be annoyed by the request. Users will also be able to adjust IDFA sharing in Settings on a per-app basis, or on all apps at once.
Facebook has already been warning investors of the ad revenue hit that will result from these changes, which it expects to see in the first quarter earnings. It may also be preparing a lawsuit. Google, meanwhile, said it would be adopting Apple's SKAdNetwork framework and providing feedback to Apple about its potential improvements.
For years, Apple has been laying the groundwork to establish itself as the company that cares about consumer privacy. And it's certainly true that no other large tech company has yet to give users this much power to fight back against being tracked around the web and inside apps.
But this is not a case of Apple being the "good guy" while everyone else is "bad" — because the multi-billion-dollar ad industry is not that simple. With a change to its software, Apple has effectively carved out a seat at the table for its own benefit.
What many don't realize is that Apple watches what its users do across its own platform, inside a number of its first-party apps — including in Apple Music, Apple TV, Apple Books, Apple News and the App Store. It then uses that first-party data to personalize the ads it displays in Apple News, Stocks and the App Store.
So while other businesses are tracking users around the web and apps to gain data that lets them better personalize ads at scale, Apple only tracks users inside its own apps and services. (But there sure are a lot of them! And Apple keeps launching new ones, too.)
With the new limits that impact the effectiveness of ads outside of Apple's ecosystem, advertisers who need to reach a potential customer — say, with an app recommendation — will need to throw more money into Apple-delivered advertising instead. This is because Apple's ads will be capable of making those more targeted, personalized and, therefore, more effective recommendations.
Apple says it will play by the same rules that it's asking other developers to abide by. Meaning, if its apps want to track you, they'll ask. But most of its apps do not "track" using IDFA. Meanwhile, if users want to turn off personalized ads using Apple's first-party data, that's a different setting. (Settings –> Privacy –> scroll to bottom –> Apple Advertising –> toggle off Personalized Ads). And no, you won't be shown a pop-up asking you if that's a setting you want on or off.
Apple, having masterfully made its case as the privacy-focused company — because wow, isn't adtech gross? — is now just laying it on. Apple CEO Tim Cook this week blamed the adtech industry for the growth in online extremism, violent incitement (e.g. at the U.S. Capitol) and growing belief in conspiracies, saying companies (cough, Facebook) optimized for engagement and data collection, no matter the damage to society.

Buzzy voice chat app Clubhouse raises $100 million, valuing the business at $1 billion. Despite being launched under a year ago and remaining an invite-only experience for the time being, the app has been carving out a new form of audio-based social networking. With now over 180 investors and a pandemic coming to an end — perhaps — with the vaccine rollout, Clubhouse will soon have to prove it has value in a reopened world where there's more to do, including, once again, networking events and conferences. It will also eventually have to contend with what sort of app it becomes when it finally opens up to the public. So far, its private, insiders-only atmosphere has given it something of a protected status. Though conversations have turned toxic at times, only a few users ever heard them — and there's no transcript. When the world piles in, however, Clubhouse could not only lose its exclusive appeal but also become host to conversations that do real harm.

Armed homeowner finds fugitive hiding in trash can

After just one day on the run, a wanted fugitive is back in police custody thanks, in part, to an armed homeowner in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
Johnathan Ware, 31, was found hiding in the homeowner's trash can early Wednesday morning, local media reported. The homeowner, in turn, held Ware at gunpoint until police arrived.
Ware was in the custody of the Harrisburg Police Department Tuesday when he escaped. According to a news release from the Jonesboro Police Department, Ware was arrested following a domestic disturbance in which he was injured and taken to the hospital for medical treatment.
However, as Ware was being transported back to the police department, he managed to get his handcuffs in front of him and break the glass in the rear door of the patrol car. Ware then jumped from the moving vehicle. Ware's escape led to a massive multiple-agency manhunt, but he wasn't found until the following morning.
The homeowner who found Ware said he was walking his wife to her car that morning around 6:30 a.m. when he heard something, then noticed his trash can move. He opened the lid to find Ware hiding inside, still in handcuffs and still wearing the same clothes in which he escaped. The homeowner then held Ware at gunpoint until police arrived, about a minute later.
Ware was taken into custody at the home without further incident. Now, in addition to the felony second-degree battery charge he was originally facing, he also faces charges of mischief, escape, fleeing, and criminal trespassing. Ware, who has a lengthy criminal history which includes at least one prior escape, is currently being held at the Poinsett County Detention Center.
Harrisburg police said Wade's original assault charge stemmed over a dispute Tuesday morning with another man, John Worsley. The dispute erupted after Worsley told Ware to stop harassing his mother, prompting Ware to strike Worsley in the head with a gold club. Worsley, in turn, stabbed Ware in the lower back, he claimed, in self-defense. Ware was taken to the hospital for treatment of the stab wound when, on the way back to the police department, he made his escape.
