Four defense contracts worth 7 billion euros ($9 billion) and 85 other state deals are being investigated by Greek prosecutors trying to root out possible fraud, the newspaper Kathimerini reported. The defense procurement deals were approved in 2001 by former defense minister
Yiannos Papantoniou, who succeeded fellow PASOK member Akis Tsochatzopoulos as Greece's defense minister in 2001. Tsochatzopoulos is in jail awaiting a trial on charges of money-laundering involving other defense contracts during his tenure.
The programs that are under scrutiny include the purchase of 12 Apache helicopters from Boeing, the procurement of Leopard tanks from Germany, a contract for Type 209 submarines and the upgrading of six frigates.
The authorities have already requested access to bank accounts held by Papantoniou and members of his immediate family, Kathimerini reported.
Financial prosecutor Spyros Mouzakitis has also ordered an investigation into 85 state deals that were rejected by the Independent Authority for Public Contracts on the grounds that they were not made through open tender but via direct assignment without any bidding.

The price of men's haircuts could cost upward of $80 for a simple fade. That's what is happening in Philly.
Popular social media barbers who are influencers like Kenneth Carruth IV, also known as The4thKen on TikTok, are raising the prices of their services to meet the demands of clients, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported.
A Pricey Cut
Haircuts that once costs $15 are now priced between $80 and $100. The rise in prices started during the pandemic, and inflation has boosted them even higher.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics also reports that haircut prices increased nearly 7 percent in November 2022 in a year-over-year comparison.
Haircut price hikes seem to be a trend among younger barbers, who, like Carruth, 20, think, "a lot of older barbers that are stuck in their ways that refuse to change, and unfortunately, they're more than likely gonna get left behind."
TikTok Barbers
Carruth, who has more than 1.8 million likes on TikTok, believes that the pandemic has assured barbers are more needed than previously perceived–and this more valuable.
"I feel like pre-pandemic, barbers were undervalued. Now, barbers are starting to realize their worth and see that it's not just about the cut. You're providing an experience," Carruth said.
"My client paid me $80 for this haircut," Carruth said. There are videos of the young barber with a listing of prices that are $100 and up.
Jalen Thompson, a 23-year-old barber in West Philadelphia, charges between $45 and $75 for haircuts and sometimes more than $120 if they are house calls.
And while the prices of the haircuts are more lucrative, Thompson told the Inquirer some of his customers opted to look elsewhere for an affordable haircut.
According to Salary, as of Dec. 27, the average Philly barber has a yearly income of $35,310, but the range typically is between $28,426 and $42,523.
Important factors such as a barber's education, certifications, additional skills, and professional experience determine one's earnings.
Haircuts and Inflation
There is an old belief that you can gauge inflation by the cost of a haircut. Many economists say that when haircut prices increase, it's a sign that inflation has affected the economy.
When the U.S. was on an economic upswing between 2010 and 2012 following a recession, haircut prices remained relatively flat. The cost did increase as the last expansion continued and there was a labor shortage. But, reported The Wall Street Journal, that price hike didn't compare to haircut prices currently reflecting the pace of inflation.
So why is the price of a haircut tied to economic health? The cost of running a barbershop or salon has two main expenses, rent and labor, both of which cost more during inflation.
According to Stephen Cecchetti, a Brandeis University international finance professor who tracked inflation for the White House when prices were soaring during the 1970s, the spike in haircut prices matches his estimate that underlying inflation is more than 5 percent, and won't drop quickly.
"Most of this inflation is now built into the system in a way that is going to take time and effort to get rid of," Cecchetti told The WSJ.

Campagnolo Shamal Ultra C17 Clincher Wheels - Options
Usually shipped within 24 hours
Usually shipped within 24 hours
The Shamal wheelset represents somewhat of a cornerstone in fine performance wheelworks and as such it has been at the forefront of innovation since its inception over 20 years ago. Born as the very first complete wheelset with each component in its build being specifically designed as a complete unit to ensure unparalleled efficiency and performance, the Shamal continued to introduce new technologies that would change the way aluminum performance wheels were produced. So advanced was the Shamal in its early stages that it was found also in World Tour competition often and to this day is still one of the most race ready aluminum wheelsets available.
There is a long list of innovative technologies found its way into the cycling world thanks to this wheelset such as a differentiated rim height, G3™ spoke pattern, the MoMag™ technology, oversized driveside flange, USB™ ceramic bearings, oversize aerodynamic aluminum spokes and RDB™ (Rim Dynamic Balance).
The modern Shamal includes all of the aforementioned technologies and represents years of solid research and development that culminates in the newest version of this prestigious line of wheels, the Campagnolo Shamal Ultra C17. Its new, wider profile meets the C17 standard and is perfect for use with the increasingly popular tire sizes. The new Shamal was studied specifically to increase the compatibility with 25 and 28 mm tires. This new rim/tire interface proves to be more aerodynamic when compared to the same size tires mated to a C15 rim.
The new C17 also allows for a more surefooted grip on the road in addition to increased comfort while increasing rigidity and thus reactivity at the same time thanks to its wider stance and optimized material usage. The Shamal Ultra C17 will continues to use a carbon fiber hub body with extra smooth USB™ bearings to make them as efficient as possible. The hubs for this newly designed wheel will continue to be differentiated between front and rear in order to optimize weight savings while considering structural and performance necessities that change with the individual roles of the two wheels. The 16 aerodynamic anodized aluminum spokes on the front wheel are laced radially while the 21 spokes of the rear wheel are grouped in the Mega-G3™ pattern, famous not only for its fantastic performance but also for its innovative design.
A new adjusting lock ring with microsetting has trickled down to this new C17 version from the Bora family, further highlighting the Shamal's claim and status as a top tier race wheel. The new advanced Shamal Ultra C17 wheels represent the same fantastic performance that has made them some of the go to aluminum race wheels for the better part of two decades while adding more versatility and performance.

One of history's most famous quotes is attributed to Marie-Antoinette, the young bride of French King Louis XVI. Supposedly, in 1789, when she was told that the French people were without bread, the queen who was likely far removed from the reality of food insecurity, responded, "Let them eat cake."
Whether an innocent or simply detached remark, it is said to have compounded resentment and ultimately hatred toward Marie-Antoinette and her life of privilege. The queen quickly symbolized a decadent monarchy fueling the revolution that would cause her to [literally] lose her head a few years later.
Unfortunately, food insecurity didn't end in the 18th Century. For nearly 45 years, our federal government, acting pursuant to the Older Americans Act, has provided funds for senior nutrition programs across the country. With Oklahoma's required match being only 15%, senior nutrition has proven to be a blessing to the health and well-being of older Oklahomans reducing hunger and food insecurity and promoting socialization.
Except for Social Security and Medicare, perhaps no federal program has yielded a more positive impact on senior citizens than senior nutrition. In addition to the congregant meals that are served at nutrition sites in nearly every community in Oklahoma, the program involves thousands of caring volunteers who daily deliver meals to shut-ins through the ADvantage program.
In addition to nutrition, those daily visits provide "well checks" on home-bound adults living alone and are instrumental in allowing thousands of Oklahomans to stay in their own homes and not move into nursing homes. In addition to the invaluable nutrition and human contact, federal reimbursement rates for homebound deliveries provide more than $1.50 per meal profit to senior nutrition sites defraying the cost of their continued operations.
Much has been said about the harm to education, roads, fire protection, law enforcement and medical care caused by the decisions of state leaders but cuts to ADvantage and senior nutrition programs leave local nutrition centers without funds to leverage federal dollars. Nutrition centers are at risk of closing if they are unable to find other sources of revenue.
This has been a growing problem over the past few years despite USDA statistics showing that already Oklahoma seniors are 16% more likely to be food insecure than the national average and Oklahoma's nearly one in five food insecure seniors ranks us as one of the top ten food insecure states according to the American Public Health Foundation.
When considering that nearly one in four of Oklahoma's children are also food insecure, the Oklahoma Food Bank says that Oklahoma consistently ranks among the top five states in the number of people who are hungry. It won't get any better until Oklahoma's leaders put Oklahoma's citizens, young and old, ahead of partisan politics.
Some historians believe that Marie-Antoinette did not suggest cake for the starving masses. Without a doubt history will show that in 2016 Oklahoma's leaders didn't even suggest crumbs.

Japan to launch intelligence-gathering satellite after delay
TOKYO, Feb. 6 (Xinhua) -- Japan has set Sunday as the new launch date for an H2A rocket carrying a government optical satellite for intelligence-gathering purpose, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. said Thursday.
The H2A rocket is scheduled to be launched Sunday morning from the Tanegashima Space Center in Kagoshima Prefecture, southwestern Japan.
The previous launch was set for Jan. 28, but was canceled due to a glitch during the countdown. A leak was discovered in the piping supplying the rocket with nitrogen gas for liftoff.
Mitsubishi Heavy attributed the leak to pipe corrosion and said it has completed necessary repairs and inspections.

Understanding Endometriosis: What You Need to Know
With 1 in 9 people with periods affected by endometriosis, chances are you know someone who has it. But do you understand it?
Endometriosis is a condition that affects 1 in 9 people with periods. Endometriosis occurs when tissue, which is similar to the lining of the womb, grows in other parts of the body. This tissue has an inflammatory response and causes problems such as pain and scarring.
Endometrial lesions are most commonly found in and around the pelvic area including the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, bowel, bladder and on the lining of the pelvic cavity. Less commonly, endometriosis has been found in other unusual parts in the body including the lungs, skin, diaphragm, liver and even the brain.
Some endo warriors have no symptoms at all, while others present with debilitating symptoms, curiously the extent of disease does not correlate to the severity of symptoms.
Sadly, there is no known cause or prevention for endometriosis. We do know there is a genetic element to endometriosis so you are 7-8 times more likely to get endometriosis if a family member has a history of endometriosis. The latest research shows that the average time to diagnosis has reduced from 7 - 12 years to an average of 6.5 years since 2013.
Endometriosis is often misdiagnosed as another condition such as IBS or that you have a low pain tolerance and it is just all in your head.
As a result, many people with Endo suffer in silence.
If you feel you have been misdiagnosed or not taken seriously it is important to get a second opinion and seek a review from an endometriosis excision specialist.
Education is power and can lead to early detection.
A combination of your symptoms and diagnostic findings can indicate the likelihood of endometriosis. The tests that are used to investigate include:
Pelvic examination
Laparoscopy - the gold standard however an invasive procedure
Western medicine
Allied & Complementary medicine
If you are experiencing painful periods and other adverse symptoms each month please reach out to your health practitioner for support. With the right supportive treatments and qualified team of practitioners endometriosis can be managed very well.

For the first time since her nude photos leaked to the Internet in August, Jennifer Lawrence spoke out very directly about the violation.
"It is not a scandal. It is a sex crime," the 24-year-old Oscar winner told Vanity Fair for the November issue. "Just the fact that somebody can be sexually exploited and violated, and the first thought that crosses somebody's mind is to make a profit from it. It's so beyond me. I just can't imagine being that detached from humanity. I can't imagine being that thoughtless and careless and so empty inside."
When the first wave of hacked iCloud pictures hit the Internet on August 31, Jennifer's representative called the situation is "a flagrant violation of privacy." Now, Jennifer said her initial reaction wavered between anger and wanting to apologize to those she disappointed.
"Every single thing that I tried to write made me cry or get angry," she said, explaining she realized she really didn't have anything to apologize for. "I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years. It was long distance, and either your boyfriend is going to look at porn or he's going to look at you."
Although most of her frustration is rightfully directed toward the hackers, Jennifer said the people who viewed the pictures and the tabloids that contributed to their proliferation are also to blame.
"Anybody who looked at those pictures, you're perpetuating a sexual offense. You should cower with shame," she said. "Even people who I know and love say, 'Oh, yeah, I looked at the pictures.' I don't want to get mad, but at the same time I'm thinking, I didn't tell you that you could look at my naked body."
It's been just five weeks since the first pictures emerged and more have since come about. However, Jennifer said she's determined to move on.
"I'm not crying about it anymore. I can't be angry anymore. I can't have my happiness rest on these people being caught, because they might not be," she said. "I need to just find my own peace."

"We are getting 19 calls, and the number of cruise guests keeps going up," said Line Tange, cruise manager in Fredericia. "We have 10 new ships from five cruise lines."
Maiden calls for 2019 include the Amadea, Arcadia, AIDAuara, and Seabourn Ovation, as well as the Marella Explorer, Deutschland, Europa and the Disney Magic.
The numbers are good, and up from last year, when the port saw eight calls and 12,000 guests.
"We have a dedicated cruise berth and bookings for 2021 are coming in now," Tange noted. "We are a new port and cruise lines are very interested."
Overall, her goal is to have 20 to 25 calls per year.
"There are so many other ports in Denmark," she continued. "But we are out there in the market and letting the cruise lines get to know us and building strong relationships is important."
The dedicated city-center cruise berth can take ships up to 370 meters in length with a depth down to 12 meters. There are no air draft restrictions and the large turning basin has no size restrictions, according to port documentation.
The fortress town is home to the Brave Soldier monument, a 15-minute walk from the cruise quay and the city's most popular guided tour.
UNESCO sites include the Royal Jelling, home to Viking monuments, and Christiansfeld, a church settlement founded in 1772.
Forty-five minutes from the cruise berth, guests can find Legoland, and 75 minutes away is Ribe, the oldest city in Denmark, with a history dating back to the Vikings and the year 710.

§ 30. Mr. A. J. BENNETTasked the Minister of Pensions how many pension awards, other than those for actual disablement, have now been made permanent; whether there are any awards of over eight years' standing still subject to revision; and whether finality of fixation can at least be reached in those cases?
§ Major TRYONI am not quite clear what the hon. Member means by the term "actual disablement," but I may inform him that permanent awards of pension have been made in approximately 33,500 cases of disease and 120,500 cases of wounds and injuries. I am not aware that there is any case of eight years' standing still on conditional pension, but if there be such it probably is because the man is progressively growing worse, and it would be contrary to his interest to make a final award. It is the practice to consider every case with a view to a final award not later than four years after the first award of pension, and only those which are found to be unsuitable for a final award are still subject to revision.
§ Captain Viscount CURZONWill the right hon. Gentleman give us any sort of idea as to what percentage the figures bear to the whole number of cases before him for review?
§ Major TRYONThe number of pensioners is something under 800,000. The hon. and gallant Member can work it out. It is our policy to push on with final awards, but some of the final awards are being set aside by the tribunal owing to men appealing against our giving final awards.

There's a lot we could potentially see from Square Enix E3 2021, from brand-new IP to new installments of classic RPGs and potentially everything in between.
Square Enix announced some of its E3 2021 plans already, including the debut of the Marvel's Avengers Wakanda content and a worldwide reveal that could be Final Fantasy Origin.
We won't have long to find out, though.
The Square Enix E3 2021 presentation goes live June 13 at 8:15 p.m. BST/3:15 p.m. EST.
Here's what we know is going to show up and what we think has a pretty good chance of making an appearance.
E3 2021 COUNTDOWN - June 13
There's not long to go before Square Enix's E3 Presentation 'Square Enix Presents' gets underway.
We already know you'll be able to see the World Premiere of a new game by Eidos Montreal, plus updates on BABYLON'S FALL, Life is Strange: True Colors and plenty more.
The show goes live on Sunday, June 13 at 12:15pm PDT / 8:15pm BST and you can watch the action right here, and on our YouTube and Twitch.
Can't see your timezones, then check out the below tweet:
Babylon's Fall
We know we'll (finally) get more Babylon's Fall information at E3 since Square Enix specifically highlighted it in their E3 announcement.
What's more, we could even see a Babylon's Fall beta or demo pop up sometime soon, based on some new code that recently appeared on Steam.
Marvel's Avengers Wakanda
Square Enix promised a first look at Marvel's Avengers Black Panther content, aka Marvel's Avengers Wakanda DLC.
It's billed as the game's biggest content update since release, and while we know a bit about the Black Panther DLC, there's still a lot left to learn.
Life Is Strange: True Colors
Life Is Strange: True Colors also features heavily in the Square Enix E3 2021 plans, which makes sense.
The game is set for release on September 10, but we've only seen one trailer and have just a smidgeon of information on the True Colors characters so far.
E3 will change that, since Square Enix said the True Colors showcase is a "deep dive" into the game.
Life Is Strange: Remastered Collection
The Life Is Strange showcase will feature a look at the Remastered Collection too, a polished version of Life Is Strange and Before the Storm.
New Eidos-Montreal Game
One of the new reveals Square Enix teased is something from Eidos-Montreal.
Before getting too excited about a new Deus Ex game, though, 2021 is Tomb Raider's 25th anniversary.
A new Tomb Raider game or collection might seem logical, but then again, maybe not. Bloomberg's Jason Schreier said we should expect to see Eidos' Guardians of the Galaxy game instead.
Final Fantasy 16
Square Enix made no mention of Final Fantasy 16 in its announcement, though it's been months since we last heard about the latest Final Fantasy game.
We'd be surprised if Naoki Yoshida's second Final Fantasy gets completely left in the cold.
Final Fantasy Origin
Popular rumor has it that Square Enix is working with Nioh developer Team Ninja on a new Final Fantasy game.
Reportedly dubbed Final Fantasy Origin, it's an action spin-off that takes place in the world of the original Final Fantasy.
While the initial rumor treated FF Origin as an E3 leak, Square Enix said absolutely nothing about Final Fantasy in its E3 plans.
It did promise updates and new game "announcements" in the plural, though, so a Final Fantasy Origin reveal is always possible.
People Can Fly isn't done with Outriders yet. It didn't feature in Square Enix's announcement, but we know more content updates are on the way at some point.
Forspoken was also curiously absent from Square Enix's E3 announcement, though we expect to see at least a new trailer for it.
Following Forspoken's initial reveal as Project Athia in 2020, we've only seen one brief new trailer and a motherf****n' dragon, as Square Enix described it.
Dragon Quest 12
Square Enix recently revealed the logo and teaser for Dragon Quest 12: The Flames of Fate during the series' 35th anniversary special.
That was toward the end of May, and while new footage so soon seems unlikely, it's possible we'll at least get a reminder about it.
The anniversary special was aimed at series fans instead of a mainstream audience, after all.
Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D
What seems more likely is a new trailer or possibly even a release date for Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D, also announced during the anniversary special.
Square Enix debuted it with a full trailer, so presumably, it's closer to release than Dragon Quest 12.
For more articles like this, take a look at our E3 2021, Final Fantasy, Marvel's Avengers, Dragon Quest, Outriders, Babylon's Fall, Life is Strange, and Gaming News pages.

SpaceX has been in the information for their failed Starship rocket launch on April 20, but a couple of times previously, they were being in the information for anything substantially different. Though astrophotographers have been finding images of SpaceX launches for a long time, photographer Todd Salat captured a thing seriously particular in excess of the Donnelly Dome in Alaska. Also acknowledged as the Aurora Hunter, Salat was out using photographs of the aurora on April 15 when a mysterious spiral appeared.
"I was utterly shocked and mystified when I 1st noticed a distant bright mild coming toward me from the northern horizon," he shared. "At initial, I assumed it was a jet airliner flying by way of some clouds. Then it took on the spiral form and grew major fast!"
Salat could not feel what he was seeing and was still left sensation a bit confused about what experienced taken place. Thankfully, he was able to act speedily and capture the party so that he could share it with the entire world.
"I was capturing frantically with two digicam/tripod established-ups being aware of that this was a unique celebration, and in about seven minutes, the 'apparition' swept by and disappeared. It was spellbinding! For the earlier two nights, I experienced been photographing auroras in excess of this dome (Donnelly Dome) and hoping to catch some thing special. I bought my would like!"
At the time Salat bought residence, he began doing some study and that is when he recognized that what he'd observed in the sky wasn't natural. Just a few hrs previously, in California, a SpaceX Transporter-7 mission launched on the Falcon 9 from the Vandenberg Room Force Base. The spiral is actually frozen rocket engine exhaust. When it catches the sunlight at higher altitudes, it glows, and a spiral formation is created.
Salat was not the only just one to get a glimpse at the scarce occasion. The University of Alaska's Poker Flat Research Selection has an all-night time digicam that also recorded the celebration. At all over 09:50 UT mark, the spiral seems and then mysteriously vanishes just as speedily as it arrived into check out.
Transporter is SpaceX's rideshare mission, and this was its seventh start. According to SpaceNews, it was carrying 51 satellites. However the full payload record wasn't out there, some of the satellites integrated had been for greenhouse gas checking, as properly as climate checking. This was the initially time that a Transporter mission had introduced from California, with the former six missions having off from Florida's Cape Canaveral.
The spiral brought on by a SpaceX rocket was also caught on movie. It's noticeable in the aurora at all over 09:50 UT.

John Fogerty is a true American treasure. As the leader of Creedence Clearwater Revival, (CCR) Fogerty forged a distinctive, groundbreaking sound all his own, equal parts blues, country, pop, rockabilly, R&B, swamp boogie and Southern fried rock 'n' roll, all united by his uniquely evocative lyrical perspective. Fogerty is a GRAMMY winner and has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as well as the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He is the only musician to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame for his song, "Centerfield," a staple at baseball stadiums across the country. Among Fogerty's many hit songs, both as a solo artist and as leader of CCR, highlights include "Centerfield," "Proud Mary," "Susie Q," "Fortunate Son," "Born on the Bayou," "Bad Moon Rising" and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain," among many others. In 2023, Fogerty acquired a majority interest of the worldwide publishing rights to his historic song catalog from Concord. The compositions have been both a decades-long dream and a personal mission for him.
"As of this January, I own my own songs again. This is something I thought would never be a possibility. After 50 years, I am finally reunited with my songs. I also have a say in where and how my songs are used. Up until this year, that is something I have never been able to do. I am looking forward to touring and celebrating this year! I want to thank Concord for helping to make all of this happen. And I am excited for new ideas and a renewed interest in my music … like a revival," John Fogerty said. In early March 2023, Fogerty joined Spotify's "Billions Club" with Creedence Clearwater Revival's enduring recording of his song, "Have You Ever Seen the Rain," commemorating an outstanding achievement of more than one billion streams on the platform, a feat that has been reached by less than 400 songs. His iconic song "Fortunate Son," also recorded by CCR, is also on track to hit one billion streams later this year.

At the end of the 1970s, Gary Numan found himself to be one of the world's biggest-selling recording artists, "Are 'Friends' Electric?" and "Cars" were huge hits, no one had heard, or seen, anyone like Gary Numan. The Asperger's syndrome that helped forge Numan's tunnel-like ambition, informing his music and image, also brought problems. At a time when the public knew little about the condition, the press labeled him a freak, one paper suggested his parents should have been doctored for giving birth to him. Depression, anxiety, near bankruptcy and a long period in the wilderness followed. Then Numan fell in love with his biggest fan, Gemma, who helped him rediscover his passion for music. Gary Numan, the godfather of electronic music is on a one-way trip to crack America, returning to the studio for the first time in nearly a decade. Android in La La Land is a true celebration of a music-making pioneer and the love story that helped him turn his life around.

A List Of Lists I Want To Make
By Ben Conner
Lists are my favorite. When I need to remind myself how organized I can be, I write a list. Even if I just have a single thought, I sometimes number it so that it feels like the beginning of a list. I've never been one for carrying out plans, but thinking about carrying out plans, and then putting those plans in sequence, can really turn me on. I'm sure I'm not alone here.
Every so often, though, I find myself compelled to make a list, but without necessary list-making tools (pad and pen). For these moments, I make a mental note of the list, to be written at a later point. Usually, I only have a couple entries for the list at the point of conception. Now that I've accumulated a number of these mental notes, it's time to organize them in a list of the lists I want to make, which I present to you here.
1. I need a list of productive things to do before I decide to get high and watch a movie. I'll call this list 'Before you get high and watch a movie, Ben, try out some of these SWEET activities!' The list will contain a slew of buzz-killing directives like "Fill out another job application for the co-op or movie theater," "Sort the clothes on your bedroom floor into 'Clean' and 'Dirty' piles," "Memorize a poem to impress the ladies," "Do some push-ups or sit-ups. If you're not feeling that, maybe just get some solid stretching in."
2. I'd like a 'Bits of overheard conversation' list. "'Dude I told you to not say anything to her about my recipe.' 'What? It's a great recipe!' 'IT'S FOR A COMPETITION!'"
3. I want to make a list of Interesting People I see who I want to incorporate into a screenplay or short story. Some of these people who pique my interest are:
The mom who takes her son to play super-average thrash metal compositions at open mics and then misguidedly gives him suggestions on how to get the crowd more into it; Randy and JoAnn, two rich, divorced septuagenarians who make eyes at each other every day at the casino and flirt by whispering secretive drink orders for each other to Winter, the waitress: A shot of Hennessey and Ginger Ale with lemon, respectively; Frank the homeless guy who watches psychedelia on YouTube at the library and wears his name and the day's date on a piece of cardboard taped above his glasses because he's scared of having his picture taken and the photographer being unable to identify him.
4. Rad names to have on lock for future bongs/ hard drives/ children/ what-have-you. Solomon; Orson; Amory Blaine; Lolita; Sally the Destructor; Kim Novak; Scout; Staff Sergeant Max Fightmaster; Buster, etc.
5. Sweet catch phrases to say after I do something bad ass. "Back o' the line!" "He's makin' a meal of it!" "And that's that!" "Don't blink next time." "Tell your friends."
6. I've never made a 'Bucket List.' No list of lists is complete without this Lord of Lists, the King of Columns, Emperor of Enumerations, if you will. So let's take a stab at it. Some of the things I might like to do before I die include producing a grandly god-awful hip-hop album, which will feature the musical scrabbling of myself, along with each of my intensely amateur musician/rapper-friends; being the dude with the perma-hoarse throat who courageously leads the chants at Sounders games for an entire soccer season; directing Choose Your Own Adventure: The Movie ©; orchestrating a huge street art project; S&M; something illegal with a nun (or otherwise professionally repressed person); knit a scarf; hire a quartet for a day to play a live soundtrack for my life.
7. Clever things to say that I thought of way too late. "In English they call that pedophilia," "Sex doesn't have to be an exclusive activity!" "From here?" "Well that depends how many you want."
There you have it. I think we have the beginnings of a solid list of lists to make in the future, and a tribute to the joy, wonder, and structure that lists provide to our everyday lives.
And that's that!

Rian Johnson's Latest Knives Out Mystery Is When His Star Wars Trilogy Will Get Made
"Star Wars" is in a strange identity crisis at the moment. Ever since Rian Johnsons's 2017 bold middle entry to the Skywalker Saga, "The Last Jedi," there's been an internal tension to every significant live-action "Star Wars" project since, the creatives behind the camera attempting to tread the fine line between paying tribute to the past and pushing the world beyond its nostalgic characters to greatly mixed results.
Though it was a critical and financial success, "The Last Jedi" divided the entire fandom, and that's exactly what makes it such a great film. Johnson used the imagery and cultural meaning of "Star Wars" to tell a story about hubris, myth-making, and forging a path for future generations. Right before the film opened in theaters, a trilogy of "Star Wars" films helmed by Johnson was announced, an exciting promise of a brand new, original era for the franchise.
It has now been five years since the trilogy of films have been announced, and judging from the radio silence from Lucasfilm at press events, as well as the passive-aggressive retconning of Johnson's film in "The Rise of Skywalker," we wouldn't blame anyone for assuming these films have been quietly shelved.
Luckily, Johnson has as much enthusiasm for this trilogy project as his fans do, and he has not given up. Recently, Johnson was featured on Variety's Awards Circuit Podcast for his latest film, "Glass Onion," a sequel to 2019's crowd-pleasing whodunnit "Knives Out." When asked about the status of his "Star Wars" trilogy, he answered that it is "only a matter of scheduling."
Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson both have packed schedules
Tell us about it. Both Johnson and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy are on totally different production schedules at the moment. For those not in the loop, Johnson landed a lucrative deal back in 2021 with Netflix to produce two sequels to "Knives Out," which was previously a Lionsgate feature. "Glass Onion" is the first of those two sequels revisiting our gentleman sleuth, Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig), for another murder-mystery. Depending on the success of these two films, there could be even more Agatha Christie-style adventures down the line. Both Daniel Craig and Rian Johnson are game to keep working together.
Then there's Kennedy's new roadmap for the future of "Star Wars" and Lucasfilm as a whole. The Lucasfilm president is currently developing a wide array of TV series expanding our galaxy far, far away into new territory. While there are a few movies greenlit for the near future, including an original film directed by Taika Waititi and a delayed "Rogue Squadron" film by Patty Jenkins, we have heard very few updates about these films, if they are still happening at all.
While "Star Wars" slips into a Disney+ exclusive series niche for the next few years, "Indiana Jones" is set to return with a James Mangold-directed sequel in 2023. James Cameron's "Avatar" sequels are also taking over the usual December release slot "Star Wars" usually occupies, with "Avatar: The Way of the Water" set to release this year on December 16th, 2022.
Rian Johnson said it best: 'God I hope so'
"I have talked to Kathy [Kathleen Kennedy] about it and we're still talking about it," Johnson explained. "I had such an amazing experience making 'The Last Jedi.' It's entirely a matter of scheduling. For me, putting this ['Glass Onion'] out and making the next one of these ... the answer is I don't know."
If Kennedy and Johnson are still planning to produce a whole "Star Wars" trilogy together, realistically, it's just something we're not going to see in theaters for quite a while. These two creatives are working on an extraordinary amount of near-future projects, but in the meantime, it's nice to know they're still talking about it.
Variety pushed for a little bit more insight from Johnson, directly asking if we will "definitely" see Rian Johnson's "Star Wars" trilogy down the line. His hopeful sentiment echoes our own: "God I hope so."

During a stock market melt-up, which is a sudden and significant surge in the value of stocks, investors should remain disciplined, diversified and patient. A comprehensive strategy should be in place to help navigate these turbulent times, and this could include taking profits strategically, maintaining a diversified portfolio, being ready for market corrections, and staying invested for the long term.
Now, let's switch gears and talk about this in our Will Smith style.
Aight, let's dive right into this. Picture a stock market melt-up like a block party that's just kickin' off. Everything's grooving, folks are feeling good, and the stocks are surging up like fireworks. It's a blast, sure, but you gotta stay on your toes. It ain't all just fun and games, you feel me?
First off, remember that old saying about not putting all your eggs in one basket? Well, that holds true here too. Don't go all in on the hottest stocks just because they're lighting up the sky. Keep your portfolio diverse – stocks, bonds, a little bit of this, a little bit of that. That way, if one part of your portfolio takes a hit, you've got other areas to cushion the fall.
Second, know when to step off the dance floor. If a stock's riding high and you're sitting on some nice profits, it might be time to cash out and take those gains. But don't go crazy, now. You don't need to sell everything at once. Just take a little off the top, stay nimble, keep your options open.
Third, stay cool when things get hot. Melt-ups can be followed by melt-downs – what goes up must come down, right? So be ready for a potential correction. If you've kept your portfolio diversified and you're taking profits strategically, you're already on the right track.
And last but not least, stick with it for the long haul. Don't get caught up in the day-to-day drama of the market. It's like a rollercoaster, full of ups and downs. But if you can hold on tight and ride it out, history shows us that the long-term trend of the market is upward.
So, there you have it. The stock market might be on fire with a melt-up, but with a cool head and the right moves, you can navigate through it like you're cruising down Rodeo Drive in a brand new convertible. Just remember – stay disciplined, stay diversified, and stay the course.

90° days are winding down
KMSP - While the calendar reads the middle of September, it certainly hasn't felt like it. Temperatures have been consistently in the 80s for the last few days, with a 91° thrown in as well. That's the first time we have seen the 90s in the metro in nearly 2 months.
We couldn't even get past 89° in our normally very warm month of August. But this year, we finally had a cool August… coldest in fact since 2004.
Overall though, our summer was officially above average by roughly a degree when combining the months of June, July, & August. T
hat being said, the overall number of times we experienced 90° was actually just shy of average with 11, versus the 14 we see in a typical year. But as the chart above shows, the number of these days we see in any given year varies wildly. This gives us the overall 30 year average of 14.
While many have enjoyed the recent heat, don't expect it to last as temperatures usually begin their tumbling phase in the next couple of weeks with record highs dropping out of the 90s and into the 80s.
Think of it this way, we typically lose the ability to reach a benchmark temperatures every month. So, when we get to October, hitting 90° is virtually impossible. When we enter November, we're done with the 80s. When get to December, the 70's are over. By January, even the 60s can't be reached. See… it's just stair steps. Now obviously the average temperatures are far lower than these, but just gives you an idea of what temperatures are even unrealistically reachable each month of fall and into winter.

British Council issued the following statement on Thursday:
The BBC World Service and the British Council are coming together to run a program in Lebanon in which Lebanese citizens will be virtually trained in 'Deep Listening'.
This is an established technique for finding common ground with opponents and an approach to difficult conversations that ensures both parties feel fully heard.
Lebanon is a country with deep-seated divisions and challenges; after the participants are trained they will be matched together to have conversations with those who hold opposing views to their own. The program isn't about finding agreement, but about individuals and communities beginning a journey of understanding.
Research has evidenced the enormous power of being heard. When we feel recognized and understood, we can lower our defenses, reduce extreme views and be open to other perspectives. When we recognize the humanity across the table, we can start to have a vested interest in the health and welfare of those who are different and recognize what we have in common.
This project will build upon the British Council's Young Mediterranean Voices and Active Citizens Programs as well as the BBC's Crossing Divides work. The British Council will source a set of Lebanese citizens from diverse backgrounds and/or with different beliefs about Lebanon and how to solve its challenges. This will include graduates from the British Council's Programs, as well as BBC News Arabic audiences.
Over a period of two weeks, participants will be trained in the practice of deep listening. The course content will be delivered by BBC Crossing Divides' Emily Kasriel and will be run in collaboration with British Council expertise and facilitation.
Prior to the training, participants will have completed a brief questionnaire asking for their views on a range of global, regional and Lebanese-specific topics. During the training, there will be opportunities for small groups of 3 or 4 participants to go into breakout rooms. Each participant in their groups will take up the role of 'speaker, 'listener' or 'observer' on a rotating cycle basis, allowing them to practice their listening skills from different perspectives.

China's initiatives bring concrete benefits to the world
By Ezzat Saad | China Daily | Updated: 2022-10-13 07:48
It is only natural that China's rise as the second-largest economy and the world's leading trading power has prompted both developed and developing countries to deepen economic cooperation and trade exchanges with China and work with it to address many international issues.
It is also natural that China's influence in fields such as global economic governance, nuclear non-proliferation, and climate change mitigation will increase, given its initiatives including the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, the Belt and Road Initiative, the Global Development Initiative and the Global Security Initiative.
Due to these developments, the United States cannot accept China's rise. The US even sees China as an adversary and a challenge to its global dominance.
The US' rivalry with China has created a major dilemma for other countries. While China does not seek to impose its development model or system of governance on other countries, the US exerts huge pressure on other countries to reduce cooperation or stop cooperating with China, especially in fields which Washington believes are particularly sensitive such as advanced technology, digitalization, military cooperation and artificial intelligence.
The US questions China's development cooperation with and aid to countries in need, claiming Beijing only safeguards its own interests and has been pushing other countries into a "debt trap".
The fact is that economic, financial, infrastructure development and capacity-building cooperation, along with investment cooperation, are important components of the platforms established by China as frameworks for cooperation with various regional forums and programs such as the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, the China-Arab Cooperation Forum and the China-Community of Latin American and Caribbean States Cooperation Plan.
In fact, the G7 has been trying to replicate the Belt and Road Initiative but without much success. For example, at the G7 Summit in Cornwall, the United Kingdom, in June 2021, US President Joe Biden unveiled the "Build Back Better World" (B3W) initiative, claiming it would help "meet the enormous infrastructure needs of low- and middle-income countries" with particular focus on addressing climate, digital infrastructure, gender equality and health issues.
At this year's G7 Summit in Bavaria, Germany, in June, the launch of another initiative, "Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment", was in reality the re-launch of the B3W plan, although the US pledged to provide $200 billion of the required $600 billion. Most experts, including Western experts, say the aim of such G7 initiatives is to counter China's initiatives without suggesting alternative ways of promoting global economic development.
In this context, the financing that Western governments have promised to provide for such initiatives will further complicate their economic situation which has already received serious blows due to rising inflation and increasing food and energy prices. Plus, unlike Chinese enterprises, private sector companies in G7 countries may be reluctant to invest in "unstable" developing countries. Needless to say, China sees the issue differently because it believes the solution to all the problems facing developing countries in Africa, as well as Latin America and Asia, lies in sustainable development.
That's why China has been using the Belt and Road Initiative as a platform to develop and/or improve regional infrastructure and improve connectivity, in a bid to maintain global peace and development. China knows that investing in infrastructure is investing in a country's economic development. As such, China is working to help build a community with a shared future for mankind based on broad consultation, joint contribution and benefit-sharing.
In this regard, Western initiatives are not just too late but also have little to offer.
Contrary to the US' approach, China views its economic rise as a strategic opportunity to improve the world order by making it equitable and fairer, and to strengthen global governance.
Undoubtedly, the establishment of new global financial institutions such as the AIIB and the BRICS New Development Bank has had a huge impact on global economic governance and key decision-making, because such institutions, unlike the Bretton Woods institutions, are built based on equality of all partner countries regardless of their economic strength.
Moreover, traditional international development banks don't have the capacity to meet the growing demand for investment in infrastructure projects, especially from developing countries, which experts say could be anywhere between $1 trillion and $2.3 trillion.
More important, the New Development Bank has opened its doors to countries that are not members of BRICS, with four countries (Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Uruguay and Bangladesh) currently serving as members of the NDB.
Furthermore, the Global Development Initiative proposal — by President Xi Jinping on Sept 21, 2021 — comes at a time when the world is facing multiple crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic and global economic slowdown, which have dealt serious economic blows to developing countries and emerging markets, especially in Africa.
The GDI synergizes with other initiatives such as the African Union's Agenda 2063, the Forum of China-Africa Cooperation and the Belt and Road Initiative, all of which uphold multilateralism. This makes the GDI a call to the international community to refocus its efforts to realize the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and to ensure that global development is inclusive and eco-friendly.
