George Soros is striking again. The progressive billionaire — who has poured a fortune into electing prosecutors who have destroyed criminal justice systems across the United States — is turning his attention to Texas, according to a Fox News report. And the first Mexican-born woman to serve in the U.S. House has a warning about why Soros is doing it. With President Joe Biden’s disastrous open-border policy failure to win over Hispanic voters — a failure reflected in Biden’s polling numbers — Soros is putting new millions into a state Democrats are trying to flip to their control. “They’re seeing…

Although the Houston Astros are regarded as one of the top teams in MLB, the team’s future prospects are being damaged by old-fashioned dishonesty. Recently, the 2022 World Series champs were named as one of the clubs most affected by age fraud. Per league rules, the minimum age a player needs to be to seek an MLB contract is 16. However, despite this rule being in place for some times, teams regularly commit to 12, 13 or 14-year olds who claim to be sixteen, without providing any sort of proof. Recently, Jeff Passan and Evan Drellich co-authored a piece…
The Browser Company launched the Arc’s first iPhone companion app last year, allowing users to save links for consumption on the desktop application later. The firm has now released a new mobile app, called Arc Search, that aims to focus on the search experience. The marquee AI-powered feature of the app, “Browse for me,” returns a neatly built webpage with information about the search query. The feature, powered by models from OpenAI and others, reads at least six web pages and builds a new page with different sections. For instance, when I searched “How to make a perfectly poached…
Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published February 8, 2017. In 2002, researchers discovered a cancer-causing and potentially neurotoxic chemical called acrylamide is created when carbohydrate-rich foods are cooked at high temperatures, whether baked, fried, roasted, grilled or toasted. Acrylamide is the byproduct of a chemical reaction between sugars and the amino acid asparagine, which occurs at high temperatures. While the chemical can form in many foods cooked or processed at temperatures above 250 degrees F (120 degrees C), carbohydrate-rich foods are by far the most vulnerable. As a general rule, acrylamide forms when plant-based foods…
The lander has begun sending photos, including that of a nearby rock nicknamed “toy poodle”.
The Hong Kong order may matter little in the mainland, where most of the property giant’s assets are held.
Arc Search browses the web for you, and then builds you the webpage you wanted. That’s the idea, anyway. | Image: The Browser Company / David Pierce A few minutes ago, I opened the new Arc Search app and typed, “What happened in the Chiefs game.” That game, the AFC Championship, had just wrapped up. Normally, I’d Google it, click on a few links, and read about the game that way. But in Arc Search, I typed the query and tapped the “Browse for me” button instead. Arc Search, the new iOS app from The Browser Company, which has been…
Jan. 24, 2024 – If old bottles of prescription medicines and over-the-counter pain relievers are gathering dust behind your bathroom mirror, you’re not alone. But it’s important to take stock of what medications you have, what you can get rid of, and figure out how to store and discard your pills with care. Let’s start with the basics: Despite its name, you shouldn’t keep your pills in the bathroom medicine cabinet. There are two major reasons why, experts say. The first is that medicine cabinets are usually in bathrooms. That comes with a lot of humidity and high temperatures. According…
DEVELOPING STORYDEVELOPING STORY, Hong Kong court orders developer to wind up after finding company has no viable restructuring plan. China’s troubled real-estate giant the Evergrande Group has been ordered to liquidate, a move likely to deal a new blow to confidence in the world’s second-largest economy. A Hong Kong court made the ruling on Monday after the company failed to convince a judge it had a workable plan to restructure some $300bn in debts. “It would be a situation where the court says enough is enough,” Judge Linda Chan said. “I consider that it is appropriate for the court to…
The jig is up, as the bad guys used to say in the movies.When Rachel Maddow told her MSNBC audience on the night of the Iowa Republican caucuses that she would not be showing the victory speech by decisive winner Donald Trump, I started writing this column in my head.What arrogance, I thought. Whether MSNBC likes Trump or not, if they claim to be journalists, they can’t refuse to air obviously newsworthy events merely because it makes them unhappy. That’s not how actual journalists even think. But of course, that’s exactly what they have been doing for two decades, and…

In True Detective: Night Country, the rift is growing between Chief Liz Danvers (Jodie Foster) and her stepdaughter Leah (Isabella Star LaBlanc). In episode 1, the pair argued over a video the teen made with her girlfriend. Then, episode 2 brought an explosive argument over a traditional chin tattoo, which brought Kayla Prior (Anna Lambe) and her grandmother (Doreen Nutaaq Simmonds) into the fray. In the third episode, Danvers pushes this fight further, forcing Leah to wipe the temporary tattoo off her chin. More than a battle between mother and child or different generations, this is a white woman…
