CNN —Rebel Wilson is hoping to help young people feel empowered when it comes to sex and intimacy by revealing that she lost her virginity at the age of 35. “You obviously don’t have to wait until you’re in your thirties like me, but you shouldn’t feel pressure as a young person,” she said. Describing herself as a “late bloomer,” Wilson told the magazine that she would fib to her friends that she “did it just to get it over with” while in her 20s, or simply leave the room when the topic would come up. Had she been born 20 years later, she said, “I probably would’ve explored my sexuality more. In February 2023, Wilson became engaged to clothing designer Ramona Agruma at Disneyland.

☆ ‘Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,’ Almost

Did you know that at some point in the ’90s there were two separate, very different Sonic the Hedgehog TV series running simultaneously? “And the same guy played Sonic in both shows,” Scott Pilgrim, the doofy 23-year-old layabout of “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,” shares, unprompted, to his love interest, Ramona Flowers. The same guy playing two different versions of the same guy? It’s almost like how the same guy (Michael Cera) has now played two different versions of this same guy (Scott Pilgrim) — first in Edgar Wright’s damn-near-perfect 2010 film, “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World,” and now in this underwhelming Netflix anime adaptation, both based on Bryan Lee O’Malley’s beloved graphic novel series. “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off” isn’t a reboot or a sequel; it begins almost identically to the film but takes a sharp turn at the end of the first episode that sets it up as essentially an alternate-reality scenario.

☆ U.S. political violence driven by new breed of ‘grab-bag’ extremists

The incidents involve violence emanating from across the political spectrum, including dozens of cases of substantial property damage by leftists at political demonstrations. Steven Cheung, a spokesman for Trump, didn’t respond to questions from Reuters about the former president’s remarks and the impact of his rhetoric. But those who study extremism say psychiatric problems alone rarely induce political violence. “How could I take care of a brother in arms if I couldn’t even take care of myself?” Aldrich told the court. In the summer of 2022, Aldrich told the group he wanted to build a website to “promote freedom of speech,” Arroyo said.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A new batch of Rhodes scholars from the United States has been selected to study at the University of Oxford in a screening process that was conducted in person for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the globe in 2020. The scholars, who are among students selected from more than 70 countries, are due to pursue graduate degrees ranging from social sciences and humanities to biological and physical sciences. The U.S. scholars were selected by 16 independent district committees from a pool of more than 2,500 applicants. The sponsorships were created in 1902 by the will of Cecil Rhodes, a founder of the diamond mining and manufacturing company De Beers. The inaugural class entered Oxford in 1903 and the first U.S. Rhodes scholars arrived the next year, according to the website of the trust’s American secretary.

Dozens of people left Gaza and entered Egypt today, the first such exits since the start of the war between Hamas and Israel. They included some people with foreign or dual nationalities as well as seriously injured Palestinians and their families. Ramona Okumura, a Seattle resident who is a volunteer for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, confirmed in a text message that she was able to cross into Egypt from Gaza at the Rafah border crossing. The crossings came after a deal was negotiated last night among Israel, Egypt, Hamas, the U.S. and Qatar. The 500 to 600 American citizens in Gaza were not among today’s evacuees, other than those working for aid groups, but they were scheduled to follow in batches beginning tomorrow.

The consumer group had already reported complaints of Postbank customers not having access to their funds for weeks and direct debits getting rejected, jeopardising their credit scores.

Rite Aid filed plans to close 154 stores on Monday as part of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Rite Aid is the smallest of the three major drugstore chains, well behind CVS and Walgreens. Rite Aid was expected to close stores as part of its bankruptcy. Rite Aid told Insider that it considers a variety of factors when deciding to close a store, "including business strategy, lease and rent considerations, local business conditions and viability, and store performance." "We will also strive to transfer associates to other Rite Aid locations where possible," the company said.

WAKE FOREST, N.C. (AP) — The endangered red wolf can survive in the wild, but only with “significant additional management intervention,” according to a long-awaited population viability analysis released Friday. It calls for spending nearly $328 million over the next 50 years to get the red wolf off the endangered species list. The red wolf once roamed from central Texas to southern Iowa and as far east as Long Island, New York. “We have not yet identified locations for establishing new Red Wolf populations,” the report said. But the viability study cautioned that such releases be done very carefully, so as not to reduce the genetic diversity within the captive-bred population.

According to specialists at Bonhams Skinner auction house, the seller unknowingly purchased the work at a Savers thrift store in Manchester, New Hampshire, while searching for frames to reuse. The Wyeth painting had been stashed against a wall along with mostly damaged posters and prints, according to the auction house. Bonhams Skinner auction house expects the painting to fetch between $150,000 and $250,000 at September's auction.

☆ A top-1% fund manager over the past 5 years shares his strategy for finding mispriced assets to earn income with less volatility — and the 5 top places he's investing now
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-25 | by ( James Faris | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +7 min

The composition of the fund is weighted toward whichever asset classes are improperly priced by the market at a given time. An equally compelling aspect of the Fidelity Multi-Asset Income Fund is its ability to protect against losses and hedge against volatility. This year, convertible bonds have rebounded dramatically and are the best-performing class within fixed income, Kramer said.
