NEW YORK (AP) — It's a little late for John Leventhal to be considered a hot young thing in music. The thought of doing a solo record sort of creeped into my consciousness and, when the pandemic hit, I really couldn't avoid it. AP: How do you think a first John Leventhal album would have sounded if you made it 50 years ago? I don't think I would have made a good record 40 years ago because it wouldn't have been tempered by what I've learned. It felt more like creating a product, like it was someone in the record industry's “good idea.” And it is a good idea.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley pushed across ice-cold Iowa Saturday to find voters open to an alternative to former President Donald Trump with just two days before the state's caucuses open the Republican primary calendar. DeSantis in particular is under great pressure in Iowa given his campaign's heavy bet on a strong finish in the caucuses. Courtney Raines, a special education teacher, came to hear Haley on Saturday morning and said she would try to see DeSantis later in the day. Carroll Hinchion, a 30-year-old independent, is considering caucusing with Republicans as well and came to hear DeSantis in Council Bluffs. “The Republican caucus that’s going to happen on Monday night is going to send a shockwave.

☆ An Australian 'drone killer' air defense system could make it much cheaper for Ukraine to shoot Russian drones out of the sky
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-02 | by ( Mia Jankowicz | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

At around $1,000 a shot, it is meant to make shooting down Russian drones vastly cheaper. AdvertisementAdvertisementAn Australian defense company has developed a new weapon dubbed the "drone killer" that could help Ukraine face Russia's suicide drone barrages at a low cost. The weapon can be mounted on a truck and operated with a joystick and a screen, Australia's ABC News reported. The US-supplied NASAM missile system, sent to Ukraine last winter, costs around $500,000 to fire. According to ABC, the cost of shooting down a drone with it is estimated to be between $100 and $1,000.

A nut company called Dee's Nuts is suing YouTuber MrBeast's candy brand Feastables. When Brian Ditore founded flavored peanut company Dee's Nuts more than a decade ago, he hoped to pay homage to his grandmother, Adeline D'amore, court documents say. On August 25, Dee's Nuts filed a lawsuit against MrBeast's Feastables, accusing the brand of trademark infringement by naming one of its chocolate flavors "Deez Nuts." Actual results when searching "dees nuts" show Dee's Nuts products. Screenshot via Walmart.comAn attorney and spokesperson for Dee's Nuts did not respond to a request for comment sent during the weekend.

☆ Dunkin' is giving away free iced coffee this week—here’s how to order
▼ + stars: | 2023-03-01 | by ( Nicolas Vega | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

If you've got a smartphone, you can get a free coffee from Dunkin'. The donut slinger announced on Twitter that it is giving away one free coffee of any size this week. Though Dunkin's tweet only mentions iced coffee, the fine print of the offer states that the chain's hot coffee is also eligible, though the coupon cannot be used on cold brew. Dunkin' made a splash late last year when it reworked the way that its customer loyalty program works. The change prompted customers to complain on social media, with some saying that they were uninstalling the coffee chain's app from their phones, CNBC Make It reported at the time.

Having hosted the game for almost six centuries, “the home of golf” – as Scotland is known – was recognized as the World’s Best Golf Destination for the very first time at the ninth edition of the annual World Golf Awards in Abu Dhabi this week. Despite the dominance of its legendary St. Andrews Old Course in the World’s Best Golf Course category – with five successive wins after the award’s inception – Scotland had never been recognized as the sport’s best destination. Ross Kinnaird / Getty Images Tom Holland: Part-time web-slinger, full-time golf swinger -- the "Spider-Man" lead is a self-confessed golf addict. Richard Heathcote/R&A/Getty Images“Scottish golf tourism is thriving, and Scotland is a bucket list destination for most golfers around the World,” added Dermot Synnott, Director of Global Partnership for the World Golf Awards. Meanwhile, JA The Resort Golf Course in Dubai won Best Nine Hole Golf Course and Costa Navarino in Greece was recognized as the World’s Best Emerging Golf Destination.
