☆ A rare spaceship-shaped Domino's delivery vehicle is going up for auction—the last one sold for nearly $45,000
  + stars: | 2023-10-20 | by ( Nicolas Vega | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
A rare experimental Domino's delivery vehicle from the 1980s will soon be on the auction block. The vehicle, which has been restored, boasts an "aerodynamic body with a purported 0.15 drag coefficient," according to the listing. The average car, for comparison, usually has a drag coefficient between 0.3 and 0.4. The Tritan once included a warming oven in the back to keep pizzas warm during delivery. The arch on the back of the vehicle acts as a sail, Mecum says, which helps it get up to 80 miles to the gallon.

☆ This 1980s Domino's delivery car looks like a spaceship and you could buy it

CNN —The 1985 Domino’s Pizza delivery car looks more like it was designed to shoot down invading alien spacecraft than to bring you a hot delicious pepperoni pie. But back in the ’80s, Domino’s founder Tom Monaghan ordered 10 Tritan A2 cars and customized them with warming ovens in the back to deliver pizzas around Ann Arbor, Michigan, where Domino’s is headquartered. The Tritan A2 was designed by engineers James Amick and his son Douglas. Mecum Auctions did not provide a value estimate for the Tritan A2. Domino’s did not respond to questions about the Tritan A2.

☆ Inside the 'Justice Circle': Secret invite list reveals how VIP donors bought access to Elena Kagan and Brett Kavanaugh

Corporate execs and lawyers with business before the Supreme Court mingled with some of the country's most influential jurists. Revelations about Thomas and Crow's relationship have prompted calls in Congress for the Supreme Court to adopt its first-ever binding code of ethics. But as a Supreme Court justice, Kagan is not currently bound by those rules. The Aspen Institute isn't alone in dangling Supreme Court access to lure deep-pocketed donors. Financial support for a public mission flowed one way, and scheduled private time with Supreme Court justices was dispensed in return.

☆ How Anti-Abortion Activists Bought Access to the Supreme Court
  + stars: | 2023-01-07 | by ( Katherine Long | Jack Newsham | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +29 min
In exchange for as little as a few thousand dollars in contributions to the nonprofit, these people received easy access to events where Supreme Court justices would be. Supreme Court Historical society trustee Jay Sekulow, center, represented President Trump during the latter's impeachment trial in 2020. Anti-abortion advocates cheer in front of the Supreme Court after the decision in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores was announced in 2014. Alito did not respond to a request for comment on his involvement in the Supreme Court Historical Society. Supreme Court justices, though, aren't even required to stay within those weak guardrails because no code of ethics governs justices' behavior.
