And they were everywhere, although, naturally, New York City was a magnet, as it has always been for L.G.B.T.Q.+ people looking for a place in which they can be themselves. New York City was where you lost your soul, and we wanted to be closer to the earth. I wore an eight-and-a-half-foot-tall Statue of Liberty costume to the Easter Parade in New York City, and Kirsten came along with me. By the time I turned 30, I’d been telling people I was older for years, because I’m not the type to bemoan the loss of my youth.

Read previewOceanGate's co-founder said he thinks about the fatal Titan submersible voyage every day, and the incident pushes him to continue pursuing his vision of accessible deep-sea exploration. It's almost in the definition of exploration," he told BI in a recent interview. AdvertisementA communications firm representing OceanGate wrote in a brief email to BI that "OceanGate has suspended all exploration and commercial operations." Last year, Söhnlein told BI of his grand vision to send 1,000 people to a floating colony on Venus. And I think that's just kind of a lesson learned for everybody."

Until the streaming relaunch, the show was hard to find, existing in DVDs at junk shops and in the depths of Amazon Prime Video. In recent days the Styles journalists Melissa Guerrero, Sadiba Hasan, Callie Holtermann and Louis Lucero — all members of the Millennial or Gen Z generations who had never seen “L.A. Law” — watched the first three episodes on Hulu. They shared their observations with the editors Minju Pak and Jim Windolf, who were fans of the show in its heyday. It was the subject of workplace conversation and countless think pieces, and it won 15 Emmys before the final gavel in 1994.

Steam feeding into the Unit 3 turbine generator of the Vogtle nuclear power plant in Waynesboro, Ga. “The United States is now committed to trying to accelerate the deployment of nuclear energy,” John Kerry, President Biden’s climate envoy, said in September. One recent Pew survey found that 57 percent of Americans favor more nuclear plants, up from 43 percent in 2016. A NuScale engineer gave a tour of a control room simulator, modeling the company’s plans for new nuclear reactors, in 2013. “The demand for clean energy is almost unprecedented,” said Maria Korsnick, president of the Nuclear Energy Institute, an industry group.

Wright, who plays for Sunderland in England's second tier, told Australian reporters at the stadium that he had grave fears for his mother-in-law's health. Wright said he had not told his team mates about his worries back home. Graham Arnold's Australia meet Argentina in the last 16 at Qatar, only the second time the Socceroos have made the knockout phase. Few gave Australia much of a chance to advance from a group that also featured 2018 champions France and Tunisia. However, the Socceroos had already shown through an arduous qualifying journey that they liked doing things "the hard way", said Wright.
