☆ Trump’s extreme rhetoric is a mainstay of his 2024 campaign. Much of it could become a reality if he wins another term

His pledge to direct Justice Department investigations is backed by allies who view his second term as driven by a maximalist theory of a president’s authority. But it also underscores why a second Trump term would be dramatically different. Some in Washington saw them as guardrails for a White House intent on fracturing not one, but all three branches of government. Yet Trump, should he secure a second term, would enter the White House with his most powerful Republican critics on Capitol Hill almost all gone. That would be a position that isn’t backed by his second term policy plans, or his private impulses during his first term in office – or, for that matter, in the decades prior.

☆ How Parrot Analytics shook up Hollywood by picking streaming hits
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-08 | by ( Lucia Moses | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +10 min

The Hollywood strikes thrust Parrot Analytics, which measures film and TV demand, into the spotlight. Parrot Analytics, a decade-old research firm, has in recent years built a complicated reputation in Hollywood with its proprietary system for measuring audience interest in films and TV shows. As streaming consumption skyrocketed and companies like Netflix kept audience data under wraps, Parrot offered one of the few apples-to-apples measurements across different series and films. Some producers and agents say Parrot has brought much-needed transparency to content measurement. "Parrot Analytics would reward quite a few shows that weren't the most viewed shows in America," he wrote.

It's a fairly even load across the entire team," Gerhardsson said. "No one is really lagging behind right now, which means that we've got a good starting point in terms of training and how the players have fared. Sweden has been one of the consistently good teams on the World Cup stage, capturing three bronze medals including four years ago in France. "It's so promising for women's football, it feels like we've got interesting players popping up all over the place."

☆ Your Spring Soundtrack
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-22 | by ( Melissa Kirsch | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

On weekends in springtime, when the warmer weather has yet to click into place, relaxing can be hard. The playlist, a collaborative effort by readers of The Morning, is a big sprawling thing. We weren’t able to include every song submitted, but at over 24 hours, the playlist is more than long enough to provide a soundtrack for your entire spring. Put it on while you’re making breakfast, while you’re running errands, while you’re on a long drive. How long had it been since I found myself with a totally unscheduled hour in a strange place?

My mom worked at K-Mart, earning $1.68 an hour. My parents worked for the Army Security Agency, encrypting top-secret communications between officers — the same level of classified intelligence making headlines today. Enlisting in the Army helped my parents build generational wealthAfter college, my mom worked for the State of Michigan for 27 years. My dad worked for the State of Michigan for 28 years. The military money helps cover bills for my 70-year-old mom, but she believes the direction and support they received in the military had a much greater impact.

Potrivit revistei Oggi, suedezul ar fi petrecut noaptea dintre ani alături de jurnalista Diletta Leotta (29 de ani), chiar în casa acesteia. Nu e prima oară când Zlatan și Diletta sunt văzuți împreună. În vară, ”Ibra” și jurnalista au fost surprinși la o cină romantică, într-un restaurant de lux din Sardinia. Dezvăluirile italienilor vin imediat după ce Diletta Leotta a fost văzută în compania actorului Can Yaman (31 de ani). Frumusețea ei a fost recunoscută la scară națională acum zece ani, când a câștigat titlul "Miss Elegant" la concursul de frumusețe Miss Italia.
