Read previewAs a kid, Rob Chisholm was not drawn to the fast-paced, jet-setting life of a Wall Street banker. Well, maybe if I wanted to be an investment banker or something, I would care about that, Chisholm remembers thinking. Chisholm, on the other hand, is very open about his unorthodox path to Wall Street and the resulting feelings of being an outsider. AdvertisementWhen Chisholm was in college, he rejected the "cliche" of going to an Ivy League and getting a job on Wall Street. At the time, Chisholm admitted, Wall Street seemed like the "complete opposite in terms of the culture and the incentives" he thought he wanted.

The purpose of the network was to smuggle people, not bring in terrorists, one of the officials said. There was specific “derogatory information” linking those individuals to ISIS, the official said. In the latest case, the 400 migrants under scrutiny – mostly from Central Asian nations – are being screened purely because of their connection to the human smuggling network. The leadership of ISIS-K is mainly made up of Tajik nationals and the group has recruited from both countries. Tajik nationals have carried out a series of recent attacks in Europe on behalf of the group, including the Crocus Hall attack in Moscow in March that killed more than 100 people.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Wednesday walked free after pleading guilty in a U.S. court in the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. commonwealth in the Pacific, to a felony charge for publishing U.S. military secrets. As part of the plea agreement, the U.S. is bound to withdraw its extradition request and recommended a sentence to time already served, with no additional fines issued.

And it may impact your stroke risk, according to a new study. This suggests that the biggest impact on stroke risk occurs over the long term. People who scored high on the loneliness scale both times they were surveyed had a much higher risk of stroke, the study said. And that feeling of loneliness is what the study found to be correlated to the increased risk of stroke, Soh said. “Make it be known that you are experiencing feelings of loneliness, and also identify what would be helpful for you specifically to address the feelings of loneliness,” Soh said.

The technology to store renewable energy for long periods hasn’t quite been mastered, either. The interconnector would send renewable energy both east and west, taking advantage of the sun’s diurnal journey across the sky. The transatlantic interconnector is still a proposal, but networks of green energy cables are starting to sprawl across the world’s sea beds. They are fast becoming part of a global climate solution, transmitting large amounts of renewable energy to countries struggling to make the green transition alone. Not all of them carry renewable power exclusively — that’s sometimes determined by what makes up each country’s energy grid — but new ones are typically being built for a green energy future.

☆ Why Americans Hate Their Jobs; Fake Email Jobs, Meaningless Work
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-26 | by ( Molly Lipson | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +11 min

The American Psychological Association highlights findings that people who find their jobs meaningful are more engaged, show up to work more, and are healthier. Many in those industries have begun to refer to their work as "fake email jobs" — office jobs that largely involve sending emails without producing anything. Other people have managed to juggle multiple full-time remote jobs thanks to the limited amount of work each job actually required. Working a useless job is a "profound psychological violence," Graeber wrote, one that removes any sense of dignity and fosters "deep rage and resentment." Short of everyone quitting to become their own CEO, employers will need to figure out how to make work feel meaningful for their staff.

The European Court of Human Rights ruled on Tuesday that Russia and its proxy security forces in Crimea have committed multiple human rights violations during its decade-long occupation of the former Ukrainian territory. Between 2014 and 2018, there have been 43 cases of enforced disappearances, with eight people still missing. The disappeared were mostly pro-Ukrainian activists and journalists, or members of Crimea’s Tatar ethnic minority, the court found. Investigations of the disappearances went nowhere, the court added in its judgment. Men and women were abducted by the Crimean self-defense forces, by Russian security forces or by agents of Russia’s Federal Security Service, or F.S.B.

CNN —The Biden campaign is blasting former President Donald Trump over abortion rights in a new TV ad coinciding with the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade and days ahead of the first presidential debate. “He’s now a convicted felon,” Joshua says in the ad as an image of Trump in court flashes across the screen. States where abortion is most limited report higher rates of maternal and infant mortality, as well as greater economic insecurity. The Biden campaign and White House are also bracing for a major Supreme Court decision on emergency abortion access. While Biden prepares for the debate, his campaign is hosting more than 50 events across the country around Monday’s anniversary of the Dobbs decision.
