For more such gems, associate editor and breakfast enthusiast Krysten Chambrot has put together this stunning roundup of our best breakfast recipes. Anyone not instantly hypnotized by the opening GIF of syrupy blueberries and melting butter dripping down a stack of lemon ricotta pancakes has a stronger will (or a weaker sweet tooth) than me. Anyway, now I know what I’m having for breakfast tonight. But getting back to the savory side. When I was growing up my parents sometimes fried leftover pasta for breakfast, all of us vying for the crispiest bits.

Zillow's rent reporting is free for tenants who pay rent through Zillow. Tenants who currently use Zillow to pay rent can opt into rent reporting through their Renter Payments Dashboard. In order to pay rent through Zillow, your landlord must be enrolled and send you an invitation link. Once a tenant has opted in to rent reporting, Zillow will identify on-time rent payments — made within 30 days of the due date — and report them to Experian. Competition among the best rent reporting services is fierce, with many services offering features like utilities reporting, up to 24 months of retroactive rent reporting, and tri-bureau rent reporting.

☆ UK bars Abu Dhabi-backed group from acquiring Telegraph, pending review
▼ + stars: | 2023-12-01 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

LONDON, Dec 1 (Reuters) - Britain's government on Friday blocked an Abu Dhabi-backed group from taking ownership of the media group that owns the Telegraph newspaper while its takeover bid is scrutinised by regulators over freedom of expression concerns. The government intervened in the planned deal on Thursday when it asked regulators to examine the deal. On Friday, culture and media minister Lucy Frazer set out an enforcement order preventing any transfer of ownership of the Telegraph Media Group without her permission and also stopping any changes of its structure or senior editorial staff. As well as the right-leaning Telegraph newspaper, the group owns the Spectator magazine. They are up for sale after Lloyds Banking Group in June seized control following a long-running dispute with owners, the Barclay family.

CNN —Yevgeny Prigozhin turned the Wagner Group from a shadowy band of mercenaries into a feared military powerhouse operating across multiple countries on three continents. The kind of clear chain of command that is common in traditional military does not exist in Wagner, which makes Prigozhin’s demise a potentially existential problem for the group. Members of Wagner group sit atop of a tank in a street in the city of Rostov-on-Don, on June 24, 2023. A Russian military delegation went to the Libyan city of Benghazi this week to meet with Haftar, who has been supported by Wagner for several years. He said the cracks in the foundations of West African and Central African countries that have leaned on the Wagner Group for support could begin to emerge now.

☆ Fact Check-News broadcast image does not exaggerate heatwave in France
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-31 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

An image of a French news report about hot weather in Corsica is being falsely touted online as evidence of the media exaggerating high temperatures in France. The image is a cropped still from a broadcast weather report on CNEWS, a French-language news channel. “Same temperature manipulation in France relating to Corsica,” said one social media user sharing the image on messaging platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Reuters traced the image to a weather report broadcast on CNEWS on July 18 (here). The visuals were filmed on July 17 and were used to illustrate a broadcast on July 18 about temperatures forecast for later that day.

☆ I gave up my 6-figure journalism job to become a high school teacher. It was a huge culture shock — and nothing like 'Dead Poets Society.'
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-29 | by ( Jyoti Mann | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +6 min

She gave up her six-figure salary to retrain as a teacher and set up the charity Now Teach. My mum was a great school teacher and when she died when I was in my forties I briefly thought about becoming a teacher like her. Ten years later when my dad died, I thought I needed to do something radical with the time I had left of my working life. So for me to leave readers with the impression that my life is like "Dead Poets Society" couldn't be further from the truth. I knew from writing about working life that many people in their fifties who were lawyers or worked in other corporate roles get bored with it and want to do something more useful.

☆ Bud Light lost its crown as America's 'King of Beers' — but it was going to happen even without the conservative boycott

Modelo passed Bud Light, which has been the subject of a boycott by conservatives. It recently took the crown from Bud Light, which saw its market share drop to 7%. "Modelo and Michelob Ultra (another Anheuser-Busch brand) both were on track to eventually overtake Bud Light," Maloney wrote, citing long-term market share data. "Everybody kinda figured Bud Light was getting hit by that boycott, so it fell out of No. But Neil Reid, a professor at the University of Toledo who studies the beer industry, told Reuters that the Bud Light boycott is lingering longer than expected.
