☆ Fans are wondering why Paul Mescal is playing Lucius in 'Gladiator 2' instead of Spencer Treat Clark. Ridley Scott explained his reasoning.

Read previewThe trailer for the "Gladiator" sequel dropped on Tuesday, leaving fans wondering why Paul Mescal plays slave fighter Lucius instead of Spencer Treat Clark, who played him in the original. Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" starred Russell Crowe as Maximus Decimus Meridius, a former Roman general who is betrayed and sold into slavery. The 2000 movie is one of the most beloved historical epics of all time and won five Oscars, including best film, best actor, and best director. But like Maximus, he's forced into becoming a fighter when he's captured by General Marcus Acacius (Pedro Pascal) and his soldiers. Representatives for Spencer Treat Clark did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

☆ A Pennsylvania home care agency was ordered to pay $1.2 million to workers who the DOL says didn't get correct overtime wages
  + stars: | 2022-04-21 | by ( Grace Dean | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
A home care agency in Pennsylvania failed to pay correct overtime wages to around 200 staff, the DOL said. A court ordered the company and its owner to pay $1.16 million in back wages and damages. From around April 2020, Nursing Care in Home started paying an overtime premium to some employees but not for others, the DOL said. Some employees' overtime premium was calculated incorrectly because the company didn't factor a $240 bi-weekly hazard pay bonus into their standard rate of pay, the DOL said. "The Wage and Hour Division will not tolerate the exploitation of care workers or attempts to circumvent federal overtime laws."
