☆ Russia hit Google with a fine so big it defies comprehension, exposing a legal system adrift
  + stars: | 2024-11-04 | by ( Joshua Nelken-Zitser | Kieran Corcoran | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
The fine points to a Russian legal system focused more on symbolic punishment than enforcement. All the same, that is what a Russian court maintains the company owes, as punishment for suspending accounts from YouTube. Related storiesLegal experts told Business Insider what it symbolizes is a Russian legal and economic system estranged from much of the world. AdvertisementRussia has effectively annulled intellectual property rights, enabling its companies to freely use patents and designs from Western companies. The scholars BI spoke to did not expect any other nation's court to try to enforce the Google fine.

☆ I'm delighted by this car dealership's parody of 'The Office'
  + stars: | 2024-06-27 | by ( Katie Notopoulos | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
The workplace drama I'm now highly invested in is from the Mohawk Chevrolet dealership in Ballston Spa, New York. The three-person marketing team in charge of posting on social media would sometimes try to jump on a TikTok trend or some other kind of lighthearted fare. So far, nothing out of the ordinary for a car dealership, this one founded in 1919 with the slogan "We go out of our way to please you." But then, somehow, they made a masterpiece — a mockumentary about the dealership in the style of "The Office." But is a viral video from a local car dealership actually good for sales?

His teacher yelled at him, he said. And when Ms. Lopez picked him up from school, he would often immediately start to cry. This year at a new school, Nathanael, 7, was happier. He shared a teacher with only six other students — not in one classroom, but in the entire school. Nathanael attended a microschool, an increasingly popular type of super-small, largely unregulated private school, often serving fewer students than are enrolled in a single classroom at a traditional school.

☆ Flipping a Switch and Making Cancers Self-Destruct
  + stars: | 2023-07-26 | by ( Gina Kolata | More About Gina Kolata | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Within every cancer are molecules that spur deadly, uncontrollable growth. What if scientists could hook those molecules to others that make cells self-destruct? Could the very drivers of a cancer’s survival instead activate the program for its destruction? “It’s very cool,” said Jason Gestwicki, professor of pharmaceutical chemistry at the University of California, San Francisco. “It turns something the cancer cell needs to stay alive into something that kills it, like changing your vitamin into a poison.”

☆ Bank of England considers clampdown on foreign bank branches- FT
  + stars: | 2023-07-04 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
July 4 (Reuters) - The Bank of England is looking at plans to force more international banks to set up subsidiaries in the UK, The Financial Times reported on Tuesday. The BOE is considering the plan as a part of a review of the collapse earlier this year of U.S. bank Silicon Valley Bank, the newspaper reported, citing people familiar. The move could reduce the thresholds requiring foreign banks with corporate business in the country to set up subsidiaries, the paper said. Nathanael Benjamin, the BOE's executive director for authorizations and international banks on Monday said the central bank will reflect on the threshold for a foreign bank branch to become a subsidiary. Following the collapse of its parent company in the United States, Silicon Valley Bank's UK arm was sold to HSBC (HSBA.L) in March to avoid disrupting its customers in Britain.

☆ Read Your Way Through Los Angeles
  + stars: | 2023-05-17 | by ( Héctor Tobar | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Read Your Way Around the World is a series exploring the globe through books. Outsiders often think of Los Angeles as an anti-intellectual place, all Hollywood glitz and no substance, but writers have always been drawn to my hometown. In David L. Ulin’s “Writing Los Angeles: A Literary Anthology,” I read about Simone de Beauvoir’s 1947 journey to L.A.’s Eastside, where she learned about the city’s anti-Mexican prejudice and admired Dia de los Muertos skulls. It’s no accident that two very different, canonical works of L.A. literature climax with riots, even though they were written more than a half century apart: Nathanael West’s 1939 novel “The Day of the Locust,” and Anna Deavere Smith’s play “Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992.”Is there a book, or a writer, who captures the essence of Los Angeles? With her iconic 1960s and ‘70s essays about Los Angeles and the West, in collections such as “Slouching Towards Bethlehem,” Didion helped invent New Journalism.

In 2020, while working as a staff nurse at a hospital in Spartanburg, South Carolina, Aspen Tucker came across a job posting for a travel nurse. In 2020, Aspen Tucker left his staff nursing job to become a travel nurse, a move that came with a significant bump in pay. "I'm able to have a high salary as a travel nurse, but also come back to where the cost of living is low," he says. That month he split an Airbnb with his girlfriend (also a travel nurse who occasionally takes jobs at the same hospitals) in addition to paying his mortgage and utilities back home. When he's traveling work, Tucker pays friends and family to take care of his dog, Skye.
☆ Ukrainian MP blames looming Russian offensive on Western countries taking months to send tanks: ‘People will die because of this’

Russia's upcoming offensive will take advantage of delays in sending Ukraine tanks, an MP told Insider. Germany and the US hesitated for months in sending tanks to Ukraine, prompting outcry from officials.

☆ With close military encounters on opposite sides of the world, Russia is sending a message to the West
  + stars: | 2021-07-15 | by ( Christopher Woody | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
Russia's military had close encounters with its US and European rivals in June. The incidents and exercises were messages about Russia's military capabilities, experts said. A Russian fighter jet flying past the Dutch frigate HNLMS Evertsen in the Black Sea on June 24. Russia's military drilled around Crimea throughout the end of June and early July, focusing on attacking the ships of "a notional enemy." Russian officials continue to call the HMS Defender incident a "provocation" and warn about future run-ins.
