☆ Sheryl Sandberg and LeanIn.org launch Lean In Girls initiative: 'We're telling girls you can lead on your own terms'
  + stars: | 2023-07-28 | by ( Julia Boorstin | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
Sheryl Sandberg and her Lean In organization are rolling out a new program for girls ages 11-15, designed to encourage girls to set leadership goals, navigate risk, and identify and challenge bias. Sandberg says she was inspired to create this new initiative because the adult Lean In community is thriving, with 80,000 circles in 183 countries, growing faster than ever before. "Girls in high school are twice as likely as boys to think that having any leadership role will make them be called 'bossy.' "We really want girls to embrace and lean into their superpowers. We want girls to know that they're going to face stereotypes that there's going to be headwinds.

☆ Tornado alley is widening, putting millions more people and properties at risk

Much of that is because the season is starting earlier, and tornado alley is expanding due to a warmer climate. Tornadoes need four ingredients to form, explained Ashley: moisture, instability (which provides the energy necessary for the storms), wind shear and lift. When a powerful F-4 tornado plowed through Rolling Fork, Mississippi, in March, residents were largely unprepared. The only one that I can remember is 1971, and the tornado bypassed Rolling Fork. That's precisely why the widening of tornado alley is fast becoming a new focus for insurers.

☆ How a Texas farm girl went from intern to CEO of a logistics startup with $53 million in funding before the age of 40

On the path from unpaid intern to CEO, Heather Salomon-Hoover wrote four resignation letters. And after nearly 18 years at the Texas delivery firm uShip, Salomon-Hoover officially became CEO Thursday. She's held 11 different positions at the company before CEO, including chief operating officer and interim CEO. That's a long way from uShip, which specializes in moving bulky, oddly shaped goods across town or across the country. I'm a first-time CEO, first-time board member, and for that I'm constantly looking to grow my mentorship base," she said.

For Laroi, there is no clearly defined day or night. Sometimes he drives all night and sleeps all day; sometimes he sleeps all day and drives all night. One day a week, Sophie works late so she can meet with far-flung colleagues in real time. Now she has enough energy left at the end of the day to go grocery shopping and cook dinner. The time markers reflect the time of day when participants told an interviewer they would normally be doing the activity shown.

April 2 (Reuters) - The death toll from a violent storm that whipped up tornadoes in the Southern and Midwestern regions of the United States rose to at least 29 over the weekend, according to officials and media reports. In Memphis, Tennessee, two children and an adult were found dead on Saturday after the storm's heavy winds knocked trees onto several houses, according to the Memphis Police Department. In Tennessee's McNairy County, officials reported that an additional two people had died, having reported seven deaths earlier on Saturday, according to local media. U.S. President Joe Biden declared a "major disaster" in Arkansas on Sunday, ordering federal aid to help with the recovery. loadingSimilarly severe weather, including thunderstorms, was forecast for Tuesday in much of the Midwest between Chicago and Little Rock, Arkansas, the center said.
