DORA requires banks, insurance companies and investment to strengthen their IT security. The EU regulation also seeks to ensure the financial services industry is resilient in the event of a severe disruption to operations. These IT providers often deliver "critical digital services to customers," said Joe Vaccaro, general manager of Cisco-owned internet quality monitoring firm ThousandEyes. This has made banks and other financial services providers more vulnerable to cyberattacks and other incidents. DORA will focus more on banks' digital supply chain — which represents a new, potentially less comfortable legal dynamic for financial firms.

Subsea cables are the backbone of the internet, carrying 99% of the world's data traffic. What are subsea cables? Subsea cables are the backbone of the global internet, carrying 99% of the world's intercontinental data traffic. More recently, U.S. tech giants including Meta, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon have invested significant sums to lay down their own cables. Many international subsea cable projects are reportedly circumventing China today due to concerns over data security and Beijing's expanding geopolitical influence.

Fast-food franchisees in California fear diners will flock to Chili's and Applebee's to avoid price hikes. As a result, the price gap between fast-food and casual dining restaurants could narrow. This could potentially cause the price difference between fast-food and casual dining restaurants to shrink. Fast-food restaurants in California have been hiking prices to offset the wage, which is 25% above the state's general minimum wage. "We're gonna start to compete with them," Ghai said, speaking about the casual dining restaurants.

Read previewCalifornia is raising the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 an hour – and a much wider group of employees could see bigger paychecks. If limited-service restaurants raise their wages, "everybody is going to have to adopt because it's a free market," Danilo Gargiulo, a Bernstein analyst, said. Fast-food and fast-casual chains have already said they plan to raise their menu prices in California to offset the higher wages. The Cheesecake Factory's CFO Matt Clark told investors in November that the minimum wage could have a "ripple effect" beyond just limited-service restaurants. He added that the legislation would cause the price gap between limited- and full-service restaurants to narrow.

Tagovailoa finished 21 of 30 for 243 yards with the TD to Hill and the two INTs. Hill's touchdown catch was his 10th of the season, making him the first Dolphins player since Mike Wallace in 2014 to have double-digit TD receptions. Reed intercepted Tagovailoa on the Dolphins' next possession, giving the Jets the ball at their 49 with 2 seconds left. Mostert's 13-yard touchdown run on the first play of the fourth quarter gave the Dolphins a 27-6 lead — and tempers flared after that.

The bull case for Dave & Buster's Entertainment remains intact, Raymond James says. Analyst Brian M. Vaccaro maintained a strong buy rating on Dave & Buster's and raised his price target, saying the restaurant and entertainment firm's presentation at its analyst day this week supported his positive view on the stock. Dave & Buster's is outperforming the broader market this year, up 30%, while the S & P 500 is 13% higher. The analyst expects some investors to take a "wait and see" approach to Dave & Buster's, given a murky economic outlook that may hurt discretionary spending. "If comps can return to positive territory, high single-digit unit growth and margin expansion should drive 10%+ EBITDA growth over the next few years," Vaccaro wrote.

‘Air’ Review: Ben Affleck’s Sneaker Story
  + stars: | 2023-04-07 | by ( Kyle Smith | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
Do you care enough about a sneaker-endorsement deal from nearly 40 years ago to watch a movie about it? “Air” and its director, Ben Affleck , think that you might, if the sneaker is Nike and the endorser is Michael Jordan . And wouldn’t it be great if people returned to the multiplexes for a reality-grounded story that features no superpowers unless you count Mr. Jordan’s celebrated ability to fly to the bucket? Instead of the usual green-screen overload, Mr. Affleck offers lots of what used to be known as star power, before it became clear that actors no longer drive sales. Welcome to a strange attempt at an underdog tale about a publicly traded corporation with sales in the hundreds of millions and a boss who drives a high-end Porsche.
Vaccaro, 83, was a key figure in Nike's push to sign Michael Jordan in 1984. No one in his family went to college, Vaccaro said in an interview over a pancake breakfast in 2021. Matt Damon plays Sonny Vaccaro in the new "Air" movie about how Nike signed Michael Jordan. "The signing of Michael Jordan, yeah, success has a thousand fathers, and failure is an orphan," Knight told USA Today in 2015. "A lot of people want to take credit for signing Michael Jordan, most obviously Sonny Vaccaro."
The Business Genius in ‘Air’ Isn’t Michael Jordan

There’s a scene in the new movie “Air” that should be required viewing for any executive in any line of work. It’s a conversation between Phil Knight and Sonny Vaccaro , the characters played by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon , in which the Nike co-founder gives his company’s basketball guru the budget to sign a rookie named Michael Jordan . Before they offer him a shoe deal, Knight has one final question for Vaccaro: What’s the name of the sneaker? “Air Jordan.”
The movie also shows how early Nike employees didn't hesitate to break rules. The scene sums up what's right, and what's wrong, with the movie, according to former and current Nike employees. It shows early Nike employees didn't hesitate to take risks. Nike veterans said the movie captures the company's willingness to take risks, especially early executives like Phil Knight, played by director Ben Affleck. Affleck, who also played Knight in the movie, nailed the story's arc, by all accounts.

Affleck, who also played Knight in the movie, nailed the story's arc, by all accounts.
REUTERS/Lauren JusticeLOS ANGELES, April 3 (Reuters) - Actor Ben Affleck is hopeful for basketball legend Michael Jordan’s seal of approval after directing the biographical sports film, "Air," which is based on Jordan’s historic deal with the Nike (NKE.N) shoe brand. Affleck plays Nike co-founder Phil Knight and “The Woman King” actor Viola Davis portrays Jordan’s mother, Deloris Jordan. There was one key role that Affleck and Damon decided not to fill, and it was Michael Jordan’s. “The second you put the camera on an actor and say ‘Hey, it’s Michael Jordan’ and it’s not Michael Jordan, you’re going to lose the audience, so we knew. Michael’s just too famous and means too much to people to try to have someone else play him in a movie,” Damon said.
The movie stars Ben Affleck as Nike cofounder Phil Knight and Matt Damon as Nike executive Sonny Vaccaro. In the trailer, Knight's character, played by Ben Affleck, responds to hearing the "Air Jordan" name for Michael Jordan's line of footwear and apparel. Knight's office is filled with booksIn the trailer, there are numerous books on the shelves in Knight's office. Phil Knight's 'rumpled' clothesIn three scenes in the trailer, Knight's character wears a wrinkled suit with the necktie pulled loose. He had a garage full of raw rubber, got some and put it on his wife's waffle iron," Knight said.
That debate will get renewed attention in April when Ben Affleck and Matt Damon release "Air," a movie that recounts how Nike signed Jordan. "A lot of people want to take credit for signing Michael Jordan, most obviously Sonny Vaccaro." It's unclear if Vaccaro spoke with Knight, Vaccaro, or Jordan or if he relied on existing sources, including "Sole Man," an ESPN documentary about Vaccaro. Several books and news stories also have recounted how the Jordan deal came about, including parts of "Just do it," "Swoosh," and a sweeping 1992 story in the Washington Post. Regardless of the movie's spin on events, the Jordan deal was a pivotal moment for Nike.

Mulți ani la rând, dânsa a lucrat în calitate de badanta (îngrijitoare de bătrâni) până când s-a confruntat cu o depresie ce poartă numele de „sindromul Italia”. Anume acest moment trist al vieții ei a devenit motiv pentru o carte de benzi desenate care reflectă soarta femeilor din Moldova și România plecate la muncă peste hotare pentru a îngriji de bătrâni. Acest moment dificil din viața ei a devenit laitmotiv pentru o carte cu benzi desenate scrise de Tiziana Francesca Vaccaro și ilustrată de Elena Mistrelli, intitulată Sindrome Italia (deocamdată doar în limba italiană). Iar cartea Sindrome Italia a devenit un simbol a tot ceea ce a simțit și speră ea, un suport și ajutor pentru femeile care încă mai lucrează în calitate de îngrijitoare de bătrâni.
