No one has been able to dethrone Nvidia as the top play in generative artificial intelligence, according to Bernstein. Analyst Stacy Rasgon said chipmaker Nvidia is still the best pick for investing around generative AI. "If you really want to invest in generative AI, NVDA remains your best option," Rasgon said in a Tuesday note to clients. A deal with VMWare could also drive further upside, Rasgon said.

Elsewhere in southwest Houston, Ms. Lakshmi tastes suya, bole, fufu, asun and jollof, tries her hand at pounding yam and practices the art of scooping soup with swallows. She moves from the kitchen at Margaret Chibuzo’s Safari restaurant to the dining room, where she shares egusi soup with the gospel singer Stacy Egbo. I encountered not just the Nigerian, but the Liberian, Ghanaian and broader West African communities in Newark and Charlotte, Atlanta and Albuquerque. By ensuring access to ingredients, they’d helped steward our shared culture a world away. Versions of egusi soup dotted menus in every city we stopped, and I relished each one.

In June 2022 the UAE banned Walt Disney-Pixar's animated feature film "Lightyear" from screening because it features characters in a same-sex relationship. The youth and culture ministry said it "violated the nation's media content standard".

☆ The recycling idea at Levi's, Adidas, Zara to stop trillions in fast fashion from going to waste
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-11 | by ( Carolyn Chun | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +8 min

The multi-trillion dollar fashion industry contributes significant greenhouse gas emissions, between 8% to 10% of total global emissions, according to the United Nations. With the majority of textiles in the fashion industry blended, it is harder to recycle one fiber without harming another. Spinnova partnered with the world's largest pulp and paper company this year, Suzano, to turn wood and waste into recycled textile fiber. Textile waste, by some measures, is a bigger issue than plastics waste, and it has a similar problem. Late last year it worked on a limited collection with fast fashion clothing giant — and consumer consumption flashpoint — Zara, using its recycled textile waste material.

And there’s one thing some fans are particularly excited about: Gwen Stacy – a Spider superhero in an alternative universe – might be transgender. “Trans (and even cis) fans have every right to say Gwen Stacy is trans, even if the movies never outright confirm it. But whether Gwen Stacy is actually trans isn’t the most important part, Tunnell said. The first movie, “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” was praised at the time of its release for highlighting minority cultures. A third “Spider-Verse” film, “Beyond the Spider-Verse,” is set to be released next year.

In 2022, Stacy Batten said, her “whole year was on fire.”Her husband died of cancer, and her father died after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease. And she moved across the country from Seattle to Fairfield County, Conn., after selling the home that she had lived in for 26 years. In her devastation, she noticed that she felt better when she looked for the good parts of each day. So she took a large Mason jar and turned it into a “gratitude jar,” which she now keeps on her night stand. Every night, she writes down a few things that she is grateful for on a scrap of paper and drops it inside.

In the 2018 animated hit “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” Miles Morales, a Brooklyn teenage superhero in development, receives multiple unexpected visits from other dimensions. For the film’s sequel, “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,” it’s Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) who must follow Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld), a version of Spider-Woman, into new realms where other spider people exist. “It’s almost like we’re jumping from one book to another,” Thompson said. Rick Leonardi, who designed the comic “Spider-Man 2099,” came on board to help devise 3-D animation tools that could emulate his line work. And Brian Stelfreeze, a seasoned artist for Marvel Comics, was instrumental in formulating the film’s take on Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman.

☆ Cycle Syncing Is Trendy. Does It Work?

According to proponents of cycle syncing, in this phase the body is primed to take on stress and can recover more quickly. And it remains unclear whether cycle syncing makes sense for women using hormonal forms of birth control. The bits of scientific and anecdotal evidence showing fluctuations in performance or energy throughout the menstrual cycle also don’t prove that syncing workouts to the cycle will optimize fitness. One of the main aims of the Empow’her program is to fill that void, Ms. Antero said. She plans to publish the results of the training program after the Olympics.

☆ How the 'water bed effect' is costing you at the grocery store

But that habit creates a "water bed effect," putting pressure on small grocers, an NYT opinion says. For the food industry, the consequences of the water bed effect have included consolidation and less competition, Mitchell wrote. Walmart commanded about one-quarter of US grocery sales in 2021, according to Euromonitor. The subject of grocery consolidation was a concern to small grocers before the most recent merger proposal. Independent grocers represent up to one-third of US grocery sales, according to a 2021 estimate from the National Grocers Association.

Nvidia now trades at around 45 times Wall Street's average earnings estimates for the next 12 months - a popular measure known as the forward price/earnings (P/E) ratio. While investors rushed to buy Nvidia's stock in recent sessions, its P/E multiple has fallen simply because Wall Street's earnings expectations for the company rose even faster than its share price. During Tuesday's session, Nvidia became the first chipmaker to boast a $1 trillion valuation. AI was mentioned 86 times on Nvidia's conference call, beating out 52 mentions on Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) call and 35 mentions on Microsoft's (MSFT.O) call.

Solomon said there were fewer "partner transitions at Goldman Sachs" in 2022 than any year "going back to 2014." Meanwhile, Solomon's expensive foray into consumer banking raised the ire of some longtime Goldman partners, as Insider has previously reported. The fresh faces among the Goldman Sachs executives who took the stage at the bank's investor day highlight the leadership changes under Solomon.

☆ Why Inflation Is the Excuse for Higher Grocery Prices - The New York Times
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-29 | by ( Stacy Mitchell | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +2 min

Food Fresh is the only grocery store in a rural stretch of southeastern Georgia. Big retailers like Walmart and Kroger “have a handle on suppliers that I can’t touch,” said Food Fresh’s owner, Michael Gay. The chains wrest deep discounts from suppliers, making it impossible for the store to come close to matching their prices. To understand why grocery prices are way up, we need to look past the headlines about inflation and reconsider long-held ideas about the benefits of corporate bigness. Major grocery suppliers, including Kraft Heinz, General Mills and Clorox, rely on Walmart for more than 20 percent of their sales.
