Together with her friend Mariah Allen, she started a company called Controlled Chaos in 2021 to sell pre-worn festival outfits. Getting thriftyThough she went to music festivals like Warped Tour when she was in high school, Karasack started regularly going to festivals, especially electronic dance music festivals like Electric Forest, in 2018. So in 2021, she decided to make her own festival outfits, using the sewing skills her grandmother had taught her as a child. In 2024, she'll attend eight music festivals, and she typically goes to nine or 10 per year. "The music festival scene is the most open and welcoming scene that there is — it is so much fun," she says.

AdvertisementJoe Biden is taking last-minute measures to support Ukraine before leaving things to Donald Trump. He finally let Ukraine use US missiles to strike inside Russia and approved anti-personnel mines. These moves appear aimed at changing the war before Trump — who seems to want most to end the conflict as soon as possible — takes office. Biden, whose administration has sent billions of dollars in weaponry to Ukraine, recently lifted long-held restrictions on Kyiv's use of American-made longer-range missiles to strike targets inside Russia. And during a press briefing that same day, State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said the Biden administration moved to forgive about $4.7 billion in US loans to Ukraine.

Canadian uranium miner Cameco Corporation is well positioned for growth on rising demand for nuclear power in the U.S. and less exposure to global geopolitical risk, according to Goldman Sachs. CCJ YTD mountain Cameco, YTD Cameco is integrated across uranium mining, conversion and fabrication as well nuclear services through its stake in Westinghouse, Mehta wrote. Cameco is also an attractive partner for Western utilities because the company has relatively low geopolitical risk. This puts the uranium price midpoint at around $100 which is well above current spot levels of about $80 per pound, according to Goldman. Cameco is still working through the financial impact of its Westinghouse acquisition, but the miner sees a 6% to 10% growth rate over the next five years for the nuclear services company.

A changing ChinaIt was a different world in the late 2000s and early 2010s, when Chinese students first began surging overseas. In 2020, the US revoked visas for more than 1,000 Chinese students and researchers deemed security risks. In January this year, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said in a briefing that “dozens of Chinese nationals, including international students, have been forcibly deported by the US each month.” He decried it as “discriminatory,” urging the US to protect the rights of Chinese students abroad. The Covid yearsThe number of Chinese students in the US plunged during the pandemic and hasn’t rebounded since. “Since the economic sanctions and tech restrictions started in 2018, many (Chinese) students have been sent back home,” one user wrote on Weibo.

The United States imposed sanctions on Monday on an Israeli settler group it accused of helping perpetrate violence in the occupied West Bank, which has seen a rise in settler attacks on Palestinians. The sanctions also target a subsidiary of Amana called Binyanei Bar Amana, described by Treasury as a company that builds and sell homes in Israeli settlements and settler outposts. Israel has settled the West Bank since capturing it during the 1967 Middle East war. Israel views the West Bank as the biblical Judea and Samaria, and the settlers cite biblical ties to the land. Last week, nearly 90 U.S. lawmakers urged Biden to impose sanctions on members of members of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government over anti-Palestinian violence in the West Bank.
