☆ This restaurant started as a Mexican beach-side taco stand in a $3,000 VW bus—soon, it could come to a block near you

Today, it's a fast-casual Mexican restaurant chain with 15 locations across New York, Miami and Washington, D.C. That's a far cry from Tacombi's beach days, which started when Wolos bought his 1963 green VW "bus" in Mexico City for $3,000. Wolos converted the van into a mobile restaurant where he sold his first tacos, he told Total Food Service in November. He wrote a business plan for a restaurant chain concept called "Taco Rex" where he'd sell Mexican food that was, to him, actually Mexican. "I saw that Taco Bell, Chipotle and Old El Paso and all these legacy brands of Mexican food weren't connecting people to this side of Mexico."

Recon Team ST Idaho was tasked with locating and destroying a fuel pipeline inside Laos. Just shy of a month earlier, on Thanksgiving Day, ST Idaho had barely survived a cross-border operation in Cambodia. ST Idaho debated if it was possible to lose the NVA and continue their mission but ultimately deiced against it. ST Idaho adjusted its path and continued its slow progress, throwing grenades at any noise they heard, nightmares of previous close-calls on their minds. Thick black smoke choked and blinded ST Idaho, but the SOG operators could see enemy troops advancing close behind the flames.
☆ Harvard-educated deception expert: 4 red flags can show when people like Sam Bankman-Fried are lying

The answer is the latter, says Pamela Meyer , a Harvard-educated deception expert who is a certified fraud examiner and the author of the 2010 book "Liespotting: Proven Techniques to Detect Deception." Now, with Sam Bankman-Fried arrested on Monday by Bahamian authorities, the world is wondering if the FTX founder will follow in Holmes' footsteps as the next disgraced startup founder to end up behind bars . Such tactics should have been "a red flag, for sure, that he was deflecting a deep dive into the details" of FTX, Meyer says. You let them talk and talk and talk." This appears to be Bankman-Fried's current mode, Meyer says.

☆ The Fed may wreck one of the greatest booms in history of Main Street America

As interest rates rise, inflation lingers and home equity that many business founders use to get started shrinks, small business formations are doing something unexpected – they're rising. If the data persists, the resilience in small business formation points to a "new plateau" of activity that may add millions of jobs to the economy, Haltiwanger says. But the risks include the Fed itself choking off financial conditions so much that the small business boom is smothered. Danny Sweis opened his in the summer of 2022. If that lasts, that means 4 million per year, offset by 2.5 million lost as other small businesses close.

A Missouri inmate serving a life sentence for killing a man was linked to the cold case killings of four women who vanished more than 30 years ago after DNA evidence connected him to the crimes. The bodies were found in various locations in Lincoln, St. Louis, and St. Charles counties, O’Fallon police said in a Facebook statement. In April, the St. Charles County Crime Lab technicians found DNA from a small amount of viable evidence. "It may have taken a while, but your family member was not forgotten," St. Charles County Prosecuting Attorney Tim Lohmar said at a news conference on Monday. According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Muehlberg also expressed remorse for the killings, writing that he "must live with my past — the good and bad parts.
