Famed sex and relationships therapist Esther Perel shared how to ask better questions. Esther Perel, a famed sex and relationships therapist and podcast host , told Business Insider that common first date questions like “What do you do?” and “Do you like your job?” are recipes for tedium. Ask questions that invite storiesPerel believes the best first date questions prompt the other person to tell a story — especially if it’s one they didn’t expect to tell. AdvertisementOne way to do that is to ask and answer questions that don’t make you out to be perfect. From the questions you ask to the activity you do, a date should be “a story that unfolds,” Perel said.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — For Dejan Milojević, the Golden State Warriors and Atlanta Hawks stood united on one sideline near their team benches and listened as the Serbian national anthem played in his honor. Golden State returned to the court for the first time since losing its beloved assistant coach last week in Salt Lake City. Two members of the Hawks were right next to Warriors coach Steve Kerr as he spoke of Milojević's profound impact on every person he encountered. Hawks assistant coach Igor Kokoskov was the Serbian national team coach and hired Milojević onto his staff. Obviously different from the Warriors team and all of their players, coaches, and their organization but, being Serbian there’s a unique connection that those guys have in this instance.”___

CNN —Jacob Elordi is taking a step – and a bit of a tumble – toward preparing for his “Saturday Night Live” hosting debut in a new promo for the upcoming episode this weekend. After many hilariously feeble attempts, Elordi finally manages to take that step, but tumbles into a full face-plant right on the stage. Johnson and Hernandez are then seen fleeing the area, trying to pretend nothing happened. Splayed out on the floor, Elordi lifts his head just high enough to say, “I’m good!”The upcoming episode of “SNL” is the first show of 2024. Elordi will make his hosting debut alongside musical guest – and star of the new “Mean Girls” reboot – Reneé Rapp.

America is the sixth-most-expensive place in the world to build subways and trolleys. The solutions will cost trillions of dollars and require a pace of building unseen in America since World War II. Perhaps the single most pressing question we face today is: How do we make America build again? "For this class of projects, federal environmental laws are more the exception." The prospect of overhauling our hard-won environmental laws might feel like sacrilege to anyone who cares about the Earth.

With the introduction of new laws, such as the CHIPS and Science Act and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the Biden administration has been betting big on industrial policies to bring manufacturers back to the United States. This isn't the first time the U.S. government has spent tax dollars to guide industrial policy. If successful, industrial policies can potentially lead to big payoffs. "An example would be the development of mRNA vaccines for Covid," said Ed Gresser, vice president and director for trade and global markets at the Progressive Policy Institute.
