☆ For Today’s Anxious Teens, Outdoor Adventures Can Be a Cure
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-05 | by ( Katie Arnold | ) www.wsj.com time to read: +1 min

It’s a blazingly beautiful fall day, the Utah sky a cloudless bowl of cobalt blue arcing above 800-foot sandstone canyon walls on the Green River. If there’s a picture postcard of a desert river, we’re in it—a flotilla of colorful whitewater rafts bobbing along a twisting ribbon of silty water. Just ahead in a bend in the river is a narrow sandbar island, where we’ll camp for the night. We’ve been coming to rivers like the Green since our daughters, now 12 and 14, were babies. In the beginning, we went to the wilderness because my husband and I loved it and selfishly wanted them to love it, too.

WE LIVE in a depressing era of Instagram-driven food trends, when so many sandwiches have become grotesque aberrations—oozing, dripping, hulking, overstuffed monsters, designed to be photographed as much as or more than they were designed to be eaten. I propose a modest revolution in the face of this excess: a return to the notion that sandwiches are about the bread. We also live in a time when bakeries are producing high-quality bread in more places in the U.S., and possibly worldwide, than ever before. This isn’t just true of large cities on the coasts. Bakers across the country are laboring to provide better bread for their communities.

☆ Here's what I want to see before buying in a stock market that stumbled on solid bank earnings

I do not understand how it could be double the price of the stock when the TVB means that if you closed the bank that's what you would get. I know the stock of Wells Fargo (WFC) didn't do much after it reported. Now, I offer the story of these banks as a preamble to what I see happening in the stock market right now. I don't want to conflate a day of good bank earnings with a month of good stock prices.

I hit up my local Trader Joe's and bought as many award-winning foods as I could to see which ones deserved their hype. In other words, I agree with the many customers who have dubbed this their favorite Trader Joe's snack. As long as I live within reasonable driving distance of a Trader Joe's, I will continue to buy this loaf.

☆ Decisive Odegaard leads from front as Arsenal scale new heights
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-01 | by ( Rohith Nair | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +3 min

"(City's) Kevin De Bruyne sees it, Odegaard sees it. But I don't think any other player in the Premier League sees it open up." Having initially signed the midfielder on loan from Real Madrid, the 35 million euros ($37.46 million) Arsenal paid to make his move permanent now looks a steal. Odegaard's transformation has drawn parallels with former club captain Cesc Fabregas, who was tasked with leading the side at the tender age of 21 by ex-manager Arsene Wenger. "He has represented the values of this football club, the team... in the best possible way," Arteta said.

☆ I paid a stylist $300 to determine which colors look best on me — and I've been oozing with confidence in my work wardrobe ever since

Writer Jill Schildhouse recently did a $300 "color analysis" session to reimagine her work wardrobe. While setting up the appointment, Thurber instructed me to arrive without any makeup, because a fresh face without outside influences interfering is needed to identify your best colors. Next, she went through my entire 'winter' spectrum of 36 colors to see which were most flatteringThese are also known as my "wow" colors. Jill SchildhouseSince my color analysis, I've discovered that building a new wardrobe around my color palette and "wow" colors really simplifies shopping and getting dressed. Family and friends have asked what I'm doing differently or why I'm glowing, and wearing these "wow" colors in my social media posts has even increased engagement.

A few men’s looks appeared on the runway at Celine’s fall/winter 2023 womenswear show, which summoned the indie-rock spirit of the early 2000s. LOS ANGELES—Hedi Slimane of LVMH fashion brand Celine waved his (skinny, black) magic wand Thursday night, transforming Los Angeles’s Wiltern Theater into a portal to the early 2000s. For his fall/winter 2023 womenswear show (which included some men’s styles), the brand’s creative lead sent 87 looks oozing with the debauched, indie-rock spirit of that period down the runway-cum-stage, set to a looped version of “Hello Operator” by the White Stripes, co-produced by the polymath Mr. Slimane himself. After the fashion show, the real show began: performances by Iggy Pop, Interpol, the Kills (as DJs) and the era’s ultimate mascots, the Strokes, now in their 40s.

☆ Record Giroud, sublime Mbappe send France into quarter-finals with Poland win

"It's not been easy because they're a well-organised team and we had to make some positional changes at halftime," said Deschamps. Poland's poise came close to being rewarded in the 38th minute when the onrushing Zielinski's shot was parried by Lloris. Jakub Kaminski followed, only for his shot to be saved close to the goal-line by Raphael Varane. NINE WORLD CUP GOALSOne minute from the break, however, France's tactics paid off. Mbappe now has nine World Cup goals to his name, as many as Argentina's 35-year-old Lionel Messi, and became the first player to reach that mark before his 24th birthday.

☆ Argentina must avoid Australia upset to keep Messi's dream alive

DOHA, Dec 1 (Reuters) - Argentina are hot favourites to beat Australia on Saturday in pursuit of Lionel Messi's dream of winning a first World Cup, but they more than anyone have learned not to underestimate an underdog, especially the hard-battling Socceroos. "We've almost got no time to let it all sink in, enjoy it ... it's recovery, recovery, recovery," concurred Australia's assistant coach Rene Meulensteen. Anyone who thinks the match against Australia will be easy is wrong," Argentina's Scaloni said. Reaching the quarter-finals would be dreamland for Australia, but for Argentina it is a bare minimum national expectation as they seek a third World Cup trophy.

When a cyst on Aaron Bady’s dog, Pequod, started bleeding a few months ago, the Oakland, Calif., magazine editor says he called seven or eight animal hospitals and couldn’t get an appointment anytime soon. He ended up landing a spot with his old vet in Sacramento and driving the 9-year-old bichon frisé an hour-and-a-half for an exam. “Getting him seen was a nightmare,” said Mr. Bady, 43 years old. Pequod still had to wait another three weeks for an operation, with the wound oozing gunk the whole time, Mr. Bady said.

LUSAIL, Qatar, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Brazilian striker Neymar should be fine to continue in the World Cup despite limping off with a swollen ankle during his team's 2-0 victory over Serbia on Thursday, coach Tite said. "We are confident that Neymar will continue playing, he will continue playing in the World Cup," Tite told reporters, confessing that he was initially unaware of his striker's injury. Team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar said Brazil would wait 24-48 hours before assessing Neymar's injury. Later, however, he appeared to be in tears as he left the pitch with a visibly swollen ankle. That was reminiscent of the back injury which put Neymar out of the World Cup on home soil in 2014.

☆ Thanksgiving football could include tasty U.S. soccer treat

No, not that football, although Berhalter and his men who take on England in a tasty Group B clash on Friday hope that one day soccer might find a place at the table. For the moment Thanksgiving football belongs to American gridiron and the National Football League with teams like the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions in action. "These are the games where it's a high pressure privileged moment to step on the field against some of these guys. "When you get a result in a game like this people start to respect Americans a little bit more."

☆ Teenager Bellingham ignites England with dynamic display

England manager Gareth Southgate had come under fire during a six-game winless run in the Nations League ahead of the World Cup -- his sides lacking fluidity and forward thrust. It made Bellingham the youngest England scorer at a World Cup since Michael Owen in 1998 and the first player born in 2000 or later ever to score in the finals. Another former England midfielder Jermaine Jenas added: "Bellingham has been outrageous today. But if England are to go deep in Qatar, Bellingham could be the spark that ignites Southgate's team. "Wins take the pressure off, when you win games, you're at ease for a little bit longer," Bellingham said.
