Informational interviews can be a valuable way to grow your career. "You show up, you share your story, you ask questions about their background," says Gorick Ng, Harvard career advisor and creator of the "How To Say It" flashcard series for professional communication. You can reach out to people you know directly"First degree connections are people that you already know," says Ng. Again, you're jogging people's memory of who you are (if they need it), you're being clear about why you're reaching out and who you'd like to be connected with and you're explaining why you're reaching out to them, specifically. "You're making a super targeted request that you're super serious about because you've done your homework," says Ng.

Data center operators may cut supply agreements directly with natural gas companies to meet the growing power demands of the artificial intelligence boom, CNBC's Jim Cramer predicted Wednesday. In fact, the CEO of oil-and-gas producer Coterra Energy told Cramer the company is considering whether to do just that. However, many energy industry experts think natural gas also will play a critical part in meeting AI-related power needs . Those dynamics explain why Cramer asked Jorden whether data-center companies should strike multiyear agreements with natural gas companies that lock in supply of the commodity at consistent prices. You know, there's a lot of natural gas in this country ready to be brought to market," Jorden told Cramer.

Investors looking to bet on another rally for major tech stocks should take a look at some options trades that are curiously cheap, according to Goldman Sachs. The "Magnificent Seven" was the key to the stock market rally last year, but the group has splintered a bit in recent months. For example, investors have had a hard time betting on Tesla , which is down nearly 30% in 2024. "We see the potential for more volatility over the next two months than is priced into TSLA options. The strategy works by picking a strike price, typically above the current stock price, and expiration date.

Here are a few other tips from career experts for new grads to consider. Your field might also have all sorts of professional associations — for examples, in accounting there's the American Accounting Association; in dentistry there's the National Dental Association. "And that is such a great way to grow your skills and your network and your reputation," says career coach Phoebe Gavin. Some of these associations may have job boards, but they're also a great way to meet people who could open those kinds of doors down the line. Both those clubs you were in and the professional associations offer good opportunities to contact people for informational interviews.

However, during the renovation, we eventually went over budget and realized we should have done a few things differently. However, the unexpected cost of installing a new circuit board and wiring for the range cooker made us reluctant to add anything else to our tab. Matt NgI wished we had the time and space to shop around more, as we didn't feel the consultant we worked with provided the ideas to really make smarter use of our kitchen space. With all that said, we still adore our kitchen, not least our excellent range cooker and new flooring — our old slate tiles were hard, uncomfortable, and horrible to clean.

A Forest Retreat in ‘Tokyo’s Backyard’

Although the two had regularly worked in the country (their firm is currently renovating Tokyo’s Ritz-Carlton), neither of them ever imagined they’d settle permanently in Japan. Over the course of three years, however, they moved out of their Hong Kong apartment, sold their home in Taipei, Taiwan, and bought the last available piece of land next to their existing Japanese property, just over an acre crowded with cherry, pine and larch trees that flash gold, green or gray depending on the season. The pair had considered other Japanese locales where they could one day retire — snowy Niseko; Hakone, by the sea — yet it was ultimately in Karuizawa, Ng says, that they wanted to prove, after years of championing glamour and shine, that they could make someplace “supertranquil” for themselves.

Halfpoint Images | Moment | Getty ImagesA global mental health crisis is on the horizon — dementia. While a healthy body can mitigate dementia risks, a healthy mind is no less important. "We do know [that] people who have cumulative mental health symptoms during their lifetime, actually [have] an increased risk of dementia," said Singham. "If we see symptomatic improvement [to one's mental health] throughout the life course, then that can decrease your chances of having dementia eventually." "The other thing I would encourage young people to do is have a very disciplined, good sleep hygiene because our brains really really need to rest," Ng said.

Once a powerful local Congolese leader, Lusinga Iwa Ng’ombe fought back against Belgian colonial invaders in the late 19th century. He was such a thorn in their side that Émile Storms, who commanded Belgian troops in the region, predicted his head would “eventually end up in Brussels with a little label — it would not be out of place in a museum.”That is exactly what happened. Troops of Mr. Storms killed and decapitated Mr. Lusinga in 1884, and his skull ended up in a box in the Brussels-based Institute for Natural Sciences, along with over 500 human remains taken from former Belgian colonies. His descendants are struggling to have his remains returned, their efforts unfolding against the backdrop of a larger debate about Europe’s responsibility for the colonial atrocities, reparations and restitution of plundered heritage.

A former Societe Generale trader who was fired for unauthorized risky bets has lambasted the French bank for making him a "scapegoat" and failing to take its share of responsibility for missing the trades. A SocGen spokesperson declined to comment on the post, but provided a statement on the pair's dismissal. Kataria said the trades were auto-booked and a "daily email was sent to the entire group mentioning the trades have been reconciled." "It's very easy for other people to say that we were not aware of the trades done by me," he wrote. "Trading Industry is so big but there are no rules or regulations which fight for trader justice," he said.

Super Micro, one of the vendors that builds Nvidia-based servers, released quarterly results on Tuesday after market close.
