To spare you a bad experience, Ridgway told BI her top red flags to look out for at a bar so you know when to make a beeline toward the exit. But if you're rolling up to a "craft cocktail bar," there shouldn't be a swarm of low-quality spirits. Ridgway said it's common for a bartender to join regulars for a sip of something boozy throughout the night. "I don't go to a bar to have someone not fully in control of their faculties mix me a drink," she told BI. A dismissive bartender is a tough sell for RidgwayWhen you go out to a bar, you're handing over some of your hard-earned dollars for the beverage of your choice.

☆ Dream Team dreaming: How great can this U.S. men’s basketball team still be?

Still, as the U.S. men’s team starts its Olympic run Sunday, it begins with a roster that has drawn countless comparisons to the Dream Team. On paper, the U.S. men’s team is arguably the best team assembled since 1992. Durant is the most prolific scorer in U.S. men’s history and could, if the Americans win gold in Paris, become the most decorated Olympic men’s basketball player. A loss in the knockout stages, when there are no more second chances, and a Dream Team redux becomes a historic nightmare. In that scenario, the U.S. men’s team would be remembered forever, even if not quite held in the same reverence as the Dream Team.

In the mid-1990s the right was already moving toward climate change denial. The characters’ silence is louder at a time when in real life many Republican leaders continue to deny climate change is a problem. The current Republican platform doesn’t mention global warming at all, and GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump has denied the scientific consensus on climate change.

Swan Gallet/WWD/Getty ImagesRapper A$AP Rocky, too, made a statement for his Paris Fashion Week debut — a secret show for his label AWGE, which launched earlier this year. On the runway, models marched with their heads covered by American eagle flags, wore slogans like “Don’t be Dumb” and carried plastic bags filled with cash. The latest Comme des Garçon collection featured lashings of Barbie pink and frothy tulle skorts.
