☆ Netflix 'Christmas Carol' reboot 'Spirited' misses Elon Musk irony

The Americanized “Spirited” is available on Apple TV+, while the British-based “Scrooge: A Christmas Carol” debuted on Netflix on Friday. Originally published in 1843, Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” was that era’s equivalent of a bestseller, with 13 editions published in the first year of print alone. (“The Muppet’s Christmas Carol,” for example, cast perpetual hero Kermit T. Frog as Cratchit rather than Scrooge.) The animation is vibrant, capturing the feel of the old Claymation-style Christmas TV specials. It is a bizarre and somewhat grotesque rewriting of the story’s moral; it's “A Christmas Carol” seen through the lens of bothsiderism.

The US does not have a national standard on paid sick leave, a rarity among industrialized nations. “The most disempowered workers – who are low-wage workers – don’t have an opportunity to demand paid sick leave from their employers,” he said. Railroad workers’ battleWhile the vast majority of union members have paid sick days, the freight railroad workers do not. Meanwhile, a growing number of states, cities and counties have been enacting paid sick leave laws in recent years. Advocates see the railroad workers’ battle as an opportunity to renew interest in expanding the availability of paid sick leave.

☆ Outperforming asset manager picks 3 global retailers to short amid a fall in consumer spending
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-28 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Shares of mass market retailers will fall as profit margins are squeezed, and consumers curtail spending next year, according to Plurimi Wealth's chief investment officer. Selling shares "short" means borrowing shares through a broker to sell them immediately with a plan to repurchase them when the price is lower. In such an environment, mass market retailers that benefit from discretionary spending will see their revenues decline. While investors are split over the health of the American consumer, European shoppers are mostly expected to curtail their spending habits next year. Elsewhere in Europe, economists are also expecting a recession for the first half of next year that will impact discretionary spending.

Dickens said one of the injured victims was in critical condition, which police confirmed. Grant said the incident report with the specific ages of the injured victims is still being processed.

☆ 'Spirited' review: Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds try their hands (and feet) at musical comedy in 'A Christmas Carol' spoof
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-17 | by ( Review Brian Lowry | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

CNN —For those wondering who would build a giant holiday musical-comedy around Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds, the “produced by Will Ferrell” credit provides a helpful clue. “Spirited” tries turning “A Christmas Carol” on its head, and while it’s big and boisterous, the movie (hitting theaters before Apple TV+) isn’t consistently irreverent enough to feel like much more than a streaming stocking stuffer. Of course, playing with Charles Dickens’ oft-told tale brings a lot of shorthand to the proceedings, with Ferrell as the Ghost of Christmas Present, who stumbles upon Reynolds’ fast-talking Clint Briggs, a media consultant introduced trying to commoditize Christmas. Present identifies him as a candidate to become their next “perp,” offered a Scrooge-like shot at redemption. “Spirited” premieres November 11 in select US theaters and November 18 on Apple TV+.

☆ The housing-affordability crisis is sparking startup founders, Wall Streeters, and nonprofit leaders to try to offer new solutions

Some innovations may help homebuyers, renters, and investors cope with the affordability crisis. 100 People Transforming Business is an annual list highlighting people across industries who are changing the way the world does business. Mortgage rates have topped 7%, the highest rate in 20 years, which means homebuyers can afford less house for their money. That's why many people and companies in the real-estate industry are trying to help homebuyers, renters, and investors cope with an affordability crisis. That's where the Washington, DC, nonprofit Grounded Solutions Network comes in: It says it helps repurpose "vacant space into vibrant space."

The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) said on Tuesday that its manufacturing PMI fell to 50.2 in October from 50.9 in September. China's Caixin/S&P Global manufacturing PMI stood at 49.2 in October, up from 48.1 in September. The private sector survey was in line with an official PMI released on Monday that showed China's factory activity unexpectedly fell in October. Japan's au Jibun Bank Japan Manufacturing PMI fell to 50.7 in October from September's 50.8 final, marking the weakest growth since January last year. India was an outlier with factory activity expanding at a stronger pace in October as demand remained solid.

☆ Louisiana native, author Ernest Gaines to appear on US stamp

Gaines’ stamp offers an impressive representation of the man I knew and admired, and it reminds me of the immeasurable grace, strength and character he displayed throughout his life and through his words,” said Dr. Joseph Savoie, UL-Lafayette president. The book that earned widespread notice for Gaines, “The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman,” is a first-person narrative of a fictional 110-year-old woman born into slavery. Published in 1971, the novel’s inspiration was Augusteen Jefferson, Gaines’ disabled aunt who helped raise him. “The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman” and “A Gathering of Old Men” (1984) became honored television movies. Gaines’ novels, which have drawn comparisons to the writings of William Faulkner and Charles Dickens, have been published in at least 17 languages.

☆ Oracle insiders say that even its all-important cloud unit is being dragged down by new restrictions on hiring — a major turnaround for a unit that usually gets whatever it wants
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-24 | by ( Jessica Xing | Ellen Thomas | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

Oracle has restricted hiring at OCI, telling recruiters to stay away from expensive areas like SF. Its marketing and customer experience, or CX, divisions were among the hardest-hit units, but the company's cloud division, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure , or OCI, appeared to remain untouched. The restrictions inside OCI in particular follow a period of rapid hiring in 2021, when cloud firms raced to give candidates lucrative packages to win talent, the employee said. Business from OCI, especially with the addition of TikTok, has helped grow Oracle's revenue by 5% in the most recent fiscal year. Additionally, the firm's unwillingness to spend on labor has cost Oracle before, especially as its marketing cloud unit continues to lag behind competitor Salesforce.

Oli Scarff | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesLONDON - U.K. lenders Virgin Money, Halifax and Skipton Building Society pulled some of their mortgage deals to customers after the tumult in British bond markets. Virgin Money and Skipton Building Society temporarily paused mortgage offers for new customers, while Halifax — owned by the Lloyds Banking Group — is planning to halt any mortgage products with fees where lower interest rates are usually offered. Skipton Building Society said they had paused their products in order to "reprice following the market response over recent days." Markets have begun pricing in a base rate rise to as high as 6% for next year, from 2.25% currently, raising concerns among mortgage lenders and borrowers. "Households refinancing a two-year fixed rate mortgage in the first half of next year will see monthly repayments jump to about £1,490 early next year, from £863 when they took on the mortgage two years prior."

Obiceiuri ciudate ale unor scriitori faimoși: 50 de cești de cafea pe zi sau scrisul cu capul în josCreativitatea şi inspiraţia se pot lăsa de multe ori aşteptate, marii scriitori nefiind nici ei scutiţi de blocaje, pe care le depăşeau în diferite moduri. Unii scriau doar întinşi în pat, în timp ce alţii aveau nevoie de băutură pentru a aşterne cuvintele pe foaia de hârtie. Vă prezentăm în continuare unele obiceiuri ciudate ale unor scriitori faimoși, precum Victor Hugo, Honore de Balzac sau Virginia Woolf. La cealaltă extremă, Charles Dickens, Ernest Hemingway, Philip Roth, Lewis Carroll sau Virginia Woolf alegeau să scrie doar stând în picioare. Şi Virginia Woolf folosea cerneală diferită, optând pentru nuanţe precum verde, violet sau albastru.
