☆ Los Angeles Works to Build Its Dance Muscles
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-06 | by ( Robin Pogrebin | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Los Angeles may not be thought of as a dance town, but it has a rich legacy. It was here, in 1915, that the modern dance pioneers Ruth St. Denis and her husband Ted Shawn, established the Denishawn school and company, shaping and showcasing the first generation of American modern dancers, including Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey and Charles Weidman. Lester Horton, one of the first choreographers to insist on a racially integrated company, established the Lester Horton Dance Theater here in 1946, a pioneering stage dedicated to modern dance. But for all the talent Los Angeles has attracted over the years, and its success in founding other performing arts institutions, the city has struggled to establish lasting dance companies able to attract and maintain audiences and patronage. It has also just entered an agreement with the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, a larger theater, to perform there.

Some things have inexplicable staying power. And for nostalgic millennials, there is “Gilmore Girls.” The show ended its seven-year run on the WB and CW networks in 2007, yet viewers keep returning to the familiar comfort of the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Conn., where the series was set. Netflix recorded 500 million viewing hours for the show from January to June of last year, surpassing hits like “Seinfeld” and “Stranger Things,” and data released on Monday by the research firm Nielsen showed that “Gilmore Girls” was among the Top 10 most-watched shows across the major streaming platforms in 2023. The show, which concluded the month before the iPhone was introduced, is even finding a younger audience on TikTok, where users post scenes they love and argue about their favorite romantic partners for every character. Yanic Truesdale, who played the grumpy inn concierge Michel, lovingly called it “the show that will never die.”

In today's big story, we're looking at how much Americans spend on rent and why cheap properties are so hard to come by. And now a new Harvard study demonstrates how costly the rental market has become, Business Insider's Pete Syme writes. Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies estimated 12.1 million American households spend more than half their income on rent and utilities. That number grows to 22.4 million households for those spending more than 30% of their income on rent and utilities. Meanwhile, experts predict the housing market will reverse course this year as housing inventory increases and mortgage rates fall.

Amidst the audience, actor Jamie Dornan was spotted, amusedly gazing at fleeting images of himself woven into pulp fiction video collages that spanned from paparazzi shots to art history and social media. LOEWE’S SOCIAL MEDIA COLLAGECentral to this digital-age collection was the theme of divergence. Anderson skillfully eschewed the idea of one single aesthetic, presenting a full, fabulous collage of social media characters, each uniquely styled — and seemingly caught off-guard, as they might be by the lens of TMZ or Us Weekly. His latest display shows how the ever-evolving dynamics of social media and celebrity are reshaping modern masculinity.

Investors are continuing to pour cash into money market funds, thanks to their juicy 5% yields. In the month of January, money market funds typically see outflows after having big inflows in December, she said. That's because there is generally a lag between the cuts and money market fund yields coming down. Still, even as yields in money market funds eventually go down, they will still be attractive, said Peter Crane, founder of Crane Data. Typically, retail investors have an allocation of about 5% or 10% in cash, including money market funds.

Such worries flared after Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack into southern Israel but subsided in recent weeks.

WASHINGTON, Nov 29 (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives is expected to vote on Friday on whether to expel scandal-plagued Republican George Santos, who faces criminal corruption charges and new accusations that he misspent campaign money, according to Republican aides. The motion requires a two-thirds majority in the House, which Republicans control by a narrow 222-213 majority. Santos' district, which includes a small slice of New York City and some of its eastern suburbs, is seen as competitive. The bipartisan Ethics Committee on Nov. 16 released a report on allegations that Santos committed campaign finance fraud. A vote on Nov. 1 to expel Santos failed because Republicans need Santos' seat to protect their narrow House majority, which empowers them to block much of Democratic President Joe Biden's legislative agenda.
