Some said they knew of other contemporary instances of tubal ligations
with questionable consent — in people with severe disabilities, for
instance, or situations in which patients didn’t understand that the
procedure should be considered permanent — and said STAT’s
reporting uncovered a new dimension of this troubling pattern. For
many, it also showed the need for improvements in access to care,
reproductive counseling, education for physicians and patients, and
federal sterilization policy.“For far too long, racial inequities
and underrepresentation in our health system have contributed to
adverse health outcomes for Black women in the United States. Before
making major life decisions, every woman deserves to be fully informed
about her reproductive health options — anything less is
unacceptable,” said U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (D-Ill.), chair of the
Congressional Black Caucus Health Braintrust.

This was the experience of Kenvue at the height of the Covid-19
pandemic in 2020, when demand for much of its range of self-care and
essential health products spiked. Over the years, the consumer health
company has had to manage demand spikes resulting from not just the
pandemic, but also paediatric illness outbreaks. For producers of
critical supplies, meeting consumer needs is not only about maximising
profits, but also a matter of social responsibility. In the case of
Kenvue, any misstep along the chain can impact people who depend on
its products for everyday healthcare or jeopardise illness
treatment. Kenvue, therefore, has been working to mitigate the risks
and enhance the resilience of its supply chain by deploying critical
end-to-end initiatives as a hedge against future bottlenecks – much
like how one would attempt to reduce risk with an insurance policy. We
believe that this approach can set an example for other providers of
critical supplies, from pharmaceuticals to food, energy and water.

Look beyond the lions and elephants. Resist the cups of coffee and
tea. Hail instead Kenya’s latest success story: the firm but
luscious avocado pear, now climbing up the list of Kenya’s exports.
Already the biggest African avo-exporter, well ahead of South Africa,
Kenya has been expanding its sales to Europe and is trying to push
into the mass markets of India and China. “We are number five [in
the world] in avocado exports and can easily get to number one,”
says Simon Chelugui, Kenya’s minister for co-operatives.Mr Chelugui
may be behind the times. According to the latest estimate of the
UN’s Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), Kenya reached number
three in exports last year. It is still far behind Mexico, the
unchallenged giant, and Peru, the runner-up. But the volume of
Kenya’s exports shot up last year by 24%, the steepest climb of any
big producer.

“Iowe Columbia a lot,” says Robert Kraft, the billionaire owner of
the New England Patriots, who announced in April he would stop
donating to his alma mater amid the student protests spreading across
college campuses. “Columbia gave me a full scholarship when I really
needed it, and I’m loyal. But the [protesters] are not held
accountable for their words or actions, and the university is letting
them get away with it.”Columbia might lose millions from Kraft’s
decision, considering he has given at least $8 million to the
university over his lifetime. Luckily, the New York City school has
plenty of other deep-pocketed alumni, including cable magnate Rocco
Commisso, who tells Forbes he doesn’t plan to sit on his wallet.
“I think now is the time to give more, not less,” says Commisso.
“As alumni and wealthy people, we should commit ourselves to help
Columbia grow. This is a school that gave me money and opportunity.”

"I think a bank would say, 'Is this noise I need?'" explains John
Petrovski, a veteran of the commercial real estate industry who once
helped underwrite a Trump loan in Chicago. "You've got a guy who's
controversial. You've got a guy who's convicted of a felony
conviction. Whether you fall on the side that it's fake news or you
fall on the side that it's a real issue, either way, it's noise. And
banks don't need noise." Would Petrovski loan to Trump again? "It
would be a nonstarter," he says.Convictions aren't the only issue.
Several Trump companies have declared bankruptcy in the past, and the
former president still has a cloud of legal issues swirling around
him. Most of his net worth is tied up in shares of a social media
company with shaky financials, and much of the rest sits in illiquid
real estate holdings. Past lending documents required Trump to certify
that he was not a felon or under investigation.

And Apple’s next generation of software is expected to be packed
with an array of AI features likely to make its often-bumbling virtual
assistant Siri smarter, and make photos, music, texting — and
possibly even creating emojis on the fly — a more productive and
entertaining experience.AI mania is the main reason that Nvidia, the
dominant maker of the chips underlying the technology, has seen its
market value rocket from about $300 billion at the end of 2022
to about $3 trillion. The meteoric ride allowed Nvidia to briefly
surpass Apple last week as the second most valuable company in the
U.S. Microsoft earlier this year also eclipsed the iPhone maker on the
strength of its so-far successful push into AI.

For Pride month, the jobs site Indeed looked at how LGBTQ+ workers
and job seekers "face unique barriers" when looking for new
employment. The company's new survey highlights exactly how tricky
finding work can be for LGBTQ+ applicants, and offers some pointers
for successful recruiting practices. Doing so opens up a talent pool
that represents about 15 million people, roughly 5 percent of the
population. Other data show that LGBTQ+ workers can actually benefit
a company's bottom line.The biggest takeaway from Indeed's survey is
that the LGBTQ+ community is "increasingly selective" about choosing
where they work, and they are "prioritizing companies that demonstrate
clear and unwavering support for their rights." In fact 3 in 10 LGBQ+
staff have chosen to not apply for a job because of a "perceived or
actual lack of support for the LGBTQ+ community." That figure rises
to 50 percent among transgender applicants. And if a particular
company has no LGBTQ+ representation, 1 in 4 LGBTQ+ workers said
they wouldn't consider applying for a role there.

Typically, small to medium enterprises (SMEs) don’t have the
resources to hunker down at an annual strategy retreat or to stop
everything they’re doing to respond to unexpected emergencies or
events that threaten the bottom line. This puts them at a disadvantage
compared to their larger competitors. This article shows how AI is
proving to be a transformative force for small and medium enterprises.
The authors describe three crisis scenarios in which AI-driven
brainstorming and scenario generation enabled SMEs to break free from
their built-in limitations to produce innovative strategies.

Will artificial intelligence take our jobs? As AI raises new fears
about a jobless future, it’s helpful to consider how economists’
understanding of technology and labor has evolved. For decades,
economists were relatively optimistic, and pointed out that previous
waves of technology had not led to mass unemployment. But as income
inequality rose in much of the world, they began to revise their
theories. Newer models of technology’s affects on the labor market
account for the fact that it absolutely can displace workers and lower
wages. In the long run, technology does tend to raise living
standards. But how soon and how broadly? That depends on two factors:
Whether technologies create new jobs for people to do and whether
workers have a voice in technology’s deployment.

Rina has wide-ranging cultural tastes. She calls Laurie Colwin’s The
Lone Pilgrim “a revelation”; Chris Whitley’s “Dust Radio” a
“sweat-soaked, apocalyptic track”; and the television series Mr. &
Mrs. Smith a “sharp and honest” meditation on marriage. Then
there’s Steven Millhauser, a writer whom Rina recently came across:
“My goodness. Why don’t people talk about him more?”A quiet song
that I love, and a loud song that I love: I feel about Chris Whitley
the way some people feel about Princess Diana; taken by lung cancer at
age 45, he left behind more than a dozen strange, beautiful albums,
each with something fresh and vital to say about the blues. His 1991
debut, Living With the Law, hit me like a train the first time I
encountered it, and it still does, 10 years and 1,000 listens later.
It’s easy to get swept up by the sheer gorgeousness of “Big Sky
Country,” but don’t sleep on “Dust Radio,” a sweat-soaked,
apocalyptic track that starts off spare and opens up into something
seismic.

On June 12, Russia celebrates its Independence Day. The commemoration
was instituted by President Boris Yeltsin in 1992 to a collective
shrug—“Who did Russia declare independence from?” people asked.
But in the early 2000s, President Vladimir Putin elevated the day to a
major national celebration, accompanied by a cornucopia of
flag-waving. For the past two years, “Russia Day,” as it is
popularly known, has gone beyond reenactments of historic military
victories to celebrate the country’s ongoing invasion of
Ukraine—complete with charity auctions and motor rallies in support
of the troops, and flash mobs to show national unity branded with a
hashtag that translates as #WeAreRussiaWeAreTogether.Propaganda aside,
Russia does seem surprisingly unified. Despite the war’s heavy human
toll, estimated by the United Kingdom’s Defence Intelligence to be
as high as 500,000, and near-total isolation from the West, Russian
society has not unraveled. On the contrary, it appears to be
functioning better than before the war and shows clear signs of
once-elusive social cohesion. One explanation for this
paradox—national thriving amid unfolding calamity—is that, unlike
Western states, which are designed to advance the interests of their
citizens, Russian society operates with one purpose in mind: to serve
the interests of its belligerent state.

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=14943&nl=daily]
In January, the computer scientist Geoffrey Hinton gave a lecture to
Are We Doomed?, a course at the University of Chicago. He spoke via
Zoom about whether artificial intelligence poses an existential
threat. He was cheerful and expansive and apparently certain that
everything was going to go terribly wrong, and soon. "I timed my life
perfectly," Hinton, who is seventy-six, told the class. "I was born
just after the end of the Second World War. I was a teen-ager before
there was AIDS. And now I'm going to die before the end."I was getting
a sense of how Hinton processed existential threat: like the Fool in
"King Lear." And I knew how I processed it: in a Morse code of anxiety
and calm, but with less intensity than I think about my pets or about
Anna's Swedish ginger thins. But how did these young people take in,
or not take in, all the chatter about A.I. menaces, dying oceans, and
nuclear arsenals, in addition to the generally pretty convincing
end-times mood over all? I often hear people say that the youth give
them hope for the future. This obscures the question of whether young
people themselves have hope, or even think in such terms.

This is the core contention in Yanis Varoufakis’s new book,
Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism. Varoufakis insists that the
digital platforms have become so powerful, so ubiquitous, so
fundamental to the working of the global economy that they have
effectively replaced capitalism as it has long been understood.The
“cloudalists,” as he calls them, have more in common with feudal
lords than captains of industry. Their businesses focus on rent
capture, rather than competition for profits. Their interests run
counter to the digital proletariat (tech workers) and digital serfs
(platform users). With this book, he attempts to activate the class
consciousness of those of us toiling in the Facebook and Twitter
fields, providing free content from which the cloudalists capture
rent.

To Israelis, October 7, 2023, is the worst day in their country’s
75-year history. Never before have so many of them been massacred and
taken hostage on a single day. Thousands of heavily armed Hamas
fighters managed to break through the Gaza Strip’s fortified border
and into Israel, rampaging unimpeded for hours, destroying several
villages, and committing gruesome acts of brutality before Israeli
forces could regain control. Israelis have compared the attack to the
Holocaust; Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described Hamas as
“the new Nazis.” In response, the Israel Defense Forces have
pursued an open-ended military campaign in Gaza driven by rage and the
desire for revenge. Netanyahu promises that the IDF will fight Hamas
until it achieves “total victory,” although even his own military
has been hard put to define what this means. He has offered no clear
idea of what should happen when the fighting stops, other than to
assert that Israel must maintain security control of all of Gaza and
the West Bank.For Palestinians, the Gaza war is the worst event they
have experienced in 75 years. Never have so many of them been killed
and uprooted since the nakba, the catastrophe that befell them during
Israel’s war of independence in 1948, when hundreds of thousands of
Palestinians were forced to give up their homes and became refugees.
Like the Israelis, they also point to terrible acts of violence: by
late March, Israel’s military campaign had taken the lives of tens
of thousands of Palestinians, among them thousands of children, and
rendered well over a million homeless. As the Palestinians see it, the
Israeli offensive is part of a larger plan to incorporate all
Palestinian lands into the Jewish state and get them to abandon Gaza
entirely—an idea that has in fact been raised by some members of
Netanyahu’s government. The Palestinians also hold on to the
illusion of return, the principle that they will one day be able to
reclaim their historic homes in Israel itself—a kind of Palestinian
Zionism that, like Israel’s maximalist aspirations, can never come
true.

High up in the mostly uninhabitable stretches of the Himalaya
Mountains, the world’s two largest armies are facing off. The
tensions at the disputed Chinese-Indian border, where around 100,000
troops are garrisoned at remote outposts, rarely makes international
headlines. But it is one of the world’s most dangerous flash points.
In 2020, clashes at the border left over 20 soldiers dead, marking the
most significant fighting between China and India since the two
countries fought a war in 1962.Tensions at the roof of the world have
persisted ever since. In the last four years, both sides have sought
to build up infrastructure and position yet more troops along the
border. Just as China spars with many of its neighbors over competing
territorial claims, the unresolved boundary dispute with India is a
great source of volatility. The annual threat assessment released in
March by the U.S. director of national intelligence warned that
sporadic encounters between Indian and Chinese troops “risk
miscalculation and escalation into armed conflict.”

Neanderthals stopped roaming Earth around 40,000 years ago. Yet as
time passes, new technologies are helping scientists learn more about
Homo neanderthalensis, how they might have lived, and what
similarities they may have shared with Homo sapiens. There’s even a
debate about what Neanderthals sounded like.  In the 1980s,
scientists discovered the skeleton of a Neanderthal male in Kebara
Cave, Israel. Known as Kebara 2, the skeleton was well intact and
allowed scientists to examine the neck bones. In particular, they
found that the hyoid bone was similar to humans, which prompted
researchers to think that Neanderthals were capable of speech.

And incredibly, it's even higher than what 2023 was on this date."
Record high oceanic heat also is an issue in the Gulf of Mexico, and
in the tropical Atlantic as a whole. Mcnoldy finds this quite
concerning. "First, it's a curiosity without a great explanation," he
told me in an email. "But second, it's high-octane jet fuel for
hurricanes. It raises the bar for their peak intensity and increases
the odds of rapid intensification."

After a few teases and years of reserved implementations of machine
learning, Apple is expected to make WWDC 2024 all about AI. But based
on reports published ahead of the event, what the company has in store
won’t be as revolutionary an approach as many are hoping for.When
Siri launched on the iPhone 4S in 2011, Apple was ahead of the game.
Voice-driven AI assistants had been demoed (Siri was technically an
acquisition), but Apple was the first tech company to ship one in a
mass-consumer product. In the Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa-filled
years that followed, Apple’s updates have been more modest. Machine
learning and natural language processing are all over iOS, and Siri
runs on-device, but flashy displays of AI haven’t materialized. With
natural-sounding, increasingly capable-seeming chatbots like ChatGPT
now an option everyone is aware of and can access, Apple has fallen
behind.

The release of Die Hard was an earth-shattering moment for
Hollywood’s blockbuster industrial complex. Bruce Willis, a TV star,
had fronted a major action movie with a remarkably straightforward
premise and turned it into a smash hit. And, just a year after
Predator, John McTiernan cemented himself as one of the best action
filmmakers to ever pick up a camera. Even though few have succeeded in
making Die Hard happen again (including Willis), it’s easy to
understand why so many have tried.The decade after Die Hard was rife
with movies that tried to mimic its simple formula — a man gets
trapped somewhere with a bunch of hostages, and has to save them.
Cliffhanger, Under Siege, Sudden Death, Air Force One, and Skyscraper,
among many others, all used elements of that formula to try
replicating Die Hard’s tremendous success. Among all of the
knock-offs, it was Speed that cracked the code. The movie, infamously
described as Die Hard on a bus, proved it was possible to make Die
Hard again in a way that mostly worked.

For a mascot who’s one home pregnancy test away from a merchandising

Olympic Games he takes is an innovative masterpiece, but it’s safe
to assume you’ll have a decent time if you fork over 60 bucks for a

that axiom was tested with the Nintendo 64’s Mario Golf. Mario had
already karted, partied, and smashed by 1999, but he was still a
platforming star, not a sports icon. He hadn’t picked up a golf club

Ishey Namgail has dedicated his entire life to an art form that’s
been in his family for generations. Working out of his centuries-old
workshop in India’s mountainous Ladakh region, the 83-year-old
Namgail crafts ornate metalworks using the same techniques as his

master of his trade, he’s one of the last artisans of his kind on
the planet. For his short film The Teapot Maker, the UK director
Duncan Parker travelled to Namgail’s remote village of Chilling to
capture his intricate process, as well as its exquisite results. This
includes the creation of a copper teapot with a dragon-shaped handle
traditionally used to serve kings or high-ranking monks. And, as
Parker documents, even though Namgail’s craft is very much
endangered, its flame will likely burn for at least two more
generations, as his son and grandson have taken up the family trade.
