- A + A LONDON (May 16): European stocks slipped on Monday and Wall Street was set for a lower open, as investor sentiment struggled to recover from last week's sell off amid fears of a slowdown in economic growth. Global shares hit their lowest point in 18 months last week, with investors worried that rising interest rates to counter high inflation will damage the global economy. Unexpectedly weak economic data kept from China kept those worries in centre stage on Monday. April retail sales plunged 11.1% on the year, almost twice the fall forecast, as full or partial Covid-19 lockdowns were imposed in dozens of cities. Industrial output dropped 2.9% when analysts had looked for a slight increase. At 1104 GMT, the MSCI world equity index, which tracks shares in 50 countries, was up around 0.1% on the day, struggling to recover from last week's lows. Europe's STOXX 600 was down 0.2%, while London's FTSE 100 was down flat. US stock index futures pointed to a … [Read more...] about Stock markets struggle as fears over economy grow

Hamdi Ulukaya gave his first speech at the age of 20. The son of Turkish nomads was nervous, but he told the couple dozen people there with him in a small town near the Euphrates River that he was going to write about injustices and human rights violations. He'd publish a newspaper to confront political injustice. "I had no idea how to publish a newspaper," he says. "I did it anyway." It was that newspaper that got him in trouble with the government, he explains, causing him to flee Turkey, immigrate to the United States, found the yogurt company Chobani, and begin what would become a coalition of more than 200 companies that aim to find employment for and support refugees around the globe . On May 13, Ulukaya stood in front of a crowd of new graduates of Northeastern University at Fenway Park in Boston, and exhorted them to make a difference in the world as he has. Looking at their 20-year-old faces, he said, he saw himself at 20: "I can tell all of you have the same fire … [Read more...] about Chobani Founder Hamdi Ulukaya: ‘Innovation Doesn’t Happen When You’re Comfortable’

“Joe Pickett” is a very promising show. The first two episodes of the series based on a book series from C.J. Box are out on Paramount+, and I decided to fire them up. The plot of the series is pretty straightforward. (REVIEW: ‘ Yellowstone ’ Season 4 Finale Shocks Fans With Major Death) The show follows a Wyoming game warden with a dark past, but an inherent urge to do things the right way. When one of his rivals is found dead on his property, it’s immediately clear there’s a large and sinister conspiracy playing out. What does the show remind me of? There are some obvious “ Yellowstone ” vibes, but it’s not even within spitting distance as being as good. View this post on Instagram A post shared by cjboxauthor (@cjboxnovels) While “ Yellowstone ” and other Taylor Sheridan shows are incredibly serious, “Joe Pickett” liked to inject a bizarre sense of humor into some scenes, specifically a … [Read more...] about REVIEW: ‘Joe Pickett’ Has Lots Of Potential, But Is Far From Being A Great Show

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin You might be familiar with psilocybin mushrooms , ayahuasca , and MDMA , but a lesser known (and rather misunderstood) psychedelic substance, ibogaine , is gaining attention thanks to the proliferation of ibogaine treatment clinics south of the border. Ibogaine is derived from the root of the iboga shrub, which grows in Central Africa and is indigenous to Gabon. There, it is used among people who practice Bwiti, a spiritual discipline that has been passed down for hundreds if not thousands of years. In Bwiti traditions, iboga is used in initiation rites, and is thought to allow those who take it to meet with deceased ancestors and diagnose illness. When administered safely, ibogaine can have profound, life-altering effects. While people living in North America may not be as familiar with ibogaine as they are with other psychedelic drugs, those that do know about this powerful alkaloid tend to consider its … [Read more...] about Ibogaine: Busting Myths With Beond’s Dr. Felipe Malacara

Agence France-Presse (The Jakarta Post) PREMIUM Beijing   ● Tue, May 17 2022 China's retail sales and factory output slumped to their lowest levels in around two years, official data showed Monday, capturing the dismal economic fallout from Beijing's zero-COVID policy. The world's second-largest economy has persisted with strict virus measures, choking up global supply chains as dozens of Chinese cities — including key business hub Shanghai — grapple with restrictions.

Jorge Uzon and Maggy Donaldson (Agence France-Presse) (The Jakarta Post) PREMIUM Buffalo, United States   ● Tue, May 17 2022 Grieving Buffalo residents in the United States held vigils Sunday after a white gunman who officials have branded "pure evil" shot dead 10 people at a grocery store in a "racist" rampage. The police commissioner for the US city in western New York, Joseph Gramaglia, told reporters the 18-year-old suspect did "reconnaissance" on the predominantly black area surrounding Tops Friendly Market and drove there from his hometown of Conklin, more than 322 kilometers away. Wearing heavy body armor and wielding an AR-15 assault rifle, the shooter killed 10 people and wounded three others, almost all of them black, before threatening to turn the gun on himself. Police said officers talked the gunman down before arresting him. to Read Full Story SUBSCRIBE NOW Starting from IDR 55,500/month Unlimited access to our web and app content … [Read more...] about US in mourning, outraged after ‘racist’ mass shooting
