One of the reasons I'm so passionate about entrepreneurship is that it allows anyone to chart their own destiny. If you have a good idea and the willingness to pursue it, you're on your way to supporting yourself and adding value to our economy.

Draghi says the increase announced Wednesday by the White House would amount to just 70 additional U.S. troops on Italian soil and an air defense system that had already been planned.

That includes 2,000 divided among the Italian command of NATO in Bulgaria, its presence in Romania and staffing of air patrols over the Baltics. Another 8,000 are on standby in Italy “if eventually necessary.” ___ — Turkey lifts objections to Sweden, Finland joining NATO ahead of alliance summit — Biden, NATO to beef up force posture amid Russian aggression — Macron says Russia can’t win in Ukraine — The AP Interview: Spanish PM … [Read more...] about Live updates | Italy sees no NATO military escalation

Full details of these new ranges are available in this news story , but here I’m sharing my thoughts on a sample of the new flagship M9 (U27M90 to give it its full name) InZone monitor Sony sent me a few days ahead of the official product launch. Has Sony hit the monitor ground running, or does it … [Read more...] about Sony Inzone M9 Gaming Monitor Review: All Things Bright And Beautiful
