Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin The first time I visited the commercial hub of Gurgaon, in India, I was struck by the sheer number of skyscrapers housing Fortune 500 companies that called the “cyber city” home. Located only 20 miles from New Delhi, the former agricultural area was built entirely by private companies. And now, rising from the concrete city is a dramatic green masterpiece, The Camellias , a unique architectural utopia twice the size of Central Park. Created by DLF and headed by billionaire Kushal Pal Singh , the company began developing 22 urban colonies in Delhi. In 1985, the company started luxury living spaces for professionals in Gurgaon. They invest in sustainability from wastewater treatment systems at the DLF Golf and Country Club and recycling construction materials. Singh’s creation has enabled Gurgaon to become the leader in innovative green technology. The Camellias is the latest residential offering from DLF’s portfolio, … [Read more...] about The Camellias Residences In India-A Dramatic New Luxury Destination For Futuristic Living

By EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS, MICHAEL GOLDBERG and ROGELIO SOLIS ROLLING FORK, Miss. (AP) — A powerful tornado cut a devastating path through Mississippi Friday night, killing more than two dozen people and obliterating dozens of buildings, as it stayed on the ground for more than an hour. The tornado flattened entire blocks of the small Mississippi Delta town of Rolling Fork, reducing homes to piles of rubble, flipping cars on their sides and toppling the water tower. Residents hunkered down in bath tubs and broke into a John Deere store that they converted into a triage center for the wounded. The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency announced late Saturday afternoon in a tweet that the death toll had risen to 25 from 23. Four who were missing have been found but dozens also were injured. Meanwhile other parts of the Deep South were digging out from damage caused by other suspected twisters. One man also died in Morgan County, Alabama, the sheriff’s department there said in … [Read more...] about ‘There’s nothing left’: Mississippi tornado kills 25

When the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus—back after a six-year absence—begins its 50-city tour of North America this September, it will include 75 highly trained performers and a litany of extravagant acts. Tightrope walkers will flit across a triangular rope, 30 feet in the air. Acrobats will launch themselves between four spinning wheels suspended from stadium ceilings. BMX bikers will spring off a giant trampoline. And a 360-degree set studded with massive video screens and enhanced with sonic spatial technology will envelop audiences in the spectacle. There won’t, however, be any lions, tigers, or bears. Oh my! “When you have a brand called ‘The Greatest Show on Earth,’ you can’t downscale,” says Juliette Feld Grossman, chief operating officer at Feld Entertainment, which acquired the iconic circus in 1984. “You really have to reimagine and reinvent.” Founded in 1871, the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus delighted American families … [Read more...] about The Greatest Show on Earth gets a second chance

In 2022, Bristol Myers Squibb found itself on the cutting edge of drug development—reflected not only in groundbreaking products but in a sweeping diversity agenda.

(CTN News) – Amazon and other online retailers are scrambling to make free shipping work. In addition to charging for faster service, they’re raising minimum purchase requirements and shifting more costs to consumers who are struggling. Free delivery is going away, says Ken Morris, managing partner at Cambridge Retail Advisors. According to Morris, many retailers are starting to charge for better seating, luggage transportation, and frequent flyer points. Free shipping raises retailer prices. Despite this, product inflation and soaring shipping costs make the service unsustainable. The company underwrote its package delivery costs with pricey prime subscriptions and fat profits from other businesses. Amazon made other retailers follow, even though they didn’t have Amazon’s advantages. Retail margins are shrinking and shipping rates are skyrocketing for United Parcel Service, FedEx, and the US Postal Service, so e-commerce companies that offer free shipping are … [Read more...] about Amazon, Other Retailers Revisit Free Shipping Amid Rising Costs
