Oh se hoon

One of my favorite lines in a song comes from—wait for it—Katy Perry’s Roar : “I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything,” which is a cue for my youngest daughter to sprint to her costume pile, and the rest of my family to start dancing like crazy around our house. Anytime I am in a situation where I feel like keeping my hand down instead of raising it or swallowing a comment because I felt like my voice wasn’t the most important one in the room, I remember that line. If you don’t stand up for yourself, you are allowing someone else to choose your path. It’s only when you find your voice and stand your ground that you realize you always had the ability to do it, you just had to stand up for yourself. As often happens in my life, I learned this lesson the hard way, as a charity auctioneer. Tell me if this sounds familiar. You walk into a meeting filled with people of all ages and genders. This scenario doesn’t have to be in an office, it could be a classroom, a … [Read more...] about The mindset shift you need in order to stop your inner voice from sabotaging you

Samsung SDI CEO Choi Yoon-ho speaks during the company's annual general meeting on March 15 in southern Seoul. [SAMSUNG SDI] The CEO of Samsung SDI confirmed that the company is discussing a mid- to long-term partnership with General Motors, following reports that the battery maker and the U.S. automaker signed a memorandum of understanding to build a battery plant in the United States. “I visited the United States to have a close discussion with GM for the mid- to long-term cooperation,” said Samsung SDI CEO Choi Yoon-ho on his way out of the annual general meeting Wednesday, without specifically answering whether or not the two parties signed an agreement. The head of the Yongin, Gyeonggi–based battery maker hinted at the possibility of making lithium iron phosphate, or LFP, batteries to cater to clients pursuing affordability and safety. “LFP batteries represent an important platform, and we are working hard for the LFP range in order to meet the needs of different … [Read more...] about Samsung SDI, General Motors discuss possible cooperation

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Professional gamblers wager millions on the NCAA Tournament using an auction-style format that brings out casual hoop dreamers and sophisticated quants. With brackets busted, it still pays to play the game within the game. N eal, a 36-year-old insurance broker who lives in Ohio with his wife and two children, is the proud owner of the University of Texas, University of Connecticut, Tennessee, Creighton and Florida Atlantic men’s basketball teams. His wife doesn’t know about his ownership stakes, but hopefully by the end of the NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament his $19,000 investment will turn into $50,000. And then, he’ll let her know. “Right now, we’re on a heater,” he says of the March Madness run his teams are on. “We’re still in the red on paper, but I hope that will change quickly with a few wins.” Neal doesn’t technically own any team, of course, but the amateur sports gambler “bought” these college … [Read more...] about Inside A High-Stakes March Madness Calcutta

A U.S. ban on the world’s most popular social media app would affect far more American businesses and people than just the 150 million using the platform here. C asey Evertsen drove down a suburban Utah street lined with trash bins, speaking into his phone’s camera as he gave a tour of the brightly-colored truck he uses for his garbage can-cleaning business. “If you like seeing dirty stuff get cleaned and watching how cool stuff works, follow along,” he said in the video shared on TikTok. “Let’s clean some bins!” Evertsen’s service, Bin Blasters , had for a whole year struggled to get traction through Facebook and Instagram. So taking a cue from his teenage daughter, he decided to try promoting it on TikTok instead. On his eighth video, just one month in, Evertsen “blew up.” "I went out and just started cleaning bins that day, started on our route, and I look at my phone like an hour later, and there's 17,000 views,” he recalled. “Then it just got in the millions.” … [Read more...] about How A TikTok Ban Would Deal A Blow To Creators, Businesses And The American Economy

The glory of this is so real. As I was going through the news this morning to see what I wanted to blog about, I came across this mustard called “Bijan Mustardson.” If you have no idea what that is, it’s actually the official gourmet Dijon mustard line of Texas Longhorns running back Bijan Robinson . Bijan Robinson’s gourmet dijon mustard, Bijan Mustardson, is now available to order. Here’s the website. https://t.co/YD9Ko6GqX7 pic.twitter.com/Eaqtp4AGoq — Max Olson (@max_olson) August 19, 2022 Bijan Mustardson (which is an absolutely fantastic name) came out in August 2022 , which boggles me how I’m just now finding out about this (and I bet a lot of you are, too). Poor marketing, but what an awesome product, and such a cool NIL (name, image and likeness) deal. And with the bad marketing, it had nothing to do with this gem of a commercial: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bijan … [Read more...] about Texas Longhorns’ Bijan Robinson Has His Own Line Of Dijon Mustard In One Of The Coolest NIL Deals You’ll Ever See

It’s official: Deion Sanders really is the modern-day Mr. Midas Touch. Prior to Wednesday’s Colorado Buffaloes football practice, Coach Prime (as well as a few of his staffers) and some of the players decided to lift some weights. During so, Deion challenged his assistant Sam Malone, wide receivers coach Rashad ‘Shadd’ Davis and his son Deion ‘Bucky’ Jr. that he could out-bench them. Up first was Malone, who did one rep of 245 pounds. After him went Bucky, who failed to match the 245 set by Malone. Next was Davis, who did four reps of 245 and was the winner of the three. Insert Deion Sanders . In incredible fashion without warming up, Mr. Midas Touch himself took to the bench, putting up six reps of 245 pounds, and didn’t struggle until he got to the fifth lift (and even then, it wasn’t much). Oh, and he was doing this while wearing a hoodie with a winter jacket on top, and also had on gold chains, sunglasses and a hat. He literally didn’t take one thing off before … [Read more...] about 55-Year-Old Deion Sanders Benches 245 Pounds Without Warming Up While Wearing A Winter Coat And Chains
