Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin It was 46 years ago Paul McCartney answered his critics and John Lennon, who claimed he often wrote songs that were too corny and sentimental, with the No 1 smash, "Silly Love Songs." In the song's opening stanza, McCartney sings, “You’d think that people would have had enough of silly love songs/I look around me and I see it isn’t so/Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs/And what’s wrong with that?/I’d like to know/’Cause here I go again.” Though McCartney wrote the song somewhat tongue in cheek, like so many geniuses, he turned out to be stunningly prophetic. Because watching McCartney Friday night at L.A.'s Sofi Stadium it was abundantly clear how much the world still needs his silly love songs. The eternal optimism of McCartney, at least publicly, is the ninth wonder of the world. Most perceptive people look at the world, and even before the horrific racially motivated shootings that happened … [Read more...] about Why The Eternal Optimism Of Paul McCartney Never Goes Out Of Style

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Few superyachts have the pedigree (and the mystique) than the 413-foot-long motor yacht Octopus that was custom-built for the late Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. Since its launch in 2003 its always been ranked as one of the largest private yachts in the world. And in spite of the fact that Allen often “loaned” the massive yacht (that was specifically equipped to conduct deep ocean recognizance and recovery missions) to governments to aid in finding and recovering of significant artifacts from warships that sank during WWII. And the huge yacht was often seen in some of the most recognizable destinations in the world, Allen always kept what the interior looked like a bit of a secret simply because he never chartered it. But now that Octopus has a new owner , and it will be available for charter in Antarctica later this year, photos of the interior have finally been made public. And as you can see, the interior … [Read more...] about 414-Foot Expedition Yacht Formerly Owned By Late Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen Available For Charter For First Time

Walking around the north side of Philadelphia’s University City neighborhood, it’s difficult to imagine what stood before the sprawling University of Pennsylvania medical campus, replete with scores of half-empty parking lots and franchise restaurants. But for Segregation By Design , a new initiative that seeks to unearth the legacy of racist planning in American cities, the visual history is clear. What stood before University City was Black Bottom , a thriving Black working-class community whose proximity to Philadelphia’s urban core made it a prime target for the 1950s slum clearance, freeway construction, and redevelopment projects that decimated hundreds of low-income neighborhoods across the country. advertisement advertisement Segregation by Design, which takes the form of a blog-style website, various social media pages, and a forthcoming book helps long-time residents and the urban-curious alike visualize the legacy of racist … [Read more...] about Segregation By Design: How one architect is visualizing the legacy of America’s racist urbanism

- A + A (May 14): A Russian court on Friday (May 13) extended the pre-trial detention of US professional basketball player Brittney Griner by one month, her lawyer told Reuters . Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medallist, was arrested in February at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport, allegedly in possession of cannabis-infused vaporiser cartridges. The Russian customs service said at the time that the alleged offence could carry a five to 10-year jail term. The US State Department has said that the 31-year-old was wrongfully detained, and has assigned diplomats to work for her release.

Washington and Moscow have kept diplomatic channels open since Russia's Feb 24 … [Read more...] about Russian court extends US basketball player Griner’s detention

Sadly, a recent surge in violent crimes in New York and other large American cities may be a sign of a return to that crime-ridden era. And Tuesday morning's shooting at a subway station in Brooklyn's Sunset Park is perhaps the strongest evidence. The perpetrator allegedly opened two smoke grenades before shooting at least 33 times and striking 10 people -- seven men and three women.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Topline Russian authorities extended the pre-trial detention of WNBA star Brittney Griner for 30 days during a Friday court hearing in Moscow, according to ESPN and the Associated Press , in what’s the most tangible update on the American’s status since she was detained on drug charges in February.
