Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin It’s just not right that a devious criminal can afford one of Malibu’s most spectacular oceanfront homes. At least that was what viewers saw in the 1995 crime thriller Heat in which a group of high-end professional thieves start to feel the heat from the Los Angeles police department when they unknowingly leave a clue at their latest heist. The home, used in the movie as the residence of a criminal mastermind played by Robert De Niro, is now listed for $21 million. Al Pacino also starred in the film as a Los Angeles police detective in hot pursuit of De Niro after several plot turns and dramatic shootouts. ADVERTISEMENT The Malibu location is in one of Southern California’s best neighborhoods, Malibu Cove Colony, with an eclectic mix of guard-gated oceanfront homes. The ultra-contemporary home was designed by architect Ron Goldman.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Topline Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) weighed in Monday on the possible indictment of former President Donald Trump, calling the Manhattan District Attorney “corrupt” by saying he would not get involved in a “manufactured circus” surrounding the potential charges, as DeSantis prepares for a likely 2024 election rivalry against Trump. Key Facts DeSantis, who was speaking at an event in Panama City, Florida, told reporters he did not know what was going to happen with Trump’s potential indictment, and was not getting involved “in any way”—but he criticized the process. DeSantis called Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney who could bring charges against Trump in the coming days if a grand jury chooses to indict him, a “Soros-funded” prosecutor who “weaponizes” his office to “impose a political agenda on society” (billionaire George Soros, a frequent target of hard-right politicians, donated to a … [Read more...] about DeSantis Breaks Silence On Possible Trump Charges—And Criticizes N.Y.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Topline Former President Donald Trump may be indicted as soon as this week in Manhattan on charges stemming from his alleged “hush money” payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, an unprecedented event for a former president that would lead to him being arraigned in court—but not held in custody or being forced to end to his presidential campaign. Key Facts When Will Trump Be Indicted? That’s still unclear—the Manhattan grand jury hearing the case still has at least one more witness to hear from on Monday, and while they could vote on charges as soon as Monday, it could also come later depending on how things go. What Will Trump Be Arrested For? It’s expected that any charges against Trump will be for falsifying business records tied to the hush money payments to Daniels—as he allegedly reimbursed ex-attorney Michael Cohen for paying Daniels through the Trump Organization, labeling the charges as … [Read more...] about Here’s What Will Happen If Trump Is Arrested (Yes, He’ll Probably Get A Mugshot)

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Tech giants Google, Microsoft, and Amazon rang in the new year by announcing fresh rounds of layoffs — grabbing headlines and leading media giants like CNBC to declare that “the job cuts in tech land are piling up.” But tech land is indeed its own world. In the broader economy, this is the tightest labor market in 30 years. In 2019, there were 7 million job postings and 0.9 available workers per open role. Now, there are 11 million postings and 0.6 available workers per job — and many of the available workers don’t have skills that match the open roles. In Guild’s most recent American Workforce Survey , less than a quarter (22%) of workers said they were very worried about layoffs — with many, many more focused on opportunity, stability, and pathways to promotion. Employers are still having to compete hard for talent, even as economic uncertainty settles in. And this double-bind isn’t going away anytime … [Read more...] about Even A Sagging Economy Won’t Slow America’s Talent Crunch. Here’s How Companies Can Respond.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin “The core of your team gets built on the road,” said Oklahoma City Thunder coach Mark Daigneault on Sunday evening before the team hit the road for a trip out west. To him, road trips are great for a developing young team and there are plenty of lessons to be learned. “I love playing on the road. It’s a great test,” said Daigneault. “It’s strips away everything except for your team. It’s just you. I actually think road games, wins and losses, build a lot of chemistry because it limits a lot of distractions.” While these games are great tests, they’re extremely difficult to win. In fact, only two teams in the entire Western Conference have a winning record on the road this season. Oklahoma City is currently 13-21 away from Paycom Center in the 2022-23 campaign and facing a pivotal a four-game road trip. Over the course of the next week, the Thunder will play the LA Clippers twice, followed by the Los Angeles Lakers … [Read more...] about OKC Thunder To Face Most Pivotal Road Trip Of Season

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Everyone who’s ever met or spoken to Paddy Pimblett could probably attest to one thing. He’s as easygoing as anyone you'll ever talk to. And the simplest conversations with the mixed martial arts fighter feel like a chat with an old friend down at the pub. Perhaps it was for that reason that Pimblett, who called me “fella” and “lad” throughout our short Zoom interview earlier this month, seems like the kind of that Guy Ritchie would cast in one of his films. I mention that and ask if he sees “Paddy The Baddy” in future motion pictures. “Yeah, definitely,” Pimblett said. “I’ll be in movies one day, lad. Don't worry about that. I’ll be in films, 100%!” Pimblett kicked off the month of March with a trip to Southern California, where he hoped to catch some sun and train with a group of professional MMA fighters from Indonesia. While on his trip to San Diego and Los Angeles, Pimblett visited with UFC legend Chuck … [Read more...] about Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett Touts Mental Health, Being Approachable Part Of UFC Life

The news has also been reported by several outlets, including ESPN.com. “Sometimes in life change is needed for emotional stability, for wellness and just because you're at a place doesn't mean everything’s forever,” Cooley told Morey Hershgordon of WPRI 12 in a television interview Sunday night. “Providence has always been my dream job and I’ll continue to say that.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Ai Weiwei has unveiled a new artwork inspired by Claude Monet’s monumental “Water Lilies” (1914-26) triptych. Made entirely of Lego, “Water Lilies #1” is a recreation of one of the most famous paintings by the French Impressionist.

At over 15m long and made from nearly 650,000 studs of Lego bricks in 22 colors, “Water Lilies #1” is Ai’s most considerable Lego work to date.
