Billionaire who sold two companies to Coca-Cola says he tries to convince people not to become entrepreneurs: ‘Every single day, you can go bankrupt’

Mike Repole, the billionaire entrepreneur who co-founded and sold beverage giants Glaceau and BodyArmor to Coca-Cola for a combined $9.7 billion, has an unexpected message for aspiring business owners: Don’t do it.
In an interview with The School of Hard Knocks, a popular social-media channel known for interviewing wealthy entrepreneurs, Repole shared his contrarian view on entrepreneurship, emphasizing the brutal realities that most success

Accusations of narcissism are so rampant today in popular culture that the term may be on the road to losing all meaning. But in our era of self-absorbed social media, some psychologists report that the trait—meant to describe someone who is low on empathy and inflated with self-regard—may be on the rise, particularly among young people, particularly in the West.
Recently, a team of scientists set out to determine what demographic and cultural factors actually count when it comes to the prevalence of narcissism. The results were surprising. For one thing, the team discovered that narcissism m

A photo of Miss Finland sparks racist accusations and furor across Asia

HELSINKI, Finland (AP) — Finland’s government is facing heavy pressure and accusations of racism from several Asian countries after its representative to the 2025 Miss Universe pageant was seen pulling the corners of her eyes in a photo -- and some Finnish politicians posted their own photos repeating the gesture.
Sarah Dzafce lost her Miss Finland crown last week after a photo of Dzafce pulling the skin at the corners of her eyes posted on social media went viral late last month. The photo, and its caption reading “ea

Hot peppers sent him to the ER. 2 years later, a 'ghost bill' arrived.

Maxwell Kruzic said he was in such “crippling” stomach pain Oct. 5, 2023, that he had to pull off the road twice as he drove himself to the emergency room at Mercy Regional Medical Center in Durango, Colorado. “It was the worst pain of my life,” he said.
Kruzic was seen immediately because hospital staff members were pretty sure he had appendicitis. They inserted an IV, called a surgeon and sent him off for a scan to confirm the diagnosis.

You may have seen headlines or social media posts talking about a weakening of Earth’s magnetic field, specifically over the South Atlantic.
It sounds dramatic, and a little scary. Is Earth losing its protective shield? Are we in danger? What exactly does this mean for people on the ground?
To get the facts straight, we spoke with Manoj Nair, a senior research scientist at CIRES at the University of Colorado and an affiliate at NOAA, who studies Earth’s magnetic field for a living.
His takeaway is reassuring: this is fascinating science and important for satellites, but not something the av

Mohit Verma's laboratory at Purdue University has developed a faster and more affordable paper-based biosensor for identifying genetically modified corn and soybeans, providing farmers with more accessible molecular diagnostic tools.
This new GM crop biosensor, which has a patent pending, uses a method called loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) to achieve more cost-effective and efficient testing than more expensive tools already on the market, according to a Purdue report shared by Phys.org.
The research team used their previous work in rapidly detecting highly pathogenic avian in

In 2002, evolutionary biologist Jenny Graves shared a controversial calculation. The human Y chromosome, she wrote two years later in a commentary, "is running out of time."
The male-determining **** chromosome has lost 97 percent of its ancestral genes in the last 300 million years. If that rate continues, Graves calculated, it could vanish in several million more.
The doomed fate of the Y chromosome quickly took the media by storm, in many cases without the nuance Graves had intended.

Ethereum traders are positioning with more optimism than their Bitcoin counterparts, options data shows.
Despite a broadly cautious investor stance, the divergence suggests that traders see less immediate downside risk for the second-largest crypto by market cap than for Bitcoin.

European country known for stunning women suffers drought of men — forcing would-be brides to ‘hire’ husbands for housework

These women were forced to enact a special “man-date.”
A nationwide shortage of men in Latvia has increasingly forced women to hire “husbands for an hour” to help with their household chores.
According to a recent report by Eurostat, Latvia boasts 15.5% more women than men – over three times the average rate in the European Union, according to local media. Meanwhile, over the age of 65, there are twice as many women as men, per the World Atlas.
As a result, the Balt

Earlier this week, Robert Griffin III, a former NFL quarterback from 2012 to 2020 (Redskins, Browns and Ravens), posted on X about why BYU had earned its place in the College Football Playoff. Punctuating his remarks, he said at the end: “Stop the persecution of the Christians, man ... come on!”
His commentary became a social media magnet for naysayers ready to recap their theological reasons for objecting to the label. But Robert Griffin III (often called RG3 for short), has heard this pushback before.

U.S. military conducts strike on another alleged drug boat, killing 4 people

It is the 22nd strike the U.S. military has carried out against boats in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean that the Trump administration claimed were trafficking drugs.
There were four casualties in Thursday’s strike, according to the social media post, bringing the death toll of the campaign to at least 87 people.

Probe underway over allegations Kash Patel used FBI jet for 'date night'

FBI Director Kash Patel's travel to watch his girlfriend sing at a Pennsylvania sporting event is now being investigated by the top Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee.

Financial misinformation isn’t new, but today, it’s supercharged. The 24/7 news cycle fueled by social media virality means you’re more likely than ever to consume inaccurate or misleading information every day. Sometimes these narratives, no matter how false, seep into our collective consciousness and give a false impression of our finances and the economy. This is the basis of a “vibecession,” that is, a disconnect between the actual performance of the economy and our overly negative perception of it.
Take, for example, a chart that made the social media rounds recently. It peddled the mess

Take your Social Security at 62.
That’s the buzzy advice blowing up on TikTok and YouTube.
Droves of “finfluencers,” as these social media personalities doling out financial tips are called, have been posting videos and memes to justify starting Social Security retirement benefits at age 62 — the earliest age allowed — and then investing the money each month in stocks.
That argument is in stark contrast to what most financial advisers and retirement experts have been urging people to do for years, which is to delay tapping your benefit until age 70 if you can afford to, thereby reaping a la

Ohio Republican Vivek Ramaswamy edits video initially proposing year-round school

(The Center Square) – Ohio Republican governor candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is quickly backing away from an idea to send children to school year-round and extend the school day.
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton posted a clip of Ramaswamy’s social media video, which outlined ideas to reduce the cost of child care, including sending students to school until 4 p.m. and keeping schools in session throughout the year.
Ramaswamy later deleted the video, and a new version without the school plan was upload

Four more people have been arrested as part of the investigation into last month's theft of precious jewellery at the Louvre Museum, the Paris prosecutor's office says.
Two men, aged 38 and 39, and two women, aged 31 and 40, were arrested on Tuesday. They are all from the Paris region.

Confused Trump, 79, Mistakenly Amplifies Calls to Impeach Himself

Donald Trump is struggling to stay on message after accidentally boosting a call to impeach himself.
The president, 79, went on a social media posting spree attacking a group of Democrats who last week released a video urging U.S. service members and the intelligence community to refuse illegal orders.
But while doing so, he posted a screenshot of Sen. Mark Kelly, a retired naval officer and one of six Democratic lawmakers featured in the video, from an anti-Trump account named “Impeach Trump a 3rd Time.”

Farmers in the Balakayati region of northern Iraq say they're facing one of their worst apple harvests in years, according to 964media.
A combination of unusually cold weather and spring snowfall severely damaged orchards, slashing yields across the area.
"Because of cold, wind, and snow, this year's apple yield is very low," farmer Rashid Hassan said. "Last year I harvested 40 tons from my orchard, but this year I only got 15 tons — and I had the highest yield among other farmers."
Balakayati, known for its fertile soil and high-quality produce, typically produces around 2,000 tons of appl

Pentagon says it's launching 'thorough review' into Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon announced Monday it is investigating Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona over possible breaches of military law after the former Navy pilot joined a handful of other lawmakers in a video that called for troops to defy "illegal orders."
The Pentagon’s statement, posted on social media, cited a federal law that allows retired service members to be recalled to active duty on orders of the defense secretary for possible court martial or other measures.

It hasn’t been easy to be a renter in the last five years. Rental prices surged in the aftermath of the pandemic, outstripping wage growth. But recently, renters have notched a small win: In much of the country, rents are falling.
Median monthly rent on units with up to two bedrooms fell 1.7% year-over-year in October to $1,696, according to Realtor.com. They’re now down about 3.6% from their 2022 peak.
Those lower prices are a win for many renters, and in some cases, they’re an incentive to keep renting for longer. While rents are falling, the cost of homeownership has continued to climb. M
