Black Friday is nearly upon us, but the annual online price-drop frenzy seems to be losing its shine. Numerous reports highlight that discounting may not be all it seems, and buyers would be best to shop around. But behind the scenes, the industry is also seeing the demise of another popular craze Amazon was trying so hard to make a thing. With its voice-interface device, Alexa, the global ecommerce and tech behemoth in 2014 set in train a fashion for speech interfaces in the home, which had keen households around the world demanding their AI house guests to tell them...

“It was amazing, literally, that we spent seven hours with Dr. Fauci—this is a man who single-handedly wrecked the U.S. economy based upon ‘the science, follow the science.’ And over the course of seven hours, we discovered that he can’t recall practically anything dealing with his COVID response,” Landry told The Epoch Times after leaving the deposition. “He just said, ‘I can’t recall, I haven’t seen that. And I think we need to put these documents into context,’” Landry added. “It was extremely troubling to realize that this is a man who advises presidents of the United States and yet...

What interest rates are telling us is a bad sign. With an impending railroad strike that can torpedo the US economy (but if that is possible, why is the Biden Clan vacationing in Nantucket for Thanksgiving weekend when Joe should be talking with railroads and the unions to not let this happen?), let’s see what interest rates are telling us. First, the US Treasury 10Y-2Y yield curve continues to descrend into the abyss (now at -80 basis points). Second, the latest Fed Dot Plot (from September, new one will be issued during December) show that The Fed thinks that their...

MOSCOW, Nov 24 (Reuters) - Russia's parliament approved on Thursday a bill that widens a prohibition of "LGBT propaganda" and restricts the "demonstration" of LGBT behaviour, making any expression of an LGBT lifestyle almost impossible. Under the new law, which still needs the approval of the upper house of parliament and President Vladimir Putin, any action or information that is considered an attempt to promote homosexuality - whether in public, online, or in films, books or advertising - could incur a heavy fine. Previously, the law had outlawed only promotion of LGBT lifestyles aimed at children. The new bill also...

At the beginning of 2022, a photo of a chained woman found in China’s Xuzhou city, a victim of human trafficking, went viral on social media. Recently, two women were tied up and shamed by COVID-19 policy enforcers in southern China’s Guangzhou city for violating strict pandemic rules, sparking a public outcry on Chinese social media. U.S.-based China expert Tang Jingyuan pointed out that when the local authorities have the power to punish individuals without a trial, it indicates the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has incited various groups to struggle against each other under its “modern governance” model. According to...

Again, I want to set up a thread for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade! I do not see any, so here goes.

Net migration into Britain is 170,000 higher than the country's previous annual record Prominent conservatives have expressed their outrage at Britain's governing Conservative party that has overseen a record-high level of net migration at a staggering 504,000 in the year to June. Data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) revealed the total numbe of long-term arrivals into the U.K. for the reporting period was 1.1 million, with 560,000 emigrating out of the country long term... Prominent conservatives have been quick to leap on the figures as an example of a supposedly-conservative government losing control of its borders. "These net...

Has none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?” Luke 17:17-18Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving Day presents us with the perfect opportunity to look at this particular aspect of our faith. We are called to be eternally and deeply grateful. How grateful to God are you?Perhaps we all...

Republicans appear to have defended every U.S. House seat they won in California in 2020, despite determined Democratic efforts to take them back. The last undecided race in the nation, the contest in the newly-created 13th district in the Central Valley, Republican farmer John Duarte appeared to hold a narrow lead of several hundred votes over Assemblyman Adam Gray (D-Merced), such that some analysts were ready to call the race.

Each year at this time, schoolchildren all over America are taught the official Thanksgiving story, and newspapers, radio, TV, and magazines devote vast amounts of time and space to it. It is all very colorful and fascinating. It is also very deceiving. This official story is nothing like what really happened. It is a fairy tale, a whitewashed and sanitized collection of half-truths which divert attention away from Thanksgiving's real meaning. The official story has the Pilgrims boarding the Mayflower, coming to America, and establishing the Plymouth colony in the winter of 1620–21. This first winter is hard, and half...

The Colorado Springs shooting suspect’s gender identity will not stop the authorities from bringing in hate crime charges against them, legal experts claim. … The suspect’s gender identity is “not relevant," Neama Rahmani, president of West Coast Trial Lawyers and a former federal prosecutor, told Insider. "Obviously the defense will want to get it in, but it’s not a defense." "It’s certainly something that the defense would try to use, but it’s not in and of itself a bar from hate crime charges depending on what the other evidence is," Brian Levin, professor of criminal justice at California State University,...
