Because of her tough-as-nails negotiating style, many business adversaries thought she was "unfeminine," but to Joel, she was always a woman.

# Billy Joel's many songs about his many wives

Add to list On my list Billy Joel and Alexis Roderick in 2013.

By Justin Wm. Moyer Justin Wm. Moyer Reporter covering breaking news July 6, 2015

While most of America was celebrating the 239th anniversary of its independence, Billy Joel was surrendering his.

Joel, 66, married fiancée Alexis Roderick, 33, at his estate in Long Island.

As People reported, no less a personage than New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) presided over the ceremony of the couple, who is expecting a child.

Joel and Roderick "surprised guests at their annual July 4th party by exchanging vows in front of their family and close friends," Joel's spokesman told People.

This was news of the "man bites dog" variety.

Roderick is Joel's fourth wife; he was previously married to Elizabeth Weber (1973-1982), Christie Brinkley (1985-1994) and Katie Lee (2004-2010).

What's less known is that, though Joel's marriages may have cost him much filthy lucre — the singer has said he's worth more than $160 million — these relationships (and others) have paid dividends in other ways: raw material for songs, some of them huge hits.

Because, as it turns out, lyrics as good as "she'll take what you give her as long as it's free" don't come free.

Here's a look back at the love affairs behind the music:

Joel's portrait of drinkers down on their luck, released in 1973, wasn't that different from his life as he sought fame and fortune in the music business.

Joel made a failed album, stole his bandmate's wife and attempted suicide after facing hard times.

"It was 1970," Joel told biographer Fred Schruers.

"I'd reached the age of twenty-one and still had no money.

I had no place to live … crashing at my mom's place again, which is abject failure, when you have to go back to your parents' house.

To avoid that I'd been roaming about like a homeless person – crashing on friends' couches, sometimes in a car I'd find unlocked, in the warmth of a Laundromat, back and forth in the subways of Queens, even in the woods."

Joel, of course, recovered, marrying Weber, his first wife and future manager.

She is the "waitress practicing politics" of "Piano Man."

"These were the days of, if not wine and roses, then rye and high hopes for us," Joel said.

"She's Only a Woman"/"Just the Way You Are"

Joel wrote these ballads about a femme fatale for Weber, calling "She's Only a Woman" a "tribute to Elizabeth."

Some said the song, and the similarly themed "Just the Way You Are," were misogynistic; the singer denied it.

"My take was 'She can ruin your faith with her casual lies/and she only reveals what she wants you to see' — all second person — but then it comes back to me: 'She's always a woman to me,'" Joel said.

"Yes, she can be difficult, she can be confounding, she can be impossible, but she's obviously a better businessperson than you are."

Joel may have regretted his observation.

Weber's reaction upon first hearing "Just the Way You Are": "Do I get the publishing, too?"

Joel later sued Weber's brother, whom she brought into the Joel organization, for $90 million.

This lesser-known tune is about one of Joel's lesser-known relationships — with supermodel Elle Macpherson.

"I remember somebody got a shot of us walking down a beach at Coney Island," Joel told Schruers.

"… Elle was so tall that I looked like Bubbles the Chimp next to her, and I realized this was just not going to work."

Joel funneled his insecurities into "And So It Goes" after Macpherson landed her first cover: "And so it goes/And so will you soon I suppose."

Many assume this song is about Christie Brinkley — after all, she's in the video.

It's actually about Macpherson and Brinkley — or was, until Joel settled down with the latter and changed the original title, "Uptown Girls," to the singular.

"I had gotten divorced and I started dating these different women," Joel said in an interview posted to his Web site.

I was a rock star — a single guy who was a rock star.

I was amazed at my good fortune at the time. …

I started writing songs about these experiences.

I kind of felt like a teenager all over again."

Even the format of the song — a Frankie Valli tribute Joel has said is "the inverse of 'Rag Doll,' in which the singer is a rich guy, she the poor girl" — was a throwback to his youth.

But it's a throwback that resonates decades later — Joel sang it to Brinkley, with whom he remains quite visibly friends, at Madison Square Garden last year.

The song was released in 1977, following several other hits from "The Stranger" including "Just the Way You Are", "Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)" and "Only the Good Die Young". Musically, Joel has said that he was influenced by Gordon Lightfoot and his mellow acoustic guitar ballads. It is a love song that Joel wrote for his then wife, Elizabeth Weber. Elizabeth had taken over management of Joel's career, and was able to put his financial affairs in order after Joel had signed some bad deals and contracts. She was a tough and savvy negotiator who could "wound with her eyes" or "steal like a thief", but would "never give in".

The Church is the daughter Church of St Mark's Church, Connah's Quay.

## Welcome to St David's Church, Connah's Quay

It is an active Anglican church in the deanery of Hawarden, the archdeaconry of Wrexham and the diocese of St Asaph.

The foundation stone was laid on 21 March 1914.

The first service was held in the Church in January 1915.

The building was initially intended to be the Church Hall and the main Church building was to be built in front on the field.

However the parish ran out of money and the hall, which was built of Ellesmere Sandstone with the inside lined with Ruabon brick, was converted into the church and a small hall built next to it, which is now known as the Institute.

The field is used for Church Fetes and other events.

Borderlands Mission Area believes and proclaims the Good News of Jesus Christ,

This is Good News, because it encourages each one of us to realise that God loves us, that he has gone out of his way to meet us in the person of his Son, in whom he accepts us as we are.

He asks us to draw on his strength to live life to the full, and to bring healing to the world.

We invite you to join with us in sharing this Good News.

who at your first coming sent your messenger

grant that the ministers and stewards of your mysteries

may likewise so prepare and make ready your way

by turning the hearts of the disobedient

that at your second coming to judge the world

we may be found an acceptable people in your sight;

for you are alive and reign with the Father

We believe that this local presence is an important sign of our desire to serve and work with local communities and organisations, not just those people who come to church.

We have a deep belief that God is present in the lives of every one of us whatever our situation, age and background – whether or not we belong to a faith community..

“We provide analytics and workflow automation to 24/7 facilities teams to improve operational efficiency, reduce equipment downtimes, and save on energy, delivered as a SaaS,” said co-founder Thomas Chung to TechCrunch in March 2016.

# Verdigris takes $9M to power its AI energy consumption analytics b2b startup

We hear a lot about the Internet of Things on the consumer side.

The oft trotted out example of the 'smart' refrigerator that tells consumers when they've run out of the milk, and so on.

But more serious potential for IoT — and potentially seriously big wins — are likely to be on the enterprise side where connected sensors can be deployed to automate at scale.

By, for example pulling energy consumption data on large facilities and driving smarter and more responsive building operation — with the prize being major cost and resource savings.

b2b IoT startup Verdigris is playing in just such a space.

The company took in a $6 million Series A round in December, which it's just announcing now — and which includes, on top of that, a $3 million convertible seed, bringing its total raised to date to $9 million.

Investors in the business include Jabil Circuit, Stanford StartX Fund, Founder.org Capital, DCVC, and a collection of private investors.

While, in classic startup style, Verdigris kicked off activities in a Sunnyvale, CA garage, back in 2010, it's now based at the NASA Ames Research Park in Moffett Field — and has 20 active customers at this point, according to co-founder Thomas Chung.

The founding team switched from tinkering in a garage to going full time on the business in 2012, launching their IoT-powered b2b SaaS energy consumption analytics service for large facilities two years ago, in March 2014.

"We focus on domestic U.S. companies in hospitality, manufacturing, and healthcare facilities.

One is in Cairo, Egypt, the other in Livingston, UK.

Both sites are active and serving as international proof of concepts," Chung tells TechCrunch.

The idea for Verdigris came after the other two co-founders, Mark Chung and Jonathan Chu, had been working on advanced algorithmic acceleration for deep packet inspection at their prior company, Netlogic.

"One month in December of 2009 Mark had an excessive electricity bill.

We had an idea to apply a deep packet algorithm to figuring out where it was coming from," says Chung.

What the team has now is an energy consumption analytics system designed to pull data on large facilities and automatically detect energy-consuming devices based on their individual electronic fingerprint.

The system then serves up real-time energy consumption data to facilities managers via a series of analytics dashboards.

"We provide analytics and workflow automation to 24/7 facilities teams to improve operational efficiency, reduce equipment downtimes, and save on energy, delivered as a SaaS," is how Chung sums it up.

"Our technology is an artificially intelligent energy sensor for facilities," he says, going into more detail.

"It automatically detects building equipment — everything from HVAC cooling towers and Electric Vehicle stations to iPhone chargers and laptops.

This allows us to make actionable recommendations for facilities to improve how they condition their building, and manage their equipment and energy load."

The system is comprised of proprietary sensor hardware (pictured below) — aka "a custom built magnetic digital sensor that uses the Hall effect to capture electricity 'finger-prints'" — coupled with machine learning algorithms that can detect and track how energy is being consumed on the building's energy network.

The hardware sensors are designed to be attached to individual circuits in a building without the need for rewiring.

The sensors are daisy chained together and attached to a 4G/LTE enabled data transmission device fixed to each electricity panel in a building — enabling the data to be offloaded to Verdigris' cloud platform for analysis.

"The energy data is packaged securitized and sent in real-time to an enterprise grade server in the cloud powering our algorithms," explains Chung.

"Features of the data are clustered through unsupervised Machine Learning into sets that reflect individual devices and device states.

"Once the clusters are learned, their representation is recorded in a library of devices.

Convex optimization techniques can then map the device representations to the incoming stream of data.

If we don't know what kind of equipment it is or it hasn't been seen before, the AI will prompt the user or our professional services team for labeling information."

Verdigris delivers all this energy consumption intel to its customers as an enterprise SaaS, with a monthly fee for usage.

It has built four products for facilities teams at this point: a mobile web app that offers real-time event tracking and notification; a fully featured web dashboard that lets users configure systems, label detected equipment, and trend and analyze the data; an interactive data visualization interface designed to engage building occupants and provide insights into personalized data; and curated monthly operations and energy reports for Chief Engineers, Finance and Ops Managers to gain visibility into asset performance and uptime and offer recommendations for adjustments to improve operational and energy performance.

While it's started with energy consumption analytics at this stage, using its IoT hardware and AI software to improve in-building intelligence for facilities managers, the ultimate aim is to offer even more algorithmic automation down the line, by adding and automating controls.

Chung says Verdigris sees its biggest growth potential in: "Developing control features or integrating them through partnerships".

"We feel like our greatest value add will be when we can do the heavy lifting for our customers and increase the actionability of the insights we deliver," he notes.

"It's fair to say that we're in the early stages of a market transformation that will create new value in business and energy management," he adds.

While Chung notes there are "steadily growing" numbers of connected devices in the buildings environment, he says most are either closed looped systems or devices with "singular purposes with very little incentive to cross communicate" — arguing that the really big wins from IoT will come from building out networked infrastructure, rather than a conglomerate of individual smart sensors.

"The current market is still fragmented, wide open and the opportunity is huge," he adds.

"The number of connected devices in the building environment has been steadily growing, yet we don't see a plausible leader in the space.

The large incumbents are still in closed looped, isolated BMS systems.

Newer devices are coming online with wi-fi, zigbee, or LTE.

These devices all have singular purposes with very little incentive to cross communicate.

Regardless the value of their stand alone function

, as a networked infrastructure they are far more valuable than the sum their independent features."

"Verdigris has been building an artificial intelligence truly capable of understanding device-level electricity consumption and usage in buildings for the first time.

We see this as a critical step toward creating ambient intelligence — the idea in the not-so-distant future, buildings will be autonomous, efficient and sustainable environments responsive to their inhabitants," he adds.

# Review: 'The Assassination of Richard Nixon'

## A muted character study about a sad sack who channels his emotional and career frustrations into an attempted act of political violence, "The Assassination of Richard Nixon" fails to stir much involvement or sympathy.

A good cast led by an unusually subdued Sean Penn provides the lion's share of interest.

This article was updated on May 19, 2004.

A good cast led by an unusually subdued Sean Penn provides the lion's share of interest in a tale whose evident attraction to an illustrious array of talent on both sides of the camera fails to translate into viewer appeal.

Star names will probably snare this independent drama a theatrical shot, but B.O. prospects are slim.

Presence of 10 producers, including the likes of the Cuaron brothers, Alexander Payne and Leonardo Di Caprio, suggest a twisty road to the screen for this odd project, which feels weirdly out of time and place at this particular point.

Title spells out the failure of the protagonist's misguided ambition from the get-go, and, with little compelling reason to engage in his succession of fumbles and blown opportunities, it's very hard to get on board with this relentlessly one-note venture.

Inspired by a true story, script by first-time director Niels Mueller, who co-wrote "Tadpole," and Kevin Kennedy shows Samuel Bicke (Penn) preparing to enter the Baltimore-Washington Airport on Feb. 22, 1974, with obviously bad intentions.

Two weeks earlier, Bicke has tape recorded an explanation of his upcoming actions to his idol Leonard Bernstein, who he is entrusting to present his reasons to the world; he is, as he puts it, "a grain of sand" who has found a way assert himself by destroying the all-powerful beings that oppress him.

It's a discomforting notion, now more than ever, of course, but it doesn't gather any special resonance through the telling of Bicke's pathetic life.

An ineffectual salesman in an office furniture showroom, Bicke is handed books like "The Power of Positive Thinking" and "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by his boom-voiced boss (vet Aussie thesp Jack Thompson in an enjoyable Ned Beatty-like turn), but Bicke seems like a man hopelessly miscast where people skills are required.

Bicke has a garage mechanic buddy (Don Cheadle) he can sort of confide in, but certainly he is far from adept at dealing with his estranged wife Marie (a brunette Naomi Watts, good) and his kids.

His groveling attempts to curry favor with her merely drive her further away.

"All I want is a little piece of the American dream," Bicke moans as he assesses his forlorn lot in life.

Then one day Bicke is awakened politically by an appearance of Black Panther David Hilliard on TV, reacting naively as if he had never heard a word of radical discourse before.

In a scene played for goofy humor, Bicke walks into a local Panthers office, professes his commitment to the masses and makes a proposal to a man willing to listen to him (Mykelti Williamson) that they merge into a group called the Zebras, to include blacks and whites.

When the Panthers fail to get back to him on that one, Bicke shaves off his moustache and begins talking to himself in the mirror, which merely invites unflattering comparisons with "Taxi Driver" that have already been raised by the similarity of the man's name with Travis Bickle.

Informed that his marriage has been dissolved, he's been discharged at work and with Watergate unfolding on television in the background, Bicke's tenuous grasp on a tolerable life is lost.

Upbraided by his disaffected brother (a bearded, powerful Michael Wincott) after attempting a disastrous business scam, Bicke sets his vengeful sights on the president, who isn't long for his job anyway.

The man's amateurish attempt to hijack a plane and force it to crash into the White House is a total botch, although the scene provokes memories of more recent and all-too-successful like ventures.

Story's violent resolution leaves the viewer with nothing to take away except for the overriding feeling that making the film was a bad idea all around.

Penn's magnetism and hesitant line delivery create what interest there is, although the whole picture suffers from a central figure who can never get it together on any level.

Mueller and his proficient collaborators, including ace lenser Emmanuel Lubezki, editor Jay Cassidy and production designer Lester Cohen, have mounted a pro package with decent period detail, and the score by Steven Stern, abetted by Beethoven excerpts, emphasizes cello refrains to achieve a predominantly mournful tone.

Our Native Daughters (Rhiannon Giddens, Amythyst Kiah, Leyla McCalla, Allison Russell)

Songs of Our Native Daughters shines new light on African-American women's stories of struggle, resistance, and hope.

Pulling from and inspired by 17th-, 18th-, and 19th-century sources, including slave narratives and early minstrelsy, kindred banjo players Rhiannon Giddens, Amythyst Kiah, Leyla McCalla, and Allison Russell reinterpret and create new works from old ones.

With unflinching, razor-sharp honesty, they confront sanitized views about America's history of slavery, racism, and misogyny from a powerful, black female perspective.

These songs call on the persistent spirits of the daughters, mothers, and grandmothers who have fought for justice – in large, public ways – only now being recognized, and in countless domestic ways that will most likely never be acknowledged.

## Mexican police say Edgar Huerta Montiel, 22, confessed to leading the capture of two truckloads of undocumented migrants in Tamaulipas state, and the killing of 10 of the victims.

He also allegedly told of ordering the kidnapping of six busloads of passengers in San Fernando, Mexico.

Reporting from Mexico City — Mexican authorities on Friday announced the arrest of the man they say directed the kidnappings of 72 Central and South American migrants found slain in northern Mexico last year.

Federal police said Edgar Huerta Montiel, 22, told them he led the capture of two freight trucks packed with undocumented migrants in the state of Tamaulipas, then killed 10 of the victims.

Huerta, described as an army deserter who works for the Zetas drug gang, allegedly told police he also ordered the kidnappings of six busloads of passengers in the rural town of San Fernando.

Captives were taken to safe houses and tortured for information, including whether they were working for the Gulf cartel, a rival gang, said Ramon Eduardo Pequeno, head of the anti-drug division of the federal police.

Tamaulipas, which borders Texas, has seen some of Mexico's worst violence amid fighting between the gangs and the inability of Mexican authorities to establish order.

The bodies of the 72 migrants were found in August on a ranch in San Fernando after one member of the group escaped.

In the same area, authorities this spring found graves containing the remains of nearly 200 people believed kidnapped from buses headed toward the border.

At least 21 suspects have been arrested in those slayings.

Migrants are frequently seized by gangs hoping to extort money from the victims' loved ones.

Some Mexican news media reported that Huerta had told police that more than 600 victims had been buried in makeshift graves, though authorities did not confirm that.

Huerta and his girlfriend were arrested Thursday in the northern state of Zacatecas.

Authorities said he was a top aide to Salvador Alfonso Martinez Escobedo, an alleged Zetas chief in Tamaulipas known as "Squirrel."

The Mexican government has offered a reward of about $1.3 million for information leading to Martinez's capture.

Huerta also allegedly worked with another suspected crime boss, Martin Omar Estrada Luna, who was arrested in April by Mexican marines.

On 17 April 2011, in the capital city of Ciudad Victoria, Mexican authorities captured Martín Omar Estrada Luna, alias "El Kilo", lieutenant boss of Los Zetas in San Fernando, Tamaulipas, and responsible for at least 217 killings in that locality. Along with "El Kilo", 11 additional Zeta gunmen were apprehended. They were linked to the killing of a policeman and an investigator who were covering the massacres. In addition, Estrada Luna was one of the masterminds of the massacre of the 72 migrants and of the mass graves found. He was regarded by the DEA as "one of the most aggressive leaders in Los Zetas organization." Federal Police captured Édgar Huerta Montiel, alias "El Wache", a high-ranking lieutenant of Los Zetas and the man responsible for the killings of the 72 immigrants, on 17 June 2011 in Fresnillo, Zacatecas.

# How Many Calories Are in One Oreo Cookie?

Tim Petrie is a sports medicine physical therapist and a certified orthopedic specialist practicing in Milwaukee, WI.

In addition to treating patients of all ages, he is passionate about writing about health and wellness topics.

In his free time, Tim loves to run and travel with his wife and two kids.

Few things rival the simple pleasure of eating an Oreo cookie!

The tempting combination of rich, creamy filling sandwiched in between two chocolatey wafers has been tempting people since its introduction more than 100 years ago.

Chances are, you're eating more than just one Oreo cookie.

However, it's best to exercise caution while you're opening that familiar blue package.

While the cookies may be small in size, they can pack an unexpected caloric punch!

One Oreo cookie has little more than 53 calories.

The serving size listed on the standard Oreo package is 3 cookies, so these amounts are all tripled on the nutritional label.

A single Oreo cookie has a little over 53 calories.

The cookie also contains 8.3 grams of carbohydrates, 2.3 grams of fat and 0.67 grams of protein.

Calories in an Oreo Cookie Without the Filling:

While it may be delicious, the sweet filling may be the unhealthiest part of an Oreo.

Without the white cream, an Oreo contains only 20 calories.

This includes 8 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fat and 0 grams of protein.

Back in 1974, Nabisco found a way to give consumers more of what they loved and introduced Double Stuf Oreos.

These cookies contain roughly double the cream filling and have been available in grocery stores ever since.

Predictably, increasing the creamy inside

A Double Stuf Oreo contains 70 calories and has 10.5 grams of carbohydrates, 3.5 grams of fat and ½ gram of protein in each cookie.

## What's the Healthiest Variety of Oreo?

Over the years, Nabisco has introduced many different varieties of Oreos, ranging from more common variations like Mint or Golden Oreos to more obscure flavors like Cinnamon Bun, Blueberry Pie or Swedish Fish Oreos.

While each variety has its own unique nutritional content, some are definitely a little healthier for you than others.

Predictably, Oreo Thins are among the healthier versions.

This type, which is about half as thick as a standard Oreo cookie, has just 35 calories in each one.

Golden Oreos, at 56 calories per cookie, offer a different take on the original flavor without differing all that greatly nutritionally.

On the other side of the fence, several of the newer Oreo flavors contain more calories than the original version.

Waffles and Syrup Oreos are near the top at 75 calories per cookie.

Other varieties like Cookie Butter Oreos, Firework Oreos and Blueberry Pie Oreos each contain 70 calories apiece.

In general, if you're looking to save on calories and still enjoy a treat, it may be a good idea to opt for the original Oreo.

What's the healthiest way to indulge your sweet tooth?

## Are Oreos Better for You Than Other Cookies?

If you're looking for a sweet treat that isn't going to ruin your diet for the rest of the day, you could do worse than an Oreo.

Choosing to indulge in a Nutter Butter instead will get you 65 calories per cookie while a Little Debbie Oatmeal Cream Pie contains 170 calories.

On the lighter end, Nilla Wafers have just under 14 calories each while Chips Ahoy cookies are similar to an Oreo at 53 calories each.

In general, it's best to incorporate any type of cookie sparingly into a balanced and well-rounded diet.

Or if you can, indulge your sweet tooth with a single square of dark chocolate (ideally, 70-percent cacao or more).

Oreos do not contain any animal or dairy-derived ingredients and thus are considered safe to eat for vegans and vegetarians.

That said, Nabisco states that there's a chance they may be cross-contaminated with milk products in the factory.

As a result, people with a dairy allergy should be particularly cautious before indulging in the cookie.

And don't confuse "vegan" with healthy."

Just because a food lacks animal-derived ingredients doesn't mean it's a superfood.

The "lady" part of the nickname is how fans of the club affectionately referred to it before the 1930s. The club is also nicknamed "la Fidanzata d'Italia" (the Girlfriend of Italy), because over the years it has received a high level of support from Southern Italian immigrant workers (particularly from Naples and Palermo), who arrived in Turin to work for FIAT since the 1930s. Other nicknames include; "[La] Madama" (Piedmontese for: Madam), "i bianconeri" (the black-and-whites), "le zebre" (the zebras) in reference to Juventus' colours. "I gobbi" (the hunchbacks) is the nickname that is used to define Juventus supporters, but is also used sometimes for team's players. The most widely accepted origin of "gobbi" dates to the fifties, when the "bianconeri" wore a large jersey. When players ran on the field, the jersey, which had a laced opening at the chest, generated a bulge over the back (a sort of parachute effect), making the players look hunchbacked.
 The official anthem of Juventus is "Juve (storia di un grande amore)", or "Juve (story of a great love)" in English, written by Alessandra Torre and Claudio Guidetti, in the version of the singer and musician Paolo Belli composed in 2007. In 2016, a documentary film called "Black and White Stripes: The Juventus Story" was produced by the La Villa brothers about Juventus.

# Former Nine star lands new breakfast show gig

Sarah CartySenior Lifestyle & Entertainment ProducerYahoo Lifestyle26 May 2019View photosPeter Stefanovic has landed a new job with Sky News.

Five months after he revealed the bombshell news that he was leaving Channel Nine after 15 years with the network, Peter Stefanovic has landed a new job.

The younger brother of former Today host, Karl Stefanovic, will be co-anchoring Sky News' breakfast show, First Edition, with Laura Jaynes.

"Absolutely thrilled to join @ljayes as the new host of Sky News First Edition, Stefanovic wrote on Instagram.

"Laura is one of the best political interviewers in the country and I look forward to working alongside her and the team.

I start July 1 and hope you can tune in!

@sylviajeffreys has already given me her alarm clock".

He went on to say the last year has been 'tough' but he's ready to take on the new challenge ahead.

"It did have its challenges, particularly because I'm inherently quite a shy person so, when there's stuff going on out there, it's embarrassing and I felt responsible and ashamed for a lot of what happened," he told News Corp.

"Not just because of the damage I might have caused to my employer, but also to my family as well."

Peter, who is married to former Today newsreader, Sylvia Jeffreys, was previously fronting Weekend Today and some 60 Minutes segments on Channel Nine.

"Peter has decided to explore new opportunities and is looking forward to spending weekends with his wife," read a statement from a Channel Nine representative in December.

"He has been a respected member of the Nine News team and Weekend Today, and we wish him all the best for the future."

after Peter quit his role at Channel Nine, his brother, Karl Stefanovic, followed him out the door.

Just hours after Peter's departure was confirmed, his brother, Karl Stefanovic, revealed he was following him out the door.

The 44-year-old Today show host had been with the station for 14 years but had been weathering media criticism since leaving his wife of more than 20 years.

Karl and Peter had also been in the spotlight since that Ubergate scandal earlier last year.

New Idea reported a conversation that occurred between Karl and Peter in a cab, where Karl was busted blasting his co-host Georgie Gardner.

Crisis talks were held over the future of the former Today host following the abrupt exit of his younger brother, The Daily Telegraph revealed.

View photosPeter and his wife, Sylvia Jeffreys, quit their jobs in December last year.

Then, just days later, Sylvia Jeffreys confirmed she was leaving the breakfast program to take on a 'brand new project' in 2019.

In a statement, the newsreader revealed she would not be returning to the show but would continue on with the network.

Peter had nothing but positive words about the network and his colleagues when his departure was confirmed in December.

"I've had an amazing time at Nine being a foreign correspondent, news reporter and covering some amazing stories for 60 Minutes," he said.

"I'll miss my friends at Nine very much, it has been a huge privilege to work alongside so many great people."

The reporter started working at the network back in 2004 for Nine News and A Current Affair, before spending some time overseas as a foreign correspondent.

He returned to Australia in 2015, and married his brother's co-star Sylvia Jeffreys in 2017.

Hawthorn Family Wealth provides asset management services for family offices with over $20 million in net worth and directly oversaw almost $31 billion as of 2017.

Family Lessons Learned, From Hawthorn, PNC Family Wealth's Nicole Perkins - Barron's

Nicole Perkins got her first inkling of what it takes to run a successful business watching her parents, Henry and Gail Perkins, expand their corner candy shop into a diner-style coffee shop and then a thriving jazz club that hosted the likes of Count Basie in its heyday.

It was a Harlem institution where customers came as much to see her mother and father as to enjoy jazz served up with great soul food.

Their success, says Perkins, who now heads Hawthorn, PNC Family Wealth, was built on "their willingness to open themselves up to people, to be truly authentic."

Perkins' parents never spoke with her or her older sister, Karen, about what would happen to the business when they no longer ran it.

The sisters pursued their own careers, not realizing their parents probably took it as a blow.

"Not even having that discussion put us in the dark about business succession for our own family business," she says.

(Her parents sold the business in 2004, when they retired.)

As the head of Hawthorn, PNC's multifamily-office practice for families with at least $20 million in assets, Perkins, now 51, finds herself drawn to families like her own, those that really don't want to broach the topic of business succession.

These are the families she goes back to when they hesitate, to try to get that conversation started.

• Parent: PNC Financial Services Group (ticker: PNC)

• Wealth assets under management: $52.5 billion for clients with $5 million or more

• PNC Wealth Management: Serves clients with at least $1 million

• Hawthorn, PNC Family Wealth: Serves clients with at least $20 million

• Hawthorn advisor/client ratio: 1 to 15 on average

Less than five years after she left her private legal practice to become a fiduciary advisor at Hawthorn, Perkins was tapped in December 2015 to oversee the wealth of some 700 families with assets totaling about $31 billion, in accounts that average $50 million.

That's about 60% of the $52.5 billion in wealth management assets at PNC in accounts of $5 million or more.

The rest are housed at PNC Wealth Management under Alistair Jessiman.

' Asset Management Group, which oversees Hawthorn and PNC Wealth, says Perkins is "the type of leader who helps all those around her achieve more than they thought possible."

Hawthorn, around since 1991, was among the first multifamily-office providers to have a separate boutique-like identity within a large bank—PNC Financial Services Group in this case.

One way Perkins fosters achievement at Hawthorn is by ensuring that its leadership doesn't lose touch with clients.

PNC has a philosophy of promoting from within and moving execs from one division to another.

"You really learn by emulating those who you see doing it very well," Perkins says from PNC's offices in Philadelphia.

Running a high-end wealth management practice seems a far cry from running a jazz club, but like her parents, Perkins likes working with people, which drew her to trust and estate law and, eventually, to wealth management.

"I love to give advice and figure out what the issues and challenges are, and to listen," Perkins says.

"It's who I am," and "that was given to me by my parents."

On November 15th LuckyMe released the Fever Focus ep by Jacques Greene

(meta data) TITLE: Jacques Greene: Fever Focus EP Album Review | Pitchfork

(meta data) PUBLISHED DATETIME: 2018-11-27T06:00:00

After last year's Feel Infinite, the Canadian producer expands and refines his arsenal of club tools, folding touches of acid and ambient into tracks that build on his melodic sensibilities.

"Nordschleife" — Jacques GreeneVia Bandcamp / Buy

This past summer, Jacques Greene launched his party series Beau Travail with a simple premise: the Toronto-based producer going back to back all night with some of his favorite selectors.

Guests so far have included Project Pablo, Eclair Fifi, and Martyn Bootyspoon; the anything-goes format recalls Philippe Aubin-Dionne's Montreal club beginnings, allowing him the chance to test out new material in an intimate setting.

Much like those nights, which might feature anything from ghettotech to deep house, there's a

delightful sense of informality to his latest EP, Fever Focus

Following his 2017 debut album, Feel Infinite, these six tracks began as "fun loops and ideas" that the producer then sculpted and played in DJ and live sets over the past year.

Some songs, like the throbbing endorphin rush "Convex Mirror," first surfaced as demos on Aubin-Dionne's 48-minute mixtape shared on NTS Radio in May, but here, they're fully fleshed out and given the space to breathe.

Rather than a stopgap between releases, it's his most high-definition collection to date, building on familiar forms and expanding his melodic sensibilities.

These tracks skew warmer and gauzier than his previous output, and they showcase an encyclopedic knowledge of his rave forebears.

Whereas it's commonplace for today's electronic producers to have one album cut that's explicitly "acid" or "ambient," Aubin-Dionne opts to fold these influences into the mélange.

The latter reference point rears its head on the aforementioned "Convex Mirror" with a whirring synth line evoking a babbling forest brook, backdropped by minimalist drums.

Longtime followers will be pleased to find he hasn't abandoned mesmerizing vocal chops, though here they're dubbed and spun until they're ghosts in his machines, like on the rattling jacker "Perlant" and the twitchy title track.

The two biggest highlights are the two longest songs, where the producer takes the time to let his ideas gently unspool.

"Nordschleife"—named after the infamous German racing track known for testing the mettle of even the most skilled drivers—samples Los Angeles singer-songwriter Kelsey Belkin, whose melancholic refrain ("You make me cry") is looped and laid over airy synths and jungle breaks.

The EP culminates with the sensual mid-tempo house cut "Avatar Beach," where Aubin-Dionne deftly balances driving percussion and feathery trance pads like a digital illustrator finding new colors.

Describing the making of Feel Infinite last year, the producer said, "I love the club as social microcosm.

You get snapshots of people's true colors and I love that for the good and the bad."

While Fever Focus is deliberately less conceptual, it taps into a wide array of moods and textures while expanding the arsenal of dancefloor anthems at his disposal.

For proof of its effectiveness, look no further than the recording of Aubin-Dionne's four-and-a-half hour B2B set with Scottish DJ and LuckyMe labelmate Eclair Fifi this past summer.

At the midway point, "Convex Mirror" is dropped, and you can practically feel the energy in the sweaty Toronto venue rise as the dancers cheer.

Almost a decade since he released his first EP, he's still finding new paths to euphoria.

Users were asked to spread the word and forward mails to friends. The record was finally released on all formats on Halloween 2018. In a new precedent for the site, Pitchfork reviewed the mixtape while still a private link, and called GADA "...a daring, eclectic mix of experimental R&B...", stating "...he won't stay a secret for long."
 On July 6th LuckyMe released the first studio album by New Orleans-based James Richard Prudhomme aka Suicideyear. Titled "Colour The Weather" - the release explored themes of family, nostalgia and alienation. Singles included 'Tired' and "Days Forever featuring Georgia Barnes". The album art saw a collaboration between friends Ezra Miller & Mickey Joyce who together with Prudhomme produced impressionistic generative collages from locations around Baton Rouge and New Orleans.


After initially receiving little attention, a 26 October article in "The Mail on Sunday" led to widespread criticism of Brand, Ross and the editorial decisions of the BBC, with the event becoming known as "Sachsgate" or "Manuelgate" (a reference to Sachs' character in "Fawlty Towers").

# Sachsgate: The obscene prank calls from Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross that 'haunted' Andrew Sachs before his death

The Fawlty Towers actor, who died last week after four-year battle with dementia, said the ordeal was "hugely distressing"

Andrew Sachs was an acclaimed actor and beloved star of Fawlty Towers, who sadly died after a four-year battle with dementia, and during that time he was still haunted by a highly-publicised prank call from Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross.

The obscene call sparked what is now known as Sachsgate.

Sachs, who was known for planning Spanish waiter Manuel in the hit show, died at a care home last week at the age of 86 after a secret battle with dementia.

Back in 2014, he spoke at length about how he was still haunted by the offensive phone call from Ross and Brand, six years after the incident.

At the time, Brand and Russell left several vulgar messages on Sachs' answerphone, bragging that comedian Russell had had sex with his granddaughter Georgina Baillie.

Andrew Sachs said the ordeal would haunt him forever

In an article titled 'Cruelty that will haunt me forever' for the Daily Mail in 2014, he went on to describe the anguish his family suffered throughout the ordeal.

"For all my family, the unpleasant incident that hit the headlines in October 2008 was hugely distressing," he wrote.

Andrew Sachs' 'biggest regret was missing out on Doctor Who' leading role

Sachs was asked by a BBC Radio show producer if he wanted to be interviewed for a pre-recorded part of the show, but he was too busy.

"Their lewd banter was deeply hurtful for me, my wife, our daughter and our granddaughter.

It not only caused pain but huge stress to the family," he recalled.

The actor lodged a complaint to the BBC and held a meeting with Director General Mark Thompson.

The BBC was slapped with a £150,000 fine from Ofcom.

The pre-recorded radio show was aired and the BBC later sacked Brand and suspended Ross for three months, admitting the remarks were "grossly offensive" and a "serious breach of editorial standards".

Ross had reportedly described the incident, for which he was suspended without pay for 12 weeks, as "fun".

"Maybe it was fun for him, but it was excruciating for us," Sachs said.

Russell Brand on 'The Jonathan Ross Show' penned an apology letter to Sachs in 2014

"To be honest, the whole Brand/Ross saga remains a painful experience that we'd very much like to put behind us.

Brand reportedly penned a letter to Sachs finally apologising for his controversial radio prank in 2014.

In a letter written in 2014, obtained by the Daily Mail, the funnyman apologised for the "distress, sadness and turbulence" caused.

It read: "I apologise for the distress, sadness and turbulence this has brought into your life.

I apologise for the damage I have caused to your family relationships and for robbing you of your peace of mind.

This behaviour and the consequences you have suffered as a result of my actions are unacceptable.

Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross sparked over 40,000 complaints to the BBC over the incident

"This is not the man I want to be and I wholeheartedly apologise to you both.

"I am sorry too that it has taken so long for me to write to you expressing this sentiment to which the two of you are entitled... please do not hesitate to contact me...

My sincere apologies for the hurt I have caused you and your family."

At the time Andrew said he was appalled by the incident, saying: "Lessons must be learned and I hope they will be."

# Swedish fighter jet crashes after collision with birds

Published time: 21 Aug, 2018 10:11 Edited time: 22 Aug, 2018 11:15

A Swedish fighter plane has crashed in the southern part of the Scandinavian country after colliding with a flock of birds.

The pilot ejected from the aircraft and has been taken to the hospital, according to reports.

Sweden's Armed Forces said one of its Jas Gripen jets crashed after the unexpected bird strike.

"The pilot bailed out and he has apparently waved at the rescue helicopter and he seems to be okay at least.

We don't know much more at the moment," spokesperson Johan Lundberg told TT news agency, as cited by the Local Sweden.

The pilot was transported to the hospital, although his condition is reportedly good "under the circumstances."

No one else is believed to have been injured in the accident.

Originally from Yugoslavia, Preki was living and working in the US in 1985 but when he was offered a spot on the American national team he applied for U.S. citizenship which was granted on October 25, 1996.

(meta data) PUBLISHED DATETIME: 2008-04-02T19:04:36-0400

The official site of the USMNT Soccer Players with soccer news, schedule, statistics, players, interviews, and exclusive stories.

Preki Radosavljevic dazzled crowds with his magical left foot and incredible free kicks through the first 10 seasons of Major League Soccer.

He scored 79 goals, registered 112 assists and was named MLS MVP two times (1997 and 2003).

He retired after the 2005 season as a member of the Kansas City Wizards during his second stint with the team after also playing for the Miami Fusion.

After becoming a US citizen in 1996, Preki appeared 28 times under both Steve Sampson and Bruce Arena for the US National Team and was a member of the US team that played in the 1998 World Cup in France.

As an international, he will always be remembered for scoring the goal that beat Brazil 1-0 on February 10, 1998, which came off a free kick with his lethal left foot.

Upon retiring, Preki joined Bob Bradley's staff as an assistant coach with Chivas USA for the 2006 season.

When Bradley left to take over as the head coach of the US National Team, Preki was named as the head coach for Chivas USA on January 17, 2007.

In 2010, he took over as coach of Toronto FC, departing with director of soccer Mo Johnston in September.

That same year he was elected to the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

In July, 2013 Preki became the first coach of Sacramento's expansion USL-Pro team.

Suffered a fractured fibula and dislocated left ankle during a preseason exhibition match (2/21) and missed four months of the season.

Came on at halftime @ CHI (9/1) and played the final 45 minutes.

Underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle on 9/10 to repair damage that had not completely healed from his offseason ankle surgery.

Defying age, Preki played and started 30 games for the Wizards, logging nearly 2,700 minutes.

His season total of 12 goals and 17 assists, plus his still-devilish left foot, won him the MLS Most Valuable Player award, making him the oldest-ever winner of the award at age 40.

2002: Finished the 2002 season as the team's leading scorer with 24 points (7g, 10a).

2002: Became MLS' all-time leading scorer with 223 points (65g, 93a) on March 23.

1992-94: Spent two seasons with Everton netting four goals before moving to Portsmouth.

A perennial all-star, he is considered among the best indoor players of all time.

1983-85: Played two seasons with Red Star Belgrade.

DC United is without Wayne Rooney due to a red card suspension with their star player leaving at the end of the season and the playoffs on the line.

Geography isn't enough to guarantee a rivalry in MLS with the Galaxy vs San Jose still the bigger match in California in the era of LAFC.

St Louis is the latest MLS expansion team, showing what Major League Soccer wants from its bidders and highlighting issues for teams already in MLS.
