    Microsoft asks some employees in China to move to other countries

    Microsoft has asked at least 100 of its employees in China to consider moving to other countries, according to Chinese state media reports. The reports come as relations between Beijing and Washington deteriorate over technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and clean energy. Microsoft employees, mostly involved with cloud computing, were recently offered the opportunity to work in the United States, Australia or Ireland, among other countries, state-run outlet The Paper said in a report...

  • Amy is a “worthy winner” of ‘carer of the year’ award

    Graysons Solicitors sponsored the 'carer of the year' award, which was presented at Chesterfield’s Technique Stadium recently as part of the annual Community Awards. Staveley Councillor Allan Ogle was one of Amy Rodda’s nominees. He singled out her "selfless efforts”. Katie Birch, a senior private client advisor at Graysons, said: "I’ve seen first-hand the amazing and selfless work of some of the region’s carers through my work with various charities. There’s no doubt Amy Rodda was a worthy...

  • ‘Chelsea’ Asked for Nude Pictures. Then the Sextortion Began.

    The Instagram message popped up from a girl named Chelsea: “Howdy.” David didn’t know anyone named Chelsea, but he clicked through her profile: She had brown hair and a nice smile; under her name was a quote from the Bible. He thought it was sort of weird that she was messaging him, a stranger, in the middle of a workday, but her pouty selfies made that easy to ignore. He was hesitant when she asked him to chat, but soon her flirty messages escalated to a volley of explicit pictures, and David,

  • She didn't know there was an Amy Winehouse inside of her. Then the voice came out

    For her first meeting about “Back to Black” in 2022, actor Marisa Abela made an instinctive decision to show up as herself, rather than dressed in a way that hinted at Amy Winehouse’s iconic look. She was the only one there not in some kind of costume. “It would feel incredibly inauthentic for me to turn up at that meeting doing some kind of shtick, like if I was chewing gum or I stubbed my cigarette out before I walked in,” Abela, 27, says, speaking at London’s Ham Yard Hotel on a particularly...

  • Column: Hillary Clinton’s Conspiracy Privilege

    It’s hard to watch the incessant gavel-to-gavel coverage of the Donald Trump trial in Manhattan without feeling like you’re traveling in a time warp back to 2016. We’re back reliving the “Access Hollywood” tape and talk of how Trump would have never been elected except porn star Stormy Daniels accepted a six-figure check to keep quiet. The richest vein of hypocrisy on this adultery-mangles-electability question flows through the Clintons. Hillary Clinton appeared on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" to...
