Karma and Kismet by Michael Shandler “The man who comes back through the Door in the Wall will never be quite the same as the man who went out. He will be wiser but less sure, happier but less self-satisfied, humbler in acknowledging his ignorance, yet better equipped to understand the … systematic reasoning to the unfathomable mystery which it tries, forever vainly, to comprehend.” Author Michael Shandler, in more than one way, in more than one time and in more than one place, was on a lifelong journey of self-discovery, often relating to the words above by Aldous Huxley.…

It hasn’t even been a year since Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israeli soldiers and civilians on the other side of the Gaza border, igniting a long and deadly conflict that is still very much ongoing.

Jennifer is coming for Tamra. Pic credit: Bravo Jennifer Aydin and Tamra Judge have been feuding over the last few months. The feud has been one-sided because Tamra has used her podcast, Two Ts In A Pod, to spew hate about the Real Housewives of New Jersey star. Tamra took issue with Jennifer and her fight with Danielle Cabral, with the Real Housewives of Orange County star conceding that Jennifer should not have made fun of Danielle’s husband on camera. “She’s just a nasty human being.

Identifying anomalous operations of satellites is more than a technical task. It must depend on human intelligence gathering and advance warning.  Missile launch detection and characterization is a longstanding example of how to overcome similar challenges.

Two weeks later, Concord is dead. A live-service title, that was promising a roadmap of post-launch content updates over multiple seasons, didn’t even make it past summer. After the game’s calamitous launch, with an estimated 25,000 copies sold across PS5 and PC and an all-time peak player count of less than 700 on Steam, Sony seems…
