One of my all-time favorite movies. Maybe its time for my 50th watch!

He woke up late, won't happen again etc etc. I've got 4 trainers with the gym because I do 6 days a week but only 1 guy is always late. It's also distracting when we're working out and he runs off to swich machines on in the middle of a rep. They always want me to commit 100+ hours each time I renew and paid upfront, so I guess being punctual is not too much to ask. In a way waking up at 6am everyday prepping for gym requires some discipline, I expect no less from the trainers.

He'll improve for sure, until the English Premier League starts and Arsenal (his team) plays a late (+7) game on Sunday / Monday morning, then I'll need to have a conversation with the gym manager again.

Now he just needs Putin and Ramzan to nominate him.

I pay by the hour, and I need to start sharp at 7 and finish at 8, then get ready for work by 9. If the gym is open at 7am, they should be in earlier and ready to go by 7am.

What changed?

Ben-Gvir has been convicted eight times for offenses that include racism and supporting a terrorist organization. The army banned him from compulsory military service when he was a teen, deeming his views too extreme.

But it's ok to be Minister of National Security...

 

Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff and U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee toured a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation distribution site in Rafah, Gaza’s southernmost city, which has been almost completely destroyed and is now a largely depopulated Israeli military zone.

 

The federal Bureau of Prisons said Friday that Maxwell had been transferred to Bryan, Texas, but did not explain the circumstances. Her attorney confirmed the move but also declined to discuss the reasons for it.

 

The Fed has the responsibility of stabilizing prices and maximizing employment. Powell has held its benchmark rate for overnight loans constant this year, saying that Fed officials needed to see what impact Trump’s massive tariffs had on inflation.

 

International outcry over images of emaciated children and increasing reports of hunger-related deaths have pressured Israel to let more aid into the Gaza Strip. This week, Israel paused fighting in parts of Gaza and airdropped food. But aid groups and Palestinians say the changes have only been incremental and are not enough to reverse what food experts say is a “ worst-case scenario of famine” unfolding in the war-ravaged territory.

Then we'd be talking about "How Did Obesity Get So Much Worse in Gaza?"

 

Less food is going into Gaza now than during most other times in the war. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed while heading toward aid sites. Many others are suffering from serious malnutrition, and Gazan health officials say scores have died from it.

 

When President Trump slammed India this week for purchasing large amounts of Russian oil, threatening a “penalty” tariff on top of a 25 percent levy, it came like a lightning bolt. India has been a leading and conspicuous buyer of Russian energy since the invasion of Ukraine three years ago, as most Western countries curtailed their purchases or stopped buying altogether.

The Amateur arrives as a well-intentioned but ultimately uneven addition to the espionage-thriller canon. Its intellectual pursuits and grounded character depiction provide a fresh perspective but are occasionally compromised by underutilized cast members, restrained action sequences, and narrative density that detract from expected pulse-pounding excitement. While Malek’s portrayal offers a uniquely introspective spy, The Amateur’s slow-burning approach may not satisfy those seeking outright thrills or gripping emotional stakes.

 

Votes in the Senate made clear that the longtime bipartisan consensus in support of Israel is, at least for the moment, in tatters.

The surprise move, in a declaration endorsed on Tuesday by the 22 member nations of the Arab League, also condemned Hamas’s Oct. 7 attacks on Israel, which set off the devastating war in Gaza.

President Trump on Thursday unveiled a battery of new tariffs targeting exports from dozens of U.S. trading partners, forging ahead with a potentially disruptive plan to escalate his global trade war.

 

Global outrage at the Netanyahu government’s actions has grown since the war began, and the suffering of children in the enclave has accelerated the disdain.

Ultimately, this film pirouettes elegantly on the surface but stumbles where the narrative heart should beat strongest. It’s a cinematic recital that, while skillfully orchestrated, fails to hit the truly resonant notes expected from a story of vengeance and identity.
