"Charlotte, New England, New England, go to Charlotte, almost 70 K in the stands in Charlotte. They didn't see the best possible product on the field from sir minty and the boys, by the two crowds over 65,000 on opening day. That's a record for MLS. That's awesome. Another one in Atlanta as well. So Charlotte have matched a two in St. Louis, so an opportunity at redemption, but St. Louis, top of the Western Conference. Yeah, I mean, they didn't generate a ton and you wanted to see more from Enzo capet, but that's not what this is about. This is the Noel buck appreciation hour, a full 75 minutes in. Sorry, Seattle's top. But a 3.4 differential sorry actors. Sorry, it's my bad. My bad, my bad. No, but appreciation hour. Who wants to kick it off? I'll just say I thought he was I thought he was the man of the match in this one. Just doing everything that the revs struggled to do last year in deep midfield next to Matt pollster, like winning the ball and being able to play progressively, playing safe without losing possession when they needed to, allowing pollster to go forward a little bit more, which I don't think is necessarily the best thing, but it's good to have that club in the bag. And then just his reading of the game, making it hard for Charlotte to play through or to play out. And we literally saw it on the goal. It's buck who makes the interception to keep Charlotte pinned in that leads to eventually to Henry Kessler's goal. It was a really, really composed performance in that spot from a 17 year old kid. I thought it was on par with or even better than anything we saw last year from obed Vargas and obed Vargas played real minutes in the CCL final. And I think that Noel Bach based upon what we've seen to him in MLS and a little bit that I've seen from MLS next pro. He is an elite prospect at that position. And maybe not even prospect at this point. He maybe he's just the starter. Yeah, before that they made the latif blessing trade, I had them written in as a starter. And I've talked to people at the revs and they said, even after that trade, look, he's going to get minutes our home girls are going to get minutes, but we're really excited about book. And I will say this off season Tottenham are interested in them. I can just say that flat. He was supposed to go on a training stint to Tottenham in the winter, but that kind of fell through. But that's the kind of club. That's the kind of, like you said, Doyle elite prospect. These are the clubs that are looking at Noel bug. And again, I think that he's due for a breakout. I'm not sure how you play. I guess you could do a tight diamond at some points to get buck on the field with blessing because they didn't trade for blessing for no reason, so they're gonna get minutes for them, and obviously crawl this hill being the best point in one of the best players in the league, but yeah, I think that this was an awesome performance. He fits the Tottenham way, you know, central midfielder with pretty much a word as a name. He goes with Harry winks and Oliver skip. Is that the new guy? No buck. Jump right in. Similar trophy heritage as well for Tottenham in New England.

"This is Bloomberg businessweek with Carol masher and Bloomberg quick takes Tim Steven from Bloomberg radio. Gotta say I think about this a lot. I know my daughter does as well. And that is fast fashion the impact it has on our environment to maybe it's why I know we're super into vintage and kind of secondhand shops. Yeah, I mean, that's what younger people are doing right now. They're buying stuff that they don't call it used secondhand. No, exactly. Our next story, it's in the magazine. It talks about specifically fast fashion. The recycling myth that it's burying the developing world in waste. You can find it in the latest issue of Bloomberg businessweek, it's out on newsstands now online and on the Bloomberg terminal. It's all part of the Bloomberg new economy form, takeover. Bloomberg news Vancouver bureau chief, Natalie oboe Pearson, co wrote the piece, she and business week editor Joel Weber explained the brutal toll that discarded garments are having on the environment. I think many listeners Joel will be familiar with these boxes. We have one in the basement of our building. And it gives the impression that old clothes that you put in this box end up somehow recycled or somewhere in another country and being worn. But I get the impression that that's not always the case. Well, that's ultimately what Natalie and company that's ultimately what Natalie and company read about here. And it is eye opening the visuals that accompany this story are frightening. We've talked a lot about how plastic has polluted the world and there's a gyre in the Pacific Ocean that's just filled with plastic and particles. What I don't think we've really talked about enough is Natalie and company have written about which is fabric is in many ways an even bigger problem. And a lot of this story, unfortunately, it takes place in the developing world where our garments end up. And so Natalie really dives into here is this myth that some of the biggest apparel companies in the world help perpetuate, which is this idea that there is something about fabric recycling. And it's just not actually true. There's a human element of this, but let's just start with the numbers Natalie. How little of the stuff that we recycle actually ends up getting recycled and why so little? Yeah, it's actually really mind boggling. I couldn't believe the figure when I first came across it myself. So less than 1% of used clothing is actually recycled back into new Carmen's. There, you know, there is a ton of clothing that will get what we call, I guess, down cycling. So it might get shredded up and turned into the insulation in our car roofs into mattress stuffing, even like bedding for mice and pharmaceutical labs. But what you have to remember there is that's just prolonging the life of this textiles, maybe why one step and eventually those items will end up in a landfill too. The technology and the infrastructure simply do not exist yet to take used clothing en masse and turn it back into garments. Okay, you mentioned landfill there because there's this other really crazy aside almost in the story that I just want to take for a second here, which is in Accra, there was a whole landfill that had this expected lifespan of 25 years and how quickly did it actually fill up? Three. Wow. Oh my God. So imagine that we build landfills that have this, we think it's going to maybe have like a couple of decades and we're filling it up with clothes like almost overnight. And where do those clothes come from, Natalie? From what they call dead white people's clothing. So it's coming from the rich world. So help me out here. I think, you know, I shop at certain stores. I do look at stuff. I know my daughter does. We try to do the right thing. We think that, you know, I'm not going to well, you can name names. Whether it's Zara and others, like H and M, H and M, big time you're like, look what we're doing and there's even clothes that have tags on it. This is a recycled clothing item. So you think it's pretty good. So what are they doing if only 1% are actually getting recycled? What are these chains actually doing? And what are we all really buying? Yeah, so when it says recycled fiber in a garment on those tags, what's usually happening is it's plastic bottles that have been turned into polyester thread and then turned into like your puffer jacket or whatever. And that in itself is problematic because they are taking plastic bottles out of the beverage stream where they could be recycled back into plastic bottles a number of times and turning them into a garment that will not be recycled. Just a quick little caveat there is a limited amount of what they call mechanical recycling. So things like cotton and wool, the pure what do you call it pure textiles can actually be shredded and then like woven back a spun back into a yarn but it shortens the threads so it has to be then blended with virgin thread as well. So none of it is actually recycling in the way I think consumers think of it in the way that it's sold to us that there's a sort of like perpetual loop where we throw away our clothes and they turn back into the stuff that we see in the shelves and hanging in H and M but one thing I mean we do focus a little bit on H and M and Zara and the story and the pace at which the fashion churn has sort of revved up in the last couple of decades, but I do want to point out that this is an industry wide thing like regardless of the retailer you're talking about, you know, when we grow up when I grew up when I was young, there were two collections a year. You went in in the fall and winter and they stayed there for the whole season and then you went to spring and summer. Now let me name your brand.

You know, when you're a cyclist, a professional cyclist, I think, you know, quite early on in your career. Even if it's subconsciously, people tend to identify what it is that's helping them be a good bite rider. You know, for some people, it's having a good coach and a good trade in program. And for a lot of it, the vast majority of other people they'll find big gains in nutrition. People find gains in sleep, things like that. For me, there was a fellow called Steve Peters in the Great Britain cycling setup, who was a psychologist. And I engaged them. I read the books that he told me to read. I did the homework that he told me to do. And for me, this is not going to be the same for everyone, but for me personally, the mindset worker did with Steve. All those years ago. A little lightbulb went off in my head and I was like, you know, obviously it's important to have a good coach, good race program, good training program. It's important to sleep well to eat well, but quite quickly, I identified that as perhaps the most important thing in performing performing on the big day under pressure, you know, that takes a certain mindset. You know, we've already spoke about going out in The Rain. You know, when it's hailing 6 hours straight, you know, that's not so much a physical challenge. It's a mind game. And, you know, doing it year in year out and you know, it can be a relatively tough place at times. But if you've got the right sort of mindset and, you know, you're looking at the world through the right set of eyes, then it's a great way to make a living. It's a wonderful opportunity. And you know, any day you spend riding your bike as a professional science is a great one. So you know I enjoyed working with Steve and when Steve left the program..

That's a perfectly legitimate reading of uniting the movement if you look at it and say it's a very permissive approach to trying to set an organization's direction that was deliberate in the recognition. That by doing that we were actually seeking to corral around a common purpose to be permissive. To that point. I think the distinctions come into critical areas. One is the way we can. We are looking more to align with the existing structures elsewhere either within government or within public policy so we are not by any means determined the in order to improve public health. We've somehow got take on responsibility for public. Health will ambien is in uniting. The movement is to align properly with. Let me give you an example in public health. One of the things. That's emerging quite quickly now across a broad range and spectrum is the idea of social prescribing through primary healthcare professionals. Gp's of others and the principal being actually rather than just automatically writing a prescription for a drug that actually for healthcare providers gp's to think about turning opportunities where people can be engaged in the local community in an activity or some form engagement that can support the treatment of a problem with that. they have physical activity. Being active is obviously a element of that job is properly then to align with that the organizations that we fund in support so that they can actually be effective. The one of the challenges to social prescribing is the way that gp's historically have viewed the this sort of marketplace out for them and they do not see the know what's available or that a trust it and actually that link and the role that the link workers play a critical place for us to go so we can be much more effective by engaging with working partnership with the organizations that are driving social prescribing than simply trying to just invest in every single relationship with every single gp..

I'm obviously very consciously aware that a grassroots in community sports sports england has a responsibility around the way that organizations clubs leagues run themselves and making sure they're safe making sure they're inclusive making sure that accessible and he don't actually have to stretch too far then to the governance of sport at that level. It's still about principles of good governance in my view being well run well-governed thoughtful about the people seeking to involve and i think the super league may have come and gone eighth thing but i think it's impact is perhaps going to be one that enables a better look at the governance of sport. Generally and it'll be through. Football's lens is because it was full of a super league but be football tends to take on the sort of first mover. It's sport doesn't it.

I don't have to do anything anybody else. I choose variety of causes things engaged. Didn't involved in a privilege massive privilege to be opposition. But i could you know just like you. I have not the slightest regret in leaving the postal service. Five years i look back and some of my colleagues are still that i think how why For example zone issue for me team for together in north west england full soleus products that several years in london in different varieties senior roles but some chiefs las cruces as chiefs in other institutions. There'd be never ten. Fifteen twenty. Years is important for me to move on to let somebody else have the opportunities that i be given out. You know chief. Constables generally any five year contract and they move on and somebody else could stepping. But i think the most crucial service needs to learn from that. I know some of my former colleagues have beaten in chief rose somewhere in the country. Twenty years And that that might be because they they enjoy But they need to think we need to think about the bigger picture and that's about bringing other people and that won't happen if you hope the rose. I also got the impression as well. As from debris sage i can t debt.

Primary isn't as years. it was pretty constant. I mean i've written about in my book. You mentioned prosecutor starts with the whole chapter or pat Might being attacked by three guys without such years. Old school And that was my experience Unexperienced many young people now have access to google have access to the internet. I had to go to the library to study and to read. And so that meant i was putting myself in the line of five frequently. Perhaps others were back then. But as i said because i had a safe environment in the safety safe loving family home and neighbors that will look out for each other. I can feel safe despite the fact that i knew that there was a threat out there. Has it changed. Its moreover what was less overt. I think back then it was. You know you saw them. On the street now big ziprecrui social media and the online will the online threats. You don't necessarily see your enemy or the people who see you as their enemy and I think that's worrying damaging. I think the people are motivated. Now that i can recall.

Because of who. I am your time and time again. It some patchy some other abusive term rather than saying i don't like what he did what he said. Which is what you would say valujet.

I'm not sure exactly where you're going with this, but you know the the notice. In question question is what it is answer. Harris. Yes. Every package of cigarettes warns that Smoking Causes Cancer. And do you believe that climate change is happening and it's threatening? The air we breathe in the lottery. Senator Again I was wondering where you were going with that. You have asked me a series of questions like that are completely uncontroversial like. Nineteen is infectious whether smoking causes cancer and then trying to analogize that eliciting an opinion on me that as a very contentious matter opinion from me that has on a very contentious matter of public debate and I will not do that. It will not express view on a matter of public policy especially when that is politically controversial because that's inconsistent with the judicial role as I have explained. Major plant here that you believe it's debatable.

I cannot answer that question because I cannot suggest agreement or disagreement with precedents of the Supreme Court. All those precedents by me now is a seventh circuit judge and I to be confirmed. I would be responsible for applying the law star decisive to all of them but you think of how you would feel. As a gay or Lesbian American to hear that you can't answer.

Switching Cryptocurrency Markets On Binance
"One of the confusing things about exchanges is the the screen looks exactly the same no matter what market you're looking at. The only clue as to what you're looking at is the asset pair listed at the top. So the order in which the assets appear matters. So when it comes to reading the numbers Ath Batiste. Is Different to BTC e t h is essentially the same market is just looked at it from different points of view and we WanNa know which side where viewing from. So where reading the market correctly. So. The first thing to know is the asset this listed I last cold the base asset and one is listed. Second is called the Tim's asset. So the base and the Thames. When we look at the price, it's a ratio between those two assets. And because markets are constantly moving, we need some kind of anchor something that doesn't change so that we can understand what's happening. And this is accomplished by the based asset always being one unit. So. If we're looking at E. T. H. BTC market well, I'm looking at one. Age and its price in BTC. If I then changed the market. By clicking on the pair. Let's say I change it to exit P. BTC. One Unit X. P. and its price in BTC. So that's one ex-. Priced in Bitcoin. So to be clear. The Thames Asset. Is what the market is priced in. Now switching markets is as simple as just did is simple as clicking on the current trading pack. And then clicking on the market, you want to change it to. Add suggests that it's best to actually just type in the search box because this'll fill to the list and make it much simpler than scrolling. So whatever you type in here. It will filter down to just those assets that have the letters that you typed. This relying you knowing the ticket symbol for the YOU WANNA trade though so If, you know the name of the asset, but you don't know it's ticker symbol has a tip for you. You can go to coin market Cap Dot Com and you just set for it by name. So let me set for truthfully. So it is true flip. And when you go to the page for the asset is says the name of the project that for and there is the ticket symbol right? They're. So the ticket symbol for true it is T.. F.. L.. Now, the next thing you need to know is that assets may be priced in different assets. So let's go back to bite on CNN and when I click on the trading day, you'll know his here the top the rationally four Thames currencies or four Tam's assets to choose from. You can be in be Biden's his own coin Bitcoin Alz, and then USD. For the sake of simplicity, I would stick with Bitcoin, BTC and the US dollar coins. They're also the markets that typically have the most trading activity, which is a good thing because when you play in order to buy or sell a Crypto, you want it to be filled sooner rather than late. You don't want to sit there waiting for someone to come in in a process that order. said to be clear what is listed in this box depends on the Thames you have selected. So here like like BNB. All this stuff is only only coins at trade against being be if I'm on BTC tap, then everything appears is only the stuff that trades against bitcoin and so on. Now, this is important because the set box is also limited to whatever tab you have selected. So if I'm on the US Dullah Tab for example, and then I put in the search box. S. Well, I'm only going to see this edge results for IOS trading Pez against the US dollar coins. The. Good thing about finance and the search feature is that will I can leave the sandwich in there, and then just click across the various tabs and that stays in the second books. So I can see by doing this all the different things that IOS trades against. Now if you enter the ticket symbol in the set box and nothing appears, then that's most likely means that the asset is not even listed for trading on the exchange you're using. So let's search for true flip again. So we did T. F. L.. Was the ticker symbol we just found out about. and. Well. nope. In this case Binz doesn't list true flip anyway. This is also one of the things you can use coin market cap for when we go back to Komaki happy when you sit for an asset. And Scroll Down does these tabs down here you've got charts and then you've got markets if you click a markets. And then we scroll down even further. You can see here true flip is only listed on one exchange, which is q coin, and it trades in two markets once against Bitcoin a once against if theory. So it's a quick way finding out if the asset you actually want to trade is listed on your exchange on not. In this case if I wanted to buy or sell true flip out after go and create an account with the exchange that's my only option. Just to close off this lesson, then drive at home. Let me go back to the trading screen. Unless load OBE. yaas BTC SO CETERA Yeltsin the such books make sure on the Bitcoin Tab. Click on it. Make sure that the symbols at the top his BTC unlike I said Elliot, the whole interface remains the same in it structure but the contents of all these various elements is now filled with information about your speedy see. Now. I'm GONNA break all this down for you and explain it step by step to gauge that point of crypto exchange mastery. This lesson was just focused specifically on switching markets and showing that insight about the base and the Thames currency. That's how we determine what something is priced in.

"I rent her for the first time. After I read a review of her new book in The Los Angeles Review of books the book is called Albeit. It's published by the Wonderful Poetry Press Copper Canyon and I have been living in the wake of my parents death for some time and been living in an amalgam of grief and sorrow and memory loss and this book obe. It is remarkable book about the death of the poets parents written in the form of orbits of obituaries brief obits eventually as the book proceeds golfed is lost is language dies. The death of the parent is the death of much of what we value in life. If we allow ourselves to feel it now as I understand it this book had a burst of Creation. That led to your writing poem after poem after poem. What was that like? It was exhausting actually but necessary My mom died in in August of Twenty fifteen and it was so incredibly depressing in so many ways and the typical things that happen to people. You know you just feel so so bad worse than you've ever felt and could imagine that you could ever feel and I've always written as a way to sort of navigate the world but I didn't want to write traditional allergies for all sorts of reasons and so I just read a lot in those may be six to eight months when I wasn't writing anything in I read a lot of nonfiction. Actually so books about grief. Joan diddy in Meghan. O'rourke really wonderful writers. I I read them all and Sometime in maybe February or March I was sitting in a car and listening to NPR and Heard a piece on a documentary called obits in the documentary is all about obituary writers. And so there's just something about the way that that word just hung in my ears with that long and short t- that I went home in started just writing these obituaries. Pichu Aries for everything that we lose when someone dies and that's sort of what happened with this process. It was two weeks I hardly slept. Hardly ate ice just sort of kept on going and it was this really Cathartic Less Azeri process for my own grieving. Had that ever happened to you before a period of inspiration. That didn't let up. Yeah I after I had my children. I just didn't have any time left for any so I'm sure lots of people of your listeners can relate to that and Yes so I ended up writing. Starting maybe with my third book the boss which Mix Sweeney's did and I just you know right in pockets so any pocket that I can find if I'm feeling that I in that sort of how Britain since that book is in you know in cars in waiting for them to finish things and That kind of inspiration kind of hits me now in ways it. It never used it before. And I don't know if that's a function of just getting older or just not having time or a combination of all those things and feeling a lot more passion and deep nece and Emotions that I hadn't felt before when I was younger. This tawdry book bit by my Guest Victoria. Jiang was that rare thing for poetry books. It was useful. It was giving me instruction on because among the obituaries there are several that Vittoria rights for herself. The self who knew her parents who lived with her parents. You become aware really. That part of your grief is for the person you knew before who took it. As a matter of course that your parents might be elderly. They might be ill but they were always there and suddenly a language that you're used to speaking that you don't really necessarily regard is particularly consulting. That language is gone and you need. It's consolation anyone. Who's how'd anyone died? Hardly feels all of these things But I had never experienced that before and you know my father is actually still alive but he died twelve years ago in my mind because he lost all of his ability to communicate to me in ways that we used to talk In my mother you know used to have a very sort of our own language in many ways and it sounds so cliche but every single person I feel like we know where we need and we know well. We have our own special way of communicating with that person and special looks. You know little little ways of not saying things or just words that only use with each other and when they die. You don't really think about this when they're alive because you take them for granted but they take it all away with them.

Trade hopes lift stocks as recession fears recede; Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq hit new record highs
"All three major US indices. This season did Monday at new record highs the Dow industrial average rose point four percent setting its first closing record since July the S. and P. Five hundred also added point four percent and the Nasdaq composite advanced point six percent stocks were lifted by rallying bank and energy shares strong earnings reports and investor optimism some of the progress of U. S. China trade negotiations but while US stocks continue to hit new highs global stocks are still lagging behind joining me now with more details Wall Street Journal reporter Amorth Ram Kumar so amorth let's recap last week which was a big one for the S. and P. Five hundred and the Nasdaq in particular but we also had a lot of strong or at least solid economic data including the October jobs report to help boost US stocks that's exactly right and the key would the data points is that they're really coming in better than feared so there have been these really powerful recession fears for much of the year and we've seen big moves toward safe haven assets like bonds and gold old but the jobs report was better than expected third quarter GDP figures at one point nine percent were better than expected and again we continue to see really healthy consumer consumer pockets of strength in the labor market and that combination has been really powerful on Wall Street this year okay so let's talk about some of those points of divergence between US stocks and global stocks how much of a gap is there and what are the major factors that are driving US indices this year that verges about ten percentage points or so so that's an mm p five hundred after it's Monday rallies up about twenty three percent for the year and a gauge of global stocks excluding the US up about thirteen percent or so and that again shows how much investors favoring this US region that is kind of behaving like a safe haven almost where there is steady consumer spending the labor market looks unhealthy and that's a really sharp contrast with the rest of the world that's dealing with stagnant growth prospects negative interest rates in some areas and a lot of protests around the globe obe these other geo-political factors so even though the US looks expensive by Awad measures looking at earnings people continue to pay for that premium and that kind of safety instability yeah what about the global slowdown isn't there a chance that could eventually reached the US and there are other headwinds we talk about as well U. S. China trade dispute comes to mind what are some of the things that could potentially throw the US off course here though it'd be the big one that global slowdown rippling to the US that's something people have been talking about for a really long time but frankly we just haven't seen that a ton in the data growth in the US is slowing but again one point nine percent for third quarter growth and a little bit slower projections for the the fourth quarter and again two thirds of the economy a little bit more than two-thirds consumer spending so even though the manufacturing sector Israeli struggling consumer continues to be steady Eddie and buoy the US really when again overseas we're seeing a lot of issues it is really interesting though because people say a trade deal or progress toward one would boost these is export oriented countries in Europe and Asia but the fall of capital again continues to boost the US and that shows how much this is kind of sentiment driven at the moment and people want that stability for now so to focus on the bright side here what are some of those factors as we look towards the end of the year already that could keep this trend going in the US it's all going to come down to really the economic and earnings data one thing we haven't talked about yet is that third quarter earnings for large companies are generally coming in better than expected we're in companies with more US exposure again outperforming so that's a positive sign for some people and again as we get closer to the twenty twenty election that something people are going to be looking for because that could again throw another wrinkle into this and cost more volatility the biggest thing will also be trade the market is still so hyper sensitive to any positive or negative news so any signs that this phase one deal isn't progressing as expected could be a negative but for now the US and China both seem to be saying the

KKR agrees buyout deal with German media giant
"The influential German media group, Axel Springer is seeking to go private with the help of US investor K are the greet paves that freeing itself from short-term market scrutiny will play the past for ambitious expansion plans Katie Martin discusses the move with our ash CG and vice versa. So tell us a bit about the history of Axel Springer. Where does the company fit into the German media scene will re company was founded right after the war by access Clinger, the hugely powerful archetype, German media tycoon. The power of the company really has long rested on ownership of bills, the German, tabloid paper, which is the biggest selling newspaper in Europe and hugely influential still in Berlin circles. What has made spring, quite special was always had a very strong political stance is very conservative paper. It's as editorial principles that or the journalists have to sign up to those included before unification that papers had to work towards helping Germany reunify, very strong supporter of transatlantic alliance with the US, very strong supporter of Israel. So it's a sort of very powerful commercially successful. But. Also, the very value driven publisher. And so over the years, obviously, it has changed its make up quite drastically. Many of the regional papers were sold off and it's tried to reinvent itself. And it's quite successfully as digitally focused company. So obviously billed as the biggest title, but what would be the other name publications the rest of us over here in London might know about the other well-known old media opportunity, they have is developed, which is sort of conservative broadsheet daily, but a very sort of spectacle paper, whereas Il can be quite wild until very recently running topless photos on the front page every day, of course shipping, a famous people surprised by the financial times in two thousand fifteen but narrowly, failed them was beaten out by Nikai, but company has really tried to reinvent itself. As a digital company over the last decade in particular, and that has meant heavy investment in two areas. One is in the online ads business, both for property and for jobs. Where spring owns some of the biggest sites in Europe in the U K in France and Germany in particular. And that segment of the business now makes up by far the bulk of their earnings. So she decided very early on to exit some of their old media businesses and shift money into new media. I'm so on the one hand that is this online ads business. And on the other hand that's investments in properties, such as business insider, the US news sites which they bought in twenty fifteen and setting up a joint venture to launch political Europe, in Brussels, most change, what are the main shareholders wants take the company private? And what are the terms of the deal will there's been sort of falling out of love between management and shareholders in particular over the past year management, especially CEO matere Turner feels that Springer needs to invest invest, invest in the titular to show up the companies. Wrong position in the online business. And what has happened is that over the past year in particular, it had to downgrade its guidance largely because of the need for more investment. And so that's not on the management board. And clearly also either spring out of founder's widow who owns more than forty percent of the company's. Still, they feel that the company is at a stage where it needs to invest, where needs trade sort of short term earnings for long term prospects and shareholders just don't seem to be willing to go along with that. And that really is sort of Reuss of the idea to take spring a private and to do that. Feeder, Springer's widow and Mr. depth no who himself owns two point eight percent of the company have teamed up with KKR and they are offering shareholders, sixty three euros a share which is a forty percent premium to the undisturbed share price. But it's still quite substantially below where the share was only last year. So is this a? Good deal for the minority shareholders, who are going to be both out. Well, it was an interesting statement that came out of extra Springer on the day that the author was sort of finally made public and confirmed on the very same day they issued a pretty hefty profit warning. And so, basically the message to shareholders walls, whatever you think of this price that we're offering you, if you don't take it, you info quite a bumpy ride, because the company will prioritize investment over short term profit and over reliably raising the dividend, and these kinds of things that shareholders, like so probably the message to shareholders at least it's been it's not gonna get any better for you. If this deal doesn't go through. So Arash why would you know, big, shiny US private equity group like take care? Be interested in paying a premium to help the company take yourself by that. Well, there's a couple of dynamics at play. I mean first of all, kick yards a very big European presence. So they're already on the continent throw in the fact that actual Springer and build. In particular, come with a lot of social capital in the sense that you're playing with one of the most powerful and influential media companies in Europe and getting your hands on one of these prize, commodities is often very attractive for people if you think about the company's structure with free to stringer owning over forty percent of the company's control and Matisse dope. Never at their two and a half percent. The idea of ever really having a say in a company like this is a rare commodity. So if you're kick are, there's a couple of tractive reasons there now actual Springer has been thinking about this for some time, Amatya still who's the engineer of this whole transaction has been interviewing private equity firms over the last few months, I discovered in my reporting and selected KKR for a number of reasons. And so they are now teamed up and while importantly, the structure basically sees the kick AARP has to satisfy getting twenty percent of the minority shareholders. So if you think that free to spring controls about forty two percent Matisse stove close to three percent. They need to get to about sixty five percents delist the company, and so that's why the offer comes with the terms that says care, I need I about twenty. Sent a minimum of twenty percent of the shares out once the private care will still be a minority partner, but they will have influence and so on so forth and in the European private equity environment. There are very few deals where you can put a check of a billion euros. I work in one go. So this is quite attractive for a number of reasons and obviously, the main reason why company like KKR goes into bed with anyone is to make a ton of money for its shareholders. So that's principally the goal here. So speaking of making a ton of money what all the plans for the company beyond the deal will you got to imagine there's a couple of things going on. There's probably some structural changes to the company and its alignment and jobs, which will probably be better executed private and out of the headlines wants. It's private. We don't get to see what's happening. It's a lot harder comes a lot less transparent. Some of the difficult decisions that public markets, create for management will no longer be there. So that means the restructure structure, fire people that will happen outside the glare of the public eye. Maybe some of the dirtier work inside the portfolio of assets that isn't as nicely managed. Can be shut off in ways that again, don't get the same attraction and equally. If you want to make big bets on certain other businesses, you then have firepower and the ability to go for it without public markets judging the transactions. So you have to imagine that there is a plan for kick AR to basically bring firepower to the table for them to pursue transactions to then ultimately see them in maybe five years time returned to market at a big profit for everybody. So companies have traditionally preferred to raise cash from shareholders on the public markets toward extended this going into reverse. This is a bit of a unique situation. And in fact, Qiqihar has experienced doing this in Germany, where there's typically large foundation or large shareholder as the cornerstone investment care help, take a market research company called Jeff K private in Germany, similar structure almost the same playbook. Twenty percent added onto the deal to delist and to it that way. It's a different form of LB OBE leveraged by because you're not buying out the whole thing as majority partner, you're buying it as a minority part. But all the advantages of elbow exists, as long as you can work through the management structure, which you won't have as much influence over. So I don't think this is a major trend in terms of public private markets. I think it's unique to companies where there's a cornerstone investor with forty two percent sitting there and the options are limited. So this is kind of a unique structure almost German specific and a lot of ways and care has done it before. It's very specific to kick AR. So what are the big challenges for the company now is it getting the daily of the line, or is it taking what could be quite painful decisions once, that's all done? They probably have a plan for what they're going to do once. It's all done the hard part is getting across the line. So if you're kick AR union to make sure that twenty percent of the investors sign up to this the could play hardball with you. There's history of people like Elliott and some really clever investors going in enforcing railroading companies to pay more money in deals. There's a added complication, which is that there are heirs of the Springer family who also have roughly ten percent of the company axel. Vents Springer spends finger and Ariane Melanie Springer who have about ten percent combined now. My reporting suggests that it's not all hunky Dory on the family side and it's not like everyone's on the same page. I'm not saying it's like HBO show succession, but, you know, families are complicated in the politics within that is always tricky as we've seen in, in other media family like the Murdoch's. So the question is will these to put their ten percent in, because that already gets K are halfway there, or do they take the view that this is going to be, so profitable once they take it private and fix it up that they should stick around and that automatically add some complication because then it shortens lists, the view is they're going to ride the journey still and want to get rich off what happens. So they'll have to convince the other shareholders, this is a good deal. And that's the primary challenge right now families, plus money always equals drama. Right. And great headlines and headlines, she great for us. But Tobias how is this going down in Germany? How's it being viewed, this surprisingly little political reaction to this? I mean as the rash mentioned. Spring is hugely politically influential, all the perhaps, less with the Mackel government than with all the previous ones. I think it's in very much presented here as a move to shore up the sort of long term future of the group. It's been presented and also launch the scene. I think as a move in favor of sort of a long term view, rather than short-term pressure from the capital markets. And as we know that kind of discourse tends to go down quite well with the German public. So they're certainly been very little criticism of this deal. And I think there's also sort of expectation or hope that extra could use this window can use this freedom of being a private company to bulk up and protect itself against, for example, new competition from the likes of Google, which is pushing very hard into the market for online small ads. So I think this is a deal that is really metro little criticism from any corner him. That was Katie mountain.

But it's really about the life of I am of a person rather than the death of a person on CBS Sunday morning. I've always loved profiling people. And it occurred to me that there were a lot of great people from the pass. It didn't get a proper sendoff and some that didn't get an e send-off at all. And so that this would would be the, the right vehicle. I guess as cold award is at is to, to, to profile the subjects that are interesting to me, you know, and, and like I said, there's a lot to choose from beyond von meter in TV brothers.

Meander falls, because when they died out, forty thousand years ago, there was no open at least not one that we could find now there might be a stone tablet, somewhere in the Levant where they were given you know, sort of a proper sendoff, but I don't I don't think so we couldn't find anything in our own search in the archives are in Lexis Nexis, which I think people still use. So this was this was important for us to do next season. This is something that I've always been interested in the black congressman of reconstruction, which I know sounds like a funk band, but it's this period right after the civil war when there are a number of African American men most of whom had been slaves, who end up serving in the United States Congress. So it's those little pockets that are, that are interesting to me as well as well as people like Audrey Hepburn Sammy Davis junior, who we hopefully all. Love and remember.

And she ended up suing the railroad company that owned that streetcar. And she won and this is before the civil war, and led to the integration of New York's transportation system. And I mean it's a remarkable achievement and it's almost equally remarkable that we don't know her name. So this episode this Thursday, is about her about the African American man who played major league baseball, what passes the major leagues sixty four years before Jackie Robinson antibody woman who was the highest paid director in Hollywood during the silent era.

New Round Of Tariffs Takes A Bigger Bite Of Consumers' Budget
"The price of stuff lots of stuff from canoes to floor lamps to bicycles went up literally overnight last night. In fact, the Trump administration raise tariffs on two hundred billion dollars worth of imported Chinese products. The US and China are in trade talks this week. But so far no deal. NPR's? Yuki Noguchi has the story. Jim Kittles family furniture business is operated throughout Indiana. For nearly nine decades started my grandfather's by father, what kinds of things do you carry on your shop floor that room biting OBE living room? Occasional table kills furniture. We'll have to reprise new shipments of all kinds of furniture from nightstands to love seats. The new tariffs increased from ten to twenty five percent raising the underlying cost of Chinese-made items. What percent of the stuff that you have on the floor. Would you say is affected by the tariff? I think about thirty percent but much of the remaining seventy percent of goods are also affected much like automobiles. Parts of those goods are produced offshore summit. China kills been through this before last September a ten percent tariff took effect back then kindle, and his Chinese suppliers agreed to absorb most of that the cost of consumers only increased three percent this time around his suppliers. Can't afford to do that a neither can kill or other retailers. The vendor is no longer going to be able to take any more. The retailer is not going to be able to absorb it. Because right now retailers are at best marginally profitable Furniture's, though, different. Existing tariffs are already making life more expensive. They've increased consumer costs by one point four billion dollars a month. According to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to date tariffs have largely affected raw materials, like chemicals and wooden beams used to make other products. New tariffs will affect a larger number of finished goods things consumers actually by like by. Nichols. Catherine. Russ is an economics professor at the university of California at Davis. She says the latest round of Taras will add another five hundred dollars a year in costs for the average American household, and that could grow President Trump has pledged to broadened tariffs even further to all Chinese imports, including big ticket items whence the tariff goes onto cell phones. I mean, then you're really going to see people scream determining sticker price will be a dilemma for Jim Kittle. How customers will react is not Kittles only worry Indiana's main industries include farming and carmakers those are dealing with retaliatory tariffs China imposed on American goods. So Kittles customers are already squeezed. If they don't have the money to buy tractors or probably not gonna buy furniture. That is indeed what's happening not far from one of Kittles stores in Lafayette, Indiana since China impose tariffs last fall. Former Brent bible has nowhere to sell his soybean and corn crops. And that's just got worse. Just in the last three days of trading. We've seen the price reduction that equates to about a fifty thousand dollar loss for us bible points out that he's also a consumer an increased tariffs on steel and aluminum have raised prices on tractors and farm equipment.
