The New Apprentice - J.D. Vance's juggling act

J.D. Vance looks annoyed. it's a tuesday afternoon in August, and we're sitting near the front of his campaign plane, flying from a rally in Michigan to a fundraiser in Tennessee. Across the aisle is his mother Bev, whose role in Vance's traumatic and disruptive childhood he chronicled in his best-selling memoir, Hillbilly Elegy. As flight attendants serve Chick-fil-A, Vance gripes about the ongoing controversy over his three-year-old comments complaining that the U.S.is being run by Democrats, corporate oligarchs, and childless cat ladies who don't really have a direct stake in the country's future. As with his boss, Vance's instincts are to punch back. I think it's a ridiculous thing to focus on, he says, instead of the underlying argument I was trying to make.

The Hunt for Life on a Moon of Jupiter Begins - Nearly half a billion miles from Earth, a world may be stirring.

Europa has fascinated astronomers and exobiologists at least since 1979, when the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft reconnoitered the moon and photographed an icy white surface shot through with cracks and fractures, suggesting a churning ocean disrupting the frozen crust. The later Galileo mission, which orbited Jupiter from 1995 to 2003, discovered that Jupiter's magnetic field is disrupted in the vicinity of Europa in a way consistent with a deep, electrically conductive liquid beneath the surface of the moon. The Juno mission, which has been orbiting Jupiter since 2016, has been studying Europa more closely still, documenting ice walls, scarps, and ridges, all pointing to a surface in constant motion. Astronomers now believe that Europa has an ice shell up to 15 miles thick, covering a global ocean up to 100 miles deep.

Reynoso has tried to do everything he can to stay afloatputting drugs in smaller bottles to save costs, asking customers to pay by Venmo since creditcard fees are so high, diversifying the merchandise he sells in the front of his stores.
