Donald Trump’s communications staff has removed The Independent’s White House correspondent from the traveling press pool that was scheduled to cover his trip to Iowa for a campaign rally on Thursday.
Correspondent Andrew Feinberg was notified by the White House Press Office on Wednesday evening that he will “not be the print pooler on tomorrow’s trip”

“Thank you for your understanding,” the spars…

Given that cherries are extremely perishable, a picked cherry loses quality by the hour.
Vision-based dynamic class segmentation enables shipping
first-class cherries with dark color, perfect stems, and high firmness,
and airfreighting them to China or Vietnam, where consumers pay $15-$25 per pound for a high-status gift.

One more memory from the Bayerischer Wald . Aaaand: this is one of the reasons why we like this region: it's so lush green and vivid and ... not so steep. The vegetation is just different. And so it's simply another kind of experience.
And that spot was just .. beautiful. The stream, the little path, the green, the light, the ferns, ... It's a good spot to just stand still and enjoy.

So, as a social scientist, I am absolutely fascinated with the longstanding issue about AirBNB guests being requested to do the cleaning of a home that they then have to play a cleaning fee in anyway.
I want to know: has there been any sociologist or economist who's taken a look at this moment where we can, for the first time, put an actual price tag and some data on the economic cost of the maintenance of a home? The ongoing work of homemaking is one of continuous tasks throughout a day, including exactly the list that guests often get, like stripping beds to start loads of laundry with very explicit directions on the washing machine settings...that would normally be stored in the emotional and logistical load of the primary homemaker/caregiver. This is often seen as "too much work" or "not important" or "why are they so picky about the washing machine settings" and the answer, of course, is that for the first time, people who don't have to manage a home have to understand the sheer effort it takes to manage a clean and welcoming home. And now, there has been a specific price tag on it.
I hope someone goes and does this work now, because the data is likely there.
