The first challenge to Alibaba’s future, of course, is its ability to develop in markets other than China. Below are four fundamental factors that any BABA trader or investor should analyze. The company will now take steps to ensure fair competition. Alibaba prevented customers from offering their goods on competing platforms. The Chinese government recently fined Alibaba marketplace for monopolistic practices for 18.2 billion yuan ($2.8 billion), accounting for 4% of sales in China in 2019. Every quarter, gains or losses are booked on investments in listed companies (Alibaba invests, among others, Bilibili (sort of like YouTube), Lyft (Uber competitor), and Weibo (social network)), which makes the results more volatile. It invests in a whole range of listed and unlisted companies. Like Amazon, it is also involved in many other things such as IT infrastructure, cloud computing, and media and entertainment (including films and “YouTube variant” Youku). The company is the most significant e-commerce player in China (with more than 50% market share). ![]()

I drink a second mouthful, in which I find nothing more than in the first, a third, which gives me rather less than the second. Whence did it come? What did it signify? How could I seize upon and define it? ![]() Whence could it have come to me, this all-powerful joy? I was conscious that it was connected with the taste of tea and cake, but that it infinitely transcended those savours, could not, indeed, be of the same nature as theirs. I had ceased now to feel mediocre, accidental, mortal. ![]() ![]() And at once the vicissitudes of life had become indifferent to me, its disasters innocuous, its brevity illusory - this new sensation having had on me the effect which love has of filling me with a precious essence or rather this essence was not in me, it was myself. ‘An exquisite pleasure had invaded my senses, but individual, detached, with no suggestion of its origin. The prolonged madeleine scene is situated in the ‘Overture’ of the first volume of Proust’s In Search of Lost Time - Swann’s Way (1913), and begins with a cold, adult Marcel, who is offered tea and madeleines by his mother (‘those short, plump little cakes called “petites madeleines,” which look as though they had been moulded in the fluted scallop of a pilgrim’s shell.’), tasting a morsel of the madeleine cake soaked in tea: The whole scene was suddenly changing before the eyes of my memory, with different colours, textures, and flavours. I was even more surprised to realize that as a child Proust was probably not even drinking tea with it, but rather ‘tilleul’, a herbal tea made with lime (or linden-tree) flowers, more suitable to children. When I then decided to tackle the giant Proustian oeuvre by myself, years later, I was surprised to find out my teacher had lied about the biscuits – because in the notorious scene Proust is not eating a simple biscuit, but rather precisely a madeleine – which of course has given literature scholars more to think about than a biscuit would have. And so, the beginning of twentieth-century literature as studied in school appeared to me marked by one French person dunking a biscuit – fantastic. When we first studied Proust in school, my literature teacher told us, quite simply, that adult Marcel was dunking a biscuit in his tea, which made him remember things from his childhood, and that was the start of his narrations, ‘in search of lost time’. And so, sweet madeleines and savoury madeleines (yes, they exist!) would came out of my oven and crowd my kitchen, to be then distributed amongst various friends and family members: green, matcha-flavoured madeleines amber-coloured, honey and cardamom madeleines dark-tinged, chocolate and hazelnut madeleines pale, almond and ricotta ones…ĭid this improve my understanding of Proust? Maybe. In order to better prepare me for this conference, my mother bought me a madeleine mould as a present -a great gift indeed-, and instead of worrying about the conference, Proust, and my paper, as most of my friends can imagine, I started baking madeleines frenziedly, in an attempt at mastering the art of making this rather simple, yet sublime sweet. Over a year ago, I decided to take part in a postgraduate conference on Proust: my paper got accepted, and I was pleased yet rather nervous about it, as this was really out of my ‘comfort zone’, me being by no means a French Literature expert. ![]() ![]() Danni, who has been having recurring hallucinations of the Paris bomber, feels increasingly guilty about deceiving Rowan. When counter-protestors set off fireworks, Rowan suffers a PTSD attack and is hospitalized. She realizes the life of fame she wanted is not as desirable as simply being a good person.ĭanni is invited to speak at a rally with Rowan. Danni is invited to an influencer party with Colin, where they have a brief sexual encounter, which is unpleasant for Danni and requires her to take Plan B. Danni grows closer to Rowan, becoming a confidant and sisterly figure to her. This article, which includes the hashtag #IAmNotOkay, goes viral with Rowan's help and propels Danni to fame. Inspired by Rowan, Danni writes an article about her "experience" of being in a terrorist attack. At a trauma support group, she meets and befriends teenage anti-gun activist Rowan Aldren, a school shooting survivor who has a large social media following. With her parents, co-workers, and online following believing she is a survivor of the terrorist attacks, Danni immediately garners widespread attention and sympathy, leading Danni to lean into the lie. To uphold her lie, Danni claims she witnessed the bombing and fakes returning from Paris, joining up with her parents at the airport. A few days later, Danni posts an edited photo of herself by the Arc de Triomphe, but a few minutes later, several major Parisian landmarks, including the Arc, are bombed by terrorists. She gains a modest following on Instagram as a result, which includes Colin. Danni spends the next week posting edited pictures of herself in Paris from her Brooklyn apartment and creates a website for the fake retreat. ![]() ![]() Struggling with both her job and making friends, Danni, after getting high off a hit from her co-worker and social media influencer Colin, whom she has a crush on, lies about attending an upcoming writers' retreat in Paris to impress him.

Todd and Julie were charged with conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States and tax fraud. In addition to their prison sentences, Todd and Julie each received an order of 16 months probation from U.S. Both reported to their respective prisons in January. The two are currently seven months into their sentence. Todd and Julie Chrisley, who portrayed themselves as real estate tycoons in the South on their USA Network shows, were sentenced to 12 and seven years in prison, respectively, after being found guilty on federal charges in June 2022. New reality TV show comes amid Todd and Julie Chrisley's prison sentence USA TODAY has reached out to Scout Productions and a rep for Savannah Chrisley for more information. "Their ability to balance popular culture and empathy through authentic storytelling is unrivaled and I know they’re going to find the right home for this next chapter of our lives.

The more mass you have under this surface that will not move and absorb your energy the better. The harder the metal the better the rebound will be. The old movie troupe with the steam engine runnng up on a section of missing track was a real thing and the many years in prison for trading in the rail was an effective solution.Īctually, the rebound has to do with the hardness of the upper surface.The rest of the anvil just provides the inertia to hold this upper surface still.Ī great way to test the "Rebound" (or surface hardness) of an anvil is to take a clear plastic tube, 6 inches to a foot tall, and a ball bearing that fits freely in it., Drop the ball bearing and watch how high it bounces back. They just roll it off the ties and that’s where it’ll be for several centuries. It’s forbidden by Federal Law to sell, trade or purchase rail from any railway overseen by the FRA (Federal Railways Authority) without a bunch of special permissions so it’s simply not worth messing with, even for the railroads. The reason it’s hard to find is because there’s no easy secondary market for the scrap. There will be a maintenance shed somewhere (See weight notice above). If you just happen to have an abandoned mine or amusement park around you might find some there. ![]() Also municipal street projects that require old rail to be removed. Other places include a factory with its own siding that’s being demolished. It’ll weigh about 35lbs/foot and two stout guys can carry a yard about 1/4 mile before wondering if it’s worth it. That’s how you die and it would make me sad. Don’t be an ass and get on the ballast (rocks). Old sections are just rolled off the crossties and left forever. The best place to find rail is along the side of tracks at the foot of the ballast. ![]() ![]() ![]() What’s that? Did you want to hear more about them? *Sigh* The fact that they exist at all is roughly the best thing I can say about the cameras on the Amazon Fire 7.

Once you are in the Kindle app or watching a video this is all completely irrelevant though, as it handles these tasks without a hiccup. I once again will bring you back to that $60 price, you aren’t getting something that will compete with the iPad (2021) or any other tablet that costs 5-10x the price of the Fire 7. The Fire 7 will instill in you a “we’ll get there” mentality or you will hurl it at the ground, it very much depends on your personality. It’s enough to run Fire OS pretty smoothly when scrolling through your apps, videos or books, but you can absolutely bog it down by loading up too many tabs in the Silk browser or simply trying to jump rapidly between apps. None of that sounds particularly encouraging when it comes to performance, although that’s 30% faster and double the RAM of the 2019 model. The Amazon Fire 7 features an unnamed quad-core 2.0 GHz processor with 2GB of RAM. (Image credit: Laptop Mag/Sean Riley) Amazon Fire 7 (2022) performance Alexa can’t live up to Google Assistant, but it’s at least on a par with if not better than Siri, so it’s a handy feature to have. One final note on audio, the hands-free Alexa experience is quite good, it’s like having a battery-powered Echo Dot that you can take anywhere and is particularly handy if you are using the tablet in the kitchen and have your hands dirty or wet. But I stress that if you are looking to listen to music or get engrossed in a movie or show you have to either connect headphones or a speaker. The speaker works for listening to spoken word content like Audible or podcasts or for Alexa to respond to you. Volume isn’t bad, but at the edges of my 12 x 18-foot listening space, it would start to sound a bit faint. The lone speaker on the side of the Fire 7 made the strumming of the guitar and the wistful tune sound like it was being played into a tin can. It was a reminder of how spoiled I am by the stereo speakers in the best smartphones and tablets. I listened to “Hotel California (2013 Remaster)” by The Eagles, because that was one of the “Hot Songs” that Amazon Music saw fit to put in front of me. There’s a 3.5mm headphone jack and Bluetooth support for connecting wireless headphones and I would strongly recommend you do one of those two things. The single speaker integrated into the Fire 7 isn’t good, but I do have some good news on the audio front with the Fire 7.

That makes the Fire 7 perfect for its intended role as a device for reading, watching videos, light web browsing or scrolling apps like TikTok. At 9.9 ounces and 7.1 x 4.6 x 0.38 inches it will fit in anyone’s hands easily and doesn’t instill fear that you will drop it on yourself while laying in bed or on the couch. That brings me to the positive side of the Fire 7’s design it’s incredibly comfortable to hold with its rounded plastic edges and small form factor. Outside of the glossy Amazon logo on the back, the Fire 7 tablet is the quintessential black plastic slab tablet with thick bezels that at this point I have to believe are there to maintain the form factor rather than hit a price. If you were to look up “utilitarian tablet design” in the dictionary you wouldn’t find an entry for it, because why would that be in there? But if we are to imagine that there would be an entry the Fire 7 is clearly the front-runner to be pictured there.
