Poll: Americans Losing Confidence In Obama

WASHINGTON— The Federal Aviation Administration said Friday it will open a three-month review of Boeing’s compliance with safety regulations, continuing the agency’s closer oversightof the company since a panel blew off a jetliner during an Alaska Airlines flight in January. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] The FAA said its review will examine key areas of safety processes at Boeing to make sure that they “result in timely, accurate safety-related information for FAA use.” An FAA spokesperson said the review was not triggered by any particular event or concern but rather is part of the FAA’s oversight of safety culture at the huge aircraft maker. Boeing did not comment immediately on the new review. FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker has ordered special audits of Boeing and other steps to examine the safety culture at Boeing since a panel called a door plug blew off a 737 Max during the Alaska Airlines flight. However, the inspector general of the Transportation Department, FAA’s parent agency, said last week that weaknesses in FAA oversight are limiting its ability to find and fix problems at Boeing. The auditor said FAA has failed to ensure that Boeing and its suppliers make parts that meet engineering and design requirements and to investigate claims that Boeing puts improper pressure on employees who are authorized to conduct safety inspections.

Vaccine side effects like soreness, fever, and fatigue scare some people out of getting their shots. Ask a doctor, though, and they’ll tell you these unpleasant symptoms have a silver lining: they’re a signal that your immune system is firing up in response to the shot, doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.

In 2016, Titus Kaphar made The Jerome Project, a short documentary in which he confronted how his father’s abuse and drug use harmed his childhood. But upon completing it, he discovered that he had only scratched the surface. “When I finished the project, what was clear to me is that it did a good job of telling us where we were, but not how we got there,” says Kaphar.

“I don’t speak Russian, but I understand it.” The line hits me like a gut punch as the first act of director Sean Baker‘s new movie Anora unfolds. It’s a line purred, albeit reluctantly, by the titular protagonist, Anora (Mikey Madison), a Russian-speaking, Uzbek-American sex worker—who prefers to be called the more Americanized nickname Ani—as her boss at a Manhattan strip club asks her to meet a new client: Ivan (Mark Eydelshteyn), the twenty-something son of a Russian oligarch. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] This line kicks into gear a modern Cinderella story gone horribly wrong (spoilers ahead): a torrid affair between Ani and Ivan (Vanya, for short) that explores systems of power, safety, love (ultimately), and the Russian diaspora of New York City. It’s also a line I know well; I have said it more times than I can count.

The corpse of Yahya Sinwar was found in the landscape he envisioned—the dusty rubble of an apocalyptic war ignited by the sneak attack he had planned in secret for years, and launched on Oct. 7, 2023. The catch was that the fighting extended only 25 miles east and at most four miles south from the shattered villa in southern Gaza where the Hamas leader died one year and nine days later.

“Do you know Sean Baker?” While filming Aleksandr Andryushchenko’s sci-fi-adventure Guest from the Future in 2022, actor Yura Borisov asked this question of his co-star Mark Eydelshteyn. “No, I don’t know Sean Baker,” he replied. Borisov then explained to Eydelshteyn that Baker, the award-winning auteur behind The Florida Project and Tangerine, is “one of the most incredible independent directors in America.
