This is about the size of computers the year after I
graduated from High School. I have written in the Baltimore Sun about the early
days of computers, I should dig that story up and republish it. It still makes
me smile.

"È la stampa, bellezza. E tu non ci puoi fare un bel
niente!"
Ed Hutcheson: It's not enough anymore to give 'em just news.
They want comics, contests, puzzles. They want to know how to bake a cake, win
friends, and influence the future. Ergo, horoscopes, tips on the horses,
interpretation of dreams so they can win on the numbers lottery. And, if they
accidentally stumble on the first page... news!

story. A reporter is only a witness. “Deadline U.S.A.” 1952.

On September 29, 2011, Craig Steves wrote on
YouTube,
“Bob Greene of the Chicago Tribune has
called this the best journalism movie ever made. He is absolutely right.
If you are interested
in art movies, see Citizen Kane. If you are interested in screwball comedy,
check out His Girl Friday. If it's history you're after, watch All the
Presidents Men. If you want to see a classic journalism movie, rent one of the
multiple versions of The Front Page.
But if you want to see
a movie that actually shows you what life is like inside a newsroom, how
reporters work together to get a story, and how "the story" is not
always about the big expose but sometimes just about getting the little details
right, this is your movie.
You can also watch Ron
Howard's The Paper, but it's a pale imitation of this movie.
The film brings up, a
mere 53 years ago, issues that are relevant today - the tabloids versus real,
factual news, and the meaning of a free press. These debates continue today,
but unfortunately, it seems that the tabloid type of journalism is winning. As
for a free press - our press might be freer than many, but it isn't entirely
free. As anyone who lost money in the great savings and loan scandal can tell
you, important stories disappear from the front pages all the time.
Bogart's strong
performance is the engine that keeps this film going, and there's a nice
performance by Kim Hunter as his ex-wife. Deadline USA reminds us of the good
old days, when you could believe what you read in the New York Times.”

If you do a lot of international traveling, you've probably
been stung by an unpleasant surprise lurking at the bottom of your bank
statement or credit card bill: a currency conversion fee. While the CARD Act
has done plenty to reduce sometimes exorbitant credit card fees, it left
currency conversion fees untouched, ensuring travelers will have at least one
unpleasant vacation memory.
Travelers returning from Europe often open their mail to
discover they paid more for their trip than they thought they had. Over the
last decade, banks have dramatically increased their fees for overseas
transactions. While these fees are legal, they’re basically a slimy way for
credit-card companies to wring a few more dollars out of their customers.
[…]
So, how can a smart traveler avoid — or at least reduce —
these fees? Here are a few suggestions.
[…]
If you’re getting a bad deal, get a new card. Some companies
offer lower international fees than others — and some don’t charge any at all.
If you’re going on a long trip, do some research and consider taking out a card
just for international purchases. Capital One has a particularly good reputation for no-fee
international transactions on both its credit cards and its debit cards linked
to a checking account. Most credit unions have low-to-no international
transaction fees. Bankrate
has a good comparison chart of major credit cards and their
currency-conversion fees.
[…]
Avoid dynamic currency conversion (DCC). Some European
merchants — capitalizing on the fact that many Americans are intimidated by
unusual currencies — cheerfully charge you for converting their prices to
dollars before running your credit card. Read more: https://www.ricksteves.com/travel-tips/money/card-fees

Taylor Swift Trademarks 'This Sick Beat' Lyric: "She has sold millions of albums and her latest songs are being sung by fans around the world, but now Taylor Swift has taken action to ban the unauthorised use of her lyrics. The Shake It Off singer has trademarked phrases such as "This sick beat" and "Cause we never go out of style" to make sure they do not appear on merchandise. It has been a busy week for the star after her Twitter and Instagram accounts were hacked on Tuesday. According to the legal database Justia, the filing prevents the use of phrases from her album 1989 on everything from umbrellas to removable tattoos. Other lyrics listed include "Party like it's 1989" and "Nice to meet you. Where you been?""
