Image
  Wild weather everywhere as we hereby present this courtesy to the team at Bloomberg Green , & guidance from FEMA  as we look forward to the continued privilege to serve:  By  Brian Kahn ,  Brian K Sullivan  and  Naureen S Malik The eastern two-thirds of the US is gearing up for a  major winter storm . Ice, sleet and snow will spread across an area spanning thousands of miles. While parts of the US have dealt with major winter storms in recent years, from California being  pummeled by atmospheric rivers  last year to Texas’ 2021 deep freeze , the country hasn’t seen any with this geographic scope. But two factors are lining up to create a weather system that’s forecast to grip dozens of states from New Mexico to Maine . The first is cold air.

On Our "Virtual Route 99" (Special Edition): A Tribute to the Iranian People

Image
  Iran is one of the world’s oldest civilizations and the birthplace of human rights , first articulated over 2,500 years ago by Cyrus the Great . However, Iran’s enduring importance and resilience have always flowed from something deeper: Iranians and Iranian culture . Across centuries of hardship, upheaval, invasion, and injustice, Iranians have always prevailed, not because of power or politics, but because of our art, poetry, music, philosophy, language, and collective memory . Iranian culture has been the vessel that has carried our values forward when institutions have failed. It has always preserved our identity when freedom was denied and has paved the way to self-determination, keeping meaning and coherence alive in the darkest times. Thank you to the Iranian people for what you have given the world through culture, literature, art, and for your enduring belief in human dignity . May you always shine brightly as the true representatives of our culture.

With another year looming before us, I’ve been thinking, if I could flash forward to December 2026, what would it take for me to look back and call it a good year? What challenges will I have taken on? What changes will I have made? What will I have learned? What good will I have done? I don’t know what 2026 has in store, but I do know that if it’s going to be a good year, it won’t be an accident. It won’t just happen. It will take work. “First tell yourself what kind of person you want to be,”  Epictetus  said, “then do what you have to do. For in nearly every pursuit we see this to be the case. Those in athletic pursuit first choose the sport they want, and then do that work.” Here are some habits, some best pra...
