A good night’s sleep can be the cure for all sorts of ailments. And new research says it may also be the best medicine for loneliness. The National Sleep Foundation in Washington, DC found that getting a good night’s rest helps people feel more connected to others. Specifically, the researchers found that better sleep health is linked to lower levels of emotional, social, and total loneliness. The effects were seen across adults of all ages. The US Surgeon General declared loneliness a public health crisis in 2023, comparing the health risks one could face from feeling lonely to the effects of smoking up to 15 cigarettes a day.

Makeup sales are up – and that’s not necessarily a good thing. The so-called “lipstick index” was named by Estee Lauder chairman Leonard Lauder in 2001. His theory was that during an economic downturn, women tended to purchase lipstick as “small pick-me-ups” while cutting back on more expensive things. Fast forward to now, and Sephora recently announced a record sales year, while research group Circana reported a 9% bump in prestige beauty sales. So, does this mean another recession? Possibly. But we might want to wait until we see how the gourmet chocolate-makers are doing. A writer for the Independent suggests that the term “indulgence index,” to include other small luxuries, like fancy chocolate, might be more accurate. Other products used as quirky economic indicators include men’s underwear, hair dye, and champagne, all of which tend to see a drop in sales during harder times.

It’s the new TikTok trend that you might not want to have anything to do with. The “no-spend” pledge encouragers users to cut-out all non-essential purchases for a set period – or a week, a month, or even a year. And while the intentions of the challenge are definitely honorable, such as to help break the habit of overspending, experts say that even the best of intentions can backfire. As Gregory Stoller, a professor at Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, points out: “Why purchase non-essential products that you don’t need to begin with?” And besides, most financial experts say there is no shortcut to practicing good financial habits. Bottom line: Rather than hop on the latest extreme fad, everything comes back to “setting a budget and setting expectations”, said Ted Rossman, senior industry analyst at Bankrate.

What are the most important traits that daters are looking for in a potential spouse these days? According to a poll of 2,000 adults in Britain who are looking for a mate, the most-desirable attributes are emotional intelligence, the ability to get along with your friends and family, and, of course, financial stability.

Show Notes for Thursday, June 27, 2024


THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!

Dear John

I recently got a much-deserved, and long overdue promotion. It was between me and one other girl in the office and I won. This made her upset, of course, but check this out. The next day she told me that she put a curse on me. She said, "Enjoy the position while you have it because the rest of your life will be bad. And the job isn't going to work out and I will have the promotion I deserve." Since that time, my boyfriend broke up with me. Someone broke into my car. Then came back two days later and stole my whole car. I've had a ton of unexpected expenses. I don't think I believe in curses, but this has me thinking. So yesterday, I asked her to lunch, told her what was happening and she said she wasn't surprised. She said she told me what to expect. I asked her to lift the curse and she laughed. I was thinking about telling my boss what's happening but does that make me sound crazy? I'm legit scared and don't know what to do. Any ideas? Is this as crazy as I think it sounds?

Signed

Potentially Cursed

After a remake of the 1980s “Little Shop of Horrors” fell through, a new reboot has been announced. Director Roger Corman was working on a reimagining titled “Little Shop of Halloween Horrors” before he died on May 9.

In it, Ferguson’s ‘Mitchell’ character realizes the family has left him out of a group chat.

Bugatti has unveiled its new model, the “Tourbillon”, a massively powerful hybrid with an equally impressive price tag. And while you might have expected Bugatti’s new model to be all-electric, considering not only is the industry headed in that direction, but the company was recently merged with Rimac, the Croatian company that makes the all-electric Rimac Nevera supercar. But the Bugatti Tourbillon will have a huge, 16-cylinder gas engine, which was designed in cooperation with the British race car engineering firm Cosworth. Those 16 cylinders will be assisted by 3 powerful electric motors – each capable of producing 800 horsepower (plus) on their own. That means the Tourbillon will be able to put out a total of at least 1,800 horsepower. List price: $4 million.

When linguist Andrew Bray was researching slang used by hockey players, he was asked an interesting question: “Are you trying to figure out why the American (hockey players) sound like fake Canadians?” Upon further study, he discovered that American players do indeed shift their speech in subtle ways, not because they’re trying to sound Canadian—but because they’re trying to sound like hockey players. Bray found that American players do indeed borrow features of the Canadian accent—particularly with hockey terms – adopting it more the higher they advance, given that Canadian players are so prevalent.

There’s no stopping Disney/Pixar’s “Inside Out 2,” which is now well on its way to becoming 2024’s first $1 billion box office hit, after earning a projected $100 million in its second weekend, the best ever for an animated film. That tops the previous record of $92 million set last year by “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” and gives the sequel a 2-weekend domestic total of $355 million. That’s the same amount that “Barbie” had after 2 weekends, and puts it on pace to pass $600 million in North America.

Hours after Paramount revealed the return date for the final episodes of “Yellowstone”, Kevin Costner ended speculation about his possible return by announcing that he is not coming back.

Have you ever encountered issues at a supermarket checkout, and felt the “death-stares” of those waiting in line behind you — even though you hadn’t done anything wrong? Well, that wouldn’t happen here. A Japanese grocery store recently implemented an “extra-slow checkout” where customers are never rushed. Those visiting the extra-slow checkout register can spend upwards of 20 minutes, counting their change, trading in products they’ve decided not to buy, chatting with the cashier, etc. — without feeling pressured in any way. Why? It was originally designed for the convenience of the elderly, disabled, and pregnant women, but it seems to have become very popular with all types of shoppers who just don’t want to feel rushed. The experimental register has become so popular that the supermarket credits its implementation for a 10% increase in sales.

GORDON RAMSAY’S 3 GOLDEN RULES FOR EATING AT A RESTAURANT:

1. Be wary of places that throw around ‘suspicious boasts’ about the quality of their food: Buzzwords like “famous” or “best in the country” without any evidence to back them up should set alarm bells ringing. After all, “Who said that? Who named that?”

2. Too many ‘specials’: Ramsay says: “Specials are there to disappear throughout the evening. When they list 10 specials, that’s not special.”
3. When it comes to ordering wine, ask for the “bin end” list: This is comprised of bottles with scratched labels or vintages which haven’t sold well. This can be a good way to get the best bottle for a bargain price. Also, asking for a bottle of whatever is recommended for no more than $30 can get you an under-appreciated tipple on the cheap.

According to Fandom’s 4th Annual Inside Gaming report, video games are “increasingly seen as a form of personal expression, exploring one’s identity and providing empowerment and confidence in one’s real life.” Creative and world-building focused games like “Minecraft,” “Roblox,” and “Fortnite” lead the charge in helping to tick those boxes. Other findings in Fandom’s survey of 5,000 entertainment and video game fans include:

Hackers uncovered a flaw in Hotmail’s security in 1999, which allowed access to any Hotmail email account by entering “eh” as the password. This crippling flaw was deemed to be “the most widespread security incident in the history of the web.” The group that took responsibility for the flaw’s exposure, known as Hackers Unite, claimed that they didn’t want to destroy anything by leaking it but rather wanted to draw seemingly much-needed attention to Microsoft’s failing security systems. Experts believe that the ability to access any email account with a simple password was unintentionally left behind as a “backdoor” by Microsoft’s engineers, something Microsoft has never admitted. Instead, they merely palmed it off as an “unknown security issue.”

Kevin Costner just might be making a “Yellowstone” comeback. He told “CBS Sunday Morning” that he’s willing to return to the hit series, which recently started production on the second half of its 5th and final season. Costner said: “If I like the story, where it was going, I would go back”. Costner played rancher ‘John Dutton’ for 4½ seasons before he exited, and started working on “Horizon: An American Saga.” But according to him, his reason for leaving Yellowstone had nothing to do with his new multi-film movie western, he had simply completed “everything that I was contracted to do with Yellowstone.” There were, however, reports of a feud with creator Taylor Sheridan.

It’s the new corporate trend that that you might really want to get behind: Being “unbossed”. Does not having a boss on site sound good to you? According to Live Data Technologies, middle manager layoffs have increased to more than 30% from pre-pandemic times. This means that as companies cut back on costs and reduce headcount, many workers are finding themselves without a direct supervisor. Employment experts say that while at first, the concept might sound awesome, workers must remember that they still have responsibilities and need to be accountable. In addition, junior workers might miss out on valuable coaching and development that their boss would be giving, if he or she still existed. And some employees who have found themselves without someone to directly report to say not only do they miss having someone to run to with a problem or a question, they also miss the comfort of having someone to bounce ideas off…or simply miss the camaraderie of that supportive voice in the corner office. The perks? Those might include fewer team and one-on-one meetings, and…let’s be honest…the occasional long lunch break or 4-day workweek.

HYDRATION MYTHBUSTING:

Because ‘tis the season…

Myth #1: You need to drink 8 glasses of water per day. How much water you need depends on your daily needs, based on exercise level, how much you sweat, age and medications, plus your diet and local heat and humidity. A good goal is to drink half your weight in ounces per day.

Myth #2: Water is the only thing that hydrates you. Along with fruits, vegetables and other water-based foods, other non-alcoholic drinks can help hydrate you. Some studies claim that milk is better than water. for hydration.

Myth #3: Coffee is dehydrating. The caffeine in coffee is a mild diuretic. But since you take in more liquid than you lose while drinking coffee, it doesn’t have enough of an effect to lead to dehydration, and may also inspire you to drink more water.

Myth #4: Thirst is the only sign of dehydration. While thirst is one of the first signs of dehydration, other warning signs can include dizziness, weakness, fatigue, headache, dry skin, dry mouth or fatigue. Also amber-colored pee.

Myth #5: You don’t need to see a doctor for dehydration. Symptoms that require medical attention include: dizziness that makes it difficult to stand or walk, low blood pressure, fast heart rate, fever, lethargy and confusion. In severe cases it can lead to seizures, shock or coma.

Myth #6: There’s no such thing as drinking too much water. Over-hydration can cause major problems. Water toxicity happens when someone drinks water too fast, throwing off their electrolyte balance — and some people have even died from it.
