When New Jersey native Matthew Daiter enrolled in the University of Colorado Boulder’s online MS in Electrical Engineering program, he already had nearly a decade of real-world experience behind him. No undergraduate degree. No traditional academic trajectory. Just a “funky educational path,” a can-do attitude, and a career spent building and breaking boundaries in hardware startups. Now based in Hong Kong, Matt’s story is anything but conventional—but an inspirational one to read. Skipping College, Joining the Workforce “I didn’t go to undergrad for college,” Matt says. “I started working right after high school.” That decision kicked off a whirlwind four-year…

Roger Ebert once observed on Robert Altman: “There may not have been a director who liked actors more.” Altman’s 1999 film “Cookie’s Fortune” exemplifies that, and it is often fun to watch how its main cast members willingly embody the human eccentricities of their colorful characters. Every moment in the film clearly shows that Altman really enjoyed spending time with his cast members, and the result is a little but precious gem full of charm, humor, and that distinctive Southern atmosphere. The movie is set in a small rural town of Mississippi during one Easter week. As this town is…

As we now know as we are on their now fifth studio album, W.E.T. is a culmination of some great artist including Robert Sall of the band Work of Art (The “W”); Erik Martensson of the band Eclipses (The “E”) and Jeff Scott Soto of the band Talisman (The “T”). All three bands are Swedish bands and all on Frontiers so it made it easy to bring these three guys together.

Klaus Schwab’s retirement and subsequent fall from grace symbolize the tectonic shifts occurring in the current global order. Schwab’s life’s work was to build a globalist world order governed by international elites and the United Nations.

Schwab and his compatriots had grand ambitions to reshape the global order with a “Great Reset.” WEF’s annual conference in Davos was arguably the most prestigious gathering of global elites in the 2010s. Policy decisions, global priorities,…

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 57 of IPL 2025 on May 7 at Eden Gardens, a must-win game for the defending champions. KKR, sixth on the points table with 11 points from 11 games, are desperate to secure a playoff spot after a rollercoaster season.

Everton manager Sean Dyche, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: “It’s pleasing, points on the road are hard to come by in the Premier League. We’ve opened up with the players about the mentality to take on games and how to do that tactically.”First half was more of a defensive mentality. Second half we found a better balance. We conceded but it is the reaction to the goals conceded. That is getting better all the time.”On Ellis Simms: “Ellis Simms, a young player coming on and earning his spurs. We know he’s got power and pace, then a fine…

There are a lot of things you can do to maintain a competitive edge as a hockey player. You can practice your stickwork, get in a daily workout and make sure you eat right. In all the work that goes into gaining an edge on the ice, however, you shouldn’t ignore the literal edges of your skates.

Skate blades need to…
