One of UK’s oldest private schools put on market for £5 million after closure

Published by Sam Flores

A 742-year-old school that educated John Lennon‘s son is up for sale for £5 million after it closed due to financial pressures. The Ruthin School in Denbighshire, north Wales, was founded in 1284 and is made up of 12 buildings, a 30-bed boarding house, a sports field, and more than 24 acres of land. It closed suddenly in July after it had been purchased by Galaxy Global Education in 2023, a Chinese company which also shut a private school in Worcestershire earlier this year. Ruthin, a 201-pupil co-educational boarding school, was one of the oldest independent schools in the UK with annual fees ranging from around £15,800 to £54,800 for full boarding. The school’s origins date back to 1284 (Wiki Commons) It includes the main school building, dining hall, science block, additional classroom accommodation, sports hall, storage facilities, boarding houses, sports pitches and adjoining agricultural land. Surveyor Sanderson Weatherall, which has listed the school, said: “The campus is centred around an impressive Grade II listed main building dating from the 1850s, comprising a series of …

Kevin Hassett held up to million in Coinbase amid Trump crypto push

Kevin Hassett held up to $5 million in Coinbase amid Trump crypto push

Published by Sam Flores

White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett held between $1 million and $5 million worth of shares in crypto giant Coinbase at the end of 2025, as President Donald Trump’s administration rapidly rewrote federal cryptocurrency policy. Hassett’s previously unreported 2025 annual financial disclosure lists the investment as vested Coinbase shares. He formerly worked as an advisor to the company. The filing shows he had not fully divested from the company nearly 11 months into Trump’s second term. While the filing was recently released, it doesn’t indicate whether Hassett still holds the shares as it covers only 2025. Three days after taking office in 2025, Trump established the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets within the NEC. His executive order included Hassett’s White House position or a designee as a member and required the group’s final recommendations to reach Trump through Hassett’s office. The group, chaired by the then-White House crypto advisor David Sacks, went on to propose sweeping regulatory changes to digital-asset markets, banking, stablecoin and taxation. The administration has also reversed Biden-era …

Over 153 Million Driver’s Licenses Were Stolen by Hackers. Here’s What to Know

Published by skeptic

If you’ve used your driver’s license to verify your information either in the real world or online, there’s a chance that some of your driver’s license information was stolen by hackers in a security breach against the ID verification giant IDScan that was reportedly active for a year. “On or around Sept. 1, 2026, IDScan.net received information indicating that certain data may have been accessed without authorization,” IDScan said in a statement on Sept. 4. “Upon this discovery, we took immediate steps to secure our systems and engaged a team of third-party specialists to help determine the full nature and scope of the incident.” The hack is discussed in more detail by Brian Krebs, a security researcher who runs the website Krebs on Security. He says he was first made aware of the breach after a source alerted him to a post on a Russian cybercrime forum from a hacker offering digital scans of identity documents for more than 170 million people from a service called Nexus. Krebs was able to access Nexus and verify …

Can a 125-Year-Old Prep Institution Become a $100 Million Menswear Giant?

Published by Jenni Sidey

Later this month, J. Press will open a new flagship store at the corner of Madison Avenue and East 44th Street in Manhattan. The store, with its wood panels, old photographs, and letters to the company penned by former American presidents, feels suitably reverent for a clothier on the eve of its 125th anniversary, and a natural complement to the stacks of rugby shirts, tweed sport coats, and other Ivy League staples within. It’s also a homecoming of sorts for J. Press, which operated a store across the street from 1932 to 2014. Students of American menswear will note that the intersection is the longtime home of the Brooks Brothers building, which was built in 1915 as the flagship of J. Press’s more famous Ivy League rival and has sat empty since the brand filed for bankruptcy in 2020. This significance is not lost on J. Press creative director and president Jack Carlson, who was finalizing a deal to take over the former Brooks Brothers space when the building was sold. The founder of Rowing …

Miley Cyrus Draws 1.5 Million for Hollywood Bowl Concert Tickets

Miley Cyrus Draws 1.5 Million for Hollywood Bowl Concert Tickets

Published by Daniella Wilson

Miley Cyrus‘ upcoming pair of Hollywood Bowl shows has some of the most sought after tickets in live music landscape, as the pop superstar has drawn 1.5 million people to her pre-sale queues, show organizers said Wednesday. For reference, the historic Hollywood venue seats about 18,000 people, reflecting an overwhelming number of people looking to score tickets for Cyrus’ shows. It’s an impressive feat, though not necessarily surprising given that Cyrus hasn’t played a proper concert tour in over a decade, with the exception of a brief 11-date festival tour in 2021 and 2022. Cyrus is playing two shows in October in support of her upcoming 10th album, Bass Persuades, set for release next week. Bass Persuades will mark her debut with WMG’s Atlantic Records after she’d spent most of her career under the Sony Music umbrella, most recently at Columbia Records. The album comes at a period of significant change for Cyrus. Her godmother Dolly Parton died after a brief battle with cancer in August, and Cyrus posted an emotional tribute to the icon …

The Exploration Company nabs 0 million to challenge SpaceX

The Exploration Company nabs $450 million to challenge SpaceX

Published by skeptic

The queue to send objects into orbit is growing, but space infrastructure isn’t keeping up with demand. As the realization sinks in that Elon Musk’s SpaceX can’t be the sole answer, other companies are raising their hand — and money. These include The Exploration Company (TEC), which operates out of Germany, France, Luxembourg, Spain, and Italy, and which has raised $450 million in what it describes as “the largest-ever Series C by a European space company.” But the race is global, with U.S.-based rival Stoke Space currently raising a $1 billion Series E round. Rivalry aside, these rounds show that investors on both sides of the Atlantic are willing to back companies seeking to build reusable spacecraft. That’s a category pioneered by SpaceX, but that many players, both public and private, now believe it shouldn’t solely control as space gains strategic importance. These sovereignty-related concerns create extra tailwinds for an EU-headquartered company like TEC. Led by Hélène Huby, a French national who spent two decades at Airbus and ArianeGroup, the company intends to use its …

AMC to pay 0 million in lawsuit over ‘Walking Dead’ profits

AMC to pay $120 million in lawsuit over ‘Walking Dead’ profits

Published by Sam Flores

AMC Global Media, the network behind the storied zombie franchise “The Walking Dead,” has settled a years-long profits lawsuit from the show’s creator and producers. The New York City-based company disclosed the agreement Tuesday in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing, describing it as resolution of “claims for breach of contract.” It will pay “The Walking Dead” creator Robert Kirkman and producers Glen Mazzara, David Alpert, Charles Eglee and Gale Anne Hurd $85 million by Sept. 18 and another $35 million by Jan. 31. The second payment will be treated as an advance against future profit participation, meaning the producers keep a stake in the franchise rather than selling it back. AMC said it will take a one-time $85-million charge in the September quarter. In a joint statement, the two sides announced the “amicable resolution of all their remaining claims and litigation” tied to the franchise and said they look forward to sharing in its continued success. The producers filed the complaint in November 2022 in Los Angeles Superior Court; it moved to federal court …
