President Donald Trump has proposed a 50% tariff on copper imports starting August 1—and it's already sending copper prices soaring. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke breaks down what this could mean for real estate investors, homebuilders, and everyday consumers. Copper is essential for everything from electrical wiring and plumbing to appliances and energy infrastructure. Higher copper costs could drive up construction expenses, delay renovation projects, and even increase utility bills. Learn what's behind the tariff, how markets are reacting, and what real estate investors should watch for as this policy unfolds.

Last week we had a Chianti from Tuscany, a Susumaniello from Puglia, and a Montepulciano from Abruzzo. Tonight, we have a Barolo from the Piemonte region. The area is known mostly for the home of two red grape varieties, Nebbiolo and Barbera. Nebbiolo is used to produce Barolo and Barbaresco, and Barbera is the typical table wine for the area. Barbera has become known over the last 30 years for its quality. Piemonte is also known for Dolcetto, Gattinara, Gavi, and Moscato. Dolcetto is an early ripening dark-red wine grape. It produces a soft, round, and fruit-forward red wine that is drank young. Gavi comes from the Cortese grape. Gavi often has some carbonation but can also be made into a more substantial wine. (Metodo Classico – minimum of 18 months of Lees contact). Two common terms are Spumante and Frizzante. They indicate a sparkling wine and semi-sparkling wine, respectively. Many people think of Barolo as being the best wine in the world. It is a high-tannin and high-acid wine that ages well.Tonight, we are enjoying:2019 Kirkland Signature Barolo. This wine was purchased at Costco for $20. RWS – aromas of leather, black cherry, cedar, licorice, black pepper and spice. Another reviewer said earthy flavors with cherry and blackberry, and noticeable acid. The wine has 13.5% alcohol. This wine had bright acidity regardless of its six-year age. Both Denise and I scored the wine a three. I believe the wine should be stored a little longer before consuming. Next week we will learn about and taste a South African Chenin Blanc and a Rhone Valley White Blend.

Also, KUDO expanded its network with new partners, while Deepdub was featured in an AWS case study for its work with Paramount.

In this first audio edition of Green Tagged Insights, Philip reads the inaugural newsletter analyzing what he calls "The Uncertainty Epidemic" affecting the attractions industry. With economic uncertainty now higher than during COVID and consumer confidence plummeting, hear how industry leaders are responding through strategic diversification. The episode explores Universal's multi-faceted approach with their UK expansion, United Airlines' barbell strategy revealing shifting tourism patterns, and what attractions of all sizes can learn from these examples. Philip also covers Merlin's entertainment outsourcing partnership with RWS, Disney's Paris expansion plans, and Sphere's content strategy - all presented in a straightforward, analysis-focused format that complements the main podcast.
Travel patterns are changing. United Airlines' latest earnings reveal a strategic pivot as they prepare for two economic scenarios in 2025, cutting domestic flight capacity by 4% while seeing surges in both premium and budget travelers – but not the middle market. This "barbell demand" mirrors what's happening across the attractions industry, where guests increasingly choose either high-end experiences or budget options. This week, we examine whether regional parks should prioritize local audiences as flight routes decline. Additionally, Merlin confirms its partnership with RWS Global as their entertainment partner – is outsourcing creative talent the new economic reality for operators navigating uncertain waters?

I had never done a ten-year vertical wine-tasting and didn't know what to expect. A vertical tasting is done with the same wine variety from the same winery and maybe even from the same vineyards, but for different years.However, if you get the chance, take it. I was very impressed. You can taste how the wine changes over time, and with information regarding the growing conditions for each year, you can also taste how the weather affects the wine.Stone Hill Winery in Hermann, Missouri, is one of the best in the state. Norton is the Missouri State Grape. Norton is also called Cynthiana which is the State Grape in Arkansas.Because of its acid and tannins, Norton wine can age well. It is known for its flavors of plum, tart cherries, blackberries, and earthiness and spice.Tonight, we talk about the Ten-Year Norton Vertical Wine Tasting that we did at Stone Hill Winery. Next week we are hunting for a great Trader Joe's wine. We will try to describe the three wines we taste and help you decide which wine you need to try next. We will be tasting: 2023 Emma Reichart Dry Riesling, purchased for $5.99. Aromas of apricot and grapefruit. It is crisp and dry with notes of mineral, almonds, and herbs. This wine comes from Germany. 11.5% alcohol. 2022 Roustabout Meritage from Paso Robles. Trader Joe's had this wine for $7.99. Meritage is a Bordeaux Red Blend made up of 44% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec, and 2% Cabernet Franc. The bottle says silky tannins. Notes of black cherries, blueberries, and cigar box. Some hints of dark chocolate and expresso. 13.6% alcohol.2022 Epicuro Nero D'Avola from Sicilia DOC. Purchased for $5.99. Aromas of blackberry, black currant, forest floor, and pepper.

In this episode of 'Retire with Style', Wade and Alex discuss the complexities of pension decisions with Jason Rizkallah from McLean Asset Management. The conversation delves into the critical choices retirees face regarding pension options, including whether to take a lump sum or annuity payment, the implications of each choice, the importance of comprehensive financial planning, and the potential benefits of external annuities. They discuss the importance of evaluating commercial annuities, understanding the structures and benefits of different annuity options, and the credit risks associated with pensions and insurance companies. The conversation also covers strategies for diversification, the significance of rate lock procedures, and the impact of income decisions on overall retirement planning. Listen now to learn more! Takeaways Annuities provide reliable income but come with liquidity issues. Tax implications are significant when taking a lump sum. External annuities can be competitive with pension options. Comprehensive financial planning is essential for retirement success. The choice between lump sum and annuity should consider long-term goals. Market conditions can affect the competitiveness of annuities. Consider all options before deciding on a pension or lump sum. Commercial annuities may offer better income rates than pensions. Evaluate the structure of annuities for survivor benefits. Credit risk varies between pensions and insurance companies. Diversifying annuities can mitigate risk but may lower income. Rate lock procedures are crucial in securing favorable annuity rates. Understand the implications of income on Medicare premiums. Ask providers about the potential repercussions of retirement choices. Partial rollovers may be possible but are often all or nothing.

When Knit Picks was founded by husband and wife team Kelly and Bob Petkun in 2002, the company began with a mail-order catalog and soon added online purchasing. Buying yarn online seemed both strange and inevitable: knitters began choosing yarns that they could only see onscreen, in the early days of functional search engines, at a time when many people had internet only at the office if at all. But for crafters who lacked easy access to a local yarn store or even a big-box craft store, being able to order craft supplies online broadened the horizons of knitting. After carrying other companies' yarns for several years, the Petkuns began working directly with mills in South America to create yarn lines that were exclusive to Knit Picks. Several of their first yarns, including Wool of the Andes, Andean Treasure, and Alpaca Cloud, are still available (though the Butterfly Kisses eyelash yarn that was a staple of the early 2000's has been discontinued). With the success of their exclusive yarns, Knit Picks began working with manufacturers to create their own tools, most significantly an extensive range of knitting needles. Sustainability-Minded Yarns By making their yarns available directly to knitters, Knit Picks was able to keep their prices low and developed a reputation for affordability. Perhaps less well known, though, have been their efforts to offer sustainably produced yarns. In this episode, Alexis Wilson explains that the company recently completed the process to certify their warehouse to the Responsible Wool Standard, the last link in the chain that makes their 100% US-made High Desert yarn line fully RWS-certified. High Desert yarns use Shaniko Wool, sourced from ranches that meet multiple environmental and social responsibility standards and are demonstrated to capture carbon in the soil. Even before the official RWS certification, Alexis observes, Knit Picks purchased their wool, alpaca, and mohair from certified Responsible Alpaca Standard, Responsible Mohair Standard, and RWS sources. In addition to natural-fiber yarns, they have added several lines that use innovative methods of recycling or reclaiming waste fibers: Oceana (https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/oceana/c/5420504), which features Seaqual Upcycled Marine Plastic; Salvage (https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/salvage/c/5420505), which contains recycled cotton; and Samia (https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/samia/c/5420462), which includes cupro, a silky fiber made from waste cotton produced in a closed-loop process. The environmental concern extends to their wooden needles, which are made from sustainably harvested forests. For Every Knitter (and Dyer and Weaver and Spinner) Although “knit” is right in the name, Knit Picks offers products for other crafts as well (and not just through their sister brand Crochet.com (https://www.crochet.com/)). In addition to finished yarns, Knit Picks offers the Bare (https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/bare-dye-your-own/c/300110) line of popular yarns ready to be dyed by consumers, as well as a variety of natural and synthetic dye products (https://www.knitpicks.com/accessories/yarn-dyes/c/300508). Spinners can select the wool blends used in some popular Knit Picks yarns as processed wool tops (https://www.knitpicks.com/3001/filter-products?Category=Roving) to make their own yarns. For weavers and machine knitters, the popular Dishie cotton comes on cones as well as in balls, and Alexis reveals that some weights of their staple yarns Wool of the Andes and Palette will be offered on cones soon, too. For nearly 20 years, Knit Picks produced almost every product offered on the site. In recent years, though, they have started supplementing their offerings with select yarns that they believe customers would enjoy, such as Kelbourne Woolens Germantown and Baa Ram Ewe Woodnote. Alexis looks forward to adding yarns from Berroco in upcoming months. In this Spotlight Episode, discover the sustainable side of Knit Picks. Links KnitPicks.com (https://www.knitpicks.com/) High Desert (https://www.knitpicks.com/search?q=high%20desert&filter___category%5B0%5D=Yarn) yarn is Knit Picks's 100% made in America, fully traceable, Responsible Wool Standard-certified yarn featuring Shaniko Wool. Knit Picks's Learning Center (https://www.knitpicks.com/learning-center) includes information about the company and its products as well as knitting instruction and links to the podcast and blog. The Freebies (https://www.knitpicks.com/freebies) page includes a delightful collection of printable tags, care instructions, cheat sheets, and other knitting information you didn't know you needed. This episode is brought to you by: KnitPicks.com has been serving the knitting community for over 20 years and believes knitting is for everyone, which is why they work hard to make knitting accessible, affordable, and approachable.
