The ruling party of Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto lost several historical strongholds on Sunday in an election largely seen as a referendum on corruption, impunity, and violence across the country.

At least once every year, I develop an unforgiving cough and congestion so bad I have trouble hearing.

Each time, as I burrow under my favorite blanket and clutch onto Sudafed and Mucinex for dear life, I wonder: Why again? And why always when I have fun weekend plans?

It doesn’t take me long to realize — I’m burnt out.

True to form, I’ve agreed to too many responsibilities and side gigs on top of my fulltime job, and my body is not happy. Читать дальше...

Most people have a hard time thinking about risk. They usually just take their recent experience and extrapolate it out indefinitely into the future:

‘Stocks have gone up over the past few years so they’ll probably continue to do so. We had a 10% correction recently so we should be prepared for that sort of thing to happen again but there’s no reason to believe a bear market is lurking.’

What makes risk hard to think about is that it remains latent the vast majority of the time... Читать дальше...

You've seen the beautiful pictures of Mars, watched the movie "The Martian," and read about Elon Musk's plans to visit the red plant.

But how much do you really know about Earth's next-door neighbor?

Even though humans have yet to arrive and there are still plenty of mysteries to solve, scientists have figured out a great deal about Mars.

From what it's like on the surface to the most impressive landmarks to the presence of an ancient ocean (and tsunamis!)... Читать дальше...

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid spent much of a heated Monday speech on the Senate floor lighting into "Trumpet" Mitch McConnell and presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

After calling the Republican "capitulation" to Trump complete, he chastised McConnell, the Senate majority leader, for leading a supposedly "pro-Trump propaganda tour" the week before.

"Sen. McConnell spent last week as Donald Trump's head cheerleader — a trumpet," the Senate minority leader said. Читать дальше...

A big story has developed in the last decade: Silicon Valley and the car business are converging — high-tech code meets heavy metal.

That's according to Bloomberg's Alex Barinka and Kiel Porter, who report that the company has held talks with advisers about various options for raising capital.

If you're spending $2 a day on food, you have to shop strategically.

I did just that in January, on the "Elon Musk Challenge," spending a little under $62 on food over the course of the 31-day month.

I did all of my shopping at the famously affordable Trader Joe's. Yes, I've heard that Aldi is cheaper, and I probably could have found better deals at a local market, but Trader Joe's is conveniently located in my neighborhood and I know the lay of the land. Читать дальше...

"Hamilton" is the most coveted Broadway show right now, and tickets are sold out for months in advance.

The musical — created and composed by Lin-Manuel Miranda — features a multiracial cast rapping and singing the story of Alexander Hamilton, America's founding father and first secretary of the treasury.

It took six years for the musical to come together, but since it has there's no stopping it.

"Hamilton" won a Grammy earlier this year for best musical theater album... Читать дальше...

Warning: There are spoilers ahead for Sunday's episode of "Preacher."

The opening scene from this week's "Preacher" is a jarring non-sequitur that takes place in 1881. It's a grim, but captivating self-contained story of a soldier in the Old West, somehow connected to events in modern day Annville, Texas. It was probably confusing for newcomers, but for fans of the comics it was a welcome sight and indication that a fan-favorite would eventually make his way to the show. 

Newspapers are dying and the internet is rising.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics recently highlighted a stark indicator that this generational shift in the nature of media is happening: Since October of last year, there have been more people employed in internet publishing than by traditional newspapers, according to the Bureau's Current Employment Statistics program, also known as the "establishment survey" in the monthly jobs report.
