TEHRAN, Iran —  Lighting fires that brightened the night sky, followers of Iran's minority Zoroastrian religion marked the Sadeh festival in several cities Tuesday, celebrating the end of the coldest winter days. Every year on January 30, Zoroastrians gather after sunset to celebrate the 50 days and 50 nights remaining until spring. Sadah, which means "the 100," is an ancient feast from when the religion was the dominant faith in the powerful Persian empire, which collapsed after the Arab invasion in the 7th century. On the southwestern outskirts of Tehran, several Zoroastrian priests and priestesses, dressed in white from head-to-toe to symbolize purity, led young followers to light a giant bonfire in a joyful ceremony. Around the fire, people listened to bands and theological lectures as they milled about while eating and celebrating. In a rare move, the Islamic Republic's air force band played the national anthem, among other tunes, to the excitement of the at

AWS CEO Adam Selipsky introduces “Amazon Q” at re:Invent 2023. (GeekWire Photo / Todd Bishop) Amazon will report its holiday quarter 2023 earnings on Thursday. Wall Street expects earnings of $0.80 per share and record revenue of $166 billion, up 11% year-over-year. Analysts will be watching growth rates for Amazon Web Services and advertising; potential impact from faster shipping times ; and updates related to generative AI, which was the big theme at the AWS re:Invent conference in November. Wedbush said in a recent report it expects Q4 operating income to exceed company guidance. “Operating margin expansion is supported by rising fulfillment utilization, easing inflation, limited corporate headcount growth, and continued mix shift to higher-margin advertising revenue,” the firm said. More recently Amazon has dealt with the termination of the company’s $1.4 billion acquisition of Roomba maker iRobot due to regulatory pushback. It is also facing scrutiny from the FTC, which

This is part of a larger, troubling pattern of antagonistic behavior and incitement by the Hawaii State Senate. Good Friday may be abolished in Hawaii, as a state holiday that is, if a bill introduced by Sens. Maile Shimabukuro, Stanley Chang, Kurt Fevella, Carol Fukunaga, Mike Gabbard and Joy San Buenaventura succeeds in getting passed into law this session. Senate Bill 3319, related to state holidays , would replace Good Friday with a new state holiday dubbed Reconciliation Day, to be celebrated on the 17th day in January. “The governor shall issue an annual proclamation recognizing Reconciliation Day as a day of reflection and remembrance, and encourage citizens to learn about and understand the history surrounding the overthrow of Queen Liliuokalani and the consequences of the continued illegal occupation of Hawaii,” the bill says. I find it interesting that the bill, which asserts that Hawaii is illegally occupied by the United States, does not take the logical next step of

JAKARTA, DDTCNews - Tim Nasional Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (Timnas AMIN) mempertanyakan fasilitas tax holiday yang diberikan oleh pemerintah dalam beberapa tahun terakhir untuk menarik investasi. Dewan Pakar Timnas AMIN Wijayanto Samirin mengatakan selama ini tax holiday lebih banyak diberikan untuk wajib pajak dari sektor-sektor yang padat modal dengan profitabilitas tinggi. "Tapi, sektor yang banyak mempekerjakan banyak orang kemudian marginnya tipis tidak dikasih insentif, ini manufaktur contohnya. Sehingga banyak yang gulung tikar, banyak PHK," ujar Wijayanto, dikutip Senin (29/1/2024).

"Untuk mewujudkan keadilan, prosesnya harus benar. Proses ya

Demand for pet sitters has grown in large Chinese cities as the Spring Festival holiday approaches and many pet owners plan trips to their hometowns to reunite with their families. Pet service providers said the boom in interest is due to the high costs associated with transporting pets or putting them up in kennels, as well as the emotional challenges the animals face when removed from their familiar environments. Freshippo, a supermarket operated by Alibaba Group, began providing pet feeding and dog walking services on Jan 12 in Shanghai. The services were specifically implemented to meet the demands of Spring Festival travelers. Jan 12 was the first day that Shanghai customers were able to book services, which will begin on Feb 6 and end on Feb 17. Spring Festival falls on Feb 10 this year. Freshippo employees will contact pet owners before the services begin to arrange for the handing over of house keys and discuss preparations, such as ensuring that pet food and water are lef

By Hannah Ritchie BBC News, Sydney York Festival In the town of York, Dennis Kickett is combing Australia Day celebrations with Indigenous storytelling On 26 January every year - which marks the 1788 landing of Britain's First Fleet in Sydney Cove - two competing stories about Australia are told. One is of nation-building and achievement; the other is of the theft and dispossession of Indigenous land. While many Indigenous people protest or sit the day out, this year Dennis Kickett is co-hosting a celebration like few others. "I imagine I'll cop some flak," says the Noongar elder. "But I don't see the date as a barrier." For the first time, his community of York near Perth will combine three days of Indigenous storytelling with the annual Australia day festivities. It will include a BBQ with traditional bush tucker and the raising of Australian and Aboriginal flags to welcome new citizens. Mr Kickett's aim is to us

Reward points, frugal Gen Z and buy now, pay later: These trends shaped the 2023 gift-buying season. Here’s why they’ll matter more to retailers in the early days of 2024. By Jenn McMillen In the classic holiday story “The Gift of the Magi,” the heroine sells her beautiful hair so she can afford to buy her young husband a Christmas gift. In 2023, she’d have used Afterpay or reward points, not scissors. These options – loyalty programs and buy now, pay later services – are among the many tools and trends that shaped the 2023 holiday gift-buying season. And they are, by default, what retailers can expect from shoppers in the early months of 2024. While 54% of shoppers felt financially burdened this holiday season, according to a report by Bankrate , and 23% said the holidays strained their budgets, consumers still spent 3.1% more on gifts and other items this season than they did in 2022, when spending rose by a sharp 7.6%. Many consumers were able to do so by being savvy about th

Guadalajara-based architect Moises Sánchez has created a stucco -clad, cube-shaped holiday home shaded by a large tree in western Mexico . The simple, 450-square foot (42-square metre) structure, known as Tonalli House, was completed in 2023 in Jocotepec, Jalisco, minutes from Lake Chapala, the country's largest lake. Tonalli House is shaped like a cube "The project arises from the pursuit of a peaceful experience, drawing inspiration from the rhythms and atmospheres of the popular architecture in Mexican villages,"  Sánchez told Dezeen. From the outside, the house is a solid white cube, punctuated with strategic openings. Using local construction systems, materials and labor, the cube is formed with brick walls plastered with a mix of sand and mortar to create two textures — a rough, stone-like base and a smooth monolithic form above. The holiday home is punctuated with strategic openings However, Sánchez prioritised the existing landscape in his descrip
