Nobody likes a less-than-satisfactory dining experience. Apparently, however, we need to kick it up a notch and dress better to receive better restaurant service from the wait staff! A recent study shows that they’re more likely to provide excellent service to those who are dressed nicely.Dress to Impress the Servers for an Excellent Restaurant ServiceIn every establishment you’ll be dining out, the wait staff will almost always anticipate tips from the patrons they serve — but they also know that they have to provide great restaurant service in order to receive a generous amount of it! However, in a recent survey that researchers from the University of Missouri conducted, it shows that servers are more likely to provide better restaurant service to the ones who are well-dressed — as they believe that the better-dressed diners will leave the best tips, compared to customers who are dressed more casually.The customer’s race didn’t matter to the surveyed wait staff either.

Suicides need to be talked about more — but finding ways to prevent suicides is even more important. One solution is by discussing with your loved ones if you have suicidal ideations. On the other hand, reaching out to those whom you think are in trouble should also be done. But learning some of the causes of suicides can also be a solution. Recently, scientists came up with another hypothesis as to why there’s an increase in suicides whenever there’s a full moon — this phenomenon, apparently, has been happening for thousands of years.The Correlation Between Lunar Events and Full Moon SuicideHas the full moon always been observed to contribute to the increase in suicides or mental illnesses?The phenomenon of full moon suicide may have been noticed as early as the Roman times. Philosophers Aristotle and Pliny the Elder argued that the “nocturnal dew” was what caused lunacy and epilepsy during the full moon phase.Though we can no longer trace who coined the word “lunatic,” the Merriam...Jose Trujillo Arrested Following Hit-and-Run Crash on 45th Street [Long Beach, CA]

Published Sun, 10 Nov 2024 23:33:33 GMT
Beau may be afraid but Ari Aster certainly isn’t.Of the many words used to describe the writer-director’s previous two films — “Hereditary” and “Midsommar” — timidity was never of them. This is a filmmaker who has sent Toni Collette skittering across the ceiling and intricately arranged mutilated bodies the way some people make bouquets.But if any doubts remained about just how far Aster is willing to go, “Beau Is Afraid” should pacify them. Not because of the degree of terror within it; by Aster’s high standards, “Beau Is Afraid” is notably less ghastly than his first two outings. But it’s even more audaciously grotesque, more self-evidently pulled from its director’s psyche, more a work of a filmmaker’s unfiltered, runaway imagination.Rather than slotting in as a “horror” film, it can be categorized a little less neatly as a surreal three-hour Homeric odyssey about Jewish guilt, Oedipal...Shot teen’s mom: Lots of tears, but he’s coping well

By Margaret Stafford and Jim Salter | Associated PressKANSAS CITY, Mo. — The mother of Ralph Yarl, the Black teenager shot when he mistakenly went to the wrong Kansas City, Missouri, home to pick up his younger brothers, said her son is crying “buckets of tears” as he comes to grips with what happened to him.“Ralph is doing considerably well,” Cleo Nagbe told “CBS Mornings” co-host Gayle King on Tuesday. “Physically, mornings are hard, but his spirits are in a good place. I borrow from his spirits. He is in very good hands.”Nagbe said the trauma remains evident. She said her 16-year-old son is “able to communicate mostly when he feels like it, but mostly he just sits there and stares and the buckets of tears just rolls down his eyes.”“You can see that he is just replaying the situation over and over again, and that just doesn’t stop my tears either,” she said.Kansas City police said the shooter, 84-year-ol...Historic San Francisco hotel atop famed hill is officially foreclosed and bought
