By Ben Konuch
"This planet has suffered five extinctions. This is going to be the sixth."
"Moonfall", the newest disaster movie from Roland Emmerich, finds itself in an interesting conundrum. Part disaster epic, part sci-fi thriller, “Moonfall” can’t quite fit fully into a specific genre, but it does manage to craft a unique identity against the crowded library of the disaster movie genre. While the film does have uneven pacing in the first act and the main twist at the end will leave ...

By Esther Fultz
Markets don’t exist in a vacuum. Social and political factors constantly influence the economy.

While data regarding the economic situation in Afghanistan is currently sparse, the deterioration is apparent.
The World Food Program reported a 2021 increase from 42 million to 45 million people worldwide teetering on the edge of famine. ...

While some may be wary of this ...
