Ather 450X subscription vs full-price purchase: What’s the difference?
We explain the difference between subscribing to the Ather 450X versus buying it at full price. Ever since the prices of the new Ather 450X were announced, there’s been considerable confusion and debate about the optional subscription plans. Some of the comments we received questioned the feasibility of these subscription plans (Plus and Pro), while some were curious about the benefits of the same. The company also offered the option of buying its new e-scooter without the subscription plans at an outright price of Rs 1.49 lakh and Rs 1.59 lakh for the Plus or Pro configuration, respectively. This has generated quite a bit of confusion and Ather has tried to clear doubts.But before we begin, if you're wondering why the Ather 450X suddenly seems far more expensive than the old 450 that cost Rs 1.13 lakh (ex-showroom), it is because it is. The company says it was losing a lot of money on every scooter sold at that price and they simply couldn't keep it going at that rate. Even at these new prices, Ather says it…

I was really craving ham hocks, lima beans, and cornbread for a long time, it's one of those hot meals that hits you in a good spot especially when it's cold outside it keeps you feeling warm all night. I used to work for a guy that bought me dinner all the time, he and his wife liked to watch me eat. It wasn't one of those weird things, I did it fully clothed. One of the foods he bought me was ham hocks, lima beans, and cornbread. I could slam down 3/4 of a pot of that stuff, good and hot with chili's and a few pitchers of brew. Now, of course, those pitchers would be water but then I was still drinking. I have been thinking about lima beans and ham hocks so much I could almost taste it until yesterday when I was walking through thy blessed MILPAS UNDERPANTS and saw a huge pile of Lima Beans and bits of Ham splattered on the sidewalk in front of a camp. Now I cannot get that odor out of my nose and I almost added to it. I think I will stay on this side of my MILPAS UNDERPANTS a while. I just thought I'd share…

The passenger, in turn, wishes to avoid showing anything that might be construed as a suspect symptom. Whatever you do, do not cough, splutter or sweat in nervousness. Best to wear a mask then: neither party can accurately gauge the disposition of the other.

Yesterdaze: What are the odds?
On an international day of anonymous gift-giving, James Elliott looks at some anonymous gift-giving of our own and places some bets It’s Valentine’s Day, the day on which we celebrate the bloody beating and beheading of the Roman priest Valentine in 270 AD by sending people anonymous expressions of affection and gifts. It’s basically socially sanctioned stalking, as actively aided and abetted by retailers like florists, chocolatiers and sellers of Hallmark cards. It all sounds like jolly good fun and only a little bit creepy but as any politician will tell you, and as two active Serious Fraud Office investigations into political donations illustrate, the receiving of gifts, anonymous or otherwise, can be quite problematic. Just ask Winston Peters. One of the two SFO investigations relates to claims that NZ First funnelled monetary donations through the secretive NZ First Foundation to avoid public disclosure as required under the Electoral Act. And just to clarify, the foundation’s name is not the “Secretive…

The Number Ones: Chic’s “Good Times”
In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. *** Chic – "Good Times" HIT #1: August 18, 1979 STAYED AT #1: 1 week "Here it is, y'all," Nile Rodgers told us. "The song that started hip-hop." This was in the summer of 2000, and Chic were playing a free show at Central Park SummerStage. Rodgers, never Chic's vocalist, still made for a great hypeman throughout the evening, throwing in asides about how everyone used to go off in the clubs to these songs. Halfway though "Good Times," Rodgers even underlined his point about the song, rapping a few bars of the Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight." Apparently, he now does this every time Chic perform "Good Times." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er9xGRolrT4 Rodgers was not, strictly speaking, correct. Hip-hop had been an underground phenomenon in the Bronx and elsewhere in New York for years before Chic

Trump's latest possible quid pro quo involves New York, airport travel, and his tax returns
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) visited President Trump on Thursday afternoon to try and negotiate the reversal of his administration's new ban on New Yorkers participating in the Global Entry and "trusted traveler" programs, which ease border crossings and airport security lines for enrolled travelers. Cuomo had low hopes, and they were met. The governor's office and acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf said talks will continue. Before the meeting, Trump floated what appeared to be an offer he hoped New York couldn't refuse. Cuomo "must understand that National Security far exceeds politics," he tweeted, an apparent reference to the administration's purported rationale for blocking New Yorkers from the programs. "New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harrassment [sic]." New York Attorney General Letitia James — who won a $2 million settlement from Trump over his canceled family charity and is suing him and his business on multiple fronts, including for his financial records — clapped back.…
