There is an impression that it rains a lot in the UK. But parts of Spain, often thought of as a very dry country, have far more rain than much of Scotland does. Barcelona (red arrow) is wetter than Elgin on the Moray coast. East Lothian is comfortably drier than Bilbao.

Paramount just bought a $111 billion media empire with a $12 billion market cap. Read that again. Paramount’s market cap is roughly $12 billion. Warner Bros. Discovery’s enterprise value in this deal is $111 billion. David Ellison is buying a company nearly 10x his own company’s size. How? Larry Ellison’s net worth: $201 billion. He’s personally guaranteeing the equity commitment. Bank of America, Citi, and Apollo are providing $57.5 billion in debt financing. Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, Abu Dhabi’s L’imad Holdings, and the Qatar Investment Authority are providing equity. The combined entity will carry over $90 billion in debt. This tells you everything about what actually happened. Netflix offered $83 billion for the studios and streaming (the good parts). Paramount offered $111 billion for everything (including the dying cable networks nobody else wanted). Netflix looked at the math to match Paramount and said “at this price, the deal is no longer financially attractive.” That’s Netflix-speak for “we’re not overpaying for linear TV in 2026.” Netflix stock jumped 10% on the news it lost. Paramount rose 5%. The market is telling you which company made the better decision. What makes this really interesting: Paramount promised $6 billion in cost synergies. That’s code for mass layoffs across two studios, two streaming platforms, and overlapping cable networks. CNN and CBS News under one roof. HBO Max and Paramount+ merged. They’ll need those savings because the debt service on $90 billion will be brutal. David Ellison attended Trump’s State of the Union as Lindsey Graham’s guest on Tuesday. Ted Sarandos was at the White House Thursday afternoon. Both were lobbying. Ellison won. And his father’s close ties to Trump will matter when DOJ reviews a deal that puts CBS, CNN, HBO, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, MTV, and TNT under one owner. The real story: a 42-year-old with a rocky box office track record just assembled the largest media conglomerate in history, financed by his father’s fortune, Middle Eastern sovereign wealth, and $57.5 billion in bank debt. Netflix walked away richer. The question is whether Paramount can service the debt load while linear TV revenue keeps declining or whether this becomes the most expensive content library acquisition ever assembled on borrowed time.

Netflix is declining to raise their bid to buy Warner Bros. Paramount is now expected to acquire the studio.

Michael Healy-Rae’s just bought another huge house for €485,000, to accommodate Ukrainian refugees. Its part of his large property portfolio Roughty Properties Ltd. Minister Healy-Rae has declined to comment on this specific purchase. In 2024 alone, Minister Healy-Rae’s "Rosemount" brand received €470,640 from the Department of Children, Disability, and Equality for housing Ukrainian refugees. Roughty Properties Ltd is now Healy-Rae’s most profitable business, seeing combined profits of over €841,000 across 2023 and 2024. He has declared 17 separate properties for letting, 14 of which are houses. But sure ya know yerself like! He's definitely not a cute hoor, profiteering from the immigration industry. And it's definitely not a conflict of interest.....

Leinster House bike shed official handed €200.000 goodbye - Claire Scott Maurice Buckley's exit payment raises questions about civil service remuneration at the highest levels The former chairman of the Office of Public Works who signed off on the contentious Leinster House bike shed received a €224,000 exit payment when he retired. The Sunday Times has previously revealed that Buckley expensed trips to Paris for an executive training programme less than a year before he left public service, and then had a retirement party that cost €7,455. #HowIrelandWorks #BikeShed #OPW thetimes.com/article/caa460…

Trump betrayed Ukraine, secretly colluded with Russians against Europe, and has a secret line with the Kremlin outside of official overview, hidden from everyone including US spy / national security agencies. These are the reddest of flags. A spy sits at the White House.

WSJ with a devastating, intensely-sourced article demonstrating how Trump, Kushner, and Witkoff tried to sellout Ukraine, the U.S., and Europe for money. It's so bad one of our European allies shared evidence of the planned business deals. A must-read. wsj.com/world/russia/r…

i spent 18 months testing LinkedIn DM sequences to book high-ticket B2B calls finally cracked the code on one that gets 5-10 qualified replies every single day completely on autopilot this isn't some generic "hey saw your profile" bullshit that gets ignored this sequence works because it does the opposite of what everyone else is doing no pitching, no asking for calls, no "quick question" just strategic positioning that makes prospects reply and ask how to work with you works for any B2B offer over $5k follow, like and comment "SEQUENCE" and i'll send you the exact template

AI does 90% of our initial GTM strategy formulation all in just these 6 prompts. This has been a MASSIVE unlock for speed to winning GTM for our diverse client base. Here’s what these prompts cover: 1/ Deep Market Research This prompt pulls all relevant information specific to what would be useful for GTM knowledge for the company you're looking to develop a GTM strategy for. The purpose of generating this information is to use it as context for future prompting. 2/ TAM Mapping This prompt will discover all relevant industries & sub-industries that your company could work with, plus statistics on general market size, industry value, and industry growth rates. Outputs from this prompt will also be useful context for other prompts. 3/ ICP Validation This prompt will develop ICPs from the industries uncovered from the TAM Mapping output. It will score each industry segment from highest to lowest priority, find the best fit personas from each industry segment, outline their specific needs & pain points, and craft some messaging ideas around this information. 4/ Company Account Sourcing This deep research prompt will find unique databases for any set of company data that you are looking for. From online directories, to scraping methods, to other niche paid databases - this prompt will give you a list of best fit options for your particular targeting case. 5/ Targeting Keywords Generation This prompt will generate a list of relevant industry and persona keywords to use for specific database filtering for when your developing lists in tools like Apollo. These keywords are typically a lot more accurate than using the general industry filtering. 6/ Messaging Creation This prompt will create multiple email script variations based on the context generated from previous prompts.
