Now that pandemic-related strain is evening out, rising energy costs will be the biggest headache for cold chain logistics providers, according to a joint white paper by Maersk and Reuters.

’Trust and Technology: The Links in a Sustainable Cold Chain’ quotes Maersk head of cold chain logistics Europe Stein Van Est describing energy prices as “a concern.”

“Suppliers are now working these into their contracts,” he said. “Previously, we might have seen a clause for diesel adjustment factors, today these clauses involve adjustments for energy prices.”

Where the Crawdads Sing is a 2022 American mystery and drama film based on the 2018 excellent novel of the same name by Delia Owens.

Daisy Edgar-Jones stars brilliantly in this atmospheric adaptation of the best-selling novel.

For years, rumors of the ‘Marsh Girl’ have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life – until the unthinkable happens.

This is a mesmerizing film, as good as the book. I really loved this movie and highly recommend both the film and the book.

A strong 4/5.

I am a great Eagles fan. for me it started with the epic Hotel California album in 1976, one of the best records of all times.

We all know the final lines of the title song, ”You can check out any time you like, But you can never leave!”

”You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave!”

The hotel is located in the town of Todos Santos on Baja California Sur, about 1,000 miles (1,609 km) south of San Diego and 48 miles (77 km) north of Cabo San Lucas.

While all signs seem to point to this hotel being the one, the reality is a bit more complicated. The similarities also could be a coincidence, even though many Eagles fans travel to the hotel in tribute.

“Baja is flip flop funky… Todos Santos… lined with artisans shops, and it is here that you will find The Hotel California.”

Vanity Fair

Think about it — If you rename any hotel in Mexico to “Hotel California” it will likely seem like the song is referencing that hotel. Desert highways, shimmering lights in the door, those are all common traits for hotels in Mexico during that period. The Todos Santos hotel is more compelling because it was built before the song.

We will likely never know for sure. Writer, composer, singer and Eagles frontman Don Henley has always refused to tell. Knowing what I know about Henley and the band that will remain and we will continue to try to find it.
