London is one of the contactless payment capitals of the world, making it reasonably practical to wander around without cash – which can be a problem for street musicians … No cash in your pocket means no coins to throw in a hat, but London’s mayor has a solution: enable musicians and other performers to accept contactless payments, including Apple Pay. The Guardian reports on the initiative (in the UK, street performers are known as buskers)....

Crafting compelling tales of beauty and pain, J.A. Bayona has been carving out his niche as a daring director. Thanks to the support of Guillermo del Toro, the Spanish filmmaker broke onto the scene in 2007 with the tender yet terror-laced The Orphanage. He followed the critically heralded horror-thriller with The Impossible, a heart-wrenching drama detailing the true story of a family of tourists swept up and traumatized by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami....

Jessica Jones Season 2 is streaming now on Netflix, but before you start the superhero PI’s latest adventure, here’s a refresher on what happened in Season 1. Jessica is about to dive deep into her own history, investigating the history of IGH - the company that gave Jessica her powers - but there are darker things in her past than just that. It’s been three years since the first season of her solo series, and although Jessica returned in last year’s Defenders series, that’s a lot of time spent drinking and beating up punks....

Apple’s record-breaking share buybacks have been one of the keys to the longest-running bull market in US stock market history, suggests a new analysis … Business Insider argues that a high level of stock buybacks has been the ‘backbone’ of US stock performance – and that Apple has led the way. Stock buybacks by S&P 500 companies hit a new record in Q2, and look set to continue. After the S&P 500 started to recover from its financial crisis low in March 2009, companies that were flush with cash started to buy back shares....

After nuking fears that the iPhone X may be a colossal failure somehow, Apple’s stock price has been on a climb this week with AAPL touching a new high during intraday trading. As CNBC notes, investors responded positively to Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway firm upping its investment in Apple by 75 million shares last quarter. Apple CEO Tim Cook has responded to the news of Berkshire’s investment: Buffett described Apple as an ‘unbelievable company’ that ‘earns almost twice as much as the second most profitable company’ in the US, and Buffett’s faith in Apple helped push the stock price up to $183....

Daisy Ridley reveals the piece of advice she received from Star Wars: The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams when she signed on for the lead role of Rey in the hotly-anticipated film. Lucasfilm’s big screen renaissance of the galaxy far, far away is in full swing, with The Last Jedi just a couple of months away from hitting theaters. Of course, this new era of Star Wars on film got started with the release of Episode VII, which pinned its hopes and dreams not on the returning veterans Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher, but a new generation of characters to be portrayed by John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, and Ridley....
