SpaceOne Launches Futuristic WorldTimer Watch for Global Travelers
SpaceOneenters its third chapter with the launch of the WorldTimer, a bold evolution of the brand's space-inspired design ethos. Following the success of theJumping HourandTelluriummodels, the WorldTimer is designed to accompany modern globetrotters through a timepiece that fuses space shuttle aesthetics with automotive design cues, courtesy of returning designerOlivier Gamiette.
Departing from traditional watchmaking norms, the WorldTimer replaces classic hands with a system of rotating discs. The display architecture includes a minutes disc at 3 o'clock, a central seconds disc, a 12-hour disc at 6 o'clock. On top of that are dual coaxial discs at 9 o'clock that indicate the 24-hour time and corresponding cities. This innovative layout is paired with a three-position crown that allows for intuitive adjustments: manual winding, quick city disc setting and synchronized 12H/24H time setting.
Crafted from Grade 5 titanium – chosen for its strength and lightness – the timepiece is finished with a mix of polished, brushed and sandblasted textures that play with light and form. A sapphire dome protects the 24-hour and city discs, as well as the hour disc, reinforcing the watch's futuristic character.
Inside, the WorldTimer is powered by the reliable Soprod P024 automatic movement, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 38-hour power reserve. The in-house WorldTimer complication, developed and assembled in Paris, underscores the brand's commitment to mechanical ingenuity.
With only 600 pieces available in the first batch, the SpaceOne WorldTimer will be offered for pre-order starting June 26 at €2,700 EUR (approx. $3,111 USD ). For more information, head over to the brand's officialwebsite.

My Honest Opinion of Energy Transfer Stock
Key Points Energy Transfer operates in the midstream sector, using a largely fee-based model. The master limited partnership has a lofty 7.4% distribution yield. There are lower-yielding midstream companies that I prefer over Energy Transfer. 10 stocks we like better than Energy Transfer › I recognize that there are good reasons for investors to buy Energy Transfer (NYSE: ET) today. I can even appreciate that the master limited partnership (MLP) has taken important steps to strengthen its business in ways that should appease the concerns I have about the investment. Yet, I still think alternatives like Enterprise Products Partners (NYSE: EPD) and Enbridge (NYSE: ENB) are better. Here's my honest opinion of why Energy Transfer isn't the best option in the midstream space. What does Energy Transfer do? Energy Transfer helps to move oil and natural gas around the world. It owns a collection of energy infrastructure assets, like pipelines, that generate reliable fee-based income. Without the assets Energy Transfer owns, producers wouldn't be able to get their oil and natural gas to processors and refiners, or the end consumer. From this perspective, Energy Transfer's core business is pretty similar to that of fellow MLP Enterprise Products Partners and Canadian midstream giant Enbridge. But Energy Transfer's distribution yield is 7.4%, versus a yield of 7% for Enterprise and dividend yield of 6% for Enbridge. The yield difference here matters. You are taking a higher risk with Energy Transfer For starters, Energy Transfer is, in some ways, a much more complicated business than Enterprise or Enbridge. They all own a host of assets, but Energy Transfer is also the general partner for two other publicly traded MLPs. That's not the biggest part of its business, but it makes things a bit more difficult to track. This alone wouldn't be enough to stop me from buying Energy Transfer, but it does give Enterprise and Enbridge, which are simpler businesses to understand, an edge in my book. The big problem comes down to trust. Enterprise has increased its distribution annually for 26 consecutive years. Enbridge's dividend has grown for three decades. Energy Transfer cut its dividend in 2020, right when most income investors would have likely wanted dividend consistency given the pandemic and bear market at the time. If this were the only issue, since the dividend is back on the growth path and above where it was before the cut, I might be able to overlook it. But there's more. In 2016, Energy Transfer agreed to buy Williams Companies (NYSE: WMB). But an energy downturn at the time led to management getting cold feet. It scuttled the deal, which might have required taking on a huge amount of debt, a dividend cut, or both. This was probably the right move, but it issued convertible securities as part of the process of killing the deal. The CEO at the time bought a material amount of the convertibles, which appeared as though it would have protected him from a dividend cut if one were needed. Even years later, I still can't help but wonder if insiders get favored more than investors at Energy Transfer. There's no similar event at Enterprise or Enbridge and, thus, I trust these two midstream competitors more. Add it all up, and I can't justify buying Energy Transfer Yes, Energy Transfer has a slightly higher yield than Enterprise and Enbridge. But the added risk I'd be taking on, notably on the trust side of the equation, isn't justifiable in my book. I'm happier with lower yields and more trust. After all, it's not like Enterprise or Enbridge have low yields. They're just lower than Energy Transfer's yield, which makes sense when you consider the risks here.

Rental units in unincorporated L.A. County must stay cool under new law
Los Angeles County will soon require landlords in unincorporated parts of the county to keep their rental units 82 degrees or below to protect vulnerable tenants from the impacts of climate change. Supervisors said Tuesday that the law, which passed 4-0, was necessary to combat heat-related deaths, which have increased across the nation. Supervisor Kathryn Barger was not present for the vote. 'As we continue to face warmer summers, the ordinance is meant to provide relief to our unincorporated residents and to protect them from the dangers of extreme heat in their homes,' said Supervisor Hilda Solis, who pushed for staff to start drafting the law last year. The law is set to take effect next month, but it will not be enforced until Jan. 2027, though landlords can ask for an extension. Both old and newly constructed rental units will need to comply. Read more: Triple-digit temperatures on deck as heat wave descends on SoCal, elevating fire, health concerns Landlords with fewer properties will have additional time. Supervisor Janice Hahn introduced an amendment so that landlords who own 10 units or less will be able to keep just one room at 82 degrees or lower until 2032. Officials said deadly heat waves, which have become more frequent and intense across the state, presented a clear public health emergency for the county. 'Communities across Los Angeles County in my district, especially in the San Fernando Valley, are experiencing previously unimaginable temperatures,' said Supervisor Lindsey Horvath. 'Woodland Hills alone has recorded 121 degrees. This is unthinkable.' In Phoenix, landlords are required to keep units with air conditioning at 82 degrees or below. In Clark County, Nev., units can't go above 85 degrees. In Palm Springs, units need to have air conditioning and can't go above 80 degrees. Officials said the new law will be enforced through complaints, so tenants can call the county if they believe the temperature in their unit is too high. An inspector with the county's Department of Public Health would then be dispatched to inspect the unit. Barbara Ferrer, the head of the department, said the goal was to get the homes as cool as possible without issuing a fine. 'The way forward, frankly, isn't going to be to rely on that authority to issue citations,' she said. 'It's going to be to educate folks.' Read more: Dealing with extreme heat is a full-time job for parents of young kids — and their schools County officials said they were encouraging landlords to cool down units through 'passive," environmentally-friendly methods other than air conditioners. That could include blackout curtains, reflective roofing and triple-paned windows Fred Sutton, with the California Apartment Assn., said he was concerned that, by requiring every room to be at a certain temperature, landlords could be penalized if just one room got too hot. 'You could have your bedrooms, living room, and dining room actively cooled, but the kitchen is not actively cooled and gets to 83 degrees,' he said. 'You are creating really tough scenarios in a building that's totally adequately cooled.' Sign up for Essential California for news, features and recommendations from the L.A.

Chargers bring back Keenan Allen after one season with Bears
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — The Los Angeles Chargers agreed Tuesday to terms with six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Keenan Allen. Allen returns to the team that drafted him in 2013 after one season with the Chicago Bears. He is second in Chargers history for both receptions (904) and receiving yards (10,530) for a wide receiver. The Chargers traded him to the Bears last offseason for a fourth-round draft pick. Allen had 70 catches for 744 yards and seven TDs in Chicago. Allen reunites with quarterback Justin Herbert, who made the 33-year-old wide receiver his favorite target in their time together, with Allen catching 24 TD passes. Allen joins a wide receiver corps that is different than in recent years. Ladd McConkey returns for his second season after breaking Allen's single-season rookie record for catches and yards. They also have Quentin Johnston, Tyler Conklin and rookies Tre' Harris and KeAndre Lambert-Smith after free agent Mike Williams suddenly retired before the start of training camp. Allen started 138 of 144 games for the Chargers in his first stint with the team. He had a record-setting season in 2023, making a single-season franchise-record 108 catches. ___ AP NFL:
