Pick up luxuries you can only justify with a discount or check off all the things you’ll need to buy anyway: holiday gifts, a replacement for the long-suffering mattress or living room couch, a new robovac, or an Instant Pot — at prices that are up to 80% cheaper than they will be next week. 

Below, you’ll find a list of stores with the best 2018 Black Friday sales on the internet (like Amazon, Nordstrom, Casper, and more).

We’ll be updating the stores and deals in real time, so check back in or bookmark this page if you don’t want to miss out on any great Black Friday deals.

  • The Washington, DC, area is buzzing with speculation that Northern Virginia could soon land Amazon HQ2.
  • Two sources said as much to Business Insider.
  • Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is amid a high-profile trip to Washington, DC.

The Washington, DC, area is buzzing with speculation that Amazon could soon select Northern Virginia as the location for its highly sought-after second headquarters, two sources told Business Insider.

Amazon has sought to tamp down on the speculation as the company’s CEO Jeff Bezos makes a high-profile visit to the region. Ahead of a major event on Thursday night where Bezos will be interviewed by Carlyle Group co-founder and co-CEO David Rubenstein at the DC Economic Club, Amazon told The Washington Post on Tuesday that no announcement would be forthcoming on Bezos’s visit to the city. Reached by Business Insider on Thursday, an Amazon spokesperson said they had nothing to add on top of what was reported in The Post.

  • Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey is reportedly taking abuse and spam on the platform more seriously.
  • Insiders saying he has more of a say in banning accounts, according to Fast Company.
  • Those insiders worry that Twitter could tilt over into censorship if Dorsey doesn’t establish policy, rather than intervening for individual accounts.
  • Twitter recently purged extremist right-wing accounts from its platform, such as former EDL leader Tommy Robinson.

Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey is reportedly getting more personally involved with blocking controversial accounts on the platform, a departure from an earlier, long-held ethos that the company is the “free speech wing of the free speech party.”

According to Fast Company, citing Twitter insiders and former employees, Dorsey had a say in booting conspiracy theorist and lobbyist Roger Stone from the platform.

Meghan Markle, 36, is set to wed Prince Harry, 33, in Windsor in May. While not a state occasion, the wedding has garnered worldwide interest.

American Meghan will have had lots to learn about British traditions and royal wedding rules while planning her day.

And reports have surfaced that the former Suits actress has turned to a close girlfriend to help her navigate the wedding planning waters.

Millie Mackintosh, 28, who shot to fame as one of the original cast members of reality show Made In Chelsea, has been friends with Meghan for a long time.

The pair were said to have met before Meghan began dating Harry in 2016, and were introduced by a mutual friend.

Speaking about Millie’s involvement with the wedding, a royal source told the Daily Mail: “Some very knowledgeable people are saying she is actually being considered as a bridesmaid.

“They have a really close relationship and Millie has been a real source of support to Meghan during her move from Toronto and her new life in London.”

Millie was one of the host of famous to make an appearance on Meghan’s Instagram account before she shut it down earlier this year.

A photo from the summer of 2016 showed the duo resting on bikes in the grounds of Soho Farmhouse, a private members club in Oxfordshire.

And on 1 September 2016, Meghan posted a photo of the two of them sharing friendship bracelets.

Meghan has also name checked Millie as a “go-to” friend to exercise with during magazine interviews.

In November 2016, Meghan spoke to Women’s Health about the former wife of rapper Professor Green.

Speaking to the publication the healthy eating fan said: “I’m eager to come to the UK to do a workout with Russell [Bateman], the founder of SBC.

“My friend Millie Macintosh raves about his workouts, so I’ll call her up to do a class together next time I’m back in London.”

Millie is the heir to Mackintosh’s, a British confectionery firm known for Mackintosh’s Toffee, Quality Street and Rolo.

She is also friends with Spencer Matthews, the brother of James Matthew who married Pippa Middleton last year.

Bitcoin values are skyrocketing, and North Korea appears to be trying to profit from that virtual gold rush. Secureworks reports that the Lazarus Group (a team linked to the North Korean government) has been conducting a spearphishing campaign against cryptocurrency industry workers in a bid to steal bitcoin. The attacks have tried to trick workers into compromising their computers by including a seemingly innocuous Word file that claims they need to enable editing to see the document. If they fell prey, it installed a rogue macro that quietly loaded a PC-hijacking trojan while staffers were busy looking at the bogus document.

Attempts have been taking place as recently as November, but Secureworks’ analysts saw activity as early as 2016. The organization adds that the campaign is likely still going, and that this is a preliminary report. You may get a better sense of the scope in the future.

It’s easy to see why Lazarus would try a campaign like this. It has already conducted money-grabbing efforts like the 2016 bank attack that swiped $ 81 million, and taking even a handful of bitcoins could reap a windfall when just one is worth roughly $ 19,400 as of this writing. North Korea could spend relatively little effort to swipe a lot of money and circumvent the many sanctions that prevent money from flowing in.

Orchids hold their leaves all year round making them a dream to grow

In their heyday during the 1970s, house plants covered every available domestic surface.

Spare-bedroom windowsills bristled with collections of African violets, spider plants would crawl out of macramé hanging-basket holders in the hallway and every living room seemingly had a rubber plant on top of the telly and the dining room would boast a terrarium full of tasteful tropical plants.

It was not uncommon – central heating had just caught on and a houseful of plants was as sophisticated as a lava lamp or fondue set.

You might think huge collections of indoor plants simply went out of style when the modern minimalist look came in but I reckon what started the rot was the workload.

By the time a newly liberated 1970s housewife had fed and watered, wiped, shined and dead-headed, as well as washing pot covers, treating bugs and clearing any spillage and sticky goo off her windowsills, she had said goodbye to several evenings each week.

When the 1980s and 1990s arrived, time spent tending to house plants had been swapped for socialising down at the wine bar.

It is amazing that houseplants are not extinct as they do make a mess.

But all is not lost as today’s fashion is for very few but big showy indoor plants – and largely the evergreen foliage kind that are far less inclined to shed. A quick way to check out pot plant trends is to see what is being used as set-dressing in photos in the glossy home interiors magazines but it is also worth visiting posh florists and garden centres to see what they have.

Cycads are good – dramatic abstract art plants that date back to the age of dinosaurs – as are exotics such as indoor bonsai or colourful calathea.

The theatrical novelties are modern must-haves, so try things you do not often see, such as Pachira aquatica – with its dramatic, drooping horse chestnut-like leaves – and Zamioculcas zamiifolia which has clumps of thick, waxy, upright comb-shaped leaves.

When cutting rose stems use sharp, clean cutters and cut the rose at an angle so they do not sit flat at the bottom of the vase, which could impede water intake

Flowering plants are out of favour unless it is something throwaway such as spring bulbs or pretty annuals that can be ditched when they are over.

The big exception, though, is orchids, especially the compact, pretty and very stylish moth orchid (phalaenopsis).

They look upmarket and minimalist and when it comes to mucky habits they are the answer to a charlady’s prayers.

They hold on to their leaves all year round and their flowers last a good three or four months before falling off cleanly.

The old flower stems produce new flowering side shoots so you do not even need to snip them off and the plants are quite pest-resistant.

When it comes to keeping a clean house, orchids really will play their part.

Know your rhubarb

Know your stuff when talking rhubarb

Most people are iffy about going out into the cold, rain or snow to gather veg.

But there is one very welcome winter crop you can pick from the comfort of your home – or rather your cupboards: rhubarb.

And not just any old rhubarb either – the long, thin, tender-forced sort that costs a fortune in the shops and which is so delightful for puds and pies.

Early-forced rhubarb is an old Yorkshire delicacy which is very easy to do at home.

Wait until they are about the same size and stage of development

You will need a few well-established rhubarb crowns that have been growing in the garden for at least a couple of years.

Dig one up now and leave the root exposed to the cold for two or three weeks, then plant it in a pot of soil and bring it indoors.

A completely dark place is essential and the warmer the better.

For fastest results use your airing cupboard but the cupboard under the stairs is fine.

You will see the first long, thin, tender-forced stems appearing within a few weeks.

There is no reason why you should not dig up and force the same root all over again

Wait until they are about the same size and stage of development as the early rhubarb you see in shops and then tug out a few stems leaving the rest of the root to keep growing – each root should produce several batches.

After a few weeks cropping, replant the crown outdoors and after a year off to recover it will be back to normal outdoor production.

Given another season outside there is no reason why you should not dig up and force the same root all over again.

But if you want forced rhubarb every single year it is worth having three crowns to use in rotation. There is nothing to stop you covering an established dormant rhubarb crown in the garden with an upturned pot or bucket stuffed with straw.

It will not be that much earlier than usual but the dark and the insulation will mean long, thin, succulent stems. Just watch out for snails, who enjoy the same conditions.

Pink skies, relentless sun, and black clouds rolling over the Valley before a storm all reveal the darkness and light that makes up the city’s vast network of overcrowded freeways and palm tree-lined streets.

Photographer C.M. Forbes has had a love affair with Los Angeles since he was 19 years old. (Full disclosure: your editor knows the artist.) Although he’s come and gone, he returned to the city recently and just published a book that documents the LA identity, it’s essence, and its allure. Forbes steers clear of LA’s glossy veneer and prefers “areas that are off the beaten path, a little rough around the edges, the forgotten spots, the faded glories,” he shared in an interview.

His new book Disappear Here features photos of LA’s worn and offbeat gems, captured intuitively with his mobile phone. Forbes shoots favorite LA haunts like the Griffith Observatory, but from an unusual perspective. Other photos are electrifying, cinematic, and mundane yet strange. See more of Forbes’ work in our gallery.

  • Some White House insiders and close associates of President Donald Trump have expressed concern about Trump’s behavior of late.
  • Ongoing feuds with members of his own party have isolated Trump as he struggles to implement his agenda.
  • Trump’s public fights on social media have only grown more intense including with members of his own party.
  • Trump has reportedly found himself isolated in a White House that’s far more subdued under the direction of chief of staff John Kelly.

A cadre of White House insiders and close associates of President Donald Trump have painted a grim picture of an increasingly volatile Trump, who in the last few weeks has found himself at the center of near-constant battles that have frequently spilled out into the public.

Trump’s most recent feuds, social-media spats, and public wars of words have pitted the president against critics — a handful of whom are from his own party. And the arguments have become increasingly bitter; a reflection of a volatile and isolated Trump, people interviewed by The Washington Post said in a report published on Monday night.

A person close to Trump likened the president to a “pressure cooker,” according to The Post; someone who could “explode” if not given a chance to “blow off steam.”

“I think we’re in pressure cooker territory,” the person told the newspaper.

The report comes at another challenging time for Trump’s still-nascent presidency. More than nine months into his first term, Trump has not yet succeeded in implementing the ambitious agenda he touted on the 2016 campaign trail. Repeated failures to repeal Obamacare have been a consistent source of angst for Trump, and his immigration agenda has suffered a number of false starts before the US Supreme Court handed the administration a nominal victory in June on the president’s controversial travel ban.

Trump, along with a Republican-led Congress has now turned its attention to tax reform, but Trump’s behavior in recent days could throw that effort into doubt, partly because of Trump’s latest battle with top Republican Sen. Bob Corker, who said last weekend he was concerned about Trump’s ability to lead, and the president’s penchant for brusquely speaking off-the-cuff on foreign-relations matters and issues of national security.

In an interview with The New York Times, Corker said Trump’s rhetoric could put the US on the path to World War III, and in a critique of the president’s behavior, Corker likened the White House to an “adult day-care center.”

Trump has lashed out at Corker, who recently announced he would not seek reelection in 2018. The president targeted Corker much in the same way he has done with other people who have landed on his bad side: by throwing darts at them on Twitter. Corker was his target on Sunday, but in the last nine months of his presidency Trump has gone after:

The Post reported on Monday than some close associates of Trump said the president’s angst stems from some lingering open wounds; voids that have left him feeling cornered, with few people left to soothe his frustrations.

Donald TrumpJonathan Ernst/ReutersTrump’s longtime confidant and head of Oval Office operation, Keith Schiller, recently left the administration and, because of chief of staff John Kelly’s strict oversight in the West Wing, Trump is left with few people with whom he can blow off steam, The Post’s report said.

Trump has been here before.

Less than a month before he won the election in a shocking victory over Hillary Clinton, The New York Times wrote of an “increasingly upset and alone Donald Trump,” a then-candidate fuming over near-constant GOP repudiation in the dwindling weeks of an explosive presidential race.

CNN would take a similar tack in late May this year, weeks after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey ahead of his first foreign trip as president.

The ongoing tirades — covering everything from his displeasure with people he considers disloyal, to outrage over media coverage and more — show no signs of ending.

And that has prompted some of Trump’s allies and detractors to question his capacity to fulfill his duties as president.

“He concerns me,” Corker said, according to The Times. “He would have to concern anyone who cares about our nation.”
