Universal Music Group Files Confidentially for US Listing
(Bloomberg) -- Universal Music Group NV has filed confidentially for a US listing, which would fulfill the terms of a deal with billionaire Bill Ackman's hedge fund Pershing Square. Why the Federal Reserve's Building Renovation Costs $2.5 Billion Salt Lake City Turns Winter Olympic Bid Into Statewide Bond Boom Milan Corruption Probe Casts Shadow Over Property Boom How San Jose's Mayor Is Working to Build an AI Capital The Amsterdam-listed firm submitted documents to the US Securities & Exchange Commission relating to a proposed offering by certain of its shareholders, according to a statement Monday. The world's largest music company won't receive any proceeds from the sale. Universal Music's shares rose 0.9% to €27.31 apiece at 9:51 a.m. in European trading on Tuesday, leading gains in Amsterdam's AEX Index. The filing comes after Universal said in January it would plan the US listing in order to satisfy an agreement with Pershing Square, a statement at the time showed. Ackman resigned from Universal's board in May, citing increasing demands on his time from commitments including his appointment as Executive Chairman of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. Universal Music, which is the label for artists including Taylor Swift, had in recent months resisted Ackman's push to move its domicile and delist it from Euronext Amsterdam. Pershing Square had urged Universal Music to pursue a US listing, saying it would substantially increase the valuation of the shares. A group of shareholders affiliated with Pershing Square in March raised more than €1.3 billion ($1.5 billion) from the sale of about a 2.7% stake in the Hilversum, Netherlands-headquartered firm, Bloomberg News reported. --With assistance from Sarah Jacob.

Museum unveils 1,300-year-old monk doodles revealing surprising complaints about hangovers and weather
Newly displayed 1,300-year-old doodles suggest that medieval monastic life wasn't all about solemn chants and holy scripture. Now on view at the National Museum of Ireland, Kildare Street, the scribbles are part of the "Words on the Wave: Ireland and St. Gallen in Early Medieval Europe" exhibit until October 24. In a release shared with Fox News Digital, the museum confirmed that the medieval-focused exhibition features over 100 objects and free admission for visitors. Seventeen ancient manuscripts, on loan from Switzerland's seventh-century Abbey Library of St. Gall, will be on view for visitors. One of the exhibit's most curious books is called Priscian's Institutiones Grammaticae, which contains "thousands of scribbles in the margins by monks in the Old Irish language," according to the museum. Though the book was written in the sixth century, the doodles were penned most likely by northern Irish monks in the 850s. "[They] offer us a rare and very real glimpse into the daily lives and personalities of early medieval Irish monks." "It was probably written in the monasteries of Nendrum or Bangor in the North of Ireland but was on the Continent within a decade of being written," the press release noted. The museum also said the books feature "witty banter" – but you'd need to understand Old Irish to get the jokes. Curator Matthew Seaver shared some of the highlights of the doodles with The Guardian. One monk wrote that he was "ale-killed" — or having a hangover. Other friars scribbled complaints about cold weather and poor-quality materials. "New parchment, bad ink. O I say nothing more," one humorous scribbling reveals. In another entry, a monk worried about a Viking raid. The writing reads, "Bitter is the wind tonight, it tosses the ocean's white hair: I fear not the coursing of a clear sea by the fierce heroes from Lothlend." Seaver noted that the scribbles are "full of human voices, humor, frustration and resilience." "[They] offer us a rare and very real glimpse into the daily lives and personalities of early medieval Irish monks," the historian said. Also on display is an 8th-century brooch, a Viking sword and Ireland's oldest and largest container of sacred books, called the Lough Kinale Book Shrine. In a statement, NMI chair Cathal O'Donoghue said he was "honored to be entrusted with such a significant loan." "This is the most significant exhibition at the National Museum, Kildare Street in decades," O'Donoghue said. "The exhibition of the manuscripts provides a unique context for the display of artifacts from our own collection, many of which have recently been conserved and are on public display for the first time."

Heart-warming moment between Alex Ferguson and former stars
Former Manchester United players' love and respect for the club's most successful manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, is legendary. There was a heart-warming moment caught on camera between former players Rio Ferdinand, Michael Carrick and Ferguson as the two former stars were recording a podcast together. Golden era together The three figures were integral parts of United's golden era which saw numerous trophies arrive to Old Trafford. They all coincided at the club from Carrick's arrival from Tottenham Hotspur in 2006 until Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013. In that time, they won five Premier League titles, a Champions League, two league cups and the Club World cup in 2008. Podcast banter While Carrick was speaking on Ferdinand's podcast series, their interview was interrupted by their former manager. As the two former players were chatting, Ferguson approached the table and asserted, 'I'm not doing the podcast!' Ferdinand assured him that they were going to have a chat after and told him to grab a quick coffee as they finished. Carrick also claimed that they were just finishing and that they would grab some food with the boss after they had completed their chat. As the former manager was about to leave, Ferdinand joked with him, 'you haven't dressed for the camera, have you?', which drew laughter from the Scotsman. He then retorted that he would sit at the table next to them and 'just listen to the nonsense that you talk.' Moments later in the video, there is another hilarious moment when Ferguson's phone loudly rings in the middle of their podcast and both former players are left unsure how to react to the situation. Ferdinand posted about the interaction on X and commented, 'when the Boss (Sir Alex) walks in and interrupts your recording… wait till the end when his phone rings.' He also added, 'even after 12 years, we still can't find the courage to tell him off!!' Genuine bond from those glory years While many fans have got used to the poorer relationships between squads and more recent United managers, these interactions over a decade later demonstrate the immense feeling of belonging and brotherhood that existed in Old Trafford's dressing room during the glory years at the club.
