LONDON — (AP) — Anguilla is raking in extra revenue from registration fees for its .ai web domain thanks to the artificial intelligence boom, but it's not the only place cashing in on demand for websites with distinctive address endings.
Here's a look at some other places cashing in on their unique top-level domains:
TUVALU
Tuvalu is a string of coral atolls, scattered over hundreds of miles in the Pacific Ocean, located midway between Australia and Hawaii. It has one of the world's smallest economies and its low-lying islands are vulnerable to climate change, but it does have a very valuable resource: the .tv web domain. Royalties from .tv, which web users might assume is short for television, have been climbing, especially after videogame streaming platform Twitch licensed the web address twitch.tv.
LIBYA
The North African country, which has been plagued by turmoil since longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi's death in 2011, isn't readily associated with internet culture. But Libya controls web addresses that end in .ly, which have become widely used as a so-called domain hack for websites with English names that end in -ly. Well-known examples include bit.ly, used by the weblink shortening service Bitly, and parse.ly, the website for online analytics platform Parse.ly.
MONTENEGRO
This Balkan country became an independent nation after the breakup of Yugoslavia. It's one of Europe's smaller countries — about 620,000 people — bordered by the Adriatic Sea, Bosnia, Kosovo, Serbia and Albania. Montenegro was assigned the .me web domain, which has become popular with people who want to claim their pronoun for personal branding.
Websites ending in .me are “often used for personal websites, portfolios, blogs and online resumes or portfolios because ‘me’ can be seen as a way to personalize an online presence,” website builder Wix says.
COLOMBIA
Websites that end in .co aren't from a generic web domain for companies, like .com sites. The .co domain is assigned to Colombia, but the South American country allows anyone to sign up for its web addresses. Internet registrar GoDaddy says more than 2 million .co web domains have been claimed, including addresses claimed by Big Tech names like Amazon which uses it to redirect online shoppers to its .com home page. Google, meanwhile, informs visitors to g.co that the link is it's official shortcut.

NBA social awkwardly ignores Caitlin Clark's boyfriend Connor McCaffery
Caitlin Clark is a generation star. It can be argued that she’s the most transcendent name for the new generation across both the WNBA and NBA.
So when the Indiana Fever phenom and WNBA Rookie of the Year was sitting courtside with her boyfriend, newly named Butler Bulldogs assistant coach (and former Indiana Pacers assistant coach) Connor McCaffery strolled into the Pacers preseason game vs. the Memphis Grizzlies, it was only natural that fans and media were going to notice.
RELATED: Smack-talking Caitlin Clark after viral almost hole-in-one is what you missed
Well apparently the official NBA social handles didn’t feel like he was enough of a name to recognize in their clipped video post with Clark’s teammate Kelsey Mitchell, who is actually a free agent, which of course fans were reading into if this was a good omen that she was re-signing with the Fever.
Other outlets were all over the date night for the Iowa Hawkeyes college sweethearts, where Clark was the biggest name on campus, but McCaffery is also Iowa royalty as the son of men’s basketball head coach Fran McCaffery. Not to mention Connor, 26, was an assistant for the Indiana Pacers.
Compare and contrast the clipped videos for yourself.
RELATED: Clark’s sweet tribute to bf Connor McCaffery after winning Rookie of the Year
NBA social’s version (also the same on Instagram with a shared post with the WNBA)
Butler Bulldogs fan account version
It’s all in good fun, since Clark might actually ask the WNBA not to include photos and videos with her boyfriend to respect their privacy, and that’s totally fair. And as we’ve learned from Clark’s competitiveness, even on the golf course, you don’t want to mess with her.

70% Reduction in Vendor Onboarding Time, 40% Efficiency Gains in Security Reporting and Monitoring the External Attack Surface, and Decreasing Probability of Breach From Third-Party by 75% Drove a Payback Period of Less Than 6 Months
BOSTON, Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bitsight , the global leader in cyber risk management, today announced the results of the new
Total Economic ImpactTM of Bitsight , a commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting analyzing the cost, benefit, flexibility and factors affecting an investment decision. The research found that Bitsight's comprehensive External Attack Surface Management and Third Party Risk Management offerings reduced cyber risk, while delivering an investment return of 297% over three years. Additionally, the solution paid for itself in less than 6 months. The findings come on the heels of the The Forrester WaveTM: Cybersecurity Risk Ratings Platforms, Q2 2024
report, which named Bitsight as a Leader, receiving the highest score in the strategy category.
"The challenges facing risk and security leaders today are truly unprecedented," said Steve Harvey, CEO at Bitsight. "They are not only charged with protecting their organizations against a continuously evolving threat – both for their own organization and their third-parties - they need to do it in the face of rising costs and a pressure to prove value. We believe the results speak for themselves. We are innovating and partnering with these leaders to deliver real results. Results that matter."
The Total Economic ImpactTM of Bitsight is based on real-world interviews with risk and security leaders from existing Bitsight customers leveraging third-party risk management and external attack surface management solutions. The study creates a financial cost-benefit analysis for a
composite organization based on the findings.
Companies can calculate their own results through the Forrester custom calculator here .
Key findings from the study include:
Reduced risk of first- and third-party breaches
75% reduction in cyber breach risk across third-parties
45% reduction in cyber breach risk across first and third–parties
Efficiency gains for vendor risk management
70% reduction in time
onboarding vendors
30% reduction in time managing and monitoring third-parties
Productivity improvements for managing first-party cyber risk
20% reduction monitoring the external attack surface
Faster reporting through automation
40% reduction in time compliance reporting
Companies interviewed also noted that Bitsight delivered improved executive by-in for security initiatives, cybersecurity insurance cost savings and improved scalability:
"If you want a flexible solution for identifying, remediating, and managing risk that also reduces your internal resourcing needs and has demonstrable risk reduction benefits, then pick Bitsight." – Manager of Third-Party Risk, Medical Devices
"I can say for sure that seeing the external attack surface management tool in action instills confidence in my team and puts our mind right at ease," - Head of Information Security, Consulting
"There is a whole gamut of risk items that we can now do on a daily basis as opposed to worrying about tracking down a vendor who has not responded to our questionnaire." – Manager of Information Security, Industrial Services
Bitsight offers a unified platform for managing first-party and supply chain risk. Its External Attack Surface Management identifies and manages digital exposure, while Third-Party Risk Management streamlines the entire cyber risk lifecycle, from onboarding to continuous monitoring.

SAN FRANCISCO — A Navy parachutist was off-target and instead of landing where he should have, he landed on a mother and daughter during San Francisco’s Fleet Week.
The jump happened on Sunday at the city’s Marina Green, the designated target, SFGate reported.
But instead of hitting the spot where the sailor was supposed to land, he fell onto a group of spectators on the area’s perimeter.

Another Maple Leafs Forward Missing Time With Illness
The Toronto Maple Leafs were forced to play their home opener without former captain John Tavares in the lineup due to illness. While it was just one game and Tavares returned to practicing with his teammates, the Maple Leafs were recently without a different key forward.
Something must be going around the locker room because superstar William Nylander missed the most recent Maple Leafs’ practice due to illness.
Nylander is a huge piece of the Maple Leafs lineup and is currently the only player on the roster with multiple goals. Through the first three games, Nylander has scored twice and helped push the Maple Leafs to a 2-1 start.
In a full 82-game run in 2023-24, Nylander was the second-highest scoring player on the Maple Leafs. With 40 goals and 58 assists, he recorded 98 total points, behind only Auston Matthews (107).
The Maple Leafs had issues with illness running around their locker room last year. Multiple players missed time thanks to being sick and unable to play. They sure hope this isn’t a repeat thing as they’ll need all the help they can get to continue being one of the strongest lineups in the NHL.
Without Tavares for a game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Maple Leafs ended up winning by a score of 4-2. | https://www.si.com/onsi/breakaway/news-feed-page/toronto-maple-leafs-william-nylander-missing-time-illness | 2024-10-15T18:11:17Z |

Kalunga firefighters from the Prevfogo brigade hold leaf blowers at the Pantanal wetland in Corumbá, Brazil, September, 11, 2024. Thomson Reuters Foundation/Henrique Kawaminami
The Kalunga people have mastered wildfires in the Cerrado for generations. Now they fight blazes from the Amazon to the Pantanal
In the world’s largest tropical wetland, Brazil’s Pantanal, a group of Kalunga firefighters dig a firebreak line between the forest and the flames as they battle a wildfire spreading over the region.
The firefighters are descendants of enslaved Africans that first set up Brazil's "quilombo" settlements three centuries ago.
Brazil has suffered from a historic drought this year as South America increasingly struggles with the impact of climate change. The country had its largest burnt area of land in over a decade in the first nine months of 2024, according to government data, as the drought exacerbated human-started fires.
The Kalunga are recognised for their firefighting techniques, and Brazil's Ministry of Environment has been recruiting them since 2013 to work in the federal fire brigade Prevfogo during the dry season.
"We open this line to enclose the fire … so that it doesn't spread further," said Kalunga squad leader Roberto Francisco Maia, smoke rising from the ash-covered ground.
The firefighters are hired for six months every year and are paid between 1,412 reais ($253.06) and 5,280 reais a month, excluding benefits.
Equipped with leaf blowers, shovels, and machetes, some dig the clean line while others blow leaves and cut branches, using traditional methods that have been successful preserving their native, tropical savannah region, the Cerrado.
This has become an increasingly common sight in the Pantanal, which has lost about 81% of its water surface since 1985, according to data released in June by MapBiomas - a collaboration between universities, non-profit organisations and tech firms.
Kalunga firefighters have been deployed in several regions of Brazil and are beginning to work internationally, having been sent to Bolivia this year and Canada in 2023, said Prevfogo chief of operations Charles Pereira Pinto.
They have ample experience preventing fires in their own quilombo territory in Goiás state and are routinely called to train environmental officers, Indigenous communities and others around the country, researchers and firefighters from different regions have said.
Brazil's Indigenous people and natives from quilombo settlements make up about 70% of the country's 3,662 federal firefighters, according to the Ministry of Environment.
But it can be challenging to work on the firefighting frontline of a country still learning how to deal with drier and more flammable conditions. Firefighters are having to adapt, and the work can be dangerous, Maia said.
At a recent meeting in Prevfogo's headquarters in the Corumbá municipality, meteorologist Naiane Araújo Silva projected a map of the Pantanal -- it was covered in red.
"In red you have the areas with humidity below 30%, wind blowing above 30 kilometers per hour, and temperature over 30ºC," she told the Prevfogo officers, adding that these conditions were conducive to the spread of fires.
This type of dangerous combination has become more common in South America, making the Kalunga community's firefighting knowledge particularly valuable, said Ane Alencar, director of science at the IPAM environmental institute.
Pereira Pinto, who is a descendant of the Kalunga community, says their firefighting knowledge runs deep.
They have long used flames in the rainy season, when fire is less likely to spin out of control, to prepare land for agriculture. They have also traditionally burned river springs -- or set "prescribed fires" -- as a preventative measure to avoid future fire hazards, he said.
Pereira Pinto said authorities started to realise that these so-called "prescribed fires", once frowned upon by environmental officers, were essential to keep the Cerrado land protected from the risk of bigger fires in future.
"You couldn't just discard traditional knowledge," he said.
Thainan Bornato, the Prevfogo's deputy coordinator in Corumbá, said the fact that Kalunga firefighters were deployed more frequently across the country reflected their success in their home region.
The Kalunga only have the time to "be sent to other places because they have already made a lot of progress in protecting their own territory," she said.
But firefighters complain that the amount of time that they are deployed by the ministry has become inadequate because the fire season is becoming less predictable.
While they are only hired for six months of the year, the fire season has been lasting longer in recent years -- starting earlier and ending later than expected.
"Fire isn't something that happens only for six months anymore, it happens all the time," said Maia.
Kalunga firefighters say they should be hired for the whole year to allow them to execute more prescribed fires and adapt to the varied areas they are sent to.
As Kalunga firefighters get deployed across the country, another challenge is that they are having to work in new environments, which can be tricky.
Trees in their native Cerrado region are more fire resistant than those in the Amazon and in the Pantanal, for example.
"The difficulty for us here (in the Pantanal) is that we don't know the terrain that well," said Maia.
In some cases, they must cut burning trees down with chainsaws to prevent them from falling across firebreaks and spreading flames to still unburned areas.
Another difference is that abundant dead leaves and branches in the Pantanal and the Amazon form a thick, flammable layer decomposing on the ground, through which blazes can easily spread, often unseen from the surface. This makes it more difficult for firefighters to extinguish flames completely in this environment.
"In our land you are able to put the fire out directly, but here you have to use firebreaks," said Kalunga firefighter Guilherme Pereira Rodrigues, referring to the practice of digging out the organic layer until reaching the mineral ground to prevent flames from spreading under the surface.
"There is no other way", he said.
In the ash-heavy darkness, some carcará birds glide low as they search for prey amid the crackling sound of burning trees.
Firefighters have just spent an hour battling flames in an area of trees, and squad leader Maia climbs on top of the Prevfogo water truck to have a better look and make sure the blazes are out.
"The fire started again!", he shouts as he rushes towards the flames. "Gather everybody!"

In hidden cavities beneath the floor of the deep ocean, in the oases created by hydrothermal activity, whole communities of multicellular animals are living their best lives down in the darkness.
The discovery suggests a much more complex hydrothermal ecosystem than we knew about, at ocean depths shrouded in permanent darkness, where crushing pressure and intense cold create conditions deeply inhospitable to air-filled surface-dwelling humans.
"We were surprised because we did not know that there are cavities there," marine biologist Monika Bright of the University of Vienna told ScienceAlert.
"These cavities were described by geologists previously but they have not seen animals and us biologists did not know that the cavities are there but once we tried to collect the rocks so we can search for tubeworm larvae on the surface we broke into the cavities and discovered the animals."
At 2,515 meters (8,250 feet) below the ocean surface, the hydrothermal vent field of the East Pacific Rise is at depths difficult for humans to reach. But this volcanically active area of the seafloor is speckled with holes, through which heat and minerals seep, providing a chemosynthetic basis on which marine food webs proliferate.
Because these environments are so inhospitable, they are also hard to study, limiting our understanding of their nature. We have, however, been learning their secrets in recent years thanks to advances in remote-controlled technology that allows us to send equipment down to bathypelagic depths while remaining safely above the surface.
Bright and her colleagues conducted just such a mission on the research vessel Falkor (too), deploying the remotely-operated vehicle SuB-astian to study the life congregating around the East Pacific Rise vents, taking surveys and collecting samples. They did not expect that they would break through the seafloor to find cavities below.
These cavities were at depths around 10 centimeters (4 inches) below the seafloor, filled with water warmed by volcanic activity to temperatures around 25 degrees Celsius (77 degrees Fahrenheit), and at least 10 species were documented within them, including polychaete worms, sea snails, and the giant tube worm, Riftia pachyptila.
Some of the same species were also found on the surface, and in a lava crack, suggesting a connection between the seafloor, and the cavities below.
"The fact that live large tubeworms were found means that the hypothesis of larvae being able to colonize vents from below has been confirmed," Bright explained. "Some settle if conditions are right in the subsurface, some might with the vent flow be flushed out from the subsurface and colonize the surface."
The conditions in some of the cavities are also very similar to conditions around the vents on the seafloor surface, which could mean that the sub-surface communities are quite extensive. This could mean that the cavity communities may be the source of seafloor vent colonization after a volcanic eruption takes place.
It's not currently known how common these cavities are, or how extensive. But the discovery tells us that we need to be doing more to both understand and protect the animals living far beneath the waves from human activities such as deep-sea mining, the researchers say.
"We are currently thinking about how to do the next steps," Bright said, "for example, developing tools for ROVs to dig deeper into the crust to study the vertical extension and also to expand in the horizontal direction to look at other vent fields."

Global markets fell on Tuesday as investors scrutinised a spate of corporate earnings and eyed growing tensions in the Middle East.
Dublin
Euronext Dublin finished the day up 0.5 per cent mainly due to an outperformance in the airline sector as the price of oil dropped sharply.
Budget airline Ryanair was up 1.5 per cent, while Aer Lingus parent International Airlines Group climbed 4 per cent. Elsewhere, EasyJet and Air France were up 3 per cent and 4 per cent respectively.
It was also a good day for Dalata – the largest hotel group in the State – which closed up 3.5 per cent. The group hosted an investors’ day in London and also announced a share buyback.

Among the builders, Cairn Homes finished up 2.7 per cent, while Glenveagh Properties was up 1.3 per cent at close of business. A number of UK housebuilders were also up on the day, which one trader suggested was behind the moves in Dublin.
Meanwhile, the banks were the laggards on the index, with AIB and Bank of Ireland down 1 per cent and 15 basis points respectively.
Among the food names, sandwich-maker Greencore was up 3.8 per cent by close of business, while Kerry Group and Glanbia were each down marginally.
London
A 4.5 per cent drop in oil prices saw miners and energy firms drag the FTSE 100 down 0.52 per cent, after an influential outlook for global oil demand was lowered.
Miners Antofagasta, Glencore and Anglo American, and energy firms BP and Shell were among the biggest fallers of the day.
In company news, shares in De La Rue jumped after the bank note printer announced plans to sell its authentication arm. De La Rue put its divisions up for sale after a strategic review launched at the end of last year. Shares in the firm closed 14.4 per cent higher.
Elsewhere, shares in Bellway were also given a boost despite the housebuilder revealing that its profits tumbled by more than half over the past year as it grappled with slower demand in the housing market.
Nevertheless, the company said it expects to complete the sale of more homes this year as easing mortgage rates have started to support more demand. This more optimistic outlook appeared to have pleased investors and its share price was 8.3 per cent higher at close.
Europe
European stocks fell but remained in striking distance of their peak record levels as ASML posted third-quarter bookings that missed estimates and falling oil prices dragged energy stocks down.
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index was down 0.7 per cent. ASML tumbled 15 per cent, pulling technology stocks lower, after releasing earnings early. In Frankfurt, the Dax stock index was up 0.2 per cent, while the Cac in Paris was down 1 per cent.
Energy stocks were also among leading decliners after concerns eased about Israel attacking Iranian energy facilities. The sector’s index fell as much as 3.5 per cent.
Among individual stocks, Ericsson AB rose 11 per cent after its earnings beat analysts’ estimates in the third quarter, as the Swedish telecom equipment maker’s deal with US carrier AT&T began to pay off.
New York
US stocks turned lower as investors scrutinised a spate of corporate earnings while crude extended its slide due to easing supply worries and weakening demand.
After markets had closed in Europe, the S&P 500 was down about 0.5 per cent, while the Dow Jones was about 0.4 per cent lower.
Financial firms Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and Bank of America all posted better-than-expected profit, while healthcare companies UnitedHealth and Johnson & Johnson results underwhelmed investors.
Bank of America jumped 2.2 per cent following a third-quarter profit beat, while Charles Schwab soared 7.8 per cent after beating estimates. The broader Banks index was trading at its highest level in more than two years.
However, Citigroup slipped 1.5 per cent after its results, while Goldman Sachs dipped 0.4 per cent, both reversing premarket gains. – Additional reporting: Agencies

AITO, Lebanon — (AP) — An Israeli airstrike on an apartment building in northern Lebanon that killed at least 22 people needs to be independently investigated, the United Nations' human rights office said Tuesday.
“We have real concerns with respect to … the laws of war,” Jeremy Laurence, a spokesperson for the U.N.'s human rights office in Geneva said a day after the strike, as rescue workers searching through the rubble found more bodies and remains. Laurence said the U.N. had received credible reports that a dozen women and children were among the dead.
The Israeli military said it “struck a target belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization" and that it would look into reports of civilian deaths.
The apartment building hit in the airstrike was in the small village of Aito, in the country's Christian heartland and far from Hezbollah's main areas of influence in Lebanon's south and east. The strike was a shock to residents, and it exacerbated fears that Israel would expand its offensive deeper into Lebanon.
“I heard a loud noise, like a boom,” said Dany Alwan, who lives next door. “We ran outside, I saw the dust and the smoke and the rubble. There was a body here, another one there. It was a really ugly and painful scene.”
The three-story building had been rented out to the Hijazi family, which fled their home in the southern village of Aitaroun, according to Elie Alwan, Dany Alwan's brother and the building's owner. Some 1.2 million people have fled southern and eastern Lebanon, where the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah has been concentrated.
As rescue workers rummaged through the debris on Tuesday, they found the body of a child, and later a small leg and other remains that they put together in a white bag. The Lebanese military watched as a bulldozer cleared heaps of twisted steel, destroyed olive trees, and crushed rocks.
Over the past year, 2,350 people in Lebanon have been killed in Israeli airstrikes, according to the country's Health Ministry, which says roughly 25 percent have been women and children.
Earlier on Tuesday, the acting leader of Hezbollah said the militant group would fire rockets into more areas of Israel until it ceases its airstrikes and ends its ground invasion of Lebanon.
Naim Kassem said Hezbollah is focused on “hurting the enemy,” comments made in a pre-recorded televised speech delivered on the same day the United States said it sent a small team of troops to Israel to support an American-made missile-defense system.
Hezbollah has fired thousands of rockets into Israel over the past year in support of Hamas' war with Israel in Gaza. Tens of thousands of northern Israelis have been displaced from their homes by those attacks — and Israel has said its war with Hezbollah is aimed at stopping those rockets so families can return home.
On Tuesday, Kassem signaled that Hezbollah would ramp up attacks further south in Israel, which it has already done by targeting Tel Aviv and Haifa. Kassem has headed the militant group since Sept. 27, when its longtime leader, Hassan Nasrallah, was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike.
Hezbollah began targeting Israel with rockets on Oct. 8, 2023, a day after the Hamas attack on Israel that left 1,200 dead and 250 as hostages in Gaza.
Israel's ensuing war against Hamas has left more than 42,000 people dead in Gaza, according to local health officials. They do not differentiate between fighters and civilians, but have said a little more than half the dead are women and children. Hezbollah has insisted it will continue to target Israel until a cease-fire in Gaza is reached.
“We cannot separate Lebanon from Palestine, or Palestine from the world,” Kassem said.
Also on Tuesday, Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder announced the arrival of U.S. troops in Israel on Monday. The team will operate a Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense battery there to defend against ballistic missile attacks from Iran, which backs both Hezbollah and Hamas, and has launched two missile attacks on Israel.
“Over the coming days, additional U.S. military personnel and THAAD battery components will continue to arrive in Israel,” Ryder said.
Iran has warned U.S. troops would be in harm’s way if they launch another attack.
In Lebanon, Israel's bombardment and ground invasion have displaced more than 400,000 children in the past three weeks, according to Ted Chaiban, deputy executive director at UNICEF, the U.N. children's agency.

Australia's Pace Attack Faces Tough Test Against India
By Priscilla Jepchumba
The trio of Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood have been remarkably durable, but their workload could be stretched against face a challenge with the loss of all-rounder Cameron Green.
Cummins who missed England tour will prepare to lead Australia team in the ODI series against Pakistan, the trio will have to be fit for the test.
Australian cricketer Cameron Green will be out of action for at least six months due to back surgery. This means he'll miss the upcoming Test series against Sri Lanka, he will miss the India test.
Before his injury, Green had typically batted at number six. However, he had success at number four last summer, averaging 53.6. He attributed his success to his patience and ability to handle swinging balls, qualities also essential for opening the batting.
Green expressed comfort and confidence in batting at number four, stating that he could take his time and build the innings prior to the back injury that ruled him all summer.
“When required to play a role in test cricket it gives joy to be ready, on the sideline is time you realize how much it means to play and help the team,” Green added.
With several fringe bowlers recovering from injuries, the absence of Green, who was expected to play a significant role, further complicates matters. Mitchell Marsh might be called upon to fill Green's void, but his bowling fitness remains a concern.
Considering options like Aaron Hardie and Beau Webster in for Green is set to provide a similar balance to the team. The workload management of the frontline bowlers is crucial ahead of the India series, and Australia's management is taking steps to ensure they are well-prepared.
Australia pace depth is tested having recoveries of Scott Boland, Michael Neser whom will fully participate in India’s tie and Quick lance Morris will return by end month.
It's uncertain what role Green will play when he returns to the team. There are Test matches in the Caribbean next June and home Ashes series in 2025-2026. The top of the batting order might be his only option, depending on presence and the performance of other openers. | https://www.si.com/onsi/cricket/australia-s-pace-attack-faces-tough-test-against-india-01ja8ge5k71b | 2024-10-15T18:11:23Z |
Moldova’s LGBTQ+ people say EU referendum offers ‘hope’
Participants hold flags during a rally and concert celebrating the European Union's decision to open membership talks with Moldova, in Chisinau, Moldova, December 17, 2023. REUTERS/Vladislav Culiomza
What’s the context?
Activists are optimistic rights will improve if a vote to enshrine EU membership in the constitution passes
- Moldova holds referendum on joining the European Union
- LGBTQ+ people see referendum as chance to secure rights
- Russia accused of meddling, funding anti-EU sentiment
LONDON - Andrei, a gay 20-year-old law student, hopes this month's referendum to enshrine Moldova's European ambitions in the constitution will enable the ex-Soviet republic to "finally move into the 21st century" when it comes to LGBTQ+ rights.
"Everyone around me talks about the economic benefits of joining (the European Union), but honestly, I'm more excited about what could happen socially to Moldova if the 'yes' vote is successful," said Andrei, who asked that only his first name be used because of the sensitivity of the subject.
The referendum on whether to enshrine EU membership as a strategic goal in the constitution will take place on Oct. 20, alongside a presidential election in which pro-Western President Maia Sandu is seeking a second term.
For members of the LGBTQ+ community, the consequence of a “yes” vote goes far beyond free movement or the ability to work in any of the 27 EU member states without a permit.
"We see how other countries treat their LGBT populations, what rights they have and how they fight on their behalf. We don't all want to leave Moldova to live that reality - we shouldn't have to," Andrei told Context.
Located in eastern Europe and bordered by Romania to the west and Ukraine to the east, Moldova ranks poorly amongst other European nations for LGBTQ+ rights.
Whilst same-sex activity between consenting adults has been legal since 1995, same-sex unions are not recognised by the state. Households headed by same-sex couples do not have the same protections and rights as heterosexual couples.
According to a report last year by GenderDoc-M, Moldova's first nongovernmental organisation focused on LGBTQ+ rights, 79% of the population would not accept LGBT+ individuals as neighbours and 60% would not want to work with them.
Andrei, who lives in the capital Chișinău, says that homophobia is "practically everywhere."
"It hurts a lot not being able to be out and proud. I love Moldova, but I cannot continue to sacrifice who I am just to get by."
Although passage of the referendum does not necessarily secure greater rights for LGBTQ+ people, activists hope a commitment to EU membership will eventually lead to greater rights.
"It [the EU] is a powerful promoter of adherence to international commitments on human rights, and there is EU fundamental law that protects LGBTI people from discrimination," said Belinda Dear, a senior advocacy officer at the LGBTQ+ organisation ILGA-Europe.
More needs to be done
Since the breakup of the Soviet Union, Moldova, which has a Romanian-speaking majority and a large Russian-speaking minority, has alternated between pro-Western and pro-Russian courses.
The pro-Western camp has been firmly in charge since Sandu was elected in 2020 and her party won a majority in parliament the following year. Her government supports closer integration with the West including EU membership by 2030.
Moldova, along with Ukraine, applied for membership in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022. At the time, a report by the European Commission said that "societal discrimination continues" and that "more needs to be done to protect the rights of LGBTIQ persons".
According to a recent poll, around 63% of Moldova's 2.5 million people support joining the EU.
However, there are concerns Russian interference in both the referendum and the presidential vote could affect the outcome.
On Oct. 9, the European Parliament adopted a resolution condemning Russia's interference, saying Moldovan security services found that Russia had spent approximately 100 million euro ($109 million) to undermine the EU referendum. Moscow has denied any meddling.
"We see a lot of disinformation surrounding this referendum,” said Leo Zbancă, a programme coordinator at GenderDoc-M.
"There are political actors that don't want this to happen."
Painful choices
The stakes are also high for trans Moldovans.
Moldova is far from implementing progressive self-determination laws like Denmark, Spain or Belgium. People who want to change their gender identity must get an official medical diagnosis of “transsexuality” or “transsexualism” and their request must be recognised by the courts.
In January 2023, the commission responsible for issuing diagnostic certificates was disbanded, leaving trans Moldovans with no legal gender recognition procedure.
"In the last 14 years, we have been able to help 12 individuals change their names on their documents," Zbancă said.
"That number is so small. How many more transgender people are there in Moldova who cannot get their names changed? Imagine what they are going through."
The Moldovan health ministry did not respond to a request for comment on the status of the legal gender recognition procedure.
Zbancă said trans people often have to leave Moldova to undergo gender reassignment surgery or name changes. They cannot then return as their name would not match their original Moldovan documents.
"These are painful choices that people have to make."
LGBTQ+ Moldovans and activists know that even if the “yes” camp succeeds on Oct. 20 and Moldova subsequently joins the EU, progress on LGBTQ+ rights is not guaranteed.
Europe is becoming increasingly polarised over gay and transgender rights, as reports of hate crimes and harassment reach record levels across the continent, new research showed in May.
Bulgaria and Hungary have both passed laws to ban so-called LGBTQ+ propaganda, while similar bills have been introduced in Slovakia, Luxembourg and Romania.
"I see that the European Union is not perfect and that there is a lot of backlash from other countries, but at least the EU has a human rights framework in which we can work," Zbancă said.
Andrei described the referendum as a "symbolic vote".
"Joining [the EU] may not automatically guarantee us equal rights, but I do believe it will bring change to Moldova,” he said. “This referendum is my chance to bring change to Moldova – our community urgently needs it. It offers hope."

Government bodies will have to continue to accept both cash and electronic payments for goods, services or fines, under the new National Payments Plan unveiled by Minister for Finance Jack Chambers.
The report said that ministers will have to ensure that their departments and bodies under their aegis will be in a position by the end of next June to accept both at least one form of electronic payment and cash payments – or facilitate cash payments by a third party.
“Therefore, future contracts will not be able to include a ‘no cash’ clause,” it said.
However, it also highlighted that it is not possible for Ireland – or any individual member of the European Union (EU) – to introduce laws to provide for mandatory cash acceptance in a sector or subsector. The European Commission only has the ability to propose such legislation, it noted.
Higher inheritance tax threshold will not apply just because you have yet to get inheritance
Taking voluntary redundancy or getting laid off? You need to know about your tax, welfare and pension options
Can knowing tomorrow’s news make you rich? That’s not a foregone conclusion
Pensions: Uncertain times ahead of retiring workers
The strategy on general cash acceptance will be to inform all sectors of the economy, and specifically retailers and small and medium enterprises (SMEs), of future EU rules on cash acceptance, should EU legislation on legal tender be agreed, it said.
“The Irish payments landscape is very different today than 10 years when the previous iteration of this strategy was put in place,” said Mr Chambers.
“Consumers are increasingly turning to digital means of payment, be they card payments, or tapping to pay at retail outlets with smartphones or watches. There has also been much discussion around the decline in the use of cash for day-to-day payments and the need to protect this form of payment which remains the preferred form of payment for so many in our society, including older people.”
The Government has also promised to establish a cross sectoral anti-fraud forum consisting of online platforms, telecommunications firms and financial service providers to ensure the to combat fraudsters.
Banking Payments Federation of Ireland (BPFI), the industry lobby group, has agreed to apply to be certified by the Coimisiún na Meán as a so-called trusted flagger. If it is certified, it will have a privileged status for reporting illegal content such as false advertisements to online platform, according to the report.
The report said that all public bodies have been asked to put inbound-only phone numbers – such as helplines – on a “do not originate list” held by the Commission for Communications Regulation (ComReg). Telecoms operators will block calls that present as numbers from this list so they cannot be hijacked by fraudsters to deceive consumers.
The Department of Justice has also pledged to prepare legislation on a shared fraud database, as has been requested by the payments industry for some years, it said.

WASHINGTON — (AP) — The Biden administration has warned Israel that it must increase the amount of humanitarian aid it is allowing into Gaza within the next 30 days or it could risk losing access to U.S. weapons funding.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warned their Israeli counterparts in a letter dated Sunday that the changes must occur. The letter, which restates U.S. policy toward humanitarian aid and arms transfers, was sent amid deteriorating conditions in northern Gaza and an Israeli airstrike on a hospital tent site in central Gaza that killed at least four people and burned others.
A similar letter that Blinken sent to Israeli officials in April led to more humanitarian assistance getting to the Palestinian territory, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said Tuesday. But that has not lasted.
“In fact, it’s fallen by over 50% from where it was at its peak," Miller said. "So the secretary, along with Secretary Austin, thought it was appropriate to make clear to the government of Israel that there are changes that they need to make again, to see that the level of assistance making it into Gaza comes back up from the very, very low levels that it is at today.”
For Israel to continue qualifying for foreign military financing, the level of aid getting into Gaza must increase to at least 350 trucks a day, Israel must institute additional humanitarian pauses and provide increased security for humanitarian sites, Austin and Blinken said in their letter. They said Israel had 30 days to respond to the requirements.
"We are making clear to the government of Israel that there are these changes that need to be implemented, that we give them an appropriate period of time to implement it,” Miller said.
An Israeli official confirmed a letter had been delivered but did not discuss the contents. That official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss a diplomatic matter, confirmed the U.S. had raised "humanitarian concerns" and was putting pressure on Israel to speed up the flow of aid into Gaza.
The letter, which an Axios reporter posted a copy of online, was sent during a period of growing frustration in the administration that despite repeated and increasingly vocal requests to scale back offensive operations against Hamas, Israel's bombardment has led to unnecessary civilian deaths and risks plunging the region into a much wider war.
“We are particularly concerned that recent actions by the Israeli government, including halting commercial imports, denying or impeding 90 percent of humanitarian movements” and other restrictions have kept aid from flowing, Blinken and Austin said.
The Biden administration is increasing its calls for its ally and biggest recipient of U.S. military aid to ease the humanitarian crisis in Gaza while assuring that America's support for Israel is unwavering just before the U.S. presidential election in three weeks.
Funding for Israel has long carried weight in U.S. politics, and Biden said this month that "no administration has helped Israel more than I have."
Humanitarian aid groups fear that Israeli leaders may approve a plan to seal off humanitarian aid to northern Gaza in an attempt to starve out Hamas, which could trap hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who are unwilling or unable to leave their homes without food, water, medicine and fuel.
U.N. humanitarian officials said last week that aid entering Gaza is at its lowest level in months. About 80 trucks carrying aid have entered through crossings in Gaza’s north since Oct. 1, down from roughly 60 trucks a day previously, according to the U.N. website tracking deliveries.
COGAT, the Israeli body facilitating aid crossings into Gaza, denied that crossings to the north have been closed.
U.S. officials said the letter was sent to remind Israel of both its obligations under international humanitarian law and of the Biden administration’s legal obligation to ensure that the delivery of American humanitarian assistance should not be hindered, diverted or held up by a recipient of U.S. military aid.
Israel’s retaliatory offensive since the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks by Hamas has killed over 42,000 people in Gaza, according to the territory’s Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants in its count. The Hamas attacks that launched the war killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and militants abducted another 250.
The United States has spent a record of at least $17.9 billion on military aid to Israel since the war in Gaza began and led to escalating conflict around the Middle East, according to a report for Brown University's Costs of War project.
That aid has enabled Israel to purchase billions of dollars worth of munitions it has used in its operations against Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. However, many of those strikes also have killed civilians in both areas.

Indian Pacer Return In Jeopardy Due To Knee Injury Setback
By Priscilla Jepchumba
India's star pacer, Mohammed Shami, is facing uncertainty about his participation in the upcoming tour to Australia due to a knee injury, Despite being close to full fitness, Shami was ruled out of the ongoing Test series against New Zealand.
India's captain, Rohit Sharma, expressed concern about Shami's readiness for the Australian tour, stating that the team's priority is to ensure him his complete recover.
"To be honest, it's pretty difficult for us to make a call on him, whether he would be fit for this series or the Australia series. He recently had a setback, he had a swelling in his knee which was quite unusual. He had to start afresh. Right now,he is working with the physios and the doctors," Rohit Sharma said.
We want him to be 100 per cent fit, more than anything else. We don't want to bring an undercooked Shami to Australia. That's not going to be the right decision for us. He has not played cricket for a year, that's quite tough for a fast bowler to come back and be at his best.
With the Australian tour scheduled to begin in November, Rohit remains hopeful about Shami's participation. The Indian captain outlined a rehabilitation plan for Shami, which includes playing a few domestic matches before making a final decision on his availability for the tour.
Rohit acknowledged the challenges posed by the New Zealand; he emphasized the importance of focusing on the team's own performance rather than solely concentrating on the opposition
Shami has not played cricket since the ODI World Cup 2023, where he was in sensational form. Shami was forced to undergo ankle surgery after the tournament and has been rehabilitating at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru.
It is also expected that India will fast-track a few players for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy as well. India play their first match in Perth, which starts on November 22. The star fast bowler set to sidelined due to an injury and is undergoing rehabilitation.
Shami's absence would be a significant blow to the Indian team, who have enjoyed success in recent tours. However, India has been developing promising young fast bowlers like Akash Deep to fill the void. | https://www.si.com/onsi/cricket/indian-pacer-return-in-jeopardy-due-to-knee-injury-setback-01ja8hmnrpsc | 2024-10-15T18:11:30Z |

Service providers can inform stakeholders about the enduring advantages of investing in compliant waste management systems.

Developed nations implement stringent disposal restrictions, whereas emerging areas frequently lack comprehensive legislation, complicating the standardization of waste management methods for worldwide enterprises.

The victim's sister and fellow train operator says tree along NJ Transit River Line route has been an issue for years
MANSFIELD TWP., New Jersey -- The family of the New Jersey Transit operator who was killed in Monday's train accident plans to take legal action after the deadly incident.
The victim has been identified as Jessica Haley, a single mother of three boys from Levittown, Pennsylvania, according to Kila Baldwin, the attorney retained to represent the family.
"The family is understandably devastated and intends to pursue this matter to the fullest extent of the law to prevent anyone from ever suffering the same fate," Baldwin said in a statement on behalf of the family.
The victim's sister and fellow train operator, Rebecca Haley, says trees along the NJ Transit River Line route have been an issue for years, adding that "other trains had hit downed trees in recent years."
The accident happened just after 6 a.m. on Monday on the New Jersey River Line Light Rail track near US 130.
The train was traveling southbound from Trenton when it struck a tree just north of Roebling Station.
Haley was killed and 23 passengers were injured. The injured passengers are all expected to be okay.
In the statement, Baldwin said they intend to file a tort claims act (FTCA). An FTCA allows people to file claims against the federal government in cases, such as wrongful death.
Baldwin said they are filing the FTCA against New Jersey Transit, as well as several other entities, for "failure of the responsible parties to inspect these tracks and keep them clear."
ABC Philadelphia affiliate WPVI reached out to NJ Transit for comment but have not yet heard back.
"It is the duty of all companies who operate trains to ensure the tracks are clear for the safety of everyone on those trains, including the operators of the trains, like Ms. Haley," Baldwin said. "This never should have happened, and we will be investigating the case carefully to hold all responsible parties accountable."
The family attorney claims that at one point, trees that were allegedly deemed "dangerous" along the route were marked with an "X" but were never taken down. Baldwin also claims that there had been a landslide in the area near the crash recently and that a "small retaining wall" was built in a section to "prevent debris from falling on the track." However, Baldwin noted that the specific section where the accident occurred had "no protection."
New Jersey Transit Police are investigating. | https://abc7news.com/post/operator-killed-after-nj-transit-river-line-train-crashed-fallen-tree-mansfield-township-identified-single-mother-3/15431695/ | 2024-10-15T18:11:33Z |

Momentum investing is all about the idea of following a stock's recent trend, which can be in either direction. In the 'long' context, investors will essentially be "buying high, but hoping to sell even higher." And for investors following this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock's price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving in that direction. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.
Even though momentum is a popular stock characteristic, it can be tough to define. Debate surrounding which are the best and worst metrics to focus on is lengthy, but the Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us.
Below, we take a look at Carvana (CVNA), which currently has a Momentum Style Score of B. We also discuss some of the main drivers of the Momentum Style Score, like price change and earnings estimate revisions.
It's also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Carvana currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B outperform the market over the following one-month period.

Set to Beat the Market?
In order to see if CVNA is a promising momentum pick, let's examine some Momentum Style elements to see if this company holds up.
A good momentum benchmark for a stock is to look at its short-term price activity, as this can reflect both current interest and if buyers or sellers currently have the upper hand. It's also helpful to compare a security to its industry; this can show investors the best companies in a particular area.
For CVNA, shares are up 6.7% over the past week while the Zacks Internet - Commerce industry is down 0.7% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 23.67% compares favorably with the industry's 5.09% performance as well.
Considering longer term price metrics, like performance over the last three months or year, can be advantageous as well. Shares of Carvana have increased 46.71% over the past quarter, and have gained 446.35% in the last year. On the other hand, the S&P 500 has only moved 4.68% and 37.19%, respectively.
Investors should also take note of CVNA's average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. Right now, CVNA is averaging 3,099,724 shares for the last 20 days.
Earnings Outlook
The Zacks Momentum Style Score also takes into account trends in estimate revisions, in addition to price changes. Please note that estimate revision trends remain at the core of Zacks Rank as well. A nice path here can help show promise, and we have recently been seeing that with CVNA.
Over the past two months, 2 earnings estimates moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost CVNA's consensus estimate, increasing from $0.59 to $0.62 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 3 estimates have moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period.
Bottom Line
Given these factors, it shouldn't be surprising that CVNA is a #2 (Buy) stock and boasts a Momentum Score of B. If you're looking for a fresh pick that's set to soar in the near-term, make sure to keep Carvana on your short list.

MANCHESTER, England — (AP) — The rising number of injuries to top soccer players came at a cost of nearly $800 million to teams across Europe's leading leagues last season, according to a report published Tuesday.
At a time when there are growing concerns about the number of games players are being asked to play, the Men’s European Football Injury Index found there were 4,123 injuries in the top divisions of England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France in the 2023-24 campaign.
The cost of the injuries was based on the reported salaries of the players concerned and the amount of time they were sidelined for.
The report highlighted a greater strain on clubs as a result of the newly expanded Club World Cup, which will be staged in America next year.
The number of injuries has risen year-on-year since the index was first published in 2021 and the latest report said "it would be fair to expect a continuation of this upwards trajectory.
“The squad depth of clubs will continue to be tested, particularly with the impending introduction of the new FIFA Men’s Club World Cup in 2025.”
The index is produced by sports insurance firm Howden. Its publication comes a day after a players union and European leagues filed a formal complaint to the European Union against world governing body FIFA.
The 32-team Club World Cup — up from seven — has faced consistent pushback over concerns about player welfare since its new extended format was announced last year.
Last month Man City midfielder Rodri said players were close to going on strike in the face of increased demands on them — including an expanded Champions League this year. The Spain international suffered a season-ending knee injury days after those comments.
The football index has tracked a rise in injuries even before the expanded Club World Cup and Champions League.
It said there had been 14,292 — excluding COVID-19 — in the top five European leagues dating back to the 2020-21 season. That came at a cost of $2.5 billion based on the reported salaries.
Last season alone the figure was $798 million.
On average there was an injury every 92 minutes of football involving teams across those leagues.
It found that German teams suffered the most injuries per game (1.72). German teams also made up the top 13 places in terms of injury susceptibility and accounted for 15 of the top 20.
Of the teams least susceptible to injury, the top four were all from the French league.
The report said there was a “concerning trend” surrounding players under the age of 21, who were sustaining an increase of severe injuries.

How host of ‘America’s Got Talent’ Terry Crews Measures a Life Lived Well: The Power of Service to Others
When Terry Crews was asked how he would measure a life well-lived, he was momentarily shocked. However, it took him only a second to formulate an answer that reflects his core values and philosophy: "By how many people I've served." For Crews, success is not defined by personal accolades or material wealth, but by the number of lives, he has positively impacted. The accolades and material wealth only multiply his ability to impact people at scale.
A Mindset Shift: From Ownership to Service
In the past, Crews admitted to having an ownership mindset regarding his family. He viewed his role as a father and husband as one of control rather than support. But this perspective shifted over time, and he came to embrace the idea that his role was serving his family, helping each member achieve their goals and dreams. This shift, he explains, brought him immense joy and satisfaction far beyond anything he had experienced before.
Crews now approach life believing that being a leader means being a servant. "To be a leader, you must serve the most people," he says. This philosophy applies to his personal life and his professional career, where he sees his mission as helping others find joy and fulfillment.
Serving His Family: A Father's Mission
Crews speaks passionately about his role as a father and husband, saying that true happiness comes from helping his family achieve their dreams. "What do you want in life? It is Terry Crews' mission to ensure you get there," he says, referring to his family. For example, the pride he takes in his son's success is one of his greatest joys. His son, who is now living his dream on television, is a testament to Crews' belief that a father's role is to lift his children up, not dictate their path.
Rather than focusing on his ambitions, Crews has found that helping others reach their potential is the real reward. "It's better than if I got it," he explains, referring to the sense of fulfillment he gets from seeing his family, friends, and even fans achieve their dreams.
Expanding His Reach: A Mission to Serve the World
Crews’ mission of service extends far beyond his family. As the host of America’s Got Talent, he interacts with people from all walks of life who admire his work and look to him for inspiration. For Crews, this platform is another opportunity to serve others. When fans express their love for the show or him as a host, he feels his life's mission is being fulfilled.
"Serving the most people worldwide" is Crews's ultimate measure of success. Whether through his work in entertainment or his personal interactions with fans, he sees every opportunity as a chance to make someone else's life better. His dedication to this mission brings him true happiness and purpose.
The True Measure of Success
For Terry Crews, the key to living a life well-lived is simple: it's about service. Rather than accumulating personal achievements, he has found fulfillment in helping others achieve their goals. From his family to his fans, Crews' mission is clear: to serve as many people as possible and to measure his success by the number of lives he has positively impacted.
Crews offers a refreshing and humble perspective: true power and joy come from serving others. And for him, that is the ultimate measure of a life lived well. | https://www.si.com/onsi/everyday-warrior-nation/everyday-warrior-podcast/how-host-of-america-s-got-talent-terry-crews-measures-a-life-lived-well-the-power-of-service-to-others | 2024-10-15T18:11:36Z |
Global 3D Mapping and Modeling in Game Market Overview
Increasing Demand for Immersive Gaming Experiences
As players seek more engaging and realistic gaming experiences, the demand for high-quality 3D mapping and modeling has surged. Gamers are drawn to rich, detailed environments that provide a sense of immersion, encouraging developers to invest in advanced 3D technologies. The rise of open-world games and complex multiplayer environments has also heightened the need for accurate 3D mapping to create seamless and interactive spaces. This trend is driving game developers to focus on creating lifelike graphics that enhance player engagement, setting a new standard in the gaming industry.
Advancements in Graphics Processing and Hardware
Significant improvements in GPU technology and other hardware components have made it easier to render detailed 3D environments in real-time, a key factor fueling the growth of 3D mapping and modeling in gaming. These advancements allow developers to push the boundaries of visual realism, enabling smoother gameplay and more visually stunning landscapes. With better hardware, game developers can create highly detailed models without sacrificing performance, broadening the scope for innovation. This progress not only enhances the visual appeal of games but also encourages more developers to explore 3D modeling.
Rising Popularity of AR and VR Technologies
The growing adoption of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) in gaming has intensified the need for sophisticated 3D mapping and modeling. These technologies rely on 3D content to provide depth and interactivity, allowing players to fully immerse themselves in virtual worlds. As AR and VR experiences become more mainstream, developers are increasingly integrating 3D modeling to build compelling and realistic environments. This trend is accelerating the demand for advanced 3D tools, as companies strive to create immersive games that blur the line between the virtual and physical worlds.
To Purchase a Comprehensive Report Analysis:
High Development Costs and Time Requirements
Creating high-quality 3D mapping and modeling for games is often expensive and time-intensive, which can be a major barrier, particularly for small to mid-sized game developers. Developing detailed 3D environments requires specialized software, powerful hardware, and skilled personnel, all of which add to the production costs. This makes it challenging for smaller studios to compete with larger companies that have more resources, limiting innovation and market diversity. As a result, many developers may opt for simpler graphics or avoid 3D modeling altogether due to financial constraints.
Steep Learning Curve for 3D Modeling Tools
Another significant restraint is the complexity of 3D modeling software, which often requires specialized training and expertise. Many game development teams, especially those with limited budgets, struggle to hire or train staff proficient in these tools, which can slow down the development process. Moreover, mastering these tools takes time, which can delay project timelines and increase costs. This technical barrier prevents a broader range of developers from entering the 3D modeling space, restricting the market's overall growth potential and limiting the variety of games available.
Performance and Hardware Limitations
While advances in technology have enabled more sophisticated 3D modeling, many gamers still use devices with limited processing power. Running high-quality 3D environments can result in lag and poor performance on older or lower-end hardware, which can lead to a subpar gaming experience. Developers must often balance visual quality with performance, sometimes compromising on the level of detail to ensure smooth gameplay across a range of devices. This constraint limits how widely 3D modeling can be integrated into games, particularly for mobile and budget-conscious players, affecting the potential user base.
Geographic Dominance
The 3D mapping and modeling in the game market is primarily dominated by North America and Europe, where advanced gaming infrastructure and high consumer demand drive significant investment in 3D technology. North America, with its concentration of major game studios and tech companies, leads the market in innovation and technological advancements. Europe follows closely, with a robust gaming industry and support for cutting-edge graphics and immersive gaming experiences. Meanwhile, Asia is rapidly emerging as a major player due to its large gaming population, the prevalence of mobile gaming, and rising investment in 3D development. Africa, while still developing its gaming industry, is showing potential with growing interest and investments, particularly in mobile gaming, further diversifying the global market landscape.

Simmons started his international coaching career with Zimbabwe in 2004 and coached several other teams such as Ireland and Afghanistan

Bangladesh have appointed former West Indies batter Phil Simmons as coach of their men's national team, the country's cricket board (BCB) said on Tuesday.
Simmons has been handed a short-term contract until next year's Champions Trophy, the BCB added.
The 61-year-old replaces Chandika Hathurusingha, who was suspended on disciplinary grounds, ESPNCricinfo reported earlier on Tuesday.
"Hathurusingha has two counts of misconduct," the website quoted BCB president Faruque Ahmed as saying. "First is about an assault on a player. Secondly, he took too many leaves, more than what was in his contract."
The BCB did not confirm that Hathurusingha had been sacked, but said Simmons would arrive in Dhaka on Wednesday and help the team prepare for their upcoming home test series against South Africa.
"I have had the opportunity to speak to Phil Simmons and have listened to his cricket philosophy and ideas. His extensive coaching experience, vision and proven track record of success make him an ideal choice for this role," Ahmed said in the statement.
Hathurusingha, who coached Bangladesh from 2014-2017, returned for his second stint in January last year but Ahmed questioned BCB's decision to re-appoint the 56-year-old.
Ahmed took charge of the BCB in August following Nazmul Hasan Papon's resignation amid political upheaval in the country and said Hathurusingha should not continue as head coach.
Under Hathurusingha, Bangladesh failed to get past the group stage in the last two white-ball World Cups but registered a historic 2-0 test series win over Pakistan in September – their first overseas series victory in the format in 15 years.
However, India then whitewashed Bangladesh at home in a two-match test series and secured a clean sweep against captain Najmul Hossain Shanto's side in a three-match Twenty20 international series last week.
Simmons, who was in charge when West Indies became T20 world champions in 2016, started his international coaching career with Zimbabwe in 2004 and coached several other teams such as Ireland and Afghanistan.

Haason Reddick has been given permission to seek a trade, New York Jets owner Woody Johnson said at the NFL's fall meetings in Atlanta on Tuesday.
Reddick has not played this season while in a contract dispute with the Jets, who acquired him from Philadelphia in late March to boost their pass rusher. Instead, the star edge rusher has not been with the Jets since his trade was finalized and he passed his physical on April 1.
Drew Rosenhaus, who along with Ryan Matha now represents Reddick after the player recently switched agents, said Monday he was looking forward to getting the issues resolved as soon as possible. Rosenhaus attended New York's 23-20 loss to Buffalo on Monday night, presumably in part to meet with Jets officials.
“He would like to be a New York Jet for years to come,” Rosenhaus said hours before the game, "and our goal is to make that happen.”
Apparently, Reddick would really like to play elsewhere. When asked if the Jets had given him permission to look for a trade, Johnson said simply: "Yes."
During a conference call last Tuesday to discuss the firing of coach Robert Saleh, Johnson made a direct plea to Reddick to join the team.
The 30-year-old Reddick requested to be traded on Aug. 12, but general manager Joe Douglas quickly nixed that, saying New York would not grant his wish to be dealt. But it now appears it is heading that way, after all.
And it comes on the heels of the Jets agreeing to terms Tuesday, according to two people with knowledge of the situation, to acquire wide receiver Davante Adams from Las Vegas — reuniting him with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
Reddick was placed on the reserve/did not report list on July 25, the second day of the team's training camp practice.
Reddick accumulated around $5 million in fines for not attending mandatory workouts and training camp. He also is forfeiting a game check for each one he misses, which is an additional loss of nearly $5 million.
The Jets could explore their options with teams seeking pass rushing help, perhaps such as the Detroit Lions, who will be without star Aidan Hutchinson after he was lost for the season with a broken tibia and fibula.
Reddick was scheduled to make $14.25 million in nonguaranteed base salary in the final year of his contract, but he wanted a long-term extension from Philadelphia. When the Eagles declined to give him a new deal, Reddick asked for a trade and ended up in New York.

Jeff Gordon: Hendrick Motorsports 'Embarrassed' by Alex Bowman ROVAL DQ
Alex Bowman began the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs by having to dismiss an onslaught of rumors suggesting his seat would be otherwise occupied in 2025. Despite what seemed like a major distraction, the driver of the No. 48 has been rock-solid.
At least in that respect, nothing changed for Bowman in the Bank of America ROVAL 400, bringing home a solid top 20 result and winning the race’s second stage. At the time, that was more than enough to advance to the semi-final round of the post-season.
The jubilation felt by Alex Bowman and Hendrick Motorsports – who had just advanced four cars into the ‘Round of 8’ in the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs – quickly washed away once the team was informed by NASCAR that the Ally Financial Chevrolet was too light in post-race inspection.
Several people, including NASCAR, expected an appeal from the championship-winning organization, considering it was the only option remaining for Bowman to advance to the penultimate round of the Playoffs and take back the final spot, which was awarded to Joey Logano after the No. 48 was dropkicked to 38th.
On Monday, Hendrick Motorsports revealed that it wouldn’t appeal the disqualification, with a team statement revealing that after an investigation, it was found that there wasn’t enough of a buffer to meet the post-race weight requirement. Although unintentional, the team dictated that the infraction was indeed avoidable.
Jeff Gordon, Vice Chairman of Hendrick Motorsports, joined SiriusXM NASCAR Radio on Tuesday to discuss the disqualification and the team’s decision to not appeal.
“When we looked at all the factors, and you saw early on in the race the No. 48 launched up into the air and got into the wall,” said Gordon. “You just look at this race in general and the amount of contact – we wanted to really inspect the car wholly, to see if there was damage or was there something that got dislodged from the car.”
“NASCAR was great throughout the whole process, you can’t really inspect much of it at the racetrack, so we weren’t really sure, but they took it to the [NASCAR R&D] Center [on Monday] and looked at it thoroughly and examined it and didn’t find anything,” Gordon added.
An appeal, if requested by Hendrick Motorsports, would have had to be heard this week, prior to Sunday’s South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, which serves as the opening race in the ‘Round of 8’.
“It’s just one of those things where NASCAR has minimum pre-race and post-race weights and our teams, in order to make the best-performing racecars every weekend for our drivers, we know that we’ve got to stay as close to those minimums as possible, and in this case, the No. 48 car, they just cut it too close and missed it, so that’s on us.
"Pretty embarrassed by it, and pretty disappointing after what was looking like a historic day, and one of the most exciting days we've had."
- Jeff Gordon, Vice Chairman, HMS
Gordon says that this error, although unintentional, has triggered a series of meetings between competition officials Jeff Andrews, Chad Knaus, and the crew chiefs and car chiefs of each of the team’s four NASCAR Cup Series entries, to make sure things like this don’t continue happening.
“We know that teams push the tolerances, that’s what makes competitive race teams and we’re not alone, all the teams do this to stay as competitive as you can possible be every single weekend, and you have to look at all those processes and procedures to see how close we’re cutting it.
The most important thing going forward, according to the four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion turned executive at Hendrick Motorsports, is that the team’s entries remain in compliance throughout the closing weeks of the season, as Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, and William Byron fight for a NASCAR Cup Series championship.
Sadly, for Bowman and the entire No. 48 team, led by Blake Harris, that opportunity has been thwarted by Sunday’s post-race inspection woes, which has taken the Tucson, Arizona-native – who before the DQ had earned the most points through the first six races of the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs – out of the fight.
If there’s a silver lining in all of this, it’s that the No. 48 team has gotten on-track to be among the most competitive in NASCAR’s premier division, something that hasn’t gone unnoticed according to Gordon.
“There’s a multitude of factors that make it tough to swallow, but one of the keys is the performance of the No. 48 team, what Alex [Bowman] has done, the team has had a lot of pressure on them, they’ve been building that team up, building more depth, getting comfortable with one another, Alex being healthy this year. They go win at Chicago and get themselves in the Playoffs and performed at a high level throughout the playoffs. So you hate to take the momentum and opportunity away. I know they’re disappointed as well.”
"You can go gain a lot of points and get high up, and keep the momentum going and win races, and takethat into next season, and hopefully get next year started right." | https://www.si.com/onsi/racing-america/news/jeff-gordon-hendrick-motorsports-embarrassed-by-alex-bowman-roval-dq-01ja8e3z5g9t | 2024-10-15T18:11:42Z |

France and South Africa Clash Over Proposed 20-Minute Red Card Rule
By Priscilla Jepchumba
The French rugby authorities and players have opposed the 20-minute red card proposal from World Rugby because it could potentially harm players’ welfare and trigger more violent conduct in the game.
Fédération Française de Rugby (FFR), Ligue Nationale de Rugby (LNR), and players’ union Provale maintained that the red card remains effective as a disciplinary measure while citing a lack of evidence in trials to effect changes as players across the divisions produce sufficient reason in their testimony.
"For the FFR, LNR, and Provale, the red card is a crucial tool that deters unsporting behavior and protects the physical integrity of players," said the French rugby authorities.
"Transforming this sanction into a temporary expulsion could encourage dangerous behavior, thereby compromising player safety, which must remain the absolute priority," they added,
However, South Africa has not followed suit, as it has backed Australia and New Zealand in their support of the law. SA Rugby CEO Rian Oberholzer believes that it will enhance the excitement of the game and create more evenly matched competitions.
“SARU supports that (20-minute red). A red card spoils the match,” said Rian Oberholzer, the SA Rugby CEO.
“As a spectacle – when you have 14 play against 15 – as someone said, there is a three percent chance of the 14 winnings. I don’t think that is good for the game or the spectators,” Oberholzer added.
His statements reflect those made by Mark Robinson, CEO of New Zealand Rugby, who has consistently supported the implementation of the law amendment.
Currently, World Rugby officials have recommended the 20-minute red card as one measure to improve the viewing and playing experience for World Rugby. The rule would give teams an advantage if they could replace the player who was sent off after 20 minutes.
According to arguments from different countries, if the rule is used optimistically, it may enhance the game, but pessimistically, it will harm the players and the general character of the sport. | https://www.si.com/onsi/rugby/france-and-south-africa-clash-over-proposed-20-minute-red-card-rule-01ja8jfcekee | 2024-10-15T18:11:48Z |
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — (AP) — Joey Logano hoped he'd done enough to advance in NASCAR's playoffs with an eighth-place finish at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
But when he left the track Sunday night, he was four points below the cutline and eliminated from any shot at winning a third Cup Series title.
Then came the phone calls: inspection was taking a long time and there could be a problem with one of the playoff cars. All Logano could do was wait and wonder if there truly was something amiss with Alex Bowman's car and if it was egregious enough to push Logano into the round of eight.
“NASCAR, man. Expect the unexpected,” Logano said Tuesday. “You just roll with the punches and go with the flow and just continue on. I feel like these days, more and more, there are just crazy things that can happen. I just go with it."
Sure enough, Bowman's car was found to be underweight and he was disqualified. The penalty dropped Bowman in the standings, and as soon as Hendrick Motorsports declined Monday night to appeal, Logano was back in title contention.
“I was honestly surprised. I had heard rumors there was a delay in tech, some of those things going on. But usually nothing happens,” Logano said. “Would be in? That's the first question you have to ask. And then you are still cautiously optimistic, so you just keep going on with your life and prepare for the next race.”
That next race is Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where Logano is a three-time race winner and has started from the pole three different times.
Logano will race over the next three weeks Team Penske teammate and reigning Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney, the Hendrick Motorsports trio of William Byron, Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson, Joe Gibbs Racing drivers Christopher Bell and Denny Hamlin and Tyler Reddick of 23XI Racing for the four spots in the championship-deciding finale.
Should he emerge as the title winner at Phoenix Raceway in November, Logano will be the only active three-time Cup Series champion in NASCAR. Kyle Busch, who did not make the playoffs, is the only active driver alongside Logano with two titles.
Logano said his No. 22 Ford team will not make any changes to its approach as the team heads to Las Vegas, Homestead-Miami Speedway and Martinsville Speedway in Virginia vying for a spot in the finals.
“Same way if we made it any other way, you go out there and attack the positives,” Logano said. "I feel that we've been steadily getting better and improving throughout the season to where we are now. The speed we had at The Roval looked pretty solid to me, to where we are a championship-four caliber race team.
“The stats may not look like it. We may look like we're underdogs from the outside looking in, but internally we feel very confident in our race team that we can make a run at this thing and get us into the championship four," Logano continued. "And we've seen in the past where if you can get in there, anything can happen at Phoenix.”
It starts Sunday at Las Vegas, where Logano won the 2022 playoff race that pushed him to his second Cup title. Larson won last year's playoff race at Las Vegas, as well as the spring race there earlier this season.
But Logano likes his odds now that he's been given this second chance.
“We've done it before,” he said, “we can do it again.”

New Research Proves Employee-Centered Policies Boost Corporate Profitability and Valuation
Fortune 500 Companies with Equitable Practices Report 50% Higher Profit Margins and Growth
BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, October 15, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Future Forward Institute released today a research report, in collaboration with JUST Capital and the Burning Glass Institute with support from Walmart.org, showcasing a strong correlation between corporations that have employee-centered workplace policies with profitability, growth, and valuation. Led by Dr. Angela Jackson, founder of Future Forward Institute, researchers used her Win-Win Workplace Framework pillars when examining the workplace policies of 355 Fortune 500 companies. The research shows that companies with policies aligned with her framework rank higher in economic progress and growth than companies without such policies.
“This research validates what we've long believed: when businesses invest in employee-centered policies, they unlock tremendous potential for profitability and growth," said Dr. Angela Jackson. “The Win-Win Workplace framework focuses on strategies like centering employee voices, fostering mutualistic relationships, and reimagining benefits, all of which are integral to driving business success. These results provide clear evidence that when companies create environments where workers thrive, they simultaneously enhance their financial performance.”
The Win-Win Workplace framework’s 9 pillars include centering employee voices, mutualistic working relationships, intersectional inclusion strategies, reimagining employee benefits, frontline leader decision making strategies, hiring S.T.A.R.S versus prioritizing credentials, developing deep talent benches, human capital reporting as a competitive strategy, and distributed leadership-entrepreneurial structures.
Select key findings from the report include:
55% of companies that excel in fostering mutualistic working relationships also show strong valuation outcomes.
51% of firms with robust mutualistic working relationships achieve higher profits as a percentage of sales.
54% of companies that innovate in employee benefits report higher profit margins.
56% of companies that reimagine employee benefits demonstrate improved valuation performance.
Strong performance is defined as the top 25% of the 355 companies analyzed.
These results demonstrate that enacting policies to uplift employee voices and ensure worker thriving not only contributes to a positive work environment but also positively impacts a firm’s financial performance. Particularly promising is the fact that these practices led to a variety of positive outcomes: some showed up directly on a company’s balance sheet, while others – like reduced employee attrition – are the types of leading indicators that are likely to show up in improved financial outcomes down the line.
“In the 21st century knowledge economy, a firm’s success depends increasingly on the capabilities of its workforce,” said Matt Sigelman, President of the Burning Glass Institute. “That means that when workers rise, the firm’s workforce becomes more valuable. Companies that put talent first and invest in people position themselves for leadership in the future of work.”
“This research adds to the mounting evidence that business leaders who embrace fair workforce policies and expand opportunities for workers gain a competitive advantage,” said JUST Capital President Alison Omens. “Deepening support for your workforce, along with operational excellence, is a clear investment in company success.”

‘My report card of how I have done since June, is a solid B+. said the Indian talent who was born in Dubai

Rayhan Thomas, the Dubai-born golfer, continued his impressive professional journey as he advanced to Stage 2 of the PGA Tour Qualifying School after a strong performance in Nebraska.
Speaking with Khaleej Times during a brief stop in Dubai, Thomas reflected on his progress since turning pro in June and his upcoming schedule.
Thomas, who represents Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club and is a former Dubai Creek member, said: "I achieved my target for last week," Thomas said about Stage 1. "The weather was ideal for golf, and I hit a lot of fairways and greens in regulation."
Over 72 holes, he recorded 18 birdies, 45 pars, and only nine bogeys, showcasing his consistency and confidence throughout the tournament.
Thomas is now preparing for the next challenge – Stage 2 of the PGA Tour Qualifying School, with the final stage to be held at the prestigious TPC Sawgrass in Florida. Additionally, he will compete in Stage 2 of the DP World Tour Qualifying School in Spain later this month, followed by the six-round Final Stage in November.
Currently in Dubai, Thomas is training for his upcoming appearance in the $2 million International Series Thailand, held at Thai Country Club. "I’ll be here until the 20th of October, then I’ll head to Thailand with my mum, who’ll just watch me play this time," he shared. He plans to practice at The Els Club, Emirates Golf Club, and Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, where he is a member.
On completing his round, Thomas drove the 300-mile journey from Nebraska to Oklahoma to stay with his friend, world number eight Viktor Hovland (Nor), who also went to Oklahoma State University.
Thomas now advances to one of the five Second Stage qualifiers on the PGA Tour - all played by 6th December, with the Final 72-hole Stage of qualifying, to be held December 12th – 15th, at TPC Sawgrass, Florida over both the Dye’s Valley Course and at Sawgrass Country Club.
Thomas is also in the field for Stage Two of the DP World Tour Qualifying School in Spain, October 31st – 3rd November 2024, over four rounds, followed by the six-round Final Stage at Infinitum Golf in Spain, 8th – 13th November 2024.
“I am here in Dubai until 20th October – then I will fly with my mum – to play in Thailand,” said Thomas. “Mum will just watch me play and will not caddie or do anything else.
“This week, I will practice and prepare for Thailand – my sister is in town – she is normally in India, so it is great to have the family together.
“I will get some gym work in and now it seems a lot cooler in Dubai (or am I getting used to it?),” he added. “I plan to practice at, The Els Club, Emirates Golf Club and Dubai Creek.
“My report card of how I have done since turning professional on 1st June 2024 is a solid B+. I have got through two First stages of Q’School – won on the PGTI and had a top 10 on the Asian Tour.
“This is only the start – through playing University golf and seeing golf as a professional - I have always known the standard of golf required – so there is no complacency from my side.”

NCAA Women's Basketball Preview: Oklahoma Lands at #9
There is no offseason in women's basketball. As soon as the WNBA season ends, it is time for college hoops to tip off.
This upcoming season is hotly anticipated given the star power in the NCAA women's landscape. My father, Douglas Lundberg, took on a passion project of providing preseason rankings for the 2024-2025 campaign. Which I have prepared to unveil from 10-1, continuing with Oklahoma.
9. Oklahoma
Last year: 23-10, lost in 2nd round to Indiana 75-68
Key returnees: Skylar Vann/6-0/F/Sr; Payton Verhulst/6-1/G/Jr; Sahara Williams/5-10/F/So; Nevaeh Tot/5-3/G/Sr; Lexy Keys/5-7/G/Sr; Aubry Joens/5-9/5-9/Sr
Returning from injury: Liz Scott/6-2/F/Sr
Newcomers: Raegan Beers/6-4/C/Jr; Zya Vann/5-9/G/Fr; Caya Smith/6-0/W/Fr
The case for Oklahoma:
Last year the Sooners were experienced and tenacious, but undersized. This year they will still be experienced and tenacious. However, with the arrival of Raegan Beers, and the return of injured Liz Scott, the team will have more size.
They return all five starters including co-Big 12 Player of the Year Skylar Vann and All Big 12 Guard Payton Verhulst. Nevaeh Tot runs the point and is a leader on the floor. Raegan Beers is the real key to making a deep tournament run. Last year at Oregon State she averaged 17.5 ppg and 10 rpg while shooting 66% and was a third team All American.
Big 12 Coach of the Year Jennie Baranczyk is in her fourth year at Oklahoma and clearly has the Sooners on an upward trajectory. Her teams play with intensity and defend well.
What can go wrong:
Adjusting to the SEC: the move to the SEC represents a step up in competition against elite teams like South Carolina and LSU.
3-Point shooting: The Sooners were not a high percentage shooting team. Perhaps Beers' presence in the middle will result in more open looks. | https://www.si.com/onsi/womens-fastbreak/ncaaw/ncaa-women-s-basketball-preview-oklahoma-lands-at-9-01ja5zbdxrnf | 2024-10-15T18:11:54Z |
Jan Jensen Receives First Iowa Head Coach Commitment in Heartwarming Fashion
The women's basketball community was in collective shock when longtime Iowa Hawkeyes head coach Lisa Bluder announced her retirement from coaching after the Hawkeyes' 2023-24 season ended.
In Bluder's 24 years running Iowa's women's basketball team, she amassed a 528-254 record (making her the all-time winningest coach in program history), led the Hawkeyes to 22 postseason appearances (including 14 NCAA Tournament berths in the last 16 seasons), and took them to two consecutive National Championship games in the past two seasons.
While Bluder never secured that elusive National Championship trophy, the fact that she brought world-class recruits like Caitlin Clark, Kate Martin, and Megan Gustafson to Des Moines and developed her teams into perennial championship contenders cemented her legacy.
It also gave Jan Jensen — who became Iowa's new head coach after spending the past 24 years as Bluder's lead assistant — big shoes to fill.
Of course, a crucial part of a college program's success is getting recruits. And while Jansen was surely active in alluring past and current Hawkeyes to the team, she was never directly in charge of doing so.
Luckily Jansen recently got her first recruiting win as a head coach out of the way, as Iowa landed 6'5" center Layla Hays, who is ESPN's #68 prospect in the 2025 class.
Hays — who, per Iowa.rivals.com, "was considering offers from Big Ten rivals including Illinois, Indiana, and Nebraska, along with a bevy of other high-major programs," made an Instagram post on Monday that showed the moment she revealed to Jansen that she chose the Hawkeyes.
Jansen was clearly overcome with excitement and emotion about Hayes' decision. Hopefully, this heartwarming exchange will convince other top recruits that Jansen and Iowa could be the right home for them. | https://www.si.com/onsi/womens-fastbreak/news/jan-jensen-receives-first-iowa-head-coach-commitment-in-heartwarming-fashion-01ja8eqf9y91 | 2024-10-15T18:11:55Z |
Wayne "Akbar" Pray to Join the "I Am You Tour" and Launch Foundation for underserved youth and formerly incarcerated men
NEWARK, N.J., Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Wayne "Akbar" Pray was released from FCI Butner Federal Prison in North Carolina on September 30, 2024, after serving more than 36 years of a life sentence without the possibility of parole for a non-violent drug offense, thanks to the determined efforts of attorney Isaac Wright Jr and Peter Goldberger. On March 22, 2023, during the Newark, NJ premiere of the docuseries "848: The Criminalization of America", which documented Pray's story of wrongful conviction and is currently streaming on Amazon Prime. Isaac Wright Jr. boldly stated at the screening, "I'm going to bring Wayne home," a promise that has now been fulfilled.
Pray, was sentenced to natural life plus 50 years in prison on a CCE (Continuing Criminal Enterprise) for being a super drug kingpin of "The Family" a 300-member drug organization that headquartered in Newark, NJ during the 1970's and 1980's. The conviction was widely marked as one of New Jersey's most disproportionate and draconian drug offense sentences of all time. Pray, who had petitioned the judge over three and a half years ago to review his case, had his motion for compassionate release previously denied. However, with Wright Jr.'s legal acumen and dedication, the legal obstacles that once seemed insurmountable were overturned. This release marks the end of an arduous journey for Wayne, who has steadfastly prayed for a second chance.
Ironically, Wright Jr. first met Pray 36 years ago when he was given a life sentence plus 70 years at the age of 28 and then sent to maximum-security state penitentiary to life in prison. "If I didn't get life in prison Wayne Pray would have died in prison" stated Isaac Wright Jr. "Wayne Pray's perseverance and faith led him to find Wright Jr. whom he believed would overturn his life sentence despite the setbacks, it is an honor to see him finally reclaim his freedom after all these years." Stated Wright Jr.
Pray, now free, is set to join the "I Am You Tour" this fall as one of the featured speakers, alongside keynote speaker Isaac Wright. The tour aims to raise awareness of criminal justice reform, social justice and the power of redemption. As part of his journey, Pray, an author, columnist, and thought leader will share his personal experience and the lessons he has learned from his time behind bars.
In addition to his speaking engagements, Wayne "Akbar" Pray founded a non-profit foundation during his incarceration called The Akbar Pray Foundation For Change (APFFC) which focuses on supporting formerly incarcerated men and underserved children. The APFFC offers initiatives for drug prevention and intervention, mentorship to underserved children, re-entry programs for ex-cons, and advocate for change in the criminal justice system.

PHILADELPHIA — (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies signed manager Rob Thomson to a one-year contract extension through the 2026 season after he led the team to three straight trips to the playoffs.
The 61-year-old Thomson guided the Phillies to the 2022 World Series and the 2023 National League Championship Series and led them this season to their first NL East title since 2011. The Phillies were eliminated in four games by the New York Mets in the National League Division Series.
Thomson's .575 winning percentage is the best for any manager in franchise history. His contract was set to expire after the 2025 season.
“Year by year is good with me,” Thomson said Tuesday of the extension. “I've mentioned many times this is the only place I want to be. This will be my last stop.”
Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said the entire coaching staff — which includes polarizing hitting coach Kevin Long — will return next season, as well.
“Many managers will say it, but I truly believe we have the best coaching staff in baseball,” Thomson said.
Coming off a 95-67 season, Dombrowski made clear he was happy with the direction of the team under the manager affectionately known by his players as Topper.
“I think we have a good coaching staff, primarily,” Dombrowski said during Tuesday's announcement. “They do a very efficient job. They did lead us to 95 wins.”
Thomson has a 280-155 record since the veteran bench coach replaced Joe Girardi as Phillies manager on June 3, 2022.
Dombrowski said it was important for the team not to enter the 2026 season with a lame-duck manager.
“He's done a good job for us, been a very successful manager,” Dombrowski said. “There's been very few clubs in baseball that have made the postseason three years in a row. He has done that. We've been a very good club under his guidance. It's also one where I think stability in the manager's spot, I don't think going into the manager's last year is ever good situation to be in, if you can prevent that from happening.

Luka Modric Set to Break 58-Year Real Madrid Record Against Celta Vigo
Luka Modrić will replace Ferenc Puskás' name in Real Madrid's history books come Saturday's match against Celta Vigo.
At 39 years and 40 days old, the Real Madrid captain will officially become the club's oldest player to appear in any competition. All the Ballon d'Or winner needs to do is feature in Los Blancos' upcoming La Liga fixture to break the 58-year record held by Puskás.
The Hungarian was 39 years and 36 days old when he earned his final cap for Real Madrid on May 8, 1996, in a Copa del Generalisimo (now the Copa del Rey) match against Real Betis. He went on to retire from soccer after scoring 242 goals in 262 appearances for the Spanish giants.
Unlike the Real Madrid legend, Modrić has no plans to hang up his boots. In fact, even at 39 years old, the Croatian still logs heavy minutes for both club and country. He has featured in Real Madrid's first 12 matches of the 2024–25 season, playing 561 minutes across all competitions, and recently logged 90 minutes against Scotland during the October international break.
In the aftermath of Toni Kroos' retirement, Modrić's presence in Real Madrid's midfield brings much-needed experience and creativity to Carlo Ancelotti's side. Without Modrić, the average age of Los Blancos' starting midfield is 23 years old. At times already this season, Jude Bellingham, Eduardo Camavinga, Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni have lacked vision and leadership, something Modrić provides 10 times over.
The Croatian could earn his seventh Champions League trophy if Real Madrid successfully defends its European title this season. Then, Modrić will add another record to his list of accomplishments, one that has nothing to do with his age but all to do with his skill. | https://www.si.com/soccer/luka-modric-set-to-break-58-year-real-madrid-record-against-celta-vigo | 2024-10-15T18:12:01Z |

Completed in June 2024, the Tom Delfim Moreira luxury apartment complex welcomed its first homeowners to the unique "art building / gallery" in Leblon (Rio de Janeiro), Brazil. PENETRON ADMIX, a crystalline waterproofing admixture, was specified to protect the building's below-grade concrete structures from the corrosive marine environment.
EAST SETAUKET, N.Y., Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Completed in June 2024, the Tom Delfim Moreira luxury apartment complex welcomed its first homeowners to the unique "art building / gallery" in Leblon (Rio de Janeiro), Brazil. PENETRON ADMIX, a crystalline waterproofing admixture, was specified to protect the building's below-grade concrete structures from the corrosive marine environment.
One of the most affluent neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Leblon (population ca. 46,000) is well-known for its beautiful beach – making it a popular surfing destination – as well as charming historical architecture, top-notch restaurants, and a pulsating nightlife.
Designed by the Californian architectural firm Gensler Architecture, the Tom Delfim Moreira Apartments in Leblon is Rio's first "art building / gallery" featuring works by contemporary artists such as Lole de Freitas, Ernesto Neto, Vik Muniz and Irmãos Campana. The exclusive 7-floor complex houses 6 luxury units – one per floor – facing Leblon Beach and the Atlantic Ocean just across the Avenida Delfim Moreira. The spacious floor plans for each unit (283-500 m2 / 3,113-5,500 ft2) integrate 4-5 bedrooms, a state-of-the-art kitchen, bullet-proof front door, and a spacious balcony. Amenities include a lobby floor art gallery, business meeting area with kitchenette and bar, fitness gym with changing rooms, parking garage, bike garage, and a 24-hour doorman.
"Because of the challenging coastal environment, construction of the Tom Delfim Moreira building used top-quality materials and technology to ensure the longevity and durability of the residential structure," says Cláudio Neves Ourives, CEO and Managing Partner of Penetron Brazil. "One of the key components used to ensure durability was PENETRON ADMIX, a crystalline waterproofing admixture added to the concrete mix to enhance the impermeability and durability of concrete exposed to saltwater and high groundwater."
PENETRON ADMIX was added to the concrete mix by Supermix, the ready-mix concrete supplier, for the basement slab and below-grade retaining walls of the apartment building. PENEBAR SW-55 swellable waterstop strips sealed the construction joints, providing integral waterproofing to protect the structure from water ingress and the resulting corrosion.
Once exposed to any moisture, the active ingredients in PENETRON ADMIX generate a non-soluble crystalline formation throughout the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete to permanently seal the microcracks, pores, and capillaries against the penetration of water or liquids from any direction. This formation provides long-term protection for concrete from corrosion caused by chloride ion penetration, even in the marine environmental conditions of the Leblon construction site.
"An added benefit of integral and structural waterproofing products – like the Penetron System – is the ease of use and total reliability," adds Cláudio Neves Ourives. "The concrete pours were completed on time and on budget."
The Penetron Group is a leading manufacturer of specialty construction products for concrete waterproofing, concrete repairs and floor preparation systems. The Group operates through a global network, offering support to the design and construction community through its regional offices, representatives, and distribution channels.

PITTSBURGH — (AP) — Russell Wilson's time may be fast approaching in Pittsburgh.
Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Wilson is "in consideration" to be the starting quarterback when the Steelers (4-2) host the New York Jets (2-4) on Sunday night. The 35-year-old nine-time Pro Bowler has spent the past six weeks recovering from a calf injury he aggravated a couple of days before the season opener.
While Tomlin stressed that Justin Fields "has been really good" while filling in for Wilson and the team has "been really good at times," the NFL's longest-tenured coach added that good was "not to be confused with great."
Enter Wilson, who won the starting job at the end of training camp before tweaking the calf less than 72 hours before a Week 1 visit to Atlanta. Tomlin saw enough of Wilson in practice last week to have him serve as the backup behind Fields during a 32-13 win in Las Vegas, and there's a very real chance they could swap roles against the Jets.
“This is a competitive league, man,” Tomlin said. “We’re trying to position ourselves to be that team. And we got a player with talent who hadn’t had an opportunity to play. So we’re going to potentially explore those things.”
Fields has been efficient and occasionally spectacular during his six-week audition. He's also largely avoided the kinds of mistakes that were a common thread during his three years in Chicago, throwing just one interception in 160 attempts. His accuracy, however, had dipped of late. Fields has completed just 57% (29 of 51) of his passes over his past eight quarters, down from 69% (77 of 111) across the opening month of the season.
The Steelers are also 28th in passing and 20th in scoring, riding a soft(ish) early season schedule and a disruptive defense led by All-Pro linebacker T.J. Watt to a tie atop the AFC North with rival Baltimore. After a pair of home primetime games against the New York City area teams — the Jets on Sunday, the Giants on Oct. 28 — the sledding figures to get far heavier once the calendar flips to November and Wilson's resume may be too tantalizing for Tomlin to pass up.
Tomlin cautioned that the decision to give Wilson reps with the first team in practice this week has more to do with Wilson's experience and his resume than Fields' performance.
“Justin has been an asset to us," Tomlin said.
Just not enough of one for Tomlin to definitively hand the starting job to Fields outright. Tomlin declined to get into specifics on how he will divide the practice snaps with the first team and doesn't expect to make a decision on who will start against the Jets until later in the week.
"We’re just going to roll the ball out, let both guys work and make decisions from there," Tomlin said.
Fields' play has allowed the Steelers to bring Wilson — who turns 36 next month — along slowly. Wilson initially injured the calf when the team reported to training camp in July and there was a concern when he aggravated it that it could lead to something more serious.
Wilson has steadily improved and showed Tomlin last week that he could protect himself in practice. The next step will be knocking off whatever rust might remain from a month-plus of relative inactivity, though Tomlin doesn't sound overly concerned.
Whoever the quarterback is will likely be playing behind a seventh different offensive line combination in as many weeks with rookie center Zach Frazier out with an ankle injury sustained against the Raiders. Fields' mobility — he's already run for five touchdowns — has helped offset the constant churn in front of him. That's not a tool that Wilson has had since the height of his “Let Russ Cook” days with Seattle several years ago.
Asked how the offense might change with Wilson behind center, Tomlin smiled and said “it remains to be seen. And I think that’s one of the cute things about this discussion.”
NOTES: LB Nick Herbig (hamstring) will miss his second straight game. ... There's a chance OLB Alex Highsmith (groin), out since a win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 22, could return. ... RB Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) may also be available after missing two games.

A Ghanaian prophet has found instant fame after it came to light that in 2023, he prophesied doom for Bishop Elisha Salifu Amoako and his ministry.
Festus Kobena Assan took to Facebook on September 15, 2023, to open up about the bad vision he had concerning Salifu Amoako, hence the need to pray for him.
"Bishop Salifu Amoako Atta and I saw an attack of shame and disgrace against yourself and ministry..I pray the Lord takes you and ministry out by fire the lion with God's eyes I sees from far" the 2023 post read.
Following news that the son of Salifu Amoako had been involved in a car crash which claimed the lives of two individuals, Prophet Festus took to Facebook once again to remind Ghanaians of the vision he had a year ago.
He recounted how people criticized him for prophesying doom about the revered man of God.
"When I saw the attack and posted it, musician Nero x came to comment I only see bad about people see let me tell u people something am the lord spirit and what the devil has plan towards God's children's is what God reveals to me so his children's can be watchful in prayers now Bishop son hard accident yesterday and kills 2 people am the lord Prophetic Lion. on the gate of JUDA with God's eyes I sees from far exactly 1 year now careful with the revelation of God from me .prayers with u Bishop and family."
At the time of writing the report, the post had raked in over 36 likes and 29 comments.
Ghanaians react to the prophesy
Social media users who commented on the post commended the prophet for foreseeing the car crash and letting the world know.
Timegh2 indicated:
"Festus Kobena Assan Godbless you for your anointing,can i get your number please."
Kofi Adjei Yirenkyi indicated:
"The devil steps in to ensure these plans never manifest and that's why men of God mostly see the bad because that's God's way of delivering His people. Keep up the good works Festus Kobena Assan."
Vinicius Maestro replied:
"Prophetic lion,sees everywhere."
Lawyer speaks on Salifu's Amoako son
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Yudah Brown, a Ghanaian lawyer, had reacted to the East Legon accident, which was reportedly caused by Salifu's Amoako son.
Yudah Brown explained that blame can be shifted from the child to the parent, and the family of the victims can also sue the Salifu Amoako family for 'loss of life expectancy.
Many have called for Erald’s arrest and subsequent prosecution, but according to Yudah Brown, the law favours and treats minors differently.

The UAE’s Jonathan Selvaraj shot an opening round of two-under-par 70, placing him in a tie for third in the Asia-Pacific Golf Confederation’s (APGC) Nomura Cup this week at Vinpearl Golf Hai Phong in Hai Phong, Vietnam.
Selvaraj, 20 years old and the winner of the 2023-24 Emirates Golf Federation’s (EGF) Men’s Order of Merit, told Khaleej Times following his round, “The golf course was challenging. Tight fairways, tucked pins, and blowing winds create a tough combination to handle.
"I played decently; ball striking was a strong point, and dispersion was well managed. That being said, I missed many putts, and today could have been much lower. I’m looking forward to the rest of the week.
“It’s an honor to represent the UAE in international tournaments, and I look forward to doing that to the best of my ability in the coming days," Selvaraj added.
Starting on hole 10 in a two-tee start, Selvaraj was three under par after seven holes. He bogeyed hole nine to finish the front nine at 34.
On the back nine, he had a birdie-bogey run on holes 5 and 6, finishing level par with a 36.
The Nomura Cup, also known as the APGC Team Championship, is a biennial amateur team golf championship for men.
The UAE is currently in ninth place in the Team Division, with 36 holes remaining in this best-two-from-three format each day. Saudi Arabia is in 16th place.
The other players on the UAE team are Ahmad Skaik and Sam Mullane.
China currently leads the Team Division at two under par after round one, with the hosts, Vietnam, just one shot back in second place.
This year, the Nomura Cup is being played at the Vinpearl Golf Hai Phong – Marsh Course. Playing at 7,508 yards and par 72, the Marsh Course is known for its challenging natural marshy terrain. Five out of the final six holes feature water hazards, which will make the finish a true test.
The competing countries are Australia, China, Chinese Taipei, Guam, Hong Kong (China), India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, New Zealand, Pakistan, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Thailand, the UAE, and hosts Vietnam.

Black Ops 6 And Two More Call Of Duty Games Are Headed To Xbox Cloud Gaming
It's been rumored for some time now, but we finally have official confirmation that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be available on Xbox Cloud Gaming upon release. From 10 am PT on October 25th, you will be able to play Black Ops 6 alongside both Modern Warfare III and Warzone titles. This is an positive announcement for Call of Duty fans and something we weren't quite sure would happen.
We've seen the leaks, and we've seen the PC requirements, and in a few more days gamers will be able to jump into the action. While we fully expect Black Ops 6 to be the main COD game being played on the 25th, odds are that both Modern Warfare III and Warzone will also see a boost in players once the initial launch period cools down.
Gamers looking to take advantage of this development will need an Ultimate Subscription to Xbox Game Pass, as these new COD titles will not be available on the core plan. The Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription is available to users on consoles, PC, mobile phones, select Samsung TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Meta Quest devices allowing for more gamers to enjoy their favorite games across a range of devices.
Ashley McKissick, corporate vice president of gaming experiences and platforms, had this to say "This is a first for the Call of Duty franchise, and a win for the community." As the prices for AAA games reaching ever higher levels, this be the beginning of plans to encourage more gamers to move towards monthly subscription-based options to purchase/play their games.
Microsoft is going all in on its Xbox Cloud Gaming. Letting Ultimate Subscription members play Black Ops 6 on release is just one of the many new features coming to the service. Another one of the big features coming soon is the ability to stream the games you already own that aren't on the Xbox Game Pass Library. Both of these updates are major advances and drive home the fact that Microsoft is going all in on cloud gaming.

Regional drivers may feel intimidated by the presence of large trucks on the roads. Large machines are the kings of the highways, demanding more space, time, and attention from other motorists.
The sheer size of a truck itself can cause specific problems on the road, from blind spots to longer stopping distances, against which other cars must adjust. Minor errors near the trucks could lead to dangerous or fatal accidents. The key safety tips are the only solution to protecting you and your passengers.
In the following blog post, you’ll understand five major tips that every driver should know while commuting near large trucks.
- Stay Out of Blind Spots
Large trucks have much larger blind spots compared to passenger vehicles. The general rule is that if you can’t see the truck’s mirrors, the driver likely can’t see you. Avoid lingering in these blind spots, particularly at their sides, directly behind, and immediately in front of the truck.
Be very alert whenever you overtake or drive close by a truck, and ensure adequate space. Sudden movements on the blind side of a truck may lead to an accident. By keeping these invisible zones in mind, you will avoid the danger of a dangerous accident.
- Keep a Safe Distance
Large trucks must allow more time for a complete stop because of their size and weight. It is important to always drive safely from the car before you since the stopping distances become even longer in poor weather. Following too closely behind a truck is especially dangerous to make it easy to react if the truck driver suddenly hits the brakes.
Also, do not cut off a truck when merging into lanes or exiting. Trucks are loaded with so much momentum and cannot stop instantly. The impact of cutting in front of them without space can result in rear-end collisions that often badly damage the smaller vehicles.
- Be Aware of Legal Repercussions
Accidents involving large trucks involve complex legal problems, particularly when determining fault. If you ever find yourself involved in a truck accident, it is important to understand how fault will be retained in your state.
For example, fault in truck accidents, in the case of Indiana, is a certain process. You could use legal resources, such as those from Vaughan & Vaughan, an experienced truck accident law firm, to understand the dynamics. The legal aspects of truck accidents allow you to be better protected on the road. Being aware of these rules allows drivers to be best prepared to face post-recovery consequences when it happens.
- Use Proper Passing Techniques
When passing a large truck, signal well in advance. Take your time and avoid being alongside for too much time. Because of the larger blind spot on the right, always pass to the left. Accelerate to maintain consistent speed when you are in front of the truck. Ensure you can see all the trucks in your rearview mirror before merging into the lane.
The unsafe or too-fast passing process can only make them jump into something or avoid reacting to road changes. Always be careful and only pass when it is legal and safe, with you and the truck driver both reasonably aware of what’s occurring.
- Anticipate Wide Turns
Trucks require more space to make turns, and many vehicles swing wide into adjacent lanes to make right-hand turns. Pay close attention to truck signals and give them room to make their turns without placing yourself in harm’s way.
Never attempt to squeeze between a turning truck and the curb. You either get squeezed or sideswiped. Always stay back and be patient when a truck is making its turn, as the driver may not see you trying to work your way around.
Endnote
Safety around big trucks needs patience, awareness, and adjustment to their peculiar driving characteristics. By following proper tips, regional drivers can minimize risks significantly and expect smoother and safer commutes. Know also the input of legal experts in the unfortunate event of an accident. | https://signalscv.com/2024/10/5-essential-safety-tips-for-regional-drivers-around-large-trucks/ | 2024-10-15T18:12:02Z |
(MENAFN- PR Newswire)
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
A new national survey, The WELLS urveyTM, examined the evolving landscape of the U.S. health and wellness market. The findings reflect the attitudes and aspirations of over 88 million households, underscore the prevalence of healthier living behaviors, and reveal the nuanced interests of four distinctive market segments. They also reveal a resilient consumer who is optimistic about the future and cites family as their greatest source of joy but concerned about the direction of the country.
Continue Reading
Civano Advisory Services releases The WELLSurveyTM, which examines the evolving landscape of the U.S. health and wellness market.
The results of the new survey provide compelling evidence of cultural acceptance of health and wellness practices in American society: over 60% of households use one or more spa, alternative medical practices,
or healing therapies on a regular basis. As this movement grows, providers must adapt their products, services, and experiences to align with consumers' perceptions of, and interest in, the concepts of "wellness" versus "wellbeing." They must also craft communications differently to engage adults' emerging attitudes, beliefs, and social values.
Key insights revealed in the WELLS urvey include:
Market Confusion:
Other than the health sciences, the health and wellness industry has grown in a decentralized manner resulting in a lack of consensus on essential standards, performance metrics, and terminology. This has led to market confusion about the concepts of "wellness" and "wellbeing." It has also obstructed providers' efforts to make or substantiate claims about the benefits of each.
Wellness vs .
Wellbeing:
A key word association test of 18 possible descriptors revealed the perception of
wellness is based on objective, measurable activities and functions that enhance healthier living, such as REM sleep, HVR, heart rate, oxygen intake, cholesterol, blood pressure, and mental acuity.
Wellbeing, however, is described in more subjective, aspirational, relational terms that include emotional health and a spiritual component. It is also associated more closely with longevity. The descriptors associated primarily with wellness are "physical strength," "energy," and "vitality." The descriptors associated primarily with wellbeing are "peacefulness," "joyfulness," and "spirituality." Both concepts share common components, but
WELLS urvey data suggest they appeal to individuals with different attitudinal, behavioral, and belief profiles.
Market Segmentation:
Cluster analysis of 84 attitudinal, behavioral, and belief statements revealed the existence of four distinctive market segments, each with a unique profile. The key behavioral or demographic criterion for each is provided below:
WELL Fanatics – adults who exercise seven hours or more weekly (16M households).
WELL Searchers – adults who use spa, alternative medical practices, or healing therapies on a regular basis (53M households).
WELL Trackers – adults who use a wearable to track their health metrics (27M households).
WELL Zoomers
– adults 25-34 years of age (16M households).
Younger Adults More Focused on Wellbeing: Adults between 25-34 years of age have a 30% higher interest in spa and wellness products, use health data technology 26% more often, are 16% more likely to believe "joy" is a defining element of their wellbeing, yet feel 46% more anxious than older adults.
Key Drivers of Wellness and Wellbeing: The three key "drivers" of both wellness and wellbeing are: physical strength, mental health, and emotional health. Yet, "financial security" is an additional driver of wellness, while "spirituality" in an additional driver of wellbeing. These insights confirm that even though adults have difficulty articulating definitions for both wellness and wellbeing, they perceive the concepts as derivatives of different combinations of physical and psychological forces. This is a very important revelation. The
WELLS urvey also revealed there are more adults interested in enhancing their wellbeing than their wellness.
Science and Technology Matters: The majority of respondents (53%) look to evidence-based science to guide their lifestyle choices, and 31% use technology to track their health and lifestyle data. Technology usage, a growing trend, is highest among
WELL Trackers,
"The health and wellness market is well established, but product and service clarity is still opaque. Navigating this evolving marketplace, further integrating data, technology, and health science into experiential programs and services, will require multiple
skillsets, clear standards, and shared metrics to differentiate competitive products and services and drive price premiums," said Kevin Kelly, CEO of Civano Advisory Services, and co-author of the survey. "The insights from the WELLS urvey underscore the importance of understanding consumer behavior in a rapidly evolving market, urging health and wellness providers to adapt and innovate to meet emerging preferences and establish themselves as true leaders in an increasingly crowded field."
"Consumers' greater focus on the pursuit of healthier lifestyles, guided by the competitive value of comprehensive customer data, creates a significant economic opportunity," added co-author Peter Yesawich, Ph.D., co-founder and former Vice Chairman of MMGY Global. "Yet, this opportunity is likely to benefit only providers who evolve their products, services, and experiences to reflect the preferences of distinctive market segments."
Methodology
National probability survey of 1,002 U.S. adults, 25 to 74 years of age, and reside in the top half of US households defined by annual income (>$75,000 in 2023).
Field work conducted online during January and February of 2024.
Survey instrument included 84 attitudinal, behavioral, belief and lifestyle variables.
Respondent profile:
Median age: 48.6 years.
52% female, 48% male.
Median household income: $127,500.
69% employed full-time, 19% retired.
84% live in a single-family home, 68% with children living at home.
59% suburban, 21% urban and 20% rural/semi-rural residence.

Sheikh Naim Qassem promised to late Secretary General of the Hezbollah Martyr Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah that "We will not give up the path of resistance... and we will defeat the Zionist enemy and eliminate them from our soil and land in Lebanon."
"The Zionist occupation regime has based its survival on genocide, displacement of defenseless people and crimes," added Qassem.
"Before you ask why the Al-Aqsa Storm (Flood) happened, ask why the occupation took place in the first place," the Hezbollah deputy SG said.
"Al-Aqsa Storm [Operation on Oct. 7] was the result of 75 years of occupation and this is a legitimate right," he asserted, adding that "The Palestinians have the right to take measures to expel the occupying regime and prevent the continuation of the occupation."
"Israel wants the entire Arab and Islamic region," he continued to warn the regional countries, further describing the regime as a real danger to the region and the world.
"Netanyahu is looking for a new Middle East" Qassem said, adding that "We are facing the danger of a new Middle East that is sought to look like the way the US and Zionist want."
The Hezbollah official said that the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon will continue to defend the Palestinians rights, adding that "we are seeking a ceasefire for Gaza."
"Our resistance is legitimate and defensive, and the goal is to oppose occupation and liberate lands," continued Qassem.
"The current project in the region is an expansionist project," he said, stressing that "Palestine must be liberated."
"We in Lebanon do not consider ourselves separate from Palestine and we do not consider the region separate from Palestine," Qassem underscored.
"The Zionist enemy was in Lebanon for 22 years and it was expelled because of the resistance," the Hezbollah official added.
"Since last week, we have begun implementing a new equation by targeting Haifa and beyond each day with the aim of imposing real losses and costs on the enemy," he explained.
He praised Iran for its support for Palestinians.
"Today we attack Haifa and Tel Aviv; This was Martyr Nasrallah's wish. Today, we attack any part of the occupied territories we want.," continued to stress Qassem.
"There is no resolution that Israel abides by," he later said.

Celsius Holdings, Inc. CELH has been going through quite a rough patch, with its shares plunging a substantial 52% in the past six months. Factors like decelerating sales growth and dwindling market share have led this functional energy drinks and liquid supplements company to underperform the industry, broader Zacks Consumer Staples sector as well as the S&P 500’s respective growth of 2.6%, 9.2% and 15%.
CELH Price Performance Vs Industry, S&P 500 & Sector

At Monday's close, CELH was priced at $34.82, marking a steep 65% decline from its 52-week high of $99.62. The stock is currently trading below both its 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages, indicating a bearish outlook among investors.
Despite this sharp decline, CELH’s stock is trading at a premium to the industry and broader market. With a forward 12-month P/E ratio of 36.21, significantly higher than the industry average of 16.31 and the S&P 500’s 22.08, the valuation reflects historically high investor expectations for the company's future growth.
However, the recent stock performance raises serious questions about whether these elevated expectations remain justified. Celsius Holdings’ Value Score of D further reinforces concerns around its overvaluation, signaling that its current price may not align with underlying fundamentals.

Inside Celsius Holdings’ Struggles: What’s Going Wrong?
Celsius Holdings remains a solid player in the energy drink segment, but it faces broader industry headwinds. Consumer fatigue with energy drinks, a shift toward more health-conscious products, and reduced discretionary spending are putting pressure on the industry. With competition from both new entrants and established leaders like Monster Beverage MNST and Red Bull intensifying, Celsius Holdings is finding it harder to stand out.
One of the company’s key vulnerabilities is its heavy dependence on distribution partnerships. While its alliance with PepsiCo PEP has significantly fueled growth, reliance on a single major partner carries risks. PepsiCo's ongoing efforts to streamline inventory management have already contributed to slower sales growth for CELH. As PepsiCo continues to focus on operational efficiencies and negotiating better terms, Celsius Holdings may struggle to sustain its growth if it remains overly reliant on this partnership.
Celsius Holdings also faces limitations in its global reach, with only 5% of its revenue coming from outside North America. This limited international expansion makes the company heavily reliant on the U.S. market, leaving it vulnerable to heightened risks if domestic growth slows or competition increases.
These obstacles could be the reason why despite reporting a 23.4% revenue increase in the second quarter of 2024 — a strong result in absolute terms — Celsius Holdings fell short of the elevated expectations set by its previous rapid growth. During the four-week period that ended on July 14, 2024, the company captured an 11% share of the MULOC category, a 50-basis point drop from the prior quarter. This dip in market share has sparked concerns about the company’s ability to maintain its competitive position in an increasingly crowded market.
Additionally, margins are becoming a growing concern. While Celsius Holdings improved its gross margins in the second quarter, the company has issued a more cautious outlook for the rest of the year. Rising raw material costs, particularly for aluminum and fuel, coupled with a potentially more aggressive promotional strategy, could put pressure on margins. Investors may interpret this cautious guidance as a sign of potential margin compression in the near term.
CELH Estimates: Are Tough Times on the Horizon?
Amid growing concerns surrounding Celsius Holdings, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings per share has experienced downward revisions. Over the past 30 days, analysts have reduced their projections for the current quarter, the full fiscal year and the next fiscal year. These revisions point to a shift in sentiment, signaling potential hurdles ahead in meeting profitability targets and highlighting the cautious outlook analysts now hold for the company.

Can Growth Initiatives Steer CELH Back on Track?
Celsius Holdings is ramping up its strategic initiatives to reverse its recent decline and reclaim lost market share. The company is making significant investments in innovation, branding, and marketing, with a strong focus on strengthening its competitive position. By regularly introducing new flavors and product variations, Celsius Holdings aims to stay aligned with shifting consumer preferences, positioning itself to regain momentum in a highly competitive landscape.
One of Celsius Holdings’ key strengths lies in its widespread presence across major retail channels. The company has successfully secured shelf space in leading retail chains, convenience stores, and e-commerce platforms, expanding its market reach. Strategic partnerships with giants like Walmart, Target TGT and Amazon have been crucial in boosting Celsius Holdings' visibility and enhancing its accessibility to a broader customer base.
Along with these initiatives, efforts to expand its footprint in the energy drink sector by entering new markets, are designed to equip Celsius Holdings with the tools necessary to address current challenges while seizing future opportunities in the increasingly competitive energy drink industry.
Celsius Holdings at a Crossroad: What Investors Should Know?
Celsius Holdings finds itself at a critical juncture. While the company has demonstrated strong revenue gains, the deceleration in market share and increasing competition signal potential challenges ahead. Its reliance on PepsiCo, slow international expansion, and margin pressures suggest that the road forward may be more difficult than anticipated.
The bearish sentiment reflected in the stock’s recent performance, as well as negative estimate revisions also add to this cautious outlook, suggesting that without a turnaround in core business fundamentals, CELH may continue to face downward pressure. These factors, along with a lofty valuation make Celsius Holdings a risky bet at present. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).

For every ICE champion such as Royal Enfield, the EV segment throws up entirely new possibilities and challenges
Even as it dominates the middleweight segment, Royal Enfield is actively focused on developing its new range of electric motorcycles. The first of which will make its global debut at the EICMA 2024.
Royal Enfield Electric Website Launched – New Teasers
Royal Enfield has shared the first official teaser of their upcoming electric motorcycle with the caption – Save the Date (4th Nov, 2024). They have also launched a new instagram handle (@royalenfieldev) along with a new website section dedicated to their upcoming electric motorcycles (https://www.royalenfield.com/in/en/electric-vehicles/).
The electric motorcycle from Royal Enfield is set to redefine urban commuting, combining the brand’s storied heritage with modern-day technology. As seen in the teaser, this new category of electric two-wheelers is designed to meet the demands of urban mobility, offering a seamless, connected, and agile riding experience. The debut marks Royal Enfield’s strategic move to embrace the future of electric mobility, all while preserving the brand’s essence that has captivated riders for over a century.
The company is not in a rush to launch its electric motorcycles. They are looking to develop truly unique products that can generate the desired interest among enthusiasts. One can expect launch in 2025. Just like the existing ICE range, there will be a multitude of Royal Enfield electric bikes to choose from in the future.
Royal Enfield developing two new EV architectures
To ensure better outcomes, Royal Enfield is working on two distinct EV architectures. One of these platforms is being developed entirely in-house. The second platform is being developed in collaboration with a European startup named Stark Future.
As may be recalled, Royal Enfield had made a strategic investment in Stark Future in 2022. RE had purchased a 10.35% equity stake in the company, with the deal valued at €50 million (Rs 439 crore). The partnership covers collaborations in R&D, technical licensing, technology sharing and manufacturing.
Across both EV architectures, multiple new products are currently under development. One of these has already gone beyond the prototype stage. To manage costs and supply chain constraints, Royal Enfield will be sourcing components locally as far as possible. The company has already inked supply deals with 11-12 key EV vendors.
These partnerships go beyond the battery packs. Imports will be an option only where such parts may not be available locally. On the distribution front, Royal Enfield is thinking about various options. It is possible that the company may launch entirely new outlets for its EVs. Royal Enfield is also building a strong team to power its EV business. Recent hires include former Ducati veteran Mario Alvisi and ex-Ola Electric official Umesh Krishnappa.
Royal Enfield EVs won’t get the thump
While it is difficult to imagine Royal Enfield bikes without the signature thumping exhaust note, the EVs will be completely silent. RE is not even planning to use speakers, as it will feel like a fake experience. The thump with Royal Enfield ICE motorcycles is natural, linked to the bike’s rhythm. It is part of the bike’s haptic response system. Doing the same with an EV using a speaker will feel quite unreal. Even though Royal Enfield is working on its electric range, their ICE engines will continue for several decades. Petrol bikes are everyone’s favourite, and they will be in production as long as regulations allow. | https://www.rushlane.com/royal-enfield-electric-motorcycle-debuts-4th-nov-2024-12478317.html | 2024-10-15T18:12:02Z |
Sony’s remasters disregard strong and intentional art direction
Sony’s remake of Until Dawn came out not long ago, and comparison screenshots are making the rounds in its wake. If you didn’t play the original game or see what it looked like before the remake, you might be forgiven for thinking the new version looks good. It doesn’t. It’s overly colorful, far too bright, and stripped of everything that made the original visually interesting.
Supermassive’s Until Dawn was a smash hit when it was released on PS4 in 2015. It was a little bit rough in certain places – some of the facial animations, for example, exist deep in the uncanny valley – but it had a strong concept and art direction to match. It was supposed to be a cheesy teen slasher flick, filled with suspense in its story and dark, bluish tones in its visual design. Set on the top of a snowy mountain, Until Dawn looked and felt appropriately cold, isolating, and terrifying.
Ballistic Moon’s remake has none of that. Gone are the cold, blue tones ripped straight from the medium it sought to mimic, instead replaced with bright, colorful lighting that Sony says is using “a broader cinematic tonal color palette” but feels more like an attempt at “realistic” lighting.
And sure, maybe it is realistic. Maybe the light in Until Dawn (2024) is reacting exactly as real light would, bouncing off hard surfaces in real time and illuminating scenes exactly like you’d see with your own two eyes. But that’s not what Until Dawn is, and it’s heartbreaking to see realism put ahead of art direction and tone. I don’t know if Ballistic Moon doesn’t know about Until Dawn’s cinematic origins, or just doesn’t care, but the end result is something that looks like every other game that strives for realism. Bland, uninspired, and unexciting.
This isn’t the only time Sony’s done this, either, although it is the first to make it to market. The recently revealed Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered aims to bring the game up to the visual standard introduced in Horizon Forbidden West, which admittedly was a very pretty game. Since its announcement, I’ve seen people fawning over the graphics, telling me that it looked “objectively better” or that the results were obvious.
“Look at the foliage!” they say. “The polygon count is much higher!”
And again, sure, maybe the polygon count is higher. But objectively better? Really? If you can look at the side-by-side footage and tell me with a straight face that the Remastered version looks better, then I truly don’t know what to tell you. I absolutely do not agree, and I think it looks worse in more ways than it looks better. Mostly just different, to be clear, but still worse.
The main issue is that the lighting is absolutely cooked. If you’ll allow a layman to speak for a moment here, I suspect that Nixxes, the developer in charge of the remastered version, has brought Zero Dawn into the updated version of Decima used for Forbidden West, and swapped out a few models in the process. The lighting methods and visual language used for Forbidden West have been slapped onto Zero Dawn, and alongside some minor tweaks here and there, the result is what we see here.
But Forbidden West is set in California and other sunny west-coast locales. Zero Dawn, on the other hand, is set in the Mountain states, a rocky, mountainous region with snow capped peaks and muted colors. I haven’t been to either place, but I know that both are very different visually, and trying to pretend otherwise is just silly. But that’s what Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered does — it takes the sunny, west-coast lighting and aesthetics from Forbidden West and applies them haphazardly to a game that it just doesn’t fit with.
There are other issues too, like character models that look horrendously out of place in a post-apocalyptic society, as if they’ve been run through a TikTok beautify filter. “They yassified the baby,” as I told my colleagues, and it’s deeply unsettling to say the least.
And after all of this, I have to wonder… why? Why make such drastic changes to games with such solid art direction? Every moment and every scene in both Until Dawn and Horizon Zero Dawn looks deliberate, intentionally crafted to perfectly capture a mood and a locale. In their updated versions, that intention is stripped bare, leaving little but mismatched, uninteresting visual experiences that barely feel like the same game.
If Sony is insistent on remaking and remastering its games, it needs to do more than just take the games we know and love and slap a “modern” coat of paint on top. It needs to understand why these games look the way they do, and preserve that look and feel for players both new and old. There’s no substitute for good art direction, no matter how many times your rays are bouncing, or how many polygons your leaves have. | https://www.si.com/videogames/features/sony-ps5-remasters-art-direction | 2024-10-15T18:12:07Z |

American figure skater Ilia Malinin has been doing gymnastics off the ice much of his life, one of the many reasons why he can so effortlessly land the dazzling quadruple jumps that made him a world champion at just 19 years old last March.
It is also why Malinin has been able to so seamlessly incorporate the backflip into his program.
Once banned in competition for its inherent danger, the backflip and all other "somersault type jumps" were removed from the restricted list by the International Skating Union after last season. And almost immediately, they began to pop up in lower-level competitions, including the Lombardia Trophy last month, when Malinin landed one on the way to victory.
But what about more important competitions, such as Skate America, which opens the Grand Prix season Friday night in Allen, Texas? Or the world championships in March in Boston, the last one before the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy?
“I’m definitely planning to keep it," said Malinin, the first skater ever to land the 4 1/2-revolution quad axel in competition. “I’m thinking of ways to really level it up as well in the future, like adding a twist or some crazy other combination.”
At the Lombardi Trophy, Malinin landed the backflip late in his free skate, set to “I'm Not a Vampire” by Falling in Reverse. He also landed five quads over two clean programs to outdistance Japanese rivals Yuma Kagiyama and Shun Sato.
“I’ve been doing it off-ice for four or five years now," explained Malinin, who took the backflip to the ice at first by using support ropes to help guide his landing. “I was doing gymnastics and it started to become muscle memory.”
Many skaters, including reigning Olympic champion Nathan Chen of the U.S., have been doing backflips in exhibitions for years. And in January, French skater Adam Siao Him Fa was so far ahead during his free skate at the European championships that he added one to his program, even though he knew it would cost him points.
The most famous backflip in competition came during the 1998 Winter Olympics in Japan. Surya Bonaly, who knew she would finish out of the medals, landed one on a single blade in her free skate — that particularly flip is now named for her.
Skate America is the first of the six Grand Prix events that lead up to the Grand Prix Final in December in France. And with the Winter Games just over a year away, the primary contenders for Olympic medals will begin to rise to the fore.
Russian and Belarusian athletes once again are banned from competing because of the war in Ukraine.
Kaori Sakamoto of Japan, who will begin her season at Skate Canada later in the month, is trying to become the first woman to win four straight world titles since Carol Heiss won five in a row from 1956-60. Scott Hamilton of the U.S. was the last skater to win four in a row, capturing every title from 1981-84.
Worlds runner-up Isabeau Levito will be at Skate America with American teammates Bradie Tennell and Elyce Lin-Gracey, while Alysa Liu — the 2022 U.S. Olympian fresh off a two-year retirement — will open her Grand Prix season at Skate Canada.
Two-time defending ice dance world champs Madison Chock and Evan Bates are back with their eyes on winning their first gold medals in the event at the Milano-Cortina Olympics. The duo were fourth at the Beijing Games. They did finally receive their team gold medals as part of the U.S. squad that were held up by the Russian doping investigation at the Paris Olympics.
“We’re headed for Milan," said Chock, who along with Bates are known for their avante-garde skating style. "We’re still inspired and finding new things in our skating, and it feels great to keep improving.”
Their biggest rivals are Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier of Canada and Charlene Guignard and Marco Fabbri of Italy.
Reigning world champs Deanna Stellato-Dudek and Maxime Deschamps will begin their Grand Prix seasons on home soil at Skate Canada. Their biggest competition will be Japan's Riku Miura and Ryuichi Kihara, who took silver at worlds, along with Sara Conti and Niccolo Macii of Italy and Minerva Fabienne Hase and Nikita Volodin of Germany.
U.S. pairs champions Ellie Kam and Danny O'Shea will be in the Skate America field this weekend.

Google Goes Nuclear To Fuel Insatiable AI Data Center Compute Demand
As powering AI continues to put more stress on power grids around the world, companies are looking at ways of lessening the burden, while also producing greener means of energy. This is the primary reasoning behind Kairos Power and Google signing a Master Plant Development Agreement, which will create a path to deploying a US fleet of advanced nuclear power projects totaling 500MW by 2035.
“Our partnership with Google will enable Kairos Power to quickly advance down the learning curve as we drive toward cost and schedule certainty for our commercial product,” remarked Mike Laufer, Kairos Power CEO and co-founder. “By coming alongside in the development phase, Google is more than just a customer. They are a partner who deeply understands our innovative approach and the potential it can deliver.”
Kairos Power remarked that under the agreement, it will develop, construct, and operate a series of advanced reactor plants and sell energy, ancillary services, and environmental attributes to Google under Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). The power company added plants will be sited in relevant service territories to supply clean energy to Google data centers, with the first deployment by 2030 to support Google’s 24/7 carbon-free energy and net zero goals.
Google remarked in a blog post there are two reasons for the agreement:
- The grid needs new electricity sources to support AI technologies that are powering major scientific advances, improving services for businesses and customers, and driving national competitiveness and economic growth. This agreement helps accelerate a new technology to meet energy needs cleanly and reliably, and unlock the full potential of AI for everyone.
- Nuclear solutions offer a clean, round-the-clock power source that can help us reliably meet electricity demands with carbon-free energy every hour of every day. Advancing these power sources in close partnership with supportive local communities will rapidly drive the decarbonization of electricity grids around the world.
Google added it hopes the new agreement will go beyond just helping the company. It said that by procuring electricity from multiple reactors, what experts call an “orderbook” of reactors, it will help accelerate the repeated reactor deployments that are necessary to lower costs and bring Kairos Power’s technology to the overall market faster.
“Having an agreement for multiple deployments is important to accelerate the commercialization of advanced nuclear energy by demonstrating the technical and market viability of a solution critical to decarbonizing power grids while delivering much-needed energy generation and capacity,” explained Jeff Olson, Kairos Power Vice President, Business Development & Finance. “This early commitment from Google provides a strong customer demand signal, which reinforces Kairos Power’s continued investment in our iterative development approach and commercial production scale-up.”
Kairos Power claims that Google’s commitment to the Master Plant Development Agreement will “catalyze new nuclear development, support US decarbonization goals, and expand access to safe, clean, and affordable nuclear energy with the ultimate goal of dramatically improving people’s quality of life while protecting the environment.” | https://hothardware.com/news/google-goes-nuclear | 2024-10-15T18:12:08Z |

The Stuttgart forward was called off the bench after an injury to club teammate Deniz Undav in the warm-up
Germany's Jamie Leweling celebrates scoring their first goal with Antonio Rudiger against the Netherlands on Monday. — Reuters
A 63-minute rocket from debutant Jamie Leweling gave Germany a 1-0 win over a limp Netherlands in Munich on Monday and a first appearance in the Nations League knockout rounds.
The Stuttgart forward was called off the bench after an injury to club teammate Deniz Undav in the warm-up.
Leweling had an early goal ruled out for the tightest of offsides before blasting in a loose ball from a Joshua Kimmich corner.
A beaming Leweling told Germany's ZDF network "we won as a team, I scored the 1-0, we won 1-0, but we did well and I'm just happy I could help out.
"The Dutch are a top nation, but we played a good game nevertheless. We used the chances that we had well."
Captain Kimmich told reporters the side were proud to overcome a long injury list.
"There were just three players on the field in comparison to five weeks ago against Holland (a 2-2 draw in the Netherlands), that's why we are proud of what we did.
"You could see how happy we are, how proud we are of the performance today.
"We had lots of new players, some young players, unfortunately lots of injuries but you didnt notice much of a difference.
"Jamie had an outstanding debut -- it's not often the Allianz Arena gives you a reception like that -- he did well."
Dutch captain Stefan de Vrij told UEFA "this wasn't the game we wanted. We know Germany have a very strong team. We have to analyse and improve.
"We're confident about our Nations League chances. Next month will be crucial, especially the first game against Hungary, but we will stay positive and try and win those games."
Oliver Baumann, at 34 the oldest debutant goalie in Germany history, pulled off a spectacular save from Donyell Malen in the final minute to protect Germany's victory.
The Netherlands, missing suspended captain Virgil van Dijk, were poor until the dying stages. They stayed second in the group but only on goal difference ahead of Hungary, who beat Bosnia 2-0.
Before the match, the hosts bid farewell to international veterans Manuel Neuer, Thomas Mueller, Ilkay Gundogan and Toni Kroos, who have all stepped down since the home Euros in the summer.
Since starting his reign one year ago to the day with a 3-1 away win over the United States, coach Julian Nagelsmann has been willing to ignore big names in favour of in-form players.
Injuries to key players including Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz and Marc-Andre Ter Stegen forced Nagelsmann into seven changes, the injury to Undav, who scored both goals in Germany's win over Bosnia on October 11, forced a last-minute reshuffle.
The coach gave Leweling and Oliver Baumann their first caps, while Aleksandar Pavlovic and Angelo Stiller started for the first time.
Leweling appeared to have started his Germany career perfectly when he gave the hosts the lead after just two minutes, but a lengthy video review found Serge Gnabry offside in the build-up.
Despite pressing the Dutch into a series of mistakes playing out from goal, Germany failed to carve another clear opportunity in the first half.
The visitors posed little threat to debutant Baumann's goal, failing to register a shot in the first half.
Leweling's stunning strike jolted the match into life with just under half an hour remaining.
Xavi Simons rattled the crossbar late as the Dutch hinted at a possible comeback, with Malen also going close but failing to break through. | https://www.khaleejtimes.com/ml/sports/leweling-rockets-germany-past-dutch-and-into-nations-league-quarterfinals | 2024-10-15T18:12:08Z |

The renowned preacher in a video expressed profound displeasure over the practice of illegal mining popularly known as galamsey in the country and called out the leaders of the country for failing to tackle it.
He noted in the viral video that, like Ghana, there are a lot of countries in the world that have huge deposits of minerals in their water bodies. However, the leadership of these countries has ensured that no one mines in them to preserve the water bodies.
He further noted that Ghanaians on the contrary have no ethics for our land; therefore, allow foreigners to mine and destroy our water bodies since some citizens and leaders of the country are also involved in galamsey.
Additionally, he mentioned that some countries like China and Malaysia will accuse Ghana of destroying the land with mercury, and take over the production of resources like cocoa, palm oil, etc., which are all produced on a large scale in Ghana.
This situation, he contended could lead Ghana to a state where it no longer exports these products.

We Are Fully Prepared: Cong On Early Polls In Jharkhand
Date
10/15/2024 10:45:12 AM
(MENAFN- IANS) Ranchi, Oct 15 (IANS) As the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Tuesday announced the poll dates for the forthcoming Assembly elections in Jharkhand, ex-state congress President Rajesh Thakur said that their party is fully prepared for the polls.
"The dates of the Election of Jharkhand have now been announced. We thought that the elections would happen after a month the way it happened in 2019," Rajesh Thakur told IANS.
Congress leader further supported the ECI's decision and said, "We are fully prepared for the elections."
"Our government has worked tirelessly for the people. We have given respect to everyone whether they are elderly, widows, women, or sisters. We are also expecting the same kind of respect and support from them.
He asserted that the ECI could have held the Assembly elections in Jharkhand in a single phase if they wanted.
"If the ECI wanted it could hold the polls in a single phase too as they are doing in Maharashtra. However, we don't have any problem with it as well. However, only the ECI will be able to tell why they are holding elections in two phases," he added.
He further explained the reasons why the ECI is holding the elections in two phases.
"Last time, it was held in five phases as there was a BJP government in the Centre and the State. The law and order situation was not good at that time. But, now the situation is very good. But, if they had held elections in Jharkhand in one phase it could have saved time," he asserted.
He further talked about the seat-sharing plan in the forthcoming Assembly elections in Jharkhand and said we have already discussed about it.
"Everything is already clear about the seat-sharing. We will do a press conference and will share the seat-sharing plan. We will contest the election in alliance with the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha in Jharkhand.

Guenther Steiner was a very outspoken Team Principal, who always expected the best from his drivers during his time at Haas. He would be visibly upset, and wouldn’t hold back on his words if they messed up. But that doesn’t mean he had a lot of idea as to what they were doing, as evidenced by his recent comments.
Continuing with his series of appearances across different podcasts, Steiner stopped by the Road to Success podcast hosted by Ben Fowler. There, the Italian-American revealed that even though he led several F1 drivers over the years, he possesses no racing talent himself.
“I cannot race myself,” he said. Steiner also ‘thanked god’ after that, hinting that his behavior would not look good on a racing driver.
Steiner was referring to his personality, which includes a tendency to swear frequently and lose his temper — traits that have been widely documented in Netflix’s Drive to Survive documentary. As a driver, they wouldn’t be ideal, which is likely why Steiner never went in that direction in his life.

Fowler asked Steiner if he had ever been in a racing car, to which the 59-year-old said no. “No, I am not a driver, no.” Steiner took up engineering as a student but dropped out to become a mechanic for Mazda in the World Rallying Championship in 1986.
From there onwards, he climbed the ranks, gained valuable insight into the world of racing and motorsports, and became a natural leader — something he insisted he had to work very hard for. Steiner eventually reached F1 in 2001 with Jaguar.
After a brief stint with the team when it transitioned to Red Bull, the hot-headed boss from Merano took charge of a team for the first time — Haas — in 2016. Unfortunately, things didn’t quite work out for him. In 2023, the team cited poor results as the reason for removing him from his role, after which he began working in media. | https://thesportsrush.com/f1-news-guenther-steiner-admits-he-didnt-have-the-talent-to-pursue-a-racing-career/ | 2024-10-15T18:12:21Z |
