With 145% tariffs now applied to most Chinese imports, the full economic impact will likely emerge with a lag of about a month or more as reduced import volumes and supply chain disruptions begin to take effect. Early high-frequency indicators already suggest those disruptions are imminent.Let's review the key trade war developments since President Trump, following "Liberation Day" on April 2, announced a tsunami of tariff hikes on Chinese imports to 145% on April 11.Amazon Cancels Orders, Walmart Pulls Forecast As Tariffs Take HoldAre China Road Traffic Indicators Set To Collapse As Tariff War Cancels Factory OrdersChinese Sellers On Amazon Panic After Trump's Tariff BazookaLiberation Day Fallout: China's Port Volumes Sink After Trump's Tariff BlitzChinese Plastics Factories Face Mass Closure As U.S. Ethane Supply EvaporatesOn Wednesday, new data from Port Optimizer, a tracking system for vessel operators, showed that scheduled import volumes into the Port of Los Angeles are set to decline sharply beginning on Sunday.Adding to the conversation, FreightWaves CEO Craig Fuller posted on X that trucking activity at the LA Port, the largest container port in the Western Hemisphere, has just plunged ..."Year-over-year trucking activity out of Los Angeles down 23%. It will likely drop to 50% in the coming weeks if there isn't trade war resolution," Fuller said. Year-over-year trucking activity out of Los Angeles down 23%.It will likely drop to 50% in the coming weeks if there isn't trade war resolution.Massive layoffs coming to the West Coast trucking sector pic.twitter.com/rLiow0xmoV— Craig Fuller 🛩🚛🚂⚓️ (@FreightAlley) April 24, 2025He warned: "Massive layoffs coming to the West Coast trucking sector." The incoming disruption at Port LA will soon result in sliding containerized flows from China, which will ripple through the Southern California economy.Here's how the disruption could unfold:Plunging Container Volumes Volume Drop: A decline in imports would slash throughput at the port, disrupting operations that rely on consistent traffic for profitability.Revenue Hit: The Port of LA, which generates revenue through container handling fees, leases, and other port services, would face a significant decline in income.Job LossesDockworkers & Terminal Staff: ILWU labor hours would be cut; possible layoffs or furloughs.Truckers & Warehouse Workers: Major layoffs in the Inland Empire's massive logistics hub (Ontario, Riverside, etc.)—home to over 200 million square feet of warehousing.Broader Economic Fallout (Southern California)The logistics sector is the largest private employer in the Inland Empire. A large drop in volume could collapse parts of the warehouse economy.Retail & Consumer Ripple EffectsHigher costs and shortages for imported goods would pressure retailers and consumers alike.Port DiversionsShippers would increasingly reroute to Mexican and Canadian ports, bypassing LA entirely.Companies could shift sourcing to Mexico or other non-tariffed nations, reducing LA's role as a China-facing import hub.While the first wave of disruptions is materializing at Port LA and could soon ripple across the Inland Empire and then the Heartland, across the Pacific, high tariffs on Chinese goods have already sent factories in the world's second-largest economy into a tailspin, as per a new Financial Times report:Wang Xin, head of the Shenzhen Cross-Border E-Commerce Association, an industry group representing more than 2,000 Chinese merchants, said many of them were "extremely anxious" and had told factories and suppliers to halt or delay deliveries. This had prompted some factories to suspend production for one to two weeks, she said.. . . It is unclear how widespread the factory suspensions are, said Han Dongfang, founder of China Labour Bulletin, which closely tracks Chinese manufacturing and labor. "The rearrangement of China's manufacturing sector will be a long-term process and workers will be sacrificed," he said.What's telling is that the Trump administration is bracing for impact and has likely viewed this port data as new signs emerge of possible de-escalation of the trade war with China.The White House has put itself and the country in a bad situation but doesn’t realize it yet.Around April 10th China to USA trade shut down.It takes ~30 days for containers to go from China to LA.45 to Houston by sea, 45 to Chicago by train.55 to New York by sea.That... pic.twitter.com/8vnGDMWCpt— molson 🧠⚙️ (@Molson_Hart) April 24, 2025On Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Bessent told investors at a closed-door meeting: "No one thinks the current status quo is sustainable, at 145% and 125%, so I would posit that over the very near future, there will be a de-escalation. We have an embargo now on both sides."Bessent stated earlier this week that a trade deal could take two to three years to finalize.President Trump has noted on several occasions that there will be "little disturbance" and "short-term interruption" when the tariffs kick in. Trump says there will be 'a little disturbance' when tariffs kick in: 'We're OK with that, it won't be much' https://t.co/rkGcItbCL5 pic.twitter.com/ZOLSWwt9WA— New York Post (@nypost) March 5, 2025“There will be a short term interruption... I don’t think it’s going to be big.” “There will be disruption”... Is President Trump preparing us for the Mass Start Awakening? pic.twitter.com/UfQX2ehiFG— VAL THOR (@CMDRVALTHOR) March 8, 2025The adjustment period seems imminent. Even before it fully arrives, Americans are already panic-searching for "USA products."It's time to break the nation's addiction to cheap Chinese goods and restore critical supply chains—an essential step to securing economic dominance in 2030 and beyond. Without these supply chains to produce drones, smartphones, chips, electric vehicles, and humanoid robots (all under similar ecosystems of production), it will be impossible to compete with China in the decades ahead. The adjustment period nears. Tyler DurdenThu, 04/24/2025 - 22:35

GETTYSBURG, Pa., April 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ACNB Corporation (NASDAQ: ACNB) ("ACNB" or the "Corporation"), financial holding company for ACNB Bank and ACNB Insurance Services, Inc., announced a net loss of $272 thousand, or $0.03 diluted loss per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to net income of $6.8 million, or $0.80 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and compared to net income of $6.6 million, or $0.77 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2024.Financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were impacted by two discrete items that were related to the acquisition of Traditions Bancorp, Inc. ("Traditions"): a provision for credit losses on non- purchase credit deteriorated ("PCD") loans of $4.2 million, net of taxes, and merger-related expenses, net of taxes, totaling $6.2 million.2025 First Quarter HighlightsACNB closed the acquisition of Traditions effective February 1, 2025 ("Acquisition"). This strategic acquisition will result in a premier community bank that is locally headquartered, managed, and focused.Traditions contributed, after acquisition accounting adjustments, $877.7 million in assets, $648.5 million in loans and $741.5 million in deposits at the Acquisition date.Fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") net interest margin was 4.07% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 3.81% for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 3.77% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The accretion impact of acquisition accounting adjustments on loans and deposits from the Acquisition was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.The allowance for credit losses was $24.6 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $17.3 million at December 31, 2024 and $20.2 million at March 31, 2024. The increases from both prior periods were driven primarily by an initial allowance for credit losses of $5.5 million for non-PCD loans and $1.5 million for accruing PCD loans at the Acquisition date.Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio1 of 9.33% at March 31, 2025 compared to 10.72% at December 31, 2024 and 9.61% at March 31, 2024. The net unrealized loss on the available for sale securities portfolio was $39.7 million at March 31, 2025 compared to a net unrealized loss of $47.7 million at December 31, 2024 and a net unrealized loss of $53.0 million at March 31, 2024.As announced on Form 8-K on April 23, 2025, the Board of Directors approved and declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.34 per share of ACNB Corporation common stock for the second quarter, reflecting a $0.02, or 6.3%, increase over the same quarter of 2024. ACNB repurchased 75,872 shares of ACNB common stock in open market transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2025."At ACNB Corporation, we remain focused on executing our strategic plan to be the community bank of choice in the markets that we serve by building relationships and finding solutions for our customers. As a result, we are pleased to share our first quarter operating results. The quarter represents a solid start to a new year and exciting opportunities for our future," said James P. Helt, ACNB Corporation President and Chief Executive Officer."We are pleased and excited to welcome Traditions Bancorp, Inc. shareholders, employees and customers to the ACNB family as we successfully completed our acquisition in the first quarter. In addition, at the close of the acquisition, three former Traditions directors, Eugene J, Draganosky, Elizabeth F. Carson and John M. Polli joined the Boards of Directors of ACNB Corporation and ACNB Bank. We believe this combination brings together organizations that are unified by a shared vision to banking to create an even stronger community bank and substantially enhance our presence in York and Lancaster counties."Mr. Helt continued, "We are cautiously optimistic for the remainder of 2025 in spite of the uncertain economic headwinds as a result of ongoing tariff turmoil. We are not only focused on the challenges, but also the exciting opportunities that lie ahead and are fully committed to the continued growth and profitability of ACNB Corporation and to enhancing long term shareholder value."Acquisition UpdateDuring the first quarter of 2025, ACNB acquired Traditions, holding company for Traditions Bank, York, Pennsylvania. Traditions was merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of ACNB Corporation immediately followed by the merger of Traditions Bank with and into ACNB Bank effective February 1, 2025. ACNB Bank is operating the former Traditions Bank offices as "Traditions Bank, A Division of ACNB Bank". The acquisition method of accounting was used to account for the acquisition. ACNB recorded the assets and liabilities of Traditions at their respective fair values as of February 1, 2025. The transaction was valued at approximately $83.8 million and substantially expanded ACNB's footprint in the York and Lancaster, Pennsylvania markets. Traditions contributed, after acquisition accounting adjustments, $877.7 million in assets, $648.5 million in loans and $741.5 million in deposits at the Acquisition date. The excess of the merger consideration over the fair value of Traditions assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in goodwill of $20.3 million.As of March 31, 2025, total acquisition accounting adjustments on loans were $24.5 million. The majority of the loan acquisition accounting adjustments are expected to accrete back through as income as loans pay off or mature. Total acquisition accounting adjustments on time deposits were $226 thousand as of March 31, 2025. The acquisition accounting adjustments on time deposits are expected to amortize as an expense over the life of the time deposits. The core deposit intangible was $18.3 million as of March 31, 2025.________________________________________1 Non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to the calculation on the page titled "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of this document.The core deposit intangible is expected to amortize as an expense over an expected life of 10 years using sum of the year's digits method. The acquisition accounting adjustments are subject to refinement for up to one year from the acquisition date as allowable by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP").ACNB recorded an allowance for credit losses of $6.9 million at the Acquisition date, comprised of $5.5 million for non-PCD loans, which was recognized through the provision for credit losses, and $1.5 million for accruing PCD loans, which was recognized as an acquisition accounting adjustment to the amortized cost basis of the acquired loans.ACNB completed, following the Acquisition date, the sale of approximately $98.0 million of Traditions' investments with a yield of 5.03%. With the proceeds from the sale, ACNB paid off $40.2 million of Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings with a cost of 4.73% and invested the remainder of the proceeds into investment securities with a yield of 5.07%.ACNB's financial results for any periods ended prior to February 1, 2025 reflect ACNB on a standalone basis.

Reversal of $480 thousand was booked to unfunded commitments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to a provision of $44 thousand and a reversal of $151 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.Non-performing loans were $10.0 million, or 0.43%, of total loans, net of unearned income, at March 31, 2025 compared to $6.8 million, or 0.40%, of total loans at December 31, 2024 and $3.9 million, or 0.24%, of total loans at March 31, 2024. The increase in non-performing loans at March 31, 2025 compared to March 31, 2024 was driven primarily by one long-standing commercial relationship in the healthcare industry, comprised of both owner-occupied commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans, that moved into non-performing loan status during 2024 and by the Acquisition. The increase in non-performing loans at March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 was driven primarily by the Acquisition. Annualized net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were 0.01% of total average loans compared to 0.04% for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 0.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2024.Deposits and BorrowingsTotal deposits totaled $2.54 billion at March 31, 2025, an increase of $747.5 million from December 31, 2024 and an increase of $704.8 million from March 31, 2024. Included in total deposits at March 31, 2025 were $1.98 billion of interest-bearing deposits, which increased $636.3 million from December 31, 2024 and increased $641.7 million from March 31, 2024. Time deposits, included in interest-bearing deposits, increased $204.1 million and $219.8 million since December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. In January 2025, ACNB Bank issued $20.0 million in brokered time deposits to offset seasonal fluctuations in commercial deposits during the quarter, and ACNB assumed, as a result of the Acquisition, $15.0 million of brokered time deposits of which $5.0 million matured in February 2025. Total noninterest-bearing deposits were $562.7 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $451.5 million at December 31, 2024 and $499.6 million at March 31, 2024. The increases in total deposits, interest-bearing deposits, time deposits and noninterest-bearing deposits were driven primarily by the Acquisition.Total borrowings were $299.5 million at March 31, 2025, an increase of $28.4 million compared to December 31, 2024 and an increase of $26.9 million compared to March 31, 2024. The increases in total borrowings were driven primarily by general balance sheet management.Stockholders' EquityTotal stockholders' equity was $386.9 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $303.3 million at December 31, 2024 and $279.9 million at March 31, 2024. The increase at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025 was driven primarily by the equity issued in the Acquisition slightly offset by dividends paid of $3.4 million, common stock repurchased of $3.1 million and a $272 thousand net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Tangible book value1 per share was $28.23, $29.51 and $26.70 at March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. ACNB repurchased 75,872 shares of ACNB common stock in open market transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, there were 111,795 shares remaining under the current previously disclosed plan.________________________________________1 Non-GAAP financial measure.

Avalanche Studios has confirmed that Hogwarts Legacy on Nintendo Switch 2 is a new build of the game with "next-generation assets" instead of using the Switch port as a foundation for development. However, this means there isn't a Switch 2 Edition upgrade pathway for players who already own the RPG on Switch, like there is with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Party Jamboree.On YouTube, Avalanche's VP of technology Rob Nelson explained that it wasn't an easy choice regarding how to bring Hogwarts Legacy to Switch 2. "So for Nintendo Switch 2, we had a decision to make whether we were going to do an up-port from Nintendo Switch or start with next-generation assets," Nelson said in the Creator's Voice video (seen below). "That was a difficult decision because the easy path would have been to do the up-port from Nintendo Switch. But we felt like we were able to create a better realization of our world by starting with the next-generation assets. And we're really happy that we were able to deliver that." While this should mean better visuals on Switch 2, the downside comes down to the apparent lack of an upgrade path for current owners of Hogwarts Legacy on Switch. For instance, Zelda: Breath of the Wild owners can pay $10 to upgrade to a prettier Switch 2 Edition. It looks like a brand-new, full-priced purchase of Hogwarts Legacy will be required on Switch 2. That said, there is a chance that the original Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy could get a performance boost on Switch 2.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Penn Badgley says he still feels “love” for his former “Gossip Girl” co-stars, even if they aren’t in constant contact with one another.“Between us all, I think it’s an amicable silence. Like when you have, you know, roommates from college, you’re like, ‘Man, we loved going to school together’ and then you grow up, you sort of go in different ways. But I think there’s just, yeah, it’s just love for them all,” Badgley, 38, told E! News at the Season 5 premiere of his Netflix thriller “You” on April 23.Badgley, who played Dan Humphrey on the hit series that ran from 2007 to 2012, also shared his thoughts on the tragic death of late co-star Michelle Trachtenberg, who played the villainous Georgina Sparks.Badgely called Trachtenberg’s death at age 39 — which was caused by complications of diabetes mellitus — “really surreal” and “really saddening.”He also described Trachtenberg as someone with a “really pure heart.”“What I remember of her is she was incredibly quick to laugh,” said Badgley. “She was really joyous. We all have our ups and downs, our lights and shadows, but she had this, I mean, she was mature, but she had this childlike, joyous laugh.”Badgley also opened up this week about what a “struggle” it was to date co-star Blake Lively while the pair were portraying on-off couple Dan and Serena on the show.Badgley, who shares a son James, 4, and is expecting twins with wife Domino Kirke, recalled on the April 23 episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that he felt consumed at the time by the pressures of being on a top-rated TV show.“When you do a television show, you’re doing it constantly because of the nature of that show,” said Badgley. “You feel like you’re constantly, even though no one may be actually asking you to do this, you feel like you’re constantly needing to prove yourself in some manner. Otherwise, what are you doing?”Badgley also said he believed that after six seasons, some viewers weren’t able to differentiate between him and Dan.“You’re seen as this person, you’re called their name out on the street. You also constantly have to be that person at work, and I was 20, I was 21, 22. So like I didn’t have the emotional maturity to understand, to differentiate myself just in terms of self-worth.”“There is not enough separation, I think, for anybody,” said Badgley.Badgley previously spoke glowingly about Lively in a February 2023 interview with Variety.The actor, who told the publication that he “didn’t want to be in television” during his time on “Gossip Girl,” said, “I was biding time a lot with Dan — I was not invested.”He recalled that it was “fun and fast-paced” time in his life until a “dark undercurrent” emerged later in his 20s.When Variety asked the actor if he’d struggled with substance abuse, he said he never did and gave credit to Lively for abstaining from alcohol herself.“Blake didn’t drink, and I think our relationship in some ways saved me from forcing myself to go down that road,” he said.This story first appeared on TODAY.com.

America is a strong market for the GTI, but even we couldn't save the manual.
Dr. Bernard Schayes, a New York City-based physician in private practice with the Mount Sinai IPA and Northwell Health IPA, struggled with meeting the challenges in adopting value-based care.THE CHALLENGEEnsuring patients stayed up to date with essential screenings – such as colonoscopies, mammograms, annual physicals, diabetic and cholesterol screenings, Pap exams for younger patients, and depression screenings – was a constant challenge.Too often, patients missed these critical checkups due to a lack of reminders, scheduling difficulties or barriers related to social determinants of health."Coordinating this care manually was time-consuming and inefficient," Schayes said. "Our team had to track down patients, send reminders and follow up repeatedly – often with limited success. We also wanted to address SDOH factors, but without a streamlined system, gaps in care persisted – putting patients at risk and making it harder to meet value-based care goals.PROPOSALSchayes turned to AI-powered care coordination technology to help bridge these gaps by automating outreach, improving patient engagement and ensuring more seamless coordination. This technology allowed Schayes and his team to focus more on patient care rather than administrative burdens."The AI technology gathers pertinent historical data, including lab results, X-rays and healthcare encounters," he explained. "It reviews medical records and family history while leveraging predictive analytics to enhance patient outcomes. This approach enables and improves personalized care tailored to each individual while also leaving all final decisions with the doctor."MEETING THE CHALLENGE"The AI technology came in addition to my EHR because it can only read files, not write into them," he said. "AI mined the patient record and extracted useful data sets."Schayes said the best way to explain is with an example."We know if a patient has albumin in their urine, they are at a high risk to develop renal failure years into the future," he explained. "By intervening early, we can prevent dialysis. This applies to cholesterol levels, blood sugar (A1C) and many other data points."It is therefore crucial to find or at least identify those who are at high risk as early as possible," he continued. "This is where AI can be vital as it can find these trends early, much faster than a human can."AI also can read and interpret trends in EKGs with a predictive value to prevent cardiovascular disease much faster and better than a human can if it has clearly defined parameters, he added. In so doing, it can save a health system millions of dollars a year while also enabling doctors to be more proactive without adding to their already heavy workloads, he said.RESULTSFor Schayes, AI has helped close significant care gaps with efficient use of staff resources. This was achieved because AI identified care gaps – upon Schayes' approval – and gave staff the option of texting, e-mail or phone calls for outreach. This resulted in closing care gaps in an efficient, time-productive workflow, he reported.ADVICE FOR OTHERS"AI technology has the potential to improve patient care, remove tedious work for providers, and ultimately improve health outcomes on a population health basis," Schayes stated. "With its help, there will be a convergence between data and predictive analytics, and provider care delivery will improve patient outcomes as a result."My workflow has changed since employing AI," he continued. "I record my patient encounters in real time, with the patient's permission. I have a large microphone patients can see for full transparency. The AI platform records the visit and can ignore non-pertinent issues."It does a very good job of recording positive history, positive physical findings and vital signs, he added."The most important part is that I decide on the final diagnosis," he noted. "AI then generates a complete visit note and is far more accurate at inputting the correct codes, saving hours of tedious typing and entering data."AI puts past data in an easily accessible mode and its predictive analytic capability will only continue to improve," he concluded. "We are just at the beginning of a significant improvement for population health."Follow Bill's HIT coverage on LinkedIn: Bill SiwickiEmail him: [email protected] IT News is a HIMSS Media publication.WATCH NOW: Mount Sinai's new CDIO offers an inside look at her very full plate Enterprise Taxonomy: Value-based careQuality CareAnalyticsAICareData and Information

The rumored ultra-thin "iPhone 17 Air" model will be equipped with 12GB of RAM, according to the latest word from Ming-Chi Kuo.In a blog post today, the well-known Apple supply chain analyst said that the iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max will all be equipped with 12GB of RAM. He previously only expected the iPhone 17 Pro Max to have 12GB of RAM, so this is good news for customers who will be purchasing the other models.Kuo said even the base-model iPhone 17 might be equipped with 12GB of RAM, but only if supply chain shortages can be overcome.All of the models in the iPhone 16 lineup are equipped with 8GB of RAM, so the jump to 12GB would be a significant increase. Increased RAM can contribute to improved performance for Apple Intelligence and multitasking.Even if the base-model iPhone 17 sticks with 8GB of RAM, Kuo said he expects all models in the iPhone 18 lineup to have 12GB of RAM.Kuo said the increased RAM will primarily benefit Apple suppliers Micron and SK Hynix.Apple should announce the iPhone 17 series in September.Related Roundups: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 ProTag: Ming-Chi KuoThis article, "iPhone 17 Air Now Rumored to Feature 12GB of RAM Like the Pro Models" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

European officials say they’re optimistic a trade deal can be reached with President Donald Trump, warning of significant economic harm to both Europe and the U.S. if it isn’t. The European Union and U.S. are engaged in tense negotiations to try to reach a trade deal so that U.S. tariffs on EU goods announced by Trump, and EU countermeasures, can be avoided.European officials say they’re optimistic a trade deal can be reached with U.S. President Donald Trump, warning of significant economic harm to both Europe and the U.S. if an agreement isn’t agreed and full-scale tariffs are introduced.“I do believe an agreement can be reached, but at the same time, I do know we have lots of work that we have to do in order to get to that point,” Pascal Donohoe, president of the Eurogroup and finance minister of Ireland, told CNBC on Wednesday.“If we use the time ahead wisely, we can at least create a framework in which we can avoid measures being taken on both sides of the Atlantic that could harm ourselves, harm Europe and harm America,” he said on the sidelines of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank spring meetings in Washington.The European Union and U.S. are engaged in tense negotiations to reach a trade deal so that U.S. tariffs on EU goods announced by Trump, and EU countermeasures, can be avoided.Trump initially imposed a 20% “reciprocal” tariff on all goods coming from the EU but paused the measures for 90 days for negotiations, lowering the duty to 10% until that time. A 25% tariff on foreign cars and steel and aluminum imports remains in place.The EU paused its retaliatory duty targeting 21 billion euros ($24.1 billion) worth of U.S. goods “to allow time and space for EU-U.S. negotiations,” the European Commission said.Talks have not yet yielded any tangible compromises or results, European officials say, and the backdrop to discussions likely soured further on Wednesday after the EU fined U.S. tech behemoths Apple and Meta hundreds of millions of euros each for breaching the bloc’s digital competition laws.The EU insists that its trade in goods and services with the U.S. is reasonably balanced. Data from the European Commission, the executive arm of the EU, said the bloc had a trade surplus of 155.8 billion euros ($176.7 billion) with the U.S. for goods in 2023, but ran a 104 billion euro deficit on services. Overall, EU-U.S. trade in goods and services in 2023 was worth 1.6 trillion euros, according to the EU.Machinery and vehicles make up the largest chunk of EU exports to the U.S. by product group, followed by chemicals, other manufactured goods and medicinal and pharmaceutical products. Spain’s Finance Minister Carlos Cuerpo told CNBC that any failure to reach a deal would be harmful for both Europe and the U.S., with more than 4 billion euros’ ($5.1 billion) worth of trade in goods and services a day at stake.“We need to engage in an open and frank conversation amongst the two sides of the Atlantic, because there’s a lot to lose if we do not get into a fair and balanced agreement,” Cuerpo told CNBC’s Carolin Roth in Washington.“There is this specific figure, of 4.5 billion euros on a daily basis across the Atlantic in terms of trade in goods and services — that’s a treasure that we need to protect,” he noted.“It is [important] how we face these negotiations from the EU side, with an extended hand, to reach an agreement. But it has to be a fair agreement. Let’s not forget that under the current situation, most of the tariffs that were imposed by the U.S. administration are already in place and affecting our companies.”Eelco Heinen, finance minister of the Netherlands, slammed tariffs as a taxation on goods that is “so bad for consumers” and would cause businesses to pause investment.Major headwindsOn Tuesday, the IMF had warned that trade tariffs announced by President Donald Trump pose major headwinds for the U.S. and global economy in 2025.In its April 2025 World Economic Outlook., the IMF forecast a U.S. growth outlook of 1.8% in 2025, down 0.9 percentage points from its January forecast. The fund also cut its global growth forecast to 2.8% this year, down 0.5 percentage points from its previous estimate.The fund predicted a slight decline in the euro zone, forecasting that euro area GDP will hit 0.8% in 2025, before picking up modestly to 1.2% in 2026.It singled out Spain as a bright spot in the region, stating its growth momentum “contrasts with the sluggish dynamics elsewhere,” with the Mediterranean nation expected to expand its economy by 2.5% this year following an upward revision of 0.2 percentage points from the forecast made in January.“This reflects a large carryover from better-than-expected outturns in 2024 and reconstruction activity following floods,” the IMF said.These were the fund’s “reference forecasts” for global economic growth and inflation, which is based on data available as of April 4 — including the U.S.’ “reciprocal” tariffs but excluding subsequent developments like the 90-day pause on higher rates.— CNBC’s Hakyung Kim contributed reporting to this story

Stock futures slipped Thursday after the major averages posted a second straight winning day.Futures linked to the S&P 500 were down 0.5%, while Nasdaq-100 futures traded 0.7% lower. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures lost 234 points, or 0.6%.The major averages posted strong gains on Wednesday, rising more than 1% each. That said, they finished the day well off their highs. At one point on Wednesday, the Dow was up more than 1,100 points.Stocks seemed to get a lift on hopes that trade tensions between the U.S. and China would ease. Earlier this week, President Donald Trump said he is willing to take a less confrontational approach toward trade talks with Beijing. Further, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Wednesday that the U.S. has the “opportunity for a big deal” on trade. Chinese imports are subject to a U.S. tariff of 145%.“While it’s encouraging to hear a more dovish tone on tariffs from the administration, stocks remain range-bound for the time being, as the ultimate goal for markets is either a reversal of the tariffs or significant trade deals,” said Gaurav Mallik, chief investment officer of Massachusetts-based Pallas Capital Advisors. “It can take a few months for corrections to end, and we still believe that this is a correction given the speed of the declines.”In addition, Trump said late Tuesday that he has “no intention” of firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, whose term as Fed chair will end in May 2026. This seemed to boost sentiment in the market, particularly as the relationship between Trump and Powell has been growing more tense in recent days. Earlier this week, the president called Powell a “major loser.”All three of the major averages are on pace for weekly gains, with the Nasdaq up 2.6% and the S&P 500 up nearly 1.8%. The Dow is on pace for a 1.2% advance in the period.International Business Machines slumped more than 7%. The company posted better-than-anticipated earnings and revenue for the first quarter, but maintained its full-year guidance. Southwest Airlines lost 4% after the company said it plans to cut its schedule in the second half of this year and pulled its guidance for earnings before interest and taxes in 2025 and 2026.On Thursday, investors will look for quarterly earnings reports from Alphabet, Intel and PepsiCo. On the economic data front, durable gods orders and weekly jobless claims are due in the morning.‘Bear market rallies are the most violent,’ Wolfe Research strategists say“Bear market rallies are the most violent,” according to Wolfe Research macro strategists Rob Ginsberg and Read Harvey in a note published late Tuesday after Day 1 of the latest market comeback.Tuesday’s 2.5% gain in the S&P 500 showed internal markers such as breadth and volume that “were extremely strong, but that’s the point of the bear market rally, they make you a believer,” the pair wrote.Because their analysis of longer-term, weekly and monthly trends “continues to suggest that we are in a bear market,” Ginsberg and Harvey are looking for “a cluster” of signals to shift direction before declaring the bear dead. Those include a turn in the three-month rate of change and for the S&P 500 to climb above short-term resistance levels between 5500 and 5700.The S&P 500 closed Wednesday at 5,375.86.— Scott SchnipperMarket hasn’t fully priced in a recession yet, Deutsche Bank saysWhile uncertainty stemming from President Donald Trump’s new tariffs have certainly fanned recessionary fears in recent weeks, the market hasn’t fully bought into the idea, according to Deutsche Bank.“It’s clear that investors aren’t fully pricing a recession in just yet,” wrote strategist Henry Allen. “After all, the equity declines have been shallower than recent recessions, as have the widening in credit spreads and the declines in oil prices. So markets clearly don’t see a recession as inevitable, particularly if the tariffs don’t come into force after the latest 90-day extension.”On the flip side, investors not fully pricing in a recession means that stocks could see “significant downside risks” if an economic downturn does indeed materialize.— Lisa Kailai HanStocks moving after market close include Chipotle, Southwest AirlinesCheck out the companies making headlines in after-hours trading.Chipotle Mexican Grill — Chipotle missed first-quarter revenue estimates and said same-store sales declined for the first time since 2020, leading the stock to drop 2.1%. Chipotle also lowered the top end of its outlook for full-year same-store sales growth.Texas Instruments — Shares of the semiconductor manufacturer popped about 4.2% after market close. Texas Instruments reported first-quarter earnings of $1.28 per share on revenue of $4.07 billion, handily beating analysts’ expectations for earnings of $1.07 per share on revenue of $3.91 billion.Southwest Airlines — Southwest Airlines shares dipped 3.1% after the airline on Wednesday said it will reduce its capacity in the second half of 2025, given further signs of weaker domestic bookings this year.

WTI Prices Tumble As Official Crude Inventory Data Disappoints, Production Remains Near Record Highs Overnight gains on the heels of across the board inventory draws reported by API (and some optimism on easing China tensions) have been dashed this morning after comments from the new Kazakh energy minister (pushing back against production cuts for his always over-producing nation). This was then amplified with headlines that other OPEC nations were pushing for accelerated output increases.But for now, all eyes are on the official data...APICrude: -4.57mmCushing: -354kGasoline: -2.18mmDistillate: -1.64mmDOECrude: +244kCushing: -86kGasoline: -4.476mmDistillate: -2.35mmThe official data was considerably worse than API's with DOE reporting a small crude build vs API's big draw.

The decline is partly explained by the weeklong outage of the Keystone pipeline, the conduit that delivers supplies from the oil sands to US refineries.

Total US crude stocks rose for the fourth week helped by the addition of 468k barrels to the SPR...Source: BloombergUS Crude production remains near record highs...Source: BloombergWTI prices are tumbling following the OPEC comments...Earlier this month the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies unexpectedly announced plans to hike output at three times the pace previously expected in May. That move was designed to keep perennial overproducers like Kazakhstan in line with their targets, and Saudi Arabia’s energy minister said at the time the hike would be just an “aperitif” if those countries didn’t improve their performance.“The comment about ‘own interest’ is new to me,” said Arne Lohmann Rasmussen, chief analyst at A/S Global Risk Management.“It underlines that OPEC+ has some tough quarters ahead with the global economy/demand under pressure from the trade-war. Certainly not bullish for oil.”The comments raise fresh concerns about whether OPEC+ will continue to press ahead with a faster-than-expected pace of output hikes in the coming months. That could add supplies to a market that has been relatively strong in the short-term, but that analysts widely expect to be oversupplied later this year. Tyler DurdenWed, 04/23/2025 - 10:47

Canada has been awash with talk of US boycotts since the start of the trade war. It's a theme that's consumed the Canadian election, which will take place on Monday.What's harder to quantify is the actual impact on spending and travel. Today, Statistics Canada released its cross-border report for February and it shows a real impact, though not as large as touted in some reports. A viral news story last month indicated that Canadian air bookings were down 70% but this number is much more modest. That's no surprise as Air Canada said in late March that its US booking curve was down 10% over the next six months.The bad news is that auto and same-day travel is more indicative of real-time decisions, as air travel is often booked months in advance. It suggests we will see poor Canada-to-US travel in March and beyond.Perhaps a caveat is that February weather was particularly harsh and that could have curbed cross-border road trips. Toronto saw 73.4 cm of snow in February 2025 – roughly double the normal amount and the Feb 13-16 period was particularly harsh. Throughout Feb 2025, Environment Canada issued numerous winter storm warnings, blizzard advisories, and extreme cold warnings in some areas. Another system on Feb 28, 2025 brought ~15 cm more snow to Ontario. Compare that to Feb 2024, which saw no major storms.Weather alone in Feb 2025 likely caused a 5–15% reduction in cross-border trips, or around one-third of the same-day auto trip decline. Along those lines, US auto trips to Canada were also down 6.5% y/y in February with same day down 7.0% m/m despite a very strong USD/CAD in the month.

However, caution should be exercised as markets remain inherently volatile.Tech and Semiconductor Stocks: Maintain exposure here. The rebound is significant, but keep an eye on external factors, such as regulatory considerations and future earnings reports, that might affect sustained growth.Consumer Cyclical and Communication Services: Consider reinforcing positions in Amazon, Tesla, Google, and Meta. Their current resilience suggests potential for continued upwards momentum.Diversification: Balance portfolios with strong performers in financials and consumer defensive sectors to hedge against possible tech volatility.To stay ahead in these dynamic markets, continually update your insights with real-time data and analysis.

Nintendo has dropped some bad news for Japanese consumers looking to get the Switch 2 console directly from the company, as it has confirmed that a "significant" number of customers there will not be selected as winners of the My Nintendo Store lottery sale. In a statement, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa apologized for the situation and said that applications had exceeded the company's expectations."To deliver Nintendo Switch 2 to all of you, we have been procuring a large number of components in advance and proceeding with production," Furukawa said on Nintendo's Japanese X account (via a VGC translation). "On April 2, we announced the details of Nintendo Switch 2 and began accepting applications for a lottery sale on the My Nintendo Store. As a result, we received applications from an astonishing 2.2 million people in Japan alone. However, this far exceeded our prior expectations and greatly surpasses the number of Nintendo Switch 2 units we can deliver from the My Nintendo Store on June 5. Consequently, it is with great regret that we anticipate a significant number of customers will not be selected in tomorrow's lottery announcement on April 24."Nintendo will host a second lottery event in Japan, but Furukawa stressed that Switch 2 supplies will still be limited. The company also plans to improve on production of the Switch 2 past the initial launch period, and it currently recommends that Japanese fans make plans to purchase the console from other retailers and online store.Meanwhile, Switch 2 preorders in the US will officially open up starting April 24. Nintendo of America will also offer the console through its store beginning in May, with priority being given to registrants who meet a specific set of criteria. The selected people will receive an invitation email valid for three days, which will allow them to preorder the Switch 2, provided they have purchased any Nintendo Switch Online membership, have been subscribed for a minimum of 12 months, and have 50 hours or more of total gameplay hours on their account.After a period of uncertainty, Nintendo revealed that Switch 2 prices in the US will remain unchanged--$450 for the base model Switch 2 and $500 for the version that includes Mario Kart World--but prices for first-party accessories are increasing. Ahead of its release on June 5, Nintendo has also begun sharing more details on the Switch 2, like how the new Pro Controller can be fully charged much more quickly than the original model.

Netflix recreated an Apple Store from the ground up for its newly released thriller "iHostage," a dramatization of the real-life hostage crisis that took place at Apple's Leidseplein retail store in Amsterdam in 2022.Since filming inside an actual Apple Store was not possible, Netflix and the production team behind "iHostage" reconstructed a full-scale replica of the Amsterdam location. The recreation was designed to match the original Apple Store's layout and architecture, using advanced virtual production techniques to replicate the store's surrounding environment. To build the replica, the production team constructed the interior set on a soundstage, surrounded by a high-resolution LED wall. This display allowed the filmmakers to render a photorealistic virtual version of the Leidseplein area in real-time, simulating outdoor lighting, reflections, and movement visible through the store's large glass façade. This technique has been popularized by productions such as Disney's "The Mandalorian," enabling dynamic camera movement and lighting changes without requiring location shooting. Apple's store design and branding were faithfully recreated based on publicly available references, floorplans, and photographs.The real-life incident occurred on February 22, 2022, when a 27-year-old armed man entered the Amsterdam Apple Store and took a customer hostage with a firearm, claiming he had explosives. The perpetrator demanded €200 million (approximately $227 million at the time) in cryptocurrency and a safe exit. Dutch authorities responded by cordoning off the area and deploying special police units. Over 70 people were evacuated from the building during the five-hour standoff, including customers and employees who had concealed themselves in storage spaces and other rooms. "iHostage" is available to watch on Netflix now.Tags: Apple Store, NetflixThis article, "Netflix Builds Detailed Apple Store Replica for 'iHostage' Movie" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Stem-like cells are necessary for tissue growth yet insufficient on their own to trigger full regeneration.

Dems' Biden Problem: They Broke Him, They Bought Him Authored by Frank Miele via RealClearPolitics,Joe Biden was resurrected – for at least one night – when he delivered a paid speech last week to a conference of Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled in Chicago.While passing up the opportunity to make a tasteless “blind leading the blind” joke, I do think it is necessary to at least question the wisdom of putting the former president, with his now publicly acknowledged mental shortcomings, in the limelight to lead a rear-facing assault on the current administration.Let’s face it. In the wake of a slew of books and articles detailing Biden’s cognitive decline, it’s hard to take seriously his “analysis” of any major issue without being told up front who wrote his speech.Still, Biden mostly stayed on script as he attacked President Trump and accused him, without evidence, of trying to gut Social Security. Yes, Trump and Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency announced that 7,000 jobs would be lost in the agency out of 57,000 total. But there is no proof that those jobs were necessary, and if you asked the average American if they think government agencies are bloated and inefficient, you would get little argument.But Democrats know that Americans are also sensitive about protecting Social Security in order to ensure that the program’s benefits will be available to them when they reach retirement age. So the loss of jobs is a perfect target of opportunity for politicians (and former presidents and their handlers) who want to demagogue the issue.“In fewer than 100 days, this new administration has made so much damage and so much destruction,” Biden said. “They’ve taken a hatchet to the Social Security Administration.” He added:Ask yourself, “Why is this happening? Why are these guys taking aim at Social Security now?” Well, they’re following that old line of tech startups. The quote is, “Move fast, break things.” They’re certainly breaking things. They’re shooting first and aiming later. As a result, there’s always a lot of needless pain and sleepless nights.The octogenarian Biden probably doesn’t know much about tech startups, but he does know a lot about breaking things. Consider his ruinous border policy which invited millions of illegal aliens into the country and twisted U.S. laws to allow them to stay indefinitely. When he claimed he needed a new law to fix the problems he created, many believed him, but Trump closed the border within days of taking office – by following existing law.Instead of talking about how Trump is breaking things, Democrats should be looking at the disastrous Biden administration and asking themselves how they can get out from under its burdensome notoriety. But the American people won’t let that happen. They have one simple question: Who allowed the cognitively challenged Biden to take office in the first place, and who stood him up for years to deteriorate in public and hide in private? Because Democrats enabled Biden to stay in office despite his obvious disability, they “bought” both him and his “broken” legacy.It’s no surprise that CNN and MSNBC barely acknowledged the resurfacing of President Biden in his Chicago speech. Only Fox News covered the event live, since any reminder of Biden is good news for conservatives.Democrats are sure to demand that Biden return to his basement strategy that worked so well in 2020. Just stay out of the way and hope no one catches on that you are just a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”This quote from an anonymous Democratic operative says it all:It takes a special level of chutzpah as the man most responsible for reelecting Donald Trump to decide it’s your voice that is missing in this moment. The country would be better served if he rode off into the sunset.And if Biden does continue to make speeches, it wouldn’t surprise me to find out that it was Republicans who were footing the bill.Frank Miele, the retired editor of the Daily Inter Lake in Kalispell, Mont., is a columnist for RealClearPolitics.

U.S. President Donald Trump said he has “no intention” of firing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he expects “there will be a de-escalation” in Trump’s trade war with China. Markets rally on promising comments made by Trump and Bessent. Tesla’s first-quarter earnings fall short of expectations. Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, said he will be spending “significantly” less time at DOGE. One safe-haven currency has been strengthening, pushing up an exchange-traded fund linked to it.The latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey found that Americans’ opinion of how U.S. President Donald Trump is managing the economy has plunged: For the first time since he entered the White House, more respondents disapprove than approve of the president on the economy.Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has been a significant contributor to the Trump administration, has also seen a decline in his and his company’s reputations. More than 47% of the American public view Tesla negatively, according to the same survey, compared with just 10% for General Motors. As for Musk himself, around half of the respondents see him in a disapproving light.Markets, however, are open-minded and often react almost instantaneously to any positive changes. On Tuesday, Trump’s denial that he wishes to kick Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell out of office, and Musk’s clarification that he will be spending less time in Washington, D.C., were enough to send stock indexes and Tesla shares higher — even though the electric vehicle company’s first-quarter earnings missed expectations.Though Cassio in Shakespeare’s play Othello describes reputation as “the immortal part” of himself, in the markets, the barometer for character tends to be more forgiving.What you need to know today‘No intention’ of firing Powell: TrumpU.S. President Donald Trump has “no intention” of firing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, he told reporters on Tuesday. “None whatsoever,” Trump said in the Oval Office when asked to clarify that he did not seek Powell’s removal. “Never did.” That said, the president added that he “would like to see [Powell] be a little more active in terms of his idea to lower interest rates.”‘De-escalation’ in U.S.-China trade war Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a closed-door meeting Tuesday he expects “there will be a de-escalation” in Trump’s trade war with China in the “very near future,” a person in the room told CNBC. Negotiating with China is likely to be “a slog,” Bessent said at a private investor summit hosted by JPMorgan Chase, but added that neither side “thinks the status quo is sustainable.”Markets jump on promising newsU.S. markets rallied Tuesday on Trump and Bessent’s statements. The S&P 500 rose 2.51%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 2.66% and the Nasdaq Composite added 2.71%. Asia-Pacific markets rose sharply Wednesday. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index jumped almost 2.5% and Japan’s Nikkei 225 added nearly 2%. However, the International Monetary Fund on Tuesday downgraded its growth forecasts for major Asian economies in 2025, citing trade tensions and “high policy uncertainty.”Tesla’s earnings fall shortTesla reported Tuesday first-quarter revenue and earnings that missed expectations. Total revenue slid 9% to $19.34 billion from $21.3 billion a year earlier. Net income plummeted 71% to $409 million, or 12 cents a share, from $1.39 billion or 41 cents a year ago. Analysts were expecting a revenue of $21.11 billion and a profit of 39 cents a share, according to LSEG data. Tesla is planning to enter the India market, CFO Vaibhav Tanej said during its earnings call.Musk says he will spend less time at DOGEDespite Tesla’s disappointing earnings, which it announced after the bell, its shares popped more than 5% in extended trading. Investors could be cheering CEO Elon Musk’s statement that his time spent running Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency will drop “significantly” starting in May. As of Monday, Tesla shares were down 44% for the year, generating $11.5 billion in mark-to-market profits for Tesla shorts in 2025.[PRO] Safe-haven currency amid flight from U.S.As the U.S. dollar slides and the stock market whipsaws, investors are piling into one safe-haven currency.

Elon Musk said that China’s new trade restrictions on rare earth magnets have affected the production of Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robots. He added that the company was working through the issue with Beijing and hoped to get approval to access the critical components. Tesla CEO Elon Musk says China’s new trade restrictions on rare earth magnets have affected the production of the company’s Optimus humanoid robots, which rely on the exports. Speaking on a Tesla earnings call on Tuesday, Musk said that the company was working through the issue with Beijing and hoped to get approval to access the critical resources.China, earlier this month, imposed new export controls on seven rare earth elements and magnets used in everything from defense to energy to automotive technologies. The move was in retaliation for U.S. President Donald Trump’s escalating tariffs.According to Musk, Beijing has asked Tesla to guarantee that the rare earth magnets under expert control will not be used for military purposes.“China wants some assurances that these aren’t used for military purposes, which obviously they’re not. They’re just going into a humanoid robot,” he said.The new restrictions, which have raised the risk of global shortages, require exporters of medium and heavy rare earths in question to receive licenses from China’s Ministry of Commerce.China dominates the market for many of these rare earths, with the U.S. unprepared to fill a potential shortfall, according to the Center for Strategic & International Studies. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has launched an investigation into potential new tariffs on all U.S. imports of critical minerals in response to China’s export controls. Future growth at risk?During the earnings call on Tuesday, Musk emphasized the importance of humanoid robots to the company’s future plans. “The future of the company is fundamentally based upon large scale autonomous cars and large scale, large volume and vast numbers of autonomous humanoid robots,” he said. Previously, Musk had announced plans for Optimus to produce about 5,000 units this year as the technology grows as part of Tesla’s future business plans. Moreover, he said that Tesla would deploy the robots in its EV factories. It’s unclear to what extent export controls might alter these plans. However, Musk reassured investors on Tuesday that the company still plans to produce thousands of robots this year, with thousands also expected to be deployed at Tesla factories.The emerging technology could help Tesla drive some investor optimism as its EV business struggles, with its stock down about 37% year-to-date.Steve Westly, founder and managing partner of The Westly Group and former Tesla Board member, told CNBC’s ‘Closing Bell Overtime‘ on Tuesday that the company needs to find a new growth engine soon. The company is expected to face stiff competition from other humanoid robot players in China, such as Unitree Robotics and AgiBot, both of which reportedly plan to enter mass production this year. The export controls could give the Chinese players another advantage over their U.S. competitors, according to some analysts.While Musk is upbeat about Tesla’s prospects in the space, going so far as to claim that it is ahead of the competition, he is concerned that the leaderboard will be filled with Chinese companies.

Hindenburg Research, the forensic financial firm that challenged the Adani Group, took its name from the infamous airship that burst into flames upon arriving in New Jersey in 1937. And the counter to its damning report against the conglomerate was dubbed 'Operation Zeppelin,' named after the German dirigible airships used for reconnaissance and bombing during the First World War.In January 2023, Hindenburg published a scathing report describing the Adani Group, one of India's largest conglomerates, led by one of its richest men, as "the largest con in corporate history".The fallout was swift: stock prices plummeted, wiping out over USD 150 billion in market value at the lowest point, and the group's biggest public offering was abruptly scrapped. For a moment, it seemed like Gautam Adani's empire was on the brink.But that impression didn't last long.

Ken Cedeno / REUTERSLook, I got out of the Donald-Trump-is-definitely-going-to-do-this-or-that game a while back. Because, well, the guy does a whole lot of things any normal politician wouldn’t even think of doing. Like nominating Pete Hegseth to run the Department of Defense. But I will tell you that knowing Trump, and how quickly he loses patience with anyone getting bad press, Hegseth is on very thin ice amid the latest round of leaks slamming his leadership at the Pentagon. So who could be next in line? There’s Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton, who has the resume; he spent 5 years in the Army, serving in Iraq and Afghanistan—and also went to Harvard Law School. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis also has a military background, and Trump reportedly reached out to him when it looked like Hegseth might not make it to a confirmation vote earlier this year. Iowa Senator Joni Ernst, another veteran and a leading voice in Congreess on the issue of sexual assault in the military, did Trump a major solid when she came out in support of Hegseth’s nomination. Maybe the ever-transactional Trump decides to return the favor?

If Ben Affleck’s son Samuel thought a pair of $6,000 sneakers were a shoo-in just because of who his dad is — he was sorely mistaken.During Affleck’s April 22 appearance on Jenna & Friends, guest co-host Andy Cohen brought up a clip that recently went viral on the Got Sole Instagram account. In the video, 13-year-old Samuel shows interest in purchasing a pair of Dior Air Jordan 1s at a sneaker convention, to which Affleck quipped, “That’s a lot of lawns you gotta mow there.”Suffice to say, Samuel walked away empty-handed.“He goes, ‘We have the money.’ I was like, ‘I have the money. You’re broke!’” Affleck recalled on TODAY with a laugh. The actor — who stars in the upcoming “Accountant 2” — then shifted to a more serious note.“Listen, you love your kids — you want to give them everything and do anything for them,” Affleck said, adding that at the same time, you’re doing them a “disservice” if you don’t set boundaries. Affleck, who also shares daughters Violet, 19, and Fin, 16, with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, noted that his “oldest two” have jobs.Violet is currently a freshman at Yale University and is working while trying to secure a summer internship, he said. Fin, meanwhile, has “a kind of classic, you know, teenager working in a shop job.”“And my son, who’s 13, he’s reckoning with that reality right now, as he’s looking at no shoes in his closet,” Affleck joked. “He got shoes, just not like crazy, expensive fancy shoes. I’m like, ‘Well, if you want that, you can work 1,000 hours at minimum wage — and if you work 1,000 hours, you might not want to spend it on a pair of shoes.”Ben Affleck and his son Samuel in 2022. Allen Berezovsky / Getty ImagesEarlier in the show, Affleck shared with TODAY co-anchor Savannah Guthrie that he and Violet are both Spanish speakers. Affleck studied the language at the University of Vermont and has showcased his impressive skills over the years.“My daughter is a student of Spanish, and often, like, competes with me. She will tell me that hers is better than mine,” Affleck told Savannah. “And I’m glad that I get the chance to be on national television and just claim victory!”This story first appeared on TODAY.com.

Manhattan Congestion Toll Remains In Effect Despite Trump Admin Deadline For Removal A Trump administration deadline to remove a toll charged to drivers in Manhattan, New York City, by April 20 has not been met by local authorities.On Jan. 5, the city implemented a congestion pricing policy under which drivers of cars, small vans, pickup trucks, and SUVs are charged a $9 toll for entering Manhattan below 60th Street between 5 a.m. and 9 p.m. on weekdays and between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. on weekends.The rates change during other times based on peak traffic. Trucks, taxis, buses, motorcycles, and Uber services are also subject to the toll.In February, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) terminated approval for the congestion pricing policy. New York state’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), the state agency overseeing the tolls, then sued the federal government for canceling the program.The DOT had initially given the MTA until March 31 to stop the collection of tolls under congestion pricing. This deadline was later extended by a period of 30 days, until April 20. By Sunday’s deadline, congestion pricing was still in effect in New York City.But, as Naveen Athrappully reports below for The Epoch Times, both New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office and the MTA confirmed on Sunday that its system of traffic cameras continues to collect the fee assessed on most cars entering the borough below Central Park.“The cameras are staying on,” Hochul’s spokesperson Avi Small said.John J. McCarthy, the MTA’s chief of policy and external relations, said, “In case there were any doubts, MTA, State and City reaffirmed in a court filing that congestion pricing is here to stay and that the arguments Secretary Duffy made trying to stop it have zero merit.”The DOT said it would not remove the deadline even as the court case plays out, saying it would “not hesitate to use every tool” at its disposal if the state failed to stop the toll.The MTA argues that toll fees help raise money to upgrade the city’s aging transit systems.Hochul previously said the money would underpin $15 billion in debt financing for mass transit capital improvements, with 80 percent of the money to be spent on the subway and bus system and 20 percent on two commuter rail systems.The Trump administration opposed the toll over concerns it negatively affects small businesses and average American citizens.In a March 20 statement on social media platform X, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the “unlawful pricing scheme charges working-class citizens to use roads their federal tax dollars already paid to build.”Duffy said Hochul’s “refusal to end cordon pricing“ and her ”open disrespect towards the federal government is unacceptable.”On Monday, Duffy sent a letter to Hochul regarding the state’s “illegal toll,” according to an April 21 statement from the DOT.The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) has been given 30 days to describe how its noncompliance is not illegal.If the tolls are not stopped by then, or if the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), after evaluating NYSDOT’s response, determines that New York is out of compliance, the agency will take multiple actions, it saidThis includes ceasing further “advance construction” projects within Manhattan and no more National Environmental Policy Act approvals for projects in the borough. The only exception would be if the projects are deemed to be essential for safety, the agency said.If the noncompliance continues, more restrictive actions will be taken, including ceasing approvals for certain projects within New York City, it saidThe corrective measures “may be expanded to other geographic areas within the State of New York if noncompliance continues,” DOT said.Cars pass under E-ZPass readers and license plate-scanning cameras on the George Washington Bridge as congestion pricing takes effect in New York City on Jan. 5, 2024. Kena Betancur/AFP via Getty ImagesMTA Versus DOTIn its complaint against the federal government, MTA said that the FHWA, a division of the DOT, had executed the Value Pricing Pilot Program (VPPP) allowing the congestion toll collection in November 2024.It criticized the Trump administration’s efforts to terminate the congestion pricing, calling them “unlawful.”The defendants have provided “no basis” for reversing their position on the program despite having approved it only a few months back, the MTA argued. Defendants in the case include the DOT, FHWA, and Duffy.“Neither the VPPP Agreement nor applicable law or regulations permit FHWA to unilaterally terminate the VPPP Agreement,” the lawsuit said.“This makes good sense. If FHWA had the right to unilaterally terminate a VPPP program that had already been approved and implemented, it would create uncertainty around the future of such programs any time leadership at FHWA, USDOT, or the White House changed—uncertainty that may make it difficult to issue bonds for other projects and would clearly undermine the purposes of the VPPP.”Terminating the VPPP agreement is an “open disregard of a host of federal statutes and regulations” while also violating MTA’s rights under the U.S. Constitution, the complaint said.In a Feb. 19 letter to Hochul, Duffy said New York City’s need for congestion pricing “appears to be driven primarily by the need to raise revenue for the Metropolitan Transit Authority system as opposed to the need to reduce congestion.”Toll rates set under VPPP “should not be driven primarily by revenue targets,” he said.Signs advising drivers of congestion pricing tolls are displayed near the exit of the Lincoln Tunnel in New York City on Feb. 19, 2025. Seth Wenig/AP PhotoDuffy said he recognized that the Federal Highway Administration under the Biden administration had deemed the congestion pricing policy eligible for approval under the VPPP initiative.The Federal Highway Administration “did not explain the basis for its conclusion,” he wrote.Even though the NYSDOT and the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority (TBTA) have relied on the VPPP agreement to collect tolls, Duffy said such reliance “should not prevent the termination” of the agreement.While NYSDOT and TBTA “have incurred costs related to the program, many of these costs were incurred” before the agreement was signed. The Federal Highway Administration “is not aware of any substantial costs associated with the physical stopping of the program,” the letter said.The Epoch Times reached out to Hochul and the MTA for comment but did not receive a response by publication time.

U.S. President Donald Trump renewed his attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. American stocks and the dollar fell while gold prices hit a fresh high. Shares of Tesla dropped a day before the company announces its first-quarter earnings. India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi met U.S. Vice President JD Vance in New Delhi, where both leaders hailed progress on a trade deal. Japanese investment bank Nomura said Tuesday it will buy the U.S. and European public asset management businesses of Macquarie. Markets would likely have a “severe reaction” if Trump moves to remove Powell, according to Evercore ISI.Yesterday’s edition of this newsletter cautioned that U.S. President Donald Trump’s desire to intervene in the Federal Reserve, as he expressed to reporters on Friday, could result in upheaval in the markets. That didn’t happen because markets were closed for the Good Friday holiday.On Monday, trading resumed. So have Trump’s attacks on the central bank — and, more pointedly, on Fed Chair Powell, describing him as “Mr. Too Late” and “a major loser” for not cutting interest rates. Trump appointed Powell to the Federal Reserve’s highest seat in his first presidential term during 2017.With no market closure to shield shares from Trump’s threats, investors unloaded their stocks. All major U.S. indexes fell, weighed down by steep declines in the “Magnificent Seven” group of shares. The U.S. dollar weakened to a three-year low while gold prices hit a new high, suggesting, in combination, that global investors are losing confidence in the U.S. economy and reallocating their capital to safer assets shielded from Trump.What you need to know todayTrump escalates attacks on PowellU.S. President Donald Trump on Monday renewed and escalated his attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. ′′’Preemptive Cuts’ in Interest Rates are being called for by many,” Trump said on Truth Social. “There can be a SLOWING of the economy unless Mr. Too Late, a major loser, lowers interest rates, NOW,” Trump wrote, referring to Powell. On Friday, Trump also called for Powell to cut rates.Stocks and U.S. dollar fall as gold hits highStocks in the U.S. fell Monday. The S&P 500 lost 2.36%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 2.48% and the Nasdaq Composite was down 2.55%. The ICE U.S. Dollar Index fell as low as 97.92 on Monday, the lowest level since March 2022, according to FactSet. Gold prices jumped to $3,452.30 per ounce, a fresh record. Asia-Pacific markets traded mixed Tuesday. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index climbed nearly 0.5% but Japan’s Nikkei 225 declined roughly 0.2%. The Bank of Japan will likely pause rate hikes in its May meeting, said Moody’s Analytics.Shares of Tesla drop before earningsTesla shares fell almost 6% on Monday, a day ahead of its first-quarter earnings report. The stock is now down 44% for the year after wrapping up their worst quarter since 2022 in March. In the online forum that Tesla solicits investor inquiries before its earnings calls, one investor, referring to CEO Elon Musk, asked, “What steps has the board of directors taken to mitigate the brand damage caused by Elon’s political activities?”Vance and Modi optimistic on dealIndia’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi met U.S. Vice President JD Vance, who was in India for a mostly personal trip, in the nation’s capital on Monday. A statement from Modi’s office said the two leaders “welcomed the significant progress in the negotiations for a mutually beneficial India-U.S. Bilateral Trade Agreement.” On Monday, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said both countries have “finalized the terms of reference to lay down a roadmap for the negotiations on reciprocal trade.”Nomura to buy parts of MacquarieJapanese investment bank and brokerage group Nomura said Tuesday it will buy the U.S. and European public asset management businesses of Macquarie, an Australian investment banking company, for $1.8 billion. The all-cash deal is expected to close by the end of this year, subject to regulatory approvals.[PRO] Markets could have ‘severe’ reaction to TrumpStocks and bonds would likely have a “severe reaction” and sell off sharply if Trump makes a move to get rid of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, Evercore ISI’s vice chairman, Krishna Guha, told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” Monday. While Powell has said he doesn’t believe the president can legally remove the Fed Chair, Guha highlighted one way that Trump can pressure Powell without firing him.And finally...Nurphoto | Nurphoto | Getty ImagesAs the dollar falters, the world’s central banks tread a tightrope — devalue their currency or notUncertainty about U.S. policymaking has led to a flight from the greenback and Treasurys in recent weeks, with the dollar index weakening more than 9% so far this year. The drop in the U.S. dollar has led other currencies to appreciate against it, especially safe havens such as the Japanese yen, the Swiss franc and the euro.While a stronger local currency might help tame inflation through cheaper imports, it complicates export competitiveness particularly under renewed U.S. tariffs, said Thomas Rupf, VP Bank’s co-head for Singapore and Asia chief investment officer.Currency devaluation is likely to be more of an active consideration across emerging markets, particularly in Asia, said Nick Rees, head of macro research at Monex Europe. However, those countries and Asian central banks will need to tread a fine line to avoid capital flight and other risks.

We Took The Buyout: Federal Employees On Why They Accepted The Offer To Quit Authored by Stacy Robinson via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),Shortly after taking office, the Trump administration offered federal employees a deal many couldn’t refuse: resign voluntarily and receive full benefits and paid leave lasting until September.Demonstrators rally outside the U.S. Office of Personnel Management in Washington on Feb. 5, 2025. Nathan Howard/ReutersMore than 75,000 workers eventually accepted the Deferred Resignation Program, or buyout, which came as part of the administration’s broader efforts to shrink the size of the federal bureaucracy. Since the beginning of President Donald Trump’s second term, the government has already laid off hundreds of thousands of federal employees and contractors.As the federal government concludes a second round of buyout offers to nudge still more government workers out of the bureaucracy, The Epoch Times spoke with several employees who took the first buyout—and one who was not allowed to take it—about how the decision has affected their lives.It wasn’t just Democrats who took the buyout, either: All who spoke to The Epoch Times about their decision were Trump supporters, and their accepting the offer was based on personal, rather than political, reasons. Most asked to remain anonymous over privacy concerns.A former meteorologist told The Epoch Times that the buyout was too good to pass up. He was already eyeing retirement, and the government’s offer simply allowed him to jump-start those plans.This was the most common reason for several others who took the deal as well.Bill Page, a former curriculum manager for Army University, said he and most of his colleagues were in the same situation.“Almost everybody in my section also took it. We were all older, or most of us were older, and were thinking about retiring anyway. And this opportunity came up.”Page said his department was somewhat superfluous anyway. The employees who were too young to retire—or simply wanted to keep working—were allowed to move to other departments. Those who were already eligible for retirement had their buyout compensation extended to December, making the transition into retirement easier.The Epoch Times asked Page about his next chapter.“I’m 71, my next chapter is probably dying or something,” he joked. “But one of the reasons I didn’t retire until now was because I didn’t know what I would do with myself. I thought I wouldn’t have anything to do, and I was wrong. I’ve done all kinds of things ... and I’m enjoying myself.”A former cybersecurity agent told the Epoch Times that the buyout was “a blessing.”On Jan. 20, eight days before the buyout offer was announced, Trump asked federal agency heads to bring employees back into the office “as soon as practicable.” For years, and especially since the COVID-19 pandemic, many federal employees have been permitted work remotely, rarely or never coming into the office physically.By this time, the cybersecurity agent said, he and his wife had moved to the midwest and had little desire to return to the east coast.Fortunately, he was eligible to retire in September after a decade of service.“So it worked out for me. Like I said, I don’t know if everybody has that experience, but for me, it worked out real well.”Not everyone was as enthusiastic about their decision to take the offer.One man, a 58-year-old in asset management, told The Epoch Times that he was essentially forced to accept the buyout due to the prohibition on remote work.He said he had worked remotely for years when the call to return to the office came in. His agency had a building that was only about a 20 minute drive that he hoped would suffice.However, he later learned that, due to his particular set of duties, he might be required to work out of the Washington office, on the opposite side of the country. He said he didn’t find such a move desirable or financially feasible. Thus, he felt forced to take the buyout and retire two years early.“I wouldn’t get a reduced retirement once I turned 60,” he said.But he said available information at the time “wasn’t full and complete.” His department pushed off any final decision on remote workers beyond the window to take the buyout.Uncertain about whether he'd have to move, he took the offer just to be safe, he said. But he expressed concern that the reduced retirement benefit may cause a bit of financial strain in the future.Not everyone was allowed to take the buyout, which was only available to those not considered “essential.”One young woman, an acquisitions specialist, jumped at the chance to live her dream of being a full-time homemaker when she learned about the offer. She said the lagging economy had forced her to work for over a decade, since she and her husband needed the extra income to support their two small children.Her husband expects to receive enough military disability benefits to support the family, but not until later this year. In the interim, she suggested the family is struggling.“It’s just kind of hard right now, with just things being so expensive and just not having enough resources.”She had hoped to use the buyout to allow her to leave work early and begin homeschooling her 5-year old. But the government rejected her request, labeling her an “essential” worker.“It was kind of frustrating. They promised you, you know, you’re gonna get paid out till September, and then they made it seem like everybody would get approved.”She had been told beforehand that rejections would be rare, but in her department the opposite turned out to be true. Less than 20 employees were approved, perhaps because the department’s work was deemed to be especially crucial. But she insisted there was still plenty of fat to trim there.“I do see a lot of positions in our agency that they could do away with to save the government money. I feel like they have a lot of employees that do similar jobs that they could kind of cut, especially in our headquarters.”Although everyone who spoke to The Epoch Times was in favor of the program—and the reduction in the size of government that prompted it—they also generally felt the Trump administration’s plans had all been conducted a bit hastily.Some, like the meteorologist, noted that while there was substantial federal bloat to remove in some agencies, their own departments were already “woefully understaffed.”One former employee said that his younger colleague was set to be promoted, but had to wait until workforce reductions were comp.leted. If he had taken the promotion when it was scheduled, it would have put him in “probationary status,” and there was a chance he might have been targeted for firing.Joseph Lord contributed to this report.

Should farm fields be used for crops or solar? MSU research suggests both
Five scientists from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center will be recognized with Scientific Achievement Awards and honors at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2025.
Farmers apply nitrogen fertilizers to crops to boost yields, feeding more people and livestock. But when there's more fertilizer than the crop can take up, some of the excess can be converted into gaseous forms, including nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas that traps nearly 300 times as much heat in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. About 70% of human-caused nitrous oxide comes from agricultural soils, so it's vital to find ways to curb those emissions.

Putin Confirms End Of Easter Truce, Large-Scale Fighting Resumes Russia has confirmed the end of its 30-hour Easter truce, which reportedly had some success as areas across the frontlines saw guns and shelling fall silent for the first time in well over three years.On Monday the Kremlin acknowledged that military action has resumed, and also emphasized again that the ceasefire which began Saturday evening was indicative of its attitude that it is indeed open to any peace initiatives."Our attitude to ceasefires is positive, and that is why we proposed the initiative, especially as it was during the holy Easter days," Putin had said of the special holiday weekend truce. "We’ve seen the initial reaction [from Kiev], as I believe everyone did. The statement characterized our proposal as ‘playing with lives’ and so on."Via Al Jazeera footageZelensky had quickly accused Putin of not being genuine, and suggested it was a PR move intended to signal the Trump administration. "As of Easter morning, we can say that the Russian army is trying to create a general impression of a ceasefire, but in some places, it does not abandon individual attempts to advance and inflict losses on Ukraine," he had posted on X."In practice, either Putin does not have full control over his army, or the situation proves that in Russia, they have no intention of making a genuine move toward ending the war, and are only interested in favorable PR coverage," Zelensky wrote.But Putin had pointed out, "Apparently, smarter people – probably foreign handlers – explained that refusing such a proposal is a losing proposition for the Kiev regime, and [the Ukrainians] swiftly agreed."Putin has also shot back in fresh Monday statements that Zelensky was "ready to reject Easter ceasefire — until his Western curators reminded him it's bad PR to oppose peace outright."Ukraine has meanwhile proposed extending the truce for 30 days after it ended midnight Sunday, resulting in the Kremlin saying it is studying the possibility. Putin has since said he is reviewing a Ukrainian proposal for each side to case attacks on any civilian infrastructure.Still, Putin has made clear that he's not interested in a merely temporary solution, but wants to achieve something lasing, on fears that Ukraine would just use a 30-day window to rearm and regroup.Russian state media has published footage showing that during the Easter truce there was some positive, peaceful engagement among some troops on the ground.Rare moment of direct communication between Russian & Ukrainian soldiers during Easter ceasefireThey soon returned to their positions, retrieving their wounded pic.twitter.com/gyD6U2trcy— RT (@RT_com) April 21, 2025As the for US, the State Department on Sunday that the US remains committed to "a full and comprehensive ceasefire."

Dive Brief:Shippers are taking longer to execute contracts as they take a more cautious approach to an uncertain market plagued by rising tariffs, executives at J.B. Hunt Transport Services said on a Q1 2025 earnings call.The company is still in “bid season” for its intermodal business and expects to lock in several larger contracts over the next few months, according to Darren Field, president of intermodal. However, it has had only “modest success” in lowering rates while retaining existing business.The wait-and-see approach from shippers mirrors behavior during similar periods of economic uncertainty such as the Great Recession, according to Michael Zimmerman, partner in the strategic operations practice of global management consulting firm Kearney.Dive Insight:J.B. Hunt’s contracting process takes roughly 18 months to close, according to Brad Hicks, president of dedicated contract services. But the timing of when deals sign and close will drive the company’s ability to return to positive revenue and operating income growth in 2025.In Q1, revenue for the carrier dropped 1% to $2.92 billion, while operating income dropped 8% to $179 billion. The revenue decline was driven by dips across most of the carrier’s segments, including dedicated contract services, integrated capacity solutions, final mile and truckload.The caution from shippers to close contracts comes during a time of fluctuating tariff policy. President Donald Trump paused most country-specific tariffs for 90 days earlier this month while raising duties on imports from China to a combined 145%. The administration has also levied sector-specific duties, with more promised.Shippers are planning for multiple scenarios as they determine how tariffs will influence their short- and long-term business strategies, said Spencer Frazier, EVP of sales and marketing at J.B. Hunt, on the earnings call.“As part of this scenario planning process, some customers are considering ways to alter supply chain freight flows and/or their country of origin sourcing, but these changes will be part of a much longer decision process,” Frazier said.The wait-and-see approach has been a common tactic for shippers, but most larger companies prefer locking in their annual contracts with rates and capacity assurance, according to Kearney’s Zimmerman.“We believe this phenomenon is a negotiation strategy where shippers, in the face of major carriers that are warning them that rates will head up and capacity will again become scarce, are holding out for better rates,” Zimmerman told Trucking Dive.Against this backdrop, carriers are trying to steer shippers away from the low spot market, which has been on a gradual downward trend in early 2025, according to Zimmerman.“It’s a classic tug of war and the evidence today favors the shippers and the carriers are proving stubborn and so you get a standoff,” Zimmerman said.Shippers have previously shown similar caution when the economy is entering or in a recession, he added, pointing to the Great Recession as an example.“The situation today is exacerbated by the fact that carriers enjoyed high rates in 2020 Q4 to Q1 2022 and the market has headed down since Q1 2022 and the recovery of the market has been delayed,” Zimmerman said. “So, carrier optimism is running up against spot market rate reality.”During the week of April 6, spot rates across all modes dipped, per DAT data, even for the flatbed sector, which had inched up since early February. The decrease was due to tariff uncertainty and tighter capacity, Ken Adamo, DAT chief of analytics, said in an email.Shippers also worry tariffs could further elevate shipping prices during a time of high inflation. Driving down costs for shippers and its own operations in such a volatile market has been a challenge for J.B. Hunt, according to President and CEO Shelley Simpson.“Here we've come into now finishing up our third year of a freight recession with meaningful pressure to reduce costs from our customers and you've seen that in the work that we've been doing trying to eliminate costs, but the inflation that's coming alongside that, I can't think of a single cost item that is actually down through this freight recession,” Simpson said on the earnings call. “So that's very unlike anything we've ever experienced.”

Japan Posts Record Population Drop, Shrinking For 14th Year, As Demographic Crisis Deepens Japan's already collapsing population just posted its biggest annual drop on record, falling by 898,000 people as of last October compared to a year earlier, Kyodo News reported.This marked the 14th consecutive year of population decline in the country, according to a government estimate. The previous record drop was 861,000, reported in July 2024.This was the largest demographic drop since 1968.Some more details: according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, Japan’s total population was 123,802,000, as of October 1, 2024, down by 550,000 or a 0.44% year-on-year decrease.The population of only Japanese citizens was 120,296,000, plunging by 898,000, or a 0.74% YoY drop.The IMF projects that the total population will shrink by a further 3.5 million by the end of the decade.The natural population decline, calculated by subtracting births from deaths, reached a record high of 890,000, rising for the eighteenth year running. This decline was 437,000 for women and 453,000 for men. The silver lining: for the third straight year, there was a net increase in immigration, with 340,000 more people entering than leaving Japan. Which is good news for globalists: if they are so worried where to put all those African and Middle Eastern refugees who have swept across Europe sparking unprecedented blowback against establishment politics, there is always Japan... assuming the locals accept the flood of foreigners.The data underscore the country's unprecedented demographic crisis amid a rapidly aging society and collapsing birthrate.Japan's total fertility rate -- the average number of children a woman bears in her lifetime -- fell to its lowest level in 2023 since records began in 1947, while the death/birth ratio at over 2.2, is the highest on record.The figures, released by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, show that only Tokyo and neighboring Saitama prefecture registered population increases.By age group, the working population, consisting of people aged 15 to 64, stood at 73,728,000, a year-on-year decrease of 224,000, while the population aged 65 or older (red and orange in the figure below) increased by 17,000 to 36,243,000. Those 75 or older (red) increased by 700,000, to 20,777,000, and this age bracket now accounts for 57.3% of those aged 65 or older.In response to the demographic crisis, the Japanese parliament passed a law in June 2024 aimed at reversing the falling birthrate. Measures under the law include expanded child allowances and enhanced parental leave benefits.And beginning this month, the city government of Tokyo started offering its employees a four-day workweek, hoping to increase the population and create a healthier work-life balance in a country notorious for long hours at the office.Officials have warned that the period leading up to 2030 represents a critical window to address the trend. Late marriages, financial insecurity, and limited support for working parents are commonly cited as contributing factors. Tyler DurdenSun, 04/20/2025 - 22:45

U.S. President Donald Trump again called for Powell to cut rates. CNBC survey shows growing disapproval of how Trump’s handling the economy. The People’s Bank of China keeps its loan prime rates steady. China vows to retaliate against any country that makes a deal with the U.S. to isolate Beijing. Economic activity might “fall off” in summer, Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee said. The Trump administration could overhaul the U.S. State Department. Tesla and Alphabet are announcing first-quarter earnings this week.An independent central bank is seen by most (including this newsletter) as the bedrock of a functional economy. Officials steer the economy by calibrating the benchmark interest rate on which bank loans and mortgages, among other debt, are based.Corporations and consumers, in general, like low interest rates because the cost of borrowing is cheaper. The former is incentivized to expand and invest, which, in turn, tend to increase income and spending among the latter. But such behavior can overheat the economy, causing prices to shoot up.U.S. President Donald Trump’s repeated calls for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates might make businesses and people happy — at the cost of letting inflation run rampant again. Factor in Trump’s tariffs, which are taxes on imports and hence fundamentally price increases, and inflation could be getting two shots in the arm.That’s why central bankers tend to operate independently from the government. An administration that aims to please the populace might cut rates despite high inflation, leading to further economic difficulties.It’s a relief markets in the U.S. and Europe were on a break for the Good Friday holiday when Trump made his comments.What you need to know todayTrump again calls for Powell to cut ratesU.S. President Donald Trump said Friday that “if we had a Fed Chairman that understood what he was doing, interest rates would be coming down, too.” The White House said Friday that officials are assessing whether they can remove the Fed chair. This is not the first time Trump has criticized Powell’s approach to U.S. monetary policy.Growing disapproval of Trump’s economic handlingAccording to a CNBC survey of 1,000 Americans, 55% of respondents disapproved of Trump’s handling of the economy, the first time in any CNBC poll that he has been net negative on the economy while president. More Americans now believe the economy will get worse than at any time since 2023, and they are sharply more pessimistic about the stock market, according to survey results.China keeps interest rates steadyAsia-Pacific markets were mixed Monday. Japan’s Nikkei 225 lost roughly 1.3%. However, mainland China’s CSI 300 added around 0.3% as the People’s Bank of China kept its loan prime rates unchanged. The 1-year LPR currently stands at 3.1% and the 5-year rate is at 3.6%. Economists polled by Reuters had expected this outcome, which suggests the PBOC is prioritizing the stability of the yuan over stimulating the economy.Beijing vows ‘reciprocal countermeasures’ China’s Ministry of Commerce warned on Monday that Beijing firmly opposes any party reaching a deal at the expense of China’s interests. If this happens, China will not accept it and will resolutely take reciprocal countermeasures,” according to a CNBC translation. The Trump administration is reportedly planning to use tariff negotiations to pressure U.S. partners into curtailing their dealings with China. U.S economic activity might ‘fall off’ in summerThe U.S. economy could be experiencing an elevated level of activity now as shoppers and businesses stock up on goods before tariffs kick in, Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee said Sunday. “Activity might look artificially high in the initial, and then by the summer, might fall off — because people have bought it all.” Sectors most affected include the auto industry and electric components, Goolsbee said.Executive order to overhaul State DepartmentThe Trump administration could soon roll out sweeping changes to the U.S. State Department, according to a 16-page draft executive order obtained by CNBC. If enacted, the order would shutter American embassies across Southern Africa, eliminate bureaus that work on issues like democracy and human rights, as well as international organizations like the United Nations.[PRO] Earnings might displace tariffs as focusMarket gyrations because of Trump tariffs might be subdued — but not entirely subside — this week, according to strategists.

The U.S. Commerce Department said last week that it would require export licenses for Nvidia’s H20 graphics processing units in a move that has halted the product’s sale to China. The move is expected to boost demand for Chinese companies like Huawei as they seek to provide a domestic alternative to Nvidia.As the U.S. tightens controls on Nvidia’s sales to China, the country’s rising domestic artificial intelligence chipmakers like Huawei stand to benefit, semiconductor analysts say. The Commerce Department said last week that Nvidia’s H20 graphics processing units — designed to comply with previous U.S. restrictions — would now require export licenses, as would additional chips from AMD. Nvidia says it has already halted exports of the GPUs, resulting in a quarterly charge of approximately $5.5 billion. But the American AI darling’s loss could be a gain for China’s local AI chip players as China continues to search for its own Nvidia alternative, semiconductor analysts told CNBC. “There are several local Chinese companies that produce chips to compete with Nvidia,” said Brady Wang, associate director at Counterpoint Research. Examples of these local AI chipmakers include tech powerhouse Huawei and the partially state-owned and publicly listed Cambricon Technologies, which designs GPUs. Shares of Cambricon were up over 10% in the past five trading days amid news of the latest Nvidia controls. The stock is up over 400% in the past 12 months. These local competitors now have greater impetus and opportunity to grow and improve their solutions, Wang said, adding that he expects that demand for their GPUs will increase.Can China fill the gap?Analysts pointed to Huawei as a clear leader in China’s race to find a Nvidia competitor. The U.S.-blacklisted company has been working on its own “Ascend 910” GPU series, the latest of which is reportedly the Ascend 910C.“With NVIDIA’s H20 and other advanced GPUs restricted, domestic alternatives like Huawei’s Ascend series are gaining traction,” said Doug O’Laughlin, an industry analyst at independent semiconductor research company SemiAnalysis.A recent report from SemiAnalysis states that although Huawei remains “a generation behind in chips,” the company is “making waves” with the hardware that uses them.“While there are still gaps in software maturity and overall ecosystem readiness, hardware performance is closing in fast,” O’Laughlin added. However, experts note that export controls have also hindered China’s ability to produce advanced GPUs at the same scale that Nvidia can through contract chipmakers like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, the world’s largest contract chip maker.“Huawei has shown to be a competitive fabless chip designer ... but they struggle to find enough supply from their foundries,” said Phelix Lee, a semiconductor-focused equity analyst for Morningstar. Because TSMC’s chipmaking equipment includes U.S. technology, the company has complied with U.S. trade restrictions on Huawei and the shipment of advanced chips to China. That has left Chinese companies increasingly reliant on domestic foundries like Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation.Nevertheless, SMIC is under its own export controls, which prevents it from accessing some of the world’s most advanced chipmaking equipment.Given those conditions, Lee said, he remains “very skeptical” that Chinese chip foundries would be able to supply enough H20 GPU alternatives to meet the demand of Chinese tech companies anytime soon.Are export controls working?However, experts say that Chinese chip makers won’t need to immediately fill this H20 demand thanks to stockpiles and previous export exemptions and loopholes. Last month, the Information reported that Chinese companies had placed orders for at least $16 billion in H20 server chips in the first three months of the year. Nvidia did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment.According to Counterpoint’s Wang, it’s unclear how long different firms’ existing stockpiles will last, but they provide Chinese chipmakers more time to scale up their GPU manufacturing. In the short term, “I believe the impact of the controls is limited ... In the middle to longer term, it will depend on the progress of this local GPU development,” he said. Meanwhile, according to the SemiAnalysis report, Huawei’s Ascend chip shows how China’s export controls have failed to stop firms like Huawei from accessing critical foreign tools and sub-components needed for advanced GPUs. “While the Ascend chip can be fabricated at SMIC, this is a global chip that has HBM from Korea, primary wafer production from TSMC, and is fabricated by 10s of billions of wafer fabrication equipment from the US, Netherlands, and Japan,” the report said.The SemiAnalysis report added that SMIC’s production capacity has the potential to grow massively, given continued access to foreign tools and the lack of effective sanctions and enforcement.TSMC is reportedly under investigation by the U.S. Department of Commerce after a chip it made for the China-based Sophgo matched one found in Huawei’s Ascend 910B artificial intelligence processor. Given Huawei’s GPU progress and reports of export control workarounds, a number of experts have expressed doubt that U.S. export controls on Nvidia will achieve their intended purpose. “U.S. controls on GPUs and semiconductor manufacturing equipment have primarily damaged US companies, including Nvidia, while having marginal impact on the ability of Chinese companies to develop frontier AI models,” said Paul Triolo, partner and senior vice president for China at DGA Group.Instead, export controls have encouraged the Chinese semiconductor industry to become more innovative while “designing out U.S. technology,” he added.Next month, Nvidia may face additional restrictions on what it can export, under “AI diffusion rules” first proposed by the Biden administration.
Spoilers follow for The Last of Us season two, episodes one and twoHBO’s The Last of Us showed viewers in season one that it would lean heavily on the source video games for major plot points and general direction of the season while expanding on the universe, and season two has followed that to the most extreme end possible. Episode two sees Tommy and Maria lead the town of Jackson Hole against a massive wave of Infected, the likes of which we haven’t seen in the show (or video games) yet. This was a complete invention for the show, one that gives the episode Game of Thrones vibes, or calls to mind a battle like the siege of Helm’s Deep in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. It’s epic in scale, with the overmatched defenders showing their skill and bravery against overwhelming odds; there is loss and pain but the good guys eventually triumph.That mass-scale battle is paired with the most intimate and brutal violence we’ve seen in the entire series so far, as Joel’s actions finally catch up with him. His death at the hands of Abby and her crew of ex-Fireflies from Seattle is truly upsetting, even if you know it is coming — and that in the twisted world that Joel and Abby inhabit, it was a form of “justice.”Of course, it was pretty obvious after the first five minutes of episode one that this is where Abby’s journey would take her, but it sure happened fast. You could say the same thing about when Joel dies in the video game, but ever since the HBO series was announced I’ve been wondering about just how Craig Mazin would choose to tackle the events of the second game and Joel’s death. Part of me wondered if we wouldn’t know for sure Joel was dead until near the end of the season, or if we might not find out Abby’s motivations until much later. But after two episodes, we know that Abby’s dad was the doctor Joel killed at the end of season one to save Ellie, a fact that makes her disturbing lust for vengeance more understandable to the television audience. In the game, on the other hand, players didn’t find that out until much later — a move that cast Abby in the role of "villain" that made Ellie’s own desire for revenge more relatable for the playerPhotograph by Liane Hentscher/HBOBut what works in a game doesn't necessarily work in a more passive adaptation. I do think there was a way for the writers to save the full reveal for Abby’s motivations for later, but I didn’t really bump on how things played out here. Similarly, I wasn’t really bothered by the introduction to Abby’s crew and her desire to find Joel that happened at the beginning of the season premiere. But I do know a number of people who played the game feel like this has robbed the show of some mystery and changed the momentum in a way that didn’t work for them, and I can appreciate that argument.For anyone who hasn’t played the games, though, I’m sure that seeing the co-lead character killed off in the second episode of the season was a bit of a shock, no matter how much it was hinted at — particularly after Joel went out of his way to save Abby from certain death. In another world, you could imagine that blunting her need for revenge, or at least having her forgo the extended torture of a helpless Joel. But she’s clearly captivated by the opportunity in a way that even her friends are a bit horrified by. Ellie being there to find Dina unconscious and then forced to watch Abby deliver the final blow is the cherry on the disaster sundae that is this episode. It’s even harder to swallow when you consider their last interaction was Ellie’s extreme rebuff of Joel at the dance the night before.Photograph by Liane Hentscher/HBOIt’s truly a wild choice for such a high-profile show, even though there was nowhere else for it to go. Pedro Pascal has been everywhere the last few years, and The Last of Us could have been his signature role. Joel’s death doesn’t fully diminish that, but obviously even if we see him in flashbacks in this season and the next, it won’t be the same as him leading an episode. To let such a marketable and popular star go must have been a tough pill for HBO to swallow, though chances are that the network knew from the beginning of negotiations that would have to happen. Regardless, it’s a move up there with the death of Sean Bean’s Ned Stark in terms of subverting audience expectations about who is going to lead the show going forward. That’ll fall to Bella Ramsey for the rest of the season.I will say that Mazin and director Mark Mylod did a great job of balancing the many stories and cast members in this episode. Kaitlyn Dever gets her first extended amount of screen time and captures Abby’s barely-contained ferocity in a way that feels like a great tribute to the game source material, despite the fact that she is not nearly as physically ripped as Abby is in the game. Her scenes with Joel and Dina are absolutely chilling, even before she has Joel on the ropes; big credit to Pascal and Isabela Merced, again, for showing a major range of emotions as they help Abby escape from the Infected only to be betrayed.Kaitlyn Dever in HBO's The Last of UsPhotograph by Liane Hentscher/HBORamsey, meanwhile, shares a lot of time with Young Mazino’s Jesse as they go on patrol and frantically search for Joel; back in Jackson, Gabriella Luna and Rutina Wesley as Tommy and Maria keep Jackson from falling to the Infected. It’s a lot of threads to tie together, and the fact that this episode includes the biggest battle we’ve ever seen as well as Joel’s capture and death without feeling overstuffed is a testament to the writers, directors and cast.Speaking of that Infected battle, I wasn’t fully sold on it when I saw teases in the trailers for this season, but it was a thrilling delight. I loved seeing the preparations Jackson put into place, like the oil barrels coming down from the walls and the flamethrower brigade surrounded by snipers up on the buildings. Of course, all the best-planned defenses fail once the Infected get through the wall and all hell breaks loose, and the show successfully had me questioning whether the town would make it even though the idea of it fully falling seemed like a deviation too far from the game. It definitely felt like a response to the criticisms of a relative lack of Infected action in season one, but it worked, and the juxtaposition of the disaster befalling Jackson at large as well as the smaller-scale loss of one of its most important citizens added another layer to the grief.Infected Score: 11/10The showrunners say season two will have more Infected than season one — let’s see if they’re sticking to their word.Tommy taking down a Bloater with a flamethrower in front of a Mailboxes Etc. store? Barrels of oil lighting a field of Infected on fire? The extremely creepy reveal of the “live” Infected buried and laying in wait under a field of frozen ones that emerged and chased Abby right into the path of Joel? Jackson’s guard dogs coming to the rescue to keep the horde from overtaking the town? This was the most epic action we’ve seen out of the show yet, on a scale that we didn’t get in the games. It’ll be hard to top this battle.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/tv-movies/the-last-of-us-season-two-through-the-valley-recap-well-that-happened-020017596.html?src=rss

The Family Home: From Shelter To Asset To Liability Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog,The deflation of asset bubbles and higher costs are foreseeable, but the magnitude of each is unpredictable.With the rise of financialized asset bubbles as the source of our "growth," family home went from shelter to speculative asset. This transition accelerated as financialization (turning everything into a financial commodity to be leveraged and sold globally for a quick profit) spread into the once-staid housing sector in the early 2000s. (See chart of housing bubbles #1 and #2 below).Where buying a home once meant putting down roots and insuring a stable cost of shelter, housing became a speculative asset to be snapped up and sold as prices soared.The short-term vacation rental (STVR) boom added fuel to the speculative fire over the past decade as huge profits could be generated by assembling an STVR mini-empire of single-family homes that were now rented to tourists.Now that housing has become unaffordable to the majority and the costs of ownership are stair-stepping higher, housing has become a liability. I covered the increases in costs of ownership in The Cost of Owning a Home Is Soaring 11/11/24). Articles like this one are increasingly common:'I feel trapped': how home ownership has become a nightmare for many Americans: Scores in the US say they're grappling with raised mortgage and loan interest rates and exploding insurance premiums.The sums of money now required to own, insure and maintain a house are eye-watering. Annual home insurance for many is now a five-figure sum; property taxes in many states is also a five-figure sum. As for maintenance, as I discussed in This Nails It: The Doom Loop of Housing Construction Quality, the decline in quality of housing and the rising costs of repair make buying a house a potentially unaffordable venture should repairs costing tens of thousands of dollars become necessary.Major repairs can now cost what previous generations paid for an entire house, and no, this isn't just inflation; it's the result of the decline of quality across the board and the gutting of labor skills to cut costs.Here's the Case-Shiller Index of national housing prices. Housing Bubble #2 far exceeds the extremes of unaffordability reached in Housing Bubble #1:Here's a snapshot of housing affordability: buying a house is now an unattainable luxury for those without top 20% incomes and help from parents.The monthly payments as a percentage of income are at historic highs:Property taxes are rising in many locales as valuations bubble higher and local governments seek sources of stable revenues:Home insurance costs vary widely, but all are skewing to the upside.As I often note, the insurance industry is not a charity, and to maintain profits as payouts for losses explode higher, rates have to climb for everyone--and more for those in regions that are now viewed as high-risk due to massive losses in fires, hurricanes, wind storms, flooding, etc.All credit-asset bubbles pop, and that inevitable deflation of home valuations will take away the speculative punchbowl. What's left are the costs of ownership. As these rise, they offset the rich capital gains that home owners have been counting on for decades to make ownership a worthwhile, low-risk investment.The deflation of asset bubbles and higher costs are foreseeable, but the magnitude of each is unpredictable. The ideas that have taken hold in the 21st century--that owning a house is a wellspring of future wealth, and everything is now a throwaway destined for the landfill--are based on faulty assumptions, assumptions that have set a banquet of consequences few will find palatable.* * *Become a $3/month patron of my work via patreon.com.Subscribe to my Substack for free Tyler DurdenSun, 04/20/2025 - 10:30

Biden Judge Blocks Trump's Order Ending 'X' Gender Marker On Passports Authored by T.J. Muscaro via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),A federal judge ruled against the Trump administration’s executive order banning the use of an “X” on passports marked by people self-identifying as neither male nor female.AliaksaB/ShutterstockU.S. District Judge Julia Kobick of the District Court of Massachusetts - who in 2017 was part of a legal team that sued the Trump administration over an ACA provision and has been a judge less than 18 months, awarded the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) a preliminary injunction on April 18, staying the president’s executive action requiring sex, instead of gender identity, to be used as an identifier on government-issued identification documents.The executive order titled “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government” was one of several signed by President Donald Trump on his first day in office.“It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female,” the order stated. ”These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality.”The order stated that gender identity “reflects a fully internal and subjective sense of self, disconnected from biological reality and sex and existing on an infinite continuum, that does not provide a meaningful basis for identification and cannot be recognized as a replacement for sex.”U.S. District Judge Julia KobickIt ordered the secretaries of State and Homeland Security, and the director of the Office of Personnel Management to “implement changes to require that government-issued identification documents, including passports, visas, and Global Entry cards, accurately reflect the holder’s sex.”It also ordered the rescinding of prior federal guidance documents, including “The White House Toolkit on Transgender Equality.”The ACLU took legal action against the order on behalf of five plaintiffs who identify as transgender and two who identify as nonbinary, seeking to preserve the pro-LGBT policies put in place under President Joe Biden, allowing a third option on identification documents.“We all have a right to accurate identity documents, and this policy invites harassment, discrimination, and violence against transgender Americans who can no longer obtain or renew a passport that matches who they are,” ACLU lawyer Sruti Swaminathan said in a statement.The Trump administration argued that the president had broad discretion in setting the passport policy, and those policy changes did not “violate the equal protection guarantees of the Constitution.” The federal government also denied any harm befalling the plaintiffs due to the policy, since they were still free to travel abroad.The judge said the administration didn’t demonstrate substantial government interests in changing the rule.“The Executive Order and the Passport Policy on their face classify passport applicants on the basis of sex and thus must be reviewed under intermediate judicial scrutiny,” Kobick wrote. “That standard requires the government to demonstrate that its actions are substantially related to an important governmental interest. The government has failed to meet this standard.”Stacy Robinson and The Associated Press contributed to this report. Tyler DurdenSat, 04/19/2025 - 22:10

A Visual Breakdown Of Who Owns America's Wealth There are two types of households in the U.S.: the rich half and the poorer half.And the data is quite striking in this regard.This graphic, via Visual Capitalist's Pallavi Rao, breaks down America’s wealth (the total net worth of all U.S. households) by wealth percentile, and lists the number of households in each percentile.Data for this chart is sourced from the Federal Reserve as of Q3, 2024.U.S. Wealth Distribution is Top HeavyFor reference, the total net worth of all U.S. households is close to $160 trillion.The rich half own about $156 trillion (or about 98% of it). The poorer half only own about $4 trillion.Breaking down that top half even further, the top 1% (1.3 million families) owns about $49 trillion (or about one-third of the total share) by themselves.And going even further, about half of that $49 trillion is owned by the top 0.1%. That’s only around 136,000 households and includes all of America’s wealthiest people.Demographics of Wealth BandsThe Federal Reserve also has some insight of how much one needs to own in each wealth band.From their last analysis in 2022, households with less than $192,000 were the bottom 50% of the country. This band also had a higher concentration Black or Hispanic families without a bachelor’s degree.On the other hand, to be in the top 10% (not pictured in this graphic), a household needed at least $1.92 million in 2022. Asian and White families with at least a bachelor’s degree were overrepresented here.To find out the threshold for the top 1%, a different source, DQYDJ, estimated $13.7 million as the minimum household wealth. It takes $62 million for a household’s net worth to be in the top 0.1%.The rich are, in fact, growing richer. Check out: The 1%’s Share of U.S. Wealth Over Time to see the gains made.

Originally appeared on E! Online.Serena Williams needs to step off the court. The retired tennis champion confessed to needing a quick break from parenting her 7-year-old daughter Olympia, who she shares with husband of seven years Alexis Ohanian. “I’m in my car.... my Navigator To be exact,” Williams wrote in an April 18 message on X (formerly Twitter). “I’ve got the Massage seats on. I’m sadly Hiding from my kid.”The 43-year-old — who also shares 20-month-old daughter Adira with Alexis — had been on mom duty all day since, as she noted, “Today is a holiday and no school.”And she had no regrets about admitting to sneaking away from her little one. In fact, she was prepared to take on any criticism she might receive for the confession.“Judge away,” Williams quipped. “I don’t care I need 10 mins.”Another reason the athlete isn’t worried about facing backlash? She’s confident in her parenting skills.

I really am. I do everything. I’m freaking the room mom at Olympia’s school this year.”Of course, that’s not to say she doesn’t have her off days. In 2023, Williams got candid about her mental health struggles, admitting that she was facing a period where she was “not OK.”“And that’s ok to not be ok,” she continued in a post on X at the time. “No one is ok every single day. If you are not ok today I’m with you.”She added, “There’s always tomorrow. Love you.”Luckily, Williams has a strong support system behind her in her husband and her friends, including pal Meghan Markle, who often trades cooking and home-making tips with the tennis player.“I’m always like, ‘Girl, what are you doing today?’” Williams said of the Duchess of Sussex inside of Time’s 100 Most Influential People issue published April 15. “So we’re trading recipes.”PHOTOS: Serena Williams, Olympia

It is weighing on the entire supply chain, from farmers and traders to confectionery giants and small chocolatiers alike.While prices have stabilized this year, they are still well above historic averages at $7,750 a ton, and analysts warn that there is little relief on the horizon.Turmoil In West Africa – Poor Weather, Crop Failures & FloodsThe world produces nearly 6 million tonnes of cocoa beans each year, with two-thirds of them coming from the West African nations of Ghana and Ivory Coast. Starting with the 2022-23 cocoa season, however, the region has been hit by a perfect storm of floods, crop failures, and shifting weather patterns.According to the International Cocoa Association, the global market has faced three consecutive years of deficit, the latest being a 150,000 tonne deficit during the 2024-25 season. Following devastating floods that wiped out key growing regions, the extra dry Harmattan season roasted the cocoa pods, according to a report by ING Group analysts. Harmattan refers to dusty easterly or north-easterly winds on the West African coast that prevail between December to February. To make matters worse, nearly 600,000 hectares of the 1.4 million hectares of land in Ghana that is under cocoa production has been infected with Swollen Foot Virus, which affects cocoa trees, harming their yield, and ultimately killing them, according to Reuters.Chart representing Cocoa prices in USD per Tonne: source: tradingeconomics.comEven as the dust ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

Here's How Gas Pipelines & Seized Russian Assets Could Give The US Lots Of Leverage Over The EU Authored by Andrew Korybko via Substack,US control over the trans-Ukrainian and Nord Stream pipelines could incentivize the EU into concessions on their trade war while whatever seized Russian assets that the US obtains legal ownership of from Moscow could serve to justify ramping up pressure on the bloc in this context.Reuters reported earlier in the month that the latest version of Trump’s resource deal with Ukraine includes an “Easter egg” giving the US’ International Development Finance Corporation control over its international gas pipeline between Russia and the EU. This prompted another report from Reuters alleging that French and German firms are open to the possibility of resuming imports via that route. These reports collectively suggest that the US wants to control Russia’s pipeline gas exports to Europe.The triple rationale behind doing so would be to obtain further leverage over the EU amidst their trade war, buoy its struggling economy if a deal is reached so that it’s a more stable market for American exports, and incentivize Russia into agreeing to a ceasefire by restoring some of this lost revenue. In furtherance of this goal, the US might also try to obtain control over the four Nord Stream pipelines, the scenario of which was analyzed here and here.While control over the Kiev-owned Ukrainian pipeline could be obtained via Trump’s resource deal with Ukraine, which might require forcing Zelensky to form a government of national unity if he doesn’t agree to this on his own, different means would have to be employed for the Russian-owned Nord Streams. Hypothetically returning the estimated $5 billion of seized Russian assets under American jurisdiction wouldn’t suffice for replacing the nearly $20 billion that Nord Stream 1 and 2 cost in total.The additional $15 billion (or more if Russia demands such and the US agrees) could be obtained by pressuring the EU into releasing that amount of seized Russian assets under its jurisdiction. If the EU refuses, then Russia and the US could agree to a creative financial arrangement whereby Russia transfers legal ownership of this sum to the US, the US transfers this same amount to Russia, then Trump weaponizes the $15 billion of newly US-owned assets under EU jurisdiction as a chip in their trade war.This formula could also be utilized by them for facilitating Russia’s reportedly requested purchase of Boeing jets that Bloomberg recently claimed that it suggested buying with some of those seized assets. Taken to its extreme, the estimated $300 billion worth of total assets that the West seized from Russia could be transferred to the US via these means for large-scale purchases across a slew of industries that would solidify the strategic economic partnership that they want to forge in the post-conflict era.White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt recently said that “There is an incentive for Russia to end this war and perhaps that could be economic partnerships with the United States” so this could be the means to that end. Russia has also made do without those assets and doesn’t expect them to be returned in full, perhaps not even at all despite official rhetoric to the contrary, which is why this would be the most mutually beneficial use of them in the context of the nascent Russian-US “New Détente”.The creative energy diplomacy and financial arrangements that were proposed in this analysis would give the US lots of leverage over the EU. They’d correspondingly result in control over most Russian pipeline gas imports for incentivizing the EU into concessions on their trade war while whatever seized Russian assets that the US obtains legal ownership of from Moscow could serve to justify ramping up pressure on the bloc in this context. The Trump Administration should therefore seriously consider this. Tyler DurdenSat, 04/19/2025 - 10:30

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."-Dr. Martin Luther King in his 1963 “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”Those magic words were written 62 years ago today and still echo like thunder across our charred American countryside as a madman and his morally corrupt henchmen in the Republican Party try to burn everything to the ground.These words are as true today as they were then, and there is victory in honoring them. Just as we were six decades ago, and six decades ago before that ... we are a country capable of producing great men like King, and rudderless deviants like Trump. Visionaries like Lincoln, and stone-cold bigots like Lee ...I’m afraid this will never change, my friends, because six decades from now when Trump is long extinct, evil will once again grow out of the muck and mire, and good men and women will fight from the sturdy foundation of what is good and right to put it down.King’s words endured, and speak to us all six decades later. Trump’s words land like slop on some pavement, and mean nothing six seconds after he’s said them.One man possessed depth, vision, and courage, and was guided by a north star hanging high in the sky leading us to a place where all men are created equal. The other man is a coward, who has been blinded by a terminal case of hate, and has the singular ability to always go lower no matter what.One man spoke for the good and righteous, the other for himself, and the morally weakest among us. Today, I am not here to tell you what is wrong in this country — we’ve heard about enough of that — I am here to tell you all that is right.You are right. I am right. I am not going anywhere. Are you ...?The good and righteous aren’t quitters and have done nothing but fight for what is most certainly right in this country since her inception. Elected presidents not kings. Voting rights for all, women’s rights, social programs that benefit everybody, environmental protections, and countless other good deeds and ideals that are just too damn long to list here. Countless hundreds of thousands of Americans have given their lives on foreign battlefields because injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Evil men must be stopped in their tracks when they gas and incinerate people. Evil men must be stopped in their tracks when they pack up innocent people in the dark of night and send them off to perish in dirty jails ... And while the good and righteous have been knocked down through the centuries, we have always pulled ourselves back up, and together have risen to our feet — stronger for the battle.Evil is never going away, good people. This is both terribly sad, and easier to deal with in the knowing ...When we won the rights for women in the ‘70s, evil didn't get up and leave town. It lingered ... bided its time ... drooled in the darkness ... readied itself to pounce on us again.When Hitler was finally stopped in his bloody tracks, evil didn't get up and go away — it once again waited to have its way with a moral weakling like Trump to get on with its hideous, never-ending mission.Sure, life would be easier if everybody would just finally see the light, but there is just too much to be gained by the few by keeping the many in the dark. Today I am telling you that the sun is slowly rising across America after setting in 2016. It is a never-ending revolution of an unsteady nation confirmed by a history the purveyors of evil would rather you didn’t read.We should shout this out. The good and righteous are stepping into the accelerating light. They are making their voices heard and their votes count. They are dragging our politicians into that light and making them account for their actions — good and bad.When I read King’s words again this morning, they filled me with strength, and a righteous fury.He would have wanted us all to stand on his shoulders and reach for the sky.He would have wanted us all to keep fighting for all who bled, and sweat, and cried for what is right before us.He would have wanted us all to stay strong so that the generations who will follow, will have a sturdy platform that they, too, can stand on while they fight for what is most certainly right, and reach even higher toward King’s north star.I am telling you today that victory is in the trying, and as long as we are trying we will never be defeated.NOW READ: It's already begun: History offers an ominous lesson about economic crashes D.

RuneScape: Dragonwilds' combat is a brutal battlefield filled with fierce goblins, savage beasts, and relentless dragons. Survival demands quick reflexes and powerful weaponry. Luckily, the right gear can tip the odds in your favor. Let's explore the best weapons to dominate the dangers lurking in RuneScape: Dragonwilds.What are the best weapons you can use in RS: Dragonwilds?Many of the best weapons in RuneScape: Dragonwilds involve completing a side quest that often consists of fighting against a formidable beast. Alternatively, you can craft them by gathering a multitude of items around the map. So, without further ado, here's a look at the best of the best weapons.Chieftan's BladeScreenshot by DestructoidType: One-handed Melee WeaponPower Level: 3Damage: 29-52Attack Combo: 5Block: 19.5Special Action: Special Attack How to get: Obtain the recipe at the top of the Fractured Plains and craft itFor those in search of a standout starter weapon, the Chieftain's Blade offers a unique option, and you can unlock its recipe while hunting for the Crystal Bow. Crafted from Antlers, Copper Bar, and Bones, its ingredients are simple to gather, making it one of the best early-game weapons in RuneScape: Dragonwilds. With damage output far surpassing that of your starting tools, it's clear why this blade once belonged to a fearsome Goblin Chieftain.Abyssal WhipScreenshot by DestructoidType: One-handed Melee WeaponPower Level: 4Damage: 46-86Bleed Build Up: 25Attack Combo: 5Block: 5Special Action: Abyssal SnareHow to get: Defeat the Abyssal Demon and craft it The legendary Abyssal Whip reignites its dominance in Dragonwilds, reaffirming its place as a weapon of unmatched power. With lightning-fast strikes and its Abyssal Snare ability to trap enemies in their tracks, this iconic weapon proves its might once again. However, obtaining it won't be easy, as players must confront one of the game's most formidable foes.Iron SwordScreenshot by DestructoidType: One-handed Melee weaponPower Level: 4Damage: 45-82Attack Combo: 5Block: 23Special Action: Special AttackHow to get: CraftingNot every weapon requires a lengthy side quest, and the Iron Sword is a perfect example of this. While you can earn it the traditional way by working your way up from Stone to Bronze, there's a shortcut with the powerful Rocksplosion ability. The Iron Sword is one of my favorites, offering impressive damage, durability, and lightning-fast strikes. However, if you're looking for an alternative iron ore creation, you can opt for the brutal mace or the mighty warhammer, each with its own unique destructive potential.Crystal BowScreenshot by DestructoidType: Ranged WeaponPower Level: 3Arrow Damage: x3.45Special Action: ShattershotHow to get: Heartstrings quest or craftingWood-based bows are a solid choice early on in your RuneScape: Dragonwilds journey, but the Crystal Bow easily steals the spotlight. Its real power lies in its Shattershot ability, which embeds enemies with volatile crystal shards that detonate in a burst of damage. Its high arrow damage gives you a serious edge in ranged combat, letting you control the battlefield from afar.Staff of LightScreenshot by DestructoidType: Two-handed Magic WeaponPower Level: 4Rune Damage: x4.5 Attack Combo: 4How to get: Highlighting the Problem quest and craftingIf magic is more your style than weapon combat, the Staff of Light is a must-have for your arsenal. Channel the raw power of the elements and unleash devastating damage upon your foes. According to its lore, those who wield this ancient staff are granted enhanced resilience, allowing them to survive longer in the heat of battle.There are undoubtedly more top-tier weapons waiting to be discovered in RuneScape: Dragonwilds. As I continue my journey through the game, I'll be on the lookout for even more powerful options to add to this guide.The post Best weapons in RuneScape: Dragonwilds appeared first on Destructoid.

What we learned about Andor season 2 at Star Wars Celebration 2025
Bovard Warns Conservatives, Libertarians Over Foreign Student Persecution Cases Authored by Jim Bovard"If it is known that authorities have power to coerce, few people will wait for actual coercion," economist Friedrich Hayek wrote in the 1956 foreword to his 1944 classic, The Road to Serfdom. Hayek’s insight could be the Rosetta Stone for understanding the Trump administration’s censorship zealotry.On March 25, six masked federal agents seized a Turkish graduate student on the streets of Somerville, Massachusetts. Rumeysa Ozturk—who was wearing a hijab—was a Fulbright scholar working on a doctorate at Tufts University. Ozturk was snatched up because she co-authored a student newspaper op-ed a year earlier that criticized Israel, as I discussed here on March 31 (“First They Came for the Op-Ed Writers”).Secretary of State Marco Rubio denounced Ozturk as a "lunatic" and implied she was guilty of participating “in movements that vandalize universities, harass students, take over buildings, and cause chaos.” Ozturk was shuffled between detention facilities before being taken to Louisiana. A federal judge blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to deport her without any judicial proceedings.Ozturk’s student visa was secretly revoked several days before she was taken into custody. Did the Trump administration want a high-profile incident in order to deter any other students from writing op-eds or from protesting Middle East policies?On Sunday night, the Washington Post detonated the Trump case against Ozturk by publishing extracts from a confidential State Department memo. Prior to Ozturk being seized outside of Boston, senior DHS official Andre Watson sent a memo to the State Department stating that, “OZTURK engaged in anti-Israel activism... Specifically, [Ozturk] co-authored an op-ed article” that “called for Tufts to ‘disclose its investments and divest from companies with direct or indirect ties to Israel.’”But the State Department found that no federal agency had turned up any evidence that Ozturk “engaged in antisemitic activity or made public statements indicating support for a terrorist organization.” Despite Rubio’s vilification of Ozturk, the feds didn’t have squat on her.DHS wanted Ozturk expelled from the US under a provision in the Immigration and Nationality Act that entitles the Secretary of State to deport any foreigner if there are reasonable grounds to believe their presence has “adverse policy consequence for the United States.” But there was no such evidence for Ozturk, so the Trump administration instead used a legal authority under which the Secretary of State can deport anyone on his own decree—no evidence required.Because of her op-ed criticizing Israel, Ozturk vanished into the federal detention system, moved from state to state so the Trump administration could avoid a habeas petition in federal court challenging her detention. She was forced to wear leg shackles and a chain around her waist. She has asthma and had several attacks so far in lockup. At the South Louisiana ICE Processing Center in Basile, she sleeps with 23 other people in a cell meant for 14. “None of us are able to sleep through the night. They come into the cell often and walk around triggering the fluorescent lights. They shout in the cell to wake up those who work in the kitchen around 3:30 am each day,” she said. Ozturk stated that a federal officer told her: “We are not monsters. We do what the government tells us.” So, of course, federal officials are blameless for any rights that they violate.Ozturk is one of the most high-profile seizures that Trump’s DHS has made of students who criticized Israeli policies in Gaza. Hundreds of student visas have been revoked and the Trump administration has floated proposals to prohibit all foreign students from attending American universities that fail to fully suppress criticism or protests against Israeli policies.It would be the height of folly for Americans to presume they face no peril from entitling the feds to seize boundless power to punish students’ speech. Ozturk’s name was provided to the Trump administration by Betar—an organization that the Washington Post characterized as a “militant Zionist group.” US citizens are at risk as well. A spokesman for Betar declared: “We provided hundreds of names to the Trump administration of visa holders and naturalized Middle Easterners and foreigners” who have criticized Israeli policies. The Anti-Defamation League condemned Betar as an extremist organization in February.Any precedent for blanket censorship will propagate like a covid virus. Many conservatives and libertarians may shrug off Ozturk’s degradation because they have no interest in criticizing the policies of foreign governments. But the Ozturk case hinges on collective guilt—on assuming that anyone who advocates a position is culpable for any crimes committed by any other advocate with the same view.This was the tacit doctrine that the Biden administration used to legally scourge peaceful January 6 protestors who merely “paraded without a permit” through or near the US Capitol that day. Because a minority of January 6 protestors became violent, the FBI presumed that “trespassing plus thought crimes equal terrorism,” justifying harsh sentences for anyone at the scene (except for the undercover federal agents and informants).What legal perils will pro-freedom protestors face in the coming years if the Ozturk rule is canonized, entitling federal officials to crush any disfavored opinion? Big-spending Democrats may consecrate Modern Monetary Theory and demonize anyone who criticizes the Federal Reserve. I took this “Kill the Central Bank” photo of Ron Paul supporters at a 2008 Capitol Hill event for his presidential campaign. If the same protestors had peacefully carried the same banner within a half mile of the Capitol on January 6, they likely would have been nailed on a bevy of federal charges. Many politicians have made stark their hatred of libertarians and freedom advocates. A federally-funded Fusion Center tagged Ron Paul supporters as potential terrorist suspects, and another federally-funded center sounded the alarm on anyone “reverent of individual liberty.”As long as anyone is sitting in shackles in a federal detention center simply for writing an op-ed, freedom of speech is not safe for anyone in the United States. Will Ozturk’s persecution finally wake up people too confident that “it can never happen here”? Tyler DurdenFri, 04/18/2025 - 22:30

Ukraine Energy Strike Moratorium Has Ended, Kremlin Declares The Kremlin on Friday confirmed that the US-brokered ceasefire on energy sites has effectively ended. Last month Ukraine and Russia agreed to temporarily pause all attacks against each other's energy infrastructure. Washington hailed this is as a potential key first-step toward a more comprehensive ceasefire, which has still not gotten off the ground. But both warring sides have accused the other of violating the energy site truce multiple times over, in the prior few weeks. Russia still sees the initiative as positive.The 30-day moratorium has reached its deadline, with Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov having confirmed "the month [of moratorium] has indeed expired.Via fpri.orgHe added, "As of this moment, there have been no other instructions from the supreme commander-in-chief, President Putin." The initial partial ceasefire was brokered in a phone call between Presidents Trump and Putin on March 18.Russia is leaving open the potential for another interim deal, also amid ongoing efforts to get Moscow and Kiev to the negotiating table."We believe that certain progress can already be acknowledged. This progress is related to the moratorium on not striking energy infrastructure facilities," Peskov continued. "The Russian Federation adhered to this moratorium, which cannot be said about the Ukrainian side."It's unclear the degree to which Russian airstrikes may have hit Ukraine's energy and power infrastructure over the past month, but what is clear is that huge aerial attacks have been ongoing, including the mass casualty strike on the city of Sumy days ago.Moscow has meanwhile complained that any sweeping truce deal will be hard to monitor, in terms of ensuring conformity to the terms. Putin too has said that Ukraine's military would have to be closely monitored, as any partial truce would allow it to simply rearm and regroup.For this reason, Putin has made clear that he won't agree to anything 'partial' or temporary in nature to halt the fighting. Russia wants a comprehensive truce, but this would require Ukraine giving up its four eastern territories, and Moscow also wants to see 'de-Nazification' and a change in government in Kiev. Bloomberg leaks latest US ceasefire plan."Proposal would freeze the war, with Ukrainian territories now occupied by Russia remaining under Moscow’s control. Kiev’s aspirations of joining NATO would also be off the table."No denazification, potential EU contingent in Ukraine,... pic.twitter.com/46LNWHf9or— Margarita Simonyan (@M_Simonyan) April 18, 2025All of these things remain a tall order, and Zelensky is still lashing out at the White House for engaging in talks with Moscow but without the Ukrainian government's direct input.For example, on Friday Zelensky said of US officials outlining a peace plan in Paris that Trump's representatives have no "mandate to discuss Ukrainian territories, because these territories belong to our people." He added: "We do not discuss territories until the ceasefire. We will never consider Ukrainian lands as Russian." Tyler DurdenFri, 04/18/2025 - 21:55

Happy Friday! This is a weird one, thanks to the holiday weekend and our last-minute trip to Oaxaca, here in Mexico. This will be a lot shorter than usual, but that's fine. Let's dive in!🤬 Synologisticspacecamel asks:On WW, you mentioned that you were still looking at a Synology for your storage needs. Did you see the report in Tom’s Hardware that we’re requiring to use their own drives? Another example of enshittification.I saw the headline, but since you mentioned it, I went and read up on it. And it's semi-defensible, though Synology uses Toshiba and Seagate drives, and doesn't make its own. So the worry here is that there will be some markup on Synology drives and/or that it will artificially limit feature availability based on which types of drives you have. The latter seems to be underway and the former is, well, we'll see.That said, I'm not sure whether this changes my mind on Synology per se. The value of this ecosystem is very high and while there are some other options I've considered, it's almost a no-brainer to go with Synology. I do hear you on the enshittification. But when I do get a NAS, I'll be getting new drives anyway. So having to get Synology drives is ... whatever. Assuming they work reliably, don't cost more (or, at least too much more), and are supported properly because of this requirement.Plus, I expect the feedback from the community to be overwhelmingly negative on this. A better approach would be for individuals and drive makers to assess the quality of various drives to see whether they meet whatever needs Synology has. A sort of Synology certified score/program. I'd be surprised if this didn't evolve into something like that.📺 Dreaming of streamingchristianwilson asks:My family made it clear they do not want to switch away from Fire TV, which I'm generally fine with, but I think we'd be better served with a different platform.

DHL is temporarily suspending business-to-consumer shipments over $800 destined for the U.S. starting Monday, the logistics giant told customers in an email.The suspension will apply until further notice, according to the email. Business-to-business shipments going to U.S. companies and shipments with a declarable value below $800 are not impacted.DHL said on its website that the halt is due to delays stemming from changes in U.S. trade regulations that went into effect April 5. Shipments over $800 now require formal customs processing to enter the country, down from the previous threshold of $2,500, according to the company."The changes outlined above have caused a significant increase in formal customs clearances, which we are handling around the clock," DHL said in the email to customers. "While we are working diligently to scale up and manage this increase, we are experiencing multi-day transit delays to the U.S from any origin for shipments with a declared customs value exceeding USD 800."U.S. Customs and Border Protection did not respond to a request for comment seeking more information on the threshold reduction reported by DHL.Importers have historically used Type 11 informal entry to clear sub-$2,500 goods through customs in a streamlined fashion, rather than through formal entry procedures requiring more information and documentation.Shipments below $800 have leaned on the duty free de minimis exemption instead, but that is set to end for China-based products next month, with other countries expected to follow. Experts have said informal entry could be a palatable option for shippers adjusting to the upcoming restrictions.DHL is one of several companies making changes to its shipping services amid ongoing trade turmoil, particularly between the U.S. and China. FedEx and UPS have both instituted China-to-U.S. fees, while Hong Kong's postal service will suspend all shipments of U.S.-bound items by April 27.

With the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct showcase behind us, we now know more about the console than ever before, including its release date (June 5) and price ($450). We're also keeping a close eye on how the recently-announced tariffs in the United States are affecting Nintendo's launch plans. Pre-orders in the US and Canada are now set to start on April 24.Thanks to Nintendo's January 16 teaser trailer, we've long known what the Switch 2 will look like, and that it will arrive in 2025 — over eight years after its predecessor. The Nintendo Switch 2 looks very similar to the original system, albeit with a larger display, magnetic Joy-Cons and a sleeker design. The upcoming console will be backwards compatible with Switch games.Looking to catch up on everything we know about the Switch 2? Read on.What are the key new features of the Nintendo Switch 2?Display and dockThe Nintendo Switch 2 has a 1080p 7.9-inch display with a 120Hz refresh and HDR compatibility. It also supports up to 4K output at 120Hz (with variable refresh rates) when docked.Joy-Con and Pro ControllerThe new Joy-Con 2 for Nintendo Switch 2 attaches magnetically with a button to release them. They have larger SL and SR buttons (the ones hidden when the Joy-Con are attached) to make playing multiplayer games on individual Joy-Cons more feasible. These buttons are also made of steel and attach to the Switch 2's magnets.The analog sticks are no longer tiny nubs, and are closer in size to the ones you might find on a PS5 or Xbox controller. However, they do not have Hall effect sensors, the use of which can minimize the risk of the "stick drift" issue that plagued the original Joy-Cons.The Joy-Con 2 have what Nintendo is calling “HD Rumble 2” built in, which seems to be a refinement of the original (and still very good) vibration function. Finally, each Joy-Con 2 has an optical sensor that allows you to use it as a mouse, and a C button, which we’ll get to in a minute.NintendoThe new Pro Controller for the Nintendo Switch 2 comes with everything you’d expect based on the refreshed Joy-Con 2: Namely HD Rumble 2 and the C button. There are also remappable GL/GR buttons around the back and a standard audio jack for connecting a headset.Both options come with Amiibo support built in. The Switch 2 comes with two Joy-Con 2, as you’d expect, and additional pairs are priced at $95. The Pro Controller will cost $85.The C button stands for "chat"The new C button is a dedicated way to enter a chat session with friends. As well as the standard features you’d expect from voice chat, Nintendo has built a Discord-like video-sharing feature, which lets you show your gameplay to others and see other people’s screens while you’re playing. The GameChat function works with a mic built into the console, though headsets are also supported. Nintendo will also sell a $55 camera that plugs into the USB-C port on the top of the console, which will allow you to stream your face along with your game.NintendoGameCube supportThe Switch 2 will work with GameCube games via the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack. The three titles available at launch will be F-Zero GX, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Soul Calibur II.Improved specsPerhaps the biggest feature, though, is one you can’t see: The Switch 2 has an all-new processor and GPU and significantly more storage (256GB vs 64GB in the Switch OLED), along with support for faster and more capacious microSD cards. This will obviously lead to better first-party games and upgraded Switch experiences, but more importantly it will mean multi-platform games that had to skip the original, underpowered Switch will be able to be ported over. With games like Cyberpunk 2077 coming to the Switch 2 at launch, it seems like far more ports will be feasible than on the original console.Another major improvement comes in the form of networking — the Switch 2 supports Wi-Fi 6, which will improve the original's often glacial download speeds. Similarly, the new dock sports an Ethernet port for a rock-solid connection.What's it like to play?Nintendo gave the press a chance to check out the Switch 2 and a few of the games it highlighted. You can read our impressions of Mario Kart World as well as more general thoughts on how the Switch 2 feels in person. Right off the bat, Mario Kart World feels like an outstanding launch title, with more depth and better visuals than we've ever seen from a Mario Kart game. The core formula is intact, but there are a lot of new features and play styles to dig into. As for the Switch 2 hardware, it feels like a major step forward from the original Switch — it has grown up a lot and feels far more polished and refined. And while it may not have an OLED screen, the 7.9-inch LED display Nintendo did use is outstanding.When will the Nintendo Switch 2 come out?June 5, 2025.When do pre-orders open for Nintendo Switch 2?Pre-orders will go live in the US and Canada on April 24. They were originally set to begin on April 9, but on April 4 Nintendo announced it was suspending pre-order plans in the US "indefinitely" in reaction to a slate of tariffs imposed by President Trump. In any case, Nintendo says that the release date for the console is unchanged. How much will the Nintendo Switch 2 cost?On April 2, Nintendo announced that the Switch 2 would cost $450 standalone, or $500 with a bundled digital copy of the new Mario Kart game, Mario Kart World. That’s significantly more expensive than the original Switch, which launched at $300, and has remained at that price ever since. It’s also more expensive than the entry-level current-gen consoles from Sony and Microsoft.The comparison looks a little better up against Valve’s Steam Deck, which costs $400 for the LCD model or $550 for the basic OLED model. The Steam Deck is more affordable than most PC handhelds.When Nintendo delayed the pre-orders from the original date of April 9, it said it was doing so "in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions." With heavy US tariffs levied on Nintendo's Asian production centers, the implication was that would have little choice but to pass at least some of those costs on to American consumers. But Trump's April 9 tariff pivot — reverting to 10 percent across the board for 90 days for all countries except China, which now gets a triple-digit hit — further muddied the waters. That's because it's unclear how much, if any, of the components and assembly of US-bound Switch 2 consoles will originate in China.The administration exempted some electronics from reciprocal tariffs, but they'll soon be subject to new levies on semiconductors. Some analysts suggest that Nintendo will be selling consoles at a loss in the US with even a 10 percent tariff.Nevertheless, the company is keeping the price of the Switch 2 at $450 and the Mario Kart World bundle at $450. However, it noted that it had to increase the prices of Switch 2 accessories "due to changing market conditions" and added that other price modifications may occur in the future for a similar reason.How much do the Nintendo Switch 2 accessories cost?When Nintendo announced the rescheduled Switch 2 pre-order date for the US and Canada, it confirmed price increases for many of the console's accessories. The current US prices for the accessories are as follows:Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller — $85Joy-Con 2 Pair — $95Joy-Con 2 Charging Grip — $40Joy-Con 2 Strap — $14Joy-Con 2 Wheel Set — $25Nintendo Switch 2 Camera — $55Nintendo Switch 2 Dock Set — $120Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case & Screen Protector — $40Nintendo Switch 2 All-In-One Carrying Case — $85Nintendo Switch 2 AC Adapter — $35Samsung microSD Express Card – 256GB for Nintendo Switch 2 — $60The price of the Joy-Con 2 strap has gone up by $1, but the prices of other products have risen by between $5 and $10, with the dock set getting the larger increase. Thankfully, your Nintendo Switch 2 will come with a dock. Nintendo also released a list of accessory prices for Canada.How long will the Switch 2's battery last?Nintendo says that the Switch 2 will last between 2 and 6.5 hours on a single charge. This is similar to the original Switch, which was rated for 2.5-6.5 hours, though later revisions upped that figure significantly. The company cautions that "this time is an estimate ... battery life will depend on the games you play and usage conditions."When can I try the Nintendo Switch 2?Nintendo is hosting a worldwide roadshow to let gamers go hands-on with the console. These events started in New York and Paris on April 4-6, with others taking place throughout the following two months. Ticket registration for many of the Nintendo Switch 2 Experience events has closed, but waitlists are available. However, given that Nintendo is taking a first come, first served approach, your chances of attending the roadshow if you don't already have a ticket (or unless you signed up for the waitlist immediately) seem very small at this point.The full list of Nintendo Switch 2 Experience dates is as follows:North America:New York, April 4-6, 2025Los Angeles, April 11-13, 2025Dallas, April 25-27, 2025Toronto, April 25-27, 2025Europe:Paris, April 4-6, 2025London, April 11-13, 2025Milan, April 25-27, 2025Berlin, April 25-27, 2025Madrid, May 9-11, 2025Amsterdam, May 9-11, 2025Oceania:Melbourne, May 10-11, 2025Asia:Tokyo (Makuhari), April 26-27, 2025Seoul, May 31-June 1, 2025Hong Kong, To be announcedTaipei, To be announcedIs the Nintendo Switch 2 backwards compatible?Nintendo confirmed in November 2024 that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be backwards compatible. It will also feature access to Nintendo Online, so users will be able to play all of those old retro titles.In the initial Nintendo Switch 2 press release, Nintendo reiterated that physical and digital Switch games will work on the new system. However, it noted that "certain Nintendo Switch games may not be supported on or fully compatible with Nintendo Switch 2." We now have more information on which games are working thanks to a guide Nintendo put together.Nintendo's software compatibility chart on April 2, 2025.NintendoAs of April 1, the vast majority of Switch 2 games are marked as compatible, but many popular games are said to have some issues. Nintendo has marked most of these as “under investigation,” suggesting a fix may be on the way in time for launch. Nintendo says it is manually testing every Switch game for compatibility.Only one title is marked as incompatible: Nintendo Labo Toy-Con 04: VR Kit. This was part of Nintendo’s Labo range of games that worked with Cardboard accessories, and is incompatible as the Switch 2 doesn’t physically fit in the VR headset.Will old games be enhanced in any way?The original Switch has, to put it mildly, struggled to run some of the late-generation software that's come down the pike. Could these games be enhanced to take advantage of the increased horsepower of the Switch 2? That’s unclear. In an “Ask the Developer” page on its site, Nintendo says that old games are working through a real-time translation system, which sounds similar to how Rosetta allows modern Macs to run old software. With that said, the new and old Switch are much closer in hardware than that.In the same developer interview, it’s said that in its testing of old games for compatibility, there were some occasions “where loading times became faster, or game performance became more stable,” but we don’t have any detail beyond that.As well as backward compatibility, Nintendo is also offering up premium "Switch 2 Edition" upgrades for a select few games. These have improved resolutions and frame rates, and (in some cases) bonus features and content. What exactly that means will vary, but Nintendo did confirm that Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will have 4K/60 fps and 1080p/120 fps options on the Switch 2.Games confirmed to have a Switch 2 Edition to date include:Super Mario Party JamboreeThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the WildThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the KingdomKirby and the Forgotten LandPokémon Legends: Z-AMetroid Prime 4: BeyondIn the case of the two mainline Zelda games, those upgrades will be included with a Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership or cost $10 each. Upgrades for the other games are also paid, but Nintendo has not said how much those will cost.What will the cartridges taste like?You may remember that the original Switch cartridges taste absolutely awful. This was on purpose, to discourage folks from putting the games in their mouth.Similarly, the Switch 2 carts are also said to taste terrible, in large part to stop children or pets from accidentally ingesting them. It is not yet clear what substance Nintendo has coated the Switch 2 cartridges in to make them taste foul, but Nintendo's Takuhiro Dohta advised against licking them all the same."We don't want anybody to be at risk of any unwanted consumption," he told GameSpot. "We have indeed made it so that if it enters your mouth, you'll spit it out."What are the launch games?We expect this list to change substantially over the coming weeks and months, but the titles currently confirmed to be available on day one follow:Arcade Archives 2 Ridge RacerBravely Default: Flying Fairy HD RemasterCyberpunk 2077DeltaruneFast FusionFortniteHitman: World of AssassinationHogwarts LegacyKunitsu-Gami: Path of the GoddessMario Kart WorldNintendo Switch 2 Welcome TourPuyo Puyo Tetris 2SSplit FictionStreet Fighter 6Survival KidsYakuza 0: Director's CutThat's everything we know about the Nintendo Switch 2 today.

Say what you will about Elon Musk, he's got a brain for ideas. They just might not be good ones. His latest ketamine-fueled concept is a bid to build Donald Trump's "Golden Dome" missile defense system, for which the billionaire's SpaceX has emerged as a frontrunner, according to Reuters. Musk's company is leading a coalition of insidious tech corporations in the bidding, including the surveillance platform Palantir, and the drone builder Anduril.

U.S. President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told reporters a more comprehensive agreement would be signed next week.Ukraine said Thursday that it had signed the basis of a minerals deal with the U.S., although the details of the outline agreement are yet to be announced.Yulia Svyrydenko, Ukraine’s minister of economic development and trade, said both sides had signed a “memorandum of intent” that was the basis of an agreement that is likely to see Ukraine and the U.S. jointly develop the country’s natural resources.“We are happy to announce the signing, with our American partners, of a Memorandum of Intent, which paves the way for an Economic Partnership Agreement and the establishment of the Investment Fund for the Reconstruction of Ukraine,” Svyrydenko posted on social media platform X.Svyrydenko gave no further detail on the outline deal but posted images of her and U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent purportedly signing the agreement.Anadolu | Anadolu | Getty ImagesU.S. Secretary of Treasury, Scott Bessent (C) signs the basis of a rare earth minerals deal on April 17, 2025.Earlier Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump and Bessent had told reporters that a more comprehensive agreement would be signed next week.“Well, we have a minerals deal, which I guess is going to be signed on Thursday — next Thursday [24 April]? Soon. And I assume they’re [Ukraine] going to live up to the deal, so we’ll see. But we have a deal on that,” Trump said at a press conference at the White House on Thursday.Bessent added that “we’re still working on the details.

And we have positive, constructive intentions,” Reuters reported.He added that the offer to sign the memorandum before the comprehensive deal, which would require the Ukrainian parliament to ratify it, had come from the U.S. side, the news agency noted.

"Embarrassed" Reaction To New 45 Foot Naked Woman Statue In San Francisco A towering 45-foot statue of a nude woman now looms over San Francisco’s Embarcadero Plaza, drawing equal parts awe, ridicule, and criticism, according to Fox News.The sculpture, R-Evolution, originally created for Burning Man in 2015 by Marco Cochrane, was unveiled Thursday with lights, music, and performance art. Designed to “breathe” using internal motors, the statue is meant to symbolize strength and compassion.Instead, it’s ignited backlash from residents and commentators who see it as a tone-deaf installation in a city still grappling with homelessness, open-air drug use, and economic decay."Nothing says ‘reviving downtown’ like a 45-foot naked lady getting rear-end surgery," one user quipped after viral footage showed a cherry picker being hoisted awkwardly between the statue’s legs. Another commented, “This picture kind of embodies the spirit of San Francisco — head up a--.”NEW: San Francisco has erected a statue of a woman with no clothes on which will be greeting visitors in front of the Ferry Building.The 45-foot-tall statue was installed to "jazz up downtown" according to CBS News.One worker was seen doing a "surgical procedure" on the... pic.twitter.com/QjxhbiYEpn— Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) April 10, 2025While some have praised the sculpture as empowering, others view it as a misplaced priority. “I don't know where to begin about the misplaced priorities for the city of San Francisco,” said Bruce Lou, a recent Republican challenger to Rep. Nancy Pelosi. “They seem like they are focused on absolutely everything except the things that matter.”John Dennis, former San Francisco GOP chair, offered a sharper critique: “A giant, naked woman blocking the proud, iconic Ferry Building is a perfect metaphor for San Francisco these days.”Even left-leaning voices have joined the chorus. KQED arts editor Sarah Hotchkiss wrote, "As I gazed up at this monumental steel and mesh sculpture on Thursday, I felt embarrassed for the city of San Francisco... we are all the audience for this thing, and no one asked us if we wanted it."The statue’s installation comes amid a homelessness crisis affecting over 8,300 residents, according to city data. While San Francisco plans to spend nearly $690 million on housing and homelessness in the next fiscal year, encampments remain widespread.Crime stats show a mixed bag: violent crime is down 14% and car break-ins are at a 22-year low, but gun violence has edged up 5%. Drug-related arrests are up nearly 40% over early 2024, yet critics argue enforcement without treatment only displaces the problem.Fox News writes that R-Evolution is expected to remain on display for six months to a year. Rep. Pelosi has not commented on the installation. Tyler DurdenThu, 04/17/2025 - 22:25

Moses Lin typically has an idea of what his work schedule will look like a year in advance. Lin, 31, is a wedding guitarist in Southern California and says couples typically book his services 12 to 18 months out.Now, some people are booking him with just a few months’ notice. Lin says peoples’ recession fears could be partly to blame.“Because of the uncertainty in the market, there’s a [feeling of] ‘I don’t know what’s going to happen in 18 months,'” Lin tells CNBC Make It of the urgency he feels from couples. “So it’s kind of like, ‘OK we’re good right now. Let’s spend the money and get out and just do it.”“I even get quite a few people that will reach out, and they’ll be like, ‘What are you doing in three weeks?'” he adds. “It’s great, but it’s also a little concerning.”While Lin says the nature of his service allows him to be flexible to be added to events on shorter notice, he hears from wedding planner friends being asked to arrange high-budget weddings within the next three months, that would normally be planned over a longer period.Small business owners like Lin say that even if their services aren’t impacted by tariffs recently announced by the Trump administration directly, consumers’ anxiety about the economy could hit their bottom line.Consumer confidence in the economic outlook fell to a 12-year low in March, according to the Conference Board, notably before the Trump administration unveiled its full tariff policy that sent the stock market reeling and ratcheted up recession fears.Spending now before prices changeFor months now, Lin says he has seen evidence of couples feeling the financial squeeze: more backyard weddings, smaller guest lists, fewer destination weddings, and overall cost-cutting in certain areas to afford the luxury of others.The return to smaller events could be natural following the post-pandemic boom when people rushed to spend money on in-person celebrations again, even while facing record inflation that has since abated, according to CNBC reporting.But new uncertainty in the economy could spell trouble for business.Lin notes that many wedding budget line items could be subject to higher prices in the coming months. Most flowers are imported from other countries, for example, so if a couple’s floral budget skyrockets due to tariffs, “there’s less money in the budget for everything else, and that’s me,” Lin says. “As things get tight, people have to really pick and choose what’s important and what’s not.”Lin, who says he raised his prices this year and charges up to $9,000 to play a local wedding and up to $15,000 for a destination gig, says he hasn’t felt a drop in bookings this season, but that he’s still cautious of what’s to come. He says he recently gave one of his assistants a 25% raise in what he calls a retention move; if there’s a downturn, he hopes the assistant won’t find a higher-paying job that keeps them from being able to work Lin’s wedding gigs.“There’s a lot of concern in the industry,” he says.The average wedding cost $33,000 in 2024, an 18% jump from 2019, according to a report from The Knot and reported by Bloomberg. Following the financial crisis more than 15 years ago, average wedding spending fell 8% over a two-year period to $26,000 in 2010, according to The Knot data.Saving for later when things might be calmerWhile Lin juggles more short-notice requests from financially-anxious couples, another small business owner says she is worrying about delayed timelines.Rebecca Smiley, 28, a travel agent for her company Smiley Travel, says she experienced a recent dip in booking activity during the industry’s so-called “wave season,” when cruise lines offer their best deals and people typically book their spring and summer travel.Becca RuschellRebecca Smiley quit her job as a college admissions counselor to become a travel agent. She booked over $800K in trips in 2024.Travel planners say bookings dropped during this year’s wave season compared to 2024 because of high prices and advanced bookings.Smiley says some clients discussed pushing their upcoming vacation plans out to 2026, which she says could be due to new Trump tariffs and overall recession concerns.Some clients said they needed more time to save for a trip, while others realize “everything’s a little bit more expensive, so we just can’t make it happen this year,” Smiley says.Now in her third year of business, Smiley says it’s typically the time agents like her work on leveling up in their careers, such as by scaling up their clientele or expanding their business.Smiley says she’s putting plans for any big swings on hold.“I’m just mostly not going to take any risks as of right now,” Smiley says. “This has definitely made us think a little bit before we leap, and that’s where people are with their travel, too. They’re looking into things a little bit more, and thinking twice before clicking the ‘book’ button.”Still, not all travelers see uncertainty as cause for caution. Smiley says bookings resumed in the last week or so, especially among younger travelers who may be thinking, “We’ve lived through so many quote-unquote ‘historical events’ and I want to go on my vacation, dang it,” Smiley says.And some economic factors, like a drop in flight prices, could be good for business, Smiley says. Airfares in March were down 5.2% year-over-year, according to a NerdWallet analysis.“That’s one piece of the puzzle that’s that’s a little bit positive,” Smiley says. “People feel a lot better spending more on hotels and other extras than on overly expensive flights.”Smiley’s confidence in consumers’ travel spending fluctuates “day to day, just like everything else with the news right now,” she says. “I’ve heard some agents compare it to Covid. Some people are really getting hit. Other people are trying to ride out that wave.”Wall Street analysts slashed their earnings estimates and price targets for airlines in recent weeks due to fears of slowing demand, CNBC reports, while CEOs have warned of slowing domestic travel demand.Do you want a new career that’s higher-paying, more flexible or fulfilling?

Netflix executives said the business has remained stable amid recent economic turmoil. Still, Netflix decline to revise 2025 guidance upward, despite “tracking above the mid-point” of its stated range. Netflix cited its previous history of successfully weathering economic downturns.Netflix executives messaged Thursday that all is well with the business in the face of economic turbulence. But its full-year outlook tells a slightly more nuanced story.Netflix posted a big beat on operating margin for the first quarter, reporting 31.7% compared with the average estimate of 28.5%, according to StreetAccount. And it guided well above analyst estimates for the second quarter — 33.3% against an average estimate of 30%.By its own phrasing, Netflix was “ahead” of its own guidance for the first quarter and is “tracking above the mid-point of our 2025 revenue guidance range.”Still, Netflix declined to alter any of its longer-term projections. That suggests Netflix isn’t quite as confident in its second half.“There’s been no material change to our overall business outlook since our last earnings report,” Netflix wrote in its quarterly note to shareholders.U.S. consumer sentiment is at its second-lowest level since 1952 as President Donald Trump’s new tariff policies roil markets.Co-CEO Greg Peters noted during the company’s earnings conference call that Netflix has, in the past, “been generally quite resilient” to economic slowdowns. Home entertainment provides a cheaper form of leisure than most other activities. A monthly Netflix subscription with ads costs $7.99.But the question remains how — or whether — an economic slowdown would pinch Americans’ wallets and force higher churn among streaming subscriptions.Netflix stopped reporting quarterly subscriber numbers this quarter, so the company will likely not detail if it sees a customer slowdown later this year beyond reporting its underlying revenue and profit.First-quarter revenue of $10.5 billion was roughly in line with analyst expectations, while second-quarter guidance of $11 billion is slightly above.“Retention, that’s stable and strong. We haven’t seen anything significant in plan mix or plan take rate,” said Peters. “Things generally look stable.”

Marvel Rivals' continued evolution as a live-service hero shooter periodically adds new features to shake up the game or improve it for players, and season two has added yet another new one.Costume Color Customization was added in the April 17 update for the game, allowing players the option of palette swaps for specific skins in the game, including several fan favorites. But with the new feature also came something else new called Unstable Molecules.Here's everything there is to know about Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals.Table of contentsWhat are Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals?How to get Unstable Molecules in Marvel RivalsWhat are Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals?Screenshot by DestructoidUnstable Molecules is a currency in Marvel Rivals that is used to purchase new costume colors for specific costumes in the game. At launch, just four specific skins have color customization. This means you must own the skin in question and then also purchase the color for it. Unfortunately, the colors are tied to these skins and these skins only and are not swappable or usable on different skins in the game. Basically, the colors are costume recolors for a limited number of skins for a price.Here's what there is so far:Luna SnowCostume: Mirae 2099Color: Plasma PulseMagikCostume: PunkchildColor: Rosy ResiliencePsylockeCostume: VengeanceColor: Phantom PurpleWinter SoldierCostume: RevolutionColor: Winter's WrathHow to get Unstable Molecules in Marvel RivalsRight now, Unstable Molecules are only available as a one-to-one conversion from Lattice, which is the premium paid currency in Marvel Rivals. The only way to get new skin recolors (like the Psylocke one above) is to purchase Lattice and then convert it.Each skin recolor costs 600 Unstable Molecules (600 Lattice), which works out to about $6. However, NetEase Games says it will be introducing ways to earn Unstable Molecules in season three, which is set to begin in July.It's unknown yet how Unstable Molecules will be earned, but it's possible that it could be added to the battle pass as part of the rewards track, or as rewards for special missions in the game.This article will be updated with more info on how to get Unstable Molecules once it's revealed closer to season three, but for now, be prepared to shell out some real world currency to swap the colors on the aforementioned skins.The post How to get Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals appeared first on Destructoid.

Trump Signs Order Barring Illegal Immigrants From Receiving Social Security Authored by T.J. Muscaro via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),President Donald Trump signed a memorandum on April 15 directing several federal agencies to take measures to prevent Social Security payments from going to ineligible people such as illegal immigrants and fraudsters.A woman walks past a Social Security Administration office in Flushing, New York City, on Feb. 10, 2021. Chung I Ho/The Epoch TimesThe memorandum was directed at the Social Security Administration inspector general, the Social Security commissioner, the attorney general, and the secretaries of labor, health and human services, and homeland security.Meanwhile, the commissioner is directed to cooperate with the attorney general to expand the SSA’s full-time fraud prosecutor program specifically targeting identity theft and beneficiary-side fraud to at least 50 U.S. Attorney Offices by Oct. 1.The memo also “establishes a Medicare and Medicaid fraud prosecution program in 15 U.S. Attorney offices,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said during a press briefing.Department heads are ordered to prioritize the placement of prosecutors in both programs to the offices whose jurisdiction has been determined by Homeland Security to cover the top 10 largest known populations of illegal immigrants.The memo also directs the inspector general of the Social Security Administration (SSA) to investigate earnings reports for individuals over the age of 100. Earlier this year the Department of Government Efficiency reported that hundreds of eligible Social Security recipients were found to be well over a century old.The inspector general is also required to investigate instances of mismatched Social Security records to combat identity theft.The SSA will be asked to consider resuming the implementation of civil monetary penalties on individuals found to have engaged in Social Security fraud.“These taxpayer-funded benefits should be only for eligible taxpayers, and President Biden should think about what he did in his last term, which is allow tens of millions of illegal people into our country, many of whom were fraudulently receiving these benefits,” Leavitt said.This latest executive action was made shortly after the White House announced that more than 6,300 illegal immigrants had been stripped of Social Security and other federal benefits. Those individuals had been paroled into the United States by the Biden administration during or after 2023 and were flagged as a national security risk, holding a criminal record, or listed in the FBI’s terrorist screening database. Their parole, which shielded them from deportation, ended on April 8.Those individuals’ Social Security numbers were reclassified by the SSA into an Ineligible Master File to further ensure they can never access federal aid again.The SSA also announced on April 15, before Trump’s signing of the memorandum, that it launched new identification technology. Specifically, it targets suspicious activity in telephone claims and bank changes by analyzing anomalies and patterns within a person’s account and requiring in-person identity proofing at a Social Security office if irregularities are detected.The changing of bank information over the phone accounted for approximately 40 percent of direct deposit fraud, according to the SSA, with the Inspector General’s Office estimating that $33.5 million in benefits for nearly 21,000 beneficiaries was misdirected between January 2013 and May 2018.The SSA has implemented the Department of the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service’s Account Verification Service (AVS) to secure instant verification, but these two entities are not the only ones collaborating.Work to oust illegal immigration by tracking the flow of money has also begun between the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the IRS, using the sharing of taxpayer data to target possibly dangerous illegal immigrants.“Information sharing across agencies is essential to identify who is in our country, including violent criminals, determine what public safety and terror threats may exist so we can neutralize them, scrub these individuals from voter rolls, as well as identify what public benefits these aliens are using at the American taxpayer expense,” a DHS spokesperson told The Epoch Times.Anne Johnson, Chase Smith, and Jack Phillips contributed to this report.

U.S. markets on Wednesday were rocked by renewed trade jitters, but Asia-Pacific markets rose Thursday. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell expressed concern over the tension between keeping inflation down and employment up. The World Trade Organization warned that the global trade outlook has “deteriorated sharply.” Freight ships from China are canceling trips, which will affect many links in the U.S. economy. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company reported Thursday first-quarter earnings that beat analyst expectations. Piper Sandler is still confident on the U.S. dollar despite its recent dips.Trade barriers can come in many forms. Tariffs are just one. Onerous licensing requirements, export restrictions and fines on shipping are other obstacles.Nvidia said Tuesday it would be taking a $5.5 billion charge related to canceled chip exports to China because of new licensing rules from the U.S. government. Beijing has retaliated to Trump tariffs by implementing export restrictions on rare earth elements and increasing antitrust scrutiny on U.S. firms. Donald Trump’s administration has been floating the idea of imposing levies on Chinese-made containerships calling at U.S. ports.Given those developments, the World Trade Organization warned on Wednesday that the outlook for global trade has “deteriorated sharply,” and forecast a 0.2% decline in 2025. It’s not mere fearmongering: Shipping vessels originating from China are already canceling their journeys.Conditions in the stock market have likewise worsened. U.S. stocks fell Wednesday as export restrictions on Nvidia kept investors jittery. Trade — in all contexts — is getting hammered by the onslaught of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs.What you need to know todayU.S. markets rocked by renewed trade jittersU.S. stocks slumped Wednesday, hitting session lows after U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s speech on inflation and tariffs. The S&P 500 lost 2.24% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.73%. The Nasdaq Composite sank 3.07%, weighed down by heavy declines in chip stocks amid reports of new U.S. licensing requirements for Nvidia exports. The chipmaker’s shares sank 6.9%.Asian markets break from Wall StreetAsia-Pacific markets were mostly in the green Thursday. South Korea’s Kospi added around 1% as the country’s central bank expectedly held its benchmark interest rate at 2.75%. Japan’s Nikkei 225 climbed roughly 1.2% even as the country reported a 3.9% rise in its exports in March, missing estimates and sharply lower the 11.4% jump in February.Tension in dual mandatePowell on Wednesday expressed concern that the central bank “may find ourselves in the challenging scenario in which our dual-mandate goals are in tension.” The Fed aims to ensure stable prices and full employment. Economists, including those at the Fed, see threats to both goals from Trump tariffs, which are “likely to move us further away from our goals,” Powell said in a question-and-answer session.WTO warns of world trade disorganization“The outlook for global trade has deteriorated sharply due to a surge in tariffs and trade policy uncertainty,” the World Trade Organization warned in its latest “Global Trade Outlook and Statistics” report out Wednesday. Based on the tariffs currently in place, and including a 90-day suspension of “reciprocal tariffs,” the volume of world merchandise trade is now expected to decline by 0.2% in 2025.Freight ships from China canceling tripsU.S. importers are being notified of an increase in canceled sailings by freight ships out of China: A total of 80 blank, or canceled, sailings out of China have been recorded by freight company HLS Group. The impact of the diminished freight container traffic to North America will be significant for many links in the economy and supply chain, including the ports and logistics companies moving the freight.TSMC earnings beat expectationsTaiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company reported Thursday first-quarter earnings that beat analyst expectations. The chip manufacturing company’s net income increased 60.3% from a year ago to NT$361.56 billion ($11.1 billion), while net revenue in the March quarter rose 41.6% to NT$839.25 billion from the same period last year. Demand for artificial intelligence chips has boosted TSMC’s fortunes, but Trump tariffs pose a threat to its future earnings. [PRO] Still confident on dollar: Piper SandlerThe dollar index, which measures the greenback against a basket of major currencies, fell last week to its lowest point since April 2022 amid heightened uncertainty from Trump tariffs. More alarmingly, the U.S. dollar is typically viewed as a safe-haven asset in times of volatility, so its weakening has raised concerns. Piper Sandler, however, is still confident on the currency — here’s why.And finally...Dilara Irem Sancar | Anadolu | Getty ImagesChina targets U.S. services and other areas as it decries ‘meaningless’ tariff hikes on goodsChina last week announced it was done retaliating against U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs, saying more increases by the U.S. would be a “joke,” and Beijing would “ignore” them.Instead of continuing to focus on tariffing goods, China has chosen to resort to other measures, including steps targeting the American services sector. Beijing has rolled out a series of non-tariff restrictive measures, such as widening export controls of rare-earth minerals and opening antitrust probes into American companies.Additionally, China is seen by some as seeking to broaden the trade war to encompass services trade — which covers travel, legal, consulting and financial services — where the U.S. has been running a significant surplus with China for years.

UK Supreme Court Rules A Trans-Woman Is Not A Woman The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom has unanimously ruled that the terms "women" and "sex" refer to a biological woman and biological sex. On Wednesday, the court concluded that someone with a Gender Reassignment Card in the female gender does not fall within the definition of a woman under the Equality Act of 2010 - which legally protects people in British society from discrimination.BREAKING: It's the "unanimous decision" of this court that the terms "woman" and "sex" refer to a biological woman and biological sex in the Equality Act 2010, Lord Hodge says in the Supreme CourtLive updates ➡️ https://t.co/tEMadShrvq📺 Sky 501 and YouTube pic.twitter.com/J37IxxLiCj— Sky News (@SkyNews) April 16, 2025A Scottish advocacy group, 'For Women Scotland' had sued the Scottish government which had argued in court that trans people with a Gender Reassignment Card are entitled to same sex protections as biological women. In 2018, Scottish Parliament concluded that the definition of a woman includes people "with the protected characteristic of gender reassignment" under the Gender Representation on Public Boards Act, and that people "living as a woman" and those "proposing to undergo, undergoing, who have undergone a gender reassignment process," were included.Women Scotland, meanwhile - whose website states "that there are only two sexes, that a person's sex is not a choice, nor can it be changed," took the case to Britain's Supreme Court in order to obtain a concrete interpretation of the 2010 Equality Act, which would apply across the entire UK.The U.K. Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that only people born female are defined as women under Britain's Equality Act. © Andy Rain/EPA-EFEAccording to the Supremes, "a person with a GRC in the female gender does not come within the definition of a woman under," and that "the statutory guidance issued by the Scottish Ministers is incorrect."That said, this interpretation of the 2010 EA leaves certain protections for trans people intact - specifically that "trans people are protected from discrimination on the ground of gender reassignment," and that they are also "able to invoke the provisions on direct discrimination and harassment, and indirect discrimination on the basis of sex."It took three extraordinary, tenacious Scottish women with an army behind them to get this case heard by the Supreme Court and, in winning, they’ve protected the rights of women and girls across the UK. @ForWomenScot, I’m so proud to know you 🏴💜🏴💚🏴🤍🏴 https://t.co/JEvcScVVGS— J.K.

Xbox is going all in with a suite of customization options for DOOM: The Dark Ages, which is due to launch in just under a month. And they capture the feeling and aesthetic of hell perfectly.That is to say that the limited-edition controllers and Xbox Series X console wrap are ugly as hell, just as the game might suggest. But for DOOM fans, it's probably exactly what they're looking for when it comes to showing their love for the decades-old FPS franchise.Image via XboxThe regular Xbox wireless controller features a design similar to the demon-killing armor worn by the Doom Slayer himself, also sporting some blood splatters, a red right analog stick, and red LB and LT buttons to signify how important the game's new shield feature is.And then there's the $200 Xbox Elite wireless controller, fully equipped with back buttons, grips, and all the accoutrements players expect from the premium gamepad, all with a sleek blood-red theme. I think I definitely like this one a bit more.The controllers are one thing, really. I think there's a lot of room for expression when it comes to controllers, as I have several different funky designs myself. But I know many gamers care about their entertainment center aesthetic and like to have a matching scheme with their electronics, so the console wrap is just brutal.I'm not sure how many gamers will be looking to drop this demonic rock-looking Series X onto their entertainment center and underneath their TV, but I bet there'll be plenty of DOOM fans looking to pick it up for $54.99.I, for one, am definitely excited about the game itself, which looks to have a bit of a slower, heavier feel to fit the new setting of medieval times where the Doom Slayer uses a shield, flail, and other violent weaponry to stomp all over the hordes of hell in the prequel.Screenshot by DestructoidIf you're pumped for DOOM: The Dark Ages and want to go for a rusty, bloody, medieval aesthetic throughout your living room or gamer cave, then head to the Xbox website for more info before the game launches on May 13.The post Xbox’s limited DOOM: The Dark Ages controller and console wrap are uglier than hell itself appeared first on Destructoid.

MacworldAt a glanceExpert's RatingProsFriendly interface, good performanceRemoves leftover file systems and unwanted extensionsEasy to find what you’re hunting forConsMediocre update utilityRemaining Files module needs to be custom-configured Search and removal function impacts core file systems and functionalityOur Verdict Despite everything App Cleaner & Uninstaller does well through its friendly interface and ability to dig deep under macOS’ hood to find files, extensions, and application remnants you don’t need, there are some flaws in the Remaining Files and Updates modules that can’t be ignored.Price When ReviewedThis value will show the geolocated pricing text for product undefinedBest Pricing TodayPrice When Reviewed$14.95 a year for 1 MacBest Prices Today: Nektony App Cleaner & UninstallerRetailerPriceNektony (1 year, 1 Mac)$14.95View DealPrice comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwideProductPricePrice comparison from BackmarketThere are times when an application has all the potential in the world but still can’t execute what its developers set out to do. This is the case with Nektony’s App Cleaner & Uninstaller, the company’s general cleanup utility and the core of Nektony’s larger MacCleaner suite (reviewed here: MacCleaner Pro review). App Cleaner & Uninstaller, which requires macOS 10.13 (High Sierra or later) to download and install, is available as a two-day free download. The software is easy to download, install, and assign full disk permissions to, and is centered around the Applications, Startup Programs, Extensions, Remaining Files, and Updates modules.Where the Applications module is concerned, this chunk of App Cleaner & Uninstaller shines as the centerpiece of the application. Once this is launched and the Applications have been indexed, it’s easy to hunt down random applications, including the remains of software wherein only the remnants have been left behind, and remove them with a click. The Startup Programs excels as well, offering a convenient list of anything that qualifies as a startup application and grouping them into three categories (All Programs, Active, and Disabled), then allowing you to pick and choose what to remove as needed. The Extensions module features useful categorization of your Mac’s extensions (Installation Files, Web Browser Extensions, Screen Savers, Settings Panes, Internet Plugins, and Widgets), and location and removal of a specific extension is pretty much a cinch.FoundryThese are the better points as App Cleaner & Uninstaller begins to fall apart with its Remaining Files and Updater elements. The Remaining Files module, albeit incredibly useful, makes the mistake of offering a generalized “Remove” feature, which offers the ability to locate and remove orphaned files and clear up gigabytes of space in the process. While this is handy, it’s also akin to trying to kill a housefly with a flamethrower, as the module chooses critical system elements such as the App Store to go after, which can affect your Mac’s overall functionality once these system files have been torn out. During my tests, the module also targeted assorted Adobe Creative Cloud applications and files, removing underlying file systems and requiring the reinstallation of several Adobe applications. Yes, you can run a generalized cleanup, but the Remaining Files module is one where you should slow down and pick and choose exactly what you’re looking to remove, lest you strip out something critical to your Mac or your day-to-day workflow.FoundryUnfortunately, the Updates module is that much worse, and though convenient and capable of finding an update to the Transmission peer-to-peer file-sharing application that I hadn’t known about, missed major updates such as ff-Works, Slack, Microsoft Office, and others that competing applications tend to find without missing a beat. This module seems to be a mediocre afterthought, adding no real value to the App Cleaner & Uninstaller application, and Nektony arguably needs to gauge how effective it is at locating updates, then talk to the developers of the application updates they’re missing and see why so many pertinent updates are being glossed over.It’s with the Remaining Files and Updates modules that the application falls short, and as handy as the other three modules may be, three out of five won’t cut it in the big leagues. Yes, the Remaining Files module can be precisely aimed and configured at exactly what you don’t need. The “Remove” button and the somewhat destructive system sweep this leads to seems to beg for trouble. Finally, an Updates module that misses some of the most pertinent software updates in the Mac ecosystem feels like this was lazily tacked on, and it’ll take the developers making some coffee, sitting down, and genuinely refining this to make it what it could be.FoundryNektony’s App Cleaner & Uninstaller could be great with some work, but for now, there are better catch-all utilities in this vein that do the job better and are worthier your attention and consideration.Should you buy Nektony’s App Cleaner & UninstallerSo where does this put the potential buyer? Well, Nektony offers a free two-day trial with which to test the software, and while not a generous period, it’s still better than nothing. If you’re curious, this is worth the download, but the Remaining Files and Updates modules feel like missed opportunities. There are better utilities for this that are more deserving of your time and attention, and until Nektony goes back and fixes these errors, these are better utilities to trust your Mac to in the meantime. A quick weekend of work and a devoted bug hunt could fix these issues, which a starving developer/CS student would weed out without question. And until Nektony gets that fire in its belly and fixes these issues, there are better places to spend your time and money where your Mac is concerned.MacCleaner and App Cleaner are both included in our round up of the Best Mac Cleaners, see how they compare to other Mac cleaning software.

Are you searching for the Upgrade Disks in Blue Prince? These are some of the most useful items in the game, as they allow you to choose from various perks that apply to rooms in the manor. That said, they're scattered all over the estate, so finding all of them can take you a while. Oh, and before we continue with this guide, do take note that there will be a few spoilers.How to get all Upgrade Disks in Blue Prince - Upgrade Disk locations guideThere are over a dozen Upgrade Disks in Blue Prince, and each one provides perks for certain rooms that you draft. If you have one in your inventory, you can make use of it by going in front of a computer terminal in specific rooms--i.e. Security, Laboratory, Office, and Shelter. You should see a prompt to use the Upgrade Disk on the computer.However, as with many things in the game, randomization does apply. As such, you might get an Upgrade Disk in a particular location, only to realize that the boosts that it provides are for an entirely different room.In any case, our Blue Prince Upgrade Disks guide is organized based on locations. We start off with those that can be found in the manor, followed by those in outer rooms and the Underground. We've also included links to related guides in case the steps to get these objects are more convoluted than usual.

Lincoln Was A 'Threat To Democracy' Authored by Al Perrotta via The Daily Signal,One hundred sixty years ago tonight, at Ford’s Theater, John Wilkes Booth put a bullet in the head of President Abraham Lincoln. What motivated the 26-year-old actor? Fame? No, he had plenty of that. His photos were outsold only by Honest Abe himself. Acclaim? No, contrary to tales told in school that he was jealous of the critical raves afforded his father Junius and brother Edwin, Booth earned reviews any young actor would die for. He even refused to perform under his real name until he earned reviews worthy of the name. To avenge the Confederacy’s defeat? You’re getting closer. Booth raged and despaired over the suffering incurred by the South. Actually, John Wilkes Booth told us his motivation. After shooting Lincoln and making his dramatic leap to the stage, Booth shouted “Sic Semper Tyrannis!” (“Thus always to tyrants.”) Or to put it another way, “Lincoln was a threat to democracy.” Threat to Democracy Twice last summer, amid a daily drumbeat from former President Joe Biden, Democrats, and the media that Donald Trump was a “threat to democracy,” a budding tyrant, two would-be assassins came very close to killing him. Ryan Routh was charged Thursday in Florida for his attempt. A recent study indicates 55% of self-described leftists think the assassination of Trump would be “justifiable.” Given the rhetoric, given the vast numbers with a similar heart, it’s no wonder Routh thought he was doing the world a favor. “Everyone across the globe from the youngest to the oldest know [sic] that Trump is unfit to be anything, much less a U.S. president,” Routh wrote in a letter found after his arrest. “U.S. presidents must at bare minimum embody the moral fabric that is America and be kind, caring and selfless and always stand for humanity.” So did Booth, who wrote while on the run: Our country owed all her troubles to him, and God simply made me the instrument of his punishment.A country that groaned beneath this tyranny, and prayed for this end, and yet now behold the cold hands they extend to me. Booth grew increasingly dismayed at being vilified and rejected. I am here in despair. And why? For doing what Brutus was honored for. What made Tell a hero? And yet I, for striking down a greater tyrant than they ever knew, am looked upon as a common cutthroat. In a letter attempting to justify his actions, Booth wrote: When Caesar had conquered the enemies of Rome and the power that was his menaced the liberties of the people, Brutus arose and slew him. The stroke of his dagger was guided by his love of Rome. It was the spirit and ambition of Caesar that Brutus struck at. Oh, that we could come by Caesar’s spirit, And not dismember Caesar. But, alas! Ceasar must bleed for it. Booth, a man steeped since birth in Shakespearean drama, sought the death of Lincoln as Shakespeare’s Brutus did Caesar’s. This fear stemmed not from what the president had done, but from the belief that with his enemies conquered, Lincoln would keep his war powers and reign as a tyrant. This gets to one of the most tragic elements of Lincoln’s assassination, positively Shakespearean in its awfulness. John Wilkes Booth failed to realize that with the war over, Lincoln was the best friend the South had. And Booth had a role to play. The greatest of his life. A Terrible Missed Opportunity? Lincoln wanted a gentle reconciliation between North and South, “with malice toward none, and charity for all.” Many powerful forces around him had plenty of malice toward the Confederacy, and no mood for charity. Those in the South whose towns had been laid waste and their sons laid to rest by the hundreds of thousands, would also have trouble with reconciliation. Lincoln’s mission of unifying the country in peace looked to be as difficult as winning the war. He would need all the help he could get. Author Michael Kauffman discovered an intriguing tidbit when researching his book “American Brutus.” A worker at Ford’s Theater saw Booth hand an attendant a card, and the attendant bring the card into the Presidential Box. What happened next is not known. But is it not possible that Lincoln received Booth’s card, and knowing Booth’s fame, his oratory gifts and his sympathies, realized the actor could prove very valuable in helping “bind the nation’s wounds”? Who better than America’s First Family of Theater to help bring the nation together? Perhaps the theater-loving president even knew the three acting Booth brothers would be sharing the stage at a benefit the following week. With the war over and the comedy romp “Our American Cousin” playing out beneath him, did Lincoln see in Booth’s card a golden opportunity? Is it not likely an excited Lincoln told the attendant, “Yes, send Mr. Booth in”? Rather than summon a potential partner, Lincoln summoned his own executioner. Booth killed not only the president, but all hope for a gentle reconciliation. How much better for his beloved South had Booth pulled up a chair instead of a pistol? How much better for our nation and their own dreams if liberals sought Trump’s cooperation rather than destruction?The future is in their hands. The 55% who believe Trump’s assassination would be justified would heed well the lesson of John Wilkes Booth. After being cornered in a barn in Port Royal, Virginia and shot, Booth looked down at his hands and uttered his final words: “Useless. Useless.” Tyler DurdenTue, 04/15/2025 - 22:35

China’s first-quarter gross domestic product expanded by 5.4%, higher than expected. Beijing replaced its vice minister of commerce, who also holds the role of top trade official. U.S. markets fell slightly as the VIX index pulled back from a high. Nvidia will take a quarterly charge of about $5.5 billion tied to exporting H20 graphics processing units to China. United Airlines took an unusual step of offering two earnings outlooks. The U.S. retail sales report, out Wednesday, could be deceptive.Airplanes are one of the few modes of transport that get you from your place of origin to your destination in a mostly straight line. But United Airlines, one of the biggest carriers in the U.S., doesn’t have the luxury of a direct route when it comes to predicting its finances. The airline on Tuesday offered two full-year earnings estimates: One is its original stemming from January; the other, a newly revised forecast if there is a recession.On the one hand, it’s an acknowledgement that it’s impossible to predict the economy — think about how many analysts were certain a recession would strike the U.S. in 2023. On the other, it’s uncommon for companies to do so, reflecting the heightened volatility in the economy because of U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration.In markets, however, volatility seems to be subsiding for now, according to the CBOE Volatility Index, or the VIX, which is seen as Wall Street’s “fear gauge.” Stocks retreated Tuesday, but they were marginal drops compared with the huge plunges the last week. The journey now, then, is relatively smoother, but as United Airlines’ unusual move suggests, turbulence could still be ahead.What you need to know todayChina’s economy heats upChina’s economy expanded by 5.4% in the first quarter, according to data from National Statistics Bureau on Wednesday, higher than the 5.1% growth expected in a Reuters poll. Better-than-expected retail sales and industrial output boosted China’s economy. The former rose by 5.9% year on year in March, sharply beating analysts’ estimates for a 4.2% growth, while industrial output expanded by 7.7% from a year earlier, higher than median estimates of 5.8%.New appointee for China’s top trade jobOn Wednesday, China appointed Li Chenggang as vice minister of commerce and as a top representative for international trade negotiation, according to an official statement. That makes Li a key personnel as Beijing confronts a growing trade war with the U.S., in which talks or concessions have yet to occur. Li replaces Wang Shouwen, who previously occupied both roles.Nvidia to take $5.5 billion chargeNvidia shares fell around 6% in extended trading after the company said Tuesday that it will take a quarterly charge of about $5.5 billion tied to exporting H20 graphics processing units to China and other destinations. On April 9, the U.S. government told Nvidia it would require a license to export the chips to China and a handful of other countries, the company said in a filing. The H20 is an AI chip for China that was designed to comply with U.S. export restrictions.Volatility in U.S. markets retreatsU.S. stocks slipped Tuesday. The S&P 500 dropped 0.17%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 0.38% and the Nasdaq Composite was down a marginal 0.05%. The VIX fell to about 30 after hitting a high of around 60 last week. Asia-Pacific markets fell Wednesday. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index lost more than 2.3%, leading losses in the region. Declines of over 4% in Chinese tech giants like Meituan, Alibaba and Kuaishou Technology dragged down the index.Earnings estimates in a recessionUnited Airlines reported earnings on Tuesday, and took an unusual step of offering two earnings outlooks. The company left intact expectations issued in January, but also provided earnings estimates in the event of a recession. “The Company’s outlook is dependent on the macro environment which the Company believes is impossible to predict this year with any degree of confidence,” it said in a securities filing.[PRO] U.S. retail report could be deceptiveThe U.S. retail sales report, out Wednesday, should look solid as consumers are still spending money. Economists are also expecting a healthy growth reading. The details, though, likely will tell a different story. Here’s why investors should not be taken in by the headline number, wrote CNBC’s Jeff Cox.And finally...Bloomberg | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesTakeshi Niinami, CEO and chairman of Suntory Holdings at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Jan. 24, 2025.Tokyo has ‘many cards’ to play in U.S. tariff negotiations, says Japanese economic advisorJapan has “many cards” to play in tariff negotiations with the United States, according to Takeshi Niinami, senior economic advisor to Japan’s prime minister.Niinami pointed out that Japan has been the biggest foreign investor in the U.S. and the largest foreign holder of U.S. Treasury bonds. Japan should therefore talk about more opportunities to invest in the United States, and will keep its massive stock of U.S. Treasurys, he said, adding “We know that the President is [very concerned] over the bond market,” referring to U.S. President Donald Trump.His comments comes ahead of a three-day trip by top negotiator Ryosei Akazawa to the U.S. for talks with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.

Equity Insider News CommentaryIssued on behalf of Lake Victoria Gold Ltd.VANCOUVER, BC, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- With gold recently breaking above $3,200 per ounce, major banks are revising their forecasts even higher—UBS now sees gold hitting $3,500, while Deutsche Bank is targeting $3,700. As economic uncertainty continues to escalate, gold's parabolic price action is drawing renewed attention from investors looking for safe havens and inflation protection. Many are turning to physical bullion and gold ETFs, but a growing number are also eyeing gold mining stocks, which can offer amplified exposure to rising gold prices. Amid this momentum, several gold-focused companies are generating fresh interest, including Lake Victoria Gold (TSXV:LVG) (OTCQB:LVGLF), Integra Resource Corp. (NYSE-American: ITRG) (TSXV:ITR), GoldMining Inc. (NYSE-American: GLDG), Freegold Ventures Limited (TSX:FVL) (OTCQX:FGOVF), and Vox Royalty Corp. (NASDAQ:VOXR) (TSX:VOXR). Gold mining stocks have been steadily gaining ground alongside the precious metal's historic run. While large-cap miners have seen their stock prices pop off, several junior exploration companies are also making headlines with encouraging drill results that could signal major upside potential.Lake Victoria Gold (TSXV:LVG) (OTCQB:LVGLF), an emerging East African gold developer, recently secured four new Mining Licenses at its Tembo Project in northern Tanzania, marking a major step forward in its development strategy."The approval of our Mining Licenses is a pivotal step forward for the Tembo Project," said Marc Cernovitch, President & CEO of Lake Victoria Gold. "We have always believed in the district-scale potential of this asset. With tenure now secured for the next 10 years, we can focus on evaluating the most efficient development options to unlock maximum shareholder value."Situated in Tanzania's well-known Lake Victoria Goldfield, Lake Victoria Gold's (LVG) flagship project has already attracted more than US$28 million in exploration investment, including the completion of 50,000 meters of diamond and reverse circulation (RC) drilling. This depth of historical work provides a robust technical foundation and positions the project with a meaningful head start compared to earlier-stage peers.The recent conversion of LVG's Prospecting License into four Mining Licenses represents a major step forward, significantly reducing regulatory uncertainty and paving the way for focused development planning. Each Mining License is valid for an initial 10-year term and includes an option for an additional 10-year renewal, offering long-term operational visibility.With extensive exploration data already in hand, the company has identified three high-priority targets within the Tembo Project area. These zones are showing encouraging gold grades and carry the hallmarks of potential resource growth as the project enters its next phase of advancement.At the Ngula 1 target, drilling has outlined a broad, mineralized corridor roughly 250 meters wide and extending at least 600 meters in length—open in both directions and at depth. This structural zone hosts multiple gold-bearing veins, with notable intercepts like 3.13 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold over 25.89 meters and an especially compelling interval of 22.18 g/t over 15 ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

U.S. stocks gyrated on Tuesday, as investors analyzed the latest batch of first-quarter earnings reports and enjoyed a recent decline in market turmoil.The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 106 points, or 0.3%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite each slid 0.1%. The three averages are coming off back-to-back winning sessions.Tuesday’s muted moves were in stark contrast to the volatile swings seen in recent sessions. The Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), known as Wall Street’s “fear gauge,” fell below 30 after hitting a high of around 60 last week.Bank of America and Citigroup added more than 4% and 2%, respectively, after exceeding analyst expectations for the first quarter. Bank stocks as a whole provided upward momentum, with the SPDR S&P Bank ETF (KBE) rising nearly 2%.Other major reports due this week include United Airlines and Netflix. Beyond earnings, Boeing shares slipped close to 2% after Bloomberg reported that Beijing ordered Chinese airlines not to take more of the company’s planes.Stocks received a tailwind into this week after guidance on Friday from U.S. Customs and Border Protection revealed exemptions from “reciprocal” tariffs for electronic products such as smartphones, computers and semiconductors. Still, comments from President Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Sunday suggested these exemptions might only be temporary.Despite recent gains, the three major indexes are still clawing back losses seen in the wake of Trump’s original tariff announcement on April 2. The Dow and Nasdaq have each slid more than 3%, while the S&P 500 has dropped more than 4%.“The worst-case scenario is off the table,” said Larry Tentarelli, founder of the Blue Chip Daily Trend Report. But, “the problem is we could get a headline at any time and the market goes down 3%.”Market isn’t ‘out of the woods yet’ with volatility around tariffs, Piper Sandler says Stocks may be due for more chaotic moves with tariff uncertainty, according to Piper Sandler.“Technically, we are ‘not out of the woods yet,’ as we’d like to see the SPX recover its March lows and make another ascent toward its 50-/200-day MAs at around 5,750-5,800,” analyst Craig Johnson wrote in a Tuesday note. “Investors are returning to the equity market despite the crosscurrents in the macro picture.”“We expect investors to temporarily shift their attention to earnings and away from tariffs, allowing the macro picture to settle down in the upcoming weeks,” he continued.— Sean ConlonInvestor Josh Brown buys NetflixBeata Zawrzel | Nurphoto | Getty ImagesNetflix is the best stock to withstand an economic slowdown, according to buyer Josh Brown.“I actually think it’s the best stock in the market for this year,” the Ritholtz Wealth Management CEO said Tuesday on CNBC’s “Halftime Report.”“That doesn’t mean I think it’ll go up the most, but I am not on the hunt for the hardest-hit stocks to try to bottom fish,” he continued. “I’m looking for resilience, because I think in a defensive bear market, that’s the number one quality of the stocks that by year-end will have performed the best.”Read the full story here.— Sarah Min ‘Rubber will have to meet the road,’ Mahoney Asset Management CEO saysWhile President Donald Trump’s pause on many of his tariffs lifted the market recently, Ken Mahoney, CEO of Mahoney Asset Management, still expects challenges ahead.“Big money may be looking to sell all rallies, as we still overall are in bearish conditions,” Mahoney told CNBC.Mahoney said the market is likely still trending downward, though that may not yet be apparent to investors.“At some point this rally will be tested and pullback,” he added. “That is where the rubber will have to meet the road to see the true trend of the market.”— Alex HarringGold miners hit highest level since 2012The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GLD) advanced 0.6% Tuesday, reaching its highest point since Nov. 2012.Some of the companies in the fund at new 52-week highs include Alamos Gold, AngloGold, Agnico Eagle and Endeavour Mining.The surge higher comes as gold prices have surged in 2025, due to a surge in safe-haven demand as President Donald Trump’s tariff policies spark uncertainty in the market.— Hakyung Kim, Gina FrancollaThe economy will stabilize going forward from here, says chief investment officerWhile lingering tariff uncertainty has taken stocks for a downward ride over the past few weeks, BMO Wealth Management’s chief investment officer believes the fundamental market backdrop still looks relatively solid.“Right now, I do think what we see is some strength in consumer ... we actually think consumer spending will hold up reasonably well,” Yung-Yu Ma said on CNBC’s “Money Movers” on Tuesday morning. “We actually think the environment going forward, after we’ve gotten through this rough patch, is reasonably stable.”The CIO added that the labor market may see some near-term softness, but will ultimately remain relatively healthy by summertime. Ma also believes investors are perhaps too pessimistic on their earnings revision for the upcoming earnings season.“I think there was some additional caution,” he said. “There were some revisions that were more based on uncertainty pulling down the revisions rather than actual commentary or economic data that was coming in.”— Lisa Kailai HanTrump has not ‘made a determination’ on raising corporate tax rate, White House saysWhite House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Tuesday indicated that Trump could be open to raising the corporate tax rate to help pay for cuts elsewhere.“I don’t believe the president has made a determination on whether he supports it or not,” Leavitt said when asked about the idea.The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted during Trump’s first stint in the presidency, is set to expire at the end of this year. Negotiations over extending or changing those policies are expected to be a prominent focus in Washington, D.C., in the months ahead.— Jesse PoundJamie Dimon urges Washington to engage with ChinaMike Segar | ReutersJamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co., speaks to the Economic Club of New York in Manhattan, New York City, on April 23, 2024.JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon urged the White House to engage in negotiations with China before Trump’s trade war escalates further.“I don’t think there’s any engagement right now ... it doesn’t have to wait a year. It could start tomorrow,” he said in an interview with the Financial Times.His comment came after Trump excluded China in his 90-day pause of sweeping tariffs. China struck back with 125% tariffs on U.S. goods after Trump’s latest executive order boosted tariffs on Beijing to 125%, stacked on top of a combined 20% fentanyl-related tariff imposed in February and March.“We should be careful. I don’t think anyone should assume they have a divine right to success and therefore don’t worry about it,” Dimon said.— Yun LiShort-term market trend is to downside, Wolfe Research saysThe market could be in for more pain, according to Wolfe Research.“We continue to believe that the near-term trend is to the downside,” Chris Senyek, the firm’s chief investment strategist, wrote to clients Tuesday.Senyek said “peak fear” tied to Trump’s tariff policy rollout is likely now in the rearview mirror. However, he said to expect more uncertainty during the so-called pause on many levies for 90 days, as well as the continued trend of the market being sensitive to any updates on trade policy.— Alex HarringHealth-care stocks drag on marketShares of health-care names restricted the S&P 500 on Tuesday.The S&P 500 sector slid nearly 1% midday.

The Trump administration has set up a situation where negotiating with multiple countries or multiple issues are going to take a couple of leads.

GodspeedMicrosoft has announced six titles will be leaving the Game Pass library at the end of this month, headlined by Sniper Elite 5. The shooter originally launched in 2022 and showed that taking out Nazis from long range hasn't gotten old. The most recent entry in the series, Sniper Elite: Resistance, is still available on the service. Have a Nice Death will also be heading for the exits, too. The indie roguelite came out in March 2022 and has players assuming the role of Death. Unfortunately, Death's subordinates are out of control, so putting them back in their place is the name of the game in the side-scrolling action game.Two other notable titles on this list include The Last Case of Benedict Fox and Thirsty Suitors. The former is a metroidvania game focusing on the titular detective, while the latter mashes up turn-based flirting, skateboarding, and cooking. This combo comes together quite well, according to GameSpot's Thirsty Suitors review.Kona II: Brume and The Rewinder round out the titles leaving the subscription service later this month. Don't forget that Game Pass members can purchase all of these titles for 20% off until they leave on April 30.In addition, Microsoft is also adding new titles to Game Pass over the coming weeks, including Neon White tomorrow and 2022's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on May 1.

The first iOS 19 beta is less than two months away, and there are already a handful of new features that are expected with the update.Apple should release the first iOS 19 beta to developers immediately following the WWDC 2025 keynote, which is scheduled for Monday, June 9. Following beta testing, the update should be released to the general public in September.Below, we recap the key iOS 19 rumors so far.New Design With Floating Tab BariOS 19 is expected to introduce a new design that looks more like the visionOS operating system on the Apple Vision Pro headset.According to Front Page Tech's Jon Prosser, iOS 19 will have a glass-like appearance, with added translucency for menus, buttons, and other user interface elements. He also expects rounder app icons, and a new floating tab bar in Apple apps.Bloomberg's Mark Gurman also expects iOS 19 to have a visionOS-like design, and he believes the design changes will be the biggest since iOS 7.End-to-End Encryption for RCSLast month, Apple said that it plans to add support for end-to-end encrypted RCS messages to the Messages app in future iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS software updates. That likely means iOS 19, macOS 16, and other corresponding updates.Apple promising end-to-end encryption for RCS messages indirectly confirms that it will be adopting the RCS Universal Profile 3.0 specification, which also includes several iMessage-like enhancements that were originally introduced in version 2.7 of the specification. iOS 18 supports RCS Universal Profile 2.4.Here are five new capabilities to expect for RCS conversations on iOS 19:End-to-end encryption, which will prevent Apple and any other third party from being able to read messages and attachments while they are being sent between devicesIn-line repliesEdit messagesUnsend messagesFull-fledged Tapback support for RCS messages, ensuring they always workiMessage conversations with blue bubbles have supported end-to-end encryption by default since iOS 5. In addition, iMessage has supported in-line replies since iOS 14, while the options to edit and unsend iMessages were introduced with iOS 16.Apple has not indicated which iOS version will upgrade RCS, but iOS 19 or a follow-up update like iOS 19.1 or iOS 19.2 seems like a safe bet.Live Translate With AirPodsAt least some AirPods models will be getting a new live translation feature with iOS 19 and an accompanying firmware update, according to Gurman.Here is how that feature will work, according to his report last month:The capability will work like this: If an English speaker is hearing someone talk in Spanish, the iPhone will translate the speech and relay it to the user's AirPods in English. The English speaker's words, meanwhile, will be translated into Spanish and played back by the iPhone.Google already offers a similar Live Translate feature.He also said iOS 19 will have bolstered translation capabilities, which likely means improvements are coming to the Apple Translate app.Revamped Health App With Coaching FeatureA revamped Health app is expected to debut as early as iOS 19.4 next year.Apple plans to offer a new AI-powered health coaching feature that offers personalized health recommendations, according to Gurman. The information provided by the coaching feature would be accompanied by videos from health experts that inform users about various health conditions and ways to make lifestyle improvements. For example, if the Apple Watch tracks poor heart-rate trends, a video could explain the risks of heart disease.Food tracking will be another big part of the revamped Health app, which could compete with the MyFitnessPal app, according to Gurman.Personalized SiriApple recently delayed the more personalized version of Siri that it previewed at WWDC last year. The company said it anticipates rolling out the Siri upgrades at some point "in the coming year," so the features could launch as part of iOS 19 later this year, although they could also arrive as part of a later update, such as iOS 19.1 through iOS 19.4.Whenever they launch, the Siri upgrades will include understanding of a user's personal context, on-screen awareness, and deeper per-app controls. For example, during its WWDC 2024 keynote, Apple showed an iPhone user asking Siri about their mother's flight and lunch reservation plans based on info from the Mail and Messages apps.The more personalized Siri features will require an iPhone model that supports Apple Intelligence, so you will need an iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, any iPhone 16 model, or any iPhone 17 model launching later this year.EU ChangesThe European Commission last month announced a long list of changes that Apple is legally required to implement in future iOS 19 and iOS 20 updates.The announcement clarifies interoperability requirements that Apple is required to adhere to in the EU, under the Digital Markets Act, which has been fully enforced since March 2024. The changes will further open up the iPhone and its technologies to competing companies and devices, and Apple is not happy about it. Here are some of the key requirements:Third-party smartwatches must be able to display and interact with iOS notifications by the end of 2025, which likely means iOS 19.2 or earlier.Apple must make its automatic audio switching feature available to third-party headphones by June 1, 2026, which likely means iOS 19.4 or earlier. This is the feature that allows most AirPods and select Beats to automatically switch connection between Apple devices, such as a Mac and an iPhone.Apple must make changes to iOS that allow for third parties to offer equivalent AirDrop alternatives by June 1, 2026.Apple must make changes to iOS that allow for third parties to offer equivalent AirPlay alternatives by iOS 20, or the end of 2026. iOS 20 is expected to be released to the general public in September 2026.The entire list of changes can be found on the European Commission's website.CompatibilityAccording to a reliable source of iOS-related information, iOS 19 will be compatible with the iPhone 11 series and newer.MoreRead our iOS 19 roundup for more details about the upcoming software update.Related Roundup: iOS 19This article, "iOS 19 Will Add These New Features to Your iPhone" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

A day without major tariff developments from U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is, for markets, a period of cautious optimism (or at least what passes as “optimism” in such unusual times). There was breathing room on Monday for markets to make tentative moves upward, especially after the news out late Friday of a last-minute exception for electronics from so-called reciprocal tariffs. White House officials are still making their rounds on major news channels to preach the sense of Trump’s economic policy. The latest to do so is National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, who, on Fox Business, said Monday the country would “100% not” fall into a recession this year.Consumers don’t share that faith. A Federal Reserve survey, conducted in March and released on Monday, is the latest in a series of consumer polls that show sentiment over the economy slumping. Any gains in the market, then, could last only as far as tariff don’t run further amok and cause economic damage, despite White House officials’ attempts to reassure on the latter front.What you need to know todayMarkets across the globe riseU.S. stocks rose Monday, aided by a slight recovery in tech names on news of a tariff exemption for electronic goods. The S&P 500 added 0.79%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 0.78% and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.64%. Asia-Pacific markets were mostly positive Tuesday. India’s Nifty 50 popped more than 2% at its open. Market watchers are awaiting the country’s March inflation figures, out later today. China’s CSI 300 fell around 0.3% amid UBS downgrading its forecast of the country’s 2025 economic growth.Hassett says no chance of recessionU.S. National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said Monday that “more than 10” countries had made “very good, amazing” trade deal offers to the U.S. He also said that there was no chance at all that the U.S. will experience a recession in 2025. A Federal Reserve Bank of New York survey released the same day — but conducted before April 2 — showed consumer worries in March growing over inflation, unemployment and the stock market.Volatility from zero-day optionsZero-day-to-expiration options are partly to blame for the wild swings in the stock market recently. Zero-day options, which are contracts that expire the same day they’re traded, have surged 23% in trading volume from the start of the year to April, according to JPMorgan data. “We find that 0DTE (+1DTE) have been instrumental in driving more intraday volatility, Maxwell Grinacoff, UBS‘ head of U.S. equity derivatives research, said in a note.Nvidia to build supercomputer in U.S.Nvidia said Monday it plans to produce up to $500 billion of artificial intelligence infrastructure in the U.S. via its manufacturing partnerships over the next four years.

Nvidia is also building manufacturing plants in Texas to produce AI super computers — the first time Nvidia will make one entirely in the U.S.Semiconductor support package amid probeSouth Korea on Tuesday announced a support package of 33 trillion won ($23.25 billion) for its semiconductor industry. That amount is about a quarter more than the 26 trillion won committed last year, according to a press release from the finance ministry, possibly in response to U.S. trade policy. The U.S. Commerce Department is conducting a national security investigation into imports of semiconductor technology and related downstream products, according to a Federal Register notice put online Monday.

Trump tariffs won’t lead supply chains back to U.S. — companies will go low-tariff globe-hopping: CNBC surveyIf China is going to lose some manufacturing as a result of Trump’s tariffs, the U.S. manufacturing sector won’t be the main beneficiary, according to a new CNBC Supply Chain Survey. The Trump administration says a reshoring boom is coming, but most companies tell CNBC that the costs could as much as double to bring supply chains back and instead a new search for low-tariff regimes around the world will commence.Nearly three-quarters of those surveyed (74%) said cost was the top reason for saying they would not be reshoring production, followed by the challenge of finding skilled labor (21%). The Trump administration has promised tax cuts for companies that bring back manufacturing, but the survey found taxes lower in the ranking of costs that impact manufacturing site decision making.

While Bostic noted the U.S. economy is in a “pause” and flagged investment hesitancy, he also reiterated that inflation remains elevated and the labour market is still tight—casting doubt on the near-term case for Fed rate cuts.Earlier, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent downplayed concerns over foreign dumping of U.S. bonds but said Washington has tools ready, including potential buybacks of off-the-run securities, to help stabilise markets if needed. His remarks came amid broader concerns about debt market volatility and the legacy of prior issuance strategies (Bessent lambasted Yellen for using similar tools!).In China, authorities in Harbin publicly accused U.S. intelligence agents of cyberattacks targeting infrastructure linked to the Asian Winter Games in February. Beijing alleged the NSA conducted a wide range of intrusions across sectors including energy and telecommunications, further straining already tense U.S.-China relations. No love lost between China and the US right now, is there?On the policy front, minutes from the Reserve Bank of Australia's April meeting revealed a shift toward likely further easing, setting the stage for a rate cut at the May gathering. Policymakers highlighted growing global risks—particularly from U.S. tariffs—and emphasised the importance of not undermining progress on inflation by acting too soon.Major FX traded mixed in not large ranges.

Mixing machine learning with fertility technology could be a science fiction plot. It can also be a company. Felicia von Reden started Ovom Care in 2023 to build software to make the often strenuous IVF process more efficient and more affordable. Ovom uses artificial intelligence to help doctors determine the right medication and dosage for each patient, and even identify the most viable eggs and sperm in a patient's body. “What makes this company unique is that we have two parts: technical innovation with AI and data, and medical care at the clinic,” she said. “Only if you bring the two together can you develop innovation that brings that value to the patient.” Valued at $22 million, Ovom has brought in $8 million in funding to develop the technology. Investors, including Alpha Intelligence Capital, have invested $8 million at a $22 million valuation. In 2024, it opened its first clinic and has treated more than 350 women.

NYPD Launches Quality Of Life Division To Clean Up New York City Authored by Oliver Mantyk via The Epoch Times,A new quality of life division within the New York City Police Department (NYPD) will begin its pilot program on April 14. The division will respond to non-emergency calls and community complaints, as well as focusing on clearing low level crime from New York City streets.The “Q Team,” as NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch calls the division, will respond to 311 calls and non-emergency issues including noise complaints, illegal mopeds, homeless encampments, outdoor drug use, and other issues.“We’re turning our attention toward the issues that New Yorkers see and feel every day—the things that don’t always make headlines but deeply impact how people live,” Tisch said at a press conference on April 10.Officers from existing community roles such as neighborhood coordination officers and traffic officers will be combined with officers specially trained for the non-emergency calls. New York City Mayor Eric Adams said that Q Teams “will be made up of officers who have already forged relationships with their communities.”Tisch said Q Team officer training will include: “[How to deal] with noise complaints, how you use noise meters with abandoned vehicles, how you work with ... vendors to get the cars removed, what sorts of paperwork you have to fill out.”Q Teams in different areas will be trained according to that area’s needs, she said. Some precincts have drug abuse problems, while others have abandoned vehicle issues.There will be no extra cost on taxpayers for the the Quality of Life Division—personnel will be sourced from internal restructuring of the NYPD, Tisch said. She said thousands of officers on desk jobs had been back on patrol to alleviate the police shortage.During the pilot phase, Q Teams will operate in the 13th, 40th, 60th, 75th, and 101st police precincts, along with Police Service Area 1. The initiative will be refined and tweaked over the next two months, and then expanded to other precincts, Tisch said.Q Teams will use data provided by a new program called QSTAT, which is modeled after the CompStat program.The NYPD launched CompStat in 1994 and the system uses real-time crime data to determine deployment of officers. It has since been put into use by other police departments, including in Nashville and Syracuse, New York.“New York City revolutionized under Bill Bratton, the former commissioner of the role of CompStat more than 30 years ago, holding precinct commanders accountable and using real time data to adjust police deployment,” Adams said at the press conference.“This tried-and-true method has spread and is being tried all over the globe. And we are going to use the same recipe for success this time to address quality-of-life issues.”Adams said New York City has recorded a continuous six-month fall in major crimes.“The first three months of the year [we] saw the lowest number of shootings in recorded history,” Adams said, likely referring to 1994 when the Compstat method of reporting began. Despite this, Adams said that people don’t feel safe. He said he hopes the Q Team is a solution to better streets. Tyler DurdenMon, 04/14/2025 - 22:35

Are you trying to discover what File Cabinet Keys unlock in Blue Prince? You might stumble upon these items while exploring the manor, though there are very few hints to go by. Our guide has the information that you need, but be forewarned of minor spoilers ahead.Where to find and use File Cabinet Keys in Blue Prince - File Cabinets guideSo far, we've found three File Cabinet Keys in our playthrough. They tend to unlock various containers all over the estate. As usual, our guide discusses clues and hints first, before we mention the exact locations and the expected rewards. File Cabinet Keys #1 and 2: Clues in the AquariumClues regarding two File Cabinet Keys in Blue Prince can be found in the Aquarium. However, you can only see them once you've fully drained the water using the Pump Room. Note that you might need to activate the Boiler Room as well just to make use of the reserve tank.In any case, the aquariums show dioramas of rooms in the mansion. Two of these have floors marked with an "X" symbol. File Cabinet Keys #1 and 2: LocationsThe rooms that you need to visit are the Patio and the Laundry Room. Oh, and you also need to bring a Shovel with you. You have to face the correct spot on the ground just to see the dig icon for your Shovel:Patio - In front of the left-hand side of the barbecue grill.Laundry Room - There are three washing machines to the right. The correct spot is in front of the middle one. File Cabinet Keys #1 and 2: Which drawers do they unlock?Now that you've dug up these items, it's time to figure out where to use the File Cabinet Keys in Blue Prince:The clue itself comes from the Safehouse, which can be accessed once you fully drain the Reservoir.One of the documents points to a set of terminals resembling the ones from the Security room.If you look closely at the CCTV footage, you'll notice that it points to a specific file cabinet in the Archives.In any case, go ahead and bring your File Cabinet Keys to the Archives and unlock the corresponding drawers:The Patio key opens the bottommost drawer, which has an Upgrade Disk and a birth certificate.The Laundry Room key opens the drawer just above that.The documents here have cryptic clues, though there are those related to the Sanctum Sigil Puzzle. File Cabinet #3: LocationFor the third File Cabinet Key, you'll want to head outside the manor to spot the dark tunnel that's filled with crates:Early on, you can bring something that could light torches to pick up the Tunnel Floorplan.Then, once you've completed the Laboratory Puzzle, you can collect all three Microchips.

Imagine you’re out with friends and you open a ride-sharing app to get to your next spot. You chat with them on the way, knowing that your privacy isn’t exactly sacrosanct in a stranger’s car, but still comfortable enough to talk. After you get there, someone sends you a text message with a transcript of your entire conversation during the ride.Anvi Ahuja, a Lyft user in Toronto, doesn’t have to imagine. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reports that’s exactly what happened to her. When she called the number that had texted her the transcript, she got a generic “not available” recording allegedly from the Lyft service.Ahuja was, understandably, upset. After calling Lyft later that night, she was told that the company was piloting a program that recorded and transcribed conversations into a centralized database. But Lyft later adjusted its messaging, telling her in a follow-up message that it was the driver who specifically recorded her—without consent—and said that it was taking “proper actions” to rectify the situation.The shocking revelation here is not that a customer was recorded. (Indeed, I can’t remember the last time I hopped into a ride-share or taxi without a dashcam that also had a camera pointed towards the car’s interior.) While a single vehicle feels more private and intimate than a normal public place, the fact is, the driver is part of a business and it makes sense to record stuff purely for the sake of safety.But the transcription of words, especially if it appears to be coming from a centralized service somewhere within Lyft itself, is more concerning. “These ride-sharing apps are big companies and people have a lot of sensitive conversations within cabs and they feel like they’re secure,” Ahuja told the CBC. Lyft has confirmed to both the customer and the CBC that it is running a pilot program that records and transcribes conversations inside drivers’ vehicles, but claims that those transcriptions are only “supposed to be sent to the ride-sharing company for reference if a security issue is reported.”According to Lyft, the system is based on the app Lyft drivers use while on the job. A Lyft representative claims that Ahuja’s experience is not related to that program, which is only running in select US markets with opt-in protocols for drivers. Exactly how the driver, or anyone else, contacted Ahuja with the transcription isn’t clear. Lyft drivers are able to communicate with customers via the app, but aren’t supposed to have access to the customer’s phone number, nor are customers supposed to have the numbers of their drivers.“We can confirm that the communication was sent via a masked number, and the driver did not have access to the rider’s personal phone number,” Lyft told the CBC. The company said it is investigating. How the person got Ahuja’s number, got the transcript of her conversation, and called with an allegedly Lyft-associated number according to the recording Ahuja heard when she called back? None of that is known.In Canada, recording business patrons must be disclosed along with the purpose of those recordings, even in a nominally public place. It’s typically achieved with some kind of signage. Ahuja claims this did not happen. Lyft’s Canadian recording policy directs drivers to follow local regulations and says that Lyft “doesn’t have direct access to the cameras, but we will know that you have a camera in the vehicle once you complete the registration.”

Meta's Monopoly Trial Kicks Off: Here's What To Know Authored by Joseph Lord via The Epoch Times,The fate of social media giant Meta, billionaire Mark Zuckerberg’s primary company, is on the line as a trial begins in Washington on Monday to determine whether the tech giant is violating antitrust laws.The Federal Trade Commission, which has spent the past six years investigating Meta, is expected to argue before U.S. District Judge James Boasberg that Meta’s acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp created an illegal monopoly over social networking.In the worst-case scenario for Meta, the company could be forced to divest both subsidiaries in a breakup on a scale not seen since the dismantling of AT&T’s telephone empire more than 40 years ago.Here’s what to know about the most important trial in Meta’s history.TrialThe case is being held at the E. Barrett Prettyman U.S. Courthouse, just a few hundred yards from the U.S. Capitol.It’s a bench trial, meaning Boasberg alone will decide the outcome, not a jury. That gives the judge extraordinary influence over the future of one of the most powerful companies in the world.FTC ClaimsThe Federal Trade Commission (FTC) investigation into the company began during President Donald Trump’s first term and was aggressively pursued under President Joe Biden.The FTC has taken issue with the company’s 2012 purchase of the image-based app Instagram and 2014 purchase of WhatsApp, a messaging platform that’s particularly popular outside of the United States.During the trial, the FTC is expected to argue that Meta’s purchase of the two platforms was part of a calculated effort to “buy or bury” any potential rivals to Facebook.In a 2008 email presented by the FTC in a past federal court filing, Zuckerberg wrote, “It is better to buy than compete.”FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson has said that his agency is “raring to go” against Meta but also that he’ll follow lawful orders from the president to close the case.Meta’s ResponseMeta has consistently denied the allegations of operating an illegal monopoly and has argued that the FTC’s case is both outdated and out of step with current market realities.A spokesperson for Meta said in a statement to The Epoch Times that the acquisitions were approved by regulators at the time and that the company has always operated competitively. He cited the presence of competitors such as TikTok, YouTube, X, iMessage, and others.The spokesperson said the lawsuit “defies reality” and that it would send a message that “no deal is ever truly final” if Boasberg sides with the FTC.The company has also suggested that dismantling its integrated platforms would harm users, who’ve come to rely on interconnected services and shared back-end systems.Since Trump was elected to a second term, Zuckerberg has visited Mar-a-Lago, ended the company’s controversial fact-checking efforts, rolled back diversity and inclusion programs, and staffed the company with GOP-friendly executives.The Epoch Times reached out to FTC for further comment but did not receive a response by publication time.‘Creaking Antitrust Precedents’Boasberg has heard years of pretrial motions in this case and has made clear he isn’t fully sold on the government’s argument.He threw out the FTC’s original filing in 2021, citing a lack of clear market definitions. While he allowed the revised case to proceed, he’s continued to express skepticism, warning in recent months that the FTC’s claims “strain this country’s creaking antitrust precedents.”Antitrust statutory law and litigation are among the most labyrinthine areas of the federal code.Boasberg has given both sides a chance to make their case in court. Witness lists include Zuckerberg himself, former Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, and executives from rival platforms such as TikTok and Snapchat.The trial is expected to last through the summer, with a decision potentially arriving by July.

What $1 Million Can Buy In Prime Real Estate Around The World Across global luxury property markets, $1 million doesn’t go as far as it used to.In Dubai, for instance, a $1 million dollar property in 2020 is worth $2.7 million today. Meanwhile, in Miami, it would be worth $1.9 million. However, in some markets, cracks are beginning to show amid higher rates and frothy valuations spurred by the pandemic.This graphic, via Visual Capitalist's Dorthy Neufeld, shows what $1 million can buy in prime real estate across 20 markets worldwide, based on data from Knight Frank.Luxury Properties Are Getting PricierBelow, we show the square footage that $1 million covers across luxury real estate markets, defined as the top 5% of residential listings as of 2024:As we can see, $1 million covers just 205 square feet in Monaco, with an average new build costing a staggering $39 million in 2024.Monaco’s appeal for the ultra-rich largely stems from its tax-haven status as it has no income tax, inheritance tax, or capital gains tax. Additionally, the scarcity of land met with high demand contributes to high property values.Despite economic challenges, Hong Kong ranks as the second-most expensive luxury market. While many properties of Chinese real estate tycoons have sold at a sharp discount since the collapse of China Evergrande, it still commands top dollar for the most exclusive residences. Overall, buying power has moderately decreased compared to 2014 levels.On the other hand, buying power has risen notably in London due to a falling pound against the dollar and a property market correction. Over the last decade, it has increased by 43%, the biggest jump across cities analyzed.In many ways, this bucks the trend of a majority of prime real estate markets globally. In particular, Dubai has seen buying power drop 59% since 2014, followed by Miami (-54%) Lisbon (-51%), and Shanghai (-47%) amid robust demand and rising affluence.To learn more about this topic from a real estate perspective, check out this graphic on the world’s least affordable housing markets.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) may have avoided the worst of Donald Trump's new reciprocal tariffs—for now—but top analyst Ming-Chi Kuo warns that the company's supply chain could still face major disruptions in the months ahead.What Happened: Apple has temporarily dodged steep tariffs on Chinese-made electronics, including iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and AirTags, following an exemption granted by Trump late Friday.However, TF International Securities analyst Kuo says this relief may be short-lived, and Apple's response could create new challenges.In a post on X, Kuo noted that Apple began stockpiling U.S.-bound iPhones after the Lunar New Year, which fell in late January, building up more than two months of inventory in anticipation of trade volatility.See Also: Netflix Debuts OpenAI-Backed Search Engine That Lets You Discover Movies And TV Shows Based On Emotions, Not Just TitlesWhile this move helps protect second-quarter sales, he warned it may lead to "a sharper disruption to the supply chain during the model transition compared to prior years."He went on to add that production lines in China that assemble iPhones ...Full story available on Benzinga.com
On late Friday, the Trump administration welcomed the weekend in the best way: by announcing that electronics — such as smartphones, computers and semiconductors — will be temporarily exempted from his so-called “reciprocal” tariffs, including the baseline 10% rate on all countries.That means such products imported from China will apparently not be subjected to the 125% tariff U.S. President Donald Trump slapped on Beijing (a 20% tariff will remain). Apple CEO Tim Cook must be heaving a sigh of relief: The Cupertino-based company manufactures around 80% of iPads and more than half of Mac computers in China, according to an estimate from Evercore ISI.The news is also a relief for consumers, who desperately need an uplift in mood, based on the findings of the University of Michigan’s latest survey. After all, it’s not just corporations and importers that are affected by tariffs. Laptop prices have already shot up, according to disgruntled comments on Reddit. The Nintendo Switch 2 preorder was postponed.Perhaps even Trump is keeping in mind the famous Wall Street adage: Don’t bet against the U.S. consumer.What you need to know todayTech exempted from tariffs U.S. President Donald Trump exempted smartphones, computers, and other tech devices and components from his reciprocal tariffs, according to guidance issued by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection late Friday evening. However, Trump and his aides on Sunday suggested those exemptions would be partially or completely reversed in coming weeks, adding to the confusion over abrupt policy changes.U.S. markets rise amid a volatile weekU.S. stocks climbed Friday to end the week on a positive note despite heavy market turbulence caused by the Trump administration’s tariffs. For the week, the S&P 500 rose 5.7%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained nearly 5% and the Nasdaq Composite jumped 7.3%. Asia-Pacific markets rose Monday. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index popped over 2%, leading gains in the region. Japan’s Nikkei 225 added more than 1.6%.Consumers in the U.S. are really downcastConsumer sentiment in April sank further, according to the University of Michigan‘s survey. It posted a mid-month reading of 50.8 — the lowest since June 2022 and the second lowest in the survey’s history going back to 1952 — below the Dow Jones consensus estimate for 54.6. At the same time, respondents’ expectation for inflation a year from now leaped to 6.7%, the highest level since November 1981 and up from 5% in March.‘Very close’ to a recessionBlackRock CEO Larry Fink on Friday told CNBC that he thinks “we’re very close, if not in, a recession now.” However, Fink said he did not think the U.S. was in a financial crisis and expects “megatrends” like artificial intelligence would persist. Bridgewater founder Ray Dalio raised similar alarm bells Sunday, saying the country is “very close to a recession” — but he’s “worried about something worse than a recession” if the situation isn’t handled well.Exports from China soarChina’s exports jumped 12.4% in March from a year ago, in U.S. dollar terms, according to data released by its customs authority Monday. That significantly beats Reuters’ poll estimates of a 4.4% growth and is the biggest increase since October last year. Imports fell 4.3% in March from a year earlier, more than economists’ expectations of a 2% decline.Singapore downgrades growth forecastThe Monetary Authority of Singapore on Monday eased its monetary policy for the second time in a row. The central bank also announced a 3.8% year-over-year expansion in Singapore’s economy for the first quarter, missing the Reuters poll estimate of 4.3% growth. The country’s Ministry of Trade and Industry cut its gross domestic product forecast to 0%-2% for 2025, down from its previous outlook of 1%-3%.[PRO] What would Buffett do?Warren Buffett began 2025 with the most cash he’s ever had on hand.

This is CNBC’s live blog covering European markets.European stock markets are set to soar at Monday’s open, as investors parse news on a U.S. tariff exemption for some tech items while earnings season kicks into gear.U.S. President Donald Trump’s extreme and fast-changing tariff policy has led to one of the most volatile periods on record for global equities. After a strong start to the year in which it had been outperforming U.S. markets, the pan-European Stoxx 600 index is down 8.83% in April so far, while Wall Street’s S&P 500 has lost 4.43%.In fresh developments over the weekend, smartphones, computers, and other electronic devices and components were exempted from the U.S. duties — though only temporarily, according to officials. U.S. Customs and Border Protection guidance indicates 20 product categories are exempt from the 125% tariff newly-imposed by Trump on Chinese imports and the 10% baseline tariff on imports from other countries, while a 20% tariff on all Chinese goods remains in effect.Trump on Sunday said he would be announcing the tariff rate on imported semiconductors over the next week, according to NBC News.Key questions for markets remain over exactly how long Trump’s pause on his full “reciprocal tariff” plan will last, and how various countries will seek to or be able to negotiate without resorting to their own retaliatory action. The European Union last week paused its own countertariffs for 90 days in order to engage in talks.Currency and bond markets have also been swept up in the action, with the euro climbing to its highest level against the U.S. dollar for more than three years and the yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury jumping from 3.99% at the start of the week to 4.49% by Friday.Meanwhile, investors must also contend with the start of first-quarter earnings season this week, with companies now facing a hugely uncertain trade environment. In Europe, luxury giant LVMH will report after the market close. Stateside, investment bank Goldman Sachs will report.It is relatively quiet on the data front, but inflation figures will be released in the coming days ahead of the European Central Bank’s April meeting on Thursday.Asia-Pacific markets gained on Monday, as U.S. stock futures rose.Goldman Sachs lowers oil forecast for 2025 and 2026Goldman Sachs forecasts a decline in oil prices this and next year on the back of the rising risk of a recession and higher supply from the OPEC+ group.The investment bank expects the Brent Crude to edge down to $63 a barrel through the end of this year and $58 next year. Meanwhile, it expects the West Texas Intermediate to average at around $59 a barrel for the rest of this year and $55 in 2026.Oil prices fell Monday on the back of uncertainties on the rollout of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff rollout.Brent Crude fell 0.37% to trade at $64.52 per barrel as of 11.35 a.m. Singapore time, while WTI dropped 0.39% to $61.26.— Amala BalakrishnerAsian tech giants climb after Trump’s pause on consumer electronics tariffsTechnology stocks in Asia-Pacific climbed Monday after U.S. President Donald Trump paused tariffs on phones, computers and consumer electronics.Taiwan’s Hon Hai Precision Industry – which assembles iPhones for Apple – was up 4.46% as at 10 a.m. Singapore time.Over in Japan, gains were led by Nvidia supplier Advantest Corp, which added 3.89%, and SoftBank Group, which was up 2.29%.Meanwhile, South Korean parts maker LG Innotek, which gets a substantial chunk of its revenue from Apple, was last seen up 7.26%.Over in Hong Kong, the best performers were Nio which surged 6.33%, Alibaba which gained 5.73% and Xpeng which advanced 5.6%.— Amala BalakrishnerThere’s still ‘mass uncertainty’ despite Trump tariff exemption being ‘right move,’ according to Dan IvesWhile the Trump administration’s move to exempt smartphones, computers and semiconductors, among other electronic devices and components, from “reciprocal” tariffs may have been a win for Big Tech, the market could still be facing “mass uncertainty” around the president’s tariff policy, says Wedbush analyst Dan Ives.“The White House made the right move in our view as tech leaders and the overall tech industry knew that if these tariffs went into effect it would essentially be a shut off valve for getting products to the US consumers,” Ives wrote in a note dated Sunday.“[B]ut still there is mass uncertainty, chaos, and confusion about the next steps ahead with all focus on China tariff negotiations being front and center and any progress on this game of high stakes poker between Beijing and DC being crucial to the markets and the economy this week,” he continued.— Sean Conlon
This comes as the MAS had previously eased its policy stance back in its January meeting, the first time since 2020.
Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers called Trump tariffs the biggest shock for middle-class families he'd seen since the 1970s.What Happened: Debating conservative political commentator Oren Cass on CNN’s Fareed Zakaria GPS on Sunday, the former Chief Economist at the World Bank and Secretary of The Treasury in the Clinton administration started by calling the Trump administration’s tariff programs “completely ill-conceived” for its objectives.He disputed his opponent’s claims that manufacturing jobs accounted for 8% of total employment, stating that only about 4% were actually involved in production, calling it a “very small and dwindling share” of the country’s workforce.Summers cites the example of the steel industry, which is now subject to 25% tariffs on imports, stating that there are “50 times more workers in industries that use steel, than those who work in the steel industry,” and these industries are now less competitive as a result of the tariffs and the “higher input ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

Spoilers follow for The Last of Us season two, episode oneThe heart of all things The Last of Us, whether it’s the games or the first season of the HBO adaptation, is the relationship between Joel and Ellie. It was brought to life in remarkable fashion by Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey in season one; the pair’s chemistry was the show’s undeniable high point. So it’s a bit of a shock that they only share a few minutes of screen time together in the season two premiere “Future Days” — and that their time together is strained to say the very least.That all comes near the end of the episode, though. Backing up a bit, the show resumes exactly where we left off, with Ellie saying “okay” to Joel’s lies about what happened in the season one finale. That episode saw him decimate the Fireflies to save the immune Ellie. The Fireflies were hoping to make a cure for the cordyceps infection that devastated the world, but it would have killed her in the process. “Okay” meant that she was accepting his story, even if she didn’t quite believe it. Fast forward five years, and things are tense — so tense that our hardened Joel is in therapy.We get to eavesdrop on a session with Joel’s therapist Gail, played by the always-wonderful Catherine O’Hara. I’ve been looking forward to seeing how she’d be used since Gail was revealed in an early trailer, and both her and Joel are having a day when they get together. Joel’s relationship with Ellie is apparently what drove him to meet with Gail, and he’s going on about the distance in their relationship — she barely talks to him, sulks and acts distant, and Gail isn’t exactly impressed. She notes that Ellie is acting like every other 19-year-old acts towards their father, and also says it's clear there’s a lot more going on between them.Pedro Pascal and Catherine O'Hara in HBO's The Last of Us season twoPhotograph by Liane Hentscher/HBOGail then opens up to Joel in an effort to get him to be honest (and because she’s a few drinks in) and drops a bit of a bomb in the process: Joel shot her husband Eugene (a character from The Last of Us Part II who we never met in the game). She says she understood that he had to do it — an implication but not confirmation that Eugene had been infected — but can’t forgive him for the way she found out and can’t help but hate him for what he did. Not the kind of thing you usually hear from your therapist, but that’s The Last of Us for you. She then gets Joel to tearfully admit he did something to Ellie, but when she asks if he hurt her, he responds by saying he saved her and then gets the hell out of her house. Season one showed Joel as a more vulnerable person than his game counterpart, a change that benefitted him given the expanded drama and depth of the show, and I’m glad season two is emphasizing that in a way that’s pretty unconventional for the post-apocalypse world.We also get a hint at the discord between Joel and Ellie via Dina, a new character introduced as Ellie’s best friend through a conversation she has with Joel. The two of them are getting along just fine; Joel even calls her “kiddo,” showing a similar dad-like affection for Dina that he usually does with Ellie. After a little chat she asks him point blank why Ellie’s angry with him, and he responds with more vagaries about the two of them figuring out what it’s like being a father and daughter at her age while asking Dina to keep the therapy sessions he’s having a secret — his therapy-speak when discussing how he’s dealing with everything was just too on the nose for her to miss.Isabela Merced and Bella Ramsey in The Last of Us season twoPhotograph by Liane Hentscher/HBOBut the most pivotal scene in this exposition-heavy episode is the New Year’s Eve party where Dina and Ellie share a dance, share a kiss and get shouted at by the drunk town bigot. Just as Ellie is about to treat him like a clicker, Joel intercedes, shoves Seth to the ground and asks if she’s okay — which gets him a disgusted look and verbal smackdown from Ellie, after which he slinks away in decidedly un-Joel fashion.Things are decidedly unwell between the pair, and while it’s an intriguing note to start the story on, it’s also hard not to be disappointed about the lack of time together for Pascal and Ramsey. Having them at odds is a totally reasonable story beat — even if she was a normal 19-year-old, they’d be having their share of challenges. But the loss of their connection and the lack of interactions between the two put a subdued mood over everything, something that episode writer / director and showrunner Craig Mazin certainly intended and will exploit throughout the season.Photograph by Liane Hentscher/HBOMazin also paid tribute to the game in some lovely ways in this episode, particularly with the town party scene. Right from the start of season one, I expected to see more scenes from the game done nearly note-for-note in the show, and my expectations have been largely defied throughout, right from the start of the series’ first episode. It’s been clear that the goal of the show is not to reproduce all of the game’s iconic scenes but expand on it while still picking the right moments to deploy some tributes to the source material. The party scene is a perfect example, starting off with a shot of Ellie’s back as she looks over the merriment in front of her; what follows is nearly identical to the pivotal game scene in dialog, set design and framing. What is different, though, is the timing — we’re getting this right off the bat rather than much later in the story as you’d find in the game.Similarly, the episode’s other most significant scene takes place right at the beginning. After that quick flashback, we’re immediately introduced to Abby, one of the second game’s playable characters. We learn that she and her friends are survivors of Joel’s Firefly massacre at the hospital in Utah, and that Abby in particular is keen on revenge. Mazin and co-showrunner Neil Druckmann have already discussed how they wanted to introduce Abby and get into her motivations quicker in the show than in the game, largely because players build a relationship with her through gameplay. In this case, though, we already know that Abby is after Joel, and the episode ends with her crew reaching Jackson. While “Future Days” focused more on scene-setting than action (with the exception of some pretty tense scenes of Ellie and Dina against some Infected), things are clearly going to ratchet up next week — and not just with Abby, as the show also teased a major Infected threat as well. Let’s get those flamethrowers ready for next Sunday.Infected score: 6/10One of the main complaints from fans of the video games during season one was a relative lack of Infected. The showrunners say they’ve changed things up in season two — let’s see if they’re sticking to their word.Episode one was mostly an exposition episode without a ton of action, but we did see Ellie and Dina stealthily take down a pair of Clickers. But the most exciting bit was seeing a Stalker in action for the first time in the show. It had Ellie completely fooled, even giving her another bite that she had to hide from Dina. Here’s hoping we see more of these creepers as the season goes on. And, of course, the threat of tendrils lurking in the pipe in the middle of Jackson promises bigger problems soon, but we’re not there yet. I’m giving this episode a 6 of 10 — there wasn’t all that much action, but the stalker reveal was intense enough to up this episode’s rating.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/tv-movies/the-last-of-us-season-two-premiere-future-days-highlights-the-fracture-between-ellie-and-joel-020029565.html?src=rss

You Can't LNG Your Way Out Of A Trade Deficit Authored by Tsvetana Paraskova via OilPrice.cm,Some traditional U.S. energy buyers, such as Japan, South Korea, and the EU, have signaled that they may be willing to buy more American oil, LNG, or coal.Higher energy imports from the trade partners could dent some of the U.S. trade deficits, but they will by no means fix or erase these.Commitments and contracts to buy more U.S. energy will not necessarily spare any buyer from tariffs.U.S. President Donald Trump insists that American buyers boost purchases of U.S. energy goods to reduce their large trade surpluses with America.Some traditional U.S. energy buyers, such as Japan, South Korea, and the EU, have signaled that they may be willing to buy more American oil, LNG, or coal to appease the President who has fixated on fixing the massive trade deficits America runs with most countries.Higher energy imports from the trade partners could dent some of the U.S. trade deficits, but they will by no means fix or erase these.For most countries, energy is the only viable increase in imports from the United States. Japan, South Korea, and the EU, for example, have expressed readiness to boost their LNG or oil imports from America.They did so immediately after President Trump’s inauguration. Nonetheless, tariffs followed. They are now paused, but the threat of more rounds of tariffs across the board is still very much present—just look at the whiplash trading and carnage on Wall Street.Even if buyers commit to significantly boosting their imports of U.S. oil and gas, the deficits will remain. On the other hand, U.S. exporters cannot provide the energy commodities needed to significantly reduce America’s trade deficits.A case in point is President Trump’s idea that the European Union should pledge to buy $350 billion worth of energy from the United States if it wants tariff relief.The European Union is ready to commit to buying more liquefied natural gas from the United States if that would appease President Trump and make him reconsider tariffs, the EU’s energy commissioner Dan Jørgensen said this week.However, $350 billion worth of LNG is roughly equal to some 40 million tons of the super-chilled fuel. That’s more than half of the EU’s total LNG imports last year of some 75 million tons, much of which came from America anyway, per the bloc’s statistics agency, Eurostat.Commitments and contracts to buy more U.S. energy will not necessarily spare any buyer from tariffs. Taiwan, traditionally strongly supported by the U.S. in its quest to shake off Chinese influence and continue to be a democracy, saw this firsthand.Taiwan was slapped with a 32% tariff, which has been halted for 90 days, although it had just made some big commitments to invest in the U.S., including in U.S. energy projects. Last month, Taiwan’s state-held oil and gas company CPC Corporation signed a letter of intent to invest in the $44-billion Alaska LNG export project and buy LNG from it as part of a move to bolster its gas supply and energy security.Unfortunately for Taiwan, in any negotiations with deficit-fixated President Trump, the value of its exports to the U.S. – predominantly semiconductors – vastly outstrips the value of the goods it imports from America.Taiwan wasn’t spared from one of the highest now-suspended tariffs despite being the only early committed investor in the huge Alaska LNG project, while Japan and South Korea are hesitating.This doesn’t give much assurance to other energy buyers that their commitments would satisfy President Trump.And even if Japan, for example, were to dramatically raise its oil exports from the U.S. to account for 10% of all its crude imports, up from 1.6% last year at WTI at $60 per barrel, the volumes would be worth about $4.8 billion, Reuters columnist Clyde Russell estimates. But Japan’s trade surplus with the U.S. was more than 14 times higher than this—at $68 billion in 2024, he notes.Moreover, Japan already imports U.S. LNG, representing nearly 10% of all its LNG purchases. It isn't easy to increase this amount due to Japan’s long-term supply deals with other LNG exporters and the simple logistics and availability of U.S. LNG exports.U.S. trade partners will now look to negotiate their way out of hefty tariffs during the 90-day pause. They can only hope for reasonable talks and deals, and that the U.S. and the world will avoid recession in the escalating U.S.-China trade war that could crush global energy demand and the U.S. ability to sustain its oil production at current levels.

Barcelona faces crucial financial decisions regarding teen phenom Lamine Yamal, whose current contract expires in 2026 and pays him an estimated €32,000 weekly. The 17-year-old winger, who finished eighth in Ballon d'Or voting after his first full season and is on one of the best bargain contracts in the world, is due for a substantial raise that could further strain the club's finances.Yamal has already played 2,236 minutes in league competition as of early April, plus another 1,200 in various cups, making him the fourth-most utilized player in Barcelona's squad this season. This playing time far exceeds what stars like Cristiano Ronaldo (1,080 minutes) and Lionel Messi (70 minutes) received at the same age.Barcelona is preparing a new offer for Yamal's 18th birthday in July 2025, with Portuguese super-agent Jorge Mendes already holding discussions with club president Joan Laporta. Making Yamal the fourth-highest earner would cost approximately €265,000 weekly, adding €12 million annually to Barcelona's wage bill.Mendes likely has higher aspirations for his client. To pay Yamal in line with his Ballon d'Or ranking would require approximately €420,000 weekly, amounting to an additional €20 million annually.Barcelona continues to recover from financial difficulties that began during Messi's final contract, which saw wages rise from 68% of revenue to 83% by 2020. The club still operates near LaLiga's squad-cost limits and faces constraints in transfer dealings.To accommodate Yamal's new contract, Barcelona must either reduce spending on other players or significantly increase revenue. The club could earn additional prize money through Champions League advancement and a higher LaLiga finish, potentially generating between €12.5-€26 million in additional revenue.Barcelona is also redeveloping Camp Nou, currently playing at the Olympic Stadium, which should eventually lead to substantial increases in match-day revenue despite short-term limitations.The club must also carefully manage Yamal's playing time to avoid injuries that have derailed other young talents. Barcelona has firsthand experience with teen prodigy Pedri González, who signed at age 16 and has struggled with chronic injuries throughout his career.Another cautionary tale is Ansu Fati, who received a six-year contract worth approximately €265,000 weekly after returning from a serious knee injury in 2020. Fati has since battled numerous injuries and fallen to the fringes of the squad, though Barcelona remains obligated to pay his substantial salary."If he's robust and he's physically able to cope with that load, then they will continue to play him," said Sean Cumming, professor of growth and maturation in sport at the University of Bath, regarding Barcelona's management of Yamal's development."I like to play all the possible minutes," Yamal has stated, showing his ambition to remain on the pitch despite potential long-term concerns.

How Reliant Are Foreign Automakers On US Buyers? With global automakers facing uncertainty from U.S. auto tariffs, the importance of American car buyers has never been clearer. For many automakers, the U.S. is a key market responsible for over one quarter of revenue.In this graphic, Visual Capitalist's Marcus Lu, visualizes how reliant foreign automakers are on U.S. buyers, based on analysis from the Wall Street Journal.The data we used to create this graphic is listed in the table below.Please note that April-December 2024 data was used for Toyota, Honda, and Nissan. North American data was used for VW, Audi, Porsche, and Hyundai.Based on this dataset, Honda has the highest reliance on U.S. buyers. In 2023, the Japanese automaker saw its U.S. sales surge by 33%.Honda has committed over $1 billion to retool its Ohio manufacturing plants to be able to produce gasoline, hybrid, and EV models all on the same production line.Additionally, in partnership with LG Energy Solution, Honda is investing $4.4 billion in a new battery production facility in Ohio.A Background on U.S. Auto TariffsAccording to S&P Global Mobility, almost half of new vehicles sold in the U.S. in 2024 were assembled outside of the country.The top five countries ranked by their value of U.S. vehicle imports are:Mexico ($78.5B)Japan ($39.7B)South Korea ($36.6B)Canada ($31.2B)Germany ($24.8B)Trump’s auto tariffs are intended to coerce automakers into moving their production to the U.S., though this is difficult in practice due to the complexity and globalization of modern supply chains.Automakers often rely on a vast network of international suppliers for parts and materials, and relocating entire production lines can take years and require massive capital investment.One automotive executive, speaking anonymously with CNN, stated that it takes at least three years for brand new automotive capacity to be constructed. By that time, a new administration could be in power, and the rules could change again.If you’re enjoying our content, check out The Best Selling Vehicle in Every State in 2024 on Voronoi, the new app from Visual Capitalist.

Critical Mineral Cooperation With Pakistan Carries With It Five Strategic Risks For The US Authored by Andrew Korybko via substack,The US sent one of its top diplomats for South Asia to attend the Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum in Islamabad last week, during which time he conveyed the Trump Administration’s interest in critical mineral cooperation with Pakistan and met with senior political and military officials to discuss this. These resources are integral to the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” and that’s why the US is negotiating such partnerships across the world with countries as varied as Ukraine, the Congo, and now Pakistan.Each of these three entail strategic risks, but it’s only the last one that will be discussed in this analysis. To begin with, the bulk of Pakistan’s mineral resources are located in its Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan provinces, which are respectively suffering terrorist insurgencies waged by the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA). The former is fighting to impose a radical Islamic dictatorship, the latter wants independence, and both are designated by the US as terrorists.Accordingly, the first strategic risk that critical mineral cooperation with Pakistan entails is that these groups target American companies and nationals in these two regions. This is a plausible scenario since the BLA in particular is infamous for targeting Chinese workers, who they accuse of extracting their region’s wealth. As for the TTP, it’s waging war against the partially US-armed Pakistani state. Both groups are therefore expected to consider American companies and nationals to be legitimate targets.The second strategic risk builds upon the first and relates to the US being convinced by Pakistan that the aforesaid threats to its mining companies could be mitigated through preferential arms deals. The Trump Administration would do well to think twice about that though since Pakistan’s much more significant arms relationship with China hasn’t made its workers any safer and perceived American favoritism of Pakistan by India could complicate their ties upon which a lot of the US’ “Pivot (back) to Asia” depends.Segueing into the third strategic risk, Pakistan might be offering the US critical mineral cooperation at this time not only to cause trouble in Indo-US ties, but also to relieve reported pressure upon its ruling military establishment by the America First faction. They believe that civilian-led democratic rule would facilitate the main anti-Chinese goal of the US’ “Pivot (back) to Asia” as explained here so the ruling military establishment that stands to lose from this might be trying to buy them off with a mineral deal.The fourth strategic risk is that Pakistan doesn’t comply with whatever strings the US might attach to a mineral deal in exchange for relieving pressure upon its military rulers. For instance, they might agree to distance Pakistan in some way from China, logistically facilitate mineral exports from Afghanistan if the US clinches a similar such deal there, and/or allow CIA drone bases for spying on and threatening Iran. It’s possible that these would just be false promises to secure a deal and enrich corrupt military officials.And finally, the last strategic risk is that the US gets embroiled in another “War on Terror” if “mission creep” leads to it fighting the TTP and BLA with Pakistan in order to secure its mineral investments. The “sunk-cost fallacy” could also play a role in these calculations too. Coupled with potential complications in Indo-US ties and the derailing of the US’ “Pivot (back) to Asia”, the strategic costs of critical mineral cooperation with Pakistan could far outweigh the expected benefits, thus making it a poisoned chalice.

Judge Orders Trump Admin To Unfreeze Funds Withheld From Maine Over Transgender Athletes A U.S. District Court in Maine issued a ruling April 11 ordering the federal government to release funding to Maine that was frozen over the state’s decision to disregard an executive order and allow transgender athletes in women’s sports.Conflict between the state and federal government began after President Donald Trump issued the order titled “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government” on his first day back in the White House for a second term.The Epoch Times' Travis Gillmore reports that in a 70-page ruling, Judge John A. Woodcock Jr. ordered the Department of Agriculture and its secretary, Brooke Rollins, to “immediately unfreeze” any money held back because the state chose not to follow the president’s executive action.Agencies are also barred from withholding future funding on similar grounds.Meanwhile, the court distanced itself from the debate over transgender athletes.“In ruling on the state’s request, the court is not weighing in on the merits of the controversy about transgender athletes that forms the backdrop of the impasse between the state and the federal defendants,” Woodcock wrote in his decision.He went on to explain that the decision was based on the Agriculture Department’s failure to follow regulatory protocols when withholding the funding.“In fact, the federal defendants have not argued in this case that the relevant federal laws and regulations for terminating federal funding of state programs do not apply to this situation, nor do they claim that they complied with the applicable federal law in the events resulting in this litigation.”The Trump administration argued that the court did not have proper jurisdiction to hear the case, and that Maine did not “allege irreparable harm.”Tensions boiled over during a February meeting with governors at the White House, when Trump and Maine Gov. Janet Mills sparred over the issue in a heated back-and-forth.When Maine opted not to prohibit transgender athletes from competing against women, Rollins sent a letter April 2 to Mills alerting her that the Agriculture Department was “freezing Maine’s federal funds for certain administrative and technological functions in schools,” according to the court ruling.In its lawsuit filed on April 7, Maine said it was unable to access approximately $3 million.The state told the court the money was used for programs that helped provide meals to schools, childcare facilities, and disabled adults.In Rollins’s April 2 letter to Mills saying the funds had been frozen, the agriculture secretary said the pause “does not impact federal feeding programs or direct assistance to Mainers; if a child was fed today, they will be fed tomorrow.”State officials celebrated the ruling and said it would help protect nutritional programs meant to benefit at-risk populations.“This temporary restraining order confirms the Trump administration did not follow the rule of law when it cut program funds that go to feed schoolchildren and vulnerable adults,” Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey said in a statement. “This order preserves Maine’s access to certain congressionally appropriated funds by prohibiting an unlawful freeze by the administration.”The Epoch Times reached out to the White House for comment.

Man With CZ Scorpion Charged With Pistol Brace Ownership, May Set Dangerous Precedent Submitted by Gun Owners of America,The Department of Justice is currently pursuing criminal charges in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, for possession of a handgun equipped with a pistol stabilizing brace, in the case U.S. v. Taranto.In response, Gun Owners of America and our friends at the Firearms Regulatory Accountability Coalition (FRAC) are urging the Department of Justice to drop that charge, which sets a dangerous precedent for the millions of Americans who possess up to 40 million such firearms.In 2021, the Biden Administration tasked the ATF with targeting and cracking down on firearms equipped with accessories known as "pistol braces." These accessories were originally designed to allow disabled gun owners to "brace" a handgun against their forearm, aiding in shooting longer and heavier firearms with one hand. For years, ATF approved the devices for use on pistols of all kinds, and promised that the mere attachment of such accessories to handguns did not transform them into short-barreled rifles. That was until the Biden Administration decided to target pistol braces for elimination at the behest of anti-gun billionaire donors. According to a study from the Congressional Research Service, up to 40 million of these firearms are in private ownership throughout the country. But that wasn't going to stop Biden's Department of Justice and ATF from working to make owners of these pistol-brace-equipped firearms into felons with the stroke of a pen.To do this, ATF decided to reclassify virtually all pistols with stabilizing braces as "short-barreled rifles" falling under the regulation of the 1934 National Firearms Act and requiring registration. Failing to comply with ATF's reclassification and registration scheme could have landed gun owners in prison for ten years in addition to a $250,000 fine. But thanks to numerous lawsuits from groups like Gun Owners of America, FRAC, and others, Biden's pistol brace rule is currently enjoined by numerous courts and even vacated by one. Translation from legalese? Biden's rule is no longer in effect, and ATF has been ordered not to enforce it.But this hasn't stopped anti-gun bureaucrats at ATF from attempting to continue to enforce the underlying legal theories that inspired the rule in the first place. And now, we have our first example of this in the case U.S. v. Taranto. Anti-gun holdovers from the Biden Administration in the DOJ & ATF know that charging an innocent gun owner with NFA violations for a pistol brace, and nothing more, is not going to stand up, so they had to find a case where someone committed other offenses serious enough that the additional charge for violating the NFA could create a successful precedent, but wouldn't be the centerpiece of the case. And that's precisely what they found in U.S. v. Taranto. But before we get into the details of the case, let me just point out that GOA & FRAC's interest in this case is the NFA charge for possessing a pistol-braced handgun, nothing else. We state this clearly in our letter when we say: "We express no opinion on any of the other unrelated charges levied against Mr. Taranto."This is because Taranto's case stems from an incident on June 28, 2023, where Taranto was stopped by the Secret Service and FBI in Washington DC and charged with the possession of a firearm, and magazines. But in the hours leading up to his arrest, Taranto had engaged in what charging documents describe as "erratic" behavior, was livestreaming himself and, according to charging documents, "suggested that he had outfitted his vehicle with a detonator."He then drove his car into DC, specifically into the Kalorama neighborhood, and into an area monitored by the Secret Service, because of its proximity to important government figures. When the Secret Service approached him, he fled into the woods—the officers gave chase.And eventually, when the Secret Service arrested him, and conducted a search of his vehicle, they found a CZ Scorpion pistol equipped with a brace, and more.Taranto was charged with numerous offenses but, interestingly, according to his inditement, Taranto's pistol is charged as both a handgun, in violation of Washington DC's licensing provisions, and also a short-barreled rifle, in violation of the National Firearms Act.How can a firearm be both a rifle and a handgun at the same time?The answer is, of course, that it isn't, and the DOJ's internally conflicting position shows that the government is using the NFA charge for a sinister reason and may be a sign of a larger problem.In a brief filed by the DOJ lawyers opposing Taranto's motion to dismiss, the U.S. Attorneys had this to say:"ATF is not barred from continuing to enforce the underlying statute as it always has: by making case-by-case determinations about whether particular braced firearms constitute "rifles" under the statute. And of course, because the rule reflects ATF's best understanding of the statute, those determinations will naturally tend to look substantially like the determinations that would follow from applying the clear framework outlined in the rule."Translation? Even though ATF is currently barred from enforcing the pistol brace rule, it claims that nothing stops it from enforcing the statute—using, of course, the same legal theories on which the rule is based. If this sort of logic -- that appeals only to bureaucrats -- makes your eyes burn, you're not alone.This is undoubtedly a bad sign for the direction of ATF. Even though the pistol brace rule has been enjoined and vacated, ATF insists it can still charge pistol brace crimes, using the very same theories from its repudiated rule.Even under a Trump administration, it appears that career anti-gun bureaucrats within ATF, along with some holdover prosecutors at the DOJ, just aren't willing to give up their anti-gun agenda.This is why GOA has teamed up with FRAC to send a letter, this time to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington, DC, asking that office to investigate this federal government overreach and dismiss the pistol brace charge against Taranto.We are hopeful that, thanks to President Trump's executive order on protecting Second Amendment rights, this charge will be dismissed, thereby protecting millions of law-abiding gun owners from continuing ATF overreach.Again, this case—and GOA's interest—has nothing to do with Mr. Taranto, but instead with the millions of other gun owners who possess firearms equipped with pistol stabilizing braces. If the DOJ pushes forward with this criminal charge against Taranto, then all of us are at risk. Tyler DurdenSat, 04/12/2025 - 21:00

"They put her in the prison and got her out. The United States government is paying for the men that have been sent to this facility; they literally gave millions and millions of dollars to El Salvador for payment for the men that are there. Why can't they just get him out?""That's a good question," her guest replied. "I mean, I looked up an article today that was from February from the Associated Press when [Marco] Rubio said, 'Oh my gosh. The president of El Salvador has made this wonderful offer to us.and he basically said, not only we can, not only is he offering to hold migrants, he's offering to hold American citizens.'""He's offered to do the same for dangerous criminals currently in custody and serving their sentence in the United States even though they're U.S. citizens or legal residents," he added before pointing out, "If you're doing. that you can get them back.""This is bull, okay? And they're playing games with this federal judge just like that lawyer said," he snapped. "They're sending somebody to the court who probably doesn't know the answer. Like all you say, 'I'm going to send you to court. I ain't going to tell you anything you can say.' So then the lawyer just goes, 'I'm sorry, judge, I don't have any answer to your questions,' even though these are basic questions."You can watch below or the link.- YouTubeyoutu.be

The Sahel: Emerging Center Of Global Islamism Authored by Nils Haug via The Gatestone Institute,The center of world terrorist activity and violent death is no longer the Middle East. The "Sahel region of Africa is now the 'epicentre of global terrorism,'" responsible for "over half of all terrorism-related deaths" worldwide, according to the respected Global Terrorism Index.The sub-Saharan Sahel is largely unknown to much of the world. It can be described as the large, mostly flat, strip, nearly 600 miles wide, located between the savannahs of Sudan to the south and the Sahara desert to the north.During the last ten years or so, according to the Royal United Services Institute, the world's oldest defense and security think tank, headquartered in London, the Sahel has undergone a "significant surge in jihadist violence. Armed actors take advantage of porous borders, fragile states, and local grievances to extend their operational reach,"Global Terrorism Index 2025, published by the Institute for Economics & Peace, reveals that the primary instigator of global terrorism during 2024 was the Islamic State (ISIS) and associated groups -- such as al Qaeda, Jamaat Nusrat Al-Islam wal Muslimeen, Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, and al- Shabaab -- together responsible for more than 7,500 deaths.Although the West is experiencing escalating terrorism in countries such as Sweden, Australia, Finland, the Netherlands, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland, the Sahel region evidently remains the "global epicentre of terrorism, accounting for over half of all terrorism-related deaths in 2024." Here, conflict deaths exceeded 25,000 for the first time, of which nearly 4,000 were directly connected to terrorism.A perturbing factor is that in Europe, "one in five persons arrested for terrorism is legally classified as a child." This is understandable, as children in Islamist-jihadist communities are exposed to Jew-hatred and the desire for an Islamist caliphate from a very tender age. The same statistics would apply to terrorist actors in the Sahel, as the ideology of martyrdom and sacrifice is ubiquitous to jihadism.Susceptible countries in the region include Senegal, Sudan, Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali. Unsurprisingly, the region's rich mineral resources – with Niger the world's seventh-biggest producer of uranium -- also attract attention. China and Russia are increasingly represented, while Western nations withdraw from Africa due to growing anti-Western attitudes. Specifically, the US base in Niger in August 2024 and France's base in Chad closed in December 2024.The consequence is, of course, that with the West's retreat, ISIS has free rein to action their visions of global influence. They are present in 22 countries at present and, as the report points out: "Despite counterterrorism efforts, the group's ability to coordinate, inspire, and execute attacks highlights its resilience and evolving operational strategies." In the remoteness of the Sahel, ISIS finds an accommodating environment to consolidate and establish a central base.Russia's Wagner mercenary militia, although rebranded as an "Expeditionary Corps," continues its predatory activities in the area, offering "governments in Africa a 'regime survival package' in exchange for access to strategically important natural resources."Covertly obtained Russian documents reveal how the group strives to "change mining laws in West Africa, with the ambition of dislodging Western companies from an area of strategic importance." The upshot is accelerating anti-Western sentiment, resulting in the local states seeking to expel hitherto entrenched foreign interests.A February 20, 2024, report by Jack Watling, Fellow for Land Warfare at the Royal United Services Institute, explains that there "was a meeting in the Kremlin in which it was decided that Wagner's Africa operations would fall directly under the control of Russian military intelligence, the GRU."Watling concludes, "This is the Russian state coming out of the shadows in its Africa policy." Russia's patent objective is therefore to "seize control of critical resources," and "aggressively pursue the expansion of its partnerships in Africa, with the explicit intent to supplant Western partnerships."Unlike the West, Russia is not particularly interested in countering terror groups such as ISIS but, instead, focuses on its core objectives concerning "critical resources" and replacing "Western partnership" in the Sahel. With the retreat of Western anti-terror forces, ISIS and associates have freedom to expand their activities, while Russia focuses on eliminating Western influence. The result is a vacuum of experienced Western counter-terror forces, a situation in which jihadist groups thrive.Fortunately, North African nations, such as Morocco and Algeria, realize the dangers of unchecked jihadism in the Sahel, which reaches towards their southern borders. To give effect to its objectives, Rabat implemented the Morocco Atlantic Initiative, which,"aims to provide landlocked Sahel countries with access to vital maritime trade routes via Morocco's Atlantic port infrastructure. The plan aims to foster economic regional integration to reduce dependence on unstable transit routes, while fostering Morocco's ties with its southern neighbours to counter instability, terrorism and illicit trafficking in the region in the long term."Similarly, Algeria, with its common "borders and historical ties to Mali, has always played a pivotal role in the region."In addition, some Sahel states are taking it upon themselves to counter jihadists in their domain. Recently, an alliance of three prominent Sahel states -- Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger -- "unveiled plans for a unified military force of 5,000 soldiers.""Each of the three AES armies are expected to contribute troops, tasked with conducting joint operations in areas of intense jihadist activity. In their view, establishing a self-sufficient military partnership is the most dependable way to safeguard sovereignty."This local move came about as a lack of available Western forces to quell jihadism - an absence brought about by the Sahel nations "severing long-standing military and diplomatic ties with regional allies, France, and other Western powers." In 2024, the three Sahel nations agreed "to tackle security threats jointly."Although a joint force of 5,000 soldiers is a fair starting point, it is to be noted that the region under discussion covers over 2 million square miles – a vast area. It is anticipated that Russia, China and Turkey, who already provide "bilateral military assistance and equipment" might partner, to some degree, with the Sahel forces to counter terrorism.Meanwhile, ISIS and al-Qaeda, with associates, extend "greater influence over trans-Saharan networks which will expand their external reach and increase the threat of external plots in North Africa and potentially Europe."In the result, the Sahel predominantly remains the locale of non-Western actors and local states, acting together for mutual benefit, including the possible control of terrorism. Whether or not efforts by these parties, with some North African countries, will have much impact on jihadism activity in the region remains to be seen. Currently, the significant strategic, political, and economic benefits in the region are reaped by Russia, China and Turkey. The West is nowhere to be seen. Tyler DurdenFri, 04/11/2025 - 22:35

New York City, April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- I. Introduction: Addressing Men's Health ChallengesIn recent years, a growing number of men across all age groups have silently battled common health concerns such as fatigue, diminished stamina, reduced libido, and circulatory issues. These symptoms, while often normalized as part of aging, can have a substantial impact on quality of life — affecting not only physical performance but emotional well-being and relationships as well.Many of these issues are rooted in poor circulation, low nitric oxide production, and nutrient delivery inefficiencies — all of which contribute to a slow yet progressive decline in male vitality. Men over 30, in particular, often begin to notice these changes. Morning energy isn't what it once was. Workouts yield less power. Intimacy becomes more about obligation than desire. These are not isolated frustrations — they're symptoms of more profound physiological shifts.Traditional solutions like prescription medications, testosterone therapy, and chemical-based performance enhancers may address these problems temporarily but often come with side effects, financial burdens, and dependency risks. Increasingly, health-conscious men are looking for natural alternatives that can deliver noticeable results without compromising safety.This is where Nitric Boost, a plant-based nitric oxide enhancement supplement, enters the conversation.Touted for its use of L-Arginine, L-Citrulline, Beet Root Powder, and a synergistic blend of botanical compounds, Nitric Boost positions itself as a comprehensive answer to male vitality. It is also tied to a trending concept referred to as the "Blue Salt Trick," a nickname for a nitric oxide-triggering mechanism involving certain mineral-rich compounds believed to enhance blood flow.This article explores how Nitric Boost works, what makes its formula distinctive, and whether its promises are backed by clinical reasoning, ingredient synergy, and real-world testimonials. For any man experiencing the subtle or significant effects of declining performance, this review is designed to offer clarity — and potentially, a path forward.The following sections break down the product's physiological mechanisms, ingredient formulation, user experience, and purchasing details to provide a complete evaluation of its effectiveness and credibility.II. Understanding Nitric Oxide and Its Role in Men's HealthNitric oxide (NO) is a naturally occurring molecule that plays a critical role in several physiological functions, particularly those related to cardiovascular health and muscular performance. Produced within the inner lining of blood vessels, nitric oxide acts as a signaling molecule that tells blood vessels to relax and expand — a process known as vasodilation. This expansion allows for increased blood flow, improved oxygen delivery, and more efficient transport of nutrients throughout the body.For men, optimal nitric oxide production is directly linked to a number of vital health functions. Adequate blood flow supports not only cardiovascular integrity but also energy levels, stamina, and physical performance. It is also a key factor in sexual function, as healthy blood circulation is essential for maintaining a strong and lasting erection. When nitric oxide levels are compromised, often due to aging, poor diet, or chronic stress, these functions can decline noticeably.Studies have shown that by the time many men reach their 40s, nitric oxide levels may be less than half of what they were in their 20s. This gradual depletion can lead to a range of symptoms, including fatigue, muscle weakness, delayed recovery after exercise, diminished libido, and, in many cases, erectile dysfunction. While these changes may not appear suddenly, their cumulative effects can significantly impact overall quality of life.Recognizing the central role nitric oxide plays in maintaining male health, researchers and supplement formulators have increasingly focused on natural ways to stimulate its production. Among the most studied compounds are L-arginine and L-Citrulline, two amino acids known to act as nitric oxide precursors. When consumed through dietary supplementation, they help the body synthesize nitric oxide more efficiently, thereby restoring healthy blood flow and energy levels.This foundational understanding of nitric oxide is key to evaluating any supplement that claims to enhance male performance or vitality. Without adequate support for nitric oxide production, such claims would be largely unsubstantiated. Nitric Boost, by centering its formula around nitric oxide precursors and synergistic plant compounds, aims to address this very deficiency.Boost stamina and confidence—try Nitric Boost today.III. The "Blue Salt Trick": Myth, Mechanism, and the Viral Recipe ExplainedIn online wellness communities and alternative health circles—particularly on platforms like TikTok and Reddit—the phrase "Blue Salt Trick" has gained viral momentum as a natural method for improving blood flow, stamina, and male performance. Though the name may suggest an exotic or medical-grade solution, the reality is much simpler. There is no actual blue salt involved, nor is there a singular clinical practice associated with it. Instead, the term is a symbolic reference to a growing class of DIY circulatory "hacks" based on natural nitric oxide activation.What Does the "Blue Salt Trick" Actually Mean?The phrase "Blue Salt Trick" is not rooted in scientific literature but instead arises from a blend of anecdotal wellness practices, simplified biology, and modern marketing. The term "blue" likely references improved oxygenation and blood flow—concepts often associated with vitality, stamina, and sexual health. The "salt" in question is typically Himalayan pink salt, which contains a range of electrolytes and trace minerals like magnesium, potassium, and calcium.When paired with citrus juice (typically lemon) and water, this mineral-salt mixture is thought to support adrenal activation, nitric oxide synthesis, and morning hydration. It is a simple, stimulant-free way to start the day with renewed energy and blood flow.The Blue Salt Trick RecipeWhile there are variations, the most common version of the viral trend includes the following:Ingredients:1/4 teaspoon Himalayan pink saltJuice of 1/2 lemon, freshly squeezed6 to 8 ounces of filtered or spring waterOptional additions:A pinch of baking soda (to alkalize and support digestion)2–3 drops of liquid chlorophyll or trace mineral dropsInstructions:Add the lemon juice and pink salt to a glass.Pour in the water and stir thoroughly until the salt dissolves.Drink immediately, ideally first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach.This simple tonic is often described by users as a way to "activate circulation," rehydrate the body and prime the nitric oxide pathway for the day ahead.Is There a Scientific Basis Behind the Trend?Although the "Blue Salt Trick" lacks formal clinical validation as a standalone therapy, its components are supported by physiological principles. Himalayan salt helps restore electrolyte balance, particularly after sleep-induced dehydration. Lemon juice offers vitamin C and citric acid, which may enhance arginine uptake—significant in nitric oxide production. Combined, these ingredients may help the body absorb nitric oxide precursors more efficiently when consumed later in the day, particularly if paired with supplements like Nitric Boost.From Trend to Therapeutic MechanismBeyond the viral nature of the "trick," the underlying science is grounded in how nitric oxide functions biologically. This gas molecule acts as a vasodilator, relaxing blood vessel walls and promoting increased blood flow. This mechanism is essential for oxygen transport, athletic endurance, and erectile function—areas often compromised by aging or poor metabolic health.The combination of trace minerals (from salt), antioxidants (from lemon), and hydration collectively supports the physiological environment needed for efficient nitric oxide synthesis, primarily when supported by key amino acids such as L-arginine and L-citrulline.This is where Nitric Boost enters the conversation. While the Blue Salt Trick acts as a supportive morning ritual, Nitric Boost delivers the clinically backed compounds that are directly involved in nitric oxide production. It contains a synergistic blend of L-Arginine, L-Citrulline, Beet Root Powder, Horny Goat Weed, Ginkgo Biloba, Dong Quai, D-Aspartic Acid, and Niacin—each of which is tied to improved circulation, stamina, or testosterone support.Nitric Boost: A Modern, Evidence-Backed Evolution of the Blue Salt TrickRather than relying on simplified home remedies alone, Nitric Boost expands on the principle behind the Blue Salt Trick using a formulation designed to optimize nitric oxide synthesis, hormonal function, and blood flow in a structured, measurable way. It removes the guesswork and variability associated with viral trends while maintaining alignment with the core goals of increased energy, enhanced performance, and cardiovascular support.In this way, Nitric Boost doesn't replace the Blue Salt Trick—it complements it. Together, the morning ritual and the supplement protocol can serve as a dual approach for men seeking natural, non-invasive ways to regain stamina, sharpen focus, and restore confidence in their physical performance.Nitric Boost powers performance where it counts.IV. In-Depth Analysis of Nitric Boost's IngredientsThe effectiveness of any supplement lies in the synergy and potency of its ingredients. Nitric Boost features a targeted blend of amino acids, herbal extracts, and natural compounds selected to support nitric oxide production, circulatory health, and male performance. Each component plays a specific role in restoring vitality, and together, they form a multi-pronged approach to optimizing blood flow, energy, and stamina.Below is a detailed analysis of the active ingredients found in Nitric Boost based on information available from the official product website and scientific literature.L-ArginineL-arginine is a semi-essential amino acid that serves as a direct precursor to nitric oxide in the body. Once ingested, L-Arginine is metabolized into nitric oxide by the enzyme nitric oxide synthase (NOS), promoting vasodilation and improved blood circulation.Clinical studies have shown that supplementation with L-Arginine may help:Increase blood flow to muscles and extremitiesSupport erectile function in men with mild to moderate dysfunctionEnhance exercise performance by improving oxygen deliveryIts inclusion in Nitric Boost is fundamental to initiating the nitric oxide production pathway and restoring circulatory integrity—especially in men experiencing age-related vascular decline.L-Citrulline DL-MalateL-citrulline is another amino acid that complements the effects of L-arginine. It is converted into L-Arginine in the kidneys, offering a more sustained release of nitric oxide. The DL-Malate form also supports energy production by participating in the Krebs cycle.Research supports the use of L-Citrulline for:Prolonging nitric oxide productionReducing muscular fatigue during exerciseSupporting better recovery post-workoutThe synergy between L-citrulline and L-arginine creates a more stable and long-lasting effect, helping men experience improved stamina and vascular health throughout the day.Beet Root PowderBeetroot is a natural source of dietary nitrates, which convert into nitric oxide once metabolized. It is well-known for its ability to enhance blood vessel function and has been studied for its effects on endurance, oxygen uptake, and cardiovascular support.Beetroot powder is associated with:Lowering blood pressure in individuals with hypertensionImproving time-to-exhaustion during physical activityIncreasing nitric oxide bioavailabilityIn Nitric Boost, beetroot enhances the foundational amino acid pathway with an additional nitrate-based mechanism for boosting circulation.Horny Goat Weed ExtractAlso known as Epimedium, Horny Goat Weed is a traditional herbal remedy recognized for its potential effects on libido and male performance. It contains icariin, a compound believed to support nitric oxide signaling by inhibiting PDE5—an enzyme that can restrict blood flow.Benefits of Horny Goat Weed may include:Supporting erectile functionEnhancing sexual desireContributing to testosterone balanceIts presence in Nitric Boost adds a performance-specific benefit that complements the core vascular effects of the formula.Ginkgo BilobaGinkgo Biloba is one of the most widely used botanical extracts in circulation-enhancing formulations. It is rich in antioxidants and supports blood flow to the brain and extremities.Scientific literature associates Ginkgo Biloba with:Improved memory and cognitive clarityReduced symptoms of poor peripheral circulationAntioxidant protection against vascular agingIn the context of Nitric Boost, Ginkgo may support mental focus while reinforcing capillary and microvascular function.Dong Quai RootTraditionally used in Chinese medicine, Dong Quai (Angelica sinensis) is valued for its circulatory and hormonal support. It has been shown to improve blood vessel dilation and may aid in managing hormonal fluctuations.Its inclusion in Nitric Boost may provide:Additional vasodilatory effectsHormonal balance for mood and energySupport for blood flow, particularly in synergy with other ingredientsD-Aspartic AcidD-aspartic acid (DAA) is an amino acid that regulates testosterone levels in men. It stimulates the release of luteinizing hormone (LH), which can trigger natural testosterone production in the testes.Studies suggest DAA may:Support healthy testosterone productionImprove libido and male energy levelsEnhance physical performance over timeAs part of Nitric Boost, DAA addresses hormonal optimization—another critical factor in male vitality and performance.Niacin (Vitamin B3)Niacin is a water-soluble B vitamin essential for cellular energy metabolism and vascular health. It induces a mild flushing effect due to capillary expansion, which can be interpreted as an immediate sign of improved circulation.Niacin in this formula contributes by:Supporting energy production at the cellular levelEnhancing blood flow and oxygen deliveryAssisting in the conversion of nutrients into usable energyIt works alongside the other ingredients to amplify the overall vascular benefits of the supplement.Together, these ingredients form a comprehensive nitric oxide support system that addresses the root physiological causes of poor blood flow, low stamina, and performance decline. Unlike one-dimensional formulas, Nitric Boost integrates amino acids, herbal extracts, and essential vitamins into a unified solution designed specifically for men's health.In the next section, we'll explore how these ingredients collectively address the most common health challenges men face—offering both symptomatic relief and long-term vitality support.V. How Nitric Boost Addresses Common Male Health ConcernsFor many men, the first signs of declining vitality are subtle: a morning workout that feels harder than it used to, a dip in bedroom confidence, or the slow erosion of sustained energy throughout the day. These symptoms, though common, often point to underlying physiological imbalances—many of which are tied to blood flow, nitric oxide availability, and hormonal fluctuations. Nitric Boost targets these root causes with a focused, multi-ingredient approach.Below are the most frequently reported male health issues, along with how Nitric Boost's formula is designed to help.Erectile Dysfunction and Circulation DeclineOne of the most direct and distressing issues men face is the inability to achieve or maintain a firm erection. This condition is often the result of insufficient blood flow rather than a lack of desire. Nitric oxide plays a central role in the vasodilation of penile arteries—an ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

Water Wars, Begun They Have Water conflicts are on the rise around the world, according to data from the Pacific Institute.In the first four years of this decade alone, there have been 785 recorded water conflicts worldwide. As Statista's Anna Fleck shows in the chart below, this is already 27 percent higher than the number of conflicts linked to water resources of the entire decade from 2010-2019, when 620 such events were reported in total. You will find more infographics at StatistaThe Pacific Institute’s data is categorized based on the use, impact or effect that water has within a conflict and can be subdivided into three main groups. The first is termed “casualty” and describes the loss of water resources or systems due to becoming intentional or incidental targets of violence. The second is defined as a “weapon”, where water resources or systems are used as an instrument or weapon in a violent conflict. The third and final group falls under “trigger”, which covers conflicts that are directly over the control of water. In this case, economic or physical access to water, or the event of water scarcity, have triggered violence.As this chart clearly illustrates, the frequency of water conflicts is growing exponentially.

Judge Sides With Trump Admin On Identification Rules For Illegal Immigrants Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),A federal judge has allowed the Trump administration to enforce identification requirements for immigrants present in the United States illegally.In a ruling on Thursday, Judge Trevor Neil McFadden said that a rule by the Department of Homeland Security to require illegal immigrants to comply with statutory registration and fingerprinting may move forward as plaintiffs arguing against it failed to “demonstrate that they have standing to bring this suit.”The case was filed on March 31 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in Washington, with the main plaintiff being the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, along with other immigrant advocacy groups.On Jan. 20, when President Donald Trump took office for the second time, he issued an executive order, “Protecting the American People Against Invasion,” in which he stated that illegal immigrants must be identified and registered with the federal government.Following his order, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced on Feb. 25 that the DHS would fully enforce the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), under which illegal immigrants will be tracked and compelled to leave the country voluntarily.Criminal penalties will be imposed on those failing to leave the country, failing to register their identities with the federal government and be fingerprinted, or failing to inform authorities of a change in address.“An alien’s failure to register is a crime that could result in a fine, imprisonment, or both. For decades, this law has been ignored—not anymore,” said the DHS announcement, referring to the Alien Registration Act, which was first enacted by Congress in 1940.The registration requirement is set to be effective from April 11, 2025.According to the alien registration requirement, all illegal immigrants 14 years and older who were not registered and fingerprinted when applying for a U.S. visa, and who remain in the United States for 30 days or longer, must apply for registration and fingerprinting.The INA requires that all “parents and legal guardians of aliens below the age of 14 must ensure that those aliens are registered.”Registered illegal immigrants over the age of 18 must carry proof of registration with them at all times, according to the rule.“Failure to comply may result in criminal and civil penalties, up to and including misdemeanor prosecution, the imposition of fines, and incarceration.”The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website states that, as part of enabling the requirement, the government has established a new form—G-325R, Biometric Information (Registration)—and an online process “by which unregistered aliens may register and comply with the law.”In its lawsuit, the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights argued that the DHS rule “reverses the government’s long-standing approach to registration ... in a manner that will cause confusion, fear, and significant economic disruption.“Defendants attempt to rush through these sweeping changes without any meaningful explanation for the change in policy and without the notice, public comment, and careful consideration that Congress requires to avoid exactly these types of harms.”The plaintiffs requested a stay of the rule.McFadden ruled that the plaintiffs failed to establish standing on an organizational level and on behalf of the organization’s members.The coalition’s “injuries are highly speculative, sounding in prospective fears about what might happen when the rule takes effect,” he said.The organization has also failed to demonstrate how a “mere requirement to abide by the law” constitutes a concrete injury.The plaintiffs argued that this “compelled admission” regarding their members’ immigration status violates the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.In response, McFadden said that the coalition had failed to “demonstrate that any of their members would actually be subject to criminal prosecution based on their answers to Form G-325R.”Meanwhile, according to the DHS, Immigration and Customs Enforcement made 32,809 arrests in the first 50 days of the Trump administration, a number that almost equaled the total arrests made in fiscal year 2024.The DHS said in a post on social media platform X on April 9: “Illegal aliens should use the CBP Home app to self-deport and leave the country now. If they don’t, they will face the consequences. This includes a fine of $998 per day for every day that the illegal alien overstayed their final deportation order.”The Epoch Times reached out to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights for comment.

"We Are Now A Global Destabilizer": Larry Fink Stunned By Trump Tariffs Speaking after BlackRock's Q1 earnings report on a call with Wall Street analysts, CEO Larry Fink said he was troubled by the size of President Trump's tariff war with China. "The sweeping US tariff announcements went beyond anything I could have imagined in my 49 years in finance," Fink told analysts. As of Friday morning, Beijing retaliated against President Trump's tariffs by hiking levies on U.S. goods to 125%, up from the prior 84%. The retaliation came a day after Trump hit China with an effective tariff rate of 145% as both the U.S. and China are locked in a heated, once-in-a-century trade war. "This isn't Wall Street versus Main Street," Fink emphasized, adding, "The market downturn impacts millions of ordinary people's retirement savings."The good news: Two days earlier, Trump announced a 90-day suspension of additional country-specific tariffs for countries that have refrained from taking retaliatory measures—an apparent attempt to isolate China and use tariffs to get Beijing to strike a trade deal. "Yes, in the short run, we have an economy that is at risk," Fink said, but noted that artificial intelligence and rising infrastructure demand present "transformative investment opportunities."After the earnings call, Fink joined CNBC, where the globalist voiced even more concerns...BlackRock CEO Larry Fink is in full panic mode over Trump’s new tariffs, warning they’re shaking global markets and pushing the U.S. toward deeper economic trouble.He says the U.S. has gone from being a global stabilizer to a destabilizer under Trump’s leadership.Fink also... pic.twitter.com/j5bBa8aqtU— Shadow of Ezra (@ShadowofEzra) April 11, 2025Yet Trump’s trade war is fundamentally about reviving America’s hollowed-out manufacturing base. Naturally, reshaping global supply chains will come with disruptions.To end the week, there are no indications that either China or the U.S. is willing to sit down and resolve trade disputes, while new evidence mounts that dislocations in global trade have begun to emerge:Amazon Cancels Orders, Walmart Pulls Forecast As Tariffs Take HoldChinese Sellers On Amazon Panic After Trump's Tariff BazookaTesla Quietly Removes Model S/X "Order Now" Button From Chinese SiteSeparately, HSBC Head EM strategist Alastair Pinder and the legendary Matt King (formerly Citi's top strategist who correctly called the Lehman collapse) debated on ZeroHedge on Thursday night with warnings about the incoming economic fallout from the trade war... Continuing on the theme of global trade disruptions, Goldman analysts Dominic Wilson and Vickie Chang provided clients earlier with a note titled: Too Early for the "All Clear" that highlighted four downside risks for markets:Substantial tariffs remain in place and the outcome even as it stands today looks considerably hawkish than was expected ahead of April 2. A simple thought experiment is to imagine that the current outcome—a 10% across the board tariff, a more than 100% China tariff, potential sectoral tariffs and large reciprocal tariffs to be implemented after a 90-day pause—had been announced. The implied roughly 15pp overall effective tariff rate increase would still have been a significant negative surprise to markets and its impact is still likely to be meaningful without further changes.While the pause to reciprocal tariffs reduces some key tail risks, policy uncertainty remains very high, and businesses and consumers are likely to continue to be wary of making long-term commitments when the path of policy going forward remains very unclear.Allocators are also likely to remain worried about the institutional and policy uncertainties that have led them to question their historic overweight in U.S. assets, while the recent price action has highlighted the risks both to longer-dated Treasury holdings and to the potential for simultaneous declines in U.S. equities and the USD that are especially painful for unhedged overseas investors. With some of the financial stress risk receding that often ultimately works to push the USD stronger (the left edge of the "dollar smile"), we think the case for ongoing USD weakness is intact, if not clearer.The turmoil has revealed some cracks in the ability of the market to function effectively in the face of these kinds of large shocks. Confidence that Treasuries will provide an effective "safe haven" in periods of extreme risk is likely to have been dented and the back end of the UST curve could remain fragile.What's clear is that global trade disruptions are emerging, and this risk suggests to Goldman analysts that it's still too early to give the "all clear" for markets.

In Verse Piece, Swords have been at the top of both the PvP and PvE meta for a while. So, to stay competitive, you want to have the best Sword you can. With that in mind, we prepared the following guide on how to get the Emiya Sword in Verse Piece.Table of ContentsVerse Piece Emiya Sword ShowcaseHow to Get the Emiya Sword in Verse PieceHow to Get Kanshou, Bakuya, and the Hero of Wrought TitleHow to Get the Trace On AbilityEnhancing the Emiya Sword in Verse PieceVerse Piece Emiya Sword ShowcaseEmiya M1 comboEmiya Z-move (101,000)Emiya X-move (55,200)Emiya C-move (68,500)Emiya V-move (74,800)The Emiya Sword deals a lot of burst damage because all of its moves have relatively quick animations. Damage-wise, Emiya is similar to Rowan and Lancer, which are two of the best Swords in Verse Piece. However, as of the time of this guide, Emiya's F move has yet to be added to the game. It is safe to say that Emiya may become the Sword with the highest damage in the future.How to Get the Emiya Sword in Verse PieceThe Emiya NPC is located on the Lost Isle.You can get the Emiya Sword in Verse Piece by interacting with the Emiya NPC on the Lost Isle. However, you need to have the following before you do that: 10K Gems, Kanshou and Bakuya materials, Trace On ability, and the Hero of Wrought title. Most of these can be obtained by farming the Emiya Boss.How to Get Kanshou, Bakuya, and the Hero of Wrought TitleYou need 7,500 Gems and 10 Boss Tickets to spawn the Emiya Boss.Emiya Boss deals a lot of damage, so equip your best gear before you fight it.To get the Kanshou and Bakuya materials, as well as the Hero of Wrought title, you will have to defeat the spawnable Emiya Boss on the (???) island. Both Kanshou and Bakuya are rare drops from this Boss. The Hero of Wrought title automatically unlocks for you after you defeat the Emiya Boss 25 times. The Emiya Boss in Verse Piece also drops the Black Flash Haki color and the Champion Necklace equipment item. If you end up needing more Boss Tickets to spawn Emiya, make sure to sell excess Mythical materials at the Ticket Exchange NPC on Bleach Island.Both Kanshou and Bakuya drop from the Emiya Boss.The Hero of Wrought title is excellent for maximizing the DPS of your sword.How to Get the Trace On AbilityTrace On is a rare Exotic-tier ability.You can get the Trace On ability in Verse Piece by using the Ability Reroll material to roll for it. However, the Trace On ability can be tricky to get, as it is an Exotic-tier ability. In general, the base drop chance of Exotic-tier abilities in Verse Piece is 0.25%. If you end up needing more Ability Rerolls, consider either fishing or trading with others for them.Enhancing the Emiya Sword in Verse PieceEnhancing the Emiya Sword to +5 will drastically improve its DPS.To enhance the Emiya Sword in Verse Piece, head to the Blacksmith Isle and interact with the Blacksmith NPC while you have Emiya equipped. Each try at enhancing a Sword in Verse Piece costs you one Enhance Stone, and there is only a 10% chance of it being successful. So, on average, you need around ~50 Enhance Stones to fully upgrade a Sword. The Enhance Stones are relatively easy to get as they drop from most Chests and while fishing.That concludes our guide on how to get the Emiya Sword in Verse Piece. If you are looking to take Emiya's damage to the next level, then make sure to check out our Verse Piece traits, race, and accessory guides as well.The post Verse Piece: Emiya Sword Showcase & How to Get It appeared first on Destructoid.

What games should you play on Xbox Game Pass?With so many options to choose from, narrowing down the best Xbox Game Pass games currently available can be a challenge. The subscription service has grown in size, offering a massive library of big AAA games, new day-one releases, and even overlooked gems--early 2025 Game of the Year contender Blue Prince is now on the service, having launched on day one. The library is so expansive that you're almost guaranteed to find at least a few games you'll love.To help you navigate the ever-shifting landscape, we've rounded up the very best Game Pass games available now. There are plenty more excellent games on Xbox Game Pass than the ones we’ve listed below--the service is loaded with worthy games. These are just the games we think every Xbox owner should play, and we regularly review this list to make sure we stand by our choices and rotate in newer releases. We'll continue to update this list as the Game Pass library adds new selections.More Xbox best listsBest Xbox Series X gamesBiggest upcoming Xbox gamesBest Xbox controllersBest Xbox headsetsKeep in mind that Xbox Game Pass comes in various tiers at different pricing levels, and the tiers can be somewhat tricky to navigate. Xbox Game Pass Core offers a smaller selection of games along with the online play functionality that used to be Xbox Live Gold for $10 per month. Xbox Game Pass for just the Xbox library is $15 per month, while Xbox Game Pass for PC is $12 per month. The best value by far is Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which includes both the Xbox and PC libraries, along with cloud gaming functionality to play the Game Pass selections on your mobile device, for $20 per month.For the purposes of this list, we looked at the whole Xbox Game Pass library available in the Ultimate tier, so if you're subscribed to one of the other tiers--especially Core--not every recommendation may be available. And while this list is a good place to get started, the library of games is even more expansive, and more games will be added throughout the year. Be sure to check back for updated recommendations. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate 3-Month Code $34 (was $50) See at Woot See at Amazon A Plague Tale: RequiemThe first Plague Tale was an unexpected hit from a relatively small developer punching above its weight. The sequel could have expanded its scope, but instead, Asobo Studio kept its narrative tightly focused on telling a human story set in an alternative French history. Though the rat-controlling mechanics have been expanded, the story is still concerned primarily with the family dynamics between Hugo and his protective older sister, Amicia. It's also a downright beautiful game, with lush environments that rival those from the biggest AAA studios.Read our A Plague Tale: Requiem review. See at Xbox Store Arcade ParadiseArcade Paradise is an inventive blend of management sim and retro-styled compilation. As the manager of a laundromat with some arcade machines buried in the back, you'll slowly build up your collection of arcade machines, transforming the business into a successful arcade. But you also get to play the arcade machines yourself, unlocking achievements and getting high scores that help the machines generate more money for your business. The result is a compelling gameplay loop that also has a surprisingly resonant story at its core. See at Xbox Store AvowedFollowing a dip into sci-fi with The Outer Worlds, Obsidian's return to an RPG fantasy setting is one of this year's biggest surprises. Set in the Pillars of Eternity universe, you play as a godlike--one who has been touched by a god leaving you marked in a way that's visually distinct to everyone around you. Your journey through the Living Lands makes a point to streamline some classic RPG systems, while giving you an incredible amount of flexibility in others. Combat is a particular standout, as you can mix and match just about any variety of weapons and abilities, and easily respec to experiment with new combinations. BalatroBalatro was a breakout release last year--in fact, it was one of our favorite games of 2024--and the one-more-round roguelike poker game has only gotten better with subsequent updates. It's now available on Xbox Game Pass, and came alongside a new Friends of Jimbo pack that lets you change the face cards to crossovers with games like Civilization VII, Assassin's Creed, Fallout, Bugsnax, and more. If you've never caught up with the incredibly compelling and clever game, now is the time. Blue PrinceYou've never played a game quite like Blue Prince. The first-person puzzle game has you exploring an empty mansion, but this particular manor house has a special quality: It's never the same from day to day, as the rooms appear as you "draft" them from a selection whenever you come to a door. The ultimate goal is to explore the mansion and reach the hidden Room 46, but the game's many puzzles and mysteries unfold and interlock in ways that feel constantly enthralling. And since it's on Game Pass, it's easy to recommend with your existing subscription. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6The Call of Duty series has been among the top sellers for years, but some CoD games are clearly better than others. This year's iteration, Black Ops 6, is the best the series has been in some time, and the first time that a new Call of Duty game has been available on Game Pass at launch. The campaign is a smart and varied action spectacle that keeps you on your toes as it explores paranoid thriller tropes set against global events in the 1990s. Meanwhile, the multiplayer's new omni-movement makes matches feel fast and fluid, especially with the addition of inventive new maps that let you explore the space in a variety of ways. A revision to the perks system helps you specialize in interesting ways. Call of Duty has earned its reputation for a reason, and this latest release shows why.Read our Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 campaign review and multiplayer review. See at Amazon The Case of the Golden IdolA logic puzzle game wrapped in a mind-twisting mystery, The Case of the Golden Idol has you solving a series of British murders by carefully inspecting dossiers and the environment to find inconsistencies. The inventive puzzle mechanic has you filling in missing words to solve the riddles. Xbox Game Pass has the full base game, but if you're itching for even more mysteries to solve there are extra Golden Idol Mysteries you can purchase as DLC. See at Xbox Store Creatures of AvaLots of games revolve around learning about strange creatures, but more often than not you're either beating them up or capturing them to have them beat each other up. That's not the case with Creatures of Ava, a story-rich adventure game that takes your role as a scientist and protector seriously. As you explore the alien landscape you'll have to protect yourself from aggressive fauna, but you do it with a creative take on combat that makes it family-friendly and humane. The world is rich with diverse biomes to explore and creatures to discover, and it's an easy recommendation for parents to enjoy with their kids.

As you solve puzzles to unlock new parts of these fictitious languages, you start to recognize snippets of meaning in speech and writing, and it meticulously unlocks new avenues to learn even more and venture further. The whole experience is built around the mythical Tower of Babel, as you make your way through a massive structure with various peoples speaking different languages along the way. See at Xbox Store Diablo IVWhen Microsoft finalized its acquisition of Activision Blizzard, it seemed like only a matter of time before the studio's massive library started to come to Game Pass. We're still waiting on a lot of the catalog, but it started with a big one. The latest in the beloved dungeon-crawling RPG series Diablo, Diablo IV, lets you delve into the deep and macabre world of Sanctuary to protect it from Lillith, the demon mother. With deep and immersive character building and a regular cadence of seasonal content to let you further expand your characters with new abilities, Diablo IV is not to be missed.Read our Diablo IV review. See at Xbox Store Doom EternalBigger, bolder, and more brutal than ever, Id Software unleashed hell on Earth with Doom Eternal, much to the delight of everyone who played this sequel. Pure action from start to finish and unrelenting when the armies of the damned were thrown at you, Doom Eternal is a metal journey through the apocalypse that takes no prisoners.Read our Doom Eternal review. See at Xbox Store Eiyuden Chronicles: Hundred HeroesA spiritual successor to the beloved PS1-era Suikoden series, Eiyuden Chronicles was the latest in a long line of game creators using crowd-funding to revive their most famous works. In this case, it was Suikoden creator Yoshitaka Murayama and the newly founded Rabbit & Bear Studios promising a new RPG with tons of characters to recruit and a high fantasy story of intrigue and warring kingdoms. The result is a real treat for Suikoden fans and RPG lovers more generally, with beautiful 2D artwork, a compelling story, and a neat base-building wrinkle. Sadly Murayama passed away shortly before release, making this his swan song. See at Xbox Store Forza Horizon 5Between its amazing visuals, myriad gameplay options, and bevy of content, Forza Horizon 5 is a racing game that anyone can enjoy. From a technical standpoint, it’s remarkable what the team at Playground Games achieved--everything from the meticulously detailed vehicle models to the lush virtual recreations of Mexico’s landscapes are visually engrossing.. Better yet, the gameplay is some of the best in the racing genre. Unlike the simulation-heavy Forza Motorsport line, the Forza Horizon series lean towards arcade racing, emphasizing player freedom in vast open worlds. Forza Horizon 5 doubles down on the philosophy, letting players focus on the type of experience they want--be that tense races against other players, single-player challenges and story content, or just chilling out and cruising the open road.Read our Forza Horizon 5 review. See at Xbox Store Forza MotorsportForza Motorsport goes back to the series' roots as a simulation track racer, with stunning recreations of high performance vehicles.

See at Xbox Store Gears TacticsGears Tactics cleverly applies the aesthetic and atmosphere of the franchise to a tactics game.

See at Xbox Store Indiana Jones and the Great CircleMachineGames' take on Indiana Jones is a masterful take on the famous relic hunter. The action is a tightly designed clockwork of action, stealth, and immersive-sim elements that capture Indy's famous improvisational style. The story is rich and engaging and belongs right on the shelf next to some of Indy's other great adventures. And the character and worldbuilding are all top-notch, which helps to sell Troy Baker's take on the famous character popularized by actor Harrison Ford. It's the complete package, and a great reason to subscribe to Game Pass.Read our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle review. See at Amazon Manor LordsThough it's still in early access, Manor Lords has quickly gained a following as a deep and engrossing strategy game that encompasses several different types of strategy at once. You'll build a city with complex social and economic systems at play, as well as take part in huge tactical battles against rival lords. Building your civilization from almost nothing and helping it manage trials like an unforgiving winter is so satisfying, and the depth of the game is made even more impressive by it being the work of just one developer. See at Xbox Store MLB the Show 24Baseball is an annual spring tradition, and recently, so is MLB The Show on Game Pass. The sports franchise game from Sony's San Diego Studio hits Game Pass on release day every year, letting you feel the crack of the bat right as the baseball season starts. This year's iteration, MLB The Show 24, brings back its Storylines mode with a new set of documentary-style tales regarding the Negro Leagues, and for the first time, Road to the Show features women as playable characters. Though parts are in need of a refresh at this point, the total package is still a satisfying way to play America's pastime. Read our MLB The Show 24 review. See at Xbox Store Monster Hunter RiseMonster Hunter World introduced loads of new fans to the Monster Hunter series, which up to that point had a niche but enthusiastic audience in the West. That game spent some time on Game Pass, but it's since been removed and you can play the more recent Monster Hunter iteration instead. Rise borrows several quality-of-life improvements that made World such a success, and adds another one: the Wirebug, a new tool that lets you easily and quickly traverse the map by swinging through the wilderness. Monster Hunter Rise is an ideal entry point for franchise newcomers.Read our Monster Hunter Rise review. See at Xbox Store Neon WhiteA fast-paced first-person platformer, Neon White is a fresh take on competitive speedrunning. You'll have to master tight vertically-designed stages within a stylish afterlife setting, taking down enemies with panache along the way. The breakneck pace is unlike anything else, and it's easy to get lost for a long time promising yourself just one more run. See at Xbox Store Octopath Traveler 2Octopath Traveler was a daring new RPG concept from Square Enix in which the story was told non-sequentially, as you could play as any of eight protagonists in any order, experiencing their own unique stories. Octopath Traveler 2 improves upon its predecessor in every way, taking to heart critiques from the first game and making a standout RPG experience. The new cast of eight characters are well differentiated with skills both inside and outside of combat, and their distinct abilities create interesting puzzle scenarios for completing missions and side quests. The combat system is rich with possibilities, letting you leverage their strengths in satisfying ways. And the story ties the eight hero narratives together into a cohesive whole. If the first game was an experiment, this one is the proof of concept. See at Xbox Store Ori seriesBoth games in Moon Studios’ incredible Ori series are worth playing. Ori and the Blind Forest and its 2020 sequel Ori and the Will of the Wisps are two of the best platformers available on Xbox. Both have stunning visuals and tell emotionally gripping stories that feed off of the atmosphere and well-drawn characters. While they are similar in terms of aesthetic and feel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps is more action-oriented, whereas the Blind Forest largely focuses on platforming and exploration. The Will of the Wisps gives Ori new abilities that help them square off against daunting bosses. Both games are brilliant in their own right, and are must-play platformers on Xbox. You should play them in order to get the full emotional weight of the story.Read our Ori and Will of the Wisps review. See Ori and the Blind Forest at Xbox Store See Ori and the Will of the Wisps at Xbox Store PentimentOne of the most unusual games on Game Pass, or anywhere, Pentiment is an adventure game set in 16th century Bavaria. As a manuscript illustrator sent to an Abbey, you're caught up in a series of murders. The decades-spanning story explores the idea of historical narrative and how truth is recorded and remembered across generations. It's really unlike anything else.Read our Pentiment review. See at Xbox Store Persona 3 ReloadPersona 3 was the game to really set the mold for where the series would go, essentially splitting the game in half. It's part dungeon-crawling, turn-based RPG and part social sim where you manage the life of a high-schooler who teams up with other kids to secretly combat monsters at night. Reload improves on the original version of the game in numerous ways, introducing quality-of-life features and improved visuals that make this the best-playing version of Persona 3 (even if it does lack some portions of content from prior versions). This is a substantial experience that will keep you hooked over its dozens of hours, with a great story, terrific music, incredibly slick-looking menus, and fun combat.See our Persona 3 Reload review. See at Xbox Store Pillars of Eternity 2: DeadfireThe first Pillars of Eternity was a thrilling study in old school RPG gameplay with a modern makeover, but its sequel outdoes the original in almost every way possible. A more confident follow-up that doubles down on its strengths while further refining its formula, Obsidian Entertainment's sophomore effort is an entertaining game filled with rich writing and easily-accessible gameplay for newcomers to the genre.Read our Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire review. See at Xbox Store Psychonauts 2It's safe to say that there's no game like Psychonauts 2 on the market, as Double Fine's return to the cult-classic world of Razputin Aquato and the titular psychic peacekeeping agency is an absolute mind-blast of imaginative design. Fun to play and packing an emotional wallop with its exploration of several characters and a deep dive into their respective psyches, Psychonauts 2 is both a hilarious and heartfelt effort.Read our Psychonauts 2 review. See at Xbox Store Sea of ThievesA live-service game that's not all about the shooting, Sea of Thieves is Rare's quirky take on a pirate simulator. It's gone through a lot of iterations since it was first released in 2018, so nowadays it's a full-fledged pirate simulator. You can crew your ship and sail the high seas, plunder other ships, find hidden treasure, and even deal with otherworldly pirate ghosts. Read our Sea of Thieves review. See at Xbox Store Slay the SpireSlay the Spire marries deck-building with roguelike systems to create one of the best indies in recent years. Throughout your journey up the Spire, you square off against monsters, uncover treasures, and expand your deck of cards. Slay the Spire's card-based combat is easy to get the hang of but requires trial and error to find success. While you have to start back at the beginning each time you die, you gradually earn new cards, which help you advance further the next time. It’s an intoxicating loop that makes it easy to want to try “one more time” before putting down the controller. Each of Slay the Spire’s four playable characters have unique decks, adding a ton of incentive to brave the Spire for subsequent runs after the credits roll.Read our Slay the Spire review. See at Xbox Store South of Midnight Compulsion Games has repeatedly designed incredible worlds that are rich in atmosphere and intrigue, and South of Midnight is no exception. Set in the American Deep South and inspired by the myths told by the people who live there, South of Midnight encapsulates the sights, sounds, and culture of a place rarely explored in video games and doesn't shy away from delving into the community's hardships and traumas to weave together a fantastical and oftentimes chilling gothic horror tale. The whole experience is brought to life with superb voice acting and a poignant soundtrack, transforming otherwise ordinary moments of combat and platforming into a cinematic experience that's well-worth experiencing.Read our South of Midnight review. TunicTunic, the long-awaited adventure starring a fox with a sword, is more than just a great Zelda-like. While it harks back to old-school Zelda games in terms of not guiding players toward the objectives, Tunic has its own approach to creating mystery and intrigue. All throughout the world you'll find pages of an instruction manual--really does look like one that would've been packaged with a game in the early '90s--that you have to piece together to learn about the world around you. It does a wonderful job replicating the thrill of discovery found in early Zelda games. Tunic is much harder than Zelda games from a combat perspective, but overcoming each challenge feels like a great triumph. Plus, any combat pains you may have are made worthwhile by gorgeous world that is a joy to explore.Read our Tunic review. See at Xbox Store Yakuza: Like a DragonAfter years of busting heads with the Dragon of Dojima, Yakuza: Like a Dragon came along to chart a new course for the long-running Sega franchise. Replacing Kiryu Kazama was the newly-paroled Ichiban Kasuga, a thug with a heart of gold who soon found himself caught in the middle of a vast conspiracy in the Japanese underworld. One other big change that Yakuza: Like a Dragon made was to its combat, as the game pulled heavily from classic Dragon Quest adventures to create a fresh spin on the RPG genre.

Maybe you're in a position where you suddenly need a new laptop to see you through the rest of the school year. Perhaps you've got a bigger tax return than expected and you want to treat yourself. Or it may be that you're a long-time Windows user and fancy a change. Whatever reason you might have for being interested in a MacBook Air, we've got another one. The M4 MacBook Air is back on sale for $949. That's $50 or five percent off. That deal is available for the sky blue and starlight colorways of Apple's laptop. But there's not terrible news if you prefer the midnight (black) look — that variant will run you just $5 more at $954. This deal is for the base model of the M4 MacBook Air. It's a 13-inch laptop with 16GB of memory and 256GB of storage. The M4 MacBook Air arrived several weeks ago and it instantly became our top picks for both the best MacBook overall and the best laptop for most people, supplanting the previous model in both categories. We gave it a score of 92 in our review. We appreciated the light and thin design, excellent keyboard and touchpad, fast performance and the terrific battery life. The 13-inch model we tested (and the one that's on sale here) ran for 18 hours and 15 minutes while playing HD video. Our only real qualms with the M4 MacBook Air are that it could use more ports and the display (while otherwise great) has a relatively paltry refresh rate of 60Hz. One of the best things about the M4 MacBook Air is that Apple actually lowered the starting price for this generation of the laptop to $999 from $1,099 for the M3. That's a very welcome change. The current $50 (or $45) discount makes things even sweeter.

Do You Think You'll Ever Know, Now That You Have Handed Your Mind To The Machine? Authored by Edward Curtin via Off-Guardian.org,We live in a 24/7 media society of the spectacle where brainwashing is cunning and relentless, and the consuming public is consumed with thoughts and perceptions filtered through electronic media according to the needs and lies of corporate state power.This propaganda comes in two forms: covert and overt. The latter, and most effective form, comes with a large dose of truth offered rapid-fire by celebrated, authoritative voices via prominent media. The truth is sprinkled with subtle messages that render it sterile.This has long been the case, but it is even more so in the age of images on screens and digital media where words and images flow away like water in a rapidly moving stream. The late sociologist, Zygmunt Bauman, updating Marx’s famous quote “all that is solid melts into thin air,” called this “liquid modernity.”Welcome to Operation PandemoniumSee, these experts purport to say: What we tell you is true, but it is impossible to draw definitive conclusions. You must drink the waters of uncertainty forever lest you become a conspiracy nut. But if you don’t want to be so labelled, accept the simplest explanation for matters that disturb you – Occam’s razor, that the truest answer is the simplest – which is always the official explanation. If this sounds contradictory, that is because it is. It is meant to be. We induce schizophrenia.And it is, these experts suggest, because we live in a world where all knowledge is relative, and you, the individual, like Kafka’s country bumpkin, who in his parable “Before the Law,” tries to get past the doorkeeper to enter the inner sanctum of the Law but is never allowed to pass; you, the individual, must accept the futility of your efforts and accede to this dictum that declares that all knowledge is relative, which is ironically an absolute dictum. It is the Law. The Law of contradictions declared from on high.Many writers, journalists, and filmmakers, while allegedly revealing truths about the U.S. and its allies’ criminal operations at home and abroad, have for decades slyly conveyed the message that in the end “we will never know the truth,” the real facts – that convincing evidence is lacking.This refusal to come to conclusions is a sly tactic that keeps many careers safe while besmirching, intentionally or not, the names of serious researchers who reach conclusions based on overwhelming circumstantial evidence (the basis for most murder convictions) and detailed, sourced facts, often using the words of the guilty parties themselves, but are dismissed with the CIA weaponized term “conspiracy theorists.”This often escapes the average person who does not read footnotes and sources, if they even read books. They read screens and the mainstream media, which should now be understood to include much of the “alternative” media. And they watch all sorts of films.But this “we will never know” meme, this false mystery, is shrewdly and often implicitly joined to another: That we do know because the official explanation of events is true and only nut cases would believe otherwise. Propaganda by paradox. Operation chaos.The JFK Assassination and the Release of FilesThere are so many examples of this, with that of President Kennedy’s assassination being a foundational one. In this case, as with the current phony Trump release of more JFK assassination files, the ongoing “mystery” is always reinforced with the implicit or explicit presupposition that Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy, but yet implying that there are more mysteries to explore forever because “people” are paranoid.(Trump’s position, as he recently told interviewer Clay Travis, is that he has always believed Oswald assassinated Kennedy, but he wonders if he may have had help.)They are paranoid not because of government and media lies, but because “popular culture” (not highbrow) has created paranoia. To spice this up, there is often the suggestion that President Kennedy was assassinated on the orders of the Mob, LBJ, Cuba, or Israel, when the facts overwhelmingly confirm it was organized and carried out by the CIA. A. O. Scott’s recent front page article in The New York Times in response to the JFK files release – “JFK, Blown Away, What Else Do I Have to Say?” (the title appropriately taken from a very fast-paced Billy Joel song and video) – is a perfect example of such legerdemain.Thus the ruse to keep debating the assassination, get the latest documents, etc. to satisfy “people’s” insatiable paranoia. To pull out CIA fallback stories 2, 3, or even 4 when all else fails. Dr. Martin Schotz, the JFK researcher, rightly compares this to George Orwell’s definition of Crimestop:‘Crimestop’ means the faculty of stopping short, as though by instinct, at the threshold of any dangerous thought. It includes the power of not grasping analogies, of failing to perceive logical errors, or misunderstanding the simplest arguments if they are inimical to [the powers that be]... and of being bored or repelled by any train of thought which is capable of leading in a heretical direction. ‘Crimestop’, in short, means protective stupidity.It’s the crazy people’s fault, not Scott’s or those who back him up at The Times, a newspaper that has been lying about the JFK assassination from day one. The same goes for the assassinations of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Jr., Robert F. Kennedy, et al., and so many key events in U.S. history. It is a game of creating mental chaos by claiming we do know because the official explanation is correct but we don’t know because people have been infected with paranoia. If only people were not so paranoid! Unlike us at The Times, goes the implicit message.The Epistemological Games of Certain FilmmakersIt is well known that people today are watching far more streaming film series and movies than they are reading books. That someone would lucubrate with pen in hand over a footnoted book on an important issue is now as rare as someone without a cell phone.The optical-electronic eye-ear screen connection rules most lives, mental and sensory. Marshall McLuhan, if a bit premature while referring in 1962 to Pierre Teilhard de Chardin – the French philosopher, paleontologist, and Jesuit priest – wrote sixty-three years ago in The Gutenberg Galaxy:Instead of tending towards a vast Alexandrian library the world has become a computer, an electronic brain, exactly as an infantile piece of science fiction. And as our senses have gone outside us, Big Brother goes inside. [my emphasis] So, unless aware of this dynamic, we shall at once move into a phase of panic terrors, exactly befitting a small world of tribal drums, total interdependence, and superimposed co-existence.... Terror is the normal state of any oral society, for in it everything affects everything all the time.Four years ago this month, I wrote an article – “You Know We’ll Never Know, Don’t You?” – about a new BBC documentary film series by the acclaimed British filmmaker, Adam Curtis, “Can’t Get You Out of My Head: An Emotional History of the Modern World.”The series is a pastiche film filled with seven plus hours of fleeting, fragmented, and fascinating archived video images from the BBC archives where Curtis has worked for decades, accompanied by Curtis’s skeptical commentary about “a world where anything could be anything because there was no meaning anywhere.” These historical images jump from one seemingly disconnected subject to another to reinforce his point. He says it is “pointless to try to understand the meaning of why things happen.” He claims that we are all living as if we are “on an acid trip.”While not on an acid trip which I have never taken, I was reminded of this recently as I watched a new documentary – Chaos: The Manson Murders (2025) – by the equally famous U.S. documentary filmmaker, Erroll Morris, a film about the CIA’s mind control operation, MKULTRA, and its use of LSD. As everyone knows, the CIA is that way-out hippie organization from Virginia that is always intent on spreading peace, love, and good vibes.While the content of their films differs, Curtis’s wide-ranging and Morris’s focused on Manson and the book by Tom O’Neil, Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties, I was struck by both filmmakers tendency to obfuscate while titillating their audience with footage and information that belies their conclusions about not knowing. In this regard, Curtis is the most overt and extreme.Morris does not use Curtis’s language, but he makes it explicit at Chaos’s end that he doesn’t believe Tom O’Neill’s argument in his well-researched book that Charles Manson was part of a CIA mind-control experiment led by the psychiatrist, Dr. Lewis Jolyon “Jolly” West. West worked in 1967 for the CIA on MKULTRA brainwashing projects in a Haight Ashbury clinic during the summer of love, using LSD and hypnosis, when Manson lived there and was often in the clinic with his followers.On April 26, 1964, West also just “happened” to visit the imprisoned Jack Ruby, the man who killed Lee Harvey Oswald in the Dallas Police Department, and when West emerged from the meeting, he immediately declared that in the preceding 48 hours Ruby had become “positively insane” with no chance that this “unshakeable” and “fixed” lunacy could be reversed. What happened between the two men we do not know – for there were no witnesses – but one might assume West used his hypnotic skills and armamentarium of drugs that were integral to MKULTRA’s methods.MKULTRAMKULTRA was a sinister and secret CIA mind-control project, officially started in 1953 but preceded by Operation Bluebird, which was renamed Operation Artichoke. These operations started right after WW II when U.S. intelligence worked with Nazi doctors to torture Russians and others to reveal secrets. They were brutal. MKULTRA was run by Dr. Sidney Gottlieb and was even worse. He was known as the “Black Sorcerer.” With the formula for LSD, the CIA had an unlimited amount of the drug to use widely, which it did. It figured prominently in MKULTRA mind control experiments along with hypnosis.Tom O’Neill sums it up thus:The agency hoped to produce couriers who could imbed hidden messages in their brains, to implant false memories and remove true ones in people without their awareness, to convert groups to opposing ideologies, and more. The loftiest objective was the creation of hypno-programmed assassins. . . . MKULTRA scientists flouted this code [the Nuremberg Code that emerged from the Nuremberg trials of Nazis] constantly, remorselessly – and in ways that stupefy the imagination. Their work encompassed everything from electronic brain stimulation to sensory deprivation to ‘induced pain’ and ‘psychosis.’ They sought ways to cause heart attacks, severe twitching, and intense cluster headaches. If drugs didn’t do the trick, they’d try master ESP, ultrasonic vibrations, and radiation poisoning. One project tried to harness the power of magnetic fields. [my emphasis]In 1973 during the Watergate scandal, CIA Director William Helms ordered all MKULTRA documents destroyed. Most were, but some were forgotten, and in the next few years, Seymour Hersh reported about it and the Senate Church Committee went further. They discovered records that implicated forty-four universities and colleges in the experiments, eighty institutions, and 185 researchers, Louis West among them. The evil cat and its large litter were out of the bag.MKULTRA allegedly ended in 1973. But only the most naïve would think it did not continue under a different form. In 1964, McLuhan wrote that “the medium is the message.” The new medium that was developed in the decades since has been effectively pointed straight at the brain as you watch the screens. And the message?Tom O’Neill’s Powerful CaseWhile admitting that he has not conclusively proven his thesis because he has never been able to confirm Manson and West being together, O’Neill amasses a tremendous amount of convincing circumstantial evidence in his book that makes his case very strong that they were, and that Manson’s ability to get his followers to kill for him was the result of MKULTRA mind control and the use of LSD, which he used extensively and which was introduced by the CIA and used by West. Both men had an inexhaustible amount of the mind-altering drug to use on their victims.This is the subject of Morris’s film, wherein he interviews O’Neill on camera, who explains the extraordinary fact that Manson was able to mesmerize his followers to kill for him without remorse or shame. They “couldn’t get him out of their heads,” even many years later. This was, of course, the goal of MKULTRA – through the use of brainwashing and drugs – to create “Manchurian Candidates.”This case has much wider ramifications than the sensational 1969 Hollywood murders for which Manson and his followers were convicted; for clearly Manson’s “family” that carried out the murders on his orders appeared in every way to be under hypnotic control. How did a two-bit, ex-con, pipsqueak, minor hanger-on musician learn to accomplish exactly what MKULTRA spent so many years working on?Yet at the end of his film, Morris makes a concluding comment without even a nod to the possibility that O’Neill is correct. He says he doesn’t believe O’Neill. I found it very odd, jarring, as though O’Neill had been set up for this denouement, which I think he had.But at the same time I recognized it as Morris’s method of setting up and then undermining the narrative protagonists in his films that are ostensibly about getting to factual truths but never do; they are stories about how all we ever have are endless interpretations and the unknowable, confounded by human fallibility. Everything is lost in the fog of Morris’s method, which is no accident.Frank OlsonI then found an interview that O’Neill did in 2021 in which he said he pulled out of Morris’s film proposal because Morris wanted to make a film that combined the Frank Olson story (a CIA biologist) with his about Manson.In the interview, O’Neill said he knew Eric Olson, Frank Olson’s son, who has spent a lifetime proving that the CIA murdered his father in 1953, but he didn’t explain why he pulled out of the project. However, he appears extensively throughout Chaos, being interviewed on camera by Morris, only to be undermined at the end. Why he eventually agreed to be part of the project I do not know.I am certain he has seen Wormwood (2017), Morris’s acclaimed (they are all acclaimed) Netflix film series about the biologist/ CIA agent Frank Olson and his son, Eric Olson’s heroic lifelong quest to prove that the CIA murdered his father because he had a crisis of conscience about the agency’s use of torture, brainwashing, LSD, and US biological weapons use in Korea, much of it in association with Nazis.The evidence is overwhelming that Frank Olson did not jump from a NYC hotel window in 1953 but was drugged with LSD to induce hallucinations and paranoia, smashed in the head, and thrown out by the CIA. [Read this and view this] Despite such powerful evidence available to him before making Wormwood, in another example of Morris’s method, he disagrees with Eric Olson’s decades of conclusive research that his father was murdered.ConclusionFilmmakers like Adam Curtis and Erroll Morris are examples of a much larger and dangerous phenomenon. Their emphases on the impossibility of knowing – this seeming void in the human mind, an endless acid trip down a road of kaleidoscopic interpretations – is much larger than them. It is deeply imbedded in today’s society.One of the few areas in which we are said to be able to know anything for certain is in the area of partisan politics. Here knowingness is the rule and the other side is always wrong. Fight, fight, fight for the home team! Here the nostalgia for “knowledge” is encouraged, as if we don’t live in a 24/7 media society of the spectacle where brainwashing is cunning and relentless, and the consuming public is consumed with thoughts and perceptions filtered through electronic media according to the needs and lies of corporate state power.With the arrival of the electronic digital life, “knowledge” is now screening. If you don’t want to confirm McLuhan’s prediction – “as our senses have gone outside us, Big Brother goes inside” – it behooves everyone to step back into the lamplight to read and study books. And take a walk in nature without your machine. You might hear a little bird call to you. Tyler DurdenThu, 04/10/2025 - 22:35

Remember when inflation readings were the headline news of the day, and were as feverishly anticipated by investors as Nvidia earnings reports? CNBC Daily Open remembers. If Thursday’s consumer price index report, which showed prices actually dipping month on month and core inflation dropping to the lowest since 2021, had been released prior to the tariff chaos unleashed by U.S. President Donald Trump, stocks would probably have shot up.Instead, the U.S. stock market fell Thursday, as the previous day’s relief rally quickly lost steam. Investor sentiment was weighed further by the White House’s confirmation that it was imposing a 145% tariff on imports from China — 20% higher than previously thought. That basically closes off all trade between the two countries, according to Erica York, vice president of federal tax policy at the Tax Foundation’s Center for Federal Tax Policy.To be fair, March’s consumer price index report doesn’t take into account price changes resulting from tariff policies. If companies have to pay more than double for goods from China, it’s hard to imagine them — even one with pockets as deep as Apple’s — absorbing the increased cost. The inflation report for April, then, could have an impact as large as any tariff news. What you need to know todayShort-lived relief rally U.S. stocks fell Thursday, giving up gains from the previous day’s historic rally, with losses accelerating after the White House confirmed to CNBC on Thursday that the tariff rate on China would actually total 145%. The S&P 500 was down 3.46%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 2.5% and the Nasdaq Composite slumped 4.31%. Asked for his reaction to today’s market sell-off, U.S. President Donald Trump said, “I haven’t seen it,” while Trump’s top trade advisor Peter Navarro told CNN the “retracement” is “no big deal.”Recession is OK, depression is notTrump privately said he was aware that his broad and steep plan for levies unveiled last week could tip the economy into a recession, but he didn’t want a depression, according to The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the conversations. A depression is considered by economists to take place when a recession becomes more severe and entails higher unemployment and a more prolonged downturn. Lowest core inflation in yearsThe U.S. consumer price index fell a seasonally adjusted 0.1% in March, putting the 12-month inflation rate at 2.4%, down from 2.8% in February. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, increased 0.1% for the month and 2.8% on the year. That was the lowest annual rate for core inflation since March 2021. Wall Street had been looking for headline inflation of 2.6% and core at 3%, according to the Dow Jones consensus.China unlikely to devalue yuan The Chinese offshore yuan weakened to a record low of 7.4287 against the U.S. dollar earlier this week after the People’s Bank of China set its midpoint rate at its weakest level since 2023. However, China will not be able to wield a weaker yuan as a weapon in its deepening trade war with the U.S. because of concerns that such a move could trigger financial market instability, most market watchers surveyed by CNBC said.Mixed day in Asia for assetsAsia-Pacific markets were mixed Friday. Japan’s Nikkei 225 lost around 3.4% and South Korea’s Kospi fell 0.7%, but Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index climbed more than 1.8% and mainland China’s CSI 300 added roughly 0.5%.

가트너에 따르면 2024년 전 세계 반도체 매출은 총 6,559억 달러로, 2023년(5,421억 달러) 대비 21% 증가했다. 이는 지난 2월 발표된 예비 조사 전망치보다 각각 약 300억 달러, 3% 증가한 수치다. 반도체 공급업체 순위도 예비 조사 전망치와 비교해 변동이 있었다. 최종 조사 결과에 따르면, 엔비디아가 사상 처음으로 삼성전자와 인텔을 제치고 1위에 올랐다. 엔비디아는 지난해 매출 766억 9,200만 달러로 전년보다 120% 급증했다.반면 기존 1위였던 인텔은 2024년 498억 달러 매출을 기록해 2023년 대비 0.8% 성장하는 데 그쳤다. 삼성전자는 656억 9,700만 달러로 2023년(400억 8,600만 달러) 대비 60.8% 성장률을 기록했다. 또한 2023년 230억 7,700만 달러로 6위였던 SK하이닉스가 지난해 91.5%(441억 8,600만 달러) 성장해 4위에 올라섰다. 메모리 평균판매가격 상승과 AI 애플리케이션용 고대역폭메모리(HBM) 분야의 선도적인 입지 덕분인 것으로 해석된다. 퀄컴, 브로드컴, 마이크론테크놀로지, AMD, 애플, 미디어텍이 반도체 부문에서 하이닉스의 뒤를 이었다.가트너 VP 애널리스트 가우라브 굽타는 “지난해 상위 10개 반도체 벤더의 매출 순위 변동은 AI 인프라 구축 수요의 급증과 메모리 매출이 73.4% 증가한 데 따른 것”이라고 설명했다.이어 그는 “엔비디아는 데이터센터의 AI 워크로드에 주로 사용되는 dGPU(discrete Graphic Processing Unit)에 대한 수요가 급증하면서 1위로 도약했다. 삼성전자는 수급 불균형에 따른 급격한 가격 반등으로 DRAM과 플래시 메모리 분야 모두에서 상승세를 보이며 2023년에 이어 2위 자리를 유지했다. 인텔은 주요 제품군 전반에서 경쟁이 심화되고, AI 프로세싱 수요의 견조한 증가의 수혜를 충분히 누리지 못해 2024년 매출 성장이 0.8%에 그쳤다”라고 분석했다[email protected]

Apple is heavily reliant on China, which has seen its tariff rates continue to ramp up to a cumulative 145%. While the company has been working to diversify its supply chains, analysts say its left without any clear short-term options to quickly reduce tariff impacts. Though U.S. President Donald Trump’s 90-day pause on many of his “reciprocal tariffs” has given some firms and investors respite, America’s largest company, Apple, hasn’t been so lucky. The Cupertino-based tech giant is heavily reliant on supply chains in China, which has seen its tariff rates only continue to ramp up, with the U.S.’ cumulative tariff rate on Chinese goods now standing at 145%.Thus, despite the U.S. tariff situation looking more promising for the world, experts say that U.S.-China negotiations remain the primary variable for Apple.“Apple could be set back many years by these tariffs,” Dan Ives, global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities, told CNBC, adding that the company had “had their boat flipped over in the ocean with no life rafts.”The smartphone maker has been diversifying its supply chain from China for years, but out of the 77 million iPhones it shipped to the U.S. last year, nearly 80% came from China, according to data from Omdia. The tech-focused research firm estimates that under current tariffs, Apple could be forced to increase its prices on phones sold to the U.S. from China by around 85% in order to maintain its margins.“When the original China tariffs were at 54%, that kind of impact was serious, but manageable ... but, it wouldn’t make financial sense for Apple to raise prices based on the current tariffs,” said Le Xuan Chiew, research manager at Omdia.Few optionsApple reportedly shipped 600 tons of iPhones, or as many as 1.5 million units, from India to the U.S. before the new U.S. tariffs took effect, according to Reuters and The Times of India.Apple and two of its iPhone producers did not respond to a CNBC inquiry. Chiew said while this news is unconfirmed, stockpiling would’ve been the best option for the company to quickly mitigate the tariff impacts and buy themselves some time. However, it’s not clear how long such stockpiles could last, especially as consumers increase iPhone purchases in anticipation of higher prices, he added. According to Omdia, Apple’s medium-term strategy has been to reduce exposure to geopolitical and tariff-related risks, and it has appeared to focus on increasing iPhone production and exports from India. Trump’s temporary halt will likely push tariffs on India to a baseline of 10% — at least for now — giving it a more favorable entry into the U.S. However, the build-up of iPhone manufacturing in India has been a yearslong process. Indian iPhone manufacturers only began producing Apple’s top-of-the-line Pro and Pro Max iPhone models for the first time last year. According to Chiew, ramping up enough production in India to satisfy demand could take at least one or two years and is not without its own tariff risks. Exemptions?In face of the tariffs, experts said the company’s best option is likely to appeal to the Trump administration for a tariff exemption for imports from China as it continues to ramp up its diversification efforts. This is something the company had received during the first Trump administration. Some analysts believe this is something that could happen this time around. “I still see some potential relief that can come in the form of concessions for Apple based upon its $500 billion U.S. commitment,” said Daniel Newman, CEO of The Futurum Group. “This hasn’t been discussed much — but I’m optimistic that companies that commit to U.S. expansion may see some form of relief as negotiations progress.” Apple said in February that it would invest $500 billion in the U.S., creating 20,000 jobs.Still, Trump has been clear that he believes Apple can make iPhones in the U.S.— something analysts have expressed doubts about. Wedbush analyst Ives has predicted that an iPhone would cost $3,500 if it was produced in the U.S. Meanwhile, other analysts say that even a trade deal or tariff exemption may not be enough for Apple to avoid adverse business effects.“Let’s assume that there is at least some thaw coming, either in a moderation of reciprocal tariffs targeting China or in a special exemption for Apple,” said Craig Moffett, co-founder and senior analyst at equity research publisher MoffettNathanson.“That still wouldn’t solve the problem. Even a 10% baseline tariff poses an enormous challenge for Apple.”

전 세계 기업이 AI 에이전트의 등장으로 인한 업무 환경과 비즈니스 모델 변화에 주목하고 있다. AI 에이전트는 인간의 개입 없이 복잡한 문제를 해결하고 최적의 패턴을 추론하는 역량을 갖추고 있다. 기업들이 단순한 자동화를 넘어 업무 프로세스 혁신을 기대하는 배경이다.하지만 AI 에이전트 기술을 자체적으로 개발·구현하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 복잡한 엔지니어링과 시스템 통합이 필요하며, AI의 최적 성능을 위해 고품질 데이터가 필수적이다. 미국의 대표적인 싱크탱크인 랜드 연구소(RAND Corporation)에 따르면, 기업의 AI 도입 성공률은 20% 미만에 그친다. 실패율이 일반적인 IT 프로젝트보다 두 배 높다. 이는 AI 도입이 신중한 접근이 필요한 과제임을 보여준다.지난 디지털 혁신의 역사가 증명하듯, 기업이 자체적으로 AI 에이전트를 위한 최적의 환경을 마련하는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 이에 따라 전 세계 CIO들은 AI 기술을 자체 개발하는 방법을 택하는 대신, 검증된 AI 에이전트 플랫폼을 도입하는 방법을 택하고 있다.이유는 다양하다. 검증된 AI 에이전트 플랫폼을 활용할 경우 기업이 LLM과 데이터를 직접 구축하는 데 필요한 막대한 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라, 여러 성공사례들을 기반으로 자사 비즈니스의 목표와 특성에 맞추어 AI 에이전트를 최적화할 수 있다. 즉 글로벌 기업에서 이미 성과를 확인한 AI 에이전트 플랫폼 도입은 비용 효율성을 극대화하면서도 AI 도입 성공 가능성을 높이는 전략적 접근법이 될 수 있다.대표적 사례로 미국 생활가전 브랜드 샤크닌자가 있다. 샤크닌자는 AI 에이전트를 활용하여 24시간 실시간으로 고객의 반품 요청을 처리하고, 제품 추천을 제공하는 등 고객 응대를 자동화하고 있다. 또한, 고객의 구매 이력과 서비스 내역을 분석하여 맞춤형 응대를 제공함으로써, 고객경험 향상과 고객 응대 효율성 개선이라는 두 마리 토끼를 한 번에 잡았다.국제 자동차 프로 레이싱 대회인 F1 또한 AI 에이전트 플랫폼을 기반으로 팬 경험의 개인화는 물론, 스포츠 경험을 개선해 나가고 있다. AI 에이전트를 기반으로 로그인 오류나 스트리밍 문제와 같은 이슈를 실시간으로 해결하고, 데이터를 기반으로 개별 팬들의 특성에 맞는 맞춤형 경험을 제공하고 있다. F1은 AI 에이전트를 기반으로 고객 응답 시간을 80% 단축한 것은 물론, 팬들과의 관계를 더욱 강화하고 있다.곧 AI 에이전트의 혁신이 불러온 성공소식이 우리 기업에서도 들려올 것으로 보인다. 현재 많은 기업들이 AI 에이전트 도입을 검토 및 추진하고 있다.그러나 성공적인 AI 에이전트 도입은 CIO의 올바른 리더십을 근간으로 해야 꽃피울 수 있다. AI 기술 도입은 단순히 기술적 도전만이 아니라, 조직 문화, 변화 관리, 윤리적 문제 해결 등 전방위적인 리더십을 요구하는 매우 복잡한 과제이기 때문이다. 실제로 전 세계에서 신기술과 함께 빠르게 순항하고 있는 기업들의 공통점은 ‘CIO의 리더십’이다.AI 에이전트 시대 CIO의 리더십은 기술 그 자체가 아닌 기술이 창출하는 비즈니스 가치에 집중할 때 빛이 나게 될 것이다. 단순한 기술 도입을 넘어, 조직의 DNA에 AI를 통합하는 전략적 비전을 제시하고, 투자 비용과 리스크를 체계적으로 관리하며, 조직 전체가 이 혁신의 여정에 동참할 수 있는 문화를 조성할 수 있어야 한다.이러한 리더십으로 AI 에이전트 혁신을 주도하는 CIO들을 보유한 조직이야말로 글로벌 경쟁에서 우위를 점하고, 새로운 가치와 기회를 창출할 수 있을 것이다.손부한 대표는 2019년부터 세일즈포스 코리아 비즈니스를 총괄하고 있다[email protected]

The two most prominent satellite galaxies of the Milky Way are the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. A team of astronomers have recently tracked the movements of 7,000 stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and found that many of them are being pulled away towards the Large Magellanic Cloud! It seems the SMC is being pulled apart, perhaps leading to its eventual destruction as the tidal forces strip away its stars!

One of the things about astronomy that captivates me is that for every question we answer, we open up a whole bunch of other questions. Dark matter and dark energy are one such phenomenon that rather continues to confound us. There’s also the mystery of missing infrared light too but a team of astronomers think they may have found it! The team examined a region of sky using the Herschel Space Telescope and, by staking 141 images, found where individual dust-rich galaxies appeared blended together. The galaxies are absorbing starlight and re-emitting infrared radiation, and is this that may well account for the missing light.

In December 2024, Oklahoma officials say Jason Morris convinced his online, elderly girlfriend to send him $120,000 to pay for an oil vessel carrying 700,000 barrels in Alaska he allegedly owned to return to shore. Once the rig returned, she and Morris would move in together.The bank held the funds, according to court documents. Morris instructed the woman to contact her bank and lie to them, saying the funds were for purchasing property and not for the alleged oil tanker.But the bank was right to raise suspicion — officials say there was never an Alaskan oil rig. In fact, they say there was never a Jason Morris.‘Scams that target seniors’Christine Joan Echohawk, a 53-year-old woman from Oklahoma, was allegedly the face behind the screen, scamming the older woman out of hundreds of thousands of dollars and laundering the money.Four different women were scammed out of $1.5 million through Echohawk’s online romance scams between Sept. 30 and Dec. 26, 2024, according to a release from the office of Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond.The women were between the ages of 64 and 79 and all lived outside of Oklahoma.“These types of scams that target seniors are especially egregious,” Drummond said in the release.The attorney general filed charges against Echohawk on Monday for “unlawful use of criminal proceeds and using a computer to violate state statutes,” the release said. Echohawk was sent cash, checks, wired funds and even tens of thousands in Apple gift cards.Authorities say Echohawk laundered the funds through various accounts, converting the money into cryptocurrency and sending those crypto payments to an unidentified suspect.Jason Morris, Edward Lotts and Glenn GoadardThe alleged scams included fake names — such as Edward Lotts and Glenn Goadard — and elaborate backstories explaining the need for loads of cash, according to a probable cause affidavit.Lotts convinced one woman to send more than $600,000 to pay off a debt that would allow $2 million to be released to “him.” When the debt was paid off, Lotts would move in with her, the affidavit stated.The victim sold her paid-off home to send all the money.Goadard contacted another woman claiming to know her since college. The woman was persuaded into paying $250,000 for expenses on a financial portfolio Goadard would send her from Syria.But Echohawk allegedly received all the funds, depositing them into a MidFirst Bank account in which she was the sole signatory, according to the affidavit.The Stillwater MidFirst Bank branch tipped off Drummond’s office in January, suspecting Echohawk of senior-fraud activity after a $120,000 payment from one of the victims was intercepted and held, according to the release. The Consumer Protection Unit subsequently investigated.Confidence/romance crimes and Maurice DeniroDefined as a confidence/romance scheme by the FBI, these crimes occur when an individual believes they are in a relationship — whether family, friend or romantic — and manipulated into sending money, financial or personal information, or items of value to a perpetrator. The FBI Internet Crime Report found more than $600 million was lost in 2023 to confidence/romance crimes alone.Local law enforcement confronted Echohawk about the suspected criminal activity in January, but after a short hiatus she allegedly continued to launder the money.Echohawk was voluntarily interviewed at the Pawnee police department on March 26, an interview she opened with asking if it would “all go away” if she paid back the individuals who sent her money, according to the affidavit.But she then claimed it was her who was in an online relationship, that she was receiving cash, checks, wire transfers and other items since 2023 for an individual under the alias of Maurice Dinero, the affidavit said. Echohawk claimed there were “red flags” about her situation and had concerns she would be arrested.When Echohawk consented to having her purse searched, the affidavit said, there were multiple bank cards associated with accounts she allegedly laundered money through, a MidFirst Bank deposit slip for $110,000 and several Apple gift cards found with the barcodes revealed. There was also $500 in cash, which Echohawk said was from individuals sending money to the alias, but she had not yet deposited.Echohawk faces four counts of unlawful use of criminal proceeds and one count of violating the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act, which could carry up to 62 years in prison and $260,000 in fines, the release said.She has been held in Pawnee County Jail since Monday, according to Pawnee County Sheriff’s Office records. An attorney was not listed and it’s unclear if she has legal representation.“I applaud the work of my Consumer Protection Unit to fight for these victims and to hold accountable their alleged perpetrator,” Drummond said in the release.This story first appeared on NBCNews.com.

MacworldWhile everyone is waiting to see just how different the iPhone 17 lineup will be, an analyst with a decent track record has a prediction for next year–not one, but two folding devices from Apple.While we’ve already heard rumors that a folding phone is nearing release, GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu reports that Apple is planning to launch a 19-inch folding iPad later next year. As spotted by 9to5Mac, Pu says the so-called iPad Fold will launch alongside the folding iPhone next year.This is somewhat contradictory to a report earlier this week by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, in which he reported that 2027 would be the year Apple launched its first folding iPhone to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the iPhone, similar to how Apple launched the iPhone X to mark the 10th anniversary.According to Pu, the folding phone will open to a 7.8-inch display, while the folding iPad will have a massive 18.8-inch display. That’s significantly larger than the largest tablet Apple currently offers, which tops out at 13 inches. A near-19-inch iPad would fold down to a device about the size of the iPad Pro.That sounds similar to a rumor floated by Gurman last year, who wrote that Apple was working on “something akin to a giant iPad that unfolds into the size of two iPad Pros side-by-side.” However, he said at the time that the device wouldn’t be ready for launch until 2028.Whichever report you choose to believe–for the record, Gurman has a better track record than Pu but both have had more accurate predictions than not–it seems as though Apple’s first folding screens are on the way. Get your wallets ready.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2025Sales of $441.7 million, up by 8.6%, driven equally by internal growth and acquisitions.In Canada, sales reached $241.6 million, up 4.1%.In the United States, sales totalled US$139.8 million, up 7.6%, representing 45% of total sales.EBITDA of $42.4 million, up 5.0% - EBITDA margin of 9.6%.Net income attributable to shareholders of $13.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share.Solid financial position as of February 28, 2025 - working capital of $613.2 million - ratio of 2.9:1.Expansion: five new acquisitions since the beginning of the fiscal year, including one after the end of the first quarter, representing approximately $50 million in annual sales.Quarterly dividend of $0.1533 per share payable on May 8, 2025 to shareholders of record as at April 24, 2025.MONTREAL, April 10, 2025 /CNW/ - (TSX: RCH) "Richelieu has strongly started the 2025 fiscal year with five new acquisitions and an 8.6% increase in sales. This result is all the more appreciable given that the first quarter is historically the weakest period of the year and the renovation market conditions remained relatively stagnant during the period. Our market development initiatives, combined with contributions from acquisitions, the diversification of our market segments, and our added value of our service offering, contributed to this performance. We made significant progress in the manufacturers' market, where sales grew by 9.9%, including 5.1% internal growth, reaching $385.1 million. In the hardware retailers and renovation superstores market, sales remained stable compared to Q1 2024, at $56.6 million. We are currently making significant investments to install new in-store displays and add new product lines in order to boost sales to retail customers. We see these initiatives are starting to bear fruit, with sales growth in this market in Canada.""I am also pleased with of our recent acquisitions completed since the beginning of the year: The acquisition of Mill Supply, which operates two centres in the Maritime provinces—one in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, and the other in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. This acquisition strengthens our presence in this market and complements our two existing centres in Dartmouth. In fact, it had long been one of our priorities. The acquisition of Darant Distributing allows us to enter the strategic Colorado market. Midwest Specialty Products reinforces our presence in the Minneapolis area, where we are already established, while also adding product lines such as quartz and other decorative surfaces. Modulex Partition, a distributor of Division 10 products, enables us to expand our presence in these product categories in the strategic markets of New Jersey and the Greater New York area. Finally, the acquisition of Rhoads & O'Hara Architectural, a specialist in exclusive architectural panels, working closely with architects, designers, and high-end commercial woodworking.""Despite the headwinds expected from the tariffs imposed by the US government, Richelieu is well-positioned to navigate these changes, with less than 20% of its products imported from China to the U.S. where alternative products are already sourced from other countries," mentioned Mr. Richard Lord, President and Chief Executive Officer.EXPANSION: ACQUISITIONS AND CONSOLIDATION OF CENTRESDuring the first quarter, Richelieu completed the following acquisitions:Mill Supply, on December 1, 2024, in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia and Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island;Darant Distributing, on January 6, 2025, in Denver, Colorado;Midwest Specialty Products, on January 13, 2025, in Minneapolis, Minnesota; andModulex Partition on February 4th, in Hillside, New Jersey.Subsequent to the first quarter, on April 1st, 2025, Richelieu completed the acquisition of Rhoads & O'Hara Architectural Products, a distributor of architectural panels and related products, in Vineland, New Jersey.These new acquisitions not only add approximately $50 million in annual sales, but also enhance the Corporation's presence in strategic markets, diversify its product offering, and create new synergies.In addition, during the quarter, to meet the needs of future growth and continue to deliver top-tier customer service, the Corporation completed its project to consolidate two distribution centres in the Vancouver area into a single 140,000 sq. ft. facility serving the manufacturers' market.RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2025For the first quarter ended February 28, 2025, consolidated sales amounted to $441.7M, compared to $406.9M for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $34.8M, or 8.6%, driven equally by internal growth and acquisitions. In currency comparable to that of the first quarter of 2024, the increase in consolidated sales would have been 5.6% for the quarter ended February 28, 2025.The following table provides an overview of Richelieu's sales in its two main markets for the quarters ended February 28, 2025 and February 29 2024 :Full story available on Benzinga.com

IBM and Google announced separate initiatives this week that use artificial intelligence in new ways to, respectively, expand enterprise intelligence services and surface clinical information at the point of care. Also, a new partnership seeks to improve social determinants of health program efficacy, reduce costs and deliver better outcomes for healthcare payers, providers, payviders, employers, patients and other healthcare stakeholders.New agentic AI at Seattle Children'sGoogle Cloud is partnering with Seattle Children's Hospital to launch an AI agent called Pathway Assistant that streamlines access to critical, evidence-based information within the hospital's clinical effectiveness program. Seattle Children's Clinical Standard Pathways tool can help providers improve patient outcomes for more than 70 diagnoses. The partners, including more than 50 of the Seattle health system's providers, built the clinical decision-making tool with Google's Gemini machine learning models on Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform to enhance clinical decisions and reduce provider workload burdens.The AI agent quickly synthesizes text, images and the latest medical literature at the point of care, which could take up to 15 minutes if done manually. It's a significant step forward in delivering quality care, according to Dr. Clara Lin, the hospital's vice president and chief medical information officer. "We are committed to offering our doctors and other healthcare providers the most cutting-edge tools to enhance their decision-making," Lin said in a statement. The tool also reduces provider workloads and extends the "collective wisdom of all the medical professionals who authored the pathways" to providers using the AI consultant, said Dr. Darren Migita, Seattle Children's medical director of clinical effectiveness. Google said that the use of the HIPAA-compliant tool will be measured against qualitative and quantitative measures developed to assess both patient and physician outcomes and that the hospital will retain control over its data.IBM expands enterprise intelligence servicesThe tech giant announced the acquisition of New York-based Hakkoda, a data and AI consultancy that IBM Consulting says will help its clients build an integrated enterprise data infrastructure that can fuel AI-driven business processes. The addition of the specialized data platform expertise expands IBM's data transformation services portfolio, which could speed up clients' data modernization efforts. "With Hakkoda's data expertise, deep technology partnerships and asset-centric delivery model, IBM will be even better positioned to deliver value faster to clients as they transform with AI," Mohamad Ali, senior vice president and head of IBM Consulting, said in a statement.Hakkoda is also a Snowflake partner, adding core and advanced certifications to IBM's portfolio and an advanced-tier partner of Amazon Web Services.A new SDOH accountability frameworkTo optimize member health outcomes and better inform social risk management decisions, Socially Determined, Mathematica and MedeAnalytics are collaborating to develop a data-driven, actuarially validated framework that assesses the ROI of decisions around social determinants of health.Texas-based MedeAnalytics, the healthcare enterprise data enrichment and analytics software-as-a-service platform, called the partnership a first-of-its-kind Social Risk Insights program that will set new standards in SDOH intervention evaluation and implementation.It's an opportunity to empower healthcare organizations to improve patient outcomes "while simultaneously reducing costs and enabling measurable impact for the communities they serve," Steve Grieco, MedeAnalytics CEO, said in a statement Tuesday. The partners will use the company's Health Fabric platform, which combines strategic advisory services and AI, to measure SDOH impacts to deliver actionable insights. They said they would focus on providing robust financial impact assessments that could create a more complete picture of member populations and result in better resource optimization. "The healthcare system is increasingly accountable for outcomes and disease progression – 80% of which are driven by social factors," said Trenor Williams, CEO of Socially Determined, in the announcement. "By embedding our social risk intelligence into a financial impact framework validated by Mathematica and deployed through MedeAnalytics, we enable healthcare organizations to directly measure and manage the ROI of social interventions at scale.""This team of data science, healthcare delivery and policy experts will provide evidence-based recommendations to improve the well-being of our friends, family and neighbors served by health payers and providers," added Joshua Baker, managing director of Mathematica.Andrea Fox is senior editor of Healthcare IT News.Email: [email protected] IT News is a HIMSS Media publication.

Bungie is set to take the wrappers off Marathon this Saturday and reveal gameplay from its first non-Destiny project in many years (and its first new one since joining Sony in 2022). Before that though, the studio has confirmed one detail about the multi-platform extraction shooter that PC and Xbox gamers may like to hear. The game won’t force players to log in with a PlayStation account on those platforms.The Marathon team confirmed on the game’s official Discord server that "Marathon will not require a PlayStation Account for players on PC and Xbox." The developers said this in response to a user who was concerned that they might not be able to play Marathon on PC, since PSN wasn’t supported in their country.This is relevant considering the Helldivers 2 mess from last year. The PC version of that Sony-published game was going to require players to connect to a PSN account. That wasn’t enforced during the first three-ish months Helldivers 2 was available on Steam due to network issues, but it was later going to come into effect. The shift would have locked out players who had already bought the game in countries where PSN wasn’t available.Sony quickly backtracked on the PSN requirement for Helldivers 2 following a backlash but the situation tarnished the reputation of a great game. The company later dropped mandatory PSN logins for many of its single-player games on PC, though it tried to incentivize players for linking their Steam account to PSN by offering in-game goodies.Bungie hasn't said much about Marathon since announcing its revival two years ago, but the gameplay showcase this weekend will shed much more light on what the game's all about. For what it's worth, streamer DrLupo claims to have been playtesting Marathon through various iterations over the last six years, and said it's gotten better each time he's tried it.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/bungies-marathon-wont-force-xbox-and-pc-players-to-log-in-with-a-playstation-account-144127907.html?src=rss

Recent physics studies have discovered that quarks and gluons inside protons, which are subatomic positively charged particles, exhibit maximal quantum entanglement at high energies. Entanglement is a physical phenomenon that entails correlations between distant particles that cannot be explained by classical physics theories, resulting in the state of one particle influencing that of another.

The Decade-Plus Successes Of SpaceX And U.S. Space Programs Authored by Forrest Marion via RealClearDefense,In recent days, domestic terrorists have engaged in political violence against Elon Musk’s Tesla enterprise: torching cars, vandalizing dealerships, and more. Leftist political leaders have employed the same kind of rhetoric against Mr. Musk that, during last year’s campaign, encouraged two assassination attempts against President Trump. Apparently, the ongoing violence against Tesla and the personal threats against the former darling of the Democrats are for no other reasons than Musk’s willingness to lead the Trump 47 administration’s attempts to curb the long-running and insanely wasteful, fraudulent, and corrupt federal spending that threatens the country with fiscal and economic ruin. In short, Musk is doing his best to halt Social Security payments to “eligible” recipients who are, literally, older than Moses (Deuteronomy 34:7). These developments are timely for recalling Elon Musk’s accomplishments a decade or more ago, which have proven indispensable to advancing his adopted country’s space capabilities and in the process bringing benefits to many millions of Americans as well as to earthlings all over the globe. I’m fully aware that the documented record of the 2010s is ancient history for many. So this piece seeks to lay out the historical record plainly and concisely.In the latter part of the George W. Bush administration (2001-2009), the space shuttle program was expected to end by 2010. As a result, America’s hopes for returning her astronauts to the moon by 2020 rested on the Lockheed and Boeing contracted Constellation program. But as the incoming Barak Obama administration took stock in 2009, the Constellation program’s unsustainability became apparent. It was two years behind schedule and well over budget. In 2010 the Obama space team judged the Constellation program “unexecutable.” Obama cancelled it along with the shuttle program despite the furor of some former astronauts, most notably Neil Armstrong. (Developments since 2010 strongly suggest that Obama made the right call on the cancellation, albeit having no more than a modest interest in space.)Enter those whom author Christian Davenport called “the Space Barons” in his fine book by the same title. The U.S. government’s civil and National Security Space (NSS) programs needed fresh thinking and simpler processes to attract young entrepreneurs willing to take risks that the large, legacy contractors could not or refused to take. Musk’s SpaceX and Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin were the two up-and-coming space enterprises that most notably entered the field. And they produced.SpaceX had achieved orbit with its Falcon rocket in late 2008. Over the next several years, Musk’s company continued improving its capabilities and cost effectiveness in terms of space transportation. One unforgettable moment in that evolution occurred in December 2015 when on a mission to fly eleven commercial satellites into orbit, SpaceX not only succeeded with the satellite mission but on the back end managed to land the Falcon 9’s first stage booster safely—the company’s first-ever successful landing of a first stage rocket. It was only the second such landing, as Blue Origin had done it only a month earlier on a suborbital launch. The pandemonium at SpaceX headquarters that night reminded many of Apollo 11 in 1969. The door was now opened to huge cost savings in commercial space as well as NSS missions. It was a game changer. In a meeting with Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter at the Pentagon in June 2016, Musk and the defense chief discussed innovation. (Note that Musk’s visit to the Pentagon earlier in 2025 was not his first meeting with a U.S. defense secretary.) More important, in the spring of 2016 SpaceX secured its first U.S. Air Force contract to fly NSS satellites into space. Led by Musk and Bezos, the “NewSpace actors” – as Obama had called them – were gaining prominence and partnering more closely than before with NSS interests.Without the leadership of Musk and Bezos a decade ago, U.S. civil space and NSS might look much different than it does today. And for any Tesla-attacking terrorists who want to show the rest of us the strength of their convictions against Elon Musk, all they need to do is throw away their cell phones, shred their credit cards, and turn off their cars’ navigation systems – all of which depend on satellite capabilities, much of it thanks to Musk’s SpaceX.

“The deficits on the fiscal side that we’re likely to see in the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) countries, especially big countries like Saudi Arabia, are going to be pretty significant,” Goldman Sachs’ Farouk Soussa told CNBC. Saudi Arabia needs oil at more than $90 a barrel to balance its budget, the IMF estimates. Goldman Sachs this week lowered its price forecast for 2025 to $62 for Brent crude. Spending by the kingdom has ballooned due to Vision 2030, a sweeping campaign to transform the Saudi economy and diversify its revenue streams away from hydrocarbons.Crashing oil prices triggered by waning demand, global trade war fears and growing crude supply could more than double Saudi Arabia’s budget deficit, a Goldman Sachs economist warned.The bank’s outlook spotlighted the pressure on the kingdom to make changes to its mammoth spending plans and fiscal measures.“The deficits on the fiscal side that we’re likely to see in the GCC [Gulf Cooperation Council] countries, especially big countries like Saudi Arabia, are going to be pretty significant,” Farouk Soussa, Middle East and North Africa economist at Goldman Sachs, told CNBC’s Access Middle East on Wednesday.Spending by the kingdom has ballooned due to Vision 2030, a sweeping campaign to transform the Saudi economy and diversify its revenue streams away from hydrocarbons. A centerpiece of the project is Neom, an as-yet sparsely populated mega-region in the desert roughly the size of Massachusetts.Plans for Neom include hyper-futuristic developments that altogether have been estimated to cost as much as $1.5 trillion. The kingdom is also hosting the 2034 World Cup and the 2030 World Expo, both infamously costly endeavors.The Line, NEOMDigital render of NEOM’s The Line project in Saudi ArabiaSaudi Arabia needs oil at more than $90 a barrel to balance its budget, the International Monetary Fund estimates. Goldman Sachs this week lowered its year-end 2025 oil price forecast to $62 a barrel for Brent crude, down from a previous forecast of $69 — a figure that the bank’s economists say could more than double Saudi Arabia’s 2024 budget deficit of $30.8 billion.“In Saudi Arabia, we estimate that we’re probably going to see the deficit go up from around $30 to $35 billion to around $70 to $75 billion, if oil prices stayed around $62 this year,” Soussa said.“That means more borrowing, probably means more cutbacks on expenditure, it probably means more selling of assets, all of the above, and this is going to have an impact both on domestic financial conditions and potentially even international.”Financing that level of deficit in international markets “is going to be challenging” given the shakiness of international markets right now, he added, and likely means Riyadh will need to look at other options to bridge their funding gap.The kingdom still has significant headroom to borrow; their debt-to-GDP ratio as of December 2024 is just under 30%. In comparison, the U.S. and France’s debt-to-GDP ratios of 124% and 110.6%, respectively. But $75 billion in debt issuance would be difficult for the market to absorb, Soussa noted.“That debt to GDP ratio, while comforting, doesn’t mean that the Saudis can issue as much debt as they like ... they do have to look at other remedies,” he said, adding that those remedies include cutting back on capital expenditure, raising taxes, or selling more of their domestic assets — like state-owned companies Saudi Aramco and Sabic. Several Neom projects may end up on the chopping block, regional economists predict.Saudi Arabia has an A/A-1 credit rating with a positive outlook from S&P Global Ratings and an A+ rating with a stable outlook from Fitch. That combined with high foreign currency reserves — $410.2 billion as of January, according to CEIC data — puts the kingdom in a comfortable place to manage a deficit.The kingdom has also rolled out a series of reforms to boost and de-risk foreign investment and diversify revenue streams, which S&P Global said in September “will continue to improve Saudi Arabia’s economic resilience and wealth.”“So the Saudis have lots of options, the mix of all of these is very difficult to pre-judge, but certainly we’re not looking at some sort of crisis,” Soussa said. “It’s just a question of which options they go for in order to deal with the challenges that they’re facing.”Global benchmark Brent crude was trading at $63.58 per barrel on Thursday at 9:30 a.m. in London, down roughly 14% year-to-date.

U.S. President Donald Trump hit the pause button on his heavy “reciprocal” tariffs and swapped them for a universal 10% rate for 90 days. Stocks ripped higher on the news, hitting historic numbers. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said it was Trump’s plan “all along.”Whether the plan is a good one is another matter. Investors should not let themselves be swept away by the flood of euphoria in markets Wednesday. Remember, Trump allowed a mere 90-day pause for deals to be made. The 10% tariff is not the permanent rate. And massive tariffs still exist on China, one of the biggest trading partners of the U.S.Relief rallies are also most prevalent during long-term downturns, such as during the 2000s dot-com bubble or 2008 financial crisis.As negotiations play out, uncertainty, the bane of markets, is still the name of the game, and could be part of the plan — if there really was one — as well.What you need to know todayTrump drops tariffs to 10% for 90 days U.S. President Donald Trump cut new tariff rates on imports from most U.S. trade partners to 10% for 90 days to allow negotiations with those countries. Trump announced the pause on Wednesday, hours after goods from nearly 90 nations became subject to stiffer, so-called reciprocal tariffs. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told reporters the pullback in tariffs was Trump’s strategy “all along.” However, Trump raised tariffs on imports from China to 125% after Beijing on Wednesday hiked its tariffs on U.S. imports to 84% from 34% starting April 10.Massive and historic stock surgeU.S. stocks rocketed Wednesday as a relief rally gripped markets. The S&P 500 surged 9.52% for its biggest one-day gain since 2008 and the third-biggest jump in post-WWII history. The Dow Jones Industrial Average popped 7.87%, its biggest advance since March 2020. The Nasdaq Composite spiked 12.16%, notching its largest one-day gain since January 2001 and second-best day ever. About 30 billion shares traded hands, making it the heaviest volume day on Wall Street in history, according to records that go back 18 years.Just a dead-cat bounce?It might be too early to cheer the market gains. The Nasdaq Composite had its second-best day Wednesday, trailing only its 14.17% jump in January 2001 — which was in the middle of the dot-com crash. And during the financial crisis in October 2008, the Nasdaq enjoyed two of its best five days ever. Call it a dead-cat bounce, a relief rally or short covering. It’s a familiar reaction during the worst of times for Wall Street, wrote CNBC’s Ari Levy.Asian tech stocks popAsia-Pacific markets rose in tandem with Wall Street on Thursday. Japan’s Nikkei 225 soared over 8% and South Korea’s Kospi popped more than 6%. Both indexes were juiced by gains in Asian tech giants such as Renesas Electron, SoftBank Group, SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics. Hong Kong-listed shares, however, did not rise as much, as investor sentiment was dampened by the escalating U.S.-China trade war.More signs of deflation in ChinaChina’s consumer price index in March slipped 0.1% year on year, remaining in deflationary territory after contracting 0.7% in February, according to data released by the National Statistics Bureau Thursday. A Reuters poll of economists had expected a flat reading compared with the same period last year. Producer prices fell for the 29th straight month, dropping 2.5% in March from a year earlier.[PRO] Goldman raises, then cuts, recession oddsLess than an hour before Trump’s tariff pause, Goldman Sachs hiked its forecast of a U.S. recession and predicted the country’s economy to shrink this year — then the bank almost immediately rescinded it.

Jude Bellingham was not shocked by Madrid’s display after a campaign littered with defeats and tactical muddleOn the way out of the Emirates, someone asked Kylian Mbappé whether Real Madrid could still do this. “Course we can,” he replied, three words and then he was gone. In front of him, Vinícius Júnior left in silence. Rodrygo passed by unnoticed again. Luka Modric didn’t talk, nor did Fede Valverde. Lucas Vázquez and Raúl Asencio did, then Thibaut Courtois and Jude Bellingham. “We weren’t good,” Vázquez admitted. “We forgot to play well,” Courtois said. “It’s not what what we expected,” Asencio said, but it wasn’t unexpected either, which is why it was the description Bellingham didn’t use which said it best.Asked whether he was shocked, Bellingham said: “I don’t know if ‘shocked’ is the right word.” No one who has watched them all year could have truly been shocked by this, except that they’re Real Madrid, stupid, and somehow Real Madrid always seem to find a way. “There is nothing we can draw from external excuses or anything like that; we have to look at ourselves,” Bellingham said. “These are similar sets of themes to when we have dropped points all season. It’s happened again tonight on a larger scale.” Continue reading...

It will also feature "some returning Apex characters" and a weather system.But the leaker also teased that there will be a huge new mode that has become prevalent since Titanfall 2 dropped. Osvaldatore says the main mode of Titanfall 3 is called Extraction, and they posted an altered Escape From Tarkov image which says "Escape From The Frontier: Titanfall 3," teasing that the mode will be similar to the popular loot, shoot, and escape mode.Don't fret, though, because they also said "all Titanfall 2 classic modes" will also be making a comeback, including Team Deathmatch, Control, and Arenas. Still, I'm incredibly interested in seeing how an Extraction mode would utilize Titans, because that would be one of the more thrilling ways to jump on a dropship and get out of harm's way with loot.How would Titanfall's abilities, jetpacks, wall-running, and other mechanics work in an extraction mode? This all sounds very interesting, especially with a loot pool of returning weapons from the series that have been made even more famous in Apex since.Obviously, all of this must be taken loosely until there's official confirmation from EA and Respawn Entertainment, but with the summer season rapidly approaching, we are in for a number of big announcements for games launching in 2025 and beyond. Titanfall 3 could well be one of those games.The post ‘Almost complete’ Titanfall 3 features Apex Legends cast, multiplayer, and campaign, leaks say appeared first on Destructoid.

MacworldBuying a new MacBook can be a costly affair. The cheapest model will run you around $1000, with prices quickly going up from there if you want extra storage, memory or a Pro model. Thankfully, there is now an excellent program from Upgraded that helps you spread the cost out over 36 months so that not only can you easily afford the latest Apple laptop, but you can also upgrade every 24 months to a brand-new machine without it emptying your bank account.How Upgraded makes it easy to afford a new MacBookFor a while now Apple has offered its iPhone Upgrade Program, which lets you pay for a monthly fee for a new iPhone, with the option to replace it with the latest model every 12 months. Sadly, this doesn’t extend to Macs, so Upgraded has come up with an innovative way to help those who want to buy a new MacBook but don’t want to lay down all that cash in one go.The idea of the company’s MacBook Upgrade Program is simple. Select the MacBook model you want to buy – either the MacBook Air M4 or MacBook Pro M4 – then put together your preferred configuration of color, memory, and storage. When this is done, you’ll be shown how much the monthly repayments will be across 36 months.For instance, you can pick up the baseline MacBook Air M4 with a low cost of $33.28 p/m or the MacBook Pro M4 at only $52.17 p/m. These prices also include AppleCare+, which is standard on all Upgraded plans.UpgradedIf your credit score is above 740 you’ll have no interest at all, while those with lower scores will pay a variable rate that will be shown on the payment plan breakdown. Upgraded also states that checking for financial eligibility won’t affect your credit score, so there’s no risk at all in applying.Best of all, there’s also an option to trade in the MacBook after 24 months, and replace it with a new model instead, meaning you’ll never have to stick with an older machine and miss out on the new features Apple keeps for its latest iterations of the Mac. You can repeat this offer every 24 months, so you’ll always have the latest tech at your fingertips, but without the huge bill.Those who prefer to stick with the initial MacBook can just pay out the 36 months, then the device is theirs to keep forever.Good for your pocket and the environmentThe MacBook Upgrade Program is backed by some of the tech industry’s most respected names, so you know your money is safe and you’ll be getting the devices direct from trusted sellers. All the MacBooks are supplied by GatorTec, an Apple Premier Partner, and the financing comes from Citizens Pay, which is the same bank used for Apple’s iPhone Upgrade Program.Upgraded is also backed by OpenAI President Greg Brockman as well as US tech startup accelerator Y Combinator whose previous successes include AirBnB, Reddit, Dropbox, and Twitch.The company’s commitment to the environment also means you can buy with confidence, as all MacBooks that are returned after 24-months as part of the upgrade program are refurbished and given a new lease on life, ensuring they don’t end up in a landfill contributing to the growing problem of e-waste.UpgradedGet yourself a new MacBook today with UpgradedTimes are tough at the moment, with prices already beginning to rise across the world due to trade friction and inflation. This makes it essential that consumers squeeze all they can out of every dollar. With the MacBook Upgrade Program you not only get a brand new MacBook, plus a set rate of repayments for the next 36 months, you also still have money in your pocket to pay for other essentials. This makes it the best way to invest in new technology while also protecting yourself from the uncertainty around the world. Visit Upgraded today and see how its MacBook Upgrade Program can spread the cost and lower the stress of buying a new MacBook in 2025.Visit Upgraded

In an incredibly shocking turn of events, more generative AI features are coming to the Google Workspace suite of productivity apps by way of Gemini. Docs, Sheets, Chat, Meet and newcomer Vids are among the tools that are getting new AI capabilities that perhaps some folks will find useful.Google is taking a cue from audio overviews in NotebookLM to bring new Gemini-powered audio features to Docs. You'll soon have the option of listening to full audio versions of your documents or just the highlights in what Google calls a podcast-style overview. Those enrolled in the Workspace alpha testing program can start trying out these audio features in the coming weeks.By the end of June, alpha testers will have access to an AI writing coach of sorts. The "help me refine" feature is said to offer suggestions on bolstering an argument, ensuring consistent formatting, enhancing the structure of the text and clarifying key points.A similar feature is coming to Sheets later this year. The "help me analyze" tool will seemingly point out trends you might have overlooked, offer pointers on where to dig deeper for more insights and whip up charts to visualize the data.In Meet, you'll soon be able to ask Gemini to recap parts of a meeting you missed because you were running late, clarify certain decisions or topics, generate a recap in the format of your choice and help refine a point before you raise a virtual arm to join the conversation. This so-called "personal in-meeting advisor" will be generally available in Meet before the end of June.As for Chat, Google will soon offer the option to mention @gemini in a conversation to receive a summary that includes open questions, important decisions that were made and lays out next steps. It could be a useful way to distill everything that happened in a bustling group chat. This capability will be available through the Labs early-access program in the coming weeks.In Vids, you'll soon be able to generate what Google says are "high-quality, original" clips using the Veo 2 model (perhaps ignoring the fact that generative video AI models mash together footage that they were trained on and arguably don't create anything truly original at all). Workspace alpha can get their hands on this in the coming weeks.Elsewhere, there's another new feature called Google Workspace Flows. Google bills this as "a brand-new way to automate and orchestrate work across your apps, powered by AI." It employs Gems, customizable AI agents that can be created with Gemini, to take care of specialized tasks, such as researching, analyzing and generating content.The company says that Workspace Flows can, for instance, address a customer support ticket by analyzing the issue, researching a solution and drafting a reply that the support team can review before sending. Gems can mine your Google Drive files for context. Google's also working with third-party partners to integrate Workspace Flows into their apps and tools. Google is now rolling out Workspace Flows in the alpha program.Lastly, as of today, Google will allow Workspace users to choose where Gemini processes their data. So if you're in the European Union and don't want your data to travel to the US (or vice versa), that's now an option. Google makes it clear that this is to help comply with regulations such as the EU's GDPR.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/surprise-google-workspace-is-adding-more-ai-tools-to-docs-sheets-chat-and-other-apps-143644125.html?src=rss

U.S. Treasury yields surged Wednesday as U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs regime continued to rattle markets.At 5:40 a.m. ET, the 10-year Treasury jumped 10 basis points to 4.363%, with the 2-year Treasury yield rising 7 points to 3.808%.One basis point is equivalent to 0.01%. Yields and prices move in opposite directions.Investors are still reeling from the impact of U.S. President Donald Trump’s so-called reciprocal tariffs imposed on over 180 countries last week. Customs are expected to start collecting new tariffs on imports from 86 nations on Wednesday.A total tariff rate of 104% on Chinese imports went into effect overnight, after China retaliated with 34% tariffs on U.S. imports on Friday, with the two countries now embroiled in a full-blown trade war.Meanwhile, Canada retaliated with 25% tariffs on U.S.-made vehicles, including vehicles that aren’t compliant with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.Investors are looking to the release of the consumer price index on Thursday and the Producer Price Index on Friday, which will offer fresh insights about the health of the U.S. economy.There are also some concerns after the Treasury Department’s auction on Tuesday for 3-year Treasury notes saw weak demand.“Perhaps even more alarmingly, U.S. Treasury markets are also experiencing an incredibly aggressive selloff as we go to press, adding to the evidence that they’re losing their traditional haven status,” Henry Allen, vice president and macro-strategist at Deutsche Bank, said in a note.“Given the scale of the rout, that’s raising questions about whether the Federal Reserve might need to respond to stabilise market conditions, and we can even see from fed funds futures that markets are pricing a growing probability of an emergency cut, just as we saw during the Covid turmoil and the height of the GFC in 2008.”

Europe’s auto giants slipped on Wednesday, extending recent losses as U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries came into effect. Germany’s Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz Group and BMW were all trading more than 1% lower, with the latter notching a fresh 52-week low. Analysts warn that German car manufacturers are likely to be the most exposed to the U.S. trade measures. Picture Alliance | Picture Alliance | Getty ImagesA Volkswagen emblem, attached to a tower at the Volkswagen Osnabrück GmbH plant, can be seen behind a red traffic light.Europe’s auto giants slipped on Wednesday morning, extending recent losses as U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries came into effect — including a whopping 104% levy on China.Trump’s latest trade measures, which came into force as of 5 a.m. London time, include a 20% tariff on the European Union, a 24% tariff on Japan and a 49% levy on Cambodia.These “reciprocal” measures will be applied separately and not on top of existing U.S. auto tariffs, according to S&P Global.Last Thursday, the Trump administration implemented a 25% charge on all foreign cars imported into the U.S. The White House said it also intends to place tariffs on some auto parts no later than May 3.Shares of French car parts supplier Valeo traded down 4.3% on Wednesday morning, tumbling toward the bottom of the pan-European Stoxx 600 index.Germany’s Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz Group and BMW fell as much as 3%, before paring losses, with the latter notching a fresh 52-week low.In Asia, Japan’s Nissan and Toyota fell 7% and 2.6%, respectively, on Wednesday. Analysts warn that German car manufacturers are likely to be the most exposed to the U.S. trade measures.“The tariffs are a blow for especially the German car makers which export hundreds of thousands of units to the US annually (749,000 in 2024) and produce many cars in the US itself which require European parts,” Rico Luman, senior sector economist for transport and logistics at Dutch bank ING, told CNBC in emailed comments.“It’s hard to work around the tariffs, and they seem to stay at least a while, so they need to deal with it and will have to reconsider product offerings, pricing and manufacturing footprints,” he added.China’s foreign ministry on Wednesday responded to the latest U.S. levies by pledging to take “resolute and forceful” measures to protect its own interests.An escalating trade war is expected to have a profound impact on the global car industry, particularly given the high globalization of supply chains and the heavy reliance on manufacturing operations across North America.In the days since Trump’s auto tariffs came into effect, car giants have responded by announcing plans to raise prices, impose import fees, pause shipments, idle plants and even lay off staff.Bloomberg | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesA logo outside the BMW AG showroom in Madrid, Spain, on Friday, March 28, 2025.ING’s Luman said that, while a drop in U.S. unit sales will likely hurt German carmakers amid an already complex set of challenges, this picture “doesn’t look dramatic” just yet.“China is indeed even more important, and their home market require more attention,” Luman said. “I would say that bolstering competitive strength and selling more cars in the European home market (and perhaps develop other export markets across the world) will be the focus.”Tariff exposure“BMW and Mercedes are among the top exporters of cars by value from the US, thus the most exposed to retaliatory tariffs among the European automakers,” Rella Suskin, equity analyst at Morningstar, told CNBC by email.She added that both companies could face double tariffs on vehciles manufactured in Mexico and Canada.“However, we think most of the models that these companies manufacture in Mexico or Canada can easily be substituted with vehicles imported from Europe, which attract only the worldwide 25% auto tariff,” she added.

Five Details That Most Observers Missed From SIPRI's Latest International Arms Trends Report Authored by Andrew Korybko via substack,The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), which is regarded as the top authority on the international arms trade, released its latest report about related trends from 2020-2024 last month. Their fact sheet did a nice job pointing out such trends as the 64% drop in Russian arms exports between 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 as well as Qatar more than doubling its arms imports to become the world’s third-largest importer, but there are still five details that evaded most observers:1. Israel Isn’t Among The US’ Top Ten Arms RecipientsSIPRI casually mentioned that “Israel was the 11th largest recipient of US arms exports in 2020–24 with a share of 3.0 per cent” right after reporting that Saudi Arabia received 12% and Qatar 7.7%. Framed differently, the Saudis received four times as many arms as Israel did and Qatar two and a half times, which challenges popular perceptions of Israel’s role in the US’ military-industrial complex. These facts deserve further reflection, but the conclusions might upset some activists in the Alt-Media Community.2. The US Is Replicating Russia’s “Military Diplomacy”Russia is known for practicing a policy of “military diplomacy” whereby it arms friendly pairs of rivals (Armenia-Azerbaijan, China-India, China-Vietnam, etc.) with the intent of maintaining the balance of power between them and thus advancing political solutions to their disputes. The US is now replicating that policy in the Gulf by arming Saudi Arabia and Qatar, which still view each other suspiciously despite their nominal rapprochement, but it’s unclear whether this can help keep the peace between them.3. Italy Relied On The Mideast To Double Its ExportsItaly surprised everyone by more than doubling its arms exports to become the world’s sixth-largest supplier upon carving out a comfortable niche for itself in the Mideast. Qatar (28%), Egypt (18%), and Kuwait (18%) collectively constitute almost 2/3 of its sales over the past half-decade and little less than a quarter (24%) of Turkiye’s arms imports came from Italy during this time too. Italy also now has more “other armoured vehicles” on order or preselected for future sales than any of its competitors too.4. Poland’s Arms Transfers To Ukraine Were DonationsSIPRI lists Poland as the world’s 13th-larget arms exporter during this period due to it transferring over 40x more equipment than during the last one, 96% of which was to Ukraine, but they omitted to mention that these were all donations. According to its outgoing president’s official website, Poland gave more tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and aircraft to Ukraine than anyone else. Since they were all transferred pro bono, however, that should have been explicitly mentioned in SIPRI’s report.5. The Chinese-Serbian Arms Trade Deserves AttentionOne of the most intriguing trends from SIPRI’s report is that China’s second-largest arms market is Serbia at 6.8% of its exports, which comprised 57% of Serbia’s imports, nearly three times as many as from Russia (20%). This proves that Serbia’s pro-Western military pivot, which was analyzed here in January after its Chief of General Staff admitted that sanctions led to lost Russian arms contracts, is milder than thought. Evidently, Serbia envisages balancing between China and the EU, which is a unique policy.The abovementioned five details are nowhere near as significant as the top takeaways that from SIPRI’s fact sheet, but they’re nevertheless still important enough that observers should be aware of them and then monitor how they might develop. The US’ Russian-inspired “military diplomacy” in the Gulf and Italy’s unexpected rise as a major Mideast arms dealer are the main ones to pay attention to if observers are pressed to choose since they could have a much greater geopolitical impact than the other three.

He didn't tell us exactly what happens, but he confirmed it won't do anything... bad."Sorry, I can't get into the details of what exactly pops up or shows up when you press the button [when you're not online], but just rest assured nothing bad's going to happen," he said.Continue Reading at GameSpot

When we picture sea turtles in the wild, it's easy to envision them as armored warriors—their hard, resilient shells serving as near-impenetrable shields against oceanic threats like sharks. These sleek, streamlined shells aren't just defensive—they're engineered for speed, efficiency and survival. Designed to minimize drag, they allow sea turtles to glide effortlessly through the water, dive to astonishing depths, and handle the immense pressure shifts as they surface.

Concerns are mounting that U.S. President Donald Trump’s aggressive tariffs could derail Vietnam’s ambitious growth target despite diplomatic overtures to Washington that economists say are unlikely to shift policy soon. Vietnam will face a more challenging path to reach a deal with Washington than others in Asia, said Chetan Ahya, chief Asia economist at Morgan Stanley, thanks in part to its large trade surplus with the U.S. and its role in facilitating the rerouting of Chinese companies’ supply chains. The country derived nearly 90% of its annual gross domestic product from exports of goods and services in 2023, according to estimates from the World Bank.Vietnam has long been viewed as a successful example of embracing external trade, luring some of the largest companies in the world to establish hubs to manufacture everything from footwear to electronic products that grace shops around the world.But now, concerns are mounting that U.S. President Donald Trump’s aggressive tariffs could derail Vietnam’s ambitious growth target despite diplomatic overtures to Washington that economists say are unlikely to shift policy soon.Trump hit the Southeast Asian nation with a 46% import duty, one of the steepest among the over 180 countries targeted, dealing a heavy blow to a nation that derived nearly 90% of its annual gross domestic product from exports of goods and services in 2023, according to estimates from the World Bank.The new levies could shave 1.2 percentage point off Vietnam’s economic growth this year, according to estimates by a team of economists at OCBC Bank, prompting them to lower their GDP forecast for the country to 5% in 2025. That would mark a significant dent to Hanoi’s ambitious target of “at least 8%” this year.Growth in the Southeast Asian economy has already slowed this year, expanding 6.93% in the first quarter, down from 7.55% the quarter before.Vietnam has emerged as a manufacturing hub for many companies that sell goods in the U.S., including multinational consumer goods retailers such as Nike, Adidas, Uniqlo and Apple Inc, because of a blend of relatively cheap labor costs and supportive government policies.According to Nike’s annual earnings report for 2024, factories in Vietnam manufactured 50% of its footwear and 28% of its apparel products, while Adidas sourced 39% of its footwear items from Vietnam last year. Apple has also expanded its manufacturing presence in Vietnam in recent years, with around 20% of iPad production and 90% of Apple’s wearable product assembly like Apple Watch taking place in Vietnam.Since the last U.S.-China trade war erupted during Trump’s first term in 2018, many Chinese manufacturers have also moved their production to Vietnam to avoid U.S. tariffs.Vietnam’s trade surplus in goods with the U.S. more than tripled to a record high of $123.5 billion last year from less than $40 billion in 2018, according to U.S. data which pegged Vietnam’s goods exported to the U.S. at $136.6 billion in 2024.The new levies announced by Trump last week could slash Vietnam’s total goods exports by as much as 40% this year, according to OCBC Bank. The bank cited data from Vietnam’s customs authority, which showed that Vietnam’s goods exports to the U.S. accounted for around 30% of its total trade turnover.The new duties may also reduce the allure of setting up a manufacturing base in the country, weighing on foreign direct investment flowing into Vietnam.But as is often the case with international trade statistics, there are discrepancies between the official numbers reported by the U.S. and Vietnam, partly because of differences in valuation methods.Nguyen Thu Oanh, head of the inflation department at the statistics office, said Sunday the new U.S. tariffs could lead some foreign companies to move part of their production out of Vietnam, Bloomberg reported.“The reciprocal tariffs on ASEAN and India will hurt the ‘China+1’ strategy that has benefited the region for some years now,” said the economists at OCBC Bank, but “it will take time for global supply chains to adjust.”Tough road for dealAside from China, Vietnam will face a more challenging path to reach a deal with Washington than others in Asia, said Chetan Ahya, chief Asia economist at Morgan Stanley, thanks in part to its large trade surplus with the U.S. and its role in facilitating the rerouting of Chinese companies’ supply chains.After a phone call with Trump last Friday, Vietnam’s party chief To Lam said in a readout that the country is willing to remove all levies on U.S. imports, bringing the tariff rate to 0% if the Trump administration does the same for Vietnamese exports to the U.S.He also reiterated Hanoi’s commitment to boosting imports from the U.S. to reduce the bilateral trade surplus and encouraged American companies to increase investments in Vietnam.In response to questions about Vietnam’s zero-tariff offer, White House trade advisor Peter Navarro said it was not enough to warrant a cancellation of the new levies.“Let’s take Vietnam. When they come to us and say ‘we’ll go to zero tariffs,’ that means nothing to us because it’s the nontariff cheating that matters,” Navarro told CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”The examples of “nontariff cheating” cited by Navarro included Chinese products being routed through Vietnam, intellectual property theft and value-added tax on goods, which Trump has criticized as hidden trade barriers.In the lead-up to Trump’s widespread “reciprocal tariffs,” Hanoi sought to offer trade compromises, including lowering tariffs on several U.S. products, such as liquefied natural gas and cars, and approving a trial run for the Starlink satellite internet service in the country.China has retaliated with a 34% additional tariff on all U.S. goods, but most Asian economies have chosen to refrain from direct retaliation.Asian economies’ negotiation with the U.S. may not “yield desired results, especially for countries running large trade surplus with the U.S., such as Vietnam,” said Michael Wan, senior Asia economist at MUFG Bank.While Vietnam’s negotiation with the Trump administration may “bear some fruits,” it is unlikely the U.S. will offer to cut tariffs “drastically” from proposed levels, he said.China’s retaliation has complicated Vietnam’s negotiations with U.S., as policymakers worry Chinese firms might exploit the more lenient tariffs on Vietnam, Wan said.

Kremlin Complains Its Questions On Ukraine Ceasefire Unanswered By US The Kremlin has complained that progress toward achieving Ukraine war ceasefire talks with the United States has been stalled as it awaits answers to key questions issued to the Trump administration.President Vladimir Putin still supports the idea of a ceasefire, a new Monday Kremlin statement said, but Russia has yet to be given answers which could bring progress to talks. Moscow has called these "crucial conditions" which must be me before any future ceasefire can take effect."President Putin does support the idea of the need for a ceasefire, but before that a number of questions must be answered," Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters."These questions are still hanging in the air; so far no one has given an answer to them," he emphasized.For example, Putin has said there would have to be some kind of agreed-upon verification mechanism to ensure Ukraine's military doesn't rearm during any truce period.But the Kremlin has also said it is dubious this could ever actually be achieved in reality due to the significant numbers of "extremist and nationalist units" within the Ukrainian military's ranks.Putin had starting in mid-March conveyed a list of conditions in response to a proposed 30-day US-backed ceasefire, via state media translation:—“guarantees that during the 30-day ceasefire, Ukraine will not conduct mobilization, will not train soldiers, and will not receive weapons,” Putin said during a press briefing with his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko in Moscow.—“These 30 days — how will they be used? To continue forced mobilization in Ukraine? To receive more arms supplies? To train newly mobilized units? Or will none of this happen?” Putin asked.—Enforcing a ceasefire over such a vast battlefield would be difficult, he added, violations could be easily disputed, leading to a blame game between both sides. Systems of “control and verification” to monitor a ceasefire are not in place but should be agreed.Also, back in January Putin had explained why a short-term truce will be rejected. He had said at the time, "The goal should not be a short truce, not some kind of respite for regrouping forces and rearmament with the aim of subsequently continuing the conflict, but a long-term peace based on respect for the legitimate interests of all people, all nations living in this region."Rubio last week: "We’re not interested in negotiations about negotiations, this thing will not last forever."‘We’re not interested in negotiations about negotiations, this thing will not last forever’ – #Marco_Rubio on Ukraine talks progress#USA | #Ukraine | #Russia pic.twitter.com/w2DmWjYYea— ⚡️🌎 World News 🌐⚡️ (@ferozwala) April 4, 2025Currently an 'energy site ceasefire' is on, but since it was supposedly agreed to by both Moscow and Kiev last month, both have complained of repeat violations. Russia says it has submitted a list of these violations to Washington but hasn't received a response on this either. Tyler DurdenMon, 04/07/2025 - 22:35

Water decks have always had a solid place in the Pokémon TCG Pocket meta, especially with Misty being such a feast-or-famine card. So if you're looking to play the best Water decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket, here's what you need to know.Table of contentsPokémon TCG Pocket best Water decksTeam PalkiaWugtrio ExPokémon TCG Pocket best Water decksTeam PalkiaScreenshot by DestructoidCardAmountSetPalkia Ex2Space-Time Smackdown (Palkia)Origin Forme Palkia2Triumphant LightManaphy2Space-Time Smackdown (Palkia)Vaporeon2Mythical IslandMisty2Genetic Apex (Pikachu)Irida2Triumphant LightProfessor's Research2Promo-A (Store)Poke Ball2Promo-A (Store)Sabrina1Genetic Apex (Charizard)Cyrus1Space-Time Smackdown (Palkia)Leaf2Mythical IslandThis decklist makes use of both Palkia Ex and Origin Forme Palkia as your main damage dealers. The idea here is to build them up quickly with Manaphy and/or Misty, while using Vaporeon's Wash Out ability to move your Energy as necessary. The strength of the deck doesn't just lie in Palkia's raw damage output, but also its flexibility with how you're moving Energy around.There's a catch, of course. If you low roll even a little bit, you can struggle against Electric-type decks, and that'll most likely result in a loss for you.Wugtrio ExScreenshot by DestructoidCardAmountSetWiglett2Shining RevelryWugtrio Ex2Shining RevelryManaphy2Space-Time Smackdown (Palkia)Professor's Research2Promo-A (Store)Poke Ball2Promo-A (Store)Misty2Genetic Apex (Pikachu)Irida2Triumphant LightGiant Cape2Space-Time Smackdown (Dialga)X Speed2Promo-A (Store)Pokemon Communication2Space-Time Smackdown (Dialga)I'm a huge fan of Wugtrio Ex, not because it has a high win rate, but because matches go by so quickly whether you win or lose, making this a fantastic deck to take with you into ranked mode. Your only basic Pokémon here are Wiglett and Manaphy, and that's pretty much all you need.Ideally, you'll want to start with Wiglett, but if you start with Manaphy, use that to build up Energy on your Bench. Using Pokémon Communication is key here, and you'll need to use it smartly with Poké Ball. For instance, if you have both Pokémon Communication and Poké Ball in your hand and you're looking for your Wugtrio Ex, use Communication to send one of your Basics to fish for it, then use Poké Ball to bring that Basic back.Efficient use of your Supporter cards will help ensure that you always have the tools you need in hand, even with such a low Pokémon count in your deck. After that, it's just a matter of trying to high roll with Misty, and slapping your opponent with Pop Out Throughout. This deck is a little RNG-dependent, but it's a lot of fun and you'll be surprised with how quickly it gets you through your ranked matches.And those are our picks for the best Water decks to build in Pokémon TCG Pocket. If you're looking for more Fire decks to play, we've got you covered on that front as well.The post Best Water decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket appeared first on Destructoid.

MCP는 AI 시스템이 다양한 데이터 소스와 표준화된 방식으로 연결할 수 있도록 돕는 개방형 프로토콜로, 최근 특히 주목받고 있다.클라우드플레어 제품 부문 부사장 리타 코즐로브는 “MCP에 대한 기대가 높은 이유는 앞으로 LLM이 API나 도구를 활용하는 데 있어 MCP가 인터페이스 역할을 하게 될 가능성이 커지고 있기 때문”이라고 설명했다.클라우드플레어는 지난 3월 원격 MCP 서버를 구축하고 배포할 수 있는 개발자용 도구를 공개한 데 이어, 이번에는 MCP 클라이언트 측 기능을 크게 확장했다. 새롭게 추가된 기능을 통해 개발자는 자체 인증 및 전송 기능이 내장된 원격 MCP 클라이언트를 구축할 수 있으며, 이를 통해 AI 에이전트가 외부 서비스와 보다 안전하게 연결되고 상호작용할 수 있다.이와 함께, 클라우드플레어는 OAuth 인증 과정을 에이전트 SDK에 직접 통합해, 개발자가 별도로 인증 로직을 구현하지 않아도 AI 에이전트가 다양한 원격 MCP 서버에 안전하게 인증 및 연결할 수 있도록 했다.이번 확장에는 스티치(Stytch)의 ‘Stytch Connected Apps용 원격 MCP 인증’을 비롯해 Auth0와 WorkOS의 AuthKit과의 통합도 포함됐다.또한, 장시간 실행되며 대기 시간이 긴 에이전트 세션의 비용을 절감하기 위해, 클라우드플레어는 웹소켓 휴면 API를 MCP 에이전트(McpAgent)에 도입했다. 이를 통해 상태를 유지하는 원격 MCP 서버는 비활성 상태일 때 자동으로 절전 모드로 전환되며, 필요 시 다시 활성화된다.컨설팅 기업 레드몽크(Redmonk) 수석 애널리스트 레이철 스티븐스는 “MCP는 아직 초기 단계이고 다듬어야 할 부분이 많지만, 클라우드플레어처럼 MCP를 지원하는 기술과 벤더가 하나둘 늘어날수록 MCP의 입지는 조금씩 확고해지고 있다”라고 분석했다.듀러블 오브젝트와 워크플로우 기능 강화클라우드플레어는 서버리스 환경에서 컴퓨팅과 저장 기능을 결합해 상태 기반 애플리케이션을 구축할 수 있는 도구인 ‘듀러블 오브젝트(Durable Object)’도 주요 기반 기술로 삼고 있다. 코즐로브는 “듀러블 오브젝트는 과거 선호나 이전 이벤트에 따라 행동을 달리하는 등 문맥을 유지해야 하는 AI 에이전트에 적합한 기반 기술”이라고 설명했다.과거에 유료 사용자만 이용할 수 있었던 듀러블 오브젝트 기능은 이번에 무료 티어에 포함됐다. 개발자는 인프라를 별도로 관리하지 않고도 상태 기반 애플리케이션을 개발할 수 있게 됐다.클라우드플레어 워크플로우(Workflows)도 이번에 베타 단계에서 정식 출시됐다. 이 기능은 개발자가 자동 재시도, 상태 저장, 수분~수주 단위의 실행 등을 지원하는 다단계 애플리케이션을 쉽게 구축할 수 있게 해준다. 이 역시 무료 티어로 제공되며, 사용자에게 최대 하루 10만 회 호출, 실행당 최대 10밀리초, 1GB 저장 공간이 제공된다.코즐로브는 “개발 초기 단계에서 제한에 부딪히지 않도록 충분한 사용량을 무료로 제공하고자 했다”고 언급하며, “이번 주 중 추가 컴포넌트들도 무료 티어에 포함될 예정”이라고 말했다.관리형 RAG 파이프라인 ‘오토RAG’클라우드플레어는 완전 관리형 검색 기반 생성(RAG) 파이프라인인 ‘오토RAG(AutoRAG)’도 베타 단계로 공개했다. 발표에 따르면 “오토RAG는 몇 번의 클릭만으로 전체 RAG 파이프라인을 자동으로 구축할 수 있으며, 데이터 수집과 자동 청킹, 임베딩 처리부터 벡터 저장소(Vectorize 데이터베이스) 저장, 의미 기반 검색, 고품질 응답 생성까지 모두 포함된다”고 설명했다.또한 “오토RAG는 데이터 소스와 인덱스를 백그라운드에서 지속적으로 모니터링해, 별도 조작 없이도 AI 모델이 최신 정보를 유지하도록 돕는다”라고 밝혔다.아우터베이스 인수···데이터 관리 역량 강화클라우드플레어는 개발자용 데이터베이스 플랫폼인 아우터베이스를 인수했다고 7일 발표했다. 이번 인수를 통해 클라우드플레어 플랫폼에 아우터베이스의 데이터 탐색기, 새로운 REST API, 쿼리 에디터, 실시간 데이터 캡처 기능 등이 통합될 예정이다.아우터베이스 공동 설립자 브랜든 스트리트매터와 클라우드플레어 제품 디렉터 맷 실버록은 블로그를 통해 “이번 인수로 인해 호스팅 방식의 아우터베이스 클라우드는 오는 2025년 10월 15일 종료된다”라며 “기존 사용자 중 일부는 현재 플랫폼에 의존하고 있기 때문에 오픈소스 저장소는 유지한다”라고 전했다.또한 “사용자는 원한다면 아우터베이스를 직접 호스팅할 수 있으며, 클라우드플레어 계정 내에서 이를 구현하는 방법도 제공할 계획”이라며 “궁극적인 목표는 아우터베이스의 핵심 기능을 클라우드플레어 개발자 경험 안에 통합해, 별도 선택 없이도 활용할 수 있게 만드는 것”이라고 언급했다.에이전트 개발을 위한 통합 플랫폼 방향 제시마지막으로, 클라우드플레어는 앞서 소개한 모든 에이전트 관련 기능을 한 곳에서 살펴볼 수 있도록 전용 랜딩페이지를 개설했다.리드몽크의 스티븐스는 “이번 주 클라우드플레어 발표는 엣지 환경에서 개발자 생산성과 성능을 개선하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있다”라며 “MCP와 같은 발표는 현재 기술 흐름을 정확히 반영한 것이고, 다른 기능들은 주목을 덜 받을 수 있지만 플랫폼에 필요한 점진적인 기능 개선과 고객의 불편을 줄이는 데 기여하고 있다”라고 평가했다[email protected]

Residents of Frankfort, Kentucky, were placed under a mandatory curfew on Sunday, April 6, after four days of heavy rain deluged parts of the state and caused the Kentucky River to swell to near-record levels.Video captured by Brian D Pulliam shows a dock floating down the Kentucky River and crashing into War Mothers Memorial Bridge, also known as the Capital Avenue Bridge.Other footage verified by Storyful showed the strong river currents drag the dock under the bridge and out the other side.The Frankfort Plant Board shared video of the bridge to Facebook and said crews successfully repaired a water pipe damaged in the crash.Frankfort Mayor Layne Wilkerson enacted a curfew for all flood-affected areas of the city from 8 pm Sunday to 6 am Monday. “We understand that this curfew may cause inconvenience, but it is a necessary measure to ensure public safety, prevent looting and vandalism and will allow our first responders and recovery teams to operate efficiently,” Wilkerson said.The Kentucky River was at 48.14 feet on Monday morning, some 17 feet above flood stage and just shy of the 48.47-foot record, officials said. The rain had caused “widespread and exceedingly rare major river flooding,” according to the National Weather Service. Credit: Brian D Pulliam via Storyful

Vladimir Putin congratulates Alex Ovechkin on ‘outstanding’ NHL goals record
Bibi In Washington: 1st Foreign Leader To Negotiate Removal Of Trump's Tariffs In Person Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in Washington on Sunday for a visit to the White House, in a stay which is planned through Tuesday. The two leaders are meeting Monday afternoon.He will be the first foreign leader to meet President Trump in-person in an effort to negotiate a deal to remove Trump's tariffs, which for Israel is a 17% rate, the result of a significant US bilateral trade deficit."Upon his arrival in Washington with his wife, Sara Netanyahu, the premier headed from the airport to Blair House in a convoy, where he met with US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer," Israeli media wrote.Via Associated PressAnd Axios noted just ahead of the the trip that Israel tried to "avoid the tariffs Trump imposed on nearly every country in the world by announcing it would preemptively lift all tariffs on U.S. products. It didn't work."This visit, which is Netanyahu's second to the White House since Trump took office (the first was in early February), was by all accounts rather hastily put together, and also high on the agenda will be the Gaza crisis. Currently there are still 59 hostages still in Hamas and Islamic Jihad captivity - with many feared deceased.Israel has controversially expanded the war, and now has Rafah surrounded once again and has ordered an evacuation of the civilian population. Hundreds of thousands have fled the southern Gaza city, also as basic necessities of life for the Palestinian population are running out.Netanyahu’s office has has further indicated that "Israel-Turkey relations, the Iranian threat and confronting the International Criminal Court" will be on the agenda.Trump may emerge from the meeting declaring that Israel is an example of how his tariff policy is working - that foreign capitals will come scrambling to negotiate.One interesting aspect to Netanyahu's travels is the impact the International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant is having on his itinerary. He's still not able to visit most of the European continent, and last week's Hungary trip was the first, after Budapest declared it would not arrest him or cooperate with the ICC.Times of Israel pointed out that "The Wing of Zion state plane took a flight path that increased the journey from Budapest to Washington by some 400 kilometers in order to avoid flying over countries seen as likely to enforce the arrest warrant issued against him by the International Criminal Court should the plane be forced to make an emergency landing."Isn't it interesting that Israel had huge tariffs on American goods, despite the billions in money we send them, and nobody who is currently outraged at Trump ever said anything about this nonsense? pic.twitter.com/iNmDSDuRnF— Cernovich (@Cernovich) April 7, 2025"As Israel believes that Ireland, Iceland and the Netherlands would all enforce the ICC warrant, issued for alleged war crimes in Gaza, Wing of Zion instead flew over Croatia, Italy and France," the report added.Hungary last week declared it is exiting membership in the The Hague-based ICC due to the action against Netanyahu, with PM Viktor Orban decrying that it's a "political tool" of Israel's enemies. The Trump White House is certainly on board with Orban's decision. Tyler DurdenMon, 04/07/2025 - 10:45

U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs and subsequent actions by other nations have cast a shadow over investors’ portfolios. Markets largely fell all around the world following the announcements, and the sell-off has extended into Monday. Trump and his administration has been defiant, with the U.S. president saying “it won’t be easy” and urging Americans to “hang tough” in a Truth Social post late Friday. Over the weekend, the European Union was reported to also be readying tariffs, targeting up to $28 billion of U.S. imports, marking the latest escalation in this conflict. China and Canada had also announced retaliatory measures last week. With such market losses, a predicted rise in consumer prices, and an increased risk of a recession from tariffs, it is admittedly hard to see what “victory” looks like for Trump who said in 2018 that “trade wars are good, and easy to win!“— Lim Hui JieWhat you need to know todayMarkets set to extend losses U.S. stock futures dropped on Monday morning, portending a third day of losses after a two-day historic stock market rout. Dow Jones Industrial average futures fell 1,033 points, or 2.68%, pointing to another brutal session ahead on Monday. S&P 500 futures shed 3.34%. Nasdaq-100 futures lost 4.26% as investors continued to shed their one-time tech winners to raise cash. Asia-Pacific markets extended their sell-off on Monday as fears over a global trade war fueled a risk-off mood. Hong Kong markets led losses in the region, with the Hang Seng Index declining 10.37%. Mainland China’s CSI 300 fell 6.31%.Japanese yen and Swiss franc top hedges against tariffsU.S. President Donald Trump’s fresh of swathe reciprocal tariffs has pushed investors toward safe haven assets. The Japanese yen, Swiss franc, bonds, as well as a few other “exotic” assets, have emerged as some of their top hedges.Crypto joins market routBitcoin fell below the $79,000 level Sunday as investors braced for more financial market volatility. The cryptocurrency is down 15% in 2025 and, absent a crypto-specific catalyst, is expected to continue moving in tandem with equities as global recession fears overshadow any regulatory tailwinds crypto was expected to benefit from this year.‘Tariffs are coming’: Commerce Secretary LutnickCommerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said the White House will not postpone the April 9 start date for reciprocal tariffs. Speaking to CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday, Lutnick said, “they are definitely going to stay in place for days and weeks,” adding “the president needs to reset global trade. Everybody has a trade surplus and we have a trade deficit.” Bessent dismisses recession fears Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Sunday dismissed concerns Americans might be having about a potential impending recession and the status of their retirement plans, saying that President Donald Trump and his administration are “building the long-term economic fundamentals for prosperity.” Speaking to NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” Bessent called it a “false narrative” that Americans who are close to retiring may be reticent to do so after their retirement savings may have dropped this week due to the stock market downturn. “In fact, most Americans don’t have everything in the market,” Bessent added.[PRO]Berkshire Hathaway weathers market routWarren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway fared better than the S&P 500 in a brutal week as investors embraced the safety of a cash-rich conglomerate, seeing softer losses compared to the broad market index. Domestically-oriented Berkshire, which also owns large manufacturing, energy and retail businesses, is still up about 8% this year.And finally...Peter Parks | Afp | Getty ImagesA man checks his phone next to an electronic board showing stocks on the Heng Seng Index in Hong Kong on April 3, 2025.China says ‘market has spoken’ after Trump tariffs spark global stocks routChina’s Foreign Ministry on Saturday said “the market has spoken” following the U.S. imposition of sweeping new tariffs and called for the White House to defuse the escalating trade war through “equal-footed consultation.”This comes as U.S. markets fell sharply for a second consecutive day on Friday, with all three major indexes dropping by more than 5% as part of a global rout.The market turmoil was exacerbated on Friday when China’s Finance Ministry announced it would impose a 34% tariff on all goods imported from the U.S. starting on April 10.

양사는 최근 서울 여의도 미래에셋생명 본사에서 LG CNS CEO 현신균 사장과 미래에셋생명 CEO 김재식 부회장 등 주요 경영진이 참석해 ‘차세대 시스템 구축을 위한 업무협약(MOU)’을 체결했다. 사업 규모는 약 1,300억원으로 향후 약 2년에 걸쳐 진행된다.LG CNS는 △생성형 AI 플랫폼 구축 △멀티 하이브리드 클라우드 환경 구현 △보험상품개발, 보험계약, 입출금 등 주요업무, 회계, 영업관리 등 업무 시스템 전반의 개편 및 고도화 등을 수행할 방침이다.LG CNS는 이번 사업을 통해 미래에셋생명 임직원들이 사내에서 활용하는 생성형 AI 플랫폼을 구축한다. 미래에셋생명이 보유한 방대한 데이터를 LLM(Large Language Model)에 학습시켜 임직원들이 업무에 필요한 정보를 더 빠르고, 손쉽게 찾아 업무에 적용할 수 있도록 돕는다는 설명이다. 미래에셋생명의 디지털 환경도 크게 바뀔 예정이다. LG CNS는 아마존웹서비스(AWS), 마이크로소프트, 구글클라우드 등 여러 클라우드 기업의 서비스를 조합해 사용하는 멀티 클라우드와, 기업이 자체 운영하는 프라이빗 클라우드를 결합한 ‘멀티 하이브리드 클라우드’ 환경을 구현한다. 이를 통해 미래에셋생명은 데이터의 보안이 중요한 업무는 내부 시스템에서 처리하고, 다른 서비스는 퍼블릭 클라우드를 사용함으로써 유연하고 효율적인 클라우드 환경을 갖출 전망이다.LG CNS는 상품개발, 보험계약, 입출금 등 보험 주요업무와 회계, 영업관리 등 미래에셋생명의 업무 시스템 전반도 전면 개편해 비즈니스 경쟁력을 극대화한다. 특히, 상품정보를 통합적으로 관리할 수 있는 체계를 수립해 고객 맞춤형 보험상품을 빠르게 출시할 수 있도록 할 예정이다. 양사는 이번 MOU를 통해 차세대 시스템 구축 사업 뿐 아니라 AI R&D 협력체계도 함께 마련하기로 합의했다. 정기 협의체를 마련해 새로운 비즈니스 모델 공동 발굴에 대한 논의를 진행하는 등 AX 분야에서 포괄적인 협력을 진행할 계획이다.LG CNS CEO 현신균 사장은 “LG CNS가 그동안 축적한 금융 IT 역량을 총동원해 미래에셋생명이 AI 기반의 차세대 시스템으로 비즈니스를 혁신할 수 있도록 지원하겠다. 앞으로도 미래에셋생명과 상생하는 AX 생태계를 구축해 미래 지속가능한 성장을 이뤄나갈 것”이라고 밝혔다[email protected]
This is CNBC’s live blog covering European markets.European stocks are expected to begin the new trading week in negative territory, as U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs regime continues to send shock waves through global markets. London’s FTSE 100 is set to shed 2% at the open, according to IG, while the German DAX is slated to move 5% lower and France’s CAC 40 is expected to lose 3.7%.Last week, the regional Stoxx 600 index notched an 8.4% loss, marking its worst week in five years. In the past decade, the Stoxx 600 only performed worse at the beginning the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.Trump announced his full list of so-called reciprocal tariffs, with investors surprised by the extent to which imports from key U.S. trading partners would be hit with new duties.The move also sparked fears of a global trade war, with China retaliating by slapping 34% tariffs on U.S. goods and the EU vowing to impose countermeasures of its own if negotiations with America fail.On Wall Street, stocks tanked toward the end of last week, with the “Magnificent Seven” mega-cap tech stocks losing more than $1 trillion in a single day. On Friday morning, U.S. stock futures moved lower as the tariffs fallout continued.Overnight in Asia, stocks also continued to sell off, led by shares listed in China. Asian economies are set to be among those hit hardest by reciprocal tariffs, with Vietnam targeted by 46% duties, China with new 34% tariffs, while Cambodia has been hit with 49% tariffs and Sri Lanka with 44%. Many of the region’s economies play key roles in international firms’ supply chains.Despite the market reaction, Trump has doubled down on his trade policies. On Sunday, the president told reporters that while he didn’t want markets to go down, “sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.”Japanese yen and Swiss franc top hedges against Trump tariffs, according to analystsInvestors are flocking to safe haven assets after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a swathe of reciprocal tariffs last week — and some are looking at the Japanese yen, bonds, as well as a few other “exotic” assets.“The Japanese yen will be a good — and probably the best — candidate to hide from trade tensions and a U.S. recession, for a whole host of familiar reasons,” said Ebrahim Rahbari, head of rates strategy at Absolute Strategy Research.Read the full story here. — Lee Ying Shan and Lim Hui JieOil giant Shell trims first-quarter LNG production outlookBrandon Bell | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesA Shell logo in Austin, Texas.British oil major Shell trimmed its first-quarter liquefied natural gas production outlook.In a trading update published Monday, the London-listed company said LNG liquefication volumes would likely reach between 6.4 million and 6.8 million metric tons, down from a previous forecast of 6.6 million to 7.2 million tons.Shell said first-quarter exploration well write-offs were expected to be around $100 million.The energy major is scheduled to report first-quarter earnings on May 2.

사이버보안 기업 옵스왓(Opswat)의 분석에 따르면, OT 보안이 점차 주요 이슈로 떠오르고 있음에도 불구하고, 전체 기업 중 단 27%만이 최고정보보안책임자(CISO)나 최고보안책임자(CSO)에게 OT 인프라 보안 예산 통제권을 위임하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. CISO 또는 CSO가 예산을 통제하지 않는 경우에는 산업 제어 시스템(ICS)과 OT 관련 핵심 요구 사항이 예산 배분에서 무시되거나 간과되는 경향이 있다는 설명이다.옵스왓이 진행한 이번 조사에서, 전체 응답 기업의 거의 절반은 전체 보안 예산의 4분의 1만을 핵심 인프라 보호에 사용하고 있다고 답했다. 또한 응답 기업 27%가 지난 12개월 동안 제어 시스템과 관련된 보안 사고를 한 번 이상 경험했다고 밝혔다.옵스왓의 EMEA 중부 지역 영업 이사인 홀거 피셔는 “사이버보안 예산은 증가했지만, 여전히 많은 투자가 IT 같은 전통적인 비즈니스 시스템에 집중되고 있다”라며 “이로 인해 ICS 및 OT 환경이 사이버 위협에 대비되지 못하고 있으며, 이는 기업 전체의 안전을 위협하는 상황으로 이어진다”라고 분석했다.IT-OT 연계 보안 전략 필요응답자의 58%는 OT 네트워크에 대한 공격이 처음에는 IT 시스템 침해를 통해 시작됐다고 밝혔다. 그 외 공격 경로로는 인터넷에 연결된 장비(33%), 엔지니어링 워크스테이션 침해(30%), 외부에 노출된 애플리케이션 취약점 악용(27%) 등이 꼽혔다.옵스왓 보고서는 “IT와 OT 환경이 긴밀히 연결돼 있다는 사실이 다시 한번 확인됐다”라며 “도메인을 넘나드는 보안 취약점을 막기 위해 통합된 보안 전략이 반드시 필요하다”라고 밝혔다.피셔는 ICS 및 OT 보안을 위해 특화된 교육과 훈련에 대한 투자도 필수적이라고 언급했다. 그는 “ICS 제어기를 실시간으로 모니터링하는 인력이 제어 시스템 네트워크를 깊이 있게 이해할 수 있도록 해야 한다”라고 설명했다.또한 “ICS 환경에 대한 위협을 재평가하지 않는 기업은 점점 정교해지는 공격에 핵심 인프라를 무방비로 노출시키고 있는 셈”이라며 “이제는 기술 시스템 보호가 선택이 아니라, 운영 회복탄력성과 국가 안보를 위한 필수 요소가 됐다”라고 전했다[email protected]

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter of assurance to Apple officials that the company should act in accordance with Trump’s TikTok extension, according to a Bloomberg News report. President Donald Trump extended the divestiture deadline for U.S. operations for at least 75 days.Apple will keep ByteDance-owned TikTok on its App Store for at least 75 more days after receiving assurances from Attorney General Pam Bondi, according to a report from Bloomberg News.This comes after President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday to extend the TikTok ban deadline for the second time. TikTok will be banned in the U.S. unless China’s ByteDance sells its U.S. operations under a national security law signed by former President Joe Biden in April 2024.AG Bondi wrote in a letter to Apple that the company should act in accordance with Trump’s deadline extension and that it would not be penalized for hosting the platform, according to unnamed sources cited in the report.Apple did not respond to a request for comment.After TikTok went briefly offline for U.S. users in January following the initial ban deadline, it remained unavailable for download in the App Store until Feb. 13. Apple had reinstated TikTok to its app store after receiving a similar letter of assurance from Bondi.The extension comes days after Trump announced cumulative tariffs of 54% on China. Prior to the additional tariff rollout on April 2, the president said he could reduce duties on the country to help facilitate a deal for ByteDance to sell its U.S. operations of TikTok.“Maybe I’ll give them a little reduction in tariffs or something to get it done,” Trump said during a press conference in March. “TikTok is big, but every point in tariffs is worth more than TikTok.”WATCH: TikTok deal reportedly halted after China said it would reject it due to tariffs

British singer FKA Twigs canceled her appearance at Coachella in California later this week as the performer continues to face visa issues for her North American tour. FKA Twigs, whose legal name is Tahliah Barnett, said Sunday that she was devastated to tell fans she’d be pulling out of the famed music festival. She was set to perform on Friday, the night Lady Gaga will be headlining the main stage. “It pains me to say this because i am so excited to bring you a creation that i have poured my soul into and i believe is amongst my strongest work and i know this news impacts so many of you that have already made plans and spent money in order to see these shows,” she said on her social media. The singer said she was going to have to reschedule all of her North American commitments for April. This would have also included a performance at Axe Ceremonia festival in Mexico City, but the festival’s Sunday date was canceled.The update comes after FKA Twigs had to cancel last week’s performances in Chicago, New York, and Toronto. She said at the time she was informed her production team “did not fill out the correct paperwork in a timely manner for us to have our visas to come to the USA and perform.”She’s traveling across the United Kingdom and Europe for her latest album, “Eusexua,” which was released in January. In her post Sunday, FKA Twigs described this tour as being amongst her strongest work. “I promise that i am working to reschedule the affected dates as quickly as possible,” she wrote. “for headline shows, please refer to your point of purchase for details and refund information.”This article originally appeared on NBCNews.com.

CHENGDU, China, April 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Keymed Biosciences Inc. (HKEX: 02162) ("Keymed" or the "Company") today announced that the prestigious medical journal Nature Medicine has published the results from the Phase III trial of its independently developed IL-4Rα antibody stapokibart, for the treatment of moderate-to-severe seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). The study, led by Professor Luo Zhang of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, represents the world's first clinical report on an IL-4Rα-targeted biologic for SAR, underscoring Chinese scientists' pioneering role in allergic rhinitis innovation.The study demonstrated that stapokibart significantly alleviates clinical symptoms and improves quality of life in patients with moderate-to-severe SAR who remained inadequately controlled despite standard therapies. This breakthrough offers a transformative solution to a global health challenge, ushering in a new era of biologic treatments for allergic rhinitis and providing hope to hundreds of millions of patients worldwide. Innovative Mechanism Addresses Urgent Clinical NeedsAllergic rhinitis (AR), a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa, is triggered by environmental allergens in sensitized individuals. In recent years, its global prevalence has risen significantly. Despite standard therapies, over 50% of patients continue to experience inadequately controlled symptoms, a substantial unmet need that severely impacts quality of life and imposes a heavy socioeconomic burden, positioning AR as a critical public health challenge.The persistence and exacerbation of AR symptoms are primarily driven by amplified type 2 inflammatory cascades. Stapokibart, targeting the IL-4 receptor alpha subunit (IL-4Rα), dual-blocks both IL-4 and IL-13 signaling pathways. Through a multi-pronged approach—inhibiting T-cell activation and proliferation, suppressing B-cell activation and IgE synthesis, and reducing inflammatory cell infiltration—Stapokibart comprehensively attenuates allergic reactions, providing a novel therapeutic strategy for seasonal allergic rhinitis, and other type 2-mediated allergic diseases.The First and Only Approved IL-4Rα Antibody Globally with Demonstrated Efficacy and SafetyResults of this phase III trial demonstrated that stapokibart rapidly, significantly, and sustainably controlled both nasal and ocular symptoms in patients with moderate-to-severe SAR, while markedly improving quality of life ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

NSW Criminalizes LGBT Conversion Practices Authored by Naziya Alvi Rahman via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),From April 4, LGBT conversion practices are officially banned in New South Wales under the Conversion Practices Ban Act 2024.This picture taken on June 3, 2021 shows Danish toy brick maker Lego's "Everyone is Awesome" new set of rainbow-coloured figurines to celebrate the diversity of its fans and the LGBT community. Thomas Samson/AFP via Getty ImagesThe law makes it a criminal offence, punishable by up to five years in prison, for anyone who delivers or performs conversion practices that cause serious mental or physical harm.Taking someone out of NSW to undergo such practices elsewhere can also attract a maximum three-year jail term.Conversion practices include so-called “conversion therapy” and other actions aimed at changing or suppressing a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. These practices are based on the belief that LGBTQ+ people need to be “cured” or “fixed.”Civil Complaints and Education MeasuresThe law also introduces a civil complaints mechanism through Anti-Discrimination NSW.From April 4, 2025, complaints can be made about conversion practices occurring in the state. If appropriate, matters may be resolved through conciliation, or referred to the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal.Anti-Discrimination NSW will also run education sessions and distribute resources to inform the public about the law. These include free online tools and referrals to support services.While the law targets practices aimed at forcibly changing or suppressing identity, it does not ban general religious teaching or private conversations between parents and children.“This legislation is focused on protecting people from targeted, sustained efforts to change who they are,” the NSW government said.Last year, the Premier issued a formal apology to those convicted under now-defunct laws that once criminalised homosexual acts.In September, the NSW Government endorsed all 19 recommendations from the Special Commission of Inquiry into LGBT hate crimes. The inquiry highlighted significant failures in how past governments and police responded to the violent deaths of LGBT people.A new LGBT Advisory Council has also been created to help shape the state’s first Inclusion Strategy. The government also backed the amended Equality Bill, introduced by independent MP Alex Greenwich, which passed Parliament.Activists: “There Is Nothing to Fix”The law comes just three days after South Australia passed similar legislation.NSW joins Victoria and the ACT in banning LGBT conversion practices outright. Queensland has implemented a partial ban limited to health settings, while Western Australia has committed to introducing its own reforms.Attorney General Michael Daley said the law sends a clear message: “Everyone deserves to be respected for who they are. There is nothing ‘wrong’ with LGBT people. They do not need ‘fixing’ or to be ‘saved.’”Founder of Ambassadors and Bridge Builders International, Anthony Venn-Brown OAM, welcomed the move.“I grew up when being gay was a criminal offence and mental health professionals believed they could cure homosexuality,” he said.Opposition: Concerns About OverreachLyle Shelton, Family First’s lead Senate candidate for NSW, opposed the new laws, calling them an overreach into personal and religious freedoms.“No one wants to see anyone coerced or converted to anything. But these laws are not about that,” he said.“Trying to prevent a child from receiving puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or irreversible surgery could be labelled ‘conversion therapy’ under this law.“They could criminalise parents, counsellors, or medical professionals who caution children about the risks of LGBT gender fluid ideology.”He described the legislation as “another attack on religious people whose views align with science—that there are two genders and that true marriage is between a man and a woman.”He said the laws could empower activists to have “good people jailed.” Tyler DurdenSat, 04/05/2025 - 22:10

House Fiscal Conservatives Blast "Unserious And Disappointing" Senate GOP Budget Blueprint Hours after Senate Republicans approved their latest budget plan Saturday morning, at least three GOP deficit hawks in the House - the maximum number of R's Speaker Mike Johnson can lose - blasted the package over a lack of spending cuts."If the Senate’s ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ budget is put on the House floor, I will vote no," Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) posted to X on Saturday, adding "Failure is not an option. And the Senate’s budget is a path to failure."If the Senate’s “Jekyll and Hyde” budget is put on the House floor, I will vote no.In the classic ways of Washington, the Senate’s budget presents a fantastic top-line message – that we should return spending back to the pre-COVID trajectory (modified for higher interest, Medicare, and Social Security) of $6.5 Trillion, rather than the current trajectory of over $7 Trillion – but has ZERO enforcement to achieve it, and plenty of signals it is designed purposefully NOT to achieve it.The House Budget is seemingly more modest in its objectives – perhaps OVERLY modest – in laying out a floor of $200B in reductions in spending increases (not cuts). But that “floor” establishes important guardrails to force Congress to pump the brakes on runaway spending and to achieve critical reforms to badly broken Medicaid, food stamp, and welfare programs currently being abused to subsidize illegals, the able-bodied, and blue states.The America First agenda requires boldness from Congress, not timidity. President Trump’s leadership – and risk taking – requires the same from Republicans in Congress, not more of the same selfish vote-buying, big-spending pork that got us into this debt crisis. We can and must cut BOTH the statutory taxes Americans pay AND the inflation tax they increasingly pay because of Congressional failure.Failure is not an option. And the Senate’s budget is a path to failure. Instead, we should get busy drafting a reconciliation package that will work - that will ACTUALLY produce spending reductions that will, as a start, return to the pre-COVID spending path - and deliver on the promises we campaigned upon.Maryland Republican Rep. Andy Harris also chimed in, saying he "can’t support House passage of the Senate changes to our budget resolution until I see the actual spending and deficit reduction plans to enact President Trump’s America First agenda."Rep. Lloyd Smucker (R-PA) said he "certainly can't support it as written" Thursday night.We all agree: keep taxes low for individuals & small businesses, drive economic growth. But we must reduce the deficit as well.— Rep. Lloyd Smucker (@RepSmucker) April 3, 2025House Budget Chair Jodey Arrington (R-TX) called the plan "unserious and disappointing" Saturday morning, but didn't go so far as to explicitly say he would oppose it.As noted above, Johnson cannot lose more than three Republicans on a party-line vote with his 220-213 majority, which doesn't bode well considering that several other House Republicans have characterized the Senate's plan as fiscally irresponsible, and insist that any budget plan should at least be deficit-neutral, while any tax cuts should also be tied to tax cuts. The Senate's plan, however, essentially kicks the can down the road once again on these issues by providing different targets to critical committees in the House and Senate, Politico reports.For instance, while the Senate plan sets a modest $4 billion floor for spending reductions, the budget blueprint that House Republicans passed in February calls for $2 trillion in spending cuts.There are also significant differences in the tax portion of the plan. The House budget provides its tax writing committee $4.5 trillion for spending on tax cuts. Meanwhile, the Senate budget uses an accounting tactic that zeroes out the cost of extending trillions in expiring tax cuts. It allows for potentially up to $800 billion more in tax cuts than the House plan.In a Saturday letter to their members, Johnson and the other top three House GOP leaders said that approving the Senate budget would "allow us to finally begin the most important phase of this process: drafting the reconciliation bill that will deliver on President Trump’s agenda and our promises to the American people.""With the debt limit X-date approaching, border security resources diminishing, markets unsettled, and the largest tax increase on working families looming, time is of the essence," they wrote.The wildcard here is of course, President Trump, who has previously leaned on key holdouts to muscle through an earlier House budget vote. This week Trump demanded that "[e]very Republican, House and Senate, must UNIFY" behind the Senate plan.""Big business is not worried about the Tariffs, because they know they are here to stay, but they are focused on the BIG, BEAUTIFUL DEAL, which will SUPERCHARGE our Economy," he wrote on Friday, referring to the reconciliation bill.

Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard are going into the Basketball Hall of Fame later this year, not once but twice. And LeBron James and Chris Paul are part of the group that’s headed to the Hall as well, even before their playing careers end.Anthony and Howard were announced Saturday as members of the Class of 2025, as was the 2008 U.S. Olympic men’s basketball team that they played on — dubbed the “Redeem Team,” the one that captured gold at the Beijing Games and started a still-going run of five consecutive Olympic titles and counting for USA Basketball’s men’s program.Also selected for enshrinement: WNBA greats Sue Bird, Maya Moore and Sylvia Fowles, Chicago Bulls coach and two-time NCAA champion Billy Donovan, Miami Heat managing general partner Micky Arison and longtime NBA referee Danny Crawford.“I made it to the real basketball heaven,” Howard said. “It’s crazy.”Enshrinement weekend is Sept. 5-6 at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut, and the Hall of Fame in Springfield, Massachusetts.“When the call comes and in my case, I saw Springfield on the phone,” Anthony said on the televised announcement. “You know what time it is Springfield is on the phone. You know who it is. You get the phone call and you hear, ‘You’re in.’ And I think for me, it was a burden off of my shoulders.”Donovan won back-to-back titles as a college coach with Florida. Arison oversaw Miami’s path to NBA titles in 2006, 2012 and 2013. Crawford worked NBA games for 32 seasons and was picked to work the NBA Finals in 23 of those years.“For some, this is an individual honor,” Arison said. “But for me, this speaks to what our entire Heat family — players, coaches, staff and fans — have built together.”Combined, the five players selected as individuals – Bird, Moore, Fowles, Howard and Anthony – were part of 11 WNBA or NBA championship teams, won 15 Olympic gold medals, made 37 All-NBA or All-WNBA appearances and were named as All-Stars 45 times in their careers. “Surreal,” Bird said of her selection. “I don’t think there’s any way to really wrap your head around it.”Added Fowles: “I don’t think (any) one of us go into this thinking that we’re going to be Hall of Famers. You just do your job ... and when it’s all said and done, the job is complete and here we are.”The Redeem Team’s selection means that Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Jason Kidd and Kobe Bryant — already enshrined as Hall of Famers — essentially now go in for a second time. James and Paul, who are obviously both locks to get into the Hall after they retire, also played for that Olympic team, as did Anthony, Howard, Michael Redd, Carlos Boozer, Deron Williams and Tayshaun Prince.That team’s managing director was Jerry Colangelo, who now chairs the Hall of Fame.MORE BASKETBALL COVERAGEBoston Celtics20 hours agoCeltics break Warriors' single-season NBA record for 3-pointers madeNBAApr 3Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo records NBA's first 35-17-20 game in win vs. 76ersNBAMar 24When does the 2025 NBA Play-In Tournament start? Here's how it works“We developed a set of standards where all the guys lived by those standards,” said former Duke coach and 2001 Hall of Fame inductee Mike Krzyzewski, who coached that 2008 Olympic team. “They were the best group of guys. I wish like crazy that Kobe was here. He was really the key guy, I think. As many great players as we had at that point, he was the greatest and everyone looked up to him.”Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven others were killed in a 2020 helicopter crash. Bryant was enshrined posthumously into the Hall later that year.The Redeem Team had that moniker because it was the team tasked with restoring USA Basketball’s place atop the world stage, after the 2004 Olympic team only managed a bronze medal at the Athens Games. The Redeem Team went 8-0 in Beijing, winning those games by an average of 27.9 points.“USA Basketball is thrilled to see the 2008 U.S. Men’s Olympic Team elected to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame,” USA Basketball CEO Jim Tooley said. “The Redeem Team’s celebrated run in Beijing marks a pivotal moment in U.S. men’s Olympic basketball history and has propelled us to five straight gold medals.“Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard, members of that team and individual inductees, are two of the many legends in this Class who have contributed to our organization’s success over the last 20-plus years, including Sue Bird, Billy Donovan, Maya Moore and Sylvia Fowles,” Tooley added.UConn’s women’s program already had coach Geno Auriemma, Swin Cash (enshrined as a player) and Rebecca Lobo (enshrined as a contributor) in the Hall of Fame, and Bird and Moore going in together will obviously add to what’s always a huge weekend in New England.“They’re hall of famers for me, they’re hall of famers for their family, they’re hall of famers for everybody — they’re even hall of famers for UConn haters,” Auriemma said. “That’s one thing they can all agree on.”

Is The Stock Market Warning Of A Recession? Authored by Lance Roberts via RealInvestmentAdvice.com,A Wall Street axiom states that the stock markets lead the economy by about six months. While not a perfect predictor, the stock market reacts to investor expectations about future corporate earnings, economic activity, interest rates, and inflation. When sentiment shifts due to anticipated weakness in any of these areas, equity prices often decline, reflecting a reassessment of future growth.This makes sense, given that investors are parsing earnings data and adjusting expectations that lagging economic data may not reflect as of yet. In “Failure At The 200-DMA,“ we noted that we focus on earnings because earnings and forward estimates reflect changes in the stock market’s risk assessment of all other events. To wit:“Investors often get lost in the media headlines about rising recession risks, debts, deficits, or valuations. While those risks are important, they are terrible for predicting where markets will likely move next. Furthermore, if or when those risks become an issue, the market will begin to reprice for a reduction in forward earnings.“Historically, significant market downturns have preceded nearly every major U.S. recession. For instance, in early 2000, the peak in the S&P 500 was months before the official recognition in 2001. In the lead-up to the 2008 financial crisis, markets began declining in late 2007. However, even though the recession officially began in December of that year, the declaration was not until December 2008. The COVID-19 crash in early 2020 was another example, with markets collapsing in anticipation of widespread economic shutdowns—well before the economic data caught up.“The chart below shows the S&P 500 with two dots. The blue dots are when the recession started. The yellow triangle is when the NBER dated the start of the recession. In 9 of 10 instances, the S&P 500 peaked and turned lower before the recognition of a recession.“ – Failure At The 200-DMAHowever, it’s important to distinguish between normal market corrections and actual recession signals.Not Every Correction Is A WarningWhile entirely arbitrary, the market has long defined a correction as a decline of 10% or more from recent highs. Such corrections are common and occur about once a year.During bullish years, corrections happen more often than you think. However, when corrections occur, it is not uncommon to see concerns about a “bear market” rise. However, historically speaking, the stock market increases about 73% of the time. The other 27% of the time, market corrections reverse the excesses of the previous advance.” – Bull Markets Often Have CorrectionsThe historical median correction is 10%, with a median gain of 13%. Given the frequency of 10% corrections, not every pullback indicated the onset of a recession. However, sometimes they are so we must not dismiss corrections entirely.Corrections in the stock market can occur due to many short-term factors, such as geopolitical tensions, overvaluation, or shifts in investor sentiment. We are in no short supply of those factors. Today, investors focus on the impact of tariffs, sticky inflation, and elevated valuations. As expected, the stock market correction has already led to a reversal in both sentiment and valuations since valuations are a function of sentiment.However, those factors are temporary and not necessarily linked to deeper economic issues. In contrast, if a correction deepens into a bear market, as the media defines it, a decline of 20% or more, and is accompanied by deteriorating economic fundamentals, the risk of a recession becomes more pronounced.A Reversion To RealityAs discussed in “Stock Markets Are Detached From Everything,” market corrections eventually revert prices to underlying economic fundamentals.“While stock prices can deviate from immediate activity, reversions to actual economic growth eventually occur. Such is because corporate earnings are a function of consumptive spending, corporate investments, imports, and exports. The market disconnect from underlying economic activity is due to psychology. Such is particularly the case over the last decade, as successive rounds of monetary interventions led investors to believe ‘this time is different.’”While not precise, a correlation between the stock market and economic activity does remain. For example, in 2000 and again in 2008, corporate earnings contracted by 54% and 88%, respectively, as economic growth declined. Such was despite calls for never-ending earnings growth before both previous contractions. As earnings disappointed, stock prices adjusted by nearly 50% to realign valuations with weaker-than-expected current earnings and slower future earnings growth. However, both events were tied to other exogenous factors (Enron and Lehman failures) that exacerbated the decline.Why is this important? The chart below notes that when markets and earnings significantly deviate from the long-term growth trend of the economy, they revert to the economy—not the other way around. However, not every reversion is linked to a recession.As investors, it is crucial to understand that not every stock market correction is a recession warning. However, sometimes they are. The question is what indicators can warn us if the current market correction is “just a correction or a recession warning.”What To WatchThere is no guaranteed method of determining whether a correction is just a correction or a warning of a recession. Much like Sherlock Holmes, we must follow a trail of clues and make assessments based on the data at hand. Several economic and technical indicators can help confirm whether a market downturn signals a recession.Economic WarningsWhen it comes to economic data, investors must realize that much of the data runs with a significant lag, but some have a high correlation to economic outcomes. For example, inverted yield curves, falling leading economic indicators (LEI), weakening manufacturing and service-sector PMIs, declining corporate earnings guidance, and widening credit spreads are some of the best. When these factors align with a significant market decline, it often points to an economy on the verge of contraction.There are currently very few economic signals warning of an economic contraction. For example, our Economic Output Composite Index, which comprises more than 100 different data points, including the ISM surveys and Leading Economic Indicators (LEI), is currently in expansionary territory.Furthermore, if we weigh the ISM Manufacturing and Services Indices to the compensation of the economy, there is no current recessionary warning.However, the most crucial indicator we watch is credit spreads. Credit spreads are the market’s early warning indicators if a correction will morph into a recessionary bear market. To wit:“Credit spreads are critical to understanding market sentiment and predicting potential stock market downturns. A credit spread refers to the difference in yield between two bonds of similar maturity but different credit quality. This comparison often involves Treasury bonds (considered risk-free) and corporate bonds (which carry default risk). By observing these spreads, investors can gauge risk appetite in financial markets. Such helps investors identify stress points that often precede stock market corrections.”The chart below shows the spread between corporate “junk” bonds (BB), often referred to as “high yield,” and the “risk-free” rate of U.S. Treasury bonds. While the yield spreads have ticked up modestly, this is commensurate with a market correction, not a recessionary warning.However, as noted, all this data runs with a lag, and today’s readings can change tomorrow. This is why investors also need to pay attention to the technical warnings.Technical WarningsSeveral technical indicators warn that the current correction has the potential for something more. As shown, the market has broken below long-term moving averages, reduced market breadth (fewer stocks participating in rallies), and spikes in volatility (as measured by the VIX) often appear before recessions. Those conditions have been met technically, but the economic data does not confirm them —at least not yet.However, while investor sentiment has declined sharply, cash holdings remain very low. This would likely not be the case if market participants braced for tougher economic times, as we saw in 2000 and 2008.ConclusionThe stock market’s value as a recession indicator lies in its ability to reflect future expectations. Those future expectations will be reflected in Wall Street’s expectations of future earnings, which are derived from economic activity.“Looking at forward estimates, while there has been a minor cooling in the previous exuberance, analysts still expect a 16% annualized growth rate in earnings into next year. Unless those estimates begin to reverse sharply, it is unlikely that the current correction will devolve into a deeper corrective cycle.”Yes, the markets are occasionally prone to false alarms or overreactions. However, the stock market does respond faster than lagging economic data, which is often revised long after the fact. Investors who understand the relationship between market movements and broader economic trends are better positioned to manage risk and make informed decisions.Rather than react emotionally to every market dip, investors should evaluate whether the sell-off is driven by fundamental weakness or short-term noise. When a broad market decline is accompanied by deteriorating earnings, slowing growth, and weakening economic indicators, the likelihood of a recession increases. In such cases, adopting a more defensive investment strategy, diversifying across asset classes, and maintaining a long-term perspective can help weather economic downturns and preserve capital.

Witnesses Tell House Task Force To Reinvestigate JFK Assassination Authored by Travis Gillmore via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),WASHINGTON—A panel of expert witnesses that included renowned filmmaker Oliver Stone told the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform’s Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets on April 1 that more work is needed to uncover the truth about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.Filmmaker Oliver Stone testifies before the House Oversight Committee at the U.S. Capitol on April 1, 2025. Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images“Let us see past the lies, and let us hear what happened,” Stone told the task force. “The truth is the greatest treasure a Socratic soul can attain in this lifetime.”The three-time Academy Award-winning director released a movie titled “JFK” in 1991 and followed that with a documentary in 2021 called “JFK: Revisited.”He questioned the role played by the CIA, saying it “operates arrogantly outside our laws.”A litany of motives for removing Kennedy existed at the time, including those related to expanding the Vietnam War and securing power for the military-industrial complex, among others, according to the director.“He was changing things, changing too many things too fast. It was a major problem for some, and he was going to win a second election,” Stone told The Epoch Times after the hearing. “And he had a brother, a younger brother, and there was fear of a dynasty. They were terrified of that possibility.”Expressing doubt about the Warren Commission’s findings in 1964, which fingered Lee Harvey Oswald as a lone gunman responsible for Kennedy’s murder, he asked the committee to reopen an investigation into the incident.Some lawmakers on the dais acknowledged a need to follow up on questions regarding the chain of custody of evidence and discrepancies in testimony and records related to the crime, saying the lack of transparency over nearly 62 years has eroded trust in government.“For over six decades, questions have lingered, shrouded in secrecy and speculation,” task force chairwoman Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) said during opening remarks. “What has been alarming to me is the amount of stonewalling the federal government put forth to hide this information from the American people.”Chairwoman Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) questions witnesses at the House Oversight Committee for Government Reform Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets hearing regarding the JFK files at the U.S. Capitol on April 1, 2025. Travis Gillmore/The Epoch TimesShe said revelations in the approximately 80,000 pages of documents that were declassified by President Donald Trump on March 18 are “staggering” and raise “serious concerns.”Task force members in both parties denounced what they called overclassification and called for increased transparency from the government.“This is a known fact that we all should agree on. Federal agencies, obviously, have in the past obscured information and key facts from the public for too long,” Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) said during the hearing. “The CIA and [FBI], especially in this period of time, were deeply flawed institutions.”Others on the panel, however, including Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), used their allotted time to criticize the sitting president for what she described as a rush to release classified material that could result in the release of private information, such as Social Security numbers.One witness called to testify, Jefferson Morley—an author and independent journalist who has researched the JFK assassination for 30 years and told the commission that he is a “liberal Democrat”—dismissed the line of inquiry.Author and researcher Jefferson Morley testifies to the House Oversight Committee for Government Reform task force on the declassification of federal secrets during a hearing regarding the JFK files at the Capitol in Washington on April 1, 2025. Travis Gillmore/The Epoch TimesHe said some of the new files show that James Angleton, longtime counterintelligence chief for the CIA; Richard Helms, who was the director of the CIA; and agency liaison to Congress George Joannides all lied under oath about the killing.“Obstructing Congress cannot be considered evidence of incompetence,” Morley said. “Three false statements by top CIA officers about Kennedy’s accused killer, that is a pattern. It’s a pattern of misconduct; it’s a pattern of malfeasance.”Author James DiEugenio highlighted a document written by Arthur Schlesinger—special assistant to Kennedy—and long redacted by the CIA, as of paramount importance in understanding the context of the murder, as it reveals Kennedy’s intention to reorganize the agency and minimize its authority.He called for a new investigation, warning that “secrecy is the enemy of democracy.”“I really hope that people will learn from the past and learn from experiences,” DiEugenio told the task force. “The CIA and the FBI should not have the last word on JFK’s murder. You should.” Tyler DurdenFri, 04/04/2025 - 22:35

U.S. Rolls Out New Romantic Restrictions For Gov't Workers In China To Prevent CCP Honey Traps Sexual entrapment—often called "honey trapping"— has been a common espionage tactic, and intelligence agencies worldwide use it to extract information, compromise targets, and/or gain leverage through blackmail. New policies are being rolled out in Washington that prevent U.S. government personnel with security clearances in China from having romantic or sexual relationships with Chinese citizens, according to an AP report. This measure prevents Chinese Communist Party spies from honey-trapping U.S. diplomats. The ban also extends to family members and contractors. Here's more from AP News:Four people with direct knowledge of the matter told the AP about the policy, which was put into effect by departing U.S. Ambassador Nicholas Burns in January shortly before he left China. The people would speak only on condition of anonymity to discuss details of a confidential new directive.Though some U.S. agencies already had strict rules on such relationships, a blanket "non-fraternization" policy, as it is known, has been unheard of publicly since the Cold War. It's not uncommon for American diplomats in other countries to date locals and even marry them.The ban underscores the increasing threat Washington sees from honeypotting CCP spies targeting U.S. government diplomats and workers. Both countries remain locked in a global superpower race spanning military, AI, trade, and space. President Trump's "Liberation Day" of new tariffs on China has exacerbated tensions. Some risks of modern honey traps include: Cyber-espionage: fake personas on dating apps and social media Hidden surveillance: hotel room setups to record compromising situations Deep covers: long-term embedded agents posing as business partners or romantic interestsLet's rewind history back to 2009. Britain's MI5 circulated a 14-page intelligence briefing titled "The Threat from Chinese Espionage" to hundreds of banks, corporations, and financial institutions. The document warned about a Chinese intelligence campaign to blackmail Western businesspeople through sexual entanglements. It explicitly warned that Chinese spies were seeking to establish "long-term relationships" and had been known to "exploit vulnerabilities such as sexual relationships... to pressure individuals into cooperating with them."How can anyone forget U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) and his suspected relations with the Chinese spy "Fang Fang"?🚨 #BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Eric Swalwell PANICS when I ask about his Chinese spy girlfriend Fang Fang, and whether that’s a bigger “national security threat” than Elon MuskI sat next to a drunk Swalwell at dinner for 90 minutes.

Your Discomfort Means It's Working Submitted by QTR's Fringe FinanceIt has been one whole day since President Trump implemented his tariff agenda.With the amount of squirming and outright panic in the news media, markets, and on social media, you’d think we were 50 years into a 100-year bout of famine, plague, depression, and pestilence.Let’s all just gather our heads for a second.At a very basic psychological level, people are opposed to change. It doesn’t matter whether it’s changing their cable provider or taking a detour in traffic. Extrapolating from this, people are really opposed to bigger, more consequential change.Extrapolating from this, in the world of finance, I have consistently argued that market participants have been falsely conditioned by our monetary and fiscal policy in this country to always expect comfort and never expect interruptions from the market moving higher, or the quality of life status quo that we believe we are entitled to here in the United States to suffer.This concept was the basis for my article explaining why I thought the next market crash would “break the brains” of market participants.Now let’s zoom out and think about what President Trump is trying to accomplish with his tariff agenda. He is essentially saying that the status quo in the United States isn’t working and large changes need to be implemented—changes that will shock the global economy—to remedy the issue.“Who is the status quo not working for?” some of you will ask me from your Porsche, driving down PCH, or from your desk overseeing your millions in the market.If I had to venture a guess, I’d say it’s not working for people in towns like this:Or people whose grandparents used to work at places like this:And the status quo definitely isn’t working for the bottom 50% of Americans here, represented by the yellow section that is so small you have to zoom in to see it:Billionaires (other than Trump, it seems) have a difficult time answering questions like “What happens when we run out of middle American towns to gut?” and “How has your quality of life been negatively impacted by monetary policy over the last 20 years?”The reason they can’t answer these questions is because they don’t have any idea. Monetary policy helps them accrue more wealth and power, and they don’t live in middle America. But if you take a trip to a place like Flint, Michigan, or Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the answers to these questions become a lot clearer.Abandoned Bethlehem Steel plantThe direction the country was heading in monetarily and fiscally was simply unsustainable. Deficits too big. Debt skyrocketing against GDP. Wealth gap accelerating. Drug and alcohol addiction ravaging cities.We were walking a path that decimated the lives and the purchasing power of the people who need it most and took American jobs away from people who needed them the most.Worse off, it made the United States dependent on adversaries like China to simply go about our day-to-day. When global supply chains were cut off during COVID, it was obvious that our quality of life was 100% dependent on imported goods—everything from consumer electronics to clothing to the ingredients used in pharmaceuticals.Recalibrating the country away from being dependent on adversarial nations is not a simple and inconsequential thing to do. On the contrary, it’s about as consequential of a decision as we can possibly make, alongside of trying to get our fiscal house as a nation in order.Consequential means change. Change means discomfort. Discomfort requires courage. On a positive note, to me, it seems like the first time our government has taken more than a 10-day outlook on the future of our nation.Time and time again, I have complained on this blog that monetary and fiscal policy in this country are run like an infant in a candy store. We do whatever we want, spend whatever we want, throw a tantrum when we don’t get what we want, barely think about the decisions we make, and sacrifice and mortgage anything not nailed down to ensure that our quality of life as it exists today can continue for just one more day (speaking of which, have we audited Fort Knox yet?).The nearsightedness of our policymaking in this country has been breathtaking.Trump’s tariff agenda scratches to a halt the record of complacency that’s been playing over the sound system of the United States for the last 50 years. It sends a signal to the world that things aren’t OK the way they’re going and, more importantly, it makes the decision to proactively arrest the problem in its tracks before it reaches a terminus on its own. If the country got into such a precarious position that we had to react to the problem instead of being proactive, we would lose any and all leverage we’d have to make deals to try to recalibrate our position.🔥 50% OFF FOR LIFE: Using this coupon entitles you to 50% off an annual subscription to Fringe Finance for life: Get 50% off foreverBeing proactive about the issue puts us in a position of strength. Yes, even when your precious Apple stock is down 7%.There are going to be some consequences. Trump knew that in advance. Prices may go up near term, supply of goods may dwindle going forward, and we may go into a recession. But recessions can also create investment opportunities for people that have been priced out of the market for the last 20 years.And the people bearing the brunt of the negatives of this policy are the same people who disproportionately benefited from the previous policies. The top 1% who got infinitely richer thanks to quantitative easing and now have to go through the horrifying exercise of watching their multimillion-dollar portfolio fall a little bit are going to take larger dollar and quality-of-life hits from this policy than the lower middle class, who likely have very little invested and who probably won’t even notice a difference in quality of life because of the squalor they are already living in.And as I said at the beginning of the article, it has been one day. One goddamn day.The shock of this event will eventually begin to wear off, and we will achieve a new level of homeostasis—just maybe with financial asset prices lower. Future volatility may come from a cascading deleveraging in the financial world, and I don’t see this as a negative either. Does Fartcoin still have a bid? Yes? Well then, all the excess that should have been carried out has not been carried out yet. And who knows—maybe at about the same time the lower and middle class starts to get their financial footing, stocks will actually return to somewhat of a reasonable valuation so that John Q. Public can get a chance to take a bite of the apple.And lest we forget, before you piss yourself any further, many of these consequences are based on the assumption that these tariffs are going to be in place for a long time. Given how quickly Trump has shifted his stance on trade with other countries after negotiating, I don’t really find it probable these tariffs will stay in place for years, as many people are acting like.Some people want to argue that the policy isn’t a net positive—it’s just generating other trade-offs that “aren’t worth it”. Even if on net balance that’s the case, I still think it’s worth it as a method of breaking the chains of the directional status quo in this country. If we have to rearrange the furniture to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. and give people in middle America something to do other than abuse fentanyl smuggled into our country, I’m for it. Bring manufacturing, not drugs, to Kensington. I’m ready to buy American and I know I’m not alone.This sea change reverses the gears of a machine that has been in motion for decades. The discomfort in the market and in media means that it’s working. And the idea that we’re doing it proactively is a positive, not a negative.The very same discomfort you feel that makes you want to cave in and just say tariffs are a bad idea is the same discomfort many foreign leaders will feel. Trump won’t be the only leader under pressure to try to resolve this issue, and so it then becomes a test of wills.America was a country founded by rugged individuals, but there’s nothing rugged about throwing a fit because your NASDAQ investment, up 150% over the last 5 years, is down 5% today — especially when the “problem” likely will be resolved to some degree within a matter of weeks, if not months.For the (strongly) opposing view, which I always suggest you consider, you can read this piece by my friend Anton Wahlman, with whom I usually agree on most things finance and politics.QTR’s Disclaimer: Please read my full legal disclaimer on my About page here.

Federal prosecutors on Friday added two charges to Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ indictment and said they expect four accusers to testify against him, expanding on allegations that the jailed hip-hop mogul engaged in sex trafficking with multiple women and as recently as last year.A superseding indictment accuses Combs of using force, fraud, or coercion to compel a woman to engage in commercial sex acts from at least 2021 to 2024.The indictment, returned by a federal grand jury in Manhattan, also alleges Combs was involved in transporting the woman — identified only as “Victim-2” — and other people, including commercial sex workers, to engage in prostitution during the same time frame.The new charges are in addition to racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges filed against Combs when he was arrested in September. They increase the total number of charges against him from three to five.In a court filing, federal prosecutors said the racketeering conspiracy charge involves allegations that Combs sex trafficked three victims and forced a fourth, one of his employees, into sexual activity with him.In the filing, which was heavily redacted, prosecutors said three of the four accusers who are expected to testify have asked that their identities not be revealed to the press or the public and that they instead be referred to by at trial using only pseudonyms.The accuser referred to as “Victim-1” in Combs’ charging documents is prepared to testify under her own name, prosecutors said.Sean "Diddy" CombsMar 20Sean ‘Diddy' Combs shocks with gray hair and beard in courtMusic & MusiciansFeb 21Sean ‘Diddy' Combs' lawyer steps down ahead of sex trafficking caseCelebrity NewsMar 3Jay-Z files a defamation lawsuit against the ‘Jane Doe' who accused him of rapeCombs, 55, is scheduled to stand trial May 5. He remains locked up at a federal jail in Brooklyn. A message seeking comment on the new charges was left with his representatives.Friday’s superseding indictment is the third filed against Combs.In the first, filed in January, federal prosecutors disclosed that their case involved at least three women whom they said Combs forced to engage in commercial sex acts. They also alleged Combs showed a firearm to a female victim during a kidnapping and once dangled a woman over an apartment balcony.Combs’ January indictment didn’t include additional charges but modified some details of the existing ones, including adding four years to the alleged racketeering conspiracy. Prosecutors now say it started in 2004, not 2008 as the original indictment had alleged. A superseding indictment in March contained minimal changes.Combs denies committing any crimes and has pleaded not guilty to the first set of charges, which allege that he coerced and abused women for years with help from a network of associates and employees while silencing victims through blackmail and violence, including kidnapping, arson and physical beatings.His arraignment on the new charges has not been scheduled. Prosecutors asked Friday that it be held at his final pretrial conference on April 25.Federal prosecutors allege the “I’ll Be Missing You” singer and Bad Boy Records founder used his “power and prestige” as a music star to induce female victims into drugged-up, elaborately produced sexual performances with male sex workers in events dubbed “Freak Offs.”Central to the case is a March 2016 video showing Combs hitting and kicking his then-girlfriend, R&B singer Cassie, in a Los Angeles hotel hallway. Prosecutors contend the assault happened during a “Freak Off.” Combs lawyers argue the footage was nothing more than a “glimpse into a complex but decade-long consensual relationship” between the two.Combs’ lawyers contend the case should never have been brought and are fighting to dismiss a charge involving allegations he transported a male escort across state lines.“The government has concocted a criminal case based primarily on allegations that Mr. Combs and two of his longtime girlfriends sometimes brought a third party — a male escort — into their sexual relationship,” Combs lawyer Alexandra A.E. Shapiro wrote in a February court filing.“Each of the three charges in the case are premised on the theory that this type of sexual activity is a federal crime,” Shapiro added.

South Korea’s Constitutional Court permanently removed President Yoon Suk Yeol from office on Friday, making him the country’s second president in Korean history to leave office through impeachment. Eight justices of the Constitutional Court unanimously voted to unseat Yoon for violating "the constitutional order” in his declaration of martial law on Dec. 3, Acting Chief Justice Moon Hyung-bae said in a ruling nationally televised live.Moon added that President Yoon violated his duty as the nation’s commander-in-chief when he sent troops to the National Assembly.The Parliament passed an impeachment motion in mid-December, accusing Yoon of violating the constitution and other laws by declaring martial law without justifiable reasons, suppressing assembly activities, attempting to detain politicians and undermining peace across the country.Following the ruling, Yoon was immediately ousted from office, becoming the second president in Korean history to leave office through impeachment, after former President Park Geun-hye in 2017. By law, the country must elect a new president within 60 days, which is by June 3. The country's financial markets recouped earlier losses on Friday after the verdict. The main Kospi index, which fell nearly 2% at its opening, traded down 0.7% after the court's decision. The Korean won has gained strength against the US dollar, trading 1,440.30 on Friday morning versus 1,452.20 on Thursday. SOCIAL UNREST AND POLITICAL TURMOIL The ruling comes 111 days after Korea’s Parliament impeached Yoon on Dec. 14, marking the longest impeachment process of a Korean president by the court. It took 91 days for former President Park to be permanently removed from office after the parliament’s decision.Domestic divides have deepened during the longer-than-expected deliberation process, said experts, forecasting the Korean society would navigate choppy waters for a while after Friday’s ruling. Yoon’s failed attempt to impose martial law angered millions of Koreans, with tens of thousands of people protesting in front of the National Assembly and across the country, calling for a Constitutional Court ruling against him as early as possible.Yoon’s loyalists have also taken to the streets in the past four months, demanding the reinstatement of Yoon’s powers. Following Friday's court decision, Han Duck-soo, the country's acting president and prime minister, will remain in office in the interim after returning to office in late March after the same court overturned Han’s impeachment. IT IS NOT OVER YETFriday’s ruling is, however, not the end of Yoon’s legal troubles. When the National Assembly passed the impeachment motion against Yoon in mid-December, lawmakers accused him of “betraying the public trust and abusing his constitutional authority to declare martial law, mobilizing government, military and police forces for an armed insurrection.” In January, Yoon became the country’s first sitting president to be arrested on rebellion charges connected to his imposition of martial law. He was released in early March but still faces criminal trials for the insurrection charges. By Sookyung Seo and In-soo [email protected] Nicholson-Breen edited this article.

Thailand’s tourism industry is expected to be affected by the March earthquake in nearby Myanmar, which resulted in the collapse of a Bangkok building under construction. Officials and tourism operators are rushing to calm travelers’ concerns about the structural integrity of Thai architecture. The event comes several months after Chinese travelers’ fear of traveling to Thailand crescendoed, following the kidnapping of actor Wang Xing in January. The Tourism Authority of Thailand is expecting that country’s upcoming Songkran festival will generate more tourism revenue than it did last year, despite projections that the March 28 earthquake has dampened tourist arrivals to the kingdom.The 7.7-magnitude earthquake, which epicentered in neighboring Myanmar, caused a building under construction near Bangkok’s famous Chatuchak market to collapse, raising questions about the safety of Thailand’s high-rise architecture.Still, Thailand’s tourism authority, in a press release published Thursday, said that the multi-day festival event in mid-April — the country’s biggest — will generate 26.5 billion Thai baht ($763 million) in tourism revenue, an increase of 8% year on year.Of that, an estimated 7.3 billion baht will come from some 476,000 international arrivals, according to the release.Thailand’s tourism ministry also doubled down on its 2025 foreign arrival forecast, with some 38 million visitors expected to arrive this year, according to Reuters.The country’s minister of tourism and sports said that while more than 1,000 hotel rooms were canceled in the immediate aftermath of the quake, the impact of the natural disaster on tourism is expected to be short term in nature, according to the report.Read moreChinese travelers cancel Lunar New Year trips to Thailand over safety concernsHowever, the Thai Hotels Association said it expects the earthquake will affect “the tourism atmosphere” during Songkran Festival 2025, according to a Google translation of a local media report that the association linked to on its Facebook page. The event, which is marked by joyous splashing of water in streets across the country, may be “even more desolate than in the past two years,” according to the report, which stated that the association is expecting a drop of at least 10%-15% in tourism income in the two weeks following the quake, before returning to normal some two weeks after that.“The collapse of a building in Chatuchak area has gone viral online, raising questions about safety in Thailand. Therefore, it is very important to urgently build confidence among tourists during this year’s Songkran Festival,” the report said.Rush to assuage concernsIn the immediate aftermath of the earthquake, Thai officials rushed to assuage tourist concerns.In a post-earthquake joint statement made by Thailand’s real estate and financial sectors, the chairman of the non-profit Federation of Thai Industries, Kriengkrai Thiennukul, said “Thailand remains a safe tourism destination, with government officials maintaining vigilant monitoring of conditions, conducting comprehensive building safety inspections, and providing support to those affected by the earthquake.”In the same statement, the president of the regulatory Council of Engineers Thailand said “All examined structures demonstrate earthquake resistance as they were designed according to current seismic engineering standards.”Reuters | Soe Zeya TunLebua’s rooftop Sky Bar, which was featured in the film “The Hangover 2,” sits on the 64th floor of Bangkok’s State Tower.Still, some hotels reached out directly to guests and staff to calm concerns about the integrity of their buildings. Narawadee Bualert, president and CEO of Lebua Hotels & Resorts, issued a statement that said its location in Bangkok’s State Tower was inspected and “engineers confirmed that the earthquake had no impact on the structural integrity of the building.”“Starting today, our website will be updated daily with real-time safety updates ... You’ll also find engineering reports, historical construction details, and visual documentation showing how Lebua was originally built to withstand both wind loads and seismic activity,” she wrote.Thailand has been trying to allay worries from Chinese travelers for years — but for a different reason. A fictional 2023 Chinese blockbuster film “No More Bets” depicted a Chinese couple lured to Southeast Asia by human traffickers — a fictional plot line which mirrored real life when the actor Wang Xing was kidnapped in Thailand in January.Staying the courseSingaporean Morgan Awyong was in a restaurant in Bangkok’s Chinatown district when the earthquake struck.“The water in the cups were moving, and the ceiling lights were all swaying,” he said. “Outside ... birds were flying off, dogs were barking, and one by one, the neighborhood alarms came on.”Office buildings and stores closed down, as did his hotel, to conduct checks of the building, he said. He added that he got a foot massage and returned to his hotel when it reopened.Read moreFear is driving Chinese travelers away from two of Asia’s most popular destinationsHe said friends he was traveling with “didn’t change their plans at all, especially when most of the services had resumed the next day.”Thailand’s hospitality industry is hoping others follow suit, as the country basks in the attention and bookings spurred by season 3 of HBO’s hit show “The White Lotus,” filmed mainly in Koh Samui.The country is also expected to draw more visitors this year following the legalization of same-sex marriage in January, which is set to establish the country as regional destination wedding locale for gay couples.In 2024, the country welcomed around 35 million international tourists — some 5 million below 2019’s numbers, according to the World Bank. — CNBC’s Bella Stoddart contributed to this report.

Trump's Pardon Only Covers Defendants' Jan. 6-Related Crimes: Appeals Court Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,President Donald Trump’s pardon for people convicted of charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol does not extend to crimes “only connected to January 6 by the happenstance that it was uncovered during investigation of the unrelated January 6 offenses,” a federal appeals court ruled on April 2.A divided panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld a lower court ruling that rejected arguments from Dan Wilson, a Jan. 6 defendant who said that Trump’s relief should cover firearm convictions that stemmed from a search conducted as part of the probe into his actions on Jan. 6, 2021.Trump on Jan. 20, when he took office for his second term, pardoned people for crimes “relating to the events at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.”“That language plainly applies to related offenses,” Circuit Judges Cornelia T.L. Pillard and Gregory G. Katsas said on Wednesday, in denying Wilson’s motion for release pending appeal.Circuit Judge Neomi Rao, the third judge on the panel, dissented.“Wilson’s appeal presents exceptional circumstances. He raises a novel question implicating the scope of the pardon power, which is vested exclusively in the President,” Rao said.She noted that Trump issued the pardon but tasked the attorney general with administering and effectuating it by issuing certificates to relevant people. The U.S. Department of Justice has said in court filings that the pardon does cover Wilson’s firearm convictions.“Wilson’s certificate merely repeats the language of the blanket pardon and does not specifically list his firearm convictions,” Rao said. “But nothing seems to preclude a new certificate from being issued that clarifies the scope of Wilson’s pardon. Because it is unlikely that the issuance of a certificate of pardon is judicially reviewable, there is at least a ’substantial question' whether we should defer to the Department of Justice when it claims the certificate it has issued applies to Wilson’s firearms convictions.”The majority said in response that they were reviewing the scope of the pardon, not its validity.“The pardon does not cover offenses wholly independent of events at the Capitol on January 6, even if uncovered during investigation of January 6 offenses,” they said.“What matters is the relationship between the offenses. Wilson’s Kentucky firearm offenses are not ‘offenses related to events that occurred’ at the Capitol on January 6. They occurred at a different time and place, and the elements of these offenses—possession of an unlicensed firearm and the possession of firearms by a prohibited person—bear no relationship to conduct that occurred at the Capitol on January 6. Thus, by the plain terms of the Pardon, they are not covered.”George Pallas, an attorney representing Wilson, told The Epoch Times in an email that “Illegal gang members from El Salvador have better luck than J6ers do in the DC courts.” He was referring to recent rulings blocking the Trump administration from deporting Tren de Aragua members and suspected members under Trump’s Alien Enemies Act declaration.Wilson had been released shortly after Trump signed the proclamation, but Department of Justice officials later said he should have been kept in custody because the firearms crimes were not covered by Trump’s pardon.Several weeks later, officials told the federal court in Washington that they were now of the view that the pardon did cover the crimes.U.S. District Judge Dabney L. Friedrich ruled in March that the convictions, which came in Kentucky after a search of Wilson’s home, were not covered by the pardon.Friedrich said that Trump can still pardon Wilson for unrelated convictions but that he has not yet.Pallas told The Epoch Times in an email after that ruling that Friedrich missed the point because “President Trump is in the courtroom speaking through his surrogate, the prosecutor.”A different judge, at around the same time, declined to vacate the convictions of Edward Kelley, another Jan. 6 defendant who offered similar arguments against conspiracy and threat charges. Kelley has not appealed that ruling.Also on Wednesday, a federal judge in Florida agreed to dismiss the convictions of another Jan. 6 defendant, Jeremy Brown, who was convicted of grenade and firearm possession in 2023. The judge overseeing the case cited how the Department of Justice moved to throw out the charges, referencing the pardon. Tyler DurdenThu, 04/03/2025 - 22:35

And even though in the modern age there’s trading done at all hours, all around the world, we still had to wait until 9:30 for The Old Man’s version of “the market” to open. But we knew it was gonna be bad. For everyone and everything (except Russia). How could it have been otherwise?Still, there are always those who refuse to see it coming. Or refused to see it for what it was. Which is to say, “ruination.” Just “wildly destructive stupidity.”The good news about Democratic reaction to the tariffs is that they had a genuine success in the Senate, with four Gop defections on a measure to block them! Republicans do know this sucks for them!The not-so-good news is that it was about the last round of tariffs announced — the ones against Canada — not including this most recent round of nuttery.Luckily, there was more good news. Namely, Democratic turnout and performance in Tuesday’s elections. It was good news even in the expected Florida losses, but most especially in the Wisconsin win.The momentum is most welcome! We’re gonna need it, because he’s not leaving willingly. And the Gop knows that sucks for them, too.In case you thought Signalgate didn’t still suck, it does! They don’t want to let Mike Waltz out from under that bus, even if he hasn’t yet gotten caught in the wheels.Elsewhere, Eric Adams finally got his case dismissed. But not the way the Trump DOJ envisioned it. And Gerry Connolly scores with some SSA emails that confirm that stupidest of scenarios: Yes, Social Security registration for newborns in Maine really was targeted because Janet Mills was tough with Trump.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s so-called liberation day for the country came and went. What, exactly, did his trade plans liberate the world’s largest economy from? Leadership of the global economic and financial system? King dollar’s seat on the throne? Cordial relations with trading partners and political allies?Of course, that’s all speculation. The tariffs, apart from the 25% duty on autos, have yet to kick in. Trump’s universal 10% tariffs will take effect April 5, while the ostensibly “reciprocal” tariff rate — calculated using an unconventional, to put it mildly, formula based on trade deficit in goods — will be live April 9.Despite the horror expressed by economists, market strategists and (privately) CEOs, Trump might indeed be right that the U.S. economy and, more specifically, its manufacturing industry, could be revitalized after a period of pain. “The markets are going to boom. The stock is going to boom. The country is going to boom,” he said at the White House.But for now, the only (unwilling) subjects of Trump’s “liberation” were investors, who were freed from the oppressive weight of their stock returns. Investors then fled to the safety of bonds, before more “booms” shake the market.What you need to know todayTrump reportedly open to tariff talksU.S. President Donald Trump said he would be open to tariff talks with other counties if they offer something phenomenal, according to a Reuters report. Trump’s top trade aide Peter Navarro told CNBC less than an hour earlier that the sweeping tariffs are “not a negotiation.” Separately, Altimeter Capital CEO Brad Gerstner told CNBC that he spoke with CEOS of America’s largest companies, and they think tariffs are “a huge mistake.”Bloodbath for U.S. stocksStocks in the U.S. plummeted Thursday. The S&P 500 sank 4.84% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average slumped 3.98%. It was both indexes’ biggest declines since June 2020. The Nasdaq Composite plunged 5.97% for its worst session since March 2020. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield fell as low as 4% as investors turned to bonds in their search for safety. Asia-Pacific markets sank Friday. Japan’s Nikkei 225 fell over 3%, leading losses in the region, while Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 dropped 2.44% into correction territory.Trillions in market cap lost by Mag 7The Magnificent Seven stocks collectively lost around $1.03 trillion in market cap, according to a CNBC analysis of Thursday’s session. As a whole, CNBC’s Magnificent Seven index tumbled more than 6% in the trading day. Apple shares were bruised the most, falling over 9%, its steepest fall in 5 years. Apple’s official list of suppliers largely comprises countries disproportionately affected by Trump tariffs.Stagflation skulking round the corner?Trump’s tariff plan will slow down growth and might push up prices, making the threat of stagflation “real,” Lindsay Rosner, Goldman Sachs’ head of multi-asset fixed income, said. JPMorgan economists think Trump’s trade policies “would likely push the US and global economy into recession this year.” The U.S. Federal Reserve will then face a no-win situation, having to choose between fighting inflation, boosting growth — or simply avoiding the fray and letting events take their course without intervention.South Korean court upholds impeachment South Korea’s Constitutional Court Friday upheld the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, ousting him from office.

That’s according to a CNBC translation of the Chinese-language statement.Instead, Pang expects China to focus on improving its own economy by diversifying export destinations and products, as well as doubling down on its priority of boosting domestic consumption.

This is CNBC’s live blog covering European markets.European stock markets continued to move lower at the open on Friday, with investors still reeling from the scale of U.S. tariffs announced this week.The regional Stoxx 600 index was down 1.7% at 9:05 a.m. in London, with the banking sector down another 5.8% after Thursday’s 5.53% plunge. The Stoxx 600 closed 2.57% lower on Thursday, as the world digested the steep duties slapped by U.S. President Donald Trump on more than 180 countries, bringing fears of a global trade war and a U.S. recession to a boiling point.Among the hardest-hit sectors on Thursday was retail, with the Stoxx Luxury 10 index down 5.2% in its worst session for nearly four years. Shares of shipping giants Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd, bellwethers for the health of the global economy, both fell more than 9%.The sweeping tariffs were particularly severe on export-reliant, developing economies in Asia which produce garments and other consumer goods for the rest of the world. Trump’s 25% tariffs on imported vehicles to the U.S. also took effect this week, joining his duties on steel and aluminum.The euro saw strong gains against the U.S. dollar on the news, hitting a six-month high, though dipped 0.2% Friday morning.Economists are still scrambling to assess the scale of the fallout, which will depend on how long tariffs remain in their existing form and on how other nations retaliate.The European Union on Thursday said it would prepare countermeasures against the U.S. if negotiations fail.French President Emmanuel Macron urged French companies to pause planned investments in the U.S., and acting German economy minister Robert Habeck said Trump would “buckle under pressure” if Europe bands together in its response.The EU was hit with tariffs of 20%, the U.K. of 10%, Norway of 15%, and Switzerland of 31%.Economists at Goldman Sachs said in a Friday note that while the U.K.’s tariffs were lower than the others, they were nonetheless higher than expected, leading to a lower growth forecast for the British economy, down from 0.8% to 0.7% this year. The investment bank also trimmed its growth outlooks for Switzerland, Sweden and Norway.The market impact was even more severe in the U.S., where numerous economists began to forecast a potential recession as a result of tariffs.Thursday was the worst day since 2020 for each of the three major U.S. indexes, with the Dow and S&P 500 down around 4% and 4.8%, respectively, while the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 6%.Asia-Pacific markets tumbled on Friday, with Japanese stocks among the worst performers.Why European banks are bleeding out in the wake of U.S. tariffsEuropean banks have been battered in the wake of U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping and more-aggressive-than-anticipated tariffs, which pose inflationary and recessionary risks to the world’s largest economy. The European banking index extended its hemorrhage on Friday morning with a further 5.8% in losses by 9:15 a.m. London time.Economists have extensively warned that the duties announced Wednesday — involving a blanket 10% tariff on all trade partners and further reciprocal levies on targeted counterparts — could bleed into higher costs for American consumers, fueling domestic inflation and stoking the risk of a recession — which Allianz Chief Economic Advisor Mohamed El-Erian warns has now grown uncomfortably high. Critically, recessions typically translate into declining interest rates that ripple into net interest margin contraction for the financial sector, also reducing loan demand and bolstering the odds of loan defaults.“Economic slowdowns (or recessions) have a materially adverse impact on the US banking industry’s loan growth, credit costs, investment banking fees, trading profitability, and asset management fees,” Morningstar’s Suryansh Sharma warned on April 3.Beyond reacting to high uncertainty in the prominent U.S. economy, European — and broader global — financial institutions are also vulnerable to disruptions and volatility in the greenback, given their substantial reserves of the world’s dominant currency. They are also impacted by the prospect of stifled European economic growth as a result of trade tariffs pushing local producers to lower their prices to sustain demand. Within the EU, which will be subject to a 20% levy, Poland on Thursday warned that the U.S. protectionist trade policy revealed Wednesday will cost the Polish economy 0.4% of its gross domestic product, or roughly 10 billion zlotys ($2.6 billion).— Ruxandra IordacheEurope stocks slide Europe’s Stoxx 600 index was 1.67% lower at 9:13 a.m. U.K. time, on track for a third straight day of sharp losses.Banking stocks dropped 5.7%, while mining stocks lost 3.7%.

We no longer forecast a price range, because price volatility is likely to stay elevated on higher recession risk,” the investment bank’s analysts wrote in a note.Global benchmark Brent slipped 0.41% to $69.85 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate futures were 0.45% lower at $66.65 per barrel.—Lee Ying ShanThe biggest winners and losers in Europe as Trump announces sweeping tariffsGlobal markets, businesses and long-standing geopolitical relationships were thrown into disarray on Thursday, the day after U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff policy — and Europe was not spared from the chaos.The European Union has been hit with 20% duties, while the U.K. was hit with a lower 10%, benefiting from its more balanced U.S. trade relationship. All eyes will now be on how far policymakers will go in their response, and how deeply the conflict can escalate.Most analysts agree that, from an economic perspective, there are few — or perhaps no — economic winners from the expected slowdown in growth and the fracturing of trade ties.Some bright spots nevertheless emerged among European assets on Thursday — as well as some deeply negative ones.Read the full story here. — Chloe Taylor, Jenni Reid, Sam Meredith Eight OPEC+ producers accelerate crude oil output hikes, pushing oil prices down 6%Eight key OPEC+ producers on Thuesday agreed to raise combined crude oil output by 411,000 barrels per day, speeding up the pace of their scheduled hikes and pushing down oil prices.The Ice Brent contract with June delivery was trading at $70.50 per barrel at 1:32 p.m. London time (8:32 a.m. ET), down 5.94% from the Wednesday close.

The oil price outlook is being hit with more bearish forecasts on the back of U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping and market-hammering tariff announcements. Markets were therefore stunned when OPEC+ chose not only to go ahead with its previously held plans to increase oil production, but also to nearly triple the expected increase figure.The oil price outlook is being hit with more bearish forecasts on the back of U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping and market-hammering tariff announcements. Businesses and investors worry that a trade war and lower global growth lies ahead.Goldman Sachs on Thursday reduced its December 2025 forecasts for global and U.S. benchmarks Brent crude and WTI by $5 to $66 and $62 a barrel, respectively, “because the two key downside risks we have flagged are realizing, namely tariff escalation and somewhat higher OPEC+ supply.”The bank also cut its forecasts for the oil benchmarks in 2025 and 2026, adding that “we no longer forecast a price range, because price volatility is likely to stay elevated on higher recession risk.” Analysts at S&P Global Market Intelligence predict that in a worst-case scenario, global oil demand growth could be slashed by 500,000 barrels per day.JPMorgan, for its part, raised its recession odds for the global economy to 60% for this year, up from a previous forecast of 40%.Markets were therefore stunned when OPEC, which produces about 40% of the world’s crude oil — along with its non-OPEC allies that together comprise OPEC+ — chose not only to go ahead with its previously held plans to increase oil production, but also to nearly triple the expected increase figure.Eight key OPEC+ producers on Thursday agreed to raise combined crude oil output by 411,000 barrels per day, speeding up the pace of their scheduled hikes and pushing down oil prices. The group — Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Algeria, and Oman — was widely expected to implement an increase of just under 140,000 barrels per day next month. The news pushed oil prices 6% lower. OPEC+ bullishness and appeasing TrumpSeveral factors underpin the oil-producing alliance’s decision. One is that the group is bullish on oil demand later in the year, putting it firmly in the minority as investor outlooks sour and fears of a global slowdown worsen.The eight OPEC+ members behind the production decision cited “the continuing healthy market fundamentals and the positive market outlook” in their statement Thursday, saying that “this measure will provide an opportunity for the participating countries to accelerate their compensation.” The statement added that “the gradual increases may be paused or reversed subject to evolving market conditions.”Another likely reason for the group’s move has to do with another T-word: the man in the White House, who during his first term in office and from the very start of his second, has loudly demanded that the oil producer group pump more crude to help bring down prices for Americans. “First of all, this is partly about appeasing Trump,” Saul Kavonic, head of energy research at MST Marquee, told CNBC’s Dan Murphy on Friday. “Trump will be putting pressure on OPEC to reduce oil prices, which reduces global energy prices, to help offset the inflationary impact of his tariffs.”OPEC officials have denied that the move was made to appease Trump. Compliance and market shareMeanwhile, as compliance is a major issue for OPEC+ — with countries overproducing crude beyond their quotas, complicating the group’s efforts to control how much supply it allows into the market — the move could be a way to enforce that, according to Helima Croft, head of global commodity strategy and MENA research at RBC Capital Markets.“We think a desire by the OPEC leadership to send a warning signal to Kazakhstan, Iraq, and even Russia about the cost of continued overproduction underlies the decision,” Croft wrote in a note published Thursday. She referenced the March 2020 oil price war, when Saudi Arabia flooded the market with supply to tank oil prices and forced Russia back into compliance after Moscow initially refused to curb production to help the alliance stabilize prices. The price war caused Brent crude prices to go as low as $15 a barrel.The production increases are also “an example of OPEC increasing their market share,” Kavonic said, adding that it “ultimately does come at the expense of the United States [shale] patch,” which U.S. producers likely will not be too thrilled about. What happens next?OPEC+ appears confident about the market turning a corner in the coming months on the assumption that oil demand will increase in the summer and the tariff wars will be resolved in the coming months, said Nader Itayim, editorial manager at Argus Media.“These countries are largely comfortable with the $70, $75 per barrel band,” Itayim said. What comes next depends on the trajectory of the tariffs and a potential trade war. Oil dropping into the $60 range could force pauses or even a reversal in OPEC+ production increase plans, analysts say – although that is likely to be met with resistance from countries like Iraq and Kazakhstan that have long been itching to increase their oil production for their own revenues. Whatever happens, the group maintains the flexibility to adapt its plans month by month, Itayim noted. “If things don’t quite go the way they imagine, all it does take, really, is a phone call.”
Ehang earlier this week said it was the first in the world to obtain a certificate for operating a pilotless aerial vehicle that can carry humans. The certification clears the way for flying taxis to become a viable method of transportation in some Chinese cities over the next three to five years. Analysts and researchers say the certification shows how China is a leading innovator in the future of transportation and mobility.Flying taxis will become a viable method of transportation in China in the next three to five years, according to a senior executive at Ehang, a company that makes autonomous aerial vehicles (AAVs).The prediction by Ehang’s Vice President He Tianxing comes days after the company became the first company, along with its joint venture partner Hefei Heyi Aviation, to obtain a certificate to operate “civil human-carrying pilotless aerial vehicles” from the Civil Aviation Administration of China.Ehang said the certification clears the way for commercial operations of its vehicles, allowing for paid human-carrying services and any other low-altitude use cases the company develops.At first, Ehang’s AAVs will be used for tourism, with passengers able to ride along designated routes in Guangzhou and Hefei by the end of June, He told CNBC in an interview translated from Mandarin.The company will gradually explore air taxi services as its tourist operations progress. He named Hefei and Shenzhen as examples of some of the first cities expected to get air taxi services.Ehang’s EH216-S, which received the certification, is a fully electric, pilotless two-seater aerial vehicle that features 16 propellers, according to Ehang’s website. It has a maximum design speed of 130 kilometers per hour, with a maximum range of 30 kilometers.He expects to get certifications to operate in additional cities this year and next, with the second set of locations for tourist operations expected to include Zhuhai, Shenzhen, Taiyuan, Wuxi, Wenzhou and Wuhan.For the forthcoming Hefei and Guangzhou locations, he declined to share the price per ride but hoped it would be reasonable enough to encourage more people to try out the pilotless aerial vehicle.The experience should be “just like riding in a car,” added He, noting that no helmet or parachute is required. He said the initial length of rides offered by the company would vary from around three minutes to 10 minutes.When asked about global markets, He said overseas partners had actively reached out since news of the certification, and he expected Ehang could expand overseas in the next few years.Early leadAccording to technology analysts, China’s allowing commercial use of passenger AAVs signifies its innovation and leadership in transportation and mobility. “This is a major development and shot across the bow from China showing technology innovation is accelerating,” said Dan Ives, global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities. China has already established itself as a global leader in electric vehicles and autonomous driving. Flying taxis, meanwhile, represent “one of the next frontiers for the auto and tech industry,” said Ives, adding that China already has created a clear lead in that space. Beijing first released rules for unmanned aircraft flight — vehicles without a pilot on board — in June 2023. The U.S., on the other hand, has yet to roll out comparable regulations.Instead, Washington’s Federal Aviation Administration last year unveiled general rules for “powered-lift” vehicles, which includes some electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircrafts. eVTOL encompasses electric-powered aircrafts designed to carry passengers and take off and land vertically without the need for runways. However, the FAA has focused on those that are manually piloted.Tu Le, founder of auto industry consultancy Sino Auto Insights, told CNBC that the U.S. has been falling behind China and even the EU in eVTOLs due to this lack of favorable policies, chalking it up to overregulation, lobbying from competing industries or “just plain politics.”Meanwhile, China has been backing eVTOL technology as part of its “low-altitude economy,” the development of which has become a major policy goal. The term refers to economic activity taking place in airspace below 1,000 meters, well under the around 9,000 meters most commercial planes cruise around. In addition to flying taxis and other eVTOLs, examples of the low-altitude economy include unmanned drones for delivery and helicopter-operated air shuttle routes.The term was recently included in China’s annual work report for 2025, with the government promising to promote its development. Beijing has also committed to boosting consumption in the low-altitude economy, notably in low-altitude tourism, air sports, and consumer drones, as part of a special action plan in March.Already, China’s low-altitude economy is one of its fastest-growing industries, with it projected to be worth 1.5 trillion yuan ($205 billion) by 2025, and almost double that by 2035, according to a report by the research group Hurun. Competition ramping upSino Auto Insights’ Le also credits China’s progress in the eVTOLs sector to a high degree of domestic competition. China has seen a major ramp-up of prospective players in recent years, as companies prepare for a high-tech future that was once confined to science fiction. Firms investing in the space have included electric vehicle makers like GAC, Geely and Xpeng.Xpeng’s flying car division, Xpeng Aero HT, last week, completed a maiden flight of its “Land Carrier” product — a van paired with a 2-man quadcopter, the company told CNBC. Xpeng Aero HT said it will hold a pre-sale launch event and complete the construction of its mass production factory in the second half of the year. It also aims to obtain certifications for airworthiness by the end of the year.Last month, XPeng Motors CEO He Xiaopeng told state media the company plans to mass-produce flying cars by 2026, as China’s low-altitude economy is boosted by supportive policy.However, despite China leading in eVTOL regulation, it is expected to face competition from international companies also investing in and building various types of air vehicle technologies. Some of those companies include international companies like America’s Boeing, France’s Airbus, and the Brazilian firm Embraer, which have taken steps to take advantage of future flying car demand. Numerous startups, including Joby Aviation, Archer, and Wisk, in the U.S. are also planning on launching various commercial air taxi services over the next few years. According to Wedbush’s Ives, the global electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft business could grow into a $30 billion market opportunity over the next decade.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the game that made modding a regular gaming experience, and plenty of players have formed an opinion on the best Skyrim mods over the years. Released in 2011, Skyrim was an immediate commercial and critical success, surpassing all expectations and redefining what an open-world game could be. Over the years, it has kept a thriving player base as well as a fantastic modding community, with players able to download thousands of unique mods.However, not all mods are created equal, and there are some that you should prioritize downloading first. Below, we highlight the 50 best Skyrim mods you can download right now, which range from gameplay tweaks to massive DLC-sized mods. There are also quality-of-life mods and others that allow you to bypass the slower parts of Skyrim.As a note, this list includes mods for both the base version of Skyrim and the Special Edition version, as the mods are slightly different for both editions. These mods will work with all installation methods unless otherwise specifically outlined by the mod's creator. You can click the link for each mod to see what edition it's specified for and what the creator recommends for installation. SkyUICreated by: SkyUI TeamUp first, we have arguably the most recognizable mod for Skyrim of all time. SkyUI is available for both the base version and the Special Edition and it's largely meant for PC players. It completely changes the interface and adds a plethora of features users can take advantage of when they're browsing all of the in-game menus. Skyrim 202XCreated by: PfuscherNext up is Skyrim 202X, which is by far the most downloaded mod for the Special Edition of Skyrim. This mod adds high-resolution textures to a number of different objects in the game, including full-scale cities, dungeons, weapons and armor, and much more. You won't even recognize Skyrim after downloading this mod, even with the Special Edition's new coat of paint. Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition PatchCreated by: The Unofficial Patch Project TeamWe're sticking to the top overall mods for the Special Edition for now, as the Unofficial Patch is the second-most downloaded mod on Nexus Mods. As you can likely tell from the mod's title, the Unofficial Patch does its best to get rid of every major bug left behind by the developers. While there are still some nagging bugs left behind, your copy of the Special Edition won't feature nearly as many issues when you have the mod installed. Immersive ArmorsCreated by: Hothtrooper44Immersive Armors is the first mod for the base version of Skyrim on this list, aside from SkyUI. The mod completely overhauls the armor system in Skyrim, adding dozens of new armor sets that are flawlessly added to the world so your immersion isn't broken. In addition to new armor sets, you can also find new types of armor and clothing, such as capes, earrings, eye patches, and more. All of the new armor can be crafted, but you can also find all of it through various means in Skyrim. A Quality World Map and Solstheim MapCreated by: User_3142012If you're a longtime Skyrim player, you likely know how confusing the default map can be. It's difficult to pinpoint where you are and where certain cities and points of interest are located. With the Quality World Map mod, you can customize how you see your map in Skyrim. The main selling point of the mod is the hand-drawn roads, allowing you to see how to get to places much easier. The mod also features different types of mods, including a paper map and one with higher textures. RaceMenuCreated by: ExpiredThe default character creator in Skyrim is quite substantial, letting you customize your character down to their facial features. However, if you want to go even more in-depth, you need the RaceMenu mod, which opens up a world of new possibilities for the character creator. You can customize your character even further, adding body paints, revamped facial features, and better-looking character models in general. You can download RaceMenu for any version of Skyrim. ImmersiveWeaponsCreated by: Hothtrooper44, Ironman5000, and EckssWe couldn't add the ImmersiveArmor mod without also including the ImmersiveWeapons mod. Designed for the base version of Skyrim, this mod does the exact same thing as the ImmersiveArmor mod, only this time with weapons. You can find all new weapons, either through crafting or in the world, and fresh variants of the weapons you know and love. Both of these weapons are 100% lore-friendly and only add to your Skyrim experience. Ordinator - Perks of SkyrimCreated by: Enai SiaionThe perk system in Skyrim is widely considered to be one of the weaker points of the game, featuring a convoluted system and some unnecessary clunkiness to the character-building. With the Ordinator- Perks of Skyrim mod, you can actually enjoy unlocking new perks. The mod overhauls the perk system, revamping every single perk tree and allowing for a larger variety of character builds. There are 469 new perks with the mod, so this can completely alter any previous experience you have with Skyrim. JK's SkyrimCreated by: Jkrojmal and Teabag86Are you tired of the same old cities and towns in Skyrim? In addition to downloading a texture pack mod like Skyrim 202X, you can also install JK's Skyrim, which enhances Skyrim's cities to a new level. Locations like Whiterun, Solitude, Markarth, and others are overhauled visually, making them look much more distinguished. There are over a dozen locations enhanced with the mod. Relationship Dialogue OverhaulCreated by: cloudedtruthIf you're fed up with hearing the same old lines of dialogue from Skyrim's NPCs, then you need to download the Relationship Dialogue Overhaul mod. This single mod adds over 5,000 lines of unique dialogue for dozens of NPCs and uses the characters' same voices. In addition to completely new dialogue, there's also cut dialogue added that's in the game files, but has never been heard in the base game. Apocalypse - Magic of SkyrimCreated by: Enai SiaionAfter a while, the magicka system in Skyrim can grow boring if you've played through the game a few times. Luckily, the Apocalypse - Magic of Skyrim mod exists, adding 155 new spells into the game, as well as new visuals and animations. All of these new spells are lore-friendly and can be accessed in a few different ways, including through scrolls, staves, vendors, and more. The new spells are added across the different magicka branches (Restoration, Destruction, etc.). Alternate Start - Live Another LifeCreated by: ArthmoorOne easy way to experience Skyrim differently is to change up the opening sequence. While several mods offer an altered version to the start of the game, the Alternate Start - Live Another Life mod is my personal favorite. It sees your character thrown into a dungeon and clinging to life when something magical happens. The mod still allows you to pick your character and you'll be able to select certain choices that have an impact on the rest of the game. Beyond Skyrim - BrumaCreated by: The Beyond Skyrim - Cyrodiil Development TeamBeyond Skyrim - Bruma is a DLC-sized mod that allows you to travel to the very northern part of Cyrodiil and explore the county of Bruma. There are Ayleid ruins to go through, NPCs to speak to, and enemies to defeat throughout the newly explorable area. This mod is larger than the Dragonborn DLC in terms of size and scope, so it's one you don't want to miss out on as a hardcore Skyrim fan. The Dance of Death - A Killmove ModCreated by: DaedalusAIAn underrated aspect of the combat system in Skyrim is the killmoves, which allow you to eliminate an enemy in a unique way. With The Dance of Death mod, you gain access to several different killmoves previously inaccessible in Skyrim. You also have more control of what killmove you perform, which doesn't sound like a big deal but it can really change up your combat experience. Convenient HorsesCreated by: AlekConvenient Horses is the best horse mod for Skyrim, allowing you to customize your mount to a completely new degree. You can now equip horse armor, whistle for your horse to come to you, store items on your horse, and gather materials while on horseback. Your followers now also have access to a horse as well as all of the other features I just mentioned. Your horse even has access to a charge attack and faster dismounts, making them viable for combat in Skyrim. Skyrim Immersive CreaturesCreated by: lifestorock and jackstarrAnother way you can change up your Skyrim experience is through a new onslaught of enemy creatures. The Immersive Creatures mod adds dozens of new enemies to see and fight in Skyrim, as well as adding fresh variations to existing enemies. There are all sorts of creatures to find, including some in dungeons, in and around the water, and on land. Deadly DragonsCreated by: 3JIou and RedshiftLet's face it, dragon fights can get really old, really quickly in Skyrim. After your first couple of dragon encounters, they all start to mix together. Fortunately, you can download the Deadly Dragons mod to turn any dragon encounter into one to remember. This mod gives different dragons varying health, damage rates, types, and abilities. No one dragon fight will feel the same after downloading the mod and you'll actually be presented with a challenge during each encounter. FalskaarCreated by: AlexanderJVelickyFalskaar is one of the most successful large-scale mods in Skyrim's history. It adds a totally new explorable area to the map and over 20 hours of gameplay, including newly voiced NPCs, fresh quests, and several dungeons to explore. The quests are not considered canon, but they are well-done and keep your attention while exploring the new locations. If you're looking for some new DLC to consume in Skyrim, Falskaar should be one of your first stops. Lucien - Immersive Fully Voiced Male FollowerCreated by: Joseph RussellWhile you can always pick up a follower along your journey in Skyrim, why not save yourself the trouble and add a premade one? Lucien is a male follower who comes with several perks, such as a level-up system, 5,000 lines of dialogue, and more. As you progress in Skyrim, so will Lucien, giving you a true companion to grow with. Cutting Room FloorCreated by: ArthmoorOne easy way to add more content to Skyrim is to experience what the developers have already added to the game. However, there are several pieces of content in the game files that never made it to the final build. The Cutting Room Floor mod restores all of this cut content into the full game, allowing you to experience everything the developers designed. This cut content includes new locations for the most part, but there are also new NPCs quests, locations, and items. Apothecary - An Alchemy OverhaulCreated by: Simon Magus, DeltaRider, and OreoWe've already included mods to overhaul the perks, magicka, weapons, armor, and followers in Skyrim, so why not Alchemy as well? The Apothecary mod gives you a completely new Alchemy system to master, featuring new effects, recipes, and XP rates, along with a plethora of more features. Whether you're an Alchemy master or someone who never partakes in the system, this mod alters how you'll play the game. Legacy of the DragonbornCreated by: icecreamassassinIf you're looking for a complete tectonic shift in how you play Skyrim, you need to download the Legacy of the Dragonborn mod. This mod adds over 100 hours of gameplay, complete with new quests, locations, NPCs, items, and more. It essentially acts as dozens of mods in one, so I don't recommend mixing this mod with others on this list. This mod is best served as a standalone mod that you play through an entire save with. Better JumpingCreated by: meh321 and z65536The jumping mechanic is one that truly shows Skyrim's age, as it's totally outdated and almost unusable in today's age. However, with the Better Jumping mod, you can now jump while sprinting, double jump, and adjust how high you jump. It's a small gameplay change, but one that can make a huge difference during any playthrough. Achievements Mods EnablerCreated by: xSHADOWMANxOne of the major downsides to downloading mods in Skyrim is the inability to earn achievements in-game. If you download the Achievements Mods Enabler mod, though, you can bypass that restriction. This is especially useful for newer players who have yet to earn many of the achievements in Skyrim but still want to use mods. Campfire - Complete Camping SystemCreated by: CheskoNot every mod has to be about constant action, improving visuals, or upgrading your character in Skyrim. Some mods aim to simply increase your immersion, and few do it better than the Campfire mod. This allows you to construct campfires for you and your followers to sit around. The fires can be built brighter and higher with resources you collect around the map and you can use the fire to cook food or interact with your followers with unique dialogue. Realistic Needs and DiseasesCreated by: perseid9Skyrim can be too easy for many veterans of the game. If you fall into this class, or simply crave a more difficult experience, then you'll want to download the Realistic Needs and Diseases mod. This essentially turns Skyrim into a hardcore survival experience, making it so your character needs to eat, sleep, rest, drink, and do everything else a human requires. You can also be infected with diseases that need to be cured, otherwise you'll perish. Frostfall - Hypothermia Camping SurvivalCreated by: CheskoBuilding off the Realistic Needs and Diseases mod comes the Frostall mod. This adds a cold-weather system to Skyrim that cannot be taken lightly. From frigid temperatures to cold water, you need to be mindful of every surrounding on the map if you want to stay alive. This mod requires the Campfire mod to work, as that's going to be your primary way of staying warm with this mod installed. I don't recommend mixing Frostfall with Realistic Needs and Diseases, though, as the mods might not mix well and are two entirely different experiences. Breezehome FullyUpgradableCreated by: Sku11M0nkeyThere are too many house mods in Skyrim to name, but arguably one of the best overall ones is Breezehome. This installs a wonderfully designed home right inside of Whiterun and features plenty of amenities, including a weapons rack, crafting stations, a follower's room, and more. This version of the mod also allows you to fully upgrade the home to feature even more amenities.I recommend also looking through Nexus Mods for more home mods, as there are plenty to choose from across every location in Skyrim. You can also download the base Breezehome mod, which doesn't come fully upgraded. Opulent Thieves GuildCreated by: SokkvabekkThe Thieves Guild is an immensely popular faction in Skyrim, and the Opulent Thieves Guild mod only enhances your experience with it. The mod overhauls the guild's headquarters as well as the Ragged Flaggon, but only in stages. The locations become better-looking, new NPCs are added, and other fixes are made as you progress through Skryim and the Thieves Guild questline. TrueHUD - HUD AdditionsCreated by: ErshWhile some players might not like anything on their HUD in Skyrim, others could lean in the opposite direction. If you're someone who wants more information on their screen, then TrueHUD is a perfect mod for you. The mod adds HUD details such as a boss HP bar, follower bars, and additional widgets that you can freely customize and move around. Ars Metallica - Smithing EnhancementCreated by: ArthmoorThe smithing system in Skyrim leaves plenty to be desired, and the Ars Metallica mod fixes most of the issues players have with the system. It adds the ability to gain XP while mining and smelting, craft arrows and lockpicks, smelt down weapons and armor for resources, and more. You can also craft specific armor depending on what faction you belong to, so you can equip the appropriate gear for a certain quest. Unread Books GlowCreated by: duggelzIf you're a history buff in Skyrim, then reading all of the available literature spread throughout the game is going to be extra important to you. To simplify the task of reading through every book in the game, you can use the Unread Books Glow mod, which makes books you haven't read before glow a bright color. This allows you to know whether you've read a book or not before interacting with it. Moonpath to ElsweyrCreated by: MuppetPuppet and An_Old_SockTrue modding veterans of Skyrim might know the Moonpath mod already, but it deserves a place on this list. Moonpath to Elsweyr was one of the first DLC-sized quest mods for Skyrim and still enjoys regular updates to this day. The mod allows you to explore several different environments you can't experience in the base game, including deserts, jungles, and more. There are also new quests to complete, NPCs to meet, and enemies to defeat. The Forgotten CityCreated by: Nick PearceThe Forgotten City is one of the most expansive and immersive quest mods you can download in Skyrim. It's a roughly eight-hour experience that features an award-winning script based on a murder mystery set in an underground city. You'd be hard-pressed to find a mod more worth your time than The Forgotten City. Helgen RebornCreated by: Mike HanchoHelgen is the first location you visit in Skyrim, unless you install the Alternate Start mod, but you never really have to visit it again after the dragon destroys it in the opening minutes of the game. The Helgen Reborn mod aims to rectify that by offering a full voiced-acted experience that sees you restore the town to its former glory and uncover some of its secrets. There's a battle arena, interesting characters, an expansive storyline, and plenty of other sights to see in Helgen Reborn. Wintersun - Faiths of SkyrimCreated by: Enai SiaionWintersun - Faiths of Skyrim is a lore-friendly religion mod that allows you to worship different dieties in Skyrim. You can pray at shrines and complete objectives for your chosen diety to build a stronger relationship with it that can eventually reward you with new strengths. There are several different dieties you can choose to worship, some of which you'll recognize from previous Elder Scrolls titles. Stones of Barenziah Quest MarkersCreated by: toaDimeThe Stones of Barenziah are one of Skyrim's most expansive collectible item. There are 24 total stones on the map that you need to find to complete the "No Stone Unturned" quest. All the Stones of Barenziah Quest Markers mod does is add a small marker above each of the stone's location, making it much easier to spot them. However, one major caveat with the mod is you won't get to see the individual locations of the stones, so this quest still relies on your ability to know their general location. Immersive College of WinterholdCreated by: Grantyboy050The College of Winterhold is one of the most stunning locations in Skyrim, but the Immersive mod for the location takes it up a notch. The mod increases visuals across the board, brightening up the entire area and adding improvements to all of its buildings. The characters in and around the college are also overhauled, increasing your immersion when walking throughout the location. Rich Skyrim MerchantsCreated by: Eddie The EagleThis is about as simple as a mod can be in Skyrim, but Rich Skyrim Merchants makes your life ten times easier. All it does is give the various vendors around the map more gold in their inventory, allowing you to sell a greater number of items to them. This completely eliminates the time spent waiting for a vendor's inventory to restock. The mod allows you to customize how much gold the vendors have, ranging from two, five, or ten times the normal amount. WyrmstoothCreated by: Jonx0rWyrmstooth is another DLC-sized quest mod that centers around dragons. As Dragonborn, you're contracted by a company to kill a dragon that's wreaking havoc throughout Skyrim. However, as you progress through the various quests in the mod, you discover the dragon might have some ulterior motives with its destruction. The mod features an entire new area to explore, the ability to buy a castle, new weapons, spells, and other gear, and over 10 hours of gameplay. At Your Own PaceCreated by: agd25At some points during Skyrim's story, you're presented with several different questlines that can be difficult to keep track of. The At Your Own Pace mod tries to fix this by completely revamping all of the questlines in Skyrim. The revamp adds breaks, new ways to role-play, and a general slowdown of the game so you can enjoy everything it has to offer at whatever pace you'd like. You can read more about exactly how the mod achieves this on its Nexus Mods page. DarkendCreated by: JKrojmalDarkend is another DLC-sized mod, but this one doesn't feature any sort of questline. Instead, you travel to a new island, fight never-before-seen enemies, and explore several different areas in the pursuit of a set of ancient weapons. The Soulsborne genre inspires this mod, so don't expect any quest markers or help when you arrive on the mysterious island. You'll have to figure things out for yourself in this punishing, yet rewarding mod. Thunderchild - Epic Shouts and ImmersionCreated by: Enai SiaionShouts are an incredibly unique and useful combat mechanic in Skyrim, and the Thunderchild mod enhances your experience with them. The mod adds 29 new shouts that all have different effects as well as several other features to the game. There are even bug fixes for the existing shouts in Skyrim, so this mod is truly an all-encompassing way to experience the mechanic. Marriage Mod - To Have And To HoldCreated by: joeThinkStudiosLet's face it, the marriage system can be a little bumpy in Skyrim. With the To Have And To Hold mod, you're able to remarry as much as you would like and even marry multiple spouses. If you want to stay with a partner, though, this mod allows you to get closer to your spouse by adding new side quests and events specifically focused on marriage. The mod also improves the marriage system overall by addressing bugs related to it that Bethesda has not fixed. Potion of Ultimate LevelingCreated by: Avatar1971While some mods on this list are focused on fixing issues or smoothing out Skyrim's shortcomings, others are just about fun, and the Potion of Ultimate Leveling mod is one such example. If you can manage to find a Daedra Heart and a Human Heart, you can combine them to create the Potion of Ultimate Leveling, which when consumed immediately increases all of your skills by 85. This maxes out all of your skills, but you can even go a step beyond that and achieve legendary status in every skill to earn more perks for your character. To unlock all perks in Skyrim, you need to be level 252, which requires a total of 10 Potions of Ultimate Leveling to achieve. Throwing WeaponsCreated by: BoubouleHave you ever just wanted to chuck a weapon at an enemy in Skyrim? Maybe you're out of arrows or have no Magicka to use and the best way to damage an enemy would be to throw a weapon at them. The Throwing Weapons mod adds an entire skill tree around this, introducing new weapons into the game and giving you the ability to throw any weapon at enemies with some decent voracity. NPCs can also get in on the action, as higher-level characters will also start throwing weapons around. Chocobos Mounts and FollowersCreated by: gg77If you're a big fan of Final Fantasy or just want to see some colorful new mounts scatter the world of Skyrim, try out the Chocobos mod. This adds the famous multi-colored birds from the world of Final Fantasy, allowing you to use them as mounts or followers. As a mount, the Chocobo does everything you'd expect it to and is often more stable than horses, which tend to knock you off their backs at any given time. The Chocobo followers feature several normal commands, such as Wait, Trade, etc., that make them useful to have out in the world. You can find these Chocobos at stables in major towns across Skyrim. Build Your Own City - Becoming a lordCreated by: hertzncaWe have plenty of mods on this list that add fully developed cities to Skyrim, but what if you could design your own? The Build Your Own City mod gives you that chance, allowing you to become a lord of Tamriel. You can start the city-construction process as soon as you visit an NPC in Riften. Blueprints for everything you can build in a city are available for purchase and then constructed using resources. You're able to build a Lord's House for yourself, smaller houses for NPCs, and merchant stalls, while also placing NPCs/guards around the city. Skyrim FishingCreated by: B1gBadDaddyFishing has been a part of Skyrim since the release of the Anniversary Edition. The Skyrim Fishing mod upgrades the experience, adding some extra functionality to fishing. You can use special types of bait to catch specific types of fish and increase your chances of hooking something on your rod. You can still only fish at designated spots in the water, but this mod makes it far easier to reel in a fish than the base Skyrim fishing mechanic. Faction - Pit FighterCreated by: ThirteenOrangesIf you're looking for a new faction to join to spice up your Skyrim playthrough, look no further than the Pit Fighter Faction mod. It allows you to engage in duels all over Skyrim and increase your standing rank within the faction as you win more combat encounters. Special rewards await at certain ranks, and you'll encounter fleshed-out NPCs, side quests, and gambling mechanics.

Senate GOP budget resolution sets stage for raising debt limit by as much as $5 trillionby Jennifer Shutt, Daily Montanan April 2, 2025WASHINGTON — U.S. Senate Republicans released an updated budget resolution Wednesday that sets a May 9 deadline for more than a dozen committees to approve their slice of the massive package that will permanently extend the GOP tax cuts and make significant reductions in spending.The 70-page budget resolution, however, includes different guidelines for the House and Senate committees, allowing GOP leaders to sidestep their differences on policy for the moment, but not the long haul.The budget resolution also sets the stage for the House to raise the debt limit by $4 trillion and the Senate to lift it by not more than $5 trillion in the reconciliation package.Senate Budget Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., wrote in a statement that final approval of the budget resolution would “unlock the ability for the appropriate Senate committees to fully fund our border needs for four years, provide much-needed financial relief to our military at a time of great danger, make the 2017 tax cuts permanent to energize the economy, and do what has been promised for decades: go through every line item of the budget to cut wasteful and unnecessary spending — hopefully by the trillions.”Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., released a statement of his own, saying the “parliamentarian has reviewed the Budget Committee’s substitute amendment and deemed it appropriate for consideration under the Budget Act.”“It is now time for the Senate to move forward with this budget resolution in order to further advance our shared Republican agenda in Congress,” Thune wrote.The Senate parliamentarian is the nonpartisan scorekeeper who ensures everything included in a reconciliation bill meets the chamber’s strict rules.Here comes the vote-a-ramaThe complicated reconciliation process will allow the GOP to approve its core policy goals without needing support from Democrats in the Senate, where 60 votes are usually needed to advance legislation. Reconciliation does, however, come with several hoops to jump through.One of those hurdles will come later this week when the Senate endures the dreaded vote-a-rama; a marathon amendment voting session that typically lasts overnight. After that, senators will be able to send the budget resolution to the House for final approval.The tax-and-spending blueprint released Wednesday will send a dozen House committees instructions on how to draft their pieces of the package, while 10 Senate committees will write bills.Typically, the committee instructions, which just include a budget target, are similar, if not identical, for the House and Senate. But differences of opinion between Republican leaders about how much to cut federal spending, as well as other disagreements, led to differing instructions.The House has a significantly higher threshold for cutting government spending than the Senate.The Agriculture Committee needs to slice at least $230 billion; Education and Workforce must reduce spending by a minimum of $330 billion; Energy and Commerce needs to cut no less than $880 billion; Financial Services must find at least $1 billion in savings; Natural Resources has a minimum of $1 billion; Oversight and Government Reform has a floor of $50 billion; and the Transportation Committee needs to reduce deficits by $10 billion or more.House committees that can increase the federal deficit include the Armed Services Committee with a cap of $100 billion in new spending, Homeland Security with a $90 billion ceiling for new funding for programs it oversees, Judiciary with a maximum of $110 billion and Ways and Means, which can increase deficits up to $4.5 trillion for tax cuts.Spending cuts in SenateSenators set a much lower bar for themselves in terms of spending cuts, though the way the reconciliation instructions are written, as a floor and not a ceiling, will give leeway for those committees to cut much more.Four Senate committees — Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry; Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs; Energy and Natural Resources; and Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, or HELP — must each find at least $1 billion in spending cuts over the 10-year budget window.Senate committees also got instructions for increasing the deficit, which will allow them to spend up to the dollar amount outlined in the budget resolution. Those committees include Armed Services at $150 billion; Commerce, Science and Transportation with $20 billion; Environment and Public Works at $1 billion; Finance with $1.5 trillion in new deficits, likely for tax cuts; Homeland Security at $175 billion and Judiciary with $175 billion.Once the House and Senate both vote to adopt the same budget resolution, the committees can formally begin drafting and marking up their bills.Those bills, according to the instructions, must be sent to the Budget committees before May 9. That panel will then bundle all of the various pieces together into one reconciliation package and send it to the floor.The House and Senate must vote to approve the same reconciliation package before it can go to President Donald Trump for his signature and become law.Republicans have a paper-thin majority in the House and will need to ensure that lawmakers from across the party support all of the elements going into the reconciliation package. Even a few defectors in that chamber could block the bill from moving forward.Senate GOP leaders have a bit more wiggle room, but cannot lose more than three of their members and pass a reconciliation bill.Last updated 4:07 p.m., Apr. 2, 2025Daily Montanan is part of States Newsroom, a nonprofit news network supported by grants and a coalition of donors as a 501c(3) public charity.

Trump's Reconfiguration Of Global Conflict: What It Means For Asia And Europe Authored by Joseph Yizheng Lian via The Epoch Times,Two months into his second term, President Donald Trump was accused by some politicians in the West of abandoning Washington’s longstanding allies as a result of his stance on the war in Ukraine. But one doesn’t have to look very far back in history to note that a similar act of “unfriending” had occurred from continental Europe and wasn’t unjustified.In 1988, the late British Prime Minister Lady Margaret Thatcher, speaking at the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium, advised her audience thus:“We must strive to maintain the United States’ commitment to Europe’s defence. And that means recognising the burden on their resources of the world role they undertake and their point that their allies should bear the full part of the defence of freedom, particularly as Europe grows wealthier.”Unfortunately, those mild words of the Iron Lady fell on deaf ears.Eleven years later, her tone had changed into one of disdain and spite, when in a Conservative Party conference in Blackpool she shockingly declared, “In my lifetime all the problems have come from mainland Europe, and all the solutions have come from the English-speaking nations across the world.”Between Bruges and Blackpool, Thatcher morphed from a 30-year supporter of European integration into a fierce opponent. She decried the “British malaise”—a term used by Conservative politician and historian Sir Ian Gilmour in his 1969 book “The Body Politic”—to characterize the economic stagnation, the social decline, and the sense of futility and hopelessness that seemed to pervade British society.Thatcher abhorred the European welfare state, criticized intransigent unionism, and loathed the power wielded by unelected Brussels bureaucrats, who had virtually forgotten NATO by the mid-1990s, even though Europe had grown rich. She won her battle posthumously, in 2020 (BREXIT).U.S. President Ronald Reagan and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher pose for photographers on the patio outside the Oval Office in Washington on July 17, 1987. Mike Sargent/AFP via Getty ImagesSince then, primarily by default, Britain has gone out of Europe and built partnerships in the Indo–Pacific, a region that it is historically familiar with, signed bilateral free trade agreements Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and is in talks for new ones with the United States and India. The UK has recently gained membership in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, or CPTPP. The new Labour government has not tried to bend back the arc.The United States is on a similar trajectory. Trump also spurns Big Government and bureaucratic multinational agencies. Like Thatcher almost 40 years ago—but much more vehemently—he has criticized other NATO countries for spending far too little on defense—a constant gripe of U.S. presidents, especially Dwight Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan.Trump’s associates readily criticized certain European countries for abandoning basic Western values, such as adopting free speech, abolishing secure national borders, and letting in gangsters and fanatical Jihadis who unleash terrorist attacks on innocent citizens. Trump also thinks all these are happening in the United States.The Russia–Ukraine war has caused rifts between Trump and other NATO members. He wants the war to end so that Washington can “pivot” to the Indo–Pacific to squarely face the “pacing threat” of communist China, which he, since his first term, has rightly regarded as America’s major adversary.So, almost simultaneously, the two major English-speaking countries, the United States and the UK, are extricating themselves from entanglements in Europe and reaching out to Asia. Their “leaving Europe to enter Asia” is going full circle from the time when Japan’s most famous 19th century reformist, Fukuzawa Yukichi, advocated the opposite, “leaving Asia to enter Europe” (1885), under very different circumstances.If U.S. Commodore Matthew Perry’s arrival in Tokugawa Japan in 1853 and World War II marked the first and second historic coming of America to Asia, respectively, then the “Trump pivot” may well be the third. It could add enormously to the prosperity in Indo–Pacific Ex-China, for two reasons. First, as the U.S.–China decoupling continues, much American money leaving China will go into other Indo–Pacific economies. Second, when greater American military might, coupled with increased defense spending and capabilities in East Asian countries, is realized under Trump’s pressures, it will be deployed to contain the Chinese regime and achieve greater regional stability, and new investment money will arrive with more confidence.But then what about Europe, which the United States and perhaps Britain are leaving behind? It will do fine, but in a previously unexpected way.This will be the scenario: Trump 2.0 will continue to goad Europe to pony up for its own defense, necessarily at the expense of its welfare state, climate policy, and open borders, and damage the transatlantic relationship if it must. Trump will be much maligned in the process.For example, a recent BBC article accused the U.S. president of “blow[ing] up the world order.” But that is sheer Eurocentrism, because Trump is merely resetting Washington’s relationship with Europe and Europe is not the whole world.In fact, there are good signs that Europe is reacting to Trump in a healthy way; for example, the newly elected German leader has decided that Germany must spend huge amounts in upgrading its military, notwithstanding that it necessarily will have to cut welfare spending and retune its growth model.Expectedly, when Europe is strong and wholesome again, Trump will be gone from the stage and his successors will be able to mend fences with all obstacles removed. At that point, the world will still be essentially bipolar: the open society camp versus the authoritarian-or-worse camp.There will be two main theaters where the conflict between the two camps will be played out. First is Asia, in which the United States—rid of its European baggage and in some kind of alliance with Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and Australia—will face off against the Chinese regime. The mightiest power on Earth will try to roll back and contain the most dangerous. Next is Europe, where a reformed and repowered European Union will take on Russia. A second-rate power will try to keep a third-rate one in check. It will be a much more rational conflict configuration and manageable division of labor for the West than it is now.Views expressed in this article are opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times or ZeroHedge.

Kenneth Merz, PhD, of Cleveland Clinic's Center for Computational Life Sciences, and a research team are testing quantum computing's abilities in chemistry through integrating machine learning and quantum circuits. Chemistry is one of the areas where quantum computing shows the most potential because of the technology's ability to predict an unlimited number of possible outcomes. To determine quantum computing's ability to perform complex chemical calculations, Dr. Merz and Hongni Jin, PhD, decided to test its ability to simulate proton affinity, a fundamental chemical process that is critical to life. Dr. Merz and Dr. Jin focused on using machine learning applications on quantum hardware. This is a critical advantage over other quantum research which relies on simulators to mimic a quantum computer's abilities. In this study, published in the Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, the team was able to demonstrate the capabilities of quantum machine learning by creating a

Psychologist Carl Jung believed in the “collective unconscious,” a universal mind all humanity is tapped into. In the context of the financial world, the stock market — as something ostensibly based on concrete numbers, but most of the time driven by instinctive hopes and fears — kind of works like that.It is, in other words, essentially a tracker of sentiment. Nowhere is this function clearer than in the discrepancy between stocks’ moves during regular trading hours (modest climbs), prior to U.S. President Donald Trump’s triumphant unveiling of his tariff plan, and extended trading (precipitous plunges), when investors had time to digest — and suffer indigestion from — the sheer weight of the White House’s heavy tariffs on countries across the globe.Trump teased leniency on tariffs days before revealing his cards. That quality of mercy was nowhere to be seen — the tariffs appear sweeping and severe. To call Trump’s tariff plan a seismic shift in the economic and financial world order might be an understatement. It could take time for price changes to filter into the economy. But the stock market, as the collective unconscious of investors, could register this shock in the coming days.What you need to know todayTariffs for allU.S. President Donald Trump announced Wednesday sweeping tariffs on more than 180 countries and territories. The plan imposes a 20% levy on the European Union, 46% on Vietnam, 32% on Taiwan and 34% on China — which comes on top of the 20% already existing — making the total tariff on Beijing 54%. There will also be a 10% baseline tariff on all U.S. imports. Get updates on ongoing tariff developments on CNBC’s live blog.China and EU reactChina’s Ministry of Commerce urged the U.S. to “immediately cancel” its unilateral tariff measures and vowed to take “resolute counter-measures” to safeguard its own rights and interests, according to a CNBC translation of a statement released Thursday. Likewise, the European Union is preparing more countermeasures against U.S. tariffs if negotiations fail, according to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Stock everywhere sinkU.S. stock futures plunged in extended trading Wednesday after Trump unveiled extensive tariffs. As of publication time, futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 2%, S&P 500 futures tumbled 2.7% and Nasdaq-100 futures slumped 3.52%. During regular trading, all three major indexes closed higher. Asia-Pacific markets followed Wall Street lower Thursday. Japan’s Nikkei 225 plummeted more than 3% and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index lost around 1.7%. Prices of gold, a safe haven asset, hit a fresh high.Tech stocks slumpApple shares sank 7% in late trading Wednesday and led a broader decline in tech stocks after Trump’s tariff announcement. Apple manufactures most devices in China. Nvidia, which produces new chips in Taiwan, fell 5.7%. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Wednesday the sell-off in the stock market is due more to a sharp pullback in the biggest technology stocks instead of White House trade policies.Tesla disappoints on deliveries, Chinese competitors sustain salesTesla on Wednesday reported 336,681 vehicle deliveries in the first quarter of 2025. That’s a 13% decline from a year ago, and is below the 360,000 and 370,000 deliveries expected by investors, according to StreetAccount.

Silksong, the long-awaited to sequel to 2017's Hollow Knight, will arrive later this year, according to a brief sizzle reel Nintendo shared during today's Switch 2 Direct. In fact, the snippet was so short you might have missed it if you blinked, and featured the same section of gameplay we first saw during the game's announcement trailer back in 2019. Of course this being Silksong we're talking about, I wouldn't count on the game's developer, Team Cherry, sticking to that date until we have the game in our hands. If you recall, back in 2022 there was speculation the game would arrive by June 12, 2023 after Microsoft included it in a Xbox Game Pass trailer and said all the titles featured in said clip would be available within 12 months. Well, June 12, 2023 came and went with no release of Silksong.

After months of anticipation and years of speculation, Nintendo is finally spilling all the beans about the Switch 2. In a Nintendo Direct presentation, the company is filling in questions we've had about the console since it was first officially revealed in a short teaser this past January.Switch 2 launch date and pricingWe finally know when the console will be available: June 5, 2025. It'll cost $450 at launch, and pre-orders start on April 9.Switch 2 hardwareThe Switch 2 console has the same thickness but has a much larger display — 7.9 inches at a 1080p resolution, versus the 6.2-inch 720p screen on the old console. And it runs at up to 120fps. It is an LCD display, rather than OLED, but it supports HDR at least. As expected, the new Joy-Con controllers attach magnetically and have much bigger SL and SR buttons for when you're playing on a single Joy-Con controller. The sticks are also bigger, and each Joy-Con can be used as a mouse on compatible games. The built-in stand looks much better than the ones on older Switch systems, and there are two USB-C ports on the console as well. Nintendo also highlighted 3D audio when using compatible headphones, and the speakers on the console itself should be a lot better as well. The console has 256GB of storage, far surpassing the 32GB on the original model. The Switch 2 dock outputs at up to 4K with compatible games and the dock has a built-in fan to keep things cool when running at higher resolutions.Switch 2 is using similar game cards to the original Switch, but Nintendo notes that they're faster; you'll have to use microSD Express cards for extra storage this time though. Standard microSD ones won't be compatible with the new hardware.A new Nintendo Switch 2 Pro controller will also be available with the C button to activate GameChat, and it also has GL and GR buttons on the back that you can assign to any specific actions. There's also a headphone jack, too.Voice and video chatThe first new feature Nintendo highlighted on its updated Joy-Con controllers was the C button. The C button lets you enter the new GameChat features. You can voice chat while playing using a built-in microphone, even when the console is docked. It's the first time that a Nintendo system has had voice chat, and you can also share your game screen with friends as you play as well. For example, in Mario Kart this gives you more of a feel like you're all playing connected to a TV even though you're remote, because you can see everything that your friends are doing as well. And the chat and screen-share features work even if you're all playing different games, so you can just get a group together to hang out while playing different titles. There's also a Switch 2 camera that enables video chat that'll show you on screen while you're playing. These features will require a Nintendo Switch Online subscription, but Nintendo will offer it for free to everyone until March 31, 2026.Mario Kart WorldAs expected, we're finally getting a new entry in the venerable Mario Kart series, Mario Kart World. It looks looks familiar while also showing off some wild new tricks, like skateboard-style grinds on rails and wall jumps. The courses also look much larger and wider than any we've ever seen before. For the first time, it looks like there's an open world connecting all the various courses, and weather and time of day will change.Nintendo also says that you can go off-course and drive "virtually everywhere." And fitting those huge tracks, the Grand Prix will have 24 competitors in one race. Overall, it's a massive update which feels appropriate — the last Mario Kart game arrived way back in 2014 for the Wii U and was updated for the original Switch. It'll be out the same day as the Switch 2, June 5.Other games coming to Switch 2Nintendo ran down a handful of other games coming to the Switch 2, including Eldin Ring: Tarnished Edition, a new title called Drag x Drive that uses the Switch 2 mouse controls in what looks like an extreme wheelchair sporting event, Hades II, Street Fighter 6, Split Fiction, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 +4, Hitman: World of Assassination and Daemon x Machina.Nintendo is also working on Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, which will be out this winter; it's being developed in with Koei Techmo games and will have the same combat-focused vibes as other Dynasty Warrior-style titles.From Software is also releasing a new game exclusively for the Switch 2 called The Duskbloods in 2026. It feels a lot like Bloodbourne at first glance.Perhaps the biggest first-party game to be revealed today besides Mario Kart World is a new 3D platformer starring Donkey Kong: Donkey Kong Bonanza. It definitely has similar vibes to 3D Mario adventures, but in a totally new context.There's a laundry list of games that were mentioned today; Nintendo has helpfully pulled them together in this press release.Finally, Nintendo has announced that the Switch Online service will host another classic console, the GameCube. The initial game library includes The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, F-Zero GX and SOULCALIBUR II. For the first time on Nintendo's classic consoles through the Switch Online service, GameCube games will run at higher resolutions than the original titles.Nintendo Switch 2 edition gamesIn addition to games expressly designed for the Switch 2, Nintendo will also be releasing "Switch 2 edition" for selected titles, like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Those titles will have improved resolutions and frame rates as well as new features that'll show up in a companion smartphone app. Nintendo didn't say how much these upgrades would cost yet.Kirby and the Forgotten Land is also getting a Switch 2 edition that adds an additional world to explore, while Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will have both a Switch and Switch 2 edition; the Switch 2 edition can run in 4K at 60fps or up to 120fps at a lower resolution.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/nintendo-switch-2-everything-announced-including-a-new-mario-kart-game-new-switch-features-and-more-133105264.html?src=rss

Nintendo has confirmed that it explored "a lot of ideas" for what to called the Switch 2 before landing on that name.

Nintendo decided against this, however, because it "didn't feel right to use the same naming convention as the Super NES."Continue Reading at GameSpot
From Software has announced a new IPFrom Software's new RPG, The Duskbloods, has been announced during the Nintendo Switch 2 broadcast as an exclusive Switch 2 game. In this gallery, we'll take a look at potential characters, weapons, mechanics, boss fights, and the game's setting and timeline via a series of images from the announcement trailer. While the game isn't out until 2026, and no narrow window within that year has been announced just yet, we can already analyze the trailer to find out plenty of information about the vampiric title from the Elden Ring developer. A scarred handOpening the trailer, a hand is shown carved with a symbol as a female figure grasps it while reciting, "I give you my blood. I give you my life. Turn, oh wheel, and transport him to a night of moonlight, to humanity's very dusk." It's unclear whether this is the process of converting a deceased human into the vampire-like creatures we see later in the trailer. A British looking environment Some scenes in The Duskbloods appear to be set in the UK, or London specifically, thanks to the appearance of clock towers that resemble Big Ben, and the city's skyline. Big Ben was constructed in 1859, giving us a glimpse into a potential timeline for the game. A train station in The DuskbloodsThe appearance of a train station and railway lines also adds more context to the game's timeline. Since the first steam railway became operational in 1804, the game might be set more recently than this. A church scene Multiple large, gothic churches and associated architecture are shown throughout the trailers, which fits aesthetically very well with the vampiric themes throughout. A silver-haired male character The identity of the silver-haired male character remains a mystery, since he doesn't participate in dialogue throughout the trailer. However, thanks to similarities between the opening scene and a later scene where he's surveying the city skyline, we know that this character is the same one that's deceased at the beginning of the trailer, with the scarred hand. The only female character seen in the trailer The only female character seen in the trailer still hides her face during all appearances. She dresses in a traditional Japanese-style robe with straw hat, which could also be seen as a samurai hat. Later in the trailer, she spins a blade at rapid frequency as she prepares to descend on the city. Jetpacks? A small creature clad in armor is seen wading through some water before launching a jetpack across a cavern. The functionality and appearance of these fueled engines suggests the game is far more recent than From Software's Elden Ring, which was set 5,000 years in the past. A younger, white-haired character This younger, white-haired character is seen multiple times throughout the trailer, including taking on a large, menacing-looking enemy that seems imposing enough to be suitable as a boss fight. This strange orb could be a boss This strange-looking orb with legs and an unsettling, menacing expression is large and imposing enough to be suitable as a potential boss in The Duskbloods. Neck-biting as a method of killing Adding further legitimacy to the vampire theories, the silver-haired character is seen biting on the neck of a creature, presumably a human, to kill them. Afterwards, he draws dark energy from the sky, which could indicate that characters grow stronger from feeding on blood. Drawing energy from the sky Following on from the previous image, this is how the character appears when he's drawing that dark energy from the skies. A strange frog-like enemyWhile this strange, frog-like enemy is not indicated as a boss, as no characters are seen fighting it, the odd expression on its face is strikingly similar to that of the orb-like boss from earlier in the trailer. We'd assume this sewer-dwelling amphibian is also a boss fight at some point in the game. A striking weapon While guns and blades are seen in the trailer, this striking image of a character wielding a forked weapon shows that there will be more traditional From Software melee weapons included in The Duskbloods. This particular weapon looks especially heavy to swing, so hopefully those heavy rolls from the Dark Souls series will come in handy here. Raising the dead Towards the end of the trailer, a character is seen raising their arms to the skies, reanimating corpses that litter the streets. Perhaps it'll be an option to control the undead to your advantage, forming armies of zombified allies. We can dream. A strange, scared creature Closing the trailer, after the game's 2026 release date announcement, is this strange dark creature. It looks warily from one eye as its fur glistens with golden markings, or carvings, that are of a similar style to the bloodied carving in the opening scene.

Despite decades of study, the process of star formation still holds many mysteries. Stars are the source of nearly all the universe's chemical elements, including carbon and oxygen, so understanding why and how they form -- or not -- is a crucial initial step in understanding how the universe works and the origins of just about everything, including life on Earth. At the heart of our Milky Way galaxy is the star-forming region Sagittarius C, which despite a wealth of raw material does not make as many stars as astronomers would expect. Two new studies have used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to investigate star formation in this extreme environment that is relatively near the supermassive black hole at the core of the Milky Way, at 200 light-years distance.

세계 경제는 이제 끊임없이 변화하는 가운데 극도로 정치화하고 있다.미국 정부의 예산 구조를 비유적으로 이르는 오래된 표현이 있다. ‘미국 정부는 사실상 군대를 갖춘 보험 회사에 불과하다’라는 말이다. 오늘날에도 이런 표현이 사용되고 있음에도 불구하고, 최근 CNBC의 ‘스쿼크 박스(Squawk Box)’ 프로그램에서 3 명의 앵커들은 관세와 백악관/정부기관의 개입 등 미국 정치에 대해 언급하지 않고는 경제를 이야기할 수 없다고 말했다.빅테크, 빅미디어, 빅농업, 빅제조업의 CEO와 기타 중요한 사회 구성원들은 “정부의 분노를 피하기 위해” 많은 시간과 관심을 쏟고 있다.또한 마케팅, 공급망, HR 등 최고 경영진의 조직 전체는 변화하는 정치적 흐름 때문에 의제와 운영에 혼란을 겪고 있다.이런 상황에서 IT와 CIO의 역할이 중요해진다. 정치화된 세상에서 CIO와 IT 직원은 그동안 아쉽다고 여겨졌던 IT의 비가시성을 강점으로 전환할 수 있다. 정치적 논란이나 당파적 갈등 없이 세상을 더 나은 곳으로 만드는 본연의 임무에 집중할 수 있다는 점이 이들의 가치를 높이고 있다.정치학자들은 정치 입문자들에게 “돼지와 씨름하지 마라. 당신만 진흙투성이가 되고 돼지만 화나게 할 뿐이다”라고 조언하곤 한다.필자는 15년 전 CIO닷컴 행사에서 IT 리더들에게 ‘경쟁을 불필요하게 만드는 IT 시스템’을 구상하고 배포하도록 촉구했다. 여전히 IT가 올바르게 활용된다면 지속 가능한 경쟁 우위의 원천이 될 수 있다고 믿는다.올바른 IT 활용CIO들은 모니터링과 적극적인 개입이 필요하다는 IT의 근본적인 진실을 알고 있다.정치권에서도 IT 리더에게 본보기가 될 만한 사례가 있다. 바로 미국 하원의원인 맥신 덱스터(민주당-오리건)다. 그의 본업은 중환자 전문의로, 핵심 업무는 환자가 아프거나 아프지 않은지 진단하고, 아프다면 어떤 의료적 조치가 필요한지 결정하는 일이다.CIO도 조직의 디지털 경험 전체에 대한 중환자 전문의 역할을 수행해야 한다. IT는 업무 중인 사람들의 제스처, 자세, 언어, 사고방식을 인류학적으로 평가해야 한다. 아프고 개입이 필요한 시스템이 있는가? 사람들이 ‘화를 내고 있는‘ 디지털 경험이 있는가?IT 건강 문제를 해결하는 가장 좋은 방법은 시스템을 사용하는 사람들과 시간을 보내는 것이다. CIO는 이해관계자들에게 주의를 기울여야 한다. 실제로 사용자의 목소리를 듣는 데 얼마나 많은 시간을 보내는가? 이해관계자들이 일상 생활에서 벌이는 전투를 이해하고 있는가?“오늘 하루 어땠어?”라는 강력한 질문에 디지털 관점을 더하면 상당한 성과를 얻을 수 있다. CIO는 일선 직원들이 IT를 설명할 때 사용하는 표현을 주기적으로 확인하고 직감에 따라 점검해야 한다.현대 대통령들은 전임자들보다 ‘국민’과 더 많이 소통하려고 한다. 커뮤니케이션 기술에 큰 발전이 있었을 뿐만 아니라 그 경제적 효율성도 높기 때문이다. 마찬가지로 현대의 CIO는 자신이 서비스하는 다양한 이해관계자들과 진정성 있는 대화를 나눠야 한다.이해관계자를 낯선 사람으로 여겨서는 안 되며, 그들에게 낯선 사람이 되어서도 안 된다. 이해관계자들을 위해 우리의 정체성을 명확히 인식할 필요가 있다.경제학자들이 생각해야 하는 방식으로 사고하기지난 20년 동안 경제학계의 영향력은 크게 감소했다. 샌프란시스코에서 열린 미국경제학회 연례 회의에서 패널들은 경제학자가 “사람들이 실제로 관심을 갖는 문제를 이해하기 위해 노력해야 한다“라고 결론지었다.또한 주목할 만한 예측 오류로 인해 경제학 분야 전체의 신뢰성이 점점 더 의문시되고 있다. 조지 W. 부시 대통령의 최고 고문이었던 하버드 경제학자 그렉 맨큐(Greg Mankiw)는 “우리는 항상 예측을 잘 못했다”라고 인정했다. 실적은 중요하다.IT 부서를 잠식하고 있지만 미처 파악되지 않은 문제는 IT 효율성에 대한 인식이다. 이해관계자들은 정말 IT 예산이 현명하게 사용되고 있다고 믿는가? 네덜란드 화가 빈센트 반 고흐는 정신 건강을 위해 생트르미드프로방스의 정신병원에 입원할 만큼 자기 인식이 뛰어났다. 우리는 IT 가치를 정직하게 평가할 용기가 있는가? IT에 정말 이렇게 많은 비용이 필요한가?현실 기반CIO가 미래를 위한 선구자 역할을 하려면, ‘시대를 앞서가는 혁신적 사고’와 현재 당면한 문제 해결 사이에서 균형을 잡아야 한다.이를 위해서는 미래에 대한 논의의 상당 부분을 차지하는 ‘AI가 IT의 만병통치약’식의 사고방식에서 벗어나야 한다.결코 실현되지 않을 수도 있는 IT 만병통치약에 빠져 방향을 잃기보다, CIO와 IT 팀은 조직의 모든 부서 및 고객과 긴밀히 소통하며 ‘다음에 무엇을 해야 하는가?’라는 가장 인간적인 질문에 명확한 답을 제시해야 한다[email protected]

Tony Bennett's daughters file new lawsuit against their brother over late father's estate
“Currency trader positioning is turning bearish on the dollar,” Joseph Brusuelas, chief economist at RSM U.S., said on Monday. Bank of America’s Athanasios Vamvakidis said the greenback is likely to rally in the near term, but this will “most likely be an opportunity to sell.” Market watchers told CNBC they see potential upside for the euro, the British pound and Australia and New Zealand’s currencies. The rollout of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs regime is dampening sentiment toward the dollar and prompting investors to look elsewhere for their foreign exchange (FX) trades, strategists told CNBC. The dollar index, which measures the value of the greenback against a basket of major rivals, was little changed on Wednesday morning. The U.S. currency began a steady rise in late 2024 that peaked in mid-January — however, the dollar index has steadily pared some of those gains in recent weeks.The dollar has historically been widely seen as a safe haven asset for investors, given its status as the world’s reserve currency and dominance in international borrowing, payments and trades. When the dollar strengthens, U.S. exports become more expensive, while imports become cheaper. The greenback’s value can also impact global monetary policy, capital flows and corporate earnings.“Currency trader positioning is turning bearish on the dollar and becoming more bullish on the currencies of major U.S. trading partners as the United States prepares to launch a multinational trade war,” said Joseph Brusuelas, chief economist at RSM U.S., in a research note published Monday.Euro expected to riseBrusuelas pointed to trades in the euro as a signal of “erosion of confidence in the dollar.”“From late October until the first week of March, the majority of euro positioning was long the dollar,” he said in Monday’s note. “But for three weeks now, net positioning is long the euro.”Jordan Rochester, head of FICC strategy and executive director at Mizuho Bank’s EMEA arm, told CNBC he held “a down then up view” on the euro against the dollar. He sees the euro falling to somewhere between $1.06 and $1.07 before climbing to $1.12 or higher by the end of the year.“I expect this market to price in ‘maximum pain’ once we know the details of the tariffs,” he said in an email, arguing that this presented an “opportunity to take the other side.”“Tariffs [are] unlikely to get worse once fully priced in and [the] EU and others [are likely] to respond with ... retaliatory tariffs of their own which will lead to a recovery later on,” he said. Athanasios Vamvakidis, global head and managing director of G10 FX strategy at Bank of America, told CNBC he saw downside ahead for the dollar, despite expecting tariffs to have an immediate positive impact on the greenback.“For the dollar we have been and we are still bearish for the year as a whole,” he said on a call. “We believe the market is already pricing selective tariffs, but it will get tariffs across the board.”He told CNBC that the dollar could rally this week in the immediate aftermath of tariffs coming into effect, but noted that this “most likely will be an opportunity to sell.”“Beyond the very short term, there are two channels that should lead to dollar weakness,” Vamvakidis explained. “First, when you have the U.S. against the rest of the world in a trade war scenario, then the U.S. eventually will suffer more because ... when you compare it with the rest of the world, the rest of the world is larger. Second, tariffs suggest stagflationary risks — and right now, the market is very concerned about such risks.”Like Brusuelas and Rochester, he predicted that the euro would eventually be boosted by Trump’s trade war. While the U.S. contends with a policy mix that will likely be negative for its currency, Europe is focusing on “growth friendly policies,” Vamvakidis said.“Germany announcing a massive fiscal stimulus, Europe announcing massive spending on defense, plans for structural reforms to focus on growth and competitiveness,” he said. “So far these are plans, but we didn’t even [have] such plans before, and coming from Germany, the economy with the weakest growth in the euro zone and the largest economy in the euro zone and the tightest fiscal policy in the euro zone, this is really a game changer.”Vamvakidis said his team sees the euro reaching $1.15 this year and $1.20 in 2026.Sterling bullsBank of America’s Vamvakidis also argued the British pound has the potential to rise as Trump’s tariffs regime comes into play, noting that the U.S. President has aimed tariff threats at the EU while hinting that Britain could be spared.“Also, there is positive seasonality for sterling in April,” he said. “So in the short term, we should see sterling doing relatively well. For the year as a whole, we also like sterling against the dollar. Against the euro it depends on the implementation of EU reforms.”In a note at the end of March, analysts at Maybank upwardly revised their forecasts for the British pound, saying they now see sterling hitting $1.26 by the end of the year before rising to $1.31 in early 2026. On Wednesday morning, the British currency was trading at around $1.29 against the U.S. dollar.“We ... turn more bullish on the GBP with its plans to increase defence spending, maintain fiscal discipline and easing stagflation risks,” they said. “We maintain our belief that the GBP will be more resilient on the basis that the UK as a services-oriented economy is less likely to be influenced by Trump trade policies. As a close ally of the US, it will probably also be spared from significant actions by the Trump administration. This is in spite of an external environment that remains highly uncertain and challenging.”Australia, New Zealand currencies could be boostedThe Maybank analysts also predicted upside for the New Zealand dollar, giving the currency a target of $0.58 against the greenback by the end of 2024 — a 2.1% rise from current levels.“A rounding bottom has formed for the NZDUSD which portends further recovery,” Maybank’s analysts said, adding that the outlook for the currency remained positive as New Zealand’s economy recovered and the pace of monetary easing was likely to slow.“Both Australia and New Zealand also have stronger balance sheets than most other Western countries — in particular much lower debt to GDP ratios,” Alex King, a former FX trader and founder of personal finance platform Generation Money, said via email.“This means they have much more headroom for potential stimulus measures of their own and [it’s] another factor making them both attractive places for investors, which helps strengthen their currencies.”He added that both countries’ economies were “much less connected to the trade war narrative.”“To combat the effect of tariffs, China is looking at stimulus measures to boost its own economy and this is seen as a positive for the economies of both Australia and New Zealand, both of which tend to run trade surpluses with China,” King told CNBC.

Russian Arctic LNG 2 Project Resumes Gas Processing By Charles Kennedy of Oilprice.comArctic LNG 2, the processing and export facility that was billed as Russia’s flagship LNG project, has gradually resumed gas processing after months of hiatus, Reuters reported on Tuesday, citing industry sources and satellite images.Arctic LNG 2 has been under U.S. and EU sanctions since last year, and the project hasn’t been able to sell any cargo because of the sanctions.The first production train at the plant was shut in early October over the project developers’ inability to secure buyers amid the Western sanctions on Arctic LNG 2, according to one of Reuters’ sources.The plant continues has now slowly resumed gas processing and keeps it at low rates as Russia expects what the Trump Administration would do with the sanctions.Russian LNG developer and exporter Novatek, the majority owner of Arctic LNG 2, is looking to rebuild relations with the U.S. with the help of lobbyists, sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters in December.Hit heavily by sanctions, Arctic LNG 2 was put on ice last year and Novatek has struggled to sell any cargo to a buyer.Located in the Gydan Peninsula, Arctic LNG 2 was considered key to Russia’s efforts to boost its global LNG market share from 8% to 20% by 2030-2035.But the project has come under intensifying sanctions from the United States, which have put off any buyers that were previously considering buying cargoes from Arctic LNG 2.The project has seen months of delays after the initial U.S. sanctions in November 2023 upended the company’s plans for production start-up and export timelines.In August 2024, the U.S. State Department intensified efforts to derail Arctic LNG 2 exports by targeting companies involved in the development of the project and vessels found to have loaded LNG from the facility.The U.S. designated multiple companies related to Arctic LNG 2 to further disrupt the project’s ability to produce and export LNG, as well as the project’s ability to procure critical LNG carriers.

The dread of something bad happening is usually more severe than the event itself.This could well be the case for U.S. President Donald Trump’s wide-ranging tariff plan. Even though Trump initially described it as “reciprocal tariffs,” implying that the U.S. would match other countries’ import levies, the White House is reportedly considering a 20% charge on most goods and services. The figure sounds high, but is dramatically lower than, for instance, India’s tariff on auto imports — which can go up to 70%, according to Times of India.Investors’ worries were slightly assuaged by the news, pushing up stocks. It is, however, too early to let down your guard. Concrete details of Trump’s plans are still unclear. Uncertainty is a bargaining chip for Trump; he could unleash a much more brutal tariff regime than expected.Other times, experiencing something bad could be worse than dreading it.What you need to know todayT-1 to tariffsU.S. President Donald Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” will be announced Wednesday and “be effective immediately,” press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Tuesday.

구글이 지메일에 새로운 종단간 암호화(E2EE) 기능을 도입했다. 사용자는 이제 구글조차 읽지 못하게 암호화된 이메일을 다른 지메일 사용자에게 보낼 수 있다. 구글은 올해 말까지 이 기능을 확장해 모든 사용자에게 암호화된 이메일을 보낼 수 있도록 할 예정이다.E2EE는 이메일 서버 간 전송 중 암호화(TLS)나 구글 데이터센터에 저장돼 있는 동안의 암호화 기능과는 다르다. E2EE는 사용자가 의도한 수신자만 해독하고 읽을 수 있는 방식으로 메시지를 암호화하는 방식이다.E2EE 작동 방식일반적으로 이메일용 E2EE는 S/MIME(보안/다목적 인터넷 메일 확장)를 통해 구현된다. 이는 공개 키 암호화를 사용해 메시지에 서명하고 암호화하는 공개 프로토콜 및 표준이다. 그러나 S/MIME 구현은 간단하지 않으며, 보통 모든 사용자에 대한 디지털 인증서 획득 및 관리가 필요하다. 또한 S/MIME은 설정된 수신자와만 작동한다.현재 시중에는 추가 소프트웨어, 브라우저 확장 프로그램 또는 웹 포털 배포가 포함된 종단간 암호화 전용 솔루션이 출시돼 있다. 정부 기관을 비롯한 특정 규제 산업 분야의 조직은 일반적으로 민감한 이메일에 대해 E2EE 솔루션을 설정하는 번거로움을 감수하지만, 대부분의 다른 조직은 사용성 문제로 인해 이를 피하고 있다.구글 워크스페이스의 선임 제품 관리자인 조니 버크는 “이런 격차와 과제가 수십 년 동안 IT 팀과 사용자 모두에게 실질적인 마찰을 일으켜 왔다. 조직은 이런 문제를 매우 복잡하고 비용이 많이 드는 IT 관리를 통해 해결하거나 회사 외부 기관과의 통신을 최소화하는 방식으로 해결한다. 둘 다 만족스러운 옵션이 아니다”라고 말했다.구글의 새로운 이메일 암호화 모델구글은 복잡한 사용자 인증서 관리나 메시지 복호화를 위한 외부 조직과의 키 교환이 더 이상 필요하지 않은 새로운 모델을 개발했다.구글의 새로운 E2EE 지메일 구현은 기존 구글 워크스페이스의 클라이언트 측 암호화(CSE) 기능에 의존한다. 이 기능을 통해 고객은 자체 암호화 키를 사용해 파일과 이메일을 클라이언트 측에서 암호화한 후 구글 서버에 저장할 수 있다. 또한 조직은 암호화 키에 대한 액세스 권한을 부여하는 데 사용되는 ID 제공업체와 키를 저장하는 데 사용되는 타사 키 관리 서비스를 제어할 수 있다.E2EE 기능은 현재 베타 버전으로 제공되며, 고객이 일반 지메일 메시지 작성 웹 인터페이스에서 암호화 여부를 선택할 수 있다. 아직까진 동일 조직 내 지메일 사용자 간에만 작동하지만, 앞으로 몇 주 내에 기업 및 개인 계정을 포함한 모든 지메일 수신자에게 활성화될 예정이다.올해 말에 이 기능이 완전히 구현되면, E2EE가 활성화된 워크스페이스 사용자는 모든 외부 이메일 사용자에게 암호화된 메시지를 보낼 수 있게 된다. 수신자는 메시지 대신 링크를 받게 되며, 이를 클릭하면 제한된 버전의 지메일로 이동하여 조직이 선택한 ID 제공업체로 인증한 후 복호화된 메시지를 볼 수 있다. 외부 사용자는 제한된 지메일 인터페이스 내에서 답장할 수도 있다.제한된 보기 기능으로 더 많은 제어 가능기본적으로 지메일 사용자는 제한된 인터페이스를 거칠 필요가 없으며, 의도한 수신자인 경우 이메일이 받은 편지함에 도착하면 자동으로 복호화된다. 그러나 관리자는 민감한 통신이 타사 서버나 장치에 로컬로 다운로드되지 않도록 지메일 사용자를 포함한 모든 사용자에게 제한된 보기 기능을 적용하도록 선택할 수 있다.이 옵션은 승인된 계정 및 ID 제공업체로 인증이 필요하기 때문에 조직은 쉽게 액세스를 취소하고 추가 보안 정책을 적용할 수 있다. 구글은 구글 드라이브에 저장된 공유 문서와 유사한 방식이라고 설명했다.구글 워크스페이스의 제품 관리자 줄리앙 뒤플랑은 “구조적 차원에서 이 접근 방식은 더 포괄적인 암호화 보호 기능을 제공한다. 누구에게 메시지를 보내거나 어떤 이메일을 사용하든 상관없이 메시지는 암호화되며, 사용자만이 완전한 제어권을 갖는다. 키 세트는 하나뿐이며, 사용자만 이를 갖고 있다”라고 언급했다[email protected]

Telos Alliance (Booth N721) will showcase several new AI-driven features to its Minnetonka Audio AudioTools Server file-based audio automation platform at the 2025 NAB Show in Las Vegas.The new features are part of a major software update for AudioTools Server, ATS V7, which is scheduled for release later this year. These enhancements serve as examples of how the creative use of AI can improve the viewing experience for the television and media audience and take advantage of the personalization features of Next Generation Audio.ATS V7 will introduce the ability to measure dialog intelligibility, one of the top audio-related complaints, regardless of how viewers receive or view content. If the measurements reveal viewers will struggle to understand the dialog easily, it can be extracted and processed for increased intelligibility. The ability to isolate dialog will also provide the opportunity for more accurate loudness measurements.ATS V7 will also offer AI-driven language detection. If the dialog in the final audio presentation is in a language other than expected, it can flag the issue and alert the operator. In situations where different language tracks are present on different channel pairs, ATS V.7 can identify and repair the problem, ensuring a higher level of quality control."Our Minnetonka Audio AudioTools Server platform is valued by television and media professionals around the world for automating complex audio workflows, saving time and money for broadcasters while ensuring viewers are provided with the best possible experience,” says Costa Nikols, Telos Alliance Executive Strategy Advisor for Media and Entertainment. “When integrated or combined with the existing suite of ATS features, these new capabilities unlock an entirely new level of efficiency in content creation and delivery, not just for Next Generation Audio, but for all media consumed worldwide today.”

Unlike animals, plants do not possess an adaptive immune system with antibodies or T cells to fight viral infections. Instead, they rely on the RNA silencing system, which serves as their innate immune defense by recognizing and degrading viral RNA. In turn, viruses have evolved viral suppressors to inhibit the RNA silencing pathway, thus facilitating the successful infection of the host plant.

The S&P 500 clawed back earlier losses on Monday to trade slightly higher, as traders nervously looked ahead to President Donald Trump’s tariff plans.The broad market index was last up 0.07% after falling as much as 1.7%, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.7%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 295 points, or 0.7%. Earlier in the day, the S&P 500 traded 10% below its record.Tech giants Nvidia and Meta Platforms fell 3% and 1%, respectively. Tesla also lost 3%. Tech stocks have struggled to recapture their meteoric rise from last year that was spurred by rising artificial intelligence sentiment. AI darling Nvidia, for example, is now more than 30% off of its 52-week high. Investors seeking safety were pushing some Dow components like Coca-Cola and Walmart higher.Trump said Sunday that his plan for “reciprocal tariffs” — expected to be unveiled Wednesday — will target “all countries,” rejecting the notion that the upcoming levies will be narrower and more targeted. In fact, The Wall Street Journal reported the president had in recent days pushed his advisors to get more aggressive when it comes to tariffs.“We continue to trade with the backdrop of tariff uncertainty and a shroud of secrecy about what may come next,” said Jay Woods, chief global strategist at Freedom Capital Markets. “As a result, investors sell first and wait. It has all the makings of a panic sell-off where a snap back rally on the horizon.”Trump’s rhetoric as “liberation day” approaches has culminated in a renewed sense of worry that the tariffs will significantly slow the economy, and could perhaps even be a catalyst for a recession. Economists polled in the CNBC Rapid Update survey points to first-quarter economic expansion of just 0.3%, well below the 2.3% growth seen in the fourth quarter. “[I]t’s time for reciprocity, and it’s time for a president to take historic change to do what’s right for the American people, and that’s going to take place on Wednesday,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday. The broad market index is more than 9% below a record set in February. It also hit its lowest level since September on Monday. The tech-heavy Nasdaq also reached levels not seen since September and is 15% below its all-time high set in December.Monday marks the final day of what has been a tumultuous month and quarter for Wall Street. The S&P 500 dipped into correction territory in March after hitting a record in February.The S&P 500 is down 6.3% for the month, on pace for its biggest one-month slide since September 2022, when it dropped 9.3%. The Nasdaq has lost 8% in March, while the Dow has fallen 5%.For the quarter, the S&P 500 was down 5%. That puts it on pace to snap a five-quarter winning streak. The Nasdaq has lost 10.9% this quarter, which would mark its biggest quarterly pullback since a 22.4% plunge in the second quarter of 2022. The Dow has shed 1.6% in the first three months of 2025.More market choppiness ahead, warns Truist’s LernerThere may be some near-term relief for markets this week, but Keith Lerner of Truist doesn’t think it will last. “While it’s possible markets may get some relief as investors gain some clarity on the ‘rules of engagement’ around tariffs and ‘retest the recent low,’ our view is the near term is set to remain choppy and markets are unlikely to return to new highs over the near term,” the firm’s co-chief investment officer wrote. The S&P 500 touched its lowest level since September on Monday before rebounding.— Fred ImbertBarclays downgrades Canada GooseBarclays says a challenging macro backdrop and intensifying competition will pressure Canada Goose.The firm lowered its rating on the winter apparel stock to underweight from equal weight in a research note on Monday. It also slashed its price target to $8 per share from $10, implying 2.9% downside potential from Friday’s close.The company’s high exposure to production in Canada makes it particularly vulnerable to tariff risks, according to analyst Adrienne Yih.“While the recent pullback in valuation and share price suggests that GOOS’s stock may already reflect these concerns, we see GOOS trading within a range in the near term with potential risk to estimates should competitive pressures remain high and tariff risks intensify,” wrote Yih.Shares fell more than 6% Monday, pulling the stock down nearly 23% in 2025.— Hakyung KimNewsmax stock spikes 500% in first-ever trading dayBrendan McDermid | ReutersScreens display the trading information for Newsmax Inc. during the company’s IPO on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange on March 31, 2025.Conservative cable news network Newsmax soared more than 500% in its first day of trading, after going public on the New York Stock Exchange on Monday.The stock was last trading around $66 per share. Newsmax opened at $14 per share after pricing at $10 per share.Newsmax first announced its plans for an initial public offering last September, with its IPO coming at a time of increasing uncertainty for the traditional cable news industry. On the other hand, Newsmax has consistently seen its ratings rise after President Trump was voted back into office for his second term.“I think there was a demand for more competition against Fox,” Newsmax CEO and founder Christopher Ruddy told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Monday. “I think it’s a pretty big achievement for a 10-year-old, new cable company.”— Lillian Rizzo, Lisa Kailai HanStocks making the biggest moves midday MondayBrendan McDermid | ReutersA screen displays the company logo for CoreWeave, Inc., Nvidia-backed cloud services provider, during the company’s IPO at the Nasdaq Market in New York City on March 28, 2025.Check out the companies making headlines in midday trading:CoreWeave — Shares of the cloud provider tumbled more than 9% in its second trading session since going public.

The Wall Street firm cited global macro pressure, increasing competition and the potential effects of tariff exposure as reasons for the downgrade.Moderna — The biotechnology company tumbled 8% following the resignation of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s top vaccine regulator Peter Marks. His departure, which he said was based on “misinformation and lies” around immunization, has caused concerns over whether the Trump administration will swiftly approve and promote critical vaccines.

He also likes the company’s balance sheet and cash flow and said valuation is reasonable.“We believe that consumption of services will continue to stabilize and improve, the Trump Administration favors IVF, and election-related economic uncertainty is now behind us,” Larson wrote. “We believe that macro factors such as the labor market and inflation, are important drivers of the use of PGNY, and we believe that trends are improving.”His $28 price target implies 28% upside from Friday’s close.

Former U.S. President Joe Biden had blocked Nippon’s bid for U.S. Steel in early January, citing national security concerns.Still, BMO analyst Katja Jancic believes the stock’s valuation is running high and the uncertainty tied to the deal is “too great at this point to maintain an outperform recommendation.”“The current share price is nearing fair fundamental value,” Jancic said in a note to clients. “We recognize that Nippon/US Steel transaction remains a possibility given ongoing conversation with the government, but in our view significant uncertainty remains as President Trump has been supportive of Nippon investing in US Steel but has spoken against full ownership.”— Pia SinghGoldman sees Trump tariffs driving inflation higherBrandon Bell | Getty ImagesA customer shops for produce at an H-E-B grocery store in Austin, Texas, on Feb. 12, 2025.Goldman Sachs thinks tariffs from President Trump could put even more upward pressure on prices, making for an even gloomier economic outlook.

Leeds United’s history of dark weirdness lends credence to the idea that ‘club DNA’ is real, even if the reality may be more mundaneSign up for Soccer with Jonathan Wilson hereA month ago, Leeds United were merrily on top of the Championship. They had just beaten Sunderland with two late goals and Sheffield United with three. They had gone 16 games unbeaten and were playing with authority and conviction. More than that, they seemed to have the deepest squad in the Championship. The Sunderland game had turned when they had brought on Willy Gnonto and Largie Ramazani; nobody else in the division could bring that sort of quality off the bench.Since then they’ve won one of five games and slipped to second.

Levoit's Core 400S air purifier is down to $190 from its usual $220 price, thanks to the Amazon Spring Sale. While it’s not the lowest price we’ve seen — the air purifier briefly hit $177 last year — it’s still a solid discount on one of the most convenient air purifiers for large spaces. Just clip the $30 on-page coupon to get the discount. This deal is part of a larger Levoit sale during the Spring Sale that includes other air purifiers, humidifiers and more. We’ve featured Levoit in our list of the best air purifiers for its strong performance and smart features. The Core 400S can cover rooms up to 1,980 square feet using a three-stage filtration system to capture allergens, dust, pet dander and smoke. It also includes a smart sensor that adjusts fan speed based on air quality, so you’re not running it at full blast when you don’t need to. One of the Levoit Core 400S’ biggest selling points is its low noise output, which makes it a good fit for bedrooms or home offices. If you need to knuckle down and get some work done without distraction whilst keeping your room’s air clean and fresh, even at higher speeds, it stays relatively quiet compared to bulkier purifiers. It also supports smart controls via the VeSync app, allowing you to tweak settings, set schedules or monitor air quality from your phone. If you have a smart home ecosystem in place, you can connect the purifier to third-party voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant — an added layer of convenience that allows you to control the Core 400S with simple voice commands. Its 360-degree filtration system uses activated carbon to remove gases and odors, while an efficient middle filter captures 99.97 percent of pollutants as small as 0.3 microns. The built-in air quality sensor continuously monitors pollution levels, automatically adjusting performance as needed. You can track real-time air quality data on the LCD screen or through the VeSync app, which is handy (and interesting) to have access to at all times. At night, sleep mode keeps things extra quiet and subtle, dimming the display and operating at the lowest settings — or you can turn off the display completely for total darkness. If you’ve been looking for an air purifier that can handle larger spaces without taking up too much room, this deal is worth considering, saving you over $30 on its usual price thanks to the Amazon Spring Sale.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/deals/one-of-our-favorite-air-purifiers-is-still-down-to-a-near-record-low-price-for-the-amazon-spring-sale-133052953.html?src=rss

President Donald Trump has managed, within a few short months, to force a number of traditionally powerful "elite institutions" to capitulate to his personal demands in a sort of "Great Grovel" — and it turns out there is a method to how Trump has accomplished all this, said Politico reporters in an analysis published on Monday.From getting tech billionaires that long criticized him to donate to his inaugural fund, to forcing law firms that represented anti-Trump clients to change their policies, to getting news networks to settle MAGA lawsuits experts dismissed as frivolous, to getting prestigious universities that hosted protests he didn't like to crack down on students, Trump has accomplished obedience from a number of groups that frustrated him in his last term.This obedience hasn't been universal — many of these institutions are fighting back and there is internal fury within the organizations that capitulated — but it's no accident Trump is having more luck this time around, Politico staff argued.ALSO READ: 'Scared and sick': Trump voters struggle to deal with tariff reality set to go into effectPart of it is that these institutions, being large and dependent on federal funding, have many vulnerabilities for Trump to exploit, and part of it is that their higher-ups, despite disagreement from the rank and file, hope that by buying off Trump's anger they can return to business as usual. But there's also a deeper reason why these organizations haven't been able to mount effective resistance: Trump is deliberately going after them one at a time."While Trump enjoys a wide array of support, his targets typically have found themselves alone and isolated," said the report. "There has been no effective effort so far by universities to work in concert to halt Trump’s actions at Columbia or other campuses. Kicking the Associated Press out of the White House pool prompted howls by other reporters, but most news organizations basically kept on with their ordinary business. Major law firms haven’t released a joint statement condemning Trump’s moves against their industry colleagues."The result, said one person who works at Disney, is “There’s a giant collective action problem because everybody’s looking out for number one.”And Mary Spooner, a former attorney with Paul Weiss, had a similar assessment: “If law firms and businesses and others within the private sector choose not to stand up and front a resistance to this power that [Trump] is claiming, but which the Constitution does not give him, then he will have that power. But it becomes much, much harder to resist when individual organizations and institutions and corporations are forced to resist alone.”

Traders Are Liberating Themselves From Their Stock Holdings By Bas van Geffen, CFA, Senior Macro Strategist at RabobankThe United States’ ‘Liberation Day’ is just around the corner, but President Trump’s trade advisers are still rushing to finalize the set of reciprocal tariffs that the US president is so keen to announce. Last week, Trump seemed to suggest that his reciprocal tariffs could be lower and less extensive than he had flagged before. However, perhaps that was everyone misinterpreting the president’s words.Over the weekend, Trump has reportedly complained to his staff that the tariffs should be higher and more extensive. Yesterday, Trump more or less confirmed this to the press, stating that his tariff announcement will include all countries, and not just the 10 or 15 with the biggest trade surplus versus the US. And so, a 20% universal tariff might be back on the table as one of the options.And if anyone still thought that the inflationary effects might rein Trump in, think again. Referring to the recent introduction of tariffs on cars and car parts, the president explicitly stated that “he couldn’t care less” if this causes car prices to go up – refuting earlier reports that Trump had convened carmakers to warn them against raising prices. In fact, he’d welcome it if this means that people will start buying more American-made cars again. So, as the Trump administration prepares to “liberate” the country, traders are looking to liberate themselves from their equity holdings. The Nikkei 225 started the trading week with a 4% loss, and European equity markets open lower as well.Trump intends to liberate the US, but his belligerence is also waking other leaders from their slumber. ECB President Lagarde said this morning that tariffs are a chance for Europe to show its own independence. That may require a vastly different Europe though. Guy Verhofstadt, former prime minister of Belgium and Member of the European Parliament, summarized it as follows: “To do this, 27 Commissioners, 27 Armies, 27 vetos, no single capital market, 3 Presidents, no single person to call in Europe... doesn’t make sense anymore! Europe must be reimagined.”He may have a point, but that is probably still a step too far for many Europeans. Although the European Commission senses the urgency of a joint approach in areas like defense, the execution is so far being left to the national governments. Even issues like joint EU borrowing are still a no-go for several member states. And that could be detrimental to the plans.Germany has been remarkably quick to embrace the need for higher defense spending. But that may thwart efforts elsewhere in Europe. The expected German issuance has not just pushed Bund yields higher; it has also increased the funding costs for other European nations. Countries with a high debt ratio, like Portugal, were already reluctant to spend more, because higher deficits may put their finances on an unsustainable path again. Higher interest rates only increase these concerns.And EU countermeasures to Trump’s Liberation Day may further complicate the continent’s efforts. Brussels has all the tools to respond to US tariffs. And the tone of EU trade officials has hardened. However, if the European Union ‘demonstrates its independence’ by retaliating against any US tariffs, rising costs will only make it more difficult to achieve actual independence from the US. If Europe still gets that time in such a situation: Trump has demonstrated he is willing to use political and military means if the economic ones don’t work. Is Europe willing to risk losing the US security umbrella before it can rebuild its own? Tyler DurdenMon, 03/31/2025 - 10:45

It was recently reported that a movie based on Split Fiction could happen, but game director Josef Fares isn't holding out hope that it actually gets made. In Hollywood, nothing is ever certain, and that's something that Fares firmly believes."I believe it when I see it, because nothing has happened yet," Fares told Variety. "Look, here's the thing--it would be nice if it happened, but again, I believe it when I see it. Sometimes there's a lot of talks, but nothing happens. So we will see."To be sure, no Split Fiction movie has even been announced. Variety reported, citing anonymous sources, that Story Kitchen won a "bidding war" for the rights to make a Split Fiction movie. Importantly, if that's true, what's happened is that the rights to a potential Split Fiction movie were sold. This doesn't necessarily mean a Split Fiction movie will happen soon, or ever.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The Nintendo Switch 2 will arrive in 2025, over eight years after its predecessor. Nintendo officially revealed the successor to its best-selling home console in a brief trailer on January 16. Now it's time for the other shoe to drop: A special Nintendo Direct streaming on YouTube at 9AM ET on April 2 is expected to reveal the price, release date and pre-order details — and maybe even show off some new games, too. Thanks to the January teaser trailer, we already know quite a lot about Nintendo's new console, however. The Switch 2 looks functionally very similar to the original system, albeit with a larger display, magnetic Joy-Cons and a sleeker design. The company also reaffirmed that the upcoming console will be backwards compatible with Switch games. As we continue counting down the hours until Nintendo's big Wednesday reveal, Switch 2 anticipation is appearing in unusual places. Take the Seattle Mariners' jerseys this year — Nintendo and the MLB team announced they'll have a Nintendo logo on the sleeve of the home jersey and a Switch 2 logo on the away jersey. Looking to catch up on everything we know — or think we know — about the Switch 2? Read on. The Nintendo Switch 2 was announced on January 16The rumor mill had heavily suggested that Nintendo would pull back the curtain on the Switch 2 on January 16, and that turned out to be the case. The company hasn't changed the core form factor. It's a portable console with detachable Joy-Cons. The Switch 2 can be placed in a dock for big-screen gaming. There are some significant differences from the original console, however.The most obvious one is that the next-gen Joy-Cons will no longer slide into place mechanically. Instead, they appear to attach to the main unit magnetically. There is a small connector that's likely used to charge the controllers. It's unclear at this point if Joy-Cons from the original system will be compatible with the Switch 2.One other big (and very welcome) change is the addition of a second USB-C port on the top of the device. That should make it much easier to plug in accessories while the Switch 2 is docked. FCC filings suggest that you'll be able to charge the console using either USB-C port, which is another nice quality-of-life change.It's great to see that Nintendo has kept the headphone jack as well. Let's just hope that Bluetooth headphone support is live from the jump this time and Nintendo doesn't leave everyone waiting four years for that feature.The kickstand is getting an upgrade. As with the Switch OLED, it spans the length of the console this time around. But, according to the reveal trailer, this one looks fully adjustable, so you can tweak the viewing angle to one that works for you. There are still a great many unknowns regarding the upcoming console. We don't really know the specs yet, or what type of display it uses. We also don't know anything about battery life, the UI or launch games. We'll surely learn a whole lot on April 2. When will the Nintendo Switch 2 come out?2025. That's all we know for sure at this point. It's highly unlikely that Nintendo will release the console before the dedicated Direct on April 2, and not only because that's at the start of Nintendo's next financial year. Accessory manufacturer Genki, which had been a major source of leaks before Nintendo's January reveal, claimed the console would be released in April. Other reports have pegged June as the release window, as have several analysts. In any case, we should learn the release date during the April 2 Direct. When can I pre-order the Nintendo Switch 2?As with the release date, we expect clarity on this during or after the April 2 presentation. A Best Buy Canada post spotted on Reddit (since deleted, but archived) states that pre-orders will open on that day, but that has yet to confirmed. When can I try the Nintendo Switch 2?Nintendo is planning a worldwide roadshow to let gamers go hands-on with the console. These events start in New York and Paris on April 4-6, with others taking place throughout the following two months. That lends credence to some suggestions that Nintendo will release the Switch 2 in June. Ticket registration for many of the Nintendo Switch 2 Experience events has closed, but waitlists are available. However, given that Nintendo is taking a first come, first served approach, your chances of attending the roadshow if you don't already have a ticket (or unless you signed up for the waitlist immediately) seem very small at this point.The full list of Nintendo Switch 2 Experience dates is as follows:North America:New York, April 4-6, 2025Los Angeles, April 11-13, 2025Dallas, April 25-27, 2025Toronto, April 25-27, 2025Europe:Paris, April 4-6, 2025London, April 11-13, 2025Milan, April 25-27, 2025Berlin, April 25-27, 2025Madrid, May 9-11, 2025Amsterdam, May 9-11, 2025Oceania:Melbourne, May 10-11, 2025Asia:Tokyo (Makuhari), April 26-27, 2025Seoul, May 31-June 1, 2025Hong Kong, To be announcedTaipei, To be announcedWill the Nintendo Switch 2 have some weirdness? Everything we've seen and so far about this console has been fairly, well, traditional. It looks like the original Switch, but better. That's awesome, but will there be any of that unpredictable Nintendo magic? Maybe! There are two puzzling additions that folks can't make hide nor hair of. Genki, the accessories manufacturer, just published a landing page for their Nintendo Switch 2 accessories. This landing page features a video that includes a very detailed look at a Switch 2 mockup. pic.twitter.com/Db7RSk4YlQ— Bob Wulff (@BobWulff) January 8, 2025 Keen eyes will have noticed a new button on the bottom of the right Joy-Con. Promotional images for a new app called Nintendo Today!, which the company says will provide users with daily news updates about things like games and the Switch 2, confirmed that it is a C button. However, it is not yet clear what this button does. Could it initiate voice chat during gameplay? Could it calibrate the controllers? Could it create a room-sized hologram of Bowser in your living room? We'll have to wait and see.Now onto the updated Joy-Cons. There appears to be a new sensor on the connecting side of each controller. It looks a whole lot like an optical sensor, which is what a computer mouse uses. This has led to speculation that players will be able to flip the Joy-Con over and use it like a mouse. Of note: the trailer shows the Joy-Cons moving along a flat surface, connector side down and looking suspiciously like a mouse.But why would anyone even want this? We can think of three words. New Mario Paint.Genki reveal isnt a mockup, its straight up just the Switch 2, optical sensor is literally flashing in this shot @Stealth40k #Switch2 pic.twitter.com/COeLsonqMd— Ash (@Ashinarii) January 8, 2025 Mouse control isn’t the only “too strange for any company but Nintendo” rumor floating around. A patent filed by the company suggests you can swap the Switch 2’s Joy-Cons, snapping them onto either side of the console. That would align with the magnetic Joy-Con attachment scheme.But much like the weird mouse rumors, it doesn’t necessarily align with, well, any logical reason for why you’d want to do that. The patent suggests it could allow for more user choice in where the headphone jack is. But since it’s Nintendo, the company that brought us Labo cardboard peripherals and the Game Boy Advance e-reader attachment, we have to wonder if there are... quirkier designs at hand.Is the Nintendo Switch 2 backwards compatible?The company confirmed in November 2024 that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be backwards compatible. It will also feature access to Nintendo Online, so users will be able to play all of those old retro titles. In the initial Nintendo Switch 2 press release, Nintendo reiterated that physical and digital Switch games will work on the new system. However, it noted that "certain Nintendo Switch games may not be supported on or fully compatible with Nintendo Switch 2." More details about which games those are will be revealed later.During a Nintendo Direct on March 27, the company revealed a new system for loaning digital Switch games out to friends and family members. Virtual Game Cards are designed to make it easier to start a game on one console and continue on another as well. Although Nintendo's approach to this is not as simple as it perhaps should be, Virtual Game Cards will also be available on the Switch 2.Will old games be enhanced in any way? The original Switch has, to put it mildly, struggled to run some of the late-generation software that's come down the pike. Could these games be enhanced to take advantage of the increased horsepower of the Switch 2? We have no idea. We also don't know if any of these releases will receive graphical upgrades, perhaps taking advantage of upscaling tech. What will the cartridges taste like?You may remember that the original Switch cartridges taste absolutely awful. This was on purpose, to discourage folks from putting the games in their mouth. Will the successor follow suit and continue to dip cartridges in a foul-tasting bitter coating? Only time will tell. What about specs?The rumors regarding specs are all over the place, so it’s tough to pin down. We know one thing for sure: It’ll be more powerful than the ancient Switch hardware, which was already antiquated back in 2017. One analyst allegedly got a hold of a spec sheet from the Korean United Daily News that said the Switch 2 would boast an eight-core Cortex-A78AE processor, 8GB of RAM and 64GB of internal eMMC storage. This tracks, as these specs are about as underpowered now as the original Switch was in 2017. However, some reports do indicate that the console will include 12GB of RAM. Another source suggests that the eight-core CPU will be packaged inside an NVIDIA-produced Tegra239 SoC (system on a chip). Given the current Switch runs on an NVIDIA chip, that makes a lot of sense. The CPU will be more powerful, but it's the Switch 2's new GPU that will be a major differentiator. It's all-but-confirmed that the Switch 2 will support DLSS, NVIDIA's "deep learning supersampling" upscaling tech, which would allow the console to render games at a low resolution internally while outputting a high-resolution image. (Fun fact: We actually wrote about how perfect DLSS was for the Nintendo Switch 2 when the technology was announced alongside the RTX 20 series back in 2018.)There are still questions about the Switch 2 and DLSS: Will the system support newer DLSS features like frame generation? Will existing games be automatically tidied up by NVIDIA's algorithm? Regardless of the exact implementation, DLSS upscaling will be a huge leap over the rudimentary techniques available to Nintendo Switch developers.As for the display, there are many conflicting rumors. Early reports from solid sources suggested the Switch 2 would have an 8-inch LCD screen. The Switch 2's display certainly looks larger than that of the original Switch in a side-by-side comparison in the reveal trailer. Some folks have worried that the Switch follow-up may actually be too big, especially for kids. Certain analysts have suggested this would be an OLED screen, while others have said it would be a Mini-LED display. A Mini-LED display is basically an LCD display that has a backlight made of (surprise!) mini-LEDs rather than edge lighting. This allows for local dimming, making the blacks more black. We're hedging our bets here. We think it’ll be a standard LCD, to cut costs, with an OLED or Mini-LED model coming later down the line. However, Mini-LED screens are slightly cheaper than OLED displays, so that’s certainly a possibility at launch.As for resolution, recent reporting suggests that the console will output 1080p in handheld and 4K when docked. That's much better than the OG Switch. More tenuous “leaks” have intimated that the Switch 2 could also support a faster microSD card standard known as microSD Express. This allows for significantly faster transfer rates than the common UHS-I cards supported by the Switch today. It’s technically been around for several years, but we’ve only recently started to see microSD cards that take advantage of the spec hit the market.We actually tested one of them from SanDisk for our microSD card buying guide and found it could reach sequential read speeds up to around 900 MB/s. With the current Switch, microSD transfer speeds top out closer to 100 MB/s.So, in theory, all of this could bring a sizable boost in load times and general storage performance for the Switch 2 (though it’s still not likely to be on par with the SSDs in the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S). But again, these rumors are far from concrete. It’s also worth noting that microSD Express cards cost significantly more than what we usually see today — the SanDisk card we tested, for instance, starts at $45 for just 128GB of storage.Recently-unearthed FCC filings also indicate that the console will support Wi-Fi 6 and NFC. The latter indicates that the Switch 2 will continue Amiibo integration. How much will the Nintendo Switch 2 cost?We don't have too much information regarding price but we do have plenty of history to work with. The original Nintendo Switch launched at $300, which is pretty much the "magic number" when it comes to Nintendo console releases in recent years. The Wii U also came in at $300. However, there are plenty of rumors circulating that Nintendo could be upping the asking price for the Switch 2. Several analysts are expecting Nintendo to hike the price to at least $400 and possibly even as much as $500. Rising costs of components and development, as well as US tariffs, are likely to mean that the Switch 2 is more expensive than its predecessor. Dipping back into history, there is some precedence for a price uptick. The GameCube was $200 and the Wii was $250. The Wii U and Switch increased to $300 and, well, numbers like to go up. A $400 price tag would make the Switch 2 nearly as expensive as a PS5 and Xbox Series X. That would also put it at the same price as the 256GB LCD Steam Deck. Again, we should get confirmation of the price during the April 2 Nintendo Direct.How well will the Nintendo Switch 2 sell?Even with an expected price increase, Nintendo is likely to sell boatloads of Switch 2 consoles. The company seems to be positioning itself to shatter sales records. Reports suggest that Nintendo wants to have as many units ready to sell as possible on release day. One analyst told Bloomberg that they expected Nintendo to have an inventory of between 6 million and 8 million units at the outset.As Bloomberg notes, the company sold 2.7 million Switch units in that console's first month. Sony's PS4 and PS5 each sold 4.5 million units in their first quarter on the market, though it's worth noting the PS5's early momentum was hindered somewhat by shortages.Nintendo has sold more than 150 million Switch units. Given that many fans are more than ready for an upgrade (and to perhaps give their old Switch to a young relative or sell it on the cheap), the Switch 2 is very likely to go gangbusters right out of the gate.Do we know about any launch games?Not so much. The reveal trailer offered a peek at a new Mario Kart game. Nintendo released Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U over a decade ago and it's been milking that cash cow ever since, having sold more than 64 million copies of the game across that console and the Switch. It's definitely time for a new entry!It's certainly been a long time since we’ve gotten a proper 3D Mario adventure as well, so a new one could be a launch title. That would be one heck of a system seller. Other than that, your guess is as good as ours. Past as prologue, we can expect something from Ubisoft and an off-the-wall title like 1-2-Switch. One report suggested that PowerWash Simulator 2 is bound for the Switch 2, so that's something.If there’s a gimmick or hook involved with the console, we’ll also get a game that takes advantage of that. A dual release of Metroid Prime 4, just like Breath of the Wild and Twilight Princess before that, is also a possibility. It's all but nailed on that we'll learn much more about the Switch 2 launch lineup during the April 2 Nintendo Direct, which starts at 9AM ET. You'll definitely want to set your Alarmo for that one.That's everything we know about the Nintendo Switch 2 today.

Activision's continual marketing department assault for Warzone culminated today in a bombastic launch trailer for Warzone's long-awaited return to its OG map, Verdansk, and it's sure to get the blood pumping.For any Call of Duty players who still somehow haven't realized that the 2020 launch map for the free-to-play battle royale mode is coming back this week, this trailer is sure to do it. With all sorts of Verdansk shenanigans shown off to the tune of Queen's classic "Bohemian Rhapsody," this one is likely being sent off in text messages and group chats around the world.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqPCFUUbMiUWarzone players who continue to play the BR or those who've long since moved on are all anticipating Thursday's arrival of Verdansk, the map where Warzone made its name and where tens of millions of players dropped in five years ago during the COVID-19 pandemic to "escape from reality," as Freddy Mercury so eloquently puts it in the song.While the pandemic may have come to an end for most, the world around us still sucks in other ways, so maybe a return to Verdansk is what we all need. I've already sent the trailer to my own group chats with friends, and pals who haven't touched CoD in years are getting ready to download updates tonight.Verdansk coming back as the main BR map is just a part of the nostalgia that Activision is trying to prey on with this season of Black Ops 6 and Warzone. You can think of season three as an attempted full rollback of the past few years of updates to BR, which have largely been unpopular with a vast part of the player base.For example, returning features that were stripped from the game include floating loot, vehicles like the helicopter and "Big Bertha" truck, re-worked player movement, several popular weapons like the CR-56 AMAX and Kilo 141, a similar UI for the Buy Station, and even the original announcer and cutscenes.Will it all be enough to get Warzone back on track after years of missteps and head-scratching decisions? That's what Activision is hoping, rolling out an assumedly large marketing budget that includes this trailer but also several influencer videos on social media including baseball player Juan Soto, recording artist Tinashe, and several others.Image via ActivisionWe'll know more once Warzone returns at 12pm ET on April 3 after 24 hours of server downtime to deploy the update. Players can play BO6 to level up weapons and continue to enjoy CoD in the meantime.The post CoD enlists all-time rock classic to soundtrack latest marketing barrage for Warzone’s Verdansk return appeared first on Destructoid.

Amazon’s latest Big Spring Sale is into its final day, and while the week-long event hasn't been as big on tech as Black Friday or Prime Day, it's still served up a few genuinely decent discounts on Apple devices. If you’re looking for a new iPad, pair of AirPods or Beats speaker, we’ve rounded up the best Apple deals going on right now below. In truth, most of these offers aren’t explicitly tied to the Spring Sale, and more than a few have expired since the sale began. Still, a number of Apple gadgets we recommend remain available for lower prices than usual. As a reminder, the deals below are not exclusive to Prime members. Best Amazon Spring Sale Apple deals Apple AirPods 4 with ANC for $149 ($30 off MSRP): This version of the AirPods 4 is nearly identical to the base model, only it supports active noise cancellation and comes with a wireless charging case. It also supports other listening modes like Adaptive Audio, and that case can tap into Apple’s Find My tracking network if you ever misplace it. The ANC isn’t as effective as what you can get with a pair that fully seals off the ear canal, but it makes the earbuds a little more useful in noisy environments all the same. We gave the device a score of 86 in our review. This discount is $11 higher than the best price we’ve seen, but it’s about as low as the earbuds have fallen outside of that. The AirPods Pro 2. Billy Steele/Engadget Apple AirPods Pro 2 for $170 ($79 off): The AirPods Pro 2 remain Apple’s best set of wireless earbuds, as they offer the full set of Apple-focused features, strong ANC, onboard volume controls, a (generally) comfy in-ear design and a warm sound profile that most should find agreeable. They can even work as a hearing aid, though their six-hour battery life still isn’t the best, and you should only get them if you’re all-in on Apple hardware. If that’s the case, though, we call them the best choice for iPhone owners in our wireless earbuds buying guide. We saw this pair drop as low as $154 back in December, but this deal comes within a dollar of its best price since then. Apple iPad (A16) for $329 ($20 off): The newest entry-level iPad only arrived three weeks ago, but Amazon is currently selling it for $20 less than Apple direct, which is a decent little savings if you planned on grabbing the tablet early anyway. This one is another small update, but it now comes with a faster A16 chip, more RAM and 128GB of storage as standard. It earned a score of 84 in our review — if you only need an iPad for media consumption and lighter work, it's still a fine value. Also at B&H and Best Buy. The Apple iPad (A16). Jeff Dunn for Engadget Apple iPad Air 11-inch (M3) for $549 ($50 off): Much like the deal on the base iPad above, this isn’t a huge discount, but it’s a nice chance to save a few bucks compared to buying from Apple directly. The new iPad Air was released on the same day as the iPad (A16) and is a similarly minor update; the only big addition is a more powerful M3 chip. However, we still prefer the Air over the base model if you can swing it: Its display is more color-rich and better at fending off glare, its speakers are more robust, it works with Apple’s best accessories and its performance should hold up better in the years ahead. The older M2-powered model is an even better value if you can find it on sale, but either way the Air is the iPad we recommend to most people. Also at B&H, Best Buy and Walmart. Apple iPad Air 13-inch (M3) for $738 ($61 off): We gave the 13-inch iPad Air a review score of 89 earlier this month. It has a bigger and slightly brighter display than its 11-inch counterpart; otherwise, the two slates are the same. If you plan to keep your iPad hooked up to a keyboard, the extra screen space is lovely for taking in movies and multitasking for work. This is the lowest price we’ve seen for the 128GB model. Also at Walmart. Expired deals Apple Mac mini (M4 Pro) for $1,199 ($200 off): It's still not cheap, but here's the lowest price we've seen for this higher-spec configuration of the latest Mac mini, which includes an M4 Pro chip, 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. This specific model is overkill for casual users, but it should be a decent buy for those with more professional needs who want a compact Mac but can’t spring for the top-end Mac Studio. We gave the Mac mini a score of 90 in our review last November, praising its performance, pint-sized design and port selection, though it can get noisy under load and it still lacks an SD card reader. If you do only need a desktop for basic tasks, the entry-level model with a standard M4 chip, 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD has also dropped back to $499. That $100 discount matches the best price we’ve tracked. Apple Watch Series 10 for $299 ($70 off): The top pick in our guide to the best smartwatches, the Series 10 is a mostly iterative update, with faster charging, a slightly slimmer profile and a marginally larger display compared to the previous Series 9. That said, it remains a comprehensive fitness tracker, and no other smartwatch can integrate as neatly with iPhones and other Apple devices. It should be a welcome upgrade if you’re looking to upgrade from an older Apple Watch (think pre-Series 7) — just keep in mind a patent dispute has locked it out the blood oxygen detection features found on those older models. This $100 discount matches the lowest price we’ve seen for the non-cellular model with a 42mm case. Apple iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) for $1,099 ($200 off): The iPad Pro is more tablet than most people need, but it’s the ultimate iPad for those who can stomach its price tag. It’s wonderfully thin, its OLED display is one of the best we’ve seen on a consumer device and its M4 chip can handle virtually anything you’d ever do on an iPad. It’s also the only Apple tablet with Face ID, plus it has a better speaker setup than the iPad Air. We gave it a score of 84 in our review, with the only real drawback being how expensive it all is. This deal on doesn’t truly lessen that — and it’s another deal we’ve seen multiple times in recent months — but it still ties the 13-inch model’s all-time low.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/deals/amazon-spring-sale-apple-deals-airpods-ipads-and-more-are-still-up-to-100-off-092050849.html?src=rss

STIC Investments Inc., South Korea’s only listed private equity firm, has become the latest target of shareholder activism as Seoul-based Align Partners Capital Management Inc. joined the US private equity firm Miri Capital in building up a stake.Align Partners has raised its shareholding in STIC Investments to 6.64%, according to its regulatory filing on Friday. Its share purchase followed Miri Capital becoming the second-largest shareholder in the domestic private equity firm with an 10.8% stake.Align Partners’ shareholding in STIC Investments, is estimated at 360 billion won ($245 million), based on the current market price.The move comes as STIC Investments founder and Chairman Do Yong-Hwan, 68, is approaching a retirement age, while Korean buyout firms are increasingly targeting companies with poor governance to extract better returns.Amid the rise of homegrown investment firms in South Korea, STIC has been active in small- and medium-sized M&A deals. Align Partners, founded and led by Lee Changwhan, a former KKR and Goldman Sachs banker, has gradually increased its shareholding in STIC in open-market trade. Between March 20 and 27, it had aggressively snatched up the shares, according to investment banking sources. During the period, STIC’s share price soared 28.8% to 9,440 won.In 2023, Align Partners made headlines withs its shareholder campaign against SM Entertainment Co., a K-pop pioneer., sparking controvery and criticism toward the fund.Last year, it has expanded its campaign to Doosan Bobcat Co., urging the construction machinery marker to implement measures aimed at boosting shareholder returns.Last month, it submitted shareholder proposals to Coway Co., a water purifier and bidet rental company, before the latter’s annual general meeting, demanding greater transparency at its governance structure. Lee founded Align Partners in 2021 to leverage his experience and deep understanding of South Korea's M&A market and PEF industry ecosystem.He viewed STIC Investments as undervalued compared to other listed global PE houses.Boston-based Miri Capital described itself not as an activist, but a "consultavist" as it seeks to enhance corporate value by connecting its portfolio companies with relevant players firms in their supply chains, as well as offering business advice.It was said that Align Partners and Miri Capital have separate under-the-table discussions with STIC Investment’s top management about business proposal and strategic advice.They are understood to have suggested the Korean PE house aggressively engage with investors through investor relations meetings to address its undervaluation.Industry sources said the two activist funds are unlikely to launch campaigns against STIC in the immediate term. But their share accumulation is posing a threat to STIC’s ownership structure. Its chairman Do Yong Hwan, 68, owns 13.46% of the firm. Together with its family and company executives, they own a combined 19.45%, only slightly ahead of the 17.42% jointly held by both Align Partners and Miri Capital.By Jong-Kwan [email protected] Yeonhee Kim edited this article.

Madalina Vasiliu/The Epoch Times“A lot of people want me to do it,” Trump told NBC News on Sunday morning. “But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration.”When asked about whether he is serious or joking about the third term comments, Trump said, “I’m not joking.”“It is far too early to think about it,” he said, adding elsewhere in the interview that he is “focused on the current” term in office.Since taking office, Trump has, on multiple occasions, suggested that he wants to run for a third term, which could pose a legal challenge, because the 22nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution states “no person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.” That amendment was ratified in 1951 after President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected four consecutive times. Roosevelt was the only president in U.S. history to be elected to either a third or fourth term.Days after Trump took office in January, Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) proposed an amendment to the Constitution that could allow presidents to be elected for three terms. However, amending the Constitution would require two-thirds of Congress members to vote for its approval, which would then have to be ratified by three-fourths of state Legislatures.A reporter just asked President Trump about a third term.Trump: We’ve got a long way to go—almost four years—but despite that, so many people are saying, ‘You’ve got to run again.’ Most importantly, they love the job we’re doing. pic.twitter.com/afAXJiDABD— Grace Chong, MBI (@gc22gc) March 31, 2025Explaining why he would want to seek a third term, Trump said that, “You have to start by saying, I have the highest poll numbers of any Republican for the last 100 years.”“We’re in the high 70s in many polls, in the real polls, and you see that. And, and you know, we’re very popular,” Trump said.When asked about how he could be elected to a third term, Trump told NBC News there might be ways to do so.NBC’s Kristen Welker then provided him with a hypothetical situation: “Well, let me throw out one where President Vance would run for office and then would, basically ... if he won, at the top of the ticket, would then pass the baton to you.”In response, Trump said, “Well, that’s one. But there are others, too. There are others.”“Can you tell me another?” Welker asked Trump. “No,” he said.The 12th Amendment, which was ratified in 1804, says that “no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”Also in the interview, Trump was asked about why he wants to continue to be president, which Welker described is “the toughest job in the country.”“Well, I like working,” replied Trump, who would be 82 at the end of his current term.The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Trump's New World Order Authored by Nick Giambruno via InternationalMan.com,The US-led world order has undergone several distinct phases since the end of World War 2.From 1945 to 1991, it was defined by the Cold War—a global struggle between the US and the Soviet Union.After the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, the post-WW2 world order experienced a massive shift, with the US emerging as the undisputed global superpower. This era, often called the “unipolar moment,” lasted from 1991 until Trump’s inauguration in 2025.Yuval Harari is a key advisor to Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF). He recently stated that if Trump were to become president again, it “is likely to be the kind of death blow to what remains of the global order.”While I think it’s premature to declare the end of the post-WW2 world order, Trump’s return to the White House undoubtedly marks one of the most significant shifts in international relations since the Soviet Union’s fall.Marco Rubio serves as Trump’s Secretary of State, tasked with executing Trump’s vision for America’s role on the world stage.His statements—during his Senate confirmation hearings and in an interview with journalist Megyn Kelly—have made that vision unmistakably clear.Here’s what Rubio stated during his confirmation hearings (emphasis added):“Out of the triumphalism of the end of long Cold War emerged a bi-partisan consensus that we had reached ‘the end of history.’ That all the nations of Earth would become members of the democratic Western led community. That a foreign policy that served the national interest could now be replaced by one that served the ‘liberal world order.’ And that all mankind was now destined to abandon national identity, and we would become ‘one human family’ and ‘citizens of the world.’This wasn’t just a fantasy; it was a dangerous delusion.Here in America, and in many of the advanced economies across the world, an almost religious commitment to free and unfettered trade at the expense of our national economy, shrunk the middle class, left the working class in crisis, collapsed industrial capacity, and pushed critical supply chains into the hands of adversaries and rivals. An irrational zeal for maximum freedom of movement of people has resulted in a historic mass migration crisis here in America and around the world that threatens the stability of societies and governments.While America far too often continued to prioritize the ‘global order’ above our core national interests, other nations continued to act the way countries always have and always will, in what they perceive to be in their best interest.And instead of folding into the post-Cold War global order, they have manipulated it to serve their interest at the expense of ours. We welcomed the Chinese Communist Party into this global order. And they took advantage of all its benefits. But they ignored all its obligations and responsibilities. Instead, they have lied, cheated, hacked, and stolen their way to global superpower status, at our expense.The postwar global order is not just obsolete; it is now a weapon being used against us.And all this has led us to a moment in which we must now confront the single greatest risk of geopolitical instability and generational global crisis in the lifetime of anyone alive here today.Eight decades later, we are called to create a free world out of chaos once again. This will not be easy. And it will be impossible without a strong and confident America that engages in the world, putting our core national interests above all else once again.”Here are Rubio’s remarks to Megyn Kelly (emphasis added):Megyn Kelly: America First?Secretary Rubio: Well, and that’s the way the world has always worked. The way the world has always worked is that the Chinese will do what’s in the best interests of China, the Russians will do what’s in the best interest of Russia, the Chileans are going to do what’s in the best interest of Chile, and the United States needs to do what’s in the best interest of the United States.Where our interests align, that’s where you have partnerships and alliances; where our differences are not aligned, that is where the job of diplomacy is to prevent conflict while still furthering our national interests and understanding they’re going to further theirs. And that’s been lost.And I think that was lost at the end of the Cold War, because we were the only power in the world, and so we assumed this responsibility of sort of becoming the global government in many cases, trying to solve every problem.And there are terrible things happening in the world. There are. And then there are things that are terrible that impact our national interest directly, and we need to prioritize those again.So, it’s not normal for the world to simply have a unipolar power. That was an anomaly. It was a product of the end of the Cold War, but eventually you were going to reach back to a point where you had a multipolar world, multi-great powers in different parts of the planet.We face that now with China and to some extent Russia, and then you have rogue states like Iran and North Korea you have to deal with.So now more than ever we need to remember that foreign policy should always be about furthering the national interest of the United States and doing so, to the extent possible, avoiding war and armed conflict, which we have seen two times in the last century be very costly.They’re celebrating the 80th anniversary this year of the end of the Second World War. That – I think if you look at the scale and scope of destruction and loss of life that occurred, it would be far worse if we had a global conflict now. It may end life on the planet. And it sounds like hyperbole, but you have multiple countries now who have the capability to end life on Earth. And so we need to really work hard to avoid armed conflict as much as possible, but never at the expense of our national interest. So that’s the tricky balance. “Rubio’s words are a reflection of Trump’s vision and policy. Frankly, it’s a much-needed dose of realism and pragmatism.It’s worth emphasizing several key points from Rubio’s remarks:The idea that the US could uphold a unipolar world order indefinitely “wasn’t just a fantasy; it was a dangerous delusion.”“The postwar global order is not just obsolete; it is now a weapon being used against us.”“We must now confront the single greatest risk of geopolitical instability and generational global crisis in the lifetime of anyone alive here today.”“It’s not normal for the world to simply have a unipolar power. That was an anomaly.”“Eventually, you were going to reach back to a point where you had a multipolar world, multi-great powers in different parts of the planet.”Though it endured for 34 years, the notion that the US could maintain a unipolar world order indefinitely was never realistic.President Trump seems to recognize that maintaining it is not just unrealistic but unsustainable. He appears to have decided that it is in the US’s best interest to transition to a multipolar reality on its own terms rather than be forced into it by a chaotic collapse.We are now in a volatile adjustment period as the unipolar world order gives way to a multipolar one (click image below to enlarge).Does this mean World War 3 is over?I don’t think so. But it does mean we have entered a new phase of it.There is still much to be determined—most crucially, the boundaries of the US, Russia, and China’s spheres of influence in this emerging multipolar world.With the war in Ukraine all but lost and the prospect of victory in Taiwan shrinking by the day, the US government appears to have accepted that the complete subjugation of Russia and China under its unipolar dominance is no longer an achievable goal.The goalposts of World War 3 have shifted.Rather than total victory and preserving the unipolar world order, the US is now focused on maximizing its power within the new multipolar landscape—while limiting the influence of its most formidable rivals: Russia, China, and their allies, including Iran.While the US seems to be moving away from the unipolar model and begrudgingly acknowledging the existence of rival powers, it still seeks to be the dominant force in a multipolar world.The new global boundaries have yet to be defined, and the situation remains volatile and dangerous. Whether Trump can successfully guide the US—and the world—through this transition without descending into greater conflict remains an open question.On a smaller scale, this mirrors how powerful criminal organizations—such as mafias and street gangs—operate within a city. Ideally, a gang or mafia would eliminate all rivals. However, when certain rivals prove too strong to destroy, the conflict shifts toward defining boundaries until a formal arrangement is reached that divides territories.The same dynamic is now unfolding on a global scale between the US, Russia, and China as World War 3 plays out.Each side is maneuvering to expand its power and influence until a new arrangement is reached that defines the balance of the multipolar world.The Global Order Is Changing—Are You Ready?The unipolar world is fading, and a volatile new multipolar reality is taking shape.The global power structure is shifting fast—and the consequences will be massive.Most people will be caught off guard—don’t be one of them.What does this mean for America? For the economy? For you?That’s why I’ve put together an urgent report revealing the hidden forces shaping this new era and how to prepare for the massive geopolitical and economic shifts ahead.This could be the most important dispatch you read all year.Don’t get caught unprepared.Click here to see it now.

"Damning Conduct": FBI Agents Stationed In Asia Paid For Sex From Prostitutes Over Several Years FBI agents stationed overseas engaged in sex with prostitutes in Cambodia, the Philippines, and Thailand—sometimes while colleagues attended anti-human trafficking training, the New York Times reported.The "damning conduct", which occurred between 2009 and 2018, involved agents paying for or accepting sex while socializing with each other and local police, revealing a culture where women were routinely exploited.The report, made public after a New York Times lawsuit, offers the most detailed account yet of a scandal kept largely under wraps since the early Trump years. It surfaces as new FBI Director Kash Patel vows to overhaul the agency.Prostitution is widespread but illegal in Cambodia, the Philippines, and Thailand—countries where FBI agents engaged in misconduct, despite the bureau’s ban on paying for sex and its stated focus on fighting human trafficking.“The F.B.I. took swift action once alerted to the behavior,” the agency said, adding that those involved were fired and overseas personnel training has since been updated.Some incidents occurred during official events. In 2017, agents in Bangkok twice visited bars to negotiate sex while accompanied by local police. That same year, the FBI co-hosted anti-trafficking training with Thai authorities. It's unclear if the misconduct occurred during that specific training.The Times wrote that in 2018, during another event in Manila, FBI employees accepted prostitutes reportedly paid for by a local law enforcement agency, according to the report.The Wall Street Journal first reported in 2018 that several FBI employees had been recalled from Asia amid an investigation into alleged contact with prostitutes and other misconduct.A 2021 inspector general summary confirmed five employees had solicited sex abroad, and one had given a colleague “a package containing approximately 100 white pills to deliver to a foreign law enforcement officer.”The full report, now released after a legal battle with The New York Times, details multiple violations involving groups of FBI employees. In one case, agents at a karaoke bar were handed room keys or numbered slips tied to hotel rooms—at least one was a supervisor. Two employees reportedly engaged in sex acts with prostitutes while sharing a room.The Justice Department under both Trump and Biden fought to keep the details sealed, citing privacy concerns. A federal judge ultimately ordered the release of the less-redacted version on Thursday. Tyler DurdenSat, 03/29/2025 - 22:45

China's Tech Triple Play Threatens US National Security Authored by Craig Singleton via RealClearWire,Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Xi Jinping has defiantly declared that technological innovation is the “main battlefield” in China’s quest for global preeminence. But, Beijing’s bold bid to transform itself into a global science superpower is not merely an economic imperative—it is a means to strengthen China’s military might and cyber capabilities, with grave implications for the United States.At the center of Xi’s vision are what he calls China’s “new productive forces”—breakthroughs in advanced batteries, biotech, LiDAR, drones, and other emerging technologies that promise to redefine the next industrial revolution. By dominating these sectors, Beijing aims to ensure Chinese technology is deeply embedded within critical American supply chains—everything from power grids and ports to communications networks —thereby converting China’s commercial success into a powerful geopolitical tool of leverage.Here at home, Beijing’s strategy is unfolding in three interlocking phases—penetrating, prepositioning, and profiting—which together form an insidious framework that both erodes America’s technological edge and undermines homeland security.Recently exposed Chinese state-sponsored hacking campaigns—Salt, Volt, and Flax Typhoon—exemplify Beijing’s systematic approach to penetrating U.S. networks and critical infrastructure. The Salt campaign exploited vulnerabilities in telecommunications systems, allowing attackers to intercept voice and text communications and thereby compromise both civilian privacy and government operations. The Volt operation targeted industrial control systems, breaching energy and manufacturing networks to gain remote control over essential infrastructure. Meanwhile, Flax Typhoon focused on defense and government networks, exfiltrating sensitive data and installing persistent backdoors to facilitate future sabotage.Collectively, these campaigns reveal how Chinese hackers methodically exploit software and hardware weaknesses to harvest critical intelligence and maintain enduring access to sensitive U.S networks, often with next-to-no consequences. Yet infiltration is not an end in itself. Once inside, Beijing systematically prepositions latent capabilities throughout our physical and digital supply chains, setting the stage for future coercion.Today, Chinese-made LiDAR devices underpin smart city systems, autonomous vehicles, and certain aerial reconnaissance platforms. Similarly, Chinese-produced surveillance cameras and drones are integrated throughout our transportation network, including at major U.S. airports. Even critical infrastructure components like cranes in U.S. ports and batteries connected to our grids have morphed into strategic choke points, according to Congressional investigations.In a conflict—or even a severe diplomatic crisis—these systemic dependencies could confer a decisive advantage to China. By withholding critical parts or inflating prices at a pivotal moment, Beijing can exploit these supply chain choke points to hamper U.S. readiness.Prepositioned exploits could degrade or disable U.S. command-and-control systems, sabotage energy grids, or paralyze transportation networks—potentially stalling America’s response before a single shot is fired. Even if such disruptions remain hypothetical, the mere suspicion of sabotage can erode policymaker confidence and delay military mobilization efforts, effectively handing Beijing a silent veto over our crisis decision-making.The final phase of Beijing’s strategy is profiting from these dependencies, turning commercial dominance into a revenue stream that reinforces its military-civil fusion. Chinese high-tech exports, ranging from advanced sensors and biotech innovations to drones and surveillance cameras, generate billions in revenue every year for Beijing. These profits are not reinvested merely for commercial growth; they are often funneled directly into programs bolstering People’s Liberation Army’s R&D efforts.The stakes could hardly be higher. The House Homeland Security Committee, along with other congressional panels, has convened hearings spotlighting how Chinese hackers sit in vital infrastructure systems and how Beijing’s infiltration extends into our supply chains. The bipartisan consensus emerging from these discussions is clear: we must move swiftly from passive defense of American networks to proactive deterrence.Policymakers can begin by tightening outbound investment screening and export controls. That means scrutinizing U.S. capital and technology flows into Chinese firms linked to China’s military-industrial base, ensuring that American money and know-how no longer subsidize Beijing’s military modernization. Simultaneously, federal agencies should adopt “clean network” standards for software, hardware, and data, effectively establishing cyber quarantines for critical infrastructure. This would bar high-risk Chinese devices from power grids, ports, and telecommunications systems—treating them as inherently untrusted until proven otherwise.Equally important is imposing meaningful consequences on Beijing’s cyber intrusions. Diplomatic protests and token indictments of mid-level hackers have failed to alter China’s calculus. Instead, Washington should consider stronger penalties—including financial blacklisting of major Chinese firms or banks—to send an unmistakable message that continued infiltration carries real costs.Finally, we must commit to robust innovation at home. America can’t meet the Chinese challenge simply by playing defense. Expanding federal R&D, incentivizing private-sector breakthroughs, and aligning workforce development with future technology needs will ensure that the United States remains a leader in the very fields—biotech, AI, quantum computing, energy storage—where China seeks supremacy.Xi’s “main battlefield” is already upon us, and America can no longer afford complacency. China’s triple threat—penetrating, prepositioning, and profiting—targets the core of our national resilience. If we fail to respond decisively, we risk losing our technological edge and compromising our security. By fortifying our networks, enforcing meaningful consequences on malicious actors, and investing in American innovation, we can ensure Xi’s ambitions do not come at the expense of our prosperity and safety.

NBC Has Film Proving Oswald 'Couldn't Have Been The Shooter,' GOP Rep Claims The Republican congresswoman who's leading a task force on the declassification of JFK and other assassination files made a sensational claim on Friday evening, stating that NBC News possesses film evidence proving that Lee Harvey Oswald could not have shot Kennedy -- and that she's now working to obtain it. Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna made the jarring allegation in an interview with Jesse Watters on Fox News. Luna is chairwoman of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, a subcommittee of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. She told Watters that the task force will be holding an April 1 hearing on the tens of thousands of documents that have been declassified pursuant to President Trump's executive order and a 1992 act of Congress. Cameras captured Lee Harvey Oswald's assassin, Jack Ruby (top right) posing as a reporter at Oswald's midnight press conference on Nov 22 1963. Ruby killed Oswald two days later. Then she dropped her bombshell: "It was made aware to me this evening that NBC actually has a video that’s never been seen before. We’re actually going to be sending a letter requesting that from NBC because it allegedly shows Oswald near the vehicle when the assassination took place, which means that he couldn’t have been the shooter."Luna also said Oliver Stone, who directed the 1991 thriller JFK, says he's seen a "secondary copy" of the film, and that NBC has been sitting on it: "Director Stone actually told us that he was shown this tape, that it was a secondary copy, and that he said that this could blow open the entire JFK investigation. What I will also tell you though, Jesse, is he said the NBC’s been very, very much so guarding this tape. And so I believe that that tape belongs to the American people. We are going to be sending a letter asking for that tape. And I would encourage everyone to ask NBC to release that tape to the public." 🚨BREAKING: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna claims NBC allegedly has been withholding a video that shows Lee Harvey Oswald near John F. Kennedy’s limo at the time of the shooting, seeming to conclude he was not the assassin.pic.twitter.com/olHumMfzmc— Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) March 29, 2025Luna's task force was created in February as a Congressional complement to Trump's executive order calling for the release of files relating to the assassinations of JRK, Senator Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. The committee is also working to unearth documents relating to the origin of Covid-19, extra-terrestrial life, UFOs, 9/11, the prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein and the mission to kill Osama bin Laden. In February, Luna said she was on a mission to take a fresh look at investigations that have been “rinsed and repeated by the media to push a certain narrative that we don’t agree with.” She also shared her own preliminary hunch about the JFK assassination: "I believe there were two shooters.”We'll have to wait and see if a film emerges and substantiates Oswald's claims of innocence:For now, though, Luna is raising eyebrows across the country...something she's previously demonstrated a knack for doing, in a variety of ways: Anna Paulina Luna is being shamed by the liberal left for modeling a swimsuit and being hot.If she performed in drag in front of children, they would celebrate her bravery and courage.Anna responded on X and said...

Novo Nordisk said its diabetes pill Rybelsus showed cardiovascular benefits in a late-stage trial. The pill lowered the risk of cardiovascular-related death, heart attack and stroke by 14% compared to a placebo after four years on average in patients with diabetes and established heart disease, with or without chronic kidney disease. The results pave the way for it to become a new treatment option for people living with diabetes and established heart disease. Novo Nordisk on Saturday said its diabetes pill Rybelsus showed cardiovascular benefits in a late-stage trial, paving the way for it to become a new treatment option for people living with diabetes and heart disease. The pill lowered the risk of cardiovascular-related death, heart attack and stroke by 14% compared to a placebo after four years on average in patients with diabetes and established heart disease, with or without chronic kidney disease. The Danish drugmaker presented the results on Rybelsus, which is already approved for Type 2 diabetes, at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session in Chicago. Novo Nordisk has already applied in the U.S. and EU to expand the pill’s approval to include lowering the risk of serious cardiovascular complications, Stephen Gough, the company’s global chief medical officer, said in an interview.Rybelsus is the once-daily oral formulation of Novo Nordisk’s blockbuster diabetes injection Ozempic, which is taken once a week. Both treatments, as well as the company’s weekly weight loss injection Wegovy, contain the active ingredient semaglutide.Wegovy in March 2024 won U.S. approval for slashing the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with cardiovascular disease and who are obese or overweight. But the pill data presented on Saturday suggests that patients who are hesitant to take injections, such as those who are afraid of needles, could soon access treatment in a more convenient way. “We know not everybody wants an injection, whether it is painful or not, they want the option of an oral medication,” Gough told CNBC. “We provide that option, that you can have one or the other, depending on what the patients and the healthcare professional think is right in that joint discussion.”The data comes as a slate of other drugmakers, including Eli Lilly, work to develop oral GLP-1s for diabetes, weight loss and other conditions, such as sleep apnea.The phase three trial examined just over 9,600 patients 50 years and older who received either Rybelsus or placebo, both on top of their standard treatment regimen, for an average of just under four years. Nearly half of all patients received medications called SGLT2 inhibitors, which are primarily used to lower blood sugar in adults with Type 2 diabetes, at some point during the trial. By the end of the trial, 12% of people taking Rybelsus and 13.8% of those taking placebo experienced cardiovascular-related death, heart attack or stroke. That represents a 14% overall lower risk among those who took Rybelsus. Researchers said that the reduced risk is in line with the cardiovascular benefits observed in eight previous trials involving injectable GLP-1s, which include semaglutide and other popular medications, according to a release from the American College of Cardiology. GLP-1s mimic certain gut hormones to tamp down appetite and regulate blood sugar, but also have other effects such as reducing inflammation. Rybelsus helped lower the risk of non-fatal heart attacks by 26% compared to the placebo, which was “the primary driver” of the overall reduction of risk for cardiovascular complications in the trial, the release said. The pill also slashed the risk of non-fatal strokes by 12% and cardiovascular-related death by 7% compared to placebo. There was no significant difference between the Rybelsus and placebo groups in outcomes related to kidney function, the release added. But the trial was “clearly” designed to examine the cardiovascular rather than kidney benefits of the pill, Gough said. Ozempic is already approved to treat chronic kidney disease in diabetes patients. The most common side effects reported in the study were gastrointestinal issues, such as nausea, diarrhea and constipation, which rarely led patients to stop taking Rybelsus, according to the release. Those symptoms are consistent with the side effects of injectable semaglutide. Similar results were seen across all subgroups of patients – by age, sex and among people with different health conditions at the start of the trial, the release said. Unlike its injectable counterparts, Rybelsus must be taken on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before breakfast with a small amount of water. Despite those requirements, the study offers “reassurance that patients were able to take the drug as directed and reap cardiovascular health benefits from it,” said Dr. Darren McGuire, professor of medicine at UT Southwestern Medical Center and the study’s first author.
Ultra-Processed Life Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog,Consuming more of this Ultra-Processed World is not a path to "the good life," it's a path to the destruction and derangement of an Ultra-Processed Life.The digital realm, finance, and junk food have something in common: they're all ultra-processed, synthetic versions of Nature that have been designed to be compellingly addictive, to the detriment of our health and quality of life.In focusing on the digital realm, money (i.e. finance, "growth," consuming more as the measure of all that is good) and eating more of what tastes good, we now have an Ultra-Processed Life. All three-- the digital realm, money in all its manifestations and junk food--are all consumed: they all taste good, i.e. generate endorphin hits, and so they draw us into their synthetic Ultra-Processed World.We're so busy consuming that we don't realize they're consuming us: in focusing on producing and consuming more goods and services as the sole measure of "the good life," it's never enough: if we pile up $1 million, we focus on piling up $2 million. If we pile up $2 million, we focus on accumulating $3 million. And so on, in every manifestation of money and consumption.The digital realm consumes our lives one minute and one hour at a time, for every minute spent focusing on a screen is a minute taken from the real world, which is the only true measure of the quality of our life.Ultra-processed food is edible, but it isn't nutritious. It tastes good, but it harms us in complex ways we don't fully understand.This is the core dynamic of the synthetic "products and services" that dominate modern life: the harm they unleash is hidden beneath a constant flow of endorphin hits, distractions, addictive media and unfilled hunger for all that is lacking in our synthetic Ultra-Processed World: a sense of security, a sense of control, a sense of being grounded, and the absence of a hunger to find synthetic comforts in a world stripped of natural comforts.In effect, we're hungry ghosts in this Ultra-Processed World, unable to satisfy our authentic needs in a synthetic world of artifice and inauthenticity. The more we consume, the hungrier we become for what is unavailable in an Ultra-Processed Life.We're told there's no upper limit on "growth" of GDP, wealth, abundance, finance or consumption, but this is a form of insanity, for none of this "growth" addresses what's lacking and what's broken in our lives, the derangements generated by consuming (and being consumed by) highly profitable synthetic versions of the real world.Insanity is often described as doing the same thing and expecting a different result. So our financial system inflates yet another credit-asset bubble and we expect that this bubble won't pop, laying waste to everyone who believed that doing the same thing would magically generate a different result.But there is another form of insanity that's easily confused with denial: we are blind to the artificial nature of this Ultra-Processed World and blind to its causal mechanisms: there is only one possible output of this synthetic version of Nature, and that output is a complex tangle of derangements that we seek to resolve by dulling the pain of living a deranged life.We're not in denial; we literally don't see our Ultra-Processed World for what it is: a manufactured mirror world of commoditized derangements and distortions that have consumed us so completely that we've lost the ability to see what's been lost.Ultra-processed snacks offer the perfect metaphor. We can't stop consuming more, yet the more we consume the greater the damage to our health. The worse we feel, the more we eat to distract ourselves, to get that comforting endorphin hit. It's a feedback loop that ends in the destruction of our health and life.Once we've been consumed by money, the digital realm and ultra-processed foods, we've lost the taste for the real world. A fresh raw carrot is sweet, but once we're consuming a diet of sugary cold cereals and other equivalents of candy, we no longer taste the natural sweetness of a carrot; it's been lost in the rush of synthetic extremes of salt, sugar and fat that make ultra-processed foods so addictive. To recover the taste of real food, we first have to completely abandon ultra-processed foods-- Go Cold Turkey.The idea that we can consume junk food and maintain the taste for real food in some sort of balance is delusional, for the reasons stated above: junk food destroys our taste for real food and its artificially generated addictive qualities will overwhelm our plan to "eat healthy" half the time.Just as there is no "balance" between ultra-processed food and real food, there is no balance between the synthetic Ultra-Processed World and the real world. We choose one or the other, either by default or by design.Credit--borrowing money created out of thin air--is the financial equivalent of ultra-processed food. The machinery that spews out the addictive glop is complicated: in the "food" factory, real ingredients are processed into addictive snacks. In finance, reverse repos, swaps, derivatives, mortgages, etc. generate a highly addictive financial product: credit.Just as with ultra-processed food, the more credit we consume, the more it consumes us. I owe, I owe, so off to work I go.The derangements of synthetic food, digital realms and finance have yet to fully play out. Consuming more of this Ultra-Processed World is not a path to "the good life," it's a path to the destruction and derangement of an Ultra-Processed Life.* * *Become a $3/month patron of my work via patreon.com.

Researchers Identify Diets In Mid-Life Linked To Healthy Aging Authored by George Citroner via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),A 30-year study finds a primarily plant-based diet, with minimal ultra-processed food and low to moderate amounts of animal-based foods like fish and dairy, could raise our chances of reaching 70 without developing chronic disease, according to a new study from Harvard researchers.Creative Cat Studio/ShutterstockHealthy aging, as defined by the researchers, means reaching age 70 free of major chronic diseases, with good cognitive, physical, and mental health.“Our findings suggest that dietary patterns rich in plant-based foods, with moderate inclusion of healthy animal-based foods, may promote overall healthy aging and help shape future dietary guidelines,” senior study author Marta Guasch-Ferré said in a press release.Two Diets Linked to Optimal AgingThe study, recently published in Nature Medicine, examined the midlife diets and health outcomes of more than 105,000 middle-aged women and men aged 39 to 69 over 30 years.The team evaluated how effectively the participants adhered to eight different largely-plant-based diets: the Alternative Health Eating Index (AHEI), the Alternative Mediterranean Diet (aMED), the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet (DASH), the MIND diet, the Healthful Plant-Based Diet, the Planetary Health Diet Index, the Empirically Inflammatory Dietary Pattern, and the Empirical Dietary Index for Hyperinsulinemia.Of the participants, 10 percent were identified as aging healthfully and followed the eight diets. Those who closely followed the AEHI and PHDI diets were linked with optimal healthy aging patterns.The AHEI diet was found to be especially beneficial. It was developed to prevent chronic disease and emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, legumes, and healthy fats while limiting red meat, refined grains, and sugar.Participants scoring highest on this diet were found to have an 86 percent greater likelihood of healthy aging by age 70 and a 2.2-fold higher likelihood by age 75 compared to those with the lowest scores. The PHDI diet also emphasizes plant-based foods and reduces animal-based food intake.Other diets researchers looked at that were linked to healthy aging were the aMED which follows the Mediterranean model and the DASH diet. The aMED diet prioritizes olive oil, nuts, whole grains, and moderate fish intake. DASH is known for lowering blood pressure and focuses on fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy.“Maintaining a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, unsaturated fats, nuts, and legumes during mid-life is linked to a higher likelihood of healthy aging along with better cognitive, physical, and mental health,” Guasch-Ferré told The Epoch Times.Conversely, higher consumption of ultra-processed foods, particularly processed meats and sugary beverages, was linked to a decreased chance of aging healthfully.No ‘One Size Fits All’ DietThe findings also suggest that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all diet.“Healthy diets can be adapted to fit individual needs and preferences,” lead author Anne-Julie Tessier, assistant professor at the University of Montreal, stated in the press release.Shelley Balls, registered dietitian nutritionist for Flawless Bloom in Western Wyoming, told The Epoch Times that ultra-processed foods include many convenience snack foods such as potato chips, candy, cookies, and crackers, as well as sweetened beverages such as soda, sweetened tea, and sugar-laden coffees.“I’m not saying you should never have these types of foods and beverages, but I would highly recommend limiting their intake in order to promote overall health,” she said.However, certain ultra-processed foods are healthier than others, she said. Potato chips are high on fats and sodium, making them good once-in-awhile, but sugar sweetened beverage quickly adds up when it comes to sugar and calorie intake.“Even certain diet drinks, although they might not have the calories, could negatively affect digestive health, which is linked to obesity,” she said.Healthy animal-based food also should not be avoided.“Healthy animal-based foods such as Greek yogurt, kefir, salmon, eggs, and other lean cuts of meat provide an abundance of healthful nutrients your body needs to function optimally,” Balls said. “When it comes to promoting overall health, variety is key so excluding certain foods out entirely can make it harder.”Adequate protein intake is also key to promoting healthy aging as “it’s essential in maintaining muscle mass, strength, and function as you age.”The study had some limitations, including that the participants were exclusively health professionals. Researchers suggest that replicating the study among more diverse populations could provide deeper insights into the findings’ broader relevance.However, Guasch-Ferré said that while there may be some differences in overall health, such as access to health care and other factors, “we believe that the biological mechanisms underlying the associations between dietary patterns and healthy aging would be similar in other populations.”According to Balls, “the earlier, the better” when it comes to disease prevention.“One piece of advice I give to even younger kids is what you’re eating today, can affect how you age,” she added. “So moderation and variety are key at all stages of life!” Tyler DurdenFri, 03/28/2025 - 22:35

The vice president said the mineral-rich island was important because if a missile was fired from an enemy country or an enemy submarine into the United States, it would be the people at the base who would alert the U.S. Following Vance’s visit, Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said his country was “open to criticism” but that they did not “appreciate the tone in which it’s being delivered.”Vice President JD Vance on Friday accused Denmark of underinvesting in the security architecture of Greenland as he claimed other European allies had failed to keep pace with defense spending.Trump has repeatedly expressed his desire to gain control of the autonomous Danish territory, describing the prospect as an “absolute necessity” for purposes related to national security.“Denmark hasn’t done a good job at keeping Greenland safe,” Vance told servicemembers at the Pituffik Space Base in Greenland on Friday.“We know that too often our allies in Europe have not kept pace, they haven’t kept pace with military spending and Denmark has not kept pace in devoting the resources necessary to keep this base, to keep our troops, and in my view, to keep the people of Greenland safe from a lot of very aggressive incursions from Russia, China and other nations with interest in this area,” Vance told reporters.The vice president said the mineral-rich island was important because if a missile was fired from an enemy country or an enemy submarine into the United States, it would be the people at the base who would alert the U.S.Jim Watson | Getty ImagesUS Vice President JD Vance (C) poses with Second Lady Usha Vance (2nd L), National Security Advisor Mike Waltz (3rd L), his wife , former homeland security advisor, Julia Nesheiwat (L) and Secretary of Energy Chris Wright (R) as they tour the US military’s Pituffik Space Base on March 28, 2025 in Pituffik, Greenland. “We know that Russia and China and other nations are taking an extraordinary interest in Arctic passageways and Arctic naval routes and indeed in the minerals of the Arctic territories. We need to ensure that America is leading in the Arctic because we know that if America doesn’t, other nations will fill the gap,” he said.Following Vance’s visit, Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said his country was “open to criticism” but that they did not “appreciate the tone in which it’s being delivered.”“This is not how you speak to your close allies,” he said in a video message shared on the social media platform X.“We respect that the United States needs a greater military presence in Greenland, as Vice President Vance mentioned this evening. We, Denmark and Greenland, are very much open to discussing this with you,” Rasmussen said.‘Far fetched’ rhetoricVance’s visit comes as earlier this week Trump reiterated his desire to take over Greenland for national and international security purposes, saying the U.S. would “go as far as we have to go.”“We need Greenland and the world needs us to have Greenland, including Denmark,” he said, referring to the island which is a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark.Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen condemned the comments from Trump, saying the “far-fetched” rhetoric was a further escalation from the U.S.Both the governments of Greenland and Denmark have repeatedly voiced opposition to Trump’s plans, with Mute Egede, the outgoing prime minister of Greenland, earlier this month saying: “Don’t keep treating us with disrespect. Enough is enough.”Elsewhere, Russian President Vladimir Putin this week also warned that it would be a “profound mistake” to dismiss Trump’s effort “as some preposterous talk by the new U.S. administration.”Putin flagged that the U.S. had previously offered to buy Greenland and had plans to control the territory “as far back as the 1860s.”“In short, the United States has serious plans regarding Greenland. These plans have long historical roots, as I have just mentioned, and it is obvious that the United States will continue to consistently advance its geo-strategic, military-political and economic interests in the Arctic,” Putin said.The U.S.’ initial plan for a delegation of officials to visit the island was met with stark criticism from leaders in Denmark and Greenland as Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen claimed the plans were creating “unacceptable pressure.”The trip has since been shortened to a one-day event and has been restricted to a visit of the U.S. Pituffik Space Base on the island, which is located far away from the territory’s cities.Denmark appeared to welcome the changes, with the country’s Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen suggesting they symbolized a de-escalation.— CNBC’s Sam Meredith contributed to this report.

Orlando, March 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PurDentixWhen it comes to oral health, most people think brushing, flossing, and mouthwash are enough. But with a surge of new research linking dental problems to imbalances in the oral microbiome, it's no surprise that a wave of "probiotic dental supplements" is entering the spotlight. One name in particular—PurDentix—has sparked heated conversations across dentist offices (Verified Source), forums, and health communities. Touted as a natural probiotic solution to help restore gum health, fight bad breath, and support overall mouth hygiene from within, this formula has quickly built a loyal following. But does PurDentix really live up to the buzz?Some experts are calling it a "quiet revolution in dental care," while others remain cautious. With so many glowing reviews and success stories floating around, it's easy to wonder whether PurDentix is the real deal—or just another trend riding the wave of wellness marketing. In this deep-dive PurDentix review, we'll explore what dentists are really saying about this supplement, dissect the science behind its formulation, break down its ingredients, and take a close look at the real customer results (Verified).Is PurDentix everything your smile needs—or just clever packaging? Let's find out.What Is PurDentix? A Probiotic Revolution for Oral HealthPurDentix is rapidly becoming the gold standard for oral probiotics in 2025, praised by both consumers and dental experts for its radically different approach to oral care. Unlike traditional toothpaste or chemical-heavy mouth rinses that simply mask problems or provide surface-level cleaning, PurDentix dives deep into the root causes of oral imbalances. At its core, PurDentix is a daily probiotic formula specifically crafted to restore balance to the oral microbiome—a complex network of good and bad bacteria that determine your mouth's health. This approach doesn't just make your mouth feel clean; it helps create the conditions for long-term dental resilience, healthier gums, and stronger teeth from within.What separates PurDentix from other oral health solutions is its laser focus on microbiome optimization. Your mouth isn't meant to be sterile. It's supposed to host a variety of helpful bacteria that aid in digestion, neutralize acids, and keep harmful microbes in check. Purdentix Acknowledges This Biological Reality By Using Targeted Probiotic Strains That Naturally Live In A Healthy Mouth (Official). These strains crowd out cavity-causing bacteria, reduce bad breath at the microbial level, and foster an environment where your gums and teeth can thrive. It's not just oral care—it's oral rehabilitation. More and more people are beginning to understand that brushing and flossing alone can't fix a disrupted microbiome. That's where PurDentix comes in—as a science-backed revolution for truly holistic dental health.Why Dentists Are Taking PurDentix Seriously in 2025The dental industry is undergoing a massive shift in 2025—and at the heart of this revolution is the rising credibility of products like PurDentix. For decades, oral care was limited to physical scraping, chemical whitening, and temporary symptom masking. But new research is turning heads. Peer-reviewed studies and conferences across the dental community now highlight the central role of the oral microbiome in long-term oral health. Dentists, especially forward-thinking practitioners, are now beginning to see probiotics not as fringe remedies, but as essential allies in modern dental care. PurDentix has become a standout in this space, earning recognition in 2025 for its clinically targeted formula and microbiome-first design.According to Dr. Marissa Valez, a practicing dentist in Portland with over 15 years of experience, "PurDentix is the first supplement I've seen that mirrors what science is telling us. We now know that oral health isn't just about cleaning—it's about rebalancing. This is the future of dental care." Dentists are impressed by the combination of clinically researched strains like Lactobacillus paracasei, which has shown potential to reduce gum inflammation, and BLIS K12, which supports fresher breath and immune defense in the mouth. They're not just recommending PurDentix for reactive problems—they're encouraging its daily use to maintain oral equilibrium in patients of all ages.>>PurDentix Reviews Are In! Over 4,000 5-star ratings. Click here to see what everyone's saying.In stark contrast to the outdated model of endlessly treating recurring issues, many dental professionals now suggest using PurDentix as part of a preventive strategy. It's no longer just about cleaning teeth during checkups—it's about equipping patients with the biological tools to maintain oral health in between visits. With thousands of dentist-verified users and more endorsements emerging by the day, the clinical respect for PurDentix is no longer just anecdotal—it's becoming institutional.Real PurDentix Reviews – What Customers Are Actually SayingThe best way to judge any supplement—especially one in the crowded dental space—is by hearing from real people who've used it. PurDentix reviews don't sound like generic one-liners. They're filled with emotion, transformation, and, most importantly, credibility. Here are 6 detailed stories that show how PurDentix is helping everyday people restore their oral health.Julie M., 52, Seattle, WA "I've had recurring gum infections for over a decade. Even after expensive deep cleanings, the bleeding and puffiness would come back. I found PurDentix through a blog post and decided to give it a shot—skeptically, I'll admit. By the end of week three, my gums were no longer tender. By month two, I was seeing pink, firm tissue again. It's been life-changing."Daniel K., 37, Brooklyn, NY "As a coffee lover and occasional smoker, I struggled with bad breath that mints couldn't fix. A friend in dental school recommended PurDentix. Within the first week, I noticed my breath stayed fresh all day—even after my second espresso. It's been four months now, and my mouth feels cleaner than it ever has."Sharon B., 66, Naples, FL "I'm retired and didn't want to keep spending money on $150 dental visits every other month. I was skeptical about probiotics for teeth, but PurDentix really works. My hygienist even asked what I was doing differently. She said there was less tartar and my gums looked firmer. I just smiled and said, 'PurDentix.'">>Join Thousands Of Real Users Improving Their Gum Health And Smile With Purdentix. Get Started Today.Kevin L., 29, Austin, TX "I've had four root canals and figured I was doomed to dental problems for life. I came across PurDentix reviews on a Reddit thread and tried it out of desperation. I'm blown away. I don't get those weird gum throbs anymore, my breath is way better, and even my teeth look healthier. I won't stop using this stuff."Tasha W., 34, Atlanta, GA "My 9-year-old always commented on my ‘stinky breath' during bedtime stories. That broke me. I saw an ad for PurDentix and figured, why not? It's now been six weeks, and not only is my breath better, but I feel confident again. I no longer cover my mouth when laughing. Thank you, PurDentix."Samir H., 45, Chicago, IL "I've tried oil pulling, expensive fluoride rinses, and even prescription mouthwash. None of it worked like PurDentix. The results aren't just noticeable—they're sustainable. My teeth feel strong, clean, and polished even between brushing. It's like I reset my mouth biology.">> Experience The Transformation For Yourself – Get Purdentix While It's Still In Stock For 75% Off.The Benefits of Using PurDentix Daily – What to ExpectWhen people ask, "What can I expect from taking PurDentix every day?" The answer isn't just "better breath" or "whiter teeth." The benefits of consistent PurDentix use go far beyond superficial improvements. This probiotic dental formula supports real biological changes that compound over time—delivering results that traditional oral care products simply can't match.Let's start with fresher breath. Within the first 7 days, most users notice a major improvement in how their breath smells—morning and night. That's because PurDentix doesn't just cover up odors with mint—it rebalances bacteria populations, eliminating the sulfur-producing strains responsible for chronic halitosis. Whether you're dealing with post-coffee breath, smoker's breath, or just a dry mouth problem, this shift happens quickly once beneficial bacteria dominate.By 30 days, less plaque becomes another visible benefit. Users report a cleaner feeling between dental visits and even note that their toothbrush stays cleaner. This isn't magic—it's microbial science. Purdentix Reviews Explain How Regular Use Helps Reduce The Biofilm That Plaque Needs To Stick To Your Teeth And Harden Into Tartar (Verified And Confirmed).Gum strength is another major benefit. Red, puffy, or bleeding gums become noticeably calmer after 3–4 weeks of consistent use. PurDentix's probiotic formula reduces inflammation at the gum line, encouraging reattachment and ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

'Indirect Negotiations' On Nuclear Issue Possible: Iran Finally Replies In Letter To Trump Iran has finally issued a formal response to US President Donald Trump's letter unveiled early this month which was addressed to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. The Trump letter had urged fresh nuclear negotiations, but was coupled with statements from the White House threatening attack if Tehran pursues atomic weapons.The Islamic Republic in a formal letter issued to the White House in response says it is willing to enter "indirect" negotiations with Washington."Iran’s formal response to the letter from US President Donald Trump has been duly sent via Oman," Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told IRNA on Thursday. "The official response comprises a letter wherein our viewpoints regarding the status quo and Mr. Trump’s letter have been fully laid out and relayed to the other side."Getty ImagesThe FM said that while no direct official talks can be held so long as Trump keeps his "maximum pressure" sanctions regimen in place, it remains that "Indirect negotiations, though, can continue, as they existed in the past." "In circumstances where there is ‘maximum pressure,’ no one in their sound mind would enter into direct talks. The format of negotiations is always relevant in diplomatic relations ... For now, our tactic is to have indirect negotiations," Araghchi explained.In early March, Trump had unveiled before reporters that he had written Iran a letter, saying "I hope you're going to negotiate because if we have to go in militarily, it's going to be a terrible thing for them. There are two ways in which Iran can be handled – militarily, or you make a deal."According to Axios, the US has lately built up military assets in the Mideast region with an eye toward Iran:In recent days, the U.S. military sent several B-2 stealth bombers to the Diego Garcia military base in the Indian Ocean in a deployment a U.S. official said was "not disconnected" from Trump's two-month deadline.The B-2 bombers can carry huge bunker buster bombs that would be a key element in any possible military action against Iran's underground nuclear facilities.A spokesperson for U.S. Strategic Command confirmed the deployment to Axios and said Stratcom "routinely conducts global operations in coordination with other combatant commands, services, and participating U.S. government agencies to deter, detect and, if necessary, defeat strategic attacks against the United States and its allies."Just last week Ayatollah Khamenei warned that the US would "a severe slap" and "crushing blow" if it dared carry out any attacks against the Iran.Iran has long complained that it can't take US commitments seriously anymore, after the prior Trump White House unilaterally pulled the US out of the 2015 JCPOA nuclear deal.

China Is Taking War To Earth Orbits: A 'Space Pearl Harbor' Is On The Way Authored by Gordon Chang via The Gatestone Institute,"With our commercial assets, we have observed five different objects in space maneuvering in and out and around each other in synchronicity and in control," the U.S. Space Force's Vice Chief of Space Operations Gen. Michael Guetlein told the 16th annual McAleese Defense Programs conference in Arlington, Virginia on March 18. "That's what we call dogfighting in space. They are practicing tactics, techniques and procedures to do on-orbit space operations from one satellite to another."Guetlein's stark comment about China signals a break with the past. "This marks the end of the Western-American-liberal dream of nations leaving wars on Earth so they can cooperate in space to advance humanity," Richard Fisher of the International Assessment and Strategy Center told Gatestone after the general's widely publicized remarks. "Communist China has now taken war to the heavens, to low earth orbit, and very likely, will take war to the moon, Mars, and beyond. The heavens are no longer safe for the democracies."Space is now a highly contested domain, but it wasn't always this way. "We told ourselves we would be the dominant power forever," Brandon Weichert, author of Winning Space: How America Remains a Superpower, said to Gatestone. "We coasted on that notion for far too long. Rising powers, notably China and Russia, saw how reliant we were on space—and how poorly defended our systems were. Our access to the strategic high ground is now more threatened than ever before."As Weichert points out, "bureaucratic inertia and a lack of visionary leadership from both political parties" allowed China and Russia to develop the capabilities to threaten America in space.There was another party at fault: The U.S. military failed to protest when it could see there was an obvious threat. "There was a gentlemen's agreement until recent that we didn't mess with each other's space systems," Guetlein said. "We didn't jam them, we didn't spoof them, we didn't lase them, we just kept them safe."Why was the U.S. so gentlemanly? Presidents believed that because the U.S. had more space assets than others, it was not in America's interest to trigger a race to build weapons to destroy those assets. Yet this view, appearing commonsense at first glance, was naïve: It was apparent even then that neither China nor Russia could be enticed into good behavior. Generals and admirals should have sounded the warning.There was a lot to warn about. On January 11, 2007, for instance, China demonstrated its intentions by launching a modified ground-based DF-21 missile to destroy an old Chinese weather satellite.In 2022, a Chinese satellite "grappled" a defunct Chinese satellite and towed it to a "graveyard orbit."Moreover, as Fisher notes, China had already configured its one large orbiting platform, the Tiangong Space Station, for military missions as well as civilian ones. One of its modules can launch either very small satellites that can perform interception missions or satellites carrying powerful laser and microwave weapons that can destroy satellites in multiple orbits.What was the American response to the obvious Chinese advances in space-warfare capabilities? Vice President Kamala Harris in April 2022 announced a unilateral moratorium on ground-launched anti-satellite missile tests, in the hopes that other nations would follow suit.With this posture, it is no wonder why America's lead in space warfare—if it exists—is narrowing.Now, China is making fast progress in building space weapons. "The Chinese ISR"—intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance—"capabilities are become very capable," said Guetlein. "They have gone from what we used to call a 'Kill Chain' to a 'Kill Mesh.'" A Kill Mesh combines ISR satellites with an array of weapons systems.The Chinese array appears impressive. As Fisher points out, the People's Liberation Army has developed ground-based ASAT—anti-satellite—interceptors to destroy satellites in both low earth orbit and much higher medium earth orbits. At the same time, China, as Guetlein's comments make clear, is working on "co-orbital" interceptors, satellites that can follow, approach, dock with, or use robotic arms to grapple other satellites into useless orbits.For the future, Fisher reports, China is developing large, unmanned space planes that can re-enter the atmosphere to maneuver toward a new orbit and then relaunch into space to deploy energy and missile weapons. The PLA also appears to be working on large combat platforms that can attack satellite targets in multiple orbits. Expect the Chinese military also to deploy clusters of combat satellites to attack the Lunar and Martian satellite networks of the future."The recent demonstration of Chinese 'dogfighting' capabilities in space is an indicator that Beijing means to use force on earth," says Weichert. "By targeting sensitive U.S. military satellites, the People's Liberation Army can render us deaf, dumb, and blind, long before it strikes."The Chinese are evidently planning to blind not only America's military but also America's civilian society, which is heavily dependent on space assets. Almost nothing modern in America will work when the Chinese are finished attacking in the heavens.As Weichert said, "A space Pearl Harbor is at hand." Tyler DurdenFri, 03/28/2025 - 21:45
SHANGHAI, March 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shanghai Junshi Biosciences Co., Ltd ("Junshi Biosciences," HKEX: 1877; SSE: 688180), a leading innovation-driven biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel therapies, announced its financial results for the full year of 2024 and provided corporate updates.FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTSTotal revenue of Junshi Biosciences was approximately RMB1,948 million in 2024, representing an increase of approximately 30% compared to 2023, which was mainly due to the increase in revenue from pharmaceutical products, in particular: the domestic sales revenue of our core product, toripalimab, was approximately RMB1,501 million, representing an increase of approximately 66% compared to 2023.Total research and development ("R&D") expenses of the company were approximately RMB1,275 million in 2024, representing a decrease of approximately 34% compared to 2023. The decrease in R&D expenses was mainly due to the company's cost control policy and efforts to optimize resource allocation and focus on R&D pipelines with greater potential. In addition, a number of clinical trials of our core product, toripalimab, successively met the primary endpoints, which also contributed to the natural decline of R&D expenditure.Loss attributable to owners of the company decreased to RMB1,282 million in 2024, representing a decrease of approximately RMB999 million or approximately 44% compared to 2023.As of the end of 2024, the company's aggregate balance of bank balances and cash and financial products was approximately RMB2,917 million, ensuring a relatively sufficient cash position to support the company's development.BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTSDuring 2024, our commitment to addressing "unmet medical needs" has driven original, innovative and breakthrough progress in the discovery, R&D and commercialization of innovative therapies and drugs through accelerating international development. Here are the notable achievements and milestones:Advancements in the pipeline: Junshi Biosciences' innovative R&D field has expanded from monoclonal antibodies to the research and development of various drug modalities, including small molecule drugs, polypeptide drugs, antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), bi-specific or multi-specific antibodies, bispecific antibody drug conjugates, fusion protein and nucleic acid drugs, as well as the exploration of next-generation innovative therapies, including cancer and autoimmune diseases. Our product pipelines cover five major therapeutic areas, including malignant tumors, autoimmune diseases, chronic metabolic diseases, neurologic diseases and infectious diseases. A total of four drugs have been commercialized, around 30 assets are undergoing clinical trials, and over 20 drug candidates are at the preclinical drug development stage.In January 2024, Coherus BioSciences, a partner of Junshi Biosciences, announced that toripalimab was available for access and administration in the United States. Prior to this, toripalimab (US trade name: LOQTORZI®) was approved for marketing by the US Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") in October 2023, and is the first drug for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma ("NPC") in the United States. At present, it is also the only preferred drug recommended in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network ("NCCN") Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for Head and Neck Cancers 2025.V1 for the treatment of recurrent/ metastatic NPC across all lines.In January 2024, the new drug application (the "NDA") for toripalimab for the treatment of NPC was accepted by the Singapore Health Sciences Authority (the "HSA"). In March 2025, the NDA for toripalimab (Singapore trade name: LOQTORZI®) in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine for the first-line treatment of adult patients with recurrent, not amenable to surgery or radiotherapy, or metastatic NPC has been approved by the HSA. Toripalimab has become the first and only approved immuno-oncology treatment for NPC in Singapore.In April 2024, the Japanese Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (the "PMDA") agreed that the company may proceed with a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, international ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

President Donald Trump commuted the criminal fraud sentence of Ozy Media founder Carlos Watson on Friday, just as Watson was due to begin serving a 116-month prison term in California for his multi-million-dollar scheme.Trump also commuted the sentence of probation imposed on Ozy Media for its related conviction in the case, according to a source familiar with the situation.Watson was convicted at trial in Brooklyn federal court in last July of conspiracy to commit securities fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud and aggravated identity theft.The 55-year-old was sentenced in December.In February, a federal judge ordered Watson and Ozy to pay almost $60 million in forfeiture and more than $36 million in restitution.When Watson was sentenced, then-Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Breon Peace said, “Carlos Watson orchestrated a years-long, audacious scheme to defraud investors and lenders to his company, Ozy Media, out of tens of millions of dollars.”Prosecutors said that Watson and his co-conspirators between 2018 and 2021 defrauded investors by misrepresenting Ozy’s financial performance, its ongoing business relationships and its acquisition prospects, as well as its contract negotiations.Matthew Eisman | Getty ImagesFILE PHOTO: OZY FEST 2018 at Rumsey Playfield, Central Park on July 21, 2018 in New York City.Ozy abruptly shut down in October 2021, after The New York Times reported that the company’s chief operating officer, Samir Rao, had impersonated a YouTube executive on a conference call with Goldman Sachs.The investment bank was considering a $40 million investment in Ozy at the time.This is breaking news.

What can Venus-like exoplanets, also known as exoVenuses, teach us about our own solar system and potentially finding life beyond Earth, and how can the planned Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) provide these insights?

The NBA may soon be significantly expanding its presence in European basketball, in the form of partnering with FIBA on a new league that the sides have been talking about for many years.Specifics are few, with the initial target — for now — being that it would be a 16-team league. But the announcement made Thursday by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and FIBA secretary general Andreas Zagklis is a major step forward after a long process of the sides going back and forth with ideas about what might work.The league would likely use FIBA rules, such as a 40-minute game instead of the NBA’s 48-minute model, Silver said. But much of the other details — who, when, where — will be determined in the months ahead.“We feel now is the time to move to that next stage,” Silver said, noting that NBA owners offered “enthusiastic support” for such a move.The NBA and FIBA, the sport’s global governing body, were in discussions for some time about adding either an annual competition in Europe or having an NBA-operated league there. It was a topic at a Board of Governors meeting this past September, one where Zagklis took part.Zagklis was back for this meeting, and clearly things were trending this way since at least last summer if not even longer. “Coming out of the most successful World Cup and Olympics ever, we also believe it is the right time to take the next step for club basketball,” Zagklis said.In January, speaking at the NBA Paris Games — when the league took advantage of the trip to France to meet with European stakeholders on the topic of the future of basketball on that continent — Silver said he believes the NBA remains “on track” in the process of expanding its footprint in Europe. That was also when he said the league’s governors would be briefed further at the March meeting.“The response we’ve gotten from the marketplace is very positive,” Silver said.Zagklis said FIBA’s leadership also unanimously agrees that it’s the right time to partner with the NBA on a new league.“Our role as a federation is to unite the basketball ecosystem,” Zagklis said.

On Saturday, March 29, a solar eclipse will darken the skies. Unlike the “Great American Eclipse” of 2024, though, this will not be a total eclipse; instead, a partial eclipse will be visible in the early morning hours in parts of the northern hemisphere.A partial eclipse isn’t as dramatic as a total eclipse, but it’s still worth seeing. While the sun will not be fully obscured, with proper eye protection, you will be able to see the moon take a bite out of the sun. Because the eclipse will occur in many places during sunrise, viewers may get the chance to see the famed “devil horns” — the crescent of solar light emerging from behind the moon.When can you watch this partial solar eclipse, and those devil horns? Let’s talk about how to safely watch this eclipse.What areas will experience the partial solar eclipse, and when?The partial solar eclipse will be visible in areas of the northern hemisphere. It will be visible at sunrise in eastern North America and sunset in Siberia, Russia on Saturday, March 29. In Europe, it can be viewed around mid-morning. But the event’s footprint will be limited: No eclipse will be visible west of Toronto, Canada, and Washington, DC in North America.NASAThis global map of the partial solar eclipse from NASA is more than a little confusing, but here’s how to read it. The yellow curve is the path of the partial solar eclipse, moving from west to east. The lighter colored yellow curves give the percent obscuration of the sun. (In other words, how much of the sun is covered by the moon depends on where you are and when you’re looking.)Most of Europe will only see around a 20 percent obscuration (with the exception of Greenland and Iceland), for example, while the extreme northeastern part of the United States will see up to 89 percent of the sun covered. The Nunavik region of Quebec will see maximum obscuration of 94 percent. The green lines on the map show the eclipse’s progress over time. Times are given in UTC, which is four hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time.However, sunrise and sunset makes things more complicated. This is depicted on the map by the orange loop. The left side of the loop (over the Great Lakes in the United States) shows where the eclipse ends at sunrise. Therefore, the eclipse is not visible west of that orange line. The right side of the loop is where the eclipse begins at sunrise.That means to see the maximum partial solar eclipse at sunrise, it’s best to be along that blue line running down the middle of the orange loop. (It’s worth noting that the eclipse will also be visible across a narrow part of Siberia, but at sunset rather than sunrise — that’s what the other half of the orange loop depicts).If it seems incredibly confusing, that’s because it is indeed incredibly confusing. Some places with maximum obscuration will have a shorter eclipse duration because the partial eclipse will start before sunrise. The sun will also be low to the horizon in North America, so any viewing location will need to be above tall trees with a clear view of sunrise. In Europe, the viewing locations will be easier because the sun will be higher in the sky — but the sun will not be as obscured.For example, in Bar Harbor, Maine, the sun will rise at 6:19AM, and the maximum eclipse will be at 6:22AM, with 80 percent of the sun obscured. The partial eclipse will end at 7:11 am. Technically though, the eclipse will begin at 5:26 am ET, but because that's before sunrise, Mainers will be cheated out of about half their potential eclipse viewing time.Moving south, the best view will be through coastal New England, then down through Boston, New York City and Philadelphia.The path basically ends in Washington, DC, where just 1.2 percent of the sun will be obscured at 6:59AM ET.NASAAccording to Time and Date, only 44,800 people will see a 90 percent partial eclipse, while 3,820,000 will see an 80 percent. That’s a far cry from the 30 million people in the path of totality for the 2024 total solar eclipse.Will a total solar eclipse be visible in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?No, there is nowhere on Earth that a total solar eclipse will be visible for this event. For any solar eclipse to happen, the sun, the moon and the Earth need to line up. However, because the moon doesn’t orbit in the same plane as the sun and the Earth, eclipses are rare.A partial solar eclipse, like the one occurring on March 29, occurs when the moon passes between the sun and the Earth, but it’s not perfectly lined up. As a result, the sun will have a crescent shape — as if the moon took a bite out of the sun — but it will never be fully obscured as it is during a total eclipse.How long will the partial eclipse last?The visible duration of the eclipse depends on where you are, and what time sunrise (or sunset) is at your location. But globally, the eclipse will begin at 4:50 am ET (8:50AM UTC). The maximum eclipse will occur at 6:47AM ET (10:47AM UTC), and the event will end at 8:43AM ET (12:43PM UTC). Keep in mind, though, that this doesn’t mean the entire partial eclipse will be almost four hours long in any given location because this is just for the extreme edges of the event.What’s the weather forecast along the viewing line?It’s spring across the Northern Hemisphere, which generally means unfavorable weather for any sky viewing. The Weather Channel’s senior digital meteorologist Chris Dolce said that cloud cover, and even rain and snow, may be likely in the northeastern United States during the eclipse, so it’s not great news there, unfortunately.If it’s just a partial eclipse, do I need eye protection?Anything that involves looking at the sun, even just 5 or 10 percent of the sun, requires eye protection. The sun can damage your retinas quickly, painlessly and often irreversibly.If you have solar viewers left from the 2024 eclipse, and they are undamaged, they’ll work just fine for this one too. According to the American Astronomical Society (AAS), modern eclipse glasses do not expire. It’s worth checking them out thoroughly, though, making sure there are no rips, tears or scratches across the lenses and that the filters and lenses are still attached to the frame.Solar eclipse glasses can be difficult to purchase at the last minute, so it’s always good to keep them around. However, if you donated or trashed your previous pair (or didn’t buy them in the first place), you can buy them online — with some caution. Make sure any solar viewers conform to the ISO 12312-2:2015(E) international safety standard, and check the manufacturer against this list of brands from the AAS. Counterfeit eclipse glasses were rampant leading up the 2024 eclipse.Celestron is a reliable manufacturer of solar viewer equipment, and the company’s eclipse glasses are readily available on Amazon for a low price, though you’ll need fast shipping at this late dateWhat are some cool things to look out for during this eclipse?A unique feature of solar eclipses during sunrise is you may be able to see the famed “devil horns,” depending on where you are. When the sun rises during an eclipse (and therefore the sun is low on the horizon), as the crescent sun rises, it can look like devil horns coming up out of the ground.An earlier sunrise partial eclipse over Rice Lake, Ontario shows the "devil horns" phenomenon.John Fader via Getty ImagesIt’s best to target Maine, New Brunswick, and Quebec (along the blue line in the NASA map) to see this phenomenon.Additionally, the sun is currently at or near solar maximum, which means that our star is basically at the peak of its 11-year solar cycle. Scientists determined that the sun hit the highest level of solar activity in October 2024, and this will continue for a year or so. This means that there may be sunspots visible on the surface of the sun when the eclipse hits. (For context, here’s what the sun looks like right now, courtesy of NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory.) If you have solar binoculars or a solar telescope, this will make them much easier to see.Can I just point a telescope or camera at the sun?If you’re asking yourself this question, you probably already know the answer: Nope! Not without a solar filter. Whether it’s a phone camera, binoculars, a telescope or a mirrorless camera, the sun can do extreme damage to this kind of equipment. (On Apollo 12, astronaut Alan Bean accidentally pointed a television camera at the sun, irreparably damaging it. Don’t do this!)You can pick up solar filters at a camera store or online, or in a pinch, you can just use an extra pair of solar viewers. Simply remove the film and tape it over your smartphone camera, but don’t look at the sun when aiming the camera unless you’re wearing solar viewers as well. If you are interested in looking at the sun regularly, a pair of solar binoculars with a permanently attached filter is a great idea.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/science/space/partial-solar-eclipse-where-and-when-to-see-the-sunrise-event-on-march-29-144238528.html?src=rss

Ubisoft on Thursday announced it’s setting up a new subsidiary that will focus on its gaming brands Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six. Chinese technology giant Tencent will invest 1.16 billion euros ($1.25 billion) into the unit.Ubisoft on Thursday announced that it’s creating a new gaming subsidiary with Chinese technology giant Tencent investing 1.16 billion euros ($1.25 billion) into the unit.The subsidiary will focus on Ubisoft’s best-known games brands, including Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six, according to the company.It will “focus on building game ecosystems designed to become truly evergreen and multi-platform,” Ubisoft said in a press release Thursday.“Backed by greater investment and boosted creative capacities, it will drive further increases in quality of narrative solo experiences, expand multiplayer offerings with increased frequency of content release, introduce free-to-play touchpoints, and integrate more social features,” the company added.The investment from Tencent values the new subsidiary at 4 billion euros, Ubisoft said, implying a 4x multiple based on its average sales from full-year 2023 to 2025.“It highlights the strong value of Ubisoft’s IPs, significantly reinforces its balance sheet, and enables the company to continue its efforts to become a more agile organization, unleash the full creative potential of its teams and better align its resources with the constantly evolving expectations of players,” Ubisoft said.The move follows months of speculation about Ubisoft’s future. In January, Ubisoft appointed advisors to review its strategic options, stoking rumors about a potential sale. Earlier this month, Bloomberg reported that the games publisher was looking to bring in external investment in a new entity including some of its core intellectual property.That followed reporting from Bloomberg last year that Tencent was discussing a possible take-private deal with Ubisoft’s founding Guillemot family.News of the transaction also arrives a week after Ubisoft released Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the latest title in its best-selling franchise. The game was met with generally positive reviews from critics, garnering an average score of 82 on review aggregation site Metacritic.

Ferrari said Thursday it will raise prices by 10% on certain models after April 1 in response to new U.S. auto tariffs, adding up to $50,000 to the price of a typical Ferrari.The Maranello, Italy-based sports car maker said prices will remain unchanged for all cars imported before April 2. After that, the “commercial terms” for three of its model families — the Ferrari 296, SF90 and Roma — will “remain unchanged,” the company said in a release. Yet its more popular models, including the Purosangue SUV, the 12Cilindiri and the F80, will get price increases of up to 10%. For the Purosangue, which starts at about $430,000, that price hike amounts to about $43,000. For the limited edition F80, which starts at over $3.5 million, the increase will add more than $350,000 to the price tag.President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced tariffs of 25% on all cars not made in the U.S. Ferrari produces all of its cars at its Maranello factory. Last year, Ferrari produced 13,752 cars. The company plans to launch its first all-electric Ferrari in October.It’s unclear what impact the tariffs will have on Ferrari sales, since there is already a waiting list of more than a year for most of its vehicles. And Ferrari buyers are generally wealthy enough to easily absorb the price hikes.Ferrari also said Thursday it “confirms its financial targets for 2025” but added that there is a “potential risk of 50 basis points on profitability percentage margins.”In an interview with CNBC this month, Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna said that even though Ferrari buyers are wealthy, the company has to be sensitive to passing on too much of the added cost of tariffs.“When we look at the client, we consider that these people to buy a Ferrari, they have to work,” he said. “We have to respect them. Because for us, the most important thing is the client. So we need to make sure that we treat them in the right way.”Shares of Ferrari were slightly higher Thursday morning, while shares of the U.S. “Big Three” automakers were largely lower.

Studies that explore how the denser sections of atoms, known as atomic nuclei, interact with neutrons (i.e., particles with no electric charge) can have valuable implications both for the understanding of these atoms' underlying physics and for the development of nuclear energy solutions. A process that is central to these interactions is neutron capture, which entails the absorption of a neutron by a nucleus, followed by the emission of gamma-rays.

In the 1990s, earning six figures was a clear marker of upper-class wealth. Today, it’s often just enough to be considered middle class.In fact, the upper bound of what qualifies as middle class now exceeds $100,000 in every U.S. state, according to a SmartAsset analysis of 2023 income data from the U.S. Census Bureau. The report uses Pew Research’s definition of middle class: households earning between two-thirds and double the median income in their state.That means even a $150,000 salary — once a clear marker of affluence — still lands within the middle-class range in nearly half the country.Higher costs are eating into bigger paychecksWages have risen in recent years, but much of that growth has been offset by higher costs for essentials like housing, food and transportation. Since early 2020, home prices have jumped 52%, food costs are up 30% and overall inflation has climbed 25%, according to consumer price index data.That helps explain why many six-figure earners say they feel stretched. Two-thirds of middle-class Americans said they were struggling in a 2024 survey from the National True Cost of Living Coalition, and most didn’t expect their situation to improve.To give a sense of how far $150,000 goes, here’s a look at the 23 states where that salary still falls within the middle-class range, listed in alphabetical order:Alaska Low end of middle class: $57,748 High end of middle class: $173,262 Median household income: $86,631Arizona Low end of middle class: $51,538 High end of middle class: $154,630 Median household income: $77,315California Low end of middle class: $63,674 High end of middle class: $191,042 Median household income: $95,521Colorado Low end of middle class: $61,934 High end of middle class: $185,822 Median household income: $92,911Connecticut Low end of middle class: $61,104 High end of middle class: $183,330 Median household income: $91,665Delaware Low end of middle class: $54,235 High end of middle class: $162,722 Median household income: $81,361Hawaii Low end of middle class: $63,542 High end of middle class: $190,644 Median household income: $95,322Illinois Low end of middle class: $53,532 High end of middle class: $160,612 Median household income: $80,306Maryland Low end of middle class: $65,779 High end of middle class: $197,356 Median household income: $98,678Massachusetts Low end of middle class: $66,565 High end of middle class: $199,716 Median household income: $99,858Minnesota Low end of middle class: $56,718 High end of middle class: $170,172 Median household income: $85,086Nevada Low end of middle class: $50,904 High end of middle class: $152,728 Median household income: $76,364New Hampshire Low end of middle class: $64,552 High end of middle class: $193,676 Median household income: $96,838New Jersey Low end of middle class: $66,514 High end of middle class: $199,562 Median household income: $99,781New York Low end of middle class: $54,725 High end of middle class: $164,190 Median household income: $82,095North Dakota Low end of middle class: $51,012 High end of middle class: $153,050 Median household income: $76,525Oregon Low end of middle class: $53,435 High end of middle class: $160,320 Median household income: $80,160Rhode Island Low end of middle class: $56,642 High end of middle class: $169,944 Median household income: $84,972Texas Low end of middle class: $50,515 High end of middle class: $151,560 Median household income: $75,780Utah Low end of middle class: $62,274 High end of middle class: $186,842 Median household income: $93,421Vermont Low end of middle class: $54,135 High end of middle class: $162,422 Median household income: $81,211Virginia Low end of middle class: $59,948 High end of middle class: $179,862 Median household income: $89,931Washington Low end of middle class: $63,064 High end of middle class: $189,210 Median household income: $94,605Want to earn some extra money on the side?

During today's Switch-focused Nintendo Direct livestream, Nintendo revealed a new trailer for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. The trailer was a narrated deep dive with lots of gameplay detailing the new game. The game is still slated for 2025, but no new release date was given.The trailer showed Samus exploring a jungle planet with a colossal tree at the center. She has to scan stone figures to make her way through the thick forest while dealing with hostile bug-like aliens. But she'll be helped along by new Psychic abilities, like telekinesis for puzzle-solving and making her way through doors. It seems as if some psychic force is helping her along, and at one point it calls her a "Chosen One." The trailer ends with a brief look at a slick new red and white suit.The wait for Metroid Prime 4 has been excruciating for fans of the franchise. The game was first announced during E3 2017, but there was a prolonged period of radio silence after that initial announcement. Development on the game was reportedly rebooted in 2019, and Nintendo went silent for several years on the status of the next Metroid Prime adventure, filling the gap with Metroid Dread in 2021 and a remaster of the first Metroid Prime game in 2023.2024 also saw a trailer for Metroid Prime 4 released, but it was light on details at the time. Check out all the news from the latest Nintendo Direct.

What if I told you that you could wield a power so devastating that its cooldown would have to be measured IN HOURS? You’d probably be interested, and rightfully so. That’s exactly what the new Rune Slayer update provided us with, so to get you ready and save you time, I prepped a guide on how to get all curses and blessings in Rune Slayer. Hint: It ain’t as grindy as it sounds at first. Table of contentsWhat Are Curses and Blessings in Rune Slayer All Curses and Blessings in Rune SlayerHow to Get Curse of the Dune Dragon ( Demon Faction Exclusive )How to Get Blessing of the Cho ( Holy Faction Exclusive )Will There Be More Curses and Blessings in Rune Slayer? What Are Curses and Blessings in Rune Slayer To put it simply, curses and blessings are summons that can be used by the Demon Sect and Holy Sect, respectively. Consider them as the ultimate powers members of these factions can use, exclusive only to their sect-mates (no, I’m not gonna say ‘fellow acolytes’). This system is still very new and there are already rumors of buffs coming to existing curses and blessings. Likewise, there are differences between curses and blessings, but they share some common features, such as: You need to kill bosses. It wouldn’t make sense if you could just waltz into any random area and get it all of a sudden, right? Absolutely. So, whether it’s the current ones or curses and blessings coming in the future, you can expect a challenge. Fairy requirement. Depending on the faction, you need a Fairy. Keep in mind that the most recent update made it so you need to be level 15 to get a Fairy pet, so it’s not really possible to speedrun things as efficiently as before. Rare drops. It’s expected that all curses and blessings in Rune Slayer will be Legendary items, so expect to grind at least for a bit. Fortunately, the new update also improved Legendary item drops by a whopping 400%, so at least statistically, the grind will be four times faster than before. So, with that in mind, let’s take a look at all the curses and blessings in Rune Slayer, what they do and how to get them without too much effort. All Curses and Blessings in Rune Slayer At the time of writing, there are only two available curses and blessings, more specifically–one of each. So, let’s take a look at each, along with some more info on how to snatch them. How to Get Curse of the Dune Dragon (Demon Faction Exclusive)Screenshot by DestructoidIf you're part of the Demon Sect and looking for a high-risk, high-reward ability, Curse of the Dune Dragon might be exactly what you need. This devastating spell lets you channel your own life force and Focus to unleash a monstrous attack on a single target — the kind of move that can turn the tide of a battle... if timed right. It summons a big dragon that freezes enemies in place and deals massive AoE damage. Screenshot by DestructoidTo use it, you’ll need to have a Fire Fairy as your active pet, and your Magic stat must be at 7 or higher. Be warned: this isn’t a casual ability you can spam. Each cast drains 100 Focus and around 50% of your HP, and it comes with a hefty cooldown of 60 minutes. You’ll want to save it for a key moment when it’ll really count. For instance, it’s great as an AoE blast when you get surrounded in Balgaron's Chasm. The ability can only be unlocked by acquiring the Curse: Eclipse Scroll, a rare drop from the Goblin King boss in the Withered Thicket. It’s not a guaranteed drop, so you might have to take him down a few times before luck’s on your side.Screenshot by DestructoidHow to Get Blessing of the Cho (Holy Faction Exclusive)Screenshot by DestructoidFor Holy Sect players who prefer summoning reinforcements rather than sacrificing themselves in battle, Blessing of the Cho offers a powerful way to gain the upper hand. When used, this ability calls forth a mystical creature to fight by your side — perfect for handling overwhelming odds or dishing out extra damage during boss fights. It works pretty much the same as the curse, except you summon a, ugh, toad-snaile with trees growing out of it, I guess. Screenshot by DestructoidTo wield the power, you’ll need to be aligned with the Holy Sect and have an Earth Fairy as your companion. Activating the ability consumes both Mana and HP, so make sure you’re prepared before summoning your spectral ally. It has a 1 hour cooldown, just like Curse of the Dune Dragon. You can obtain this summoning spell by finding the Cho Blessing Scroll, most commonly dropped by the Dreadful Licht King in the Withered Thicket. While there are a few rumors that the Goblin King might drop it as well, the Licht King remains your best bet. The two bosses share parts of their respective loot pools (mainly Fighter’s Ring and Merchant’s Ring), so it’s possible that they can both drop the Scroll, with the Goblin King having a slightly lower drop chance. Screenshot by DestructoidWill There Be More Curses and Blessings in Rune Slayer? Definitely, since both are recent additions. Still, one can’t help but notice that Curse of the Dune Dragon and Blessing of the Cho are awfully similar. Not only do they both drain HP and a secondary stat, but they also both summon a being that immobilizes the opponent and deals massive AoE. As the rotten cherry on top, both abilities aren’t really powerful enough to justify a 60-minute cooldown, even before the nerf. So I wouldn’t really advise you to break your back grinding for them. Let’s just hope that new curses and blessings in Rune Slayer will be more balanced. That should be the end of this crash course on how to get all curses and blessings in Rune Slayer. They’re not the best thing in the world right now, so it’s up to the devs to think of new ones that are hopefully less grindy and have a cooldown that isn’t measured in hours. In the meantime, check out the new races in Rune Slayer and how you can combine curses and blessing with them.

Argentina is proving it can win without Lionel Messi, just in case he opts not to play in the 2026 World Cup.After Argentina secured a spot in next year’s competition, the main question now is whether the 37-year-old star will play in his sixth tournament and try to win back-to-back championships.“We will see what happens, there’s plenty of time,” Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said. “We must go one game a time otherwise (we) will be speaking about the same thing the rest of the year and we need to leave him alone, we will see. He will decide it whenever he wants, let’s not drive him crazy with this.”On Tuesday, hours after Argentina qualified for the next World Cup, it went out and handed Brazil its worst-ever loss World Cup qualifying — a 4-1 thrashing. That was days after Argentina’s 1-0 victory at Uruguay.Both victories came without Messi. The eight-time Ballon d’Or winner had been ruled out after sustaining a low-grade adductor muscle injury.Messi, who captained Argentina to the 2022 World Cup title in Qatar, has been sidelined several times by Inter Miami this season because of injury concerns.His Argentina teammates left no doubt about their hopes for Messi to return.“With Messi we might have scored two or three more goals,” said striker Julián Álvarez, who scored one goal against Brazil.Bolivia’s failure to beat Uruguay on Tuesday assured Argentina — which leads the South American qualifiers with 31 points — of one of the continent’s six direct spots for the 48-team World Cup to be co-hosted next year by the United States, Canada and Mexico.After Tuesday’s big win at Monumental de Nunez Stadium, midfielder Rodrigo de Paul seemed to speak for the whole country.“The best of our teams is always when the No. 10 is playing,” De Paul said, “because he is the greatest of all time.”
