Proposals to increase income tax have been blasted as "lazy, crude and cruel" by a former States economist. In a letter to all deputies, seen by the BBC, Dr Andy Sloan said a move by Policy and Resources (P&R) to temporarily increase income tax of 2p in the pound is not fiscally competitive or fair. Dr Sloan claimed the increase would leave islanders paying 10% more tax than those in the UK earning the same wage. P&R has said there is "need for action now" and the rise "forces the next States to decide on a long-term fiscal solution to our financial challenges, including the cost of long-term care". 'No empathy' The proposals to increase income tax for two years while looking to introduce GST will be voted on when the entire 2025 budget is put to deputies. "Raising the personal income tax by 2p in the pound, will mean a Guernsey worker on an average wage will pay 10% more tax and social insurance contributions than a worker on the same pay in the UK," Dr Sloan said. "When I came to the island in 2008, a Guernsey worker on the average wage paid 20% less. "Increasing income tax like this is a lazy, crude and cruel tool. "These proposals display no sympathy or empathy with average workers." Link: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c774v2xz6l5o

A cash-strapped urban farm could close by the end of the year, the owners have warned. Neil Campbell and Joanna Holbrook-Morris need £40,000 to save Nunny's Farm in Grimsby. But they said they feared most of the animals would have to be put to sleep without the extra funds. "A lot of animals that we've rescued, we were their second chance," said Ms Holbrook-Morris. "Where are they going to go if we have to fold?" The farm, on the Nunsthorpe estate, has welcomed more than 100,000 visitors since opening in 2021. It is not only a visitor attraction, but works with veterans and children outside of mainstream education, runs a mini-farmers club and rescues unwanted animals. "The whole farm is built around and for mental health," Mr Campbell said. The owners have launched a fundraising appeal to help save the farm. They said they had suffered from bad weather and flooding over the past year. Costs rose by £20,000 last April due to a rise in the minimum wage, Mr Campbell said. The farm was now "facing another £14,000 increase" after the recent budget announcements. "I don't see where that is going to come from," he added. "We tried to fund it last year through personal loans which are still outstanding, so that's not an option for us any more". Ms Holbrook-Morris said: "The animals would have to be put down. "The majority of them will not be able to be relocated because of Bluetongue [virus], which means we can't move cows, alpacas, sheep or goats out of the area". The owners are looking for outside investment. Mr Campbell added: "This is my life's work. It's everything." Link: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0j8e9vg60lo

In a world of ever more complex performance cars, the refreshingly pure and elemental 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata is proof that you don't need go-faster tech to have a great time. It isn't perfect and presents a number of glaring compromises when it comes to day-to-day usability, but that's not why you buy a Miata. In the pantheon of sports cars, the Miata delivers the thrills and joys every keen driver is looking for, and that's what makes it so beloved.Read full review There aren't many cars in today's market that can give you real raw exhilaration without breaking the bank. The Mazda MX-5 Miata is a roadster that not only offers a fun driving experience without sacrificing fuel efficiency but is also affordable. Space is scarce in this lightweight brawler, but thrills are pleasingly abundant. The Miata received some minor updates for the 2024 model. There has been no official mention of a complete redesign for 2025, but that seems unlikely to us at this point. We also don't dismiss the possibility of electrification creeping into the Miata lineup. Link: https://www.edmunds.com/mazda/cx-5/

We are inundated with information on physical fatigue, what it is, how we measure it and how we can recover. But what about mental fatigue and how we recover from that? We are starting to understand the impact that mental fatigue can have on physical performance but how can we manage it? How can we recover from it to maximise performance in a subsequent match or training session? We spoke to Suzy Russell, a researcher at Australian Catholic University and asked her 6 important questions on this. Over the last few years, we have seen a growing body of evidence that builds upon foundational work examining the impact of mental fatigue on physical performance [1]. Recent investigations have begun to inform us about the impacts on technical, tactical, psychomotor and psychological aspects of performance. Physically, we see decreased time to exhaustion, reduced power output and cadence during cycling time trial performance; increased completion time for 3 km and 5 km running trials, and across swimming distances [1]. An average of 16 ± 5% less distance covered on the field-based Yo-Yo IRT1 test provides a relatable example of the impact mental fatigue can have [2]. We have also seen increased session rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and lower self-selected volume completed during resistance training. Generally, the physical research demonstrates a negative impact on endurance tasks. The impact on a short isolated maximal anaerobic effort appears to be negligible. Impairments in technical skills include number of errors, number of tackles and percentage of successful tackles in soccer [3]; free throws, three point shots and turnovers in basketball [4]; and decision making in volleyball [5]. These critical skill examples are supplemented by a negative impact on sport specific psychomotor performance including decision making, reaction time and accuracy [6]. The body of evidence informing potential changes in tactical performance is yet to emerge. However, available information indicates impairments in tactical behaviours and compensatory physical demands during small sided games [7]. Having said that, we have only just scratched the surface. There is plenty more to explore, quantify and understand. Link: https://www.sportsmith.co/articles/understanding-mental-fatigue-and-mental-recovery-in-sport/

(London) – Poland’s government is targeting people for alleged abortion-related activities, intensifying a climate of fear that heightens risks for women and girls, Human Rights Watch said today. Human Rights Watch released a video highlighting how the government’s dubious use of its powers to chase down alleged abortion-related activity threatens people’s rights to privacy, autonomy, and health, amongst others. Since a near-ban on legal abortion in 2020, Polish officials have increasingly opened investigations on questionable legal grounds against women and girls seeking medical care for miscarriages or after legal medication abortions, as well as against doctors. Polish law does not criminalize having an abortion but rather anyone who provides or assists someone in having an abortion outside of highly restricted grounds. The government is apparently attempting to find a basis for prosecuting family members, friends, and healthcare providers for illegally providing or assisting abortions. “Polish authorities’ ruthless pursuit of people trying to get or provide basic health care can only be described as a witch hunt,” said Hillary Margolis, senior women’s rights researcher at Human Rights Watch. “The government is misusing police and courts to advance its anti-rights agenda, taking its abusive policies into private homes, hospital rooms, and doctors’ offices.” In interviews with Human Rights Watch, doctors, lawyers, and a woman who had a legal medication abortion described sweeping and speculative investigations, and overbroad searches. Criminalizing those who provide or assist an abortion unjustifiably interferes with the right to health, leading to negative health outcomes and potential persecution of those seeking abortion. Additionally, since January 2021, at least six women are known to have died after doctors did not terminate their pregnancies despite complications that posed a danger to their health or lives, which remain legal grounds for abortion in Poland. Prosecutors opened investigations into all six cases, five of which are ongoing. In the sixth, the prosecutor discontinued the proceedings without providing reasons for doing so. Women and girls have been put under intense scrutiny for alleged abortion-related activity when they seek urgent health care. Joanna, a 32-year-old woman, said that the police demanded to strip search her in April after she had a self-administered medication abortion, which is legal. “They told me to take off my clothes, do squats, and cough,” Joanna said. “I was just standing in front of them, I didn’t take my underwear off…. I tried to take a step back but there was only a wall behind me. I felt I wasn’t a human being anymore.” The lawyer representing Joanna and others subject to invasive searches and interrogation said that such “fishing expeditions” do not have sufficient legal basis. “This is just searching for searching’s sake,” the lawyer said. “It’s not legitimate because the investigation must not be started without grounds for suspicion…. Only for abortion is it done this way.” These actions also constitute degrading treatment in violation of international human rights law, Human Rights Watch said. Cases that Human Rights Watch documented offer evidence that Polish law enforcement authorities have increased their pursuit of women, girls, and healthcare providers since the politically compromised Constitutional Tribunal issued a decision in October 2020 that virtually eliminated legal abortion in Poland. The decision, which entered into force on January 27, 2021, removed one of only three grounds on which an abortion could be obtained. Evidence consistently demonstrates that laws criminalizing or restricting access to abortion do not eliminate it, but rather drive people to seek abortion through means that may put their mental and physical health at risk and diminish their autonomy and dignity. Since the Law and Justice party (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość, PiS) came to power in 2015, Poland’s government has carried out a sustained attack on sexual and reproductive health rights, particularly access to abortion. The ruling party brought the abortion case to the Constitutional Tribunal after parliament voted not to adopt legislation effectively banning legal abortion. The authorities’ crackdown on women’s rights is a symptom of their broader capture of the justice system and dismantling of democratic checks and balances. Under Law and Justice, the government has systematically eroded the rule of law by undermining the independence of the judiciary and establishing effective control over the Constitutional Tribunal, among other institutions. It has sought to silence independent civil society groups, activists, and those who protest against its policies, including through the police and courts. Abortion rights defenders have also come under fire. In March 2023, a Warsaw court convicted Justyna Wydrzyńska, co-founder of the activist group Abortion Dream Team, of helping a woman to procure medication abortion pills. Wydrzyńska, who was sentenced to eight months of community service, is appealing the conviction. Poland’s government should urgently decriminalize abortion and provision of or assistance in procuring an abortion or abortion-related care, and ensure safe and legal access. The government and authorities should immediately stop questionable investigations and prosecutions related to abortion and ensure that women and girls can access necessary reproductive health care in a dignified and confidential manner, and that healthcare practitioners can provide such care without fear of prosecution. The authorities should also cease attacks on women’s and reproductive rights defenders. Authorities’ actions – and their use of undemocratic means to pursue their aims – raise serious concerns over breaches of the European Union’s founding values and Poland’s international human rights obligations, Human Rights Watch said. “By going after women and girls who need medical care – and doctors who provide it – Polish authorities are using their powers to terrorize people instead of to protect basic rights,” Margolis said. “As the government ramps up its targeting and harassment of people allegedly linked to abortion, anyone can fall prey to these attempts and have their privacy, dignity, and right to health violated.” Additional Information on Increased Targeting of Alleged Abortion-Related Activity The October 2020 Constitutional Tribunal decision stated that abortion on grounds of “high probability of severe and irreversible fetal impairment or incurable illness that threatens the fetus’ life” is unconstitutional, removing one of few, and the most accessible, legal basis for abortion under Poland’s highly restrictive law. Previously, over 90 percent of the approximately 1,000 legal abortions annually in Poland were on these grounds. Polish law now permits abortion only to safeguard the life or health of the woman or where a pregnancy results from rape or incest. However, in practice multiple barriers severely limit access to care in such cases, as the deaths of pregnant women refused terminations demonstrate.

Apple has reduced the price of iPhone 15, iPhone 14 and other models in India following a reduction in the import duties. Consequently, the prices of some of Apple's most po[CENSORED]r models have seen a price drop from as little as Rs. 300 to as high as Rs. 6,000. This development comes a week after the government of India announced a decrease in the basic customs duty on smartphones from 20 percent to 15 percent during the Budget 2024. iPhone Price Drop in India iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models have received a small price drop of Rs. 300, with the smartphones now retailing at Rs. 79,600 and Rs. 89,600, respectively for the 128GB storage variant. The same price cut amount is applied to the standard iPhone 14 models too, which now start at Rs. 69,000. The iPhone 13 is the cheapest non-SE iPhone which Apple currently sells in India. Its price has dropped from Rs. 59,900 to Rs. 59,600, also marking a price reduction of Rs. 300. Meanwhile, the iPhone SE (2022) sees its price drop by Rs. 2,300 and is now available for purchase starting at Rs. 47,600. However, it is the iPhone 15 Pro models which have been on the receiving end of significant price drops. Apple has reduced the price of iPhone 15 Pro 128GB from Rs. 1,34,900 to Rs. 1,29,800 – a difference of Rs. 5,100. On the other hand, the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which originally retailed for Rs. 1,59,900, has witnessed a price drop of Rs. 5,900 and can be purchased for Rs. 1,54,000. This move comes amidst news that global smartphone shipments increased by 6.5 percent in the second quarter of 2024, according to market intelligence firm IDC (International Data Corporation). Despite Apple dethroning Samsung as the best-selling smartphone company in 2023, the South Korean technology conglomerate emerged as the brand with the highest number of devices shipped in Q2 2024, with a market share of 18.9 percent. Apple and Xiaomi took the second and third spots with 15.8 percent and 14.8 percent of the total shipments respectively in the second quarter.

There are plenty of gaming monitors you can choose from if you're on a budget. These models are getting equipped with more gaming features, and while most don't have premium perks like HDMI 2.1 bandwidth or a 4k resolution, you'll still be happy with the performance of most low-cost gaming monitors. They're available in different resolutions and sizes, but size is a personal preference. When looking for a gaming monitor, one of the most important factors is a fast response time so that motion looks sharp. Low input lag is also crucial, though most monitors have low input lag for a responsive feel. A high refresh rate is beneficial if you play competitive games, and some budget models have high refresh rates, too. Additionally, picture quality is important for creating an immersive gaming experience, so you'll want to look for monitors with bright highlights and vivid colors, but that's less common on budget monitors, and most of them have limited picture quality. We've bought and tested over 330 monitors, and below, you'll find our recommendations for the best budget and cheap gaming monitors. Also, see our recommendations for the best gaming monitors under $300, the best monitors under $200, and the best budget and cheap monitors. You can also learn about the best monitor brands.

A month after the release of its debut game Unknown 9: Awakening, Bandai Namco-owned Reflector Entertainment has announced that it is laying off 18% of its workforce so it can "efficiently deliver on our most pressing objectives while guaranteeing that every member of our team can meaningfully contribute to our ongoing projects." Reflector said the layoffs weren't driven by "commercial success or external pressures," but simply the fact that there's currently not enough work to support the studio at its current size. "With the recent release of Unknown 9: Awakening and our two key production lines entering the early stages of development, we must make sure that our staff is laser-focused on contributing to the projects that wholly benefit from their skillsets," general manager Marc-André Séguin wrote (via Game Developer). "As such, we are reducing our team by approximately 18% of Reflector’s total workforce, a decision that impacts people who aren’t assigned to roles that our active projects require." Unknown 9: Awakening did not make an especially good impression when it launched in October. We liked what we saw of it in a pre-release preview well enough, but it currently holds a "mixed" rating on Steam, and more notably the all-time peak concurrent player count on the platform was just 285, a number that quickly tanked to double digits. We don't have access to console player numbers but it hasn't fared any better on other platforms critically, holding a not-great 59% aggregate score on Metacritic. The actual number of people put out of work hasn't been specified, but Reflector's LinkedIn page indicates it has 51-200 employees, with 145 "associated members"—that is, LinkedIn users who list Reflector as their current workplace.

Researchers are listening to sounds made by some endangered species in a bid to help save them from extinction. Warwick University has joined forces with Australia's University of New South Wales to analyse sounds made by animals, including types of birds and elephants. The scientists are using a new method adapted from technology used to analyse brain waves in neuroscience, said Warwick University. Analysis of the animal sounds can be used to estimate po[CENSORED]tion size, identify where animals live and their migration patterns, researchers said Scientists are also trying to understand "any negative impacts" the animals may experience from increasing levels of noise from human activity. The study is based on a method named the superlet transform (SLT) which turns signals into an image. Lead researcher Ben Jancovich said the information was "vital" to develop conservation strategies for endangered species including types of elephants, whales and birds. Mr Jancovich, a visiting PhD student from the University of New South Wales, said the new method was more accurate and helped scientists spot familiar shapes and recurring patterns of animal songs. In comparison, existing methods struggled to visualise time and frequency information at the same time, which affected the analysis of sounds. “The new method we demonstrated offers increased accuracy and requires less expertise to use, so it should prove to be a hugely valuable tool for animal sound researchers that don’t have an engineering background," he said. The research revealed calls by the Asian elephant, southern cassowary and American crocodile contains sounds that are “pulsed”. Researchers added as these discoveries were based on single recordings, they were not conclusive findings, and more sounds needed to be analysed. However, they said it illustrated "the power of this new method to clarify details". Link: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cw5y94nqxg1o

CAIRO, Nov. 19 (Xinhua) -- Chinese premium automotive brand Exeed, a subsidiary of automaker Chery, has introduced two SUV models, the Exeed RX and Exeed VX, to the Egyptian market. A launching ceremony held by Exeed on Monday in the Muhammad Ali Palace in northern Great Cairo attracted more than 1,000 guests from the two countries, including government representatives, auto dealers and experts, potential customers and media representatives. The two gasoline-powered SUV models boast luxurious features and advanced smart technology. The launch of the new models also marked Exeed's debut in the Egyptian market. National Automotive Company (NATCO), an established Egyptian automotive dealer since 1988, is partnering with Exeed to distribute its vehicles in the region. Speaking at the event, NATCO Chairman Karim Sami Saad highlighted China's growing prominence in the global automotive industry and expressed optimism about the partnership. Qin Chao, CEO of Exeed International, told Xinhua that his company is striving to be a high-end mobility solution provider. "In Egypt, together with NATCO, we will provide high-quality models to meet customer needs and contribute to the development of the Egyptian automotive industry," he said. On Sunday, Egypt launched the production line of the Exeed cars at the Egyptian-German Automotive (EGA) factory in the 6th of October City. Minister of Industry and Transport Kamel el-Wazir said the initiative aligns with Egypt's strategy to become a key industrial hub, particularly in the automotive industry.

Lewis Hamilton inherited victory in the Belgian Grand Prix after Mercedes team-mate George Russell was disqualified two and a half hours after taking an unlikely win on the track. Russell pulled off an unusual one-stop strategy and held off Hamilton’s attack in the closing laps. But after the race his car was found to be 1.5kg underweight, with his team admitting to "a genuine error". That saw Hamilton promoted to a victory that had looked likely for much of the race - after he took the lead from Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc on the second lap. Oscar Piastri is moved up to second, with Leclerc third and Max Verstappen fourth. Russell's car was initially weighed at 798kg, which is exactly on the minimum weight limit for car and driver combined. But stewards found the car had not been fully drained of fuel and when it was, its weight was just 796.5kg. Russell had appeared to have pulled off a remarkable victory from sixth on the grid, calling the strategy himself from the car, fending off a seven-time champion on tyres that were 15 laps fresher for five laps at the end off the race. Hamilton was closing in at nearly a second a lap in the final laps but, as so many other drivers found, overtaking was harder than expected and he could never quite get close enough to challenge. As Russell battled to hold off Hamilton in the final two or three laps, McLaren’s Piastri closed in on the Mercedes to set up a grandstand finish, and the three cars crossed the line nose to tail. Seven seconds behind them, Ferrari’s Leclerc - who had been passed by Piastri with nine laps to go around the outside of the Les Combes chicane, spent the closing laps fending off Red Bull’s Verstappen and the second McLaren of Lando Norris. The three spent the final four laps nose to tail but Leclerc managed to hold his rivals at bay. Behind Norris, Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz passed Red Bull’s Sergio Perez with five laps to go to raise further questions about Perez’s future. Red Bull are expected to make a decision as to whether to drop him for the rest of the season over the forthcoming summer break - just two months after the Mexican signed a new two-year contract. And dropping from second on the grid to finish at the back of the top four teams will have done Perez no favours. Link: https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/c6p2q0x5ezzo
