https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/lolita-po[CENSORED]r-miami-seaquarium-orca-dies-ahead-planned-release-natura-rcna100738 Lolita, a Miami Seaquarium whale with her own fan club, died Friday from an unspecified ailment related to her kidneys, a nonprofit group dedicated to her care announced. Also known as Tokitae and Toki, the orca captured in 1970 off the Washington state coast was to be returned to a custom enclosure in her home habitat, the Puget Sound, under an agreement between the Seaquarium and the nonprofit, Friends of Toki, that was announced in spring. “Despite receiving the best possible medical care, she passed away Friday afternoon from what is believed to be a renal condition,” Friends of Toki said in a statement. The group said the whale, believed to be about 57-year-old, showed “signs of discomfort” in the last few days. She has had health issues in the last few years, and a July 31 welfare assessment of the marine mammal written by two veterinarians said she was “still fighting infection,” suffered abdominal discomfort, and had a lesion on a lung. The infection was described as a "chronic pulmonary infection" in a July 12 Friends of Toki update, which said she was on daily antibiotics. Her treatment featured care from veterinarians, but also included daily monitoring of her aquatic environment, where the use of chlorine was being discontinued, the water was turning green from algae (“quite healthy,” the nonprofit said), and chillers were used to keep the otherwise tropical water as cold as the Pacific, according to the veterinarians’ assessment and the nonprofit’s updates. Southern resident orcas, which spend summer and fall in Puget Sound, were added to the federal endangered species list in 2005. The effort to return the Lolita to the Puget Sound faced regulatory hurdles, including approvals from state and federal officials, Friends of Toki said in July. It named Jim Irsay, owner of the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts, as a financial backer of Lolita’s return.

Detailed specs won’t be provided until mid-2023 (at Can-Am’s 50th anniversary celebration), but both will be powered by BRP’s all-new, proprietary Rotax E-Power technology, said to provide “highway-worthy speeds with plenty of horsepower and torque.” The Can-Am Origin has rally-style bodywork, fork guards, and spoked wheels, in diameters that appear to be 21 inches in front and 18 inches out back, common sizes for off-road tires. The final drive is enclosed, and Can-Am reps would not reveal whether power is sent to the rear wheel via chain (used on nearly all dual-sports) or belt (used on many production electric bikes).

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/66554874 Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood will leave the club by mutual agreement after a six-month internal investigation into his conduct. Greenwood was arrested in January 2022 following allegations surrounding material which was published online. Charges against the 21-year-old England international, including attempted rape and assault, were dropped on 2 February 2023. United said in a statement: "All those involved, including Mason, recognise the difficulties with him recommencing his career at Manchester United. "It has therefore been mutually agreed that it would be most appropriate for him to do so away from Old Trafford, and we will now work with Mason to achieve that outcome. "Based on the evidence available to us, we have concluded that the material posted online did not provide a full picture and that Mason did not commit the offences in respect of which he was originally charged. That said, as Mason publicly acknowledges today, he has made mistakes which he is taking responsibility for." In a statement, Greenwood accepted he had "made mistakes" and took his "share of responsibility", but added: "I did not do the things I was accused of." He said: "Today's decision has been part of a collaborative process between Manchester United, my family and me. The best decision for us all is for me to continue my football career away from Old Trafford, where my presence will not be a distraction for the club. I thank the club for their support since I joined aged seven. There will always be a part of me which is United. "I am enormously grateful to my family and all my loved ones for their support, and it is now for me to repay the trust those around me have shown. I intend to be a better footballer, but most importantly a good father, a better person, and to use my talents in a positive way on and off the pitch." Greenwood, whose contract Old Trafford runs until 2025, could now be sold or loaned to another club for the remainder of his contract. He remains on full pay but will not return to training with United. What is the background? In material published online, a man - alleged to be Greenwood - could be heard shouting at a woman to "move your [expletive] legs up". The woman responded that she did not want sex, and the man replied: "I don't give a [expletive] what you want, you little [expletive]." The man then says: "Push me again and watch what happens to you. " Greenwood was charged in October 2022 with attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm. Following his arrest, Nike ended its sponsorship deal with Greenwood and Electronic Arts removed him from active squads on its Fifa 22 game. After the charges were dropped in February 2023, the Crown Prosecution Service said key witnesses had withdrawn and new material had come to light, meaning there was "no longer a realistic prospect of conviction". At the time, a statement released on Greenwood's behalf said he was "relieved". United then started their own internal investigation in to the player, who was previously named one of the most valuable players in Europe's top five leagues. Greenwood has one England cap, and was sent home from the international camp during which he won it after an "unacceptable" breach of coronavirus quarantine guidelines in Iceland. In a statement last week, the club said they had gathered "extensive evidence and context not in the public domain" and spoken to "numerous people with direct involvement or knowledge of the case". In an open letter to fans on Monday, United chief executive Richard Arnold said the extra evidence included the alleged victim requesting the police to drop their investigation in April 2022, and the club receiving alternative explanations for the material that was posted online. "While I am satisfied that Mason did not commit the acts he was charged with, Mason's accepted that he has made mistakes which he takes responsibility for," Arnold said. Greenwood said that: "I understand that people will judge me because of what they have seen and heard... and I know people will think the worst. I was brought up to know that violence or abuse in any relationship is wrong." An announcement of the investigation's results was expected before United's opening Premier League game of the season against Wolves on 14 August, but the decision was delayed amid fierce debate about Greenwood's potential reintegration at Old Trafford. What has happened in recent weeks? A group of female United supporters protested about his potential return outside Old Trafford before the Wolves game, and said they wanted the club to "demonstrate a zero-tolerance approach" towards violence against women. Female Fans Against Greenwood's Return put out a lengthy statement to say Greenwood's reintegration would tell them "as women, that we don't matter". The club said they wanted to consult with their women's team, some of whom were part of England's World Cup squad playing in Australia, before announcing a decision about Greenwood's future. United announced their decision while the Lionesses were flying home. In a statement last Wednesday, United said the "fact-finding phase" of their investigation was complete, adding a decision about Greenwood's future - which rested with Arnold - was in the final stages. The Athletic reported United's executive leadership team had been told in early August that Greenwood - who scored 35 goals in 129 games - would be returning to the club. However, United said the decision had not been made and was "the subject of intensive internal deliberation". The following day, television presenter Rachel Riley said she would stop supporting United if Greenwood was allowed to stay. A number of MPs criticised the club when it was reported they were considering bringing Greenwood back, with Labour MP Apsana Begum saying such a decision would be "a stain on your club that will be hard to forget". After Monday's announcement, Female Fans Against Greenwood's Return said the club had "done the right thing, for the wrong reasons". Women's Aid, a charity which works to end domestic abuse against women and children, said it welcomed United's decision. "We know that today's news from Manchester United that Greenwood will be moving on will be a relief for many survivors of domestic and sexual abuse," it said in a statement. "Football is loved by so many people worldwide, and players are often idolised by fans, so the way that alleged domestic abuse cases are treated in clubs has a huge impact on public understanding about what is accepted and tolerated in society." The Manchester United Supporters Trust said: "Since the deeply distressing initial allegations surfaced, this episode has been allowed to drag out for far too long as the club has carried out an investigative process. "Moreover, the complete lack of consultation with fans even with respect to process added fuel to the fire. Whilst the speculation and discussion in the last couple of weeks has been profoundly unhelpful and reflected very poorly on the club, it is clear that they have in the end reached the right decision. "We are relieved that this matter can now be put behind us and will be working with the club to ensure lessons have been learned from this very troubling episode." The Female Fans Against Greenwood's Return group hold up a banner outside Old Trafford The Female Fans Against Greenwood's Return group held up banners outside Old Trafford last week Man Utd's open letter in full Chief executive Richard Arnold wrote to supporters: "Now that we have concluded and announced the outcome of the club's investigation into Mason Greenwood, I want to be direct and transparent with our fans about the process and the reasons for our decision. "This was an internal disciplinary investigation between employer and employee which would ordinarily take place outside of the public eye. Given the public nature of the allegations and Mason's profile, I acknowledge that this was not an ordinary situation, but I felt it important that we still follow due process and, so far as possible, avoid media comment until I had made a definitive decision. "When audio footage and imagery was posted online in January 2022, my feelings were of shock and concern for the alleged victim. Her welfare, wishes and perspective have been central to the club's approach ever since, as have the club's standards and values. While we immediately concluded that Mason should be suspended pending investigation, we were also conscious of our duty of care towards him and the importance of making a decision based on full information. Until February this year, this was a matter for the police and the Crown Prosecution Service. It was only when charges were dropped that the club discussed the allegations with Mason and others involved in the case. "Our investigation sought to collate as much evidence as possible to establish facts and context. This was not a quick or straightforward process for a variety of reasons. It was essential for us to respect the rights and wishes of the alleged victim. Also, we have limited powers of investigation which meant we were reliant on third-party co-operation. Timings have also been influenced by my desire to minimise the impact of the investigation on our men's and women's teams, as well as our Lionesses. I acknowledge that this gave more time for speculation, but the alternative would have been to compromise due process or create untimely disruption. "While we were unable to access certain evidence for reasons we respect, the evidence we did collate led us to conclude that Mason did not commit the acts he was charged with. I am restricted as to what I can say for legal reasons, including the alleged victim's ongoing right to anonymity, but I am able to share the following with you which should give you some insight into the complexity of this case. The alleged victim requested the police to drop their investigation in April 2022. We were provided with alternative explanations for the audio recording, which was a short excerpt from a much longer recording, and for the images posted online. The alleged victim's family participated in the process and were given the opportunity to review and correct our factual findings. "Last week the media reported that we had decided to reintegrate Mason and that elements of a plan to do so had been leaked to them. Reintegration was one of the outcomes we considered and planned for. For context, over the course of the past six months several outcomes have been contemplated and planned for, and my view has evolved as our process progressed. While the ultimate decision rested with me, I was taking various factors and views into account right up until the point of finalising my decision. "While I am satisfied that Mason did not commit the acts he was charged with, Mason's accepted that he has made mistakes which he takes responsibility for. I am also mindful of the challenge that Mason would face rebuilding his career and raising a baby together with his partner in the harsh spotlight of Manchester United. Further, this case has provoked strong opinions, and it is my responsibility to minimise any distraction to the unity we are seeking within the club. "Although we have decided that Mason will seek to rebuild his career away from Manchester United, that does not signal the end of this matter. The club will continue to offer its support both to the alleged victim and Mason to help them rebuild and move forward positively with their lives."

https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/surviving-beatles-join-dolly-parton-let-it-be-cover-2023-08-18/ LOS ANGELES, Aug 18 (Reuters) - Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, the two living members of The Beatles, have reunited for a cover of their 1970 hit "Let It Be" on country singer Dolly Parton's coming rock album. Parton released the single on Friday ahead of the November debut of her album "Rockstar." McCartney sang and played piano while Starr played drums on the recording. Two other music luminaries joined the collaboration, Parton said. Peter Frampton played guitar and Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac did percussion. "I mean, seriously, how much better does it get?" Parton wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. The "Rockstar" album was inspired by Parton's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame last year. It will include nine original songs and 21 covers with an all-star list of collaborators, including Elton John, Miley Cyrus, Stevie Nicks, Debbie Harry, Joan Jett and Chris Stapleton.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-66573842 A flagship Russian long-range bomber has been destroyed in a Ukrainian drone strike, according to reports. Images posted on social media and analysed by BBC Verify show a Tupolev Tu-22 on fire at Soltsy-2 airbase, south of St Petersburg. Moscow said that a drone was hit by small-arms fire but managed to "damage" a plane. Ukraine has not commented. The Tu-22 can travel at twice the speed of sound and has been used extensively by Russia to attack cities in Ukraine. The Russian Ministry of Defence said in a statement that an attack by a "copter-type UAV" took place at around 10:00 Moscow time (08:00 BST). It stated the location as "a military airfield in the Novgorod region", where Soltsy-2 is situated. "The UAV was detected by the airfield's observation outpost and was hit with small-arms fire," the ministry said. "One airplane was damaged; there were no casualties as a result of the terrorist act." The statement also said a fire which broke out in the airfield parking lot was quickly extinguished. However, images posted on the social media platform Telegram showed a large fire engulfing a jet with the distinctive nose cone of the Tu-22. BBC Verify analysed the images and believes them to be credible. While the destruction of a single aircraft will have little effect on the potency of Moscow's current 60-strong fleet, the operation highlights Kyiv's growing ability to strike targets deep inside Russian territory. Kyiv has over recent months launched dozens of fixed-wing unmanned aircraft to attack Moscow, a journey of several hundred miles. Soltsy-2 is around 400 miles (650km) from the Ukraine border. However, the Russian MoD's description of the drone as a "copter-type UAV" suggests a cheap, commercially available device launched at short range. The Tu-22 is a Cold War-era, swing-wing supersonic bomber, codenamed "Backfire" by Nato, which has been used extensively in attacks on Ukrainian cities. Modern versions such as the Tu-22M3 can reach speeds of Mach 2 (2,300km/h or 1,430mp/h) and can carry up to 24,000kg of weapons, including "dumb bombs" and homing missiles. They have been used in conflicts in Syria, Chechnya, and Georgia and most recently in Ukraine. According to prosecutors in Kyiv, 30 people were killed when a Tu-22-launched missile hit a block of flats in Dnipro in January. They said Russia's 52nd Guards Bomber Aviation Regiment carried out the attack. The regiment is based at Soltsy-2. BBC Verify confirmed the location of the Ukrainian drone attack on Soltsy-2 by comparing visual clues - such as the appearance of aircraft and bays - to historical satellite images of the airbase. The weather conditions at the time - wet and overcast - also matched the weather in the images, as well as other witness photos of the incident. The remnants of the aircraft visible in the footage are consistent with that of a Tu-22M3. Historical satellite imagery analysed by BBC Verify shows that aircraft of this kind were stationed at the base.

Samsung is said to be working on new camera sensors with upgraded specifications. Earlier this year, the South Korean tech giant released its flagship Galaxy S23 series. The lineup included a Samsung Galaxy S23, Samsung Galaxy S23+ and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra models. The quad-rear camera unit of the high-end Ultra model comes with a 200-megapixel primary sensor with a wide-angle lens, accompanied by a 12-megapixel sensor with an ultra-wide lens, a 10-megapixel sensor with a telephoto lens, and another 10-megapixel telephoto sensor with 10x optical zoom. A Sammobile report citing a tweet by tipster Revegnus (@Tech_Reve) hinted that Samsung is working on a new batch of ISOCELL camera sensors. The listed sensors are tipped to go into mass production by the latter half of 2024. The tipster suggested that the company is working on a 50-megapixel ISOCELL GN6 1.6-inch sensor, a 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP7 0.6-inch sensor, and a 440-megapixel ISOCELL HU1 with an unspecified-sized sensor. The report suggested that the ISOCELL GN6 is likely to be the mobile and camera manufacturer's "biggest and first" 1-inch sensor which could compete with the Sony IMX989 sensor, which is expected to be a worthy camera upgrade for upcoming flagship smartphones. The rumoured 440-megapixel ISOCELL HU1 camera sensor is expected to feature a larger than a 1-inch lens. Since Samsung uses its camera sensors for both smartphones and assisted smart-driving cars, it is unclear if the sensor will be used in phones or cars, the report added. The company had also notably previously stated that it wants to work on camera sensors with up to 600-megapixel resolution. The latest Samsung model with the highest camera resolution yet, the Galaxy S23 Ultra starts at Rs. 1,24,999 for the 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant, while the 12GB RAM + 512GB storage model and 12GB RAM + 1TB storage variant are priced at Rs. 1,34,999 and Rs. 1,54,999, respectively. Is the iQoo Neo 7 Pro the best smartphone you can buy under Rs. 40,000 in India? We discuss the company's recently launched handset and what it has to offer on the latest episode of Orbital, the Gadgets 360 podcast. Orbital is available on Spotify, Gaana, JioSaavn, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music and wherever you get your podcasts.

https://techxplore.com/news/2023-06-microsoft-stakes-xbox-video-game.html One small step for an intrepid crew of 24th century space explorers could be a giant leap—or flop—for Microsoft when the Xbox-maker launches its long-awaited video game Starfield. Players must fend off pirates, navigate strange moons, build outposts and fix their own starships in a space epic that is due out on Xbox in September after years of development and delay. Microsoft gave its most detailed glimpse of the upcoming game at a Los Angeles event Sunday. The release could be one of the most important in Xbox's history as it looks to attract gamers with a headliner on par with Nintendo's latest Zelda game and PlayStation's upcoming Spider-Man 2, said Mat Piscatella, a game industry analyst for market researcher Circana. After months of watching Nintendo's Switch console and Sony's PlayStation steal the momentum in a lagging market—with boosts from Hollywood adaptions of Nintendo's Super Mario and the PlayStation exclusive Last of Us—Microsoft could use a blockbuster to drive sales of its Xbox consoles and its monthly game subscription service. "Starfield may have the potential to be as big or bigger than" po[CENSORED]r games on rival platforms, especially thanks to the strong track record of the studio that made it, Piscatella said. "But the 'may' there is a big one." Much of the anticipation centers on the past commercial successes of Microsoft-owned Bethesda Softworks, the studio behind long-running series such as Doom, Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Bethesda describes Starfield as its "first new universe in over 25 years." Bethesda was already well on its way toward developing it when Microsoft acquired its parent company ZeniMax Media for $7.5 billion in 2021. In fact, Bethesda first sought to trademark the Starfield name a decade ago, and teased the game in a brief trailer five years later in 2018. Now Starfield is caught up in Microsoft's planned takeover of Call of Duty maker Activision Blizzard. Sony has raised antitrust objections to the $69 billion deal over concerns that Microsoft could make some of Activision's best games exclusive to Xbox. On Monday, the Federal Trade Commission sued to block Microsoft and Activision from completing their merger in the U.S. PlayStation has its own exclusives—including top-sellers Last of Us, the Marvel Spider-Man games and some Final Fantasy games. But Sony has argued to antitrust regulators around the world that Microsoft's decision to make ZeniMax games like Starfield and Redfall exclusive to Xbox shows that Microsoft has the ability and incentive to foreclose rivals to games it acquires through big mergers. British regulators have also moved to block the deal, though other countries have approved it, including regulators representing the 27-nation European Union. Microsoft's ongoing battle to close the Activision deal and build enthusiasm for its existing stock of games comes at a slow period for game sales after interest soared at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumer spending on video games and hardware in the U.S. was $4.1 billion in April, a 5% drop from a year ago, according to Circana. A 6% decline in game revenue was partly offset by 7% growth in hardware sales, particularly for the PlayStation 5 and Switch. It marked the best April for console sales since the pandemic caused a sales spike in 2020.
