ICELAND. The annual Nordic Travel Retail Seminar took place on 31 May in Reykjavik, with a diverse speaker line-up tackling questions around technology and AI, sustainability and the green agenda and the regional and global economic picture – alongside a focus on the host country Iceland. The event at The Parliament Hotel attracted close to 100 decision makers from Nordic markets – including travel retailers, brand owners and airport companies – and was moderated by The Moodie Davitt Report President Dermot Davitt. After a warm welcome by Nordic Travel Retail Group Board Chair and Rémy-Cointreau Director Nordics Elsebeth Lillienschiold, delegates heard the first of a series of compelling sessions on the future of technology and AI, a central event theme.Expert speakers on this topic included Reykjanes Tech Founder Petur Karl Ingolfsson; disruptor and influencer Amer Mohammed, who is known for his major role in transforming both travel and retailing at Stena Line with a technology lens, as well as introducing the then revolutionary Scan & Pay platform to Coop Sweden, and Tryggvi Freyr Elinarson, whose CV features over 20 years of experience in digital marketing and business development, with a focus on AI and emerging tech.These speakers outlined their predictions for the world of tech advances in 2024 and beyond and in particular highlighted how AI is set to change the way our world works in ways we have yet to imagine. Travel and retail, they noted, is set for a new era of change and disruption. In other sessions, well-known Swedish business journalist Andreas Cervenka offered a big picture view of economic trends in the Nordics and beyond.A key topic facing the channel is how brands and retailers not only act sustainably but also communicate our ‘green’ credentials effectively and compliantly. Pia Kirstine Voldmester, who heads law firm Kromann Reumert’s data protection and marketing/consumer law practice group, presented the implications of the new EU Green Claims Directive, which looks set to challenge how companies make claims about their sustainability credentials from 2026 onwards – and which has excited much concern already in travel retail circles. The day concluded with two varying stories from host market, Iceland. BioEffect CEO Liv Bergthorsdottir told the success story of the Icelandic beauty brand, which has made a big impact for its innovative science-based, nature-linked and ecologically-engineered production. Travel retail is an important market, led to date by the inflight business and key skincare markets such as China and South Korea. The inspirational speaker to end the day was Ragnheiður (Raga) Elín Árnadóttir, who now works for the OECD in Paris and is former Iceland Minister of Industry and Commerce. She was previously also Chair of Duty Free Iceland, which is the prime travel retailer at Keflavik Airport. https://moodiedavittreport.com/nordic-travel-retail-seminar-tackles-challenges-of-technology-sustainability-and-economics-in-reykjavik/

As the Qurban Bayram, also known as Eid al-Adha, festival approaches, the entry of sacrificial animals into Istanbul has begun. Starting from June 1, permission has been granted for the entry of sacrificial animals into Istanbul in anticipation of the upcoming religious festival. At the inspection point established at the Riva Livestock Transport Control Point on the Northern Marmara Motorway, the Provincial Directorate of Agriculture teams conducted livestock transport inspections. During the inspection of a truck at the control point, Istanbul Agriculture and Forestry Director Ahmet Yavuz Karaca told the press that the entry of sacrificial animals into Istanbul started on June 1, according to the Sacrificial Services Notice. He added: "As of 6 p.m. today (May 31), according to the information we retrieved from the system, 28,000 animals are currently on the road. Last year, 76,000 cattle and approximately 93,000 sheep and goats were slaughtered. We expect the same numbers again. Our ministry has also announced that there is no problem regarding the sacrificial animals; we have sufficient animals." Providing information about the inspections, Karaca continued: "Since our road controls increase, especially during the Eid period, we conduct them 24/7, 365 days a year, but we tighten them a bit more during this period due to the risk of animal diseases and damages spreading. Before June 1, we had already started our shifts to prevent illegal entries. In this context, 823 sheep, goats and 325 cattle were caught in 23 vehicles during illegal animal transport. An administrative fine of approximately TL 2.6 million ($80,600) was imposed on them and they were taken to the Tuzla Quarantine area." Karaca explained that before transportation, animals are taken to the provincial and district agriculture directorates, where they are registered and inspected. "They undergo health checks. Their vaccinations are verified. This then turns into a veterinary health report. The veterinary health report is issued from the system, and we can see this. In 2010, through a vote by the World Veterinary Organization, our Thrace Region, starting from the European side of Istanbul, was declared a foot-and-mouth disease-free zone. To cross to this side, animals need to meet certain conditions. What are these? Blood tests must be conducted in quarantine. We check if these tests have been done. For example, this truck came from Tokat. Blood tests were conducted, and we checked if the animals in the vehicle matched those listed in the report and if there were any health issues. After verifying all these, they can cross over." Ahmet Yavuz Karaca also reminded citizens who will be performing the sacrificial ritual: "Currently, in Istanbul, we are also dealing with the preparations of the sacrificial animal sales and slaughtering sites. Permissions have been granted for 423 sales sites and 788 slaughtering sites as determined by the provincial and district sacrificial services commissions under the guidance of our Governor's Office. We always tell our citizens that they need to buy from licensed places and have the animals slaughtered by qualified individuals at licensed sites. If they buy from unlicensed places or have the slaughtering done by unqualified individuals at unlicensed sites, they will face administrative fines and encounter uncontrollable issues. This year, Eid al-Adha falls in the summer. The animals need to be slaughtered quickly. Even the internal organs of the carcass must be removed within 10 minutes after the slaughter. This is a very sensitive issue. Just as meat is valuable to us, it is equally valuable to harmful organic microorganisms. When citizens go to licensed places to buy animals, they will find veterinarians there. They can approach them if they see any problem." 'Tarım Cebimde' app Karaca also mentioned that information regarding sacrificial animals can be easily accessed through the "Tarım Cebimde" (Agriculture in my Pocket) mobile application. "Additionally, there is a program that they can download from iOS and Android. Once they download this, there is a section called 'ear tag inquiry.' When they enter the ear tag number in this section, they can see all the information about that animal, such as its age, gender, origin, what vaccinations have been applied, and which farm it has been on," he explained. https://www.dailysabah.com/turkiye/istanbul-begins-receiving-sacrificial-animals-for-eid-al-adha/news

Editor's Note: Our Motor1 colleagues in Germany recently visited an old friend, the Mercedes-Benz W123 wagon. Here's the experience in a special "first drive" review of this legendary Mercedes Estate. I imagine that some of you feel like I do when it comes to these older Mercedes-Benz models. Why on earth didn't I buy one when they were cheap? That would be around 10 to 15 years ago, when every German car from the 1980s wasn't being traded as if a 100-pound sack of diamonds was stuffed under the back seat.The W123 is a prime example of this phoenix-from-the-ashes kind of automotive turnaround. At the end of the 1990s, a Mercedes W123 coupe was the cool car me and my schoolyard friends coveted. But we were largely alone in this opinion—only a classmate of my brother, who was a few years older, drove a 280 CE in manganese brown with light velour upholstery. He was the idol for a 15-year-old boy named Wagner. Yes, I'm talking about me.Coupes in good condition—especially with six-cylinder engines—were not cheap even at that time (from today's perspective they were practically given away), which is why my brother, who was 19 at the time and not exactly in a good financial position, decided to buy a sedan. Nobody really wanted one, and they were cheap. So in March 1998, he bought a wheat yellow 1982 Mercedes-Benz W123 280 E, dressed inside with forest green and packing a four-speed manual transmission. It was in quite good condition with 185,000 kilometers on the clock; he got it for around $1,000. After spending much of our childhood in the old man's pea-green Mercedes 240 D, we felt like kings driving the 280. If I remember correctly, the T-model station wagons weren't exactly hot commodities in the used market 25 years ago. Tattooed furniture restorers, organic farmers, or urban cowboys with full beards weren't coming out of the woodwork to get one like they are now, but at some point over the last two decades, this forefather of the E-Class station wagon became cool. Just take this classic white 280 TE shown here. Built in 1979 and showing nearly 50,000 kilometers on the clock, you'll easily spend $48,000 to buy it today. Of course, the condition is so shockingly wonderful that you're afraid to even breathe near the car. And it's got a four-speed manual to boot. https://www.motor1.com/reviews/721738/mercedes-280-te-review/

Co-hosts West Indies survived a scare to start their Men's T20 World Cup campaign with a five-wicket victory over Papua New Guinea in Guyana. They needed 37 to win off the final 19 balls, but the two-time champions won with six balls to spare. Roston Chase top-scored, hitting an unbeaten 42, as his 40-run partnership with Andre Russell got them over the line. PNG fell to 7-2 in the third over of their innings when opener Tony Ura and Lega Siaka's expressive batting failed to pay off. Opener and captain Assad Vala added 21, with Sese Bau then adding 50 off 43 balls before being bowled by Alzarri Joseph to leave PNG 98-6. Wicketkeeper Kiplin Doriga added 27 not out to haul them up to 136-8. Russell and Joseph claimed two wickets apiece, with Akeal Hosein, Romario Shepherd and Gudakesh Motie all taking one. In response, West Indies opener Johnson Charles was trapped lbw by Alei Nao for a golden duck. Nao also could have dismissed Windies wicketkeeper Nicholas Pooran for a duck in the second over, with the technology showing it would have been out if reviewed. After surviving that early scare, Pooran put on a 53-run partnership with Brandon King before holing out on 27. Vala then dismissed King (34) and Sherfane Rutherford (2), with Windies falling from 61-1 to 97-5. The experienced partnership of Chase and Russell got them over the line, though, to avoid an upset. Russell ended the 17th over by pouncing on a long hop to find six before Chase hit a four off the next ball, gifted by a misfield as they scored the runs required in just 13 balls.Of the two T20 World Cup co-hosts, any chance of a home nation succeeding at this World Cup is almost certain to come from the West Indies, with the United States making their debut. While the Caribbean islands are traditionally a forced to be reckoned with in world cricket, having not even qualified for last year's 50-over World Cup in India, West Indies have plenty to prove. Just 48 hours before their World Cup opener in Guyana against 20th-ranked PNG, Windies scored 257 in a victory over Australia in their final warm-up match, marking the cards of many as a team to watch. With two wickets inside 13 balls, they set an early tone for what could have been a convincing home victory, but allowed their associate nation opponents back into the game, posting a score that was by no means challenging, but at the very least, competitive. A few pieces of sloppy fielding and not too much offered in the form of aggressive bowling allowed PNG hope, highlighted at the end of their innings when a no-ball from Joseph gifted three extra runs. Losing opener Charles in the second over meant the Windies were tested and had PNG been more confident in reviewing, it would have been 8-2 later that over. Partnerships between Powell and King and, later, Chase and Russell eventually got Windies over the line, but with this being among the easier of West Indies' Group C matches, much more will be needed later in the campaign. Like they did against PNG, West Indies should, in theory, make light work of Uganda, but will by no means be certain of victory against New Zealand and Afghanistan. Ahead of the toss, Windies captain Rovman Powell said there was "expectation" on the nation to do well, and he admitted afterwards his side "weren't quite at our best", adding "we were 60% there". They will hope to become the first side to win the T20 World Cup as a home nation, but more performances like their meek win over Papua New Guinea means that progression into the Super 8s is by no means a certainty. https://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/articles/c1ww0x7d13zo

The pain from getting kidney stones is unbearable! If you’ve ever experienced it, you know how crucial it is to avoid anything that might trigger another episode. If you’re trying to keep those painful kidney stones at bay, there are three particular items you need to avoid — luncheon meat, soda pop, and dried fruits. Dr Janine Bowring, a naturopathic shared a video on Instagram, talking about the three worst foods for your kidney that one must avoid if they are prone to developing kidney stones.Dr P Vamshi Krishna, consultant urologist, at CARE Hospitals Banjara Hills, Hyderabad says, “Individuals prone to kidney stones should consider avoiding or limiting their intake of luncheon meat, soda pop, and dried fruits.” Luncheon meat, also known as deli meat or cold cuts, is a type of precooked or cured meat that is typically sliced and served cold in sandwiches or on charcuterie boards. Luncheon meats are usually preserved by curing, smoking, or adding preservatives. These meats are often processed and can include: Ham, turkey, chicken, roast beef, salami, bologna, and pepperoni, he explains.Ingredients or compounds contributing to kidney stone formation High salt, sodium based preservatives , chemical laden taste enhancers are the compounds contributing to kidney stone, says clinical nutritionist Ishi Khosla. Dr Krishna adds that ingredients or compounds contributing to kidney stone formation are:Luncheon meat: They can be high in sodium, fat, and sometimes added sugars and nitrates/nitrites, making them less ideal for frequent consumption, especially for individuals with certain health concerns such as kidney stone formation. These are often high in sodium and animal protein. Excessive sodium can increase calcium levels in the urine, while high animal protein intake can increase uric acid production, both contributing to kidney stone formation. Soda pop: Many sodas, especially colas, contain high levels of phosphoric acid, which can increase the risk of kidney stones. Additionally, the high sugar content can lead to obesity and insulin resistance, which are risk factors for kidney stones. https://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/life-style/kidney-stones-avoid-three-foods-9358836/

Gautam Gambhir has stated that he would "love to coach" the Indian team if given a chance. With Rahul Dravid set to vacate the position of head coach of the Indian men's cricket team after the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, the BCCI have invited new applicants for the role. Gautam Gambhir, who spearheaded Kolkata Knight Riders to a title win in the 2024 edition of the Indian Premier League, confirmed his interest in the position. "I would love to coach the Indian team," Gambhir said at an event in Abu Dhabi. "There is no bigger honour. There is no bigger honour than coaching your national team." "You are representing 140 crore Indians. And more across the globe as well. And when you represent India, how can it get bigger than that?"A few days back, BCCI secretary Jay Shah had stated that the board prefers "individuals who possess a deep understanding of the Indian cricket structure and have risen through the ranks." Gambhir, who played a key role in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup win in 2007 and the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup win in 2011, will be one of the frontrunners for the job. "How can I help India win the World Cup - I think it's not me that will help India win the World Cup, it is 140 crore Indians that will help India win the World Cup," Gambhir said. "If everyone starts praying for us, and we start playing and representing them, India will win the World Cup. The most important thing is to be fearless and yes, I would love to coach India," the former India opener added confirming his interest in the job. https://www.icc-cricket.com/tournaments/t20cricketworldcup/news/world-cup-winner-puts-his-hand-up-for-india-coaching-role

Welcome to the Wall Street Week newsletter, giving you investing food for thought from our conversations on Bloomberg Television with some of the best minds on Global Wall Street. I'm David Westin, and this week we talked with Glenn August of Oak Hill Advisors about credit market reaction to interest rate policy and Niall Ferguson of the Hoover Institution about Cold War II with China and the risk of a declining world po[CENSORED]tion. If you're not yet a subscriber, sign up here for this newsletter and for daily markets analysis from Bloomberg Surveillance. One might have thought that 500 basis points of interest-rate hikes would damp the markets a bit. But right now, it’s hard to tell, and Glenn August, founder and CEO of Oak Hill Advisors, said that’s in part because of how well the economy is doing. Six months ago, he talked with us about some $1 trillion of potentially troubled refinancing, but since then “the cost of financing has come down 50 basis points.” Why? A limited supply of new deals means less demand for credit, he said. In addition, “there’s more equity in deals than there’s ever been.” All of which has led to “the market basically extending maturities as opposed to debt getting paid down.” So given the strength in the market, why did Jamie Dimon warn this week that there could be “hell to pay” in private credit? August said it’s always important to pay attention to Dimon, but the JPMorgan CEO was probably focused on some selective “aggressive underwriting.”Six years ago, Niall Ferguson of the Hoover Institution coined the term “Cold War II” to describe the West’s relations with China, and since then others have embraced the name. This version is different because there is an “intertwining of economies that really wasn’t a feature of Cold War I,” said Ferguson, who is also a Bloomberg Opinion columnist. At the same time, a military showdown with China would be extraordinarily dangerous, so it makes sense that the US is “pursuing a primarily economic or technological containment strategy.” https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2024-06-01/us-economic-strength-defies-expectations-oak-hill-s-august-says

Ford is returning to Pikes Peak later next month with a wild electric pickup. The Blue Oval has been teasing the “EV demonstrator” since March, but today, the automaker gives us a complete look at the truck while revealing it can generate 6,000 pounds of downforce at 150 miles per hour. The SuperTruck Demonstrator will achieve that figure with its equally wild aerodynamics. The low-slung pickup features a massive goose-neck wing that hangs off the back, towering above the roof of the cab. It also has a wide front splitter, outlets behind the front wheels, and a massive rear diffuser. Ford developed the truck in partnership with STARD.Ford didn’t provide any further details about its electric SuperTruck beyond how much downforce it’ll make. However, it does have some styling similarities to the SuperVan 4.2 that the automaker campaigned in last year’s hillclimb event.That, too, had a massive wing and an aggressive aero kit that kept it planted through the course’s 156 turns. Its triple-motor setup produced 1,400 horsepower. The new pickup could have a similar setup, but we’ll have to wait for more details. The Ford SuperVan 4.0 had four motors that made 1,972 hp.This is Ford’s second electric demonstrator. It released the F-150 Switchgear, built in collaboration with RTR, earlier this year. The company based it on the production Lightning platform, enhancing its off-road capability with skid plats, composite body panels, and a new suspension. Ford will likely continue teasing the pickup leading up to the event’s 102nd running that begins on June 23. We'll likely learn more details between now and when it runs up the hill. Romain Dumas, the current Pikes Peak International Hill Climb record holder, will pilot the Ford. But the Blue Oval won’t be the only automaker there with an EV. A modified Hyundai Ioniq 5 will also tackle the famous hillclimb course later in June. https://www.motor1.com/news/721735/ford-lightning-supertruck-pikes-peak-downforce/

is scheduled for June 9 at the 34,000-capacity newly-constructed Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. India and Pakistan are favorites to make it to the Super 8 stage from Group A, which also includes Ireland. India have banked on experienced players such as captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, perhaps playing for the last time in a T20 World Cup, to win back the title they won at the inaugural tournament in South Africa in 2007. Speaking on Saturday at the opening of the Blue Ocean Corporation-organized International Procurement and Supply Chain Conference in Mumbai, former Indian captain and former BCCI president Sourav Ganguly discussed his thoughts on the marquee clash.Ganguly stated that although India is better than Pakistan, the bitter rivals will present a formidable challenge in the Twenty20 format when the two teams play on June 9. "Our record against Pakistan has been very, very good over a long period of time. In the T20 format, probably Pakistan is more dangerous compared to 50-overs (format). We beat them in Ahmedabad when they came to India and we beat them easily. "India is superior and if they play well, if they play freely and I keep saying the word 'freely' all the time because (in) the last World Cup in Australia, I don't think we played freely," he said. "Just put all the cobwebs behind. Don't worry about winning or losing. Don't think about winning the World Cup. Just go and play every game," he added. On India's prospects, Ganguly said India has a strong possibility to win the T20 World Cup. The USA and the West Indies will co-host the event, and it starts on Saturday. "India have very good chances in the World Cup. India will have to play like a T20 team. There is enormous talent," he said. Ganguly also said India's chances are "very good" in the T20 World Cup but the team should play with "freedom". "...play without fear and just keep hitting. There is enormous talent, (this is) a team which has (Virat) Kohli, Rohit (Sharma), Surya (Suryakumar Yadav), (Rishabh) Pant, (Shivam) Dubey, (Hardik) Pandya, (Ravindra) Jadeja, Axar (Patel), (Jasprit) Bumrah, Sanju (Samson)," he said when asked about India's chances. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/icc-mens-t20-world-cup/india-superior-to-pakistan-but-sourav-ganguly-on-the-big-t20-world-cup-clash/articleshow/110616572.cms

Parthenium, also known as “famine weed” or “Congress grass,” as it was once called, is a widespread weed posing a significant health threat. Dr Ather Pasha, Consultant – Internal Medicine at CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, explained the dangers of this invasive plant and how to manage its harmful effects.“Direct contact with the weed can trigger skin irritation, rashes, and a condition called parthenium dermatitis in susceptible individuals. Inhaling parthenium pollen can cause allergic rhinitis (hay fever), asthma, and other respiratory problems for those with sensitivities. Even eye irritation, redness, and watering can occur upon exposure. In some cases, prolonged exposure might lead to headaches, nausea, and fatigue,” he explained in an interaction with indianexpress.com.Minimise Contact: Avoiding contact with parthenium is crucial. When working outdoors or in areas where it grows, wear protective clothing like long sleeves, pants, gloves, and even consider a mask. Maintain Hygiene: Following potential exposure, wash your hands and exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water to remove any plant residue.Medication and Treatment: Over-the-counter antihistamines, topical corticosteroids, and other treatments prescribed by a doctor can help alleviate symptoms like itching and inflammation. In severe allergy cases, allergen immunotherapy (allergy shots) might be recommended. Respiratory Protection: If you have respiratory sensitivities to parthenium pollen, wear a mask or respirator when working outdoors during its flowering season, typically when pollen levels are highest.Beyond individual precautions, community-wide efforts are vital, Pasha noted: Controlling Infestations: Measures to control parthenium growth in residential areas, parks, and agricultural fields significantly reduce overall exposure. https://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/health/parthenium-bad-for-soil-and-health-9320794/
