The adorable rodent took her skis for a spin, captivating audiences with her impressive water-based maneuvers.Twiggy’s extraordinary journey began in 1978 when Chuck and Lou-Ann Best rescued her as a helpless baby.

Apple will try to sway European Union antitrust officials at a closed-door hearing on Friday against pushing forward with a potential fine or order against app restrictions in a probe sparked by music-streaming service Spotify. The Commission is in the final leg of a three-year probe into the tech giant over rules for app developers that sell their services on Apple’s App Store. Apple takes a cut of some subscriptions sold on the store that some developers complain is unfair.The hearing comes just days before Big Tech giants must notify themselves as gatekeepers that can govern access to key digital services and shortly after EU antitrust chief Margrethe Vestager said she may leave her post before the end of her mandate to run for the top job at the European Investment Bank.Apple will spend several hours laying out its defense against a February statement of objections, two people involved in the case told POLITICO.

Jens Stoltenberg is set to stay on as NATO’s chief for another year, four people familiar with the decision told POLITICO.A U.S. official said the secretary general’s leadership extension is “a done deal.” Asked if that was the case, a senior diplomat from Western Europe said “yes,” adding it “will be formalized next week.” A senior diplomat from Eastern Europe and a senior NATO official also confirmed there is consensus within the alliance for an extension.The officials were granted anonymity because they were not authorized to preview the move before the official announcement. A spokesperson for NATO didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.The move to retain Stoltenberg was widely rumored and expected ahead of a major NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania next month, billed as one of the most important alliance gatherings in years amid Russia’s war in Ukraine.Allies wanted to make a decision on whether to keep the secretary general in place or find new leadership before th...Mike Pence meets with Zelenskyy in surprise trip to Kyiv

Former Vice President Mike Pence met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Thursday in a surprise trip to Kyiv, marking the first time that a Republican presidential candidate has made such a visit since the Russian invasion.“I believe America’s the leader of the free world,” Pence told NBC News, which was first to report the trip. “But coming here just as a private citizen — being able to really see firsthand the heroism of the Ukrainian soldiers holding the line in those woods, see the heroism of the people here in Irpin that held back the Russian army, to see families whose homes were literally shelled in the midst of an unconscionable and unprovoked Russian invasion — just steels my resolve to do my part, to continue to call for strong American support for our Ukrainian friends and allies.”The trip comes as Ukraine is in the midst of a crucial counteroffensive against Russian forces that have had ample time to solidify their defenses, while Moscow continues to manage t...Theresa May: UK is ‘falling behind’ on climate action

The U.K. is “falling behind” other countries in the fight against climate change and has been “too slow to act” in response to U.S. and EU subsidies for green industries, former Prime Minister Theresa May said.In a speech on Thursday to mark the fourth anniversary of the U.K. putting its 2050 net zero target into law — a move made under May’s leadership — the former leader said that the energy transition was the “growth opportunity of the century.”But she warned that foreign subsidies were “reshaping global supply chains before our eyes” and that, without a “clear response,” the U.K. was “putting at risk its reputation as a leader in climate policy.”May’s words echoed criticism from the government’s own independent climate advisers, who said this week that the U.K. had “lost its clear global leadership position” on climate change.The U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the EU’s Green Deal Industrial Plan were both “already impacting” the U.K. economy, May sa...‘French Murdoch’ sparks fears of far-right lurch at iconic paper

PARIS — French conservative media tycoon Vincent Bolloré’s influence on France’s media landscape is raising concerns — again. For the second weekend in a row, French readers won’t find their traditional reading at newsstands or online, as journalists at the flagship Sunday newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche (JDD) have been on strike following the appointment of a controversial editor. The naming of right-wing personality Geoffroy Lejeune as the publication’s top editor has stirred outrage not only in the newsroom, but also among politicians and a broad swath of intellectuals and celebrities, including filmmaker Nicole Garcia and the rapper and producer JoeyStarr, who are worried that the influential mainstream newspaper will become a mouthpiece for the far right. A proud friend of Marine Le Pen’s niece Marion Maréchal, the 34-year-old Lejeune openly backed far-right presidential candidate Eric Zemmour in last year’s campaign. “It’s almost a provocation,” Céline ...Latest news
