China reported more than 31,000 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday, a record level that comes as the country maintains its “zero COVID” approach roughly three years into the pandemic. China on Thursday reported 31,656 new cases over the previous 24 hours, the highest daily figure since the country first detected the virus in Wuhan in late 2019. The country has continued to implement its strategy of eliminating cases entirely, including aggressive lockdowns and containment measures after most of the rest of the world loosened their pandemic restrictions. But China’s strategy has also limited those who were exposed to the virus,...

Estee Lauder and IBM have become the latest Western brands to abandon Russia - but major international companies such as Reckitt, Unilever and British American Tobacco are staying put.

UK consumer goods titans Unilever and Reckitt have both condemned...

Zoom, the software many had never heard of prior to COVID-19 and the lockdowns that followed, surged nearly 400 percent last year. But as many industries return to being in person — and competition flourishes due to other businesses offering services accompanied by other features — it took a more than 15 percent tumble on Tuesday. This is a good thing. Amid societal decay and economic turmoil, Chinese-American billionaire Eric Yuan’s company made a killing. Although shares fell, the stock recorded an astounding $1 billion in quarterly revenue for the first time in its history, beating analyst estimates. But as...

The average daily number of new coronavirus cases in the US has surged more than 300 percent in the past three weeks — with hotspot states including Florida and Louisiana seeing major spikes in infections and hospitalizations. The country notched a daily seven-day rolling average of 79,951 new cases Sunday, or a 312 percent jump over the 19,400 rolling-average figure three weeks ago, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

I recently purchased a new computer, and over the last few weeks I've been transferring files from the old one to the new one. While doing this I've been combing through some of these files and checking to ensure that they will work with new versions of various applications I commonly use. One of the things that caught my eye was the "Play Count" number for each of the MP3 and MP4 files I am moving from one computer to the other. As I went through these tracks on iTunes, I decided to rank them in the order of their...

Give us this day our Daily bread…(Luke 11)We have been learning prayer, according to none less than Jesus. He is the best qualified to teach us to pray, having a perfect and complete knowledge of God; what He requires and desires of men, and of man; His needs, limits, weakness, and our deepest longings. According to the LORD’s prayer, man’s needs are fourfold. We need to pray for our daily bread, as well as to pray for the forgiveness of Sin, and along with that, we must forgive any who have offended us. Finally we must pray for deliverance from...

A President who commits crimes on a daily basis,” the Princess Bride director said. “He was not held accountable for a foreign country helping him steal the last election. So he’s at it again. History will judge where...

1600 Daily ‘You gave us a deadline’ “We’re all working in an effort to develop an immigration reform plan that will serve the interests of the American workers,” President Donald J. Trump said yesterday. The President’s remarks came after he and Vice President Mike Pence sat down with a Republican Senate working group on immigration in the Roosevelt Room of the White House. Several quotes after the meeting reveal what 2018 could hold for one of the President’s signature issues: Vice President Pence: “We’re going to enforce the laws of this country for the citizens of this country. . ....
