England v New Zealand 2026 Test cricket highlights: Catch-up and on-demand

Published by Daniella Wilson

Test cricket is an endurance sport. This summer’s series between England and New Zealand will be settled across 15 days – assuming all three matches go the distance. The early signs are that we could well be in for a thriller. Ben Stokes’s side need to bounce back from another Ashes embarrassment and coach Brendon McCullum is under pressure to repay the faith shown him by the decision makers. New opener Emilio Gay and returning seamer Ollie Robinson are among the additions that the hosts hope can turn fortunes around, but much will hinge on the performances of the usual suspects, such as Joe Root, Harry Brook, and the captain himself. If England aren’t up to it, then they will be exposed by a well-drilled New Zealand team with a functional batting line-up and a probing seam attack. The problem with a 15-day series is that watching every moment of the action is nearly impossible, but that’s where the highlights come in, allowing you to catch up on all the best bits from Lord’s through …

Attal highlights break with Macron in first rally in French presidential bid – POLITICO

Attal highlights break with Macron in first rally in French presidential bid – POLITICO

Published by Sam Flores

His campaign mirrors the very successful campaign of centrist liberal Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten in October 2025, which focused on optimism about the future and prioritizing the young generations, while exalting a sense of national pride. “My first promise is that we will once again become Europe’s leading power within six years. That is our rank, our place, our destiny,” he said, also vowing to make France the leading European country in artificial intelligence. Attal is following incumbent French President Emmanuel Macron as the presidential candidate of the centrist liberal Renaissance party, which he heads. After almost 10 years of Macron governments and dwindling popularity, Attal is seeking to distance himself from Macron to frame his candidacy as one of change and reform. The 37-year-old politician served as prime minister under Macron from January-September 2024. He was the youngest prime minister in French history and the first openly gay. The latest polls put Attal in fourth place at 13 percent of popular vote, preceded by far-right French Rally candidate Jordan Bardella, center-right Édouard Philippe, …

CETCO highlights PFAS remediation tech at EPA roundtable

Published by skeptic

Minerals Technologies Inc. announced that its environmental solutions business, CETCO, took part in a high-level United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) roundtable in Washington focused on PFAS remediation. The event brought together government officials and industry leaders to discuss technologies aimed at removing so-called “forever chemicals” from drinking water and contaminated sites. CETCO was represented by Barry Shadrix, Global Director of Water and Remediation, alongside EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, US Health & Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and other specialists working in PFAS remediation. The discussion centred on practical solutions, innovation, and the cost of treating PFAS contamination across the United States. The meeting highlighted growing federal and commercial interest in scalable PFAS remediation technologies as regulators and utilities face increasing pressure to address contamination in water supplies and soil.

Fox News Anchor Highlights Trump’s Recent Threat

Fox News Anchor Highlights Trump’s Recent Threat

Published by Sam Flores

Fox News is … sounding the alarm? Shortly after the conclusion of a Cabinet meeting Q&A at the White House on Tuesday, Fox News anchor John Roberts decided to zero in on one very disturbing thing President Donald Trump did: casually threaten to blow up Oman. During the Q&A, Trump rejected a plan to have Oman and Iran jointly control the Strait of Hormuz. “The Strait is going to be open to everybody. It’s international waters,” Trump said. “We’ll watch over it, but nobody’s going to control it. Oman will behave like everybody else or we’ll have to blow them up. They understand that. They’ll be fine.” “In the middle of all that — and it really kind of went unnoticed by the reporters,” the visibly flummoxed anchor said. “President Trump became the first American president that I know of to ever threaten to take military action against Oman, saying that they have to behave like everyone else or we’re going to blow them up. I’m not quite sure what that was all about.” “Let’s …

Published by Daniella Wilson

BTS, the trailblazing global boy group who helped popularize K-pop internationally, made their grand return to Las Vegas Memorial Day weekend. The seven-member outfit, comprising members RM, Jin, Suga, J-hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook, sold-out four nights at Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium as part of their Arirang World Tour. BTS played their first show in Vegas on Saturday (May 23) and will resume on May 27 and 28. The K-pop group last played the stadium in 2022 during their concert series Permission to Dance on Stage — it was one of the few locations the group performed the show due to COVID regulations at the time. The Bangtan Boys had just as many fans lining up to see their Sunday night two concert as the group did four years ago. The stadium inside was illuminated by the group’s lightsticks, known as ARMY Bombs, and the screams were near deafening. Lines to get in wrapped throughout the stadium’s parking lot, and there wasn’t an empty seat visible throughout the venue. Sunday’s concert was a just over two-hour show …
