Greece has become the first majority-Orthodox Christian nation to legalize same-sex marriage under civil law. Public opinion in majority Orthodox countries has mostly been opposed, too. Civil unions may become more common among Orthodox countries gravitating toward the European Union. Greek Orthodox showed relative tolerance, with half of Orthodox saying homosexuality should be accepted and a quarter favoring same-sex marriage. As head of the Russian Orthodox Church, he oversees the world's largest Orthodox flock.

REUTERS/Tina Bellon/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 1 (Reuters) - Aurora Innovation (AUR.O) on Wednesday opened its first lane for driverless trucks connecting Dallas and Houston, supported by its commercial trucking terminal in Houston, ahead of a launch in 2024. "Bringing our commercial-ready terminals and services online a year ahead of our planned commercial driverless launch between Dallas and Houston enables us to focus next year on integrating our driver-ready trucks into our customers' operations," said Chief Product Officer Sterling Anderson. Aurora said it would operate its terminals day and night, which will support more than 75 commercial loads for pilot customers. Aurora's portfolio of products includes Aurora Driver, its self-driving technology that can be employed across vehicle types, and driverless trucking subscription service Aurora Horizon. Aurora has partnerships with Uber Technologies (UBER.N), Toyota (7203.T), Volvo (VOLVb.ST), and PACCAR (PCAR.O), among others.

A veto by the governor can still be overturned if the legislature chooses to vote in favor of the bill with a two-thirds majority in each house. While many states, including Texas and Arkansas, have allowed the testing and operation of self-driving trucks, California - home to Alphabet (GOOGL.O), Apple (AAPL.O) and some of the most cutting-edge tech startups - bars autonomous trucks weighing more than 10,001 pounds. Developing autonomous technology has proved harder and more expensive than expected, leading to job cuts and even companies shutting shop. But labor unions led by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters have been calling for Governor Newsom to sign the bill, saying autonomous trucks - some of which weigh over 80,000 pounds - were unsafe and would lead to job losses. Governor Newsom in his veto message said any regulations framed by the department of motor vehicles would be transparent, with inputs from stakeholders and experts to ensure safety.

Companies Aurora Innovation Inc FollowJuly 18 (Reuters) - Self-driving technology firm Aurora Innovation (AUR.O) said on Tuesday it plans to sell $600 million worth of class A common stock in a private placement, sending the company's shares down more than 10% in after-market trading. The company also commenced an underwritten public offering of up to $200 million of its Class A common stock. Aurora said in a regulatory filing it expects to report that it had $785 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, exclusive of restricted cash, as of June 30. Aurora on Tuesday forecast quarterly cash use of $175 million to $185 million, on average, from the third quarter of 2023 through its planned commercial launch. The company plans to launch its self-driving Aurora Driver platform at the end of 2024.

Goldman Sachs says it's a good time for investors to eye single stock options ahead of a slate of quarterly results. The firm compiled a list of stocks Goldman labels as "out-of-consensus opportunities" for put and call options ahead of each company's quarterly earnings report date. Goldman sees 3% upside to earnings consensus for the current quarter and 4% upside for the next four quarters. Goldman Sachs retail analyst Kate McShane is forecasting 34% upside for the stock over the next 12 months. Ahead of upcoming results, Goldman recommends buying call options for a $37.50 strike price, expiring in August.

Aurora and Waymo instead want to use warning beacons mounted on the truck cab to avoid needing human drivers. Waymo and Aurora say that without an exemption driverless trucks would need a human on board, which would "undermine the efficiency potential of autonomous CMVs." Waymo responded that the "exemption we put forward would permit compliant autonomous trucking operations while maintaining a high standard of safety." In the joint filing, Aurora said it maintains 28 Class 8 self-driving trucks that run on public roads, primarily in Texas, while Waymo listed 48 Class 8 trucks. Legislation to speed the deployment of self-driving vehicles and ease hurdles has been stalled for more than five years in Congress.

Buy Ralph Lauren in a challenging retail environment, Bank of America says. Ralph Lauren shares have gained about 12% to start off 2023. Still, the analyst's $145 price target, raised from $130 previously, suggests shares can rise another 22% from Friday's closing price. The analyst approved of these changes, saying the moves will help Ralph Lauren distinguish itself from competitors. "We expect RL's brand elevation strategy will continue and that AUR and market share gains will drive consistent revenue growth," Nardone wrote.
REUTERS/Phil NobleCOVENTRY, England, Feb 1 (Reuters) - Developing fully autonomous vehicles (AVs) that can go everywhere has proven harder and more expensive than expected, but investors are continuing to fund startups that target simpler self-driving vehicle solutions far removed from pedestrians and other vehicles operated by unpredictable humans. Earlier promises made by robotaxi companies of operating fleets of vehicles by the early 2020s have fallen well short. BMW iVentures has also invested in AV truck technology firm Kodiak Robotics, which managing partner Sage said has adopted a simpler approach to areas like mapping. Construction and agricultural equipment - used off-road in low-traffic environments - has been another growth area for AV startups. U.S. agricultural equipment maker AGCO Corp (AGCO.N), for instance, is using the Palo Alto, California-based startup's software for an experimental automated electric planter.

Jan 30 (Reuters) - Aurora Innovation Inc (AUR.O) on Monday named Ossa Fisher as president to focus on scaling operations at the self-driving technology company ahead of its commercial launch in 2024. Fisher is expected to begin at the new role in February and joins Aurora from education tech firm Istation, where she had served as president and chief operating officer since 2019. Last month, Aurora and Uber Technologies Inc (UBER.N) said they will expand their driverless pilot program in Texas to meet increased delivery demand during the holidays. Aurora's shares, which lost nearly 90% of their value last year, were down about 2% in extended trading.

Dec 2 (Reuters) - Uber Technologies Inc (UBER.N) and self-driving technology company Aurora Innovation Inc (AUR.O) will expand their driverless pilot program in Texas to meet increased delivery demand during the holidays. Uber Freight is a platform which connects shippers who need goods moved with available truck drivers. The companies launched their pilot program about a year ago to autonomously transport goods between Dallas and Houston. "We're crafting Aurora Horizon to help carriers of all sizes alleviate some of the supply-chain pressures that typically accompany (holiday season)," Aurora co-founder Sterling Anderson said. Aurora Innovation, which also counts FedEx Corp (FDX.N) and Toyota Motor Corp (7203.T) as partners, looks to launch the Aurora Driver self-driving platform at the end of 2024.

Nov 2 (Reuters) - Aurora Innovation Inc (AUR.O) has enough cash to sustain its operations through mid-2024, the company said on Wednesday, even as it grapples with an uncertain market for autonomous driving. Shares of the company jumped 8% to $2.03 in extended trading after Aurora said it had over $1.2 billion in cash and short-term investments, which would also be used to develop its self-driving technology. Aurora said that it had over $1.2 billion in cash and short-term investments, which it expects to fund operations through mid-2024 and enable development of the Aurora Driver technology. The company expects to launch Aurora Driver platform at the end of 2024. The company has seen its market value plunge to $2.5 billion from $12.5 billion last November, when it went public.
DETROIT, Oct 26 (Reuters) - The road map to fully self-driving vehicles is being rewritten once again, this time by Ford Motor Co (F.N) and Volkswagen AG (VOWG_p.DE). VW also bought Argo shares from Ford for $500 million. Ford previously injected $1 billion into Argo when it bought control of the company in 2017. Before it acquired the stake in Argo, VW flirted with at least two other U.S.-based self-driving startups: Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) Waymo and Aurora Innovation (AUR.O). VW reportedly considered a $13.7 billion investment in 2018 in Waymo for a 10% stake that would have valued Waymo at $137 billion.

Привычные для молдавских избирателей «русские танки» и «натовские сапоги» сменили в этой предвыборной кампании «смуглые дети», «фашизня» и «приход Антихриста». В связи с этим, по словам Литвиненко, Додон не хочет, чтобы ЦИК запретил или ограничил подвоз избирателей на участки для голосования. Глава офиса AUR в Молдове Влад Билецкий во время предвыборных дебатов призывал избирателей вместе «остановить этот бардак», чтобы партия AUR с партнерами могла сформировать коалицию в будущем парламенте. В противном случае, по словам Билецкого, придется создавать компромиссную коалицию, но в Молдове не было успешного опыта компромиссных коалиций. При этом, по его словам, AUR и в Молдове может попасть в парламент (в Румынии это парламентская партия) и приведет ее туда ПСРМ.

Decizia privind reducerea numărului secţiilor de votare în stânga Nistrului a împărţit politicienii în două tabere. Preşedintele Platformei DA a salutat hotărârea Curții de Apel, despre care a spus că este o mare victorie pentru Republica Moldova. El este de părere că decizia Curţii de Apel este o sfidare şi încalcă flagrant dreptul la vot al cetăţenilor moldoveni din stânga Nistrului. Solicitată pentru o reacţie, purtătoarea de cuvânt a Preşedinţiei a declarat că instituţia nu comentează declaraţiile concurenţilor electorali.
