☆ How Miuccia Prada Reinvented Fashion
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Nick Haramis | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +111 min

A few seasons earlier, for Miu Miu’s spring 2022 collection, Prada delivered raw-edge chino micro-miniskirts belted below the hip bone. Firstview (8); courtesy of Prada PRADA STILL resides in the Milanese apartment where she and her two older siblings, Marina and Alberto, grew up. In 1993, her days of on-the-ground protest behind her — she’d long stopped handing out flyers at rallies — Prada and Bertelli created Milano Prada Arte, which later became the Fondazione Prada. Styled by Suzanne Koller FOR THE PAST few years, Miuccia Prada hasn’t had to do quite as much all by herself. © TriStar/Everett Collection Bening and Warren Beatty in “Bugsy.” Everett Collection Bening in “American Beauty” (1999).

Domestic equipment manufacturers, such as toolmaker Naura (002371.SZ) and etching equipment maker AMEC, are winning a much higher proportion of tenders from Chinese foundries than in previous years, as chipmakers race to replace foreign-made equipment with domestically made alternatives, research showed. "There is definitely huge progress happening in the Chinese semiconductor equipment space, as reflected in the strong revenue growth metrics," he said. The Huatai Securities report revealed that for the first eight months of 2023, only one tender for lithography equipment was awarded to a Chinese company, out of many bids. "Local players still lack capability to supply a full set of equipment, such as EUV," said Nori Chiou, investment director at White Oak Capital, saying Chinese manufacturers are focused on covering mature node equipment. "It’s a long way to go to see advanced semiconductor equipment made in China."

☆ US oil is back, and ExxonMobil's $60 billion deal isn't even the biggest signal

The news came a day after a $60 billion deal between Exxon Mobil and independent oil producer Pioneer Natural Resources . Monthly production topped out at 13 million barrels per day in November 2019 and hit 9.9 million by February 2021. And offshore oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico recovered to 2 million barrels a day, but hasn't grown. Where oil companies have been spending their money U.S. oil companies cut capital spending to $106.6 billion last year from $199.7 billion in 2014, according to Statista, contributing to the decline in oil production and arguably delaying the recovery. According to Energy Department data, oil and gas companies paid out about $75 billion per quarter in the last year.

But not all Republicans want to see Jordan as speaker, second in line to the presidency. Overwhelmed and exhausted, anxious GOP lawmakers worry their House majority is being frittered away to countless rounds of infighting over rules, personalities and direction of the GOP. Handfuls of Republicans announced they were sticking with Jordan, McCarthy or someone other than Scalise — including Trump. The position as House speaker does not need to go to a member of Congress. Exasperated Democrats, who have been waiting for the Republican majority to recover from McCarthy’s ouster, urged them to figure it out.

(AP) — Regulators on Thursday gave the go-ahead for a multistate wind-energy power line to provide the equivalent of four nuclear power plants' worth of energy to Missouri consumers. At issue is the Grain Belt Express, a power line that will carry wind energy from Kansas across Missouri and Illinois before hooking into a power grid in Indiana that serves eastern states. Under the new plan, approved 4-1 by Missouri's Public Service Commission, Grain Belt Express plans to bring as much as 2,500 megawatts of power to Missouri. Previously, state utility regulators approved a line that would have brought only 500 megawatts of energy to the state. The project will help unlock $7.5 billion in energy cost savings in Missouri and Illinois, according to its developers.

(AP) — Travis Kelce is expected to be available when the Kansas City Chiefs play the Denver Broncos on Thursday night, despite hurting his ankle when he slipped on the turf in last weekend's win over the Minnesota Vikings. The Chiefs did not practice Monday, but Kelce was listed as “did not practice” on the injury report, which was an estimation of what would have happened. “He’s got quite a little bit of treatment on it and he’s feeling better, which is good,” Reid said. Political Cartoons View All 1206 Images“That's a legendary-type game to be able to battle through that,” Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Travis Kelce has long prided himself on his ability to compartmentalize his personal life and his professional life. Ever since the All-Pro tight end's budding relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift surfaced shortly before the Kansas City Chiefs' game against the Chicago Bears last month, Kelce has become an A-list headline-maker in his own right.

Rep. Jason Smith, R-Mo., speaks during a House Oversight and Accountability Committee impeachment inquiry hearing on Sept. 28, 2023. Jonathan Ernst | ReutersHouse Republicans are pressing the IRS for answers after the agency paused processing new claims for a pandemic-era small business tax break. Lawmakers voiced "continued concerns" about the employee retention credit, or ERC, which was enacted to support small businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic. The backlog of unprocessed ERC claimsAs of Sept. 27, the total inventory of unprocessed Forms 941-X, used to amend an employer's quarterly federal tax returns, was roughly 779,000, according to the IRS. However, the ERC claim backlog may be significantly higher due to professional employer organizations, or PEOs, which provide payroll benefits and other HR services.

UBS thinks it's time for investors to buy Sunnova Energy . Analyst William Grippin initiated coverage of the residential solar company with a buy rating and a $16 price target, which implies shares could gain 52.8% from Friday's close. Sunnova shares have struggled over the past year, losing more than 50%. The federal government provides ITC, or investment tax credits , to advance solar energy adoption through efforts that offset the upfront costs of solar installations, making solar energy more accessible for businesses and individuals. "However, on a 12-mo forward view, the residential solar market looks set for a recovery by 2H24, particularly if consumer funding costs ease."

The personal consumption expenditures price index increased 0.4% in August, slightly below estimates, while the yearly rise was 3.5%. But it was the core index that strips out food and energy prices coming in at 3.9%, its lowest reading since September of 2021, that is likely of most interest to the Fed. While goods prices have slowed considerably, costs in the services sector have proven harder to bring down, driven largely by housing prices. Looked at just over the past three months, the rate of core inflation has slowed markedly and is not far from the Fed’s 2% annual target. “PCE and core pce figures indicate continued inflation easing,” Kathy Jones, chief fixed income strategist at the Schwab Center for Financial Research, commented on X.

If the shutdown isn’t averted, Head Start programs serving more than 10,000 children would immediately lose federal funding, including Ferguson's program. That's what worries Lori Milam, executive director of the West Virginia Head Start.

Another pot of COVID-19 relief funds that helped Head Start ran out in the spring.

There have been 14 tries scored in the previous eight World Cup finals, less than two per match, with 73% of the points in those deciding games coming from kicks at poles. The tournament in France has already shown that when two heavyweights collide it is the boot that makes the difference. The Wallabies scored two tries to one in that match but it was kicks at poles that took Fiji to the win. The conditions so far in the tournament have been made for kickers with warm weather and the particular balls used.

That is especially concerning for parents of younger kids and those whose disabilities can make finding child care an extra challenge. One failed legislative proposal would have let students in four-day districts transfer or attend private schools, with their home districts picking up the tab. “If everybody becomes a four-day school week,” she said, “that is no longer a recruitment strategy.”In some communities, a four-day week is better for families. “They’re making the shift to the four-day week because all the districts around them have adopted a four-day week,” he said. However, the Rand Corporation found achievement differences in four-day districts, while initially hard to spot, became apparent over multiple years.

BEIJING/SHANGHAI, Sept 25 (Reuters) - Huawei Technologies (HWT.UL) kicked off a product launch event on Monday by thanking China for its support amid expectations the tech giant would later reveal more details on its latest Mate 60 smartphone series. Huawei launched the Mate 60 smartphone series last month with no pre-marketing events and has stayed mostly mum on its full capabilities. Users and analysts who bought the Mate 60 Pro said it had a Chinese-made chip and was capable of 5G speeds. He also said the company was working overtime and urgently manufacturing as many Mate 60 Pro smartphones as it could. While he did not discuss the Mate 60 smartphone series in detail, he announced the roll-out of a new ultra, high-end brand called 'Ultimate Design', whose products include a Mate 60 RS smartphone and a watch.
