New Zealand is adding 17 new jobs to its Immigration Green List. The country is expanding its Immigration Green List, adding 17 new roles including panel beaters, welders, and IT administrators as it tries to address an ongoing skills shortage. The list allows employers to use Green List visas to fill specialist roles if they're unable to recruit a local, while providing a fast-track route to residency for employees. The new job additions, which also include aviation engineers, corrections officers, vehicle painters, and naval architects, open up the list to more industries, New Zealand immigration minister Andrew Little said in a statement.

REUTERS/Alyssa Pointer/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsCHICAGO, Sept 21 (Reuters) - Travel boom has delivered bumper earnings for U.S. carriers, but no-frills airlines such as Frontier (ULCC.O) and Spirit (SAVE.N) are struggling to return to sustainable profitability. Frontier is watching the trend "very carefully" and would consider adding premium seats if it lasts for multiple years, he said. Frontier's Biffle called adding premium seats a "big decision" and a "fairly expensive" move. Spirit shares are down 18%.

REUTERS/Cheney Orr/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 20 (Reuters) - Grocery delivery app Instacart's stock (CART.O) fell nearly 5% in premarket trading on Wednesday, on course to join other new stock market entrants in failing to keep up with their strong gains on debut. Shares of San Francisco-based Instacart ended 12% higher in their Nasdaq debut on Tuesday, failing to hold onto an intraday gain of as much as 43%. The company's initial public offering on Monday had given it a valuation of nearly $9.9 billion.

Defendant Andrew Lester was charged with first-degree assault and armed criminal action for shooting Ralph Yarl, 16, on the doorstep of his suburban home on April 13. Lester fired two shots through a glass door with a .32-caliber revolver, according to prosecutors. Yarl was struck in the head and an arm, apparently before crossing the threshold or exchanging any words with Lester, according to Clay County prosecutor Zachary Thompson. Lester was freed on his own recognizance soon after being detained following the shooting. His swift release fueled days of protest before he was charged days later and he turned himself back in to police.

Hurricane Lee was producing tropical storm conditions in coastal Massachusetts and Nova Scotia early Saturday, hours before its expected landfall in Canada. Tropical storm warnings were in effect for parts of Canada and a wide stretch of coastal New England in the hours before dawn. Hurricane and tropical storm watches were in effect elsewhere in Canada. New England is likely to experience weather similar to what occurs during a nor’easter, said Andrew Loconto, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Boston. The tropical-storm-force winds extend far from the center of the storm and are expected to reach the coastline.

☆ Criteo sees a $42 billion opportunity from retail media, but must solve a challenge that could cut those revenues by 20%
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-12 | by ( Ryan Joe | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +2 min

Criteo is eyeing a $42 billion slice of the retail media market. A glut of retail media networks could reduce that $42 billion retail media opportunity by 20%. Criteo said that this type of "fragmentation" could cause retail media revenues to drop 20%. He said brands will often buy across three or four individual retail media networks, which means smaller retail media networks can struggle to attract advertising dollars. The Trade Desk's CEO Jeff Green has previously announced his ambition to control "most" of the retail media market and it has aggressively sought partnerships to prove that retail ads drive sales, to inspire more advertisers to buy retail media.

Pseudoephedrine, which is found in behind-the-counter products like Sudafed, is effective at clearing congestion, Dr. Dykewicz said; just keep in mind that it can come with side effects. After that, you run the risk of rebound congestion: when the mucosal surfaces in your nose swell, making you feel even more clogged up than before. There are some sprays that you can use for longer stretches, without the rebound risk, namely steroid sprays that contain ingredients like fluticasone (Flonase) or triamcinolone (Nasacort), which are available over-the-counter. Can I treat congestion without medication? In many cases, you can treat a stuffed-up nose by standing in a steamy shower or using a humidifier to help clear your nasal passages, Dr.

Fanatics has seen that area of its business grow to more than $5 billion in annual sales, a key driver of its increasing overall revenue and valuation. The slew of recent executive appointments moves Fanatics closer to Rubin's goal of an eventual IPO as its business continues to expand beyond sports merchandise. Low Ah Kee is replacing Doug Mack, who has served as Fanatics Commerce CEO since 2014 and announced last month that he would be retiring at the end of 2023. Fanatics said Mack will work with Low Ah Kee for the remainder of the year and then will shift into a special advisory role for Rubin and the company. Opendoor announced last December that Low Ah Kee was leaving the company.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Rising U.S. business bankruptcies may raise a red flag in what otherwise appears like an economy now impervious to rising interest rates. Commenting on the numbers, insolvency research organisation ABI blamed elevated interest rates, price inflation and a resumption of student loan payments as just some of the headwinds causing stress. That partly mirrors some of built-in household resilience to rising rates related to long-term fixed-rate borrowings and still-high cash savings that now earn significantly higher rates of interest now too. And that 10% - accounting for more than 60% of index market cap - had seen no rise in net interest payments so far in the Fed campaign. But creeping insolvencies among the smaller firms - many of whom have been dubbed 'zombies' for years due to their survival solely on low interest rates - may be a better reflection of what's starting to happen at the coalface of the economy.

CNN —Travelers looking to rent an apartment for a few days in New York City will find slimmer pickings now that city officials have started enforcing new rules cracking down on short-term rentals. Airbnb has called the rules a “de facto ban” on short-term rentals (STRs) that will hurt hosts and the tourism economy. The requirements for approval are strict and follow laws that pre-date the new registration rules. Hanson said that long-term average hotel occupancy in New York City is between 80% and 85%, well above the national average between 62% and 67%. Thousands of listings across various booking sites will be affected as the new registration rules are enforced.

The 11-mile round trip left me with dead legs, a sore back and the sneaking suspicion I had made a mistake. What started as a necessity — I had no car, so I must bike — became a strategy: Errands are an opportunity for exercise. I began seeking out new errands just for the exercise they would provide. Running low on Sichuan peppercorns spurred me to cycle the nine-mile round trip to the Chinese supermarket. Earlier this year, I learned that the public library stocked a book about an ancient tomb I was researching, and my first thought was: Excellent, that’s a 4,000-step round trip!

The board president cannot do this unilaterally. A condo board can only take actions that are authorized in its condominium declaration, and in its bylaws. You can check the building’s offering plan to find these documents and see if the board president was authorized to purchase, install and monitor the cameras, said Andrew Lieb, a real estate lawyer. If the cameras were installed in accordance with the bylaws and in good faith for the protection of the building and unit owners, it will be difficult to contest.
