Lawmakers and member countries will now negotiate the final text, aiming for a deal before EU Parliament elections in 2024. REUTERS/Pascal Rossignol"Restoring nature brings numerous benefits to farmers," EU lawmaker Mohammed Chahim said. Lawmakers and scientists have rejected the EPP's claims, accusing the group of using misinformation to court votes ahead of EU Parliament elections next year. "This is a law on behalf of nature, not against any person whatsoever." EU lawmakers voted earlier this week to weaken another law to cut pollution from farms.

While pretax 401(k) contributions reduce your adjusted gross income, you'll owe levies on growth upon withdrawal. By comparison, Roth 401(k) deposits won't provide an upfront tax break, but the money can grow tax-free. Experts say these expected changes may also factor into the pretax versus Roth contributions analysis. Plus, recent changes from Secure 2.0 have made Roth 401(k) contributions more appealing for some investors, she said. Consider your 'legacy goals'"Legacy goals" are also a factor when deciding between pretax and Roth contributions, said Lawrence from Mariner Wealth Advisors.

Beyoncé’s two solo releases before “Renaissance” — her 2013 self-titled album and “Lemonade,” from 2016 — were billed as “visual albums,” featuring a fully realized music video for each track. Throughout the set, Beyoncé wove interpolations of her predecessors’ songs throughout her own, as if to place her music in a larger continuum. The grandiose “I Care” segued into a bit of “River Deep, Mountain High,” in honor of Tina Turner, who died in May. (The merch on sale at a Renaissance Tour pop-up shop in the days before the show included a hand-held fan emblazoned with the song title “Heated” for $40. The show contained moments that sometimes felt conceptually cluttered and at odds with the “Renaissance” album’s sharp vision, like dorm-room-poster quotes from Albert Einstein and Jim Morrison that filled the screen during video montages.

How Do You Spell Discrimination?
  + stars: | 2023-07-07 | by ( Cynthia Greenlee | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
In 1936, the eighth grader MacNolia Cox became the first Black student to win the Akron, Ohio, citywide spelling bee. Spelling bees fit neatly into the idea of American meritocracy and are, increasingly, a vehicle for immigrant industry. Weatherford’s depiction of Cox’s journey pairs facts gleaned from newspaper accounts with directive questions: “Can you spell discrimination?”It is not subtle. But at a time when many Americans will offer any explanation for racism but racism, there is value in being on-the-nose. Even in seemingly straightforward games of achievement like spelling bees, the best and the brightest don’t always secure the victory, and racism can curdle the whole affair.

Then they got word that the top offer on a house they’d bid on in Hanover Township had fallen through, and that their second-place offer — $60,000 over the $610,000 asking price — was now sufficient. In mid-June, they closed on the four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath split-level on 1.2 acres, and a few days later they were signing up for Hanover’s Bee Meadow Pool, library cards and new driver’s licenses. “Climactically and culturally, I just didn’t see us putting down permanent roots in California,” said Mr. Trexler, who grew up in nearby Summit, N.J. (Ms. Trexler, 46, grew up in East Hanover.) “It’s been so easy to reassimilate into what we had before. This Morris County township with about 15,000 residents has highly rated schools and some of the lowest property taxes in the area — and many buyers are scrambling to find a house there.

Meta to launch Twitter challenger app Threads
  + stars: | 2023-07-04 | by ( Martin Coulter | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
July 3 (Reuters) - Meta Platforms (META.O) plans to launch a Twitter-rivalling microblogging app called Threads, days after Twitter boss Elon Musk attracted criticism by announcing a temporary cap on how many posts users can read on the social media site. Threads is expected to be released on Thursday and will allow users to retain followers from photo-sharing platform Instagram, and keep the same username, a listing on Apple's (AAPL.O) App Store showed. While alternative microblogging sites - such as Mastodon and Blue Sky - have seen an uptick in user numbers since Musk's acquisition, neither has been able to challenge Twitter. The launch of Threads represents a credible threat to Twitter under Musk, whose attempts to boost revenues and reshape the platform his own image have faced severe criticism. Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on a similar launch on the Google Play Store.

But Bryant spotted a Honda truck on Marketplace from a seller she'd dealt with before on the site. She uses the Kei truck to cater for her 18 hives, each housing at least 50,000 bees.

"But the other 20%, which is the personal side of personal finance, is based on our backgrounds, our histories, our socioeconomic status, race, creed, segmentation, all of that." Here are three unique financial challenges queer people face, and how LGBTQ-focused financial planners say they can overcome them.

Eight times world champion Ogier, who is competing part-time this season, was 22.8 seconds clear of team mate and 2022 winner Kalle Rovanpera after the day's six stages over rutted, rocky and sandy tracks. Except for the hybrid issue this morning we had a perfect day, so we can be happy," said the Frenchman, who had been only 2.5 seconds clear of Rovanpera at midday service in Naivasha.

Some 28% of workers made Roth contributions in 2021, up from 18% in 2016, according to the Plan Sponsor Council of America.

Roth 401(k)s vs. Roth IRAsIf you're thinking the rules for Roth 401(k)s sound similar to those for Roth IRAs, you're right. Plus, you can contribute a lot more to a Roth 401(k) than a Roth IRA. For 2023, you can contribute up to $22,500 to a Roth 401(k), plus an extra $7,500 for those age 50 and up.

Reparations Are No More Than a Dream of Privilege

Journal Editorial Report: The state may force everyone to pay for centuries-old wrongs. Images: AFP/Getty Images/The Sacramento Bee/APIf simple logic were the only measure of truth in matters of race, reparations for black Americans would make perfect sense. We have endured four centuries of an especially mean and degrading persecution. Slavery, and the regime of segregation that followed it, was dawn-to-dusk, cradle-to-grave oppression. The only argument against reparations would be that no contemporary offer of reparation could ever be sufficient compensation.

A satirical article about U.S. President Joe Biden switching the Stars and Stripes flag of the United States at the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial in Washington D.C. with a Pride flag was shared online as if it were factual. Posts on social media shared a photograph in which the monument, representing the U.S. victory on the Japanese island of Iwo Jima during World War Two, bears a Pride flag instead of its usual American flag (here). However, the claim stems from a satirical website and the image circulating is digitally altered. Christopher Hershey, Chief of Staff at the George Washington Memorial Parkway, maintained by NPS and where the Marine Corps War Memorial is located, said in an email that the U.S. flag at the monument has not been replaced. This allegation stems from a satirical article by website Babylon Bee.

CNN —Sweet crayon drawings by a very young King Charles III will show a different side to Britain’s royal family when they come up for auction this week. Emma Errington/Hansons AuctioneersIt is thought that Charles drew the crayon and pencil pictures of his parents between 1953 and 1955, when he would have been about 5 or 6 years old. The young prince chose a more sober black and white for his drawing of his father, Prince Philip. There are eight other drawings by the young Prince Charles, as he was at the time. There is also a cartoon-style illustration, thought to have been done between 1954 and 1956, which the young prince drew for his father.
