LONDON, July 28 (Reuters) - UK authorities said on Friday they were investigating defence ministry emails that were mistakenly sent to the wrong recipient, after reports that messages intended for U.S. military intelligence ended up with Russian ally Mali. Ministry of Defence officials were trying to contact the Pentagon, whose domain name is ".mil", but accidentally sent the mails to Mali, which has the domain name ".ml", the Times newspaper reported. Britain said the information that was mistakenly shared was not highly sensitive. "We have opened an investigation after a small number of emails were mistakenly forwarded to an incorrect email domain," a spokesperson for the Ministry of Defence (MoD) said, without confirming the domain's name. "All sensitive information is shared on systems designed to minimise the risk of misdirection," the spokesperson said.

My plan was to meet friends at a designated area and then find seats together in the stadium, but I started to feel anxious. I was graduating from the University of California, Berkeley, with a master's in information management. I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin as an undergrad in 2020, so everything was virtual then. This would be my first in-person graduation, and I was starting to feel the nerves.

A total of 203 Russian athletes have been sanctioned by 17 anti-doping organisations with an additional 73 charged.

WADA’s Executive Committee voted in 2018 to reinstate RUSADA subject to a number of conditions that included access to all data from the LIMS.

Corporate owners of single-family homes face mounting criticism as their presence grows. Organizers from the Center for Public Democracy stood atop the stage at the Park Hyatt hotel in Washington, DC, where they interrupted a conference for owners of single-family rental homes. Institutional owners of single-family homes have typically preferred to operate quietly. In the decade-plus since the financial crisis, institutional investors have poured billions of dollars into acquiring and developing single-family homes for rent. It's for that reason that Howard is concerned about homeowners associations barring investors from buying homes in certain neighborhoods.
