Read previewBudget airlines are upending many of their original business plans as increased costs wreak havoc on their bottom lines. On Thursday, Southwest Airlines announced the end of its open seating policy, a 50-year practice of letting passengers choose their seats based on their boarding order instead of having one pre-assigned. Budget flying has been moving in this direction for yearsThe industry's sea change has left budget carriers scrambling to increase revenue without turning away customers, prompting major policy changes. Other budget airlines have been similarly evolving their business models in recent years. Frontier Airlines and Spirit Airlines, for example, ditched most cancellation and change fees for ticket holders.

He's not doing all this out of the kindness of his heart; he's doing it because he wants the credit-card rewards. In a recent poll from Ipsos, 71% of Americans surveyed said they had some sort of rewards, points, or cash-back card, and 80% of those with such a card said they valued their rewards. But maybe we love our credit-card rewards too much, to the point that it's making us act in less-than-ideal ways toward those we hold near and dear. But credit-card rewards are, indeed, making things uncomfortable. I recently booked a fight with a friend who remarked she'd gotten some $300 in travel credit from her rewards card.

Toy company Hasbro beat Wall Street expectations for the second-quarter on Thursday, thanks in part to growth in its digital gaming segment. Though Hasbro's revenue declined 18% overall for the quarter, its Wizards of the Coast and digital gaming segment saw 20% revenue growth. Hasbro attributed the revenue increase for Wizards of the Coast and digital gaming to the launch of MAGIC's card game, Modern Horizons 3, and the continued impact of licensed and digital gaming, with Monopoly Go! CEO Chris Cocks said during the company's earnings call that it continues to invest in its digital gaming portfolio, highlighting the recent appointment of John Hight as president of Wizards of the Coast and digital gaming.

Opinion | The Kamala Harris Report Card
  + stars: | 2024-07-25 | by ( David Brooks | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
At the beginning of 2019 I wrote a column enthusiastically arguing that Kamala Harris was the Democratic Party’s strongest candidate to take on Donald Trump. My core argument was pretty simple: If Democrats hoped to defeat him, they needed the toughest gladiator they could get, and Harris filled that bill. Other moments, I think the Democrats are suffering from a mass hypnotic delusion, nominating a candidate who is seriously flawed. In order to make sense of this mishmash of thoughts, I thought I’d put together a report card of her strengths and weaknesses. In the rallies and events she has done since her ascension, Harris has been dominating, poised and exuberant.

In the video, the Chinese graduate student stared straight into the camera as she spoke. Then she issued an explosive accusation: A prominent professor at a top Chinese university had been sexually harassing her for two years. The next day, Renmin University fired Mr. Wang, saying that officials had investigated the student’s allegations and found that they were true. The swift response by the university reflected the growing pressure that Chinese academic institutions have come under to curb sexual harassment on campus. In recent years, several schools have been accused of not doing enough to protect their students from tutors and professors who preyed on them.

Cole is an example of what retirement can look like with a good savings plan and a variety of government assistance programs. Her prior government role left her with a hefty retirement benefit; she still gets healthcare. She's taken advantage of a few water aerobics classes in DC and was swimming up at a pool near Capitol Hill. "The last season," what she calls the "senior season" of life, is the best, Cole said. "I know people think they're in a good season now, but live long enough to get that Medicaid card," she said, adding: "I don't have nobody to tell me what to do.

Diverse donors race to help elect Kamala Harris

And Democratic-aligned donors from all those worlds are eager to help Harris get there. That figure marks the year of the sorority’s founding at Harris’ alma mater, Howard University. More than 1.1 million donors have contributed – with 62% of them first-time givers this cycle, Harris’ campaign said. He said he held his first fundraiser for Harris at his Boston-area home during her successful 2016 Senate campaign. But for all the early enthusiasm, the groups supporting Harris say big challenges remain – both in sustaining her campaign’s early financial momentum and in helping blunt looming attacks on her race and gender.
