Amalia Conner registers to vote so she can cast her ballot in midterm elections at the Bay Ridge Civic Association in Annapolis, November 8, 2022. An expected "red wave" of votes for Republican candidates did not come to fruition in the November midterm elections. The survey was conducted in November immediately after the election by bipartisan polling team Fabrizio Ward and Impact Research. Inflation and rising prices topped the list of overall voter concerns, with 33%, followed by abortion, 28%, and threats to democracy, 25%. Democratic candidates ranked high with voters who are concerned most with abortion and threats to democracy.
Nov 16 (Reuters) - Argentina's rising central bank debt poses a risk to the country's monetary stability, ratings agency Moody's said on Wednesday, adding it could further stoke inflation and aggravate any exchange rate shock if savers flee from the local peso currency. "With the amount of pesos the central bank and government have, they may conclude that they have no choice but to limit access," Moody's analyst Gabriel Torres said in a webinar. "Argentina has not been in that situation for a while, but it has done so in the past," he added. In a report Moody's said central bank interest-bearing debt had increased significantly relative to GDP in the last two years, while its ratio to the monetary base was now over 200%. "Argentinean banks' exposure to government and central bank debt – mostly denominated in local currency – has recently increased and poses systemic risks for the financial sector."
The data center industry is booming and eager for land, which can push up property prices in residential areas. The partnership aims to develop a proof-of-concept for how low-carbon fuel cells can provide green power for data centers. Fuel cells are recognized as a cleaner and quieter power solution that can reduce the strain on urban power grids. Fuel cells can help reduce the data center industry's reliance on natural gas and diesel-powered generators, he added. In the webinar, Summers emphasized how important it is that any solution for low-carbon fuel cells turns into an "open standard."
Cathie Wood's flagship ARK Innovation ETF staged a dramatic relief rally Thursday on the back of an easing inflation reading . ARKK's biggest holding Zoom Video popped about 12%, while Tesla jumped nearly 7%. The innovation investor has been calling deflation for some time, betting the high prices were caused by temporary Covid-related supply issue. The innovation investor just doubled down on a slew of her favorite stocks this week, unfazed by the turmoil in many of these names. Wood snapped up shares of six companies Wednesday, including adding to some of her largest holdings Zoom Video and Tesla.
So, how can data centers provide more computing power while reducing their carbon footprint? "The RISE partnership will help us see the bigger picture of sustainability," he said. "We are creating greenhouses and vertical farming to reuse the heat and analyzing the data from medium-sized data centers." Other areas for improvement in data centers' environmental performance include making hardware and software more energy efficient, said Tor. Vertiv and RISE are also members of the E2P2 Tech Consortium, leading low-carbon fuel cell development to power data centers.
The COP27 climate summit gets underway in Egypt from Nov. 6. Climate Change Conference will see more than 30,000 delegates convene in the Red Sea resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh to discuss collective action on the climate emergency. Loss and damage funding, meanwhile, is recognized by many as the third pillar of international climate policy. Kerry's openness to talks on loss and damage funding marked an abrupt change in tone from just one month earlier. Singh said political mobilization over loss and damage funding makes COP27 the most important COP yet.
Fg Trade | E+ | Getty ImagesA key federal program providing benefits to elderly, blind and disabled people — Supplemental Security Income — is turning 50 years old. The program, which currently serves nearly 8 million beneficiaries, was created by legislation signed by President Richard Nixon on Oct. 30, 1972. But even as Supplemental Security Income — called SSI for short — provides crucial income for adults and children with disabilities and elderly individuals, its benefits and requirements have gone decades without major updates. That's despite the fact the population served by Social Security is eight times the size of SSI. (To be sure, some beneficiaries receive both Social Security and SSI, though their benefits are reduced for doing so.)

U.S. envoy in Lebanon next week with maritime deal to sign
  + stars: | 2022-10-19 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
BEIRUT, Oct 19 (Reuters) - U.S. energy envoy Amos Hochstein will be in Beirut next week carrying a copy of the maritime agreement with Israel for Lebanese officials to sign, Lebanese negotiator Elias Bou Saab told Reuters on Wednesday. "Hochstein will be in Beirut next week with the agreement that we will sign," Bou Saab said. A traditional signing protocol with leaders from both countries present is unlikely given that Israel and Lebanon remain technically in a state of war. U.S. envoy Hochstein told a webinar hosted by the Middle East Institute on Tuesday he would be travelling to the region next week but did not give dates or destinations. "The President of Lebanon and Prime Minister of Israel will decide on the signing.
The use of a nuclear weapon is "directly tied to Russia's fate on the battlefield," one expert recently told Insider. Putin, who claimed to have placed Russia's nuclear deterrent forces on high alert just days later, has continued to remind the world of Russia's nuclear might in the months since. There are tactical nuclear weapons that are more than four times as powerful. At best, a single tactical nuclear weapon could destroy about a dozen tanks, Podvig said. Kristensen said during the ACA webinar on Tuesday that he believes it's unlikely that Russia employs nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
A Russian nuclear attack would "almost certainly" trigger a military response from Kyiv's friends, a senior NATO official said. There would be "unprecedented consequences" should Putin turn to nuclear weapons, they said, per Reuters. There would be "unprecedented consequences" should Russian President Vladimir Putin turn to nuclear weapons, the unnamed NATO official said, according to Reuters. A Russian nuclear attack would "almost certainly be drawing a physical response from many allies, and potentially from NATO itself," the official warned. "I do not believe that a nuclear response is something that the United States and its allies should be placing on the table.
SYDNEY, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Passenger airline traffic in the Asia-Pacific region should recover to around 73% of 2019 levels by year-end as travel restrictions relax, up from 53% in August, the Asia-Pacific head of airline industry group IATA said on Tuesday. "There is no mistaking I think the momentum is very strong especially with all major markets in the Asia-Pacific now open except for China," IATA Regional Vice President, Asia Pacific, Philip Goh told reporters on a webinar. Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com RegisterThe year-end traffic estimate is based on China opening its borders soon, though the actual date remains unclear, Goh said. International passenger traffic in the region was at 35% of 2019 levels in August, according to IATA, which estimates it will take until 2025 to reach pre-pandemic levels.

CNN —Covid-19 vaccinations could save thousands of lives and billions of dollars this winter. A new analysis suggests that if more people in the United States get their booster by the end of the year, about 90,000 Covid-19 deaths could be prevented this fall and winter. But if booster vaccinations continue at their current pace, the nation could see a peak of more than 1,000 Covid-19 deaths per day this winter, according to the study, published Wednesday by The Commonwealth Fund. There are now more than 400 daily Covid-19 deaths, on average, in the United States. Federal health officials have said that Americans may need to get a single updated Covid-19 vaccination every year.
Viral claims that the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare (DHW) is purchasing “porn literacy” materials and including them in their curriculum for students are untrue. On Sept. 13, the IFF published an article titled “Idaho’s government offers “porn literacy,” other corrupting practices to k-12 students,” (here). (The article’s first paragraph uses different wording to the headline, saying the DHW purchases “materials and training” from ETR “an interest group promoting porn literacy” – not that Idaho’s DHW offers porn literacy). The descriptions of the courses and table of contents make no mention of pornography or “porn literacy.” Stahl told Reuters the agency never considered the use of any “porn literacy” materials. Idaho Department of Health and Welfare (DHW) has not purchased “porn literacy” materials and included them in sex-ed curricula for students.

Private equity is a rewarding but challenging field to break into. Here is what we found about pay at private equity firms, including Blackstone, Apollo, and Bain Capital. Private equity recruiting has been starting earlier than ever Getty ImagesPrivate equity firms like to recruit from investment banks. These days, the private equity recruiting process has started earlier than ever, and it's resulting in middle-of-the-night interviews with offers being made — and blown up — all before Labor Day. General Atlantic managing director Alex Crisses walked Insider through the growth-equity investment firm's elite summer souring internship.

She talked to Insider and the VC Andrea Hippeau about how she pitched her company to investors. You can see the full pitch deck Humiston used for the round here. When investors look at early-stage companies, Hippeau added, they look for indications that the founder is the right person to invest their time and money in. In the later stages, investors start digging more into business metrics and numbers, Hippeau added. Humiston said it's not uncommon to come across "sketchy" investors who have asks that aren't standard in business — especially in the cannabis space.
