PORTLAND, Ore. — A lot of political changes are coming to Portland, Ore.The open mayoral race in the state’s most populous city features 19 candidates — all vying to lead after years of growing frustration over homeless encampments.

The October international break is now over – but the real impact on Fantasy Premier League managers is perhaps yet to be measured. Over 200 top-flight players have been representing their nations over the last week, including many of the highly-owned picks in Fantasy. Some of those players are now flagged as doubts for Gameweek 8, including Arsenal pair Bukayo Saka (£10.1m) and Kai Havertz (£8.3m). The pre-match press conferences will hopefully help clear up some of those injury concerns. It’s not just yellow, orange and red flags that Fantasy managers should consider ahead of Saturday’s 11:00 BST deadline, however.…
Investors are often guided by the idea of discovering ‘the next big thing’, even if that means buying ‘story stocks’ without any revenue, let alone profit. But as Peter Lynch said in One Up On Wall Street, ‘Long shots almost never pay off.’ Loss-making companies are always racing against time to reach financial sustainability, so investors in these companies may be taking on more risk than they should.In contrast to all that, many investors prefer to focus on companies like Corpay (NYSE:CPAY), which has not only revenues, but also profits. Now this is not to say that the company presents…

It’s a notorious freak moment in daytime television. On Sept. 13, 1978, one of the three competing bachelors on “The Dating Game” was Rodney Alcala, who turned out to be a serial killer; he was captured the following year. (He was convicted of five murders, though it’s believed that he may have committed as many as 130.) It’s no joke — or maybe it’s a meaningful one — to say that Alcala had the looks and personality of a 1970s ladykiller. He was coiffed like one of the Hudson Brothers, with a chiseled grin redolent of Engelbert Humperdinck. He practically…

They finished the game shooting 10-for-36. From 3-point range: 0-for-9. Stewart still had a double-double with 11 and 11, including six offensive rebounds.Also, various academics have concluded that “home advantage” is partially due to the officials not being able to fight the temptation to give the home team a few close decisions.

Wasn’t she actually bashful in the studio?As I can be. I can come off as a total prude, but the flipside of me can be anything but. I just delighted in this discovery of her life, so in “Dance to the Music” I do sing, “Just like Summer said…”Photo: Charlotte RutherfordYou and her have so much overlap, including having diehard gay fanbases. Was there one moment when you realized you’d started developing this fervent gay following?There’s definitely a moment I remember in around 1989 or 1990. In Sydney, the most famous gay bar at the time was called the Albury…
