Protect Yourself from Post-Storm Scams – CT.gov

CONSUMER NOTICE – July 17, 2026 Recent storms are a reminder that severe weather can leave behind more than property damage. It can also create opportunities for scammers. The Connecticut Insurance Department (CID) urges homeowners and renters to use caution when hiring contractors, responding to unsolicited repair offers, or sharing personal and insurance information following a storm. Following severe weather, scammers often take advantage of the urgency homeowners feel to make repairs. They may pressure consumers to act quickly, request large upfront payments, or offer to handle the insurance claim on the homeowner's behalf before the full extent of the damage has been evaluated. Watch for These Warning Signs Door-to-door contractors offering immediate repairs or claiming to have "extra materials" from another job. Pressure to sign a contract or make an immediate decision. Requests for full payment or a large cash deposit before work begins. Requests to sign over your insurance claim or benefits. Offers to waive or cover your insurance deductible. Refusal to provide proof of licensing, insurance, or references. High-pressure sales tactics or claims that an offer is only available "today." Protect Yourself After a Storm Contact your insurance company before making permanent repairs unless immediate action is

The legend of Cape Verde: How an island of half a million built the best team at the World Cup

On June 29, two of the most decorated programs in soccer history packed their bags and went home. Germany, a four-time world champion, lost a penalty shootout to Paraguay after a 1-1 draw, missing three spot kicks. Hours later, the Netherlands, a three-time finalist ranked seventh in the world, fell the same way, to Morocco. Both were eliminated in the round of 32, the very first knockout round of the expanded tournament. These were, by all accounts, colossal disappointments. But look at who was still standing. Cape Verde, an island nation of roughly 525,000 people appearing in its first World Cup, had already held former champions Spain and Uruguay to draws, finishing second in its group, unbeaten. They would go on to heroically push defending champion Argentina, the reigning World Cup Champions, to extra time before losing 3-2. Their journey is now over, but their story still deserves to be told.  Cape Verde’s squad was drawn largely from solid professionals scattered across the top flights of smaller and mid-ranking European and Middle Eastern leagues—Portugal, Cyprus, Turkey, Bulgaria and beyond. There were no global superstars, and only a couple of players at genuinely elite clubs like Benfica and Villarreal; most plied

Shopping With AI – Ipsos

How artificial intelligence is reshaping the purchase journey. 15.07.26 Artificial Intelligence (AI) is fundamentally reshaping the shopper experience, but not by replacing the human element. Instead, AI is emerging as a powerful ‘enhancement layer’ that makes consumers smarter and faster while they retain ultimate decision-making authority. Drawing on the latest research across 15 global markets, this paper reveals an AI paradox: while 27% of AI-aware consumers already use these tools for product research, a significant trust deficit remains, with only 9% currently allowing autonomous purchases. With 71% of people believing AI should be approached with caution, trust – not technology – is the primary driver of adoption. The winners won’t have the most advanced AI or the most traditional approach. They’ll orchestrate both by using AI to eliminate friction while preserving human moments that build preference, trust, and loyalty. Our Ipsos Views paper ‘Shopping With AI’ explores where AI is gaining traction, where shoppers are drawing firm boundaries, and why trust remains the critical variable. We offer practical guidance for brands and retailers navigating a future that demands both digital innovation and human connection – a “both/and” strategy, not “either/or”. Read ‘Shopping With AI’ to find out: How companies can

Samsung Introduces Flex Titanium Technology to Advance Foldable Displays

To meet these expectations, Samsung had to rethink how foldable displays are constructed by bringing together breakthroughs in technology, materials, and mechanical engineering. The result is the latest milestone in foldable display innovation: Flex Titanium technology. By successfully integrating display innovation with device engineering, Samsung will continue to shape the direction of the mobile industry and deliver standout user experiences. Flex Titanium: Next-Level Viewing To create a display that provides an immersive viewing experience while maintaining its ability to withstand everyday use, Samsung took a new approach to structural design. This required a material strong enough to withstand external shock, flexible enough to endure repeated folding, and thin enough to fit within a refined device structure. Balancing all three factors was essential to advancing foldable displays, and titanium offered the right mix. Known for its resilience and strength, titanium has been used in some of the most demanding applications, including satellite antennas and the wheels of a Mars rover. While its strength makes titanium a dependable material, it also presents significant engineering challenges when applied to the thin and flexible structure of a foldable display due to its stiffness. Drawing on its expertise, Samsung has integrated titanium into two key

Contact made as Liverpool spy £85m double hijack to stun Man Utd

Media watchContact made as Liverpool spy £85m double hijack to stun Man Utd Published 7 hours ago This story has been reproduced from the media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club. Liverpool could ruin the midfield plans of Manchester United this summer by beating them to two key targets, with a report revealing contact has been made for Wolverhampton Wanderers star Joao Gomes. Man Utd are in the process of rebuilding their midfield to replace the likes of Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte. However, it has been a tricky summer as they have missed out on Elliot Anderson to Manchester City and Mateus Fernandes to Tottenham Hotspur. United had agreed a deal for Atalanta’s Ederson, but it was called off after he failed a medical. Instead, the Red Devils have signed Andrey Santos from Chelsea for £48m plus £2m in add-ons and also activated Youri Tielemans’ £35m release clause at Aston Villa. Wolves star Gomes and Manu Kone of Roma are both on United’s shortlist as they seek further reinforcements in midfield, but Liverpool are threatening at least one hijack. Full story: TEAMtalk Published 7 hours ago
