Live Commentary By: newboldjsl, ewangalesport, Benjamin Vinel, Haydn Cobb Correction: Molina is now in the #50 and he is right in the middle of an unneeded battle with Vandoorne in the #94.  The pitstops continue to cycle through as the #8 and #4 box - Hartley departing the Toyota for Hirakawa. Now the race leader is in: the #50 changes tyres and Fuoco gets back underway. The #311, #5 and #99 all stop as well. There are a lot of tyre changes early on in the race as the #94 Peugeot attacks the Ferrari as it tries to get its new rubber up to temperature. The pitstop cycle for Hypercar is open and the #51, #20 and #7 are all in.  New tyres go on the #51 which was third before Pier Guidi gets going. That leaves the #6 in third but eight seconds down on the #83. A quick tyre update for the Hypercar class - all cars are in mediums except the #35 Alpine, which is on softs. The #7 Toyota has one soft tyre after Kobayashi's off at Mulsanne earlier. Expect plenty of quadruple-stints through the evening and into the night. I wonder how much of Cadillac's

There was a time when corporate America was not very online. Most companies used social media for promoting products and services or engaging with consumers in a friendly fashion. Political posts on a company Twitter account were rare. That all changed between 2012-2022, when the volume of partisan speech on Twitter (now called X) from large corporations surged, more than doubling beginning in 2017, according to a new National Bureau of Economic Research working paper. Researchers said the spike was driven disproportionately by companies using language associated with Democratic politicians. The moves frequently had negative effects on company stock prices. In this edited conversation, the paper’s coauthor Elisabeth Kempf, Jaime and Raquel Gilinski Associate Professor of Business Administration, explains corporate Twitter’s abrupt shift. It seems ubiquitous now, but corporations putting out partisan-sounding tweets is only a recent development. What did you find? Partisan speech was very rare for companies. Less than 1 percent of all the tweets they sent between 2012 and 2017 would constitute what was, according to our measures, very partisan speech. Wading into partisan, polarized issues can be tricky for companies. We saw the first big change in 2017 where both Democratic and Republican partisan speech picks

A sense of celebration filled the air at the Pike County Jail as a group of women walked across a classroom space not usually known for applause. But on this day, they were recognized — not as inmates, but as aspiring business owners. The event marked the culmination of “New Start Up,” a five-session entrepreneurship program led by Troy University’s Small Business Development Center (SBDC), in partnership with the Pike County Sheriff’s Office and the Sorrell College of Business. Each participant received a certificate of completion signed by Dean Judson Edwards and SBDC Director Juliana Bolivar, symbolizing the work they put into learning business fundamentals, building financial awareness, and — perhaps most importantly — believing in possibility again. “We started this program with a simple idea: that with the right tools and support, a person can start over,” Bolivar said. “This space became more than a classroom. It became a place for dreams, second chances, and the kind of learning that sticks because it’s tied to real hope.” The series covered topics ranging from business modeling and budgeting to professionalism, branding, and communication. Participants learned how to create business plans using what they already had, explored AI tools to enhance their skills, and discussed practical strategies for repairing credit and

Vice President JD Vance is threatening to deport the fashion guru who went viral for criticizing his suits as “too small” and his ties for not matching the occasion. Derek Guy, known as the “Menswear Guy,” said Sunday he is in the U.S. illegally—a revelation that right-wing accounts and Vance quickly seized on. “The menswear guy just openly admitted on here that he’s here illegally,” one X account posted. A second user quote-tweeted that initial post and added, “JD Vance I know you’re reading this and you have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.” This caught the vice president’s attention. Vance replied at 11:30 a.m. Monday with a GIF of Jack Nicholson slowly nodding his head, raising his eyebrows, and flashing his menacing, signature grin. Vance, 40, did not elaborate further on his veiled threat. His office did not respond to an email from the Daily Beast asking for clarification on whether he is serious or not. Guy responded to the threat with a joke about how tight Vance’s clothes can be on occasion. “I think I can outrun you in these clothes,” he tweeted at Vance. Guy said he was inspired to tell his story because of
