Bustle's "Without This Woman" is a series of essays honouring the women who change and challenge us every day. This time we hear from Kanya King, founder of the MOBO Awards (Music of Black Origin) which marks its 25th Anniversary on Nov. 30. Below, she reflects on the woman whose caring nature knew no bounds — her mother, Mary Folan.
We all have people in our lives that inspire us and help us go the extra mile. In my case, although my mother is no longer alive, her values of determination, drive, empathy, and grit spur me on. She's always been one of my biggest influences, an incredible role model.
My mum worked in caring professions her whole life — she was an NHS nurse in home health, and she looked after my father who was sick for many years. Despite coming from a large family of nine children (I'm the youngest girl), with five of us cramped in a council house, she would often take in my brother's homeless friends.
My father came from Ghana and my mother from Ireland. She came to London at the age of about 18, when there were those photos on windows that said no Irish, no blacks, no dogs. She was ostracised from her family because her partner was black, and she had no support network — we had no grandparents, cousins or aunts. She set her roots in Kilburn, which was predominantly an Irish area.
My circumstances are what shaped me — witnessing from a young age the struggle my mother had on a daily basis, trying to bring up children, her lack of freedom and independence. She had constant worry about whether she could pay the rent, the bills, keep a roof over our heads. All of this pressure and stress provided me with my motivation and drive to succeed.
When you come from a large family, it's important to create some space. I used to spend a lot of time in my local park — it was almost like a babysitter for me. Especially when the weather was lovely, my siblings and I would be out there playing rounders. I can still see my mum walking at a hurried pace because we'd lost track of time. She'd be rushing along the dewy grass towards us. Your smile lifted when you saw her. She just wanted to know everyone was okay.
I share my overwhelming drive not to quit, not to give up, and to make sacrifices with my mum. From a young age, I realised that only I could change my circumstances. I had a lot of determination. I had dreams, but I knew I needed to be disciplined and focused turn them into reality. I wasn't out partying — I was out looking for how could contribute to the household finances. I had many jobs, from selling whistles at carnival to taking empty bottles back to the café in the park for 5p in return.
My mother worked tirelessly to provide for her family and those disadvantaged around her. She taught me to think beyond yourself, to have that community spirit. From a young age, I wanted to help those around me. I was surrounded by very talented, creative people, but sometimes I would see them go by the wayside. They couldn't access the creative industry sectors — getting into the music industry, television, or film was very much about who you knew. These opportunities were often not available to people who come from backgrounds like mine. I wanted to make a change.
My mother wanted to me be a teacher — a safe, secure job. I remember as a young girl, her telling anyone who would listen that Kanya was going to be a teacher. I left school early, so I failed in that regard. I felt that I disappointed my parents. Whenever I had an entrepreneurial idea, she'd give me many reasons why I shouldn't do it, because she was worried. In the end, I stopped telling her about my ideas. I thought, if you do the same things, you're always gonna get the same results, so how can I change things? What risks do I need to take?
At the very first MOBO awards, Tony and Cherie Blair attended. He was leader of the opposition at the time and his office rearranged his schedule so he could be there. When he arrived, my mother couldn't resist jumping on him and telling him what hard working daughter she had — basically trying to get me a job. It was only when I got my MBE that she thought I was doing okay.
When she was alive, she attended every MOBO Awards show. It was lovely to have her rallying around, getting the family together. Any important part of my career, she was always there. She was like that with all of our family members. And she'll be with us this year for the 25th anniversary of the MOBO Awards.
At the young age of 70, my mother set up her own business — a bed and breakfast. Once her kids had grown up and left the nest, she was able to do what she wanted and fulfil her own dreams. Recently, I was at an event and a woman came up to me. She said, "I met your mother over 17 years ago, when I was on my last legs. I didn't know who to turn to, I had no money and nowhere to live. Your mother gave me a place to stay and didn't charge me anything for months." I thought wow, that's my mother — a guardian angel. Caring for others was her superpower.
As told to Aimée Grant-Cumberbatch. This interview has been condensed and edited for clarity.

The reception given to the English Karno Company by American audiences, and the hardship they hard to endure, both on- and off- stage, will be admirably recounted. All this - and so much more.
The book is richly illustrated with over one-hundred and thirty scrapbook cuttings; posters; programme notes; cast lists; line illustrations; cartoons and caricatures, and several previously unpublished photographs of both Laurel and Chaplin, which together give a unique and definitive account of those 'lost' years.

TGI Fridays chief executive and three key lieutenants quit
Karen Forrester, who had been with TGI for 12 years, was said to be unhappy at being asked to sign a new five-year contract.
TGI Fridays has seen four executives quit (Lynne Cameron/PA)
By Simon Neville, PA City Editor
Four senior directors, including the chief executive, have suddenly quit restaurant and bar chain TGI Fridays UK, just weeks before the start of the all-important festive season.
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/uk-world/tgi-fridays-chief-executive-and-three-key-lieutenants-quit-38638091.html
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/uk-world/d2478/38638089.ece/AUTOCROP/h342/bpanews_29e4c645-344a-4566-8a5b-073b38684fbb_1
Karen Forrester, who has been with the business for 12 years, will leave on December 13, followed by Stuart Greener, chief financial officer; Jacqui McManus, HR director and Cain Savazzi, operations director.
It is understood that Ms Forrester quit after TGI's private equity owners, Electra, attempted to make the boss sign a new five-year deal.
Her refusal and subsequent decision to quit led to the resignations of the three other directors.
It was an incredibly hard decision to hang up my stripes, but I'm excited to be handing over to new CEO Robert Cook who will steer the company on the next stage of its epic journey Karen Forrester, TGI Fridays
She will be replaced by the former chief executive of Virgin Active gyms Robert Cook on December 2. Prior to Virgin Active, he has worked at Hotel-du-Vin, Malmaison, De Vere and MacDonald Hotels.
Ms Forrester said: "It has been an unbelievable honour and privilege to have led the magnificent TGI Fridays UK family over the last 12 years.
"It was an incredibly hard decision to hang up my stripes, but I'm excited to be handing over to new CEO Robert Cook who will steer the company on the next stage of its epic journey.
"I'm leaving a business which is strong and healthy. In the last few years we've opened a raft of new restaurants, welcomed thousands more Friday family members (employees) and served millions of satisfied guests. This year profits and sales have grown and led to some brilliant guest experience scores."
During her tenure, Ms Forrester is credited with turning around TGI's fortunes after years of decline, scrapping the tired image she described as "clown-like" and investing in open kitchens, oak floors and leather seating.
Her crowning glory was being named The Sunday Times best big company to work for in 2015.
TGI Fridays staff staged a strike in 2018 over tipping policies at the company (Kirsty O'Connor/PA)
However, in 2018, two branches went on strike over changes to tipping and service charge payments.
And in the same year, the Government revealed the company was one of several who had failed to pay staff the minimum wage, shortchanging 2,302 of its staff to the tune of £59,348.
TGI Fridays reported total sales of £208.8 million in 2018, down from £216 million the previous year. Pre-tax profits for the year stood at £3.7 million.
Electra could not be reached for comment.

Biografia
Bussy-Rabutin era il terzo figlio di Léonor de Rabutin, luogotenente generale del Nivernais, e di Diane de Cugnac, ma la morte dei fratelli maggiori fece di lui il capo famiglia. Entrato nell'esercito a sedici anni, fece molte campagne militari fino a raggiungere il grado di luogotenente generale del re.

Disse di se stesso che le sue due ambizioni erano diventare un «uomo onesto» e distinguersi nel mestiere delle armi, ma riuscì più che altro a farsi spedire alla Bastiglia per qualche mese, nel 1641 dal cardinale Richelieu tanto per una sua negligenza commessa nell'esercizio delle sue funzioni quanto per le sue galanterie.

Nel 1643 sposò la cugina Gabrielle de Toulongeon e lasciò per qualche tempo l'esercito. Ereditato il grado di generale dal padre, nel 1645 servì sotto il principe di Condé in Catalogna. Dopo essere rimasto vedovo nel 1646, cercò di rapire Madame de Miramion, una ricca vedova: l'affare fu sistemato con un risarcimento. Il Bussy-Rabutin sposò poi Louise de Rouville.

Già appartenente alla Fronda, un affronto subito dal visconte di Turenne finì per riconvertirlo alla causa reale. Combatté durante la guerra civile e all'estero: con la funzione di maestro di campo, nel 1655 fu agli ordini del Turenne nella campagna delle Fiandre e poi partecipò all'assedio di Mardick nel 1657 e si distinse nella battaglia delle Dune nel 1658, anche se non andava d'accordo col comandante in capo dell'esercito francese. Del resto, la sua vena polemica, la sua vanità e la sua abitudine a comporre canzonette sarcastiche gli alienarono la stima della maggior parte dei potenti personaggi dell'esercito e della corte.

Il grande scandalo causato nel 1659 per aver partecipato a un'orgia a Roissy durante la settimana santa, gli valse la caduta in disgrazia presso il re. Esiliato nelle sue terre, a Bussy-le-Grand, in Borgogna, vi compose una celebre Histoire amoureuse des Gaules descrivendo le avventure delle gran dame di corte, per il divertimento della sua favorita, la marchesa de Montglas. Piena di spirito ma soprattutto di licenziosità, quest'opera circolò manoscritta, suscitando anche diversi seguiti apocrifi. E una sorta di cronaca scandalosa dove si descrivono, con spirito maligno, i costumi galanti della corte durante la giovinezza del re, tanto da meritare all'autore il soprannome di Petronio francese.

Essendo stato accusato di aver compromesso la reputazione della regina, Bussy-Rabutin mandò a Luigi XIV una copia dell'opera allo scopo di smentire le accuse; ciò nonostante, egli fu rinchiuso nella Bastiglia il 17 aprile 1665 e privato così della possibilità di essere ricevuto all'Académie française dove era stato eletto da poco al posto di Nicolas Perrot d'Ablancourt.

Liberato dopo poco più di un anno, fu nuovamente esiliato nelle sue terre, dove visse per diciassette anni. Bussy-Rabutin risentì molto di questo disonore e dell'assere stato escluso dall'esercito. Poté tornare a Parigi solo nel 1682, e fu ricevuto finalmente all'Académie dove sostenne il partito dei Moderni nella nota querelle letteraria fra Antichi e Moderni. Ricevuto freddamente a corte, preferì in breve ritornare nel suo castello in Borgogna, che abbellì di molte decorazioni pittoriche.

I passaggi più interessanti della sua Histoire amoureuse des Gaules sono adattati dal Satyricon di Petronio e, a parte qualche ritratto, il suo interesse risiede essenzialmente nel carattere scandaloso delle cronache.

Animate, piene di carattere, le sue Mémoires, pubblicate postume, hanno al contrario il fascino di un romanzo d'avventure. La sua voluminosa corrispondenza è parimenti varia e ricca d'interesse, a parte quella tenuta con la cugina Madame de Sévigné che fu offesa del ritratto che egli le aveva fatto nell'Histoire di «giovane e bella vedova».

Bussy-Rabutin fu autore anche di una Généalogie de la famille Rabutin edita solo nel 1867, mentre le sue Considérations sur la guerre furono pubblicate a Dresda nel 1746. Per i ragazzi scrisse anche una serie di biografie a scopo di edificazione morale. Suo figlio divenne vescovo di Luçon e dovette avere il dono di piacere, se si meritò il soprannome di Dieu de la bonne compagnie.

Star Wars Episode 1 — The Phantom Menace 3D
Kate Muir
Friday February 10 2012, 12.01am, The Times
Ker-ching! The 3-D conversion of Star Wars Episode 1 – The Phantom Menace from 1999 will be a nice little earner. But is it any good? Well, the 3-D certainly improves the thrilling pod-racing scene with Anakin Skywalker in a couple of tin cans ducking and diving though canyons. The story, however, really creaks. Do kids really want to follow a plot about intergalactic trade embargoes? While the cityscapes benefit from the 3-D, the character-based scenes look unchanged and the dialogue and effects are clunky. Hearing Ewan McGregor trying to do an English accent as the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi had us snorting in the aisles. In all, however, with Naboo and silly planets, it reminded me most of The Mighty Boosh.

At its core, the purpose of the Green Network Plan is to overcome racial disparities and advance equitable development, overall livability and environmental resiliency in a holistic network of green infrastructure that ultimately results in the revitalization of Baltimore's most underserved neighborhoods. This plan has been two years in the making, and is the result of much community engagement and cross-partner collaboration to envision a future built around green infrastructure and the economic, social and cultural assets that define Baltimore's communities.
RTC was among the organizations and agencies that stood alongside Mayor Catherine Pugh and Planning Director Tom Stosur to announce the plan—including the Chesapeake Conservancy, Blue Water Baltimore, the African American Firefighters Historical Society, the Parks & People Foundation, The Neighborhood Design Center, Druid Heights CDC, the Department of Planning, the Department of Public Works and the Department of Recreation and Parks.
Check out a recording of the event below.
The community outreach, design conversations and partnerships that have guided our exploration of a wholly connected Baltimore trail fully support the mission of the Green Network Plan to create a more sustainable future in a city that has historically taken a fragmented approach socioeconomically with regard to planning, land use and development.
The Green Network Plan launch is another big step for the Baltimore Greenway Trails Coalition, which has been making great strides over the past year. We continue to engage communities throughout the city as we expand our broad-based coalition, which now includes more than 60 partner organizations, while working with local organizations and partners to advance community planning and design work on the Middle Branch connection in South Baltimore and the Gwynns Falls Parkway and East 33rd Street corridors.
We are simultaneously working with a variety of stakeholders across the city to develop a meaningful vision for a trail network that is positively reflective of individual neighborhoods and honors the city's history. We are thrilled that trails will play an integral role in Baltimore's larger citywide vision for revitalization—and that we have such great partners to help see our project through to completion.
We look forward to continuing our collaboration with our partners and most importantly with the residents in every neighborhood to create a network of quality community trails that will enhance the ability for all people to navigate and enjoy the city!

Plastic surgery is a delicate work.
There are no simple operations: everything is interconnected, everything matters, everything is important. Aesthetic operations should be performed on the basis of fundamental knowledge, with many years of experience in surgery, understanding the consequences of even the most insignificant surgical intervention.
Plastic surgery for me is the realisation of accumulated medical, surgical and life experience.
Mom after pregnancy and breastfeeding has a number of features.
Firstly, there are several organs and systems that can be restored only with the help of plastic surgery, for example, the chest and veins of the lower extremities. Here fitness and diets are not effective. And the face and the stomach, on the contrary, suggest a large number of non-invasive or minimally invasive techniques.
Secondly, it is usually a complex task. Operations differ from primary operations, for example, if we talk about mammoplasty, then it is not always just breast augmentation with implants, and often a breast lift, correction of asymmetry that has arisen after breastfeeding.
Thirdly, pregnancy changes the physiology, the hormonal background of a woman and this must also be taken into account. Basic medical knowledge and experience in big surgery help me here.
Fridays only! Each your child gives you 10% of the price of the service.
Mom of one gets -10%, two -20%, three -30%. Sign up for a consultation!
I will be glad to answer your questions!
Mammoplasty combines a group of operations on the breast. The main reason for which women decide to mammoplasty is psychological discomfort from an unaesthetic type of their own breasts. This often happens during the recovery period of the natural forms and proportions of the breast after pregnancy and breastfeeding, especially if you are a happy mother of 2 or 3 children.
After pregnancy, the first signs of varicose veins or "spider veins" often appear. I provide a closed cycle in diagnosis and treatment, which includes consultation, ultrasound diagnosis, on this basis I individually justify recommendations for the prevention or treatment of venous diseases, if necessary, I spend minimally invasive treatment: without pain, without anesthesia, without incisions.
Diseases of the veins are continuously progressive state and expect that "will pass by itself, decrease, improve" is completely unjustified.
Changes in the face always strongly influence the emotional and psychological state of a person. Aesthetic medicine has long learned to solve these problems, so do not accumulate dissatisfaction, and it is better to consult with a plastic surgeon on an exciting issue. The modern plastic surgery clinic in Kiev offers a wide range of services and procedures related to the face, safe and comfortable conditions for its patients.
After the sleepless nights of the first year of life of the baby and the diets restoring your form, the first need appears to correct the facial features, contour plastics in the hands of a plastic surgeon will help. The procedures are carried out in the plastic surgery clinic. For contouring, I use only brand-name, innovative products that give an aesthetic, long-lasting, safe result.
In some cases, it is necessary to perform blepharoplasty.
Changes in the abdominal wall occur in many cases after pregnancy, sometimes the situation is complicated by the presence of an umbilical or postoperative hernia of the abdomen.
There is a wide range of methods for the correction of the abdominal wall. If you have a hernia, then its treatment is only surgical. In other cases, you can often do without surgery. The art of a plastic surgeon is to choose the best way to restore the abdominal wall, and in some situations to recommend fitness and diet.
Aesthetic operation – a starting point, a new stage, and maybe even a turning point in life. The operation is morally prepared and matured, so when the patient decided, my task was to do everything so that he was comfortable and safe.
I want to thank the plastic surgeon for their professionalism and attention. She turned to the doctor with the consequences after the operation from splinter wounds in the abdominal cavity. Very afraid what could be the result after the operation. The doctor was able to find the right words and calm down. The result exceeded my expectations !!! Thanks to the operation, it was possible to avoid working with a psychologist. Now I can visit the beach in a separate bathing suit. And wear a topic. Thank you so much, success and prosperity !!!
Got to the consultation to Gennady Yuryevich Buke about varicose veins. After the consultation, it was proposed to perform radiofrequency ablation on both legs. The operation was successful. At the moment, the swelling in my legs is gone, I feel good. Many thanks to Gennady Yuryevich Buke for professionalism.
I want to express my sincere thanks to the remarkable doctor Gennady Yuryevich for the professional and competent approach to treating patients. Only one consultation and choice is made. The vein removal operation was performed on February 20th. I want to thank you for your help. You restore health to people and the beauty of the limbs they need. I really want in our time to see more of these specialists in our medicine. And God bless you, your loved ones, and as little negative emotions as possible at work !!!
Gennady Yuryevich! Once again I want to thank you for the hard work that you did with my mom! She forgot what the swelling and pain in the legs! Well, of course, the aesthetic appearance is pleasing to the eye) HUGE THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK AND CARE FOR PATIENTS !!! In each of them you invest not only your work and experience, but also a sincere attitude!
I got an appointment with Gennady Yuryevich with the problem of not the aesthetic appearance of my legs … It turned out that everything was simple for the doctor and it was easy for me to understand. After a half-hour sclerotherapy procedure and a little patience, my problems disappeared. Many thanks to the doctor.
Your application has been submitted. We will contact you shortly.

La CGS era un'vettura sportiva prodotta dal 1923 al 1929 dalla Casa francese Amilcar.

Storia

La CGS fu in pratica un'evoluzione della più semplice CC. Inizialmente andò ad affiancare quest'ultima, per poi sostituirla del tutto.
Con la CC, con la CS e con la C4, la CGS condivideva lo stesso telaio, sebbene dall'uno all'altro modello vi fossero alcuni adattamenti.
La carrozzeria era quella tipica delle vetture sport degli anni venti, con parafanghi motociclistici e parabrezza diviso in due parti.
La meccanica affondava invece le sue radici nelle prime precedenti esperienze della Amilcar con la CC.
La vettura riscosse un buon successo e si fece valere in numerose gare, ma non riuscì mai ad avere ragione della sua principale rivale sportiva, ossia la Salmson.
Nel 1925 fu affiancata dalla CGS-3, una versione dotata di passo allungato e in grado di ospitare anche tre persone.
Nel 1926 fu introdotta l'ultima evoluzione della CGS, ossia la CGSS, che rimpiazza la CGS e che otterrà anch'essa un notevole successo, pur non riuscendo ancora a contrastare efficacemente le Salmson.
La parabola della CGS e delle sue derivate si concluderà nel 1929.

Meccanica

Il motore derivava da una rialesatura di quello già montato sulla C4. Era un 4 cilindri da 1074 cm³ con distribuzione ad asse a camme laterale e a valvole laterali. Rispetto alle vetture con essa imparentate, la CGS beneficiò di alcune migliorie in diversi punti del motore, specialmente alla testata e alla distribuzione stessa. L'alimentazione era a carburatore Solex. La potenza massima era di 33 CV a 3800 giri/min. La lubrificazione era però di tipo superato, ma fu sostituita nel 1925 con un sistema più moderno ed efficiente.
La trasmissione si avvaleva di una frizione a dischi multipli a bagno d'olio, olio che proveniva direttamente dal motore tramite una pompa apposita. Non esisteva differenziale al retrotreno e il cambio era manuale a 3 rapporti.
Le sospensioni erano a balestre semi-ellittiche con ammortizzatori.
L'impianto frenante prevedeva tamburi su entrambi gli assi, ma di diametro differente tra avantreno e retrotreno.
La CGS raggiungeva una velocità massima di 115 km/h.
Mentre la CGS-3 era pressoché identica alla CGS, la CGSS presentava invece un telaio ribassato, ma le differenze non si limitavano a questo: la CGSS montava anche un impianto frenante a tamburi maggiorati e nelle ultime versioni montava anche un differenziale e un cambio a 4 marce.
Il passo era anche più corto e ciò la rendeva più leggera e in grado di spuntare prestazioni migliori, raggiungendo così i 120 km/h, grazie anche ad alcune migliorie alla distribuzione, ottenute riprofilando leggermente l'albero a camme: ciò si tradusse in un aumento della potenza massima da 33 a 37 CV.

The under-representation of women at senior levels in companies continues to divide opinion, with Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, facing a revolt by women parliamentarians over statutory quotas for women on boards and Viviane Reding, EU commissioner for justice, forced to adapt her proposed quota plan to sanctions.
But a study by Michel Ferrary, professor of human resource management at Skema Business School in France, suggests companies with at least 35 per cent women on the management team perform better during financial crises.
Analysing the stock performance of each company in the CAC40, the Parisian stock index, he composed the Femina Index, a separate index of 10 companies whose management teams consisted of 35 per cent women. These included Danone, L'Oréal, LVMH and Société Générale.
The professor then compared both indexes for six years, from 2007 to 2012, and found the CAC40 lost 34.70 per cent of its value, whereas companies in the Femina Index, lost only 5.28 per cent.
"This shows that if you design an investment strategy based on gender diversity, you will beat the market," says Prof Ferrary.
One reason for this, according to the professor, is that diversity leads to a better understanding of the market. For example, female engineers at Renault were asked to design a car and consequently came up with one that could be driven with a flat tyre. "A man would never have thought of this," he says, "as they believe [a man] should know how to change a tyre."
Another reason is that gender diversity creates better decision-making processes with more balanced risk-taking. At BNP Paribas, for example, one of the 10 companies in the Femina Index, 44 per cent of the management is female and it is considered one of the best banks in France, he says. Meanwhile, Dexia, the only French bank to go bankrupt, has only 18 per cent of women in management.
However, the professor also points out that one negative reason for this outcome is salary differences. "Women are paid less than men [which] saves money and increases the profitability of a company," he explains.
The results contrast significantly with a paper published by Germany's central bank this month that challenges the popular idea that the global financial system would be intrinsically safer if run by women. But Prof Ferrary believes his research approaches the issue from a different angle, by correlating the stock performances of companies with the number of women on the whole management team of a company as opposed to just their board.
"The 35 per cent threshold I have used makes a difference," he says, explaining that a minority of less than this has little influence on company performance.

Report: Android Users More Loyal Than iOS Users
Posted on March 9, 2018 March 8, 2018 11:09 pm
A new report from Consumer Intelligence Research Partners (CIRP) reveals that when it comes to customer loyalty, Android users have iOS customers beat.
According to TechCrunch, the research firm found that when it comes to U.S. customers who remain with their operating system when upgrading their smartphones, Android's brand loyalty has remained consistently high since early 2016. In 2017, Android had a 91 percent loyalty rate, compared with 86 percent for iOS.
"With only two mobile operating systems at this point, it appears users now pick one, learn it, invest in apps and storage, and stick with it," said Mike Levin, partner and co-founder of CIRP. "Now, Apple and Google need to figure out how to sell products and services to these loyal customer bases."
While Apple enjoyed record revenue in November due to growth in services such as Apple Music, Apple Pay, iCloud, AppleCare and App Store, much of Android's brand loyalty could be attributed to a customer's ability to switch to different styles of phones without having to leave the operating system.
"We know Android has a larger base of users than iOS, and because of that larger base, the absolute number of users that switch to iOS from Android is as large or larger than the absolute number of users that switch to Android from iOS," said Levin. "Looking at absolute number of users in this way tends to support claims that iOS gains more former Android users, than Android does former iOS users."
Samsung is looking to keep its customer base loyal to Android with the upcoming launch of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+. The new phones will feature Samsung's "most elaborate camera ever," as well as Bixby, Samsung's intelligence platform.

TOKYO (REUTERS) - Princess Mako, the eldest granddaughter of Japanese Emperor Akihito, will wed a former classmate, the Imperial Household said on Sunday (Sept 3 ), confirming a marriage that will further deplete the royal family since she must become a commoner.
The shrinking royal population, which mirrors the broader ageing of Japanese society, has raised concerns that the prince may also be the last.
A year ago, the first emperor not to be considered divine said in a rare public appearance that he feared age would make it hard to fulfil his duties. The 83-year-old has had heart surgery and been treated for prostate cancer.
