On July 26, Taiwan will set a new record for a developed democracy, holding recall referendums for 24 opposition legislators as well as one opposition mayor. This is nothing to be proud of; the mass recalls of more than a fifth of Taiwan’s legislature are the latest sign of a political crisis that has largely gone unnoticed internationally. Since last year, vicious political fighting, sometimes literally, has erupted between the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and the opposition led by the Kuomintang (KMT).

The reigning Premier League champions did not deploy a centre-forward, with striker Hugo Ekitike – signed from Eintracht Frankfurt for an initial £69m – absent alongside Darwin Nunez, who scored a hat-trick inside nine minutes in a friendly against Stoke City last Sunday, and Colombia international Luis Diaz. “We came up with playing with two No10s and, in ball possession, that looked really good because of the whole team,” said Slot, speaking…

Three areas to watch have been designated in the eastern Pacific while long range models hint the Atlantic basin may be starting to awaken.Computer forecasts continue to indicate that a fairly robust disturbance will move off Africa about Monday.

Bratislava – Slovakia, along with Austria, is accumulating debt the fastest in the entire European Union (EU). In the first three months of this year, compared to the last quarter of last year, Slovakia’s public debt increased by 3.5% of gross domestic product (GDP) or more than 5 billion euros. Although Finance Minister Ladislav Kamenický (Smer-SD) says that consolidation may slow down the indebtedness of the Slovak Republic with the prospect of stopping it by the end of the current government’s term, all circumstances suggest that the debt spiral will continue to turn, the opposition KDH warned on Friday. The…
Earlier this week, I posed the following problem in price theory. The government imposes a binding price ceiling on oranges. But it does not impose any price ceiling on orange juice. After the price ceiling on oranges is imposed, what will happen to the price of orange juice? (Assume a competitive market for oranges.) Show your work. I said I would post my answer. I also said that I would post a diagram of demand and supply. But the diagram got complicated because there are both demand and supply for oranges and demand and supply for orange juice. And, of…

Neymar was seen confronting a fan in the stands in a heated exchange at the final…
