Even before breaking ground on the resort in 2015, Imperial Pacific set up a temporary casino in a shopping mall. The next year, the FBI raided the offices of Imperial Pacific, the sitting Republican governor, Ralph Torres, and other businesses in Saipan, including a consultancy working for Imperial Pacific. In a presentation to the commonwealth’s government as part of his bid for the casino, Kaneko identified himself as the group’s chief executive officer. Imperial Pacific filed for bankruptcy in Saipan on April 19, 2024, and was delisted in Hong Kong a couple of months later. His company paid $12.95 million for the property and the casino license — effectively clearing Imperial Pacific of its $169 million in liabilities.

But in recent days, the situation has grown acute, with the Iranian rial’s value falling sharply, repeatedly reaching record lows. It was a rare instance in the history of Iran’s Islamic government, established in 1979, that protests had been sparked by the country’s “bazaari” merchant class. From the Sunday spark, the protests grew quickly in size and spread widely. And on Tuesday, videos showed that protests had spread to other major cities, including Kermanshah, Shiraz, Yazd and Isfahan. The guild representing Iranian truckers put out a statement in support of the bazaar protests but stopped short of announcing its own strike.

18th Istanbul Biennial to conclude after first phaseISTANBULThe 18th Istanbul Biennial, organized by the Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), will conclude after its first phase following curator Christine Tohmé’s decision to step down for personal reasons, bringing an end to the event’s planned three-year structure. The biennial’s first phase, titled “The Three-Legged Cat,” was held between Sept. 20 and Nov. 23, 2025, welcoming more than 600,000 visitors to exhibitions in eight venues in Istanbul. However, her departure from the project has made it impossible to proceed with this structure, and the 18th Istanbul Biennial will, therefore, be completed with its initial phase. Preparations for the 19th Istanbul Biennial, scheduled to take place in 2027, will begin in collaboration with an advisory board comprising Ahu Antmen, Lydia Gatundu Galavu, Gözde İlkin, Renan Laru-an and Sally Tallant. The curator of the next edition is expected to be announced in 2026.

But she remains in the Tom Brady/Michael Jordan category; a so-so last season doesn’t detract from a Hall of Fame record.

Global Positioning System has grown dramatically, threatening a network that is highly vulnerable to attack in a conflict. The U.S. Space Force operates 31 GPS satellites, which orbit Earth at 12,550 miles.

But as he drove along Interstate 95, it interfered with Newark Liberty International Airport’s GPS system, crippling one of the busiest airports in the country.
