Hong Kong recorded a new imported case of chikungunya fever on Friday, bringing the total to nine patients with the mosquito-borne disease.
A Centre for Health Protection spokesman said that the latest case involved a 23-year-old man who had travelled to Foshan in Guangdong province on August 1.
“He is now in a stable condition. His blood sample tested positive for the chikungunya fever virus upon laboratory testing,” the spokesman said on Friday evening.
The man lives in a University of Science and Technology dormitory.
The spokesman said the man had been bitten by mosquitoes during his stay in Foshan and had developed a fever, joint pain and rashes five days after his return on August 3.

Guangdong has recorded more than 8,000 new cases of chikungunya fever over the past three weeks, mostly in Foshan.
OpenAI pivots to enterprise with GPT-5, providing faster setup and cost-effective AI for startups.
Box, Vercel, and Factory adopt GPT-5, citing improved coding and complex task management.
GPT-5 pricing undercuts competitors, aiming to capture market share from Anthropic’s Claude models.
Enterprise adoption drives AI market growth, with OpenAI expanding sales teams globally.
OpenAI is accelerating its enterprise strategy with the rollout of GPT-5, targeting startups and established businesses seeking faster, more affordable AI solutions.
While the model faced initial criticism, OpenAI reinstated GPT-4 access for paid subscribers, highlighting its commitment to user flexibility.
Startups such as Cursor, Vercel, and Factory have already integrated GPT-5 as the default model for coding and planning tasks, citing its faster setup and lower operational costs. Box, a leading cloud content management firm, reported notable improvements in document analysis and complex workflow handling using GPT-5. Other tech companies, including Qodo and JetBrains, echoed similar praise for the model’s capabilities.
Faster, Smarter, Cheaper
The visual impact of GPT-5 adoption extends beyond efficiency gains. Startups leveraging the model are able to streamline operations and accelerate development timelines.
OpenAI has made GPT-5 accessible through both Microsoft Azure and its proprietary API, ensuring enterprises can integrate AI tools with existing infrastructure.
This dual-access strategy positions OpenAI as a flexible partner for businesses of all sizes, from startups to large enterprises.
Startups Lead GPT-5 Adoption
The shift toward enterprise represents a strategic departure from OpenAI’s historically consumer-focused approach.
Currently, ChatGPT Plus subscriptions account for 80% of OpenAI’s revenue, in contrast to competitors like Anthropic, which derive most of their earnings from enterprise API usage. Analysts suggest that focusing on enterprise adoption offers more sustainable revenue streams and broader growth potential.
Market projections reinforce this trend. The generative AI sector is expected to expand from $10.9 billion in 2023 to $42.6 billion by 2028, with enterprise clients driving much of this growth. OpenAI’s pricing strategy for GPT-5—significantly cheaper than Anthropic’s Claude models, indicates a deliberate move to capture enterprise market share even at the cost of short-term margins.
Market Moves and Strategy
Enterprise clients represent both an opportunity and a risk for AI providers. Anthropic’s revenue, heavily concentrated among just two major customers, illustrates the vulnerability of relying on a narrow client base.
GPT-5’s competitive pricing offers enterprises a cost-efficient alternative, creating a potential shift in the AI-powered coding market.
Historically, losing a single large client in enterprise software can drastically impact growth, highlighting OpenAI’s advantage in diversifying its customer base early.
OpenAI Expands Access Globally
OpenAI’s expanded enterprise sales team, combined with aggressive market positioning, signals a decisive push into the business segment.
As startups and established companies increasingly adopt GPT-5 for coding, planning, and complex task management, the AI landscape is poised for a new phase of competition and innovation.
With GPT-5, OpenAI aims to balance cutting-edge AI performance with affordability, ensuring enterprises gain both speed and cost efficiency. The model’s uptake among startups and tech companies demonstrates its growing influence, potentially reshaping how businesses deploy AI in the coming years.
As a player at Bournemouth and Portsmouth Eddie Howe could invariably be found reading the foreign news pages of the then broadsheets while travelling to matches on the team bus.
More than two decades on, the Newcastle manager’s ability to construct carefully worded, supremely diplomatic, sentences loaded with cleverly calibrated between-the-lines subtext make it easy to imagine him as some sort of international envoy.
In an alternative life Howe could, perhaps, have currently been shuttling between Cairo, Doha, Jerusalem and Washington DC conducting delicate Middle East peace talks. Friday might have had him on stand by to fly to Anchorage or Kyiv for a role in Russia-Ukraine ceasefire negotiations.
This skill set dictates that few Premier League counterparts can be better equipped to confront a problem such as Alexander Isak. Yet, behind a resolutely brave face, even Newcastle’s manager acknowledges, albeit tacitly, that he has lost control of the situation.
The Sweden striker is so keen to force through a move to Liverpool that he has in effect gone on strike. After resisting overtures to be reintegrated with Howe’s squad, Isak continues to train alone and, it is understood, will shortly be fined the maximum permissible two weeks’ wages for making himself unavailable for Saturday’s season opener at Aston Villa.
“I’ve said many times I want Alex to train and play,” said Howe as he faced the media on Friday. “I’ve had those conversations with him.” Pressed on whether Isak could rejoin the squad before the end of this month, he shrugged. “I don’t know,” he said. “Alex will control that.”
So how did it comes to this? Isak, disgruntled at not receiving the pay rise he believed he had been promised during the summer of 2024, left plenty of clues about his mindset last season. In an insightful BBC interview with Alan Shearer last winter and a group media appearance before the Carabao Cup final the 25-year-old was non-committal, to say the least, about his future.
It would be inconceivable to think a manager as emotionally tuned-in as Howe would not have second-guessed his leading scorer’s disillusion. In perhaps the most revealing moment of Friday’s press conference he was asked whether, when Newcastle sealed Champions League qualification in May, he was confident of Isak fulfilling the three remaining years on his contract.
“I was not thinking of any individual in that moment, so I can’t really give an answer on that,” he said, carefully. Then came a query as to why Newcastle had acted as if blind to Isak’s unhappiness and potential for disruptive behaviour in June. Had they placed the striker on the market then, an auction would surely have unfolded. At that time there would also have been more alternative attacking options for the board to pursue. “I understand why you might think that,” said Howe. “But no situation is ever as simple as it seems on the outside.”

It begs the question as to whether he had embraced reality while Newcastle’s Saudi Arabian owners remained in denial and believed they could keep Isak for at least another year. Technically they can, of course, but unhappy players do not make for harmonious, let alone winning, teams.
Howe said of Isak’s behaviour in, among other things, skipping the preseason tour of Singapore and South Korea: “I don’t think it has been healthy for us. I don’t deny that’s been a big challenge. Alex, for me, is one of the best strikers in the world, if not the best. To miss him from your squad leaves a huge gap.
“Morale was certainly affected early on during preseason. It was a difficult period for us. There was nothing I could do to affect that. When you have a player that good who is not part of your group it’s difficult for the other players to fully understand it and to know how to react.
“But there’s been an acceptance that we have to make the best of the situation; the atmosphere within the group has been very good in the last couple of weeks. I can’t look you in the eye and say it’s brought us closer together but, sometimes, these things can unify you in a way you didn’t know possible.”
For all Isak’s uniquely rich attacking talent the road to reintegration is perilous. “I don’t think you can achieve anything with a squad that’s not totally united and keen to represent the club,” said Howe, pointedly. “In order for any player to play well you have to be in that mental place where you want to play. The league’s so hard that, if you’re not there, the games can become very difficult, very quickly.”
The problem is that unless Liverpool make an offer somewhere nearer Newcastle’s £150 million (€174 million) valuation of Isak than the £110 million (€127 million) they have had rejected, the Saudis are unlikely to sanction a sale.
Moreover, Liverpool are not expected to bid again until Newcastle sign at least one replacement. A deal for Brentford’s Congolese striker Yoane Wissa is close but, for the moment, Howe is without a specialist striker. He will field a winger, Anthony Gordon, out of position at centre-forward against Villa.
“Alex’s situation’s not in my hands,” he said before turning typically diplomatic. “But I’ll go with whatever hand I’m dealt.” – Guardian
Researchers in the US have compiled the largest-ever dataset of high-frequency radio signals from lightning to investigate how a bolt’s altitude within a cloud influences how its energy radiates.
The research, carried out by scientists at New Mexico’s Los Alamos National Laboratory, showed that the strength difference between two very high-frequency radio pulses in lightning is closely related to the altitude of the lightning in the cloud.
The team reportedly harnessed machine learning and satellite technology to shed light on a decades-old question about the energy radiation of lightning, which is considered one of nature’s most powerful forces.
According to the laboratory, the findings offer valuable insight into the processes behind lightning initiation in a particularly powerful kind of in-cloud lightning.
Behind the study
For the research, the team collected the largest dataset of trans-ionospheric pulse pairs (TIPPs), which are considered the most powerful natural radio signals on the planet that are generated by lightning.
A radio frequency sensor they developed observed more than 76,000 TIPPs, matching them to lightning detected from the ground aboard a satellite in geostationary orbit. This is the circular path 22,236 miles above the equator, where a satellite moves with Earth’s rotation and stays over the same spot.
“An estimated 95 percent of the lightning events detected by radio frequency sensors are TIPPs, while the rest are cloud-to-ground lightning discharges,” the lab explained.
Erin Lay, PhD, a research scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory and lead author of the study, explained that scientists have long known the first pulse of a TIPP is caused by the lightning signal traveling through the ionosphere and reaching the satellite directly.
The second pulse occurs when the signal reflects off the Earth’s surface before reaching the satellite. “Sometimes this second pulse is stronger than the first, but we didn’t know why.”
The study explained that the difference is a result of the lightning’s altitude within the cloud and its elevation angle relative to the satellite.
Mapping lightning with precision
The researchers further emphasized that the experiments provided additional evidence that TIPPs are the space-based signature of compact intracloud discharges. These discharges are a particularly fast and short-lived form of lightning inside the cloud.
“Our measurements could lead to even more accurate measurements of how high the convective regions of clouds are, which can help them verify their data,” Lay elaborated in a press release.
She emphasized that a sudden jump in the altitude of TIPPs could indicate rapid changes in the storm’s convection, helping researchers better interpret cloud dynamics.
The team now hopes the new, extensive database of 76,000 TIPPs will add greater specificity to Global Lightning Mapper (GLM) data. This could, in turn, help refine satellite-based observations and enhance our understanding of storm behavior.
Lay stated that the GLM instruments aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) GOES-R satellites and the co-located Advanced Baseline Imager provide researchers with an estimate of cloud height.
The paper, ” Statistical Analysis of Trans-Ionospheric Pulse Pairs and Inferences on Their Characteristics, ” has been published in the Journal of Geophysical Research.

Steve Smith has issued a stern warning to England ahead of the crucial Ashes series in November, saying that the Australia tour will be a tougher challenge for the Three Lions. Smith lauded England for a good series against India, where they won two Tests and drew the series, but added that the conditions Down Under will be much trickier, and against a quality pace attack, it won’t be easy.
“Their series against India was one of the best I’ve seen in years. They play aggressive cricket, but batting in Australia will be a big challenge. Our wickets have been tricky, and we’ve got an experienced, successful bowling attack,” Smith told Sky Sports in an interview.
When Did England Last Win The Ashes In Australia?
England last won the Ashes in Australia in 2010-11, winning the series 3-1, courtesy of 766 runs by Alastair Cook and James Anderson’s 24 wickets. The team, however, has not won a Test in Australia since then, struggling against a top-notch bowling attack in hostile conditions.
Steve Smith Lauds Joe Root
Smith also lauded Joe Root for his brilliant run in Tests of late. Root scored 537 runs against India in the recently concluded series, and Smith was wary of the threat he brings to the table. Root has not scored a century in Australia, and Smith hopes the bowlers will ensure he doesn’t reach the three-figure mark in the Ashes this year.

“He’s been outstanding the past two years, turning 50s into big hundreds. He hasn’t scored a Test hundred in Australia yet — I’m sure he’ll be aiming for it, but hopefully he doesn’t get it this summer.
“We’ll just let our skills do the talking. We know our conditions well and trust our game,” Smith added.
First there was mall goth. Then beach goth. Now, allow Jenna Ortega to introduce boho goth.
The Wednesday cast took their season 2 promotional duties down under, touching down in Sydney, Australia, where not even a trip to Bondi Beach could keep Ortega from her black leather. Yesterday, however, she and her stylist, Enrique Melendez, took a different approach.

Ortega added more dimension to her gothic sartorial universe for a so-called “Outcast Assembly” on Cockatoo Island, alongside castmates Emma Meyers and Gwendoline Christie, and executive producer Tim Burton. Over a black midi dress embellished with lace, she wore an enormous, black and white faux fur coat from Valentino’s resort 2026 collection. But Ortega traded in Alessandro Michele’s green lace tights and leather beret for something a bit more…Wednesday.

En route to Cockatoo Island, she toted a black Valentino Garavani Panthea, a leather patchwork bag with chunky gold chain handles and a silver stud-embellished shoulder strap. She also rewore a pair of knee-high lace-up Miista boots (which she donned for a Wednesday screening in New York earlier this month) outfitted with a square toe and angular wedge heel. (Perhaps her greatest accessory of all? The pair of wired headphones that nearly got lost in the jumble of faux fur.)
While she’s offered us no shortage of Wednesday Addams-inspired looks, dressed in an eclectic mix of lace, faux fur, and statement boots, Jenna Ortega could just as easily play the part of Penny Lane’s goth cousin.

The Honor Magic V Flip 2 is going to be announced in a few days, and the company is hyping up the crowd with a post on Weibo, praising the device’s durable UTG display. Moreover, Honor posted another teaser confirming the impressive battery and charging specs.
Honor Magic V Flip 2 teaser posters
The post briefly goes through the new display tech called UTG (Ultra Thin Glass) used for flexible OLED panels. However, if you’ve been around in the smartphone industry for the last few years, you’d know that this isn’t exactly new tech. One of the first Samsung foldables featured UTG, and it’s unclear from Honor’s post alone what’s different in the Magic V Flip 2.
In any case, the teaser claims that the new display can withstand 350,000 folds, or in other words, at least 5 years of normal use. Even after the 350,000 folds test, the panel’s crease was no bigger than 50µm.
A leak from yesterday suggests the V Flip 2 will bring a solid 200MP + 50MP camera setup along with a whopping 5,500 mAh battery and 80W fast wired charging. The teaser today confirms the big battery and the speedy wired charging, but also adds 50W fast wireless charging to the specs sheet.
