Corsairs move to 5-1, Ed Boyle Invitational semifinals with win over American RiverThe Sony Bravia X90L is on sale at both Amazon and Best Buy for Cyber Monday, with the 55-inch model starting at $898, or 25% off. The steepest discount is on the 98-inch model, which has had its price tag slashed by $3,000, going from $7,999 to $4,998, or 38% off. For most people, I'd recommend the 65-inch Sony X90L -- which is on sale for $999, an all-time low price for Cyber Monday. Also: The best Black Friday deals still live What the Sony Bravia X90L lacks in eye-popping specs, it more than makes up for in real-world picture performance and Sony upscaling technology, which delivers great video for movies, sports, cable, and streaming. Regarding the features you'll love for daily use, the X90L has an excellent remote that feels premium, is just the right size, includes backlighting, and has a good balance of just the right number of buttons. The X90L also has Google TV built-in. The closest rivals to the Bravia X90L are the TCL QM8 and the Hisense U8 Series, both of which cost a little less than the Sony and have impressive specs. The Sony Bravia X90L is one of our picks for the best Sony TVs you can buy , and for good reason. Its color accuracy, precision brightness, 120Hz smooth motion, and 4K image processing make it one of our most recommended TVs you can buy. I also consider it one of the most underrated TVs available. And with the 2024 TVs now hitting the market, you can save on just about every size of this excellent 2023 model, from $100 off the 65-inch to $3,000 off the 98-inch . I've seen all of the best 2024 TVs from Sony, Samsung LG, TCL, and Hisense, both at CES 2024 and at several events since then. When I recently had to replace a 7-year-old 55-inch TCL TV that died, I chose a 65-inch Sony X90L because I think it has the best picture for the money right now, and it comes with a couple of extra advantages as well. Also: This LG OLED TV is my No. 1 pick for best picture quality, and it's $1,100 off for Cyber Monday While the Sony Bravia XR X90L doesn't blow you away on the spec sheet -- it's an LED TV with a full-array backlight -- the real-world performance and usability make it one of the best buys on the market, based on ZDNET's testing. This Sony TV is technically in the same category as its very popular 2023 rivals, the TCL QM8 and Hisense U8K . However, while those are Mini LED TVs and look like they should be better TVs on paper, the Sony X90L has better color accuracy, plenty of brightness, and a nicer remote than either the TCL or Hisense TVs (although the 2024 models are starting to emulate the Sony remote). All three TVs are around $1,000 -- $900 to $1,300 street price -- for a 65-inch, and the Sony is the best among the three. Since Sony has had a long partnership with Google, the X90L also has an excellent implementation of Google TV. This makes the X90L's software interface much friendlier to use than Samsung's Tizen and LG's webOS, which can be overly complicated and frustrating to navigate. With the X90L, you also get Sony's excellent picture processing to upscale content to 4K, which is especially helpful if you're watching older content or YouTube videos, and it's stronger than anything offered by Hisense and TCL. And if you're looking for a TV to watch movies, the X90L nearly rivals expensive OLED and high-end QLED TVs that cost almost twice as much. If you're upgrading from a TV that is at least 4-5 years old, you will be blown away by the picture quality of X90L -- and it will require a lot less tuning out-of-the-box than other TVs. Also: One of the best QLED TVs I've tested is not made by TCL or Samsung (and it's on sale) Sony has the most advanced picture processing of all five major TV brands. That means that it doesn't over-saturate and over-brighten the image the way Samsung, LG, TCL, and Hisense models sometimes do. Again, that means Sony TVs often have a better picture than higher-spec'd rivals from budget TV makers (Hisense and TCL) and can often compete with more expensive models from premium vendors (Samsung and LG). For gamers, this TV has a dedicated game mode, HDMI 2.1, VRR, and Auto HDR Tone Mapping when connected to the Sony PS5. It also has a game menu so that you can fine-tune the settings to your preferences. The Sony X90L isn't as bright as its Mini LED rivals from TCL and Hisense -- or even its 2024 successor, the Sony Bravia 7 -- but it still takes advantage of Sony's advanced backlight system to brighten specific parts of the image. It also does an excellent job of revealing the details in the shadows of dark movies and shows. I'm using the X90L in a bright room and have never had an instance where I wished the picture was brighter. Of course, Sony's products often carry a 10% to 20% price premium because of the Sony brand name, so it's important to look for sales and deals like the ones we've highlighted from Best Buy, Amazon, and others. If you have a little more to spend, I'd recommend upgrading to an OLED because the Sony A80L , the Samsung S90C and the LG C3 are all 2023 OLEDs you can pick up on sale. The cheapest among these is the C3 TV, which costs about $1,940. When will this deal expire?

Party leaders are banking on their governance record, including initiatives in healthcare, education, and public welfare, to secure a majority in the city’s 95 wards. District Secretary Paramveer Singh confirmed the party has conducted extensive surveys to select candidates in collaboration with local MLAs and district leadership. Campaigning is set to intensify, with Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann expected to lead the charge. “We are highlighting our achievements—better schools, healthcare through Mohalla Clinics, relief from electricity bills, and administrative reforms,” Singh said, expressing confidence in an AAP victory. Candidates gear up While the official list of candidates is pending, some hopefuls have already initiated door-to-door outreach and public meetings. AAP District (Urban) President Sharanpal Singh Makkar revealed that over 300 applications have been received from aspiring candidates. “We’ve provided detailed feedback to the high command after consulting MLAs and district teams. The momentum will only grow as nominations are filed,” he said. MLA Kulwant Singh Sidhu from Atam Nagar, which comprises 12 wards, echoed the party’s optimism. Sidhu cited public support garnered during recent by-polls and AAP’s focus on free power, clean drinking water, and free bus transport for women. “We aim to win all the wards in Ludhiana and secure the mayor’s position,” he said, adding that it is ultimately up to the voters to decide. Grassroots activity gains momentum Even before formal nominations, potential candidates in areas like Haibowal, BRS Nagar, and Rajguru Nagar have increased their visibility, reactivating local offices and engaging directly with residents. According to Makkar, these candidates have been working in their wards for over a year and are leveraging this groundwork for the elections. AAP leaders emphasized that having both state government backing and party-aligned councilors would lead to effective governance. “Previously, the councilors were from Congress, and work was not carried out properly. Now, with our councilors and state government, development will proceed efficiently,” Makkar said.

(The Center Square) – Eleven states, led by Texas, have sued the three largest institutional investors in the world for allegedly conspiring to buy coal company stocks to control the market, reduce competition and violate federal and state antitrust laws. The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Tyler Division and demands a trial by jury. It names as defendants BlackRock, Inc., State Street Corporation, and Vanguard Group, Inc., which combined manage more than $26 trillion in assets. The companies were sued for “acquiring substantial stockholdings in every significant publicly held coal producer in the United States” in order to gain “power to control the policies of the coal companies,” Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said. According to the 109-page brief , defendants own 30.43% of Peabody Energy, 34.19% of Arch Resources, 10.85% of NACCO Industries, 28.97% of CONSOL Energy, 29.7% of Alpha Metallurgical Resources, 24.94% of Vistra Energy, 8.3% of Hallador Energy, 31.62% of Warrior Met Coal and 32.87% of Black Hills Corporation. Under the Biden administration, in the past four years, “America’s coal producers have been responding not to the price signals of the free market, but to the commands of Larry Fink, BlackRock’s chairman and CEO, and his fellow asset managers,” the brief states. “As demand for the electricity Americans need to heat their homes and power their businesses has gone up, the supply of the coal used to generate that electricity has been artificially depressed – and the price has skyrocketed. Defendants have reaped the rewards of higher returns, higher fees, and higher profits, while American consumers have paid the price in higher utility bills and higher costs.” Consumer costs went up because the companies “weaponized” their shares to push through a so-called green energy agenda, including reducing coal output by more than half by 2030, the lawsuit alleges. In response, publicly traded coal producers reduced output and energy prices skyrocketed. The companies advanced their policies primarily through two programs, the Climate Action 100 and Net Zero Asset Managers Initiative, signaling “their mutual intent to reduce the output of thermal coal, which predictably increased the cost of electricity for Americans” nationwide, Paxton said. The firms also allegedly deceived thousands of investors “who elected to invest in non-ESG funds to maximize their profits,” Paxton said. “Yet these funds pursued ESG strategies notwithstanding the defendants’ representations to the contrary.” While they allegedly directly restrained competition among the companies whose shares they acquired, “their war on competition has consequences for the entire industry,” the brief states. “Texas will not tolerate the illegal weaponization of the financial industry in service of a destructive, politicized ‘environmental’ agenda. BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street formed a cartel to rig the coal market, artificially reduce the energy supply, and raise prices,” Paxton said. “Their conspiracy has harmed American energy production and hurt consumers. This is a stunning violation of state and federal law.” The lawsuit alleges the companies’ actions violated the Clayton Act, which prohibits any acquisition of stock where “the effect of such acquisition may be substantially to lessen competition;” and the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, 15 U.S.C. § 1 in a conspiracy to restrain trade. It also alleges the companies violated state antitrust laws of Texas, Montana and West Virginia; Blackrock also allegedly violated the Texas Business and Commerce Code by committing “false, deceptive, or misleading acts.” It asks the court to rule that the companies violated the federal and state statutes, provide injunctive and equitable relief and prohibit them from engaging in such acts. It requests that civil fines be paid, including requiring Blackrock to pay $10,000 per violation. Joining Paxton in the lawsuit are the attorneys general of Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, West Virginia and Wyoming. The Buzbee Law Firm and Cooper & Kirk are serving as outside counsel. The companies have yet to issue a statement on the lawsuit. The lawsuit follows one filed by 25 states led by Texas against the Biden administration asking the court to halt a federal ESG policy that could negatively impact the retirement savings of 152 million Americans. It also comes after Texas has listed hundreds of companies and publicly traded investment funds, including Blackrock, on its divestment list for advancing ESG and anti-oil and natural gas policies.
