The findings in Tip of the Iceberg: Measuring unemployment in Australia, shows that the national unemployment rate could be three times higher if definitions were updated to include people who are looking for work but currently classed as being 'not in the labour market'. The report challenges the RBA's prevailing narrative about record low unemployment and its insistence that the official jobless rate must rise to 4.5% to tame inflation. Key Findings: The 'shadow pool' of unemployed people who are not being included in the ABS's strict definition of unemployment could be more than three times the official number.

OHCHR said that at least 120,000 people across Myanmar and another 100,000 in Cambodia may be held in situations where they are forced to execute lucrative online scams - from illegal gambling to crypto fraud. Other States including Lao PDR, the Philippines and Thailand have also been identified as main countries of destination or transit. Victims, not criminals "People who are coerced into working in these scamming operations endure inhumane treatment while being forced to carry out crimes," said UN rights chief Volker Türk.

Rado's Captain Cook Ceramic Skeleton automatic watch with the R808 calibre.

But what you may not know is that these 'miracle drugs' can come with extreme side effects that have lifelong impacts. You also may not realize that 81% of Ozempic and Wegovy users are women – so even if you're not taking a GLP-1 agonist, you may know someone who is, and this is important for you to hear.  Ozepmic and Wegovy are produced by pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk and, within the last few years, have become FDA-approved in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity, respectively.

The Biden administration plans to send Mexico an 'act now or else' message in coming weeks in an attempt to break a stalemate in an energy trade dispute as bipartisan calls grow for the U.S. to get tougher with its southern neighbor, according to people familiar with the discussions. The move would represent a significant escalation in already-strained tensions between U.S. President Joe Biden and his Mexican counterpart, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. Obrador's decision to roll back reforms aimed at opening Mexico's power and oil markets to outside competitors sparked the trade dispute.

Many cities are turning to speed limiters for electric scooters to address concerns about rider safety and conflicts with pedestrians. But mandating low travel speeds may mean more e-scooters on the sidewalks, a new study from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety suggests. 'Our results show that restricting scooters to low speeds offers a trade-off,' said Jessica Cicchino, IIHS vice president of research and the study's lead author. 'At slow speeds, riders are more likely to choose the sidewalk over the road.
