San Marcos traveled to Hutto Memorial Stadium for their first match up of the 2023 football season against the Hippos. The Rattlers fell 66-35 to Hutto in a shootout that passed the century mark in overall scoring. In what became an offensive showcase for Hutto senior quarterback and Texas Tech commit Will Hammond, the Hippo offense moved at will throughout the first half. Hutto did incur a handful of self-enforced penalties that propelled a 92-yard San Marcos touchdown drive ending in an 8-yard score from senior running back Stefan Stennett — but the Hippos were able to respond every drive.

Each year the average Australian wastes a whopping 300 kilograms of food. That works out to the average household spending at least $2,000 on food that ends up in the bin. It's hurting our hip pockets and Australia's - food waste costs our nation $36 billion a year, with households contributing to about half that cost. So what is being done about this problem? There is a goal to halve food waste by 2030, a goal being driven by Stop Food Waste Australia. This is a powerful partnership of organisations along the farm-to-fork food supply chain and includes the National Farmers' Federation, all tiers of government and organisations like Food Bank.

Democrats in Minnesota and Michigan who won full control of their state government have used their new power to enact sweeping policy changes that have been stalled for years. Michigan and Minnesota Democrats won full control of their state governments last year and have already been able to pass gun safety packages, expanded voting rights, free meals for all students, and increased protections for abortion rights and LGBTQ+ people. The swift legislative action is being viewed as a potential roadmap for other states who may soon gain similar power.

For agriculture stakeholders, the hope that the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) provided for agriculture transformation is turning into despair—and even anger. During the May 9 'Bantay RCEP, Buy Pilipino' assembly initiated by the 131 organizations that signed a Jan. 31 document opposing RCEP, two constructive advocacies were discussed. The first, Bantay RCEP, was to determine how the implementation of the trade deal could be monitored so that conditionalities in favor of agriculture would result in protection of the sector.

KLANG: Former Klang member of Parliament Charles Santiago said Pas' actions of late have been creating fear among non-Malays. The season DAP politician quoted the recent incident in the east coast state of Kelantan in late June where a Chinese woman was issued a compound by the Kota Baru Municipal Council (MPKB) for wearing shorts in public. "If Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (Pas) has not created fear amongst non-Malays, it wouldn't need to come up with such statements in the first place. How do you explain compounding a Chinese woman for wearing shorts in public?" Santiago questioned.
