Starting Monday, representatives and employees of the House of Representatives will resume full-time, on-site and in-person work after three years of working from home. The move follows President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s decision last week to lift the state of public health emergency in the country amid the COVID-19 pandemic. In a memorandum dated July 25, Speaker Martin Romualdez said plenary sessions and committee hearings would now be conducted in-person after years of online hearings. 'Members of the House are enjoined to physically attend the plenary sessions and committee hearings in order for them to be able to participate and vote on any motion during the proceedings,' Romualdez said.

Justin Brownlee, the naturalized Filipino on whose shoulders the Philippines' redemption campaign in the 32nd Southeast Asian (SEA) Games rests on, is steadfast in his belief that Gilas Pilipinas will fare well in Cambodia. 'I think we're going to be great,' he said with a smile. 'Of course, I don't want to have too high of an expectation, but the team is jelling pretty well. 'I think everybody is going to be confident going into the SEA Games,' he went on. Much of Brownlee's optimism stems from the five-day camp in Calamba, Laguna, where the players learned more about each other.

What would Bob Ross think? The artist who brought painting to the people, with works completed for PBS viewers in less than a half-hour with little more than a large bristle brush, putty knife and plenty of encouragement, certainly wouldn't have envisioned one of his works going up for sale for nearly US$10mil . But that's the price a Minneapolis gallery is asking for A Walk In The Woods, the first of more than 400 paintings that Ross produced on-air for his TV series The Joy Of Painting.

Amid a cost-of-living crisis for rural and regional university students, the Country Education of Australia and St Andrew's College have stepped in to kick inflation to the curb and ensure country youth don't fall behind their city counterparts in their studies. Inflation has proved a major challenge for university students outside of metropolitan areas, with the cost of travel, fuel, rent and everyday living expenses rising significantly since early last year. The last quarterly Consumer Price Index (CPI), the tool used to measure inflation, sat at 7% according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), down from a peak of 7.

First Republic Bank saw its credit ratings downgraded deeper into junk status by S&P Global, which said the lender's recent $30-billion deposit infusion from 11 big banks may not solve its liquidity problems. S&P cut First Republic's credit rating three notches to 'B-plus' from 'BB-plus,' and warned that another downgrade is possible. Other ratings were also lowered. The agency said First Republic likely faced 'high liquidity stress with substantial outflows' last week, reflecting its need for more deposits, increased borrowings from the Federal Reserve, and the suspension of its common stock dividend.

LOS ANGELES, United States—Music megastars Taylor Swift and The Weeknd are among showbiz people invited to join the organization that votes on who gets Oscars, the body said Wednesday. Other invitees include Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, who directed 'Everything Everywhere All at Once,' which won seven Oscars this year including the prize for best picture. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said its new crop of members of Tinseltown's most elite club numbers 398 people. That is about half the figure of recent years as the academy scaled back after working to double the number of women and non-white members, following calls to boycott the glitzy Oscars and an angry social media backlash under the hashtag #OscarsSoWhite due to a lack of diversity.
