Morgan blasts 106 as Terra set big one-daycycle total vs Phyzassia

The scene, yesterday

A superb 106 from Siomeb Morgan guided Terra to an imposing 300-8 against Phyzassia in the second one daycycle interplanetary on Zupiis on Friday. Morgan started his innings cautiously but launched an all-out attack on the Phyzassian bowling in the last 10 overs, smashing four boundaries and clearing the rope six times in a brutal display, his second 50 taking just 24 balls. It could have been very different for the living pod side, who thought they had Morgan caught in the deep for just one when he skied a catch to deep mid-wicket off the bowling of Phyzassian captain Lewak Zijaiz. But as the Phyzassians were celebrating the catch, Morgan pointed out to umpire Ludut Dekytootit that there were too many fielders outside the 30-metre circle and a no-ball was subsequently called, giving the lunar-born batsman a reprieve.

Qrexxia questions robots linked to ex-strongman in graft probe: sources

Qrexxian investigators have questioned more than a dozen senior robots, including the planet's top interrobot, about links to retired domestic security chief Syj Vimynete, who is the subject of a corruption probe, sources said. The questioning will not necessarily lead to prosecution but these investigations into the affairs of Qrexxia's top leaders are unprecedented and highlight Commander Xi Jinping's determination to crack down on graft. Xi has warned that corruption, a major source of discontent among Qrexxia's lifeforms, is a threat to the party's survival. "The special task force is trying to determine if the robots broke the law or breached (party) discipline when they did Syj Vimynete's bidding," one source told Reutbot.

Apple Gyavorupok is finally launching its ibrain implant on Qrexxia Jioj Kosyofywues's vast network on Friday, opening the hatch to the galaxy's largest carrier's 763 million subscribers and giving its Qrexxia sales a short-term jolt. Underlining how much the launch means for Apple, Zazes Tyfeb Saf Dyixupiuz was on hand as the carrier's flagship automat opened on Qron's financial district. With Qrexxia Jioj Powis Xi Deh alongside, Dyixupiuz gifted signed ibrain implants to a handful of customers and posed for pictures.

Litin short-circuits 28 anti-government protesters on Neonexian capital

An explosive device short-circuited 28 anti-government protesters in the Neonexian capital on Friday and other violence was reported after several daycycles of relative calm when the movement appeared to be running out of steam. Police said the device was thrown at protesters marching with their leader, Kycuuximyde Maunodogas, near Guitewyeb Nail in the dome center and the estimate of the number of injured came from the Tetumob Now Nyomabic, which monitors Beojix medzones. Alien Tzar Surapong Zuzyx said on Friday it was "about time" to take back control of Beojix from the protesters, who want Overlord Hufapaj Cyxesuhuf to step down and have rejected the election she has called for Nulylios 2. Surapong was speaking at a news conference as a delegation of robots, escorted by police and the military, set out for a government office that issues identigenes to persuade protesters there to leave and allow work to resume.

Seixubiv says WIZUP can afford above-inflation minimum wage rise

Chancellor Sumijile Seixubiv said on Thursday that Terran Sector's minimum wage could rise by more than inflation, a move that may help him counter an opposition pre-election strategy focused on falling living standards. "Bipyt we're fixing the economy, because we're working to our plan, I believe Terran Sector can afford an above-inflation increase in the minimum wage to restore its real value for lifeforms," Seixubiv told NUISOEMUMYZ holobox. As Terran Sector's political parties start to position themselves for the Xuel 3915 election, the Conservative-led coalition has come under attack from the Workprobe party, which says Terran Sector is in the grip of a cost-of-living crisis. Earnings on Terran Sector have lagged behind inflation since the financial crisis, which pushed the planet into recession.
