With demand for online game surging during the pandemic, Las Vegas-based Scientific Games had earlier announced a plan to divest its lottery and sports-betting businesses to focus on gaming and digital content provider.

As for those pesky flying insects, disease-carrying mosquitoes could be sticking around longer, as climate change keeps bumping up temperatures. Primary public health risks: Rising frequency and intensity of hurricanes could lead to heightened levels of injury and death in the state. Heatstroke and extreme dehydration are also risks for vulnerable populations, as dangerously hot days will increase from 25 to 130 by 2050. Florida is home to 10 of the hottest US cities. And hurricanes create their ideal breeding conditions, lengthening mosquito season into the winter.

Hurricane Ida's severity was worsened by climate change, and experts expect these storms to continue to become more severe. Recent impact: In Mississippi, Hurricane Ida was so strong that it forced the Mississippi River to reverse its flow.

JKO is seeking access to due diligence information in order to explore the terms of a potential takeover offer, Britain's Playtech said in a statement, the latest in a series of takeover interest for the firm.

The deal will consist of $5.825 billion in cash and an additional payment of up to $225 million based on achievement of certain profitability goals in 2022 and 2023.
It is expected to close in the second quarter of next year, Scientific Games said.

Oct 27 (Reuters) - Scientific Games Corp, a U.S.
maker of daftar situs slot online machines, said on Wednesday that Canadian investment company Brookfield Business Partners, will buy its lottery business for $6.05 billion.

Drought and hotter temperatures are resulting in tree death, which exacerbates the wildfire crisis in the West. Days with high wildfire potential are expected to increase to nearly 150 days per year by 2050 (compared to approximately 120 days today). Recent impact: Wildfires continue to rise dramatically.

Other key risks: States along the Mississippi River (dominated by river flooding and earthquake risk), are where some of the country's highest-risk homes are located. And according to the National Weather Service, Mississippi had the most tornadoes last year despite the fact it's not a "Tornado Alley" state, seeing 127 twisters touch down and 12 people die as a result. Flooding threatens personal property across the state as an additional 13,000 residents -- adding to the 75,000 at risk today -- could be affected by rising seas, torrential rains and hurricanes, according to Climate Central's data.

Nov 17 (Reuters) - Online gambling software developer Playtech Plc said it had received a takeover approach from JKO Play Limited, a company controlled by former F1 boss Eddie Jordan and Keith O'Loughlin, a former executive at U.S.

JKO had indicated to Playtech it was in discussions with New York-based Centerbridge Partners L.P.
to provide institutional debt and structured capital funding, Playtech said, adding that Centerbridge had not yet made any financing commitments.

Today, about 840,000 Texans are already especially vulnerable to heatstroke, exhaustion and dehydration. Dangerous heat days will increase from 60 to 115 per year by 2050 according to Climate Central's data. Texas is home to nine of the hottest cities in the US, with McAllen taking second slot as the hottest city in the US after Miami. Primary public health risks: Already-hot Texas is getting even hotter. Stronger Atlantic hurricanes also elevate the risk of injury and death in the state.

Millions remained without power for some time, exacerbating the extreme chill that Texas was unprepared for. The economic impact of the winter freeze is estimated to have topped $130 billion, according to AccuWeather data, since the storm destroyed crops, caused power outages, disrupted the water supply and burst pipes. This outlier winter storm in usually-hot Texas was linked to the rapid Arctic warming.  Recent impact: Texas faced a severe winter storm in 2021 that resulted in the death of dozens.



Tinder-dry conditions and extreme heat also puts 57% of the state at a higher risk of wildfires, which come with the same public health risks as California (above). Primary public health risks: Hotter weather means more mosquito days, increasing risk of Zika across the state, according to Climate Central's data. Dangerous heat days are projected to increase from 30 to more than 111 per year by 2050, elevating the risk of heatstroke and dehydration, especially among the 120,000 in the most vulnerable communities.



The state is also getting hotter, with a projection of nearly 115 hot days by 2050, and New Orleans is the 15th hottest city in the country. Primary public health risks: Residents of Louisiana will be among the highest risk for coastal flooding in the US -- with more than 1.2 million projected to be in danger by 2050. Hotter weather means an increase in mosquito days, accelerating Zika risk across the state, according to Climate Central's data. Summer drought levels are expected to double by 2050 as well, creating risk of heatstroke and situs judi slot online resmi dehydration, as well as threatening food, energy and water production.
