Quick Glance: Prince Harry Officially Residing in U.S.

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have considered California home, and now his official residency in the U.S. has been documented in a corporate filing.

The document was filed at Britain’s corporate registrar, Companies House, to update the official residency of the British royal for business records of Travalyst Limited.

There had been little official confirmation of Harry’s residency status until this week, with an entry indicating a change of residency to June 29, 2023, the day the couple left Frogmore Cottage, their British home.

It is unclear what type of U.S. visa or residency permit Harry holds, despite efforts by conservative activists in the U.S. to ascertain them, including an ongoing lawsuit.

Quick Glance: Disneyland performers seek unionization

Performers who assist in bringing Disney's popular characters to life in the Southern California theme parks filed a petition on Wednesday to form a labor union.

The workers, including parade performers, character actors, and support staff at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, requested The Walt Disney Co. to recognize the union they are calling "Magic United."

A significant portion of the over 35,000 workers at the Disneyland Resort, which includes the theme parks, are already unionized. Parade and character workers announced their plans to unionize in February under the Actors' Equity Association.

Union membership in the U.S. has been declining for decades, but organizations have seen growing public support in recent years. The NLRB, which protects workers' rights, reported over 2,500 filings for union representation in the 2023 fiscal year, the highest number in eight years.

Quick Glance: Google Pixel 9: Enhanced On-Device AI vs iPhone 16

With an array of AI features in the Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, expectations were high for the Google Pixel 9.

The AI Core component of Android hints that the Google Pixel 9 could handle text-to-image generation, text rewriting, and Q&A conversations locally on the device.

The development of on-device AI capabilities is expected in other smartphones as well, but requires powerful processors to efficiently handle these tasks.

Apple is likely to prioritize on-device AI to meet privacy requirements, potentially giving the iPhone 16 a competitive advantage over Android devices.

California Man Gets 9 Years in Firebombing of Planned Parenthood Clinic: The clinic, which provided abortion, birth control and other health services in Costa ...

nytimes.com/2024/04/16/us/planned-parenthood-firebomber-sentenced.html

Quick Glance: Former Marine sentenced to 9 years in prison for firebombing California Planned Parenthood clinic

A former marine was sentenced to nine years in prison by the Justice Department on Monday after using a Molotov cocktail to attack a Planned Parenthood clinic in Costa Mesa, California. Chance Brannon, along with his co-defendant Tibet Ergul, plotted attacks on the clinic and a potential target on the power grid in 'furtherance of a race war.'

Brannon, 24, pleaded guilty in November 2023 to being involved in a conspiracy, malicious destruction of property by fire and explosives, possession of an unregistered destructive device, and intentionally damaging a reproductive health services facility in violation of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act.

Planned Parenthood clinic attacks were abandoned due to law enforcement actions. Brannon was motivated by neo-Nazi ideology and planned further violent attacks. The National Abortion Federation reported a sharp increase in violence at abortion clinics in 2022.

Brannon and Ergul also had plans to conduct an attack using a remote-detonated device during an LGBTQ+ pride event at Dodger Stadium, but were arrested two days prior. Before the arrest, Brannon even planned to rob Jewish individuals living in the Hollywood Hills.

Quick Glance: Samsung Takes Smartphone Crown from Apple

Apple loses top position in the global smartphone market to Samsung as Chinese competitors gain traction.

Samsung regains its status as the world's largest smartphone manufacturer in the first quarter of 2024, just three months after Apple claimed the top spot.

The market's strongest growth comes from two Chinese manufacturers, while Apple continues to face challenges in the world's largest smartphone market.

Despite an overall increase in global smartphone shipments, Apple experiences a decline in iPhone sales in China and misses out on much of the broader industry recovery.
