The World Health Organization has added seven health conditions and exposures to its updated guidance on reducing the risk of cognitive decline and dementia, including stroke, head injuries, vision problems, sleep disorders, HIV, air pollution and menopausal hormone therapy. The second edition of the WHO’s guidelines, published on July 15, 2026, expands on its original 2019 advice and sets out recommendations covering 19 potentially modifiable risk factors. The organisation said the guidance reflected new evidence and was intended to support action “across the life course”. ([who.int](https://www.who.int/news/item/15-07-2026-new-who-guidelines–up-to-45–of-dementia-risk-could-be-prevented-or-delayed)) More than 57 million people worldwide are living with dementia, according to the WHO,…

Gateway Mining has reported a significant fresh-rock gold discovery at its Cowza prospect, 85km north-east of Wiluna in Western Australia, after the first reverse-circulation drilling into the newly identified system returned 41 metres grading 2.0 grams of gold per tonne. The intercept, from 104 metres below surface, included a higher-grade section of nine metres at 7.5 grams per tonne. Gateway said the result confirmed its interpretation of Cowza as a substantial primary gold system beneath a previously defined oxide zone.

Timothy Taylor’s has redesigned the logos on its Landlord, Boltmaker and Golden Best ales in a bid to make the historic Yorkshire brands more relevant to younger drinkers. The new artwork features bearded male figures and will appear on pump clips and beer-bottle labels. The refreshed designs have already prompted comparisons with the character used by Spanish-inspired lager brand Madrí Excepcional. Timothy Taylor’s, a family-owned brewery based in Keighley, West Yorkshire, said the change was intended to attract the next generation without altering the beers themselves. Andrew Carter, the brewery’s chief executive, said the refresh was not about changing its…

Justin and Hailey Bieber have prompted fresh speculation about their marriage after appearing to share an animated exchange at Finneas O’Connell and Claudia Sulewski’s wedding in Montecito. Footage from the ceremony at San Ysidro Ranch on Saturday, 29 August, appeared to show Hailey gesturing while speaking to her husband before the pair moved away from one another. The images, captured just weeks before the Biebers’ eighth wedding anniversary, quickly fuelled online claims that the couple had argued. However, there is no evidence from the footage alone that the exchange was a row. The celebrity tip account DeuxMoi said Justin and…

Issa Rae has cancelled the planned Insecure 10th-anniversary tour, including a scheduled appearance at MGM National Harbor in Maryland, after cast members’ work commitments created a scheduling clash. Rae, showrunner Prentice Penny and members of the main cast announced the decision in a video shared on social media on Tuesday, 1 September. “The tour ain’t happening, y’all. I’m so sorry,” Natasha Rothwell said in the clip. Penny said the group was “so bummed” to call off the dates, but added that the cast had begun working on new projects. Rae said the tour had only been planned on the basis…

Perth Glory have signed Lions FC centre-back Cher Deng on a two-year deal, making the 21-year-old defender their first recruit since Adam Taggart’s departure. Deng impressed against Glory in July, helping the NPL Queensland side knock the A-League club out of the Australia Cup. Lions have since continued their run in the competition and reached the semi-finals. The 1.94-metre defender has been a key figure in Lions’ dominant domestic campaign, with the club finishing eight points clear at the top of the NPL Queensland table. He also featured in Australia Cup victories over North Sunshine Eagles and Melbourne City, winning…

A Nevada couple accused of driving into a restricted US Department of Energy site with a handgun have said they took a wrong turn, despite allegedly passing signs warning that unauthorised entry and firearms were forbidden. Jessica Zamora, 26, and Treyvon Currie, 31, were stopped after travelling about 300 feet into the Nevada National Security Site in North Las Vegas on August 5, according to a federal criminal complaint. The complaint, based on evidence from FBI Special Agent Nick Baranishyn, alleges that the pair were in an unregistered Saturn sedan and had a Smith & Wesson semi-automatic pistol inside a…

Ed Markey has won the Massachusetts Democratic Senate primary, defeating 47-year-old Congressman Seth Moulton and overcoming a campaign centred on his age and the need for generational change. The victory on Tuesday, September 1, secures an expected third full term for Mr Markey, 80, who has represented Massachusetts in Congress since 1976. In the heavily Democratic state, he is the overwhelming favourite to win November’s general election and could remain in the Senate until at least the age of 86. Mr Moulton, a moderate Democrat and former Marine who represents the state’s North Shore, had argued that voters should replace…

The global bond sell-off intensified on Tuesday, 1 September, as Japan’s 10-year government bond yield reached 3% for the first time since 1996, driving borrowing costs higher across major economies. The move reflected renewed concern over energy-driven inflation, rising government debt and the prospect of tighter monetary policy. Falling bond prices push yields higher, increasing the cost of financing for governments, companies and households. Japan’s Ministry of Finance reported that a 10-year bond auction held on Tuesday produced a lowest accepted yield of 3.011%, with the weighted average yield just below the 3% mark at 2.995%. The rise in Japanese…
