During this period, export revenues also reached a new record of $5.3bn, up around 9% on the year prior.

The report said that the agency had planned to complete the new digital system overseeing mail ballots…
In hindsight, the unfinished nature of “Ceilings” lent itself well to an overhaul. Not every pairing offers the same possibilities. Faye Webster discards the Police pastiche of “I Care” for a comfier, bossa nova-inflected pop-rock stroll. But the text is so garishly sarcastic that Webster—one of our finest working ironists—can’t quite finesse her way in. Julien Baker and Mustafa are similarly stranded by “Time Is Happening,” a downcast slab of pop-punk that they’ve reworked as a maudlin slowcore duet. No stranger to spinning lyrical straw into pop gold, superstar emeritus and ball-knower Elton John recorded “Seein’ Stars” as a duet,…
