He was soft-spoken, very intelligent, synthesized information very quickly and had very clear ideas of what he wanted to do. He did solicit input, but he usually had a pretty good idea of what is going on and what he wanted to do. He was very demanding. He was very data-driven. If you didn't have the facts, he probably did, and it was a situation where he would then he would view the information that he was soliciting, so you always had to be on your game when you were with President Carter." Some of those paying tribute worked for Carter, others had never met him but admired him and learned from him. "He's Georgia's own President, in the community they highly respect him, and he has done so much not for just like democratic politics, but also just like helping his community," said 22-year-old student James Stevens.

URBN shares traded higher on Wednesday following the release of the company’s third-quarter earnings report, which exceeded expectations. Here’s what you need to know. What To Know: Urban Outfitters reported third-quarter earnings per share of $1.10, beating estimates of 89 cents. Revenue came in at $1.36 billion, up 6.3% year-over-year and ahead of the consensus estimate of $1.32 billion. The company posted net income of $102.9 million for the quarter, compared to $83 million a year ago. Retail net sales rose 3.2%, with comparable retail sales up 1.5%. Anthropologie and Free People brands reported comparable sales growth of 5.8% and 5.3%, respectively, while Urban Outfitters brand sales fell 8.9%. See More: These Analysts Increase Their Forecasts On Urban Outfitters After Q3 Results Nuuly, the company's subscription rental service, grew sales by 48.4%, supported by a 51% increase in active subscribers. Wholesale revenue increased 17.4%, driven by a 20.3% rise in Free People wholesale sales, partially offset by declining Urban Outfitters wholesale revenue. Gross profit for the quarter rose 9.4% to $497.3 million, with a 105-basis-point improvement in gross margin due to higher merchandise markups and fewer markdowns at Urban Outfitters. Operating expenses increased 6.7%, reflecting higher marketing and store payroll costs. “These results were driven by outperformance across all three business segments – Retail, Subscription and Wholesale. Additionally, we’re optimistic about the outlook for Holiday demand and believe total comparable sales could be similar to our third quarter results,” said Richard Hayne , CEO of Urban Outfitters. The company ended the quarter with $182.5 million in cash, $340.4 million in marketable securities and a 10% inventory increase, largely due to early holiday merchandise shipments and higher sales expectations. Following the print, several analysts raised price targets, which appears to have helped push shares higher on Wednesday. Citigroup analyst Paul Lejuez upgraded Urban Outfitters from Neutral to Buy and raised the price target from $42 to $59. Telsey Advisory Group analyst Dana Telsey maintained a Market Perform and raised the price target from $44 to $46. BofA Securities analyst Lorraine Hutchinson maintained a Buy and raised the price target from $46 to $53. Barclays analyst Adrienne Yih maintained an Overweight and raised the price target from $43 to $51. Wells Fargo analyst Ike Boruchow maintained an Equal-Weight and raised the price target from $40 to $48.

Claims about rare Lincoln Wheat pennies worth millions resurfaced this week. Social media users and reports said that a penny, valued at $2.3 million, going on sale. However, there is no evidence to back such claims. The bronze coin is one of the most valuable ones in the US currently. The Lincoln Bronze Wheat Penny was designed by Victor D. Brenner in 1943. During World War 2, pennies were made of steel to save copper - a commonly used material for war effort. However, a few of them were mistakenly made of bronze and are very rare. Made of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc alloy, the penny sold for $1.7 million in 2010 but is valued at $2.3 million in mint uncirculated condition.

DRIVERLESS Knight Rider-style buses are set to hit UK roads in days as thousands brace for the terrifying new concept.

Except it's almost impossible to tell which end is the front, because there's no space for a driver's seat. Instead, the entire pod has room for passengers, with seats along either side and a central door. Before it is given the green light, the buses will be trialled in the city centre in December, MK Citizen reported. read more in motors TOW THE LINE What the squares and circles on a car bumper are for HIDDEN GEMS Classic cars sat in barn for 40 years sell for 10 TIMES original value If successful, the vehicles should be ready to board its first passengers in 2025.

"We have also worked rigorously to ensure public safety. Working closely with Milton Keynes City Council, BT and ECS, we will establish a city centre control room, connected by a specifically designed communications network, provided by CableFree, which will in-turn allow the Ohmio vehicles to be supervised and managed remotely. “It really has been a fantastic project to work on and we can’t thank all of our partners and funders enough for their continued work and support.” Tesla opens 17 ‘Self-Serve’ test centres so customers can try driverless EVs Mark Cracknell, program director at Zenzic, added: “We are proud to have supported the development of StreetCAV and to have worked with all of the partners involved in this pioneering project. “Should the trial prove a success, it could lay the foundations for a more connected, inclusive, and resilient transportation network not only for Milton Keynes, but for towns and cities across the globe. “It is a perfect example of how, by working more collaboratively and bringing together industry, academia and the public sector, the UK can lead the way in accelerating the self-driving revolution.” The Sun Online has reached out to Milton Keynes Council for comment. TICKET TO THE FUTURE Milton Keynes isn't the only town which could soon have driverless motors roaming around its streets. In early 2023, The Sun Online reported how self-driving, zero-emission shuttles will be piloted in Sunderland after receiving £6m in government and industry funding. The Sunderland Advanced Mobility Shuttle project added it would trial three self-driving Aurrigo Auto-Shuttles. A safety driver will be on board the shuttles just in case. These futuristic-looking vehicles will transport passengers on public roads between Sunderland Interchange, Sunderland Royal Hospital and the University of Sunderland City Campus. The initiative is led by Sunderland City Council in partnership with Aurrigo, Stagecoach, Angoka Ltf, Newcastle University and Bai Communications. The project has received a £3m government grant matched by industry pros - which totals £6m.
