Cox was further below average in the South region with a score of 707, trailing the overall category score of 727 and behind five other ISPs, including AT&T (753), Xfinity (740), Spectrum (725), Mediacom (723) and Sparklight (716). Still, it was a good enough finish to beat out Frontier (698), Kinetic by Windstream (682), CenturyLink (674), Suddenlink (621) and HughesNet (578).

Hargreaves Lansdown equity analyst Matt Britzman said the company's BetMGM division 'has been a shining light' that is likely to benefit from expansion into more American states and additional gains in market share. 

'I don't know what to say about Jak Knight that he wouldn't make fun of me for,' wrote writer and actor Dani Fernandez. 'But you were so incredibly loved and respected. There will never be anyone quite like you.'

In a sign that he was making headway in his stand-up career, Knight eventually opened up for Chappelle while out on tour, and he would share the stage with other more high-profile comedians like Joel McHale , Eric Andre, Moshe Kasher and Aziz Ansari.

Its BetMGM joint venture has also forged tie-ups with Carnival Corporation to offer cruise ship gaming, and with Sony Pictures Television and slot machine producer IGT to launch a digital casino based on the television programme Wheel of Fortune.

Turnover from the company's high street stores jumped a colossal 243 per cent during the period, exceeding pre-pandemic levels in the second quarter thanks to strong demand for gaming and self-service betting terminals.

That said, Cox plans skew toward the pricey side, with a higher cost per megabit than other cable providers (including Xfinity and Spectrum). What's more, Cox's pricing structure will try to push you into a more expensive plan each year. You'll also need to contend with a monthly data cap -- though, fortunately, Cox's data usage policies are about as reasonable as you could hope for. 

HONG KONG, July 9 (Reuters) - Macau will shut almost all commercial and industrial businesses including its casinos for one week from Monday, as authorities race to curb a surge of COVID-19 infections in the world's biggest gambling hub.

US digital wallets could upend commercial banking Digital wallets issued by the Fed, though, would be a destabilizing form of CBDC. "It really messes with the general pyramidal structure of central banking as a concept, which has always been that central banks are not bankers to average citizens," according to Peebles. As a rule, central bankers oversee the banking system, whereas private banks interact with the consumer. 

Solomon Georgio posted: ' I don't know what to say. I met Jak Knight when he was a teenager. I'll never forget the weekend me, him and Mo Welch did a casino show for a bunch of Trump voters. One crowd was especially hateful and he didn't hold back a single punch.'

This inevitably caused them a significant loss in trade, but had the upside effect of driving punters to place digital bets, and Entain went on to achieve 23 successive quarters of double-digit percentage expansion in online revenue. 

If the US government monitors everything you buy -- from milk at your local store to poker chips during your next casino trip -- there's potential for abuse. "All sorts of profiling could emerge out of that, and hackers might deem that database to be quite valuable, too," Peebles said. "So you could picture predatory marketing to the elderly, for example, if the data got out."

But CBDCs are complex. They offer some potential benefits (providing financial resources to underbanked populations, for example) and potential drawbacks (including significant privacy concerns). For now, here's an introduction to some of the basics, as well as an overview of which countries are working on CBDCs and some clues about how a central bank digital currency might work in practice. 

He added: 'The underlying business looks to be progressing well, with the group finding a good balance between building out its online presence and offering an in-store option. The BetMGM project offers a real growth driver for the future if execution remains on point.'

'With an increasingly recreational customer base and relatively resilient revenue, we remain confident that our customer focus, diversification and proven ability to grow both organically and through M&A (mergers and acquisitions) will enable us to deliver further progress against our strategy.'
Comedian James Adomian heaped praise on his colleague: 'Whenever I was on a lineup with Jak Knight, I knew it was going to be a wildly funny night,' he began, adding, 'Always loved watching him over the last decade. He was winning big, all of it well deserved, so witty and memorable every moment onstage and off. A painful loss to comedy.'
