A lightning bolt struck and killed both a six-year-old boy and his father while walking home from school in Texas.

Grayson Boggs, the six-year-old boy, was taken to the hospital where he remained in critical condition on a ventilator until he was removed and passed away. A fundraiser has been started to help with funeral expenses which has raised more than $87,000.

The Economist: Indians are flocking to study at British universities
British universities are seeing a surge in applications from international students, particularly from India and Nigeria. Indian students, in particular, have increased six-fold between 2017 and 2021, due to a change in visa rules that allows postgraduates to stay and work in the UK for two years after graduation. This has been a financial boon for universities, as foreign students pay higher fees and now constitute around one-fifth of the universities' income. However, changes in immigration policies and a high cost of living may affect the attractiveness of studying in the UK.
The Bank of England is facing a difficult situation with rising inflation and stagnant wage growth. Britons are bracing for pricier mortgages, which may lead to slower economic growth. There are also concerns about the feasibility of the UK's ambitious AI dreams, which require a more innovative approach.

Forbes: South Korea Are More Competitive Under Coach Bell
South Korea's women's soccer team has been transformed by coach Colin Bell, who has made them a more aggressive team and trained them to be more competitive ahead of the Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand next month. The Koreans, who reached the final of the Asian Cup last year, are aiming to advance to the round of 16, with Lee Geum-min saying the team will play every game as if it were the final. Some players are plying their trade in overseas leagues, and Lee believes the team has become stronger compared to five years ago, with many rookies and young players.
