London (CNN Business) Millions of people in the United Kingdom are steeling themselves for colossal rises to their energy bills over the next few months, a coda to a year already marked by record price increases. The crisis is not unique to the country. Prices have shot up across Europe since last fall, driven by a spike in demand as countries lifted pandemic lockdowns. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in late February, and the subsequent drop in Moscow's oil and natural gas exports to Europe , have pushed prices even higher. But UK energy prices are now higher than in comparable economies like France and Italy, analysts told CNN Business. And Brits have suffered much bigger price increases than in most European countries, including Germany, where decades of energy policy has been turned on its head by the Ukraine war. The Office for National Statistics said this week that UK natural gas prices rose nearly 96% in the year to July, while electricity … [Read more...] about Why UK energy prices are rising much faster than in Europe

Swedish video game publisher and media holding company Embracer Group announced its acquisition of eight properties this week, including Middle-earth Enterprises, which controls the intellectual property licensing rights to The Lord of the Rings franchise. Those rights were previously held by The Saul Zaentz Company, which licensed out the property to New Line Cinema for Peter Jackson's celebrated Lord of the Rings film trilogy. While Embracer Group does not own Lord of the Rings - those rights are still owned and managed by the Tolkien Estate - it does mean that Embracer now holds sway over any Lord of the Rings material adapted into different mediums such as film, television, board games, theme parks and of course, video games.

That’s what Rose does for a living — well, except she doesn’t steal her clients’ personal belongings. When she’s not planning other folks’ bedrooms, Rose is in her own home writing a series of erotic novels based on that career.

close Video Republican Joe O’Dea responds to abortion attack ad in Colorado Senate race NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles! DENVER – On the day political handicappers shifted the Colorado Senate race into a more winnable zone for Republicans, Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet released an attack ad that bewildered GOP nominee Joe O'Dea's campaign. Bennet released an ad Thursday attempting to paint O'Dea as someone who wants to ban all abortion. However, O'Dea, to the chagrin of some Colorado Republicans , is far more pro-choice than much of his party. "Michael Bennet has always fought for a woman's right to make her own healthcare decisions, but Joe O'Dea opposes the law protecting abortion access in Colorado," one Coloradan said in Bennet's ad. "O'Dea would have voted to confirm Trump's Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe v. Wade," another person says. "It's just not true," O'Dea said of Bennet's ad in an exclusive … [Read more...] about Colorado Senate shakeup: Joe O’Dea responds to Sen. Bennet’s abortion attack ad as Democrat loses steam
