Sanae Takaichi Is Set to Be Japan’s First Female Prime Minister. But Will She Advance Women’s Rights?

Sanae Takaichi is poised to break Japan’s political glass ceiling. Her rise marks a significant moment in a country where women have historically faced numerous barriers to political advancement.

However, some worry that despite her achievements, Takaichi may maintain policies that have traditionally held women back. Critics express concern that her approach could slow progress on gender equality, even as she makes history.

As Japan watches this unfold, the balance between breakthrough and tradition remains a critical question for the future of women in Japanese politics.

Pitt dominates Syracuse 30-13 for third straight win

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Quarterback Mason Heintschel ran for a touchdown, Kenny Johnson returned a punt 66 yards for another score, and Trey Butkowski kicked three field goals as Pittsburgh defeated Syracuse 30-13 on Saturday night.

Pitt (5-2, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) secured its third straight win behind true freshman Heintschel, while the Orange (3-4, 1-3) suffered their third consecutive loss. This was Syracuse’s third straight game with LSU transfer Rickie Collins starting at quarterback, following a season-ending injury to Steve Angeli.

With the victory, Pitt extended its dominance over Syracuse, winning seven of the last eight meetings and 20 of the last 24 games in the series that dates back to 1955.

Both teams struggled offensively, combining for just 28 first downs and 472 total yards. Penalties were also a factor, with the teams committing 25 combined infractions.

Heintschel completed 13 of 24 passes for 143 yards with one interception and was sacked seven times. Ja’Kyrian Turner led the Panthers on the ground with 42 rushing yards. Collins finished 16-of-32 passing for 126 yards, throwing two touchdown passes alongside three interceptions, and led Syracuse with 37 rushing yards. Johntay Cook was the Orange’s top receiver with seven catches for 66 yards.

The first half featured several critical quarterback turnovers. After an interception by Pitt cornerback Tamon Lynum, Heintschel broke free for a 36-yard touchdown run, putting Pitt on the board first. Late in the first quarter, Syracuse cornerback Davien Kerr intercepted Heintschel and returned the ball to the Pitt 12-yard line, setting up an 11-yard touchdown pass from Collins to Darrell Gill Jr. to tie the game at 7.

From there, Pitt took control. Just before halftime, following a Syracuse three-and-out, Johnson fielded a punt from Jack Stonehouse and sprinted 66 yards for a touchdown with only two seconds remaining, giving the Panthers a 17-7 lead at the break.

Syracuse’s offensive woes continued in the second half. A potential fourth interception for Pitt was thwarted by a dropped catch from safety Javon McIntyre. Freshman Luke Carney briefly replaced Collins for two drives in the third quarter before Collins returned.

The Orange managed only 74 yards and five first downs in the first 30 minutes, including just 14 yards on 12 rushes against a Pitt defense that ranked nationally among the best against the run, allowing just 2.16 yards per carry. Syracuse also went three-and-out six times.

**The Takeaway**

**Pittsburgh:** The Panthers did just enough to secure their third straight victory but struggled to consistently move the ball and protect Heintschel.

**Syracuse:** With their offense plagued by turnovers and inefficiency, the Orange face the daunting prospect of three of their next four games on the road against ranked opponents, including a crucial matchup next Saturday at undefeated No. 7 Georgia Tech.

**Up Next**

– Pitt hosts N.C. State on Saturday.

– Syracuse travels to No. 12 Georgia Tech on Saturday.

Apple’s failure to finalize the design of one component could delay iPhone Fold

**Foldable iPhone May Be Delayed Until 2027 Due to Hinge Design Challenges**

The launch of Apple’s first foldable iPhone might be pushed back to 2027, owing to setbacks in the design of a crucial component. Until now, most reports suggested that Apple would unveil its much-anticipated foldable iPhone as early as next September, debuting alongside the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the iPhone Air. The base iPhone 18 model was expected in the following spring, along with a more affordable iPhone 18e.

However, new speculation indicates that the device, likely to be named the iPhone Fold, could face a significant delay—potentially not arriving until 2027. This update comes from Japanese securities firm Mizuho Securities.

### Hinge Production Delays Could Push iPhone Fold Release to 2027

According to South Korean website The Elec, Mizuho informed its clients that Apple has yet to finalize both the design and specifications for its first foldable iPhone. There are lingering questions about several components, the most notable being the hinge—a critical part for foldable devices.

Apple reportedly planned to use a unique hinge designed to minimize, or even eliminate, the crease that plagues current foldable phones. Just recently, respected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo noted that the hinge for Apple’s foldable iPhone may end up costing $20 to $40 less than previously expected. Currently, the price per hinge is estimated at $100 to $120, but Kuo predicts this could drop to $70 or $80 by the time mass production begins.

Mizuho’s note, translated by AppleInsider, stated: “It is not easy to mass-produce a foldable phone in the third quarter of 2026 and release it in September. It takes time to decide the final design and specification of Apple’s hinge.” This could be reason enough for Apple to delay the iPhone Fold’s release until 2027.

### Anticipated Specs and Launch Numbers

Mizuho Securities forecasts that the iPhone Fold will feature a 7.58-inch internal screen and a 5.38-inch cover display. Previous reports had predicted a slightly larger 5.49-inch external screen and a 7.76-inch internal screen. For comparison, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 will have an 8-inch internal display and a 6.5-inch external screen.

If Apple does manage a 2026 launch, Mizuho believes that the company would produce five to seven million fewer iPhone Folds than originally planned. The anticipated number of display panels has been revised downward from 13 million to 9 million units.

### Is There Demand for a Foldable iPhone?

A poll taken about the device revealed a divided audience:

– **Yes, I can’t wait for the iPhone Fold.**
– **No, I don’t like foldable phones.**
– **I would love a foldable phone, but not a foldable iPhone.**

### Foldables Remain a Niche Market

Foldable phones currently account for roughly 1.5% to 1.6% of the global smartphone market in 2025, with total shipments forecast to reach nearly 20 million units this year. The largest manufacturer in this segment is Huawei, holding 45% of the foldable market as of the second quarter of 2025.

Motorola’s Razr line has also surged, doubling its global foldable market share to 28% and securing second place. Samsung, meanwhile, holds 9% of the worldwide foldable market. Notably, in the U.S., Motorola and Samsung are the top two foldable phone brands.

### Touch ID May Return with the iPhone Fold

One fan-favorite feature rumored to return with the iPhone Fold is Touch ID. First introduced with the iPhone 5s in 2013 and replaced by Face ID starting with the iPhone X, the fingerprint sensor could be making a comeback with Apple’s first foldable device.

### The Foldable Future

While the foldable smartphone market remains a niche, many analysts predict a surge in popularity if and when Apple enters the space. Until then, enthusiasts and casual users alike will have to wait a bit longer for Apple’s innovative take on the foldable device.

Josh Mahura scores in OT to lift the Kraken past the Maple Leafs, 4-3

TORONTO (AP) — Josh Mahura scored his first goal of the season at 3:06 of overtime to give the Seattle Kraken a 4-3 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night.

Mahura beat Anthony Stolarz with a high shot, helping Seattle snap a two-game overtime losing streak on the opening night of their six-game road trip, which began with consecutive extra-time losses in Montreal and Ottawa.

Shane Wright contributed with a goal and an assist for the Kraken, while Jani Nyman and Vince Dunn also found the back of the net. Joey Daccord made 26 saves to secure the win, and Mason Marchment added two assists.

For the Maple Leafs, John Tavares scored twice, reaching a milestone of 500 points with Toronto. Morgan Rielly also scored, and goaltender Anthony Stolarz stopped 24 shots. Tavares’s second goal tied the game at 3-3 on a power play early in the third period.

The Kraken arrived at Scotiabank Arena wearing Mariners jerseys, showing support for Seattle’s baseball team. The Mariners currently lead the Toronto Blue Jays 3-2 in the American League Championship Series and have the chance to reach the franchise’s first World Series with a win in Sunday’s game in Toronto.

**Up next:**
– Kraken: At Philadelphia on Monday night
– Maple Leafs: Host New Jersey on Tuesday night

‘Doctor Dolittle’ and ‘The Collector’ Actress Dies: Samantha Eggar Was 86

British actress Samantha Eggar has died at the age of 86. Her daughter, actress Jenna Stern, told The Hollywood Reporter that Eggar passed away on Wednesday at her home in Sherman Oaks.

Best known for her roles in *Doctor Dolittle* and *The Collector*, Eggar had been battling illness for the past five years but “lived a long, fabulous life,” Stern said.

Born Victoria Louise Samantha Marie Elizabeth Therese Eggar on March 5, 1939, in Hampstead, England, she was raised in the Buckinghamshire countryside. During World War II, Eggar lived in the countryside with family friends and spent 12 years in a convent. It was there that her love of the arts blossomed as she was exposed to plays, concerts, and poetry.

Although she earned a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, her mother did not want her to pursue acting. Instead, Eggar was allowed to attend art school to study painting and drawing, eventually working as a fashion artist after graduation.

Her career took a turn when her cousin encouraged her to enroll at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Arts. “He said, ‘Here’s the door. Get in there. Go and do it,’” Eggar once recalled. “‘Do those bits you’ve done. You’ve got your own version of Ophelia. And you’ve got some poems you’ve learned.’ So I did. And the next thing I know, I’m accepted.”

Before completing the program at Webber Douglas, Eggar was offered a role in Cecil Beaton’s play *Landscape With Figures* in 1959, about painter Thomas Gainsborough. Producer Betty E. Box soon noticed her and cast her as a college coed in *Young and Willing* (1962). This was followed by roles in *Doctor in Distress* (1963), *Dr. Crippen* (1963), and *Psyche 59* (1964).

In 1965, Eggar landed the role of Miranda Grey in William Wyler’s psychological horror film *The Collector*, opposite Terence Stamp. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, where both Eggar and Stamp won Best Actress and Best Actor awards, respectively. That same year, Eggar won the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress, though the Oscar went to Julie Christie for *Darling*.

Throughout the 1960s, Eggar appeared in numerous films, including *Return From the Ashes*, *Walk, Don’t Run*, and *Doctor Dolittle*.

In 1972, Eggar moved to Los Angeles to further her acting career. She starred opposite Yul Brynner in the CBS television adaptation of *The King and I* and played Phyllis Dietrichson in the 1973 ABC remake of *Double Indemnity*.

Her extensive filmography also includes *Ragin’ Cajun*, *Dark Horse*, *Inevitable Grace*, *The Phantom*, *The Astronaut’s Wife*, *The Seven-Per-Cent Solution*, *The Dead Are Alive!*, *A Name for Evil*, *The Uncanny*, *Curtains*, *The Brood*, as well as appearances on TV series like *Star Trek: The Next Generation* and *Commander in Chief*.

Beyond acting, Eggar was deeply involved in her community as a lector and lay minister at the Church of the Good Shepherd in Beverly Hills and at Saint Francis de Sales Parish in Sherman Oaks. She led weekly meditations there until the COVID-19 pandemic.

Eggar was married to American actor Tom Stern from 1964 until their divorce in 1971. Stern passed away last year.

Her family also shared fond memories of her love for animals: “To know Sam was to understand her love for animals, all creatures great and small. Her beloved pups ranged from Great Danes to Dalmatians, street rescues to her adored bulldogs, their leashes still hanging in memoriam long after their passing.”

Samantha Eggar leaves behind a legacy of remarkable performances and a life filled with passion for the arts and compassion for all living beings.
