Myanmar's military-led government extends state of emergency, forcing delay in promised election
Myanmar's military-controlled government has extended the state of emergency it imposed when the army seized power from an elected government 2 1/2 years ago, state-run media said Monday, forcing a further delay in elections it promised when it took over. MRTV television said the National Defense and Security Council met Monday in the capital, Naypyitaw, and extended the state of emergency for another six months starting Tuesday because time is needed to prepare for the elections. The NDSC is nominally a constitutional government body, but in practice is controlled by the military.

Texas Rangers acquires Max Scherzer in blockbuster trade with the New York Mets after losing 4-0 to San Diego Padres, their 6th loss in 8 games
Texas Rangers have made a significant move to bolster their pitching rotation, agreeing to acquire three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer from the New York Mets. The deal, still awaiting official announcement, comes amidst the Rangers' recent struggles, with a 4-0 loss to the San Diego Padres being their sixth defeat in eight games, narrowing their AL West lead to just one game over the Houston Astros. The blockbuster trade sees the Rangers add the 39-year-old Scherzer, a highly accomplished pitcher with a stellar track record. This acquisition comes as a timely boost for the team, with their ace Nathan Eovaldi experiencing setbacks, causing his next start to be pushed back once again. Manager Bruce Bochy has expressed the need for the rotation to improve, making Scherzer's arrival all the more crucial. Meanwhile, Scherzer's addition to the Rangers' roster means joining forces with another former Mets pitcher, the two-time Cy Young Award winner, Jacob deGrom. Unfortunately, deGrom is currently sidelined due to Tommy John elbow surgery, potentially keeping him out of action until the end of next season.
