Carilion Clinic Family Medicine in Weyers Cave is closing. What we know
The Weyers Cave location of Carilion Clinic Family Medicine will be closing effective July 8. "After careful consideration, we made the decision to close," said Hannah Curtis, a spokesperson for the Roanoke-based healthcare provider. "This will give providers and care teams additional support and resources as they transition to other nearby Carilion Family Medicine locations." Curtis said patient care will automatically transition with the providers, and they are working closely with patients ahead of July 8 to communicate changes. "If patients prefer to continue care with a different provider or at another location, they are welcome to choose from any of our nearby locations, including Bridgewater, Dayton, Fort Defiance, Staunton, and Waynesboro practices," Curtis said.

3 Clever Ways To Immediately Increase Your Influence At Work
Orange colored paper boat leading a white paper boats. Business Leadership Concept. In every workplace, there seem to be people who have an uncanny ability to get things done through others. Their ideas get implemented. Their opinions carry weight. Decision-makers actively seek their input. Meanwhile, equally talented professionals struggle to get their voices heard or their proposals approved. What's the difference? It often comes down to being able to influence others through strategic communication. Many of us think of influence as some dark art of office politics or manipulation. But the good news is that it isn't some innate charisma you either have or don't. The most effective communicators aren't playing games or putting on an act. They're thoughtful, observant professionals who've learned to articulate themselves in ways that resonate with higher-ups. They understand the psychology of how people process information and make choices, and they use this knowledge responsibly. Whether you're pitching a new initiative, advocating for resources, or simply trying to get your expertise recognized, small adjustments in how you communicate can dramatically change how your message lands. Here are three powerful strategies that can help you become more influential at work, starting with your very next conversation. Decision-makers are drowning in information and short on time. When you take too long to make your point, you risk losing their attention and undermining your own credibility. Instead of building up to your main message, lead with it. Then follow with supporting details as needed. For example: Before any important meeting, write your key message in two sentences or less. This forces you to get crystal clear on what matters most. Ask yourself: "If my stakeholder only remembers one thing from this interaction, what should it be?" That's your lead. The most persuasive people don't just present good ideas. They go out of their way to show their ideas solve specific problems their audience cares about. Instead of saying "This automation will save 20 hours per week," try "This solution will let you deliver client reports three days faster, giving you more buffer for review cycles." Even when pushing back on a deadline, focus on how it will help the person reach their goals in the end. For example, "To give you the most useful data for your board presentation, I'd need until Thursday to compile the full analysis." The key is to understand what actually matters to your audience. For a CFO, consider how your proposal affects costs or reduces financial risk. For a Product leader you might frame your solution in terms of it improves user experience, whereas for a sales leader you'd emphasize how it would help close deals faster. Small language shifts can dramatically impact how your message lands. Replace tentative, passive language with more active, definitive phrasing. For instance: Don't choose fancy words or corporate jargon to sound impressive. In fact, simpler language often carries more weight. The more concisely and elegantly you can convey a concept, the more it suggests you have mastery of it. Try taking the last important email you wrote or presentation you gave. Highlight every qualifying word or phrase ("just," "maybe," "I think," "sort of"). Then rewrite it without those words. Notice how much stronger your message becomes.

Ashtead Shares Dip As Profits Fall Despite Record Rental Revenues
Photographer: Chris Ratcliffe/Bloomberg Rental equipment specialist Ashtead reversed on Tuesday, as tough market conditions forced profits lower despite record revenues. At £43.51 per share, the FTSE 100 company was last dealing 0.7% lower on the day. Lower equipment sales meant that headline revenue dropped 1% in the 12 months to March, to $10.8 billion. But record revenues across its core rental operations helped reduce the top-line reversal. Rental revenues at the Sunbelt Rentals owner increased 4% year on year, to $10 billion. Operating profit reversed 4% to $2.6 billion, while adjusted pre-tax profit dropped 5% to $2.1 billion. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) rose 3% to $5 billion. This was also a record high. Ashtead has operations in the US, Canada and the UK, though it generates the lion's share of revenues from customers in the States. At its North America General Tool unit, it said rental sales edged 1% higher to $4.9 billion thanks to 'both volume and rate improvement' which it said '[demonstrated] the benefits of our strategy of broadening our end markets.' On an organic basis, revenues were flat due to tough market conditions. Ashtead said that hurricane response efforts contributed around $25 million to $30 million to the top line. North America Specialty rental revenues, meanwhile, leapt 11% to $2.4 billion. Rental revenues in the UK rose 2%, to $599 million. Last year Ashtead invested $2.4 billion in the business, down from $4.3 billion in financial 2024. This was supported by near-record free cash flow of $1.8 billion, up from $216 million the year before. It spent $137 million on five bolt-on acquisitions 'to both expand our footprint and diversify our end markets,' it said. This was down from the $905 million it forked out on 26 purchases in financial 2024 as it slashed spending to reflect market conditions. Through a combination of dividends and share buybacks, Ashtead returned $886 million to shareholders, an all-time high. It raised the full-year dividend to 108 US cents per share from 105 cents previously. Chief executive Brendan Horgan commented that 'the strength of our foundation and growth strategy is reflected in our results and guidance today. I am excited for financial 2026 and what lies ahead as we continue to advance our great company.' Ashtead said it expects rental revenue growth of 0% to 4% during the current fiscal period. Capital expenditure is put at $1.8 billion to $2.2 billion, while free cash flow is predicted to range between $2 billion and $2.3 billion. Analyst Andy Murphy of Edison Group commented that 'while adjusted profit before tax fell… the group's underlying rental business remains robust. The Sunbelt 4.0 strategy continues to gain traction, with customer growth, network expansion, and margin improvements supporting medium-term optimism.' Murphy added that 'the proposed US primary listing remains a strategic milestone' for the current financial year. Ashtead plans to switch its primary listing from London to New York during the first quarter of the 2026 calendar year, whilst retaining a secondary listing in the UK. The Footsie company received the green light from 96.4% of shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting earlier in June. Royston Wild owns shares in Ashtead Group.
