Brazil judge summons Bolsonaro's lawyers for incompliance with court orders, local media reports
SAO PAULO, July 21 (Reuters) - Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes summoned the lawyers of former President Jair Bolsonaro to clarify Bolsonaro's alleged non-compliance with court orders restricting his use of social media, news outlet G1 reported on Monday. Moraes gave Bolsonaro's lawyers 24 hours to present an explanation, adding that if the defense does not adequately justify the behavior, he may order the immediate arrest of the former president, according to G1. Moraes said earlier in the day that Bolsonaro may be arrested if his press interviews are published on social media, raising questions about whether the right-wing leader is allowed to talk to journalists.

Immersive hopes to regain winning thread in G1 Coaching Club American Oaks
Reigning Champion Two-Year-Old Filly Immersive looks to avenge a first career defeat on her return to G1 company in the Coaching Club American Oaks at Saratoga in US on Saturday. The Nyquist filly emerged with plenty of credit when going down by a neck to Take Charge Milady in the Monomoy Girl Stakes at Churchill Downs in mid-June, in which the Godolphin homebred was making her first start of the season following a layoff with bone bruising. In an outstanding juvenile campaign for Brad Cox, Immersive dominated her division with four imposing wins, including a hat-trick of G1 victories in the Spinaway Stakes, Darley Alcibiades Stakes and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies. Michael Banahan, Director of Bloodstock, Godolphin USA, said: 'Immersive has trained like the champion she is since her extended spell off in the winter. Her comeback prep race was everything we could have asked for, except for losing her undefeated record. 'She had a bullet workout last Saturday, indicating her readiness for her first major goal of the season here. She didn't get an ideal draw down on the rail, but she dealt with the same issue last year in the Spinaway. 'Hopefully, La Cara doesn't get an easy uncontested lead, like she has in both her G1 wins, and is kept honest in front. Brad is very happy with Immersive's condition. We expect her to run very well and hopefully get back on the winning trail.' Nash bids to secure a first Graded Stakes win in the G2 Alfred G Vanderbilt Handicap on the same card, with the Medaglia d'Oro colt having found his calling as a hold-up sprinter. Runner-up to Preakness winner Seize The Grey in last year's G2 Pat Day Mile, Nash is two wins from three starts in allowance optional claimers since dropping to six furlongs earlier this season. Michael Banahan added: 'Nash is coming into the G2 Vanderbilt in great shape and had a very good breeze last Saturday at his homebase of Churchill Downs. Last year, we were hoping that he would make it down the Derby trail, but that didn't work out and trying to figure out his preferred distance was somewhat trial and error. He appears to have found his home as a come-from-behind sprinter. 'He received one of the highest 2025 speed figures winning his last race, so now is the time to find out if he can replicate that in Graded company. This is a tough race and would probably be much the same field if it were a G1. 'We are hopeful of a good performance and, if he runs back to his last race, he should be very competitive, although he must seal the deal against Graded opposition.' Rain key to Ancient Wisdom's Newbury chances: Ancient Wisdom looks set for a return to Listed company in the Steventon Stakes at Newbury in UK on Saturday providing the forecast rain arrives at the Berkshire course. The son of Dubawi finished third on his sole previous Listed appearance in Ascot's Pat Eddery Stakes in July, 2023, with his nine subsequent starts all coming in Group races including victory in the same season's G1 Futurity Trophy. Ancient Wisdom failed to act on quicker ground at Newbury on his four-year-old return but bounced back to form with a half-length second in the G3 Gordon Richards Stakes. He was pitched back into G1 company for the Coronation Cup at Epsom Downs on his latest outing, in which he faded to fifth. Trainer Charlie Appleby said: 'Ancient Wisdom has been gelded since his run in the Coronation Cup, and we feel that a mile and a quarter is probably his optimum trip these days. He wants plenty of cut underneath and would be an unlikely runner unless it's genuine good to soft ground.' Meanwhile, Consistent four-year-old Casapueblo produced another valiant effort as he went down by half a length to Mont de Soleil in the G3 Grand Prix de Vichy in France. Returning to the provinces having finished second in a Toulouse Listed race in April, the Andre Fabre-trained son of Le Havre was held up in sixth of the seven runners by Cristian Demuro for most of the 10-furlong highlight of Vichy's season. Tito Mo Cen made the early running before Cambronne snuck up the inside rail to hit the front after two and a half furlongs. Cambronne continued to save ground entering the straight, with Tito Mo Cen leading the rest of the field down the centre of the course. Casapueblo tracked Mont de Soleil as the eventual winner swooped to take up the running over a furlong out and the Godolphin runner saw out the trip well, edging out Woodchuck for second in the closing strides.

I wore the Even Realities G1 for a month — and they're smart glasses I'd actually wear despite their flaws
After being asked to make a speech at a wedding I had only an hour to prepare for, I was in full-blown panic mode. What to say, what stories to bring up and how the heck would I remember it all? Well, that's when the Even Realities G1 smart glasses came in clutch. You see, these AI glasses with a simple HUD come equipped with a handy teleprompt feature that displays text as you speak, right in your field of view. It almost felt like I was cheating, but for all the right reasons — all in a pair of specs that don't look all that "smart." That's just one of the many perks of wearing the G1 smart glasses, which have also helped me navigate around town with seamless directions, translate conversations in different languages and check in with notifications at just a glance. It's like having an unintrusive, simplistic smartphone on your face, one that feels like your regular pair of specs. As smart glasses like the Viture Luma Pro and Xreal One Pro deliver mesmerizing virtual AR displays that can act as a TV screen in chunky frames that scream "these are AR glasses!", the Even Realities G1 scraps all that for a casual, lightweight and comfortable design with an everyday appeal. More so than most these days, these are the smart specs you'd actually reach for to wear daily. And yes, they come with a prescription. But take a look at its $599/£594 price tag and you'll be second-guessing if the G1's features and appeal are worth it. That's a hefty cost, and you won't find any camera or speakers here, unlike the Ray-Ban Meta glasses or Solos AirGo 3 (no camera, but you do get audio). Plus, with its own Even AI, responses to prompts are all over the place. Although the good news is you can switch to ChatGPT or Perplexity. Are these the best smart glasses you can get? Maybe for some, but you'll be paying a pretty penny for them. Price From $599/£594 Display Micro-LED, 640x200 virtual screen, 1000 nits of perceived brightness, 20Hz Field of view (FOV) 25 degrees Dimensions (when open) 5.4 x 5.2 x 1.4 inches Weight 1.5 ounces Everyone is vying for a pair of smart glasses that have that seamless, everyday glasses look, and the Even Realities G1 are the closest I've seen. Having the AR interface and AI capabilities crammed in are what make these specs remarkable. Okay, I didn't end up wearing the G1 smart glasses to make that wedding speech, as I don't tend to wear specs in pictures anyway. But if I did, there wouldn't be many that would bat an eyelid and wonder if these are AI glasses in the first place — unlike the Viture Luma Pro and Xreal One Pro. Think of the G1 as your usual prescription glasses with a touch of AI, featuring larger-than-most temple tips that hide behind the ears. That's how Even Realities gets away with the G1's simplistic yet stylish look, as it puts the majority of its hardware there. That includes the G1's 160 mAh battery, wireless charging tech (when used in the included case with a 2,000 mAh battery capacity), Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity and touch controls. There's only one size of the G1, but they do come in two flavors: the more rounded G1 A and the rectangular-framed G1 B, which is what I reviewed. (Circular lenses do not suit me.) These come in either grey or brown, and for an added fee (more on this later), they also come with sunglasses frames. I adore the comfortable, lightweight feel and premium, minimalist look the G1 smart glasses offer, with their magnesium and titanium alloy frames, flexible temples and snug nosepads. I never felt paranoid about wearing them either, as I treated them as glasses I'd usually wear when working or traveling around the city, especially since my astigmatism gives me headaches. Even Realities' mission was to make everyday eyewear smart, and aside from its large temple tips (tech has to be housed somewhere), it's accomplished just that. The Even Realities G1 aren't your alternative 120-inch monitor for watching shows or playing games on the go, like other modern AR glasses, but they are your second display away from an iPhone or Android phone. In fact, it's almost like having a personal in-game HUD system of your daily routine. The lenses sport waveguide optics tech to show a 640x200 resolution display with dot matrix green display. There's no fancy specs here, with a simple 20Hz refresh rate and 25-degree FOV, but there doesn't need to be for what the display shows. You'll see clear, retro-inspired text that suits the style of the smart glasses. Impressively, the G1 display boasts 1000 nits of brightness, just like the Viture Luma Pro, and it's auto-adjustable depending on your environment. It's been incredibly clear in nearly all light settings, although looking straight up at a sunny, clear blue sky will make the interface completely disappear, understandably. Still, even when walking around outside, I was able to see what was on display. Speaking of which, the G1 activate when tilting your head slightly up. This can be adjusted from a 0- to 60-degree angle, with the sweet spot being 20 degrees. It does mean I was randomly looking up from time to time, and I can imagine onlookers would think I'm constantly staring at something random in the sky, but it's nice to be able to adjust this angle to suit the wearer's needs. When looking up, a HeadUp display is triggered instantly, with a dashboard showing the date, time, temperature and any notes or upcoming events I have planned. That alone is handy to have at a glance, and the clear green pixelated text is easy to see and read. It doesn't obstruct my view either, as it only takes up a small portion at the top of the lenses so I can, say, still see where I'm walking without hassle. There are also touch sensors on the tip of the temples, allowing you to kind of interact with the smart glasses. These sensors activate Even AI, put them on silent, and control other features like Teleprompt (more on this soon). I didn't use these all that much, as a lot of what's done is right in the user-friendly Even Realities app on iPhone and Android. Sure, I'd prefer to be able to do everything on the glasses instead, but the G1 isn't a smartphone replacement, and for the most part, they already offer plenty of useful information. Is it simple? Yes, but that's to the Even Realities G1's merit. They're unassuming smart glasses, after all, so adding simplistic "smart" touches works in their favor. Even Realities has put a lot of thought into what users can use smart glasses for, not just for the social media or AI aspects of the Ray-Ban Meta or Solos AirGo 3 specs — and the tools the G1 offer actually come in handy (even if they can be a tad niche). The G1 smart glasses offer live translation, navigation à la Google Maps, QuickNotes to add anything to your agenda and Teleprompt, which can be incredibly useful for presentations and speeches. And I could get notifications from my phone to read texts. Again, you'll have to interact with the app to make all these features work, as the glasses are limited to their Bluetooth connection to a smartphone, but they still work like a charm. I'm a big fan of how the teleprompter isn't just scrolling text, as the G1 hears what you say via its microphones and follows along at your speed as you speak. Anyone who struggles with public speaking or trying to remember what to say can make great use out of this. The navigation tool also comes in handy and works by giving you turn-by-turn directions to reach your destination. It almost reminds me of the green map interface of Fallout 3, although when walking outdoors on a bright day, it can be a struggle to see the display itself, especially when looking up. In practice, however, and maybe it's due to the cloudy nature of London, this didn't cause much issue. I also put the G1's Translate feature to good use, which effectively translated a conversation I had with my pal, speaking French, to English in real time. It's snappy enough, and was able to gauge the conversation without any stumbles. In more complicated, faster talks, though, it may be harder to gauge. The good news is it offers a host of languages, including Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin and more. Regardless, the G1 smart glasses present several use cases that can aid in your day-to-day, akin to the helpfulness of a smartwatch without all the health features, but with more tools that suit glasses. As much as I enjoyed reaching for the Even Realities G1 smart glasses daily, their simplicity comes to a fault considering their hefty price tag. And with that cost, you're not getting other features rival glasses offer, like a camera, speakers and even a useful AI. The G1s are classed as AI and AR smart glasses, but the latter is very minimal. You won't be able to snap shots, have a speech-to-speech conversation with the onboard AI, listen to audio or watch shows on a ridiculously large virtual display here — all you're really getting is green text. It's not meant to deliver the same capabilities as Xreal or Viture AR glasses, but even compared to the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, which come with cameras and speakers, they don't offer the same level of features. Even the Solos AirGo 3 come with good audio! Dumping all those extras for a cleaner, less techy design is the goal, but the G1 loses out on other features that less expensive AI glasses deliver. The number of times I've brought up Even AI to ask a simple question only to be cut offer near-immediately with a "I'm having trouble understanding your request" has made me stop using the feature outright. I'd barely get a word in before the AI decided that I probably wasn't saying anything, and when I did get it working, the AI would give me the wrong answer. For example, I asked, "what's the best way to get to Euston station?", only for the AI to reply with directions for Houston, Texas. I mean, it should know I'm at least in the U.K., right? Luckily, the app allows you to change LLMs to either ChatGPT or Perplexity, which are far more capable of giving better answers. But there was still a problem with the timing of questions and communication, which I found strange considering the live translation appeared to work without problems. Perhaps further updates are needed, but for now, these AI-driven smart glasses come with AI that's more frustrating than helpful. The Even Realities G1 are among the priciest smart glasses around, and considering their abilities, it's a hard pill to swallow. At $599/£594, not including the added $150 prescription or $100 sunglasses clip, the G1s are a very pricey venture. To put that into perspective, the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses start at $299, the Solos AirGo 3 are $249 and even AR-packed glasses like the Viture Luma Pro are $499. Heck, even the RayNeo Air 3s, which feature Micro-OLED displays with a 1080p picture and 120Hz refresh rate, are just $269. It's only outshone in price by the $649 Viture Pro XR and $749 Rokid AR Lite, but these come with premium AR features. Of course, the Even Realities G1 are purposefully light on tech due to them being "everyday" eyewear, but it's a lot of chump change for what you get. The Even Realities G1 are the smart glasses I've always imagined, bringing a touch of tech to casual-looking eyewear. That alone gives them brownie points, as it's actually of pair of smart specs I'd wear while working, traveling and even while reading, watching shows or playing games. That's something many companies are striving toward, and Even Realties also nails the unique features the G1s offer. From the snappy live translations to the handy navigation tool, along with the seamless teleprompter, you're getting a lot out of a simple, easy-to-see AR interface that doesn't obstruct your view. All if you're willing to dish out at least $599/£594, that is. When the competition in other AI smart glasses —especially the Ray-Ban Meta — come with a host of extra specs for half the price, the G1 smart glasses start to look less appealing. Even Realities is on the right track, as the G1s have a lot to offer those who want to give their eyewear a tech upgrade. But when there are cheaper options available that deliver more features, whether it's just a camera or audio, they may not be everyone's go-to choice.
