  1. President Gustavo Petro traveled this Sunday to the island of San Andrés to verify first-hand the conditions in that island territory after the passage of Hurricane Julia, on Saturday night. His arrival on the island occurred around 1 pm this Sunday. It may interest you: "The damage in San Andrés due to Hurricane Julia was slight": Ungr After verifying the conditions for landing and weather conditions by the authorities, the president decided to move. The hurricane left a lot of material damage. In addition to the president, the ministers of Health, Carolina Corcho; Housing, Catalina Velasco, and Environment, Susana Muhamad, as well as the director of the Risk Management Unit, Javier Pava, among other officials. Since Saturday, the head of state had announced that as soon as conditions permitted he would travel to the island territory to face the situation left by the passage of 'Julia'.

  2. Although albatrosses are monogamous animals, females will divorce if their partners' personalities make them uncomfortable. Albatrosses are monogamous animals. In fact, they are among the few bird species that choose a mate for life. However, when the females perceive that the male's behavior is not appropriate, they do not skimp on separating from them. Divorces between albatrosses were documented in a wandering po[CENSORED]tion that scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) detected. This was what they discovered. Against violent males The character of the male is decisive for a female to decide to separate from her partner. Although, historically, the species has opted for monogamy, even this evolutionary conditioning does not make them subordinate to the hostilities of the males. In contrast, researchers from MIT and WHOI found that divorce among albatrosses is more common when the males are aggressive. As Stephanie Jenouvrier, associate scientist and seabird expert, explains: "WE THINK THAT BOLD MALES, BY BEING MORE AGGRESSIVE, WOULD BE MORE LIKELY TO GET DIVORCE, BECAUSE THEY WOULD BE MORE LIKELY TO TAKE THE RISK OF CHANGING PARTNERS TO IMPROVE FUTURE REPRODUCTIVE OUTCOMES," SAYS THE STUDY'S LEAD AUTHOR IN A RELEASE. However, the behavior is not limited to violence. It is common for females to lose interest in shy males, and look for other 'more daring' alternatives. For this reason, Jenouvrier points out, the study reveals that “personality can affect divorce rates” between albatrosses and other species. Beyond monogamy: another consequence of the climate crisis? On average, according to a team led by the University of Lisbon, divorce rates (the scientific term used by the authors to refer to a separation between a pair of albatrosses) between these birds are very low, ranging from 1% to 8%. %. In most cases, divorces usually occur due to reproductive failures, for example, the eggs do not hatch, the young die or are eaten by predators. After analyzing data from albatross pairs from 2004 to 2019, the team discovered a relationship between higher divorce rates and periods when the ocean is warmer, called warm sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs). for its acronym in English) by the team. Not only that: the climate crisis is also likely increasing levels of stress-related hormones in albatrosses, the same ones that peak when faced with food shortages; another factor that could as the temperature of the seas increases. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/por-que-suceden-los-divorcios-entre-los-albatros/

  3. Chevrolet clearly likes a challenge. The last Chevrolet Corvette Z06 used a supercharged version of GM’s long-lived pushrod ‘small block’ V8, and there’s no obvious reason to an outsider why the track-focused version of the current, C8 generation couldn’t have taken the same route to increased performance. Instead, the new Z06 gets an all-new, naturally aspirated 5.5-litre V8, one that uses both a flat-plane crank and twin-cam cylinder heads to produce a very impressive peak of 670bhp. While there are plenty of other changes over the regular Chevrolet Corvette C8, the new engine is the transformational one, radically altering the character of the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. While the basic Corvette has a burbling idle and is curtailed by a lowly 6500rpm redline, the Z06 fires up like a race car and snarls its way to 8500rpm before the limiter calls time, sounding more like a Ferrari than a traditional ’Vette as it does so. Low-down torque is limited but the new engine is tractable at low speeds, and the same eight-speed dual-clutch transmission as the regular C8 can be both smooth and punchy according to which dynamic mode the car is in. Beyond 4000rpm, it starts to come alive, and well before it gets to the red part of the digital rev counter, it is pulling with a vigour that seems more supercar than sports car. Chevrolet claims a 2.9sec 0-60mph time, a figure that feels, if anything, pessimistic. Z06 buyers have further choices to make. The biggest is between the standard Targa-style roof, with a single lift-out panel, or the cleverer but 45kg-heavier convertible, which uses a power-retractable hard-top. Both cars have the same torsional rigidity, although the convertible also lacks its sibling's glass engine cover. A hardcore Z07 pack brings stiffer suspension settings – the standard Z06 is already 30% firmer than the basic Corvette – plus carbon-ceramic brakes and track-spec Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres. Buyers can also choose an aero package, which brings a raised rear wing and takes peak downforce to 330kg, plus the stand-alone option of carbonfibre wheels to save an other 5kg per corner. Although the Z06 is firmer than the regular C8, it isn’t too firm. Granted, my test route in Michigan consisted of some of the roads the car was developed on – a point made to me by a Vanishing Point encounter with a disguised Z06 prototype going the other way. But in the gentlest Tour dynamic setting, it is still compliant enough for road use, and even moving up to Sport didn’t turn it excessively harsh. Steering is high geared and very direct, with only minimal inputs required in all but the tightest corners. Which is probably just as well, given the awkward shape of the squared-off steering wheel, and the fact that the top and bottom of the rim are made from slippery carbonfibre. While I didn’t get to experience the Z06 on a track, the steering felt set up for high-load circuit work. Similarly, real-world loadings gave no chance to push beyond the massive adhesion generated by the tyres. The car I drove was on the road-friendly Pilot Sport 4S tyres rather than the Cups, but on dry Tarmac, grip was huge. A full 61% of the Z06’s static mass sits over the rear wheels and this imbalance is obvious in the way the car aggressively tightens its cornering line when the throttle is eased, but the near impossibility of engendering understeer at road speeds means there isn’t really any need to do this. With limits so high, though, I suspect that when the Z06 does let go, it will do so suddenly. But it doesn’t feel snappy or skittish, and even at road speeds, the chance to listen to the engine’s zinging soundtrack feels properly special. With the exhaust in its loudest switchable mode, it seems effectively unsilenced and could certainly never pass Europe’s stringent drive-by noise regulations. As for habitability, the Z06 benefits from the same impressively spacious cabin as the basic Corvette, certainly by sports car standards. Unlike many track-focused specials, it doesn’t feel harsh or compromised on the road. Note also that in addition to selectable settings for the adaptive dampers, engine map, exhaust note and steering feel, the Z06 has adjustable ‘brake feel’, which alters the weight and level of resistance of the pedal. I struggle to imagine anyone wanting anything but the firmest setting in a car so potent. The Z06 is also a performance bargain compared with the wider American market, although it is certain that dealers will be screwing substantial ‘market adjustment’ hikes onto the official list price. The most basic version starts at $109,295 before taxes in the US, barely more than an entry-level Porsche 911, and even putting a full set of dynamic options onto the most expensive 3LZ Convertible won’t take it past $150,000. For perspective, that’s $75,000 less than the starting price for the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Sadly, despite the precedent set by the right-hand-drive basic Corvette, there are no plans to brings the Z06 to Europe. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/chevrolet/corvette-z06/first-drives/chevrolet-corvette-z06-first-drive
  4. Russian President Vladimir Putin has accused Ukraine of attacking the bridge to Russian-annexed Crimea, saying that it was an "act of terrorism". President Putin said Ukraine's intelligence forces had aimed to destroy a critically important piece of Russia's civil infrastructure. He was speaking at a meeting with the head of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin. Officials say three people were killed in the blast on the bridge. Who - or what - blew up the Crimean bridge? Excitement and fear in Ukraine after bridge blast The victims were in a nearby car when a lorry blew up, Russian officials say. "There is no doubt, this is an act of terrorism aimed at destroying Russia's critical civilian infrastructure," Mr Putin said. "Its authors, perpetrators and beneficiaries are the security services of Ukraine." Mr Bastrykin said that citizens of Russia and some foreign states had aided preparations for the attack. According to Mr Bastrykin, investigators have established that the truck which they say blew up travelled through Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, North Ossetia and Krasnodar Territory. He has ordered an investigation into the incident which brought down sections of the roadway. Ukrainian officials have not indicated that their forces were behind the attack. On Saturday, President Volodymyr Zelensky acknowledged the incident in his nightly address, saying: "Today was not a bad day and mostly sunny on our state's territory." "Unfortunately, it was cloudy in Crimea. Although it was also warm," he added. And a Ukrainian MP told the BBC that regardless of who was responsible for the attack, this was a "big Ukrainian victory and very severe and hard loss for Russia". "The bridge is not destroyed but damaged, but the image of Putin is destroyed, that is the most important thing," Oleksiy Goncharenko said. Russian authorities partially re-opened the roadway part of the bridge hours after the attack but for light traffic only. The railway part of the bridge - where oil tankers caught fire - has also reopened. The 19km (12-mile) bridge, the longest in Europe, is an important supply route for Russian forces fighting in Ukraine. Russia has used the bridge to move military equipment, ammunition, and personnel from Russia to battlefields in southern Ukraine. It was opened by Mr Putin in 2018, four years after Russia's annexation of Crimea. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63195504

  9. Cecilia López, Minister of Agriculture, confessed this Friday morning that she was already on her way to the Casa de Nariño when the Palace called her to inform her to return because President Gustavo Petro was not there. "The president will maintain a private agenda in Cartagena today," reported the president's communications team. José Félix Lafourie, president of Fedegán, was also arriving at the signing of the agreement, which the parties have described as "historic", when he received the same message. (In context: Signing of the land purchase agreement between the Government and Fedegán is postponed) The concern among the large group of journalists who were going to attend what the Government itself shows as one of its greatest achievements in these two months that it has been in power became evident: Where is the president? Why was he not ready to sign a document of such magnitude? "Schedule problems," he replied. This is not the first time that President Petro's absence has been justified in this way. The question, then, is natural: Who manages President Petro's agenda? (You can read: Ministry of the Interior responds to criticism: "They will not be able to divide the Government") This is a matter of importance for two elementary reasons: The time of an incumbent president is priceless. Every second is a very valuable asset to carry out its public policies for the benefit of the country. And the other is the time of others. Call themselves ranchers, taxi drivers, members of the military leadership, mayors. They are all active components of society that deserve to be addressed when previously cited. In these two months, several of the president's interlocutors have received the laconic message of a rescheduling of meetings when "the agenda allows it." In some cases, these are people who have come from distant places and with enormous efforts. “It is a lack of respect regardless of the fact that he is the president of all Colombians, it is a lack of respect towards the 1,100 mayors of the country, where we take our own resources, from the municipalities to come to the city of Bogotá, we believed that we were going to find a dialogue,” said, for example, at the time Jhon Jairo Uribe, mayor of Remedios, Antioquia, the day that Petro stood them up. "How does that do us?" Asked the taxi drivers who had gone a couple of weeks ago to an appointment with the head of state that he did not arrive at, in Corferias, in Bogotá. The commanders of the military leadership, out of the logical respect they owe to their Supreme Commander, refrained from giving an opinion the day he failed to recognize him. Not so the bankers who arrived late, three and a half hours after the scheduled closing of the Asobancaria congress in Cartagena, who left evidence of his annoyance. Of course, the discomfort of the presidents and bankers was as loud as that of generals, colonels, captains and family members who made up the list of more than 200 people who were waiting for him at the troop recognition ceremony. Plus, naturally, the hundreds of soldiers. (You can read: The rebellion of the congressmen of the Historical Pact against ministers) Petro breaches his own order This situation contrasts with Petro's own directive made on Monday, August 8, when he addressed his first Council of Ministers at the Casa de Nariño: "Time is a scarce commodity," he told them. “We have little time, we have to make the most of the time, we don't have time. We cannot fail,” he demanded. His most loyal followers have also been victims of these breaches. Indeed, the trusted team of the then president-elect informed the press that Petro would be the main speaker at the meeting of the Historical Pact bench that met at the Plaza Mayor Events Center in Medellín, on Monday 11 and Tuesday 12. July, where he was going to draw the line of the government that the community would assume. At that time, it was announced that the president-elect would be via streaming, a natural alternative when he was on a short vacation after the exhausting campaign. He didn't show up. Trip to Mexico? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs publishes advice: see the documents you must have Tax reform: what follows after its approval in the first debate? "Basically we had an agenda crossing," said Alfonso Prada, now Minister of the Interior, at the time. “We are finishing off the junction, the agenda is obviously congested. We are deploying all the physical capacity we have to meet the commitments that are being presented.” This absence coincided with the disclosure of what is now his official photograph as president, taken in Caño Cristales, Serranía de La Macarena, in the department of Meta . Some of his critics reproached and interpreted that Petro had not been with the mayors for having crossed his agenda with photographic production. This version was denied by Petro's close circle. Not even his own ministers have been spared from the delays and breaches. There was also a Tuesday when the Casa de Nariño announced for 8:30 a.m. m., the possession of two of his ministers. Then they informed that the act would be at 3:00 p.m. Later that would be the following Wednesday at 8.00 a.m. At the act, Petro arrived late and it was almost around 9:00 a.m. As it also arrived late in Cartagena, Bolívar, to the businessmen who were waiting for them to close the 7th Colombian Business Congress (CEC) of ANDI. And the previous weekend, when the entire government team met precisely to draw a line of action on the management of the Government, was late. https://www.eltiempo.com/politica/gobierno/petro-incumple-otra-cita-quien-le-maneja-la-agenda-al-presidente-708120

  10. The epaulet shark breaks all the rules for marine predators in Australia: it learns to walk before it learns to swim. Barely a meter long, the epaulet shark roams calmly over Australian coral reefs. Unlike its other cousins, with whom the ecosystem cohabits, the species developed feet and fins at the same time. For this reason, according to a study conducted recently by Florida Atlantic University, the animal learns to walk before slipping between ocean currents. Also known by its scientific name, Hemiscyllium ocellatum, it was listed as a benthic shark. The researchers were amazed to realize that the epaulet shark is capable of walking on reefs, but also out of the water. To do this, the authors write in a statement, they move "their body and pushing with their paddle-shaped fins." The epaulet shark is found south of the Great Barrier Reef of Australia. In addition to its impressive ability to walk under and out of water, researchers at Florida Atlantic University discovered that it is capable of withstanding extreme environmental conditions. Not only does it adapt to the high temperatures of the Australian oceans —increasingly higher, due to the climate crisis—, but it also endures long periods without oxygen: "SURPRISINGLY, THIS WALKING SHARK IS ABLE TO SURVIVE COMPLETE ANOXIA (NO OXYGEN) FOR TWO HOURS WITHOUT ADVERSE EFFECTS AND AT A MUCH HIGHER TEMPERATURE THAN MOST OTHER HYPOXIA-TOLERANT ANIMALS," THE RESEARCHERS EXPLAIN. And what's more: the epaulette shark learns to walk before it learns to swim. From very early stages of its development, it uses its flat fins to propel itself over coral and sand. Thus, they manage to enter the corals to hunt worms, crustaceans and small fish. However, scientists say that this adaptability has limits. While it is true that they are versatile in terms of how much oxygen they need to live, the changing conditions of coral reefs in Australia threaten their survival. There is still no evidence to support that its physiognomy will be able to withstand the devastation of its natural habitat. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/descubren-un-extrano-tiburon-australiano-con-patas-que-puede-caminar/

  11. Growing Chinese premium EV brand Nio will make its UK debut late next year, company founder and CEO William Li said at Nio’s launch in Germany on Friday. The brand will launch with its mid-sized Nio ET5 saloon, a rival to the Tesla Model 3, and other models more suited in size to the UK market, Li said. “I think smaller cars like the ET5 and another scheduled for production,” Li told Autocar, without naming the additional model. Nio will also introduce battery swap stations in the UK to allow owners to change their batteries in around five minutes, giving the brand a useful selling point if it can install a decent-sized network. The brand has identified a site in London for its signature Nio House plus-sized showroom, which will act as both a showcase for its models and a general hang-out space, following the patten of Nio Houses in China, Norway and Germany. Nio is currently hiring staff for its UK launch, including a brand manager and a sales manager. The overall UK general manager was hired “three days ago”, Li said. No name has been released. Cars will be exclusively leased, either for a fixed period or via a more flexible subscription model that will enable customers to hand back their vehicles with as little as a month’s notice. The subscription model has proven successful for Chinese brand Lynk&Co, owned by Geely, in establishing itself in select mainstream European markets. Nio launched its brand globally in 2016 at an event in London but it restricted sales initially to China. The brand’s move to Europe last year started in Norway, where it also built the first battery swap station. Friday’s launch in Berlin marks the brand’s expansion not just in Germany but also Sweden, the Netherlands and Denmark. Deliveries of the ET7 large saloon car will begin in October in Germany, with the EL7 large SUV and ET5 following in March. No prices have been disclosed yet. The EL7 was renamed from the ES7 in China following a lawsuit from Audi, which argued that Nio’s naming strategy for its SUVs using the ES lettering sounded too similar to its S-badged sports range, which are also coupled with numbers for cars such as the Audi S7 and Audi S8. The Nio models for Germany and subsequent European markets are all built on the brand’s new NT2 platform, which combines high-tech software and sensors to give the cars the ability to drive autonomously in certain scenarios, the brand said. No timeframe was given for homologating the cars for low-speed highway hands-free driving in Germany to follow the Mercedes S-Class and Mercedes EQS. The ET7 features a lidar sensor unit prominently above the windscreen, flanked by two cameras. Nio had sold just under a quarter of a million vehicles as of 30 September, the brand said, the majority in China. Sales in Norway stood at around 1000, it said. Li said Nio is in talks with other brands about using the company’s battery swap platform and has even built prototypes for some car makers, although he didn't name them. The company offers a range of battery sizes that fit into the same underfloor space to allow customers to swap in the size they need. An ultra-long-range 155kWh version is expected to be added to the battery swap stations in China in the first quarter next year, the company said. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-nio-et5-electric-saloon-confirmed-uk-2023

  12. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky says Russian officials have begun to "prepare their society" for the possible use of nuclear weapons, but added he does not believe Russia is ready to use them. In an interview with the BBC, President Zelensky denied having urged strikes on Russia, claiming that an earlier remark had been mistranslated. "You must use preventive kicks," he said, referring to sanctions, "not attacks". In recent weeks, the Ukrainian army has recaptured large swathes of territory in a successful counter-offensive that has forced Russian troops to abandon long-held positions. In what Kyiv describes as Moscow's response to its defeats, President Vladimir Putin has incorporated four partially occupied regions of Ukraine. The annexations, widely dismissed as illegal, have raised fears of a possible escalation in the seven-month war. President Putin and other senior Russian officials have suggested that nuclear weapons - possibly smaller, tactical weapons - could be used to defend those areas, although Western officials say there has been no evidence Moscow is prepared to do so. Speaking in English at the president's office in Kyiv, President Zelensky said: "They begin to prepare their society. That's very dangerous. "They are not ready to do it, to use it. But they begin to communicate. They don't know whether they'll use or not use it. I think it's dangerous to even speak about it." Then, in Ukrainian, he said through a translator: "What we see is that Russia's people in power like life and thus I think the risk of using nuclear weapons is not that definite as some experts say, because they understand that there is no turning back after using it, not only the history of their country, but themselves as personalities." However, he denied having called for strikes on Russia during an online event on Thursday, saying the Ukrainian word he had used had been misunderstood. The initial comment was denounced by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov as "an appeal to start yet another world war", while Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said it demonstrated why Russia was right to launch its operation in Ukraine. "After that translation," President Zelensky said, "they [the Russians] did their way, how it's useful for them, and began to retranslate it in other directions." The interview happened hours after US President Joe Biden said that the Russian threat to use nuclear weapons had brought the world closer to "Armageddon" than at any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis during the Cold War. President Zelensky said action was needed now, as Russia's threats were a "risk for the whole planet". Moscow, he claimed, had "made a step already" by occupying the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Europe's largest nuclear station which President Putin is trying to turn into Russian property. Around 500 Russian troops were at the plant, he said, although the Ukrainian staff still operate it. "The world can stop urgently the actions of Russian occupiers," President Zelensky said. "The world can implement the sanction package in such cases and do everything to make them leave the nuclear power plant." Empowered by sophisticated Western-supplied weapons, the Ukrainian army has made significant advances in the east and the south, reclaiming towns and villages even in areas the Kremlin claims are now part of Russia. President Zelensky said Russian forces were putting up a "good enough fight", but that Ukraine had received weapons - "I won't say we have enough now" - and soldiers were motivated to push forward. The Russian military's setbacks, a major embarrassment for President Putin, have sparked unusual criticism of the country's military. Amid the losses, President Putin announced the mobilisation of hundreds of thousands of reservists, which led to rare anti-war protests in Russia and to a huge exodus of military-age men. President Zelensky urged Russians to "fight for your body, rights and soul", saying: "Those mobilised kids now, they come with nothing. Without guns or armour. They are being thrown here like cannon fodder... If they want to be kebabs - fine, let them come. But if they are people after all and think that this is their lives, they have to fight. "Everything Putin is afraid of, and it's not the nuclear hit, he is afraid of his community," he said. He's afraid of his people. Because only those people are capable of replacing him nowadays. Take away his power. Give it to someone else." Asked whether President Putin could survive in an eventual Ukrainian win in the war, he said: "I don't care." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63173443

  18. The dollar continued to rise in Colombia this Thursday and during the day it was traded on average at 4,626 pesos, practically the same as the maximum day in history that was July 12 of this year, when it was traded during that day at 4,627 pesos on average . On the morning of this Thursday, trading reached 4,657 pesos, very close to the maximum in all history, which was 4,663 pesos, that same July 12. The average rate this Thursday ended up being 77 pesos more than the representative rate of the current market for the day, which was located at 4,548.89 pesos. (You can also read: Tax: unions warn of the business impact that the reform would have) According to the Set-Fx platform, the currency opened the day with a price of 4,585 pesos and the maximum price reached at 8:48 was 4,657.4 pesos. In the previous day, the foreign currency also registered a strong rise and erased the losses that it had added at the start of the week between Monday and Tuesday. (Of interest: Capital tax raised by Petro defunds the government itself: experts). The rise of the currency this Thursday is recorded a day after President Gustavo Petro said that raising the rates of the Bank of the Republic does not serve to contain inflation. According to the Colombian president, if interest rates are being raised to prevent capital flight, a transitory tax could be imposed on these flows. On the morning of this Thursday, in the midst of the rise in the dollar, Juan David Ballén, director of Analysis and Strategy of the brokerage firm Casa de Bolsa, said that with the dollar's all-time highs on the day, the peso "accumulates and leads the devaluation of the currencies of the region with more than 3 percent. Suggesting to carry out capital controls is a bad idea, it will generate a greater devaluation, inflation, rates and decrease". (Also: The new articles that were included in the tax reform). On Wednesday, Mauricio Cárdenas, former Minister of Finance, had written on his Twitter account, in relation to this issue, that the Issuer's board "does not have the power to adopt taxes, what it does is make capital inflows or outflows more expensive with measures exchange rates, such as compulsory deposits”. But he also pointed out that a measure in this sense “would be suicide. The stampede of capital would generate more devaluation and more inflation”. For his part, Munir Jalil, chief economist for the Andean Region of BTG Pactual, said: "Putting some limitation on the free movement of capital would affect not only the financing of the Government today, but also in the future, since these investors are going to prefer other countries that do not have these restrictions and allow them to enter and leave freely.” (Keep reading: This is how the Petro tax will hit gas prices and reserves). According to Petro's comments, to contain inflation it is better "the tax reform for large fortunes, the fertilizer subsidy, the agrarian reform, food in poor neighborhoods and the change in the energy rate formula." https://www.eltiempo.com/economia/sectores/dolar-en-colombia-hoy-6-de-octubre-707819
