  2. President Gustavo Petro presents a picture of "acute non-obstructive bronchitis" and receives outpatient treatment. This was reported in a statement by the Presidency this Friday afternoon after the president was examined by his personal physician, Dr. Jairo H. Roa Buitrago. "The specialist recommended that he avoid temperature changes and speak in public for a long time," says the official statement. The Health Unit of EL TIEMPO explains that, in essence, this picture corresponds to an inflammation of the main airways (bronchi) that carry air to the lungs, and that although they can be narrowed, in the case of President Petro, According to the medical report, this function is not significantly obstructed. These pictures are also accompanied by cough, phlegm and consequently affectation of the larynx, where the vocal cords are located. This is the reason why the treating physician recommended to the Head of State not to speak for long periods of time while he is suffering from this disease. It is important to clarify that the treatment given to the President is outpatient, so it is inferred that his situation is not extremely serious. Lastly, the Health Unit mentions that although there are several causes of acute bronchitis, in Petro's case the medical report does not specifically determine any of them, but it is presumed that the condition may correspond -as occurs with the majority - to a viral condition that, if uncomplicated, has a self-limiting course. And, meanwhile, the symptoms must be treated, resting and, as Dr. Roa states, avoiding changes in temperature and speaking in public. The medical part of the Presidency is known after Petro canceled his agenda this Friday in Cartagena. On Thursday he had already suspended his activities and news of his evolution was awaited to determine if he could fulfill the commitments he had. From the Presidency they reported earlier that he would only have a meeting this Friday with the bench of peace seats and the Commons party at 7:00 p.m. today at the Casa de Nariño. https://www.eltiempo.com/salud/salud-de-gustavo-petro-el-presidente-tiene-bronquitis-aguda-703071
  3. 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/
  4. Dacia has previewed a whole series of new features it hopes to offer on its future models on a bold new concept car that’s set to star at next month’s Paris motor show. The Dacia Manifesto concept is a rugged off-road buggy, similar in size and style to the Ariel Nomad. While the two-seater is not a direct preview for any future model, it is a statement of intent of how the brand sees itself evolving, as well as a technological showcase for the brand in what it calls a “lab for ideas” - hence the Manifesto name. Dacia design director David Durand said the new concept was a “super compact open air vehicle blended in with nature. It’s a great way to brainstorm ideas without the pressure of production”. The new concept car coincides with a new brand mission for Dacia to switch from being “simple and affordable to more appealing and desirable, with cars chosen as people want them”, according to CEO Denis Le Vot, “but still chosen for being essential”. Dacia’s advanced design chief Romain Gauvin told Autocar that work on the concept only began in January. The Manifesto is also a response to Dacia’s growing appeal among those who enjoy outdoor pursuits and active lifestyles. It has no windows, doors or even a windscreen, and Dacia claims it is excellent to drive off-road thanks to four-wheel drive, large wheels and tyres, a raised ride height and “a body built to withstand the toughest terrain”. Airless tyres are one feature on the Manifesto that Dacia is actively known to be working on for production. The 850mm tyres are puncture proof and designed to last the life of the vehicle. The car is completely waterproof, allowing the interior to be hosed out when it gets dirty. The seat coverings are also removable, and once removed they can be used as sleeping bags. The concept car incorporates Dacia’s ‘Bring-Your-Own-Device’ approach to infotainment, where the computing power and technology is provided by a user’s smartphone. The Manifesto introduces Dacia’s ‘YouClip’, a feature that will be offered in its future models starting with next year’s next-generation Duster. It is essentially a universal mounting point, which can house a whole host of accessories from cup holders to phone mounts. In time, it could even replace cup holders altogether, according to Gauvin. The concept car is of no specified drive type, with Gauvin describing it as ‘multifuel’, able to be powered by anything from petrol and LPG to hybrid and electric. It is extremely lightweight, with a claimed weight of 720kg when fitted with the heaviest of its potential drivetrains, an all-electric one. Dacia says that the Manifesto is constructed from lightweight, sustainable materials, among them parts of the chassis and bodywork. This is made from a new type of plastic called Starkle, which features 20% recycled and already processed polypropylene to give the panels a flecked look. It will also be used on future models starting with the Duster for exterior cladding. This lightweight approach is absolutely key for Dacia in order to keep its pricing down, and is a strategy the firm will continue to employ in the future. The lighter its cars, the less emissions they produce, and the lower the cost can be due to them only having what equipment is needed. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/dacia-manifesto-concept-featherweight-all-terrain-buggy
  5. In a pine forest at the edge of Izyum the stench of death filled the air as a mass exhumation got under way. The earth is giving up its secrets. Ukrainian officials believe war crimes have been committed, which they are determined to document. Around 100 Ukrainian emergency service workers wearing blue plastic coverings dug into the earth, opening makeshift graves. They are trying to establish the cause of death of hundreds of people buried in a forest at the edge of the city, recently liberated by advancing Ukrainian forces. Izyum, invaded in April, was used by Russia as a key military hub to supply its forces from the east. The exhumation was conducted mostly in silence, as police and prosecutors looked on. One officer put his head in his hands. Another walked away. Kharkiv regional prosecutor Olexander Ilyenkov says there is no doubt war crimes have been committed here. "In the first grave, there is a civilian who has a rope over her neck. So we see the traces of torture," he told the BBC. He said almost everyone died because of Russian soldiers. "Some of them were killed, some were tortured, some were killed because of Russian Federation air and artillery strikes." Ukraine was determined to show this disturbing sight to the world. Convoys of international journalists were brought to watch on. The burial ground - beside an existing cemetery - contains row after row of graves, marked by crude wooden crosses. Names were written on a few, but most were marked only by a number. The burials here were carried out under the orders of the Russians when they were in control. Ukrainian police say there are 445 new graves at the site, but some contain more than one body. It's unclear how all of them died. Many are said to be civilians, women and children among them. Prosecutors say some were killed by Russian shelling and others were victims of a Russian airstrike on an apartment block in March, in which 47 people were killed. Officials say one grave contained around 20 soldiers, some with their hands bound and one with a noose around his neck. The body of a man in military uniform was exhumed and zipped into a white body bag. As the graves were opened there were sporadic explosions in the distance as the security forces worked to de-mine the area. 72-year-old Hryhorii came to the burial site today to see the grave of his wife, Ludmilla. He told us she was killed on 7 March during heavy shelling in Izyum. He first had to bury her in the yard of their home, then she was reburied in August. Now her remains will be disturbed once again. It's only now, since the Russians have been pushed out, that Ukraine can carry out detailed investigations here, and can determine how many victims the occupiers left behind. A woman who lived opposite the forest told us Russians troops had kept locals away from the cemetery. A local man named Maxim appeared at the burial site, asking journalists to record his account of torture. He said he was detained by the Russians in early September, and released by Ukrainian forces when they arrived in Izyum last Saturday (10 September). He showed us the marks on his wrists caused by handcuffs, and said he had been subjected to electric shocks. A senior advisor to Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky told the BBC evidence of torture was found in some areas recently retaken by Ukrainian forces. "We saw wildly frightened people who were kept without light, without food, without water, and without the right to justice," Mykhailo Podolyak said. Kharkiv prosecutor Mr Ilyenkov said several similar burial sites had been found in areas recently retaken by Ukrainian forces. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-62931224

  13. A blockade due to demonstrations has been registered this Thursday afternoon in Bogotá. A group of protesters holds a sit-in on Avenida Calle 26, in front of the National University. Although, around 5 p.m. m. it was reported that the service had been rehabilitated at the Ciudad Universitaria and Quinta Paredes stations, around 5:30 p.m. it was confirmed that the affectation returned to the system. "The news about the Calle 26 trunk remains. At the moment we are going to start counterflow. For this reason, the Ciudad Universitaria station is no longer operating," tweeted TransMilenio. Other mobility news 4:48 PM m.: Criminalistics work ends on the North Highway The criminalistics work on the North Highway with 200th Street was completed, where a motorcyclist died in a road accident.

  14. Agile, stealthy and intelligent, this is the Bengal tiger, the solitary feline that survives poaching in the jungles of India One of the most imposing and majestic animals on the planet is the Bengal tiger. In the culture of India these felines are part of the sacred representations. The deities of Hinduism, Shiva and Durga, are normally associated with these tigers. In fact, the last one is represented on one of them. The Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) is a large feline and one of the predators par excellence. He is characterized by being calculating and agile in his attacks. It is also distinguished by its strength, which allows it to bring down large prey. It lives mainly in the tropical forests of India and Bangladesh, although there are also large po[CENSORED]tions in Nepal. This is what we know about the Bengal tiger. The nature of the Bengal tiger The Bengal tiger is known to be one of the largest cats. Approximately, the largest males reach 3 meters, while the females hardly exceed 2.5 meters. With regard to weight, this is usually also very variable, however, it can be said that males, in adulthood, can reach 190 kilograms, and females 140. It may interest you: They find the fangs of the first saber-toothed tiger in history One of the great attractions of the Bengal tiger is its colors. Normally, this feline is located by its orange fur with black stripes. However, there are also white ones, due to a genetic mutation. On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that this animal has an average lifespan of between 10 and 12 years. In the case of females, the expectation can reach 16. Some of the captive specimens even reach 20 years. Another characteristic of Bengal tigers is that they are solitary. It is during periods of heat that they seek out others of their kind, otherwise most of their activities are carried out alone. Despite this, the young need their mother until they are 2 years old, because they are in training, learning to survive. According to Naturalista, the heat of these animals can be altered by weather conditions. Reproduction is one of the few acts that break the solitude of the Bengal tiger. Gestation, meanwhile, takes between 93 and 112 days. The average number of pups per birth is 2 to 3. It may interest you: After almost a hundred years extinct, they plan to bring the Tasmanian tiger back to life The Bengal tiger, also known as the Royal Bengal tiger or Indian tiger, is a highly territorial mammal; These animals mark large areas with their scent to prevent other rivals from approaching. In addition, it must be taken into account that it is a hunter, mainly nocturnal, who waits for the indicated times to go out for his prey. This feline is agile, but acts with stealth and intelligence. In the clutches of this tiger fall from peacocks to Asian buffalo. Other animals that are part of their diet are Indian bison, wild boar, tapir, deer, antelope and monkeys. This feline is a large carnivore that is not intimidated by the size of its prey. An endangered habitat The Bengal tiger has two forms of threat: hunters and urban growth. Both circumstances put the survival of the species at risk. Hunting is motivated by different reasons: there are people who seek to dissect these animals or extract their fur. However, they are also killed under the argument that they represent a danger to humans. The great demographic growth of the countries where the Bengal tiger lives is a factor that continues to reduce the number of its species. This fact gives reason to felines to migrate to other lands. Unfortunately, not finding enough food is one of the consequences of this change. Although not as critically endangered as other species, the Bengal tiger is already on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list. The World Wide Fund for Nature is one of the organizations that has been in favor of protecting this animal, working to stop poaching. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/tigre-de-bengala-el-gran-felino-de-las-selvas-de-la-india/
  15. Ford has unwrapped its new seventh-generation Ford Mustang, which could be the final model in its 58-year history. Launched at a huge outdoor event following the opening of the reborn Detroit motor show, the Mustang will hit the UK next year. Ford has unwrapped its new seventh-generation Ford Mustang, which could be the final model in its 58-year history. Launched at a huge outdoor event following the opening of the reborn Detroit motor show, the Mustang will hit the UK next year. This means the new Ford Mustang (codenamed S650) is more of a comprehensive reskin of the current car and that it will miss out not only on long-rumoured electrified powertrains but also the American brand's next-generation autonomous driving aids. Under the bonnet, both the 2.3-litre twin-scroll turbocharged Ecoboost four-cylinder and 5.0-litre 'Coyote' V8 are carried over, although the former has been comprehensively updated with a new bore and stroke design and a fresh turbo. The naturally aspirated V8, meanwhile, gets less dramatic updates, but does come with a new dual cold-air intake. Both engines are claimed to push out more power and torque, while being more efficient. Like before, a six-speed manual will be offered, but only on the most powerful Mustang GT with the 5.0-litre V8. An updated version of the 10-speed torque-converter automatic is optional in the V8 but is standard for the 2.3-litre Ecoboost. Performance figures have yet to be released, but the fastest V8 version is tipped to launch from 0-62mph in around 4.0sec and top out at more than 170mph. For the first time, Ford's designers have provided strong visual cues to differentiate the V8 version from the Ecoboost. Of the two, it's the four-cylinder turbo that gets less shouty styling, including a new grille inspired by the original 1964 Mustang flanked by a pair of slimmer headlights, featuring new tri-bar LED daylight-running lights. The GT, meanwhile, gets more aggressive cues such as a gloss black grille surround plus a pair of nostrils within the grille that feed air to the new intakes. Other changes are a new lower front bumper and a large bonnet extractor that not only vents hot air, but also channels high-pressure air from the front air intakes to reduce lift over the front axle. At the rear, the V8 receives a larger diffuser and quad tailpipes in place of the turbo four's dual pipes. Within the cabin, the base models get twin screens, but mid-grade and above trims gain a new 'continuous' screen combining a 12.3in digital instrument cluster and a larger, 13.2in infotainment screen running Ford's latest Sync 4 software. Capable of being updated over the air, this new system enables a huge level of customisation that Ford hopes – along with the car's styling – will attract younger buyers. One party piece is the ability to swap the modern gauge graphics for a digital recreation of the 'Fox body' (1979-1993) Mustang's clocks. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-2023-ford-mustang-keeps-atmo-v8-and-manual-gearbox
  16. Vladimir Putin has acknowledged China's "concern" over Ukraine, in his first face-to-face talks with President Xi Jinping since the Russian invasion. But speaking in Uzbekistan, Mr Putin also thanked China for its "balanced position" - and said US "attempts to create a unipolar world" would fail. Mr Xi said China was willing to work together with Russia as "great powers". China hasn't endorsed Russia's invasion but has grown trade and other ties with Moscow since it was launched. The two leaders' meeting on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Samarkand comes at a crucial point in the Ukraine war, as Russian troops lose ground in parts of the country. "We highly value the balanced position of our Chinese friends when it comes to the Ukraine crisis," Mr Putin told Mr Xi, on only his second foray abroad since February's invasion. Revealing that China had "questions and concern" about the situation in Ukraine, he said he understood. "During today's meeting, we will of course explain our position," Mr Putin said. The invasion has plunged Moscow into its worst crisis with the West since the Cold War and has sent global food and energy prices soaring. It also poses a huge challenge for China - whose relations with the West have nosedived in recent years over issues including human rights and the future of Taiwan. Mr Putin and Mr Xi have met dozens of times over the years but their latest talks received particular scrutiny. Their growing relationship - which they characterise as a bulwark to Western dominance - signifies a major shift in the world order following the demise of the Soviet Union in 1991. The roles are reversed now, with China the dominant partner, having risen to become an economic superpower. "Putin is getting more out of it than Xi - Russia is quite isolated internationally," Professor Emeritus Rosemary Foot, a senior research fellow in international relations at Oxford University, told the BBC. "So it's important to show that China is a supportive partner, not an ally but certainly a supportive actor. There is a close relationship." What does China want from the Ukraine crisis? The Ukraine crisis is a major challenge for China For Mr Xi, who described Mr Putin as "an old friend", the optics of the meeting were also significant. He is seeking a historic third term at a Communist Party congress next month, and his visit to Central Asia is the first time he has left China since the start of the Covid pandemic. His trip comes amid fresh lockdowns in China, where his "zero Covid" policy is still in place. While the rest of the world has opened up, Beijing continues to shut down entire cities and provinces every time cases flare up. China and Russia have long sought to position the SCO, founded in 2001 with four ex-Soviet Central Asian nations, as an alternative to Western multilateral groups. India, Pakistan and Iran are also members. During their last meeting in February - when Mr Putin travelled to Beijing for the Winter Olympics at Mr Xi's invitation - the two sought to demonstrate their close ties, famously declaring they shared a friendship with "no limits". Days later Russia invaded Ukraine, prompting international condemnation and sanctions, while putting the China-Russia relationship under an intense spotlight. Beijing has urged an end to hostilities and stressed the importance of national sovereignty. But it has also refused to call the war an invasion, as Russia refers to it as a "special military operation". In recent weeks China has sent troops to take part in joint military exercises with Russia, and sent senior officials to meet Russian counterparts. It has also come to Russia's economic aid as Western sanctions were imposed. This relationship has been a win-win for both countries. With Europe reducing its dependency on Russian oil and gas, China has increased its purchases, which it is reportedly getting at discounted rates. Last month Beijing also agreed to pay for gas in Russian roubles and Chinese yuan, giving Moscow a much-needed alternative to dollars as a foreign reserve, while furthering China's interests in boosting the yuan as an international currency. But China appears to have drawn a line. US intelligence says Moscow is so desperate for weapons, it has turned to Iran and even North Korea for supplies. It has also apparently approached China - but there has been no indication so far that Beijing has agreed. Some experts believe that despite the rosy picture of comradeship, Mr Xi will want to maintain some distance between him and Mr Putin for several reasons. "It would be spectacularly inept to choose the moment of maximum Russian tactical retreat in Ukraine to lean into Moscow even harder than Beijing already has," said Evan Feigenbaum, vice-president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, in a recent commentary. Another concern for Mr Xi is that former Soviet Central Asian countries, four of which are members of the SCO, do not support Russia's invasion of Ukraine - which also used to be part of the USSR. "[Mr Xi] must be very aware that Central Asia is unhappy and nervous about what's going on," Prof Foot told the BBC. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-62912892
