  6. Icolás Galindo died when he tried to swim to the side of the Rio Grande in Reynosa (Mexico), on the border with the United States. His family fights to repatriate the body. (Also read: Autopsy of the accused of abusing Hilary indicates that it was a homicide) They saw him submerge in the waters of the Rio Grande, a long body of water that flows south and southeast through Colorado and New Mexico until it reaches the city of El Paso, Texas. Nicolás Galindo was determined to fulfill the American dream. He was only 25 years old, he was an artist, a promising empirical tattoo artist, but in Bosa Piamonte, the neighborhood where he lived, he had not found the opportunities to get ahead. Of course, he was loved by his friends and relatives. They describe him as a humble, loving, loyal and honest person. He wanted to work hard to give his son everything he needed in life. Those who knew him say that when he came into his life, he was the greatest reason for wanting to be the best in his profession, he wanted to conquer the world with his works embodied in the skin that he considered a canvas. So it was that the American dream began to take shape in his head. In addition, tattooists saw in him enormous potential. His designs were highly sought after. Little by little he was collecting money until he managed to complete enough to be able to get to Mexico first and then to the United States. Satena will make his first flight to Venezuela this Wednesday, November 9 That trip that was consolidated on October 25, 2022 was a "Russian roulette" because Nicolás was going to cross the border as an illegal from Mexico, where supposedly a man would help him cross the border. The first days were hard but relatively calm because he worked in his trade in Mexico. He expressed to his family and friends that he was happy, after all, it was his first trip abroad. Everything changed after a few days; exactly on November 1, when he decided to start his trip to Monterrey (Mexico). He had no idea that he was so close to tragedy. There he met the coyote who was supposed to guide him to the other side of the border. He had to go through three checkpoints and at each one he was robbed of the little money he had. The threat was to pay to be able to continue with the trip. So it was that, finally, he arrived in Reynosa, on the border with the North American country. Nicolás and his friends sought to pass through a land route which was no longer in use, so they chose to seek the famous passage through the Rio Grande, feared by many. The last time the young man communicated with his parents was seven at night. He knew that he was about to take a great risk, he told them that they would have to swim to the other side of the river and asked them to pray for him. At 8 in the morning they called the young man's family to inform them of the tragedy that shortly after began to sound on the news: a migrant of Colombian origin had died after falling into the waters of the Rio Grande. This was reported by the Ministry of Public Security. Civil Protection personnel who mobilized by boat rescued the body of the young tattoo artist. He died in front of his traveling companions at about 1:30 in the afternoon. They saw him fight up to a certain point in the river until his forces did not reach him and he submerged himself in the brown waters. He had been the only one who decided to take the risk confident in his abilities as a swimmer. Through a call they informed his family of every detail. The American dream had vanished and a boy had been left without his father. As if the tragedy was not enough, several funeral homes began to call the young man's family in Bogotá to demand money in exchange for the delivery of the body and the legal documents to carry out the removal of the corpse. The bereaved family had no choice but to start making their own inquiries. The sum they have to get to repatriate the body is at least 35 million pesos to be able to travel and identify the lifeless body, sign the necessary papers and bring the body to Colombia to be able to say a religious farewell. The story of this young man has gone viral on social networks as many people have shown solidarity with the family. Others have made murals in his honor and his closest friends have edited videos with his pictures. They cannot believe that a young man with so much potential has died in such conditions. “We sympathize with the family of our friend, brother, partner: Nicolás, the cover in its entirety will be donated and delivered to his family, in order to bring our friend to Colombia,” says one of the publications. “Like all young people they have dreams and goals. My nephew had the American vision of having a different life, progressing to help his parents. But God's destiny and plans are different. Crossing the Rio Grande he drowned. This sad tragedy occurred at the height of the Reynosa Hidalgo international bridge," said Ómar Arango, the young man's uncle. His sister, Yuliana Galindo, has not been able to overcome this loss either. “When they told me that they had found the body, I couldn't stop crying. They told me that he had started swimming and that in the middle of the journey he drowned. Today everything that is collected is to be able to bring the body of my brother.” The Foreign Ministry told them that the costs of repatriating his body should be borne by the family. Other cases This is not the first person from Bogota to die trying to cross into the United States through the "hole." Juan Carlos Rivera also died on the long road through Mexicali, on February 23, to cross the United States border at any cost. In the same way as Nicolás did, before embarking on his journey through a desert territory, he sent a voice message to his older brother via WhatsApp: “I have mistrust of the man who takes me, he has made me change cars several times. ”. In fact, he left it practically abandoned in a desert area. Within 48 hours, the Colombian consulate in Los Angeles, United States, informed the family, via email, that he was dead. The medical examiner explained to the family that the man's body was found on the morning of Thursday, February 24, by border guards in Arizona. Juan Carlos, according to his brother John, was able to cross the first wall, but when he crossed the second, he fell and died instantly. The saddest thing is that given the lack of opportunities in Colombia, people continue to sell their lives to coyotes who care least about helping a migrant. https://www.eltiempo.com/bogota/joven-murio-ahogado-por-cumplir-sueno-americano-716128
  7. With a wingspan of more than a meter, the woolly bat is the largest chiropteran in Mexico. For the Mayans, he dominated the underworld with his bloody jaws. By spreading its wings, an average woolly bat reaches a wingspan of one meter. In fact, it is the largest bat species in Mexico. It has a sharp nose, wide ears – similar to those of rabbits – and small, perfectly round eyes. With this appearance, he inspired the most important creation stories of the Popol Vuh, the sacred Mayan scriptures. We suggest: They find the treasure of Tayasal, the last Mayan city that succumbed to the Spanish in Guatemala The 'killer' gods of the underworld Also known as 'false woolly vampires', the bat (Chrotopterus auritus), is a species native to Central and South America. As documented by the Naturalista platform, it is distributed “from southern Mexico to southern Brazil, Paraguay and northern Argentina“. In the Mayan worldview, these animals played a leading role in the creation of the world. When the Mayan twins Hunahpú and Ixbalanque made their journey through the Mayan underworld —the Xibalbá—, the god Camazotz tested them throughout the night. In the sacred writings, he was described as a man with the head and fangs of a bat. Just before dawn, Hunahpú was beheaded. Overwhelmed with grief, Xbalanque called the bats of Xibalbá and asked them for his favorite food. With it, he rebuilt the head of his brother. With the first rays of the sun, both were victorious and managed to beat Camazotz together. What do bats represent in the Mayan cosmovision? From this mythological story, according to historian Roberto Romero Sandoval of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, in the Popol Vuh "they were related to night, darkness and death". More than anything, explains the specialist, because the ancient Mayans saw how they fed on the blood of other animals. Even today, the bat abounds in the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve on the Yucatan Peninsula. They are commonly found in the caves of the protected natural area, as well as in the temples and abandoned ruins erected by the Mayans centuries ago. Unlike other bat species, woolly bats do not live in large groups. Rather, they inhabit the caves of Central and South America in small families, to ensure that they can protect each other. In general, they eat "lizards, large insects such as grasshoppers, birds and mice", documents the UNAM. Until now, no Mayan warriors have been recorded beheading, beyond the mythological plane. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/murcielago-lanudo-mitologia-maya/
  8. Audi has unveiled face-lifted versions of the E-tron and E-tron Sportback, bringing a longer range and more efficient battery. The models will also carry the Q8 nameplate to position them as the brand’s new flagship SUVs. As well as technical upgrades to their drivetrains, the two electric-powered SUVs receive a series of subtle exterior and interior styling changes. The line-up stays the same, offering 50, 55 and S models, the latter of which continues to develop 496bhp and up to 717lb ft of torque. Among the styling changes made to the three-year-old car is a new-look grille featuring Audi’s two-dimensional ring emblem and altered electronically controlled cooling ducts. It is set within a re-profiled bumper and is bookmarked by headlights with new functions, including an orientation light for country roads and a lane light with a direction indicator. At the rear, there are new tail-light graphics and a revised bumper. The German car maker has also added new spoilers within the underbody to smooth airflow around the wheels, helping to reduce drag coefficient by a factor of 0.2. Inside, Audi’s electric SUVs receive new recycled upholstery and trim options in a lightly revised cabin that also features changes to the multimedia interface (MMI). The system comes with MMI Navigation Plus as well as a so-called E-tron route planner as standard. The upgraded drivelines use a revised electric motor for a reduced current and lower power consumption under constant cruising conditions. As before, both SUVs’ 50 and 55 models use two asynchronous motors (one at the front, one at the rear) with the more potent S variant continuing with a third additional motor at the rear. Power and torque for the 50 models increase to 335bhp and 489lb ft but stay the same for the 55, which offers 396bhp and 489lb ft. Further changes are focused on the battery, which continues to operate at 400V. Audi says the adoption of more advanced cells and a new battery management system increases the battery pack’s energy density by up to 20%. A revised stacking process, with altered electrode placement, is also said to increase overall energy efficiency. With its reworked 89kWh lithium ion battery, the E-tron 50 and E-tron Sportback 50 achieve a provisional range on the WLTP test cycle of 289 miles and 311 miles respectively. The larger 104kWh unit in the E-tron 55 and E-tron Sportback 55 is claimed to provide respective ranges of 360 miles and 373 miles. The same battery in the S provides a range of 311 miles. Charging can be achieved at up to 11kW on an AC system and either 150kW (E-tron 50 and E-tron Sportback 50) or 170kW on a DC system. Audi claims charging times (from a 10% to 80% state of charge) of 28 minutes for the 89kWh battery and 31 minutes for the 104kWh battery under optimal conditions. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/2023-audi-q8-e-tron-facelift-gets-range-boost-and-name-change
  9. Control of US Congress still hangs in the balance a day after the midterm elections, dampening Republican hopes of a "wave" of victories. As vote counts continue, Democrats won a crucial Senate seat in Pennsylvania while other key battlegrounds remain too close to call. Republicans need to gain just one Senate seat to take control. Republicans are still favoured to win the House, although Democrats are putting up resistance in some races. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives and a third of the Senate were up for grabs. Though President Joe Biden, a Democrat, is not on the ballot, the midterms will shape the fate of his agenda. Follow live updates on midterms Analysis: Who is winning the night so far? Trump warns DeSantis against presidential bid Republicans can still pick up the five seats they need to win the House, but the party has so far failed to land a knockout blow as Democrats notch victories in highly competitive districts. In the battle for the Senate, left-wing Democrat John Fetterman - who has been recovering from a stroke - is projected by CBS to have beaten Trump-backed celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz in potentially pivotal Pennsylvania. Another critical Senate race, between Democrat Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker in Georgia, is on a knife-edge, and could even end up in a run-off if neither candidate gets more than 50% of the vote. The results of other key Senate races in Wisconsin, Arizona and Nevada were also still in play. Which party holds sway in the upper chamber of Congress may not be known for days, or even weeks. Elections for state governors also took place in several states. Republicans were expected to hold on to governors' mansions in the key states of Texas, Florida and Georgia. Florida's Ron DeSantis and Texas's Greg Abbott are future possible Republican presidential contenders. Mr Abbott has consigned Democratic challenger Beto O'Rourke to his third campaign defeat in the past four years. The Democratic candidate in Georgia, Stacey Abrams, conceded the race to the Republican Governor Brian Kemp. But in New York and Michigan, Democrats were projected to see off unexpectedly stiff Republican challenges in governors' races. And the bitterly fought race for the governor's mansion in Arizona - in which Republican Kari Lake had appeared to have the edge over Democrat Katie Hobbs - has been rated as leaning Democrat by CBS, based on incomplete results. A handful of trailblazers emerged in other projections: In Maryland, Democrat Wes Moore is set to become the third African American ever elected as governor In Florida, 25-year-old Democrat Maxwell Frost is on course to become the first Gen Z member of Congress Markwayne Mullin, an Oklahoma Republican and member of the Cherokee nation, is poised to become the fourth Native American ever elected to the US Senate The US is set for its first openly lesbian woman elected as governor, with Democrat Maura Healey to become the top official in Massachusetts Maryland became the 20th state to legalise recreational marijuana, with similar ballot measures put to the vote on Tuesday in Arkansas, Missouri, North Dakota and South Dakota Exit polls have suggested the main issues for voters were inflation and abortion. Despite leveraging wafer-thin congressional majorities to lower prescription drug prices, expand clean energy and revamp US infrastructure, Mr Biden's po[CENSORED]rity has taken a pummelling amid the worst inflation in four decades. But Republicans had their own political vulnerability on the issue of abortion following the conservative-dominated Supreme Court's decision this year to roll back a US constitutional right to the procedure. The ruling energised liberal voters around the country, raising Democratic hopes they might defy the historical political gravity that typically weighs on a governing party in the midterms. On Tuesday, voters in Vermont, California and Michigan decided to enshrine abortion rights in their state constitutions, preventing any future bid by the legislature to introduce restrictions. Kentucky was deciding in a ballot measure whether to rule out protections for abortion. According to exit polls by the BBC's US partner CBS News, abortion was the top issue for Democratic voters, while Republicans and independents rated inflation as their top issue.

  16. The Peace Commissioner, Danilo Rueda, in an interview with EL TIEMPO, on October 9, did not rule out that the military were at the central dialogue table that is going to start with the ELN. It may interest you: The 40 achievements, which according to Senator Bolívar, Petro has achieved in 90 days However, this Sunday government sources began to rule out that possibility. For now, President Gustavo Petro is still evaluating the names of those who will be part of the official dialogue team with the ELN, but everything indicates that for now active members of the Armed Forces are ruled out. And although it had been proposed that the negotiations with that guerrilla would begin at the beginning of November, technical and protocol aspects are still being reviewed to formally begin the dialogues. What is clear is that for now the military will not be at the table as main negotiators, but it is not ruled out that they will be part of the so-called technical tables. It must be remembered that in the negotiations with the FARC some generals were seated. The Government's designated negotiators will be announced in the coming days, to the extent that the modifications to Law 418, which gives the Executive the tools to initiate dialogue, have already been sanctioned. In addition: Iván Cepeda affirms that dissidents and 'Iván Márquez' will have to show will https://www.eltiempo.com/politica/proceso-de-paz/eln-no-habra-militares-en-mesa-de-dialogo-con-esa-guerrilla-715697
  17. Spider monkeys are leaving their thousand-year-old treetop homes for sedentary lives on the ground. It is common that when we think of spider monkeys (also called northern muriqui monkeys), we imagine furry creatures swinging on the tops of trees; jumping from one side to another and taking food from the branches. Although this species used to spend its entire life on the heights, an alarming change has taken place in recent decades: the monkeys are coming down to make their lives on the ground. We suggest: They capture chimpanzees digging wells in the jungle to filter clean water in Africa A life without predators Contrary to what it might seem, the loss of predators of the species has led to its movement towards land. Not only are they no longer in danger, but they find it unnecessary to climb the trees that surround them. Those who used to spend about 0.05 of their life on the ground now spend 20 times more time away from heights. The change is alarming because the phenomenon has increased in the last forty years, when evolutionary changes of this magnitude could take centuries. “CURRENT CHANGE IS HAPPENING AT SUPERSONIC SPEED, SEVEN MILLION YEARS AT THE CURRENT RATE THERE IS AN ABYSS,” DECLARES SALVADOR MOYÀ, ICREA RESEARCHER AT THE MIQUEL CRUSAFONT INSTITUT CATALÀ DE PALEONTOLOGIA The role of the climate crisis in the lives of spider monkeys The new practices of this species are not due exclusively to the fact that it is less hunted. The changes, which according to some experts could be passing generation after generation, are also due to the fact that the trees are increasingly spaced, making it necessary to descend from the tops to be able to move to a different tree. The loss of forest density is one of the clear effects of excessive logging on natural habitats. Likewise, for these arboreal primates it is increasingly difficult to find food in the upper parts of their ecosystem, so they go down to the ground in search of something that can satisfy their appetite. Whereas before their diet consisted only of the most tender leaves and stems, they now search the ground for insects and even take vegetables from nearby human crops. According to experts on the subject, the effects of this change could be devastating. “THERE ARE TWO POSSIBILITIES, THAT THEY ADAPT TO A MORE TERRESTRIAL WAY OF LIFE OR THAT THEY SIMPLY EXTINCT. THE MOST LIKELY IS THAT, AS IT IS SUCH AN INSTANTANEOUS CHANGE, IT WILL END IN A CATASTROPHIC EVENT,” MOYÀ EXPLAINS. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/los-monos-arana-estan-abandonando-las-copas-de-los-arboles-a-causa-del-calor-extremo/
  18. The world of small volume restomods is pretty big business these days. Numerous companies and engineering firms are turning their hands to spicing up a classic recipe with some modern ingredients, many using the evergreen Porsche 911 as their canvas. Yet there are some that take this process even further, such as RML with its Short Wheelbase. More of a homage than a true update of an old-timer, this eye-catching creation uses some fairly new Ferrari oily bits, but is essentially a bespoke creation that happens to have a passing resemblance to something from the Sixties (a Ferrari 250 SWB, not that the Italian brand will endorse such a thing). We’ve already driven the car in prototype form, but now we've got the chance to sample a near showroom-ready version of the £1.6 million creation. Yes, that’s right - £1.6 million. That’s clearly a lot of cash, but the RML goes someway to justifying that big ticket sticker price with those gloriously [CENSORED]ceous looks that are formed in carbon fibre and covered in lustrously thick paint - in terms of finish the Short Wheelbase (let’s call it the SWB for, ahem, short) looks the part, even if the faux spoked wheels won’t be to all tastes. Inside, the car has moved on from the pre-prod car we drove. There’s a full set of analogue dials now, while the infotainment system is no in place, gliding up and out of its hiding place ahead of the open gate gearshift. It’s set a little low for ease-of-use, but frankly catching up on your latest Spotify playlist will be the last thing you’ll want to listen to once you’re on the move. Under the beautifully-formed and appropriately power-bulged bonnet is the 479bhp 5.5-litre V12 from the Ferrari 550, the car that also donates its steel backbone chassis, suspension and brakes. Rebuilt and blue-printed, the engine’s stable of prancing ponies are as healthy as when new, pulling with the deep chested relentlessness that only a large naturally aspirated unit can, its responses to your right foot instant and beautifully proportionate. The bespoke four-exit exhaust gives the unit its full voice too, the 12-cylinder unit singing and crackling from baritone to glorious tenor as it spins around to 7000rpm. It’s not slow either, firing the RML down straights with real intent (it clocked a 4.8 second 0-60mph on our timing gear), although the creamy smooth, linear delivery means it doesn’t feel as fast as today’s whizz-bang turbocharged tearaways, which have been digitally tuned to give kidney-kicking responses at the merest touch of right pedal - you really have squeeze the RML's long travel accelerator to the floor to unleash its ultimate potential. It’s helped along by the six-speed transaxle transmission that click-clacks through its gate, bringing back happy memories of the days before seamless-shift twin-clutch transmissions. You need to be deliberate and precise, but once the unit’s oil is warmed through it’s a joy to use, especially as it is matched to pedals that are perfectly spaced and weighted for grin-inducing, blipped throttle heel-and-toe down changes. This old school approach extends to the chassis, but in a good way. The 550’s double wishbone suspension is retained, but RML adds its own anti-roll bars, springs and multi-way Ohlins adjustable dampers. In its default road setting, the 250 is compliant but with just enough control. Potholes and sharp imperfections send a jolt through the structure, while very occasionally the car will bottom out through severe compressions, but the rest of the time the RML keeps things on a supple but even keel. The steering is quick and meatily weighted with just enough feel through the gorgeous, thin-rimmed wheel, and with a relatively short wheelbase (the clue’s in the name), the RML turns-in keenly and accurately. With all that torque from the V12, it’s easy to trim your line on the throttle, while the well-controlled roll from the relatively soft suspension helps give the SWB a predictable and forgiving balance. There is traction control but no ESP, so the RML's uses good old-fashioned feedback and progressiveness to let you know where the limit is, making for a very user-friendly on-limit behaviour. When you do want to slow everything down, the 550-sourced brakes feature a firm pedal and reassuring bite. With the dampers given a few extra clicks of stiffness for the circuit, the RML feels as engaging and adjustable on the road, but there’s a little extra bite to the turn-in and a fraction more composure when really pressing on. It’s not a hard-edged track car by any stretch, but it’s hugely entertaining, its relatively modest limits and throttle adjustability allowing you to indulge your Sixties sports car racing fantasies as you can choose your angle attack from entry to exit as you balance any slide on the steering and throttle. That said, the closest most SWBs will come to a circuit is when they are parked in the paddock, having provided stylish, quick and effortless transport to their deep-pocketed owner’s dedicated track day toy. Despite its eye-watering cost (and let's not forget that an original 250 SWB could set you back anything up to £60 million and would likely never be used), this is any everyday GT car that’s as comfortable picking apart a series of corners as it is spearing across continents to luxurious summer or winter retreats. There are still some rough edges (the interior trim needs to be finessed for full production, as do the noisy seals for the windows), but RML insist fixes have already been signed off and ready to go. Either way, the SWB remains a wonderfully characterful and hugely compelling addition to the world of bespoke build driver’s machines. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/rml/short-wheelbase
  19. A fisherman who was one of the first responders at the site of Sunday's plane crash which killed 19 people in Tanzania's Lake Victoria, has described how he tried to save the pilots stuck in the cockpit and how he nearly lost his life trying to rescue them. Majaliwa Jackson has been officially declared a hero, awarded 1 million Tanzanian shillings ($430; £370), and offered a job in the fire and rescue brigade for his efforts. Speaking to the BBC from his hospital bed in the lakeside town of Bukoba before the government announcement, Mr Jackson said he panicked as he saw the passenger plane approach from the wrong direction, before plunging into the lake. He rushed to the scene with three fellow fishermen and helped to open the rear door by smashing it with a rowing oar which helped passengers seated towards the rear of the plane to be rescued. Mr Jackson said he then moved to the front and dived into the water. He and one of the pilots then communicated with each other by making signs through the cockpit window. "He directed me to break the window screen. I emerged from the water and asked airport security, who had arrived, if they have any tools that we can use to smash the screen. "They gave me an axe, but I was stopped by a man with a public announcement speaker from going down and smashing the screen. He said they were already in communication with the pilots and there was no water leakage in the cockpit," Mr Jackson said. He added that after being stopped he "dived back and waved goodbye to the pilot". But the pilot then indicated that he still wanted to be rescued. "He pointed out the cockpit emergency door to me. I swam back up and took a rope and tied it to the door and we tried to pull it with other boats, but the rope broke and hit me in the face and knocked me unconscious. The next thing I know I was here at the hospital," Mr Jackson said. Both pilots are among the 19 confirmed fatalities after the plane - operated by Precision Air, Tanzania's largest private airline - crashed near the shore of the lake. Of the 43 people on board there were 24 survivors, according to Precision Air. Mourners on Monday paid tribute to the 19 victims at a service held at the local football stadium in Bukoba. Speaking at the service, Tanzania's Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa said the government would cover the cost of the funerals. Earlier, he said an extensive investigation would be carried to establish the cause of the crash. The plane left the commercial capital Dar es Salaam on Sunday and made a scheduled stop at Mwanza before it crashed at around 08.50 local time (05:50 GMT) as it was approaching Bukoba airport. The airport has been closed until further notice. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-63540823
