We spoke with Ford Performance's Mark Rushbrook and Multimatic's Larry Holt about the joint development between the Mustang GT3 race car and upcoming GTD road car. When Ford CEO Jim Farley decided to build a road version of the Mustang GT3 race car, he didn't chat about it to the public. Instead, he formed a skunkworks team in closed-door meetings so secretive that they included non-disclosure agreements for everyone involved. As the idea for the Mustang GTD started to take shape, the secret meetings progressed to an unmarked aluminum shed while Mustang Dark Horse chassis were being quietly brought to Multimatic, the manufacturing goliath in charge of both GT3 and GTD efforts. The first time the public caught wind of the GTD wouldn't come until much later. On March 21, 2023, Jim Farley posted a video to X (formerly known as Twitter), showing factory driver Joey Hand testing the Mustang GT3 race car around Sebring. That same day he would respond to his own tweet with a rhetorical "Should we make a road version?" Of course, by the time Farley made those posts, the GTD was already well into development; we just hadn't seen it yet. Any Track, Any Weekend In an effort to learn a bit more about the GTD, we accepted Ford's recent invitation to tour the Multimatic facility in Charlotte, North Carolina, where the Mustang GT3 race cars are built—and then on to the Rolex 24 at Daytona to see them in action. We looked forward to the chance to get some insight into why Ford has put the time, money, and effort into both projects. We posed that question to Mark Rushbrook, global director of Ford Performance Motorsports, and his answer was simple: With Mustang sales growing in Europe and the 60th anniversary of the nameplate coming up, Ford wants to build a connection with fans around the world. That connection comes from having Mustangs racing at any track around the world on any weekend. It also includes getting Ford involved in GT3 racing for the first time since the departure of the GT following the 2019 season. As for the GTD—according to Larry Holt (the mad scientist in charge of engineering and motorsport operations for Multimatic)—well, that's all Jim Farley's idea. Production-Car Roots Like any other GT3 race car, the Mustang GT3 starts its life on the production line. The race car is derived directly from the Dark Horse road car; Holt and his team at Multimatic take what they learn from the GT3 car and reverse-engineer it to fit the roadgoing GTD. "From road to race, and race to road," explained Rushbrook. The relationship between the two cars is apparent the moment you lay eyes on them. From the widened front fenders to the twin air vents in the hood to the gooseneck wing mounts at the back of the cars, the similarities are prolific. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a46597866/ford-mustang-gt3-test-bed-for-gtd/

Conor Bradley scored his first Liverpool goal on a dream night for the 20-year-old at Anfield. Photograph: John Powell/Liverpool FC/Getty Images Jürgen Klopp has rebuilt a formidable Liverpool unit with less time and money than Chelsea took to squander £1bn on a collection of individuals under Todd Boehly. Contrasting approaches and rewards collided at Anfield where a homegrown 20‑year‑old full‑back, Conor Bradley, dismantled Mauricio Pochettino’s strangers on a statement night for the Premier League leaders. Bradley was inspired, the Kop singing his name throughout, as Klopp’s team toyed with their Carabao Cup final opponents a month before their Wembley date. Liverpool can count down the days until they meet again. Chelsea will be already dreading the reunion. The visitors were angered by the referee Paul Tierney’s failure to award them two penalties – Liverpool had no complaints with Klopp’s bete noire for a change – but the simple truth is they were outfought, outmanoeuvred and outclassed all night. “They were better than us from the first action,” Pochettino said. “They were better than us in all areas.” Klopp’s faith in the Liverpool squad he will leave behind was vindicated once again in a high-octane, high-calibre performance. They refused to allow Chelsea time to play through a relentless press and peppered Djordje Petrovic’s goal almost on sight. Bradley became the first Northern Ireland international to score for the club since Sammy Smyth 70 years ago and he took his assist tally to five in four games. Darwin Núñez struck the woodwork four times, once from a penalty, and took 11 shots at goal without scoring. Chelsea won their first corner in stoppage time. Klopp’s decision to retain Bradley in place of the fit-again Trent Alexander-Arnold was another example of his managerial shrewdness. It was a huge show of faith that elevated the young defender’s game beyond the heights he reached during the deputy captain’s recent absence. Bradley began a superb night’s work when crafting the first chance for Núñez, a man on a mission to score from anywhere, but Petrovic read the striker’s attempted lob. Petrovic alone kept the first‑half scoreline semi‑respectable. He tipped another Núñez first‑time effort, a blast from Alexis Mac Allister’s threaded pass, on to his crossbar and a left‑foot drive from the Uruguay international on to a post. He denied Liverpool again when tipping away a daisy-cutter from Curtis Jones. But the visiting keeper was let down badly by his central defenders when the hosts inevitably took the lead. Conor Bradley whips up the Anfield crowd after scoring for Liverpool against Chelsea. Photograph: Peter Byrne/PA Ben Chilwell was also at fault when losing the ball weakly to Bradley. The defender swapped passes with Jones and found Diogo Jota in space outside the Chelsea area. The striker weaved between non-existent challenges from Thiago Silva and Benoît Badiashile – John Terry, watching from the away end, must have been sickened – and poked a close‑range finish beyond Petrovic. The goal stood following a VAR review for a possible handball by Jota when Silva struck a clearance against him. Chelsea had their first penalty appeal dismissed when Conor Gallagher went down under a challenge from Virgil van Dijk. There was contact from the Liverpool captain’s arm and knee but Gallagher collapsed far too easily. Liverpool extended their lead courtesy of their marauding right‑back’s first goal for the club. Luis Díaz spun away from Enzo Fernández to send Bradley sprinting clear down the right. The youngster showed excellent composure to sweep a low finish beyond Petrovic and inside the far corner. VAR again stalled Anfield’s celebrations as it reviewed a possible foul in the build-up by Jota on Chilwell, who argued he would have occupied Bradley’s space otherwise, before allowing the goalscorer to savour his moment after all. It should have been three before the break. Tierney ruled in Liverpool’s favour again when Badiashile stood on Jota’s foot inside the area. The referee had no hesitation in pointing to the spot but Núñez struck a post with Petrovic diving the opposite way. Dominik Szoboszlai scores Liverpool’s third goal against Chelsea. Photograph: John Powell/Liverpool FC/Getty Images Pochettino made his feelings clear on Chelsea’s anaemic first half. The manager made three substitutions at the interval and should have been rewarded immediately when one, Malo Gusto, broke clear and centred for another, Mykhailo Mudryk. Unmarked and 10 yards out, Mudryk skied high into the Anfield Road stand. Bradley’s evening went from strength to strength. He made it five assists in four outings when receiving Van Dijk’s cross-field ball and sprinting clear of Badiashile, now shifted out to left-back in place of Chilwell. At full pelt he delivered a perfect cross into the penalty area and Dominik Szoboszlai soared above the Chelsea defence to head home. Christopher Nkunku injected much-needed menace into the Chelsea attack and pulled a goal back when steering Carney Chukwuemeka’s ball into the bottom corner. He also had a penalty claim rejected after a kick in the heel from Van Dijk. Núñez hit the woodwork yet again with a thumping header from an Andy Robertson cross before setting up the fourth for Díaz with an inviting cross to the back post. Liverpool are on a roll heading into their encounter with Arsenal on Sunday. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/jan/31/liverpool-chelsea-premier-league-match-report

Overhauling your whole life on 1 January is a noble idea, but slow and steady is the real way to succeed Many of us want to enjoy a healthier new year. Photograph: Mattia/Stocksy United It’s a vicious circle: the end of December sees lots of us making all sorts of outlandish claims as to how we’re going to transform our health in the new year. The plan is meticulously followed for a few days, but it soon gets difficult and we fall off the wagon. Then we experience the guilt-inducing recriminations, making us feel even worse than before we started. It’s a predictable path, says Augusta Gray, a registered nutritionist and content lead at Holland & Barrett, and it feeds into a common toxic behavioural mentality known as “all or nothing”. “If you tend to go on the yo-yo of all-or-nothing, you’re probably going into that festive period overindulging,” she says. “Having that black and white way of thinking can be a really unhealthy relationship with your mind and body.” But it doesn’t have to be this way. Studies show that by making small, incremental steps, we’re more likely to change our behaviour – and stick to new, healthier habits – rather than making grand statements that inevitably fall flat. Here are some simple steps towards slow and steady change to better health in 2024: Gut health is good health Gut health is a great place to start with a little lifestyle shift, says Gray, as what we eat affects the microbiome of trillions of bacteria in our gastrointestinal tract and, in turn, this may impact our immune system and skin. Emerging research also suggests that the microbiota in our gut may influence our moods and appetite (pdf). “The main thing is to ensure you’re eating a really diverse range of plants and plant-based products,” she says. “One study from 2018 found that the groups who reported eating 30 different fruits and veg a week had a more diverse gut microbiota. Think about a wide variety of fruit and vegetables, nuts, seeds, wholegrains and herbs. Also consider prebiotic fibres, which are found in plants such as chicory root, onion, garlic and asparagus. They’re really good options to make sure you’re getting the right bacteria to feed the probiotics – the probiotics are anything fermented: kefir, kimchi, sauerkraut and kombucha.” Check in with experts As everybody’s health needs will differ, speaking to an expert at Holland & Barrett can help set you up with the right tools for a healthy lifestyle change. How about a 45-minute online consultation with a qualified nutritionist – available for free this new year (usually £45), and pre-booked through the wellness retail’s website? Or you could seek advice on gut-health supplements or take a look at the new food range that has Plant Points on the labelling to help you tot up your 30-plants-a-week goal. For any serious symptoms or specific medical issues, please see a GP or your local medicinal practitioner. Start small by making sure you’re eating five portions of fruits and vegetables a day. Photograph: Mental Art + Design/Stocksy United Start small, and incremental It’s fine to start even smaller, though. Positioning it behaviourally as adding something to your lifestyle rather than removing something, can make it feel like a little win. “If you’re continuing to eat the same way you were at Christmas,” says Gray, “focus on making sure you’re eating five portions of fruits and vegetables a day or adding in more colours, or having one or two more greens than normal. That’s an easy way to approach it, because that way you’re crowding in the good rather than cutting out the bad.” Incremental steps are another idea to make it sustainable, she adds, but if this is too much, then just focus on one relatively simple task every day, such as drinking lots of water, sleeping well, or getting out and about and walking. “If you’re consistent with that for three or four weeks, then you can continue to build on that.” How to stay motivated “Motivation is kind of the crux of it all,” says Gray. We need to recognise the difference between motivation and willpower, she explains. “Willpower is more about the ability to resist, and motivation is about the desire to act. Our brains are literally wired and set up to create shortcuts because our brains don’t want to think too much and then we create habits which tend to be bad.” Internal v external motivations There are a lot of studies that say internal motivation is going to make you more consistent than external motivation, so sit down and work out why you want to make a change. “If we think about internal motivation for changing the way we eat being ‘because it makes me feel good’ or ‘because I want to live a longer, happier, healthier life’ versus the external ‘because I want to look better/how I think society wants me to’ or ‘the doctor told me I had to’, you’re more likely to be motivated for the long-term and have better outcomes. Writing them out on Post-it notes, explaining why you want to do this in the first place, really checking in, and then sticking these around your house can help, too.” Try sticking up Post-it notes to remind you of your internal motivations for changing your eating habits. Photograph: Studio Marmellata/Stocksy United Make new dopamine-boosting cues If you really want to succeed, trick your brain by setting up new pleasure cues. One brain game you can play, Gray says, is based on studies that show that repeatedly rewarding ourselves in ways that don’t inherently feel like rewards can fool us into believing they are. “If you’re in the habit of having chocolate at 3pm in the afternoon, the ‘trigger’ is the time of day. Going to the kitchen and grabbing a snack is the ‘behaviour’ and you ‘reward’ yourself by satisfying your cravings for something sweet, or taking a break from work. To change to an alternative behaviour, you could have some healthy snacks to hand, go for a walk, or grab your yoga mat. That way you’re satisfying your craving for a snack or getting a break from work – but you’ll need to perform these steps over and over again to make them stick. “You can also intercept ‘boring’ habits with an internal celebration to help associate it with a rewarding feeling or dopamine release.” Be kind to yourself if and when you fail If sticking to a healthy lifestyle was so easy, we’d all be doing it. So accept that you might have a few bad days, but be kind to yourself about it. “A lot of our internal dialogue is so tough on ourselves,” says Gray. “And things like social media and comparison feed into that, so remove it or reduce it if that’s a trigger to feeling bad. “We’re so hard on ourselves, and I can guarantee you no one is thinking the things you’re thinking about yourself. It’s really important to have that slight out-of-body moment and think: ‘I would never speak to my friend like this.’ Tomorrow is another day, so do what you can to start again.” For a science-backed gut-health plan that’s tailored to you, book a free 45-minute online appointment with one of our qualified, professional nutritionists at hollandandbarrett.com.

Environmentalists say Vulcan South mine would be an ‘absolute disaster’ for animals including koalas, greater gliders and glossy black cockatoos Hundreds of hectares of habitat that is home to endangered and vulnerable native animals could be cleared if a new Bowen Basin mine is granted final approval by the federal environment minister. Photograph: Alamy Environmentalists are urging the federal government to block the development of a central Queensland coalmine that would allow hundreds of hectares of endangered koala habitat to be cleared. The Queensland government approved the Vulcan South coalmine in the Bowen Basin earlier this month without requiring an environmental impact statement (EIS). But the project still needs approval from the federal environment minister, Tanya Plibersek, to go ahead. If Vitrinite is granted final approval for the mine, the company will be licensed to clear 770 hectares of koala habitat, 39 hectares of greater glider habitat, 36 hectares of vulnerable glossy black cockatoo habitat, and 1,024 hectares of vulnerable squatter pigeon habitat. The federal government listed the koala as endangered in 2022 after a decline in its numbers sparked by land clearing and bushfires. More than 90,000 hectares of Queensland koala habitat was cleared in a single year for beef production, according to 2022 data. The mine is one of several applications that has been able to sidestep the EIS requirement as it is under the 2m tonne annual threshold. Vitrinite will mine 1.95m tonnes of coal each year or up to 13.5m tonnes over a nine-year period. The company has already been granted approval for an adjacent mine, Vulcan, in March 2022 that will also produce 1.95m tonnes each year. Dr Coral Rowston, the director of Environmental Advocacy in Central Queensland, called on Plibersek to “do better” than the Queensland government and block Vulcan South’s approval. “The approval of a climate-wrecking coalmine that plans to wipe out more than 300 Gabba-sized football stadiums of koala habitat is an absolute disaster for Queensland’s iconic species,” Rowston said. “Federal environment minister, Tanya Plibersek, can and must ... make good on her commitment to no new extinctions by refusing the Vulcan South coalmine and protecting this important area of central Queensland koala habitat. Federal environment minister Tanya Plibersek with a glossy black cockatoo in a courtyard of Parliament House in Canberra on 7 September 2023. Photograph: Mike Bowers/The Guardian “This coalmine will also place other threatened species who call the local area home, like the greater glider and glossy black cockatoo, under even more pressure.” Dave Copeman, the director of Queensland Conservation Council, said the mine should not be approved, from either a climate or biodiversity perspective. “This mine has been approved through a loophole in the Queensland Environmental Protection Act that environmental groups have been calling on the Queensland government to close for years,” he said. “At a federal level, this referral is with minister Plibersek, and we are calling on the minister to reject the [application]. It would result in unacceptable damage to threatened species habitat, including the endangered koala and greater glider.” Plibersek’s office said the minister could not legally comment on decisions before her. A departmental spokesperson said the Vulcan South coalmine proposal will undergo “a robust, scientific assessment of its potential impacts on matters protected under the [Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act]. “It will only be approved if appropriate avoidance, mitigation, and monitoring measures, to avoid unacceptable impacts on matters protected under the EPBC Act, are in place. These measures may be incorporated into enforceable conditions of approval.” Vulcan South is the first new coalmine approved by the Queensland government since Steven Miles became premier. Whitehaven’s Winchester South coalmine – which would produce up to 17m tonnes each year – is also expected to be approved after it received the coordinator general’s sign-off last year. Miles last year addressed one of the environment movement’s most pressing concerns within a week of being sworn in by banning new oil and gas developments in the Lake Eyre Basin. He also used his first speech as Queensland premier to more than double the state’s emissions reduction target to 75% by 2035 – making it one of the most ambitious in the country. Guardian Australia contacted the Queensland premier for comment but an environment department spokesperson responded to the enquiry. The spokesperson said every proposed project is assessed “on a case-by-case basis” and undergoes “a rigorous environmental assessment to ensure the project meets legislative standards … regardless of whether an EIS is required or not”. “This includes actions taken to mitigate impacts on protected species such as koalas,” they said. They said additional conditions were included in the environmental authority application for the Vulcan South project “to minimise impacts to threatened species habitat and to ensure the rehabilitation of all disturbed habitat… after the project is complete.” “The EA approval also requires the holder to develop and implement a greenhouse gas abatement plan based on the expected emissions that will be produced during the life of the project,” they said. Guardian Australia has contacted Vitrinite for comment. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/feb/01/vulcan-south-coalmine-queensland-koala-habitat-tanya-plibersek

Weeks after his ordeal, the trauma of living through nearly two hours of terror are still evident on this survivor. 'We'll see if anyone dares to throw stones at us now,' Bahaa recalls the Israeli officer telling him [Mosab Shawer/Al Jazeera] Dura, occupied West Bank – Bahaa el-Din Abu Ras, 36, is a bearded man with brown hair that has gone a little grey in the middle, he’s not sure when exactly, but thinks it was two weeks ago. Even though two weeks have passed since his ordeal, and despite being in his mobile shop surrounded by familiar items, he seems stressed to be retelling the tale of being used as a human shield to protect Israeli soldiers. On Monday, January 15, 2024, at 1:30pm, the Israeli army stormed Dura, south of Hebron, in about 10 military vehicles, stopping in the town’s downtown commercial area, near the Bahaa’s shop, and his ordeal began. Interrogation “The downtown is busy at midday, but the army stopped and started throwing tear gas bombs, quite heavily. We shut our door and as me and my coworkers were figuring out how to leave. Then a group of masked soldiers came to the door and told me to open up. He was speaking Arabic, so I asked him why they needed my shop, and he said they needed to check if I was selling surveillance drones. I said I wasn’t, but they went in and began searching. “We were outside, and I could hear the noise they were making in there, breaking things. The soldiers who were still outside asked me if I owned the shop and when I said yes, they laid into me. I was kicked, punched, verbally assaulted. They threw me face-down on the ground and attacked the two young guys who work with me, Musaab Shawamra, 25, and Mahmoud Hamdan, 17.” As this was happening, Bahaa continued, another group of soldiers came up and joined the others, now suddenly there were more than 20 soldiers inside his shop, one of whom turned out to be the commanding officer. “It was like an interrogation with me thrown on the ground in front of my own shop, being questioned. He went back to asking about surveillance drones – I said no again and, of course, they didn’t find anything in the shop but mobile phones and equipment to repair them. “The officer made them leave after they’d been searching for about half an hour, but wouldn’t let me get up until a soldier came and kicked me and told me and my guys to get up.” Intimidation Bahaa found himself marched into the street, where Palestinians were putting up the only resistance they had: throwing rocks at the heavily armed invading soldiers. The commanding officer sent Musaab and Mahmoud home and made Bahaa walk in front of him, saying, “You go in front of me, we’ll see if anyone dares to throw stones at us now.” The moments that ensued as he stood in the middle of the market area, shielding heavily armoured soldiers with his body, were beyond description, the father of four said. In the moments of terror, as bullets whizzed past his head and the sounds of shooting rang in his ears, he thought of 10-year-old Aseel, eight-year-old Bilal, Lin, 6, and little Shahm, just one-year-old, wondering if he would see them or his wife again. Even though he is surrounded by his familiar shop now, the trauma is still apparent on Bahaa’s face [Mosab Shawer/Al Jazeera] “So many questions went through my mind: Will I get to go back to my family? Will I be shot or would a rock hit me? Will I be arrested by these soldiers for whatever reason? When or how can I be released, in the middle of this warzone? “I saw so many Palestinians being shot by the Israeli soldiers. Ahed Emtair was shot then, too, a young mother. The soldiers using me kept moving me left and right, trying to keep me between them and the stones that were still being pelted at them, from every direction. “There was so much tear gas, it was so hard to breathe. I spent about an hour and a half like that, not sure when I would be killed and whether I would ever rest again. But throughout the whole thing, I kept reminding myself that what I was going through was nothing compared to what our steadfast people in Gaza were experiencing.” Intent Activist Imad Abu Hawash from the Palestinian Center for Human Rights, said using Palestinians as human shields is a policy Israel uses often in Palestinian territory, despite it being a crime prohibited by international law and the Geneva Convention and a violation of all norms. Indeed, rights groups have documented countless cases, with Defense for Children International – Palestine saying Israel had used five Palestinian children as human shields in the first half of 2023 alone. Heavily armed and prepared Israeli forces attacked the Jenin refugee camp for days on end in July, killing many Palestinians. During the attack, paramedic Hazem Masarwa says Israeli soldiers used him as a human shield [Majdi Mohammed/AP Photo] Hazem Masarwa, a 43-year-old volunteer with the Ibn Sina Ambulance Center in Jenin, told Al Jazeera how he and two colleagues were used the same way last year. On July 4, the Israeli army raided the Jenin refugee camp that it had been attacking for a few days, and confrontations with resisting Palestinians began. Hazem and his colleagues were headed to evacuate injured people from around the Abdullah Azzam Mosque when Israeli forces fired at the ambulance to make it stop, then ordered them out. “They used us three paramedics as human shields for more than half an hour, despite our official Palestinian paramedic uniforms. They were shooting from behind us, and the Palestinian gunmen were shooting back, what horrible, terrifying moments.” The prohibition on the use of unarmed civilian humans to protect fully equipped soldiers is clearly stated in the first additional protocol of the Geneve Convention of 1949, stating the matter explicitly and simply, Aseed al-Awawda, professor of constitutional law at Hebron University, said. Committing such acts opens up soldiers and officers to be tried and punished in the International Criminal Court if a request for prosecution is submitted. However, it remains to be seen if such legal action will be brought. https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2024/1/31/west-bank-human-shield-describes-100-breathless-minutes-held-by-israel

Kyiv had accused Moscow of being a ‘terrorist’ state and claimed it funded separatists in eastern Ukraine. A general view of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, Netherlands [File: Thilo Schmuelgen/Reuters] The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has rejected much of a case filed by Ukraine that accused Russia of funding separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine a decade ago, saying only that Moscow had failed to investigate alleged breaches. Kyiv had accused Moscow of being a “terrorist state” whose support for pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine was a harbinger of the full-fledged 2022 invasion. Ukraine also wanted Russia to compensate all civilians caught up in the conflict, as well as victims from Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, which was shot down over eastern Ukraine on July 17, 2014. The top United Nations court declined to rule specifically on alleged Russian responsibility for the shooting down of the plane. The ICJ tossed out most of Ukraine’s pleas, ruling only that Russia was “failing to take measures to investigate facts … regarding persons who have allegedly committed an offence”. The court added that only cash transfers could be considered as support for alleged “terrorist” groups under the terms of the international convention on terrorism financing. This “does not include the means used to commit acts of terrorism, including weapons or training camps”, the court ruled on Wednesday. “Consequently, the alleged supply of weapons to various armed groups operating in Ukraine … fall outside the material scope of the ICSFT” convention, the ICJ said. The 16-judge panel once again ordered Russia to investigate any plausible allegations of “terrorism” financing. ‘Russia trying to wipe us off the map’ Russia was also in the dock for alleged breaches of an international convention on racial discrimination due to its treatment of the Tatar minority and Ukrainian speakers in occupied Crimea. Here the court found that Russia had not taken sufficient measures to enable education in Ukrainian. During hearings on the case, Alexander Shulgin, Russia’s ambassador to the Netherlands, accused Ukraine of “blatant lies and false accusations … even to this court”. Top Ukrainian diplomat Anton Korynevych retorted that Russia was trying to “wipe us off the map”. “Beginning in 2014, Russia illegally occupied Crimea and then engaged in a campaign of cultural erasure, taking aim at ethnic Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars,” said Korynevych. On Friday, the ICJ will rule in another case in which Kyiv has accused Moscow of falsely applying the UN’s 1948 Genocide Convention to justify its February 24, 2022, invasion of Ukraine. The court’s judgements are final and without appeal but it has no way to enforce its rulings. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/1/31/icj-rejects-most-of-ukraines-terrorism-case-against-russia
