  1. Nick movie: Obstacle Course Collab 3 (hosted by YeonAnims) Time: Hyun's Dojo Community Netflix / Amazon / HBO: N/A Duration of the movie: 6 minutes - 27sec Trailer:
  2. The US has about 50,000 public charging stations for electric vehicles, compared to an estimated 145,000 retail locations to purchase fuel for a gas-powered car. That’s the prime source of the dreaded charging anxiety — the worry that you could run out of power in the middle of a trip. Not only are current and would-be EV drivers worried about whether they can find charging, they’re also concerned charging infrastructure might not work. More than 20% of EV drivers in the US said they have pulled up to a charging station and been unable to charge their vehicle due to equipment malfunction, according to a study from J.D. Power, a data analytics company.A slew of startups are attempting to solve this problem by developing mobile chargers, from clunky metal boxes on wheels to sleek robots ready to prowl parking lots. While startups are seeing an initial wave of interest from vehicle fleets — which often park where charging infrastructure is unavailable — the technology may become more widespread for everyday drivers in the future.The charging network currently being built out across the US “is the backbone” for drivers ”to feel confident that they can use an electric vehicle to go long distances,” said Alan Jenn, assistant professor at the Institute of Transportation Studies at the University of California, Davis. “Mobile chargers offer a slightly different, slightly nuanced sort of charging experience, and these things are going to find a home somewhere.” EV manufacturer Lightning eMotors has developed a mobile charger called Lightning Mobile, which weighs a whopping 9,900 pounds (4,500 kilograms) and costs more than $300,000. Not exactly what one might consider “portable,” the unit functions more like a generator that can be rolled up anywhere charging infrastructure is lacking, including remote locations, event spaces and fleet depots. Up to four vehicles can plug in at a time. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-04/these-electric-vehicle-chargers-will-come-to-you
  3. Jos Buttler has stressed his desire to remain captain in both white-ball formats after a Ben Stokes-inspired win over the Netherlands hauled England from the foot of the World Cup table. Raiding 108 from 78 balls, Stokes ensured a mid-innings wobble did not end with a repeat of some of the harrowing scenes witnessed during this failed title defence. England, up to seventh in the group thanks to an improved net run rate, have put hopes of a Champions Trophy berth for 2025 back in their own hands at least. Jos Buttler’s itinerary reveals what is wrong with England – and cricket Read more Rob Key, England’s director of men’s cricket, is set to join the touring party in Kolkata before Saturday’s final fixture against Pakistan and establish what has gone so badly wrong. With two squads to be selected for the ODI and T20 tour of the Caribbean next month, Buttler says he is keen to lead a potential reboot. “Yeah, I’d like to,” said Buttler, when asked whether he wanted to both play and captain the two limited-overs teams in their next assignment. “I know Rob Key arrives into India so, yeah, we can have some good conversations with him and the coach [Matthew Mott] and everyone and make a plan for that tour. But I’d like to.” On his side’s second win, which owed plenty to the sheer will of Stokes and a calm 51 from Chris Woakes, a relieved Buttler said: “Any time you need someone to stand up with the team under pressure, [Stokes] has had a history of always doing that. We’re very lucky to have him in the team and I thought his innings today was exceptional.” Key will still need to look Buttler in the eye and decide whether the strains of leadership are now compromising the batter. Having departed for just five in the 160-run win in Pune, Buttler now has one innings before the team’s flight home to improve a campaign that has returned 43 in the first outing against New Zealand and precious little since. Buttler said: “You want to lead from the front and do that in your own performance. So, yeah, I’m very frustrated, again, not to contribute. But I’ll stick to the stuff that’s served me well over a long period of time when I’ve had these little runs of form and hopefully come out the other side of it very soon.” While England will use their next tour as preparation for the T20 World Cup defence in the Caribbean and USA next year – a trophy Buttler lifted in Australia 12 months ago – the selection panel is likely to shake up the 50-over squad with fresh faces. One player who will not feature is Stokes. The 32-year-old is set to undergo surgery to address his longstanding knee problem after the squad’s return home in a bid to return to all-rounder status. After taking on Pakistan this weekend, leading the Test side for their five-match series in India early next year comes next. Asked if he considered bringing the operation forward and flying home once hopes of a semi-final berth were dashed, Stokes added: “No. don’t leave anyone hanging.” On his role in the win in Pune, Stokes continued: “I’m more pleased for us to get a victory over the line, it’s been a tough World Cup and nice to get back to winning ways today. Me and [Woakes] just built a partnership. I use the scoreboard as my friend a lot. Whenever pressure feels like it’s building or if it is, I just look up and you realise you’ve got more time than you think. Chris is a genuine all-rounder for us. He’s a very, very experienced cricketer.” https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/nov/08/buttler-keen-to-remain-england-white-ball-captain-despite-poor-world-cup
  4. Let’s say you want to retire early, at age 55. Is $5 million enough to achieve your goal? While the cost of living varies from place to place, a nest egg this size would likely give more than enough money for decades of comfortable living. Even if you live another 50 years, $5 million in savings would allow you to live on $100,000 per year. Here are four things to keep in mind as you plan for a $5 million retirement at age 55. A financial advisor can help you manage your assets and plan for retirement. Find an advisor today. Is $5 Million Enough To Retire Early? When it comes to retirement planning, the all-important question is “how much?” How much money will you need per year to live comfortably? How much can you plan on your retirement fund to grow during your golden years? How much, in total, is enough? While the answers to these questions will likely depend on your lifestyle and standard of living, one rule of thumb is that you should shoot to have eight times your annual income in savings by the time you retire. So if you make the national median income of $70,700 per year, you should plan to have around $570,000 in retirement savings before you stop working. Now, the eight-times rule of thumb is based on a retirement age of 65. Either way, though, this would make $5 million a very comfortable retirement nest egg for most households. Even if you retire at 55 and you generate no returns on your money going forward, you could still withdraw $100,000 per year for decades. can be an effective strategy in retirement because it allows you to withdraw the interest that an investment portfolio generates without ever touching your core principal. On the other hand, it can take a lot of money to generate meaningful income. Fortunately, $5 million is indeed a lot of money. In early 2023, a five-year Treasury note paid an annual 3.5% coupon rate. Even if you poured all of your money into these safe and conservative assets, you would still generate $175,000 per year in active income. That’s enough for most people to live on without having to even consider a burn rate on their retirement fund. With a significant retirement account, look at investing in income assets like bonds and dividend stocks. This is a way to potentially stretch your retirement savings as far as possible. If you’re ready to be matched with local advisors that can help you achieve your financial goals, get started now. Plan For Healthcare Costs Social Security will be a nice bonus to your retirement savings, although the odds are with $5 million in the bank you will not depend on it. Medicare, on the other hand, can play a meaningful role in your retirement plan. As you age, healthcare costs will be an increasingly important part of your budget. After you turn 65, you become eligible for Medicare, which will pick up a lot of these costs. Until then, make sure you budget for health insurance and associated costs. Unfortunately, healthcare will be a significant and growing part of your life. Don’t forget to plan for it, especially if you want to retire early. Remember that your retirement income needs will depend a lot on your expenses. For example, someone who has paid off the mortgage on their house will probably need less in savings than someone who pays rent. This means it’s important to make sure you account for any major expenses. For example, do you have any dependents to care for? Do you have fixed costs or major investments and properties? If you do own a home, will you have enough money to make major repairs if and when they arise? Finally, consider your estate plan. If you want to leave money to your family or heirs, you may need more money or more time to earn it. The Bottom Line With $5 million you can plan on retiring early almost anywhere. While you should be more careful with your money in extremely high-cost areas, this size nest egg can generate more than $100,000 per year of income. That should be more than enough to live comfortably on starting at age 55. Retirement Planning Tips How much do you need to save to fund your eventual retirement lifestyle?

  5. The eldest daughter of former President Donald Trump became the fourth member of the family to take the stand in a civil fraud lawsuit brought by New York's attorney general, who has accused Mr Trump of inflating his net worth to obtain favourable loans from banks. The approach of the three Trumps before her, Mr Trump and two of his sons, Donald Jr and Eric, ranged from bombastic to humorous to visibly agitated. But Ms Trump, who unlike them is not a co-defendant, had a different persona on the stand. The 42-year-old maintained a placid, tightly controlled demeanour even as the tempers of the lawyers and Judge Arthur Engoron began to flare. Unfailingly polite, she smiled brightly at the judge and other court officials, answering questions in a quiet and sometimes monotone voice. This was a "sharp contrast" to that of her father earlier this week, said University of Richmond law professor Cal Tobias. "She's not jousting with Judge Engoron or the attorney general's counsel, not making political statements, and is respectfully addressing the judge." While her style may have been different, there was one element of Ms Trump's testimony that overlapped with that of her brothers: she did not seem to remember much about the issues at hand. For each question from prosecutor Lou Solomon aimed at whether Ms Trump had knowledge of her father's financial statements at the heart of this case, she replied mostly with a variation of "I don't know" and "I don't remember". "Did you have any roles in preparing Donald J Trump's statements of financial condition?" Mr Solomon asked. "Not that I'm aware of," Ms Trump replied. "Did you ever review any of Donald J Trump's statements of financial condition before they were finalised?" the prosecutor asked. "I don't recall," she said. The strategy is common in business cases, where executives can argue that they handle a wide variety of issues and interact with many people daily, as well as put their name to a range of documents, said Eric Chaffee, an expert on white collar crime and a professor at Case Western Reserve University in Ohio. "I think that the use of this defence is significant," Mr Chaffee said. "It probably is a smart thing to do, legally," he added, as Ms Trump's repeated assertion of not recalling instances and documents could "end up being truthful", while at the same time helping protect both her reputation and help the defendants. And Ms Trump's approach is further helped by timing. Many of those instances and documents referred to in court were from ten or more years ago, meaning her lack of recall is entirely plausible. At one point early in the questioning, she joked that she could not remember a call because it happened more than 12 years ago when she was nine months pregnant with her first child. Experts told the BBC the net effect of Ms Trump's testimony on the trial as a whole is likely to be negligible. Ty Cobb, a lawyer who represented Mr Trump early in his presidency but has since spoken out against him, told the BBC he thought Ms Trump would have "zero impact" on the ultimate outcome. "Her testimony has added not a single fact, as far as I can tell, other than she received one call while she was nine months pregnant," he said. Ivanka Trump testifies she can't recall loan details Ivanka Trump is pulled back into her father's orbit The glitzy New York buildings that Trump could lose If anything, Mr Cobb said, her appearance on the stand - something she fought hard to avoid - may hurt the prosecution in the court of public opinion. "I think it's a little bit of a dangerous decision by the attorney general, in the sense that it plays into the Trump theme of: this is just a political witch hunt," Mr Cobb said. "Her being forced to testify, given the absence of any seemingly relevant testimony, sadly feeds into Mr Trump's fantasies," he said. Ms Trump was the final person called to the stand by the attorney general's office. Next, the defence will be able to call their own witnesses. Mr Trump, the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination, has already been found liable for fraud along with his two sons. All have denied wrongdoing. This trial will decide the penalties the defendants will face. New York Attorney General Letitia James, whose office filed the lawsuit, is seeking $250m (£204m) in fines and severe restrictions on how the Trump business operates in New York. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67363774

  7. can’t be missed at Formnext—quite literally. It’s large robotic platform Heron AM is on display along with a series of new hardware, software and automation releases. On the hardware front, Caracol has unveiled the new High Versatility (HV) extruder, rounding its current offering out to three extruders. On the software front, the company has introduced an expanded version of its Eidos Manufacturing Software Suite, with the new Eidos-IoT module for remote smart monitoring. For enhanced automation, the company is launching a new control cabinet that can manage several extruders in a single system. Hardware launch Let’s first look at the new extruder for its large Heron AM platform. The High Versatility extruder was designed with flexibility in mind, and is suitable for a range of applications using a single tool, including mid-sized tools, jigs and fixtures; marine super structures; architectural panels; and furniture components. Caracol says the new end-effector delivers precision, performance and speed for a range of thermoplastic pellets, including advanced composite materials. The HV extruder is the company’s third, following the compact High Accuracy (HA) extruder and the robust, high-throughput High Flow (HF) extruder. Next up is Caracol newest software module. Eidos-IoT expands its existing Eidos Manufacturing Software Suite to include remote smart monitoring capabilities. The new software module consists of a range of features, like condition monitoring, process monitoring, digital twin, predictive maintenance, cloud data logging and analyses of the machine, printed part and working environment. Eidos-IoT enhances existing software modules like Parameters & Path Planning and Human Machine Interface (HMI) to ensure smooth and reliable production. Automation launch In addition to its new extruder and software module, Caracol has also introduced a new control cabinet for its modular Heron AM platform. This solution is capable of managing multiple end-effectors (specifically the HV and HF extruders) in a single system. This gives users a centralized control unit for the LFAM system that will enable them to enhance manufacturing flexibility and their investment on a single platform. You can find Caracol at booth C59, Hall 12.1 for the duration of Formnext. There, the Heron AM will be printing live using advanced materials from Airtech Advanced Materials Group. A series of sample prints from the rail, automotive, marine, furniture and aviation segments will also be on display. https://www.voxelmatters.com/caracol-launches-new-extruder-software-module-and-more-at-formnext-2023/
  8. The largest hardware and software companies in the world are investing heavily in edge computing as millions of new devices came online in 2023 and more compute power was needed to handle the influx of artificial intelligence technology. Companies that are being honored on CRN’s 2023 50 Hottest Edge Hardware, Software and Services list are edge market leaders paving the way for innovation and growth that customers are demanding. This includes server and chip giants like Dell Technologies, Nvidia and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, software leaders Microsoft and Citrix, as well as edge computing specialists such as EdgeConneX and Adapdix that are driving optimization and custom offerings in the market. Edge computing is a critical component for many businesses’ digital transformation goals, with the technology helping customers drive efficiency and effectiveness, accelerate deployments and avoid sprawl. IT research firm Gartner expects that over 50 percent of enterprise-managed data will be created and processed outside the data center or cloud by 2025. Interestingly, the edge computing market will also complement cloud computing for nearly every enterprise by 2025, according to a Gartner report. Customers now require a more agile and real-time front office where customers, employees and assets interact with each other and the enterprise, which is spurring edge computing sales. As seen with some launches by Amazon Web Services and other cloud leaders, edge computing and the Internet of Things is top of mind for many cloud computing companies, which enabled many companies to be honored on CRN’s list. As part of CRN’s 2023 Edge Computing 100, here are the 50 edge computing software, hardware and services companies that are leading the market this year with no plans on slowing down in 2024. https://www.crn.com/news/software/the-50-hottest-edge-hardware-software-and-services-companies-2023-edge-computing-100
  9. In the .biz realm, we often find ourselves wrapped up in the investments, deals and stats of the gaming world (and rightly so), but it’s also important to highlight the games themselves - the fruits of the labour that can only appear after years of research, funding and, of course, development. So here are the most exciting new mobile games right now, the developers and publishers behind them, and why, exactly, they've made the cut. Connecting history with sci-fi, Reverse: 1999 is a Chinese gacha game and the debut title from Bluepoch, combining match3, RPG and strategy genres. Its card-based play represents characters’ moves, with most characters themselves being summoned by gacha from across the 20th Century. Players build unique teams of four based on their summoned time travellers, resulting in a huge stack of potential card combinations. Merge mechanics often prove themselves a key ingredient in mobile success, and they’re present in Reverse:1999 in the form of matching cards to form more powerful attacks. As Bluepoch’s first game, Reverse: 1999’s strong launch has been especially impressive considering it has no well-established IP to carry it. Even so, more than one million people pre-registered in anticipation of launch, and in the US, UK and Japan, the title has topped the Play Store’s free RPG rankings every day since launch (October 26 - November 2). Being a Chinese company, Bluepoch first launched Reverse: 1999 in China this May, featuring full voice acting. Five months later the global launch has released with numerous dubs available and a story full of 20th Century references from the music scene to politics - from Louis Armstrong to the Stasi. This latest title from 4399 Games has officially launched on the Apple App Store, Play Store and AppGallery, powered by brand ambassador Benedict Cumberbatch. The actor takes on the role of a time traveller from the future who crosses paths with Vikings, ancient Chinese dynasties and more. 4399 has spent three years developing Era of Conquest and the continent of Terra. It sees players summoning legendary heroes from across history "in the pursuit of majesty", King Arthur and Qin Shi Huang included. Era of Conquest marks 4399’s fifth mobile game, following in the footsteps of MMORPGs Crasher: Origin, Raider: Origin and Pasha Fencer. All in all, it features nine major civilisations and as many as 6,000 players battling each other at a time. (Two Chinese time travel games in one week? What are the odds…) Mateusz Narolewski’s Impulse9 studio has released its second mobile game Cat Sandbox on iOS and Android, continuing a push into the po[CENSORED]r puzzle genre, this time with adorable pixel graphics. As the name implies, Cat Sandbox is all about felines, tasking players with guiding their cats through physics-based puzzles using mines and bombs to forge a path. Impulse9’s new game may be another puzzle game, but the dev’s changed up its monetisation strategy the second time round. While Black Side is a free game monetised through ads, Cat Sandbox requires a one-off payment to play, £0.99 on the Apple App Store and £0.89 on the Play Store. The puzzle genre has generated a massive $42 billion to date, and combining that with the internet’s love of cats, Cat Sandbox certainly has the right recipe for success. YKj’s Android exclusive Last True Sword has brought new 2D action to the Play Store, giving players a narrative-driven story with pixelated platforming to enjoy. The samurai aesthetic goes hand-in-hand with a sword-based game and gives players the chance to duel in one-on-one combat. With five game modes total, gamers can also take on an infinite horde of foes in Eclipse mode, leap through endless obstacles in a limitless runner mode, and more. Last True Sword marks YKj’s first slice at a mobile game after publishing two apps, Fictionist and Psychology: Who are you? With games taking the lion’s share of mobile revenue, the move is sure to be a wise one. After all, in the first half of 2023, mobile games generated a total $40.9 billion, almost doubling the $26.6 billion earned by all other apps. Rounding off this week’s list is Lovebrush Chronicles from NetEase and Exceptional Global, featuring a stellar Japanese voice cast and exquisite anime aesthetics. The game’s a narrative romance title giving players the power of choice: who they craft a love story with is their decision alone. The tale varies depending on player choices with multiple narratives available, and romances blossom through dating, campus activities and more. To spice things up, Lovebrush Chronicles is set within a multiverse, combining romance with action, travels between worlds and parallel universes to explore. In 2021, anime games made up 20% of all app store spending with Japan naturally being the largest audience. Lovebrush Chronicles has launched on iOS and Android after a pre-registration period lasting since August. Players who get on board early are receiving a load of rewards as thanks. https://www.pocketgamer.biz/feature/82786/new-release-roundup-the-best-new-mobile-games-from-time-travelling-brits-to-cat-rescuers/

  17. It's not too difficult to farm COAM—that's Armored Core 6's currency—on Rubicon 3. While repair and ammo costs are a thing, you can replay missions at any time. Plus, if you tailor-make a mech to trash them you'll be flying through repeat runs. My cash cow of choice was Operation Wallclimber, which I chewed through wielding double shotguns —but for a lot of the game's community, the best early-game farm has involved shoving this poor guy into a locker again and again… and again. The mission, titled "Destroy the Tester AC", shows up real early on in the game. It involves zipping to a location and obliterating a student pilot behind the wheel of a Dafeng Tester AC. You're only rewarded a measly 95,000 COAM for your butchery, but you can knock out a run in about two to three minutes. Just some quick napkin math puts that at 1,900,000 COAM an hour, which isn't too shabby if you can endure the repetition—or gunning down the poor guy. In most stories, we'd be playing someone like the student pilot—a plucky underdog out to make a name for themselves. Our mech would be a villain jetting over the horizon, and we'd spend the whole story training to destroy it. But this isn't that kind of game. In true, brutal FromSoftware fashion, the pilot is destined to be little more than a cash pinata. The horrific consequences of 621's actions haven't stopped him from becoming a memed-upon punching bag, though. https://www.pcgamer.com/armored-core-6-players-have-exploded-this-poor-student-pilot-so-many-times-for-a-quick-buck-hes-become-a-meme/
  18. Sudan, a sprawling country in eastern Africa, experienced a turbulent weekend that left more than 180 dead and at least 1,100 injured. According to different international organizations, the deaths occurred as a result of clashes between members of the army and the paramilitary militias known as the Rapid Support Forces (RSF, for its acronym in English). So far most of the attacks between the two sides have taken place in the country's capital, Khartoum. But this confrontation on the ground is the result of a long chain of events, tensions, crises and political struggles that have not allowed the country to stabilize since the fall of the Omar al Bashir regime in April 2019. Among the reasons for the resurgence of violence is the lack of dialogue between the two main military leaders who remained in charge of the country to lead the nation towards a civil democracy: Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, head of the RSF and better known as Hemedti, and Abdel Fattah. al Burhan, head of the army and president of the country. But among all the factors that contribute to the internal tension in Sudan, there is a key element: the African country has one of the largest gold reserves on the continent. Only in 2022, and according to the government, Sudan achieved exports close to US$2.5 billion, corresponding to the sale of 41.8 tons of gold. Most of the country's most profitable mines are controlled by Hemedti and RSF militias, which finance their operations by selling the precious metal not only to the Khartoum government but also to other buyers in neighboring countries. "Gold mines have become the main source of income for a country with many economic difficulties. And in these moments of tension they become a strategic objective," Shewit Woldemichael, an expert on Sudan's Crisis issues, explains to BBC Mundo Group. "And above all it has been one of the sources of funding for the RSF and one that the army views with some suspicion," she adds. At the same time, rampant extraction has caused a series of devastating effects in the areas around the mines, with a very high toll of people not only killed by the collapse of the mines, but also sickened by the mercury and arsenic that is used. in the extraction of this metal. But how did gold become this strategic element in the violence that Sudan is experiencing these days? Sudan and its "golden curse" Following the independence of the territories now known as Sudan from British rule, in 1956, a difficult reorganization process began, full of ups and downs. Along this path, the country found the main form of financing in oil production. However, towards the mid-1980s, an independence process began in the south of the country, which concluded in 2011, after fierce conflict and political decision-making, with the creation of the Republic of South Sudan. With that independence, Sudan lost two thirds of the money that came from crude oil exports. The decrease in resources intensified internal tensions between various ethnic groups, militias, and armed groups that coexist in the country. In 2012, it was revealed that an area called Jebel Amir, in the north of the country, could contain enough gold reserves to alleviate the difficult economic situation in the country. "This was clearly seen as a godsend, considering what they had lost with South Sudan," Tufts University Sudan analyst Alex de Waal told the BBC. "But it soon became a curse because what it did was intensify the fight for control of the territory between various sides and gave rise to an uncontrolled gold rush," he adds. According to local records and De Waal himself, tens of thousands of young people flocked to that region of the country to try their luck in shallow mines with rudimentary equipment. Some struck gold and became rich, others were crushed in collapsing pits or sickened by mercury and arsenic poisoning used to process the nuggets of the metal. In 2021, 31 people died after a disused gold mine collapsed in West Kordofan province. And without going any further, on March 31, another 14 people died when another mine collapsed in the north of the country. According to the Sudan University of Science and Technology, in analyzes carried out in watersheds near mining areas in 2020, mercury concentration levels of 2004 parts per million (ppm) and arsenic of 14.23 ppm were found. According to the WHO, the permitted levels are 1 ppm for mercury and 10 ppm for arsenic in water. "The use of cyanide and mercury will definitely lead to an environmental disaster in the country," El Jeili Hamouda Saleh, a professor of environmental law at Bahri University in Khartoum, told local radio. "In the country there are more than 40,000 gold mining sites. Some 60 gold processing companies operate in 13 states of the country, 15 of them in South Kordofan. This is not going to end well, because they do not comply with environmental requirements. ", he pointed out. But it was not the only thing that happened. A tribal leader known as Musa Halil and loyal to Al Bashir took control of the territory after an ethnic cleansing that claimed the lives of more than 800 people residing in the area. Halil began mining for the gold and selling it, not only to the government in Khartoum but also to other buyers. However, in 2017 -after Halil, accused of crimes against humanity, was handed over to the international authorities- Hemedti, leader of the RSF and who had armed himself to defend Al Bashir from any military threat, took control of the exploitation. mining. At that time, income from the sale of gold represented about 40% of the country's exports. Literally a gold mine. "That gold made Hemedti the country's leading metal trader and with it, he also gained control of the border with Chad and Libya," De Waal says. A path to democracy The truth is that, after the fall of Omar al Bashir in 2019 due to a coup carried out by the military, the country was left in the hands of the two men who controlled the armed groups: Hemedti and Al Burhan. "Thanks, among other factors, to the control of gold production, with 70,000 men and more than 10,000 armed pickup trucks, the RSF became the de facto infantry of Sudan, the only force capable of controlling the streets of the capital, Khartoum. , and other cities," says De Waal. In 2021, both leaders promised -in a timid alliance- to start a process that would end in a civil and democratic government for Sudan. "In that alliance, ratified last December, it was clear that the gold production was going to be handed over to the civilian government that was elected. But evidently, the growing power of Hemedti made people around Al Burhan ask to control the actions of the RSF," explains Woldemichael Although he clarifies that there are many forces that also want to participate in the control of gold in northern Sudan "For that reason, the Al Burham-controlled army tried to use the security sector reform negotiations [as part of broader political transition negotiations] to control the RSF, under conditions that Hemedti was not going to accept." , indicated. That was one of the many factors that has escalated the tension to the violent clashes over the weekend. Although other factors still need to be added that may end up destabilizing the country. "As the fighting in Libya subsides, it is expected that many more Darfur fighters who had been fighting in Libya will end up returning, furthering the fight over resources, including gold mines," he noted. For analysts, the truth is that peace will depend above all on the effects of international condemnation of the use of violence in the country. "It is not certain that either side will win outright, so as the casualties on both sides unfortunately increase and therefore internal and international condemnation increases, I think they will decide to negotiate," he concluded. https://www.bbc.com/mundo/noticias-internacional-65297706
  19. Food is connection, eating brings us closer to others and right now it is what we need the most. In difficulties, people look for ways to deal with the changes. These days we know that we must be physically far away, away from our "system" (friends, family) to which we turn when there are difficulties. In these months we have learned to connect in different ways. We do the best we can. One way to deal with situations is through food. Food is emotional, it has been a social connector of the human being for a long time. Offering food is part of the social connection of giving-receiving, creating bonds with others. Inviting someone to eat, to celebrate an event (such as a party, wedding, cocktail) is to generate interpersonal closeness. Patterns of culture, family influence, networking, etc. enter. With food we seek to be good hosts, considerate people, we show our personal beliefs, even religious. Since the beginning of humanity... whoever harvested something shared or exchanged it with his neighbors so that both had variety. Then they sold it... then they started the exchange centers that we now know as markets. Eating brings us closer. From sharing a favorite recipe or launching a new one, presenting a beautiful dish, setting a special table with freshly ironed napkins and taking out our favorite decorations. So even though we are far away, we can connect with the few that are close to us. https://dilmun.mx/blogs/blog/la-comida-es-conexion
  20. A masked doctor leans down into a black plastic body bag, and gently mani[CENSORED]tes the legs of the man inside. "First we determine age, sex and length," he explains. "He's in the putrefaction stage now, because of the water." In a hospital car park in the eastern Libyan city of Derna, the final details of one of its many victims are being carefully checked and logged. This is now one of the most vital jobs here, and one of the most distressing. The man is unrecognisable after spending a week in the sea. His body washed ashore that morning. Expert hands gently probe, looking for identifying marks and taking a DNA swab. That's important, in case there's a family still alive to claim him. More than 10,000 people remain officially missing, according to figures from the UN's Office for the Co-Ordination of Humanitarian Affairs. The Red Crescent has been issuing its own numbers. The UN says the death toll so far stands at some 11,300. The final total remains unclear - although the one thing that is certain is the sheer scale of this catastrophe. Mohammed Miftah knows in his heart his family are among the victims. When he went to find his sister and her husband at their home after the floods, it had been washed away. He's heard nothing from them since. He shows me a video he took as the torrent rose, brown water pouring in through his front door. A car is carried on the current and wedges into the open space, blocking it completely. "I saw cars coming down and I came out running," he recalls. "I thought that was it, that I was going to die. We could see our neighbours waving flashlights. In just a few moments, the lights went out, and they had disappeared. "That was the hardest thing." As international aid begins to arrive in earnest, the Health Minister of Libya's eastern government has announced that four Greek rescue workers were killed in an accident on the road to Derna. Fifteen more were injured. They were on their way to join teams already on the ground from France and Italy. Kuwait and Saudi Arabia have also flown in tons of extra supplies. The next step is making sure they're used properly and fairly. Abdullah Bathily, the Head of the UN's International Support Mission in Libya, told BBC Arabic the country now needs to create a transparent mechanism to manage all of its international donations. It's a concern borne from the well-known challenges of coordinating between the government in Tripoli which is internationally recognised, and the eastern Libyan government, which isn't. Back in the centre of Derna there are some points of light amid the mud and debris that has enveloped this city. On one street corner, hundreds of colourful clothes lie scattered in piles. Across the road a huge queue forms as fuel is handed out to survivors. As the donations keep coming, one man arrives and places a box of warm scarves at the feet of an elderly woman. He kisses her head tenderly, as she smiles and begins to choose one. These are Libyans helping Libyans in one of their worst moments of crisis. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-66838559
