MALIBU: A ferocious fire tore through Malibu on Tuesday (Dec 10), destroying at least seven homes in one of California’s most desirable areas and forcing thousands to evacuate. Multimillion-dollar properties, some owned by Hollywood celebrities, were in the path of the blaze, which exploded late on Monday, fanned by powerful winds and tinder-dry brush.

We…
After the fall of Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, Israel has been encroaching on its neighbour’s territory. Since al-Assad’s dramatic flight to Russia on Sunday, Israel has attacked Syria more than 400 times and, despite UN protests, launched a military incursion into the buffer zone that has separated the two countries since 1974. These aggressions have come as the country tries to transition away from 53 years of dynastic family rule. In the last few months, Israel has attacked its neighbour Lebanon and has continued to wage a war condemned as genocide on the beleaguered population of Gaza. But why is Israel…

Last year, the ocean surface was much hotter than usual, as seen in July 2023Copernicus Climate Change Service/ECMWF The ocean may have removed much less carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than expected in 2023, mainly due to high ocean temperatures. If climate change continues to rapidly weaken the planet’s ocean and land carbon sinks, it will be even more difficult to avoid dangerous levels of warming. The ocean currently absorbs a quarter of the world’s CO2 emissions from the atmosphere each year. However, warming temperatures are expected to weaken this natural carbon sink and observations from 2023… Source link
A bankruptcy judge on Tuesday rejected a bid by The Onion’s parent company to buy Alex Jones’ far-right media empire, including the website Infowars, ruling that the auction process was unfair. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez said after a two-day hearing that The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron, had not submitted the best bid and was wrongly named the winner of an auction last month by a court-appointed trustee. “I don’t think it’s enough money,” Lopez said in a late-night ruling from the bench in a Houston court. “I’m going to not approve the sale.” It was not immediately clear whether there would…

COMMENT: When I ask someone about your theories, they claim you are unconventional. They said the same thing about Einstein and even Kynes in the early 1920s. It seems that anyone who thinks outside the box is labeled unconventional, but in the end, they adopt the very theories and become conventional. They seem to make history repeat, for they always defend their position, which is obviously wrong. I just wanted to say that historical recurrence is not something new. It has played an important role in developing Western historiography since antiquity. I am sure you are well versed. The view…
