The ever more persistent news of the more. Minnesota could lose its beloved state. In coming decades if humans don't do something about climate change and prevent the common loon from shifting north. Minnesota state bird case you didn't know it the common. Bird. Defined Minnesota this. Is a species likely to disappear from the state for the summer by 28. This world has nothing to cut greenhouse gas emissions according to a new report by the National Audubon Society. To the. Deadline Geneva Switzerland that country's glaciers have lost a 10th of their volume I said value in the past 5 years alone how do they do it. This is a melting rate unmatched during observations stretching back more than a century. Measurements on 20 Swiss glaciers of sound that melt rates this year it's this one we're living in right now have reached record levels according to an annual study on the state of the glaciers published by the Christ commission at the Swiss Academy of Sciences Now that's a real Academy not like. The one I'm ones I'm a member of the study released amid growing global alarm over climate change found that the intense heat waves over the summer in Switzerland had dashed hopes that an exceptionally snowfield winter would limit the glacier melt this year snow cover on the glaciers was during April and May between 20 and 40 percent higher than usual but during 2 weeks of admits heat at the end of June and again and late July the volume of snow and ice melting on swish glaciers Swiss glaciers I said was equal to the country's total annual consumption of drinking water they drank a glacier. Cuckoo clocks chocolate and drinking glaciers. Because that was Orson well and wells and the 3rd man. September was the warmest ever recorded in North America on the rest of the planet tide a record for the hottest September ever according to global climate report released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration speaking of Noah. Did you know this nearly a week before that administration publicly backed President Trump's drawing of Alabama as a potential location for a hurricane over the war over the advice of its own scientists a top no official warned the staff against contradicting the president and a nationwide directive to National Weather Service personnel. Within hours after Trump provided that map staff was told only stick with official National Hurricane Center forecast of questions arise from some national level media social media posts which at the news this afternoon they were also told not to provide any opinion. But back to the warm Nutella b. Of university study finds that the highly synchronized iconic spawning events of certain reef building corals in the Gulf of a lot Red Sea have completely changed and lost their vital synchrony you know the feeling dramatically reducing chances of successful fertilization. Breakdown and coral spawning synchrony has led to a dearth of new recruits and stagnant aging populations creating circumstances for extinction coral spawning often described as the greatest orgy in the world now they tell me is one of the greatest examples of synchronized phenomena in nature explained Professor Yossi loyal searcher on the project once a year thousands of corals and along hundreds of kilometers of a coral reef release they eggs and sperm simultaneously release their eggs and sperm simultaneously into the open water for where fertilization will later take place since both the eggs in the sperm of corals can only persist a few hours in the water the timing of this event is critical. That news for corals. Doesn't sound like that much fun though the powers agreement requires nations to collectively limit global warming to 2 degree centigrade by 2100 and a try to pursued limiting the increase even further to one and a half new study by Imperial College London. Shows that carbon tax is the currently favored system for reaching this target will not be enough to avoid serious climate change instead. It says jest I'll be I'll be with you in a moment they instead suggest that along side carbon taxes would put a price on emissions there also need to be incentives for strategies that remove c o 2 from the atmosphere. Carol I'll drink some right now. And you go that's my share. Due to the war. Copyright a feature this broadcast a few years back. The. Then President of the United States George h.w. Bush this is a few years back I. Was making a public appearance I believe in New England and reporters after he had left the lectern not the podium the lectern found a note that he had left there it was a note that he carried apparently written by a member of a staff and the note only said these words quote Message I care unquote things have. More up to date than that since then as you will hear next in news from outside the bubble. Let's go down on her. Prime Minister Scott Morrison The government has paid consultants for advice on how to empathize with drought stricken communities across 3 Australian state official revealed during Senate Budget Committee hearings this week that the department of infrastructures inland rail project a contract of consultants to advise how best to show unhappy landowners that the government cares. In contrast to the unfunded empathy of the prime minister railed against when declining to increase payments. Earlier this year the people whose land was going to be taken by this rail project. This funded empathy comes with a taxpayer price tag of $190000.00 but it's Australian dollars the infrastructure officials confirmed consultants future. Were part of a social license strategy to help government empathise with landowners along the controversial rail line being built from Melbourne to Brisbane who would want to start. Project Officer Dr Taylor acknowledge such a strategy was unusual he explained future I measured community sentiment and advice on how to win over critics. And opposition. Parliamentarian asked how that helps tricky areas come to mind Taylor said one is around empathy getting the right tone of voice to deal with landowners along the way we start with getting the tone of voice right and getting the narrative right and that leads to empathy. I think along the way with the landowners we've been dealing with there has been an appreciation that there has been a more empathic approach taken since this initiative a labor. One for the government to have to engage consultants to help to develop empathy and I think it's common to take advice along the way where you find that you need to take advice. It regional contract was for $80000.00 but it expanded to more than double. Another member the government said there are other things as part of the strategy that have gone to our communications in the way we approach stakeholders those other things have also been captured. This is the government's big but the question persisted asking the Agriculture Minister many of the consultancy have been awarded in this department. To help the government develop empathy he. Ever culture minister tried to laugh off the question I find the department incredibly empathetic when we are dealing with a raft of stakeholders particularly in the drought space the language just keeps getting better. But not in this case though. Was the question to suggest the department is having to take multiple research projects to help them develop empathy is quite ridiculous so the idea of culture minister and the response from the questioner was just this one. You can get 190000 Australian for teaching members of the government how to display and put the right to determine. Something we learn when we check out news from outside the model Bubble Bubble bubble is a copy I don't I don't know for copyright it we spelled it right the copyrighted features broadcast. And now. You're going to be wondering about how smart you want your house to be. When you hear this today. Best buy a big retail merchant here in the United States big stores. That's going to switch off the smart portion of its Smart home gadgets this week rendering them. Just dumb stuff. That's according to the u.k. Tech. Website the register folks who bought these gizmos going to ply for some money back in the form of a gift card a full refund ain't happening. So they say how is all this as the n.c.a.a. Is the insignia connected platform will be discontinued Oh it already has this was last Wednesday this is the date of something else that will turn theater this process will determine your eligibility for compensation Best Buy stated on its web page explaining why you have to fill out a lot of forms to get compensated for the fact that your smart stuff is now dumb it's smart power plugs in wall light switches security cameras and a freezer a smart freezer when they were Wife I connected they could be remote controlled via a smartphone app they can all they could also be directed by Alexa or Google assistant Alexa Turner of Google assistant however when the line has its back end systems part the expression shut down for good but has happened and phone apps withdrawn the gear is now degrading to non smart stuff the camera will be completely useless and the footage inaccessible from the apps and the smart plug with metering. Will work with Apple's home app but the other plugs will just be plugs. Smart to go dumb just like that. All your new Samsung has announced that Netflix will no longer be supported on some of its older smart T.V.'s you get too soon old and too late smart apparently not in this case starting next month the Netflix Apple no longer work on some 201-2011 models due to technical limitations some older Roku streaming sticks out will also no longer support Netflix starting in December as Samsung was notified by Netflix as of the 1st December the app alone or be supported.

The editor of Tech Review website tech advisor says consumers should check with their any of the other devices they own could be used to access Netflix it's partly the price of being an early adopter he told the b.b.c. a Don't you know it you know what I call early adopters beta testers He added The people who want to keep accessing streaming services on their existing smart t.v. Could plug in a streaming stick I think you mean to their t.v. But. From Mashable dot com also a tech oriented website on the morning after a holiday and they got an email from rings public relations department ring the video doorbell that's owned by Amazon quote where were you at 6 pm last night if you were trick or treating you were part of the millions of people and really ringing doorbells this Halloween. It then shared some fun facts like which cities captured the most footage and how many more moments were captured during cameras. This year than last year it also shared videos from ring users featuring masked and unmatched children and adults Some were funny moments of pranks and cuteness other featured misbehavior like pumpkin theft interesting that ring decided to use video captured on Halloween as a p.r. Stunt to show that ring is always watching Mashable asked ring whether the people featured in the videos gave their consent to be used in a public city stunt ring did not immediately respond as in ring ring ring using video for p r purposes did get ring in trouble before after it used video captured on ring devices in an ad a Buzz Feed reporter criticised the practice Amazon responded with a defense from its terms and conditions somebody at Amazon read them the videos featured in those ads were shared most likely to the neighbors app when you share content you grant Amazon a blanket license to use any and all footage captured on ring cameras for whatever it's a perpetual right any purpose it chooses. The whole purpose of all of these enterprises ladies and gentlemen becomes clearer and clearer one day one day that we need more data or data one day to get some data form a more gate more gate or more gate. Or more. And from the Smart world category hospitals that have been hit by a data breach or ransomware attack because they're all connected up with the Internet. They can expect to see an increase in the death rate among heart patients in the following months or years because of the efforts taken to fix the holds to a new study quoted by Krebs on security security. Blog health industry experts say the findings should prompt a larger review of how security or the lack thereof may be impacting patient outcomes researchers at Vanderbilt took a h.h.s. List of health care data breaches drill down on data about patient mortality rates at more than $3000.00 Medicare certified hospitals about 10 percent of which had experienced a data breach. After data breaches as many as $36.00 additional deaths per $10000.00 heart attacks occurred annually at the hundreds of hospitals examined for care centers that experience the breach it took an additional 2.7 minutes for suspected heart attack patients to receive an electro electrocardiogram breach remediation efforts were associated with deterioration in timeliness of care and patient outcomes re mediation activity may introduce changes that delay complicate or disrupt health i.t. And patient care processes all because they've got to connect the machines to the Internet. This is list show yeah what a guest plays German we know about the birds and bees Now how about the fish new nick annoyed pesticide use may have caused the abrupt abrupt collapse I say of 2 commercial fisheries unlike Shinji in Japan about 1903 to a new study just just coming around to what I guess while the negative impact of the world's most widely used insecticide on pollinators are well known these results highlight new and potential indirect effects on other organisms including vertebrates I got one of those using more than 2 decades of data on Lake chemistry biology and fishery yields these researchers tracked the impact of new make any noise throughout the aquatic food chain Corney American Association for the answer of science science magazine from plankton to the commercially harvested species have smelt and eel you'll smell that. And. More that is and his team revealed that the very 1st application new nicotine or to pesticides in 1903 comments coincided with an 83 percent decrease in average springtime Mazola plankton biomass which was shortly followed by a complete collapse of the fisheries of the species that feed on them the results show the precipitous decline could not be explained by other confound in factors such as nutrient depletion or changes in salinity or oxygen. They argue that nationwide decreases in fishery yields in other Tapan Lakes during this time are likely also due to food web disruption from pesticide use. Ok that not just the birds and the bees that's all planted and efficient the little fishies but now. My friend the other. A. Save save. Save save. Save money. Well the lead of this story is that international experts of the Western European regulators Association sounds exciting already I know our meeting in Germany in Berlin as a matter of fact 2. To debate the regulatory aspects of nuclear power plant dismantling Yes Now they've got to figure out how to keep that from going blooey But here's here's the lead they buried way deep in the story. They point out that there are $25.00 nuclear power reactors designated for decommissioning in Germany which have to be dismantled but know here down here way down at the bottom while Germany has agreed on an end date for nuclear power it still grapples with finding a final repository for the radioactive waste that is accumulated during the plant's lifetime. Why things didn't they have the government has initiated a series of public consultation events after a multi-stakeholder commission proposed a new search starting with a blank map and aiming to find a suitable site by 2031 I think they're going to need an empathy consult me Germany will have to store around 28100 cubic meters of high level nuclear waste by 2080 for up to several 1000000 years but they're working on it they'll figure out how to store it for several 1000000 years by 2031. Well let's let's get to the president he's you know now now that he and as. Defenders have been criticizing the House process for 4 weeks for being secretive because they were taking depositions now they're criticizing it for being public hearings because it'll be a circus. You know I think they don't like the thing at all I'm getting the impression. The president did take time this week to have a meeting with some evangelicals in the White House some I bet some brand happened chief among them Paula White I don't know if you've heard of her I hadn't she is then the current avatar of the prosperity gospel. Which I'm sure Jesus would be proud to know and says that. God wants you to make money and if you've made money that shows you're blessed. This goes bad of course it goes way back but I think in the United States the 1st guy really to come out front with this was Reverend Ike I don't know if any of you remember Reverend Ike. But he used to say don't wait for a pious guy by and by get yours right here on top of the get yours right here right now with ice cream on top. But Paula White as I say. Big big mega preacher televangelist mega televangelist there's there's there's a compound introductory word. Was at the White House praying or at least hanging out with President Trump later in the week he got more serious about the whole impeachment thing Gordon Sunland his donor gave a $1000000.00 and totally coincidentally Trump appointed him. Bassett or. Someone had altered updated fixed his testimony to the House Intelligence Committee he'd originally said there was no quid pro quo then he fixed at the beginning of this week saying well there was you know there actually was and President Trump fixed his assessment of Gordon Sunderland in response he had said. A few weeks ago that he was a great guy this week he said. You know middle. Bledel stormy was. Inspired. By a. Shop change it's no way was she my side. Now when. I don't care if I am sad. It's. This so I can tell you. It's. Ever. Was a chief of staff like I needed one. I never. Cream. My clothes. Dogs. Probably should shoes. And. Be on things. I. Need a reason. Please. Please. Please. Colin. And see I am going to. Keep. Up with the. Least so I set a goal a. Leash law a real lawyer the flock a goldsmith. And see. What. A mob soloists and players. Played. When she. Placed some of. The body. From me. To. Me. But she smiled and. Told Bob. The food costs costs way. More. Strong. Made my trademark move. Out she. Has been. A. Politician. It is so soft I mean. Well the story starts. With a disaster in London. More than 2 years ago. When an apartment tower. In it was used to. A social housing what they call a housing project in Britain it was consumed by flames one night. They're having an investigation into it turns out the cladding which is used to pretty up the building so the. Higher class people in the nearby neighborhood at something nicer to look to look at that clotting was not fireproof. And it accelerated the. Flames going up the building people in the building were told by the fire brigades that's at a certain point to stay put because according to a fire brigade official this week it was too catastrophic and chaotic in the hallways in the stairwells no lights among other things smoke toxic smoke. All that is the background to this. Appearance by the leader of the Conservative Party in the house and Parliament House of Commons. So Jacob I'm not Sir Jacob softly softly softly smog more once read over the weekend about the reporting about the chances of people surviving if you just ignore what you were told to leave you all so much safer and. I think if either of us really. One of the fire brigade said we would leave a funny building it just seems the common sense thing to do. So his since apologized to them saying he meant no distress. Back to people. Now a fellow member of parliament of the same party apologized after see if suggesting that. He would have survived the tragedy because he's quote more clever than the victims Andrew Bridge and. Defended. As an extremely compassionate intelligent human being. After those comments drew criticism he issued an apology of his own on Twitter I realize what I said was wrong and caused a great deal of distress an offense it was not my intention to do so and I do not want to add in any way to the pain this tragic event has caused. Unreservedly living aside the question of after all the work the birds have done clean up the air why did Warner research the Christian comedian and Crist that's what I said is apologizing after being accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women. With 5 women whose names were replaced with pseudonyms by charisma news. Came forward with accusations about Christie. Blitz a Crist has exploited his Christian reputation and platform to harass manipulate and exploit young women over the last 7 years. Might be the best thing to do with. Acknowledge actions including are not limited to individually sexting multiple women during the same time period initiating sexual relationships with married women and women in committed relationships offering Sutro tickets in exchange for sexual favors for me and calling these women late at night while drunk Crist. Apologized for the hurt and pain has caused various women admitting he's treated relationships with women far too casually in some cases even recklessly. While I'm not guilty of everything I've been accused of he says I confess to being guilty of this I've treated relationships with women far too casual my behavior has been destructive and sinful I've sinned against God against women and the people I logged I violated violated my own Christian beliefs I've heard many people in the process it's a very painful placed. I'm sorry for the hurt and pain I've caused these women and will continue to seek their forgiveness I've also heard the name of Jesus and sought his forgiveness. Apologizes to Christ. He sought professional treatment to help with his addiction struggles so we shouldn't be we shouldn't be laughing at the Christian comedian he used to seek healing and freedom his remaining tour dates for this year have been cancelled. And I bet he's sorry about that Cleveland Browns safety Jermaine Whitehead was cut from the team after posting a series of threatening tweets last week that the Browns called Totally unacceptable and highly inappropriate he posted a series of profane tweets directed at fans who are criticizing his performance and one he threatened to kill a person. His Twitter account was suspended before he left the locker room Whitehead apologized on Instagram for his performance on the field he did not apologize for his Twitter comments well.
