"Weathered steel" was all the rage on brand new buildings a few years ago, why not on a "truck"? 😏

 

It may not be on the news radar in the English-speaking world, but the turbulence sweeping parts of Africa is the biggest challenge to French influence on the continent in 60 years.

Civilian governments backed by Paris have been toppled in military coups and Russia has wasted little time in taking advantage. The Wagner group was infamous for doing Russia's bidding across Africa, but now a new organisation loyal to Vladimir Putin is infiltrating the region's coup belt.

The movie, "Big Miracle", seems to have been based on a real event known as "Operation Breakthrough". There was a time where something like this would have the entire world holding it's collective breath and doing all it can to save the animals. Today, hardly anyone knows it's happening. 😒

 

Footage aired by the Japanese broadcaster NHK shows a pod of orcas, also known as killer whales, apparently trapped in drift ice off the coast of Hokkaido. At least 10 were seen poking out of a small gap in the surface and struggling for air.

Epic lost their case with Apple regarding Fortnite, yet now Epic are looking to make Fortnite available on iOS in EU. But from the article it seems an alternate "app marketplace" would still need Apple approval anyway. It will be interesting to see how all this is going to work.

I went thru many of his songs after discovering "The Search". "When I grow up" is great ... the subtle comedy in the kitchen scene is brilliant. He's quite the lyrical genius!
