Two weeks ago, when previewing the scheduled 10-day shutdown of the Nord Stream 1 pipeline – which supplies the bulk of European nat gas usage courtesy of Russia – for maintenance, we quoted from DB FX strategist George Saravelos that if the gas shutoff is not resolved in coming weeks this would lead to a broadening out of energy disruption with material upfront effects on economic growth, and of course much higher inflation, or as he puts it, “beyond the market’s worries about slower global growth in recent months, what is unfolding in Europe in recent days is a fresh big negative supply shock.” As such, DB’s Jim Reid said that July 22, the day gas is supposed to come back online, could be the most important day of the year: “while we...

Another battle took place on Zmeiny Island on July 7. On July 4, Natalia Humenyuk, Head of the Joint Coordinating Press Center of the Defense Forces in the South of Ukraine claimed that the Ukrainian flag was raised over the island and the territory came under Kiev’s control.

Parents have severed relationships with their children, husbands with wives, and sisters with brothers.

Inside is an algae sample known as "snow blood," a phenomenon that accelerates Alpine thaw and that scientists worry is spreading. "These algae are green. But when it's in the snow, it accumulates a little pigment like sunscreen to protect itself," said Marechal, research director at Grenoble's Scientific Research National Center, who was collecting laboratory samples on Le Brevent mountain with teammates.

Tahasang nagpakalat ng fake news ang sangay ng TV5 network na News5 tungkol sa kaisahan ng Iglesia Ni Cristo. Sa ulat ni Faith Del Mundo, pinalitaw na lehitimo ang mga nagpapakilalang miyembro umano ng INC na pawang mali-mali naman ang pinagsasabi at mga ginamit na termino. Ang lalaking nagtago sa pangalang "Sam" ay ipinakilala na "may posisyon sa simbahan." Kaduda-duda ang pananalita ng taong ito dahil aniya, ang pangalan ng mga itinitiwalag ay binabasa sa "isang kapuluan" at gumamit pa ng terminong "kasapi" at "excommunicated." Pinalitaw rin sa report na binigyan na ng listahan ng pagkakaisahang iboto ang mga kaanib gayong nang ilabas ang kanilang ulat ay hindi pa naipamamahagi ang mga sample ballot sa mga kaanib ng INC.

The "Fujiwhara effect" is a reason why TS Agaton has remained stationary in the Leyte Gulf area for some 24 hours now,as to what Prof. Rolando Borrinaga stated. The Fujiwhara effect, sometimes referred to as the Fujiwara effect, Fujiw(h)ara interaction or binary interaction, is a phenomenon that occurs when two nearby cyclonic vortices move around each other and close the distance between the circulations of their corresponding low-pressure areas. The effect is named after Sakuhei Fujiwhara, the Japanese meteorologist who initially described the effect. Binary interaction of smaller circulations can cause the development of a larger cyclone, or cause two cyclones to merge into one. Extratropical cyclones typically engage in binary...
