Premiering in two parts, the first four episodes will roll out weekly, beginning on Sunday, with the final four to run in April-May 2025, spanning the Holy season.

V konkurenci s výší škod působených na lesních i polních pozemcích přemnoženou zvěří zůstává v pozadí další z narůstajících problémů naší krajiny – totiž škody působené v ČR se úspěšně množícími vlky. Vlci přitom působí škody především chovatelům hospodářských zvířat, hlavně pak ovcí, koz a skotu. Jednou z výzev do budoucnosti je tak mimo jiné přijmout rozumná pravidla regulující stavy vlčí populace.

Málo policistů, nízké platy a zbytečné úkony, které by neměli dělat. Policisté jsou dlouhodobě nespokojení s poměry v bezpečnostním sboru. Proto poslední týden protestují, méně závažné přestupky místo pokut řeší domluvou, při níž občanům vysvětlují problémy, se kterými se potýkají. Ministr vnitra Vít Rakušan (STAN) by měl s odborovými organizacemi o řešení jednat příští týden, nejen o platech, ale i zřízení pracovní skupiny.

Ve věku 76 let zemřela bývalá ministryně spravedlnosti a místopředsedkyně sociální demokracie Marie Benešová. České televizi to potvrdila někdejší ústecká hejtmanka Jana Vaňhová, o úmrtí advokátky na síti X informoval také předseda Rady ČTK David Soukup. Benešová se ministryní spravedlnosti stala ve vládě Jiřího Rusnoka od července 2013 do ledna 2014, a potom znovu ve vládě Andreje Babiše od dubna 2019 do prosince 2021, tehdy už ale jako nestranička za hnutí ANO.

Žije v něm podobný počet lidí jako v České republice, rozlohou je třikrát větší a kulturně mnohem rozmanitější. Michigan, stát nacházející se na severovýchodě USA, má možná to nejlepší za sebou, přesto patří k nejdůležitějším státům v zemi. Až do roku 2016 byl Michigan sice nejistým státem, ale zato jasně tíhnoucím k demokratům. Donald Trump ukázal, že to není pravda, a navýšil svůj náskok o 70 tisíc hlasů oproti volbám před osmi lety. Bývalému prezidentovi se povedlo voliče mobilizovat, Kamale Harris naopak demobilizovat. Pohoření demokratů v Michiganu ukazuje chyby, které je stály volitele napříč celou Amerikou.

Z návratu Donalda Trumpa do Bílého domu bude profitovat jeden z jeho nejviditelnějších příznivců: Elon Musk. Přiznaně transakční vztah obou idiosynkratických sólistů je v moderní historii bezprecedentní.

Sportem ku zdraví, říká se. A k trvalé invaliditě, dodávají jiní. V případě horolezectví to ale může dopadnout mnohem hůř. Všechny ty světově známé vrcholky mají svůj smutný seznam těch, kteří padli při jejich zdolávání. A pochopitelně mezi nimi nechybí ani ženy. Hannelore Schmatz se měla stát první Němkou, která zdolala Mount Everest. Na vrchol se dostala i se svým manželem Gerhardem, jakožto nejstarším pokořitelem hory. Jenže u Everestu je pořádně zrádná i cesta dolů. Hannelore se nakonec stala osudnou.

Na důležitém místě, kde se řeka Ob potkávala s naplánovanou trasou Transsibiřské magistrály, bylo roku 1893 založeno město Novonikolajevsk. Původní vesnice s 685 obyvateli rychle splynula s dynamicky vznikajícím centrem dělníků a přistěhovalců. Tak tomu bylo ale na mnoha místech, kde se Transsibiřská magistrála stavěla. Teprve když bylo v roce 1912 rozhodnuto o tom, že z Novonikolajevska povede odbočka transsibiřské magistrály do Kazachstánu, byla budoucnost města definitivně zajištěna. A zatímco jiná sídla zanikla, Novonikolajevsk přejmenovali na Novosibirsk a dnes je z něj třetí největší město v Rusku. V asijské části Putinovy země jde o město vůbec největší.

Some time ago, I discussed the concept of a mineral moon shot. Basically, you take a photo of the moon, or a stack of photos, and then process them to bring out the colouration of different areas of the surface. Different areas, the seas, the mountains, the plains, have different minerals on the surface that … Continue reading "Another mineral moon"

Apple today seeded the second beta of an upcoming visionOS 2.2 update to developers for testing purposes, with the beta coming a little over a week after the first visionOS 2.2 beta.


visionOS 2.2 can be installed by going to the Software Update section of the Settings app on the Vision Pro and opting into Beta Updates.

The visionOS 2.2 update adds a new feature for the Mac Virtual Display option, allowing it to be set to Wide and Ultrawide. The Ultrawide setting is equivalent to two 4K displays side-by-side, and it is a notable improvement over the current Mac Virtual Display that's available in visionOS 2.1.

The Mac Virtual Display allows the Vision Pro to be connected to a Mac with the Vision Pro serving as the display for the machine. The virtual Mac desktop works just like a standard desktop with an external display, but Vision Pro does not support multiple displays. As a solution, Apple has added the option for a wider display to maximize space.

Apple today overhauled the App Store Connect app designed for developers, introducing version 2.0. Developers use App Store Connect to distribute and manage their apps for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Vision Pro.


‌App Store‌ Connect 2.0 includes a refreshed UI throughout the app, as well as new capabilities. Developers are able to promote their apps by generating marketing assets for app launches, version updates, featured placements in the Today tab, and more.

These marketing assets that are generated for special moments can be shared on various social media channels for app promotion purposes.

‌App Store‌ Connect will also now send developers notifications when their app is featured in select placements on the Today tab, such as App of the Day or Game of the Day.

In addition to allowing for app management, ‌App Store‌ Connect also provides support for creating TestFlight betas, monitoring sales and trends, and responding to customer ratings and reviews.

Republicans are failing for a much more obvious reason, a more fundamental reason. They're failing because they haven't done much that is worth doing. They haven't tried very hard to improve your life. When the crisis came, they fled. They did nothing to defend you. They did nothing to defend the country. Continue reading →
