Actor and director John Krasinski was named People magazine's 'sexiest man alive', for 2024 on Wednesday (Nov 13), taking over the mantle from Grey's Anatomy actor Patrick Dempsey. "Just immediate blackout, actually. Zero thoughts," Krasinski told People in reaction to the news. The actor is perhaps best known for his sardonic nice guy role in the television comedy The Office. "Other than maybe I'm being punked. That's not how I wake up, thinking, 'Is this the day that I'll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?' And yet it was the day you guys did it. You guys have really raised the bar for me," he added. Krasinski, 45, said that out of all of the opportunities he's had as an actor, being a real-life family man is most rewarding. He prefers being a husband and father who happily lives in Brooklyn with his wife of 14 years, actress Emily Blunt, 41, and their daughters Hazel, 10, and Violet, 8. The actor was especially excited to tell Blunt the news, saying "there was a lot of joy involved in me telling her." However, he noted that the new title will change things very little around the house.

SHOALWATER BAY, Australia - The expansion of the Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA) in Queensland has been completed after eight years of development. With the expanded training area now five times the size of Singapore, this means that the scale and complexity of overseas exercises involving the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) can be increased in the future, Senior Minister of State for Defence Heng Chee How said on Wednesday (Nov 13). Heng was speaking to reporters after witnessing Singaporean and Australian soldiers being put through their paces during a simulated beach landing as part of Exercise Trident. He also flew on a CH-47F chinook to view the new facilities within the expanded SWBTA and interacted with SAF and the Australian Defence Force (ADF) soldiers who participated in the bilateral exercise. Jointly developed by Australia and Singapore since 2016, the expansion of the overall training area was set out in a treaty between the two countries in 2020. State-of-the-art facilities such as the combined arms air-land ranges and urban operations live-firing facilities have been included in the expansion.

After their rental agreement with a sublessor fell through, a couple asked for their deposit to be returned. They waited three weeks to no avail and decided to visit the sublessor's home for discussions. But the negotiations turned physical, with the woman brandishing a knife at the couple after she was attacked. The incident occurred at about 7pm last Sunday (Nov 10) at a condominium in Yishun, reported Shin Min Daily News. Chen, 41, said he had seen an advertisement for the four-bedroom unit on Oct 13 and contacted the poster, who said she had rented the apartment from the original tenant. The woman told Chen she could sublet the unit to him and his wife if the homeowner was agreeable to it.  After viewing pictures and videos of the apartment, the man immediately made a PayNow transfer of $1,000 to the woman as deposit. The couple viewed the unit the next day, where both parties discussed the rental agreement in detail. A week later, however, the woman told them that she had not gotten the approval of the condo owner to sublet the apartment.

DENPASAR, Indonesia — Several international airlines cancelled flights to and from Indonesia's resort island of Bali on Wednesday (Nov 13), after further eruptions of a volcano that has spewed ash clouds as high as 10km and forced thousands to evacuate. Jetstar and Qantas said they had stopped flights to Bali on Wednesday for safety reasons because of volcanic ash, while plane tracking website Flightradar24 showed flights to the island by AirAsia and Virgin were also cancelled. Bali is Indonesia's top tourist hotspot and is a popular destination for Australian visitors. The first eruption of the Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki on Nov 3 in the East Nusa Tenggara province, about 800 km from Bali, killed at least nine people. It has since erupted repeatedly, including multiple times on Tuesday. From Nov 4 to Nov 12, 80 flights in Bali were cancelled, including from Singapore, Hong Kong, and several Australian cities, said Ahmad Syaugi Shahab, general manager of Bali's Ngurah Rai airport. Indonesia has close to 130 active volcanoes and sits on the Pacific "Ring of Fire", an area of high seismic activity atop various tectonic plates.

COLOMBO — Chanu Nimesha is contesting Sri Lanka's parliamentary election on Thursday (Nov 14) as the first openly transgender candidate, hoping to forge a more inclusive and tolerant political culture on the South Asian island. Transgender people are estimated to make up about one per cent of Sri Lanka's 22 million people, according to Equal Ground, a local civil society group. They frequently face social rejection, lack legal protection and have almost no representation in political parties. Nimesha, who is contesting from Kegalle — about 80km east of Colombo — said she was the first transgender person to run for a seat in the 225-strong parliament and that her message of social justice had been well received. "I'm not concerned about winning or losing," she said, sitting in her one-bedroom flat. "But it is important for me to be present in this space, to be seen, to inspire others like me. I want to help everyone, not just my community."

NEW DELHI — Indian political parties are increasingly targeting women voters with fiscally draining handouts of cash around the time of elections to counter wider worries about inflation and the lack of jobs, analysts say. A greater turnout of women voters in the past decade has reversed a trend of men easily outnumbering women. Political parties have competed to attract them, even as inflation hit a 14-month peak in October and unemployment stays high, at 8.9 per cent. Regional governments run by both Prime Minister Narendra Modi's party and the opposition are offering or planning such efforts to lure about a fifth of India's estimated 670 million women, the economic research division of Axis Bank says. "This is a substantial burden on the exchequer," its chief economist, Neelkanth Mishra, said in a report. "Where is the funding coming from? Some from higher deficits." Budgeted deficits for the current fiscal year for nearly all Indian states unveiling handouts for women were higher than five years ago, with many cutting capital expenditure to fund the populist measures.

Environmental defenders are raising alarm over Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Environmental Protection Agency, former New York Congressmember Lee Zeldin, who has a history of opposing critical environmental protections and clean energy job investments. Zeldin’s nomination comes as Trump is reportedly discussing moving the EPA headquarters outside of Washington, D.C., which could lead to an exodus of staff and expertise from the agency. “I really don’t think this is about government efficiency. I think this is about terrorizing the career staff,” says Judith Enck, who served as a regional administrator of the EPA in the Obama administration.

The U.N. climate summit known as COP29 is underway in Baku, Azerbaijan, where negotiators are trying to make progress on reducing emissions and preventing the worst impacts of the climate crisis. Many activists, however, have criticized the decision to hold the talks in an authoritarian petrostate. The host country is also facing accusations that it is using the climate talks for business, after the head of the talks, Elnur Soltanov, was caught in a secret recording promoting oil and gas deals. That sting was organized by the group Global Witness, which put forward a fake investor. “In exchange for just the promise of sponsorship money, that got us to the heart of the COP29,” says Lela Stanley, an investigator at Global Witness. “We need the U.N. to ban petro interests from sitting at the table, from influencing the COP.”

В последние несколько лет (с появлением первых продвинутых роботов и AI) в кругах теоретиков заговора все чаще и чаще поднимают и вспоминают дикую, на первый взгляд, конспирологическую теорию, согласно которой далеко не все товары на полках магазинов производятся на Земле.

Есть мнение, что нашу планетку некоторое время назад включили в какую–то глобальную цепочку поставок, в которой Земля, как примитивный мир, поставляет братьям по разуму полезные ископаемые и рабов, а в обмен получает дейвайсы, которые люди не смогут производить самостоятельно ближайшие 500 лет. Например – некоторые элементы цифровой электроники, некоторые сплавы, полимерные материалы и продукты биотехнологий – генетически модифицированные семена, лекарства, вакцины и так далее.

Углубляться в эту теорию я не буду, но в общих чертах она сводится к следующему.

а) Если вы придете в магазин в Германии, например, вы там почти не встретите немецких товаров – всякое г–но, которое могут производить даже в Йемене, везут как бы из стран ЕС. При этом в любой стране ЕС – та же ситуация, что и у немцев: на полках нет местных товаров. Доходит до смешного, когда в Испанию откуда–то прут апельсины, во Францию – шмотки и парфюмерию, а в Германию – машины и колбасу.

б) В славные 1960–е и 1980–е превентивной сборкой того или иного нового изделия занимались инженеры–технологи, у каждого из которых был профильный талмуд с перечнем производителей нужных ему производителей комплектующих. На загнивающем Западе талмуды были побольше, в СССР поменьше, иногда вообще брошюрки на пару листов. Но в любом случае эта информация была обозримой – одну и ту же деталь делали 10–20 производителей, а иногда и поменьше.

Например, финская фирма Stromberg в начале прошлого века производила электрогенераторы для электростанций всей Европы. И делали прекрасно – все работает до сих пор. А сегодня тысячи фирм по всему миру производят какое–то г–но и не разоряются, а если речь идет не о генераторах, а о девайсах поменьше – то там производителей вообще миллионы. Ну и где они!? Покажите заводы. А показать особо нечего – заводов столько нет.

в) В старые и добрые 1960–е и 1980–е у любого из взятых на выбор людей были друзья и знакомые: инженеры, токари, начальники каких–то предприятий, которые где–то что–то производили. начиная от гвоздей и заканчивая стельками для обуви. А сегодня, куда не плюнь – одни менагеры и юристы, чуть разбавленные дальнобойщиками. Понятно, что произведенной продукцией нужно торговать, что продукцию нужно упаковывать. где–то хранить и развозить. Но покажите мне людей, которые это барахло производят! Не собирают отвертками из почти готового, а делают с нуля. Нет как–то таких людей.

г) Некоторые вещи очень сложные в проектировании, например микропроцессоры. Гораздо проще их импортировать откуда–то с луны и клеить марку “Intel inside”. Когда братья–инопланетяне официально покажут личико – будет, несомненно, именно так, но у конспирологов сверлит голову мысль, что именно так уже прямо сейчас.

Другими словами очень сложная и очень спорная теория, которая вчера получила странное и неожиданное подтверждение. Человек на GLP пишет следующее:

Я всегда и много заказывал на Aliexpress china c доставкой в Канаду. В этом году последний раз я заказывал 13 мая, а посылка пришла около 28 мая, что быстро, но более или менее нормально.

Вторая посылка ехала с 3 по 25 мая, включая таможенное оформление, так что в среднем это не менее 3–4 недель. Но вдруг, на прошлой неделе я заказал кое–какие электронные вещи на сумму 70 долларов США. Я использовал двух разных поставщиков, выбрал минимальную доставку чтобы без оплаты и хотел отследить – кто привезет быстрее, чтобы потом с ним работать.

И вот, первый заказ, который я сделал 20 сентября, прибыл из Китая 26 сентября!

Вы, наверное, сразу подумали, что посылка была отправлена со склада в Северной Америке, но нифига! Я специально уточнял: она была отправлена из Китая!
Товарищ не первый и не последний, кто столкнулся с такими чудесами. Технически можно, конечно, предположить, что ему привезли посылку самолетом, но это вряд ли: самолетами таскают маленькие устройства по цене 500 долларов плюс, например телефоны. Но таскание какого–то барахла за 70 долларов куча уже не окупится. И потому возникает вопрос: а в чем же причина такого чуда?

Можно предположить, что это был глюк Матрицы, которая производит продукты. Можно предположить, что в США работают подземные заводы, где электронику собирает миллиард закованных в кандалы юных китайцев. Но так же можно предположить, что некоторые “китайские” товары доставляют с других мест – мест вне Земли. Например, с той же луны, где у братьев по разуму главный торговый хаб. Обычно доставляют с задержкой, чтобы братья–земляне ничего не заподозрили, но тут вышла накладка.

Если я прав, то подобных накладок будет со временем еще много, чтобы братья–земляне были готовы к официальному признанию–объяснению про происхождение некоторых товаров, так что следим за развитием событий.
