Breaking News UncategorizedTwo mummified “alien corpses” were recently shown to politicians in Mexico.
The mummified species were displayed in glass cages as part of an official hearing in Mexico’s Congress. The hearing in question has sparked enthusiasm among UFO enthusiasts.
According to what politicians were told, the corpses were found in the Peruvian city of Cusco and are estimated to be 1,000 years old.
The event in Mexico City was chaired by journalist and UFO researcher Jaime Maussan, who testified under oath that almost a third of their DNA is “unknown” and that the specimens were not part of “our terrestrial evolution “.
“These specimens are not part of our evolutionary history on Earth,” he said in a presentation to Mexican government officials and representatives from the US.
“They are not beings recovered from some unidentified flying object collision. In fact, they were found in diatom (algae) mines and then fossilized.”
Speaking about the latest discovery, Maussan told the Mexico City delegation that the specimens had been examined at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.
Also, according to him, scientists have used radiocarbon dating to collect DNA evidence. And, as he said, the X-rays showed that one had “eggs” inside.
Ryan Graves, the former US Navy pilot who in July stated that the number of UFOs or UAPs (unidentified anomalous phenomena) is “grossly underreported”, was also present.
An extraterrestrial spacecraft is said to have crashed in the New Mexico desert in 1947, from which alien bodies may have been recovered. Theorists claim that the evidence was covered up by the US government.
The French authority for controlling radiation levels has banned the sale of Apple’s iPhone 12 phone, after tests that it says show it violated the limits allowed in Europe for exposure to radiation. The National Frequency Agency (ANFR) said on Tuesday that the level of […]
TechnologyThe French authority for controlling radiation levels has banned the sale of Apple’s iPhone 12 phone, after tests that it says show it violated the limits allowed in Europe for exposure to radiation.
The National Frequency Agency (ANFR) said on Tuesday that the level of radiation from this model was higher than the law defines.
Jean-Noel Barrot, the French minister for the digital economy, told Le Parisien newspaper that a software upgrade could solve the problem. If Apple does not fix the problem, the ANFR said it would order a recall of all phones of this model throughout France.
Apple disputes ANFR’s conclusions, saying that many international bodies have determined that the iPhone 12 complies with global radiation standards.
WHAT EXCEEDING RADIATION LIMITS MEAN
The standard level of radiation absorption is expressed in watts per kilogram of body weight. Radiation from mobile phones is caused by the electromagnetic field near the device that is created by the radio frequencies through which the signal is transmitted.
Unlike exposure to X-rays, or gamma rays – which cause radioactive waste – the radiation emitted by mobile phones fails to break down chemical bonds or change the cells of the human body.
WHAT HAS ANFR IDENTIFIED?
ANFR said it recently tested 141 phones, including some iPhone 12 models, bought in stores. In independent laboratory tests, two iPhone 12 devices did not comply with EU standards, the Digital Minister’s office told Reuters.
As a result of controlling the radiation level of smartphones, 42 sales bans have been made in the country so far, the minister said.
HOW HIGH IS THE RISK?
The main problem caused by non-ionizing radiation from the phone is the heating of body tissues. When radiation exceeds the prescribed level and depending on the duration of exposure, it can cause effects such as burns, or heatstroke, according to the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), a body that sets levels on a global scale .
ANFR said labs had found a radiation level of 5.74 watts per kilogram during tests of the iPhone 12 on users’ hands or pockets.
The EU standard is 4.0 watts per kilogram. However, this poses no risk to human health, said ICNIRP chairman Professor Rodney Croft.
The WHO and other international health bodies say there is no conclusive evidence that radiation from mobile phones causes other negative health effects. However, she has called for further research.
In 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified radiation from mobile phones as “probably carcinogenic”, or category 2B. This designation is used when the agency cannot rule out a possible link.
The agency said there was “limited” evidence of an increased risk of brain tumors in some but not all users, particularly heavy phone users, but added that it could not rule out errors in the data, which would means no definitive answer can be given.
HOW DID APPLE REACT?
ANFR has said that a software upgrade should be enough to fix the problem. In simple terms, this is because software—the apps, programs, and other operating information on a device—affects the way the phone works.
So a software update should be enough to reduce the exposure of iPhone 12 users.
However, Apple has rejected the agency’s conclusions. The company said it had provided ANFR with numerous results from its laboratory and independent third parties proving that the radiation level is in compliance with all global regulations and standards. Apple said it will contest ANFR’s findings and will continue to engage with the agency to demonstrate compliance.
WILL THERE BE OTHER BANS?
ANFR said the iPhone 12 does not meet European Union standards, raising the question of whether further bans on sales of this model will be taken. ANFR will forward its findings to regulators in other EU member states.
While it remains unclear whether investigations by other authorities are underway, Germany’s Federal Office for Radiation Protection said on Wednesday that “the issue of the need for change is currently under discussion”.
And a Dutch daily announces that the relevant authority of this country for radiation levels is analyzing the ANFR report and will ask Apple for an explanation.

Politics UncategorizedA video posted on social networks shows the moment when Vladimir Putin’s army “accidentally” bombards its troops for two hours north of Bakhmut, thinking they were Ukrainian soldiers.
Conversations intercepted by Ukrainians in July show the state in which the Russian army is in Ukraine. Russian superiors had mistaken their forces for those of the Ukrainians, and thus ordered an attack with artillery and other heavy weapons.
Despite the soldiers who were beaten non-stop for more than two hours calling for a halt, it seems their plea was not heeded. After the Russian bombardment stopped, the Ukrainians rushed in and managed to take the defensive positions of the Russians in a few minutes.
On the other hand, the number of Russian soldiers killed is thought to be many, who were shot by their fellow soldiers.

SportsAfter the 1-1 draw three days ago in North Macedonia, Spalletti’s Italy got a difficult 2-1 victory over Ukraine, but very important towards securing a ticket for next year’s European Championship.
For the blue national team, the goals were scored by Inter player Davide Frattesi in the first half, while for Ukraine Yarmolenko scored the only goal. After these matches, England leads the group with 13 points, while Italy, Ukraine and North Macedonia share the second place with 7 points each.
Meanwhile, the Spain of young talent continues to shine, turning into a goal machine. After beating Georgia 7-1 three days ago, they won by 6 goals against Cyprus.
Switzerland won 3-0 against Andorra with Xhaka and Shaqiri as protagonists, who each scored a goal in this challenge, thus responding to the criticism of the last match in Kosovo, which ended in a 2-2 draw.

SportsWithout Ronaldo on the pitch, Portugal’s attack turned into a goal machine in their sixth group game against Luxembourg as they thrashed them 9-0.
The Lusitanians scored 4 goals in the first half, two by Inacio and two by Ramos, but the Portuguese offensive did not stop even in the second 45 minutes, where they scored 5 more times. Liverpool striker Diego Jota scored twice, while Horta, Ferndandes and Felix also scored.
Although Luxembourg was a team that had accumulated 10 points in the first 5 games in these qualifiers, Portugal completely destroyed them. Even before the game was over, the opposing coach left the locker room, abandoning his team.
This was the 6th victory in as many matches for Portugal, which is already qualified for the European Championship, although mathematically it has not yet secured it.

EntertainmentThe film itself is locked in a high-tech vault protected by bulletproof glass and stored in the Louis XIII cellars in Cognac, France.
As moviegoers look forward to upcoming releases in 2023 and beyond, there is one cinematic gem that will remain elusive until the distant future: “100 Years: The Movie You’ll Never See.” This enigmatic work, directed by Robert Rodriguez and featuring the talents of actor and writer John Malkovich, is not a typical theatrical performance. In fact, it is a cinematic experiment of epic proportions, related to the aging process of a luxury drink.
The very title of the film, “100 years”, is a reference to the time it takes a bottle of Louis XIII cognac, owned by Rémy Martin, to mature to perfection. This interesting collaboration between the world of cinema and beautiful souls has created quite a stir among movie fans, although they will have to wait until November 18, 2115 for the movie to be released.
The film is shrouded in secrecy, with plot details being closely guarded until its unveiling. However, we do know that John Malkovich has the male lead and Shuya Chang from ‘Snakehead’ is playing the female lead.
The producers of the film have added to the intrigue by releasing three trailers with advertisements, each with its own thematic focus: ‘Retro’, ‘Nature’ and ‘Future’. These images offer a tantalizing taste of what’s to come in this experimental sci-fi film.
Among the lucky attendees will be relatives of John Malkovich and Robert Rodriguez, who have been entrusted with the tickets to pass on to their chosen descendants, ensuring the film lives on for generations to come.

Breaking News UncategorizedUnusual lights were seen in the sky of Morocco minutes before the earthquake that claimed 2100 lives.
A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck Marrakesh and surrounding towns and villages on Friday night, flattening a significant number of buildings.
According to the Jerusalem Post, videos that were filmed by security cameras in the apartments, show how strange lights appear in the sky, 3 minutes before the earthquake was felt.
The cause of this phenomenon is not known, although it is not the first time it has been observed before a powerful earthquake.
Similar videos appeared before the devastating earthquakes in Turkey earlier this year, which killed more than 45,000 people.
One theory for these “earthquake lights” is said to reflect tectonic stress, seismic activity in the area or even volcanic eruptions.

SportsThe Albanian national football team won the next match against Poland with a clean score of 2-0, at the “Air Albania” stadium in the capital, with two wonderful goals by Jasir Asani in the first half and Mirlind Daku in the second half, giving them the Red and Blacks are ranked first in Group E with 10 points.
We remember that the match started with a clash between the fans, where the Poles were, those who attacked the Albanians with hard objects and chairs, a clash that was thankfully neutralized by the police and FNSH.
However, a few seconds after the start of the first half, the match was interrupted by the referee, as the Albanian fans threw flares on the field, but everything was normalized for a few seconds and the match continued.
The Poles were the first to score with a cross into the area, but thankfully it was VAR’s intervention that disallowed the goal for offside.
This would not scare the red and blacks, who would find the goal with Jasir Asani, who managed to beat the Polish goalkeeper with his left.Meanwhile, the second goal of the match was scored by the newcomer Mirlind Daku, who burst into tears after scoring the goal, while he was also punished with a yellow card, because he took off his shirt.
After five extra minutes in the second half, the Red and Blacks burst into celebration, as they are currently ranked first in the group, significantly increasing our chances of qualifying for EURO 2024.

SportsNeymar has surpassed Pele as Brazil’s male all-time top scorer with two goals in a 5-1 win over Bolivia.
The forward, 31, who went into the World Cup qualifying match tied with legend Pele on 77 goals, missed a penalty before scoring twice in the second half on his 125th appearance.
“I never imagined reaching this record. I’m no better than Pele or any other player for the national team,” he said.
Marta has scored a record 122 goals in 189 matches for Brazil’s women’s team.
Pele, who died in December aged 82, scored 77 goals in 92 appearances between 1957 and 1971. He was widely regarded to be one of the greatest footballers to ever play the game.
His official account on social media platform X paid tribute to Neymar’s achievement.
“Congratulations Neymar for surpassing the King in goals for Brazil. Surely Pele is applauding you today!” it said.
Brazil coach Fernando Diniz said: “He came to do what he did: have fun, score two goals and break the record.”
Neymar became the world’s most expensive player when he joined Paris St-Germain from Barcelona for £200m in 2017.
He left the French side in the summer to join Saudi Pro League team Al-Hilal.
“He is a very big idol, people must recognise him and accept him,” Diniz added.
Elsewhere, Uruguay started their South American qualifying campaign with a 3-1 win against Chile under their new coach, former Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa.
