00:00El Nino is said to become, quote, very strong in the months ahead, with a weather phenomenon near certain to
00:07persist through to February.
00:09The United Nations Climate Agency warned on Thursday.
00:12According to the UN's World Meteorological Organization, WMO, El Nino will peak towards the end of this year, though its
00:21knock-on impact for the climate will continue well into 2027.
00:25El Nino is firmly established and will make big impact on rainfall and temperature patterns with associated risk of flood,
00:35drought and extreme heat, the WMO said.
00:38The natural climate phenomenon not caused by climate change typically takes place every two to seven years and lasts around
00:46nine to twelve months.
00:48It tends to peak late in the year, but heat in the oceans releases more slowly into the atmosphere, pushing
00:57up global temperatures the following year.
00:59Scientists expect El Nino to exacerbate the heat of the planet already warming from burning fossil fuels while amping up
01:07weather extremes.
01:09The hottest year on record is 2024, following the last El Nino.
01:16The European Commission suspended Brazilian meat imports on Thursday over concerns about antibiotic use after Brazil failed to show that
01:24its products met EU standards.
01:27The suspension covers beef, poultry, eggs and honey.
01:31Some imports could resume following audits, but Brazil provided no guarantees for beef, which must meet requirements covering the animal's
01:39entire life cycle.
01:41The move adds to tensions over the EU-Mercosur trade agreement, signed in January.
01:47EU farmers have opposed the deal, arguing Latin American producers do not face the same food safety and phytosanitary requirements.
01:56Agricultural trade was one of the most contentious issues during the 25-year negotiations.
02:06The European Commission will propose new housing rules that would give national and local authorities clearer rules for restricting short
02:14-term holiday rentals and the purchase of homes, according to a document seen by Euronews.
02:20The prospect of a tougher crackdown comes as prices have skyrocketed faster than local incomes across most European capitals, rising
02:3064.9% between 2015 and 2025 and rents 21.8% according to EU data.
02:38Even people who cannot afford to buy are facing rising rents, which consume 40% of household income.
02:46Many residents in cities complain that short-term rental platforms like Airbnb have removed homes from the market and pushed
02:54prices up, often forcing them to move.
02:57However, the Commission's upcoming restrictions would be allowed only in RIAs with clear evidence of serious housing pressure.
03:06The Commission acknowledges that short-term rental restrictions and limits on second homes can't solve Europe's structural housing shortage.
03:14Other challenges include high construction costs, expensive land, planning restrictions and lengthy permitting processes.
03:21Housing is a national and local responsibility, leaving the Commission powerless to order member states or cities to build more
03:30of it.
03:31Instead, Brussels is trying to use EU funding, stated rules, investment and legislation to influence the market.
03:45A Maltese court has acquitted tycoon Jorgen Fennec of orchestrating the car bomb killing of investigative reporter Daphne Kurana-Galizia.
03:54The businessman was accused of masterminding the 2017 assassination of 53-year-old Kurana-Galizia, which sparked unprecedented protests and
04:04brought down a government.
04:05The decision sparked outrage from her family and media freedom advocates.
04:10He had made all decisions for the public government to accept the public's people's office and the public's office and
04:20authorities in the public's office.
04:22He had done everything in charge for other people's employees, including the public's office, and to offer them a claim
04:33for the party's employees.
04:37Caruana Galizia had exposed corruption at the highest level in Malta,
04:41shining a spotlight on murky links between Malta's business and political elites.
04:47Prosecutors had accused Fennec of ordering the journalist to be killed because she was
04:52on the brink of publishing a compromising article about his uncle. He was arrested on his yacht in
04:592019 as he tried to sail out of Malta after a middleman in the murder was offered a pardon
05:04to identify those involved. A two-year public inquiry published in July 2021 concluded that
05:13the state should shoulder responsibility for the murder due to the atmosphere of impunity the
05:18government had created. Gloria Steinem, the celebrated journalist, author and feminist activist has died
05:28aged 92. She died on Wednesday at her home in New York City according to her foundation.
05:33No cause of death was given. Steinem became a leading figure of second-wave feminism in the U.S.
05:39during the 1960s and 1970s, campaigning for women's rights, reproductive freedom and equality.
05:46She rose to prominence as a journalist after going undercover as a playboy bunny in 1963
05:51to expose working conditions at Hugh Hefner's clubs. Schneem later co-founded Miss Magazine and
05:58helped establish organizations including the National Women's Political Caucus and the Women's Media Center.
06:05She remained an outspoken advocate for equality into her 90s, continuing to write and speak about
06:11women's rights. In 2013, President Barack Obama awarded Steinem the Presidential Medal of Freedom,
06:18the highest U.S. Civilian Honor.
06:43So, we want to make architecture look futuristic.
06:48and making people curious. What is it? You know, some people say this is a spaceship. Some people say this
06:55is a cloud.
06:56Music playing.
06:58Music playing.
07:02Music playing.
07:12Music playing.
07:38Star Wars only occupies 7% of the museum, actually.
07:42The collection and the breadth of it is so vast and exciting that we're so proud of our
07:49opening Star Wars exhibit, Star Wars in Motion, but there is so much on the wall.
08:06It's something that I felt very, very strongly about in terms of honoring illustrators, artists,
08:14I think, who illustrate stories that are already written and most of the stories are missed.
08:44Out here, there are certain nights when you just get this feeling, there's some psycho killers.
08:50It'll chop you up into a million little faces.
08:57Oh, I like that feeling.
09:00Most movies that come out that are made by big studios in 2026, it's like I always think
09:06of that Smith's line where he says, hang the DJ because the music that he constantly plays,
09:11it says nothing to me about my life.
09:12And that's how I feel about most movies that come out of Hollywood.
09:16It's like, what decade are you all living in?
09:18What reality are you all living in?
09:20We need personal, emotional, human visions, not product that's being mass-produced
09:28to try to keep some system that's long past its expiration date churning.
09:33I don't want to make another dumb sequel in the Camp Miasma franchise.
09:37I don't want to make a remake of a remake of a remake.
09:39I want to make something that feels fresh and new.
09:45She's amazing.
09:46Yeah.
09:47She's clearly the same person from Miasma 1, the final girl, but she's so much more.
09:59How did you choose to live at the abandoned subway camp from the first film?
10:04Someone's gotta be here.
10:06But Little Death comes back.
10:08Little Death isn't real.
10:10Well, not with that attitude, he isn't.
10:13If you've seen his movies, you know he always comes back.
10:20I think that the way that horror and comedy manifest in the body are very similar.
10:27That build up of tension followed by a release.
10:31And I think there's a lot of intersections between the type of people who make horror and comedy.
10:36I think like in terms of those folks feeling like outsiders and the genre feeling like
10:50Sort of this like niche.
10:59I'm just thinking about what it's gonna feel like.
11:02Losing your virginity?
11:04No.
11:05Dying.
11:06Dying.
11:08Dying.
11:10Dying.
11:11Dying.
11:11Where is it that you kids think you're going?
11:18Sex seems so easy for so many people
11:21but I've never been able to get there
11:23with someone else unless I'm really far away
11:25in my head.
11:26Can you feel it? It's racing to the surface now.
11:32It's happening! It's happening!
11:34It can't be asthma.
