The climate finance deal agreed at Cop29 global summit is a “travesty of justice” that should not have been adopted, some countries’ negotiators have said. Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/subscribegdn What if you thought climate change was your fault? ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRLRb3HV-SU The climate conference came to a dramatic close early on Sunday morning when negotiators struck an agreement to triple the flow of climate finance to poorer countries. Developing nations had called on rich countries to provide them with $1.3tn (£1.08tn) a year to help them decarbonise their economies and cope with the effects of the climate crisis. But the final deal sets a pledge of just $300bn annually, with $1.3tn only a target. The number is an increase from a previous $100bn promise, but Chandni Raina, a negotiator for India, said it was “abysmally poor” compared with what was needed.

‘Degrading to Africans’: why I think we should boycott this Christmas song

,In 1984, charity supergroup called Band Aid made Do They Know It's Christmas? to raise money for people in Ethiopia during a national crisis. Two more versions were released – including one in 2014 aiming to help victims of the Ebola outbreak. Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/subscribegdn Afrobeats artist Fuse ODG was invited to take part in that edition, but refused, saying the single did ‘more harm than good’. He added that the organisers did not agree with his request to change some of the lyrics and imagery used in the campaign that are ‘degrading’ to Africans. Now, with a new 40-year anniversary recording to be released in a few days, the MOBO award-winning artist is continuing to call out the issue – and has had other artists back him. “I understand that there might be good intentions … but there’s a way to do that without also kicking them while they’re down,” says the British-Ghanaian artist. Fuse ODG, who has recently launched an app about African history and languages, says the important thing is to lift up voices and tell stories that are often overlooked on the global stage – such as the fact that a cure for Ebola was discovered by a doctor from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Dr Jean-Jacques Muyembe. In response to the growing backlash, Bob Geldof, one of the founders of Band Aid, told the Conversation: “This little pop song has kept hundreds of thousands if not millions of people alive. In fact, just today [it] has given hundreds of thousands of pounds to help those running from the mass slaughter in Sudan, and enough cash to feed a further 8,000 children in the same affected areas of Ethiopia as 1984.” Watch this video to learn more about why Fuse ODG thinks this – and other similar campaigns – is so damaging to Africa in the long term, and what he believes can help tackle negative stereotypes.

Civil War That Almost Destroyed the Ottomans - Animated Medieval History

,Kings and Generals began remaking its animated historical documentary on the history of the Ottoman empire with the early rise of the Ottoman beylik under Osman I. In the first video we covered the early origins of the beylik, its status among the Muslim states in Anatolia and its early clashes against the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire at Bapheus and Dimbos in 1302 (youtu.be/Xfb9fIMzuRw). The second episode showed how a tiny beylik became a regional power with the continued battles against the Byzantine empire and other states, including the siege of Prusa (Bursa) between 1317 and 1326 and the battle of Pelekanon of 1329 (youtu.be/JPAK3stgMBU). As the Ottoman entered the Balkans, they had to face the Serbian Empire and the Second Bulgarian Empire, leading to the battles like Maritsa in 1371 (youtu.be/qBA-jdWQGJs). The Ottomans continued expanding both in Europe and Asia, leading to the conflicts with many states, including the Karamanids, culminating at the battle of Frenkyazisi in 1387 (youtu.be/bIO66-ZKNhQ). As the Ottomans managed to defeat their enemies in Anatolia, they now had time to fight against the burgeoning Balkan alliance that formed against them with Lazar Hrebeljanovic of the Moravian Serbia at its head. His confrontation with the sultan Murad I would led to the battle of Kosovo in 1389 (youtu.be/PwRfCAU7vzA). In the aftermath of Kosovo, Bayezid I takes the power and continues campaigns both in Anatolia and the Balkans. The events in Anatolia culminate at the battle of Kirdilim of 1391, where the Sultan defeats his Turkic opponents led by Kadi Burhaneddin. The Ottomans became the sultans of Rum getting the title of the Seljuks (youtu.be/WY4DVdCTgGY). Afterwards the Sultan continued campaigning in Europe, leading to the major Ottoman defeat at Rovine in 1395 against the Voivode of Wallachia, Mircea the Elder (youtu.be/CQaa4idtCVE). Despite that, the Ottoman advance in Europe continued and to counter it, the king of Hungary Sigismund called a crusade joined by many nobles and retinues from the Balkans, France and beyond. This led to the so called Crusade of Nicopolis - the last major crusade and the battle of Nicopolis in 1396 (youtu.be/t1LEcJti8_s). In the aftermath, Bayezid had a free rein and he blockaded Constantinople. The Roman emperor Manuel II Palaiologos decided to travel to Europe to get help, but got no help in the West (youtu.be/oJQlRi2KNf0). But with the Ottoman expansion in the east Anatolia, Bayezid was on a collision course with another conqueror - Timur, which led to the battle of Ankara in 1402 (youtu.be/sHH3lQ_O-xA). In the aftermath, the civil war of interregnum between the sons of Bayezid almost destroyed the Ottomans. ? Join our YouTube members and patrons to unlock exclusive content!

Remembering Actress Kelly Preston

1 views 6 years ago

After a two-year battle with breast cancer, actress Kelly Preston passed away on Sunday, July 12. The Jerry Maguire star was 57-years-old.

In 1991, Kelly Preston married her husband John Travolta at a romantic midnight ceremony in Paris, France, after meeting on the set of the Experts. During their 28 years together, the Hollywood couple had three children, Jett, Ella Bleu, and Benjamin. Their first son Jett Travolta, died from a seizure back in January 2009, in their family vacation home in the Bahamas.

His death sparked a court case regarding the ambulance driver and his attorney blackmailing the family to keep the sensitive information about their son’s death under wraps. Nevertheless, according to the Associated Press, after the first criminal trial ended in a mistrial, John Travolta decided against testifying a second time, mentioning the severe strain the situation was causing their family.

Kelly Preston’s first role back after Jett’s death was in the Nicholas Sparks adaptation, the Last Song, with Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus. Firstly known as Marnie Mason in the 1988 film Twins, she went on to star in more popular movies such as Bonnie in the Expert, Chirk in Battlefield Earth, and Jane Aubrey in For Love of the Game. She co-starred with Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire, and as the wife of John Travolta, also co-starred as his character, John Gotti’s wife, Victoria. She also starred in Maroon 5’s music video for their popular hit She Will Be Loved.

John Travolta and their daughter Ella Bleu Travolta honored the late For Love of the Game actress on social media in their own Instagram posts. He starts by saying with a “heavy heart” he’s announcing that his “beautiful wife Kelly” had lost her “courageous fight” to breast cancer and also thanked the healthcare workers at MD Anderson Cancer Center where she received medical treatment. He also mentioned that the public may not be hearing from their family for a while. Ella Bleu also honored her mother by highlighting how she was “courageous, strong, beautiful and loving.”

'Maybe I should have ran for politician when I was 20'. Gerry Hutch on Henry's Front Bench

,'Maybe I should have ran for politician when I was 20'. Gerry Hutch talks hiking, affordable housing, and regrets, on the latest episode of Henry's Front Bench. Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch's General Election campaign has met mixed responses – but one group whose vote he will definitely have is the staff at Corinthians Boxing Club. Corinthians Boxing Club’s Head Coach Kevin Corcoran told The Hard Shoulder about Mr Hutch’s generosity to their community organisation. “Gerald bought the building in Buckingham Street there 25 years ago outright and he gave us that building for one euro a years’ rent - that's all we have to pay,” he said. “Now, he doesn't collect the rent, obviously, but he gave us the building to run as a boxing club free of charge, basically.” Mr Corcoran said the club would not exist with Mr Hutch’s help. “Everyone knows rents, especially in the inner city, are crazy at the moment,” he said. “We probably be paying between €2,000 to €4,000 per month rent for that building, and we couldn't afford that. “We charge the kids €2 per night for training.” The coach said Mr Hutch very rarely visits the club, but when he’s in Ireland he always stops by. “When he comes home, he pops down and says hello, he comes in and says hello to the lads and has a look at the kids training,” he said. Mr Corcoran said The Monk is a “very popular man” in the area. “There's no other man, TD, anything that would buy a building and give it away to the local community,” he said. Mr Corcoran said Mr Hutch’s popularity could be due to his help with the boxing club, but he’s sure “people have their own reasons”. The local community aren’t concerned with Mr Hutch’s possible involvement in organised crime, he said. “We only see the side of Gerald as the very helpful person that he is,” Mr Corcoran said. “We only know the man that helps us out, gives us a club for free.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________ ?
