Israeli settlers reportedly attacked three foreign activists in the Masafer Yatta area, south of Hebron, in the occupied West Bank today, according to Safa.
The attack took place in the village of Susiya while the activists were documenting incidents of settlers harassing Palestinian shepherds and farmers. According to eyewitnesses, the settlers beat the activists during the filming of the assault.

Q. is the housing crisis partly an issue of the equivalent of 'bed blocking'?
Camilla Cavendish (FT) suggests 'last-time' buyers, retirees down-sizing should be encouraged via similar tax break & allowances extended to first time buyers.
If there are a many older owners seeking to down-size but unwilling due to disincentives (stamp duty etc.) then this might be an intriguing policy direction?
Not an alternative to more social housing, but a complimentary policy, perhaps?

yes, I don't think it was meant as mandatory, but just for those for whom the Q. of downsizing was complicated by the costs of selling....

The image features a space-themed background with a starry sky and a reddish-orange horizon, suggesting a celestial or planetary setting. At the top, the text "MISSION COMPLETED" is prominently displayed in bold yellow letters, flanked by two yellow wing-like symbols. Below this, five yellow stars are aligned horizontally, indicating a high rating or achievement level. Beneath the stars, there are two sets of numbers: "XP 912/912" and "R 4,375/4,375," suggesting experience points and rank points, respectively. At the bottom, a yellow button with the text "Outstanding Patriotism" is visible, likely representing a commendation or achievement title. The overall design is clean and celebratory, typical of a video game or application interface celebrating a completed task or achievement.

L'immagine mostra una bandiera che sventola al vento, con un cielo azzurro come sfondo. La bandiera è composta da una serie di strisce orizzontali di colori vivaci, che rappresentano la diversità e l'inclusione. Le strisce iniziano con il rosso, seguito dallo arancione, giallo, verde, blu e viola, simili alla bandiera arcobaleno. A destra, c'è un triangolo che include una linea curva viola su uno sfondo giallo, simbolo dell'identità binaria. La bandiera è issata su un'asta bianca, che si eleva verticalmente. La bandiera è in movimento, creando un effetto dinamico e vivace.

Improving from first to second batch
The one on the left is my first batch, the right my second (just bottled).
I'm very happy with the colour improvement and the sample tastes were better too. Fingers crossed I'll have a much less bitter batch.
My changes to the first run were blocking any outdoor lights (newspaper over window -my wife loved it) and keeping it in a water bath to regulate temperature until sampling time.
In the next batch, or the one after, I should have an under counter fridge to keep it in so this'll help even more.
Congratulations, looks very nice!
The process is going to keep evolving, and mastery will grow with time. Being able to control the fermentation temperature is a huge deal, in my increasingly educated opinion it's key to getting a clean taste. The fridge is definitely something to look forward to. You also get the option to cold crash. Cheers!

L'immagine è un quadrato di fumetto con quattro caselle su sfondo giallo. In cima alla prima casella, un personaggio arancione con un giacca viola dice: "Eurovision è per tutti! Neri, bianchi, ricchi, poveri." In secondo piano, un personaggio blu chiede: "A- e persone che esplodono bambini?" La terza casella mostra il personaggio arancione con un'espressione sorridente e un lieve "sussulto di risata" sopra la sua testa. Nella quarta casella, il personaggio arancione risponde: "Sì, e persone che esplodono bambini," mentre abbraccia il personaggio blu, che sorride.

The image features an abstract design with a cosmic theme. The background is a deep purple, resembling a starry night sky, with lighter purple and white areas that suggest stars and nebulae. The foreground is dominated by swirling patterns of orange and brown, reminiscent of a nebula or a cosmic explosion. The colors blend seamlessly, creating a sense of movement and fluidity. The text "Sleep Theory" is written in a stylized font, with "AFTERGLOW" in a smaller font below it, both in white, contrasting against the dark background. The overall composition is dynamic and visually striking, with a sense of depth and vastness.

L'immagine mostra un gruppo di uomini in abiti formali seduti attorno a un tavolo durante una riunione. Sullo sfondo si vede una finestra con vista su un paesaggio verde. Sul tavolo ci sono bottiglie d'acqua, bicchieri e microfoni, indicando un contesto formale e di discussione. Il testo sopra l'immagine recita: "Vertice a Tirana tra Zelensky, Macron, Merz, Tusk, Starmer e Trump al telefono. Senza Meloni" e "a cura della redazione Esteri". Sotto l'immagine principale, ci sono tre fotografie con il testo: "Il video Rama si inginocchia a Meloni. La premier: 'Edi, dai, no!'". Le fotografie mostrano un uomo in ginocchio davanti a una donna, con un altro uomo in piedi dietro di loro, e un'altra scena con un uomo e una donna che si stringono la mano.
