Scientists on Thursday said the world surpassed a key warming threshold across an entire year for the first time on record, calling to slash planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions. The findings do not represent a break of the landmark Paris Agreement, which aims to "limit global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels" over the long term. But the EU's climate monitor said the data reinforces the need to rapidly reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to avoid the worst of what the climate crisis has in store. C3S also confirmed that the first month of 2024 was the warmest January on record, with an average surface temperature of 13.14 degrees Celsius — some 0.7 degrees Celsius above the 1991-2020 average and 0.12 degrees Celsius higher than the previous warmest January, logged in 2020. "Rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions are the only way to stop global temperatures increasing."

Students were regularly subjected to sexual harassment by Hall, two former students told me. “I feel like so many of us were victims to the culture,” one former Rosemead student told Insider. Manipulation by a trusted adult has been passed like a virus to generations of Rosemead students.

We wondered aloud whether Masiello had harassed our mother the same way he'd done to generations of Rosemead students.

☆ Cainiao IPO: Alibaba's logistics business will go public in first IPO from the new-look tech giant
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-26 | by ( Anna Cooban | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

London CNN —Alibaba said Tuesday that it would spin off Cainiao, its logistics arm, in what will be the conglomerate’s first initial public offering since it announced a sweeping revamp of its business earlier this year. Cainiao will remain a subsidiary of Alibaba. Founded in 2013, Cainiao operates a global logistics network and provides delivery services for Alibaba and other firms. Alibaba is now beginning to follow through with the most ambitious restructuring in its 24-year history, under new leadership. Cainiao’s listing could provide a much-needed boost to Hong Kong’s beleaguered IPO market.

“This one hurts and it’s going to hurt for a while,” Virginia coach Tony Elliott said. That left a sizeable James Madison following that assisted on the two 80-yard drives that won it. Colandrea brought them back two plays later with a mid-range pass to Malik Washington, who juked defenders and changed directions on a 63-yard pass play that made it 14-7.

It has overtaken Hong Kong — long one of the top IPO markets — for the first time since 1995, and is outpacing economic powerhouses India, South Korea and Japan. Global IPO slowdownPart of Indonesia’s IPO success this year can be explained by lackluster performances elsewhere. The US IPO market, usually the world’s largest, has suffered given its reliance on particularly rate-sensitive tech companies, Lee said. Mining company Harita Nickel raised $660 million in its market debut last month, Indonesia’s biggest listing so far this year. “Our increasing conviction in [Indonesian companies] comes from how its government maximizes the potential of its bountiful raw materials,” he wrote.

Already, he has sold four shirts at $18 apiece, which he said means he could soon tackle his next $100 experiment.
