Día de los Muertos is a tribute to the afterlife, a day meant to honor those who have died and keep their memory alive. Unlike Halloween, which historically was a day to ward off evil spirits, Day of the Dead is more about paying respects to loved ones who have died. Just like in Mexico, Filipinos visit their loved ones’ graves and also create altars to those who have passed. Many people honor Day of the Dead by visiting the graves of dead relatives and loved ones. People come together to share stories of their loved ones — helping keep their memory alive.

That's odd, she thought, then toggled over to Facebook to search for clues about the issue on a group for MGM Resorts International loyalty members. There, she learned that the largest casino owner in Las Vegas had fallen victim to a cybersecurity breach. The situation entered its sixth day on Friday, with booking capabilities still down and MGM Resorts offering penalty-free room cancelations through Sept. 17. The security attacks that triggered an FBI probe shatter a public perception that casino security requires an “Oceans 11”-level effort to defeat it. It's true, Kim said, that casino giants like MGM Resorts and Caesars are protected by sophisticated — and expensive — security operations.

☆ How Mexican narcos use remittances to wire U.S. drug profits home
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-18 | by ( Reuters Graphic | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +28 min

Now the news agency is the first to detail how Mexican drug gangs have harnessed legitimate remittance networks to repatriate their U.S. drug profits, and the factors that make this activity so difficult for authorities to detect and thwart. But authorities say Mexican drug cartels are piggybacking on this legal network to repatriate earnings from U.S. narcotics sales. A Reuters search of Mexican court records dating back to 2012 turned up no cases involving money laundering through remittances. Still, prosecutors in those cases mentioned several of those firms in court documents because they said the defendants had used their platforms to wire drug money. His office did not respond to requests for comment about law enforcement allegations that Mexican cartels are using remittances to launder drug money.

In Kylie Manning’s paintings, figures swirl and emerge from broad landscapes. The wall-filling pieces can provoke a physical reaction, akin to looking over the rail of a bridge across a river. But the rest feels less clear: Is there a third figure, head in hands, between the initial two? Manning’s figures aren’t gendered, and she wants viewers to interpret the subjects and settings on their own terms. “It’s about spending time with them, letting them unravel for you like a song,” she says.

Since then, critics say those schemes have come back to bite the economy by ramping up competition for scarce housing - fuelling inflation and piling pressure particularly onto young, local, entry-level workers. Rents in Lisbon have jumped 65% since 2015 and sale prices have sky-rocketed 137%, figures from Confidencial Imobiliario, which collects data on housing, show. Locals struggled to keep up in a country where public housing only represents 2% of the property market, according to government data. The average rent for a one-bedroom flat in Lisbon is around 1,350 euros, a study by housing portal Imovirtual showed. "If housing stays this expensive or gets worse, (foreign) people ... will start moving back to their own countries."

Datorită vegetației de răchitișuri și sălcișuri, care s-au dezvoltat aici în ultimele două decenii, și a apelor lacului Beleu, castorul are mai multe condiții pentru a se înmulți și a repopula regiunea.

Peste 30 de specii de pești ce migrează din Dunăre își găsesc casă în apa dulce a lacului Beleu. Acum mai mulți ani, specialistul, împreună cu un grup de cercetători, a efectuat un studiu al apei din lacul Beleu.

Păstrăvii care petrecuseră 8 săptămâni în apa cu droguri au ales această variantă în primele patru zile după mutarea în apă curată. Păstrăvii implicați în studiu au fost eutanasiați, iar țesutul lor cerebral a fost analizat de cercetători. Cercetătorii au concluzionat că și un nivel redus de droguri în râuri pot afecta animalele care trăiesc în ele. Pofta de droguri a peștilor s-ar putea dovedi chiar mai puternică decât satisfacția obținută în mod natural prin hrană sau împerechere, a mai spus Horky. În 2019, cercetătorii din Marea Britanie au descoperit urme de droguri, medicamente și pesticile în creveții de apă dulce.
