Wealthy countries' $300 billion offer seeks to end COP29 stalemate

People walk past the logotype at the venue for the 2024 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) in Baku on November 11, 2024. The European Union, U.S. and other wealthy countries at the COP29 summit have agreed to raise their offer to $300 billion per year by 2035 to help developing nations deal with climate change, sources told Reuters on Saturday, after a previous proposal was dismissed as insultingly low. The shift in position came after a $250 billion proposal for a deal, drafted by Azerbaijan's COP29 presidency on Friday, was panned by developing countries as insufficient. It was not clear if the wealthy countries' revised position had been formally communicated to developing countries at COP29, and whether it would be enough to win their support. The U.S. delegation at COP29 and the UK energy ministry did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

CNN —At least 11 people have been killed and several others injured after an Israeli strike flattened a multi-story residential building in central Beirut overnight, Lebanese officials said. At least 23 other people were injured in the strike, according to a toll provided by Lebanon’s Civil Defense. Saturday’s attack marks the latest in a string of Israeli strikes on central Beirut in recent weeks, following the killing of a Hezbollah spokesperson in an airstrike last Sunday. Most Israeli airstrikes have targeted the Lebanese militant group’s stronghold in Beirut’s southern suburbs since hostilities ramped up early last month. On Friday, the director general of Dar Al Amal University Hospital near Baalbek in eastern Lebanon was killed along with six of his colleagues in an alleged Israeli strike, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry.

CNN —Harry Kane became the fastest player to score 50 Bundesliga goals as Bayern Munich beat Augsburg 3-0 on Friday. The 31-year-old striker netted all three of Bayern’s goals as the club continued its impressive start to the Bundesliga season. Kane has now scored 50 goals in 43 games in the German top division, beating Erling Haaland’s record of 50 goals in 50 games when he was starring for Borussia Dortmund. Kane scored twice from the penalty spot before completing his hat-trick with an innovative finish. With time running out, Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka delivered a perfectly weighted cross which found Kane in the Augsburg box.

Such a company would be a major longshot: Loosararian had very little work experience or seed money, and no tech industry connections. After graduating college in 2013, Loosararian co-founded Pittsburgh-based Gecko Robotics. He worked 100-hour weeks to save "$30,000 or $40,000" and fund his startup's first few years of existence, he says. Today, Gecko Robotics is a fast-growing robotics company with $220 million in funding, including a $100 million fundraising round last year that valued Gecko at $633 million.

An Israeli airstrike on a residential building in central Beirut killed at least 11 people on Saturday, the Lebanese Health Ministry said, part of an intensifying Israeli military campaign that appears aimed at pressuring Hezbollah into a cease-fire deal. The strike was an attempt to assassinate a top Hezbollah military commander, Mohammad Haidar, according to three Israeli defense officials who requested anonymity to discuss sensitive military operations. Hezbollah officials on Saturday afternoon said that none of the group’s leaders were at the site of the airstrike, and later in the day, one of the Israeli officials said Mr. Haidar was not killed. The strike came just after 4 a.m., jolting Beirut residents awake with thundering explosions that left much of the city enveloped in acrid smoke. It was the third strike this week in central Beirut, an area that had largely been spared since the war between Hezbollah and Israel escalated.

AdvertisementDeclining foot traffic and rising e-commerce have led thousands of stores to permanently close. Former household names like Borders, Circuit City, and Blockbuster are now just retail history. BI rounded up dozens of once-beloved stores that no longer have a meaningful brick-and-mortar presence. AdvertisementThe only constant is change, especially as emerging trends, shopping patterns, and e-commerce players take larger pieces of the pie. Here's a look back at some of the retail brands whose stores once greeted thousands of people each day, but are now consigned to retail's history books — or exist only online or as a tiny fraction of what they once were.

The sweeping tariffs that President-elect Donald J. Trump imposed in his first term on foreign metals, machinery, clothing and other products were intended to have maximum impact around the world. They sought to shutter foreign factories, rework international supply chains and force companies to make big investments in the United States. But for many businesses, the most important consequences of the tariffs, enacted in 2018 and 2019, unfolded just a few blocks from the White House. In the face of pushback from companies reliant on foreign products, the Trump administration set up a process that allowed them to apply for special exemptions. The stakes were high: An exemption could relieve a company of tariffs as high as 25 percent, potentially giving it a big advantage over competitors.

The low-lying clouds over the city lit up for a split second, video footage showed, then streaks of dozens of glowing warheads plummeted out of the sky. The main contours of the attack on Thursday morning soon came to light: President Vladimir V. Putin said Russia had test fired an intermediate-range missile from its arsenal designed to deliver nuclear weapons, though without the nuclear warheads aboard. The Russian strike caused little damage, but it capped a dizzying week of tit-for-tat moves in the war in Ukraine, shifting focus from the ground assaults on the battlefield to a Cold War-style missile brinkmanship. In the previous two days, Ukraine had fired longer-range missiles provided by the U.S. and Britain at military targets inside Russia. Mr. Putin made clear that the Russian missile test was a response to those strikes — a warning to the West to reconsider military aid for Kyiv.

For many Americans, housing costs aren't just another expense — they shape how the rest of the budget comes together. Yet figuring out how much you can reasonably afford to spend on housing has become increasingly complicated in recent years, as shelter costs continue to rise. If you earn $80,000 a year — the median household income — a decades-old rule of thumb suggests spending no more than 30% of your income on housing, or about $2,000 per month. But for many earners, that's far from realistic, especially in large cities where housing prices have surged the most. As a result, nearly a third of American households are now considered "cost burdened," meaning they spend more than 30% of their income on housing, according to the most recent U.S. Census data.

The bitcoin rally is generating a false sense of security among investors, according to the strategist behind the so-called granddaddy of gold exchange-traded funds. State Street Global Advisors' George Milling-Stanley warns cryptocurrency plays don't offer the stability of gold.

It is the world's largest physically backed gold ETF, and it's up more than 30% in 2024. "But they called it mining because they wanted to seem like gold — maybe take some of the aura away from the gold."

“I believed Cherilyn was my name until the day years later when I decided to legally change my name to simply Cher,” the “Moonstruck” star pens in her memoir. She goes on to explain how her late mother Georgia Holt – who was 19 years old when she gave birth to Cher in 1946 – was exhausted after her labor and did not catch the mixup. When a nurse came in to her room to ask what the baby’s name was, Cher writes, her mother responded that she “had no idea, but the woman insisted so she replied, ‘Well, Lana Turner’s my favorite actress and her little girl’s called Cheryl. My mother’s name is Lynda, so how about Cherilyn?’”After the alarming discovery, Cher writes that she confronted her mother about it, asking, “Do you even know my real name, Mom?”According to the memoir, Holt replied, “I was only a teenager, and I was in a lot of pain. “Cher: The Memoir, Part One” was published on November 19 and is available now.
