How does rain turn into a flood?

Hydropower sites are central

Rescuers are focusing on 12 hydropower projects, where about 900 workers are missing and roughly 500 are believed trapped in tunnels.

Several countries joined searches

Specialized teams from India, China, South Korea and the United States are working through debris and damaged structures, with three people rescued on Friday and Saturday.

Some families held symbolic funerals

Relatives whose loved ones remain missing performed final rites without bodies, while continuing to wait for answers from search teams.

Their styles remain suspended

The couple have not formally lost the HRH styles, but they are not allowed to use them.

Their charity work stays private

Any charitable projects they undertake will be treated as personal activities rather than duties carried out for the monarch.

Security questions remain open

Harry’s return comes while his fight over publicly funded security continues, and he and other claimants were ordered to pay £34.5 million after losing a privacy case.

Territory remains the main obstacle

Russia wants Ukraine to give up land it still controls, while polls show most Ukrainians strongly oppose that idea.

Leaders may need to decide

Zelenskyy said an issue as sensitive as territory can be settled only by leaders including himself and Vladimir Putin, possibly with Trump and European involvement.

Ukraine wants more air defenses

Zelenskyy is seeking additional protection because Russia is expected to target Ukraine's energy system with airstrikes during the winter.

Different goods face different rates

Milk, perfume, video game consoles, golf clubs, clothing, steel and aluminum face 50% tariffs, while cheese, carpets and some appliances face 25%.

Seafood avoided the list

Canada removed planned 25% tariffs on some American seafood after opposition from the lobster industry.

Some regions could feel more pain

Economists expect the measures to hit manufacturers in Michigan and Indiana and dairy producers in Wisconsin and Vermont particularly hard.

Recall totals are near normal

The 5,504 products recalled so far in 2026 are close to 2025's 5,461 and below 2024's 6,524.

Investigations hit a record

The FDA's 19 simultaneous outbreak investigations span products from infant formula to jalapeños, showing that recall counts do not capture the whole safety picture.

Fewer inspections raise costs

When problems escape detection, companies can face expensive recalls and pass those costs on through higher prices.

Aerodynamics reduce energy waste

Features such as flush door handles and an enclosed underbody help give the A2 E-tron a drag coefficient of 0.24, Audi’s lowest yet.

Different setups change range

The car’s range depends on its motor and battery combination, with the most efficient version using 12.8 kWh per 100 kilometres.

The car can share power

Bidirectional charging lets the A2 E-tron send electricity to devices through an outlet or to a home equipped with a compatible DC wall box.

The biggest gains come from AI

Arm says combining neural upscaling, frame generation and denoising can deliver up to four times the framerate because the GPU renders fewer real pixels and frames.

Higher framerates have trade-offs

Generated frames can make motion look smoother without making the game respond equally faster, because creating them can add input delay.

Games must support the technology

Where Winds Meet, Infinity Nikki and Arena Breakout: Infinite are the first confirmed titles, while engines such as Unreal and Unity may help other developers add the features.

The company took eight years

Isar was founded in 2018 by three Technical University of Munich students and has since raised about $1 billion and grown to nearly 500 employees.

Europe’s older rockets cost more

Ariane 6 and Vega-C have generally been reliable, but they depend on billions of euros in government support and remain only marginally competitive.

Private funding changes incentives

Unlike Europe’s traditional geographical-return model, Isar was built with private financing and can pursue customers based more directly on commercial demand.

Genetic testing guides treatment

Targeted medicines are available for about two-thirds of lung cancer cases, making tests for a tumor's genetic subtype especially important.

Treatment costs remain enormous

Oral and intravenous cancer drugs can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, creating insurance hurdles even for patients with substantial resources.

Screening reaches few high-risk people

Only 18% of people at high risk receive the low-dose CT scans that are currently the standard way to screen for lung cancer.

Doctors often miss hearing checks

One survey found that 80% of providers regularly screen blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose, but only 46% recommend hearing-loss screening.

Hearing loss can start early

Noise exposure, certain medications and genetics can contribute, and about 80% of people have hearing loss by their 80s.

Stigma delays useful treatment

Many people wait years or even more than a decade after noticing changes because hearing aids can feel like an unwanted public sign of aging.

Each color uses different frequencies

White, pink, and brown noise distribute sound energy differently across the range of frequencies people can hear.

You have several listening options

Apps, YouTube videos lasting up to eight hours, and noise machines can all provide continuous sound during the night.

Noise works alongside other tools

Audiologists suggest combining a preferred sound with calming techniques rather than relying on noise alone.

Article IV sets the rule

The treaty's Article IV specifically prohibits placing nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction in orbit around Earth.

Both superpowers shared the goal

The United States and Soviet Union agreed to the ban because both wanted to keep the arms race from extending into space.

Verification remains the gap

The treaty can state what countries must not do, but it does not give either side a reliable way to confirm the other's compliance.

Dormancy exists before treatment

The researchers found cells resembling therapy-resistant cancer cells in untreated tumors, suggesting resistance-related traits may already be present before therapy begins.

The pattern spans cancer types

Dormant cell clusters appeared in both aggressive and slower-developing forms of breast cancer, challenging the idea that quiescence mainly belongs to slower-growing disease.

Different regions need different drugs

Because chemotherapy often works best on dividing cells, the dormant regions may require separate approaches such as targeting the complement pathway or the surrounding macrophages and fibroblasts.

RNA polymerase starts gene activity

The enzyme reads DNA and produces RNA, making it one of the first essential steps in turning genetic instructions into cell activity.

Some letters use different chemistry

A related study found that RNA polymerase can recognize a synthetic base pair even without the hydrogen bonds that normally help hold DNA letters together.

Cancer targeting came earlier

Earlier research used expanded genetic alphabets to create synthetic DNA molecules that can recognize liver cancer cells, showing one possible medical direction.

Slayton played wide receiver

His position meant he was responsible for catching passes and helping the Giants move the ball.

His tenure set him apart

Being the longest-tenured Giant meant Slayton had remained with the team longer than any of its other players.

The decision was unexpected

The article describes the release as a surprise rather than a move that had been widely expected.

Lombardi’s role changed first

Michael Lombardi was placed on administrative leave on July 27 before resigning the following week during the university’s investigation.

The contract sets expectations

Belichick’s five-year, $50 million contract requires him to promote compliance and maintain institutional control under UNC, NCAA and ACC rules.

The investigation is independent

Belichick said he is not involved in the investigative process and directed questions about the allegations to the university and other participating parties.

Anderson offers tactical flexibility

Elliot Anderson has started all three matches at the base of midfield, but Maresca also sees him playing as a more attacking No. 8 depending on the opponent.

New arrivals squeeze established players

Enzo Fernandez's arrival raises questions about Rayan Cherki's playing time, while Phil Foden has also faced competition from players such as Iliman Ndiaye and Antoine Semenyo.

Rotation remains an experiment

Different midfielders have started across the opening games, suggesting Maresca is testing combinations rather than following a fixed first-choice lineup.

The petition targets his tour

The Israeli American Council says the concert was not meant to be a political rally and wants Macklemore removed from Sheeran’s remaining Loop tour dates.

His message named several causes

After mentioning Palestine, Macklemore also called for freedom in Lebanon, Cuba, Congo, Sudan, and for people in the United States who fear ICE.

He addressed Gaza and the West Bank

During the set, he said people in Gaza and the West Bank should know they had not been forgotten and that everyone deserves equal freedom.

The uniforms use dark colors

The design overview names “space gray” and “midnight black” as part of the uniform’s color palette and includes knee-high leather boots.

The film’s message is complicated

Critic Roger Ebert described Starship Troopers as mixing quasi-fascist militarism with sly satire, making its visual style different from a straightforward military ideal.

Space Force borrows more imagery

The branch’s logo was compared to Star Trek’s insignia, while its members’ official name, guardians, prompted comparisons with Guardians of the Galaxy.

The teaser stays deliberately vague

It uses spacecraft images and opposing voices without explaining the documentary’s full argument or plot.

The film is unusually long

With a running time of nearly four hours, the documentary has room to examine more than the brief trailer reveals.

Musk disputes the project’s framing

After learning about the film in 2023, Musk predicted it would be a hit piece, while director Alex Gibney challenged him on that assumption.

Altitude spreads out the colors

In the Bavarian Alps, foliage reportedly begins near the Zugspitze in September before moving down toward valley towns and castle foothills into November.

Local weather protects leaves

At Lake Bled, the area around the lake has a microclimate that can help surrounding deciduous trees hold their reds and oranges into late October and early November.

Larches create golden scenery

Unlike most evergreen conifers, the larches of the Dolomites and Engadin Valley turn bright gold before shedding their needles, often lasting until snow arrives.

Some designs serve practical needs

Qatar National Library’s open-book façade helps filter intense desert sunlight, while Virgilio Barco’s water features help cool the building.

Collections hold historic treasures

The featured libraries include rare items such as a Gutenberg Bible, Hans Christian Andersen’s diary, Quranic inscriptions, and an 18th-century Ottoman atlas.

Looks can create illusions

Tianjin Binhai’s highest shelves appear packed with books, but some are actually perforated panels printed to resemble them because visitors cannot reach those levels.

Last-minute fares stay competitive

Advance SeaPort tickets were about $50 more than larger-airline flights in one comparison, but last-minute prices were similar to Alaska Airlines while seats were still available.

Baggage rules are generous

Passengers could check or bring up to 50 pounds of baggage for free, carry a small pet in a carrier, and face no stated liquid limit.

The network remains very small

The airline serves four Pacific Northwest cities, including Seattle, Spokane, Portland and seasonal Redmond, using Pilatus PC-12 turboprops.

The bill targets four offices

They oversee special education, postsecondary education, Native American education, and elementary and secondary education.

Legal responsibility stays put

Under the existing agreements, the Education Department keeps its legal responsibility while other agencies handle tasks such as grants and technical assistance.

Civil rights office is excluded

The bills do not address the proposed move of the Office for Civil Rights to the Justice Department, which has drawn separate concerns from advocates.

Screenings focus on basics

Coordinators use a board book to look at letter and shape recognition, rhyming and small hand skills such as turning pages, rather than diagnosing learning disabilities.

Families receive ongoing support

Parents get personalized plans, learning materials and follow-up checks after one and three months, with updated assessments at ages 4 and 5.

Results vary by neighborhood

The hospital says more than 70% of participating children in Columbus’s Linden neighborhood passed the readiness assessment, compared with an average of 22% there.

Recycling is not enough

Only 9 percent of plastics are recycled worldwide, and scientists say recycling cannot keep pace with expected growth in plastic production.

Lessons can blur science

Education specialists say some materials use technical terms and claim STEM alignment without identifying the specific standards or explaining how the activities meet them.

Support can come with strings

In Beaver County, Pennsylvania, Shell has funded plastics-related curricula and recycling programs, donated school supplies, and bought a school a basketball court while promoting recycling in the curriculum.

Ninety-four rank highest

These Tier 1 chemicals have been detected not only in food-contact materials but also in human samples such as blood or breast milk.

Exposure can come in mixtures

Researchers want regulators to add a safety margin for the combined effects of chemicals people encounter through food, air pollution, textiles, and personal-care products.

Safety depends on use conditions

The researchers say packaging rules should test what escapes from materials under different conditions and include chronic outcomes such as diabetes, infertility, and immune-system damage.

Power bills drive resistance

Critics say new data centers can require major connections to the power grid, raising questions about who pays for the added electricity infrastructure and costs.

Benefits are unevenly distributed

Projects can create construction jobs and some permanent positions, but opponents argue that the financial gains may flow mainly to technology companies while communities absorb water, pollution and land-use costs.

Trump sends mixed signals

Trump has supported making data centers easier to build while also backing protections against higher household power bills and calling communities that reject them backward and poor.

Muscles rebuild after small stresses

Resistance exercise creates tiny muscle-fiber tears that repair and rebuild, helping counter the muscle loss that begins around age 30 and speeds up after 60.

Bones respond to loading

The mechanical stress of lifting activates bone-building cells, which may help slow the bone-density loss that becomes more important around age 50 and after menopause.

Stability involves body awareness

Strength exercises work the core, hips, legs, glutes, and ankles while improving proprioception, the brain’s sense of where the body is in space.
