On today's show Andrew and Bill begin with the news that the US is greenlighting the sale of Nvidia's H200 chips to the PRC market. Topics include: Dubious claims in Trump's Truth Social post announcing the news, searching for arguments in support of this policy change, the 25% of China revenue Nvidia will pay to the U.S. government, and waiting for Beijing's response, including how many U.S. chips Chinese companies will be allowed to buy. From there: The U.S. halts plans to sanction the MSS and its contractors, Japan seeks more support from the U.S., and the dynamics of “stability” come into focus. At the end: The December Politburo meeting, Emmanuel Macron's visit to China, an email about the West's willingness to build, and ‘Zootopia 2' becomes a sensation in China.
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Magid joins us from the Doha Forum, an annual gathering bringing together government officials, policymakers, civil society representatives and business leaders from around the world to discuss major global challenges. Qatar’s Prime Minister said yesterday that Doha does not consider the current situation in Gaza to be a ceasefire, arguing that this would require an Israeli withdrawal from the entirety of the enclave. At the same time, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty called for deploying the International Stabilization Force (ISF) in Gaza “as soon as possible,” claiming that Israel is using the absence of international monitors on the ground in Gaza to violate the ceasefire on a daily basis. We hear additional statements critical of Israel and discuss their significance, even as the Trump administration appears to announce that Phase 2 of the Gaza ceasefire will commence in the coming weeks. Also yesterday at the Doha Forum, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa accused Israel of “exporting crises” to other countries around the region to distract from its “horrifying massacres” in Gaza. We learn how those at the forum consider that the Syrian president, once denounced as a terrorist, is a legitimate actor in the region, whereas Israel is not. Piling on to the criticism against Israel at the forum, also yesterday, a senior Saudi diplomat said that while there is much focus in the international community on the need for the Palestinian Authority to engage in a comprehensive reform process, a reform of the Israeli government is what is most needed for peace in the region. Magid puts this new Saudi statement in the context of what we also learned yesterday: that the US and Saudi Arabia had reached understandings on the eve of Hamas’s October 7 attack regarding the concessions Israel would have to make vis-à-vis the Palestinians for Riyadh to normalize relations with Jerusalem. Magid previews what he has uncovered, which will be discussed more in depth in Friday's Lazar Focus podcast. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Summary: Ants are such diverse organisms that extremes have evolved. Join Kiersten to learn about some ant extremes. For my hearing impaired followers, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean Show Notes: “Tales from the Ant World” by Edward O. Wilson Music written and performed by Katherine Camp Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops) Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating. This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. In this penultimate episode I thought we'd talk about the extremes of ants. The fastest, the slowest, the fiercest, and maybe a few more. The ninth thing I like about ants is the extremes. Edward O. Wilson studied ants for his entire life, give or take a few years when he was still in diapers, and that was 92 years. He discovered species we didn't know about and described ant behaviors that boggled our human minds. It is no surprise that he included some of the extremes of ant life in his writings. Something I had no idea about when I decided to pick ants as my next topic was that each species of ant has it's own tempo. Not unlike music, this is the speed at which worker ants get things done. Some colonies are speedy as a tornado and others are as slow as molasses in winter, but they all get the job done. Each tempo fits the niche that a specific species fills in their habitat. Sometimes fast wins the race while other times slow persistence fairs better. The fastest ants on Earth may very well be the workers of the genus Ocymyrmex. There are 34 known species in this genus and are found in most of eastern and southern Africa. Their chosen habitats are hot, hot, and hotter. Ocymyrmex, or swift ants, have streamlined bodies with very long legs attached with thick segments at the base. The mandibles are narrow and fit tightly against the head when folded. Their spiracles, air holes through which they breathe, are large. Ocymyrmex are built to be sprinters. On a trip to Gorongosa National Park in Africa, Edward Wilson came across a colony of Ocymyrmex and wanted to grab a few for the Harvard University Lab. By this time in his career he'd caught a lot of ants, so he was well versed in the best ways to snatch a few specimens. The first obstacle he had to overcome was the extreme heat emanating from the mud flat on which the ants were running. It felt like a stove top, so kneeling down to catch some ants was going to be a challenge, but he was up for it. He positioned himself above the workers, readied his forceps, and caught not one single ant. The workers were just moving too fast. He could barely follow them with his own eyes much less grab them with forceps. A quote from his book Tales from the Ant World, “The ants were moving like a sizzle of water droplets in a frying pan, difficult even for the eye to keep track.” End quote. Those are some fast ants! Ocymyrmex are made for sprinting but another ant, which is a double extremist, is made for marathons. Ants in genus Cataglyphis are long-distance runners and Cataglyphis bicolor is one of the most heat tolerant animals known to western science. These ants live in the Sahara desert and are mainly scavengers. They search for dead insects and other arthropods that have succumbed to the heat of the desert to dismantle and bring back to the nest. Cataglyphis bicolor can withstand temperatures up to 158F, or 70C, but they must keep moving. If they stop, they fry. Talk about a good reason to keep moving. Let's look at the opposite side of tempo, the slowest ants in the world. Ants in genus Basiceros are as slow as ants can get without dying. These ants are found in Central and South America. They are not well studied and; therefore, poorly understood. The main problem is they are incredibly difficult to find. If you can't find it, you can't study it. What we do know is Basiceros ants are medium in size and rely on their camouflage to survive. Their opaque brown color closely matches the fallen leaves and mold in which they live. They do hunt for food and like any other slow moving predator they are ambush predators. They simply wait for prey to come to them, lunge, strike, and seize it. They will stalk prey, as well, just at a very slow pace. If they are discovered by something, or someone, uncovering their hidden pathways under the leaf litter they freeze and will remain still for minutes at a time to protect themselves. Edward O. Wilson says of them, “Their tempo may be as slow as an ant species can employ and still survive.” End quote. The Basiceros ants are also an extremist twofer. They are the slowest ants and also the dirtiest ants, which may be a linked trait. When Edward Wilson stumbled across some Basiceros in Costa Rica and transferred a colony to Harvard to study, they realized that the brown color of the ants wasn't just camouflage to blend in with the dirt, it was dirt. The bodies of these ants are covered in coiled and feather-shaped hairs that essentially collect dust and debris. They use the dust and debris to hide amongst the leaf litter. The colony of Basiceros studied at Harvard demonstrated this in an unexpected way. At the university, the colony that was brought back and housed in tunnels made of plaster of Paris. Within several weeks of living in the man-made tunnel the ants had turned white! They had replaced their dirt colored garments with the white plaster of Paris so they could blend in with their new habitat! For the last extreme we will discuss lets's look at timidity and fierceness, both serve ants well in different situations. Dolichoderus imitator is probably the most timid, or least offensive, ant in the world. This small ant lives in the Amazon rainforest of South America. Most colonies typically consist of a few hundred workers and a rarely seen queen. They nest in random cavities of decaying leaf litter and do not set up permanent colonies. If they are disturbed, by person or predator, they scatter in all directions. Nothing seems to be directed; although, they do pause long enough to pickup the closest larva or pupa to take with them. The individuals will shelter in any covered place they find nearby waiting for the danger to pass. The colony will reconvene in another random clump of leaves elsewhere. Maybe the transience of their nests breeds timidity for survival reasons. On the other side of the coin is fierceness. There are several candidates for the fiercest ants in the world. Our first candidate is the bull ants from Australia. They are in the genus Myrmecia and the largest workers are the size of hornets. They nest in craters of soil and are not intimidated by any creature that comes near, including something as big as a human. Edward Wilson has seen them lock their large eyes onto an animal simply walking by the nest. Sentries will turn and watch and if you come close, they walk toward you. If they catch you, you will regret it. When the interloper makes the correct decision to leave, they follow up to 10 meters, or 32 feet, to make sure you don't come back. Bull ants are pretty scary due to their size, but ants that live in symbiosis with a specific bush or tree are even scarier, especially if you come in contact with them in their home. The guardian ant, Pseduomyrmex triplar, are found in palo alto trees common in Colombia. In 1770 Jose Celestino Mutis happened upon these ants in an unpleasant encounter. He paused under a palo alto on a hot sunny day and quickly found himself covered in red ants that were continuously stinging him. There were so many and they were stinging so fiercely that he had to remove all of his clothes and jump into the nearest body of water. Edward Wilson gives his vote for most ferocious ant to the tree-dwelling Amazon ant Camponotus femoratus. These ants are also know as the epiphyte garden-ants. They live in the trees and use soil and vegetable detritus gathered from the ground and surrounding branches to build spherical ant-gardens around certain species of epiphytes. Epiphytes are plants that grow on the surface of another plant but does not harm the host plant. The ants' nest is held together in part by the roots of the epiphyte. A quote from Edward Wilson's book Tales from the Ant World tells us all we need to know about why he voted these as the fiercest ants in the world. Quote, “When I turned and walked downwind toward the colony, a swarm of workers erupted almost instantaneously. As I came closer, but still without touching the nest, the defenders went berserk. Piling up on top of one another, they reached out toward me with the abdomens of many pointing in my direction and spraying a cloud of formic acid.” End quote. I see what he voted the garden ants as the fiercest ants in the world! There are many more extremes in the ant world, but I have already gone over time for this episode. I'm glad you joined me for my ninth favorite thing about ants, their extremes. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change. Join me next week for another exciting episode about ants.

All the text for this video and then some is below. Also See the Perfect PrisonerMark Twain once said, “A fool doesn't argue for truth. He argues to feed his pride. He will twist your logic mock your calm and drag you down to his level then beat you with experience. You can't teach someone who wears ignorance like armor. The more you respond the more you validate his madness. Don't wrestle pigs in the mud, they enjoy it, and you walk away filthy. Silence isn't weakness it is power. Let the fool shout, his own words will bury him deeper than you ever could.”This echos my mantra, the best way to deal with an attention w***e is to deprive them of attention. Modern society is in a tough situation. Sensationalism is monetized and truth telling is censored. Over time the entire stage is taken over by clowns.If we continue to reward the clowns for temporary escapism, if the societal rot is avoided rather than addressed, our mental decay will become irreversible. Improvement isn't fun nor is it instant. How does one move the inertia of the heard? The field of donkeys with their heads in the sand lost in a haze of Netflix, porn, gossip, endless gaming, is seen from above as just rows of ignorant un-moving a******s. But they will kick you if you disturb them.When poison is made to taste like honey the fool will fight to keep it. The alcoholic clings to his destroyer like a baby bottle. The scroller feels naked without their phone. Take away the constant virtual reality and drugs and most people are bored with who they are for they are no one and are unsatisfied with real relationships for they made none. So back to the noise they will go, cursing anyone who interrupts them.Self deceivers will always hate the one that tells them the truth, for truth violently destroys falsehoods they have attached their identities to. A lie injures the intelligent. The truth hurts the confident but wrong.As Socrates said, “It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows. The mind once sealed by arrogance becomes deaf to truth and blind to growth. Knowledge doesn't enter a cup that believes itself full. It spills. It is wasted. The greatest barrier to wisdom isn't ignorance, it is the illusion of understanding. Until a man humbles his certainty, he'll mistake noise for insight and ego for intellect.”Too much attention makes a donkey think he's a lion. And that is the sickness of our age. We feed fools with applause until they begin to believe their own delusions. A crown of noise sits heavier than a crown of gold. Yet every ignorant man craves it. They mistake visibility for value and noise for nobility. The donkey when surrounded by cheers forgets what he is. He begins to roar in his own mind. But strip away the crown, silence the claps and you'll hear only the Hee-Haw of mediocrity. Attention in excess is poison. “I'm a 10” is one of the by products of this insanity.It blinds the weak, corrupts the average and flatters the undeserving. The wise finds respect in truth, the fool seeks validation in volume.”Aristotle said, “The wise seek reason, the fool seeks approval.” The clown seeks attention, I will add.“No one is more hated that he who speaks the truth, for Truth is a mirror that exposes the ugliness men spend their lives trying to conceal. A ruler who feeds his people illusions is loved, but one who strips away their delusions is despised. For men prefer to be comforted by falsehoods than confronted by reality. The truth does not inspire gratitude. It inspires resentment. To reveal truth is to wound pride. And pride is defended more fiercely than kingdoms.Understand this, the world rewards deception with loyalty and condemns honesty with exile. Therefore if you choose to speak truth, do so knowing you will walk alone, armed not with applause but with contempt. Yet in that solitude lies a darker kind of power, the knowledge that while men hate you, they can not silence the reality you have spoken.” - Plato“You can beat 40 scholars with one fact but you can't beat one fool with 40 facts. For wisdom bows before truth. But ignorance kneels only to its own delusion. A scholar listens, weighs and yields when reason demands it. The fool however builds his throne upon noise. He mistakes volume for victory and stubbornness for strength. You can carve proof into stone yet he will still deny it, for his pride is built on denial itself. He doesn't search for truth he searches for validation. And when a man argues for validation instead of understanding, no truth can reach him. to debate such a creature is to wrestle with the wind. It howls. It shifts. But it can never be captured. While truth humbles the intelligent only silence can expose the fool.” -RumiMost modern people do not care about injustice to others. They care about being seen as someone who cares. It is performance empathy. This is how and why the media can select what the crowd will be outraged about. Watch them wear courage like a disposable costume. One day it's a mask, a black square in their bio or the Ukrainian flag, they come and go as quickly as Free Tibet or Kony 2012, and are as hollow as a white Epstein binder given to Zionist influencers. Theater has gravity. A herd with no moral principles will always glob on to whatever is socially acceptable and safe to hate. Thus we see the weirdly zealous outrage towards the problems of yester-year. It is extremely safe to condemn Nazis, racism, slavery OF THE PAST. But the current evils, sweat shop labor, exploitation, Jewish supremacy: challenging these things comes at a cost. Are you good or do you just wish to appear good?The less talent they have the more pride vanity and arrogance they have. All these fools however find other fools to applaud them. The ignorant always find comfort in the echo of their own stupidity. They praise one another not out of admiration, but out of fear, fear of seeing their own emptiness reflected in silence. Pride is their refuge, vanity their creed, and arrogance their mask. Wise need no applause, for truth is its own reward. Yet the fool blind to his ignorance mistakes noise for wisdom and flattery for honor. And so the world rewards appearances of substance, illusion over intellect. It is a strange comedy. Those who know least shout loudest. Those who know most must whisper to be heard.Noise and attention seeking make more money than telling the truth or tackling social ills. Piling on to the degeneracy is how one makes it in the world. This set up is part of our sickness and why most people run around like barely domesticated monsters. The future is rapidly becoming a contest of who is mastering fakery the quickest. It is a whirlwind of lies and self deception. Every filter, every edit and avatar is deception.“A man who lies to himself and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth either in himself or in anyone else. And he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love. And in order to divert himself, having no love in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges to the lowest forms of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal. And it all comes from lying.” -Fyodor DostoyevskyLying to others and to yourself is hollowing.You do not need more time. You need less distractions. Hours are squandered on pointless endeavors, meaningless habits, mindless scrolling. Your time disappears as you get lost in the noise. The difference between the focused and the astray is discipline. Distractions are thieves. They don't just steal minutes, they steal dreams. They turn months into years and years into regret. You don't need an extra hour. You need a sharper mind. No matter what you know, no matter how many facts you have gathered, you are adrift without focus.If someone is hurt by honesty it is not the truth that hurt them but their inability to accept it. The fragile mind will always favor fantasy to patch over the rough spots in reality. To the strong willed this is disgusting. If you can not handle honesty don't bother asking me questions.Beware the noise. Beware the noise. It wants you to fail.“It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so”. - Mark TwainLittle BonusAlso see the Prefect Prisoner This is a public episode.

The Enchantments are one of Washington State’s most popular hiking destinations. But right now, the alpine wilderness area is far from the pristine escape visitors are hoping for. Bathroom pits are overflowing, there’s garbage on the trails, and it’s overcrowded. There’s only one forest ranger to patrol more than 900 miles of terrain in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. The problems stem from federal budget cuts. Seattle Times outdoors reporter Gregory Scruggs is here to tell us more. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.
