(Título omitido propositadamente)
(CNN) - A couple abandoned their baby at an airport check-in desk in Tel Aviv, Israel after
arriving without a ticket for the child. The pair, who have not been identified, were checking in for a
Ryanair flight from Ben Gurion International Airport to Brussels, Belgium on Tuesday with the
infant. It emerged that the baby did not have a ticket, and the couple headed off to board the flight -
leaving their child behind on the airline check-in counter.
"The matter was referred to police", a spokeswoman for Ryanair told CNN in an email. She
said: "These passengers traveling from Tel Aviv to Brussels presented at check-in without a
booking for their infant. They then proceeded to security leaving the infant behind at check-in. The
check-in agent at Ben Gurion Airport contacted Airport Security, who retrieved these passengers,
and this is now a matter for local police."
According to Ryanair's website, "infants can be included in a flight reservation during the
online booking process." When making plans to travel with an infant, a pop-up message appears
on the site stating that there is a €25 ($27) charge - or the local currency equivalent - for each
one-way flight the baby takes while sitting on an adult's lap. A seat must be paid for by separate
arrangement if the adults want the baby to travel in a car seat.
The Israeli Airport Authority confirmed the episode to CNN and said in a statement: "A couple
and an infant with Belgian passports arrived for a flight at Terminal 1 without a ticket for the baby.
The couple also arrived late for the flight, once the check-in for the flight was closed. The couple
left the infant seat with the baby and ran toward the security checks at Terminal 1 in an attempt to
reach the boarding gate for the flight."
A spokesman for Israel Police told CNN in a phone call that the matter appeared to have
been resolved by the time police arrived on the scene. He said: "The baby was with the parents
and there's no further investigation."

Identical twins go on separate vegan and meat diets to see difference they make to body
In 2021, a set of identical twins took part in an experiment that involved one going vegan
while the other consumed meat to see which of these two diets is (1) ________. The diets are
complete polar opposites, but which one is being (2) ________ to your body?
Well, explorers Hugo and Ross Turner decided to put the plant-based and omnivore diets to
the test to see which was better - with Hugo ditching meat and dairy and Ross sticking to a diet
that included meat, dairy and fish. The twins took part in the Kings College London study over a
12-week period (3) ________ the same number of calories each day as well as carrying out the same
gym training.
Hugo admitted that the switch to a plant-based diet hadn't been easy, but he eventually
ended up feeling more energetic. "I was on the vegan diet and it really does take a hit on your
body. I was now having to eat fruit and nuts and alternatives that didn't have any dairy in them -
and so that meant I was eating a lot more wholesome food, which meant that my sugar levels were
a lot satiated during the day. I felt like I had more energy."
On the other hand, Ross' meat-eating journey was a little different. As he said, his gym
performance was 'up and down a little bit more'. He added that on some days of the challenge he
felt 'very energetic' and on others he would have 'huge lulls'.
By the end of the 12-week study, the men found that the differences between the two diets
weren't very significant, after all.

Entertainment
In the summer of 1944, the popular comedian and radio personality Bob Hope began another of
his famous tours of military camps for the United Service Organizations (USO). This particular tour
made stops in Hawaii and on small islands all across the Pacific theater, where Hope and his troupe
performed 150 shows in two months. American military personnel loved the shows. Hope's jokes and
silly stunts made them laugh and took their minds away from the war for a few minutes. Entertainment
gave them something to fight for.

including good leadership, clear purposes and good food, entertainment played a crucial role in the
morale of American military forces during World War II (WWII). Entertainment also served particular

At the beginning of March 1898, a Belgian research
ship became stuck in the ice of Antarctica’s Bellingshausen
sea. The Belgica ship and its crew — which included Roald
Amundsen, who later became the first man to reach the
South Pole — remained there for a year. Scientists aboard
Polarstern, a German research ship currently in the same
place, have a very different view: in the beginning of February
2023, the expedition leader said he had never seen the sea so
destituted of ice. In 2023, on February 13th, sea ice across the
Antarctic as a whole reached 1.91 million square kilometres
(m km2
), the lowest level since satellite records began in 1979.
The world is now, on average, 1.0-1.3 ºC hotter than it
was before the Industrial Revolution. However, that change
has not occurred evenly: the poles are warming faster than
regions in the middle of the globe.
Sea-ice extent around Antarctica was relatively stable
until 2014. It has been declining sharply since then. One study
by a climatologist at America’s National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA) considers that between 2014
and 2017 Antarctic sea ice receded three times as quickly as
during any comparable period in the Arctic. Antarctic sea ice
shrinks to a minimum during late February and early March,
during the southern hemisphere’s summer. It hit record lows
in 2022 and again now in 2023.
These changes have prompted much research into how
global warming is affecting Antarctica. The biggest concern is
over the enormous West Antarctic ice sheet, which is smaller
but less stable than its eastern counterpart. Scientists say that
it risks collapse if it melts beyond a certain point, which could
result in a global sea-level rise of up to three metres. It is
unlikely to happen any time soon, but increasing evidence of
instability in Antarctica’s ice sheets is cause for concern.

Why Climate Change Could Mean More Delayed Flights
No one enjoys a delayed flight, but as our weather gets warmer, we can expect more of them.
That's according to experts, who say that the heat of the summer might cause more delays.
Bloomberg looked at US data for flight delays at airports in Chicago and New York from June to August in 2022 and from January to March in 2023. It found that there were more delayed flights in the summer months at both airports.
When the temperature rises above 39 degrees Celsius, things get very difficult for airlines, Bijan Vasigh, a professor at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in the US, told Bloomberg.
The air is thinner when it gets hot and that makes it harder for planes to take off. In thinner air there is not as much lift, so more power is needed.
When they need more power, it helps to have a lighter airplane.
That might mean pilots have to make last-minute decisions to reduce the weight on board by dumping fuel, passengers or baggage — meaning the plane will probably be delayed.
The problem gets worse at airports that are at a higher altitude where the air is already thinner, and at airports with short runways, since planes need more space to get up to a high speed.
But thin air is not the only problem. Smoke from wildfires — that have been happening all around the world in the summer of 2023 — can also cause flights to be delayed and canceled.
Of course, the summer is also a busy time when millions of people fly, and weather is not the only cause of delays — but our hotter climate doesn't seem to be helping.

Car crashes into second floor
of Pennsylvania home
A man drove his car into the second floor of a
Pennsylvania home on Sunday in what officials say was an
"intentional act".
Charges are pending against the driver after police found
a grey vehicle sticking out of the side of the house in the city
of Lewistown.
Officials have not said how exactly the vehicle made its
way to the second floor.
"The pictures speak for themselves", a fire official told the
BBC.
Anywhere from one to three people were inside the home
at the time of the crash but were not injured, according to
Sam Baumgardner, an administrator at the Junction Fire
Company, which assisted in the response to the crash.
The driver was able to climb out onto the roof after the
crash and was taken to the hospital with injuries, Mr
Baumgardner said.
He added that the car likely hit the second floor because
of a culvert - a tunnel that carries a stream under a road or
railway - on the left side of the house.
The driver "went into the culvert and propelled into the air
and landed on the second floor", Mr Baumgardner said.
In a report, Lewistown police said they had determined
through an investigation that the crash was "an intentional
act".
Officials added that the driver will face charges for the
crash.
The BBC has reached out to police for comment.
The fire department said it took about three hours to
remove the car from the second floor.
"The crew that was on the rescue definitely had to think
outside the box," Mr Baumgardner said.
Rescue crews helped stabilise the house and put a tarp
over the hole from the crash because of upcoming storms,
the Junction Fire Company said in a post on Facebook.

Car crashes into second floor
of Pennsylvania home
A man drove his car into the second floor of a
Pennsylvania home on Sunday in what officials say was an
"intentional act".
Charges are pending against the driver after police found
a grey vehicle sticking out of the side of the house in the city
of Lewistown.
Officials have not said how exactly the vehicle made its
way to the second floor.
"The pictures speak for themselves", a fire official told the
BBC.
Anywhere from one to three people were inside the home
at the time of the crash but were not injured, according to
Sam Baumgardner, an administrator at the Junction Fire
Company, which assisted in the response to the crash.
The driver was able to climb out onto the roof after the
crash and was taken to the hospital with injuries, Mr
Baumgardner said.
He added that the car likely hit the second floor because
of a culvert - a tunnel that carries a stream under a road or
railway - on the left side of the house.
The driver "went into the culvert and propelled into the air
and landed on the second floor", Mr Baumgardner said.
In a report, Lewistown police said they had determined
through an investigation that the crash was "an intentional
act".
Officials added that the driver will face charges for the
crash.
The BBC has reached out to police for comment.
The fire department said it took about three hours to
remove the car from the second floor.
