@MSFT365Status Dozens of peoples (or possibly hundreds) of people in my tenant have had to re-authenticate their Azure accounts today. Has there been a wide issue, or just our tenant? Personally I had to confirm my account with text and Authenticator, and then reset password.

@straczynski Just re-watching season 3 of Babylon 5. Peter Jurasik and Andreas Katsulas are just so good, and fantastic together. Did you have a favourite season or episode?

Except this is OLD news. Google have been doing this for over 10 years. You can see it in this Reddit thread. reddit.com/r/britishproblems…

It's not doing anything of the sort. It's acknowledging that having been attacked, taken to the ground, and then standing up, are violently pushed against the wall, the instinct is to strike back in defence. As soon as he saw it was police, he stopped.
So apparently it’s ok to assault a police officer. Another disillusioned officer who’ll now be looking for another job.

Some context, when the headline went to press, the report was a small gunboat had been sunk and the Belgrano had received damage. When it became known that it was the Belgrano sunk, likely with large loss of life, the headline was changed. Hang them for the crime they committed.

The full page. I’m not going to pretend it’s not in bad taste. And plenty of the U.K. have vilified the The Sun fir it.

The bulk of the Argentine Fleet was at sea, the aircraft carrier, escorted by both T42 destroyers, Exocet and A4s A SAG to the South armed with 6-8 Exocet, all with orders to find and attack the British Task Force "about to end the war"🤣🤣🤣🤣

The ship was abandoning the Island and they were about to end the war. Immoral, you can watch Thatcher's interview where even English press was upset about this.

While everyone thinks about the honey bees, and the dangers facing them, it's the bumbles and solitary bees that are doing the heavy lifting and are is just as such danger, if not more.
A Cornell lab technician parked for free near a cemetery to save a few bucks on parking. Her walk to work turned into one of the largest wildlife discoveries of the decade. Rachel Fordyce cut through East Lawn Cemetery on her way to a Cornell entomology lab. One spring day in 2022, she noticed bees all over the cemetery, collected some in a jar, and brought them to her supervisor, Cornell entomologist Bryan Danforth. They identified them as Andrena regularis, the regular mining bee. What nobody knew yet was how many were living under the grass. In spring 2023, researchers set emergence traps across the nesting area and did the math. Their estimate: about 5.56 million regular mining bees emerging from the cemetery soil, with a likely range of 3.1 million to 8 million. That makes East Lawn Cemetery one of the largest known aggregations of solitary ground-nesting bees ever recorded. These are not hive bees. Each female digs and provisions her own underground nest, but huge numbers can nest side by side when the soil and food supply are right. About 75% of bees are solitary ground nesters, and most people never notice them because there is no big impressive hive to point to. Records show Andrena regularis has been collected at East Lawn Cemetery since at least 1935. The bees were not new, we just hadn't understood the scale of what was under our feet. The bees also appear to matter far beyond the cemetery fence. Cornell’s apple orchard sits about 600 meters away, and surveys found Andrena regularis was the most abundant pollinator there, even more common than managed honey bees. The cemetery population is likely a major source of those orchard pollinators. Cemeteries make good habitat for exactly the reasons you would expect: relatively undisturbed soil, little tilling, fewer pesticides, and decades or even centuries of being mostly left alone. If one overlooked cemetery can hold millions of native bees, how many other aggregations are sitting under lawns, churchyards, old fields, and abandoned corners nobody has checked, one construction project away from disappearing before anyone knows what was lost?

@ReadingCouncil Out recycling collection is now 2 weeks overdue. It's 4 weeks since it was last collected from our block of flats. You never collected it, you just reset the clock!!! Should we just load up cars and take it to the dump ourselves?

3 Apache Helicopters have just flown right over my house in Lancashire very low!! If you don’t stop what you’re doing immediately and rush outside when you hear an Apache, you’re not my kind of person. 😝

The Privy Council is 700 odd people, you wouldn’t have been missed. Especially as no decisions were being made, you didn’t “chose” the next monarch. You didn’t even know what was going on around you. That’s worrying.
Hi Frances, I know it was 4 yrs ago, but your memory lets you down. You asked to see me on the day that I attended the Privy Council to choose the next King of England. My minion, as you called her, apologised & offered other dates. Not a coward, just busy - like many women👑

This is an absolutely phenomenal piece of James Bond media. Sean Connery (on the set of GOLDFINGER) explaining the real life inspiration for changing 007s firearm of choice. You don’t get behind the scenes videos like this anymore.

@DPJHodges any idea why Labour wanted to block this so badly???
These are the people who blocked the swift brick amendment last night. 102 Labour Peers thanks to the rather extreme 3 line whip which just goes to show how much #Labour do NOT want to help nature let alone swifts. Normally a 3 line whip is used for fairly extreme amendments.
