in a statement, cambridge university said...ave achieved so far and building upon thatis achieved so far and building upon that is something that we are focused upon. the german chancellor angela merkel has said that britons who have had two covid 19 vaccinations should soon be able to travel to germany without going into quarantine on arrival. mrs merkel met prime minister borisjohnson today for talks at chequers, on her last visit to the uk as head of the german government and covid travel restrictions were high on the agenda. we think that, in the foreseeable future, those who have received double jabs will then according to our classification, and britain obviously is a high—incidence area, will be able to travel again without having to go into quarantine, we would like to encourage people to be vaccinated. in the beginning, we did not have that much experience with this variant but we are dealing with it, and we are approaching this in the spirit that i set out and the variant is spreading quickly in germany too, but let me

in a statement, cambridge university said... she was once a student. saskia obviously will be forever young in our eyes, but her legacy is already far bigger than she would ever have hoped for, if she had thought about her legacy, which she absolutely wouldn't have done. at the end of the day, we want to represent how saskia is positioned in our hearts as well as in our minds. 12—year—old sky brown is set to become the youngest british summer 0lympian of all time after being named in the team gb squad. she'll be 13—years and 11 days old when she competes in the skateboarding in tokyo this month. ricky boleto reports. she might be team gb�*s youngest athlete, but with a smile like that, she's the happiest, too. sky turns 13 just a week before the tokyo games begin, becoming a teenager and aiming for gold in skateboarding, which will feature at the olympics for the first time ever. well, obviously, trying to get a gold medal, but i'm just going to try and have fun, enjoy being at the olympics and show the world what skateboarding

here is a lecture on modern, middle east politics of the university of cambridge and joins me now via skype from new hampton in new york. could help you with this on the program. how would you assess the president's position? at the moment he seems to be perhaps in a stronger position with the unions of the military behind him. he is, but it's a very volatile situation and it's very clear that the opposition is well and not has presented a strong counter force to him. they're sitting and they've got to sit in front of the parliament. they've issued a very strong statement and it is not very clear, even though it's a moment the military is behind the president. the, the issue is not clear whether the military to support him at this stage varies, contributed to al jazeera throughout the day, about their own opinions about the military and where they position themselves during this scenario, as it's unfolded in less than 24 hours. what's your opinion about the military before and after? we might say this impasse that the president has created? well, that i think is why the question is op

cambridge university estimates that the annual amount of energy used to mine bitcoin is equivalent toladesh. there are nearly 10,000 bitcoin mining computers here and greenidge wants to build more. the company argues it's greener than bitcoin mines that use coal in the us and china, and that they offset their emissions. but they're still pumping out carbon dioxide to make a cryptocurrency. i spoke to greenidge's chief executive jeff kirt. some people would think it's absurd but at a time when a lot of people are trying to cut down on their carbon emissions, there's a plant that uses fossilfuels to mind bitcoin. well, i mean, first and foremost, we are 100% carbon neutral in our bitcoin mining operation. we're the first and the only bitcoin mining company that has made that announcement. but you are still putting fossil fuels into the air. you might be offsetting them, but you are still putting fossil fuels into the air. you wouldn't need to offset them if this didn't... we — right. this is a gas plant and, you know, approximately 50% of the grid in new york state is powered by natural

chris smith is a consultant biology at cambridge university in the u. k. he says the outbreak is far from over. we are looking at roughly $50000.00 cases per day that we know about . and that's important because of course, remember that about 50 percent of the cases of grown verse have no or few symptoms . and so people often don't know they've got the virus, so we can probably double that. we're probably looking at a $100000.00 cases per day at the moment, which does seem stupendously high. but if you take that number and ask when we had our last outbreak, the big wave in january, which was caused by the circle, kent or alpha of area. and what will we seeing in terms of cases in hospital and what we're seeing in terms of those cases in hospital translating into mortalities from crone of ours. and it's like night and day, it couldn't be more different because now what we're saying is very high level, $50000.00 cases that we know about per day. but what we're not seeing of those cases translating into people in hospital or thank goodness people who are pass

globally, cambridge university estimates that the amount of energy used to mine a year's worth of bitcoinl energy use. greenidge argues that because it uses gas, it's greener than bitcoin mines that use coal in the us and china, and they've pledged to invest in a solar energy plant. but the process still generates carbon dioxide, that greenidge says they offset. we are 100% carbon neutral in our bitcoin mining operation. but you're still putting fossil fuels into the air. you wouldn't need to offset them if this didn't happen. this is a gas plant, and approximately 50% of the grid in new york state is powered by natural gas so like all natural gas plants, whether it's in new york or the rest of the country, this plant does emit carbon. some local politicians, though, are concerned. do you want greenidge to close down? personally, it absolutely should. it should not be using fossil fuel to run these computer processors to benefit a few people on wall street — for what? it's not worth it. politicians around the world are still trying to work out how to deal with bitcoin�*s greedy energy con

one of the | reasons is she is a mathematician, she has a phd from cambridge university station obviouslyy to figure out how to win that race. team gb won bronze today but there is disappointment to? it was a mixed day. team gb are on board with medal games, that came in thejudo chelsie giles board with medal games, that came in the judo chelsie giles taking bronze in the women's under 52 kilograms event, you can see her there in that bronze final, she went on to take that middle, and team gb are guaranteed another medal in about 45 minutes' time because bradley sinden is guaranteed at least a silver but if he wins gold he will be the first british man to win a tae kwon do in the olympics, but as many of you will know jade the olympics, but as many of you will knowjadejones the olympics, but as many of you will know jadejones has been the leader of the british tae kwon do team over the last decade, she won gold in london and in rio but was beaten in the first round in tokyo a few hours ago, so that really was a disappointment for her to be knocked out in that first round. and also some di

amy ludlow and ruth armstrong are the directors of the cambridge university learning together programmeer. khan became one of their students in prison. amy and ruth, amongst others, saw him as a success story. they put him on their leaflets. they gave him a computer. i think people saw the advantage of having him as somebody they had involved in their programme, showing some capability to deal with even the highest category of offender. theyjust lost sight of the danger to the public, their employees and anyone else associated with the programme. at the inquest into saskia's death, learning together said it was the responsibility of the prison and probation service to assess khan's risk, and they'd relied on those agencies' expertise. something that was put to amy ludlow if, after everything that's happened, learning together would rule out working with categories of prisoner terrorist offenders. and her answer was no, because there's no research evidence to support that. yeah, and we heard a number of times there's no research evidence for this and no research evidence for that. i sugg

he was sent home because cambridge university was locked down and he noticed an apple fall at his estate. then he saw the moon. then he asked a question for the ages. if an apple falls, does the moon also fall? but he realized that yes, the moon, celestial comments fall in free space but the mathematics was too great for his time . what did he do? he discovered calculus is all the falling apple and falling moon problem. his name was isaac newton and he created the first theory of almost everything. and equation that the arrived the laws of motion and that put in the industrial revolution. mechanics, steamengines, buildings, tensions on bridges . all of it could be calculated using newton's laws of motion so whenever of course is unravel, changes human history. about that. the four forces that govern the universe, each time a horse was unraveled it changed human history but newton's laws initiated the industrialrevolution. amazing . then some years later faraday and maxwell worked out electricity and magnetism. and the theory showed that if you very a magnetic field you get an electric fi

according to research from cambridge university, the u.s. is the second biggest mining destination on the planet, just after china. we've known for months that china was kicking out all of its bitcoin minors and we suspected they were headed to the states because of the competitive energy landscape this data confirms that suspicion. the u.s. is home to nearly 17% of all of the world's bitcoin miners, which is a 151% increase since september. and what's especially noteworthy here is the fact that the migration to the u.s. started even before the china crackdown began. what i'm hearing from some of the biggest u.s. based mining operators is the u.s. share is likely much bigger ed frontier thinks that north america could have close to 45040% of all miners by the end of 2022 with the u.s. accounting for that share one important note, this could change the narrative around bitcoin's carbon footprint because the u.s. is known for its abundant sources of renewable energy >> which would be a nice turn from the concerns about mining in china kazakhst
