  패션계에서 질주는 새로운 열정을 불러일으키며, 바이커들과 캐리어 운전수들을 상기시키는 다양한 스타일이 런웨이에 등장했습니다. 스텔라 매캐트니는 거친 청바지와 믹스매칭된 탱ktop을 통해 간결하면서 강렬한 바이킹 룩을 제안했으며, 발렌시가는 반전된 형태의 가죽 재킷을 공개하여 주목받았습니다. 또한, 로에는 깃털 장식 드레스 위에 직접적으로 오토크래쉬 문양을 그리넣었습니다.
  <br/>
  라이더들의 분위기는 밝은 색조와 그래픽적 텍스트 요소들로부터 찾아 볼 수 있었습니다. 디올에서는 현대적이면서 세련되게 재구성된 경주용 조끼에 돋보임 효과를 내도록 글씨체 디테일을 추가하였고, 파코라반느(Paco Rabanne) 역시 심볼 같은 느낌의 그래피티 프린팅이 적용된 라이딩 스UIT를 출품하였습니다. 그리고 JUNYA WATANABE는 차량 실내 시트를 연상케하는 구조화 된 드레스를 선보였는데요, 이러한 작품들은 모두 새로운 계절 트랜디함과 함께 즉각적인 속도감을 전달합니다. 이렇게 하여 우리에게는 이미 길을 나설 준비가 되었다는 것을 알려줍니다.

<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 It might not be too distant in the future – since specialists developed a gadget that allows for 'taste transmission'.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Researchers have created an 'e-Taste' system that employs sensors to 'record' taste through electrical impulses.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 The information is subsequently sent to a distant device that recreates tastes by delivering chemicals to the mouth to mimic salty, sour, sweet, bitter, or umami sensations—or a combination thereof.

 The apparatus sits on the lower teeth and dispenses chemicals through gels to respond to triggers, potentially as far off as food or beverages from thousands of miles away.

Locals in Coastal Exclave Must Drive Through Canada to Reach the U.S.

Unknown border crossings, borders, business, local news, politics and government

<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Tensions are escalating in a beautiful Pacific Northwest seaside community where residents have to travel through
 Canada
 to reach the US.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Residents in Port Roberts, Washington, have found themselves entangled in the fallout from the continuing trade disputes between the two nations ever since the president took action.
 Donald Trump
 warned they would impose significant duties on an extensive range of products coming into the country from Canada.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 People residing in this tiny exclave, which forms part of a country but is physically cut off from its main territory by another nation’s land, are experiencing the immediate impact of the chaotic tariffs firsthand – particularly affecting their three eateries and lone supermarket.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 The unique five-square-mile community in Whatcom County is surrounded by water on three sides and has only one land connection to Canada.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Residents can either re-enter the US through one border crossing and about a 25 miles car ride to reach downtown Vancouver, British Columbia, or they can make their way through two border crossings and an approximate 25 mile car ride through Canada to then enter the US at Boundary Bay Border.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 More than 70 percent of properties are owned by Canadians, and more than 50 percent of an estimated 1,200 residents have dual citizenship, Wayne Lyle, the President of Point Roberts Chamber of Commerce, told the
 Canadian Press.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 The few local businesses and popular tourist attractions, including beaches, hiking trails and a golf course, have been suffering economically as many Canadians have boycotted the area ever since Trump's tariff threats and talks about making
 Canada the 51st state
 of the US.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Despite all their frustration, Americans said they don't blame Canadians for feeling that way, but they are still suffering tremendously from the fallout.
</p>

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BX5Bz" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BX5Bz.jpg"/>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'This was really devastating,' Tamra Hansen, a longtime resident and business owner in the exclave told the outlet. 'If we don't get the support from the Canadians, this town will die.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Point Roberts Fire Chief Christopher Carleton echoed Hansen's concerns, especially since many of his firefighters live across the border.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 "We should look after each other and show kindness to one another, rather than letting those who aren’t aware of our existence disturb the relationships we presently share," Carleton stated.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 In the meantime, Mark Nykolaichuk, residing in the Vancouver, B.C. region, expressed his hope of playing a role in maintaining the vibrancy of the community.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Nykolaichuk declines to visit the mainland United States, however, he has made an exception for Port Roberts due to its strong connections with Canada.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 He particularly visits the only grocery store in the exclave — the Point Roberts International Marketplace — to purchase food items he can prepare at his holiday house.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Due to U.S. customs regulations, raw meat isn't allowed across the border, forcing Nykolaichuk to buy it in town instead.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'Nobody wants to see this place shut down,' he said. 'If this place goes, where are the U.S. citizens going to eat? Where are they going to get their food from?'
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BX5BA" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BX5BA.jpg"/>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 The management of the marketplace has recently stated that their business has dropped by 20 to 30 percent.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Likewise, the local liquor outlet, Larry's Liquor Locker, has experienced a 40 percent drop in sales over the past month.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 The 75-year-old owner, Larry Musselwhite, has been confronting a difficult truth which he attributes to Trump.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'This is because of our elected president, who really doesn’t care about the common man and the struggles that we have to go through,' Musselwhite said.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'It greatly affects how I live my life.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Around 75 percent of Port Roberts residents voted for a presidential candidate other than Trump, according to 2024 election results.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Hansen, who owns two businesses in the area, said the political climate has severely impacted resident's relationships with neighboring Canadians.
</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'We’ve always gotten along and it’s just nonsensical because now the U.S. is going to suffer too,' the dual citizen said.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'I definitely feel for the Canadian people at this time because they’ve got their backs against the wall, really, and they have to retaliate.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 She manages a breakfast place named Saltwater Cafe and also operates a restaurant called The Pier.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Hansen employs 15 people whom she compensates directly. However, since February, her business has declined by 55% relative to the previous year. Some days, her revenue was so low that it did not reach even $100.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'Some companies are currently shutting down as we speak,' she mentioned.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'This is deeply touching for me since I have feelings for everyone residing here.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 In reaction to Trump's fluctuating tariff threats, Canada has
 pledged counter-tariffs against the US.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Residents have grown more irritated with Trump’s fluctuating imposition and cessation of tariffs, causing numerous discrepancies, particularly within their enterprises.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Hugh Wilson, a nearby property broker handling several Airbnb spots in the area, mentioned that he has been experiencing numerous cancelations recently.
</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 "Here, nobody knows the exact rules for certain each day. The border agents try their hardest to keep updated and pass this information along to regular folks like us who cross the border," Wilson explained.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Apart from imported products, people in Port Roberts are worried that Canada may introduce taxes on essential services if the situation worsens.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 "If things get tougher, they could easily shut off the water supply or electricity," remarked Brian Calder, who previously served as the president of the Point Roberts Chamber of Commerce.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'It all just relies on how much additional conflict is stirred up by Trump’s team.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Calder also backs how Canadians are handling the significant upheaval and threats, referring to Trump's approach as 'completely foolish and cruel.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 "And furthermore, you jeopardised the unity of Canada as a country," Calder stated regarding the president.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 'No one doubts that Canada will respond ... they have all the justification for doing so.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Lyle mentioned that the absence of Canadian tourists hasn't just affected businesses throughout the exclave; it has also fostered a rather 'disturbing' environment.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 The present political climate is downright frightening for our enterprises over there. Ninety percent of our business comes from Canada," Lyle clarified.
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BWTBH" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BWTBH.jpg"/>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 He likened the scenario to kids experiencing their parents' divorce, explaining to the audience that
 Canadian Press
 : 'I talked to someone last week, and they said they could best sum it up by saying Point Roberts is basically the children going through a divorce proceeding, the parents are the two countries, so we're powerless.'
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Calder and other locals are presently attempting to resolve the problem by contacting both the British Columbia premier and the governor of Washington.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 Jed Holmes, a spokesperson for Whatcom County, informed AP that they are engaging with Washington state’s representatives in Congress in D.C. to tackle the escalating problems in Point Roberts due to the worsening relations between the U.S. and Canada.
</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">
 "I realise that people expect us to take further action, yet it's quite difficult to pinpoint what significant steps a local government can undertake to alter this situation on an international scale," Holmes stated.

AIKEYME Drives India's Naval Push in Africa, Countering China

Unknown asia, foreign policy, international relations, military, politics

India's naval diplomacy aims at fostering trust and providing a 'non-threatening' alternative to China's investments, according to analysts.
<p>
 India
 is scheduled to commence its initial significant joint naval operation with 10 African countries next month, indicating its expanding strategic aspirations.
</p>
<p>
 The Africa-India Key Maritime Exercise (AIKEYME), will be conducted off the coast of Dar es Salaam.
 Tanzania
 In mid-April, amidst New Delhi’s expanding military engagement on a continent where China has historically held significant influence.
</p>
<p>
 The Indian Defence Minister, Rajnath Singh, will open the six-day drill, where India will be co-hosting alongside the Tanzania People’s Defence Force. This gathering will unite navies from various countries including Comoros, Djibouti, Eritrea, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Seychelles, and South Africa.

 This exercise represents a significant move in India’s maritime diplomacy, strengthening its position as a regional security contributor and enhancing both strategic and economic connections with Africa, says Robinder Sachdev, an expert in international relations and the founding president of the Imagindia Institute, a Delhi-based research organization.
</p>
<div class="image-inline-container">
 <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BW5gG" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BW5gG.jpg"/>
</div>
<p>
 India’s naval activity in the area isn’t completely unprecedented. The nation currently runs a coastal radar monitoring system across Mauritius, Seychelles, and the Maldives as part of its Integrated Coastal Surveillance System. However, “AIKEYME enhances the level of combined operational preparedness” for these facilities, allowing quicker and better-coordinated reactions to marine dangers, according to Sachdev.
</p>
<p>
 He stated that strategically, this exercise strengthens India’s position as a dependable and non-compellable maritime ally, notably in nations such as Mozambique and Tanzania, where India maintains significant stakes in liquefied natural gas (LNG) and port development.
</p>
<p>
 Sachdev mentioned that AIKEYME also held significant geopolitical importance as it aligned with the policy objectives of the
 United States
 And other democratic allies were mentioned. He stated, "The U.S. has continually urged partners such as India to assume more significant responsibilities for regional security, particularly within the Indian Ocean and Indo-Pacific areas."
</p>
<h3>
 A 'managerial role'
</h3>
<p>
 The scheduling of AIKEYME is not coincidental. China, with its vast
 Belt and Road Initiative
 , has solidified its position as Africa’s biggest trading partner and lender, according to official data indicating that commerce between them hit $295 billion last year. China has additionally set up a military presence in Djibouti and significantly invested in East African ports and infrastructure.
</p>
<p>
 India’s action is seen as a deliberate strategy to offset Beijing's increasing dominance, according to experts. "East Africa holds significant strategic importance for India across various sectors such as energy resources, and within this framework, this specific joint naval drill serves to enhance India's reputation as a trustworthy ally in Africa,” stated C. Uday Bhaskar, a former Indian navy official and director of the Society for Policy Studies research institute.
</p>
<p>
 He recognized the difficulties involved, though. Given that China's economic assets significantly outweigh those of India, Bhaskar suggested that Delhi should concentrate on fostering goodwill instead of attempting to compete with China on a purely financial basis.
</p>
<p>
 "It would be perfect if India and China could both collaborate with Africa, but achieving this would demand significant political acumen and cooperation from both parties," he noted.
</p>
<div class="image-inline-container">
 <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BW2TC" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BW2TC.jpg"/>
</div>
<p>
 Parallel to AIKEyme, another pioneering effort known as the Indian Ocean Ship Sagar is underway. Between mid-April and early May, the offshore patrol ship INS Sunayana will operate with a mixed team comprising Indian naval officers alongside members from nine African countries such as Kenya, Madagascar, and South Africa. During this period, these combined teams will perform collaborative monitoring operations within the exclusive economic zones of Tanzania, Mozambique, Mauritius, and Seychelles. Additionally, they plan to make stops at ports like Dar es Salaam, Nacala, Port Louis, Port Victoria, and Malé.
</p>
<p>
 Dongkeun Lee, a defense studies specialist from the Strategic and Defence Studies Centre at the Australian National University, noted that this initiative underscored India's ambition to assume a "leadership position" within the Indian Ocean region.
</p>
<p>
 He stated that even though the Western Indian Ocean is frequently not regarded as part of the Indo-Pacific region—especially by the U.S., India’s definition of the Indo-Pacific encompasses this area. Additionally, several African nations participating in naval drills are situated in the Western Indian Ocean, signaling India's desire to take on a leadership position throughout the larger region.
</p>
<p>
 Lee stated unequivocally that China intended to broaden its Belt and Road investments throughout Africa. This development implies that programs like AIKEME and Sagar can be seen as part of New Delhi’s approach designed to counterbalance China’s growing sway over the wider Indian Ocean area.
</p>
<div class="image-inline-container">
 <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BVREM" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BVREM.jpg"/>
</div>
<p>
 The importance of AIKEYME has grown as it comes after "Peace-Unity 2024," a one-month joint military exercise conducted in mid-2024 involving China, Tanzania, and Mozambique. According to Paul Nantulya, a research fellow at the Africa Centre for Strategic Studies affiliated with the National Defense University in the U.S., this drill marked China’s biggest military presence in Africa since 1997.
</p>
<p>
 "It appears AIKEYME was intentionally made bigger than Peace-Unity 2024. As China hasn’t held an exercise in Africa for 2025 yet, it will be intriguing to see their response to this Indian endeavor," Nantulya remarked.
</p>
<p>
 India's economic involvement in Africa began before China's current activities on the continent, he stated. "India boasts a significantly larger native populace that forms an integral part of Africa’s demographic, having arrived in the 17th century and actively participating in the region's political landscape, particularly during its fight for freedom," explained Nantulya.
</p>
<p>
 This indicates that they possess an edge since they assimilate with African communities and turn into something akin to 'native,' which Chinese enclaves do not achieve.
</p>
<h3>
 Economic, strategic stakes
</h3>
<p>
 According to the Confederation of Indian Industry, India’s current trade with Africa amounts to $83 billion, with approximately 90 percent of this volume being conducted through maritime channels. In the last ten years, New Delhi has provided roughly $12 billion in credit to 42 different African countries, which constitutes nearly 40 percent of its total international credit commitments.
</p>
<p>
 However, commentators indicate that India’s initiatives appear modest when measured against China’s substantial commitments, comprising 643 direct projects valued at $150 billion, as reported by the Hinrich Foundation, a trade sustainability organization based in Singapore.
</p>
<p>
 Sayantan Haldar, a maritime-security specialist with the Observer Research Foundation think tank based in Delhi, views these naval drills as an essential move for India to position itself as a key security ally in Africa.
</p>
<p>
 "Towards this objective, India’s strategic presence within the area is expected to gain significant enhancement," Haldar stated, emphasizing that converting this progress into an economic aspect would be crucial. He pointed out that India's main hurdle was China's extensive economic involvement in Africa.
</p>
<div class="blockquote-quote">
 In order to rival China in Africa, India should refine its strategy and promote stronger economic collaborations.
</div>
<div class="blockquote-author">
 Sayantan Haldar, maritime-security expert
</div>
<p>
 “Africa has been striving for consistent development collaborations,” Haldar stated. “In this regard, China is viewed as a significant ally. For India to rival China in Africa, it must refine its strategy and promote stronger economic ties. Nonetheless, enhancing maritime security cooperation could serve as a vital foundation for India’s efforts in Africa.”
</p>
<p>
 African countries are facing challenges such as drug smuggling, unauthorized fishing, and piracy—areas where India’s naval proficiency could offer valuable assistance, according to Bhaskar.
</p>

 </strong>
 – Salah satu faktor paling signifikan yang menyebabkan kenaikannya
 kadar asam urat
 Adalah penerapan diet dengan memasukkan makanan dan minuman yang kaya akan zat purin.
</p>
<p>
 Berikut ini penjelasannya: Purin merupakan zat kimia alami yang terdapat di dalam tubuh serta beragam jenis makanan dan minuman; bahkan ada pula sejumlah variasi minuman dengan kadar purin yang cukup tinggi.
</p>
<p>
 Oleh karena itu, supaya asam urat tidak berulang, perlu diperhatikan jenis minuman yang diminum setiap hari, terlebih lagi harus dihindari minuman yang memiliki kadar purin yang tinggi.
</p>
<p>
 Lantas, apa saja
 Minuman dengan kadar purin yang tinggi tersebut.
 ?
</p>
<p>
 Berikut adalah beberapa hal yang perlu dikendalikan.
</p>
<h2>
 Minuman yang memiliki kandungan purin tinggi dapat memicu asam urat.
</h2>
<p>
 Berdasarkan informasi dari beragam referensi, berikut merupakan beberapa tipe minuman dengan kandungan purin yang cukup tinggi dan harus dikurangi konsumsinya bagi mereka yang menderita asam urat.
</p>
<h3>
 1. Alkohol, khususnya bir
</h3>
<p>
 Bir merupakan salah satu jenis minuman dengan kandungan purin tertinggi. Konsumsi bir bisa menyebabkan peningkatan tajam level asam urat dalam darah akibar karena adanya zat purin berjumlah tinggi di dalamnya.
</p>
<p>
 Di samping itu, alkohol pada bir menghambat pengeluaran asam urat lewat ginjal, yang menyebabkan tingkatan asam urat di dalam darah makin naik.
</p>
<p>
 Untuk orang yang mengidap asam urat, lebih baik menyingkirkan minum bir agar terhindar dari serangan rasa sakit akibat asam urat.
</p>
<h3>
 2. Minuman beralkohol lainnya
</h3>
<p>
 Di luar bir, jenis alkohol lain seperti anggur serta minuman keras juga bisa menyebabkan kenaikan kadar asam urat. Alkohol ini membantu meningkatkan pembentukan asam urat sementara itu menghambat pelepasannya lewat ginjal.
</p>
<p>
 Meski demikian, anggur merah yang biasanya dipandang sebagai lebih bermanfaat kesehatan, masih membawa potensi bahaya bagi mereka dengan kondisi asam urat. Karena itu, penghindaran minuman beralkohol menjadi tindakan utama dalam menstabilkan tingkat asam urat seseorang.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<h3>
 3. Minuman yang manis serta bersoda
</h3>
<p>
 Minuman beralkohol, terutama jenis yang memiliki kadar fruktosa yang tinggi seperti sirup, cola, dan jus siap saji, bisa memperbesar kemungkinan peningkatan asam urat di dalam tubuh.
</p>
<p>
 Fruktosa, yaitu bentuk gula alami yang umumnya dimasukkan ke dalam minuman berperisa, bisa memicu peningkatan kadar asam urat di dalam tubuh.
</p>
<p>
 Saat fruktosa diolah dalam tubuh, ia menghasilkan asam urat sebagai hasil sekunder, dengan potensi untuk menimbulkan akumulasi asam urat.
</p>
<p>
 Menukar minuman berpengaruh dengan air biasa atau teh alami tanpa tambahan gula merupakan alternatif yang lebih sehat.
</p>
<h3>
 4. Minuman berenergi serta minuman untuk olahraga
</h3>
<p>
 Minuman berenergi serta minuman untuk olahraga umumnya memiliki kandungan gula tambahan dan bahan-bahan lain yang bisa menambah tingkat asam urat dalam tubuh.
</p>
<p>
 Walaupun minuman tersebut menyediakan energi seketika, namun bisa juga mengakibatkan kenaikan produksi asam urat.
</p>
<p>
 Apabila Anda butuh minuman pengisi ulang sesudah berolahraga, pilihan terbaiknya adalah air biasa ataupun air kelapa karena kedua jenis ini jauh lebih baik untuk kesehatan serta rendah purin.
</p>
<h2>
 Saran untuk mengurangi peluang terkena penyakit asam urat
</h2>
<p>
 Agar dapat menghindari peningkatan tingkat asam urat, lebih baik meningkatkan penggunaan air mineral yang bisa mendukung dalam membuang zat asam ini lewat urine. Di samping itu, harus menurunkan porsi dari makanan dan minuman berisi senyawa purin, juga kendalikan konsumsi bir maupun cairan bertepung gula.
</p>
<p>
 Kandungan purin yang tinggi pada minuman seperti bir, alkohol, minuman manis, serta minuman berenergi bisa menyebabkan kenaikan tingkat asam urat di dalam tubuh.
</p>
<p>
 Untuk mencegah atau menurunkan konsumsi minuman tersebut amatlah krusial bagi orang dengan asam urat supaya bisa menjauhkan diri dari rasa sakit dan inflamasi pada sendi.
</p>
<p>
 Mengambil pilihan minuman yang baik bagi kesehatan, misalnya air biasa atau teh alami tanpa tambahan gula, merupakan tindakan cerdas dalam merawat kondisi fisik serta menghindari risiko asam urat. (*)

We sent a Tesla fan to test drive the all-new Model Y – here’s what they thought

Unknown autos, cars, product reviews, technology, tesla

<p>
 Ben Franklin is a relatively new
 Tesla
 Model Y owner. He’s had his Long Range All-Wheel Drive car for about a year now. Like most Model Y owners, he’s curious to know how much better – if at all – the all-new Model Y is and whether he should consider an upgrade.
</p>
<p>
 Ben went along to the Tesla store in Kierland Commons near his home in Scottsdale Arizona, where the new Model Y is already available for test drive. There he joined the queue and took his turn in a brand new, Launch Series Model Y with pearl white paint and Tesla’s Full Self-Driving, which he put to good use.
</p>
<p>
 So what did Ben think, firstly with the looks? “I like the looks,’ he said. “I like the front end with the new front light bar, and I like the design touch that they did on the side mirrors with a tiny bit of aerodynamic improvement.
</p>
<p>
 “I like the looks of both cars. I honestly find my Model Y extremely attractive still, and I find the new one... well, I find it a little bit more mainstream. That gives me a slight feeling of disappointment because I prefer the more radical look of the old car.
</p>
<p>
 “Everyone seems to be doing these full-width light bars now and it might be harder to pick the Tesla out from something like a Hyundai.”
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1zZThX" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1zZThX.jpg"/>
<p>
 Ben was more positive when he got inside. “The car feels so much more solid and for some reason it just feels bigger inside. I know it’s not, but maybe it’s the new materials and slightly updated design.
</p>
<p>
 “When you get in the new one, you're immediately impressed with the feeling of solidity. And I think the screen is improved. It seems much sharper, at least to me.
</p>
<p>
 I believe the materials have gotten better. The seats are now more supportive and slightly firmer. Also, the steering wheel has been altered, though I’m not sure why Tesla thinks they need to keep changing things.
</p>
<p>
 One enhancement that really caught my attention was the addition of a microphone button on the steering wheel for voice commands—I consider this a significant improvement. Additionally, I quickly discovered that the scroll wheel can be used to activate or deactivate the self-driving or autopilot feature.
</p>
<p>
 “So there are now three buttons on the right side of the steering wheel: one is the speaker, one is a scroll. The third one, which I really, really like, allows you to operate the cameras from the steering wheel. You can set it up so that you push the button and get an all-around view, which personally I find very useful.
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1zZR4V" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1zZR4V.jpg"/>
<p>
 A major complaint from drivers of the latest Tesla Model 3 centres around the absence of stalks on either side of the steering wheel. Instead of a traditional left-side turn signal stalk, the Model 3 features control buttons integrated into the steering wheel itself. In response, Tesla introduced a new indicator stalk for the Model Y positioned to the left of the steering wheel; however, this model lacks a stalk on the right-hand side which was previously used for operating both the gear selection and Autopilot functions. How did all of this affect Ben’s experience behind the wheel?
</p>
<p>
 My car features a stalk on the right side, whereas the new Model Y only includes the turn signal on the left. Initially, I expected to strongly dislike not having a driving stalk on the right; however, I was comfortable with using the drive and park buttons on the screen instead. To move forwards or backwards, you simply scroll up and down on the screen. It seems that opening the door will also engage the parking function.
</p>
<p>
 Tesla claims that the new Model Y is over 20 per cent quieter on the move, thanks to new acoustic glass and improvements to body rigidity, too. Did Ben agree?
</p>
<p>
 It's considerably more peaceful," he remarked. "I observed this immediately upon entering and closing the door, but it becomes even more noticeable when you're in motion.
</p>
<p>
 Tesla's attempts to enhance the driving experience – which was a major concern for owners of the initial Model Y – seem to have been successful as well. "The ride felt much nicer," commented Ben. "It certainly seems more comfortable now. I also found the steering to be considerably smoother."
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1zZR4X" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1zZR4X.jpg"/>
<p>
 Tesla has also asserted significant improvements in general quality, a point that Ben highlighted. "As I was driving my car along Scottsdale Road towards the test drive, I could hear various rattles," he mentioned. "However, when I took the new Model Y over the same section of road, there wasn’t a single rattle."
</p>
<p>
 Ben is already quite fond of the Full Self-Driving technology in his personal Model Y, and he shared his experience saying, "What surprised me about Tesla was that I ended up driving less and less. Instead, I found myself utilizing the Full Self- Driving feature increasingly often."
</p>
<p>
 I believe that if there is any enhancement in Full Self-Driving with the new vehicle, it's due to the chassis responding more favourably to commands compared to the current model.
</p>
<p>
 Ben also considers the range to be crucial, mentioning that the improvement in this aspect was a key factor in his decision to upgrade. "During my test drive of the new model, I found its estimated range to be around 326 miles," he explained. "Even over time, I believe the newer version will still maintain an impressive range exceeding 300 miles. Currently, my present Model Y manages slightly less than 300 miles."
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1zZR50" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1zZR50.jpg"/>
<p>
 In regard to this crucial choice, will Ben opt for an upgrade from his present Model Y to the latest version? "Absolutely," he stated. "I am really excited about it: the extended battery life, enhanced comfort while driving, the quieter interior, and I particularly like the fresh control buttons on the steering wheel."
</p>
<p>
 Ben is even beginning to consider finalizing the deal as quickly as possible. "From what I gather, in the US, Tesla will waive the last three months of your lease and permit you to upgrade."
</p>
<p>
 “Without a doubt, I will do that.”
</p>
<p>
 The Tesla Model Y has become available for purchase in the US, where pre-orders can be placed for the Launch Series model priced at $61,630 prior to any deductions from federal tax credits. Over in the UK, the same Launch Series vehicle retails for £60,990.

  Has emerged as a leader in motorcycle connectivity. This brand offers an extensive range of Bluetooth devices, and now includes several intelligent helmets among its products. Their most recent launch, the Phantom model, elevates smart helmet technology further.
 </p>
 <p>
  It appears quite impressive with lots of advanced technology included. However, does it live up to expectations? Let's examine it more closely.
 </p>
 <p>
  <a href="https://www.sena.com/en-us/product/phantom/" rel="noopener">
   Sena’s Phantom
  </a>
  It's a full-face helmet designed to offer you smooth communication, top-notch sound quality, and enhanced safety features—without requiring additional equipment. From the start, this model caters particularly well to those seeking a sleek and uncluttered look while still benefiting from advanced technology.
 </p>
 <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/video/AA1zZ2Vk" data-reference="video"/>
 <p>
  The Phantom represents an enhanced and seamlessly integrated iteration of what Sena excels at. Featuring Mesh Intercom 3.0 and WAVE Intercom, this system offers numerous ways for you to maintain communication within your group. Regardless of whether you’re part of a sizable biking formation or simply conversing with someone onboard, the device ensures a reliable and adaptable link.
 </p>
 <p>
  Similar to many high-end helmet communication systems, sound quality plays a crucial role here. Sena joined forces with none other than
  <a href="https://www.rideapart.com/news/599004/sena-quantum-srl-mesh-ext-comms/?utm_source=msn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=msn-feed">
   Harman Kardon
  </a>
  For high-quality speakers and microphone technology, both music, phone calls, and intercom conversations should be delivered clearly and sharply. Additionally, there’s an AI-driven noise-cancellation feature designed to reduce wind and traffic sounds, enhancing communication quality and possibly reducing tiredness during extended trips.
 </p>
 <p>
  In addition to enhancing communication capabilities, Sena incorporated safety lighting features into the Phantom helmet. This includes both front and rear lights, where the latter function as brake lights activated during deceleration. While not entirely groundbreaking—since similar technology is available from competing brands and standalone options like an accelerometer-based brake light can also be purchased on Amazon—it will still be intriguing to observe how effectively these additions perform within Sena’s latest model.

  Sena has ensured that the Phantom can get Over-the-Air (OTA) updates through the Sena Motorcycles App. There’s no need to connect your helmet to your laptop or desktop; simply update it conveniently with a touch of your smartphone.
 </p>
 <p>
  However, the most appealing aspect of this helmet might be its design. In contrast to other Bluetooth devices that necessitate an external, oversized attachment, the Phantom maintains a sleek profile. Its buttons are seamlessly integrated, and two internal antennas enhance signal reach. Even with these advanced features, Sena successfully incorporated a bigger power source without sacrificing wearer comfort.
 </p>
 <p>
  This high-tech helmet comes at an apparently reasonable cost of $499 USD. Given all the technology packed inside, it offers quite good value for money. Therefore, Sena’s Phantom appears to be a solid choice for those seeking a helmet that combines safety with contemporary connectivity features. For cyclists fond of group rides or needing dependable communication tools during their trips, it could certainly warrant consideration.
 </p>
 <p>
  However, what are your thoughts? Would you incorporate this into your usual equipment lineup?

Top 5 Full-Fat Foods That Boost Gut Health – Including Delicious Recipes

<p>
 Gut health
 It plays an enormous role in my daily existence. This field wasn't around back when I was studying medicine roughly ten years ago; we never received instruction on the gut microbiome’s functions. The gut was described as quite a passive organ: it takes in nutrients, nothing more. Frankly, it seemed rather dull at the time.
</p>
<p>
 However, as I specialized in gastroenterology, science concurrently progressed with new insights into how the gut microbiome is a highly dynamic living ecosystem and significantly influences various bodily functions. This led us to discover that
 The brain and intestines are interconnected.
 Through microorganisms, nerve signals, and hormonal influences, along with the practical outcomes of these interactions on health and illness. This has truly been a revelation for me since I had been attempting to bridge the gap between diet and digestive well-being; the gut microbiome served as the crucial connection linking them together. Additionally, this newfound knowledge has provided profound insights into comprehending my patients and their conditions.
</p>
<p>
 When we talk about
 gut health
 When we refer to the bacteria, fungi, and yeasts that mainly reside in your small and large intestine, though scientifically speaking, your gut encompasses everything from your mouth to your anus.
</p>
<p>
 We possess over a hundred trillion gut bacteria, which we often call microbes and collectively refer to as our gut microbiome; together, these organisms tip the scales at more than 2 kilograms (4 pounds).
</p>
<p>
 Their role involves extracting nutrients from the food we consume, sustaining a healthy intestinal lining, preventing inflammation, and interacting with the remainder of our body via nerve signals, hormonal activity, and immune responses. We now consider our microbiome an unseen organ due to its substantial impact on our overall bodily functions and well-being.
</p>
<p>
 The meals you consume can affect the makeup of these microorganisms. Studies indicate that a greater variety in your gut microbiome (which means having many differing types) tends to be beneficial.
 species of gut bugs
 The more variety in our diet, the better, as it helps reduce the risk of weight gain, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and surprisingly, depression and anxiety. Thus, the food we consume and the health of our gut microbiome can genuinely impact the rest of our bodily functions.
</p>
<p>
 Fat plays a crucial role in overall well-being. It serves as a vital macronutrient providing essential energy. Additionally, beneficial fats form the foundation of excellent digestive health.

<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-normal">
 The five most beneficial high-fat foods for your gut health
</h2>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 1. Full-fat Greek yogurt
</h2>
<p>
 Using full-fat Greek yogurt is an excellent method for including fermented dairy items in your meals and supporting digestive well-being.
</p>
<p>
 It is a fermented and probiotic food, meaning that it’s full of beneficial bugs and works to restore the balance of bacteria in our gut for the better. As an added bonus, it also has a lot of protein in it, which helps with fullness.

 This is why yogurt is a key ingredient in all of my recipes, like in my coronation chicken pasta salad, where it is used as a mayonnaise replacement.
</p>
<p>
 To pick a
 healthy yogurt
 , check the ingredients list and pick one that has only yogurt or milk and a live culture listed.
</p>
<p>
 I wouldn’t recommend low-fat yogurt. Once the fat is gone, emulsifiers have to be added back in to stabilise the structure, which aren’t good for our health. Likewise, flavoured yogurts have sweeteners and additives that are thought to harm gut health.
</p>
<p>
 To add flavour to plain Greek yogurt, I blend frozen fruit and mix it in. It’s all natural, not got any added nasties and kids will love it as well.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 2. Extra virgin olive oil
</h2>
<p>
 I’m generous with olive oil, drizzling it on most of my meals.
</p>
<p>
 That’s because, while it is high in fat, these are good fats, and it’s full of polyphenols and other helpful ingredients that act as antioxidants in the body, which are important for our gut and heart health.
</p>
<p>
 Antioxidants and other bioactive molecules in olive oil neutralise harmful molecules called free radicals, which can cause inflammation and damage cells in the gut lining.
</p>
<p>
 If the lining of the gut becomes compromised, persistent mild inflammation can occur. Numerous researchers think this ongoing inflammation could result in various bowel-related issues such as swelling and tummy pain — often referred to as the "leaky gut syndrome".
</p>
<p>
 Nonetheless, I typically avoid heating olive oil to high temperatures in my dishes because doing so breaks down the fats and produces compounds that may not be good for our well-being.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 3. Cottage cheese
</h2>
<p>
 I'm thrilled that cottage cheese has undergone a transformation. It wasn't popular until about one or two years ago when people discovered that it's high in protein, affordable, and tasty.
</p>
<p>
 It undergoes fermentation and may include probiotics – beneficial microorganisms that enhance gut biodiversity – to aid digestive well-being. It serves as a delicious, simple foundation that you can customize with various ingredients. I always keep some at home.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 4. Fish
</h2>
<p>
 I often prepare salmon and mackerel since, besides being incredibly tasty, they are rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
</p>
<p>
 These kinds of fats have consistently been associated with improved heart health and decreased inflammation, even within the gut lining. They also aid in repairing damage. Some
 studies
 propose that omega-3s might also have a direct beneficial effect on our gut microbiome.
</p>
<p>
 Linseed and chia seeds are among the botanical sources of omega-3 fatty acids that I incorporate into my dishes as well.
</p>

<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 5. Sour cream
</h2>
<p>
 Sour cream excels at enhancing the flavor of dishes, thanks to its slight fermentation which introduces beneficial bacteria that boost microbial variety in your digestive system. Additionally, it offers a light and delightful taste with an added tanginess to meals.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-normal">
 Gut-friendly eats for filling up your pantry
</h2>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 Fresh fruit and vegetables
</h2>
<p>
 Since they are rich in fiber, which nourishes beneficial bacteria in the intestines, fresh fruits and veggies are essential for maintaining a healthy digestive system. This means I dedicate quite a bit of time during my trips to the grocery store to browsing these sections. Frequently, I visit the clearance area to pick out items that will expire within the next day. These can later be sliced and stored in the freezer at home.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 Tins and packets
</h2>
<p>
 Pre-cooked grain packs can be a real time-saver. Although they cost more than their dry counterparts, having them stored away in your pantry ensures you’ve got something ready for speedy meals. This way, you avoid resorting to getting takeaways. Additionally, I ensure my shelves are well-stocked with cans of lentils, chickpeas, and legumes along with bags of nuts and seeds.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 Frozen
</h2>
<p>
 Frozen peas, carrots, cauliflower, spinach, onions, and fruits are essential. Additionally, I discover that using frozen garlic greatly speeds up my cooking process and requires just a few minutes to thaw.
</p>
<h2 class="u-heading-size-medium u-heading-style-colour">
 Condiments and spices
</h2>
<p>
 Curry paste, harissa pasta, and gochujang paste offer quick and easy flavours. By shopping around, you can discover options without additives and unwanted ingredients.
</p>

 to conserve funds, hours, and even cut down on waste.
</p>
<p>
 Certainly, your invoice might appear bigger because you're purchasing more items at one time; however, typically, buying in bulk comes with a reduced cost per unit. Additionally, acquiring a substantial quantity of something means you won’t need to visit the store as frequently, produce as much waste from packaging, and maintain ample supplies ready for possible contingencies.

</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 1. Nuts
</h2>
<p>
 Peanuts are both healthful and adaptable as snacks, though they often come with a higher price tag. Buying them in bulk is a smart choice. If kept in an sealed container within a cool, dry cupboard, nuts will stay fresh for several months.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 2. Diapers and wipes
</h2>
<p>
 The expenses for diapers and wipes can really accumulate—especially when you have multiple children who aren't toilet trained yet. Fortunately, numerous large wholesale retailers produce their own lines of diapers and wipes, along with offering sought-after options such as Pampers and Huggies. Certain diaper brands, including
 Honest

<h2 class="body-h2">
 3. Paper products
</h2>
<p>
 No one enjoys using their well-deserved cash on
 paper towels
 and
 toilet paper
 However, these items are essentials found in every home. Seek out products that come in multipacks or large roll sets to maximize value for money. Additionally, consider purchasing from warehouse stores as they often provide their own brand options, typically at lower costs compared to well-known brands.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 4. Detergent for laundry and dishes
</h2>
<p>
 When shopping for

 and
 dish detergent

 From toys and flashlights to remotes, many devices at home rely on batteries. Purchasing them in large quantities helps cut costs and guarantees they’re readily available when needed.

 Larger bags, boxes, and bundled cans are ideal choices for pet owners who prefer well-known brands.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 10. Supplements

<p>
 Supplements and vitamins may become expensive swiftly; however, those who purchase bigger amounts upfront tend to save significantly over time—especially when your preferred brand goes on discount.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 11. Protein bars
</h2>
<p>
 Protein bars
 Are a handy and easily carried treat that can assist you in maintaining your energy levels all day long. Look out for manufacturers that provide multipacks for greater diversity.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 12. Snack packs

<p>
 Likewise, snack packs—such as small pouches of chips or cookies—are ideal for busy families always on the move. These are also handy for assembling packed lunches.
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1rpckh" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1rpckh.jpg"/>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 13. Salt and Pepper
</h2>
<p>
 A lot of spices might dull in flavor before you even use them, yet salt and pepper are so adaptable that choosing larger containers makes sense. That way, you will consistently have plenty available.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 14. Beverages in bottles or cans
</h2>
<p>
 Disregard the six-packs – they're short-lived and often come with unnecessary packaging. When purchasing water, sparkling water, soda, or sport drinks, consider getting a pallet instead, as it provides numerous units in a single package.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 15. Vanilla
</h2>
<p>
 Vanilla extract is quite expensive, and although you may not use it very frequently, purchasing a larger bottle can save you money in the long run.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 16. Cheese
</h2>
<p>
 Cube, slice, and shred various types of cheeses as they are essential to keep stocked. Mozzarella sticks also make an excellent choice for hectic households and those who pack lunches regularly. Remember to verify the expiry dates and store any surplus in the freezer until required.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 17. Over-the-counter medication
</h2>
<p>
 You can purchase painkillers, antihistamines, and first-aid essentials in large quantities, but keep an eye on their expiration dates. However, we do not suggest filling your whole medicine cabinet with bulk purchases. Instead, opt for frequently used items such as febrifuges or non-expiring products like dressings.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 18. Office supplies
</h2>
<p>
 Pens, paper, and toner cartridges should be prioritized for stockpiling. While supplies such as sticky notes, paper clips, and staples can also be found in bulk, they might only make sense to purchase in larger amounts if your usage of these items is quite extensive.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 19. Light bulbs
</h2>
<p>
 You can never predict when someone might get burned out. Maintaining a stockpile will not just be helpful during those times, but it'll also ease the financial burden somewhat.
</p>
<h2 class="body-h2">
 20. Wrapping paper
</h2>
<p>
 Save yourself the trouble of rushing to the corner shop before a birthday celebration or festive season by keeping a supply of several large rolls of gift wrap, along with some ribbons and bows. Additionally, consider purchasing an assortment of greeting cards suitable for various occasions.
