After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were
blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the ruins!
We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into
another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,
we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring
municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with
views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of
English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long
for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places
they've ever heard of.
We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a
snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and
absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid
made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the
city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces
jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of
the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time
oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the
sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's
especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate
doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also
saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the
site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to
be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,
but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.
Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues
uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;
the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered
from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues
resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.
It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of
Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup
and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of
turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then
headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only
ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some
impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth
pyramid and see it from all angles.
Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour
groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles
that had been used in the site.
Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back
to La Paz.

Will BBC Verify call Labour out for their lies? Don’t hold your breath
The licence fee funded fact checkers seem much more interested in witch hunting in Nigeria than in Rachel Reeves’s Budget
In a blizzard of claim and counterclaim, thank goodness for brilliantly qualified, lavishly funded truth seekers. As voters try to make sense of a momentous Budget, where better to turn than BBC Verify, which employs some 60 specialist journalists to separate fact from fiction?
No privately funded UK media organisation can compete with these extraordinary resources, directed all day, every day, at establishing the facts about an impressive range of questions and controversies.
Want to know whether Hurricane Milton was “engineered”? BBC Verify is your go-to. It has examined the “basic ingredients of a hurricane” and spoken to a dizzying array of meteorologists and other experts to disprove a social media conspiracy about deliberate cloud seeding.
How about a nature reserve in the Philippines, which the BBC tells us has been “lauded by top climate activists and film stars,” but was hit by a “concerted disinformation attack?” A team of forensic journalists at BBC Verify spent ages poring over Facebook accounts to figure out who was behind claims of illegal logging and land grabbing on the site. There’s even something about witch-hunters in Nigeria.
But on today’s historic Budget? At the time of writing, absolutely nada post-Budget.
It is hard to imagine more fertile territory for forensic examination than Rachel Reeves’s historic statement. After all, her plans have sweeping implications for every business and every household – in other words, everyone who pays for the BBC.
Her £40 billion tax heist was announced with all sorts of murky justifications – providing BBC Verify’s experts with plenty to get stuck into. That infamous “£22bn black hole in the public finances” would be an obvious place to start.
Until now, the Treasury was unable to say precisely how she had reached that figure, prompting accusations that the figure was plucked from thin air. Finally, the Chancellor has published what she called a “line by line breakdown.” With its ample resources, BBC Verify should be crawling all of it. Yet the nation awaits.
No matter – at least there’s something on Democratic Vice Presidential Candidate Tim Walz’s military record!
If getting to the bottom of the alleged £22 billion black hole is too big an ask, perhaps they could look into something more general, like whether the Chancellor can justifiably claim to have kept Labour’s election promises, “no ifs or buts”? That should be easy. Run the red rule over the manifesto, and cross-check with the Budget’s announcements. A handful of reporters whizzing through the document and Reeves’s speech should do the trick. Yet so far BBC Verify has nothing to say.
Looking at the operation, what is striking is how heavily dominated it is by overseas controversies. Doubtless some BBC licence payers will be fascinated by an analysis of satellite images of newly laid tarmac on a key road to Gaza. Those with a very keen interest in the US election may also be interested in whether Kamala Harris’s “price gouging plan” will “really help US consumers.”
However, the Corporation appears to have forgotten one very important fact: its work is funded by British taxpayers.
Many would much rather hear what its finest investigative brains have to say about the impact of today’s announcements on British consumers.

It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of
Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup
and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of
turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then
headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only
ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some
impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth
pyramid and see it from all angles.
Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour
groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles
that had been used in the site.
Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back
to La Paz.
After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were
blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the
ruins!
We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into
another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,
we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring
municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with
views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of
English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long
for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places
they've ever heard of.
We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a
snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and
absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid
made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the
city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces
jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of
the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time
oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the
sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's
especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate
doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also
saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the
site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to
be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,
but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.
Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues
uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;
the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered
from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues
resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.

NUCLEAR VERIFICATION
The IAEA applies technical measures, or ‘safeguards’, to verify that States are honouring their international legal obligations to use nuclear material only for peaceful purposes. Its independent verification work allows the IAEA to play an indispensable role in deterring the proliferation of nuclear weapons.
The implementation of the ‘Road-map for the Clarification of Past and Present Outstanding Issues regarding Iran’s Nuclear Program’ agreed between Iran and the IAEA and of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) — agreed between China, France, Germany, the Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, the High Representative of the European Union and Iran — have opened a new phase in relations between Iran and the IAEA.
The enhanced capabilities of the IAEA’s Safeguards Analytical Laboratories have strengthened the IAEA’s ability to conduct timely and independent analyses of nuclear material samples and ensure quality control to maintain confidence in analytical findings used for safeguards purposes.
Staff at the plutonium laboratory of the newly constructed IAEA Nuclear Material Laboratory in Seibersdorf, Austria. Completed in 2015, this laboratory will significantly enhance the IAEA’s capabilities for the analysis of nuclear and environmental samples.

This vehicle is a Verification Prototype for the 2014 L494 Range Rover Sport. These prototypes were the first vehicles that were representative of under body, upper body, powertrain and electrical architecture.
The camouflage on this vehicle was used to protect all aspects of the new vehicle’s design and included hard panels bolted to the body to change the lines of the vehicle physically, as well as the vinyl camouflage to distort the visual appearance. Interior camouflage was also used during the VP build phase and all test engineers had to follow strict guidelines on where vehicles were driven and parked during testing to prevent close-up high resolution photographs being leaked to the media in advance of the launch.
The VP phase of vehicles are used to sign off all engineering aspects of a new Land Rover product, ranging from extreme events tests to assess durability to stability control development tests undertaken on the frozen lakes of Sweden, and high lateral μ work on the Nürburgring and in the sands of Dubai. (Don’t know what μ is? Neither did we! It is the Split Coefficient of Friction, often referred to as Mu, which is all to do with what happens to a vehicle when the road friction differs significantly between the left and the right wheelpath, caused by changes in road surface or things such as black ice).

Jesús Malverde, sometimes known as the "narco-saint", is a folklore hero in the Mexican state of Sinaloa. He is not officially recognized as a saint by the Catholic Church.
The existence of Malverde has been historically verified, but according local legends he was a bandit killed by the authorities in 1909. The account of his life vary — sometimes he was a railway worker, while others he was a construction worker. There is also no agreement on the way he died, being variously hanged or shot. Moreover, sometimes it is said he was betrayed by a friend for a reward.
Since Malverde's death, he has earned a Robin Hood-type image, making him popular among Sinaloa's poor highland residents. The outlaw image has caused him to be adopted as the "patron saint" of the region's drug trafficking business, and the press have thus dubbed him "the narco-saint" .
However, his intercession is also sought by those with troubles of various kinds, and a number of supposed miracles have been locally attributed to him, including personal healings and blessings.
Malverde's shrine, near a railway track in Culiacán, Mexico, attracts thousands of devotees each year

After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were
blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the
ruins!
We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into
another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,
we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring
municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with
views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of
English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long
for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places
they've ever heard of.
We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a
snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and
absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid
made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the
city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces
jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of
the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time
oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the
sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's
especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate
doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also
saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the
site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to
be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,
but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.
Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues
uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;
the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered
from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues
resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.
It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of
Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup
and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of
turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then
headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only
ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some
impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth
pyramid and see it from all angles.
Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour
groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles
that had been used in the site.
Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back
to La Paz.

Dr. Robert Weems, emeritus paleontologist for the USGS verifies the recently discovered dinosaur track found on the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center campus.
This imprint shows the right rear foot of a nodosaur - a low-slung, spiny leaf-eater - apparently moving in haste as the heel did not fully settle in the cretaceous mud, according to dinosaur tracker Ray Stanford. It was found recently on NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center campus and is being preserved for study.
