Nearly half a century ago, the US Department of Energy launched a clean energy experiment beneath the University of Minnesota with a simple goal: storing hot water for months at a time in an aquifer more than 100 metres below ground.
The idea of the seasonal thermal energy storage was to tuck away excess heat produced in summer, then use it in the winter to warm buildings.

Every Sunday in Bogotá, streets across the city are closed to cars and transformed into urban parks. Shirtless rollerbladers with boomboxes drift leisurely in figures of eight, Lycra-clad cyclists zoom downhill and young children wobble nervously as they pedal on bikes for the first time.
This is perhaps the most visible component of a multipronged plan to clean up the Colombian capital’s air. At the turn of the century, Bogotá was one of Latin America’s most polluted cities, with concentrations of harmful particulates at seven times the World Health Organization’s limits. In the last decade the city of 8 million has started to turn that around, cutting air pollution by 24% between 2018 and 2024.

The story of Haglöfs is one of genuine craftsmanship, attention to detail, and attending to the needs of people who spend most of their time outdoors. It all started with Wiktor Haglöf in 1914. In times of hard work in the forests of Dalarna, equipment was often carried long distances and inspired by the needs he faced, the first Haglöfs backpack was produced. Within 20 years, they went from that first backpack to innovating and producing a full range of outdoor equipment. and since 1914, Haglöfs has been all about this uncompromising dedication to life outdoors. Haglöfs approached SDL to craft a distinct and forward-looking brand purpose alongside a refreshed brand platform. This included redefining their visual identity to honor the brand's rich heritage while projecting a bold vision for the future. The project is ongoing, in close collaboration with the Haglöfs brand team, with exciting touchpoints set to launch over the next year. From reimagined retail and digital experiences to
WASHINGTON (ANP) - Volgens de Amerikaanse president Donald Trump is de Russische president Vladimir Poetin bereid een week de aanvallen op de Oekraïense hoofdstad Kyiv en andere Oekraïense steden te staken tijdens de bittere kou in het land. Trump zei dat hij dat aan Poetin had gevraagd en die zou daarmee hebben ingestemd.
WILLEMSTAD (ANP) - De politie van Curaçao heeft donderdag het huis van de bekende Nederlandse honkbalinternational Jonathan Schoop (34) doorzocht. De huiszoeking maakt deel uit van een grote politieactie die in de nacht van woensdag op donderdag begon. Daarbij zijn ook een broodjeszaak en andere huizen doorzocht. Schoop zou op de lijst staan van internationals die in maart met het Koninkrijksteam aantreden bij de World Baseball Classic (WBC). De selectie wordt volgende week bekendgemaakt.
Zeven mannen en een vrouw zijn aangehouden. De politie meldt niet of Schoop een van de gearresteerden is. Vier wapens en een hoeveelheid munitie zijn in beslag genomen.
Schoop speelde van 2013 tot 2023 in de Amerikaanse topcompetitie, de Major League Baseball. Hij kwam uit voor Baltimore Orioles, Milwaukee Brewers, Minnesota Twins en Detroit Tigers. Hij kwam ook bij verschillende toernooien uit voor Nederland.

Het is nog niet duidelijk of Schoop in maart mee zal doen aan de WBC. Het Koninkrijksteam is ingedeeld in Groep D met Venezuela, Nicaragua, Israël en de Dominicaanse Republiek.
Schoop deed in september vorig jaar nog mee aan het EK in Rotterdam, waar hij samen met Didi Gregorius één van de publiekstrekkers was. Hij speelde in Oranje ook samen met zijn broer Sharlon, die in het verleden ook in de Verenigde Staten speelde.
For a project called Tag Clouds, street artist Mathieu Tremblin paints over graffiti tags and makes them more legible.
The result looks like when Word says that the Hardkaze and Aerosol fonts are used in the document you’re trying to open but are missing from your computer and you click OK to replace them with whatever’s available. I think the font above is Arial, which is perfect. I also like this faux-watermark piece he did:
