  Dubai Police Advance Aerial Response Capabilities with Hoverbike Integration. Hover Bike/ Flying Police Bike DUBAI – [September 14, 2025] In a continuing effort to solidify its position as a global leader in law enforcement technology, the Dubai Police General Headquarters is moving forward with the testing and integration of a new "drone bike," or hoverbike, into its operational fleet. This initiative underscores the force's commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to enhance response times and accessibility in a rapidly urbanizing landscape. The vehicle, a battery-powered, vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft developed by California-based manufacturer Hoversurf, is essentially a piloted drone designed for rapid deployment. The primary objective for its use is to serve as a first-responder unit, enabling officers to bypass dense traffic and reach emergency scenes in hard-to-reach areas. According to a spokesperson for the Dubai Police Artificial Intel...

 Latest news on financial literacy highlights a growing focus on the issue from various sectors, including government, educational institutions, and non-profit organisations. Here is a summary of the latest developments: Government and Policy Initiatives Student Loan Warnings: The Trump administration has announced a new initiative to provide prospective student borrowers and their families with clear warnings about the risks of federal student loans. The U.S. Department of Education's Office of the Ombudsman will lead the effort, which is intended to help students make more informed decisions about borrowing. This comes as federal student loan debt in the US approaches $1.7 trillion. However, some advocates are concerned that this initiative may divert attention from more urgent issues, such as the large backlog of borrower applications for income-driven repayment plans. U.S. Financial Literacy and Education Commission:** The Financial Literacy and Education Commission (FLEC), an ...

Clemens Fischer has never smoked pot in his life, but he believes his new experimental drug could reap billions in sales—and change millions of lives.   Clemens Fischer T here is nothing sexy  about the next big thing in weed. Vertanical, the Munich-based pharmaceutical company, is developing a cannabinoid-based extract to treat chronic pain it hopes will soon become an approved medicine, first in the European Union and eventually in the United States. The drug, currently called Ver-01, is not for stoners—each dose is low enough to avoid getting most patients high, the company says, but it packs enough low levels of cannabinoids (including THC) to relieve pain. And if it is approved, it won’t be found at a cannabis dispensary either. Instead, Clemens Fischer, the 50-year-old medical doctor who is the   founder of Vertanical, hopes it will become the first cannabis-based painkiller prescribed by physicians and covered by insurance. “I usually end up with the boring th...

Norway's Electric Ship  Norway Creates World’s First Autonomous Electric Cargo Ship Norway has launched the world’s first fully autonomous electric cargo ship. The vessel, named Yara Birkeland, runs entirely on battery power, with no human crew onboard. It navigates using AI, GPS, radar, and lidar, avoiding other vessels and obstacles at sea. It can carry over 100 containers while producing zero emissions. Charging stations at port allow it to recharge between trips. The ship is expected to replace thousands of truck journeys annually, cutting both traffic congestion and carbon emissions. Norway, a leader in green shipping, plans to expand autonomous electric fleets across its coastlines. Other nations are closely monitoring the project as a model for sustainable cargo transport. This represents a bold step toward cleaner oceans and smarter logistics. Muhammed Gambo

  Mark Zuckerberg  Mark Zuckerberg dropped $1 billion to solve a problem. And today that problem makes $20B a year. Rewind to 2012. Zuck spots a little photo-sharing app blowing up in the app store. It’s called Instagram. It has just 13 employees and makes no money. But it does have one thing. Photos. You see, people used to post all their photos on Facebook. And now they’re doing it on Instagram. That’s a big problem. Really big. Zuck knows he needs to move fast or this little app could take him down. So he picks up the phone and calls the founder. Then he invites him over for a chat. And cuts straight to the end. Zuckerberg offers $1 billion for the app. At the first meeting. No bankers. No board. No questions. Just 2 guys having a chat. Instagram takes the deal. And just like that, Zuck neutralizes his biggest threat.  Today Instagram pulls in $20B a year. Probably the best $1 billion ever spent.

  Norway is building the world’s first full-scale ocean tunnel that will let ships sail directly through a mountain. The tunnel will be 1.7 kilometers long and 36 meters wide, cutting through the Stad Peninsula, a dangerous area where the Norwegian Sea meets the North Sea. This region is known for rough waters, high waves, and accidents. By creating a direct and safe passage, the project will save time, reduce risks, and improve transport efficiency for both cargo and passenger ships. Norwegian authorities say construction could start soon, with the tunnel expected to handle up to 120 ships daily. Researchers highlight it as a breakthrough in maritime engineering, showing how infrastructure can adapt to extreme natural conditions. #norway #engineering #innovation #maritime #oceantunnel

 Dubai has built air conditioned bus stops to protect passengers from extreme desert heat. These enclosed bus shelters are fitted with cooling systems, seating, and ticket machines, ensuring comfort while waiting for public transport. With summer temperatures often crossing 45°C, the initiative improves safety and encourages more people to use buses. The project is part of Dubai’s wider smart city vision. By making public transport more accessible and comfortable, the city aims to reduce reliance on private cars and cut emissions. This model is now studied by other hot-climate cities looking for sustainable solutions to urban heat challenges. #dubai #innovation #publictransport #smartcity #heating

 The Palestinian armed group Hamas has said five of its members were killed in an Israeli air strike in Qatar's capital, but claimed that an attempt to assassinate its negotiating team "failed". Hamas said the negotiating team was meeting to discuss the latest US proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip at a residential compound in Doha when it was badly damaged by a series of explosions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the strike was "fully justified" because it targeted senior Hamas leaders who organised the 7 October 2023 attack on Israel, which triggered the Gaza war. Qatar condemned the Israeli attack, calling it "cowardly" and a "flagrant violation of international law". The Gulf state's interior ministry said one member of its Internal Security Force was killed and others were injured, without mentioning any Hamas casualties. The White House said US President Donald Trump believed the incident was "unfortunate...
