New York City officials have disclosed that almost half of the 282 individuals apprehended during pro-Palestinian protests at two educational institutions last week have no current affiliation with either school.
Following persistent demands for transparency regarding the demographics of those arrested at Columbia University and The City College of New York, Mayor Eric Adams and the New York City Police Department released a breakdown of the arrests on Thursday. This came after Adams repeatedly attributed the protests and subsequent arrests to “outside agitators.”
According to city officials, 29% of the 112 individuals arrested at the Columbia University protest were not associated with the institution. Similarly, at The City College of New York, 60% of the 170 arrested individuals had no affiliation with the school, as stated in the city’s official press release.

Italy bans popular puppy yoga: sporting hype proves harmful to young dogs

The Italian Ministry of Health has issued a ban on puppy yoga. In a short time, the new form of yoga became very popular, but according to Italian authorities, the participation of puppies is not conducive to the well-being of the young dogs.
Friday May 3, 2024 at 6:44 PM
For the less fanatical yogis, first this: puppy yoga is not very different from other forms of yoga. Only – not surprisingly – there are puppies walking around the room during class. Sometimes the young dogs are also actively involved in an exercise or there is time for a cuddle moment after class. Its popularity is fueled by cute images on social media.
The reasoning behind it sounds good: a health

New vegetables born from hybridization arrive on French-speaking shelves – rts.ch
Bimis, kalettes or zucchiolos: these new hybrid vegetables, born from crosses between well-known varieties, can now be found on the shelves of some supermarkets. They seem to arouse the curiosity of the French-speaking population.
At the supermarket, bimis, zucchiolos and kalettes now find their place alongside the traditional carrots, beets and fennel. These new vegetables are hybrids, deriving from crosses of cousin varieties, but also from protected brands.
“Zucchiolos were initially said to be a cross between a cucumber and a courgette. The play on words is quite clever from a marketing perspective (this is a contraction of the Italian words zucchini (courgette) and cutriolo (cucumber), ed.), but that’s absolutely impossible. It can only be a cross between two varieties of the same species, recalls François Lefort, agronomist at the Haute école du landscape, d’enseignement et d’architecture (HEPIA) in Geneva.
Hybrid species are natural and also exist “every day”. “Some may be fertile and give rise to individuals which, if fertile, will give rise to new species. […] In a garden, if you grow pumpkins of the same species, pumpkins or courgettes, where there are for example courgettes, cross-fertilization between these varieties will occur”, explains the agronomist on Saturday at 7.30pm

In Berlin, people should take to the streets at 6 p.m., in Dresden the event should start at 5 p.m. “Together, as a democratic civil society, we take a stand. Nobody should have to fear for their safety because they are politically involved or active in a party!” says the call, which received almost 1,000 likes (as of 1:30 a.m.) within a short period of time. “Together Against the Right” is, according to its own statements, a “nationwide network against AfD and right-wing extremism”, “We are the Firewall Dresden” sees itself as a non-partisan action alliance of
