Jonathan Jackson of Illinois calls Cuba ‘most sanctioned part of Earth’ amid US oil blockade causing vast disruptions Sign up for the Breaking News US email to get newsletter alerts in your inbox Two Democratic US lawmakers on Monday called for a permanent solution to crises confronting Cuba after they visited the island to witness the effects of an American energy blockade. US House members Pramila Jayapal of Washington and Jonathan Jackson of Illinois met with Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel and foreign minister Bruno Rodríguez as well as members of Cuba’s parliament during a five-day trip ending on Sunday. “I denounced the criminal damage caused by the blockade, particularly the consequences of the energy siege decreed by the current US government and its threats of even more aggressive actions,” Díaz-Canel wrote on X.

【有線新聞】積木玩具的組件一般較為細小，如果透過3D打印技術將它們變大，拼砌起來又會否別有一番趣味？ 美國YouTuber奈特小時候熱愛樂高城堡系列，長大後決定透過3D打印機仿照這款在1984年出產的「國王的城堡」，打造巨大版積木組件，然後如玩具原型般拼砌起來。 巨型積木的每個維度選用1比20的比例，體積是原型的8,000倍，但礙於打印機容納的空間有限，並非所有組件均能夠完美複製。組裝說明書內的這兩塊綠色「草地」板塊就是例子，需先拆解成眾多的顆粒，再組合起來。其他工程問題同樣需要解決，包括要進行壓力測試，確保組件有足夠承托力，但過程中難免出現挫折，需不斷嘗試，再接再厲。 經過逾一年努力後，各個組件已印製完畢，進入最後的拼砌階段。樂高積木是透過「咬合力」緊密結合，如果是原廠的細小組件自然可以輕鬆扣合，自家製的巨型版本則或許有點難度，需用點力道才能組裝。 由「小人國」變成「大人國」的工程近日終於大功告成，即使是樂高「人仔」也按比例還原。奈特表示在3D打印過程中使用大量膠絲，兩公斤卷裝的便用了477個，一公斤的則用了127個。 城堡閘門可如原型般運作，但最終考驗在於城堡背面可否手動開合。玩具的樂趣之一來自可以轉動或擺弄當中的機關，這些細節能夠重現，自然喜出望外。美國YouTuber奈特：「這真的充滿樂趣，看吧，看它的展開方式，那巨大的城牆，閉合的時候本身已是好看，打開的話或許更悅目。」 回味童年時幻想的中古世界固然令人樂在其中，但獨樂樂不如眾樂樂，玩具不論是細小抑或大型，懂得分享一起玩或許得著更多。

ismagilov/iStock via Getty Images Investment Thesis Akamai Technologies Inc. ( AKAM ) has evolved into a security and cloud platform, positioning it to tap into growing markets. However, its growth appears partly acquisition-driven, with a limited track record of organic growth above long-term GDP levels. The changing business profile has also led to a declining gap between the gross profit margin and fixed cost margin (gap). This, in turn, led to declining returns. Unless Akamai can scale its security and cloud businesses to restore this gap, its prospects remain constrained. Given these challenges and the lack of a margin of safety, the stock does not appear attractive at current prices. Evolving business Akamai is a global edge cloud platform that provides cybersecurity, cloud computing, and content delivery services. Its products and services help enterprises run fast, secure, and scalable internet applications. Akamai today operates in three main areas: Security (cybersecurity platform). This business protects websites, apps, APIs, and users from cyberattacks. Cloud computing / compute (edge + cloud platform). This provides infrastructure to build and run applications. Delivery (content & application delivery). In simple terms, this business accelerates and distributes internet content globally A decade ago, Akamai was mainly a content delivery company. But around 2018, it shifted into security, and then around 2020, it diversified further into the cloud/compute business. This shift is illustrated in the left part of Chart 1 - the delivery business was the biggest revenue contributor 5 years ago. However, in 2025, this position went to the security business. I would consider Akamai a global business, as the US only accounted for about half of its revenue. Refer to Chart 1, right. Given this picture, it is probably more appropriate when forecasting its performance to look at the post-2020 picture. Chart 1: Revenue Profile (Author) Secondly, from a total addressa...

As France Yanks Last US-Based Gold Reserves, UBS Expects Demand From China To Persist When France repatriates its gold, it has historically been worth paying attention to (think De Gaulle's demands culminating in the 'Nixon Shock'). However, then (as now), there was no cliff-like event, it was a slow-building crisis and perhaps the news that Gold has officially emptied its US-stored gold reserves (held in New York) is another straw on the back of the fiat standard to keep an eye on. RFI reports that The Banque de France (BdF) announced last week that it generated a capital gain of €12.8 billion after upgrading 129 tonnes of gold – about 5% of France's total reserves – between July 2025 and January 2026 . The gold was the last of the French reserves held in New York. It was replaced with the equivalent amount bought in Europe and held in Paris. The BdF has been gradually replacing older, non‑standard gold with bars that meet ​modern international standards since 2005. It moved the majority of its gold reserves out of the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England between 1963 and 1966. Rather than refining and transporting the gold that remained in the US, the bank opted to sell it and purchase new, compliant bullion on the European market. BdF governor Francois Villeroy de Galhau insisted that the decision to move France’s gold out of the US was not politically motivated. Instead, it was based on the fact that higher-standard gold is traded on the European market, and buying new gold was easier than refining the existing stock. Not everyone is buying what the BdF Governor is selling. Here's Commodity Discovery Fund founder (and infamous prognosticator), Willem Middelkoop's somewhat more conspiratorial take : My two cents on the repatriation of French gold bars: France asked to return their 12.5 kg gold bars US had already sold them US offered to wire the money France accepted and bought new 12.5 kg gold bars in London Both countries agreed on the following spin to s...

LG was once a heavyweight in the smartphone industry, trading blows with hometown rival Samsung. However, as smartphone sales plateaued, the company struggled to stay competitive. In 2021, LG planned to make waves with a rollable phone , but it never moved beyond the teaser phase. Five years after LG threw in the towel on smartphones , the LG Rollable has appeared in a YouTube teardown that demonstrates why this form factor never took off. The LG Rollable is just one of several rollable concept phones that appeared throughout the early 2020s. Flexible OLED screens had finally become affordable, leading to foldable phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold. Although, "affordable" is relative here. Foldables were and still are very expensive devices. Based on what we can see of the complex inner workings of the LG Rollable, these devices may have commanded even higher prices. Noted YouTube phone destroyer JerryRigEverything managed to snag a working prototype LG Rollable. It may even be the unit LG demoed at CES 2021. The device looks like a regular phone at first glance, but a quick swipe activates the motor, which unfurls additional screen real estate from around the back. This makes the viewable area about 40 percent larger without the added thickness of a foldable. Read full article Comments

witsarut sakorn/iStock via Getty Images A predictable business In front of us we have a company that executes the part that state regulators and utilities cannot do on their own. For example, the CPUC in California , the PSC in New York or the PUC in Nevada have, by law, certain energy efficiency targets for the utilities in their jurisdiction, that is, how many kWh they have to reduce, within what timeframe and under what budget they have to achieve it. In addition, these budgets are a legal obligation that is financed through the tariffs that the utility's customers pay every month, so they have to be spent no matter what, and this is where Willdan Group ( WLDN ) model comes in, as these companies do not have the operational capacity to execute that operation, since programs must be designed, energy audits must be carried out across thousands of buildings, subcontractors managed, reports submitted to the regulator… so that "problem" is tendered out for someone else to solve it, that is, companies like WLDN. In this way, this model generates visibility that, in my opinion, is unusual for a services company, since contracts with utilities have durations of between 3 and 5 years with funding already approved by the regulatory cycle. This means that if we take into account that at the end of FY25 , the backlog was $1B on revenue of $681M, WLDN has coverage of 1.47 years, that is, even if it did not win another contract, it would have a secured pipeline for that period of time. A number that, above 1, I would already consider healthy. WLDN But in addition, the regulatory budgets that feed this backlog have even longer horizons, such as the one approved by the CPUC of $4.3B from 2024 to 2027, which also includes another $4.6B until 2031, or the NY PSC with $5.36B until 2030. And this, as they are not federal allocations, makes it immune to the potential swings that could arise from Washington. Although, as you may be sensing, this advantage can also simultaneously be a ...
