The remaining southern block is more stable and not at imminent risk of collapse, said French civil engineer Emmanuel Durand, who has installed sensors on the silos.

A cloud of dust rose over the port after the collapse, which brought down the last of the northern block of silos that was more heavily damaged in the blast and where a fire had been burning since July. 'This year, even after two or three minutes, it still feels like boiling water.' burs-oho/mca/axnĮight more grain silos at Beirut port toppled Tuesday, succumbing to damage from a devastating 2020 explosion in the third such collapse in a month, AFP correspondents reported. 'In previous summers when we turned on the faucet, we might get hot water flowing for one minute, and cool water after that,' said Zhang, a 25-year-old woman who did not give her first name. 'This affects my work and my life as well.' Even the taps are running hot. 'Most of the equipment like the ice-maker and the lighting in the bar are high-power machines, and the recent electricity shortage has compelled the bar to suspend business,' Liu, a singer, told AFP. Local businesses - already hit hard by two years of Covid-19 - are suffering, with one bar worker saying the power shortages had affected nightlife. The Jialing is a tributary of the mighty Yangtze - a key node for southwestern China's trade that is now drying up, with water flow on its main trunk about 50 percent lower than the average over the last five years. Locals bathe in what water remains in the dried-out riverbed and pose for photos. 'We're trying to use less and save more, trying to use fans if we can, and life goes on with some endurance.' At Chongqing's most popular tourist spot along the Jialing River, the lights have been cut to save power and the once-busy street has gone quiet. 'Because of the electricity shortage, we don't leave the AC on all day,' he said. 'Since the heatwave, I feel too hot to sleep every night, and the heat wakes me up every morning,' Xu Jinxin, a 20-year-old student, told AFP. The power shortages have now forced locals to scale back their use of air conditioning, making life a struggle. One woman told AFP she took shelter in a local ballroom during the day - a spot particularly busy as the elderly seek shelter from the sun and while away the hours dancing under a dimmed light.

On the streets of Chongqing, a city of 30 million, locals line up for mandatory Covid tests in the wee hours of the morning, keen to avoid long queues in the scorching heat of the day. Temperatures as high as 45 degrees Celsius (113 Fahrenheit) have forced authorities to impose power cuts to cope with a surge in demand for electricity partly driven by people cranking up the air conditioning. The region is suffering through its longest continuous period of high temperatures since records began more than 60 years ago, with scientists warning such hot and dry spells will worsen as climate change warms the planet. The lights are out along a once-bustling boulevard in a tourist spot at the epicentre of China's hottest summer on record, as people take refuge indoors from the searing heat engulfing the country's southwest. Anybody putting money on Steve Ballmer? Not that Microsoft was even called out in the rant he just seems to enjoy yelling. Here at TUAW, we're taking bets on who will be the third executive to step up and respond to the Jobs rant.

He later responded to another tweet by saying 'We have only 2 guys developing on Android TweetDeck so that shows how small an issue fragmentation is.' It wasn't.' That wasn't the only time Dodsworth called out Jobs on his assertion that Android development is difficult because of the vast variety of OS / hardware combinations available.

TweetDeck's CEO Iain Dodsworth responded in a series of tweets after the call, saying 'Did we at any point say it was a nightmare developing on Android? Errrr nope, no we didn't. By implication, Jobs was making the Android development world seem like a nightmare. During yesterday's classic tirade by Apple CEO Steve Jobs during the 4Q Earnings Call, there was a rant about the fragmentation of the Android OS that included a reference to 'TwitterDeck's' (actually TweetDeck's) recent chart showing how many hardware platforms they must contend with during development.
