Zelensky urges 'clear signal' for Ukraine's NATO membership, says it 'deserves' to be in alliance

<p>EU chief Charles Michel and Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan agreed on Monday to seek closer cooperation after the Turkish leader demanded a return to European Union membership talks.</p>

<p>The pair met in Vilnius on the eve of a NATO summit, after Erdogan declared that Turkey would not approve Sweden's bid to join the alliance without a revival of Ankara's EU ambitions.</p>

<p>In a tweet, Michel hailed a "good meeting", adding that they had "explored opportunities ahead to bring EU-Turkey cooperation back to the forefront and re-energise our relations."</p>

<p>Turkey has been a formal candidate to join the European Union since 2005, and an aspirant since long before that, but talks have long been stalled with little sign of life.</p>

<p>Separately, NATO member Turkey has been blocking Sweden's attempt to join the military alliance, accusing Stockholm of harbouring Kurdish activists accused by Ankara of terrorism.</p>

<p>On Monday, in a surprise move ahead of Tuesday's NATO summit, Erdogan linked the two diplomatic logjams, demanding that the NATO allies that are also EU members clear Turkey's path.</p>

Thousands face outage on Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp

<p>Enter the fascinating world of bees, where these tiny but mighty beings outshine humans when it comes to making swift and superior choices regarding things that matter to them.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Surprisingly, honey bees, with brains smaller than sesame seeds, are capable of making faster and more accurate decisions than humans, a recent research suggested. This study was published in the journal eLife and sheds light on the decision-making process of honey bees, offering valuable insights into insect brains, the evolution of our own brains, and the design of more efficient robots. Honey bees have evolved over millions of years to effectively assess the effort, risk, and reward associated with finding food for their hive.</p>

<p>Led by Professor Andrew Barron from Macquarie University and Dr. HaDi MaBouDi, Neville Dearden, and Professor James Marshall from the University of Sheffield, the study provides valuable information about the cognitive processes involved in decision-making.</p>

<h2><strong>The efficiency of Bee decision-making</strong></h2>

<p>Professor Barron laid stress on the significance of decision-making in cognition, stating that animals constantly face decisions in their lives. "Decision-making is at the core of cognition," he said, adding, "It's the result of an evaluation of possible outcomes, and animal lives are full of decisions. A honey bee has a brain smaller than a sesame seed. And yet she can make decisions faster and more accurately than we can."</p>

<p>He further added that if a robot were to perform the tasks of a honey bee, it would require the computational power of a supercomputer.</p>

<p>Honey bees face the challenge of working quickly and efficiently, collecting nectar and defending against predators while making decisions about which flowers are likely to contain food.</p>

<p>During the flight, bees are primarily at risk of aerial attacks, but once they land to feed, they become vulnerable to predators, including those that camouflage themselves as flowers.</p>

<h2><strong>Experimental setup</strong></h2>

<p>In the study, 20 bees were trained to recognise five different coloured flower disks. Blue flowers always contained sugar syrup, green flowers contained quinine with a bitter taste for bees, and other colours sometimes had glucose.</p>

<p><a href="Also Read | 'Turkey will back Sweden's NATO bid if EU embraces Ankara', says Erdogan">Also Read | 'Turkey will back Sweden's NATO bid if EU embraces Ankara', says Erdogan</a></p>

<p>The researchers then observed the bees in a garden where the flowers only had distilled water. Over 40 hours of video footage was analysed to track the bees' flight paths and measure the time it took for them to make decisions.</p>

<h2><strong>Decoding Bee decision-making</strong></h2>

<p>Dr. MaBouDi explains that the bees displayed swift decision-making when they were confident that a flower had food, taking an average of 0.6 seconds to land on such flowers.</p>

<p>Similarly, if they were confident that a flower didn't have food, they made a quick decision. However, if they were uncertain, they took longer (an average of 1.4 seconds), with the decision time reflecting the likelihood of a flower containing food.</p>

<p>A few Glendale police officers in the US state of Arizona found themselves caught up in a thrilling pursuit last Saturday. It all started when the authorities, over the weekend, received a distress call about two runaway goats spotted in the vicinity of 80th and Glendale avenues.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The situation not only posed a danger to motorists but also put the mischievous goats at risk, according to the police officials.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“This was not only a hazard to those commuting on the road but to the goats themselves,” Glendale police said.</p>

<p>Novak Djokovic showed again why he remains invincible at Wimbledon, young rival Carlos Alcaraz graced Centre Court for the first time and Andy Murray's hopes ended in Greek tragedy on another marathon day at the grasscourt slam on Friday.</p>

<p>Serbia's Djokovic, chasing records on multiple fronts, left it late to book his place in round four, beating Stan Wawrinka 6-3 6-1 7-6(5) just before Wimbledon's 11pm curfew.</p>

<p>Spain's world number Alcaraz is a round behind because of this week's rain but picked up speed with a 6-4 7-6(2) 6-3 victory against Frenchman Alexandre Muller.</p>

<p>Women's top seed Iga Swiatek continued her serene progress with a third successive straight sets win -- this time against Croatia's Petra Martic 6-2 7-5.</p>

<p>Second seed Aryna Sabalenka suffered a scare though before hitting back to beat Varvara Gracheva of France 2-6 7-5 6-2.</p>

<p>For British fans, at least, day five fell flat with Murray unable to finish off fifth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas.</p>

<p>The 36-year-old had led two-sets-to-one after Thursday's late night action and there was a wave of Pimms-fuelled optimism that he could finish the job on Saturday.</p>

<p>Tsitsipas had other ideas though and silenced the partisan Centre Court crowd to prevail 7-6(3) 6-7(2) 4-6 7-6(3) 6-4 on the 10th anniversary of Murray's first Wimbledon crown.</p>

<h2><strong>Murray disappointed&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>"I'm obviously very disappointed just now," the Scot told reporters as he processed the loss.</p>

<p>"Yeah, obviously you never know how many opportunities you're going to get to play here. The defeats maybe feel a bit tougher. But, to be honest, every year that Wimbledon's not gone how I would like, it's been hard."</p>

<p>Broady at least had the honour of being Britain's best-performing male player this year, although he did not take too much comfort from that fact.</p>

<p>"Kind of makes it worse that we've all lost on the same day, as well. Probably would have felt a bit better if we'd staggered what days we lost on, whereas now it's a bit of a Debbie Downer, isn't it?" he told reporters."</p>

<p>Alcaraz mixed power hitting, fearsome returning and delicate drop shots to beat Muller, declaring afterwards that he belonged on the "really beautiful court" and hoped to play Djokovic in the final on Sunday week.</p>

<p>"I feel like I'm ready to play more matches, to play more great matches on that court," U.S. Open champion Alcaraz said after reaching the third round where he will play Chile's Nicolas Jarry on Saturday.</p>

<p>"It would be amazing to play a final here in Wimbledon. Even better if is against Novak obviously."</p>

<p>She was joined by Ukraine's Marta Kostyuk whose Spanish opponent Paula Badosa retired with a back injury. Badosa, the 25-year-old girlfriend of Tsitsipas, also pulled out of the mixed doubles in which she was scheduled to play alongside him.</p>
