UT Austin Study finds Fetii as future solution to traffic issues
SUMMARY: University of Texas students are collaborating with an Austin-based rideshare service called Fetii to address traffic congestion and its environmental impact. The research identified that traditional rideshare services and single occupancy vehicles contribute more to pollution and greenhouse gas emissions than driving oneself. Fetii, which accommodates groups of up to 15 people, has been found to have the potential to greatly reduce traffic and emissions in urban areas. This study, conducted by UT students, suggests that the expansion of Fetii could have a substantial positive impact on cities across the country in terms of both traffic congestion and environmental impact.

Rafah is a dusty, rubble-strewn ghost town 2 months after Israel invaded to root out Hamas – KXAN Austin
SUMMARY: Rafah, a city in the Gaza Strip, has become a deserted, war-ravaged area following a two-month Israeli military invasion targeting Hamas, their final stronghold in Gaza. Abandoned buildings and rubble dominate the landscape, with few civilians remaining. Israel alleges that Hamas turned civilian areas into combat zones, creating deadly traps. Approximately 1.4 million Palestinians fled to Rafah, now reduced to around 50,000 under dire conditions in a “humanitarian area.” Aid efforts are stalled, with dangerous routes and limited access to resources. The humanitarian crisis worsens as Israel pushes forward its offensive, despite significant challenges in aid delivery and civilian survival.

SUMMARY: At the Essence Festival of Culture, Vice President Kamala Harris and other Black Democrats underscored the dangers of another Trump presidency, positioning the 2024 election as crucial. Harris avoided discussing President Biden's debated reelection viability. Instead, she emphasized the stakes of the election while Black Democrats, key to Biden's past win, backed him amidst calls for him to step aside. These leaders suggested if Biden withdraws, Harris should be the nominee, emphasizing her readiness and contrast with potential white candidates. Despite mixed opinions on Biden's candidacy, consensus emerged on prioritizing Trump's defeat and Harris maintaining her significant role.
