@NkiroteR @ombachi13 @yemialadee 😂😂😂 the risk depends on the location of the balcony. Kasarani & kilimani, definitely cause for concern. Anywhere else, he should be ok.

🔴 البرتقال المصري أفضل برتقال في العالم

📌 ناس كتير متعرفش إن مصر هي أكبر دولة في العالم مصدرة للبرتقال بإجمالي صادرات بيوصل لـ 2 مليون طن سنوياً.

​وده لأن البرتقال المصري مفيش زيه في العالم كله لأنها أكتر برتقالة مسكرة ومليانة عصبر 😋

بيقولك بقى " بصوت ممتاز الدمنهوري "
​بعد ما بيقطفوا البرتقال من على الشجر بيبدأوا يفرزوه فرز أولي قبل ما يدخل لمحطات التصدير والعصر.

​أول ما بيوصل البرتقال المحطة بيتغسل كويس مش بس عشان التنظيف، ولكن دي خطوة أساسية عشان عملية الفرز بحيث إنه لو فيه أي عيوب تبدأ تظهر معانا.

​بيتفرز البرتقال مرة تانية يدوياً قبل ما ياخد طبقة الـ Wax بتاعته واللي بتحافظ على البرتقال أطول فترة ممكنة.

​ندخل بقى على أهم مرحلة وهي مرحلة الفرز الإلكتروني.. كل حباية بيتعمل لها Scan وبيتحلل لونها وحجمها والعيوب اللي فيها في جزء من الثانية.

​بعد كدة السيستم بيبدأ يفرزهم على خطوط التوزيع أوتوماتيكياً على حسب المواصفات المطلوبة لكل كرتونة ولأن الفرز هنا كان إلكتروني، فالكرتونة بتاخد 72 حباية بالظبط.

​ورقم 72 ده مؤشر لحجم البرتقال جوه الكرتونة، فالرقم ده لو زاد يبقى البرتقال حجمه أصغر، ولو قل يبقى البرتقال حجمه أكبر.

​آخر مرحلة بيمر بيها البرتقال قبل ما يسافر خارج البلاد وهي مرحلة الـ Pre-cooling، وهي إننا بنسقع البرتقال لدرجة حرارة صفر عشان يعطينا أكبر عمر ممكن للثمرة وتكون في حاويات معقمة وبتتختم من البلد بالختم بتاع الدولة.

@ahmedalturkk ....and they do house calls, as well, in Egypt. Elsewhere in Africa, I have seen relatives and friends visiting specialists and undergoing elective procedures during visits home before they go back to Europe, for the reasons you have highlighted. Interesting times.

Ethiopia is positioning itself as the continent’s primary aviation hub, competing with Gulf connectors like Qatar Airways, as it breaks ground on Bishoftu International Airport, a $12.5B project ~50 km from Addis Ababa targeting 60M passengers by 2030 with plans to grow to up to 110M:

—The project is led by state-owned Ethiopian Airlines, which is committing ~30% of total capital (~$3.5B), leaving an ~$8B external financing gap, and is structuring the airport to handle ~3.73M tons of cargo annually to support its hub-and-spoke expansion strategy.

—The strategy targets African air freight growth of ~15–16% YoY vs ~5.5% globally, leveraging Addis Ababa’s position between Africa, Europe, and Asia and expanding intra-African connectivity under SAATM.

—Key risks: closing the ~$8B funding gap, delivering supporting infrastructure such as roads, rail & power, and managing resettlement of ~15,000 affected residents.

Gout Gout was at Ipswich Grammar School to play soccer. He had never trained as a sprinter. He was twelve years old, wearing sand shoes, and somebody told him to line up for a race at the school carnival.

The kid next to him was wearing spikes. He had won nationals.

Gout left him in the dust.

His classmate Tyson Walker was in the race too. "Everyone there stopped and watched," Walker recalled. "We had GPS athletics the next week and he broke every record and just didn't stop. He's just kept going faster."

A coach named Di Sheppard saw him run that day. She told him he could be an Olympic medalist. He later said it was the first time anyone had ever told him anything like that. He was twelve. He joined her squad and started training twice a week.

Here is where the story gets strange.

At 14 he ran 10.57 in the 100m, the fastest ever by an Australian under 16. At 15 he broke the national U18 200m record. At 16 he clocked 10.04 in a heat, then 10.17 legal in the final, then woke up the next morning and ran 20.04 in the 200m, breaking Peter Norman's Australian record from the 1968 Olympics. That record had stood for 56 years. Usain Bolt saw the footage, posted a photo, and wrote "He looks like young me."

The Bolt comparison is worth sitting with. Bolt didn't race 100 meters professionally until he was 21. His first professional 100m was 10.03. Gout Gout ran 10.00 flat at 18.

And his coach still only puts him in the gym two days a week. She's managing the fact that his body is still growing. The power phase of his development hasn't started. He is running these times on stride length and raw top-end speed alone.

His parents are Dinka, from South Sudan. They fled to Egypt, then to Australia, two years before he was born. Third of seven children. The family name was misspelled during transliteration from Arabic. It was supposed to be Guot. His father has been trying to change it back because "gout" is a disease name.

The kid kept running.

Brisbane 2032. Home Olympics. He'll be 24, the same age Bolt was when he set the 100m world record in Berlin. Adidas already signed him through that year.

The fastest man in Australian history started in sand shoes at a school carnival. Nobody told him to stop.
