Do These Connectors Have a Name?
Thanks. I would normal have done that or maybe use a wire nut and a pigtail or twist and solder wires. Seems I'm old fashioned, but don't have much experience with cables 6mm2 to 25mm2. From the picture I saw they use double ferrul on solar installations which will be carrying a lot more current that my installation. My max. is 32A. -

Accident Dramatic Rescue as Technician Collapses from Heatstroke on 30-Metre Telecom Tower in Lampang
The Police habitually do this, it seems the 'authorities' in this case have done it as well. Presenting a guess as a confirmed fact and then allowing the authority gradient to do its work. I don't think they should guess. -

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor, the rich get rich That's how it goes Everybody knows -Everybody Knows, Leonard Cohen -

Thai - Cambodia Conflict Thailand and Cambodia Reaffirm Ceasefire Following China-Brokered Talks in Shanghai
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Thailand and Cambodia have reaffirmed their commitment to a fragile ceasefire following days of border clashes, after China hosted diplomatic talks in Shanghai aimed at easing tensions. The ceasefire, originally brokered in Malaysia, quickly came under strain. The Thai army accused Cambodian forces of launching fresh assaults in several areas, an allegation denied by Phnom Penh. Thailand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a strongly worded statement on 30 July, accusing Cambodian troops of violating the agreement. “Such act of aggression constitutes once again a clear violation of the ceasefire agreement by Cambodian forces and their apparent lack of good faith,” the ministry declared. However, by the afternoon of 30 July, further signs of de-escalation emerged. Thai and Cambodian representatives appeared smiling alongside China’s Vice Foreign Minister Sun Weidong at an informal meeting hosted in Shanghai. The discussions involved Kung Phaok from Cambodia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Jullapong Nonsrichai, a senior advisor to Thailand’s foreign minister. According to a statement from China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, both parties “reiterated their commitment to the ceasefire consensus” and expressed appreciation for Beijing’s role in de-escalating the crisis. China described the meeting as its “latest diplomatic effort” and said it was playing a “constructive role in resolving their border dispute.” Thitinan Pongsudhirak, professor of international relations at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, said China’s intervention reflects its “serious concerns” about further conflict in the region, particularly given the ongoing civil war in neighbouring Myanmar. “The Chinese and U.S. interests align on this, which is very rare,” he remarked. “China does not want more instability in its backyard. And Trump wants to have another peacemaking win.” Some analysts, however, viewed China’s high-profile diplomatic push as a counter to the U.S. approach. Tita Sanglee of the ISEAS–Yusof Ishak Institute in Singapore noted: “Trump’s strategy of tying trade deals to sensitive sovereignty issues has been undeniably effective, but I doubt it will serve long-term U.S. interests. China is likely to contrast this with its own image as a more respectful and understanding mediator.” The ceasefire agreement was originally struck in Putrajaya, Malaysia, during a meeting hosted by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in his capacity as ASEAN chair. Present were Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet and Thailand’s acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai. The deal called for an unconditional halt to fighting, which has claimed multiple lives. As the ceasefire appears to be holding, at least for now, the region remains on edge, with diplomacy and military restraint both being tested daily. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-07-31 -

Opinion: The 'War Phase' Of the Fourth Turning Has Arrived
The historical relevance of The Fourth Turning makes it a wise topic for study as we enter the apex of this current historical cycle. Unfortunately "War" is the hallmark the apex of a Fourth Turning. Opinion piece by Jim Quinn via The Burning Platform. “History offers no guarantees. Obviously, things could go horribly wrong – the possibilities ranging from a nuclear exchange to incurable plagues, from terrorist anarchy to high-tech dictatorship. We should not assume that Providence will always exempt our nation from the irreversible tragedies that have overtaken so many others: not just temporary hardship, but debasement and total ruin. Losing in the next Fourth Turning could mean something incomparably worse. It could mean a lasting defeat from which our national innocence – perhaps even our nation – might never recover.” – Strauss & Howe – The Fourth Turning https://www.theburningplatform.com/2025/07/30/war-phase-of-this-fourth-turning-has-arrived/
