Typhoon No. 22 has brought severe weather to the Izu Islands, particularly around Hachijo Island, where strong winds and heavy rain continue to impact the region. Although the intensity of the rain and wind has peaked, authorities urge residents to remain cautious due to violent gusts, high waves, and the risk of landslides caused by saturated ground conditions.
While most of the Kanto region, including the Tokyo metropolitan area, has avoided major transportation disruptions, some services along the coasts of Chiba and Ibaraki prefectures may still experience delays or interruptions.
As of 9 a.m. on October 9, Typhoon No. 23, named Nakri, was moving quickly northwest over waters south of Japan. It is expected to influence weather conditions during the upcoming three-day holiday weekend. Forecasts predict that the typhoon will strengthen slightly as it approaches the Okinawa and Amami regions between October 10 and 11. Afterward, Nakri is expected to curve northward, moving off the coast of Kyushu on October 12 and reaching waters south of Japan’s main islands by October 13.
In other news, a recent OECD report released on Tuesday reveals that elementary and junior high school teachers in Japan continue to work the longest hours among their peers worldwide. Although the 2024 results show a reduction of about four hours per week compared to the previous survey in 2018, Japan’s teachers still far exceed the working hours of educators globally.
Meanwhile, beer deliveries from Asahi Group Holdings have been disrupted following a ransomware cyberattack. This has caused shortages affecting izakaya and other establishments across Japan. Some bars have reported their beer stock dwindling to just a single bottle as supply chain delays ripple through the industry.
Additionally, a magnitude 4.9 earthquake struck off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture around 9:30 a.m. on October 7. The tremor registered a maximum intensity of 4 on the Japanese seismic scale. According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, there is no risk of a tsunami resulting from this earthquake.

Un proyecto de ley que ya cuenta con dictamen de dos comisiones y podría llegar al recinto de Diputados en breve tiene en vilo al sector TIC argentino, ya que implicaría el regreso recargado de un tributo que había sido eliminado.
Se trata del impuesto Enard a las telecomunicaciones, un gravamen del 1% que se aplicó a la telefonía celular hasta 2017 y que se destinaba al Ente Nacional de Alto Rendimiento Deportivo. La versión actual también implicaría financiar al nuevo Consejo Federal para el Alto Rendimiento Deportivo (Cofard) con un 1% de la facturación de las compañías, pero no solo de telefonía móvil, sino también de internet y TV paga que tengan más de 10.000 clientes, lo que encarecería el servicio para los consumidores.
Este impuesto ya existió en su momento, pero solo para las compañías de telefonía móvil. Ahora se extiende a todo el resto de los servicios TIC.
“Estamos dando un paso hacia atrás”, afirmó Federico Fornelli, presidente de la Asociación Argentina de Televisión por Cable (ATVC).
La autoría del proyecto, que modifica la ley 26.573, corresponde a Rogelio Iparraguirre y Victoria Tolosa Paz, del bloque Unión por la Patria, y ya cuenta con dictamen de las comisiones de Deportes y Comunicación de Diputados.
Según ATVC, si algunos legisladores cercanos al oficialismo, algunos de los cuales votaron a favor en comisión, acompañan la iniciativa, esta podría avanzar. Según la redacción del texto, el 1% se agregaría al precio del servicio, pero el cliente no lo distinguiría en la factura.
“Estamos hablando de un nuevo impuesto que explícitamente mete mano en el bolsillo de toda la población y castiga a todos los usuarios por igual”, agregó.
Según datos del Ente Nacional de Comunicaciones (Enacom), el 82% de los hogares del país tiene acceso a internet, la penetración de líneas móviles asciende al 135% y el 57% de los hogares cuenta con TV por suscripción. Más allá de esto, debido al deterioro histórico del poder de compra, especialmente entre los usuarios de menores ingresos, Argentina presenta aún un déficit en el uso de estos servicios.
En 2023 se avanzó en mejorar las condiciones de acceso a dispositivos, gracias al plan de reducción gradual de impuestos. “Gravar los servicios TIC va en contra de esta tendencia”, continuó el ejecutivo.
Según un relevamiento de la Cámara Argentina de Internet (Cabase), el sector está sujeto a más de 20 tributos y tasas nacionales, provinciales y municipales, con una presión tributaria promedio del 41,5%.
La industria TIC, además, aporta el 1% de los ingresos totales devengados para constituir el Fondo de Servicio Universal, destinado a financiar proyectos de conectividad y acelerar la digitalización. Solo en 2024, el aporte total del sector por este concepto fue de $58.800 millones.
“¿Queremos una industria habilitadora, que fomente el empleo y la educación? En vez de ayudar, nos ponen otra barrera. Y además, no tiene mucho que ver con su función. ¿Qué tienen que ver las telecomunicaciones con el deporte? ¿Por qué no le ponen un impuesto al tabaco? A cualquier industria que se lo pusieran, igual estaría mal. El presupuesto del Enard debería establecerse con base en los ingresos, y luego, en función de eso, ver los gastos. No se puede castigar a una industria con el potencial de la nuestra para financiar el deporte”, cerró Fornelli.

**Historic First in Canada: Successful Heart Transplant Using Donation After Circulatory Death**
In a groundbreaking medical achievement, surgeons at Toronto’s University Health Network (UHN) have successfully completed a heart transplant using a donor whose heart had stopped beating. This innovative technique, known as donation after circulatory death (DCD), marks a significant milestone for Canada’s organ transplant landscape.
Unlike traditional heart transplants that rely on organs from brain-dead donors whose hearts continue to beat, the DCD approach recovers hearts after life support is withdrawn and the heart has stopped beating. This expands the donor pool and offers new hope for patients on transplant waiting lists.
In early September, a team at UHN’s Toronto General Hospital performed the novel transplant. Dr. Ali Rabi, the cardiac surgeon at UHN’s Peter Munk Cardiac Centre who led the surgery, explained the significance of the procedure:
“Before, we only used hearts from brain-dead donors whose hearts were still beating. Now, we can use hearts that have stopped beating after life support is withdrawn. These are donors who are not considered brain dead. They have a few basic reflexes but no prospect of recovery. That decision is made by the patient, their family, their treatment team, and a neurology team. The family then decides they do not want their loved one to continue like this.”
Heart failure remains one of the most common causes of hospital admission and death in Canada. According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, by the end of 2024, there were 155 adults and 29 children waiting for a heart transplant. Dr. Rabi highlighted the impact of this new technique:
“Because of this surgery, we increase the number of heart transplants by 20 to 40 per cent. This will also reduce the number of people who never receive a heart transplant and die waiting for one.”
This technique is not entirely new globally—it has been successfully used in countries including Australia, the U.K., and the United States. In Canada, it is expected to increase heart transplants by approximately 30 percent. A representative shared the emotional impact of seeing the new heart beating:
“When the heart started beating again in the new patient, it’s amazing. The heart’s natural strength is incredible. This breakthrough shows how innovation can save more lives. Congratulations to UHN for this historic milestone.”
Dr. Rabi also acknowledged the profound generosity of donor families:
“It’s the hardest day of their lives, but many find comfort knowing their loved one helped save others.”
Recent data from Australia and the U.S. indicate no difference in long-term survival between recipients of DCD hearts and those receiving organs from traditional brain-dead donors. Dr. Rabi is optimistic about the future of heart transplantation:
“I encourage young people who are interested in heart failure and heart transplant to look at the field, and I guarantee you in the next five years, the field will be completely unrecognizable.”
This landmark surgery not only expands opportunities for patients in need but also represents a hopeful leap forward in cardiac care and transplant innovation in Canada.

**Star Wars Battlefront 2 for $4.99 on the PS Store**
Developed by DICE and published by Electronic Arts, Star Wars Battlefront 2 is currently available for just $4.99 on the PlayStation Store. This price represents a 75% discount off its typical $19.99 listing. Both PS4 and PS5 players interested in this limited-time deal should act quickly, as the offer ends on October 23 at 2:59 a.m. ET.
**Game Overview**
Rush through waves of enemies on Starkiller Base, wielding the power of your lightsaber. Storm through the jungle canopy of a hidden Rebel base on Yavin 4 with your fellow troopers, providing powerful firepower from AT-STs. Lead your X-wing squadron in an attack on a massive First Order Star Destroyer in space.

**Reception and Player Base**
When Star Wars Battlefront 2 originally launched in 2017, it received mixed reviews. According to Metacritic, the game earned an average score of 68 based on 62 critic reviews, while our own review gave it a 7 out of 10.
However, the game faced significant backlash at launch, primarily due to the infamous loot box controversy that overshadowed its release. Despite these challenges, Star Wars Battlefront 2 has experienced a resurgence in popularity this year, reaching an all-time peak player count of over 35,000.
If you’re a fan of Star Wars or first-person shooters, this is an excellent opportunity to pick up Star Wars Battlefront 2 at a great price before the deal expires.

**Lucknow Police Commissionerate First in UP to Upgrade Wireless Communication Network**
Lucknow: The Lucknow Police Commissionerate has become the first in Uttar Pradesh to connect all police stations and beat constables through an upgraded wireless communication network, significantly enhancing law enforcement coordination across the city.
**Details of the Upgrade**
Previously, the static wireless sets at police stations had a limited range of only three kilometres, while handheld devices operated within just one kilometre. According to DG Telecom Ashutosh Pandey, a total of 1,765 wireless sets have been upgraded, which includes 623 static units and 1,142 handheld devices.
The most notable improvement in the system comes from increasing the number of repeater devices across the city from two to eight. Additionally, all wireless sets have been reprogrammed to operate on a unified network, ensuring seamless connectivity among all police units.
**Enhanced Coordination and Response**
“This upgrade removes earlier communication gaps between distant police units,” said Pandey. He highlighted that now, even police stations located as far apart as BKT and Banthra—roughly 33 kilometres away from each other—can communicate directly via wireless.
Officials explained that the new system will significantly improve coordination and speed up response times. Beat constables can instantly relay crime or emergency information to their respective stations and senior officers, facilitating quicker action.
Furthermore, the direct communication link will aid in better management during public events and law-and-order situations, making police operations more efficient and effective.
**Next Phase in Mathura**
Following Lucknow’s success, the upgraded wireless communication system is slated for implementation in Mathura next. This comes at a crucial time as frequent crowd gatherings in Mathura often lead to disruptions in mobile networks, hindering effective communication.
The deployment of the new system is expected to enhance the police force’s ability to maintain public safety and order during such events.
