BRIEFING

UK: Liz Truss, the former prime minister, speaks at the Oxford University
Conservative Association.
Egypt: The Belgian and Spanish prime ministers Alexander De Croo and Pedro
Sánchez visit Egypt.
South Africa: Parole hearing in the case of Oscar Pistorius, the former sprinter
who was convicted of murder after fatally shooting his girlfriend, the model
Reeva Steenkamp, on Valentine’s Day in 2013.
World: Black Friday shopping event.

ON THIS DAY

In 1642 the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman sighted what he named Van Diemen’s Land,
officially designated Tasmania on January 1, 1856; in 1859 the naturalist
Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.
It became a bestseller, despite accusations of blasphemy; in 1913 Peter
Lobengula, who migrated to the UK and sought voting and pension rights when he
claimed to be a son of the Ndebele king Lobengula Khumalo (a breakaway Zulu
group), died from tuberculosis, aged 38, in Salford (now Greater Manchester).
After his first marriage ended in divorce on the grounds of his adultery and
cruelty, he later married a Belfast-born woman and they had five children. On
his arrival in the UK he worked as a circus performer, for Zulu battle
re-enactments, and later as a labourer and coalminer. Although there were
sensationalist reports of his first relationship, there was a press campaign to
support his family at the end of his life; in 1963 Lee Harvey Oswald, charged
with the assassination of President John Kennedy, was shot dead by Jack Ruby in
Dallas, Texas; in 1974 a partial hominid skeleton, nicknamed Lucy, was
discovered in Ethiopia. The Australopithecus afarensis skeleton is dated to
about 3.2 million years.

NATURE NOTES

Curiosity might have killed the cat, but it’s made the sparrow one of the
world’s most successful birds. When anything happens near their colony, the
spuggies immediately investigate. Starlings searching the roofs for nesting
holes soon find themselves being shadowed and jostled by sparrows. Should the
starlings find a suitable site, the sparrows will often claim it for themselves.
When blue tits hover at windows, plucking flies from webs, the sparrows copy
them. And if they hear goldfinches land on a dandelion lawn, they rush down to
share the feast. This willingness to learn is one of their key evolutionary
advantages, but can it help them to survive in our tree-less, grass-mown,
polluted modern cities? Jonathan Tulloch

MIDDLE EAST WEALTH FUNDS DRAW US SCRUTINY OVER SECURITY RISKS
