WTW: Grant Fisher Dumps Bowerman, Ethiopia Finally Rocks The Half Marathon, & Violence in the Ingebrigtsen Camp?
****Grant Fisher Leaves Bowerman TCLast week, the Bowerman Track Club saw yet another team member leave — Grant Fisher, the American record holder at 3,000, 5,000 and 10,000 meters. As a high schooler, Fisher won the national cross country championships (Foot Locker) twice, went sub-4 in the mile (3:59.38), and ran a 8:43.57 2-mile. She too is a Stanford grad who has improved tremendously since joining Bowerman in 2019, even more than Fisher. In Tokyo, Gjert told us he didn’t talk race tactics with Jakob as Jakob wouldn’t listen and Jakob won gold. You can now see who is in line to be qualified for a 2024 Olympic track & field spot — if they are selected by their home federation.

Ethiopia’s quest for sea access rattles port custodians Eritrea
“Ethiopia deserves to have access to the sea because of historical, geopolitical and economic reasons. Before then, access to the sea was mostly via Massawa and Assab on the Red Sea coast. The two countries did not enjoy good relations until 2019, and Addis was forced to deal with Djibouti for access to the sea. “When we had access to the Red Sea, we were one of the great powers,” the prime minister told lawmakers. Ethiopia, indeed, has every right to pursue access to the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean,” Dr Abiy asserted.

New round of GERD negotiations with Ethiopia launched in Cairo
The Egyptian Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation announced the launch of a new round of negotiations on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) between Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia in Cairo. This meeting follows up on recent negotiations held in Cairo and then Addis Ababa during the past two months, based on the agreement between the three countries. The ministry reported that Ethiopia backtracked during the final round of negotiations on a number of agreements previously reached between the three countries. Egypt and Sudan say they want a legally binding agreement on operating the dam, while Ethiopia says any pact should be advisory. Negotiations over the dam between Egypt, Ethiopia, and Sudan have stalled for years, with the three parties ultimately failing to reach any agreements.

Swiss Museum Reaches Last-Minute Restitution Agreement Over Cézanne Painting Headed to Christie’s
Museum Langmatt announced last month that it would be selling up to three Paul Cézanne masterworks in its collection at Christie’s upcoming 20th Century evening sale in New York in November. But, on Monday, the museum said that presale provenance research found evidence that the sale’s star lot Fruits et pot de gingembre (1890-1893) may have been sold to the institution under duress. The terms of the agreement were not announced, but the painting carries an estimate of between $35 and $55 million. The document calling the masterwork’s provenance into question surfaced after Christie’s announced the sale, according to the museum. Founded in 1990, the Museum Langmatt consists the Brown family home, Villa Langmatt, and the art collection Sidney W. and Jenny Brown.

1st Line and Torre Introduce Machine with Adjustable Steam Boiler Capacity
The new machine comes through a collaboration between New Jersey-based coffee equipment seller 1st Line and startup Italian espresso equipment maker Torre. The water-capacity feature on the Torre Peppina represents a departure from most steam boiler systems, which are typically built to adhere to a single non-adjustable factory-set capacity range. By adjusting the water level inside the 1.2-liter steam boiler, users can prioritize either greater steam capacity or greater hot water capacity. “This scenario would damage the heating element in the steam boiler because it would be exposed to air. When optimized for maximum steam output, the machine can deliver up to 600 milliliters of hot water.
