Cross-border shoppers beware: Canada bans raw chicken, eggs produced in states including Michigan | CBC News

Cross-border grocery shoppers might get a surprise on the way back — raw poultry and egg products produced in Michigan and 20 other states can’t be brought into the country due to the threat of avian influenza.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) says that all poultry products and byproducts that are not fully cooked and canned or hermetically sealed that were sourced, processed or packaged in certain U.S. states are not allowed to enter the country.

“These measures are being taken to prevent the introduction of avian influenza into Canada,” the CFIA stated in a notice posted online earlier this month.

“Made in Chile” Electric Buses, Another Stride Towards Electromobility | Inter Press Service

The manufacture in Chile of an electric bus christened Queltehue, a wading bird native to the country, is another step towards electromobility and in the fight against pollution that triggers frequent environmental crises and smog emergencies in Santiago and other cities.

The National Electromobility Strategy, updated and relaunched in 2021, aims for 100 percent of the public transport vehicle fleet and 40 percent of private cars to be electric by 2050. By 2035, internal combustion engine cars will no longer be sold in this country.

That means that in less than 30 years some five million vehicles will switch from fuel to electricity, avoiding the emission of some 11 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year and reducing spending on oil and petroleum products by more than 3.3 billion dollars a year.

Walter Benjamin Explains How Fascism Uses Mass Media to Turn Politics Into Spectacle (1935) | Open Culture

Fascism attempts to organize the newly created proletarian masses without affecting the property structure which the masses strive to eliminate. Fascism sees its salvation in giving these masses not their right, but instead a chance to express themselves. The masses have a right to change property relations; Fascism seeks to give them an expression while preserving property. The logical result of Fascism is the introduction of aesthetics into political life.

A Turkey Under the Bridge

The Twisting Tail

The hardest thing in life to learn is which bridge to cross and which to burn.

David Russell

Starting Point: Bridge


Six-word story: time will build

The divide was accepting of space.


“Build a bridge, get over it!”
A time-consuming endeavour
I could think of a better.
Bomb the river, scorch the earth
Leave nothing but a crater

The moment you build a bridge
You have to start worrying
about what’s under the bridge
Trolls, or maybe even
Stoned Californian rockers


Clickbait:
Red Hot Chili Peppers to re-release
Under the Bridge
For the soundtrack of the new ‘Trolls‘ film.


Not a joke: RHCP released their 12th studio album, 'Unlimited Love,' on April 1st, 2022.


Who said
Grandparents
Or those
reaching their golden years
Aren’t productive
Some are
Still releasing albums


It’s all a matter of wits
When you no longer have them
It’s time to call it quits
