For the cost of $285 million, Milan will be building 466 miles of fully separated bike lanes. Building a fully interconnected bike network for 35% of the cost of rebuilding a Chicago highway interchange is simply a no-brainer.
It's holiday season so of course a couple with their camper van thought it acceptable to break my fence and camp overnight on my land. They are now blocked in with our small tractor, should be fun when they wake up.
Is it me or is the news world spinning faster these days? In the space of a week we’ve had the end of Johnson’s political career, the proof that inflation is not under control, the drama of the missing Titan sub & an attempted coup in Moscow. Plague of locusts next? Or can we take Sunday off?
A sad, sad day for those of us who grew up adoring and obsessing over Marvel comics. The great John Romita Sr has died. A wonderful artist and a truly beautiful, kind, generous, compassionate and thoughtful man. He was the rock that provided a gloriously rendered foundation to Marvel in those years when it grew and prospered and became the powerhouse of ideas it is today. Thank you John for sharing your magnificent genius
Police in Turkey have successfully recovered an ancient Bible believed to be around a thousand years old. The sacred text, discovered in the city of Tokat, central Turkey, is written in the ancient Assyriac language. The invaluable manuscript was retrieved following an attempt by smugglers to sell it to undercover officers.
The origin of the Bible remains unknown, although it is written in the ancient Assyriac language. While its cover is reportedly damaged, its remaining 51 pages feature intricate images and religious motifs crafted in gold leaf. Among its contents are depictions of Jesus Christ and various other figures from biblical lore.
According to reports, a series of operations were launched in Tokat's city center and the neighboring Turhal district. As a result, ten individuals were apprehended, and additional valuable items such as jewelry and ancient coins were seized. The Bible itself was promptly delivered to a museum. Scholars and historians anticipate that this ancient tome will provide invaluable insights into the development of Christianity during past centuries.

I've always suspected that an advanced alien civilisation with the technology to travel at close to light speed across interstellar distances would arrive in Earth orbit unobserved and proceed to dispatch a fleet of small, easily detectable balloons into our atmosphere.
