Canada has taken yet another step toward authoritarianism by banning unvaccinated citizens from entering stores and other establishments without first showing proof of vaccination and a government-issued ID card. Canadians have been informed that only fully vaccinated individuals may enter stores such as IKEA, Walmart, Costco or any other large retailer, according to CBC News. The ministerial decree covers stores which are 16,146 square feet or larger, and excludes grocery stores, pharmacies and gas stations.

The First Gay PopeThe real reasons why Pope Francis is pushing Catholics to become more welcoming and less judgmental of gays and lesbians Bill Clinton has often been called the United States' "first Black president", even by many African-Americans.During his eight years in the White House (1993-2001), his policies and appointments were seen as promoting issues vital to the Black community and -- just as importantly -- helping to transcend the ugly racial divide that, unfortunately, still exists in "America".Toni Morrison, the writer who initially pinned the "first Black president" label to Clinton back in 1998, did not mean it...

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has made a change to its cartoon mascot Herbie Husker to eliminate confusion about the meaning of a hand gesture he makes that some people connect with white supremacy. In the original depiction of the mascot, which debuted in the early 1970s, Herbie’s left hand made the “OK” sign with the index finger and thumb forming a closed circle. In recent years, some hate groups have come to use the gesture as a sign for white power — three straight fingers make a ‘W’ and the circle formed next to an extended...

During the call, Putin argued that the West had refused Russians...

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has sacked the head of the state statistics agency, according to a decree published Saturday, after releasing data showing last year's inflation rate hit a 19-year high of 36.1 percent. Sait Erdal Dincer was just the latest in a series of economic dismissals by Erdogan, who has sacked three central bank governors since July 2019. Erdogan has railed against high interest rates, which he believes cause inflation – the exact opposition of conventional economic thinking. The 2021 inflation figure released by Dincer angered both the pro-government and opposition camps. The opposition said it was underreported,...

San Francisco updated its COVID-19 Health Order Thursday to exempt boosted individuals from its indoor mask mandate. Office workers, gym members and individuals in other “stable cohorts” will not be required to wear masks indoors if they are “up to date” on their COVID-19 vaccinations, according to a rule that will be officially adopted Feb. 1.

The supply chain for electric-vehicle batteries is uncomfortably dependent on China—for now, at least Competing with a much better-established Chinese industry isn’t an obvious proposition for investors, even with subsidies thrown in. That leaves U.S. car makers tentatively leading even the upstream supply-chain push, in alliance with the Energy Department. The future of EVs is often assumed to depend on solving consumer problems such as slow charging infrastructure and range anxiety. Instead, they could be slowed down more by the conundrum of building the foundations of a battery industry.

3,000 people live there-middle of nowhere-expensive to maintain. The last war over the place cost the Limeys $500k per person to save. They're keeping it just to prove a point. Think Guantanamo without credible threats to change. Now the Brits have cut down their military where another rescue mission would be impossible. All this based on principle. At this point any 'solution' to this dilemma will not happen without the bigger issue of 'saving face'. There is a way out and it will have to involve the US.
