Newspaper article “Faraday residents de-Phrag Bentley Lake”
I sometimes work for the local newspaper and 90% of the time get to write my own headlines.
This is my favourite one so far.

A jeep with items on the hood, roof, and on two platforms stuck to the back.
Dude parked next to me has more stuff attached to his vehicle than in it!
It’s like a jeep-octopus

The move would make Canada the third G7 state to do so, after the UK and France said they will make a similar move.
Mark Carney says Canada will recognise a Palestinian state in September.
The move is contingent upon the Palestinian Authority reforming its governance, demilitarising, and holding elections in 2026 without Hamas.

If the United States considers airdrops to be the solution to the hunger crisis affecting 2.2 million people, they will need to repeat such airdrops 50 times every day. That’s unlikely. Airdrops are the logistics solution of last resort. They are expensive, imprecise, and woefully inefficient. Airdrops introduce chaos and rob people of dignity.
The safety risks to people on the ground were sadly confirmed this Friday when five people were killed by falling aid packages after parachutes failed to open. Aid should be distributed by humanitarians based on need — but with airdrops, a combination of luck and physical strength dictates who gets to aid first, exacerbating inequity. Depositing aid packages over locations where bombs are also dropped can have devastating consequences especially if children go searching for aid packages and find unexploded ordnance.
Last year I wrote about why airdrops were a woefully inadequate solution to the needs in Gaza.
