Throwing away an old pair of socks is a matter of the greatest imaginable complexity. It requires an extensive state plan, supervised by a nongovernmental organization that imposes mandatory payment obligations on the company that made the socks. The socks have to be safely discarded, and that requires extensive planning by a public-private partnership.
All inevitable Los Angeles-inspired ‘pee on the sidewalks’ jokes aside, this is the sort of thing that is pretty terrifying.
A 100-year-old, 36-inch water main under storied Sunset Boulevard ruptured very early Thursday morning.

Seattle residents may no longer have to watch people engaging in lewd sexual conduct in Denny Blaine Park for All after a judge ruled that it constituted a public nuisance that substantially interfered with neighboring homeowners’ use of their properties.
The court ordered the City of Seattle to do more to deal with the issue while still allowing clothing-optional use on the lower beach area.
It’s never easy to uproot your life, but after a year of watching U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration crack down on 2SLGBTQ+ rights, especially for transgender Americans, Grace Mahoney and her partner, Kayden Burns, decided it was time to leave the United States.
“I’m queer, my spouse is also queer and non-binary, and it started becoming a very unsafe place for us, as it is for a lot of queer humans existing in the U.S.,” she said in an interview from her new home in Dartmouth, N.S., earlier this month.
The CBC never tires of these Drama Queens.
A judge has declared a surprise mistrial in the sexual assault case of Frank Stronach, voiding a guilty finding because the complainant’s lawyer made a clumsy attempt to extract money through Stronach’s lawyer, but ended up sharing information that contradicted the woman’s testimony under oath.
The shocking decision by Judge Anne Molloy overturns her recent finding that Stronach was guilty of sexually assaulting this woman, known as A.S., who once worked as a waitress in a bar Stronach owned.

Defence Minister David McGuinty is expected to announce next week in the United Kingdom that Canada will play a role in an international program to build the next generation of stealth fighter jets, CBC News has learned.

The U.K., Japan and Italy are all partners in the multibillion-dollar program to develop and build the sixth-generation fighter jet by 2035.
Lots of money to fall into the wallets of the connected.
More than five million Britons have been banned from referring to Americans as “Yanks” after a Scottish court ruled the term mounts to racial harassment.

Perhaps the most surprising part of the announcement of the joint Operation Hard Ball last week was how much the RCMP’s description of the actors involved in the killing of a Canadian Sikh activist differed from what it said only a short while ago.
“I firmly state that nothing has come out today to link the Indian government” to the operation, RCMP Deputy Commissioner Lisa Moreland told CBC’s Power & Politics.
“There’s no evidence to suggest through this organized crime investigation and the charges and the indictment laid forward that Indian officials were charged or involved
