Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport

Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

The NZ Govt travels the world telling people how they take their climate commitments seriously. But at home they dismantle every policy that constrains emissions and subsidise more emissions. So we've joined international efforts to hold them to account. www.greenpeace.org/aotearoa/pre...

Greenpeace joins complaint to EU over NZ climate policy reversal - Greenpeace Aotearoa

The complaint addresses Government reversal of climate policies, which Greenpeace has labelled a 'race to the bottom on environmental regulation'.

Black text that reads:

229 new affordable homes are coming to the Bronx.

We just broke ground on Sol on Park: • 80 homes for current NYCHA residents • 69 homes for formerly homeless seniors • 79 homes for low- and middle-income seniors • 8,000 sq. ft. of community space, including a health and wellness center

This is what’s possible when we invest in NYCHA and use the power of government to build a City where New Yorkers come first.

Yes-no. It’s way more sodium and adds in (likely) conflicting flavors, then you’re stuck with an open can of cream of not really food anymore condensed soup. However, I do suggest this mixture in place of all cream of stuff soups. Long-term cheaper. www.allrecipes.com/cream-of-any...

Cream of Anything Soup Mix

This homemade cream of anything soup mix is an easy pantry staple to use in place of canned condensed cream soup in casseroles and other favorite recipes.

Stickman Communications @stickmancomms.bsky.social · 18h

With hidden disabilities, people can often try to ‘encourage’ us by refusing to take no for an answer. Without realising it they can undermine important self management decisions. This card provides a way to help other people to understand that we we say no for a reason – it’s not a random -

This ‘No for a reason’ card says:

"When I say no, it’s because I’ve considered the options and consequences.
Please respect my decision. If you don’t understand it, there may be factors you aren’t fully aware of." It has a stickman holding old fashioned hanging scales. One side labeled 'benefit' with a small green sack in. The other side labeled 'cost' - with a much larger purple sack, and words: increased symptoms, worsened health, inability to do other tasks.

Yeah like that's going to happen. Have they seen the track record in Wānaka for driving out any developments that locals deem change the special nature of the town? Often claiming environmental reasons for opposition. In a town reliant on vehicles because there's no public transport
