Up until the mid-1950s, you could climb aboard the "Golden Chariot," an electric-powered, open observation tramway that snaked its way up #Montreal's Mont-Royal, built between 1905 and 1924.

Other Canadian cities had them too: #Calgary, #Vancouver, #Quebec City.

MERA25 Italy supports the popular shareholding of the GKN Factory Collective - MERA25 Italy

โ€œItaly is a Republic founded on labour,โ€ states the Italian Constitutionโ€˜s first article. But what happens when labour loses its value? Globalisation, together with technologies that centralise wealth, like artificial intelligence, is creating mass unemployment, leaving many out of the job market. How can we stop financial capital from taking the lead? How can we protect the dignity of thousands of workers? In short: how can we imagine and build a different kind of economy?

Das Bild zeigt ein weiรŸes Schild mit schwarzer Schrift, das an einem Metallpfosten befestigt ist. Das Schild informiert รผber eine Erlaubnispflicht fรผr E-Motor und Segelboote, die bei der Tourist-Info erhรคltlich ist. Es wird auch angegeben, dass V-Motoren verboten sind. Im Hintergrund ist ein ruhiger See mit einem Bootshaus zu sehen, das an den Uferbereich angrenzt. Das Schild ist an einem Ort angebracht, der wahrscheinlich ein touristisches Interesse darstellt, da es sich um eine Regulierung fรผr Wasserfahrzeuge handelt.

My fellow Europeans, in the last few days the Ban Conversion Therapy initiative has gone form ~300,000 to ~700,000 signatures. There is still one day left! If you haven't yet, you can do the right thing by signing now.

La imagen muestra una secadora y una lavadora de color azul vibrante, ubicadas en una lavanderรญa. Ambas mรกquinas tienen puertas de cristal con un diseรฑo circular, y se pueden ver prendas de ropa dentro de ellas. La lavadora tiene una etiqueta amarilla en la parte superior de la puerta. En el suelo, frente a las mรกquinas, hay una cesta de plรกstico negra con dos calcetines blancos colgando. El fondo es de un azul uniforme, y se pueden ver partes de otras mรกquinas de lavanderรญa al fondo. La imagen tiene un aspecto lรบdico, con las mรกquinas pareciendo tener "ojos" debido a las puertas de cristal.
โ€•
La imagen muestra un grifo metรกlico con un diseรฑo que evoca una cara. El grifo, de color plateado, estรก centralizado y tiene un pomo en la parte superior, que sirve como la nariz. A ambos lados del grifo, hay dos accesorios circulares que parecen ser vรกlvulas, simbolizando los ojos. La superficie en la que estรก montado el grifo es de color rosa pรกlido, con una textura lisa. Debajo del grifo, hay una ranura horizontal que podrรญa ser un drenaje, y se observa un ligero desgaste y manchas de รณxido, lo que sugiere que el grifo ha estado expuesto a la intemperie. La imagen es una representaciรณn creativa que transforma un objeto funcional en una imagen facial.
โ€•
La imagen muestra una lavadora de carga frontal blanca con una puerta abierta. La lavadora tiene dos mandos rotativos en la parte superior, uno para seleccionar el ciclo de lavado y otro para ajustar la cantidad de agua. Tambiรฉn hay varios botones y luces LED para controlar las funciones adicionales. Dentro de la lavadora, se puede ver una prenda roja que sobresale por la abertura de la puerta, lo que sugiere que la lavadora estรก en proceso de lavado o que se estรก retirando la ropa. A la izquierda de la lavadora, hay una cesta de ropa transparente, posiblemente utilizada para transportar la ropa. La lavadora estรก colocada sobre un suelo de madera, y la imagen estรก tomada desde un รกngulo ligeramente elevado, enfocando en la parte frontal de la lavadora.
โ€•
La imagen muestra la parte trasera de un automรณvil, enfocรกndose en los faros traseros y la parte inferior del parachoques. Los faros traseros son redondos y de color rojo, con un diseรฑo clรกsico que sugiere que el vehรญculo es de una รฉpoca pasada, posiblemente de los aรฑos 50 o 60. Entre los faros, hay un pequeรฑo cรญrculo rosa que podrรญa ser un indicador de reversa o un adorno. El parachoques es de color plateado y presenta signos de desgaste, como araรฑazos y manchas, lo que indica que el vehรญculo ha estado expuesto a los elementos durante un tiempo. La imagen tambiรฉn muestra una parte del tubo de escape, que es rectangular y tiene un acabado metรกlico brillante. El fondo de la imagen incluye vegetaciรณn verde, lo que sugiere que el vehรญculo estรก estacionado en un รกrea al aire libre, posiblemente en un camino o un รกrea rural.

Das Bild zeigt eine winterliche Landschaft mit einem schneebedeckten Hang, der von dichten, bewaldeten Hรผgeln umgeben ist. Im Vordergrund fรผhrt ein schmaler, von Reifenabdrรผcken gezeichnete Weg durch das Schneebedeckte Gelรคnde. Ein einzelner Person in einem roten Mantel ist auf dem Weg zu sehen, der sich von links nach rechts windet. Links im Bild steht ein kleines, rustikales Holzhaus, das von Schnee bedeckt ist. Die Bรคume sind mit Schnee bedeckt und die Luft ist neblig, was die Szenerie in ein mystisches Licht taucht. Der Himmel ist grau und bedeckt, was auf eine kalte, winterliche Atmosphรคre hinweist.

WARREN ZEVON
Warren Zevon
1976 Canada pressing

One of the most underrated songwriters of his (or anybody elseโ€™s) generation.

Zevonโ€™s real life was as wild and insane as those of the characters in his songs. Over that life, he offered up an incredible run of albums, of which this is one of his very best.
โ€œHasten Down The Windโ€, โ€œThe French Inhalerโ€, โ€œMohammedโ€™s Radioโ€, and the stunning โ€œDesperados Under The Eavesโ€; all remarkable songs.

On a related note, if you havenโ€™t seen it, go on YouTube and search out the David Lettermsn show where Zevon was his only guest.

Warren was dying, and Dave gave him a wonderful send off. Itโ€™s an incredibly moving tribute to the man. Zevon is funny even while starting death in the face, and his live performances are essential viewing.

Just an all time legend, who enriched our lives along the way with incredible art.
