The Claim Chris Saccoccia, who is known for protesting COVID prevention measures such as face masks and lockdowns in Canada, suggested in a tweet on Wednesday that the government of Sweden had banned Moderna’s COVID vaccine. Saccoccia, who is better known Chris Sky. wrote: “Moderna is now banned in Sweden thanks to myocarditis. “How many morons took the Moderna jab or gave it to their children?” He has 106,000 Twitter followers and at time of writing the tweet had received around 600 retweets and 1,380 likes....

Kim Dotcom, the German-Finnish founder of file-sharing website Megaupload, tweeted about General Valerii Zaluzhnyi on his Twitter account on Sunday, with the post subsequently shared thousands of times by other users. Dotcom is currently fighting extradition to America after the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) branded Megaupload a “worldwide criminal organization” that was directly responsible for $500 million worth of copyright breaches. But Dotcom, who was born Kim Schmitz and now lives in New Zealand, argues that he was not responsible for how others used the platform....

On January 4, acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller approved a request from D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser to deploy the D.C. National Guard to support local authorities during the demonstrations. This anticipatory move comes after protests in November and December led to “a large influx of participants, violence and criminal activity,” the mayor said in her request to Maj. Gen. William J. Walker, the commanding general of the D.C. National Guard (DCNG)....

President Bush took another tack, dusting off a couple of golden oldies that he said would help halt the escalation in motorists’ costs: allowing companies to drill for oil in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and encouraging construction of more refineries. But opening up ANWR would lead to a negligible bump in world oil supply, and would provide barely five percent of what the U.S. consumes today. The spigot wouldn’t even be fully opened until the mid 2020’s – if Congress acts now, which isn’t at all likely....

Yesterday, Hillary Clinton reiterated her debate-night swipes at Obama on a host of issues, including Ronald Reagan, Iraq and health care. The goal: to undermine Obama’s greatest strength–the perception that he’s not a typical politician–by painting him as a timid, flip-flopping panderer (i.e., a typical politician). In response, the Obama camp said Clinton and her husband are “willing to say anything, distort anything, and twist anything in order to win an election....

Police have yet to identify a suspect after Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were found dead at an off-campus house in Moscow on November 13. In the weeks since, Moscow Police have held several press conferences to provide updates on the investigation. At the most recent one, on November 23, a woman stood up and identified herself as Destiny Martin with The Pathfinder, the student-run newspaper at Lewis-Clark State College in Lewiston, Idaho....

Monaco overtake Barca as Europe’s top scorers The Ligue 1 leaders were 2-1 up in the last-16 first-leg clash when they were awarded a spot-kick early in the second half, but Falcao’s tame effort was easily saved by Willy Caballero and Sergio Aguero equalised eight minutes later. Despite Falcao then adding to his earlier goal with a glorious chip, further strikes from Aguero, John Stones and Leroy Sane at the Etihad Stadium left Monaco with plenty of work to do on home soil....

The Falcons wide receiver was handed a year-long suspension on Monday, with the NFL banning Ridley for a year after it was discovered that he had gambled on games during his time away from the field earlier in the year. While the Falcons wideout was away from the game due to mental health issues, he also maintained radio silence on the Tweet Machine while he was away from the field....

Hurts suffered a sprained shoulder in Philadelphia’s 25-20 win over the Bears on Sunday, according to multiple reports. It’s unclear how long the injury will keep him sidelined, but the consensus seems to be he is doubtful to play against the Cowboys this weekend. Hurts has been the driving force behind the Eagles’ spectacular season so far. He is averaging 300 total yards and 2.5 total touchdowns per game and finds himself right in the thick of the MVP race....

Jalen Hurts helped the Eagles get back in the playoffs with rookie coach Nick Sirianni. They are faced with a tall task of outdueling Tom Brady and savvy Bruce Arians.

Early treatment can prevent further loss of hearing and help in the maintenance of quality of life....

The Las Vegas sports book operator, along with many others in town, opened the Seahawks as 2.5-point favorites during the third quarter of New England’s 45-7 victory. By the late fourth quarter, the Pats were the 1-point favorite. “We opened (Seattle) -2....

The United States alone will be sending an official delegation of around 300, expected to be headed by Environmental Protection Administrator William Reilly. That counts the congressional “observers,” led by Gore and Rep. Dante Fascell, Democrat of Florida, but not the visit by President Bush himself, plus however many aides it takes to push him on the airplane and make him go. For a long time the Environment President seemed unable to make himself attend the environmental summit....

As is tradition, three all-star games are scheduled over the next week, beginning with the East-West Shrine Bowl in St. Petersburg, Florida, on Saturday.

Maybe not, but Hungary’s true face has been hard to discern. As elsewhere in Central Europe, some impressive economic growth rates now seem to mask a messy picture of political immaturity and financial incompetence that threatens disaster. “Central Europe is a mess,” says Anders Aslund of the Institute for International Economics in Washington. “These countries just stopped undertaking good economic policies when they joined the EU.” Hungary stands out, if only because it was once seen as a lodestar of respectable stability....

Once the temperature reaches above 40 °F (4 °C), bacteria can begin growing, which is why it’s important not to leave the turkey out at room temperature for too long. Keep the turkey covered while it’s in the fridge. Either throw the bones away or store them in a separate container to turn into turkey stock. You can make a wonderful soup with the carcass if you choose to save it!...

Penetrating fluid acts as a lubricant that works well for eating through rusted metal. Apply a little penetrating fluid every day if you aren’t able to pull your hitch out right away. That way, it will loosen up and be easier to remove with other methods too. Be careful on your backswing so you don’t accidentally hit or damage your vehicle. If you’re able to get underneath your vehicle, check if the back of the receiver is hollow....
