Just dropping this one in here.
Egypt moved 22 mummies yesterday. 18 male 4 female from one museum to another with a lavish ceremony.
Could be something or nothing. Just found the whole parade a bit 'sinister'.
Photo's and video at link.

A series of unfortunate events followed the Suez Canal accident: train collision killing 39, a building and a bridge collapsing in Cairo and Mariotiya, and fires at a busy station. Is this the curse of Pharaoh El-Sisi?
"The parade is very important not only for Egypt but for the whole world because 22 kings will walk in the streets of Cairo as magic," he added.
Instead, Hawass said locals and foreign tourists will be able to see for themselves the "secrets" held by each mummy once they're on display.

The oldest mummy in the group is that of King Seqenenre Tao, the last king of the 17th Dynasty, who reigned in 16th century B.C. and is thought to have met a violent death.

A company being public ally traded does not make their places of business a public spaces.
Not even the point at all, as seems to be normal for some of you repeat offenders.
If a place of business is open for John Q Citizen to do business with them, then they are open for black, hispanic, and asian folks too and you know this. Open for one open for all that is the law. No tyranny allowed on any non laws I have to follow as a Black or any other race or creed. Black people can't be told they can't come in a public place, and that is the point where the argument hits a logic flaw when you extend it to mask "rules" that are not at all laws nor should the be. Truly private places like your home are ok for you to make me wear a mask to come in. Yes, it is your right or I don't go in there.
Are you saying then that they can make people do what their told without a law to force them if they are white? But not if you are black?
If I am required to wear clothes or not go in is upheld by the laws on the books. Not going in because I don't wear a mask is not and it will be tyranny when it is law.
These constant fake arguments are as lame as several others on here and are quite boring at this point.

Sorry but;
fullfact.org...
From that link:
This is all true but, needless to say, this is a pretty selective and misleading approach to translation and etymology.
Also from the link:
It said Zeneca is an invented name created by an agency which was instructed to find a name which began with a letter from either the start or end of the alphabet, was memorable, had no more than three syllables and wasn’t offensive in any language.
Since it is an invented name, how can any translation be selective or misleading?

It should be easy to end this argument if it bores you. Find a citation for the law you claim exists making it illegal for companies to require masks and makes a distinction between your definition of public and private space. A public company is only open to public patronage. It has nothing to do with physical rights to property or local ordinances related to wearing clothes (which probably falls under obscenity laws). Being a public company does not make you a public commodity for use by the public at large and that extends to property rights. Laws against discrimination have nothing to do with their dress code.
A business can ask you to leave for not wearing what they seem appropriate clothing. I've been refused service for not having a shirt with tie and suit jacket. The laws that protect people from discrimination do not protect people that don't want to wear masks. Those laws set out specific reasons it is illegal to discriminate against people for. Masks are not on that list.
There is a significant distinction between a mask mandate ordered by government and a company making a decision to require masks independent of government mandate.
There's a whole bunch of room to argue that it is not within the rights of the state to require a business enforce their masks mandate, in fact some states make it illegal for the state to force local jurisdictions to enforce unfunded mandates. They know this which is why they send out their compliance gestapo. They hold the business license (and use the building capacity which is fire safety and has nothing to do with infectious disease) hostage. The fact that all these laws are being manipulated across city, county, and state jurisdictions, means that almost none of the government mandates were vetted properly and in almost all cases exceeded the spirit, if not the letter, of the public health laws they claim to use for the mandates.
I disagree with mask mandates. If individual companies want to have them there's nothing that can be done to stop them short of law. Forcing a company to not require masks is as much of an overreach as forcing them to require masks. It's two sides of the same authoritarian coin.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) became law in 1990. The ADA is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public. The purpose of the law is to make sure that people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. The ADA gives civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities similar to those provided to individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age, and religion. It guarantees equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities in public accommodations, employment, transportation, state and local government services, and telecommunications. The ADA is divided into five titles (or sections) that relate to different areas of public life.
As discussed below, Title II’s substantive protections are contained in its first three sections.88 The first section generally provides that all persons “shall be entitled to the full and equal enjoyment” of goods and services of certain establishments that constitute places of “public accommodation,” “without discrimination or segregation on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin.”89 Title II also prohibits discrimination or segregation where mandated by state or local laws or rules, regardless of whether the establishment at issue constitutes a place of “public accommodation” under the first section.90 A third section prohibits interference with those federal statutory rights.91

I wonder why they get a deadline of Noon tomorrow, yet they will wait 6 days at least to spill the beans. That doesnt sound very intimidating if you are pressuring someone into a corner to come clean. Or am I reading it all wrong?
I would think if you hadnt come clean by Noon, I would be prepared to go with what I have by 1:00 pm same day at the latest.
