    According to this:
    The “giant pothole” that Arnold Schwarzenegger filled on a street in his Los Angeles neighborhood was actually a trench dug for utility work. The Los Angeles Department of Public Works says Southern California Gas Co. had covered the trench with temporary asphalt after pipeline work in January. Months of heavy rains have turned roads into tire-popping swiss cheese, so Schwarzenegger struck a chord Tuesday when he released a video of himself and a crew filling the depression. He tweeted that it had been “screwing up cars and bicycles” for weeks so he decided to do something about it. SoCal Gas says permanent paving was delayed by rain.


    Nothing happened.
    The pothole was no pothole but an utility trench which had a delay in getting filled by the gas company (that worked there before) due to rain.
    A day after Arnold filled the trench, the gas company came and finished the work that Arnold begun

    Nope, AFAIK that was for taking away children from recently occupied cities like Kherson or Mariupol.
    Often also Children from orphanages / children homes against the protest of their caretakers there

    Wasn't that based on Russia taking kids from the Donbas? From what I understand the parents wanted to get their kids away from the warzone, at least for a few weeks. They'd prefer anonymity lest they be killed for 'collaboration' or abducted to serve on the front line.

    There's a scene in The Patriot where Mel Gibson's character asked why he should trade one tyrant 3000 miles away for 3000 tyrants 1 mile away.

    A paralysed man has been able to walk simply by thinking about it thanks to electronic brain implants, a medical first he says has changed his life.


    Gert-Jan Oskam, a 40-year-old Dutch man, was paralysed in a cycling accident 12 years ago.

    The electronic implants wirelessly transmit his thoughts to his legs and feet via a second implant on his spine.

    The system is still at an experimental stage but a leading UK spinal charity called it "very encouraging".

    "I feel like a toddler, learning to walk again," Mr Oskam told the BBC. He can also now stand and climb stairs.

    "It has been a long journey, but now I can stand up and have a beer with my friend. It's a pleasure that many people don't realise."

    Science

    Soon they'll also test something that lets presidents declassify stuff by thinking about it...

    Russia placed ICC boss Karim Khan on a wanted list, after he issued an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin.


    The ICC said at the time there were reasonable grounds to believe both Mr Putin and Ms Lvova-Belova bore individual criminal responsibility.

    The Kremlin's investigative committee in turn announced this week that it would begin an investigation into Mr Khan for the "criminal prosecution of a person known to be innocent"
