    Russian ‘spy’ whale Hvaldimir spotted off Sweden coast
    https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/5/30/russian-spy-whale-hvaldimir-spotted-off-sweden-coast
    A beluga whale that turned up in Norway in 2019, sparking speculation it had been trained by the Russian navy because of a man-made harness it was wearing, has reappeared off Sweden’s coast, an organisation tracking his movements has said. When he first appeared in Norway’s northern Arctic region of Finnmark, marine biologists from the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries removed an attached harness with a mount suited for an action camera and the words “Equipment St Petersburg” printed on the plastic clasps. Directorate officials said at the time that the whale may have escaped an enclosure, and may have been trained by the Russian navy, as it appeared to be accustomed to humans. Norwegians nicknamed the beluga “Hvaldimir” – a pun on the word “whale” in Norwegian, hval, and “dimir”, a nod to its alleged association with Russia.

    Castro library limits Wi-Fi to hinder homeless after pressure from supe
    https://missionlocal.org/2023/05/eureka-valley-library-wi-fi-after-hours-encampment-homeless/
    The library, located at 16th and Pond near Market, has been limiting after-hours internet access since August 2022, following complaints from residents and pressure from District 8 supervisor Rafael Mandelman. The change is one of a raft of measures taken to make the sidewalk directly across from the library – which for years had been the site of an encampment – less inviting. “It was the worst spot in the district,” said Jackie Thornhill, legislative aide to Mandelman. She said that residents had frequently complained about loud music, crime, and “antisocial behavior” associated with the 16th and Market encampment. As well as limiting the library’s Wi-Fi, the supervisor’s office advocated for a mural behind the tents to be repainted and for a nearby trash can storage area to be dismantled. Sections of the sidewalk were also transformed into spots to grow plants, reducing potential camping space.

    No cellphone? No problem! The vintage radio enthusiasts prepping for disaster
    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/may/27/ham-radio-emergency-natural-disaster-climate-crisis
    The old-school technology has been around for more than a century. In lieu of smartphones and laptops, ham radio operators use handheld or larger “base station” radios to communicate over radio frequencies. The retro devices can range from the size of a walkie-talkie to the heft of a boxy, 20th-century VCR.

    Iran exchanges heavy gunfire with Taliban on Afghan border, escalating tensions over water rights
    https://apnews.com/article/iran-afghanistan-clash-water-rights-48324a0cdc9158713a39edae7460cd5e
    The Taliban and Iran have exchanged heavy gunfire on the Islamic Republic’s border with Afghanistan. The shooting Saturday sharply escalates rising tensions between the two countries amid a dispute over water rights. Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency quoted the country’s deputy police chief accusing the Taliban of opening fire first Saturday morning on the border of Iran’s Sistan and Baluchestan province and the Afghan province of Nimroz. IRNA said Iran inflicted “heavy casualties and serious damage.” The Taliban claimed Iran shot first and that two people on each side were killed while others were wounded. The clash comes as Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi earlier this month warned the Taliban not to violate Iran’s water rights to the Helmand River.

    Queensland sovereign citizen loses bid to carry guns after Rockhampton arrest attempt
    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-05-27/qld-sovereign-citizen-loses-bid-to-carry-gun-police/102398316
    A sovereign citizen has lost a bid to reinstate his gun licence after attempting to get a Queensland police officer arrested. Queensland man Nevin John Cartwright's firearms licence was revoked in May last year. He appealed the decision to the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT). In December 2021, Mr Cartwright went to the Rockhampton Police Station and demanded the officer-in-charge be arrested. As a result, his licence was suspended and then formally revoked.

    Indian Official Who Drained a Reservoir to Retrieve His Phone Is Suspended
    https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/27/world/asia/indian-official-drains-dam-lost-phone.html
    Say you drop your brand-new smartphone into a reservoir while posing for a selfie during a picnic. Would you consider it lost and buy a replacement, or drain the reservoir to retrieve it? An Indian official who chose the latter option has been suspended from his job. He is also facing the glare of the national news media in a drought-prone country where water is a precious commodity. The official, Rajesh Vishwas, 32, was picnicking with friends in central India on May 21 when he dropped his Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra into the Paralkot reservoir in Chhattisgarh State, where he lives. The $1,200 device is a new model, and Mr. Vishwas, a government food inspector, apparently decided that he had to have it back and claimed that it had official departmental data, according to NDTV, the Indian television station. Initially, some villagers he knew spent two days diving in the reservoir in an attempt to retrieve the phone, Mr. Vishwas told The Indian Express newspaper. No luck. So he rented a diesel pump and drained about three feet of water over another two days — by some estimates, enough to irrigate 1,500 acres of farmland.

    Iowa governor signs bill loosening child labor laws

    Iowa teenagers could work more jobs and for longer hours under a bill signed into law Friday by Gov. Kim Reynolds. The Republican governor signed the law after it was approved by the Legislature earlier in May with only Republican support. Several states are embracing a rollback of child labor laws in response to complaints from business owners that they can’t find enough workers. Iowa’s April unemployment rate was 2.7%.

    The family of a Louisiana Arby's manager who froze to to death in a walk-in freezer is now suing the fast food giant over claims that employees had complained the latch was broken on the door.

Her son, who also works at the Arby's, made the horrifying discovery. New Iberia Police said there were blood stains on the doors which showed that she was trying to escape, but eventually collapsed into a fetal position. A preliminary report from the coroner's office confirmed the mother-of-four died of hypothermia.
