En Dordogne, un potentiel candidat aux municipales poursuivi pour emploi de travailleurs sans-papiers
Cyrille Déchenoix, patron de Drop Intérim, fait campagne pour la mairie de Saint-Astier, en Dordogne. Pourtant cet ancien de l’UMP, déjà condamné deux fois pour prise illégale d’intérêt, est de nouveau visé par une procédure judiciaire. Cette fois, pour emploi de travailleurs sans papiers.

Japan Daily on Instagram: "Abandoned suitcases are becoming a growing issue at Narita Airport, where nearly 900 pieces of luggage have already been collected this fiscal year—about nine times more than four years ago. Police say around 10% of the bags are empty, suggesting intentional disposal, with storage and disposal costs ultimately borne by taxpayers. The problem extends beyond airports to train stations and public spaces, often linked to travelers avoiding disposal fees after shopping. In response, Narita Airport is testing solutions such as clothing compression machines to help travelers save space and avoid buying new luggage. Retailers and repair businesses are also encouraging reuse through free take-back and resale programs, aiming to reduce waste and promote more sustainable travel habits."

Es sieht so aus, als ob der Artemis-II-Start verschoben wird. Die Startfenster im März würden sich damit schließen, aber wenn die Verschiebung bald erfolgt, bleiben die Optionen für April erhalten.

The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs sees no specific security problems in traveling to the US. By now, I think they should at least make it orange for people of color traveling there.
