Exploring Canada’s Worst Street

James Holzhauer had his closest game so far yesterday on Jeopardy!, if they can keep finding challengers like that, this will only get more exciting.

Quote from this article is a scary thought. Hopefully science will find a way to combat the growing threat of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

“By the year 2050, it is estimated there are going to be more people who are going to die from antibiotic-resistant infections than cancers, all combined,” Kao said Tuesday afternoon."

Absolutely. I'm not sure that people in general understand how much influence modern medicine has had on the life expectancy in recent times.
For those who don't know, there is a uk website called Freebmd that allows users to search the birth, marriage and death registrations in the UK from 1837 until the early 1980s, good for family history searches, but also for research, It can be found at https://www.freebmd.org.uk/search
I invite anyone to search for deaths of any name for a period from 1866 when ages at death are shown and examine the ages of those who died and the proportion of those who were children. It's a frightening view of the future should anti-biotics become non effective.
You'll see that as time passes, especially after WW1 the proportion of children dying does fall but, the grim reaper still takes his cut compared with recent times.

Very good, although that site isn't for the UK, it's just for England & Wales. But the point is valid, there is a biological reason human women were designed to have 10+ babies. Probably only 4 of them would make it to reproductive age themselves. We live in very privileged times, these anti-vaxxer idiots should be put on an island and left to putrefy.

Yup. Not just anti-biotics. Housing conditions. Vaccinations. Medical and dental help.
I do not take an anti-biotic unless I really must.

Unfortunately most of the meat you eat (if you do eat meat) is raised with far less concern about antibiotic abuse.

Yes. I know this .

Good video! I know most of the places shown in that, and have seen how things have changed over the past 40 years. The Beat is good as well; it's an old show now, but the episodes on youtube are still relevant.

Anyone surprised how many fivers are still in circulation and used in change?

Maybe I'm remembering it wrong but if I was getting £7 or £8 change in the UK it was usually 3x£2 and £1 or £2 x4. Hardly ever a fiver.
If I get $7 or $8 here, it's $5 plus the coins. Even if I'm getting $15-$19, the chances are there will be 3 x $5 involved and no $10.

The introduction of the £2 coin in the UK greatly reduced the need for fivers but we also have a $2 coin here and yet fivers-a-plenty.

Never really thought about it.

Guess it makes sense they are popular, easier to make change with a $5 vs all coins, not really too keen on getting all coins if I am getting $6 or $8 back.

I love these sorts of videos. I wish I could fly often.

$5 notes are useful .............. if we stay in a hotel, I leave a $5 + thank you note every morning for the hotel maid.

$5 is the usual minimum tip I give the person who takes me in a golf cart or wheelchair from the Lounge in the Railway Station to the train.

We usually go away on our Christmas trip across Canada with at least $50 in fivers between us ........... because, strangely, we rarely get $5 in change during those 3-4 weeks

Nice house <$125k

I like old houses like that. Oh the TV in the photo, haven't seen one of those since I was very young.

Old houses like that have character.

Using the calculator on the realtor site, a mortgage on that house would be $1,100 cheaper per month then our apartment.
