    France's railway market is gradually opening up to increased competition, aligning with broader European Union efforts to liberalize rail transport. Trenitalia, Italy's state-run railway company, is planning to expand its Frecciarossa in France by launching a new high-speed service between Paris and Marseille in 2025. This move builds on Trenitalia’s existing presence in France, which includes routes like Paris to Lyon and Paris to Milan. This expansion reflects growing competition in France’s rail market, where the state-owned SNCF has historically dominated. With Trenitalia and other operators like Spain's Renfe entering the market, travelers could benefit from more options, competitive pricing, and improved services. The liberalization of rail services is intended to enhance connectivity across Europe and encourage a shift towards more sustainable forms of transportation.

    FIRST BIDEN-HARRIS CBP ONE BUS CARRYING ILLEGAL ALIENS ARRIVES AT BORDER "The first bus, sponsored by Biden-Harris’s CBP One app, arrived at the US border this week, where illegals from Central and South America will be admitted into the US. Under Mexico's new program, Secure Emerging Mobility Corridor, the bus arrived in Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico — just across the border from McAllen, Texas. The program was unveiled after a meeting between Biden and the Mexican president. "Illegals traveling to the US in the program get free transportation, meals, and security from the Mexico/Guatemala border to ports of entry in the US. There are 1,450 daily appointments available at several of ports of entry across the border. The CBP One smartphone app allows illegal aliens to schedule an appointment in the US to claim asylum and be released into the country permanently. More than 500,000 undocumented aliens enter under the CBP-One smartphone application yearly." So, if those who want to protect our country's bedrock of the law applying equally to everyone want to help stop the lawlessness at the southern border - the lawlessness being facilitated by this program, I guess (and I am not advocating for, but making an observation) a knowledgeable "white hat-black hat" could drop a virus into the CBP One program to destroy it beyond repair. After all, 1,450 entry appointments a day equates to 529,250 entries a year—and that is on top of those who didn't use the app and the "got aways." Yeah, Kamala, the border is secure...NOT! https://substack.com/profile/129788551-frank-salvato/note/c-69023653 #KamalaHarris #DebunkingKamala #Border #Illegals #Election2024

    The $53,000,000 Ghost Town of the 1800s 111,621 views Jan 12, 2024 In today's history documentary, we're covering the incredible story of Sutro Tunnel. The Sutro Tunnel was envisioned and carried out by Adolph Sutro. A Prussian immigrant and entrepreneur, Sutro proposed to build a drainage adit that would efficiently drain the water from the Comstock Mines, reduce transportation costs, ventilate the mines and protect the miners lives. The tunnel connected to the Savage Mine on July 8th, 1878, and on June 30th 1879, the adit connected to all mines and the first water was released. The tunnel runs 3.88 miles long from Dayton to Virginia City. More information: https://thesutrotunnel.org/

    Daily Life Disruptions The rise of mass tourism in popular destinations like Spain has led to significant backlash from local residents, who are increasingly voicing their discontent and taking action against the influx of visitors. The protests in Barcelona and Mallorca highlight the trash tourism has on local communities, from skyrocketing property prices to daily inconveniences caused by overcrowding. This phenomenon drives locals out of their homes as they can't compete with the high rents driven by short-term tourist accommodations. Daily Life Disruptions: The everyday life of residents is disrupted by the sheer number of tourists. Public transportation becomes overcrowded, and essential services like street cleaning are strained under the increased load, leading to a decline in the quality of life. Local Business Accessibility: Tourists occupying local restaurants and other facilities make it difficult for residents to enjoy their favorite spots. This contributes to a sense of alienation and frustration among locals. This issue is not isolated to Spain. Countries such as Japan, Austria, and Mexico are also Venice in Italy, grappling with the challenge of balancing the benefits of tourism with the needs of their residents. These nations are exploring ways to create sustainable tourism models that protect local communities while still benefiting from the economic boost that tourism provides. New ways, to encourage practices that minimize environmental impact and spread the benefits of tourism more evenly throughout the year can reduce the pressure on popular destinations. This includes promoting off-season travel and lesser-known attractions. The Big Infrastructure: Improving public services and infrastructure to handle the influx of tourists can mitigate some of the negative impacts. This might involve expanding public transport capacity and enhancing waste management systems. In substance, these challenges require a concerted effort from governments, businesses, and communities to develop strategies that promote sustainable and inclusive tourism.
