➡️ As my namesake, Saint Nicholas (Sinterklaas), was many centuries ago, I'm a real bishop, monk, protector of children & gift-giver.
I believe the greatest gift is love: a powerful message & one well-worth sharing.
Enjoy this 1-minute preview of a documentary about my work :-)}

My dad, 85 years old, suffering from the effects of a 2 year struggle with cancer, and chief of surgery at the Chinook Regional Hospital for decades, was moved from an already overcrowded space to an “overcapacity room” while he recovers from a stomach bleed and pneumonia. This is the room. 🧵🧵🧵

I've been asked by 3 media outlets in the last week to do interviews on the influenza season.

I still haven't seen our new CMOH, appointed Dec 18th, (or old one, for that matter. Or any public health official) in the media on this topic.

For the record, they are acutally paid, to do this.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Time to teleport:
Scientists have discovered that all matter can behave like a particle or wave. Waves can be in a bunch of places at once. Particles can tunnel, or teleport. That’s how I can be in many places at once on Christmas Eve.
A gentle reminder:
Love is the greatest gift :-)}

The Voith-Schneider Propeller is a vertical-axis marine drive whose spinning blades change pitch continuously, letting a ship generate instant thrust in any direction, like a helicopter rotor underwater. Super-maneuverable, perfect for tugs and ferries.
