The boil water advisory has been lifted for Wheatley, Tilbury, and surrounding areas.

Public health officials received satisfactory test results from the water samples taken on October 1st and 2nd.

The advisory was first issued on Wednesday, September 13 due to a loss in water pressure following a fire that broke out at the Wheatley Water Treatment Plant early Wednesday afternoon, rendering the plant not operational for the time being.

The Boil Water Advisory issued September 13th, 2023 to all consumers of the Wheatley and Tilbury Municipal Water Distribution Systems is no longer in effect. Please read full details at our newsroom https://t.co/ERzOyCAFmM pic.twitter.com/tVRewC6YCG

Elon has made another tweak to X, formerly known as Twitter, that is really going to aggravate people: The site and its apps no longer display the headline for articles that are shared to X.

Back in August, Musk said, “This is coming from me directly. Will greatly improve the esthetics.”

The change will alter the way media companies and publishers share content, since without the headline appearing below the image, a post will lack context unless the headline is included as the text of the post. Articles shared to X still link back to the original site, by clicking on the featured image.

Today is World Teachers’ Day.

It’s a day to celebrate how teachers are transforming education, but also to reflect on the support they need to fully deploy their talents, and rethink the way ahead for the profession globally.

This year’s theme for World Teachers’ Day is “The teachers we need for the education we want: The global imperative to reverse the teacher shortage”.
