Ryerson University students, staff write open letters calling for virtual learning option

COVID-19 pandemic drags on.“With merely two months left in this semester when the school plans to reopen, it is worthless to put students through this much work … I plead to Ryerson University to stay online for the remainder of Winter Semester and make more informed and data-based decisions in the future,” wrote mechanical engineering student Jwalit Bharwani.In an interview with Global News, Bharwani recalled falling ill with COVID-19 last year, but being able to complete his work virtually from home.“I had the privilege of online school … I had access to all the information on my computer. Now, if I fall sick, the professors are not recording lectures, the labs are completely in-person, so if I miss even five days of school, which is the CDC guideline, that’s a week’s worth of lectures gone,” he said.

Federal investigators share preliminary findings on Drexel Hill helicopter crash

PHILADELPHIA - The flight medic aboard an ill-fated helicopter that crashed in Drexel Hill told federal investigators that he and the flight nurse were "pinned to the ceiling" when a loud bang caused the chopper to barrel roll as it plummeted from the sky. The National Transportation Safety Board on Monday released a report that detailed the moments a Eurocopter EC-135 with four aboard fell from the sky in suburban Philadelphia while on route to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. The four-page report contains an onboard account from the flight medic and several witnesses on the ground. It details the track that the chopper took beginning around 12:50 when the helicopter that was cruising at 3,500 feet suddenly started to lose altitude. A witness, described in the report as an "aviation enthusiast" who was "familiar with the many helicopters flying to and from area hospitals," told federal investigators that he spotted the helicopter "in a nose-down attitude, far less than 1,000 ft above the ground, [and] rotating around its longitudinal axis."The chopper came to a crash landing on Burmont Road and Bloomfield Avenue near the Drexel Hill United Methodist Church.

Republicans press constitutional amendment term-limiting members of Congress

WASHINGTON - Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, joined five other Republicans on Monday in moving to restrict the number of times members of Congress can be reelected.The legislation revives Cruz's earlier idea for a constitutional amendment on term limits. If ratified, the measure would prevent senators from serving more than two six-year terms and House members from serving more than three two-year terms."Every year, Congress spends billions of dollars on giveaways for the well-connected: Washington insiders get taxpayer money and members of Congress get re-elected, all while the system fails the American people," Cruz said in a press release."It’s no wonder that the vast majority of Americans from every political stripe – Republicans, Democrats, and Independents – overwhelmingly support congressional term limits," he wrote.
