Japanese amusement park gives new meaning to the term 'telecommuting'

A Japanese amusement park has found something unique against the monotony of telecommuting in these corona times. Yomiuriland, an amusement park near the Japanese capital Tokyo, rents out the cabins of its Ferris wheel as an 'office space with a view'. The booths feature free WiFi, report CBS News. A seat in the cabin costs $ 18 for an hour. The Ferris wheel continues to rotate as usual, taking the occupants up to 152 meters into the air. "A lot of tenants told us that time flew by," said amusement park spokesman Yu Okutani. Well, you have to do something with your money and time.

Decade Dick: Almost all participants passed the traffic exam

Freek Bredius was a guest in Decennium Dick on behalf of Safe Traffic Netherlands department Krimpen aan den IJssel. He was able to tell us that 421 children participated in the practical traffic exam today. All but five children passed. Congratulations to all! The children who did not make it turned out to have cycled on the route with their hands free. The route started and ended at the Tuyter. Mayor Martijn Vroom was present to officially start the first class. 7.3 Kilometers was cycled and the children of the groups 7 and 8 passed all kinds of difficult intersections and traffic situations in Krimpen aan den IJssel. What was very annoying and difficult was that there have been young people who removed or turned around signs from the route. In addition, some plates are irreparably damaged. It was the first time that this happened on the day of the traffic test. Your browser does not support this audio player. You can download the file . Also in this edition of Decennium Dick a...

Renewed culture agenda in development!

Behind the scenes, a lot of work is being done to develop a renewed culture agenda for shrinking; SHRINKING AGENDA.
