Trump's Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just said she doesn't want anything but math, reading and writing to be taught in American classrooms.
It will come as no surprise to anybody that she got into college on a softball scholarship.

As I held my dying daughter's hand, what did I feel? Pride...
My daughter Iona was born 32 years ago. She arrived at home, in such a rush to enter the world that my wife was unable to reach the nearby hospital.

Having spent the last few weeks talking to voluntary and community groups about the importance of Annual Health Checks for people with #LearningDisabilities, it’s incredibly hard to understand why the NHS have removed the 75% target.

Who is Paula White?
Paula left her first husband for second one before cheating on him. Married Jonathan Cain of Journey, broke into the band's bank account, stole thousands, then ran a Ponzi Scheme and grifts at a Megachurch.
She also now leads the White House Faith Office

Can anyone help me understand this conclusion of the HSCC on Assisted Dying laws. I thought the Canadian legislation began with "reasonably foreseeable" death then expanded? publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm5804/cm...

Very sad, a regular haunt in my teens and student days.
Very sad to learn that this renowned music shop is closing in Newcastle. As a teenager I used to visit after school and listen to Bowie in one of their stereo listening booths and then browse through the records and sheet music and wish I could afford a posh guitar. It will be much missed. Neil x
