Remarked to a friend re he didn’t name a difficult opponent. Friend remembered one player naming his wife in this category - maybe Frank Worthington?

12 March 1939 | A French Jewish boy, Roger Portigheis, was born in Nice.

He arrived at #Auschwitz on 20 December 1943 in a transport of 850 Jews deported from Drancy. He was among 505 people murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

The Trump regime has no idea what it’s doing hour to hour, just in case you thought there was some grand strategy in Iran

A jokey assumption. Leeds lack of quality public transport so exasperating I presume everyone notices 😃

Brilliant European women powered progress, but the credit did not always go to them.

Who's the billionaire behind London’s biggest mass eviction? He's the London philanthropist who says he's committed to solving homelessness. So why is Asif Aziz's Criterion Capital rushing to make hundreds of Londoners homeless in the coming weeks?

London’s “worst mass eviction in recent history” is underway; hundreds of households across London told to get out of their homes this week by the same landlord, ahead of the renters rights act. The landlord? Billionaire Asif Aziz’s Criterion Capital. www.londoncentric.media/p/asif-aziz-...

How Taliban’s new penal code puts husbands on par with ‘slave masters’ A Kabul-based legal adviser says it is now ‘impossible for women to get any justice’ in the Taliban-run courts. Arpan Rai reports

What is happening to women and girls in Afghanistan is beyond belief. World leaders HAVE to act now. This vile violation of human rights has to be ended!!! Why is so much of the world staying silent on this? www.independent.co.uk/asia/south-a...

Not heard of it either which I suppose isn’t surprising as it seems to have been buried. Could be made into a film although I say that to myself a lot

A copy of one of the original one-sheet posters for the film. The top half is mostly bold custom red type next to a small charcoal drawing of Kirk Douglas's character talking to the president (Fredric March): "I'm suggesting, Mr. President, there's a military plot to take over the Government of these United States next Sunday ..." Below this is a small illustration of the cover of the book on which the film is based next to the words, "The time is 1970 or 1980 or, possibly, tomorrow. From the astounding best seller." Below that are charcoal drawings of the heads of the four main stars, along with credits for other key cast members, the director (John Frankenheimer), and the screenwriter (Rod Serling).

Today in 1964, “Seven Days in May”—the topical thriller adapted by Rod Serling from the best-selling 1962 novel by Fletcher Knebel and Charles W. Bailey II, and starring Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster—opened at the Trans-Lux theater in Washington, DC. (It opened in New York City on February 19.)

This is that guy, the one that put the bill to heat his stables on his expenses, meaning that people who couldn't afford to keep their own homes warm were forced to pay for his horses to have central heating.
Here he is telling us he doesn't feel safe after he saw somebody that looked tired. B@lls.

‘So I can't eat hummus?" …you can eat hummus but just not Israeli hummus," says the volunteer’

‘It's no different from the actions of a political party like the Conservative Party or Labour Party who go door to door and ask people how they feel’

Policing what people eat isn’t canvassing opinion

The wrong teenagers were getting pregnant, that was the problem. Poor girls from working class backgrounds weren't about to deprive Matt Goodwin of academic jobs. It's the know-it-all smartypants lot who should be kept pregnant & out of men's competition pool.

A division of labor between conventional European forces and nuclear US forces would incentivize Russia to use nuclear weapons first in a European conflict in an attempt to force a partially disengaged United States to back down rather than risk nuclear war.
