The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

If Bari Weiss won't run this damaging story until CBS can get someone from the administration on camera, what motivation does the administration have to participate?
Bari Weiss this morning on the 60 Minutes segment: "We need to be able to get the principals on the record and on camera."
Of course, most journalists know that oftentimes people who are the subject of negative reporting don't want to speak on camera or on the record.

The UK will celebrate net emigration and depopulation come 2027.
And by 2028 it will start to realise, with an ageing society and low growth, what a really silly thing it has done.
The right will go "pro-natalist", the centre-left will be completely stuck.

For a utopian Paris bistrot I suspect you would like Chez Marcel on Rue. Small, convivial, superb cooking (best in class at its price point), no online bookings so effectively off the beaten track - naturally it’s always full but not to Bistrot PB standards of impossibility.

Not like it would be justified if they were drug smugglers, but I think it hasn't gotten enough focus that a boat with 11 people onboard heading from Venezuela to Trinidad was almost certainly migrants. These were probably, at least for some of them, people fleeing Maduro. That's who they murdered.

Bury me at sea
Where no murdered ghost can haunt me;
If I rock upon the waves
No corpse shall lie upon me.
It's coming up threes, boys
Keeps coming up threes, boys.
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry.
Where no murdered ghost can haunt me;
If I rock upon the waves
No corpse shall lie upon me.

I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never gonna keep me down

But I get up again

You're never gonna keep me down
