Good plan. Suggest you choose a story which was not the #1 story on all of the news media of the country in which it happened.

I see. Weird that the Internation edition of the Guardian would lead with a story of international interest, rather than a UK bribery scandal.

And it is the lead story on the Guardian website just now.

It led the BBC news website this morning during the sentencing phase (i.e. was the left side large 'live' story), and now is in position 3 on the home page.
Unsure what planet you're on.

CWGC's work in standardising cemeteries, headstones, and erecting Blomfield's Cross of Sacrifice, or Lutyens' Stone of Remembrance according to cemetery size and number of war dead is fascinating.

Their handling in the databases leaves much to be desired. IWM ignores them. Canmore mostly treats them as an undifferentiated war memorial. CWGC doesn't seem to have an accessible list of them & their locations. Wikipedia has a partial & short list. :(

Doesn't seem 'incredible' if the case gave rise to a specific idiom for the occurrence, and is well known to DC lawyers who actually have a clue.

This case is well-known to D.C. prosecutors. In fact, the process of taking an indictment where a portion has been rejected, re-drafting it, and presenting the amended version to the grand jury for a vote is called "Gaitherizing."

Or, OTOH, it does reflect well, because an argument can be made that the indictment's two counts were accepted by the GJ, and the magistrate was involved in the annotation of the No Bill. Where there is room for doubt, there is need for further focussed litigation.

Weird that a judge is proceeding cautiously & incrementally, but a VoIP and WebRTC guy is full of certainty. Who to trust, eh?

The court has, in essence, now asked both sides to comment on exactly that question. And the reason they have done that is because they are not a peremptory Bluesky poster and they would wish a dismissal to be properly discussed with respect the Circuit's prececents.

All perfectly normal and unbiased, Sooz. The BBC exculpated itself, saying "a photomontage is an established technique in journalism to make a point visually and succinctly". So that's okay then.
