Justice League, Daddy's Home 2 or Wonder.

Those were the choices I gave my 10-year-old nephew last night. It was my night to babysit and we were heading to the movies. He could either see the new superhero movie, a bawdy family comedy, or a children's novel adaptation which uses the story of a boy with facial deformities and his tough first year in school to teach its audience about the power of inclusion and kindness. My conscience hoped he'd pick the latter, but my more realistic expectation... Читать дальше...

Yesterday we popped into Turtle Bay Blackburn to sample their festive menu which has just recently launched and is available until the 31/12/17. There are a range of menus to suit all budgets and going Caribbean is a nice alternative to the usual Christmas fare, lots more exciting than Turkey. There is also plenty of choice for vegans, vegetarians and gluten free diners on the menu's on offer.

There are many impressive castles in France to visit! It's difficult to visit the country without stopping to seeing at least one of them.

Russell Simmons denies sexually assaulting a former model 26 years ago.

Weight gain is typical during pregnancy and doctors will also encourage moms-to-be to add a few extra pounds. But, if you are overweight/obese when you get pregnant, weight gain might make the pregnancy a tiring experience for you. Luckily, it is still possible to shed some weight when pregnant and do it safely without affecting the health of your unborn baby. However, losing weight during pregnancy requires a lot of dedication and commitment, and you have to be very careful when doing it. But... Читать дальше...

I didn't know it at the time, but I was witnessing what has turned into nearly two decades worth of hand-wringing over the following question: in the age of perpetual reboot/requel/revival should you carry over the accompanying musical themes we know and love from the older movies you're updating?

Can you think of any place or occasion when you have been able to go into a shop and order the same thing that you found there six years ago? Well, this is what I was able to do when I went to Laura Ashley to get some fabric to replace some curtains, once gently glowing and resplendent, but now sadly frayed and tatty.

Lena Dunham Feels That Her Only Problem Was Bad Timing

Dlisted favorite and attention enthusiast Lena Dunham cemented her “Most Hated Faux-Social Justice Warrior” status on Friday when she publicly disputed a woman’s rape allegation. Lena (alongside her frequent collaborator Jenni Konner) released a statement describing actress Aurora Perrineau’s rape allegation against Girls writer Murray Miller as “misreported.” To get an idea of how THAT went over, just take a scroll down yesterday’s...

What’s Unplugged all about?:

With references to The Wizard Of Oz, Unplugged follows a young woman who hears voices in her head which leads to dramatic consequences as she chooses to listen.

What did I think?:

It’s purely coincidence that this story rolled around as part of my Short Stories Challenge quite soon after I had posted a review of a novel also compared to The Wizard Of Oz, ...

Well lookee here two posts in three days!

When considering the Christian claim that Jesus was raised from the dead, one historical point often overlooked is the lack of evidence that Jesus’ body received a second Jewish burial. The evidence supports his death by crucifixion, burial in an unused tomb that was then found empty and his subsequent appearances to his disciples.

There is another "minor" drug scandal gong on in the frum community, though it is not getting much press that I can see.

Behadrei has reported on a a drug bust involving an avreich as the ringleader dealer, and 3 yeshiva boys as the mules. Among the 3 mules, 1 was actually a mule, 1 changed his mind at the last minute and did not agree to carry the suitcase, and the 3rd acted as some sort of agent bringing them together.

According to the claims of the prosecutor, this group ...

Happy Sunday! Today isn’t just any Sunday, it’s World Toilet Day.

In spite of the chuckle that may elicit, it’s no joke. World Toilet Day is an official UN observance meant to raise awareness of the global sanitation crisis. Something to think about as you enjoy the convenience of sanitary, indoor plumbing this Sunday.

Seeing as it’s also Sunday Funday, you can sit and think about such things while enjoying a few videos.  Where you do that sitting is entirely up to you…

Many people associate Washington State with Mount Rainier or Olympic National Park.  North of Seattle, however, is filled with wonderful mountain trails to entice any type of hiker or mountain enthusiast.  As a former resident of the state, I’m ashamed to admit that I didn’t get a chance to explore much of the trekking destinations in Washington.   Luckily, on a trip to California for a travel conference that I attended as part of my social enterprise, I managed to squeeze in a side solo trip to Seattle and do some hiking.

The game legal "ping pong" between th Rabbanut and its adversaries such as Hashgacha Pratit might soon come to an end, if this new law proposal will pass.
