Mark was always a voice that you could trust. He is sorely missed.
Rest well, Sir Mark.💚

Sad to learn of the death of former BBC foreign correspondent Sir Mark Tully. For so many years he was known as the ‘Voice of India.’ As a tribute I play one of the pieces Sir Mark selected on BBC Radio’s Desert Island Discs: Danny Boy.

"Everybody's got a right to love
Everybody's got a right to lie
But the choice U make ain't no piece of cake
It ain't no motherfuckin piece of pie
What If time's only reason?
Was to give us all somethin' 2 fear?
And if so y'all, the end of the journey's so clear..."

Alex Pretti was already restrained when federal agents shot and killed him in Minneapolis, a New York Times analysis of video shows. The footage contradicts the Department of Homeland Security’s account of the shooting.
Timeline: How the Shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti Unfolded
A moment-by-moment analysis of video from the scene shows that Mr. Pretti was already restrained when fatal shots were fired, which appears to contradict the federal government’s account of the event.

Every Saturday I teach Ukrainian kids art. Today we reimagined the Ukrainian flag.
We drew cats, birds, and flowers in blue and yellow to show the world that the Ukrainian flag is not only about strength and resilience, but also about life and the things that make us happy.

Dallas's Department Store at 166-170 Cowcaddens St. Established by John Dallas in 1865, it was a staple of the area for clothing, fashion, and household goods until its demolition in 1973 during the comprehensive redevelopment of Cowcaddens.

Have a guid Burns Night
Then God said, “And behold, when the fourth seal was opened, there arose four upon the crest of the storm: pipes skirling doom, bellows wheezing famine, strings twanging conquest, drum thundering regret. Power given to afflict the earth with cursed reel forever.”

It's Rabbie Burns' 276th birthday. He grew up in a farming family but to make ends meet worked for Customs & Excise, where his interrogations were so fierce he became known as Third Degree Burns.*
This beautiful poem became Dick Gaughan's signature song.
