"Americans need to educate themselves, from elementary school onward, about what their country has done abroad. And they need to play a more active role in ensuring that what the United States does abroad is not merely in keeping with a foreign policy elite's sense of realpolitik but also with the American public's own sense of American values.
Because at their core, those values are sound. That is why, even in places where you'll find virulent anti-Americanism, you'll also find enormous affection for things American."

When I speak my mouth goes up on one side more than the other. It annoys me and I sense that I look as if I am sneering when I am not.

Hearing Aid waiting list
The BBC reports that in some British NHS hospitals the waiting list time for a digital hearing aid is 200 weeks (in others it is 2 weeks...) and perhaps 4m people could benefit from an aid, but don't have one.
Not an NHS bashing - but what would the situation be elsewhere? Presumably in some countries - the US? - the waiting list for a digital hearing aid would be infinite, eg if you don't have the money you'll not get one? Does Medicare/Aid cover this over 65? What about Canada?

I'd like to set up a blog for my students to use to discuss issues regarding their study. Can anyone recommend a free to use blog which can have restricted membership? I don't want to moderate the postings. Doesn't matter if the world can read it - just don't want them to join in the chat.

Anyone have medical/anatomical knowledge to support the observation that the pelvic girdle/hips grow wider as a person ages? I don't mean getting fat - I mean literally do the bones spread outwards, increasing the hip size and so the width between the legs. I see this on old men especially

Gone postal
Another US postal worker shoots and kills work mates (ex workmates in this case.) As ever Wiki tells
all. USPO works to
eradicate the usage, but no
chance. Now so much part of the culture you can

Looking for albums by female singers with breathy voices who sing in a sort of contemporary C&W style, eg with twangy guitars and violins. Something like Shawn Colvin?
