Thatcher’s resignation
No wait it was Mandella’s release - that was earlier in the same year

No wait, it was the fall of the Berlin Wall

I’m not very good at this. It was stuff that happened in about 1989/90

I wasn’t very interested in politics
Wait, does Scott and Charlene’s wedding count?

Have dusted off my Nintendo Wii and playing through Super Mario Galaxy with my 8-year-old. Extreme fun and pleasure!
Such an amazingly imaginative and charming game and surprisingly good with two players
Watching a child play a classic Nintendo game for the first time is an amazing pleasure. These games are magical. Takes me back to playing Super Mario World on my friend's imported Super Famicom in 1991 #nerd

What a shame. I was heartened to see the Golders Green mosque, which got a lot of nasty criticism from within the Jewish community when it took over the building, was organising an outreach event commemorating Muslims who helped Jews during the Holocaust. Now cancelled.

It's easy to say you're tough on illegal immigration when you know Congress won't vote for immigration reform or border security.

Today is the 218-th #birthday of the great #German #composer and #organist Eduard Grell (1800-1886). He is mostly remembered as a master composer of vocal music, in particular #churchmusic, and was noted outside #Germany. I reproduce an #obituary from..
.. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘛𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴, Vol. 27, No. 523 (Sep. 1,1886), p. 541:»On the 10th ult. [i.e. the 10th day of the last month; this being published in September, this means August 10, and this is indeed when Grell died LG,I] there died at Steglitz, near Berlin, a musician..

#Law #DomesticViolence
Indian law protects women from all kinds of domestic abuse. To know more about the provisions of Protection of Women Against Domestic Violence Act, 2005 read our explainer: bit.ly/2CMVlfS
PWDV Act, 2005, gives a broad definition of what qualifies as ‘domestic abuse’. It includes physical, sexual, verbal, emotional and economic abuse. Section 3 reads:
The Act provides for a ‘Protection Officer’ to help you through various processes under the law. This Officer can help you file the complaint, tell you about your rights, make an application to the Magistrate for you, etc.

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether
